Episode 61 Eggheads

These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

Together they make up the Eggheads,

arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

The question is, can they be beaten?

Welcome to Eggheads, the show were a team of five quiz Challengers pit

their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

They are the Eggheads.

Taking on our quiz champions today are 19 in the Box from Hampshire.

Now, this team met at the Cottage Pub in Southampton where they play in a cribbage league

and they occasionally win the weekly pub quiz.

Let's meet them.

Hi, I'm Jason and I'm an HR recruitment adviser.

Hi, I'm Valerie, I'm a recruitment and resourcing consultant.

Hi, I'm Gaynor, I'm a human resources manager.

Hi, I'm Dave and I'm a civil servant.

Hi, I'm Andrew and I'm a fruit farmer.

-So, Jason and team, hello. ALL:

-Hello, Jeremy.

Great to have you here and it's all about cribbage, this,

-isn't it, Jason?

-It is, yeah, absolutely.

Yeah, we're a cribbage team.

We've only been playing it fairly recently but we love it.

It's one of those games that can be frustrating.

It's like a game of golf, you know?

If you don't get the right hands, there's not a lot you can do about it,

but it's just a fantastic game to play.

And so 19 in the Box would be a cribbage term?

It is. In terms of cribbage, you can't score 19 points.

You can score anything between one and 29 points

-apart from 19, 25, 26 and 27.

-OK.

And it's an in-joke with cribbage fans around the country that

if you've got zero in your hand or in the box, you've got 19.

-You know, cos it sounds less painful, doesn't it, than saying, "I've got nothing."

-OK.

-Are they quite complicated, the rules?

-They can be at first, to get your head round,

but once you're up and running with them,

because there are various scoring sequences,

you've scored for the hand that you have cos you're all dealt a hand.

And they have this thing called the box as well.

You all put a card into the box.

-Yeah.

-You can score points for that as well.

But the delight in the game is in the pegging.

So you have pegging in the game so you can peg ahead.

You can be level-pegging and peg back.

-Is that where we get level-pegging from?

-I suspect it is because it is quite an old game, cribbage.

How interesting, OK. Well, good luck pegging this lot back over here, Challengers.

We wish you well. Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs,

but if the Challengers fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to our next show.

Now, 19 in the Box, they haven't quite won 19 in a row,

they've won the last eight,

so that's why they are looking a little bit smug, to be fair.

And it means you've got to stop them

so they don't get above themselves.

There's £9,000 if you win.

Would you like to try?

-Yeah.

-Yes.

-Brilliant!

The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Geography.

So it's one of you against either

Lisa, Beth, Barry, Pat or Chris.

-Who's a Geography waller?

-Oh, dear.

Geography has quite a lot of things other than just

-sort of straight "where are things?"

-What about you, Geography?

I can have a go but if there's thing's like the areas of countries,

I just don't know what I'm talking about there.

Take us off to a flying start, Valerie.

-OK.

-We believe in you.

-Valerie.

All right, Valerie.

On Geography, our recruitment and resourcing consultant

against which Egghead? You've got the choice of any one of them.

Right, OK. Apparently, Barry's been to every single answer,

-so we'll avoid Barry.

-He has been to every answer, that's true.

That's what we've heard. What about Lisa?

Lisa, I suspect knowledge of Australia, maybe?

-Yeah?

-You watch the show!

-Well, I think that's throwing the gauntlet down a little, don't you?

Did you say there are areas of the country you don't know much about, Valerie?

We're going to get on fine!

-Right, OK.

-That's cool, then.

-All right.

-OK.

-Good stuff.

So it's going to be Valerie from 19 in the Box versus Lisa,

known as Lost in France, from the Eggheads.

To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in our Question Room.

Well, Lisa, we've had our moments on Geography, haven't we?

-So many, Jeremy, so many.

-And we've sorted out Australia now?

Ish... You were saying Lost in France,

I've now just opened my mind to a whole load of

geographical musically-related puns.

You know, Vienna means nothing to me.

You know I'm riding on the Marrakech Express...

-I could go on.

-So, yeah, we could...

For the Geography rounds, you could be "Vienna It Means Nothing To Me" Lisa.

That's true!

All right, so, Valerie,

Geography is the subject and would you like to go first or second

-against our Lisa?

-I'll go first, please, Jeremy.

