0:00:04 > 0:00:08These five people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:12 > 0:00:15arguably 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 a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33You might recognise them as they've won some
0:00:33 > 0:00:37of the country's toughest quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40Challenging our resident quiz champions today
0:00:40 > 0:00:42are Oscar Lives. The team are all teachers
0:00:42 > 0:00:46at various schools and colleges across the Midlands
0:00:46 > 0:00:51and are named after team captain David's sadly deceased cat, Oscar.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Let's meet them.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56Hello. I'm David, I'm 49 and I'm a vice principal
0:00:56 > 0:00:58at a community college.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02Hi. I'm Andrew, I'm 46 and I'm a teacher.
0:01:02 > 0:01:07Hello. My name's Pam. I'm 49 and I'm an infant school head teacher.
0:01:07 > 0:01:12Hello. I'm Dave, I'm 55 and I'm a director of drama.
0:01:12 > 0:01:17Hello. I'm Graeme, I'm 55 and I'm a pastoral manager.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20- You obviously miss Oscar, David? - Terribly. I'm still in therapy.
0:01:20 > 0:01:25Now you have watched Casablanca how many times?
0:01:25 > 0:01:29About 10, maybe 15, maybe 20 times. I don't know how many.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32I know Casablanca comes up sometimes in quizzes,
0:01:32 > 0:01:35so what is the key Casablanca question?
0:01:35 > 0:01:36I think it would be,
0:01:36 > 0:01:39"What does Claude Rains throw into the bin at the end of the film?"
0:01:39 > 0:01:43What does Claude Rains through into the bin at the end? Any of you?
0:01:43 > 0:01:47- Never seen it.- You don't know!- No.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50- What is it?- It's a bottle of Vichy water. Symbolic...
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Ah, yes. He's turning his back on the Vichy regime.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55- That's going off with Rick, yeah. - I'll tell you what,
0:01:55 > 0:01:59good start! Keep it going. Every day there's £1,000
0:01:59 > 0:02:02worth of cash for our challengers. However, if they fail
0:02:02 > 0:02:05to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:05 > 0:02:11So, Oscar Lives, the Eggheads have won the last 13 games,
0:02:11 > 0:02:15which means £14,000 says you can't beat them.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18The first head-to-head will be on Geography.
0:02:18 > 0:02:19Challengers,
0:02:19 > 0:02:22you can decide who takes this and who you play against.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26Thank you. Well we're all equally the same at Geography
0:02:26 > 0:02:30but some of us are more equal than others,
0:02:30 > 0:02:31and Dave is the man.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32- Are you sure?- Absolutely.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34OK. We'll go with that.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36OK, Dave, who do you want to play?
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Anyone not called Daphne on Geography, cos she's brilliant.
0:02:39 > 0:02:40Erm...
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Go...
0:02:44 > 0:02:45..with CJ.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47The questions will get harder!
0:02:48 > 0:02:53This is a corporate decision and we'll go with CJ.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57OK. It's Dave from Oscar Lives against CJ from the Eggheads,
0:02:57 > 0:03:00and to ensure there's no conferring, would you please
0:03:00 > 0:03:03take your positions in the question room?
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Dave, it's you against CJ.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10I'll ask you each three multiple choice questions on Geography.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13Whoever answers the most is the winner,
0:03:13 > 0:03:17- and Dave you can choose the first or the second set.- I'll go first.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22What is the capital of Belgium?
0:03:27 > 0:03:31I'm fairly happy with it not being Ostend. That's a nice ferry port.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35There may be some regional difficulties.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37I will go with Brussels.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39- Brussels is your answer?- It is.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42You're right. Well done. CJ,
0:03:42 > 0:03:46which island group comprises the northernmost extremity of the UK?
0:03:52 > 0:03:55The Scilly Islands are off the western coast of Cornwall,
0:03:55 > 0:03:57and the Faroe Islands aren't anything to do
0:03:57 > 0:04:01with the British Isles, and the Shetland Islands are way up north.
0:04:01 > 0:04:06I think the most northerly land is "Muckle Fugger" or something.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08It is the Shetland Islands.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11You're right. Well done. One each.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Dave,
0:04:12 > 0:04:14here's your next question...
0:04:14 > 0:04:18Linate and Malpensa airports serve which European city?
