These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
Together, they make up the Eggheads - | 0:00:09 | 0:00:11 | |
arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
The question is - can they be beaten? | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
Welcome to Eggheads, | 0:00:23 | 0:00:24 | |
the show where a team of five quiz Challengers pit their wits against | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
Here they are, the Eggheads. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
-Ready to roll? EGGS: -Yes. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
Very much so. Hoping to beat the might of the Eggheads today are | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
the Old Dorks from Surrey. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
Now, the majority of this team | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
of friends met through setting up their own book club in Dorking. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:45 | |
-Let's meet them. -Hi, I'm Kevin, and I am a communications director. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
Hello, I'm John. I'm a business journalist. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
Hi, I'm Hugh, and I'm a physics PhD student. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
Hi, I'm Mas, and I'm an IT consultant. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
Hello, I'm Mark, and I'm a lawyer. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
-Kevin and team, hello. ALL: -Hello. -Good to see you. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
And Dorking is the centre of the world, Kevin, is it, for all of you? | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
Absolutely. Most of us got to know each other through our sons playing | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
football, initially, and the book club is kind of an offshoot. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
And because the football team was called Old Dorkinions, | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
we kind of abbreviated that to Old Dorks. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
To Old Dorks. And combination of football and books | 0:01:17 | 0:01:21 | |
can be very powerful in the quizzing world. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
You've got sport covered, you've got literature. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
Yes. Quite a good range amongst the team. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
-Hopefully. -Do you like to quiz? | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
We do enjoy the odd pub quiz. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:30 | |
Sometimes we win, sometimes we don't. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
-But it's good fun. -And do you watch these five doing their thing? | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
We do, and they look even more scary now. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
Well, actually facing them is more terrifying... | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
Yes, I can believe that. Yeah. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
Well, they are on quite good form, at the moment. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
Good luck. Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash | 0:01:45 | 0:01:47 | |
up for grabs for our Challengers. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:49 | |
However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
that prize money rolls over to the next show. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
So, Old Dorks, the Eggheads have won the last 25 games. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:59 | |
That means there is a jackpot of £26,000 for you to win today. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:03 | |
Oh, I just sensed the temperature rise. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Food & Drink. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
Now one of you needs to play either Beth, Chris, Pat, Dave, or Lisa. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
-OK, so... -Gosh, I think that's... | 0:02:12 | 0:02:13 | |
Food & Drink. An interesting choice. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
-Mark, do you feel up for it? -I'm prepared to do it. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
-It's not my primary subject, but I'm prepared to do it. -Good. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
Thanks, Mark. So, it'll be Mark. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
Mark, OK. A lawyer. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:23 | |
Against which Egghead? | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
Any one of the five. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
I would take on Dave, I would suggest. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:28 | |
I'm happy to go with your decision. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
OK. We'll take on Dave, please, Jeremy. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
All right. So, Mark from the Old Dorks takes on Dave, | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
Tremendous Knowledge as we call him, from the Eggheads, | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
on Food & Drink. To ensure there is no conferring, | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
would you please both take your positions | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
in our famous Question Room? | 0:02:41 | 0:02:42 | |
OK, good luck in this round, Mark. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:46 | |
It sounds like it wasn't particularly your choice to do this? | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
I'm fairly comfortable with it, so I'm very happy to go with it. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
And I gather your mum saved your childhood teeth | 0:02:53 | 0:02:57 | |
when they came out and gave them to the Natural History Museum? | 0:02:57 | 0:03:00 | |
Yes, that's right. My mother had a rather off-the-wall sense of humour. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
She heard someone on the radio saying that | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
the Natural History Museum | 0:03:05 | 0:03:06 | |
didn't have a complete set of children's teeth. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:08 | |
So, as mine came out, | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
she saved them up carefully, and the great day came when we went | 0:03:10 | 0:03:12 | |
to South Kensington and presented them to the museum. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:15 | |
