0:01:07 > 0:01:08I'm Jonathan Ansell,

0:01:10 > 0:01:12And I'm Faryl Smith

0:01:25 > 0:01:26APPLAUSE
0:01:28 > 0:01:30Thanks very much to all of you.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31Very, very warm welcome to Pointless.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32Great to have you all here.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35We'll get to chat to each of you in the show as it goes along,
0:01:35 > 0:01:37so that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:37 > 0:01:42He's part punk, part hip-hop and he has a scar on his left buttock.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44It is my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- APPLAUSE AND LAUGHTER - Hiya. Hey, everybody.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Good evening.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52- Good evening to you. - And to you.- How are you?
0:01:52 > 0:01:55- I'm very well, thank you. - I am absolutely a combination of punk and hip-hop, I really am.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57- Yeah.- Genuinely, I think that sums me up.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Now, we're sort of collecting members of groups.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03We've only had, we've had one in four of G4.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05We've now had two of Liberty X.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08We've had three of So Solid Crew, but there's about 800 of them.
0:02:08 > 0:02:09HARVEY LAUGHS
0:02:09 > 0:02:11And we are now on four out of five out of Steps, as well.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14We've almost completed our Steps bingo.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17And we are 100% now of Foster and Allen.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20We've collected the whole lot, which we're delighted about.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23It's going to be loads of fun, loads of lovely people on tonight's show,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25going to be very competitive. The questions,
0:02:25 > 0:02:28I don't think people are going to have... I think they're OK.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- Nothing too terrifying. - They're OK, everyone. It's fine!
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- That's the good news.- They're OK. - Sometimes stuff comes up
0:02:33 > 0:02:35and you think, you look at the celebrities,
0:02:35 > 0:02:38look at the questions and think, "This is going to be a long evening."
0:02:38 > 0:02:41But I think the combination of you lot and the questions,
0:02:41 > 0:02:42I think we're going to be safe.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- Wishful thinking. - I think we're going to be safe.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Phew. Thank you very much.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49All of today's questions have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53Our contestants are looking for those all-important pointless answers,
0:02:53 > 0:02:56these being answers that none of our 100 people gave.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Find one of those and we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Now, as today's show is a celebrity special
0:03:00 > 0:03:03and each of our celebrities is playing for a nominated charity,
0:03:03 > 0:03:07we are going to start off with a jackpot of £2,500.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09There we are. WHOOPING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16APPLAUSE
0:03:19 > 0:03:20So, here's the rule,
0:03:20 > 0:03:23the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:03:23 > 0:03:24will be eliminated.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26That is it. That's all you have to remember.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29No conferring, of course, till we get to the head-to-head round.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Other than that, very, very best of luck.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Our first category this evening...
0:03:33 > 0:03:35is...
0:03:36 > 0:03:38- What about that?- Yay!- Celebrities.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:03:40 > 0:03:42who's going to go second? THEY CONFER
0:03:42 > 0:03:45And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51OK. And the question concerns...
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Famous Brits Born Abroad.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57- Famous...- You fooled us!
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Thinking it was about magazines!
0:03:59 > 0:04:02It may be, it may yet be. Richard.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04We're going to show you seven clues to famous British people,
0:04:04 > 0:04:06all of whom were born abroad.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08We're also going to show you the country they were born in.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Give us the most obscure answer you can, please.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Seven on the first board, seven on the second.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14- 14 in all to have a go at at home. Very best of luck.- OK.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17So, who are these famous people who were born abroad?
0:04:17 > 0:04:19And here is our first board of seven.
0:04:19 > 0:04:20We have got...
0:04:52 > 0:04:55I'm going to read those all again. We have...
0:05:23 > 0:05:24There we go.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Pauline, welcome.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Ah, it's a great treat having you here,
0:05:28 > 0:05:30from the Selecter, which is still going.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32It is still going, yes.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- When did it form?- We formed in 1979.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39- In Coventry?- In Coventry, yes. It was in Coventry, indeed.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Great, so you and The Specials, who was around first?
0:05:42 > 0:05:43The Specials were around first.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46- But not for long?- Not for long, then we were soon after, yes.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48- It was a huge scene. - There was a huge scene, yeah.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Two-tone, that was what I come from, anyway.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Sort of serious kind of black-and-white clothing,
0:05:54 > 0:05:58black people, white people on the stage together, all of those things.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00- That was what we were all about. - Fantastic.
0:06:00 > 0:06:01And you now manage the band.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03- I do, yes.- So, how is that?
0:06:03 > 0:06:06It can have its tricky moments, but, you know...
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- How many of you are there now? - There are eight of us in the band.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11- How was it at its biggest? How big was it?- Seven.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14- So, we've got an extra, yeah. We added a horn section.- OK.
0:06:14 > 0:06:15There we are. That's nice.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Pauline, what would you like to go for from this board?
0:06:19 > 0:06:23Erm, singer who represented the UK at the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest,
0:06:23 > 0:06:26aged 76, born in India.
0:06:26 > 0:06:27Engelbert Humperdinck.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Engelbert Humperdinck, says Pauline. Let's see if that's right,
0:06:30 > 0:06:33let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37It is Engelbert Humperdinck.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Look at that, 21. Very well done indeed, Pauline.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- APPLAUSE Great start to the show.- Yes.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Well played, Pauline. Tough on that first podium.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50You started us off very nicely.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Born in Madras and lived there till he was 11.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- Michelle.- Hi. - Welcome back to Pointless.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Good to have you here. Now, Michelle, what about Liberty X?
0:06:59 > 0:07:02You've never really disbanded, have you?
0:07:02 > 0:07:03No, you're quite right.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06We haven't quite disbanded completely.
0:07:06 > 0:07:07We kind of keep coming back for the odd gig.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10And Kevin suddenly doing so well in The Voice.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12He is, very well. We'll let him do his thing.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14- OK.- He deserves his own time now to shine.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17A bit of his own time, but you've also done some fitness things, haven't you?
0:07:17 > 0:07:19- Yes.- You've had a fitness DVD out.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21I have, yeah. I've got a YouTube channel,
0:07:21 > 0:07:22so I do a lot of fitness stuff,
0:07:22 > 0:07:26blogging on there and I'm back on stage soon, acting.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28I'm really excited to get back to work,
0:07:28 > 0:07:30cos I think the last four years,
0:07:30 > 0:07:32- I've predominantly been a full-time mum...- Yeah.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35..and I feel like it's time to get myself back.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37- Back on stage.- Yes, absolutely.
0:07:37 > 0:07:38There you go. OK, Michelle...
0:07:38 > 0:07:40- Yes.- ..what would you like to go for from this board?
0:07:40 > 0:07:43I would like to go for none of them and I'd like some new questions,
0:07:43 > 0:07:47but if that's not going to happen, I'm going to go for the actress
0:07:47 > 0:07:49who played Patsy in Absolutely Fabulous,
0:07:49 > 0:07:52cos it's the only one I really 100% know,
0:07:52 > 0:07:54- and I bet you I get it wrong!- Go on.
0:07:54 > 0:07:55- Joanna Lumley.- Joanna Lumley.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58I bet you don't. Let's see how many of our 100 people
0:07:58 > 0:07:59went for Joanna Lumley.
