These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:040:00:07

Together they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:100:00:11

arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:110:00:15

The question is - can they be beaten?

0:00:170:00:19

Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz Challengers

0:00:230:00:27

pit their wits against possibly

0:00:270:00:28

the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:280:00:30

They are the Eggheads.

0:00:300:00:32

Taking on our awesome quiz champions today are...

0:00:320:00:34

Now, this team are all members

0:00:370:00:38

of Saltford Tennis Club in Bristol and regularly quiz together

0:00:380:00:41

at their local pub, The Brassmill.

0:00:410:00:43

Let's meet them.

0:00:430:00:44

Hi, I'm Sally and I'm an occupational therapist.

0:00:440:00:48

Hi, I'm James and I work in public relations.

0:00:480:00:50

Hi, I'm Helen and I'm a charity administrator.

0:00:500:00:53

Hi, I'm Chris and I'm a printer.

0:00:530:00:56

Hi, I'm Julie. I'm an administrator.

0:00:560:00:58

-So, Sally and team, welcome. ALL:

-Thank you.

0:00:580:01:01

Good to see you. So it's mainly tennis that brings you together?

0:01:010:01:05

Yes, Jeremy. We've all played tennis at one point

0:01:050:01:07

for Saltford Tennis Club, the local club.

0:01:070:01:10

And we know each other through other activities too.

0:01:100:01:14

-Netball as well, I gather?

-Yeah, obviously only the women,

0:01:140:01:17

-but we've all played that.

-Well, I don't know. Isn't that...?

0:01:170:01:20

Could you play a bit of netball, Chris?

0:01:200:01:22

If I can get the skirt to fit, yes.

0:01:220:01:24

-Yes.

-Yeah, yeah.

-And other things too?

0:01:240:01:26

-Well, and we quiz a lot together.

-Ah!

0:01:260:01:29

OK, well, tell me about that.

0:01:290:01:31

Well, about twice a month, we try and do at the local pub quiz

0:01:310:01:35

-and we actually win a fair amount of the time.

-Brilliant.

0:01:350:01:40

And when you are asked questions in the pub, do you listen to them?

0:01:400:01:43

-LAUGHTER Cos...

-It helps.

0:01:430:01:46

We try to, we do try to.

0:01:460:01:47

Yeah, because we had some incidents in the last game where I think

0:01:470:01:50

you wouldn't mind me saying you just didn't listen to anything at all.

0:01:500:01:53

Well, I rescued them from one question

0:01:530:01:56

that somebody didn't listen to.

0:01:560:01:58

-And then got it wrong on the next.

-LAUGHTER

0:01:580:02:01

Anyway, they've had a little bit of a turbulence

0:02:010:02:04

in the last game or two.

0:02:040:02:06

Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash

0:02:060:02:08

up for grabs for our Challengers.

0:02:080:02:10

However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:02:100:02:12

that prize money rolls over to our next show.

0:02:120:02:14

Now, Double Fault, despite their problems,

0:02:140:02:17

the Eggheads are on a streak - they've won the last nine.

0:02:170:02:21

It means £10,000 is here for you to win today.

0:02:210:02:25

Oh, no pressure(!)

0:02:250:02:26

-Would you like to give it a go?

-Yeah, we definitely want to.

0:02:260:02:28

All right. First head-to-head battle is on the subject of History.

0:02:280:02:31

-Oh.

-Who would like this?

0:02:310:02:34

-Oh, I'll try it then.

-I might have to go.

0:02:340:02:36

-Oh, yeah.

-One of you two?

0:02:360:02:37

-Me or who?

-I think Sally or Helen.

-Me or Helen?

-I'm not very good at...

0:02:370:02:41

-You can do geography later. OK, shall I do it?

-Yes.

0:02:410:02:45

-Against?

-OK, and against...

-Sally, team captain.

0:02:450:02:47

-Yes, I'm going to go for History.

-What do you reckon? CJ maybe?

0:02:470:02:50

-I don't know, what do you think?

-Yeah, um...

-Who?

0:02:500:02:52

I think CJ maybe, I don't know. Chris, CJ?

0:02:520:02:55

I'll... Let's try...Chris.

0:02:550:02:57

-You don't sound convinced.

-No, I'm not.

0:02:570:03:00

Yeah. So, OK.

0:03:000:03:02

Sally from Double Fault versus Chris from the Eggheads on History.

0:03:020:03:05

And just to make sure there's no conferring,

0:03:050:03:07

would you please take your positions in our famous Question Room?

0:03:070:03:11

Chris, I'm not sure I've ever asked

0:03:120:03:14

you what your favourite period of history is.

