0:00:04 > 0:00:09These five people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable
0:00:13 > 0:00:15quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers pit
0:00:27 > 0:00:30their wits against, possibly, the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:34You might recognise them, as they have won some of the country's toughest quiz shows.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37They are the Eggheads.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40Challenging our resident quiz champions today
0:00:40 > 0:00:43are the Inspectors. The team are great friends
0:00:43 > 0:00:46who all work together at RAF Henlow, in Bedfordshire.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49They like to socialise as much as they can, but this is
0:00:49 > 0:00:52rather limited by the amount of travelling they have to do. So, let's meet them.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Hello, my name's Ian.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57I'm 37 years old, and I'm a chief technician in the Royal Air Force.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00I'm Douglas, I'm 54 years old and I'm an army major.
0:01:00 > 0:01:06I'm Ian. I'm 54 and I'm also a major in the army.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Hi, I'm Greg. I'm 28 and I'm a civil servant.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13Hi, I'm Steve, I'm 39 years old, and I'm a sergeant in the army.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16So, Ian, team captain, and it's military, it's weapons,
0:01:16 > 0:01:19it's inspections... Is that right?
0:01:19 > 0:01:23The name is the Joint Arms Control Implementation Group.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27And at the end of the Cold War, there were several treaties signed between
0:01:27 > 0:01:28NATO and the former Warsaw Pact.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31We carry out snap inspections on the former Warsaw Pact,
0:01:31 > 0:01:33to ensure treaty compliance.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35- Steve, at the end, you speak Russian?- Yep.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38And you go to Russia and look at their missiles?
0:01:38 > 0:01:42Not at the minute. Because there's a political problem with the Russians.
0:01:42 > 0:01:43I wondered if that might be the case.
0:01:43 > 0:01:48So we can inspect countries that let us in and we can't inspect ones that don't?
0:01:48 > 0:01:51We inspect countries who've signed up to the treaties.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54OK. And in the middle you've got Ian Hall,
0:01:54 > 0:01:56and you're about to emigrate to South Africa?
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Yes, after 30 years, 36 years service, my time is up.
0:01:59 > 0:02:04And we've made a family decision to move, and emigrate, to South Africa in the coming months.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Let's see if we can win you something to send you on your way.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10Every day there is £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers.
0:02:10 > 0:02:15However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:15 > 0:02:20So, the Inspectors, the Eggheads won just the last game,
0:02:20 > 0:02:25which means £2,000 says you can't beat them.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28First head-to-head battle will be on the subject of Film and Television.
0:02:28 > 0:02:32Challengers, you can say who'd you like to play, and against whom?
0:02:32 > 0:02:36For Film and Television, we're nominating Greg.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Who would you like to play?
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Greg, you look suddenly confused.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44I'll take Judith, I guess.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48- He shall play Judith. - Greg is going to play Judith.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52So, Greg and Judith, to ensure there's no conferring,
0:02:52 > 0:02:56would the two of you please go now to the question room?
0:02:56 > 0:03:00Greg, your choice. Would you like the first set of questions, or the second set?
0:03:00 > 0:03:02I'll go first, if I may, please.
0:03:05 > 0:03:06So, here's your first question.
0:03:06 > 0:03:13Woody Harrelson played the barman, Woody Boyd, in which long running American sitcom?
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Well, I wasted many happy hours at university
0:03:19 > 0:03:21watching Seinfeld and Cheers.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23So I know the answer to that one...
0:03:23 > 0:03:24it's Cheers.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28Cheers is absolutely right, Greg, well done.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30First question to you, Judith.
0:03:30 > 0:03:37The philanderer Max Branning was buried alive by his wife in which soap, in March 2008?
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Well, that's my soap.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47It's EastEnders. I saw it happen, too.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51It was the most unrealistic plot line I've ever seen, really.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54You're right, it is EastEnders. And I happened to see it as well,
0:03:54 > 0:03:57and they got a lot of complaints about it.
0:03:57 > 0:03:58I should think so, yes.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02I think they call it the moment they jumped the shark.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04One-one. Next question to you, Greg.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08"That plane's dusting crops where there ain't no crops"
0:04:08 > 0:04:12is a quote from which 1959 Alfred Hitchcock movie?
0:04:17 > 0:04:20Well, my father is an Alfred Hitchcock fan...
