0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:15Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19The question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads - the show 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 > 0:00:37You might recognise them as they are Goliaths in the world of TV quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39And taking on the might of our quiz Goliaths,
0:00:39 > 0:00:43are the Deeping Airheads.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46They are members of Deepings Tennis Club in Lincolnshire.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50They've won numerous pub quizzes between them, including the coveted Deeping pub quiz.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52So let's meet them.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56Hi, I'm Kate, I'm 60 and I'm a retired IT analyst.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59Hello, I'm Faith and I'm 57 and I'm a registrar.
0:00:59 > 0:01:04Hello, I'm Alan, I'm 54 and I'm a construction site manager.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Hello, my name's Adrian. I'm 61 and I'm an accountant.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12Hello, my name is Terry. I'm 49 and I'm a rotor winder connector.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14Welcome Deeping Airheads.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Welcome to you, Kate.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20- Hello.- You quiz together? - Yes, quite frequently.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23And Deeping is a place, that's right?
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Yes, it is a small town in South Lincolnshire.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29- But it's also a tennis club, Alan? - Yes, we have a thriving tennis club
0:01:29 > 0:01:33and we are all either current members or former members of the club.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35You all hang out around Deeping?
0:01:35 > 0:01:40- You could say that.- And have a deep knowledge of quiz matters?
0:01:40 > 0:01:42- Please say yes to that.- Yes.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44- Of course.- OK, phew!
0:01:44 > 0:01:49Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:49 > 0:01:54However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58The Eggheads have won the last five games,
0:01:58 > 0:02:03which means £6,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:03 > 0:02:08The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of geography.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Which of you wants this?
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Faith said geography.
0:02:12 > 0:02:16- Go for it.- It is me, apparently.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20- Faith, registrar, civil funeral celebrant?- That's right.
0:02:20 > 0:02:21Let's see if you can bury this lot.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25- I will do my best. - Who do you want to face?
0:02:25 > 0:02:29Geography, well they all look as if they know their way around.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31- You'd be surprised.- Go for Judith.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32Judith it is.
0:02:32 > 0:02:37Good stuff, OK. Faith from Deeping Airheads versus Judith from the Eggheads
0:02:37 > 0:02:42and to ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the Question Room.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45So Faith, I am going to ask you three multiple choice questions.
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- You can choose the first or second set.- I'll go first, please.
0:02:52 > 0:02:57Faith, New Brunswick is situated on the eastern coast of which country?
0:03:02 > 0:03:04I think I know this.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07New Brunswick...
0:03:07 > 0:03:09I'm not absolutely sure.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13I think it is something to do with Scottish immigrants,
0:03:13 > 0:03:15although they have been probably been to other two countries as well.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18But I think it is Canada.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22And you are right. Well done. First point to the Deepings.
0:03:23 > 0:03:28Judith, Latvia has a coastline on which sea?
0:03:32 > 0:03:35I think it is the dreaded Baltic.
0:03:35 > 0:03:39I get so muddled up with all those Baltic countries.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42I always get their capitals in the wrong place.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44But I think it is the Baltic.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45The dreaded Baltic is right. Well done.
0:03:45 > 0:03:50- That is the official name - the dreaded Baltic Sea.- Yes!
0:03:50 > 0:03:56Faith, in which European city would you find the cathedral of St Salvator?
0:04:01 > 0:04:03It doesn't sound very French.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09I don't know the answer to this one.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11I think probably not Madrid.
0:04:11 > 0:04:15So that leaves me with Paris or Bruges.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19I haven't heard of it in Paris.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21So I'm going to go for Bruges.
0:04:21 > 0:04:25Good logic, you're there, well done. Bruges is correct.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- Oh, Judith, I can see you worrying there.- I am.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33In your floral top.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36In which ocean are the Society Islands located?
0:04:39 > 0:04:43There is a saying, "When in doubt about islands,
0:04:43 > 0:04:44"locate them in the Pacific."
0:04:44 > 0:04:47The Society Islands, did you say?
0:04:47 > 0:04:50The Society Islands, where are they?
0:04:51 > 0:04:54I think they are in the Pacific.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58This saying that we have never heard. Is that a quizzers' saying?
