0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably 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 > 0:00:31They are the Eggheads.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34- Are you ready to work? - We certainly are.- We certainly are.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36All right. They like getting down to it here.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39Taking on our quiz champions today are the Seascaliens from Cumbria.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Now, this team, with the brilliant name,
0:00:41 > 0:00:44all met through attending their local golf-club quiz.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48- Let's meet them.- Hi, I'm Mitch, and I'm a police sergeant.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Hi, I'm Peter, and I run a railway museum.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Hello, I'm Steve, and I'm an electrical engineer.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hello, I'm John, I'm a commercial manager.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hello, my name's Matt and I'm an engineering consultant.
0:01:00 > 0:01:01So, Mitch and team, hello.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03- Hello.- Great to have you with us.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06And just tell us, the word Seascaliens - I love the name,
0:01:06 > 0:01:10- Mitch, explain it.- Well, we all attend - some of us live -
0:01:10 > 0:01:12but we all attend the Seascale Golf Club quiz,
0:01:12 > 0:01:16yet none of us were born in Seascale.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18I see, so aliens to Seascale?
0:01:18 > 0:01:20We are aliens to Seascale - all except Matt at the end,
0:01:20 > 0:01:23who IS from Seascale but no longer lives there.
0:01:23 > 0:01:24Oh, fantastic.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27This gets ever more exciting and complicated.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30I seem to remember a long time ago Seascale was known as
0:01:30 > 0:01:33- the cleverest town in Britain. - Yes, it was.
0:01:33 > 0:01:38In the '50s it was the atomic weapons research centre
0:01:38 > 0:01:41at Windscale, which is now Sellafield, of course,
0:01:41 > 0:01:45and most of the people that were bussed in were scientists,
0:01:45 > 0:01:48and at one point in the school,
0:01:48 > 0:01:51every child who did the 11-plus passed.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54So their parents were all nuclear specialists, basically.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58Nuclear scientists, physicists, engineers, etc.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01How interesting. You've got a lot to live up to here.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03We're here to debunk that myth, yes.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05- Are you quizzers? - We quiz against each other,
0:02:05 > 0:02:07we've never actually quizzed as a team.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10Well, listen, good luck, Challengers. Every day
0:02:10 > 0:02:13there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16If they fail to defeat the Eggheads we just roll that prize money
0:02:16 > 0:02:19over to the next show. Seascaliens,
0:02:19 > 0:02:22the Eggheads had a bit of a bashing a couple of games ago,
0:02:22 > 0:02:26they won the games since then, so there's £2,000 for you to win today.
0:02:26 > 0:02:27Would you like to crack on?
0:02:27 > 0:02:29- Yes.- I thought so.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of History.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34One of you needs to go against either
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Beth, Chris, Pat, Steve or Lisa.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- That will be you, Peter. - I guess that's going to be me, yes.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42OK, Peter. And which Egghead, Peter?
0:02:42 > 0:02:44Choose any one you like.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46They all look absolutely fabulous.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48I'm going to choose Chris.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52- And we know why, don't we? - What is the reason why?
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Our good friend here runs the railway museum at Ravenglass.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Ah. So there's a little bit of railway in common.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01- Oh, yeah.- Wonderful. Well, Chris will be in his element.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Peter from Seascaliens taking on another railway man,
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Chris from the Eggheads.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11So, tell us about the railway museum, Peter,
0:03:11 > 0:03:14- cos it sounds wonderful. - It's absolutely fabulous.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Since I retired, it took me 18 months to set it up
0:03:17 > 0:03:20and I've had it open now since June of last year.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22It's open one week a month.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24We get people in all the time, local people,
0:03:24 > 0:03:27travelling people, and it's just a joy to run.
0:03:27 > 0:03:32And it's showing, not model railway stuff, but serious real-life stuff?
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Yeah. It's all to do with what's known as Railwayana.
0:03:35 > 0:03:39So old-time signs, posters, tickets, clocks,
0:03:39 > 0:03:42anything I've collected from the old railways of West Cumbria.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45I can see Chris getting physically excited there.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Well, steady on there, but...
0:03:47 > 0:03:49yeah, I can see where we're coming from.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51I mean, there is just so much stuff out there,
0:03:51 > 0:03:54cos the railway, it was the whole world, if you see what I mean.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- It was a whole world on its own. - Yeah, and what sort of things...
