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 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:18 > 0:00:20The 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 > 0:00:29pit their wits against

0:00:29 > 0:00:33possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. They are the Eggheads.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35And pretty unbeatable, I reckon.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Pretty, yes. Unbeatable, mmmm.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39Challenging our resident quiz champions today

0:00:39 > 0:00:40are...

0:00:42 > 0:00:43..from Aberdeenshire.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45Now, this team have been friends for five years.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48They're all coaches at Ellon Rugby Club. Let's meet them.

0:00:48 > 0:00:51Hi. My name is Dean. I'm an insurance broker.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Hi, my name is Jeff and I'm an accountant manager.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hi. I'm Mike. I'm a survey engineer.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hi, I'm Gareth. I'm a Senior Fishery Officer.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Hi. I'm Doug. I'm a workshop technician.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03So, Dean and team, welcome.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05ALL: Hi.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07Rugby club is at the centre of this, Dean, is that right?

0:01:07 > 0:01:11It is. Rugby club is at the centre of all our activities.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13Our children, mostly, all play for the club.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15Which they have done for a number of years.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18We've known each other for about five or six years, guys?

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Yeah. And we're all coaches at the rugby club.

0:01:21 > 0:01:22We've got a lot of children we coach.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25Oh, I see. So it's your kids mainly who play?

0:01:25 > 0:01:29My son plays under-16 and S2, which is under-14.

0:01:29 > 0:01:34Jeffrey's... Jeffrey, sorry. Jeff's son plays in my team.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Gareth's son plays in the team below us. He's a head coach there.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Doug's team... Doug's son plays with Gareth's son.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43And Mike's son plays for the age group above us.

0:01:43 > 0:01:47And you're Egg Chasers so you're expecting to chase this lot today.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49I think we'll give them a run for their money.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51Are you quizzing? We've quizzed before.

0:01:51 > 0:01:53We've had a few rugby nights quizzing.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55We've never actually been together as a team of five.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57A few of us have been together before as a team.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00And we came second or third, did we, guys? Was it about second?

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Second. Second. Second, we came. Yeah.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04So not too sad. All right. Good stuff.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06Every day there is ?1,000 worth of cash

0:02:06 > 0:02:07up for grabs for our Challengers.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:02:10 > 0:02:12the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15So, Ellon Egg Chasers, the Eggheads have won the last four games.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18Which means there's ?5,000 to win today.

0:02:18 > 0:02:19Do you want to give it a go?

0:02:19 > 0:02:21Yes, please. Yeah. Yes. Brilliant.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Film TV.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28So which Ellon Egg Chaser would like this? Right, guys,

0:02:28 > 0:02:29who'd like to take Film TV?

0:02:29 > 0:02:32I'll take the Film TV. Douglas, no? Doug, you want to take that?

0:02:32 > 0:02:34Yes, I'll have a go.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36We'd like to put Doug forward for that, please.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39Doug, which Egghead would you like to take on? Any one of the five.

0:02:39 > 0:02:40Judith, please.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43You said that without hesitation.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46Right, Doug from Ellon Egg Chasers is going against our millionaire,

0:02:46 > 0:02:48Judith from the Eggheads.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Just to ensure there is no conferring, would you please

0:02:50 > 0:02:54take your positions in the legendary Eggheads Question Room?

0:02:55 > 0:02:57So, Doug, would you like to go first or second?

0:02:57 > 0:03:00I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy. Thank you.

0:03:03 > 0:03:04Here is your question.

0:03:04 > 0:03:08The TV drama Brideshead Revisited, starring Jeremy Irons

0:03:08 > 0:03:12and Anthony Andrews, was first shown in which year?

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Brideshead... I dinnae think it'll be 2001.

0:03:19 > 0:03:22That might be a bit late.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24And '81 might be just a bit too early.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26I'll take 1991.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29It was 1981.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32Longer ago than that.

0:03:33 > 0:03:34Judith.

0:03:34 > 0:03:38Laura Tobin and Tomasz Schafernaker are known for presenting

0:03:38 > 0:03:39which subject on television?

