0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:13Together, they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable
0:00:13 > 0:00:14quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Welcome to Eggheads, the show where
0:00:25 > 0:00:27a team of five quiz Challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:28pit their wits against
0:00:28 > 0:00:30possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33They are the Eggheads.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36And taking on the awesome might of our quiz champions today
0:00:36 > 0:00:37are Lucky No. 7.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Now, this friends and family team
0:00:39 > 0:00:41have been quizzing together at the Clockwork Pub
0:00:41 > 0:00:43in Glasgow for five years.
0:00:43 > 0:00:44Let's meet them.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Hi, I'm Eric and I'm an engineer.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50Hello, I'm Shirley and I'm an occupational therapist.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Hi, I'm Gill and I'm an occupational therapy manager.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm Tony. I'm a taxi driver.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hi, I'm Ronnie and I'm a support worker.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01So Eric and team, welcome. Good to see you.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03And we are at the Clockwork Pub, is that right?
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Yes, that's our local pub in the South Side of Glasgow
0:01:07 > 0:01:10just at Mount Florida and we try to meet there, it's generally
0:01:10 > 0:01:13once a week if we can, but with different shifts
0:01:13 > 0:01:16and people doing different things, it's not always possible.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Good stuff. But why Lucky No. 7? Why the team name?
0:01:19 > 0:01:22When we first started going to the quiz,
0:01:22 > 0:01:27the first time we won it the quizmaster called us lucky
0:01:27 > 0:01:29and our table number was seven,
0:01:29 > 0:01:31so we've just stuck with that name since then.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34Since it was the Clockwork Pub, I was thinking Clockwork Orange
0:01:34 > 0:01:36would be the obvious name, but we've probably had that, haven't we?
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Have we had Clockwork Orange before? We've had a lot...
0:01:39 > 0:01:44How many shows have we done, actually? Is it 1,500?
0:01:44 > 0:01:46We're running out of team names.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48So you've done well to get that one.
0:01:48 > 0:01:49And you're friends and family?
0:01:49 > 0:01:55Yes, Shirley is my wife and Shirley and Gill were at college together
0:01:55 > 0:01:58many, many years ago and that's basically when we all kind of met.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02- Ronnie, I, believe it or not, was at primary school with.- OK.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04That's going on 40 years.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Good stuff. Well, there are some very close connections.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08Good luck to you.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash
0:02:10 > 0:02:12up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money
0:02:14 > 0:02:16rolls over to the next show.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19So, Lucky No. 7, the Eggheads have won just the last game.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22We've had a bit of a difficult time, which I'm trying not to mention.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24It means that £2,000 says you
0:02:24 > 0:02:26can't beat them today.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28- OK, do you want to give it a go? ALL:- Yeah.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Great stuff. The first head-to-head battle
0:02:30 > 0:02:32is on the subject of Arts & Books.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34OK, guys.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- Arts & Books.- Arts & Books, is that you, Shirley?
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- Do you want me to...?- Aye, you do it, Shirley.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Do you want me to go on that one?
0:02:41 > 0:02:46- Shirley?- It saves you for...- OK, if you fancy.- Yes, Shirley, yeah.- OK.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48It's going to be Shirley, this one.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Shirley? And the Eggheads are all lined up, all five of them.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54- Have any one of the five.- Have you got any particular choice?
0:02:54 > 0:02:57- Lisa, maybe.- Yeah, maybe Lisa?
0:02:57 > 0:03:02- Yeah, try Lisa? What do you think, Ronnie?- Try Lisa. Lisa.
0:03:02 > 0:03:07OK, so it's going to be Shirley from Lucky No. 7 on Arts & Books
0:03:07 > 0:03:08versus Lisa from the Eggheads.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10And just to ensure there's no conferring,
0:03:10 > 0:03:12would you please take your positions in the Question Room?
0:03:14 > 0:03:18- So, Shirley, you once won a painting competition?- Yes, I did.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21It was the Buchanan Street Art Competition
0:03:21 > 0:03:22when I was 16.
0:03:22 > 0:03:27Great stuff. And is that one where they have a display in the street?
