0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:12 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz Challengers pit
0:00:26 > 0:00:29their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31They are the Eggheads.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34Taking on our awesome quiz champions today are The Farmers Arms
0:00:34 > 0:00:36from North Yorkshire.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39This friends and family team regulars at The Farmers Arms
0:00:39 > 0:00:41in Brompton on Swale, Richmond,
0:00:41 > 0:00:44where team member Dave hosts the weekly quiz.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Let's meet them.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Hi, I'm Sue, and I'm a retired management consultant.
0:00:49 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Chris, I'm a retired pathology laboratory manager.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Lesley, and I'm a retired florist.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01Hi, I'm Dinah, I'm a retired primary school teacher.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Hi, I'm Dave, I'm a retired Maths teacher.
0:01:05 > 0:01:06So, Sue and team, welcome.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09- Great to see you. ALL:- Hello.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11The Farmers Arms is obviously at the centre of this, Sue, is it?
0:01:11 > 0:01:15- Absolutely.- And tell us about the pub first of all.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19The pub's in Brompton on Swale, it's a great pub to go for Sunday lunch.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22Yeah? And you all get together and quiz there?
0:01:22 > 0:01:26Yes, we do, Dave sets the questions and we try and answer them.
0:01:26 > 0:01:30Is the question setter a key person in the team today, Dave?
0:01:30 > 0:01:31Eh... No.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33THEY LAUGH
0:01:33 > 0:01:36OK, well, good luck, team.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38I hope you do really well.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:43 > 0:01:46the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Farmers Arms, the Eggs have won just the last game,
0:01:49 > 0:01:53so it means there's £2,000 on the table for you if you win today.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56They really want to get cracking here,
0:01:56 > 0:01:58cos they've had a few awkward moments.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Geography,
0:02:01 > 0:02:03- so who would like this? - What do we think?
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Lesley? Going to be Lesley?
0:02:05 > 0:02:08- It was meant to be me. - Are you all right with that, Lesley?
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Yeah, well, in for a penny, in for a pound, yeah.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12- All right, Lesley?- Yeah, I'll do it.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- Lesley, OK. - And I'd like to take on...
0:02:14 > 0:02:15Who are you going to choose?
0:02:15 > 0:02:20- Lisa.- All right, so Lesley from The Farmers Arms, taking on Lisa,
0:02:20 > 0:02:22straight away to Geography!
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- Surprise!- To ensure there's no conferring,
0:02:24 > 0:02:25would you please take your positions
0:02:25 > 0:02:28in the legendary Eggheads Question Room?
0:02:29 > 0:02:31OK, Lesley, good luck.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Would you like to go first, or second?
0:02:33 > 0:02:35I'd like to go first please.
0:02:38 > 0:02:39So your question is this, Lesley.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43Which city, which had been the capital of Czechoslovakia,
0:02:43 > 0:02:47subsequently became the capital of the Czech Republic in 1993?
0:02:51 > 0:02:52Oh, er...
0:02:52 > 0:02:55I'm not 100% certain on this one.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Um...
0:02:57 > 0:03:00I think I'll go for Prague.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02- Yes, completely right, well done. - Thank goodness.
0:03:02 > 0:03:06Zagreb is Croatia, any Challengers know where Tirana is?
0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Albania?- Albania, that's right, so Prague is right.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Lisa, which American city
0:03:11 > 0:03:14is most associated with the nickname, The City By The Bay?
0:03:18 > 0:03:20LISA CHUCKLES
0:03:20 > 0:03:23First thought was San Francisco, so we best go with that.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25San Francisco is quite right.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27- Have you been there? - No, I'd love to go.
0:03:27 > 0:03:32My sister actually is out there as we speak having a wonderful holiday.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34OK, back to you, Lesley.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38Mount Saint Elias, one of the highest peaks in North America,
0:03:38 > 0:03:43straddles both the Yukon Territory in Canada and which US state?
0:03:49 > 0:03:50I think I'll...
0:03:52 > 0:03:54I think I'll go for Alaska.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- OK, Alaska is right, Lesley. - Oh! Thank goodness for that.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Well done you. OK, Lisa, your second question.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04The Victoria Falls are located on the border between Zimbabwe
0:04:04 > 0:04:06and which other country?