0:04:20 > 0:04:25has most of the ones on DVD. So, North By Northwest, with Cary Grant.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Absolutely right.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Can you picture the scene, with the plane in the distance?
0:04:31 > 0:04:34Sadly, yes, I've seen it once, or many times.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Well done, you're in the lead.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Let's see if the Eggheads can keep it level.
0:04:38 > 0:04:46Judith, who starred as Gabe Cash alongside Sylvester Stallone in the 1989 film, Tango and Cash?
0:04:51 > 0:04:52Absolutely no idea.
0:04:54 > 0:04:55Er, Bruce Willis.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- I'll take that as your answer.- Yes.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01- And it is wrong. - Yes.- It was Kurt Russell.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Oh, dear!
0:05:04 > 0:05:07So, here we are. Your chance, Greg, to take the round.
0:05:07 > 0:05:15In the TV sitcom, On The Buses, what was the first name of the character played by Reg Varney,
0:05:15 > 0:05:20the subject of the catchphrase, "I hate you, Butler"?
0:05:23 > 0:05:25I don't actually know.
0:05:25 > 0:05:30I've never seen this series, so it's going to be a wild guess at Arthur.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Arthur was wrong.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35The guess was a bit too wild.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37- Yes.- It was Stan.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Did I get the quote right, there?
0:05:39 > 0:05:43- "I hate you, Butler, whaa..." - Chris, do that again for us!
0:05:43 > 0:05:45"I hate you, Butler, whaa..."
0:05:45 > 0:05:49I don't know if you could hear that, Greg, but it's priceless.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51So, Judith, your question.
0:05:51 > 0:05:56Which character is squashed by Dorothy's house in The Wizard of Oz?
0:06:03 > 0:06:05I've never seen that, either.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08I think it's the Wicked Witch of the West.
0:06:09 > 0:06:10You're wrong, Judith.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- Not again.- It's the Wicked Witch of the East.
0:06:13 > 0:06:18- Oh.- So, after that round, Judith took one point.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Greg for the challengers took two. Well done, Greg, you took on
0:06:22 > 0:06:25the might of the Eggheads and you emerged triumphant.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Good news for our challengers, the Inspectors.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31Greg, you'll be able to play in the final round today.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Let's see you both back here in the studio, please.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39So, challengers have not lost any brains from the final round.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42The Eggheads have lost their one brain. sorry, Judith.
0:06:42 > 0:06:46Next subject is Arts and Books. Who from the challengers would like to play
0:06:46 > 0:06:48at Arts and Books? And who would you like to take on?
0:06:48 > 0:06:50For this, we shall nominate Douglas.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52- Douglas?- Who do you reckon?
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- Who do you feel confident at beating? - None of them.- Ha, ha!
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- Who do you fancy? - The guy with the initials?
0:06:57 > 0:07:02I think you should take on CJ. As team coordinator, can't call myself a captain,
0:07:02 > 0:07:03I think you should take on CJ.
0:07:03 > 0:07:08CJ. So, Douglas from the Inspectors versus CJ from the Eggheads.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Again, to ensure there's no conferring, please,
0:07:11 > 0:07:14both of you, take your positions in the question room.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18So, I'm going to ask each of you three questions on Arts and Books in turn.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22Douglas, you can choose, first set of questions of second set?
0:07:22 > 0:07:23I'll go second, please.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31CJ, you have the first question. Who wrote the novel Martin Chuzzlewit?
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Tried to get through it and I really couldn't! It's Charles Dickens.
0:07:38 > 0:07:43You're right, it is Charles Dickens. First point to the Eggheads.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44Douglas, over to you.
0:07:44 > 0:07:51What name is given to ornamental work of fine gold or silver wire, formed into delicate shapes?
0:07:56 > 0:07:59Well, I haven't got a clue what quilling is,
0:07:59 > 0:08:02and verdigris is sort of a green mould.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04So I guess it's got to be filigree.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06You're correct, it is filigree. One each.
0:08:09 > 0:08:16CJ, which Irish writer whose struggles with cerebral palsy were depicted in the film My Left Foot
0:08:16 > 0:08:21wrote the poetry collection, Come Softly To My Wake and the novel Wild Grow The Lilies?