0:08:03 > 0:08:04It's absolutely right.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07- OK.- 60.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09- APPLAUSE - It's not a bad result, OK.
0:08:09 > 0:08:1060 for Joanna Lumley.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Yeah, born in Srinigarth, Joanna Lumley.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Her first credited film role was in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Thank you very much indeed. Faryl, welcome to Pointless.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23- Hello.- Good to have you here. So, yes, you were 12 when you did Britain's Got Talent.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25I was 12, yes. Very young.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27Did somebody push you forwards for that, or did you...?
0:08:27 > 0:08:30No, not at all. Probably the opposite. It was me, really.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33My mum and dad were very scared. They thought I was a bit too young.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34But I really wanted to do it.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37- And so what are you doing now? What have you gone on to do? - Still singing,
0:08:37 > 0:08:40still performing and also studying at the moment, cos I'm still only 20,
0:08:40 > 0:08:43so I'm still studying music.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45So, what sort of direction do you think your singing will go in?
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Hopefully, I would like to be in operas, when I'm older,
0:08:48 > 0:08:51but it's a lot of training, so I'll have to work hard.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53The old coloratura, how's that coming on?
0:08:53 > 0:08:57- Mm.- Yeah. Well, very, very best of luck with that, Faryl.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00But good luck with this board, as well.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02The easier ones are beginning to go.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04I actually don't know any of these.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08I mean, to be honest, most of them are before I was even born, in 1995,
0:09:08 > 0:09:13but, erm, I actually have no clue, I can't answer any of them.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16Which means, Faryl, you're going to have to make something up.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17I'll have to make up a name?
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Yeah.- I'm going to say Prince...
0:09:20 > 0:09:23No, actually, no, that's weird. Erm...
0:09:23 > 0:09:25I'm just going to say a prince.
0:09:25 > 0:09:26I'm going to say Prince Edward,
0:09:26 > 0:09:30cos I've met him a few times and he's a lovely man.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32OK. FARYL LAUGHS
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Slightly Oedipal, but there we go.
0:09:36 > 0:09:40Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Prince Edward.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42LAUGHTER
0:09:46 > 0:09:48- Oh, no way! - Not, I'm afraid, a correct answer.
0:09:48 > 0:09:49- So surprised.- I'm sorry.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51- That's fine. - That scores you 100 points.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55Yeah, listen, I'm very aware that is before your time, but the Queen,
0:09:55 > 0:09:58if she's watching, she did not marry one of her children.
0:09:58 > 0:09:59- I know. - LAUGHTER
0:09:59 > 0:10:01That's why I said it was going to be weird...
0:10:01 > 0:10:04- 20-odd years. It would be so weird, wouldn't it?- I know.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08- So sorry. - He would have to be his own father.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Yeah, he would have had to marry his mum 20 years before he was born.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13It's all getting very weird.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- In a kind of Back To The Future type scenario.- Yeah.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Well, listen, poor old Prince Edward.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Perhaps they're all watching at home now at Sandringham.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22I mean, that is awkward, isn't it?
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- That's awkward.- Cos they'll know...
0:10:24 > 0:10:26The royal family will know the answer.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29- Yeah.- All of them will. - But Edward's going,
0:10:29 > 0:10:33- "Oh, this is... Oh, can we...? - FARYL AND ALEXANDER LAUGH
0:10:33 > 0:10:34"Do you mind if we watch The Chase?"
0:10:34 > 0:10:36That's what Edward's saying.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Thank you very much indeed.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40- Allen.- That's me.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43What would you like me to call you? Tony?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45- Tony would be great. - Allen and Foster, I mean,
0:10:45 > 0:10:48it's lovely, it means everyone then knows exactly who you are.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51- It's just it's a bit like school for me.- A little bit.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Tony, what a great treat to have you here.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56So, how long have you been playing together?
0:10:56 > 0:10:5841 years this year.
0:10:58 > 0:11:0041 years! That is incredible. APPLAUSE
0:11:03 > 0:11:05And how did it come about?
0:11:05 > 0:11:08I joined a band when I was 16
0:11:08 > 0:11:10and Mick was already a member of that band,
0:11:10 > 0:11:12back in the middle of Ireland, in the Midlands.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14And we were touring around,
0:11:14 > 0:11:18not doing very much and Mick had an idea that we should be a duo.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Did you have a massive row with the others?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22No, we just moved on.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26Wonderful. Now, Tony, this board is all yours.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28If you wanted to go through it and suggest some answers...
0:11:28 > 0:11:31The only one I have a shot at is,
0:11:31 > 0:11:35and I shouldn't say things like that, is, er...
0:11:35 > 0:11:36Prince Philip.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:11:38 > 0:11:40If anyone would appreciate that gag, he would.
0:11:40 > 0:11:41LAUGHTER
0:11:41 > 0:11:45Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Prince Philip.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52There you are. 83. APPLAUSE
0:11:52 > 0:11:54High score. But it's right.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58Yeah, we finally solve the mystery of who the Queen married.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00LAUGHTER
0:12:00 > 0:12:04It was her husband, Prince Philip, all along.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Edward, you can turn back on now.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Yeah, Prince Philip, 83 points.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13Now, the lead singer of The Clash, Joe Strummer, the answer there.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15Would've scored you five points.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18The first English author to receive the Nobel Prize for literature...
0:12:18 > 0:12:21- Rudyard Kipling.- Rudyard Kipling. Would've scored you nine points.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- The comedian?- Eddie Izzard. - Eddie Izzard.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27Would've scored you 19. And the Lib Dem leader, they've had a few.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30- Paddy Ashdown. - This one was Paddy Ashdown.
0:12:30 > 0:12:31Would've scored you 20 points.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33So, the best answer on the board is Joe Strummer.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Very well done if you said that.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38The worst answer on the board was Prince Edward. Prince Edward.
0:12:38 > 0:12:39LAUGHTER
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Thank you. We're halfway through the round.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43Let's take a little recap of those scores.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Pauline. Look at that!
0:12:45 > 0:12:47A great score anyway, but now we see it in the context of all the others,
0:12:47 > 0:12:50we realise what a truly great score that was - 21.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Pauline and Harvey looking very strong.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54We hike quite a way up the mountain,
0:12:54 > 0:12:58then we find Michelle and Lee on 60 - and then we go up to 83,
0:12:58 > 0:13:00where we find Foster and Allen,
0:13:00 > 0:13:02and then up to 100, Faryl and Jonathan.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04The nice thing is, you're not that far ahead.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06- It's all on me. - Yeah, it is all on you.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09- OK. Not Edward. Not... - No, not Edward.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10Why didn't I say Philip?
0:13:10 > 0:13:13A low score from you and you'll be through to Round Two.
0:13:13 > 0:13:18We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:13:20 > 0:13:21OK. Let's put seven more
0:13:21 > 0:13:24famous people born abroad up on the board
0:13:24 > 0:13:25- and here they are.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29We have...
0:13:54 > 0:13:56I'll read those all one last time...
0:14:23 > 0:14:27There we are. Mick, a very warm welcome to you.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29So, yes, picking up the story...
