0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:16 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers pit
0:00:26 > 0:00:30their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:36Arranged in a splendid way. And ready to roll?
0:00:36 > 0:00:37- Yes!- Good.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40Challenging our general knowledge geniuses today
0:00:40 > 0:00:42are The Westenders from Edinburgh.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45Now, this team of friends regularly quiz at their local,
0:00:45 > 0:00:47the Au Bar in the city's West End.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Let's meet them.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Eileen, I'm a bookmaker's cashier.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Stephen, I'm a voluntary worker.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hello, I'm Bill, I'm a retired taxi driver.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hello, I'm Jim, I'm a retired butcher.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Hi, I'm James, I'm a voluntary worker.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05So, Eileen, team, great to see you.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08And you quiz together, Eileen, is that right?
0:01:08 > 0:01:10We quiz in separate teams a lot of the time, so...
0:01:10 > 0:01:12Right. But under the same roof anyway?
0:01:12 > 0:01:14In the same location.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Is it very competitive in the Au Bar?
0:01:16 > 0:01:17Yes.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21OK. If you've got the best player in the Au Bar here with us,
0:01:21 > 0:01:25you don't need to identify them, we can try and guess.
0:01:25 > 0:01:26We've got all five of them.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28You've got all five of them?
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Right! It does sound like we've got a game on here.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34- Well, good luck against the Eggheads.- Thank you.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Challengers. However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:39 > 0:01:42the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Now, Westenders, the Eggheads have actually won the last eight games.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47You have come at a good time,
0:01:47 > 0:01:49so the jackpot today is 9,000.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Would you like to play for it?
0:01:51 > 0:01:52- Yes, please.- I thought so.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55OK, the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of History.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58So, Eileen, who would like History?
0:01:58 > 0:01:59- I'll take it.- Bill.- Bill.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00It's going to be Bill?
0:02:00 > 0:02:02OK, which Egghead?
0:02:02 > 0:02:03They are all here.
0:02:03 > 0:02:04What do you think?
0:02:04 > 0:02:05Take your pick.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Lisa is the youngest.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11Yes, OK. We will take Lisa.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13I see where you're coming from.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Based on people don't tend to know about things from before they were
0:02:16 > 0:02:18- born.- Well, yes.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20- We'll see!- We'll see.
0:02:20 > 0:02:24Bill from Westenders versus Lisa from the Eggheads - Eggenders.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26To ensure there is no conferring,
0:02:26 > 0:02:28please take your positions in our Question Room.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Bill, so would you like to go first or second on History?
0:02:33 > 0:02:34I would like to go first, please.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Here we go. Good luck, Bill.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44In which year was John F Kennedy elected US President?
0:02:49 > 0:02:50I happen to remember this.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53It is 1960.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55It is indeed 1960, of course.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Beating... Do you remember who?
0:02:57 > 0:02:58Beating Tricky Dicky.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Yes, yes. Nixon.
0:03:00 > 0:03:06Lisa. What was the surname of the brothers Virgil, Wyatt and Morgan,
0:03:06 > 0:03:12who all took part in the gunfight at the OK Corral in 1881?
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Was it...?
0:03:15 > 0:03:18There was certainly a Wyatt Earp, wasn't there?
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Is that enough to go on? I shall say Earp.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Wyatt Earp and Virgil and
0:03:24 > 0:03:27the other one. Earp is the right answer, yes.
0:03:27 > 0:03:28OK, Bill. Your question.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31In British history, which king
0:03:31 > 0:03:34married the eldest daughter of Edward IV?
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Is it...?
0:03:40 > 0:03:44Ah, right. One of the questions I certainly didn't want.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48I will have to try...
0:03:48 > 0:03:51It's between Henry VII and Richard III, I think.
0:03:54 > 0:03:55Henry VII.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Well done. Henry VII is right, Bill.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Lisa.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Where is the Rosetta Stone,
0:04:04 > 0:04:08discovered in Egypt in 1799, now housed?
