0:00:04 > 0:00:09These five people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Hello and welcome to Eggheads,
0:00:25 > 0:00:29the show where a team of five quiz challengers pit their wits against
0:00:29 > 0:00:31possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33You might recognise them,
0:00:33 > 0:00:36as they are Goliaths in the world of TV quiz shows.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38They are the Eggheads.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41And taking on the awesome might of our quiz giants today
0:00:41 > 0:00:43are...
0:00:43 > 0:00:46The team are all mature medical students
0:00:46 > 0:00:48at St George's Hospital, University of London.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50And when they aren't studying,
0:00:50 > 0:00:53they are quite successful on the pub quiz circuit. Let's meet them.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Charlie, I'm 32, I'm a medical student.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Peter, I'm 26, I'm a medical student.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Joe. I'm 26 and I'm a medical student.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Hi, I'm Ben, I'm 27 and I'm a medical student.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Hi, I'm Charlie, I'm 30 and also a medical student.
0:01:11 > 0:01:16- Charlie, you're all medical students but studying later in life.- We are.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Because you took a wrong turn somewhere?
0:01:18 > 0:01:21I wouldn't say that, exactly.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23I think we all decided to do medicine later on
0:01:23 > 0:01:26because it was something we really wanted to do.
0:01:26 > 0:01:31What's the most un-medical thing any of you have done before this course?
0:01:31 > 0:01:35There's a lot from our year have done some bizarre things...
0:01:35 > 0:01:37- Glass blowing, things like that. - Glass blowing.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40- Journalism is pretty strange. - Journalism is bizarre.
0:01:40 > 0:01:45- I worked in a chocolate factory for a few years.- A chocolate factory!
0:01:45 > 0:01:48How far... It's a four year course,
0:01:48 > 0:01:51- so, you're how far in?- We're coming to the end of our second year.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53OK, good luck.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Young teams have been doing very well lately
0:01:55 > 0:01:59- and you are still young, aren't you?- Why, thank you(!)
0:01:59 > 0:02:03- You are. Compared to our Eggheads. Every day...- Ahem!
0:02:03 > 0:02:04Sorry CJ.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08Every day there is £1,000 cash up for grabs for our challengers,
0:02:08 > 0:02:11however if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:02:11 > 0:02:13the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:13 > 0:02:18So, Don't Be A Stupid Head...and by the way, how'd you get that name?
0:02:18 > 0:02:21- Joe?- Well, me and Pete were watching Eggheads one time
0:02:21 > 0:02:24when Pete got a very, very easy question wrong.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26I told him not to be a stupid head,
0:02:26 > 0:02:29and then we thought about that a bit more, and we thought that might be
0:02:29 > 0:02:32a good aspirational approach to our medical career,
0:02:32 > 0:02:34so that's kind of where it came from.
0:02:34 > 0:02:35So, Don't Be A Stupid Head,
0:02:35 > 0:02:39the Eggheads have won the last eight games,
0:02:39 > 0:02:42which means £9,000 says you can't beat them.
0:02:42 > 0:02:43Are you ready?
0:02:43 > 0:02:47The first head-to-head is on the subject of Arts & Books,
0:02:47 > 0:02:49who's the artist or book-lover here?
0:02:49 > 0:02:53This was the one we didn't want.
0:02:53 > 0:02:54Get it out the way, that's good!
0:02:54 > 0:02:57- Who was it? It was one of you two. - Was it, now(!)
0:02:57 > 0:03:00- I don't mind. What do you want to do?- I don't mind.
0:03:00 > 0:03:01OK, I'll do it.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04All right, so Charlie, but you've got to choose
0:03:04 > 0:03:06- an Egghead to play against.- Erm...
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Which one?
0:03:08 > 0:03:11- What about Chris? On Arts & Books...- OK.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Erm, Chris.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16OK, so Charlie from Don't Be A Stupid Head
0:03:16 > 0:03:18versus Chris from the Eggheads.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Please leave the studio, take your positions in the question room.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24I'll ask each of you three multiple choice questions
0:03:24 > 0:03:25on Arts & Books, in turn.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Whoever answers the most correctly wins this round,
0:03:28 > 0:03:30the other person won't play in the final round.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34Charlie... You know the rules, you guys watch the whole time!