0:08:26 > 0:08:29Yeah, the portrayal in My Left Foot won Daniel Day-Lewis
0:08:29 > 0:08:31his first Oscar. And it was Christy Brown.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35It was Christy Brown. Well done, CJ.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40Douglas, here's your next question. Shakespeare's play Othello
0:08:40 > 0:08:44is set in Venice and on which Mediterranean island?
0:08:48 > 0:08:49Well, it's not Corsica,
0:08:49 > 0:08:52and I believe it's going to be Cyprus or Crete.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Because that was when the Venetians were fighting the Turks...
0:08:58 > 0:09:01I think it's Cyprus, I think it's Cyprus.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05You're bang on, Douglas, well done.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Very impressive reasoning there.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11OK, CJ, your third question.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15The Cider House Rules is a 1985 novel by which American author?
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Such a relief to have the options.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Because I wouldn't have remembered without it. John Irving.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27It is John Irving, CJ, well done.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30So if you don't get this right, Douglas,
0:09:30 > 0:09:33you will be eliminated from the final round.
0:09:33 > 0:09:39Your question... Elephant Song, Warlock and When The Lion Feeds, are novels by which author?
0:09:45 > 0:09:48They all have an African theme, and Wilbur Smith wrote about Africa.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50So I'm going for Wilbur Smith.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53You're absolutely right to go for Wilbur Smith.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56That is the correct answer, Douglas, well done.
0:09:56 > 0:09:5836 years in the Army,
0:09:58 > 0:10:01and you've obviously still had time to read a lot of books.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02My wife reckons I read too much.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04Don't do enough around the house.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06It's serving you very well now.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09So after three questions each the scores are level.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12They're both doing brilliantly, three each. We go to Sudden Death.
0:10:12 > 0:10:17CJ, who became the shortest male dancer ever to be admitted
0:10:17 > 0:10:20to the Royal Ballet School when he joined in 1966?
0:10:20 > 0:10:23I'd have to assume that's Wayne Sleep.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27That is Wayne Sleep. You're quite right.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32So, Douglas, you're in the Sudden Death zone here.
0:10:32 > 0:10:38The stakes are high. Which European art gallery takes its name from the Italian for offices?
0:10:40 > 0:10:43An escritoire, something like... something to do with a desk.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47So I'm guessing it's the Escorial, outside Madrid.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49That's where I'm going for.
0:10:49 > 0:10:53It's not the Escorial, it's actually...
0:10:53 > 0:10:57Let's just before, before I give the answer, let's see if CJ knows.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58I'd imagine it's the Uffizi.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00In which city?
0:11:00 > 0:11:01Florence.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Florence, it is, yeah.
0:11:03 > 0:11:04The Uffizi in Florence.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Italian.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09- Yeah.- European art gallery. Thank you, Douglas, well done...
0:11:09 > 0:11:13but bad luck, you were beaten by our Egghead. So, as a result, Douglas,
0:11:13 > 0:11:15you won't be able to help your team in the final round.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19Would you both please come back, and join your team-mates?
0:11:19 > 0:11:22I hope I don't sense a mood of doom on the Inspectors?
0:11:22 > 0:11:27- You didn't want to lose, Douglas, did you?- No. No, I did not.- Ha, ha!
0:11:27 > 0:11:32So, as it stands, the challengers have lost one brain from the final round.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34The Eggheads have also lost one brain.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37The next subject is Sport. Sport, challengers,
0:11:37 > 0:11:40who wants to play this? And against whom?
0:11:40 > 0:11:43- We don't know what's coming next. - Are you happy with Sport?- Yes.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46- Go on, then. Yeah. - I'll take that one please, Jeremy.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49Ian, you want to take it. And who looks vulnerable?
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Who's cracking under the pressure?
0:11:51 > 0:11:55I'll take the lead and challenge Kevin, please.
0:11:55 > 0:11:56Kevin, you want to do Sport?
0:11:56 > 0:11:58Don't think I've got much choice in the matter!
0:11:58 > 0:12:00You're right! You have no choice.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03It's Ian from the Inspectors versus Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Please take your positions in the question room.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10Ian, you can choose the first or second set of questions.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12I'll go first please, Jeremy.
0:12:15 > 0:12:16So, here we go.
0:12:16 > 0:12:22Which famous racehorse was buried by the winning post at Aintree, after his death in 1995?
