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 > 0:00:33And you really are the best. Aren't you, Eggs?

0:00:33 > 0:00:35Thank you, Jeremy. Nice to be recognised.

0:00:35 > 0:00:39It's true. Challenging the might of our quiz Goliaths today

0:00:39 > 0:00:40are The Beer Milers.

0:00:40 > 0:00:44Now, this team are all members of the Trent Park Running Club

0:00:44 > 0:00:46in North London. Let's meet them.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49Hi, I'm Paul and I work in IT support.

0:00:49 > 0:00:53Hello, I'm Martin. I'm a utility manager in construction.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Hello, I'm Edwin, and I'm a freelance chartered accountant.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Hello, I'm Adrian and I'm a lecturer in marketing.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Hi, I'm Garrett and I'm a health care consultant.

0:01:01 > 0:01:05- So, Paul and team, hello. - Hello.- Great to see you, welcome.

0:01:05 > 0:01:09So it's a combination of beer and running, Paul, it seems to be.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11That's right. That's definitely the common theme,

0:01:11 > 0:01:14we all run for Trent Park Running Club, we all train together.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16We race in various leagues together

0:01:16 > 0:01:18and we like to have a drink together.

0:01:18 > 0:01:22- And Trent Park is North London? - That's correct, yeah. Enfield.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25Cos running and beer, that's basically your interest, Dave,

0:01:25 > 0:01:27- apart from the running. - Yeah, of course, yeah.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29THEY LAUGH

0:01:29 > 0:01:31So... You don't presumably combine the running and the beer

0:01:31 > 0:01:33- on the same day, or maybe you do? - We do.

0:01:33 > 0:01:36We've now got an annual event in the club, which is The Beer Mile,

0:01:36 > 0:01:39which is becoming popular, actually, in general.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41So that's a race in its own right now.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Four drinks during a mile race.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46- Oof.- So 400 metres, drink, et cetera.

0:01:46 > 0:01:50- Seriously? I would struggle. - It's quite big now, yeah.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53- Four pints?- No, it's 350 mils,

0:01:53 > 0:01:55so it works out at about three pints.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57OK. I'd be under every table with that, I must say.

0:01:57 > 0:01:59But you quiz as well, crucially, Paul.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01We do a bit of quizzing.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03- OK. Don't say any more, leave them guessing...- OK.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06I can see they're starting to worry over there.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs

0:02:08 > 0:02:12for our Challengers. However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:02:12 > 0:02:14the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Good luck, Beer Milers.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19I can tell you the Eggheads have won the last six, so they're on, er,

0:02:19 > 0:02:21well, it's a run of their own really.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23And it means there's £7,000 for you to win.

0:02:23 > 0:02:25- Would you like to try?- Yes.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Thought so. The first head-to-head battle

0:02:27 > 0:02:29is on the subject of Geography,

0:02:29 > 0:02:32and you can choose one of you against either Dave,

0:02:32 > 0:02:34Beth, Chris, Pat, or Judith.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37I think Geography is probably Garrett.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Yeah, I'm happy to take that one.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41- Sure.- Garrett, OK.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43Health care consultant. Against which Egghead?

0:02:43 > 0:02:46Look at them all, looking as if their sat navs are working.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48- Beth?- Beth, perhaps? Yeah.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50- I think so.- OK, give it a go.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52All right. They sound determined, this lot.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55So it's Garrett from The Beer Milers taking on Beth

0:02:55 > 0:02:56from the Eggheads on Geography.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58And just to ensure there's no conferring,

0:02:58 > 0:03:01would you please go to our legendary Question Room?

0:03:03 > 0:03:05So you're a runner for sure, Garrett, is that right?

0:03:05 > 0:03:07Yeah, that's right. I like to run

0:03:07 > 0:03:10and take part in quite a few triathlons, as well.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Yeah, and you've done marathons,

0:03:12 > 0:03:14but you've done longer distances than that.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16Yeah, that's right. For quite a few years,

0:03:16 > 0:03:18I was running various ultra marathons.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20I particularly enjoy 24-hour events,

0:03:20 > 0:03:24where the objective is to run as far as you can in 24 hours.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26So they're a particular favourite of mine.

0:03:26 > 0:03:30So I'm trying to think, how far would you get in 24 hours?

0:03:30 > 0:03:32Surely not 100 miles?

0:03:32 > 0:03:36Some of the very best runners are getting up above 150.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38- Wow.- Which is phenomenal.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40The best I've done is 116.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42That's amazing.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45And you did the Ridgeway Trail Race, did you?

