0:00:20 > 0:00:24APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:00:25 > 0:00:27Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong,
0:00:29 > 0:00:31and a very warm welcome to a special celebrity edition
0:00:31 > 0:00:35of Pointless - the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.
0:00:35 > 0:00:39Every single question on Pointless has been asked to 100 people before the show.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42To be in with a chance of winning our final round jackpot
0:00:42 > 0:00:44our celebrities need to come up with the answers
0:00:44 > 0:00:47the fewest of our 100 people could think of.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Let's meet today's Pointless celebrities.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53APPLAUSE AND CHEEIRING
0:00:56 > 0:00:59First up, we welcome Iwan Thomas and Katharine Merry.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Well, thank you.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Now, Katharine, as an Olympic bronze medallist,
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Iwan, as a European Commonwealth champion,
0:01:11 > 0:01:13I mean, surely any questions on athletics,
0:01:13 > 0:01:16one would like to think, would be comfortably within your grasp.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- You'd hope so, wouldn't you? - You'd like to think.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21You'll know everything, I'm pushing it all onto you.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23- She's a statto Queen, she knows everything.- Really?
0:01:23 > 0:01:26You keep all the facts and figures there?
0:01:26 > 0:01:30Katharine, you were the fastest girl on the planet at the age of 14.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31Many, many years ago.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34Then you were the fastest woman on the planet over 400 metres.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36- A few years ago, yeah. - But that's... That's amazing.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39But then, I watch this programme and I've never had
0:01:39 > 0:01:42a pointless answer, and that's what really matters.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45It doesn't matter how fast we used to run,
0:01:45 > 0:01:48- it's about pointless answers, and I've never had one. - Only for 45 minutes.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51- Anything you'd hate to see come up? - History.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54We both thought that today, history's not good.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56OK, very, very best of luck, it's great to have you on the show.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00And next, please welcome Sherrie Hewson and Carol McGiffin.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:02:05 > 0:02:09Well, now, we know you both, Sherrie and Carol, as presenters on Loose Women,
0:02:09 > 0:02:12but how long have you been working together?
0:02:12 > 0:02:16- Er, oh...- Nine or ten years. - Ten years now, yeah.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19So you'd think we'd know each other, wouldn't you?
0:02:19 > 0:02:21- Who is she?- I don't know who she is.
0:02:21 > 0:02:22You see, I was thinking,
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Loose Women must be the best training for Pointless,
0:02:25 > 0:02:26cos you cover everything.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29What are you trying to say?
0:02:29 > 0:02:31I'm just saying, you're going to win, is what I'm saying.
0:02:31 > 0:02:36- I don't think so. If you've got subjects like men, and... - Knickers...
0:02:36 > 0:02:39- ..women and what they think of men...- Bras...
0:02:39 > 0:02:43..and underwear and things like that, we're going to clean up.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45- Looks like you're going to clean up. - Yeah, knickers, bras, men,
0:02:45 > 0:02:47what women think of men...
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Yeah, we're there, we're there.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53Sherrie, have you got any sort of surprise little niche interests that might...?
0:02:53 > 0:02:57No, I'm very good on bananas. Anything to do with bananas.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00- Dogs.- Dogs! I'm very good on dogs.
0:03:00 > 0:03:04- Dogs, bananas, very good. - So there's no hope.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Sherrie and Carol, a very warm welcome to the show.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Very, very best of luck.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Next we welcome Paul and Barry Chuckle.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:03:17 > 0:03:21Well, obviously as brothers - you are brothers!
0:03:21 > 0:03:24- We are brothers, aren't we? - I didn't realise you really were.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28- Oh, yes. Somebody told us we were, didn't they?- Yes, they did.
0:03:28 > 0:03:29Was it me mum?
0:03:29 > 0:03:30LAUGHTER
0:03:30 > 0:03:33You must know each other inside out.
0:03:33 > 0:03:34We do, I think, don't we?
0:03:34 > 0:03:36I don't know your insides, but your outs are well-known.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39But you know each other's strengths and weaknesses are.
0:03:39 > 0:03:40We certainly do, yes.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44My strength's just about everything, and Barry's got none at all.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Perfect, perfect couple.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Except for the size of his nose, of course, it's massive.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52Any other surprising interests, Barry?
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Yes, well, I like gardening.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59Don't I? But don't ask me any questions on flowers.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02I know what they look like and I can pick them out, but I don't know their names.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06OK, so no questions on gardening, but you like gardening.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08I like gardening.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11- You see what I mean? - Yeah, I'm getting there.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Paul, how about you? What would be good for you?
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Good for me? Sport, any kind of sport.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Geography, I like geography.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Of course, you've toured everywhere, haven't you?
0:04:21 > 0:04:24You've done cabaret, you've performed everywhere.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27We've done ice shows, everything, haven't we? A circus...
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- Pantomime...- Anything to get some money, you know.
0:04:30 > 0:04:31LAUGHTER
0:04:31 > 0:04:34Paul and Barry, it's lovely to have you here. Very, very best of luck.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38And finally we've got Arlene and Alana Phillips.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40APPLAUSE
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Now, Arlene, of course, we know you as a judge
0:04:46 > 0:04:49from Strictly Come Dancing and now from So You Think You Can Dance?
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Would you please kindly introduce your team-mate.
0:04:52 > 0:04:58Right. I am here with my make-up artist and my daughter, Alana.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01APPLAUSE
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Now then, Arlene, you've done the choreography
0:05:08 > 0:05:11for countless West End shows, haven't you?
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Yes, yeah.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17Gosh, Wizard Of Oz, Sound Of Music, We Will Rock You,
0:05:17 > 0:05:21Starlight Express, Grease, Saturday Night Fever...
0:05:21 > 0:05:23I should know everything about dance,
0:05:23 > 0:05:25I should know everything about musicals,
0:05:25 > 0:05:27I should know an awful lot of things,
0:05:27 > 0:05:32and I'm hoping that I'm not going to be hopeless and helpless,
0:05:32 > 0:05:35and I'm hoping I'm going to be truly pointless.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37I'm sure, I'm sure you are.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Alana, what would be good subjects for you?
0:05:39 > 0:05:43- Shoes.- Shoes. Yeah, they come up a lot on the show.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45I know about shoes!
0:05:45 > 0:05:48And handbags!
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Handbags. You've got it all covered there.
0:05:51 > 0:05:52Shoes, make-up.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54I sound very shallow.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Any blind spots for you?
0:05:57 > 0:06:00- Geography.- OK.- Useless.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03- Right, geography...- Or maths.
0:06:03 > 0:06:09Or maths. So we're doing adding or taking away... OK, very good.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Well, we'll discover what lies in store.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Welcome to the show, and very best of luck, Arlene and Alana.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16There's only one person left for me to introduce.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19The last time he didn't know the answer to a question was 1984,
0:06:19 > 0:06:23and that question was, "Is there anything you don't know?"
