0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz Challengers
0:00:26 > 0:00:28pit their wits against possibly
0:00:28 > 0:00:30the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Taking on our awesome quiz champions today are...
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Now, this family team
0:00:37 > 0:00:41quiz together every Tuesday at the Baydale Beck pub in Darlington.
0:00:41 > 0:00:42Let's meet them.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46Hello. My name's Len and I'm a retired sales manager.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Hi, my name's Mark and I'm a retired sales manager.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52Hi. My name is Claire. I'm a primary school teacher.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Hello. My name's Laura. I'm an arts assistant.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Hello. My name is Linda.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59I'm a retired librarian.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02So, Len and team, welcome. Good to see you.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03- ALL:- Hello.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Tell us about the pub, Len. It sounds like a lively place.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07It's a beautiful place.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10It sells very excellent beer.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14And food. And there's a place for the children to play.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17It's old but it's quite tidy.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21And I gather you accumulate quite a lot of money quizzing at this
0:01:21 > 0:01:22pub, is that right?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Yes, we have done in the past.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28We usually have a big party at Christmas with it.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31We go out, all go out together and have a party.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33This year has been a slow year.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35But we're hoping things will improve today.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37They love to have a quizzing team in.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39So they'll be made up, the Eggheads, with this.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash
0:01:41 > 0:01:43up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:45 > 0:01:47the prize money rolls over to our next show.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50So, Quislings, I can tell you they've won the last two games.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Which means £3,000 says you can't beat them.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56- Would you like to try? - Certainly.- Yes.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59All right, the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02Who would like this?
0:02:02 > 0:02:05- Laura.- I think it's Laura. - We're looking at you.- Is that me?
0:02:05 > 0:02:06I think it's got to be you.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Right. OK.
0:02:08 > 0:02:09- Go for it.- Laura.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Which Egghead would you like to take on?
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- Chris?- Chris.- Should we try Chris?
0:02:14 > 0:02:15First up, Chris.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Yeah, fair enough. Yeah.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20OK, Laura from the Quislings versus Chris from the Eggheads.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22To ensure there's no conferring,
0:02:22 > 0:02:26would you please take your positions in our famous Question Room?
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Music, Laura. Would you like to go first or second?
0:02:29 > 0:02:31I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37OK. We crack on. Good luck, Laura.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41Who was the lead singer of the 1980s band Culture Club?
0:02:47 > 0:02:51I'm pretty sure it wasn't George Michael or George Harrison.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54My answer for that one is Boy George.
0:02:54 > 0:02:55Boy George is right.
0:02:58 > 0:02:59OK, Chris.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02The leading player in each section of an orchestra is normally
0:03:02 > 0:03:04referred to by what name?
0:03:08 > 0:03:10You get a principal violin, don't you?
0:03:10 > 0:03:11So it's principal.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13It's principal. Well done.
0:03:13 > 0:03:14Laura.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16The brothers Isaac, Taylor and Zac
0:03:16 > 0:03:22formed which popular US pop rock band in the 1990s?
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Um...
0:03:29 > 0:03:32I don't think it was New Kids On The Block. And...
0:03:32 > 0:03:35I'm hoping it was Hanson.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38Yes, it was Hanson.
0:03:38 > 0:03:39Well done.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41OK, Chris, your question.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Which of these artists had eight singles in the UK top 40
0:03:45 > 0:03:49in November 2015, breaking Elvis Presley's record?
0:03:54 > 0:03:55Ooh.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Artist, singular.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02So it's not One Direction cos there's more than one of them.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06Justin Bieber has a lot of vociferous fans.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09But I don't think he'd had eight in the chart simultaneously.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11So I'll say Ed Sheeran.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13THEY GROAN
0:04:13 > 0:04:14We've got everyone going, "Ooh."
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Make that noise again, Eggs.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18THEY GROAN
0:04:18 > 0:04:20It's like cows.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23They make a kind of mooing noise.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Justin Bieber, Chris.
0:04:26 > 0:04:27Laura, your question.
