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 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly - no, probably - the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:36You might recognise them, as they're Goliaths in the world of TV quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.
0:00:36 > 0:00:40Taking on the might of our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:40 > 0:00:43are the Carebears from Birmingham.
0:00:43 > 0:00:47The team all work in the care industry and they take their name
0:00:47 > 0:00:50from the nickname given to social workers by the police.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Hi, I'm Steve, I'm 51 and a social worker.
0:00:53 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Jenny, I'm 37 and I'm a senior social work assistant.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Pete, I'm 38 and I'm a referrals officer.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Hello, I'm Sarah, I'm 36 and I'm a social worker.
0:01:06 > 0:01:10Hello, I'm Rick, I'm 41 and I'm a student nurse.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14So welcome, Carebears. Steve, that's the nickname?
0:01:14 > 0:01:18Yes, that's the nickname the police give us sometimes,
0:01:18 > 0:01:21because they feel we're sometimes a bit pink and fluffy.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Are you all in the same pink and fluffy work?
0:01:24 > 0:01:28- It's not pink and fluffy actually, is it?- It isn't, no.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31There's four of us who work in social work in inner city Birmingham,
0:01:31 > 0:01:36mainly in child protection. One of the team, Rick,
0:01:36 > 0:01:40is a trainee nurse at the moment, which, again, is a fairly tough job.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43And you're the Scrabble player here?
0:01:43 > 0:01:45- I play tournament Scrabble. - That will immediately
0:01:45 > 0:01:49ring alarm bells over there, because they'll know you've got
0:01:49 > 0:01:51an Eggy kind of brain.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Good luck. Every day there's £1,000
0:01:55 > 0:01:57worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers. However, if they fail
0:01:57 > 0:02:02to defeat the Eggheads the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:02 > 0:02:08So, Carebears, the Eggheads have won the last ten games,
0:02:08 > 0:02:13which means that £11,000 says you can't beat them.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17The first round, head to head battle is on the subject of history.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20So, challengers, which of you is the historian?
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Team Captain?
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Who did we agree was History?
0:02:24 > 0:02:26- Definitely Pete.- I think Pete.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30So Pete, referrals officer, which one of these
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- would you like to refer to? - I'm going to take advice from my team
0:02:33 > 0:02:36Captain here, cos I always do what he says, he's senior management
0:02:36 > 0:02:41and pretends to work for a living. Steve, what do you think?
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Pete take on CJ.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46So it's Pete from the Carebears against CJ from the Eggheads.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions
0:02:50 > 0:02:52in the question room.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54I'm going to ask each of you three multiple choice
0:02:54 > 0:02:56questions on history in turn.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Whoever answers the most correctly, funnily enough, is the winner.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03Pete, you get a chance to choose the first or second set of questions.
0:03:03 > 0:03:08Let's try and crank the pressure on myself and go first.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13The Act of Supremacy made which monarch
0:03:13 > 0:03:18the head of the English Church?
0:03:20 > 0:03:25I reckon that was when old Henry VIII was having a bit of trouble
0:03:25 > 0:03:30trying to get a divorce and the Pope didn't want to let him have one,
0:03:30 > 0:03:34so he decided to set up the Church of England instead,
0:03:34 > 0:03:37get rid of the wife, get a new one. I believe it was a lot
0:03:37 > 0:03:39cheaper in those days as well, it just cost you half a country.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41So I'm going to say Henry VIII.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Great, you know the lot and you're right as well. One point to you.
0:03:45 > 0:03:51CJ, what type of the vehicle was the World War II after Avro Lancaster?
0:03:55 > 0:03:59It's the Avro bit that's throwing me. The Lancaster was an aeroplane,
0:03:59 > 0:04:03but I assumed the Avro is just a bit plonked on the front of that.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05So I hope it's an aeroplane.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07- You think it's an aeroplane with an Avro on the front?- Yes.