0:03:57 > 0:03:59I'm assuming you haven't been into Peter's museum?
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- No, I haven't been there yet, no. - You'll have to book in to see it,
0:04:02 > 0:04:05but what sort of things would you like looking at, Chris?
0:04:05 > 0:04:08I like looking at old signs, old posters...
0:04:09 > 0:04:11..locomotive building plates,
0:04:11 > 0:04:13that sort of thing, you know, station signs.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- There we are. A man after your own heart, Peter.- Absolutely,
0:04:16 > 0:04:19and I've got all of those things, and seeing it's Chris,
0:04:19 > 0:04:22if he comes down it'll be free entry for him.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24- Oh, righty-ho.- There we go. So, History, Peter.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Would you like to go first or second?
0:04:26 > 0:04:28I'll go first, please.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32Here's your question.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36Henry Pu Yi was the last Emperor of which country?
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Can you just spell his surname, please?
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Yes, it's Henry, as you'd expect,
0:04:42 > 0:04:46and then P-U and then new word, Y-I.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48OK.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Pretty sure it won't be France, without a Louis in his name,
0:04:52 > 0:04:56so I'm going to go for China.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58China is correct. Well done.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Chris, over to you.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05Which historical figure was assassinated by Gavrilo Princip?
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Whoa.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16Now, if I had a time machine I would love to go back to 1914,
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Sarajevo, and knock the gun out the hand of Gavrilo Princip,
0:05:19 > 0:05:22before he could assassinate Archduke Franz Ferdinand
0:05:22 > 0:05:24and trigger World War I.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Archduke Franz Ferdinand is the right answer.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30We go back to you. Peter,
0:05:30 > 0:05:33which wife of Henry VIII had a sister called Mary
0:05:33 > 0:05:36who was also a mistress of Henry?
0:05:40 > 0:05:44Now, I think I remember seeing this on the telly recently,
0:05:44 > 0:05:47and I'm going to go Catherine Howard.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Interesting answer. Chris, do you know?
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Well, I think Anne Boleyn had a sister.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55Anne Boleyn is the answer here.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56We go over to you, Chris.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Which of these Elizabeths was appointed Dean
0:05:58 > 0:06:02of the London School Of Medicine For Women in 1883?
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Well, that was the... I think she was the first woman to actually
0:06:11 > 0:06:14qualify as a doctor in this... medical doctor in this country,
0:06:14 > 0:06:16and that was Elizabeth Garrett Anderson.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Elizabeth Garrett Anderson is the right answer.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Oh, these Eggheads!
0:06:21 > 0:06:23I thought Chris was going to go astray there.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27So you need to get this one right, Peter,
0:06:27 > 0:06:30otherwise you are going to have to bar Chris from your museum.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Which Pope was the father of the infamous figure
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Lucrezia Borgia?
0:06:41 > 0:06:42Hm. Um...
0:06:42 > 0:06:45Not too hot on Popes, I'm afraid.
0:06:47 > 0:06:53Recognising the question, I will plump for Innocent VII.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55I'm sorry, it's Alexander VI.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59So the round goes to Chris cos there's no way back for you, Peter,
0:06:59 > 0:07:01beaten by our Egghead. Early days, though.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Return to your teams, please, gentlemen. We'll play on.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08So, as it stands, the Seascaliens have lost one brain
0:07:08 > 0:07:11from the final round. The Eggheads haven't lost any -
0:07:11 > 0:07:14so far. The next subject for you is Music.
0:07:14 > 0:07:15Who would like Music?
0:07:15 > 0:07:17- With me, is it?- It's with you, Steve, isn't it?
0:07:17 > 0:07:19- Yeah.- Steve. - I'll take the Music, yeah.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22- Against which Egghead? - I'll go for the fragrant Beth.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27- OK.- I don't smell that bad, do I?
0:07:27 > 0:07:28- In a good way.- In a good way.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Steve from Seascaliens to take on Beth from the Eggheads.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34To ensure there is no conferring, please take your positions.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Well, you're a massive music fan, Steve, aren't you?
0:07:38 > 0:07:41- I am, yes.- And you've got how many albums?
0:07:41 > 0:07:44- About 3,000 on vinyl. - On vinyl? Wonderful.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46- So you never threw the record player away?- Never.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49So where does your collection concentrate on?
