0:00:48 > 0:00:49Hi, I'm Jacqui Abbott.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52I was the singer for a spell with The Beautiful South,
0:00:52 > 0:00:55left for ten years, came back again to sing again with Paul.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32And finally, couple number four.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36I'm Dana and I've just always sung by myself, really.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Like Paul here.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40I'm Sheila Ferguson and I'll probably mess up,
0:01:40 > 0:01:43so I was with The Three Degrees and I'm not now.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45WHOOPING
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Thanks, all of you. We'll find out more about each of you
0:01:49 > 0:01:51throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce -
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Rich by name, rich by way of a series of offshore accounts
0:01:56 > 0:01:59and legal loopholes, it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Hiya.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03CHEERING Thank you. Good evening.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06- Good evening to you.- And to you.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08This is exciting, a number one special.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11That's quite good. We've done a few number two specials in our time,
0:02:11 > 0:02:13but number one special? This is... This is a new one.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16We've actually got some experienced Pointless players here.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Good ones as well. On that last podium, we've got Sheila -
0:02:18 > 0:02:20got through to Round Two last time -
0:02:20 > 0:02:21and Dana, who won.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23- Shut up!- Dana won with Johnny Logan.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25- You kept that quiet!- Shut up!
0:02:25 > 0:02:28On podium two, we've got Paul and Carol - also played before.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Paul got through to Round Two, Carol was head-to-head as well,
0:02:31 > 0:02:32so they're all going to be very good.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Podium three, we've got two of one of the biggest-selling bands
0:02:35 > 0:02:37in UK chart history. Boyzone, there.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Podium one, genuinely, I think probably
0:02:39 > 0:02:43the greatest British songwriter of the last 30 years, Paul Heaton,
0:02:43 > 0:02:45with The Housemartins, Beautiful South,
0:02:45 > 0:02:47solo stuff and now with the brilliant Jacqui Abbott as well,
0:02:47 > 0:02:50so I think a terrific line-up of old, experienced hands
0:02:50 > 0:02:51and some great newcomers as well.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54- Should be a cracker. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56As usual, all of today's questions have been put
0:02:56 > 0:02:59to 100 people before the show. Our contestants are looking
0:02:59 > 0:03:01for those all-important pointless answers.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03These are answers that none of our 100 people gave.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Find one of those, we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09Now, as today's show is a celebrity special
0:03:09 > 0:03:12and each of our celebrities here is playing for a nominated charity,
0:03:12 > 0:03:16we start off with a jackpot of £2,500. There it is.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18WHOOPING AND CHEERING
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28All you have to remember is that the pair with the highest score
0:03:28 > 0:03:30at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Your job, if you like, is to make sure you are not that pair.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37Best of luck. Our first category this evening is...
0:03:41 > 0:03:42Can you all decide in your pairs
0:03:42 > 0:03:44who's going first, who's going second?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53OK, let's find out what the question is.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Best Actress Oscar Nominees, Richard.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04We're looking for any actress who's received
0:04:04 > 0:04:06at least one Oscar nomination for best actress,
0:04:06 > 0:04:10all the way through from the 1965 ceremony up to the 2014 ceremony.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13So from 1965 to 2014,
0:04:13 > 0:04:15anyone who's been nominated for best actress.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Very best of luck.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Thank you very much indeed.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Jacqui, welcome to Pointless.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Thank you very much.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25- So you sang with The Beautiful South?- I did.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27But you joined The Beautiful South after...
0:04:27 > 0:04:29- They'd been going some time?- Yes.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32- And how did that come about?- Er...
0:04:32 > 0:04:35I had a very, very, very lucky chance meeting with Paul
0:04:35 > 0:04:37when I was about 17
0:04:37 > 0:04:39and they were playing a gig in my home town
0:04:39 > 0:04:42and I went out with some friends and kind of got talking to him
0:04:42 > 0:04:44and I was prompted to audition in front of him.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Then two years later, after a brief meeting,
0:04:47 > 0:04:50he remembered me voice and got in touch with somebody he knew
0:04:50 > 0:04:51to give me the job.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- So as a fan, you were then promoted?- Yeah.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56It's like Brian Johnson with AC/DC.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58That's fantastic.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00- Yeah, it was.- Really good.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Now, Jacqui, this is the price you pay for being on the first podium.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06You now have to come up with a best actress Oscar nominee
0:05:06 > 0:05:08and I've just been yabbering on to you.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11I'll go with Shirley MacLaine.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Shirley MacLaine, says Jacqui.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15Sounds like a good answer, let's see if it's right.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19Let's see how many of our 100 people said Shirley MacLaine.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22It's right.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29That's a good answer, look at that! 2!
0:05:29 > 0:05:32What a start to the show! Very well done indeed, Jacqui.
0:05:32 > 0:05:342 points for Shirley MacLaine.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Very well played, Jacqui. Great start to your Pointless career.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40She won a best actress Oscar for Terms Of Endearment.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42That's a good start.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Isn't it? 2 points. There we go.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46There we go. Carol.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Carol, welcome back. How did you do last time?
0:05:49 > 0:05:53I got through to the head-to-head by accident.
0:05:54 > 0:05:55- With Limahl!- I did.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58That's right, with Limahl, I remember.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01- In our matching outfits.- Mmm.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04Listen, you're back in the studio making an album.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Yep, I just finished the vocals last week.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10We're just mixing it and we go out on tour next year.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12Very exciting. When were you last on tour?
0:06:12 > 0:06:152013 - we did our 25th anniversary.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18What was that like compared to the old days of T'Pau?
0:06:18 > 0:06:20I imagine slightly earlier nights.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22- Maybe not.- No, actually!
0:06:23 > 0:06:26I can still be very badly behaved.
0:06:26 > 0:06:27It was great fun, it was really good,
0:06:27 > 0:06:32and it was nice because I was back with my ex-partner in crime,
0:06:32 > 0:06:36Ron Rogers, who'd co-written all the T'Pau hits and put the band together
0:06:36 > 0:06:39with me back in the '80s, so it was really nice to reconnect
0:06:39 > 0:06:43on a personal and professional level and we put a great line-up together
0:06:43 > 0:06:45of hot, young musicians.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47I don't want anyone else onstage my age.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50I want nice, oiled young men.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52- Do you oil them yourself? - Personally, yeah.- Bit of WD-40.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Then I drink them under the table just to put them in their place.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Quite right. Now, Carol, best actress nominees.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Golly...
0:07:01 > 0:07:02- Sally Field.- Sally Field?
0:07:02 > 0:07:04- Yeah.- Sally Field, says Carol.
0:07:04 > 0:07:09Let's see if it's right and how many of our 100 people said Sally Field.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15It's right. Well, 2 is our only score so far.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Can Sally Field go lower than Shirley MacLaine?
0:07:18 > 0:07:193, look at that!
