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 > 0:00:14arguably 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
0:00:26 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Eggs, are we hard-boiled today?
0:00:34 > 0:00:35- Scrambled.- Sunny side up.
0:00:35 > 0:00:39Scrambled, sunny side up, a whole load of different...egg attitudes.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Well, taking on our quiz champions today
0:00:41 > 0:00:44are the Arrgheads. Now this team are all members
0:00:44 > 0:00:46of the Auld Reekie Roller Girls,
0:00:46 > 0:00:50a roller derby team in Edinburgh. Let's meet them.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Hello, I'm Lisa. I'm a disability employment adviser.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hello, I'm Mairi, I'm a clinical hypnotherapist.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hello, I'm Jean, and I'm a software developer.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Suzanne, I'm an international education manager.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Hello, I'm Tink. I'm a parasite biologist.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11So Lisa, and team, welcome. Great to see you.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13And normally you would have your skates on, right?
0:01:13 > 0:01:16Yeah, and all our pads, there's a bit more protection than we have today!
0:01:16 > 0:01:18And tell us about
0:01:18 > 0:01:21the actual sport and what you do when you're kitted up like that.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25It's a full contact sport, you play on quad roller skates.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28It's a bit like rugby on roller skates, that's how a lot of people describe it,
0:01:28 > 0:01:31but with the tactical side of chess.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33And so there is a ball, or a puck, or something?
0:01:33 > 0:01:37No, we use each other as the ball, if you like.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40You score points by getting past other people. So...
0:01:40 > 0:01:42And we try to stop that happening by hitting folk out of the way.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Oh, brilliant. So it's just a gigantic ruck, basically.
0:01:45 > 0:01:46Yeah, a little bit, yeah.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48So, do you play in different positions?
0:01:48 > 0:01:51Yeah - most of us play as blockers,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54or you can play as a jammer, which is a points-scoring person,
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Blockers are the ones that hit everybody else out of the way.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00And Auld Reekie is a place near Edinburgh, is it?
0:02:00 > 0:02:02It's just an old nickname, really, for Edinburgh.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04It's what Edinburgh used to be known as, Auld Reekie.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Good stuff. And you all do other things which we can talk about as we go,
0:02:07 > 0:02:09- but good luck. - Thank you.- Good luck to you.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash
0:02:11 > 0:02:13up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, that prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20So, Arrgheads, in recent history the Eggs had a bit of trouble,
0:02:20 > 0:02:22and they then sort of gathered themselves
0:02:22 > 0:02:25and they're now charging, they're really going at full tilt -
0:02:25 > 0:02:27they've won the last five.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29- Oh! - So they're feeling a bit confident,
0:02:29 > 0:02:32- and that means there's £6,000 for you if you win today.- OK!
0:02:32 > 0:02:34OK? Want to get cracking?
0:02:34 > 0:02:36- ALL:- Yeah.- All right, skates on.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Geography.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43You can have Judith or Dave, Kevin, Barry, or Lisa.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45- OK, so we're going Sue? - Yeah, that's me.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46That'll be Sue.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48This sounds organised here.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50- You've got a plan, I can tell. - We have.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54All right. So Suzanne is first out of the dugout.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Which Egghead? Any one of the five.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58- What do you think?- It's your choice.
0:02:58 > 0:02:59Judith?
0:02:59 > 0:03:03So, Suzanne from the Arrgheads versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Please go to our very famous Question Room now.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09Suzanne. Would you like to go first or second?
0:03:09 > 0:03:10I'll go first, please.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16OK, so here is your question. Good luck.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Which is the smallest country on mainland Africa?
0:03:22 > 0:03:23OK.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26I don't think that's Egypt...
0:03:28 > 0:03:30I'm going to go with Chad.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Do you know,
0:03:32 > 0:03:35you've travelled in Africa, so have I - I might have even gone Chad,
0:03:35 > 0:03:36it sounds like it's the smallest.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38- Oh, no...- It's Gambia.
0:03:38 > 0:03:39Oh...
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Judith, your question.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45The River Liffey flows through which capital city?