0:04:25 > 0:04:29Well, there's a fairly big French politician
0:04:29 > 0:04:32who has the main airport in Paris.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36The words don't sound Greek, so I'll go for Milan.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Is that a guess, or logic?
0:04:39 > 0:04:41There's an element of logic.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44And it's right as well. Well done. Milan.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Two-one.
0:04:46 > 0:04:50CJ, Guadalcanal is the largest island in which group?
0:04:55 > 0:04:57It's in the Solomon Islands.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59In the Solomon Islands, you say?
0:04:59 > 0:05:02- It is. - Why do you say that so quietly?
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Just in case I'm wrong but I'm fairly sure it's right.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09What, you mean if you're wrong, you can pretend you didn't say?
0:05:09 > 0:05:11"Where did you get that? Nothing to do with me!"
0:05:11 > 0:05:13You're right. It's the Solomon Islands. Well done.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Two points each.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20If you get this, you'll put real pressure on the Eggheads.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22What is the longest freshwater lake in the world?
0:05:28 > 0:05:33Well, Lake Superior is bigger than Lake Michigan,
0:05:33 > 0:05:35so we can get rid of that one.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39I'm torn between the other two, to be fair.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42I think in...
0:05:45 > 0:05:49..Russian Asia, I think Lake Baikal is the biggest lake.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52The longest freshwater lake in the world...?
0:05:52 > 0:05:55It's certainly an inland lake. Lake Baikal.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- Is that your answer?- It is.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02- Is he right, Eggheads? - It's the biggest lake.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03The longest freshwater lake...
0:06:03 > 0:06:06If it's the longest... It's the biggest.
0:06:06 > 0:06:07Tanganyika we'd have gone for.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10- Baikal's the biggest in area. - Because it's round.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12Tanganyika is the longest. It's long and narrow.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16I'm afraid, Dave, he's right. Tanganyika is the longest.
0:06:16 > 0:06:20You're wrong. CJ, for the round...
0:06:20 > 0:06:24What is the approximate depth of the deepest point of the Mariana Trench,
0:06:24 > 0:06:26the deepest known ocean depth?
0:06:31 > 0:06:35I think the actual deepest point is 36,201 feet,
0:06:35 > 0:06:38so out of those three options, I'll go for 36,000.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40You wouldn't be showing off by any chance?
0:06:40 > 0:06:42I certainly would be, yes.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45You're right, CJ.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46Brilliantly answered.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48So, Dave, you were beaten
0:06:48 > 0:06:50by our Egghead. It happens.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53As a result, you won't be able to help in the Final Round.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Would you both please rejoin your team-mates.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00So, the challengers have lost one brain
0:07:00 > 0:07:04from the Final Round while the Eggheads have lost none.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07The next subject is Arts and Books.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Which one of you teachers fancies this and against who?
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- Shall we toss? - I don't mind. I'll do it.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- OK. It's gonna be Pam. - It's gonna be Pam?
0:07:18 > 0:07:21- Dave, this would have been your category?- Yeah.- Head of Drama?
0:07:21 > 0:07:23- Never mind.- OK, Pam, who do you wanna play?
0:07:23 > 0:07:25We should take Chris on this one.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29OK, then. I'll take Arts and Books and I'll play Chris.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33Right, Pam from Oscar Lives against Chris from the Eggheads.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35To ensure there's no conferring,
0:07:35 > 0:07:38please take your positions in the question room.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41I'll ask you three questions on Arts and Books.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Pam, would you like the first set or the second set?
0:07:44 > 0:07:46I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53What name is given to a portrait of a person in profile
0:07:53 > 0:07:55which shows the outline only
0:07:55 > 0:07:59and is usually a cut out of black paper on a white background?
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Well, I do think I know the answer to this one. I think it's silhouette.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Absolutely right. Well done. First point to you.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13APPLAUSE
0:08:13 > 0:08:14Chris, your first question.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18What word is used for the rhythm of a piece of poetry
0:08:18 > 0:08:22and is determined by the number and length of feet in a line?
0:08:25 > 0:08:27That is the metre.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29Quite right.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33Pam, in what century was the artist Botticelli born?
0:08:38 > 0:08:39OK...