And they were put on display, or they laughed? | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
No, I think they are in a drawer somewhere | 0:03:17 | 0:03:20 | |
-in the dusty bowels of the museum. -Brilliant. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:22 | |
Good old mum. OK, well, Food & Drink against Dave, | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
and would you like to go first or second? | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 | |
Here we go. Beer served from a barrel, | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
rather than a bottle or a can, | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
is commonly known by what name? | 0:03:38 | 0:03:39 | |
Well, I'm not a great beer drinker, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
but I've got some friends who are fairly serious beer enthusiasts. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
I suppose hopped beer, hops are in pretty much all beer. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
Widget, I think that's one of those things that puts the fizz into beer. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:57 | |
I think it's draught beer. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
It is draught beer. Mark, well done. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:02 | |
Yes, a point to you. OK, Dave, over to you. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
Your first question, Dave. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
Which of these delicacies is sometimes referred to | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
as black diamonds? | 0:04:10 | 0:04:11 | |
-It's black diamonds, yeah? -Black diamonds. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
I've got to go truffles there, please. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
Truffles is correct. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:21 | |
Back to you, Mark, our lawyer. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
What name is given to the ball-shaped sweet | 0:04:23 | 0:04:25 | |
made principally of flour and sugar that is popular in Indian cuisine? | 0:04:25 | 0:04:30 | |
I should know this, | 0:04:34 | 0:04:35 | |
cos my father grew up in India and is very fond of sweets. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
I don't think it's aloo. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
I was confusing it with jalebis, which are these spiral ones. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:46 | |
I'm not sure, but I think it's pakora. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
-Eggheads, is he right? -It's ladoo. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
Yeah, ladoo. Pakora is a savoury snack. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
Yeah, pakora, says Beth, is a savoury snack, | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
so it's ladoo, Mark. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
And Dave has the chance to take the lead. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
Which of these is a German dish consisting of potato pancakes? | 0:05:03 | 0:05:08 | |
Dave, is it...? | 0:05:08 | 0:05:09 | |
The only jager I associate is... | 0:05:14 | 0:05:18 | |
Landjager is with more alcohol. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
Blutwurst sounds like a blood sausage. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:24 | |
I'm going to go Kartoffelpuffer, please. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |
Lisa, you'll know this with your German background. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
Kartoffel is potato? | 0:05:28 | 0:05:30 | |
-Correct. Yes. -Kartoffelpuffer is the right word. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
OK, back to you, Mark, and you need | 0:05:33 | 0:05:35 | |
to get this one right. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
Alpine Valleys is one of the most visited wine regions | 0:05:37 | 0:05:41 | |
in which country? | 0:05:41 | 0:05:42 | |
I'm thinking of which of those countries might reproduce... | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
..the quality of climate you'd find in the Alpine valleys. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
I'd be inclined to rule out America. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:56 | |
I haven't heard of it. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
Australia I associate more with... | 0:05:58 | 0:06:00 | |
..New World wines and I'm wondering if the name | 0:06:01 | 0:06:03 | |
has a new world colour to it. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
Well, my processes are leading me to South Africa. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:10 | |
I'm not going to get beyond that, so I'm going to say South Africa. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
The answer is Australia. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:17 | |
So, there's no way back for you. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:19 | |
I'm sorry, Mark, you're knocked out. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:22 | |
Dave is in the final and it means the Eggheads are still going to be | 0:06:22 | 0:06:24 | |
sitting there all five of them. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
You've got to knock one out. Please come back, | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
rejoin your teams, we'll play on. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:29 | |
So, as it stands, the Old Dorks have lost one brain from the final round. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
The Eggheads are still all there. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
Just checking. A lot of money that we are playing for, as well. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:38 | |
The next subject is Music. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
Who wants this? | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
-OK. -Team captain? -Well, as always happens, | 0:06:43 | 0:06:45 | |
our music expert has just gone out. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:46 | |
Well, I know, Mark. You love your music, Mark. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:48 | |
-What happened there? -I know, but I thought I knew my food and drink. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
-That's painful. -But I think we have someone else who is going to have a | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
-stab at it. Hugh. -Yeah, I'll give music a go. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
OK. Hugh, you are a student. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:00 | |