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Sounded awfully accusatory, Jeremy.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17"Where is the Rosetta Stone?!" I haven't got it!
0:04:17 > 0:04:19- I don't know what happened! - Have you got it?!
0:04:19 > 0:04:23I had a feeling before the options came up it was the British Museum,
0:04:23 > 0:04:25so we'll go with the British Museum.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Yes, well done. It is the British Museum.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28Have you been there lately?
0:04:28 > 0:04:30No, I never have.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33Isn't that awful? I live too far away from London for such things.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35Back to you, Bill.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39William Wallace was arrested in 1305 near which city?
0:04:42 > 0:04:45I think that would be Glasgow.
0:04:45 > 0:04:46It is indeed Glasgow.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49You're playing really well. You have got three out of three.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Very effective, efficient play by Bill.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53It leaves Lisa clinging on here.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Third question, Lisa.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Who ruled as King of Spain
0:04:57 > 0:05:01until 1931, when the country became a republic?
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear!
0:05:10 > 0:05:14I know very little about any of them, other than that there is an
0:05:14 > 0:05:18Alfonso XIII Street in Barcelona.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21Yeah, I don't know.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23I had a vague preference for Ferdinand VII when the
0:05:23 > 0:05:26options came up. I'll say Ferdinand VII and hold my hands up.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Bill, you want to have a stab at that?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Oh, I would go for Alfonso XIII.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Yeah, you're very good because, Bill, you're right.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Lisa, you're wrong, you are knocked out.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Bill is in the final. How about that?
0:05:36 > 0:05:41Nifty work. Not a single misstep by Bill here for the Challengers.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43And, Lisa, I'm sorry.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Please come back to us and we will play on.
0:05:47 > 0:05:48Well, great play by Bill.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50Well done. And a great start.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Did you feel the pressure there, Bill?
0:05:52 > 0:05:53- Or not?- Absolutely, yes.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55You did. Well, you're through to the final.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Well done. The Westenders have not lost a brain,
0:05:57 > 0:05:59the Eggheads have lost Lisa. They have lost one.
0:05:59 > 0:06:04The next subject is Music, so who wants this, Eileen?
0:06:04 > 0:06:06This is... This is Jim.
0:06:06 > 0:06:07- Jim?- Go for it.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11OK, Jim, our retired butcher, against whom?
0:06:12 > 0:06:13I'll take Chris, please.
0:06:13 > 0:06:17OK. Jim from The Westenders versus Chris from the Eggheads.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Can be hit or miss, old Chris, on Music.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Please take your positions in our special Question Room.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26On Music, Jim, would you like to go first or second?
0:06:26 > 0:06:28I'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34OK, here we go. Which song features the line,
0:06:34 > 0:06:38"Just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed"?
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Well, I know Singin' In The Rain very well.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49It's a musical and I like musicals.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head also came from a film.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57So I shall go for Why Does It Always Rain On Me?
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Actually, do you know what, it's Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head,
0:07:00 > 0:07:02but I am trying to... Lisa, I need your help, please.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04# Raindrops keep falling on my head
0:07:04 > 0:07:06# But just like the guy whose feet are
0:07:06 > 0:07:11# Too big for his bed Nothing seems to fit... #
0:07:11 > 0:07:12And it sort of goes on like that.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Yeah, you know the words to everything.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16It's amazing. So, Lisa has just sung it
0:07:16 > 0:07:17and you now know where it is from.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21So, Chris, your chance to take the lead.
0:07:21 > 0:07:27Too Shy was a UK number one single for Kajagoogoo in which decade?
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Kajagoogoo.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36The decade style forgot, the '80s.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Yes, it was the '80s, you're right.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40A lot of big hair. Chris has got one.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43And, Jim, you've got none at the moment.