0:04:07 > 0:04:12Avro is just AV Rowe - the AV being the initials and Rowe the surname,
0:04:12 > 0:04:15the original manufacturer.
0:04:15 > 0:04:20It's the name of the company, CJ, and you were right any way,
0:04:20 > 0:04:22so you don't even have to know it.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26Second question, Pete. Which Italian city state gave its name
0:04:26 > 0:04:27to a late medieval gold coin
0:04:27 > 0:04:30that later became standard across Europe?
0:04:34 > 0:04:38This is a bit tricky because it's a bit before I was born.
0:04:38 > 0:04:44But I'm thinking towards Florence, because Florence, florin, I've heard
0:04:44 > 0:04:46the florin, but part of me says
0:04:46 > 0:04:50florin's more northern European, possibly British. It's tricky.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53I don't think it was Rome.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56I don't know why I don't think it was Rome,
0:04:56 > 0:04:58but it's not singing to me.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02I think a process of elimination, and not really knowing
0:05:02 > 0:05:05what I'm talking about, means I'm going to go for Venice.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09OK...
0:05:09 > 0:05:11You were getting so warm and then you got the wrong answer.
0:05:11 > 0:05:16- It's the florin from Florence. - I talked myself out of it.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Yeah.
0:05:18 > 0:05:23CJ, which US President created the Federal Reserve Banking system?
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Strangely I don't know this straight off.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- Presidents being my specialty.- You read a book about them last week?
0:05:35 > 0:05:39It wasn't last week, it was about four years ago.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43I would hope, I mean, that Wilson and Truman
0:05:43 > 0:05:45are well into the 20th century
0:05:45 > 0:05:48and I'd hope the Federal Reserve predates that.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51I'm wondering if it was set up
0:05:51 > 0:05:54to help fund the civil war, so I'll go for Lincoln.
0:05:54 > 0:05:59- When you read this book four years ago, was this mentioned?- No.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02I thought so, because it was Woodrow Wilson.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Pete, that's good news for you.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10According to the Anglo-Saxon chronicle
0:06:10 > 0:06:13what did the inhabitants of Northumbria see in the sky
0:06:13 > 0:06:16before the Viking invasion of AD793?
0:06:21 > 0:06:22Gosh!
0:06:22 > 0:06:26There's some question. I'm trying to work out Halley's Comet
0:06:26 > 0:06:29but maths isn't my strong point backwards.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32But that wouldn't help, because would it be any of the three?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Dragons, maybe...
0:06:39 > 0:06:42More Eastern Europe and east.
0:06:42 > 0:06:46Chariots, the Romans I suppose would've been in there earlier
0:06:46 > 0:06:49and they would've known what chariots were.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51But would Halley's Comet stay there?
0:06:51 > 0:06:54I think, I will probably regret this,
0:06:54 > 0:06:58I will have to go with two moons...that's my answer.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Two moons is your answer.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03I would have said that as a guess, but it's wrong.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05Fiery dragons.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08Was that a comet then, Eggs?
0:07:08 > 0:07:10I don't think it was Halley's Comet. It could have been something
0:07:10 > 0:07:14like a meteor shower that was particularly bright.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Of course, people see what they want to see and they interpret it
0:07:17 > 0:07:21as an omen because what comes to mind is a flying dragon.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24CJ your last question in multiple choice.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27If you get it right, you've beaten Pete.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31What name is given to the ancient man-made island dwellings
0:07:31 > 0:07:35found on Scottish lochs and inland waters?
0:07:41 > 0:07:42I've never heard of brocks.
0:07:42 > 0:07:48I thought crannogs were dwellings but that could be wrong as well.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52Cairns? What are cairns?
0:07:52 > 0:07:54My instinct was crannogs, so I'm going with cairns.
0:07:54 > 0:07:59Your instinct was crannogs so you've gone with cairns?
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- Yes, my instincts are always wrong. - They're always wrong?- Yes.
