0:00:04 > 0:00:08These five people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:09 > 0:00:12Together they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:12 > 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 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:26 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:30 > 0:00:35You might recognise them as they've won some of the toughest quiz shows.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37They are the Eggheads.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40Challenging our resident quiz champions today

0:00:40 > 0:00:42are Monte's Elephant from Kent.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45The team is a combination of two pub quiz teams who compete

0:00:45 > 0:00:49in the Thanet Quiz League in Ramsgate

0:00:49 > 0:00:52as the Montefiore Arms and the Elephant and Castle.

0:00:52 > 0:00:53Let's meet them.

0:00:53 > 0:00:58Hi. I'm Trisha. I'm 65 and a retired conveyancer.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Hi. I'm Ashley. I'm 58 and I'm an IT project manager.

0:01:01 > 0:01:05Hi, I'm Ingrid. I'm 51 and I'm a housewife.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08Hi, I'm Gary. I'm 52 and I'm a train driver.

0:01:08 > 0:01:13Hi. I'm Lorraine. I'm 46 and I'm a medical programme implementer.

0:01:13 > 0:01:17Welcome to you, Monte's Elephant. I was going to ask where the name comes from

0:01:17 > 0:01:20- but it must be the two pub names. - Yes, it is.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23- The Montefiore... - And the Elephant and Castle.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26Half of you go to one, and half to the other.

0:01:26 > 0:01:30- Yes.- Nice pubs?- Oh, yes. Got plenty of beer in!

0:01:30 > 0:01:33We're the Elephant. Got the ears for it!

0:01:33 > 0:01:36- I'm not an Elephant. - Who are the Elephants?

0:01:36 > 0:01:38We're the Elephants, up the far end.

0:01:38 > 0:01:42- It's your birthday, Trisha? Happy birthday.- It is. 21 again.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46I hope the Eggheads give you a present, make things easy. Though they never do!

0:01:46 > 0:01:48What will you do if you win?

0:01:48 > 0:01:51Um, travel, I think.

0:01:51 > 0:01:55- To where?- Mexico or Japan. - OK. Good luck to all of you.

0:01:55 > 0:02:00Every day, there's £1,000 cash up for grabs for our challengers.

0:02:00 > 0:02:04If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:04 > 0:02:09So, Monte's Elephant, the Eggheads have won the last nine games,

0:02:09 > 0:02:12which means £10,000 says you can't beat them.

0:02:12 > 0:02:16The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of music. Music?

0:02:16 > 0:02:19Do we have an Elephant or a Monte?

0:02:19 > 0:02:21THEY CONFER

0:02:21 > 0:02:24Probably Lorraine.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26All right, then. OK.

0:02:26 > 0:02:31- OK.- Lorraine, not in the conversation, then you were chosen! - Yeah! I'm shocked.

0:02:31 > 0:02:35- Yeah, I do music. - OK. Against which Egghead?

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Um, I will go against CJ.

0:02:38 > 0:02:43OK, so it's Lorraine from Monte's Elephant versus CJ from the Eggheads.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47To ensure no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.

0:02:48 > 0:02:52Lorraine, on your birthday last year, what happened?

0:02:52 > 0:02:57- I got kissed by Donny Osmond. - Was that accidental or were you looking for it?

0:02:57 > 0:03:02It was accidental. I was in the audience and he asked if anybody had any questions.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04My sister said, "It's my sister's birthday."

0:03:04 > 0:03:08- He ran up and gave me a big kiss. - Let's see if he comes up in Music.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11You choose first or second set, Lorraine.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13Um, I think I'll go first, please.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20Lorraine, the simple piece of music known as "Chopsticks"

0:03:20 > 0:03:23is usually played on which instrument?

0:03:25 > 0:03:30Ah. Well, I've never played an instrument apart from a recorder when I was a lot younger.

0:03:30 > 0:03:35Um, I don't think it's the violin.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37And I'm pretty sure it's not the flute

0:03:37 > 0:03:39cos my sister used to play that.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42So I'm gonna go for piano.

0:03:42 > 0:03:46Absolutely right. Do we have any pianists in Monte's Elephant?

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Yes, Trisha.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52The tune goes...

