0:00:32 > 0:00:34that puts obscure knowledge to the test.
0:00:34 > 0:00:39Now, every single question on Pointless has been asked to 100 people before the show.
0:00:39 > 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 that the fewest of those 100 people could think of.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Let's meet today's Pointless celebrities.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57First up, we welcome Mark Millar and Julia Kendall.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Of course, we know you both from DIY SOS.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09So all those DIY SOS-type questions you're going to have completely sewn up, aren't you?
0:01:09 > 0:01:12- Well, we hope so, but... - They won't come up, will they?
0:01:12 > 0:01:15- They won't come up. We won't have any of them, will we?- I've no idea.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18It's in the hands of the big man. Who knows?
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Julia, what would you like to see? Nominate something you'd love to see.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24- What would be your perfect Pointless category?- Music's kind of all right.
0:01:24 > 0:01:29- Good. What kind of music?- Classical. Opera maybe. Except, of course,
0:01:29 > 0:01:33- something like that might come up and I'll make a complete idiot of myself.- I'm sure you won't.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37- I'm sure you will. - I'm sure you won't.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41- Mark, anything you'd particularly not like to see come up?- Geography.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43I never know where I am.
0:01:43 > 0:01:48I just wandered round Belfast to get a pint of milk one morning and I ended up here.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Anyway, listen, it's great to have you on the show.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- Thank you very much for coming on. Very, very best of luck.- Thank you.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- Now, of course, Rachel, we know you from Countdown.- Hopefully.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09And, Mark, we know you from countless things.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11That's very kind of you to say so.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15- You're probably wondering why we are together.- It has crossed my mind.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- We were both at maths genius club... - Yes, we were.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20..and I was doing the catering.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- Mark comes on Countdown as one of his many programs.- Do you?
0:02:26 > 0:02:27To pretend I'm clever.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30But I've always got a dictionary in front of me, so it's quite easy.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34- She's very clever.- We know you are very clever. You are very clever.
0:02:34 > 0:02:35Well, if anything...
0:02:35 > 0:02:37numbers one through 100, 1,000, even, come up,
0:02:37 > 0:02:42- I'll be all right.- All the way up to 1,000.- Steady on. Up to four figures.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Very best of luck to you. It's great to have you on the show.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48And, next, please welcome Sonia and Mark Moses.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:02:53 > 0:02:58Sonia, we know you from Eurovision and being an '80s singing sensation.
0:02:58 > 0:03:03- Would you like to introduce your teammate?- This is my hubby, Mark.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05We've been together... We met at school, actually,
0:03:05 > 0:03:10when we were both 16. Yeah. We've been together 25 years now.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13That's amazing. Now, then, Mark, what are you hoping is going to come up today?
0:03:13 > 0:03:16What's going to be your dream Pointless topic?
0:03:16 > 0:03:20Maybe a bit of geography or just general knowledge.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22- No literature cos I'm terrible. - No literature.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25- Sonia, obviously music is going to be strong for you.- Yes.- What else?
0:03:25 > 0:03:29- I love my soap operas.- Good.- I love Coronation Street, in particular.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33I love all the celebrity goss and the reality shows
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- and stuff like that. - You and Richard both.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39So I'm hoping that will come up. And films. We love our films.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Very good indeed. Welcome to the show, Sonia and Mark.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43It's lovely to have you here. Very best of luck.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46And, finally, we've got Gareth Thomas and Andrew Stone.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:50 > 0:03:55Well, Gareth, obviously, we know you, Welsh rugby legend.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57And, Andrew, we know you from Pineapple Dance Studios.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00And much more importantly, the front man of Starman.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03- I'm solo now.- You've gone solo? How's it going?
0:04:03 > 0:04:04It's going well, really well.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07I'm releasing in America and here soon.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Gareth, how on earth do you know Andrew Stone?
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Where did your paths cross? - Well, I was a roadie for Starman.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- We've all done that.- Obviously.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20- We were in, briefly, the Big Brother house together.- Thanks for that.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23- Who left first?- I knew this question was going to come up. I did.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26This isn't part of the quiz.
0:04:26 > 0:04:27- I did.- Did you?- Yes.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31So, Gareth, obviously sport, rugby, in particular.
0:04:31 > 0:04:37- What else is going to be good for you?- Maybe pop music.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40What's your favourite artist? Your favourite pop artist?
0:04:40 > 0:04:45I like this One Direction at the moment. They're kind of cool.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49- They're big, big friends of the show.- We love One Direction.- Sorry, the show's big friends of theirs.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- I'm not sure they're particularly aware of us.- My favourite...
0:04:52 > 0:04:56- I'm sure they are.- No, they are. Zayn, Zayn is a big fan.- Is he?
0:04:56 > 0:04:59- Yeah, Zayn loves it.- Zayn...?- You're more of a Harry fan, aren't you?
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Harry... Yeah, Harry. And the little one with the face like a pie.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06- Niall.- Little Niall.- Tiny Niall. - With a face like a pie.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Caution - filling may be hot.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Listen, Gareth and Andrew, it's lovely to have you on the show.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16A warm welcome and very, very best of luck.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20We look forward to discovering all your hidden knowledge throughout the show.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22There's only one person left for me to introduce.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25You can barely tell he's had botox. He's my Pointless friend.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27- He's Richard.- Hiya.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:05:33 > 0:05:37- How are you?- Seldom better.- Well, this should be fun, shouldn't it?
0:05:37 > 0:05:40- Yeah. I think great fun. - I'm going to make a fairly confident prediction today.- Yep.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44I think Mark is going to win. That's my opinion.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46I have to say, I always like it on these shows
0:05:46 > 0:05:49when someone brings a daughter or a husband or something like that
0:05:49 > 0:05:52- cos it gives you more insight into a celebrity's life.- Love that.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56Also, you see a proper row cos celebrities are always lovely people...