0:08:39 > 0:08:43Now, I was hoping it was going to be more literature than art,
0:08:43 > 0:08:45but I will hazard a guess.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Let me see. Botticelli.
0:08:50 > 0:08:54I will take a guess at the 15th century.
0:08:54 > 0:09:00- The 15th century, you say?- Yes. - Can any Eggheads name the year?
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Actually, you see different, erm...
0:09:02 > 0:09:05It's one of those things where the records are not entirely set,
0:09:05 > 0:09:08but it's usually either 1444 or '45.
0:09:08 > 0:09:131444 or 1445? Yes, it's... Yeah, I've got 1445.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16Changes in the calendar as well - that affects it, so...
0:09:16 > 0:09:18The main thing is you're right, Pam.
0:09:18 > 0:09:19Well done.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21CHALLENGERS CLAP
0:09:21 > 0:09:26Chris, My Uncle Silas is a book of short stories by which author?
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Well, Stella Gibbons wrote Cold Comfort Farm
0:09:34 > 0:09:36and not a whole lot else.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Laurie Lee tended to write autobiographies
0:09:39 > 0:09:43like Cider With Rosie and his experiences in the Spanish Civil War,
0:09:43 > 0:09:46but a prolific writer of short stories was HE Bates,
0:09:46 > 0:09:48so that's the one I have to go with.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Spot on. Well done.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52Two points apiece.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53Pam...
0:09:53 > 0:09:56put some pressure on him by getting this right.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Which playwright's works include A Day In The Death Of Joe Egg
0:10:00 > 0:10:02and Privates on Parade?
0:10:08 > 0:10:10Well, something in the back of my mind
0:10:10 > 0:10:12tells me this might be Joe Orton.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15I'm not 100%, but that's my guess.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17- Joe Orton.- That's your answer, is it?
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Yeah.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22You're wrong. It's Peter Nichols.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26And I sensed at least one team-mate knew that.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29For the round, Chris...
0:10:29 > 0:10:33Sal Paradise is the main character
0:10:33 > 0:10:37in which influential American novel first published in 1957?
0:10:41 > 0:10:46Well, it's not Lolita, because she was Dolores Haze.
0:10:49 > 0:10:50On The Road's Jack Kerouac,
0:10:50 > 0:10:54and autobiographical again, so I don't think it's On The Road,
0:10:54 > 0:10:57so it must be Burroughs' Naked Lunch.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00You're wrong!
0:11:00 > 0:11:03- It's On The Road.- Oh.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Pam, you're still in. After three questions,
0:11:05 > 0:11:09the scores are level. We go now to sudden death and just to make it
0:11:09 > 0:11:12that bit harder, these questions are not multiple choice.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14- Pam, here we go. Are you ready? - I am.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18When asked what his plays were about, which English playwright
0:11:18 > 0:11:24born in London in 1930 replied, "the weasel under the cocktail cabinet"?
0:11:24 > 0:11:27I have heard this quotation before.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34But I'm sorry, I can't bring it to mind.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41No. I think I'm going to have to pass, I'm afraid, on that one.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44OK. It's Harold Pinter.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Chris, Charles Darnay
0:11:48 > 0:11:52and Sydney Carton are characters in which Charles Dickens' novel?
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Erm, in A Tale of Two Cities.
0:11:54 > 0:11:59- Quite right.- "It's a far, far better thing I do now than I've ever done".
0:11:59 > 0:12:03Well done, Chris. You won the round. Pam, you were beaten by our Egghead.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06You won't be able to help your team in the Final Round.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10Would you both please come back and rejoin your team-mates?
0:12:12 > 0:12:16The challengers have lost two brains from the Final Round.
0:12:16 > 0:12:17The Eggheads have lost none.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20The next subject is Music, everybody, Music.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24Now which of you wants to take this on, and who do you want to play?
0:12:24 > 0:12:28RECITES: Music is my first love And it will be my last
0:12:28 > 0:12:29- Music is the...- Really?
0:12:29 > 0:12:30You're doing it.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- Marvellous! It's me. - You're up for this.
0:12:33 > 0:12:34Who do you want to play against?