0:03:34 > 0:03:36- Ready!- So you'll know I'm going to ask you
0:03:36 > 0:03:40- whether you want the first or second set.- I think I'll go with the second.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46So, we start with Chris. The Witches and Tales Of The Unexpected
0:03:46 > 0:03:47are books by which writer?
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Yeah, they are by Roald Dahl.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58You said that as if you wanted a fanfare, drums or something.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01You're right though.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Charlie, "all that glisters is not gold"
0:04:04 > 0:04:06and "the quality of mercy is not strained"
0:04:06 > 0:04:10are famous lines from which play by Shakespeare?
0:04:10 > 0:04:15Is it...
0:04:15 > 0:04:18I am pretty sure it's not the Merchant Of Venice
0:04:18 > 0:04:23but I really don't have a clue, so I am going to guess with...
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Twelfth Night.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28It's not Twelfth Night and it's actually not King Lear either.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31So, Merchant Of Venice was the correct answer,
0:04:31 > 0:04:34but that doesn't come up on a medical course, does it?
0:04:34 > 0:04:36- No, not too often.- Not that much.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Chris, who painted the portrait of Whistlejacket,
0:04:41 > 0:04:43which usually hangs in the National Gallery?
0:04:50 > 0:04:52I'm assuming Whistlejacket's a horse
0:04:52 > 0:04:56and the great painter of horse portraits was George Stubbs.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58So, that would be the answer, George Stubbs.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02That is exactly the right answer but I can't picture the painting.
0:05:02 > 0:05:03Who's seen it?
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Yes, it's a huge painting,
0:05:05 > 0:05:07and it's the horse and there's no background.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10- Just a brown horse standing there. - No...- It's rearing.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14- It's rearing...- Rearing?- Yes. But it hasn't got a background.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16It's got no kind of fields or trees...
0:05:16 > 0:05:20- In fact the background is just a very light green.- Wonderful.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23A light green colour so the horse stands out really well.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26OK, Charlie, your question.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31A Prisoner Of Birth is a 2008 novel by which writer?
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Well, I know Jeffrey Archer spent a little while in prison,
0:05:41 > 0:05:43and again I don't have a clue on this,
0:05:43 > 0:05:45so I'm going to guess Jeffrey Archer.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Absolutely, Jeffrey Archer is the right answer.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Well done, you're off the starting line!
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Chris, your third question. If you get this you take the round.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Who wrote the 1969 bestseller Portnoy's Complaint?
0:05:57 > 0:06:01Was it...
0:06:01 > 0:06:05I don't want people going away with the idea I've ever read it,
0:06:05 > 0:06:07but I know it's by Philip Roth.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09It is by Philip Roth. What's that book about?
0:06:09 > 0:06:13- This is a family programme! - It's six o'clock!
0:06:13 > 0:06:17Yes, it's about something post-watershed, you're right.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Er... Have you all read it?
0:06:20 > 0:06:24- ALL: No... - It gets medical at times.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Chris, you got that right,
0:06:26 > 0:06:28that means, Charlie, there's no way back for you
0:06:28 > 0:06:31because of the wrong answer earlier, so bad luck to you.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Chris will be in the final round.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37Charlie, you won't. Please both of you come back to the studio.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42As it stands, the challengers have lost one brain from the final round,
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Eggheads have lost no brains, but it's early days.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Next subject is Science.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50This is your subject,
0:06:50 > 0:06:52you can't fail here! Who wants to take it on?
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- I think I have drawn the short straw here.- OK, Joe.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- I'll take it on.- Which is the most unscientific Egghead,
0:06:58 > 0:07:00that you can see?
0:07:00 > 0:07:04- Judith?- Weren't we going to go for Kevin on that one?
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- Knock Kevin out for the final round? - One of the two. Who do you want?
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Kevin then, please.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12So, it's Joe from Don't Be A Stupid Head, versus
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Kevin from the Eggheads, on science.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17Please do go to the question room now.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21I'll ask each of you three questions on science in turn,
0:07:21 > 0:07:23multiple choice. First set or second set, Joe?
