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 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads, looking menacing.
0:00:32 > 0:00:36- Yes.- Hope so.- Good. I know they like to menace.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39Hoping to get one over on our quiz champions today
0:00:39 > 0:00:42are Rose And The White Horse. Now, this friends and family team
0:00:42 > 0:00:45take their name from the emblems of their home counties -
0:00:45 > 0:00:48the rose of Hampshire and the white horse of Kent.
0:00:48 > 0:00:49Let's meet them.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53Hello, I'm Roger, and I'm a retired naval warrant officer.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56Hi, I'm Chris, I'm a retired IT technician.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Christine, and I'm a retired teacher.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Hi, I'm Tim, and I'm a university tutor.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Hello, I'm Lin, and I'm a donor carer.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07So, Roger, team, welcome.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10- Friends and family?- Yes, yeah. - And you quiz together?
0:01:10 > 0:01:13We've never ever quizzed together as a complete team,
0:01:13 > 0:01:18but we all like quizzing, in either sort of groups or couples.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21And we've actually quizzed in a few unusual places.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Lin, last week, was actually quizzing in Finland.
0:01:24 > 0:01:29- And we've quizzed in places like on the Nile River...- Right.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33..on the Rhine, in New Zealand, China, places like that.
0:01:33 > 0:01:38And, in fact, Chris and Christine actually organise and run quizzes
0:01:38 > 0:01:40for a group that they work for.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44Well, that's absolutely fascinating. Thank you for that, and good luck.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46- Thank you.- Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash
0:01:46 > 0:01:48up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:50 > 0:01:53the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55So, Rose And The White Horse,
0:01:55 > 0:01:57the Eggheads have won the last six games,
0:01:57 > 0:01:59which means £7,000 says you can't beat them.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01So, they're on a bit of a streak,
0:02:01 > 0:02:04- and would you like to get cracking? ALL:- Yes.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09- Who would like this? - I think that's going
0:02:09 > 0:02:12- to be me.- I think it is.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15- Lin?- Yeah, Lin. - Like a lamb to the slaughter. Erm...
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Which Egghead looks unmusical?
0:02:17 > 0:02:21I'm going to be very brave and I'm going to take Kevin, please.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Lin from Rose And The White Horse versus Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27And to ensure there's no conferring,
0:02:27 > 0:02:30would you please take your positions in our famous Question Room?
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Lin, would you like to go first or second?
0:02:34 > 0:02:36I think I'd like to go first, please.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41So, here is your question. Good luck.
0:02:41 > 0:02:45How many of the Spice Girls had the first name Emma?
0:02:47 > 0:02:51- I'm going for one.- Can you name her?
0:02:51 > 0:02:52- Emma Bunton.- Yeah.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56- Yeah, Baby Spice.- Yeah, Bunton. Yeah, Baby Spice. One is right.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Kevin,
0:02:58 > 0:03:02Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau, the Welsh national anthem,
0:03:02 > 0:03:05translates into English as Land Of My what?
0:03:09 > 0:03:11That is Land Of My Fathers.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13It is indeed.
0:03:14 > 0:03:15Lin,
0:03:15 > 0:03:18which animals are mentioned in the lyrics of the carol
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Away In A Manger?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25It's definitely not sheep.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28I can't think of any camels being mentioned.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30I think it was the cattle that were lowing.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Cattle is right. Well done.
0:03:33 > 0:03:34Kevin,
0:03:34 > 0:03:38what name is given to a comic song in an opera,
0:03:38 > 0:03:43such as the Major-General's song in The Pirates Of Penzance,
0:03:43 > 0:03:46the effect of which depends on the rapid delivery
0:03:46 > 0:03:48of strings of words?
0:03:53 > 0:03:55That's called a patter song.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57It's called a patter song. Well done.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Two-two after two questions.
0:03:59 > 0:04:00Lin, hold him off.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Which of these composers was born first?