0:03:27 > 0:03:31No, I was doing Higher Art at school, at secondary school,
0:03:31 > 0:03:34and it was throughout the secondary schools in Glasgow,
0:03:34 > 0:03:37so I applied and went to Buchanan Street and painted.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Wonderful and watercolour or oil?
0:03:40 > 0:03:42No, it was pastel, actually, it was pastel.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Yeah, and do you still paint?
0:03:44 > 0:03:46No, I don't, but I suppose
0:03:46 > 0:03:48the job I do is quite a creative job as well.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- Which is occupational therapy? - Occupational therapy, yes.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54Yeah, so often people recover through art?
0:03:54 > 0:03:58Yeah, absolutely, all the different arts - music, art, drama.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01- All the different arts we use. - Must be very satisfying, that.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- It is very satisfying.- Well, good luck here against Lisa.- Thank you.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08Arts & Books, Shirley, and would you like to go first or second?
0:04:08 > 0:04:09I'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15So here we go with your first question, good luck.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18AA Milne's Winnie The Pooh famously described
0:04:18 > 0:04:22himself as "a bear of very little..." what? Is it...
0:04:26 > 0:04:28Well, I think I know this one
0:04:28 > 0:04:29cos I like Winnie The Pooh,
0:04:29 > 0:04:31so I think it's brain.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34It is indeed brain. "A bear of very little brain."
0:04:36 > 0:04:37Lisa,
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Elsinore Castle features prominently in which Shakespeare play?
0:04:45 > 0:04:49Elsinore, it's one of that there Scottish lot, isn't it?
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Um, Macbeth.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54- No, no.- You've done it...
0:04:54 > 0:04:56- SHOUTS:- No, it's not, is it? No!
0:04:57 > 0:05:01- No, Lisa.- I can see how you did that.- No, it's Hamlet.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Oh, Lisa, Lisa, Lisa, Lisa.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05You've got a little bit of lively
0:05:05 > 0:05:07laughter from your team-mates here.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- For goodness' sake, woman. - The danger of the speedy answer. OK.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- That is terrible. - Hamlet is the answer.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17- I know, Jeremy. Don't rub it in. - Shall we just end the contest now?
0:05:17 > 0:05:19- OK, that's it. You've won.- Oh, Lisa.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22OK, so, Shirley,
0:05:22 > 0:05:24in which language was the epic poem, The Iliad,
0:05:24 > 0:05:26originally written? Was it...
0:05:29 > 0:05:34Right, OK. I know, I think, well, I think it wasn't Egyptian.
0:05:34 > 0:05:38My first... I immediately thought Greek,
0:05:38 > 0:05:41but I'm now wondering about Greek or Latin. The Iliad.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48I'm going to stick with my first choice, which is Greek.
0:05:48 > 0:05:49- Is she right, Lisa?- Yes.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52- Yes, Greek is right. - Good.- Good, good.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56Two out of two. OK, Lisa, if you get this wrong, you're out.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Well, I'm not making any promises after that howler.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02Which of these fictional characters was created by Patrick O'Brian?
0:06:07 > 0:06:10SHE SIGHS
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Right, let's just have a little think this time, shall we?
0:06:13 > 0:06:14Before we go wading in
0:06:14 > 0:06:15with stupid answers.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Patrick O'Brian, did you say, Jeremy?
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Which of these fictional characters was created by Patrick O'Brian?
0:06:23 > 0:06:25I have a funny feeling Arthur Hastings
0:06:25 > 0:06:27is the captain out of Poirot.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31And Dean Moriarty is...
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Isn't Dean Moriarty like On The Road or something?
0:06:36 > 0:06:39But the Maturin bit was ringing bells, so I think it must be
0:06:39 > 0:06:40Stephen Maturin.
0:06:40 > 0:06:45Stephen Maturin is right. Yay!
0:06:45 > 0:06:46Where is that bottle of champagne?
0:06:46 > 0:06:49- I'm still wincing from the last howler, Jeremy.- Don't worry.
0:06:49 > 0:06:50It's easily done.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52OK, back to you, Shirley.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54If you get this right, you are in the final round
0:06:54 > 0:06:56because Lisa slipped up earlier.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00In which century did the Venetian painter Titian die?
