These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
Together, they make up the Eggheads, | 0:00:09 | 0:00:12 | |
arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:16 | |
The question is, can they be beaten? | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers pit | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
You might recognise them as they've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows. They are the Eggheads. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:36 | |
Taking on our quiz champions today are the Music Kids from London. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:40 | |
The team are all studying at the Royal Academy of Music | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
and they've all played alongside one another as members of the National Youth Orchestra. Let's meet them. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:49 | |
Hi, I'm Sasha, I'm 20 and I'm a music student. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
Hi, I'm Tom, I'm 20 and I'm a music student. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
Hi, I'm Hetty, I'm 19 and I'm a music student. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
Hi, I'm Steph, I'm 20 and I'm a music student. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
Hi, I'm Vicky, I'm 20 and I'm a music student. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
Welcome, Music Kids. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
So it's tuba, cello, cello, viola, clarinet? | 0:01:06 | 0:01:13 | |
Can you tell what instrument someone plays just by looking at them? | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
-They're usually holding it! -Right! | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
But there's no other way? | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
-Sometimes, yeah. -Sometimes people start to look | 0:01:21 | 0:01:24 | |
like their instrument after they've played it for a while. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
So, if you win, we want you to bring your | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
-investments out from under the desk. -LAUGHTER | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
Every day there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers, however if they fail | 0:01:33 | 0:01:37 | |
to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
So, Music Kids, the Eggheads have won the last 10 games, | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
which is quite good news for you. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
It means £11,000 says you can't beat them. Are you ready to try? | 0:01:46 | 0:01:50 | |
-Yeah! -Is that enough? | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
I think it's enough! The first head-to-head | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
battle is on the subject of Music! | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
-Who wants this? -Hetty. -Hetty the cellist. -Yes. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
And which Egghead would you like to smash | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
over the head with your instrument? | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
Chris. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
OK, Hetty from the Music Kids against Chris from the Eggheads. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the question room. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
-So, Hetty, you're the cellist? -Yes. -Playing since you were seven? | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
Yeah, ages. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
If people look like their instruments, what would Chris play? | 0:02:23 | 0:02:28 | |
-I reckon... -Piccolo? | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
I'd say oboe. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
-Good one. -Or trombone, maybe. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
What is it, Chris? What's your instrument? | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
Probably a sousaphone. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:39 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
Good luck in this round, Hetty. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
You get to choose. As you know, it's multiple-choice questions. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:46 | |
-You can choose the first or second set. -Can I go first? | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
Good luck, Music Kids. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:54 | |
Which musical instrument is played by stretching and squeezing with the | 0:02:54 | 0:02:58 | |
hands to work a central bellows that blows air over metal reeds? | 0:02:58 | 0:03:05 | |
I'm not going to say sousaphone - I think that's... | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
A harmonica is quite small. I think you blow down it. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:18 | |
I think I'm going to go for accordion. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
Accordion is the right answer, well done. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
How strange, Chris, you mentioned sousaphone... | 0:03:24 | 0:03:26 | |
-Indeed. -It's not a word I've heard for years. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:30 | |
It's a sort of out-sized tuba. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:33 | |
OK. Your question. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
Simon Le Bon became famous as the lead singer of which group? | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