-Are you studying music? -I'm studying physics. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:02 | |
You're studying physics. OK. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:03 | |
Who would you like to take on? It can't be Dave. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
-What do you think? -Take on Beth. -OK. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:07 | |
-We'll take on Beth. -We'll take on Beth, please. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:09 | |
Good stuff. So it's going to be Hugh from the Old Dorks versus Beth, | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
the newer of the Eggheads. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
To ensure there is no conferring, please take your positions. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
So your subject, Hugh, is climate physics, is that right? | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
Yes, that's right. So I'm looking at the jet stream for my PhD, | 0:07:22 | 0:07:26 | |
which is this current of air that brings the weather | 0:07:26 | 0:07:28 | |
over the North Atlantic. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:29 | |
I'm looking, basically, at how global warming is affecting | 0:07:29 | 0:07:32 | |
the jet stream and how that will affect the weather | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |
over the UK and Europe. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:36 | |
All right. And is it good news or bad? | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
Well, so I'm just starting my second year, | 0:07:38 | 0:07:40 | |
-so I don't have a whole load of... -Oh, they haven't told you yet? | 0:07:40 | 0:07:43 | |
No, I haven't got any results as such. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
And although the jet stream hasn't got much to do with music, Hugh, | 0:07:45 | 0:07:49 | |
I know you do play the trumpet and you love music yourself. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:52 | |
Yes. So I've played trumpet for, | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
well, since the beginning of high school, really. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
I play in a band - blues and soul and things like that. | 0:07:57 | 0:08:00 | |
Yeah. Brilliant stuff. Well, good luck in this round against Beth. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
Would you like to go first or second? | 0:08:02 | 0:08:04 | |
I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
So, Hugh, here is your first question. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
What is a small extract of music from one recording | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
that is taken and used in another song called? | 0:08:14 | 0:08:17 | |
I'm fairly confident here that a specimen is a more scientific thing. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:26 | |
Again, cross-section, as well. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
So I think I'm going to go for sample. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
-A sample of music. -Sample. I'm going to check with your dad here. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
-John? -Yeah, I think that's right. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
Yeah, he says it's right, and it is right. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
Sample. Well done. A point to you. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
Beth, over to you for your question. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:42 | |
In which city was the pop group Duran Duran formed? | 0:08:42 | 0:08:45 | |
Oh, from those three, it's got to be Birmingham. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
It is indeed Birmingham. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:52 | |
Well done. Simon Le Bon and co. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
All right. Hugh. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
Which musical instrument has the nickname liquorice stick? | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
I haven't heard the nickname liquorice stick. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:07 | |
I'm going to rule out French horn, | 0:09:09 | 0:09:10 | |
because a French horn is more circular shaped. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:14 | |
I think based on... | 0:09:14 | 0:09:15 | |
Liquorice is a black sweet, I think. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
I think, based on that, I'm going to go for clarinet, | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
which is a straight, black instrument. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:23 | |
Yeah, it is what I was forced to play in school, as well. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:25 | |
Clarinet is the right answer. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
Beth, over to you for your question. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
"We ain't no delinquents, we're misunderstood. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:33 | |
"Deep down inside us there is good" | 0:09:33 | 0:09:36 | |
are lyrics from which song in West Side Story? | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
It's certainly not America, | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
cos I sang that when I was at school and I don't remember those lyrics. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:50 | |
Thinking about how the lines would fit, that possibly goes into | 0:09:50 | 0:09:54 | |
Gee, Officer Krupke! | 0:09:54 | 0:09:56 | |
Gee, Officer Krupke! is the right answer. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:59 | |
-Phew! -Well done, you. All right. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:02 | |
Back to you, Hugh. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:03 | |
The 2016 single Rock-a-bye was the second UK number one | 0:10:03 | 0:10:07 | |
for which group? | 0:10:07 | 0:10:08 | |
Oh. These are all bands I know. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:16 | |
I'm fairly confident Mumford and Sons | 0:10:16 | 0:10:18 | |
probably have had more than one number one. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:22 | |
And likewise Florence And The Machine. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
So, by process of elimination, I think I'm going to go Clean Bandit. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
Yeah, you've done well. Clean Bandit it is. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
You've got three out of three. Well done. That trumpet is working. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
Beth, your question, to stay in the contest. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
Opus 74, entitled Four Psalms, | 0:10:37 | 0:10:41 | |
