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 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz Challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:34They are the Eggheads. Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed!
0:00:34 > 0:00:37- Yes!- Always. - Well, possibly the other way around.
0:00:37 > 0:00:41Challenging our resident quiz champions today are David's WImmin
0:00:41 > 0:00:43from Derbyshire. Now, this team met through their involvement
0:00:43 > 0:00:47with The Women's Institute, so let's meet them!
0:00:47 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Chrissie, and I'm a retired medical rep.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Hello, I'm David, and I'm a retired civil servant.
0:00:54 > 0:00:59Hello, I'm Linda, and I'm a retired insurance underwriter.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Sheila. I'm retired police staff.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Hello, I'm Diane. I'm a retired primary school headteacher.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11- So Chrissie and team, hello. - Hello!- Great to see you all!
0:01:11 > 0:01:14And I suppose I should ask about the team name, Chrissie, David's WImmin?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17- Yes.- That's David there.- It is!
0:01:17 > 0:01:18Yes!
0:01:18 > 0:01:20Yes, how did I do that?
0:01:21 > 0:01:26Well, we wanted to quiz as a team with the Women's Institute.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28And we actually needed a name
0:01:28 > 0:01:31that had W and I in capital letters in it.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34- Yes.- But we also needed a bit of moral support,
0:01:34 > 0:01:37which is why we are David's WImmin.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Do you quiz together, Chrissie? That's the key question.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44- Yes, we do.- Occasionally.- We haven't actually quizzed collectively.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46So this one's a first.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49But we have quizzed in groups at certain things as well.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Right, well, that sounds particularly menacing.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53I think that's already frightened them.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55And there is a wealth of experience
0:01:55 > 0:01:58I can see on our Challengers team. Good luck to you.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00- Thank you. - Hope you win here. Every day,
0:02:00 > 0:02:03there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:02:05 > 0:02:07the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Now, David's WImmin, the Challengers won the last game.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Now, the Eggheads have had a tough old period, actually,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16and they were comprehensively out-quizzed in the last game,
0:02:16 > 0:02:19so there's £1,000 for you if you win today.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21- Would you like to try? - We certainly would!
0:02:21 > 0:02:24I thought so! The first head-to-head battle
0:02:24 > 0:02:26is on the subject of Film & TV.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30So, one of you, please, to go in against David, Lisa, Steve, Kevin,
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- or Judith. - Who was it on Film & TV?
0:02:33 > 0:02:36Was it me? It might be me, yes!
0:02:36 > 0:02:40- It might be me.- OK, Diane, our retired primary school headteacher,
0:02:40 > 0:02:41against which Egghead?
0:02:44 > 0:02:45I'm trying to think...
0:02:45 > 0:02:48- It's not easy, is it?- No, it isn't.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51A lot of them, they spend time sitting around watching box sets.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Yes, I think they all do, don't they?
0:02:54 > 0:02:57- They do, yes.- They all do that, and they're all good on...
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Go up against your favourite, then.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02I'll go up against Kevin, then, in that case.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04It's a very good strategy! Get into the booth with Kevin.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06- Take him out! - I'll take him down, yeah.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08A bit of a cold start for Kevin, yeah.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12So Diane from David's WImmin taking on Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Let's see what happens here. To ensure there's no conferring,
0:03:15 > 0:03:18would you please take your positions in our legendary Question Room?
0:03:19 > 0:03:23So, Diane, you've been a life model, I gather, as well as a headteacher?
0:03:23 > 0:03:28Yes, yes. I started life modelling when I was a student,
0:03:28 > 0:03:31because it paid more money than anything else.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34And then when I retired as a headteacher,
0:03:34 > 0:03:36I actually went back to it.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39My daughter saw an advert in one of the local papers and said,
0:03:39 > 0:03:41"This would suit you, Mum." So I went back to it,
0:03:41 > 0:03:44and I only stopped when the floors got too cold.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45JEREMY LAUGHS
0:03:45 > 0:03:48That's brilliant! Would you consider that, Kevin?