0:07:43 > 0:07:48Let's see if we can change that. The Love Unlimited Orchestra served as a
0:07:48 > 0:07:51backing unit for which singer?
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Jim, was it...
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Love Unlimited.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Love Unlimited.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02I can't believe it was Billy Joel.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Barry White was a love guy.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06So I will go for Barry White.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Yeah, he was the love guy, I know what you mean.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10And Barry White is right.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Completely right. Well done.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16Chris, who was the first wife of Frank Sinatra?
0:08:22 > 0:08:28Ah... Now, he had a big thing for years for Ava Gardner.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32But I think his first wife,
0:08:32 > 0:08:36after whom he named his daughter, was Nancy Barbato.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Yes, because it might look as if Nancy was put in there to fox you.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40Because, of course, of Nancy Sinatra.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43But Nancy Barbato is the right answer.
0:08:43 > 0:08:47Well done. So you pull into the lead and it means, Jim,
0:08:47 > 0:08:49you do need to get this one right.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53Which of these composers died in the 19th century?
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Do take your time.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Well, this is obviously tricky.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Classical is not my strong point, but...
0:09:06 > 0:09:08I think Haydn was earlier.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10I will go for...
0:09:11 > 0:09:12..Claude Debussy.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15It's not Claude Debussy.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Kevin knows his dates. When did Claude Debussy die?
0:09:17 > 0:09:19- 1918.- 1918.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23So he died in the 20th century, as I suspect Mahler did, did he?
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- 1911.- 1911.- Oh, well.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29So, the one who died in the 1800s, ie, the 19th century,
0:09:29 > 0:09:31was, in fact, Joseph Haydn.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34He was, you're right, he was the earliest one.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36But he was the correct answer, so I am really sorry about that, Jim.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38Chris, you are in the final round.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41The locomotive steams through again.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43Jim, both of you, come back to us and we will play on.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47So, rather interestingly poised.
0:09:47 > 0:09:48The Westenders have lost one brain
0:09:48 > 0:09:50from the final round but the Eggheads
0:09:50 > 0:09:52have lost one as well.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55The next subject is Arts & Books, so which Westender would like this?
0:09:56 > 0:09:58- How about you, Eileen? - It's you, Eileen, is it?
0:09:58 > 0:10:00- Me.- I know that you've written one.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02- Yes, I have.- That's quite a good reason.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05OK, excellent. Eileen against whom?
0:10:05 > 0:10:10- Dave, please.- OK, so, Eileen from The Westenders against Dave.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13- How's that, Dave?- I'll just see what arts and books come in.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15All right, good stuff.
0:10:15 > 0:10:16Please go to the Question Room.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Eileen, before we play, you must tell us about your book.
0:10:21 > 0:10:26Yeah, I had a book out, my first work of fiction published last year.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29It's called Footprints On The Moon and it is a sort of dark,
0:10:29 > 0:10:32psychological, crime-y sort of thing.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36Right. Influenced by any particular author you admire?
0:10:36 > 0:10:41A little bit of Val McDermid, erm,
0:10:41 > 0:10:44but I am trying to be quite original, so...
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Great. Well, congratulations.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Even just finishing it is quite a task, isn't it?
0:10:49 > 0:10:51- Yes.- Yeah. OK, well, good luck against Dave here.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Tremendous Knowledge Dave.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Would you like to go first or second, Eileen?
0:10:55 > 0:10:57I would like to go first, please.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Here we go with your first question.
0:11:02 > 0:11:07Which writer committed suicide by drowning herself in 1941?
0:11:11 > 0:11:13I do know this one.
0:11:13 > 0:11:14It is Virginia Woolf.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Yes, it is Virginia Woolf.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18It is a little bit late for Jane Austen, I'm thinking.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Yes!
0:11:20 > 0:11:22OK. Dave, your question.
0:11:22 > 0:11:27Diagon Alley is a location in books featuring which of these characters?
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Never heard of this.
