These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
Together, they make up the Eggheads, | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
The question is, can they be beaten? | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
You may recognise them as they've won | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
some of the country's toughest quiz shows - they are the Eggheads. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:37 | |
Taking on our awesome quiz champions today, the Huddersfield Terriers. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |
Team member Stanley is the ringleader | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
and decided it was time to get a group of friends together | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
to take on the Eggheads. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
Here they are. Let's meet them. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:50 | |
Hello. My name is Neil, I'm 71, I'm a retired pharmaceutical executive. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:55 | |
I'm Stanley. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
I'm an 84-year-old retired engineer. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:02 | |
Hi. I'm Diana, I'm 68 years old and I'm a semi-retired minister's wife. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:10 | |
Hi. I'm Mike, I'm 68, I'm a semi-retired Baptist minister. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:15 | |
Hello. I'm Terry, aged 65 years old, retired printer. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:19 | |
-Welcome, Huddersfield Terriers. -Thank you. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
-You got everyone together, Stanley? -Yes. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
Tell us how you all met originally. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
I've known Neil... Neil's my neighbour. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
I know Mike and his wife, and I know Terry... | 0:01:31 | 0:01:35 | |
Mike, you're all quizzing in the area? | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
Yes, that's right. There are several quiz leagues in the West Riding. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:41 | |
We're very keen on that sort of thing. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
Are you setting the questions now? | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
Yes. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:46 | |
For ten years, our church had a team in the Colne Valley Quiz League. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:50 | |
But when I finished full-time pastorate, the team retired. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:56 | |
And then the organisers of the Colne Valley Quiz League | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
asked me if I'd be willing to set the questions. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
I've done two seasons so far and they haven't thrown me out yet. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
And I guess, Diana, you'll tell us he hasn't really retired at all. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
Because they never do, do they? | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
Absolutely not. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
-No. -So he's still preaching and still...well, wearing the garb? | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
And he's going into schools, he's making models, | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
he's taking his Bible history exhibition around the place. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
Just...you name it, he does it. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
You won't ever stop? | 0:02:27 | 0:02:28 | |
No, certainly not. Not in Christ's service, you don't! | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
OK. Let's see how well you do against the Eggheads here. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
Every day, there's £1,000 cash up for grabs for our challengers. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:39 | |
If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, it rolls over to the next show. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:43 | |
Huddersfield Terriers, the Eggheads have won the last two games, | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
which means £3,000 says you can't beat them. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
-Are you ready to try? -We shall try. -Yes. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
First head-to-head battle is on the subject of Politics. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
-Who is good on this? -That's me. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
-Is it you, Stanley? -Yes. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:00 | |
-Stanley. -Stanley. OK, fantastic. Against which Egghead? | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
CJ. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
-Ooh, straight away, you know who you want to take on. -Yep. -OK. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
-No flies on Stanley. -We've planned this, coming down in't train. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
Stanley from the Huddersfield Terriers. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
I'm thinking, at 84, you may be one of our oldest contestants, which is a great honour for us. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:21 | |
Versus CJ from the Eggheads. To ensure no conferring, | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
would you please take your positions in the question room? | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
Stanley, I know you've done a number of different jobs. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
RAF, bus conductor... | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
I were five years in the Royal Air Force, on the radio side. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:39 | |
And I've been a bus conductor. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
I worked in a textile factory. I was in the warehouse. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:45 | |
And I've been a machine operator in an engineering company. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
Thank you for joining us today. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
Going to ask you three multiple choice questions on politics in turn | 0:03:50 | 0:03:55 | |
and obviously whoever gets the most right goes through to the final. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
Your team are all hoping you're going to knock out CJ. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
-And, CJ... -Yes, Jeremy? -..how are we today? | 0:04:01 | 0:04:05 | |