0:08:02 > 0:08:07They weren't this time, crannogs was the correct answer.
0:08:07 > 0:08:12After three questions it's one point each. We now go to sudden death.
0:08:12 > 0:08:17Pete, your first question, these aren't multiple choice.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19The peasants' revolt took place
0:08:19 > 0:08:22under the reign of which young English King?
0:08:22 > 0:08:28"The peasants are revolting." I can't think of his name...
0:08:28 > 0:08:30There's a question.
0:08:30 > 0:08:37This is probably me goodbye, I'm going to say...
0:08:37 > 0:08:38or am I?
0:08:40 > 0:08:43No idea why, I've plucked out of the ether,
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Edward II, if we even had one of them.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50It was Richard II.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Sorry.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57The next question for you, CJ, the Battle of Totem
0:08:57 > 0:09:01of 1461 was the largest and bloodiest of which conflict?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04I knew all that because
0:09:04 > 0:09:08various estimates given between 15,000 and 32,000 people killed.
0:09:08 > 0:09:13Now, I think it's that but I'm just going to think about this.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19OK, I'm just going to go for the Wars of the Roses.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24You're right. The Wars of the Roses.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27Pete, I'm afraid you're out of the final round.
0:09:27 > 0:09:32Please both of you come back and rejoin your teams.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37So the challengers have lost one brain from the final round.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39The Eggheads have lost no brains.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40Next subject Arts & Books.
0:09:40 > 0:09:45- Which of you wants to play that round?- It's got to be Sarah.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48- It's got to be me. - Sarah for Arts and Books.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Arts & Books specialist. This will be even longer.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Sarah, the social worker, against which Egghead?
0:09:52 > 0:09:55I'm drawn to Chris.
0:09:55 > 0:09:59- Everyone's drawn to Chris in this round.- Are they?
0:09:59 > 0:10:04So Sarah from the Carebears against Chris from the Eggheads, please take your position in the question room.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08So I'll ask each of you three questions on Arts & Books in turn.
0:10:08 > 0:10:13- Sarah, they're multiple choice, do you want the first or second set? - I'll go first, please.
0:10:15 > 0:10:21What does an actor do when he or she improvises to fill up time?
0:10:24 > 0:10:27I think corpse and dry mean pretty much the same thing,
0:10:27 > 0:10:29so I'm going to go for ad-lib.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31That's right, well done.
0:10:31 > 0:10:36Chris, what term is often applied to prominent Western European painters
0:10:36 > 0:10:39who worked between 1400 and 1900?
0:10:44 > 0:10:46They'd be old masters.
0:10:46 > 0:10:51They do indeed be old masters, well done. One all, back to you Sarah.
0:10:51 > 0:10:56The author Simon Scarrow is best known for his work in which genre?
0:11:00 > 0:11:03I've never heard of him so it's going to have
0:11:03 > 0:11:06to be a guess. Simon Scarrow...
0:11:10 > 0:11:12I'm drawn to historical fiction, I think I'll plump for that.
0:11:12 > 0:11:17Nice one, you're right. The ability to guess correctly
0:11:17 > 0:11:19is very important in this game.
0:11:19 > 0:11:24Chris, for what does the letter G stand
0:11:24 > 0:11:26in the name of the author, GK Chesterton?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32He's Gilbert Keith Chesterton, so it's Gilbert.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34You're right too, well done. 2-all.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Sprinting along here.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40Sarah, which decorative arts technique using enamel paste takes
0:11:40 > 0:11:44its name from a French word meaning compartments or partitions?
0:11:50 > 0:11:54The only one of those I recognise is Cloisonne.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56And that kind of rings a bell. I think maybe they use it
0:11:56 > 0:12:00in those Faberge egg-type designs, so I'm going for that.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05You social workers are playing well. You're quite right.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11This is one sharp team, the Carebears.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14The cuddly title is completely misleading.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18Chris, if you don't get this right you're gone.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22Who wrote the 2008 novel The Enchantress Of Florence?