0:03:47 > 0:03:51It throws - flows, sorry, can't speak -
0:03:51 > 0:03:52through Dublin.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Dublin is the right answer.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Suzanne, I know you're well- travelled
0:03:57 > 0:03:58cos I can see you've been...what,
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Vietnam, Cambodia, Czech Republic? Everywhere.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Yeah. So I used to live in all of those countries,
0:04:04 > 0:04:07I used to teach English language overseas,
0:04:07 > 0:04:11and now I work in international education, welcoming students to the UK.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Oh, how brilliant.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14OK, this is more local.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16What is Kintyre, in Scotland?
0:04:21 > 0:04:25Mmm... Well, I'm familiar with MULL Of Kintyre.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28I'm going to say it's a peninsula.
0:04:28 > 0:04:29Yeah, you've got it, absolutely right.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32A peninsula.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34OK, Judith, your question now,
0:04:34 > 0:04:35to take the lead.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Which of these countries has the highest average temperature?
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Oh, that's interesting. Erm...
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Well, you always think of Norway and Switzerland
0:04:47 > 0:04:50as being covered in snow and freezing cold...
0:04:51 > 0:04:55..but Japan is also quite snowy and cold,
0:04:55 > 0:04:56and has high mountains.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00On the other hand it sort of stretches further south, I think, as well.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03So that might average out the temperatures. Erm...
0:05:03 > 0:05:06So I think I'm going to say Japan.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Yes, you trod very carefully there...
0:05:08 > 0:05:10But you ARE right, it is Japan.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Suzanne, you need to get this one right.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18The Red Fort is a Unesco World Heritage Site
0:05:18 > 0:05:20in which of these Asian cities?
0:05:24 > 0:05:26This is something I think I SHOULD know...
0:05:26 > 0:05:29but I don't.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Red is considered a lucky colour in China,
0:05:31 > 0:05:35so I wonder if it might be...Beijing.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37I'll go for Beijing.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Beijing is your answer. Judith, is it?
0:05:40 > 0:05:41No, it's Delhi.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43- No...- It's Delhi, Suzanne.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46I'm sorry, no way back after two wrong answers.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50So Judith will be in the final, she's come through on Geography there.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53And if you return to us, both of you, rejoin your teams, we'll play on.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Right, the Arrgheads have lost a brain from the final round,
0:05:57 > 0:06:01the Eggheads have not lost any thanks to Judith winning on Geography there,
0:06:01 > 0:06:03and we play on with Music.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05So who wants this, Lisa?
0:06:05 > 0:06:06- That's me!- Oh, great. OK.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08The captain goes in.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Against which Egghead? You can have anyone but Judith.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13I would like to take on Lisa, please.
0:06:13 > 0:06:17Brilliant. So Lisa does a very mean version of The Final Countdown,
0:06:17 > 0:06:19don't you, but I won't ask you for it now...
0:06:19 > 0:06:22- And many other songs. - And many other songs.- None of which are commercially available!
0:06:22 > 0:06:24We've got two Lisas here, how am I going to deal with it(?)
0:06:24 > 0:06:27Lisa from the Arrgheads, Lisa from the Eggheads.
0:06:27 > 0:06:28Not helping, is it?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30You're wearing different coloured tops,
0:06:30 > 0:06:33that's how I'm going to work it out. OK, please go to our Question Room now.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38So Lisa, tell us what you do when you're not roller derbying.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42I'm an employment adviser for people with additional support needs.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44- OK.- Yeah.- And a mum as well?
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Yes, I have an 11-year-old and a two-year-old.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Well, you can give Other Lisa some tips!
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Lisa, you're just starting on that journey.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- I'm on the cusp of having to deal with two children, yes. - JEREMY CHUCKLES
0:06:55 > 0:06:57And I gather
0:06:57 > 0:07:00music helps you through the day, Lisa the Arrghead. You love your music.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Yeah, I listen to a lot of music, I hope it's going to help with this!
0:07:03 > 0:07:07- All right. Would you like to go first or second? - I'd like to go first, please.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Here we go. Which of these musicians
0:07:12 > 0:07:14was the lead singer of The Clash?
0:07:19 > 0:07:20OK...
0:07:20 > 0:07:25So, I'm pretty sure the answer is John Lydon.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Let's just see from your team-mates here. Team-mates...?