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Good one.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26There you go, Carol Decker, in the game.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Another terrific answer, well done.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30It puts a lot of pressure on the last two podiums there.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32She won twice for Norma Rae
0:07:32 > 0:07:34and Places In The Heart.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40- Mikey, welcome to Pointless. - Thank you very much.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Great to have you. You've just had a million and one number ones -
0:07:43 > 0:07:47- how many...?- We would have liked to have had a million and one.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49How many did you have?
0:07:49 > 0:07:52In total in the UK, we had six.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55We had, well...
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- 28 top threes. - 28 top threes at the moment.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Cor. Do you have a favourite song?
0:08:00 > 0:08:02- Quite a few. - Yeah, but it's not a Boyzone one.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04LAUGHTER
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- There you go. - Quite a few, quite a few.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10No Matter What, Words - they are two of the best.
0:08:10 > 0:08:11What are you up to at the moment, Mikey?
0:08:11 > 0:08:16We've just completed a new Motown album called Dublin To Detroit,
0:08:16 > 0:08:18which is released now in time for Christmas,
0:08:18 > 0:08:22so we're beginning all of our promotional campaign for that.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24Well, best of luck with that album, Mikey.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Now, best actress nominees.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30This is a young Irish actress that I'm almost sure was up
0:08:30 > 0:08:33for a nominee over the last couple of years.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Her name is Saoirse Ronan.
0:08:36 > 0:08:37Saoirse Ronan?
0:08:37 > 0:08:40Saoirse Ronan, let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:08:40 > 0:08:43how many of our 100 people said Saoirse Ronan?
0:08:46 > 0:08:48AUDIENCE GROANS
0:08:48 > 0:08:49I told ya!
0:08:51 > 0:08:54I'm afraid Saoirse Ronan - not an Oscar nominee
0:08:54 > 0:08:57in the best actress category.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Not a bad answer and a great actress as well.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01She was nominated for best supporting actress...
0:09:01 > 0:09:04- I knew she was nominated. - ..for Atonement.
0:09:04 > 0:09:05Yeah, Atonement.
0:09:05 > 0:09:06Thanks very much, Richard.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09- Sheila, welcome back.- Thank you!
0:09:09 > 0:09:12- You were on with Sandie Shaw. - Yes, how could we ever forget?
0:09:12 > 0:09:16My goodness, that was a long record.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18It was an interesting, um, experience
0:09:18 > 0:09:21- in how to change the rules of television.- Yeah!
0:09:21 > 0:09:23You sang with The Three Degrees.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25I'm trying to... It was either Prince Charles's birthday
0:09:25 > 0:09:27or it was the royal wedding, or maybe it was both.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31We were invited to the wedding, but I was pregnant, couldn't go,
0:09:31 > 0:09:34but we performed at his 30th birthday party
0:09:34 > 0:09:35and we were his guests
0:09:35 > 0:09:37and we walked in - it was like the parting of the Red Sea
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- with Mr Darcy, it was really funny. - LAUGHTER
0:09:40 > 0:09:43It was kind of surreal in that I was dancing with Charles,
0:09:43 > 0:09:45one was dancing with Prince Philip
0:09:45 > 0:09:48and one was dancing with Prince... What's the other one? ..Andrew!
0:09:48 > 0:09:51And everybody was, like, agog.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- Those are kind of moments you remember.- Fantastic.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56- Now, Sheila.- Yes?
0:09:56 > 0:09:58How are we feeling about this as a question?
0:09:58 > 0:10:00OK, I won't go with the obvious. I'll say Susan Hayward.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02Susan Hayward, says Sheila.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Susan Hayward, let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:10:05 > 0:10:07how many of our 100 people said that?
0:10:08 > 0:10:09Come on, go down!
0:10:11 > 0:10:12- Uh!- Ohhhh!
0:10:13 > 0:10:16Well, we're doing OK.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Not a correct answer there, I'm afraid.
0:10:18 > 0:10:19Scores you 100 points, I'm sorry.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Yeah, sorry, Sheila - she's been nominated five times,
0:10:22 > 0:10:24but all before 1965, I'm afraid.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26- Gotcha.- Thank you very much indeed.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Richard, we are halfway through the round -
0:10:28 > 0:10:31let's take a look at the scores as they stand.
0:10:31 > 0:10:352, Jacqui. Exemplary play there. The lowest score of the round.
0:10:35 > 0:10:36Thank you.
0:10:36 > 0:10:37Carol, 3.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Also exemplary play.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Then we go up to 100, joint high scorers -
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Sheila and Dana, Mikey and Keith.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Dana and Keith, it's between you two.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48One of you will be staying, one of you, I fear, will be leaving.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Good luck with that. Back down the line -
0:10:50 > 0:10:52can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:56 > 0:10:59- So, Dana, welcome back.- Thank you!
0:10:59 > 0:11:00A winner.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02A previous winner on Pointless.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04I know. My family can't get over it yet.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07That was just a lovely show.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10It'd be nice to have the other bookend, I think, for the...
0:11:10 > 0:11:12You know.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16- Dana, are you still in politics? - No, I'm not in politics
0:11:16 > 0:11:19and I'm beginning to just dip my feet in the water,
0:11:19 > 0:11:22going back into show business, which is...
0:11:22 > 0:11:25- a much nicer place to be.- Mmm!
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Now, best actress nominees.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30You're joint high scorers with Keith and Mikey.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33We have to have a low score from you, Dana.
0:11:33 > 0:11:37I'm going to say Elizabeth Taylor.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Elizabeth Taylor, says Dana.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41No red line for you, as you're joint high scorers,
0:11:41 > 0:11:44but let's see how many of our 100 people said Elizabeth Taylor.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Is it right?
0:11:47 > 0:11:49- SHEILA:- Don't do this to her! - It's right.
0:11:49 > 0:11:50- Thank God!- It's right.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Down it goes, still going down...!
0:11:55 > 0:11:563! Look at that!
0:11:56 > 0:11:58Very well done indeed, Dana.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00That's my job! Yeah!
0:12:00 > 0:12:04- Whoo-whoo!- 103, your total.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08Given Keith a very big job to do there, Dana. Very well played.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Won once in this timeframe for Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?
0:12:11 > 0:12:14Thank you very much indeed.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19So Keith, after Boyzone, you went into acting.
0:12:19 > 0:12:20You were in Corrie for a bit.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22- I was, yeah. - How long did you do in Corrie?
0:12:22 > 0:12:24On and off, ten years.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26But then back into Boyzone, they just get you back in.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Do you find that no sooner have you set up another career
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- than suddenly Boyzone... - They just keep dragging me down.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34- Dragging you down!- Every time I get a little bit of success,
0:12:34 > 0:12:36they pull me back to base.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39- Terrible. - Do you still keep up with Louis?