0:07:23 > 0:07:25I'd like the second set, please.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Kevin, first question to you.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32The skin damage known as sunburn is caused
0:07:32 > 0:07:36by exposure to harmful levels of which kind of ray?
0:07:41 > 0:07:43That's ultraviolet rays, Jeremy.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47Quite right, or UV.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49So, Joe, your first question.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52What is the term for a drink that is designed to replace
0:07:52 > 0:07:58the fluids and salts lost from the body during strenuous exercise?
0:08:04 > 0:08:08Well, I think I know the answer more from adverts than medical studies.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11I think the answer is isotonic.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14Isotonic is right, what is diuretic, medical man?
0:08:14 > 0:08:17I think it makes you wee.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20I see, so it's the opposite.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Kevin, your second question.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25The atlas and the axis are bones in which part of the human body?
0:08:29 > 0:08:32They are part of the spinal column in the neck.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36They are indeed.
0:08:36 > 0:08:37OK, Joe,
0:08:37 > 0:08:39you need this.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43The Ishihara test is used to diagnose which condition?
0:08:47 > 0:08:51They are little charts where you look at numbers
0:08:51 > 0:08:54and I think our friend Pete suffers from this. It's colour blindness.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56- Do you Pete, is that right?- Yes.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- And did you have an Ishihara test?- Yes.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03Because that is the correct answer, well done.
0:09:03 > 0:09:08Kevin. What is the name of the radiation belt encircling the earth?
0:09:08 > 0:09:14Is it...
0:09:14 > 0:09:19If it was Van Helsing there'd be vampires in it. It's Van Allen.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22You're quite right. Everything in there but Van Morrison.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25- Yeah. - Well, done, three points to you.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27So, the disadvantage of going second,
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Joe, is that you've got the pressure on now,
0:09:30 > 0:09:34if you get this wrong you are also out of the final round, good luck.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37What chemical is often used to produce light in street lamps?
0:09:42 > 0:09:47Well, I should know this because I used to do some chemistry,
0:09:47 > 0:09:50and I don't think it's rubidium,
0:09:50 > 0:09:53because that's a different sort of element.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56I am going to go for... HE EXHALES
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Sodium.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03- OK. Pfft! Sodium, with a little exhalation.- Indeed.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05It is "pfft" sodium, you're right.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Sodium is correct.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10So it's three all, we go to sudden death.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12So, Kevin, your question.
0:10:12 > 0:10:18Which acute infectious disease caused by streptococcal bacteria
0:10:18 > 0:10:22takes its popular name from the colour of the rash
0:10:22 > 0:10:25that sufferers typically develop?
0:10:25 > 0:10:28I think for that I would go for scarlet fever.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32- That's your answer?- Yes. - You're right,
0:10:32 > 0:10:36scarlet fever, or scarlatina.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Pressure back on you, Joe.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42What type of astronomical object is said to exhibit a tail
0:10:42 > 0:10:48and takes it name from the Greek word meaning "hairy one"?
0:10:48 > 0:10:55The only thing I can think of that might be appropriate is a comet.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Comet is correct.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Kevin, which common British bird
0:11:00 > 0:11:04has the scientific name Troglodytes troglodytes,
0:11:04 > 0:11:09due to its preference for cave-like places?
0:11:09 > 0:11:11One of the smallest - that's the wren.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13You're right. Never knew that.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- Did you know that, Daphne?- Yes.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19- It's a wren...- Used to be on the farthing.- Troglodytes troglodytes.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Why say it twice, though?
0:11:22 > 0:11:26- It's so good they named it twice. - So good they named it twice.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Oh dear... Over to you, Joe.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31The lower, middle and upper epochs
0:11:31 > 0:11:34of which geological period
0:11:34 > 0:11:38are referred to as Lias, Dogger and Malm?
