0:00:24 > 0:00:30Thank you very much indeed. I'm Alexander Armstrong. Welcome to a celebrity edition of Pointless,
0:00:30 > 0:00:36the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test. Every single question was asked to 100 people.
0:00:36 > 0:00:41To be in with a chance of winning our final round jackpot,
0:00:41 > 0:00:46our celebrities need to come up with the answers the fewest people could think of.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50Let's meet today's Pointless celebrities.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57First up, we welcome Jenni Falconer and Matt Johnson!
0:01:02 > 0:01:07Now as presenters on ITV's This Morning, you must have met countless people
0:01:07 > 0:01:12from all sorts of spheres of life, so you'll be SO well prepared.
0:01:12 > 0:01:17- I've even met you before, so that is it.- Hey, there you go. - Fraternising?
0:01:17 > 0:01:21- You could swap notes, possibly. - He's not been any help.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25You're assuming I know what I'm talking about. I have no idea!
0:01:25 > 0:01:29- I don't even know the rounds. Matt, you've worked on OK TV.- Yeah.
0:01:29 > 0:01:36- Who's the most interesting person you've met?- On OK TV, we talked about Justin Bieber and Cheryl Cole.
0:01:36 > 0:01:41- You loved Justin Bieber.- I'm one of his biggest fans, literally.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45- Did you get to meet the Bieber? - A few times. More than enough.
0:01:45 > 0:01:51- Jenni, what's a brilliant subject for you?- I think we'll both be pretty good at showbiz stories,
0:01:51 > 0:01:57film. I love film. For years, I've interviewed movie stars, so I've had to go and see movies.
0:01:57 > 0:02:03- I've seen quite a lot of films. - Any surprising little niche categories you'll be brilliant on?
0:02:03 > 0:02:09- I studied languages at university. Only romance languages. No Germanics.- OK.
0:02:09 > 0:02:15- If we get anything wrong, we have come to the conclusion that we'll blame Matt.- Yeah.- Seems fair.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- Seems fair. - Well, very best of luck with that.
0:02:18 > 0:02:24It's lovely to have you here. Next we welcome Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry!
0:02:29 > 0:02:33Now we know you as judges on the Great British Bake-Off,
0:02:33 > 0:02:39- but you have backstories that go back and back and back! Mary, you've written over 50 books?- About right.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43I was writing cookery books before there were computers.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45- Wow.- I'm old!
0:02:45 > 0:02:50- Paul, you've written a book called 100 Great Breads.- That's right. - Very good.
0:02:50 > 0:02:55- We're writing one of those. - Yeah. We've got One: White.
0:02:55 > 0:03:02- Two was...- Brown.- Three: Granary. - Em...- Then we're, to be honest, slightly stuck after that.
0:03:02 > 0:03:06I actually think I'm starting on a losing foot here.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10I've already lost to Richard on Weirdest Crush.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13- Ah! Heat magazine. - Yes. Congratulations.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17- Thank you(!) - Where did you come, Paul?
0:03:17 > 0:03:21- 17th. - At least you're on the list!
0:03:21 > 0:03:23- At least!- Yeah, exactly.
0:03:23 > 0:03:28Best of luck. It's lovely to have you here. Next we welcome JK and Joel!
0:03:35 > 0:03:40A multiple award-winning radio double act, TV double act.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44- How long have you been working together?- Since...- Too long.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- 1996.- Yeah. - So that's...a few years.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51- Sixteen years.- Ish. - How did you meet?
0:03:51 > 0:03:58We met at a radio station in Hull, of all places. We got put together because I was being late at 3pm
0:03:58 > 0:04:01for my afternoon show.
0:04:01 > 0:04:07So instead of sacking me they put me on his show in the morning, reading traffic and travel.
0:04:07 > 0:04:12- JK, what do you hope comes up? - I think for both of us Music would be good.- Clearly.
0:04:12 > 0:04:17- Being in the radio industry. - Joel, what are your hot subjects?
0:04:17 > 0:04:22Really weird, but soaps, Prisoner: Cell Block H, wrestling, horse racing, darts.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Anything more specific than that(?)
0:04:25 > 0:04:29- Em, top dogs in Prisoner: Cell Block H?- OK.
0:04:29 > 0:04:34- Life and times of... Prisoner: Cell Block H.- You love that.- I do.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38JK and Joel, lovely to have you on the show. Very best of luck.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42Finally, we've got Jennie Bond and Ben Cannon!
0:04:45 > 0:04:51Well, Jennie, we know you best as a TV presenter and former BBC royal correspondent.
0:04:51 > 0:04:56- Please introduce your fellow team player.- This is lovely Ben. He's my nephew.
0:04:56 > 0:05:03- I brought him along for the brain power of youth.- First mistake of the evening!- Mine is fading.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07- What do you do, Ben?- I'm a farmer. - A farmer.- I am a farmer.
0:05:07 > 0:05:13- Jennie...- Yes.- Royal correspondent, but you must have travelled. The Commonwealth is brilliant for you.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17- Is it?- You are going to be dazzling! - Alexander, I am terrified.