0:03:140:03:16

Probably the Edwardian era or, going back 50 years before that,

0:03:160:03:20

so the golden age of the likes of IK Brunel.

0:03:200:03:23

Oh, I thought you'd say Second World War,

0:03:230:03:25

but that's... By then, you were beginning to wane a bit, were you?

0:03:250:03:28

Well, I lived through a lot of the aftermath of that.

0:03:280:03:30

I mean, London, when I was a very small child,

0:03:300:03:32

was still in a shocking state from the bombing.

0:03:320:03:35

-Yeah.

-Mm.

0:03:350:03:36

-So it doesn't feel like history.

-No.

0:03:360:03:39

It was last week's news when I was a kid.

0:03:390:03:41

Amazing. All right, well, good luck, Sally. In this round,

0:03:410:03:44

-would you like to go first or second?

-I think I'd like to go

0:03:440:03:46

second, please, Jeremy.

0:03:460:03:48

OK, so, Chris, your first history question.

0:03:520:03:54

-The Stockton and Darlington Railway...

-Oh!

0:03:540:03:57

LAUGHTER

0:03:570:03:59

-Fix!

-JEREMY CHUCKLES

0:03:590:04:02

That's funny. You've given him the railway question.

0:04:020:04:05

-Oh... Right.

-He loves his trains.

0:04:050:04:08

..the world's first steam passenger railway was opened in which year?

0:04:080:04:12

Oh, dear, what a basic, elemental question.

0:04:170:04:19

-It's almost...

-HE SPEAKS IN GERMAN

0:04:190:04:23

It's 1825, Jeremy.

0:04:230:04:25

You can translate for us, if you like.

0:04:250:04:27

Well, it's actually a quote from Gotterdammerung.

0:04:270:04:29

"It almost shames me to mess about with these people."

0:04:290:04:32

LAUGHTER They've given you a question

0:04:320:04:35

-that's too simple.

-Yeah.

0:04:350:04:36

1825 is the right answer.

0:04:360:04:39

I'm afraid the chance of him getting that wrong, Sally,

0:04:390:04:41

was remote or slight.

0:04:410:04:44

Your question. What was Lenin's real surname?

0:04:440:04:47

Ooh, I think I actually know that one. Um...

0:04:510:04:54

And I'm pretty sure I don't...I'm not sure how to pronounce it,

0:04:540:04:58

but it's Ulyanov.

0:04:580:05:01

Ulyanov is right, well done. Good stuff.

0:05:010:05:04

Chris, which of these people used the ancient alphabet called Ogham?

0:05:040:05:08

It's a strange system of carving things on the edges of stones.

0:05:120:05:16

It was the Celts.

0:05:160:05:17

It was the Celts, well done. Two for you. Back to you, Sally.

0:05:170:05:20

In which century did the first known Viking raid destroy

0:05:200:05:24

the monastery at Lindisfarne?

0:05:240:05:26

I can't even think around this one.

0:05:300:05:32

I should know about the Vikings but when they destroyed Lindisfarne...

0:05:320:05:37

I don't think it was as late as the 8th century.

0:05:380:05:41

Um...

0:05:420:05:44

I'm going to go down the middle and say the 4th century but

0:05:440:05:47

I'm not confident in that at all.

0:05:470:05:49

All right, let me check with the Eggheads.

0:05:490:05:51

Eggs, can we do this with King Alfred or something or what?

0:05:510:05:54

-No, it's before Alfred.

-Before Alfred.

0:05:540:05:57

The Lindisfarne one was 793 so that's just in the 8th century.

0:05:570:06:03

Yeah. So Kevin says it was 793.

0:06:030:06:07

He's got it marked in his diary somewhere.

0:06:070:06:09

-8th century is the answer, Sally, sorry.

-OK.

-All right.

0:06:100:06:14

-Your question, Chris.

-Yeah.

0:06:140:06:16

If you get this right, you're in the final round.

0:06:160:06:18

What was the subject of the Victorian collecting craze called

0:06:180:06:22

pteridomania, that was reflected in the decorative arts of the period?

0:06:220:06:27

-I can spell it for you, if you want.

-Mm-hm.

0:06:300:06:32

It's P-T-E-R-I and then DOMANIA, all one word.

0:06:320:06:36

Ah, yes, they almost drove some species to extinction.

0:06:360:06:40

It was fern collecting, so it's ferns.

0:06:400:06:42

If you've got this right, you are in the final round.

0:06:420:06:45

So they had a lot of Victorian-style wallpaper and stuff with ferns on.

0:06:450:06:49

They used to go out literally hunting ferns and digging them up.

