0:01:12 > 0:01:14- ALL:- Hello. - Good to see you.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16Did I pronounce the team name correctly there?

0:01:16 > 0:01:17- You did, yes.- T'Villidge Fowk.

0:01:17 > 0:01:19- T'Villidge Fowk.- OK.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Fowk or folk? YORKSHIRE ACCENT: Folk?

0:01:21 > 0:01:24- Folk.- Folk.- Folk.- Right.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Because you are working for the York Sport Village?

0:01:27 > 0:01:29- That's correct, yes. - Which is a leisure place?

0:01:29 > 0:01:31It's a sport and leisure complex, yes.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33Wonderful. So, are you looking forward to this?

0:01:33 > 0:01:36- Very much so. Yes. - And have you done any practising?

0:01:36 > 0:01:38We were doing the app on the way up, so yeah...

0:01:38 > 0:01:40Oh, I've done that, yeah.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42- Is that quite good?- It is.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44When you get beat, they do look very smug.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46LAUGHTER

0:01:46 > 0:01:49Yes, well, that took days of filming.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs

0:01:51 > 0:01:53for our Challengers.

0:01:53 > 0:01:54However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:01:56 > 0:01:58So, T'Villidge Fowk,

0:01:58 > 0:02:01the Eggheads have won the last five games,

0:02:01 > 0:02:03so they're just getting some steam up here

0:02:03 > 0:02:04and you've got to stop them.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06And if you do, you'll win £6,000.

0:02:06 > 0:02:07The first head-to-head battle

0:02:07 > 0:02:10is on Geography, and you can choose from

0:02:10 > 0:02:12Judith, Steve, Kevin, Pat or Dave.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14- That is...you?- Me, yeah.- John?

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Yeah? Yeah. That's John.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19John. Against whom?

0:02:20 > 0:02:23- Judith?- Who looks lost? - Judith, do you reckon?

0:02:23 > 0:02:26- Yeah.- We'll take Judith, please.

0:02:26 > 0:02:27I'm definitely lost.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29LAUGHTER

0:02:29 > 0:02:31So John from T'Villidge Fowk...

0:02:31 > 0:02:33I'm never going to get used to saying that.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Keep me right on it. I've got to give it total conviction.

0:02:36 > 0:02:37..versus Judith, who says she's lost.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39To ensure there's no conferring,

0:02:39 > 0:02:42would you please take your positions in our famous Question Room?

0:02:43 > 0:02:46Judith, how would you pronounce the team name?

0:02:46 > 0:02:47Um...T'Villidge Faulk.

0:02:48 > 0:02:49T'Villidge Folk.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51I don't know.

0:02:51 > 0:02:52You pronounce it, you do it.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54It's definitely a long O.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56T'Villidge Fowk.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58- What?- T'Villidge Fowk.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Folk.- Folk.- Village folk?

0:03:00 > 0:03:02- Village folk. - What about "T'"?

0:03:02 > 0:03:05The "T'" is... T'Villidge Fowk.

0:03:05 > 0:03:06- That's it.- T'Villidge Fowk.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Spot-on, Jeremy. - Knife and spoon and fork.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11- So it's like fork.- One more time, Judith. You've got it now.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13T'Villidge Fowk.

0:03:13 > 0:03:14'Ey up.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16LAUGHTER

0:03:16 > 0:03:18Well, I was going to talk about your skydiving, John,

0:03:18 > 0:03:20but I think Judith has upstaged us.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22How many skydives have you done?

0:03:22 > 0:03:25- Four.- Some of us just wouldn't dream of doing it.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28It seems like unnecessary risk, but for others, it's vital.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30It's a great way of seeing the landing gear

0:03:30 > 0:03:32while the plane is in the air.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35Brilliant. Well, you've jumped out the plane now here on Eggheads.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37You're playing Geography against Judith

0:03:37 > 0:03:39and would you like to go first or second?

0:03:39 > 0:03:40First, please.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45And here is your first question, John. Good luck.

0:03:45 > 0:03:49In which county is the town of Cheltenham?

0:03:52 > 0:03:54OK, so I'm not certain on this.

0:03:56 > 0:04:00But I have heard of an organisation called Cheltenham and Gloucester.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03So I think I'm going to go for Gloucestershire, please.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06Gloucestershire is the right answer. Well done.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08Judith...