0:04:27 > 0:04:32For the round. Which US rapper-turned-actor
0:04:32 > 0:04:37was born Tracy Lauren Marrow in 1958?
0:04:42 > 0:04:44This is a difficult one for me.
0:04:44 > 0:04:45Um...
0:04:45 > 0:04:47I'm not hot on the rappers.
0:04:49 > 0:04:54But because I know him more than anybody else, I'll go for LL Cool J.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Let's see if your team know. Any ideas?
0:04:56 > 0:04:58I think it's Ice-T.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01I think the oldest one there is IceT. Yeah.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Ice-T is the answer.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05- So, you have a chance, Chris.- Mm.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Get this right, make it equal.
0:05:08 > 0:05:12Which rock singer has been nicknamed The Demon of Screamin'
0:05:12 > 0:05:14for his wide vocal range?
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Would that be Axl Rose of Guns N' Roses?
0:05:23 > 0:05:26Nice idea but no. Steven Tyler is the answer.
0:05:26 > 0:05:27Well done, Laura.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29You're in the final round.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32Chris's single point wasn't enough to get him into the final.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Come back to us, both of you, and we'll play on.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39The Quislings have not lost any brains from the final round.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40The Eggheads have lost one.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Early days. The next subject is Politics.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Who would like this?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- I think that would be me. - Dad, I think you would like that.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51- Len, don't go just yet.- No. - Who would you like to play, Len?
0:05:51 > 0:05:53- Lisa.- You'd like to play Lisa?
0:05:53 > 0:05:55- Yeah, I like Lisa. - Because you like her.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- THEY LAUGH - Just pick then.- Go for it.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00- Two singers, I think.- Excellent.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- Cos you're a singer too.- I am, yes.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06Yeah. So Len from Quislings versus the other singer from the Eggheads.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Len, you once sang a duet with Engelbert Humperdinck.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17- I did, yes.- Tell us about that.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21I was resident singer/compere in a nightclub in Darlington.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Engelbert, or Gerry Dorsey as he was then,
0:06:24 > 0:06:26used to come and do the cabaret.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29He heard me sing and he said, "Len, I'd love you to sing with me."
0:06:29 > 0:06:32So we got up on stage and we did a jazz hour.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36And every time he came after that, we used to sing duets together.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Anything in particular you remember singing with him?
0:06:38 > 0:06:42You Came A Long Way From St Louis was one of his favourites.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45That's great. On Politics, do you want to go first or second?
0:06:45 > 0:06:46First, please.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52OK, here we go with your first question.
0:06:52 > 0:06:56What term was coined for David Cameron's plan to give
0:06:56 > 0:06:59English MPs a veto on laws affecting England?
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Um, I'm not really sure on this one.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09On laws affecting England.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Um...
0:07:12 > 0:07:14I'll discount VEVO, I think.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20I'll go for the centre. OVOE.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Let's see. It's tricky, this one.
0:07:22 > 0:07:23Team, do you know?
0:07:23 > 0:07:25- Not really sure.- No.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27- Could it be VEVO? - I'd have thought VEVO.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29No, it's English votes for English laws. EVEL.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- Ah.- Mm.
0:07:31 > 0:07:32Ah!
0:07:32 > 0:07:35OK, EVEL is the right answer. Lisa, onto you.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40For what does the S stand in the name of the parliamentary body IPSA?
0:07:45 > 0:07:49Let's see. I bet the IP is something like Independent Parliamentary.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53Um...
0:07:54 > 0:07:56I'll go for Standards.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Yeah, Standards is right.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Independent Parliamentary Standards... Association?
0:08:01 > 0:08:03It doesn't sound right, does it?
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- It's nearly as good an acronym as EVEL.- Authority, I think.
0:08:06 > 0:08:07Authority.
0:08:07 > 0:08:08OK, Len.
0:08:08 > 0:08:13What name was given to the bus journeys in the US Deep South
0:08:13 > 0:08:17in the 1960s undertaken by activists
0:08:17 > 0:08:20protesting against racial segregation?
0:08:27 > 0:08:28Freedom Rides.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Yes, Freedom Rides is the correct answer.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32Well done.
