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?

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:25 > 0:00:29pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:29 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads, and you are on form at the moment, aren't you?

0:00:32 > 0:00:34- Very much so.- Yeah.- You really are.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36Challenging the might of our quiz Goliaths today

0:00:36 > 0:00:39are the Waterbed Warriors from South Wales.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42Now, everyone in his team shares a mutual appreciation

0:00:42 > 0:00:46for the waterbed, either selling them or sleeping on them.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48They've even taken the name "warriors" from the fact

0:00:48 > 0:00:50that they've been defending waterbeds for years

0:00:50 > 0:00:52and trying to get everyone to believe them

0:00:52 > 0:00:55when they say that they are better than normal beds. Let's meet them.

0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hello, I'm Terry and I'm a waterbed sales manager.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Hi, I'm Jayne and I'm a civil servant.

0:01:01 > 0:01:05Hello, I'm David and I'm a waterbed company director.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08Hello, I'm Natalie and I'm a civil servant.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10Hi, I'm Bart and I'm a sales manager.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12- So, Terry and team, hello.- Hello.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15Lovely to see you, and, Terry, you are a waterbed sales manager?

0:01:15 > 0:01:16- Correct, yes.- So...

0:01:16 > 0:01:19I don't know, how many Eggheads have slept on a waterbed? Have you...?

0:01:19 > 0:01:21- No?- I've slept on one. - Barry, of course!

0:01:21 > 0:01:24BARRY LAUGHS Known as "He's Been To Every Answer".

0:01:24 > 0:01:26So... I must admit, I haven't.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29And I'm assuming it's a great big giant bag of water.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32- Actually everyone thinks that. It really isn't.- Right.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35The actual technology with a waterbed is inside the bag,

0:01:35 > 0:01:36and it's the number of fibre layers

0:01:36 > 0:01:38and where they are and how they're tethered.

0:01:38 > 0:01:40And of course, the heat in there

0:01:40 > 0:01:42is controlled from each side of the bed.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45- You can heat the water up? - You have different temperatures on each side if you want,

0:01:45 > 0:01:47and different firmnesses on each side if you want.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50- And is it made of leather, or plastic...?- It's vinyl.

0:01:50 > 0:01:51- Vinyl?- Vinyl.- Right.

0:01:51 > 0:01:53So do you use them at home yourself, Terry?

0:01:53 > 0:01:56- Absolutely, we've got three in the house.- And are they very large?

0:01:56 > 0:01:58- Can they be large? - They can be whatever size you want,

0:01:58 > 0:02:00but the majority of waterbeds

0:02:00 > 0:02:02are five foot by six foot six, or six foot by six foot six.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04I might need a large one.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06Is it circular or is it square?

0:02:06 > 0:02:09- It's an oblong, but it can be seven feet long for you.- OK.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11And they're made to order on whatever size.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13What happens if the pillow falls off the end?

0:02:13 > 0:02:16- We do a water pillow, as well. Water pillows don't move.- Really?

0:02:16 > 0:02:18So you would have... Would that be Velcro, or...?

0:02:18 > 0:02:21No, water pillows are so heavy that they don't move,

0:02:21 > 0:02:24so therefore you mustn't do pillow fights with them,

0:02:24 > 0:02:25you'll knock each other's heads off.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28And the upside, for those of us who haven't tried them,

0:02:28 > 0:02:29is what? Better back and better posture?

0:02:29 > 0:02:31Yeah, anyone with bad backs, they're good for.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34Allergies, because of course you can't get dust mites

0:02:34 > 0:02:35in an ordinary bed.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38People are supposed to throw their mattresses away every six years. They don't.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41So they're breathing the skin that they've shed every night.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43- You don't do that in a waterbed. - Right, OK.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45Well, look, this is, it's more than a pillow fight

0:02:45 > 0:02:48we've got today with these Eggheads, but, Challengers, good luck.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs

0:02:51 > 0:02:52for our challenging team.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54If they fail to defeat the Eggheads though,

0:02:54 > 0:02:56the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00Now, Waterbed Warriors, the Eggheads have won the last six games,

0:03:00 > 0:03:02so they are steaming along here

0:03:02 > 0:03:04and you need to give them a serious puncture.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07£7,000 if you can let the water out. OK?

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Are you ready? LAUGHTER

0:03:10 > 0:03:11We certainly are, thank you.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Geography.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15So one of you, please,

0:03:15 > 0:03:18against either Lisa, Steve, Barry, Pat or Chris.

