0:00:21 > 0:00:24APPLAUSE

0:00:25 > 0:00:27Thank you very much indeed.

0:00:27 > 0:00:29Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and a very warm welcome

0:00:29 > 0:00:32to this special experts' edition of Pointless Celebrities,

0:00:32 > 0:00:34the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.

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

0:00:41 > 0:00:43And couple number one.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46I'm Rachel De Thame and this is my friend and colleague...

0:00:46 > 0:00:49- Diarmuid Gavin. And we're both... - Gardeners.

0:00:49 > 0:00:51Hooray!

0:00:51 > 0:00:53APPLAUSE

0:00:53 > 0:00:55And couple number two!

0:00:55 > 0:00:58I'm Tommy Walsh and some people say

0:00:58 > 0:01:00I'm pretty handy round the house and the garden.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03And I'm Lee Stafford and I'm a hair stylist.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05APPLAUSE

0:01:09 > 0:01:10And couple number three!

0:01:10 > 0:01:14I'm Kim Woodburn, goddess of clean and an author

0:01:14 > 0:01:16and this is my lovely, lovely chef.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19I'm Simon Rimmer, I'm a chef and I present Sunday Brunch on Channel 4.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21APPLAUSE

0:01:24 > 0:01:26And finally, couple number four!

0:01:26 > 0:01:29I'm Olly Smith and I'm a wine expert.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31- And this...- I'm Jilly Goolden

0:01:31 > 0:01:35and I'm a wine expert, but I've also been known to do antiques,

0:01:35 > 0:01:37travel and food, as well.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40But that doesn't make me good at them.

0:01:40 > 0:01:44And these, ladies and gentlemen, are today's contestants!

0:01:44 > 0:01:48Thanks, all of you. We'll find out more about you throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:48 > 0:01:50That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53Combining a soupcon of specificity, a dash of detail

0:01:53 > 0:01:57and a heaped teaspoon of hunk, it's my Pointless friend. It's Richard.

0:01:57 > 0:01:59Hiya.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01Hi, everybody. Hiya.

0:02:01 > 0:02:02There you go.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07- Good evening.- Good evening.- What a nice bunch we've got here.- I know!

0:02:07 > 0:02:10- Aren't they nice?- All experts. - Experts, every one of them.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13Can I just say, didn't you love the way Kim said "author"?

0:02:13 > 0:02:16- I've never heard it said like that before.- Yeah, that was impressive.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19- Say "author" again, just for me. - Author.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21ALEXANDER GIGGLES

0:02:21 > 0:02:23- What about that? - It's quite something, isn't it?

0:02:23 > 0:02:25I'm going to have that as my ringtone.

0:02:25 > 0:02:26LAUGHTER

0:02:26 > 0:02:30Talking of Kim and Simon, they've both been on before.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32They both came on with different partners last time,

0:02:32 > 0:02:35- they both got knocked out in the first round.- Yeah.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Cos Simon made the mistake of coming on with Tim Lovejoy,

0:02:38 > 0:02:41who he presents Sunday Brunch with, and Kim, of course, came on with

0:02:41 > 0:02:45Kerry Katona, and they got knocked out in the first round as well.

0:02:45 > 0:02:46- They should come back as a pair. - Do you think?

0:02:46 > 0:02:49- ALEXANDER LAUGHS - Yeah, I do.

0:02:49 > 0:02:50That I would like to see.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52If you're watching, you two, come on.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55But how desperate are they going to be for you to be knocked out in the first round?

0:02:55 > 0:02:59They don't want you to trade up to a new partner and do well, do they?

0:02:59 > 0:03:02I think, at the end of the day, we're doing for kind of...

0:03:02 > 0:03:04I'm doing it for kind of Team Brunch,

0:03:04 > 0:03:07- so Tim will be rooting for me. - He won't be, he won't be at all.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10- Of course he won't be. Of course he won't be.- No?

0:03:10 > 0:03:14If you go out in the first round, he will be delighted. He'll be so happy.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16The first two questions today are really lovely questions.

0:03:16 > 0:03:21There's something for everyone in the first two. There's nothing to panic about in the first two.

0:03:21 > 0:03:24I think they're all quite fun. The second one's quite difficult.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26- But fun.- In a nice way, yeah. - Thanks very much.

0:03:26 > 0:03:30All our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33Our contestants need to find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer -

0:03:36 > 0:03:38that's an answer that none of our 100 people gave.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Each time that happens, we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43As today's show is a celebrity special,

0:03:43 > 0:03:46and each of our celebrities is playing for a nominated charity,

0:03:46 > 0:03:49we start off with a jackpot of £2,500.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55Right. If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:04:00 > 0:04:04OK. In this first round, I want an answer from each of you, but there is to be no conferring.

0:04:04 > 0:04:09At the end of the round, whichever pair has the highest score will be heading home. OK.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11Our first category today is...

0:04:13 > 0:04:17Pop music. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second?

0:04:19 > 0:04:21And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many

0:04:29 > 0:04:32ABBA UK Top 20 singles as they could.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34ABBA UK Top 20 singles. Richard.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37We're looking for any single released by ABBA that's reached

0:04:37 > 0:04:40the UK Top 20, please. Where they were double A-sides,

0:04:40 > 0:04:43we'll treat each song as a different answer. I hope that's an acceptable first round.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46- That's all right, isn't it?- I think it's all right.- Not too bad.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48It's difficult to know what's the most obscure one,

0:04:48 > 0:04:51- but everyone can have a little go, can't they?- Surely.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54- Is that OK at home? That's all right, isn't it?- I think it's fine.

0:04:54 > 0:04:55I'll change it, I'll change it.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57I think it's fine. Jilly, are you all right with that?

0:04:57 > 0:05:00- You're happy with that? - I'm very happy with that.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03- Jilly's happy with that.- I've got another one.- It's fine, it's fine.

0:05:03 > 0:05:06Diarmuid and Rachel, you all drew lots before the show, and today

0:05:06 > 0:05:10you are going to go first, and Diarmuid, you have stepped up first.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Welcome to the show, Diarmuid, great to have you here.- Thank you.

0:05:13 > 0:05:15You've designed gardens all over the world, haven't you?

0:05:15 > 0:05:19- Yes.- Where is the most exciting place you've designed a garden?

0:05:19 > 0:05:22We're designing a garden at the moment for the White House

0:05:22 > 0:05:25- in Washington, which is pretty exciting.- That's quite exciting.

0:05:25 > 0:05:29There's only one problem. They don't know about it.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31- They do now. - LAUGHTER

0:05:31 > 0:05:34The White House was designed by an Irish architect,

0:05:34 > 0:05:38guy called James Hoban from County Kilkenny,

0:05:38 > 0:05:40and he won an international competition,

0:05:40 > 0:05:43based it on Leinster House, the seat of Irish Government,

0:05:43 > 0:05:47and we reckon they don't have an Irish garden, so we've designed a lovely...

0:05:47 > 0:05:48So what's going to go into the Irish garden?

0:05:48 > 0:05:52Well, it's inspired by the Oval Office, so it's an oval-walled garden

0:05:52 > 0:05:55with an oval pavilion for the president to sit

0:05:55 > 0:06:01- and press a red button.- Nice place to do it! Now, then, Diarmuid, ABBA.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03I remember ABBA, Arrival.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05Do you remember the picture, the album cover of them

0:06:05 > 0:06:08in the helicopter when they were really huge?

0:06:08 > 0:06:11I pretty much remember them winning Eurovision.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14- You were far too young for that. - I think I'm older than you!