0:12:39 > 0:12:42We don't work together any more, but we bump into him on the street
0:12:42 > 0:12:44when we're going to buy our loaf of bread in the morning
0:12:44 > 0:12:46and stuff like that.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Ireland is tiny. We know everybody.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52Now, then, Keith... As Richard said,
0:12:52 > 0:12:54you've got a bit of a mountain to climb here.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Ideally, you should be scoring 2 or less.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57- OK.- 2 or less.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00No, no. I'm just going to make sure to catch that flight.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02LAUGHTER
0:13:02 > 0:13:05- What are you going to go for? - Meryl Streep.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07Meryl Streep. Meryl Streep.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Your red... There it is. I thought for a moment...
0:13:10 > 0:13:13It was there, I just couldn't see it, but it is there.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16OK, let's see, Meryl Streep. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Will it get you below that red line?
0:13:20 > 0:13:21It's right.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26You're catching that plane, Keith.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28APPLAUSE
0:13:28 > 0:13:30That's us out of here!
0:13:32 > 0:13:3538 takes your total up to 138.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Good answer, but actually the most nominated actress of all time -
0:13:38 > 0:13:3915 times she's been nominated.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Yeah, I know me stuff!
0:13:42 > 0:13:44- Yes(!) Won it twice. - No conferring, Mike.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Won it twice.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Paul, welcome back.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Paul, can you believe it?
0:13:53 > 0:13:55- It's 30 years...- Don't tell me.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57..since you sang that first line...
0:13:57 > 0:13:59- on Band Aid.- Oh, yeah!
0:13:59 > 0:14:01It's even longer since my first album, but, yeah.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02You're right.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04When you were doing it,
0:14:04 > 0:14:07did Midge and Bob just tell you which line you were doing,
0:14:07 > 0:14:10- or did you...? - I had the piece in the middle.
0:14:10 > 0:14:14- Yeah.- I thought that was it and my day was done,
0:14:14 > 0:14:18until the final shoot at the end and then they called me back in.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22- I thought I'd done something wrong. - Who had originally done it?
0:14:22 > 0:14:23Nobody, they hadn't decided.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26It was one of those things where they'd got everything else
0:14:26 > 0:14:28and they hadn't got the first line.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31I think they were just conferring and conferring.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Now, I believe that...
0:14:34 > 0:14:36David Bowie was in line,
0:14:36 > 0:14:39but he was touring Japan, but anyway, for whatever reason,
0:14:39 > 0:14:42I was called back in and they asked me to do the first line.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44I heard it was Musical Youth who were supposed to do it
0:14:44 > 0:14:46and it just got too late.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48LAUGHTER
0:14:48 > 0:14:51- That's the problem, they had to... CAROL:- They had to go to bed!
0:14:51 > 0:14:54There we go. Now, Paul, good news - you are through to the next round.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58- Yes, I am. - But let's have an answer from you.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Let's see if you can get even lower than Carol.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03Er, I was going to go with Lauren Bacall.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Lauren Bacall, says Paul.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07Lauren Bacall. No red line for the lovely reason
0:15:07 > 0:15:10you're already through. Let's see if Lauren Bacall is right.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Let's see how many people said it.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16- AUDIENCE GROANS - Aww!
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Bad luck, an incorrect answer scores you 100 points.
0:15:18 > 0:15:19Couldn't matter less -
0:15:19 > 0:15:21you're already through. 103.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23She only got an honorary Oscar, Lauren Bacall.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26Never been nominated for a best actress Oscar.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Thank you very much, Richard.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30Now, Paul...
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Paul, Happy Hour, song of my O levels.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34- That was it?- Yeah.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36- Did you fail?- Good to hear(!)
0:15:36 > 0:15:39- Yeah!- "I remember that when I was eight..."
0:15:39 > 0:15:41No! Just leaving O levels, coming out and going...
0:15:41 > 0:15:45Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah, yeah. I took them very late, maybe.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49You are going to be singing for us later.
0:15:49 > 0:15:50Yes, we are, yeah.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54Me and Jacqui are singing our Christmas single, really.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57We've had an album out this year
0:15:57 > 0:16:00and we're just at the back end of promoting that,
0:16:00 > 0:16:05but we've just got this extra track, really for you at Pointless
0:16:05 > 0:16:07and the people at home as well.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Thank you. Really can't wait for that.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13Now, you've had a little bit of time to think of a real knockout answer.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16We haven't had a pointless answer and I bet there are some.
0:16:16 > 0:16:22I think Diane Keaton might have had an Oscar nominee.
0:16:22 > 0:16:23Diane Keaton.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26You're getting nods from all the people you'd want to get nods from.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28No red line for you, you're already through, but let's see.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Diane Keaton - is that right?
0:16:30 > 0:16:33If it is, how many of our 100 people said Diane Keaton?
0:16:35 > 0:16:36It's right.
0:16:36 > 0:16:402 is our lowest score so far, from Jacqui.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45- 3! Very well done indeed! - APPLAUSE
0:16:45 > 0:16:46A total of 5,
0:16:46 > 0:16:48our only single-figure total. Well done.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Great answer, Paul, very well played.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52Not as good as Jacqui's, but still a great answer.
0:16:52 > 0:16:53One for Annie Hall
0:16:53 > 0:16:56and also been nominated for other films.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers -
0:16:58 > 0:16:59all sorts of pointless answers here.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03Emmanuelle Riva, the oldest ever nominee at 85, for Amour.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Imelda Staunton was a pointless answer.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Julianne Moore has had a couple of nominations, brilliant actress.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11You could have had...
0:17:11 > 0:17:12Julie Christie.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15Kristin Scott Thomas, who was nominated for The English Patient.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18Liza Minnelli for Cabaret, amongst others.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21Marion Cotillard for La Vie En Rose,
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Michelle Pfeiffer, Sophia Loren.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Lots of other pointless answers - Annette Bening, Anne Bancroft,
0:17:26 > 0:17:29Anjelica Huston, Carey Mulligan, Debbie Reynolds...
0:17:29 > 0:17:32You could have had Miranda Richardson, Samantha Morton,
0:17:32 > 0:17:33all sorts of pointless answers.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35Well done if you said any of those.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Let's take a look at the top three answers,
0:17:37 > 0:17:39the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:17:39 > 0:17:40I imagine one of them will be familiar.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42Kate Winslet would have scored you 26.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45Judi Dench - 33,
0:17:45 > 0:17:49and right at the top, Keith, Meryl Streep with 38.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53At least it's right! There's a lot of 100s out there.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Thanks very much, Richard.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57At the end of our first round, the pair who are heading home
0:17:57 > 0:18:00with their high score of 138, you're not miles ahead,
0:18:00 > 0:18:02but I'm afraid you are the high scorers, Keith and Mikey,
0:18:02 > 0:18:03so we have to say goodbye to you.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05- Lovely to have you on the show. - Thank you.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Thank you for joining us. Best of luck with the new album.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10- Keith and Mikey. - BOTH:- Thank you.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12WHOOPING AND APPLAUSE
0:18:12 > 0:18:15But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20And then there were three pairs.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23At the end of this round, we'll have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:18:23 > 0:18:28Our four returners - Paul, Carol, Sheila and Dana -
0:18:28 > 0:18:29you were tied on 103.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31- 103.- Ooh!