0:03:45 > 0:03:47Yeah, that's a really nice event, I've done that twice,

0:03:47 > 0:03:49it's Britain's oldest Roman road,

0:03:49 > 0:03:51so there's a lot of history around it as well,

0:03:51 > 0:03:52and it's really beautiful.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55It's 87 miles, 9,000 foot of ascents,

0:03:55 > 0:03:58so quite a challenging run, because of all the ups and downs.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Goodness. Beth, how are we feeling about this?

0:04:01 > 0:04:02Exhausted.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04LAUGHTER Exhausted just listening to it.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07Yeah. OK, well, respect, Garrett. And good luck on Geography.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10Would you like to go first or second against Beth?

0:04:10 > 0:04:11I'll go first, please, Jeremy.

0:04:15 > 0:04:19Which of these counties is located on Ireland's south coast?

0:04:22 > 0:04:26Well, I was born in Dublin and I know that's on the east,

0:04:26 > 0:04:30Galway is a very beautiful county on the west and Cork,

0:04:30 > 0:04:32actually, my sister was born in, and that's on the south.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35So I would choose Cork, please, Jeremy.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37Cork is quite right, well done.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Beth, on which estuary

0:04:39 > 0:04:42does the Lincolnshire town of Grimsby lie?

0:04:45 > 0:04:48Well, being from Lincolnshire, you'd think I should know this answer.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50It's on the Humber.

0:04:50 > 0:04:51Humber is right. Well done.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55And back we go to you, Garrett.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58The Equator passes through which of these island nations?

0:05:03 > 0:05:06OK, so, I'll try and work this out.

0:05:06 > 0:05:07Erm...

0:05:07 > 0:05:10I don't think it's Fiji.

0:05:11 > 0:05:12Erm...

0:05:12 > 0:05:15For some reason, I'm leaning towards the Maldives. Er...

0:05:16 > 0:05:19I think I am going to...

0:05:19 > 0:05:21..go with the Maldives on this one.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Maldives. Let's see, do your team-mates know?

0:05:24 > 0:05:25- Is he right?- We think so.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28Yeah, they like it. Maldives is right.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31Well done. Well done indeed. OK, Beth,

0:05:31 > 0:05:33which of these countries is the largest

0:05:33 > 0:05:35in terms of surface area?

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Saudi Arabia is quite a large country,

0:05:40 > 0:05:43Mexico is also quite large, Argentina is relatively large.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46Now, is Argentina smaller than I think it is?

0:05:46 > 0:05:50The problem with looking at a map with the Mercator projection

0:05:50 > 0:05:52is that the areas are all skewed.

0:05:52 > 0:05:56You actually have to know the answer.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59- I'm going... - BETH SIGHS

0:05:59 > 0:06:01..go with Saudi Arabia.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04- It's the wrong answer. Argentina. - I thought it might be!

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Oh, that was my first thought, should've gone with it.

0:06:07 > 0:06:08OK, Garrett.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10You can take the round with this.

0:06:10 > 0:06:14Which US state is commonly nicknamed The Treasure State,

0:06:14 > 0:06:17because of its rich mineral resources?

0:06:20 > 0:06:22I'm not entirely sure.

0:06:22 > 0:06:27I believe the Southern states are quite wealthy.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30I think I'm going towards Louisiana,

0:06:30 > 0:06:32so I will choose Louisiana, please.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34- Let's see if the Eggheads know this. Eggs?- Montana.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37- Montana. - Yeah, Montana is the answer.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Montana is The Treasure State.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42So, Beth, your question to stay in.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44What is the capital of Suriname?

0:06:48 > 0:06:51Oh, this is one I should've been revising, capital cities.

0:06:51 > 0:06:52The only one I recognise...

0:06:52 > 0:06:57I'm sure they're all capitals, but I think Suriname is Paramaribo.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00- Yes, Paramaribo is the right answer. - Paramaribo.- Yeah, Paramaribo.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04So, you've got yourself level with our challenger.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06Again we go to Sudden Death after three questions.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08With the scores level, gets a bit harder now, Garrett,

0:07:08 > 0:07:10I don't give you alternative options.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12- OK.- Here we go...

0:07:12 > 0:07:15Which country introduced a new flag in 1994,

0:07:15 > 0:07:18composed of six colours, red, white, green, yellow,

0:07:18 > 0:07:20black and blue?

0:07:20 > 0:07:21This would be South Africa.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24South Africa is quite right.