0:12:28 > 0:12:32I don't think Salman Rushdie has got anything out at the moment.
0:12:35 > 0:12:39It's some time since Captain Corelli's Mandolin,
0:12:39 > 0:12:42he's had time to write another novel and he does tend to set his stuff
0:12:42 > 0:12:46sort of south Europe, so I'll say Louis de Bernieres.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50Louis de Bernieres is the wrong answer.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52It's Salman Rushdie.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56- You knew that, Judith, I could see you nodding?- Yes.- Have you read it?
0:12:56 > 0:12:57No, I was wondering whether to.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00Well done, Sarah. Brilliant play.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03You took on the Egghead, Chris, and you won.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05So Chris doesn't play in the final round and you do.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Great stuff, Challengers.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Do please come back and rejoin us in the studio.
0:13:11 > 0:13:16The Challengers and the Eggheads have each lost one brain from the final round.
0:13:16 > 0:13:21- Our next subject is Sport. Have you got a plan on Sport?- Oh, yes.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25- Myself on Sport.- Steve on Sport. Who looks vulnerable?
0:13:25 > 0:13:28I'm not going to fall for the trap of going for Daphne,
0:13:28 > 0:13:30so it's going to have to be Judith.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34So it's Steve from the Carebears against Judith from the Eggheads.
0:13:34 > 0:13:39To ensure there's no conferring please take your position in the question room.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44I said the word "Sport" and it was you straight away?
0:13:44 > 0:13:48I think I was nominated, on some sports I'm quite good at.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52There's one or two others I'm weak on, but hopefully they won't come up.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54You've chosen Judith, her knees are knocking.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Do you want the first or second set of questions?
0:13:57 > 0:13:59I'll take the first, please.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05Steve, in which sport are you most likely
0:14:05 > 0:14:09to incur a ban for excessive use of the whip?
0:14:12 > 0:14:14I think you've seen a few things in the boxing ring
0:14:14 > 0:14:16but not anyone using a whip.
0:14:18 > 0:14:23Again, I'm a big horse racing fan, so I think luckily that's come up.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25It's horse racing.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27Yes, it is horse racing. Correct.
0:14:27 > 0:14:28Judith, your question.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Which cricketer announced his retirement
0:14:31 > 0:14:34from the England team in March 2008?
0:14:39 > 0:14:43I don't think it's Michael Vaughan. I think he's still going strong,
0:14:43 > 0:14:47and Andrew Flintoff, so I suppose it's Marcus Trescothick.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Good stuff, Judith. Well done, first point to you.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Do you feel good about that?
0:14:52 > 0:14:57- I do, I feel very good.- Steve, which offence is signalled in rugby league
0:14:57 > 0:15:02by the referee raising his arm to indicate a penalty and tapping his mouth with the other hand?
0:15:07 > 0:15:11I would've thought with tapping the mouth it would probably be dissent.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14Something they probably should use in football as well.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17I wouldn't have thought it was offside.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20I wouldn't have thought it was obstruction, so I'll go be dissent.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24Good logic and you're quite right. It is dissent. Well done.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27You're ahead. So, Judith, you need this to keep up.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31Which snooker player became the first number one when the world
0:15:31 > 0:15:34rankings were introduced in 1976?
0:15:40 > 0:15:44I don't know why but Dennis Taylor is twanging something in my mind.
0:15:44 > 0:15:49- Dennis Taylor. - What was he twanging exactly?
0:15:49 > 0:15:51I hope a memory.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53It's Ray Reardon, Judith.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Oh, no. That was the one I thought definitely wasn't.
0:15:56 > 0:16:01Wrong kind of twang. So this for the round.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04To put your team ahead of the Eggheads, Steve.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07What is the nickname
0:16:07 > 0:16:10of Scottish former darts world champion Les Wallace?