was the final work of which composer born in 1843? | 0:10:41 | 0:10:45 | |
Opus 74. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:52 | |
Opus 74. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:53 | |
Four Psalms. | 0:10:53 | 0:10:55 | |
Certainly in the time of Elgar. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:59 | |
This is a guess, really. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 | |
I'm going to go with Edward Elgar. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:03 | |
-The answer is Edvard Grieg. -Oh. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:04 | |
Sorry, Beth, you're knocked out. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
Well done, Hugh, you are in the final round, | 0:11:06 | 0:11:08 | |
so you've levelled it up there. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
OK, good performance with the climate physics coming in handy. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:14 | |
Yeah, I'm very pleased, very happy. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:16 | |
That worked wonders in the Music round. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:17 | |
Do rejoin your teams and we'll play on. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
So, the Old Dorks have levelled it up. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
They've lost a brain from the final round. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
The Eggheads have also lost a brain. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
We play on, and it's History. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:31 | |
I'm reckoning the Old Dorks are going to be good on this. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:33 | |
-Oh. -Who's the history person? | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
I think that's John. I think John would like to play History, please. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:39 | |
John, OK. Our business journalist. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
Against which Egghead? And it's Pat, Chris, or Lisa. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
I think we'd like to play Chris, please, Jeremy. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
-How do you fancy that, Chris? -Yeah, well, | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
I've been around a lot longer than most people here, so, yeah, | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
I've seen more history, so, yeah, it's my thing. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
So, John, from the Old Dorks, is going to play Chris. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
And, yeah, it is his thing. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
Please take your positions in the Question Room. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:00 | |
John, are you a history fan? | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
Yes, no, I enjoy reading about history | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
-and watching television programmes about it. -Any sorts of periods? | 0:12:06 | 0:12:10 | |
Oh, I think everyone's interested in sort of Tudor era, | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
but also I think I like Russia and China in the 20th century. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:18 | |
And if I had to pin you down on that, Chris, what would you say? | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
Oh, favourite period of history? | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
Probably the later Industrial Revolution. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
The time of Isambard Kingdom Brunel and people of that sort. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
-All the engineers. -All the real engineers, yes. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:31 | |
Brilliant. OK. So, this could be a clash of titans. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:34 | |
It is History. John, would you like to go first or second? | 0:12:34 | 0:12:36 | |
I'll go first, please. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | |
Here is your first question, John. Good luck. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:44 | |
What was the Soviet military force created after the 1917 Revolution | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
by the Communist government called? | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
That's a good question. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
I think the communist colour is always, | 0:12:56 | 0:13:00 | |
of course, referred to as red. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:01 | |
The White Army, I think, was the Cossacks, the anti-revolutionaries. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:07 | |
I think... I'm fairly certain that's the Red Army. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:10 | |
Red Army is the right answer. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:13 | |
Well done. OK, Chris, your question. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:16 | |
Burnham Thorpe in Norfolk was the birthplace | 0:13:16 | 0:13:20 | |
of which British historical figure? | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
Yeah, his father was the vicar at Burnham Thorpe, | 0:13:27 | 0:13:29 | |
and it was Horatio Nelson. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:30 | |
It was indeed. Back to you, John. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:34 | |
Between 1954 and 1962, | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
which African country fought a war of independence against France? | 0:13:36 | 0:13:41 | |
I think I'll rule out South Africa straightaway | 0:13:45 | 0:13:47 | |
because that was Dutch-colonised, the Boers. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
Ethiopia was, I think, more colonised by the Italians... | 0:13:50 | 0:13:54 | |
..in the area of the Mediterranean, so I think Algeria. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:01 | |
Algeria is correct. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:03 | |
Chris, the event known | 0:14:03 | 0:14:05 | |
as the Boston Tea Party took place in which year? | 0:14:05 | 0:14:08 | |
That was in the lead up to the American Revolution, it was 1773. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:17 | |
1773 is the right answer. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
OK, you're steaming along rather nicely, both of you. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
They may get harder. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:24 | |
Your question now, John. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:26 | |