0:08:32 > 0:08:33Lisa.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36What was the former profession of Joseph Estrada,
0:08:36 > 0:08:40elected president of the Philippines in 1998?
0:08:43 > 0:08:44Um, right.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48There are plenty of Estradas out there who are actors.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50But I don't know if it translates...
0:08:52 > 0:08:53..in this case.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Plenty of Filipino boxers.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Um...
0:08:58 > 0:09:00I don't know. Best guess. Actor.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02He wasn't the guy in CHiPS, was he?
0:09:02 > 0:09:03Erik Estrada.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05THEY LAUGH
0:09:05 > 0:09:08- Actor's right though. - Hey.- Well done.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11So she's in the lead, Len.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13And it means you need to get this one right.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16"A revolution is not a dinner party"
0:09:16 > 0:09:21is a quote attributed to which 20th century political leader?
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Mm.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Another tricky one.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33I would go for...
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Fidel Castro.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Let's see if the Eggheads know. Is he right?
0:09:37 > 0:09:40I don't know. I'd be tempted by Mao Zedong but I don't know.
0:09:40 > 0:09:41Yeah, it was Chairman Mao.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43- Mao Zedong.- Oh, dear.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46The first answer, Len. Sorry, you've been knocked out by Lisa.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Please, both of you, return to your teams
0:09:48 > 0:09:49and we'll see what happens next.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52So, level pegging.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55The Quislings have lost one brain from the final round.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57The Eggheads have also lost a brain.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59And the next subject is Arts & Books.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02So which of you would like this?
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- That was going to be me, wasn't it?- I'll take that one.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07- I'll take that one.- OK, Claire.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Against which Egghead, Claire?
0:10:09 > 0:10:13Who would you like? Any of the three in the middle, basically.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15I would like to take on Pat.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19OK. So, Claire, our primary school teacher, from the Quislings,
0:10:19 > 0:10:22versus Pat, known as the Silent Destroyer...
0:10:22 > 0:10:25THEY LAUGH ..from the Eggheads.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31- Claire, you're a primary school teacher?- I am, yes.
0:10:31 > 0:10:32Tell us about that.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35I teach ten-year-olds and love it.
0:10:35 > 0:10:39And you once starred in a cowboy-themed music video.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43I did. Yee-ha. I did. Written by my dad. I was the love interest.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46- OK.- It didn't end well for me, unfortunately.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48All right. Hopefully this will.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50- Yeah, I hope so.- Arts & Books.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Do you want to go first or second against Pat?
0:10:52 > 0:10:54I'd like to go first, please.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59Here is your question.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03What is the title of the second volume of JRR Tolkien's
0:11:03 > 0:11:05fantasy novel The Lord Of The Rings?
0:11:10 > 0:11:13I remember watching the films and being, "They're very long."
0:11:13 > 0:11:16I think I might have fallen asleep in them.
0:11:16 > 0:11:17I'm going to go for...
0:11:19 > 0:11:20..The Two Towers.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22I'm glad you did. You're right, Claire.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Well done. The Two Towers.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26OK, Pat, your question.
0:11:26 > 0:11:31Which of these lies 528 steps up from ground level
0:11:31 > 0:11:33at St Paul's Cathedral in London?
0:11:40 > 0:11:41Um...
0:11:42 > 0:11:45There's quite a lot of steps there.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Would it be up at roof level and dome level?
0:11:48 > 0:11:51If you're at roof level, you could easily be at...
0:11:53 > 0:11:54Could be Golden Gallery.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58Could be a circular walkway around the inner side of the dome.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01If you're that high up, I think
0:12:01 > 0:12:03you're probably higher than a porch would be.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07I don't think Silver Verandah is very tempting.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09I'm going to have to go for Golden Gallery.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11But I'm in the dark here, really.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13No, you've done well. Golden Gallery.
0:12:13 > 0:12:14Claire.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18"This was the noblest Roman of them all"
0:12:18 > 0:12:22is a quote about which character from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar?