0:03:18 > 0:03:22We've worked it out and it's David who's taking Geography and...

0:03:22 > 0:03:24- Who are you going to...? - Not Barry. Erm...

0:03:24 > 0:03:25Not Barry.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27Need someone.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29- Oh, gosh.- Steve or Chris.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32- Steve, Lisa or Chris.- Chris, then.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34It's Chris, please.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37Right, Dave from the Waterbed Warriors,

0:03:37 > 0:03:39versus Chris from the Eggheads.

0:03:39 > 0:03:40To ensure there's no conferring,

0:03:40 > 0:03:43would you please take your positions in our famous Question Room?

0:03:44 > 0:03:47So here we are on Geography, against the great Chris,

0:03:47 > 0:03:50and I think you might have sold him a waterbed. Don't you think, Chris?

0:03:50 > 0:03:53- It's something to think about, Jeremy, yeah.- Yeah. - I'll be working on it.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55OK, would you like to go first or second, David?

0:03:55 > 0:03:56I'll go first, please.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Here is your question.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03Which of these UK cities has the largest population?

0:04:07 > 0:04:10Ely's a very small country town, really, sort of city. Erm...

0:04:12 > 0:04:13It's got to be Liverpool.

0:04:13 > 0:04:14It is Liverpool, well done.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Chris,

0:04:16 > 0:04:21the Massif Central is an upland area of which country?

0:04:23 > 0:04:25It's in the middle of France, Jeremy.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27France is right, Chris. Well done.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29OK. Back to you, David.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33After Sicily, what is the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea?

0:04:36 > 0:04:38Malta's fairly small.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41I... Sardinia's below...

0:04:41 > 0:04:42I'm going for Cyprus.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Let's see if the Eggheads know. Is that right?

0:04:44 > 0:04:46- I'd have gone for Sardinia. - I think it's Sardinia.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Yeah, Sardinia is the right answer.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50Chris, question in hand.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52Can you take the lead?

0:04:52 > 0:04:55Which city is often referred to as "the frying pan of Europe",

0:04:55 > 0:04:57due to the high temperatures recorded there?

0:05:01 > 0:05:03Well, Nice is on the Mediterranean,

0:05:03 > 0:05:05which would keep temperatures down a wee bit.

0:05:05 > 0:05:09Milan's on the Lombardy Plain, which can get quite hot.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13And because it's far south, I'll go with Seville.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16Yes, Seville is correct. So he's taken the lead, David.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18You need to get this one right.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21The Republic of Karelia is a part of Russia that borders

0:05:21 > 0:05:24which other independent country?

0:05:24 > 0:05:25So, Karelia.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28K-A-R-E-L-I-A.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34I'm pretty sure it's not the Ukraine or Finland,

0:05:34 > 0:05:36- so I'm going for Kazakhstan. - Well, let's check with Chris,

0:05:36 > 0:05:38cos this will be a bit of a World War II history here,

0:05:38 > 0:05:40- Chris, which you love.- Well, yeah.

0:05:40 > 0:05:44The Karelia Suite by Sibelius, a great Finnish piece of music,

0:05:44 > 0:05:46- so it's Finland.- And was that...?

0:05:46 > 0:05:49- Cos there was trouble, argy-bargy, wasn't there?- Oh, yeah.

0:05:49 > 0:05:51Well, Finland became independent

0:05:51 > 0:05:53and the Russians really wanted Finland back.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55And there was the Winter War in 1939.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Finland is the answer there.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Sorry, David, knocked out by Chris...

0:05:59 > 0:06:02- Right.- ..who may even get even better if he gets a waterbed.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05As a result, you will not be able to help your team in the final round,

0:06:05 > 0:06:07so, David and Chris, come back to us, please, and we'll play Round Two.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12So, as it stands, the Waterbed Warriors have lost one brain

0:06:12 > 0:06:15from the final round. The Eggheads have not lost any so far.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17And it's Arts & Books now, Terry and team.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Oh, we know who this is now.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21- I'll take that.- OK. - I'll take that for the team?

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Who's taking History, then? Cos I would've taken Art & Books.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27- OK, you're taking that then, are you?- OK.- So it's Jayne, please.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29OK, Jayne.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32Civil servant, against anyone but Chris.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Who shall I go for? Er, Lisa?

