0:00:29 > 0:00:31they are the Eggheads.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33- And here you are... EGGHEADS:- Yes. - ..in your finery,

0:00:33 > 0:00:36- Barry especially.- Thank you.

0:00:36 > 0:00:37Deckchair, was it?

0:00:49 > 0:00:51Let's meet them.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54Hello, I'm Jonathan, and I'm a contract manager.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56Hello, I'm Martin, and I'm a civil servant.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00Hello, I'm Frannie, I'm a retired telecommunications engineer.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hello, I'm Sara, I'm a retired nurse practitioner.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07Hello, I'm Mike, I'm a theatre lighting designer.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09So, Jonathan, team, welcome.

0:01:09 > 0:01:10- Hello.- Good to see you.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13- Ah, I detect a bit of South African there, Jonathan.- Yeah, yeah.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15- I'm from South Africa, from Cape Town.- OK.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18Tell us about the church, tell us about St Margaret's.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21St Margaret's, it's a Catholic church in Dunfermline.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24Very vibrant, we have a fantastic community

0:01:24 > 0:01:26and we really get on well with each other.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29We don't quiz so much together but we pray a lot together

0:01:29 > 0:01:31- and we might need that today... - JEREMY LAUGHS

0:01:31 > 0:01:34- ..but let's see how it goes. - Was Margaret a significant figure?

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Oh, most definitely. She was St Margaret and also Queen Margaret,

0:01:37 > 0:01:38some people don't realise that.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41It's Queen Margaret married to King Malcolm.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43- So, it's an important church? - Very much so, yeah.

0:01:43 > 0:01:47And why I'm here is I'm actually part of a massive team

0:01:47 > 0:01:49building a new bridge across the Forth

0:01:49 > 0:01:52and St Margaret actually instituted the first ferry

0:01:52 > 0:01:55to bring pilgrims across to Dunfermline, across the Forth.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58- How amazing.- So, that was the 11th century,

0:01:58 > 0:02:01this is the 21st century, we're building a motorway now.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03- Same issues, yeah.- But the same issues, yeah.- Good stuff.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06Well, listen, good luck to you. A lively team, I can tell.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs

0:02:09 > 0:02:10for our Challengers.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12If they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:02:12 > 0:02:15the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17Now, St Margaret's, I can tell you the Eggheads have won

0:02:17 > 0:02:20the last three games, they're putting together a bit of a streak.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23It means £4,000 says you can't beat them today.

0:02:23 > 0:02:24Would you like to have a go?

0:02:24 > 0:02:26- We'll have that.- OTHERS:- Yeah. - Prayer first or straight in?

0:02:28 > 0:02:30- Straight in?- Let's go straight in. - The prayer comes later.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33OK. So, the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Science.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36- Who would like this?- OK, science, that's a good one for us.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38- Mike, you're up.- I will.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40- Yeah, we'll have Mike up for that. - Mike on the end.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42OK, theatre lighting designer against...

0:02:42 > 0:02:45- which Egghead?- Dave, I think, yeah?

0:02:45 > 0:02:46We'll go against Dave, please.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48Very good. So, Mike from St Margaret's...

0:02:48 > 0:02:50- Tremendous Knowledge Dave. - ..versus...

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Exactly, Tremendous Knowledge Dave, from the Eggheads.

0:02:53 > 0:02:54To ensure there's no conferring,

0:02:54 > 0:02:57would you please take your positions in the Question Room?

0:02:58 > 0:03:01OK, Mike, do you want to go first or second on Science?

0:03:01 > 0:03:02First, please.

0:03:05 > 0:03:06Here we go.

0:03:06 > 0:03:10What is 70% of 70? Is it...

0:03:14 > 0:03:15It's 49.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17It is indeed 49, well done.

0:03:17 > 0:03:18Dave, your question.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21German measles is the common name

0:03:21 > 0:03:23for which disease? Is that...

0:03:27 > 0:03:28It's rubella.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31It is rubella, Dave, well done. 1-1.

0:03:31 > 0:03:32Back to you, Mike.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35Lipizzaner is a breed of which animal?

0:03:38 > 0:03:41- Lipi...- I'll spell it for you, shall I? L-I-P-I-Z-Z-A-N-E-R.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44A Lipizzaner is a breed of horse.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Oh! You said that with such conviction,

0:03:46 > 0:03:48I thought you probably had one at home.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52- My daughter has.- Really? JEREMY LAUGHS

0:03:52 > 0:03:55What, you said to her one day, "Would you like a Lipizzaner?"