0:06:490:06:51

Yes, now you mention it. I can see it in my mind's eye.

0:06:510:06:54

Ferns is correct. Chris, you're in the final round. Well done.

0:06:540:06:57

-Sorry, Sally.

-OK.

0:06:570:06:59

Going second and the wrong answer and that bloomin' train question.

0:06:590:07:02

-Yeah.

-Did for you, I'm afraid.

-That was unfortunate.

0:07:020:07:05

Don't worry though. You can still captain your team

0:07:050:07:07

and we'll see what happens next. Please rejoin us.

0:07:070:07:09

So, awkward start for Double Fault.

0:07:110:07:13

They've lost a brain from the final round.

0:07:130:07:14

The Eggheads are still sitting there

0:07:140:07:16

hoping to continue this roll they're on.

0:07:160:07:18

-It's Geography now.

-Oh!

-Geography.

0:07:180:07:21

-Sorry, Sally.

-That was yours, Sally.

-I wanted to do geography.

0:07:210:07:25

-That's my favourite one.

-It's what you wanted, I'm sorry.

0:07:250:07:27

-Yeah, that's really...

-So who would like this?

-Helen?

0:07:270:07:30

-It would have to be Helen.

-OK.

0:07:300:07:32

-I think it would be Helen against CJ.

-Oh, gosh.

-All right.

0:07:320:07:38

I can tell you watch the programme.

0:07:380:07:40

So, Helen from Double Fault versus CJ,

0:07:400:07:42

who hopefully will not get lost on the way to the Question Room.

0:07:420:07:45

And to ensure there is no conferring, would you head there

0:07:450:07:48

and possibly someone can take CJ.

0:07:480:07:50

-So, Helen, you've lived all over the world.

-I have, yes.

0:07:520:07:55

My father was a helicopter engineer

0:07:550:07:57

and he started off working in Nigeria when he was younger

0:07:570:08:00

and then when I was born we went to Iran and Singapore and Abu Dhabi,

0:08:000:08:06

and then he ended up in Trinidad and Tobago when I was older.

0:08:060:08:10

So, yeah, I've travelled a lot and really enjoyed it.

0:08:100:08:13

-What a life.

-Yeah, it was really good.

0:08:130:08:16

Amazing wildlife and amazing people, cultures, yeah.

0:08:160:08:19

I was very privileged.

0:08:190:08:20

How about you, CJ? Can you match that?

0:08:200:08:22

-You've been to Amsterdam.

-I've been to Amsterdam.

0:08:220:08:25

-I think I've been to 52 countries so far.

-Oh, wow.

0:08:250:08:28

I want to get to 100 countries, that would be my aim.

0:08:280:08:32

OK, we are sort of landlocked here in the studio so it won't happen now

0:08:320:08:35

but we can range throughout the world with this particular category.

0:08:350:08:39

So, Helen, would you like to go first or second?

0:08:390:08:42

I'll go first please, Jeremy.

0:08:420:08:43

Here we are with your first question. Good luck.

0:08:460:08:49

Which word is taken from Dutch

0:08:490:08:51

and refers to a low-lying land reclaimed from the sea or a river?

0:08:510:08:57

-Polder.

-Oh, yeah. Bang on. That's not easy either.

0:09:020:09:06

I know what scree is. What's esker?

0:09:060:09:08

It's a hill formed by glaciers.

0:09:080:09:10

-A hill formed by glaciers?

-Mm-hm.

0:09:100:09:12

OK. CJ.

0:09:120:09:15

Which term refers to the arm of the Atlantic Ocean

0:09:150:09:19

that stretches between Canada and Greenland?

0:09:190:09:22

Uh, the Baltic Sea is in Northern Europe, the Bering Sea

0:09:270:09:31

is between Russia and Canada so I think that must be the Labrador Sea.

0:09:310:09:36

It is the Labrador Sea, well done. Helen, over to you.

0:09:360:09:39

The area called the Heavy Woollen District,

0:09:390:09:42

named for the fabric that was manufactured there,

0:09:420:09:45

is in which part of the UK?

0:09:450:09:47

South Lanarkshire.

0:09:510:09:53

OK, you went the way I wasn't expecting there.

0:09:530:09:56

What made you do that?

0:09:560:09:57

I think I remember it from history. Doing history O-level.

0:09:570:10:01

-It is West Yorkshire.

-Oh!

-Let's ask Barry.

0:10:010:10:03

When you're thinking of textiles you immediately think of Bradford

0:10:030:10:06

and Leeds, they were the great textile centres of the last century.

0:10:060:10:09

-And of course a lot of...

-They're in West Yorkshire.

