0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:09 > 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 > 0:00:27Welcome 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 > 0:00:35- They are the Eggheads. Polite or ferocious today?- Both.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38- Both?- It depends how you treat us. - Right. Well, we'll see.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Challenging our resident quiz champions

0:00:40 > 0:00:42today are The Goats from Sunderland.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45Now, this team of friends all work in sales

0:00:45 > 0:00:46for a mobile phone network.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49The team name relates to their quizzing know-how,

0:00:49 > 0:00:52an abbreviation of Greatest Of All Time.

0:00:52 > 0:00:53Let's meet them.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Hi, I'm Roy, and I'm a sales coach.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Helen, and I'm also a sales coach.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02Hi, I'm Sarah, and I'm a team leader.

0:01:02 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Kat, and I'm a sales coach.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07Hi, I'm Lynsey, and I'm a campaign manager.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11So, Roy and team, welcome. Great to see you. Are you happy to be here?

0:01:11 > 0:01:12- We certainly are.- Good.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14And as soon as you said Greatest Of All Time,

0:01:14 > 0:01:16I could see them bristling.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18Just a heads up on that.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20So, the idea, I know,

0:01:20 > 0:01:25that term is used quite frequently in sport, Valentino Rossi,

0:01:25 > 0:01:29Phil Taylor, Muhammad Ali, so, if I'm honest, it's just a bit of fun.

0:01:30 > 0:01:34Just say it's seriously true. You can do it.

0:01:34 > 0:01:36I don't want to frighten anyone off.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39So tell us about the way you all work together in the phone company.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41Yeah, so we all work in sales

0:01:41 > 0:01:44within the same mobile phone network.

0:01:44 > 0:01:48So, it's retention-based, customers who are potentially looking

0:01:48 > 0:01:53to leave the business, find out why, and potentially retain that.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55So if I ring up and I say like I'm going to cancel,

0:01:55 > 0:01:58do you just give me everything free from then on?

0:01:58 > 0:02:02There's a little bit more to it than that. But, yeah, in theory.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05So, listen, good luck, winning today. I hope you've got

0:02:05 > 0:02:07your quizzing hats on. Excellent.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash

0:02:10 > 0:02:11up for grabs for our Challengers.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads

0:02:13 > 0:02:16the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19So, Goats, the Eggheads have won the last six games.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22They're just on a streak now, it's official.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24And that means there is £7,000 to win.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Would you like to try?

0:02:26 > 0:02:27We certainly would.

0:02:27 > 0:02:31Great. So, the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of History.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34- Who wants History?- Me.- Sarah.

0:02:34 > 0:02:38OK, team leader, I know, at the phone company.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Against which Egghead, Sarah?

0:02:41 > 0:02:45- Dave.- (I was going to say Dave.) - Tremendous Knowledge. OK.

0:02:45 > 0:02:48- I'm sensing you've got a plan, here.- Uh-huh.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50It's sounding good so far.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Sarah from The Goats versus Tremendous Knowledge Dave

0:02:53 > 0:02:54from the Eggheads.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56And just to ensure there's no conferring,

0:02:56 > 0:02:59would you please take your positions in our famous Question Room?

0:03:01 > 0:03:03You were hoping for History, Sarah.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05And I know you like to read about it. Favourite book?

0:03:05 > 0:03:08- The White Queen by Philippa Gregory. - And tell us what that's about.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11It's about the War of the Roses.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14And it's about when Richard of York actually

0:03:14 > 0:03:16lost at the Battle of Bosworth.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18And did you like history at school

0:03:18 > 0:03:20or did you kind of discover it afterwards?

0:03:20 > 0:03:22- A bit of both.- Really? How wonderful.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24Because not enough people take an interest,

0:03:24 > 0:03:26and I always regret not having done it properly at school.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28- I was really interested at school. - That's brilliant.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31And what period now are you most interested in?

0:03:31 > 0:03:34Still in the late Anglo-Saxons, the Norman times

0:03:34 > 0:03:36and also the Second World War.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38OK, brilliant. Well, that would come in handy in this round,

0:03:38 > 0:03:41- Dave, for sure.- Definitely. - Well, good luck, Sarah.- Thank you.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44- All the best to you, and would you like to go first or second?- First.