Simon Le Bon was... | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
lead singer of Duran Duran. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
Yes, he was. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
And there was no sousaphone in Duran Duran. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
Hetty, your second question. | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
The Halle Orchestra is based in which British city? | 0:03:58 | 0:04:03 | |
Erm...I know it's not Cardiff. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
I think it's up north somewhere, | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
but I'm not sure it's as far as Edinburgh. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
I'll go for Manchester. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
You're right - Manchester is right. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
Well done, Hetty. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:21 | |
Chris, your question now. Before he took up the trumpet, | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
Louis Armstrong was a professional musician on which instrument? | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
Ah. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:33 | |
He took up the trumpet to play jazz when he was in his teens, | 0:04:33 | 0:04:39 | |
but prior to that he had been in the band that was then called | 0:04:39 | 0:04:44 | |
the Colored Waifs Home, where he lived, and I think in that band | 0:04:44 | 0:04:48 | |
he played the cornet. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:50 | |
Yes, he did. Well done. He played the cornet before the trumpet. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:55 | |
Two points each. Tight round. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
Hetty, the form of the vocal chamber music known as the madrigal | 0:04:58 | 0:05:03 | |
originated during the 14th century in which country? | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
I should know this, cos we learned about it in college. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:14 | |
Madrigal... I'm not going to say France. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
I'm not sure about Germany. I'm going to go for Italy. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
It's a bit of a...guess. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
-Bit of a guess? -Yeah. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
But you got it, though. Italy is right. Three out of three. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:29 | |
Storming performance by our musicians. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
Chris, which character from the musical Oliver! | 0:05:32 | 0:05:36 | |
sings Reviewing The Situation? | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
# I'm reviewing the situation... # | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
It's Fagin. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
It was indeed Fagin. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
Three points each - that means we go to sudden death. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
Gets a bit harder now, Hetty. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
We don't give you multiple choice. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:56 | |
Here's your question. The musician Eddie Lang, born in 1902, also known | 0:05:56 | 0:06:01 | |
as Blind Willie Dunn, was best known for playing which instrument? | 0:06:01 | 0:06:06 | |
I don't actually know, so I'm going to go for guitar. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:14 | |
Guitar is correct. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
Accompanied Bing Crosby. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
Chris, if you get this wrong, you're not in the final. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:28 | |
An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down, released in 1970, | 0:06:28 | 0:06:32 | |
was the debut album of which solo artist? | 0:06:32 | 0:06:36 | |
1970... | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
Hmm. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:45 | |
About the right time for David Bowie. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:49 | |
But it's the wrong answer, though. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
He was on his Space Oddity phase then. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
-It's Rod Stewart, Chris. -Aha. OK. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
Hetty, well done - you've beaten an Egghead. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:03 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
Good news for our challengers, the Music Kids. That means Hetty plays | 0:07:05 | 0:07:08 | |
in the final. ..Chris, you don't. Please, both of you come back and rejoin your teams. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:13 | |
As it stands, Eggheads have lost one brain from the final round. Challengers have lost no brains. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:20 | |
Next subject is Science. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:22 | |
How are musicians on Science today? | 0:07:22 | 0:07:25 | |
It's not me! > | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
Tom's going to do it. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
Who do you want to take on on Science? Who looks the least scientific? | 0:07:29 | 0:07:33 | |
-I think Daphne. -CJ. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