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Which dance shares its name

0:04:10 > 0:04:14with the capital of the US State of West Virginia?

0:04:17 > 0:04:20Well, I think that might be Charleston.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22- It is Charleston. - Did you do the Charleston?

0:04:22 > 0:04:24I did do the Charleston on Strictly, yeah,

0:04:24 > 0:04:27and it was the one that I realised that needed the most practice,

0:04:27 > 0:04:30so I was doing it for weeks and weeks in the bathroom, in lifts...

0:04:30 > 0:04:34- Yes.- ..down the high street - very odd behaviour by me.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37Some very odd movement by the feet. OK, John.

0:04:37 > 0:04:43Mount Wellington, or Kunanyi, overlooks which Australian city?

0:04:46 > 0:04:50OK, so...again, I don't know. Um...

0:04:50 > 0:04:53I'm just going to have to go for a pure guess on this.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55I'm going to say...Perth.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Let's see, who's our key Australian here.

0:04:58 > 0:04:59Go on, Eggheads.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03- I think it's Hobart. - Hobart is the answer, John. Sorry.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Judith, to take the lead.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08France's Seine river

0:05:08 > 0:05:11is approximately how many miles long?

0:05:14 > 0:05:17Oh, that's a terrible question.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19At least it's not kilometres.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22It can't be 1,200 miles long.

0:05:22 > 0:05:27That's more than London to John O'Groats.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30I should think it's probably 800 miles long.

0:05:32 > 0:05:33It's not, actually. It's 500.

0:05:33 > 0:05:34Oh, damn it!

0:05:34 > 0:05:36It's a little bit of a let-off there, John.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39You're still level. Get this one right,

0:05:39 > 0:05:42see if you can just push Judith out of the hatch.

0:05:42 > 0:05:46The flag of the Maldives is a red background

0:05:46 > 0:05:51with a green rectangle bearing a white what?

0:05:54 > 0:05:56I'm not doing too well on these Geography questions.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Again, I'm not certain.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Um...I'm going to take another guess

0:06:01 > 0:06:05and go for...crescent.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07- Crescent is right.- Yes!

0:06:07 > 0:06:09Well done.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11Judith...

0:06:11 > 0:06:12To stay in.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Eau Claire and Crescent Heights

0:06:14 > 0:06:17are neighbourhoods in which Canadian city.

0:06:17 > 0:06:21And Eau Claire is E-A-U then C-L-A-I-R-E.

0:06:25 > 0:06:29I was hoping it would say Quebec, because Eau Claire sounds French.

0:06:29 > 0:06:34Well, I think I'll go for what I think is the biggest city

0:06:34 > 0:06:36because why on earth should one know about the others?

0:06:36 > 0:06:39I've really no idea. So I'm going to Ottawa.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43- You're going Ottawa.- Yeah.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45It's Calgary, Judith.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Why should one know that?

0:06:47 > 0:06:49One should know that because one is a quizzer.

0:06:49 > 0:06:50LAUGHTER

0:06:50 > 0:06:52That's not a good enough answer.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54- So, John, well done. - Thank you very much.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56You took on an Egghead.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59We've gone from Eau Claire to "Oh, Judith".

0:06:59 > 0:07:01You've been knocked out, Judith. Sorry.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04John, you're in the final round. Well done, Challengers. Great start.

0:07:04 > 0:07:08Please come back, rejoin your teams and we'll see what happens next.

0:07:09 > 0:07:14Well, thanks to Calgary, T'Villidge Fowk have not lost a brain yet.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16The Eggheads have lost Judith.

0:07:16 > 0:07:17You're still looking cross about it.

0:07:17 > 0:07:20I'm furious. Why should I know the A to Z to Calgary?

0:07:20 > 0:07:23LAUGHTER

0:07:23 > 0:07:25- I mean...- Why are we here?

0:07:25 > 0:07:28The next subject is Politics.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30Now, is this good for you, team?

0:07:30 > 0:07:33We do have a politics student in our midst.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Brilliant. That's what you need.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37- So, Alex...- Will it be me?

0:07:37 > 0:07:38- It is.- Alex, fantastic.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41Because often Politics is the one that draws the gasps.

0:07:41 > 0:07:44So that's brilliant. Alex against which Egghead?