0:14:29 > 0:14:31- Thanks very much. - You had huge success.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35You've sold over 22 million albums worldwide.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39Yeah, we had more success than we even expected.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43Er... Plan A, in 1975,
0:14:43 > 0:14:47was that we'd be able to make a living in Ireland
0:14:47 > 0:14:49just playing music, without having to have a day job, as well.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52- Yeah.- And by '77,
0:14:52 > 0:14:56we had achieved that and I'd far sooner
0:14:56 > 0:15:00be playing an accordion now than answering these questions.
0:15:00 > 0:15:01LAUGHTER
0:15:01 > 0:15:04If, at any stage, if you want to get the accordion...
0:15:04 > 0:15:07If I had it and I could choose, I would definitely do it.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Because I was just looking at,
0:15:09 > 0:15:15at the 14 questions and the only one I knew was the one Tony had, so...
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Erm...
0:15:17 > 0:15:19And I can't confer.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21The reason I put him on first
0:15:21 > 0:15:25was because I said, "He surely knows something." I know nothing.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26LAUGHTER
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Erm...
0:15:28 > 0:15:31You know, there's more brains in a hen's head than in mine
0:15:31 > 0:15:34- and there's only an inch between a hen's ears.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36LAUGHTER
0:15:36 > 0:15:37Er...
0:15:37 > 0:15:40Can we have Foster and Allen on every week?
0:15:40 > 0:15:43- Every week...- I would love that. - Ah...
0:15:43 > 0:15:47Erm... You probably had us on podium number four
0:15:47 > 0:15:49because we're nearest the door to go home.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Not a bit of it. You might have to just make up a name.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Er...
0:15:58 > 0:16:03The third one down, the name I come up with would be...
0:16:03 > 0:16:05Is it Ken Livingstone?
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Ken Livingstone, OK.
0:16:07 > 0:16:08Ken Livingstone, says Mick.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11There is your red line. If you can get below that with Ken Livingstone,
0:16:11 > 0:16:13you'd be through to the next round.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15- Let's see how many... - Otherwise I'm going home.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Let's see how many of our 100 people said Ken Livingstone.
0:16:17 > 0:16:18Is it right?
0:16:22 > 0:16:23I'm afraid not.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25- See yous again. - LAUGHTER
0:16:25 > 0:16:29That scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 183.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31The round is not yet over though, Mick.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Don't you worry.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Yeah, he was a Mayor of London,
0:16:35 > 0:16:37but not the answer to that clue, I'm afraid.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41Thanks very much indeed. Now, Jonathan, welcome to Pointless.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43- Thanks for having me.- So, G4...
0:16:43 > 0:16:44- Yes.- G4 is still going, isn't it?
0:16:44 > 0:16:47We are, yeah. We're back for good, we're touring again and it's
0:16:47 > 0:16:49been great to have seven years away
0:16:49 > 0:16:52- and now do it again and enjoy each other's company once more.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Did you just go off to pursue your own individual projects?
0:16:55 > 0:16:58Exactly. Yeah, we weren't all having fun and we always said we wanted to
0:16:58 > 0:17:01be enjoying everything we did, on and offstage,
0:17:01 > 0:17:02so we walked away in 2007,
0:17:02 > 0:17:05and in 2014, came back and it's been better than ever.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07You're touring at the moment, are you?
0:17:07 > 0:17:08Yeah, back for the tour throughout the year
0:17:08 > 0:17:11and then back out at Christmas, new album next year.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13It's really exciting, but in and amongst all our solo things,
0:17:13 > 0:17:15so we get the satisfaction of pursuing that
0:17:15 > 0:17:19and then come back together as a group, it's great.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Lovely. Now, Jonathan, you're on 100 points.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25- The high-scorers are behind you... - The pressure's all on me.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Listen, if you score 82 or less...
0:17:27 > 0:17:28- OK.- 82 or less.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30- 82 or less?- Yeah.- OK.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32- Erm... - JONATHAN LAUGHS
0:17:32 > 0:17:35I'm not going to go for the hardest, or probably the best-scoring
0:17:35 > 0:17:38one on here, but for the Harry Potter star,
0:17:38 > 0:17:40I'd say Emma Watson.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41Emma Watson, says Jonathan.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43- Here is your red line. - Is 82 below that?
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Well, if you can get below that, that red line,
0:17:46 > 0:17:48- you are through to the next round. - Fingers crossed.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Let's see how many of our 100 people said Emma Watson.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57It's right... And you've done it. Very well done indeed, Jonathan.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00Oh, not bad. Look at that!
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Down it goes to 20. APPLAUSE
0:18:04 > 0:18:06You are stepping through to Round Two, Faryl and Jonathan.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08120 is your total.
0:18:08 > 0:18:09Well played, Jonathan. Very nicely done.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Yes, she lived in Paris till she was five
0:18:11 > 0:18:13- and then she lived next door to you.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16- And then she moved next door to me. - Yeah.- Isn't that funny?
0:18:16 > 0:18:18That's sweet. How old was she when she moved next door to you?
0:18:18 > 0:18:20- Five.- No way!
0:18:20 > 0:18:22- Really?- Yeah.- Did you know they'd moved from Paris?
0:18:22 > 0:18:25I didn't know then that they'd moved from Paris.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27- But now you do.- Now I do.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29Yes. Very much.
0:18:29 > 0:18:30- Now, Lee...- Hello.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Welcome to Pointless.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Actually, do you know what? You also seem to have put your musical career
0:18:35 > 0:18:39on hold and you've also pursued acting and fitness.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41- What is it with you guys? - Yeah, all sorts.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44I did fitness from a kid. I've done martial arts since I was eight.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46I've studied fitness all my life, so...
0:18:46 > 0:18:49- You're a karate... What are you? - Now I'm a second dan kickboxer.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51- Wow.- But I did karate from the age of eight.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53- A second-hand...- Second-hand?
0:18:53 > 0:18:56- I'm not that bad! - Second DAN kickboxer.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59- Sorry, I misheard there.- Basically means two above black belt.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01But you've also been doing theatre, as well?
0:19:01 > 0:19:04You did some West End stuff, Grease and stuff on the West End.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- Yeah.- But you've now gone into just straight acting, as well?
0:19:07 > 0:19:09Yeah, I did. I've done a few plays.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12I've done Rita, Sue and Bob Too. That was loads of fun,
0:19:12 > 0:19:15I did that as a play. More Creatures Great And Small, I did that.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17I'll be at the Edinburgh Fringe this year, as well,
0:19:17 > 0:19:19doing Eurobeat Moldova. Doing that, as well.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Excellent. Well, that's one not to miss,
0:19:21 > 0:19:24if you're going up to the festival. Now, Lee, great news.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Doesn't matter what you score at this point,
0:19:26 > 0:19:28- you're still going to make it to Round Two.- Thank you...
0:19:28 > 0:19:31You are. What would you like to go for?
0:19:31 > 0:19:33None, really.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35I'm just going to throw caution to the wind.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37I haven't really got a clue, I'm going to go second one down,
0:19:37 > 0:19:39Florence Nightingale.
0:19:39 > 0:19:40Florence Nightingale.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43OK. Well, no red line, you're already through.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47Let's see how far down the column we get with Florence Nightingale.
0:19:49 > 0:19:50- It's right.- Ooh!
0:19:51 > 0:19:5462. Not bad. APPLAUSE
0:19:56 > 0:19:58And nicely balanced with Michelle's score in the first pass.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00122 is your total.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03Yes, born in Florence, of course, and she was on the £10 note
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- and on the other side of the £10 note was the Queen, who...
