These five people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:040:00:08

Together, they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:080:00:11

arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:110:00:15

The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:170:00:20

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

0:00:230:00:27

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

0:00:270:00:30

You might recognise them as they are goliaths in the world of TV quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.

0:00:300:00:37

Taking on our quiz goliaths today are...

0:00:370:00:40

They're second-year jazz students

0:00:410:00:43

at Trinity College in London

0:00:430:00:45

and they play a variety of instruments, including guitar, drums and saxophone.

0:00:450:00:50

Let's hope they don't play second fiddle to the Eggheads.

0:00:500:00:53

Hi, my name's Pete, I'm 21 and I'm a jazz bass student.

0:00:530:00:56

My name's Steve, I'm 24 and I'm a jazz piano student.

0:00:560:00:59

My name's Lewis, I'm 19 and I study jazz drums.

0:00:590:01:02

My name's Chris, I'm 21 and I'm studying jazz drums.

0:01:020:01:06

My name's Tom, I'm 20 and I study the jazz saxophone.

0:01:060:01:10

-So we could have a band here.

-Yeah.

0:01:100:01:13

-Do you play together?

-Yeah, yeah, a fair amount.

-A lot.

0:01:130:01:17

And what's studying jazz all about?

0:01:170:01:19

-A lot of free time. PlayStation.

-I thought the whole point was that you just do what you like.

0:01:190:01:24

There's lots to learn.

0:01:240:01:26

You're expected do a lot of work on your own, aside from actually attending lectures and stuff.

0:01:260:01:31

-Prepare yourself for a life of poverty.

-Prepare for a life of poverty?

0:01:310:01:35

We might be able to do something about that.

0:01:350:01:38

Every day, there's £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.

0:01:380:01:42

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

0:01:420:01:46

So, Jazzers, I can tell you that the Eggheads have won the last 14 games.

0:01:460:01:51

So £15,000 will sweep you away from that life of poverty if you win.

0:01:510:01:58

The first head-to-head battle will be on the subject of Arts & Books.

0:01:580:02:03

Challengers, right up your street, I would have thought.

0:02:030:02:06

Who wants to play Arts & Books and against which Egghead?

0:02:060:02:09

-I think we've talked about this.

-Chris?

0:02:090:02:12

Or shall we sacrifice Tom?

0:02:120:02:14

-Tom, I think...

-It's up to you, team captain.

0:02:140:02:17

We're gonna nominate Tom.

0:02:170:02:19

-Oh, good(!)

-Tom, music student, saxophonist, against who?

0:02:190:02:25

-Go on, Pete. You're team captain, make the decision.

-Chris.

0:02:250:02:29

OK, it's Tom from the Jazzers against Chris, the Egghead.

0:02:290:02:34

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

0:02:340:02:38

OK, let's see how you do.

0:02:390:02:41

I'm gonna ask each of you three multiple choice questions on Arts & Books. Tell me, Tom,

0:02:410:02:46

-do you want the first or second set of questions?

-I'll go for the first set, please.

0:02:460:02:51

Tom, which colour gives its name to the curtains hung to mask the backstage area in a theatre?

0:02:540:02:59

Well, I should know this one.

0:03:030:03:05

Being a saxophone player, I play in many theatres.

0:03:050:03:08

I think the curtains are usually black, so I'm gonna go for blacks.

0:03:080:03:14

Blacks is the right answer. Well done.

0:03:140:03:17

-Yes, yes, yes. That is good.

-It would be worrying

0:03:170:03:20

if a performer got that wrong.

0:03:200:03:23

Chris, Jane Eyre is a book by which author?

0:03:230:03:25

Jane Eyre, Mr Rochester.

0:03:280:03:31

That's Charlotte Bronte.

0:03:310:03:33

Is that one you've read?

0:03:330:03:35

No, it's not my sort of thing. But I know it's a Bronte sister.

0:03:350:03:40

Right answer. Charlotte Bronte. Well done. One-all. Tom,

0:03:400:03:43

the pompous Malvolio, who's tricked

0:03:430:03:46

into wearing an absurd pair of yellow stockings, is a character in which Shakespeare play?

0:03:460:03:52

Well, I definitely only looked at one of these plays and I'm gonna

0:03:550:04:00

have to go for that one, which is Twelfth Night, so that's my answer.

0:04:000:04:05

-Team-mates, how's he done?

-He's done all right.

-Pretty good.

