0:00:23 > 0:00:26Thank you very much, indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong.
0:00:26 > 0:00:30A very warm welcome to this special musicals edition of Pointless Celebrities.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32The show where the aim of the game is to score
0:00:32 > 0:00:35as few points as you can and you do that by coming up with the answers
0:00:35 > 0:00:38no-one else can think of. Let's meet today's Pointless celebrities.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44And couple number one.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Don Black, songwriter.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Tim Rice, songwriter.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53- Couple number two. - I'm Phill Jupitus,
0:00:53 > 0:00:56currently appearing in the UK tour of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
0:00:56 > 0:00:57with one of the other contestants.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00I'm Cory English.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03I've been doing Broadway and West End musicals for 25 years now.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Couple number three.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Hello, I'm Nigel Planer and, in fact,
0:01:11 > 0:01:15Sir Tim over there gave me my first job in musicals.
0:01:15 > 0:01:20A long time ago I was the David Essex understudy in the musical Evita.
0:01:21 > 0:01:26I'm Claire Sweeney and I am playing Phill's long-suffering wife
0:01:26 > 0:01:28in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang in the UK.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34And, finally, couple number four.
0:01:34 > 0:01:35My name's Siobhan Dillon.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38I'm currently starring in Sunset Boulevard
0:01:38 > 0:01:41at London Coliseum with the beautiful Glenn Close.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43I'm Connie Fisher.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45I'm best known for playing Maria in The Sound Of Music.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48I present BBC One's Songs Of Praise and work as a TV producer.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Thank you very much, all of you. A very warm welcome to Pointless.
0:01:54 > 0:01:55It's lovely to have you all here.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58We'll get to chat to each of you during the show as it goes along,
0:01:58 > 0:02:01of course. So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04It's not all about me, me, me, it's about him, him, him as well.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10Hiya. Evening, everybody.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Good evening, Xander.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- Good evening.- Now, what a line-up.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17- How lovely.- I know. - This is going to be a joy.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19I wonder... Listen, I love everybody, don't get me wrong,
0:02:19 > 0:02:23but have we ever had a more distinguished podium one than we have this evening?
0:02:23 > 0:02:25- Never.- Goodness me.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29That's classy. Also, their introductions, so classy.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Right. If I was one of the other pairs - and you're all welcome, you know that -
0:02:32 > 0:02:36I would feel very guilty at knocking them out at any point of the show.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38- Yeah.- Would be my opinion.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Also, the two of them probably very able to employ the other six
0:02:41 > 0:02:44- at any time, as well.- Yes.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46- Yes.- And you, as well, to be fair.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48- Don't think that's escaped my notice.- Given I can't sing,
0:02:48 > 0:02:51I'm the only person here who doesn't have to impress you at any time.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53That's the good news.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55- Although, you know, I can... - You certainly can.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Yeah, I've got a mezzo soprano hidden away somewhere.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Yes, I met her.- Yeah.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03I should... Really should let her out.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Again, I don't wish to favour podium one,
0:03:05 > 0:03:07but Round One is the sort of round you should be very good at if you
0:03:07 > 0:03:12are two of the country's greatest ever lyricists, I would say.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18So, as usual, all of today's questions have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Our contestants here are looking for those all-important pointless
0:03:21 > 0:03:23answers. These being answers that none of our 100 people gave.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Find one of those, we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Now, as today's show's a celebrity special and each of our wonderful
0:03:29 > 0:03:32celebrities here is playing for a nominated charity,
0:03:32 > 0:03:35we're going to start off with a jackpot of £2,500. There we are.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47So, all you have to remember is this.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50The pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:03:50 > 0:03:52will be eliminated. That is it.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54No conferring till we get to the head-to-head round.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Our first category today is...
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Words. It's...
0:04:02 > 0:04:03ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:04:03 > 0:04:05..a words round, podium one.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:04:07 > 0:04:08who's going to go second.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:04:17 > 0:04:23We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many words ending
0:04:23 > 0:04:25in O-O-T as they could.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Words ending in O-O-T.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Yeah, were looking for any word which has its own entry
0:04:31 > 0:04:33in the British and world English section of
0:04:33 > 0:04:36the Oxforddictionaries.com, please, that ends O-O-T.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38As always, no proper nouns, no hyphenated words.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41I'm going to predict what you're going to say, but
0:04:41 > 0:04:43it's quite tricky on this one. I've got it wrong three times in a row.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45I know. Normally, your...
0:04:45 > 0:04:47It's almost like we're drifting apart, somehow.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49That's fine. Every relationship goes through its rocky patches.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Yes, it does, it does. Let's see if we can bring it back
0:04:52 > 0:04:54- on course today. - Let's do exactly that.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Come on. Come on, big guy.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Thanks, Rich.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03Tim, welcome back to Pointless.
0:05:03 > 0:05:04It's lovely to have you here, as ever.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08Now, Tim, you are on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10- Yeah.- Now that's... I don't think we've had... We've never had
0:05:10 > 0:05:13anyone on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame on Pointless before.
0:05:13 > 0:05:14- Chico.- We've had Chico.
0:05:16 > 0:05:17Tim, how does that happen?
0:05:17 > 0:05:19How do they tell you about it, to start with?
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Well, you basically pay for it.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25- Really?- I think you have to be nominated.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27I got a letter, and that was great.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Does the letter come in a big gold envelope?
0:05:29 > 0:05:34I can't remember. But it's obviously a very nice thing to have.
0:05:34 > 0:05:38I was last there before I was so honoured to see my heroes
0:05:38 > 0:05:41The Everly Brothers. I went to visit their gold star
0:05:41 > 0:05:45and they were outside a rather dubious shop.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47But actually, it was rather good because as people came out of
0:05:47 > 0:05:49that shop, they were looking down,
0:05:49 > 0:05:53so The Everly Brothers are probably seen more than most people.
0:05:53 > 0:05:54LAUGHTER
0:05:54 > 0:05:57- I bet they are. - But, no, it was great.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59It was a nice thing to have happen.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03Wonderful. Tim, we're looking for any word that ends O-O-T.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Well, I can think of a few risky ones,
0:06:05 > 0:06:08but I'm going to be boring and play safe and go for scoot.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10- Scoot...- Scoot.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14..says Tim. Let's see how many of our 100 people said scoot.
0:06:21 > 0:06:2325 for scoot.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25APPLAUSE
0:06:27 > 0:06:30To leave somewhere quickly. To scoot.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32- I've got one.- Have you got one?
0:06:32 > 0:06:35I've written down what I think you have, but...
0:06:35 > 0:06:37- If you know what I mean.- I do.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Cory, a very warm welcome to you.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42Now, you've been on Broadway, you've been on the West End,
0:06:42 > 0:06:45you have a very, very long experience of both.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47What's the difference between American audiences
0:06:47 > 0:06:52- and British audiences, do you think?- Yeah, good question.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Well, the Broadway audiences do have Times Square
0:06:55 > 0:06:57and that energy of New York City.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59All the shows start at eight o'clock
0:06:59 > 0:07:01and everybody running late to the theatre,
0:07:01 > 0:07:05- and there is that buzz of Broadway, that helps.- Yeah.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07Here, everybody's on time.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11You know, they get to the theatre on time, it's at 7:30, 7:45
0:07:11 > 0:07:14is the start, so it's nice and calm.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17It sometimes just lacks a little bit of the buzz,
0:07:17 > 0:07:21- but once they're in the theatre, it's the same.- There we are.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24Now, Cory, we're looking for any word that ends O-O-T.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27All right. Let's go with...