0:20:07 > 0:20:11- Yeah.- We recently discovered married Prince Philip.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- LAUGHTER - Prince Philip, she married.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16- Yeah.- Yeah. - I think the right choice.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19- I think so. Yeah.- Yes.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Thank you very much.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23- Harvey.- How are you, sir?
0:20:23 > 0:20:25It's great to have you here. I'm very well, thank you.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- Pleasure.- So Solid Crew...- Mm-hm? - Now, how did that start?
0:20:29 > 0:20:31What was the origin of So Solid Crew?
0:20:31 > 0:20:34We've all grown up in the kind of same council estate in Battersea,
0:20:34 > 0:20:36- South London.- Yeah.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40We was all, you know, had no idea that we all had this musical talent.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42We was all off doing various different things
0:20:42 > 0:20:44and it just started to form organically,
0:20:44 > 0:20:47started to MC on a local radio station and a couple of years
0:20:47 > 0:20:49later, Brit Awards, Mobos, millions of records sold.
0:20:49 > 0:20:54- Random.- I was going to say, what was the point you suddenly thought, "Actually, we're really good"?
0:20:54 > 0:20:57You sort of kicked off the hip-hop grime scene.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00Yeah, it was probably when I started walking down my local high street
0:21:00 > 0:21:01and kids were chasing after me
0:21:01 > 0:21:05and hearing people drive past me, singing 21 Seconds in their cars.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08It was this weird... And obviously, at the point, like anyone,
0:21:08 > 0:21:11when you win a Brit award and Michael Madsen from Reservoir Dogs
0:21:11 > 0:21:14is telling you he likes your group, I was like, "I think I've made it."
0:21:14 > 0:21:16- Yeah.- It wasn't planned at all.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Good for you, Harvey. Again, good news for you,
0:21:18 > 0:21:21you are through to the next round. Doesn't matter what you score,
0:21:21 > 0:21:23but you're the last person to have this board,
0:21:23 > 0:21:26so if you wanted to go down it and just have a shot at any of the ones
0:21:26 > 0:21:29- that no-one's answered yet... - All the ones I knew have gone.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32Oh, gosh. I'm just going to do a random.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33I don't know any of them.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35I'm going to go for probably the former editor of the Spectator
0:21:35 > 0:21:38who became Mayor of London. I've properly got this wrong
0:21:38 > 0:21:41and everyone's going to laugh, but I'm going to say Boris, cos that's all I know.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44- OK, you're going to say Boris. - Yeah.- The surname for him?
0:21:44 > 0:21:47I don't even know Boris's surname, I just call him Boris.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49LAUGHTER
0:21:49 > 0:21:51The one that rugby tackled that kid, that one.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54That's him. Yeah.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56- Er, Boris.- Boris Johnson.
0:21:56 > 0:21:57Boris Johnson, well said.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59No red line, you're already through.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Boris.
0:22:02 > 0:22:03Not even looking.
0:22:06 > 0:22:07It's right.
0:22:10 > 0:22:1250 for Boris Johnson. APPLAUSE
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Takes your total up to 71.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16The lowest score of the round, I might add.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Well played, Harvey. Born in New York City, Boris Johnson.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22- How did I pull that off? - Real name, Alexander.
0:22:22 > 0:22:23Same name as you.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26- His real name, Alexander. - Boris is just a nickname?
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Yeah. I think he's called Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31That's right, yes...
0:22:31 > 0:22:33Now, the creator of Downton Abbey?
0:22:33 > 0:22:35- Julian Fellowes.- Julian Fellowes.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38He would've scored you 25.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40The writer who introduced newspeak?
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- George Orwell.- George Orwell.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Would've scored you 17.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46We'll go down to the bottom. The naturalist?
0:22:46 > 0:22:48- Gerald Durrell. - Gerald Durrell, 37 points.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Now, the best answer on the board,
0:22:50 > 0:22:53is this next one - and it's Dorothy Hodgkin.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56Very well done if you said that at home. One point for that.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59So, at the end of our first round, the pair we have to send home,
0:22:59 > 0:23:01this is just far too sad, it's Tony and Mick.
0:23:01 > 0:23:02Thank you so much for coming to play.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04- It's been a real treat.- Thank you.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Thanks so much. Foster and Allen. APPLAUSE
0:23:11 > 0:23:14But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:23:18 > 0:23:19And so three pairs remain.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22At the end of this round, we'll have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25But well done. You survived that first round.
0:23:25 > 0:23:26- That was a tough round. - It was tough.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27That was a tough round.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30And, Jonathan, our lowest individual scorer of the round,
0:23:30 > 0:23:33- so well done, you. - Thanks.- With Emma Watson there.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39Our category for Round Two this evening is...
0:23:39 > 0:23:42UK Cities. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:23:42 > 0:23:44who's going to go second?
0:23:44 > 0:23:47And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:23:49 > 0:23:50OK. Let's find out what the question is.
0:23:50 > 0:23:56Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:24:00 > 0:24:01..as they could.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05UK cities with the letters U or K in their name.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09- Richard.- Simply looking for any city in the United Kingdom which has
0:24:09 > 0:24:11a U or a K anywhere in its name, please.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15Thank you very much. Now, Pauline, what would you like to go for?
0:24:15 > 0:24:22Erm, I think that I'll go for a place with a K in it,
0:24:22 > 0:24:24erm...
0:24:24 > 0:24:26And I'm going to say...
0:24:26 > 0:24:29- Wakefield.- Wakefield, says Pauline.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Let's see if that's right.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Wakefield.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37It's right.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44I think that's going to go a long way down.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46And it does. Look at that, Pauline!
0:24:46 > 0:24:47For the second time running,
0:24:47 > 0:24:50giving one of the best answers around.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52- Three.- That's very well played, Pauline.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56One of those cities people don't perhaps quite realise are a city.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58In West Yorkshire, on the River Calder.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Thank you very much indeed. Now, Lee...
0:25:01 > 0:25:02Yes, erm...
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Tough one again.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07I'm just going to shout it out there, Scunthorpe?
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Scunthorpe, says Lee.
0:25:09 > 0:25:14Let's see if it's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Scunthorpe.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19- Ooh, Lee.- What?!- Never mind.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21I'm so sorry.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24- Great on the U front.- Yeah. - Less good on the city front.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26I'm afraid that scores you 100 points. Sorry.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Exactly. Another one of those places people don't realise is a city
0:25:29 > 0:25:31- and that's because it's not one.
0:25:31 > 0:25:32LAUGHTER
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Now, Jonathan.
0:25:34 > 0:25:35Yeah, I was flummoxed,
0:25:35 > 0:25:37trying to even just work out towns
0:25:37 > 0:25:40and then I realised it actually did say cities.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43I'm going to try Milton Keynes.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45Milton Keynes, says Jonathan.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47Look, that gets you a buzz.
0:25:47 > 0:25:51That got you a buzz, Jonathan. Let's see if the buzz was right.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Milton Keynes. How many of our 100 people said it?
0:25:56 > 0:25:57Ooh!