0:04:050:04:08

They like it here. We like it too.

0:04:080:04:10

-You're right.

-Yes!

0:04:100:04:13

-Good! Good!

-Chris,

0:04:130:04:16

Franny And Zooey is a 1961 book of two short stories

0:04:160:04:20

by which reclusive American author?

0:04:200:04:22

I don't think Norman Mailer was particularly reclusive.

0:04:280:04:32

And Upton Sinclair

0:04:330:04:36

tended to write weighty tomes, rather than short stories.

0:04:360:04:40

The only thing I've ever heard of being written by JD Salinger

0:04:400:04:43

was Catcher In The Rye, and he was a bit of a recluse, so on that logic,

0:04:430:04:47

I'll have to say JD Salinger.

0:04:470:04:50

You're right. It was JD Salinger.

0:04:500:04:53

Your third multiple choice question, Tom.

0:04:530:04:56

Postern Of Fate was the last novel

0:04:560:04:58

to be written, although not the last to be published, by which writer?

0:04:580:05:04

Well, I've no idea why I've been chosen for Arts & Books,

0:05:100:05:14

because I haven't read a book for a while.

0:05:140:05:16

It's been too much saxophone practice and less reading.

0:05:160:05:20

I'll have to go with the one I've heard of, which is Agatha Christie.

0:05:250:05:29

Agatha Christie is your answer.

0:05:310:05:33

Eggheads, any Agatha Christie fans here? Daphne? Cos I am too.

0:05:330:05:36

The last novel to be written by Agatha Christie was...

0:05:360:05:39

-Postern Of Fate.

-So you're right, Tom. Well done.

-Fantastic!

0:05:390:05:44

-What is a postern?

-It's a gateway.

0:05:470:05:50

Chris, you need this, or you have been

0:05:500:05:53

knocked out by a man who plays the saxophone, which is painful.

0:05:530:06:00

Which poet went to Spain with a group of friends in 1830

0:06:000:06:04

to fight an unsuccessful revolution against Ferdinand VII?

0:06:040:06:07

It wasn't Alfred, Lord Tennyson,

0:06:120:06:14

because he'd have been too young at the time.

0:06:140:06:17

I think Colley Cibber was 18th century

0:06:170:06:19

and would have been either dead or far too old. So in his wild youth,

0:06:190:06:25

I think it was William Wordsworth went to Spain.

0:06:250:06:27

-That's your answer, is it?

-Mmm.

0:06:270:06:29

You're wrong.

0:06:290:06:31

-It was Lord Tennyson.

-No way!

0:06:310:06:33

It is a victory for youth over beauty.

0:06:360:06:38

Well done, Jazzers. Last time we had a young team in,

0:06:380:06:42

they wiped the floor in the early stages.

0:06:420:06:44

Well done, Tom. You took an Egghead and emerged triumphant.

0:06:440:06:47

Good news for our challengers, cos Tom can now play in the final round.

0:06:470:06:50

Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:06:500:06:54

The Eggheads have lost one brain from the final round

0:06:550:06:58

whilst the challengers have lost no brains.

0:06:580:07:02

The next subject is Science. Who from the challengers

0:07:020:07:05

wants to play Science? Difficult for you musicians.

0:07:050:07:08

-And tell us who you want to play against.

-That was Tom's one.

0:07:080:07:12

That was Tom's one. Up to you, Pete.

0:07:120:07:14

-Me or Steve, I don't mind.

-We're going to have Steve from our team.

0:07:140:07:18

Steve the pianist?

0:07:180:07:20

-That's right.

-On Science?

-Yeah.

0:07:200:07:22

-Right...

-Shall we have Daphne?

-Who looks weak, who looks wobbly?

0:07:220:07:26

-We'll have Daphne.

-Do I look wobbly?

0:07:260:07:29

I don't think you do look weak or wobbly, but anyway, let's see how we do.

0:07:290:07:33

It's Steve from the Jazzers versus Daphne from the Eggheads.

0:07:330:07:37

Please go to the question room so there's no conferring.

0:07:370:07:40

Steve, would you like the first set of questions or the second set?

0:07:410:07:44

I'm going to plump for the first set.

0:07:440:07:46

OK, here we go.

0:07:490:07:50

The wildebeest, also known as the gnu, is native to which continent?

0:07:500:07:54

Wow!

0:07:570:07:59

OK, I'm going to take a stab.