0:07:27 > 0:07:30- loot.- Ah, loot.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34Also the name of a Tim Rice musical, actually, in a different spelling,
0:07:34 > 0:07:36but there we are. Loot, says Cory.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44AUDIENCE GROAN
0:07:44 > 0:07:47- Whoa! Look at that!- Nelly Furtado!
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Look at that, Cory.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54That really is... That's quite a score, isn't it?
0:07:54 > 0:07:58- Yeah.- Yeah, to loot, to steal, or what you steal is also loot.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Thanks very much, Richard.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04Now then, Nigel, welcome back to Pointless.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- Yes.- Tell me about Doctor Who live. This is extraordinary.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09You've been doing a live show of Doctor Who playing a villain.
0:08:09 > 0:08:15Yes, with the live orchestra on stage, playing Murray Gold's music.
0:08:15 > 0:08:20- Yeah.- Yes, I was the only human being in the show.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24The rest were all what's known as skin workers, people who put on...
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Monster players.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29- Wow!- And they had to be all the different monsters.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33And there was me and, Matt Smith was in it, but he was on a big screen.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34He'd pre-recorded all his scenes...
0:08:34 > 0:08:38- Oh, that's lazy.- ..so I had to time my lines to his pre-record
0:08:38 > 0:08:40and it looked like we were having dialogue.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44- Yeah.- And I caught him in a little booth.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48A sort of hologram booth, and I captured him cos I was a baddie,
0:08:48 > 0:08:52and at the end of the first half I managed to say,
0:08:52 > 0:08:55"Welcome to my experiment, Doctor."
0:08:55 > 0:08:57- Which was great.- Amazing.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Nigel, words ending O-O-T.
0:09:00 > 0:09:05Well, I'm going to take a cos I'm not even sure if it is a word,
0:09:05 > 0:09:08but if it is, I think it won't have been chosen by many people,
0:09:08 > 0:09:11so I may completely blow this. I'm going say moot.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14- M-O-O-T.- Moot? Moot, says Nigel.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Well, let's see. How many of our 100 people said moot?
0:09:19 > 0:09:20It's absolutely right.
0:09:20 > 0:09:2386 our high score and you pass that very comfortably.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Oh. 54 for moot.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27I'm surprised.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Oh, I thought we were going to get a really obscure one there.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34A moot is what surrounds a castle for Geordies.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37LAUGHTER
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Thanks very much, indeed.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Connie, welcome back to Pointless. Great to have you here again.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47- Thank you.- When you did How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria?,
0:09:47 > 0:09:50did they approach you? Did they come to you and say or do they go around
0:09:50 > 0:09:53various drama schools and say, "Would anybody be interested?"
0:09:53 > 0:09:55- Or did you audition? - They didn't, actually.
0:09:55 > 0:09:56I was working in telesales
0:09:56 > 0:10:00and I was auditioning for a lot of Sir Tim Rice's shows at the time.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04I wasn't getting them. So my friend in telesales said,
0:10:04 > 0:10:07"Have you listened to Front Row?" And so I was listening to Front Row
0:10:07 > 0:10:10and I heard Lloyd-Webber say he was looking for a girl.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13But even though I'd got a degree in musical theatre,
0:10:13 > 0:10:16a piece of paper when you're performing isn't very handy, so...
0:10:16 > 0:10:18- No.- But, yeah, I turned up and I won it.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- I couldn't believe it.- Very good. Now then, Connie,
0:10:21 > 0:10:24what would you like to go for? We've had a range of scores.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28Oh, I've got lots of words running through my head.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31They're probably not words.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34I'm going to go - it's probably not a word - cahoot.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37- Ooh.- Yeah, good one.- Very good. - Is it?
0:10:37 > 0:10:38Does it exist in the singular?
0:10:38 > 0:10:41How many of our 100 people said cahoot?
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Oh, no. Oh, no!
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Oh, no, that's so unfair, because you were taking a risk.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52And I might say the first person to have done so.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54- But cahoot, I'm afraid... - Boot would've been 100, so...
0:10:54 > 0:10:57It scores you 100. But, listen, Cory is just literally
0:10:57 > 0:11:01- beside you in the scoring, so don't worry.- Just the plural, I'm afraid.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Cahoots but no cahoot.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05But, as I say, you know what, there's some big scores out there,
0:11:05 > 0:11:08- so you may still go through. - I should think so.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.
0:11:10 > 0:11:1325, Sir Tim. 25, the best score of that pass,
0:11:13 > 0:11:16putting you and Don at the top the table.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Then up to 54, where we find Nigel and Claire,
0:11:18 > 0:11:20then up to 86, where we find Cory and Phill,
0:11:20 > 0:11:22and then up to 100, where we find Connie and Siobhan.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24So, Siobhan, you're not that far ahead,
0:11:24 > 0:11:27but far enough ahead for you to need a low-scoring answer,
0:11:27 > 0:11:30so very good luck with that when we come back down the line,
0:11:30 > 0:11:31which we're just about to do.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Will the second players please step up to the podium?
0:11:36 > 0:11:40OK, Siobhan, so remember, it's words ending O-O-T.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Siobhan, what was your route into musical theatre?
0:11:43 > 0:11:46The reality TV show How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria?
0:11:46 > 0:11:49- I was at fashion college at the time.- You just heard about
0:11:49 > 0:11:52- it and applied?- Heard about it. Friend of mine pulled open
0:11:52 > 0:11:54the Stage newspaper and said, "I'm going to go to this,
0:11:54 > 0:11:56"do you want to come?" And I was like, "Yeah, great,
0:11:56 > 0:11:59"come and see me in London, we'll do it together." And the day before,
0:11:59 > 0:12:02she pulled out, so I went with my housemate, instead.
0:12:02 > 0:12:03Ah, well, that's nice.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06- How is Glenn Close? - Beautiful. She's amazing.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09She's talented and she's humble and she's a team player.
0:12:09 > 0:12:10She's really, really brilliant.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14Wonderful. Now, Siobhan, words ending O-O-T.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16We really need a low scoring one.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18We haven't... Quite often, we get some pointless words in
0:12:18 > 0:12:22- these words rounds.- Pressure. - So, no pressure, then?
0:12:22 > 0:12:24I'm not going to lie, there is a little bit of pressure
0:12:24 > 0:12:27- involved here. Yeah. - I'd like to go with beetroot.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Ah, you see!
0:12:30 > 0:12:33What about that? Music to my ears and my taste buds.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Extremely good for you, the beetroot.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Let's see how many of our 100 people said beetroot.
0:12:37 > 0:12:41No red line for you, as you're the high scorers.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45It's right. Our lowest score is 25.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49I rather fancy this might go below it, and it does.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Six.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54You see, Siobhan. Very well done, indeed.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57106 is your total. I think you might have done enough.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00That's more like it, isn't it? A great answer, yeah, beetroot.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04I'm not a fan of beetroot. You sound like maybe you like it.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07I used to hate... You know how some of the things you come to love more
0:13:07 > 0:13:08and more when you're a bit older?