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- He's my pointless friend, he's Richard.- Hiya
0:06:25 > 0:06:28APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:06:31 > 0:06:34- How are you today? - I'm very well.- That's good.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37I sometimes get a sixth sense about how shows are going to go.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40This genuinely feels to me like it might be carnage.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42LAUGHTER
0:06:42 > 0:06:43Don't you reckon?
0:06:43 > 0:06:47Even for our celeb special sometimes, sometimes you think,
0:06:47 > 0:06:51"There's a couple of people there who'll pull through."
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Today you're just thinking, "This is just going to be a wreck."
0:06:54 > 0:06:56LAUGHTER
0:06:56 > 0:07:00On a serious note, though, you remember for years and years people campaigned
0:07:00 > 0:07:02for Bruce Forsyth to be knighted.
0:07:02 > 0:07:03- Yes.- And it took a very long time
0:07:03 > 0:07:06and people couldn't quite understand and all that kind of stuff.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Barry and Paul Chuckle -
0:07:08 > 0:07:1249 years in showbiz, not a Sir, not even an MBE!
0:07:12 > 0:07:14APPLAUSE
0:07:17 > 0:07:18We start the campaign now.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Don't you think, "Lord Chuckle of Rotherham?"
0:07:21 > 0:07:26- Yeah.- At least one of them, I don't mind which, you can't both have it.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29- Arlene, you're an OBE, aren't you? - I am, indeed, an OBE.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Don't you think they should join your illustrious company?
0:07:31 > 0:07:33I think they should.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- Iwan, you've got an MBE? - I have, yes.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37Carol? Anything?
0:07:37 > 0:07:38LAUGHTER
0:07:38 > 0:07:40No! Not yet!
0:07:40 > 0:07:41Unbelievable.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Well, if you win this, maybe along with the trophy
0:07:44 > 0:07:47you'll get a little something - Dame Carol.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50As I say, I think it is going to be carnage,
0:07:50 > 0:07:52and that carnage is going to begin in round one.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56OK, right from the off.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Thank you very much, Richard.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02All our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show,
0:08:02 > 0:08:04but we are looking for the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07To stay in and have a chance to win our jackpot,
0:08:07 > 0:08:10all our celebrities need to do is score as few points as they can.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Obviously, what everyone's trying to do is to find a pointless answer,
0:08:13 > 0:08:17which is an answer none of our 100 people could think of,
0:08:17 > 0:08:20and every time that happens we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22As today's show is a celebrity special
0:08:22 > 0:08:26and each of our celebrities is playing for a nominated charity,
0:08:26 > 0:08:29we start off with a jackpot of £2,500.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33APPLAUSE
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46OK, in this first round each of you must give me one answer
0:08:46 > 0:08:48and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Whichever team has the highest score
0:08:50 > 0:08:52at the end of the round will be eliminated.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55If you give me an incorrect answer you will score the maximum of 100 points,
0:08:55 > 0:08:58so really try and avoid those if you can.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01OK, our first category is...
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:09:05 > 0:09:06who's going to go second?
0:09:06 > 0:09:09And whoever's going first please step up to the podium.
0:09:13 > 0:09:18We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many words ending
0:09:18 > 0:09:22in "ONG" as they could.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26- Richard.- We're looking for any word in the Oxford English Dictionary
0:09:26 > 0:09:27that ends ONG. As always, no proper nouns
0:09:27 > 0:09:30and no hyphenated words, please.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Any word ending ONG. Very best of luck.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Thank you very much, Richard.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39Now then, Iwan and Katharine, you all drew lots before the show,
0:09:39 > 0:09:41and today you are going first.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44So, Iwan, in your own time,
0:09:44 > 0:09:47a nice, obscure word ending in ONG.
0:09:47 > 0:09:52It may not be that good, I want to be safe, I'll go with wrong.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53Wrong.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Let's see if wrong is right,
0:09:56 > 0:09:59and if it is let's see how many of our 100 people said wrong.
0:10:04 > 0:10:0644.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09APPLAUSE
0:10:09 > 0:10:1244 of our 100 people said wrong,
0:10:12 > 0:10:14which means you score 44.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Yes, wrong.
0:10:15 > 0:10:16It means wrong.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18This is going to be fun.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22I'm wanting definitions from you on all of these.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26- Sherrie.- Well, I'm trying to think of the name of that game,
0:10:26 > 0:10:27and I can't think of the name of it.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30It is something like "Mayjong", or...
0:10:30 > 0:10:34You know that...that Chinese game with the...
0:10:34 > 0:10:36With the little thingies and the Chinese,
0:10:36 > 0:10:39and you go like that and then you go...
0:10:39 > 0:10:43You know, what you do with it...
0:10:43 > 0:10:45All right, Mah-Jong.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Sherrie is saying Mah-Jong.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:10:49 > 0:10:51let's see how many of our 100 people said Mah-Jong.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Bad luck, Sherrie.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01I thought that was going to be brilliant.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03I thought it was going to be brilliant, as well.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06For some reason that's incorrect, so you score 100 points.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- I'm very sorry. Richard.- Yes, sorry,
0:11:08 > 0:11:10the mime was exemplary, but it's not one word,
0:11:10 > 0:11:13- I'm afraid, hyphenated. - Is it? I didn't know that.
0:11:13 > 0:11:14Sorry, Carol.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16It's all right.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18LAUGHTER
0:11:18 > 0:11:22Paul, remember, we are looking for words ending in ONG.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25I'm going for throng.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29Throng. Throng, very good indeed.
0:11:29 > 0:11:30The audience like that.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33Throng - let's see if that's right,
0:11:33 > 0:11:35how many of our 100 people said throng?
0:11:44 > 0:11:4512!
0:11:45 > 0:11:47APPLAUSE
0:11:47 > 0:11:49That's a great answer.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Lovely low score there, Paul, for throng.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Yes, crowded mass of people.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Like the throng clamouring for Paul and Barry to be knighted.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58LAUGHTER
0:11:58 > 0:12:04Yes. Now then, Arlene, a nice, obscure word ending ONG.
0:12:04 > 0:12:10Well, a very old-fashioned word is coming into my mind.
0:12:10 > 0:12:11Furlong.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15Furlong. Oh, she's good!
0:12:15 > 0:12:17She's very good.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Let's see if that's right.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Obviously it's right, come on.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24Let's see how many people said furlong.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Very well done indeed, Arlene! 2!
0:12:36 > 0:12:38APPLAUSE
0:12:40 > 0:12:41Superb answer. Furlong.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45Very well played, Arlene, best answer of the round.
0:12:45 > 0:12:471/8 of a mile is a furlong.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Horse races, obviously, are measured in miles and furlongs.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Thank you very much.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56We're halfway through the round, let's take a look at those scores.