0:12:34 > 0:12:37- Judith...- I don't know. It looks like three for Judith,
0:12:37 > 0:12:38so I'll go with that.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42So Andrew from Oscar Lives against Judith from the Eggheads.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Please take your positions in the question room.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49I'll ask each of you three questions on music.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52Andrew, would you like the first or second set?
0:12:52 > 0:12:55I'd kind of like to get it over with, please, Jeremy.
0:12:57 > 0:12:58Andrew,
0:12:58 > 0:13:01"In the town where I was born Lived a man who sailed to sea"
0:13:01 > 0:13:04are the opening lines of which Beatles song?
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Well, I do know. I lived in Liverpool for a while,
0:13:12 > 0:13:16so I should know. I'm gonna go for Yellow Submarine.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Yes, I had a sudden moment thinking, "Is that right?"
0:13:19 > 0:13:24but it is Yellow Submarine. Well done. First point to you.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Judith, The Rain In Spain and Ascot Gavotte
0:13:27 > 0:13:29are songs from which musical?
0:13:33 > 0:13:37I think that might be... I KNOW that is My Fair Lady,
0:13:37 > 0:13:39with conviction, Jeremy.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43My Fair Lady, with conviction. You are right. Well done, Judith.
0:13:43 > 0:13:44Totally convinced.
0:13:45 > 0:13:52Andrew, which composer's fifth piano concerto is known as The Emperor?
0:13:56 > 0:13:59I don't know.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Really not very clued-up on classical music,
0:14:02 > 0:14:05which is obviously a great thing for the Eggheads.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08- What do you teach, Andrew? - Mathematics, mostly.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- Which they say is very linked to music.- Yeah, they do.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14I just don't know. Erm...
0:14:14 > 0:14:18Beethoven's Fifth is obviously one of the most famous
0:14:18 > 0:14:22of all those bits of old stuff that you do hear playing around,
0:14:22 > 0:14:25but I haven't actually heard it called that.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28Erm...
0:14:28 > 0:14:32Mozart I suppose could have been hanging around with an emperor.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34He's that kind of court kind of person, wasn't he?
0:14:34 > 0:14:38Erm, Brahms...
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Not ringing any bells. I'm gonna go middle Mozart.
0:14:45 > 0:14:46No, it was Beethoven.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50- Ah!- His fifth piano concerto is known as The Emperor.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52I should listen more often.
0:14:53 > 0:14:58Judith, the official 2008 Sport Relief single Footprints In The Sand
0:14:58 > 0:15:01is a recording by which singer?
0:15:04 > 0:15:08Well, I would bet on either Leona Lewis or Lee Mead.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11I think probably Leona Lewis.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14She's very much flavour of the month, isn't she?
0:15:14 > 0:15:17- That is... - Can you remove the question mark?
0:15:17 > 0:15:21- No, I can't, not this time!- That's your answer, Leona Lewis?- Yes.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24It's right. Well done. You take the lead.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26You need this, Andrew,
0:15:26 > 0:15:29or you're out of the Final Round.
0:15:29 > 0:15:34Starz In Their Eyes was a UK Top Ten hit single in 2007 for which singer?
0:15:43 > 0:15:46If I listened to the children at school a bit more often
0:15:46 > 0:15:48I might know this sort of thing.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50I suppose I should.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54Erm... Can you tell me what the track is called again, please?
0:15:54 > 0:15:59Yeah. Starz In Their Eyes, and Starz is spelt S-T-A-R-Z In Their Eyes.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01UK Top Ten hit single in 2007 for which singer?
0:16:01 > 0:16:03James Morrison sort of warbles.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07And Mika's a bit kind of high-pitchy, and I don't know anything
0:16:07 > 0:16:10about Just Jack. For that reason, I'll choose that.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13Just Jack, sounds like somebody that might spell a song with a Z
0:16:13 > 0:16:14when they oughtn't.
0:16:16 > 0:16:17- Just Jack?- Mmm.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20- You're absolutely right! - Well done.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23By elimination, you got it.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26Judith, the medieval instrument called the "rebec"
0:16:26 > 0:16:29belonged to which family of instruments?
0:16:29 > 0:16:31If you get this, you've got the round.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37- Is it R-E-B-E-C?- It is.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41That actually doesn't help me much.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44- It was a good guess.- I'm terribly bad about medieval instruments.