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Lias is spelled L-I-A-S,
0:11:41 > 0:11:45Dogger, D-O-G-G-E-R, Malm, M-A-L-M.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50Ooh, this really is a tricky one for me,
0:11:50 > 0:11:51the only thing I can think of
0:11:51 > 0:11:54that might even be a geological period is Jurassic.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58I don't think that's right, but I'll go for that. Jurassic, please.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00Jurassic's your answer.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02You boys are sharp, you're right.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06You can even, like, cheer a little, at that point,
0:12:06 > 0:12:08because that was a good answer!
0:12:09 > 0:12:10Kevin,
0:12:10 > 0:12:14which allotrope of oxygen occurs naturally in small amounts
0:12:14 > 0:12:16in the earth's stratosphere,
0:12:16 > 0:12:20where it absorbs potentially harmful solar radiation?
0:12:20 > 0:12:23That's ozone, the ozone layer.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27You're quite right. What does ozone smell of?
0:12:27 > 0:12:28- Geraniums.- Geraniums!
0:12:28 > 0:12:32- Yes, isn't that a useless fact to know.- It is.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35- How do you know that?- I must've read it.- Have you smelt it or something?
0:12:35 > 0:12:38No, no, I must have read it somewhere...
0:12:38 > 0:12:40"The ozone layer smells of geraniums."
0:12:40 > 0:12:44- How do they know?- They must have sent a spaceman up there.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46And they opened a window, you mean? Had a sniff?
0:12:46 > 0:12:49- What? Opened the window of his rocket?- And had a sniff?
0:12:49 > 0:12:52We've got to get back to Joe, cos he's on tenterhooks.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55We'll come back to geraniums...later on.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Joe, you're playing a great game here,
0:12:57 > 0:12:59and at some point one of you will crack
0:12:59 > 0:13:01and you have to hope it's Kevin.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Which armoured mammal of Africa and Asia takes its name
0:13:04 > 0:13:06from the Malayan for "rolling over",
0:13:06 > 0:13:11relating to its habit of rolling into a ball if attacked?
0:13:11 > 0:13:15Well, for this one I think I'm going for an armadillo.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19Armadillo is your answer.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22It's wrong. I could have accepted scaly anteater,
0:13:22 > 0:13:24the answer is the pangolin.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Sorry, Joe, but you played so well there,
0:13:27 > 0:13:30nearly, nearly had Kevin off the edge.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Well done, Kevin. Joe, you were beaten by our Egghead so you can't
0:13:33 > 0:13:35help your team in the final round.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Please both of you come back to the studio.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41As it stands the challengers have lost two brains
0:13:41 > 0:13:43from the final round,
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Eggheads haven't lost any. We've got to think about pulverising them now.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Next subject is Sport.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Which one of you wants to go on Sport?
0:13:50 > 0:13:54Do you know your football?
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Ben, are you nodding?
0:13:56 > 0:13:58I'm game.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01Against who, Ben?
0:14:01 > 0:14:04OK, I think we'll choose Judith.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07So, Ben from Don't Be A Stupid Head against Judith
0:14:07 > 0:14:11from the Eggheads on Sport, please take your positions.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16So it's multiple choice, three questions. First or second set for you?
0:14:16 > 0:14:19I will go first, please.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Is that because the strategy has changed?
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Just trying to keep the Eggheads on their toes.
0:14:26 > 0:14:27Your first question.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31Paul Jewell became the manager of which football club in 2007?
0:14:35 > 0:14:39OK, well Paul Jewell did a very good job
0:14:39 > 0:14:42at Wigan for a while and Sheffield Wednesday,
0:14:42 > 0:14:43which a friend of mine supports.
0:14:43 > 0:14:50He left Wigan at the end of one season or another
0:14:50 > 0:14:53and he went on to Derby County.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56You said that with great certainty and you're right, well done.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01Judith, here we are again with Sport.
0:15:01 > 0:15:05In which year did Carl Lewis win his last Olympic gold medal?
0:15:11 > 0:15:15I think it was later rather than earlier...
0:15:17 > 0:15:18..so I'm going to say 1996.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23It was later rather than earlier, well done. A point each.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29Ben, in which town was the cricket umpire Dickie Bird born?
0:15:34 > 0:15:37I must admit this will be slightly more of a hunch,
0:15:37 > 0:15:41although Dickie Bird, I'm sure I've seen him
0:15:41 > 0:15:45at some FA Cup games, supporting a certain team.