0:03:48 > 0:03:50Here we go. Sarah, your question.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53What was the Roman name for the city of Bath?

0:03:58 > 0:03:59Aquae Sulis.

0:03:59 > 0:04:03Aquae Sulis is quite right. Well done. Straight there.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06OK.

0:04:06 > 0:04:10Dave, the famous line, "Let not poor Nelly starve"

0:04:10 > 0:04:13was said about which historical female?

0:04:18 > 0:04:20I believe that's Nell Gwyn.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23Yes, you're right. And tell us about her.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26She was Charles II's mistress

0:04:26 > 0:04:28and she was good for me because she

0:04:28 > 0:04:30helped me along my way to winning a

0:04:30 > 0:04:32couple of pounds on another quiz show.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35- Would that be the Millionaire show? - Yes, yes.- What was your win there?

0:04:35 > 0:04:39- I finished two stages below Judith. - So you got a quarter of a million?

0:04:39 > 0:04:41- Yes, I did.- Well, Judith, how funny,

0:04:41 > 0:04:43because you won a million on an answer

0:04:43 > 0:04:45- which is up there as well.- Yes.

0:04:45 > 0:04:46It's always coming up.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48- Your patron saint.- My patron saint.

0:04:48 > 0:04:49- Eleanor of Aquitaine.- Yeah.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52OK, sorry, Sarah, we were reliving

0:04:52 > 0:04:54Judith's Millionaire moment.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Here's your question. In British history,

0:04:56 > 0:05:00which royal house immediately followed Queen Anne?

0:05:05 > 0:05:06Plantagenet.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10No, you've gone astray there, I'm afraid.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13Let's just get a bit of background from the Eggheads on this.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16- Queen Anne?- She was the last Stewart.- The last Stewart.

0:05:16 > 0:05:21- No children.- 1714, so that was when they imported George I.

0:05:21 > 0:05:22He was the first of the Hanoverians.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25Right, it was George I who followed her

0:05:25 > 0:05:30and he was the first Hanoverian, Sarah, so that's the correct answer.

0:05:30 > 0:05:31Dave...

0:05:32 > 0:05:33Stephen of Blois

0:05:33 > 0:05:38crowned himself King of England in 1135, upon the death of whom?

0:05:43 > 0:05:44Blois is B-L-O-I-S.

0:05:45 > 0:05:50That was 1066 with Richard... William I so 1135.

0:05:50 > 0:05:56Richard I was 1199 to 1215.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59Yeah, I've got to go Henry I, please.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01Is correct. Henry I.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03So, Sarah, you need to get this one

0:06:03 > 0:06:04right to stay in.

0:06:04 > 0:06:08Which of these historical figures died first? Sarah, was it...

0:06:12 > 0:06:13Clyde Barrow.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Give me your reasoning on that.

0:06:17 > 0:06:21Al Capone was in the 1900s, Wyatt Earp was in the 1800s

0:06:21 > 0:06:24and Clyde Barrow was in the early 1800s, I believe.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28Well, I'm not sure who Clyde Barrow was. Do you know?

0:06:28 > 0:06:31- He was something to do with being a gunfighter.- Right. Anyone know here?

0:06:31 > 0:06:34- Bonnie and Clyde?- I think he was half of Bonnie and Clyde.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37- Oh, he's half of Bonnie and Clyde? - Yeah.- I wish you'd got this right.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Wyatt Earp, it was.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42Let's just ask Kevin for some dates, Sarah.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45Well, Wyatt Earp, although he was obviously a Wild West figure,

0:06:45 > 0:06:47was actually very long-lived.

0:06:47 > 0:06:54And, so, although he was born back in 1848, he didn't die until 1929.

0:06:54 > 0:06:55Right, and Clyde Barrow...

0:06:55 > 0:06:59Five years later, he was killed, he and Bonnie were killed.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02And Al Capone died in 1947.

0:07:02 > 0:07:06Wyatt Earp died in 1929, and the others died after.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08OK. Sorry, Sarah.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11- It's all right.- No way back. Dave is in the final.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Please return to us, and we'll play on.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17As it stands, The Goats have lost a brain from the final round.