0:06:14 > 0:06:16And they're good,

0:06:16 > 0:06:19and I know there's an ABBA museum just about to open in Stockholm,

0:06:19 > 0:06:23I think, so I don't know how good I'll be on obscure ABBA,

0:06:23 > 0:06:25but let's see.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28OK. What are you going to say?

0:06:28 > 0:06:32- The Day Before You Came.- The Day Before You Came, says Diarmuid.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Let's see if that's right and, if so, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40AUDIENCE GROANS

0:06:40 > 0:06:43That is an incorrect answer. That has scored you 100 points.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Maybe they didn't write it yet.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47ALEXANDER LAUGHS

0:06:47 > 0:06:49It's for the reunion. Don't they all get back together?

0:06:49 > 0:06:52I think they do in the end, yes. Richard, what's going on?

0:06:52 > 0:06:55That's a real shame. It's a brilliant song as well.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57It was a single but it wasn't Top 20. It was at 32.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00- It wasn't one of their big hits, I'm afraid.- It was one of their best.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03I agree, so download it, but it still counts as 100 points.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07- Too clever. You were too clever. - Too clever.- I'll tell you what.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10I'll change the question, I'll change the question. This is ridiculous.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13We'll go on, Richard, as it is. It's fine. We'll go on as it is.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16- Now, Lee, welcome...- Thank you. - ..to the show.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19How long have you been cutting hair for?

0:07:19 > 0:07:22- Erm... 20... 31 years now.- Wow.

0:07:22 > 0:07:24You see, that is the perfect training for Pointless,

0:07:24 > 0:07:26cos you're going to know everything.

0:07:26 > 0:07:29All the trivia, all the holiday destinations.

0:07:29 > 0:07:34- But who cuts your hair?- My wife, actually, Jess. What do you think?

0:07:34 > 0:07:38- She'll all right.- She's brilliant. That's a cracking haircut there.

0:07:38 > 0:07:43- Lee, ABBA.- I'm going to go with Knowing Me, Knowing You.- A-ha.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46OK, let's see if that's right and, if it is,

0:07:46 > 0:07:49let's see how many of our 100 people said Knowing Me, Knowing You.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53It's right.

0:07:57 > 0:07:5921.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03Good answer, Lee. 21 for Knowing Me, Knowing You.

0:08:04 > 0:08:09- Well played, Lee. Number one single from 1977.- Thanks very much indeed.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13- Now, Simon. Simon, welcome. I'm loving the beard, Simon.- Thank you.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15It's quite manly, isn't it?

0:08:15 > 0:08:18Now, if you shave your head, as you do,

0:08:18 > 0:08:20where do you decide to end the beard?

0:08:20 > 0:08:21It's a bit of a trial and error.

0:08:21 > 0:08:25What I'm trying to do is gradually... Is it working?

0:08:25 > 0:08:29Yeah, you just got to go "dun" like that and you pick your point.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Or...grow it up to there.

0:08:31 > 0:08:32LAUGHTER

0:08:32 > 0:08:35And then cultivate a little bit of a comb-over, maybe.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37No, no, just grow it up to there. I think it might look good.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39Just try it.

0:08:39 > 0:08:43- I'll do it.- You'd look like one of those sort of... - HE LAUGHS

0:08:43 > 0:08:46You know those things with the iron filings and the magnet?

0:08:46 > 0:08:48- That's what you'd look like. - LAUGHTER

0:08:48 > 0:08:51I've got a really lucrative contract with the people that make those.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53I'm going to go and buy one right away.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Anyway, what are you going to go for? ABBA songs.

0:08:55 > 0:08:59- I'm going to go for Chiquitita. - Chiquitita, says Simon.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02Let's see if that's right and, if so, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:09:04 > 0:09:05It's right.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Well, 21's our best score so far.

0:09:09 > 0:09:10Chiquitita takes you past that.

0:09:10 > 0:09:1211! Look at that, Simon.

0:09:13 > 0:09:17- Where are you now, Lovejoy?- Yeah!

0:09:17 > 0:09:19- 11 for Chiquitita. - Well played, Simon.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22This is already better, isn't it? Number two hit for ABBA.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25- Means "little girl" in Spanish, Chiquitita.- Thanks very much indeed.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29Now, Olly, welcome to the show. A wine expert.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32- You write about wine.- I do.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34I write a weekly column about wine

0:09:34 > 0:09:36and I broadcast about wine on Saturday Kitchen,

0:09:36 > 0:09:40and I taste an awful lot and find out how you say "hangover" in 80 different languages.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43Can you think of any nice... You think, "What have you got to write about tonight?"

0:09:43 > 0:09:47People have to review things. And you have review a bottle, but you review something that's there

0:09:47 > 0:09:49and you just sort of...

0:09:49 > 0:09:51That's quite nice, isn't it?

0:09:51 > 0:09:54- That's your work.- It's terribly good. I mean, you can imagine.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Do reviews just start good and then just...go a bit off by the end?

0:09:57 > 0:10:00It's completely marvellous by the end of every single bottle.

0:10:00 > 0:10:04Essentially you're like a theatre reviewer but you just do the interval.

0:10:04 > 0:10:05LAUGHTER

0:10:05 > 0:10:07That is, in fact, my job description.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10Olly, what did you do before you were a wine reviewer?

0:10:10 > 0:10:12I was a screenwriter for kids' television.

0:10:12 > 0:10:16I wrote for Pingu, Charlie And Lola, a little bit for Wallace And Gromit.

0:10:16 > 0:10:18- I did animation.- Hang on.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20So you did the scripts for Pingu, which is

0:10:20 > 0:10:22basically someone going, "Ong, ong!"

0:10:22 > 0:10:24LAUGHTER

0:10:24 > 0:10:29They talk in Peguinese, actually. It's a language. I speak it.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32- Only understandable after a bottle of wine, I think.- Exactly.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34OK, now, Olly, what are you going to go for?

0:10:34 > 0:10:37So, I'm going to go for The Winner Takes It All.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40The Winner Takes It All, says Olly. Let's see if it's right.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:10:44 > 0:10:45It is right.

0:10:50 > 0:10:5225. Not bad at all.

0:10:52 > 0:10:53Thank you.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Well played, Olly, a number one single from 1980.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00It's almost impossible to play this round

0:11:00 > 0:11:03and not have songs going round your head.

0:11:03 > 0:11:06I remember, the week that The Winner Takes It All was number one in

0:11:06 > 0:11:09the charts, I remember we were listening to the charts in our car

0:11:09 > 0:11:12coming back from holiday, and in the Top Ten that week, there was

0:11:12 > 0:11:15Bob Marley, er... There was just...

0:11:15 > 0:11:19Oops Upside Your Head, Diana Ross, just the most fantastic Top Ten,

0:11:19 > 0:11:23and I remember my dad saying, "Oh, it all sounds the same!"

0:11:23 > 0:11:25LAUGHTER

0:11:25 > 0:11:28Oh, dear. Anyway, there we are. We're halfway through the round.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30Let's take a look at the scores as they stand.

0:11:30 > 0:11:3311 was the lowest score of that pass. Very well done, Simon.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Simon and Kim looking pretty strong on the back of that,

0:11:36 > 0:11:37then up to 21 where we find Lee and Tommy.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41Up to 25, where we find Olly and Jilly, then up to 100,

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Diarmuid and Rachel, where I'm afraid we find you.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46But what we definitely need from you, Rachel, is a low score.

0:11:46 > 0:11:50You've got time to think. Back down the line now. Second players, please step up to the podium.

0:11:54 > 0:11:58OK, Jilly. Welcome, welcome to the show. It's not just wine any more.

0:11:58 > 0:12:02You write about all sorts of things. You're an expert on many things.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06I began with wine, actually, and I was sort of catapulted

0:12:06 > 0:12:11into wine prominence, but I also did antiques. I did travel and food.