0:05:17 > 0:05:25- I am standing here quaking. - I don't think you've ever quaked in your life.- I have!- Now, Ben...
0:05:25 > 0:05:31- Yes.- What is going to be your specialist area?- Music. Too many hours spent on a tractor
0:05:31 > 0:05:38- listening to JK and Joel. - Jennie, have you any strange...? - My husband was a country music DJ,
0:05:38 > 0:05:44so I know lots of really outrageous country music songs. Will I remember any? Probably not.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48Jennie, Ben, lovely to have you here. Very best of luck.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52We'll discover all your hidden knowledge throughout the show.
0:05:52 > 0:05:59There's only one person left. If you had to phone a friend, he's the one, but he won't give me his number!
0:05:59 > 0:06:03- He is my Pointless friend, Richard. - Hiya!
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Hello.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09- Oh, wow. How are you? - I'm extremely well, Richard.
0:06:09 > 0:06:15- And you?- Very well. I like these celebrity specials. They're more nervous than usual!
0:06:15 > 0:06:17And yet they're always on TV.
0:06:17 > 0:06:23The good news is one of our pairs - you don't know this - has baked us a lovely cake.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27- No!- Yeah. The bad news is it was JK and Joel.
0:06:28 > 0:06:34Very good. Thank you, Richard. All our questions have been put to 100 people before the show,
0:06:34 > 0:06:38but we are looking for the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:06:38 > 0:06:43To be in with a chance of winning our jackpot, our celebrities must score as few points as they can.
0:06:43 > 0:06:49Everyone is trying to find a pointless answer that none of our 100 people knew.
0:06:49 > 0:06:56When that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot. As today's show is a celebrity special,
0:06:56 > 0:07:02each celebrity is playing for a nominated charity. And we start off with a jackpot of £2,500.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07OK, let's play Pointless.
0:07:13 > 0:07:18In this first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22The pair with the highest score will be eliminated.
0:07:22 > 0:07:27If you give me an incorrect answer, you will score 100 points, so try to avoid those.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31OK, our first category is... Words.
0:07:31 > 0:07:36Can you all decide who's going to go first and who's going to go second?
0:07:36 > 0:07:40Whoever's going first Please step up to the podium.
0:07:41 > 0:07:46OK, let's find out what the question is. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:07:46 > 0:07:52to name as many words ending in "..ash" as they could.
0:07:52 > 0:07:58- Words ending in "..ash". Richard? - Any word in the Oxford English Dictionary that ends "..ash".
0:07:58 > 0:08:04No hyphenated words and no proper nouns. We also won't allow the word "ash" itself.
0:08:04 > 0:08:10Right you are. Jenni and Matt, you all drew lots before the show and today you are going first.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13I'm going to go for slash.
0:08:13 > 0:08:20- You might have gone before the show! - You're right. I've got five minutes. Slash.- Let's see if that's correct.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24It might just be(!) And how many people said slash?
0:08:24 > 0:08:26It's right!
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- 25.- Oh, nice one.
0:08:32 > 0:08:3725. Not bad at all. Not bad at all. Richard?
0:08:37 > 0:08:44- A solid start. Can mean a cutting stroke, a cricket stroke... Can't think of anything else.- No.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Paul.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Em...clash.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53Clash says Paul. How many of our 100 people said clash?
0:08:54 > 0:08:56Well, it's right.
0:09:00 > 0:09:0123!
0:09:01 > 0:09:04This is all going in the right direction.
0:09:06 > 0:09:12- For fun, Richard, clash. - I find myself slightly redundant trying to explain what clash means.
0:09:12 > 0:09:17JK, the most obscure word ending in "..ash" you can think of, please.
0:09:17 > 0:09:22- I would have gone for that one. - I think there are a couple of others.
0:09:22 > 0:09:29But that was a good one. Can I congratulate you on that? I'm going to go for...whiplash.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33Oh, this is good. This is good. Whiplash.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37Let's see how many of our 100 people said whiplash.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39It's right.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47There we are, you see.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51- Very well done, JK. - Thank you for choosing that one!
0:09:52 > 0:09:56- Very well done. Two for whiplash. - Best answer of the round so far.
0:09:56 > 0:10:02You can have whiplash in a car with your head or spine going backwards suddenly.
0:10:02 > 0:10:07- Now Jennie...- Yes.- The most obscure word ending in "..ash", please.
0:10:07 > 0:10:13I was trying to think a little bit outside the box. Then you doubt yourself. Have I spelt it right?
0:10:13 > 0:10:17Anyway, I'm going to try...leash.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- Well done. Leash.- Ohh! - Exactly. You see?
0:10:21 > 0:10:27Leash, says Jenny. Let's see if that's right and how many people said leash.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- It's right!- I spelt it right!
0:10:34 > 0:10:36- Go on, Jennie.- Very well done! Six!
0:10:36 > 0:10:38- Well done.- Six for leash.
0:10:40 > 0:10:46That's a great answer, Jennie. It doesn't sound like it has "..ash" so people forget it.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50Again, a leash. You have a dog on a leash. What do you want from me?
0:10:50 > 0:10:56OK, thank you very much. Halfway through the round. Let's look at the scores.