0:07:17 > 0:07:20The Eggheads have not lost any so far, but we are early days,

0:07:20 > 0:07:22and we play on now with Arts & Books.

0:07:22 > 0:07:23Who would like this?

0:07:25 > 0:07:27I can rule myself out straight away

0:07:27 > 0:07:29- because I don't read... - Yeah.- ..much.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31You're probably the biggest reader out of the lot of us,

0:07:31 > 0:07:35- but I don't know if you want to... - I can take it.

0:07:35 > 0:07:40I don't mind going for it. Just who against? Who should I go against?

0:07:40 > 0:07:43- Kat? OK.- Kat is going to... - Kat. Don't worry, Kat.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46I've got you back. Against who?

0:07:46 > 0:07:52- We obviously can't have Dave. - Chris?- Chris or Kevin?- Chris?

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Chris, please.

0:07:55 > 0:07:56- We'll go with Chris.- OK.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59So Kat from The Goats is going to take on...

0:07:59 > 0:08:02And I'm sensing a bit of, a bit of worry here, is there?

0:08:02 > 0:08:06- It's not our strongest subject.- It's not your subject. OK. Don't worry.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09Chris has his... You've got your weak spots, haven't you, Chris?

0:08:09 > 0:08:12- Oh, yeah.- So, you know, if we hit one of Chris's weak spots,

0:08:12 > 0:08:14he can go down like a pack of cards.

0:08:14 > 0:08:16Please go to the Question Room now.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20Tell us what you do, Kat, in the office.

0:08:20 > 0:08:27So, I'm responsible for increasing a particular area within the business.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30OK. And outside work, what do you like to do?

0:08:30 > 0:08:34I tend to find an activity that'll get my heart going.

0:08:34 > 0:08:38- I mean, I flew a plane, did a bungee jump...- Oh, really?- Yeah.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40- Appeared on Eggheads. - Appeared on Eggheads, yeah.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43OK, and how does this compare to a bungee jump?

0:08:43 > 0:08:45- It's about on par.- Yeah.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47Have you ever done a bungee jump, Chris?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49I don't think there's a bungee rope strong enough to stop me

0:08:49 > 0:08:52in a downward trajectory, so I wouldn't risk it.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54HE LAUGHS OK, Arts & Books, Kat.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57We know it's not the one you would have chosen, so don't worry.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00- Would you like to go first or second?- First, please.

0:09:04 > 0:09:05Here we go. Good luck.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09Finnegans Wake is a novel by which author?

0:09:13 > 0:09:16I don't believe it was Mark Twain.

0:09:16 > 0:09:19I'm more pulling towards Thomas Hardy.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25I think I'll go for Thomas Hardy.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27OK. Definitely a novelist.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30This is not his book, actually. It's James Joyce.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33So, sorry, you got that wrong.

0:09:33 > 0:09:34Chris, over to you.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37In which year was the artist Grayson Perry born?

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Ah, Grayson Perry.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45Now, he's not that old, and he's not that young either,

0:09:45 > 0:09:47so it must be 1960.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49It is 1960, well done.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51OK, Kat, here we go.

0:09:51 > 0:09:56In the John Everett Millais painting Ophelia,

0:09:56 > 0:09:57how is Ophelia portrayed?

0:09:57 > 0:09:59Is she...

0:10:04 > 0:10:08Um, if I'm honest, I've never heard of the painting.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10So it will be a complete guess.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16I'll go with lying on a chaise longue.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21Let's go to the Eggheads on this. Eggheads, any ideas?

0:10:21 > 0:10:22- She's...- Lying in water.

0:10:22 > 0:10:23..lying in water.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26OK, because Ophelia is, remind us.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28She's one of the two female

0:10:28 > 0:10:29leads in Hamlet.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31But she actually drowns herself.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34- And so the picture shows her floating in the water.- Right.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37- Surrounded by flowers. - With lots of flowers, yeah,

0:10:37 > 0:10:38she'd been picking flowers.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Basically, Kat, lying in water is the answer.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44So, Chris, if you get this one right,

0:10:44 > 0:10:45you're in the final round.