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Quite often, they're things you hated when you were younger.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13- I hated beetroot. Love them now.- Really?
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- Beetroot, whisky. - Beetroot and whisky.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19- Beetroot, whisky, anchovies.- I know what I'm getting you for Christmas.
0:13:19 > 0:13:20Lovely big beetroot.
0:13:23 > 0:13:24Thank you very much, Richard.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Claire, now, my goodness.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29You, uniquely amongst our eight contestants,
0:13:29 > 0:13:31have acted alongside Patrick Swayze.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Yes. Yeah, God rest his soul.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36- How was that?- Oh, he was gorgeous.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Abso... I couldn't believe every night I was getting paid
0:13:38 > 0:13:39to kiss him.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41LAUGHTER
0:13:41 > 0:13:42It was fabulous.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44And this is the Donmar Guys And Dolls, wasn't it?
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- It was, yeah, which Cory did, as well, didn't you?- It was brilliant.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49I went in just after Cory.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Such a great... And Douglas Hodge was in it, as well.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54- Doug Hodge, yeah. - It was an amazing cast.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Now, you've got a young child.
0:13:56 > 0:13:57- I have, an 18-month-old boy.- Yeah.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01How do you find that works around the sort of eight shows a week?
0:14:01 > 0:14:05He comes everywhere with me and I have a wonderful nanny
0:14:05 > 0:14:08- who looks after him when I'm on stage.- Yeah.- But it's so good
0:14:08 > 0:14:11for him, cos he's surrounded by happy faces, music, dancing.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15- Yeah.- He comes to warm up with me. He's great.- Very good.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17- Now then, Clare, you are on 54. - Oh, my goodness.
0:14:17 > 0:14:22The high scorers behind you are Siobhan and Connie on 106.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23So, 51 or less gets you through.
0:14:25 > 0:14:26See, there's words going through my mind,
0:14:26 > 0:14:29but I'm not sure if they're actually words,
0:14:29 > 0:14:33so go for one of those and get 100, or play safe and...
0:14:35 > 0:14:38I'm going to play safe. I'm sorry, Nigel.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40I'm going to go for foot.
0:14:40 > 0:14:44- Foot. Foot. Foot. There's your red line.- That's fine, isn't it? O-O-T.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48If you can get... I think it is. Let's see how many of our 100 people said foot.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53AUDIENCE GROANS
0:14:53 > 0:14:55- 85.- I'm sorry. - Well, listen...
0:14:55 > 0:14:59it's one better than loot. Takes your total up to 139.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02That was my original choice, so...
0:15:02 > 0:15:05I think this might be the highest scoring words round we've ever had.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09- I believe so.- I think.- Yes, yes. I'm now so pleased with my one.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12- A lot of pressure taken off you now. - Yeah.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Phill, now, you have sort of set up home in musical theatre.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18- What was the first one you did? - I did Hairspray.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21I'm not entirely sure...
0:15:21 > 0:15:25why I was asked. To be honest, there is a lovely man called James Orange
0:15:25 > 0:15:27and a man called David Grindrod, who are casting directors.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30They got me in and said, "We'd like a chat with you about musicals."
0:15:30 > 0:15:33And I'm like, "Why?" And they went, "You know that bit on Buzzcocks
0:15:33 > 0:15:35"where you do the beginning of songs? We can see that you can
0:15:35 > 0:15:38"hold a tune." And I thought, well, the bar's quite low
0:15:38 > 0:15:40in musical theatre if me going...
0:15:40 > 0:15:42"Doof doo doo-doo doof doof"
0:15:42 > 0:15:45..ends up with me dressed as a woman in the West End for money,
0:15:45 > 0:15:49which is probably where my career was going to end, anyway, so!
0:15:49 > 0:15:52And then you went from that. You've been in Spamalot,
0:15:52 > 0:15:55- you've been in The Producers.- Yeah. - You're in Chitty Bang Bang.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Yes, yes, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, with Claire.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01And if you think that she's delighted she was paid
0:16:01 > 0:16:02to kiss Swayze...
0:16:02 > 0:16:04LAUGHTER
0:16:04 > 0:16:06..now is when she morally pays back.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Kissing me for less money.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13- Now, you're on 86, Phill.- Yes.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15The highest scorers are in front of you,
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Claire and Nigel on 139.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19So 52 or less brings you home.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23- Yeah.- Come on, Phill. Come on, Phill!
0:16:23 > 0:16:27- Loot. What were you thinking? - Carry me!
0:16:27 > 0:16:28- Carry me.- Good lord.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30I'm going to go with cheroot.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34- ALL:- Ooh! - Very good, very good.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Cheroot, says Phill.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40Now, here is your red line, just over halfway up the column.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43Cheroot. Let's see how many of our 100 people went for that.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50It's right. And surely...
0:16:50 > 0:16:52And it does get you through.
0:16:53 > 0:16:54Nine.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00Nine. I mean, it's no beetroot, but still, it's good enough.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Takes your total up to 95.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06Well played, Phill. Yes, a cigar with both ends open.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08I saw Phill in Hairspray. He was brilliant.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12- And Don.- Yes.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15Don, what a great pleasure to have you here.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Think of all the collaborations you've had.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20I mean, you have worked with incredible composers,
0:17:20 > 0:17:22you've worked with amazing singers.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, you've worked with.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28I mean, extraordinary, extraordinary range of people.
0:17:28 > 0:17:33When you're writing songs, do you have a notebook on you at all times,
0:17:33 > 0:17:34and a pencil?
0:17:34 > 0:17:38More or less. Yeah, it's always good to write.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41If anyone says anything... If I was in a restaurant,
0:17:41 > 0:17:44and I heard at the next table somebody said,
0:17:44 > 0:17:47"You've lost that loving feeling," I'd write it down right away.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Someone has done that already.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53- It wasn't you, was it?- No, no. - Oh, phew.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Wouldn't that be awkward?
0:17:55 > 0:17:58Well, Don, listen, the great news is you're through to the next round.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00It doesn't matter what you say, but I'm pretty sure
0:18:00 > 0:18:01you'll have a brilliant answer.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05I've always been a great lover of Western movies.
0:18:05 > 0:18:06Cowboys and Indians.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09And the word tenderfoot comes up a lot.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Tender... Now that, that's either going to hit one or the other end
0:18:13 > 0:18:16- of the column... - That's right, exactly.- ..I reckon.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Tenderfoot. There's no red line for you, Don,
0:18:18 > 0:18:20for the lovely reason that you're already through,
0:18:20 > 0:18:24but let's see how many of our 100 said tenderfoot.
0:18:24 > 0:18:25It is right.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28I think we might be hearing the ding of a pointless here.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Look at that! CHEERING
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Very well done, indeed, Don. Beautifully done.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39That's a pointless answer and adds £250 to today's jackpot, takes
0:18:39 > 0:18:40the total up to £2,750.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43It scores you nothing. It leaves your total at 25,
0:18:43 > 0:18:46which is by a margin the lowest score of the whole round.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49That's a terrific answer, Don. Very well played.