0:03:42 > 0:03:45I put Tomasz Schafernaker, cos I love his name,

0:03:45 > 0:03:49as a question of my own in a quiz that I did once.

0:03:49 > 0:03:51He's the weatherman,

0:03:51 > 0:03:54Tomasz Schafernaker. Laura and Tomasz are weather. Yes.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57Along with the great Carol Kirkwood. Mm. Of course.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59Smiley Carol. Love her.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01OK, back to you, Doug.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05Which Golden Globe-winning drama series stars Dominic West

0:04:05 > 0:04:07and Ruth Wilson in the lead roles?

0:04:12 > 0:04:14I don't think it's The Walking Dead.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17I think it's more of a couple programme there.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19Not sure it would be The Good Wife.

0:04:19 > 0:04:21I would actually go for The Affair.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23The Affair. Yes, it is The Affair. Well done.

0:04:23 > 0:04:27Well done. He's busy, old Dominic West, isn't he?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Ever since The Wire. Mm.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31What was his name, the character name?

0:04:31 > 0:04:33McNulty. He's McNulty. Jimmy McNulty.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35Yeah. Brilliant in that.

0:04:36 > 0:04:37Judith.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40Until his death in 2009,

0:04:40 > 0:04:44Ken Annakin was a leading figure in British films

0:04:44 > 0:04:45in which role?

0:04:48 > 0:04:52Ken Annakin? Yes. A-N-N-A-K-I-N.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55I'm sorry to say I've never heard of him.

0:04:57 > 0:05:01Maybe he, cos I haven't heard of him, he was a director.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Director is the right answer.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06Mm. Because you haven't heard of him, he's a director.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09If he was an actor, I might have heard of him more. Oh, I see.

0:05:09 > 0:05:10And if he was a critic,

0:05:10 > 0:05:12he's not really involved in the film business, is he?

0:05:12 > 0:05:14He's a journalist.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17Yeah, well, I suppose someone like Pauline Kael made a life

0:05:17 > 0:05:18out of films. Yes, I know.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21But I don't think of them as being in the film business.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23No? You may be right.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25OK, Doug.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27Angela Douglas, who played Princess Jelhi

0:05:27 > 0:05:31in Carry On Up The Khyber, was married to which film actor?

0:05:36 > 0:05:38I don't think it was Stewart Granger.

0:05:38 > 0:05:42Going by the year, again. I've watched quite a few Carry On films.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45And maybe John Mills... I think Kenneth More.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48I'll go for Kenneth More cos I think there's a good possibility

0:05:48 > 0:05:49it could be him.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52I love the way you say that. Kenneth Morrrre.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54Kenneth More is correct. Well done.

0:05:54 > 0:05:56Back on track, Doug. Well done.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58OK, Judith,

0:05:58 > 0:06:01if you get this right, though, you are in the final.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04Who played the title roles in the films Charlotte Grey

0:06:04 > 0:06:06and Veronica Guerin?

0:06:11 > 0:06:14I'm sure... Oh. It's...

0:06:14 > 0:06:17I've seen them both and I just don't understand why I don't know.

0:06:20 > 0:06:23I think it might be Renee Zellweger, but I mean...

0:06:23 > 0:06:25I'd be amazed. But still.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27You'd be amazed at your own answer? Yes.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29And you've seen them both?

0:06:29 > 0:06:31I've seen both films.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33Was there something blocking your view?

0:06:33 > 0:06:35LAUGHTER No.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37Just my memory.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39You didn't notice Cate Blanchett on screen at all?

0:06:39 > 0:06:42It wasn't Cate Blanchett. It was, Judith!

0:06:42 > 0:06:44Oh, honestly. Oh, honestly.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47Yeah, honestly. Cate Blanchett is the answer, sorry.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50You didn't get that right. But good for you, Doug.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52You're still in there.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54And we go to Sudden Death now.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56Gets a bit harder. I don't give you alternatives.

0:06:56 > 0:07:01In a 2015 programme, which British TV presenter gave President Obama

0:07:01 > 0:07:05lessons in survival techniques whilst trekking across Alaska?

