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 pit
0:00:26 > 0:00:30their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:33Going to cast a spell today, Eggs?
0:00:33 > 0:00:35- EGGS:- Hopefully.- Well, let's see,
0:00:35 > 0:00:38because hoping to get one over on our quiz champions
0:00:38 > 0:00:40are The Egg Bags from West Yorkshire.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43Now, this team are all members of Merlin's Magic Club,
0:00:43 > 0:00:47which meets monthly at a magic shop in Wakefield.
0:00:47 > 0:00:48Let's meet them.
0:00:48 > 0:00:49Hello, my name's Bob,
0:00:49 > 0:00:52I'm a fleet driver and a part-time magician.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Hello, my name's Darren and I'm a magician.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hello, I'm Kim and I'm an IT adviser.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01Hello, I'm Phil, I'm a magician and a magic dealer.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Mark and I'm a magician and a magic dealer.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05So, Bob and team, hello.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08- ALL:- Hello.- Great to see you, thanks so much for coming in.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10And I should ask why you have the name The Egg Bags?
0:01:10 > 0:01:13Well, the egg bag trick is one of the oldest tricks in magic.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Maybe we can show you?
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- Love you to.- First thing we'll need is an egg.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Oh, sorry about that, Daz.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27- We've got a red hanky. - Um, that's not really much use.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Handkerchief is not much use to anybody.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31It's not even the right colour.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32Maybe we could do something about that.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36If I take the handkerchief, we can change it from a red handkerchief,
0:01:36 > 0:01:38all the way into...
0:01:40 > 0:01:42- Oh, I love that! - ..a white handkerchief.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Oh, er... Well, Darren, I mean, it's
0:01:44 > 0:01:46all well and good but, you know,
0:01:46 > 0:01:50a handkerchief is not really
0:01:50 > 0:01:52much use for the egg bag trick.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54What we really need...
0:01:55 > 0:01:56- ..is an egg.- Oh! EGGHEAD:- Ohh!
0:01:56 > 0:01:59So, this is the egg bag that we're talking about.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00So, the egg goes in there...
0:02:00 > 0:02:01- Yeah?- ..and instantly...
0:02:03 > 0:02:04..disappears.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08- Oh.- So, now we've vanished it, we need to make it reappear.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12To be honest, Phil, I'm not that keen on eggs.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- No?- But I do like...
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- An eggnog.- Really?- Cheers, Jeremy. - Oh, wow.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Cheers!
0:02:21 > 0:02:22And you've all got one.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- EGGHEAD:- That was so clever. - How do you do that?
0:02:26 > 0:02:28That's the one thing you can't ask, "How do they do it?"
0:02:28 > 0:02:30I don't know, it's proper magic, Judith.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Thank you, well... I don't even want to ask if you quiz as well as
0:02:33 > 0:02:35doing magic, because it's doesn't really matter.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Because if you get into trouble here, you just make them disappear.
0:02:37 > 0:02:42Once a year, we have a magic quiz at Merlin's Magic Shop in Wakefield.
0:02:42 > 0:02:43It sounds like a fantastic shop.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Is it somewhere you go a lot?
0:02:45 > 0:02:50We meet there once a month, and swap a few ideas, a few tricks.
0:02:50 > 0:02:51We usually have a theme.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54And it usually ends up with everybody taking the Mickey
0:02:54 > 0:02:56- out of Phil.- Yes, that's me!
0:02:56 > 0:02:58It's been open for 22 years.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00I've been going since I was eight years old.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Oh, how brilliant. Every town, every high street needs a magic shop.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06- They do.- Doesn't it? Well, good luck, Challengers.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12However, if the challenging team fails to win that prize money,
0:03:12 > 0:03:14it rolls over to the next show.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18So, Egg Bags, the Eggheads have won the last four games.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21So, £5,000 is here for you to play for.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Now, the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28It's one of you against either Dave, Steve, Beth, Kevin or Judith.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31- OK, that was yours, wasn't it? - I think you should.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33- You think I should? - I think you should.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Straight into it, Bob. - Captain's going straight in.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39The captain goes in, that's a big moment.
