0:00:05 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:12 > 0:00:16arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:18 > 0:00:21The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz Challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33They are the Eggheads.
0:00:33 > 0:00:37Is that build up good enough for you?
0:00:37 > 0:00:41OK, taking on our awesome quiz champions today are...
0:00:47 > 0:00:51Let's meet them.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Jess and I'm an IT problem manager.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Ruairidh and I'm head of applications development.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Cat and I'm the office manager of a wine shop.
0:01:00 > 0:01:10Hi, I'm James and I'm a financial underwriter.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12we've all come together at various times.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14I think Ruairidh's been in the group the longest.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17James and myself, Jess and Cat are more recent additions, so...
0:01:17 > 0:01:20And I gather if you win, you're going to spend the money
0:01:20 > 0:01:21on something special?
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Yes, our van is nearing the end of its shelf life -
0:01:24 > 0:01:26which we use to transport our set around -
0:01:26 > 0:01:29so we'll be - hopefully, if we're lucky enough to win -
0:01:29 > 0:01:33we'll be sending the winnings towards buying a new van.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35And La Triviata, because...?
0:01:35 > 0:01:37It's just a play on our love of trivia
0:01:37 > 0:01:39and our love of amateur theatre.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41OK, all right, well, good luck
0:01:41 > 0:01:43getting the money to buy the new van.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46Every day there's ?1,000 of cash up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:48 > 0:01:51that prize money rolls over to our next show.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Now, La Triviata, the Eggheads have won the last three games,
0:01:54 > 0:01:56they've got a little bit of a roll.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57Quite modest roll, really.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00And it means ?4,000 is here for you to win.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02So, do you want to try?
0:02:02 > 0:02:03Absolutely. Yes, we do.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05OK, the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Who would like this?
0:02:08 > 0:02:11I think we said that was... Jess? Yeah, OK.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15It's going to be Jess. Against which player on this side?
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Take on Kevin, Jess, you can do it.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20OK. Kevin, please.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Oh, right, I like that.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Sometimes people hurl themselves at Kevin
0:02:24 > 0:02:26and he's knocked out early,
0:02:26 > 0:02:29he's never expecting to play this early.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33So, Jess from La Triviata versus Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36It's a good gambit, let's see what happens now.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Go to the Question Room, please.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40OK, well good luck, Jess, here.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Music it is, would you like to go first or second against Kevin?
0:02:43 > 0:02:45I'd like to go first, please.
0:02:48 > 0:02:49And here we go.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52The lyrics of which nursery rhyme tell the story of a monk
0:02:52 > 0:02:58who's urged to wake up after oversleeping for morning prayers?
0:03:06 > 0:03:11I...I'm trying to think now.
0:03:11 > 0:03:12I don't think it's Humpty Dumpty,
0:03:12 > 0:03:16because he's a big egg on a wall.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23I've heard Bobby Shafto, but I can't remember the lyrics to that,
0:03:23 > 0:03:24I can't remember the words.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Frere Jacques...
0:03:27 > 0:03:33I can't speak French, but I think frere might be brother.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36So a monk who'd fallen asleep on his prayer.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41No, I can't even remember any of the French lyrics,
0:03:41 > 0:03:44and I don't think I'd know what they meant anyway.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46So, I think I'm going to go for Frere Jacques, though.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50Well done, Frere Jacques. You checked that out so carefully.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Frere Jacques, Frere Jacques, dormez-vouz?
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Are you sleeping? Kevin, your question.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59The song Anchors Aweigh is sometimes regarded as the unofficial anthem
0:03:59 > 0:04:03of which branch of the US military?
0:04:07 > 0:04:12Well, I think there's a bit of a clue in the Anchors there.
0:04:12 > 0:04:13That's the Navy.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Navy is correct.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18They may get harder.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Jess. Calvin Harris made UK chart history
0:04:21 > 0:04:25in 2013 with nine top ten hit singles from which album?
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Oh, Calvin Harris...