0:05:56 > 0:05:59But as soon as it's husband and wife, it's always my favourite.
0:05:59 > 0:06:04And Round One, DIY SOS Mark is not going to like.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07- But Round Two, I think everyone's going to like. - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10All our questions on Pointless were put to 100 people before the show.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12But we're looking for the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14To be in with a chance of winning our jackpot,
0:06:14 > 0:06:17our celebrities must score as few points as possible.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21Now, what everyone's trying to do, of course, is to find a pointless answer,
0:06:21 > 0:06:25an answer none of our 100 people gave. Each time that happens, we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27As today's show is a celebrity special
0:06:27 > 0:06:30and each of our celebrities is playing for a nominated charity,
0:06:30 > 0:06:34we start off with a jackpot of £2,500.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:06:39 > 0:06:42Right. If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Now, in this first round, each of you must give me one answer
0:06:50 > 0:06:52and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Whichever pair has the highest score at the end of the round
0:06:55 > 0:06:58will be eliminated, so try and make sure it's not you.
0:06:58 > 0:07:03If you give me an incorrect answer, you will score the maximum of 100 points, so try and avoid those. OK.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05Our first category today is
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- US Geography, Mark.- No!
0:07:08 > 0:07:12US Geography. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:07:12 > 0:07:13who's going to go second?
0:07:13 > 0:07:16And whoever's going first, can you please step up to the podium?
0:07:20 > 0:07:23We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:07:23 > 0:07:28as many US states that end in a vowel as they could.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31US states that end in a vowel. Richard.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Quite simply, you're looking for any US state which ends in a vowel.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38- Mark Durden-Smith, that's A, E, I, O, U.- Don't pick on me.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42Pick on the big rugby player. They're always a bit brainless.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Oooh.- Oh, wow. OK.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49- Getting nasty, isn't it?- I would pick on Sonia rather than Gareth.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51- I really would.- He's so on it.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Sonia's one of my heroes. I can't do that.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56- I love Sonia.- Right. Now, then, Mark and Julia,
0:07:56 > 0:07:59you all drew lots before the show and today you get to go first.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02So US states that end in a vowel.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04I'm going to go for...
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Minnesota.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- I knew you were going to say that. I was thinking that one.- Good call.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14- Don't ask me to spell it. - I shan't.- Thanks.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17OK. Minnesota, says Mark. Good call, says Julia.
0:08:17 > 0:08:21Let's see if it's right and if it is, let's how many people said it. Minnesota.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23It's right.
0:08:28 > 0:08:294.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32APPLAUSE
0:08:32 > 0:08:35That's an excellent answer and an excellent score, Mark.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39- Very well done. Richard.- Great start to the show, Mark. Terrific answer.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43- Known as the Gopher State or the North Star State.- Mark.
0:08:45 > 0:08:46I will say...
0:08:48 > 0:08:50- ..Hawaii.- Hawaii. Let's see if it's right
0:08:50 > 0:08:53and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Hawaii.
0:09:00 > 0:09:0212.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:09:05 > 0:09:0712 for Hawaii.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10Yes, the Aloha State. You should get less points for it.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13- It ends in three vowels. Hawaii. - Surely.- That's pretty good.
0:09:13 > 0:09:18Good. Now, then, Mark... for a change...
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Mark, we're looking for a US state that ends in a vowel.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25As ever, of course, you're trying to find the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:09:25 > 0:09:31OK. There's a couple that I'm thinking of. Which is the least one?
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- I'll say North Dakota.- North Dakota.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37That sounds particularly good in a Liverpudlian accent, doesn't it?
0:09:37 > 0:09:41- North Dakota. Just one more time. - North Dakota.- Yeah, that's good.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45OK. Let's see if it's right and if it is, how many of our 100 people said North Dakota.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47It's right.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Look at that! 5.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56APPLAUSE
0:09:56 > 0:09:575.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03- A great score. - Very well played, Mark.
0:10:03 > 0:10:07A good start to the show. It's the Flickertail State, North Dakota.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09- I don't need to tell you that. - No, you don't.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13Rugby, North Dakota, supposed to be the very centre of North America.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16There we are. Thank you very much indeed. Now, then, Gareth.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20- Remember, we are looking for US states that end in a vowel. - Now, I think it's a state...
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Is Iowa a state?
0:10:23 > 0:10:24Let's find out.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28Iowa, is it a state and if it is, how many people said it?
0:10:30 > 0:10:32- Absolutely right, Gareth.- Yes!
0:10:36 > 0:10:387.
0:10:39 > 0:10:437 for Iowa.
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Good answer.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48He's just delighted to beat Mark, isn't he?
0:10:48 > 0:10:50That's all I wanted.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54The Hawkeye State. That's a very good first round from everybody. Very well played.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58Thank you very much. Let's have a look at the scores as we're halfway through the round.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02Mark and Julia, 4. Lovely. Looking very safe there indeed.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Up to 5 for Mark and Sonia.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07And Andrew and Gareth on 7.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10And then, whoa, up to 12. Oh!
0:11:10 > 0:11:12- So, Rachel...- Painful. - Thank God for you.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16- I've got to do the heavy lifting. - Yeah, we need that. We're going to come back down the line.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:11:21 > 0:11:26OK. We are looking for American states that end in a vowel.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30Now, then, Andrew, the high-scorers on 12 are Rachel and Mark. You're on 7.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32A score of 4 or less from you
0:11:32 > 0:11:35will definitely see you into the next round.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- You know I'm dyslexic so I'm hoping I get this right.- OK.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Um, Orlando.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44- Orlando.- What are you smiling for?
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Oh, dear.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49- It's come up before, Orlando. - Has it?