0:18:49 > 0:18:50Yeah, it means a newcomer, or novice.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52As you say, often used in those old westerns
0:18:52 > 0:18:54and in the old western books, as well.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Lots and lots of pointless answers.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58- ALEXANDER COUGHS - I haven't forgotten you.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01- OK, OK.- He's very needy sometimes.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03LAUGHTER
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Go on, then. No, go on.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- Arrowroot.- You know what, that was my second choice for you.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10- I'm annoyed, now.- Was it? - Yeah.- Oh, no.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12I went for... I thought you would say bandicoot.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Oh, no, I did think bandicoot, as well.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18I'm so annoyed. Arrowroot would've scored two.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21- What was bandicoot?- Bandicoot was three. So you did better than me.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23- Oh, phew. OK. There we are. - So that's good.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25There's lots of good pointless answers though.
0:19:25 > 0:19:26Let's take a look at some of them.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30A coralroot is an orchid. Crapshoot is a pointless answer.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Flatfoot, also a pointless answer,
0:19:32 > 0:19:34often used as a name for a police officer.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38Outroot. Overboot, something you put over your boot.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42Pussyfoot. See, when you hear them, they're kind of obvious.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44To troubleshoot. Underfoot.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Unroot. You could have had pinkfoot, you could have had outshoot,
0:19:47 > 0:19:49goosefoot, forefoot. You could've had jackboot.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52There's all sorts of good pointless answers up there.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Let's take a look at the top three scorers.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Normally, this is, "Let's have a laugh at the biggest scorers,"
0:19:56 > 0:19:58but some of these will be familiar.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01LAUGHTER
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Foot would've scored you 85.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Look at that, Cory, loot with 86.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09And boot, which would have scored you 90.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11There we are, thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14So, and the end of our first round, I'm so sorry.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Claire and Nigel, two returners we have to send away,
0:20:16 > 0:20:18with a high score of 139.
0:20:18 > 0:20:19It's been lovely having you here.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Thank you so much for coming to play. Far too soon to be
0:20:21 > 0:20:25sending you away, but thank you, Claire and Nigel.
0:20:25 > 0:20:26APPLAUSE
0:20:27 > 0:20:31But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:20:35 > 0:20:36And so three pairs remain.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40At the end of this round, we will have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:20:40 > 0:20:41Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45Our category for Round Two this evening is...
0:20:47 > 0:20:50- Yes!- Pop Music, something many of you are familiar with.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:20:52 > 0:20:54who's going to go second. And whoever's going first,
0:20:54 > 0:20:56please step up to the podium.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00OK. And the question concerns...
0:21:04 > 0:21:05Young chart stars, Richard.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08On each board, we're going to show you the names of six UK
0:21:08 > 0:21:11top 40 singles, all of which became hits when the act who released them
0:21:11 > 0:21:14was under 20 years old. Just need to name those acts, please.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Six on the first board, six on the second,
0:21:16 > 0:21:1912 in all to have a go at home. Very best of luck.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21OK, so we're looking for the name of the artists who had hits
0:21:21 > 0:21:24with these songs.
0:21:24 > 0:21:25Here's our first board.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27We have...
0:21:42 > 0:21:43I shall read those all again.
0:21:57 > 0:21:58Tim.
0:21:58 > 0:22:02Xander, I know...
0:22:02 > 0:22:05I think I know four of them.
0:22:05 > 0:22:10And, being an old codger, I'm going back into the past.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12I'll go for Musical Youth, Pass The Dutchie.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Musical Youth, says Tim.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Musical Youth.
0:22:24 > 0:22:25Not bad. 34 for Musical Youth.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27APPLAUSE
0:22:29 > 0:22:32That is a solid start. Yeah, sold over four million
0:22:32 > 0:22:34copies worldwide, Pass The Dutchie.
0:22:35 > 0:22:36Not bad at all.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38Now then, Cory.
0:22:38 > 0:22:39Doomed.
0:22:42 > 0:22:43Puppy Love.
0:22:43 > 0:22:44Oh, gosh.
0:22:47 > 0:22:48Stitches.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Well, I've just got to make...
0:22:52 > 0:22:54an uneducated guess.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58- Yes.- And say Depeche Mode, Uptight.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01- Argh!- We got it. This is it. No, no, no, think positive, Phill.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04OK.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06S...
0:23:06 > 0:23:07They weren't even born in '66!
0:23:08 > 0:23:10- Oh, God! - LAUGHTER
0:23:12 > 0:23:14SW.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Depeche Mode, says Cory. LAUGHTER
0:23:17 > 0:23:19Let's see how many of our 100 people...
0:23:21 > 0:23:23..said that.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26Let it be there, let it be there.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30There we are. I'm afraid...
0:23:30 > 0:23:31APPLAUSE
0:23:31 > 0:23:34I'm sorry, Corey. An incorrect answer, as it turns out.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36Scores you 100 points.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Yeah, although they were originally called Sepeche Wode.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41- LAUGHTER - So it's not a bad answer.- Yeah.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43Thank you very much indeed.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45Now, Siobhan, this board's all yours.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48Would you like to go through it and fill in all our blanks for us?
0:23:48 > 0:23:50I'm really struggling, I'm not going to lie.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Do you want to go through them and do some thinking aloud?
0:23:52 > 0:23:55No, absolutely not. That would just be embarrassing.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59Let's just put it out there. Puppy Love, Donny Osmond?
0:23:59 > 0:24:01- Yeah, yeah.- Donny Osmond. CHEERING
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Is that the answer you want to go for?
0:24:03 > 0:24:05- That's the answer. - "Of course," says Cory!
0:24:05 > 0:24:08Sepeche Wode.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Donny Osmond
0:24:11 > 0:24:14for Puppy Love. Let's see how many people.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16- Well, 100 was our high score and you've passed that.- Yay!
0:24:16 > 0:24:1871 is where you end up with Donny Osmond.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24- Not bad.- Yeah, a cover of a Paul Anka song, that was.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27Now, let's fill these in, shall we?
0:24:27 > 0:24:29All Kinds Of Everything, D.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32- Dana.- Dana, yeah. Absolutely. That would have scored 38.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35Now, No No No. It's Destiny's Child.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38- CONNIE:- We should have gone for that!- Stitches, which is
0:24:38 > 0:24:40the most recent one on the board, is Shawn Mendes,
0:24:40 > 0:24:43who came to fame on Vine and now sells millions of records.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45Would have scored you six points.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48- And Uptight (Everything's Alright). - Stevie Wonder.- Stevie Wonder,
0:24:48 > 0:24:49of course it is. 21 points for that.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52So Destiny's Child the best answer on the board.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54- Well done if you said that. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57Well, let's see where we find ourselves halfway through the round.
0:24:57 > 0:24:5934, the best score, Tim and Don.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02Once again looking very strong at this stage for the head-to-head.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04Then up to 71, quite a leap up there,
0:25:04 > 0:25:05where we find Siobhan and Connie.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08And then it's up to 100, Cory and Phill.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10However, if one was thinking of there's a sort of handicap race,
0:25:10 > 0:25:13I would say that that's probably about right,
0:25:13 > 0:25:15cos, Phill, got a bit of a mountain to climb,
0:25:15 > 0:25:17but you knew all of that. He's going to be fine.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19You're going to be fine. Best of luck with that.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21We're going to come back down the line now.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25Can the second players please step up to the podium.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28OK, we're going to put six more clues up on the board,
0:25:28 > 0:25:30six more songs, and here they are.