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Some life... I suppose we're talking about nude modelling here?
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Yeah, well, no.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55My days of doing that are passed, really, Jeremy.
0:03:55 > 0:03:56You did it as a student as well.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Whatever the demand may be, I'm afraid, no.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01But if enough people asked, you'd consider it?
0:04:01 > 0:04:02No.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04So Film & TV, Diane. Your choice -
0:04:04 > 0:04:07would you like to go first or second against the great Kevin?
0:04:07 > 0:04:09I think I'll have to go first, please.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Here we go. Richard Osman has found fame as one of the presenters
0:04:16 > 0:04:18of which quiz show?
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Well, Tipping Point is somebody else.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29The Chase is Bradley Walsh,
0:04:29 > 0:04:32so it must be Pointless!
0:04:32 > 0:04:34Now, is Tipping Point Ben Shephard?
0:04:34 > 0:04:35- Yes.- Yes, it is, yeah.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Pointless is the right answer.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40- Well done! - Richard Osman's mum, by the way,
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Richard Osman's mum is a massive fan of this show.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44So, Richard Osman's mum, hi.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46- We think you're great. - Yeah, hi, Richard Osman's mum,
0:04:46 > 0:04:48because he was on Have I Got News For You, and he said
0:04:48 > 0:04:51the only way she would ever allow the use of nuclear weapons
0:04:51 > 0:04:53- is if they cancelled Eggheads.- Yeah.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Thank you, Richard, we love you!
0:04:57 > 0:05:00OK, Kevin. "Nobody puts Baby in a corner,"
0:05:00 > 0:05:02is a famous line from which film?
0:05:07 > 0:05:11Yes, it's had a bit of a revival in 2017 because it was the
0:05:11 > 0:05:1530th anniversary, so there a stage version and all sorts of things.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17It's Dirty Dancing.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19Dirty Dancing is correct.
0:05:19 > 0:05:24OK, Diane. Who was the director of the 2017 film Alien Covenant?
0:05:29 > 0:05:33Right, this is the bit where you've got me. Erm...
0:05:33 > 0:05:35I think Ridley Scott did the first Alien.
0:05:37 > 0:05:38And the other two, I don't know.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41So I'm going to go with Ridley Scott,
0:05:41 > 0:05:43just because I think he did the first Alien.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Yeah, he's still got a grip on the franchise.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Ridley Scott is right. Well done. Good quizzing.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50- Wow!- Nicely done.
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Kevin, in which year was the TV series Gardeners' World
0:05:54 > 0:05:56first broadcast on UK TV?
0:05:57 > 0:05:58To keep up.
0:06:04 > 0:06:05First broadcast on TV?
0:06:05 > 0:06:08UK TV, Gardeners' World.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12I don't really know, to be honest. I know I'll rule out the 1940s.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14But as between the... I don't know how long it's been going.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Gardeners' World...
0:06:18 > 0:06:20I'm trying to think if it was on back in the '70s.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24It's a long time, if it is.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Would it have started in the '80s, though?
0:06:30 > 0:06:33It's not something I would normally do, the gardening stuff,
0:06:33 > 0:06:36so it's not something that I would have registered.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Gardeners' World...
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Cos we've had Gardeners' Question Time on radio for a long, long time.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49When would they have started a TV show?
0:06:52 > 0:06:55I'll say the 1980s.
0:06:55 > 0:06:56Oh, Kevin!
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Judith... Well, Judith knows this.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Yes, cos 2017 was their 50th anniversary,
0:07:01 > 0:07:04and there's been a great deal of fuss about it.
0:07:04 > 0:07:05- With Monty Don.- Yeah, I think
0:07:05 > 0:07:09it might have been 1968, for some reason. But it was...
0:07:09 > 0:07:11No, 1967.
0:07:11 > 0:07:12Yes, well...