0:04:58 > 0:05:00I have heard somebody say it and when in doubt,
0:05:00 > 0:05:04when confronted with an animal, when in doubt say it's an antelope.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08OK, what is your answer?
0:05:08 > 0:05:10- Pacific.- And it is right, well done.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14- There you are. It works.- It does work. Well done.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17We are wise to that now, though.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21Back to you, Faith. St George's is the capital of which island in the West Indies?
0:05:29 > 0:05:31St George's...
0:05:36 > 0:05:40I can't say I'm very sure about this one.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47I seem to... I have a feeling it is Grenada,
0:05:47 > 0:05:49but why I am not really sure.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52But I am going to go for Grenada.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56It is correct, Faith, good play.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Going with your instincts there.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02Judith, if you get this wrong you are not in the final round.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04- Are you ready?- I am ready.
0:06:04 > 0:06:08The Black Hills are a range of mountains in South Dakota and which other US state?
0:06:13 > 0:06:16This is having to know what's next door, isn't it?
0:06:16 > 0:06:19To South Dakota, did you say?
0:06:19 > 0:06:22South Dakota and which other state?
0:06:22 > 0:06:24I'm trying to visualise the map.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31I think it is Montana.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34I would have guessed that as well,
0:06:34 > 0:06:37because they are both there up at the top of the map.
0:06:37 > 0:06:38But it is Wyoming.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41- Oh how annoying.- So you are wrong.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44So that means you won't be joining us in the final round, Judith.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Faith, you will. Congratulations, challengers -
0:06:47 > 0:06:50first blood to you. Please come and rejoin us here in the studio.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Challengers, you are doing well.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57You have lost nobody. The Eggheads have lost one brain
0:06:57 > 0:06:59and that is the precious brain of Judith.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02Our next subject is sport.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Which of you wants this?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09This is the subject we were all dreading.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13Although we are all tennis players, none of us wanted to do it.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16- Did you say you were going to do that, Kate?- I will give it a crack.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Yes, OK.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21- Kate?- Me, yes.- Brave.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24Who do you want to go against?
0:07:24 > 0:07:27Who is the non-sports person?
0:07:27 > 0:07:30- You can't take Judith. - Unless you want to try Barry...
0:07:30 > 0:07:33- just to find out.- We will try Barry.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Try Barry just to find out?
0:07:35 > 0:07:37That is a good strategy, other people will benefit
0:07:37 > 0:07:41if he is very good. I suspect he is. But anyway good luck to you, Kate.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Kate from Deeping Airheads versus our new Egghead Barry.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49To ensure there is no conferring, please take your positions.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Good luck to you both.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Three questions - multiple choice questions in turn.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Kate, first or second set?
0:07:56 > 0:07:58First please.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Kate, excluding the reds and the cue ball,
0:08:04 > 0:08:10how many coloured balls are there on the table at the start of a frame of snooker?
0:08:14 > 0:08:19By a process of elimination I am sure it is not eight or ten.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21So I will go for six.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26Six is correct. Well done.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30You can get confused counting them in your mind.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32You certainly can.
0:08:32 > 0:08:38Barry, SW19 is the postcode for which famous London sporting venue?
0:08:43 > 0:08:47Wembley Stadium is up in the north west.
0:08:47 > 0:08:53Crystal Palace isn't in SW19, but the All England Club, or Wimbledon,
0:08:53 > 0:08:57is in SW19, so the answer is The All England Club.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00You're right, Barry, well done.
0:09:00 > 0:09:07Kate, which footballer was voted the 2008 PFA Player of the Year?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17I am not absolutely sure,
0:09:17 > 0:09:22but...because Ronaldo is...
0:09:22 > 0:09:27generally thought to be such a great player I will go for Ronaldo.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30It is a very good guess and a very good way to work it out.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32You are quite right. Well done, Kate.
0:09:36 > 0:09:42Barry, the Calcutta Night Riders and the Delhi Daredevils are teams in which sport?
0:09:45 > 0:09:49Calcutta and Delhi don't sound as if they were playing
0:09:49 > 0:09:53rugby league, which is a sport from where I come from.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56They may be hockey, but I'm reasonably certain they would
0:09:56 > 0:09:58be cricket teams. The answer is cricket.