0:16:15 > 0:16:19I'm afraid I am not a darts fan,
0:16:19 > 0:16:23but with the surname Wallace, probably Bravedart?
0:16:25 > 0:16:28- Eggheads, do you know this one? - Yes, in the usual
0:16:28 > 0:16:32creative way that they have with nicknames it's McDanger.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35It is McDanger. You're wrong, Steve.
0:16:35 > 0:16:40If you were just guessing with no knowledge, as I would have been, I would have said Bravedart.
0:16:40 > 0:16:45Judith, the footballer Michael Essien represents which country
0:16:45 > 0:16:47in international football?
0:16:51 > 0:16:54Essien...
0:16:56 > 0:17:01I'm just trying to think whether it's Nigerian, Moroccan or Ghanaian.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06Essien. I think it might be Moroccan, I don't know why.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Try Morocco.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13- You're obviously not a Chelsea fan? - No.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15The team he plays for. It's Ghana.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19- Oh, is it?- Michael Essien, Chelsea player, represents Ghana.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22So that means at the end of our multiple choice question
0:17:22 > 0:17:27Steve, you've got more points. Well done, you will join your team in the final round.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31Both of you come back here and rejoin your team-mates.
0:17:31 > 0:17:35So as it stands the challengers have lost one brain from the final round,
0:17:35 > 0:17:37while the Eggheads have lost two.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39The last subject is Music.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42Which challenger wants Music?
0:17:42 > 0:17:44We can't have Pete or Sarah or Steve.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45I think Jenny.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49- Jenny on Music?- Yes, I'll try.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51OK, who do you want to go against, Jenny.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55- What do you think, guys?- No Chris, CJ or Judith.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57It's tricky. It is.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59I think you should choose Kevin.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03- I like the colour of his shirt. - Really nice shirt.
0:18:03 > 0:18:09Kevin can stumble. It happened, I think, a few years ago!
0:18:09 > 0:18:16Good luck. Jenny from our Carebears against Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:18:16 > 0:18:21To ensure there's no conferring, please go to the question rooms now.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23- Good luck, Jenny. - Thank you.- Are you feeling OK?
0:18:23 > 0:18:26- Your team's doing well. - They're doing brilliantly.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30Three multiple choice questions, Jenny, you can choose first or second set.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32I'd like to go first please, Jeremy.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38Jenny, what name is given to the area of a theatre
0:18:38 > 0:18:41where the orchestra is located?
0:18:45 > 0:18:50Classical music, not being my forte.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54This is going to be -
0:18:54 > 0:18:57it has to be - pit.
0:18:57 > 0:19:01Good for you, you've got it right. The orchestra pit.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06Kevin, the Yorkshireman John Barry is particularly well known
0:19:06 > 0:19:09for composing what kind of music?
0:19:11 > 0:19:15One of my favourites actually, I've got quite a few of his collections.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Film scores.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21Yes, John Barry was film scores. Back to you, Jenny.
0:19:21 > 0:19:28Which band had a 1979 UK hit single with the song My Sharona?
0:19:37 > 0:19:41Again this has to be...
0:19:43 > 0:19:46..a random guess.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50I am going to go...
0:19:53 > 0:19:54..for...
0:19:56 > 0:19:58I'm going to go The Art.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03Let's see if your fellow Carebears know?
0:20:03 > 0:20:05- Who was it?- It's The Knack.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Yeah, The Knack. They only really had that one record, didn't they?
0:20:08 > 0:20:13- Not that I'm old enough to... - I remember it!
0:20:15 > 0:20:20It was The Knack, My Sharona. Kevin, which British classical singer was
0:20:20 > 0:20:24discovered while singing arias to his colleagues on the factory floor
0:20:24 > 0:20:26when he was a trainee mechanic?
0:20:32 > 0:20:33I don't think...