0:11:35 > 0:11:36Oh, dear!
0:11:36 > 0:11:39I'm going to have to have a guess.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43- Harry Potter.- Yes, of course,
0:11:43 > 0:11:46because that is the one area you don't know anything about.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Lisa has got advice for you here.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50- Go on.- No, it is basically...
0:11:50 > 0:11:52It is kind of the Oxford Street of the wizarding world.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54It is where you go to buy your "wiz shiz".
0:11:54 > 0:11:57So, 1-1. Sorry, Eileen.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00That almost was a nice moment for you.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04In Salvador Dali's painting The Persistence Of Memory,
0:12:04 > 0:12:08the pocket watch in the bottom left-hand corner is covered in what?
0:12:12 > 0:12:15I don't think it is pigeons.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17And I don't think Dali painted rats.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21He was more elephants and tigers and weird stuff.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23So I'm going to go for ants.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25It is indeed ants.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26Good bit of detail there.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29OK, your question, Tremendous Knowledge Dave.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32What is the title of Jenny Joseph's poem that begins,
0:12:32 > 0:12:36"When I am an old women, I shall wear purple"?
0:12:40 > 0:12:42I don't know. I've not heard of this.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44It is a bad round for me at the moment.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47I'm going to go Affirmation, because I haven't heard of it at all.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49The answer is Warning.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51When we get older, we're going to be reading it.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54OK, Eileen, you are in the lead.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58If you get this right, the round is over and you are in the final.
0:12:58 > 0:13:04The Death Cure is the third entry in which series of young adult books?
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Erm, I have no idea.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14I am going to say...
0:13:14 > 0:13:16It is a wild stab in the dark.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18I am going to say The Maze Runner.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20- Is she right?- She is quite right.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Yes, you're quite right, Eileen, well done.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Three out of three. Excellent play.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27- Sorry, Dave. You have been knocked out.- No apologies needed!
0:13:27 > 0:13:28Knocked out by an author.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31No shame in that. Well done, Eileen, you will be in the final round.
0:13:31 > 0:13:35Come back, both of you, and we will see what happens in the next round.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37The Westenders have lost one brain
0:13:37 > 0:13:39from the final round but the Eggheads
0:13:39 > 0:13:42have lost two. The next subject, and the last before the final,
0:13:42 > 0:13:45is Film & TV. So who would like this?
0:13:45 > 0:13:47It's got to be James or Stephen.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Stephen, you are good on your films.
0:13:49 > 0:13:54- It depends how old they are.- You know more about film than I do.
0:13:54 > 0:13:55Television...
0:13:55 > 0:13:57- Stephen.- Stephen.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59- I'll take this one, yes.- OK.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Voluntary worker, former chef, against which Egghead?
0:14:02 > 0:14:04- I don't know.- It's Judith or Kevin.
0:14:04 > 0:14:05I'll take Judith on.
0:14:05 > 0:14:06- Judith.- All right.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Stephen from The Westenders versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13To ensure there is no conferring, please go to our Question Room.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Film and TV, Stephen.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Would you like to go first or second?
0:14:16 > 0:14:18I will go first, please.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Here we go with your question.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27Endeavour is a spin-off from which TV drama series?
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Endeavour.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37That was Inspector Morse's first name,
0:14:37 > 0:14:39so I will go for Inspector Morse.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Excellent play. Yes, it is Inspector Morse, Stephen.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Well done, first point to you.
0:14:43 > 0:14:49Judith, what is the subtitle of the film Star Wars: Episode I?
0:14:55 > 0:14:56Oh, I can never remember these.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Star Wars...
0:15:00 > 0:15:02I think it is probably The Phantom Menace.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Good play there.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06The Phantom Menace is correct.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- Yeah.- Brilliant. OK, Stephen.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Who played Guy Chambers in the 2015 film
0:15:12 > 0:15:15The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel?