0:07:07 > 0:07:08I think I know his...

0:07:08 > 0:07:11I know who it is, but I just can't get his name, Jeremy.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14It's right there. But I can't get his name. I'm sorry.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17It's just there. Sorry. I just can't get his name. Sure?

0:07:17 > 0:07:18You're passing?

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Pass, sorry.

0:07:20 > 0:07:21It's Bear Grylls.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23Bear Grylls, that was it.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28OK, Judith. For the round.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30Which Strictly Come Dancing judge...

0:07:30 > 0:07:32SHE LAUGHS

0:07:32 > 0:07:36..said, "It was like watching a stork who'd been

0:07:36 > 0:07:41"struck by lightning" after watching Jeremy Vine's jive?

0:07:41 > 0:07:43THEY ALL LAUGH

0:07:43 > 0:07:45Well, I saw that.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48Well, it must have been Craig Revel Horwood.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Cos he's the nasty one.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53Bless him. Craig Revel Horwood is the right answer.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Thank you for reminding me of that.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Judith, well done. You've taken the round.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Sorry about that, Doug.

0:07:59 > 0:08:00There we go, on Sudden Death.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03Beaten by our Egghead, Judith will be in the final.

0:08:03 > 0:08:07Please come back, or maybe just dance back to us here in the studio.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12Don't worry, Challengers. You've lost one brain from the final round.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15And the Eggheads have not lost any. But plenty of time.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17The next subject is History.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19Who would like this?

0:08:19 > 0:08:22Guys, who'd like to take History?

0:08:22 > 0:08:24Go for it, Mike? Is it me? Yeah.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27Was it me? I think it might've been you, Mike. Think it was you, Mike.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29Gareth, do you fancy that one? No, not at all.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32OK. I suppose it will be me. Yeah. You happy with that? Yeah.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34We'd like to put Mike forward, please, for History.

0:08:34 > 0:08:37OK, Mike goes forward. Our survey engineer.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39Against which Egghead?

0:08:39 > 0:08:43Not Kevin. Not Judith. Lisa? One of the other two.

0:08:45 > 0:08:49Go on, then. OK, we'd like to challenge Dave, please.

0:08:49 > 0:08:50Good. Tremendous Knowledge Dave.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53It is going to be Mike from Ellon Egg Chasers on History,

0:08:53 > 0:08:54taking on Dave.

0:08:54 > 0:08:58Banned from every pub in Manchester now. That must be an exaggeration.

0:08:58 > 0:08:59Just some of them. Some of them.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03For knowing too much for their general knowledge machines.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05Quiz machines, yeah. Quiz machines.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09Please go to our Question Room, our very own quiz machine now.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13So, Mike. History. Would you like to go first or second?

0:09:13 > 0:09:14Can I go first, please?

0:09:18 > 0:09:20OK. And here is your first question.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24Fort Laramie was an important outpost in the west of which

0:09:24 > 0:09:26country in the 19th century?

0:09:31 > 0:09:33I'm pretty sure I know this one.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35It wasn't Canada.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39And it wasn't Australia. So I'll go United States.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Yeah, USA. Quite right.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Dave.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Pytheas, spelled P-Y-T-H-E-A-S,

0:09:47 > 0:09:50who's said to have made history by circumnavigating

0:09:50 > 0:09:55the islands of Britain around 300BC, came from which civilisation?

0:09:58 > 0:09:59I have to go Greek.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01Greek is correct.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Mike, back to you.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06Philippa of Hainaut was the Queen Consort

0:10:06 > 0:10:08of which king of England?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15I have got no idea.

0:10:16 > 0:10:18Let's see if anything jumps out at me.

0:10:20 > 0:10:24I don't think it's going to be Richard II.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26I'll go down the middle. Edward III.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29Well done. You got it right. Edward III it is.

0:10:29 > 0:10:30Nice quizzing.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32OK, Dave. Back to you.

0:10:32 > 0:10:36When was the most recent year the River Thames froze sufficiently

0:10:36 > 0:10:40to hold a frost fair on it in London?

0:10:46 > 0:10:49I've never heard of a frost fair on the River Thames.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54It's going to have to be a guess.