0:03:52 > 0:03:55- # Dee-dee-dee... # - It doesn't go like that!

0:03:55 > 0:03:57It doesn't go like that!

0:03:57 > 0:04:00# Da-da-da dah-dah Dah-dah-dah #

0:04:00 > 0:04:01That one. CJ,

0:04:01 > 0:04:05"Definitely Maybe", released in 1994

0:04:05 > 0:04:07was the debut album of which group?

0:04:09 > 0:04:13- That was Oasis, Jeremy. - That's the correct answer.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16Lorraine, here's your next question.

0:04:16 > 0:04:21Which Grammy-award-winning singer won the first series of American Idol

0:04:21 > 0:04:22in 2002?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Ooh, a bit of relief here.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33Rihanna my youngest daughter is a massive fan of.

0:04:33 > 0:04:37And Christina Aguilera my older daughter used to be a fan of.

0:04:37 > 0:04:41So I'm gonna go for Kelly Clarkson.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44Kelly Clarkson is quite right. Well done.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46Pressuring CJ.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52What name is given to the musical instrument in the form of a pipe

0:04:52 > 0:04:54which has a plunger rather than fingerholds

0:04:54 > 0:04:57so it slides from note to note?

0:05:02 > 0:05:05I think that's a Swanee Whistle.

0:05:05 > 0:05:06Correct.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Number three. You're doing well, Lorraine.

0:05:11 > 0:05:17Which British composer wrote Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis?

0:05:24 > 0:05:27And here my mind goes completely blank.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31I really haven't got a clue

0:05:31 > 0:05:36so by the fact that I'm going to go eeny, meeny, miny, mo,

0:05:36 > 0:05:38I'm gonna go for Edward Elgar.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42I wish you'd gone one more "mo"

0:05:42 > 0:05:46and given us Ralph Vaughan Williams cos that's the right answer. You've two points.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49CJ can still come a-cropper.

0:05:49 > 0:05:50And frequently does!

0:05:50 > 0:05:55The Anvil Chorus is from which Verdi opera?

0:06:00 > 0:06:04The problem is something occurs to me straightaway.

0:06:04 > 0:06:08That's one of the options. But I've had this question before in a quiz

0:06:08 > 0:06:11and I'm trying to think back to the answer!

0:06:11 > 0:06:16- Was it a pub quiz?- No, it was part of the professional British circuit.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Um, I'm going to plump for Rigoletto.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26Is that the answer you gave in the professional quiz circuit?

0:06:26 > 0:06:28I did if it's right, and I didn't if it's wrong.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30Because it's wrong.

0:06:30 > 0:06:31It's Il Trovatore.

0:06:31 > 0:06:35He's let you off the hook, Lorraine!

0:06:35 > 0:06:39Scores are level. It's sudden death to make it that bit harder.

0:06:39 > 0:06:40Not multiple choice.

0:06:40 > 0:06:47Here we go, Lorraine. Who sang the first line on Band Aid's 1984 Christmas UK Number One single

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Do They Know It's Christmas?

0:06:49 > 0:06:51I'm thinking of two.

0:06:51 > 0:06:55I'm gonna go alphabetically and go for Bono.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59That's wrong. It was Paul Young.

0:07:00 > 0:07:01CJ,

0:07:01 > 0:07:04get this right and you've won the head-to-head.

0:07:04 > 0:07:08Who in March 2008 became the first British woman

0:07:08 > 0:07:11to top the USA singles chart

0:07:11 > 0:07:13for more than 20 years?

0:07:13 > 0:07:15The last person to do it was Kim Wilde

0:07:15 > 0:07:21and this time with Bleeding Love I think it was Leona Lewis.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24Leona Lewis is the right answer, CJ. Well done.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Bad luck, Lorraine. Kept him hanging on.

0:07:26 > 0:07:31Beaten by our Egghead so as a result you can't help your team in the final round.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33Please both come back to the studio.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38The challengers have lost one brain from the final round.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40Eggheads have lost none.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43Lots to play for. Next subject is Sport.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Who wants Sport and against which Egghead?

0:07:46 > 0:07:48- It has to be Gary.- The only one with a chance.

0:07:48 > 0:07:52- Nobody else.- Go for it, boy. - It's got to be me cos I'm so sporty!