0:10:45 > 0:10:50Reverend Parris, Abigail Williams, and the slave girl Tituba

0:10:50 > 0:10:53are characters in which Arthur Miller play?

0:10:53 > 0:10:54Is this...

0:10:58 > 0:11:01Well, if there's a slave girl in it, it's got to be pre-1863.

0:11:02 > 0:11:06All My Sons is sort of corrupt Second World War contracting stuff,

0:11:06 > 0:11:09Death Of A Salesman is a human drama,

0:11:09 > 0:11:13so the play in question has got to be The Crucible.

0:11:13 > 0:11:17- Yeah, took place before those two, you're quite right, Chris.- 1692.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20- Salem witch trials. - Is that when it was, 1692, was it?

0:11:20 > 0:11:25Brilliant play as well. The Crucible's right. Kat, sorry.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28Chris beat you there. Not to worry. Come back and we'll play on.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33Well, right at the moment the Eggheads are flowing freely.

0:11:33 > 0:11:34So they've got to be stopped.

0:11:34 > 0:11:38We'd sort of had in mind subjects that we'd assigned ourselves

0:11:38 > 0:11:42to, so, they haven't really... It hasn't went to plan as yet.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44That does happen a lot, but, honestly,

0:11:44 > 0:11:48we had a win from a very difficult position for the Challengers

0:11:48 > 0:11:51where there was only one player left and, honestly,

0:11:51 > 0:11:53they seemed to be out of it and they won.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56In fact, they won 7,000, I think.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59So, do not fear, it is never over until the very last moment.

0:11:59 > 0:12:03So, The Goats have lost two brains from the final round.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05The Eggheads have not lost any so far,

0:12:05 > 0:12:09but things can change, and the next subject for you is Sport.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11- Who would like this? - I've put myself

0:12:11 > 0:12:13- forward for this.- Right. OK.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15Against which Egghead, Roy?

0:12:15 > 0:12:19Prior to the last couple of days, doing a bit of research,

0:12:19 > 0:12:21I would have actually picked Lisa.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24However, Lisa does know her stuff, more than I realised,

0:12:24 > 0:12:28so I think I'm going to go for Judith. But that could cost me.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32Sorry, Judith, I tried. Apparently, I know stuff.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Well, Judith wins one more, she's on 600 wins,

0:12:35 > 0:12:37head-to-heads on Eggheads.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39- So let's see if this is the one. - Not just in Sport!

0:12:39 > 0:12:42That's not just in Sport, no. SHE LAUGHS

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Naughty man, whoever said that.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47So, Roy from The Goats versus Judith from the Eggheads.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49And just to ensure there's no conferring,

0:12:49 > 0:12:51please go to the Question Room.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55- So, is Sport your thing, Roy?- It is.

0:12:55 > 0:12:59I follow quite a few sports but, of course,

0:12:59 > 0:13:01it would just be my luck that the

0:13:01 > 0:13:03one that I don't follow comes up today.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05So, it's just one of them. We'll see what happens.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07Well, that happens to you quite a bit, Judith.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09The few sports that you don't follow come up.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12- Yeah, they always seem to come up. - Yeah, it's just bad luck.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16- So, Roy, would you like to go first or second?- I'll go first.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21And here is your first question, good luck.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24The former Liverpool footballer Bruce Grobbelaar

0:13:24 > 0:13:26usually played in which position?

0:13:29 > 0:13:33Well, lucky for me, actually, I remember this far back.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37So, Bruce Grobbelaar was a goalkeeper for Liverpool.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39He was indeed a goalkeeper.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43All right, your question, Judith.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45Heading towards our 600th win.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50Michael Chang was a famous name in which sport in the 1990s?

0:13:52 > 0:13:54- Michael Chang?- Michael Chang.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58I think he was a tennis player.

0:13:58 > 0:13:59- He was tennis, well done.- Yeah.

0:14:01 > 0:14:05Roy, which of these basketball players announced he would be

0:14:05 > 0:14:07retiring at the end of the 2015/16 season?

0:14:13 > 0:14:16I don't really follow basketball

0:14:16 > 0:14:21although all three names are familiar.