0:10:54 > 0:10:551914.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59Let's see if your colleagues know. It's earlier, is it, Eggheads?

0:10:59 > 0:11:021814, I think. Is it a famous thing, the 1814 fair?

0:11:02 > 0:11:06Simply because it was the last one. They didn't know that at the time.

0:11:06 > 0:11:07But it turned out to be the last one.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09It's partly to do with climate change.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12And also, redesign of some of the river features.

0:11:12 > 0:11:16So there just wasn't the sufficient build-up of ice later on

0:11:16 > 0:11:18to be able to do it with any safety.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21So, 1814 was the last one.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24Interesting, isn't it? 1814 was the last one, Dave. OK.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26So it gives you a chance here.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29Mike, get this right and you're in the final.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33Borrowed by Ian Fleming for his fictional hero James Bond,

0:11:33 > 0:11:38which secret agent was referred to in Elizabethan England

0:11:38 > 0:11:40by the codename 007?

0:11:45 > 0:11:47Oh. Um...

0:11:47 > 0:11:49Pretty sure it's not Walter Raleigh.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Neither one of them are actually jumping out at me.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57But I'll go for John Dee, I think.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59What do you think, Dave?

0:11:59 > 0:12:00I think I'm out.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03You are out. Well done, Mike. Three out of three.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08John Dee. I feel like I need some more information on him.

0:12:08 > 0:12:09Dave, sorry, you've been knocked out.

0:12:09 > 0:12:12Mike, you're in the final. Come back to us, please, both of you.

0:12:14 > 0:12:18John Dee has been the subject of a musical by Damon Albarn.

0:12:18 > 0:12:23He was an alchemist and his beard was as white... As snow.

0:12:23 > 0:12:24..as snow. Mm.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26He was also a Hermeticist.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30It comes originally from Hermes, the Greek god, who was supposed

0:12:30 > 0:12:33to be the source of secret knowledge of all kinds, of mysteries.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36So he liked to know things no-one else knew? Yeah.

0:12:36 > 0:12:37That's a bit like you, Kevin.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Oh, thank you. I think you are a Hermeticist.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43Yeah, I think you'll wait a long time for the long, white beard.

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Ah, maybe so.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48All right, Ellon Egg Chasers. Well done. Well done, Mike.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51So you've lost a brain, but the Eggheads have lost one too.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54We play on, and the subject is Geography.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56Who would like Geography?

0:12:56 > 0:12:59That's going to be you, isn't it? That's you, Gareth?

0:12:59 > 0:13:01I'll go for it. Happy with that? It's Gareth.

0:13:01 > 0:13:06Gareth? Yeah. Against which Egghead? Can't be Judith or Dave.

0:13:06 > 0:13:11Chris. Chris. Chris or Lisa. Lisa if it's Australia. Yeah, maybe.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Up to you. I'll go with Lisa.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16I hope it's Australian. THEY LAUGH

0:13:16 > 0:13:17All right.

0:13:17 > 0:13:21So Gareth from Ellon Egg Chasers versus Lisa from the Eggheads.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23Will Australia come up?

0:13:23 > 0:13:25To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29So, Gareth, you're a Senior Fishery Officer,

0:13:29 > 0:13:30is that a fun job?

0:13:30 > 0:13:33Quite a good, fun job. I've been doing it a number of years now.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Got to travel all over Scotland.

0:13:35 > 0:13:39Worked in Scragsdale, the West Coast, Shetland

0:13:39 > 0:13:41and now in the North-East. It sounds great.

0:13:41 > 0:13:45And you have to stop people fishing where they shouldn't, basically?

0:13:45 > 0:13:47No, I'm more shore-based.

0:13:47 > 0:13:51So I deal with the big fishing trawlers when they come into port.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54How they've been fishing at sea and what they do

0:13:54 > 0:13:56when they arrive in port to land their catch.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58OK. Well, good luck on Geography.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00Would you like to go first or second, Gareth?

0:14:00 > 0:14:01I will go first, please.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06And here is your question.