0:06:34 > 0:06:38- I thought you were going to take History.- OK.- Lisa.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40OK, Jayne from the Waterbed Warriors

0:06:40 > 0:06:42taking on Lisa from the Eggheads.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45Let's see who makes a splash here. Please take your positions.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49OK, Arts & Books. Good luck, Jayne.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51Let's see if we can get the Challengers back into this

0:06:51 > 0:06:53and would you like to go first or second?

0:06:53 > 0:06:55Erm, I'd like to go first, please.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01Jayne, your first question is

0:07:01 > 0:07:04what did Rip Van Winkle do for 20 years in the short

0:07:04 > 0:07:07story of the same name by Washington Irving?

0:07:10 > 0:07:12- I... - JAYNE SIGHS

0:07:14 > 0:07:15I think he slept.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17So sleep. I'll go for sleep.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19Sleep is correct.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21Lisa,

0:07:21 > 0:07:23Which of these writers was born first?

0:07:27 > 0:07:28Hm.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30Not sure on Defoe's dates.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33Erm, Roald Dahl was born in 1916...

0:07:33 > 0:07:35I think it might be Daniel Defoe.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37On that basis, we'll go for Daniel Defoe.

0:07:38 > 0:07:42Daniel Defoe is correct, well done.

0:07:42 > 0:07:43Jayne, your question.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46What is the name of the central character in John Bunyan's

0:07:46 > 0:07:47The Pilgrim's Progress?

0:07:51 > 0:07:53JAYNE SIGHS

0:07:53 > 0:07:55It's not a book I've read, but...

0:07:56 > 0:07:58I don't think it's Christian.

0:07:58 > 0:07:59Erm...

0:08:01 > 0:08:06I don't think it's Joshua, so I'm going to opt for Virgil.

0:08:06 > 0:08:11It's actually a story about, I suppose, Christian life or whatever.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14- Christian is the answer.- Oh...- OK.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17So, Lisa, your chance to take the lead.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20The British artist Peter Blake is usually credited with

0:08:20 > 0:08:23designing the cover for which of these studio albums?

0:08:23 > 0:08:24Lisa...

0:08:28 > 0:08:32I think he did Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is correct,

0:08:35 > 0:08:37which recently had a 50th.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40OK, so you need this one, Jayne.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43The artist Sir Peter Lely, best known for his paintings

0:08:43 > 0:08:47of the English aristocracy, was born in which year?

0:08:47 > 0:08:50So he is Sir Peter Lely. L-E-L-Y.

0:08:55 > 0:08:59I don't think it's 1618. That just seems too early.

0:08:59 > 0:09:00Erm...

0:09:01 > 0:09:04I'm going to plump for 1818.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06So more recent. Let's...

0:09:06 > 0:09:08It's not somebody I've heard of. Eggheads, can you help with this?

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Born in 1618.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13I believe he famously painted Cromwell "warts and all".

0:09:13 > 0:09:17Cromwell "warts and all". So he goes right back to the 1600s.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19- Oh...- The answer is 1618, Jayne.

0:09:19 > 0:09:23Sir Peter Lely has knocked you out, all those centuries back,

0:09:23 > 0:09:24and Lisa's in the final round.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27Come back to us and we're going to play Round Three.

0:09:28 > 0:09:32As it stands, the Waterbed Warriors have...sprung a leak here.

0:09:32 > 0:09:36The Eggheads have so far not lost any brains at all.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38The next subject for you is Music.

0:09:38 > 0:09:39I'll take this.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42- OK, Nat's going to take that one. - I don't want to be left on my own.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44- OK, Natalie...- You've got to...

0:09:44 > 0:09:46I'll take whatever comes last, no problem.

0:09:46 > 0:09:47Against which Egghead?

0:09:47 > 0:09:49You've got the three in the middle here.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53- What do you think? What about that...?- What do you think, Terry? - No, I'm drawn to that shirt.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55It's got to be... It's got to be you, Barry.

0:09:55 > 0:09:58So it is Natalie from the Waterbed Warriors versus Barry

0:09:58 > 0:10:00with the alluring shirt from the Eggheads,

0:10:00 > 0:10:02and please take your positions.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06Barry, any good music you've discovered recently?

0:10:06 > 0:10:08Ariana Grande.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11- Oh, yes, she was wonderful in that Manchester concert. - I never listened to her

0:10:11 > 0:10:14before the Manchester, but afterwards I fell in love with her.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17- Yeah, no...- And her music, as well. - She is quite something.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19How about you, Natalie? What are you listening to?