0:12:26 > 0:12:29I'm going to go for Cassius.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32I don't think it's Brutus, cos I don't think he was very noble.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34He wasn't known for his nobility.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37So I'm going to go for Cassius.
0:12:37 > 0:12:38Let's check with your dad. Len?
0:12:38 > 0:12:41I think it's Brutus.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43- It is Brutus, actually.- Ugh.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45OK, Pat.
0:12:45 > 0:12:50Drypoint is an old-fashioned method used in which artistic discipline?
0:12:54 > 0:12:57- Drypoint.- Drypoint. One word.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00I think you could probably convince yourself
0:13:00 > 0:13:02of each of these answers in turn.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04But I think I have a memory...
0:13:04 > 0:13:08of it being back in the Renaissance and Middle Ages.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12I think it was an extremely skilled way of painting,
0:13:12 > 0:13:16where you had a little silver nib.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19And you sort of scratched on a canvas.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23And people like Durer were masters at it.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25But it was exceptionally difficult.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28I'm not certain of this but I think it's painting.
0:13:28 > 0:13:29OK, interesting.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33- Cos it's funny... - Oh. I've had a second thought.
0:13:33 > 0:13:34That's silverpoint, I think.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36I think I've gone astray.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38No, you have gone astray. The answer is engraving.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41And I wonder whether actually your answer was correct
0:13:41 > 0:13:43but the outcome was wrong.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Because what you described was engraving there, really.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49There's a thing called silverpoint that Durer did.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51And he had a little silver nib.
0:13:51 > 0:13:55It was painting. But drypoint, it would appear, is engraving.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Yeah. Engraving is the answer.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59So...
0:13:59 > 0:14:02we go over to you, Claire.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04See if you can take the lead.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08By what name was the well-known 18th century actress
0:14:08 > 0:14:11Margaret Woffington popularly known?
0:14:15 > 0:14:22Margaret Woffington... I...I think... I don't think it's Peg.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25She sounds like she'd be quite refined
0:14:25 > 0:14:27and glamorous for an 18th-century actress.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29So I don't think she'd be called Peg.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Or Bab. I don't think that she'd be called Bab.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33So I'm going to go for Moll.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36It sounds more fitting of that time and era.
0:14:36 > 0:14:37OK, Moll Woffington.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39Let's just check with the Eggs. Is she right?
0:14:39 > 0:14:43Peg is the diminutive form of Margaret. So I'd have gone for Peg.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45All right. Sorry, Peg is the answer.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Pat has a chance to take the round.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52Which broadcaster made his fiction debut in 2015 with
0:14:52 > 0:14:55a collection of short stories entitled Those Were The Days?
0:15:00 > 0:15:03Mm. My first thought was Terry Wogan.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05But I may mull it over for a moment.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09I think I remember something about Terry Wogan
0:15:09 > 0:15:10venturing into the book world.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12So I'll go for Terry Wogan.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Terry Wogan. If you've got this right, you are through to the final.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Pat, it is Terry Wogan. Sorry, Claire.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20Knocked out by Pat, who'll be in the final round.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Please return to you teams.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26OK. So it's looking more difficult for the Quislings now.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28They've lost two from the final round.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30The Eggheads have just lost the one.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33And the last subject before the final is Geography.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35Who would like this?
0:15:35 > 0:15:39- Mark, that's going to be you. - I'll take that, yes.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41OK, Mark against which Egghead?
0:15:41 > 0:15:43- CJ or Barry?- CJ.- CJ.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45- They're both brilliant.- I'd say CJ.
0:15:45 > 0:15:46CJ.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49Mark from the Quislings versus CJ from the Eggheads.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Please go to our Question Room.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56OK. So it is Geography. Would you like to go first or second?
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Can I go first, please, Jeremy?
0:16:01 > 0:16:04Here we go with your first Geography question, Mark. Good luck.
0:16:04 > 0:16:09The Highland Boundary Fault traverses which constituent
0:16:09 > 0:16:11part of the United Kingdom?
0:16:14 > 0:16:17I don't think it would be England.
