Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to this special

0:00:230:00:26

'90s edition of Pointless Celebrities,

0:00:260:00:28

the show where the more obscure your knowledge,

0:00:280:00:30

the better your chances of winning.

0:00:300:00:32

Let's meet today's Pointless Celebrities.

0:00:320:00:34

And couple number one.

0:00:380:00:40

I'm Ulrika Jonsson and I'm a '90s throwback from Gladiators.

0:00:400:00:45

That's right. You're not a throwback, though!

0:00:450:00:48

And I am one of those said Gladiators.

0:00:480:00:50

I was Jet on the Gladiators, but you can call me Diane.

0:00:500:00:53

APPLAUSE

0:00:530:00:56

And couple number two.

0:00:580:00:59

Yes, I'm Terry Christian, an award-winning broadcaster

0:00:590:01:03

and a Manchester United fan.

0:01:030:01:05

BOOING

0:01:050:01:07

-That worked(!)

-I'm Katie Puckrik and I'm a TV and radio presenter

0:01:070:01:11

and a survivor of a funny little show called The Word.

0:01:110:01:15

ALEXANDER CHEERS

0:01:150:01:17

APPLAUSE

0:01:170:01:20

-Couple number three.

-Well, I'm that Trevor out of that Trev and Simon.

0:01:200:01:24

And I'm the Simon out of Trev and Simon

0:01:240:01:26

and in the '90s, we used to swing our pants.

0:01:260:01:29

And I'm a Manchester City supporter!

0:01:290:01:31

CHEERING

0:01:310:01:34

And finally, couple number four.

0:01:360:01:39

-I'm Fred from Right Said Fred.

-And I'm Richard from Right Said Fred.

0:01:390:01:43

It says so there. And we are a group.

0:01:430:01:45

APPLAUSE

0:01:460:01:48

-That's it.

-And these are today's contestants.

0:01:500:01:54

APPLAUSE

0:01:540:01:56

Thanks very much, all of you.

0:01:560:01:57

We'll find out more about you as the show goes along.

0:01:570:01:59

That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:590:02:02

He's made grown men cry, but not me.

0:02:020:02:05

Not for a while, at least.

0:02:050:02:06

It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.

0:02:060:02:08

Hiya. Hi, everybody. APPLAUSE

0:02:080:02:11

-Good evening to you.

-Good evening.

-What a brilliant line-up.

0:02:130:02:16

-This is great fun. A '90s special.

-Yeah.

0:02:160:02:19

The '90s to me, mean just one word,

0:02:190:02:22

which is rave.

0:02:220:02:23

As you know. Massive raver. Huge. Just such a...

0:02:230:02:26

The first time we ever met, 1991, in The Warehouse,

0:02:260:02:30

-just outside Bracknell.

-Yeah.

-Great days.

0:02:300:02:34

Here we are. 20-odd years later.

0:02:340:02:37

-Oh, is it really?

-Now, there's a few people who've played before.

0:02:370:02:40

Ulrika's been on before, with Ronan Rivron. Terry has been on before.

0:02:400:02:43

Trevor and Simon have been on together before, as well.

0:02:430:02:46

Got through to the second round, gents, didn't you?

0:02:460:02:48

So, we've got a little bit of experience,

0:02:480:02:50

but no-one who's actually won the show before,

0:02:500:02:52

so it should be an absolute cracker.

0:02:520:02:54

-Shall I start us off with a little song?

-Yeah.

0:02:540:02:57

MUSIC: No Good (Start The Dance) by The Prodigy

0:02:570:03:02

There we go. There we go. APPLAUSE

0:03:140:03:17

-Whoa.

-Let's have it, shall we?

-What about that? Yeah, let's do it.

0:03:190:03:24

-Thank you very much.

-Actually, I, sort of, need a cup of tea now.

0:03:240:03:27

LAUGHTER

0:03:270:03:29

And a sit down. No, you've got a sit down. All right for some.

0:03:290:03:32

Every question on Pointless has been asked to 100 people before the show.

0:03:320:03:35

Today's contestants are looking for a pointless answer,

0:03:350:03:38

an answer which none of our 100 people gave.

0:03:380:03:40

Find one of those and we will add £250 to the jackpot.

0:03:400:03:43

Now, as today's show is a celebrity special

0:03:430:03:45

and each of our celebrities is playing for a nominated charity,

0:03:450:03:48

we start off with a jackpot of £2,500.

0:03:480:03:51

APPLAUSE

0:03:510:03:53

Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:03:530:03:56

OK, all you have to remember is that the pair with the highest score

0:03:590:04:03

at the end of each round will be eliminated. The highest score.

0:04:030:04:06

So, do everything you can to make sure that is not you.

0:04:060:04:09

Best of luck, all four pairs. Our category for Round 1 today is...

0:04:090:04:12

Music and Film. What could be better?

0:04:150:04:17

Can you all decide in your pairs

0:04:170:04:18

who's going to go first, who's going to go second?

0:04:180:04:21

And whoever's going first, please, step up to the podium.

0:04:210:04:23

OK, and the question concerns...

0:04:270:04:29

HE REPEATS CATEGORY

0:04:330:04:36

Yes, we're going to show you a series of pairs now.

0:04:360:04:38

One of them is a film title. One of them's a song title.

0:04:380:04:40

And they've both got the same word shared with both of them.

0:04:400:04:43

And we've left that word blank,

0:04:430:04:44

so can you fill in the blanks you're about to see?

0:04:440:04:47

-Very, very best of luck.

-Thanks very much, indeed. Now.

0:04:470:04:50

Let's have a look at our first board of shared film and song titles

0:04:500:04:53

and here are the first seven.

0:04:530:04:54

I'm going to read those all one last time...

0:05:280:05:30

Ulrika. Welcome. Welcome back. Now, hang on. Last time, what happened?

0:05:450:05:49

-You were head-to-head.

-Yes.

-You were all-but finalists.

0:05:490:05:53

-So close, but we were against two very competitive sportsmen.

-Yes.

0:05:530:05:57

-That's right. Scott Quinnell and Austin Healey.

-Indeed.

0:05:570:06:00

-Through they went to the final. Oh.

-You can never beat a sportsman.

0:06:000:06:03

-No, but you were flying.

-I had so much fun. I did.

0:06:030:06:07

-I cried with laughter.

-Good stuff. Now, Ulrika.

-Yes.

0:06:070:06:11

-What do you fancy going for?

-Erm... I'm going to go for...

0:06:110:06:15

And I don't know if this is right. But I'm going to go with it, anyway.

0:06:150:06:20

The Third Man - Man On Fire?

0:06:200:06:23

The Third Man - Man On Fire.

0:06:230:06:26

Let's find out if that's right and,

0:06:260:06:27

if it is, let's see how many people said The Third Man - Man On Fire.

0:06:270:06:30

Is "man" the right missing word there?

0:06:300:06:32

It is!

0:06:340:06:36

That's a very good answer, Ulrika.

0:06:370:06:39

APPLAUSE

0:06:400:06:42

There's your reward. 39. Not a bad score at all to get the game going.

0:06:420:06:45

Well played, Ulrika. Good start.

0:06:450:06:47

The Third Man, Orson Welles film and Man On Fire, a Frankie Vaughan song.

0:06:470:06:51

Thank you, Richard.

0:06:520:06:54

-Now, then, Katie.

-What?

-A warm welcome.

-Oh, thank you.

0:06:540:06:57

It's lovely to have you here. This is like a school reunion, isn't it?

0:06:570:07:00

It's slightly like a school reunion, yes.