0:11:49 > 0:11:53I don't think it was right then either.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55- Unlucky, bud.- OK. Orlando.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said Orlando.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05Bad luck, Andrew. I'm sorry. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09Takes your total up to 107. It's scored you 100. I'm sorry. Richard.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12Sorry, Andrew. It's a city, not a state, Orlando.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14- It is in America, though.- Yes.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17Now, then, Sonia. I've got some great news.
0:12:17 > 0:12:18The high-scorers are on 107.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21You're on 5. You are through whatever happens.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24Even if you score 100 points, you are still in the game.
0:12:24 > 0:12:29- Nevada.- Nevada. Nevada.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- Have you played Nevada? - We got married in Nevada.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35You got married...?! Fantastic.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38- Wouldn't forget that, would you? - No, you certainly won't. OK. Nevada.
0:12:38 > 0:12:43Let's see if it's right and if it is, how many people said it. Nevada.
0:12:43 > 0:12:44Absolutely right.
0:12:50 > 0:12:548 for Nevada. Very well done. Takes your total up to 13.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00Well played, Sonia. Very good answer. Very good team work as well.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02It's interesting you got married in Nevada,
0:13:02 > 0:13:06yet it wasn't the first state that came to Mark's mind.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10- I never thought of that.- What have you been up to in North Dakota, Mark?
0:13:10 > 0:13:12I think I heard a song once.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15That's why I like having husband and wife teams on the show.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19Cos you can start stuff like that. Thanks very much, Richard.
0:13:19 > 0:13:24Now, then, Rachel. Andrew has thrown you a lifeline there, quite frankly.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27They are on 107. You are on 12 which means...
0:13:27 > 0:13:31- Listen, you know you don't have to explain the maths to Rachel, don't you?- I know!
0:13:32 > 0:13:36- You know this anyway, but 94 or less.- OK.
0:13:36 > 0:13:37Um...
0:13:37 > 0:13:39I'm going to go for Georgia.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Georgia. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Absolutely right and you are through. Well done.
0:13:51 > 0:13:526.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56Cracking score. Takes your total up to 18.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01Well played, Rachel. The Empire State of the South.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Its motto is Wisdom, Justice, and Moderation.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08LAUGHTER
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Thanks very much, Richard. Julia, more good news.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13- You are through to the next round whatever happens.- Phew.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17You will not overtake Andrew and Gareth's high score.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19That's probably a good thing.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23- OK. Let's try Louisiana.- Louisiana.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Let's see if it's right and if it is, how many people said it.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28It's right.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:14:36 > 0:14:39What about that?! 5.
0:14:39 > 0:14:44It scores you 1 and gives you a total of 5. That's your total!
0:14:44 > 0:14:47- Single figures. The best answer of the round.- Well played, Julia.
0:14:47 > 0:14:51The Pelican State. If you're playing along at home, there were five answers
0:14:51 > 0:14:55which would have scored one point. Well done if you said any of these. Let's take a look.
0:14:55 > 0:15:00Montana, Missouri, Louisiana - all of those would have scored you 1.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02As would Pennsylvania and New Hampshire.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05So very well done if you said any of those.
0:15:05 > 0:15:10Just to clear up, Orlando is a city in Florida, I'm afraid. Florida would have been a good answer.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14Florida would have got you 22 points. It would still have knocked you out,
0:15:14 > 0:15:16but it would have been a correct answer.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Thanks very much, Richard. So at the end of the first round,
0:15:19 > 0:15:23the losing pair with the highest score, I'm afraid it's Andrew and Gareth.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Oh, dear. I'm sorry. It was a tough call, that one.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31- Have you been to the States much, Andrew?- I've been to New York.
0:15:31 > 0:15:35- And LA.- Just no places that end in a vowel.- No!
0:15:35 > 0:15:38I'm so sorry. It means we have to say goodbye to you, far too soon.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41The answers they gave were amazing. I'd have probably said those
0:15:41 > 0:15:44if I'd have known more and still gone out, so well done.
0:15:44 > 0:15:49Well, it's been lovely having you on the show. We release you back into the community.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Obviously, there's only room for two celebrity pairs
0:16:02 > 0:16:05in our head-to-head round, so one of the teams in front of me now
0:16:05 > 0:16:08will be leaving us at the end of this round. OK.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Our category for Round Two is...
0:16:11 > 0:16:12Music Awards.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18Can you all decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second?
0:16:18 > 0:16:21And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26- OK.- Our Round Two question concerns...
0:16:29 > 0:16:32- Oh, no.- Winners of the Grammy for Record of the Year. Richard.
0:16:32 > 0:16:36On each pass, we're going to show you the names of six famous songs
0:16:36 > 0:16:40that won the Grammy for Record of the Year. We'll also give you the year in which they won it.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43We just need you to tell us which group or artist won the Grammy
0:16:43 > 0:16:45with that song in that year. Very best of luck.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47- 12 in all to have a go at home. - So here we are.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50We are looking for the artist that had a hit with each of these
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Grammy-winning records. And we have got on our list...
0:17:06 > 0:17:08I'll read those all one final time.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25There we are. Six Grammy award-winning records.
0:17:25 > 0:17:29You just have to say which artist released them. Julia.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31- Hmmm.- Julia.
0:17:31 > 0:17:35- Alexander.- Are you happy with that? - Er, yeah...
0:17:35 > 0:17:38- Are you?- There's a couple.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40- I do know a couple.- This is good.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44I'm going to go with The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46I think it was Roberta Flack.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49Roberta Flack for The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.
0:17:49 > 0:17:54Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people knew that answer. Roberta Flack.
0:17:54 > 0:17:55Absolutely right.
0:18:00 > 0:18:05It's a great answer, Julia. Well done. Single figures. 9.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Lovely low score. Roberta Flack.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12Good answer, Julia. Great answer in the first round, another great answer there.