0:04:10 > 0:04:14Do you know what? I bet only one of them's got border with Zimbabwe.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18She says that, thinking about it,
0:04:18 > 0:04:20I think only one of them has got a border with Zimbabwe,
0:04:20 > 0:04:22which would make it Zambia.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25You're absolutely right, it is Zambia. Nicely done!
0:04:25 > 0:04:29Good map work. OK, Lesley.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Mount Meru is a stratovolcano
0:04:32 > 0:04:35in which African country?
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Mount Meru...
0:04:41 > 0:04:45I think I will go with...
0:04:47 > 0:04:50The one I don't know anything about, or will I?
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Yes, I'll go with Equatorial Guinea.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56It is in Africa.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57Any Challengers know this?
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Where would we go? Eggheads, where would we go here?
0:05:01 > 0:05:03- Tanzania. - BARRY:- Tanzania, I would guess.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Tanzania is the right answer, Lesley.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Two out of three.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10Now Lisa has a chance to book her place in the final.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12What is the English translation of the name
0:05:12 > 0:05:14of the African capital city, Addis Ababa?
0:05:18 > 0:05:20I've been caught on these before.
0:05:22 > 0:05:23Addis Ababa...
0:05:25 > 0:05:29Now, I like home of peace, that is the best logic I can come up with.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31So I will say home of peace.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34And it sounds, Addis Ababa sounds like "Addis" means home,
0:05:34 > 0:05:36and "Ababa" means of peace.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39You're going to tell me right now that isn't the case, aren't you?
0:05:39 > 0:05:41- It means new flower. - Oh, well, that's nice to know.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44But you said it with such conviction I began to believe it myself.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47OK, Lesley, we're on Sudden Death now.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Two questions out of three right, it gets a bit harder now,
0:05:50 > 0:05:53I don't give you different options.
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Caracas is the capital of which South American country?
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Oh... South America and me do not go together.
0:06:01 > 0:06:02Um, Caracas...
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Uruguay.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08No, it's not, it's Venezuela.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10All right.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12OK, Lisa.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15In Spanish, what is the name for the Falkland Islands?
0:06:15 > 0:06:19And if you get this right, you are in the final round.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21I believe they're called the Malvinas.
0:06:21 > 0:06:22Malvinas is the right answer.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Well done, on Sudden Death you've taken it, Lisa.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Sorry, Lesley, beaten by our Egghead and knocked out.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31Come back to us and we'll see what'll happens in the next round.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35So, as it stands, The Farmers Arms have lost one brain
0:06:35 > 0:06:38from the final round, the Eggheads haven't lost any so far,
0:06:38 > 0:06:40and the next subject is Arts & Books.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Sue, who would like this, do you think?
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Oh, it was going to be Pam. - Dinah?- Dinah?
0:06:46 > 0:06:48- Do I have to?- I think so.
0:06:48 > 0:06:49I fear you do.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52- Oh, right, OK.- You do, Dinah.
0:06:52 > 0:06:53Take one for the team.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Yes, pick an Egghead, Dinah, you'd like to play against.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- Barry?- Yeah, go for Barry. - Barry, please.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02OK, Dinah versus Barry from the Eggheads,
0:07:02 > 0:07:04please go to our Question Room.
0:07:06 > 0:07:07Good luck, Dinah. Arts & Books,
0:07:07 > 0:07:09would you like to go first, or second?
0:07:09 > 0:07:10I'd like to go first, please.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17And here we go, then, with your first question.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Dinah, in which type of theatrical event would you be most likely
0:07:20 > 0:07:24to hear the audience shout, "He's behind you?"
0:07:27 > 0:07:28That's pantomime.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- It's definitely pantomime, well done.- Oh, no it isn't.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33ALL LAUGH
0:07:33 > 0:07:34Oh, yes, it is!
0:07:36 > 0:07:37OK, Barry.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40In the Charlotte Bronte novel, Jane Eyre,
0:07:40 > 0:07:45who is the central character talking about in the famous line,
0:07:45 > 0:07:47"Reader, I married him?"
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Well, Mr Micawber is from Charles Dickens,
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Mr Darcy, of course, is Pride and Prejudice,
0:07:57 > 0:08:00but Jane Eyre famously married Mr Rochester.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03You're absolutely right, a really interesting, unusual book in a way,
0:08:03 > 0:08:05- isn't it?- It's a beautiful book.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Yes, it is. Mr Rochester's quite right.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09Dinah, who wrote the
0:08:09 > 0:08:132007 book entitled The Uncommon Reader
0:08:13 > 0:08:16in which the Queen stumbles into a mobile library
0:08:16 > 0:08:19parked at Buckingham Palace,
0:08:19 > 0:08:22and consequently turns into an avid reader?