0:07:24 > 0:07:25Beth, the River Stour

0:07:25 > 0:07:29forms most of Suffolk's southern boundary with which other county?

0:07:29 > 0:07:32Suffolk's southern boundary would be with Essex.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35Essex is right, Beth. Well done.

0:07:35 > 0:07:36Garrett, your question.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40The Antipodes Islands in the South Pacific Ocean

0:07:40 > 0:07:41belong to which country?

0:07:42 > 0:07:44Because...

0:07:44 > 0:07:47..Australia and those countries are often referred to,

0:07:47 > 0:07:50the people are referred to as Antipodean, erm,

0:07:50 > 0:07:52that's bringing me into that region.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55But in terms of the islands, I think they would belong to New Zealand?

0:07:55 > 0:07:57New Zealand is correct.

0:07:57 > 0:07:58Well done.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00Beth, to stay in, Sudden Death.

0:08:00 > 0:08:01The Banda Islands,

0:08:01 > 0:08:04which have a heritage of producing nutmeg and mace,

0:08:04 > 0:08:06are part of which country?

0:08:06 > 0:08:07Let's go with Indonesia.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09Indonesia is correct.

0:08:09 > 0:08:10Garrett...

0:08:11 > 0:08:15The Ogaden is a region on which continent?

0:08:15 > 0:08:18And it's spelt O-G-A-D-E-N.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Got a couple that come to mind.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22I've not heard of it.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24I think that might be in Asia.

0:08:24 > 0:08:25It's in Africa.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Beth, for the round...

0:08:27 > 0:08:33Kilauea, one of the world's largest active volcanic craters,

0:08:33 > 0:08:36is located in which US state?

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Er, I'm hoping that is Hawaii.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40Hawaii is the right answer, well done.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43You've taken it on Sudden Death. Sorry, Garrett.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45Come back to us, please, both of you, we'll play on.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49So, The Beer Milers have lost a brain from the final round.

0:08:49 > 0:08:53The Eggheads are all still there, and we play on with Sport.

0:08:53 > 0:08:54Who would like this?

0:08:54 > 0:08:57- All of you, I should think. - All right.- I know.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Should I take it?

0:08:59 > 0:09:00I think so, yeah.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04- Want to go for it?- Yeah, I'll take that...- OK, Paul, the team captain.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Against which Egghead? Anyone but Beth.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08I will try Chris, please, Jeremy.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Ah, that's going to go down well.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13- Oh, dear. All sad. Never mind. - LAUGHTER

0:09:13 > 0:09:16Paul from The Beer Milers takes on Chris on Sport.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Please go to the Question Room now.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22So, Sport against Chris, Paul.

0:09:22 > 0:09:23Would you like to go first or second?

0:09:23 > 0:09:25I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Which of these footballers played for Manchester United

0:09:31 > 0:09:33during the 2016/17 season?

0:09:37 > 0:09:40OK, well, I know Daniel Sturridge is Liverpool.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43Danny Welbeck is Arsenal.

0:09:43 > 0:09:472016/17 for Man United would be Marcus Rashford.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50Yes, indeed. Marcus Rashford is right, well done.

0:09:50 > 0:09:51Chris, your question.

0:09:51 > 0:09:53Which nation had the most representatives

0:09:53 > 0:09:57in the initial 41-man squad selected for the 2017

0:09:57 > 0:10:01British and Irish Lions Rugby Union tour of New Zealand?

0:10:06 > 0:10:09Well, all three produce useful rugby players,

0:10:09 > 0:10:11but just on the basis of population statistics,

0:10:11 > 0:10:13I'd have to say England.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15England is correct.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17All right, Paul.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20In which year did the boxer Wladimir Klitschko

0:10:20 > 0:10:22win an Olympic gold medal?

0:10:25 > 0:10:28OK, I'll have to have a think about this.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32It's '96 or 2000.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35I'm going to try 2000, Jeremy.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39- It's actually 1996.- Ah. - Chris has a way in on Sport.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41Let's see. Chris, in April 2017,

0:10:41 > 0:10:46who became the first cricketer to score 10,000 Twenty20 runs?

0:10:51 > 0:10:53I think that was Chris Gayle.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56Chris Gayle is correct. So, Chris takes the lead here

0:10:56 > 0:10:58and you need to get this one right, Paul.

0:10:58 > 0:10:59Which of these snooker players

0:10:59 > 0:11:02has won the most World Championship titles?