0:04:36 > 0:04:39That's quite a lot of hit singles
0:04:39 > 0:04:42and I can't think of many Calvin Harris songs.
0:04:42 > 0:04:49But I think he had a song Ready For The Weekend,
0:04:49 > 0:04:52but I'm not sure if that was the name of the album.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57Because I think it's the name of a song that he did,
0:04:57 > 0:05:00and it could also be the name of the album,
0:05:00 > 0:05:03I think I'd have to go for Ready For The Weekend.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Let's see if your team-mates know, is she right?
0:05:05 > 0:05:07I think it might be 18 Months.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Yeah, 18 Months it is, Jess, actually. Sorry.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11And you used brilliant logic there.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13OK, Kevin,
0:05:13 > 0:05:16which character in the stage musical Guys And Dolls
0:05:16 > 0:05:20falls in love with Sarah Brown of The Salvation Army?
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Well, it's one of the two male leads,
0:05:31 > 0:05:32so it's not a Nicely Nicely Johnson,
0:05:32 > 0:05:36who is a character in it, but he's...
0:05:37 > 0:05:39..he's one of the more minor characters.
0:05:40 > 0:05:45I think it's Sky Masterson,
0:05:45 > 0:05:49who was played by Marlon Brando in the film.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52I think he's the one who gets involved with The Salvation Army.
0:05:52 > 0:05:53So, it's Sky Masterson.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55You are right, Sky Masterson it is.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57So, Kevin takes the lead here.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Jess, you need to get this one right to stay in.
0:05:59 > 0:06:04Fado, F-A-D`O, is a form of melancholic singing,
0:06:04 > 0:06:07especially associated with which European country?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15SHE SIGHS
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Melancholic singing might be what I'm doing after this.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Um, oh. Fado.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Fado.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Anyway, I think fado sounds as though it could
0:06:28 > 0:06:32be a word perhaps from any of those countries, to me.
0:06:32 > 0:06:37Perhaps less Portuguese-sounding,
0:06:37 > 0:06:40but you never know.
0:06:41 > 0:06:47I think I'll go for, and it's going to be have to be a guess...
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Bulgaria.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Yeah, it would be kind of obscure, wouldn't it?
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Did I hear the right answer from your team?
0:06:55 > 0:06:58I think it might be Portugal. Yeah, they're all saying Portugal.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Portugal is the answer, Jess, sorry. No.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Not one I'd heard of, I must say. Tough question.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05I was going to say that one. Well done, Kevin.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07Don't worry. Well done. It's early days here.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09Jess, you have been knocked out, Kevin is in the final.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12But there we are, much to play for, please come back to us.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17OK. La Triviata have lost a brain.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Little trivial injury.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22But don't want to lose too many more.
0:07:22 > 0:07:23The Eggheads are still sitting there.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26I feel them revving, actually.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28I think they had a bad loss a few days ago
0:07:28 > 0:07:31and they get very stuck in to trying to build up a run,
0:07:31 > 0:07:32so you need to stop them.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34And Geography is how you've got to do it.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37That's the next subject. Who would like this?
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Who was the back up on Geography? Back up on Geography?
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Were you back up for Geography? It definitely wasn't me.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44It wasn't me, definitely wasn't me. I can't be...
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Do you want me to go for it? Go on.
0:07:46 > 0:07:47I think you'll probably be our best shot.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49What if History comes up, though?
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Chances are it won't, though, if Geography's come up.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Go for it, Ruairidh. I have no idea.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Yes, why not. OK, Ruairidh is going to play for us.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01Ruairidh from La Triviata versus anyone but Kevin.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Maybe Pat or Lisa?
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Go for Lisa. Shall we go for Lisa?
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Yeah. Sorry, Lisa. We'll go for Lisa.
0:08:07 > 0:08:08Can we go for Lisa, please? Of course.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12So, Ruairidh from La Triviata versus Lisa on Geography.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14We had problems with Australia once, didn't we?