0:12:26 > 0:12:29I didn't think Desert Orchid was dead yet, so I'll rule him out.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33And Aintree's most famously linked with Red Rum, for his three-time win.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35So, I'll go for Red Rum, please.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37You're spot on, well done.
0:12:37 > 0:12:38Red Rum it is.
0:12:41 > 0:12:46Kevin, in Grand Slam tennis tournaments, a men's single's match is played over how many sets?
0:12:49 > 0:12:53Could go on a bit if it was best of nine. It's best of five.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Quite right, Kevin. It is best of five.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58Back to you, Ian.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01Which British boxer added the WBO belt
0:13:01 > 0:13:08to the WBA and WBC cruiserweight titles he already held,
0:13:08 > 0:13:13when he defeated Enzo Maccarinelli in March 2008?
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Well, boxing isn't one of my strong points.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25The only one of those three names I've heard of is David Haye,
0:13:25 > 0:13:28known as the Hayemaker, I think. So I'm ruling out the other two.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30I'm going to go for David Haye.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Brilliant guess, if it was a guess.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38You're quite right, it is David Haye. Next question, Kevin.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41William Fox-Pitt has represented Great Britain in which sport?
0:13:44 > 0:13:47He's an equestrian man, Jeremy. It's three-day eventing.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Quite right, Kevin. So it's neck and neck still/
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Eggheads, two. Challengers, two.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Third question. Here we go, Ian.
0:13:56 > 0:14:01The athlete CJ Hunter, who was crowned shot put world champion in 1999,
0:14:01 > 0:14:04married which sportswoman the previous year?
0:14:09 > 0:14:13I'm ruling out Kelly Holmes, because I don't think she's married.
0:14:15 > 0:14:20Maria Mutola, I think she's an 800 metre runner,
0:14:20 > 0:14:21and Marion Jones, a sprinter.
0:14:21 > 0:14:26Not because of sport, but I think because of events off the track,
0:14:26 > 0:14:29I think I've heard his name linked with Marion Jones.
0:14:29 > 0:14:30Well, done, Ian, you're right.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34It was Marion Jones who was married to the athlete CJ Hunter.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38So, Kevin, pressure on you, now.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42Let's see if the challengers can strike a blow against the Eggheads.
0:14:42 > 0:14:47Here's your question. Which team became the first Asian winners of the Cricket World Cup in 1983?
0:14:50 > 0:14:52I think they were the first ones,
0:14:52 > 0:14:55apart from Australia, to win it, as well. It's India.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Again, total certainty, and you're right, Kevin. Well, done. India.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01So, Eggheads, three. Challengers, three.
0:15:01 > 0:15:02You're level-pegging,
0:15:02 > 0:15:05which means we now go on to Sudden Death.
0:15:05 > 0:15:06- Are you ready, Ian?- Yes.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Doing well.
0:15:08 > 0:15:14Which British sportswoman won gold at the Cycling World Championships in March 2008,
0:15:14 > 0:15:19four years after she won an Olympic silver medal in rowing?
0:15:19 > 0:15:24There is one name from the Cycling World Cup that springs to mind.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Her surname was Pendleton, I think.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30I'm struggling with the first name.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33I think it was Victoria Pendleton.
0:15:33 > 0:15:38That's wrong. It was Rebecca Romero.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41She won gold at the 2005 Rowing Championships.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47- Unusual to do two sports at that level. - Apparently never liked rowing.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50And so she switched over to cycling, for that reason.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Although she was good at rowing, she'd never liked it.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54And who's Victoria Pendleton?
0:15:54 > 0:15:57She's a gold medal cyclist.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59- So, on the right track?- Yes, yes.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01- As it were.- Absolutely, as it were.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04- A close stab. - A close stab, Ian. Not all lost yet,
0:16:04 > 0:16:08remember, because Kevin still has to get this right. Let's see he does.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Kevin, which rugby league team, based in the French town of Perpignan,
0:16:11 > 0:16:15took part in the Super League for the first time in 2006?
0:16:15 > 0:16:19They're doing very well. It's the Catalans Dragons.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21It is the Catalans Dragons.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Well done, Kevin.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Ian, you were beaten by our Egghead.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28As a result, you can't help your team in the final round.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32So, would you both please come back, join your team-mates.
0:16:32 > 0:16:36So, as it stands, the Challengers have lost two brains from the final round.
0:16:36 > 0:16:41While the Eggheads have lost one brain. The last subject is Music.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Who from the Challengers will play Music?