0:11:06 > 0:11:08OK, well, Dennis Taylor won once,

0:11:08 > 0:11:14and Steve Davis, I think, has six world titles, maybe.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17I think Stephen Hendry has one more -

0:11:17 > 0:11:19maybe seven - so Stephen Hendry.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22Yes, you got it right. Well done. Stephen Hendry is the answer.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25So, Chris, if you get this right, you're in the final round.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29Only two Asian cities have hosted the Commonwealth Games -

0:11:29 > 0:11:30Delhi and which other?

0:11:35 > 0:11:37Well, Seoul's not in the Commonwealth.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39Lahore is in Pakistan.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42The Commonwealth city that's hosted the Commonwealth Games

0:11:42 > 0:11:45- is Kuala Lumpur. - You're right, it is Kuala Lumpur,

0:11:45 > 0:11:48so you've got three and the Challenger has two.

0:11:48 > 0:11:49Three on Sport, Chris!

0:11:49 > 0:11:50What's going on?

0:11:50 > 0:11:52Oh, look at that!

0:11:52 > 0:11:54The salute from the gold medal position.

0:11:54 > 0:11:55So, Chris will be in the final round.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Sorry, Paul, but you've given Chris a boost, that's for sure.

0:11:58 > 0:11:59He doesn't like Sport very much.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02Come back to us, both of you, and we'll play round three.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05So, as it stands, The Beer Milers

0:12:05 > 0:12:07have lost two brains from the final round.

0:12:07 > 0:12:08The Eggheads have not lost any so far.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11The next subject is Arts & Books.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13Now, who would like this?

0:12:13 > 0:12:15- That's you. - LAUGHTER

0:12:15 > 0:12:18- The three in the middle.- I think that's going to be me, Jeremy.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Edwin, OK. And who would you like to take on?

0:12:20 > 0:12:22You can have either Pat, Judith or Dave.

0:12:22 > 0:12:26- Try and take Dave out? - Dave. Let's try Dave.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29Edwin from The Beer Milers playing Dave on Arts & Books.

0:12:29 > 0:12:30And just to make sure there's no conferring,

0:12:30 > 0:12:32please, gentlemen, take your positions.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37Well, I know you're an accountant, Edwin, but also a performer.

0:12:37 > 0:12:42That's right. I do quite a bit of singing and acting in my spare time.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44I'm a songwriter, and from time to time,

0:12:44 > 0:12:47I perform those songs at open mic nights

0:12:47 > 0:12:48in North and Central London.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51OK. So, Arts & Books, I think, will be good to you, Edwin.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53And would you like to go first or second against Dave?

0:12:53 > 0:12:54I'll go first, please.

0:12:58 > 0:12:59Here's your question.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01In Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book,

0:13:01 > 0:13:04what type of animal is Akela?

0:13:07 > 0:13:10Right, believe it or not, I've actually been in a production of

0:13:10 > 0:13:12The Jungle Book, and we called it Jungle Rock

0:13:12 > 0:13:14cos we had rock songs in it.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17Bagheera was the panther.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19Do you know, I can't remember who the elephant was,

0:13:19 > 0:13:21but Akela was a wolf.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23Yeah, well done. Wolf is the answer.

0:13:23 > 0:13:28Dave, in JRR Tolkien's Lord Of The Rings trilogy,

0:13:28 > 0:13:30which of these characters is a dwarf?

0:13:34 > 0:13:38I don't know because I've not read Lord Of The Rings.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40I haven't remembered anything.

0:13:40 > 0:13:43The one that is just giving me a jolt is Gimli.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45I'm going to have to go for it,

0:13:45 > 0:13:49but I'm not sure at all because I've not read any of this.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51OK, let's check with Beth.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54- Yeah, Gimli, son of Gloin, is a dwarf.- Gimli's right.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57Back to you, Edwin.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59The French novelist and short story writer

0:13:59 > 0:14:03Guy de Maupassant lived during which century?

0:14:06 > 0:14:08I'm pretty sure that's 19th.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Yeah, we'll go with 19th.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14- 19th is right. Well done. Dave, your question.- Yeah.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17What is the surname of the main character George

0:14:17 > 0:14:21in the John Steinbeck novella Of Mice And Men?

0:14:23 > 0:14:25In a bit of trouble here.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27George Milton, George Chaucer, George Keats.

0:14:27 > 0:14:31I'm going to go Milton, but, again, no certainty at all.