0:25:58 > 0:26:02That can only mean one thing, I'm afraid. That scores you 100 points.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04- Fair's fair. - That is unlucky, actually,
0:26:04 > 0:26:06cos they have places that apply to become cities every now and again
0:26:06 > 0:26:08- and Milton Keynes has applied to become a city.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11- Close.- Not yet one. One day it will be.- They should be.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14I'll be there, then I'll get it right.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16When this is repeated on Challenge, that will be a correct answer.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19Play this next year, it'll be all right.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Yeah. OK, well, we're halfway through the round.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24Let's look at those scores. Only two scores between our teams.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27What a different couple of scenarios we have there.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Pauline, beautiful low score there.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32Wakefield. Brilliant answer.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34And then we travel up to 100,
0:26:34 > 0:26:36where we find Jonathan and Faryl and Lee and Michelle.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39Yes, Faryl and Michelle, you're going to have to jockey it out.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41Good luck. I'm going to leave that in your hands.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43We'll come back down the line now.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:26:48 > 0:26:51OK. So, Faryl, remember,
0:26:51 > 0:26:54we are looking for any city in the UK that contains either
0:26:54 > 0:26:57the letter U or the letter K anywhere in its name.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00I'm going to say something that's got a U in it, but I don't know...
0:27:00 > 0:27:03Don't say that. Don't say that... LAUGHTER
0:27:05 > 0:27:06Southampton.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08Southampton, says Faryl.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10No red line for you, you're joint high-scorers.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12Sounds good to me.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Let's see how many of our 100 people said Southampton.
0:27:17 > 0:27:18- It's right.- Hey!- Yes.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22It's a good one.
0:27:22 > 0:27:23It is a good one.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26Look at that. 15, Southampton. Very well done indeed, Faryl.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28APPLAUSE 115 is your total.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31Well played, Faryl. That's more like it, isn't it?
0:27:31 > 0:27:33Yeah, the largest city in Hampshire, Southampton.
0:27:33 > 0:27:37It's got the world's oldest bowling green, 1299.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39No? That's cheap!
0:27:39 > 0:27:40GENTLE LAUGHTER
0:27:40 > 0:27:42Thanks very much indeed. Michelle, wow.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45- You now have a target, Michelle. - I know, what a nightmare.
0:27:45 > 0:27:4614 or less.
0:27:46 > 0:27:50Haven't... I was going to say yours, then I was going to say Faryl's.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52So now I'm like, great...
0:27:52 > 0:27:55I'm going to go for Sunderland.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58- Sunderland.- Please tell me it's a city, otherwise I'm never
0:27:58 > 0:27:59going to be able to go home.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02Here is your red line. If you get below that with Sunderland,
0:28:02 > 0:28:04you are through to the next round,
0:28:04 > 0:28:06into the head-to-head, whereupon you can start conferring.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08It'll be marvellous. Let's see.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10- Is it right, though?- Yeah, I don't know if he's any help.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12Sunderland, is it right?
0:28:15 > 0:28:19It is right. Now, the question is, will it go below that red line?
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Yes, it will. Seven, very well done indeed.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25Seven for Sunderland. APPLAUSE
0:28:25 > 0:28:27Taking your total up to 107.
0:28:29 > 0:28:30Very well played, Michelle.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34Yeah, Sunderland. It's got a U in it, just after the S.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36- Thank you very much indeed. Now, Harvey...- Yes, sir.
0:28:36 > 0:28:39Great news, you're through. Doesn't matter what you score.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42But I bet you've got a good answer there.
0:28:42 > 0:28:44Of course. I'm going to go for Southampton's rivals,
0:28:44 > 0:28:46I'm going to stay on the south coast,
0:28:46 > 0:28:48I'm going to go for Bournemouth.
0:28:48 > 0:28:51- Bournemouth, says Harvey.- Yeah. - Ooh, look, another buzz.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53We're buzz rich in this round.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55No red line for you, cos you're already through,
0:28:55 > 0:28:58but let's see how many of our 100 people said Bournemouth.
0:29:00 > 0:29:01Oh, wow.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04Well, fancy... Isn't that a slap in the face for Bournemouth?
0:29:04 > 0:29:08What about that? That scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 103,
0:29:08 > 0:29:10but it couldn't matter less. You're through anyway.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13Not a city. I thought you were going to say Southampton's real rivals, Portsmouth.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16- I know but...- Portsmouth would've scored you nine points,
0:29:16 > 0:29:18- would've been a terrific answer. - Of course.
0:29:18 > 0:29:20But you are safely through anyway, so it matters not.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23There's actually two pointless answers out there.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26In Northern Ireland, Lisburn, that was a pointless answer.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28And Salisbury, also a pointless answer.
0:29:28 > 0:29:32- Well done if you said either of them.- You'd have got two points for Newcastle upon Tyne,
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Wakefield is the next best answer you could've got, Pauline,
0:29:34 > 0:29:37so very well played. Five for Peterborough, six for Gloucester,
0:29:37 > 0:29:41seven for Canterbury and Truro, eight for Plymouth.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44You'd have got 11 for Durham, 12 for Dundee,
0:29:44 > 0:29:4513 for Stoke-on-Trent.
0:29:45 > 0:29:4717 for Kingston upon Hull,
0:29:47 > 0:29:50the only one that begins with one of those letters.
0:29:50 > 0:29:5332 for York and 32 for Edinburgh.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55Thank you very much, Richard. So at the end of our second round,
0:29:55 > 0:29:58the pair we have to send home with their high score of 115,
0:29:58 > 0:30:01it's Farrell and Jonathan, but please come back and play again.
0:30:01 > 0:30:02It's been lovely having you here.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05Thank you so much, Farrell and Jonathan.
0:30:05 > 0:30:06APPLAUSE
0:30:08 > 0:30:11But for Pauline and Harvey, Lee and Michelle,
0:30:11 > 0:30:13it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:30:13 > 0:30:14APPLAUSE
0:30:16 > 0:30:19Congratulations, Pauline and Harvey, Lee and Michelle.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21You're now one step closer to the final
0:30:21 > 0:30:23and the chance to play for our jackpot,
0:30:23 > 0:30:26which currently stands at £2,500.
0:30:29 > 0:30:31This is where we decide who goes through to the final
0:30:31 > 0:30:33to play for that jackpot for their charities.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35We do that by making you go head-to-head.
0:30:35 > 0:30:38First pair to win two questions will be playing for the jackpot.
0:30:38 > 0:30:41Very best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Here's your first question and it concerns...
0:30:52 > 0:30:53Wartime Songs, Richard.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55We're going to play you extracts now from five songs
0:30:55 > 0:30:57which were famous during the Second World War.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00All you need to do is tell us the name of one of these songs, please.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02Very best of luck.
0:31:02 > 0:31:06OK, so we're looking for the song titles of these wartime songs.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09And here they are. We have Song A.
0:31:09 > 0:31:13# I'll be watching o'er you
0:31:13 > 0:31:17# Tears at the parting
0:31:17 > 0:31:22# May make us forlorn
0:31:22 > 0:31:26# But with the dawn
0:31:26 > 0:31:31# A new day is born... #
0:31:31 > 0:31:33Song B.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36# In a little honky-tonky village in Texas
0:31:36 > 0:31:39# There's the guy who plays the best piano by far
0:31:39 > 0:31:42# He can play piano any way that you like it
0:31:42 > 0:31:45# But the way he likes to play is eight to the bar
0:31:45 > 0:31:49# When he plays it's a ball He's the daddy of them all... #
0:31:50 > 0:31:52Song C.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55INSTRUMENTAL EXTRACT
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Song D.