0:03:39 > 0:03:40So, against which Egghead?
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Any one of the five.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44I think I'm going to go for Judith.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46You're going to be his magical assistant.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50- Yes!- Bob from the Egg Bags versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:03:50 > 0:03:51Certain symmetry here.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54Please for the first time go to our legendary Question Room.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Bob, how did you first get into the magic?
0:03:58 > 0:04:01I started quite a while ago.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04I used to work with kids with behavioural problems.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08And I found it a very useful tool to distract the kids.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11And it just went from there, I've been doing it ever since.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14All right, let's see what you can do in this round.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Music is the subject, you're up against Judith,
0:04:16 > 0:04:17would you like to go first or second?
0:04:17 > 0:04:19I'll go first, please.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Here we go. Which of these composers was born first?
0:04:31 > 0:04:36OK, I think Edward Elgar was probably the younger of the three.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Verdi and Mozart,
0:04:38 > 0:04:42I'm going to say that the one that was born first was probably
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48You are absolutely right, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is correct.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51We have Kevin here, so Kevin, when was Mozart born?
0:04:51 > 0:04:521756.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55- Verdi?- 1813.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57- Elgar?- 1857.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- Amazing, isn't it?- It is amazing. - It's magic!
0:05:00 > 0:05:02No preparation, he didn't know that was coming.
0:05:02 > 0:05:03OK, Judith -
0:05:03 > 0:05:05"Drinking in the morning sun
0:05:05 > 0:05:07"Blinking in the morning sun
0:05:07 > 0:05:08"Shaking off a heavy one
0:05:08 > 0:05:11"Heavy like a loaded gun"
0:05:11 > 0:05:14are the opening lines to which song by Elbow?
0:05:18 > 0:05:22Well, I'm trying to match the words to the title.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26And I think the most likely is One Day Like This.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29You've got it absolutely right, One Day Like This.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Well done, Judith.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33OK, Bob. Promised You A Miracle,
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Waterfront and Alive And Kicking
0:05:35 > 0:05:38were UK top 20 hits in the 1980s by which band?
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Yeah, I remember this back in the '80s.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Not a song that U2 or Depeche Mode would have sung.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50I Think it Was Simple Minds.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Simple Minds is right. Well done.
0:05:53 > 0:05:58Judith, Armando Christian Perez is the real name of which rapper?
0:06:01 > 0:06:05I've absolutely not the first clue.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08- Flo Rida.- Flo Rida it's pronounced.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Well, Florida.
0:06:11 > 0:06:12Yeah. Not a Flo Rida fan?
0:06:12 > 0:06:14The answer is Pitbull.
0:06:14 > 0:06:15Mm-hm.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17All right, Bob. You're ahead.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Get this one right and you'll be in the final round.
0:06:20 > 0:06:21Here we go.
0:06:21 > 0:06:2524 Karat Magic is a 2016 UK hit single by which singer?
0:06:29 > 0:06:30I've no idea.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32That's typical, isn't it?
0:06:32 > 0:06:3324 Karat Magic.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Which is K-A-R-A-T.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Um, I'm just going to have to plump for Bruno Mars.
0:06:43 > 0:06:44- It is Bruno Mars, well done.- Yes!
0:06:44 > 0:06:47You've got it, you've got three in a row. And you've beaten Judith.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Sorry, Judith, that's another sticky end on Music.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52So, Bob, you've taken on an Egghead, you've emerged triumphant.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54A very, very good start for our Challengers.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Please return to us and we'll play on.
0:06:58 > 0:06:59So, good start for the Egg Bags.
0:06:59 > 0:07:03They have not lost any brains, the Eggheads have lost Judith.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05And the next subject for you is Geography.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07Who would like this? Which Egg Bag?
0:07:07 > 0:07:09Geography, lads. Who's up for it?
0:07:09 > 0:07:11- Can I?- Kim?
0:07:11 > 0:07:14- Yeah, I'll go for that.- Kim's going to have a bash at Geography.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17OK, Kim, our IT adviser and magician, against which Egghead?
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Anyone but Judith.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21I've got no idea, shall we go Steve?