0:14:21 > 0:14:25Dennis Rodman and Shaquille O'Neal have been around for quite some time

0:14:25 > 0:14:28so that would make sense,

0:14:28 > 0:14:31although I think Dennis Rodman's already retired.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33Possibly the same with Shaquille O'Neill.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35Although this is probably going to cost me,

0:14:35 > 0:14:36I'm going to go with Kobe Bryant.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39Good play, it is Kobe Bryant. Roy, very good.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43Not an easy question. Judith,

0:14:43 > 0:14:47which major did the golfer Greg Norman win twice?

0:14:53 > 0:14:56I don't know. Um...

0:14:57 > 0:15:00I think he might have won the US PGA.

0:15:02 > 0:15:09- Dave knows. Dave?- Won The Open in '86 and '93, I believe.- The Open.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11- '86 and '93.- Hm.

0:15:11 > 0:15:15So, a chance, Roy, to book your place in the final

0:15:15 > 0:15:16if you get this one right.

0:15:16 > 0:15:20The American athlete Jim Hines won an Olympic gold medal

0:15:20 > 0:15:22in which of these events in 1968?

0:15:28 > 0:15:31I do enjoy watching the athletics.

0:15:31 > 0:15:37If I'm honest, I tend to look out for the shorter sprints,

0:15:37 > 0:15:40the 100, 200, relay, that kind of thing.

0:15:40 > 0:15:43I think the name would stand out more if it had been 100.

0:15:45 > 0:15:49I'm going to go 400 metres, as a guess, a genuine guess.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51- Yeah, it's 100.- Huh!

0:15:51 > 0:15:54So, ignore everything I've just said.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58Yeah, no, it's that far ago, maybe we have sort of forgotten him.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Anyone tell us anything about Jim Hines,

0:16:00 > 0:16:01why we should remember him?

0:16:01 > 0:16:03We were just discussing whether he

0:16:03 > 0:16:05was the first one to go under ten seconds.

0:16:05 > 0:16:09It could have been his predecessor who was Olympic champion,

0:16:09 > 0:16:12Bob Hayes, but I've got a funny feeling Jim Hines was

0:16:12 > 0:16:14the first to go under ten seconds.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16Yes, he was.

0:16:16 > 0:16:20So, Roy, he was the first to be under ten seconds.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22Well, I won't forget that one.

0:16:22 > 0:16:23Now, Judith,

0:16:23 > 0:16:25a chance to get back into it.

0:16:25 > 0:16:31David Pocock, one of the stars of the 2015 Rugby Union World Cup,

0:16:31 > 0:16:32represents which country?

0:16:37 > 0:16:39I think he, I'm not sure,

0:16:39 > 0:16:41I think it's Australia.

0:16:43 > 0:16:47You've got it right. Well done. Two points each after three questions.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49We go to Sudden Death.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52Roy, it gets a bit harder, I don't give you alternatives. OK?

0:16:52 > 0:16:55How many different table tennis competitions

0:16:55 > 0:16:58were staged at the 2012 Summer Olympics?

0:17:00 > 0:17:03So, I wonder if that means variations of the event

0:17:03 > 0:17:05or categories... Um.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09To guess, I'm going to say six.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13It's four, it's men's singles,

0:17:13 > 0:17:16women's singles, men's team, women's team.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20So, Judith, if you get this answer right,

0:17:20 > 0:17:22you will have won 600 head-to-heads.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25And you will have won it on Sport.

0:17:25 > 0:17:31Which Australian swimmer, born in 1982, is known as The Thorpedo?

0:17:31 > 0:17:33Well, his surname is Thorpe.

0:17:33 > 0:17:37And, I mean, I simply can't remember his Christian name. Um...

0:17:40 > 0:17:44- Ian, Ian? Ian Thorpe. - Ian Thorpe is your answer.- Yes.

0:17:44 > 0:17:49You've just won 600 head-to-heads, Judith. And you've done it on Sport!

0:17:49 > 0:17:51- Oh!- That was a hurdle.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54There we go, battling on through.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57Sorry, Roy. Forgive us, we have our little celebration,

0:17:57 > 0:17:59because to do it on Sport as well, Judith, really well done.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02It's rather ironic that it's on Sport, isn't it?