0:16:43 > 0:16:45And who do you want to play against?
0:16:45 > 0:16:47We shall send in the other Ian for this one.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50If you must.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Who would you like to play, Chris or Daphne?
0:16:54 > 0:16:59- Chris, please.- OK. - So, Ian, and you're about to emigrate to South Africa?
0:16:59 > 0:17:02- I am indeed.- If it all goes wrong, you can just leave the country.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Yes, no retributions.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07It's Ian from the Inspectors versus Chris from the Eggheads.
0:17:07 > 0:17:13To ensure there is no conferring, would you please take your positions in the question room.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15I'll ask each of you three questions on Music in turn.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18Ian, you have the choice. Do you want the first or second set?
0:17:18 > 0:17:21I'd like to go second please, Jeremy.
0:17:24 > 0:17:31So, Chris, what was the title of the1978 UK Number One hit single for The Village People?
0:17:36 > 0:17:40Well, SOS. was by ABBA. DISCO was Mattawan,
0:17:40 > 0:17:42so it's YMCA.
0:17:42 > 0:17:43It's fun to stay at the YMCA.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45You're right.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48- Was it Ottawan?- Ottawan, yeah.
0:17:48 > 0:17:53- Did you say Mattawan?- No, Ottawan. O-T-T-A-W-A-N.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56OK, well, you're right about YMCA anyway.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58First blood to you.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03Ian, in which section of an orchestra would you find the flute?
0:18:06 > 0:18:09I don't think it's percussion,
0:18:09 > 0:18:11because I don't think you hit a flute.
0:18:11 > 0:18:17I don't think it's brass. Therefore I will go for woodwind, please.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19You're right, it is woodwind.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23And you definitely don't hit a flute, if you want it to work.
0:18:25 > 0:18:32Chris, who was presented with an Outstanding Contribution to Music Award at the 2008 Brits ceremony?
0:18:37 > 0:18:42I don't think Paul McCartney was in very good odour at the time.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45And I don't think Sting's been presented with anything.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49But, sort of an elder statesman of guitar rock, I'd say it would be
0:18:49 > 0:18:53Eric Clapton. So that would be my answer, Eric Clapton.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55You're wrong. It wasn't Eric Clapton, Chris.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58- It was Paul McCartney.- Was it? - He was obviously in better odour
0:18:58 > 0:19:02than you remember. Maybe you're mixing him up with his ex-wife?
0:19:02 > 0:19:03- Possibly, yeah.- Not easily done.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07- Not these days.- So, Paul McCartney won the Outstanding Contribution to
0:19:07 > 0:19:11Music and that means, Ian, you have a chance to pull away now.
0:19:11 > 0:19:19Which musician won five Grammy awards in 2002, for her debut album, Songs in A Minor?
0:19:20 > 0:19:27Was it Alicia Keys, Rihanna or Mary J Blige?
0:19:27 > 0:19:32My daughter will be sitting at home, screaming out the answer.
0:19:32 > 0:19:37I'm not in the least certain as to which one it is.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40But I think it's Alicia Keys.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Why do you think it's Alicia Keys?
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Because I like the sound of her name.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Ha, ha, ha!
0:19:49 > 0:19:54You're right, it was Alicia Keys.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57So, two to the challengers.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02Chris, what name is given to the style of jazz
0:20:02 > 0:20:07that was pioneered by Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie, in the 1940s?
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Scat, bebop or Dixieland?
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Well, Dixieland is the original New Orleans jazz.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16And Scat is a vocal style, so it's bebop.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18It is bebop, Chris, well done.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Ian, win this
0:20:20 > 0:20:22and you've got the round.
0:20:22 > 0:20:28With whom did Prince duet on the 1980s UK hit singles,
0:20:28 > 0:20:30The Arms of Orion, and You Got the Look?
0:20:36 > 0:20:40I'm not completely certain,
0:20:40 > 0:20:45but I believe Prince had some form of relationship with Sheena Easton.
0:20:45 > 0:20:49And therefore, I'm going to plump for her.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53You're right, it was Sheena Easton.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55Brilliant bit of guesswork there,
0:20:55 > 0:21:00on the Alicia Keys and the Sheena Easton. And that means, Ian,
0:21:00 > 0:21:03that you've taken on one of the Eggheads and emerged triumphant.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06So, very good news for our challengers, the Inspectors.