0:10:090:10:11

..immigration came there as a result of needing the labour.

0:10:110:10:13

That's right, absolutely.

0:10:130:10:15

All right, so the answer is West Yorkshire there, Helen. Sorry.

0:10:150:10:18

CJ, you can take the lead.

0:10:180:10:20

In which city is the monument called Anna Livia,

0:10:200:10:23

that was once nicknamed the Floozie in the Jacuzzi?

0:10:230:10:26

Could you spell the name, please?

0:10:300:10:32

Anna is A-N-N-A and then Livia is L-I-V-I-A.

0:10:320:10:37

I haven't heard of Anna Livia but

0:10:370:10:39

I have heard of the Floozie in the Jacuzzi

0:10:390:10:41

And I thought it was closer to home.

0:10:410:10:46

To me it sounds more like an Irish sense of humour

0:10:460:10:49

and I thought it was closer to home so I'll try Dublin.

0:10:490:10:52

Dublin is the right answer. CJ takes the lead.

0:10:520:10:55

So Helen, you are where Sally was and you must get this question

0:10:550:11:00

right now to stay in.

0:11:000:11:02

The Gulf of Manfredonia forms part of the coastline of which country?

0:11:020:11:07

Oh, gosh. I've never heard of it.

0:11:100:11:13

Um... Could you spell Manfredonia?

0:11:130:11:17

Yeah. M-A-N-F-R-E-D and then O-N-I-A.

0:11:170:11:21

All one word, sort of as you'd expect.

0:11:210:11:24

OK. I really don't know but I'm going to go for Australia.

0:11:240:11:29

Could see why you did that but it's Italy.

0:11:300:11:33

Italy is the answer. CJ, well done, you are in the final.

0:11:330:11:37

Helen, sorry, you've been knocked out. Do please rejoin your teams.

0:11:370:11:41

Double Fault have lost two brains.

0:11:430:11:44

-This is what, two serves into the net?

-It is, yeah.

0:11:440:11:47

But don't worry, another serve, another game.

0:11:470:11:50

The Eggheads are all sitting there.

0:11:500:11:51

They were sitting there like that just the other day

0:11:510:11:54

and they lost, OK?

0:11:540:11:56

So you're not out of it, not by any means, as you know.

0:11:560:11:59

-Music is the next subject for you.

-Ooh, we like that one.

-Good.

0:11:590:12:02

-We like that.

-Who would like that?

-Chris.

-Chris again.

0:12:020:12:06

-I'll do music, Jeremy.

-Chris, OK. Against which Egghead?

0:12:060:12:10

-Let's just...decide.

-Not Chris or CJ.

0:12:100:12:12

-Judith?

-You're probably best...

0:12:130:12:16

OK, yeah. I'll play against Judith, please.

0:12:160:12:19

OK. So it's going to be Chris from Double Fault.

0:12:190:12:21

Judith, this is happening again.

0:12:210:12:23

-You've gone everyday Sport to everyday Music.

-Yeah, I know.

0:12:230:12:26

But you like melodies and rhythms.

0:12:260:12:28

Well, I do but I don't know their names.

0:12:280:12:30

Oh, yes, of course. That is the small problem.

0:12:300:12:33

To ensure there is no conferring, please go to the special room.

0:12:330:12:36

Chris, you must tell me about your band.

0:12:380:12:41

Yes, Jeremy.

0:12:410:12:42

We haven't performed for a while but my band is called Squeezed Middle

0:12:420:12:46

and I'm a big fan of Difford and Tilbrook.

0:12:460:12:50

Oh, right, who were in Squeeze. Of course, they were Squeeze.

0:12:500:12:53

And Jools Holland, of course.

0:12:530:12:55

We do a few Squeeze numbers,

0:12:550:12:57

Beatles, Stones, a bit of Paolo Nutini.

0:12:570:12:59

Yeah, I enjoy it. I'm a singer in the band, so yeah.

0:12:590:13:03

Good. I hope you enjoy making the music, that's fantastic.

0:13:030:13:07

And I'm also hoping that music doesn't veer into areas you're

0:13:070:13:10

-unfamiliar with.

-Me too, Jeremy.

0:13:100:13:12

So would you like to go first or second against Judith?

0:13:120:13:15

I'll go first, please.

0:13:150:13:16

And here is your first question, Chris.

0:13:200:13:23

Which of these patriotic songs includes the line,

0:13:230:13:26

"Thy choicest gifts in store"?

0:13:260:13:28

OK, Jeremy.

0:13:330:13:35

I haven't heard the line at all.

0:13:350:13:38

Admittedly, everyone seems to know

0:13:380:13:40

the first verse of the National anthem.

