0:00:19 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and a very

0:00:25 > 0:00:27warm welcome to this special '80s edition of Pointless Celebrities,

0:00:27 > 0:00:29the show where the aim of the game

0:00:29 > 0:00:30is to score as few points as you can,

0:00:30 > 0:00:33and you do that by coming up with the answers

0:00:33 > 0:00:34no-one else could think of.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36Let's meet today's Pointless Celebrities.

0:00:41 > 0:00:42And couple number one.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hello, I'm Nicola Bryant,

0:00:44 > 0:00:50and my first job was playing Peri in Doctor Who in the '80s,

0:00:50 > 0:00:51and I'm still an actor.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55I'm Colin Baker, I played the sixth Doctor,

0:00:55 > 0:00:59and the fans are still out there rooting for all of us, bless them.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02APPLAUSE

0:01:04 > 0:01:05Couple number two.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08I'm Robin Cousins, and I won the men's Olympic figure skating title

0:01:08 > 0:01:10way back in February 1980.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12And I'm Fatima Whitbread,

0:01:12 > 0:01:17I won the women's javelin in 1986, European Championships,

0:01:17 > 0:01:19and broke the world record.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21APPLAUSE Hey!

0:01:24 > 0:01:25And couple number three.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28Hi, I'm Sonia, I'm a singer-entertainer,

0:01:28 > 0:01:32and I had most of my hits in 1989 with Stock Aitken Waterman.

0:01:33 > 0:01:34And I'm Jaki Graham,

0:01:34 > 0:01:38I had top five and top ten hits back in 1985 and '86.

0:01:38 > 0:01:42APPLAUSE

0:01:42 > 0:01:45And finally, couple number four.

0:01:45 > 0:01:46Hello, I'm Peter Duncan, I was a

0:01:46 > 0:01:49Blue Peter presenter in the early '80s,

0:01:49 > 0:01:51and I was in Flash Gordon then too.

0:01:51 > 0:01:52Yes. I'm Mark Curry, and I was a

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Blue Peter presenter in the late '80s,

0:01:55 > 0:01:56for about four years.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01Thanks very much, all of you.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04We will get to chat to each of you throughout the show as it goes along, of course.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10His DeLorean was clamped earlier, so he's stuck with us here tonight.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.

0:02:13 > 0:02:14Hiya.

0:02:14 > 0:02:15Hi, everybody.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17Good evening.

0:02:17 > 0:02:18Good evening to you.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21- Good evening.- The 1980s, how about this for a line-up?

0:02:21 > 0:02:24- Yeah.- At the start of the 1980s, I was at primary school.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26And at the end of the 1980s I was at university.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28- Yeah, with me.- That's weird. That's a long old decade, isn't it?

0:02:28 > 0:02:31- Wasn't it?- Blimey, that must have been, what, ten years or something?

0:02:31 > 0:02:33- Wow.- Crazy! But, yeah, look, what a line-up.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36We've got world record holders, Olympic gold medallists,

0:02:36 > 0:02:38we've got Blue Peter presenters, number one artists,

0:02:38 > 0:02:40- we've got Doctor Who, for goodness' sake!- I know.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42Thank you very much indeed. Now, as usual, all of

0:02:42 > 0:02:44today's questions have been put to 100 people before the show.

0:02:44 > 0:02:48Our contestants are looking for those all-important pointless answers,

0:02:48 > 0:02:50these being answers that none of our 100 people gave.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Find one of those, and we will add £250 to the jackpot.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55Now, as today's show is a celebrity special

0:02:55 > 0:02:57and each of our celebrities is playing for a nominated charity,

0:02:57 > 0:03:00we're going to start off with a jackpot of £2,500.

0:03:01 > 0:03:02There we are.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:03:12 > 0:03:13So remember this - the pair with the

0:03:13 > 0:03:17highest score at the end of each round will be eliminated.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Keep those scores low and you'll be fine.

0:03:19 > 0:03:20Best of luck to all four pairs.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24Our first category this evening is...

0:03:27 > 0:03:29Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:03:29 > 0:03:30who's going to go second?

0:03:30 > 0:03:33And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40OK, and the question concerns...

0:03:43 > 0:03:46- Richard.- Yeah, we're simply going to give you seven titles of songs from

0:03:46 > 0:03:48musicals on each board, and you need

0:03:48 > 0:03:50to tell us the musical they are from, please.

0:03:50 > 0:03:54We'll also give you the year that musical was first performed on the London stage.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56So, seven songs on the first board, seven on the second,

0:03:56 > 0:03:5814 musicals to guess at home.

0:03:58 > 0:03:59- Good luck.- Thanks very much indeed.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02So, we're looking for the musicals in which you would find these songs.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04Here is our first board of seven.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22I'll read those all again.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39Colin, welcome back to Pointless.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Great to have you here again. Now, when you were Doctor Who,

0:04:42 > 0:04:44I would say you were probably the most controversial

0:04:44 > 0:04:48- of all the Doctors. - What do you mean by that?!

0:04:48 > 0:04:51It's just that you arrived by shooting the previous Doctor.

0:04:51 > 0:04:52- I did.- That's a way to arrive.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54But I was playing a different character then.

0:04:54 > 0:04:55But you were quite... I'm sure,

0:04:55 > 0:04:57didn't you try and do away with Peri as well?

0:04:57 > 0:05:02Well, when I regenerated, I was a trifle unhinged.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04- Yes.- We're talking about the Doctor, not the actor, you understand.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06LAUGHTER OK, fair enough.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08- That was my logic at the time, anyway.- Yeah.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11How did this go down with the fandom?

0:05:11 > 0:05:14Well, as you might expect, it didn't go down very well at all.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16I mean, the nice thing is, the fans of Doctor Who

0:05:16 > 0:05:19are not people who take these sorts of things very seriously at all.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21No, no, no, no, no.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24So you were fine. You weren't barracked?

0:05:24 > 0:05:25Not in the slightest!

0:05:27 > 0:05:29- Now, Colin...- Anyway. - ..what about these...?

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Back to Pointless.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33What about these songs from musicals?

0:05:33 > 0:05:36I'm toying with one that I'm not too sure about,

0:05:36 > 0:05:38because it would be very good points,

0:05:38 > 0:05:43but I might become less brave and go for...

0:05:43 > 0:05:47I'll go for I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face - My Fair Lady.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50- My Fair Lady, says Colin. - Was it worth waiting for?

0:05:50 > 0:05:52It most certainly was.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Well, let's find out how many of our 100 people said My Fair Lady.

0:05:59 > 0:06:00It's right.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08APPLAUSE

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Well played, Colin. Not a bad start at all.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15That original West End cast included Rex Harrison and Julie Andrews.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Mmm. Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Now, Robin, welcome back to Pointless.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22Now, Robin, I read that your backflip

0:06:22 > 0:06:24is still the world-record holder.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28- It is.- Is that in terms of, what was it, the height, or the distance,

0:06:28 > 0:06:31- or the...?- Distance. 19 feet and a half an inch.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33Show us, Robin, come on!