0:16:44 > 0:16:48Rebec. There's something in my mind thought
0:16:48 > 0:16:51it might be an early kind of recorder,
0:16:51 > 0:16:55so... I'm gonna say woodwind.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00- Woodwind is wrong. - Oh. String.- It's a string instrument.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03- It's like...- Daphne, what does it look like?
0:17:03 > 0:17:06- It's an early violin. - You hold it on your shoulder?
0:17:06 > 0:17:09- It's a violin, sort of very early. - It's got a bow?- Yes.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12- Now we know! Well done, Andrew. You're still in it.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15- Lucky!- After three questions on multiple choice,
0:17:15 > 0:17:18with the scores level, we go to sudden death
0:17:18 > 0:17:21and to make it that bit harder, these are not multiple choice.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24During the Live Aid concerts in 1985, Andrew,
0:17:24 > 0:17:29who performed in Wembley Stadium and then flew by Concorde
0:17:29 > 0:17:32to play in Philadelphia's JFK Stadium later the same day?
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Well, I really ought to know that.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40I've got several names flooding through my head at the moment,
0:17:40 > 0:17:45and none of them really appearing in both venues.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Erm...
0:17:49 > 0:17:53I'm probably gonna have to plump for Phil Collins.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57I really hope, rest of the team, that's not letting you down.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Yeah. I can tell you, when you said "Phil Collins",
0:17:59 > 0:18:02at least three members of your team punched the air.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04- Oh really!- With delight, not with anger,
0:18:04 > 0:18:07because he's right, isn't he, teachers?
0:18:07 > 0:18:09- He is right.- Well done. - What a relief, excellent!
0:18:12 > 0:18:15So, Judith. Pressure on you, now.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Timothy Z Moseley
0:18:17 > 0:18:23is the real name of which American record producer, rapper and singer?
0:18:23 > 0:18:26It's not Eminem, which is about the only one I can think of.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Erm...
0:18:29 > 0:18:31There's somebody...
0:18:31 > 0:18:34with "Zee" in their name. Erm...
0:18:36 > 0:18:39I've absolutely no idea. I really haven't a clue.
0:18:39 > 0:18:44I don't know a thing about...rappers.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47Right. So you're not gonna answer on principle?
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Well, is there somebody called Jay-Z, or something?
0:18:50 > 0:18:52- Is that your answer? - Well, yes, it will have to be.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55- I have to invent it. - All right. We'll take that.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58Daphne, you wanted to say you know,
0:18:58 > 0:19:00so let's just have a great Egghead moment here. Go on.
0:19:00 > 0:19:05- Timbaland.- Timbaland is the right answer, yes.- Oh!
0:19:05 > 0:19:10You're at home listening to all his albums, Daphne, every night.
0:19:10 > 0:19:11I thought he was Timberlake.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Different person. - Different person, I'm told.- Really?
0:19:14 > 0:19:16That's Justin Timberlake.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Oh, Justin... Different from Timbaland?
0:19:18 > 0:19:21We could spend the rest of our lives on this conversation, Judith.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23Well done, Andrew.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25You took an Egghead and emerged triumphant.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Great news for our challengers, after a difficult streak. Well done.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32So, Andrew, you will play in today's Final Round.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Congratulations. Both of you, please join your teams.
0:19:37 > 0:19:41The challengers have lost two brains from the Final Round,
0:19:41 > 0:19:44while the Eggheads have lost one. Our last subject is Sport.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48Which one of you wants Sport and which Egghead?
0:19:48 > 0:19:49I think it might be me!
0:19:49 > 0:19:53The answer is, nobody really wants Sport, particularly,
0:19:53 > 0:19:54but it's gonna be Graeme.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57Graeme, who do you wanna play?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00Either Kevin or Daphne.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04They've both probably memorised everything that's ever happened...
0:20:04 > 0:20:08- They have but sometimes they forget. - We're gonna go Kevin.
0:20:08 > 0:20:13- Kevin, OK... - No, he's major on Sport.
0:20:13 > 0:20:14- Daphne.- Daphne.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17He's brilliant and she's absolutely brilliant!
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Well, I know. I'd be delighted to beat either.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23Daphne it is, then. I'm really sorry, Kevin, but it's Daphne.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27OK, so it's Graeme against Daphne. Graeme from Oscar Lives
0:20:27 > 0:20:30versus Daphne from the Eggheads. Please go to the question room now.