0:07:04 > 0:07:06The Venetian painter Titian?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- Titian is T-I-T-I-A-N.- OK.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13I'm thinking...I'm thinking the earliest,
0:07:13 > 0:07:16but I need to think about this.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19- WHISPERS:- 15 something, 13 something, Titian.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22No, I think I'll go for...I think I'll change my mind
0:07:22 > 0:07:27and go for the 16th. I think it was 15 something.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Yes, the Renaissance was the 15 somethings
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- and you're absolutely right.- OK.
0:07:31 > 0:07:3416th is the correct answer, three out of three. Oh, well played!
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Hey! You're through to the final round.- Thank you.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41So your team can now go crazy or was that you going crazy?
0:07:41 > 0:07:42That was us going crazy, yes.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Sorry, Lisa you've been knocked out.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Entirely self-inflicted, I think that's only fair.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Knocked out by a castle. Come back to us and we'll play on.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Well, very good start.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Lucky No. 7, you are... I won't say you're lucky.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59You've done a brilliant job there taking down Lisa with
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- a little bit of help from...- Lisa. - ..was it Macbeth? Was it Hamlet?
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Anyway, the Eggheads have lost a brain and you haven't.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08That's the key thing and the next subject for you is Geography.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- So who would like this?- I think that
0:08:10 > 0:08:14- needs to be...- Eric.- I think Eric. - I'd say Eric.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17- Are you OK with that, Ronnie?- Eric? - It's got to be myself.
0:08:17 > 0:08:18- Certainly, yes.- OK, good stuff.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Against which Egghead, Eric? Anyone but Lisa...
0:08:21 > 0:08:23- Anyone but Lisa.- ..who is nursing her wounds.
0:08:25 > 0:08:26I think, Judith.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30THEY MUMBLE
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- What do you think, Ronnie? Judith? - Yeah.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35OK, I'd like to play against Judith, please.
0:08:35 > 0:08:36Yeah, how's that Judith?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Right back into the fray.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41Yeah, I'll probably do exactly the same as Lisa.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44- I always do.- It would make me look better, if you wouldn't mind.
0:08:44 > 0:08:45Well, I'll do my best.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49All right, so Eric from Lucky No. 7 versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Geography, the subject, can't wait to see what happens now.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Please go to our Question Room.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58So, Eric, your work as an engineer took you
0:08:58 > 0:09:00to the whisky industry, I understand.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Yes, I spent a couple of years, or Shirley and I spent
0:09:03 > 0:09:05a couple of years over on the Isle of Islay working
0:09:05 > 0:09:08at the Bunnahabhain Distillery.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09It's a very beautiful location,
0:09:09 > 0:09:12but it just proved to be a wee bit too remote for us.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Really, so it's called the Bunnahabhain Distillery.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- Bunnahabhain, yes.- That's a good quizzy fact for us, isn't it?
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Eggheads? Have we heard about the distillery in Islay?- Yes.
0:09:20 > 0:09:25- Funnily enough, as we speak, I had a trip to Islay last year.- Right?
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Went all round Islay as well as Jura and Colonsay nearby.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30You saw the distillery there?
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Yes, there are eight, I think, on Islay.
0:09:32 > 0:09:36- Eric, there's a lot of distilleries on Islay.- Yes.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Yeah, there's quite a number. Seven or eight now, I believe.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40All right, good luck on, I hope
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Islay comes up on your Geography round.
0:09:42 > 0:09:43That would be wonderful.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47And you're up against Judith who's quite a mean player on Geography.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50- That's kind of you.- Start with confidence, Judith,
0:09:50 > 0:09:51that's the key thing.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52Eric, do you want go first or second?
0:09:52 > 0:09:54I'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00All right, here is your first question.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Eric, Lisbon is a city located in which part of Portugal?
0:10:06 > 0:10:09It would be one of those countries that I've never visited.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13I've never actually been to Portugal. Lisbon.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14It's the capital.
0:10:14 > 0:10:19I'll take a stab at the north of Portugal.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21It's the west. I'm sorry.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Judith, over to you.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26What is the official currency of Austria? Is it...
0:10:32 > 0:10:37Well, I think forint was Hungarian and I don't know what koruna is,
0:10:37 > 0:10:41but it's part of the Eurozone, isn't it?
0:10:42 > 0:10:45- Euro...- OK, I thought you were giving us a little...