0:07:44 > 0:07:45- It can't be Judith. - Who do you reckon?

0:07:47 > 0:07:49- Do you want to try Steve? - Yeah, go on, then.

0:07:49 > 0:07:50- Steve.- OK, good stuff.

0:07:50 > 0:07:56So Alex from T'Villidge Fowk versus Steve from the Eggheads.

0:07:56 > 0:07:57This team name is killing me!

0:07:59 > 0:08:00Please go to the Question Room now.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04So, Alex, Politics.

0:08:04 > 0:08:05First or second against Steve?

0:08:05 > 0:08:07I think I'll go first.

0:08:11 > 0:08:12And here is your first question.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16In May 2016, who was elected to lead

0:08:16 > 0:08:18the Ukip group in the Welsh Assembly?

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Erm...

0:08:25 > 0:08:28Well, I don't think it was George Galloway.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31Erm...

0:08:31 > 0:08:34I'll go for...

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Neil Hamilton, but I'm not sure.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39Yeah, it is Neil Hamilton, is the answer.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Steve, in the 1950s

0:08:41 > 0:08:47and '60s, the Aldermaston marches were demonstrations against what?

0:08:51 > 0:08:52It's a bit before my time,

0:08:52 > 0:08:54but I'm pretty sure it's nuclear weapons, Jeremy.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Nuclear weapons it was.

0:08:56 > 0:09:00Well done. OK, back to you, Alex.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03What name is given to the directly elected lower branch

0:09:03 > 0:09:05of the Parliament of the Isle of Man?

0:09:10 > 0:09:13I guess, as they're directly elected,

0:09:13 > 0:09:15representatives would make sense.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19I don't think it's the other two,

0:09:19 > 0:09:22so I'm going to go for House of Representatives.

0:09:22 > 0:09:23Steve, do you know this?

0:09:23 > 0:09:25- House of Keys.- House of Keys.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27Got a special name.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29So, Steve has the chance to take the lead.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Who was appointed Secretary of State

0:09:31 > 0:09:35for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs in July 2016?

0:09:39 > 0:09:41I think that was

0:09:41 > 0:09:45Theresa May's opponent in the Conservative leadership clash.

0:09:45 > 0:09:46It's Andrea Leadsom.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Yes, she had a bit of a nightmare, didn't she,

0:09:49 > 0:09:51when she was standing against Theresa May,

0:09:51 > 0:09:53but then she was given a job. Andrea Leadsom is correct.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56So you're in the lead, Steve.

0:09:56 > 0:10:00Alex, you need this one. Which 18th-century political figure

0:10:00 > 0:10:01was nicknamed The Great Commoner

0:10:01 > 0:10:05because of his popularity with the British public?

0:10:09 > 0:10:12I think that was William Pitt, the Elder.

0:10:12 > 0:10:13- You went straight there.- Yeah.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15Was that by elimination or just...?

0:10:15 > 0:10:17- Just I knew that one. - You knew it, great.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19That's a very good reason.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21William Pitt, the Elder is right.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24Well done. So you're level, but Steve can take it with this.

0:10:24 > 0:10:29The US President John F Kennedy was born in which US state?

0:10:33 > 0:10:36Hm. Well, I know he represented Massachusetts in...

0:10:36 > 0:10:39As a senator, so that will have to be my answer, I'm afraid.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42Unless it's a complete red herring, but I'll say Massachusetts.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45It is indeed Massachusetts, Steve. Well done. Sorry,

0:10:45 > 0:10:49that one wrong answer was a bit costly on the Isle of Man, Alex.

0:10:49 > 0:10:52- You've been knocked out.- Oh, well. - Things are level.

0:10:52 > 0:10:55Come back to us and we will see what happens in the next round.

0:10:57 > 0:10:58Getting exciting, isn't it?

0:10:58 > 0:11:01T'Villidge Fowk have lost one brain from the final round.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04The Eggheads have also lost a brain, so it's level.

0:11:04 > 0:11:07Try and take the advantage now with Sport.

0:11:07 > 0:11:08Do you have a Sport person?

0:11:08 > 0:11:10We do indeed and it's this guy

0:11:10 > 0:11:12- to the left of me. - That's me.- Richard?