0:18:31 > 0:18:34- Our newcomers...they scored 5.- Wow!
0:18:34 > 0:18:385... I mean, the lowest individual score, the lowest combined score -
0:18:38 > 0:18:40you were just ace.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43It's just brilliant. Anyway, best of luck to all three pairs.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Our category for Round Two this evening is...
0:18:48 > 0:18:51- Uh-oh.- Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:18:51 > 0:18:53who's going to go second?
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01OK, and the question concerns...
0:19:05 > 0:19:07French Words For Food And Drink.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10- Is that good, Sheila? - Terrific - I live in Majorca.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12- Terrific, thank you very much(!) - Excellent!
0:19:12 > 0:19:15Everyone else lives in England. That's like...
0:19:16 > 0:19:18- Y'all are all right, then. - It's still not France.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21- True.- On each board, we're going to give you
0:19:21 > 0:19:22six French terms for food and drink.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Tell us what they are in English, please.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Give us a nice, obscure answer, you'll score fewer points.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30An incorrect answer, you're going to score 100 points.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34Six on each board, 12 in all to have a go at at home. Very best of luck.
0:19:34 > 0:19:35Thanks very much indeed.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Let's reveal our first board of six and here they come.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43HE READS OUT FRENCH OPTIONS
0:19:47 > 0:19:49SHEILA GUFFAWS LOUDLY
0:19:49 > 0:19:50Ha! Sorry.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53- What am I supposed to do? - I'm going to read them again.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56HE READS OUT FRENCH OPTIONS
0:19:59 > 0:20:02OK, so, Paul...
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Paul H.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08Um... Well, I'm not very good with French, really.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09At all.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12I suppose I'm going to have to go with le bonbon...
0:20:12 > 0:20:14which I think is probably "sweet".
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Le bonbon, a sweet.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Let's see. Sweet. Let's see if that's right,
0:20:19 > 0:20:22and if it is, how many of our 100 people said sweet for bonbon?
0:20:24 > 0:20:25It's right.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30- Ooh, it's a high one. 83... - APPLAUSE
0:20:30 > 0:20:31..for sweet.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36Yeah, literally a "good-good", a bonbon.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Thanks very much indeed.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Now, Paul. Paul Y.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42I'm glad I'm in second, cos I'm not too good on French either.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45Spanish and Italian I'm a bit better at.
0:20:46 > 0:20:50So, I'm going to go with la moule, which is mussels.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Mussel. Moule.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Mussel. Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:20:54 > 0:20:56how many of our 100 people said mussel?
0:20:59 > 0:21:02It's right. Passes 83.
0:21:02 > 0:21:0354.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06- APPLAUSE - Not bad. Good enough, anyway.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Well played, Paul. Very good answer there.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12Very eco-friendly, mussels. Very eco-friendly thing to eat.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15They're very easy to farm, and very nutritious.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17- Mm, they are. - And delicious with chips, as well.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Delicious with chips! Mm.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21- Mm-mm-mm. Sheila...- Yo.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23You're the last person to have this board.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27- Yeah, yeah.- Do you want to talk us through it and fill in the blanks?
0:21:27 > 0:21:32Well, let's just say, um, if I went with la farine, it might be flour.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36Farine, flour, says Sheila, let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:21:36 > 0:21:39how many of our 100 people said flour?
0:21:40 > 0:21:42It's right!
0:21:42 > 0:21:43You pass 83.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46You pass 54.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48- 26 for flour!- Oh, my God!
0:21:48 > 0:21:50APPLAUSE
0:21:50 > 0:21:52This is good, Sheila, this is very good.
0:21:52 > 0:21:5326 for flour.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56- Oh!- Yeah, all this, "Oh, I don't know, what an awful category for me.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58"Oh, I don't know any of those,"
0:21:58 > 0:22:02and then coming up with one of the best answers on the board, Sheila.
0:22:02 > 0:22:03In Great British Bake Off
0:22:03 > 0:22:05they used 24 different types of flour this series.
0:22:05 > 0:22:06Wow. There we go.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Er, now, let's fill in the rest of these...
0:22:08 > 0:22:09THEY CHUCKLE Goodness me.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10- Le lait?- Milk.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Milk, yeah. Big scorer, though.
0:22:12 > 0:22:13Would have scored you 80. L'agneau?
0:22:13 > 0:22:15- Lamb.- Lamb, yeah.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Another big scorer, 31.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19And la cannelle.
0:22:19 > 0:22:20It's cinnamon.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Cinnamon.
0:22:22 > 0:22:23Very well done if you said that -
0:22:23 > 0:22:25would have scored you 2 points.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Wow. There we go. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29We're halfway through the round.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32Let's check out those scores. 26, the best score of the pass, Sheila.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Very well done indeed.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36Then up to 54, where we find Paul Y and Carol.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Then up to 83, where we find Paul H and Jacqui.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42So, yes, Jacqui, we need a low score from you. How's your French?
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Not great.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45It's not great, but...
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Once you see the words you kind of connect them together,
0:22:48 > 0:22:49- don't you?- Yeah. Well, good luck.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Let's hope there's something up there that only you know.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Best of luck with that. We'll come back down the line now -
0:22:54 > 0:22:56can the second players step up to the podium?
0:22:58 > 0:23:01So, let's put six more French words up on the board -
0:23:01 > 0:23:02and here they come.
0:23:02 > 0:23:03We've got...
0:23:10 > 0:23:13I'll read those one last time.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21- Dana.- No conferring?
0:23:21 > 0:23:23No conferring, alas.
0:23:23 > 0:23:24OK.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29I'll go with le sel...
0:23:29 > 0:23:31- salt.- Salt, says Dana.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Salt. You want to be scoring 56 or less
0:23:34 > 0:23:35to be sure of a place in the next round.
0:23:35 > 0:23:36There's your red line.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Below that, you're through.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Let's see how many of our 100 said salt.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44It's right.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48And you're through - just! Look at that, 54.
0:23:48 > 0:23:49- APPLAUSE - Bring the game, girl.
0:23:49 > 0:23:5156, you needed. 54, you got.
0:23:51 > 0:23:5280 is your total.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58Very well played, Dana. Yes, safely through. Le sel.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59- Sodium chloride.- There we are.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01- They don't call it that, do they?- No.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03No, they do not.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05It's weird that there's salt mines, isn't it?
0:24:05 > 0:24:06- Don't you think that's weird?- Yeah...
0:24:06 > 0:24:08What a weird place to work.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10It's like working in a ketchup reservoir.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12LAUGHTER
0:24:14 > 0:24:17Yeah! OK, now, Carol.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21- Oui.- Carol, what are you going to go for?