0:07:590:08:01

For some reason, I can hear the word Africa in my head

0:08:010:08:04

so I'm going to go for Africa.

0:08:040:08:07

Does that happen a lot?

0:08:070:08:08

-It mainly happens with music.

-Is that your answer?

0:08:080:08:12

-Africa is my answer, yeah.

-Spot on!

0:08:120:08:15

Well done.

0:08:150:08:16

Africa is the answer. Daphne,

0:08:160:08:19

what is the only eagle that is solely native to North America?

0:08:190:08:22

Well, I'm hoping it's the bald eagle,

0:08:260:08:29

because that's the American emblem.

0:08:290:08:32

And it's the right answer, Daphne. Well done, it is the bald eagle.

0:08:320:08:36

Steve,

0:08:370:08:39

here's your next question.

0:08:390:08:41

In the late 1880s, which German scientist became the first person to send and receive radio waves?

0:08:410:08:47

OK, well, I don't know anything about Gustav Kirchhoff.

0:08:540:08:59

Hertz, from the musical background,

0:08:590:09:02

I know is to do with frequency, which is to do with sound waves.

0:09:020:09:06

Geiger, for some reason, I can hear radiation.

0:09:060:09:11

Is it a Geigometer?

0:09:110:09:12

I don't know. Um...

0:09:120:09:14

So it's Geiger or Hertz.

0:09:140:09:17

I'm gonna take a guess, an educated guess, I hope, at Heinrich Hertz.

0:09:210:09:28

-Educated guesses are always dangerous.

-Yeah.

0:09:300:09:33

-But you've done well. It was Heinrich Hertz.

-Wicked!

0:09:330:09:37

To whom, I guess,

0:09:370:09:38

all radio presenters should be grateful, because he created a whole industry with that.

0:09:380:09:43

Daphne, Ursus maritimus

0:09:430:09:47

is the Latin name for which carnivorous Arctic animal?

0:09:470:09:52

Well, the wolverine is also the glutton.

0:09:550:09:59

The snow leopard is also an ounce, and it's definitely the polar bear.

0:09:590:10:03

Quite right, Daphne, it is.

0:10:040:10:06

You have two questions each.

0:10:060:10:08

Steve, here's your next question.

0:10:080:10:11

What type of creature is the Australian goanna?

0:10:110:10:14

-Um...

-It's spelt G-O-A-N-N-A, by the way.

-OK.

0:10:160:10:21

I have to say, I have no idea.

0:10:210:10:25

Um...

0:10:250:10:26

I'm going to plump for lizard, for no particular reason.

0:10:260:10:32

You've done brilliantly, you're right! Steve, well done.

0:10:320:10:35

-So, Daphne...

-Oh, my goodness!

0:10:350:10:38

-There's no let-up with this game, is there?

-No.

0:10:380:10:42

Daphne, olibanum is another name for which aromatic resin?

0:10:420:10:47

I think patchouli is flower based, isn't it?

0:10:510:10:55

Um...

0:10:550:10:57

I'm honestly not sure, but I'm going to go for frankincense.

0:10:570:11:03

You are amazing. When you're not sure you're always right.

0:11:030:11:06

-How do you do that? It is frankincense.

-Oh!

0:11:060:11:09

After three questions each, the scores are level.

0:11:090:11:13

So we go, Steve, to sudden death now.

0:11:130:11:15

-And just to make it that bit harder, these questions are not multiple choice, OK?

-OK.

0:11:150:11:21

What was the middle name of the American inventor Thomas Edison?

0:11:210:11:24

Thomas Edison.

0:11:280:11:30

I'm going to have to take a complete stab in the dark.

0:11:300:11:35

I don't know why I have the word Harry in my head.

0:11:350:11:39

-But I'm going to say Harry.

-Previously, you've had the words Africa and lizard in your head

0:11:390:11:45

and they were right.

0:11:450:11:47

It's a shame you didn't have Alva in your head, because that is his middle name, not Harry.

0:11:470:11:52

So, Daphne, for the round.

0:11:520:11:55

By what two-word name

0:11:550:11:58

is minus 273.15 degrees Celsius more commonly known?

0:11:580:12:05

Absolute zero.

0:12:050:12:07

It is absolute zero. You're right.

0:12:070:12:10

Exit for the pianist.

0:12:100:12:12

Well done, Daphne. Steve, you were beaten by our Egghead.

0:12:120:12:16

As a result, you won't be able to help your team in the final round.