0:10:56 > 0:11:01- JK and Joel...- I don't know how. - An exemplary piece of scoring. Lovely low score of two.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Then six for Jennie and Ben.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07Then we go up to 23, Paul and Mary.
0:11:07 > 0:11:13Then 25, Matt and Jenni. So the grouping ain't bad. Jenni, some nice obscure words...
0:11:13 > 0:11:17Or just one, in fact, to ensure you remain with us.
0:11:17 > 0:11:22Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:11:24 > 0:11:28OK, we are looking for words ending in "..ash".
0:11:28 > 0:11:33Now, Ben, you are on six. The high scorers on 25 are Jenni and Matt.
0:11:33 > 0:11:39Should you score 18 or less, you are definitely through to the next round.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42OK, right. Balderdash.
0:11:42 > 0:11:47- Oh, he's good.- Yeah, he's good, isn't he?- You see?
0:11:47 > 0:11:52- He's good. - I think I said it right! - Balderdash says Ben. You're on six.
0:11:52 > 0:11:56Here is your red line. If you can get below that red line,
0:11:56 > 0:12:02balderdash will see you careering through to the next round. How many said balderdash?
0:12:02 > 0:12:04It's right.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08Down it goes...
0:12:08 > 0:12:10You are through to the next round. 10!
0:12:10 > 0:12:14- That's OK.- Very well done. It's kept you in.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19- 16 is your total. Richard? - Very well played, Ben.
0:12:19 > 0:12:26Every four years they hold a veterans' Olympics for athletes over 50
0:12:26 > 0:12:30and the 100 metres in that is the balderdash.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36Now then, Joel, you're two.
0:12:36 > 0:12:42You're the low scorers. The high scorers are Jenni and Matt on 25. A score of 22 or less
0:12:42 > 0:12:48- will see you through to the next round.- I think I'm going to go with a really bad film.
0:12:48 > 0:12:53- Splash. - OK, you're going to go with splash.
0:12:53 > 0:12:58There is your red line. Below that and you are definitely through.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00How many people said splash?
0:13:06 > 0:13:10Well done. Oh - 21. That'll do.
0:13:11 > 0:13:16That will do very nicely. That takes your total up to 23.
0:13:16 > 0:13:22- By the skin of your teeth there. Splash, come on.- It wasn't that bad a film!- It's a good film.- Lovely.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27A mermaid?! You can see her legs! It's stupid.
0:13:27 > 0:13:33- I'm not talking about the costume! - You want them to cast a real mermaid?!- Thank you very much.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Mary, words that end in "..ash".
0:13:36 > 0:13:42The high scorers remain on 25. A score of one or less will do you very nicely.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44It will see you through.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47I think I'm going to say thrash.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Thrash says Mary. Here's your red line.
0:13:51 > 0:13:57Ah, there it is. It's just above the grey line that is, in fact, the ground.
0:13:59 > 0:14:04Below that red line, you are definitely through. Good luck.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07How many of our 100 people said thrash?
0:14:07 > 0:14:10It's correct!
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Three!
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Wow!
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Three that scores you.
0:14:24 > 0:14:31It takes your total up to 26. Trust Mary to find the one word in that little category
0:14:31 > 0:14:37- that scores only three. - Terrific answer. Puts all the pressure on Jenni.- Well done, Mary.
0:14:37 > 0:14:44Which means, Jenni and Matt, you are on 25. Jenni, if you can score a pointless answer
0:14:44 > 0:14:48- you are definitely in the next round.- OK, right.
0:14:48 > 0:14:49Oh...
0:14:51 > 0:14:55- Let's go for squash. - Oh!- Oh, that's good.
0:14:55 > 0:15:00- I have spelt it right? It doesn't end "osh", does it?- Let's find out.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Squash, says Jenny.
0:15:02 > 0:15:07Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said squash.
0:15:07 > 0:15:13Well done. It's right. It has to go down to one or pointless.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Only two scores will see you through. Oh, no! Bad luck.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19It was a great answer.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22Seven is your score. 32 is your total.
0:15:22 > 0:15:27- Ah, squash.- Sorry, Jenni. You were doomed by Matt's slash.
0:15:27 > 0:15:32- Not for the first time. - I almost went for quash.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36- Funnily enough, quash was six. - That's all right, then.
0:15:36 > 0:15:42I'll give you a list of some pointless answers. There's some quite well-known words here.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Backsplash, brainwash, haberdash.
0:15:45 > 0:15:52Mouthwash is a pointless answer. Well done if you said that. Newsflash, overwash.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56- Pigwash. - JENNIE: You should have got that!
0:15:56 > 0:16:02Soundclash would have been a pointless answer, but who knows the word soundclash?
0:16:02 > 0:16:06And stonewash, also pointless. Well done if you got those at home.
0:16:06 > 0:16:10Let's look at the highest scorers.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Dash with 64. We've avoided all of these. Bash at 72.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17And right at the top, mash with 73.
0:16:17 > 0:16:22Very, very low scores and incredibly unlucky to be going out with 32.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- That's a low score. - Thank you, Richard.