0:07:27 > 0:07:31- It's Joe Strummer.- His other name, John Lydon, was Johnny Rotten.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33So he was the Pistols.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36Ramone was the Ramones, and Strummer was The Clash,
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- Joe Strummer is the answer.- OK.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40OK, Lisa. Lisa Egghead.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44Which hymn is traditionally sung each year before the FA Cup final?
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Yes, your typical footballers, they go with the worst tune of the lot,
0:07:52 > 0:07:53it's Abide With Me.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55JEREMY LAUGHS
0:07:55 > 0:07:57I quite like that. What, you think it grinds out a bit?
0:07:57 > 0:08:00I just don't like it as much as the other two. It's personal preference.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02It would be a bit odd to have 22 grown men
0:08:02 > 0:08:03singing Lord of The Dance...
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- Oh, it'd be class!- It would be class as well, you're right.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Abide With Me is the right answer from our Egghead.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11So back to our Challenger Lisa.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Which of these stage musicals
0:08:13 > 0:08:16was performed first?
0:08:20 > 0:08:22OK...
0:08:22 > 0:08:24I'm not massive on musicals, but I'm going to rule out The Lion King
0:08:24 > 0:08:27cos I think that's probably too new.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30Erm...
0:08:30 > 0:08:33West Side Story is Shakespearean, so...
0:08:33 > 0:08:36or based on, so that's probably...
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Well, an adaptation's probably older, so I'm going to go Cabaret.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Oh, you lost confidence, you talked yourself out of the answer!
0:08:42 > 0:08:45It's West Side Story.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Back to Lisa the Egghead.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Which Guns N' Roses song, Lisa, begins with the lines
0:08:51 > 0:08:54"She's got a smile that it seems to me
0:08:54 > 0:08:56"reminds me of childhood memories,
0:08:56 > 0:09:00"where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky"?
0:09:04 > 0:09:07So welcome to the Jungle is "Welcome to the jungle,
0:09:07 > 0:09:08"we've got fun and games".
0:09:08 > 0:09:12Paradise City is, "Take me down to the paradise city".
0:09:12 > 0:09:13So yeah, it's Sweet Child o' Mine.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Lisa, you're nodding.
0:09:16 > 0:09:20Yeah, I knew that before it came up, yeah.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22I'm thinking I won't ask you to sing it, Lisa...
0:09:22 > 0:09:26Probably safer. You'll get the Sheryl Crow version, which wasn't very good.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- It's more famous for the guitar riff at the start, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Sweet Child o' Mine is quite right.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33So, Lisa, sorry, our Challenger,
0:09:33 > 0:09:35you've been knocked out. But you can still mastermind things
0:09:35 > 0:09:37- as the team captain. OK?- OK.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40And you've got plenty of power in the tank, I know.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43So come back to us, both of you, and we'll see what happens in the next round.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48So, the Arrgheads have lost two brains from the final round -
0:09:48 > 0:09:52it's not a crisis yet, but if we were playing roller derby, I reckon you could bundle them now.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Can we switch, can we do that(?)
0:09:54 > 0:09:57THEY LAUGH Believe me, they would run a mile!
0:09:57 > 0:10:00The Eggheads have not lost a brain so far -
0:10:00 > 0:10:02I stress "so far". And now we've got Arts & Books.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04Who would like this?
0:10:04 > 0:10:07- It's between you two...- It's going to have to be Mairi, I think.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09OK, it's Mairi.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Mairi, OK.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13And, you can have, Mairi,
0:10:13 > 0:10:15any of the three gentlemen in the middle.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18- What do you say, Captain? - Mairi and Barry.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22- Mairi and Barry! Match made in heaven.- You're really making things easy for me today.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25All right. So Mairi from the Arrgheads
0:10:25 > 0:10:28plays Barry from the Eggheads. It IS like a poem, isn't it?
0:10:28 > 0:10:31To ensure there's no conferring, please go to the Question Room.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Well, Mairi, the first thing to say is that
0:10:33 > 0:10:35I'm glad I pronounced your name right.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37- Yes. You'd get a row from my mum if you didn't. - HE CHUCKLES
0:10:37 > 0:10:40So tell us about being a clinical hypnotherapist.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Oh, it's great fun, you get to meet all sorts of people,
0:10:44 > 0:10:46and I really like working with children.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48You can use their imagination
0:10:48 > 0:10:52and really get into their world, and help them with all sorts of problems.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55So it's about giving up smoking, and anxiety...