0:20:32 > 0:20:33I'll ask you three questions on Sport.
0:20:33 > 0:20:38- Graeme, you can choose first or second set.- I'll go first, please.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45Die-hard fans of which football club are known as Kopites?
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Die hard fans of which football club are known as Kopites?
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Arsenal are the Gunners,
0:20:53 > 0:20:55I believe Manchester United are the Red Devils,
0:20:55 > 0:20:57so that would lead me to Liverpool.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00Bang on. After the Kop. Well done.
0:21:00 > 0:21:01CHALLENGERS CLAP
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Daphne, in the game of tennis,
0:21:03 > 0:21:06what is another name for an overhead shot
0:21:06 > 0:21:07played during a rally?
0:21:12 > 0:21:14That would be a smash.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17It is indeed.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Second question for you, Graeme.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23The ill-tempered 1999 Ryder Cup match
0:21:23 > 0:21:25took place on which golf course?
0:21:32 > 0:21:35It was held in England and not Scotland,
0:21:35 > 0:21:36so I'll go for The Belfry.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40It's the wrong answer. It's Brookline.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43- It's Brookline.- Which is where? - What was the bad temper about?
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Massachusetts in America, and...
0:21:45 > 0:21:48It was the one where on the final hole the Americans putted
0:21:48 > 0:21:52the final shot and they all ran on to the green, cheering and celebrating,
0:21:52 > 0:21:55not realising the Europeans still had a putt to half the tournament.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57A lot of acrimony in it.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01OK. Bad luck there, Graeme. Daphne, how often is the Vendee Globe
0:22:01 > 0:22:04single-handed round-the-world yacht race held?
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Well, it's certainly not annually.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Erm, I really...
0:22:17 > 0:22:19I haven't got...
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Oh, dear!
0:22:24 > 0:22:29Well, I'm just gonna have to guess, Jeremy.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32Every four years. Sorry!
0:22:32 > 0:22:36No sorry, it's a great guess. You're right, well done.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39- Phew!- So you're in the lead and that means Graeme,
0:22:39 > 0:22:40you need this.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42What is the nationality
0:22:42 > 0:22:45of the Olympic gold medal-winning javelin thrower Jan Zelezny?
0:22:49 > 0:22:53I think he's on the Olympic Committee now and I would say he's Czech.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- Czech is your answer?- Yes. - It's right. Great answer.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59Daphne, here we go.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Can you win the round?
0:23:01 > 0:23:05In international artistic gymnastics competition, the floor exercise
0:23:05 > 0:23:09is performed on a matted area of how many square metres?
0:23:12 > 0:23:18Before it came up, I immediately thought of 12,
0:23:18 > 0:23:22but I thought that was feet, but I'm gonna stick with it and go for 12.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24Your answer is 12?
0:23:24 > 0:23:28- It is 12 square metres. - Is it?! Oh, thank you!
0:23:28 > 0:23:31Brilliant answer! Brilliant play in this round by you,
0:23:31 > 0:23:35well done, and Graeme, you were beaten by our Egghead,
0:23:35 > 0:23:38so as a result, you won't be able to help your team in the Final Round.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42Both of you please come back now and rejoin your team-mates.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45This is what we've been playing towards.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48It's the Final Round, which, as always is General Knowledge,
0:23:48 > 0:23:51but I'm afraid those who lost your head-to-heads
0:23:51 > 0:23:54won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Pam, Dave and Graeme from Oscar Lives
0:23:56 > 0:23:59and Judith from the Eggheads,
0:23:59 > 0:24:01would you please now leave the studio?
0:24:03 > 0:24:08David and Andrew, you're playing to win Oscar Lives £14,000.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11Kevin, CJ, Daphne and Chris
0:24:11 > 0:24:13you are playing for something which money can't buy -
0:24:13 > 0:24:15the Eggheads' reputation.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18Now as usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21This time the questions are General Knowledge
0:24:21 > 0:24:23and you are allowed to confer.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Oscar Lives, the question is,
0:24:25 > 0:24:29are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:24:29 > 0:24:33David and Andrew, would you like the first or second set of questions?