0:16:25 > 0:16:30At the end of Round One, the losing pair is Jenni and Matt!
0:16:30 > 0:16:36- AUDIENCE SIGH - I know. The other thing we should be saying is, "It's all Matt's fault."
0:16:36 > 0:16:41- But we've loved it.- We've had a great day. We'll take the money.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45- OK.- Is there a mug we can have of some sorts?
0:16:45 > 0:16:51- We can find you a mug. - I'm happy with a mug. I'm from Wales.
0:16:51 > 0:16:57Several. Jenni and Matt, thank you so much for joining us. It's been lovely having you.
0:16:59 > 0:17:04But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Now there's only room for two celebrity pairs in the Head to Head
0:17:12 > 0:17:17so one of the teams in front of me now will leave after this round.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21The category for Round Two is... Fashion.
0:17:21 > 0:17:25Can you all decide in your pairs who's going first and who's second?
0:17:25 > 0:17:30Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:31 > 0:17:37OK, our Round Two question concerns famous models and their countries of birth.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41- Richard?- We're going to show you lists of six famous fashion models.
0:17:41 > 0:17:47You have to tell us the modern-day country in which they were born. An obscure answer scores fewer points.
0:17:47 > 0:17:53An incorrect answer scores 100 points. Twelve models in all, twelve countries to guess at home.
0:17:53 > 0:17:59As always, by country we mean a member of the UN, which is a sovereign state in its own right.
0:17:59 > 0:18:05So we are looking for the modern-day countries in which these models were born. And we have got...
0:18:05 > 0:18:07HE READS THE LIST
0:18:14 > 0:18:17I'll read those again.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26There they are.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30What we want from you is the countries in which they were born.
0:18:30 > 0:18:37If you can find the most obscure, the one that the fewest people knew, the better. Good luck.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40Mary, what do you make of that?
0:18:40 > 0:18:41Em...
0:18:41 > 0:18:46Carmen, I think, was born in Spain.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49- Carmen Kass.- Yes. - Spain, says Mary.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53Let's see if that's right and how many people knew that.
0:18:55 > 0:19:02Oh, bad luck. Unfortunately, that's an incorrect answer and you score the maximum 100 points.
0:19:02 > 0:19:07- I've a feeling that's not the last time we'll see that this round. Joel?- Do you know what's scary?
0:19:07 > 0:19:14- One of the ladies on the list actually lived above me in Manchester.- You two know everyone!
0:19:14 > 0:19:18- No, no, no...- It's true! - But I've no idea where she's from!
0:19:20 > 0:19:25I am going to take a stab, so to speak, at Linda Evangelista.
0:19:25 > 0:19:30And because her fella was French, I'm going to go French.
0:19:30 > 0:19:35Linda Evangelista, France. Let's see if that's right.
0:19:36 > 0:19:41Ah, no, but...! Her boyfriend at the time was French!
0:19:41 > 0:19:46Unfortunately, that was an incorrect answer. You also score 100 points.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48- It's fun, this round.- Isn't it?
0:19:48 > 0:19:53Mary, Joel got 100 points on a question about his next-door neighbour.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57So, Ben, it's up to you to tidy up.
0:19:57 > 0:20:03- Luckily, I think you know most of these.- Absolutely.- Fill in the board and pick the one you'd like.
0:20:03 > 0:20:09Absolutely. Specialist farming round. Jennie put me first as well. Thank you, Auntie(!)
0:20:09 > 0:20:15- I'm not sure whether to play safe or take a punt.- I tell you what, if you get a question right
0:20:15 > 0:20:21- you are well ahead of the game.- I can go home head high. I'll go safe, but I don't know if safe's safe.
0:20:21 > 0:20:27Elle Macpherson seems obvious, but it may be wrong. Australian.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Elle Macpherson, Australia, says Ben.
0:20:30 > 0:20:34This is the first time I've had the scent of possible correctness.
0:20:36 > 0:20:41- Oh, hang on. That's you. - Yeah, I'm wearing Possible Correctness by Lentheric.
0:20:42 > 0:20:49Ben, you said Elle Macpherson, Australia. Let's see if that's right and how many people knew that.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52Well done, Ben!
0:20:53 > 0:20:57- Well done. 54!- We'll take that. - We'll take that, yeah!
0:20:57 > 0:21:01- Fantastic.- That puts you well ahead of the game, Ben. 54.
0:21:01 > 0:21:08Well done, Ben. The biggest answer on the board, but it puts you in the driving seat.
0:21:08 > 0:21:15Heidi Klum, the next highest scorer. She is from Germany. She would have scored you 36 points.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19Gisele Bundchen is from Brazil. That would have scored 26.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23Helena Christensen is from Denmark and would have scored 17.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27Linda Evangelista is from Salford. That's a shame.
0:21:27 > 0:21:33- No, she's Canadian. - A French-Canadian!- Maybe. But certainly Canadian.
0:21:33 > 0:21:40Would have scored you four points. And Carmen Kass is the hardest answer. She is Estonian.
0:21:40 > 0:21:44- One point. We'd have been here all day to guess that.- We would.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Very well done if you got all six.