0:09:58 > 0:10:03The answer is cricket, Barry. Well done. Two apiece.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Kate, if you get this, you put the pressure on him.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10How old was Fred Davis when he reached the semi-finals
0:10:10 > 0:10:14of snooker's Embassy World Championships in 1978.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23I'm not sure again.
0:10:23 > 0:10:27I think he was older than 54.
0:10:27 > 0:10:31And 84, I think it just a wee bit too old.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34I will go for 64.
0:10:34 > 0:10:35You're right again.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Brilliant use of deduction here.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44You are a retired IT analyst, Kate?
0:10:44 > 0:10:46- That's true, yes.- It's showing.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Barry, if you get this wrong, you are not in the final. Here we go.
0:10:51 > 0:10:59Which demonstration sport made an appearance at the 1908 London Olympics?
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Gosh, I know I'm getting on in years,
0:11:08 > 0:11:11but 1908 is even a bit far back for me.
0:11:11 > 0:11:17I can't imagine how anybody could play mounted rugby.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20And water tennis sounds too improbable to be true.
0:11:20 > 0:11:25But bicycle polo sounds just about feasible, so I will go for that.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27They all look incredible to me,
0:11:27 > 0:11:33but you are right, it was bicycle polo in 1908.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36So scores level after three.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39Equal top scores and we go to Sudden Death.
0:11:39 > 0:11:44Kate, your question first and remember no multiple choice here.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Kate, here is your first question.
0:11:46 > 0:11:53The Soviet sportsman Boris Onischenko, famously denounced as a cheat by Jim Fox,
0:11:53 > 0:11:59competed in which multi-event sport at the 1976 Olympics?
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Well I can't...
0:12:07 > 0:12:11..I will go for triathlon, but I'm sure it is not.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14The answer is modern pentathlon.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17It was the fencing.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21I had a fencing memory, but that wouldn't be the answer, because it was part of the pentathlon.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25He was wired to register hits when no hits were actually made.
0:12:25 > 0:12:29Pretty much the most spectacular example of cheating we have seen
0:12:29 > 0:12:33in the Olympics, short of any drugs stuff.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37So, Barry, your chance to take the round.
0:12:37 > 0:12:42Which female US Olympic athlete, nicknamed the Black Gazelle by the press,
0:12:42 > 0:12:48was a triple gold medal winner in the 1960 Games,
0:12:48 > 0:12:51despite having worn a leg brace as a child?
0:12:51 > 0:12:56The only US female athlete I know that suffered from polio in her youth
0:12:56 > 0:13:00was Wilma Rudolph. I wasn't aware she was called the female gazelle,
0:13:00 > 0:13:01but my answer is Wilma Rudolph.
0:13:01 > 0:13:06Known as the Black Gazelle, but you got it right. Wilma Rudolph is the answer.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Well done. A tough round for you both
0:13:08 > 0:13:13and the Eggheads have just got it by a hair's breadth.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Kate, you won't be playing in the final round.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Please both come back to the studio.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22The challengers and the Eggheads have lost one brain each
0:13:22 > 0:13:26from the final round. Next subject is Film & Television.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Which of you wants this?
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Not Alan.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38I think that... Alan we are saving for the final round. Because he is quite clever.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Why?
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Terry says he doesn't know anything about films and television.
0:13:43 > 0:13:49I don't know much about television, because I don't watch any of the soaps. Or the reality programmes.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51So I will have a go.
0:13:51 > 0:13:52Against whom?
0:13:52 > 0:13:55I think it it's all right with the rest of team,
0:13:55 > 0:13:59I will take on my favourite Egghead, which is the man with the haircut.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01CJ, you're somebody's favourite.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05- I always knew there was somebody out there.- Breaking news, everyone.
0:14:05 > 0:14:10It is Adrian from Deeping Airheads, against CJ from the Eggheads with the haircut.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12To ensure there is no conferring,
0:14:12 > 0:14:16please take your positions in the Question Room.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Good luck with this. Film & Television.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21Three multiple choice questions. First or second set?
0:14:21 > 0:14:27Well, the team tactics right at the beginning were to go first, so I will continue with that.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32Good luck to you both.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Adrian, "Super, smashing, great,"
0:14:34 > 0:14:38is a well-known catchphrase from which UK game show?