0:07:12 > 0:07:16Confusingly, in 2017, I was asked to give a birthday wish for their 50th.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18- So...- Ah, right.- Anyway...
0:07:18 > 0:07:20- I saw you doing it.- Yeah!
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Kevin, the key thing is, you got it wrong.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24- 1960s.- Yeah, just couldn't conjure up anybody from...
0:07:24 > 0:07:26I was trying to think in terms of presenters,
0:07:26 > 0:07:28and I couldn't conjure up anybody from them.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30It's the 50th birthday, that's the key thing.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- That's the big news story.- Right. - All right, this is interesting.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35Maybe this gamble has paid off
0:07:35 > 0:07:36for you, Diane. Get this one right,
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- you're in the final round, and you've knocked out Kevin.- Ooh!
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Which superhero is played on TV by Finn Jones?
0:07:47 > 0:07:52I have absolutely no idea, and can I apologise now to my grandsons,
0:07:52 > 0:07:54who will know this?
0:07:56 > 0:07:57Finn Jones...
0:07:58 > 0:08:00I don't know any of those people,
0:08:00 > 0:08:06so I could go down the right-hand side and do a Judith, I don't know.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08I think I'll go down the middle and say Daredevil.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11- Kevin, do you know this? - I think it's Luke Cage.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13- No, it's not. It's Iron Fist.- Oh!
0:08:13 > 0:08:16- Iron Fist.- Oh, yes! Sorry, sorry.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Not on form at the moment, Kevin.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20No, no. I do know that really, but I just...
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- I snatched at that one. Yeah, sorry. - OK. So to stay in, Kevin,
0:08:24 > 0:08:28your question. Who plays Peter Quill's father in the 2017 film,
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Guardians Of The Galaxy Volume 2?
0:08:35 > 0:08:40I think he's meant to be a planet in human form. it's Kurt Russell.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Kurt Russell is correct.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Oh, Diane! Maybe you let him off the hook there.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47- Oh! Sorry! Sorry, Team! - Not many of these chances come.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Don't worry, you're not out.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Not yet, that's for sure. It's Sudden Death now.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53It gets a bit harder - I don't give you alternatives.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55- Yes.- So, Diane, your first question.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59Which British model plays the role of the Splendid Angharad in the
0:08:59 > 0:09:022015 film Mad Max Fury Road?
0:09:04 > 0:09:08Again, I have absolutely no idea, but if it's a British model...
0:09:11 > 0:09:13..I'm going to say Kate Moss!
0:09:13 > 0:09:14It's not Kate Moss.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- It's Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. - I wouldn't have got that.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Quite hard. I've seen that film, I wouldn't know that.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21- I wouldn't have got that. - Kevin, for the round.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Which influential BBC executive and broadcaster was
0:09:24 > 0:09:27nicknamed "Botney" by Private Eye magazine?
0:09:27 > 0:09:31Well, I think it's just a... I'm assuming that's B-O-T-N-E-Y.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- Yeah.- So it's just a kind of inversion of his name - Alan Yentob.
0:09:34 > 0:09:35Alan Yentob is right.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38The idea being that he had been called Botney but reversed his name
0:09:38 > 0:09:40- to appear more exotic.- Mm.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Kevin, you have taken the round, with Alan Yentob.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45What about that? It's not happened before.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Sorry, Diane, knocked out,
0:09:47 > 0:09:48but it is early days for our Challengers.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51- Never mind.- Come back to us, please, and we'll play on.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Ah, just a near miss there for David's WImmin in the first round,
0:09:55 > 0:09:58so they have lost a brain from the final,
0:09:58 > 0:10:01and the Eggheads are all still there, still sitting pretty,
0:10:01 > 0:10:04in a manner of speaking. And the next subject for you is Science.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07So, David's WImmin, who wants this?
0:10:07 > 0:10:09- It is either you or me. - It's going to be you or me.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12- Linda, yeah.- Linda or... - Yeah.- You want to go, Linda?