0:21:06 > 0:21:11So, you, Ian, will be able to play in today's final round. Congratulations on that.
0:21:11 > 0:21:15So, please both come back and rejoin your team-mates.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17So, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20It's time for the final round, which as always is General Knowledge.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23But I'm afraid those who lost their head-to-heads
0:21:23 > 0:21:25can't take part in this round.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28So, Ian and Douglas from the Inspectors,
0:21:28 > 0:21:30and Chris and Judith from the Eggheads,
0:21:30 > 0:21:33would you please now leave the studio?
0:21:33 > 0:21:37Ian, Greg and Steve, you are playing to win the Inspectors £2,000.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41Daphne, CJ and Kevin, you are playing for something which money can't buy...
0:21:41 > 0:21:44the Eggheads' reputation.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:21:47 > 0:21:51This time the questions are all General Knowledge and you are allowed to confer.
0:21:51 > 0:21:58The Inspectors, the question is, are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three?
0:21:58 > 0:22:03Ian, Greg and Steve, you can choose the first set or the second set... You say?
0:22:03 > 0:22:05- Going to go first?- First set, yeah.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07- First.- We'd like to go first please, Jeremy.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12So, here we go.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16The Penguin and The Joker are arch enemies of which superhero?
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Batman.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23- Sure?- Yeah, I've seen the films.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26- All agreed?- Yeah. - We're all agreed, it's Batman.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29You're quite right, it is Batman.
0:22:29 > 0:22:33- In the military, you love your superheroes?- Absolutely.
0:22:33 > 0:22:34First question for the Eggheads.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Jim Henson was the creator of which TV characters?
0:22:42 > 0:22:44It's about your lookalike, so go on.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47- They're the Muppets.- You're right.
0:22:47 > 0:22:48Is CJ being mean to you?
0:22:48 > 0:22:51- Yes.- Not unjustly!
0:22:51 > 0:22:53I don't think you look like a Muppet, OK?
0:22:53 > 0:22:55In that outfit.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59Your second question, Inspectors.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03The lev is the unit of currency in which country?
0:23:07 > 0:23:10- It's definitely Bulgaria. - You sure? Certain?
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Yup, definitely.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16OK. We're all agreed that it is Bulgaria.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20It is Bulgaria. Steve, you said that with conviction, you've been there?
0:23:20 > 0:23:23I have. It was a long time ago but I can remember.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25How many levs to the £?
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- It was millions. - Was it?- I needed the calculator.
0:23:28 > 0:23:34You're right. The lev is the Bulgarian unit of currency.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37Eggheads, the Roman goddess, Ceres,
0:23:37 > 0:23:40was a deity principally associated with what?
0:23:42 > 0:23:44The Roman goddess, Ceres,
0:23:44 > 0:23:47was a deity principally associated with what?
0:23:47 > 0:23:50That would be crops, agriculture.
0:23:50 > 0:23:55It is crops and it is Ceres, and well done, you're right.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58Neck in neck in our final round, here.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01Inspectors, how you feeling? Is it getting to you?
0:24:01 > 0:24:03No. Feeling fine, thank you.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06And, by the way, if you win, we're going to pay you in levs.
0:24:08 > 0:24:12Which unpopular politician was directly responsible
0:24:12 > 0:24:14for the expansion of motorways in the UK,
0:24:14 > 0:24:17the introduction of premium bonds,
0:24:17 > 0:24:20trunk telephone calls, parking meters, traffic wardens
0:24:20 > 0:24:22and yellow line parking restrictions?
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Who was that person?
0:24:30 > 0:24:32It was the 1950s, wasn't it, the motorways?
0:24:32 > 0:24:35- He was obviously a very unpopular man.- Yeah.
0:24:35 > 0:24:36It's not Roy Mason,
0:24:36 > 0:24:41because Roy Mason was the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47Wilfred Paling, I've never heard of.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50The guy I think it is, is Ernest Marples.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54- I don't know.- I don't know either, so go with your choice.
0:24:54 > 0:25:00I've got a sneaking suspicion that I remember Marples
0:25:00 > 0:25:04doing something with motorway roads, when I was, sort of, a teenager.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06So, we're going to plump for Ernest Marples.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Great logic, it is Ernest Marples.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Well done.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Your team-mates are applauding behind you.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17We call him unpopular but some of those things sounded OK...
