00:16expert subject, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Emily, public servant, expert subject, Geordie Shore,
00:27Siamac, Maxillofacial Surgery Registrar, expert subject, Silence of the Lambs, here's your
00:35host Tom Gleeson.
00:37Yes!
00:38Hello!
00:39My undies are on backwards.
00:42Welcome to hard quiz, these contestants are beach umbrellas.
00:45Last one to get blown away will be tonight's hard quiz champion.
00:50To be part of the show at home, go to the ABC ivy socials.
00:53Let's say hello.
00:54G'day, Siamac.
00:56Hello Tom.
00:56Now, Silence of the Lambs is your expert subject.
01:00Is it a great date movie?
01:03Yeah, I once played it on a first date just to see if the date could put up with my
01:09sense
01:10of humour.
01:10Oh.
01:12Oh.
01:13It's very dark.
01:15The laugh's creeping me out, I'll be honest.
01:19So was there a second date?
01:20We dated for two years, but I'm now married.
01:23Oh.
01:23To somebody else.
01:24To somebody else?
01:25Yes.
01:25And that date, the other date is in your freezer.
01:30Okay, well I've got to ask if you're a surgeon.
01:32Yes.
01:37Well, I'm just saying, you already have experience sewing human flesh.
01:41Correct.
01:41Yeah.
01:42So, did the movie inspire you to get your job?
01:49No, I think Anthony Hopkins is very inspirational with his acting.
01:54And if I wasn't doing surgery, like I said on my application, I would consider doing psychiatry,
01:59like some of my good friends.
02:02Now, you work in facial surgery.
02:04Right.
02:05Have you ever peeled off someone's whole face?
02:08That is one of the approaches that we use to reconstruct the upper part of the face,
02:13without putting a scar on their face.
02:14Oh.
02:15If someone has hair.
02:16Okay.
02:24Emily.
02:25Hi.
02:26Now you're a fan of Geordie Shaw.
02:27Yup.
02:28Which is a reality show about drunk British idiots.
02:34So, how did you hear about hard quiz?
02:37It doesn't feel like a hard quiz subject.
02:39How did you hear about hard quiz or the ABC?
02:45I actually just randomly know a lot about nothing.
02:48Now you've completed four university degrees.
02:51Sorry.
02:51No, no, no.
02:52I started.
02:53You started.
02:55Four university degrees.
03:02Did all that pesky studying get in the road of watching reality TV?
03:06Yeah, that's probably it.
03:08Yeah.
03:08They kept releasing Shaw after Shaw.
03:10I mean, what was I supposed to do?
03:12What's the hex debt for achieving absolutely nothing?
03:17Well, it's zero now, if you must know.
03:19Oh, is it?
03:20Yes.
03:20Oh, you had to pay it down.
03:21Paid it down.
03:22Okay.
03:23Alright.
03:23Blake.
03:24Tommy.
03:25Explain jiu-jitsu to us because for me it just looks like slightly aggressive cuddling.
03:30Yeah.
03:32If a little man like me gets in a fight with a big ugly dude like you, I'll put you
03:37to sleep
03:38and you'll wake up without any injuries.
03:40Yeah.
03:41Just render you unconscious and leave you be.
03:43You'd just get tangled in me, would you?
03:45Yeah.
03:46Yeah.
03:47In an aggressive way or a loving...
03:50That's up to you.
03:50Okay.
03:53Now, you used to be an underground sewer mechanic.
03:56Oh, yeah.
03:57London.
03:57Is that another way of saying proctologist?
04:01Similar jobs.
04:03So you were working down in the sewer pipes?
04:04Yeah.
04:05Did you see some turtles down there that taught you jiu-jitsu?
04:08No.
04:09You saw a cow down there.
04:13Hi.
04:15Lindy.
04:15Tom.
04:16Now, your friends talked you into coming on the show but they thought you were going
04:19to come here and talk about caftans.
04:20Is that right?
04:21That's exactly right.
04:22But you are not talking about caftans.
04:24What are you talking about?