0:10:12 > 0:10:14- Yeah, OK.- Linda?
0:10:14 > 0:10:16OK. Our retired insurance underwriter against...
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- Who would you like? Not Kevin. - Oh, golly.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23- Who are we going with?- Science. - Lisa?
0:10:23 > 0:10:26- Science.- Lisa?- Yeah.- Lisa, please.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30- Yes, she has had her issues with Science recently.- Oh!
0:10:30 > 0:10:31I made that sound very serious!
0:10:33 > 0:10:34Full newsreader voice there.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Linda from David's WImmin versus Lisa from the Eggheads,
0:10:37 > 0:10:39please go to the Question Room now.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44All right, so Science, Linda. Would you like to go first or second?
0:10:44 > 0:10:45First, please.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52Here is your first question. So, the chemical element titanium
0:10:52 > 0:10:54is named after figures from which mythology?
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Titanium. Oh, gosh. Erm...
0:11:03 > 0:11:05I think it's probably...
0:11:06 > 0:11:09..Greek, but I really am guessing at this.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13I did various Greek mythology things at school,
0:11:13 > 0:11:17but it didn't involve chemical symbols.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19I am going to go with Greek mythology, please.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22OK, you're right. Well done. Greek mythology.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26Lisa, your question. What is the literal meaning of the phrase
0:11:26 > 0:11:28"in vitro", as in in vitro fertilisation,
0:11:28 > 0:11:31when translated from the Latin? What does it mean?
0:11:33 > 0:11:36It means in glass, I think.
0:11:36 > 0:11:37- As in, in a test-tube. - Something like that.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39In glass is right.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44OK. Back to you, Linda. What is Olympus Mons on Mars?
0:11:49 > 0:11:50Olympus Mons...
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Yes, two words.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Olympus, and then Mons, M-O-N-S.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58Well, Mons would suggest...
0:11:59 > 0:12:01..a mountain, but...
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Olympus Mons.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06What is Olympus Mons on Mars?
0:12:07 > 0:12:09On Mars, right. So...
0:12:11 > 0:12:13I think I'm going to go for a volcano.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15It is a bit hotter than here.
0:12:16 > 0:12:17It's a bit nearer the sun.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Yes, I am going to say volcano.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Always the danger of overthinking it, and you haven't.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24A volcano is right.
0:12:24 > 0:12:25Yes!
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Mons was the word, well done.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29So, Lisa, to catch up, your question.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33Approximately how long does it take an individual blood cell
0:12:33 > 0:12:35to make a circuit of a typical human body?
0:12:39 > 0:12:42I'll tell you right now, it probably takes longer in mine.
0:12:42 > 0:12:43Erm...
0:12:46 > 0:12:47I don't know.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50I've never really thought about how fast blood is going.
0:12:52 > 0:12:53It's got to get all around.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58Would the pulse have anything to do with that?
0:12:58 > 0:13:00It doesn't, really, does it?
0:13:00 > 0:13:03That is just measuring how fast your heart's...
0:13:03 > 0:13:05..kind of going. I don't know.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08I have nothing to base this on. That's really very annoying.
0:13:10 > 0:13:1360 hours would seem sort of long...
0:13:15 > 0:13:18..so let's discount that. Erm...
0:13:19 > 0:13:21What sounds sensible? Your blood goes all round your body once a
0:13:21 > 0:13:25minute, your blood goes all round your body once an hour.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28I don't know, but of the two, I like 60 minutes marginally better,
0:13:28 > 0:13:30so I will go with 60 minutes.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32Yeah, I don't know how one gets to this, really.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36It goes at about 3mph or 4mph, the blood, so it is 60 seconds.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40- That's interesting. - So here we are again, Linda,
0:13:40 > 0:13:44with your chance to knock out an Egghead on the third question.
0:13:44 > 0:13:48Which of these creatures are known for leaving droppings
0:13:48 > 0:13:50shaped like cubes?