0:10:55 > 0:10:58- Not the children!- No, yeah, if they're smoking at eight,
0:10:58 > 0:10:59that WOULD be a problem. Yeah.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03Yeah, all sorts of things. Phobia, anxiety... You know.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Barry, you got any phobias? I don't think you have, have you?
0:11:06 > 0:11:07Er, yes, I do.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- Go on.- I'm actually terrified of moths.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Are you? I've got a thing about moths as well.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16Whenever there's a moth in my room, my wife has to deal with it.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19We have a rule in the house - anything larger I deal with,
0:11:19 > 0:11:24so mice, snakes, rats, anything like that, birds, no problem at all.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Anything small, my wife deals with.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28JEREMY LAUGHS
0:11:28 > 0:11:31So coincidentally, Mairi, we've both got a bit of a moth thing.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Cos there were a lot of moths in my house when I was a child
0:11:33 > 0:11:37- and they used to land on my face in the night.- Ooh...- Could you cure us?
0:11:37 > 0:11:41- Yeah, well, I'll just see you in the green room afterwards. - Fine.- Mates' rates.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44- We may be making an appointment! - We'll have a queue.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45Our moth therapy session!
0:11:45 > 0:11:49OK, Arts & Books. I hope we don't open an old book and a moth flies out.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Would you like to go first or second, Mairi?
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Erm... I'll mix it up and go second, please.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59OK. So first question to Barry.
0:11:59 > 0:12:04Desdemona is the wife of which Shakespearean title character?
0:12:08 > 0:12:13Desdemona was unfairly accused of adultery,
0:12:13 > 0:12:16and she was strangled by her husband Othello.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Othello is the right answer.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Mairi, here's your first question.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23Which of these novels was written by William Golding?
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Thankfully, I DO know this,
0:12:30 > 0:12:31erm...
0:12:31 > 0:12:34My daughter's got Swallows And Amazons on her shelf at the moment,
0:12:34 > 0:12:36next to read,
0:12:36 > 0:12:39but I think it is Lord Of The Flies.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41It is indeed Lord Of The Flies,
0:12:41 > 0:12:43with the tale of the conch and all that.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Barry, your question.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48A werewolf named Remus Lupin
0:12:48 > 0:12:51appears in which series of books?
0:12:55 > 0:12:59I believe I have seen the film in which Remus Lupin is in
0:12:59 > 0:13:02and I'm sure he was in a Harry Potter.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05There's no end of quiz-related questions from Harry Potter.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07Harry Potter's the right answer.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09How are you on your Harry Potter, Mairi?
0:13:09 > 0:13:12- Massive fan. Yeah. - Oh, you would have got that?
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Here is your next question.
0:13:14 > 0:13:19In which country was the poet Robert Frost born, in 1874?
0:13:22 > 0:13:24OK...
0:13:24 > 0:13:28Erm, I'm really hoping this isn't a trick question,
0:13:28 > 0:13:30and I think it is the USA.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Yeah, you're playing well. USA's right. Well done.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35The team can go crazy, that's fine.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37- Come on, Mairi!- You can clap. They're liking this.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39So two out of two...
0:13:39 > 0:13:41you've drawn level with Barry, that's good.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Barry's third question.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Which of these writers was only 4'6" tall?
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Er...Alexander Pope, I believe,
0:13:53 > 0:13:55was known as the Wasp of Twickenham,
0:13:55 > 0:13:58which I think might have been some reference to his height
0:13:58 > 0:14:01but I'm pretty certain Alexander Pope was only 4'6" tall.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Alexander Pope is the right answer.
0:14:04 > 0:14:05I didn't know that. Very interesting.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07OK.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09So he's got slight advantage here
0:14:09 > 0:14:12cos you let him go first, Mairi. But don't be put off,
0:14:12 > 0:14:14just get this one right, and you'll take him to Sudden Death.
0:14:14 > 0:14:20Work No. 227: The lights going on and off,
0:14:20 > 0:14:22which consists of an empty room
0:14:22 > 0:14:25which is filled with light for five seconds
0:14:25 > 0:14:28and then plunged into darkness for five seconds,
0:14:28 > 0:14:32is a Turner Prize-winning work by which artist?