0:10:45 > 0:10:49- ..and anyway it was a schilling, I think, before it was a euro.- Oh, OK.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52I thought you were having a little Hamlet/Macbeth there.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54No, I hope not.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57- Euro is the right answer.- Good.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59Euro is the answer, well done.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Anyone tell us about koruna?
0:11:01 > 0:11:02- ALL:- Czech Republic.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04That's Czech, Judith.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06And forint is Hungarian, is it?
0:11:06 > 0:11:07Forint is indeed Hungarian, yeah.
0:11:07 > 0:11:08So you were right about that.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09And right about the euro,
0:11:09 > 0:11:12so you're ahead. Eric, you need get this one right to catch up.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16Which of these is the state nickname of West Virginia?
0:11:21 > 0:11:22The Lone Star State,
0:11:22 > 0:11:25I'm pretty sure is Texas.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29The Ocean State, I don't think that would be correct
0:11:29 > 0:11:31cos I don't think it's near the ocean.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35So I'm going to go for the Mountain State.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Yeah, I guess the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Yeah, the Mountain State is right, well done.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Point to you. Back to Judith.
0:11:41 > 0:11:42Your second question.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46Which of these rivers rises in the Swiss Alps?
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Judith, is it...
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Well, the Volga is to do with Russia,
0:11:53 > 0:11:56so that's not in the Swiss Alps.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59The Danube. Where does the Danube rise?
0:11:59 > 0:12:01I don't think it does rise in the Swiss Alps.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03I think it's the Rhine.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Rhine is the right answer.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07So, you have two points and Eric, you need to get your
0:12:07 > 0:12:09second correct answer now or
0:12:09 > 0:12:11you will be out of the contest.
0:12:11 > 0:12:18What is the approximate area of Canada in square kilometres?
0:12:18 > 0:12:19Is it...
0:12:23 > 0:12:26I know Canada's big.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32It would be a rough guesstimate.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38I'm going to plump for five million.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- It's ten million.- Ten million, yeah.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42- Which is enormous, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44And I'm sorry, on that answer you've gone
0:12:44 > 0:12:46and Judith will be in the final.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Well done, Judith. Eric, I'm sorry you were beaten by our Egghead
0:12:49 > 0:12:52and so you will not be in the final round.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Both of you, please come back to us and join your teams.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59So, level pegging, rather interesting, isn't it?
0:12:59 > 0:13:02As it stands, Lucky No. 7 have lost a brain from the final.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05The Eggheads have also lost a brain.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07What's going to happen now while we play Music?
0:13:07 > 0:13:09So who would like to take Music?
0:13:11 > 0:13:15- Tony?- Yeah, I'll do music.- I think it's got to be you, Tony.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18I was going to say it rather has to be Tony with his background,
0:13:18 > 0:13:23which we are about to discover. Against who, Tony?
0:13:23 > 0:13:25- What do we think?- I don't...I'm not sure.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Let's just think about it.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Every other genre on music, I think he's good, Kevin.
0:13:31 > 0:13:36But if it's pop music, he could struggle. I don't know. Pat?
0:13:36 > 0:13:39- No, I think he's quite good. - You think he is good?
0:13:39 > 0:13:44- Dave's good on music too.- What do you think, Ronnie?
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- Yeah, Kevin, I would go for.- Kevin. Shall we go for Kevin?
0:13:47 > 0:13:48- Thanks very much. - THEY LAUGH
0:13:48 > 0:13:49We don't make it easy!
0:13:49 > 0:13:52That was quite a meeting. So did we end up with Kevin then?
0:13:52 > 0:13:53- Yes, please.- OK.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55So, Tony from Lucky No. 7 versus
0:13:55 > 0:13:58Kevin from the Eggheads and just to ensure there's no conferring,
0:13:58 > 0:14:02would you please take your positions in our famous Question Room?