0:25:17 > 0:25:20- The premium bonds and all that? - I've never won one, so...
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Yeah, they're unpopular if you don't win.
0:25:22 > 0:25:27Eggheads, which photographer shot a series of pictures of Marilyn Monroe
0:25:27 > 0:25:29in 1962, six weeks before her death,
0:25:29 > 0:25:33that have collectively come to be known as the Last Sitting?
0:25:36 > 0:25:38- Bert Stern.- I think I know...
0:25:38 > 0:25:43Which photographer shot a series of pictures of Marilyn Monroe in 1962,
0:25:43 > 0:25:46six weeks before her death, that have collectively come
0:25:46 > 0:25:49to be known as the Last Sitting?
0:25:49 > 0:25:53Bert Stern's the only one I know definitely photographed her.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Do we know the other two did, or not?
0:25:55 > 0:25:59I don't think Helmut Newton did. He was famous for his male nudes.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02- Stern was the one right before her death?- Yeah, yeah.
0:26:02 > 0:26:06- Let's go for that. We know he did her.- Think so, yeah.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08Bert Stern.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12Bert Stern is the correct answer. Well done, you got it right.
0:26:12 > 0:26:17So, Eggheads, three, challengers, three. Scores are level.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19Doing well, challengers.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21We go now to Sudden Death.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23And remember, to make it that bit harder,
0:26:23 > 0:26:27these questions are not multiple choice. Here we go, Inspectors.
0:26:27 > 0:26:33Who played the title role in Ron Shelton's 1994 film, Cobb,
0:26:33 > 0:26:37a biopic of the baseball player, Ty Cobb? Who played the title role
0:26:37 > 0:26:40in Ron Shelton's 1994 film, Cobb,
0:26:40 > 0:26:44a biopic of the baseball player, Ty Cobb?
0:26:44 > 0:26:47- Never even seen it.- Not a film I've seen.- Never heard of it.
0:26:47 > 0:26:52- Haven't seen it.- 1994, 14 years ago.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54It's not Kevin Costner, is it?
0:26:54 > 0:26:55No, he was in Field of Dreams.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58I'm struggling. Who else was famous in that time?
0:26:58 > 0:27:02- 1994?- It wouldn't have been Stallone or Schwarzenegger.
0:27:02 > 0:27:07And it wouldn't have been Willis. Kurt Russell?
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Harrison Ford?
0:27:09 > 0:27:13No, I don't think Harrison Ford's a sports fan. Could be wrong, though.
0:27:13 > 0:27:17We'll just have to guess. Say again?
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Patrick Swayze or Kurt Russell, or something?
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Kurt Russell?
0:27:22 > 0:27:27- With no degree of certainty, Jeremy, we're going to say...- Kurt Russell?
0:27:27 > 0:27:29- Yeah, why not.- Kurt Russell.
0:27:29 > 0:27:33It's not Kurt Russell, it's Tommy Lee Jones.
0:27:33 > 0:27:39To take the contest, which English county hosts the world-famous
0:27:39 > 0:27:42Cooper's Hill cheese rolling contest, which sees participants
0:27:42 > 0:27:46chase a large lump of cheese down a 200-yard slope each May?
0:27:46 > 0:27:51Well, I live in the West Country, so it's always on the news.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53And if you see them rolling down...
0:27:53 > 0:27:55Oh, sorry, it's Gloucestershire.
0:27:55 > 0:28:00But, I mean, they ought to hurt themselves more badly than they do.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04- Is your answer Gloucestershire? - Yes.- Our answer is Gloucestershire.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Eggheads, well done, you've won.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16Great quizzing, Inspectors. Brilliant logic and guesswork,
0:28:16 > 0:28:19all combined, and knowledge, too. Commiserations to you,
0:28:20 > 0:28:23the Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them,
0:28:23 > 0:28:25and they still reign supreme over quizland.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £2,000.
0:28:28 > 0:28:31Which means that the money rolls over to the next show.
0:28:31 > 0:28:33Eggheads, congratulations.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35Who on earth will beat you?
0:28:35 > 0:28:38Join us next time to see if the new challengers
0:28:38 > 0:28:40have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43£3,000 says they don't.
0:28:43 > 0:28:44Till then, goodbye.
