0:00:04 > 0:00:09These five people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:15Together, they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where five quiz challengers pit their wits
0:00:27 > 0:00:30against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33You might recognise them, as they are goliaths
0:00:33 > 0:00:38in the world of TV quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Taking on the awesome might of our quiz goliaths today
0:00:40 > 0:00:43are the Duckenders from Northamptonshire,
0:00:43 > 0:00:50the majority of the team live in the same cul-de-sac called Duck End and they form a local quiz team
0:00:50 > 0:00:56who have been competing in the Banbury and Oxford quiz league for over 15 years. Let's meet them!
0:00:56 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Trevor, 62, a retired airline pilot.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Terry, I'm 59, and I'm a company director.
0:01:03 > 0:01:08Hello, I'm Clive, I'm 60 and I'm a retired European IT project manager.
0:01:08 > 0:01:13Hello, I'm Bruce, I'm 68 and I'm a retired teacher.
0:01:13 > 0:01:18Hi, I'm John, I'm 58 and I'm a retired HR director.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20So, Trevor, it's Duck End, for three of you at least?
0:01:20 > 0:01:25Yes. Small village called Hinton in the Hedges, just half way between Oxford and Northampton.
0:01:25 > 0:01:31- And you are mainly retired, all bar one of you?- Poor old Terry is still working unfortunately!
0:01:31 > 0:01:35- Are you retiring soon, Terry? - Not for at least another five years.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37- Maybe on your winnings from tonight!- Maybe!
0:01:37 > 0:01:40- But you keep busy and you keep quizzing?- Yes.
0:01:40 > 0:01:46Let's see how you do. Every day, there is £1000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:50 > 0:01:55So, Duckenders, the Eggheads have won the last eight games,
0:01:55 > 0:01:59which means £9,000 says you can't beat them.
0:01:59 > 0:02:04Now the first head-to-head battle will be on the subject of Politics. Challengers,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07decide which of you reads newspapers every morning
0:02:07 > 0:02:09in your retirement or in your work time.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Who wants to take on the Egghead and which Egghead?
0:02:12 > 0:02:15- Which one do we go for? - Which one do you want to go for?
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Bruce? Do you want to have a go at it?
0:02:18 > 0:02:22- Bruce?- Or whoever he is! - Yes, yes.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- OK.- Bruce, retired teacher, you've got all five to choose from.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Who do you want to have a pop at?
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Who do you reckon?
0:02:30 > 0:02:35- Stunned silence!- Chris? - Chris, please.- Chris!
0:02:35 > 0:02:39So it is Bruce from the Duckenders versus Chris from the Eggheads.
0:02:39 > 0:02:45To ensure there is no conferring, would you please both take your positions in the question room?
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- Bruce, you were a secondary school teacher?- I was, for many years.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53And now you train doctors to make speeches, tell us about that?
0:02:53 > 0:02:57Well, it's a presentation skills job and when they have a conference,
0:02:57 > 0:02:59and they want some last-minute preparation,
0:02:59 > 0:03:05we restructure and tell them how to speak loudly and clearly, like I am trying to do now.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09I'm thinking speeches, politicians, you're almost in that zone?
0:03:09 > 0:03:15- Oh, dear.- I would love to think, I would love to think!- You seemed to crumple for a second there.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19Let's see how you do! I will ask each of you three multiple-choice questions on Politics in turn.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22Whoever answers the most correctly is the winner
0:03:22 > 0:03:26and, Bruce, you have the choice of the first or second set of questions.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28I'll go first, please.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34What was the name of the one-time friend of Monica Lewinsky
0:03:34 > 0:03:39who secretly taped their conversations and passed the information on to Kenneth Starr?
0:03:46 > 0:03:48I don't know the answer to this question,
0:03:48 > 0:03:52but I have sort of got a feeling that Paula Jones and Kathleen Willey
0:03:52 > 0:03:56are a little bit obvious, so I am going for Linda Tripp.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Linda Tripp is the correct answer!