0:03:55 > 0:03:58Er, no, not quite.

0:03:58 > 0:03:59How amazing.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Well, that's one way of knowing it.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05Dave, which organ of the body becomes inflamed

0:04:05 > 0:04:07in the condition known as nephritis?

0:04:10 > 0:04:13Nephritis is inflammation of the kidneys.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16It is indeed inflammation of the kidneys, well done.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18So, you've got two each. We're cracking along here.

0:04:18 > 0:04:23Mike, your question. The malar bone is another name for which bone?

0:04:28 > 0:04:31I'll go for the lower jaw.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33OK, let me see if our Eggheads know this. Eggheads?

0:04:33 > 0:04:35It's the cheekbone.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38Cheekbone is the answer.

0:04:38 > 0:04:39So, Dave has a chance

0:04:39 > 0:04:41to take the round.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44The British scientist Frederick Sanger

0:04:44 > 0:04:48was twice awarded the Nobel prize in which category, Dave?

0:04:52 > 0:04:56I hope, Barry... Barry told me this.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59We have conversations about this all the time.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01Have I remembered the right one?

0:05:01 > 0:05:02Chemistry.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07Barry's doing his fist pump.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09- Yes, I'm happy with that answer. - He's happy with it.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Chemistry's correct. Well done, Dave, you're in the final.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13Sorry, Mike.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17The horse answer was inspired but I'm afraid you have been knocked out

0:05:17 > 0:05:19by our own Tremendous Knowledge Dave.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Please return to us, we'll play on.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25Well, this doesn't feel right, St Margaret's have lost a brain.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27The Eggheads are still intact over here

0:05:27 > 0:05:30and our next subject is Film & TV.

0:05:30 > 0:05:31So, who would like this?

0:05:31 > 0:05:32Film & TV -

0:05:32 > 0:05:35- that's you, Frannie. You're up for that.- Yeah.- Frannie?

0:05:35 > 0:05:37- Yeah, I'll do that.- OK.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39He's probably not our best one but...

0:05:39 > 0:05:40He's going to be our sacrificial lamb.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- Yeah, exactly.- Oh, OK.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44So, Frannie, against which Egghead,

0:05:44 > 0:05:46and it can't, obviously, be Dave?

0:05:46 > 0:05:48THEY CONFER

0:05:48 > 0:05:50- Who do you reckon?- OK, Pat.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52OK, we'll go with Pat, Jeremy.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Sow, it's going to be Frannie, from St Margaret's,

0:05:55 > 0:05:57against Pat from St Eggheads.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59- Yes.- Please go to the Question Room now.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04Film & TV, Frannie, would you like to go first or second?

0:06:04 > 0:06:06I'll go first, thanks, Jeremy.

0:06:09 > 0:06:10Here we go, good luck.

0:06:10 > 0:06:15The 2015 film Southpaw starring Jake Gyllenhaal

0:06:15 > 0:06:17is set in the world of which sport?

0:06:20 > 0:06:24Southpaw? Sounds like boxing to me, So I'll go for boxing.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27Bang on, boxing it is.

0:06:27 > 0:06:28Your question, Pat.

0:06:28 > 0:06:29What is the profession

0:06:29 > 0:06:34of Channing Tatum's character in the film 21 Jump Street?

0:06:37 > 0:06:39I haven't seen the film.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42It might be one of these cop buddy movies

0:06:42 > 0:06:44but I haven't seen the film and I'm not really confident.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50I'm going to have to go with policeman.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Yeah, policeman's right.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54There are two of them and I've seen them both

0:06:54 > 0:06:56and they're very, very funny, I can report.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58OK, your question, Frannie.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Which actor plays the role of Cardinal Richelieu

0:07:01 > 0:07:04in the BBC series The Musketeers?

0:07:08 > 0:07:10I don't think it's... I haven't seen it all.

0:07:12 > 0:07:15I'll go for the Scots guy, Peter Capaldi.

0:07:15 > 0:07:16HE LAUGHS It's a good way of choosing

0:07:16 > 0:07:18cos you're right, Peter Capaldi it is.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23So, you have two. Let's see if Pat can catch up.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26The Scottish firefighter Stevie McCrorie

0:07:26 > 0:07:29was the winner of which TV show in 2015?