0:18:02 > 0:18:04Well, more than ironic, it's positively fabulous.

0:18:04 > 0:18:08What a tribute to you, to be on the show for this long, doing so well,

0:18:08 > 0:18:11on all subjects. Thank you, both. Roy and Judith,

0:18:11 > 0:18:13please come back and rejoin your teams.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18So now The Goats have lost three brains from the final round,

0:18:18 > 0:18:19the Eggheads have not lost any.

0:18:19 > 0:18:22We've just had an absolutely brilliant moment for Judith.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24The next subject is Film & TV.

0:18:24 > 0:18:28Last subject before the final, who would like this?

0:18:28 > 0:18:31- Do you want to take it or shall I? - I'll take it.- You.- Me?- Uh-huh.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33- I'll take it.- OK.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36All right. Well, you'll be in the final, Lynsey.

0:18:36 > 0:18:40Helen, we'll see if you will. Who would you like to take on?

0:18:40 > 0:18:45- Kevin or Lisa?- Kevin? - Yeah, yeah.- I'll go for Kevin.

0:18:45 > 0:18:49OK, so Helen from The Goats versus Kevin from the Eggheads.

0:18:49 > 0:18:50You're resigned to this or happy?

0:18:50 > 0:18:53Yeah, it goes how it goes, doesn't it?

0:18:53 > 0:18:54It goes how it goes, exactly.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56So please, for the last time, go to the Question Room.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01- Helen, I gather you like holidaying in Ibiza?- I do, yeah.

0:19:01 > 0:19:05- I've been seven times.- Oh, really? What is it you like about it?

0:19:05 > 0:19:10During the day it's quite relaxed and just everybody's dead happy.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13I do like going clubbing so I'm quite a fan

0:19:13 > 0:19:14of club music and stuff,

0:19:14 > 0:19:18- so I do enjoy going clubbing as well.- So you have some long nights?

0:19:18 > 0:19:21Definitely longer nights than days, definitely.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23And have you been to Ibiza, Kevin?

0:19:23 > 0:19:27I haven't, I haven't been to any of the Balearics, as it happens.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29Yeah. Would you like to take part in the club scene there?

0:19:29 > 0:19:33- Not really my sort of thing, I have to say.- I'm probably the same.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36- I like an early night. It's terrible, isn't it?- Yeah.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39I mean, the islands themselves are supposed to be very lovely.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42Obviously, there are plenty of historic things to go

0:19:42 > 0:19:45- and see as well, so that would be more my kind of thing.- All right.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47And how are you on Film & TV, Helen?

0:19:47 > 0:19:50Hit and miss, to be honest with you.

0:19:50 > 0:19:51We probably would have used Kat,

0:19:51 > 0:19:55had there been that option still there,

0:19:55 > 0:19:57- but I'll give it a go. - All right. Well, give it a go.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59And good luck getting into the final.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01Would you like to go first or second, Helen?

0:20:01 > 0:20:03I'll go first, please.

0:20:05 > 0:20:09Helen, your first question. Which of these people was a contestant on

0:20:09 > 0:20:13I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here in 2015?

0:20:17 > 0:20:19I didn't watch it.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21I'm probably one of the only people that didn't watch it,

0:20:21 > 0:20:22but I didn't watch it.

0:20:24 > 0:20:28I think I can rule out Duncan Bannatyne,

0:20:28 > 0:20:29I don't think he was on it.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Um...

0:20:31 > 0:20:34I'm going to go for...I'm going to go down the middle

0:20:34 > 0:20:36and go Deborah Meaden.

0:20:36 > 0:20:41Now, she was on Strictly. Was she on I'm A Celebrity?

0:20:41 > 0:20:42- Eggheads?- No.- No!

0:20:42 > 0:20:44It was Duncan Bannatyne.

0:20:45 > 0:20:46So, Kevin, back to you.

0:20:46 > 0:20:50Liza Minnelli won a Best Actress Oscar for her

0:20:50 > 0:20:51role in which film?

0:20:54 > 0:20:57She played Sally Bowles in Cabaret.