0:14:06 > 0:14:10The fishing village and tourist attraction of Mevagissey

0:14:10 > 0:14:12is in which English county?

0:14:17 > 0:14:21It would be a fishing question, wouldn't it?

0:14:21 > 0:14:23Just thinking of fishing ports.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26I'm going to go with Cornwall for the fact that it's

0:14:26 > 0:14:29one of the hubs, apart from the north-east of England, for that.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31I will go with Cornwall, I think.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34Cornwall is the right answer. Well done.

0:14:35 > 0:14:36Lisa.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39Which of these cities lies on the Mississippi River,

0:14:39 > 0:14:41roughly 100 miles from its mouth?

0:14:45 > 0:14:49It ain't Seattle cos that's a fairly long way away from where

0:14:49 > 0:14:51you'd put the Mississippi.

0:14:52 > 0:14:53I'll try New Orleans.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55New Orleans is right. Well done.

0:14:57 > 0:14:58OK, over to you, Gareth.

0:14:58 > 0:15:04Sheremetyevo and Domodedovo are airports serving which capital city?

0:15:08 > 0:15:10HE MURMURS

0:15:12 > 0:15:16I'm going to rule out Vienna.

0:15:16 > 0:15:21Two airports. Significant size.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23I'm going to go with Moscow.

0:15:23 > 0:15:24Eggheads, is he right? Yes.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Yes, you're right. Well done.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30Lisa, to catch up.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33Which of these places in California is furthest south?

0:15:36 > 0:15:41Anything with relational geography in it is always just going to

0:15:41 > 0:15:43throw me completely.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48I'm trying to think about where your larger cities are

0:15:48 > 0:15:51in relation to each other.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53I don't know.

0:15:53 > 0:15:54I'm vaguely inclined towards Palm Springs,

0:15:54 > 0:15:56so I'll go with Palm Springs.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58Yeah, Palm Springs is right. Hey!

0:15:58 > 0:15:59Well done.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01Two each. And back to you, Gareth.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04The Queen Elizabeth National Park,

0:16:04 > 0:16:07incorporating parts of Lake Edward and Lake George,

0:16:07 > 0:16:09is in which African country?

0:16:14 > 0:16:20I'm trying to think which...countries have more lakes.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22I don't know it off by heart, straight away.

0:16:22 > 0:16:26I'm leaning towards Uganda.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28Uganda is my answer. I'm leaning towards Uganda.

0:16:28 > 0:16:29I'll go with Uganda, please.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31Absolutely right.

0:16:31 > 0:16:32Yeah.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34Is that because of what,

0:16:34 > 0:16:37the Great Lakes area would take you to Uganda, yeah? Yeah. Yes.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40All right, you've got three out of three. Well done, Gareth.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43Couldn't have done any better than that. Lisa, can you stay in?

0:16:43 > 0:16:47Which river flows to the sea at the Yorkshire port of Whitby?

0:16:50 > 0:16:53No, no, no! I can't remember.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Oh, it would be a Yorkshire question, wouldn't it?

0:17:00 > 0:17:04I have an idea that Swaledale is further west than Whitby.

0:17:04 > 0:17:05And I might be able to...

0:17:07 > 0:17:08..rule that out.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14I'm slightly more inclined to the Ouse, but I don't know why.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18Is the Ouse further down?

0:17:18 > 0:17:20I don't know. Logic will only get me so far with this.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23So I'll try the Ouse and hold me hands up.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26At least Barry's not here, eh?

0:17:26 > 0:17:27Dave?

0:17:27 > 0:17:29It's the Esk. The Esk.

0:17:29 > 0:17:33At least I got it down to the right two. Let's start with that.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35Yorkshire rivers. OK. So it's the Esk.

0:17:35 > 0:17:37And that's good new for you, Gareth. Well done.

0:17:37 > 0:17:40You're in the final round. Thank you.

0:17:40 > 0:17:41You have beaten Lisa,

0:17:41 > 0:17:44who will not be able to join the Eggheads in the final.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46The Challengers now have the advantage.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49So please come back to us. We'll play on.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Well, nice one, Gareth.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54How about that? Advantage to the Ellon Egg Chasers.