0:04:09 > 0:04:12I'm not very good on actual dates.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16Erm, I'm going to go for...
0:04:18 > 0:04:20- I'm going to go for Schubert.- OK.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23I don't know why, but I've just got a hunch.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24- You've got a hunch?- Mm-hm.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27OK, Kevin knows the dates, I bet.
0:04:27 > 0:04:32Yeah, that's right. He was 1797,
0:04:32 > 0:04:36Liszt was 1811 and Brahms was 1833.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38So, well done. You got it right, Lin.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41That's good. Three out of three. Kevin,
0:04:41 > 0:04:47which UK number one single for ABBA features the recurring line,
0:04:47 > 0:04:49"Cos somewhere in the crowd, there's you"?
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Hmm. No, I don't recognise the line, unfortunately.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Is there a line in Super Trouper that's something like,
0:05:02 > 0:05:03"I'm going to find you"?
0:05:05 > 0:05:09- HE HUMS - "I'm going to find you."
0:05:09 > 0:05:10That would fit.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15- So, I'll say Super Trouper. - JEREMY CHUCKLES
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- Lin, is he right? - He is, yes.- I can't...
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Can you sing it? I haven't got the voice for it.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22- Lin?- I can't sing it, no.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24# Somewhere in the crowd, there's you
0:05:24 > 0:05:28- BOTH:- # And like a super trouper, lights are gonna find me... #
0:05:28 > 0:05:32- It just sounded better with the rhythm, yeah.- Yeah.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34OK, anyway, three-all. Sorry, Lin.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36It goes to Sudden Death, OK?
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Gets a bit harder. I don't give you alternatives.
0:05:38 > 0:05:43In 2000, Mark Elder became music director of which British orchestra?
0:05:43 > 0:05:45I'm not 100% sure.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48I'm going to go for the Royal Philharmonic.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50No, it's the Halle Orchestra.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Kevin, for the round,
0:05:52 > 0:05:54which actress had parts of her singing
0:05:54 > 0:05:58dubbed by Leona Gordon in The King And I
0:05:58 > 0:06:02and by Betty Wand in West Side Story?
0:06:02 > 0:06:06In relation to the films, I can't think of anybody who was in both.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11I'm all over the place with this. I'll have to say Rita Moreno.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14You got it right. Well done.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Well,
0:06:16 > 0:06:18respect to the grandmaster there.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- How you did that... Lin, I'm sorry, but there we are.- It's OK.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24You've seen him working up close. It's quite impressive, isn't it?
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Please come back and rejoin your teams.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29So, Rose And The White Horse
0:06:29 > 0:06:31have lost one brain from the final round,
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- but you did well getting to Sudden Death.- Thank you.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36The Eggheads have not lost any. And we play on, and it's Sport.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Who would like Sport?
0:06:39 > 0:06:41- I think Tim? - Yeah, I think I'll take Sport.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43- You happy with that?- Yeah. - OK, yeah, we'll have Tim.
0:06:43 > 0:06:48- OK, Tim, university tutor, against which Egghead?- Chris? Chris?
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- Happy to take Chris?- Yeah. - Yeah? OK, Chris, then, please.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54OK, Tim from Rose And The White Horse,
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Chris from the Eggheads, please go to our Question Room.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Tim, let's see if you can pull one back for the Challengers.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Would you like to go first or second against Chris?
0:07:03 > 0:07:05I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11So, Sport, and here is your question.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Which Leicester City footballer
0:07:13 > 0:07:17scored in 11 consecutive Premier League games
0:07:17 > 0:07:19during the 2015/16 season?
0:07:24 > 0:07:30Erm, well, OK, I think that he beat Ruud van Nistelrooy's record
0:07:30 > 0:07:34of ten consecutive games, so I believe it's Jamie Vardy.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Jamie Vardy is correct. For which team?
0:07:38 > 0:07:40- You said in the question. It's Leicester City.- I did, sorry.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44LAUGHTER Yeah, for Leicester City. Well done.
