These people are among the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:040:00:08

Together, they make up The Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:090:00:15

The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:160:00:20

Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:230:00:26

pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:260:00:30

You might recognize them as they've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.

0:00:300:00:35

And challenging our resident quiz champions today

0:00:350:00:38

are the Northern Lights from West Yorkshire.

0:00:380:00:41

They all work in insurance

0:00:410:00:42

and decided that, because they all live up north and are quite bright,

0:00:420:00:47

Northern Lights would be a good team name. Let's meet them.

0:00:470:00:50

Hi, I'm Rich. I'm 29 and I'm a claims validation team leader.

0:00:500:00:54

Hi, I'm Rachel. I'm 29 and I'm a marketing team leader.

0:00:540:00:58

Hi, I'm Nick. I'm 33 and I'm also a claims validation team leader.

0:00:580:01:02

Hi, I'm Caroline. I'm 25 and I'm a customer relations consultant.

0:01:020:01:06

Hi, I'm Chris. I'm 32 and I'm a claims consultant.

0:01:060:01:10

-So, welcome Northern Lights.

-Thank you.

0:01:100:01:12

-Good to have you here, Rich. I know you're a fan of the show.

-I am, yes.

0:01:120:01:15

-And beside you is your twin, Rachel.

-Yes she is.

-Hi.

0:01:150:01:18

Non-identical, but born, obviously, at the same moment.

0:01:180:01:21

-That's right, yeah.

-In fact which is older?

0:01:210:01:23

Rachel's older by two minutes.

0:01:230:01:24

And you don't work for the bank that Rich works for,

0:01:240:01:27

-but you're in finance as well?

-Yes.

-So all financial services?

-Mmm.

-Yes.

0:01:270:01:33

Rich, I gather you had an award from your work colleagues for Most Vain Person? Can you explain that?

0:01:330:01:39

I take pride in my appearance and, you know, I like clothes,

0:01:390:01:44

I like nice things and I look in the mirror every now and again, so...

0:01:440:01:48

CJ's not playing today, is he?

0:01:480:01:51

I thought exactly the same.

0:01:510:01:53

-I was thinking it's the kind of award he'd be quite jealous of, wouldn't he?

0:01:530:01:56

Couldn't stand the competition!

0:01:560:01:58

-That's right, he's left the building.

-He's run a mile.

0:01:580:02:01

Good luck! I know you're fans of the programme and wish you well.

0:02:010:02:05

Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.

0:02:050:02:09

If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:090:02:12

So, Northern Lights, the Eggheads have won the last four games

0:02:120:02:15

which means £5,000 says you can't beat them.

0:02:150:02:19

First head to head battle is on the subject of Film & Television.

0:02:190:02:23

-That's you, then, yes?

-Definitely.

0:02:250:02:28

-Go for it, Chris.

-Go on, Chris.

-Who would you like to play?

0:02:280:02:31

How about, maybe, Barry?

0:02:330:02:35

-Barry?

-Yeah, we could try Barry.

-Yes, try Barry.

0:02:350:02:39

OK, it's Chris from the Northern Lights against Barry from the Eggheads, on Film & TV.

0:02:390:02:45

To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.

0:02:450:02:49

Good luck in this round. I'm going to ask each of you

0:02:490:02:52

three multiple choice questions on Film & TV in turn.

0:02:520:02:54

Whoever answers most questions correctly is the winner.

0:02:540:02:57

Chris, your choice. Would you like the first or the second set?

0:02:570:03:00

Uh... The first set, please.

0:03:000:03:02

Chris. Janet Ellis and Mark Curry were part of the Blue Peter presenting team in which decade?

0:03:050:03:10

If I'm thinking of Blue Peter,

0:03:130:03:15

they'd be pretty much my era and certainly Simon Groom.

0:03:150:03:19

I don't know if they were with him at the time, but...

0:03:190:03:23

So, I'm going to say the '80s cos that's when I was growing up.

0:03:230:03:27

The '80s is right. Well done.

0:03:270:03:30

Over to you, Barry.