0:07:21 > 0:07:23- If you like. - Yeah, I'll go with Steve, please.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27Kim from the Egg Bags taking on Steve from the Eggheads.
0:07:27 > 0:07:28Please go to the Question Room.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Kim, as well as magic, you do IT?
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Yes, that's right, Jeremy, I'm an IT adviser.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Which is magic for the modern age, I guess?
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- Yes, very much so!- Most of us have not got a clue how that works.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- Yes.- All right, so we're on Geography here.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Would you like to go first or second?
0:07:43 > 0:07:45I think I'd like to go second, please, Jeremy.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51- OK, Steve, are you ready?- Got to be!
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Got to be. No alternative.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57The Eiger is a famous peak in which mountain range, Steve?
0:08:01 > 0:08:02That's the Alps, Jeremy.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04The Alps is correct.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08Over to you, Kim. What is the official currency of South Africa?
0:08:10 > 0:08:13So, that would be the rand.
0:08:13 > 0:08:14The rand is right.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Steve, Wilsons Promontory,
0:08:18 > 0:08:21the southernmost point of the Australian mainland,
0:08:21 > 0:08:23lies in which state?
0:08:26 > 0:08:31I'm not 100% with this, but I think it's Victoria.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33So, that's my answer.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36- Dave is nodding.- Yeah, Victoria.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Yeah, Victoria is right.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40OK, to catch up, Kim, your question.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42The Grand Ballon, or the...
0:08:42 > 0:08:44FRENCH ACCENT "Grand Ballon"
0:08:44 > 0:08:46is the highest mountain in which French range close to
0:08:46 > 0:08:48the German border?
0:08:54 > 0:08:59So, I think the Pyrenees is in that direction,
0:08:59 > 0:09:02so I'm going to go with the Pyrenees, please, Jeremy.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06The answer is the Vosges Mountains.
0:09:06 > 0:09:10All right, Steve has the advantage and because you went first, Steve,
0:09:10 > 0:09:11you can end the round with this answer.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14The towns of Narvik and Hammerfest,
0:09:14 > 0:09:16both north of the Arctic Circle,
0:09:16 > 0:09:17are in which country?
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Hopefully, that's Norway, Jeremy.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Yes, it is Norway. How do you know that?
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Obviously, I've read it and I've remembered it.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Like so many things. Sorry, Kim.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32- No problem. - Beaten by our Egghead there.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Always the danger of going second, gives him the initiative slightly.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37So, Steve is in the final round, Kim is knocked out.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Return to us, we'll play round three.
0:09:40 > 0:09:41Tight contest, it's even now,
0:09:41 > 0:09:43the Egg Bags have lost one brain from the final round,
0:09:43 > 0:09:47the Eggheads have lost one as well and we play on with History.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Who's history? Mark?
0:09:50 > 0:09:51Mark, do you fancy that?
0:09:51 > 0:09:52- Take one for the team?- Yes.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53Mark's going to take on History.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55OK, Mark at the end.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58Magician and magic dealer, who do you want to deal to?
0:09:58 > 0:09:59Dave, Beth or Kevin?
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Up to you, Mark. Take your pick.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03I'll go for Beth, please, Jeremy.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05So, Mark from the Egg Bags, Beth from the Eggheads,
0:10:05 > 0:10:09please go to the Question Room to face your History questions.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Mark, you're a fascinating team, I must say.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15You used to teach Dynamo magic tricks?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Yes, we've run an academy for ten to 16-year-olds
0:10:18 > 0:10:19for the last 18 years,
0:10:19 > 0:10:22and Dynamo is probably one of the most famous, if not the most famous,
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- yes.- Very cool.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27OK, against Beth, you're on history, Mark.
0:10:27 > 0:10:28Would you like to go first or second?
0:10:28 > 0:10:30I think I'll go second, Jeremy, please.
0:10:34 > 0:10:35Beth, your first question.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37What name was given to the leaders of the
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Spanish soldiers and sailors
0:10:39 > 0:10:41who conquered large parts of the Americas
0:10:41 > 0:10:43in the 16th century?
0:10:46 > 0:10:50Er... They were conquistadors.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Conquistador is right.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Over to you, Mark. In World War II, what was flak?