I'm going to go for Daphne. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
Tom from the Music Kids, Daphne from the Eggheads, please take | 0:07:37 | 0:07:41 | |
your positions in the question room. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
I'm going to ask each of you three questions on Science in turn. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:49 | |
-Tom, you can choose the first or second set. -I'll have the first set, please. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:53 | |
Tom, in an isosceles triangle, how many sides are the same length? | 0:07:56 | 0:08:01 | |
An isosceles triangle... | 0:08:04 | 0:08:08 | |
I'm fairly sure it's not none. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:11 | |
I think an isosceles, they're all the same length. I'm going to say three. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:16 | |
That's the wrong answer. It's two. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:21 | |
Three would have been an equilateral triangle. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
And none is a scalene. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:26 | |
A scalene triangle? | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
-Everyone go "Ooh". -Ooh! | 0:08:29 | 0:08:32 | |
Over to you, Daphne, with your scalene triangles. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:36 | |
What's the mathematical probability | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
of two coins flipped together both landing heads up? | 0:08:38 | 0:08:42 | |
-One in four? -Is that a question or an answer? | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
I hope it's the right answer, but I haven't got a clue. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:55 | |
I hate questions like... | 0:08:55 | 0:08:57 | |
-You're right, one in four is right. -Oh. | 0:08:57 | 0:08:59 | |
One in two...times two. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
Tom, how long does it take Uranus to make a complete orbit of the sun? | 0:09:01 | 0:09:08 | |
Well, it's towards the outer... | 0:09:19 | 0:09:22 | |
out of the... | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
so I'd say it's probably longer rather than shorter. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:29 | |
I'm going to go for the middle, 84 years. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:34 | |
84 years, I think. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:36 | |
It's a complete guess, though. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:38 | |
It's interesting how the going for the middle approach works | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
for a lot of people. It's worked for you. 84 is right. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:45 | |
Daphne, what's the name of the gravity-defying action | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
responsible for the spread of rising damp in buildings | 0:09:50 | 0:09:54 | |
that causes liquids to pass upwards through porous materials? | 0:09:54 | 0:09:59 | |
I think that's capillary motion, | 0:10:06 | 0:10:10 | |
is it? | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
Yes, it sounds right. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:14 | |
If I left you to your own devices, | 0:10:14 | 0:10:16 | |
you'd eventually be overcome by doubt. But anyway, you're right. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:20 | |
It's capillary. Pulls liquid upwards. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
Over to you, Tom. You need to this question or you're out of the final. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:29 | |
Where in this human body is the pisiform bone - | 0:10:29 | 0:10:33 | |
P-I-S-I-F-O-R-M - | 0:10:33 | 0:10:37 | |
..pisiform bone located? | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
Right. Well, I'm fairly sure | 0:10:43 | 0:10:46 | |
it's not in the knee. Famous last words! | 0:10:46 | 0:10:50 | |
The skull rings a bell somehow. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:56 | |
I don't think it's the wrist. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
I'm going to go for skull. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 | |
You're going for skull? If it's wrong, you're not in the final. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:08 | |
I'm sorry to say it is wrong - it's the wrist. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
So Daphne will be in the final. Tom, you were beaten by our Egghead. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
Please both of you come back and rejoin your team-mates. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
As it stands, the Eggheads and the challengers have lost one brain each from the final round. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:26 | |
Our next subject is Geography. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:29 | |
Who wants Geography? | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
-I'm going... Do you mind? -No. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
-I think you'll be awesome. -Is that Vicky? -Yeah. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:37 | |
Which Egghead looks lost? | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
-CJ, I reckon. -CJ, please. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:44 | |
OK, it's Vicky from the Music Kids versus CJ from the Eggheads. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:49 | |
To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the question room. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:54 | |