0:20:33 > 0:20:36Bryn Terfel is a classically trained singer in that sense.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40Paul Potts I think worked in some kind of office environment,
0:20:40 > 0:20:44or something to do with computer sales, or telesales.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46But I think I associate
0:20:46 > 0:20:50a manual occupation with Alfie Boe. So Alfie Boe.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54..is the correct answer, Kevin, well done.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Jenny, you need this to stay in the game.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01A bronze statue of which British composer was unveiled
0:21:01 > 0:21:06in his birthplace of Cheltenham in April 2008?
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Again...mmm
0:21:15 > 0:21:21I will have to go...
0:21:21 > 0:21:22for a guess.
0:21:24 > 0:21:25Sorry, guys.
0:21:25 > 0:21:29I'm going to go for Ralph Vaughan Williams.
0:21:31 > 0:21:35You have been unlucky with your guessing. That was the wrong answer.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38It's Gustav Holst, Eggheads. He's British was he?
0:21:38 > 0:21:40I was in the Gustav Holst museum
0:21:40 > 0:21:43less than a couple of weeks ago, in Cheltenham.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47Kevin, you take the round. There's no way back for Jenny
0:21:47 > 0:21:48from this position.
0:21:48 > 0:21:52Sorry, Jenny ,you can't be in the final round. Kevin will be.
0:21:52 > 0:21:53You were beaten by our Egghead.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Do please rejoin your team-mates.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Bad luck Jenny, it's tough against this lot.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03To make it worse CJ is gonna give us his fact on Holst.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07One of the few trivial things I know about Holst was when he was
0:22:07 > 0:22:10already established in the 1920s he was doing a tour of the country
0:22:10 > 0:22:12conducting different orchestras.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16He went to a girls school and one of the violinists in the girls school
0:22:16 > 0:22:19was Celia Johnson, who went on to star in Brief Encounter.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21This is what we've been playing towards,
0:22:21 > 0:22:24not the fact that CJ just gave us but the final round.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27Final round time, which as always is General Knowledge.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Those who lost your head-to-heads won't take part in this round,
0:22:30 > 0:22:34so that's Jenny and Pete from the Carebears,
0:22:34 > 0:22:36and Judith and Chris from the Eggheads.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38Please can you leave the studio.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42So here we all are, Steve, Sarah and Rick
0:22:42 > 0:22:45you're playing to win the Carebears £11,000.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49Kevin, CJ and Daphne, you're playing for something
0:22:49 > 0:22:52which money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.
0:22:52 > 0:22:57I will ask each team three questions in turn. This time the questions are
0:22:57 > 0:22:59all General Knowledge and you are allowed to confer.
0:22:59 > 0:23:05Carebears, are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three?
0:23:05 > 0:23:08Steve, Sarah and Rick, would you like the first
0:23:08 > 0:23:10or second set of questions?
0:23:10 > 0:23:11- Good luck, by the way.- Thank you.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14I think we'll carry on going first.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Here we go with the final round. Your first question:
0:23:19 > 0:23:23At which UK airport did Terminal 5 open in 2008?
0:23:26 > 0:23:28- Is this the one where all the delays...- Yeah.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31It's been in the news a lot recently.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34- Heathrow, wasn't it?- Heathrow?
0:23:34 > 0:23:38It was Heathrow Terminal 5. Well done.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44Eggheads, what is usually missing on true Manx cats?
0:23:48 > 0:23:50That's the tail, Jeremy.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53The tail is missing on a true Manx cat. Yeah.
0:23:55 > 0:23:56Your question, Carebears.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Who was appointed to the newly created position
0:23:59 > 0:24:03of Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families, in 2007?
0:24:08 > 0:24:10We should know this, shouldn't we?
0:24:10 > 0:24:12We should know this in the job we do.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16- Is this your area?- We work in children, families and schools,
0:24:16 > 0:24:17so...
0:24:17 > 0:24:19It's not Ed Balls, is it?
0:24:19 > 0:24:21Because he's something else.
0:24:21 > 0:24:26I haven't heard of John Denham but I've heard of the other two.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29I've never heard anything about the Minister for Children...