0:12:56 > 0:13:01Arlene and Alana, that's amazing - 2, what a lovely low score there.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05Then we come to 12, where we find Sir Paul and Sir Barry.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09Then we are up to 44, where Iwan and Katharine are.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12And then, I'm afraid, Sherrie and Carol, you're on 100.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15- Which means, Carol... - Pressure's on.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18Somebody else might give a wrong answer,
0:13:18 > 0:13:20but a lovely low score from you will help.
0:13:20 > 0:13:24We just have to hope it's enough to see you through to the next round.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26OK, we're going to come back down the line,
0:13:26 > 0:13:29can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:13:31 > 0:13:35OK, we're looking for words ending in ONG.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Now, listen, Alana, Arlene gave such a good word there,
0:13:38 > 0:13:40you scored only 2.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Can I just say, she took my word.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45That was my word!
0:13:45 > 0:13:47- Really?- Honestly, seriously.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50In that case, if you're good enough to come up with furlong
0:13:50 > 0:13:52you can come up with another great answer.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55The high scorers are Carol and Sherrie on 100, you're on 2.
0:13:55 > 0:14:00A score of 97 or less will see you through to the next round.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Oh, God, sorry, is it my go?
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Yes. Yeah.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10- I thought you were going round again.- No, no, no.
0:14:10 > 0:14:11No, it's you.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Oblong.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Oblong? Oh, it's another great word!
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Oblong, says Alana.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18There is your red line.
0:14:18 > 0:14:23If you get below that red line you are through to the next round.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Oblong, says Alana. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:14:28 > 0:14:30It's right.
0:14:35 > 0:14:415. Very, very well done indeed. 5 takes your total up to 7.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46- That's a team to be reckoned with, isn't it?- Isn't it?
0:14:46 > 0:14:50Oblong, very well done, a rectangle with a length greater than its width.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Barry, you're on 12, the high scorers are Carol
0:14:52 > 0:14:57and Sherrie on 100, which means a score of 87 or less will see you
0:14:57 > 0:15:00- straight through to the next round. - Right.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04I've got one. Erm, prolong.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06- PAUL GASPS - Ooooh!
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- These are all much better than the one I've got!- Have you got one?
0:15:09 > 0:15:12No, I've got one, but I'm not sure, I think mine would be 100, actually.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15- I think it might be disallowed. - Will you say it at the end? - I'll say it at the end.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18OK, prolong. Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:15:18 > 0:15:20let's see how many of our 100 people said prolong.
0:15:23 > 0:15:24It's good.
0:15:24 > 0:15:25And you're through.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Oh! The best score!
0:15:32 > 0:15:33APPLAUSE
0:15:33 > 0:15:37The joint lowest score of the round.
0:15:37 > 0:15:41- Two takes your total up to 14. Richard.- Great answer, Barry.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44As in, let's not prolong the wait for the Chuckle Brothers' knighthood!
0:15:44 > 0:15:46LAUGHTER
0:15:47 > 0:15:52- Carol. You are the high scorers on 100.- I know.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Remember, we are looking for words ending in "ong".
0:15:54 > 0:15:58I mean, I've got a word that I think people don't use much any more.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02But I'm pretty sure it's a real word. But then, maybe not.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06But I'm going to go for it, because I've got nothing to lose, really!
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Because we're on 100.
0:16:08 > 0:16:09- Erm, pong.- Ooh!
0:16:09 > 0:16:10Pong.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13- People don't say that any more. - Pong.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15- They do in Rotherham!- You do!
0:16:15 > 0:16:17LAUGHTER
0:16:17 > 0:16:21Well, let's find out. Pong. How many people said pong?
0:16:21 > 0:16:24- No red line for you, because you are the high scorers. - I know.- I'm sorry.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28- Yes, it's right.- It's a real word.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31Do people say it any more?
0:16:31 > 0:16:33- 30.- Oh, well done!
0:16:35 > 0:16:3930. Not bad. Takes your total up to 130.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42Well played, Carol. An unpleasant smell, a pong.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44But also a videogame in more recent times.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47One of the forerunners of videogames, Pong.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51Katharine, the highest scorers are Carol and Sherrie on 130,
0:16:51 > 0:16:54which means a score of 85 or less
0:16:54 > 0:16:56will see you through to the next round.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59OK, I have a couple.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04Both are reasonably obvious, so therefore might be quite high scoring.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06So it's just a case of which one I go for.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10You can tell us what you're thinking, and then choose one. Give us both of them...
0:17:10 > 0:17:14Oh yes, everyone's played. Well, there's really obvious ones like "strong" and stuff like that.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Yeah.
0:17:16 > 0:17:17And then I've got two.
0:17:17 > 0:17:18Erm...
0:17:18 > 0:17:21shall I go for...
0:17:21 > 0:17:22belong,
0:17:22 > 0:17:25or shall I go for...
0:17:25 > 0:17:26thong?
0:17:26 > 0:17:29I'm a bit worried about thong, because I'm not sure, you know,
0:17:29 > 0:17:31whether it's going to be in or not. It has to be in.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- Thong has to be in. - You're going to go for thong?
0:17:34 > 0:17:37- I'm going to go for thong. - Here comes your red line. Nice and high.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41- Oh, my Lord, this is horrible! - If thong goes below the red line, you're through.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43I don't know why I'm grabbing my bum!
0:17:43 > 0:17:45How many people said thong? Is it right?
0:17:49 > 0:17:50It is right.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53- And you are through. - You know when you just don't know?
0:17:53 > 0:17:54Oh, look!
0:17:54 > 0:17:56It's great. 24. Great answer.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00- Takes your total up to 68. - You do worry though, don't you?
0:18:00 > 0:18:02- That's why I don't worry. - Richard.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06Well played and better than belong, which would have scored 30 points.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09I wonder what country they wear the most thongs in.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12- We should have a Eurovision Thong Contest to find that out.- Italy!
0:18:12 > 0:18:16Let's take a look at some of the pointless... I'm so sorry.
0:18:16 > 0:18:17Let's look at some pointless answers.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19There's plenty of quite well-known words up here,
0:18:19 > 0:18:21quite interesting ones as well.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Biltong is a dried South African meat.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Birdsong, all one word.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27Evensong is well, that's a pointless answer.
0:18:27 > 0:18:32Headlong would have added £250 to the jackpot. Headstrong, livelong.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Plainsong. Souchong, the tea.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39Also Oolong, the tea, would also have been a pointless answer.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- And swansong, as in, this is Sherrie and Carol's swansong, sadly.- Yes.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46Let's take a look at the top answers. The ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49So these would have been the worst answers you could have given.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52- Wrong, from Iwan, we had. - Sorry about that!
0:18:52 > 0:18:55It's only the third worst answer. It's bronze, it's bronze!