0:10:59 > 0:11:03- Flak, F-L-A-K.- F-L-A-K.
0:11:03 > 0:11:04I'll go anti-aircraft fire.
0:11:04 > 0:11:08Yeah, absolutely, as in, "He came under a lot of flak."
0:11:08 > 0:11:09It's gone into the language.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10Anti-aircraft fire is right.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Beth, Queen Anne,
0:11:12 > 0:11:14who reigned from 1702-1714
0:11:14 > 0:11:18was the niece of which other English monarch?
0:11:21 > 0:11:25Oh, this is where I've got to do my kings and queens.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Um, I have Horrible Histories
0:11:27 > 0:11:30to thank for my knowing the order of kings and queens.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Anne, so she came before George.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38So, it must be Charles II.
0:11:38 > 0:11:39Charles II is right, well done.
0:11:41 > 0:11:42So, we go back to you, Mark.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44What was the first name of the mother
0:11:44 > 0:11:49of the women's rights campaigners Christabel and Sylvia Pankhurst?
0:11:53 > 0:11:57Don't instinctively know this one, so...
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Um, I'm drawn towards Albertina.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02I don't really know why, but I'll go Albertina.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08It's actually... Emmeline is the most famous one and it's her.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Emmeline, Emmeline Pankhurst.
0:12:12 > 0:12:13OK, Beth.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Powered aircraft were first used
0:12:16 > 0:12:18in war in 1911 by which country
0:12:18 > 0:12:19against the Turks?
0:12:22 > 0:12:24Powered aircraft...
0:12:24 > 0:12:27Now, I'm not sure whether Italy and Spain would have quite had the
0:12:27 > 0:12:28engineering powers.
0:12:28 > 0:12:33So, I'll have to go with the percentage guess of Germany.
0:12:33 > 0:12:34Let's see, Eggheads, do we know?
0:12:34 > 0:12:36It's Italy.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39- Italy. - Italy wanted colonial territory
0:12:39 > 0:12:42and one of its targets was Libya,
0:12:42 > 0:12:45which at that time was loosely under the control of the Ottoman Empire.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49So, they went to war with the Ottomans and for the first time,
0:12:49 > 0:12:51planes were used to drop bombs.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53They would literally reach out of the cockpit
0:12:53 > 0:12:57and drop bombs against some of the tribal characters below.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01But it was a brief war, but it was Italy against the Ottomans.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03- OK, Italy is the answer.- Oh, well.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06So, you have a chance here to come back,
0:13:06 > 0:13:08but you need to get this one right, Mark.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Which Scottish king was assassinated by a group of
0:13:11 > 0:13:17conspirators, led by Walter Stewart, Earl of Atholl in 1437?
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Balliol I've never really heard of.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30I'm going with the Scottish lean, so I'll go with Robert the Bruce.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34It's actually James I.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38Mark, sorry. Beth is in the final round, and you've been knocked out.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40So, come back to us, both of you.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42One more round to play before the final for £5,000.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46So, the Eggheads fighting back against the Egg Bags,
0:13:46 > 0:13:49who've now lost two brains from the final round,
0:13:49 > 0:13:51the Eggheads have just lost Judith.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54And one more round before the final, it's sport.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- Who would like this?- Darren.- Darren.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01Yes, I'll take that one, please, Jeremy.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02OK, going to be Darren. Which Egghead?
0:14:02 > 0:14:04You can have either Kevin or Dave.
0:14:04 > 0:14:05- Try Kevin.- Go for it.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07I'm going to try and take on Kevin.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10All right, Darren from the Egg Bags taking on Kevin from the Eggheads on
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Sport. Let's see what happens here.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Take your positions, please.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17OK, so we're on sport, Darren.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19- First or second? - I'll go first, please.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26And good luck. Aside from the floor and any ceiling,
0:14:26 > 0:14:29how many walls does a squash court have?
0:14:32 > 0:14:34So, it has a wall at the front,
0:14:34 > 0:14:39two sidewalls and the back wall is glass.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42I'm going to say four.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Four is right, yeah.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Back wall counts, because you can bounce the ball off it.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50Kevin, who was named captain of the British and Irish Lions
0:14:50 > 0:14:52for the second time in 2017?