0:07:33 > 0:07:34I think I saw this chap...

0:07:36 > 0:07:40..and he was singing, I think, so I'll go for The Voice.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42It is indeed The Voice, Pat, well done.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45You've got a fantastic memory for that kind of thing.

0:07:45 > 0:07:46Two points each.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Sorry, you haven't shaken him off yet, Frannie.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Get this one right, maybe this'll do it.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54Hazel Adair and Peter Ling created which British soap opera,

0:07:54 > 0:07:56which first aired in 1964?

0:08:01 > 0:08:05I don't think it's The Archers. My wife listens to it all the time.

0:08:05 > 0:08:09So, between Emmerdale or Crossroads, I'll go for Crossroads.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12Crossroads is correct, you're a good quizzer.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16Three out of three. OK, Pat,

0:08:16 > 0:08:18if you get this wrong, you are out.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22The 1971 film The Panic In Needle Park

0:08:22 > 0:08:26was a breakthrough role for which actor who played the male lead?

0:08:32 > 0:08:33I think I know this.

0:08:33 > 0:08:38I think it was a breakthrough for Al Pacino.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Al Pacino's the right answer. Three out of three, well done.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44So, the scores are level. We go now to Sudden Death.

0:08:44 > 0:08:45Just to make it that bit harder,

0:08:45 > 0:08:48these questions are not multiple-choice.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50OK, Frannie, who played the title role

0:08:50 > 0:08:55in the 1999 Hollywood comedy film Bowfinger?

0:08:55 > 0:08:581999 Hollywood comedy?

0:08:59 > 0:09:00I can't think of one.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04Bowfinger.

0:09:04 > 0:09:05Steve Martin.

0:09:05 > 0:09:06Steve Martin is correct.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10- HE LAUGHS - Get in there, Frannie!

0:09:11 > 0:09:14- Was that just a total stab in the dark?- Absolutely, yeah.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17That was nicely done.

0:09:18 > 0:09:19That was really good.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22OK, let's see if you can stay in, Pat.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26Which actor utters the well-known line, "Worth waiting for,"

0:09:26 > 0:09:29in the 1958 film Ice Cold In Alex?

0:09:29 > 0:09:34Hm...they're in the beat-up vehicle and they struggle across the desert

0:09:34 > 0:09:37and they're dying for beer,

0:09:37 > 0:09:40which I think they eventually get in Alexandria.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43I think... The only actor I can think of is John Mills.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45Well done, it is John Mills.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47Captain Anson...

0:09:47 > 0:09:48downed his beer in one.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51OK, Sudden Death we're on. Frannie, your question.

0:09:51 > 0:09:57On what date, a pun on a famous Star Wars quote,

0:09:57 > 0:10:01is the annual Star Wars Day celebrated?

0:10:01 > 0:10:02What date? OK.

0:10:04 > 0:10:0531st of March.

0:10:05 > 0:10:06HE LAUGHS

0:10:06 > 0:10:09That would be a needle in a haystack.

0:10:09 > 0:10:11No, that's not correct.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13- Alec Guinness says, "May the force be with you,"...- Oh, right.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15- ..and it's May the fourth.- Ah!

0:10:15 > 0:10:17That's the way.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20So, Pat has a chance now to take the round.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Which US TV series, first shown in 2013

0:10:23 > 0:10:25and starring Taylor Schilling,

0:10:25 > 0:10:29is based on the memoirs of Piper Kerman?

0:10:29 > 0:10:31I think that sounds like...

0:10:32 > 0:10:34..Orange Is The New Black.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37Based on Piper's memoirs, Orange Is The New Black,

0:10:37 > 0:10:39you're quite right. She spent a year in prison - based on that,

0:10:39 > 0:10:42very funny as well. Pat, well done, you're in the final.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Sorry, Frannie, you played brilliantly there.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46I'm really sorry you got knocked out.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49Please come back and we'll play the next round.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52OK, St Margaret's have gone down another brain.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54I'm afraid the Eggheads are still sitting there,

0:10:54 > 0:10:57haven't lost any but let's play on with hope in our hearts.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00- We have, we have.- The next subject is Politics.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04- Who would like this?- That's Martin.

0:11:04 > 0:11:07- Martin.- I think I'm up by default.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09OK, Martin, good stuff.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Often find it difficult to find people to play Politics, actually.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14So, now, who would you like, Martin, from this side?