0:03:320:03:33

What's your record on film and TV? I can't remember.

0:03:330:03:36

Poor, but I'm hoping it'll get better.

0:03:360:03:39

The religious travelogue show Highway was regularly presented by which former member of The Goons?

0:03:390:03:45

I don't recall having watched this, but the only one there

0:03:490:03:54

that seems plausible at all must be Harry Secombe.

0:03:540:03:56

So that's my answer, Harry Secombe.

0:03:560:03:58

Absolutely right, it's Harry Secombe.

0:03:580:04:01

Your question, Chris.

0:04:020:04:03

In which month is the Cannes Film Festival usually held?

0:04:030:04:08

March I'm pretty sure is the Oscars, or tends to be.

0:04:120:04:15

August...

0:04:150:04:18

The only thing I can think of there

0:04:180:04:21

is that Cannes would probably be too hot in August for everybody.

0:04:210:04:24

So I'm going to go for May.

0:04:240:04:25

And May is completely right.

0:04:250:04:27

Well done, you've got it! Playing well.

0:04:270:04:29

Barry, which animated character regularly appeared with Tony Hart

0:04:310:04:35

in various children's TV series?

0:04:350:04:37

It was the wonderfully wicked Morph and his friend Chav.

0:04:420:04:46

Was his friend called Chav?!

0:04:460:04:48

-Chas, I think.

-A first recorded use!

-Not much difference.

0:04:480:04:53

A first recorded use of that word would have been interesting.

0:04:530:04:55

Yes, you're right. Morph is the correct answer.

0:04:550:04:58

That brings you level after two questions.

0:04:580:05:01

So, Chris, keep the pressure on with this one.

0:05:010:05:03

For what type of business did Michael Douglas and Demi Moore work in the 1994 film Disclosure?

0:05:030:05:08

OK, I think the film might have been based on a Michael Crichton novel.

0:05:140:05:19

And I think he's written novels that are based

0:05:230:05:26

in at least two of those industries.

0:05:260:05:30

But for some reason, I think it's a computer company.

0:05:300:05:34

You're right, computer company it is. Three out of three!

0:05:340:05:38

Barry, over to you.

0:05:380:05:40

Which actor directed the 1998 Sandra Bullock film drama Hope Floats?

0:05:400:05:45

Gosh.

0:05:500:05:52

Hope Floats. It's one that passed me by completely.

0:05:520:05:57

It doesn't ring a bell with Denzel Washington

0:05:570:06:00

though I know he has started directing movies.

0:06:000:06:03

For some reason I don't think it's Morgan Freeman.

0:06:030:06:06

So, without any real conviction, I'm going to go for Forest Whitaker.

0:06:060:06:10

But the logic was good. It is Forest Whitaker. Well done.

0:06:100:06:12

Three each, over to you. Sudden death now, Chris.

0:06:120:06:17

So not multiple choice - these questions, that bit harder.

0:06:170:06:21

The 1980s TV show, Tucker's Luck was a spin-off from which TV series?

0:06:210:06:26

Grange Hill.

0:06:260:06:28

Grange Hill is right.

0:06:280:06:31

Over to you, Barry.

0:06:320:06:33

Which 1949 film musical features three sailors

0:06:330:06:37

named Gabey, Chip and Ozzie, seeking excitement and romance in New York?

0:06:370:06:41

Ooh, 1949?

0:06:410:06:45

The only one that comes to mind is Anchors Away.

0:06:470:06:51

-Anchors Away is your answer?

-It is.

0:06:510:06:53

-It's not that, it's called... Eggheads?

-On The Town.

0:06:530:06:55

On The Town is correct.

0:06:550:06:57

Should have known that one.

0:06:570:06:59

Daphne is running through the cast, let's get this.

0:06:590:07:02

Frank Sinatra...

0:07:020:07:04

-Gene Kelly, wasn't it?

-..and Jules Munshin.

0:07:040:07:07

Oh, Gene Kelly?

0:07:070:07:10

Gene Kelly, yup.