0:11:12 > 0:11:16- Yeah.- OK. Business manager against which Egghead?

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Got to be one of the three on the left.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Could I try and take on Kevin, please?

0:11:20 > 0:11:22You certainly can.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24Take on the linchpin.

0:11:24 > 0:11:29So Richard from T'Villidge Fowk versus Kevin from the Eggheads.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31Please go to our Question Room now.

0:11:33 > 0:11:34Richard, Sport.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36Would you like to go first or second?

0:11:36 > 0:11:38I'd like to go first, please.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43OK, Sport up against the great Kevin.

0:11:43 > 0:11:44Here is your first question.

0:11:44 > 0:11:49All the athletes from which country were banned from competing

0:11:49 > 0:11:51in the 2016 Paralympic Games?

0:11:54 > 0:11:58I'm pretty sure that's Russia,

0:11:58 > 0:12:00so I'll go for Russia with that one, please.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02Russia is the right answer.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04Well done. Kevin, a player in which

0:12:04 > 0:12:08of these rugby union positions takes part in a scrum?

0:12:11 > 0:12:16Well, a full back does the running and the fly half ditto,

0:12:16 > 0:12:17so it's second row.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Second row is quite right.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21OK. Back to you, Richard.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25Which of these footballers has played over 100 times for England?

0:12:29 > 0:12:32That has to be Wayne Rooney.

0:12:33 > 0:12:34It is indeed Wayne Rooney.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37Well done. So, two out of two. Back to Kevin.

0:12:37 > 0:12:41In 2016, it was confirmed that which of these sports would feature

0:12:41 > 0:12:44at the 2020 Olympic Games?

0:12:48 > 0:12:52Well, the 2020 games in Tokyo, but the one there

0:12:52 > 0:12:54that I think has been included is surfing.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Surfing is the correct answer, Kevin.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01OK, Richard, your question. Get this right,

0:13:01 > 0:13:03put Kevin under some pressure.

0:13:03 > 0:13:07At which Minnesota golf club was the 2016 Ryder Cup held?

0:13:11 > 0:13:16Medinah was a few years ago, which was the miracle of Medinah.

0:13:16 > 0:13:19I think Valhalla was even longer ago,

0:13:19 > 0:13:23so I'm going to have a go at Hazeltine, please.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25Yeah, you're a good quizzer, Richard.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28You got it right. Well done. Hazeltine it is.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Three out of three. Playing well. Kevin.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33The cricketer Rangana Herath

0:13:33 > 0:13:37has taken over 300 Test match wickets for which team?

0:13:41 > 0:13:44Right, well, I don't think I'll divert on this one.

0:13:44 > 0:13:47I thought of one of those before the choices came up,

0:13:47 > 0:13:49so I will say Sri Lanka.

0:13:49 > 0:13:52Sri Lanka is correct. Well done. So three out of three for you both.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54We go to Sudden Death now, Richard.

0:13:54 > 0:13:58It gets a bit harder because these questions are not multiple-choice.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01Serena Williams and which other tennis player

0:14:01 > 0:14:06won their third Olympic women's doubles title in 2012?

0:14:06 > 0:14:09I think that...

0:14:09 > 0:14:13has got to be probably her sister, Venus Williams.

0:14:13 > 0:14:16You are absolutely right. You are tempted to sort of think of all

0:14:16 > 0:14:18the tennis players in the world and actually it was her sister.

0:14:18 > 0:14:19Close to home.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22So, Kevin, you have to get this right.

0:14:22 > 0:14:27Which Premier League football team did Paul Pogba join in 2016

0:14:27 > 0:14:31for a record fee of nearly £90 million?

0:14:31 > 0:14:32Ah.

0:14:34 > 0:14:38I've gone astray here because he was at one time with Man United.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40But who has he gone to now?

0:14:43 > 0:14:44Gone a bit blank, unfortunately.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46Erm...

0:14:48 > 0:14:51I have realised that I don't actually know.

0:14:51 > 0:14:52I should know and I don't.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57I think I'll have to say your lot, Jeremy, Chelsea.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59But I'm not...

0:14:59 > 0:15:02- "Your lot, Chelsea."- I'm not sure. Yeah, sorry about that.- Interesting.