0:14:36 > 0:14:38You couldn't have asked me about Damien Hirst
0:14:38 > 0:14:40and a shark in formaldehyde
0:14:40 > 0:14:43or cow in formaldehyde or anything(?)
0:14:43 > 0:14:44OK. Erm...
0:14:44 > 0:14:46SHE EXHALES
0:14:46 > 0:14:52I think I'm going to take a bit of a guess, and say Steve McQueen.
0:14:52 > 0:14:53Barry, is she right?
0:14:53 > 0:14:56- I'm afraid she's not, I believe it was Martin Creed.- Oh, no!
0:14:56 > 0:14:58- Martin Creed is the answer.- Oh...
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Just at the end there
0:15:00 > 0:15:02you've been knocked out, Mairi, sorry.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05- OK.- On a light going on and off.
0:15:05 > 0:15:06SHE SIGHS
0:15:06 > 0:15:09Oh, how irritating, I thought you were going to overwhelm him there.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12You were beaten by our Egghead, though - Barry will be in the final,
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Mairi, you're out. Please rejoin your teams,
0:15:14 > 0:15:17and we'll play the last round before the final.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19OK, as it stands
0:15:19 > 0:15:22the Arrgheads have lost three brains from the final round.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24The Eggheads haven't lost any,
0:15:24 > 0:15:27but Barry and I have both declared our moth phobia, or "mottephobia" as it's known.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30- We will see moths everywhere now! - We will.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34Now, let's see if you can get one round back, that would be really handy.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Last one now before the final is Film & TV.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39..That's OK.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41- It's going to be Jean. - That'll be me.- All right,
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Jean, our software developer.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Against which Egghead? And you can have either Kevin or Dave.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48What do you guys think about Dave?
0:15:48 > 0:15:50- Yeah.- Dave, please.
0:15:50 > 0:15:55Very good. Jean from the Arrgheads versus Dave from the Eggheads.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58And to ensure there's no conferring, please go to the Question Room.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00So apart from roller derby,
0:16:00 > 0:16:02cooking is your thing, Jean?
0:16:02 > 0:16:07Absolutely, yes. I always say that my biggest hobby is probably eating.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10And what kind of dish is your... What's your signature dish?
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Erm... Probably Indian food,
0:16:12 > 0:16:15so I think... Like, my chicken jalfrezi gets VERY good reviews.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17And is that very hot?
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Er... No, no, I always make a kind of medium.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22- Do you?- Yeah. So you get the flavours through.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25Yeah... I don't know, Dave, do you go for super hot?
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Er... Madras hot. Medium. Medium heat.
0:16:28 > 0:16:29I've got a thing about heat.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Have you ever had a phall, Dave?
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Yes, I have, yeah.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Did you have er... insurance for that?
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Well, no. Erm...
0:16:37 > 0:16:41- It's the hottest one, isn't it?- I'm not going to be too rude or graphic about it, but er...
0:16:41 > 0:16:43it was a tough night, that one.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45THEY LAUGH
0:16:45 > 0:16:48Again, I'm not going to er...
0:16:48 > 0:16:50elaborate.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54I think possibly, Jean, Dave and I are sort of hot curry people
0:16:54 > 0:16:56but I always order jalfrezi, actually,
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- it is a beautiful dish, isn't it? - It really, really is.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01All right, well, Film & TV is your subject here, Jean,
0:17:01 > 0:17:03would you like to go first or second?
0:17:03 > 0:17:04I'll go first, please.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Here's your first question, Jean.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14Who plays the role of Kathy in the TV drama series EastEnders?
0:17:19 > 0:17:23So, I'm really not a soap person, unfortunately.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28So, I'm going to go for Laurie Brett.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Team-mates, you know. Do you know?
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Yeah, we all know.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35- You watch EastEnders, do you?- I've actually never watched EastEnders,
0:17:35 > 0:17:38but I know that fact, somehow.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Cos she feels like she goes back to the '80s, almost.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44- Yeah.- Let's ask Judith, cos Judith loves EastEnders. Judith?
0:17:44 > 0:17:47It's Gillian Taylforth.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49She came back. I mean, she went out, did she come back in lately?
0:17:49 > 0:17:53Yes, she did, yeah. Gillian Taylforth is the answer, Jean,
0:17:53 > 0:17:56I'm sorry. She took some time out and then she returned.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Quite dramatic.