0:07:100:07:11

Well, that means, Barry,

0:07:120:07:14

you've lost in this category.

0:07:140:07:16

Starting to maybe be a dangerous category for you.

0:07:160:07:18

-That's interesting as we're building up Barry's profile.

-Don't tell everyone!

0:07:180:07:22

They'll start picking on Film & TV.

0:07:220:07:24

Well done, Chris. You beat an Egghead and did it in a convincing way as well.

0:07:240:07:28

Good news for our challengers -

0:07:280:07:29

you will play in the final round.

0:07:290:07:31

Do both of you come back and rejoin us here in the studio.

0:07:310:07:35

As it stands, the challengers have lost no brains from the final round.

0:07:350:07:39

The Eggheads have lost one brain.

0:07:390:07:40

Our next subject is history.

0:07:400:07:42

History, challengers?

0:07:420:07:44

History... Caroline?

0:07:440:07:46

I think I'd better go for it, guys.

0:07:460:07:49

-Go on.

-Are you confident?

-I'm really confident.

0:07:490:07:52

OK, who do you want to take on? You can't take Barry.

0:07:520:07:55

Barry's very good on History, actually, but that's irrelevant now!

0:07:550:07:59

-Daphne?

-Can we take Daphne on at History, please?

0:07:590:08:04

Daphne. OK, the sort of beguiling charm can be misleading, here.

0:08:040:08:10

She wears those shoes that villain in James Bond wore - the ones with the points in them.

0:08:100:08:14

-No, I haven't got them on today.

-Oh, you haven't got them on today?

0:08:140:08:17

-What was the name of that person?

-Rosa Klebb.

-Rosa Klebb. OK,

0:08:170:08:22

So it's Caroline from Northern Lights against Rosa Klebb...

0:08:220:08:26

Sorry... Daphne from the Eggheads.

0:08:260:08:28

To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.

0:08:280:08:32

Good luck, Caroline. And good luck, Daphne.

0:08:320:08:35

I don't mean to worry Caroline but played 45 History and lost...

0:08:350:08:39

how many, Daphne?

0:08:390:08:41

-Twice?

-Twice, OK.

0:08:410:08:45

I'll ask each of you three questions on History.

0:08:450:08:48

-Caroline, the first or second set of questions?

-First, please.

0:08:480:08:51

Which is the only surname that's been shared by a US president and a UK prime minister?

0:08:540:08:59

Um... I don't really have any idea. It's not the kind of thing that

0:09:040:09:09

I've got a lot of knowledge on.

0:09:090:09:11

So, I'm going to have to guess

0:09:110:09:16

and I'm going to go with Wilson.

0:09:160:09:19

Do your team like that answer?

0:09:190:09:21

They like it here.

0:09:210:09:22

It's right. Wilson is correct.

0:09:220:09:25

Could this be number three, Daphne?

0:09:250:09:28

Which historical figure is credited with coming up with the idea of Britain's Great Exhibition of 1851?

0:09:280:09:35

Oh, that's Prince Albert.

0:09:400:09:42

Correct.

0:09:430:09:45

Back to you, Caroline.

0:09:450:09:48

1886 saw the founding of the city of Johannesburg after the discovery of what in the area?

0:09:480:09:54

Johannesburg, um...

0:09:590:10:01

I don't think it's gold

0:10:040:10:08

because I haven't heard of a gold rush to Johannesburg

0:10:080:10:11

and I don't think it's aluminium for some reason,

0:10:110:10:14

so I'm going to go with oil.

0:10:140:10:15

Oil is your answer.

0:10:150:10:17

Could we have guessed this from the name Johannesburg?

0:10:170:10:20

No, it's after a person, is it?

0:10:200:10:23

It's on the Witwatersrand which is the "great gold-bearing reef".

0:10:230:10:27

-Yeah, it's gold, Caroline.

-Oh.

0:10:270:10:30

They went there for gold.