0:07:49 > 0:07:52- What sort of music?- Sort of the '70s, anything to do with the '70s,
0:07:52 > 0:07:54that's where I grew up, really.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Glam rock, punk rock, prog rock, heavy rock.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Yeah, what, King Crimson and Bowie and all that?
0:08:00 > 0:08:05Iron Butterfly And Mountain. People have never heard of them now.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Fantastic. Well, the prog-rock thing looks like a bit of an aberration
0:08:08 > 0:08:11now, but some of that music was amazing, wasn't it?
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Yeah, it's had a bit of a resurgence lately, as well.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Yeah. So Music, Steve, would you like to go first or second?
0:08:16 > 0:08:17I'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:08:20 > 0:08:25And here we go. Who sang the lead vocals on the UK hit singles
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Common People and Disco 2000?
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Well, I know this one because
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Damon Albarn is the lead singer of Blur,
0:08:37 > 0:08:40and Richard Ashcroft was the lead singer of...
0:08:41 > 0:08:42I can't think of that one.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Jarvis Cocker was the lead singer with Pulp,
0:08:45 > 0:08:46so the answer's Jarvis Cocker.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48Jarvis Cocker is correct.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50- Ashcroft was the Verve. - Verve. That's right.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Over to you, Beth. Which girl's name
0:08:53 > 0:08:56is the title of a song from a musical that includes the lines
0:08:56 > 0:08:58"Say it loud, and there's music playing,
0:08:58 > 0:09:01"say it soft and it's almost like praying"?
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Hmm.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Can I have it again, please, Jeremy?
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Which girl's name is the title
0:09:12 > 0:09:15of a song from a musical that includes the lines,
0:09:15 > 0:09:18"Say it loud, and there's music playing,
0:09:18 > 0:09:20"say it soft and it's almost like praying"?
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Oh, the praying might be a little clue there.
0:09:25 > 0:09:26And...I think...
0:09:26 > 0:09:29It's not one I immediately know, but I think it's Maria.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31The answer is Maria.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34That's right. OK, Steve.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39The violinist and conductor Andre Rieu was born in which country?
0:09:42 > 0:09:44This is one of my dad's favourites, this one.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47And I believe he's from Switzerland.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49No, he's Netherlands.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51I'm sorry. You can blame your dad for that.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Yeah. I'll have words with him.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55That's his fault.
0:09:55 > 0:09:59Beth, in which city did Sir Charles Halle
0:09:59 > 0:10:03set up a Royal College Of Music in 1893?
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Well, the Halle Orchestra is...
0:10:10 > 0:10:13associated with Manchester,
0:10:13 > 0:10:16so I assume that's where he set his school up - Manchester.
0:10:16 > 0:10:17Yes, you're right on every count.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Manchester is right. Well done.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21OK, Steve, back to you.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24Boy In Da Corner was the debut album
0:10:24 > 0:10:27of which British recording artist and producer?
0:10:31 > 0:10:35I think Boy In Da Corner was Dizzee Rascal's first album.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Dizzee Rascal is the correct answer.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Well done.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41OK, Beth.
0:10:41 > 0:10:42Your question,
0:10:42 > 0:10:44you can take it with this.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48The 2016 album Together is a collaboration between
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Michael Ball and which other singer?
0:10:54 > 0:10:57Lovely complementary voices,
0:10:57 > 0:11:01and I saw them on several programmes promoting this album,
0:11:01 > 0:11:03and it's Alfie Boe.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Yes, it's Michael Ball and Alfie Boe.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Quite right, Beth. Well done. You're in the final. Three out of three.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Sorry, difficult to play against these Eggheads when they don't get
0:11:11 > 0:11:12- any wrong, Steve, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15Please return to us, and we'll play round three.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20So, as it stands, the Seascaliens have lost two brains
0:11:20 > 0:11:23from the final round. The Eggheads are now playing well,
0:11:23 > 0:11:26they haven't lost any, and the next subject for you is Arts & Books.
0:11:28 > 0:11:29Silence.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31- Who wants this, captain?- Matt?
0:11:31 > 0:11:34- Yeah, I think I've drawn the short straw on this one.- OK.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Matt, our engineering consultant.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Which Egghead? It can't be Chris or Beth.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41THEY CONFER
0:11:41 > 0:11:42- Steve?- Steve?