0:06:33 > 0:06:34- 19 feet...- No, no, no, no.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36- Yes.- But to do that, and on ice!

0:06:36 > 0:06:38- Yeah.- With just thin blades on your feet.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40As fast as possible, and just, you know,

0:06:40 > 0:06:43cross your fingers as you go over the top.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Wow. Now, Robin, what would you like to go for on our board?

0:06:45 > 0:06:48I am actually going to go for the youngest show,

0:06:48 > 0:06:50and I'm going to go

0:06:50 > 0:06:52It Sucks To Be Me - Avenue Q.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Avenue Q.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57Let's see if that's right, Avenue Q. How many of our 100 people said it?

0:07:03 > 0:07:05It's right. Well, 23 is our only score at this point,

0:07:05 > 0:07:07and you pass 23 quite comfortably.

0:07:07 > 0:07:08Look at that.

0:07:10 > 0:07:11Very well done indeed, Robin.

0:07:13 > 0:07:14That's a terrific answer, Robin.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17Very well played. Yeah, performed by human actors alongside puppets.

0:07:17 > 0:07:22They cost about 10,000 each, those puppets, to manufacture.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25- Wow.- Yeah.- There you go. Thank you very much, Richard.

0:07:25 > 0:07:26Now, Jaki, you have...

0:07:26 > 0:07:29I mean, you had a slew of hits over here,

0:07:29 > 0:07:31but you also had a number one song

0:07:31 > 0:07:34- in the Billboard chart in the States.- Oh, you know that?

0:07:34 > 0:07:35- Didn't you?- Yes, my darling, yes.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38And I had thumbs-up from the original artist as well.

0:07:38 > 0:07:39Well, that's it, you covered Chaka Khan.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41- Chaka Khan, yes.- Ain't Nobody.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43- Yeah, that's lovely.- I mean, A, to get to number one in America,

0:07:43 > 0:07:45but also with one of their songs.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47You know something, I came out in the '80s thinking, you know,

0:07:47 > 0:07:50one-hit wonder maybe, but I'm going to embrace everything, darling,

0:07:50 > 0:07:52- I'm going to have a good time.- Yeah.

0:07:52 > 0:07:53But, yes, I ended up having a number one

0:07:53 > 0:07:58and top fives at home here in the UK, and so on, and top tens...

0:07:58 > 0:08:00So, I was here to stay.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Absolutely.- And I'm still doing my thing today.- Superb.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06What would you like to go for on our board?

0:08:06 > 0:08:07I'm going to go for...

0:08:09 > 0:08:12# You've Got to Pick A Pocket Or Two. #

0:08:12 > 0:08:16And so I'm going to have to go for that one. Oliver!, please.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18Oliver!, says Jaki, for Got To Pick A Pocket Or Two.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21Let's see if it's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said Oliver!.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Oh, shoot.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29Not bad at all. 77 for Oliver!.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32- OK.- The Artful Dodger in Hebrew is Slippery Roger.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34JAKI CHUCKLES

0:08:34 > 0:08:38OK! Mark, welcome back to Pointless.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40- Thank you.- Now, Mark, you made your first appearance on television

0:08:40 > 0:08:43- at the age of seven. - I did, not in Blue Peter.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45- Junior Showtime. - Yes, Junior Showtime.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Junior Showtime. Now, what did you do between then and Blue Peter?

0:08:49 > 0:08:51I kept on working.

0:08:51 > 0:08:52I just kept on working.

0:08:52 > 0:08:57I was very lucky, cos I left Junior Showtime in something like

0:08:57 > 0:09:011974, '75, and I wasn't cute any more,

0:09:01 > 0:09:03I was 15 years old, and I thought...

0:09:03 > 0:09:06And I remember my mum saying to me, "OK, that's it, that's it now,

0:09:06 > 0:09:08"you've got to get a proper job." And then, very luckily,

0:09:08 > 0:09:12I was offered a Saturday morning show on Yorkshire Television again,

0:09:12 > 0:09:15which led to me getting a Saturday morning show on the BBC,

0:09:15 > 0:09:19so I was part of that BBC children's programme presenters family.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21And then I got offered Blue Peter in '86.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23So is that something you then auditioned for,

0:09:23 > 0:09:24or is it something you were just offered?

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Luckily, I didn't audition.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29I think, had I auditioned, I wouldn't have got it.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Cos you had to do things like trampolining

0:09:31 > 0:09:34and make a Christmas card. He was great at that, but...

0:09:34 > 0:09:36So I was offered it because Simon Groom had been there

0:09:36 > 0:09:39a long time with Pete, and they wanted somebody the kids knew,

0:09:39 > 0:09:42- so I was offered the job. - Well, Mark, great to have you here.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44I think today is the day we'll see you through.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Do you want to talk us through that board, why not?

0:09:46 > 0:09:48OK, well, The Barber And His Wife,

0:09:48 > 0:09:52I was wondering if that could have been Sondheim's Sweeney Todd.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54Angel Of Music, I thought is that Phantom Of The Opera?

0:09:54 > 0:09:56So I'm going to go for a dead cert,

0:09:56 > 0:10:00I Feel Pretty, 1958, West Side Story.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02West Side Story, says Mark.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05Let's see how many of our 100 people went for West Side Story.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10It's right.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12Well, 77 was our high score and you pass that.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Down it goes, still going down.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19Look at that, second lowest score of the pass, Mark, for West Side Story.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22Yeah, very well played, nicely done.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25Actually, you would have done slightly better with The Barber And His Wife,

0:10:25 > 0:10:27- cos you're right, it was Sweeney Todd.- Was it?

0:10:27 > 0:10:31It would've scored you 17 points, so it would've been roughly the same.

0:10:31 > 0:10:32If I Were a Rich Man?

0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Fiddler On The Roof. - That would've scored 16.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Do you know Angel Of Music?

0:10:37 > 0:10:40- It is Phantom Of The Opera, isn't it?- Yeah, absolutely.

0:10:40 > 0:10:41And that would've scored 11 points.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44So, five points, best answer on the board, Robin, for Avenue Q.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46- Well done.- Thank you very much.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Well, we're halfway through the round, let's just take

0:10:48 > 0:10:50a little recap of those scores. Five, Robin, very well done.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52The best score of the pass.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Robin and Fatima looking very strong.

0:10:54 > 0:10:55Then up to 20, where we find Mark and Peter.

0:10:55 > 0:10:5723, Colin and Nicola.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59And 77, Jaki and Sonia.

0:10:59 > 0:11:02So, Sonia, all we need from you is a low score

0:11:02 > 0:11:04and it might be enough to keep you in the game,

0:11:04 > 0:11:05so very best of luck with that.

0:11:05 > 0:11:09We're going to come back down the line now. Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:11:12 > 0:11:15OK, let's put seven more song titles from musicals up on the board,

0:11:15 > 0:11:16and here they come.