0:07:000:07:02

-With the unresolved sexual tension.

-Yes.

0:07:020:07:05

Which is going to stay unresolved.

0:07:050:07:06

Have you and Terry seen much of each other since the heady days...?

0:07:060:07:09

-We ran into each other.

-You came to my gig at the ICA.

0:07:090:07:13

He was doing a little confessional stand-up

0:07:130:07:15

about being traumatised by his Catholic childhood.

0:07:150:07:18

-The cruel nuns.

-The cruel nuns.

0:07:180:07:21

But it's made him the man he is today.

0:07:210:07:23

-And what a man he is.

-A mess!

0:07:230:07:26

Now, Katie, you are the queen of the blog at the moment, aren't you?

0:07:260:07:30

Yeah, well. I get around.

0:07:300:07:33

Speaking in an internet way, of course, virtually only.

0:07:330:07:37

-Now then, Katie.

-Yes.

-Which of these shared titles do you want to go for?

0:07:370:07:41

I'm going to go with 500 Days Of Summer Nights.

0:07:410:07:46

OK. Summer is the missing word on that bottom one.

0:07:460:07:49

Let's find out if that's right.

0:07:490:07:51

Is it "summer" and how many people said it, if it is?

0:07:510:07:53

It's absolutely right. 39 is our only score at the moment.

0:07:550:07:59

You've passed it.

0:07:590:08:01

APPLAUSE

0:08:010:08:04

This is very good, Katie. Very well done. 21.

0:08:040:08:07

Well played, Katie.

0:08:070:08:08

Joseph Gordon-Levitt film and, of course,

0:08:080:08:10

John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.

0:08:100:08:12

-Summer Nights.

-Indeed. Thank you very much.

0:08:120:08:15

People often say we have an unresolved sexual tension.

0:08:150:08:17

-Yeah, I've heard that.

-To which I always say...

0:08:170:08:19

-What do you mean, unresolved?!

-Yeah. LAUGHTER

0:08:190:08:22

-Come on, it's a tea-time show. Come on.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

0:08:220:08:26

-Looking good.

-We should do a single.

0:08:260:08:28

-We should do a single.

-It's just occurred to me now.

0:08:280:08:31

-I can't believe we haven't done that.

-I can't believe we haven't.

0:08:310:08:33

What should we do, do you think?

0:08:330:08:35

How about...

0:08:350:08:37

MUSIC: Everybody's Free (To Feel Good) by Rozalla

0:08:370:08:42

WHISTLE SOUNDS WEAKLY

0:08:420:08:45

APPLAUSE

0:08:500:08:53

I tell you what this show is revealing,

0:08:540:08:57

is that I only had one dance in the '90s.

0:08:570:08:59

-It was this.

-LAUGHTER

0:08:590:09:02

And I'm glad that I used to do a sitting-down dance,

0:09:020:09:04

-because it's come in handy.

-Yeah.

0:09:040:09:07

-Trevor.

-Hello.

-A warm welcome to you.

0:09:070:09:10

Last time you were here - Round 2.

0:09:100:09:12

-We've got to be hoping for much more than that, surely.

-I hope so.

0:09:120:09:16

Nicholas Parsons and Rick Wakeman were, you know, tough competition.

0:09:160:09:20

-They were good, weren't they?

-They were, yeah.

0:09:200:09:22

Oh, they were good. Now, when did you two meet?

0:09:220:09:24

When did you first start working together, Trevor?

0:09:240:09:26

-About 52 years ago.

-No, don't be ridiculous.

-About 32 years ago.

0:09:260:09:31

We're just this year in fact having our 30th reunion at university.

0:09:310:09:35

-Are you really?

-Yes.

0:09:350:09:36

-And you're still working together, still friends?

-Yeah, yeah.

0:09:360:09:39

-From a distance.

-Well, that's OK. That's fine.

0:09:390:09:42

-So, Trevor. There's this board.

-Yeah.

0:09:420:09:45

-And there are still five unanswered shared titles there.

-There is.

0:09:450:09:50

It's difficult, you know, because you don't know what's obvious.

0:09:500:09:53

There's a few that seem obvious, but... Um...

0:09:530:09:58

-I'm going to go for Modern Times.

-Modern Times.

0:09:580:10:02

Modern Times - Times Like These. Let's see if that's right

0:10:020:10:05

and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said "times."

0:10:050:10:08

It's absolutely right. 39 is our high score, 21 our low.

0:10:100:10:13

You've passed the high.

0:10:130:10:15

-You've passed the low. Look at that!

-APPLAUSE

0:10:150:10:18

A new low score, Trevor.

0:10:180:10:20

You selected wisely.

0:10:200:10:21

Yeah, well played, Trevor.

0:10:230:10:24

That's some Pointless experience kicking in there.

0:10:240:10:26

Modern Times, Charlie Chaplin of course,

0:10:260:10:28

and Times Like These by the Foo Fighters.

0:10:280:10:30

-Thank you very much. Now, then... OK, now, Fred.

-Hello.

0:10:300:10:33

-Welcome to Pointless.

-Thank you.

-It's great to have you here.

0:10:330:10:36

Now, how did Right Said Fred come about?

0:10:360:10:40

-Erm, well, Mum introduced us.

-Yeah?

-Yes. Over the breakfast table.

0:10:400:10:45

-Indeed.

-And then we started Right Said Fred in 1989.

0:10:450:10:49

But we'd been playing before that and, erm...

0:10:490:10:51

Richard played bass with David Bowie for a little bit.

0:10:510:10:54

We both worked with Mick Jagger.

0:10:540:10:56

-And I played guitar for Bob Dylan for a short time.

-Wow.

0:10:560:10:58

For some reason I thought you had some sort of background

0:10:580:11:01

-in...personal training.

-Yeah, we had a gym.

0:11:010:11:03

And when we were in New York, we ended up running a gym there

0:11:030:11:07

and then we did it when we came back to London.

0:11:070:11:09

that's a brilliant thing.

0:11:090:11:10

So, as well as being in the band, you are personal trainers, as well?

0:11:100:11:13

-Yes, we did.

-That's superb.

0:11:130:11:15

-Well now, Fred.

-Yes.

-You're the last person to have this board.

0:11:150:11:18

So, it is your joy and delight to take us through it

0:11:180:11:21

and fill in all the missing words.

0:11:210:11:23

Do you think you fancy that?

0:11:230:11:24

Yeah, erm...

0:11:240:11:25

I think I'll go for The Colour Purple.

0:11:250:11:28

-Purple Rain.

-Purple, for The Colour Purple and Purple Rain.

0:11:280:11:31

Let's see is that's right.

0:11:310:11:32

Let's see how many of our 100 people said "purple."

0:11:320:11:35

It's good.

0:11:370:11:38

APPLAUSE

0:11:400:11:43

Very hard to know what was going to score high and what was going to score low there.

0:11:450:11:48

But 67 is quite a punishing high score. But still, it's good.

0:11:480:11:51

-It's right.

-Yeah, it's a lot better than 100.

0:11:510:11:53

-Well played, all the teams there.

-Thank you.

-No, it is better.

0:11:530:11:55

We see much worse scores in Round 1, I assure you.

0:11:550:11:57

-Oh, that's reassuring.

-It is.

0:11:570:11:59

Steven Spielberg film, Prince single, of course.

0:11:590:12:02

Some Like It Hot - Hot Right Now.

0:12:020:12:04

DJ Fresh and Rita Ora. 78 points for that, even bigger score.

0:12:040:12:08

My Fair Lady Madonna.