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Well, it is not a film I have seen.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25I have not been to see a film in the pictures for quite a while now.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28It will have to be a bit of a guess here.
0:15:28 > 0:15:29I would say...
0:15:29 > 0:15:33- George Clooney. - No, it was not, actually.
0:15:33 > 0:15:34It was Richard Gere.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36I wouldn't have guessed Richard Gere.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Brought in as a real bit of star power there.
0:15:38 > 0:15:42Richard Gere. So, a chance for Judith to pull ahead.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Which sitcom character was particularly renowned
0:15:45 > 0:15:48for changing her hair colour?
0:15:52 > 0:15:54How I loved Mrs Slocombe!
0:15:54 > 0:15:58I think Mrs Slocombe went through a series of different colours.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00They must all have been wigs, I suppose.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02I think it is Mrs Slocombe.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Mrs Slocombe is correct.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08So she is ahead, Stephen.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Got to do something to stop her now.
0:16:10 > 0:16:16For which film did Sidney Poitier win a Best Actor Oscar?
0:16:22 > 0:16:24It is not Lilies Of The Field.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30In The Heat Of The Night, one of my favourite films...
0:16:30 > 0:16:33Guess Who's Coming To Dinner...
0:16:33 > 0:16:36There were Oscars given out for In The Heat Of The Night,
0:16:36 > 0:16:39but I think possibly Rod Steiger got an Oscar there,
0:16:39 > 0:16:41so I will go for Guess Who's Coming To Dinner.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43No, I think he was in all of them.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45Eggheads, help us out here.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47- Is he right? - No, it is Lilies Of The Field.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Lilies Of The Field is the answer.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51So, no way back.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54Which means that you were beaten by our Egghead there, Stephen.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Judith will be in the final round and you won't.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00But if you come back to us, we can get on and play the final.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04So, this is what we have been playing towards.
0:17:04 > 0:17:05It is time for the final round
0:17:05 > 0:17:08which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be
0:17:11 > 0:17:12allowed to take part in this round.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15So, that is Stephen and Jim from The Westenders,
0:17:15 > 0:17:18but also, Lisa and Dave from the Eggheads,
0:17:18 > 0:17:20would you please leave the studio?
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Eileen, Bill and James,
0:17:23 > 0:17:26you are playing to win The Westenders £9,000.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29Eggheads, you're playing for something money can't buy,
0:17:29 > 0:17:32which is your precious reputation.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn,
0:17:34 > 0:17:37and this time the questions are all General Knowledge.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39You are allowed to confer.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41So, Westenders, the question is,
0:17:41 > 0:17:45are your three brains able to defeat these three?
0:17:45 > 0:17:48It is always nice when the final is matched three on three.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Would you like to go first or second?
0:17:50 > 0:17:52We will go first, please.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57OK, James and team, here we go.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Your first question.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Which European capital hosted a summer Olympic Games
0:18:01 > 0:18:03in the 1950s?
0:18:07 > 0:18:09- Helsinki.- It is Helsinki.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11- Happy with that, guys? - Yeah, Helsinki.
0:18:11 > 0:18:12Helsinki, '52, I think it was.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Helsinki is correct, well done.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19OK, Eggheads.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23For what does the letter S stand in WSPU,
0:18:23 > 0:18:27the party founded in 1903 by Emmeline Pankhurst?
0:18:31 > 0:18:35- Social?- Women's Social and Political Union.- Was it?
0:18:35 > 0:18:37- It wouldn't be Suffrage...- No.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40That is a red herring.
0:18:40 > 0:18:41Yes, it is.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43I hadn't thought about that, actually...
0:18:43 > 0:18:47Although you might think it would be Suffrage, it is actually Social,
0:18:47 > 0:18:49it was the Women's Social and Political Union.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51You're quite right, it is Social.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Could have tripped you up, that one.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56OK, that is a shame.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57They didn't fall for that.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- Yes.- Here's your question.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04Lynn Bowles achieved fame for filling which role
0:19:04 > 0:19:05on Radio 2?