They're cheering you on here.

Scafell Pike is a mountain in which part of the UK?

Valerie, is it...?

Um...

It's...

..going to be the Lake District, Jeremy.

Lake District is right.

-Thank you.

-Well done.

Lisa.

What is the approximate population of the US state of Hawaii?

OK, so the US,

there's about 300 million people in the US

and there's no way that nearly half of them would fit on Hawaii.

That's fairly safe to rule out.

I think even 14 would be pushing it.

The general rule with population

is it's much fewer people than you think

in any one place apart from about six countries,

all of which you should be able to identify if you're a quizzer.

I'll go with 1.4 million.

Indeed, 1.4 million is right.

Valerie, which of these African countries is landlocked?

Ooh.

Well, it's definitely not Tunisia

cos that's got a coastline on the Mediterranean.

I think Angola borders the Atlantic?

So I'll go with Mali.

-Perfect answer, well done, Mali it is.

-Phew!

Lisa.

The town of Dudley lies approximately

ten miles northwest of which British city?

You're not doing the pronunciation quite right, Jeremy,

cos I think the locals pronounce it a bit closer to Dud-lay.

Erm, although that's pretty appalling as well.

With apologies to all residents of Dudley, the answer is Birmingham.

Birmingham is right. Dud-lay.

Over to you, Valerie.

2-2. Here's your question, see if you can take the lead.

Which sea lies between Borneo and the Philippines?

Ooh, this is a tricky one.

I-I don't think it's going to be the Sea of Japan because

Japan's not been mentioned.

I've not really heard of the other two seas.

Erm...

I'll go for the Sulu Sea.

OK. Eggheads?

-Yes, correct.

-That's right.

-Sulu Sea is right.

-Oh, well done!

-Well done, you!

To stay in, Lisa.

In which town might you visit the oriental landscaped gardens of Peasholm Park?

Ooh, ooh. Lucky, very lucky, Lisa.

Peasholm Park hold a sort of annual festival every year where they

re-enact naval battles

on the ponds and lakes that are within the gardens.

And it's quite a big attraction.

I happen to know it's in Scarborough.

It is in Scarborough, well done.

So, you've both had a perfect round so far,

three each after three questions.

Valerie, we go to Sudden Death, OK?

-It gets a bit harder because I don't give you different options.

-No.

-Here we go.

Which body of water in Venezuela is said to be the largest natural lake in South America?

I really... I can't think of any lakes in South America

apart from Lake Titicaca and I know that's not in Venezuela.

Um...

That will have to be my answer because I don't know, I'm afraid, Jeremy.

-OK, Eggheads? Do you know?

-It's Lake Maracaibo.

Lake Maracaibo.

Where is Lake Titicaca?

Between Peru and Bolivia.

-Have you been there, Barry?

-I have.

Every... He's been everywhere!

So, Valerie, there's a chance

with that wrong answer for Lisa to take the round.

What is the capital and largest city of Costa Rica?

Is it San Juan or San Jose?

Tell Barry just to put his head in his hands and get it over with.

I'll go with San Jose.

-HE WHISPERS:

-Yes!

San Jose?

-Yeah.

-As opposed to San Juan?

Yeah.

You do know the way to San Jose, you're quite right,

well done. You had me confused there, my goodness.

San Jose is right. Well done, Lisa.

-Ahh!

-Sorry, Valerie.

-Ah, never mind, Valerie!

You nearly got her confused there,

but you have been beaten by our Egghead. It's only round one. Come back to us, we'll play on.

OK, so a difficult the start for 19 in the Box.

They've lost one brain from the final round.

The Eggheads have not lost any yet and we play on with Music.

Oh, Music.

Jason and team, who wants this?

-Yeah.

-Erm, Andrew?

-If you want me to, Jase.

-Yeah.

-Yeah?

-Why not?

-OK.

-Dazzle them with your shirt!

-All right, then.

-Andrew, our fruit farmer,

and who would you like to pick?

-What about Chris?

-OK.

Chris loves his music.

Loves modern music, loves a bit of Kanye.

-Spice Girls?

-Maybe not.

Andrew from 19 in the Box versus Chris from the Eggheads.

To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.

I like the top you're wearing, Andrew.

-It's strawberries, Jeremy.

-Yeah, well, I can see that!