0:18:55 > 0:18:56LAUGHTER
0:18:56 > 0:19:01Song would have scored you 61. And right up the top, long, on 62.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Very well done if you got any of those pointless answers at home.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07What was your word? Did you have one? Don't say it was one of the ones on the board?!
0:19:07 > 0:19:11No, I don't think it would be allowed. Re-tong.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Re-tong?- Yeah.- What, as in something being tonged?
0:19:14 > 0:19:20- You'd be tonged and then "Oh, hang on, a quick re-tong.- So, re-tong? - Yeah, re-tong.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Well, the good news, Sherrie, is you haven't given the worst answer in the round.
0:19:23 > 0:19:29Re-tong very much the worst. That's 100 points every day of the week.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32- Why, because it's got a hyphen? - No, because it's not a word!
0:19:32 > 0:19:37- It must be a word!- How is that a word? When are you needing that? - Re-tong. It's a cracking answer.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Thank you very much, Richard. So at the end of the first round,
0:19:41 > 0:19:45the losing pair, with the highest score, it's Carol and Sherrie.
0:19:45 > 0:19:49- It wasn't meant to happen like that! - No, it wasn't!- Oh, I'm sorry.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53But it was a brilliant answer. The best, bravest answer of the round.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57- We want an inquiry. - Did you have any others, Sherrie?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00Thong, I was going to say, but I thought, that sounds stupid!
0:20:00 > 0:20:02LAUGHTER
0:20:02 > 0:20:04That's why I was worried!
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Oh, dear, oh, dear.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09Well, we have to say goodbye to you now. It's just completely wrong.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11- I know!- Bye-bye.- I thought you were destined for the final.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- But there we are.- Oh, well. - Carol and Sherrie.- Thank you.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Thanks so much for playing. Brilliant contestants.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23But for the remaining three celebrity pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33Obviously there's only going to be room for two celebrity pairs in the head-to-head,
0:20:33 > 0:20:37so one of the teams in front of me now will be leaving us at the end of this round.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41Our category for round two is sports stars.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43GROANING
0:20:43 > 0:20:45Sports stars.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:20:48 > 0:20:50who is going to go second.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Our round two question concerns...
0:21:00 > 0:21:03..sporting siblings. Richard.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06In each pass, we're going to give you the name of six sports stars,
0:21:06 > 0:21:09you have to give us the name of their sibling who plays or played
0:21:09 > 0:21:14the same sport professionally. Give us a nice obscure answer, you'll score fewer points.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Give us an incorrect answer, that will be 100 points.
0:21:16 > 0:21:1912 siblings in all to identify at home.
0:21:19 > 0:21:25OK, so we're looking for the sporting siblings of these people, and we have got...
0:21:54 > 0:21:55So, there are six sports stars,
0:21:55 > 0:21:57you need to give me the name of their siblings.
0:21:57 > 0:22:03And as always on Pointless, you're looking to find the one you think the fewest of 100 people knew.
0:22:03 > 0:22:08- Katharine, this is just easy for you, isn't it?- No!- Isn't it?- No!
0:22:08 > 0:22:12I'm going to go with the football one,
0:22:12 > 0:22:16and I'm going to go with Gary Neville's brother, being Phil.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Phil. Phil Neville. OK, let's see if that's right,
0:22:19 > 0:22:21and if it is, how many people knew that answer?
0:22:23 > 0:22:24It's right.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28- 49. - APPLAUSE
0:22:28 > 0:22:31- Don't worry.- It's not bad. - I've got a good one.
0:22:31 > 0:22:3349 for Phil Neville, so good answer, Katharine,
0:22:33 > 0:22:35there's some tough ones on that board.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39Phil's twin sister, Tracey, as well. Plays netball for England as well.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43- Oh, no! I know her!- Really? - Yes. I know Tracey! - Well, that's a talented family.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47- You know Tracey Neville, do you? She plays netball, doesn't she?- Yes.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50- For England.- Oh!- And she's got a twin brother called Phil.
0:22:50 > 0:22:55- And she's got a dad called Neville! - Yes. Has she? I forgot about that!
0:22:55 > 0:23:00Thanks very much, Richard. So then, Paul. Sporting siblings.
0:23:00 > 0:23:05I'm going to go for Francesco Molinari, in the golf.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07And his brother is Edoardo Molinari.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Edoardo Molinari, says Paul.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people knew that answer?
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Edoardo Molinari.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19It's right.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Oh, that's a great answer, Paul!
0:23:26 > 0:23:28Well done.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32Very, very good indeed. That scores you two. Brilliant. Richard.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36Very good. The Molinari brothers both played in the Ryder Cup for Europe.
0:23:36 > 0:23:40Won the World Cup in golf for Italy. Both in the world's top 50.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Thank you very much, Richard.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45Now, Arlene, you're the last person to have this board.
0:23:45 > 0:23:49- So if you like, you can fill in all the blanks.- Sure.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51I know very little about sport,
0:23:51 > 0:23:53and I've watched those big butch rowing boys
0:23:53 > 0:23:58and I cannot remember what the other one's called. Can you believe it?
0:23:58 > 0:24:03So, I'm not even going to try for a pointless answer
0:24:03 > 0:24:07because I know it's the same one that everybody knows.
0:24:07 > 0:24:12I'm going to go for Venus and Serena Williams.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14You're supplying Serena Williams as Venus's sister.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16Let's see if that's right,
0:24:16 > 0:24:19and if it is, let's see how many people knew that answer.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22Yeah, it's right.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25- APPLAUSE - 73.
0:24:28 > 0:24:3073 for Serena Williams.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Yes, it's the best tactic, Arlene,
0:24:32 > 0:24:36much better than getting 100 points, gives you a chance to stay in the round.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Let's take a look at the rest of the answers.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41The other hunky Searle brother, he won the coxed pairs in 1992
0:24:41 > 0:24:44with his brother, is Greg Searle.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48- Would have scored you three points. Vitali Klitschko's brother is, Katharine?- Wladimir.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51- Wladimir Klitschko, absolutely right, would have scored 14.- Aaargh!
0:24:51 > 0:24:53And Joe Davis's brother?
0:24:53 > 0:24:54Fred Davis.
0:24:54 > 0:24:55Absolutely right.
0:24:55 > 0:24:59Well played, Barry, Fred Davis, and that would have scored you nine points.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02So the best answer on the board there, Edoardo Molinari, well done,
0:25:02 > 0:25:04and well done if you got all six of those at home.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08Thanks very much, Richard. We're halfway through the round, let's take a look at those scores.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Paul and Barry, once again.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13Lovely low score, this time you are the lowest scorers, two.
0:25:13 > 0:25:18That's wonderful, then up to 49, where we find Katharine and Iwan,
0:25:18 > 0:25:20and then up to 73, where we find Arlene and Alana.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23Now, Alana, you'll get first pick of the next board.