0:12:080:12:09

-RICHARD:

-That's the one I was going to go for.

0:12:090:12:12

-Would have scored you 91.

-91!

-So you see? 67, not bad at all is the truth.

0:12:120:12:17

And Django Unchained Melody.

0:12:170:12:20

At the bottom there, would have scored 49.

0:12:200:12:21

So, Modern Times - Times Like These, Trevor. Best answer on the board.

0:12:210:12:25

Thanks very much. Let's have a look at those scores.

0:12:250:12:27

The best score of that pass was yours, Trevor. Very well done.

0:12:270:12:31

-We're winning!

-Yeah, in a way. Yes.

-In a way.

-Yeah.

-Be nice.

0:12:310:12:38

Then up to 21 where we find Katie and Terry. 39, Ulrika and Diane.

0:12:380:12:42

And then up to 67, where Fred and Richard are.

0:12:420:12:44

But, you know, there wasn't much left on the plate there, was there?

0:12:440:12:47

-There wasn't.

-You were always going to be the high scorers.

-Yes.

0:12:470:12:50

-And that's your fault.

-In many ways, yes. I'll take that one.

0:12:500:12:54

Richard, you get first choice of the next board, though.

0:12:540:12:57

So use it and find a really lovely low score.

0:12:570:12:59

It might be enough to keep you in the game. Let's hope so.

0:12:590:13:01

We're going to come back down the line.

0:13:010:13:03

Second players, please, step up to the podium.

0:13:030:13:06

OK, let's put seven more songs and films up on the board.

0:13:070:13:10

And here they are. We've got...

0:13:100:13:12

OK, I'll read those all again without the dates and here we are.

0:13:380:13:40

Now, then, Richard.

0:13:520:13:54

-I'm Too Sexy...?

-I know you are.

-LAUGHTER

0:13:540:13:57

Which is just... Oh, thank you. Thank you for the laugh(!)

0:13:570:14:02

We have friends in the audience.

0:14:020:14:05

How did you achieve something that's a really funny song

0:14:050:14:09

and actually a really cool song?

0:14:090:14:11

That is almost impossible.

0:14:110:14:13

It's like tossing a coin and it landing on the rim.

0:14:130:14:16

Well, the top line for the verse

0:14:160:14:18

was actually a bass line for another song.

0:14:180:14:20

So, we had the bass line running round on a computer.

0:14:200:14:23

And then we were in a basement in Acton, in this guy's studio,

0:14:230:14:26

and it was really hot. Brian, his name was. And, um...

0:14:260:14:29

The studio was in another room

0:14:290:14:31

and then there was his bedroom which was slightly cooler.

0:14:310:14:33

And I went into the bedroom.

0:14:330:14:35

And I know it sounds ridiculous.

0:14:350:14:36

I just took my shirt off and started dancing round in front of a mirror.

0:14:360:14:40

Singing, "I'm too sexy for my shirt."

0:14:400:14:43

And we all burst out laughing and thought it was very funny.

0:14:430:14:45

It was on film soundtracks and everything. It was brilliant.

0:14:450:14:48

Yeah, it made more money since it was a hit than it did at the time.

0:14:480:14:51

-Really? Well, congratulations.

-No, I love it. I'm very proud of it.

0:14:510:14:54

Yeah. And you're going to play it for us at the end of the show.

0:14:540:14:57

-Yes, we are.

-Which we're really looking forward to.

0:14:570:14:59

-That is going to be fantastic.

-APPLAUSE

0:14:590:15:03

Now, Richard, you have a mountain to climb here.

0:15:050:15:08

-50 points ahead of your nearest rivals.

-Excellent.

-Fabulous.

0:15:080:15:11

-But I think you can claw it all back here.

-Do you think?

-I think so.

0:15:110:15:13

Do you think?

0:15:130:15:15

OK. I'm going to go for the top one.

0:15:150:15:18

And I'm going to say window.

0:15:180:15:19

Rear Window - Window In The Skies. Let's see if that's right.

0:15:190:15:22

Let's see how many people said it.

0:15:220:15:24

No red line for you, as you're the high scorers,

0:15:240:15:26

but we've got to hope this goes a long way down the column.

0:15:260:15:28

APPLAUSE

0:15:360:15:39

97 is your total, Richard.

0:15:390:15:42

Well played, Richard. Good answer. Alfred Hitchcock film, of course.

0:15:420:15:45

-Do you know who the single Window In The Skies is by?

-Cascada?

0:15:450:15:49

-It's by U2. It was a number four hit by U2.

-Number four hit?

0:15:490:15:54

-Whoosh, we've all forgotten it.

-It was their 39th top 40 hit.

0:15:540:15:57

Their only hit with the word "window" in it.

0:15:570:15:59

-Really?

-LAUGHTER

0:16:000:16:03

-I know.

-Erm. Thanks very much indeed. Now then, Simon.

0:16:030:16:06

-Hello.

-Simon. Great to have you here.

0:16:060:16:09

What are you up to at the moment, Simon?

0:16:090:16:11

Erm, at the moment, writing for Three Little Dinosaurs on CBeebies.

0:16:110:16:16

ALL: Aw!

0:16:160:16:18

Actually, we've just finished that.

0:16:180:16:20

Just finished writing for a thing called Dinopaws,

0:16:200:16:22

which is about Gwen, Bob and Tony, three little dinosaurs.

0:16:220:16:25

Although, I have been in a sonic movie.

0:16:250:16:27

It was...

0:16:270:16:28

It's true, I was in a kind of online thing called

0:16:280:16:31

The Minister Of Chance, which has a great cast.

0:16:310:16:33

I was acting with Jenny Agutter in it, which was very, you know,

0:16:330:16:36

I was in awe. We had Jenny Agutter, Paul McGann, Sylvester McCoy...

0:16:360:16:41

In fact, I met your mate.

0:16:410:16:42

Well, I didn't meet him, but I was at BritSciFi with Ben Miller.

0:16:420:16:46

-Oh, he's good, isn't he? He really is good. ULRIKA:

-He's so much nicer!

0:16:460:16:52

Well... Let's just say he's really nice.

0:16:520:16:55

-He's really nice.

-A very, very funny, very funny, very handsome man.

0:16:550:16:58

-We miss him.

-You know, every double act's got one.

0:16:580:17:02

LAUGHTER

0:17:020:17:04

Listen, that's not saying anything about you, at all.

0:17:040:17:07

-Yeah, yeah. No, no, no.

-You're one of the great straight men.

0:17:070:17:10

LAUGHTER

0:17:100:17:12

Never a truer word said. Thanks very much, indeed.

0:17:140:17:18

Anyway, Simon, you're on 16.

0:17:180:17:20

The high scorers are Richard and Fred on 97. 80 or less...

0:17:200:17:23

..sees you into the next round.

0:17:240:17:27

OK, dokes. Well, I think I will go for the bottom one

0:17:270:17:32

and I will go for Any Given Sunday and Sunday Girl.

0:17:320:17:35

Any Given Sunday - Sunday Girl. Let's see if that's right.

0:17:350:17:38

Here's your red line. Nice and high.

0:17:380:17:40

If you get below that, you are through to the next round for sure.

0:17:400:17:43

Let's see how many people said "Sunday."

0:17:430:17:45

It's right.

0:17:480:17:49

And you are in Round 2. Very well done.

0:17:490:17:51

APPLAUSE

0:17:540:17:56

31 is your total.

0:17:560:17:57

Well played, Simon. Very nice score.

0:18:000:18:02

Oliver Stone film and Blondie's second UK number one.