0:07:52 > 0:07:55Who do you want to play?

0:07:55 > 0:07:56Who looks unsporty?

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Chris or Daphne?

0:07:58 > 0:08:01You're searching out the fellow train driver.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04- Yes, that's an idea!- Or Judith?

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Yeah, Judith, then. Judith.

0:08:06 > 0:08:12OK. Gary from Monte's Elephant versus Judith from the Eggheads.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15Please take your positions in the question room.

0:08:16 > 0:08:20- Gary, you can choose the first or second set.- I'll leave the station first.

0:08:23 > 0:08:24Pulling out now!

0:08:24 > 0:08:27Which Irish Rugby Union player was nicknamed

0:08:27 > 0:08:30"Uncle Fester" by his team-mates?

0:08:34 > 0:08:38Well, it's not my strong suit, rugger.

0:08:38 > 0:08:42But Uncle Fester, as I remember, was bald-headed,

0:08:42 > 0:08:47and out of those, Willie John McBride had a good head of hair,

0:08:47 > 0:08:51and so did Mike Gibson. But Keith Wood is bald.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54So by that sort of warped logic,

0:08:54 > 0:08:58I'm gonna go for Keith Wood.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01Keith Wood was Uncle Fester, you're right.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Brilliant logic, actually.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06The Eggheads would be proud of you with that one.

0:09:06 > 0:09:07Judith,

0:09:07 > 0:09:13which tennis player was crowned BBC Sports Personality Of The Year

0:09:13 > 0:09:15in 1997?

0:09:19 > 0:09:24I think probably Jeremy Bates had stopped by then.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29So either Greg Rusedski or Tim Henman.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32I mean, Greg Rusedski is actually Canadian, isn't he?

0:09:34 > 0:09:39Maybe it was to celebrate him becoming English for the purposes of tennis.

0:09:39 > 0:09:40Um...

0:09:40 > 0:09:44On the other hand, everybody loves Tim, don't they?

0:09:46 > 0:09:50I think I'm actually... I'm going to go for Tim.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52- Going for "Tiger Tim" Henman.- Yeah.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55- You're wrong. It was Greg.- Oh!

0:09:56 > 0:09:57Second question, Gary.

0:09:57 > 0:10:02How many full-time England football managers has David Beckham played under?

0:10:05 > 0:10:08Well, he would have been with Kevin Keegan, Sven...

0:10:10 > 0:10:14Um, Sven's assistant. I can't think. McLaren.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Obviously the latest one.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20It's five or six. I don't think it's seven.

0:10:22 > 0:10:26I'm gonna... I'm gonna say six.

0:10:27 > 0:10:32- Six is your answer?- Yeah. - You're just one out. It's five.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35It's five. Sorry about that.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Judith, here's your next question.

0:10:37 > 0:10:41How many American Football teams are there in the NFL?

0:10:44 > 0:10:46I haven't the foggiest!

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Um, down the middle. 22.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51Wrong. 32.

0:10:52 > 0:10:53So,

0:10:53 > 0:10:58Gary, which cricketer attracted a record bid of 1.5 million

0:10:58 > 0:11:03in the Indian Premier League's 2008 player auction?

0:11:08 > 0:11:11I don't really know anything much about cricket.

0:11:11 > 0:11:15Sachin Tendulkar is a big name

0:11:15 > 0:11:18so I'm gonna go for Sachin Tendulkar.

0:11:18 > 0:11:22Wrong again. It was Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24Bad luck.

0:11:26 > 0:11:27OK.

0:11:27 > 0:11:32Judith, what nationality is Martin Lel,

0:11:32 > 0:11:37who won the men's London Marathon race in 2005,

0:11:37 > 0:11:392007 and 2008?

0:11:42 > 0:11:46This I should know. I did know that he won the marathon.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51I think he's a Kenyan.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55- Is that your answer?- Yes. Has to be. - You're 100 per cent certain?

0:11:55 > 0:11:57- Not in the least certain. - I can tell.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00But you're right. He was Kenyan.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03We now go to sudden death. First you, Gary.

0:12:03 > 0:12:08Which famous jump is named after the jockey who rode the horse Conrad

0:12:08 > 0:12:11in the first Grand National in 1839?