0:17:54 > 0:17:58They've lost one. The Eggheads have lost two brains

0:17:58 > 0:17:59from the final round now.

0:17:59 > 0:18:03And our next subject, and the last before the final, is Food Drink.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06So who wants this? It's one of you two.

0:18:06 > 0:18:10I think we decided if it was Food Drink, even though

0:18:10 > 0:18:11Gareth knows too much...

0:18:11 > 0:18:13Jeff. I think it should be Jeff.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16Jeff? I'll take Food Drink. All right? Yep.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19Account manager from Ellon against either Kevin or Chris.

0:18:19 > 0:18:22All the best. JEFF LAUGHS

0:18:22 > 0:18:25Who do you think we should put up for Food Drink?

0:18:25 > 0:18:28Kevin. INDISTINCT CONVERSATION

0:18:28 > 0:18:30We'll go for Kevin, please.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Oh, OK. No surprise. All right,

0:18:32 > 0:18:37so Jeff from Ellon Egg Chasers taking on Kevin from the Eggheads.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40To ensure there's no conferring, please go to our Question Room.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44So I gather you've got a new bakery business running from your home?

0:18:44 > 0:18:47That's right. We do, yes. It's my wife who set it up.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49Jeff, what are you making? Bread or what?

0:18:49 > 0:18:52Mainly cakes. Cupcakes and wedding cakes as well.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54Brilliant. So, is it fun?

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Most of the time, yes.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59I guess there are times when you get overwhelmed by demand, are there?

0:18:59 > 0:19:02A lot of orders that come in at certain times of the year, yes.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04That sounds like a great thing. Good luck with that.

0:19:04 > 0:19:05Thanks. To you and your wife.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Jeff, would you like to go first or

0:19:07 > 0:19:10second on what must be a good subject for you, Food Drink?

0:19:10 > 0:19:11I'll go first, please.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16OK, here is your question.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19What is the L in a BLT sandwich?

0:19:22 > 0:19:25I'm pretty sure I know this one. It's definitely not limburger.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27Definitely not lemon. It's lettuce.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29Lettuce is correct, of course.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31Kevin.

0:19:31 > 0:19:35Which of these traditional Russian recipes is a type of thin pancake?

0:19:39 > 0:19:42Two of them I don't recognise at all.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45The one that I know is a type of pancake is blini.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47Blini is right. Well done.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49Jeff.

0:19:49 > 0:19:53What is jaggery, as traditionally used in Indian cookery?

0:19:56 > 0:20:00Jaggery... I can't say that I've heard of it before, to be honest.

0:20:00 > 0:20:04I would... I feel I'd probably rule out tea.

0:20:04 > 0:20:08And I think I'd rule out sugar as well. So I'll go with herb.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10It sounds like a herb or a spice, doesn't it?

0:20:10 > 0:20:11It's actually sugar.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13Sorry.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15Kevin, to take the lead.

0:20:15 > 0:20:20The pasta called orecchiette takes its name from the Italian

0:20:20 > 0:20:21for which body part?

0:20:25 > 0:20:27It's the ear.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31Orecchiette is named after the ear.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33You sound like you've had it, have you?

0:20:33 > 0:20:37I'm sure.. I've had most pasta types at one time or another.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39So I'm sure I have, yes.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42There's ears and little ears.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44There's so many different varieties of pasta.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47There's a story about a young man goes to his mum and says,

0:20:47 > 0:20:49"I'm getting married." And she says, "You can't get married.

0:20:49 > 0:20:55"What about the pasta I cook?"

0:20:55 > 0:20:59"What about my orecchiette?"

0:20:59 > 0:21:04"I can speak to you like that. What about my pasta?

0:21:04 > 0:21:06"because you're not Italian."

0:21:06 > 0:21:09LAUGHTER

0:21:09 > 0:21:12SINGSONG: I made Judith laugh.

0:21:12 > 0:21:13LAUGHTER

0:21:13 > 0:21:14OK.

0:21:14 > 0:21:17Jeff, you've got to get this one right to stay in.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19What is a Super Tuscan?