0:14:03 > 0:14:06So we're on Music, Tony, and it's perfect for you
0:14:06 > 0:14:08because you were in a brilliant band.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Yeah, I think they were brilliant, Jeremy.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Back in the 1980s, I was in a band called Altered Images.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17It was me and some friends from school and we had some success for
0:14:17 > 0:14:20four or five years and had a really good time and it was very enjoyable.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Yeah, and I was 15 in 1980 and I can remember every song.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27- Dead Pop Stars was the first one. - That's right.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29That was a bit more niche, and then you were on Top Of The Pops
0:14:29 > 0:14:31with Happy Birthday and I Could Be Happy
0:14:31 > 0:14:33- and all of that. - Yeah, it was great fun, yeah.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35We just kind of done a musical progression.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38We were all young boys and Clare was a young girl, obviously,
0:14:38 > 0:14:41woman, so for four or five years he had a great time, great fun.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Yeah, and Clare Grogan, who you mentioned, was in the famous
0:14:44 > 0:14:45film, Gregory's Girl.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48That's right, that happened just as the band was starting.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51We weren't signed up, so it was all happening at the same time.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53It was just a very exciting time when you're young.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55- It was very good.- Must have been amazing.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57- And you were writing the songs, so...- I was involved.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00It was mainly a guy, Johnny, wrote the songs.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03He's now in the band Texas. He's still going strong. He's doing well.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05It's almost the perfect way to spend your younger years,
0:15:05 > 0:15:06I should think.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10It was great. I wish it was a little bit wilder, to be honest.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Well, I remember you being interviewed
0:15:12 > 0:15:15and being quite studious when you were being asked about songwriting
0:15:15 > 0:15:19- and you were obviously working very hard at the songs.- Yeah, yeah.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21We did, we wrote all our own songs, you know, so it was good.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24- It was good fun.- I hope we're not going to now hit you
0:15:24 > 0:15:26with seven questions on opera, Tony
0:15:26 > 0:15:29cos I'll be very embarrassed if we do.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31Anyway, good luck against Kevin.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Music is the subject and would you like to go first or second?
0:15:33 > 0:15:35I'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:15:39 > 0:15:43So here we go. What type of instrument is a contrabassoon?
0:15:43 > 0:15:44Is it...
0:15:46 > 0:15:50I don't think it's woodwind or percussion,
0:15:50 > 0:15:52so I'm going to have to go for brass.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Actually, no, it's woodwind.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56I guess the bassoon connection is
0:15:56 > 0:15:59just the obvious thing although it looks a little bit too obvious.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01It looks like something that fell off the back of a lorry,
0:16:01 > 0:16:04a contrabassoon. It's a proper weird bit of engineering.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Does it look at all like a bassoon?
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Yeah, but it looks like a bassoon with a large part of a lorry
0:16:09 > 0:16:11- attached to it.- Right, OK.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13I don't think there have been many sightings of them recently
0:16:13 > 0:16:16if that's any consolation, Tony. Kevin, over to you.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19Which of these bands announced in August 2015
0:16:19 > 0:16:22that they would be separating for at least a year
0:16:22 > 0:16:27after the release of their fifth album to focus on solo projects?
0:16:27 > 0:16:28Is it...
0:16:31 > 0:16:36I think by that stage JLS had already broken up.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40Little Mix, as we speak, are still a functioning outfit.
0:16:40 > 0:16:41It's One Direction.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45One Direction is quite right. Causing some hysteria.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48OK, Tony, back to you.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Which Jason Derulo song was number one on the UK singles chart
0:16:51 > 0:16:53for four weeks in June 2015?
0:16:57 > 0:16:59I'm not great with the modern music,
0:16:59 > 0:17:03Jeremy, I'm kind of stuck in my time warp.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05Talk Dirty, I don't think.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Trumpets, I don't recognise, so I'm going to say Want To Want Me.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Want To Want Me is the right answer, Well done, Tony. Spot on.
0:17:12 > 0:17:13Kevin, over to you.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Which of these musicals was written by Jonathan Larson?
0:17:20 > 0:17:24Blood Brothers is a Willy Russell thing. I can't...
0:17:24 > 0:17:28Wicked is Stephen somebody, I believe and anyway,
0:17:28 > 0:17:32I'm pretty sure that Jonathan Larson wrote Rent.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Rent is correct. Two out of two.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37So, Tony, you need to get this one right.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40In Mozart's opera the Magic Flute
0:17:40 > 0:17:45which character does Tamino fall in love with? Is it...
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Tamino is T-A-M-I-N-O.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54I probably have seen this opera, to be honest, but I tend to just
0:17:54 > 0:17:57close my eyes and listen to the music a lot of times when I go.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00So I'm just going to have a total guess and say Papagena.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02See if Kevin knows. Is he right?