0:12:12 > 0:12:15I think I would guess on this.

0:12:15 > 0:12:21The famous jump I know was one that was named after Captain Becher.

0:12:21 > 0:12:25So I would probably say Becher's Brook.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27It was, indeed, Captain Becher.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29And it was Becher's Brook.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32Judith,

0:12:32 > 0:12:36which squash player announced in 2001 that he was defecting

0:12:36 > 0:12:40from his native Scotland to represent England

0:12:40 > 0:12:42in international competition?

0:12:42 > 0:12:45I know the name of one squash player

0:12:45 > 0:12:47and I'm not sure I'd even get that right.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50He's been a squash champion a number of times.

0:12:50 > 0:12:55I have no idea about minor squash players.

0:12:55 > 0:12:56Um...

0:12:56 > 0:13:00Do you want to give us a clue who you're thinking about?

0:13:00 > 0:13:04Well, I was thinking about Amir... I think it's Amir Khan or something.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06He was Pakistani, I think.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09The one I'm thinking of. I don't know.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11McTaggart comes to mind.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13What, the name of a Scottish person?

0:13:13 > 0:13:15Exactly.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17- So Amir McTaggart? - No, not Amir McTaggart!

0:13:20 > 0:13:23I'm just inventing it.

0:13:23 > 0:13:28- Should I take any of those answers? - Ian McTaggart. Why not? You never know!

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Ian McTaggart!

0:13:32 > 0:13:36Oh, dear. No, that's not true. It's not right. It's not correct.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39It was Peter Nicol, not Ian McTaggart.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42Judith, you're wrong.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44How about that? Well done, Gary.

0:13:44 > 0:13:48It was a tough round. He took on an Egghead and emerged triumphant.

0:13:48 > 0:13:53Good news for Monte's Elephant. Gary can play in the final round.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Both please come back to the studio.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00The challengers and the Eggheads have lost one brain each

0:14:00 > 0:14:01from the final round.

0:14:01 > 0:14:05Our next subject is Geography. Who wants Geography?

0:14:05 > 0:14:08THEY CONFER

0:14:09 > 0:14:13- You go on your travels.- Geography. - Try that.- Have a go at that.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15So it's you, Trisha. Which Egghead?

0:14:16 > 0:14:19- I'll have a go with Chris, please. - OK,

0:14:19 > 0:14:23Trisha from Monte's Elephant versus Chris from the Eggheads.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26Please take your positions in the question room.

0:14:27 > 0:14:31Here we go. First or second set, Trisha?

0:14:31 > 0:14:32I'll go first, please.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Trisha,

0:14:36 > 0:14:41the seaside town of Weymouth, popularised as a bathing resort by George III

0:14:41 > 0:14:42is in which English county?

0:14:45 > 0:14:49It's certainly not Kent, cos that's where I'm from.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52And it's not Norfolk, so I'd say Dorset.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55Like it. Snappy. You're right.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02Chris, Nepal is bordered by China and which other country?

0:15:04 > 0:15:07It's up in the Himalayas at the top end of India.

0:15:07 > 0:15:08It's India.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11You're right. It is India.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14One apiece. Back to you, Trisha.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17What does the letter C stand for in the name

0:15:17 > 0:15:21of the Australian territory abbreviated to ACT?

0:15:25 > 0:15:28Well, I don't think it's Capital.

0:15:29 > 0:15:34Culture. Could possibly be Culture.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37So it must be Australian something Territory, mustn't it?

0:15:37 > 0:15:39So...

0:15:39 > 0:15:41I'll say Cattle.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44I'm afraid you're wrong.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46Eggheads?

0:15:46 > 0:15:48- ALL: Capital. - Australian Capital Territory.

0:15:48 > 0:15:52- It's called Australian Capital Territory.- Yes.

0:15:52 > 0:15:56There we are, Trisha. Sorry about that. It wasn't Cattle.

0:15:56 > 0:16:01Chris, what is the term for a sharp, narrow mountain ridge or spur?

0:16:05 > 0:16:08Well, a drumlin is a small hill.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13Cwm is Welsh for valley, so it wouldn't be a ridge.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15So it's got to be an arete.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18Arete or arete is the correct answer.

