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 > 0:00:24Welcome to Eggheads,
0:00:24 > 0:00:28the show where a team of five quiz Challengers pit their wits against
0:00:28 > 0:00:30possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. Here they are -
0:00:30 > 0:00:32the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34And when we said, "Can they be beaten?" I said, "Yes, they can,"
0:00:34 > 0:00:36- and you said, Judith... - "No, they can't."
0:00:36 > 0:00:39They can't. They don't believe that they're beatable at the moment.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42The stakes are high here. Taking on our awesome quiz champions today
0:00:42 > 0:00:44are Too Tricky 5 Me from Glasgow.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Now, this team has been brought together by team captain Shazia,
0:00:47 > 0:00:50who has enlisted the help of friends and family to take on the Eggheads.
0:00:50 > 0:00:51Let's meet them.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Hello, my name is Shazia, and I am a primary teacher.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hello, my name is Ayaz, and I'm an accounting student.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01Hiya, I'm Abdul, and I'm a part-time cashier.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Connor, and I'm a data handler.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Hello, I'm Aswad, and I'm an accounts assistant.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08So, Shazia and team, hello.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11- Hello, Jeremy.- Great to see you all. And I know you're all
0:01:11 > 0:01:13kind of connected in some way to each other, Shazia.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15- That's correct. Yes. - Friends, family?
0:01:15 > 0:01:19Well, he's my brother, and we're friends through the school,
0:01:19 > 0:01:20and that's some of my brother's work friends.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23And Too Tricky 5 Me is because it is too tricky "FOUR" you?
0:01:23 > 0:01:27- For us! But there's five of us. So it's too tricky.- I've got it.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29I just thought I should have asked.
0:01:29 > 0:01:30It was kind of obvious, wasn't it, Eggs?
0:01:30 > 0:01:33I can hear them all tutting away at my questions.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36- All the time. You're a teacher? - I am.- Do you love it?
0:01:36 > 0:01:38- I love it. - Tell us about the school you're in.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40It's in Thornwood Primary School, it's in Partick,
0:01:40 > 0:01:42and I have a wonderful class.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45And they wanted me to give them a shout out, so hello, P6!
0:01:45 > 0:01:47- P6?- P6, yeah.- OK.
0:01:47 > 0:01:48Right, win it for P6, yeah?
0:01:48 > 0:01:51- Well, hopefully. - Good luck, guys, good luck.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs
0:01:53 > 0:01:57for our Challengers. However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:57 > 0:01:59the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00So, Too Tricky 5 Me,
0:02:00 > 0:02:03the Eggheads had a bit of a bashing a few games ago, but they've got
0:02:03 > 0:02:06back into their stride. They've won the last two.
0:02:06 > 0:02:07They're building up a run here.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10You've got to stop them, and there's £3,000 if you do.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12- Are you ready to play? - Yes, we are.
0:02:12 > 0:02:16Fantastic. The first head-to-head battle will be on Music.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Shazia, who would like this? You can take on either Judith, Chris, Pat,
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- Steve, or Lisa. - Connor?- I think Connor.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- I suppose. - You suppose, that'll do!
0:02:24 > 0:02:28Connor, our data handler, and which Egghead would you like to handle?
0:02:30 > 0:02:31I'll try Steve.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Yep, quite hard to handle on some days.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35Although the last game...
0:02:35 > 0:02:37- Crashed and burned.- Crashed and burned a little, that's right.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40So maybe you're going to catch him at a good time here, Connor.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43So, Connor from our Challengers versus Steve from the Eggheads,
0:02:43 > 0:02:46please now take your places in our legendary Question Room.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Now, we had a little bit of a moment, Steve, in the last game,
0:02:50 > 0:02:53- didn't we, with Geography? - We did, yes.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55- What happened?- Er, well, I got it wrong, basically.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58But interestingly it was your first Geography round you'd lost,
0:02:58 > 0:03:00so you'd been playing very, very strongly.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02Well, up till that point. But there's always things
0:03:02 > 0:03:05you don't know, Jeremy, and if you can't guess right, which I didn't,
0:03:05 > 0:03:08- then unfortunately, sometimes you lose.- And where are we on Music?