0:12:11 > 0:12:12Food, fantastic.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15I've more recently been doing food, actually, but I still...

0:12:15 > 0:12:19My toe is more than steeped in wine, actually.

0:12:19 > 0:12:23Good thing to steep it in, really. Jilly, you're on 25.

0:12:23 > 0:12:27If you can score 74 or less, you will be through to the next round.

0:12:27 > 0:12:30So, an ABBA song.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32Can I just say something? That's very interesting,

0:12:32 > 0:12:36- cos I don't have to go for anything very obscure, do I?- Not really, no.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40- I can go for what I like. - As long as it's by ABBA, yeah.

0:12:40 > 0:12:41JILLY LAUGHS

0:12:41 > 0:12:44Well, I'm going to go for one. It might not be Top 20. SOS.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47SOS, says Jilly. SOS. Here comes your red line.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50If you get below that, you are through to the next round.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52Let's see if SOS is right. Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:12:56 > 0:12:57It is right.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00And you are through to round two. Very well done.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04Look at that, 14. Very well done indeed.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08Takes your total up to 39.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11I think that's only Top Ten single of all time

0:13:11 > 0:13:16- where both the song and the band are palindromes.- Ah!- Yeah.

0:13:16 > 0:13:20Oh, I'm not going to concentrate for the rest of the round now.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23- Don't bother. I'm telling you, it's official.- Is it?- Yeah.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26I don't think there are any competitors out there,

0:13:26 > 0:13:29cos I don't think there are even any bands that have a palindrome.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32- A-ha is a palindrome.- Oh!- A-ha.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35- Did they release a song that was a palindrome, though?- A-ha...

0:13:35 > 0:13:37Well, Bob. But that was a B-side.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39LAUGHTER

0:13:39 > 0:13:41AC/DC CA?

0:13:41 > 0:13:42LAUGHTER

0:13:43 > 0:13:47Anyway, thank you very much indeed. SOS by ABBA.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50Wonderful palindromic answer. Brilliant, Jilly.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Now, Kim, we come to you. I want to ask you one thing, Kim.

0:13:53 > 0:13:57Obviously you're very famous for "How Clean Is Your House?"

0:13:57 > 0:14:00and many, many other things, of course, but my question to you is,

0:14:00 > 0:14:01how clean is your house?

0:14:01 > 0:14:05I can honestly say this to you - I live as you see me on telly.

0:14:05 > 0:14:09- I'm fanatically clean. - Do you have a cleaner?- No, I do not.

0:14:09 > 0:14:13- I am glad for her sake.- They could never clean as well as I do.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15So I do, I am what I am on telly.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17- Sad, isn't it?- It's not!

0:14:17 > 0:14:19I think it's commendable, is what it is, Kim.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22Anyway, what we need from you is a score of 88 or less.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25- Money, Money, Money? - Money, Money, Money says Kim.

0:14:25 > 0:14:26Here comes your red line.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29You get below that, you're through to the next round.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32Let's see how many of our 100 people said Money, Money, Money.

0:14:33 > 0:14:38- It's right, of course, and you are through to the next round.- (Yes!)

0:14:38 > 0:14:4034.

0:14:40 > 0:14:41APPLAUSE

0:14:44 > 0:14:4634 takes your total up to 45.

0:14:46 > 0:14:47Number three hit from 1976.

0:14:47 > 0:14:51- You're going to see what round two is like. How about that?- Mm.- Blimey.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54- We're doing all right, aren't we? - Very exciting indeed.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57Tommy, welcome to the show, it's great to have you here.

0:14:57 > 0:14:58Thank you very much.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01One of your many jobs is, you actually run a building company.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03I don't have much time to do it, really.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06It's, er... Preoccupied with lots of other stuff.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08Things like this, I should imagine, probably don't help.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10I don't think it's going to be too long

0:15:10 > 0:15:13- because Kim actually just gave my answer.- Oh, really?- Yeah.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Oh, listen, there's a ray of hope for Diarmuid and Rachel there.

0:15:16 > 0:15:20Obviously, Money, Money, Money was going to be the answer - he's a builder!

0:15:22 > 0:15:24So, Tommy, just any other ABBA song.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26That's all we need from you.

0:15:27 > 0:15:31- Waterloo?- There you go, another builder's answer, there.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Or is this MY Waterloo?

0:15:33 > 0:15:36OK, there we are. Waterloo, says Tommy.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38There is your red line.

0:15:38 > 0:15:41That represents the 78 or less you need to score to get through.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44Let's see if Waterloo's right and, if it is, how many people said it.

0:15:46 > 0:15:48It's right. Oh!

0:15:48 > 0:15:52- Hey, look at this, Rachel. Look what's happened.- I-I'm looking!

0:15:52 > 0:15:54Tommy, you've scored 86.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58107 is your total. Oh, this is exciting.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Such a big scorer, isn't it?

0:16:00 > 0:16:01What's going to happen now?

0:16:01 > 0:16:03This is what I'm thinking about.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05I'll tell you what - I'll change the question.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08I think it's best we change the question.

0:16:08 > 0:16:10Rachel. Ah, Rachel.

0:16:10 > 0:16:14Now, you studied History of Art.

0:16:14 > 0:16:15You then learned ballet.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18Yes. Other way round but yes.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21You learned ballet, you studied History of Art, run with it.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Then you were a model, an actress, and then into gardening.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27- Why gardening? - Well, I had always loved plants.

0:16:27 > 0:16:31My father was an incredibly keen and natural gardener,

0:16:31 > 0:16:32so I grew up mostly

0:16:32 > 0:16:36being in the garden, going with him to nurseries,

0:16:36 > 0:16:38just doing things in the garden.

0:16:38 > 0:16:39That's how it all came from there.

0:16:39 > 0:16:43Excellent. Now, then. You have a task here.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45You have to score six or less.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47So we want any ABBA UK Top 20 single.

0:16:48 > 0:16:52- I can't think of anything obscure. - Oh, take a deep breath!

0:16:52 > 0:16:55I can only think of one more song, actually,

0:16:55 > 0:16:58and bearing in mind my dancing background, it's Dancing Queen.

0:17:01 > 0:17:03OK, a little-known song. Dancing Queen.

0:17:03 > 0:17:06Here comes your red line, Rachel. It's quite low.

0:17:08 > 0:17:11Let's see if Dancing Queen can get you

0:17:11 > 0:17:13below that red line, Rachel. Best of luck.

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

0:17:19 > 0:17:25Oh, bad luck. 64, Rachel, I'm sorry. Takes your total up to 164.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30Unlucky, Rachel. Not a lot you could have done there.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32It's literally the only other one I could think of.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Diarmuid, if you had your time again,

0:17:34 > 0:17:38- have you got any other obscure answers?- Er, Fernando? Is that...?

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Fernando would have scored you 46.

0:17:40 > 0:17:41Could we run it again?

0:17:41 > 0:17:44Well, you'd still be on 110, so we can if you want.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46We'd still be out.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48The amazing thing is, ABBA, from a long time ago,

0:17:48 > 0:17:51there are no pointless answers amongst their Top 20 singles.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54That's how famous ABBA are. There's a few low scorers, though.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57Let's take a look at the lowest scorers. Well done if you said any of these.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59Summer Night City would have scored you one point.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Lay All Your Love On Me would have scored you four.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Angeleyes would have scored you four.

0:18:03 > 0:18:05Another couple of things that would have seen you through,

0:18:05 > 0:18:07you could have said One of Us or I Have A Dream.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09Both of those would have scored five.