0:07:44 > 0:07:45OK, Chris,
0:07:45 > 0:07:49in which year did Mexico City host the Summer Olympic Games?
0:07:54 > 0:07:56That one's going back a bit.
0:07:58 > 0:08:001968.
0:08:00 > 0:08:011968 is correct.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Tim, in rugby union,
0:08:06 > 0:08:10what is awarded after an unintentional knock-on
0:08:10 > 0:08:13in which the ball remains within the field of play?
0:08:17 > 0:08:19I believe that's a scrum.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22It is a scrum. Well done.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Chris, which tennis player
0:08:25 > 0:08:32won a record fourth straight ATP World Tour Finals title in 2015?
0:08:38 > 0:08:42Well, I think the days of Federer are past, to a certain extent.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Andy Murray, of course, won Wimbledon.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52But I think the current number one sort of hotshot
0:08:52 > 0:08:55is Novak Djokovic.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Novak Djokovic is the right answer.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Two-two. Your question, Tim.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Which of these is an American football team
0:09:02 > 0:09:04playing in the NFL?
0:09:10 > 0:09:14Right. Well, it's definitely not the Pittsburgh Pirates.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17I think they're known as the Pittsburgh Steelers.
0:09:17 > 0:09:22Erm, and the New Orleans Saints are one of my favourite teams,
0:09:22 > 0:09:23so I believe that leaves
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Carolina Panthers as the correct answer.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29It does. Really good quizzing. Well done. Carolina Panthers.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Three out of three for our Challenger.
0:09:32 > 0:09:33Chris, can you keep up?
0:09:33 > 0:09:37In which weight division did the boxer Anthony Crolla
0:09:37 > 0:09:39win a world title in 2015
0:09:39 > 0:09:43less than a year after suffering a fractured skull
0:09:43 > 0:09:47when confronting burglars at a neighbour's house?
0:09:51 > 0:09:56Er...don't think he's a lightweight if he went tackling burglars.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00There aren't that many cruiserweights about,
0:10:00 > 0:10:03so I'd say he was a middleweight.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06He can't be lightweight cos he tackled burglars - I love that.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07- But he can and he was.- Oh.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Lightweight's the answer. Tim, you're in the final.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13- Well done.- Thank you.- Please come back to us. We'll play on.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Nice work by Tim.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Rose And The White Horse have lost a brain,
0:10:18 > 0:10:20but the Eggheads have lost one now as well,
0:10:20 > 0:10:22and the next subject is Science.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- Who would like Science? - That'll be me.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26- We've only got one person on the side.- Chris?
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Against which Egghead?
0:10:28 > 0:10:30- Can I take Judith?- Yes, you can.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33So, Chris from Rose And The White Horse
0:10:33 > 0:10:35versus Judith, who once knocked out...
0:10:35 > 0:10:38- A rocket scientist. - ..a rocket scientist on Science.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41But failed on a nuclear physicist just the other day.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43That would have completed the set. You're right.
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Please go to the Question Room now.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48All right, game on. Chris, do you want to go first or second?
0:10:48 > 0:10:49First, please, Jeremy.
0:10:53 > 0:10:54And here we go.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56The term Wasserstoff,
0:10:56 > 0:10:59literally translating as water substance,
0:10:59 > 0:11:02is the German name for which element?
0:11:06 > 0:11:10Well, given that neither argon nor helium are
0:11:10 > 0:11:13constituent parts of water, I'll go for hydrogen.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16Hydrogen is right. Wasserstoff. Didn't know that.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20OK, Judith, which of these is a condition affecting the gums?
0:11:25 > 0:11:27I think blepharitis is something to do with your eyelids,
0:11:27 > 0:11:31and bursitis is sort of housemaid's knee or something like that.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34I think it's gingivitis.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36It is gingivitis, yes.