0:19:09 > 0:19:11Do you know this one?
0:19:11 > 0:19:12No. I know it's not...
0:19:12 > 0:19:14I don't think it is sports.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17It is either weather or traffic.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19- Which one was it?- Lynn Bowles...
0:19:20 > 0:19:23- I think it is traffic.- Yeah, we'll go with traffic.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26Jeremy, we will go for traffic reporter.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28Phew, I am so relieved!
0:19:28 > 0:19:29It would have been so painful
0:19:29 > 0:19:31to tell Lynn that we had a great question,
0:19:31 > 0:19:33she achieved fame for filling which role?
0:19:33 > 0:19:36You said, "I don't know!" Yes, good, traffic reporter is right.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39Well done. Pleased for you as well.
0:19:39 > 0:19:40So, Eggs,
0:19:40 > 0:19:44which word is formed by the chemical symbols for the elements with the
0:19:44 > 0:19:48atomic numbers 3 and 15?
0:19:52 > 0:19:553 is lithium. I mean...
0:19:55 > 0:19:58Fe for iron is 26.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01And radium is up in the 80s.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03So P is phosphorus.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05- P for phosphorus.- Phosphorus, yeah.
0:20:05 > 0:20:06- So, lip.- So it is lip.
0:20:06 > 0:20:11It is lip. It is Li for lithium and P for phosphorus.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- Do you think they are right? - I do, yes.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17You're right, it is lip. I am just amazed with the way you got to that,
0:20:17 > 0:20:18because I think that is
0:20:18 > 0:20:21a deeply difficult question.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23OK, your third question, good luck.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27Bradley Cooper was nominated for a 2015 Tony Award
0:20:27 > 0:20:30for his performance in which play?
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Bradley Cooper.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39I think it was The Elephant Man.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41I was leaning towards The Elephant Man, too.
0:20:41 > 0:20:47I have heard of Bradley Cooper, but don't know anything he has been in.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50American Sniper, I think he was in that.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Shall we just go for The Elephant Man?
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Jeremy, we're not very sure.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57But we're all kind of leaning towards The Elephant Man.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59- Are they right?- Think so, yeah.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Yeah, The Elephant Man, it is. You have got three out of three.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Done really well there. Playing for £9,000.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08If the Eggheads get this one wrong, the jackpot is yours.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10A, you have got three in the final, which is good,
0:21:10 > 0:21:13and B, you have got all three questions right.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Couldn't ask for more. So your third question here, Eggheads,
0:21:16 > 0:21:19on which the contest may depend, is...
0:21:19 > 0:21:23how many Grand Slam singles titles did the British tennis player
0:21:23 > 0:21:25Fred Perry win?
0:21:28 > 0:21:30How many Grand Slams were there in those days?
0:21:31 > 0:21:35They all existed in the 1930s at his time.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37- OK.- He certainly won
0:21:37 > 0:21:40- three Wimbledons.- Three Wimbledons.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45Did he win France or America?
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Australia?
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Well, I think so, yes.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52I think he may well have done that.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58I mean, I think he... I don't think it's three.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00No, because he won three Wimbledons.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03I think he won more than his three Wimbledons.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07OK. So did he win five more or two more?
0:22:07 > 0:22:10I am not sure he won the French.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11But I may be wrong there.
0:22:11 > 0:22:16Because, of course... Well, the era of the Four Musketeers was just...
0:22:17 > 0:22:19..just before him.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23I have to say, I don't know...
0:22:23 > 0:22:25I have got no basis for this.
0:22:25 > 0:22:26If I have an inkling, it is for eight.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28- Yeah.- Is it for eight?
0:22:28 > 0:22:29- Yeah, yeah.- Same here.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31Because he would have won
0:22:31 > 0:22:35more than two more on top of three Wimbledons, wouldn't he?