So, another musician, and it's your life, is it, Vicky? | 0:11:54 | 0:11:58 | |
-Absolutely. It has been forever. -Good luck here. -Thank you. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
Three questions on Geography. Multiple choice, as you know. Do you want the first or second set? | 0:12:01 | 0:12:08 | |
First, please. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:09 | |
After Brazil, which South American country has the largest area? | 0:12:12 | 0:12:17 | |
I'm pretty sure it's not Peru. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
I'm going to go with Argentina. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
You're spot-on, well done. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:31 | |
Your question, CJ. In which English county | 0:12:33 | 0:12:37 | |
are the seaside resorts of Ilfracombe and Dawlish located? | 0:12:37 | 0:12:43 | |
I'm only laughing cos I know your love of the English map. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
There are a lot of "Combe"s down in the south-west, aren't there? | 0:12:51 | 0:12:55 | |
Yes, of course, it's the sort of thing I should know. | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
But you know me and English geography are absolutely useless. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:03 | |
Um, Devon. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:06 | |
Is correct. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:08 | |
On which Mediterranean island would | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
you find the city of Paphos? | 0:13:12 | 0:13:15 | |
OK, I'm not really sure about this one. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:24 | |
For some reason, I've got a feeling about Crete. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:29 | |
Yeah, I'm going to go for Crete. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:34 | |
It's actually Cyprus. I'm sorry. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:37 | |
You're wrong. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:40 | |
So, CJ, you have the chance for the advantage for geography, now. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:44 | |
Which Australian city is built on the Torrens River? | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
Well, Melbourne's the Yarra. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
Sydney, I can't remember, but Torrens isn't ringing a bell. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:59 | |
I know nothing about Adelaide, so that's what I'll go for. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
Adelaide is absolutely right. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:03 | |
Vicky, you need to get this right. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
What's the average regularity of an | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
eruption of Old Faithful, the famous geyser in Yellowstone National Park? | 0:14:11 | 0:14:16 | |
I really don't have a clue about this one at all. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:24 | |
Once an hour seems very often. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:30 | |
I'm going to have a complete guess at once a year. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
On this occasion, the guess hasn't worked. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:44 | |
I only know this because I've seen it. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:46 | |
You stand around and, believe it or not, they say it should be coming up | 0:14:46 | 0:14:50 | |
in about 35 minutes. It's once an hour. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
It's very, very regular. So, Vicky, you're wrong, I'm afraid. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:56 | |
It's once an hour and that means you won't be joining your team in the final. ..CJ, you will. | 0:14:56 | 0:15:01 | |
Please, both of you, come back. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:03 | |
As it stands, the challengers have lost two brains | 0:15:03 | 0:15:06 | |
from the final round. The Eggheads have lost one brain. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:10 | |
The last subject is Food and Drink. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:13 | |
Which of you wants this? | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
I'll do it. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:17 | |
On the basis he eats a lot. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
That's a good reason! | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
So you've got Kevin left and Barry. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:26 | |
-I reckon Kevin. -All right, we'll go with Kevin. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:30 | |
I reckon you watch this programme, don't you? | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
You've chosen him on his weakest subject, although he's still strong on it. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:36 | |
OK, Sasha from the Music Kids against Kevin from the Eggheads, please take your positions. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:41 | |
It's Food and Drink. Three questions, multiple choice, and you can choose, | 0:15:42 | 0:15:46 | |
-Sasha, the first or second set. -I'll go first. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
Sasha, what type of sauce is usually used as the basis for a pizza? | 0:15:52 | 0:15:56 | |
Being a student, I do tend to eat | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
a lot of pizza, so I'm going to have to go with tomato. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:07 | |