0:21:46 > 0:21:51Thank you. We're halfway through the round. Let's look at those scores.
0:21:51 > 0:21:5554 - Ben and Jennie, that's looking fantastic.
0:21:55 > 0:22:01And then nothing to divide Joel and JK and Mary and Paul, both of whom are on 100.
0:22:01 > 0:22:08It's a tussle between Paul and JK. Who knows the countries of origin of models better? We shall discover.
0:22:08 > 0:22:13Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:22:13 > 0:22:18OK, we'll put six more fashion models on the board. We have got...
0:22:18 > 0:22:20HE READS THE LIST
0:22:28 > 0:22:30And one more time...
0:22:35 > 0:22:40There we are. We're looking for the countries where they were born.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43You're trying to find the one the fewest people knew.
0:22:43 > 0:22:50- Now, Jennie, 54 is your score thanks to Ben's brilliant fashion knowledge.- He did very well.
0:22:50 > 0:22:56The high scorers are 100. That means a score of 45 or less will definitely see you through.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00I know, surprisingly, about four of the names, so that's good.
0:23:00 > 0:23:06I think I know a couple of the countries. I'm going to go for Carla Bruni.
0:23:06 > 0:23:11Well, I believe I'm right in saying... I may be wrong!
0:23:11 > 0:23:15I might be wrong. Actually, I might just change my mind.
0:23:15 > 0:23:20I will go for Cindy Crawford, America.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23Cindy Crawford, America.
0:23:23 > 0:23:31OK, there is your red line. If you get below that red line, you are through to the next round.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37It's right!
0:23:38 > 0:23:39- Oh!- 64.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42Well done, well done. Well done.
0:23:42 > 0:23:46- Takes your total up to 118. - I think!
0:23:46 > 0:23:51- Richard?- Well played, Jennie. She studied chemical engineering.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53- Did she?- Yeah, she did.
0:23:53 > 0:23:59Well done, her. Now, JK and Joel. The high scorers are now Jennie and Ben on 118.
0:23:59 > 0:24:04A score of 17 would see you deftly into the Head to Head.
0:24:04 > 0:24:10I'm torn between - and it's a great choice to be - Claudia Schiffer or Eva Herzigova.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13I'll go for Claudia Schiffer, Switzerland.
0:24:13 > 0:24:19Claudia Schiffer, Switzerland. There's your red line. Below that and you're into the Head to Head.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Aargh!
0:24:26 > 0:24:28- Bad luck.- No!
0:24:28 > 0:24:35That's an incorrect answer, which means you score 100 points. That takes your total up to 200.
0:24:35 > 0:24:41Sorry, JK. But at least you didn't get 100 points on somebody you'd meet at the Residents Association.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44- In the lift.- That is something.
0:24:44 > 0:24:50Paul, we're looking for the modern-day countries in which these models were born.
0:24:50 > 0:24:55- It's a tricky one.- The high scorers on 200 are JK and Joel,
0:24:55 > 0:25:01which means if you score 99 or less, you are through to the Head to Head.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03I'll go for Eva.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Czech Republic.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08- Czech Republic.- Yeah.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14There's your red line.
0:25:14 > 0:25:20All I think you have to be is right. Eva Herzigova, Czech Republic. Is it right? How many said it?
0:25:21 > 0:25:25You've done it! Very, very well done, Paul.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Look at that. Down it goes to eight.
0:25:29 > 0:25:35That's a cracking score, Paul. Eight for Eva Herzigova takes your total up to 108.
0:25:35 > 0:25:42- Richard?- How about that? Very good impression of a man pretending not to know much about fashion models!
0:25:42 > 0:25:48Let's take a look at the rest. Jennie, you were trying to go for Carla Bruni.
0:25:48 > 0:25:53I instantly thought she was French. I've heard her sing in French, she's the wife of Sarkozy.
0:25:53 > 0:25:58And then I suddenly thought her origin could be Italian.
0:25:58 > 0:26:02Exactly right. You made the right decision. She is Italian.
0:26:02 > 0:26:07- Very well played. Claudia Schiffer is German.- See!
0:26:07 > 0:26:12- What do you mean, "See!"? - 55 points. You would still be out.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16And Natalia Vodianova is Russian,
0:26:16 > 0:26:18which is 24.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22And the best answer on the board is Alek Wek who is from the Sudan.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25It would have scored three points.
0:26:25 > 0:26:30Very well done if you got all 12. I think only Paul knew that one.
0:26:30 > 0:26:36Thank you, Richard. So the losing celebrity pair with the highest score is JK and Joel.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40- But what a score to go out on - 200! - He thinks we've won!
0:26:41 > 0:26:45In many ways you have. You've won a reprieve from the show.
0:26:45 > 0:26:51JK and Joel, lovely. Thank you so much for being on Celebrity Pointless. Wonderful contestants.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Thank you.
0:26:54 > 0:27:00But for the remaining two celebrity pairs, things get more exciting now as we enter the Head to Head.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09Congratulations, Paul and Mary, Jennie and Ben.
