0:00:48 > 0:00:52No, I am Ronni Ancona, as opposed to Corbett, who is smaller,
0:00:52 > 0:00:55but would have reached the podium, I'd just like to say.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00And couple number two.

0:01:53 > 0:01:54Hello. I'm Sara Pasco.
0:01:54 > 0:01:59I'm a comedian and actual Essex girl and Pointless fan.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00Hey!
0:02:03 > 0:02:08I'm Josh Widdicombe. I'm a comedian, a Devon boy and a Pointless fan.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12Yay! Thank you. These are today's contestants.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Thanks, all of you. We will get to know more about you
0:02:14 > 0:02:16throughout the show as it goes along.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Six foot seven and legs up to heaven,
0:02:21 > 0:02:24it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Hiya. Hi, everybody.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28Hello.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32- Good evening.- Good evening to you. - How are you?- I'm very well.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34That's a lovely introduction.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36- Very excited about this.- Are you? - Yeah!
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Well, we've got a few people who've been on the show before,
0:02:39 > 0:02:41but they've all swapped partners.
0:02:41 > 0:02:42All of them. Linda and Lesley especially.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46Linda came on with Jenny Eclair and Lesley came on with Biggins.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49- I did.- Both got knocked out in the first round.- Thank you!- We did.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51But I think now, I think you both traded up.
0:02:51 > 0:02:52And you're back where you should be
0:02:52 > 0:02:55- with The Birds Of A Feather team-mate.- Quite right, too.- Yeah.
0:02:55 > 0:02:56Su Pollard also traded.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Came on with Jeffrey Holland last time now with Ruth Madoc.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Fabulous! Let's hope we fare a little bit better this time.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03- Oh, yes. - Were you out first as well?- Yes.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05They... She was indeed. Yeah.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08We went right... The X went right to 100 immediatemoi.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11So, I'm hoping that it doesn't go there straightaway.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15- Oh... 'immediatemoi'.- Yeah!
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Podium one, though, Phil has traded as well,
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- but Phil actually got through to the final last time.- Yeah.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22CONTESTANTS OOH AND AAH
0:03:22 > 0:03:25- I was close. I don't want to put any pressure...on Ronni.- I know.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28As he keeps on reminding me. Because with Meera Syal...
0:03:28 > 0:03:29- she was so good.- Meera was great.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33- Meera Syal was terrific, wasn't she? - She was brilliant.
0:03:33 > 0:03:34- She's so funny as well.- Yeah.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42But we've got two...two first-timers on podium four.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44The youngsters up there, Josh and Sara.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- They've got to be favourites, surely. - Surely.- What! Why?
0:03:47 > 0:03:51All I'm saying is you'd be gutted if you were Josh and Sara and you lost.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- That's all I'm saying.- This is unbelievable!- It would be.
0:03:54 > 0:03:59- What's with all of these mind games! - This is like an anxiety dream.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02Guys, just come on. Let's play Pointless, shall we?
0:04:02 > 0:04:03Well... That's...
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Now, every question on Pointless has been asked
0:04:06 > 0:04:07to 100 people before the show.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Today's contestants are, of course, looking for a Pointless answer.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12That being one that none of our 100 people gave.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Find one of those and we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Now, as today's show is a celebrity special
0:04:17 > 0:04:19and each of our wonderful celebrities
0:04:19 > 0:04:20is playing for a nominated charity,
0:04:20 > 0:04:23we start off with a jackpot of £2,500.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Right. If everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Now all you have to remember is that the pair with the highest score
0:04:36 > 0:04:37at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40So, do everything you can to make sure it's not you.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43It's as simple as that. Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Our first category today is...
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Wildlife. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:04:51 > 0:04:53who's going to go second?
0:04:53 > 0:04:55And whoever's going first, please, step up to the podium.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01OK and the question concerns...
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Ooh!
0:05:06 > 0:05:07Birds. Richard.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09- It's nice, isn't it? A nice gentle start.- Yes.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11On each board, we're going to show you seven clues
0:05:11 > 0:05:13the answers to each one of which is a type of bird.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15You need to tell us which type of bird, please.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18There's going to be seven on each pass, 14 in all to have a go at home.