0:18:12 > 0:18:17- Written by Ewan MacColl. - Now, then, Rachel.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21Well, I think I know three of the other ones.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24I'm going with Use Somebody and Kings of Leon.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Kings of Leon, Use Somebody, says Rachel. Kings of Leon.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31Let's see if it's right and if it is, let's see how many people knew that answer. Kings of Leon.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Absolutely right, Rachel. Brilliant answer.
0:18:39 > 0:18:4015.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47- 15. Good answer. Good score. Kings of Leon.- Well played, Rachel.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Another good answer. A number two hit in the UK. Kings of Leon.
0:18:50 > 0:18:54- The Followill family. - There we go. Mark.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57Mark. You're the last person to have this board.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00You can talk us through it if you like and fill in all the blanks.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04I think I know all of the others. I think U2 is the top.
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Hotel California is the Eagles.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08And Simon and Garfunkel, Mrs Robinson.
0:19:09 > 0:19:13- I think I'll go for... - You've missed one out.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16- I've realised I don't know that one. - Oh, right.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18I think I'll go for...
0:19:19 > 0:19:23..U2. Beautiful day.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25OK. Beautiful Day, U2, you are saying.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29OK. Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said U2.
0:19:31 > 0:19:32Absolutely right.
0:19:37 > 0:19:38Wow. 32.
0:19:42 > 0:19:47Extraordinary. 32. Very high score for that. Great song, obviously.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Well played, Mark. You filled in the board very nicely as well
0:19:50 > 0:19:52and you picked the right one of the ones you knew.
0:19:52 > 0:19:56Because Hotel California, absolutely right, was by the Eagles, but that would have scored you 49.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00Mrs Robinson is Simon and Garfunkel, that would have scored you 41.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Now, the best answer on the board, is Need You Now,
0:20:02 > 0:20:05a band who are much bigger in the States than they are over here -
0:20:05 > 0:20:10a country act, Lady Antebellum. Would have scored four points.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Very well done if you said that. To give you an idea of how many Grammys they give out...
0:20:13 > 0:20:17They also won the Grammy for the best country performance by a duo
0:20:17 > 0:20:21- or group with vocals. That's specific, isn't it?- Isn't it?!
0:20:21 > 0:20:27- We should enter that.- I think we won it in 2004.- So we did! There we go.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31- Just beat Sonia and Mark, didn't we? - Yeah, we did. Heady days.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35OK. We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores as they stand. Julia and Mark,
0:20:35 > 0:20:39looking amazingly strong. Another very strong turn from them.
0:20:39 > 0:20:40Nice low score of 9.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43Then we come up to 15, where we find Rachel and Mark
0:20:43 > 0:20:46looking pretty strong. Then Sonia and Mark on 32.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Sonia, luckily,
0:20:48 > 0:20:52you couldn't be more at home in this category if you tried.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55And you get first pick of the next board. So you're going to have to find a really low score
0:20:55 > 0:20:58and hope that's enough to keep you in the game. Very best of luck.
0:20:58 > 0:21:04We're going to come back down the line. Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:21:04 > 0:21:08OK. We're going to put six more songs on the board and here they come.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Good luck. We have got...
0:21:24 > 0:21:27I was wondering if I could just say them altogether
0:21:27 > 0:21:29and turn it into one big, long lyric.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Don't know why, what's love got to do with it?
0:21:31 > 0:21:35Strangers in the night, rolling in the deep, I honestly love you just the way you are.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38APPLAUSE
0:21:38 > 0:21:41And the good news is, you've just won a Grammy.
0:21:43 > 0:21:44Wow.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Now, Sonia.
0:21:47 > 0:21:52- Um, Tina Turner, What's Love Got To Do With It?- OK. You are on 32.
0:21:52 > 0:21:53You are the high-scorers.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56You're saying Tina Turner, What's Love Got To Do With It?
0:21:56 > 0:22:00Let's see. Tina Turner, is it right? How many people said it?
0:22:00 > 0:22:01Absolutely right.
0:22:04 > 0:22:0640.
0:22:07 > 0:22:1140. Takes your total up to 72. Richard.
0:22:11 > 0:22:12Pretty big score for that song.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16It's also the title of the film of her life as well. Tina Turner.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Now, then, Mark.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20- HE SIGHS - Oh, no!
0:22:22 > 0:22:25It's just such a shame.
0:22:25 > 0:22:29She's so clever. Can't you get someone else in to do this question?
0:22:29 > 0:22:33I'm only confident of one.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36So I'm going to say...
0:22:36 > 0:22:40Adele, Rolling in the Deep, because it's the only one I know.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44Rolling in the Deep, Adele, says Mark.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45OK. Here's your red line.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48That's what you want to be getting below.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51The high-scorers on 72, Sonia and Mark.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55You want to be getting 56 or less. Adele. Rolling in the Deep.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Is it right? How many people said it?
0:22:58 > 0:23:01Absolutely right.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04You've done it! 41.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Very well done indeed. Good work.
0:23:08 > 0:23:1241 takes your total up to 56 and sees you into the head-to-head.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14- Good work, Mark. - Yes, the Record Of The Year, 2012.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Again, a number two hit just like Use Somebody.
0:23:17 > 0:23:21She broke every single sales record going, Adele. Both sides of the Atlantic. Amazing.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24Amazing. Now, then, Mark. You're on 9.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26The high scorers on 72 are Mark and Sonia.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30That means a score of 62 or less keeps you in the game.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Remember, we are looking for the groups or artists who had
0:23:33 > 0:23:36hit records with these Grammy-winning singles.
0:23:36 > 0:23:41- I actually don't know any of them. I'm going to have to guess. - Oh, no. Don't!
0:23:41 > 0:23:43- I'm in a state of shock.- No!
