0:02:04 > 0:02:06Thanks very much, all of you. A very warm welcome to Pointless.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Lovely to have you here. We'll get to chat to each of you throughout
0:02:09 > 0:02:10the show as it goes along.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce,
0:02:13 > 0:02:15an intergalactic knight of justice,
0:02:15 > 0:02:17defender of honour and destroyer of evil.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19And he also makes a lovely apple crumble.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Hiya! Hello, everybody, good evening.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Good evening to you, sir.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30I know. It's quite exciting, isn't it?
0:02:30 > 0:02:34I know.We've got Game Of Thrones, we've got Harry Potter,
0:02:34 > 0:02:38we've got Hitchhiker's Guide... Look, on podium four, Red Dwarf.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40We've had three people on from Red Dwarf.
0:02:40 > 0:02:41Craig Charles came on.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Yeah.Won.
0:02:43 > 0:02:44Danny John-Jules came on.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Yep.Won.
0:02:46 > 0:02:47Robert Llewellyn came on.
0:02:47 > 0:02:48Won.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50And we've got the two super-computers now,
0:02:50 > 0:02:53so it's an impossibility for them to lose, surely!
0:02:53 > 0:02:54No pressure, then!
0:02:54 > 0:02:57Do you know, if we'd let it be known that we had these people here,
0:02:57 > 0:03:00think how many hundreds of thousands of people we could have got together
0:03:00 > 0:03:03in a convention, just on their names alone.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05The money we could have made.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05ALEXANDER GASPS
0:03:05 > 0:03:07Charging for all sorts of things.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09I know, I know. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12As usual, all of today's questions have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16Our contestants here are looking for those all-important pointless answers.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18These are answers that none of our 100 people gave.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Find one of those and we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Now, as today's show is a celebrity special and each of our lovely
0:03:24 > 0:03:27celebrities here is playing for a nominated charity,
0:03:27 > 0:03:30we are going to start off with a jackpot of £2,500.
0:03:30 > 0:03:31There we are.
0:03:31 > 0:03:32AUDIENCE WHOOPS
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:03:40 > 0:03:41So, remember this, everyone.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43The pair with the highest score
0:03:43 > 0:03:45at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48The pair with the highest scores. So do everything you can to keep your
0:03:48 > 0:03:51scores nice and low. OK, very good. Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Our first category this evening is...
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Famous Characters.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Can you all decide in your pairs
0:03:59 > 0:04:01who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:04:01 > 0:04:04And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12OK, and the question concerns...
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Cops And Robbers. Oh, my.Ooh.
0:04:16 > 0:04:17RICHARD LAUGHS
0:04:17 > 0:04:20Richard.We are going to give you seven descriptions now on each board
0:04:20 > 0:04:23of famous characters who were either cops or robbers.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25We need you to give us the most obscure answer you can, please.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Seven on the first board, seven on the second,
0:04:27 > 0:04:2914 in all to have a go at at home.
0:04:29 > 0:04:30Good luck.Thanks very much.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33OK, so we are looking for these cops or robbers
0:04:33 > 0:04:35and here is our first board of seven clues.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11I'm going to read those all again.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46Hannah. The Joanna Lumley of musical theatre.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47HANNAH GUFFAWS
0:05:47 > 0:05:48Had you not heard this before?
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Yes, well, I've heard it once. Yes, yes.I'm going to take that.
0:05:51 > 0:05:52That's a nice compliment, isn't it?
0:05:52 > 0:05:55No, you have been in a number of,
0:05:55 > 0:05:57not just a number of leading roles in the West End,
0:05:57 > 0:06:00AWARD-WINNING leading roles, Hannah, if you please.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02So when something like Game Of
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Thrones comes along...Mm.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04..that's going to take you off stage for a while.
0:06:04 > 0:06:08Yes, and they give you absolutely no make-up on international television. That's hard to take.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11But that's what you look like!
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Horrific! But, um, yeah, when Game Of Thrones came along, it was so
0:06:14 > 0:06:18dramatically different from all the kind of glam roles I'd played
0:06:18 > 0:06:20that I was just chomping at the bit.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22And you loved it, from the moment you read it.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Oh, absolutely. She's revolting! The character.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28It kind of taps into that bit that you've never previously...
0:06:28 > 0:06:31How nice. Well, wonderful. Now, Hannah, what would you like
0:06:31 > 0:06:33to go for on our board of Cops And Robbers?
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Well, thankfully, I know what a few of them are.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39Thank the dear Lord above because my heart was beating like a you-know-what.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40I'm going to go for...
0:06:41 > 0:06:44..the bottom one, Artful Dodger.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Artful Dodger from Dickens' Oliver Twist.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Let's see how many of our 100 said Artful Dodger.
0:06:53 > 0:06:54It's right.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Thank God.Look at that. Down it goes, down it goes to 49.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Oh.Perfect.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01A good start to our round there, Hannah.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Not bad at all.Yeah, real name Jack Dawkins.
0:07:04 > 0:07:08It's alluded in the novel that he is sent to Australia
0:07:08 > 0:07:10at the end of the book for thieving.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Ah.Yeah.Mm-hm.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15His great-great-great-great grand-daughter...
0:07:15 > 0:07:17Was in Home And Away...is Kylie Minogue.
0:07:17 > 0:07:18Oh, right!
0:07:18 > 0:07:19LAUGHTER
0:07:19 > 0:07:22Thank you very much, Richard. Now, then, Chris, welcome to Pointless.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Thank you.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28You are our first Harry Potter person on Pointless.I am honoured.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30It's very exciting indeed.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32You were 16 when you got the role.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34I was.So were you a fan of the books?
0:07:34 > 0:07:39I was, yes, I was a true Harry Potter nerd from the moment they came out.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Really? And how did you hear about it?
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Who told you to audition?
0:07:43 > 0:07:46A mate of mine, actually, that I went to youth theatre with, rang me.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48He'd seen it on the BBC that they were doing it.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51He was also ginger, a couple of years younger than me.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54In terms of competitive gingerness, who out-gingered the other one?
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Well, I got the part and he didn't, so I guess I won.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01Ha-ha! And how many rounds of auditions did you have to do?
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Only one. One and a half. You walked in...Pretty much.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07I reckon there wasn't anyone else ginger they could find!
0:08:07 > 0:08:09Yeah.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12OK, but listen, Chris, what would you like to go for on this board?
0:08:12 > 0:08:16I'm going to go for the most obscure one that I'm surprised I know the answer to
0:08:16 > 0:08:19and then I'm hoping that nobody else or not as many people did and
0:08:19 > 0:08:23I'm going to go with the Tangled one and go Flynn Rider.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Flynn Rider says Chris.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Sounds like a good answer, I think, doesn't it?