0:14:56 > 0:14:58That was Sam Warburton.
0:14:58 > 0:14:59Sam Warburton is right.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01One each.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03And we go back to you, Darren.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06Vancouver and which other Canadian city have hosted
0:15:06 > 0:15:08the Winter Olympic Games?
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Not 100% sure on this one.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17I think possibly there is a reference
0:15:17 > 0:15:20to this in Cool Runnings and it could be Calgary.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22So, I'm going to say Calgary.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Nicely done, Calgary is correct, two out of two.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Playing well.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29Kevin, the New Zealander Kane Williamson
0:15:29 > 0:15:31is a leading name in which sport?
0:15:34 > 0:15:38Well, I think that he has actually captained the New Zealand
0:15:38 > 0:15:40cricket team.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42So, cricket.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44Cricket is correct, Kane Williamson.
0:15:44 > 0:15:472-2, very tight!
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Moving along briskly here.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Darren, third question could be crucial.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54Which snooker player, a 150-1 outsider,
0:15:54 > 0:15:59beat Steve Davis in the final of the 1986 World Championship
0:15:59 > 0:16:00at the Crucible?
0:16:04 > 0:16:07Um, I believe this gentleman is from
0:16:07 > 0:16:09pretty close to where we live,
0:16:09 > 0:16:12and I think that the answer...
0:16:13 > 0:16:15I think Dennis Taylor was 1985,
0:16:15 > 0:16:18I think the answer for '86 was Joe Johnson.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20That's a very good quizzing, because Dennis Taylor,
0:16:20 > 0:16:22that final was a very famous one, wasn't it?
0:16:22 > 0:16:24I remember sitting watching it at university.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27But that was the year before, Joe Johnson is the right answer.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29Well done, three out of three.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Perfect so far. Kevin, to stay in.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35Which American heavyweight world champion of the 1930s
0:16:35 > 0:16:37was known by the nickname Cinderella Man?
0:16:41 > 0:16:43And I think there was a...
0:16:43 > 0:16:45I think that was the title of the film,
0:16:45 > 0:16:47there was a film made which starred,
0:16:47 > 0:16:49I believe, Russell Crowe as this man.
0:16:49 > 0:16:54Known as Cinderella Man because his career had appeared to be over.
0:16:54 > 0:16:55And then he got a shot,
0:16:55 > 0:16:57a chance to get the title and he
0:16:57 > 0:17:01took it and briefly became world champion again.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03And it's James Braddock.
0:17:03 > 0:17:04Let me check with Beth, who likes her boxing.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Is it, is he right?
0:17:06 > 0:17:08- Yeah, James Braddock.- James Braddock is the correct answer,
0:17:08 > 0:17:11so three questions each we've had, the scores are level.
0:17:11 > 0:17:12We go to Sudden Death.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14And, Darren, it gets a little bit
0:17:14 > 0:17:15harder now because I don't give you options,
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Don't give you alternatives.
0:17:17 > 0:17:22Here we go. The 1975 boxing match known as the Thrilla in Manila
0:17:22 > 0:17:24took place in which country?
0:17:24 > 0:17:25Is that the Philippines?
0:17:25 > 0:17:27It is the Philippines!
0:17:27 > 0:17:30It's a funny old question, it is like saying where is Manila?
0:17:30 > 0:17:33It's nothing to do with boxing, that question.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35The Philippines is the right answer.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38All right, Kevin, in 2001,
0:17:38 > 0:17:43the Romanian gymnast Nadia Comaneci became a citizen of which other
0:17:43 > 0:17:47country, to which she had defected in 1989?
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Well, I believe she moved to the USA
0:17:50 > 0:17:54to work and coach and that, and she still
0:17:54 > 0:17:57is a commentator on gymnastics and various other things.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59So, I think the USA.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01USA is correct, well done.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Sudden Death, back to you, Darren.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Who was the manager of Leicester City in their 2015-2016
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Premier League winning season?