0:11:14 > 0:11:16- Who do we think?- Who do you reckon, guys?

0:11:16 > 0:11:19- Judith?- OK.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21- Jeremy, we're going to go for Judith.- Great stuff.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24So, Martin from St Margaret's versus Judith from the Eggheads.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26Martin is the organist in the church.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28- Oh, really?- Yeah.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31- So, we'll find out about that in a second.- Why isn't he doing music?

0:11:31 > 0:11:32Well, it hasn't come up.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35- I'm not a very good organist. - HE LAUGHS

0:11:37 > 0:11:40OK, please go to the Question Room now.

0:11:42 > 0:11:43Well, Martin, I'm sure you were being modest

0:11:43 > 0:11:45about your organ playing there.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49You can get away with a remarkable small amount of talent

0:11:49 > 0:11:51and I've been doing that for the last ten years.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54- But you play at St Margaret's? - Yes, I do.- Fantastic.

0:11:54 > 0:11:58And is it a lusty congregation as far as the singing's concerned?

0:11:58 > 0:12:03I try to choose the most rousing hymns and...

0:12:03 > 0:12:07It's always unnerving when you start playing and then no-one comes in,

0:12:07 > 0:12:09so I avoid that as much as possible.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13OK. Well, good luck in this round, you're up against Judith.

0:12:13 > 0:12:17And would you like to go first or second on Politics, Martin?

0:12:17 > 0:12:19I'd like to go first and get it over with.

0:12:23 > 0:12:24So, here is your question.

0:12:24 > 0:12:27The MP Philip Hammond is a member of which political party?

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Well, it's definitely a name that I recognise.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39Erm.... I don't think he's Labour.

0:12:39 > 0:12:43Er... I'm going to go with Conservative.

0:12:43 > 0:12:47I'm very glad you did, you're quite right. Yeah, he's a Conservative.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48OK, Judith, your question.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50Which of these Labour politicians

0:12:50 > 0:12:53was born in the 1950s?

0:12:57 > 0:12:59Oh, I've got to do maths now.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02So, they're between 55 and 65.

0:13:03 > 0:13:08I think Ed Miliband is younger than that and so is Ed Balls.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10I think it must be Harriet Harman, who's a bit older.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12- Yes, it's Harriet Harman, well done. - Yeah.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15Martin, back to you with your second question.

0:13:15 > 0:13:19Wilson was the middle name of which of these US presidents?

0:13:23 > 0:13:28Well, usually you tend to find if they've got a middle name

0:13:28 > 0:13:30they'll use the initial

0:13:30 > 0:13:34and I don't remember any of these having the word W.

0:13:34 > 0:13:39OK, it's not Richard Nixon cos he was M - Richard M Nixon.

0:13:40 > 0:13:45Er... So Gerald Ford or Ronald Reagan.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48I'm going to go with Gerald Ford.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51- No, it's actually Ronald Reagan. - Is it really?

0:13:51 > 0:13:53You're completely right about Nixon.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Nixon was Milhous, I think.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58But, yes, Ronald Wilson Reagan, Martin.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01So, Judith,

0:14:01 > 0:14:03your chance to take the lead.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06In 2015, which of these England footballers

0:14:06 > 0:14:09announced his bid to stand as the Tory candidate

0:14:09 > 0:14:12in the next London mayoral election?

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Oh, dearie me.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21TORY candidate?

0:14:21 > 0:14:24I should have thought footballers would all be Labour.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26THEY CHUCKLE

0:14:26 > 0:14:29What, with the amount of money they earn?

0:14:30 > 0:14:33I think it might be Tony Adams. I really don't know.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35- What?- OK, Tony Adams.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37Sorry, there's...there is laughter in the studio

0:14:37 > 0:14:39but I don't want you to worry about that.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41What is it about?

0:14:41 > 0:14:43- It was about your answer.- Oh.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45- The answer is Sol Campbell.- Oh.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48OK, Martin, your question. That was a bit of luck, wasn't it?

0:14:48 > 0:14:51- It certainly was.- Let's see if I can find another sport one for Judith.

0:14:51 > 0:14:52Oh, yes, please!

0:14:55 > 0:14:58The consideration of amendments to a new bill

0:14:58 > 0:15:04by the Houses of Lords and Commons is sometimes given which nickname?