0:22:35 > 0:22:39- If he was that good.- Well, he would have had to win five more.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41We don't know, do we?
0:22:41 > 0:22:43- We don't.- So we have to take a chance.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46- Captain's decision.- Yeah, it's taking a chance whichever way we go,
0:22:46 > 0:22:48- I think.- What's your instinct?
0:22:48 > 0:22:50- My instinct is eight.- OK, well...
0:22:50 > 0:22:53- So's mine, actually. - Well, let's go with your instinct,
0:22:53 > 0:22:56because your instinct is usually quite good.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59If we have any sort of inclination, it is towards the upper end, so
0:22:59 > 0:23:03- we're thinking eight. - Eight is your answer.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06Well, it was a three-year period, by the way.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08'33 to '36.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Three Wimbledons, one French Open, one Australian...
0:23:12 > 0:23:15and three in America. So, eight is correct.
0:23:15 > 0:23:16- Well done.- Well done, Kevin!
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Good quizzing there.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Just watching Kevin at work there...
0:23:20 > 0:23:24Chris came in very decisively on eight, which was useful.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27So sorry, you were so close to £9,000 there.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30But never write this lot off.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32So, perfect round so far for both teams.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34We go to Sudden Death.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36It gets a bit harder. I don't give you alternative answers.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Here is your first question, Challengers.
0:23:39 > 0:23:43Which British boxer, who became world middleweight champion in 1951,
0:23:43 > 0:23:47had the nickname the Leamington Licker?
0:23:47 > 0:23:48Bill?
0:23:48 > 0:23:50Looking at you for...
0:23:50 > 0:23:53Leamington Licker.
0:23:53 > 0:23:541951. '51.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58- Middleweight, was it?- I would go with Randy Turpin.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Was he not a bit earlier?
0:24:00 > 0:24:01It sounds a bit earlier.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03He was somewhere in the '50s.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06I am sure he was a middleweight, yes.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08- I really don't know.- Jack London, was he...?
0:24:08 > 0:24:10No, Jack London was...
0:24:10 > 0:24:13- No, Brian London.- No, Brian London, he was a heavyweight.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16- Yeah.- You want to go with that?
0:24:16 > 0:24:18- What was the answer?- Randy Turpin.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20Randy Turpin.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22We're not sure, Jeremy, as you've probably figured,
0:24:22 > 0:24:24but Bill has come up with Randy Turpin.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Bill is quite right, it is Randy Turpin.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28- Well done.- Well done, Bill.
0:24:28 > 0:24:33Absolutely brilliant. Defeated Sugar Ray Robinson and then lost a rematch
0:24:33 > 0:24:3563 days later.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Well done. You have played brilliantly, Bill.
0:24:38 > 0:24:39So you may have won £9,000.
0:24:39 > 0:24:44Let's see. If the Eggheads get this wrong, you have.
0:24:44 > 0:24:49By what name was the Nobel Prize winner Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu,
0:24:49 > 0:24:52who died in September 1997, better known?
0:24:52 > 0:24:56- Mother Teresa.- That was the real name of Mother Teresa.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58Mother Teresa is quite right.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00OK, Sudden Death, here we go.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Your question, Challengers.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06Who wrote the song The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face?
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Roberta Flack sang it.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12I think it might be Ewan MacColl.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14- Which one?- Ewan MacColl.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Ewan MacColl. How confident are you?
0:25:16 > 0:25:17Well, wait a minute, there is another one
0:25:17 > 0:25:19that is that type of song.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22No, I still say Ewan MacColl.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24- Confident?- No.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Please say yes, Bill, come on.
0:25:27 > 0:25:31Again, Jeremy, we're not very sure, but Bill is doing well today.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33He has come up with Ewan MacColl.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35Ewan MacColl is the right answer.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37- Well done, Bill.- You're still alive on Sudden Death.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40In fact, you may be the winners if they get this wrong.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45If they get this wrong! What was the surname of the Frenchman credited
0:25:45 > 0:25:49with the invention of the collapsible opera hat?