0:24:33 > 0:24:38- What do you reckon?- Well, we've been doing unluckily in first,
0:24:38 > 0:24:40so we're going to go for first.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44First. You threw me there.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47- You want the first set of questions? - I was being ironic, sorry.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49- He's awkward, isn't he?- OK.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52- I'm trying to follow the logic. - Why break up a losing combination?
0:24:52 > 0:24:55Historically, the heir to the throne of which country
0:24:55 > 0:25:00had a title that translates into English as Dolphin?
0:25:02 > 0:25:05Well, we've had a Belgian question already tonight,
0:25:05 > 0:25:07which I'd prefer here.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09- Spanish...- Really?
0:25:09 > 0:25:14- Waffle...?- I'm waffling here, erm, but Dauphin is the heir to the throne
0:25:14 > 0:25:17- of France, so it's France. - France is right. Well done.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Eggheads, what colour eyes do all Siamese cats have,
0:25:24 > 0:25:26regardless of the colour of their coat?
0:25:30 > 0:25:33- Blue.- Everybody happy with that?
0:25:33 > 0:25:35They have blue eyes, Jeremy.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38It is blue, you're right. Well done. They're all blue-eyed.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Level. Second question.
0:25:40 > 0:25:46In which TV drama series first shown in 2008 did Michelle Collins
0:25:46 > 0:25:49play Karina Faith, a successful music industry figure?
0:25:54 > 0:25:59Well, Ashes To Ashes was the time travel one with Keeley Hawes.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Echo Beach was, erm...
0:26:02 > 0:26:06Erm, Jason Donovan, who isn't a lady,
0:26:06 > 0:26:10but it is...Rock Rivals.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13It is Rock Rivals. Well done. You're ahead.
0:26:15 > 0:26:20Eggheads, the term hussar for a light cavalryman
0:26:20 > 0:26:23originated in which country in the 15th century?
0:26:25 > 0:26:29I believe that was Hungary, Jeremy.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33I believe it was. You're right. Well done. Hungary is correct.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35So, you really need this
0:26:35 > 0:26:39to put the pressure on them.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42What name is given to a hotel in Spain that is owned
0:26:42 > 0:26:45and administered by the government?
0:26:50 > 0:26:55- Been in one?- I have been in a Spanish hotel, but, erm...
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Well I was, when I was 9, I think, so...
0:26:57 > 0:27:00I didn't pay much attention to what it said on the door!
0:27:00 > 0:27:05Erm... I'm afraid this is probably gonna have to be a guess, isn't it?
0:27:05 > 0:27:06Well they do have pensions...
0:27:06 > 0:27:09They do have pensions, but they have pensions and...
0:27:09 > 0:27:12Paraguas sounds like it's to do with water, to me.
0:27:12 > 0:27:16- Well, we'll disregard paraguas. - Parador?
0:27:16 > 0:27:18So it's either parador or pension?
0:27:18 > 0:27:22Sounds... I'd have to go for the middle one
0:27:22 > 0:27:25cos it's the only one that would have anything to do...
0:27:25 > 0:27:28We're both very close to our pension, so we'll go for pension.
0:27:28 > 0:27:29You're going for pension?
0:27:30 > 0:27:34It's the wrong answer. It's parador.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37Eggheads, this for the contest.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41Who directed the 1981 film Escape To Victory,
0:27:41 > 0:27:45in which Pele, Bobby Moore and a host of other football players
0:27:45 > 0:27:49act alongside Michael Caine and Sylvester Stallone?
0:27:54 > 0:27:57I've actually seen that film.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59- I've actually seen that film. - You admit it!
0:27:59 > 0:28:02- I think it might be John Huston. - Huston.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04- It's John Huston, Jeremy. - Are you sure?- Yeah.
0:28:04 > 0:28:09I can tell you that John Huston is the correct answer. Well done.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12Congratulations, Eggheads. You've won.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20Commiserations, the Eggheads have done
0:28:20 > 0:28:23what comes naturally to them. Their winning streak continues.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £14,000.
0:28:26 > 0:28:27Drat!
0:28:27 > 0:28:32Which means the money rolls over. Eggheads, congratulations.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34Who will beat you? Join us next time
0:28:34 > 0:28:38to see if the new challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41£15,000 will say they don't.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Until then, goodbye.