0:16:20 > 0:16:21Trisha,

0:16:21 > 0:16:28the Langkawi Cable Car, the longest free-span, single-rope cable car in the world,

0:16:28 > 0:16:30is located in which Asian country?

0:16:34 > 0:16:36Um...

0:16:37 > 0:16:40It's something I'm not sure of

0:16:40 > 0:16:44cos I haven't been to any of those countries yet.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47- It's on your list to do, isn't it? - It is, yes.

0:16:49 > 0:16:53I think not Malaysia.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Could be Hong Kong or Japan.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01I would say Japan.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05Japan is your answer. Gary, you flinched there.

0:17:05 > 0:17:06Do you know the answer?

0:17:06 > 0:17:09Well, we think it's Malaysia.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13Yeah, it is Malaysia. That's the end of our round

0:17:13 > 0:17:17because you can't come back from there, Trisha.

0:17:17 > 0:17:21Chris, congratulations. It means Trisha will not appear in the final.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Do come back to the studio.

0:17:26 > 0:17:30OK. The challengers have lost two brains from the final round.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33The Eggheads have lost one brain over here.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36We have our last subject now before we go to the final round.

0:17:36 > 0:17:37Film and Television.

0:17:37 > 0:17:40THEY CONFER

0:17:40 > 0:17:43I don't do nothing but watch telly all day!

0:17:43 > 0:17:45You'll be fine in this round!

0:17:45 > 0:17:46OK, Ingrid.

0:17:46 > 0:17:52- Who do you want to take on? - Oh, gosh!- Who looks like they've never been in a cinema?- Kevin.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57It's Ingrid from Monte's Elephant against Kevin.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00Please take your positions in the question room.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04Ingrid, first or second set?

0:18:04 > 0:18:06I'd like to go first, please.

0:18:08 > 0:18:09Ingrid,

0:18:09 > 0:18:13Jabba the Hutt is a character in which series of films?

0:18:16 > 0:18:20Jabba the Hutt is a character in which series of films?

0:18:20 > 0:18:24Well, it's not Mission: Impossible cos that's Tom Cruise.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26Rocky, it's not that. It's Star Wars.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30Star Wars is correct.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36OK, Kevin,

0:18:36 > 0:18:40in which country was the TV drama series Prisoner: Cell Block H set?

0:18:44 > 0:18:46A masterpiece of television drama,

0:18:46 > 0:18:48and it was set in Australia.

0:18:48 > 0:18:51You're so right. Well done. One-all.

0:18:51 > 0:18:55I still maintain that show had the best theme tune ever on TV.

0:18:55 > 0:18:56You'll have to hum it, now.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59- #- You used to bring me roses

0:18:59 > 0:19:02- #- I wish you would again.- #

0:19:02 > 0:19:06OK, Ingrid. Over to you. Sorry for that moment of madness!

0:19:06 > 0:19:10Which actress has starred in remakes of King Kong, Funny Games and The Ring?

0:19:16 > 0:19:17I don't know.

0:19:17 > 0:19:21I think I'd know if it was Nicole Kidman.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Or Kate Hudson.

0:19:23 > 0:19:25I'm gonna go for Naomi Watts.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29- Your team just went "Yes!", like that.- Ooh.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32Lorraine, you went "Yes" cos you know she's right.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34She is right. Well done, Ingrid.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Brilliant.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38The spirit is with you!

0:19:38 > 0:19:42Kevin, Mummra, spelt M-U-M-M-R-A,

0:19:42 > 0:19:47was the chief villain in which animated 1980s TV series?

0:19:53 > 0:19:56I'm sure both CJ and Chris might know this

0:19:56 > 0:19:58but I haven't got a clue.

0:19:58 > 0:20:03Did they have a chief villain in The Smurfs? I don't think so.

0:20:04 > 0:20:06Evil Father Abraham, or something.

0:20:09 > 0:20:13I know nothing whatsoever about Thundercats. It's just a title.

0:20:13 > 0:20:18It means nothing to me. I know precious little about mutant thingies.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20I'll say that.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. I really don't know.

0:20:24 > 0:20:27CJ's head has hit the desk.