0:10:300:10:33

So, Daphne,

0:10:330:10:34

what nationality was Trygve Lie, the first secretary general of the United Nations,

0:10:340:10:38

elected on the 1st of February 1946?

0:10:380:10:42

Oh... I have this problem.

0:10:460:10:49

I read so much so mentally I sort of pronounce things

0:10:490:10:54

and I've always pronounced it mentally as Trig-vee Lee.

0:10:540:10:57

But he's Norwegian.

0:10:570:10:59

He is Norwegian.

0:10:590:11:01

-And it's a "he" as well, yes?

-Yes.

0:11:010:11:03

And it's spelt, T-R-Y-G-V-E and then L-I-E.

0:11:030:11:07

-Yes.

-Well done, Daphne.

0:11:070:11:10

So you need this question now, Caroline,

0:11:100:11:12

to stay in with a chance of being in the final. Good luck.

0:11:120:11:16

Whom did Pope Benedict XV canonize in May 1920?

0:11:160:11:22

Um... Again, I haven't got a clue,

0:11:280:11:32

so I suppose I'll have to have a guess.

0:11:320:11:36

I think I'll go with Francis of Assisi.

0:11:380:11:42

I don't really know why.

0:11:420:11:44

OK, that's wrong, I'm afraid.

0:11:440:11:46

It was Joan of Arc who was canonized 90 years ago.

0:11:460:11:51

So, bad luck. You won't be in the final. Daphne, you will.

0:11:510:11:55

Another notch for your bedpost or wherever it is you put them.

0:11:550:11:58

-Not on the bedpost.

-Somewhere I'm sure, though. Very strong on History.

0:11:580:12:03

Please both of you come back and rejoin your team-mates.

0:12:030:12:06

As it stands, the challengers have lost one brain from the final round.

0:12:060:12:09

The Eggheads have lost one brain as well. Next subject is Sport.

0:12:090:12:13

Which one of you wants this?

0:12:130:12:14

The dreaded Sport!

0:12:140:12:16

Have you not got a sporting person?

0:12:160:12:18

Yes, that was me.

0:12:180:12:20

Oh, it was you! What went wrong?

0:12:200:12:22

I think you, Rach, reluctantly.

0:12:230:12:25

Very reluctantly.

0:12:250:12:28

Reluctantly, Rachel's going to take sport.

0:12:280:12:30

So, Rachel against which Egghead?

0:12:300:12:33

Judith doesn't really like sport, does she?

0:12:330:12:35

-I'm thinking Judith.

-Although she's better.

0:12:350:12:37

-I still think I'll choose Judith.

-You're going to choose me?

-Yes.

0:12:370:12:42

OK, Rachel from the Northern Lights against Judith from the Eggheads.

0:12:420:12:46

To ensure there's no conferring, please go to the question rooms.

0:12:460:12:49

I'm going to ask you three questions on Sport.

0:12:490:12:51

Rachel, you can choose the first or second set.

0:12:510:12:54

I'd like to go for the second, please.

0:12:540:12:56

Here we go, Judith. What name is typically given to the facilities

0:12:590:13:02

for athletes at the Olympic Games?

0:13:020:13:04

Oh, that's the Olympic Village.

0:13:080:13:10

It is. You're right. Well done.

0:13:100:13:13

Over to you, Rachel. Good luck.

0:13:130:13:15

Which Midland's city gives its name to a sporting contest between rival teams in the same district?

0:13:150:13:21

I believe it's a Derby.

0:13:270:13:29

Is that your answer?

0:13:300:13:32

When Manchester United play Manchester City,

0:13:320:13:34

I know they call it the local derby.

0:13:340:13:36

You're right. 100 per cent.

0:13:370:13:39

Judith, in which sport is the term "borrow" often used when judging how to play a shot?

0:13:410:13:46

I'm trying to think of a sentence to put it in.

0:13:510:13:53

Does a commentator say it on the radio or something?

0:13:530:13:56

Or the television?

0:13:560:13:58

I'm sure it's not tennis. I've never heard it in tennis

0:13:580:14:02

and that's the only game out of those three that I've played.