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Bruce, well done.
0:04:03 > 0:04:08Your question, Chris. What is the first middle name of Tony Blair?
0:04:16 > 0:04:20Well, just on the euphony of the thing, Anthony Charles sounds better
0:04:20 > 0:04:24than Anthony Peter or Anthony Phillip, so I'll say it's Charles.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28- You're quite right. Anyone want to go on the third?- Linton.- Linton.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32Anthony Charles Linton Blair. That's right! Bruce, back to you.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36The Texan congressman Charlie Wilson is best known for aiding which country
0:04:36 > 0:04:41in their fight for independence from the Soviet Union in the 1980s?
0:04:46 > 0:04:51Well, Poland and Romania may have been under the Soviet heel as it were
0:04:51 > 0:04:53but I think the only war that took place against them
0:04:53 > 0:04:57was in Afghanistan, so I am going for Afghanistan.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00Spot on, yes, well done!
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Chris, your question.
0:05:04 > 0:05:09Likud and Kadima are two of the political parties in which country?
0:05:13 > 0:05:16They are two of the political parties in the Knesset in Israel.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20Quite right, too! Two barnstorming performances here, no lack of
0:05:20 > 0:05:22certainty at all on these answers.
0:05:22 > 0:05:262-2. Bruce, your third question.
0:05:26 > 0:05:33Of whom did the Labour MP Tony Banks once remark, "If he became a funeral director, people would stop dying"?
0:05:37 > 0:05:41You couldn't say it about John Major, because he was such a nice bloke!
0:05:41 > 0:05:46And I don't think Iain Duncan Smith had the sort of capacity
0:05:46 > 0:05:52to stir up such emotion and I think it was the man of the night,
0:05:52 > 0:05:54or something of the night about him, Michael Howard.
0:05:54 > 0:05:59It is impeccable logic, but you are wrong.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01It was actually John Major.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07Chris, if you take this, you have taken Bruce out of the final round.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10There's a lot riding on it, here's your question.
0:06:10 > 0:06:16Who succeeded John Reid as Secretary of State for Defence in May 2006?
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Well, I used to know a Des Browne, but it wasn't him,
0:06:25 > 0:06:28but the name does ring a bell, so I will say Des Browne.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Is that the only name that rings a bell?
0:06:30 > 0:06:32It's the only one that I know, yeah.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36I think he did take over defence, Des Browne, yeah, yeah.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Either through luck or wisdom, you're quite right.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Well done. It was Des Browne.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44And, Bruce, you were beaten there by our Egghead,
0:06:44 > 0:06:49so, as a result, you won't be able to help your team in the final round. Bad luck!
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Would you please both come back and join your teams?
0:06:52 > 0:06:57- Well, the upside there, Bruce, is we have a quote for our collection, haven't we?- Absolutely!
0:06:57 > 0:07:01"If he became a funeral director, people would stop dying." Bad luck.
0:07:01 > 0:07:06The challengers have lost one brain from the final round, while the Eggheads have not lost any brains.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09The next subject is Music.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Who from the challengers wants to go on music?
0:07:11 > 0:07:16- Me!- Terry, that was immediate, you were press-ganged there suddenly!
0:07:16 > 0:07:22- He volunteered!- Now, do you sense any weakness on this team on music?
0:07:22 > 0:07:26- Oh, that's a point, isn't it? Um...- You can't have Chris.
0:07:26 > 0:07:32And if you've watched the programme a lot, you'll know that's a shame!
0:07:32 > 0:07:36- Have a go at Daphne.- I've been advised by my captain, who watches
0:07:36 > 0:07:40this programme extensively, that I should choose Daphne.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42- All right, so, Terry...- Oh, dear! - She doesn't like that!
0:07:42 > 0:07:46- She doesn't like that!- Good sign. - You'll be surprised!
