0:00:04 > 0:00:07These 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 > 0:00:32Here they are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:33Are you feeling ready for action?
0:00:33 > 0:00:35- Absolutely.- OK.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Challenging the might of our quiz goliaths today
0:00:37 > 0:00:39are the Black Horses from Bristol.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Now, this team of friends
0:00:41 > 0:00:44all regularly quiz at the Black Horse pub
0:00:44 > 0:00:45in Clapton, in Gordano.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Let's meet them.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Hello, my name's Mark and I'm a dispensing optician.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53Hello, I'm Pauline and I'm a slimming consultant.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hello, I'm Brian and I'm an accountant.
0:00:55 > 0:01:00Hello, I'm Anne and I'm an airport taxi driver.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Hello, I'm Stefan and I'm a drama teacher.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07- So, Mark and team, thanks for coming, welcome. ALL:- Hello.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09Are you excited to quiz, Mark?
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Very, very excited. Really looking forward to it.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14- Cos you do quiz in the pub, don't you?- That's right, yes.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16We've been quizzing about three years.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Our team has been together for quite a long time,
0:01:19 > 0:01:21we're very good friends.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23The pub is an excellent pub.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25We've got a really, really good quiz master.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29- Tony, he's absolutely fantastic, isn't he?- Very good.- We love Tony.
0:01:29 > 0:01:30Oh, he's not here today?
0:01:30 > 0:01:32I thought he was going to suddenly declare himself.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34- Oh, no, no. - He'll be watching, though?
0:01:34 > 0:01:36We tell him he's rubbish, but he's very good, really.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39We had a pub team the other day who said that, during the quiz,
0:01:39 > 0:01:41people are looking it up on their phones and stuff.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44- That doesn't happen in your pub, does it?- No, it doesn't.
0:01:44 > 0:01:45Definitely not.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48And in fact, Mark was a little bit economical with the truth.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50We're actually from opposing quiz teams.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52I was drafted on, so we've got a bit of consensus,
0:01:52 > 0:01:55a bit of unity where we are divided every Tuesday night.
0:01:55 > 0:01:56I see!
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Oh, well, that makes it very exciting. Well, good luck here.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash
0:02:01 > 0:02:02up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08So, Black Horses, the Eggheads
0:02:08 > 0:02:10have got into their stride here a bit now.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14They've won the last four on the trot, if you'll excuse the pun.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16And it means £5,000 is up for grabs.
0:02:16 > 0:02:17Would you try and win it?
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- Yes, please! - Brilliant, I love the enthusiasm.
0:02:20 > 0:02:21It will serve you well, actually.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24The first head-to-head battle is on Politics.
0:02:24 > 0:02:25Now, who wants this?
0:02:25 > 0:02:27I hope I haven't wrecked your plans.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- What do you think? - Possibly... Politics, OK.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34- Well, it's got to be Stefan or Pauline.- I will happily be...
0:02:34 > 0:02:38- Shall I be the sacrificial lamb? - Do you mind?- No.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41- Pauline is going to do it.- Pauline on Politics.- Well done, Pauline.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Nicely alliterated. And which Egghead, Pauline?
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Any one of the five.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48You could give Dave a go, do you think? Dave?
0:02:48 > 0:02:52Well, Dave was so kind to us.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Dave, yes. Good idea, Dave.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58- He was kind to you earlier, was he? - Well, I'd like to play against him.
0:02:58 > 0:02:59OK, that's good.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Pauline from the Black Horses versus Dave from the Eggheads.
0:03:02 > 0:03:03To ensure there's no conferring,
0:03:03 > 0:03:06please take your positions in our famous Question Room.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10- So, good luck, Pauline here. - Thank you.- Hope you do really well.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Is politics your thing?
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Hmm, no. Not really!
0:03:15 > 0:03:19No, I'm interested in politics and I'm interested in political history,
0:03:19 > 0:03:22but whether I actually know anything is another matter.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25- Do you want to go first or second? - I think I'll go first.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30So, here is your question. Good luck, Pauline.
0:03:30 > 0:03:35The Treaty of Versailles was signed on the 28th of June, 1919,
0:03:35 > 0:03:39marking the fifth anniversary of whose assassination?