0:18:02 > 0:18:03I think it's Pamina.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05It is actually Pamina.
0:18:05 > 0:18:10Tony, sorry, so Kevin has taken the round, as he does tend to do.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12And you've been beaten by our Egghead,
0:18:12 > 0:18:14so you won't be in the final round. Please come back to us,
0:18:14 > 0:18:17both of you and we will play the last round before the final.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23All right, so Lucky No. 7 have lost the lead guitar.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27And the Eggs have lost a brain as well and let's see how we go.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29The next subject is Sport.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31So, who would like this?
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Oh, well, we're up against it now.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39- I definitely haven't a clue with Sport.- Nor, Ronnie.
0:18:39 > 0:18:42- You've probably got more a clue than Ronnie.- No, Ronnie!
0:18:42 > 0:18:45It's Ronnie or Gill and neither of you like sport.
0:18:45 > 0:18:46Absolutely.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50- On you go.- It's got to be you, Gill, to leave Ron just for...
0:18:50 > 0:18:52- All right. OK.- Right, it's got to be Gill.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54By process of elimination, it's Gill.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56- OK, so you're not particularly into sport, Gill?- No.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59Against...? Well, who doesn't look like they're into sport over here?
0:18:59 > 0:19:02You've got Dave or Pat. Two lads.
0:19:02 > 0:19:07- Dave.- Don't you think, go for Dave? - Whatever.
0:19:07 > 0:19:12- Tremendous Knowledge Dave. - OK, yeah.- Go for Dave, yes.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15I'm sensing your trepidation.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18So Gill from Lucky No. 7 versus Tremendous Knowledge Dave
0:19:18 > 0:19:21from the Eggheads and please take up your positions.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26So sport is not particularly your thing here, Gill.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28- No, it couldn't almost be a worse category.- Oh, dear.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30So we had some strategy,
0:19:30 > 0:19:33- but it just got knocked out of shape a bit, did it?- Yes.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36But you like ballroom dancing, I understand.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38I like Latin American ballroom dancing, yes, uh-huh.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42So I'm just thinking, from my little knowledge, I should know what,
0:19:42 > 0:19:44is that the American Smooth and all that kind of thing?
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Well, we do things like cha-cha-cha, the rumba,
0:19:47 > 0:19:51salsa but also some ballroom, quickstep, waltz, a mixture.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54You have to give me some tips, I think.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57OK, Gill, would you like to go first or second?
0:19:57 > 0:19:58Oh, I'll just go first, yes.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Don't worry, we've already seen Lisa fall over.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Who stepped down as captain of the Australian cricket team
0:20:08 > 0:20:10in August, 2015? Is it...
0:20:14 > 0:20:18Well, it's going to have to be a guess.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21I'm not even sure if any of those names, well,
0:20:21 > 0:20:24I'm being drawn to possibly Steve Waugh
0:20:24 > 0:20:29for no particular reason, so I'm just going to go for Steve Waugh.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30Dave, is she right?
0:20:30 > 0:20:32I think it's Michael Clarke.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34Michael Clarke is the answer. Sorry.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36OK, over to you Tremendous Knowledge Dave.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39By what score did England defeat West Germany in the
0:20:39 > 0:20:43final of the 1966 football World Cup? Is it...
0:20:47 > 0:20:50England - four. West Germany - two.
0:20:50 > 0:20:514-2 is correct.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Back to you, Gill.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56In which rowing event did Steve Redgrave
0:20:56 > 0:21:00win three Olympic gold medals? Was this...
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Well, I have heard of Steve Redgrave.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14I think...I'm thinking he maybe was, it was just him and
0:21:14 > 0:21:18another rower, so I'm going to go for the coxless pair.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Coxless pair is your answer. Let's try Eric.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22- You're the sporting person on this team.- No, I'm not...
0:21:22 > 0:21:25- Who's the sporting person?- Tony. - I think that's correct, yes.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Tony says it's correct. Your husband says it's correct.
0:21:28 > 0:21:29It better be.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32- It's right. Well done.- Finally.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36Anyone guess on this side who the other one was?