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Terry from the Duckenders versus Daphne from the Eggheads.
0:07:49 > 0:07:55Once again, to ensure there is no conferring, would you please take your positions in the question room?
0:07:55 > 0:07:58I am going to ask each of you three questions on Music in turn. Terry,
0:07:58 > 0:08:01would you like the first set of questions or the second set?
0:08:01 > 0:08:03I'd like the first, please, Jeremy.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09- And you're a big Dillon fan, I gather?- Yes, very much so.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Let's see if he comes up.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15You've Got To Pick A Pocket Or Two is a song from which musical?
0:08:19 > 0:08:21And that would be Oliver!
0:08:21 > 0:08:24That would be right, well done!
0:08:26 > 0:08:32Very subdued clapping here, maybe because they all knew it!
0:08:32 > 0:08:38Daphne, who recorded the 1992 single I Will Always Love You,
0:08:38 > 0:08:42which spent 10 weeks at number 1 in the UK charts?
0:08:47 > 0:08:49I am hoping it is Whitney Houston.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52What are you basing that on?
0:08:52 > 0:08:56Do you know, I think I've actually heard it!
0:08:56 > 0:09:00- You've actually heard the song? - Yes.- What, by accident or...?
0:09:00 > 0:09:04No, actually it is a very pleasant romantic song.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08And you are right, it was Whitney Houston!
0:09:08 > 0:09:11It was used as the theme from
0:09:11 > 0:09:13- the Houston film The Bodyguard. - That's right, The Bodyguard.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17- OK, Terry, here we go, question 2, are you ready?- Yes.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Frideric was the middle name of which composer?
0:09:24 > 0:09:29I don't think it would be Copland, that was American.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32So it is between Holst and Handel,
0:09:32 > 0:09:36I think I will go for Handel.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Quite right, Terry, well done! Second point to you!
0:09:42 > 0:09:47Who was the lead singer, Daphne, of the Liverpool band Echo and the Bunnymen?
0:09:49 > 0:09:53No-one is laughing through here! No-one's laughing, it's very serious!
0:09:59 > 0:10:04I think...said she...
0:10:04 > 0:10:07it's Ian Broudie.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10- You think it is Ian Broudie? - Tell me I'm right!
0:10:10 > 0:10:14It would do so much for your street cred if you were right,
0:10:14 > 0:10:16- but it is Ian McCulloch.- Is it?
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- So who is Ian Broudie? - Isn't that Lightening Seeds?
0:10:19 > 0:10:22- Lightning Seeds, yes, that's where I got it from.- Yeah.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26- Ian McCulloch, Echo and the Bunnymen.- Sorry!
0:10:26 > 0:10:29That's all right! So if you get
0:10:29 > 0:10:31this question right, Terry, you have done it.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34What type of instrument is the mellophone?
0:10:39 > 0:10:46I don't think it's a drum, er... is it a horn or a keyboard?
0:10:47 > 0:10:51I will go for a keyboard.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Are you basing that on a record you have heard or anything?
0:10:54 > 0:10:57I am basing it on the fact that I have heard of it,
0:10:57 > 0:11:02but if I've heard it, it is more likely to be a keyboard than a horn.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05- It's a horn.- Oh...
0:11:05 > 0:11:10Is that, you Duckenders, is that the instrument they use at the start
0:11:10 > 0:11:12of Strawberry Fields or is that something else?
0:11:12 > 0:11:16- Was it a mellotron or something? - Mellotron.- That's a different thing?
0:11:16 > 0:11:22All right, Terry, Daphne is still in it. Daphne, this question is yours.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26The Symphony of a Thousand and The Titan Symphony
0:11:26 > 0:11:30are popular titles of works by which composer born in 1860?
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Now that's what I call music!
0:11:37 > 0:11:39It's Mahler.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42You are right, it is Mahler.
0:11:42 > 0:11:43Well done!