0:23:46 > 0:23:50- I don't recognise any of them. - Oh, no. Come on.- Honestly, I don't.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52I Honestly Love You...
0:23:52 > 0:23:55but that was 1974 and things have changed since then.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59LAUGHTER
0:23:59 > 0:24:02Just The Way You Are...
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Is it Elvis Costello?
0:24:05 > 0:24:09Just The Way You Are, Elvis Costello, says Mark.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Is it right? How many people said it?
0:24:15 > 0:24:19Bad luck, Mark. Bad luck. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22- It scores you 100 points.- I'm sorry. - I knew I shouldn't have brought you!
0:24:22 > 0:24:26- She's turned already. - Sorry, Mark. Not Elvis Costello.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28It was Billy Joel. Just The Way You Are.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30# Just the way you are. #
0:24:30 > 0:24:31- Remember?- No, I don't remember.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35- Julia, what would you have gone for for Strangers in the Night? - That would have been...
0:24:35 > 0:24:38It's one of the old crooners. Isn't that Frank Sinatra?
0:24:38 > 0:24:39It is Frank Sinatra. Absolutely right.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43That would have scored 24 points. Would have seen you safely through.
0:24:43 > 0:24:47- Don't Know Why from 2002. Xander, do you know that one?- No.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50- It was Norah Jones.- Norah Jones. Of course!
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Would have scored you four points.
0:24:52 > 0:24:57- And I Honestly Love You. This is the best answer on the board.- No.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01- Olivia Newton-John is the answer. Three points.- There we are.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05Thanks very much, Richard. So at the end of Round Two, the losing celebrity pair...
0:25:05 > 0:25:09- Mark, you're not going to be forgiven.- I know I'm not.- No.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12I know I'm not. I just hope Mark wins.
0:25:13 > 0:25:18- Frank Sinatra, you can hear it now, can't you?- Of course I can.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20I think Julia thinks it would be better if it was DIY.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23And Mark is thinking SOS.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25LAUGHTER
0:25:25 > 0:25:28- Mark and Julia, it's been brilliant having you on the show.- Thank you.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Thanks so much for coming. Lovely contestants.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35But for the remaining two celebrity pairs, things are about to get
0:25:35 > 0:25:37even more exciting now as we enter the head-to-head.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46Congratulations, Rachel and Mark, Sonia and Mark.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48You are now only one round away from the final
0:25:48 > 0:25:53and a chance to play for the jackpot which currently stands at £2,500.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01You are now going to go head-to-head and the first pair to win two questions
0:26:01 > 0:26:03will be playing for that jackpot.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07The great news is, from here on in, you're allowed to confer.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10You are now a team. Or two teams.
0:26:10 > 0:26:15Sonia and Mark, you had a bit of a lifeline thrown there, didn't you?
0:26:15 > 0:26:17We did. I thought that was it for us.
0:26:17 > 0:26:23And Mark Durden-Smith, you need to pull your socks up.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Rachel has been carrying me through the first two rounds.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29I knew nothing about geography or music, so I'm glad they're out of the way.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32Geography and music, both came up and you excelled.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35- A nice question about maths now would be appreciated.- Yes, please.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Perfect. Very good. Well, the very best of luck to both pairs.
0:26:38 > 0:26:39Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49Here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:26:49 > 0:26:51Superhero Nemeses.
0:26:51 > 0:26:52Ooh.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54- Superhero Nemeses. Richard.- Yes.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57We're going to show you five images of villains from superhero films.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01Can you identify them and pick the most obscure, please?
0:27:01 > 0:27:05We're looking for their villain name, not their human name.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09- Good.- Villain name.- Villain name. OK. Let's reveal our five villains.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11And here they come. We have got...
0:27:24 > 0:27:27There we are. Now, Rachel and Mark, you've played best
0:27:27 > 0:27:29throughout the show so far, so you get to go first.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33- OK.- OK.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35Shall we go for it? OK.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38We're going to go with Magneto. Number E. Or letter E, rather!
0:27:38 > 0:27:40She's obsessed by numbers.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44- Letter- E. Letter E, Magneto.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48Magneto, letter E, say Rachel and Mark. Sonia and Mark.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50We know two.
0:27:50 > 0:27:54The first one we've got an idea, but I think I'm going to pronounce it wrong.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57- Say who you think they might be. - A is out of Superman.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00- Do you know his name?- I think it...
0:28:00 > 0:28:03- No, we're not saying that.- B.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06- B, we're going to go for B. - You say it.- Ming the Merciless.
0:28:06 > 0:28:10Ming the Merciless also sounds great in a Liverpudlian accent.
0:28:10 > 0:28:14So we have Magneto and we have Ming the Merciless.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Rachel and Mark said Magneto. Let's see if that's right
0:28:16 > 0:28:19and if it is, let's see how many people said Magneto.
0:28:21 > 0:28:22Absolutely right.
0:28:27 > 0:28:2811.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33Very, very well done. Great answer.
0:28:33 > 0:28:38Now Ming the Merciless. What do you think? 11? Lower than?
0:28:38 > 0:28:41- Higher, we reckon. - We think it's higher than that. It's from Flash Gordon.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44OK. Ming the Merciless. 11 is what you have to beat. Is it right?
0:28:44 > 0:28:46How many people said it?
0:28:46 > 0:28:48It's right.
0:28:51 > 0:28:5336.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56- I've never heard of him. - Rachel and Mark...
0:28:56 > 0:28:59- I didn't recognise him at all. - ..you are the heroes,
0:28:59 > 0:29:01Sonia and Mark, the villains of this particular piece.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04After one question, Rachel and Mark, you're up 1-0. Richard.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07Magneto, the enemy of the X-Men, played by Sir Ian McKellen.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10A very good answer. A couple of answers that would have beaten it.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13You're quite right, Mark. A is from Superman.