It's absolutely right, well done. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
Kevin, a butty is a colloquial term for what? | 0:16:12 | 0:16:16 | |
As in chip or various other varieties, | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
I suppose you could call it a sandwich. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |
A couple of slices of bread | 0:16:26 | 0:16:29 | |
or two halves of a roll. | 0:16:29 | 0:16:31 | |
Chuck a lot of stuff in there. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
So, sandwich. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:35 | |
And it is sandwich, well done. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:37 | |
Back to you, Sasha. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
What type of food is the famous Bath Oliver? | 0:16:39 | 0:16:43 | |
Bath Oliver... | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
Well... | 0:16:52 | 0:16:54 | |
I have absolutely no idea. | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
Anchovy paste sounds more disgusting than Bath Oliver, to be honest. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:05 | |
So I'm going to cut that out. I'm going to go with sausage, because | 0:17:05 | 0:17:11 | |
it sounds like a sort of posh version of a sausage. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:15 | |
Sausage is your answer? | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
It's actually biscuit. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
Sorry, Sasha. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
Kevin, back to you. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
Not often we see Kevin pull clear on Food and Drink, | 0:17:24 | 0:17:27 | |
but this is the moment you can. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
-Kevin doesn't have an oven or a fridge. -Oh, no! | 0:17:29 | 0:17:32 | |
So he's constantly looking in bins. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:36 | |
It's amazing what you find in them! I'm not going to tell anybody what I found in yours. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:43 | |
Kevin, what's the basis of the Chinese dish chop suey? | 0:17:43 | 0:17:47 | |
I've never actually had chop suey, so... | 0:17:54 | 0:17:58 | |
Well...I'm pretty sure it's egg noodles. | 0:17:58 | 0:18:02 | |
I hope I'm not mixing it up with anything else. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
Egg noodles. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:07 | |
I assumed you were having takeaways every night. | 0:18:07 | 0:18:09 | |
Oh, no, no, no. I eat out, but eating out covers a whole variety of sins. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:15 | |
I don't generally take much food home. Just occasionally. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:19 | |
-It figures, because it's bean sprouts. -Is it? | 0:18:19 | 0:18:21 | |
-Ah. -You're wrong. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:23 | |
So, Sasha, here's your next question. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
What name is given to the colourless | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
or pale, straw-coloured Scandinavian spirit which is | 0:18:28 | 0:18:32 | |
distilled from potato or grain mash and flavoured with caraway seeds? | 0:18:32 | 0:18:37 | |
I wish Tom were here, cos he's a barman. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:47 | |
I'm going to go with Haxn because | 0:18:49 | 0:18:53 | |
it's got too many consonants in it, so it should be Scandinavian. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:58 | |
I love the logic, and the | 0:18:58 | 0:19:00 | |
logic sounds so right, but the answer is wrong. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:03 | |
Aquavit is the answer. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:06 | |
Kevin, your chance to take the round and make sure | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
you've booked yourself a place in the final. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:11 | |
Puzzone di Moena... | 0:19:11 | 0:19:13 | |
I'll spell it for you. P-U-Z-Z-O-N-E | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
then D-I | 0:19:16 | 0:19:17 | |
then M-O-E-N-A. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:19 | |
Puzzone di Moena, from the Trentino region of Italy, | 0:19:19 | 0:19:23 | |
is what type of foodstuff? | 0:19:23 | 0:19:25 | |
Puzzone di Moena? | 0:19:27 | 0:19:29 | |
It doesn't sound like a pasta. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:31 | |
Most varieties of pasta tend to have one-word names. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
I don't know. It could be a... | 0:19:34 | 0:19:37 | |
I've never heard of it, so it could be either of the others. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
I'm trying to get any kind of... Puzzone di Moena? | 0:19:40 | 0:19:46 | |
It doesn't sound... | 0:19:47 | 0:19:49 | |
It may well be, but it doesn't sound to me | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
as though it should be a mushroom. | 0:19:51 | 0:19:54 | |
When in doubt with these things, say "cheese", | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
because there are so many varieties of cheese, so I'll go for that. | 0:19:57 | 0:20:01 | |
Another bit of quizzers' logic | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
that we learn on the programme - "When in doubt, say cheese." | 0:20:03 | 0:20:06 | |
And it's worked, you're right. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
I'm sorry you didn't have a cheese question yourself, Sasha. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:11 | |