Which British soldier and administrator was described | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
as a heaven-born general by Pitt the Elder? | 0:14:29 | 0:14:33 | |
Well, Wolfe was a general - fought in Canada, but he was killed. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:41 | |
I'm thinking that's probably Clive of India. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
Although I'm not fully certain, but I'd go Robert Clive. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
Let's see if Chris knows. Chris? | 0:14:48 | 0:14:49 | |
Yeah, Clive of India, Plassey. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:51 | |
Robert Clive is right. Three out of three. Well done, Challenger. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:55 | |
Now let's see if you've dislodged | 0:14:55 | 0:14:57 | |
Mr Hughes, which takes some doing. | 0:14:57 | 0:15:00 | |
What type of weapon was the medieval petrary? | 0:15:00 | 0:15:05 | |
Can you spell that, Jeremy? | 0:15:09 | 0:15:10 | |
Petrary. P-E-T-R-A-R-Y. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:14 | |
Ah, petra. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:15 | |
Latin for rock. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:18 | |
A machine for throwing rocks, so it's a catapult. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
Yes, very assured. Catapult is the right answer, well done. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:26 | |
So three out of three, scores are level. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:28 | |
Both know your history, I can tell. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:30 | |
It gets a bit harder now, John, though, | 0:15:30 | 0:15:31 | |
because we don't give you different options. Are you ready? | 0:15:31 | 0:15:35 | |
-I am. -Sudden Death, here we go. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |
Amy Robsart, who supposedly died from falling down the stairs | 0:15:37 | 0:15:42 | |
at her home, was the first wife of | 0:15:42 | 0:15:44 | |
which of Elizabeth I's favourites? | 0:15:44 | 0:15:48 | |
Well, I was going to say... | 0:15:48 | 0:15:49 | |
..Essex, Lord Essex, but that's not a first name for you. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:57 | |
I'm trying to dredge back some Tudor names. | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
Robert Dudley. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
Robert Dudley is your answer. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
It's correct. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:06 | |
JOHN SIGHS, JEREMY LAUGHS | 0:16:06 | 0:16:09 | |
Well, I didn't think you were at the races there at all. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:12 | |
I wasn't, that literally popped into my head at the last moment. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:15 | |
That was remarkable. Well done. Your recall, that's extraordinary. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:20 | |
Let's see if you're knocking out Chris now. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
Chris, you've got to get this right to stay in. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
Which US military leader was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1953 | 0:16:24 | 0:16:29 | |
for his contribution to the economic rehabilitation of Europe? | 0:16:29 | 0:16:34 | |
Well, that was the Marshall Plan, so it'll be General Marshall. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:38 | |
I need a first name and a last name. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:40 | |
Herbert Marshall. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:41 | |
-Herbert Marshall? -Hm. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
George C Marshall or George Marshall is the answer. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
Chris, you've been knocked out by John. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:47 | |
Well played, John. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:49 | |
Thank you. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
So Robert Dudley is now your patron saint? | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
-Yes. -That was brilliant, congratulations to you. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
Bad luck, Chris, you're out of the game. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:58 | |
Come back, rejoin your teams. One more round to play before the final. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:02 | |
So the Old Dorks are doing well, | 0:17:04 | 0:17:06 | |
they've lost one brain from the final round, | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
but the Eggheads have now lost two brains. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:10 | |
And the next subject for you is Arts & Books. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:12 | |
So last subject before the final, who wants this? | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
OK, Mas, you fancy taking that? | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
Mas will take that, please, Jeremy. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:18 | |
OK, Mas, our semi-retired IT consultant. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:21 | |
You've got Lisa or... I think | 0:17:21 | 0:17:23 | |
I would call you an IT consultant, Pat. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:25 | |
-I've been called worse. -I think that's his kind of thing. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:28 | |
So you could decide whether you have a soul mate or... | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
-Lisa? -Lisa, please, Jeremy. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:33 | |
That's the way my husband played it, | 0:17:33 | 0:17:35 | |
"Shall I go for a soul mate or Lisa?" | 0:17:35 | 0:17:37 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
Mas from the Old Dorks versus Lisa from the Eggheads. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:43 | |
To ensure there's no conferring, | 0:17:43 | 0:17:44 | |
please, for the last time, go to our Question Room. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
All right, Mas, Arts & Books against Lisa, | 0:17:49 | 0:17:51 | |
and would you like to go first or second? | 0:17:51 | 0:17:52 | |
I would like to go first. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
So here is your first question, Mas. | 0:17:57 | 0:17:59 | |
Who is the captain of the submarine Nautilus in the book | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
20,000 Leagues Under The Sea? | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
It's not Nemo. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:11 | |