Erm, a little sniffly but we'll get by. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
-Very floral. -I always try to be for you. I bring you flowers, Jeremy. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
Your questions - you can take the first or second set, Stanley. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:15 | |
Which would you like? | 0:04:15 | 0:04:16 | |
I think I'll have the second. Put CJ in to bat. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
CJ, you go first. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
In 1980, the Conservative Party introduced legislation that gave people the right to buy what? | 0:04:24 | 0:04:29 | |
I think it soon became the right to buy their own cardboard box. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:38 | |
But originally it was council houses. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:40 | |
And council houses is correct. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
Over to you, Stanley, on Politics. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
By what name was Harold Wilson's inner circle of advisors known? | 0:04:46 | 0:04:52 | |
It were the Kitchen Cabinet. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
Absolutely right. With Marcia Falkender and all of those. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
Well done. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
Well done, Huddersfield Terriers. You're off the mark. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
CJ, under which Labour leader was the red flag ditched as the party symbol in favour of the red rose? | 0:05:07 | 0:05:15 | |
Oh dear. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:22 | |
Because between they cover a three-year period, don't they? | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
Ohhh dear. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:31 | |
I think it had gone by the time Blair got there. Which was, erm...'94? | 0:05:33 | 0:05:39 | |
'92, sorry. John Smith... I think John Smith died in '92. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:43 | |
Er... | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
So was it Kinnock or Smith? | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
This is nasty, because Smith was only there for two years before he died. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:55 | |
I'm going to say it's possibly one of the changes John Smith brought in, | 0:05:55 | 0:06:00 | |
trying to be more conciliatory, trying to appeal to a wider group. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
So I'm going to try John Smith, but I do not know this. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
Well, your logic got you halfway there. It wasn't Tony Blair. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:12 | |
Smith died in '94, I think. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:16 | |
But Kinnock actually ditched the red flag in time for the '87 election. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:21 | |
-Oh, well. -So, it was Neil Kinnock, CJ. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:25 | |
OK, Stanley. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:29 | |
Your chance to take advantage. Here we go. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
Which Conservative MP was pilloried for saying, | 0:06:31 | 0:06:35 | |
"The SAS have a famous motto - who dares wins. We dare, we will win," | 0:06:35 | 0:06:42 | |
in a speech about Europe at the 1995 Conservative Conference? | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
I shall say Michael Portillo said that. | 0:06:56 | 0:06:59 | |
Michael Portillo did indeed say that. You're right. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
Well done. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
You're beating CJ on your '90s politics. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:09 | |
CJ, back to you. If you get this wrong, you're out. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
On which date in 1963 was John F Kennedy assassinated? | 0:07:12 | 0:07:17 | |
22nd November. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
You're right. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:26 | |
That's the kind of fact you have, as quizzers, with your mother's milk! | 0:07:26 | 0:07:30 | |
Stanley, you can beat him if you get this question right. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
What is the name of the large octagonal hall | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
linking the House of Commons with the House of Lords where the public can go to meet their MP? | 0:07:38 | 0:07:44 | |
I shall say it's the Central Lobby. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
Have you been there, Stanley? | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
No, I've never been. | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
Well, you're completely right. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:01 | |
It's the Central Lobby. Well done. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
At 84, three out of three, | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
and beating an Egghead - not bad. You're in the final, Stanley. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:11 | |
That's great for your team. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
CJ, you're not. Please, both of you, come back and rejoin us here. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:17 | |
So, great work by Stanley. The challengers have lost no brains from the final round. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
The Eggheads have lost one brain. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:25 | |
The next subject is Music. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:29 | |
-Which challenger wants music? -Who's any good at this? | 0:08:29 | 0:08:32 | |
-Shall I try it? -I'm not very good. -Not mine. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
-I'll try it? -OK. -You try it. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:38 | |
-All the best. -OK, I'll try this. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
Now the difficult bit. Which of this shower...? | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
I'm sorry, this bunch of lovely people? | 0:08:44 | 0:08:47 | |
Well, I've never seen Barry before, | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
so I don't know what his capabilities are. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:53 | |
But I'll take a risk and go for Barry. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
OK. Neil from the Huddersfield Terriers against Barry from the Eggheads. | 0:08:57 | 0:09:01 | |
To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the question room. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:05 | |