0:16:17 > 0:16:18I'm going to go Scotland.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Scotland is right.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23CJ.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27Into which inlet of the North Sea does the Great Ouse flow?
0:16:31 > 0:16:34The Solent's not in the North Sea.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37The Wash.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Yeah, not bad for an English geography question.
0:16:39 > 0:16:40You're right there.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42OK.
0:16:42 > 0:16:43Your question, Mark.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45Also known as the Istranca,
0:16:45 > 0:16:51the Yildiz mountain range is located in which of these countries?
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Hmm. Not too sure about this one.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58Um...
0:16:59 > 0:17:03Not too sure if it's Turkey or Georgia.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05I'm going to go down the right. I'm going to go Romania.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07Let's see if CJ knows.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09- I think it's Turkey. - Turkey is the answer, Mark.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11OK.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13CJ has a chance to take the lead.
0:17:13 > 0:17:18By what name was the disputed region of Western Sahara formerly known?
0:17:26 > 0:17:30I haven't actually come across this name but it was...
0:17:32 > 0:17:36..part of Morocco, which is French.
0:17:36 > 0:17:37Um...
0:17:39 > 0:17:42I haven't actually come across this particular name for it.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45But seeing as it was a disputed part of Morocco,
0:17:45 > 0:17:50which is now in the southern part of Morocco on the Atlantic coastline,
0:17:50 > 0:17:53I'll have to assume it's French Sahara.
0:17:53 > 0:17:54OK. Eggheads?
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- Spanish Sahara. - It's Spanish Sahara, CJ.
0:17:57 > 0:17:58Mm-mm.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Interesting.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02That's a little bit of a let-off there, Mark.
0:18:02 > 0:18:03Here is your next question.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07Which country's national flag features a nutmeg symbol
0:18:07 > 0:18:09on its hoist side?
0:18:13 > 0:18:15Again, not sure on this one.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Nutmeg. Where would you get nutmeg from?
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Don't think it's Granada.
0:18:24 > 0:18:25I'm going to go Madagascar.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27- It is actually Granada.- Urgh.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29- I said Grenada.- Grenada, sorry.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32I don't know. Maybe it's Granada.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34- That's the answer.- OK. - Granada, Grenada.
0:18:37 > 0:18:43Sint-Pieters railway station is the main terminal in which Belgian city?
0:18:48 > 0:18:49HE CHUCKLES
0:18:49 > 0:18:51I've absolutely no idea.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54I've been to both Ghent and Bruges, but not by train.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00I don't know this but principal, you said.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02You did say principal railway station?
0:19:02 > 0:19:04- The main terminal.- Main.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08Sounds to me like it would have more than one, perhaps.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10And I believe the largest of those places is Ghent.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13So that's the one I'll try. I'll try Ghent.
0:19:13 > 0:19:14Ghent is correct.
0:19:16 > 0:19:17CJ, well done.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19- Sorry, Mark.- OK.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23- Knocked out.- Yep.- Tight round, but you were beaten by our Egghead.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Come back to us and we will play the final round.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28So this is what we have been playing towards.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31It is time for the final round, which, as always,
0:19:31 > 0:19:32is General Knowledge.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:19:34 > 0:19:37won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40That is Len, Mark and Claire from the Quislings,
0:19:40 > 0:19:42but also Chris from the Eggheads.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Would you please now leave the studio?
0:19:46 > 0:19:49So, Laura and Linda, you are playing to win the Quislings £3,000.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53Lisa, Pat, CJ and Barry, you are playing for something
0:19:53 > 0:19:57that money can't buy - the Eggheads' precious reputation.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02This time, the questions are all General Knowledge.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04You are allowed to confer.
0:20:04 > 0:20:05So, Quislings, the question is -
0:20:05 > 0:20:09can your two brains defeat these four...
0:20:09 > 0:20:11in a spectacular way? I do hope so.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13Would you like to go first or second?
0:20:13 > 0:20:15We'd like to go first, I think, wouldn't we?
0:20:15 > 0:20:16- Yeah.- First, please.