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- Have you lost any there? - I have, yeah,
0:03:10 > 0:03:12just to give a bit more encouragement to Connor.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14But I do my best, I do my best.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16What was the Music area that went wrong?
0:03:16 > 0:03:20- Gilbert and Sullivan.- Gilbert AND Sullivan or Gilbert O'Sullivan?
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Well, I'd probably have got that one right -
0:03:22 > 0:03:23I don't mind Gilbert O'Sullivan.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Gilbert and Sullivan - they're not my thing.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28OK. Well, now we know, Connor, you know where the weak point is.
0:03:28 > 0:03:29I wish you well in this round, Challenger.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Do you want to go first or second?
0:03:31 > 0:03:33I'll let Steve go first.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39So, Steve, he's putting you in first, and here is your question.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41In which city in 1978
0:03:41 > 0:03:44did Jarvis Cocker found the group that became Pulp?
0:03:48 > 0:03:51Yeah, they're from my neck of t'woods - it's Sheffield.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54Sheffield is correct. They've been around a long time, haven't they?
0:03:54 > 0:03:56- They have, yeah. - OK, Connor.
0:03:56 > 0:04:01What was the name of the band Gladys Knight formed in 1952 with
0:04:01 > 0:04:05Merald Knight, William Guest, and Edward Patten?
0:04:10 > 0:04:14I've actually never heard of them before, so I'm going to try to make
0:04:14 > 0:04:17a slight educated guess on this. I would probably say possibly
0:04:17 > 0:04:19The Drifters.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22There's a famous song that she does. Come on, Lisa, can you...?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25- Which one would you like? - Midnight Train To Georgia, can you?
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Yes, I can.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30# He's leaving...leaving
0:04:30 > 0:04:33# On that midnight train to Georgia... #
0:04:33 > 0:04:35You see, you need The Pips, it doesn't work just on your own.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37And I'd rather live in his world, do that line.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41# Rather live in his world than live without him in mine. #
0:04:41 > 0:04:43It really doesn't work without The Pips.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45No, but the lyric in that...
0:04:45 > 0:04:47So the song is Midnight Train To Georgia.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49The band is - you might have heard - if I put the names together,
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Gladys Knight And The Pips.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55- Connor, The Pips is the answer.- Yep.
0:04:55 > 0:05:00Steve, what is the title of The Beatles' second studio album?
0:05:04 > 0:05:06That's With The Beatles, Jeremy.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Oh, you went straight there. What was the first one, then?
0:05:08 > 0:05:10- Please Please Me.- I see.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12So this was still in their kind of pop phase, was it?
0:05:12 > 0:05:13Yeah, about '63.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15Right, With The Beatles is right.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Connor, back to you, you do need to get this one right to stay in.
0:05:18 > 0:05:24Which group had a UK number one single in 1977 with Chanson D'Amour?
0:05:30 > 0:05:34Again, I'm probably going to need to make a slight guess at this one.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37But...probably guess The New Seekers.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- Steve, you'll know this. - Manhattan Transfer.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Manhattan Transfer is the answer. Chanson...
0:05:44 > 0:05:46You could do this one as well, Lisa, but...
0:05:46 > 0:05:48I was going to get Chris to do it, it seemed more his...
0:05:48 > 0:05:54- Go on, Chris! - # Chanson D'amour, ra ta ra ta ra. #
0:05:54 > 0:05:57That's the bit we wanted! Oh, I'm sorry, Connor,
0:05:57 > 0:05:58it didn't quite break for you there.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00"Ra ta ra ta ra" has knocked you out.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Manhattan Transfer was the answer,
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Steve is in the final and you're not, but it is early.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Come back to us, we'll play on.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10So as it stands, Too Tricky 5 Me have lost a brain
0:06:10 > 0:06:13from the final round, the Eggheads are still all there,
0:06:13 > 0:06:15all intact, shells still on.
0:06:15 > 0:06:16The next subject is Science.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Now, who would like this?
