0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz Challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32- And here they are - the Eggheads. - Hello.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34- Was that a big enough build-up?- Yes.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37- Cos you are not really modest, are you? ALL:- Well...
0:00:37 > 0:00:39It depends what you call modesty.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41No, you're not modest, take it from me.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43Taking on our awesome quiz champions today
0:00:43 > 0:00:46are the Drama Queens from Nottinghamshire.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52and regularly quiz together at their local, the Nags Head.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Let's meet them.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hello, I'm Annette and I'm a retired university librarian.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hello, I'm Tara and I'm a lawyer.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Hello, I'm Geoff and I'm an IT technician.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Hello, I'm Gill and I'm a solicitor.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Hi, I'm Sonya and I'm a team assistant.
0:01:09 > 0:01:14- So, Annette and team, great to see you. Thanks for coming.- Thank you.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16And tell us about the Nags Head, Annette.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20The Nags Head is very much a locals' pub, for local people.
0:01:20 > 0:01:25And so, four us here in the team, we quiz there regularly.
0:01:25 > 0:01:26We really like the quizzing,
0:01:26 > 0:01:29but I mean, we like the banter with the other teams as well.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31So, it's as much for the fun and the drink as well.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33And you are also part of the amateur players,
0:01:33 > 0:01:35- which is the key thing, isn't it? - That's right.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37We are very much part of the amateur players.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Between us, we all act, direct, produce
0:01:40 > 0:01:43and some of us all of the above.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46And what's the most ambitious thing you've done?
0:01:46 > 0:01:51We've done cabarets, we do pantomime every year, which we love.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54We also... Each May, we put on a production.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58We have an adult's production and a children's production as well,
0:01:58 > 0:02:02cos we've got equal number of children in the group as well,
0:02:02 > 0:02:04which is really good fun working with children.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07And I think they like working with us oldies as well.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08Good luck in this contest.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs
0:02:11 > 0:02:12for our Challengers, as you know.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15If you fail to defeat the Eggheads, that prize money rolls over
0:02:15 > 0:02:18to the next show. Now, quite a number of teams have come
0:02:18 > 0:02:20and failed to defeat them recently.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22They've actually won the last 12.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26So, we have £13,000 for you to win today.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28How about that? ALL MURMUR IN EXCITEMENT
0:02:28 > 0:02:32- Unlucky for some, 13, but who knows? - Hopefully unlucky for them.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Film & TV.
0:02:35 > 0:02:36Now, who would like this?
0:02:36 > 0:02:38- Well, not me.- Nor me.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Who wants to take this?
0:02:40 > 0:02:42- I'm thinking like Geoff or...- Yeah.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46- How are you on...? - Well, yeah, I can take a go at it.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50- No, I think you would be good at it, Geoff.- All right, yeah.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Who would you want to take on?
0:02:53 > 0:02:55- Can I take on Dave, please? - You can indeed.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Geoff from Drama Queens versus Dave from the Eggheads on Film & TV.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02To ensure there is no conferring, would you please take your positions
0:03:02 > 0:03:04in our famous Question Room?
0:03:05 > 0:03:08So, Geoff, Film & TV, would you like to go first or second?
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Can I go first, please, Jeremy?
0:03:13 > 0:03:15You certainly can. Here is your question.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18What are the first names of the TV presenting duo
0:03:18 > 0:03:21with the surnames Woodall and Constantine?
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Dawn and Jennifer, that's French and Saunders.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Mel and Sue, can't quite remember,
0:03:32 > 0:03:35but it's definitely Trinny and Susannah.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Trinny and Susannah is the right answer.
0:03:39 > 0:03:40OK, Dave.
0:03:40 > 0:03:46My Heart Will Go On was the love theme for which 1997 film?
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Well, you've put horrible things in my head now.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55I'm trying to forget this film.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Titanic.
0:03:57 > 0:03:58What, because you didn't like it?
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Not a fan at all.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Not a fan of the song either. Sorry.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Titanic is the right answer.
0:04:06 > 0:04:07Geoff, back to you.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09In Coronation Street,
0:04:09 > 0:04:12which of Gail's children has a daughter called Bethany?