0:14:43 > 0:14:46I have never heard Anne Robinson say
0:14:46 > 0:14:49anything like that and I don't suppose she would.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53I don't think it's Blankety Blank.
0:14:53 > 0:14:59But I have got a funny feeling that, what was his name, Mr Bowen,
0:14:59 > 0:15:01would have said it on Bullseye. So I will go for Bullseye.
0:15:01 > 0:15:05It is Jim Bowen, yes, he did say that. Bullseye. Well done.
0:15:07 > 0:15:11CJ, which film starring Michael Caine ends with the line,
0:15:11 > 0:15:15"Hang on a minute, lads, I've got a great idea"?
0:15:22 > 0:15:25You will be amazed to learn I've never seen any of those films,
0:15:25 > 0:15:28but in this case it is The Italian Job.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31In this case you are right. Have you not seen The Italian Job?
0:15:31 > 0:15:33I don't watch films, you know that.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37I know, but it is a great movie and such a British film as well.
0:15:37 > 0:15:38Do you drive a mini, CJ?
0:15:38 > 0:15:43- Certainly not.- OK, forget it.
0:15:43 > 0:15:47Adrian, which Hollywood actor was sentenced to three years imprisonment
0:15:47 > 0:15:51for tax evasion in April 2008.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Pass.
0:15:59 > 0:16:05I don't remember hearing about it, or reading about it, but...
0:16:07 > 0:16:10The Egghead idea is that when
0:16:10 > 0:16:13you really don't know you go down the middle.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16So I will have a guess at Jamie Foxx.
0:16:16 > 0:16:21OK and you are an accountant, but you don't follow tax evasion stories
0:16:21 > 0:16:24in other jurisdictions?
0:16:24 > 0:16:27Not in my spare time, no.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29The answer is Wesley Snipes.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32Sorry to say.
0:16:32 > 0:16:39CJ, your question. Who plays Dr Bruce Banner in the 2008 film The Incredible Hulk?
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Eric Bana played it in The Hulk,
0:16:47 > 0:16:51the Ang Lee version, but this time it is Edward Norton.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53You are right.
0:16:53 > 0:16:54OK, you need this answer now, Adrian,
0:16:54 > 0:17:00or I'm afraid CJ will have taken the round.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02What is the name of Martin Sheen's character
0:17:02 > 0:17:04in the film Apocalypse Now?
0:17:11 > 0:17:18I'm afraid I have never seen the film so I will have to make another guess
0:17:18 > 0:17:21and I will have a guess at Lieutenant Colby.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Lieutenant Colby is wrong.
0:17:26 > 0:17:32It's Captain Willard - Martin Sheen's character in Apocalypse Now.
0:17:32 > 0:17:37Which means, CJ, you have taken the round.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39You will be in the final.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42Adrian, I'm sorry. We won't be seeing you in the final.
0:17:42 > 0:17:48Please come back and rejoin your teams.
0:17:48 > 0:17:53The challengers have lost two brains from the final round. Eggheads have lost one brain.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55The last subject is Music.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Is that the one you wanted?
0:17:57 > 0:18:01- That is the one I wanted, yeah. - Which of you wants this?
0:18:01 > 0:18:03I will have a go, leave you there.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07You feel better at music, Alan?
0:18:07 > 0:18:09I'm no great shakes at it.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12I will go for it. I would go for it.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15- I would go for Chris.- OK?
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Yes.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Looks like I'm playing this -
0:18:19 > 0:18:21with a bit of trepidation.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Against which Egghead?
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Chris, I think.
0:18:25 > 0:18:31Terry, from Deeping Airheads against Chris from the Eggheads.
0:18:31 > 0:18:35To ensure there is no conferring, please take your positions now.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Terry, you were on Mastermind recently?
0:18:37 > 0:18:40I was, yes.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44- Subject? - Real ale breweries. Something decent.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46Wouldn't it be amazing if a question on that came up?
0:18:46 > 0:18:49If it comes us up in music I will be well chuffed.
0:18:49 > 0:18:56It does seem unlikely. Three questions, multiple choice. You can choose the first or second set.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58We will carry on with first, I think.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Terry, which band formed in the wake of the demise of Joy Division?