0:15:08 > 0:15:10Quid pro quo is...

0:15:12 > 0:15:14..well, obviously, it's Latin

0:15:14 > 0:15:17but I don't think it's anything to do with the House of Lords.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20To and fro or ping pong.

0:15:20 > 0:15:26It seems a bit unusual term to use for parliament.

0:15:26 > 0:15:27Erm...

0:15:28 > 0:15:30I'm going to go with...

0:15:32 > 0:15:33..to and fro.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35I think this is quite difficult.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37I've got ping pong here as the answer.

0:15:37 > 0:15:41So, Martin, you've got it wrong, I'm afraid. The answer is ping pong.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44But we go to Judith to see if Judith will take the round.

0:15:44 > 0:15:49In June 2000, Tony Blair was heckled and slow-handclapped

0:15:49 > 0:15:52by which organisation at their annual conference at Wembley?

0:15:56 > 0:15:58That was the Women's Institute.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01Yes, it was and there was a picture of some of the faces in the audience

0:16:01 > 0:16:04afterwards in Private Eye with the caption,

0:16:04 > 0:16:06"Do you recognise any of these women?

0:16:06 > 0:16:07"If so, ring Alastair Campbell."

0:16:10 > 0:16:12Women's Institute is the right answer,

0:16:12 > 0:16:14so you've just taken the round there.

0:16:14 > 0:16:18Sorry, Martin, Judith has just got you on the corner at the end there.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21- I knew that one.- Yeah, I know.

0:16:21 > 0:16:22I know, I know. It's always the way.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25Please come back, one more round before the final.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29Right. Well, St Margaret's have lost three brains,

0:16:29 > 0:16:34the Eggheads are still intact over here and the next subject is Sport.

0:16:34 > 0:16:37So there should be questions about politics now.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Who from St Margaret's?

0:16:39 > 0:16:42None of us would like Sport. Absolutely none of us.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45You're a South African, come on! You love sport.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48I love taking part in sport but I do not watch sport.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Anyway, it's going to have to be myself.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52All right. So, Sara will be kept for the final round.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54Sara will be the brain.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56So, Jonathan from St Margaret's against which Egghead?

0:16:56 > 0:16:58And you can have either Barry or Chris.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02- What do you reckon? Barry? - THEY CONFER

0:17:02 > 0:17:04- Chris.- Yeah, Chris.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06OK, we'll go against Chris, please, Jeremy.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09- Yeah, it could be a good choice there, Chris.- Could be, could be.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11Although he's got his rugby jersey on, so I'm thinking...

0:17:11 > 0:17:13Yeah.

0:17:13 > 0:17:14Don't let looks fool you!

0:17:14 > 0:17:16I learnt commenting on Chris's clothes

0:17:16 > 0:17:18is a very, very short cul-de-sac.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21You don't ever come out.

0:17:21 > 0:17:25So, it's Jonathan from St Margaret's versus Chris, in the rugby shirt,

0:17:25 > 0:17:28from the Eggheads. Please go to our Question Room now.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32Now, I know you're from South Africa, Jonathan,

0:17:32 > 0:17:35- as we mentioned and you're a runner as well?- Yeah, that's correct.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38Yeah, I love my running, cycling... You name it.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40So, how many runs have you done? How many marathons?

0:17:40 > 0:17:45Marathons, I've never counted but I'm over 100.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48- INCREDULOUSLY: Really? - Yeah, including ultra marathons.

0:17:48 > 0:17:49Which are how long?

0:17:49 > 0:17:53Well, ultra marathons, anything longer than the marathon distance.

0:17:53 > 0:17:57- So, anything longer than 26, that's an ultra.- Wonderful, wonderful.

0:17:57 > 0:17:58OK. So, we're on Sport here.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00I think it's ideal for you but you're telling me

0:18:00 > 0:18:03you're not...you're maybe not well-prepped on this.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06We were definitely all hoping the Sport round mustn't come up.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09But anyway, if you ask me politics questions, I might have a chance.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12Judging on the previous, it might be questions about the London mayor.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15- Yeah.- Anyway, would you like to go first or second?

0:18:15 > 0:18:17I'll take the... It hasn't been good for us yet

0:18:17 > 0:18:20but I'll stick with the first round, please.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26And here is your first question, Jonathan, good luck.

0:18:26 > 0:18:31Raheem Sterling, born in 1994, is a famous name in which sport?