0:12:160:12:19

Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams in the studio.

0:12:190:12:22

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

0:12:230:12:28

The next subject is Film & Television.

0:12:280:12:31

Which of our Jazzers wants to take that on?

0:12:310:12:34

-I'm happy to do this.

-OK, Chris.

0:12:340:12:38

And who do you fancy?

0:12:380:12:39

-Er...

-Which Egghead?

0:12:390:12:41

-Shall we say Judith?

-Judith.

-Yeah, we'll go for Judith.

-OK, so it's Chris from the Jazzers

0:12:410:12:47

against Judith, the former Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? winner.

0:12:470:12:51

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

0:12:510:12:55

I will ask each of you three questions on Film & Television in turn. Chris,

0:12:560:13:01

-do you want the first or the second set of questions?

-I'll go second, please.

0:13:010:13:05

So, Judith, you're first. In which 2002 film did Pierce Brosnan play James Bond for the final time?

0:13:090:13:15

I could never sort out which James Bond...

0:13:190:13:23

I mean, the title of a James Bond film from the film.

0:13:230:13:26

I have a feeling it was GoldenEye that was last one he did.

0:13:260:13:33

-Is that your answer?

-Yeah.

0:13:330:13:35

That's the wrong answer.

0:13:350:13:36

-It was Die Another Day.

-Oh, dear!

0:13:360:13:39

So, Chris,

0:13:390:13:41

your first question. Which actress

0:13:410:13:43

did Matt Damon publicly dump on the Oprah Winfrey TV show in 1998?

0:13:430:13:49

Well, before that, Minnie Driver was in Good Will Hunting with...

0:13:540:13:58

with Matt Damon.

0:13:580:14:00

So that could be a clue. And Jennifer Lopez was going out

0:14:000:14:03

with his close friend, Ben Affleck, at that time.

0:14:030:14:08

Renee Zellweger could be...

0:14:080:14:10

I don't remember seeing them together.

0:14:120:14:14

I've never seen Renee Zellweger with Matt Damon.

0:14:140:14:18

I'm gonna go for Minnie Driver, because of the...

0:14:180:14:21

That's my final answer.

0:14:210:14:23

-And it's the right answer, Chris.

-Yeah!

0:14:230:14:28

Over to you, Judith.

0:14:280:14:30

Who played the role of Harold in the TV sitcom Steptoe And Son?

0:14:300:14:35

That was Harry H Corbett.

0:14:400:14:42

Of course it was, well done, you're right.

0:14:420:14:45

So you're level, but the advantage still with Chris.

0:14:450:14:48

Chris, which actor appeared

0:14:480:14:50

in the films Free Willy, Thelma And Louise and Reservoir Dogs?

0:14:500:14:56

Again, I'm pleased to get this,

0:15:010:15:03

because Reservoir Dogs is a gangster thing

0:15:030:15:06

and I know it quite well, I get the gangster genre.

0:15:060:15:09

I'm almost 100% it's Michael Madsen.

0:15:090:15:12

He's usually a tough guy,

0:15:120:15:13

but in Free Willy he did this sort of good guy turn.

0:15:130:15:17

I'm going to say... I'm almost positive it's Michael Madsen.

0:15:170:15:20

Well done, you're right!

0:15:200:15:23

What about this, Judith? A storming performance

0:15:250:15:28

by our 21 year old.

0:15:280:15:31

Your question. Which 1970s science-fiction film

0:15:310:15:35

features three droids called Huey, Dewey and Louie?

0:15:350:15:40

-And if you don't get this right...

-I'm out.

0:15:440:15:47

You're gone...

0:15:470:15:48

-I've no idea.

-..into outer space.

0:15:480:15:50

To a dark star.

0:15:510:15:53

Er...Dark Star.

0:15:530:15:56

-Wrong answer. It's Silent Running.

-JAZZERS: Yes!

0:15:580:16:01

Well done, Chris.

0:16:010:16:04

Brilliant performance. Our drummer took on one of the Eggheads and emerged triumphant.

0:16:040:16:09

Good news for the challengers as it means you will be able to play in today's final round.

0:16:090:16:13

Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:16:130:16:17

To my left we have a bass-player, a pianist, two drummers

0:16:180:16:21

and a saxophonist - the Jazzers.

0:16:210:16:23

And as it stands, they have lost one brain from the final round, while the Eggheads have lost two brains.

0:16:230:16:29

-The last subject is Music!