0:14:31 > 0:14:35Well, you're doing well, Dave. Milton is correct. Two out of two.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37That's how they do it, Edwin.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40I don't know what it is. Daphne used to call it an inkle.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Your question. Third question can be crucial.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46In which Shakespeare play does Leonato speak the opening line,

0:14:46 > 0:14:49"I learn in this letter that Don Peter of Aragon

0:14:49 > 0:14:50"comes this night to Messina"?

0:14:56 > 0:14:58OK, if I get this wrong,

0:14:58 > 0:15:00my drama group in North London is going to give me a lot of trouble.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03There's Don John in Much Ado About Nothing.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05I think it's Much Ado About Nothing. Let's go with that.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08Much Ado About Nothing is the right answer.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10- Phew! Thank goodness. - JEREMY CHUCKLES

0:15:10 > 0:15:13You'll be welcome back there, don't worry.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16OK, Tremendous Knowledge Dave, to stay in,

0:15:16 > 0:15:18who wrote the poem The Arrow And The Song?

0:15:24 > 0:15:27- The Arrow And The Song? - The Arrow And The Song.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30Nothing's really hitting me.

0:15:30 > 0:15:34I'm going to have to take the arrow,

0:15:34 > 0:15:36shoot it through with Edgar Allan Poe.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38Edgar Allan Poe is your answer.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40Let us see with the Eggheads. Is he right?

0:15:40 > 0:15:42- I think it's Longfellow. - I thought it was Longfellow.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45Sounds more like Hiawatha - The Arrow And The Song.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is the right answer.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49You've been knocked out. Well done, Edwin.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51First breakthrough for our Challengers.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53This is good. Suddenly, we've got the turning point.

0:15:53 > 0:15:54We can sense it here.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57Come back to us. One more round before the final.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00As it stands, The Beer Milers have lost

0:16:00 > 0:16:04two brains from the final round. The Eggheads have now lost a brain,

0:16:04 > 0:16:07and, remember, these are long-distance runners, Eggs, OK?

0:16:07 > 0:16:10So, they don't sprint. You take your time, don't you?

0:16:10 > 0:16:12- That's us.- You do. Strategy.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14The next subject, and the last before the final, is Music.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16Heave into them now.

0:16:16 > 0:16:17It's Martin or Adrian.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21- Adrian?- Yeah. - So, you need to pick an Egghead.

0:16:21 > 0:16:22Yes, choose an Egghead.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24So, Adrian, it's either of the two on the right here,

0:16:24 > 0:16:27- Pat or Judith. Both enormous brains. - What's Pat...?

0:16:27 > 0:16:29Shall we try and knock Pat out? Cos Pat's strong.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31Pat's good at most things, so you're going to try and...

0:16:31 > 0:16:33- Try and knock him out? - Yeah, have a go at Pat.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35- Yeah.- I'll have a go at Pat, please.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38OK, we've got the strategy. Adrian trying to take out Pat.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40To ensure there's no conferring,

0:16:40 > 0:16:42please, for the last time, go to the Question Room.

0:16:44 > 0:16:45Good luck, Adrian.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49I gather, Pat, you haven't lost a Music round for two years.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Well, that's me. That's my fate sealed.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53- Thank you. Thank you, Jeremy. - JEREMY LAUGHS

0:16:53 > 0:16:56- I'm trying to help here, Adrian. - That's a big target on me.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58So, would you like to go first or second, Adrian?

0:16:58 > 0:17:00I'll go first, please, Jeremy.

0:17:03 > 0:17:05All right, here we go.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07The oboe is part of which section of the orchestra?

0:17:11 > 0:17:14I know it's not percussion because I play drums.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17I know it's probably not strings.

0:17:17 > 0:17:21Oboe tends to be a wind instrument,

0:17:21 > 0:17:24so I will go for woodwind, please, Jeremy.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26Yeah, no catch. Woodwind is correct. Well done.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28Pat, Gerry And The Pacemakers

0:17:28 > 0:17:32had a hit in 1964 with the single Ferry Cross The what?

0:17:34 > 0:17:40I think it subsequently became a big charity record, as well.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42It's Ferry Cross The Mersey.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Beautiful song. Mersey is right.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48Adrian, as of April 2017,

0:17:48 > 0:17:53how many UK number one singles has Elvis Presley had?

0:17:56 > 0:17:59I'd probably rule out 31.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05- I daren't sing them. - THEY LAUGH

0:18:05 > 0:18:07I'm going to go for...

0:18:08 > 0:18:10..for some reason, 11.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13You've said 11. You ruled out 31.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16Pat, can you give us any daylight on this?

0:18:16 > 0:18:18I probably would've gone 11, as well.