0:04:16 > 0:04:18I don't watch Coronation Street,
0:04:18 > 0:04:21so this is going to have to be a total and utter guess.
0:04:22 > 0:04:27So, I'm going to go down the middle with David.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Judith, you don't watch Coronation Street, do you?
0:04:29 > 0:04:31- No.- I do.- Chris watches it.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32Dave watches it. Yeah?
0:04:32 > 0:04:33It's Sarah Lou.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35Sarah Louise is the answer.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Over to Dave.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40What was the real first name of Rex Harrison?
0:04:44 > 0:04:46I think it's Reginald Carey.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47Uh, I think it is.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49It's Reginald, anyway.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Reginald is right.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Reginald Carey Harrison.
0:04:53 > 0:04:54Geoff,
0:04:54 > 0:04:56you need this.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00Which of The Goodies had a small role as a computer operator
0:05:00 > 0:05:04in the 1971 film Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory?
0:05:09 > 0:05:15Again, I don't know. I would have to take a guess on this one
0:05:15 > 0:05:18and say it was Tim Brooke-Taylor.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20It was indeed Tim Brooke-Taylor. Well done.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22Nice bit of movie trivia.
0:05:22 > 0:05:23So you got two out of three.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26OK, Dave, this for the round.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Naomi Harris, who first played Ms Moneypenny
0:05:29 > 0:05:31in the 2012 film Skyfall,
0:05:31 > 0:05:35had a childhood role as Joyce in the TV series
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Simon And The...what?
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Don't know. Have not heard of this children's programme at all.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48I'm just wondering why worm is there.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52So that is unfortunately attracting me.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54I'm going to go Simon And The Worm.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Joyce in the TV series Simon And The... Eggheads?
0:05:57 > 0:05:59- Witch.- Witch is the answer.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02So, equal after three questions.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05And we go to Sudden Death. Geoff, here is your first question.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07It gets a bit harder, I don't give you alternatives.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11Which 2000 film ends with the title character taking to the stage
0:06:11 > 0:06:15to perform the lead in Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake?
0:06:16 > 0:06:20I'm thinking that is going to be Billy Elliot.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Billy Elliot is quite right.
0:06:23 > 0:06:24Dave, to stay in.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27What is the name of the purple Teletubby?
0:06:27 > 0:06:31- Oh, no!- (I know this.) - SHE LAUGHS
0:06:31 > 0:06:33You are having a laugh.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35- THEY LAUGH - Come on, Dave!
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Right, you've got Po who's red.
0:06:42 > 0:06:43Oh, no!
0:06:45 > 0:06:46Oh, this is horrible.
0:06:48 > 0:06:49I'll go Dipsy.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53- Tinky-Winky, Dave.- Right, fine!
0:06:53 > 0:06:55- Bye-bye.- Bye-bye.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Been knocked out by Tinky-Winky.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59There's no shame in that.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02Well done, Geoff. You've got superior Film & TV knowledge.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Come back to us, both of you, and we'll play on.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09So as it stands, the Drama Queens have not lost a brain
0:07:09 > 0:07:11- from the final round. How about that?- Great!
0:07:11 > 0:07:14The Eggheads have lost one. We play on with Music.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Music. Um...
0:07:16 > 0:07:18- Sonya, it's between you and me, really.- Sonya, I think.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21- What about you on Music? - No, I'd rather not.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23- I know Tara is a no-no on Music. - We need you in the final.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- What do you want?- I'll do Music.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28- Do want to do Music? - Well done, Sonya.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Sonya? Anyone but Dave.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- OK, I would like to take on Chris, please.- Good stuff.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35And Chris loves his music.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Sonya from the Drama Queens versus Chris, The Locomotive,
0:07:38 > 0:07:39from the Eggheads.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41And to ensure there is no conferring,
0:07:41 > 0:07:43please take your positions.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46So what sort of music do you like, Sonya?
0:07:46 > 0:07:50Sort of '70s, '80s, really. That's my sort of field.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53So, we're between Visage and Led Zeppelin.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55You've got to be more specific.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57- Slade.- Slade, OK.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Well, I reckon Chris would like Slade.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- Yeah, I really like Slade, actually, yeah.- Favourite song by them, Chris?