0:24:29 > 0:24:35Schools and whatever it was. That's my instinct, to go for John Denham.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38I think so.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42I think this is going to be a major embarrassment if we get it wrong,
0:24:42 > 0:24:45in the job we do...
0:24:45 > 0:24:50but I think we're agreed on... We'll try John Denham.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54OK, the despair behind you on the screen here!
0:24:54 > 0:24:55It's not right. It's Ed Balls.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Oh, dear.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01Is he responsible for social workers or not?
0:25:01 > 0:25:02He is, isn't he?
0:25:02 > 0:25:05- Kind of.- He would do, yes. - Don't have much to do with...
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Maybe he's not doing enough work.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11- Perhaps he should come and visit. - It must be his fault, not yours.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16Oh, dear, that could be very expensive for you. Let's see.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20Eggheads, members of which tribal group were granted permission
0:25:20 > 0:25:25to run without numbers in the 2008 London Marathon?
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Members of which tribal group were granted permission
0:25:33 > 0:25:37to run without numbers in the 2008 London Marathon?
0:25:38 > 0:25:43It's the lovely Masai and they ran in flip-flops didn't they?
0:25:43 > 0:25:45Yes, it was great.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47- Is that your answer, Masai? - Yes.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49It's right. Well done. If you get this question
0:25:49 > 0:25:53wrong, Carebears, then the contest will be over.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57The first astronaut from which country
0:25:57 > 0:26:00made her journey into space in April 2008?
0:26:06 > 0:26:10Anyone got any ideas on astronauts?
0:26:10 > 0:26:13There was definitely... At some point this year
0:26:13 > 0:26:17there's definitely been the first South Korean in space.
0:26:17 > 0:26:18Let's go for that then.
0:26:18 > 0:26:23But I don't know whether it was a woman, a man or what.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27I wouldn't know about the other countries either. So...
0:26:30 > 0:26:35That's the only way we're going to get to an answer.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38That's the biggest hints we've got towards an answer.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41- We should go with that. - Well, we'll go for South Korea.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44- You're right.- Phew!
0:26:44 > 0:26:47You're right. Great answer.
0:26:47 > 0:26:50Well done, Rick. The South Korean connection was in your mind?
0:26:50 > 0:26:55Yes, I... Something in there, I'd heard South Korea
0:26:55 > 0:26:57had their first astronaut in space.
0:26:58 > 0:27:02OK. Eggheads, let's see if you can get this.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06If you do get it, the contest is yours,
0:27:06 > 0:27:13the money rolls over, our Carebears become a little bit care worn.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15What was a gallowglass in ancient Ireland?
0:27:15 > 0:27:19It was a mercenary. Foot soldier.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24It's a foot soldier.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26What was a gallowglass in ancient Ireland?
0:27:30 > 0:27:34You know with that last remark you made us sound really...
0:27:34 > 0:27:39you know... But unfortunately, we know it's a foot soldier.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41So you mean, if you got this right
0:27:41 > 0:27:44- you'll feel bad that they get nothing?- Yes.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47You have got it right and they do get nothing.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Congratulations, Eggheads, you've won.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59Gallowglass, guys, would you have got that? Foot soldier?
0:27:59 > 0:28:01No. It would have been a guess.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04Some hard questions today and you played really well.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Commiserations to our Carebears. The Eggheads have
0:28:06 > 0:28:10done what comes naturally to them. Their winning streak continues.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13Daphne even claiming to feel guilty today.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15I'm not claiming - it's true!
0:28:15 > 0:28:19Well, just to rub it in, they won't be going home with their £11,000,
0:28:19 > 0:28:22so that money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:26 > 0:28:27A very strong performance today.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31Join us next time to see if the new challengers have the brains
0:28:31 > 0:28:34to defeat the Eggheads. £12,000 says they don't.
0:28:34 > 0:28:35Until then, goodbye.