04:25I'm talking about the Holden Racing Team.
04:26Which goes really well with caftans.
04:29It's not...
04:29So why do you like Holden?
04:31Australian.
04:32Yeah.
04:33Fast.
04:34Red.
04:35Loud.
04:36Smelly.
04:38All of the above.
04:39These are a couple of headlights you've collected.
04:42Yes.
04:42And they've been signed by the drivers.
04:44Yes.
04:44Were they excited when you asked them to sign your headlights?
04:50No.
04:51No.
04:52But I did have a friend who asked me why they sent me one that was broken.
04:55Oh.
04:56Why didn't they send me a new one?
04:58And I thought, I can't dignify that with an answer.
05:00It's part of the wreckage, isn't it?
05:01Yeah.
05:02That's part of the thrill.
05:02Yeah.
05:02You don't get the new bits.
05:04Now, if you ask me to sign your headlights, I just want to say, I can't do it.
05:09If HR is around.
05:13Now, here's you and Mark Scaife.
05:15He's known for being a bit prickly, isn't he?
05:17He could be.
05:18He's a lot mellower now, apparently.
05:20Was he prickly when he met you?
05:22Not at that time, no.
05:23Is he nice in real life?
05:25Seemed to be, yeah.
05:26I'm a bit prickly too, but in real life I'm more of an asshole.
05:31Alright, let's play.
05:32Hard!
05:40I'll ask each of you five questions on your expert subject.
05:42Right, you get five points.
05:44Wrong, I will take five points from you.
05:45The rest of you can steal at any time to get double points.
05:47Let's start with Lindy and her expert subject, the Holden Racing Team.
05:53Are you rigging your engines over there, Lindy?
05:56Definitely.
05:56Can you show me?
06:03During their 1990 debut season, the Holden Racing Team earned their first win as underdogs in which race?
06:10Lindy.
06:10Bathurst.
06:11Correct.
06:15Is it true that they won, basically, because all the other cars broke down?
06:19Partly.
06:20It was their first winner.
06:21It was kind of a Bradbury, wasn't it?
06:23It definitely was, because they didn't do much good for several years after that.
06:27Now, I've pulled in a favour to ask this next question.
06:30Hi, this is Mark Scaife.
06:32The Holden Racing Team that I was part of was fortunate enough to win five consecutive
06:37Drivers' Championships and became known for its ruthless dominance.
06:41So we ended up copying the nickname, The Evil What?
06:46Lindy.
06:47Empire.
06:48Correct!
06:53I wonder how Scaifey felt about that.
06:56The Evil Empire was a bit of an unfair nickname.
06:59We were the best in the country at that time, and they were just jealous.
07:03You know what that's like, Tom?
07:08Shut up, Scaifey.
07:11Despite Holden falling out with him years earlier, in 1994, the team recruited which legendary driver?
07:17For the Steelers, Blake?
07:18Craig Lounds.
07:20Incorrect.
07:20For the Steelers, CMA?
07:21Peter Brock.
07:22Correct!
07:34Yeah, from HRT to its rival manufacturer, Ford is correct.
07:44Lindy, weren't you a Ford fan before you were a Holden fan?
07:47In the last century, when I was a kid, but changed sides.
07:51Right, what happened?
07:52Got a V8 Tirana.
07:59Last question in your set, Lindy.
08:00Commonly seen on HRT cars and uniforms is an iconic logo.
08:05To the Steelers, CMA?
08:06A lion.
08:08Incorrect.
08:08Lindy?
08:09Lion and helmet.
08:10Correct!
08:13An iconic logo featuring a lion, and what protective equipment?
08:17Helmet is correct.
08:18Yeah, the lion's got a lot of head injuries, by the way.
08:22Next set of questions is for Blake, on Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
08:28Brazilian Jiu Jitsu emphasises ground combat and leverage over striking.
08:33Developed from Japanese martial arts and popularised by a Brazilian family with what surname?
08:38Blake?
08:39Gracie.
08:40Correct!
08:43A Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fighter dominated the very first UFC match.