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- Steve?- Yeah. We'll go with Steve.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Matt from Seascaliens to play Steve from the Eggheads on Arts & Books.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Please, go to the Question Room now.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Do you enjoy a quiz, Matt?
0:11:54 > 0:11:55I do, yes.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Why were you chosen for Arts & Books?
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Nobody else wanted it.
0:11:59 > 0:12:00THEY LAUGH
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Arts & Books, Matt. First or second?
0:12:03 > 0:12:04I like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10The book Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them
0:12:10 > 0:12:14appears in Harry Potter stories as a textbook by which writer?
0:12:20 > 0:12:24Now, I know nothing about Harry Potter,
0:12:24 > 0:12:27so bit of a difficult question for me.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Albert Runcorn doesn't sound terribly convincing.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33Um...
0:12:33 > 0:12:37Newt Scamander Sounds like something out of James Bond,
0:12:37 > 0:12:40so I'll have to go for Bathilda Bagshot.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43- Lisa, you'll know this. - It's Newt Scamander, I'm afraid.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Newt Scamander is the answer, Matt.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Steve, Veruca Salt is a character in which Roald Dahl book?
0:12:53 > 0:12:55That's Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, Jeremy.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Charlie And The Chocolate Factory is quite right.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Matt, which British artist was
0:12:59 > 0:13:02the best man at the wedding of fashion designer Ossie Clark
0:13:02 > 0:13:04and Celia Birtwell?
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Those fashion designer names don't ring any bells.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16I think Jack Vettriano was a Scottish artist,
0:13:16 > 0:13:20so I would guess David Hockney would be
0:13:20 > 0:13:24more sociable than Lucien Freud, so David Hockney.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26David Hockney. Now, my memory - I'll check this with the Eggs -
0:13:26 > 0:13:29is that he did actually do a painting of Ossie Clark
0:13:29 > 0:13:31with a cat in it. David Hockney is the right answer.
0:13:31 > 0:13:35Is that the connection, Eggheads? Help us here. Was there a cat?
0:13:35 > 0:13:38- Mr and Mrs Clark with Percy. - Mr and Mrs Clark with Percy.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40How brilliant you are, Pat.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42You know the name of the cat.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43What about that?
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Well, now, we're learning all the time, Matt, aren't we?
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Steve, your question. In the Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe
0:13:48 > 0:13:51by CS Lewis, what is the first name of the brother
0:13:51 > 0:13:53of Peter, Susan and Lucy?
0:13:56 > 0:13:59- It's Edmund, Jeremy. - Oh, straight there!
0:13:59 > 0:14:00I've read them.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03- You don't even hang about. - Well, like I say, I've read them,
0:14:03 > 0:14:06and I don't think there's an Eric in them, I don't think there's
0:14:06 > 0:14:09a Eustace, so I know there's an Edmund, so Edmund's my answer.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Edmund is the right answer. Well done.
0:14:12 > 0:14:13He has two, you have one.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15You need to get this one right, here, Matt.
0:14:15 > 0:14:19Which British painter, born in 1775,
0:14:19 > 0:14:22spent a lot of time at Petworth House in West Sussex
0:14:22 > 0:14:25which is now home to a collection of his works?
0:14:30 > 0:14:35Now, I think this was the subject of a recent film
0:14:35 > 0:14:38with, I think, Timothy Spall.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41And I think that was JMW Turner.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Brilliant. JMW Turner, it is.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47So, two out of three. Is it enough?
0:14:47 > 0:14:48Steve, we go to you.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52Small Great Things is a 2016 novel by which writer?
0:14:57 > 0:14:58I don't know that one.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00I've not heard of the book.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04I've read some Zoe Heller stuff, so I might like to think
0:15:04 > 0:15:07if it was one of hers I might have heard of it, but...
0:15:07 > 0:15:08again, I really don't know.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Jodie Picoult is quite prolific,
0:15:10 > 0:15:12it could well be her.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15I really don't know, so it's a one-in-three guess,
0:15:15 > 0:15:17and I'm going to get Victoria Hislop.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Eggheads?
0:15:19 > 0:15:23We're not entirely sure, but my inkling was Jodie Picoult.