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Shaped like cubes.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58Cubes.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01I haven't done much trekking, following spores.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06I don't think it's a Shetland pony,
0:14:06 > 0:14:09because I don't think they would be cube-shaped.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Perhaps they ARE cube-shaped.
0:14:18 > 0:14:19Just thinking of...
0:14:21 > 0:14:26..of a horse's droppings, which are like a collection of cubes, almost.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28Erm...
0:14:29 > 0:14:31No, I... Erm...
0:14:33 > 0:14:35I think I'll go for wombat, please.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37- Eggheads?- Yes, wombat.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39- Wombat is right.- Yay!
0:14:39 > 0:14:42OK, Linda. You've turned the tide a little bit here,
0:14:42 > 0:14:44so you have taken on one of the Eggheads and emerged triumphant.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47- You will be in the final round. Lisa's been knocked out.- Yes!
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Return to us, please. We're going to play round three.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54While we are on the topic of wombat poo,
0:14:54 > 0:14:57I have just been informed by our producer, Rob Dean,
0:14:57 > 0:15:01who specialises in this subject, square poo is very good
0:15:01 > 0:15:04for marking territory, because it doesn't roll away.
0:15:04 > 0:15:08- Yeah.- Oh! - That... That's a thought.- Yes.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10As it stands, David's WImmin have drawn level.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14They have lost a brain, the Eggheads are marking out their territory
0:15:14 > 0:15:16here, they've lost one, too. And the next subject for you
0:15:16 > 0:15:18in round three is Geography.
0:15:18 > 0:15:19Who would like this?
0:15:19 > 0:15:21- Was that me?- I think so, yes.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23- I'm afraid that's me. - Chrissie, the captain.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Which Egghead would you like to take on?
0:15:25 > 0:15:28It can be... So, alternates. Dave or Steve or Judith.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30- All big brains.- Judith, please.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Very good. Our multi-million pound...
0:15:33 > 0:15:35- Well...- No!
0:15:35 > 0:15:38- Only one!- Just the one million, OK.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Chrissie from David's WImmin, taking on Judith from the Eggheads,
0:15:41 > 0:15:43please go to the Question Room now.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47Chrissie, here we go, on Geography against Judith.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Would you like to go first or second?
0:15:49 > 0:15:50I'd like to go first, please.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56OK, your first question, Chrissie.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59What name is given to areas of the seas or oceans
0:15:59 > 0:16:02that do not fall under the jurisdiction of any country?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Mmm. I'll think about this, please. Erm...
0:16:11 > 0:16:15I don't think it's disputed strata.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Because there's nobody...
0:16:17 > 0:16:19..at odds with anybody else.
0:16:20 > 0:16:25And I don't really think it's international waters.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28I'm going to go for neutral zone, please.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Let me ask the Challengers. Is she right?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32- International waters. - International waters.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34International waters is the answer.
0:16:34 > 0:16:35Don't worry, Chrissie.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Here we go with Judith's first question.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42The region of the UK known as East Anglia is made up of Suffolk
0:16:42 > 0:16:47and Norfolk, as well as parts of Essex and which other county?
0:16:47 > 0:16:48Judith.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52Well, Hampshire's in the south,
0:16:52 > 0:16:56and Oxfordshire is sort of in the middle, centre, south.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58So it's Cambridgeshire.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00It is indeed Cambridgeshire. You're ahead.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Back to you, Chrissie.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05Which of these cities is located on the island of Java?
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Once again, I have no idea.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Oh, Java.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Don't think it's Manila.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21So it is either between Dhofar or Jakarta.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24I have probably got this wrong, but I will go for Dhofar.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28Java, I believe, is part of Indonesia, is that right, Eggheads?
0:17:28 > 0:17:30- Yes, it is, yes.- So it's Jakarta.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Worry not. Judith, your question.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35You can actually take the round with this.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Thailand shares land borders with how many countries?