08:48Blake?
08:49Hoist Gracie.
08:51Incorrect.
08:52I'll finish the question.
08:53A competition conceived as a real-life version of which arcade game?
08:57Who to steal at CMA?
08:58Tekken.
09:00Incorrect.
09:00It's wide open.
09:02Emily for the steal.
09:04Tekken Street Fight.
09:06Incorrect.
09:10Time's up.
09:11Mortal Kombat.
09:13Yes.
09:14Hoist Gracie won the first Ultimate Fighting Championship,
09:17which exposed BJJ to the world.
09:19That's Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
09:21BJJ.
09:22Not...
09:25Like Mortal Kombat, it's enjoyed by nerds who can't get girlfriends, by the way.
09:31Disrupting blood flow to an opponent's brain, this choke is named after what geometric shape,
09:37Blake?
09:37Triangle.
09:39Correct!
09:44So to win a BJJ fight you try to cut off your opponent's blood or air flow, is that right?
09:48Correct.
09:49Like how do you not kill them?
09:51They'll tap out if they're feeling like they're about to go out.
09:56But what if they tap out by entering the afterlife?
10:01Hopefully there's a referee there to stop it.
10:04One of the highest ranks in BJJ is known as Coral Belt, based on a resemblance to which animal?
10:10Blake?
10:10A snake.
10:11Correct.
10:15Last question in your set, Blake.
10:18Celebrity BJJ fans include podcaster Joe Rogan, comedian Russell Brand and which director of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels?
10:25Blake?
10:26Guy Ritchie.
10:27Correct!
10:31Time now for Emily and Geordie Shaw.
10:36Named for people from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Geordie Shaw is the UK version of which MTV reality series from the
10:43USA?
10:43Emily?
10:44Jersey Shaw.
10:45Correct!
10:49Charlotte is an original cast member, appearing in 14 seasons, and the first time she describes Gaz's penis...
10:55Is it still us, Blake?
10:56A parsnip.
10:58Correct!
11:00That was nice for you!
11:03She describes Gaz's penis, she compares it to what root vegetable?
11:08Parsnip is correct.
11:10Which way round? What have it been going?
11:14Yeah.
11:15So, do you watch Geordie Shaw too, Blake?
11:17Not anymore.
11:21In the first season, most of the cast are in their 20s, and in the opening credits Jay says,
11:26My biggest fear is getting what?
11:28Wrinkles.
11:29Correct!
11:32Yeah, his biggest fear should be making a tit of himself on global TV.
11:37My biggest fear is watching the show.
11:40A love triangle develops between Chloe, Abby and newcomer Sam, who joins...
11:45Emily?
11:46If you're about to ask the season, he joins season...16.
11:50Incorrect, I'll finish the question.
11:52Who joins the cast after appearing on which other raunchy reality show?
11:57Put a steal, Blake!
11:58Love Island?
12:00Correct!
12:01Double bums to you!
12:08I didn't think this would happen.
12:11I wasn't picturing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu taking up Geordie Shaw.
12:16Last question in your set, Emily.
12:18Geordie Shaw stars have launched cosmetics, underwear, memoirs, as well as nutrition and personal training services, with Holly releasing a
12:27cover of which song by Khalees?
12:30It's wide open.
12:33Oh, I don't know this.
12:36Time's up.
12:37Milkshake.
12:39The question could have been, name a song by Khalees.
12:47Yeah, Milkshake.
12:49This is going to shock you.
12:50It did not chart.
12:53Last set in the expert round, it's CMAC and The Silence of the Lambs.
13:00In The Silence of the Lambs, cannibal psychiatrist Hannibal Lecter is interviewed by Clarice Starling, a trainee at which law
13:07enforcement agency?
13:08FBI.
13:10Correct!
13:14The film won the Big Five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, despite protests on Oscar night that accused the movie
13:20of what?
13:22CMAC.
13:24Accused the movie of anti-LBG, like transphobia essentially.
13:30Correct!
13:33Yeah, transphobia, homophobia, perpetuating gay stereotypes.
