0:01:40 > 0:01:43- I act as well.- Fantastic. Well, you've got all angles covered.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Just about, yeah, you could say that.

0:02:13 > 0:02:14Who would like this?
0:02:14 > 0:02:15OK, I think Liz.
0:02:15 > 0:02:16Who's going?
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- Liz, do you want to take that one? - OK.
0:02:19 > 0:02:20Happy with that? Yeah.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23OK, Liz, before you go, Liz, who would you like to take on?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27- I think Lisa.- I think we said Lisa. - Lisa.- Lisa, why not? Good choice.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31- Lisa, Jeremy, please.- There's a kind of inevitability about this, Lisa.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32Yeah, pretty much.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Liz from What's My Line? versus Lisa from the Eggheads.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37To ensure there's no conferring,
0:02:37 > 0:02:40please take your positions in our legendary Question Room.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44So, Geography, Liz, would you like to go first or second?
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Jeremy, I think I'd like to go first, please.
0:02:51 > 0:02:52Here we go, good luck.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56Himachal Pradesh is a mountainous state
0:02:56 > 0:02:57in the north of which country?
0:03:02 > 0:03:05I've heard of this.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07I don't think that it's Mexico.
0:03:09 > 0:03:10Nor do I think it's Italy.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14I think my answer is going to be India.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17India is the correct answer.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20Lisa,
0:03:20 > 0:03:25the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin was based on the design of
0:03:25 > 0:03:27the entrance to which famous structure?
0:03:33 > 0:03:35When you say based on, I assume the original didn't have a
0:03:35 > 0:03:38great big horse on the top and everything else.
0:03:40 > 0:03:41The Acropolis.
0:03:41 > 0:03:42Yes, it is Acropolis.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45OK, Liz.
0:03:45 > 0:03:50Vientiane, the capital of Laos, is situated close to the border
0:03:50 > 0:03:52with which other country?
0:03:56 > 0:03:58I'm struggling a little bit with this.
0:03:59 > 0:04:03And I'm thinking between Vietnam and Thailand.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08I'm going to say Vietnam, Jeremy.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11I'm really sorry, you've gone the wrong way.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Thailand is the answer.
0:04:14 > 0:04:15Lisa,
0:04:15 > 0:04:19Parana is the name of one of the 26 states
0:04:19 > 0:04:21of which South American country?
0:04:24 > 0:04:28- Can you spell Parana for me, please?- Yeah, P-A-R-A-N-A.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31I can't even work out which one to guess. This is really bad, isn't it?
0:04:34 > 0:04:36I don't know, Argentina.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38- No, it's Brazil.- Ah, well!
0:04:40 > 0:04:41So, you're level.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Liz, third question.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46What name is shared by a district of Liverpool
0:04:46 > 0:04:50and a peninsula in County Kerry in Ireland?
0:04:54 > 0:04:58I'm going to say straight away that it's Dingle.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Dingle is correct.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03OK, your third question, Lisa.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Which of the following do xeric shrublands lack?
0:05:13 > 0:05:17Yeah, so the ic bit is to do with the lack, like anaemic,
0:05:17 > 0:05:22I guess, and I think an X-E-R is usually something to do with water.
0:05:22 > 0:05:23So, I'll try moisture.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26Excellent work, it is moisture.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28So, you're level after three questions.
0:05:28 > 0:05:29We go to Sudden Death, Liz.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31- Oh, dear.- Don't worry!
0:05:31 > 0:05:33It gets a little bit harder, though,
0:05:33 > 0:05:35because I don't give you alternatives.
0:05:35 > 0:05:40What is the name of the city in Saskatchewan, Canada,
0:05:40 > 0:05:44whose residents are known as Saskatonians?
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Saskatchewan.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50- No, it is not, it's Saskatoon.- Oh!
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Lisa.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54Hainan Island,
0:05:54 > 0:05:57the main island of China's Hainan Province,
0:05:57 > 0:05:59is located in which sea?
0:06:01 > 0:06:04Yeah, I love bodies of water. They cause me so many problems.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08I don't know, South China Sea.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Yeah, Hainan literally means south of the sea.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12South China Sea is correct.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Lisa, on Sudden Death, you've taken it. Sorry, Liz.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17- OK.- Knocked out by our Egghead.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Return to us, both of you, and we'll play on.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23OK, as it stands, What's My Line? have lost a brain
0:06:23 > 0:06:26from the final round, the Eggheads have still not lost any.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29All five of them sitting there and they're on this streak as well.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32See if you can stop it. Challengers, the next subject is Music.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- That'll be me. - That will definitely be you.