0:06:18 > 0:06:19Shazia, is there a plan?
0:06:19 > 0:06:23Yeah. We were counting on this.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- Going to be Abdul? - Yep.- OK.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Abdul, which Egghead? It can't be Steve.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30I'd like to take Pat on.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33- You'd like to take on Pat. - Yep.- Good stuff.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Abdul from Too Tricky 5 Me, to play Pat on Science,
0:06:36 > 0:06:38please take your positions.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43So, Abdul, you're a member of the Chemical Engineering Society.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Is that a hobby or part of your job?
0:06:45 > 0:06:48It's a part of what I study, actually.
0:06:48 > 0:06:49Studying chemical engineering.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Right, with a view to doing what kind of thing?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Well, with chemical engineering,
0:06:54 > 0:06:56you can go into the petrochemical industry,
0:06:56 > 0:07:00which is where you'd go for money, but I'm looking at going into
0:07:00 > 0:07:04pharmaceutical stuff, because everyone needs medicine, really.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Yeah, good thinking. Good luck on the Science round here.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11I know it's your subject. You're up against Pat. He's quite a powerful
0:07:11 > 0:07:14quizzer, so just try and use whatever tactics you need
0:07:14 > 0:07:17to calm him down. Science, first or second, Abdul?
0:07:17 > 0:07:19I'd like to go first.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Here we go, with your first question.
0:07:25 > 0:07:31Herschel and Planck, launched by the European Space Agency in 2009,
0:07:31 > 0:07:32are examples of what?
0:07:37 > 0:07:41Let me read it again. Herschel and Planck, launched by the
0:07:41 > 0:07:44European Space Agency in 2009, are examples of what?
0:07:46 > 0:07:48I don't think they're telescopes.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51Erm... Planck's constant...
0:07:52 > 0:07:55In fact, they ARE space telescopes.
0:07:55 > 0:08:00Because I'm pretty sure I remember something about Planck's constant
0:08:00 > 0:08:05from physics and it's something to do with light, or something.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Sorry, Mr Campbell, if I've got this wrong!
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- So, what's your answer? - Space telescopes.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13- Space telescopes is right! - Yay!- Yay!
0:08:13 > 0:08:17You just were about to move away and then the knowledge came back.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20- Yeah.- OK, Pat, your question.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23What is the branch of science that deals with the effects of
0:08:23 > 0:08:27very low temperatures on living things known as?
0:08:27 > 0:08:29The effects of very low temperatures on living things.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Well, the prefix "cryo", there,
0:08:38 > 0:08:42you see that a lot when referring to low temperatures,
0:08:42 > 0:08:45so I'll go for cryobiology.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Cryobiology is correct.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49And a lot of this experimentation still goes on
0:08:49 > 0:08:53with the Eggheads' dressing rooms! Cryobiology is correct.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Abdul, we go to you.
0:08:56 > 0:09:01Who would be most likely to use a coronagraph in their daily work?
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- Sorry, what kind of graph was that again?- A coronagraph.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14C-O-R-O-N-A-G-R-A-P-H. Coronagraph.
0:09:14 > 0:09:19- All one word.- I don't think it's an aircraft designer and an astronomer,
0:09:19 > 0:09:22because they're both more to do with physics.
0:09:22 > 0:09:28- So I'd go with the first option. - OK, anaesthetist is your answer.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Corona... I'm not sure, Eggs know all about this,
0:09:31 > 0:09:33but do we associate it with the sun, light with the sun, Eggheads?
0:09:33 > 0:09:35- Is that right?- Yes.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39Yeah, a coronagraph would be most likely use by an astronomer, Abdul.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43Sorry about that. Although I think if an anaesthetist used one,
0:09:43 > 0:09:44that would be very painful.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47Pat, here is your question.
0:09:47 > 0:09:52Obcordate, palmate and sagittate
0:09:52 > 0:09:54are three of the many classifications of the shapes
0:09:54 > 0:09:57of what aspect of a plant?
0:10:00 > 0:10:06Well, I suppose all three can have many different configurations.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Could I have the question again, please?