0:15:45 > 0:15:51I'm sure it was Barnsley that he ended up supporting.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54So, on that basis alone I will go for Barnsley.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Absolutely right, well done.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Your team-mates are very pleased with you.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03So, pressure still on you, Judith.
0:16:03 > 0:16:09In which Canadian city is the circuit Gilles Villeneuve used for many motoring races?
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Well, I'm sure it's not Vancouver.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20I think it's Montreal or Quebec.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Oh dear, it could be either.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26I think it's Montreal.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Why do you think that?
0:16:28 > 0:16:32- Well, I don't know.- Well, you just said it with alacrity.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Well, I just have a feeling I've heard that it is.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Somebody came up to you and told you.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39No, I read the papers once in a while.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43Brilliant, well done. It is Montreal, Judith.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47It's the largest Francophone city in the world after Paris.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50- Is that right? Montreal.- Yeah.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Your third question now, Ben. Playing well.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Which sport might you play with equipment
0:16:57 > 0:17:00that has long or short pimples or pips?
0:17:06 > 0:17:09I must admit I'm out of my comfort zone on this one.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12I wouldn't have thought it would be darts.
0:17:12 > 0:17:17I can't see the fine figures of sportsmen that are darts players
0:17:17 > 0:17:20using anything as technical as that.
0:17:21 > 0:17:25Table tennis table isn't the biggest bit of equipment in the world
0:17:25 > 0:17:29so I wouldn't have thought you'd need long pimples for that.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32So, I will say golf.
0:17:32 > 0:17:36You know I looked at this and I thought, I love table tennis,
0:17:36 > 0:17:39where are these pimples? I realised they are on the bat.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Table tennis is the answer.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43- It's what you need for the spin, isn't it?- Yes.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45The longer pimples are on the red side for spin.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49The shorter pimples are usually on the black side for speed.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53You were looking on the table and they were on the bat, Ben, sorry.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56Judith, for the round.
0:17:56 > 0:18:03Which tennis player reached the Wimbledon men's singles final in 1974 at the age of 39?
0:18:08 > 0:18:12I'm absolutely sure Lew Hoad had stopped by then
0:18:12 > 0:18:16because he was in the '50s.
0:18:16 > 0:18:21Ken Rosewall went on till he was quite old, '74...
0:18:24 > 0:18:25..I think it was Ken Rosewall.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Are we getting anything on John Newcombe?
0:18:30 > 0:18:34- Er...well...- Not much.- No.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36It's lucky he didn't come into the picture.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39You're right about Ken Rosewall, well done, Judith.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Well played and you will be in the final round.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44Ben, sorry you won't be, cos you've been beaten by our Egghead.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47So you can't help them in the last round.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Please, both of you come back. Rejoin your teams.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54The challengers have lost three brains from the final round,
0:18:54 > 0:18:59the Eggheads haven't lost any brains and are feeling fit and healthy.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01The last subject is Film & Television.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Who from the challengers wants to play Film & Television?
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Do you know?
0:19:07 > 0:19:11- It's got to be Pete.- Yeah.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Well, do you wanna stay... till the end?- It's Charlie?
0:19:14 > 0:19:15No, I'm gonna go.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Oh, Pete, right. Peter against who?
0:19:20 > 0:19:23- Daphne.- OK, Peter from Don't Be A Stupid Head
0:19:23 > 0:19:27- against Daphne. Are you ready, Daphne?- Oh, no.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31Don't be beguiled by that. Daphne for the Eggheads.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34So there's no conferring, please go to the question room.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37So, Peter you're from Ireland.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40- Yep.- But you've been here for a couple of years?
0:19:40 > 0:19:41Two years now, to study.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45We're trying to make out what's on your T-shirt, we think it's a ribcage.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47- Yeah, it is!- It's not your rib cage. - No, not mine.
0:19:47 > 0:19:53It helps me cheat at my medical exams. I can look down and see the different ribs.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55You can take that into an exam?