0:10:19 > 0:10:21Usually anything David makes.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24Any music he makes on his guitar is fine by me.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27- This is your partner, David... - Husband, Jeremy. Husband.- Husband.

0:10:27 > 0:10:30- Husband.- So you listen, you sit around, listening to David's music.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32- That is dedication.- Yeah. Yeah.- Brilliant.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34OK. Well, there we go.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36I don't know if we can guarantee you a question on David's music

0:10:36 > 0:10:39- in this round, but, Natalie, good luck.- Thank you.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42- Would you like to go first or second?- I'll go first, please.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47So, here we go. Your first question.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51What is the usual translation of the title of Richard Strauss's opera

0:10:51 > 0:10:53Der Rosenkavalier?

0:10:53 > 0:10:55Is it...?

0:11:00 > 0:11:03I'm trying to think of a literal description.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06I don't know for sure.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09From the sound of it, I would say...

0:11:09 > 0:11:11The Knight of the Rose.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14The Knight of the Rose is quite correct. Well done.

0:11:14 > 0:11:15Barry,

0:11:15 > 0:11:19which of these UK number one singles was released first?

0:11:26 > 0:11:27Oh, goodness me.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29BARRY LAUGHS

0:11:29 > 0:11:31I'm all at sea on this one. Er...

0:11:33 > 0:11:36I think Feargal Sharkey is probably the oldest of those acts

0:11:36 > 0:11:40to get a number one, so I shall go for A Good Heart.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43And you're right, A Good Heart by Feargal Sharkey.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45So, Natalie, your question.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49Witness is the title of a 2017 album by which singer?

0:11:49 > 0:11:51Witness. Is it...?

0:11:54 > 0:11:562017...

0:11:59 > 0:12:01I'll go for Katy Perry.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03Yes, it is Katy Perry.

0:12:03 > 0:12:04Good answer.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08Barry, to catch up.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Salvador Sobral won the 2017 Eurovision Song Contest

0:12:11 > 0:12:13representing which country?

0:12:13 > 0:12:15Salvador Sobral.

0:12:18 > 0:12:22Well, I make a point of always missing the Eurovision Song Contest

0:12:22 > 0:12:25because I really believe it's unmitigated tripe

0:12:25 > 0:12:29from beginning to end, but I believe the winner came from Portugal.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31Portugal is correct. Well done.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Yeah, and it was a rather plaintive, lovely song he sang, actually,

0:12:34 > 0:12:36- written by, I think, his sister maybe.- Yes.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40It was a moment where...it wasn't so crazy.

0:12:40 > 0:12:45OK, so, here we are and it's your third question now, Natalie.

0:12:45 > 0:12:49Can be crucial. Which Elvis Presley song was adapted

0:12:49 > 0:12:53from an American Civil War ballad called Aura Lea?

0:12:58 > 0:13:02And it's two words, A-U-R-A and then L-E-A. Aura Lea.

0:13:02 > 0:13:06I'm not altogether sure and I'm not sure whether I'm really looking at

0:13:06 > 0:13:10the translation or more the time period of the original.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14I will go for Love Me Tender.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18- Let's see. I think Terry knows this. Terry?- I didn't, actually, Jeremy.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21I would have gone Crying In The Chapel for some reason.

0:13:21 > 0:13:22But I don't know why.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24Love Me Tender is the right answer.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26- Well done.- It's a miracle!

0:13:26 > 0:13:27Barry.

0:13:27 > 0:13:32Which composer's only completed opera was entitled Genoveva?

0:13:37 > 0:13:39And this to stay in, Barry.

0:13:39 > 0:13:43Well, Beethoven's only opera was Fidelio.

0:13:43 > 0:13:47Berlioz wrote The Trojans and he may have written other ones.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50But I think Genoveva was Robert Schumann.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Genoveva was indeed Robert Schumann. Well done, Barry.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Nice play. So, three questions each.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57The scores are level.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59- That's a shame, Natalie, isn't it?- Indeed.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01If he'd just slipped up there, it would have got you

0:14:01 > 0:14:02into the final round.

0:14:02 > 0:14:05OK, Sudden Death now, Natalie. It gets a bit harder.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07- I don't give you alternative answers.- OK.

0:14:07 > 0:14:08In classical music,

0:14:08 > 0:14:12Lang Lang is a world-famous soloist on which musical instrument?

0:14:12 > 0:14:16So it's two words, both beginning with L, both the same, Lang Lang.