I'll ask each of you three questions on music in turn. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
We know a bit about your musical history, Barry. I think it's two out of three you've won | 0:09:09 | 0:09:13 | |
-since you joined us. -Mmm-hmm. -That sound right? -Sounds about fair, yes. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:18 | |
Neil, do you want the first or second set of questions? | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
I'll follow Stanley's example and go second. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:24 | |
Over to you, Barry. Who won an Ivor Novello award in 2008 for her song Love Is A Losing Game? | 0:09:27 | 0:09:33 | |
Gosh. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:39 | |
I'm not sure on this, | 0:09:40 | 0:09:42 | |
but it doesn't sound like the sort of award Amy Winehouse would win. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:46 | |
That leaves me with Duffy and Kate Nash. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
I really don't know, but I'm going to go for Kate Nash. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:54 | |
That is incorrect. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
-It was Amy Winehouse. -Oh! | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
Whoops! | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
What a good start. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:05 | |
-Neil, you haven't even lifted a finger and already you're winning. -I'm glad I went second. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:10 | |
OK, see how you go with this one. The cover of which band's second album featured an iconic image | 0:10:10 | 0:10:17 | |
of a naked baby swimming towards a dollar bill? | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
Well, I have heard of all three, but I haven't a clue which one it is. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:32 | |
I'll have a guess at Nirvana. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
Ha ha! You're spot-on. Well done. | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
-I won't ask any follow-up questions on Nirvana, OK? -Thank you. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:43 | |
When the album was released, it was a naked male baby, | 0:10:43 | 0:10:47 | |
so what the distributors insisted happened was, when companies were selling it, | 0:10:47 | 0:10:53 | |
they put the price stickers over the sensitive area, shall we say. | 0:10:53 | 0:10:56 | |
Really? How un-artistic of them. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
Is that the album with the song Smells Like Teen Spirit? | 0:10:59 | 0:11:02 | |
-Yes. -Yeah. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
Over to you, Barry. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
Who had a 1987 UK top five album with Sign O' The Times? | 0:11:06 | 0:11:10 | |
Oh gosh. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:14 | |
Another one on an area of music that I'm not very conversant with. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:19 | |
I know some George Michael albums. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
I'm going to probably stick my foot in my mouth again | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
and say I don't think it's him. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
Again... I tried the extreme right, so I'll try the extreme right again. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
It's got to be right eventually. I'll go for the Beastie Boys. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
-Not this time! -It will be right eventually, but not now. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:39 | |
Prince did Sign O' The Times. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
So, it's going rather well for you, Neil. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
In fact, it's going rather well for the Terriers. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
Isn't it? So far, not a hair out of place. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:53 | |
Here's your question. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:55 | |
During the 1970s, Down Down was a UK number one single for which group? | 0:11:55 | 0:11:59 | |
Down down, deeper and down. I think that was Status Quo. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:09 | |
-Is that your answer? -It is. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
You're right. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:13 | |
Neil, well done. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:16 | |
No way back for our Egghead. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
You will be in the final. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:20 | |
Both of you, please rejoin your teams. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:22 | |
As it stands, the challengers have lost no brains from the final round. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
The Eggheads have lost two brains. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
In summary, it's a fascinating game today. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:32 | |
Next subject is Science. Which challenger wants Science? | 0:12:32 | 0:12:36 | |
Is the plan on track? | 0:12:37 | 0:12:38 | |
-Haven't a clue. -Should've been me! | 0:12:38 | 0:12:40 | |
Should've been you? No, obviously not. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:42 | |
Let's see, there's three of us. Which... | 0:12:42 | 0:12:45 | |
Diana, Mike or Terry. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:46 | |
Who do we want to sacrifice here? | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
Do you want to sacrifice...? | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
I think we should save you for the final round. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:54 | |
-You do? -I think we should send Mike. -OK. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
Science, I'll get nothing. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
Diana, I feel it's going your way. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:01 | |
-I'm not a scientist. -You've got to choose which Egghead. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:03 | |
Chris, please. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:05 | |
Chris. So, Diana from the Huddersfield Terriers | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
against Chris from the Eggheads. To ensure no conferring, please take your positions. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:12 | |
I'll ask each of you three questions on Science in turn. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
Diana, first or second set? | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