0:13:400:13:42

CJ SPEAKS SILENTLY

0:13:420:13:44

I am going to go for I Vow To Thee My Country.

0:13:440:13:47

OK, let's just work this one out.

0:13:480:13:50

-Team, do you know?

-The National anthem.

0:13:500:13:53

The National anthem.

0:13:530:13:54

-So where does it...?

-Uh!

-Let's just work this one out.

0:13:540:13:57

-I'm pretty sure it's the second verse.

-The second verse?

-Yes.

0:13:570:14:00

# Thy choicest gifts in store. #

0:14:000:14:03

-I can only do it if I sing it and I'm not doing it.

-You can say it.

0:14:030:14:07

Yeah, sorry, Chris. It is the National anthem.

0:14:070:14:10

OK, Judith.

0:14:100:14:13

The singer Muddy Waters was famous

0:14:130:14:15

for his performances in which musical genre?

0:14:150:14:17

Muddy Waters. Not comic opera, anyhow. Blues.

0:14:230:14:28

Blues is correct.

0:14:280:14:30

Chris, back to you.

0:14:310:14:33

"Whatever happened to Leon Trotsky?"

0:14:330:14:35

is the first line of the hit song by which band?

0:14:350:14:38

This is more like it, Jeremy.

0:14:420:14:43

-That is The Stranglers.

-Yeah!

-No More Heroes.

0:14:440:14:48

Of course. I bet you could sing the whole song.

0:14:480:14:50

I could do but I'm not going to now.

0:14:500:14:52

-# Whatever happened to...

-Leon Trotsky! #

0:14:520:14:56

What a song that is.

0:14:560:14:58

Judith, you would not have got that.

0:14:580:14:59

-No, I wouldn't. Of course not.

-OK.

0:14:590:15:02

Your question, Ms Keppel.

0:15:040:15:06

The composer Igor Stravinsky was born in which year?

0:15:060:15:10

Well, I think that must be 1882.

0:15:160:15:20

I think it must be 1882.

0:15:210:15:23

Born in 1882. You're right, Judith. Well done, two points to you.

0:15:240:15:27

All right, Chris, your question.

0:15:280:15:30

Because of the National anthem thing,

0:15:300:15:33

you've got to get this one right.

0:15:330:15:34

In 2005, which artist achieved the 1,000th number one single on

0:15:340:15:41

the official UK charts with One Night?

0:15:410:15:44

I know Elvis, he did One Night With You.

0:15:490:15:52

Um...

0:15:530:15:55

But that would've been a rerelease, obviously.

0:15:550:15:59

Huh! I'm going to have to...

0:15:590:16:02

..go with Cliff Richard.

0:16:040:16:06

OK. It's wrong.

0:16:080:16:10

The funny thing is, you said the right answer because

0:16:100:16:13

it is an Elvis song, you're right.

0:16:130:16:14

-# One night with you. #

-Yeah.

0:16:140:16:16

Elvis Presley is the answer, Chris, sorry.

0:16:160:16:18

Yeah, it was a reissue, obviously, of the old song.

0:16:180:16:22

Sorry about that. You've been knocked out by Judith. Well done.

0:16:220:16:25

OK, Chris and Judith, please come back and rejoin your teams

0:16:250:16:28

and we'll see what happens next.

0:16:280:16:30

So, tricky, Sally, at this point. Where are we in terms of tennis?

0:16:310:16:35

We need new balls, I guess. THEY LAUGH

0:16:350:16:38

We need a whole new match, actually.

0:16:380:16:40

Well, you're not out of it, that's the key thing.

0:16:400:16:42

With the tennis match, you can always come back.

0:16:420:16:45

Double Fault on this side have lost three brains.

0:16:450:16:47

The Eggheads have not lost any

0:16:470:16:49

and they are on this somewhat powerful run

0:16:490:16:51

so let's try and stop them.

0:16:510:16:52

The next subject is Film & TV.

0:16:520:16:55

Who would like this?

0:16:550:16:57

-Julie.

-You'd be good at this.

-Yes.

-Are you sure?

0:16:570:17:00

-Yes, are you sure?

-Yeah.

-Are you OK, James? Definitely.

0:17:000:17:04

-Against?

-Oh, right, let's go...

0:17:040:17:06

All right, Julie. You can have either Kevin or Barry.

0:17:060:17:09

Barry...

0:17:090:17:10

I think I'll take on Kevin, please.

0:17:100:17:13

So, Julie from Double Fault will be serving at Kevin from the Eggheads.

0:17:130:17:18

To ensure there is no conferring, please go to our Question Room.