0:15:23 > 0:15:24No, they're not sure.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26- I'd guess Picoult, as well, but no confidence.- Yeah.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30They're all guessing Jodie Picoult, and that is the right answer, Steve,
0:15:30 > 0:15:32so it's not Victoria Hislop. You got it wrong.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35After three questions each the scores are level.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37You hung on in successfully there. We go to Sudden Death.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40It gets a bit harder, I don't give you alternative answers.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43The name of which small mammal appears in the title
0:15:43 > 0:15:45of a Shakespeare play?
0:15:45 > 0:15:49That would be the shrew in The Taming Of The Shrew.
0:15:49 > 0:15:50The shrew is right.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53Steve, Abigail's Party is a play
0:15:53 > 0:15:56written in the 1970s by which man?
0:15:57 > 0:15:58Mike Leigh.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Mike Leigh is right.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04Matt, the first Charlie and Lola book by Lauren Child,
0:16:04 > 0:16:09was called I Will Not Ever, Never Eat A... what?
0:16:09 > 0:16:14I've never heard of that so I'm going to have to guess at a snail.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17No. More obvious.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Tomato.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Steve, you can take the round with this.
0:16:21 > 0:16:26Which female novelist was nominated for a Booker prize in 1969
0:16:26 > 0:16:28for The Nice And The Good,
0:16:28 > 0:16:32and in 1970 for Bruno's Dream?
0:16:32 > 0:16:34I really don't know.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37I'd guess at...
0:16:37 > 0:16:38Iris Murdoch.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Do you know, I just knew you were going to get that.
0:16:41 > 0:16:42Iris Murdoch is right, Steve, well done.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44On Sudden Death you've beaten Matt.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Sorry, Matt, he's very good.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48Please come back and rejoin your teams.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50One more round to play.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54All right, we're going to do some really top-level quizzing now, Eggs, OK?
0:16:54 > 0:16:59The painting we referred to by Hockney had a cat in it.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03- The title of the painting said the cat's name was Percy.- Yeah.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07That was actually the name of one of their other cats.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10Hockney liked the name better than the actual name
0:17:10 > 0:17:13of the cat in the painting. Eggheads, what was it?
0:17:13 > 0:17:15If you give me three choices I might know.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Was it Boris, was it Barry,...
0:17:18 > 0:17:20- No!- Or was it Blanche?
0:17:20 > 0:17:23- Blanche.- That was too easy, wasn't it?
0:17:23 > 0:17:26As it stands, the Seascaliens have lost three brains
0:17:26 > 0:17:28from the final round, the Eggheads have not lost any.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30The next subject is Sport.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32So who wants this?
0:17:32 > 0:17:34I'm going to have to do it, to leave you in the final.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36It's up to you. Either way.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39I don't... You stand more chance in the final, I think.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41- Are you sure?- Yeah.- OK.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44- So, you never know.- You never know.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47- John, is it you?- Yeah, it's going to be me.- OK, John on Sport.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51You can have, let's see, Pat or Lisa are the only two left.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- Lisa?- Yeah.- I think we'll pick Lisa, thank you, Jeremy.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55OK. Good stuff.
0:17:55 > 0:18:00John from the Seascaliens will play Lisa from the Eggheads on Sport.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03And so, for the last time, please go to our Question Room.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Good luck on Sport, John.
0:18:06 > 0:18:07How you feeling about it?
0:18:07 > 0:18:10It's probably not my best subject
0:18:10 > 0:18:12- but I'll give it my best go. - All right.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15You're up against Lisa. She is a doughty player on Sport.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Would you like to go first or second?
0:18:17 > 0:18:19I think I better go first, please.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Your first question.
0:18:24 > 0:18:28At the 2002 and 2006 Commonwealth Games
0:18:28 > 0:18:32cyclist Chris Hoy won gold medals for which country?
0:18:35 > 0:18:39Luckily, this is one sport I know a little bit about,
0:18:39 > 0:18:42and I believe that Chris Hoy is Scottish.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44So I would say Scotland.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46- Scotland is correct.- Well done.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50Lisa, the model Elin Nordegren
0:18:50 > 0:18:53divorced which sports star in 2010?
0:18:57 > 0:18:59She was Mrs Tiger Woods.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Tiger Woods is the right answer.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03John, the football team Juventus
0:19:03 > 0:19:06is based in which Italian city?