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Let's see how many of our 100 people said Flynn Rider.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34It's right.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41Well, you passed 49 which was our only other score and down you go to
0:08:41 > 0:08:42three, if you please. Chris,
0:08:42 > 0:08:43APPLAUSE
0:08:44 > 0:08:47I don't think you'll be going backstage for a while yet, Chris.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Very well done. Three for Flynn Rider.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Very well played.What a great start to your Pointless career.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Yes, when they created the character, Disney held a "hot man" meeting,
0:08:54 > 0:08:57where everyone had to pitch in who the hottest man in the world was
0:08:57 > 0:09:00and they tried to create a composite character out of all of them.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04I think it's largely based on Ben Miller, is my understanding.
0:09:04 > 0:09:05A very handsome gentleman.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08He IS a handsome gentleman. He is.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10Now, David, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13You were Ford Prefect in the television version of
0:09:13 > 0:09:14Hitchhiker's Guide.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Now, the radio version that preceded it was one of those few phenomena
0:09:17 > 0:09:20that actually... I don't think in my life,
0:09:20 > 0:09:24I can't think of another radio programme that really got everybody
0:09:24 > 0:09:26talking.I deliberately blanked it.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30I didn't want to know anything about it so I came in fresh.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32I read the book, obviously.
0:09:32 > 0:09:36I loved that. I liked the fact that it was like the Python humour
0:09:36 > 0:09:39and all that sort of stuff and the Goons.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42I liked it and that's why I wanted to do it.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45I mean, Douglas Adams was... He's sort of revered, I suppose.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Was he around a lot? Was he... He was around every day.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49Was he?
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Yeah. He was there all the time.
0:09:51 > 0:09:56He was telling us all about the technology that we now take for granted.
0:09:56 > 0:09:57Yeah.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00At the time I didn't know what he meant when he said...
0:10:00 > 0:10:06"We're going to communicate with anyone, anywhere in the planet, instantly."
0:10:06 > 0:10:08You just thought, "Uh? Oh, wow. That's amazing."
0:10:08 > 0:10:10But that's how it is.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13I'm hearing you through a Babel Fish in my ears as we speak.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14So there we are.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17David, what about these cops and robbers?
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Would you like to put a name to one?
0:10:20 > 0:10:24I don't know any of them apart from, well,
0:10:24 > 0:10:29I think I might go for the planner of complex casino heists.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31It probably won't get a low score
0:10:31 > 0:10:33and I think it's Danny Ocean.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Danny Ocean, says David.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38Let's see how many of our 100 people said Danny Ocean.
0:10:43 > 0:10:44It's right.
0:10:44 > 0:10:4849's our high score and you pass it.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Look at that, 14 for Danny Ocean.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51Well done.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56Well played, David.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59That's a terrific answer. Yes, over the two Ocean's 11 films, which,
0:10:59 > 0:11:04one with Sinatra, one with Clooney, eight different casinos get robbed.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06That is, come on, guys... Mm.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08I would beef up security a little bit.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09Yeah.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Now then, Norman, welcome to Pointless.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Thank you.Great to have you here.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Norman, you were Holly originally,
0:11:18 > 0:11:19then someone else became Holly,
0:11:19 > 0:11:21and then you came back to Holly?
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Yes.Yes.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27Are you still - is there going to be another Red Dwarf?
0:11:27 > 0:11:31Yes, they're doing two new series, 11 and 12.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33I think the 11th one goes out...
0:11:33 > 0:11:35some time.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Some time?Well, that's good.
0:11:38 > 0:11:39You're like a regular Radio Times, Norman!
0:11:39 > 0:11:41LAUGHTER
0:11:41 > 0:11:43And 12 goes out...
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Some time after that?A year later. Yeah, yeah.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48I was talking about conventions earlier.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Surely Red Dwarf, that must have conventions for ever.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54There's such huge... Yeah.Huge fandom.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56I did a lot last year and a lot this year.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58And before that I used to do about two a year
0:11:58 > 0:12:01but now it's just gone mad. They're very popular.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04But I like seeing all the costumes. I enjoy that.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07And I'm quite gregarious - I like talking to people, but
0:12:07 > 0:12:09it can wear you out mentally.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12I was talking to Hattie earlier about it, and was saying,
0:12:12 > 0:12:16if you're doing Saturday and Sunday, then on the Monday
0:12:16 > 0:12:19I just...have my dressing gown on all day...
0:12:19 > 0:12:20Really? Just exhausted.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24..until Pointless comes on at 5:15, and do nothing, you know,
0:12:24 > 0:12:28just to get over it, because it's very tiring.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31But I do enjoy that, I do enjoy it.
0:12:31 > 0:12:32Now, Norman, this board is all yours,
0:12:32 > 0:12:35if you want to go through it and fill in all the blanks for us.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Well, I'd like to apologise now to Hattie
0:12:37 > 0:12:40for how many I'm going to get. It's going to be hard.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Alter ego of Selina Kyle, just...we'll see.
0:12:42 > 0:12:46I'd have to make up a name. I don't know what it is.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Folk hero, Robin Hood.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53Detective in Life On Mars, I did watch that but I can't...
0:12:53 > 0:12:55ST?
0:12:55 > 0:12:56Steve Tompkins?
0:12:56 > 0:12:58I don't know, I don't know.
0:12:58 > 0:13:03And then the detective played by Peter Falk, yes, Columbo.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06It's a matter of between Columbo and Robin Hood and I think they are both
0:13:06 > 0:13:08going to be pretty high. I'm going to go for Columbo.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Columbo, says Norman.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Let's see how many of our 100 people said Columbo.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16Move.It's right.
0:13:17 > 0:13:2069 for Columbo.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Great news for podium one.
0:13:22 > 0:13:2369 for Columbo.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26You made absolutely the right choice of the two you knew, Norman.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Would have scored lots more for Robin Hood.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30Would have scored you 84.Oh, good. So, good decision.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32That's helped a bit.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34Given Hattie a fighting chance there.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36You do know the top one, I'm sure. The top one is...Catwoman.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39Catwoman, yeah. She would have scored 52.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42And the final answer, the detective played by John Sim?
0:13:42 > 0:13:45I can't remember what he was called. It is Steve Tompkins.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47It's not really, it's not really!
0:13:47 > 0:13:50LAUGHTER
0:13:50 > 0:13:52It's not. It is Sam Tyler.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55Sam Tyler. Would have scored you four points.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58So, the best answer on that board is Flynn Rider, well played.
0:13:58 > 0:13:59Very good indeed, Chris.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03We're halfway through the round.
0:14:03 > 0:14:04Let's take a quick look at those scores.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Three, the best score of that pass.
0:14:06 > 0:14:07Well done. Jeff, looking very strong.
0:14:07 > 0:14:0914, not bad either.
0:14:09 > 0:14:10David and Sandra, well done.
0:14:10 > 0:14:1349 is where we find Hannah and Gemma.