0:11:43 > 0:11:46So after three questions, you each
0:11:46 > 0:11:49have 2 points, scores are level, we go on to sudden death,
0:11:49 > 0:11:53and to make it that bit harder, Terry, as you probably know,
0:11:53 > 0:11:58you have to give me the answer without multiple choice.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02Terry, the Gershwin songs Swanee and My Mammy
0:12:02 > 0:12:07were signature tunes of which entertainer born in 1886?
0:12:07 > 0:12:10I think that would be Al Jolson.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12You are right, it was!
0:12:15 > 0:12:18Can I have one like that? LAUGHTER
0:12:18 > 0:12:21- No.- No?- Daphne...- Why not?
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Because he just had it!
0:12:23 > 0:12:30Who sang with George Michael on the 1999 UK hit single which was called As?
0:12:30 > 0:12:34- As?- Spelt A-S.- Oh!- As.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38As I don't know the answer, I'll have to, um...
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Oh, dear.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51- You can guess.- Yes, I am going to have a guess, I think he
0:12:51 > 0:12:56recorded something with Catherine Zeta-Jones, so I'll go with that.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00I am afraid you're wrong, Daphne, it was Mary J Blige.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Originally a Stevie Wonder song. So...
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Terry, well done!
0:13:05 > 0:13:07You took on one of the Eggheads and you emerged triumphant!
0:13:07 > 0:13:11Good news for our challengers here, the Duckenders,
0:13:11 > 0:13:15because it means Terry will be able to play in today's final round, congratulations.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19Both of you, please come back and join your team mates.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22OK, as it stands, the challengers have lost one brain
0:13:22 > 0:13:26from the final round, but the Eggheads have also lost one brain.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Next subject is Food and Drink.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Who from the challengers will be playing in this round
0:13:32 > 0:13:35and tell us who you would like to take on?
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Well, we are waiting for Geography to come up.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Yes, we are. Are you any good on Food and Drink?
0:13:45 > 0:13:47- No.- We need Clive for Science. - Are you, then?
0:13:47 > 0:13:52- I don't mind, but I'm no good at it! - I'll have a go at it.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56- I'll do this one, Jeremy.- OK. Trevor, it was John saying I am no good at it.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00- LAUGHTER - Sort of forced your hand slightly!
0:14:00 > 0:14:02Well, we are on Plan B now, OK!
0:14:02 > 0:14:05Plan B? Well, it's not bad for this stage, I tell you!
0:14:05 > 0:14:07We've had Plan D by this stage before! Which Egghead?
0:14:07 > 0:14:11- Food and Drink.- Kevin?
0:14:11 > 0:14:15We reckon Kevin has only got one tiny weakness,
0:14:15 > 0:14:17it might be Food and Drink, so I'll have a pop at Kevin.
0:14:17 > 0:14:22- OK. CJ, Kevin or Judith was the choice, you want Kevin.- Yes.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25Kevin, I can tell you, does not own a working oven!
0:14:25 > 0:14:27LAUGHTER
0:14:27 > 0:14:33So, Trevor, from the Duckenders, Kevin from the Eggheads,
0:14:33 > 0:14:38to ensure there's no conferring, please go and take your positions in the question room.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42Trevor, it is multiple choice, three questions and you have
0:14:42 > 0:14:46the choice of going with the first or the second set of questions.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48I'd like to go first.
0:14:51 > 0:14:56Trevor, what is the principal ingredient of a traditional black pudding?
0:15:00 > 0:15:04Well, coming from Lancashire, if I didn't know the answer to that,
0:15:04 > 0:15:05I'd have had to be shot.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09It's blood, the traditional ingredient of black pudding.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12You are right, well done! It is blood.
0:15:15 > 0:15:20Kevin, which aromatic herb has a flavour similar to that of aniseed?
0:15:24 > 0:15:27I think, of those...
0:15:29 > 0:15:31..I would go for tarragon.
0:15:31 > 0:15:32Would you now?