0:05:18 > 0:05:19Best of luck.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21OK. Let's reveal our birds.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23We're looking for the birds described by these clues
0:05:23 > 0:05:27and here are those seven clues on the first board.
0:05:29 > 0:05:30HE READS CLUES
0:05:51 > 0:05:53I'll read those all one last time.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14There we go. Phil, welcome back to Pointless.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18- Hello, mate.- Now, then, A finalist last time.- Yeah.- A finalist.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21So, you got a trophy. Where is your trophy right now?
0:06:21 > 0:06:22- Erm...- Come on.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25I...I...I... It's on the mantelpiece, mate.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28The bathroom shelf is not a mantelpiece, Phil.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32Now, Phil, how's that board?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Are you happy with the birds we've given you?
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Erm... Yeah.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Two I'd say I don't know.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40Probably.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42- What are you going to go for?- Erm...
0:06:42 > 0:06:44And I've got to say the bird, yeah?
0:06:44 > 0:06:49- Yes.- Golden eagle...is the national bird of the United States.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53- The United States, the golden eagle? - Yeah.- OK. The golden eagle.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Let's see if that's right and if it is, what do you think, Ronni?
0:06:56 > 0:06:58I think it might score a bit high.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00This is not going to be like last time
0:07:00 > 0:07:02when I got a pointless answer first go off. It just...
0:07:02 > 0:07:04This ain't going to happen. It's not going to happen.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Let's find out. The golden eagle, is that the species of bird
0:07:07 > 0:07:10that is the national bird of the United States? The golden eagle.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Great.
0:07:13 > 0:07:18- Oh! Now, we're in big trouble.- Ooh!
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Oh, Phil, I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24It scores you the maximum of 100 points.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27Doing so well, so early.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Well, at least you're right it's not going to be like last time
0:07:29 > 0:07:32when you got that pointless answer straight off.
0:07:32 > 0:07:33Yeah, I am bang on there. Yeah.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Ronni, it's going to be tough on the second pass, I think,
0:07:35 > 0:07:38but you've made everyone else very relieved, Phil.
0:07:38 > 0:07:39That's the good news.
0:07:39 > 0:07:40OTHERS AGREE
0:07:40 > 0:07:41I'm here to help.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44OK, now. Ruth, welcome to the show.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Wonderful to have you here.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Lovely to see you and Su together.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50I know. It's great, isn't it?
0:07:50 > 0:07:52And it's great that we still see each other
0:07:52 > 0:07:54and we always phone each other up and it's just all lovely
0:07:54 > 0:07:55cos sometimes you think,
0:07:55 > 0:07:59"Ooh. Can't wait to not to... Never see her again or him again."
0:07:59 > 0:08:01- We never said that, have we, babe? - No.- So, we're all right.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- Great friends.- Have you kept in touch all the way through
0:08:04 > 0:08:06- since Hi-de-Hi?- All the way through.- Yes.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Yes, we knew what was happening in each other's families
0:08:08 > 0:08:10and we've always done it, though.
0:08:10 > 0:08:15Ruth, what are you going to go for on this board?
0:08:15 > 0:08:19I'm going to go for 'this bird appeared on the reverse
0:08:19 > 0:08:23'side of the Farthing coin from 1937.' I think it was a wren.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27"A wren," says Ruth. Ooh, Sara likes that.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29- I'm impressed.- A wren. Let's see if that's right.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31If it is, how many people said 'wren'?
0:08:35 > 0:08:37It's absolutely right, Ruth.
0:08:37 > 0:08:3810.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43CHEERING
0:08:43 > 0:08:46That's a great score, Ruth. Very well done indeed. 10 for wren.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49That's a terrific answer, Ruth.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Very well played. Very good start to your round.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54- The wren is the UK's most common bird.- Are they really?
0:08:54 > 0:08:56- Are they common, wrens?- Yeah, wrens, yeah.- I didn't know that.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- There's loads of them.- Oh, I'll stop being so pleased when I see one.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01I keep thinking they're really special.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05- There's about 8.5 million breeding pairs.- Get out!- Breeding pairs.
0:09:05 > 0:09:06- Really? Breeding pairs.- Yeah.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09The smallest birds in the British Isles, aren't they?