0:03:46 > 0:03:50Right, well, the Treaty of Versailles was, of course,
0:03:50 > 0:03:52the end of the First World War.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56And the thing that sparked the First World War
0:03:56 > 0:03:59was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
0:03:59 > 0:04:05So, and Tsar Nicholas II would have been killed some time 1917-ish.
0:04:05 > 0:04:06And Garibaldi, I'm not sure.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09So, yeah, I will go with Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Absolutely right, Archduke Franz Ferdinand, well done.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14First correct answer to our Challengers.
0:04:14 > 0:04:15Over to you, Dave.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18Which of these former MPs took part in
0:04:18 > 0:04:20I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here in 2014?
0:04:25 > 0:04:26- 2014?- Yes.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31Don't remember Jeffrey Archer or Vince Cable being involved.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34I do remember Edwina Currie. That's my answer.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Edwina Currie is quite right.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Back to you, Pauline.
0:04:38 > 0:04:43Who was British prime minister between 1976 and 1979?
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Harold Wilson was well gone by then.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Because it was the '70s, '74.
0:04:54 > 0:04:55'76...
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- And '79.- '76 to '79.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03'79 was when Thatcher came in, so it must be James Callaghan.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Yeah, brilliant, well done. James Callaghan.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Harold Wilson basically
0:05:08 > 0:05:10handed over to Callaghan, having won in '74.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Yes, exactly.- So he was only just gone. OK, Dave.
0:05:13 > 0:05:19Which Irish politician founded the party Fianna Fail in 1926?
0:05:24 > 0:05:27I don't believe it's Charles Parnell or Bertie Ahern,
0:05:27 > 0:05:29I think it's Eamon de Valera.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Eamon de Valera is quite right.
0:05:31 > 0:05:32Pauline, your question.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34In May 2015, who was appointed
0:05:34 > 0:05:37secretary of state for Energy and Climate Change?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Michael Gove went from Education to Justice.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Is that the woman who was also...
0:05:50 > 0:05:55..responsible for equal rights? Oh!
0:05:55 > 0:05:57I'm going to guess Sajid Javid.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Ah, you were going towards the woman and you moved away.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Sajid Javid is not the answer.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04- It is Amber Rudd.- It is Amber Rudd.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06- Sorry.- Yeah, it is Amber Rudd.- Yes.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08OK, Dave, your question to take the round.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Marie-Dominique Culioli
0:06:10 > 0:06:13and Cecilia Ciganer-Albeniz
0:06:13 > 0:06:16are former wives of which French politician?
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Right, not happy with this,
0:06:24 > 0:06:27but I'm going to rule out Charles de Gaulle
0:06:27 > 0:06:29and Francois Mitterrand
0:06:29 > 0:06:31and go Nicolas Sarkozy,
0:06:31 > 0:06:33or Nicol-ah Sarkozy.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37OK. FRENCH ACCENT: Nicolas Sarkozy is your answer.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39- Is he right, Eggheads?- He is.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41They all agree, he's right.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42Nicolas Sarkozy it is, Dave.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45You got three out of three. Sorry, Pauline.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- You've been knocked out. Don't worry, it happens...- That's OK.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50..and the Challengers still win. Come back to us, we'll play on.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54So as it stands, the Black Horses have lost one brain
0:06:54 > 0:06:55from the final round.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57The Eggheads have not lost any so far.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59And the next subject is Arts & Books.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Which of you quizzers wants this?
0:07:02 > 0:07:06- Oh!- That was Pauline's. - Pauline? Oh, no!
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Not to worry.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11- I'll take it, if you want. - Yes.- Stefan?
0:07:11 > 0:07:15- That's fine, I can do that. - Drama teacher, OK, that sounds good.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17- Against which Egghead? - Pat, do you think?- Yeah, why not?
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- Would you mind doing Pat? - No, not at all.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23- Pat then, please. - Doing Pat! How rude!
0:07:23 > 0:07:25You can do Pat, that's fine.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Stefan from the Black Horses versus our Pat from the Eggheads
0:07:28 > 0:07:31on Arts & Books. Please go to the Question Room now.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35- Well, Stefan, you are a drama teacher.- Yes, that's right.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37I thought you'd be the natural for Arts & Books.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Well, Film & TV, I'm more a popular culture sort of person
0:07:40 > 0:07:42really than a highbrow person.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44But I'll try and do my best.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Arts & Books, would you like to go first or second?