0:11:37 > 0:11:38OK,
0:11:38 > 0:11:40back to you, Chris.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44The French bacteriologist Albert Calmette
0:11:44 > 0:11:47and the veterinarian Camille Guerin
0:11:47 > 0:11:50are best remembered for their discovery of a vaccine
0:11:50 > 0:11:55first used on humans in 1921 for which disease?
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Now, my father suffered from tuberculosis,
0:12:02 > 0:12:06and they treated him with antibiotics in the '50s
0:12:06 > 0:12:07that hadn't long been discovered,
0:12:07 > 0:12:09so I think I'll rule tuberculosis out.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Smallpox, I think, was...
0:12:16 > 0:12:22..originally treated with something that was derived from cowpox.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24I think I'll go for measles, Jeremy.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29- Do you know, it's tuberculosis. - Oh!- Yeah.
0:12:30 > 0:12:31Judith,
0:12:31 > 0:12:36what name is given to the jar, invented in the 18th century,
0:12:36 > 0:12:38used for storing electric charge?
0:12:43 > 0:12:48Um, I think it's the Leyden jar.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51It is indeed. Brilliant.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52Back to you, Chris.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55In geological time,
0:12:55 > 0:12:59which period immediately follows the Silurian period?
0:13:03 > 0:13:06From what I remember of the Silurian,
0:13:06 > 0:13:10there were some fairly hefty animals around then.
0:13:10 > 0:13:14And the other period that I associate with
0:13:14 > 0:13:18that kind of life would be the Devonian, I think.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20I'll go for Devonian, Jeremy.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23You're playing well. Devonian is right. Well done.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26Now we see if that TB answer will cost you. Judith,
0:13:26 > 0:13:28if you get this right, you're in the final.
0:13:28 > 0:13:32The astronomer Tycho Brahe was born in which century?
0:13:36 > 0:13:38I have a feeling it was...
0:13:40 > 0:13:42I think it was the 16th century.
0:13:42 > 0:13:4415-something.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- 16th is correct.- Yeah.- Well done.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49You've won on Science. Sorry, Chris.
0:13:49 > 0:13:53Beaten by our Egghead, so you won't be able to help out in the final.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Please return to us and we'll see what happens next.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00So, as it stands, Rose And The White Horse
0:14:00 > 0:14:04have lost two from the final round. The Eggheads have just lost the one.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Another round before the final, though, and it's Politics.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09- Roger, who wants this?- I think
0:14:09 > 0:14:11- our Christine will take that. - Christine.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- Are you happy, Christine? - I'm happy to do that.- OK.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17- Against either Dave or Barry.- Dave? - OK, against Dave, please.- Dave.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20Right, so, Christine from Rose And The White Horse
0:14:20 > 0:14:23does Politics with Dave from the Eggheads.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24Please go to the Question Room.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29So, on Politics, Christine, would you like to go first or second?
0:14:29 > 0:14:31I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Here we go. Good luck.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38The full title of the role
0:14:38 > 0:14:42to which Philip Hammond was appointed in July 2014
0:14:42 > 0:14:46is Secretary of State for Foreign and what Affairs?
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Well, it's certainly not relationships,
0:14:53 > 0:14:55although that's a nice idea,
0:14:55 > 0:14:58and business is separate, so it's Commonwealth.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Commonwealth is correct.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Dave,
0:15:02 > 0:15:07James K Polk served as US president in which century?
0:15:11 > 0:15:17Yeah, erm, James K Polk was a 19th-century US president.
0:15:17 > 0:15:1819th century is right.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20OK, Christine,
0:15:20 > 0:15:22which of these couples met
0:15:22 > 0:15:25whilst working at the law firm Sidley Austin?
0:15:33 > 0:15:35Well, it's not Dave and Sam Cameron
0:15:35 > 0:15:38because Samantha Cameron isn't a lawyer.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42It could be Bill and Hillary Clinton.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45But Michelle Obama, I think, was also a lawyer,
0:15:45 > 0:15:47so I'd go for Barack and Michelle Obama.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50It's the Obamas. You're right.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Dave, who served as the Prime Minister of Jamaica
0:15:54 > 0:16:00between 1972 and 1980, and again from '89 to '92?