0:18:09 > 0:18:11You would have got six points for The Name Of The Game

0:18:11 > 0:18:15and seven points for Does Your Mother Know. Voulez-Vous, nine points.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17Well done if you said that. Super Trouper, 15.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) would have scored 16.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22Let's take a look at the top three.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24There's only one of these we haven't seen,

0:18:24 > 0:18:28cos Mamma Mia is third with 52, and then we've seen these top two.

0:18:28 > 0:18:29There's Dancing Queen on 64,

0:18:29 > 0:18:32and Tommy gave us Waterloo with 86.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of our first round,

0:18:34 > 0:18:37I'm sorry to say the pair who are going to be heading home

0:18:37 > 0:18:41with our highest score of 164, it's Rachel and Diarmuid.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43But that was a really good effort,

0:18:43 > 0:18:46and you did exactly what we encourage you to do on Pointless,

0:18:46 > 0:18:47which is find a really obscure answer.

0:18:47 > 0:18:52So obscure, it was just on the far side of correct.

0:18:52 > 0:18:55- They'll have to come back, though. - Oh, they'll have to come back.

0:18:55 > 0:18:56- Definitely.- Another time.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59Come back and tell us all about the White House garden.

0:18:59 > 0:19:00Lovely to have you on the show.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03Thank you so much, Rachel and Diarmuid. Lovely contestants.

0:19:05 > 0:19:08But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Oh, it's getting exciting.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18Now only three pairs remain, and at the end of this round,

0:19:18 > 0:19:20we'll be sending another pair away.

0:19:20 > 0:19:25Now then, best individual score there, Simon, was yours, Chiquitita.

0:19:25 > 0:19:29Lovely low score. Best combined score, Jilly and Olly.

0:19:29 > 0:19:30Very good.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33And, er, Lee and Tommy, despite Waterloo,

0:19:33 > 0:19:36Lee, great answering from you, kept you safe. So very well done.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38I think this is going to be very close indeed.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41I wouldn't want to call it. Best of luck to all three pairs.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Our category for Round Two is...

0:19:44 > 0:19:48Modern Languages. Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second?

0:19:50 > 0:19:53And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:19:56 > 0:19:57OK, and the question concerns...

0:19:59 > 0:20:00Oh, brilliant!

0:20:03 > 0:20:05Fruits and Vegetables in German. Richard.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08On each pass, we're going to give you the German names for various

0:20:08 > 0:20:12fruits and veg. You just need to give us the English names, please.

0:20:12 > 0:20:13There's going to be six on each pass.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16- Diarmuid and Rachel would've loved this, wouldn't they?- Wouldn't they?

0:20:16 > 0:20:18Gardeners? They would have loved it.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21- It's going to be fun.- It's going to be great fun, especially for me.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24- Cos you get to do all the... - I get to read them out in German.

0:20:24 > 0:20:28All the pronunciations, yeah. Oh, watch and learn. Watch and learn.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31OK, so we want the English names for these fruit and veg in German.

0:20:31 > 0:20:32And here is our first board.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45I'll read them one last time.

0:20:53 > 0:20:57- That's very good.- I don't know what they are, but it's fun.

0:20:57 > 0:21:02There we go, OK, six fruit and veg in German. Oh, Tommy!

0:21:02 > 0:21:05- What do you make of that? - That's very difficult.

0:21:06 > 0:21:10Cos obviously if you pick the most logical one,

0:21:10 > 0:21:14that's going to be the one with the most points to it.

0:21:14 > 0:21:15So...

0:21:15 > 0:21:17But, if you pick the most logical one, of course,

0:21:17 > 0:21:20you are then removing one of the easier ones

0:21:20 > 0:21:22for other people to answer, which is tactics.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24OK, OK.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27Well, I'm going to go for Artischocke,

0:21:27 > 0:21:31- which is, I think, artichoke. - OK, let's find out.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Artischocke, is it artichoke, and if it is, how many people said it?

0:21:36 > 0:21:38It's right.

0:21:38 > 0:21:42- Ah!- Listen, it's right - that's a lot better than 100. 89.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44APPLAUSE

0:21:46 > 0:21:49- Would have been funny if that wasn't artichoke.- Yeah, wouldn't it?

0:21:49 > 0:21:53Lots of different types of artichoke, they're all separate vegetables.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56- There's a root, Jerusalem one. - Yeah, Jerusalem artichoke.

0:21:56 > 0:21:59- Which is just a root thing, isn't it?- Yeah.- Tastes terrible, yeah.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01And also makes you fart.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03We call them "fartichokes" at home.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05LAUGHTER

0:22:05 > 0:22:08- D'you know what?- Yeah. - That's so childish.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10Why don't you apologise?

0:22:10 > 0:22:12- There's children watching. - When... Sorry.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15Right, do not call artichokes "fartichokes". It's not funny.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Say, "Fartichoke isn't funny."

0:22:18 > 0:22:20It's not funny.

0:22:20 > 0:22:22Fartichoke's not funny.

0:22:22 > 0:22:23LAUGHTER

0:22:24 > 0:22:28- In Germany they would say "Fartischocke."- Yeah.

0:22:28 > 0:22:30That's not funny either.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32OK, now then, Simon.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35We want the English names for these German fruit and veg.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38I think I'm going to take a gamble.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40I don't speak any German at all.

0:22:40 > 0:22:44I'm going to go Blumenkohl, Cauliflower.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46- Oh, that's brilliant. - Good call.- That's a good...

0:22:46 > 0:22:48"Blumen" - flower, presumably.

0:22:48 > 0:22:53And "kohl" - cauli! See?

0:22:53 > 0:22:54It's very easy.

0:22:54 > 0:22:58Simon says Blumenkohl, cauliflower.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00Bit of a gamble, let's see if it's paid off.

0:23:02 > 0:23:04Absolutely right. Well done, Simon.

0:23:09 > 0:23:1111!

0:23:11 > 0:23:13- APPLAUSE - That's what I was going to say.

0:23:13 > 0:23:14That is a great answer.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17Very well done, Simon. Very well worked out. Cracking reasoning.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19Well played, Simon, terrific answer again.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21Got 11 again. You got 11 in the last round.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23Very well done.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26Now, Olly. Olly, you're the last person to have this board.

0:23:26 > 0:23:27How's your German?

0:23:27 > 0:23:30It's, er, reasonable.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32I did a GCSE in German a long time ago,

0:23:32 > 0:23:34and my uncle and aunt are Swiss-German.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38However, I should just say there is a German vacuum from

0:23:38 > 0:23:42a zeppelin above that has sucked all the German words from my brain.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45Er, when you're here under the lights it's very different to

0:23:45 > 0:23:48when Mr Macdonald's barking at you in the GCSE German class.

0:23:48 > 0:23:52I'm going to play - I think Kirsche is cherry.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54Kirsche, cherry, says Olly.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57How many of our 100 people said Kirsche was cherry?

0:23:59 > 0:24:01It is right.

0:24:01 > 0:24:0489 is our high score, 11 is our low.

0:24:04 > 0:24:0743 for Kirsche - nice middling score there, Olly.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Well played. 43.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13Well played, Olly, of course, Kirsch being a cherry spirit.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18Now, the rest of these. Apfel - that's fairly easy.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20- I can do that one, apple. - Yeah, that is apple.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23That would have scored you 87 points.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Erdbeere, d'you know that?

0:24:25 > 0:24:29That's strawberry. And that would have scored you nine points.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31And Pastinake?

0:24:31 > 0:24:32- Parsnip.- That was a parsnip?

0:24:32 > 0:24:34Yeah, that would have scored you seven points

0:24:34 > 0:24:37so it's the best answer up there. Well done if you said that.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40Well, thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round,

0:24:40 > 0:24:41let's look at those scores.