Yeah, and I'm thinking a fruit farmer would, you know,

that perfectly describes you.

We do grow a of strawberries.

I won't do any puns on fruit farming cos I know that I'll just get a

raspberry from the Eggheads if I did that.

THEY ALL GROAN

Andrew, on music against Chris,

would you like to go first or second?

Could I go first, please, Jeremy?

The fun we have here. OK, your question.

Which of these pop stars is the youngest?

Uh, well it's definitely not Robbie Williams

cos he was around when I was slightly younger than I am now.

Erm...

Harry Styles is obviously One Direction.

Olly Murs was X Factor or something like that.

I'll go for Harry Styles, please.

-Harry Styles is quite right, well done.

-Come on! Off to a flyer.

Chris.

The musical act Jamiroquai is most associated with which of these genres of music?

Ah, well, Jamiroquai...

Yeah, I don't think they're exactly hip-hop

and they're certainly not heavy metal,

so I think they come under the catch-all title of funk.

Funk is correct, well done.

Andrew.

Clair de Lune is a famous piece of music by which composer?

Er, I have heard of it

but I couldn't tell you who composed it,

so I'm going straight down the middle and say Mozart.

-No!

-Oh!

Challengers, do you know?

-Think it's Debussy.

-Debussy!

-Yeah.

Andrew, sorry, it's Debussy not Mozart.

So Chris has the chance to take the lead.

What was the singer Tom Jones's surname at birth?

He's Tom Woodward.

He is Tom Woodward.

I didn't know that.

So Chris pulls ahead and you need to get this one right, Andrew.

Come on, Andrew.

Formed in the 1950s in Manchester, a childhood band called The Rattlesnakes

subsequently evolved into chart-topping group?

Er, well I'd assume it's too early for Queen,

and the Bee Gees did start off in the '60s but were big in the '70s...

No!

..although they were big in the late '60s.

I'd go for the Who.

-No!

-Oh!

Let's just see, any Challengers know this, what do we think?

Um, The Who were West London, I think.

Yeah that's right, it's...

-the location is crucial here, so The Who were not Manchester.

-No.

So you're then left, obviously, Queen are later, as you say.

It's the Bee Gees.

Andrew, so sorry, Chris has won that one.

And he's gone into the final on Music.

Come back to us, please, both of you and we will play round three.

So 19 in the Box have lost two brains from the final round.

If this were cribbage, you'd still have a good chance, wouldn't you?

-Yeah, yeah, there's always a chance to peg it back.

-That's it.

Exactly, so we're going to peg it back now.

The Eggheads are all still sitting there, they are on this run as well,

it's a perfect time to stop them in their tracks.

And the next subject for you is History.

-Oh!

-Who's the historian?

It's got to be you, Jason.

-It would have been...

-It would have been mine.

-OK.

How are you with History? Or should it be me?

-Uh, it just depends what it is.

-I'm very, very bracketed.

I mean obviously, my degree, it was only Modern History, so...

-Yeah, that's where I struggle.

-I think the captain's going to take one for the team.

OK if you've got a degree in History,

I think that probably does choose it.

It doesn't mean a thing.

So you can have, let's see, any of the three in the middle,

so that's Beth and Barry and Pat.

Oh, no.

They're all...they're all super sharp.

-Um... Yep.

-What do you think?

-Maybe Beth?

-Beth, yeah.

-Put Beth through her paces?

Yeah, go on, yeah.

-Beth.

-OK, Jason from 19 in the Box to take on Beth on History.

Please go to the Question Room.

So you once served the former goalkeeper Bruce Grobbelaar in a pub, Jason.

I did yeah, yeah.

Did you have some incident when you gave him the change?

Yeah, I mean, I'm from Liverpool, I'm a big Liverpool fan.

He came in a couple of years after his retirement but he bought some

drinks, and I went to give him his change

and it just went straight through his hands and dropped to the floor

and without thinking I just went straight away, "Well, you'll never make a keeper, will you?"

JEREMY LAUGHS Brilliant.

Good luck, Jason, against Beth. Would you like to go first or second?

I think, well, get it out of the way, I'd like to go first please, if that's OK?

Here we go, winning one back for the Challengers.

Which of these conflicts, Jason, took place first?

OK. Right,

well, the First Boer War was late 19th century,

Crimean War around the 1840s so it's got to be the English Civil Wars.