0:11:30 > 0:11:31I'll read those again.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46- Peter.- Yes.- Welcome back. - Thank you very much.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48Good to have you here. Now, you did not one but two stints

0:11:48 > 0:11:50- on Blue Peter, didn't you?- Yes.

0:11:50 > 0:11:51What happened there?

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Had you basically decided "I'm going to move on now,"

0:11:54 > 0:11:57- and then they dragged you back in? - Well, like you being an actor,

0:11:57 > 0:12:00I decided I needed to go off and explore other fertile territory,

0:12:00 > 0:12:03and I did that, and then I came back again when the opportunity arose.

0:12:03 > 0:12:04- Well, that's nice.- Yes.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06Very nice. But the other thing, of course,

0:12:06 > 0:12:09notable thing you've done is you were Chief Scout.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11I was, I was talking to Fatima earlier about that.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14Yes, I was Chief Scout for five years, from 2007.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16That's an incredible position to hold.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19Did that come about as a result of Blue Peter, do you think?

0:12:19 > 0:12:20Not really. It really came about

0:12:20 > 0:12:23cos I made these travel docs about taking my family around the world,

0:12:23 > 0:12:25and Scouting is very much about

0:12:25 > 0:12:27exploring the world and seeing different things.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29That kind of put me in the frame for it, really.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31I was sort of vaguely headhunted, as they say,

0:12:31 > 0:12:33and then I was the last man standing, I think.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36Good for you. Now, Peter, what about this board here?

0:12:36 > 0:12:3956 would definitely keep you in the game.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41Yeah. Yeah, it's tricky.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44I think I'm going to go Do You Hear The People Sing?, Les Miserables.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46- I think that's a safe one. - Les Miserables.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48Now, there we are. Red line there.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Get below that, you're through to the next round. How many people said Les Mis?

0:12:55 > 0:12:56It's right.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59Look at that, through you go.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05Surprisingly low score there. 38 is your total.

0:13:07 > 0:13:10Yeah, the longest-running musical on he West End stage, Les Miserables.

0:13:10 > 0:13:13There we go. Sonia.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15Now, Stock Aitken Waterman.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17What was that like? I mean, what an extraordinary place to be.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19What a great stable to be part of.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21Well, it was amazing, you know,

0:13:21 > 0:13:23it was, literally... We were called the Hit Factory,

0:13:23 > 0:13:25which is what it was, you know?

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Every day we'd come in, pass people, and we'd all go in and do our hits.

0:13:29 > 0:13:33It was a remarkable, remarkable time to be part of that, you know?

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Was it...? I mean, did it feel remarkable to be...?

0:13:35 > 0:13:38Cos some of these things were just done in 20 minutes.

0:13:38 > 0:13:39Did it feel like a conveyor belt,

0:13:39 > 0:13:42or did it feel like you were right at the cutting edge,

0:13:42 > 0:13:43- or a bit of both? - Oh, right at the cutting edge.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46You know, to be so young and involved in all that,

0:13:46 > 0:13:49and the process was amazing, but unbelievable.

0:13:49 > 0:13:53I mean, everything they touched just turned to gold, you know, everything they did.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Fabulous. Anyway, listen, you're the high-scorers

0:13:55 > 0:13:58- at the moment, Sonia, on 77. - Yes.- We need a low score from you.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00How are you feeling about this board?

0:14:00 > 0:14:01Well, I do know quite a few of them,

0:14:01 > 0:14:05but I'm going to go for something I'm not too sure about.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08I'm going to go for Jesus Christ Superstar - The Crucifixion.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11OK. It stands to reason, surely, The Crucifixion.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14Let's see if that's right. No red lines for you, as you're the high-scorers.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16But how many people said Jesus Christ Superstar?

0:14:19 > 0:14:20It's right.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Look at that, 33. Very well done indeed.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30It takes your total up to a nice neat 110.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Well played, Sonia. Giving yourself a chance there.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34Yeah, by Andrew Lloyd Webber and the wonderful Tim Rice.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Thanks very much indeed.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Fatima, welcome back.

0:14:38 > 0:14:39Tell me first about the javelin.

0:14:39 > 0:14:42Where did you first throw, and who spotted you first?

0:14:42 > 0:14:44I mean, what was the opportunity for you there?

0:14:44 > 0:14:47I watched Mary Peters win the pentathlon,

0:14:47 > 0:14:50which is now the heptathlon, in Munich.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53That was my chosen sport, really,

0:14:53 > 0:14:57I suppose, that's where I wanted to sort of thrive and do well.

0:14:57 > 0:15:01So I, fortunately, was adopted by the Whitbread family at 14,

0:15:01 > 0:15:04and it took me 12 years before...

0:15:04 > 0:15:05It's a long apprenticeship.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08..12 years before I actually won my first major title,

0:15:08 > 0:15:10which was in 1986.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13I actually broke the world record in the qualifying round,

0:15:13 > 0:15:16and a lot of people said, "Oh, you got the wrong day.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19"Nobody's ever gone back the next day and won."

0:15:19 > 0:15:22So I kind of had to sit it out all night long, go back the next day,

0:15:22 > 0:15:27and of course I broke the world record, the old world record again,

0:15:27 > 0:15:29only to be beaten by the distance that I'd thrown the day before,

0:15:29 > 0:15:33so, having won the European title as well.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36- So it was quite an achievement in that one weekend, yeah.- Fantastic.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38Fantastic.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42Now, what are you going to go for on that board?

0:15:42 > 0:15:44I would go for Luck Be A Lady,

0:15:44 > 0:15:47and I'm not sure if I'm saying this right, but that's Sinatra.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50OK, you're going to say Sinatra for Luck Be A Lady.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53There's no red line for you, Fatima, you're already through,

0:15:53 > 0:15:54- so it doesn't matter what you score here.- OK.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57Let's see how far down the column we get with Sinatra.

0:16:00 > 0:16:02Not Sinatra.

0:16:02 > 0:16:04That scores 100 points, takes your total up to 105,

0:16:04 > 0:16:06but you're through anyway.

0:16:06 > 0:16:07Sorry about that.

0:16:07 > 0:16:11- Yeah, safely through.- I'll give all the correct answers at the end of the pass.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13- Thank you.- Thanks very much indeed.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Now, then, Nicola.

0:16:15 > 0:16:16Welcome back to Pointless.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18- Thank you.- Now, I was hearing,

0:16:18 > 0:16:20when you auditioned for Doctor Who, I mean,

0:16:20 > 0:16:22extraordinarily enough, you auditioned as an American,

0:16:22 > 0:16:24which you weren't.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26You auditioned as a member of Equity, which you weren't.

0:16:26 > 0:16:30You auditioned as somebody who said they could swim, which you couldn't.

0:16:30 > 0:16:35I mean, the web of deceit, Nicola, that you spun around yourself.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37But, I mean, you landed the part.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Yeah. But the American thing, did the mask ever slip?

0:16:39 > 0:16:41How long did you keep that ball in the air?