0:20:57 > 0:20:58Cabaret is correct.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01All right, your second question.

0:21:01 > 0:21:02What was the name of the character

0:21:02 > 0:21:08played by Beyonce Knowles in Austin Powers In Goldmember?

0:21:08 > 0:21:09Is it...

0:21:14 > 0:21:16Again, it's not something I've seen.

0:21:17 > 0:21:21Just knowing what the films are like, I'm going to go,

0:21:21 > 0:21:23again, down the middle with Holly Goodhead.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26No, it's Foxxy Cleopatra.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28So, Kevin, your chance to take the round if you get this right.

0:21:28 > 0:21:31What name was shared by the Blue Peter presenters

0:21:31 > 0:21:33with the surnames Purves and Duncan?

0:21:36 > 0:21:39That is Peter - Peter Purves, Peter Duncan.

0:21:39 > 0:21:42Peter is right. You are in the final, Kevin. Sorry, Helen.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45Come back to us, and we'll see what happens in that final round.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49So, this is what we have been playing towards.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51It is time for the final round which, as always,

0:21:51 > 0:21:52is General Knowledge.

0:21:52 > 0:21:55But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:21:55 > 0:21:57won't be allowed to take part in this round.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00So, Roy, Helen, Sarah and Kat from The Goats,

0:22:00 > 0:22:02I'm afraid I have to ask you to leave the studio.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06All right, so we are left with Lynsey here from The Goats.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09You were sitting very quietly on the end but I gather, now,

0:22:09 > 0:22:10- you're the boss.- Yes.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12And they were joking, just as they filed out,

0:22:12 > 0:22:14that you were going to discipline them now.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17Yes, I definitely will now. They've left me in this position.

0:22:17 > 0:22:21All right, you're the Goat. You think you're the Gerbils.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23Well, as I didn't have a head-to-head to play,

0:22:23 > 0:22:25I had all the show to come up with the perfect animal.

0:22:25 > 0:22:30So, Gerbils, yes. Greatest Ever Really, Barring Intermittent Lapses.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33- And what we are hoping for now is an intermittent lapse.- Yes, definitely.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35And, honestly, believe me,

0:22:35 > 0:22:37they can have a power cut, suddenly it's game on.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40So you are playing to win The Goats £7,000.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Chris, Judith, Kevin, Dave and Lisa, you're playing for something

0:22:43 > 0:22:46which money cannot buy, the Eggheads' reputation

0:22:46 > 0:22:49and to continue the streak and maybe even turn it into a roll.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54This time the questions are all General Knowledge.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57- You can confer, but, I'm sorry, that doesn't help you.- No.

0:22:57 > 0:23:01Lynsey, the question is, can you with your one brain defeat

0:23:01 > 0:23:06the Eggheads' five, rescue it for the team and become the office hero?

0:23:06 > 0:23:08- I'll certainly try.- Brilliant.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11- Would you like to go first or second?- First, please.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17OK, so General Knowledge and, Lynsey, your first question.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19According to the English proverb,

0:23:19 > 0:23:24which month is often said to come in like a lion and go out like a lamb?

0:23:24 > 0:23:25Is this...

0:23:27 > 0:23:34I will try March because of it being more towards spring

0:23:34 > 0:23:38and lambing season, but that's the only sort of thing that

0:23:38 > 0:23:42I can think that might put it as March.

0:23:42 > 0:23:46You're right. March, it is. Great start.

0:23:47 > 0:23:51Eggheads, the town of Cherbourg is on which body of water?

0:23:55 > 0:23:58- Channel?- Definitely the Channel? - Channel.- Channel.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01- It's a Channel port, isn't it? - Yes.- Yes, everybody? Lovely.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05That's the English Channel.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08It is the English Channel. Well done.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Second question for you, now, Lynsey.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14Which of these is an essential ingredient of zabaglione? Is it...

0:24:18 > 0:24:23And zabaglione is Z-A-B-A-G-L-I-O-N-E. Zabaglione.

0:24:23 > 0:24:27Don't know. Um...

0:24:28 > 0:24:30I'm going to try egg yolks.