0:32:19 > 0:32:23# Keep smiling through
0:32:23 > 0:32:28# Just like you always do
0:32:28 > 0:32:32# Till the blue skies chase those dark clouds
0:32:32 > 0:32:38# Far away... #
0:32:38 > 0:32:40And Song E.
0:32:44 > 0:32:48# That certain night, the night we met
0:32:48 > 0:32:53# There was magic abroad in the air
0:32:53 > 0:32:58# There were angels dining at the Ritz... #
0:32:58 > 0:33:01There we are. Now, then, Pauline and Harvey, you will go first.
0:33:01 > 0:33:02You are our low scorers.
0:33:02 > 0:33:06I think E is Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square, say Pauline and Harvey.
0:33:09 > 0:33:13Now, then, Lee and Michelle, do you want to talk us through the rest?
0:33:13 > 0:33:15- Oh, yeah, of course.- Oh, yeah.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18Don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know. Don't know.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20We're thinking, "Oh, I don't know."
0:33:20 > 0:33:22C, I think, might be "Something Waltz".
0:33:22 > 0:33:26- Yeah, I think that's our best bet. - I want to say Maritime Waltz.
0:33:26 > 0:33:28- For- C. For- C. C, Maritime Waltz.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31So we have Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square for E,
0:33:31 > 0:33:33and C, Maritime Waltz.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35Now, Pauline and Harvey,
0:33:35 > 0:33:37Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square, E.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39Is it right? How many people said it?
0:33:42 > 0:33:45It is Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square.
0:33:48 > 0:33:4933.
0:33:53 > 0:33:59Now, then, Lee and Michelle have gone for Maritime Waltz for C.
0:33:59 > 0:34:03Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:34:06 > 0:34:10- Oh.- It was a guess. - No, I'm afraid not.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13Yeah, not in 3/4, not a waltz.
0:34:13 > 0:34:14Which means well done -
0:34:14 > 0:34:17after one question, Pauline and Harvey, you are up 1-0.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20Yeah, let's take a listen to a little snippet of each of these
0:34:20 > 0:34:21and give the answers.
0:34:21 > 0:34:22The first one...
0:34:22 > 0:34:25SONG A PLAYS
0:34:25 > 0:34:27Know this one?
0:34:27 > 0:34:29- Goodnight Sweetheart. - Goodnight Sweetheart.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31Yeah, that would have scored you 21.
0:34:31 > 0:34:35The next one is the toughest one by an absolute mile.
0:34:35 > 0:34:37SONG B PLAYS
0:34:37 > 0:34:40It is 1 point if you said Beat Me Daddy, Eight To The Bar.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43Well done if you said that. The Andrews Sisters did a version of that.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46- There we go.- The next one,
0:34:46 > 0:34:48the one that you thought was Maritime Waltz,
0:34:48 > 0:34:49is a Glen Miller composition.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51- Moonlight Serenade. - Moonlight Serenade, yep.
0:34:51 > 0:34:55Sent out to the troops in 1943, this song.
0:34:55 > 0:34:565 points for that.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59And actually not the highest scorer of this selection
0:34:59 > 0:35:01but the most famous wartime song of all.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03- We'll Meet Again. - We'll Meet Again, yup.
0:35:04 > 0:35:07That would have scored 24.
0:35:07 > 0:35:11I was singing that, as well - I thought, "How does it end?"
0:35:11 > 0:35:13Thank you very much indeed. Here comes your second question now.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15Lee and Michelle, you get to answer first,
0:35:15 > 0:35:17but you have to win it to stay in the game.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19- OK.- Very best of luck.
0:35:19 > 0:35:22Our second question this evening is all about...
0:35:24 > 0:35:26- Richard? - We'll show you five pictures now
0:35:26 > 0:35:28of characters portrayed by two different actors.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30One when they were younger, one when they were older.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32We need the name of the film or film franchise
0:35:32 > 0:35:34these characters appeared in.
0:35:34 > 0:35:37Thanks very much indeed. So, let's reveal our five sets of characters.
0:35:37 > 0:35:38Here they are.
0:36:01 > 0:36:03There we are.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06We just need to know what the film franchise is in each case.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08Lee and Michelle will go first.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10Do you know B?
0:36:10 > 0:36:12- Um...OK, go for it.- Do you know B?
0:36:12 > 0:36:14- If you know A...- I think it is.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16- I think it is. - If you don't, then do C.
0:36:16 > 0:36:19OK, we'll go for C, I think it's quite obvious,
0:36:19 > 0:36:20but it is the Star Wars franchise.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22OK, Star Wars, say Lee and Michelle.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26- For C, Star Wars. - That is a mini Darth Vader, there.
0:36:26 > 0:36:31Now, Pauline and Harvey, do you want to talk us through all the others?
0:36:31 > 0:36:35OK. Obviously, A, I would say The Godfather.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38E, Indiana Jones.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41- D is Star Trek.- D, Star Trek.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44We are not too sure about B.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46We would like to go for E.
0:36:46 > 0:36:48- E?- Yup, Indiana Jones.
0:36:48 > 0:36:50OK, we have Star Wars and Indiana Jones.
0:36:50 > 0:36:53So Lee and Michelle went for Star Wars for C.
0:36:53 > 0:36:56Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people got it.
0:36:59 > 0:37:01It is Star Wars.
0:37:04 > 0:37:0547.
0:37:08 > 0:37:1147 for Star Wars. Now, Pauline and Harvey, meanwhile,
0:37:11 > 0:37:13have gone for E, Indiana Jones.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people got that.
0:37:19 > 0:37:20It's right...
0:37:22 > 0:37:24Not bad, 54.
0:37:24 > 0:37:27But well done, Lee and Michelle, you're back in the game.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29After two questions, it's one apiece.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31Yeah, it's only B that would have won it for you
0:37:31 > 0:37:33cos A is the Godfather.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35That would have scored you 64.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37D was Star Trek
0:37:37 > 0:37:40and that would have scored you 74.
0:37:40 > 0:37:41B, that is Rob Lowe
0:37:41 > 0:37:43and it is Robert Wagner.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45They both play Number Two.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47- It is Austin Powers. - MICHELLE:- That's it! Oh...
0:37:47 > 0:37:49Would have scored 24 points.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52Rob Lowe did an impression of Robert Wagner for Mike Myers
0:37:52 > 0:37:54on a golf course and he immediately offered him the part.
0:37:54 > 0:37:56Brilliant. Thank you very much indeed.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59OK, here is your third question. It all comes down to this.
0:37:59 > 0:38:02Whoever wins this goes through to the final to play for that jackpot.
0:38:02 > 0:38:06Best of luck to both pairs. Our third question is all about...
0:38:07 > 0:38:09LAUGHTER
0:38:09 > 0:38:11We are going to show you five things you might find
0:38:11 > 0:38:13in a full English breakfast,
0:38:13 > 0:38:14but they are in the form of anagrams.
0:38:14 > 0:38:18Can you unscramble them and give us the most obscure answer, please?
0:38:18 > 0:38:21Mmm...scrambled English breakfast.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24Mmm. Let's reveal our five anagrams. Here they come.