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Mama Weer All Crazee Now.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Yeah, which is the Eggheads' kind of theme tune, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11- Yeah.- Cum On Feel The Noize. - Cum On Feel The Noize.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Yeah, gosh, not many reply with Slade.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16That's fantastic. OK, Sonya, would you like to go first or second?
0:08:16 > 0:08:18I'll go first, please.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24OK, here is your first question, Sonya.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Which of these is an instrument with a double reed?
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Well, I actually used to play this instrument at school,
0:08:34 > 0:08:35and it's a bassoon.
0:08:36 > 0:08:37Yes. Brilliant.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40Chris, your question.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43"Humidity is rising Barometer's getting low
0:08:43 > 0:08:47"According to all sources The street's the place to go"
0:08:47 > 0:08:48are lyrics from which song?
0:08:53 > 0:08:55It's Raining Men by The Weather Girls.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58It's Raining Men is correct.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Sonya, which song from the musical Annie
0:09:01 > 0:09:06was sampled for a single on a 1998 album by the rapper Jay-Z?
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Uh...
0:09:13 > 0:09:14I don't think it's Maybe.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19I'm pretty sure It's The Hard Knock Life.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Yeah, brilliant. It's The Hard Knock Life.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Very sure-footed play by our Challenger here.
0:09:24 > 0:09:25Chris.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Kylie Minogue was born in which year?
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Whoa.
0:09:36 > 0:09:40Well, she was in Neighbours in the 1990s, so it wouldn't be '78.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Don't think it's...'73.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47She is the elder of the two Minogue sisters, so I'll say '68.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Yeah, she's coming up on 50. '68 is correct.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55OK, Sonya,
0:09:55 > 0:09:57which of these is a tenor role
0:09:57 > 0:10:00in Mozart's opera Cosi Fan Tutte?
0:10:05 > 0:10:07I'm not sure of this one at all.
0:10:07 > 0:10:13I'm going to have to take a guess, and I'll go for Fiordiligi.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14Let's see if Chris knows.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Not an opera I'm familiar with.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18I'd be more inclined to go for Ferrando.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22Ferrando is the answer. So, two out of three.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Leaves you open here to Chris.
0:10:24 > 0:10:29What is the surname, Chris, of the singer known as Jamelia
0:10:29 > 0:10:33who had UK hit singles with Superstar and Thank You?
0:10:38 > 0:10:42HE MUTTERS
0:10:42 > 0:10:43Jamelia Daniels.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47- No, Davis.- Davis? Oh, well.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50Jamelia Davis is the answer.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51So, two out of two for both of you.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54We go to Sudden Death, Sonya.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56- Are you ready?- Yes.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58I don't give you alternatives. It gets a bit harder.
0:10:58 > 0:11:03Which park was the title of a 1967 top ten single
0:11:03 > 0:11:05for The Small Faces?
0:11:06 > 0:11:09The only one I can think of is Itchycoo Park.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Itchycoo Park is correct.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Good play. Chris, pressure on you.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17How many sharps are there in a G-major scale?
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Oh, musical theory, yeah.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Absolute shot in the dark. Four.
0:11:24 > 0:11:25Lisa knows.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28E-major is four, but there's only one in a G-major scale.
0:11:28 > 0:11:29- That's right. And it is?- F-sharp.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31F-sharp. There is only one.
0:11:31 > 0:11:32You are out, Chris.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34And on Sudden Death, Sonya has triumphed
0:11:34 > 0:11:37and you will be in the final, Sonya. Well done.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Come back to us and we'll see what happens next.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Oh, you are playing rather well, Drama Queens.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48You've not lost any brains from the final round, as you know.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49The Eggheads have lost two,
0:11:49 > 0:11:52and they're just quaking a bit below the desk.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55It's glass on the side, and I can see knees knocking.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58The next subject is History.
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Who would like this?
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Would you like to do History? You're OK with History?
0:12:02 > 0:12:06- Yeah, I'll take History.- Who would you want to take on in History?
0:12:06 > 0:12:07Who do you suggest?
0:12:07 > 0:12:09L-L...
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Lisa.
0:12:11 > 0:12:12Lisa, please, Jeremy.