0:27:09 > 0:27:14You are now only one round away from the final and your chance to play for the jackpot,
0:27:14 > 0:27:17which currently stands at £2,500.
0:27:20 > 0:27:27Obviously, only one pair can play for that money and to decide which pair you will now go Head to Head.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31For each question you are given, there will be five options.
0:27:31 > 0:27:36Each pair needs to give me one answer, but you are now allowed to confer.
0:27:36 > 0:27:43Just score less than the other pair to win that question. First to win two questions play for the jackpot.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45Let's play Head to Head.
0:27:51 > 0:27:56OK, here is your first question and it concerns...
0:27:56 > 0:27:59- famous painters.- Oh, no.
0:27:59 > 0:28:05- Famous painters, Richard. - We'll show you five photographs of famous painters.
0:28:05 > 0:28:10You just have to tell us who they are. The most obscure answer wins.
0:28:10 > 0:28:16Thank you very much. So let's reveal the five famous painters. And we have got...
0:28:30 > 0:28:32AUDIENCE LAUGHTER
0:28:32 > 0:28:36I don't know what's funny about that. So there you are.
0:28:36 > 0:28:42There are your five painters. You pick the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew
0:28:42 > 0:28:45and hope you win the question.
0:28:45 > 0:28:50- Yes, OK.- Again, stab in the dark, I'll go A, Picasso.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53A, Picasso.
0:28:53 > 0:28:57Paul and Mary are saying A, Picasso. Jennie and Ben...
0:28:57 > 0:29:03- You can go for A as well, if you like.- We can go for A as well? - We thought we knew that.
0:29:03 > 0:29:09- We thought we only knew two. - Go for A. Salvador Dali. - That's what we think.
0:29:09 > 0:29:15A, Salvador Dali. So we have Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dali both competing for A.
0:29:15 > 0:29:19In the order they were given, Paul and Mary said Pablo Picasso. Is that right?
0:29:23 > 0:29:27Oh, as I think you probably knew, that was an incorrect answer.
0:29:27 > 0:29:33Jennie and Ben, you have gone for Salvador Dali for A. All you have to be is correct.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35Are you? ..And, yes, you are!
0:29:35 > 0:29:38- Yes!- Yes, you are correct.
0:29:38 > 0:29:43- 49 people out of 100 knew that. - Well done. Excellent.
0:29:43 > 0:29:49- Well done, Jennie and Ben. After one question, you are up one-nil. Richard?- Well played.
0:29:49 > 0:29:5549 points, Salvador Dali. B is pointless. None of our 100 people knew this.
0:29:55 > 0:30:01It's a very rare photograph of Claude Monet. Scored nothing, would have added to the jackpot.
0:30:01 > 0:30:05C, Jackson Pollock, would have scored you 11 points.
0:30:05 > 0:30:10D, the famous painter Francis Bacon. That would have scored seven.
0:30:10 > 0:30:14And, unsurprisingly, the biggest score of all, 74 for Rolf Harris.
0:30:14 > 0:30:20Thank you very much. Here is your second question. Paul and Mary, you have to win this.
0:30:20 > 0:30:25Here it comes. It concerns...Doctor Who.
0:30:25 > 0:30:29- Richard? - We'll give you a list of five clues to facts about Doctor Who.
0:30:29 > 0:30:33Can you give us one of those facts? The most obscure one wins the point.
0:30:33 > 0:30:39- OK, let's reveal our five facts on Doctor Who. Here are the clues. - HE READS THE LIST
0:30:52 > 0:30:54Shall I read those one more time?
0:31:07 > 0:31:11Jennie and Ben, you go first this time.
0:31:11 > 0:31:16The only one we've got any idea and we're not sure - the decade, we'll go for the '60s.
0:31:16 > 0:31:21The 1960s. The decade in which it first appeared, say Jennie and Ben.
0:31:21 > 0:31:26- Mary, I know you're a massive Doctor Who fan...- Really?
0:31:26 > 0:31:30- He's the clever one.- I think we have to keep to our namesake.
0:31:30 > 0:31:36- Surname shared by two actors who played the Doctor - we'll say Baker.- Baker!
0:31:36 > 0:31:42Very well done and how appropriate. OK, Jennie and Ben have gone for the 1960s,
0:31:42 > 0:31:48the decade in which it first appeared. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:31:48 > 0:31:51- It's right!- Oh, well done, Ben.
0:31:51 > 0:31:56- 67.- Oh, I don't know. - Well done, Ben.- Very well done.
0:31:56 > 0:32:02- It was a guess. - 67 is what Paul and Mary have to beat with their answer of Baker,
0:32:02 > 0:32:08the surname shared by two actors. Is that right? And how many said it? Baker.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10It IS right.
0:32:10 > 0:32:13And it beats Jennie and Ben.
0:32:13 > 0:32:18That's what it needed to do. Very well done, Mary and Paul.
0:32:19 > 0:32:24Very well done. That wins you the question, so it's one-all. Richard?
0:32:24 > 0:32:30Well played, Paul and Mary. Two Bakers must be the most appropriate win we've ever had.
0:32:30 > 0:32:35- We had to go for it.- Exactly. Tom and Colin both played the Doctor.