0:20:27 > 0:20:30This is a rare moment. You know the answer over here?

0:20:30 > 0:20:33- Thundercats!- Thundercats, they say. Kevin, you're wrong.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35Know nothing about it.

0:20:36 > 0:20:37Well, Ingrid...

0:20:37 > 0:20:42- Tell me about it!- If you get this right you knock out one of the greats.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44Please let it be on Corrie!

0:20:46 > 0:20:48- OK, here we go.- Right.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50- This doesn't happen very often.- No.

0:20:50 > 0:20:54Anthony Minghella's 2008 TV movie,

0:20:54 > 0:20:57The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency,

0:20:57 > 0:21:03was the first BBC drama shot entirely on location in which African country?

0:21:07 > 0:21:10I really, really don't know.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Um... Zambia.

0:21:17 > 0:21:18Ouch!

0:21:18 > 0:21:20- Ow.- Botswana.

0:21:22 > 0:21:23Kevin,

0:21:23 > 0:21:28which British actress played the role of Carla Jean Moss

0:21:28 > 0:21:31in the Oscar-winning film No Country For Old Men?

0:21:35 > 0:21:38That was Kelly MacDonald, Jeremy.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40Yes. Well done, Kevin.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42Two-all after three questions.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44We move to sudden death.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45Ingrid,

0:21:45 > 0:21:50what is the surname of the fictional professor and defender of the Earth

0:21:50 > 0:21:54who's been played on TV by Reginald Tate, John Robinson,

0:21:54 > 0:21:58Andre Morrell, John Mills and Jason Fleming?

0:21:58 > 0:22:01I'll know it as soon as it's said.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03I can remember John Mills in it,

0:22:03 > 0:22:05I think.

0:22:07 > 0:22:10No, I don't know. I can't think of it.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13Just need the surname. Give us a guess.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15Jackson.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Quatermass.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20- Quatermass! I knew it!- Oh, bad luck.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23Kevin, you get this, you win the round.

0:22:23 > 0:22:27In which 1978 TV drama did Bob Hoskins play Arthur Parker,

0:22:27 > 0:22:30a cowardly and dishonest sheet-music salesman?

0:22:30 > 0:22:33In the Dennis Potter series, Pennies From Heaven.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36Quite right, Kevin. You don't miss much.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39Ingrid, I'm sorry. You had a good chance,

0:22:39 > 0:22:42but he's pretty unbeatable most of the time.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45Well done, Kevin. Do come back to the studio, both of you.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50Really close. Really well played, Ingrid.

0:22:50 > 0:22:54- Thank you.- Bad luck you can't play in the final round.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57This is what we've been playing towards, our final round.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59As always, it's General Knowledge.

0:22:59 > 0:23:03Those of you who lost your head-to-heads can't take part.

0:23:03 > 0:23:06So that's Ingrid, Trisha and Lorraine from Monte's Elephant

0:23:06 > 0:23:09and Judith from the Eggheads.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11Please leave the studio.

0:23:13 > 0:23:17Well done on getting this far, guys.

0:23:17 > 0:23:21You're playing to win Monte's Elephant £10,000.

0:23:21 > 0:23:22Kevin, CJ, Daphne and Chris,

0:23:22 > 0:23:27you're playing for something money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33It's all general knowledge.

0:23:33 > 0:23:34You are allowed to confer.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38Monte's Elephant, the question is, are your two brains

0:23:38 > 0:23:41better than the Eggheads' four?

0:23:41 > 0:23:44Ashley and Gary, would you like the first or second set of questions?

0:23:44 > 0:23:47We'll go first. We've been first every round.

0:23:50 > 0:23:56Your first question. Which car manufacturer produced the Testarossa?

0:24:01 > 0:24:03That was the famous red-head.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06Red you associate with Ferrari,

0:24:06 > 0:24:07so we'll say Ferrari.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Boys have got to get that one right!

0:24:09 > 0:24:12Ferrari is correct. Well done.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16Eggheads,

0:24:16 > 0:24:20which telecommunications company was founded by Akio Morita

0:24:20 > 0:24:23and Masaru Ibuka in 1946?

0:24:28 > 0:24:30The Japanese one of those three!