0:25:32 > 0:25:33We've got...
0:25:52 > 0:25:54I'll say all those again.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16Now then, Connie, if you could possibly score 28
0:26:16 > 0:26:20- or less, you'd be definitely... - We won't.- ..in the next round.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Clearly, I'm not going to go for the third one,
0:26:22 > 0:26:25because everyone's going to get that.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26HS. Who could it be?
0:26:26 > 0:26:28Oh, hang on, HS!
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Don't laugh. It's not Harry Secombe, is it?
0:26:33 > 0:26:35LAUGHTER
0:26:35 > 0:26:38- Would it be Harry Secombe? - OK, Harry Secombe.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41Let's see how many of our 100 people said Harry Secombe.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44- There's your red line. - There it is, there it is.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52- Just leave us waiting.- Oh!
0:26:52 > 0:26:55Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, not Harry...
0:26:55 > 0:26:57- Was it Harry Styles? - Not Harry Secombe!
0:26:57 > 0:26:58LAUGHTER
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 171.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03- You're still in the game. - Absolutely. You know what,
0:27:03 > 0:27:05not a terrible answer. You got the initials right.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07At least you didn't say Depeche Mode.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12- There we are.- That's right! - Thank you very much. Phill.- Hello.
0:27:12 > 0:27:16Now, listen, if you could score 70 or less, you're in the head-to-head.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19OK. All right, all right!
0:27:20 > 0:27:24Well, I want to go out burning,
0:27:24 > 0:27:27I want to go flaming into the ground.
0:27:27 > 0:27:28Let's do it.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31Don't Treat Me Like A Child, Helen Shapiro.
0:27:31 > 0:27:32Helen Shapiro.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34AUDIENCE OOHS Oh, listen to that.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37Appreciative buzz from our audience there.
0:27:37 > 0:27:38Here is your red line. Nice and high.
0:27:38 > 0:27:41Get below that with Helen Shapiro, you're into the head-to-head.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44- How many people said Helen Shapiro? - Come on, Phill Jupitus.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46It is Helen Shapiro.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48You are in the head-to-head.
0:27:50 > 0:27:51Good.
0:27:52 > 0:27:5318.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57- 118 is your total. - I should not be here!
0:27:57 > 0:28:0018, incidentally, the lowest score of the round so far.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02She was 14 years old when she released that song,
0:28:02 > 0:28:05and then moved to Basildon in the '80s and formed a synthesiser group
0:28:05 > 0:28:08called Depeche Mode. That was her band.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13- Thank you very much indeed. Now, Don.- Yes.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16I've great news. You're through, it doesn't matter what you score.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19- Right.- What are you going to go for on this board?
0:28:19 > 0:28:22- I'll talk you through the first one. - Yes.- Because I know that.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24And I'll go for Lena Zavaroni.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Lena Zavaroni, says Don.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28No red line for you, you're already through.
0:28:28 > 0:28:31Let's see how many people said Lena Zavaroni.
0:28:33 > 0:28:34It's right.
0:28:39 > 0:28:4129 for Lena Zavaroni,
0:28:41 > 0:28:44taking your total up to 63, the lowest total by some distance
0:28:44 > 0:28:47- of the round.- Well played, Don, yeah, found fame
0:28:47 > 0:28:49on Opportunity Knocks, Lena Zavaroni.
0:28:49 > 0:28:51Now, this next one, do you remember this next one down?
0:28:51 > 0:28:54- One of those many novelty singles. - Do you know, I don't.
0:28:54 > 0:28:56It was by Claire And Friends.
0:28:56 > 0:28:58Three points for that. Later covered by Metallica.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01- LAUGHTER - Now, Rockin' Robin.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03- Connie. - I think it's Michael Jackson.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06Michael Jackson. Absolutely right.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08Big score, though. It would still have seen you knocked out.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11- Yeah.- Would have scored you 58. I Think We're Alone Now.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13Tiffany. That's a good song.
0:29:13 > 0:29:1730 points for that. Now, Whip My Hair, Will Smith's daughter, Willow.
0:29:17 > 0:29:18That would have scored 14.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21Thanks very much, Richard. So, at the end of our second round,
0:29:21 > 0:29:23I'm sorry, the pair we have to say goodbye to,
0:29:23 > 0:29:26heading home with their high score of 171, Connie and Siobhan.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29- It is you. It's been lovely having you here, though.- Thank you.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32- Please come and play again. Connie and Siobhan.- Thank you!
0:29:35 > 0:29:38But for Cory and Phill, Don and Tim, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:29:43 > 0:29:45Well, congratulations, Don and Tim, Corey and Phill.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48You're now one step closer to the final and a chance to play for our
0:29:48 > 0:29:50jackpot, which currently stands at...
0:29:55 > 0:29:57So here we are. We've reached the head-to-head stage.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00This means we have to decide who goes through to the final to play
0:30:00 > 0:30:02for that jackpot and we do it by making you go head-to-head,
0:30:02 > 0:30:05but you can start playing as a team, which is great.
0:30:05 > 0:30:06You can chat before you give your answers.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10First pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:30:10 > 0:30:11This is very exciting.
0:30:11 > 0:30:15So we have here two of the finest lyricists of all time
0:30:15 > 0:30:18versus two of the finest musical and comedy talents
0:30:18 > 0:30:21of the West End and Broadway.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23Fight! Let's play the head-to-head.
0:30:29 > 0:30:31Here is your first question and it concerns...
0:30:36 > 0:30:39Winners Of The Best Actor Olivier Award. Richard.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41We're going to show you five pictures now of people who have won
0:30:41 > 0:30:44the Best Actor or Best Actor In A Musical at the Olivier Awards.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47Can you identify the most obscure of these, please.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50OK, let's reveal our five actors, and here they come.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22There we are. Five Best Actors.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25Don and Tim, you're our low scorers, so you'll go first.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28Right. Yes...
0:31:28 > 0:31:30Well, we think we know three of them,
0:31:30 > 0:31:32which is not very good, really.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34We're going to go for A, is that right?
0:31:34 > 0:31:36We're going to go for A, and that is Robert Lindsay.
0:31:36 > 0:31:39Robert Lindsay say Don and Tim. Robert Lindsay.
0:31:39 > 0:31:44Now then, Corey and Phill, talk us through that board.
0:31:44 > 0:31:46Yeah, I know them all.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49So it's Bob Lindsay, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Spacey,
0:31:49 > 0:31:51Cumberbatch and Jacobi.
0:31:51 > 0:31:53I thought D, maybe.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56- No, they know? - Everyone knows Cumberbatch.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58I don't think that they'd know Jacobi.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01- Yeah. All right. - I'll go with Jacobi, E.
0:32:01 > 0:32:02- Derek Jacobi.- Derek Jacobi.
0:32:02 > 0:32:05There we are. So we have Derek Jacobi and Robert Lindsay.
0:32:05 > 0:32:07Don and Tim said Robert Lindsey for A
0:32:07 > 0:32:10Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people
0:32:10 > 0:32:11said Robert Lindsay.