0:06:35 > 0:06:36OK, Tom?
0:06:36 > 0:06:40- Yes, that was my strongest subject. - Who are you going to take?- Against?
0:06:40 > 0:06:42I'll go with Judith, please, Jeremy.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Right, so Tom from What's My Line?
0:06:44 > 0:06:47versus Judith from the Eggheads on Music.
0:06:47 > 0:06:48Please go to the Question Room.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52So, Music against Judith.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Tom, would you like to go first or second?
0:06:54 > 0:06:56I'd like the first set of questions, please, Jeremy.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Here's your question.
0:07:01 > 0:07:07In which decade did The Kinks have their first UK number one single?
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Well, I know they were big in the '60s.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21So, I'll go straight down the middle, the '60s.
0:07:21 > 0:07:22'60s is correct.
0:07:24 > 0:07:25Judith.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29How many copies of Adele's album 25 were sold in the UK
0:07:29 > 0:07:34in its first 24 hours of going on sale in November 2015?
0:07:40 > 0:07:44Well, I know she has sold probably millions by now,
0:07:44 > 0:07:46so I'm going to go for 300,000.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50300,000 is correct.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Tom.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56Which of these would one normally use to play the musical instrument
0:07:56 > 0:07:58known as the rubab?
0:08:02 > 0:08:04I've never heard of that instrument before.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09I'm going to go down the middle again, Jeremy,
0:08:09 > 0:08:10I'm going to go for bow.
0:08:11 > 0:08:12And bow is correct.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Hooray!
0:08:14 > 0:08:16OK. Judith,
0:08:16 > 0:08:21Penthouse And Pavement and The Luxury Gap
0:08:21 > 0:08:26are the titles of the early 1980s albums by which British pop group?
0:08:31 > 0:08:35Well, I've never heard of them or any of those pop groups written up.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39I don't know, Heaven 17.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41That's the correct answer, Heaven 17.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44Tom,
0:08:44 > 0:08:47the lyrics of Ian Dury And The Blockheads' song
0:08:47 > 0:08:52Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick include a mention of the vineyards
0:08:52 > 0:08:56of which French wine region?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04I'm singing it in my head now, embarrassingly.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11I'm going to go down the left, Jeremy, at Provence.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14- Provence is the wrong answer. - Is it Bordeaux?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17It's Bordeaux, it's the vineyards of Bordeaux.
0:09:17 > 0:09:18"Eskimo, Arapaho"?
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Move your body to and fro.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23- "Move your bodies to and fro," yeah.- Oh, no.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25So, it gives Judith a little in here.
0:09:25 > 0:09:30Adam And The Ants achieved their first UK number one single,
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Judith, with which song?
0:09:39 > 0:09:42Stand And Deliver was their most famous one, wasn't it?
0:09:44 > 0:09:47I'm just going to say Stand And Deliver.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49- Yeah, you've got it.- Hmm.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51You're right, it is Stand And Deliver.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53So, you've got, Judith, three out of three.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Tom, sorry, you've been knocked out by Judith
0:09:55 > 0:09:57and you won't be in the final round.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59But come back to us and we'll play on.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01So as it stands,
0:10:01 > 0:10:04What's My Line? have lost two brains from the final round,
0:10:04 > 0:10:08the Eggheads have not lost any and the next subject is Arts & Books.
0:10:09 > 0:10:10Who would like this?
0:10:10 > 0:10:13- We said Liz. Liz could do that. - I can't do it.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- Oh, you're done?- I've gone.- You've gone, haven't you?- Arts & Books.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19You or me, then.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22- Me?- Yeah.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- Patrick will be good, yes. - I'll go.- I think Patrick.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26OK, Patrick, against which Egghead?
0:10:26 > 0:10:29I think...Dave.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33I don't like the way he nodded there, though.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36No, well, that can make any thing, to be honest.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40Patrick from What's My Line? versus Dave from the Eggheads.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Please go to the famous room.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47- Patrick, you were a psychology teacher.- Indeed, yes.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50And I gather your students voted you the funniest teacher?
0:10:50 > 0:10:53- Funniest teacher two years running. - Oh, brilliant.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56And also the teacher who most resembles an animal?