0:29:13 > 0:29:15It's General Zod.
0:29:15 > 0:29:19General Zod would have scored six points and would have given you the point.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21Played by Terence Stamp. There's Ming.
0:29:21 > 0:29:24C is Catwoman. Probably best avoided.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27Scored 88 points.
0:29:27 > 0:29:31The clue is in the ears. And D, do you know that one?
0:29:31 > 0:29:35It's Mickey Rourke. But that's not the villain name.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38It's Whiplash from Iron Man 2. Very scary.
0:29:38 > 0:29:43- Would have scored you two points. - Wow. Thank you very much, Richard.
0:29:43 > 0:29:47OK. Here comes your second question. Sonia and Mark, you have to win this to stay in the game.
0:29:47 > 0:29:50Very best of luck. Here it comes. It concerns...
0:29:50 > 0:29:52World War II.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55World War II. Richard.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58I'm simply going to show you five clues to facts about World War II.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02- Can you give us the most obscure answer here, please?- OK.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05Let's reveal our five clues to facts about World War II.
0:30:05 > 0:30:06And we have got...
0:30:06 > 0:30:09The port, the location of the 1940 evacuation
0:30:09 > 0:30:11of Allied troops from Northern France.
0:30:11 > 0:30:14The Buckinghamshire country estate
0:30:14 > 0:30:16that served as HQ of Allied code breakers.
0:30:16 > 0:30:21The French city where the full Nazi surrender was signed on the 7th of May in 1945.
0:30:21 > 0:30:25The demilitarised zone that Hitler's troops entered in 1936.
0:30:25 > 0:30:28And the name of the German air force.
0:30:28 > 0:30:29I'll read those all one last time.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32The port that was the location of the 1940 evacuation
0:30:32 > 0:30:34of Allied troops from Northern France.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36The Buckinghamshire country estate
0:30:36 > 0:30:38that served as HQ of Allied code breakers.
0:30:38 > 0:30:43The French city where the full Nazi surrender was signed on the 7th of May in 1945.
0:30:43 > 0:30:47The demilitarised zone that Hitler's troops entered in 1936.
0:30:47 > 0:30:51And the name of the German air force.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54There we are. Five clues to facts about the Second World War.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57Sonia and Mark, you go first.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00THEY WHISPER
0:31:02 > 0:31:05OK. The second one down, Bletchley House.
0:31:05 > 0:31:07You're going to say Bletchley House.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10Bletchley House for the Buckinghamshire country estate.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13Rachel and Mark. You can talk us through the board.
0:31:13 > 0:31:17- Well, we're allowed to go for the same one if we think it's wrong, aren't we?- Oh, yes.
0:31:17 > 0:31:21- I think it's Bletchley Park. - I love her.
0:31:21 > 0:31:25Versailles... Is it the Rhineland? The Luftwaffe.
0:31:25 > 0:31:26It's Dunkirk, isn't it?
0:31:26 > 0:31:30Bletchley Park. Full Nazi surrender was signed in Versailles.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33- Treaty of Versailles.- You think it's Rhineland and then the Luftwaffe?
0:31:33 > 0:31:35I think it's the Rhineland and the Luftwaffe.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37I think it's Bletchley Park not Bletchley House.
0:31:37 > 0:31:41I think I agree with you, so we're both in agreement.
0:31:41 > 0:31:42OK. You're going to submit Bletchley Park.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45- We have Bletchley House versus Bletchley Park.- Yep.
0:31:45 > 0:31:49OK. Sonia and Mark have said Bletchley House. Is it right?
0:31:49 > 0:31:50How many people said it?
0:31:54 > 0:31:58No! Bad luck. Not Bletchley House.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01It is, we think, Bletchley Park.
0:32:01 > 0:32:06Let's put it to the test. Bletchley Park. All it has to be is right.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09And it is right. You are through to the final.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11Let's see how far it goes down.
0:32:11 > 0:32:1429. Well done.
0:32:14 > 0:32:17APPLAUSE
0:32:17 > 0:32:21Very, very, very well done indeed, Rachel and Mark.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24After only two questions, you are through to the final
0:32:24 > 0:32:29- in straight sets. 2-0. Well done. Richard.- That's a very tough way to go out, Mark and Sonia.
0:32:29 > 0:32:30Sorry about that. Just one word wrong.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34Yes, Bletchley Park, it currently houses the National Codes Centre
0:32:34 > 0:32:37and the National Museum of Computing. Quite the place for dates.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39I'd enjoy it.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44Let's go through the other answers.
0:32:44 > 0:32:45The port is Dunkirk.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Would have scored you 40 points.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53The name of the German air force was a big scorer - 55 for Luftwaffe.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56The demilitarised zone that Hitler's troops entered...
0:32:56 > 0:33:00- Hitler was his villain name, wasn't it?- Oh, yes.- Very much so.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03I think, Rachel, you said, the Rhineland. Very good answer.
0:33:03 > 0:33:07Would have scored three points. The other answer is a pointless answer.
0:33:07 > 0:33:11The French city in which the full Nazi surrender was signed. Any clues?
0:33:11 > 0:33:14- I thought it was Versailles. - Was it Versailles?- It's Reims.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16- Versailles was the First World War. - Of course!
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Very well done if you said that at home. A pointless answer.
0:33:19 > 0:33:23So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, I'm afraid, Sonia and Mark.
0:33:23 > 0:33:27- Never mind.- You've done so well, though. Brilliant.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30- Exemplary play all the way through the show.- We've really enjoyed it.
0:33:30 > 0:33:33- We really have. - What was your favourite round?
0:33:33 > 0:33:38- The first one because it was where we got married.- Lovely.