0:32:13 > 0:32:14It's right.
0:32:18 > 0:32:20Oh, it's a good answer. 26.
0:32:23 > 0:32:2526 for Robert Lindsay.
0:32:25 > 0:32:30Now, meanwhile, Cory and Phill have said Derek Jacobi for E.
0:32:30 > 0:32:33Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said Derek Jacobi.
0:32:35 > 0:32:36It's right.
0:32:39 > 0:32:40It's...
0:32:40 > 0:32:41very good.
0:32:41 > 0:32:45Look at that, 19 for Derek Jacobi. Very well done, indeed.
0:32:45 > 0:32:48Very well done. It means Corey and Phill, after one question,
0:32:48 > 0:32:51- you are up 1-0.- Yeah, well played. Funnily enough, Benedict Cumberbatch
0:32:51 > 0:32:54also would have won the point, cos he would have scored you 25.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57Would have been more exciting telly if you had said Cumberbatch.
0:32:57 > 0:33:00Best answer on the board, though, is B, by a long way.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03Chiwetel Ejiofor. He would have scored you six points.
0:33:03 > 0:33:05Well done if you said that at home.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08And the biggest score on the board, Kevin Spacey.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10- Who?- With 52.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Thank you very much. Here is your second question.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Now, Don and Tim, Corey and Phill will get to answer this first, but
0:33:15 > 0:33:18you have to win it to stay in the game, so very, very best of luck.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21It concerns, this second question of ours...
0:33:23 > 0:33:26- Cameron Mackintosh Productions. Richard.- The answer to every
0:33:26 > 0:33:29clue here is the name of a show produced or associated
0:33:29 > 0:33:32with Cameron Mackintosh. Very best of luck.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Now, rather than me reading out the clues here,
0:33:35 > 0:33:38we've got someone else. We have Sir Cameron Mackintosh himself.
0:33:38 > 0:33:41Hi, Xander and Richard, I'm really sorry I can't be with you
0:33:41 > 0:33:44and I've had to sit in my little hovel of an office here,
0:33:44 > 0:33:47but I've got five questions about my musicals I'd like to give you.
0:33:47 > 0:33:52What was the name of the musical that I produced in 2001,
0:33:52 > 0:33:54based on the story of Pygmalion?
0:33:56 > 0:34:00What is the name of the musical that I co-created in 2004 that was based
0:34:00 > 0:34:04on the books of PL Travers and a famous Disney film?
0:34:06 > 0:34:10What was the name of the TV show that I was in where,
0:34:10 > 0:34:13for my production of Oliver, starring Rowan Atkinson,
0:34:13 > 0:34:17the viewers had to choose who was going to play Nancy?
0:34:17 > 0:34:22Which musical of mine contains the songs Movie In My Mind
0:34:22 > 0:34:23and The American Dream?
0:34:25 > 0:34:29Which musical of mine is based on TS Eliot's poems?
0:34:29 > 0:34:32With a little bit of luck, you'll get all the questions right.
0:34:32 > 0:34:33Good luck, everybody.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42OK, let me read through those questions one more time.
0:35:03 > 0:35:04There we are.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06Now then, Cory and Phill will go first.
0:35:07 > 0:35:09This is you. It's yours.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12Come on. Come on, Stateside.
0:35:12 > 0:35:16Well, the most obscure, we've got...
0:35:16 > 0:35:18The second thing.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20- Yes.- 101 Dalmatians.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22101 Dalmatians.
0:35:22 > 0:35:25OK. Now then, Don and Tim.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28That board is all yours. Talk us through.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30We know four for sure, I think.
0:35:30 > 0:35:33But the one that we think will get us the least points...
0:35:33 > 0:35:35Just get it right, Don.
0:35:35 > 0:35:38The Movie In My Mind and the American Dream
0:35:38 > 0:35:40comes from Miss Saigon.
0:35:40 > 0:35:43Miss Saigon. So we have 101 Dalmatians versus Miss Saigon.
0:35:43 > 0:35:45In the order they were given,
0:35:45 > 0:35:48Corey and Phill said 101 Dalmatians for the PL Travers book.
0:35:48 > 0:35:49Let's see if that's right.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54Oh, they're getting the eggs ready.
0:35:54 > 0:35:56No, I'm afraid.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58Not 101 Dalmatians,
0:35:58 > 0:35:59which means, Don and Tim,
0:35:59 > 0:36:02you merely have to be correct with your answer of Miss Saigon...
0:36:02 > 0:36:04We know it as well!
0:36:04 > 0:36:06..and you'll be back in the game.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08Let's see if it's right.
0:36:11 > 0:36:12Look at that. Very well done.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18Good answer.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20Look, right down to four.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22Best answer on the board, I would imagine there.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25And it means, Don and Tim, you're back in the game.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28- After two questions it is 1-1. - We had to give them a chance!
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Not just a good answer, the best answer on the board,
0:36:30 > 0:36:33so very well played. Now it's not 101 Dalmatians, I'm afraid.
0:36:33 > 0:36:34That's written by Dodie Smith.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36PL Travers wrote...
0:36:36 > 0:36:38- Mary Poppins.- Mary Poppins.
0:36:38 > 0:36:39It would have scored you 21 points.
0:36:39 > 0:36:41The top one, the musical based on Pygmalion.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43- My Fair Lady.- My Fair Lady.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45Would have scored 30.
0:36:45 > 0:36:46The title of the TV show?
0:36:46 > 0:36:48I'd Do Anything.
0:36:48 > 0:36:49Yeah. Six points for that.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51And this musical is based on a collection of poems.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54- It's Cats.- It's Cats. And that would have scored you 41.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56There we are. Thank you very much indeed.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58OK, here comes your third question. This is the decider.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Whoever wins this one goes through to the final
0:37:00 > 0:37:03and plays for that jackpot. Best of luck to both pairs.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Our third question concerns...
0:37:08 > 0:37:10Types Of Bean!
0:37:10 > 0:37:13- Types Of Bean.- What better way to divide you than this?
0:37:13 > 0:37:17We are now going to show you the names of five types of bean,
0:37:17 > 0:37:19but in the form of anagrams.
0:37:19 > 0:37:20Can you unscramble them?
0:37:20 > 0:37:22And the team giving us the lowest score
0:37:22 > 0:37:25is going through to play for that jackpot. Very best of luck.
0:37:25 > 0:37:27Here we go. Let's reveal our five beans.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29And here they come.
0:37:41 > 0:37:44So, Don and Tim, you will go first.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47I feel like a has-been.
0:37:49 > 0:37:50Very good.
0:37:54 > 0:37:55That's all you need.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00We're going to have a go at the fourth one down.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02Which is haricot.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05Haricot, haricot say Don and Tim.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08Now then, Corey and Phill.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10The only one that I can solve the anagram of
0:38:10 > 0:38:14is the one that will be the highest answer and haricot will
0:38:14 > 0:38:17knock it right out of the park. So, start the van, Barry.
0:38:18 > 0:38:20Uh...
0:38:21 > 0:38:22Um...
0:38:23 > 0:38:26Oh, come on. Runner.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28- One.- Runner.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30OK, so we have haricot and we have runner.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32We have Don and Tim going for haricot.