0:25:23 > 0:25:27So make sure you find a really good obscure answer that you know.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30- Is it sports again?- Yeah.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32- Ah.- And let's hope that'll be enough to keep you in the show.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Right, we're going to come back down the line,
0:25:34 > 0:25:38can the second players please take their places at the podium.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42OK, we're going to put six more sports stars on the board,
0:25:42 > 0:25:44and here we go.
0:25:44 > 0:25:45We have got...
0:25:57 > 0:25:59I'll read those all one more time.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12And remember, you are looking for the siblings of these sports stars,
0:26:12 > 0:26:14and you're trying to find the one
0:26:14 > 0:26:16that the fewest of our 100 people would have known.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19Alana, you're the highest scorers on 73.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21- I don't know any! - SHE GIGGLES
0:26:21 > 0:26:22Really?
0:26:22 > 0:26:26Really, I knew... I knew four on the other board,
0:26:26 > 0:26:27I don't know any on this one.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30OK, you're going to have to make up a name.
0:26:30 > 0:26:31- OK!- This is going to be fun.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32Um...
0:26:32 > 0:26:34Oh, wait. Uh...
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Can you just read the bottom one again?
0:26:38 > 0:26:40The bottom one is Bobby Charlton.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42He was a footballer.
0:26:42 > 0:26:43Yeah, no.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45LAUGHTER
0:26:45 > 0:26:47- SHE GIGGLES - Um...
0:26:47 > 0:26:48Oh, no!
0:26:50 > 0:26:51Paul Underwood!
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Paul Underwood?
0:26:54 > 0:26:57- Paul Underwood, the rugby player. - ARLENE LAUGHS
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Is it right, how many people said Paul Underwood?
0:27:02 > 0:27:04No!
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Bad luck, Alana, I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer,
0:27:06 > 0:27:08so I'm afraid you do score 100 points.
0:27:08 > 0:27:09Your total is 173. Richard.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11Yes, sorry, Alana, not Paul Underwood,
0:27:11 > 0:27:14but you know it's not all bad, cos you got the surname right.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16- Yay! - LAUGHTER
0:27:17 > 0:27:19- Now then, Barry.- Yes.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Remember we are looking for the sporting siblings
0:27:22 > 0:27:23of these sports stars.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26The high scorers are out of your reach -
0:27:26 > 0:27:29Alana and Arlene are on 173.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Even if you score 100 points, which I know you won't,
0:27:31 > 0:27:34you are through to the next round whatever happens.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36Good.
0:27:36 > 0:27:37- THEY LAUGH - Well...
0:27:37 > 0:27:40I'm going to play safe, then, and I'm going for...
0:27:40 > 0:27:43Bobby Charlton's brother, Jackie Charlton.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46- Bobby Charlton's brother, Jackie Charlton, you are saying.- Yes.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:27:48 > 0:27:52let's see how many people said it, no red line for you as you're already through.
0:27:52 > 0:27:53Yes, it's right.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57- 43. - APPLAUSE
0:27:57 > 0:28:0043 takes your total up to 45.
0:28:02 > 0:28:03Well played, Barry.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06Of course, the interesting thing about the Charlton brothers -
0:28:06 > 0:28:09one of them is knighted, and the other one is not knighted.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12Which raises the question which everyone will be asking at home,
0:28:12 > 0:28:14which one of the Chuckle Brothers do you knight first? LAUGHTER
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Is it Paul or Barry?
0:28:16 > 0:28:17That's interesting.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19I'm thinking Paul, currently.
0:28:19 > 0:28:20LAUGHTER
0:28:20 > 0:28:24Iwan, you are on 49, even if you score 100 points,
0:28:24 > 0:28:28you won't overtake Alana and Arlene on 173.
0:28:28 > 0:28:31So remember, we are looking for the brothers or sisters
0:28:31 > 0:28:32of these sporting celebrities.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35I'll go for, er... Andy's big brother, Jamie Murray.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37Andy Murray's brother, Jamie.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40Andy Murray's brother, Jamie, you're saying.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said it.
0:28:42 > 0:28:46Again, no red line for you, as you're already through.
0:28:46 > 0:28:47It's right.
0:28:52 > 0:28:5315.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56- APPLAUSE - That's great, that's a very good answer.
0:28:56 > 0:28:5815 takes your total up to 64.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00- Richard.- Well played, Iwan, safe and sound.
0:29:00 > 0:29:04He's a terrific doubles player, Jamie Murray, won the Wimbledon 2007 mixed doubles,
0:29:04 > 0:29:07also plays doubles with Andy Murray in the Davis Cup.
0:29:07 > 0:29:11- Did anyone want to fill in any of those others, Rio Ferdinand's brother?- Tony?
0:29:11 > 0:29:14- Anton.- Anton Ferdinand, yeah. Would have scored 27 points.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17Now, let's clear up Rory Underwood, not Paul Underwood...
0:29:17 > 0:29:20- Tony Underwood.- Absolutely right, would have scored eight.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22Leon Spinks's brother?
0:29:22 > 0:29:25- Michael?- Michael Spinks, absolutely right, well done, Katharine,
0:29:25 > 0:29:27would have scored you three.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30Now, believe it or not, there is a pointless answer on this board.
0:29:30 > 0:29:32And it's Karen Josephson, synchronised swimming.
0:29:32 > 0:29:36- Anybody want to have a go at that? I'll give you 12 guesses. - Elizabeth.- Lucinda.
0:29:36 > 0:29:37Not Elizabeth or Lucinda.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40- Paul. - No... Oh, Paul! That's so close.
0:29:40 > 0:29:44It's Sarah Josephson, Sarah Josephson.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46Very well done if you said that at home.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48Thanks very much, Richard.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51So at the end of round two, the losing celebrity pair
0:29:51 > 0:29:54with the highest score, I'm afraid, is Arlene and Alana.
0:29:54 > 0:29:55You had a dream round one.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57- Flying high, round one. - Absolutely flying high.
0:29:57 > 0:30:02And falling from the clouds in round two, because it was sport.
0:30:02 > 0:30:03Oh, dear.
0:30:03 > 0:30:05I'm sorry, well, you were so good in round one,
0:30:05 > 0:30:07take memories of round one away with you.
0:30:07 > 0:30:08Thank you.
0:30:08 > 0:30:11Alana, Arlene, you've been wonderful contestants,
0:30:11 > 0:30:14it's been lovely having you on the show, thank you so much for playing.
0:30:14 > 0:30:17APPLAUSE BOTH: Thank you!
0:30:17 > 0:30:19But for the remaining two celebrity pairs,
0:30:19 > 0:30:21things are about to get even more exciting now,
0:30:21 > 0:30:24as we enter the head-to-head.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29APPLAUSE
0:30:29 > 0:30:31Well, congratulations Paul and Barry, Iwan and Katharine,
0:30:31 > 0:30:34you are now only one round away from the final,
0:30:34 > 0:30:38and a chance to play for the jackpot, which currently stands at £2,500.