-Absolutely right, English Civil Wars.

-Yep.

Beth.

The medieval weapon known as the ballista was a giant version of what?

SHE GROANS

I don't think there'd be a giant axe,

you'd still have to wield an axe.

Can't even get it from the language clues.

I'm going to go with crossbow.

Yeah, I suppose the idea of ballistic and

all that would suggest some sort of projectile, doesn't it?

-Crossbow is right.

-Oh!

-OK, Jason.

-OK.

The Louisiana Purchase, the historic land deal in which the United States acquired over

500 million acres of land from the French government, took place in which year?

OK, I get the impression that 1603

was probably far too early on that one.

Potentially could be 1703...

..but it's more likely to have been 1803, I think.

Let me just think about this.

Uh, 1703, 1803...

I'm going to go 1803.

Yeah, let's check this with the Eggheads.

I suppose the logic is, it's got to be after the US became a country.

-Eggheads?

-Yes, it was linked...

I think the deal was negotiated by Thomas Jefferson,

who bought it off Napoleon who was short of money at the time,

which is why he had to sell it.

-So we go 1803, do we?

-Mm-hm.

1803 is the right answer, Jason.

-Oh, come on!

-Well done, come on!

Two out of two. Good. OK, Beth your question.

In which country did Henry V die in 1422 after becoming ill while on campaign?

I think he...

..was ill in France.

France is correct. 2-2.

-All right, your third question now, Jason, can be crucial.

-OK.

Italica, an ancient site in southern Spain, was the birthplace of which of these Roman emperors?

OK. Can you spell Italica for me?

Yeah, just I-T-A-L-I-C-A.

I've got something that's telling me that it's likely to be Trajan?

Trajan.

-I'm going to go with Trajan, yeah.

-Trajan, OK.

Your team-mates know. Do you know?

We think Trajan sounds right.

They like Trajan and Trajan is correct, well done.

-Yes!

-Good man.

OK, Beth, to stay in.

The chief magistrate Cleisthenes is regarded as the founder of democracy in which Greek city-state?

Oh, they were all city-states as well.

Can I have the question again, please, Jeremy?

The chief magistrate Cleisthenes is regarded as the founder of democracy

in which Greek city-state?

I'm going to have to go with Athens.

I don't really know.

It's good that you did cos Athens is the right answer.

-Three questions each, scores are level. Sorry, Jason.

-OK.

It's not going to be that straightforward, I'm afraid,

we go to Sudden Death

and it gets a little bit harder because I don't give you alternatives.

-OK.

-Here we go.

The humorist and songwriter Tom Lehrer declared that political satire became obsolete

when which US statesman was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in the 1970s?

The only one that's springing to mind is, er, Henry Kissinger?

Henry Kissinger is the right answer, brilliant.

-Come on!

-Oh, well done, Jase!

So, Beth, to stay in.

The Tripartite Aggression and Kadesh Operation

are names associated with which major event of the 20th century?

There's a lot of history in the 20th century.

First World War?

-No, no, it's...that's quite a long way off.

-Ah.

-It's actually the Suez Crisis...

-Oh, OK. Yeah.

..because the Tripartite is the UK, France and Israel

and Operation Kadesh was the codename of the Israeli invasion.

-Could have accepted Sinai War as well.

-Fair enough.

-So Suez Crisis is the answer.

-Well done, Jason.

-Thank you.

-Into the final round, you've done it.

-Well done!

You maybe just may be turning things around for the Challengers. One more round to play before the final.

Jason and Beth please come and back and we'll play it.

So the comeback has started for 19 in the Box.

They have lost two brains, the Eggheads have now lost one though.

And the next subject for you is Film and TV.

So just this, it's going to be Gaynor or Dave.

It's film. Gaynor and Dave.

-Um, Gaynor, are you happy to take that?

-OK, yeah.

-Gayn, we're going to have Gayn.

-All right, and it's either Barry or Pat.

The brain or the shirt.

I think it's got to be shirt versus blouse.

I think it's going to be a mighty battle.

Yeah, we'll clash so why not?

All right, this could be a famous round.

Gaynor from 19 in the Box versus Barry from the Eggheads.

And just to ensure there is no conferring, for the last time, please go to our Question Room.

All right, so here we are, Film and TV.

Would you like to go first or second?