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Frenchman. 19th-century Frenchman.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Come on.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57I know hundreds of those!
0:25:57 > 0:25:59What is a French collapsible opera hat name in French?
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Trying to think of any other names for a collapsible opera hat.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04Think of a French name for it.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06I can't, unfortunately.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- FRENCH ACCENT: - Chapeau collapsible...!
0:26:12 > 0:26:15It's not somebody weird like Gustave Eiffel, is it?
0:26:15 > 0:26:18- I was...- Could it be an engineer?
0:26:18 > 0:26:21I was wondering about whether it was somebody well-known,
0:26:21 > 0:26:23and I suppose it could be.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Can we just have it again, Jeremy?
0:26:25 > 0:26:27Not that it is going to help, but...
0:26:27 > 0:26:30What was the surname of the Frenchman
0:26:30 > 0:26:33credited with the invention of the collapsible opera hat?
0:26:33 > 0:26:36It could be something totally bizarre, like Gustave Eiffel.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39The strange thing is, I think I have heard it, but
0:26:39 > 0:26:41nothing is coming back to me.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43No, nothing here either.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46It is not somebody in a balloon?
0:26:46 > 0:26:47What do the French call a top hat?
0:26:47 > 0:26:50- I can't...- I don't know. I simply can't remember.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52I think we are stuck, aren't we?
0:26:52 > 0:26:54So we may have to throw our hands up, basically.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57- We could just say something like... - Why don't we say Eiffel?
0:26:57 > 0:27:01Gustave Eiffel. Just as a shot in the dark.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Better than nothing.- We haven't got a clue, quite honestly.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06It is one of those questions.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10So...we will say Eiffel.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12We will say Eiffel, because it is just...
0:27:12 > 0:27:13Gustave Eiffel.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15This person gave their name.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Yes, that was the crucial thing,
0:27:17 > 0:27:20but we can't remember what the French term for it is.
0:27:20 > 0:27:21It is known as the Gibus.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23- Oh, well.- I didn't know that either.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25In that case, I don't recognise it, no.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27How do you spell that?
0:27:27 > 0:27:29G-I-B-U-S.
0:27:29 > 0:27:30That is a horror. That really is a horror.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32That is a ridiculous question!
0:27:32 > 0:27:34I think that might be one of the hardest
0:27:34 > 0:27:37questions we've ever asked. Antoine Gibus.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39The Gibus is the hat. You couldn't get it, Eggheads.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41We say congratulations, Challengers.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43You have won.
0:27:47 > 0:27:52Well, OK, leaving aside the craziness of that last question...
0:27:52 > 0:27:54- I am so glad you didn't get that question!- So are we!
0:27:54 > 0:27:56You played really well.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59There were questions there that... Well, 19 times out of 20,
0:27:59 > 0:28:01you would not hear the answer, you know,
0:28:01 > 0:28:03so you did really well to push them that far.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06And you just have to hope that something comes up like that.
0:28:06 > 0:28:07We have Bill to thank.
0:28:07 > 0:28:08Yeah, Bill was fantastic.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11Brilliant play, right from the start.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Congratulations, Westenders.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Great game. You have won £9,000.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17Really well done. You brought their run to an end,
0:28:17 > 0:28:19just as they were beginning to get into it.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21So you are officially cleverer than the Eggheads,
0:28:21 > 0:28:24who will blame Mr Gibus for a long time.
0:28:24 > 0:28:25You have proved they can be beaten.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29Join us next time on Eggheads to see if a new team of Challengers will be
0:28:29 > 0:28:31just as successful.
0:28:31 > 0:28:33I can't guarantee we will have just as much fun.
0:28:33 > 0:28:34Till then, goodbye.