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Well, I have not heard of it, I'm afraid,
0:08:28 > 0:08:32but from cancelling out JK Rowling...
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Mmm, I don't know,
0:08:34 > 0:08:36she doesn't just write children's books, does she?
0:08:36 > 0:08:40Hillary Mantell writes historical novels.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42It sounds like Alan Bennett,
0:08:42 > 0:08:45but JK Rowling has written non-Harry Potter
0:08:45 > 0:08:48ones as well, hasn't she?
0:08:48 > 0:08:49Um...
0:08:50 > 0:08:52I think I will go for JK Rowling.
0:08:52 > 0:08:57Oh, your logic was impeccable until you chose the answer.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59- Was it Alan Bennett? - Yes, it was Alan Bennett.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01OK, Barry.
0:09:01 > 0:09:06Nicholas Bentley drew the pictures for the first illustrated edition
0:09:06 > 0:09:08of which book by TS Eliot?
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Well, it is hard to see how the Ash Wednesday
0:09:17 > 0:09:20or The Waste Land would require illustrations,
0:09:20 > 0:09:23so on that principle I will go for Old Possum's Book Of Practical Cats.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26And you would be 100% right, well done.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28- OK, Dinah, you need to get this one right to stay in.- Oh.
0:09:28 > 0:09:34Antigone is a play by which dramatist of the fifth century BC?
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Oh...
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Unlike Stephen Fry, I'm not very good
0:09:42 > 0:09:44at my Ancient Greeks and Romans.
0:09:44 > 0:09:45Um...
0:09:45 > 0:09:49I have heard of it and I've heard of all those names,
0:09:49 > 0:09:52but I'll just have to take a guess.
0:09:55 > 0:09:56Sophocles.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58You are 100% right.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01- Oh!- 100% right, well done.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02Well done.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04OK, Barry.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06This for the round.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10Who wrote the influential play, A Raisin In The Sun,
0:10:10 > 0:10:14a production of which first appeared on Broadway in 1959,
0:10:14 > 0:10:17earning several Tony award nominations?
0:10:24 > 0:10:27I believe this is by Lorraine Hansberry.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29The correct answer is Lorraine Hansberry.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32Well done, Barry. Good answer, good quizzing.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35Sorry, Dinah, beaten by a very good Egghead today,
0:10:35 > 0:10:38and as a result no place in the final for you.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41But come back to us and we'll see what your team does next.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47So, as it stands, The Farmers Arms have lost another brain.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Any change of strategy now?
0:10:49 > 0:10:53If we had a strategy it would've been helpful!
0:10:53 > 0:10:58OK, well if it was in the pub, would you reformat the team, or...?
0:10:58 > 0:11:01- No.- Press on? - Yeah, press on.- Good, brilliant.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Well, the last team to win were down to one person in the final,
0:11:04 > 0:11:06so it can be done.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09The Eggheads are still sitting there, rather too smugly.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10The next subject is Music.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13So, who's the musician?
0:11:13 > 0:11:14Oh, we haven't got one.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Dave?
0:11:16 > 0:11:18What about you?
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Is Dave doing it?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- Dave, you're doing it? - Dave, you're doing it?
0:11:22 > 0:11:23Looks like it.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Dave against which Egghead,
0:11:25 > 0:11:27and you can have any of the three in the middle here.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30- Judith.- Judith.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32- Judith.- Judith, please.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35You've chosen Judith, good luck, Judith, good luck, Challenger.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Please go to our Question Room.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Dave, would you like to go first, or second?
0:11:40 > 0:11:42I'd like to go first, please.
0:11:45 > 0:11:46Here's your first question.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Which song did the Beatles write
0:11:48 > 0:11:52especially for the 1967 television programme Our World,
0:11:52 > 0:11:56the world's first live television satellite linkup?
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Looking at those, I would go for, I don't know the answer,
0:12:05 > 0:12:08I would go for All You Need Is Love.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Yes, that's completely right. Well done.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Judith, your question.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15The composer Johann Strauss the Elder
0:12:15 > 0:12:16was born in which city?