0:14:13 > 0:14:14And then 69 is where Norman and Hattie are.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17You're not that far ahead, Hattie. But a nice low score from you.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20Good luck with that. We are going to come back down the line now.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:14:26 > 0:14:28OK, well, let's put seven more clues up on the board
0:14:28 > 0:14:29and here they all are.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31We have got these cops and robbers...
0:15:03 > 0:15:04I'm going to read those all again.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35Hattie, welcome to Pointless. Lovely to have you here.Thank you.
0:15:35 > 0:15:36So, when you went up for Holly,
0:15:36 > 0:15:39you knew that Norman had just vacated the role.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41What were you... What were you expecting?
0:15:41 > 0:15:44We'd both been in the last episode of series two.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46You were Hilly, weren't you?Yeah.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48You were sort of... You were the parallel universe version.
0:15:48 > 0:15:49We fell madly in love.
0:15:49 > 0:15:53Aw!And then, um, Norman had a sex change.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55That's right.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57And Hattie, are you...
0:15:57 > 0:15:58Are you doing stand-up, still?
0:15:58 > 0:16:02Yeah.Do you still... Are you touring?
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Yeah, on a going-there-and-coming-back
0:16:04 > 0:16:07sort of basis. Not touring with the big poster.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09No.But going there and coming back.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11And coming back. I know exactly what you mean.
0:16:11 > 0:16:12Not considered touring, but...
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Doesn't Hattie's dress match the fuchsia colouring of the studio?
0:16:16 > 0:16:17Well, I took this into account.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19I'm a regular fan of this.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21So I took it into account.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24I like the way you've chosen a colour that goes with Round One, Hattie.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Yes.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Because we're definitely in Round One.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Yeah. You are.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33I tell you what, you are our high-scorers at the moment.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Yeah.So you know what we need from you at this stage.
0:16:35 > 0:16:36Yeah.
0:16:36 > 0:16:37Erm...
0:16:37 > 0:16:40I'm going to go with Helen Mirren, Jane Tennison.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Jane Tennison, says Hattie.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44I hope.There's going to be no red line for you, I'm afraid,
0:16:44 > 0:16:46because you are the high-scorers.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49But let's see how far down the column we can with Jane Tennison.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55It's right.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00Look at that. 25 for Jane Tennison. Very well done indeed,
0:17:00 > 0:17:02taking your total up to 94.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Well played, Hattie.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Yeah, in the series created by Lynda La Plante.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08Thank you very much, Richard.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Sandra...Yes.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13Welcome to Pointless. Thank you.Trillian, you were.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15Yes.Trillian you were in Hitchhiker's Guide.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18I've had a lot to do with sci-fi over the years.
0:17:18 > 0:17:19Haven't you?I have.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21Talk to us about the Doctor Whos.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Well, one of them is no longer by marriage
0:17:24 > 0:17:26but it was lovely while it lasted.
0:17:26 > 0:17:30And the other one is father to all my grandchildren.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32My daughter is a time lady.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Is a time lady, and she's married to David Tennant.Yes.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Yes. So I'm well connected in the sci-fi world.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41You REALLY are.And I was also in the Tomorrow People.
0:17:41 > 0:17:45And Superman III. And Supergirl.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47And it probably has something to do with my voice.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49But maybe not, I don't know.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51It's a lovely voice.Thank you.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53Sandra, how are you feeling about our board?
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Such a good answer from David in the first pass.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56You are in very, very...
0:17:56 > 0:17:59I know. I know the answer to four.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00One of them's gone.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03I'm going to go for the last one.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07The P is for Parker.
0:18:09 > 0:18:10The P is for Parker.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12OK. You're in the new version.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14I play Grandma Tracy in the new series.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16So you do.With a deeper voice.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Wonderful. There is your red line, Sandra.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22If you can get below that red line, you are through to the next round.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25Let's see how many of our 100 people said Parker.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29It IS Parker. You are through.
0:18:31 > 0:18:3352 for Parker.
0:18:33 > 0:18:34Very, very well done indeed.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37That takes your total up to 66.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Yes, his full name is Aloysius Parker.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43It's never occurred to me the joke, that he's a chauffeur called Parker.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45I never worked that out.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47That must be deliberate, right? Surely.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Yeah. Thank you, Richard.
0:18:49 > 0:18:50And thank you.Pleasure.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Now, Jeff...Hello.
0:18:54 > 0:18:55Welcome.Thank you.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59I mean, well, Drop The Dead Donkey is probably the most notable
0:18:59 > 0:19:02television role you have had to date.Yes, I would say so.
0:19:02 > 0:19:07Yes.But Harry Potter and... It was Goblet Of Fire you were in.
0:19:07 > 0:19:08That's right. Yes, I played...
0:19:08 > 0:19:11So when you are doing something massive like Harry Potter,
0:19:11 > 0:19:13which is just a huge, huge thing,
0:19:13 > 0:19:16do you have any sort of great big company meetings?
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Do you have, like, a read-through where everybody is there?
0:19:18 > 0:19:23Yes, we did. We had about 500 people around a table and big microphones.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26They recorded the whole thing... Wow!
0:19:26 > 0:19:29..so that the animators could use it at a later date.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Because they couldn't see the real footage that was about to be shot
0:19:32 > 0:19:34but they had an idea of what it was going to look like.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Where were all your scenes?
0:19:36 > 0:19:37I was in the big arena.
0:19:37 > 0:19:42Famously, this scene where my son died, Cedric Diggory died,
0:19:42 > 0:19:46it was the first time that anybody had died on Harry Potter.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48And whatever happened to that actor as well?
0:19:48 > 0:19:49I know.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52You know, he never sends flowers.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54You know, he just... Yeah.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Now, Jeff, you're on three.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Our high-scorers are still Hattie and Norman on 94.
0:19:58 > 0:20:0090 or less gets you through.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03It's basically a correct answer.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05Well, I'm going to go for, um...
0:20:06 > 0:20:09..Telly Savalas, who played Kojak.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Kojak, says Jeff.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Well, here is your red line.
0:20:14 > 0:20:15You don't have to go very far to cross it.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Let's see how many of our 100 people said Kojak.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23It's right and you're through. Very well done indeed.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25Down to 72. Good enough.
0:20:25 > 0:20:2675 is your total.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32Theo Kojak. I was in the last ever scene of Drop The Dead Donkey.
0:20:32 > 0:20:33Because the writer, Guy Jenkin,
0:20:33 > 0:20:35who is a lovely fellow but he's also very tall,
0:20:35 > 0:20:38the final scene is two people carrying out a table.
0:20:38 > 0:20:42And he essentially just wanted someone in the office who was as tall as him.That's right.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43So I get to carry it out with him.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45ALEXANDER CHUCKLES
0:20:45 > 0:20:46Thank you very much, Richard.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Gemma.Hello.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Welcome to Pointless. Thank you.Great to have you.