0:10:09 > 0:10:14Obcordate, palmate and sagittate are three of the many classifications
0:10:14 > 0:10:16of the shapes of what aspect of a plant?
0:10:16 > 0:10:19I think this must apply to leaves.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24Sagittate probably means either arrow or spear-like.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27Palmate would mean like the shape of a hand.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- So I think it's leaves. - Leaves is right.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34Leaves, Pat. Right, Pat has two correct answers here, Abdul.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38It does mean you've got to get this one right, OK, to stay in.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42Take your time here. A certain type of which of the following, Abdul,
0:10:42 > 0:10:46would be most likely to exhibit the quality known as labradorescence?
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Labradorescence.
0:10:55 > 0:11:03An essence is a smell and I'm pretty sure trees,
0:11:03 > 0:11:06they don't really smell like a Labrador!
0:11:06 > 0:11:13So I'd rule that out. And an ocean wave is more of an action.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16And I'm pretty sure you can't really smell a wave.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18So I'll go for mineral.
0:11:18 > 0:11:22- OK, on the basis that it would smell of something?- Yep.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25- Eggheads, help us - how do we get to this?- I'd have gone the same.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27I thought labradorite was some sort of mineral.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Essence can be just a quality of something, can't it?
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- Yeah, I suppose, yeah. - Labradorescence.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35You're right, Abdul, mineral is correct.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- OK.- Good quizzing.- Right.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41And you've drawn level with the great Pat,
0:11:41 > 0:11:44but he has a chance now with a question in hand to take the round.
0:11:44 > 0:11:49Native to the Americas, what kind of creature is a honey creeper?
0:11:52 > 0:11:54I think it's a...
0:11:54 > 0:11:58quite a specialised little bird...
0:11:58 > 0:12:01who chases insects and the like.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04- So I think it's a bird. - The correct answer is bird,
0:12:04 > 0:12:05you've got three out of three. Sorry, Abdul,
0:12:05 > 0:12:08you ran him pretty close there, but you're not in the final, I'm afraid.
0:12:08 > 0:12:12Another victory for the Eggheads here. They're playing quite well.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14Please return to us, and we'll play the third round.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19We had a word there we hadn't heard before - labradorescence.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23- Mm-hm.- And one of you said there is a mineral called...
0:12:23 > 0:12:25- Labradorite. - Labradorite.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28The word, the Labrador bit of this word,
0:12:28 > 0:12:32is really about an iridescent optical effect.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34So it's about gloss or shine, or...
0:12:34 > 0:12:38That's why... I think you were right, Abdul, to rule out trees.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42- Yeah.- I don't think you would say, "That tree is very labradorescent,"
0:12:42 > 0:12:43but a mineral could be. OK?
0:12:43 > 0:12:46A wave could be, you've got phosphorescence.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48If it was moving fast enough!
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Don't make it more complicated, Judith!
0:12:51 > 0:12:53It's true, a wave could have that kind of quality.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56- Yes.- Maybe. - If a Labrador jumped into the sea...
0:12:56 > 0:12:58No, it doesn't involve...
0:12:58 > 0:12:59Let's take the dog out of it!
0:12:59 > 0:13:03That's what's confusing us - there's no Labrador in this at all!
0:13:03 > 0:13:05As it stands, Too Tricky 5 Me have lost two brains
0:13:05 > 0:13:08from the final round, but they're playing in a gutsy way here.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11The Eggheads have not lost any, and they are playing maybe in a slightly
0:13:11 > 0:13:13smug way. I think this might be the time.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15The next subject for you is History.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19Who wants History? Aswad?
0:13:19 > 0:13:23- Yeah, I'll take History.- OK, down the end, our accounts assistant.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26And you can take on Chris, Judith or Lisa.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28I've been thinking long and hard about this,
0:13:28 > 0:13:30and I'm going for Chris.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- He's been thinking long and hard about you, Chris.- Has he?
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Don't go there!
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Aswad, from Too Tricky 5 Me, versus Chris from the Eggheads - History.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Chris loves his History, but certain periods only.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44Basically if they were armed and charging around...