0:21:22 > 0:21:25I think I'm going to rule out...wine.

0:21:25 > 0:21:29Cos I don't think I've heard of a Super Tuscan wine before.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31Um...

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Same for cheese, actually. I'll go with sausage, I think.

0:21:34 > 0:21:39Let's see if Kevin knows this. Kevin?

0:21:39 > 0:21:45The word super does sound like it could be a sausage of some kind.

0:21:50 > 0:22:02Only one correct answer. So Kevin will be in the final round.

0:22:02 > 0:22:08It is time for our final round. As always, it's General Knowledge.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10are not allowed to take part.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12So, as I mentioned, evenly balanced.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15Jeff and Doug from the Ellon Egg Chasers,

0:22:15 > 0:22:17and also Dave and Lisa from the Eggheads,

0:22:17 > 0:22:19would you please now leave the studio?

0:22:21 > 0:22:25Well, here we are. Dean, Mike and Gareth playing for the jackpot.

0:22:25 > 0:22:29Dean, it says here that you do an impression of a dripping tap.

0:22:29 > 0:22:31I will try. My mouth's a bit dry.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34My kids'll be loving me doing this. I'll try my best.

0:22:34 > 0:22:38HE POPS CHEEK

0:22:38 > 0:22:42OK. So you are playing to win the Ellon Egg Chasers ?5,000.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45Chris, Judith and Kevin, you're playing for something that

0:22:45 > 0:22:47money can't buy, which is the Eggheads' reputation.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53This time the questions are all General Knowledge.

0:22:53 > 0:22:57You can confer, gentlemen.

0:22:57 > 0:23:00Simple as that. Would you like to go first or second?

0:23:00 > 0:23:04We've gone first so far.

0:23:04 > 0:23:05First, please.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10Here we go then. Your first question.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14Which term refers to a pictorial symbol intended to represent

0:23:14 > 0:23:15a whole word?

0:23:20 > 0:23:24It's not histogram. Histogram's maths.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26I think it's logogram. It's logo.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29You agree with that? Yeah. You happy with that?

0:23:29 > 0:23:31We'll go for the middle one. Logogram.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33Logogram is the right answer.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35Eggheads.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38The area surrounding the coastline of the eastern part of which

0:23:38 > 0:23:41sea is known as the Levant?

0:23:44 > 0:23:46Mediterranean. Yeah. Mediterranean, yeah.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49East end of the Mediterranean. Where the Levantines come from.

0:23:49 > 0:23:52Yes. Yep. That's the eastern end of the Mediterranean, Jeremy.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55Yes, you're right. Well done, Chris.

0:23:57 > 0:23:58Your question, Challengers.

0:23:58 > 0:24:02What type of business is Hatchards in Piccadilly?

0:24:02 > 0:24:06Founded in 1797 and said to be the oldest of its kind in London.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13Instantly umbrella maker.

0:24:13 > 0:24:17But I thought umbrella maker, as a shop, makes umbrellas, obviously.

0:24:17 > 0:24:22And I thought that was just down from Tottenham Court Road.

0:24:22 > 0:24:23I'd have said umbrella or pawnbroker.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26I know there's definitely an umbrella shop, which is

0:24:26 > 0:24:28the oldest one in London, which is just down the road,

0:24:28 > 0:24:31between Tottenham Court Road and Holborn. Is that Piccadilly?

0:24:31 > 0:24:33That's not Piccadilly. That's what I'm saying.

0:24:33 > 0:24:36So... Well, it can't be umbrella maker then.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39It's called Bloomsbury, I think.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42If that's the oldest one in London, it must be bookshop.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45Bookshop. Charing Cross Road has all the bookshops in London.

0:24:45 > 0:24:49Pawnbroker then. Is there going to be a pawnbroker in Piccadilly?

0:24:49 > 0:24:52Piccadilly is a very old area of London, obviously.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54And pawnbroker is an old business.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56I'd go pawnbroker, personally.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58I'm happy with that. I'm not trying to talk you out of it.

0:24:58 > 0:24:59I don't know the answer.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02By process of elimination, we'll for pawnbroker?