0:20:50 > 0:20:55Now, when YOU were filming Game Of Thrones did you have any idea
0:20:55 > 0:20:57at all of what a phenomenon it was going to be?
0:20:57 > 0:20:59Not a clue, no.
0:20:59 > 0:21:00I joined in season two.
0:21:00 > 0:21:04I knew it had been sort of popular but only in America.
0:21:04 > 0:21:05Yeah, it was terrifying.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08I watched all of season one pretty much back-to-back.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10So that was before you were in it?
0:21:10 > 0:21:11Yeah, I got the audition and I thought,
0:21:11 > 0:21:13I'd better have a look at what it's about.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16I was just thinking I'd watch a little bit and I watched the whole lot.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Very good. Excellent. There you are on 49.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20We have a game on our hands here. We can't put this off any longer.
0:21:20 > 0:21:2294 is the highest score on the far podium there.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24You have to score 44 or less.
0:21:24 > 0:21:2644 or less, Gemma.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Talk us through this board.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30I have an inkling about the top.
0:21:30 > 0:21:31But I don't know.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Er...
0:21:34 > 0:21:37I think I will go with the top one.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38Javert.Javert...
0:21:40 > 0:21:41..says Gemma.I think.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43You're getting half a nod from David.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Am I?I think that's good.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Thank you, D, thanks very much!
0:21:47 > 0:21:49It's a nervous tic. I'll take it.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Let's have a tick here.That is where you have to get below.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54That is where you have to get below with Javert.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Not that this means a lot to us at all.No, no.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01Let's see how many of our 100 people said Javert.
0:22:03 > 0:22:04It's right.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09You've done it! You've easily done it.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Oh!
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Good work, old bean! Good work.
0:22:14 > 0:22:1761. 61 is your total.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20Very well played, Gemma. It's a great answer.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Shall we fill in the rest of this board?
0:22:21 > 0:22:25The best answer is the second answer, the jewel thief, who is Flambeau.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28Very well done. Would have scored you three points.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Played by Sylvester Stallone in a series of movies.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33Sorry, that was Rambo. I'm so sorry!
0:22:33 > 0:22:34LAUGHTER
0:22:34 > 0:22:37The tough inspector played by Clint Eastwood?
0:22:37 > 0:22:38Harry Callahan.
0:22:38 > 0:22:39Harry Callahan, yeah.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41That would have scored 22.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45The bumbling lieutenant? Frank Drebin.Frank Drebin, correct.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47That would have scored ten points.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49There we are. Thank you very much indeed.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51At the end of our first round, we have to say goodbye,
0:22:51 > 0:22:54and the pair we say goodbye to is Hattie and Norman. I'm so sorry. 94.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56It's not a bad score by any means.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59You aren't that far ahead of the game, but I'm afraid you are...
0:22:59 > 0:23:02It is our combined IQ anyway.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05It's been lovely having you on. Thank you so much.Thank you!
0:23:05 > 0:23:08Holly one, Holly two and Holly three.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Thanks so much. Hattie and Norman.
0:23:10 > 0:23:11Thank you!
0:23:14 > 0:23:17For the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24And look - we are down to three pairs.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26It's just happened like that. Down to three pairs.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29At the end of this round another pair will just be gone.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31I know. It's awful, really.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Best of luck to all three pairs for Round Two.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Our category for it this evening is...
0:23:37 > 0:23:38Words.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40It's a Words round.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Can you decide in your pairs, who's going to go first,
0:23:42 > 0:23:43who's going to go second?
0:23:43 > 0:23:46And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:24:01 > 0:24:04..as they could. Words ending in "...ach". Richard.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Yes, we're looking for any word which has its own entry in the
0:24:06 > 0:24:10British and World English section of Oxforddictionaries.com
0:24:10 > 0:24:12that ends "...ach", please.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14So any word in the dictionary which ends "...ach".
0:24:14 > 0:24:18As always, no hyphenated words and no proper nouns.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20The very best of luck. Thank you very much indeed.
0:24:20 > 0:24:21Always tough going first.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Now, Gemma.
0:24:24 > 0:24:25What would you like to go for?
0:24:25 > 0:24:26Encroach?
0:24:26 > 0:24:28AUDIENCE MEMBERS:Ooh!
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Exactly. Exactly! You hear what that is?
0:24:30 > 0:24:32That doesn't happen every day, Gemma.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34That is exciting.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37Let's see how many of our 100 people said encroach.
0:24:42 > 0:24:43It's an answer, at least.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45Pointless.
0:24:45 > 0:24:46It's a good answer.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48Look at that.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50Down to two, Gemma, what about that?
0:24:50 > 0:24:53What about that?!
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Wow.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Two for encroach.
0:24:58 > 0:25:02Do you know what, they are not like that on Game Of Thrones, those two, are they?
0:25:02 > 0:25:05I have to say it is a terrific answer, yeah.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09To invade, to go into someone else's territory, to encroach.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12What about that? What about that?! No pressure on you, Jeff.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16No. I'll look a fool, now.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19I'm going to go for...broach.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Broach, says Jeff.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23Let's see how many of our 100 people said broach.
0:25:28 > 0:25:29It's right.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37Ten for broach.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42Very nicely done, Jeff. Obviously to raise a difficult issue
0:25:42 > 0:25:44rather than a piece of jewellery.Yes.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47That's spelled differently. Different spelling, yes. Thank you.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49David, what would you like to go for?
0:25:49 > 0:25:53I think I'm going to nick that one. I think I'm going to go for coach.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Coach, says David.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Let's see how many of our 100 people said coach.
0:26:07 > 0:26:08Oh, my word!
0:26:08 > 0:26:1017 for coach.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16Yes, coach, as in coach. It can mean a number of things.Got it.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20To coach can mean to train, which is weird, when you think about it.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Because coach and trains are different things
0:26:22 > 0:26:24but TO coach and TO train are the same thing.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26So what's that all about?
0:26:26 > 0:26:27What is that all about?
0:26:27 > 0:26:29Do you know what I mean?It's a beautiful world, ours, isn't it?
0:26:29 > 0:26:32Well, I don't know. I think somebody at the dictionary should
0:26:32 > 0:26:34get their act together because that is confusing.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Thank you very much, Richard. Thank you.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39We're halfway through the round. Better have a look at those scores.
0:26:39 > 0:26:40Two, Gemma.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43Hmph! Just brilliant, just brilliant.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45Ten is Jeff and Chris.
0:26:45 > 0:26:4717 is David and Sandra.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49I mean, they're all very close, score-wise,
0:26:49 > 0:26:52but, Sandra, you are ahead, so we just have to address that.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Best of luck with that. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57Could the second players please step up to the podium?
0:27:00 > 0:27:05So, Sandra, we are looking for words ending A-C-H.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09Oh, you're still looking for those? Oh, OK.
0:27:09 > 0:27:10OK, cockroach.