0:38:40 > 0:38:44Now, then, Pauline and Harvey, you will go first again this time.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48THEY CONFER
0:38:54 > 0:38:57I am going to stay true to my name.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00I am going to go for the fourth one down, the PADDLING BUCK one.
0:39:00 > 0:39:01That is black pudding.
0:39:01 > 0:39:05Black pudding, say Pauline and Harvey.
0:39:05 > 0:39:09Now, then, Lee and Michelle, what are you going to go for?
0:39:09 > 0:39:10Do you want to go through the others?
0:39:10 > 0:39:13- I think top is hash brown. - Hash brown.
0:39:13 > 0:39:17- Scrambled egg is the third one. - Yeah, scrambled egg, third one.
0:39:17 > 0:39:21I can't work out the second one. Beans. Something beans.
0:39:21 > 0:39:22Um...
0:39:22 > 0:39:25- Can't really work that one out. - I don't know.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Let's do scrambled egg.
0:39:27 > 0:39:28We'll go with scrambled egg.
0:39:28 > 0:39:31You're going to go scrambled egg for MISS CRAB LEGGED.
0:39:31 > 0:39:32We have black pudding and scrambled egg.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34Pauline and Harvey said black pudding.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:39:40 > 0:39:41It's right.
0:39:44 > 0:39:4652.
0:39:46 > 0:39:4852 for black pudding.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51Meanwhile, Lee and Michelle have gone for scrambled eggs.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:39:57 > 0:40:01It's right. Is it going to beat 52?
0:40:01 > 0:40:03Yes, it is. By a bit.
0:40:03 > 0:40:0536. Well done.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07That means, Lee and Michelle,
0:40:07 > 0:40:11you are through to the final, 2-1.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13Very nicely done.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16The top answer was hash brown, you were right about that.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18Would have scored you 58.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20The biggest answer is certainly beans,
0:40:20 > 0:40:21it is just baked beans.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23- Of course!- Would have scored 71.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26The best answer on the board was the bottom one.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28- Can you work that out?- Oh. Yes.
0:40:28 > 0:40:29- Pork sausages.- Pork sausages.
0:40:29 > 0:40:33Pork sausages. That would have scored 18.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36- Very well done if you said that. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38We are at the end of our head-to-head round
0:40:38 > 0:40:40and at this stage, I'm afraid we have to say goodbye
0:40:40 > 0:40:42to Pauline and Harvey.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44What a brilliant performance across the show.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46- Thank you very much. - Low score after low score.
0:40:46 > 0:40:50It has been lovely having you here. Thank you so much for playing. Pauline and Harvey.
0:40:53 > 0:40:55But for Lee and Michelle,
0:40:55 > 0:40:56it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02Well, congratulations, Lee and Michelle,
0:41:02 > 0:41:04you have fought off the competition
0:41:04 > 0:41:06and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15- Yes! That's what I wanted. - Cool.- You now have a chance
0:41:15 > 0:41:18to win our Pointless jackpot for your charities,
0:41:18 > 0:41:21and at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £2,500.
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Well, what about that? Pop has prevailed.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29- It has.- Who'd have thought?
0:41:29 > 0:41:31You have sent the others all walking.
0:41:31 > 0:41:33Complete and utter fluke.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35What would you like to see come up in this last round?
0:41:35 > 0:41:37Four things that'll appear on the board behind?
0:41:37 > 0:41:40- Um...- Films maybe? - Yeah, maybe films,
0:41:40 > 0:41:42or food-related questions.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45Very best of luck. Let's hope there's something you like
0:41:45 > 0:41:48the look of up here on today's board - we've got...
0:41:53 > 0:41:55Winners could be anything.
0:41:57 > 0:42:01- Um, OK.- Shall we go for...? Winners could be anything.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04- Think we'll have to go for Winners. - Poetry, no idea.- Absolutely no idea.
0:42:04 > 0:42:08- No.- Slam tennis, I'd know a few men's tennis players,
0:42:08 > 0:42:10but it depends what the question is going to be.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12We might have a better chance, going for Winners.
0:42:12 > 0:42:14- Yeah, let's just do Winners. - Let's go Winners.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16- OK, Winners it is. - I think probably the best choice.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19Three very different questions, so hopefully one of them,
0:42:19 > 0:42:20at least, will suit you.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22We are looking for any of the following, please.
0:42:22 > 0:42:27Any team that has won the Super Bowl from 1967 until 2016.
0:42:27 > 0:42:34Any film or any individual who won a Bafta in the 2016 awards.
0:42:34 > 0:42:35Or any song or album
0:42:35 > 0:42:37that won a Grammy
0:42:37 > 0:42:39in the 2016 Grammys.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Super Bowl winners,
0:42:41 > 0:42:45films or individuals who won Baftas in the 2016 film awards
0:42:45 > 0:42:49or any song or album which won a Grammy in 2016.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54You've got up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:42:54 > 0:42:55All you need to win that jackpot
0:42:55 > 0:42:57is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59- Are you ready?- OK, yeah.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03There they are. Your time starts now.
0:43:03 > 0:43:05OK. Super Bowl.
0:43:05 > 0:43:07Idris Elba for Bafta. I don't know if he's won one or not.
0:43:07 > 0:43:10I think he did, but I am not 100% sure.
0:43:10 > 0:43:15I know that Meghan Trainor just won a Grammy.
0:43:15 > 0:43:18I think Meghan Trainor is a good one cos it's not an obvious one.
0:43:18 > 0:43:21OK, shall we go with the Miami Dolphins...
0:43:21 > 0:43:22- OK... - ..for the Super Bowl?
0:43:22 > 0:43:25Miami Dolphins. Your call on the second.
0:43:25 > 0:43:26Meghan Trainor on third.
0:43:26 > 0:43:28Songs or albums for the Grammys.
0:43:28 > 0:43:30Oh, songs or albums.
0:43:30 > 0:43:32What was the song? Meghan Trainor.
0:43:32 > 0:43:35No, she won best newcomer or artist.
0:43:35 > 0:43:38Grammy songs or albums.
0:43:38 > 0:43:41THEY CONFER
0:43:41 > 0:43:45Bafta... Films...
0:43:45 > 0:43:47This is tough.
0:43:47 > 0:43:50It'd have to be Leo DiCaprio.
0:43:50 > 0:43:52- Bafta?- Did he win a Bafta?
0:43:52 > 0:43:56He did. He definitely did. I am sure he won a Bafta for that.
0:43:56 > 0:43:59He recently won an Oscar because there was big news about that.
0:43:59 > 0:44:02Those two that you just said, for Baftas,
0:44:02 > 0:44:03forget about the Grammys.
0:44:03 > 0:44:05OK, that is your time up, I'm afraid.
0:44:05 > 0:44:08I need your three answers. Say which category you are answering.
0:44:08 > 0:44:11Super Bowl would be the Miami Dolphins.
0:44:11 > 0:44:12Miami Dolphins.
0:44:12 > 0:44:16The Bafta... Guessing a bit on this. We're going to say Idris Elba.
0:44:16 > 0:44:19- Idris Elba.- And... - Leonardo DiCaprio.
0:44:19 > 0:44:21- You want to say Leo?- I think so. - OK, and Leonardo DiCaprio.