-JAZZER: Um...!

0:16:290:16:34

-Your subject.

-That's great.

0:16:340:16:37

-Which of you wants to play this round?

-I'm going to nominate Lewis.

-Lewis.

-Thank you for that!

0:16:370:16:42

-And who do you want to take on?

-Kevin.

-Really? OK. All right.

0:16:420:16:47

We'll nominate Kevin, please.

0:16:470:16:49

So, Kevin from the Eggheads takes on our Jazzer, Lewis.

0:16:490:16:55

Please take your positions in the question room.

0:16:550:16:58

-Lewis, are you nervous?

-Yes!

0:17:000:17:02

But music performers are used to being nervous, right?

0:17:020:17:06

-I guess, in a way, yes.

-OK.

0:17:060:17:09

I'm going to ask each of you three questions on Music in turn.

0:17:090:17:12

-Lewis, you can choose the first or the second set.

-I'll choose the first set of questions, please.

0:17:120:17:17

So here we go.

0:17:190:17:20

In which section of the orchestra would you find the cello?

0:17:200:17:24

Um...I would be very disappointed if I got this question wrong!

0:17:270:17:31

The cello is a string instrument,

0:17:320:17:35

so I'm going to go for string.

0:17:350:17:37

It would be one of the great TV moments if you got it wrong,

0:17:370:17:41

but it is the right answer.

0:17:410:17:43

Well done.

0:17:430:17:45

So, Kevin, your question. Which girl's name was the title

0:17:450:17:49

of a 2007 UK hit single by the Kaiser Chiefs?

0:17:490:17:54

Repeated quite a lot. Ruby.

0:17:580:18:00

You're quite right. Lewis,

0:18:010:18:04

your second question. During the 1980s, a singer named Fish was the front man of which group?

0:18:040:18:09

This doesn't jump out instantly to me.

0:18:130:18:16

I'm not particularly a massive fan of these sort of bands.

0:18:160:18:22

I think I'm going to rule out Haircut 100 for some reason.

0:18:270:18:31

Um...

0:18:310:18:33

Marillion is ringing some bells. I don't know why.

0:18:350:18:40

Um...

0:18:400:18:41

Yes, I'm going to go with Marillion.

0:18:460:18:48

-Great guess, you're right.

-Yes!

0:18:490:18:53

I think probably

0:18:530:18:55

doing their best stuff before you were born.

0:18:550:18:58

But anyway, well done.

0:18:580:19:00

Your question, Kevin. On which 1987 Michael Jackson album

0:19:000:19:04

does the song Smooth Criminal feature?

0:19:040:19:06

You might have got me here. I'm not a Michael Jackson fan, I'm afraid.

0:19:100:19:14

Thriller is earlier than 1987, so it's not that.

0:19:140:19:17

I'm thinking maybe Bad was earlier than that as well.

0:19:190:19:22

So even though I'm not sure it's the title of a Michael Jackson album,

0:19:220:19:26

I'll say Dangerous.

0:19:260:19:28

Ai-ee!

0:19:280:19:29

The little squeak you heard was not the studio mouse, it was CJ,

0:19:290:19:33

-in pain because you got it wrong.

-Ah. Yeah.

0:19:330:19:37

-The answer is Bad.

-CJ SOBS

0:19:370:19:39

Did you know that, Lewis?

0:19:390:19:42

-I did, yeah.

-Did you?

-I did.

-So you have a chance now

0:19:420:19:44

to knock Kevin out if you get this right, and believe me, it doesn't happen very often.

0:19:440:19:50

-Right.

-Which musical features the song High Flying, Adored?

0:19:500:19:54

Wow! Chris is probably screaming this at me,

0:19:580:20:00

because he's pretty knowledgeable when it comes to musicals.

0:20:000:20:04

It's not really my forte. Um...

0:20:040:20:07

High Flying, Adored.

0:20:070:20:11

OK, well...

0:20:110:20:13

I am going to rule out Chess and Evita,

0:20:150:20:17

just because it sounds as though it's from Jesus Christ Superstar.

0:20:170:20:21

It just sounds like the type of title that would come from...

0:20:210:20:25

..the type of track that would come from that musical.

0:20:270:20:30

So I'm going to go for Jesus Christ Superstar.

0:20:300:20:33

That's your answer.

0:20:330:20:35

-Do you know the answer, Kevin?

-I don't, actually.

-You don't?!

-No.