0:18:020:18:05

Thanks very much, Rich. Terry. Terry.

0:18:050:18:10

So, we were hearing about your stand-up show. Your one-man show.

0:18:100:18:14

What's that?

0:18:140:18:15

It's called Naked Confessions Of A Recovering Catholic.

0:18:150:18:17

I've actually had good reviews for it.

0:18:170:18:19

-They're all laughing at my pain.

-And are you still doing that?

-Oh, yeah.

0:18:190:18:24

I've done about 25 gigs now, but it's been a bit of a slow burner.

0:18:240:18:28

So, you know, I'll carry on doing it until everyone's seen it

0:18:280:18:31

and paid their tenners.

0:18:310:18:33

But it's very popular, by the way.

0:18:330:18:35

OK, so, Terry.

0:18:350:18:37

Terry. Listen, you are on 21.

0:18:370:18:39

-The high scorers still Richard and Fred on 97.

-Yeah, all right.

0:18:390:18:42

-75 or less.

-Calm down!

0:18:420:18:44

75 or less gets you through to the next round.

0:18:440:18:48

You can do this in your sleep.

0:18:480:18:49

Yeah, well, actually this film was a first date for me with a girl.

0:18:500:18:55

And not a good idea, by the way,

0:18:550:18:57

because of one particular scene in it.

0:18:570:18:58

So, it's Midnight Express and Express Yourself.

0:18:580:19:01

Express, says Terry.

0:19:010:19:03

Let's see if that's right and, if it is,

0:19:030:19:05

let's see how many people said "express." There's your red line.

0:19:050:19:08

Get below that, you're in Round 2.

0:19:080:19:09

It's right.

0:19:120:19:14

You are in Round 2.

0:19:140:19:15

-Very good. Very good.

-APPLAUSE

0:19:190:19:22

-17 takes your total up to 38.

-Well played, Terry. Good answer there.

0:19:240:19:28

Yes, it's an Alan Parker film and a Madonna single.

0:19:280:19:31

-Thanks very much indeed. Now, Diane.

-Hello.

-Diane, welcome to the show.

0:19:310:19:35

Jet on Gladiators. Now, how did that come about?

0:19:350:19:40

It was a bit bizarre, to be honest.

0:19:400:19:42

I think I'd been teaching a lot of fitness.

0:19:420:19:44

I had done a lot of TV and a bit of theatre prior

0:19:440:19:48

and they knew me as a fairly fit girl,

0:19:480:19:51

in the sense that I could run a bit and climb a bit

0:19:510:19:53

and do a few gymnastics and a bit of dancing.

0:19:530:19:55

They were wanting to cast girls that weren't really body builders,

0:19:550:19:58

so they looked at the world of dance and theatre a bit.

0:19:580:20:02

And they found me.

0:20:020:20:04

And I thought, "There's no way I'll be able to do this!"

0:20:040:20:06

I'd seen the American show and they were really,

0:20:060:20:09

kind of, buff, as they say.

0:20:090:20:10

-It was terrifying.

-I think butch is...

-Possibly, yes. You said it.

0:20:100:20:14

And then, of course, I did it and the rest is history.

0:20:140:20:16

I did about four, four and a half years, before an accident,

0:20:160:20:19

and got the chance to work with Ulrika and the rest of the team,

0:20:190:20:22

who were fantastic, but the contenders were even better.

0:20:220:20:25

Brilliant. And here you are today on 39.

0:20:250:20:27

-The high scorers still Richard and Fred on 97.

-All right!

0:20:270:20:30

You enjoy that, don't you?

0:20:300:20:31

I'm, literally... I'm just saying what I see.

0:20:310:20:34

Yeah, you have to score 57 or less.

0:20:350:20:37

57 or less and you are through to the next round.

0:20:370:20:39

Do you feel confident enough to talk us through that board?

0:20:390:20:42

Million Dollar Baby - Baby Love.

0:20:420:20:44

Er...Office Space - Space Oddity.

0:20:460:20:48

Apocalypse Now - Now You're Gone and Dirty Dancing - Dancing Queen.

0:20:490:20:53

I'd like to go for...space, if that's right.

0:20:540:20:59

OK, space. Office and Oddity sharing Space. There is your red line.

0:20:590:21:04

If you get below that, you're through to Round 2.

0:21:040:21:06

Let's see if space is right

0:21:060:21:07

and, if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:21:070:21:09

It is right.

0:21:110:21:12

You're in Round 2.

0:21:130:21:15

-Very well done indeed.

-APPLAUSE

0:21:160:21:19

Close in the end. 82, your total.

0:21:190:21:21

Very well played, Diane.

0:21:210:21:22

-A Mike Judge film and the first of David Bowie's 57 top 40 hits.

-57?

0:21:220:21:26

Space Oddity. Amazing, isn't it? And that's just up to time of recording.

0:21:260:21:30

He's not done yet, is he?

0:21:300:21:31

-No.

-Now, you took us through the board very nicely, as well.

0:21:310:21:33

You'd have got more points for Million Dollar Baby - Baby Love.

0:21:330:21:36

Would have seen you knocked out. It would have scored you 61 points.

0:21:360:21:39

Apocalypse Now - Now You're Gone, you're right as well.

0:21:390:21:42

Also would have seen you knocked out with 69 points.

0:21:420:21:45

And Dirty Dancing - Dancing Queen.

0:21:450:21:46

Also would have seen you knocked out. 82.

0:21:460:21:48

You went for the one answer that would have seen you through.

0:21:480:21:51

-Well played.

-Well, thanks very much, Richard.

0:21:510:21:53

So, at the end of our first round, I'm so sorry.

0:21:530:21:55

The pair who will be heading home with their high score of 97,

0:21:550:21:58

it's Richard and Fred. Nothing wrong with your answers.

0:21:580:22:01

And who would have known the The Colour Purple

0:22:010:22:03

-and Purple Rain would have been so high?

-Who would have guessed?

0:22:030:22:06

It's been wonderful having you on the show, and you're not going yet.

0:22:060:22:09

You're going to play us out at the end of the show. What a treat.

0:22:090:22:11

Looking forward to that.

0:22:110:22:13

But in the meantime, thank you so much for playing. Richard and Fred.

0:22:130:22:16

APPLAUSE

0:22:160:22:18

But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round 2.

0:22:180:22:21

So, three pairs remain.

0:22:240:22:26

At the end of this round, we'll have to say goodbye to another pair

0:22:260:22:29

in time for our head-to-head round.

0:22:290:22:30

Congratulations to each of our pairs.

0:22:300:22:32

Our category for Round 2 today is...

0:22:320:22:34

Oh, no. Shame.

0:22:350:22:38

Tennis. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:22:380:22:41

who's going to go second?

0:22:410:22:43

And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:22:430:22:45

OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:22:490:22:51

We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:22:510:22:56

..as they could.

0:22:580:23:00

Current tennis players who've won a Grand Slam tournament. Richard.

0:23:000:23:03

We're looking for any tennis player

0:23:030:23:05

who's currently in the world's top 100

0:23:050:23:06

who's ever won a Grand Slam singles title, please.

0:23:060:23:09

So, anyone in the top 100, as of January 2014

0:23:090:23:11

who's ever won Wimbledon, French Open, Australian Open or the US Open singles title, please.

0:23:110:23:16

-Very best of luck.

-Thanks very much, indeed.

0:23:160:23:19

So, Diane, we come to you first. And what are you going to go for?

0:23:190:23:22

Um, it's going to have to be a bit of a guess.