0:30:39 > 0:30:40APPLAUSE
0:30:43 > 0:30:46Now, obviously only one pair can play for that money,
0:30:46 > 0:30:49and to decide which pair it's going to be, you're now going head-to-head.
0:30:49 > 0:30:53For each question, you'll be shown five options on the board.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Each pair needs to answer just one of them,
0:30:55 > 0:30:57but you are now allowed to confer.
0:30:57 > 0:30:59All you have to do is score less than the other pair
0:30:59 > 0:31:01and you will win that question.
0:31:01 > 0:31:05The first pair to win two questions will be playing for the jackpot.
0:31:05 > 0:31:10So, it's the athletes... versus the Chuckle Brothers.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12OK, let's play the head-to-head.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20OK, here comes your first question. And it concerns...
0:31:23 > 0:31:25Sights of Paris, Richard.
0:31:25 > 0:31:30We're going to show you five pictures of sights in the City of Paris -
0:31:30 > 0:31:34all you have to do is name the most obscure one. Good luck.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37Very good indeed. So let's reveal our five sights of Paris.
0:31:37 > 0:31:42Paul and Barry looking quietly confident here. Here they come...
0:31:56 > 0:32:00So there they are - our five sights of Paris.
0:32:00 > 0:32:04Paul and Barry, you've played best throughout the show so far, so you get to go first.
0:32:08 > 0:32:12We'll pick one of the obvious ones, I think. B, Notre Dame.
0:32:12 > 0:32:17B, Notre Dame, say Paul and Barry.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Iwan and Katharine, you can confer out loud,
0:32:19 > 0:32:23- or you can just take us through the board.- We're debating A,
0:32:23 > 0:32:25but it might be a bit risky -
0:32:25 > 0:32:26I think we'll go safe with E...
0:32:29 > 0:32:31..and we believe it's Roland Garros.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33Iwan and Katharine are going for Roland Garros.
0:32:33 > 0:32:36Paul and Barry have said B, Notre Dame.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38Let's see if that's right,
0:32:38 > 0:32:40and how many of our 100 people knew that. Notre Dame.
0:32:43 > 0:32:45It's right.
0:32:47 > 0:32:4968.
0:32:52 > 0:32:56Iwan and Katharine have said E,
0:32:56 > 0:32:57Stade Roland Garros.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59Let's see if that's right,
0:32:59 > 0:33:01and how many of our 100 people knew that answer.
0:33:03 > 0:33:05Yes, it is...
0:33:05 > 0:33:07and you've won the question.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11Oh, it's a great...
0:33:16 > 0:33:21Very good. So, Iwan and Katharine, after the first question you are up 1-0.
0:33:21 > 0:33:26Only sports people would go for an "obvious" one, and then go for the best answer on the board,
0:33:26 > 0:33:29by some way. What were you going to say for A? You were tempted...
0:33:29 > 0:33:32Stade de France. It looked like
0:33:32 > 0:33:36- a stadium from the outside. - It's the Pompidou Centre.
0:33:36 > 0:33:38Would have scored you 11 points.
0:33:39 > 0:33:42There we see Notre Dame. C is the Louvre,
0:33:42 > 0:33:44that would have scored 41 points.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46And the Blackpool Tower(!)
0:33:46 > 0:33:50Well, it's the Eiffel Tower - how many points do you think that scores?
0:33:51 > 0:33:55- 96.- Maybe even 100.- No, not that high. I reckon about 60-odd.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57- 100.- Wow!- 100 points.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59Yes, there we are.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02And the Stade Roland Garros, where they hold the French Open.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05Named after the pioneering aviator, Roland Garros.
0:34:05 > 0:34:10- Can I say one question about the French, though, genuinely, that perplexes me?- What?
0:34:10 > 0:34:14Why have the Chuckle Brothers not got a Legion of Honour? LAUGHTER
0:34:14 > 0:34:18- You haven't got one, have you, guys? - No.- Cos I know if you had got one
0:34:18 > 0:34:23- you'd probably keep it very low down, be quite humble about it, but we'd have heard.- Yeah.
0:34:23 > 0:34:26- What else do the French want? - Yeah. What?
0:34:26 > 0:34:28The Olympics?
0:34:28 > 0:34:29LAUGHTER
0:34:29 > 0:34:31Touche!
0:34:33 > 0:34:35Right, here comes your second question.
0:34:35 > 0:34:37Paul and Barry, you have to win this.
0:34:37 > 0:34:39- To you...- To me.
0:34:39 > 0:34:41LAUGHTER
0:34:43 > 0:34:44I wonder what that is in French.
0:34:44 > 0:34:48- You probably know how to say that in French, don't you?- A toi.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50A moi. LAUGHTER
0:34:50 > 0:34:53A toi... A moi.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55A toi...
0:34:55 > 0:34:57Legion d'Honneur!
0:34:57 > 0:34:59LAUGHTER
0:34:59 > 0:35:02(THICK FRENCH ACCENT) "Les freres...Chuckleuh!"
0:35:03 > 0:35:05(In a world of their own, aren't they?)
0:35:05 > 0:35:08Right, here comes your second question, and it concerns...
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Hugh Grant films, Richard.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17We're going to list five Hugh Grant films for this question, but only the initials.
0:35:17 > 0:35:21Can you work out what the films are, and give us the most obscure one? Good luck.
0:35:22 > 0:35:26OK, here come our Hugh Grant films in initial form. And we have got...
0:35:38 > 0:35:41I'll read those all one more time.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59Now then, Iwan and Katharine,
0:35:59 > 0:36:01- you go first this time.- OK...
0:36:08 > 0:36:10- Yeah. - What have you got?- We're ready.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12OK, you've got one?
0:36:12 > 0:36:14Do you want to tell me?
0:36:14 > 0:36:17- Are you sure?- Yeah, it is. 100%.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19Well, you heard it here. It's 100%.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22Well, I hope it's not 100 up there, but... About A Boy.
0:36:22 > 0:36:27About A Boy, obviously for AAB. Sounds good.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29Iwan and Katharine are saying About A Boy.
0:36:29 > 0:36:34Paul and Barry. You need to win this point to stay in the game, remember.
0:36:34 > 0:36:38I don't think we'll beat that. That's going to be a low one.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41We'll go for Bridget Jones's Diary.
0:36:41 > 0:36:46OK, AAB and BJD.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49So, Iwan and Katharine have said AAB is About A Boy.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many of our 100 people said About A Boy.
0:37:00 > 0:37:0235.
0:37:02 > 0:37:03APPLAUSE
0:37:03 > 0:37:07- That's quite high.- Yeah. - I mean, who knows?