0:14:020:14:05

What could you borrow? I absolutely don't... I don't understand it.

0:14:070:14:11

But it's a guess.

0:14:110:14:14

I'm going to say golf.

0:14:140:14:17

Golf is the correct answer.

0:14:170:14:19

The "borrow" is the way the ball is lying.

0:14:190:14:21

-It's the run of the green.

-The run of the green.

0:14:210:14:23

OK. So it's nothing to do with borrowing and lending?

0:14:230:14:26

Borrowing a racquet? No.

0:14:260:14:27

-No. Can I borrow your racquet?

-No, you can't!

0:14:270:14:30

Rachel, your question.

0:14:300:14:32

The coach of which national team at Euro 2008 proposed to his girlfriend

0:14:340:14:38

live on air, moments after his team had been knocked out?

0:14:380:14:42

I have no idea. I don't even know who any...

0:14:460:14:52

I know that the manager of the Croatian team looks quite scary.

0:14:520:14:55

I can't imagine him having a girlfriend cos he looks so scary!

0:14:550:14:58

I don't know anything about Austria.

0:15:000:15:02

I don't even know if they were in the Euros.

0:15:020:15:04

And I don't know the age of the French manager either.

0:15:040:15:08

I can't even picture who he is.

0:15:080:15:10

I'm going to go for France, on the basis that it is a complete guess.

0:15:100:15:17

It was France. You're right.

0:15:170:15:18

So, two each.

0:15:210:15:24

Go to our third question, now.

0:15:240:15:26

Not a foot wrong so far. Judith, your question.

0:15:260:15:28

Which men's tennis player is known as "the magician" for his deft strokeplay on court?

0:15:280:15:33

The Magician.

0:15:390:15:42

Um... I don't know.

0:15:420:15:45

I think...

0:15:450:15:47

Let's try Sebastian Grosjean.

0:15:470:15:50

No, it wasn't. It was Fabrice Santoro.

0:15:500:15:53

Your question now, Rachel.

0:15:530:15:56

If you get this right, you're in the final and you've knocked Judith out.

0:15:560:15:59

Knocked an Egghead out. Way to go. Here we go.

0:15:590:16:03

Which famous Australian cricketer did Richie Benaud call "the best captain never to lead Australia"?

0:16:030:16:09

I don't think I've heard of any of the names, although for some reason

0:16:140:16:20

Don Bradman's standing out to me.

0:16:200:16:23

I'm going to discard Ray Lindwall.

0:16:260:16:28

I have no idea why.

0:16:280:16:30

I'm going to go with Don Bradman, go down the middle.

0:16:320:16:36

Don Bradman is wrong. It's Keith Miller.

0:16:360:16:39

Oh... Oh, dear.

0:16:390:16:40

So, locked at two points each, we go to Sudden Death on Sport.

0:16:400:16:43

Judith, that's the sort of thing you really enjoy, isn't it?

0:16:430:16:46

Multiple choice is gone. I need the answer from you on these.

0:16:460:16:50

Judith, here's your question. Sudden Death.

0:16:500:16:53

Who is the only non-British manager to have won the League and FA Cup double

0:16:530:16:58

in top-flight English football?

0:16:580:17:00

Arsene Wenger.

0:17:050:17:06

Is correct.

0:17:060:17:07

-Where did that come from?

-God knows! I think it came from Dermot,

0:17:070:17:11

cos he's an Arsenal fan and he goes on and on and on about...

0:17:110:17:15

Wenger is right.

0:17:150:17:17

OK, Rachel. Your question now to stay in it.

0:17:190:17:24

Which Scottish snooker player is nicknamed the Wizard of Wishaw?

0:17:240:17:28

Um... There's no snooker players coming to mind,

0:17:310:17:34

so I'm going to have to take a stab at one.

0:17:340:17:36

And I wouldn't even know the nationality.

0:17:360:17:38

The only person I can think of is Stephen Hendry,

0:17:420:17:45

who I know is definitely Scottish but I don't think it was Stephen Hendry.