0:18:18 > 0:18:2021 seems a great many.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23But then they did reversion them and they rereleased them -

0:18:23 > 0:18:25A Little Less Conversation, all that kind of thing.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27- 21 is the answer.- Oh.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30OK, Pat, your question, to take the lead.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Which of these famous composers was born first?

0:18:35 > 0:18:38I think they're pretty much in that order in chronology.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40Bach was 1685.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44Beethoven and Brahms were both considerably later, so it's Bach.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Bach is right.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49He's got two and you need to get this one, Adrian.

0:18:49 > 0:18:54I Am Here For You and You And Me (But Mostly Me)

0:18:54 > 0:18:56are songs from which musical?

0:19:02 > 0:19:06I thought Legally Blonde was a film. I'm not sure if it was a musical.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09Book Of Mormon, I don't know.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11I would say Avenue Q.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13The Book Of Mormon is the answer.

0:19:13 > 0:19:16Sorry, Adrian, knocked out by Pat here,

0:19:16 > 0:19:18who doesn't lose very often on Music.

0:19:18 > 0:19:19So, come back to us, both of you.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22We'll play the final round for £7,000.

0:19:24 > 0:19:25So, this is what we have been playing towards.

0:19:25 > 0:19:29It is time for the final round and, as always, it's General Knowledge.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:19:32 > 0:19:34are not taking part in this round.

0:19:34 > 0:19:38So, that's Paul, Adrian and Garrett from The Beer Milers,

0:19:38 > 0:19:40and also Dave from the Eggheads.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42Would you now please leave the studio?

0:19:44 > 0:19:48Martin, Edwin, you are playing to win The Beer Milers £7,000.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52Beth, Chris, Pat and Judith, you're playing to defend the jackpot

0:19:52 > 0:19:54and the Eggheads' reputation, as well.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59They're all General Knowledge. You can confer.

0:19:59 > 0:20:05So, Beer Milers, the question is, can your two brains beat these four?

0:20:05 > 0:20:07So, would you like to go first or second?

0:20:07 > 0:20:08We'll go first, please, Jeremy.

0:20:12 > 0:20:13OK, guys, good luck.

0:20:13 > 0:20:17In Indian cuisine, what sort of food is keema?

0:20:17 > 0:20:19K-E-E-M-A.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25- Do you know it? - I've sometimes had a keema naan.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27Keema naan, yeah.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Well, we've both had keema naans on a frequent basis,

0:20:29 > 0:20:34so on the basis that keema naan is minced meat within the bread,

0:20:34 > 0:20:35we'd say minced meat.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37Yes, you're right. Minced meat it is.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39Well done. You could go wrong on that one, actually.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41All right, Eggheads.

0:20:41 > 0:20:48Who won a Best Actress Oscar in 2017 for her performance in La La Land?

0:20:51 > 0:20:54- That's Emma Stone.- Emma Stone. - Emma Stone?- Yeah.

0:20:54 > 0:20:56That's Emma Stone.

0:20:56 > 0:21:01It is Emma Stone, yeah. Brilliant. Challengers,

0:21:01 > 0:21:05in the equation W = FD,

0:21:05 > 0:21:11where W is work and F is force, what is D?

0:21:13 > 0:21:15Well, it could be distance or duration.

0:21:15 > 0:21:19- Oh, dear. Do you know this? - No, I don't.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22Well, force... So, force is pushing. I would've thought...

0:21:22 > 0:21:25Obviously, the more duration you do it...

0:21:25 > 0:21:27The more force you apply.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29I would've thought the longer the duration,

0:21:29 > 0:21:31- the more work you're going to do, right?- Yes.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34But that would apply to distance, as well, wouldn't it?

0:21:34 > 0:21:37Force implies an amount of pressure.

0:21:37 > 0:21:41So, would that give you forward momentum?

0:21:41 > 0:21:42Would it give you distance?

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Do you know what? I'm tempted to go with distance.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46I don't really feel a force

0:21:46 > 0:21:48multiplied by a time, do you?

0:21:48 > 0:21:50No. Shall we go for distance?

0:21:50 > 0:21:53- Yeah.- Yeah. We don't know,

0:21:53 > 0:21:54but we're going to go for distance

0:21:54 > 0:21:56just by dint of the fact

0:21:56 > 0:21:57of force applied.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00OK, W is work, F is force. What is D?

0:22:00 > 0:22:02Pat, do you know this?

0:22:02 > 0:22:04- I think it's distance. - Distance is right.