0:08:14 > 0:08:16We've had problems with Australia more than once,
0:08:16 > 0:08:17but they were a while ago.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19They were a while ago, we've put them behind us.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23So please go to the Question Room and we'll see what happens.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Ruairidh, tell us about what you do for the theatre group.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28I do a bit of everything.
0:08:28 > 0:08:34I started off performing, and then it got me singing,
0:08:34 > 0:08:39and most recently I've been doing direction and production.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Lisa, are you in any am-dram excitement?
0:08:41 > 0:08:43I used to be before my daughter was born,
0:08:43 > 0:08:46it was my sort of main thing all the way through school and university,
0:08:46 > 0:08:48right up to, yeah, a few years ago now.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50OK, so kindred spirits on Geography.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Ruairidh, do you want to go first or second?
0:08:52 > 0:08:54I'll go first, please.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Here we go with your first question.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02The Thames Barrier is designed to prevent London
0:09:02 > 0:09:07being flooded by storm surges moving up from which body of water?
0:09:12 > 0:09:17Well, I think London's probably a little bit far away
0:09:17 > 0:09:21from Ireland to be the Irish Sea.
0:09:21 > 0:09:26And as I live in Cardiff, I kind of know where the Bristol Channel is,
0:09:26 > 0:09:29and that would be some flood if it came from the Bristol Channel,
0:09:29 > 0:09:32so I'm going to punt for the North Sea.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Yeah, North Sea.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36OK, Lisa, your question.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39In mainland Europe, the Netherlands is bordered by Germany
0:09:39 > 0:09:41and which other country?
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Well, I never have been very spatially aware
0:09:48 > 0:09:49when it comes to these things,
0:09:49 > 0:09:52but out of the three, I think it must be Belgium.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Of the three, it is Belgium, well done.
0:09:55 > 0:09:56OK, back to you, Ruairidh.
0:09:56 > 0:10:02Which country is the third largest in South America by area?
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Ah, right.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10Chile is long and narrow...
0:10:12 > 0:10:17Peru...also quite large,
0:10:17 > 0:10:23Columbia's nice and squat and round.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26And, well, I'm not really sure,
0:10:26 > 0:10:30I wish I'd been to South America like some of my friends.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34However, I'm going to say Columbia.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Three is Peru, I'm afraid.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Peru is the third largest.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41OK, Lisa, your question.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Greenock is a port on which Scottish firth?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Well, Greenock, I think,
0:10:52 > 0:10:57is not so far from our little home here in Glasgow.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Which would make sense
0:11:01 > 0:11:03for it to be the Firth of Clyde.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Firth of Clyde is quite right.
0:11:05 > 0:11:09Well done. OK, she's ahead, Ruairidh.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Try and stop her with this answer.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13In mountaineering and hill bagging,
0:11:13 > 0:11:16what name is given to Scottish hills
0:11:16 > 0:11:22that are between 2,000 and 2,499ft high
0:11:22 > 0:11:28that have a drop of at least 115m on all sides?
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Ah, right.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38I'm probably going to horribly embarrass myself.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41I'm originally from the north-west coast of Scotland,
0:11:41 > 0:11:44which is surrounded by beautiful mountains.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49But I'm pretty sure Brians and Trevors
0:11:49 > 0:11:51would be a bit odd.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54And so, I think I'm going to go for Grahams.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57Grahams is right, well done.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Well done, Ruairidh.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01So, you have two,
0:12:01 > 0:12:02Lisa has two,
0:12:02 > 0:12:03you've held her off,
0:12:03 > 0:12:06but will she take the round now?
0:12:06 > 0:12:08Believed to be over 3,000 years old,
0:12:08 > 0:12:11the statues known as the Colossi of Memnon
0:12:11 > 0:12:15are a popular tourist attraction in which country?
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Memnon was a big name in Egypt.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26It may or not be as simple as that.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29They may, of course, have originated in Egypt and moved them.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33I think I might be in danger of overthinking
0:12:33 > 0:12:35if I start thinking about where they've moved to.