0:12:20 > 0:12:23He was born in Vienna.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Vienna's right, Judith, well done.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Dave, which singer caused controversy with lyrics about
0:12:30 > 0:12:34Becky with the good hair in a 2016 album release?
0:12:39 > 0:12:402016...
0:12:42 > 0:12:46Again, I don't know, I don't know this one at all.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50I'll go for Lady Gaga.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54Right, Lady Gaga's not the right answer, it's actually Beyonce.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56But what's the controversy about it?
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Lisa, you'll know.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59I think it's something to do with the fact that
0:12:59 > 0:13:02the album's called Lemonade, which which I think is a sort of
0:13:02 > 0:13:04abbreviated version of when life gives you lemons
0:13:04 > 0:13:06and the album is sort of rumoured to be
0:13:06 > 0:13:10about her husband's potential indiscretions.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13So Becky with the good hair may have been the subject of one of those.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16OK, you explain that very delicately, thank you.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Judith, your question, second question.
0:13:19 > 0:13:24No More Heroes was the title of an album and single by which band?
0:13:29 > 0:13:31No idea.
0:13:31 > 0:13:32Um, The Stranglers.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- JEREMY CHUCKLES You're right.- Is it?
0:13:35 > 0:13:36Completely, yeah.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40OK, third question to you, Dave.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42You need to get this one right.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Who wrote the opera Idomeneo?
0:13:45 > 0:13:47Idomeneo.
0:13:51 > 0:13:52I...
0:13:55 > 0:13:57..again don't know.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59I'll go for...
0:14:01 > 0:14:03..Mozart.
0:14:03 > 0:14:04Barry will know, Barry?
0:14:04 > 0:14:06It is. It is Mozart.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Well done, Mozart's correct.
0:14:08 > 0:14:09Well done, Dave.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12OK, Judith.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14You could take the round with this answer.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18Whose first UK number one in the 1960s was
0:14:18 > 0:14:20I Can't Stop Loving You?
0:14:24 > 0:14:26I think that's Ray Charles.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29If you've got this right, you've got three out of three on music,
0:14:29 > 0:14:33and it becomes then a very strong subject for you.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Ray Charles is right, well done, you're in the final round!
0:14:35 > 0:14:38Well done. Sorry, Dave.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41That one wrong answer, the blasted Beyonce.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Judith, you're through,
0:14:43 > 0:14:46come back to us if you can and we will play the next round.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51OK, as it stands, The Farmers Arms have lost three brains
0:14:51 > 0:14:54from the final round, the Eggheads have not lost any so far.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Let's see if you can just dislodge one now.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58That might rock them.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01The next subject is Science.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03- Is that good?- Yes.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Happy with that, yeah.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09OK, retired pathology lab manager, against which Egghead?
0:15:09 > 0:15:13You can have either Chris or Kevin, and they're not stupid.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17I don't know. Kevin, do you fancy taking Kevin out?
0:15:17 > 0:15:21- Kevin.- I heard the phrase, let's take Kevin out.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23- That's the...- Take Kevin out.- OK.
0:15:23 > 0:15:24Where are we going?
0:15:24 > 0:15:25ALL LAUGH LOUDLY
0:15:25 > 0:15:27He's not been out for ages.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32So, Chris, from the Farmers Arms versus Kevin from the Eggheads,
0:15:32 > 0:15:35please go, for the last time, to our Question Room.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Chris, you're on science, which I know is home territory, but beware,
0:15:39 > 0:15:40Kevin is a very good player.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43Would you like to go first, or second on Science, Chris?
0:15:43 > 0:15:45I will go first, please, Jeremy.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Your first science question, Chris, and here it is.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53What is the name of the NASA spacecraft
0:15:53 > 0:15:57which entered Jupiter's orbit in the summer of 2016?
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Now, I think that's Juno.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10OK. You're right, it is, well done.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Kevin, your question.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16The adjective "porcine" refers to which animal?
0:16:18 > 0:16:22Well, as in pork, in a way, it's pig.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24That's it. Pig is right.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27- Probably not the hardest question you'll ever face, but...- No.
0:16:27 > 0:16:28You could have gone wrong there.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31- Could very easily go wrong. - Yeah, exactly.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33OK, back to you, Chris.
0:16:33 > 0:16:38How many laws of motion did Isaac Newton outline
0:16:38 > 0:16:43in his 1687 work Principia Mathematica,
0:16:43 > 0:16:46which translates as mathematical principles?