0:27:10 > 0:27:11Cockroach, says Sandra.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14No red line for you because you're the highest scorers,
0:27:14 > 0:27:17but let's see how many of our 100 people said cockroach.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31Five for cockroach, takes your total up to 22.
0:27:33 > 0:27:37That's a terrific answer, Sandra, very well played.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41Yes, cockroach. A cockroach can survive without its head for over a week.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45So annoying. That's just... And they can freeze and...
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Oh, yeah, they can do all sorts of things. They do, yeah.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51Can't play the violin, though, that's the one thing, that's the one thing.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54Thank you. Now, Chris. Yeah.What would you like?
0:27:54 > 0:27:57You're on ten. The high score is 22. 11 is your target.
0:27:57 > 0:28:0311.I'm going to play it slightly safe and go preach.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05Preach. Here is your red line. If you get below this red line
0:28:05 > 0:28:07with preach you're through to the next round.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09How many people said preach?
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on!
0:28:18 > 0:28:20Oh, 14 for preach.
0:28:20 > 0:28:23Takes your total up to 24.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27It's not a bad answer.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31Yeah. Preach. It's a vicar's favourite fruit.
0:28:31 > 0:28:32RELUCTANT LAUGHTER
0:28:32 > 0:28:33Thank you very much indeed.
0:28:33 > 0:28:38Hannah.Hello.You're on two, which means if you can score 19 or less,
0:28:38 > 0:28:42you're home and dry. I'm going to say breach.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45There is your red line. Get below that red line and you are through.
0:28:45 > 0:28:48Let's see how many of our 100 people said breach.
0:28:57 > 0:28:58Oooh!
0:28:58 > 0:29:0122! Oh, this is exciting.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03This is exciting. It means...
0:29:03 > 0:29:05That takes you to 24.
0:29:05 > 0:29:07You are on 24.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10What now?We have a lockdown scenario.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13The tied pairs now have to give me one more answer each.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16You're allowed to confer for this. Oh, good.You can confer.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21THEY WHISPER
0:29:21 > 0:29:25Yeah.OK, Hannah and Gemma, what are you going to say?
0:29:25 > 0:29:26BOTH:Stomach.
0:29:26 > 0:29:32OK, Chris and Jeff, what are you going to say?
0:29:32 > 0:29:35Impeach.Impeach.
0:29:35 > 0:29:36Stomach and impeach.
0:29:36 > 0:29:38Hannah and Gemma...I don't actually want to watch.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40We're going to do stomach first.
0:29:40 > 0:29:41Let's see how many of our 100 people said stomach.
0:29:48 > 0:29:49This is stomach. Down it goes.
0:29:49 > 0:29:50Still going down.
0:29:52 > 0:29:53OK.Oh.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56That's cool. Saying that.
0:29:57 > 0:29:59Taking your total up to 46.
0:30:00 > 0:30:0146.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03Now then, Chris and Jeff have gone for impeach.
0:30:03 > 0:30:07Ideally, you would score 21 or less with this.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09That is your red line.
0:30:09 > 0:30:11Impeach, let's see if it's right,
0:30:11 > 0:30:13let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:30:17 > 0:30:18It's right.
0:30:20 > 0:30:21Oh, God.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24You've done it.Yes!
0:30:24 > 0:30:25Six.
0:30:25 > 0:30:26Yes!
0:30:27 > 0:30:29Six takes your total up to 30.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33Very well played. I'll give you a couple of answers
0:30:33 > 0:30:36that could've beaten six points that would've seen you through.
0:30:36 > 0:30:37You could have had overreach for four.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39Detach for four.
0:30:39 > 0:30:40Approach for four.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42Something else you'd have in your stomach.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45Spinach. That would have scored you four points.
0:30:45 > 0:30:46Outreach for three.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49For one point, stagecoach.
0:30:49 > 0:30:50That would have been a nice one.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53Let's take a look at the pointless answers now. There's quite a few of them.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56The first three are all from Gaelic.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58There's bealach, which is a mountain pass.
0:30:58 > 0:30:59A clarsach, which is a harp.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01And a currach, which is a...
0:31:01 > 0:31:03You're a coracle.Thank you, you're a clarsach!
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Very kind. Let's take a look at a couple more.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08People would have got one of these.
0:31:08 > 0:31:10Reproach, a pointless answer, reteach, and slowcoach.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12How about that for a pointless answer?
0:31:12 > 0:31:13That's good.That'd be a nice one.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16Let's take a look at the top three scorers, the ones that most of our
0:31:16 > 0:31:19100 people said when we asked them online.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29Thank you very much indeed.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33So, at the end of our second round, the pair we have to say goodbye to, Hannah and Gemma...
0:31:33 > 0:31:35Oh, no!I can't bear it, it's you. I'm so sorry. Ah!
0:31:36 > 0:31:38Yeah. I don't know what to say.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40I'm too gutted to talk. Yeah, we are. We're a bit shocked.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43Hannah and Gemma, it's been lovely having you. Come and play again.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45Thank you very much.Hannah and Gemma, wonderful.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46Thank you.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51But for Sandra and David, Chris and Jeff, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57Congratulations, Sandra and David, Chris and Jeff.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00You're now one step closer to the final
0:32:00 > 0:32:02and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:32:02 > 0:32:04which currently stands at £2,500.
0:32:04 > 0:32:05AUDIENCE:Ooooh!
0:32:07 > 0:32:11So this is the round where we decide who goes through to the final to play for that jackpot.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13And we do it by making you go head-to-head.
0:32:13 > 0:32:15But the difference is, you're now allowed to play as a team.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17You can confer before you give your answers
0:32:17 > 0:32:21and the first player to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:32:21 > 0:32:22Well, this is exciting.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25It's Hitchhiker's Guide versus Harry Potter.
0:32:25 > 0:32:27Best of luck to both pairs.
0:32:27 > 0:32:28Let's play the head-to-head.
0:32:34 > 0:32:38Here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:32:40 > 0:32:43Richard.We'll show you five pictures now of
0:32:43 > 0:32:48the casts of UK and US sitcoms. Can you identify the sitcoms, please?
0:32:48 > 0:32:51OK, so let's reveal our cast pictures and here they come.
0:32:51 > 0:32:52We have got...
0:33:21 > 0:33:23There we go. Five sitcoms.
0:33:23 > 0:33:27Now, Sandra and David, you are our low scorers so you will go first.
0:33:27 > 0:33:28Feel free to confer.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30THEY WHISPER
0:33:36 > 0:33:39We're going to go for A.
0:33:39 > 0:33:40A.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43And what would you like to say for A?
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Cheers!Cheers to you!
0:33:46 > 0:33:48There we are. Cheers, say Sandra and David.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50Now, Chris and Jeff, that board's all yours.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52Would you like to talk us through it?
0:33:52 > 0:33:53Not especially.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55THEY LAUGH
0:33:55 > 0:33:58Well, E is Only Fools And Horses. Yeah, obviously.