0:22:04 > 0:22:08- It's right.- Well done. - Oof! Right, near miss.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10OK, Eggheads on the defensive now.

0:22:10 > 0:22:14Culzean Castle, designed by the architect Robert Adam

0:22:14 > 0:22:16in the late 18th century,

0:22:16 > 0:22:19is located on the west coast of which country?

0:22:21 > 0:22:27- It's spelt C-U-L-Z-E-A-N. Culzean. - Oh, yes. Scotland.- I think Scotland.

0:22:27 > 0:22:31- Wasn't Eisenhower given an apartment by the nation there?- Yes.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33- Definitely Scotland. - Scotland.- Scotland?

0:22:33 > 0:22:36That's Scotland.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39Scotland is correct. Two-two. It's tense.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41£7,000. Get this one right,

0:22:41 > 0:22:44and maybe - just maybe - they will fall apart.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47All right, what type of birds are mentioned

0:22:47 > 0:22:52in the last line of the John Keats poem Ode To Autumn?

0:22:54 > 0:22:56OK, so, Ode To Autumn is

0:22:56 > 0:22:59- "Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness."- Yeah.

0:22:59 > 0:23:03"Close bosom-friend" and all that. But I don't know the last line.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05What bird would you associate with autumn?

0:23:05 > 0:23:08I don't think he would write about eagles.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10- Swallows migrate, right?- Mm-hm.

0:23:10 > 0:23:13So, they'll come in in spring,

0:23:13 > 0:23:14and out in autumn,

0:23:14 > 0:23:16so it could be a reference to that.

0:23:16 > 0:23:21On the basis that swallows emigrate in autumn...

0:23:21 > 0:23:24I think we've got a stronger connection to swallows,

0:23:24 > 0:23:26- even though we're not...- No.

0:23:26 > 0:23:30- Swallows? Will we go swallows? - Yeah.- Yeah? OK.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33We're going to go with swallows, Jeremy.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35The line is "And gathering swallows

0:23:35 > 0:23:38"twitter in the skies."

0:23:38 > 0:23:40All right. So, they got three.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43And if you don't get this one, you know what happens.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46You know the pain of that, Eggheads. Your third question.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48In terms of international intelligence sharing,

0:23:48 > 0:23:53the term Five Eyes refers to the United States,

0:23:53 > 0:23:56Britain, Canada, Australia, and which other country?

0:23:59 > 0:24:01- France was my... - I should think France, wouldn't you?

0:24:01 > 0:24:04- I think it's New Zealand. - You think it's New Zealand?- Do you?

0:24:04 > 0:24:06- Yeah.- What makes you think that?

0:24:06 > 0:24:07I think I've read about it once,

0:24:07 > 0:24:11and I think New Zealand is one of the partners.

0:24:11 > 0:24:14- I'm not certain, but... - Well, if it's wrong, it's wrong.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16- ..I have a feeling. - Well, I trust your inklings.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18- Shall we go for that? - Yes, we'll trust Pat's inklings.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20- Shall we go for New Zealand? - Yes.- OK.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23We're going for New Zealand.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26- Pat is absolutely right. It's New Zealand.- Well done, Pat.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28- He saved it.- Phew.

0:24:28 > 0:24:29All right, so, we go to Sudden Death.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31It's a very good contest today.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34Gets a bit harder. I don't give you options.

0:24:34 > 0:24:38Here we go. The names of two signs of the Zodiac begin with a vowel.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Aquarius is one. What is the other?

0:24:40 > 0:24:43- It's Aries, isn't it?- Aries.- Yeah.

0:24:43 > 0:24:44It's Aries, Jeremy.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46Aries is right. Well done.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48Sudden Death.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52Rachel Riley first found fame in 2009

0:24:52 > 0:24:55when she became a presenter on which daytime TV show?

0:24:55 > 0:24:58- Countdown.- Countdown? Yeah, I think that has her first job.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00- She was a maths graduate. - Yeah, she was.- Got that job.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02- It's Countdown?- Countdown.

0:25:02 > 0:25:04That is Countdown.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06Countdown is correct.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Chris has never forgiven her for replacing Carol Vorderman.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11LAUGHTER

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Sudden Death. As of the end of 2016,

0:25:13 > 0:25:18Sylvester Stallone has played the character Rocky Balboa

0:25:18 > 0:25:19in how many films?

0:25:19 > 0:25:22Up until the late '80s.

0:25:22 > 0:25:26Rocky IV came out in '88? '87? '88?