0:17:180:17:21

Film & TV is the subject.

0:17:230:17:24

Julie, would you like to go first or second?

0:17:240:17:26

I'll go first please, Jeremy.

0:17:260:17:27

All right, Julie, good luck. Here is your first question.

0:17:310:17:34

The Greendale Rocket is a steam engine that has featured

0:17:340:17:37

in which children's TV programme?

0:17:370:17:39

Greendale I...

0:17:460:17:48

Well, usually you say this, it's never right

0:17:480:17:51

but I'm going to go with Postman Pat.

0:17:510:17:53

-Yes, you are right. Well done. The best-known of the three.

-Yeah.

0:17:530:17:57

Good strategy, actually, on question one.

0:17:570:17:59

Just pick the answer that's most obvious. OK, Kevin.

0:17:590:18:03

In which year was Casino Royale released, introducing Daniel Craig

0:18:030:18:07

as James Bond for the first time?

0:18:070:18:10

Well, the last of the Pierce Brosnan Bonds

0:18:160:18:20

was Die Another Day and that was 2002.

0:18:200:18:24

Then there was about a four-year gap

0:18:240:18:27

before Casino Royale came out with Daniel Craig. So it was 2006.

0:18:270:18:31

2006 is correct.

0:18:310:18:33

OK, Julie.

0:18:340:18:36

Which cult horror film is set on the fictional Hebridean island

0:18:360:18:40

of Summerisle?

0:18:400:18:42

Again, I am going with the gut, leaning towards The Wicker Man.

0:18:480:18:52

Let me see if you're right. Team, what do you think?

0:18:530:18:56

-Correct.

-She's right.

-Yeah, you're right.

-Whuf!

0:18:560:18:58

-Well done.

-Get in!

0:18:580:19:00

Wicker Man, get in!

0:19:000:19:02

All Right. Kevin, your question.

0:19:020:19:05

Which 1987 film had the famous tag line, "This time it's personal"?

0:19:050:19:10

I'm just trying...

0:19:160:19:18

I'm just trying to work out how 84 Charing Cross Road,

0:19:180:19:20

how that would work. Anyway...

0:19:200:19:22

I know it was a sequel of some kind so it must be Jaws - The Revenge.

0:19:220:19:29

Jaws - The Revenge is correct.

0:19:290:19:31

OK, Julie. Your third question. You're playing well, by the way.

0:19:310:19:37

Which country's film industry is known as Ouallywood?

0:19:370:19:41

And Oually is O-U-A-L-L-Y-W-O-O-D. Ouallywood.

0:19:410:19:48

Ouallywood.

0:19:520:19:53

Not one I'm familiar with, I must admit. Um...

0:19:540:19:58

And they all begin with M so...

0:19:580:20:00

I'll have to go with the gut.

0:20:020:20:04

It doesn't make any sense but I'm going towards Mongolia.

0:20:040:20:07

-Your inklings have let you down on this occasion. It is Morocco.

-Oh.

0:20:090:20:14

I'm just trying to work out why Morocco. Kevin, can you tell us?

0:20:140:20:17

I can only assume that the leading studios must be based

0:20:170:20:20

-in a place that has that name.

-Oually.

-Of Oually-something, yeah.

0:20:200:20:25

Two out of three for you.

0:20:250:20:26

Julie, let's see whether that keeps you in.

0:20:260:20:29

Kevin's third question for a place in the final.

0:20:290:20:31

Which of these TV dramas was created by Russell T Davies?

0:20:310:20:35

Well, of those I know...

0:20:390:20:41

Well, I think I know that he did Queer As Folk.

0:20:410:20:45

Queer As Folk is correct, Kevin.

0:20:460:20:48

Three out of three, as you so often do.

0:20:480:20:50

You are in the final. Sorry, Julie.

0:20:500:20:52

-That's OK.

-There you go.

0:20:520:20:54

-He does tend to do that, I'm afraid.

-Yeah.

-Brave of you to take him on.

0:20:540:20:58

Somebody has to do it. Come back to us and we will play the final round.

0:20:580:21:02

We heard of Ouallywood there.

0:21:040:21:06

We haven't done a lot of Ouallywood questions before.

0:21:060:21:11

I've now found out, just so you know. Ouarzazate is this city.

0:21:110:21:16

-Oh, Ouarzazat.

-Ouarzazat or Ouarzazate becomes Ouallywood.

0:21:160:21:19

That's a place where they filmed a lot of things like Living Daylights,

0:21:190:21:22

Gladiator, Kingdom Of Heaven.

0:21:220:21:24

It's in the south, on the edge of the desert. I've been there.