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- If they were armed or steam-driven, yeah.- Armed or steam-driven, yeah.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Please go to the Question Room now.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Well, Aswad, I hear you won an award for your charity work.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Yeah, that's right, Jeremy.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57That sounds great. What was that for?
0:13:57 > 0:14:01It was actually a Vodafone World Of Difference Award for my contribution
0:14:01 > 0:14:03to all the charity work I've done in the past.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06Tremendous. So you do a lot of volunteering and that kind of thing?
0:14:06 > 0:14:10- Yeah, that's right.- Any particular areas that you like to focus on?
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Just all-round, basically,
0:14:12 > 0:14:17I like to help different causes and whatever is really there.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Wonderful. And in amidst all of that,
0:14:19 > 0:14:21you get a bit of time to think about History?
0:14:21 > 0:14:26Yeah, that's right, just watch some, you know, old documentaries.
0:14:26 > 0:14:27History programmes.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Brilliant, brilliant. Well, good luck in this round.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32Hoping you're going to turn it around for the team.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Would you like to go first or second against Chris?
0:14:35 > 0:14:37I think I'm going to give the honours, Jeremy,
0:14:37 > 0:14:39to Chris to go first.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45OK, so Chris goes first, and here we are with your question.
0:14:45 > 0:14:49The two UK general elections held during the 1960s both resulted in
0:14:49 > 0:14:51which politician becoming Prime Minister?
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Let me read it again. The two UK general elections held during
0:14:59 > 0:15:03the 1960s both resulted in which politician becoming Prime Minister?
0:15:04 > 0:15:08That was the two general election wins of Harold Wilson.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10It was. And were there only two in the '60s?
0:15:10 > 0:15:12I'm just thinking when they were, then?
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Six... I suppose there was one in '70, wasn't there?
0:15:16 > 0:15:17So there must have been one in '66, maybe?
0:15:17 > 0:15:20- Yeah.- Well, there were two very close together, do you remember?
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Because he got a very, very small majority.
0:15:22 > 0:15:26- Wasn't that '74?- I thought that was the '60s at some point.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28OK, we'll come back to that. I'm getting confused myself.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32But you're right, Harold Wilson is correct, Chris.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Aswad, your question. In 1970,
0:15:34 > 0:15:38the British government announced an indefinite ban on the importation of
0:15:38 > 0:15:42domestic pets, following an outbreak of which disease?
0:15:42 > 0:15:431970.
0:15:47 > 0:15:48In 1970,
0:15:48 > 0:15:52the British government announced an indefinite ban on the importation of
0:15:52 > 0:15:56domestic pets, following an outbreak of which disease?
0:15:56 > 0:15:58I'm thinking...
0:15:59 > 0:16:04This is going to be a punt, really, because I'm not too sure,
0:16:04 > 0:16:08so I'm going to guess rabies for this.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Rabies is right, well done.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15OK, Chris, onto you.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19During the Roman Empire, which of these was a type of brass coin?
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Can you repeat the question, Jeremy?
0:16:25 > 0:16:30During the Roman Empire, which of these was a type of brass coin?
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Oh, Romans used to quote prices in sesterces, so it's a sestertius.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42Yes, you're right, sestertius. Well done.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44A bit of that in the Bible, I think?
0:16:44 > 0:16:45Oh, "Render unto Caesar," yeah.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48Yeah. So, let's have a look, Chris has got two.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Aswad, you've got one.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Haven't got anything wrong yet. The Angles were one of the main Germanic
0:16:54 > 0:16:58peoples who settled in which part of the world in the post-Roman period?
0:17:04 > 0:17:08I think I'm going to go with Britain.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Britain is correct. He's playing well, your team-mate, isn't he?
0:17:12 > 0:17:14- Yay!- Doing really well. OK, 2-2.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18Chris, back to you. What was the name of the judge who presided over
0:17:18 > 0:17:22the 1685 trials known as the Bloody Assizes?
0:17:22 > 0:17:25What was the name of the judge who presided over the
0:17:25 > 0:17:281685 trials known as the Bloody Assizes?