0:10:56 > 0:10:58I'm very proud of that particular award, yes.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01- And did they say which animal? - A mole.- OK.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04- That's kind of a conversation stopper, isn't it?- Sort of, yes.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07All right, Arts & Books, good luck. Against Dave.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- And would you like to go first or second?- I will go first, thank you.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16And here we go with your first question.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20In writing, Patrick, what name is given to the attribution
0:11:20 > 0:11:23of human characteristics to something non-human?
0:11:29 > 0:11:33That would have to be, I think... It can't be alliteration
0:11:33 > 0:11:38because that's repeating a letter or a sound over again.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Repetition is obviously repeating something,
0:11:40 > 0:11:42it's got to be personification.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Personification is correct.
0:11:45 > 0:11:46- Dave?- Hmm.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50Complete the title of Michael Rosen's children's book
0:11:50 > 0:11:51We're Going On A...
0:11:57 > 0:11:59I've never heard of it.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06I've got to go Bear Hunt, but I've never heard of this.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Yeah, it is Bear Hunt. Lisa, it is quite a famous book, isn't it?
0:12:09 > 0:12:13It's fairly famous. It's about 25 years old.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16And the riff is "We're going on a bear hunt,
0:12:16 > 0:12:17"we're going to catch a big one,
0:12:17 > 0:12:19"what a beautiful day, we're not scared."
0:12:19 > 0:12:22And they go through improbable things like giant snowstorms
0:12:22 > 0:12:24and huge forests and stuff.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26And eventually, they're confronted with a bear
0:12:26 > 0:12:27- and immediately leg it.- Yeah!
0:12:27 > 0:12:30- So, it's a pretty rubbish bear hunt, really.- OK.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32So, Patrick.
0:12:32 > 0:12:37Which a real-life actor does the character Bridget Jones interview
0:12:37 > 0:12:40in the 1999 novel Bridget Jones - The Edge Of Reason?
0:12:47 > 0:12:53Never read the book, never saw the film, so I have absolutely no idea.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57I don't know why, but I'm drawn to Daniel Davies.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01It's a wrong, I'm afraid. It's Colin Firth.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03OK, Dave.
0:13:03 > 0:13:08PL Travers, the author who created Mary Poppins,
0:13:08 > 0:13:09was born in which country?
0:13:13 > 0:13:19Well, she was the one who famously had the arguments with Walt Disney.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Yeah, I've got to go Australia.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Must go Australia on that. Australia.
0:13:25 > 0:13:26Australia is correct.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28So, Dave is ahead.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31And, Patrick, that means you need to get this one right.
0:13:31 > 0:13:35The Cross In The Mountains painted in 1807
0:13:35 > 0:13:38is the first important oil painting by which artist?
0:13:47 > 0:13:501807? That's very early.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53I'm trying to get something from the names.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Unfortunately, I don't recognise any of the names.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00I will go straight down the middle, Matthias Grunewald.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04- Let's ask the Eggheads. Is it right?- No. It's Friedrich.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07Friedrich is the answer, Caspar David Friedrich.
0:14:07 > 0:14:08Oh, right.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10And that means there's no way back
0:14:10 > 0:14:11for you, Patrick, I'm afraid.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14David, you've beaten our Challenger and you will be in the final.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Please come back, rejoin your teams. We'll play on.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21What's My Line? have lost three brains from the final round,
0:14:21 > 0:14:26the Eggheads have not lost any. And our next subject is Film & TV.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- Who would like this?- Right.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31- Is that you? That's you, yeah? - I'll do it.- Yes?
0:14:31 > 0:14:35- Alistair.- Alistair, OK.- Yeah. - Against which Egghead?
0:14:35 > 0:14:37- I'll take on Kevin.- Yeah, well done.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41Alistair from What's My Line? fearlessly to going into battle
0:14:41 > 0:14:44with Kevin from the Eggheads, the Grand Master.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Please go to the Question Room now.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50OK, so Film & TV, Alistair.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Would you like to go first or second?
0:14:52 > 0:14:54I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00And here is your first question.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04Which TV sports programme, usually broadcast midweek,
0:15:04 > 0:15:07ran from 1968 to 1997?
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Well, I remember watching this on my old black and white television.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19I remember the theme tune as well.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23So, I'm going to go straight down the middle and say Sportsnight.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Very good, it is Sportsnight.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Over to you, Kevin.