0:18:08 > 0:18:12Um, the Tinkerman, Claudio Ranieri.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Claudio Ranieri is the right answer.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16So, Claudio Ranieri is right.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Kevin, to stay in.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22Which Formula 1 driver won a record 91 Grand Prixs?
0:18:22 > 0:18:23Well, I think it's...
0:18:25 > 0:18:27Oh, hang on.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30No, I think he's still got, Michael Schumacher.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Michael Schumacher is correct.
0:18:32 > 0:18:33Sudden Death, Darren, back to you.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36The England cricketer Stuart Broad
0:18:36 > 0:18:39began his first-class career with which county team
0:18:39 > 0:18:43before moving to Nottinghamshire in 2008?
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Not sure on this one. I was hoping that you wouldn't have said
0:18:48 > 0:18:52Nottinghamshire, because I knew he spent a loss of his career there.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55I'll just have to take a guess at Lancashire.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57- Eggheads? EGGHEADS:- Leicestershire.
0:18:57 > 0:18:58Leicestershire is the answer!
0:18:58 > 0:19:00All right, so a chance for Kevin
0:19:00 > 0:19:02here to take the round on Sudden Death.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Kevin, in 2016, which American golfer became the first player in
0:19:06 > 0:19:10PGA Tour history to shoot a round of 58?
0:19:10 > 0:19:11I saw this at the time,
0:19:11 > 0:19:15but unfortunately not seen it recently.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21It's not necessarily one of the big names.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25Er... Was it...? Just trying to think if it's Koepka,
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Patrick Reed...
0:19:28 > 0:19:30No, I'm going to have to go for something.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32I think I may be distracted by this
0:19:32 > 0:19:36because I've seen his name recently, but I'm not...
0:19:36 > 0:19:38I shall say Justin Thomas.
0:19:38 > 0:19:39- No, it's Jim Furyk. - Oh, it was Furyk, was it?
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Yeah, the Travellers Championship in Connecticut.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45- No, I thought it was somebody a bit younger, OK.- 58 round.- OK.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47Darren, you're still in it.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49- Come on, Darren. - A bit of magic there.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52In which city did the British swimmer Anita Lonsbrough
0:19:52 > 0:19:55win an Olympic gold medal?
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Now, we haven't won an Olympic gold medal
0:19:57 > 0:20:00until 2016 for quite a long time.
0:20:03 > 0:20:08Possibly as far back as the '80s or '90s.
0:20:08 > 0:20:13I'm going to have a guess at Seoul.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16No, it was even before that, 1960 in Rome.
0:20:16 > 0:20:17Rome in 1960.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20OK, Kevin, you can take the round.
0:20:20 > 0:20:26Dick Butkus, born in December 1942, is a famous name in which sport?
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Um, I hope I'm not snatching at this
0:20:28 > 0:20:31but I believe that's American football.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34He's one of the NFL's most fearsome tacklers.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37American football is absolutely right, Kevin, well done.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Darren, you played well there,
0:20:39 > 0:20:41you kept him going on Sudden Death for longer than most.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44But you've been knocked out, I'm afraid.
0:20:44 > 0:20:45Come back to us, Kevin and Darren,
0:20:45 > 0:20:47and we will play the all-important final round.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51So, this is what we have been playing towards.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53It is time for the final round,
0:20:53 > 0:20:55which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads are not taking
0:20:58 > 0:20:59part in the round.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02So, that is Darren, Kim and Mark from the Egg Bags,
0:21:02 > 0:21:04but also Judith from the Eggheads.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Would you please now leave our studio?
0:21:09 > 0:21:10Bob and Phil, here we are.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13You are playing to win the magic team of the Egg Bags £5,000.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Dave, Steve, Beth and Kevin,
0:21:15 > 0:21:17you're playing for something that money can't buy,
0:21:17 > 0:21:20the Eggheads' reputation and to keep this roll going.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26This time, they are all General Knowledge. You can confer.
0:21:26 > 0:21:31So, Egg Bags, the question is can your two brains defeat these four?
0:21:31 > 0:21:33I'm sure you can do it, Bob and Phil.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35- Do you want to go first or second? - Go first.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37Yeah, we'll go first, Jeremy, please.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43OK, here's your question.