0:33:38 > 0:33:41Nevada, not North Dakota.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44Listen, Sonia and Mark, it's been lovely having you on the show.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47- Thank you so much for playing. Brilliant.- Thank you.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50APPLAUSE
0:33:51 > 0:33:54But for Rachel and Mark, it's now time for our pointless final.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00Well, congratulations, Rachel and Mark.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02You have seen off all the competition
0:34:02 > 0:34:05and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13- Wow.- You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:34:13 > 0:34:17At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £2,500.
0:34:20 > 0:34:24Very, very strong performance.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26Very strong performance from you there, Rachel.
0:34:26 > 0:34:31I knew you were going to say that! She needs the rock beside her.
0:34:31 > 0:34:36- That was a maths question, really, in disguise, Bletchley Park? - Bletchley Park, kind of, yeah.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40The question is, how are you going to pick the category that Rachel's going to answer?
0:34:40 > 0:34:44We all know Rachel will pick the category Rachel's going to answer
0:34:44 > 0:34:46- and I'll just go along with whatever she says.- OK.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49Well, very best of luck. You've done fantastically well to get thus far.
0:34:49 > 0:34:53But the rules are very simple. To win the money for your nominated charities,
0:34:53 > 0:34:57all you have to do is find a pointless answer. We haven't had any on the show today.
0:34:57 > 0:35:00You only have to find one now and you'll go away with that money for your charities.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02First, you've got to choose a category and you have
0:35:02 > 0:35:05a choice of five options. Good luck. They are...
0:35:07 > 0:35:10- Katie Price.- Oh, no!- Formula One... - Just all of them, not just her.
0:35:14 > 0:35:16Interesting. We both know a lot...
0:35:16 > 0:35:18You once compared me to Katie Price
0:35:18 > 0:35:21- and you've worked with her, haven't you?- I have.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24- But I haven't read her... - Neither have I.- ..books yet.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27Which I'm getting round to, but I haven't quite done it yet.
0:35:27 > 0:35:31- Formula One...- Formula One, I know nothing. Artists... Uh-oh.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33Rock Stars...
0:35:33 > 0:35:36- I think Transport seems to be the one that's the most obscure. - Why not?
0:35:36 > 0:35:40- And you are quite random so... - Thank you. Let's go for it.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42- We're going Transport. - You're going Transport?- Yeah.
0:35:42 > 0:35:46Very well done indeed. Let's find out what the question is.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:35:48 > 0:35:52as many national rail stations on the London tube map
0:35:52 > 0:35:55as they could. Richard.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58Yes, we're looking for any station on the TFL London tube map
0:35:58 > 0:36:00which also provides a national rail service.
0:36:00 > 0:36:03Those are the ones on the tube map with the little rail symbol.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06It can be on any tube line, London overground or DLR,
0:36:06 > 0:36:10so long as it's on the tube map at the beginning of 2012.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12Thank you very much. OK. There we are.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15You have up to one minute to come up with three answers and all you need
0:36:15 > 0:36:20to win that £2,500 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:20 > 0:36:24- Are you ready?- No.- Not yet. - Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:36:24 > 0:36:26There they are. Your time starts now.
0:36:26 > 0:36:30- I know the Essex ones, like Barking...- Barking's got national rail?- Barking, West Ham...
0:36:30 > 0:36:34- I would go St Pancras, King's Cross, Paddington. That's obviously no use to us.- Barking, West Ham...
0:36:34 > 0:36:38- West Ham's national rail?- Liverpool Street. That's an obvious one.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40- Yeah, West Ham's one. - I love that. OK.
0:36:40 > 0:36:44Clapham Junction's one, of course. I'm just trying to pretend I know stuff.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46Woodford Green, is that one?
0:36:46 > 0:36:49- That's your neck of the woods, isn't it?- Yeah, I only know the Essex ones.
0:36:49 > 0:36:53- Croydon. East Croydon. East Croydon is a national rail line. - Are you sure?
0:36:53 > 0:36:56Yes. But I like your Barking. I like your West Ham.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00Trouble is, the cross-section of society...
0:37:00 > 0:37:04- We're in trouble here, aren't we?- Yes.- Um...
0:37:04 > 0:37:07I'm just going to say um and ah for a bit longer.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09How many more seconds have I got to um and ah? 19 seconds.
0:37:09 > 0:37:13Why are you backing away from me? You think, "You useless..."
0:37:13 > 0:37:16- No, I'm trying to think. Time. Focus.- OK. OK, focus.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18- Ten seconds.- Jubilee line.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Go down the Jubilee line, anything on there?
0:37:20 > 0:37:24Swiss Cottage, is that a national rail line? No, I don't think it is.
0:37:24 > 0:37:29- High Barnet. No. I think what we've got to go for...- OK.
0:37:29 > 0:37:33Your time is up. We're looking for national rail stations on the London tube map.
0:37:33 > 0:37:37- I now need your three answers. - Is Woodford Green one?
0:37:37 > 0:37:39Let's do that anyway. So Woodford Green...
0:37:39 > 0:37:43- Let's go all those Essex ones. - Or Harold Hill?- OK. I need your three answers now.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45- Harold Hill?- Harold Hill. - Three answers.
0:37:45 > 0:37:49- It's obscure. It might not be right. Let's go Harold Hill. - OK. Harold Hill.
0:37:49 > 0:37:51So I think you've got to go for your Holford doo-da,
0:37:51 > 0:37:54whatever that was, and then go for the ones...
0:37:54 > 0:37:58- You've had your 60 seconds. - Barking and Woodford Green.
0:37:58 > 0:38:02- Woodford Green, Barking and Howard Hill.- Harold Hill.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05- Harold Hill.- As in King Harold. - There are the three answers.
0:38:05 > 0:38:09- Which of those three do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?- If Harold Hill...