0:16:41 > 0:16:44Well, my... I was approached by an agent.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47I was doing Gigi at Webber Douglas, and he'd seen me,

0:16:47 > 0:16:49and we were doing the...

0:16:49 > 0:16:51No, doing No, No, Nanette, we did the American score.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53- Yeah.- So I was playing an American,

0:16:53 > 0:16:56and he wrote me down as American actress.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59So then he phoned me up to put me up for the part.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01And when he found out I wasn't American, he said,

0:17:01 > 0:17:05"Well, look, they're only seeing Americans and Canadians.

0:17:05 > 0:17:06"But you're so good at this,

0:17:06 > 0:17:09"I'm going to slip you in under the radar,

0:17:09 > 0:17:11"and if you get it, I'll take you on as an agent."

0:17:11 > 0:17:13And then I'm going on breakfast TV,

0:17:13 > 0:17:15so that's my first job, and I'm going,

0:17:15 > 0:17:17"I'm not going on with an American accent!"

0:17:17 > 0:17:20And he went, "Could you just go on with an American accent?"

0:17:20 > 0:17:23And I was like, "What if somebody rings in?!"

0:17:23 > 0:17:25Anyone who knows me.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27- For example.- Exactly.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Yeah. Now, then, you're on 23.

0:17:29 > 0:17:33This is exciting. The high-scorers are on 110, Sonia and Jaki.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35We need a score of 86 or less from you.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38Well, Luck Be A Lady Tonight, Guys And Dolls, I think,

0:17:38 > 0:17:41and Climb Every Mountain - The Sound Of Music.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44I'm humming a tune that sort of fits the words

0:17:44 > 0:17:45Can You Feel the Love Tonight,

0:17:45 > 0:17:49but doesn't quite, so I think I may be singing a pop song!

0:17:49 > 0:17:52I think more people are likely to know

0:17:52 > 0:17:55The Sound Of Music than the Guys And Dolls,

0:17:55 > 0:17:58so I'll go for Luck Be A Lady.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00- Which is...- Guys And Dolls. - Guys And Dolls.

0:18:00 > 0:18:03Here is your red line. If you get below that with Guys And Dolls, you are into Round Two.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06How many people said Guys And Dolls?

0:18:08 > 0:18:10Well done! Perfect.

0:18:14 > 0:18:15That's a great answer. 14.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18Second lowest score of the entire round,

0:18:18 > 0:18:21taking your total up to 37, the lowest total of the whole round.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23- Very well done.- Nicely done, Nicola.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26You chose the right one of the ones you knew cos you're right about The Sound Of Music,

0:18:26 > 0:18:29but would have scored you more points for Climb Every Mountain.

0:18:29 > 0:18:32- It would've scored 68.- Wow.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34Now, Can You Feel The Love Tonight is from...?

0:18:34 > 0:18:37- The Lion King.- I don't know if it was the song you were thinking of.

0:18:37 > 0:18:3935 points for that.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Electricity, down the bottom, was from...?

0:18:43 > 0:18:45- Billy Elliot.- Billy Elliot. Yep, absolutely.

0:18:45 > 0:18:46That would've scored you 7.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48Do you know The Chokey Chant?

0:18:48 > 0:18:49Well, chokey was a form of punishment.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Oh, I know exactly, it's Matilda.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53Exactly right. Miss Trunchbull.

0:18:53 > 0:18:572 points for that. It's the best answer on the board, so very well done if you said that.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00Thank you very much indeed. So, at the end of our first round,

0:19:00 > 0:19:01the pair who are heading home

0:19:01 > 0:19:03with their high score of 110, I can't bear it,

0:19:03 > 0:19:05- it's Sonia and Jaki.- Sorry. - Never mind.- I'm so sorry.

0:19:05 > 0:19:08- Far too soon to be sending you home. - I have had a good time, though.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11It's been lovely having you. Thank you so much for playing.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13Please come and play again. I'm sure you'll go much further next time,

0:19:13 > 0:19:16but, in the meantime, thanks so much. Sonia and Jaki.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18APPLAUSE

0:19:20 > 0:19:22But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29And so, suddenly, we're down to three pairs.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31It's just what happens, I'm afraid, on Pointless.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33Best of luck to all three pairs.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36Our category for Round Two this evening is...

0:19:38 > 0:19:39Ooh-er, it's a words round.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going second?

0:19:42 > 0:19:43Where do you want to go?

0:19:43 > 0:19:47- I don't mind.- And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51OK, let's find out what the question is.

0:19:51 > 0:19:56Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many

0:19:56 > 0:20:01words ending in E-C-K as they could.

0:20:01 > 0:20:03E-C-K, Richard.

0:20:03 > 0:20:07Yeah, just looking for any word which has its own entry in the British and world English

0:20:07 > 0:20:10section of oxforddictionaries.com that ends E-C-K.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12No proper nouns, no hyphenated words.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15- Very best of luck.- There we are, thank you very much indeed.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18Now, then, Nicola, it's always tough going first...

0:20:18 > 0:20:20- Oh, yes.- ..on one of these rounds.

0:20:20 > 0:20:21Rubberneck.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25To rubberneck! It's what people... Absolutely!

0:20:25 > 0:20:26Surely! Rubberneck.

0:20:26 > 0:20:29Let's see how many of our 100 people said rubberneck.

0:20:32 > 0:20:34It's right!

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Look at that, 1!

0:20:41 > 0:20:42Look at that!

0:20:44 > 0:20:46Very well done indeed! Rubberneck's an excellent answer.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48Yeah, well played, Nicola, terrific answer.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51To rubberneck, yeah, it means to look at something...

0:20:51 > 0:20:53..that you shouldn't really be looking at, maybe.

0:20:53 > 0:20:57- Yes, take a prurient interest in something.- Yes.- There we are.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Now, Robin.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02Mm. Just going to go for a nice easy one.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04I give my friend...

0:21:04 > 0:21:06..a peck.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08Peck. That's nice.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10Let's see how many of our 100 people said peck.

0:21:17 > 0:21:1861 for peck.

0:21:20 > 0:21:24Yeah, a big scorer. It means, obviously, what a bird does.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26It also can mean a very small amount. A peck of something.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Thank you very much indeed.

0:21:30 > 0:21:31Now, then, Peter.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35I'm going to go for the word fleck.

0:21:35 > 0:21:37Fleck.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39Let's see how many of our 100 people said fleck.

0:21:41 > 0:21:42Is it a word?

0:21:44 > 0:21:46Come on! Nought!

0:21:48 > 0:21:4938.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53Not bad at all.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55Yeah, a small patch of colour of light, fleck.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59- Thank you very much.- Pleasure. - We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.

0:21:59 > 0:22:021, Nicola, let's not forget that, shall we?

0:22:02 > 0:22:051, what an amazing, lovely low score rubberneck was.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07Now, 38 is where we find Peter and Mark.

0:22:07 > 0:22:0961 is where we find Robin and Fatima.