0:19:09 > 0:19:13This is possibly tricky,
0:19:13 > 0:19:18although, I once was on a bus trip that went through Turin,
0:19:18 > 0:19:22and there is some kind of shred
0:19:22 > 0:19:28of recognition that Juventus are a Turin football team.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32And Turin is right. Nice work.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34And I know Sport is not especially your thing -
0:19:34 > 0:19:36- is that right?- That's correct, yes.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39OK, well, you're playing like it is, so well done.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Lisa, in which year did Niki Lauda
0:19:41 > 0:19:43win his first Formula 1 championship?
0:19:47 > 0:19:49OK. Um...
0:19:49 > 0:19:51'79 was Scheckter.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53'71...
0:19:53 > 0:19:56Why have I got Mass in my head? He wasn't a world champion.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59Anyway, it's not as early as that. It's 1975.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01Yeah, you're brilliant.
0:20:01 > 0:20:021975 is right.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Two each. This round is kind of steaming along here.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07He's playing well, your team-mate.
0:20:07 > 0:20:08Come on, John, get this right.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12The tennis player Brian Teacher won one Grand Slam Singles title
0:20:12 > 0:20:15in 1980, when he was successful at which tournament?
0:20:19 > 0:20:22This is going to have to be a kind of
0:20:22 > 0:20:25a little bit of deduction, if that was possible.
0:20:25 > 0:20:31I've got a feeling that the US Open is probably the most publicised
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Grand Slam tournament outside of Wimbledon
0:20:33 > 0:20:36and I haven't heard that name,
0:20:36 > 0:20:39so I'm tempted not to pick the US Open.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42I don't think any of the Eggheads have a go down the left option,
0:20:42 > 0:20:45so I'll pick a go down the left and I'll say Australia.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Australian Open is the right answer.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Three out of three, playing like a champion here, John.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Lisa, to stay in...
0:20:54 > 0:20:57in 2011, the Australian rugby union player
0:20:57 > 0:21:02Matt Giteau joined which rugby team?
0:21:06 > 0:21:10See, I mean, I think John did a brilliant logic job on the last one,
0:21:10 > 0:21:12in that it was unlikely to be the French Open
0:21:12 > 0:21:15and the US Open didn't ring any bells either.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17I haven't even got that much to go on.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19It's a straight one-in-three.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Yeah, well deserved, John.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23I'll go for Toulon.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25Toulon is the right answer.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27- Whoa! Look at that. - JEREMY CHUCKLES
0:21:27 > 0:21:29I suppose we can forgive her for that, John.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30Well done. Well done.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32All right.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33Sudden Death.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35So you've got none wrong so far.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38It gets a bit harder - I don't give you alternatives.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39John, here's your first.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43The former England cricketer Ian Botham was born in which decade?
0:21:43 > 0:21:48I think it's got to be the '60s or '70s.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52I would pick the '60s.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Ian Botham born in the '60s.
0:21:55 > 0:21:59He's actually the '50s. 1955.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01Your question, Lisa, for the round.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Which tennis player won the Ladies Singles title at Wimbledon
0:22:04 > 0:22:09in 1988, '89, '91, '92, '93, '95 and '96?
0:22:09 > 0:22:11One more time for me, Jeremy, please.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Which tennis player won the Ladies Singles title at Wimbledon
0:22:14 > 0:22:19in 1988, '89, '91, '92, '93, '95 and '96?
0:22:19 > 0:22:21- There are...seven.- Seven!
0:22:21 > 0:22:25Yeah, OK. So '94's missing cos that was Conchita Martinez,
0:22:25 > 0:22:28and then, yeah, then '7 you get to Hingis,
0:22:28 > 0:22:29so it must be Steffi Graf.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31If you've got this right you're in the final.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Steffi Graf is the right answer, Lisa, well done.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36It was that beastly Toulon answer that she guessed at, John,
0:22:36 > 0:22:39that did it for you there. You've been knocked out as well.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42Looking difficult but not impossible for our Challengers.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Return to us, please. We'll play the final.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48So this is what we have been playing towards -
0:22:48 > 0:22:50it is time for the final round,
0:22:50 > 0:22:52which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:22:55 > 0:22:56won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00So, Peter, Steve, John and Matt from the Seascaliens,
0:23:00 > 0:23:03I'm afraid I need to ask you to leave the studio.