0:38:09 > 0:38:13- I've never heard of Harold Hill. - Nor have I.- If it's a mainline station, national rail,
0:38:13 > 0:38:17- we're delighted with Harold Hill. - Shall we put that last?- Sure.- OK.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20- That goes last. Which shall we put first?- Barking. Everyone's heard of Barking.- OK.
0:38:20 > 0:38:24Let's put those up on the board in that order. And here they are.
0:38:28 > 0:38:31Barking, Woodford Green, Harold Hill. There we are.
0:38:31 > 0:38:35We were looking for national rail stations on the London tube map.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38Barking you said was your least confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41You only have to find one pointless answer, remember,
0:38:41 > 0:38:43to win that £2,500 jackpot.
0:38:43 > 0:38:48So let's see how many people said Barking.
0:38:48 > 0:38:49Is it right?
0:38:51 > 0:38:52It is right.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55OK. Down it goes. If this goes all the way down to zero,
0:38:55 > 0:38:58you leave here with £2,500 for your charities.
0:38:58 > 0:38:59It's still going down.
0:38:59 > 0:39:00Into the teens.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02Into single figures. Down it goes.
0:39:02 > 0:39:03Three, two, one. Oh!
0:39:03 > 0:39:05GROANING
0:39:05 > 0:39:06One point away.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13SHE GROANS
0:39:13 > 0:39:16One person got Barking. Barking's quite well known.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18It's at the end of the line, the end of the tube line.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21- It's written on the front of tubes. - So West Ham might have... - Upminster!
0:39:21 > 0:39:23Upminster's now a good shout.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26It's unfortunate. There we are. Not a pointless answer.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29- But I think quite... Are we reassured by that?- No.- No.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34- Aren't we?- I'm not sure the others are even...right.
0:39:34 > 0:39:39The other two are wild guesses I think. Wild-ish from...Raquel.
0:39:39 > 0:39:43- You only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.- Oh, dear. - Rachel, what's your charity?
0:39:43 > 0:39:46It's the Angus Lawson Memorial Trust that helps children's charities
0:39:46 > 0:39:49- across the globe and at home. - Very good indeed.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51APPLAUSE
0:39:54 > 0:39:58- And, Mark, what's your charity? - Mine is the Charlie Waller Memorial Trust which is
0:39:58 > 0:40:02raising awareness about depression and fighting its symptoms
0:40:02 > 0:40:05- and trying to basically help people who are suffering.- Very good.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07APPLAUSE
0:40:11 > 0:40:14Well, let's hope, for the sake of those two charities,
0:40:14 > 0:40:17that one of your two remaining answers will be pointless. OK.
0:40:17 > 0:40:20We're looking for national rail stations on the London tube map.
0:40:20 > 0:40:25Let's hope nobody said your next answer which is Woodford Green. It has to be correct and pointless.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28If it's both of those things, you leave here with £2,500.
0:40:28 > 0:40:31Is it right? How many people said Woodford Green?
0:40:33 > 0:40:37No. We weren't sure. Oh, dear.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40You only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:40:40 > 0:40:44- Is it even a tube stop? - I've never heard of Harold Hill.
0:40:44 > 0:40:49- Not as a person, not as a tube map. - I'm living in the past.- Harold Hill.
0:40:49 > 0:40:52We are looking for national rail stations on the London tube map.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55Your third and final answer was Harold Hill.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58This was your most confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:40:58 > 0:41:02This is your third shot at that jackpot of £2,500. It has to be right.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04It has to be pointless. Is it right? Harold Hill.
0:41:07 > 0:41:09Oh, no!
0:41:09 > 0:41:12- That was obvious. No-one had heard of it!- You did brilliantly.
0:41:14 > 0:41:18Bad luck. Well, there we are. Unfortunately, you didn't manage
0:41:18 > 0:41:20to find that all-important pointless answer,
0:41:20 > 0:41:23so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £2,500.
0:41:23 > 0:41:26However, as it's a celebrity special, we are going to donate
0:41:26 > 0:41:30£500 to each celebrity pair for their respective charities.
0:41:30 > 0:41:32- Thank you.- Thank you very much.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35That's great. Thank you.
0:41:35 > 0:41:39- This is the really hard bit. Richard.- It's not going to be Upminster and West Ham?
0:41:39 > 0:41:40Please don't say that.
0:41:40 > 0:41:44You've been so good. You went for Barking. Should have gone for West Ham.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47- It was a pointless answer.- Oh, no! - Would have won the money. - I thought that was obvious.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50- Upminster also a pointless answer. - Oh, no!
0:41:50 > 0:41:52Let's take a look at some of the other pointless answers.
0:41:52 > 0:41:54Well done if you got any of these at home.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56Brixton would have won you the money.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04The nearest overground rail station to here - Shepherd's Bush.
0:42:04 > 0:42:08That would have won you the money. Stratford International.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11There's Upminster. Watford Junction as well. A few others.
0:42:11 > 0:42:15Amersham would have won you the money. New Cross Gate. Old Street, South Ruislip,
0:42:15 > 0:42:17West Hampstead, West Ruislip. All of those pointless.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20Well done if you got any of those. Unlucky. You've been brilliant.
0:42:20 > 0:42:23- That's a really, really tough way to lose.- How disappointing.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26Unfortunately, we do have to say goodbye to you. It's been brilliant having you on the show.
0:42:26 > 0:42:30Thank you both so much for playing. Excellent contestants.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32APPLAUSE
0:42:32 > 0:42:36All that remains is for me to say thank you to all our celebrity pairs,
0:42:36 > 0:42:39Gareth and Andrew, Mark and Julia, Sonia and Mark and, of course,
0:42:39 > 0:42:42our excellent finalists, Rachel and Mark.
0:42:42 > 0:42:46Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49- It's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