I'll go with the trend and have the second, please. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:24 | |
Chris, through which part of its body does a viper snake inject its venom? | 0:13:27 | 0:13:33 | |
Its fangs are hollow tubes connected to poison sacs, so fangs. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:42 | |
Fangs is the correct answer, Chris. Yes. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:46 | |
Diana, over to you. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:48 | |
In engineering, pneumatic systems are operated by what? | 0:13:48 | 0:13:53 | |
Well, I do know a tiny bit about Greek. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:01 | |
It's compressed air. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
How did Greek lead you to that? | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
Well, pneumus, I think, means... | 0:14:06 | 0:14:08 | |
air or spirit or something like that. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:12 | |
Well done. You're right. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
Chris, what name is given to a positively-charged ion? | 0:14:18 | 0:14:22 | |
It's attracted to the cathode, so it's a cation. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
You sure it's not another animal? | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
No, it's not a pigion or a dogion. Pigion is something else entirely. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:38 | |
-It's not a dogion. -Cation is correct. Well done. Diana... | 0:14:38 | 0:14:43 | |
the now-obsolete Dick test, | 0:14:43 | 0:14:47 | |
named after American bacteriologists George and Gladys Dick | 0:14:47 | 0:14:53 | |
was traditionally used to detect susceptibility to which disease? | 0:14:53 | 0:14:58 | |
It will have to be a guess. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:07 | |
Try measles. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:10 | |
Measles is your answer. Anyone on your team know, I wonder? | 0:15:10 | 0:15:14 | |
-Does Mike? -No, no. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:17 | |
I think it's, erm... | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
I think it's scarlet fever. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:21 | |
Why do you say that? | 0:15:21 | 0:15:23 | |
-I seem to recall the name of the test. -Uh-huh. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:27 | |
You're right, actually. It is scarlet fever. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
Sorry, Diana, you got that wrong. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:32 | |
We're quite a way into the game | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
and your team has not made a single error, until now. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
Chris. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
Apart from iron and nickel, what is the only metal that has the ability | 0:15:39 | 0:15:44 | |
to become permanently magnetised after exposure to a magnet? | 0:15:44 | 0:15:49 | |
Well, copper won't magnetise. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:56 | |
Neither will platinum, so it's got to be the rare metal cobalt. | 0:15:56 | 0:16:00 | |
Cobalt is correct. That means, Diana, he's got three out of three. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
There's no way back in this round. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
Sorry, you won't be in the final round. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
Chris, you will. Please, both of you, rejoin your team-mates. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:13 | |
As it stands, the challengers have lost one brain from the final round. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:19 | |
The Eggheads have lost two brains. Our last subject is Sport. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:23 | |
Now, I know one of you was waiting for this. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
CHUCKLING | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
Terry. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:28 | |
OK, which Egghead do you want? You can have Daphne or Kevin. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
I'll...go for Kevin. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:35 | |
Terry from the Huddersfield Terriers against Kevin from the Eggheads. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:38 | |
Please, take your positions in the question room. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:41 | |
Terry, tell us why it's the Huddersfield Terriers. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
Well, because we come from Huddersfield... | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
and it's reasonably well known as the football club. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:51 | |
I think it derives from that. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
The Huddersfield FC mascot is a terrier? | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
It is indeed. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:58 | |
And I know you were the world record-holder for carrying coal. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:01 | |
-Tell us about that, please. -It's an annual race at Gawthorpe near Wakefield. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:05 | |
It started with a hundredweight of coal | 0:17:05 | 0:17:07 | |
and then became 50 kilos when we went metric. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
You run for just over a K, uphill on the road. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:12 | |
And I managed to win the race on eight occasions. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:17 | |
From '77 to '85. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
Good way to fill a Sunday afternoon(!) | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
I'll ask each of you three questions on Sport in turn. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
Maybe slightly less obscure sports. Terry, choose first or second set. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:28 | |
I'll be consistent and stay second. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
Kevin, who defeated Andy Murray in the men's singles quarterfinals at Wimbledon in 2008? | 0:17:34 | 0:17:41 | |
I think he beat Gasquet in an earlier round | 0:17:46 | 0:17:49 | |
but he fell in the quarterfinals to the eventual champion - Nadal. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:54 | |
Battle of the Biceps! | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
Yep, you are right, he lost to Nadal. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:59 | |
Over to you, Terry. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
In 2003, Alex Ferguson accidentally kicked a football boot | 0:18:02 | 0:18:08 | |