0:20:350:20:39

I'd have gone for that as well, probably.

0:20:390:20:42

-You would have both been wrong. It's Evita.

-Oh, OK.

0:20:420:20:46

-So it stays level.

-DAPHNE: O-o-oh!

0:20:460:20:50

So, Kevin, your question.

0:20:500:20:52

The opera Dido And Aeneas is a work by which English composer?

0:20:520:20:58

Er, it's Purcell. Henry Purcell.

0:21:040:21:07

It is Henry Purcell. You're right.

0:21:070:21:09

And that means the scores are level after three questions each.

0:21:090:21:13

We now go to sudden death.

0:21:130:21:15

To make it harder, these questions will not be multiple choice.

0:21:150:21:18

So, Lewis, your first question on sudden death. Who duetted with Kylie Minogue

0:21:180:21:24

on the 1980s hit single Especially For You?

0:21:240:21:28

I'm trying to picture the video for it.

0:21:320:21:35

I don't know this track particularly well.

0:21:350:21:38

Um...

0:21:380:21:40

Yeah, early Kylie is not a strong point for me.

0:21:400:21:43

But...um...

0:21:430:21:44

I'm going to... I don't know why, but George Michael's name

0:21:480:21:53

seems to be standing out. Not sure why.

0:21:530:21:56

Time period, I guess.

0:21:590:22:01

Er...although...

0:22:030:22:04

has he done a duet with Kylie?

0:22:040:22:06

I don't know. I'm going to go for George Michael.

0:22:060:22:09

-George Michael is your answer.

-Yeah.

-Let me try Chris on this, with your musical knowledge, Chris.

0:22:090:22:15

It's not Jason Donovan, is it?

0:22:150:22:17

It is Jason Donovan, yeah. Wrong answer, Lewis. Sorry.

0:22:170:22:21

So, Kevin, for the round.

0:22:220:22:24

Sailing and Do You Think I'm Sexy? were UK number one hit singles for which singer?

0:22:240:22:30

Rod Stewart.

0:22:300:22:32

Quite right. Well done.

0:22:320:22:34

Knocked out one of the Jazzers. Well done, Kevin.

0:22:340:22:37

Lewis, you were beaten by our Egghead.

0:22:370:22:39

As a result, you won't be able to help your team in the final round.

0:22:390:22:43

Would you please both come back to the studio?

0:22:430:22:45

So this is what we've been playing towards. It's time for our final round,

0:22:460:22:50

which, as always, is General Knowledge.

0:22:500:22:52

But those of you who lost your head to heads

0:22:520:22:54

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

0:22:540:22:58

So, Steve and Lewis from the the Jazzers,

0:22:580:23:01

and Judith and Chris from our Eggheads, would you please leave the studio?

0:23:010:23:05

Pete, Chris and Tom, you are playing to win the Jazzers that 15,000.

0:23:060:23:10

Kevin, CJ and Daphne, you'll play for something which money can't buy.

0:23:100:23:15

It's the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:150:23:18

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

0:23:180:23:21

This time the questions are all General Knowledge. You are allowed to confer.

0:23:210:23:26

Jazzers, the question is are your three brains

0:23:260:23:29

better than the Eggheads' three?

0:23:290:23:31

Pete, Chris and Tom, would you like to take the first or second set of questions?

0:23:310:23:35

-Go first. Go for it.

-We'll go first.

0:23:350:23:38

Good luck, guys.

0:23:400:23:42

Which artist is famous for the catch phrase "Can you tell what it is yet?"

0:23:420:23:47

-It's Rolf, isn't it?

-Yeah.

0:23:470:23:48

That's gotta be Rolf.

0:23:520:23:53

-Rolf Harris.

-The daytime legend.

0:23:530:23:55

It is Rolf Harris. Well done. I like the way you shouted "Rolf"

0:23:550:23:59

-before I'd given you the options.

-Sorry.

-No, that's fine! Very confident.

0:23:590:24:04

Eggheads, which rock group provided the soundtrack for the 1980 film Flash Gordon?

0:24:040:24:10

-It's Queen, isn't it?

-Queen.

0:24:120:24:14

They also did Highlander. It's Queen.

0:24:140:24:17

It is Queen.

0:24:170:24:19

Second question to you, Jazzers.

0:24:190:24:21

The Frenchman Yannick Noah represented his country at senior level

0:24:210:24:27

in which sport during the 1980s?

0:24:270:24:29

-I don't think it's tennis.