0:21:240:21:28

-It gives you a lot of... You've been there?

-Yes.

-Well, go on.

0:21:280:21:30

Well, there's nothing more to say about it, I've been there.

0:21:300:21:33

We want to hear everything.

0:21:330:21:35

It's in the south, on the edge of the desert.

0:21:350:21:38

There are Kasbahs there which are like villages all in one building.

0:21:380:21:42

And they get renewed every spring because they're made entirely of mud

0:21:420:21:46

and in the winter they all get washed away.

0:21:460:21:48

And so they pat them with bits of mud and put them back together.

0:21:480:21:53

The whole village lives in this one building. It's fascinating.

0:21:530:21:58

And when you were there, was that the film you were filming

0:21:580:22:01

which we can't talk about?

0:22:010:22:02

Uh-ha! No, it was a very long time ago.

0:22:020:22:05

Where you're starring opposite Bradley Cooper, that one?

0:22:050:22:08

Oh, golly, yes. I didn't want to talk about that.

0:22:080:22:11

You mustn't say anything until it is properly out.

0:22:110:22:13

-Mustn't say anything at all.

-No, nothing at all, Judith.

0:22:130:22:16

All right, so now we know. This is what we've been playing towards.

0:22:160:22:19

It is time for the final round,

0:22:190:22:20

which, as always, is General Knowledge.

0:22:200:22:22

But I'm afraid, those of you who lost your head-to-heads,

0:22:220:22:25

won't be allowed to take part in this round.

0:22:250:22:27

So, Sally, Helen, Chris and Julie from Double Fault,

0:22:270:22:31

would you please leave the studio?

0:22:310:22:33

OK, James, big moment.

0:22:340:22:36

You're playing to win Double Fault £10,000 and your fellow competitors

0:22:360:22:40

will be very grateful if you win.

0:22:400:22:42

CJ, Barry, Chris, Judith and Kevin, you are playing for something

0:22:420:22:46

that money can't really buy, which is the Eggheads' reputation.

0:22:460:22:50

As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:22:500:22:53

This time, the questions are all General Knowledge. You can confer.

0:22:530:22:56

Sorry, that doesn't help you.

0:22:560:22:58

So, James, the question is,

0:22:580:22:59

can you with your one brain defeat these five in a famous victory?

0:22:590:23:03

-We'll see.

-That's the right attitude.

0:23:030:23:06

-Good luck. Do you want to go first or second?

-I'll go second.

0:23:060:23:10

And here is your first question, Eggs.

0:23:120:23:15

In televisions that are referred to as being 4K,

0:23:150:23:19

4K refers to roughly 4,000 what?

0:23:190:23:22

-It's pixels. It's the definition of a screen.

-The resolution.

0:23:260:23:30

-Are we all happy with pixels?

-Yes.

0:23:300:23:33

Yes, these are televisions that have suddenly come to the fore.

0:23:330:23:36

There's not really much point in buying them because although

0:23:360:23:40

they're 4K and they show 4,000 pixels, which is the right answer,

0:23:400:23:43

there's not many programmes that are put out in 4K.

0:23:430:23:47

So you don't actually get a chance to see them very much.

0:23:470:23:49

But the answer is pixels.

0:23:490:23:51

Pixels is the right answer.

0:23:510:23:53

-I should've gone first, I've got a 4K TV.

-You've got a 4K TV?

0:23:530:23:55

-Probably should've taken that one.

-Are you able to see it OK?

0:23:550:23:58

I think it's one of those things, like Barry said,

0:23:580:24:00

technology advances so much that you buy it and it might be the best

0:24:000:24:04

thing then but it's always going to improve.

0:24:040:24:07

-Is it almost too good for your eyes?

-The picture quality is fantastic.

0:24:070:24:10

Particularly for watching sport or something like that,

0:24:100:24:13

the picture quality is very good.

0:24:130:24:15

Cos I met the BBC person in charge of HD and I said,

0:24:150:24:18

"Mine doesn't seem to be HD."

0:24:180:24:19

And she worked out it was cos I was sitting too far away from the TV.

0:24:190:24:23

She said, "If you sit closer, it will look better."

0:24:230:24:26

-That is a cheaper way of doing it.

-Get a smaller telly.

0:24:260:24:30

Or get a new pair of glasses.

0:24:300:24:32

OK, James. Sorry, we're mucking around here. £10,000 to play for.

0:24:320:24:36

Which company announced that they would cease making their Defender

0:24:360:24:40

model in early 2016 after 67 years of continuous production?

0:24:400:24:46

Well, out of all of those, mostly logical name would suggest

0:24:520:24:55

it would be Land Rover so I'll go for Land Rover.