0:24:41 > 0:24:4411 the best score of that pass, Simon, richly deserved.

0:24:44 > 0:24:45Then up to 43 where we find Olly and Jilly.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48Then up to 89 where we find Tommy and Lee.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51So, yeah, Lee, we're going to need a low score from you.

0:24:51 > 0:24:54- Maybe the next board will be a bit easier.- Hope so.- How's your German?

0:24:54 > 0:24:55- Terrible.- OK. Very best of luck.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57We're going to come back down the line.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:25:02 > 0:25:05OK, let's put six more German fruit and veg up on our board.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08And here they are. We have got...

0:25:15 > 0:25:17I'll read those all one last time.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28Now, remember, we are looking for the English names, Jilly,

0:25:28 > 0:25:29for these German fruit and veg.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32Jilly, I think you're going to be brilliant at this.

0:25:32 > 0:25:33I think you secretly know all of those.

0:25:33 > 0:25:38I'm monolingual, Alexander, I'm afraid. It is very unfortunate,

0:25:38 > 0:25:41but German has passed me by totally.

0:25:41 > 0:25:44Well, just to put you in the context of everything,

0:25:44 > 0:25:46if you can score 45 or less,

0:25:46 > 0:25:48you are definitely through to the head-to-head.

0:25:48 > 0:25:52It's a lot of pressure because I only know one.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55And I think it's the one that everybody else will know.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58I'm kind of hovering on one of them, which is difficult,

0:25:58 > 0:26:02and I could blow it, and I don't want to blow it for Olly,

0:26:02 > 0:26:05so I'm going to go for tomato as Tomate.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08Tomate, tomato, says Jilly.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11OK, here's your red line. It's nice and middling.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13I'm not going to go below it.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16Let's see, though, how close to it you can get with tomato for Tomate.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20- It's right, whee!- Oh, no!

0:26:20 > 0:26:2496. 96, takes your total up to 139.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27I think that's not bad - I think that may get you through.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29Well, we always say it's a lot better than 100.

0:26:29 > 0:26:33- It's a BIT better than 100, isn't it?- Thank you, Richard.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36Now, Kim. Kim, I have

0:26:36 > 0:26:38- great news for you.- What? - You know how you came

0:26:38 > 0:26:40flying through into the second round?

0:26:40 > 0:26:42- Yes.- You are flying through to the third round.

0:26:42 > 0:26:46You are in the head-to-head even before you've given your answer.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48- I just know that. - Oh, gosh, thank you.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49Even if you score 100 points

0:26:49 > 0:26:52you won't overtake Jilly and Olly on 139.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54I think I know two of these but I can't...

0:26:54 > 0:26:56I'm just going to go for... I think I know two

0:26:56 > 0:26:58but I'm going to give you one.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00- Ananas is banana, I think.- Ananas...

0:27:00 > 0:27:02- I think it's a banana.- Banana.

0:27:02 > 0:27:04I could be wrong, but I think it is.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06OK, banana. Let's see if that's right.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08No red line for you as you're already through,

0:27:08 > 0:27:09so it doesn't matter if it's wrong.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11Let's find out if it's right.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15Oh, bad luck, Kim. Bad luck.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17I'm afraid an incorrect answer there -

0:27:17 > 0:27:20scores you the maximum of 100 points. Takes your total up to 111.

0:27:20 > 0:27:22But you are through to the next round.

0:27:22 > 0:27:23Sorry, Kim, worth a go there.

0:27:23 > 0:27:26The German for banana is actually "Banane".

0:27:26 > 0:27:29And I thought it would be too obvious if I put it up there.

0:27:30 > 0:27:35Thanks very much indeed. Now, Lee. This is where it gets interesting.

0:27:35 > 0:27:36Let me just put it all into context.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40You have to score 49 or less to stay with us.

0:27:40 > 0:27:4349 or less, but if you like...

0:27:43 > 0:27:45Don't know no German!

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Yeah.

0:27:47 > 0:27:50Oh, dear. Fenchel, what could Fenchel be?

0:27:50 > 0:27:52No, Fen-kyull?

0:27:52 > 0:27:54- Fen-chel?- I don't know.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56You can talk us through the board, if you like,

0:27:56 > 0:27:58and just chew these fruit and veg over.

0:27:58 > 0:28:01Moh-ree? Mo-huree?

0:28:01 > 0:28:02Kartoffel?

0:28:02 > 0:28:04- LEE LAUGHS - Kartoffel?

0:28:05 > 0:28:08Kartoffel. Kartoffel.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10Erbse.

0:28:13 > 0:28:16I'm just going to have to take a guess, ain't I?

0:28:16 > 0:28:18I'm going to go Fenchel, chilli.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21Fenchel, chilli.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23- Might be fennel.- Fenchel, chilli. - Fennel.

0:28:23 > 0:28:26Is that what Fenchel is? There's your red line.

0:28:26 > 0:28:28Get below that, you're in the next round.

0:28:31 > 0:28:33No, bad luck, Lee.

0:28:33 > 0:28:35I'm really sorry, that's an incorrect answer,

0:28:35 > 0:28:39scores you the maximum of 100 points. Takes your total up to 189.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42Sorry, Lee, I can see where you're going with the "chel" at the end.

0:28:42 > 0:28:45Actually "chilli pepper" in German is "Chilipfeffer".

0:28:45 > 0:28:49So again, I didn't bother. Fennel is the answer, Fenchel. It would

0:28:49 > 0:28:53have scored 49 points as well, would have seen you through by one point.

0:28:53 > 0:28:56- Oh.- Never mind.- Now, let's go through the rest of these.

0:28:56 > 0:28:59Ananas is actually pineapple.

0:28:59 > 0:29:01Ananas, it would have scored you 33.

0:29:01 > 0:29:04Mohre is carrot.

0:29:04 > 0:29:06That would have scored you 4.

0:29:06 > 0:29:08- No clue there at all.- Is Erbse peas?

0:29:08 > 0:29:13Erbse is pea - again, absolutely no clue. 5 points.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15And Kartoffel, do you know kartoffel?

0:29:15 > 0:29:20- Potato.- Potato. It is potato. Well done, Olly, yes.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22Potato, 23 points.

0:29:22 > 0:29:23Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26Well, at the end of that round, I'm really sorry, Tommy and Lee.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29It's been lovely having you on the show, though. Come back and play again.

0:29:29 > 0:29:32But meantime thanks very much for playing this time.

0:29:32 > 0:29:33Lee and Tommy, brilliant.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for the head-to-head.

0:29:40 > 0:29:42APPLAUSE

0:29:44 > 0:29:47Congratulations, Simon and Kim, Jilly and Olly,

0:29:47 > 0:29:49you are now one step closer to the final

0:29:49 > 0:29:53and a chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands at £2,500.

0:29:53 > 0:29:55APPLAUSE

0:29:56 > 0:29:59Now, we have to decide who's going to play for that money

0:29:59 > 0:30:01and to do that you're now going to go head-to-head

0:30:01 > 0:30:03but the big difference is you're now allowed to confer.

0:30:03 > 0:30:07The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:30:07 > 0:30:09Now, Simon, Blumenkohl -

0:30:09 > 0:30:12- a highlight, a high point of today's show.- Thank you.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15Many congratulations. Jilly, you gave us Tomate, didn't you?

0:30:15 > 0:30:17I'm afraid I did, I'm a bit ashamed of that.

0:30:17 > 0:30:20- Yeah, but I think I heard you saying that Ananas was pineapple.- I know.

0:30:20 > 0:30:22- I think you knew that one. - I did know it.