I'd like to go with Captain Flint. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:17 | |
Captain Flint is the wrong answer. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:20 | |
Lisa help me with Captain Flint, where is he from? | 0:18:20 | 0:18:22 | |
He's not actually human - he's Treasure Island, he's a parrot. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:25 | |
He's a parrot. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
So the submarine would have been in a lot of trouble. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
Nemo it was, Mas. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:31 | |
And, Lisa, your question. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:33 | |
Which John Betjeman poem | 0:18:33 | 0:18:34 | |
features the lines, | 0:18:34 | 0:18:36 | |
"Come, bombs, and blow to smithereens, | 0:18:36 | 0:18:38 | |
"those air-conditioned bright canteens, | 0:18:38 | 0:18:41 | |
"tinned fruits, tinned meat, | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
"tinned milk, tinned beans?" | 0:18:43 | 0:18:44 | |
It seems to fit in with | 0:18:50 | 0:18:51 | |
"Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Slough." | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |
Unless he wrote a lot of poems like that, I better go with Slough. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:58 | |
Anyone else know here? | 0:18:58 | 0:18:59 | |
Eggheads? Slough is the answer. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:02 | |
Yeah. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:03 | |
OK, Mas. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:04 | |
Bruce Bogtrotter is a character in which Roald Dahl book? | 0:19:05 | 0:19:09 | |
I'd like to go with The Witches. | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
Anyone here on the Challengers' side know their Roald Dahl? | 0:19:16 | 0:19:19 | |
-No. -It sounds like a Roald Dahl character, that's for sure. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:21 | |
I would say not to Matilda, but I'm not sure between the other two. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:24 | |
Now, interestingly, it is Matilda. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:26 | |
-Oh, right. -It is Matilda. -Matilda is the answer, Mas. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:29 | |
We've got to hope now Lisa gets this one wrong, | 0:19:29 | 0:19:31 | |
or she's through to the final. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:32 | |
The historical region of Kafiristan | 0:19:32 | 0:19:36 | |
is the setting for which 1888 work by Rudyard Kipling? | 0:19:36 | 0:19:40 | |
Don't know enough about The Man Who Would Be King | 0:19:46 | 0:19:48 | |
or Rikki-Tikki-Tavi. That's hard. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:50 | |
I suppose it could be either. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
Let's hedge my bets and go for The Man Who Would Be King. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:57 | |
The Man Who Would Be King is the correct answer, Lisa. | 0:19:57 | 0:20:00 | |
Well done, a bit of handy elimination there, worked for you. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:03 | |
I'm sorry, Mas. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:05 | |
It didn't quite break for you there, did it? | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
-But... -My weakest subject, that was. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
Still hope for your team. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
Please return to us. We will play the final round. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |
So this is what we have been playing towards. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
It is time for the final round, | 0:20:17 | 0:20:19 | |
which, as always, is General Knowledge. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:21 | |
But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
to take part in this round. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:25 | |
So that's Mas and Mark from the Old Dorks, | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
and also Chris and Beth from the Eggheads. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
Would you please now leave the studio? | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
All right, Kevin, John, Hugh, | 0:20:34 | 0:20:35 | |
you're playing to win the Old Dorks £26,000. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
We don't often get the jackpot this high. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:41 | |
Lisa, Dave and Pat, you're playing to stop them. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:44 | |
You're playing to add to the jackpot and your incredible reputation. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:48 | |
As usual, I'm going to ask each team three questions in turn. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:51 | |
Gentlemen, they are all general knowledge and you can confer. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:55 | |
So, Old Dorks, the question is, | 0:20:55 | 0:20:57 | |
are your three brains able to defeat these three in a famous victory? | 0:20:57 | 0:21:01 | |
Kevin, John, Hugh, do you want to go first or second? | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
We'll go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:05 | |
Good luck. Playing for £26,000, here. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:11 | |
Which British slang word for a prison | 0:21:11 | 0:21:14 | |
comes from the Hindi for a shed or a lock-up? | 0:21:14 | 0:21:18 | |
So, what's the thoughts, boys? | 0:21:22 | 0:21:24 | |
On the three alternatives. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:25 | |
It's coming from an Indian slang word. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:28 | |
I think nick is a UK version for... | 0:21:28 | 0:21:31 | |
-Just being pinched. -Yes, stolen. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:34 | |
Slammer sounds like an American word to do with the door, | 0:21:34 | 0:21:37 | |
-the prison door slamming. -Yes. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:39 | |
So I'm leaning towards chokey, which sounds kind of Indian, but... | 0:21:39 | 0:21:42 | |
-Any thoughts? -Yeah, I think that would be my option. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:45 | |
-Yes. -We're not 100% sure, Jeremy, | 0:21:46 | 0:21:48 | |
but we'll go with chokey. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
Chokey is quite right, well done. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
A Hindi word. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
Eggheads, which actor plays the role | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