0:23:230:23:25

My knowledge is very low on tennis, so I'll go for Peter Sampras.

0:23:250:23:29

Peter Sampras, says Diane.

0:23:290:23:31

Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Pete Sampras.

0:23:310:23:35

Oh, I'm afraid that's incorrect, Diane.

0:23:380:23:40

-Scores you the maximum of 100 points. I'm sorry.

-Sorry, Diane.

0:23:400:23:44

But you've got Ulrika's tennis knowledge

0:23:440:23:46

to save you in the second pass. THEY LAUGH

0:23:460:23:48

No, he's been retired for a long time. It's Pete Sampras,

0:23:480:23:51

but Peter Sampras is a rather nice way of referring to him.

0:23:510:23:53

If his mother is watching now, she will be delighted.

0:23:530:23:56

Thanks very much. Now, Katie.

0:23:560:23:58

-What are you thinking?

-OK.

0:24:000:24:02

So, I'm just going to say this very, um, fun name that I remember.

0:24:020:24:09

Venus Williams.

0:24:090:24:11

Venus Williams, says Katie. Venus Williams.

0:24:110:24:14

Let's see if that's right and let's see how many people said it.

0:24:140:24:16

It's right.

0:24:180:24:20

-Very well done, Katie.

-Oh, my God, I'm just...

-Still going down.

0:24:200:24:24

APPLAUSE DROWNS SPEECH

0:24:240:24:26

A good answer.

0:24:260:24:28

Well played, Katie. Terrific answer.

0:24:290:24:31

Yes, world number 38, as of January 2014.

0:24:310:24:34

-Won all sorts of Grand Slam titles.

-Thank you very much, Richard.

0:24:340:24:37

Trevor.

0:24:370:24:39

There's a name in my mind, but I know he's not pointless.

0:24:390:24:42

I just have...Roger Federer.

0:24:420:24:44

Roger Federer, says Trevor. Roger Federer.

0:24:440:24:47

Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:24:470:24:48

It's right.

0:24:510:24:52

-APPLAUSE

-57 for Roger Federer.

0:24:540:24:57

Still ranked in the top ten, Roger Federer

0:25:000:25:02

and 17 Grand Slam titles to date.

0:25:020:25:05

I bet he's got one more in him. That's my opinion.

0:25:050:25:07

-That's my betting opinion.

-It'd be nice.

0:25:070:25:09

-18's a nicer number to stop on.

-It is, isn't it?

0:25:090:25:11

-When this goes out, he might have already won one.

-Oh, he might?

0:25:110:25:14

That's good. We'll look so old and faded.

0:25:140:25:17

-Do you think?

-Yeah. Banging on about 17. Slightly embarrassing.

0:25:170:25:21

-It'll look ridiculous, won't it?

-Yeah.

0:25:210:25:23

We'll have to do something to make us look cooler and younger.

0:25:230:25:25

-That's a good idea.

-What could we do? Oh, hold on.

0:25:250:25:27

MUSIC: Firestarter by The Prodigy

0:25:270:25:31

APPLAUSE

0:25:390:25:42

I'm almost certain we didn't have those in the '90s.

0:25:440:25:47

If I'd had one of these in the '90s,

0:25:470:25:49

I could have started a small church or something.

0:25:490:25:51

-LAUGHTER

-A cult. I'd have been a leader of men.

0:25:510:25:54

We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.

0:25:540:25:57

28, Katie. You see, there you are, the lowest score of the pass.

0:25:570:26:00

-You see? You see?

-It's just dumb luck.

0:26:000:26:02

-I'm telling you.

-Listen, whatever it is, you are the low scorers on 28.

0:26:020:26:05

Then we go up to 57, where we find Trevor and Simon.

0:26:050:26:07

Up to 100, Diane and Ulrika. Ulrika, yes, you've got a job to do here.

0:26:070:26:12

That's all I'm saying. We're going to come back down the line.

0:26:120:26:15

Second players, please, step up to the podium.

0:26:150:26:17

OK, so, Simon,

0:26:200:26:21

we're looking for any male or female tennis player,

0:26:210:26:24

currently ranked in the top 100,

0:26:240:26:25

who has won at least one Grand Slam title.

0:26:250:26:28

Thank you, Katie. You've given me a hint.

0:26:290:26:34

-So I'm going to go for Serena Williams.

-Serena Williams. OK.

0:26:340:26:37

Well, listen, there you are on 57. High scorers on 100.

0:26:370:26:40

You have to score 42 or less. There's your red line.

0:26:400:26:43

If you can get below that red line with Serena Williams,

0:26:430:26:45

you're in Round 2.

0:26:450:26:46

It's right.

0:26:490:26:50

You've done it. Trevor and Simon will be in the head-to-head.

0:26:530:26:56

You've gone one better. That takes your total up to 90.

0:26:570:27:01

Well played, Simon. Ranked number one, actually, in January 2014.

0:27:010:27:03

Oldest woman ever to be world rank number one.

0:27:030:27:06

-Thanks very much. Now, Terry.

-Oh.

-Listen, good news.

0:27:060:27:10

28, lovely low score from Katie. What are you going to go for?

0:27:100:27:14

Anna Kournikova.

0:27:140:27:16

Anna Kournikova, says Terry. Anna Kournikova.

0:27:160:27:19

There's your red line.

0:27:190:27:20

If you get below that with Anna Kournikova, you are through to the next round.

0:27:200:27:24

Let's see if it's right, then let's see how many people said Anna Kournikova.

0:27:240:27:27

Sorry, Terry. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.

0:27:300:27:32

Scores you 100 points. Takes your total up to 128.

0:27:320:27:36

Sorry, Terry. Not in the world's top 100 as of January 2014, I'm afraid.

0:27:360:27:41

And also hasn't won a Grand Slam.

0:27:410:27:42

Apart from that - impeccable. LAUGHTER

0:27:420:27:46

And you got the first name.

0:27:460:27:47

The only other one I knew was too obvious

0:27:470:27:49

and wouldn't have scored less than 71.

0:27:490:27:51

Well, that still would have been 29 better than what you did score.

0:27:510:27:54

LAUGHTER

0:27:540:27:56

Thanks very much indeed. OK, now, Ulrika.

0:27:560:27:59

-Hi.

-Listen, you've got a target. You've got a target to aim for.

0:27:590:28:02

You're going to get a red line and everything.

0:28:020:28:04

-Yes.

-Terry and Katie are on 128, so if you can score 27 or less...

0:28:040:28:10

-I've got a name.

-Yes.

0:28:110:28:14

But I... I can't remember.

0:28:140:28:17

Honestly, it's the lights. They're dazzling me.

0:28:170:28:19

So I'm going to go for...

0:28:190:28:22

-Richard, don't look bored yet.

-Hmm? LAUGHTER

0:28:220:28:26

-So rude.

-I was focusing. I was concentrating.

-I'm going to go for...

0:28:260:28:29

Sharapova.

0:28:300:28:33

And her first name is...

0:28:330:28:34

Er... Ah...

0:28:370:28:40

She's not that old.

0:28:400:28:41

Anna, El...

0:28:410:28:44

DIANE LAUGHS

0:28:440:28:46

Anne, Elizabeth, Jane? Anna.

0:28:460:28:49

-Anna?

-No, it's not. Ka? I have to go through the alphabet.

0:28:500:28:54

That's how I remember people's names.

0:28:540:28:55

Ulrika, is it all right if I look bored now?

0:28:550:28:58

LAUGHTER

0:28:580:29:00

-Maria Sharapova! Maria! Yes!