0:17:58 > 0:18:02Dave, Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig,
0:18:02 > 0:18:06Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones all starred in which 2016 film?
0:18:11 > 0:18:13I think it's Ghostbusters.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15It was female-dominated, wasn't it?
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Yes, it was, yeah. It was a reboot.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Ghostbusters is right.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20OK, Jean, time to strike back.
0:18:20 > 0:18:26In which Alfred Hitchcock film does Kim Novak play the roles
0:18:26 > 0:18:30of both Madeleine Elster and Judy Barton?
0:18:35 > 0:18:38Again, this is not my strong point
0:18:38 > 0:18:40and I haven't actually seen these movies.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45I'm going to go with Marnie.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48I love Hitchcock, but I might have struggled with this myself.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51The answer is Vertigo.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- OK.- But she...
0:18:54 > 0:18:57What I remember about Vertigo is the Salvador Dali graphic scenes,
0:18:57 > 0:18:58is that right?
0:18:58 > 0:19:00That was an earlier one.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03Oh, that was Spellbound.
0:19:03 > 0:19:04Yes, Spellbound.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07So, why did she play two roles in Vertigo?
0:19:07 > 0:19:10Because James Stewart is a detective who becomes...
0:19:10 > 0:19:14He's following a woman who he becomes obsessed with.
0:19:14 > 0:19:19She dies, and then he meets another woman, also played by Kim Novak,
0:19:19 > 0:19:21who looks quite different to begin with,
0:19:21 > 0:19:26but he basically wants her to become the one who's dead.
0:19:26 > 0:19:31So he gets her to recreate her appearance.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33It's extremely psychological.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- Yeah.- It often tops critics' polls of best films
0:19:37 > 0:19:39or best Hitchcock film.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41It's a strange film, in a lot of respects,
0:19:41 > 0:19:44- and not to everybody's taste, by any means.- Yeah.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46In San Francisco, was it filmed?
0:19:46 > 0:19:49- Yeah.- Yeah. So, Vertigo is the answer, Jean.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51We go to Dave, he can take it on this question.
0:19:51 > 0:19:56The Oscar-winning 2015 film The Big Short was set in which industry?
0:20:00 > 0:20:02I'm not sure.
0:20:02 > 0:20:03Erm...
0:20:03 > 0:20:06The Big Short.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10I'm going to go fashion, but I'm not sure at all.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12OK, I thought you'd go straight there.
0:20:12 > 0:20:13Do you know this, Jean?
0:20:13 > 0:20:15I do, yes, it's banking.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18It's banking, Dave. Because "short", as in shorting money.
0:20:18 > 0:20:19Yes, I didn't think.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21I was confusing it with another film.
0:20:21 > 0:20:25So, that's handy, Jean, but you've still got to get this one right.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Here's your question. Which of these comedy series
0:20:28 > 0:20:32was written by Rob Delaney and Sharon Horgan?
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Erm, I haven't actually seen these.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Erm...
0:20:39 > 0:20:42I'm going to go for Fleabag.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44OK, team-mates, you know?
0:20:44 > 0:20:45Yes, it's Catastrophe.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Catastrophe is the answer.
0:20:47 > 0:20:51I've got some idea that it's about a marriage breaking up
0:20:51 > 0:20:53or something, is it? Or it's an American couple?
0:20:53 > 0:20:56- Big fan, here.- Yeah, it's not really a marriage breaking up.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59It's about a couple who are, sort of, thrown together quite early on
0:20:59 > 0:21:01with a lot of responsibility.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- Right.- And they're quite disastrous.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05OK. Is it good, is it worth watching?
0:21:05 > 0:21:07Yeah, it's hilarious. It's brilliant.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10Catastrophe is the answer, Jean, sorry. So, Dave has knocked you out.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13And that's a run of Eggheads victories, but, in mitigation,
0:21:13 > 0:21:15they are playing very well at the moment,
0:21:15 > 0:21:17and you're certainly not out of it yet.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19So, Jean and Dave, come back and we'll play the final.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23So, this is what we have been playing towards.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25It is time for our final round.