0:33:58 > 0:33:59B and C, we have...
0:33:59 > 0:34:02We're not sure.We think they're American, probably.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05Not the foggiest idea.
0:34:05 > 0:34:10Which leaves D, which we think is How I Met Your Mother.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12How I Met Your Mother for D.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15So, Sandra and David are saying Cheers for A.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18Let's see how many of our 100 people said Cheers for A.
0:34:21 > 0:34:22It is Cheers.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26And it scores 55.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33Not bad. Now, Chris and Jeff have gone for How I Met Your Mother,
0:34:33 > 0:34:34which they are saying is D.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37Let's see how many of our 100 people said How I Met Your Mother.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42It is How I Met Your Mother.
0:34:42 > 0:34:46And it wins you the point. Very well done, indeed. Down you go to 30.
0:34:46 > 0:34:47Very well played.
0:34:47 > 0:34:52After one question, Chris and Jeff, you are up 1-0.
0:34:52 > 0:34:52That's very good work.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55Now, B, it really does look like an American sitcom, you're quite right.
0:34:55 > 0:34:57But it's not.It's not. No, it's Coupling.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59It's Coupling. Yeah, absolutely.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01With Jack Davenport, Sarah Alexander,
0:35:01 > 0:35:03all sorts of people in there. Four points for that.
0:35:03 > 0:35:08Now, C is another wonderful American sitcom.
0:35:08 > 0:35:09Arrested Development.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11Arrested Development. Would have scored you ten points.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13And what do you think E scored?
0:35:14 > 0:35:1795.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19I would think this is about as close to 100 as you could get.
0:35:19 > 0:35:2388. 88.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25Thanks very much, Richard, so here comes your second question.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28Chris and Jeff, you get to answer it first but, Sandra and David,
0:35:28 > 0:35:31you have to win this one to stay in the game, so good luck.
0:35:31 > 0:35:35Our second question this evening is all about...
0:35:37 > 0:35:40Richard.We're going to play you five clips now of songs,
0:35:40 > 0:35:42all of which have the word "bad" in their title.
0:35:42 > 0:35:46Can you identify any of the artists you're about to hear?
0:35:46 > 0:35:52OK. Let's have a listen to these five clips and we start with A.
0:35:52 > 0:35:54# Shot through the heart
0:35:54 > 0:35:55# And you're to blame
0:35:55 > 0:35:59# You give love a bad name Bad name
0:35:59 > 0:36:03# I play my part and you play your game
0:36:03 > 0:36:07# You give love a bad name Bad name
0:36:07 > 0:36:10# You give love
0:36:12 > 0:36:13# A bad name... #
0:36:15 > 0:36:16Here is B.
0:36:17 > 0:36:21# Bad boys stick together, never sad boys
0:36:21 > 0:36:24# Do-do-do do-do, whoo, whoo!
0:36:24 > 0:36:29# Good guys, they made rules for fools, so get wise
0:36:29 > 0:36:32# Do-do-do do-do, do do-do... #
0:36:34 > 0:36:35Here is C.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40# Cos you had a bad day, you're taking one down
0:36:40 > 0:36:43# You sing a sad song just to turn it around
0:36:43 > 0:36:44# You say you don't know
0:36:44 > 0:36:47# You tell me don't lie
0:36:47 > 0:36:50# You work at a smile, and you go for a ride
0:36:50 > 0:36:52# You had a bad day... #
0:36:54 > 0:36:55Here is D.
0:36:56 > 0:37:00# I'm bad, I'm bad You know it, really bad
0:37:00 > 0:37:04# You know I'm bad, I'm bad You know it, really bad
0:37:04 > 0:37:08# You know I'm bad, I'm bad You know it, really bad
0:37:08 > 0:37:11# And the whole world has to answer right now
0:37:11 > 0:37:13# Just to tell you once again Who's bad?... #
0:37:15 > 0:37:16Here is E.
0:37:17 > 0:37:20# It's official, I survived what I been through
0:37:20 > 0:37:22# Y'all got drama, "The Saga Continues..."
0:37:22 > 0:37:26# We ain't goin' nowhere,
0:37:26 > 0:37:29# We ain't going nowhere
0:37:29 > 0:37:33# We can't be stopped now cos it's Bad Boy for life
0:37:33 > 0:37:36# We ain't goin' nowhere,
0:37:36 > 0:37:39# We ain't going nowhere... #
0:37:39 > 0:37:41OK. There we are.
0:37:41 > 0:37:45Now then, Chris and Jeff, you will go first.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47Well, we're going to play a little bit safe,
0:37:47 > 0:37:50but we hope we're going to be good
0:37:50 > 0:37:52with A, Bon Jovi.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54A, Bon Jovi, said Chris and Jeff.
0:37:54 > 0:37:58A, Bon Jovi. Now, Sandra and David.
0:37:58 > 0:38:01We don't actually know any of 'em.
0:38:01 > 0:38:05Except...Except the most obvious one.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08We're going to go for D, which is Michael Jackson.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10D, Michael Jackson. So we have...
0:38:11 > 0:38:14A - Bon Jovi. D - Michael Jackson.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16Chris and Jeff said A was Bon Jovi.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said Bon Jovi.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23It is Bon Jovi.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27It is absolutely Bon Jovi.
0:38:27 > 0:38:28There we are, 47 points.
0:38:29 > 0:38:33Now then, Sandra and David, you have been forced into a corner here.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35You had to go for the only one you knew.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38Well, he's the only... He's the man, he's the king. He's the baddest.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41You've gone for Michael Jackson. Let's see if Michael Jackson's right for D.
0:38:41 > 0:38:42Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:38:42 > 0:38:4447 is what you want to beat.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48It's right.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51Yeah. I'm afraid, 74.
0:38:52 > 0:38:57And what about that? That means, Harry Potter, look at that.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59After only two questions, Chris and Jeff,
0:38:59 > 0:39:01you're straight through to the final 2-0.
0:39:01 > 0:39:02Very, very well played.
0:39:02 > 0:39:03Let's fill in the rest of these, shall we?
0:39:03 > 0:39:05Let's have a tiny listen to B.
0:39:05 > 0:39:07# Bad boys stick together... #
0:39:07 > 0:39:09That is...?Wham!
0:39:09 > 0:39:12Wham! Early Wham! Bad Boys, yeah.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14The expression on your face with this next song.
0:39:14 > 0:39:16This next song's a very, very familiar song.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19In fact, it was the most played song in the UK between 2003 and 2008,
0:39:19 > 0:39:21and the expression on your face trying to remember who recorded it.
0:39:21 > 0:39:23Let's have a little listen.