0:21:36 > 0:21:40- Matthew...- Pinsent.- That's right.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42OK, Dave, your question.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Which of these women is a left-handed tennis player?
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Left-hander.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56The one that I'm instantly drawn to who's left-handed in this case
0:21:56 > 0:22:00is Monica Seles and that's my answer, Monica Seles.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Monica Seles is the right answer.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04OK, Gill, back to you.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06You've got to get this one right to stay in.
0:22:06 > 0:22:12Which golfer won his first Major in 2015 at the US PGA championship?
0:22:18 > 0:22:21Again, it's going to have to be a guess.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24I'm not even thinking of a name that's standing out
0:22:24 > 0:22:28although I'm sure everyone else knows.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35I'm going to say Jason Day.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37- Is she right, Dave?- Yes!- Yay!
0:22:37 > 0:22:40You got it right. So you got two out of three.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43If Dave gets this one wrong, we go to Sudden Death.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47Here we are. The American Deontay Wilder
0:22:47 > 0:22:50is a famous name in which sport, Dave? Is it...
0:22:53 > 0:22:57I've got a name in my head. I've got...
0:22:58 > 0:23:00I'm just going to have to go for it.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03It's ringing a bell with boxing so that's my answer, boxing.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06Boxing is the right answer, well done, Dave.
0:23:06 > 0:23:07Sorry, Gill, you did fine there,
0:23:07 > 0:23:09you got two out of three. What about that?
0:23:09 > 0:23:12- Better than I thought.- On another day that would be enough, so
0:23:12 > 0:23:14bad luck, you're not in the final round
0:23:14 > 0:23:17and if you both come back to us, we will play that final now.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21So this is what we have been playing towards.
0:23:21 > 0:23:22It is time for our final round,
0:23:22 > 0:23:25which as always, is General Knowledge.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:23:27 > 0:23:30won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34So, Eric, Gill and Tony from Lucky No. 7 and also Lisa
0:23:34 > 0:23:38from the Eggheads, would you please now leave the studio?
0:23:40 > 0:23:44Shirley and Ronnie, you are playing to win Lucky No. 7 £2,000.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47Judith, Kevin, Dave and Pat, you are playing for something that
0:23:47 > 0:23:50money can't buy, which is to just
0:23:50 > 0:23:53steady and restore the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58This time the questions are all General Knowledge
0:23:58 > 0:24:00- and you can confer, OK?- OK.
0:24:00 > 0:24:01So Lucky No. 7,
0:24:01 > 0:24:05the question is, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:24:05 > 0:24:08And Shirley and Ronnie, would you like to go first or second?
0:24:08 > 0:24:09First, please, Jeremy.
0:24:13 > 0:24:14Shirley, Ronnie,
0:24:14 > 0:24:16good luck to you both. Here we go.
0:24:16 > 0:24:17Your first General Knowledge question.
0:24:17 > 0:24:23What mode of high-speed transport is France's TGV? Is it...
0:24:28 > 0:24:31- TVG is a train, isn't it?- Train, please, Jeremy.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Train is correct. TGV.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36OK, Eggheads. In the UK,
0:24:36 > 0:24:39Alsatian is another name for which breed of dog?
0:24:44 > 0:24:45- ALL:- German Shepherd.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48- Are we happy with that, German Shepherd?- Yes.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50That's German Shepherd.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52German Shepherd is the right answer.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55So, fairly brisk so far.
0:24:55 > 0:24:56Take your time.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Keep getting them right, that's all you have to do.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03In Greek mythology, which of these creatures was killed by Heracles?
0:25:03 > 0:25:04Is it...
0:25:09 > 0:25:12Can you name the person again, Jeremy?
0:25:12 > 0:25:16In Greek mythology, which of these creatures was killed by Heracles?
0:25:16 > 0:25:18- Heracles.- Heracles.
0:25:19 > 0:25:23THEY MUMBLE
0:25:23 > 0:25:27- It's either Minotaur or a Chimera. - That's what I'm thinking.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30I'm just trying to think of the legend.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Yeah, I would be happy to go with, what are you thinking, Minotaur?
0:25:33 > 0:25:36Minotaur, yes, we'll go with Minotaur, please.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Let's see if you're right. Eggs?