0:38:32 > 0:38:33Let's see if that's right,
0:38:33 > 0:38:35let's see how many of our 100 people got haricot.
0:38:38 > 0:38:39It's right.
0:38:43 > 0:38:4528 for haricot.
0:38:49 > 0:38:53- Now...- Mid '80s.- Mid-80s, says Phil. - Yeah, yeah.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55Yeah, we're back to Depeche Mode again, are we?
0:38:57 > 0:38:59Corey and Phill went for runner. Let's see if it's right,
0:38:59 > 0:39:01let's see how many of our 100 people said runner.
0:39:05 > 0:39:07Oh. 74, 74.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09Sorry, Cory and Phill.
0:39:10 > 0:39:13- Very well done.- I feel sorry for the runner bean, falling out of favour.
0:39:13 > 0:39:14Don and Tim, very well done.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17After three questions you're through to the final, 2-1.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20Yes, a couple of answers that would have beaten your score there.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23Not the bottom one. The bottom one would have scored too much.
0:39:23 > 0:39:24- That's...- Broad.- Broad bean.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28That would have scored 47. Chip cake. Do you know that one?
0:39:28 > 0:39:30We don't think of it as a bean.
0:39:30 > 0:39:32Chickpea. That would have scored 13.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34Now, this is the hard one. A solo papa.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37You'd have to have heard of this, I suspect.
0:39:37 > 0:39:38It's an appaloosa.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41Appaloosa. Would've scored you two points.
0:39:41 > 0:39:42Lovely word to use in a song, though.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45Appaloosa. Isn't it? Tuck that away.
0:39:45 > 0:39:46Don't Cry For Me, Appaloosa.
0:39:49 > 0:39:50Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round, I'm afraid, is Cory and Phill.
0:39:54 > 0:39:56- Oh.- Come on, they're the better team.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58They should be here. Come on.
0:39:58 > 0:40:01- Yeah, yeah.- Hey, no-one's denying that, Cory.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05Although... Although, if Cameron is watching, I think
0:40:05 > 0:40:10101 dogs loose on a stage in the West End is an excellent idea.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13Cory and Phill, it's been fabulous having you here.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16Thank you so much for playing and playing so well. Cory and Phill, everyone.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18APPLAUSE
0:40:20 > 0:40:22But, for Don and Tim, it is now time for our Pointless final.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29Congratulations, Don and Tim,
0:40:29 > 0:40:31you have seen off all the competition
0:40:31 > 0:40:34and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42Can we now be known as... What was it, Don, you said?
0:40:42 > 0:40:44Tenderfoot and Haricot.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46Tenderfoot and Haricot.
0:40:47 > 0:40:49Congratulations, Tenderfoot and Haricot.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51You can be called anything you like, frankly,
0:40:51 > 0:40:53now you've made it this far. You now have a chance to win
0:40:53 > 0:40:56our Pointless jackpot, and at the end of today's show,
0:40:56 > 0:40:57the jackpot is standing at £2,750.
0:40:57 > 0:40:58APPLAUSE
0:41:00 > 0:41:01Very, very well done.
0:41:01 > 0:41:06Now, you started off, in the first round, with a pointless answer.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08All you have to do now is round it off, bookend it with another
0:41:08 > 0:41:10pointless answer at this end of the show and you will
0:41:10 > 0:41:12take home that jackpot for your charities.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15As you know what happens, we put four categories up on the board
0:41:15 > 0:41:17behind me and you've just got to hope there is something up there
0:41:17 > 0:41:19you quite like the look of. Very, very best of luck.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22Today's selection looks like this.
0:41:30 > 0:41:33I'm not bad at Geography, but the other two, Fashion, hard to believe.
0:41:33 > 0:41:36Just look at us, I mean, pretty obvious.
0:41:36 > 0:41:38We are fashion icons, but that worries us.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40I think Music By Numbers.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Between us we might be lucky.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44OK. Music By Numbers.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47OK. Haricot says Music By Numbers.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Very best of luck. Here are your three questions.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51I hope one of these suits you.
0:41:51 > 0:41:55We are looking for the name of any track on Adele's album 25.
0:41:55 > 0:41:58So any track on the original release of that.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01We're looking for any track on George Michael's greatest hits album
0:42:01 > 0:42:04Twenty Five, released in 2006,
0:42:04 > 0:42:07or any tracks on A-ha's greatest hits album,
0:42:07 > 0:42:0825: The Very Best Of A-ha,
0:42:08 > 0:42:10released in 2010.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13So tracks on any of these 25s.
0:42:13 > 0:42:16Adele, George Michael, or the very best of A-ha.
0:42:16 > 0:42:17Very, very best of luck.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20OK, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with
0:42:20 > 0:42:23three answers and all you need to win that jackpot for your charities
0:42:23 > 0:42:25is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27- Are you ready?- Well...- We are ready.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31There they are. Your time starts now.
0:42:31 > 0:42:33I don't think people will know that.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35- No, I don't think that... - Living Daylights?
0:42:36 > 0:42:39Crying In The Rain, but they'll forget that one.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41- Which one?- On A-ha.
0:42:41 > 0:42:44- OK.- And the only track I can remember on Adele's album is Hello.
0:42:44 > 0:42:45And everyone will know that.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47- OK.- George Michael.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49Is that a greatest hits album or...
0:42:51 > 0:42:53- Yeah, greatest hits album. - Greatest hits album.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55What was a small greatest hit he had?
0:42:55 > 0:42:57One that people won't know?
0:42:57 > 0:42:59I only know his big hits.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01But I think you're right, the A-ha, I think A-ha is good,
0:43:01 > 0:43:05because not many people know too much about A-ha.
0:43:06 > 0:43:07Um... Well, I think... I would like,
0:43:07 > 0:43:09- definitely, to go for Crying In The Rain.- OK.
0:43:09 > 0:43:12- Last two.- We've got to think of two others.
0:43:12 > 0:43:13Panic. George Michael.
0:43:13 > 0:43:16What's he done? Things like Faith and...
0:43:16 > 0:43:17Yes.
0:43:18 > 0:43:21Father. What was that...? Father Figure.
0:43:21 > 0:43:22That'll be...
0:43:22 > 0:43:24It's hard to think of titles.
0:43:24 > 0:43:25We're struggling here.
0:43:25 > 0:43:28We're struggling. And Adele's...
0:43:30 > 0:43:32- Pavements?- OK.
0:43:32 > 0:43:33That is your time up.
0:43:33 > 0:43:35Let's have your three answers.
0:43:35 > 0:43:39- Well we're definitely going for Crying In The Rain by A-ha. - OK, Crying In The Rain.
0:43:39 > 0:43:41And a George Michael track.
0:43:41 > 0:43:43- Yes. A duet. - Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me.
0:43:43 > 0:43:45Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me.
0:43:45 > 0:43:47By George Michael. What was the other A-ha one you thought of?
0:43:47 > 0:43:50The Living Daylights, the James Bond.
0:43:50 > 0:43:51- And Living Daylights.- Yeah.
0:43:51 > 0:43:54OK, those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:43:54 > 0:43:57- I think the Crying In The Rain. - I think Crying In The Rain, too.