It means you're not in the final round, and Kevin is. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:15 | |
Please come back and rejoin your team-mates. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:18 | |
This is what we've been playing towards. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:21 | |
It's time for the final round, which, as always, is General Knowledge. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
Those of you who lost your head-to-heads | 0:20:24 | 0:20:26 | |
won't be allowed to take part in this round. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:28 | |
That's Sasha, Tom and Vicky from the Music Kids, | 0:20:28 | 0:20:31 | |
and Chris from the Eggheads. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:33 | |
Please would you take your positions backstage? | 0:20:33 | 0:20:36 | |
Hetty and Steph, you're playing to win the Music Kids £11,000. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:43 | |
-Do I sense you're slightly nervous? -A little bit. -A lot! | 0:20:43 | 0:20:47 | |
"A little bit. A lot"! | 0:20:47 | 0:20:49 | |
Kevin, CJ, Daphne and Barry, you're playing for something which money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:54 | |
As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:57 | |
The questions are all General Knowledge. | 0:20:57 | 0:21:00 | |
You are allowed to confer. ..Music Kids, the question is | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four? | 0:21:03 | 0:21:07 | |
Hetty and Steph... Don't answer that one! Do you want to go first or second? | 0:21:07 | 0:21:12 | |
-First? -First. -..First, please. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:15 | |
Here's your first question, good luck. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
The actress Demi Moore married which actor in 1987? | 0:21:20 | 0:21:25 | |
I'm pretty sure it's Bruce Willis. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:34 | |
-Yeah. -And she's married to Ashton Kutcher now, isn't she? | 0:21:34 | 0:21:40 | |
We're going to go for Bruce Willis. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
I'm glad you did, you're right. Well done. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:46 | |
Eggheads, what term refers to an advertising campaign that relies | 0:21:48 | 0:21:52 | |
on the public voluntarily passing on the marketing message, | 0:21:52 | 0:21:55 | |
often via the internet? | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
-I assume it's viral. -I would think so. -I've not heard of it. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:06 | |
I think I might have, somewhere. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
-The other two... -It can't be the other two. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:13 | |
-Bacterial? No. In the same sense as a computer virus. -Yes. | 0:22:13 | 0:22:17 | |
Consensus of opinion is that it must be viral. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:21 | |
It is viral. We might have | 0:22:21 | 0:22:22 | |
had one of the great moments of the show if you had said fungal. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:26 | |
Fungal advertising? A lot of it is! | 0:22:26 | 0:22:29 | |
One apiece. Music Kids, which US state | 0:22:31 | 0:22:33 | |
is known as the Land of Lincoln? | 0:22:33 | 0:22:36 | |
-I'm pretty sure it's not California. -No, I don't think it is. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:46 | |
I want to say Illinois just cos it's got an L in it! | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
-I think we should take a stab at Illinois. -Erm...Illinois? | 0:22:52 | 0:22:57 | |
Is that how you say it? | 0:22:57 | 0:22:59 | |
You took a stab at Illinois because it had more than one L in it? | 0:22:59 | 0:23:02 | |
Because we don't think it could be the other ones. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:07 | |
I don't think it's California, but we're not sure. Just a guess. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:11 | |
You're right. Well done! | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
Well done, brilliant! | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
Eggheads, which London area is sometimes referred to as Banglatown? | 0:23:18 | 0:23:23 | |
It has to be Brick Lane. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:31 | |
Monica Ali wrote an excellent book called Brick Lane, | 0:23:31 | 0:23:36 | |
about the Bangladeshi community. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
So we're saying Brick Lane. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
Brick Lane is correct. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:43 | |
Two each. Keep that £11,000 within your grasp. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:47 | |
La Danse, featuring five naked | 0:23:47 | 0:23:50 | |
forms dancing in a circle, is a 1909 work by which artist? | 0:23:50 | 0:23:55 | |
-I think it's Matisse. -Do you? | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
-I think. My brain is... -Salvador Dali is really abstract. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:05 | |
-Surrealist. -All of those clocks and things. -It's not a Dali. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:08 | |
Duchamp... My art teacher is going to kill me! | 0:24:08 | 0:24:11 | |
I've never heard of Duchamp. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
-I've heard of Matisse. I don't know. -Do you trust me on Matisse? | 0:24:13 | 0:24:17 | |
-I trust you. -It might be wrong. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