0:12:35 > 0:12:39But I will, as I don't know, just say Egypt.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41If you're right, you're in the final round.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43Do you think she's right, Ruairidh?
0:12:43 > 0:12:45I think she's probably right. She's probably right.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47In fact, definitely right. Egypt it is.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50Well done, Lisa, you're in the final. Sorry, Ruairidh,
0:12:50 > 0:12:52been knocked out on Geography by our Egghead.
0:12:52 > 0:12:53Please return to us and we'll play on.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58So, as it stands, La Triviata have lost a second brain
0:12:58 > 0:13:00from the final round.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03The Eggheads have not lost any. How annoying is this?
0:13:03 > 0:13:05The next subject is Film TV.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Who would like this? I think James
0:13:08 > 0:13:11is our man for Film TV. Shall I, yeah?
0:13:11 > 0:13:14James, financial underwriter,
0:13:14 > 0:13:16against which of the Eggs?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Judith, maybe? Judith? Judith.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Can we take on Judith, please? OK.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23You certainly can. And I think you'd be pleased about that. Hm.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26So, it's James from La Triviata versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Please go to the Question Room.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Well, Judith, I was thinking that you're kind of an answerer
0:13:31 > 0:13:33on the Film TV round, aren't you?
0:13:33 > 0:13:35In what way?
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Well, in the sense that you're a bit of British TV history.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41I suppose so. I'm first person to win Millionaire, yeah.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44All right, so good luck, James, against our millionaire.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47Would you like to go first or second? Go first, please.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53And here we go. Film TV, James, and your question.
0:13:53 > 0:13:59In which year was the TV series Lovejoy first broadcast?
0:14:02 > 0:14:03OK.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08I'm pretty sure that it's the later of the three.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11I'm hoping it's not '76.
0:14:11 > 0:14:12It's definitely not '66
0:14:12 > 0:14:16because there's no way that Ian McShane is that old.
0:14:16 > 0:14:17I used to watch it as a kid.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19And I grew up in the '80s and '90s.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21I'm going to go with '86.
0:14:21 > 0:14:251986 is correct. Well done. Ian McShane as well, you're right.
0:14:27 > 0:14:32Judith, Waldorf Salad and The Kipper And The Corpse are the titles
0:14:32 > 0:14:34of two episodes from which classic sitcom?
0:14:38 > 0:14:40Um...
0:14:40 > 0:14:42Well, I don't think it would be The Office.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45It sounds very Fawlty Towers.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47The catering went wrong somewhere.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50I think it's probably Fawlty Towers.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53It's definitely Fawlty Towers.
0:14:53 > 0:14:54James, your question.
0:14:54 > 0:14:59Who won an Oscar for Best Director for the 2006 film The Departed?
0:15:04 > 0:15:07Definitely not Tarantino or Danny Boyle.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Martin Scorsese, cos I know that he waited years to win one.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Martin Scorsese is the right answer.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15And it's your kind of film, I think, is it?
0:15:15 > 0:15:17I've seen it. It's a good film, yeah.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20I do enjoy lots of different types of films but, yeah,
0:15:20 > 0:15:23a big Scorsese fan.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25OK, well done. You got it right. Scorsese.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26So, Judith, your question.
0:15:26 > 0:15:31Which actress played the role of Elsie Tanner in Coronation Street
0:15:31 > 0:15:34between 1960 and 1984?
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Elsie Tanner?
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Elsie Tanner. I was thinking it was someone completely different.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45I was thinking of the one in the hairnet.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47Elsie Tanner. I think that's Pat Phoenix.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Pat Phoenix is right.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Yup. So well done, Judith.
0:15:51 > 0:15:52Your question, James.
0:15:52 > 0:15:56The first advert shown on commercial TV in Britain was for what
0:15:56 > 0:15:57type of product?
0:16:01 > 0:16:03HE SIGHS
0:16:03 > 0:16:07Uh, I'm a bit young to remember adverts starting.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09This is going to be a bit of a guess.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11I don't think toothpaste.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14So soap or perfume.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17I'm going to go with perfume, but it's a bit of a guess.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20Sorry, James. Toothpaste.