0:39:23 > 0:39:24# Cos you had a bad day... #
0:39:24 > 0:39:25I can remember his first name.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27HE HUMS ALONG
0:39:27 > 0:39:29Any closer to getting it? He's called Daniel.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31I can't remember his surname. He is called Daniel.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34Daniel Powter. Daniel Powter is exactly right.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Nine points for that. Have you just got that?
0:39:36 > 0:39:38No, we knew it, but we weren't sure.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40We were too scared to say it. Too scared.
0:39:40 > 0:39:41The final one.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44# It's official, I survived what I been through... #
0:39:44 > 0:39:48That's Bad Boys For Life and that's P Diddy.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50P Diddy, Black Rob and Mark Curry.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52Not the Mark Curry who was on Blue Peter.
0:39:52 > 0:39:53Not that one. No.
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Bad Boys For Life. Three points for that.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57There we are. Thank you very much indeed.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:40:00 > 0:40:03I'm so sorry, it's the Hitchhiker's Guide pair, Sandra and David.
0:40:03 > 0:40:04Such a pleasure having you here.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07Thank you so much, Sandra and David, you've been wonderful.
0:40:07 > 0:40:08Thank you for having us. Thank you.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13But for Chris and Jeff it is now time for our Pointless final.
0:40:18 > 0:40:22Congratulations, Chris and Jeff, you have fought off all the competition
0:40:22 > 0:40:24and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:40:31 > 0:40:34Brilliant.You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot for your
0:40:34 > 0:40:36charities and at the end of today's show
0:40:36 > 0:40:39the jackpot is standing at £2,500. There we are.
0:40:42 > 0:40:45Look at that. Harry Potter wins.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Ah, just a supreme performance there.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50What would you like to see come up in this last round?
0:40:50 > 0:40:54Um, late 20th-century painters, perhaps.
0:40:54 > 0:40:55I don't know.
0:40:55 > 0:41:00That could be good.Theatre. Any of these would be good.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02OK, let's see what's up on the board behind me today.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04Our selection reads like this.
0:41:04 > 0:41:05We have got...
0:41:13 > 0:41:16Well, forget Formula 1.Yeah.
0:41:17 > 0:41:19Brothers can be good. Brothers can be good.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22You know, like it could be Marx Brothers, it could be, you know,
0:41:22 > 0:41:24brothers we would know.
0:41:24 > 0:41:25Yeah, yeah.What do you reckon?
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Maybe we'll go for Brothers.
0:41:27 > 0:41:28Yeah?And it's a bit amorphous.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30At least we don't know what we're getting.
0:41:30 > 0:41:32Yeah. Let's prolong the agony.
0:41:32 > 0:41:35There you are, exactly. Step into the unknown.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37Thanks.Like the devil you DON'T know.
0:41:37 > 0:41:40OK, let's see. Brothers. Richard.Yeah, very Best of luck.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Three very different categories here.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44Hopefully, one of them will suit you.
0:41:44 > 0:41:45We're looking for...
0:41:49 > 0:41:53I know! Or we're looking for anyone cast in two or more episodes
0:41:53 > 0:41:55of Band Of Brothers, the US TV series.
0:41:55 > 0:41:58So any actor cast in that, according to IMDb.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01Or any opponent defeated by one of the Klitschko brothers in a
0:42:01 > 0:42:03professional boxing bout, please.
0:42:03 > 0:42:05So, Bros UK top 40 singles,
0:42:05 > 0:42:08anyone in two or more episodes of Band Of Brothers,
0:42:08 > 0:42:10or any opponents defeated by the Klitschko brothers.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12Very best of luck. Thank you very much, indeed.
0:42:12 > 0:42:16Now, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:42:16 > 0:42:19and all you need to win that jackpot is for one of those answers to be
0:42:19 > 0:42:21pointless.Yes.Are you ready?
0:42:21 > 0:42:24We're ready.Good. Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:42:24 > 0:42:26There they are. Your time starts now.
0:42:26 > 0:42:27So, over to you, Chris.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29Bros. Do you know anything about Bros?
0:42:29 > 0:42:30I know them, but I can't think of...
0:42:30 > 0:42:33I know their names, and that's as good as it gets.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35Any title at all?None at all.
0:42:35 > 0:42:36Rubbish, OK.Klitschko brothers.
0:42:36 > 0:42:39I've heard of them, but...Yeah.
0:42:39 > 0:42:40I wouldn't know.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42Actors, then.Yes.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Actors in Band Of Brothers.
0:42:44 > 0:42:48Which was an American show. It was HBO.
0:42:48 > 0:42:49HBO series.
0:42:49 > 0:42:50Spielberg, I think.
0:42:50 > 0:42:51Yes.
0:42:52 > 0:42:55Would we say...
0:42:55 > 0:42:57Stacy Keach?
0:42:57 > 0:42:58I've a feeling... Yes,
0:42:58 > 0:43:01but the first name that springs to mind on that is Damian Lewis.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03Ah, yes.Who is British, but I'm pretty sure he was in it.
0:43:03 > 0:43:04Yes, he was.
0:43:05 > 0:43:07Other than that...This is good.
0:43:07 > 0:43:10..I am...pretty flummoxed.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15Shall we go with that? Yeah, we need two more, though.
0:43:15 > 0:43:17And we've got ten seconds to come up with them.
0:43:17 > 0:43:20Have a guess at the UK top 40?
0:43:22 > 0:43:24Two American actors.
0:43:26 > 0:43:28OK, I'm afraid that is your time up,
0:43:28 > 0:43:29so let's have three answers from you.
0:43:29 > 0:43:33We might be having to make some up here. But that's fun.Yes.
0:43:33 > 0:43:35What are you going to go for?
0:43:35 > 0:43:38We're going to stick with the cast of Band Of Brothers.
0:43:38 > 0:43:41Good.Because that's as good as it is going to get.
0:43:41 > 0:43:42Yes.
0:43:43 > 0:43:45Damian Lewis, I think, we're pretty sure on.
0:43:45 > 0:43:49Yeah.And then do you want to name an actor off the top of your head?
0:43:49 > 0:43:51Well, I said Stacy Keach, I don't know why.
0:43:51 > 0:43:53He's a wonderful actor.Stacy...
0:43:53 > 0:43:56Let's have him. He should have been in it.Stacy Keach.Yes.
0:43:56 > 0:43:59OK, so we have Damian Lewis, Stacy Keach.
0:43:59 > 0:44:00I'm going to go Mark Ruffalo.
0:44:00 > 0:44:01For no good reason.
0:44:01 > 0:44:04Mark Ruffalo.OK, no good reason, but why not?
0:44:04 > 0:44:07Why not? What order would you like to put them in?
0:44:07 > 0:44:09Which is your most likely to be pointless?
0:44:09 > 0:44:11Damian Lewis is most likely to be right.
0:44:11 > 0:44:13Yes.Shall we put Damian Lewis last?
0:44:13 > 0:44:16Damian Lewis, let's go last. Let's go out in a blaze of glory.