0:12:12 > 0:12:16All right, the team captain is taking the reins here. This is good.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19Gill from Drama Queens versus Lisa on History for the Eggheads.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22To ensure there is no conferring, please take your positions.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26Gill, as well as being a solicitor, you like to write pantomimes.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28I do indeed.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30I'm in the middle of writing my ninth panto at the moment.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33How wonderful! And do you have to then put all those brilliant jokes
0:12:33 > 0:12:35in? Those kind of cracker jokes?
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Brilliant? Well, I do try and put some in.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39I wouldn't know if they were all brilliant.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Puns are allowed, aren't they?
0:12:41 > 0:12:44- They are indeed.- And also I notice when I go with my kids
0:12:44 > 0:12:48that there's always jokes that are there for adults as well.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50Absolutely. You've got to find the right songs
0:12:50 > 0:12:52and you've got to find the right jokes.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54You've got to appeal to the entire audience.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57- All right, well, good luck doing that in this round.- Thank you.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59History against Lisa. Would you like to go first or second?
0:12:59 > 0:13:01I'd like to go first, please.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06And here's your question.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09What did the explorer George Mallory reportedly answer
0:13:09 > 0:13:12when he was asked why he wanted to scale Mount Everest?
0:13:12 > 0:13:13Did he say...?
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Well, as a drama queen, I ought to go for the fame,
0:13:20 > 0:13:22but I think he went because it's there.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Because it's there is correct.
0:13:26 > 0:13:27Lisa.
0:13:27 > 0:13:32In British history, who were the two queens who ruled in 1553?
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Isn't it helpful when they've got Mary in all of them(?)
0:13:40 > 0:13:44So, Edward VI died in 1553
0:13:44 > 0:13:50and Lady Jane Grey was...put on the throne as the Nine Days' Queen.
0:13:50 > 0:13:54Elizabeth dates...so 1558. And, obviously, Victoria was much later.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56So it's Jane and Mary.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58It is indeed Jane and Mary. Well done.
0:13:59 > 0:14:00Over to you, Gill.
0:14:00 > 0:14:06William Kidd, executed for piracy in 1701, was born in which country?
0:14:10 > 0:14:13I don't know the answer to this. Um...
0:14:15 > 0:14:16So, I'm going to guess Scotland.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20Scotland is quite right.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22OK, Lisa, your question.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25Sir Bertram Ramsay played a key role in which of these events?
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Ramsay, Ramsay, Ramsay, Ramsay.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37I think I know vaguely more...
0:14:37 > 0:14:39I wonder if I can do this on the basis I know vaguely more -
0:14:39 > 0:14:41and it is vaguely - about the Battle of the Somme
0:14:41 > 0:14:44and the birth of the NHS than I do about Dunkirk.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48I've hardly got a huge knowledge of any of them.
0:14:50 > 0:14:51Oh, I don't know.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54Let's go for the evacuation of Dunkirk.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56On the basis that if you had heard of him, it would
0:14:56 > 0:14:58have been one of the other two, is that right?
0:14:58 > 0:15:01It's only the vaguest knowledge that I have of any of them,
0:15:01 > 0:15:03so it's not desperately helpful.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05- No, but it's good. You've got it right.- Wow!
0:15:05 > 0:15:07Evacuation of Dunkirk.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09OK, Gill.
0:15:09 > 0:15:10Level pegging so far.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13What was the name of the English tobacco planter who married
0:15:13 > 0:15:18the Powhatan princess Pocahontas in April 1614?
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Well, I love the Disney film.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Used some of those songs in pantos.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31- I think it's John Brown.- Eggheads?
0:15:31 > 0:15:35- BOTH:- Rolfe.- John Rolfe... - Ooh.- ..is the answer, sorry.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37So, Lisa, you get this right,
0:15:37 > 0:15:38you're in the final.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41What name was given to the Chinese rebel group who played
0:15:41 > 0:15:45a part in overthrowing Emperor Wang Mang in AD 23?
0:15:50 > 0:15:52I have really no idea.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55How would you recognise...
0:15:57 > 0:15:58..a fellow member of your...
0:16:01 > 0:16:03..your group?