at the face of which of his players? | 0:18:08 | 0:18:10 | |
Eric Cantona had gone by then. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
I believe it was David Beckham. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:21 | |
Absolutely right, David Beckham it was. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:26 | |
Kevin, Graham Price, Bobby Windsor and Charlie Faulkner | 0:18:30 | 0:18:34 | |
were the legendary front row of which Welsh rugby union side? | 0:18:34 | 0:18:38 | |
Well, I thought of one of those before the choices came up | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
and I'm seeing if either of the others might change my mind. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:52 | |
I thought of Pontypool before they came up, so I'm sticking with it. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:59 | |
And you have got it right. It is Pontypool. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:03 | |
Terry, here's your next question. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
Which Formula One team was bought by Bernie Ecclestone in 1972? | 0:19:07 | 0:19:12 | |
I haven't a clue, so I've got to guess. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
I'll go for Brabham. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:28 | |
Absolutely right. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:30 | |
So, over to you, Kevin. It is tight this round. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:36 | |
Katherine Grainger is an Olympic medal winner and four times world champion, in which sport? | 0:19:36 | 0:19:42 | |
She is a rower, Jeremy. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:46 | |
She is a rower. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:49 | |
You are quite right, it's rowing. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
So Terry, if you don't get this right, you won't be in the final. | 0:19:51 | 0:19:55 | |
Everyone has got their fingers crossed for you. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
Which golfer prevented Jack Nicholas from winning | 0:19:58 | 0:20:00 | |
a record-breaking fifth US Open in 1982 with an amazing 17th hole chip in? | 0:20:00 | 0:20:07 | |
Guess again - Lee Trevino. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:19 | |
-Now, that is wrong. -Right. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:22 | |
It was Tom Watson. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
The answer is wrong. So Kevin, you are in the final. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:29 | |
Terry, I'm sorry to say you are not. Please, both of you, come back to the studio. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:33 | |
This is what we have been playing towards, it's time for our final round. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:40 | |
I'm afraid those of you who lost your Head-to-Heads won't be allowed to take part in this round. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:45 | |
Diana and Terry from the Terriers | 0:20:45 | 0:20:48 | |
and also CJ and Barry from the Eggheads, would you now please leave the studio. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:53 | |
Neil, Stanley and Mike, you are playing to win the Huddersfield Terrier's £3,000. | 0:20:55 | 0:21:01 | |
Mike, you kept yourself out of the play so far, | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
and you are now here in the final. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:06 | |
-Yes. -Strategy? | 0:21:06 | 0:21:08 | |
Slightly, I hope! | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
Your interests are amazing - you make scale models of houses, you play the guitar, well travelled, | 0:21:11 | 0:21:17 | |
you did a theology degree. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:18 | |
You have got quite a lot cornered. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
Erm, a fair amount. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:23 | |
I was glad I didn't have to go on the music one. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:26 | |
Well, I'm not good on pop. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:28 | |
I could have bluffed my way on classical, I think. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
Is there a weakness on this side now, a bit of sport lacking? | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
Oh, definitely, yes. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:36 | |
And modern pop music. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
Sport and pop music. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:42 | |
-I'm still in the Glenn Miller era. -Glen Miller, yeah! | 0:21:42 | 0:21:46 | |
Good luck. Kevin, Daphne and Chris, you are playing for something money can't buy - | 0:21:46 | 0:21:51 | |
the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:52 | |
As usual I will ask each team three questions in turn. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:55 | |
The questions are all general knowledge. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
You are allowed to confer. | 0:21:57 | 0:21:59 | |
So, Huddersfield Terriers, | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
the question is, are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three? | 0:22:01 | 0:22:05 | |
Would you like to go first or second? | 0:22:05 | 0:22:08 | |
-What do you think? -What should we do? -Stay with second or change? | 0:22:08 | 0:22:12 | |
I would say go first. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:14 | |
OK, if you think so, yeah. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
We've decided that we'll go first this time, Jeremy. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
All the best to you. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
What name is used colloquially to refer to a woman in Australia? | 0:22:24 | 0:22:29 | |
ALL: Sheila, isn't it? Yeah. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:34 | |
That's a Sheila. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:36 | |
Bang on. Sheila is right! | 0:22:36 | 0:22:38 | |
Good start. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:39 | |
First question for the Eggheads. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:42 | |
Which fairytale features the line, "Grandmother, what big eyes you have!" | 0:22:42 | 0:22:47 | |
That would be Little Red Riding Hood. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:56 | |
Indeed, Grandmother! | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
You don't mind me saying that... Great Grandmother, Daphne! | 0:22:58 | 0:23:03 | |
Already or soon? | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
Already and another one on the way. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
Great. Let us know when it happens. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:09 | |