-Maria.

-I got it. Maria.

0:29:100:29:16

OK, Maria Sharapova. There's your red line.

0:29:160:29:18

But it's not going to be less than that.

0:29:180:29:20

If you get below that red line with Maria Sharapova,

0:29:200:29:22

you are in the head-to-head.

0:29:220:29:24

Let's see how many of our 100 people said Maria Sharapova.

0:29:240:29:28

It's right.

0:29:310:29:32

You've done it! Very well done indeed.

0:29:360:29:38

APPLAUSE

0:29:380:29:40

Very good. Maria Sharapova takes your total up to 114

0:29:400:29:43

-and takes you into the head-to-head.

-How about that?

0:29:430:29:46

World number three. That took as long as an entire series

0:29:460:29:49

of How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria. LAUGHTER

0:29:490:29:52

OK, let's take a look. There's two pointless answers on the board.

0:29:520:29:55

Let's take a look at both of them. You could have had...

0:29:550:29:57

Very good answers if you got them.

0:29:570:29:59

Francesca Schiavone and Svetlana Kuznetsova.

0:29:590:30:01

Some of the low scorers.

0:30:010:30:03

You'd have got one point for Ana Ivanovic, Sam Stosur

0:30:030:30:05

and Petra Kvitova.

0:30:050:30:07

Very well done if you said any of those at home.

0:30:070:30:09

Thanks very much, indeed, Richard.

0:30:090:30:10

So, at the end of our second round,

0:30:100:30:12

I'm afraid it's Terry and Katie,

0:30:120:30:14

with a high score of 128, who are heading away.

0:30:140:30:16

Oh, it's the glass wall at the end of the second round, Terry.

0:30:160:30:19

You're not breaking through it.

0:30:190:30:21

Hitting the net in football's great, but in tennis, no good.

0:30:210:30:25

LAUGHTER

0:30:270:30:29

This is where, I'm afraid, we have to say goodbye.

0:30:290:30:31

It's been lovely having you on the show.

0:30:310:30:33

-Terry and Katie, thank you so much for playing. Terry and Katie.

-APPLAUSE

0:30:330:30:36

But for Trevor and Simon, Ulrika and Diane,

0:30:370:30:39

it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:30:390:30:41

Congratulations, Trevor and Simon, Ulrika and Diane,

0:30:450:30:47

you're now one step closer to the final and a chance to play

0:30:470:30:50

for our jackpot, which currently stands at £2,500.

0:30:500:30:53

APPLAUSE

0:30:530:30:55

So, this is the point where we decide who gets to play

0:30:570:30:59

for that money for their chosen charities.

0:30:590:31:01

To do that, you're going to go head-to-head.

0:31:010:31:03

The big difference is,

0:31:030:31:04

you're now allowed to confer before you give your answers.

0:31:040:31:06

And the first pair to win two questions

0:31:060:31:09

will be playing for that jackpot.

0:31:090:31:10

Oh, and this is exciting, this is exciting! Listen.

0:31:100:31:13

Singing Corner, ready! Gladiators, ready!

0:31:130:31:18

Let's play the head-to-head.

0:31:180:31:20

OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...

0:31:250:31:29

-LAUGHTER

-Celebrity beards.

-There's one.

0:31:310:31:34

This isn't anything to do with sham marriages, is it?

0:31:340:31:36

It's not, I'm afraid.

0:31:360:31:37

We're going to show you five pictures now of celebrities sporting beards.

0:31:370:31:40

You just need to tell us who they are, please. Very best of luck.

0:31:400:31:43

OK, let's reveal our five celebrity beards. And here they come.

0:31:430:31:46

We have got...

0:31:460:31:47

There we are. Five celebrities sporting beards.

0:32:070:32:10

Now, Trevor and Simon, you've played best throughout the show so far,

0:32:100:32:13

so you will go first.

0:32:130:32:14

(I think we should go for B or E.)

0:32:140:32:16

-(Yeah, I think so.)

-Well, which do you think?

0:32:180:32:21

-(I think E.

-E?

-I'm fairly happy it's him.)

0:32:210:32:24

We're going to go for E and we think that's Antonio Banderas.

0:32:250:32:29

Antonio Banderas, say Trevor and Simon, for E.

0:32:290:32:32

Now then, Ulrika and Diane, the board is all yours.

0:32:320:32:36

OK! I'm not going to touch anything. Shall we talk you through it?

0:32:360:32:39

-Well, we don't know them all.

-A is Brad Pitt.

0:32:390:32:43

B, we think, is Will Young.

0:32:430:32:45

-C, we think, is...

-Daniel Radcliffe.

0:32:470:32:50

-D, we think is...

-SHE MUMBLES

0:32:500:32:55

-And E...

-Is Banderas.

-Obviously, Antonio Banderas.

0:32:550:32:59

-Are we going to go for B?

-Yes.

-We're going to go for B, Will Young.

0:32:590:33:03

B, Will Young, say Ulrika and Diane.

0:33:030:33:05

So, we have Antonio Banderas and we have Will Young.

0:33:050:33:08

Now, Trevor and Simon said Antonio Banderas, for E.

0:33:080:33:11

Let's see if that's right and let's see how many people said it.

0:33:110:33:13

It is right.

0:33:160:33:17

APPLAUSE

0:33:220:33:24

-Very good.

-Now, Ulrika and Diane have said that B is Will Young.

0:33:240:33:31

Let's see if that's right and,

0:33:310:33:33

if it is, let's see how many people said Will Young.

0:33:330:33:35

-It is Will Young.

-It is Will Young.

0:33:370:33:39

Is this going to beat 30, though?

0:33:390:33:41

APPLAUSE

0:33:420:33:44

Very well done, Trevor and Simon.

0:33:460:33:48

After one question, you are up 1-0.

0:33:480:33:51

Very well played, guys. Two good answers there.

0:33:510:33:54

You're right about Brad Pitt.

0:33:540:33:55

Would have scored you a lot of points, though.

0:33:550:33:57

Would have scored you 68.

0:33:570:33:59

Daniel Radcliffe.

0:33:590:34:00

The wonderful Daniel Radcliffe would have scored you 55.

0:34:000:34:03

-Matthew Fox! Matthew Fox!

-And it is. From Lost, the actor Matthew Fox.

0:34:030:34:08

Absolutely. And it's the best answer there. 9 points.

0:34:080:34:10

-Should have thought of that a few moments ago.

-The alphabet!

0:34:100:34:13

OK, well, thanks very much. Here comes your second question.

0:34:130:34:16

Ulrika and Diane, you get to answer this one first,

0:34:160:34:18

but you have to win it to stay in the game, so very best of luck.

0:34:180:34:21

It concerns...

0:34:210:34:22

-What?

-Fire, Richard.

0:34:240:34:25

Just going to give you five clues now to answers

0:34:250:34:28

all of which have the word "fire" somewhere in them.

0:34:280:34:30

Different things, but all with "fire" somewhere in their titles.

0:34:300:34:33

Can you give us the most obscure answer?

0:34:330:34:35

OK, thanks, Richard. Let's reveal our five clues. And here they come.

0:34:350:34:38

We've got...

0:34:380:34:40

I'll read those all one last time.

0:34:580:35:00

Ulrika and Diane, you will go first.

0:35:160:35:19

-(Pontypandy is Fireman Sam.)

-Oh! OK.

0:35:190:35:23

Don't know.

0:35:230:35:24

ULRIKA WHISPERS

0:35:240:35:27

Yes.

0:35:270:35:28

-And what's the bottom one?