0:17:450:17:49

Um... I have no idea and a complete stab in the dark,

0:17:490:17:55

I am going to go for Mark Williams.

0:17:550:18:01

I think your brother knows the answer.

0:18:010:18:04

-He probably does.

-Higgins.

-John Higgins is the answer... from Rich.

0:18:040:18:09

So, sorry. Sudden Death

0:18:090:18:11

and you've been knocked out, Rachel.

0:18:110:18:13

You ran her close, though.

0:18:130:18:15

Judith, you are in the final after a successful round on Sport!

0:18:150:18:19

We will put up flags and bunting.

0:18:190:18:20

So both of you please come back and rejoin your teams.

0:18:200:18:24

So, the challengers have lost two brains from the final round,

0:18:260:18:30

while the Eggheads have lost one brain.

0:18:300:18:32

The last subject is Food & Drink, so it's going to be Rich or Nick on this.

0:18:320:18:36

We know it's probably not going to be Rich!

0:18:360:18:38

-This is my least favourite subject.

-I'll do it.

0:18:380:18:40

-Are you happy to do food and drink?

-I'll do it.

-OK, Nick...

0:18:400:18:43

Nick. Decisive. Suddenly, just straight in.

0:18:430:18:46

Considering Richard only eats chips.

0:18:460:18:48

Well, there might be a question on chips.

0:18:480:18:50

It wouldn't be three questions on chips. Which Egghead?

0:18:500:18:53

-Try Kevin cos no-one's...

-Shall we try Kevin?

0:18:530:18:57

-Kevin?

-Kevin or Chris.

-Shall we give it a go?

0:18:570:18:59

OK, we're going to go with Kevin.

0:18:590:19:01

So, Nick from the Northern Lights against Kevin from the Eggheads.

0:19:010:19:04

To ensure there's no conferring...

0:19:040:19:06

Yes, surprise.

0:19:060:19:07

Your reputation has spread. Please take your positions.

0:19:070:19:10

Last round before the final. I'm going to ask each of you three questions on Food & Drink.

0:19:120:19:16

Nick can choose the first or second set.

0:19:160:19:18

Let's go first please, Jeremy.

0:19:180:19:21

Clotted cream is particularly associated with which area of the UK?

0:19:240:19:29

Clotted cream I am sure isn't Scotland.

0:19:340:19:39

I'm pretty sure it's not the North-East.

0:19:390:19:43

I'm gonna go South-West, please.

0:19:430:19:46

And you're right with South-West.

0:19:460:19:49

South-West is correct.

0:19:490:19:50

Kevin, Souvlaki is a dish consisting of pieces of meat

0:19:510:19:54

grilled on a skewer from the cuisine of which country?

0:19:540:19:57

Souvlaki is Greek. So, Greece.

0:20:010:20:03

That's right. Greece is right.

0:20:030:20:05

Nick, your question.

0:20:060:20:08

Which cocktail reputedly invented by a count in Florence

0:20:080:20:13

is traditionally made with one part gin, one part sweet vermouth and one part Campari?

0:20:130:20:18

So, I'm pretty sure it's not Bellini because that's a Champagne...

0:20:240:20:30

See, Martini... I'm trying to remember what James Bond gets

0:20:320:20:35

when he don't like it stirred and all that,

0:20:350:20:38

but I'm thinking Negroni because it's kind of Italian-sounding.

0:20:380:20:42

I'm pretty sure it's not Martini,

0:20:420:20:44

so let's go for Negroni.

0:20:440:20:47

-Team-mates? You like that?

-We think we like that, yeah.

0:20:470:20:51

Yeah, they've said yes, and I can say yes, too.

0:20:510:20:53

Negroni is the right answer.

0:20:530:20:55

Kevin, what kind of dish was a hodge-podge?

0:20:570:21:00

I think it's just hodge-podge, as the term's come into

0:21:040:21:08

the general language for a mixture of things all put in together. So, stew.

0:21:080:21:13

And stew is completely right.