0:16:03 > 0:16:05I don't know. I'm definitely starting a band called
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Wang Mang And The Red Eyebrows
0:16:07 > 0:16:09after this anyway, cos it just sounds cool.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12I'll go for the Red Eyebrows.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Anyone know on the Challengers' side?
0:16:14 > 0:16:17- Not a clue.- We would go... - We would go for Blue Faces.
0:16:17 > 0:16:18We would go for Blue Faces, but...
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Blue Faces, yeah.
0:16:20 > 0:16:21Chris?
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I'd go for Blue Faces.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26Well, I think it's the Red Eyebrows.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28- Yeah, Red Eyebrows is the right answer, Lisa.- Hey!
0:16:28 > 0:16:31Three out of three. Sorry, Gill, you've been knocked out.
0:16:31 > 0:16:32Doesn't go to Sudden Death.
0:16:32 > 0:16:33You won't be in the final round.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35If you come back to us,
0:16:35 > 0:16:38we'll find out if the Eggheads are starting to turn the tide.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42- So, are we worried, Drama Queens? ALL:- No.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44- We are not.- Not at all. - We are not worried.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47OK. Oh, yes, we are.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Oh, no, we're not!
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Our Drama Queens have now lost a brain from the final round,
0:16:54 > 0:16:56but the pantomime continues with the Eggheads. They've lost two.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00Let us see. Arts & Books, before the final. Who wants this?
0:17:01 > 0:17:03I think... Who have we got left?
0:17:03 > 0:17:05- You or me?- You two.- Just you two.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07It's up to you, captain.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10I think you are slightly stronger in Arts & Books than I am.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13- But I'm quite happy.- I think you go for books, Annette.
0:17:13 > 0:17:14Yeah, I think you'd better go for it.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17- You think I should go up there? - I think you should go.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20- Or do you want to stay back?- I see you girding yourself here.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24OK, I've got to take this for the team.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26So, who would you like to take on?
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- You can have either Judith or Kevin.- I'll go for...
0:17:30 > 0:17:34Jud-du-du. Judith.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37I love your decision-making. It's brilliant. OK, Annette.
0:17:37 > 0:17:38This is the big one now.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41The team captain goes into the breach from the Drama Queens
0:17:41 > 0:17:42versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Please go to the Question Room.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48I'm sensing you're the powerhouse behind your team, Annette.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Ha-ha!
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- Who knows?- Good old-fashioned Arts & Books round
0:17:53 > 0:17:54now for you, Annette.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- Would you like to go first or second?- I'll go first.
0:18:00 > 0:18:01Here we go.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05Truman Capote's novella Breakfast At Tiffany's is set
0:18:05 > 0:18:06in which city?
0:18:09 > 0:18:15Breakfast At Tiffany's, Holly Golightly and her cat...
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Is it New York?
0:18:18 > 0:18:20New York is correct. Well done.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24Judith, whose 1825 painting
0:18:24 > 0:18:26entitled The Leaping Horse
0:18:26 > 0:18:29depicts a scene beside the River Stour? Is it...?
0:18:35 > 0:18:38Well, I think that is Constable.
0:18:38 > 0:18:39John Constable.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41John Constable is correct.
0:18:43 > 0:18:44Back to you, Annette.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48Which painting by Diego Velazquez was exhibited
0:18:48 > 0:18:50in Rokeby Park in County Durham
0:18:50 > 0:18:53before it was acquired by the National Gallery?
0:18:58 > 0:19:03I'm not 100% certain on this one,
0:19:03 > 0:19:07but I'll say the Toilet Of Venus.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10- Is she right, Judith?- Yes.
0:19:10 > 0:19:11Yeah, the Rokeby Of Venus.
0:19:11 > 0:19:12Right, well done.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15It was stabbed by a suffragette.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16The painting was, was it?
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Yes, at some point, when it was in the National Gallery.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21OK, your question, Judith.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25How many daffodils are seen at a glance in the Wordsworth poem
0:19:25 > 0:19:28that begins "I wandered lonely as a cloud"? Is it...?
0:19:36 > 0:19:3810,000.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40- 10,000 is correct.- Yes.
0:19:40 > 0:19:41You are playing well.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43Two good players in Arts & Books here, that's for sure.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47Annette, which sport did Harold Pinter say
0:19:47 > 0:19:51was "the greatest thing that God ever created on earth"?