0:16:05 > 0:16:08Erm, I think his father was also prime minister.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10That's Michael Manley.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Michael Manley is quite right.
0:16:14 > 0:16:19Christine, the Prisoners - Temporary Discharge For Ill-Health - Act
0:16:19 > 0:16:21of 1913,
0:16:21 > 0:16:25passed to deal with the problem of hunger-striking suffragettes,
0:16:25 > 0:16:27was also known by what name?
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Well, this was the act where they released suffragettes
0:16:35 > 0:16:37so that they could rebuild their health
0:16:37 > 0:16:39and then they came back in,
0:16:39 > 0:16:42so it was known as the Cat and Mouse Act.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Cat and Mouse Act is correct.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Dave, to stay in,
0:16:46 > 0:16:50Rancho del Cielo near Santa Barbara in California
0:16:50 > 0:16:54served as a vacation home for which US president?
0:16:59 > 0:17:01The one US president out of those three
0:17:01 > 0:17:06I would associate with California
0:17:06 > 0:17:08is Ronald Reagan, so that's my answer.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12And Ronald Reagan is correct, so, equal after three questions.
0:17:12 > 0:17:13We go to Sudden Death,
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Christine. Here's your question.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19The Broadcasting Act of 1980
0:17:19 > 0:17:23started the process for the creation of which TV channel?
0:17:23 > 0:17:28Channel 4 started in 1982, so I would say Channel 4.
0:17:28 > 0:17:29Channel 4 is correct.
0:17:31 > 0:17:32Dave,
0:17:32 > 0:17:36in 2006, who became the youngest person
0:17:36 > 0:17:40and first woman to be elected Governor of Alaska?
0:17:40 > 0:17:43I've got some mad things coming into my head,
0:17:43 > 0:17:45but Sarah Palin.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Sarah Palin is right.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49OK, your question, Christine.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53Who did Michael Martin succeed
0:17:53 > 0:17:56as Speaker of the House of Commons in 2000?
0:17:56 > 0:17:59That would be the first female Speaker of the House of Commons,
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Betty Boothroyd.
0:18:01 > 0:18:02Yes, indeed. Betty Boothroyd.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05So, Dave, to stay in.
0:18:05 > 0:18:06Mm-hm.
0:18:06 > 0:18:10JBM Hertzog was prime minister of which country
0:18:10 > 0:18:14between 1924 and 1939?
0:18:14 > 0:18:1615 years?
0:18:16 > 0:18:19I'll have to go Germany, but I don't believe it's right.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22- No, South Africa is the answer. - Oh, right. Yeah, sorry.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25South Africa. Christine, you're in the final round.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- Well done. Well played. - Well done.- Very good quizzing.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Come back to us, both of you, and we will play that final.
0:18:32 > 0:18:33This is what we've been playing towards.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35It is time for the final round,
0:18:35 > 0:18:37which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:18:39 > 0:18:41will not be allowed to take part in this round.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45So, Chris and Lin from Rose And The White Horse,
0:18:45 > 0:18:48and also Chris and Dave from the Eggheads,
0:18:48 > 0:18:49would you please now leave the studio?
0:18:51 > 0:18:53So, Roger, Christine and Tim,
0:18:53 > 0:18:57you are playing to win Rose And The White Horse £7,000.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Judith, Kevin and Barry, you're playing for something
0:18:59 > 0:19:03which money really can't buy, which is the Eggheads' reputation.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08This time, they're all General Knowledge.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11You can confer. So, Rose And The White Horse,
0:19:11 > 0:19:15the question is, can your three brains defeat these three?
0:19:15 > 0:19:17And would you like to go first or second?
0:19:17 > 0:19:20We'll continue as we've gone on and we'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Here we go with your first question, Challengers. Good luck.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30What type of creature is The Beano character Biffo?