0:17:33 > 0:17:36The Bloody Assizes were the work of Judge George Jeffreys,
0:17:36 > 0:17:37the Hanging Judge.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40The Hanging Judge, George Jeffreys, is right.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43So he unfortunately has got three out of three there, Aswad,
0:17:43 > 0:17:46which he does tend to do, Chris, when he's in good form,
0:17:46 > 0:17:48especially when he's wearing that shirt.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51It seems to be associated with victories.
0:17:51 > 0:17:52So get this one right to stay in.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55- If you get it right, we go to Sudden Death, OK?- OK.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Two civil wars were fought in which of these countries
0:17:57 > 0:18:00between 1944 and 1949?
0:18:04 > 0:18:05Hmm...
0:18:07 > 0:18:09Can you repeat the question again?
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Two civil wars were fought in which of these countries
0:18:13 > 0:18:15between 1944 and 1949?
0:18:17 > 0:18:23Er, I'm going to take a guess at this,
0:18:23 > 0:18:29- and I'm going to say Spain. - Chris, do you know?
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Well, there was a Spanish Civil War in '36 to '39,
0:18:31 > 0:18:34but the two civil wars we're referring to here were in Greece.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Greece was the answer, Aswad, two out of three wasn't quite enough,
0:18:37 > 0:18:40I'm afraid. You've been knocked out, Chris is in the final round.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43Return to your teams, please. We'll play one more round.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48We were just doing a bit of our 1960s elections -
0:18:48 > 0:18:51there were only two in the '60s, interestingly. '64 and '66.
0:18:51 > 0:18:56Both won by Wilson. And then he had that double election year in '74.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58- Do you remember that, Chris? - Yeah, certainly do.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01- So he won one, had to call another. - Yeah.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03Both times at the first election, '64 and '74,
0:19:03 > 0:19:06he won too small to really govern properly.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09As it stands, Too Tricky 5 Me have lost three brains
0:19:09 > 0:19:12from the final round. The Eggheads are still all there.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14No-one has been knocked out yet on their side.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16The next subject is Sport.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18So who would like this - Sport?
0:19:18 > 0:19:20- Ayaz? - OK, the process of elimination.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24- Against?- Judith.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27OK. So Ayaz from Too Tricky 5 Me versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29On Sport, your favourite subject.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31And just to ensure there is no conferring,
0:19:31 > 0:19:33please go to the Question Room.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Well, here we are again, Judith.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39- We are.- And I was thinking about you the other day,
0:19:39 > 0:19:40- because I was watching football. - Yes?
0:19:40 > 0:19:43And I was thinking of the time we went to a game.
0:19:43 > 0:19:44I know, it was great fun, I loved it.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47And I've SORT of followed Chelsea ever since, actually.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51But do you remember that person who actually explained the offside rule
0:19:51 > 0:19:54- to you using salt and pepper? - Yes. Yes. Absolutely.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57- So, you're now a Chelsea fan? - I am - I suppose,
0:19:57 > 0:20:00if I was going to be any sort of a fan, I would be a Chelsea fan.
0:20:00 > 0:20:01Good luck in this round.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Ayaz, good luck to you. Are you a sports fan, or not?
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- Not really, but... - How did you get chosen for Sport?
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Well, it was between me and my sister so, yeah,
0:20:10 > 0:20:14between that, I thought I would be better off taking my chances.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17- Yeah.- Mm-hm.- But you are a fan of horror films, so...
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Yeah. So if that comes up somehow...
0:20:20 > 0:20:23Sport it is. Ayaz, do you want to go first or second?
0:20:23 > 0:20:25I'll go first.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Here we go with your first question. In which of the following
0:20:32 > 0:20:36do competitors use a piece of equipment made up of four parts -
0:20:36 > 0:20:40the point or tip, the barrel, the shaft, and the flights?
0:20:43 > 0:20:47In which of the following do competitors use a piece of equipment
0:20:47 > 0:20:50made up of four parts - the point or tip, the barrel,
0:20:50 > 0:20:52the shaft, and the flights?