0:30:22 > 0:30:24And you were just a little bit scared of it.

0:30:24 > 0:30:26I just... Well, because, you know,

0:30:26 > 0:30:29I didn't want to let Olly down and I thought, "If I really say something that's wrong..."

0:30:29 > 0:30:32I knew it was pineapple and I'm afraid when Kim said "banana"

0:30:32 > 0:30:35I thought, "No, it's not, it's not, it's pineapple."

0:30:35 > 0:30:37Well, the good thing is from now on you don't give

0:30:37 > 0:30:40- an answer before you've had a good chat.- Yes, a chat.

0:30:40 > 0:30:42- It will just reassure you. - We like chats.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44This is going to be a very exciting third round.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.

0:30:47 > 0:30:49APPLAUSE

0:30:52 > 0:30:56OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...

0:30:58 > 0:31:00Performances at the Tony Awards. Richard.

0:31:00 > 0:31:03Yeah, we're going to show you five stills now from musicals that

0:31:03 > 0:31:06have been nominated for Tony Awards since the year 2000.

0:31:06 > 0:31:09Can you identify the musicals from these stills, please?

0:31:09 > 0:31:10Very best of luck.

0:31:10 > 0:31:14OK, let's reveal our five Tony Award appearances and here they are.

0:31:14 > 0:31:15We have got...

0:31:40 > 0:31:41There we are, five musicals.

0:31:41 > 0:31:45Simon and Kim, obviously you played best throughout the show

0:31:45 > 0:31:46so far so you get to go first.

0:31:48 > 0:31:51- I don't know the D and I don't know...- No.

0:31:53 > 0:31:56That is definitely Poppins. Do you know the guy at the top?

0:31:56 > 0:31:59It's Spamalot. Yeah, definitely. OK.

0:31:59 > 0:32:03Well, we're going to go for answer A and we think it's Spamalot.

0:32:03 > 0:32:07- A, Spamalot. - Yeah.- Now then, Jilly and Olly.

0:32:08 > 0:32:11I think B is Mary Poppins.

0:32:11 > 0:32:13C, I'm not entirely sure

0:32:13 > 0:32:15of the name of it but it looks Muppetty.

0:32:15 > 0:32:19D could be Rock Of Ages but it's not clear and E, Shrek.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22Shrek is obvious, yes. Don't go for E.

0:32:22 > 0:32:27- No, I'm confident about B being Mary Poppins.- Are you really? OK.

0:32:27 > 0:32:29You've got your glasses on.

0:32:29 > 0:32:32- Yeah, because you've got the "Chim Chimney", what's his name?- OK, yeah.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34"Chim Chimney" and the two girls, chimney sweep,

0:32:34 > 0:32:36and Mary Poppins in the red and the lovely dress.

0:32:36 > 0:32:40Favourite film of my two daughters, can't possibly fail.

0:32:40 > 0:32:42- Probably will now fail. - JILLY LAUGHS

0:32:42 > 0:32:45- Shall we go B?- Go for it. Go for it. - B, Mary Poppins.

0:32:45 > 0:32:47OK, you're going to go with Mary Poppins,

0:32:47 > 0:32:49so we have Simon and Kim saying Spamalot. Let's see

0:32:49 > 0:32:52if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:32:54 > 0:32:55It's right.

0:33:01 > 0:33:04That's a good answer, very well done. 11 for Spamalot.

0:33:04 > 0:33:05APPLAUSE

0:33:07 > 0:33:10Very well done. Jilly and Olly have gone for Mary Poppins.

0:33:10 > 0:33:12B, Mary Poppins. Let's see if that's right

0:33:12 > 0:33:15and, if it is, let's see how many people said Mary Poppins.

0:33:17 > 0:33:19It's right.

0:33:19 > 0:33:22- Ooh, 89.- Oh, Olly. - Yes, I'm so sorry.

0:33:22 > 0:33:25Well, if you didn't know the obscurer ones

0:33:25 > 0:33:28I imagine Spamalot was going to be hard to beat. But Simon and Kim,

0:33:28 > 0:33:30very well done. After one question you are up 1-0.

0:33:30 > 0:33:31Very well played.

0:33:31 > 0:33:34There's a couple of answers there that would have beaten Spamalot.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37C would have beaten Spamalot. I know people are going to know this.

0:33:37 > 0:33:40- It's Avenue Q.- Avenue Q, yes, is the answer there.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42It would have scored you 10 points.

0:33:42 > 0:33:46Now, the winner of the best musical in the Tonys in 2012 was this.

0:33:46 > 0:33:49Based on the Irish film, it's Once.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52Coming over to the West End as well. A pointless answer

0:33:52 > 0:33:54so very well done if you said that.

0:33:54 > 0:33:56And now E is obviously Shrek The Musical

0:33:56 > 0:33:59and that would have scored you 96.

0:33:59 > 0:34:01- You did better.- OK.

0:34:01 > 0:34:04There are essentially four people at home sitting at home going,

0:34:04 > 0:34:06"First Tomate, now this! This is impossible!"

0:34:06 > 0:34:08LAUGHTER

0:34:08 > 0:34:11Thanks very much indeed. OK, so here comes your second question.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13Jilly and Olly, you will get to answer this first

0:34:13 > 0:34:15but you have to win it to stay in the game.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17Good luck. It concerns...

0:34:19 > 0:34:20- Oh, Gawd!- Pop Art. Richard.

0:34:20 > 0:34:23We're going to give you five clues to facts about the pop art movement.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26Can you give us the most obscure answer? Good luck.

0:34:26 > 0:34:29OK, let's reveal our five clues and here they are. We have got...

0:34:49 > 0:34:51I'll read those all one last time.

0:35:07 > 0:35:09There we are. Jilly and Olly, you will go first.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12THEY WHISPER

0:35:12 > 0:35:14I don't know any of the others.

0:35:16 > 0:35:20(David Hockney was born in Bradford or somewhere like that but that's quite obvious.)

0:35:20 > 0:35:22THEY WHISPER

0:35:22 > 0:35:24Don't know.

0:35:25 > 0:35:28Can we do some more ABBA ones?

0:35:32 > 0:35:35OK, Jilly and Olly, what are you going to go for?

0:35:35 > 0:35:37JILLY WHISPERS

0:35:37 > 0:35:41The only one we're confident of is the type of fruit on the cover

0:35:41 > 0:35:44of the Velvet Underground & Nico album.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46We very much wish we were confident on all of them,

0:35:46 > 0:35:50but I think we're going to go with that one, which may be very widely known.

0:35:52 > 0:35:54what is it?

0:35:55 > 0:35:56- Banana.- Oh, Ananas, yes!

0:35:56 > 0:36:01No, that's pineapple. Ananas is pineapple!

0:36:01 > 0:36:04OK. And Simon and Kim, what are you going to go for?

0:36:04 > 0:36:08OK, well, I have no idea on the first one.

0:36:08 > 0:36:10Talk us through them.

0:36:10 > 0:36:14I don't know at all. The second one is obviously Sgt Pepper's.

0:36:14 > 0:36:21The third one down are the Chim Chimneys.

0:36:21 > 0:36:23No, I've no idea of that one at all.

0:36:23 > 0:36:25I agree with Olly on the fourth one

0:36:25 > 0:36:28and I'm going to go with the fifth answer,

0:36:28 > 0:36:31the city where David Hockney was born, which is Bradford.

0:36:31 > 0:36:34Bradford? OK, so we have banana and we have Bradford.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36Jilly and Olly, you have gone for banana.

0:36:36 > 0:36:40Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said banana.

0:36:42 > 0:36:43It is right.

0:36:45 > 0:36:48You want to be sure this scores low so you stay with us.