0:16:49 > 0:16:51Now, that's a physics question,
0:16:51 > 0:16:53and I'm notoriously bad at physics,
0:16:53 > 0:16:55but I think it's three.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59So, Newton's first, second and third laws of motion.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02- That's right.- You're absolutely right, it is three.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05Kevin, which technology company
0:17:05 > 0:17:08bought the messaging service WhatsApp in 2014
0:17:08 > 0:17:11for approximately 20 billion?
0:17:15 > 0:17:19I hate these because a lot of these start-ups that have become
0:17:19 > 0:17:22very successful as apps, or whatever,
0:17:22 > 0:17:26then get bought by one of the giants, and it's always,
0:17:26 > 0:17:29the problem is remembering which one bought which app,
0:17:29 > 0:17:32so all sorts of things like WhatsApp, Instagram, etc.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36I'll rule out,
0:17:36 > 0:17:38for no reason, particularly...
0:17:39 > 0:17:41I'll rule out Google.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46I'll say Microsoft.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49But no confidence whatsoever.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Microsoft, let's see if your team-mates can help.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55- Eggies?- I thought it was Facebook. - So did I.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56Facebook is the answer, Kevin.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59- Facebook.- Yeah.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Now, OK,
0:18:01 > 0:18:03is the tide turning a little bit here?
0:18:03 > 0:18:08Let's treasure this moment, Chris, you're in the lead against Kevin,
0:18:08 > 0:18:10and if you get this question right you're in the final
0:18:10 > 0:18:13and you've knocked out the big man.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14The Green Bank Telescope,
0:18:14 > 0:18:18the world's largest fully steerable radio telescope,
0:18:18 > 0:18:21is located in which US state?
0:18:25 > 0:18:29Now...this is an important answer.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33I don't know.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37But I'm thinking... Firstly, I'm thinking...
0:18:38 > 0:18:42..it should be somewhere high, but that doesn't help.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47It should be, I would have thought, somewhere near the Equator,
0:18:47 > 0:18:50so I'm going to go for Texas.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55Yeah, I can see why you did that, because it's...
0:18:55 > 0:18:59It's a bit clearer, maybe, of vegetation.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01West Virginia is the answer.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Kevin has a way back in now.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Kevin, get this right, we go to Sudden Death.
0:19:06 > 0:19:11Sir Nicholas Bacon was elected president of which society in 2013?
0:19:20 > 0:19:22I don't know Sir Nicholas Bacon, I'm afraid,
0:19:22 > 0:19:26which makes it a one-in-three guess.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30Let's assume that he is a forensic scientist, then,
0:19:30 > 0:19:33it's literally a one-in-three guess, so...
0:19:33 > 0:19:35Do you know, Chris?
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Mmm, interesting.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42The Royal Horticultural Society, there definitely is a society.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45The other two I've never heard of as societies.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47And I think I would have maybe guessed at
0:19:47 > 0:19:49the Interplanetary Society.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51- I think it's the RHS.- Me too.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54We've got a little consensus-building
0:19:54 > 0:19:57- for the Royal Horticultural Society, Kevin.- Oh.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00And that is the correct answer, so we say well done, there, Chris.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04You've taken on Kevin and you've knocked him out,
0:20:04 > 0:20:06that happens once every couple of years,
0:20:06 > 0:20:09Kevin gets knocked out of Science, so really well done, Chris,
0:20:09 > 0:20:12well played and it means you will be joining your team in the final round,
0:20:12 > 0:20:13you won't be down to one player.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Come back to us, we'll play that final round.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19So this is what we have been playing towards,
0:20:19 > 0:20:21it is time for the final round,
0:20:21 > 0:20:23which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:20:25 > 0:20:28won't be allowed to take part in this round, so that is Lesley,
0:20:28 > 0:20:31and Dinah and Dave from The Farmers Arms,
0:20:31 > 0:20:36but also Kevin from the Eggheads, going into the sin bin.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Please leave the studio.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Sue and Chris, you're playing to win The Farmers Arms £2,000.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Barry, Judith, Chris and Lisa,
0:20:44 > 0:20:47you're playing for something that money cannot buy -
0:20:47 > 0:20:49the Eggheads' precious reputation.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54This time the questions are all General Knowledge.