0:14:16 > 0:14:17Obviously, I don't know.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21Erm... I'd say violin.

0:14:21 > 0:14:23- Piano.- OK.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25Barry can take the round with this.

0:14:25 > 0:14:30The Joan Baez song Diamonds And Rust concerns her former relationship

0:14:30 > 0:14:32with which famous singer?

0:14:32 > 0:14:36Well, I listened to a lot of Joan Baez in my protest days.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39And I do know she had a very early relationship with Bob Dylan,

0:14:39 > 0:14:41so that will be my answer.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43Bob Dylan is the right answer, Barry. You're in the final round.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45Sorry, Natalie. Knocked out.

0:14:45 > 0:14:47Looking difficult for our Challengers,

0:14:47 > 0:14:48but not by any means impossible.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51Return to us, please, and we'll see what The Waterbeds can do.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56So, as it stands, The Waterbed Warriors have lost three brains

0:14:56 > 0:14:58from the final round.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00As yet, the Eggheads have not sprung a leak

0:15:00 > 0:15:02and the next subject is Science.

0:15:04 > 0:15:05That will be Bart's.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08- OK, Bart.- And against...

0:15:08 > 0:15:09So, it's Steve or Pat.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11OK. Pat, please.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14Right, Bart from The Waterbed Warriors takes on

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Pat from the Eggheads.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19Last round before the final. Take your positions, please.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Bart, I think this is a good round for you, isn't it?

0:15:23 > 0:15:28- I hope so.- Because you love electronic music.- Yes.

0:15:28 > 0:15:34And video games and I did geology and archaeology at university,

0:15:34 > 0:15:37so I've got a kind of fair grounding in science, I hope.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39So, Bart, would you like to go first or second against Pat?

0:15:39 > 0:15:41Pain up front, I'll go first please.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46Here we go with your first question.

0:15:46 > 0:15:50What name is given to the world's largest bivalve mollusc?

0:15:55 > 0:15:56HE CHUCKLES

0:15:56 > 0:15:58That's got to be giant clam.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Yes, it is a giant clam.

0:16:01 > 0:16:06Pat, Lithobius forficatus, the common centipede,

0:16:06 > 0:16:09typically has how many pairs of legs when fully grown?

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Er... Even for a centipede, I think

0:16:15 > 0:16:181,500 pairs of legs would be a logistical problem.

0:16:18 > 0:16:22I think millipedes have more legs than centipedes.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25I'm not sure centipedes tend to have actually...

0:16:25 > 0:16:29They don't generally deliver on 100 feet, which would be 50 pairs.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31The common centipede...

0:16:31 > 0:16:34So, assuming that's the sort of chap I've seen...

0:16:36 > 0:16:38..wriggling around underneath a stone...

0:16:38 > 0:16:40150's a lot of pairs, isn't it?

0:16:42 > 0:16:43I'll have to go for 15.

0:16:43 > 0:16:4615 is the right answer.

0:16:46 > 0:16:47Bart,

0:16:47 > 0:16:51which gas makes up about 90% of the atmosphere of Jupiter?

0:16:51 > 0:16:52Ooh...

0:16:56 > 0:16:58Hm...

0:16:58 > 0:17:00I'm going to say it's not carbon dioxide.

0:17:04 > 0:17:08And Jupiter, if I'm right...

0:17:08 > 0:17:10I'm going to say nitrogen.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12- Ooh!- I can hear some gasps on this side.

0:17:12 > 0:17:15- Hydrogen.- Hydrogen is the answer.

0:17:15 > 0:17:16Yeah.

0:17:16 > 0:17:17Pat, your question.

0:17:17 > 0:17:23What type of diet did the Coelophysis genus of dinosaurs have?

0:17:27 > 0:17:29I'll have to ask for a spelling, please.

0:17:29 > 0:17:33Yes, Coelophysis is C-O-E-L-O-P-H-Y-S-I-S.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38I think, for a dinosaur, or certainly a dinosaur of any size,

0:17:38 > 0:17:44a frugivorous diet, eating fruit, might be a challenge.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48Erm... Fruit tends to be transient and low-ish volume

0:17:48 > 0:17:51so it would take a lot of fruit to keep a big dinosaur going.