0:21:25 > 0:21:26As always, General Knowledge.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29But, I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:21:29 > 0:21:32won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:21:32 > 0:21:37So, that's Lisa, Mairi, Jean and Suzanne from the Arrgheads,
0:21:37 > 0:21:38would you please now leave the studio?
0:21:40 > 0:21:43So, Tink, you're one of the roller derby team as well?
0:21:43 > 0:21:45I am, I'm actually a referee now.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48- Oh, really? - Yes, I played for six years
0:21:48 > 0:21:51and I've been refereeing since the beginning of April.
0:21:51 > 0:21:52Is that even less safe?
0:21:52 > 0:21:54You just get caught in the middle?
0:21:54 > 0:21:56It is because you're watching the game
0:21:56 > 0:21:58while they're throwing themselves off the track,
0:21:58 > 0:22:01so, yeah, you need to jump over them sometimes.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04And I know you also powerlift.
0:22:04 > 0:22:05- I do.- And enjoy welding.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08I do a bit of welding. I haven't done it for a wee while,
0:22:08 > 0:22:10but, yes, I like just lifting heavy things.
0:22:10 > 0:22:15Among other hobbies - archaeology and coastal rowing.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17- Yes.- And motorbiking.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20Your hobbies is the most interesting list of hobbies we've ever had.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21I've been around for quite a long time
0:22:21 > 0:22:24so I've tried quite a few things over the years.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Not as long as me and I haven't done all that!
0:22:26 > 0:22:28I'll give anything a go.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Now you're doing something even more remarkable,
0:22:30 > 0:22:32you're going to try and win the Arrgheads £6,000
0:22:32 > 0:22:35and beat the Eggheads from a position of one on five,
0:22:35 > 0:22:37which... The great thing is if you do it,
0:22:37 > 0:22:40we'll talk about it for ages cos it doesn't often happen.
0:22:40 > 0:22:41- We wish you well.- Thank you.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44Lisa, Barry, Kevin, Dave and Judith,
0:22:44 > 0:22:46you're playing for something that money can't buy,
0:22:46 > 0:22:48the Eggheads' reputation, and to keep this roll going.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54This time, they're all General Knowledge.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57Teams can confer. I'm sorry, that doesn't help you.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59But, Arrgheads, the question is,
0:22:59 > 0:23:02can you with your one brain defeat these five?
0:23:02 > 0:23:04And would you like to go first or second?
0:23:04 > 0:23:05I'll go second, please.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11Here we go. Eggheads, your question.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14How did Theresa May describe the referendum vote
0:23:14 > 0:23:17in favour of Brexit in her keynote speech
0:23:17 > 0:23:20at the Conservative Party Conference in 2016?
0:23:24 > 0:23:27- I don't think I've heard this.- No.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30I would have gone quiet revolution, myself, but...
0:23:30 > 0:23:32- But it wasn't silent revolt, was it? - No.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36And it wasn't a coup.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39I don't think she would describe it as a coup.
0:23:39 > 0:23:43You couldn't describe it as a coup and it wasn't silent.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44Do you think it was silent?
0:23:44 > 0:23:46The other two are both plausible, I think.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48- Yeah, they are.- I don't think it will be the coup.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50Well, they both mean the same thing, come to think of it.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54I think she would have used "quiet revolution" as her words,
0:23:54 > 0:23:56rather than revolt.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58I think she might have used revolution
0:23:58 > 0:24:01- more than she'd use revolt. - Yeah. What do you think, Kevin?
0:24:01 > 0:24:04I can't really choose between the two, unfortunately,
0:24:04 > 0:24:05because they are both plausible.
0:24:05 > 0:24:10If we're going to have a vote, I'd bet on quiet revolution.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12I'll go with quiet revolution.
0:24:13 > 0:24:14I'd go with quiet revolution as well.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19- I'll go with the majority. - All right.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23- OK.- I think that's a majority verdict, anyway, isn't it?
0:24:25 > 0:24:30Right, this is our version of democracy in action.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35And we don't think, of the three,
0:24:35 > 0:24:38that it's very likely that she would have said "peaceful coup".
0:24:38 > 0:24:40I don't did she would have used the word "coup".
0:24:40 > 0:24:43As between the other two, it's a sort of 50-50, really.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46But on balance,
0:24:46 > 0:24:50we'll go for "quiet revolution".