0:20:20 > 0:20:21Here we go with your first question.
0:20:21 > 0:20:26What slang term is often used to describe an unscrupulous
0:20:26 > 0:20:27operator in business?
0:20:32 > 0:20:34- Cowboy.- I think it's cowboy.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37We'll go for cowboy, Jeremy.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Cowboy is the right answer.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42OK, Eggheads.
0:20:42 > 0:20:46According to the saying, what does a bad penny always do?
0:20:50 > 0:20:52- Turns up.- An easy one.- Mm-hm.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55A bad penny always turns up.
0:20:55 > 0:20:56It always turns up.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59OK. Back to our Challengers.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03The festival of Diwali is celebrated in Hinduism, Jainism
0:21:03 > 0:21:05and which other religion?
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Oh, dear. I knew it was Hinduism.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12I'm not sure which other one though.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15You wouldn't think it would be Buddhism, would you?
0:21:15 > 0:21:16- That's...- I think it's Sikhism. - Yeah.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19- Do you? - That's what I would have said.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21- Yeah?- Yeah. - Do you want to go for that?- Yeah.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24We'll go for Sikhism, please, Jeremy.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Good play. Sikhism is quite right.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Well done.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30OK, here's your question.
0:21:30 > 0:21:31Eggheads.
0:21:31 > 0:21:37Morten Olsen's 15-year tenure as manager of which national
0:21:37 > 0:21:39football team ended in 2015?
0:21:43 > 0:21:46Morten Olsen's a Norwegian name, surely?
0:21:46 > 0:21:48I would've been inclined to go for Norway on the name.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50But I don't actually know.
0:21:50 > 0:21:51Could be a Danish name as well.
0:21:51 > 0:21:52His name's the only thing
0:21:52 > 0:21:54we've got to go on, I think.
0:21:54 > 0:21:55Morten sounds Norwegian
0:21:55 > 0:21:57but Olsen sounds a little more Danish, doesn't it?
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Morten Olsen, I don't know.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03I'd have a marginal preference for Denmark but I don't know.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Denmark have been more
0:22:05 > 0:22:06successful, haven't they?
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Slightly, yeah.
0:22:08 > 0:22:09So I'm just wondering...
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Does a more successful club have a longer stay with the manager?
0:22:12 > 0:22:13That's what I'm thinking.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Do they reward a longer tenure?
0:22:17 > 0:22:20If he's more successful, do they reward him with a longer tenure?
0:22:20 > 0:22:23- We don't know. - We don't know. Denmark?
0:22:23 > 0:22:25- I'll go for Denmark.- Fine, OK.
0:22:25 > 0:22:26It's very speculative.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28I'd still have gone for Norway
0:22:28 > 0:22:29but I'll listen to you guys.
0:22:29 > 0:22:30As you've gathered, Jeremy,
0:22:30 > 0:22:32we haven't the slightest
0:22:32 > 0:22:33clue about what the answer is.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Scandinavian football is not a
0:22:35 > 0:22:37topic that I regularly follow.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39But we've all decided to make
0:22:39 > 0:22:41our play and go for Denmark.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43- OK, Denmark.- Come what may.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46This gentleman played for the national team.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48More than 100 appearances.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51He was also born in the country that is the answer.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53So he's very much from that country.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55And the answer is Denmark.
0:22:55 > 0:22:56Oh.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58OK, obviously his fame does not
0:22:58 > 0:22:59extend beyond Denmark.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00LAUGHTER
0:23:00 > 0:23:02So, two each.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Get the third one right, put some pressure on these Eggs.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07See if they crack.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Which of these creatures has the scientific name
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Micronycteris megalotis?
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Micronycteris megalotis.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24There's no clue because they're all small.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26- Yeah.- In some way or another.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29- Yeah.- Lesser, dwarf and little.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33So it's the Micronycteris megalotis.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38- That sounds like a little big-eared bat.- Yes.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41- That's what I was thinking. - Megalotis.