0:07:46 > 0:07:48I think I'll go first, thank you, Jeremy.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55And here we go. Which of these writers was a man?
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Well, George Eliot was a pen name.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05I forget who the actual, real...the real writer was.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Sorry, rolling my Rs.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11Stevie Smith is a poet and she was a woman.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13I think it's Laurie Lee.
0:08:13 > 0:08:14Laurie Lee is the right answer.
0:08:17 > 0:08:18Warm applause here.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19Pat, your question.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Which Shakespeare character says the line, "What's in a name?
0:08:22 > 0:08:25"That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet"?
0:08:31 > 0:08:33It's a famous quote, but I've mislaid it.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39I think on the basis of the link between roses and romance,
0:08:39 > 0:08:42I think I'll go for Juliet.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Juliet is the right answer, of course, thank you.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46OK, your question, Stefan.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50Who illustrated the bestselling children's book The Gruffalo?
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Well, I know that Terry Deary is actually an author,
0:08:57 > 0:09:00did a lot of the Horrible Histories.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04So, really it's a 50-50 between Tony Ross and Axel Scheffler.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08I'm going to go for Axel Scheffler.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09- Team, is he right? ALL:- Yes.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12You're all right. Axel Scheffler it is.
0:09:12 > 0:09:13He's very good.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Pat, which of these artists was born first?
0:09:22 > 0:09:26I can dispense with Cezanne immediately. He was 1900s.
0:09:27 > 0:09:34Let's see. Rembrandt is from the very early 1600s onwards.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39I think Titian was earlier.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41And not only do I think Titian's earlier,
0:09:41 > 0:09:44but he famously lived a very long time which gives him another edge.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46I'm going for Titian.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47Titian is correct.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Back to you, Stefan.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53For what does the second letter R stand
0:09:53 > 0:09:56in the name of the author JRR Tolkien?
0:10:01 > 0:10:05I'm really down to a guess between... Well, two of them.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07I'm going to discount Royce.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09That may well be a fatal mistake.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Just in terms of the style of name
0:10:12 > 0:10:16and maybe fitting in with the time period, I'll go for Ragford.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18OK, I saw a head fall on this side.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Is he wrong?- Yes, he's wrong.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Yeah, it's Reuel, I'm afraid.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Almost unguessable unless you know it.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29Sounds like a classic quizzy question, that. Pat, for the round.
0:10:30 > 0:10:31What is the title of the second book
0:10:31 > 0:10:34in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series?
0:10:40 > 0:10:42I think The Player Of Games...
0:10:42 > 0:10:46Well, obviously the same title can pop up
0:10:46 > 0:10:49for several different authors.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Last Chance To See, it rings a bell for
0:10:52 > 0:10:56a Stephen Fry-presented TV programme about extinctions, I think.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59So, I'm tempted at the moment by The Light Fantastic.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03I'm think I'm going to have to go down the middle,
0:11:03 > 0:11:04The Light Fantastic.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07- OK, is he right, Stefan? - He is, he is.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09Yeah, it was The Light Fantastic, well done.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Three out of three, Pat, enough to get you into the final.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Sorry, Stefan, you've been knocked out by our Egghead here.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Come back to us, rejoin your teams and we'll see what happens next.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21So, a bit of a tough time for the Black Horses here.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23They've lost two brains from the final round.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25The Eggheads have not lost any.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27And the next subject for you is Food & Drink.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30- Oh, that's one of my subjects! - Who wants this?- It's got to be Anne.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34- It's got to be Anne, then. - Which Egghead would you like, Anne?
0:11:34 > 0:11:38Well, can I pit my wits against Kevin, please, Jeremy?
0:11:38 > 0:11:40- You can indeed.- Thank you.
0:11:40 > 0:11:41So, Kevin on Food & Drink.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45OK, Anne from the Black Horses, Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Food & Drink, the subject, and the Question Room, the place.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53OK, Anne. Good luck. Would you like to go first or second, Anne?
0:11:53 > 0:11:54I'd love to go first, please.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02Annie, which sauce is a traditional accompaniment to roast lamb?
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Well, do you know what?
0:12:07 > 0:12:11Raising three boys, I've tried all sorts of things with them.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15And just to experiment, see what they like best.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19But whenever I cooked roast lamb, they always enjoyed it.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Now, I know that they wouldn't enjoy horseradish
0:12:22 > 0:12:26because it's quite a piquant sort of taste, very strong.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30So, I would probably eliminate horseradish.