0:37:07 > 0:37:09Paul and Barry have gone for BJD,
0:37:09 > 0:37:11which they say is Bridget Jones's Diary.
0:37:11 > 0:37:16Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:37:16 > 0:37:1835 is the score to beat.
0:37:21 > 0:37:24It's right...
0:37:24 > 0:37:2645!
0:37:26 > 0:37:28APPLAUSE
0:37:30 > 0:37:3145.
0:37:31 > 0:37:36Bad luck, Paul and Barry. I'm afraid About A Boy has pipped you,
0:37:36 > 0:37:40which means after only two questions, Iwan and Katharine are through to the final 2-0. Richard.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42Yeah. Really well played.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44Over your careers you must have vanquished
0:37:44 > 0:37:47many fearsome opponents on starting lines
0:37:47 > 0:37:51and gone past them round a bend and thought "I can never beat this person",
0:37:51 > 0:37:54but surely you can't have dreamed you would beat The Chuckle Brothers.
0:37:54 > 0:37:57Michael Johnson's got nothing on them.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00There's a couple of answers that would have beaten About A Boy.
0:38:00 > 0:38:04FWAAF wouldn't have beaten it, that's Four Weddings And A Funeral,
0:38:04 > 0:38:06and that would have scored you 76.
0:38:06 > 0:38:11SAS is Sense And Sensibility. Would have scored 14 points.
0:38:11 > 0:38:15And DYHATM? was from 2009, he starred with Sarah Jessica Parker -
0:38:15 > 0:38:18she got nominated for a Golden Raspberry
0:38:18 > 0:38:21for worst actress, for Did You Hear About The Morgans?
0:38:21 > 0:38:25Which would have scored 10 points. Well done if you got that at home.
0:38:25 > 0:38:28Well, thank you very much, Richard.
0:38:28 > 0:38:33So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head is Paul and Barry. Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear!
0:38:33 > 0:38:35AUDIENCE: Awww!
0:38:35 > 0:38:40But you've come through this Pointless like a knife through butter. A hot knife at that!
0:38:40 > 0:38:43Two lovely low scores in the first two rounds.
0:38:43 > 0:38:46D'you think the knighthood's out of the window now?
0:38:46 > 0:38:53Not at all. I think your graciousness in defeat, if anything, has just put the seal on that.
0:38:53 > 0:38:59Paul and Barry, it's been heaven having you on the show. The Chuckle Brothers!
0:39:04 > 0:39:07But, for Iwan and Katharine it's now time for our Pointless Final.
0:39:12 > 0:39:19Congratulations, Iwan and Katharine, you've seen off the competition and won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:39:25 > 0:39:29You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot for your nominated charities.
0:39:29 > 0:39:33At the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £2,500.
0:39:33 > 0:39:35- APPLAUSE - We'll have some of that.
0:39:37 > 0:39:42The rules are very simple. To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44We haven't had any on the show today.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47You only need to find one pointless answer now,
0:39:47 > 0:39:50and you will go away with that £2,500 for your charities.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54Firstly you've got to choose a category, and you can choose from these five options...
0:40:02 > 0:40:06- Nothing jumps out at me. - 20th Century Literature
0:40:06 > 0:40:07may as well not be there.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09Country music, see you later.
0:40:09 > 0:40:13- Formula 1 I do watch a lot of, and I do like...- Go on, then.
0:40:13 > 0:40:17- Formula 1, yeah?- Go on, then. Yeah, Formula 1.
0:40:17 > 0:40:22Formula 1 it is. Let's find out what the question is.
0:40:22 > 0:40:25We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many
0:40:25 > 0:40:30winners of the British Grand Prix as they could. Richard.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32Yes, any F1 driver who's won the British Grand Prix
0:40:32 > 0:40:36since the start of the World Drivers' Championships in 1950.
0:40:36 > 0:40:40Some of those early years, driving duties and points were shared so there may be more than one name -
0:40:40 > 0:40:43we'll accept either name.
0:40:43 > 0:40:50So any driver that has won a British Grand Prix from 1950 all the way through to 2011. Very best of luck.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52You have up to one minute to come up with three answers,
0:40:52 > 0:40:56and all you need to win that £2,500 for your charities
0:40:56 > 0:40:58is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:40:58 > 0:41:02- Are you ready?- OK.- OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock...
0:41:02 > 0:41:07There they are. Your time starts now.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10- Nigel Mansell's too obvious. Damon Hill...- Well, we know the names...
0:41:10 > 0:41:15- You've got the obscure names like... - Jacques Villeneuve.- Did he win it?
0:41:15 > 0:41:19- Vettel must have, but he's too obvious...- He's too obvious.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22- Webber's won it.- What about Damon's dad? Did Graham Hill win it?
0:41:22 > 0:41:27- I reckon Webber might be one of them.- But we need old ones.
0:41:27 > 0:41:31Cos the names nowadays... People are going to get the names nowadays.
0:41:31 > 0:41:34Graham Hill, for one.
0:41:34 > 0:41:40OK. What about when they were REALLY old cars, that were going slow?
0:41:40 > 0:41:43- Like erm...what's his name, the British guy?- Jackie Stewart.
0:41:43 > 0:41:45Stirling Moss and people like that.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47- Jackie Stewart... - Come on, we need three.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Jackie Stewart.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51- 10 seconds.- OK.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54- Erm...- Go Graham.- Graham Hill.
0:41:54 > 0:41:59- And Jack Villeneuve, did he win it? - Well, let's go for an obscure one...
0:41:59 > 0:42:01Yeah, we'll go that.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03There's your time up.
0:42:03 > 0:42:07Winners of the British Grand Prix - I now need your three answers.
0:42:07 > 0:42:12We just went for Formula 1 drivers' names!
0:42:12 > 0:42:14Jackie Stewart, I hope he won it.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16OK. Jackie Stewart...
0:42:16 > 0:42:17You going for Damon's dad?
0:42:17 > 0:42:21- Yes, Graham Hill.- Graham Hill.
0:42:21 > 0:42:25Jacques Villeneuve as well. We could even have them wrong.
0:42:25 > 0:42:29OK. Of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:42:29 > 0:42:32For obscurity, I'd say Jack Villeneuve.
0:42:32 > 0:42:37- Probably cos he didn't win it, but yeah.- OK, we'll put Jacques Villeneuve last.
0:42:37 > 0:42:41And which is your least likely pointless answer?
0:42:41 > 0:42:44- Between Jackie Stewart and Graham Hill.- Graham Hill.
0:42:44 > 0:42:48OK, so we'll put Graham first, Jackie Stewart second,
0:42:48 > 0:42:49and Villeneuve...
0:42:49 > 0:42:51I apologise to all Formula 1 fans at home
0:42:51 > 0:42:55if we've got all three wrong, but we've tried to be a bit out there.
0:42:55 > 0:42:59OK, so let's put them up on the board in that order And here they are...