0:19:33 > 0:19:35- Bear. Bear, isn't he? - I've no idea.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37No idea? Was it not your era?
0:19:37 > 0:19:39I don't think he was in it when I read it.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42- THEY LAUGH - I just don't know.- He was...
0:19:42 > 0:19:45- No, it was Biffo the Bear. - Was it?- Yeah, definitely.
0:19:45 > 0:19:46- Go with you, then. - We'll go with you.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48Our answer is bear, Jeremy.
0:19:48 > 0:19:49Yeah, bear is right. Well done.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Eggheads, which model
0:19:51 > 0:19:56is the mother of Rod Stewart's children Renee and Liam?
0:20:00 > 0:20:01Oh.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05- Not a good start, is it?- Well, Penny Lancaster's his current wife.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08- Rachel Hunter was... - Well, he's had...
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Well, did Britt Ekland have any children...?
0:20:10 > 0:20:13I don't think he had children with Britt Ekland.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Well, then, I think it's Rachel Hunter.
0:20:15 > 0:20:16What do you think, Barry?
0:20:16 > 0:20:18Well, I know he's got one with Penny,
0:20:18 > 0:20:21- but I think that was rather late, so...- OK.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23My feeling is maybe Rachel Hunter.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25- And my instinct is Rachel.- OK.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27So, shall we go for...?
0:20:27 > 0:20:28- I think we'll have to.- All right.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31Well, as you gather, we're not really certain on this.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33We don't think it was Britt Ekland,
0:20:33 > 0:20:36but we're going to go for Rachel Hunter anyway
0:20:36 > 0:20:37- and keep our fingers crossed.- OK.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Gosh, you got stuck on the first question here.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44He has had two with Penny. Their names are Alastair and Aiden.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47You got it right. Well done. Rachel Hunter.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Phew!
0:20:49 > 0:20:53Rose And The White Horse, in the Greek alphabet,
0:20:53 > 0:20:56which letter immediately follows iota?
0:21:00 > 0:21:04- Kappa.- Kappa, isn't it?- There's no J, so it's got to be kappa.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06- That's it. I was thinking kappa. - Happy with that?
0:21:06 > 0:21:08- Yeah, absolutely. - Yeah, go for kappa.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Er, that sounds to me
0:21:11 > 0:21:15as if it's going to come earlier on in the alphabet.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17Pi and sigma are further along,
0:21:17 > 0:21:19so we're going to go with kappa.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Kappa's right. Well done.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24Eggheads, who designed
0:21:24 > 0:21:26the London Underground maps
0:21:26 > 0:21:29resembling electrical circuit diagrams
0:21:29 > 0:21:31that were first published in 1933?
0:21:38 > 0:21:41- All happy with Harry Beck? - Harry Beck, yeah.- Yes, this is
0:21:41 > 0:21:45as chestnut of a question as you possibly could have,
0:21:45 > 0:21:48so we definitely know that it's Harry Beck.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Harry Beck is right.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52Challengers, which prime minister
0:21:52 > 0:21:56does Alec Guinness play in the 1950 film The Mudlark?
0:22:02 > 0:22:05- What does Alec Guinness look like? That might help me.- Alec Guinness...
0:22:05 > 0:22:08- Describe him to me. - He's...- Dark hair.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Yeah, but he can play so many characters.
0:22:11 > 0:22:12He's a brilliant actor.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16I wouldn't have thought... I would like to rule out Robert Peel.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18- I don't think it was that.- OK.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22The Mudlark seems to me as if it's more of a sort of...
0:22:23 > 0:22:26..a naval type film.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29- Perhaps I'm getting it mixed up with something else.- What, The Navy Lark?
0:22:29 > 0:22:32Yeah, but the mudlarks are...