0:24:21 > 0:24:24OK, well, my French is schoolgirl patchy,
0:24:24 > 0:24:26so there's some up there I really don't know,
0:24:26 > 0:24:29but there's one I hope I do know.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32L'huitre, I think, is oyster.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Huitre, oyster.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36There we go. Now, here's you red line.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Quite low. Get below that with oyster
0:24:38 > 0:24:40and you are into the next round.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Let's see how many of our 100 people said oyster.
0:24:45 > 0:24:46It's quite right.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Gets you through - look at that!
0:24:51 > 0:24:52Nothing patchy about that, Carol.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56- APPLAUSE - 15, takes your total up to 69.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59Well played, Carol.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03Very good answer, and another very nutritious, very easy to farm food.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Very good. Thank you very much indeed.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Now, Jacqui.
0:25:07 > 0:25:08I have really sad news.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10I have sad news.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11You are the high scorers,
0:25:11 > 0:25:14before you've given your answer.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18But there is a board there full of French items of food and drink.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20Do you want to have a crack at any of them?
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Just talk us through as many of them as you can.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25Hah! I'm dreading it being completely wrong, it probably is.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28I'm going to go for le fromage, and I think it's cheese.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Cheese, says Jacqui, for le fromage.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33I'm afraid no red line for you as you're our high scorers.
0:25:33 > 0:25:37But let's see how many of our 100 people said cheese for fromage.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42It's absolutely ri...ay, ay. Look at that.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45- 86. - APPLAUSE
0:25:45 > 0:25:46Takes your total up to 169.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51It's genuinely impressive on that first podium
0:25:51 > 0:25:52to have two correct answers
0:25:52 > 0:25:54and get 169 points.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56That's going it some.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58- But no wrong answers. That's the beauty of it.- Very good.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Fromage, absolutely right. Cheese.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Le pasteque - you'd think it was pasta, wouldn't you?
0:26:02 > 0:26:04If you didn't know anything, like me.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08- It's watermelon.- It's a... Ah, yeah.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10Would have scored you 4 points. Well done to our four.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12- La biere...- Beer.
0:26:12 > 0:26:13..is beer. Yeah.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15That would have scored 70.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17- Myrtille? - Myrtille I think is a blackcurrant.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19- Is that right? - Well, it's a bilberry.
0:26:19 > 0:26:20- It's a bilberry.- Oh, right.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Much the same. 6 points for that.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25So, watermelon, the best answer on the board.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29So, at the end of our second round, I'm very sorry to say the pair
0:26:29 > 0:26:32who are heading home with the high score of 169 is Jacqui and Paul.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36- FRENCH ACCENT: - Jacqui Abbott and Paul Heaton.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39I'm afraid this is goodbye. It's been a treat having you here.
0:26:39 > 0:26:43- Thank you.- We were let down on our diet, really, weren't we?
0:26:43 > 0:26:45We both pick things we stuff ourselves with.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47When you're on tour in France,
0:26:47 > 0:26:48what do you eat?
0:26:48 > 0:26:49Oh, you send someone out...
0:26:49 > 0:26:51- Cheese and sweets. - Cheese and sweets!
0:26:51 > 0:26:53- LAUGHTER - There's your answer.
0:26:53 > 0:26:57- It's all you need. - APPLAUSE
0:26:57 > 0:26:58But we're not really saying goodbye,
0:26:58 > 0:27:01cos you're going to be playing us out at the end of the show...
0:27:01 > 0:27:03- That's right, yeah.- ..which we are looking forward to so much.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05- But thank you for playing. - Thanks for having us.
0:27:05 > 0:27:06Jacqui and Paul.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09CHEERING
0:27:11 > 0:27:13But for Sheila and Dana, Paul and Carol,
0:27:13 > 0:27:15it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:27:23 > 0:27:25and a chance to play for our jackpot,

0:27:28 > 0:27:30- AUDIENCE:- Ooh!
0:27:32 > 0:27:34We've reached the point where we have to decide
0:27:34 > 0:27:35who is going to go through to the final
0:27:35 > 0:27:37and play for that money for their charities -
0:27:37 > 0:27:40and to do that, we're going to make you go head-to-head.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43The difference is, you can now have a chat before you give your answers,
0:27:43 > 0:27:45you can confer, and the first pair to win two questions
0:27:45 > 0:27:47will be playing for that jackpot.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:28:02 > 0:28:03- SHEILA:- Hah! - CAROL:- Aww.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06Exactly. Aww. Animals In The Snow. Richard.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10of animals in the snow - I hope they're OK(!)
0:28:10 > 0:28:13You just need to tell us what animals they are.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16We'll give you some of the letters of their name to help you out.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20So, let's reveal our five pictures of animals in the snow!
0:28:22 > 0:28:24- Aww.- Aww!
0:28:24 > 0:28:28- That's just in the snow, it's not... - Yeah, that animal's fine.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30- B!- Aww!
0:28:30 > 0:28:33- Again, fine in the snow, I think. - Yeah.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35- C...!- Aww!

0:28:46 > 0:28:48Look at that.
0:28:48 > 0:28:49Thrilling. Well, listen, there we go.

0:28:53 > 0:28:55- PAUL:- I've got E and B.
0:28:55 > 0:28:57(The only one I know is an arctic fox.)
0:28:57 > 0:28:58Yeah, OK.
0:28:58 > 0:28:59- Do you know E?- Yeah.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02- Clever boy. OK, you go first. - Shall I go first, then?
0:29:02 > 0:29:03OK, come on, then, Paul.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06OK, I'm going to go with E,
0:29:06 > 0:29:08which is a red panda.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11A red panda - E, a red panda.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14Now, then, Sheila and Dana, do you want to talk us through the board?
0:29:14 > 0:29:18BOTH: No! LAUGHTER
0:29:18 > 0:29:21- We're going to go with B. - We'll try B...
0:29:22 > 0:29:23..albino fox.
0:29:23 > 0:29:24Albino fox.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26I would say al-BY-no fox.
0:29:26 > 0:29:27- Albino fox.- Albino fox.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30OK. So, red panda and albino fox.
0:29:30 > 0:29:32Paul and Carol have gone for red panda for E.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Let's see if that's right,
0:29:34 > 0:29:37and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said red panda.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41It's right.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47- 32. - APPLAUSE
0:29:47 > 0:29:50- Not bad at all. Well done, Paul. - SHEILA:- You know your animal world!
0:29:52 > 0:29:56Sheila and Dana, meanwhile, have said that B is an albino fox.
0:29:56 > 0:29:58An albino fox. Let's see if that's right,
0:29:58 > 0:30:01and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:30:04 > 0:30:05- Oh...- Oh, my God!
0:30:05 > 0:30:06I'm afraid not an...
0:30:06 > 0:30:08My daughters will never speak to me again!
0:30:08 > 0:30:11..albino fox, which means - well done, Paul and Carol,
0:30:11 > 0:30:12after one question you're up 1-0.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15Yeah, well played, Paul, there, terrific answer, red panda.
0:30:15 > 0:30:18Yeah, not an albino or al-BY-no fox, it's actually an arctic fox.