0:16:20 > 0:16:21Oh, no.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Yeah, yeah. Not perfume.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26So Judith has a chance to take the round
0:16:26 > 0:16:28and book her place in the final.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31Which European actress' roles
0:16:31 > 0:16:35have included Persephone in the Matrix series,
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Mary Magdalene in The Passion Of The Christ,
0:16:38 > 0:16:43and Lucia Sciarra in the 2015 James Bond film Spectre?
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Well, it's not Marion Cotillard, I don't think.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59I think it's Monica Bellucci.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02If you've got this right, you're in the final round.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04I thought you were going to struggle here.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06I never saw any of those films, so I am a bit.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08It's a bit of a guess. You sound so certain.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10And you are so right.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Monica Bellucci is the answer. Well done.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15You're in the final. James, I'm sorry, you've been
0:17:15 > 0:17:17knocked out by our Egghead there.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19So you won't be in the final round.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21Is it getting difficult for our competitors?
0:17:21 > 0:17:22They've still got time.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25But it's running out. Please come back, rejoin us.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27So, as it stands,
0:17:27 > 0:17:30La Triviata have lost three brains from the final round.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33The Eggheads are still there and intact.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36Let's see what you can do now. It is Politics.
0:17:38 > 0:17:39So Cat or Andrew?
0:17:39 > 0:17:43You read the paper, Cat. I read the paper. I'll take it.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45OK, Cat. Against which Egghead?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47You can have either Dave or Pat.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51I imagine they're both equally good. I suspect they're just the same.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53I suspect they're very good.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Should you try and take Pat? Pat.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57The consensus is Pat. Yeah, go for Pat.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01Cat from La Triviata versus Pat, on Politics, from the Eggheads.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03To ensure there's no conferring,
0:18:03 > 0:18:06would you please take your positions in the Question Room.
0:18:06 > 0:18:15So how did you get nominated for Politics there, Cat?
0:18:15 > 0:18:16First, please.
0:18:20 > 0:18:45Here we go.
0:18:47 > 0:18:53Which term is often used to refer to the grassroots
0:18:58 > 0:19:02I think they are the rank and file.
0:19:02 > 0:19:07You're right. Rank and file.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10What is the first name of the charity worker with
0:19:10 > 0:19:13the surname Batmanghelidjh, who founded Kids Company
0:19:13 > 0:19:16which controversially went into liquidation in 2015?
0:19:41 > 0:19:44OK, Pat. To catch up.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Who was Lyndon B Johnson's Republican rival
0:19:47 > 0:19:51in the 1964 US presidential election?
0:19:57 > 0:20:01Eisenhower had had his two terms as president and had retired.
0:20:01 > 0:20:02So he's out of the picture.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07I think it must be Barry Goldwater.
0:20:07 > 0:20:12He was senator of Arizona or somewhere like that.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15Somewhere in the Rockies.
0:20:15 > 0:20:16Quite right wing.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19I think Nixon sort of laid low for a while
0:20:19 > 0:20:21and then came in after Johnson.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23I think it's Barry Goldwater.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Barry Goldwater is the right answer. Yeah, well done.
0:20:26 > 0:20:27All right, you're equal.
0:20:27 > 0:20:32Cat, third question has been crucial in previous rounds.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34Let's hope you've got a bit of luck here.
0:20:34 > 0:20:39The so-called Ward incident of 1948 caused a diplomatic
0:20:39 > 0:20:42incident between the United States and which other country
0:20:42 > 0:20:46when an American consul was held there under house arrest?
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Um...
0:20:52 > 0:20:55OK, not one I know.
0:20:55 > 0:21:00I know late '40s was quite turbulent for China.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02I'm...
0:21:02 > 0:21:04going to go with China.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06China is correct.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10Wow. OK. The Ward incident was between the USA and China.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12So, Pat, to catch up and stay in.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16Named after a UK private military company,
0:21:16 > 0:21:20the Sandline affair of the 1990s brought down the government
0:21:20 > 0:21:22of which Oceanic nation?