I'll go first, please.

Could be a pivotal moment here in what is already an exciting contest.

Your question, Gaynor.

Which long-running Saturday sports programme was first broadcast

in October 1958 with Peter Dimmock as presenter?

Ah, well, Saint and Greavsie I think was, um,

Ian St John and Jimmy Greaves,

and I think World of Sport was ITV

so I think it's Grandstand.

Grandstand is the right answer.

Hey, come on, yes!

Go, Gaynor!

Barry, Warmington on Sea was the setting for which TV sitcom?

Oh, a most wonderful sitcom

which truly epitomised British life in the '40s,

it was Dad's Army.

Dad's Army is quite right.

OK, back to you, Gaynor.

In which classic US TV series did Jaclyn Smith play the role of Kelly Garrett?

Uh, I did see some of Dallas,

I don't recall seeing her in that,

and I think Alias Smith and Jones was a Western,

erm, so I think it may be Charlie's Angels.

It is indeed Charlie's Angels, yes.

I so remember that from my childhood.

OK, Barry.

Which 1963 film was apparently envisioned with a modest budget of 2 million

but by the time it was completed had allegedly cost over 40 million, an enormous figure for that time?

I think one of those 40 million was the fee paid to the leading star,

Elizabeth Taylor.

I think that was Cleopatra.

Cleopatra's Right, well done.

All right, so where are we? 2-2. Come on, Gaynor.

-Come on, Gaynor.

-Willing you into the final here.

-Thank you.

F. Murray Abraham plays the role of Dar Adal in which TV drama series?

I actually haven't seen any of these, Jeremy, um,

but I think House of Cards

is a political drama.

I have no idea what Stranger Things is but I think Homeland is about

an American who comes back having converted to Islam so...

..I'll plump for Homeland.

It's funny, I've watched this a lot and I think there's no way of

guessing it. But you've got, in a sort of strangely logical way,

to the right answer.

Homeland is right.

OK, Barry, pressure on you now.

Victor Sifuentes, Michael Kuzak, Grace van Owen and Douglas Brackman were characters

in which TV series, Barry, first broadcast in the US in 1986?

Now I watched Hill Street Blues a lot

and I don't recall any of those names from it

but I do believe, erm, Grace Van Owen was in LA Law

so on that basis, I'll go for LA Law.

LA Law is correct, Barry.

OK, Gaynor, Sudden Death.

And I don't give you options, here's your question.

Which comedienne is the mother of the comedic actress Beattie Edmondson?

Well, I think her father's Ade Edmondson,

um, so I think it'll be Jennifer Saunders?

Brilliant quizzing.

Jennifer Saunders is right.

Cos it would have been easy just to draw a blank, there.

OK, Barry, to stay in.

In 2014, which comedian became the host of the TV panel show Duck Quacks Don't Echo?

Oh, gosh.

I-I am at a disadvantage here because I've never watched the show,

so I have no idea at all.

I really don't know so I shall pick a comedian out at random,

Hugh Dennis.

It's Lee Mack. You're out, Barry.

Well done, Gaynor. You've managed to level it up, that's brilliant,

brilliant quizzing by you. You are in the final round, Barry's not,

come back to us and we'll play the final for £9,000.

So this is what we have been playing towards,

it is time for the final round which as always is General Knowledge

but I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads

won't be allowed to take part in this round.

So it's Valerie and Andrew from 19 in the Box

but it's also Beth and Barry, the Bs, from the Eggheads.

Would you please now leave the studio?

Jason, Gaynor, Dave, you are playing to win 19 in the Box £9,000.

And that's, I'm guessing, more than the pay-out at cribbage.

-Oh, yes.

-Usually.

Lisa, Pat and Chris, you're playing for something that money can't buy,

which is to keep this run of yours, this amazing run, going.

As usual I will ask each team three questions in turn.

This time they're all General Knowledge and you may confer.

So, Challengers, the question is, can your three brains defeat these three?

You've done an amazing comeback here, let's just press on.

Would you like to go first or second?

-First?

-First, I'm thinking.

We'll go first, please, Jeremy.

OK, Dave and team, here we go.

The actor Robert Carlyle was born in which city in 1961?

-THEY CONFER:

-Glasgow. Scottish.

-Glasgow, I think.

Yeah.