13:37Here's Laura Dern on Oscars night talking about the protest.
13:40It's time that films start portraying homosexuality not as sort of some bizarre sickness and just as normalcy.
13:51Remember the good old days when celebrities' opinions made a difference?
13:56Hannibal Lecter claims to have eaten the liver of a census taker with fava beans and CMAC.
14:01Chianti.
14:02Correct!
14:04And what Italian wine? Chianti is correct.
14:08Do you want to do the creepy slurp?
14:10No. No.
14:11Come on, we're all here.
14:15Come on.
14:17Only if I win.
14:21Posters for the film featured Jodie Foster's mouth covered by what insect?
14:25CMAC.
14:26Moth.
14:27Correct!
14:31Last question in your set, CMAC.
14:34The title, The Silence of the Lambs, refers to Agent Starling's memory of trying to save a screaming lamb.
14:40CMAC.
14:42From slaughter.
14:43Correct!
14:45From what process?
14:47Slaughter is correct.
14:48Five for five!
14:54By the way, slaughter is also what happens when you lead through these doors.
15:11Marty's got a taste for flesh.
15:14Alright, we'll chew through this, so just now let's chew through mine.
15:18Kong's round.
15:19Kong's subject.
15:20Multiple choice.
15:23This week I've been really getting into spoons.
15:26I love spoons.
15:27A spoon is the perfect tool to enjoy my three biggest passions.
15:31Ice cream, soup and heroin.
15:34With multiple choice, select your answers on your screens and press the buzzer to lock in the answer.
15:38There is no spoon is an iconic line from which film?
15:42A, 2001 A Space Odyssey.
15:44B, The Matrix.
15:45C, My Dinner with Andre.
15:46D, Inception.
15:55The answer is B, The Matrix.
16:01Covered in thousands of spoons, this car is in a museum dedicated to which illusionist?
16:06A, Harry Houdini.
16:08B, David Copperfield.
16:09C, David Blaine.
16:10D, Uri Geller.
16:13The answer is D, Uri Geller.
16:21Created in the 1800s, this type of spoon was specifically designed to do what?
16:26A, Stop your lips going numb eating ice cream.
16:29B, Shield a man's moustache from soup.
16:32C, Pour exactly one serve of sugar into coffee.
16:34D, Evenly distribute tea leaves in a cup of tea.
16:41The answer is B, Shield a man's moustache from soup.
16:48Yeah, moustaches were popular at the time and the soup guard stopped soup getting in there and melting the moustache
16:54wax.
16:54Here's how it worked.
17:00Yeah, it doesn't even work. Look, he's got it in his moustache.
17:05Look at this idiot.
17:08Which of these is an example of a spoonerism?
17:11A, Litty-kitter.
17:12B, Misunderestimated.
17:14C, Deafening silence.
17:16D, NASA.
17:20The answer is A, Litty-kitter.
17:27Yes, fanerism is a phrase where the sounds are swapped, like Litty-kitter instead of Kitty-litter, or describing contestants
17:34as shining wits.
17:46I'm enjoying the fact that half of you still don't know what happened.
17:51Last question in my rounds were double points.
17:54Awarding a wooden spoon to someone finishing in last place is a tradition that reportedly originated where?
18:15The answer is A, at Cambridge University.
18:24Alright, at the end of my round, Emily, you're at the bottom on minus five. Get over here.
18:35What do you think happened?
18:36Guess I got too mortal before I came here.
18:39Did you really get stuck in, did you?
18:41Looks like it.
18:42Well, you're the first one to leave now, which means that you've come last.
18:45So, Marty?
18:51You ready to go?
18:56There she goes.
19:01Alright.
19:02It's a people's round.
19:03The people's round against the clock.
19:06Clap your hair, player.
19:07I'm at home.
19:08Your time starts now.
19:10What is the tallest land mammal?
19:12Blake.
19:13Giraffe.
19:13Yes.
19:14Trois is French for what number?
19:17Siamat.
19:17Three.
19:18Yes.

19:23Pokemon.