0:43:57 > 0:43:59Let's put that last. Least likely to be pointless?
0:43:59 > 0:44:02- The other one. What was the other one? I forgot.- The other one was...
0:44:02 > 0:44:04- Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me. - Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me.
0:44:04 > 0:44:06OK. And Living Daylights in the middle.
0:44:06 > 0:44:09OK, well, let's put those answers up on the board in that order,
0:44:09 > 0:44:11and here they are. We have got...
0:44:16 > 0:44:18Well, very, very best of luck. Three good answers there.
0:44:18 > 0:44:20Let's hope one of those, at least, is pointless
0:44:20 > 0:44:22and will win that jackpot for your charities.
0:44:22 > 0:44:24What charities are you playing for, Don, you first.
0:44:24 > 0:44:27Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital.
0:44:27 > 0:44:28Excellent. Tim?
0:44:28 > 0:44:32Chance To Shine, which is a charity that, through cricket,
0:44:32 > 0:44:37enables people from state schools to get out and play more sport.
0:44:37 > 0:44:39Very good indeed. Two wonderful charities there.
0:44:39 > 0:44:40APPLAUSE
0:44:42 > 0:44:45Fingers crossed one of these answers will win that jackpot for you to
0:44:45 > 0:44:48split between those charities. Well, best of luck. As I say,
0:44:48 > 0:44:50your first answer was Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me.
0:44:50 > 0:44:52In this case we were looking for tracks from
0:44:52 > 0:44:55George Michael's best-of album called Twenty Five.
0:44:55 > 0:44:59It has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot, so let's find out,
0:44:59 > 0:45:02for £2,750, how many people said Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me?
0:45:05 > 0:45:06It's right.
0:45:06 > 0:45:08It now just has to go down to zero
0:45:08 > 0:45:11and you will leave with that jackpot to split between your charities.
0:45:11 > 0:45:14Down we go. Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me, into the teens,
0:45:14 > 0:45:15into single figures. Down it goes.
0:45:15 > 0:45:17Still going down...
0:45:17 > 0:45:19Oh, two! We stop at two.
0:45:19 > 0:45:21That's not bad.
0:45:21 > 0:45:22That's really not bad.
0:45:24 > 0:45:25- OK.- Not bad at all.
0:45:25 > 0:45:27Very, very well done.
0:45:27 > 0:45:30Sadly, not a pointless answer, which means we move on to your answer,
0:45:30 > 0:45:32which is The Living Daylights.
0:45:32 > 0:45:35In this case, we were looking for A-ha tracks from
0:45:35 > 0:45:3725: The Very Best Of A-ha.
0:45:37 > 0:45:39It has to be pointless, so, for £2,750,
0:45:39 > 0:45:42let's see how many people said The Living Daylights.
0:45:45 > 0:45:47Again, it's right.
0:45:47 > 0:45:49Just has to go down to zero.
0:45:49 > 0:45:51Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me stopped at two.
0:45:51 > 0:45:53The Living Daylights now going down through the teens.
0:45:53 > 0:45:55We are into single figures again. Down it...
0:45:55 > 0:45:58Six. For The Living Daylights.
0:45:59 > 0:46:03Close. This is the big one for you.
0:46:03 > 0:46:05OK. Two very good low scores, by the way.
0:46:05 > 0:46:08However, it's only pointless answers that count in this last round.
0:46:08 > 0:46:09Your third and final answer.
0:46:09 > 0:46:11Crying In The Rain, the one that you thought was
0:46:11 > 0:46:13probably your best shot at a pointless answer.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15Again, it's an A-ha song.
0:46:15 > 0:46:18We are hoping it's on that album, 25: The Best Of A-ha.
0:46:18 > 0:46:21If it is, and if it is pointless, it will win £2,750 for your charities.
0:46:21 > 0:46:24Let's find out. Crying In The Rain. How many people said it?
0:46:28 > 0:46:30It's right. OK, well, your first answer,
0:46:30 > 0:46:33Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me, took us down to two.
0:46:33 > 0:46:36The Living Daylights, your next answer, took us down to six.
0:46:36 > 0:46:38Crying In The Rain now takes us into single figures.
0:46:38 > 0:46:41Down it goes, past the six, down it goes, passes two.
0:46:41 > 0:46:43Very well done indeed!
0:46:43 > 0:46:45APPLAUSE
0:46:47 > 0:46:50Congratulations. Very well done indeed.
0:46:52 > 0:46:56Fantastic. Crying In The Rain was a pointless answer,
0:46:56 > 0:46:58which means you go home with that jackpot
0:46:58 > 0:47:00of £2,750 for your charities. Brilliant.
0:47:00 > 0:47:03- APPLAUSE - Thank you.
0:47:06 > 0:47:09Brilliant work and, like the showmen you are, you left the pointless answer to the last.
0:47:09 > 0:47:13Terrific stuff. Genuinely been our pleasure and our honour to have two such wonderful talents on the show.
0:47:13 > 0:47:16So thank you very much. I'm so glad we are sending you home with that money.
0:47:16 > 0:47:19Let's take a look at the pointless answers now
0:47:19 > 0:47:21in the different categories, see how well you did at home.
0:47:21 > 0:47:23We will start with the Adele album.
0:47:23 > 0:47:25Lots of pointless answers here.
0:47:27 > 0:47:30You also could have had Love In The Dark, Million Years Ago,
0:47:30 > 0:47:33Send My Love To Your New Lover and Water Under The Bridge.
0:47:33 > 0:47:34All of those were pointless answers.
0:47:34 > 0:47:37Well done if you said any of them. Now for George Michael.
0:47:37 > 0:47:38You could have had...
0:47:41 > 0:47:44You could have had An Easier Affair, Flawless, Freedom 90.
0:47:44 > 0:47:46Heal The Pain was a pointless answer. Well done if you said that.
0:47:46 > 0:47:49Shoot The Dog. This Is Not Real Love. All of those were pointless answers.
0:47:49 > 0:47:52Well done if you said any of those. And now A-ha.
0:47:52 > 0:47:54Look at the first one on this list.
0:47:54 > 0:47:56Crying In The Rain winning you that money. Congratulations.
0:47:58 > 0:48:01Everything apart from Take On Me, understandably,
0:48:01 > 0:48:03The Sun Always Shines On TV, The Living Daylights,
0:48:03 > 0:48:05Hunting High And Low, Manhattan Skyline,
0:48:05 > 0:48:07Cry Wolf and Summer Moved On.
0:48:07 > 0:48:08Well done if you got one at home.
0:48:08 > 0:48:10Congratulations for your answer in the studio.
0:48:10 > 0:48:11Thanks very much, Rich,
0:48:11 > 0:48:14and thanks once again to our winning players, Don and Tim,
0:48:14 > 0:48:18who go away with today's jackpot of £2,750 for their charities.
0:48:18 > 0:48:19Very well done indeed.
0:48:19 > 0:48:21APPLAUSE
0:48:22 > 0:48:24Join us next time when we'll be putting
0:48:24 > 0:48:26more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:48:26 > 0:48:28Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...
0:48:28 > 0:48:30- Goodbye.- ..and it's goodbye from me.
0:48:30 > 0:48:32Goodbye.
0:48:32 > 0:48:35APPLAUSE