0:19:12 > 0:19:14I'm not rightly sure,
0:19:14 > 0:19:19it is not really my sort of music, I'm a bit heavier rock as a rule.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22I'm going to go for New Order.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24But I don't know why.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28New Order is correct, well done.
0:19:31 > 0:19:39Chris, what was the title of the 1982 UK top ten hit single for Joan Jett and the Blackhearts?
0:19:46 > 0:19:48That was I Love Rock 'n' Roll.
0:19:48 > 0:19:52- Give us the next line.- Stick another dime in the jukebox, baby!
0:19:52 > 0:19:56I know you wanted to. You're right.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00One each. Back to you, Terry,
0:20:00 > 0:20:02the rotor winder connector.
0:20:02 > 0:20:09Which instrument is young classical musician Nicola Benedetti most associated?
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Again it is not very rocky this, is it?
0:20:21 > 0:20:22I'm going to go violin.
0:20:24 > 0:20:25Faith, do you think he is right?
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- I think he is right.- He is right. Well done. Two points to you.
0:20:30 > 0:20:38OK, Chris, in 1995 what was the title of the first UK number one single for Oasis?
0:20:45 > 0:20:48It is not Wonderwall, because that came later.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54I have never heard Some Might Say,
0:20:54 > 0:20:56so not being a fan of the Gallagher brothers
0:20:56 > 0:20:58I will have to say Roll With It.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Which is wrong. Actually it is Some Might Say.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Bad luck on that.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09Terry, get this right, you have taken the round and knocked Chris out.
0:21:09 > 0:21:15The Coronation Of Poppea was the last completed opera of which composer?
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Can you spell Poppea?
0:21:26 > 0:21:28P-O-P-P-E-A.
0:21:31 > 0:21:36I don't think it is Purcell. I'm going to go with Scarlatti.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41Scarlatti is wrong. It was Monteverdi, in fact.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45A chance for Chris to level things up.
0:21:45 > 0:21:50If you get this wrong, Chris, you won't be in the final round.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54Which member of Girls Aloud
0:21:54 > 0:22:01featured on Will.I.Am's 2008 UK top ten hit single Heartbreaker?
0:22:06 > 0:22:09There's been a running joke about me and girl bands
0:22:09 > 0:22:13for the last four years. I know not the first thing about them,
0:22:13 > 0:22:15except they are exclusively female.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18However, the name Sara Harding is saying something
0:22:18 > 0:22:19at the back of my mind.
0:22:19 > 0:22:24So for want of anything better to say, I will say Sarah Harding.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27- Usually you are the best guesser. - Hm.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30- Today it is not happening.- No. - It is Cheryl Cole.
0:22:30 > 0:22:34Chris, you're not in the final round, because your challenger,
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Terry, has more points in this round.
0:22:37 > 0:22:42You took on one of the Eggheads, Terry. Well done - you emerged triumphant.
0:22:42 > 0:22:46Great news for the challengers. Please come back and rejoin us.
0:22:46 > 0:22:50This is what we have been playing towards. Our final round - General Knowledge.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53I am afraid those of you who lost your head to heads
0:22:53 > 0:22:56will not be joining us in the final round.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59So, Kate and Adrian, from the Deeping Airheads
0:22:59 > 0:23:05and Chris and Judith from the Eggheads, please leave the studio.
0:23:05 > 0:23:10Well, Faith, Alan and Terry you are playing to win the Deeping Airheads,
0:23:10 > 0:23:12what is it - £6,000?
0:23:12 > 0:23:18CJ, Daphne and Barry you are playing for something that money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21I will ask the teams three questions in turn.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24The questions are all general knowledge.
0:23:24 > 0:23:25You are allowed to confer.
0:23:25 > 0:23:31Deeping Airheads, the question is, are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three?
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Faith, Alan and Terry, first or second?
0:23:34 > 0:23:37- Shall we continue first? - Yeah.- We'll go first again.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43Best of luck to you guys.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47According to the expression, "A nod is as good as a wink..." to a what?
0:23:51 > 0:23:53It is a blind horse, is it?
0:23:53 > 0:23:56- Definitely.- Blind horse.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58Is correct. Well done.