0:15:27 > 0:15:28Which comedian
0:15:28 > 0:15:32and actor played an older Peter Pan
0:15:32 > 0:15:36in Stephen Spielberg's 1991 film Hook?
0:15:41 > 0:15:43I believe that was Robin Williams.
0:15:45 > 0:15:46Yes, Robin Williams.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Alistair, your second question.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54Which of these TV adventure series was created by Terry Nation
0:15:54 > 0:15:56in the late '70s?
0:16:03 > 0:16:07Well, Space - 1999 was a Gerry Anderson production.
0:16:07 > 0:16:12Because I was a big fan of his work, like UFO.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Battlestar Galactica came from America.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19Terry Nation was famous for devising Blake's 7.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21So, I'm going to go for Blake's 7,
0:16:21 > 0:16:24although Blake wasn't in quite a lot of this series.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26He disappeared halfway through.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Impressive, you're right. Blake's 7. Very good.
0:16:31 > 0:16:32This is your round.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Kevin, who was co-hosting the BBC Six O'Clock News
0:16:35 > 0:16:39with Nicholas Witchell in 1988
0:16:39 > 0:16:42when the studio was invaded by protesters live on air?
0:16:47 > 0:16:50I don't think it was, I don't think it was Anna Ford.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56I had a sort of first instinct about Jan Leeming,
0:16:56 > 0:17:00but I'm leaning more and more towards Sue Lawley now.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02I'll go with Sue Lawley, take a chance.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06- Yeah, it was Sue Lawley.- Yeah. - So, two-two.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09And back to you, Alistair.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13A rocking horse called Dapple appeared occasionally
0:17:13 > 0:17:15on which children's television programme?
0:17:21 > 0:17:27Well, Tiswas was more about custard pies than anything else.
0:17:28 > 0:17:33But Play School occasionally did have a little rocking horse
0:17:33 > 0:17:37that was a Dapple Gray, so I'm going to go for Play School.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Your knowledge is amazing. You're absolutely right.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45Very impressive
0:17:45 > 0:17:47TV round here.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49OK, Kevin. This to stay in.
0:17:49 > 0:17:55Which actor received Academy Award nominations for his roles
0:17:55 > 0:17:59in the films The Kids Are All Right and Foxcatcher?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Well, I think the only one there who was in both of those
0:18:08 > 0:18:11and a very good actor is Mark Ruffalo.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13Mark Ruffalo it is.
0:18:14 > 0:18:15OK, three-three.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18Alistair, we go to Sudden Death.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Gets a bit harder, I don't give you alternatives.
0:18:21 > 0:18:26TIM was the name of the computer in which children's
0:18:26 > 0:18:31television adventure series first broadcast in 1973?
0:18:31 > 0:18:35I am going to go for a science fiction programme
0:18:35 > 0:18:38because it was a 1973 computer children's programme,
0:18:38 > 0:18:40I'm going to go for something called The Tomorrow People.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42- You've got the right answer.- Whoo!
0:18:44 > 0:18:46Kevin, to stay in.
0:18:46 > 0:18:53In 1987, who became the first host of the UK quiz show Chain Letters?
0:18:56 > 0:18:58Not something I watched.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02I'm going to have to, no,
0:19:02 > 0:19:05I'm effectively throwing my hands up because it could be anybody,
0:19:05 > 0:19:07so I'm going to have to say a name and it may...
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Roy Walker.
0:19:12 > 0:19:13No, it's not.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16- Jeremy Beadle.- Ah.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Well done, Alistair, great round.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22You have knocked out Kevin and you will be in the final.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Please return to us and we'll play that final round.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29So, this is what we have been playing towards.
0:19:29 > 0:19:33It is time for our final round and, as always, it is General Knowledge.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:19:36 > 0:19:38won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41So, that is Tom and Liz and Patrick from What's My Line?,
0:19:41 > 0:19:44but also Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46Would you please leave the studio?
0:19:48 > 0:19:52Gren and Alistair, you're playing to win What's My Line? £6,000.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Judith, Dave, Lisa and Pat, you're playing for something
0:19:55 > 0:19:58that money can't really buy, which is the Eggheads' reputation.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04This time, the questions are all General Knowledge.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06You are allowed to confer.
0:20:06 > 0:20:07So, What's My Line?,
0:20:07 > 0:20:12the question is are your two brains able to defeat these four?
0:20:12 > 0:20:15And would you like to go first... Don't say no!
0:20:15 > 0:20:16Do you want to go first or second?