-(Do you know the second one? I don't know.

0:35:280:35:31

-(I've no idea.)

-OK.

-We might be going for the first one.

0:35:310:35:37

Which is Fireman Sam.

0:35:370:35:40

Fireman Sam say Ulrika and Diane. Fireman Sam.

0:35:400:35:43

Trevor and Simon, talk us through that board, if you can.

0:35:430:35:46

Um, OK. Um, the Tom Wolfe novel is Bonfire Of The Vanities.

0:35:460:35:52

The title of the 1989 Jerry Lee Lewis biopic is Great Balls Of Fire.

0:35:520:35:57

And the disaster is the Great Fire of London.

0:35:570:36:01

And, erm, the indie band whose album is Reflector...is Arcade Fire,

0:36:010:36:06

-we think.

-We'll go with Tom Wolfe's novel, The Bonfire Of The Vanities.

0:36:060:36:10

Bonfire Of The Vanities. So, we have Fireman Sam.

0:36:100:36:12

We have Bonfire Of The Vanities.

0:36:120:36:14

Now then, Ulrika and Diane went with Fireman Sam.

0:36:140:36:16

Let's see if that's right and let's see how many people said it.

0:36:160:36:19

It's right.

0:36:210:36:22

-Fireman Sam, 36.

-APPLAUSE

0:36:260:36:29

We should have definitely gone for B.

0:36:290:36:31

Trevor and Simon have named the Tom Wolfe New York-set novel

0:36:310:36:35

as The Bonfire Of The Vanities. Let's see if that's right.

0:36:350:36:37

Let's see how many people said that.

0:36:370:36:39

It is right.

0:36:410:36:43

I have a feeling this might beat Pontypandy.

0:36:440:36:46

And it does, look at that.

0:36:460:36:47

-Down it goes to ten. Look at that.

-APPLAUSE

0:36:470:36:51

Very, very well done, Trevor and Simon.

0:36:510:36:53

After two questions, you are straight through to the final, 2-0.

0:36:530:36:56

Well played, gents. You took us through the board very nicely there.

0:36:560:36:59

The Jerry Lee Lewis film was Great Balls Of Fire. You're quite right.

0:36:590:37:02

Would have scored you 24 points.

0:37:020:37:04

The disaster was the biggest scorer there. Great Fire of London.

0:37:040:37:07

Would have scored you 77.

0:37:070:37:08

And the indie band was Arcade Fire, as you said.

0:37:080:37:10

That would have scored 17.

0:37:100:37:11

Bonfire Of The Vanities couldn't have beaten it. Best answer.

0:37:110:37:14

Thank you, Richard.

0:37:140:37:15

So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:37:150:37:18

I'm afraid, Ulrika... It's head-to-head again.

0:37:180:37:21

It was head-to-head last time.

0:37:210:37:22

It was head-to-head this time.

0:37:220:37:23

You both must come back. But thank you so much for playing.

0:37:230:37:26

-Ulrika and Diane, wonderful performance.

-APPLAUSE

0:37:260:37:30

But for Trevor and Simon, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:37:300:37:33

Congratulations, Trevor and Simon.

0:37:380:37:39

You fought off all the competition

0:37:390:37:41

and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:37:410:37:44

You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot

0:37:500:37:52

for your chosen charities.

0:37:520:37:53

At the moment, the jackpot stands at £2,500.

0:37:530:37:57

APPLAUSE

0:37:570:37:59

As always, you get to choose your category for this last round.

0:38:010:38:04

You have four options to choose from. Let's see what they are.

0:38:040:38:07

We've got...

0:38:070:38:08

-International Organisations?

-Should we? Should we?

0:38:180:38:21

It's a bit specific, isn't it?

0:38:210:38:22

It's going to be a Thunderbirds thing or something. I don't know.

0:38:220:38:26

Modern Female Novelists?

0:38:260:38:27

I, er... Hmm.

0:38:270:38:30

-Erm...

-Let's do British Comedy and hope for the best.

-British Comedy.

0:38:300:38:33

-Go on, British Comedy.

-OK, British Comedy it is.

0:38:330:38:35

OK, three very different options here, including a film one,

0:38:350:38:38

so hopefully something here suits.

0:38:380:38:39

We are looking for the title of any of the episodes

0:38:390:38:43

of the Mr Bean series that ran from 1990 to 1995.

0:38:430:38:46

That's the live-action one, not the animated one.

0:38:460:38:48

We are looking for any cast member from the 2013 comedy The World's End.

0:38:480:38:52

So, anybody according to IMDB credited with acting in that film.

0:38:520:38:56

Terrific film.

0:38:560:38:57

Or we are looking for anybody nominated for an individual

0:38:570:39:00

British Comedy Award in 2013.

0:39:000:39:02

So, any nominee or winner of an individual British Comedy Award.

0:39:020:39:05

In terms of double acts, we'll take either answer as acceptable.

0:39:050:39:08

So, any title of a Mr Bean episode,

0:39:080:39:10

any cast member of The World's End or anyone who was nominated

0:39:100:39:13

for an individual category in the 2013 British Comedy Awards.

0:39:130:39:16

Very, very best of luck.

0:39:160:39:19

Thanks very much.

0:39:190:39:20

As always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers

0:39:200:39:23

and all you need to win that jackpot for your charities

0:39:230:39:25

is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:39:250:39:28

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

0:39:280:39:29

OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.

0:39:290:39:32

Your time starts now.

0:39:320:39:34

-Mr Bean...

-I'd leave that, wouldn't you?

0:39:350:39:38

British Comedy Award nominees and winners.

0:39:380:39:40

I'm trying to think about double acts that...

0:39:400:39:43

The thing on Channel 4, they were nominated,

0:39:430:39:45

and I can't think of their names.

0:39:450:39:47

-Female double act?

-No, a male double act. Erm...

0:39:470:39:50

Cast of the film World's End.

0:39:500:39:52

Paddy Considine, erm, and what's the name of...

0:39:520:39:55

the guy who was in...

0:39:550:39:58

I always think of him going, "Fancy a nice, sweet cup of tea?"

0:39:580:40:01

Do you know that guy? From...Gangster No. 1.

0:40:010:40:04

"Would you like a nice, sweet cup of tea?"

0:40:040:40:07

-That's no good, is it? Paddy Considine.

-Oh, I know, yes.

0:40:070:40:09

Do you know the one I mean? What's his name?

0:40:090:40:11

-The tea boy. No, I know it.

-Erm...

0:40:110:40:14

Nick Frost, but that's no good. Erm...

0:40:150:40:18

Who plays... Is Michael...? Is Brian Cox possibly in it?

0:40:200:40:24

It's someone like that.

0:40:240:40:27

This is awful. Um.

0:40:270:40:28

Frost.

0:40:300:40:32

-Not Nick Frost. What's...

-That is your time up.

0:40:320:40:35

I now need your three answers.

0:40:350:40:39

-OK, so we'll go Paddy Considine.

-Paddy Considine.

0:40:400:40:44

Yeah, for The World's End.

0:40:440:40:46

Um, Mark...

0:40:460:40:47

-Got a Mr Bean thing...

-Do you want to try a Mr Bean one?

0:40:470:40:49

No, I just think we'd think of it. There were so many episodes.

0:40:490:40:52

But what were the titles, though?

0:40:520:40:53

Um...comedy award winners.

0:40:550:40:57

We'll have to go...

0:40:580:40:59

Let's say, I think, Brian Cox, possibly, was in The World's End.

0:41:010:41:04

-Brian Cox. Wonderful.