0:24:50 > 0:24:51You are right.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Quiet revolution.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56OK, Tink, your question.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01If something is rubescent, it is becoming which colour?
0:25:04 > 0:25:05I would say red.
0:25:05 > 0:25:06Red is correct.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09You made quicker work of that one!
0:25:09 > 0:25:13All right, let's go back to our meeting of the Kremlin here!
0:25:15 > 0:25:19Eggheads, in Greek mythology, what was Cassandra?
0:25:23 > 0:25:24Prophetess.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26That nobody paid any attention to!
0:25:26 > 0:25:30We'll be a bit quicker on that one. She was a prophetess.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34Prophetess. Was she warning of doom the whole time?
0:25:34 > 0:25:35And no-one paid any attention.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38- Right.- She was given the gift of prophecy by Apollo,
0:25:38 > 0:25:40but when she refused to sleep with him,
0:25:40 > 0:25:42Apollo actually spat in her mouth,
0:25:42 > 0:25:44and then said, "No, you'll still be a prophet,
0:25:44 > 0:25:45"but nobody will then believe you."
0:25:45 > 0:25:47Ah, brilliant.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49That's the correct answer.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51The Eggheads are ahead.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54But you can draw level. Tink, your question.
0:25:54 > 0:25:59Which golfer defeated Lee Westwood in the final day's singles matches
0:25:59 > 0:26:02to secure the Ryder Cup for the USA in 2016?
0:26:07 > 0:26:10Erm, I don't know an awful lot about golf.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13Tiger Woods is the big, big name in there.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17I'm not sure that it was him, though.
0:26:17 > 0:26:21Erm... I'm going to go with Patrick Reed.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Let's see, Eggheads, is she right?
0:26:24 > 0:26:25I think it's Ryan Moore.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26It is Ryan Moore.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29- OK.- So it's your first wrong answer in the final.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32Because the Eggheads went first,
0:26:32 > 0:26:34they can take it with this question.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37In traditional Jewish cookery, what is schmaltz?
0:26:42 > 0:26:44I have lived in fear for years
0:26:44 > 0:26:46of getting a Jewish cookery question wrong,
0:26:46 > 0:26:49- but schmaltz is poultry fat. - Poultry fat, yeah.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51- It's what?- It's poultry fat.
0:26:51 > 0:26:52Oh, right.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Cos it's like schmaltz the phrase.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58Schmaltz is a type of fat. It's poultry fat.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Tink, do you think they're right?
0:27:00 > 0:27:02- I have no idea.- It's tricky.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Barry does a bit of cooking or your wife does, Barry?
0:27:05 > 0:27:08- Which is it?- She's certainly used schmaltz in the past.
0:27:08 > 0:27:12She used schmaltz in the past and he doesn't look very uncertain here.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14Poultry fat is the right answer.
0:27:14 > 0:27:15Poultry fat it is.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18Eggheads, we say congratulations, you have won.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Yeah, I thought you might get that, Barry.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31And I'm sorry, Tink, that it didn't quite work on the...
0:27:31 > 0:27:33- It's OK.- What was it, the second question?
0:27:33 > 0:27:35How soon we forget, what was it?
0:27:35 > 0:27:36Yeah, it was golf.
0:27:36 > 0:27:37- Oh, golf!- Yeah.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40- A very hard question. - The thing about golf
0:27:40 > 0:27:42- is either you know it or you don't. - Well, with that one, certainly.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46- Yeah.- Because Patrick Reed did participate in that team
0:27:46 > 0:27:48and was quite successful.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52It was quite a good choice, but, as I said, in that particular match,
0:27:52 > 0:27:54- it was Ryan Moore.- All right, well,
0:27:54 > 0:27:57what a great team to come in and visit us. Thank you so much, Tink.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59- It's been good fun.- Good stuff, thank you for playing.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01Commiserations, Arrgheads.
0:28:01 > 0:28:03The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them,
0:28:03 > 0:28:06and, actually, as well, five of you in the final is quite something.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08This winning streak continues.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10It does mean you won't be going home with the £6,000
0:28:10 > 0:28:13so the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Eggheads, well done.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17Who will beat you? Are you going to get to 10,000?
0:28:17 > 0:28:20Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:20 > 0:28:24have the brains to bring them down. £7,000 says they don't.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Till then, goodbye.