0:24:30 > 0:24:34The only Japanese one out of those is Sony.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37Right answer. Well done, Eggheads.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Monte's Elephant,

0:24:39 > 0:24:44the Oscar-winning actor Javier Bardem played international rugby

0:24:44 > 0:24:46for which country as a teenager?

0:24:51 > 0:24:55I think he's the guy in No Country For Old Men.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Something tells me Argentina.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02- They like...- They play rugby. - They play rugby.

0:25:02 > 0:25:04I don't think it's Spain.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06I think...

0:25:06 > 0:25:11- It's common sense. - Argentina would be a good bet.

0:25:11 > 0:25:12A good bet, yeah.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15Yeah. We're not quite sure,

0:25:15 > 0:25:17but Argentina seems like a good guess.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22- Is that your answer?- Yes.- It's wrong. I'm sorry. It's Spain.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24Next question is for the Eggheads.

0:25:24 > 0:25:30Which organisation was founded by Dr Chad Varah in 1953?

0:25:35 > 0:25:40Which organisation was founded by Dr Chad Varah in 1953?

0:25:40 > 0:25:41The Samaritans.

0:25:41 > 0:25:45- The Samaritans. - Is the correct answer.

0:25:45 > 0:25:48There's a moment when they hear the question,

0:25:48 > 0:25:52if they've got it, they just look so unbearably smug!

0:25:52 > 0:25:54- Oh, we don't!- Welcome to my world!

0:25:54 > 0:25:58I was just looking at CJ, Daphne. Don't worry!

0:25:58 > 0:26:00Third question. You need this.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03According to the Bible,

0:26:03 > 0:26:07who was forced to help Jesus carry his cross

0:26:07 > 0:26:09to his execution?

0:26:16 > 0:26:21According to the Bible, who was forced to help Jesus carry his cross? Take your time.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24That name sprang even before they came up, for some reason.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28Was it Simon of Cyrene?

0:26:31 > 0:26:32It rings a bell, doesn't it?

0:26:34 > 0:26:36I'm not any way near sure,

0:26:36 > 0:26:40but the only thing... Who was Barabbas?

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Wasn't he crucified at the same time, Barabbas?

0:26:44 > 0:26:46Perhaps. But maybe he helped him.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48So was it Simon of Cyrene?

0:26:48 > 0:26:50What are you thinking?

0:26:50 > 0:26:54- Not sure.- We think Barabbas was crucified at the same time

0:26:54 > 0:26:57and therefore he'd have his own cross to bear.

0:26:57 > 0:27:01Or whether it was Simon... We don't think it's Joseph Caiaphas,

0:27:01 > 0:27:03for reasons we can't explain!

0:27:03 > 0:27:06- Cos we've never heard of him! - That's one problem!

0:27:07 > 0:27:10Simon of Cyrene.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12- That's your answer?- Yeah.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14You're right!

0:27:16 > 0:27:21Still in with a chance. Was Barabbas released instead of Jesus?

0:27:21 > 0:27:25- Yes.- That's what happened? So he was out of the picture by this point.

0:27:25 > 0:27:26Now it gets exciting.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28As if it wasn't already.

0:27:28 > 0:27:32Eggheads, the BND is the federal intelligence agency

0:27:32 > 0:27:34of which national government?

0:27:36 > 0:27:39Got to be Germany.

0:27:41 > 0:27:44- That is Germany.- Do you know what it stands for?

0:27:44 > 0:27:47- Um...- Bundesnachrichtendienst.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49How do you know that, Kevin?

0:27:49 > 0:27:52- He's an Egghead!- It is the Bundesnachrichtendienst!

0:27:52 > 0:27:55He is an Egghead, and the Eggheads have won.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02Just neck and neck and then "Bang!" at the end.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04Commiserations, challengers.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.

0:28:07 > 0:28:10I'm afraid you won't be going home with that precious £10,000.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13That money will now roll over to our next show. Eggheads,

0:28:13 > 0:28:16congratulations. Who will beat you?

0:28:16 > 0:28:18We'll wait and see. Join us next time

0:28:18 > 0:28:22to see if the new challengers have the brains to defeat this lot.

0:28:22 > 0:28:26£11,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye!