0:24:01 > 0:24:08Eggheads, your question. The Left Bank is a renowned cultural area of which European city?
0:24:11 > 0:24:15- It's where they have the book stalls. - Yeah.
0:24:15 > 0:24:20It's definitely - I'm not allowed to say definitely any more.
0:24:20 > 0:24:21It is Paris.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Why are you not allowed to say definitely?
0:24:23 > 0:24:26- Because...- it didn't work in Are You An Egghead?!
0:24:26 > 0:24:31It was with Valerie's question and he thought it was one thing
0:24:31 > 0:24:33and I thought it definitely was that and it wasn't.
0:24:33 > 0:24:38- So I never say definitely now.- It didn't matter, though.- No.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42- It is definitely Paris. Well done. - Yes.- So one each.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Here we go, Airheads.
0:24:44 > 0:24:49In early 20th century US slang the word Flivver
0:24:49 > 0:24:51was used to mean a cheap what?
0:24:58 > 0:25:02- Can you spell that word, please? - Yes, I can. F-L-I-V-V-E-R.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05Have you ever heard of that?
0:25:05 > 0:25:07I have never heard of it.
0:25:07 > 0:25:08A cheap flivver.
0:25:08 > 0:25:14I don't think you'd give any name to a cheap house, would you?
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Cars.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20There wouldn't be too many about.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22I would tend to go for novel.
0:25:22 > 0:25:28I don't think you would call a cheap house anything. Just a house.
0:25:28 > 0:25:32You think is this some sort of, you know, Mills & Boon type thing?
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Yes, that is what I would go for.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36- Are we agreed?- Yeah.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40I haven't heard of it, but novel would be my guess.
0:25:40 > 0:25:41Novel.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45Novel is wrong. It's car.
0:25:45 > 0:25:50You are right. There weren't many around then, but enough, obviously.
0:25:50 > 0:25:54Eggheads you have the chance for the advantage. Here is your question.
0:25:54 > 0:25:59What type of organization is the Russian Spetsnaz?
0:26:05 > 0:26:10It is the equivalent of the American Delta Forces - Special Forces Unit.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16- According to my colleague Barry here...- Your new colleague.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18Yes. It is a Special Forces Unit.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Definitely, Barry?
0:26:20 > 0:26:23- Definitely.- You brave man.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26You are right, well done.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29So, Eggheads have two.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32If you don't get this right, the game is over.
0:26:32 > 0:26:37You need to get it right to hang on to chance of the £6,000. Here we go.
0:26:37 > 0:26:44Which former Sunday Express editor frequently cited the small village of Auchtermuchty in Fife
0:26:44 > 0:26:47as the paragon of Scottish values?
0:26:52 > 0:26:57I think it is John Junor because he used to write a column
0:26:57 > 0:27:01in the Express - whether it is the Sunday Express I don't remember.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03It was always like,
0:27:03 > 0:27:07"The ladies of Auchtermuchty would never agree with this."
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Something along those lines.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11- You're pretty sure?- Yes.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14We think it is John Junor.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Is the correct answer.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19- Well done.- Well done, Alan.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21In and fighting.
0:27:21 > 0:27:22But, Eggheads,
0:27:22 > 0:27:26if you get this right, then you have taken the contest
0:27:26 > 0:27:30and the money is snatched away from our good challengers.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Here is your question.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35The Ancient Greek orator Demosthenes
0:27:35 > 0:27:41supposedly improved his elocution by placing what in his mouth?
0:27:44 > 0:27:48Oh dear, here it comes again. Definitely pebbles.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50- Definitely?- Definitely.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52- So not olives or cheese?- No, no.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55- Are you certain?- Definitely pebbles.
0:27:55 > 0:28:00Demosthenes improved his elocution by placing pebbles in his mouth.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02You are right, Eggheads, you've won.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12Oh, Faith, Alan, Terry, sorry to see you go.
0:28:12 > 0:28:16We are sorry to go but we must.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Bad luck. The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20Their winning streak continues.
0:28:20 > 0:28:25I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £6,000 - the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27Eggheads, congratulations.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29Who will beat you?
0:28:29 > 0:28:34Join us next time to see if the new challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37£7,000 says they don't.
0:28:37 > 0:28:39Until then, goodbye.