0:17:41 > 0:17:44Well, it's got Burma going down one side.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47And it has got Cambodia.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52So I have counted more than one, so I'm going to say four.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Four is the right answer, Judith.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56Well done. Sorry, Chrissie.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59- OK.- I know we didn't see the best of you there.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00You've been beaten by our Egghead,
0:18:00 > 0:18:02but Challengers still really in this game.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05Come back to us, both of you. One more round to play before the final.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10David's WImmin have lost two brains from the final round,
0:18:10 > 0:18:13including the skipper. The Eggheads have lost one,
0:18:13 > 0:18:15and we have got one more round to play before the final.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17It's Sport.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Who is Sport here?
0:18:18 > 0:18:20- Has to be Sheila.- It's got to be me.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22- Because Sheila... - Is the only one left.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24And against which Egghead would you like to go?
0:18:24 > 0:18:27So you've got Steve or Dave left.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30I think you're better going for Steve. Dave is good at Sport.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33Yeah. We're going with Steve, please.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35Very good. Sheila from David's WImmin
0:18:35 > 0:18:37taking on Steve on Sport in the Question Room,
0:18:37 > 0:18:38please take your positions.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Sheila, would you like to go first or second?
0:18:42 > 0:18:45I will continue the trend and go first, please.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51OK, Sheila, here we go.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55Which football club won the Premier League title in May 2017?
0:18:55 > 0:18:56Sheila, was this...
0:19:00 > 0:19:03Football is not a sport that I follow.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08And I'm thinking it could be any one of those.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11But Chelsea doesn't seem to ring a bell.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15But it could be one of the other two.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16Manchester...
0:19:18 > 0:19:21No, I'm going to go back to Chelsea, believe it or not,
0:19:21 > 0:19:23having eliminated it for some reason.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27I can't remember it being Manchester City.
0:19:27 > 0:19:28I am going to go Chelsea.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31OK. Chelsea is the right answer.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35As it happens, I watched a lot of those games,
0:19:35 > 0:19:37so I am pleased you got it right.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39Well done. OK, Steve.
0:19:39 > 0:19:43Which of these was not an Olympic sport at the 2016 Games?
0:19:46 > 0:19:48I think that's baseball, Jeremy.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50Baseball is correct.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55Back to you, Sheila. Which golfer, born in Texas in 1939, is quoted as
0:19:55 > 0:20:00saying, "My swing is so bad, I look like a caveman killing his lunch?"
0:20:05 > 0:20:09Thinking of how old that makes...
0:20:09 > 0:20:12How, what... What day was he, what year was he born?
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Born in Texas in 1939.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17So that puts him well in his 70s now.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20I thought Lee Trevino was younger than that, so...
0:20:21 > 0:20:22I'm going to eliminate that.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27I also think Tom Watson may be younger than that.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31But Jack Nicklaus... I'm going to go Jack Nicklaus.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Jack Nicklaus, let's see. Challengers, is she right?
0:20:34 > 0:20:36I thought it might be Trevino, but...
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- Yeah, Lee Trevino... - Oh!- ..was born in Texas in 1939.
0:20:39 > 0:20:43- Can we do some ages here, Eggheads? - Sorry, guys.- Trevino, '39.
0:20:43 > 0:20:44Jack Nicklaus was 1940.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47'40, OK, so not that much later.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49And then Tom Watson, much later?
0:20:49 > 0:20:50Not much later, no.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Not much later, but later.
0:20:52 > 0:20:56Because he was 59 when he was competing in the Open.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58I'd say Tom Watson, 1940s.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00- OK.- Yeah. '40s.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Steve, who won the men's singles title
0:21:03 > 0:21:06at the 2017 Australian Open tennis tournament? Is it...
0:21:10 > 0:21:12Yeah. After a bit of a lay-off through injury,
0:21:12 > 0:21:16it's my absolute all-time hero, Roger Federer.