-I haven't heard...

0:24:330:24:36

-We would have heard of him if he was a tennis player.

-Yeah.

0:24:360:24:40

-You drawing a blank?

-Don't you think

0:24:410:24:44

-you'd have heard of him if he was a footballer?

-I don't think I would.

0:24:440:24:48

-Didn't say he was a good one, though.

-Yeah.

0:24:480:24:51

Just at senior level.

0:24:510:24:53

-'80s tennis players...

-Could be a tennis player.

0:24:530:24:57

I think I'm going for football.

0:24:590:25:01

-Yeah, why not? It's as good as any.

-We're going to guess at football.

0:25:010:25:05

You're guessing at football?

0:25:050:25:08

That's your answer, on the basis that he was a bad player

0:25:080:25:11

and that's why you haven't heard of him.

0:25:110:25:14

Eggheads, you know the answer?

0:25:140:25:16

His son is actually a professional footballer.

0:25:160:25:18

Yannick Noah was the last Frenchman to win the French Open tennis.

0:25:180:25:22

-Oh, wow!

-In, CJ?

0:25:220:25:25

-'84?

-Three.

-Three, ah.

-'83, says Kevin. Bad luck, Jazzers.

0:25:250:25:29

Got it wrong, the answer was tennis.

0:25:290:25:32

Eggheads,

0:25:330:25:34

what is the meaning of the word "alacrity"?

0:25:340:25:36

What is the meaning of the word "alacrity"?

0:25:410:25:44

When you ask someone to do something with alacrity,

0:25:440:25:47

you want it done quickly - it's "briskness".

0:25:470:25:50

Correct answer.

0:25:500:25:51

So, Jazzers, you have been a great team to have on.

0:25:530:25:57

Don't let it end like this.

0:25:570:25:59

If you get this question wrong, you've lost the chance of the money.

0:25:590:26:04

-Yeah.

-In ancient Egyptian mythology,

0:26:040:26:07

Sobek was a god with the body of a man and the head of which animal?

0:26:070:26:13

I don't know anything. But when he said "crocodile" I saw a...

0:26:180:26:22

A man with a crocodile's head.

0:26:220:26:24

But is that...

0:26:240:26:26

How Egyptian is it?

0:26:260:26:28

-Crocodiles?

-Do they like their cats in Egypt?

-They do. Yeah.

0:26:280:26:33

And he's a god.

0:26:330:26:35

I don't know.

0:26:350:26:37

-What's an ibis?

-Isn't that a bird?

0:26:370:26:39

-Don't know!

-Could be a bird!

0:26:390:26:42

Shall we go for crocodile?

0:26:420:26:44

Yeah, crocodile.

0:26:440:26:46

Er, we're going to go for our instinct, which was crocodile.

0:26:460:26:50

-You're right.

-Yes!

-I'm so relieved that you're right!

0:26:500:26:54

-Classic quiz playing!

-Well done. You're still in it, Jazzers.

0:26:540:26:58

Still, Eggheads have a chance to win with this question.

0:26:580:27:04

What is the wingspan of the Angel of the North, the sculpture in Gateshead completed in 1998?

0:27:040:27:11

-The first...

-What is the wingspan of the Angel of the North,

0:27:150:27:19

the sculpture in Gateshead completed in 1998?

0:27:190:27:23

-I would have no idea.

-I never went metric, so...

0:27:230:27:27

Something in the 50s occurred to me. That's what I was waiting to come up.

0:27:270:27:31

And I only work in metres. 94 just seems too big, anyway.

0:27:310:27:34

-That's fine. We'll go for that.

-Go on.

0:27:340:27:36

Knowing our luck, it'll be 134. But we'll go for 54 metres, Jeremy.

0:27:360:27:41

Your answer...

0:27:410:27:43

is correct.

0:27:430:27:44

Congratulations, Eggheads, you've won.

0:27:440:27:48

Commiserations to our challengers.

0:27:530:27:56

The Eggheads have done what comes naturally and their winning streak continues.

0:27:560:27:59

I'm afraid, Jazzers, you won't be going home with £15,000.

0:27:590:28:03

Hurts me to say that.

0:28:030:28:05

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

0:28:050:28:08

Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?

0:28:080:28:10

Join us next time to see if the new challengers have the brains

0:28:100:28:13

to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:130:28:15

£16,000 says they don't.

0:28:150:28:17

Till then, goodbye.