0:12:30 > 0:12:36Apple, well, we always have managed to acquire loads and loads of apples
0:12:36 > 0:12:41in the autumn, and I use apple in crumbles and breakfasts
0:12:41 > 0:12:44and all sorts. Now mint...
0:12:44 > 0:12:46When I was at university,
0:12:46 > 0:12:50we used to go hiking a lot. And when we saw lambs in the field,
0:12:50 > 0:12:53just to taunt at these poor lambs and sheep,
0:12:53 > 0:12:57my hiking companions would always shout, "Mint sauce, mint sauce!"
0:12:57 > 0:13:00to terrify the lambs. And do you know what?
0:13:00 > 0:13:03The lambs always ignored them and I don't know why.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06So, I'm actually going to choose mint.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Mint is the right answer.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Poor lambs!
0:13:10 > 0:13:11Very good,
0:13:11 > 0:13:13I love the way you just circled all three
0:13:13 > 0:13:14and then suddenly landed there.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18OK, Kevin. What type of vegetable is a mangetout?
0:13:21 > 0:13:22A mangetout is a pea.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26THEY LAUGH That was a bit more matter of fact.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29- Yes!- You haven't gone around taunting peas or anything like that?
0:13:29 > 0:13:30No, no, I mean,
0:13:30 > 0:13:33there are quite a few vegetables I would like to taunt but...
0:13:33 > 0:13:36JEREMY LAUGHS
0:13:36 > 0:13:38OK, we're getting very surreal.
0:13:38 > 0:13:39Back to you, Anne.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Which British chef devised a famous signature dish
0:13:42 > 0:13:44of bacon and egg ice cream?
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Bacon and egg ice cream?
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Now, this is another,
0:13:55 > 0:13:58reminds me again when I was raising my poor boys.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02Because I had an ice cream maker and I used to make all sorts of
0:14:02 > 0:14:05different flavours of ice cream for them, and I started off
0:14:05 > 0:14:07with cauliflower flavour.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10It wasn't really, it was vanilla, but I called it cauliflower flavour
0:14:10 > 0:14:13because it frothed up like a cauliflower and these poor boys,
0:14:13 > 0:14:15they enjoyed the cauliflower ice cream.
0:14:15 > 0:14:21So, Heston Blumenthal I've heard of, but I'm not sure what he did.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25Nigella Lawson, I have great respect for her because she's about
0:14:25 > 0:14:27the same age as me and she's...
0:14:28 > 0:14:34..devised all sorts of wonderful recipes and her cakes.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Jamie Oliver, I've got great respect for him as well because he does
0:14:37 > 0:14:40so much for improving the diet
0:14:40 > 0:14:43of children in schools.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47And he makes cooking really fun.
0:14:47 > 0:14:51So, Nigella's cakes are really fun because they're fabulous cakes,
0:14:51 > 0:14:55but I don't think somehow she would experiment with
0:14:55 > 0:14:56bacon and egg ice cream.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01I think it's more of a real wacky, fun sort of thing to do.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03I'd love to know a bit more about Heston Blumenthal,
0:15:03 > 0:15:06and when I get home, I'm going to research him.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09So, I'm going to go for Jamie Oliver.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Jamie Oliver is the wrong answer.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14- Oh, what a shame! - It's Heston Blumenthal.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16So, Heston Blumenthal is the right answer, Anne, sorry.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20Over to Kevin. The French area of Camargue
0:15:20 > 0:15:23produces a red variety of which foodstuff?
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Well, Camargue is down in the...
0:15:29 > 0:15:34..right down in the south of France, it's not so very far from Marseille.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37Don't think it's flour.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40But I think, of the others,
0:15:40 > 0:15:44the Camargue is quite well known for producing, I think, rice.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49So, I shall go for rice.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Rice is correct.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53I thought he was going to slip up there, Anne.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55So, you must get this one right, OK?
0:15:56 > 0:16:00El Bulli, voted the world's best restaurant five times
0:16:00 > 0:16:04by Restaurant Magazine, was located in which part of Spain?