0:15:32 > 0:15:36Well, I don't actually know it, so I am going for tarragon.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38You are right, it is tarragon!
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Question 2 to Trevor.
0:15:41 > 0:15:46Piri piri is an African name for which kind of ingredient?
0:15:50 > 0:15:53Well, it is not sweet potato and I don't think it is corn,
0:15:53 > 0:15:56it's a chilli spice that the Portuguese use
0:15:56 > 0:15:59on their chicken, actually, piri piri chicken.
0:15:59 > 0:16:03Chilli is the correct answer, well done!
0:16:06 > 0:16:11Kevin, feta cheese is traditionally made from the milk of which animal?
0:16:14 > 0:16:17I should say a sheep, Jeremy.
0:16:17 > 0:16:22You are right, it is a sheep. A very succinct round this.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25Going to the answers straight away. Two points apiece.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Let's see whether you can clinch it, Trevor.
0:16:28 > 0:16:33In Turkey, what is ayran? Which is spelt A-Y-R-A-N.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42Interesting.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44I don't think it is a yoghurt drink, um...
0:16:47 > 0:16:53I've never heard the, um... the expression, actually,
0:16:53 > 0:16:59Um, so a guess between chickpea tart and spiced bread. Um...
0:17:01 > 0:17:04I'll go for spiced bread.
0:17:05 > 0:17:09It is not spiced bread, it is yoghurt drink, actually,
0:17:09 > 0:17:11ayran in Turkey.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13So, Kevin...
0:17:13 > 0:17:16you could win the round with this question.
0:17:16 > 0:17:21At which restaurant did Gordon Ramsey work under head chef Marco Pierre White in the mid-1980s?
0:17:28 > 0:17:31I... I don't know it.
0:17:31 > 0:17:37I associate both Le Gavroche and Dell'Ugo with other people.
0:17:37 > 0:17:42So I am thinking, this is not my final definite answer at the moment,
0:17:42 > 0:17:44I am thinking Harvey's, but let me just have a...
0:17:44 > 0:17:49Le Gavroche is to do with the Rouxes, I think, and Dell'Ugo
0:17:49 > 0:17:51is to do with Anthony Worrall-Thompson.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54So Harvey's.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- Harvey's is your answer?- Yes.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01You are right, Kevin, it is Harvey's.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Well done, Kevin. Trevor, sorry,
0:18:03 > 0:18:08you were beaten by our Egghead and won't be able to help your team in the final round.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:18:11 > 0:18:15As it stands, the challengers have lost two brains from the final round
0:18:15 > 0:18:17whilst the Eggheads have lost only one brain.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21The last subject is Arts and Books.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Who from the challengers wants to take on an Egghead?
0:18:24 > 0:18:26John? John is happy with that?
0:18:26 > 0:18:29John, it's you. Retired HR director.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32- That's right.- Against? You pick!
0:18:34 > 0:18:35CJ?
0:18:35 > 0:18:37CJ. CJ, I think.
0:18:37 > 0:18:43OK, it is John from the Duckenders versus CJ from the Eggheads.
0:18:43 > 0:18:49And to ensure there is no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.
0:18:49 > 0:18:54John, you can choose whether you have the first or the second set of questions. Go ahead.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56I'll go first, please.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02John, which American author and Nobel Prize winner nicknamed Papa
0:19:02 > 0:19:06was a noted devotee of fishing, big game hunting and bull fighting?
0:19:11 > 0:19:16I think, with the big game fishing, I do know that Ernest Hemingway
0:19:16 > 0:19:20lived in Cuba for a while, so I think the answer is Hemingway.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Quite right, it was Ernest Hemingway.
0:19:25 > 0:19:32CJ, Allan Quartermain is the central character in which classic adventure story first published in 1885?
0:19:37 > 0:19:40I think he is in King Solomon's Mines.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47You sound like you're thinking, but I take that as your answer.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49- Am I right to? - You are absolutely right.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Your answer is correct, well done!