0:20:16 > 0:20:18We'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23OK.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27The often considerable terminal payments
0:20:27 > 0:20:29made to businesspeople whose services
0:20:29 > 0:20:34are prematurely dispensed with are known colloquially as what?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43- I've never had one, but it's a golden handshake.- Yeah, definitely.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46- Shall we go for it? - Yes, after much deliberation,
0:20:46 > 0:20:48we think that's a golden handshake, Jeremy.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Golden handshake is right. Well done.
0:20:50 > 0:20:51Eggheads,
0:20:51 > 0:20:55what name is given to a year between secondary
0:20:55 > 0:20:58and further or higher education
0:20:58 > 0:21:02when some school leavers travel or work before resuming their studies?
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Gap.
0:21:08 > 0:21:13- Gap year.- Yes. Gap year.- We're happy with gap?- Think so. Gap.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15That's a gap year, Jeremy.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17It is indeed, gap year.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Your second question.
0:21:20 > 0:21:27What word follows Falklands in a phrase used to denote
0:21:27 > 0:21:32the effect of the 1982 Falklands War on the popularity
0:21:32 > 0:21:36of Margaret Thatcher and the Conservatives around that time?
0:21:41 > 0:21:42Factor?
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Well, it trips of the tongue much more, Falklands Factor, doesn't it?
0:21:45 > 0:21:50- Yeah.- Alliteration.- We think that was the Falklands Factor, Jeremy.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52Absolutely, was the Falklands Factor, well done.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Eggheads.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58What name did the ancient Romans give to the region of Western Europe
0:21:58 > 0:22:00that was inhabited by Celtic tribes,
0:22:00 > 0:22:05including present-day France, Luxembourg and Belgium?
0:22:07 > 0:22:08Gallia.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11Gallia, it is.
0:22:11 > 0:22:16- "Divisa in partes tres" and all that.- And parts.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20- It's Gallia, Gaul.- Yeah. - It was further down, wasn't it?- Yes.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23- Gallia.- That was Gallia.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Gallia is correct. So, two-two.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27This is interesting.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Third question can be crucial.
0:22:29 > 0:22:35The new British Army raised to fight in the First World War
0:22:35 > 0:22:39was given a humorous nickname based on that of which
0:22:39 > 0:22:41theatrical producer and impresario?
0:22:49 > 0:22:54- Yeah.- I've heard of Fred Karno's Circus. Does that sound right?- No.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Fred Karno's Army, yeah. Pretty sure it was.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58I've not heard of the other two.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01Yeah, pretty sure that was Fred Karno's Army.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Fred Karno is right, well done.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06OK, Eggheads.
0:23:06 > 0:23:11If you get this wrong, £6,000 goes to our Challengers.
0:23:11 > 0:23:18The term nurdle, meaning to tap the ball unadventurously,
0:23:18 > 0:23:20comes from which sport?
0:23:23 > 0:23:25It's cricket.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Basically, I'll just explain what you do.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30You're nurdling a run.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Rather than trying to hit boundaries,
0:23:33 > 0:23:39you're nurdling the ball just to go for singles to change the strike.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42I've heard that term definitely used in cricket.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44- We're happy with cricket?- Yes.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Going for cricket, Jeremy.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48Cricket is the right answer. Well done, Dave.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52Very certain play, we go to Sudden Death.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Gets a bit harder, I don't give you alternatives.
0:23:56 > 0:24:01The Musical Honk by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe
0:24:01 > 0:24:04is based on which story by Hans Christian Andersen?
0:24:06 > 0:24:09- Honk?- Something to do with cars. Honk, it's got to be a duck.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12- Hans Christian Andersen, was it a goose?- Ah, yes!
0:24:12 > 0:24:15- The Ugly Duckling, that sounds right, doesn't it?- Yeah.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18- Honk, do you think it's about cars instead?- No.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21We don't think it's cars, we think it's animals.
0:24:21 > 0:24:22It's The Ugly Duckling.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26The Ugly Duckling is right.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28Sudden Death.
0:24:28 > 0:24:33Eggheads, what does the M stand for in the acronym
0:24:33 > 0:24:36of the opinion poll organisation MORI?
0:24:36 > 0:24:38- Is it market?- I think market.
0:24:38 > 0:24:43- Market Opinion Research Institute. I think it's market.- Market?