0:18:35 > 0:18:38That's a tough question, that one, for me already.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40This is unbelievable, first question.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43Erm, I'm thinking it sort of sounds a little bit Indian

0:18:43 > 0:18:45or something to that nature.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47I'll go with cricket.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49Yeah, I was worried that was going to happen

0:18:49 > 0:18:52cos the name, understandably, led you astray.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54- Football is the answer.- Who knew?

0:18:54 > 0:18:56I'm afraid you're wrong.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00OK, Chris, which of these boxers retired from the sport in 2015?

0:19:04 > 0:19:07Er... Bom, bom, bom-bom, bom, bom.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11Carl Froch is still fighting.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14I don't think Joe Calzaghe's

0:19:14 > 0:19:16retired, so it's Ricky Hatton.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19No, he retired a while back. Carl Froch is the one.

0:19:19 > 0:19:20- Oh, right.- OK.

0:19:22 > 0:19:23Jonathan,

0:19:23 > 0:19:25which tennis player won the ladies' doubles

0:19:25 > 0:19:28and mixed doubles titles at Wimbledon in 2015?

0:19:32 > 0:19:36OK, I'm thinking I actually watched this doubles

0:19:36 > 0:19:39and I'm going for Martina Hingis on that one.

0:19:39 > 0:19:40Well done you, you're right.

0:19:40 > 0:19:44- Martina Hingis. There we are, you see?- That was brilliant.

0:19:44 > 0:19:45So, Chris, your question.

0:19:45 > 0:19:46What was the time

0:19:46 > 0:19:51set by Steve Redgrave's team in the final of the men's coxless four

0:19:51 > 0:19:53at the 2000 Olympics?

0:20:01 > 0:20:03Well, it'd help if we knew what distance it was rowed over,

0:20:03 > 0:20:05wouldn't it? Erm...

0:20:05 > 0:20:11Well, assuming it's a kilometre course, coxless four would do...

0:20:12 > 0:20:14..5 minutes 56 seconds.

0:20:14 > 0:20:185:56 is correct. Good stuff.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20So look, Jonathan, I know I said it's going well

0:20:20 > 0:20:21but you're level-pegging here.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25- No, no, rock on, this is good. - It could work for you.

0:20:25 > 0:20:26Here's your question.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Which snooker professional,

0:20:28 > 0:20:32who previously reached a ranking high of number five

0:20:32 > 0:20:37was found guilty of seven counts of match fixing in September 2013?

0:20:41 > 0:20:45Well, the only name that I at all recognise is Maguire.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49I'm going to go Sean Maguire.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52The answer is Stephen Lee, I'm sorry to say.

0:20:52 > 0:20:53- OK.- Sorry for him as well.

0:20:54 > 0:20:59Right, Chris, to take the round.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03In 1895, which cricketer scored the first quadruple century

0:21:03 > 0:21:07in first-class cricket whilst playing for Lancashire?

0:21:11 > 0:21:13Well, Jack Hobbs played for Surrey...

0:21:15 > 0:21:18- ..so it's either Archie... Playing for Lancashire, you say?- Yeah.

0:21:18 > 0:21:22- Albert Trott.- Albert Trott is the wrong answer.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25- It's Archie MacLaren.- Oh, trust me.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27So, you've both got one...

0:21:28 > 0:21:30And there we are, Jonathan.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33- I won't say it's working out for... - Clash of the titans here.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35You're still in there. You're still in with a shout.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38- We go to Sudden Death, it gets a bit harder...- Yeah. A BIT harder?

0:21:38 > 0:21:40..you can imagine that.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42And it means that I don't give you alternative answers.

0:21:42 > 0:21:43So, here we go, good luck.

0:21:43 > 0:21:50Lutalo Muhammad has represented Great Britain in which martial art?

0:21:50 > 0:21:52It sounds as if it's got a sort of boxing ring to it

0:21:52 > 0:21:53but that's not martial art.

0:21:55 > 0:21:58What have you got? Kung fu, taekwondo.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03I'm going to go for taekwondo.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05You're right!

0:22:06 > 0:22:08- Can you believe it!- Well done, you.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10So, you have the advantage now - Sudden Death.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12Chris' question.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15If you get this wrong, Chris, you are out

0:22:15 > 0:22:17and I know that's going to hurt.