0:21:43 > 0:21:48Banh mi is a term for bread and a type of sandwich from which country?
0:21:48 > 0:21:54It's two words, the first one is B-A-N-H and the second one is M-I.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01- Sounds like Vietnamese to me. - I was thinking that as well.
0:22:01 > 0:22:06- I was thinking Vietnamese as well.- I'd go for Vietnamese.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09- Yeah, let's plump for that. - I think we'll go for Vietnam.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Vietnam is the right answer, well done.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Eggheads, which actor born in 1987
0:22:16 > 0:22:19has appeared in the films The Paperboy,
0:22:19 > 0:22:22Neighbours and Dirty Grandpa?
0:22:24 > 0:22:26- Is it's Efron?- Yeah, Zac Efron.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Zac Efron's appeared in all of those, hasn't he?
0:22:29 > 0:22:31Be about right for the year.
0:22:31 > 0:22:32It will be about that, won't he?
0:22:32 > 0:22:34We're going to go for Zac Efron, please.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Zac Efron is the right answer.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Back to you, Challengers. One each.
0:22:39 > 0:22:44What was the first name of the Russian mystic and adviser Rasputin?
0:22:49 > 0:22:50I thought it were Ra-Ra!
0:22:51 > 0:22:53I don't know. You don't have any?
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- I'm stuck.- I'm not getting...
0:22:56 > 0:22:59I'm not getting anything further.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01I'm drawn to Ivan, for some reason.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Really? I was thinking Grigori.
0:23:03 > 0:23:04Yeah?
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Ivan don't seem obvious.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09- It's not Russian enough.- Aleksey, it could be Aleksey.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11Let's go Aleksey.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15- You think?- No.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19But I think that would be the least obvious.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22But perhaps it is, because it's the least obvious.
0:23:22 > 0:23:27I don't know. I can't think of anything apart from the song
0:23:27 > 0:23:32that might mention it. It's don't mention it at all, does it?
0:23:33 > 0:23:36What do you reckon?
0:23:36 > 0:23:38- I don't think it is Ivan.- Don't think it's Ivan.- I don't know.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41I don't think it's Aleksey.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44- So, shall we just go for it? - Go for it.
0:23:44 > 0:23:48We're not really sure, Jeremy, but we're going to go for Grigori.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50It's just a case, we hardly ever hear his first name, do we?
0:23:50 > 0:23:54It's like a glimmer. And I was going through the Boney M song as well.
0:23:54 > 0:23:55Are they right, Eggheads?
0:23:55 > 0:23:57- Yes!- Yes, you're right.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Grigori, well done.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01Well done.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03You've got two, the Eggheads have got one.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06Final round, £5,000.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09Eggheads, a man named Willem-Alexander
0:24:09 > 0:24:12became the king of which European country in 2013?
0:24:14 > 0:24:16I think the Netherlands.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Netherlands, yeah? We're all happy with that?
0:24:18 > 0:24:20We're going for the Netherlands, please, Jeremy.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22Yes, Netherlands is correct.
0:24:22 > 0:24:232-2.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27Now, if you get this one right, you could put some serious pressure on.
0:24:27 > 0:24:28In the 18th century,
0:24:28 > 0:24:31the Royal Navy introduced a policy
0:24:31 > 0:24:34of sheathing the hulls of their ships with which metal?
0:24:38 > 0:24:39Steel would rust.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41It would be the hardest, wouldn't it?
0:24:41 > 0:24:43That was before the time of stainless steel.
0:24:43 > 0:24:44Hmm.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48Copper is often used in water.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52You see copper on top of boats, don't you?
0:24:52 > 0:24:54- Yeah.- But I don't know about underneath.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56I think tin would be too expensive, wouldn't it?
0:24:56 > 0:24:57Tin's an expensive metal, isn't it?
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Well, copper is as well.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01- I think tin's more expensive.- Yeah?
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Shall we go for copper, then?
0:25:03 > 0:25:05That's probably all we've got, isn't it?
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Yeah.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09- Go for it.- Again, we're not sure on this, Jeremy,
0:25:09 > 0:25:12but I think we're going to go for copper.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14The correct answer is...