0:15:02 > 0:15:06- Bit of circuitry come undone... - Yeah, it has.- ..in your huge brain.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09I think I've got to let Dave tell you the answer here.

0:15:09 > 0:15:13Manchester United let him go in an argument over wages and then he went

0:15:13 > 0:15:16to Juventus, was quite successful there,

0:15:16 > 0:15:18and then United bought him again.

0:15:18 > 0:15:19- Manchester United. - Manchester United.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21That means the round is yours, Richard.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Well done. Well done. You've knocked out Kevin.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27On Sport and on Manchester United, which will be painful for Dave,

0:15:27 > 0:15:31so maybe you've caused all kinds of trouble in the Eggheads' team.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34Come back to us and we'll play the last round before the final.

0:15:36 > 0:15:40Well, things have taken a turn for T'Villidge Fowk.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Who've... LAUGHTER

0:15:42 > 0:15:44I'm giving it everything here!

0:15:44 > 0:15:49- That was perfect.- They've lost one brain while T'Eggheads have...

0:15:49 > 0:15:50LAUGHTER

0:15:50 > 0:15:53..lost two. And just press the advantage here,

0:15:53 > 0:15:54keep the focus, guys.

0:15:54 > 0:15:56The next subject is Film & TV.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58- Who wants this?- It'll be me. - It's Tasha.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02Brilliant. And you gave a little pat on the desk, Tasha, as if to say,

0:16:02 > 0:16:03this is what we wanted.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Excellent. And you can have either Dave or Pat.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08I'm going to go for Pat.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12Brilliant. Tasha from T'Villidge Fowk versus Pat from the Eggheads

0:16:12 > 0:16:14on Film & TV. You fancy this, Pat?

0:16:14 > 0:16:16I'm happy to answer on Film & TV, yeah.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18OK. There we are.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20To me, he sounds rattled.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22It's taken me years to work out how to read Pat.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24Please go to the Question Room now.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29OK, Tasha. Film & TV, would you like to go first or second?

0:16:29 > 0:16:31I'd like to go second, please.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36So here we go. Pat gets the first question.

0:16:36 > 0:16:41In the film version of the Wizard Of Oz, what type of dog is Toto?

0:16:44 > 0:16:45I think he's a...

0:16:45 > 0:16:49a terrier of some sort, maybe a West Highland.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52He's not the spaniel, he's definitely not a poodle.

0:16:52 > 0:16:53He's a terrier.

0:16:53 > 0:16:54He is a terrier.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Well done. Toto the terrier.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58Over to you now, Tasha.

0:16:58 > 0:17:04Which TV series is based on a series of books by George RR Martin?

0:17:07 > 0:17:13Well, I'm a big fan and I know for a fact that it's Game Of Thrones.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15It is Game Of Thrones. Well done.

0:17:15 > 0:17:20Pat, the '90s TV series The Darling Buds Of May

0:17:20 > 0:17:23was adapted from a series of books by which writer?

0:17:28 > 0:17:33I think people like David Jason and Catherine Zeta Jones

0:17:33 > 0:17:34featured in this,

0:17:34 > 0:17:38and I think it was based on works by HE Bates.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41HE Bates is correct. And Chesterton was Father Brown, was he?

0:17:41 > 0:17:45Yes, Father Brown. And JD Salinger is Catcher In The Rye

0:17:45 > 0:17:47and Franny And Zoe and those sort of things.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49That's right. OK. Thank you.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51So Pat got it right.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Get this one right to stay abreast of him.

0:17:54 > 0:18:00Who directed the 1994 film Muriel's Wedding, starring Toni Collette?

0:18:05 > 0:18:07I can't say I've seen this film.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11It came out the year I was born, so a little bit young.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16For some reason, I don't think it's PJ Hogan.

0:18:16 > 0:18:23I think I'm probably going to go for Mike Figgis.

0:18:23 > 0:18:27But that's really just a vague gut feeling.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29OK, let's check with the Eggs here.

0:18:29 > 0:18:30- Eggheads, do you know?- It's Hogan.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33Hogan is the answer. PJ Hogan.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35So, Pat has the chance to take the round here.

0:18:35 > 0:18:39Third question. In the 2016 film Finding Dory,

0:18:39 > 0:18:45which British actor provides the voice for a sea lion called Rudder?

0:18:45 > 0:18:47This for the round, Pat. Is it...?