0:20:54 > 0:20:55You are allowed to confer.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57So, Farmers Arms, the question is,
0:20:57 > 0:21:00can your two brains now defeat these four?
0:21:00 > 0:21:02And would you like to go first, or second?
0:21:02 > 0:21:04We'd like to go first, please.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10OK, Sue and Chris, good luck, here's your first question.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14The football team of which constituent country of the UK
0:21:14 > 0:21:20reached the semifinals of the 2016 UEFA European Championship?
0:21:24 > 0:21:26- It's Wales.- It's Wales, isn't it? - I think it's Wales.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28- Cos Gareth Bale was playing.- He was.
0:21:28 > 0:21:32And he's an ex-Spurs player, so Wales, please, Jeremy.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35The Bale connection, Wales is right, well done.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37Eggheads, back to you.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41K Street is a street that is home to a number of lobbying companies
0:21:41 > 0:21:44and think tanks in which American city?
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- Washington.- BARRY:- Lobbyists must be in Washington.
0:21:51 > 0:21:52The streets are letters too.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Well, Chicago, the streets have got names,
0:21:54 > 0:21:56New York, the streets are numbered.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Washington, streets are lettered.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02Yeah, well, New York streets are numbered,
0:22:02 > 0:22:04Chicago streets have names,
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Street with letters are found in Washington, DC.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09So it's Washington, DC.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Very good, or you could have said, it's political and that's...
0:22:11 > 0:22:13- That's where you find all the politicians.- Yeah.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Washington, DC is right. Well done, Washington, DC.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18OK, you're equal on one point.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Second question to the Challengers.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22What did the makers of Cluedo announce
0:22:22 > 0:22:25as the name of its new character in 2016?
0:22:31 > 0:22:34I don't know. Do you?
0:22:34 > 0:22:37I think it's Dr Orchid.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39- Do you?- Mmm.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41- Shall we go for that, then?- Yeah.
0:22:41 > 0:22:42How certain are you?
0:22:44 > 0:22:46- 50-50.- 50-50!
0:22:46 > 0:22:50OK, we're going for Dr Orchid, please, Jeremy.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53OK, Dr Orchid is right.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55- Well done.- Well done, dear.
0:22:55 > 0:22:56Two out of two.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01Eggheads, what was the first name of the American actor who appeared in
0:23:01 > 0:23:03films such as Airplane,
0:23:03 > 0:23:07and who was the father of the actors Beau and Jeff Bridges?
0:23:09 > 0:23:12- It's Lloyd.- Lloyd Bridges. - Lloyd Bridges, yeah.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Yes, Lloyd Bridges, Jeremy.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Lloyd Bridges is right.
0:23:17 > 0:23:202-2. Back to you.
0:23:20 > 0:23:25Which comedian co-wrote the musical, I Can't Sing! The X Factor Musical,
0:23:25 > 0:23:28which ran in London's West End in 2014?
0:23:33 > 0:23:35- Do you know?- No, I don't know.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Have you got any idea?
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Well, it could be any of them, couldn't it?
0:23:39 > 0:23:41Is there any of them we can exclude?
0:23:45 > 0:23:50I think, Jack Dee's not noted for his writing skills, is he?
0:23:52 > 0:23:56I wouldn't know, dear.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Is it the sort of thing Harry Hill would do?
0:23:59 > 0:24:02Yeah, if you force me, as you're going to, force me into an answer,
0:24:02 > 0:24:04I would go for Harry Hill.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Always go with your first instinct.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09That is our rule, always go with your first instinct.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11We'd like to go for Harry Hill, please, Jeremy.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15Always go with your first instinct, a great quizzing rule.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Great husband and wife partnership here, Harry Hill is right.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Well done, dear!
0:24:19 > 0:24:22You've got three out of three, there. That's good!
0:24:23 > 0:24:26£2,000 on the table here.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Eggheads, get this wrong and they've won.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34The use of the word "snob" is first recorded in the 18th-century
0:24:34 > 0:24:36to describe which of the following?
0:24:40 > 0:24:41Shoemaker.
0:24:41 > 0:24:42- Is it?- Yeah.- Why?
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Cos...
0:24:44 > 0:24:46What they call...
0:24:47 > 0:24:49A last used to be known as a snob.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52- Oh, well done.- I thought it came from the old Oxford colleges,
0:24:52 > 0:24:54where they wrote "sine nobility."