0:36:48 > 0:36:5224. OK, 24. Are you happy with 24?

0:36:52 > 0:36:54Moderately... Moderately happy.

0:36:54 > 0:36:59Now then, Simon and Kim have said Bradford, the city where David Hockney was born.

0:36:59 > 0:37:02I think you knew this one, didn't you, Jilly?

0:37:02 > 0:37:05I did know this one - this was my only one. My only contribution.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07But you felt this was a high scorer?

0:37:09 > 0:37:10Yes, I did.

0:37:10 > 0:37:12OK, well, let's put it to the test.

0:37:12 > 0:37:16You've gone banana, they've gone Bradford. Let's see if it's right.

0:37:16 > 0:37:18Let's see how many people said Bradford.

0:37:21 > 0:37:22It's right.

0:37:26 > 0:37:30It wins! Bradford wins. 10 for Bradford.

0:37:35 > 0:37:38Oh, very well done, Simon and Kim.

0:37:38 > 0:37:40Last time you were on the show, out first round.

0:37:40 > 0:37:44This time, you are through to the final, 2-0. Very well done indeed.

0:37:44 > 0:37:46Practice makes perfect!

0:37:46 > 0:37:47Unlucky, Jilly and Olly.

0:37:47 > 0:37:51I know you knew Bradford, it would have been a great answer. You just went for the wrong one.

0:37:51 > 0:37:54The critic credited with coining the term is a tough one.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56Very well done if you said Lawrence Alloway.

0:37:56 > 0:37:58Would have scored you one point.

0:37:58 > 0:38:00The Beatles album is Sgt Pepper's.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03Peter Blake got paid £200 for it.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05Would have scored 38 points.

0:38:05 > 0:38:08The English collective widely credited with fathering pop art,

0:38:08 > 0:38:11that included Richard Hamilton and Eduardo Paolozzi,

0:38:11 > 0:38:13was the Independent Group.

0:38:13 > 0:38:17That was a pointless answer so very well done if you said that.

0:38:17 > 0:38:18I'm impressed with our 100 people.

0:38:18 > 0:38:22They're not good on tomato but on Lawrence Alloway, that was...

0:38:22 > 0:38:25I'm guessing the person who got Lawrence Alloway got tomato as well.

0:38:25 > 0:38:30If that was one of the four people that didn't get tomato, then something is up.

0:38:30 > 0:38:31Thanks very much indeed.

0:38:31 > 0:38:34OK, so the pair leaving us at the end of our head-to-head round

0:38:34 > 0:38:37is Jilly and Olly. You had the chops to win this.

0:38:37 > 0:38:40It's just, er, you picked the wrong one.

0:38:40 > 0:38:44- We did.- You knew a low-scoring answer.- We did. We'd love to come back, though, if you'll have us.

0:38:44 > 0:38:48- Will you please come back? It's been lovely having you.- We'll bring the wine!- Fantastic!

0:38:48 > 0:38:51You can come back as often as you like!

0:38:51 > 0:38:54And maybe even be on the show again!

0:38:54 > 0:38:56Jilly and Olly, it's been lovely having you on,

0:38:56 > 0:38:59thank you so much for playing, wonderful contestants.

0:39:01 > 0:39:04But for Simon and Kim, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:39:09 > 0:39:12Huge congratulations to you, Simon and Kim.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15You've given all your competition the marching orders

0:39:15 > 0:39:17and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19Very well done indeed.

0:39:24 > 0:39:27You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:39:27 > 0:39:31At the end of today, the jackpot stands at £2,500.

0:39:36 > 0:39:40You have done so well. What happened last time?

0:39:40 > 0:39:43You've gone away and you've learned, I think - that's what it is.

0:39:43 > 0:39:46Defeat makes us stronger, Alexander. You know that.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49We've gone away, we've come back, having been battle weary

0:39:49 > 0:39:52but we've risen above the challenge.

0:39:52 > 0:39:55You're like one of those X Factor contestants that comes back

0:39:55 > 0:39:59and everyone goes, "Hang on, we've seen you before!"

0:39:59 > 0:40:01Did I not mention that I'm doing this for my nan?

0:40:01 > 0:40:04Yeah, no, yeah, you did, yeah.

0:40:04 > 0:40:06An incredible journey, Alexander, an incredible journey.

0:40:06 > 0:40:09You've given it 120%.

0:40:09 > 0:40:12You've made it your own, Kim.

0:40:12 > 0:40:14I'll tell you what's interesting.

0:40:14 > 0:40:16Three brilliant answers from you today.

0:40:16 > 0:40:22Chiquitita, Blumenkohl and Spamalot all scored 11.

0:40:22 > 0:40:26That's spooky, isn't it? What would you like to come up in this last round?

0:40:26 > 0:40:30Gosh, anything we could answer.

0:40:30 > 0:40:33I think I've been quite lucky with what we've had so far,

0:40:33 > 0:40:34so I think may luck my well run out now.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37- I'll tell you what I would hate to come up.- Go on.

0:40:37 > 0:40:38I'd hate anything horticultural.

0:40:38 > 0:40:41Growing fruit and veg, I can get that as a chef.

0:40:41 > 0:40:45Anything that is to do with flowers, fauna, flora - useless,

0:40:45 > 0:40:46absolutely terrible.

0:40:46 > 0:40:48OK, well, best of luck.

0:40:48 > 0:40:50As always, you start this round off by choosing a category

0:40:50 > 0:40:54and you have four choices to choose from. They are...

0:41:00 > 0:41:03What do you fancy? I fancy rock and punk, if I'm honest.

0:41:03 > 0:41:07I fancy 1990s Britain but are you very good on that?

0:41:07 > 0:41:11I'm happy to do 1990s Britain if you feel confident in that.

0:41:11 > 0:41:13It's better that we both have confidence.

0:41:15 > 0:41:17Do you know a lot about Rock & Punk?

0:41:17 > 0:41:20I reckon it's my strongest out of those four, I would hazard.

0:41:21 > 0:41:25- You would say Rock & Punk?- Yeah. - Well, do it.- Sure?

0:41:25 > 0:41:27Yes, because you're much brighter than me.

0:41:28 > 0:41:32This gentleman is a lot brighter than me and if he says to me,

0:41:32 > 0:41:37"I know that topic very well," and he has tackled what he didn't know very well and we got this far,

0:41:37 > 0:41:39- I'm going to go with Rock & Punk. - OK.

0:41:39 > 0:41:41Rock & Punk it's going to be. Richard?

0:41:41 > 0:41:45We'll to give you three options within this category. Take your answers from any of these.

0:41:45 > 0:41:49Very, very best of luck. I hope one of them suits you. We're looking for...

0:42:08 > 0:42:10Best of luck at home and best of luck in the studio.

0:42:10 > 0:42:12I hope it's a good category for you.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15OK, now, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers

0:42:15 > 0:42:18and to win that jackpot for your chosen charities.

0:42:18 > 0:42:22All you have to do is find one pointless answer amongst those three answers you give.

0:42:22 > 0:42:24The answers you give can be from any of these categories.

0:42:24 > 0:42:28It can be all three from one category, one from each - it's entirely up to you.

0:42:28 > 0:42:31Just say which category it's from when you give your answer.

0:42:31 > 0:42:35- OK, are you ready?- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.

0:42:35 > 0:42:38There they are. Your time starts now.

0:42:38 > 0:42:40Have you any thoughts at this point?

0:42:41 > 0:42:43What about...

0:42:43 > 0:42:45I know nothing about Blink 182.

0:42:45 > 0:42:47I don't and I'm not...

0:42:48 > 0:42:52I can think of a couple of Sex Pistols songs that may be...