0:21:26 > 0:21:28The Sandline affair.
0:21:28 > 0:21:32Bringing down the government is a pretty major development.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36I don't think I can recall New Zealand's government being
0:21:36 > 0:21:38brought down by a scandal of that sort.
0:21:40 > 0:21:41I don't know very much about
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Papua New Guinea's government either.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46I know that Fiji has had quite a turbulent political past.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49I think it's had coups and rapid changes of government.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55Solely on the basis that Fiji has had quite a turbulent
0:21:55 > 0:21:57political path for a few decades...
0:21:59 > 0:22:01I think I'll go for Fiji.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Fiji is your answer? No, you are wrong.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06Oh. It is Papua New Guinea.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09So, Cat, you're in the final. Well done.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13Awesome. I was thinking he was going to get that.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Come back to us and we will play that final round.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21All right, so the Challengers here just pulling back.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25And now it's time for our final round, which, as always,
0:22:25 > 0:22:26is General Knowledge.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be
0:22:29 > 0:22:30allowed to take part in this round.
0:22:30 > 0:22:34So, Jess, Ruairidh and James from La Triviata
0:22:34 > 0:22:36and also Pat here from the Eggheads,
0:22:36 > 0:22:38would you please leave the studio?
0:22:40 > 0:22:41Andrew and Cat, good luck.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45You are playing to win La Triviata ?4,000 and buy that van.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Yes, hopefully so. Yes.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Right, Judith, Kevin, Dave and Lisa,
0:22:49 > 0:22:51you're playing for something that money can't buy.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53The Eggheads' reputation.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56As usual, I will ask each team three question in turn.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58This time they're all General Knowledge.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59And you are allowed to confer.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01So, La Triviata, the question is -
0:23:01 > 0:23:04can your two brains defeat these four over here?
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Who are just getting themselves back on the road.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09Andrew and Cat, would you like to go first or second?
0:23:09 > 0:23:10We'll go first, please.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Good luck to you. First question.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19Which international airport is located about three miles
0:23:19 > 0:23:20north of Crawley?
0:23:25 > 0:23:26Wow.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28I don't think it's Heathrow.
0:23:28 > 0:23:29I don't know. Um...
0:23:30 > 0:23:35No, my gut says Stansted. My first instinct was Stansted as well.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Cos I think Gatwick's...
0:23:37 > 0:23:38I went there recently
0:23:38 > 0:23:40and I can't remember seeing any signs for Crawley.
0:23:40 > 0:23:45So picture it. You're going up the M11. Yeah.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49I think it's Crawley. I think, first instinct was Stansted.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Should we go for that? Yep, let's go.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53OK. We'd like to go for Stansted, please.
0:23:53 > 0:23:54Stansted is wrong.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57The... Crawley is...
0:23:57 > 0:23:59I think it's Surrey, isn't it, Crawley?
0:23:59 > 0:24:00Sussex. Sussex, is it?
0:24:00 > 0:24:03So it's down the bit between London and Brighton,
0:24:03 > 0:24:05on the coast, basically.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08And that's where you find Gatwick. Not north of London.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10Eggheads.
0:24:10 > 0:24:14The theatre director Sophie Hunter married which actor in 2015?
0:24:19 > 0:24:21Cumberbatch. She's Mrs Ben C, yeah.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Benedict Cumberbatch, isn't it?
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Eddie Redmayne's wife is called Hannah Bagshawe.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27I couldn't tell you about Chiwetel's wife.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Benedict Cumberbatch. Yeah.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31We believe that's Benedict Cumberbatch,
0:24:31 > 0:24:32please, Jeremy.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Benedict Cumberbatch is right.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37OK, your question.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41In January 2015, which company broke the world record
0:24:41 > 0:24:44for the biggest quarterly profit ever made by a public company?