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Oh, no, no, no.
0:24:56 > 0:24:57Is that just an apocryphal story?
0:24:57 > 0:25:00That's an apocryphal story. Well, "sine nobilitate" without nobility
0:25:00 > 0:25:03would work, yeah, but actually the word snob comes from
0:25:03 > 0:25:04shoemaker, Jeremy.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09- Shoemaker is right. 3-3. - Good knowledge, Chris.- Yeah.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Chris impresses, doesn't he?
0:25:11 > 0:25:12Old Chris Hughes over there.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14So we go to Sudden Death, gets a bit harder,
0:25:14 > 0:25:16I don't give you different options.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Here's your question.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21In which 2008 film does Liam Neeson's character
0:25:21 > 0:25:24famously declare, "I will find you and I will kill you"?
0:25:24 > 0:25:26I don't know.
0:25:26 > 0:25:292008. "I will find you and I will kill you..."
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Is it a James Bond?
0:25:31 > 0:25:33I don't think so.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35- I don't think it's James Bond. - Is it a Bourne thing?
0:25:37 > 0:25:41No, I've seen the Bourne films, I don't recall it being Bourne.
0:25:41 > 0:25:432008, what happened in 2008?
0:25:43 > 0:25:452008?
0:25:45 > 0:25:49What was the hit film of 2008?
0:25:49 > 0:25:53We need Kevin back here this side with us.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Well, what are we going to go for?
0:25:55 > 0:25:59Pick a film from around that era, and hope for the best...
0:25:59 > 0:26:02- Shall we go for Skyfall, then, if you thought it was a Bond?- Yeah.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04We don't know.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Um...
0:26:06 > 0:26:11Jeremy, um, so we're going to go with a Bond film, which was Skyfall.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13Let's see if the Eggheads know.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15- Taken.- Taken is the film.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17- I hadn't seen it. - I hadn't seen it.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20Eggheads, for the contest.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Which Manhattan street, famous for its theatres,
0:26:22 > 0:26:25is also the location of the Chrysler Building
0:26:25 > 0:26:27and Grand Central Terminal?
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Is it Broadway? It's famous for its theatres.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35- It's not Broadway. - Grand Central's not on Broadway.
0:26:35 > 0:26:39- Isn't it?- No. Chrysler Building's Fifth Avenue, isn't it?
0:26:39 > 0:26:41- That sounds good.- Yeah.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43Third Avenue is where the El used to go up.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46Have you ever seen a theatre on Fifth Avenue, cos I haven't.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48It may be right down the other end.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street.
0:26:50 > 0:26:54I think Broadway goes like this, and 42nd Street goes like that,
0:26:54 > 0:26:56and Grand Central is sort of here,
0:26:56 > 0:26:58so I think technically you could say...
0:26:58 > 0:27:00I didn't know the Chrysler Building was on Broadway,
0:27:00 > 0:27:02- which is what's throwing me.- Mmm.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05- But, er.- You're saying 42nd Street?
0:27:05 > 0:27:0742nd Street, there are theatres, yeah.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Fifth and 42nd.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11So, 42nd Street would make more sense, wouldn't it?
0:27:11 > 0:27:15- Yeah.- I'm inclined for 42nd Street. - And I'm sure Grand Central is there.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17- Shall we go for 42?- Mm-hm.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Yes.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21Well, are you for Fifth Ave?
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Well, I want to know what you think.
0:27:23 > 0:27:24Um...
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Well, I don't know, I'm ducking out.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Right, one abstention, one for Fifth and two for 42nd,
0:27:30 > 0:27:33- so it's 42nd.- Go for it. - 42nd Street, Jeremy.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36That's the first time I've ever seen actually organised collecting of
0:27:36 > 0:27:38votes on your side. Usually...
0:27:38 > 0:27:41Chris doesn't get to do this bit very often.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45Everyone should learn from Chris, because so often in the final round,
0:27:45 > 0:27:47you begin with the idea that you all vote,
0:27:47 > 0:27:49and then it just completely falls apart.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51The answer is, indeed, 42nd Street.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54We say, congratulations, Eggheads, you have won!
0:27:59 > 0:28:02But it was Chris there managing the voting,
0:28:02 > 0:28:03and it was... Who was...?
0:28:03 > 0:28:06Someone was not 42nd Street, Judith abstained.