0:17:53 > 0:17:54No, this is difficult.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57This is boiling down to a fairly blind guess, really.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01One temptation is to go for frugivorous just

0:18:01 > 0:18:03because of the novelty,

0:18:03 > 0:18:05because you hear about lots of carnivorous

0:18:05 > 0:18:07and herbivorous dinosaurs.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10Perhaps there was a specialist who did subsist on fruit.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13I don't think it could have been that big, though.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15I've no real reason to pick between any of them,

0:18:15 > 0:18:17so I'll go for frugivorous

0:18:17 > 0:18:20on the assumption that there were fruiting trees at that time.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23I love it. Just for the sheer novelty of it.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26- Carnivorous is the answer, Pat.- Oh.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28So, level, third question

0:18:28 > 0:18:30to you, Bart. Bit of a let off there.

0:18:30 > 0:18:31Press the advantage.

0:18:31 > 0:18:35Which device in a smartphone or a tablet computer automatically

0:18:35 > 0:18:40detects changes in orientation so that when the unit is turned

0:18:40 > 0:18:43the appropriate view can be displayed on the screen?

0:18:48 > 0:18:50It's not an oscillator.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52It's not an antenna... It's an accelerometer.

0:18:54 > 0:18:55Accelerometer is quite right.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58- Doesn't sound like it, but it is. - Marvellous!

0:18:58 > 0:18:59OK, you're ahead now.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01Pat needs this to stay in.

0:19:01 > 0:19:03Announced by astronomers in 2012

0:19:03 > 0:19:07as the largest galaxy cluster ever seen in the distant universe,

0:19:07 > 0:19:13it was given the name El Gordo which translates into English as what?

0:19:18 > 0:19:22Well, I think around Christmas time in Spain, they have a special...

0:19:24 > 0:19:27..lottery that they call El Gordo.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29And it's the fat one.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31The fat one is correct.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35So, level, after three.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37And we go to Sudden Death.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39And you start, Bart, with this question.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42Native to Siberia, Alaska and the Rocky Mountains,

0:19:42 > 0:19:46the Melissa Arctic is what type of insect?

0:19:46 > 0:19:49Something in my head says butterfly, but I've got no idea why.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51I'm going to say butterfly.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Butterfly is correct.

0:19:53 > 0:19:54Playing well.

0:19:56 > 0:19:57To stay in, Pat,

0:19:57 > 0:20:01in the SI system of units, what is the name of the unit of equivalent

0:20:01 > 0:20:06dose of ionising radiation named after a Swedish physicist?

0:20:06 > 0:20:09Well, in radiation, we've got the Becquerel. He's a French chap.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11We've got Gray. I think he was British.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14We've got Sievert.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19And we've got the rad, so they've a...

0:20:19 > 0:20:20They've an abundance of different units.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22I think it's the Sievert.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24Sievert is right.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26Back to you, Bart.

0:20:26 > 0:20:29The powerful ALMA telescope is located at an altitude

0:20:29 > 0:20:33of 5,000 metres in which South American country?

0:20:33 > 0:20:375,000 metres, so it's got to be in the Andes.

0:20:39 > 0:20:40Which gives us...

0:20:41 > 0:20:42..Chile or Peru?

0:20:45 > 0:20:49I've got a friend from Chile, so I'm going to say Chile just to say that.

0:20:49 > 0:20:50JEREMY LAUGHS Chile's correct.

0:20:52 > 0:20:53Well done.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55Pat...to stay in,

0:20:55 > 0:20:58the Swedish botanist and physician Carolus Linnaeus,

0:20:58 > 0:21:03who formalised the modern system of binomial nomenclature,

0:21:03 > 0:21:06lived during which century?

0:21:06 > 0:21:09He's either 1600s or 1700s.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14I think I'll go for 1700s,

0:21:14 > 0:21:16which is the 18th century.

0:21:16 > 0:21:1918th is quite right. 1707-1778.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21So, Bart, you've got to battle on here.

0:21:21 > 0:21:23Which bird of prey, found in the British Isles,

0:21:23 > 0:21:28has the scientific name Pandion haliaetus?

0:21:28 > 0:21:30I've got a friend who is going to absolutely nail me if I get

0:21:30 > 0:21:33this wrong because he's obsessive with bird watching.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35Erm...

0:21:35 > 0:21:37I've got to just hazard a guess. Osprey?

0:21:37 > 0:21:39Osprey is the right answer.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43Great quizzing here, Bart.