0:09:09 > 0:09:10Oh, we better not answer that
0:09:10 > 0:09:12because there might be one on the next board.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15- Yeah, there might be. Let's not talk about...- No, there's smaller ones.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17- They are small, aren't they?- There's the 'micro bird'.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- That's the smallest.- Oh, is it? - They are tiny.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22You can't see them. There's one.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25LAUGHTER
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Thanks very much, indeed. Now, Linda, welcome.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31- Oh, dear.- Welcome back.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Yes, last time with Jenny Eclair.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Round One, what was going on there?
0:09:36 > 0:09:38I think it was a sports question, football. Not my fault, eh, love.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41Oh, yes. That was it. Fair enough.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Now, Birds Of A Feather, congratulations.
0:09:44 > 0:09:49- Back on ITV this time.- Yeah. - Fabulous. Massive, soar-away hit.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52Very exciting. 15 years after the last series.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54- I think it's 16 years actually, Lesley.- Oh, is it?
0:09:54 > 0:09:56ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:09:56 > 0:09:59- Wow.- She wants to knock a few years off.
0:09:59 > 0:10:04- Very good. Now, Linda, so here we are.- I know.- A whole board of birds.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08Well, I think I know two out of all of that lot.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10So, I'm going to go for... I'm going to go...
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Should I go for the partridge in a pear tree? Just to be safe.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16OK. Partridge, you're going to say. Let's see if 'partridge' is right.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19Let's see how many of our 100 people said 'partridge'.
0:10:22 > 0:10:23It's right.
0:10:23 > 0:10:2578.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28- That's not bad. I was going to say...- Not bad at all.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31- 78 for partridge.- Yeah, better safe than sorry,
0:10:31 > 0:10:33especially as Phil's already scored 100,
0:10:33 > 0:10:35- but that's lower than you would expect.- Yeah.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37I don't know what 22 other people were thinking.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Yeah, I was thinking... I was ready for it to be high.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41But there we are. It's good. Thank you, Richard.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Josh, welcome to the show. Great to have you here.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46- It's a pleasure being here. - I think...
0:10:46 > 0:10:49being a sta... Actually, not just being a stand-up,
0:10:49 > 0:10:52but being a stand-up who does a radio show, you've got it all.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55You've got...you've got... You're keeping abreast of everything.
0:10:55 > 0:10:56You're topical.
0:10:56 > 0:11:01Yeah, oh, yeah, I know a lot about things I've got no interest in now.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05- Hmm.- Which would be perfectly useful on the show, but very rarely...
0:11:05 > 0:11:09on the news does the bird sometimes known as 'sea parrot' come up.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11LAUGHTER
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Well. Tell me you know the answer to that, Josh.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16I don't know the answer to that.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18- Do you want me to...- Do you want to talk us through the board?
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- Do you want me to talk you through the board?- Yeah, do that.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Oh, I never thought I'd get to say that in my life.
0:11:24 > 0:11:29The six species, I think, a flamingo might be one of them.
0:11:29 > 0:11:33Yeah? Sea parrot''... Nope. Erm...
0:11:33 > 0:11:37Dodo for Alice's Adventures In Wonderland, perhaps.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39I'll go with flamingo.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42"Flamingo," says Josh for 'the tall, pink, wading birds'.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Let's see if that's right.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48Let's see how many of our 100 people said 'flamingo'.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49It's absolutely right.
0:11:49 > 0:11:5057.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Just go with the safe one and we should be fine.
0:11:55 > 0:11:5757 for flamingo. Richard?
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Well played, Josh. Safe answer. Did exactly what you needed to do there.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Let's take a look through the rest of these answers.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Erm... Were you going to go for the extinct bird?
0:12:05 > 0:12:08- Yeah, that was the other one, but... - So, you'd have gone for?
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Dodo on Alice In Wonderland.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Yeah, it would have been a slightly better answer.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15It's right, but would have scored you...
0:12:15 > 0:12:1751 points. Not much better.
0:12:17 > 0:12:18But a better answer.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22The species of eagle is the bald eagle that would score you 29 points.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26The largest living species, if you had to guess?