0:18:50 > 0:18:54I think I have a memory of reading

0:18:54 > 0:18:58that The Wire stars Idris Elba and Dominic West,

0:18:58 > 0:19:01that their first getting back together

0:19:01 > 0:19:04may have been in Finding Dory as sea lions.

0:19:05 > 0:19:09I think I've got to go on that and go for Dominic West.

0:19:09 > 0:19:10I love the way your brains work.

0:19:10 > 0:19:14You remember an article which said that Idris Elba and Dominic West

0:19:14 > 0:19:16met again after The Wire as sea lions.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19- Yes.- Dominic West is the right answer.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21Sorry, Tasha. He's good, actually.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23So, well done, Pat, you're in the final round.

0:19:23 > 0:19:24Tasha, you've been knocked out.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27It's now level and we're going to play that final round next.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31So this is what we have been playing towards.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33It is time for the final round.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35As always, it is General Knowledge.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed

0:19:38 > 0:19:41to take part in this round. So that's Tasha and Alex

0:19:41 > 0:19:45from T'Villidge Fowk and Kevin and Judith from the Eggheads.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47Would you please now leave the studio?

0:19:49 > 0:19:51Ashley, Richard and John,

0:19:51 > 0:19:54you're playing to win T'Villidge Fowk £6,000.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Dave, Pat and Steve, you're playing for something

0:19:56 > 0:19:59that money can't really buy - the Eggheads' reputation,

0:19:59 > 0:20:02and to continue what is now, I think, officially a roll.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08This time, they're all general knowledge. You can confer, gents.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11So the question is, can you with your three brains

0:20:11 > 0:20:14defeat these three famous ones over here?

0:20:14 > 0:20:17- I'm sure it can be done. And I wish you luck.- Thank you.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20So, Ashley, Richard and John, would you like to go first or second?

0:20:20 > 0:20:21We'll go first.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26OK, General Knowledge. Your first question.

0:20:26 > 0:20:31Which of these refers to the sport that involves being secured

0:20:31 > 0:20:33inside a large transparent ball,

0:20:33 > 0:20:36which is then rolled along the ground

0:20:36 > 0:20:37or down hills?

0:20:37 > 0:20:39Is it...?

0:20:42 > 0:20:44- Zorbing.- I'm pretty sure that's zorbing.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47- That's what I was thinking as well. - Yeah, we all agree zorbing.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49Zorbing is right. I haven't ever done this.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Have you done...? John, you've probably done this.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54I've seen it done, but it unfortunately clashed

0:20:54 > 0:20:57with a different adrenaline-filled activity I was doing.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00OK. Eggheads.

0:21:00 > 0:21:05The saying "gertlush", meaning very good,

0:21:05 > 0:21:09is most associated with people from which British city?

0:21:09 > 0:21:11Don't trust my accent.

0:21:11 > 0:21:15It's spelt G-E-R-T-L-U-S-H.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17Is it...?

0:21:18 > 0:21:21I always thought Newcastle. It's a Geordie Shore thing.

0:21:21 > 0:21:26- Yeah.- I can't see any reason for a Bristol or Hull.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29People from Bristol or Hull, they're not really renowned for

0:21:29 > 0:21:32- their accents.- I think we've got to go Newcastle.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35I thought lush was sort of a Welsh thing, wasn't it?

0:21:35 > 0:21:36Lush. But I don't know.

0:21:36 > 0:21:40- I'm fairly...- OK.- ..happy with Newcastle.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42- What about you, Steve?- It's favourite out of the three for me.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45Newcastle. We're not entirely sure, Jeremy,

0:21:45 > 0:21:48but based on the possibility that Geordie Shore

0:21:48 > 0:21:49has been more prominent,

0:21:49 > 0:21:50we'll go Newcastle, please.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52Newcastle is your answer.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54Gertlush. You're in York, so you can help.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56Have you heard this one?

0:21:56 > 0:22:00I assumed lush was Welsh, so I would have probably chosen Bristol.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03- I'd have gone with that.- Yeah, and the one fact, really,

0:22:03 > 0:22:07that these guys had over here as they snatched at their answer

0:22:07 > 0:22:09was that lush is Welsh, because that came from Pat,

0:22:09 > 0:22:10but somehow Pat was ignored.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12Bristol is the answer.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15It could be a very, very expensive mistake by the Eggheads

0:22:15 > 0:22:18on the first question. My goodness.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20Temperature rising.