0:21:130:21:15

Third question, Nick.

0:21:160:21:17

You're playing well. Good luck.

0:21:170:21:19

The Thai dish Gai Hor Bai Toey consists of pieces of fried chicken wrapped in what?

0:21:190:21:25

OK, so I'm not thinking leaves.

0:21:290:21:33

I'm gonna just get rid of leaves.

0:21:330:21:35

I seem to... I associate Asian cooking more with seaweed.

0:21:350:21:39

And pastry, I'm not too sure what filo pastry is,

0:21:410:21:45

but it sounds nice.

0:21:450:21:48

It's Thai. I'm going to say seaweed because that seems more Thai to me

0:21:500:21:54

than filo pastry. So we'll go seaweed.

0:21:540:21:56

Seaweed is wrong, actually. And you shouldn't have ruled out leaves.

0:21:560:22:03

OK, your question now, Kevin.

0:22:030:22:06

Third question for the round and a place in the final.

0:22:060:22:09

What name is given in some parts of France

0:22:090:22:12

to a wine of the most superior grade or the vineyard that produces it?

0:22:120:22:17

Different regions have different ways of classifying,

0:22:220:22:26

but Burgundy, for instance, as well as some others,

0:22:260:22:30

for their top grades they use the designation Grand Cru.

0:22:300:22:33

So, it'll be that.

0:22:330:22:36

It will be that and it is. Correct.

0:22:360:22:38

So, Kevin, well done. And Nick, you were beaten by our Egghead

0:22:380:22:42

which means you won't help your team in the final round I'm sorry to say.

0:22:420:22:45

Both of you please come back to the studio.

0:22:450:22:48

This is what we've been playing towards.

0:22:480:22:50

It's time for the Final Round which is General Knowledge.

0:22:500:22:53

But those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:22:530:22:55

won't be allowed to take part in this round.

0:22:550:22:58

So Rachel, Nick and Caroline from the Northern Lights

0:22:580:23:01

and Barry from the Eggheads, please leave the studio.

0:23:010:23:04

Rich and Chris, here we are.

0:23:050:23:07

You're playing to win the Northern Lights £5,000.

0:23:070:23:10

Daphne, Chris, Judith and Kevin, are playing for something money can't buy -

0:23:100:23:13

the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:130:23:15

As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.

0:23:150:23:18

This time the questions are all General Knowledge.

0:23:180:23:20

You are allowed to confer.

0:23:200:23:22

Northern Lights, the question is, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?

0:23:220:23:26

So, Rich and Chris, first or second?

0:23:260:23:29

-First worked all right for me.

-OK, we'll go first, please.

0:23:290:23:32

Which work by Shakespeare do actors superstitiously refer to as "the Scottish play"?

0:23:350:23:40

-Macbeth's the only Scottish one...

-Yes, it's definitely Macbeth.

0:23:430:23:47

We're thinking that would be Macbeth, the Scottish play.

0:23:470:23:50

That's right, they don't like to say the word "Macbeth", do they?

0:23:500:23:53

Your question, Eggheads.

0:23:530:23:56

What type of road safety features are the puffin and toucan?

0:23:560:24:00

They're various types of pedestrian crossings.

0:24:030:24:06

Quite right.

0:24:070:24:09

Over to you...

0:24:090:24:12

Northern Lights.

0:24:120:24:13

Which 1980s pop star won an award

0:24:130:24:15

for best courtyard garden at the Chelsea Flower Show in 2005?

0:24:150:24:21

Kim Wilde is a horticulturalist now, so it's gonna be...

0:24:250:24:29

I wouldn't have thought Kate Bush, she's quite reclusive.

0:24:290:24:32

Um, Toyah Wilcox...

0:24:320:24:35

I can imagine she'd be quite...

0:24:350:24:38

I'm sure she does something else other than her pop career,

0:24:380:24:41

but I'd be lying if I could tell you what it is.

0:24:410:24:43

-Kim Wilde is definitely a gardener.

-Yeah, she's definitely a gardener.