0:22:17 > 0:22:21Which boxer changed his nickname to The Alien

0:22:21 > 0:22:24on account of his incredible longevity,

0:22:24 > 0:22:27which saw him fighting for a world championship title

0:22:27 > 0:22:30in November 2014, aged 49?

0:22:37 > 0:22:39- Tim Witherspoon.- Tim Witherspoon is the wrong answer,

0:22:39 > 0:22:40it's Bernard Hopkins.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Well done, Jonathan, you've triumphed

0:22:43 > 0:22:45on Sport.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48- Thank you, St Margaret!- Yeah!

0:22:48 > 0:22:50And you put in some great answers there, Jonathan,

0:22:50 > 0:22:52no doubt you deserve to win.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54So, Chris has been knocked out, you are in the final.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57If you both come back to us, we will play the final round.

0:22:59 > 0:23:00So, this is what we have been playing towards.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02It is time for the final round,

0:23:02 > 0:23:04which, as always, is General Knowledge,

0:23:04 > 0:23:06but I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:23:06 > 0:23:07won't be allowed to take part.

0:23:07 > 0:23:11So, that is Martin, Frannie and Mike from St Margaret's

0:23:11 > 0:23:13and also Chris from the Eggheads.

0:23:13 > 0:23:15Would you please now leave the studio?

0:23:17 > 0:23:21Jonathan and Sara, you are playing to win St Margaret's £4,000.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24Eggheads, you are playing for something which money cannot buy,

0:23:24 > 0:23:26which is your precious reputation.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32This time the questions are all General Knowledge

0:23:32 > 0:23:34and you are allowed to confer. OK?

0:23:34 > 0:23:37So, St Margaret's, the question is - are your two brains able

0:23:37 > 0:23:40to take down these four?

0:23:40 > 0:23:43- Your two brains plus a little help, if you know...- Help.- Help, yeah.

0:23:43 > 0:23:44Divine inspiration.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46So, Sara, would you like to go first or second?

0:23:46 > 0:23:47First, please, Jeremy.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Here we go.

0:23:53 > 0:23:56Pomme de terre is the French name for which vegetable?

0:23:59 > 0:24:00That's definitely potato.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02Potato is the right answer. Well done.

0:24:02 > 0:24:04- Bang on.- First point to you.

0:24:04 > 0:24:06Over to our Eggheads we go.

0:24:06 > 0:24:10In Greek mythology, who was god of the underworld?

0:24:13 > 0:24:15- ALL:- Hades.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18Yes, we are all happy with Hades.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20Hades is the right answer.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22One point each. Back to you. Final round.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24£4,000 is the jackpot.

0:24:24 > 0:24:28James is the real first name of which of The Beatles?

0:24:32 > 0:24:34- The real name.- The real name.

0:24:34 > 0:24:38- Oh, God. Cos Ringo wasn't Ringo's real name, obviously.- No.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41- Definitely no.- No, his real name is Richard.

0:24:41 > 0:24:42- Oh, is it?- Yeah, Richard Starkey.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45- So, it's not Ringo.- OK, so Ringo Starr, we are discounting.

0:24:45 > 0:24:46Uh...

0:24:46 > 0:24:49- If I had to pick one of them, I'd pick Paul McCartney.- Really?

0:24:49 > 0:24:51Yeah, if I get it wrong, I get... Oh.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53It's definitely not Ringo Starr.

0:24:53 > 0:24:57- Paul McCartney is such a good name. - Yeah, but his...

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Did he change his whole name?

0:24:59 > 0:25:02Cos his brother is called Mike McGear.

0:25:02 > 0:25:03So, James McGear.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06- That sounds quite good.- Yeah. So...?

0:25:06 > 0:25:07Sounds sort of Scottish.

0:25:08 > 0:25:10No, he's Liverpudlian.

0:25:10 > 0:25:12- That's what I think. - THEY LAUGH

0:25:12 > 0:25:15- Um...- Paul McCartney. Let's do it.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17OK, we'll go with Paul McCartney, please, Jeremy.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19Let's ask the Eggheads. Are they right?

0:25:19 > 0:25:21- ALL:- Yes.- Yes, you are right.

0:25:21 > 0:25:22Paul McCartney it was.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24- So, Ringo Starr was Richard Starkey.- Yes.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26Yeah, and George Harrison, just George Harrison.

0:25:26 > 0:25:27That was his real name.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29- So, well done. Well done.- Phew!