0:32:35 > 0:32:411963 Doctor Who was first shown. And the rest. The assistant played by Billie Piper was Rose Tyler.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44That would have scored you 35.
0:32:44 > 0:32:48The foe most recently played by John Simm is The Master, 20.
0:32:48 > 0:32:53- And the Dalek planet is the best answer. It's Skaro. - Everything to play for!
0:32:53 > 0:33:00You are absolutely evenly matched. Whoever wins this third question will play for that jackpot.
0:33:00 > 0:33:05Your third question concerns... Grand National winners.
0:33:05 > 0:33:10We'll give you the names of five horses which have won the National since 1970,
0:33:10 > 0:33:18but we've missed out the last word in their names. Give us that word. The most obscure one wins the point.
0:33:18 > 0:33:24Wow. Very exciting. OK, let's reveal our Grand National winners with the second name obscured.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27- We have... - HE READS THE LIST
0:33:35 > 0:33:37I'll read those all one more time.
0:33:41 > 0:33:45So there are your five Grand National winners.
0:33:45 > 0:33:49Paul and Mary, you go first again this time.
0:33:49 > 0:33:55- We all know one, don't we? - OK, Red Rum. - You're going to go for Red Rum.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59- And so did everybody else! - Middle of the board, Red Rum.
0:33:59 > 0:34:05- Jennie and Ben, you can now do your thinking out loud if you need to. - I think we'll go for...
0:34:06 > 0:34:09- Party Time?- Mon...
0:34:09 > 0:34:14- No, Party Time. Go on. We'll go for Party Time.- So...
0:34:14 > 0:34:18We have Red Rum and we have Party Time.
0:34:18 > 0:34:23Paul and Mary, Red Rum. Is it right? How many people said Red Rum?
0:34:23 > 0:34:27- It's right! And 94 people said it. - I'm not surprised!
0:34:29 > 0:34:32That might be all you need.
0:34:32 > 0:34:37We have Party Time from Jennie and Ben. Is it right?
0:34:37 > 0:34:41- Oh, no! Bad luck. - Well done.- Bad luck.
0:34:41 > 0:34:48That's an incorrect answer, which means Paul and Mary are through to the final, 2-1.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51- Very well done indeed. - APPLAUSE
0:34:55 > 0:35:00Absolute full credit to Mary there who nicked the only answer everybody knew.
0:35:00 > 0:35:05Very good tactics. Some of these, you'll know them when you hear them.
0:35:05 > 0:35:12The next highest answer is not Party Time. Five days before the election in 1992, the bookies lost a fortune.
0:35:12 > 0:35:17It was Party Politics. It scored 22 points.
0:35:17 > 0:35:22Ben Nevis won the 1980 National. Only 4 horses finished. 12 points.
0:35:22 > 0:35:27The first horse I ever won money on, in 1987, Maori Venture. That would have scored seven.
0:35:27 > 0:35:34I've given it all back since. And the most recent winner is the lowest score. 2009, Mon Mome,
0:35:34 > 0:35:40which would have scored five points. Very well done if you got all those and if you bet on them!
0:35:40 > 0:35:47Very good. Thank you, Richard. So the losing pair is Jennie and Ben. That was a good horse snort!
0:35:47 > 0:35:51- Gutted.- He's very competitive. - You needn't be. You've done so well.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53- Yeah, it was fun.- Great fun.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57We're very relieved to have got this far.
0:35:57 > 0:36:04- Thank you so much for coming and playing.- Thank you. - Great contestants, Jennie and Ben!
0:36:07 > 0:36:12But for Paul and Mary it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:36:15 > 0:36:21Congratulations, Paul and Mary. You fought off all the competition to win our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:36:26 > 0:36:33You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot, which at the end of today's show stands at £2,500.
0:36:37 > 0:36:42The rules are very simple. To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:36:42 > 0:36:48We haven't had any today. You only have to find one to go home with that money for your charities.
0:36:48 > 0:36:53First, you've got to choose a category from five options.
0:36:53 > 0:36:55HE READS THE LIST
0:37:02 > 0:37:09- I don't believe it! - If I pick Liverpool singers and get it wrong, I'm finished,
0:37:09 > 0:37:15- so I might avoid that one. I'm thinking time zones. - Are you? I'll try to help you.
0:37:15 > 0:37:20- Time zones.- Time zones it is. OK, let's find out what your question is.
0:37:20 > 0:37:26We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many countries 10 hours or more
0:37:26 > 0:37:33- ahead or behind GMT.- We're looking for any country whose standard time is at least 10 hours ahead
0:37:33 > 0:37:40or 10 hours behind Greenwich Mean Time. By country we mean a sovereign state that's a member of the UN.
0:37:40 > 0:37:44You have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:37:44 > 0:37:51All you need to win that £2,500 for your charities is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:51 > 0:37:56We'll put 60 seconds on the clock. Your time starts now.
0:37:56 > 0:38:03- Barbados is not 10 hours ahead. - No, it's eight. - I think we go west coast of...
0:38:03 > 0:38:11No, that's the same. West coast of America or you go Indonesia, Japan. Not Australia.