0:25:14 > 0:25:15Copper.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Well done! You've got three out of three.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20You might well find you've won.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23If the Eggheads fall apart now, you've won £5,000,
0:25:23 > 0:25:25you don't need to do anything more.
0:25:25 > 0:25:26Well, well, well, Eggheads,
0:25:26 > 0:25:29here's your third question in the final round.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32What colour is the plumage of the chough,
0:25:32 > 0:25:35a bird found in the west of the British Isles?
0:25:36 > 0:25:41- I thought it was black.- Yes, it's a member of the crow family.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43- OK.- Beth, you happy? - Yes.- You happy?
0:25:43 > 0:25:46- Yeah, I think black. - Black, on reflection?
0:25:46 > 0:25:50- Mm-hm.- Yeah, we're going to go black, please, Jeremy.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52Black, now this is the kind of question that Judith loves,
0:25:52 > 0:25:54isn't it, Judith?
0:25:54 > 0:25:56- The plumage of the chough. - I think it's an insignificant brown.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59It's very lucky you're not in the final round,
0:25:59 > 0:26:01because the answer is black.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04- Oh!- That's a shame you knocked her out.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Oh, dear.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08We needed Judith at the desk for that one.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10That would have been good!
0:26:10 > 0:26:12Derail the whole enterprise.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14OK, so it's 3-3.
0:26:14 > 0:26:15- Sudden Death now.- OK.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18I don't give you alternative answers.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20What is the name of the Act of Parliament
0:26:20 > 0:26:22that came into force in 1968
0:26:22 > 0:26:27that prohibits sellers from using false or misleading information
0:26:27 > 0:26:30in order to sell goods or services?
0:26:30 > 0:26:32Well, you should know a bit about this, Phil.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34Running a magic shop.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37Yeah, I should. I think it's the Sale Of Goods Act.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39That's the only thing I can think of, Sale Of Goods Act.
0:26:39 > 0:26:40Sounds right to me.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42It's been updated a few times, hasn't it?
0:26:42 > 0:26:44So, it might have been updated.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47- That's all I've got.- I...
0:26:47 > 0:26:49- You got anything else?- No, no.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52I think we're going to go with the Sale Of Goods Act.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56The Sale Of Goods Act wasn't 1968.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58- It is the Trade Descriptions Act. - Oh!
0:27:00 > 0:27:03It's not over, but if the Eggheads get this right, it will be.
0:27:03 > 0:27:07Eggheads, which city is the largest by population in Morocco?
0:27:07 > 0:27:09- Casablanca.- I think...
0:27:09 > 0:27:14Yeah, I think Casablanca is the biggest by population.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17- Yeah?- Yeah.- Right, OK.
0:27:17 > 0:27:21We're going to go for Casablanca, please, Jeremy.
0:27:21 > 0:27:22Casablanca is your answer.
0:27:22 > 0:27:26We're on Sudden Death, so if you've got this right the contest is over.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28The largest city by population
0:27:28 > 0:27:31in Morocco, £5,000 is the jackpot today.
0:27:31 > 0:27:32The answer is...
0:27:32 > 0:27:34..Casablanca.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36We say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39APPLAUSE
0:27:41 > 0:27:44Ah, sorry! I know because you run a shop.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46Yeah. Just unlucky, it never crossed us.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49I know you know it. Commiserations to the Egg Bags and thank you for
0:27:49 > 0:27:51bringing your magic into the studio today.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53- You're welcome.- Great to meet you. - Thank you.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55- Hope you've enjoyed it. - Yeah.- We have, yeah.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them,
0:27:57 > 0:28:00most of the time anyway. They still reign supreme.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03It does mean that the Challengers don't go home with the £5,000.
0:28:03 > 0:28:04It rolls over to our next show.
0:28:04 > 0:28:08Eggheads, well done, you are in pretty storming form at the moment.
0:28:08 > 0:28:09You only lost one today.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11So, join us next time to see if
0:28:11 > 0:28:14a new team of Challengers can take them down.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16There will be £6,000 to play for.
0:28:16 > 0:28:17Until we quiz again, goodbye.