0:25:29 > 0:25:30Well done. Two out of two.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32Over now to our Eggheads.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34Larry Lamb became the editor

0:25:34 > 0:25:37of which national newspaper in 1969?

0:25:39 > 0:25:42- Sun.- I thought the Sun.- Sun, definitely.- We all happy with that?

0:25:42 > 0:25:46- Then he got knighted.- We all believe he was the editor of the Sun.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48Yes, indeed he was. The Sun.

0:25:48 > 0:25:50Two-two. OK.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52Get this one right and rattle them.

0:25:52 > 0:25:53Put the pressure on.

0:25:53 > 0:25:57The cricketer Kepler Wessels played international cricket

0:25:57 > 0:26:00for South Africa and which other country?

0:26:05 > 0:26:07- I think he came to England. - Do you think so?

0:26:07 > 0:26:09Well, a lot of South Africans came to England to play.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11And a lot of South Africans went

0:26:11 > 0:26:13to Australia to live.

0:26:13 > 0:26:14New Zealand, I'm kind of

0:26:14 > 0:26:16- discounting that.- Yeah.

0:26:16 > 0:26:17I'm really not happy we got a sports

0:26:17 > 0:26:19question in this final round.

0:26:19 > 0:26:20That's not on.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22I think we will go with England.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24OK, so, we will go with England, please, Jeremy.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26England is your answer.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28If you've got it right, you are in a great situation.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31- Eggheads, are they right?- No. - Australia.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33THEY GROAN Australia. It's Australia,

0:26:33 > 0:26:37but you are not out. You may be down, you're not out.

0:26:37 > 0:26:38We are not out.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40Eggheads, if you get this right, the contest is over.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43If you don't, we go to Sudden Death.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46A brig is a sailing vessel with how many masts?

0:26:49 > 0:26:51- I thought a brig had two.- Two.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53I thought it was two.

0:26:53 > 0:26:55How many has a schooner got?

0:26:55 > 0:27:00- Cos you've got...- It's certainly not four.- It's not four. Is a ketch one?

0:27:00 > 0:27:03- A brig is quite a small vessel. - I thought it was two.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05- What do you think, Pat? - I'm not sure.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08- I think it's a smallish vessel, but...- Let's have a think.

0:27:08 > 0:27:09It is certainly not four.

0:27:09 > 0:27:12Well, there's nothing coming up that is definitively

0:27:12 > 0:27:14- saying anything to you? - A four-masted sailing ship

0:27:14 > 0:27:16- is a sort of battleship, isn't it? Or a warship?- Yeah.

0:27:16 > 0:27:20- I would go two.- All right. Shall we go...? Are you happy with two?

0:27:20 > 0:27:21- You happy with two, Judith?- Yeah.

0:27:21 > 0:27:25All right, well, as you gather, we really don't know this,

0:27:25 > 0:27:28but we do think that a brig is a relatively small vessel.

0:27:28 > 0:27:30So, on that basis alone, we are going to go for two.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33OK, if you've got this wrong,

0:27:33 > 0:27:35we go to Sudden Death.

0:27:35 > 0:27:36If you've got it right,

0:27:36 > 0:27:37the contest is over.

0:27:37 > 0:27:39Your third question,

0:27:39 > 0:27:41the correct answer is two.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43We say congratulations, Eggheads.

0:27:43 > 0:27:44You have won.

0:27:44 > 0:27:45Well played.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51- It's lovely. A very funny game. - But what a great...

0:27:51 > 0:27:54- Yes, what a funny game. What an enjoyable game.- A joy to play you.

0:27:54 > 0:27:57- Have you enjoyed it?- Yes.- It's been fantastic.- For us too, as well.

0:27:57 > 0:28:00- Thanks very much.- We do a lot and this is right at the top of the

0:28:00 > 0:28:03- fun end, I can tell you.- It's great. - Commiserations to St Margaret's.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08They are still ruthless even when they are laughing.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10And they still reign supreme over quizland

0:28:10 > 0:28:13and they are getting a little bit of a roll together here.

0:28:13 > 0:28:15It does mean you won't be going home with the £4,000.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18The money, therefore, rolls over to our next show.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Eggheads, very well done. I wonder who will beat you.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22Join us next time to see

0:28:22 > 0:28:26if a new team of Challengers have the brains to bring them down.

0:28:26 > 0:28:30£5,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye.