0:24:430:24:46

And she fits in. They're all obviously quite 80s, but...

0:24:460:24:49

-Are you thinking Kim Wilde?

-Yeah.

0:24:490:24:52

We're both aware that Kim Wilde is known now for gardening,

0:24:520:24:58

so we'll go for Kim Wilde.

0:24:580:25:00

OK, and you were born, I'm thinking, about 1980, you guys?

0:25:000:25:04

-A little bit earlier than that.

-Late '70s.

0:25:040:25:08

So you missed out Kim Wilde's pop career?

0:25:080:25:11

-I had the albums.

-Did you?

0:25:110:25:13

-There's one called Close, I believe.

-OK.

0:25:130:25:15

But you've caught up correctly with the later part of her career.

0:25:170:25:20

She is a gardener, it is Kim Wilde.

0:25:200:25:22

Well done, you're right.

0:25:220:25:24

Eggheads, in poetry,

0:25:240:25:26

what does the word "gloaming" mean?

0:25:260:25:28

"Roaming in the gloaming by the bonny banks of Clyde". It's the twilight.

0:25:300:25:39

Twilight is right.

0:25:390:25:41

Third question now. This could be crucial.

0:25:410:25:43

You need to get this right, keep the pressure on.

0:25:430:25:45

Northern Lights, for what does the letter "V" stand, in the computer abbreviation VOIP?

0:25:450:25:50

HE MOUTHS

0:25:540:25:56

VOIP. Hang on.

0:25:570:26:00

You could have Voice Operated something, something...

0:26:000:26:03

Yeah.

0:26:030:26:05

I can't think they would have an acronym for a virus.

0:26:050:26:11

Not necessarily something that would be common. If it was...

0:26:120:26:17

-If I'm thinking... No, you wouldn't, they'd just have daft names.

-Yeah.

0:26:170:26:21

Could we just get the question again?

0:26:210:26:24

For what does the letter "V" stand in the computer abbreviation VOIP?

0:26:240:26:28

Computer abbreviation?

0:26:300:26:33

Is it language? If it's a language a virus isn't a language, right,

0:26:330:26:37

so we can count that out.

0:26:370:26:38

Voice? I don't think computer is necessarily...

0:26:380:26:41

Well, a computer isn't going to be relying on a voice to run it.

0:26:410:26:45

So...virtual, then. You can set up a computer to run a virtual model

0:26:450:26:53

of something and it could perhaps use a language to run that model.

0:26:530:26:57

I'll go with whatever you go with. I'm not convinced either way.

0:26:570:27:01

Virtual, by a very poor combination of process of elimination and guess.

0:27:010:27:07

You started out with the right kind of logic.

0:27:070:27:09

It's Voice Over Internet Protocol.

0:27:090:27:12

So it's voice, it's not virtual.

0:27:120:27:14

Third question wrong, let's hope it's not terminal.

0:27:140:27:18

Eggheads, as what were the ancient Athenians

0:27:200:27:23

Kallikrates and Iktinos well-known in their time?

0:27:230:27:26

Architects. Yeah. They were architects, Jeremy.

0:27:290:27:32

If you get this question right, you've taken the money away

0:27:320:27:36

from our great challengers here.

0:27:360:27:39

You're sure about that, are you?

0:27:390:27:40

-They're responsible for the Parthenon.

-It's always a bad sign

0:27:400:27:43

when you say the answer while I'm still reading the question,

0:27:430:27:46

before you see the choices.

0:27:460:27:49

Architects is correct.

0:27:490:27:50

Congratulations, Eggheads, you've won.

0:27:500:27:53

Commiserations to you. The Eggheads have done

0:27:580:28:00

what comes naturally to them. They still reign supreme over quiz land.

0:28:000:28:03

I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £5,000

0:28:030:28:07

which means that the money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:070:28:10

Eggheads, who will beat you?

0:28:100:28:12

Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers

0:28:120:28:14

have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:140:28:17

£6,000 says they don't.

0:28:170:28:19

Till then, goodbye.