0:30:18 > 0:30:22Or an ERC-tic fox, as I know you call it, Sheila.
0:30:22 > 0:30:24SHEILA LAUGHS
0:30:24 > 0:30:25Now, let's take a look at the rest of them.
0:30:25 > 0:30:28A... Well done if you got this, it's a terrific answer,
0:30:28 > 0:30:30it's a snowshoe hare.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32Snowshoe. Would have scored you 2 points.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36C... Aww! Look at C.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38..is a harp seal.
0:30:38 > 0:30:39- PAUL:- Oh, of course.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41Would have scored you... That is cute, isn't it?
0:30:41 > 0:30:43- That is.- ..26 points.
0:30:43 > 0:30:44I mean, goodness me.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47And D...is a pine marten,
0:30:47 > 0:30:49and would have scored you 38 points.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52So, red panda, terrific answer.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54Thank you, Richard. So, here comes your second question.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57Sheila and Dana, you get to answer this one first, which is good.
0:30:57 > 0:30:59But you have to win it to stay in the game,
0:30:59 > 0:31:01which is a bit of pressure.
0:31:01 > 0:31:04OK, and our second question today concerns...
0:31:06 > 0:31:08US TV Themes. Richard.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11We're now going to play you five arrangements of different TV themes
0:31:11 > 0:31:14from American shows - you just need to tell us the name of the shows.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16Very best of luck.
0:31:16 > 0:31:20OK, so, let's listen to our five US TV themes - and here they come.

0:32:42 > 0:32:44- Is that it?- That is it.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46There are the five pieces of music.
0:32:46 > 0:32:48Now, then, Sheila and Dana...
0:32:48 > 0:32:52- We're going to go with C, which is...- Dallas.
0:32:52 > 0:32:53C, Dallas.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56C, Dallas, say Sheila and Dana. C, Dallas.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58Now, Paul and Carol, it's over to you.
0:32:58 > 0:33:00Um, I think we know a couple of them,
0:33:00 > 0:33:02but I think Paul's picked a really good one.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04So, I'm going to let you be the master on this.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06- Oh, thanks(!)- No pressure.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09I was going to go with B, and I think it's Law & Order.
0:33:09 > 0:33:10Law & Order.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Law & Order.
0:33:12 > 0:33:14So, we have Dallas and we have Law & Order.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17Sheila and Dana said Dallas, let's see if that's right,
0:33:17 > 0:33:19and if it is, let's see how many people said that for C.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21Dallas for C.
0:33:23 > 0:33:24It's right.
0:33:26 > 0:33:2772.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29- APPLAUSE - Not bad, not bad.
0:33:29 > 0:33:30I knew it.
0:33:30 > 0:33:33So, Paul and Carol have said Law & Order for B.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35Let's see if that's right,
0:33:35 > 0:33:37and if it is, how many people said Law & Order?
0:33:41 > 0:33:43- Oh, not Law & Order, I'm afraid. - How?
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Which means, Sheila and Dana, you're back in the game.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47After two questions, it's 1-1.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50Dallas actually the biggest scorer on the board,
0:33:50 > 0:33:52so if you know any of the others, you would have won the point.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54Let's have a listen to them. So, A is...
0:33:54 > 0:33:57MUSIC: I'll Be There For You by The Rembrandts
0:33:57 > 0:33:59..Friends. Would have scored you 51 points.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01Would have seen you through to the final.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03B, which you said was Law & Order...
0:34:03 > 0:34:06- DRAMATIC '90s THEME PLAYS It's ER.- Oh!- Of course.
0:34:06 > 0:34:07Damn.

0:34:10 > 0:34:12LATIN-JAZZ THEME PLAYS
0:34:12 > 0:34:14- Sex And The City. CAROL:- Yes!
0:34:14 > 0:34:16And that would have scored you 9 points.
0:34:16 > 0:34:18- Wow!- Oh! - Would have been a very good answer.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21And the best answer on the board is E, which is....
0:34:21 > 0:34:22SLOW, CHIMING THEME PLAYS
0:34:22 > 0:34:25- Six Feet Under.- Six Feet Under.
0:34:25 > 0:34:26Absolutely.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29- Would have scored you 5 points. - That's not a theme tune,
0:34:29 > 0:34:30that's just a "dong".
0:34:30 > 0:34:32- SHEILA:- Exactly! It's a "dong". Dong-key.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34There we are.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37OK, so, it all comes down to this - the decider, the third question.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40Whoever wins this goes through to the final and plays for the jackpot.
0:34:40 > 0:34:42Best of luck to both players. It concerns...
0:34:45 > 0:34:48- The Number One.- Yeah, simply going to show you five clues, now,
0:34:48 > 0:34:49to facts about the number one.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51Whichever team gives us the most obscure answer
0:34:51 > 0:34:53is going through to play for the jackpot.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56- So, very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59OK, let's reveal our five clues - and here they come.
0:34:59 > 0:35:00We've got...
0:35:15 > 0:35:17I'll read those all again.
0:35:32 > 0:35:35Now, it's back to you, Paul and Carol, to start us off.
0:35:35 > 0:35:38Oh...I know the detective lady novel and programme,
0:35:38 > 0:35:41it's really good and I can't remember her name.
0:35:41 > 0:35:45What about the decade in which the Beeb made its first broadcast?
0:35:45 > 0:35:47- Well, I know...- Would you say '50s?
0:35:47 > 0:35:51- No, BBC Radio One, so their first song was...- BBC Radio 1?
0:35:51 > 0:35:53- Oh, sorry... - ..Blackberry Way, I believe.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57OK, well, we're going to go for the 1960s as the decade
0:35:57 > 0:36:01in which BBC Radio One made its first broadcast.
0:36:01 > 0:36:02OK, the 1960s for Radio One.
0:36:02 > 0:36:05Now, Sheila and Dana, the board is all yours.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07Talk us through it if you can.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09All right, the colour of the snooker ball worth one point...
0:36:09 > 0:36:11What do you think?
0:36:11 > 0:36:13- Blue? Red?- They don't have yellow?
0:36:13 > 0:36:16- Oh, they do. Do they have green? - I don't know.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18- So...- Blue.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20- Blue. - OK, you're going to go with blue.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23Blue. So, we have the 1960s and we have blue.
0:36:23 > 0:36:25Now, Paul and Carol have said BBC Radio One
0:36:25 > 0:36:28started broadcasting in the 1960s.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34It's right.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36THEY MUMBLE
0:36:37 > 0:36:40- 54 for the 1960s. - APPLAUSE
0:36:40 > 0:36:43Sheila and Dana, meanwhile, have said it's the blue ball
0:36:43 > 0:36:45on the snooker table that's worth only one point.
0:36:45 > 0:36:46Let's see if that's right.