0:21:16 > 0:21:17I didn't know he was your all-time hero.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19I love the man. Think he's brilliant.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21- Really?- Yeah, yeah. - Roger Federer is right.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Well done, Steve.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25OK, Sheila, you need this to stay in.
0:21:25 > 0:21:30In 2014, which boxer from Sheffield defeated the American Shawn Porter
0:21:30 > 0:21:34in California to take the IBF welterweight world title?
0:21:39 > 0:21:41As I've lived for most of my life in Sheffield,
0:21:41 > 0:21:45anybody that knows me will think, "Why don't you know that?"
0:21:45 > 0:21:48I don't know the name Matthew Hatton.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Or Ricky Burns.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55I think it is Kell Brook.
0:21:55 > 0:21:56So that is the one I am going for, Kell Brook.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00Kell Brook. Well, that's handy, so you are based in Sheffield.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Let's check with Dave, he loves his boxing.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04- Yes, Kell Brook is right. - Kell Brook is the right answer.
0:22:04 > 0:22:05- Well done.- Well done.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08You can return home with your head held high.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10OK, Steve, you can take the round with this.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14Eau Rouge is a notorious corner on which Formula 1 racetrack?
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Eau Rouge, and Eau is E-A-U.
0:22:17 > 0:22:18Is it...
0:22:23 > 0:22:26Well, I don't know straight off the bat, but it's Francophone sounding,
0:22:26 > 0:22:28so I'm going to rule out Imola.
0:22:28 > 0:22:29After that, it's a straight...
0:22:30 > 0:22:31Could be either.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36Magny-Cours is French, Spa is Belgian.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42It's a 50-50, and I am notoriously bad for 50-50s,
0:22:42 > 0:22:44but I will try Spa Francorchamps.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Spa Francorchamps is the right answer, Steve.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49You're in the final round. Sorry, Sheila,
0:22:49 > 0:22:51that one wrong answer has knocked you out.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54You are not in the final. If you return to us, both of you,
0:22:54 > 0:22:56we will play the final for £1,000.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00So, this is what we have been playing towards,
0:23:00 > 0:23:03it is time for the final round. As always, it's General Knowledge.
0:23:03 > 0:23:04But I'm afraid those of you lost
0:23:04 > 0:23:07your head-to-heads won't be allowed to take part.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11So that's Chrissie, Sheila and Diane from David's WImmin,
0:23:11 > 0:23:13and also Lisa from the Eggheads,
0:23:13 > 0:23:15would you please now leave the studio?
0:23:17 > 0:23:19OK, here we go. David and Linda, you are playing to win
0:23:19 > 0:23:21David's WImmin £1,000.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23Dave, Steve, Kevin and Judith,
0:23:23 > 0:23:25you are playing for something that money can't buy -
0:23:25 > 0:23:27the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32This time they are all General Knowledge. You may confer.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35So, David's WImmin, the question is,
0:23:35 > 0:23:39are your two brains able to beat these four over here?
0:23:39 > 0:23:41- Yes, of course.- Good! That's what we need to hear.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43- Would you like to go first or second?- We'd like to go first.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52OK. David and Linda, here we go with your first question.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56The alternative therapy, shiatsu, originated in which country?
0:24:01 > 0:24:05I've come across it, but it's not something I've indulged in,
0:24:05 > 0:24:08but it sounds something like Japanese to me.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10Yes. The words sound Japanese, don't they?
0:24:10 > 0:24:12- It sounds like a Japanese inflection.- Yeah.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14We're not really sure,
0:24:14 > 0:24:16but I think we're going to go for Japan.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Japan is right. Well done.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22Over to you, Eggheads. Which Indian location gave its name to a type of
0:24:22 > 0:24:25bullet devised there by a British Army officer
0:24:25 > 0:24:27in the late 19th century?
0:24:32 > 0:24:34- Dum Dum.- Yeah, because it's Mumbai Airport, isn't it?