Just go for it - we've got nothing to lose. Well...just £11,000! | 0:24:19 | 0:24:25 | |
I really don't want to get it wrong. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:30 | |
If you get it wrong, there's always a chance these guys skate away. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:34 | |
-They do that. -Matisse... | 0:24:34 | 0:24:35 | |
I should know! | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
I know the picture, exactly, but I think it's Matisse. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:42 | |
-If you know the picture, you'd have read... -OK, I think it's Matisse. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:46 | |
-Great, you're right. Well done. -APPLAUSE | 0:24:46 | 0:24:49 | |
Very strong play by the Music Kids. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:54 | |
You got three out of three. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
Eggheads, if you get this one wrong, they've got £11,000. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:02 | |
What was the first name of the | 0:25:02 | 0:25:04 | |
millionaire father of John F Kennedy and his brothers Edward and Bobby, | 0:25:04 | 0:25:08 | |
a man who did much to further their political careers? | 0:25:08 | 0:25:11 | |
I think we're all happy with Joseph. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
Yes, as CJ puts it, we're all happy with Joseph. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
He reputedly made his money by smuggling booze. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:26 | |
-Allegedly. -Well, I said "reputedly"! | 0:25:26 | 0:25:29 | |
He's long gone now. You think his name is Joseph? | 0:25:29 | 0:25:33 | |
-Yes. -You're right, it's Joseph. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:35 | |
Three points each, which means we move to sudden death. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:40 | |
The stress and tension increase somewhat. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:42 | |
Which American singer and actor | 0:25:42 | 0:25:45 | |
starred in the films Pal Joey and The Manchurian Candidate? | 0:25:45 | 0:25:49 | |
I don't know. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:52 | |
-I've heard of The Manchurian Candidate. I don't know the other film. -No. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:56 | |
I have no idea. Singer and actor? | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
There are quite a lot of them! | 0:25:59 | 0:26:02 | |
Just say names, who you think. | 0:26:03 | 0:26:06 | |
J-Lo! | 0:26:06 | 0:26:09 | |
-I think it's...a male. -A male? | 0:26:09 | 0:26:13 | |
Singer and actor. | 0:26:13 | 0:26:15 | |
It's not Elvis or something like that? Is that stupid? | 0:26:15 | 0:26:19 | |
-Elvis was an actor, wasn't he? -Yeah, but Manchurian Candidate... -Never seen it. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:23 | |
I think it's before we were born. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:25 | |
I want to say Marilyn Monroe. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:33 | |
-Shall we just go with it? -Just go with anything. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:38 | |
-You say it. -No, you say it. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
OK, Elvis Presley. We have no idea. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:44 | |
-Frank Sinatra was the answer. -Oh! | 0:26:44 | 0:26:46 | |
Eggheads, if you get this right, | 0:26:46 | 0:26:49 | |
you've taken the money away from our musicians. | 0:26:49 | 0:26:52 | |
Not that I want that to rest heavy on your conscience or anything. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:56 | |
I can assure you it won't. | 0:26:56 | 0:26:58 | |
Which former Manchester United footballer is known as the baby-faced assassin? | 0:27:00 | 0:27:06 | |
That's Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. | 0:27:06 | 0:27:08 | |
It's the perennial substitute, Ole Gunnar...Solskjaer. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:16 | |
-Excuse my pronunciation! -Ish! | 0:27:16 | 0:27:18 | |
-Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is your answer? -Yes. | 0:27:20 | 0:27:23 | |
And it is the right answer. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:26 | |
Sorry, Music Kids. I feel for you. | 0:27:26 | 0:27:29 | |
Eggheads, congratulations. You've won. | 0:27:29 | 0:27:31 | |
You came really close - you got three out of three in the multiple choice. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:41 | |
We've seen teams beat them with just the first three answers correct. So, well done. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:47 | |
Have you got a moment of let-down, here? | 0:27:47 | 0:27:50 | |
I don't think we were expecting to win. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:52 | |
We weren't expecting to get to the final round. | 0:27:52 | 0:27:55 | |
We thought we'd get everything wrong! | 0:27:55 | 0:27:58 | |
Well, commiserations to you. The Eggheads have done what does seem to come naturally to them. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:03 | |
Their winning streak continues. You won't be going home with the £11,000. | 0:28:03 | 0:28:07 | |
That money now rolls over to the next show. | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
Eggheads, congratulations. Who's ever going to beat you, I wonder? Join us next time | 0:28:10 | 0:28:15 | |
to see if the new challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. £12,000 says they don't. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:20 | |
Until then, goodbye. | 0:28:20 | 0:28:22 | |