0:16:04 > 0:16:06It's El Bulli, B-U-L-L-I.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Well, because Costa Brava is so popular with people who like
0:16:14 > 0:16:16maybe cheap holidays,
0:16:16 > 0:16:22and Seville and Madrid have a reputation for great culture
0:16:22 > 0:16:24and history and art,
0:16:24 > 0:16:28I'm wondering if perhaps people who were more interested in the
0:16:28 > 0:16:32great culture would be interested in the fantastic restaurants.
0:16:32 > 0:16:37I hope I'm not offending half of the world's population by saying these!
0:16:37 > 0:16:42So, I think I'm going to choose between Madrid or Seville.
0:16:45 > 0:16:46I think I'll choose Seville.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49OK, let's check with Kevin. Is she right, Kevin?
0:16:49 > 0:16:53No, it's actually situated right up in the northeast of Spain -
0:16:53 > 0:16:56in Catalonia, really,
0:16:56 > 0:16:58but that's where the Costa Brava is.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02It's just inland a bit from there, so I think it's Costa Brava.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04- So, Anne, it is Costa Brava.- Oh!
0:17:04 > 0:17:06But I totally understand your logic.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08Sorry, Kevin has taken the round on Food & Drink,
0:17:08 > 0:17:10adding to his hit rate on this subject,
0:17:10 > 0:17:12which troubles him occasionally.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14And it means you won't be in the final round.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17Come back to us, we'll play one more round before the final.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21So, as it stands, the Black Horses have lost three brains
0:17:21 > 0:17:25from the final round whilst the Eggheads have not lost any.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28So, they're sitting pretty there, and you can wipe their smiles
0:17:28 > 0:17:31off their faces very, very soon now because you've got Music.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Is that going to help?
0:17:34 > 0:17:36- That's got to be me. - Mark against who?
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Judith.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41- I love playing music. - Yes, I think you like your music?
0:17:41 > 0:17:42Yes, I love music.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46Give Judith some late punk, she's on it.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50So, Mark from the Black Horses
0:17:50 > 0:17:52versus Judith the Gem from the Eggheads.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55To ensure there's no conferring, please, for the last time,
0:17:55 > 0:17:57go to the Question Room.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00On Music, Mark, would you like to go first or second?
0:18:00 > 0:18:02I'll go first, please.
0:18:05 > 0:18:10Mark, under what name did the singer born Mark MacLachlan
0:18:10 > 0:18:12find fame with the group Wet Wet Wet?
0:18:16 > 0:18:19I'll go straight to it, that's Marti Pellow.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21Yes, it is Marti Pellow. Brilliant singer, too.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Judith,
0:18:23 > 0:18:26Richard and Oscar are the first names of which composing duo?
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Oh, that's Rodgers and Hammerstein.
0:18:33 > 0:18:34- Oh, it is?- Yes.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Rodgers and Hammerstein.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38One each. Back to you, Mark.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41In which year was Justin Bieber born?
0:18:46 > 0:18:49I'm going to have to go a total guess with Justin Bieber.
0:18:51 > 0:18:521994.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55Is the right answer, well done.
0:18:55 > 0:18:56Well done.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59OK, Judith, your question.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03Which musician is associated with the acts Erasure and Yazoo?
0:19:08 > 0:19:09I'm afraid it means nothing.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13Vince Clarke.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15- Dave will know. Dave?- Yes!
0:19:15 > 0:19:18Judith is right because I knew him.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21She was very good, she was telling me about her interest
0:19:21 > 0:19:23in the Basildon scene of the '80s
0:19:23 > 0:19:26and how things had developed from there.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28So, it is Vince Clarke.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31These acts are associated with Basildon, Judith, and Dave...
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- And are they associated with Vince Clarke as well?- Yes, indeed.
0:19:34 > 0:19:35That's what I'm really wanting to know.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Dave said, although I must say, I believed him for far too long,
0:19:38 > 0:19:41that you were somebody who was yourself
0:19:41 > 0:19:42quite big on the Basildon scene.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Oh, of course.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46Regularly on the Basildon scene.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49OK!
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Anyway, she got it right.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53How unfair is that, Mark?
0:19:53 > 0:19:55I'm suffering, I'm suffering terribly.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Got a musical question for you now.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00Who wrote the song Before The Parade Passes By
0:20:00 > 0:20:02for the musical Hello, Dolly?
0:20:09 > 0:20:11I'm going to go with Cole Porter.