0:38:11 > 0:38:17I think they're 12, 11. New Zealand. I think you have to come in a little bit.
0:38:17 > 0:38:22- Falklands?- It's 10 hours or more. - Ah!- 10 hours or more.
0:38:23 > 0:38:29Falklands... Some obscure island off New Zealand. Tasmania?
0:38:31 > 0:38:36- Tasmania. The Hayman Islands? - Not Cayman Islands?
0:38:40 > 0:38:44I would... Australia. 10 hours or more.
0:38:44 > 0:38:4610 seconds left.
0:38:47 > 0:38:54Miles away. Think New Zealand. Australia. I think Tasmania could be an interesting one.
0:38:54 > 0:38:59- You've got Fiji... - OK, your time is up.
0:38:59 > 0:39:05We were looking for countries whose standard time zone is 10 hours or more
0:39:05 > 0:39:08ahead of or behind GMT.
0:39:08 > 0:39:12- Fiji.- Fiji. - We think Fiji could be one.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14I will go Tasmania.
0:39:14 > 0:39:16- Tasmania.- And...
0:39:16 > 0:39:23- As a curve ball, Falklands? Maybe?- Not sure. - I'll go Falkland Islands.
0:39:23 > 0:39:28- Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer? - Fiji?- Fiji.
0:39:28 > 0:39:34- We'll put Fiji last. And your least likely?- Tasmania. - Let's put them up in that order.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36And here they are.
0:39:39 > 0:39:44So we are looking for countries whose standard time is 10 hours or more
0:39:44 > 0:39:49ahead of or behind GMT. Tasmania was your least confident answer.
0:39:49 > 0:39:53You only need one pointless answer to win that jackpot of £2,500.
0:39:53 > 0:39:58Tasmania. Is it right? How many people said it? Tasmania.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Oh!
0:40:01 > 0:40:04Tasmania. An incorrect answer.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08We'll discover why in a moment.
0:40:08 > 0:40:13It was just holding a place for you. You only have two more chances.
0:40:13 > 0:40:17- What are your charities? - The Pilgrims Hospice in Canterbury.
0:40:17 > 0:40:21- Mary?- The Child Bereavement Charity. - Very good indeed.
0:40:21 > 0:40:27OK, we are looking for countries 10 or more hours ahead of or behind GMT.
0:40:27 > 0:40:32- Your next answer, the Falkland Islands. Are you confident?- No.- Was!
0:40:32 > 0:40:36OK, this has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:40:36 > 0:40:41Let's see if Falkland Islands is right and how many people said it.
0:40:42 > 0:40:43Oh!
0:40:44 > 0:40:47Another incorrect answer.
0:40:47 > 0:40:51But this was all just preamble for your main answer, which is Fiji.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54You had no hesitation putting Fiji last. It's your best answer.
0:40:54 > 0:41:01We're looking for countries 10 hours or more ahead of or behind GMT. Your last answer, Fiji.
0:41:01 > 0:41:08Is it right and, if it is, how many people said it? This to win the jackpot of £2,500 for charity.
0:41:08 > 0:41:10It's right!
0:41:10 > 0:41:12Fiji is right.
0:41:13 > 0:41:18We mis-hit with Tasmania and the Falkland Islands, but Fiji is right.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20And you put it last...
0:41:20 > 0:41:21Oooh!
0:41:22 > 0:41:24- Never mind, Mary.- Never mind.
0:41:30 > 0:41:36Unfortunately, you didn't find that all-important pointless answer, so you won't take our jackpot home.
0:41:36 > 0:41:42However, as it is a celebrity special, we are going to donate £500 to each celebrity pair
0:41:42 > 0:41:48towards their respective charities, so there you are.
0:41:48 > 0:41:53Let's find out, though. Richard, what were the pointless answers?
0:41:53 > 0:41:57Just to explain the wrong ones, Tasmania is part of Australia.
0:41:57 > 0:42:03The Falkland Islands is a UK territory and only four hours behind, amazingly.
0:42:03 > 0:42:07You were right in thinking of island nations off Australia.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10All the pointless answers are island groups in the South Pacific.
0:42:10 > 0:42:15A lot of these are familiar to regular Pointless viewers.
0:42:15 > 0:42:19Federated States of Micronesia, Kiribati, the Marshall Islands,
0:42:19 > 0:42:23all of these are countries and members of the UN.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26Nauru, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu
0:42:26 > 0:42:31and Vanuatu. All of those would have won. Very well done if you said those.
0:42:31 > 0:42:33Thank you very much, Richard.
0:42:33 > 0:42:39Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you, Paul and Mary, but thank you so much for playing.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Excellent contestants.
0:42:45 > 0:42:50So all that remains is for me to say thank you to our celebrity pairs - Jenni and Matt, JK and Joel,
0:42:50 > 0:42:54Jennie and Ben and our finalists, Paul and Mary!
0:42:54 > 0:42:59Join us next time when we'll put more obscure knowledge to the test. Meanwhile, goodbye from Richard.
0:42:59 > 0:43:02- Goodbye. - And goodbye from me. Goodbye.