0:22:09 > 0:22:11Who knows what's good to happen in the next pass,

0:22:11 > 0:22:13but, Fatima, you are currently the high-scorers.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16A lovely low score from you would be excellent right now.

0:22:16 > 0:22:17We're going to come back down the line in now.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:22:23 > 0:22:27OK, Mark, remember, it's words ending E-C-K.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30OK, well, I can only think of wreck

0:22:30 > 0:22:32cos I am actually a wreck right now!

0:22:32 > 0:22:34OK, wreck, says Mark.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36Wreck. Here is your red line.

0:22:36 > 0:22:37If you get below that red line,

0:22:37 > 0:22:39Mark, you are through to the next round.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42Let's see how far we get down the column with wreck.

0:22:44 > 0:22:45It's right.

0:22:48 > 0:22:49Not bad, 54 for wreck.

0:22:51 > 0:22:5392 is your total.

0:22:54 > 0:22:58Yeah, to destroy, or something that is destroyed, wreck.

0:22:58 > 0:22:59Thank you very much.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02Now, Fatima, what would you like to go for?

0:23:02 > 0:23:07I guess, if I'm looking into the distance when I'm going to throw,

0:23:07 > 0:23:09I would see a speck.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12A speck. A speck.

0:23:12 > 0:23:13OK, here is your red line.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16If you can get below that with speck, you're through to the next round.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18Let's see how many of our 100 people said speck.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Oh, you've done it! Look at that, 28!

0:23:27 > 0:23:29You needed 30, you got 28.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31Very well done indeed.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34The far distance helped you out there, 89 is your total.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36Yeah, a tiny spot, like a small fleck.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Yeah. Now, Colin.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43If you can score 90 or less, Colin, you're through to the next round.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45Shall I be very brave?

0:23:45 > 0:23:48- Yes!- I think it's one word -

0:23:48 > 0:23:51- quarterdeck.- Let's see, quarterdeck.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Is that right? How many of our 100 people said quarterdeck?

0:23:53 > 0:23:54There is your red line.

0:23:57 > 0:23:58It's right. And you're through.

0:24:02 > 0:24:04Oh, this is good.

0:24:04 > 0:24:08It's very good indeed, Colin, look at that, it's a pointless answer! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:24:08 > 0:24:11Which means it adds £250 to today's jackpot,

0:24:11 > 0:24:15takes the total up to £2,750, it scores you nothing,

0:24:15 > 0:24:19and it leaves your already impressive low total of 1 at 1.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21Beautiful work, Colin. Very well done.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23That's what happens when you get Doctor Who on the show.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26- I know!- It's the part of a ship where the officers are stationed,

0:24:26 > 0:24:29on the quarterdeck. Let's have a look at the pointless answers,

0:24:29 > 0:24:32cos there's a few words that we'll all know here.

0:24:32 > 0:24:33Not so much first board.

0:24:33 > 0:24:36Aleck, which is an Australian word for someone who's a fool.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38Hatcheck was a pointless answer.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Littleneck.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43Some big words here, though. Namecheck was a pointless answer.

0:24:43 > 0:24:47Paycheck a pointless answer, and quarterdeck, we just heard that.

0:24:47 > 0:24:48Mm.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52- Roughneck. Soundcheck is a pointless answer!- Oh!

0:24:52 > 0:24:56And spellcheck as well, which would have been a lovely one.

0:24:56 > 0:24:59Thank you very much indeed, Richard. So, at the end of our second round,

0:24:59 > 0:25:02the pair who are heading home with their high score of 92, I'm afraid, Mark and Peter, it is you.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05- Bye-bye!- Fleck and wreck did for you.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Oh, no, but it's been lovely having you here again.

0:25:07 > 0:25:08Please come and play another time.

0:25:08 > 0:25:11- Yes!- And we will see you into the head-to-head, I think, next time.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14And then the time after that, maybe into the final, if we're lucky.

0:25:14 > 0:25:16- We won't last that long! - Anyway, it's been lovely having you.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Thank you so much for playing. Mark and Peter, brilliant.

0:25:19 > 0:25:22- Thank you.- Bye! - APPLAUSE

0:25:22 > 0:25:25But for Fatima and Robin, Colin and Nicola,

0:25:25 > 0:25:26it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33Congratulations, Colin and Nicola, Fatima and Robin,

0:25:33 > 0:25:35you are now one step closer to the final,

0:25:35 > 0:25:37and a chance to play for our jackpot,

0:25:37 > 0:25:41which currently stands at £2,750.

0:25:41 > 0:25:42There we are.

0:25:43 > 0:25:44This is exciting.

0:25:44 > 0:25:46Now, we have reached the point when we have to decide

0:25:46 > 0:25:49who goes through to the final to play for that jackpot,

0:25:49 > 0:25:51and we do it by making you go head-to-head.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53It's very exciting, because from here on in,

0:25:53 > 0:25:55you can start playing as teams,

0:25:55 > 0:25:57you can confer before you give your answers,

0:25:57 > 0:25:58all is generally marvellous.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:26:01 > 0:26:04Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12Here is your first question, and it concerns...

0:26:13 > 0:26:16Films of the 1980s, Richard.

0:26:16 > 0:26:19Yeah, we're going to show you five sets of pictures now which provide

0:26:19 > 0:26:22visual clues to the titles of films from the 1980s.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24Can you tell us what the films are, please?

0:26:24 > 0:26:26We will also give you their year of release.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29Excellent. OK, so let's reveal our five pictorial clues.

0:26:29 > 0:26:30And here they are.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04There we go, five clues for you.

0:27:04 > 0:27:07Colin and Nicola, you're our low-scorers, so you will go first.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09Feel free to confer.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11Right, OK,

0:27:11 > 0:27:14we're going for D, Caddyshack.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17D, Caddyshack, say Colin and Nicola.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19Now, then, Fatima and Robin,

0:27:19 > 0:27:21that board is all yours.

0:27:21 > 0:27:23Do you want to talk us through it?

0:27:23 > 0:27:24- ROBIN:- B is Beetlejuice.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27- Beetlejuice, yeah.- E is Karate Kid.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31And C is The Breakfast Club.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35A, not sure enough about, so...

0:27:35 > 0:27:37- What do you want to go for?- C or E?

0:27:37 > 0:27:40We're going to go with C, we're going to go with Breakfast Club.

0:27:40 > 0:27:45OK, Breakfast Club for C, say Fatima and Robin.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47So we have Caddyshack and we have The Breakfast Club

0:27:47 > 0:27:50Now, Colin and Nicola said Caddyshack for D.

0:27:50 > 0:27:52Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.

0:27:55 > 0:27:56It's right.

0:27:59 > 0:28:00Down it goes...

0:28:00 > 0:28:02That's not bad at all, 29 for Caddyshack.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10Fatima and Robin, meanwhile, have gone for The Breakfast Club for C.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17It's right.

0:28:20 > 0:28:21Oh, look at that, it wins!

0:28:21 > 0:28:25Very well done indeed, 18 for The Breakfast Club.