0:43:05 > 0:43:08So we were looking for winners of the British Grand Prix.
0:43:08 > 0:43:12Graham Hill was your least confident answer.
0:43:12 > 0:43:18Remember you only have to find one to win £2,500 for your charities.
0:43:18 > 0:43:21Graham Hill - your first shot at the jackpot.
0:43:21 > 0:43:24Is it right, and if it is, how many people said Graham Hill?
0:43:28 > 0:43:30Ohhh!
0:43:30 > 0:43:32He was the one I thought had won it!
0:43:32 > 0:43:34- Oh, no.- His son won it, didn't he?
0:43:34 > 0:43:36Yeah, that was too obvious.
0:43:36 > 0:43:38I'm afraid that's not a pointless answer,
0:43:38 > 0:43:42which means you only have two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:43:42 > 0:43:45OK. We're looking for winners of the British Grand Prix.
0:43:45 > 0:43:49Let's hope nobody said your next answer, Jackie Stewart.
0:43:49 > 0:43:51Jackie Stewart. OK.
0:43:51 > 0:43:56It has to be right and it has to be pointless for you to win that £2,500.
0:43:56 > 0:43:59How many people said Jackie Stewart? Is it right?
0:44:02 > 0:44:08That's more like it. Jackie Stewart is right. This, for £2,500...
0:44:08 > 0:44:11Down it goes into the 40S into the 30S.
0:44:11 > 0:44:14If this goes down to nothing, you leave here with...
0:44:14 > 0:44:17APPLAUSE
0:44:17 > 0:44:1911.
0:44:21 > 0:44:24OK. 11. For Jackie Stewart.
0:44:24 > 0:44:27You only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:44:27 > 0:44:30Everything is riding on Jacques Villeneuve. This is a shot in the dark.
0:44:30 > 0:44:34I remember he went out with Dannii Minogue, that's it.
0:44:34 > 0:44:36Do you know if he even won?
0:44:36 > 0:44:38We don't know!
0:44:38 > 0:44:39We just went for a reasonably obscure one
0:44:39 > 0:44:42that the public might not be so familiar with, and again
0:44:42 > 0:44:48we didn't worry about the British Grand Prix part, we just went for reasonably obscure!
0:44:48 > 0:44:51If you do win, what are your nominated charities, Iwan?
0:44:51 > 0:44:54For myself, I'm an ambassador for Macmillan Cancer Support,
0:44:54 > 0:44:58but I'm also going to split it with the Ron Pickering Memorial Fund,
0:44:58 > 0:45:00which helps up-and-coming athletes.
0:45:00 > 0:45:04So two good charities there. I apologise now in advance to them watching.
0:45:04 > 0:45:06Two excellent charities, very well done.
0:45:06 > 0:45:10APPLAUSE
0:45:10 > 0:45:14And Katharine, how about you?
0:45:14 > 0:45:18I'm an ambassador of the Special Olympics GB,
0:45:18 > 0:45:22to help special needs athletes go around the world and perform.
0:45:22 > 0:45:25So fingers crossed.
0:45:25 > 0:45:28Another excellent charity. Very best of luck to both of you.
0:45:28 > 0:45:31We are looking for winners of the British Grand Prix.
0:45:31 > 0:45:34Your third and final answer was Jacques Villeneuve.
0:45:34 > 0:45:37You said this was your most confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:45:37 > 0:45:40It has to be pointless, has to be correct,
0:45:40 > 0:45:43for you to win that jackpot of £2,500 for your charities.
0:45:43 > 0:45:47Is Jacques Villeneuve right, and if it is, how many people said Jacques Villeneuve?
0:45:53 > 0:45:56- It's right!- Come on. - At least it's right.
0:45:56 > 0:45:58So Jackie Stewart went down to 11,
0:45:58 > 0:46:00Graham Hill was in non-starter,
0:46:00 > 0:46:04but Jacques Villeneuve has everything riding on him.
0:46:04 > 0:46:06- Down he goes.- Come on! Come on!
0:46:06 > 0:46:08- Yes, you've done it! - APPLAUSE
0:46:10 > 0:46:13Oh, very well done.
0:46:15 > 0:46:18Brilliant. Fantastic.
0:46:23 > 0:46:27Oh, congratulations! Jacques Villeneuve was a pointless answer,
0:46:27 > 0:46:33which means you take the jackpot of £2,500 for your charities.
0:46:33 > 0:46:37- It means so much for the charities. - Thank you!
0:46:37 > 0:46:41That was inspired guesswork, though, that was superb.
0:46:41 > 0:46:44Had a weird feeling, but you were looking at me like I was an idiot.
0:46:44 > 0:46:47No, I know absolutely nothing!
0:46:47 > 0:46:52- Never know anything.- It means so much more, cos it's for charity.
0:46:52 > 0:46:57I've never had it a pointless answer when I've watched it.
0:46:57 > 0:47:01I've said to you before. And for charity, and pointless, oh, super!
0:47:01 > 0:47:03Well done, you. Absolutely fantastic.
0:47:09 > 0:47:13- How about that, Richard?- Very well played, that's a real kick off the bend and a dip for the line.
0:47:13 > 0:47:17You did know Villeneuve, it's one of those things that was in
0:47:17 > 0:47:20the back of your head, cos he won it twice.
0:47:20 > 0:47:22He won it in '96 and '97.
0:47:22 > 0:47:27Graham Hill didn't win it - Damon Hill did, in '94, he was 17 points.
0:47:27 > 0:47:29Let's take a look at some other pointless answers.
0:47:29 > 0:47:32The Italian Alberto Ascari won it in '52 and '53,
0:47:32 > 0:47:36the Argentinian Carlos Reutemann, Emerson Fittipaldi, the Brazilian.
0:47:38 > 0:47:42Jacques Villeneuve won it twice. John Watson, the Brit, won it in '82 at Silverstone.
0:47:42 > 0:47:44Gonzales also won it twice.
0:47:44 > 0:47:48And then some big names on the last board - Juan Pablo Montoya, Kimi Raikkonen
0:47:48 > 0:47:50and Rubens Barrichello, all pointless.
0:47:50 > 0:47:53Alan Jones, Jody Scheckter, Fangio, all those pointless as well.
0:47:53 > 0:47:57- Very, very well done, guys. - I can't believe we won it.
0:47:57 > 0:48:00Well, thanks once again to our winning celebrities,
0:48:00 > 0:48:04Iwan and Katharine, who go away with today's jackpot of £2,500.
0:48:04 > 0:48:07CHEERING AND WHISTLING
0:48:10 > 0:48:13And a huge thank you to our other celebrity pairs,
0:48:13 > 0:48:17Sherrie and Carol, Arlene and Alana, Paul and Barry.
0:48:17 > 0:48:20Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test.
0:48:20 > 0:48:24- Meanwhile it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