0:24:49 > 0:24:53Yeah. My instinct was Apple before I saw the options come up.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55I'm pretty sure it's not BP,
0:24:55 > 0:24:58cos oil companies have been having real problems lately.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00My first choice would be Apple.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Yeah, I would say...
0:25:02 > 0:25:05I mean, they're massively profitable. So yeah. Let's go. OK.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Let's go Apple. Go for Apple, please.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Apple is right. Well done.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11OK, Eggheads.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14In 2015, who became the first captain to lift
0:25:14 > 0:25:18the Men's Rugby Union World Cup twice when his team won the trophy?
0:25:23 > 0:25:25It's Richie McCaw, isn't it, Judith?
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Yeah. Richie McCaw. I think so.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29Yes? Yeah. Richie McCaw.
0:25:29 > 0:25:33Judith has told me the first captain was Richie McCaw.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36Yep, Judith was right on that.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Straightaway.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Well done. Richie McCaw is right.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44So they're ahead.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48At this juncture, with ?4,000 to play for, what we need -
0:25:48 > 0:25:51we really, really need - is a correct answer from you
0:25:51 > 0:25:53to keep that van in prospect.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56If you don't give me a correct answer, the contest is over.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59Which Asian country has the largest number of
0:25:59 > 0:26:01active volcanoes in the world?
0:26:06 > 0:26:08Take your time here.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10Which Asian country has the largest number of
0:26:10 > 0:26:12active volcanoes in the world?
0:26:14 > 0:26:16South Korea is on the Pacific ring of fire.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19I was going to say the same about Indonesia.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Yeah, but then I was going to say, I think...
0:26:21 > 0:26:26Although, is Indonesia a little bit more distal from the tectonic plate?
0:26:26 > 0:26:29Cos it comes down and it hugs the Pacific Rim.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33I was thinking that Indonesia is basically volcanic islands.
0:26:33 > 0:26:34Yeah.
0:26:34 > 0:26:38So assuming any of them are still active,
0:26:38 > 0:26:41that's going to be quite a lot of volcanoes.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43I'm pretty sure it's not Bangladesh. No.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45I knew obviously it was close to the tectonic plate
0:26:45 > 0:26:48cos of what happened in 2004. Exactly.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Would you be more drawn towards Indonesia?
0:26:52 > 0:26:54I would be drawn to Indonesia over South Korea.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56OK. But you're the captain.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59I'm going to bow to your wisdom on this one, Cat.
0:26:59 > 0:27:00Don't you blame it on me.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Can we go for Indonesia, please?
0:27:02 > 0:27:04I'm pleased you did. Indonesia is right.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07Got about 150 active volcanoes.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11OK, Eggheads, you can take the contest with this answer.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14If you get it right. Cos they dropped one earlier.
0:27:14 > 0:27:18Hertford Bridge, completed in 1914 and popularly known
0:27:18 > 0:27:23as the Bridge of Sighs, is a feature of which English university city?
0:27:26 > 0:27:32I walked underneath it many a time at university.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36We're going to go for Oxford, please, Jeremy.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40Oxford, you didn't veer towards... Kevin, you were quiet there.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42Were you thinking Cambridge?
0:27:42 > 0:27:46No. I mean, there is one at Cambridge, but...
0:27:46 > 0:27:48Mathematical Bridge, is it?
0:27:48 > 0:27:51Hertford Bridge is actually part of Hertford College. Yeah.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53It's Hertford College, which is at Oxford.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55And you were at Oxford? I was. But not at Hertford College.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57Judith, were you? No.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01I think we know what's happened here, don't we?
0:28:01 > 0:28:07Mm. They've got it right. Oxford is the answer.
0:28:11 > 0:28:17And commiserations. Lovely to see you.
0:28:17 > 0:28:22And reign supreme over Quizland.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24The money then rolls over to our next show.
0:28:24 > 0:28:28Eggheads, very well done.
0:28:28 > 0:28:34On a roll, aren't they? Join us next time to see
0:28:34 > 0:28:38We will have ?5,000 to say they don't.
0:28:38 > 0:28:49Till then, goodbye.