0:19:56 > 0:20:00I've got to confess, I have absolutely no idea on this one.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Harold Pinter, um...
0:20:04 > 0:20:07I'm going to just have to take
0:20:07 > 0:20:11a guess on this, and I'll go for...
0:20:11 > 0:20:13cricket.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16- Is she right, Eggheads? - Think so.- Yeah.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18Yeah, it was cricket.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20You are so good, Annette. Playing well.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Three out of three. Judith.
0:20:22 > 0:20:23In Mark Haddon's book
0:20:23 > 0:20:26The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time,
0:20:26 > 0:20:29what is the name of the dog?
0:20:33 > 0:20:35Oh, lor.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38I haven't read it or seen the play or anything.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42I don't know, my instincts said Wellington.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45I don't know if that's right at all
0:20:45 > 0:20:47or whether I should pay attention to it.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49But I'm going to say Wellington.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51Wellington is the right answer, Judith. Well done.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54- Well, I must've read it somewhere, mustn't I?- Well, I guess so.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56All right, three questions each.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59I sort of thought this might happen. And we go to Sudden Death, Annette.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01I don't give you alternatives.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05Daryl Van Horne is the central, male character
0:21:05 > 0:21:07of which John Updike novel?
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Is it...
0:21:11 > 0:21:14..The...Witches Of Eastwick?
0:21:14 > 0:21:17Yes, it is The Witches Of Eastwick.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21Played by Jack Nicholson in the 1987 film.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23To stay in, Judith.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27Esther Greenwood is the narrator of which novel by Sylvia Plath?
0:21:29 > 0:21:30The Bell Jar.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33That's right. Her only novel. It's The Bell Jar.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36Annette, we go back. Sudden Death. Your question.
0:21:36 > 0:21:40Which 1941 play by Noel Coward takes its title from a line
0:21:40 > 0:21:44in Percy Bysshe Shelley's poem To A Skylark?
0:21:44 > 0:21:47That would be Blithe Spirit.
0:21:47 > 0:21:48Indeed, Blithe Spirit.
0:21:50 > 0:21:51Judith, to stay in.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54In books by the Paddington creator, Michael Bond,
0:21:54 > 0:21:57what type of creature is Olga Da Polga?
0:21:59 > 0:22:00What kind of creature is Olga Da Polga?
0:22:00 > 0:22:04- Yeah.- Gosh, I don't know. A cat.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06- You've said a cat.- I said a cat.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08You just kind of went for cat?
0:22:08 > 0:22:11- Yes.- You didn't know.- No.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13- And we are on Sudden Death.- Yeah.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15And it is so finely balanced.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17And you've gone out on a cat.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19- I've gone out on a cat? - I'm so sorry, Judith.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Well, I don't know what it was.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23- It was either a dog or cat. - Guinea pig, I'm sorry.
0:22:23 > 0:22:24Oh, guinea pig.
0:22:24 > 0:22:28No, it wasn't a dog or a cat, but listen, great round by both of you.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Bad luck, Judith. Well done, Annette.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Great quizzing by you. And, wow, that was fantastic for us.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Please come back to us and we'll play the final.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39This is what we have been playing towards.
0:22:39 > 0:22:40It is time for our final round,
0:22:40 > 0:22:42which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be
0:22:44 > 0:22:46allowed to take part in this round.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49So that's Gill from the Drama Queens,
0:22:49 > 0:22:52but also Chris, Judith and Dave from the Eggheads.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Would you please leave the studio?
0:22:56 > 0:22:59OK, Annette, Tara, Geoff and Sonya, you are playing to win
0:22:59 > 0:23:01the Drama Queens £13,000.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03You've quizzed brilliantly so far.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Eggheads, reduced to two.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09Kevin and Lisa, now playing for something that money can't buy -
0:23:09 > 0:23:12your precious reputation and to keep this roll going.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18This time, they are all General Knowledge. You can confer.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20So, Drama Queens, the question is -
0:23:20 > 0:23:24are your four brains able to defeat the Eggheads's two?
0:23:24 > 0:23:27- Wow!- You don't need to answer that, Annette. Don't worry.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30Would you like to go, Tara, first or second?