0:44:16 > 0:44:18OK, least likely?
0:44:18 > 0:44:21Stacy Keach.Stacy Keach, and then Mark Ruffalo in the middle.
0:44:21 > 0:44:24Well, let's put those answers up on the board in that order, then,
0:44:24 > 0:44:25and here they are. We have got...
0:44:30 > 0:44:31Well, three...
0:44:31 > 0:44:33They all sound feasible.
0:44:33 > 0:44:36One of them we think might even be right.
0:44:36 > 0:44:39It is a hope.If one of these turns out to be pointless,
0:44:39 > 0:44:41at least one of them turns out to be pointless, and wins you that
0:44:41 > 0:44:44jackpot, what charities are you playing for? Chris, you first.
0:44:44 > 0:44:47I am playing for Brecon and District Mind,
0:44:47 > 0:44:49who are local to me and lovely people.
0:44:49 > 0:44:51Very good, indeed. Jeff, how about you?
0:44:51 > 0:44:53I am playing for Bowel Cancer Research.
0:44:53 > 0:44:54Very good.
0:44:57 > 0:44:59Two excellent and worthy causes there.
0:44:59 > 0:45:01Let's hope one of these answers, at least, is pointless,
0:45:01 > 0:45:04which will win that jackpot for them to split.
0:45:04 > 0:45:07Your first answer is Stacy Keach. In all three cases here we were
0:45:07 > 0:45:09looking for cast members of Band Of Brothers.
0:45:09 > 0:45:11Stacy Keach. If this is right
0:45:11 > 0:45:13and it is pointless, it will win you £2,500.
0:45:13 > 0:45:15How many people said Stacy Keach?
0:45:19 > 0:45:20Oh, bad luck.
0:45:22 > 0:45:24I'm afraid not Stacy Keach.
0:45:24 > 0:45:29So let's move swiftly on to your next answer, which is Mark Ruffalo.
0:45:29 > 0:45:31Mark Ruffalo - that's a great answer.
0:45:31 > 0:45:33I mean, who knows? It's a great name!
0:45:33 > 0:45:34Great actor.
0:45:34 > 0:45:36Yeah.
0:45:36 > 0:45:39All it has to be is right. That would be nice.
0:45:39 > 0:45:42If it is right, and then it goes all the way down to zero,
0:45:42 > 0:45:44you leave here with £2,500 for your charities.
0:45:44 > 0:45:46Let's see how many people said Mark Ruffalo.
0:45:49 > 0:45:53No! Not Mark Ruffalo either, I'm afraid.
0:45:53 > 0:45:55OK, everything is now riding on your third and final answer.
0:45:55 > 0:45:58We're now on firm territory here, I think, aren't we?
0:45:58 > 0:45:59Damian Lewis.
0:45:59 > 0:46:02Your most confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:46:02 > 0:46:04If it is pointless, it will win £2,500.
0:46:04 > 0:46:06Let's see how many people said Damian Lewis.
0:46:10 > 0:46:14It's right. Now, your first answer, Stacy Keach, was not right.
0:46:14 > 0:46:16Mark Ruffalo, your second answer, was also not right.
0:46:16 > 0:46:19Damian Lewis, however, takes us down through the teens.
0:46:19 > 0:46:21We're still going down, down we go to...
0:46:21 > 0:46:23Oh, ten. We stick at ten.
0:46:26 > 0:46:29By the way, ten is a very respectable score.
0:46:29 > 0:46:32You'd be very pleased with ten at any normal part of Pointless.
0:46:32 > 0:46:35Annoyingly, in this round, we're only interested in pointless answers.
0:46:35 > 0:46:37I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that pointless answer
0:46:37 > 0:46:38you needed to win the jackpot.
0:46:38 > 0:46:41I'm afraid you DON'T win £2,500 for your charities,
0:46:41 > 0:46:42however, as it is a celebrity special,
0:46:42 > 0:46:45we're going to donate £500 to each celebrity pair
0:46:45 > 0:46:47for their respective charities. So there you are.
0:46:47 > 0:46:51It's been fabulous having you on the show, Chris and Jeff, really lovely.
0:46:51 > 0:46:54And you get to take home a Pointless trophy, so there we are.
0:46:54 > 0:46:55Fantastic.Amazing. Doesn't get better.
0:46:55 > 0:46:59What a lovely show it's been and a terrific performance to get all the way through to the final as well.
0:46:59 > 0:47:02Sorry we didn't serve you up the jackpot round that you wanted.
0:47:02 > 0:47:05You'll be kicking yourself with a lot of these Bros top 40 singles.
0:47:05 > 0:47:07You'll know all of them. Oh, no!
0:47:07 > 0:47:10Let's take a look at Bros.
0:47:10 > 0:47:12Eight pointless answers.
0:47:12 > 0:47:13You could have had...
0:47:16 > 0:47:19..Are You Mine, Madly In Love, Silent Night and Tribe.
0:47:19 > 0:47:23Very well done any Brosettes or Broseurs who got one of those.
0:47:23 > 0:47:25I think that's what they're called.
0:47:25 > 0:47:26The cast now of Band Of Brothers.
0:47:26 > 0:47:28Some very, very big names here.
0:47:35 > 0:47:38In fact, everyone in Band Of Brothers is a pointless answer,
0:47:38 > 0:47:41apart from Damian Lewis, Dexter Fletcher, David Schwimmer,
0:47:41 > 0:47:42Simon Pegg and Colin Hanks.
0:47:42 > 0:47:45Everybody else was a pointless answer.
0:47:45 > 0:47:46Now, the Klitschko brothers.
0:47:46 > 0:47:50Any boxing fans would have filled their boots with this category, I think.
0:47:50 > 0:47:53Some big names. Chris Byrd, who beat Vitali Klitschko.
0:47:53 > 0:47:55Two British fighters - Dereck Chisora and Herbie Hide.
0:47:55 > 0:47:58Also could have had Julius Francis and Danny Williams.
0:47:58 > 0:48:00Manuel Charr, a couple of other big fighters,
0:48:00 > 0:48:02Frans Botha, Ray Mercer, Shannon Briggs.
0:48:02 > 0:48:05Everybody, everybody on that entire list, apart from David Haye,
0:48:05 > 0:48:07was a pointless answer.
0:48:07 > 0:48:09So, boxing fans, very well done if you got any of those.
0:48:09 > 0:48:12Thanks very much indeed, Richard. And thanks so much, Chris and Jeff.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14We've loved having you on the show.
0:48:14 > 0:48:16Thank you so much. Chris and Jeff, wonderful, wonderful.
0:48:16 > 0:48:18Thank you.
0:48:18 > 0:48:20APPLAUSE
0:48:20 > 0:48:21Join us next time when we'll be putting
0:48:21 > 0:48:24more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:48:24 > 0:48:26Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.Goodbye.
0:48:26 > 0:48:28And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