0:19:54 > 0:20:01John, Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are Going? is an 1897 work by which artist?
0:20:08 > 0:20:13I don't actually know the answer to this, I do not think it is Monet,
0:20:13 > 0:20:19I think the answer to this question may be Duchamp.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23I am sorry, it is wrong, it is Gauguin.
0:20:24 > 0:20:28CJ, next question. In a much quoted first line,
0:20:28 > 0:20:33Robert Herrick's poem To The Virgins to Make Much of Time
0:20:33 > 0:20:37suggests doing what "While Ye May"?
0:20:44 > 0:20:47This is an instances where I am just going to ignore the question
0:20:47 > 0:20:51and pick the one of I've heard of, which is "Gather ye Chestnuts".
0:20:51 > 0:20:54"Gather ye Chestnuts" is wrong, it is "Gather ye Rosebuds".
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Next question to you, John.
0:20:58 > 0:21:03The Box of Delights is a children's book by which British writer?
0:21:09 > 0:21:15Again, one I'm not sure of, I don't think it will be Philip Larkin...
0:21:18 > 0:21:23..which probably leaves us with John Betjeman or John Masefield.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27Of those two, I would suspect John Betjeman
0:21:27 > 0:21:31might have been the more likely to have written a children's book.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33So John Betjeman.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36It is the wrong answer, it is John Masefield.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39So, CJ, you can take the round if you get this right.
0:21:39 > 0:21:45Dora Maar, Francoise Gilot and Marie-Therese Walter
0:21:45 > 0:21:50were three of the many lovers of which painter?
0:21:55 > 0:21:59Dora Maar was famously the person who took the photographs
0:21:59 > 0:22:03chronicling the procedure when Guernica was being painted
0:22:03 > 0:22:06and helped Picasso fill in the little lines on the horse.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08It's Pablo Picasso.
0:22:08 > 0:22:12CJ, you are right, it was Pablo Picasso. You take the round.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Well done. John, you were beaten by our Egghead.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18As a result, you won't be able to help your team in the final round,
0:22:18 > 0:22:22so would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:22:22 > 0:22:24So this is what we have been playing towards.
0:22:24 > 0:22:28It is time for the final round which as always is General Knowledge.
0:22:28 > 0:22:29But I am afraid those
0:22:30 > 0:22:32who lost your head-to-heads won't take part.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35So, Trevor, Bruce and John from the Duckenders
0:22:35 > 0:22:40and Daphne from the Eggheads, would you please leave the studio?
0:22:40 > 0:22:45Terry and Clive, you are playing to win the Duckenders £9,000.
0:22:45 > 0:22:50Judith, Kevin, CJ and Chris, you are playing for something which money can't buy -
0:22:50 > 0:22:55the Eggheads' reputation. As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59The questions are General Knowledge and you are allowed to confer.
0:22:59 > 0:23:05Duckenders, the question is are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:23:05 > 0:23:08Terry and Clive, would you like to go first or second?
0:23:08 > 0:23:11- First?- Yes.- First.- We would like to carry on going first.
0:23:15 > 0:23:20In Greek mythology, who was given ass's ears for saying that Apollo's music was inferior to Pan's?
0:23:24 > 0:23:26In Greek mythology, who was given ass's ears
0:23:26 > 0:23:30for saying Apollo's music was inferior to Pan's?
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Zeus? It couldn't have been Zeus, could it?
0:23:33 > 0:23:36He was the king of the guards.
0:23:38 > 0:23:43Midas was the guy who touched everything and it went to gold.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45And Jason was the guy who wandered off
0:23:45 > 0:23:49looking for the fleece, the Argonauts.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51- I think it might be Zeus? - Do you?
0:23:51 > 0:23:54- Yes.- I really don't know, so I think it is your call.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Well, that's the other two.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02- What are you thinking? - Well, we are thinking...