0:28:25 > 0:28:26Well done, Fatima and Robin.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29After one question, you're up 1-0.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31You picked very well of the ones you knew.

0:28:31 > 0:28:34You were right about Karate Kid, but it would not have won you the point,

0:28:34 > 0:28:38cos Karate Kid scores you 46.

0:28:38 > 0:28:40You were right about Beetlejuice as well.

0:28:40 > 0:28:43That's actually the highest-scorer on the board, would've scored 77.

0:28:43 > 0:28:45Now, I think both teams couldn't get the first one.

0:28:45 > 0:28:48- It actually took me... - It took me a long time to get it.

0:28:48 > 0:28:51But as soon as you see it... It's a very big film from the '80s.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53- It's Dirty Dancing.- Dirty Dancing.

0:28:53 > 0:28:57And that would've scored 31 points.

0:28:57 > 0:29:00Thank you there much. Now, here comes your second question.

0:29:00 > 0:29:02Now, then, Colin and Nicola, you don't answer this one first,

0:29:02 > 0:29:04Fatima and Robin get to do that,

0:29:04 > 0:29:07but you have to win this one to stay in the game, so very best of luck.

0:29:07 > 0:29:10- We do, don't we?- Our second question is all about...

0:29:14 > 0:29:17- Richard.- Yeah, simply going to show you five clues now to facts

0:29:17 > 0:29:20about the violin, and whoever gives us the most obscure answer wins the point.

0:29:20 > 0:29:21Thanks very much indeed.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24Let's reveal our five clues. And here they come.

0:29:43 > 0:29:44I'll read those all again.

0:30:02 > 0:30:03There we are.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05Now, Fatima and Robin will go first.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11- ROBIN:- You want to do it? - You go, go for it.

0:30:11 > 0:30:13We are going to go for the Italian composer who wrote

0:30:13 > 0:30:16the famous violin concertos, and that's Vivaldi.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18Vivaldi, say Fatima and Robin.

0:30:18 > 0:30:20Vivaldi. Now, Colin and Nicola,

0:30:20 > 0:30:22this is the one you have to win to stay in the game.

0:30:22 > 0:30:25Would you like to talk us through the board?

0:30:25 > 0:30:29- Well, we...- Yes. - The first one is Sherlock Holmes.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31We think the third one is probably Yehudi Menuhin.

0:30:31 > 0:30:34Number of strings, not entirely sure.

0:30:34 > 0:30:35I think it's five...

0:30:35 > 0:30:37- NICOLA LAUGHS - Or six! Five or six.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40- And then...- Maybe Yehudi Menuhin?

0:30:40 > 0:30:42Yes, he had American citizenship.

0:30:42 > 0:30:45- You're an American, you should know! - I should know! I know all things.

0:30:45 > 0:30:47Go on, then, you say it.

0:30:47 > 0:30:49- OK...- And then, if we're wrong, it's your fault!

0:30:49 > 0:30:51- AMERICAN ACCENT:- OK, we're going to go for, like,

0:30:51 > 0:30:52the American-born violin virtuoso

0:30:52 > 0:30:57awarded an honorary knighthood in 1965 - Yehudi Menuhin.

0:30:57 > 0:30:59Yehudi Menuhin, say Colin and Nicola.

0:30:59 > 0:31:01So, we have Vivaldi, and we have Yehudi Menuhin.

0:31:01 > 0:31:02Fatima and Robin went for Vivaldi.

0:31:02 > 0:31:05Let's see if that's right for the composer.

0:31:08 > 0:31:09It is Vivaldi.

0:31:12 > 0:31:1355 for Vivaldi.

0:31:16 > 0:31:18Colin and Nicola have gone for Yehudi Menuhin.

0:31:18 > 0:31:21Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:31:23 > 0:31:26It is Yehudi Menuhin, very well done indeed.

0:31:26 > 0:31:30And that keeps you in the game, exactly what you needed it to do.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32Down it goes to 12! Very well done indeed.

0:31:32 > 0:31:34After two questions, it is 1-1.

0:31:36 > 0:31:39Yeah, and both questions have been won by the best answer on the board as well,

0:31:39 > 0:31:40so great head-to-head.

0:31:40 > 0:31:44The fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes, 61 points for that.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47The nursery rhyme, it was Old King Cole.

0:31:47 > 0:31:50Also would have won you the point, would have scored 38.

0:31:50 > 0:31:52And if you'd had to go for five or six, what would you have gone for?

0:31:52 > 0:31:54- Six.- It's four.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56LAUGHTER

0:31:56 > 0:31:59And that would have scored you, rather aptly, 44.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02Thank you very much indeed. So, here comes your third question.

0:32:02 > 0:32:05Whoever wins this one goes through to the final and plays for that

0:32:05 > 0:32:07jackpot, so best of luck to both pairs.

0:32:07 > 0:32:10Our third question today is all about...

0:32:13 > 0:32:16- Richard.- Yeah, we're going to show you five traditional nicknames of

0:32:16 > 0:32:19countries now. We're also to give you the first letter of those countries.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22Can you give us the most obscure country, please?

0:32:22 > 0:32:24Whichever team does is going through to play for that jackpot.

0:32:24 > 0:32:27- Best of luck.- OK, thanks very much.

0:32:27 > 0:32:30Let's reveal our five nicknames, and here they come.

0:32:52 > 0:32:53There we go.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55Colin and Nicola will go first.

0:32:56 > 0:33:00Well, we're only sure of three, which are all,

0:33:00 > 0:33:03most people would be sure of, I think.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05So we've got to choose one of them.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07And we're going to choose the Land of Fire and Ice, are we?

0:33:07 > 0:33:09- Yes, that's fine.- Shall we?- Yes.

0:33:10 > 0:33:13- Iceland. - Iceland, say Colin and Nicola.

0:33:13 > 0:33:14Iceland, for the Land of Fire and Ice.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16Now, then, Fatima and Robin, that board is all yours.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18Talk us through it if you can.

0:33:18 > 0:33:22- OK.- What we're saying is the Great White North is Canada.

0:33:22 > 0:33:26And we think the Pearl of the Orient Seas is the Philippines.

0:33:26 > 0:33:28Philippines, yeah.

0:33:28 > 0:33:30Do you have you any idea for the Land of the Thunder Dragon?

0:33:30 > 0:33:32Emerald Isle, Ireland.

0:33:32 > 0:33:34Yeah. I'm not sure...

0:33:34 > 0:33:36Which one do you want to go?

0:33:36 > 0:33:38I think we'll go for the Orient Seas. Yeah?

0:33:38 > 0:33:40What would you say?

0:33:40 > 0:33:43- Yeah, go ahead, then. - The Pearl of Orient Seas...

0:33:44 > 0:33:46- Is the Philippines.- Philippines.

0:33:46 > 0:33:49The Philippines, the Pearl of the Orient Seas. The Philippines.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52So, we have Iceland versus the Philippines.

0:33:52 > 0:33:55Colin and Nicola have gone for Iceland, the Land of Fire and Ice.