0:20:11 > 0:20:15- Do you know, Judith?- Well, I don't think it is Cole Porter.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17That's the one I'd have eliminated.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20- It's Jerry Herman, Mark.- OK.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23So, Judith has a chance to take the round now on Music.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27Bucks Fizz won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1981
0:20:27 > 0:20:30when the competition was held in which city?
0:20:37 > 0:20:41Erm, I don't know. Let's think.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45- London.- No.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47- London is your answer?- Yes.
0:20:47 > 0:20:48- No, the answer is Dublin.- Oh.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51So, equal after three questions, we go back to you, Mark.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Sudden Death.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55- I don't give you alternatives.- OK.
0:20:55 > 0:21:00What according to the lyrics of a Ken Dodd UK top 40 song of 1964
0:21:00 > 0:21:02is "the greatest gift that I possess"?
0:21:04 > 0:21:05Laughter.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07- No, happiness!- Oh!
0:21:07 > 0:21:09- Go on, Judith.- "Happiness!"
0:21:09 > 0:21:12- That's as far as I can go.- Lisa?
0:21:12 > 0:21:14No, I'm not doing this, make Dave do it.
0:21:14 > 0:21:15# Happiness, happiness
0:21:15 > 0:21:17# The greatest gift that I possess
0:21:17 > 0:21:21- ALL:- # I thank the Lord that I've been blessed
0:21:21 > 0:21:23# More than my share of happiness! #
0:21:23 > 0:21:25There we are, Mark!
0:21:26 > 0:21:29- It just shows our age.- OK.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Judith, this for the round, then.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36According to a poll of listeners of BBC Radio and Jazz FM,
0:21:36 > 0:21:40the results of which were revealed in November 2015,
0:21:40 > 0:21:45who was voted the greatest jazz artist of all time?
0:21:46 > 0:21:47Oh, Miles Davis.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51You've done very well, you got it right, Judith.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54You're in the final round. It was indeed Miles Davis, well done.
0:21:54 > 0:21:55- Good Lord!- Well done to you.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58- Sorry about that, Mark. - That's all right.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00I didn't think that was going to happen,
0:22:00 > 0:22:02- on a Ken Dodd song of all things. - Yes, absolutely.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06So, come back to us and we'll play the final.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08So, this is what we have been playing towards.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11It is time for the final round. As always, it's General Knowledge.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:22:14 > 0:22:16are not allowed to take part in this round.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20So, Mark, Pauline, Anne and Stefan from the Black Horses,
0:22:20 > 0:22:22would you all please now leave the studio?
0:22:24 > 0:22:26So, Brian, I'm sorry you've ended up on your own here,
0:22:26 > 0:22:30but it does happen. And actually, teams have won from this position...
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- Right.- ..relatively recently and relatively regularly as well,
0:22:33 > 0:22:35haven't they, Eggheads?
0:22:35 > 0:22:37- And you're playing to win the Black Horses £5,000.- OK.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Judith, Kevin, Dave, Lisa and Pat, you're playing for something
0:22:40 > 0:22:42that money really can't buy, I don't think,
0:22:42 > 0:22:44which is the Eggheads' precious reputation
0:22:44 > 0:22:46and to continue this streak,
0:22:46 > 0:22:48maybe even turn it into a roll.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54This time, they're all going to be general knowledge
0:22:54 > 0:22:55and you are allowed to confer.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57So sorry that doesn't help you.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Brian, the question is - can your one brain defeat these five
0:23:00 > 0:23:02in a famous victory?
0:23:02 > 0:23:05- Would you like to go first or second?- Could I go first, please?
0:23:09 > 0:23:10Here is your question.
0:23:10 > 0:23:14Brasenose College is part of which university?
0:23:20 > 0:23:22It's certainly not Edinburgh.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25I don't think it's Cambridge.
0:23:25 > 0:23:29Thinking it through, I think it's Oxford. Oxford I'll go for.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31Oxford is right. Well done, Brian.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33First one to you. Over to the Eggheads.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37In which city did Frank Lampard and Christine Bleakley marry
0:23:37 > 0:23:38in December 2015?
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Was it LA or did they come home?
0:23:45 > 0:23:49That's a bit of a difficult one. Cos he played for...
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Didn't he play for the other side?
0:23:52 > 0:23:55- He played in New York, didn't he? - I don't think he played in LA.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- He played in New York, didn't he?- Yeah.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00He was playing in New York.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04Now, I don't think it's an American...