of Steve Wozniak in the Danny Boyle film Steve Jobs? | 0:21:56 | 0:22:00 | |
Of the three, Seth Rogen | 0:22:04 | 0:22:06 | |
looks most like Steve Wozniak. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
-OK. -I'm fairly certain he was in it. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:10 | |
-Oh, right, so. -Just trying to narrow it down for the other two, | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
just in case it is Jonah Hill, but I don't think it is. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
-No. -I don't think Franco was anywhere near it. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
Steve Wozniak is kind of a bear of a man. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:19 | |
-Yeah. -I mean, obviously, | 0:22:19 | 0:22:20 | |
with make-up, they can turn anybody into anybody, but without make-up, | 0:22:20 | 0:22:24 | |
Seth Rogen is the most... | 0:22:24 | 0:22:27 | |
the most similar in appearance. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:29 | |
You, you'd be unlikely to cast Franco and you might think twice | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
about casting Jonah Hill, if you couldn't get Seth Rogen. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:34 | |
So maybe... I'm for that if you can see a physical resemblance. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:37 | |
-OK. -And you're happy? -And I've got an inkling on the casting. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:40 | |
Yeah. So you're happy that Rogen's in the film? | 0:22:40 | 0:22:42 | |
-I think so, yeah. -OK. -OK, we'll go with that? | 0:22:42 | 0:22:44 | |
-Yeah, do that. -Try that. -That's all. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:46 | |
-Yeah. -We're going to go with Seth Rogen. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:48 | |
Seth Rogen is correct. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
-Well done. -Well done, Pat, especially, there. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:52 | |
Good quizzing by these Eggheads, then. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
They are in great form at the moment, but the upside is, | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
the jackpot is high. | 0:22:57 | 0:22:58 | |
26,000. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
Your second question. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:01 | |
Which of these Caribbean states | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
celebrated the 50th anniversary of its independence | 0:23:03 | 0:23:08 | |
from the UK in 2016? | 0:23:08 | 0:23:10 | |
-OK, thoughts, chaps? -Well... -Haiti. | 0:23:13 | 0:23:15 | |
-Rule out Haiti. -Haiti wasn't a British colony, I don't think. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:19 | |
So it would be like, 1966? | 0:23:19 | 0:23:22 | |
1966, independence? | 0:23:22 | 0:23:24 | |
I'm leaning towards Jamaica, but I don't know. | 0:23:24 | 0:23:26 | |
-You think Barbados? -I think... | 0:23:26 | 0:23:28 | |
Barbados. Cos they are smaller, maybe. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:30 | |
Your instinct is Barbados? | 0:23:31 | 0:23:33 | |
-I don't have a strong view either way. -Yeah, I'd go Barbados. | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
I think, | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
in the absence of any clarity, we'll go for Barbados. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:41 | |
So Barbados was 1966, absolutely right, well done. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:44 | |
The 50th anniversary in 2016. | 0:23:44 | 0:23:47 | |
Two out of two for our Challengers. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:49 | |
They are ahead. Playing for 26,000. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
Here is your question, Eggheads. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:53 | |
What English name is given to the character | 0:23:53 | 0:23:56 | |
written beneath the letter C in French | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
to signify that it should be pronounced softly, as an S, | 0:23:58 | 0:24:03 | |
rather than as a hard K? | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
Cedilla. Isn't it? | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
-We're happy with cedilla? -Yeah, like where you have garcon. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:15 | |
And I think both circumflex and grave are above... | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
-Circumflex is like that. -One of those. -And then grave is that way. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:20 | |
And we were told... He said beneath, didn't he? | 0:24:20 | 0:24:22 | |
-Yeah, he did say beneath. -Quite right. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
But it is definitely a cedilla. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:25 | |
-Cedilla? -Cedilla, yeah. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
We're going with cedilla. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:29 | |
Cedilla is right. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:30 | |
Ooh, it's hotting up in here! | 0:24:30 | 0:24:32 | |
-Are you feeling it? -We are. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:34 | |
£26,000, we're playing for. | 0:24:34 | 0:24:36 | |
You may just be one question away. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:38 | |
Here is your third. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:40 | |
What name is given to the microscopic openings in the | 0:24:40 | 0:24:44 | |
epidermis of leaves or young stems? | 0:24:44 | 0:24:47 | |
-Any thoughts, gentlemen? -Gut instinct is stomata. | 0:24:53 | 0:24:56 | |
-Yeah. -But I couldn't tell you why. | 0:24:56 | 0:24:58 | |
I think xylem is the stem. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:00 | |
Yeah, the tube. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:02 | |
I don't know why, when the answers first came up, | 0:25:02 | 0:25:04 | |
I was thinking stomata as well, but I could be totally just... | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
-Yeah, that would be my... -We'll go with that. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:09 | |
Yeah, I think on the basis of a gut instinct more than science, | 0:25:09 | 0:25:13 | |
we'll go for stomata, Jeremy. | 0:25:13 | 0:25:16 | |
Stomata is the right answer. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:18 | |
Three out of three, playing really well. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:20 | |
You may not need to do any more work today. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:22 | |
-That'd be nice. -Let us see. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:24 | |