0:36:46 > 0:36:50Oh, Lord. Come on! Don't put me in suspense like this.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52- Oh!- Ahh.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54I'm afraid not the blue ball.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57Which means, after three questions, Paul and Carol, well done -
0:36:57 > 0:36:59you are through to the final 2-1.
0:36:59 > 0:37:00Well played, Paul and Carol.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03Yeah, absolutely right, 1967 was the year as well.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Now, the snooker question, er...
0:37:05 > 0:37:07You went through a lot!
0:37:07 > 0:37:10- Er, it is, of course, red. Red is the answer.- Oh, no.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13- As only 74 of our 100 knew. - They're so common.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15So, you would have been knocked out anyway.
0:37:15 > 0:37:1674 points for that.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18Now, the Ghanaian-born musician -
0:37:18 > 0:37:22he just did a brilliant duet with the Chuckle Brothers.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24- Oh, is it Tinchy Stryder? - It is, Tinchy Stryder.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26Would have scored you one point.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29Er, the chemical element is hydrogen.
0:37:29 > 0:37:30Would have scored you 31.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33And the author of The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency novels...
0:37:33 > 0:37:36- Alexander McCall Smith. - Alexander McCall Smith,
0:37:36 > 0:37:37for 16 points.
0:37:37 > 0:37:38Thank you very much, Richard.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round -
0:37:41 > 0:37:44- I'm afraid Dana, so close, there. - I know.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47- So close! But I'm afraid it was not to be this time.- Well, thank you.
0:37:47 > 0:37:49But Sheila, Dana, it's been a pleasure having you back.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52- It has been.- Thank you so much for coming and playing.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54- Sheila and Dana, great contestants. - APPLAUSE
0:37:55 > 0:37:59But, for Paul and Carol, it's time for our Pointless final.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05Congratulations, Paul and Carol, you've seen off all the competition
0:38:05 > 0:38:08and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot for your charities,
0:38:16 > 0:38:21and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £2,500.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23- AUDIENCE:- Ooh!
0:38:23 > 0:38:26Well, very solid performance.
0:38:26 > 0:38:30Very solid. I think the only misstep along the way was Law & Order.
0:38:30 > 0:38:31- Still, who cares?- Yeah!
0:38:31 > 0:38:32- Here you are.- Yes.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34Now, it would be great to have a win here.
0:38:34 > 0:38:36As always, you get to choose your category
0:38:36 > 0:38:37from the four we put up on the board,
0:38:37 > 0:38:40so let's hope there's something up there you like the look of.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43Let's see what today's offering is. We have...
0:38:49 > 0:38:50Word Endings...
0:38:50 > 0:38:52- Yeah, I was going to say that as well.- Yeah.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55- Word Endings, I think. - Word Endings, I think.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58- Yeah, that feels all right. - Word Endings.- Word Endings it is.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00- Richard.- Yeah, it's a fun one, this - we're looking for any word
0:39:00 > 0:39:04that has its own entry in the Oxford Dictionary of English which ends...
0:39:12 > 0:39:13So, any word with its own entry
0:39:13 > 0:39:17in the Oxford Dictionary of English that ends BBLE, DDLE or ZZLE.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19Very best of luck.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:39:21 > 0:39:23Now, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers,
0:39:23 > 0:39:26and all you need to win that money for your charities
0:39:26 > 0:39:28is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30- Are you ready?- Ready.
0:39:30 > 0:39:31OK, let's put 60 seconds
0:39:31 > 0:39:32up on the clock.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34There they are. Your time starts now.
0:39:34 > 0:39:38- Um...- Right, I think we should go for one of each...
0:39:38 > 0:39:40- Yeah.- ..cos we stand a better chance of getting an obscure one.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42My most obscure for BBLE
0:39:42 > 0:39:44would be Hubble, the Hubble spacecraft.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46- OK...- What would yours be?
0:39:46 > 0:39:47I'd have said hobble.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50I think Hubble might be a little bit more obscure than hobble.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52Can you name a thing?
0:39:52 > 0:39:53Hubble? Is that a thing?
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Does it have to be a description
0:39:55 > 0:39:57of something you do, as opposed to naming a thing?
0:39:57 > 0:40:00- Or dibble?- I'd say hobble.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03- Rabble.- Do we have to guess within the 60 seconds
0:40:03 > 0:40:04and actually say it?
0:40:04 > 0:40:07- Do we?- Do your thinking in the 60 seconds.
0:40:07 > 0:40:08- Ah, right.- OK.
0:40:08 > 0:40:09- I'd say...- For each one.
0:40:09 > 0:40:10- OK...- OK, you want Hubble...
0:40:10 > 0:40:11Which one out of all those?
0:40:11 > 0:40:14- I'd have said hobble, but if you want Hubble, fine.- Yeah.
0:40:14 > 0:40:17- And then I would say... for the next one...- Yeah?
0:40:17 > 0:40:18I'd say diddle, as in con somebody.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21- Yeah, which is more obscure than fiddle, I suppose.- Yeah.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24- And then we've got...dazzle... - Ten seconds left.
0:40:24 > 0:40:25Or drizzle.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27Yeah, drizzle.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29- Or fizzle.- Fizzle.
0:40:29 > 0:40:30Maybe drizzle.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32Yeah...
0:40:32 > 0:40:34Or...kibble. The top - kibble is food.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36Really weird food, kibble.
0:40:36 > 0:40:37- Yes...- OK, that's your time up.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39What three answers are you going to give me?
0:40:39 > 0:40:40Kibble for the top one?
0:40:40 > 0:40:42- Yeah, I think so.- Kibble.- Kibble.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46- I'm thinking diddle for the middle one.- Yes. Yeah.
0:40:46 > 0:40:48- Diddle, as in con somebody.- Diddle.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50- Mm-hm.- Go on, you pick one for the bottom one.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Let's go with drizzle - it's more foodie.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54- Drizzle.- Drizzle.- We like our food.
0:40:54 > 0:40:55So, we have kibble, we have...
0:40:55 > 0:40:56- Diddle.- ..diddle,
0:40:56 > 0:40:58- and we have drizzle.- Yeah.
0:40:58 > 0:41:01Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:41:01 > 0:41:03- First one, I think.- Kibble.- Kibble.
0:41:03 > 0:41:06- Least likely to be pointless? - Probably...drizzle.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08OK, drizzle goes first, and we put the other one in the middle.
0:41:08 > 0:41:10Diddle and then kibble.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12OK, let's put those up on the board in that order -
0:41:12 > 0:41:13and here they are.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15Very best of luck.
0:41:17 > 0:41:18Three great answers up there.
0:41:19 > 0:41:21If you win that jackpot,
0:41:21 > 0:41:24what will the charities be that you're playing for?