0:25:26 > 0:25:29- Is there not a Rocky V? - I think there was a Rocky V,

0:25:29 > 0:25:35but wasn't there a sequel with Apollo Creed's son?

0:25:35 > 0:25:37Is that a Rocky film? Creed, wasn't it?

0:25:37 > 0:25:39- It was called Creed.- OK.

0:25:39 > 0:25:41Were there any other ones apart from this Creed?

0:25:41 > 0:25:44There was another one called Rocky Balboa that he did.

0:25:44 > 0:25:46I don't... I don't remember it.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49- Do we feel like he played Rocky later on as an older guy?- Yeah.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51- So, would that be five? - As a trainer, yeah.

0:25:51 > 0:25:54That's what I'm saying. I think probably six.

0:25:54 > 0:25:58If we've got Rocky V, plus that, that's six films as Rocky Balboa.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00- Listen, I'm happy with six. I mean...- Are you?

0:26:00 > 0:26:03I'm pretty sure he did five, and I thought I had in my head

0:26:03 > 0:26:05that he did a film called Rocky Balboa.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08He did one as Rocky later, but...

0:26:08 > 0:26:11He did six or seven. Possibly seven.

0:26:11 > 0:26:12I think six, but you're...

0:26:12 > 0:26:16No, if you think six, six is my most preferred answer.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18- Are you sure?- I'm not certain,

0:26:18 > 0:26:21- but that's what I would go for if I was on my own.- All right, OK.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24So, I think we've got consensus and we're going to go for six.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27OK, six is your answer. I listened very carefully.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29You've got all the information there.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31You got it wrong. THEY GROAN

0:26:31 > 0:26:33So, this is the thing, right?

0:26:33 > 0:26:35Yes, it's Rocky one to five,

0:26:35 > 0:26:38and, yes, the most recent one is Creed,

0:26:38 > 0:26:40but there was another one called Rocky Balboa...

0:26:40 > 0:26:44- Oh, mate...- Oh. - ..which you kept sort of suggesting.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47- I'm so sorry.- No, I wouldn't... - No, but I could hear you.

0:26:47 > 0:26:49It was there. I was so frustrated for you.

0:26:49 > 0:26:52- So, I'm sorry, it's seven.- Too bad.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54That was really amazing listening to you discussing it.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57I was thinking you're suddenly going to slot in the pieces.

0:26:57 > 0:26:58It's not over yet.

0:26:58 > 0:27:01Eggheads, this for the contest.

0:27:01 > 0:27:05Mount Elbert, the highest point in the Rockies,

0:27:05 > 0:27:07is in which US state?

0:27:07 > 0:27:11- I think most of the Rockies is in Colorado, isn't it?- Yeah.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14- It goes down, doesn't it? - Yeah, it's a huge range.

0:27:14 > 0:27:18- What's above Colorado... - Oh, erm...- ..with the Rockies?

0:27:18 > 0:27:20There probably are some in Idaho,

0:27:20 > 0:27:22and then they bend then towards the coast,

0:27:22 > 0:27:24and they extend into Canada.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26- I think Colorado's a... - I don't know.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28I think Colorado, as well.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31- It's got loads and loads of really high mountains.- Yeah.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33OK. We're going to say Colorado.

0:27:33 > 0:27:36Colorado. We had Rocky in the last question, didn't we,

0:27:36 > 0:27:39- and rocky in this question?- Yeah. - Have you got it wrong, as well?

0:27:39 > 0:27:42If you have, we play on. If you haven't, the contest is over.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45- The correct answer is Colorado. - It is!

0:27:45 > 0:27:48We say congratulations, Eggheads. You have won.

0:27:52 > 0:27:55Ooh, that turned into quite a contest.

0:27:55 > 0:27:58- Eesh! Well played, seriously. - Thank you.- Thank you.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00You turned on the heat at the end there. My goodness.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02Commiserations, Beer Milers. Sorry about that.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05The Eggheads have done what sort of comes naturally to them

0:28:05 > 0:28:06most of the time.

0:28:06 > 0:28:09And the winning streak continues, and it's looking good.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11You only lost one today, as well, Eggheads.

0:28:11 > 0:28:13It means the Challengers don't go home with the £7,000,

0:28:13 > 0:28:15so we roll the money over to our next show.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18Eggheads, very well done. Who will beat you?

0:28:18 > 0:28:21Join us next time to see if a new team of Challengers

0:28:21 > 0:28:23can do the same or better.

0:28:23 > 0:28:27There'll be £8,000 to win. Until then, goodbye.