0:24:04 > 0:24:07- Has he got a house in France? - No. But he's got...
0:24:07 > 0:24:12- He went out with Elen Rives, who was French but...- She's Spanish.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16Spanish, sorry. So, rule that out. It's either London or LA.
0:24:16 > 0:24:17I remember them getting married.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20I don't remember there being anything startling about the city.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26There was a lot of preparation that went into it.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28They were getting married, big hotel.
0:24:28 > 0:24:32- Oh, was it a Claridge's wedding? Ooh, ooh.- OK.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36Ooh, hang on, I couldn't swear to that so that might be a red herring.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- I'll go London. - I would be with you, Dave.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42I don't think there's a particular reason
0:24:42 > 0:24:44why they'd get married in LA.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47- I'd be with you.- I'd go London. - OK, let's do that.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50- All right with that, Judith? - Is that all right with you, Judith?
0:24:50 > 0:24:54- I've no idea.- I can't see LA being special for...- Not the faintest.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Let's go for it.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58We've had been all round the houses, Jeremy,
0:24:58 > 0:25:00but we're going to go for London.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03- Do you know the answer?- I don't.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07I would guess Los Angeles, but...just a guess.
0:25:07 > 0:25:08London is the right answer.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11Your question, Brian.
0:25:11 > 0:25:15Which former EastEnders actress played Maria in a 2015
0:25:15 > 0:25:18live TV version of The Sound Of Music?
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Right. Not sure.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31I don't think it's Martine McCutcheon.
0:25:31 > 0:25:36I'm just looking to think whether it's Jessie Wallace or Kara Tointon.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Kara's been in Strictly.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46Oh, I'm really, really not sure.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Yeah, struggling to get a grip on this one.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58I think it's coming to guessing time here, Jeremy.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00I'm really not sure at the moment, erm...
0:26:04 > 0:26:08I'll guess at Martine McCutcheon.
0:26:08 > 0:26:09And it is a guess.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12The answer is Kara Tointon.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15- Sorry, Brian.- No, that's OK.
0:26:15 > 0:26:16Eggheads,
0:26:16 > 0:26:19how old was Florence Nightingale when she died?
0:26:23 > 0:26:25- 90, yeah?- Was she?
0:26:25 > 0:26:29- Wrinkly old lady.- 1820 to 1910. - 1820 to 1910.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31Okey doke.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33Ashman's Almanac says Florence Nightingale's dates
0:26:33 > 0:26:36are 1820 to 1910, which would have made her 90.
0:26:36 > 0:26:3890 is right.
0:26:38 > 0:26:39Brian, back to you,
0:26:39 > 0:26:41you've got to get this one right.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43What is the second-largest Canary Island?
0:26:49 > 0:26:50Oh!
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Gran Canaria, right.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Let's have a think about this a minute.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57Second-largest.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02Lanzarote, Fuerteventura.
0:27:02 > 0:27:03Well, I've not been to any of them,
0:27:03 > 0:27:06so it's purely basing it off the map
0:27:06 > 0:27:08in terms of size.
0:27:10 > 0:27:14Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria. Right, OK.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Gran Canaria is one of the biggest islands,
0:27:16 > 0:27:19I just can't work out whether it's the biggest island.
0:27:23 > 0:27:24OK.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28I'm going to go for Gran Canaria.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32- OK, so Gran Canaria as the second-largest.- Yes.
0:27:32 > 0:27:33Is it the biggest, Gran Canaria?
0:27:33 > 0:27:36- Help us, Eggs.- Tenerife. - Tenerife's the biggest.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38Tenerife is the biggest, and the second-biggest?
0:27:38 > 0:27:39Should be Gran Canaria.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41You think Gran Canaria is the second-largest,
0:27:41 > 0:27:43so they agree with you.
0:27:43 > 0:27:44The answer is Fuerteventura.
0:27:46 > 0:27:47OK.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Interesting. Well, it's some comfort that the Eggheads
0:27:50 > 0:27:53might well have got that wrong themselves.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55But, Brian, that's it.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58I have to say congratulations, Eggheads. You have won.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06And I know you're a great quizzer and you've got 35 quiz books
0:28:06 > 0:28:09- and everything else and we didn't see the best of you there.- No.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11Don't worry, these questions are...
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Well, random doesn't even begin to describe it.