0:24:02 > 0:24:04We are both thinking different things!
0:24:04 > 0:24:09- Oh, I see! We've ruled one out? - It's whether Zeus,
0:24:09 > 0:24:12as king of the gods, would be told to wear ass's ears.
0:24:13 > 0:24:17- Which is... - Which is a bit dubious.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21But I don't remember Jason on his travels wearing ass's ears.
0:24:21 > 0:24:25Midas really was just turned everything to gold.
0:24:25 > 0:24:29- I think I'd end up with Zeus from that.- OK.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31We'll go with Zeus.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35Zeus was given ass's ears, you say? You are wrong.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37It was Midas.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41As in the Midas touch,
0:24:41 > 0:24:46but that was different. Same guy, different incident.
0:24:46 > 0:24:51Eggheads, Iona is part of which group of islands?
0:24:59 > 0:25:04It's Inner Hebrides. That is the Inner Hebrides.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07Well done, Judith you are right.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Your second question, Duckenders.
0:25:09 > 0:25:14In December 2007, it was announced that the Royal Family of which country
0:25:14 > 0:25:20was to be abolished after the establishment of a new constituent assembly?
0:25:25 > 0:25:27In December 2007, it was announced
0:25:27 > 0:25:30that the Royal Family of which country was to be abolished
0:25:30 > 0:25:36after the establishment of a new constituent assembly?
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Well, Holland has still got a Royal Family, haven't they?
0:25:38 > 0:25:40- And so have Spain.- So have Spain.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45And Nepal had the trouble with the prince.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49- Yes, I would think it must be Nepal, mustn't it?- Yes.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51We're saying Nepal.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55You're quite right, it is Nepal. One point to you.
0:25:57 > 0:26:02The American John Kenneth Galbraith was best known for his work in which area, Eggheads?
0:26:06 > 0:26:07Economics.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10The American John Kenneth Galbraith was best known
0:26:10 > 0:26:13- for his work in which area? - That was...
0:26:13 > 0:26:17- There is not much conferring going on!- No, we've done it already.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19It was like a nanosecond you conferred for.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22- We knew this one. - The vibes swim round.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25- You confer by conduction! - Yes, exactly!
0:26:25 > 0:26:27Economics.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29You are right, it is economics.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31So question three,
0:26:31 > 0:26:36and you need this, Duckenders, you really need this.
0:26:36 > 0:26:42Which vehicle takes its name from the Latin for "to pull"?
0:26:47 > 0:26:52Which vehicle takes its name from the Latin for "to pull"?
0:26:52 > 0:26:54It must be the tractor, mustn't it?
0:26:54 > 0:26:58- Because it is the only one that pulls amongst those.- Yes.
0:26:58 > 0:27:02As it is the only one that pulls, we are going to say tractor.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05You are right, the logic was absolutely brilliant!
0:27:05 > 0:27:09Very robust, it is the tractor, you are still in there.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12Now, Eggheads, if you get
0:27:12 > 0:27:17this question right, you've won the contest, so we have tension here.
0:27:17 > 0:27:22In which part of Europe did the polka dance originate?
0:27:28 > 0:27:32- Bohemia.- Yeah, Bohemia.- Bohemia.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36- How did you come to that answer? - By the usual conduction.
0:27:36 > 0:27:42We know the general country area it evolved in and that's in Bohemia.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45You are right, it's Bohemia.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47Congratulations, Eggheads, you've won!
0:27:51 > 0:27:55Commiserations, challengers, the Eggheads have done what comes
0:27:55 > 0:27:58naturally to them and their winning streak continues.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £9,000, which means that
0:28:02 > 0:28:06the money rolls over to the next show. Eggheads,
0:28:06 > 0:28:08congratulations, who will beat you?
0:28:08 > 0:28:13Join us next time to see if the new challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:13 > 0:28:17£10,000 says they don't! Till then, goodbye.