0:21:43 > 0:21:44OK, back to you, Pat.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46Fantastic round, this.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49For what does the letter I stand in Ito or ITO,

0:21:49 > 0:21:53the name of the chemical compound commonly used in touch screens,

0:21:53 > 0:21:56flat screens and solar panels?

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Chemical compound?

0:21:59 > 0:22:03Well, it could either be a chemical elements like Indium...

0:22:03 > 0:22:05..or it could be something like inorganic.

0:22:05 > 0:22:09We've got OLEDs, which are organic light-emitting diodes.

0:22:09 > 0:22:11Could you have inorganic...

0:22:11 > 0:22:12..something something?

0:22:14 > 0:22:16I'm afraid I think I'm running out of inspiration here.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19I think I'm going to have to go with the element indium.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21Indium is the right answer.

0:22:21 > 0:22:25And ITO is indium tin oxide and it's used because it conducts

0:22:25 > 0:22:29electricity and bonds to glass easily and is transparent.

0:22:29 > 0:22:31OK, Sudden Death. You're playing brilliantly, Bart.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33Here's your question.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37In 1824, Jons Jacob Berzelius, a Swedish chemist,

0:22:37 > 0:22:40was the first to isolate and describe

0:22:40 > 0:22:44which non-metallic chemical element in the carbon family?

0:22:44 > 0:22:48History of chemistry is something that never really kind of...

0:22:48 > 0:22:51I just didn't do enough reading about that.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Obviously, there's compounds of carbon,

0:22:53 > 0:22:56but I can't think of any element that relates to carbon.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59Obviously, my knowledge isn't enough. Erm...

0:23:01 > 0:23:03Carbon-14?

0:23:03 > 0:23:05No. Pat, do you know the answer?

0:23:05 > 0:23:08No, I'd be guessing selenium or something. I'd be guessing.

0:23:08 > 0:23:09The answer is silicon.

0:23:09 > 0:23:13And actually, silicon makes up 27.7% of the Earth's crust

0:23:13 > 0:23:18and is the second most abundant element after oxygen.

0:23:18 > 0:23:19Pat, your question for the round.

0:23:19 > 0:23:23In physics, which law states that the volume of a fixed mass

0:23:23 > 0:23:27of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature

0:23:27 > 0:23:31provided the pressure remains constant?

0:23:32 > 0:23:34I think that's Charles' law.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36- Let's check with the Eggheads. Eggs?- Yes.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39- Yep.- Yes, it is Charles' law. Well done. Oh, Bart!

0:23:39 > 0:23:40You played so well.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42- Really.- Thanks.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45That was just one of the best Science rounds

0:23:45 > 0:23:48I've ever seen on Eggheads. Really, really, really well done.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50Sorry, Pat is a fearsome player as well.

0:23:50 > 0:23:54So, come back to us and we'll see what the final holds.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57So, this is what we have been playing towards.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59It is time for our final round, which, as always,

0:23:59 > 0:24:01is General Knowledge.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:24:03 > 0:24:06won't be allowed to take part in this round.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08So, all from the Challengers' side,

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Jayne, David, Natalie and the brilliant Bart

0:24:10 > 0:24:14from The Waterbed Warriors, would you please now leave the studio?

0:24:15 > 0:24:20So, Terry, you're playing to win The Waterbed Warriors £7,000.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22Lisa, Steve, Barry, Pat and Chris,

0:24:22 > 0:24:25you are playing for the Eggheads' reputation.

0:24:25 > 0:24:27As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29They're all General Knowledge, Terry.

0:24:29 > 0:24:32Normally I say you can confer, but that's going to be tricky.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35But the real question here is can you, with your one brain,

0:24:35 > 0:24:38defeat these five over here on the Eggheads' side?

0:24:38 > 0:24:40And, Terry, would you like to go first or second?

0:24:40 > 0:24:41I'll go first, please.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47All right, so, Terry, seller of waterbeds,

0:24:47 > 0:24:49here is your first question.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52In which city was the radio broadcaster Ken Bruce born?

0:24:56 > 0:24:58OK, not a big radio fan.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00Erm...

0:25:01 > 0:25:04My feeling is Cork, so that's my answer.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08- He is quite Scottish.- Scottish? - Yeah, I'm afraid.

0:25:08 > 0:25:11Oh, well, I'll have to duck when I go from here now, then!

0:25:11 > 0:25:14He was born in Glasgow where we are based now.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17- Sorry about that.- Not at all. He may...