0:33:55 > 0:33:58Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.

0:33:59 > 0:34:00It's right.

0:34:00 > 0:34:02Look at that, 81.

0:34:03 > 0:34:06Yeah, it's very right, is the answer to that.

0:34:06 > 0:34:08Now, Fatima and Robin...

0:34:09 > 0:34:12..have taken a bit of a punt on the Philippines.

0:34:12 > 0:34:17Let's see if that's right for the Pearl of the Orient Seas.

0:34:17 > 0:34:19- No.- It is right! COLIN:- Well done!

0:34:19 > 0:34:22- And it wins you the point, look at that.- Yes!- Very well done indeed.

0:34:22 > 0:34:24- Wow.- Down it goes.

0:34:24 > 0:34:27Great answer, 9 for the Philippines.

0:34:27 > 0:34:32And that means, Fatima and Robin, after three questions,

0:34:32 > 0:34:33you are through to the final 2-1.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35Terrific head-to-head, well played, both teams.

0:34:35 > 0:34:38There is an answer that would have beaten the Philippines.

0:34:38 > 0:34:41It's not The Great White North, because that, of course, is Canada.

0:34:41 > 0:34:43It's a big scorer, would've scored you 61.

0:34:43 > 0:34:45The Emerald Isle, what do you think the Emerald Isle scored?

0:34:45 > 0:34:47It's Ireland, of course.

0:34:47 > 0:34:49- 92.- 97.

0:34:49 > 0:34:5197 points.

0:34:51 > 0:34:54And the best answer on the board is the Land...

0:34:54 > 0:34:55And also the best nickname,

0:34:55 > 0:34:57to be honest. If you want to come from any country,

0:34:57 > 0:34:59you want to come from the Land of the Thunder Dragon.

0:34:59 > 0:35:02It's not Belgium, is it? LAUGHTER

0:35:02 > 0:35:06It's got a dragon on its flag, so some people might have got it.

0:35:06 > 0:35:07- It's Bhutan.- Oh, it's Bhutan!

0:35:07 > 0:35:10And that would've scored you 4 points, so very well done at home if you got that.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12Very nice. There we are, thank you very much indeed.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head, I'm afraid,

0:35:15 > 0:35:19Colin and Nicola. What an impressive performance that has been!

0:35:19 > 0:35:21But you came up against Fatima and Robin in this round and...

0:35:21 > 0:35:24- They're winners.- There was no stopping them, I'm afraid.

0:35:24 > 0:35:26- Winner all the way through. - We have to say goodbye to you.

0:35:26 > 0:35:28We'll see you again next time, I hope, Colin and Nicola.

0:35:28 > 0:35:31Thanks so much for playing, meantime, though. Colin and Nicola.

0:35:31 > 0:35:33APPLAUSE

0:35:33 > 0:35:36- Good luck, good luck. - But for Fatima and Robin,

0:35:36 > 0:35:38it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:42 > 0:35:43Well, congratulations, Fatima and Robin.

0:35:43 > 0:35:45You have fought off all the competition,

0:35:45 > 0:35:48and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56You now have the chance to win our Pointless jackpot for your charities.

0:35:56 > 0:36:01And at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £2,750.

0:36:01 > 0:36:02Wonderful!

0:36:04 > 0:36:06Well, I think this is only fitting.

0:36:06 > 0:36:08It is right and proper, you know,

0:36:08 > 0:36:10you each won a gold medal in the 1980s,

0:36:10 > 0:36:14and here you are winning a Pointless trophy in the 20-teens.

0:36:14 > 0:36:16It just seems entirely poetic and right.

0:36:16 > 0:36:20What would you like to see come up in this last round?

0:36:20 > 0:36:21- Some '80s sport.- Something we know.

0:36:21 > 0:36:24- Yeah!- Yeah, good.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26Today's selection looks like this.

0:36:26 > 0:36:27We've got...

0:36:35 > 0:36:38We could do rebels in popular culture.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40- I think so, yeah. - OK, rebels in popular culture.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42Rebels in popular culture it is.

0:36:42 > 0:36:44- Rich.- OK, very best of luck. Three very different questions here.

0:36:44 > 0:36:47We are looking for...

0:36:47 > 0:36:50..any feature film made for cinema release that starred Rebel Wilson,

0:36:50 > 0:36:53according to IMDb. So any film that Rebel Wilson is in.

0:36:53 > 0:36:58Any cast member of the film Rebel Without A Cause from 1955.

0:36:58 > 0:37:01Or we're looking for any city that was visited by Madonna

0:37:01 > 0:37:03on her Rebel Heart Tour.

0:37:03 > 0:37:05It was a big worldwide tour, the Rebel Heart Tour.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07She visited all sorts of cities.

0:37:07 > 0:37:10We're looking for any city that Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour visited.

0:37:10 > 0:37:12So Rebel Wilson films, cast of Rebel Without A Cause,

0:37:12 > 0:37:15or any of the many cities visited worldwide by Madonna

0:37:15 > 0:37:16on her Rebel Heart Tour.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19This is all up to March 2016.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Thanks very much. Now, as always,

0:37:21 > 0:37:23you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:37:23 > 0:37:26All you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those answers to be

0:37:26 > 0:37:28pointless. Are you ready?

0:37:28 > 0:37:31- Yes.- Yes.- OK, let put 60 seconds up on the clock.

0:37:31 > 0:37:33There they are. Your time starts now.

0:37:35 > 0:37:39So if you want to do Rebel Wilson films, you could do Pitch Perfect.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41Or if you went Pitch Perfect 2,

0:37:41 > 0:37:43or you could do Bridesmaids 2.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46Whether people would go for the 2.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48That makes them possibly more obscure.

0:37:49 > 0:37:53- Cast of Rebel Without A Cause. - That's James Dean.

0:37:53 > 0:37:56- That's about it for me, I don't know who else was in that. - No, honestly, I can't.

0:37:56 > 0:37:59The cities and city states on Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour.

0:37:59 > 0:38:01If you went...

0:38:02 > 0:38:03Cities and city states?

0:38:03 > 0:38:06You could pick somewhere like Vancouver.

0:38:06 > 0:38:09- Yeah.- You've got all the American cities.- There's lots of states.

0:38:09 > 0:38:12Cities and city states.

0:38:13 > 0:38:14So Washington, but then...

0:38:16 > 0:38:18What do you want to do?

0:38:18 > 0:38:20- Two films, and one Madonna?- Yeah.

0:38:20 > 0:38:22We'll just pick two big...

0:38:22 > 0:38:25- Ten seconds left.- Two of the films.

0:38:25 > 0:38:28Two films and one city? Which city do you want? Pick a city.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31Vancouver? Yeah, Vancouver.

0:38:31 > 0:38:33- OK.- OK, well, there you are,

0:38:33 > 0:38:35sounds like you've arrived at your three answers

0:38:35 > 0:38:38just as your time runs out. What are your three answers going to be?