0:24:32 > 0:24:37- Yeah, Eggheads, appropriately.- Yeah, yeah.- Yeah, yeah, you got it right.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40- Thank you.- Do you know what it is or have you seen it before?

0:24:40 > 0:24:44I do recognise the name, but I don't think I've had it before.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46I've got some kind of meringuey thing. Is that right?

0:24:46 > 0:24:49- It's sort of whipped up. - It's more like a syllabub, isn't it?

0:24:49 > 0:24:52- A sort of luxury version of custard.- Marsala or something.

0:24:52 > 0:24:56- Marsala wine is put in.- Yeah, OK.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58Well done, two out of two.

0:24:58 > 0:25:02Eggheads, Ian Ziering played Steve Sanders

0:25:02 > 0:25:04in which TV teen drama series?

0:25:09 > 0:25:14It's Beverly Hills 90210. He might pronounce his name "Ion" now.

0:25:14 > 0:25:18- Does he?- I think he does.- I didn't catch the name.- Instead of what?

0:25:18 > 0:25:21- Ian. He might do.- Well, he's the star of the Sharknado

0:25:21 > 0:25:23series as well, at which point I'd start pronouncing my name,

0:25:23 > 0:25:26- "No, no, I'm not that guy you're thinking of."- He might do.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29- But it's definitely Beverly Hills 90210.- It is, yeah.

0:25:29 > 0:25:33- 90210, da-da-da-da, da,da... All that, yeah. Yeah.- Yeah.

0:25:33 > 0:25:34Where were we, yes?

0:25:34 > 0:25:37Ian Ziering, Steve Sanders, that was Beverly Hills 90210.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39Beverly Hills 90210 is correct.

0:25:41 > 0:25:42Ha, I thought we might

0:25:42 > 0:25:44- throw them off with that one.- Yeah.

0:25:44 > 0:25:48Thought that could be the one, but they watch their TVs.

0:25:48 > 0:25:49Here is your question.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52See if you can get this one right, and then who knows?

0:25:52 > 0:25:56Donny and Marie Osmond were born in which US state?

0:26:01 > 0:26:03Again, I'm not sure.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06Um...

0:26:06 > 0:26:08I really don't know.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11I'm going to go down the middle and do Illinois.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13OK.

0:26:13 > 0:26:17Illinois is your answer. Any clues that can help us here?

0:26:17 > 0:26:20They're Mormons, so it would be Utah.

0:26:20 > 0:26:25Utah is the sort of central area. Salt Lake City and all that,

0:26:25 > 0:26:28where the Mormon church is based, is that right, Eggs?

0:26:28 > 0:26:30That's a sort of way of getting to Utah.

0:26:30 > 0:26:34So Utah is the right answer there. But you got two out of three.

0:26:34 > 0:26:35Let's see. The Eggheads

0:26:35 > 0:26:38get this wrong, we go to Sudden Death.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40If they get it right, the contest is over.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42£7,000, we are playing for.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45In Greek mythology, who was the mother of the twins,

0:26:45 > 0:26:47Apollo and Artemis?

0:26:47 > 0:26:48Is it...

0:26:50 > 0:26:54Thetis was the mother of Achilles. And it's not Andromeda.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57It is about the, well, in that sense,

0:26:57 > 0:26:59the only thing that Leto is known for, I think.

0:26:59 > 0:27:02Andromeda is the original babe chained to a rock, isn't she?

0:27:02 > 0:27:06- Yes, yes.- Yeah.- So it's Leto.- Leto?

0:27:06 > 0:27:08- Leto.- Okey doke.

0:27:09 > 0:27:13After consultation with my learned colleagues, that's Leto.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16And all the Gerbils are agreed?

0:27:16 > 0:27:18Yeah. Little furry tails up on this one.

0:27:18 > 0:27:21What was Gerbil standing for again?

0:27:21 > 0:27:24Greatest Ever Really, Barring Intermittent Lapses.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27Have you had a lapse here?

0:27:27 > 0:27:29The answer, Eggheads, is Leto. No lapse.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32We say, congratulations, you have won.

0:27:37 > 0:27:39Well, you played well there, Lynsey.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41Just that wretched Osmond question.