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Erm...
0:20:57 > 0:21:00- I'll go with darts. - Darts is quite right, well done.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03- Yay! - That's good, your sister's cheering.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06You would have liked that question, Judith.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08I think I would have got it...
0:21:08 > 0:21:10- Got it right or wrong?- Right!
0:21:10 > 0:21:12I think you would have had an answer to it.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16OK, here is your question. In the laws of association football,
0:21:16 > 0:21:20the backpass rule puts restrictions on which member of a team
0:21:20 > 0:21:25when the ball is passed to them by one of their team-mates?
0:21:25 > 0:21:26Can you say all of that again?
0:21:26 > 0:21:30I will. In the laws of association football,
0:21:30 > 0:21:35the backpass rule puts restrictions on which member of a team
0:21:35 > 0:21:38when the ball is passed to them by one of their team-mates?
0:21:41 > 0:21:43I need the pepper pots, I think.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50I don't really understand the question, that's the awful thing.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52I'm going to say the goalkeeper.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Yeah, I think maybe the word "association" was throwing you.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56It's just basically football.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00Goalkeeper's right. You can't pick it up if it is passed back to you
0:22:00 > 0:22:04- by one of your own players. - Yeah.- Because it stops time-wasting.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07- Oh, I see. - Ayaz, Richie Woodall has won
0:22:07 > 0:22:11an Olympic medal and a world title in which sport?
0:22:15 > 0:22:19Just guessing here, but athletics?
0:22:19 > 0:22:20- It's boxing.- Oh.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26Judith, what is the technical term for the net at the
0:22:26 > 0:22:29top of a lacrosse stick?
0:22:32 > 0:22:36Oh, that's interesting. I don't think it's the sleeve,
0:22:36 > 0:22:38because it doesn't look like a sleeve.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41I think it's most likely to be a pocket.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43It is a pocket. Well, you used to play lacrosse?
0:22:43 > 0:22:45I did, but we didn't talk about the pocket.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49You didn't have a pocket when you played?
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Well, yes, it had a pocket, and now I know I had a pocket,
0:22:52 > 0:22:53but I didn't know that I had a pocket!
0:22:53 > 0:22:55- No.- If you understand my drift.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57The pocket was not really something that...
0:22:57 > 0:23:00- I just called it a net, I think. - Yes.- Exactly.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03So Judith is in the lead, Ayaz.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06It's not a crisis, but it's getting closer to being one.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09If you get this wrong,
0:23:09 > 0:23:12you'll be down to just your sister in the final.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16And she would really like company. OK?
0:23:16 > 0:23:20Here's your question. Which American professional basketball team
0:23:20 > 0:23:23can trace its origins back to the 1940s,
0:23:23 > 0:23:26when it was known as the Syracuse Nationals?
0:23:31 > 0:23:37I don't watch basketball, so a guess again, it's going to have to be.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40- Philadelphia 76ers. - What do you think, Challengers?
0:23:40 > 0:23:43- Possibly?- Yeah, you like it?
0:23:43 > 0:23:47They like it here. And you're right, it is the Philadelphia 76ers.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50- I should play the lottery. - JEREMY LAUGHS
0:23:50 > 0:23:54So, interesting - Judith, get this one right, you're in the final.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58On Sport, and that's when we have the thing when we do
0:23:58 > 0:24:00- the ticker tape coming down. - Yeah, the glitter from the ceiling.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Exactly, and dancers come out.
0:24:02 > 0:24:07The Cesarewitch Handicap is run each year at which racecourse?
0:24:11 > 0:24:14- I think it's Newmarket. - Have you been there?
0:24:14 > 0:24:16No, I haven't been. I hardly ever go racing.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19- The correct answer is Newmarket. - Phew!
0:24:19 > 0:24:21- Well done, Judith, you've won on Sport. Very good.- Yippee!