0:19:55 > 0:19:59I've pushed it once or twice. The examiners haven't been that bright.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01They haven't really noticed yet.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03You got it into the Eggheads contest, well done.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06I'll ask each of you three questions on Film & TV, multiple choice.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10- Would you like the first or second set?- I'll go first.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Peter, who played the role of Roxie Hart
0:20:15 > 0:20:18in the 2002 musical film Chicago?
0:20:24 > 0:20:27I know it wasn't Julia Roberts or Andie MacDowell.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31I'm sure Renee Zellweger did a musical of some shape or form
0:20:31 > 0:20:34in the last year, so I'll go with Renee Zellweger.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Spot on, it was Renee. Well done.
0:20:38 > 0:20:42Who is the presenter of the BBC series Life In Cold Blood, Daphne?
0:20:48 > 0:20:53I think that's the series that David Attenborough
0:20:53 > 0:20:56did about reptiles.
0:20:56 > 0:21:01- It is, I'm being convincing.- It is.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04It's gone red, it's right, it's the great David Attenborough.
0:21:04 > 0:21:05Well done.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Next question, Peter.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Officer Dibble was one of the main characters
0:21:10 > 0:21:12in which television cartoon?
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Never heard of Hong Kong Phooey.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23The Flintstones I don't remember a police officer,
0:21:23 > 0:21:26but I do remember a police officer in Top Cat,
0:21:26 > 0:21:28so I'll go with Top Cat.
0:21:28 > 0:21:32You remember Officer Dibble. Well done, it was Top Cat.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37Daphne, what was the name of the 1980s TV series
0:21:37 > 0:21:40starring Kate O'Mara, set on a North Sea ferry?
0:21:45 > 0:21:46Well, they called it Triangle
0:21:46 > 0:21:51because it was a ferry that went between three ports.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53So, Triangle.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54Triangle it is.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Well done. Two points apiece. Back to you, Peter.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Which Oscar nominated actress played the title role
0:22:00 > 0:22:03in the 1990s drama series The Governor?
0:22:13 > 0:22:16I can't think who has been nominated for an Oscar there.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20The most obvious one in my head would be Helen Mirren,
0:22:20 > 0:22:23but...I don't remember her being associated
0:22:23 > 0:22:26with that name and that programme.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31I'll go with Helen Mirren.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Often the obvious guess, the one that stands out is the right one.
0:22:34 > 0:22:38Not in this case. It was Janet McTeer.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40All right, 2-2
0:22:40 > 0:22:44Peter, you've got to hope that Daphne trips up here.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Daphne, which British actor won an Oscar for portraying Thomas More
0:22:47 > 0:22:49in the 1966 film A Man For All Seasons?
0:22:55 > 0:23:00Do you know the first ever fan letter I ever wrote
0:23:00 > 0:23:06was after seeing Paul Scofield in Henry IV Part One.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09I think it's Paul Scofield.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11It is and what did your letter say?
0:23:11 > 0:23:14I just thought he was the most gorgeous thing I'd ever seen!
0:23:14 > 0:23:17It was a long time ago.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Well done, Daphne. Peter, you were beaten by our Egghead.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24Commiserations to you and to our challengers here.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Please come back and rejoin your teams.
0:23:27 > 0:23:33This is what we've been playing towards. It's the final round which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35But anyone who lost their head-to-head
0:23:35 > 0:23:37is not allowed to take part in this round.
0:23:37 > 0:23:43I'm only looking on this side cos it's Peter, Joe, Ben and Charlie from Don't Be A Stupid Head.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47Don't be embarrassed because there's so many of you. Please leave the studio.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Charlie, I'm gonna give you a comforting fact.
0:23:51 > 0:23:56The last two occasions where the Eggheads have lost there has only been one person sitting there.
0:23:56 > 0:24:01So, not only is it not a bad thing, it may even be a good thing.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03I don't know why, I can't explain it.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06You're playing to win Don't Be A Stupid Head £9,000.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10Judith, Kevin, CJ, Daphne and Chris,
0:24:10 > 0:24:13you're playing for what money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16As usual I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20The questions are all general knowledge and you are allowed to confer.
0:24:20 > 0:24:26Don't Be A Stupid Head the question is, is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?
0:24:26 > 0:24:30Charlie, first or second set of questions?