0:44:21 > 0:44:24Definitely won an Oscar, but did he win a Bafta?
0:44:24 > 0:44:26- Go on, then.- Those are the three you want to go for?- Yes.
0:44:26 > 0:44:28- Which of those do you think is...? - I think put Leo first.
0:44:28 > 0:44:31- You think he's least likely to be pointless?- Not sure.
0:44:31 > 0:44:33Leo first. Most likely to be pointless, best shot?
0:44:33 > 0:44:35- Yeah.- Super Bowl last?- Yeah.
0:44:35 > 0:44:36- Miami Dolphins last.- OK.
0:44:36 > 0:44:39OK, let's put those answers up on the board in that order.
0:44:39 > 0:44:41Here they are, we've got...
0:44:45 > 0:44:47Very best of luck. Three good answers on the board.
0:44:47 > 0:44:50If one of these turns out to be pointless and wins you that jackpot,
0:44:50 > 0:44:52your charities will be the richer for it.
0:44:52 > 0:44:54What charities are you playing for? Lee, you first.
0:44:54 > 0:44:56My wife suffers majorly at the moment with Crohn's disease,
0:44:56 > 0:44:58so I am doing Crohn's and Colitis.
0:44:58 > 0:45:00Very good. Michelle?
0:45:00 > 0:45:04- I am doing Haven House, which is a children's hospice.- Wonderful.
0:45:04 > 0:45:06APPLAUSE
0:45:07 > 0:45:09Two fantastic charities there.
0:45:09 > 0:45:11Let's hope one of these answers will be pointless
0:45:11 > 0:45:13and will win that jackpot for you to split between them.
0:45:13 > 0:45:15Your first answer was Leonardo DiCaprio.
0:45:15 > 0:45:20In this case, we were looking for Bafta film award winners in 2016.
0:45:20 > 0:45:22Only one of these answers has to be pointless
0:45:22 > 0:45:23for you to win that jackpot.
0:45:23 > 0:45:27For £2,500, let's see how many people said Leonardo DiCaprio.
0:45:31 > 0:45:32It's right.
0:45:32 > 0:45:35It just has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot
0:45:35 > 0:45:36for your charities.
0:45:36 > 0:45:41Leonardo DiCaprio taking us down through the 30s. Into the 20s.
0:45:41 > 0:45:43- Oh!- Ooh, 19.
0:45:43 > 0:45:44Good score.
0:45:44 > 0:45:47That would be a great score in a normal round,
0:45:47 > 0:45:50but sadly, in this round, we only are interested in pointless answers.
0:45:50 > 0:45:53Best of luck with your next two answers.
0:45:53 > 0:45:55Idris Elba was your second answer.
0:45:55 > 0:45:57You were not entirely sure if this is correct.
0:45:57 > 0:46:02Once again, we were looking for film Bafta award winners for 2016.
0:46:02 > 0:46:05For £2,500, let's see how many people said Idris Elba.
0:46:05 > 0:46:07Is it right? Is it pointless?
0:46:11 > 0:46:13Oh! Bad luck.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15Not on this occasion,
0:46:15 > 0:46:18which means everything is riding on your third and final answer,
0:46:18 > 0:46:19which is the Miami Dolphins.
0:46:19 > 0:46:22In this case, we were looking for any Super Bowl winner
0:46:22 > 0:46:24from 1967 to the present day.
0:46:24 > 0:46:26To win that jackpot of £2,500 for your charities,
0:46:26 > 0:46:29the Miami Dolphins has to be a pointless answer.
0:46:29 > 0:46:32Let's see how many of our 100 people said it. Miami Dolphins.
0:46:35 > 0:46:37It's right.
0:46:37 > 0:46:39Your first answer, Leonardo DiCaprio,
0:46:39 > 0:46:41took us all the way down to 19.
0:46:41 > 0:46:42Your second answer, Idris Elba, was incorrect,
0:46:42 > 0:46:44but your third answer, Miami Dolphins,
0:46:44 > 0:46:46taking us down through...
0:46:46 > 0:46:47Oh!
0:46:47 > 0:46:5011. Another good score.
0:46:50 > 0:46:52- We tried, we tried. - We definitely did try.
0:46:52 > 0:46:54Two nice, low scores there.
0:46:54 > 0:46:55Sadly, no pointless answers.
0:46:55 > 0:46:58I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot
0:46:58 > 0:46:59of £2,500 for your charities.
0:46:59 > 0:47:02However, as today's show is a celebrity special,
0:47:02 > 0:47:05we are going to donate £500 to each celebrity pair
0:47:05 > 0:47:07for their respective charities.
0:47:07 > 0:47:09Fantastic. Thank you so much.
0:47:09 > 0:47:11You have been superb - and you get to take home a trophy each,
0:47:11 > 0:47:13so very well done for that.
0:47:13 > 0:47:15Yeah, really good effort throughout.
0:47:15 > 0:47:18Idris Elba was nominated but didn't win one of those Baftas.
0:47:18 > 0:47:21Very good answer. Let's take a look at the pointless answers
0:47:21 > 0:47:23in all of the different categories.
0:47:23 > 0:47:25Start with Super Bowl winners. Five pointless answers.
0:47:25 > 0:47:28Baltimore Ravens have won the Super Bowl three times...
0:47:31 > 0:47:32..and The Oakland Raiders,
0:47:32 > 0:47:33who've won it twice, as well.
0:47:33 > 0:47:35The only pointless answers there.
0:47:35 > 0:47:37Let's go on to the Bafta award winners.
0:47:37 > 0:47:39Brie Larson won for acting in Room.
0:47:39 > 0:47:41Room also a Pointless answer.
0:47:41 > 0:47:43Ennio Morricone did the music for Hateful Eight -
0:47:43 > 0:47:45Hateful Eight also pointless.
0:47:45 > 0:47:46Mark Rylance in Bridge Of Spies.
0:47:46 > 0:47:47That was also pointless.
0:47:47 > 0:47:49Spotlight.
0:47:49 > 0:47:51You could've had Brooklyn. Inside Out was a pointless answer.
0:47:51 > 0:47:54Mad Max: Fury Road was a pointless answer,
0:47:54 > 0:47:57Steve Jobs and The Big Short, all of those were pointless answers.
0:47:57 > 0:47:58Well done if you said any of them.
0:47:58 > 0:48:01And the Grammy-winning songs and albums.
0:48:01 > 0:48:03Just one big album down the bottom there.
0:48:03 > 0:48:04Born To Play Guitar, Buddy Guy.
0:48:04 > 0:48:06Alabama Shakes, Don't Wanna fight.
0:48:08 > 0:48:09The Kendrick Lemar album
0:48:09 > 0:48:10To Pimp A Butterfly
0:48:10 > 0:48:12was also a pointless answer - terrific album, as well.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14Well done if you got any of those at home.
0:48:14 > 0:48:16Thanks very much indeed.
0:48:16 > 0:48:18And thank you so much, Lee and Michelle,
0:48:18 > 0:48:20fabulous performance across the show.
0:48:20 > 0:48:23- Thank you.- Thank you - thanks for having us.
0:48:23 > 0:48:25Join us next time when we will be putting
0:48:25 > 0:48:27more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:48:27 > 0:48:29- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:48:29 > 0:48:31And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:48:31 > 0:48:33APPLAUSE