0:25:02 > 0:25:04Yeah. I think so, yeah. Are you happy with that? Yeah.

0:25:04 > 0:25:05We don't really know.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08But after the discussion we've had, we'll go with pawnbroker.

0:25:08 > 0:25:10OK. Pawnbroker is your answer.

0:25:10 > 0:25:12It's not umbrella maker. It is bookshop.

0:25:12 > 0:25:13Oh!

0:25:13 > 0:25:15So, Eggheads,

0:25:15 > 0:25:18your question. Which England sports coach was appointed to the advisory

0:25:18 > 0:25:24board of the investment bank Goldman Sachs in Japan in 2015?

0:25:30 > 0:25:33The thing about Dave Brailsford, he's proved himself.

0:25:33 > 0:25:37Eddie Jones is new to the job on England coach. For rugby.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40Roy Hodgson is the football coach, isn't he?

0:25:41 > 0:25:45Yeah, I can't think of any reason why it would be Roy Hodgson.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49But the thing that worries me about Eddie Jones is that it said

0:25:49 > 0:25:51England, not English.

0:25:51 > 0:25:52Cos he's an Aussie.

0:25:52 > 0:25:56Yeah. Yes. It said England coach and he is the England Rugby Union coach.

0:25:56 > 0:26:00Yes. But before taking up the England job, he was coach of Japan.

0:26:00 > 0:26:04Oh! He coached them in the 2015 World Cup.

0:26:04 > 0:26:08So he's been in Japan. Yeah, so he's known to the Japanese.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11He's been in Japan a long time. But that doesn't mean it's not...

0:26:11 > 0:26:14But that makes sense. What's the balance of probabilities here?

0:26:14 > 0:26:16Eddie Jones?

0:26:16 > 0:26:17I think so, logically.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20Well, because of his pre-existing connections with Japan,

0:26:20 > 0:26:23and therefore his probably better understanding

0:26:23 > 0:26:24of Japanese business...

0:26:24 > 0:26:26if you're going to do business with Japan.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28We'd have to say Eddie Jones.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31I love the way you work, Eggheads. You're absolutely right.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33Eddie Jones it is.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36Two to them, one to you.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39You've got to get this one right or the contest is over. ?5,000.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41If you win the 5,000, it goes to the rugby club, I gather?

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Yes, it does. Yeah. All right. For the children.

0:26:44 > 0:26:46Let's hope.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48LAUGHTER

0:26:48 > 0:26:51They're not even susceptible to any of that. I thought I'd try.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53Honestly, they've had everything tried on them.

0:26:53 > 0:26:58Muhammad Yunas, who won the Nobel Peace Prize for pioneering

0:26:58 > 0:27:02the concept of micro-credit, is a citizen of which country?

0:27:06 > 0:27:08I've heard of this.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11I can't remember.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15For no reason at all, Egypt is coming into my mind.

0:27:15 > 0:27:19That's what I thought, but I'm thinking of the name. Yeah.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22I'd go with that. Yeah? I think so.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25I don't know. I don't know for sure.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27We don't actually know, to be honest.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30But we're leaning towards, down the middle, Egypt.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33OK, certainly sounds like it should be Egypt.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35We'll just check it with this lot.

0:27:35 > 0:27:36Bangladesh.

0:27:36 > 0:27:38Bangladesh is the right answer. I'm sorry.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42We have to say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49So commiserations to the Ellon Egg Chasers.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51You could always try and get this lot up for a charity quiz sometime.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54You can come and play rugby with us any time you like.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56LAUGHTER I've got a bad leg.

0:27:56 > 0:27:59The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02And they reign supreme over Quizland. No question.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05I'm afraid it means you won't be going home with the ?5,000.

0:28:05 > 0:28:08So we roll the money over to our next show.

0:28:08 > 0:28:12Eggheads, well done. Who will ever beat you?

0:28:12 > 0:28:13Join us next time to see

0:28:13 > 0:28:17if a new team of Challengers have the brains to do it, take them down.

0:28:17 > 0:28:20?6,000 says they won't. Till then, goodbye.