We'll go for Glasgow, Jeremy.

-Glasgow is the right answer.

-Ah, come on!

All right, one point to our Challengers.

Eggheads, your first question.

On a standard Qwerty keyboard, which letter sits between the Z and the C?

-THEY CONFER:

-X.

-X, yeah.

-Bottom row.

-Z, X, C, V, B, N, M.

-I'm sure it's X.

-Yeah.

It's not U, the U's on the top.

-And so is the P.

-Yeah, yeah, you're right.

We think that's X.

X is right. Well done, one each.

-Oof, it's tense here, isn't it?

-Yeah.

£9,000 we're playing for.

Final round. 19 in the Box, your question.

Who won a Best Original Song Oscar in 2001 for the film Wonder Boys?

-I don't think it...

-I don't know,

I d-don't really know it.

I don't recall Bob Dylan winning an Oscar.

No. I don't know much about Bruce Springsteen

-but I know Randy Newman...

-Randy Newman's done films...

He's done, he has, Thomas Newman has...

THEY CONFER

-Yeah, I'd be tempted to go for Randy Newman myself.

-Yeah.

Bob Dylan's far too cool for that, isn't he?

He is, yeah. Randy Newman?

Jeremy, on the process of elimination

of the two who we don't think it is,

we're going to go for Randy Newman.

-Let's check with the Eggheads.

-I think it's Bob Dylan.

I think it might be a song called something like Things Have Changed,

some title like that.

Yes, it is called Things Have Changed, Bob Dylan is the answer.

Oh!

OK, not over.

Eggheads, which major US city lies on the shores of Puget Sound?

P-U-G-E-T.

-THEY CONFER:

-Seattle.

-Do you know, I might even have got that on my own,

-yeah, Seattle.

-Seattle?

We think that's Seattle.

Seattle is correct.

So they've taken the lead. You've got to get this one right.

-Come on, guys.

-Don't give up, come on.

In Greek mythology, which goddess helped Paris to steal Helen of Troy away from her husband Menelaus?

Well, Aphrodite was the goddess of love, wasn't she?

-Was she?

-Yeah, yes.

On the basis that it's

to do with stealing the woman away and it's to do with love...

I don't know, is that tenuous?

I don't know. If we don't know,

first inclination was Aphrodite only because of the love interest.

You're happy to go with it? You're the spokesman now.

-Yeah, you choose.

-I'm the spokesman, I'm not the decision-maker!

-Gaynor.

-Oh! OK.

Aphrodite.

Jeremy, we're not sure,

but we're going to go for Aphrodite.

-Aphrodite is correct.

-Oh!

-Oh!

Tenuous but true.

Well done, you did it.

So you're level but the Eggheads can

take the whole contest with this one question.

Finland Station, the site of Lenin's 1970s return to Russia after exile in Switzerland,

is a major railway terminus in which city?

-THEY CONFER:

-St Petersburg?

-I think it's Saint Petersburg, yeah.

I'm never arguing with you on railway termini, Chris.

-Yeah, that'd be Saint Petersburg, wouldn't it?

-I think it is.

Well, he came from Switzerland up through Germany in a sealed

train and then across to Sweden and then

-this extraordinary roundabout trip.

-Yeah.

He came down from Finland and arrived in St Petersburg.

-Yeah.

-Makes sense.

-Yeah.

The legend is, he was disguised as a fireman on the train, but he wasn't.

-I think it was completely sealed, wasn't it?

-Yeah.

-A strange thing.

-Yeah?

-I'll take that.

-Yeah.

We think that's St Petersburg.

The correct answer is St Petersburg.

We say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won.

And when they give you the story...

-They know!

-You know it's...

You know it's going to be right, yeah.

As soon as I heard the word railway, I thought,

-"Chris is going to get this."

-Yep.

-He loves his trains.

-So commiserations to our cribbage players and brilliant quizzers, 19 in the Box.

-Thank you.

Bad luck. The Eggheads are doing this a lot at the moment actually, the winning streak continues,

they've done what comes naturally and it does mean that you're not going home with the £9,000

so we will roll that money over to our next show.

Eggheads, well done, you lost two today,

but my goodness, you are storming it!

Let's see what happens next time.

A new team of Challengers will be here and the jackpot will be £10,000.

I know you love it when we get to ten.

Until then, goodbye.