0:41:24 > 0:41:25For me, it will be Children with Cancer,
0:41:25 > 0:41:29which has been my chosen charity since about '87.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32- OK. Carol? - Medecins Sans Frontieres,
0:41:32 > 0:41:35cos they're doing such a stand-up job all around the world.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37Well, they always do, but particularly at the moment,
0:41:37 > 0:41:40with Ebola and everything, or war-torn countries at the moment.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42- They're fantastic. Love 'em. - Well, good for you -
0:41:42 > 0:41:44- two great charities there. - APPLAUSE
0:41:44 > 0:41:47Let us hope that at least one of those answers is pointless
0:41:47 > 0:41:50so you can take that money and share it between those two charities.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52Best of luck, as I said. Drizzle was your first answer -
0:41:52 > 0:41:55the one you thought was least likely to be pointless.
0:41:55 > 0:41:57Only one of them has to be pointless for you to win.
0:41:57 > 0:42:00Let's find out. For £2,500, how many people said drizzle?
0:42:04 > 0:42:05It's right.
0:42:06 > 0:42:09Down it goes, through the 60s.
0:42:09 > 0:42:12If this goes all the way down to zero you will leave here right now
0:42:12 > 0:42:13with £2,500.
0:42:13 > 0:42:1430 for drizzle.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17APPLAUSE
0:42:18 > 0:42:21OK, so, no pointless answer with your first one.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23Your second, though, was diddle.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26Now it's beginning to get a bit more exciting, I think.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29It has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32So, let's find out, for £2,500, how many people said diddle?
0:42:35 > 0:42:36It's right.
0:42:37 > 0:42:40Your first answer, drizzle, took us down to 30.
0:42:40 > 0:42:43Diddle now taking us down through the 30s,
0:42:43 > 0:42:47- passes 30, down through the 20s, 13!- Oh!
0:42:47 > 0:42:48APPLAUSE
0:42:48 > 0:42:52- 13 for diddle.- Obviously a lot of people have been diddled.- Yeah.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54- It's got to be kibble.- OK.
0:42:54 > 0:42:56Only one more shot at today's jackpot.
0:42:56 > 0:42:58But this was a late arrival,
0:42:58 > 0:43:01came in just about two seconds before your time was up.
0:43:01 > 0:43:02But let's see - kibble.
0:43:02 > 0:43:07How many of our 100 people said it? For £2,500, is it pointless?
0:43:10 > 0:43:13It's right. That's the first thing it had to be.
0:43:13 > 0:43:16Your first answer, drizzle, scored 30.
0:43:16 > 0:43:18Your second answer, diddle, scored 13.
0:43:18 > 0:43:22Kibble passes 13, down it goes, single figures, still going down...
0:43:22 > 0:43:25- Down it goes - still going - oh, no! - Oh, no!
0:43:25 > 0:43:28- 2 for kibble.- Can you believe it?!
0:43:28 > 0:43:31God, there's some really annoying people out there!
0:43:32 > 0:43:36I'm so sorry. Unfortunately, two people said kibble.
0:43:36 > 0:43:38- Where are they?- Yeah!
0:43:38 > 0:43:40I'm afraid that means
0:43:40 > 0:43:42you didn't find that all-important pointless answer,
0:43:42 > 0:43:44so you don't win today's jackpot of £2,500.
0:43:44 > 0:43:47However, as this is a celebrity special,
0:43:47 > 0:43:49we are going to donate £500 to each pair
0:43:49 > 0:43:52to split between their respective charities. So there we are.
0:43:52 > 0:43:55APPLAUSE
0:43:55 > 0:43:57We have absolutely loved having you back on the show.
0:43:57 > 0:44:00- It's been a real treat to see you. - Thank you.
0:44:00 > 0:44:02And you get to take home a Pointless trophy each, so there you are.
0:44:02 > 0:44:05APPLAUSE
0:44:05 > 0:44:08Yeah, it's been an absolute joy having you back on.
0:44:08 > 0:44:11There's some lovely words here - I know you don't want to hear them,
0:44:11 > 0:44:12but there are some lovely words on the list.
0:44:12 > 0:44:15Now, diddle was an interesting one, because you both tour a lot,
0:44:15 > 0:44:17and if any of your drummers were with us...
0:44:17 > 0:44:20- BOTH:- Paradiddle. - ..they would have said paradiddle,
0:44:20 > 0:44:22- and they would have won you the money.- Oh!
0:44:22 > 0:44:23It was pointless, paradiddle.
0:44:23 > 0:44:26- I bet you'd have said paradiddle, wouldn't you?- Mm-hm.
0:44:26 > 0:44:27- Yep. I thought so(!)- Of course.
0:44:27 > 0:44:29I thought as much.
0:44:29 > 0:44:32Let's take a look at the pointless answers in the other categories.
0:44:32 > 0:44:33Start with BBLE.
0:44:33 > 0:44:35Knobble, with a K.
0:44:35 > 0:44:37Psychobabble is a pointless answer,
0:44:37 > 0:44:39squabble is a pointless answer,
0:44:39 > 0:44:41very good one if you went for that. Technobabble.
0:44:41 > 0:44:44There's lots that don't sound like they're real words, but they are.
0:44:44 > 0:44:47You could have had drabble, fribble, grabble, gribble or nubble.
0:44:47 > 0:44:48Well done if you got any of those.
0:44:48 > 0:44:51- Aren't they in Camberwick Green? - LAUGHTER
0:44:51 > 0:44:54Hardscrabble, also a word there, would have been a lovely one.
0:44:54 > 0:44:57DDLE - as well as paradiddle you could have had...
0:44:57 > 0:44:59mollycoddle...that's a lovely word.
0:44:59 > 0:45:02Packsaddle, skedaddle or unsaddle.
0:45:02 > 0:45:05All of those terrific answers. Well done if you got those.
0:45:05 > 0:45:07Let's take a look at the ZZLEs.
0:45:07 > 0:45:10Embezzle is a pointless answer, well done if you said that.
0:45:10 > 0:45:12Mozzle, which is an Australian word.
0:45:12 > 0:45:17Shemozzle, which is a state of chaos and confusion, or to unmuzzle.
0:45:17 > 0:45:19Terrific work if you got any of those at home.
0:45:19 > 0:45:20And kibble was a great answer.
0:45:20 > 0:45:22When you look at some of the ones that were pointless -
0:45:22 > 0:45:26- squabble, embezzle, then kibble was unlucky, I think.- Yeah.
0:45:26 > 0:45:27But well done if you got it at home -
0:45:27 > 0:45:30- and thank you for coming back, you've been terrific.- Thank you.
0:45:30 > 0:45:32Thanks very much, Richard.
0:45:32 > 0:45:34Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you,
0:45:34 > 0:45:36but it's been fabulous having you on the show.
0:45:36 > 0:45:38Thank you so much for playing. Paul and Carol.
0:45:38 > 0:45:40APPLAUSE
0:45:40 > 0:45:42- Well done, darling. - Join us next time,
0:45:42 > 0:45:45when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:45:45 > 0:45:47- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:45:47 > 0:45:49..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:45:49 > 0:45:52But first, playing us out with their new single,
0:45:52 > 0:45:53it's Paul Heaton and Jacqui Abbott.