-Not 100% sure of that. It's...Josh Widdicombe.

0:41:040:41:08

-Josh Widdicombe.

-Yeah? Yeah?

-Go on, then. Yeah, yeah.

-There we are then.

0:41:080:41:11

Three answers. Josh Widdicombe, a nominee from the Comedy Awards

0:41:110:41:14

-and the other two are from World's End.

-Yes.

0:41:140:41:17

Of those three, best shot at a pointless answer?

0:41:170:41:19

-Um...Josh Widdicombe.

-Josh Widdicombe, we'll put last.

0:41:210:41:25

OK, least likely to be pointless?

0:41:250:41:27

Well, I don't know if Brian Cox is right. So, shall we put him first?

0:41:270:41:30

-Yeah.

-We'll put Brian Cox first.

-Do that.

0:41:300:41:32

Let's put those on the board, in that order.

0:41:320:41:34

And here they come. We have got...

0:41:340:41:35

Three fantastic personalities up there.

0:41:400:41:43

Let's hope at least one of them is right and pointless.

0:41:430:41:45

If it is, it'll win you 2,500 quid for your charities.

0:41:450:41:48

What are your charities? Trevor?

0:41:480:41:50

Well, mine's Surf Life Saving GB.

0:41:500:41:52

I don't surf myself, although I am going to have a lesson this summer.

0:41:520:41:56

But my daughter, who's with me tonight,

0:41:560:41:59

she had an accident just before Christmas.

0:41:590:42:01

She fell into the Margate Harbour.

0:42:010:42:04

And there was a guy on the spot

0:42:040:42:06

who just happened to be the local surf hero, life saver

0:42:060:42:10

and water safety expert

0:42:100:42:12

and he was there on the spot and, I think, saved her life, pretty much.

0:42:120:42:16

So, I thought his charity... His name is Dave Melmoth

0:42:160:42:20

and I think he deserved a mention and a thank you,

0:42:200:42:22

so if we can get some money for that charity, that would be fantastic.

0:42:220:42:25

Excellent. Simon?

0:42:250:42:27

I'd like to raise some money for the Lymphoedema Support Network,

0:42:270:42:30

which is mainly because of my mum.

0:42:300:42:33

My mum had breast cancer and had the lymph nodes removed

0:42:330:42:36

and for anyone who's got problems with the lymphatic system,

0:42:360:42:39

they need help, being taught and given support.

0:42:390:42:44

The Lymphoedema Network Support,

0:42:440:42:46

which is just funded by its members and donations,

0:42:460:42:49

they've been fantastic with my mum.

0:42:490:42:51

So I'd like to be able to give something back for that.

0:42:510:42:53

-Very good. Two fabulous charities.

-APPLAUSE

0:42:530:42:56

Two great charities,

0:43:000:43:01

two excellent reasons to be raising money for them.

0:43:010:43:04

Let's hope one of these answers will raise some money.

0:43:040:43:07

Your first answer was Brian Cox.

0:43:070:43:09

Slightly off the top of your heads,

0:43:090:43:11

but he's a likely kind of character to be in World's End, surely.

0:43:110:43:16

Let's find out if it's right.

0:43:160:43:18

If it is and it's pointless, it'll win you £2,500 for those charities.

0:43:180:43:21

Let's see how many people said Brian Cox, if it's right.

0:43:210:43:24

Oh, no.

0:43:290:43:30

Sadly, Brian Cox, not in World's End.

0:43:300:43:33

Your next answer, also for World's End, is Paddy Considine.

0:43:330:43:38

Let's hope it's correct, let's hope nobody said it.

0:43:380:43:40

If it is pointless, it'll win you £2,500,

0:43:400:43:43

so let's find out how many people said Paddy Considine.

0:43:430:43:45

It's right.

0:43:470:43:49

So, your first answer, Brian Cox, was incorrect.

0:43:490:43:52

But Paddy Considine is very much in World's End.

0:43:520:43:55

Down it goes, into single figures, still going down.

0:43:550:43:57

-You've done it!

-CHEERING

0:43:570:44:00

Very well done! Superb.

0:44:000:44:01

-Brilliant. Brilliant.

-Incredible!

-That is fantastic.

0:44:020:44:05

What a great answer.

0:44:050:44:06

Amazing!

0:44:090:44:11

Congratulations.

0:44:120:44:14

Paddy Considine was a pointless answer which means you go home

0:44:140:44:17

with that jackpot of £2,500 for your charities.

0:44:170:44:19

This is why I love being in a double act.

0:44:190:44:21

APPLAUSE

0:44:210:44:24

Superb.

0:44:240:44:25

-Very well done.

-Amazing. That's so fantastic.

0:44:270:44:30

Really well deserved.

0:44:300:44:31

I'll put you out of your misery

0:44:310:44:32

on some of those other people that are in World's End.

0:44:320:44:34

-The guy from Gangster No. 1 is Eddie Marsan.

-Eddie Marsan.

0:44:340:44:37

He was also a pointless answer.

0:44:370:44:38

There is a woman in it that's been in James Bond, as well.

0:44:380:44:41

-It's Rosamund Pike.

-That's it!

-Who was also a pointless answer.

-Oh!

0:44:410:44:44

The other answer you gave, Josh Widdicombe,

0:44:440:44:47

was an incorrect answer, so would have scored 100 points.

0:44:470:44:50

Let's have a look at some of the answers. We'll start with Mr Bean.

0:44:500:44:52

You could have had...

0:44:530:44:55

You also could have had Do It Yourself, Mr Bean

0:44:590:45:01

and Mind The Baby, Mr Bean.

0:45:010:45:02

Don't give a... Don't give a baby to Mr Bean, right?

0:45:020:45:06

Chaos would ensue, surely. Now, here's The World's End. Look at that.

0:45:060:45:10

Eddie Marsan, Paddy Considine, Pierce Brosnan.

0:45:100:45:12

He was in a Bond film, wasn't he? LAUGHTER

0:45:120:45:15

And Rosamund Pike.

0:45:150:45:16

In fact, the only people who scored points were

0:45:160:45:18

Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Martin Freeman, Mark Heap,

0:45:180:45:21

Bill Nighy would have scored you one point, if you said him,

0:45:210:45:24

and Reece Shearsmith, as well.

0:45:240:45:26

And Comedy Award nominees.

0:45:260:45:28

These four all won. Adam Hills won Best Breakthrough Artist.

0:45:290:45:32

Nina Conti, who won Best Female Comic.

0:45:320:45:34

Steve Coogan and Will Ferrell, who both won achievement awards.

0:45:340:45:37

Also could have had all sorts of people -

0:45:370:45:39

Greg Davies, James Corden, Jon Richardson.

0:45:390:45:41

You could have had Mel Giedroyc, Sue Perkins, as well.

0:45:410:45:44

But £2,500 safely in the bank. Very well done.

0:45:440:45:46

Two deserving charities, two deserving winners.

0:45:460:45:48

It's been a pleasure to have you here.

0:45:480:45:51

Well, thanks once again to our winning players, Trevor and Simon,

0:45:510:45:55

who go away with today's jackpot of £2,500 for their charities.

0:45:550:45:58

-Very well done, indeed.

-APPLAUSE

0:45:580:46:00

Join us next time,

0:46:020:46:04

when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.

0:46:040:46:07

-Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.

-Goodbye.

0:46:070:46:09

And it's goodbye from me.

0:46:090:46:10

And, playing us out with I'm Too Sexy, it's Right Said Fred.

0:46:100:46:13

-Goodbye.