0:23:05 > 0:23:06OK, Mitch. Here we go.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09You're playing to win the Seascaliens £2,000.
0:23:09 > 0:23:10- Wish you all the best.- Thank you.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Lisa, Steve, Pat, Chris and Beth, well, what can I say?
0:23:13 > 0:23:16You're playing for the Eggheads' reputation,
0:23:16 > 0:23:19which was bashed about a bit but you're now back on the road.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Look at you, all five of you here.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26They're all going to be General Knowledge, Mitch,
0:23:26 > 0:23:30and you can confer. Sorry, that doesn't help you there.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34The question is, can your one brain take down these five?
0:23:34 > 0:23:36All the best. Would you like to go first or second?
0:23:36 > 0:23:38I'll go first, Jeremy.
0:23:41 > 0:23:42And here we go.
0:23:42 > 0:23:47Which of the Queen's grandchildren was born on 23rd March, 1990?
0:23:51 > 0:23:531990, um...
0:23:53 > 0:23:57I'm not 100% certain but I'll go with Harry.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59- When was Harry born?- 84, I think.
0:23:59 > 0:24:0084.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Quite a bit earlier. It's Eugenie.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06OK. Eggheads, to take the lead.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10What type of food is the Italian zampone?
0:24:12 > 0:24:16I think it's a sort of sausage made from pig's trotters.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18I thought it was ham or something.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20- Sausage made from...? - Pig's trotters.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22They used to collect it together and turned into some sort of
0:24:22 > 0:24:24- sausage-like thing.- OK.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- OK.- Any possibility of...- I know to give that a miss in the deli.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31- Cheers, Pat.- Well, the rule is it's always cheese,
0:24:31 > 0:24:33- but I don't think it is in this case.- No.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35- Zampone.- If you've got an inkling for sausage, it's a sausage.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37I've not heard of it as a cheese,
0:24:37 > 0:24:39and if you've got a thing for sausage I'm very happy to back you.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42- Yeah, I've not heard of it. - I think it's pig's trotters.
0:24:42 > 0:24:43I'm happy with that if you are.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46I think it's... We think it's a sort of sausage.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49Sausage. Made, did you say, with pig's trotters?
0:24:49 > 0:24:50- Yes.- Right.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53Chris said the rule is always go cheese,
0:24:53 > 0:24:55- but you're right, sausage is correct.- Well done, Pat.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57OK, Mitch, your question.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00The American actress and model Barbara Bach played
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Anya Amasova in which James Bond film?
0:25:08 > 0:25:13My first thought was it's definitely not Diamonds Are Forever,
0:25:13 > 0:25:16cos she was an actress in the mid-to-late '70s.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20And my first thought was For Your Eyes Only,
0:25:20 > 0:25:22but then you brought The Spy Who Loved Me up.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25They always say you should go with your first thoughts,
0:25:25 > 0:25:29and my first thought was For Your Eyes Only.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32I'm going to change my mind,
0:25:32 > 0:25:34I'm going to go for The Spy Who Loved Me.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36I'm so glad you did. It's right.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Well done. The Spy Who Loved Me.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Brings you level with the Eggs.
0:25:40 > 0:25:44What is the capital, Eggheads, of the African country of Chad?
0:25:48 > 0:25:51- N'Djamena.- Yeah.
0:25:51 > 0:25:52Yeah?
0:25:52 > 0:25:55Maputo is Mozambique, and Yamoussoukro is...
0:25:55 > 0:25:57Ivory Coast, yep.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00It's N'Djamena, Jeremy.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02N'Djamena is your answer.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04N'Djamena Is the correct answer.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08Now, they have two and you have one, Mitch.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12There's no easy way to say this, you have to get this right or it's over.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14Take your time. In Guernsey,
0:26:14 > 0:26:17lawyers are known as Advocates of the Royal Court,
0:26:17 > 0:26:21and wear what on their heads instead of a wig?
0:26:25 > 0:26:26Wow. Um...
0:26:26 > 0:26:31Cornette would be a tricoloured item that you wear on the head.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35A galero sounds a bit too Spanish
0:26:35 > 0:26:38and Latin, so I'm going to discount that.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42I don't know what a toque is.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44I'm going to go with toque.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47Toque is your answer.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Let's see with the Eggheads. Do you know?