0:23:41 > 0:23:46- Is that going to be our answer? - Is it?- Yes.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51- We could change our mind three or four times and still be wrong.- No.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55Going on the language, as far as we can tell,
0:23:55 > 0:24:00we think it's the little big-eared bat.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Yeah, it's very good quizzing cos micro and mega
0:24:02 > 0:24:03give you little and big.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06So little big-eared bat is quite right.
0:24:06 > 0:24:07Three out of three.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Woo!
0:24:09 > 0:24:10Let's see, Eggheads.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12Are you going under again?
0:24:13 > 0:24:18Which US astronaut undertook an historic space walk
0:24:18 > 0:24:21on June 3rd, 1965?
0:24:25 > 0:24:27- PAT, CJ AND BARRY:- Edward White.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Edward White's known for his space walks, yeah.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31McDivitt has the lower profile.
0:24:31 > 0:24:32John Young has done everything.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34But I don't think he did the first.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36I'm sure Edward White is the first.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38- Are we happy with Ed White?- Yeah.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41We believe Ed White was the first American to walk in space.
0:24:41 > 0:24:42So, Ed White.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Impressive. Very true.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47You're right. Well done. Edward White.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49All right, three each in the final round. We go to Sudden Death.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51I don't give you alternatives.
0:24:51 > 0:24:56Which classic Hollywood film was based on the unproduced stage play
0:24:56 > 0:24:58Everybody Comes To Rick's?
0:24:58 > 0:25:01- That must be Casablanca, isn't it?- Hmm.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05- What do you think, Laura? - Yes. We'll go for that.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08Do we need to think more? Or shall we just...?
0:25:08 > 0:25:10- I can't think of any other Rick's. - No.
0:25:12 > 0:25:13Casablanca.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Casablanca is correct.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18- Yeah.- Yay.- Well done.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21It was dismissed by the script-reader for Warner Bros,
0:25:21 > 0:25:24who said it was hokum. BARRY CHUCKLES
0:25:24 > 0:25:25It became a brilliant film.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28All right, Eggheads, if you get this wrong, it's over.
0:25:28 > 0:25:35The taka - T-A-K-A - is the monetary unit of which South Asian state?
0:25:35 > 0:25:37- Bangladesh?- I would have said Bangladesh.
0:25:37 > 0:25:38Everybody happy with that?
0:25:38 > 0:25:39- Yeah.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41The taka is used in Bangladesh.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Bangladesh it is. Sudden Death.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46Here is your question, Challengers.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50In which year was the Kyoto Protocol on climate change
0:25:50 > 0:25:51initially ratified?
0:25:51 > 0:25:54- Hopeless on years.- Yeah.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56Absolutely hopeless on years.
0:25:56 > 0:25:57Let me think.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Did David Cameron go there? That would give us a start.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Was it him? Kyoto?
0:26:06 > 0:26:10- I don't know.- Was that the one before or after the one in...
0:26:13 > 0:26:14..South America?
0:26:14 > 0:26:16- It would give us a narrower... - I know. It would.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18- It would give us a narrower...- Yes.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21I'm thinking it wasn't too long ago, was it?
0:26:22 > 0:26:24No.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26Four years, five years.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28They've just had another one, haven't they?
0:26:28 > 0:26:30They've had another one.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32So is there a period between, usually?
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Four years is sometimes...
0:26:36 > 0:26:38It would fit, wouldn't it?
0:26:38 > 0:26:43- Shall we go with that theory and say...- 2011?- 2011.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48- We have to give something.- Yes.
0:26:48 > 0:26:54We've nothing to work on. We don't know. So we're going to say 2011.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56You're quite a way out, actually.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57Eggheads?
0:26:57 > 0:26:59- My initial thought was '97. But I don't know.- CJ is right.
0:26:59 > 0:27:03- '97. '97.- Well done. We didn't know at all.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Didn't come into effect till 2005.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08So, Eggheads have a chance to finish the contest.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Of which national daily newspaper
0:27:11 > 0:27:15was Lloyd Embley appointed editor in 2012?
0:27:15 > 0:27:18It's not the Mail cos that's still Paul Dacre.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22- It's not the Guardian, is it?- No.