0:24:30 > 0:24:31I'll take the second, please.
0:24:33 > 0:24:34Here we go, Eggheads.
0:24:34 > 0:24:40What name is sometimes given to the tops of ocean waves in particularly choppy weather?
0:24:46 > 0:24:48< White horses for that.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50- Yeah, CJ.- CJ.
0:24:50 > 0:24:55Recently voted the best TV commercial ever in Britain
0:24:55 > 0:24:59was the Guinness one, which had white horses over the top of the waves.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01OK, so, it's not white tigers?
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Or white monkeys, which is interesting!
0:25:03 > 0:25:06You're right. First point to you, Eggheads.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11Charlie, numpty is an affectionate Scottish term for what?
0:25:15 > 0:25:20I used to work with a Scotsman who was my boss, in fact.
0:25:20 > 0:25:21In the chocolate factory?
0:25:21 > 0:25:22No, this was for a magazine
0:25:22 > 0:25:26and he was the editor and he'd often refer to me as a numpty.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29I don't think he meant that as a husband or child,
0:25:29 > 0:25:32so I think that's an idiot.
0:25:32 > 0:25:37You're right, numpty, affectionately means idiot.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Your second question, Eggheads.
0:25:39 > 0:25:45What type of animal is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' father figure Master Splinter?
0:25:50 > 0:25:52What type of animal is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'
0:25:52 > 0:25:56father figure Master Splinter?
0:25:56 > 0:25:59He's a sensei and he's a mutant rat.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Is that the right answer?
0:26:01 > 0:26:04Well done, he is, yeah.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Your second question, Charlie.
0:26:06 > 0:26:12Which city became the new starting point of the Orient Express' nightly journey in June 2007?
0:26:16 > 0:26:18Which city became the new starting point
0:26:18 > 0:26:23of the Orient Express' nightly journey in June 2007?
0:26:23 > 0:26:27I always thought the Orient Express was...
0:26:29 > 0:26:34..from London to the Orient,
0:26:34 > 0:26:38that probably being Turkey via Vienna.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42So I'm not really sure about any of these.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46OK, I'm not really sure about this at all.
0:26:46 > 0:26:52I'm only going for this on the basis of which would be the biggest city
0:26:52 > 0:26:55and is most famous from a railway point of view.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57So, I am going to go for Lyons.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59You're going for Lyons.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02Chris, you know this?
0:27:02 > 0:27:05I don't actually know this because it's modern stuff but...
0:27:05 > 0:27:08the main lines out of Lyons go north to south,
0:27:08 > 0:27:10as do the main lines out of Grenoble.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12The Orient by definition heads east.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15The main line out of Strasbourg heads east,
0:27:15 > 0:27:17so I'd say it's Strasbourg.
0:27:17 > 0:27:18Strasbourg is the right answer.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20Sorry, Charlie.
0:27:20 > 0:27:23So, you're now lagging behind as we go into question three.
0:27:25 > 0:27:29Eggheads, if you get this right the contest is yours.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34Which architect designed the famous red telephone box?
0:27:42 > 0:27:47Which architect designed the famous red telephone box, Eggheads?
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Giles Gilbert Scott.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52You didn't even hesitate.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54- No.- What did Pugin do?
0:27:54 > 0:27:56- Houses of Parliament. - Various churches.
0:27:56 > 0:28:01Pugin did the inside, Barry did the outside of the Houses of Parliament.
0:28:01 > 0:28:06Well, from the point of view of our other team I am sorry to say,
0:28:06 > 0:28:08that you are right.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10It was Giles Gilbert Scott.
0:28:10 > 0:28:11Eggheads, you've won.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20Commiserations, Charlie. Bad luck to you and your team.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22The Eggheads have done what's natural to them.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26Their winning streak continues, so we can't send you home
0:28:26 > 0:28:30with the £9,000, which means the money rolls over to the next show.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34Eggheads, congratulations. Who will ever beat you?
0:28:34 > 0:28:38Join us to see if the new challengers have the brains to beat the Eggheads.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41£10,000 will say they don't.
0:28:41 > 0:28:42Till then, goodbye.