0:42:52 > 0:42:54They did a cover version of Eddie Cochran's C'mon Everybody,

0:42:54 > 0:42:58which I think might be fairly low.

0:42:58 > 0:42:59And then...they did My Way

0:42:59 > 0:43:02but I think that might have been Sid Vicious on his own,

0:43:02 > 0:43:03rather than Sex Pistols.

0:43:03 > 0:43:06Green Day, the only thing I know by them as an album is American Idiot,

0:43:06 > 0:43:09which I can't imagine would be a zero.

0:43:09 > 0:43:12I know very little about them, I'll be honest with you.

0:43:13 > 0:43:16- This is where my luck has run out. - Oh, my love, come on.

0:43:16 > 0:43:20I'm gambling all on C'mon Everybody by The Sex Pistols.

0:43:20 > 0:43:24- I can't think of anything, other than...- Ten seconds left.

0:43:24 > 0:43:26..God Save The Queen.

0:43:26 > 0:43:30Anarchy In The UK. Maybe we should go with three Sex Pistols songs

0:43:30 > 0:43:32and have a little punt on that.

0:43:34 > 0:43:35OK, that's your time up.

0:43:35 > 0:43:38Simon, the spotlight is going to fall on you now.

0:43:38 > 0:43:41I now need your three answers. What are you going to say?

0:43:41 > 0:43:45We're going to go from Sex Pistols UK top 75 singles.

0:43:45 > 0:43:48- I'm going to go for C'mon Everybody.- C'mon Everybody.

0:43:48 > 0:43:51I'm going to go for, er, Anarchy In The UK.

0:43:51 > 0:43:54- Anarchy In The UK.- And I'm going to take a chance on My Way,

0:43:54 > 0:43:57- but I think that was Sid Vicious on his own.- My Way.

0:43:57 > 0:44:01- Of those three, which is your best shot at a Pointless answer? - C'mon Everybody.- We'll put it last.

0:44:01 > 0:44:03Which is your least likely to be Pointless?

0:44:03 > 0:44:06Er...let's go Anarchy In The UK.

0:44:06 > 0:44:08My Way we'll pop in the middle.

0:44:08 > 0:44:12Let's put those up on the board in that order and here they are. We have got...

0:44:17 > 0:44:21Very, very best of luck. Your first answer was Anarchy In The UK.

0:44:21 > 0:44:23If this is right and it is pointless,

0:44:23 > 0:44:26it will win that £2,500 jackpot for your charities.

0:44:26 > 0:44:28What are your charities? Simon?

0:44:28 > 0:44:31It's the Wirral Toy Library, which is a really lovely charity that gives respite care

0:44:31 > 0:44:35to physically and mentally handicapped kids on the Wirral.

0:44:35 > 0:44:37APPLAUSE

0:44:38 > 0:44:42Mine is Hospice in the Weald, near Tunbridge Wells.

0:44:42 > 0:44:46I've done a lot of work for them and I got recently to visit a lady.

0:44:46 > 0:44:48She was passing and she said, "Can I see Kim?"

0:44:48 > 0:44:52I went in and she said, "D'you know, Kim, this is a fabulous place.

0:44:52 > 0:44:56"I've had a wonderful six weeks here." To me, Hospice in the Weald every time.

0:44:56 > 0:45:00Excellent. Very well done. Two great charities there.

0:45:01 > 0:45:03Three very good answers on the board.

0:45:03 > 0:45:06Let's hope one of them wins that jackpot for your charities.

0:45:06 > 0:45:09Best of luck. Anarchy In The UK for £2,500.

0:45:09 > 0:45:13Let's find out if it was a Sex Pistols UK Top 75 hit.

0:45:17 > 0:45:19It was.

0:45:19 > 0:45:21Now, all it has to do is go all the way down to zero

0:45:21 > 0:45:25and you will leave with that cheque for £2,500.

0:45:25 > 0:45:26Going down through the teens.

0:45:26 > 0:45:28Oh, 12.

0:45:32 > 0:45:34But Simon, you knew what you were doing when you ordered these.

0:45:34 > 0:45:37- You ranked these very, very carefully.- Yeah.

0:45:37 > 0:45:40- You knew that wasn't going to be pointless.- No.

0:45:40 > 0:45:42There are some good answers on the board, though.

0:45:42 > 0:45:46- I think this one might be a wrong answer.- Well, it was in the Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle, wasn't it?

0:45:46 > 0:45:50I can't remember whether it was listed under a Sid Vicious solo single

0:45:50 > 0:45:52or whether it actually came as a Sex Pistols single.

0:45:52 > 0:45:55In my head, it was a solo, but hopefully I'm wrong.

0:45:55 > 0:46:01OK, hopefully you are. For £2,500, is My Way a Sex Pistols Top 75 hit?

0:46:04 > 0:46:06It is! Very well done.

0:46:06 > 0:46:10Your first answer was Anarchy In The UK, it took us down to 12.

0:46:10 > 0:46:14Your second answer, My Way, taking us down through the teens

0:46:14 > 0:46:16into single figures, there we go. Down it goes.

0:46:16 > 0:46:19Still going and you've done it! Very well done indeed!

0:46:22 > 0:46:26- That is superb, come here, very well done. That's brilliant!- He did know about it, didn't he?

0:46:26 > 0:46:28- He did.- So wonderful!- Fantastic.

0:46:28 > 0:46:31APPLAUSE DROWNS SPEECH

0:46:35 > 0:46:37Oh, Simon! Kim!

0:46:37 > 0:46:41He knew about his rock and his punk, which I don't.

0:46:41 > 0:46:42Congratulations!

0:46:42 > 0:46:45My Way was a pointless answer, which means you go away

0:46:45 > 0:46:48with our jackpot of £2,500 for your charities.

0:46:48 > 0:46:50Brilliant, well done you.

0:46:50 > 0:46:54- Thank you.- What about that, Richard? - Absolutely amazing, well done.

0:46:54 > 0:46:56We had four lovely pairs today. It's been such a lovely show.

0:46:56 > 0:46:59Two great deserving causes, I'm so glad you won.

0:46:59 > 0:47:02C'mon Everybody, also a pointless answer!

0:47:02 > 0:47:04CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:47:10 > 0:47:12Not bad going, was it?

0:47:12 > 0:47:15Both from the soundtrack of The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle.

0:47:15 > 0:47:21Let's take a look at the pointless answers for all the categories in case you did a different one at home.

0:47:21 > 0:47:24(I'm Not Your) Stepping Stone. The Sex Pistols did a cover of that.

0:47:24 > 0:47:27No One Is Innocent was the double A-side with My Way.

0:47:27 > 0:47:32Silly Thing and C'mon Everybody. Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle would also have been a Pointless answer.

0:47:32 > 0:47:33Very well done if you said any of those.

0:47:37 > 0:47:39Their first hit - big hit - What's My Age Again?

0:47:39 > 0:47:42That was pointless, so very well done if you said that.

0:47:42 > 0:47:46For Green Day albums, 21st Century Breakdown was a pointless answer.

0:47:46 > 0:47:49Their very first album, 39 Smooth, and Nimrod as well.

0:47:49 > 0:47:52Very, very well done if you got any of those at home.

0:47:52 > 0:47:56- Terrific work, so glad you came back! - Thank you so, so much.

0:47:56 > 0:47:59Thanks again to our winning players, Simon and Kim,

0:47:59 > 0:48:03who go away with today's jackpot of £2,500 for their charities.

0:48:03 > 0:48:06- Very well done indeed. - Thank you very much.

0:48:08 > 0:48:11Join us next time when we'll put more obscure knowledge to the test.

0:48:11 > 0:48:15- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