0:22:20 > 0:22:22Next question is for T'Villidge Fowk.

0:22:22 > 0:22:25What type of creature is the ibis?

0:22:27 > 0:22:30- It's 100% a bird. Absolutely certain.- Yeah?

0:22:30 > 0:22:33- If you're sure of that, then I'm happy with that.- It's definitely not

0:22:33 > 0:22:35- any of the others. No, it's definitely a bird.- Right.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38I wouldn't disagree with John on that one. It's a bird.

0:22:38 > 0:22:42- Bird is the right answer. Well done. - Thank you.- Well done.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44All you have to do is get your next question right

0:22:44 > 0:22:46and you've won £6,000.

0:22:46 > 0:22:48If you do that, there is nothing they can do about it.

0:22:48 > 0:22:52All right, Eggheads. See if you can get off the blocks here.

0:22:52 > 0:22:53If you get this wrong, it's over.

0:22:53 > 0:22:58What nickname is given to a form of computer malware that can be

0:22:58 > 0:23:00downloaded to a user's device

0:23:00 > 0:23:05without warning simply by the user visiting a compromised website?

0:23:09 > 0:23:11- Drain-train doesn't sound right. - Drive-by

0:23:11 > 0:23:16has the echo of a drive-by shooting, so it's just extreme bad luck

0:23:16 > 0:23:22that you've stumbled across misfortune just by circumstance.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Yeah, I can't say I've ever heard of it.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26- No.- Drive-by sounds plausible.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28There is sort of a story behind that

0:23:28 > 0:23:31- that would make some sort of sense. - Yeah.- Yeah.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34- Yep, we'll go for drive-by. - Go for it. Yeah.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36Again, we're not sure of this,

0:23:36 > 0:23:40- but we're going to go for drive-by, please, Jeremy.- OK.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43- If you've got it wrong, the contest is over.- Mm-hm.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47- Drive-by is the right answer. - Well done.

0:23:47 > 0:23:51Saved it. So they have got a point and beware here,

0:23:51 > 0:23:53because you let them back in,

0:23:53 > 0:23:55they're going to be hungry for a win.

0:23:55 > 0:23:56If you get this right,

0:23:56 > 0:24:01you've won £6,000 and they don't get another look in.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03Smith sewing,

0:24:03 > 0:24:09Moffett sewing and McCain sewing are methods used in making which items?

0:24:17 > 0:24:19I know books as being binding.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21You bind books.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23I'd discount books.

0:24:25 > 0:24:26Between the other two...

0:24:28 > 0:24:31I'm trying to think of what sort of way you would use

0:24:31 > 0:24:34different types of sewing and...

0:24:36 > 0:24:38..on that logic, there seems to be more opportunity with sails

0:24:38 > 0:24:42than there does to be with saddles, but I don't know.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44You'd expect so. Saddle.

0:24:44 > 0:24:49Yeah, I don't really have an inkling either way.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52- There must be hundreds of types of sails.- Yeah.

0:24:52 > 0:24:56Different types of the yacht, different forms of sail.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00Shall we take a joint decision on yacht?

0:25:00 > 0:25:02I'm happy with that. I don't really know.

0:25:02 > 0:25:04I'm sorry if it's wrong. I'm really sorry if it's wrong.

0:25:04 > 0:25:08I think... We definitely don't know the answer, but I think...

0:25:09 > 0:25:12..through majority decision we're going to choose yacht sails.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16If you had got this right, you would have £6,000,

0:25:16 > 0:25:18but I'm afraid it is books.

0:25:18 > 0:25:23- Wow.- OK, so the situation is this - the Eggheads have one, you have two,

0:25:23 > 0:25:26you had the money coming closer to you there, but don't worry.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28You've not lost by any manner of means.

0:25:28 > 0:25:32In fact, if they get this one wrong, you've won the contest anyway.

0:25:32 > 0:25:38So let's see. Chalcis, Eggheads, is the capital of which Greek island?

0:25:38 > 0:25:41Spelt C-H-A-L-C-I-S.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48Anybody know?