0:12:26 > 0:12:28- Vulture.- Not vulture.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30- Ostrich.- Ostrich.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33Ostrich is the right answer, but not all at once. Just one at a time.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Put your hands up.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38- Ostrich.- Phil, ostrich, correct. 43 points.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41The bird that is sometimes known as the sea parrot, do you know that?
0:12:41 > 0:12:42- Puffin.- Puffin.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45- Puffin is the right answer.- Good. - Who said puffin?- Fabulous.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Was that you, Ruth?
0:12:47 > 0:12:49That would've scored 17 points.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51So, Ruth, you just gave us the best two answers
0:12:51 > 0:12:53on the board in that round. Very well done.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Thank you very much, indeed, Richard.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Well, thank you very much. We're halfway through the round.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Let's take a look at those scores. Very well done, Ruth.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07You put you and Su right at the top of the grid there.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Then up to 57 where we find Josh and Sara.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Then up to 78 where we find Linda and Lesley.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Then, you're not that far ahead actually, Phil and Ronni.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17- 100, you're only 22 ahead. - Bless your heart.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Listen, Ronni, we depend on you, Phil, rather, depends on you,
0:13:20 > 0:13:23but anything could happen on our way back down the line.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Very, very best of luck. This is going to be exciting.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27We're going to head back down the line now.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Could the second players, please, step up to the podium?
0:13:32 > 0:13:34OK. We're going to put seven more clues up on the board
0:13:34 > 0:13:37and here they come. We have got...
0:14:01 > 0:14:03I'll read them all one last time
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Now, remember we are looking for the birds described by these clues.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28And Sara, you're going to try to find the one you think
0:14:28 > 0:14:30the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33- And listen, Sara, welcome.- Hello. - Good to have you here. Now you...
0:14:33 > 0:14:36- Yes.- You're a writer. You're an actor.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39- You are a stand-up comic.- Yeah. - And a singer-songwriter.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42- I wouldn't say singer-songwriter. - Really?- No.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45- I once did a show with some songs in it.- Yeah, exactly. You're musical.
0:14:45 > 0:14:46But Gary Barlow would be annoyed
0:14:46 > 0:14:49if everyone is just calling themselves a singer-songwriter.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51But if you had to pick one of those...
0:14:51 > 0:14:54- Oh, to do for my only job?- Yeah. What would you do?
0:14:54 > 0:14:58- Stand up comedy.- Stand up comedy. OK. Now, you are on 57.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00The high score at this stage is Ronni and Phil on 100.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02So, 42 or less.
0:15:02 > 0:15:06Yes. So, playing it safe,
0:15:06 > 0:15:08I think, I'm going to go for number four.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11The bird found in New Zealand that has a type of fruit named
0:15:11 > 0:15:12after it is a kiwi.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14"Kiwi," says Sara. Let's see if 'kiwi' is right.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Let's see how many people said 'kiwi'.
0:15:16 > 0:15:17There's your red line.
0:15:19 > 0:15:20It's right.
0:15:22 > 0:15:2356.
0:15:26 > 0:15:2856 takes your total up to 113.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Yeah, that should see you safe, Sara, I would have thought.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34A good answer. Named after the cry of the bird.
0:15:34 > 0:15:35It sounds a bit like kiwi.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37- Is that really why it's called a kiwi?- Yeah.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Wow... Thank you.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Now, Lesley. Now, Lesley. Biggins... What went on with Biggins?
0:15:42 > 0:15:44I'll tell you what went on.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48We had to do a country that didn't repeat a letter
0:15:48 > 0:15:51and he said 'Italy', which is absolutely right,
0:15:51 > 0:15:54but, of course, it's one of the most well-known countries.
0:15:54 > 0:15:55It's one of the well-known ones.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57- I think Peggy Smith got 'Mali'. M-A-L-I.- Oh.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59- I think she won it, actually.- Yeah. - So...
0:15:59 > 0:16:03- You don't know countries, do you, Les?- No, not much.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06Biggins. Lesley you have not only been on Pointless before,
0:16:06 > 0:16:08you've been an answer on Pointless.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10- Have I?- Yeah. Yeah.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12What, Lesley Joseph or Birds Of A Feather?