19:24Yes.
19:24Which Japanese franchise?
19:26Pokemon is correct.
19:27The Sagrada Familia is a church in which Spanish city?
19:30Blake.
19:31Barcelona.
19:32Yes.

19:36Blake.
19:37Prince George.
19:38Yes.
19:40In photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide and release what other gas?
19:44Blake.
19:45Oxygen.
19:46Yes.
19:47Emmeline Pankhurst fought for voting rights for which group of people?
19:51Lindy.
19:52Women.
19:53Yes.
19:53Time's up.
19:54Got there just in time.
19:57Alright, at the end of the people's round, Lindy, you're at the bottom on 30.
20:00Get over here.
20:07Maybe you should have gone with Bored.
20:10I'm not that much of a loser.
20:14If you had your time again, would you do anything differently?
20:17I'd get a few more right answers.
20:20Alright, you ready to drive on out of here?
20:22I am.
20:22Out!
20:24There she goes.
20:29Alright, only to the left, who's going to be the Hard Quiz champion?
20:32Blake and Ciamac.
20:33Get over here because it's time to play Hard Quiz.
20:36Final round.
20:37Head to head.
20:38Brazilian Jiu Jitsu versus Silence of the Lambs.
20:42Hard Quiz.
20:44Now, there can only be one Hard Quiz champion who gets to take home the limited edition Big Brass
20:48mug.
20:48What will you do with the mug if you win, Ciamac?
20:51Probably tie some rope around the handle and put some lotion in it.
21:00Sounds a bit off, but I like it.
21:03What about you, Blake?
21:04Looks like a good storage bin for all my gold medals.
21:07All my past ones and my future gold medals can all go in there.
21:10Good to have an ambition.
21:12Yeah.
21:13It's Best of Five penalty shootout style, harder questions on your expert subjects.
21:16So it's Blake's knowledge of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu versus Ciamac's knowledge of the Silence of the Lambs.
21:21Let's play.
21:22Hard!
21:26I thought you might have a sip of Chianti out of it.
21:29And what would that sound like?
21:37I've got a career to build.
21:39It's just a disaster.
21:40Your career's already...
21:42Let's go on.
21:43Forget about it.
21:45Now every patient's gonna imagine you wearing their face.
21:49Blake.
21:50The International Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Federation announced in 2022 that prize money and ranking
21:56points would be forfeited if athletes in competition finals committed what act?
22:04Steroid use?
22:07Incorrect.
22:08The correct answer is closing out.
22:11Ah yes.
22:13Yeah agreeing not to fight.
22:14Teammates.
22:15If two teammates get into the finals they agree not to fight.
22:19Yes.
22:19So why's that?
22:20Some teammates are like brothers.
22:22They don't want to hurt each other.
22:24But isn't it also cause then you can win the whole competition.
22:26You can conspire.
22:27Yeah.
22:28So if you forfe...
22:29You can forfeit and then the other one goes through without any effort.
22:33Yeah.
22:33But it doesn't make for much entertainment.
22:35No.
22:36No.
22:36It's silly.
22:43See you Mac.
22:44In The Silence of the Lambs, Lecter gives hints using the names Lewis Friend and Hester Moffat.
22:51Mm-hmm.
22:52Which Starling decodes as anagrams for iron sulphide and what?
23:01I think a slow think about this one Tom.
23:04I do remember it from earlier today.
23:07Can it?
23:10It's probably going to be easy if you just remember it from the film rather than rearrange the letters.
23:18We're not trying to do Wordle live here.
23:23The...
23:24Four.
23:26That's my answer.
23:27It's terrible.
23:28Incorrect.
23:29The correct answer is the rest of me.
23:31The rest of me.
23:32Blake.
23:33Winning all four major IBJJF events in a season in both a weight class and the open weight competition
23:41is considered a double grand slam.
23:44The first adult black belt to achieve it three years in a row was which athlete?
23:51Marcelo Garcia.
23:53Or Roger Gracie.
24:00Or none of the above.

27:23See you, Mac.