And if you get this wrong, Eggheads, | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
the jackpot is theirs and we go all the way back down to £1,000. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:32 | |
Eggs, what nickname was given to the World War II bomber | 0:25:32 | 0:25:36 | |
the Handley Page Hampton? | 0:25:36 | 0:25:38 | |
Here's where Chris would come in useful. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:46 | |
I've heard of the Flying Bedstead, | 0:25:46 | 0:25:47 | |
but I'm slightly concerned it was one of | 0:25:47 | 0:25:49 | |
those experimental... | 0:25:49 | 0:25:50 | |
-Yeah. -..hovering gizmos. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:53 | |
I mean, obviously, | 0:25:53 | 0:25:55 | |
the name could have been used twice. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:57 | |
-Yes. -You know, the early, sort of, jet pack. | 0:25:57 | 0:26:00 | |
Yeah. I'm not rushing in, | 0:26:00 | 0:26:02 | |
but I'm going to really look at the other two. | 0:26:02 | 0:26:07 | |
I would have gone the Bedstead. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:08 | |
It's just, I mean, the contraption | 0:26:08 | 0:26:10 | |
was an extraordinary-looking thing. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:12 | |
It didn't look like an aeroplane. That's why they called it... | 0:26:12 | 0:26:14 | |
It looked like an old, brass bed with rockets. | 0:26:14 | 0:26:17 | |
-Yeah. -So it's, it's not the most obvious name for a bomber. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
Bombers are big, heavy, lumbering things. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
Suitcase? Because it's full of bombs? | 0:26:22 | 0:26:24 | |
No? They just pack it full of bombs, it takes off and drops them? | 0:26:24 | 0:26:28 | |
Bath Tub would be just its general fuselage shape. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
If it was a seaplane, then Bath Tub might make a bit more sense. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:35 | |
I don't know. Well, we are at sea, here. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
Cos, I mean, if we're going the other two... | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |
-We are on... -..we're on a wing and a prayer, aren't we? | 0:26:39 | 0:26:41 | |
Wing and a prayer, sorry! | 0:26:41 | 0:26:43 | |
We are struggling to find any sort of aircraft at all that was named | 0:26:43 | 0:26:46 | |
after those things, but both of you could think of an aircraft | 0:26:46 | 0:26:48 | |
with a bedstead attached to it. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:50 | |
-Bedstead. -Yeah. -So I'm... | 0:26:50 | 0:26:51 | |
And a suitcase full of bombs, no? | 0:26:51 | 0:26:52 | |
-No. It could be, but... I've never heard of it. -Logistically, if you | 0:26:52 | 0:26:56 | |
haven't got a plane idea to attach to it, | 0:26:56 | 0:26:58 | |
I think you're going to have to go with Bedstead, | 0:26:58 | 0:27:00 | |
-because you have got an idea. -Yeah, we have, that's the best one. | 0:27:00 | 0:27:03 | |
Well, it does exist as a phrase. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:04 | |
Whether it existed twice, | 0:27:04 | 0:27:06 | |
for the experimental gizmo and for a proper bomber... | 0:27:06 | 0:27:08 | |
It's entirely possible... | 0:27:08 | 0:27:09 | |
-It could have done. -..that it is a different plane, | 0:27:09 | 0:27:12 | |
-but I don't think we've got anything better to gone. -No. -OK. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:14 | |
All right. Sorry about that, Pat. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:15 | |
-So we're going for Bedstead? -Yeah, Bedstead, yes. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:17 | |
-Go on. -Sorry, mate. -OK, we're in serious trouble, here. | 0:27:17 | 0:27:20 | |
There was an experimental contraption, definitely, | 0:27:20 | 0:27:22 | |
called the Flying Bedstead, | 0:27:22 | 0:27:23 | |
which looked nothing like an aeroplane at all, | 0:27:23 | 0:27:25 | |
but nonetheless, Flying Bedstead is a phrase that we have heard. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:29 | |
-Erm, so, we are in trouble. We're going for Bedstead? -Yeah. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:33 | |
We're going for Flying Bedstead, and with great trepidation. | 0:27:33 | 0:27:36 | |
I'm wondering if we should take this to Chris. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
-We're going to have to. -OK, Chris, you've got it, | 0:27:38 | 0:27:40 | |
just don't say it too quickly, there's a lot at stake. | 0:27:40 | 0:27:42 | |
This is over to you. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:44 | |
In one word, is it the Flying Bedstead? | 0:27:44 | 0:27:46 | |
-No. -What is it? | 0:27:46 | 0:27:48 | |
It's the Flying Suitcase! | 0:27:48 | 0:27:50 | |
We say congratulations, Challengers. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:52 | |
You have won! | 0:27:52 | 0:27:53 | |
Thank you. Thanks very much. Thank you. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:56 | |
JEREMY LAUGHS | 0:27:56 | 0:27:59 | |
And I know, dear Chris, | 0:27:59 | 0:28:00 | |
that in your sleep, you would have got that right. | 0:28:00 | 0:28:03 | |
-Yeah. -It was called the Suitcase, by the way, | 0:28:03 | 0:28:05 | |
cos it had very cramped crew conditions, | 0:28:05 | 0:28:07 | |
so it was quite a bog-standard reason for a nickname, you know? | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
There we are. You knock out Chris, | 0:28:10 | 0:28:12 | |
it doesn't seem significant at the time. | 0:28:12 | 0:28:13 | |
Chris knows the answer. | 0:28:13 | 0:28:15 | |
Therefore, the Eggheads are stopped in their tracks. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
And we say congratulations, Challengers. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:19 | |
You've done really well. You've won £26,000. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:21 | |
We haven't had a jackpot that big for a long time! | 0:28:21 | 0:28:23 | |
And you can say you are officially cleverer | 0:28:23 | 0:28:25 | |
than the Eggheads over here. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:27 | |
You've proved, certainly, that they can be beaten. | 0:28:27 | 0:28:29 | |
Eggheads, you played well at the end, there. | 0:28:29 | 0:28:31 | |
I mean, you were really truffling, | 0:28:31 | 0:28:32 | |
you just got to the wrong answer and it's ended your run | 0:28:32 | 0:28:35 | |
in the most dramatic way. | 0:28:35 | 0:28:37 | |
Well, join us next time on Eggheads | 0:28:37 | 0:28:39 | |
to see if a new team of Challengers will be just as successful. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:42 | |
Till then, goodbye. | 0:28:42 | 0:28:43 |