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Won again, because you've been playing well on Sport recently.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27Ayaz, beaten by our Egghead, and trouble in the final
0:24:27 > 0:24:29for our Challengers, but not out of reach by any means.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32Please return to us. We'll play the final round.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36So, this is what we have been playing towards, it is time
0:24:36 > 0:24:39for the final round which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42But, I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be
0:24:42 > 0:24:46allowed to take part in this round so, all from this side, I'm afraid,
0:24:46 > 0:24:50it's Ayaz and Abdul and Connor and Aswad from Too Tricky 5 Me.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54Would you please now leave the studio?
0:24:54 > 0:24:58Shazia, you are playing to win Too Tricky 5 Me £3,000.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Lisa, Steve, Pat, Chris and Judith,
0:25:01 > 0:25:03you're playing for something that money can't buy -
0:25:03 > 0:25:05the Eggheads' precious reputation.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09This time, they are all General Knowledge.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12You can confer. I'm sorry that doesn't help you.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16Shazia, the question is, can your one brain defeat these five
0:25:16 > 0:25:20in a famous victory which will be talked about at your school forever?
0:25:20 > 0:25:21Would you like to go first or second?
0:25:21 > 0:25:23First, please.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29And here is your first question.
0:25:29 > 0:25:33Which of these is the name for a purplish shade of blue?
0:25:38 > 0:25:42- I think it's laurel. - Eggheads, do you know?
0:25:42 > 0:25:45- Cornflower.- Cornflower. - Yeah, cornflower was the answer.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48- OK. - Purplish shade of blue - cornflower.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50OK, Eggs, your question.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Which London street leads from Trafalgar Square
0:25:53 > 0:25:55to Buckingham Palace?
0:25:58 > 0:26:03- The Mall.- The Mall? - The Mall.- The Mall. Indeed.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06- That's The Mall, Jeremy. - It is The Mall.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Back to you. On a standard UK Monopoly board,
0:26:09 > 0:26:13which corner square is diagonally opposite Free Parking?
0:26:16 > 0:26:19- Go. It's Go. - Well done, you play?
0:26:19 > 0:26:23- Yay!- Go is right.- Thank you.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25- Played it recently? - I always play Monopoly.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27Yeah, it's a great... Still a great game. The streets in the one
0:26:27 > 0:26:30you play - are they Glasgow streets or London streets?
0:26:30 > 0:26:32I ordered a Glasgow street one, so that will be coming in soon.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34Brilliant.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37Eggheads, what would you be most likely to do in a French
0:26:37 > 0:26:40train carriage known as a wagon-lit?
0:26:40 > 0:26:41Sleep.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46- Have a kip.- You can do whatever you like in a wagon-lit,
0:26:46 > 0:26:49- but it's go to sleep. - The mind boggles what you would do.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52So, "lit" is French for bed, so it's go to sleep.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Go to sleep is right.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58So they're ahead, two points to one.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01- You have to get this one right, or the contest is over, OK?- OK.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Rooting for you here.
0:27:03 > 0:27:08In the UK, road signs giving directions on non-primary and
0:27:08 > 0:27:12local routes usually have what colour borders?
0:27:15 > 0:27:18- Local routes?- Yeah.- Brown.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21Brown is your answer.
0:27:21 > 0:27:22- It's not, though, it's black.- Oh!
0:27:22 > 0:27:26Directions on non-primary and local routes have black borders.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28- OK.- Sorry, Shazia.- It's OK.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31We have to say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38- And you did those children in your class very proud.- I hope so.
0:27:38 > 0:27:41I think the local... It's the brown ones are sightseeing.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43- Are they the tourist attractions, the brown ones?- Yeah.- OK.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46- Yeah. But I hope you enjoyed that. - I did, thank you.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49Great to have you all in, and bad luck to Too Tricky 5 Me.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52Here are the Eggheads, doing what they do,
0:27:52 > 0:27:54and a bit unstoppable at the moment, aren't they?

0:27:56 > 0:27:58- OK, congratulations. - They love to quiz.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00Oh, don't congratulate them - that'll make it worse.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03They reign supreme over Quizland once again, and it means,
0:28:03 > 0:28:06I'm afraid, you won't be going home with £3,000.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08- OK.- So we will roll that money over to our next show.