0:25:17 > 0:25:19Yeah, his accent is a bit Scottish.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21OK, Eggheads.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24In Australia, what is the approximate population

0:25:24 > 0:25:26of the greater Darwin area?

0:25:26 > 0:25:28Eggheads, is it...?

0:25:32 > 0:25:34I wouldn't have thought it was many.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37- Darwin's quite a small place, isn't it?- 145,000, I would say.

0:25:37 > 0:25:38Yeah, I would say that.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40I think it must be bigger than 14,000.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42But certainly not 1.4...

0:25:43 > 0:25:46- I'd go for 145.- Yeah, so would I. - Lisa?

0:25:46 > 0:25:49I'm going to keep my mouth shut and let the people that know

0:25:49 > 0:25:51something about it talk about it, really.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53So, Pat, you've got the casting vote, then, really.

0:25:53 > 0:25:57Well, 14-and-a-half seems just a bit too small so maybe 145?

0:25:57 > 0:26:00If it's greater Darwin, you'd assume it's...

0:26:00 > 0:26:02Yeah, add some suburbs and whatever.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04As you can tell, Jeremy, we're not absolutely sure.

0:26:04 > 0:26:08But process of elimination leads us to 145,000.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10145,000 is the right answer.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12- Well done, team. - Well done, gentlemen.

0:26:12 > 0:26:14Back to you, Challenger.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17Manchester United played against which football club

0:26:17 > 0:26:19in the 2017 Europa League final?

0:26:23 > 0:26:26OK... Need to think a little bit more

0:26:26 > 0:26:27because if I'd thought about the first one,

0:26:27 > 0:26:31Bruce would have led me to it, wouldn't it? Erm...

0:26:34 > 0:26:38OK, I don't follow Manchester United, as you can probably gather.

0:26:38 > 0:26:39I don't think it's Ajax.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43Erm... Valencia?

0:26:45 > 0:26:49The problem is my brain is leading me to Lyon,

0:26:49 > 0:26:52but Valencia is the one that's more likely for the quality

0:26:52 > 0:26:57of the football, I would have thought, isn't it? Erm...

0:26:57 > 0:27:01You should always go with your gut, I suppose, so we'll go Lyon.

0:27:01 > 0:27:02Lyon is your answer. I'm afraid it's wrong.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05- It's Ajax.- Ha! The one I...

0:27:05 > 0:27:07The one you ruled out.

0:27:07 > 0:27:08OK...

0:27:08 > 0:27:11So, you can take it with this question, Eggheads.

0:27:11 > 0:27:15Which of these London landmarks was designed by the architect John Nash?

0:27:18 > 0:27:20- Marble Arch.- Marble Arch, definitely.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23- Tower of London is much too early. - Tower of London's Norman.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27- And Nelson's Column is Railton and Baily.- Railton and Baily.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30Tower of London, yeah, that was William the Conqueror.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33Yeah, I think we've got pretty unanimous agreement

0:27:33 > 0:27:35with this one, Jeremy. Marble Arch.

0:27:35 > 0:27:37Marble Arch is your answer.

0:27:37 > 0:27:41If you've got this right, there's no way back for our Challenger.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43The correct answer is Marble Arch.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45We say congratulations, Eggheads.

0:27:45 > 0:27:46You have won.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54It's hard when they're all five there.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56It's hard when you don't know the answers, Jeremy.

0:27:56 > 0:27:59- LAUGHTER - Actually, the Bruce one, I should have got that from Bruce.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02Oh, I'll tease him about that when I see him at Radio 2.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05- All right, well, commiserations, Waterbeds.- Yeah, thank you.

0:28:05 > 0:28:07And some great warlike behaviour from... Particularly from Bart.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09That really was stunning, Bart.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11On any other day against any other Egghead,

0:28:11 > 0:28:14you might well have been in the final and maybe Bart would have

0:28:14 > 0:28:17known about Ken Bruce and it could all have turned out differently.

0:28:17 > 0:28:18- Definitely.- But here we are.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22This winning streak continues.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25It does mean the Challengers don't take the £7,000 away,

0:28:25 > 0:28:27so we roll it over to our next show.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29Eggheads, genuine congratulations.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31You played very strongly today.

0:28:31 > 0:28:32Who will beat you?

0:28:32 > 0:28:35Join us next time to see if a new team of Challengers

0:28:35 > 0:28:37can take them down, stop the run.

0:28:37 > 0:28:38There will be £8,000 to win.

0:28:38 > 0:28:40Until then, goodbye.