Back to you, Terriers. | 0:23:09 | 0:23:12 | |
James McEvoy married which fellow actor in 2006? | 0:23:12 | 0:23:17 | |
Oh! | 0:23:24 | 0:23:26 | |
Have you any bright ideas? | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
It's a difficult one, isn't it? | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
I think Rachel Weisz has been married for some time | 0:23:38 | 0:23:43 | |
unless it's her second marriage. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
-I don't know... -To be honest, I don't know the other two at all. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:51 | |
The only name I recognise is Rachel Weisz. | 0:23:51 | 0:23:54 | |
-What do we do? Draw a straw, toss a coin? -I haven't a clue. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:58 | |
I haven't a clue. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
If in doubt, go down the middle. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:06 | |
What do you think? | 0:24:09 | 0:24:12 | |
We'll go for Rachel Weisz, I think. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:15 | |
-OK. -We'll risk Rachel Weisz. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
-On the basis that that's the one you've heard of. -Yes. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:21 | |
You've got it wrong. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:23 | |
It was Anne-Marie Duff who married James McEvoy. | 0:24:23 | 0:24:27 | |
So Eggheads, your chance to take the lead. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:31 | |
The coffee plant is native to which continent? | 0:24:31 | 0:24:35 | |
THEY MUMBLE | 0:24:40 | 0:24:45 | |
I'm wondering if it's Yemen | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
because there are different varieties of coffee, aren't they? | 0:24:48 | 0:24:53 | |
And Yemen, that's Asia, isn't it? | 0:24:53 | 0:24:57 | |
I think it's Africa. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:00 | |
You think it's Africa? | 0:25:00 | 0:25:01 | |
-I think it's native to Africa, yeah. -You don't it's native? -I do. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:06 | |
OK, that's fine. | 0:25:06 | 0:25:08 | |
Well a slight difference of opinion but we're going for Africa. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:14 | |
Africa is your answer? | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
What is the difference of opinion? | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
I'm trying to work it out. Someone said Yemen. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:24 | |
I thought it came from Yemen which would make it Asia | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
but I don't know, that's just an inkling - no. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
I've gone with Africa as well. | 0:25:30 | 0:25:33 | |
Right, it was Africa. Well done, Eggheads. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:37 | |
Which means... | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
you need to get this one right, challengers, to have a chance, | 0:25:39 | 0:25:44 | |
otherwise they've won. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:45 | |
Don't get it wrong! | 0:25:45 | 0:25:47 | |
What was the name of the ginger cat | 0:25:47 | 0:25:49 | |
used in a series of public information films | 0:25:49 | 0:25:52 | |
warning children against the dangers | 0:25:52 | 0:25:55 | |
of such things as strangers and matches? | 0:25:55 | 0:25:59 | |
-Oh, dear. -I hadn't... | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
I don't think a cat'd be Benny, do you? | 0:26:12 | 0:26:14 | |
Well, there was a cat called Benny | 0:26:15 | 0:26:18 | |
in what d'you call it? | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
You know, in Tom Cat. There were a cat there called Benny. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:24 | |
-Yeah, yeah. -Benny. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:26 | |
-I'm... -I'm not sure. I'm tending to say Archie. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
I think it's Benny meself. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:33 | |
-I mean... It were at a time when Tom Cat... -Top Cat. -..was on television. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:43 | |
And there were a cat in there called Benny. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
Well, I'm not sure. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:49 | |
I can't help on that one, I'm afraid. | 0:26:49 | 0:26:53 | |
-Shall we go with Stanley, then? -Yeah, go on, we might as well. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:57 | |
-Stanley? -Yeah. | 0:26:57 | 0:26:59 | |
Jeremy, we think it's Benny. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:01 | |
I was listening. We had Archie pop in from Neil, | 0:27:01 | 0:27:05 | |
and Benny popped in from Stanley. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:07 | |
And where was Charley in all of that? | 0:27:07 | 0:27:09 | |
THEY CHUCKLE | 0:27:09 | 0:27:11 | |
-Up there! -Charley's the answer, I'm sorry to say. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:14 | |
Yes, they went, "Charley says never..." | 0:27:14 | 0:27:18 | |
I don't honestly recall that ad at all. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:22 | |
I remember my children watching them. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:25 | |
Bad luck, challengers. The Eggheads have taken it. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:28 | |
Congratulations, you have won. | 0:27:28 | 0:27:30 | |
Strong play at the start from the Terriers. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:37 | |
Then just couldn't quite sustain it. Is that fair? | 0:27:37 | 0:27:40 | |
You asked the wrong questions, Jeremy! | 0:27:40 | 0:27:43 | |
That's what they always say. | 0:27:43 | 0:27:45 | |
-It's just the luck of the draw. -That's all it came down to. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:48 | |
They always say it's the luck of the draw, but they know a lot. | 0:27:48 | 0:27:52 | |
Commiserations to you, you came on strong. | 0:27:52 | 0:27:56 | |
The Eggheads have done what comes naturally. | 0:27:56 | 0:27:59 | |
They still reign supreme over quiz land. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:01 | |
I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £3,000, | 0:28:01 | 0:28:04 | |
so the money rolls over to our next show. | 0:28:04 | 0:28:06 | |
Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you? | 0:28:06 | 0:28:09 | |
Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers | 0:28:09 | 0:28:12 | |
have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. | 0:28:12 | 0:28:15 | |
£4,000 says they don't. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
Until then, goodbye. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:19 | |