0:24:34 > 0:24:37- Or was it Calcutta Airport? - Calcutta, yeah.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39Calcutta Airport. So it's Dum Dum, yeah?
0:24:39 > 0:24:42- We all happy?- Yeah.- Dum Dum, please.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Yes, Dave, Dum Dum is right.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46OK. Challengers,
0:24:46 > 0:24:50the anemone is the name for a number of species of flowering plants
0:24:50 > 0:24:52belonging to which family?
0:24:57 > 0:25:00- Gosh!- Anemone. I'm trying to picture it, to start with.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Well, it has the purply pink petals, doesn't it?
0:25:03 > 0:25:04It is spring flowering.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10- I think they're rhizomes. - Does that imply it's an iris, then?
0:25:10 > 0:25:12It could be, couldn't it?
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Buttercups are usually later than that.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18I don't know, I don't know, I'm not a gardener.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21And they sort of... They are rooted and they travel, don't they?
0:25:21 > 0:25:22- Yeah.- Um...
0:25:22 > 0:25:24Perhaps it is an iris, you know, if it...
0:25:24 > 0:25:25If it's a rhizome...
0:25:25 > 0:25:28- Yeah. I don't know.- I am not a gardener in the slightest,
0:25:28 > 0:25:30so I'm not...
0:25:31 > 0:25:33I know Chrissie would have known this straightaway.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36Yeah. Are we going for that one?
0:25:36 > 0:25:39- Yeah.- We're not sure, and I'm certainly not a gardener, really,
0:25:39 > 0:25:41but we are going to go for iris.
0:25:41 > 0:25:42Iris is your answer.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46Let me ask you, Chrissie, do you know this one?
0:25:46 > 0:25:49I'm afraid not. I would probably have gone for lily.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Lily... Well, Judith will know.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Well, I think it's buttercup,
0:25:53 > 0:25:56because a lily is a bulb and an iris is a rhizome.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58And a buttercup is a plant with roots.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01- It is buttercup.- Ah!
0:26:01 > 0:26:02Buttercup is the answer.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05So the Eggheads have a chance to take the lead now.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09In 2015, Mauricio Macri triumphed in which country's
0:26:09 > 0:26:11presidential elections?
0:26:14 > 0:26:16- Argentina.- Argentina.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18- Yeah, yeah.- Argentina.
0:26:18 > 0:26:19Yeah? All happy with Argentina?
0:26:19 > 0:26:23The answer is Argentina, please, Jeremy.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Argentina is correct.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26They knew that one.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30That means you must get this one right, Challengers,
0:26:30 > 0:26:31or the contest is over.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33Playing for £1,000, here is your question.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37The 1787 composition known as A Musical Joke,
0:26:37 > 0:26:42used for many years by the BBC as the theme tune
0:26:42 > 0:26:47for the Horse Of The Year Show, was composed by whom?
0:26:49 > 0:26:51It's Mozart, isn't it?
0:26:52 > 0:26:55Well, he was the musical joke chap, wasn't he, so, yes.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57We think that's Mozart.
0:26:57 > 0:26:58OK, you went straight there.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Let's see, Eggheads, are they right?
0:27:00 > 0:27:02- Yes.- Mozart is the right answer, well done.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05So you've got two out of three. Is it enough to go to Sudden Death?
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Eggheads, if you get this right,
0:27:07 > 0:27:10you will have taken the round and the contest.

0:27:21 > 0:27:23Yes. Is that right?
0:27:23 > 0:27:26I didn't know that. So, the Channel Islands, yes?
0:27:26 > 0:27:30Yes, Jersey and Guernsey, but certainly the Channel Islands.
0:27:30 > 0:27:35All right. Kevin has informed me it's the Channel Islands.

0:28:13 > 0:28:14Well done, Eggheads.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17Is this the beginning of a streak of success for you?

0:28:22 > 0:28:24£2,000 will be here for them to win.