0:24:550:24:58

Spot on, well done. Land Rover it is.

0:24:580:25:00

Eggheads, your second question.

0:25:020:25:03

The state of Oregon has an unusual flag with the state seal on one side

0:25:030:25:09

and a golden image of which creature on the other?

0:25:090:25:12

-The Beaver State, isn't it

-Yeah, it's the Beaver State, Oregon.

0:25:160:25:19

-Sheldon Cooper presents them with flags. Ha-ha-ha!

-Yes.

0:25:190:25:24

Oregon is known as the Beaver State

0:25:240:25:26

so I think that might be a clue of what's on the flag.

0:25:260:25:28

The answer is beaver.

0:25:280:25:30

Beaver is the right answer.

0:25:300:25:31

The striped skunk would be an unusual one, wouldn't it?

0:25:310:25:35

OK, James, back to you. To catch up, your question.

0:25:350:25:39

The term vespertine refers to which part of the day?

0:25:390:25:43

I've not heard it before, vespertine.

0:25:460:25:48

Perhaps wrongly, I'm going to rule out midday.

0:25:500:25:52

Vespertine. I'll try, just a guess, evening.

0:25:540:25:59

-Eggheads, is he right?

-Yes.

-Vespers is an evening service.

0:25:590:26:02

Vespers is the keyword, as Barry says, evening service.

0:26:020:26:05

so evening is right. Two out of two.

0:26:050:26:08

You've given them the initiative by letting them go first.

0:26:080:26:10

If they get this right, there's going to be pressure on you

0:26:100:26:13

so keep focused there.

0:26:130:26:15

Stay in 4K mode.

0:26:150:26:16

Eggheads, the famous epitaph that reads,

0:26:180:26:21

"When you go home, tell them of us

0:26:210:26:23

"and say for your tomorrow we gave our today,"

0:26:230:26:26

is named after which Second World War battle?

0:26:260:26:29

-It's the Kohima epitaph.

-It can't be Monte Cassino.

0:26:330:26:37

No. There's no epitaph I know for Arnhem.

0:26:370:26:40

-We all happy which Kohima?

-Yes.

0:26:400:26:43

We believe the answer to that is Kohima.

0:26:430:26:45

A little-known battle, unfortunately.

0:26:450:26:48

And you're right. Kohima is correct. So three out of three.

0:26:480:26:51

Can you get three out of three or is the contest over?

0:26:510:26:54

James, this is your moment.

0:26:540:26:55

If you get it right, we go to Sudden Death.

0:26:550:26:57

£10,000 we are playing for.

0:26:570:26:59

Here is your question. Tetum is an official language in which country?

0:26:590:27:05

That's spelt T-E-T-U-M.

0:27:050:27:07

Don't know again. I've not heard it. I'm trying to think of the...

0:27:100:27:14

..the language and if there is any link.

0:27:150:27:18

I don't know so I have to guess.

0:27:180:27:21

I will have a guess at the Philippines.

0:27:210:27:25

Understood. Big country. Which one is it?

0:27:270:27:30

I think it's East Timor.

0:27:300:27:31

-East Timor.

-Yeah.

0:27:310:27:32

Which is, I was going to say, a smaller country

0:27:320:27:34

but maybe there's a lot of...

0:27:340:27:36

You wouldn't think they'd have their own language there.

0:27:360:27:38

It's a very small country but they

0:27:380:27:40

have got their own language, yeah.

0:27:400:27:42

So the answer is East Timor and we have to say congratulations,

0:27:420:27:46

Eggheads, you have won.

0:27:460:27:48

-James, sorry, you were chasing them there.

-Yeah.

0:27:530:27:56

And then the third question correct

0:27:560:27:58

always puts the pressure on, doesn't it?

0:27:580:27:59

-Yeah. I'd not heard of that before.

-I hadn't either. Tetum.

0:27:590:28:03

Tetum, East Timor. OK.

0:28:030:28:05

Commiserations to you and your team, Double Fault.

0:28:050:28:07

Great to see you all. Thanks for playing.

0:28:070:28:10

The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them

0:28:100:28:12

and this winning streak continues with a bit of swagger as well.

0:28:120:28:16

It does mean that you won't be going home with the £10,000

0:28:160:28:19

so the money rolls over to our next show.

0:28:190:28:21

Eggheads, well done again.

0:28:210:28:24

I don't think you're ever going to lose.

0:28:240:28:26

Join us next time to see

0:28:260:28:28

if a new team of Challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:280:28:31

£11,000 says they won't do it. Till then, goodbye.