0:24:43 > 0:24:45- I think we've got to go market. - Go with it.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48- We all happy with the market? - Yeah.- Go with it.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51- OK, we're going for market, Jeremy. - Market is the right answer.
0:24:51 > 0:24:52Well done, guys.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54Challengers,
0:24:54 > 0:24:58in November 2015, the Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal
0:24:58 > 0:25:03pulled out of the race for which political party's nomination
0:25:03 > 0:25:04for the US presidency?
0:25:05 > 0:25:11Well, all the...all the news is about the Republican Party.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17My gut feeling is Republican,
0:25:17 > 0:25:20only because there's been a long list of candidates.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23- Yeah.- But it could be either, I really don't know.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25I've not been keeping up with American politics.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Well, we're not sure, Jeremy,
0:25:28 > 0:25:33but we think probably Republican.
0:25:33 > 0:25:39Because there's been so many runners gone in and dropped out.
0:25:39 > 0:25:40Republican is correct.
0:25:43 > 0:25:44Sudden Death.
0:25:44 > 0:25:50What marsupial lends its name to the British Parliamentary procedure
0:25:50 > 0:25:54whereby in the report stage of a bill, the speaker selects
0:25:54 > 0:26:00the amendments to be debated rather than having all of them discussed?
0:26:00 > 0:26:02I think it's kangaroo.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05- Yeah?- I'm pretty sure. - Pretty sure you've heard it?
0:26:05 > 0:26:08I've heard of it I'm sure in parliamentary...
0:26:08 > 0:26:11It immediately came to mind, yeah, kangaroo.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14- OK, is everybody else happy with that?- Yes.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16We're going for kangaroo, Jeremy.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19- Kangaroo is correct.- Well done.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Challengers, which physicist,
0:26:22 > 0:26:27a Nobel laureate, had a son who was himself awarded
0:26:27 > 0:26:30the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1975?
0:26:31 > 0:26:33- '75?- '75.
0:26:34 > 0:26:38So, we're talking a physicist, probably might have won
0:26:38 > 0:26:41in the '40s or '50s.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44- Yeah.- So, it will either be someone like Rutherford.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47What about the physicists...?
0:26:52 > 0:26:55Crick and Watson, they weren't physicists as such, weren't they?
0:26:55 > 0:26:57- Or were they?- No.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03- No.- Let's go for Ernest Rutherford.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06Yeah, we'll go for Ernest Rutherford, Jeremy.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09That's the wrong answer. Do you know the answer?
0:27:09 > 0:27:11Sounds like Niels Bohr and Aage Bohr.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Yes, exactly, Niels Bohr.
0:27:13 > 0:27:14Niels Bohr is the answer there.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Gives you a chance to win the contest.
0:27:16 > 0:27:21Which country singer born Ingram Cecil Connor,
0:27:21 > 0:27:26died on a visit to the Joshua Tree National Monument
0:27:26 > 0:27:29in 1973 at the age of 26?
0:27:29 > 0:27:32- 1973?- Gram Parsons.- Yeah, it is Gram Parsons, definitely.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35- Ingram would have to be Gram, wouldn't it?- Ingram.
0:27:35 > 0:27:36it is Gram Parsons.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40I believe that's right, yeah. It's around that time. Yeah, definitely.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43OK, we're going for Gram Parsons.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46Well, if you've got it right, you've taken the contest. Do you know?
0:27:46 > 0:27:49- We think that sounds right. - We think that's probably right, yes.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52The Gram, the Ingram. Does help.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54The answer is Gram Parsons.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57We say congratulations, Eggheads. You have won!
0:27:59 > 0:28:01Wow!
0:28:03 > 0:28:06- You guys were amazing. - We tried.- We're exhausted.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08And we don't often get a situation
0:28:08 > 0:28:10where Kevin is knocked out like that.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12- So, commiserations, What's My Line? - Thank you.
0:28:12 > 0:28:13Really well done to you.
0:28:13 > 0:28:17The Eggheads have ploughed through and won.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19And this winning streak continues.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £6,000,
0:28:21 > 0:28:24so the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:26 > 0:28:30That was a bit of a rough-and-tumble there, wasn't it?
0:28:30 > 0:28:34- Playing a great team here. - Great team, great team.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36- Thank you. - So, join us next time to see
0:28:36 > 0:28:40if a new team of Challengers will be just as good as this one.
0:28:40 > 0:28:44£7,000 says they can't beat the Eggheads. Till then, goodbye.