0:25:38 > 0:25:40- No, the Nemean Lion.- The lion.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42One of the labours, one of the
0:25:42 > 0:25:4312 labours of Heracles.
0:25:43 > 0:25:44Oh, it was one of the labours.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Nemean Lion is the right answer.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49So, chance for the Eggheads to pull ahead here.
0:25:49 > 0:25:53What shape is the pasta, conchiglie? Is it...
0:25:55 > 0:25:58And I'll spell... Let me just spell conchiglie.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01C-O-N-C-H-I-G-L-I-E.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05- Yeah.- Shell, as in conch.- OK?
0:26:05 > 0:26:07That's shell, Jeremy.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09Shell is the right answer, well done.
0:26:09 > 0:26:112-1, which means you need to
0:26:11 > 0:26:12get this one right.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Good luck, Challengers.
0:26:15 > 0:26:16Which of these films has been
0:26:16 > 0:26:21described as one of the biggest box office flops of 2015? Is it...
0:26:25 > 0:26:28I'm pretty confident it's Fifty Shades Of Grey.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Pretty confident on that one?
0:26:30 > 0:26:34- Why are you thinking that? Have you heard of Tomorrowland?- Yes.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36- Have you heard of that one?- Yeah.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39- And Minions.- Uh-huh, I know Minions, yeah. It's popular.
0:26:39 > 0:26:43- Are you pretty confident? - Will we go with that?
0:26:43 > 0:26:45Fifty Shades Of Grey, please, Jeremy.
0:26:45 > 0:26:46Fifty Shades Of Grey.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Now, I have the feeling that that was actually quite successful.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52I mean, I don't know how we judge these things, I don't know.
0:26:52 > 0:26:53What would you say, Eggheads?
0:26:53 > 0:26:55Well, I went to my local
0:26:55 > 0:26:56cinema to see another film
0:26:56 > 0:26:58and they were literally queueing
0:26:58 > 0:27:00- around the block. - To see Fifty Shades?- Yeah, yeah.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Are you sure that wasn't you in the queue, Kevin?
0:27:02 > 0:27:03Well, maybe they thought
0:27:03 > 0:27:06I was in it, I don't know.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08It was like, "A friend of mine went to the cinema and..."
0:27:08 > 0:27:10So what do you think the answer is,
0:27:10 > 0:27:11- guys?- Tomorrowland.
0:27:11 > 0:27:12Minions came from nowhere
0:27:12 > 0:27:14and is now the second-highest
0:27:14 > 0:27:16- grossing animated film ever.- Ah.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18- In no time at all. - I fear they are right.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20The answer is not Fifty Shades Of Grey, I'm sorry,
0:27:20 > 0:27:22the answer is Tomorrowland, so there
0:27:22 > 0:27:24is no way back for our Challengers
0:27:24 > 0:27:25and we have to say, congratulations,
0:27:25 > 0:27:26Eggheads, you have won!
0:27:32 > 0:27:34I see why you went for Fifty Shades Of Grey
0:27:34 > 0:27:37- because it got quite a knocking. - A mixed review.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40Mixed reviews is kind, yeah.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44But, anyway, it was not that, it was Tomorrowland, so there we are.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47- You've played well and not quite sneaked past them.- Well done.
0:27:47 > 0:27:52- What's it like playing this lot? - It's tough.- Daunting.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54It's easier watching it at home.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57And with the exception of the incident earlier to which
0:27:57 > 0:27:58we will not refer, Lisa.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01Do you think we could put this down to Shirley being really good,
0:28:01 > 0:28:04because, let's be fair, she was.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06They've played well today, I must say, so well done.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09Commiserations, Lucky No. 7, Sorry it wasn't lucky tonight.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them
0:28:11 > 0:28:13and here you are reigning supreme over quizland
0:28:13 > 0:28:15and getting a bit of a spring in your step.
0:28:15 > 0:28:19It does mean our Challengers don't go home with the £2,000 jackpot,
0:28:19 > 0:28:22so it rolls over to our next show. Eggheads, well done.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24Who will beat you?
0:28:24 > 0:28:25Join us next time to see
0:28:25 > 0:28:28if a new team of Challengers have the brains to do it, defeat them.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30£3,000 says they won't.
0:28:30 > 0:28:31Till then, goodbye.