0:22:33 > 0:22:34The mudlarks were
0:22:34 > 0:22:37a group of youngsters
0:22:37 > 0:22:39who used to dive for money
0:22:39 > 0:22:44in the mud in sort of Victorian times.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47So, we're getting rid of David Lloyd George, then?
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Get rid of David Lloyd George, and I think, out of the other two...
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Victorian? Disraeli?
0:22:55 > 0:22:57So, you're going for Disraeli?
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Well, if I had to choose now out of the three,
0:23:00 > 0:23:01I would go for Disraeli,
0:23:01 > 0:23:05but that's only loosely based on what I know about mudlarks,
0:23:05 > 0:23:07and so that might be something totally different to the film.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10If I had to put money on it,
0:23:10 > 0:23:12- I would say Benjamin Disraeli. - Let's go with you.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15I think you've got more idea than we have, so let's go with that.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17- I don't know about that. - Let's give it a go.
0:23:17 > 0:23:18Let's give it a go.
0:23:18 > 0:23:22As you can guess, Jeremy, we don't really know about this,
0:23:22 > 0:23:25and The Mudlark is possibly different
0:23:25 > 0:23:28to what I was thinking about with mudlarks.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33Having said that, we will go with Benjamin Disraeli.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35You got the right answer. Well done.
0:23:35 > 0:23:36You're doing really well there.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Eggheads, to stay in,
0:23:38 > 0:23:40in mythology,
0:23:40 > 0:23:44Lavinia was the wife of which Trojan hero?
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Oh, gosh, this is another one we should know.
0:23:51 > 0:23:52I'm no good with mythology.
0:23:52 > 0:23:57- Doesn't come immediately to mind. - Lavinia?- Lavinia?- Lavinia.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01- Well, Paris was a bachelor, wasn't he?- Yes.- With the Judgment.
0:24:03 > 0:24:07I don't recall Paris having a wife before they abducted Helen.
0:24:09 > 0:24:10I'm a bit...
0:24:10 > 0:24:14I thought Hector's wife... Was Hector's wife Andromache?
0:24:14 > 0:24:15Who was Aeneas's wife?
0:24:17 > 0:24:19I'm trying to remember her name now.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21I don't think it was Hector.
0:24:21 > 0:24:22I still think it's Aeneas.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25- I think Hector is Andromache. - I think Hector is Andromache.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Ah, I'll tell you what it is with Aeneas
0:24:27 > 0:24:29and why I was getting confused there.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34His Trojan wife, his first wife, she...
0:24:34 > 0:24:37- His Roman wife? - ..dies in the process.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39- Yeah, that's right. - Cos Lavinia's a Roman name.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43It's The Aeneid. So, when they get to Italy,
0:24:43 > 0:24:47he marries the daughter of the King of Latium, I think it is...
0:24:47 > 0:24:49- Ah.- Who's called Lavinia. - ..and that's Lavinia.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51- So, she wasn't his only wife... - Ah, yeah.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54- ..but she was his wife later on. - Second wife.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57- He lost one wife in the Sack of Troy.- OK.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01- So, we're happy with Aeneas?- Yeah, it's Aeneas, yeah.- All right, well,
0:25:01 > 0:25:03we don't think Paris had a wife,
0:25:03 > 0:25:05we think Hector's wife was Andromache,
0:25:05 > 0:25:07so we're going to go for Aeneas.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Didn't you have problems with a mythology question the other day?
0:25:10 > 0:25:13- We certainly did.- Yeah.- It lost something for us the other day, yes.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16Well, this one, you've got right. Well done.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18- Well done.- Aeneas. Well done, Kevin.
0:25:18 > 0:25:19That came together. Isn't he amazing?
0:25:19 > 0:25:22- They all are, really.- Yeah.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24Got the whole story there.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26So, three each after three questions.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29We go to Sudden Death.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Gets a bit harder. I don't give you alternatives.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34In the US sitcom The Golden Girls,
0:25:34 > 0:25:38what was the first name of the character played by Betty White?