0:25:48 > 0:25:51- No, I'm afraid.- Well, Ithaca is Odysseus, ain't it?

0:25:51 > 0:25:53Yeah.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56- Euboea is, what? The second biggest Greek island.- Yeah.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58Paros I don't know much about at all.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01Does Chalcis come up in mythology?

0:26:01 > 0:26:02- It's classical, ain't it?- Right.

0:26:02 > 0:26:05- So...- Of those three islands...

0:26:05 > 0:26:08Is that where Clashing Rocks are?

0:26:08 > 0:26:12You know in Jason And The Argonauts, they go in through past there

0:26:12 > 0:26:14and that's Chalcis, I'm sure it is.

0:26:14 > 0:26:18- Or perhaps I'm just talking rubbish. - No. No, no.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21Well, who came from...? Didn't Odysseus come from Ithaca?

0:26:21 > 0:26:25- That's what I'm saying.- It's possibly slightly higher profile

0:26:25 > 0:26:28- in mythology than the other two. - I mean, it will be the biggest,

0:26:28 > 0:26:31so you imagine that probably would have the capital,

0:26:31 > 0:26:33but you can give the capital to anything, really.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35Yeah, they can all have capitals.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37Playing on my own, I'd probably go Ithaca,

0:26:37 > 0:26:42- but that's...- Well, that's one thing to hang on.

0:26:42 > 0:26:43What about you, Pat?

0:26:43 > 0:26:45We don't know what the capitals of these islands are,

0:26:45 > 0:26:47so at the very tenuous...

0:26:47 > 0:26:50- Ithaca?- Ithaca is perhaps the best we have.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53- Yeah. Are we all...?- If it's wrong, I'm sorry.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56We're going to just talk ourselves out of it, aren't we?

0:26:56 > 0:27:00Again, we do not really know,

0:27:00 > 0:27:06but the consensus is going Ithaca, please, Jeremy.

0:27:06 > 0:27:07OK, you've said Ithaca.

0:27:07 > 0:27:11- If you've got it wrong, they've won the jackpot.- Yes.

0:27:11 > 0:27:12Can I check backstage?

0:27:12 > 0:27:15Is that too painful for you to see whether Kevin and Judith know?

0:27:15 > 0:27:16Kevin? Judith?

0:27:16 > 0:27:18The one from the Golden Fleece legend

0:27:18 > 0:27:20is a different place altogether.

0:27:20 > 0:27:22That's over at the far end of the Black Sea.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25- That's my logic gone.- So it's not the same Chalcis.

0:27:25 > 0:27:29- OK, there's two Chalcises? - Yeah.- Right.

0:27:30 > 0:27:32The answer is Euboea.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36So we say congratulations, Challengers! You have won!

0:27:38 > 0:27:40Well...

0:27:40 > 0:27:43rarely, rarely do we see - no disrespect, Eggs -

0:27:43 > 0:27:46but you only scoring one out of three in the final round.

0:27:46 > 0:27:47My goodness. And that's it.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Bang, you're gone.

0:27:49 > 0:27:50- Well done.- Well played.

0:27:50 > 0:27:52- Thank you very much. - Very well played.

0:27:52 > 0:27:55That was scarier than one of your skydives, John.

0:27:55 > 0:27:59- Yeah.- I thought, with the saddles and the sails,

0:27:59 > 0:28:01I thought you'd gone, but not so.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03- Really well done.- They were tough questions.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05- They were very tough. - Yes, some tough ones.

0:28:05 > 0:28:07I'm really glad we went first.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09Well, really well done.

0:28:09 > 0:28:10I hope you've enjoyed the day.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13- Definitely.- Thank you very much. - With the win is good, but I hope

0:28:13 > 0:28:14you've enjoyed the rest of it as well.

0:28:14 > 0:28:18Congratulations. And I love the T'Villidge Fowk name.

0:28:18 > 0:28:19You've just won £6,000.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22So you can go back and say to all your colleagues,

0:28:22 > 0:28:24you are officially cleverer than the Eggheads.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27A bit of an enquiry going on here already.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29You proved they can be beaten.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32Do join us next time on Eggheads to see if a new team

0:28:32 > 0:28:34with a different name will be just as successful.

0:28:34 > 0:28:38Until then, we really enjoyed today. Goodbye.