0:16:12 > 0:16:14No, well, Dorien Green, but, yes.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Oh, Dorien Green, well, same thing, really.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Well, much the same thing. So, yes, back to Birds Of A Feather.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21You've got the same directors and things like that? It's all...
0:16:21 > 0:16:23- It's all...- Oh, no, we haven't got the same directors.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27We've got the same writers and we have two different directors,
0:16:27 > 0:16:30eight episodes and we're going again.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33Whoo! So exciting and it's just been phenomenal.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35We've just had the best time, I can't tell you.
0:16:35 > 0:16:36Well done, you. Brilliant.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40Well, richly, richly deserved success. You're on 78 at the moment.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43113 is a high score, so 34 or less...
0:16:44 > 0:16:46..gets you through.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48OK. I'm going to take a bit of a chance.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Well done. Let's not remember Italy, Lesley.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53With the composer Vaughan Williams. And I'm going to say lark.
0:16:53 > 0:16:59The lark. The lark. Well, let's see how far the lark descends for you.
0:16:59 > 0:17:00There is the red line.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07Go on!
0:17:07 > 0:17:09We've done it! Very well done, indeed.
0:17:09 > 0:17:10Wow, seven!
0:17:11 > 0:17:13Seven!
0:17:13 > 0:17:15- Well done.- 85...
0:17:17 > 0:17:20- ..is your total. Very well done. - That's a very good answer, Lesley.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22Very well played and both of you through to round two.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24- So, as soon as...- Already?- Yeah!
0:17:24 > 0:17:25You and me through to round two?
0:17:25 > 0:17:28- Can you even believe it?- No.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- Yeah, written in 1914.- That's cos you got rid of Biggins.- 1914.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- 1914. Not performed till 1921. - Thank you.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38Now...now, Su, Su, I have great news for you.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40This is such a lovely thing to be able to tell you.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42You are in Round Two. You're in Round Two.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44I mean, not now, this is still Round One.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47But you will be there even if you score 100 points,
0:17:47 > 0:17:48which I know you won't anyhow.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51I'm sorry, I can't really take a chance like Lesley.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53I think that was a fantastic...
0:17:53 > 0:17:55It was a really great score, darling,
0:17:55 > 0:17:58but I'm actually going to go for something fairly safe
0:17:58 > 0:18:02just in case I get a chance of it being absolutely correct.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04I'm going to go with...
0:18:05 > 0:18:09..in folklore this bird is said to deliver babies.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11- I'm going to go with stork. - "Stork," says Su.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13No red line for you as you're already through,
0:18:13 > 0:18:16but let's see how many of our 100 people said stork.
0:18:18 > 0:18:19It's right.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- 61.- That's all right.- That's all right?
0:18:24 > 0:18:2671 is your total.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Safely through as well, Su. Very well played. Yeah, the stork.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Makes no noise, the stork.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35It's got the word 'tork' in its name and it can't talk...
0:18:35 > 0:18:36AUDIENCE CHUCKLES
0:18:36 > 0:18:39- That seems a shame.- That is, yeah, you're right.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41- It seems ironic.- Yeah. Yeah.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44- All right. Now, Ronni, Ronni. - Yes, darling.- Now, welcome.
0:18:44 > 0:18:45- Lovely to have you here.- Thank you.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47You've been standing there so patiently all the way
0:18:47 > 0:18:49through the round.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Oh, it's difficult when it comes back the other way, isn't it?
0:18:52 > 0:18:55It is. And also we're at the end. Yeah, you've got...
0:18:55 > 0:18:56You have a job to do here.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59You...you used to be an art teacher.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01- Is that true?- Yes, I did, actually.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04- Years and years ago.- Years and years ago.- At a boys' school?
0:19:04 > 0:19:05- Tough job, actually.- Yeah, I bet!
0:19:05 > 0:19:08Do you still do art? Is art still a thing of yours?
0:19:08 > 0:19:11I don't really do much painting, which I feel quite sad about.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13It's like I've sort of fallen out with my best friend.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16But I was a commercial painter as well for film and television
0:19:16 > 0:19:18- and scene painting.- Brilliant!