0:25:38 > 0:25:40- Don't know why you're both looking at me.- No.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43- Never watched it.- Before my time. - Have you seen it?- No.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46- See, I don't even recognise the name Betty White.- No.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48- Do you know any of the characters from The Golden Girls?- No.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51No, that's just what I was thinking. I don't know any of them.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54- If we're thinking of sort of that... - That era.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57So, we're looking for older names, older girls' names.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59What decade are we looking at?
0:25:59 > 0:26:01We're looking at... Well, they would have been...
0:26:01 > 0:26:04We're talking probably about the sort of...
0:26:04 > 0:26:06- That was in the '70s, '80s?- Yes.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09And they were golden girls then, so we're probably talking...
0:26:09 > 0:26:10- '60s, '70s themselves.- Yeah.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13So, we're probably looking at people born
0:26:13 > 0:26:17in the first ten to 20 years of the 20th century.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20So, looking at popular girls' names from then.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23But because they were also girls with a bit of go...
0:26:23 > 0:26:27- Yeah, no, no, you're right. - ..they've probably been given names
0:26:27 > 0:26:30that weren't sort of considered flat and dull in the '70s.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33- So, they might not have been Dorises or Ednas.- No, no, no.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36- So, they might have been... - So, like, a Marilyn or something?
0:26:36 > 0:26:39- Marion came to my mind, actually. - Marion or Marilyn?
0:26:39 > 0:26:43- Something like that.- Marion? Jane? - I think something with a bit more...
0:26:43 > 0:26:44- Marion?- Yeah, something with...
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Marion actually sounds that sort of era,
0:26:46 > 0:26:48- but I think it's a pure guess.- Yeah.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50It's a pure guess cos we have no idea.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53Marion. That's what came to my mind as soon as they said it,
0:26:53 > 0:26:56- and I've never seen it. - OK, OK.- Really?- Yeah.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Jeremy, you've realised that we...
0:26:58 > 0:27:00- I don't think any of us have seen this.- Yeah.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03So, we're just trying to...
0:27:03 > 0:27:04We know roughly the sort of era
0:27:04 > 0:27:08- and we're trying to work out names based on that.- Sure.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10I don't think we've even heard of Betty White,
0:27:10 > 0:27:13so we're just going to have, unfortunately, a stab in the dark,
0:27:13 > 0:27:16and we're going to go with... Marion?
0:27:16 > 0:27:18- ..Marion.- OK.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21- Let's see if the Eggheads know. - I've been trying to remember this.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Been running through the character names.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25- There's a Rose. - There was one called Dorothy,
0:27:25 > 0:27:27- one called Rose.- A Blanche. - There was a Blanche.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Rose is the one I'm inclined to at the moment.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32- Yeah.- But there's a name missing because there are four of them.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Is Sophie one of them? Sophia?
0:27:34 > 0:27:37- Oh, was there a Sophia? - There might have been.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39- So, you would have gone...? - Possibly Rose in the end, but...
0:27:39 > 0:27:42- Yeah, Rose is the answer. - Oh, it was Rose.- Rose is the answer.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44Your inklings, Kevin.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48You're amazing today, Eggheads. Up against a very good team as well.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50So, your question, Eggheads,
0:27:50 > 0:27:52will take the contest if you get it right.
0:27:52 > 0:27:56Sierra Leone has a coastline on which ocean?
0:27:56 > 0:27:59- Atlantic.- Atlantic.- Yeah.- Yeah?- Yes.
0:27:59 > 0:28:03It's the Atlantic. It's West Africa. It's on the west coast of...
0:28:03 > 0:28:05Sierra Leone is on the west coast of Africa,
0:28:05 > 0:28:08which puts it on the Atlantic Ocean.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12I won't dilly-dally. Atlantic is the right answer.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14We say congratulations, Eggheads. You have won.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22And I know you knew that last one, of course.
0:28:22 > 0:28:25THEY LAUGH But well played. My goodness.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.