0:38:38 > 0:38:40And if you could say which categories you're answering.

0:38:40 > 0:38:44- Robin will speak.- We'll take two from the Rebel Wilson films.

0:38:44 > 0:38:46- Yeah.- The first one being Pitch Perfect 2.

0:38:46 > 0:38:49- Pitch Perfect 2. - And we'll do Bridesmaids 2.

0:38:49 > 0:38:51And Bridesmaids 2.

0:38:51 > 0:38:54- ROBIN CHUCKLES - And then we're going to take cities

0:38:54 > 0:38:56on the Madonna Rebel Heart Tour,

0:38:56 > 0:38:58- and we've...- Vancouver.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00- Vancouver.- Vancouver.- Brilliant.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02Of those three, which do you think is your best shot

0:39:02 > 0:39:04at a pointless answer?

0:39:06 > 0:39:09Pick one of the Rebel Wilson films.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11- Pitch Perfect 2, shall we put that one last?- Sure.

0:39:11 > 0:39:12OK, least likely to be pointless?

0:39:12 > 0:39:15- Vancouver.- Bridesmaids 2.

0:39:15 > 0:39:16Bridesmaids 2. OK.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18- And Vancouver in the middle. - Sure.- OK, there we are,

0:39:18 > 0:39:21we'll put those up on the board in that order, then. And here they are.

0:39:21 > 0:39:22We've got...

0:39:26 > 0:39:29Well, very, very best of luck. Three good answers on the board.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32Any one of those might be pointless and might win that jackpot for you.

0:39:32 > 0:39:35£2,750.

0:39:35 > 0:39:36Which charities are you playing for?

0:39:36 > 0:39:42- Fatima.- Kids Inspire, which help develop underprivileged children,

0:39:42 > 0:39:44which is based in Chelmsford in Essex.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47- Very good. Robin? - I'm working for the Star Trust,

0:39:47 > 0:39:50which does something very similar in the east coast, working

0:39:50 > 0:39:52with children who want to better themselves

0:39:52 > 0:39:55- anywhere in the BN2 area code.- Fantastic.

0:39:55 > 0:39:58Well... APPLAUSE

0:39:58 > 0:40:00Two wonderful charities there.

0:40:00 > 0:40:04Let hope one of these answers will win that jackpot for those charities.

0:40:04 > 0:40:07Three good answers, I say. Your first answer was Bridesmaids 2.

0:40:07 > 0:40:09In this case, we were looking for Rebel Wilson films.

0:40:09 > 0:40:12This has to be correct, then it has to be pointless for you to win

0:40:12 > 0:40:14the jackpot. So, for £2,750,

0:40:14 > 0:40:18let's find out how many of our 100 people said Bridesmaids 2.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27An incorrect answer there, I'm afraid.

0:40:27 > 0:40:30Which means only two more shots at today's jackpot.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32Vancouver is your next answer.

0:40:32 > 0:40:36In this case, we were looking for cities or city states included in

0:40:36 > 0:40:38Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour.

0:40:38 > 0:40:40Vancouver has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.

0:40:40 > 0:40:43It also has to be correct, let's not forget.

0:40:43 > 0:40:46Let's see how many of our 100 people said Vancouver.

0:40:46 > 0:40:48For £2,750, could it be pointless?

0:40:52 > 0:40:53It's right.

0:40:53 > 0:40:55Now, your first answer, Bridesmaids 2,

0:40:55 > 0:40:57was an incorrect answer.

0:40:57 > 0:41:00Vancouver for Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour,

0:41:00 > 0:41:02now takes us down into single figures.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04Still going down, down it goes. Looks like you've done it.

0:41:04 > 0:41:06You have! Very well done indeed!

0:41:06 > 0:41:09APPLAUSE

0:41:09 > 0:41:12- Absolutely brilliant. - Thank you very much.- Well done, you.

0:41:12 > 0:41:14Superb!

0:41:18 > 0:41:19What about that?

0:41:19 > 0:41:22Congratulations, Vancouver was a pointless answer,

0:41:22 > 0:41:24which means you go home with that jackpot of £2,750

0:41:24 > 0:41:27for your charities. Very well done.

0:41:27 > 0:41:29APPLAUSE

0:41:33 > 0:41:36Just time after time, sports people know how to win.

0:41:36 > 0:41:37They just do it, they find a way.

0:41:37 > 0:41:41Was Vancouver a very last-minute thought as well for that?

0:41:41 > 0:41:43That's the one where all the pointless answers are.

0:41:43 > 0:41:45Pitch Perfect 2 would've scored 12 points.

0:41:45 > 0:41:48The Pitch Perfect films are brilliant, have you seen them?

0:41:48 > 0:41:51- No.- Oh, you'd love them. They're great, aren't they? Really, really funny films.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54Now, let's go through the pointless answers in the different categories.

0:41:54 > 0:41:58The Madonna one is where there's loads and loads and loads, but we'll start with Rebel Wilson.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03Ice Age: Continental Drift, that she is a voice actor in.

0:42:03 > 0:42:06What To Expect When You're Expecting also a pointless answer.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09Also, A Few Best Men, Fat Pizza, Pain & Gain, Small Apartments

0:42:09 > 0:42:10and Struck By Lightning.

0:42:10 > 0:42:12All of those were pointless answers.

0:42:12 > 0:42:14Now, the cast of Rebel Without A Cause.

0:42:14 > 0:42:17In fact, everyone in this cast was a pointless answer apart from

0:42:17 > 0:42:19James Dean, Natalie Wood, Dennis Hopper,

0:42:19 > 0:42:20Sal Mineo and Nick Adams.

0:42:20 > 0:42:23Everybody else was a pointless answer, well done if you said one.

0:42:23 > 0:42:26Now, the cities on Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour.

0:42:26 > 0:42:28Loads and loads of pointless answers here.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34Antwerp, Atlanta, Atlantic City, Auckland, Birmingham, Cologne, Edmonton,

0:42:34 > 0:42:36Glendale, Louisville, Macau,

0:42:36 > 0:42:38Mannheim, Nashville, Portland, Prague,

0:42:38 > 0:42:42Quebec City, San Antonio, San Jose, San Juan, Singapore, St Paul,

0:42:42 > 0:42:46Stockholm, Taipei, Tulsa, Turin, Vancouver and Zurich.

0:42:46 > 0:42:48Very well done if you said any of those at home,

0:42:48 > 0:42:52and congratulations on plucking that pointless answer in the studio.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54- Congratulations.- Thanks very much indeed, Richard,

0:42:54 > 0:42:56and thanks once again to our winning players, Fatima and Robin,

0:42:56 > 0:43:00who go away with today's jackpot of £2,750 for their charities.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02Very well done.

0:43:02 > 0:43:04APPLAUSE

0:43:04 > 0:43:08Join us next time, when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.

0:43:08 > 0:43:10Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...

0:43:10 > 0:43:12- Goodbye.- ..and it's goodbye from me.

0:43:12 > 0:43:13Goodbye.