0:23:30 > 0:23:32We would like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38All right, Tara, team, good luck. Take your time.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42Non capisco means I don't understand in which language?
0:23:46 > 0:23:48I'm pretty certain it's Italian. You happy with Italian?
0:23:48 > 0:23:50Do you need the spelling of it?
0:23:50 > 0:23:52- No.- Non capisco? You want it spelled?- No.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54- I don't think so. Yeah.- Yeah.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57We think it's Italian.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Italian is the correct answer.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01Your first question, Eggheads.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04In 2015, the singer Carly Simon finally revealed
0:24:04 > 0:24:08that the second verse of her song You're So Vain was about
0:24:08 > 0:24:10which Hollywood star?
0:24:15 > 0:24:17It's Warren Beatty. Yeah.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20- Yeah, it's been said to be him for years, hasn't it?- Yeah.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24It's something that's sort of being an open secret, I suppose.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Yeah, we are fairly sure, Jeremy,
0:24:27 > 0:24:28that's Warren Beatty.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Warren Beatty is correct.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33OK, second question.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36At the 1988 Olympic Games,
0:24:36 > 0:24:39Florence Griffith Joyner won gold medals
0:24:39 > 0:24:44in the 4x100m relay and which two individual events?
0:24:53 > 0:24:57- You know this, don't you, Tara?- Yes.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Gosh, I remember watching it many years ago.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03And she was an absolutely fabulous sprinter,
0:25:03 > 0:25:07so I'm thinking it's the 100, 200m, chaps?
0:25:07 > 0:25:08That's what I would go for as well.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11She's definitely not going to do any hurdles.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13It's definitely not the 110 hurdles.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Did she do the long jump, though?
0:25:15 > 0:25:17- Oh, don't... - Don't talk yourself out of it.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20- I'm talking myself out of it. - No, don't talk yourself out of it.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23I've started to talk myself out of this one,
0:25:23 > 0:25:24but I'm going to go with
0:25:24 > 0:25:27the 100 and 200m.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29You're absolutely right.
0:25:29 > 0:25:30Well done, Tara.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34100 and 200m. That was... Yeah, isn't that interesting?
0:25:34 > 0:25:35Go with the first one and then don't
0:25:35 > 0:25:36talk yourself out of it.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39Very, very good policy.
0:25:39 > 0:25:40OK.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42Eggheads, your second question.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Which of these elements has the lowest atomic number?
0:25:48 > 0:25:51- Sodium is 11, sulphur is... - Sodium is 11.- Four, no.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53- Silicon is 14.- Thank you.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55- Sulphur is...- 16.- 16.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57- Sodium. - So, the lowest atomic number?
0:25:57 > 0:25:59The lowest atomic number.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01- OK, so sodium.- Sodium, the furthest side to the left.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03That would be sodium.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Yeah, sodium is right. Very impressive.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07OK, your third question.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09This is the key one, really. Get this one right
0:26:09 > 0:26:13and then you may not need to do any more work for your £13,000.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17Which female baseball pitcher is believed to have had her
0:26:17 > 0:26:22contract voided after striking out both Babe Ruth
0:26:22 > 0:26:25and Lou Gehrig in an exhibition game
0:26:25 > 0:26:29between the Chattanooga Lookouts and the New York Yankees?
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Has anyone heard of any of these people?
0:26:36 > 0:26:37I've not heard of any of them.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40The only one I thought I recognised was Mamie Johnson.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42That's the only one I thought I recognised.
0:26:42 > 0:26:43I recognised that one.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46- Should we go for that?- Yeah, OK. - THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER
0:26:46 > 0:26:48I mean... Tara.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52Yeah, we really don't know at all,
0:26:52 > 0:26:53but we are going to go with
0:26:53 > 0:26:55Mamie Johnson on this one.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57If you've got this right,
0:26:57 > 0:26:59it's three in a row. Are they right?
0:26:59 > 0:27:01Not sure. I'm aware of the incident, but I can't...
0:27:01 > 0:27:03I would have gone for that, but I'm not sure
0:27:03 > 0:27:05whether that's right or not.
0:27:05 > 0:27:06A hard question.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08Jackie Mitchell is the answer.