0:19:18 > 0:19:21- So, it's something that I... Very, very useful, isn't it?- Yeah, very.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24- At a soiree.- Yeah.- Let me get my paintbrush out.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28- Now, Ronni.- Yes.- 113 the high score, Sara and Josh.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31You're on 100. You have to score 12 or... What?!
0:19:31 > 0:19:33- You have to score 12 or less.- You serious?
0:19:33 > 0:19:36- I know. I know. I know.- It's a big ask.- 12!
0:19:36 > 0:19:39- I know! Or less.- Or we're out? - Or that's it.
0:19:39 > 0:19:40Do some thinking...aloud for us.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Do some thinking aloud.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45Bottom one, I'm thinking that's...
0:19:45 > 0:19:49I think that roadrunner, but I could have got that totally wrong.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53Traditional type of clock named after... That's cuckoo.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57Name of the band forms the title of the 1968 hit by Fleetwood Mac,
0:19:57 > 0:19:59that's albatross.
0:19:59 > 0:20:03This bird has species including a mute and bewicks...
0:20:03 > 0:20:06I think that's thrush, but that could be totally wrong as well.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09But I'm going to go for albatross. 1968.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Fleetwood Mac hit. Let's see if that's right
0:20:12 > 0:20:14and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16You got to get below that red line
0:20:16 > 0:20:18otherwise, I'm afraid, we have to say goodbye.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Let's find out how many people albatross.
0:20:22 > 0:20:23It's right.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Still going. Still going. Oh, no! 22...
0:20:31 > 0:20:32Oh, Ronni.
0:20:33 > 0:20:3622. Valiant.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Valiant attempt there and I can tell you 22,
0:20:38 > 0:20:42it is the third lowest-scoring answer of the whole round.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44But, I'm afraid, your total is 122. I'm sorry, Ronni.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46RONNI SIGHS That's really unfortunate, Ronni.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Took us through the board very nicely there.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51You got lots of the answers right. None of them would've seen you
0:20:51 > 0:20:53through to the next round after Phil's...
0:20:53 > 0:20:54- Appalling.- ..performance.
0:20:54 > 0:20:58- Can we just say that again, "After Phil's..."- Yeah.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Let's take a look at the rest of these.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02You're right, Ronni, about the cartoon bird is Roadrunner.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Oh, why didn't I pick that one?
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Cos it would have scored you even more points.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10It would have scored you 35. You're right about the cuckoo as well.
0:21:10 > 0:21:15Cuckoo would have scored you 45.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17I was going to say gannett instead of thrush.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20And the bird at the top including mutes and bewicks, do you know that?
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- Swan.- It's a Swan. Yeah. It would have scored 19.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25So, the best answer on the board, Lesley, was lark.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27So, very well played.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Thank you very much, indeed.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33So, at the end of our first round, the pair who are heading home
0:21:33 > 0:21:38with a high score of 122, I'm so sorry, Ronni and Phil.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Come back. Come back again. Come back again.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Phil, you need another trophy and Ronni you need a trophy
0:21:43 > 0:21:45- and to win some money for your charity.- I need a trophy.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Ronni and Phil. Wonderful contestants.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58So, three pairs remain.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00Obviously, at the end of this round,
0:22:00 > 0:22:02we'll have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06Well, what a revealing first round that was. We saw off our favourites.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08And our other joint favourites. Let's...let's call them that.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Josh and Sara, the high scorers.
0:22:11 > 0:22:12Very close.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15I lost about two years of my life as that thing was going down.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18- Still having palpitations. - It's unbelievable.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20So, well done all three pairs.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23This is going to be a riveting second round. Best of luck.
0:22:23 > 0:22:24The category for it is...
0:22:27 > 0:22:28CONTESTANTS MOAN AND GROAN
0:22:28 > 0:22:31US comedy. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:22:31 > 0:22:33who's going to go second?
0:22:33 > 0:22:36And whoever's going first, please, step up to the podium.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42OK and the question concerns...
0:22:43 > 0:22:45..film comedy stars of the 1980s.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48- CONTESTANTS COMPLAIN - Oh, what?- Huh?
0:22:48 > 0:22:49- Richard?- In a moment, I'm going to show you
0:22:49 > 0:22:52the names of four comedy actors. We're looking for any film
0:22:52 > 0:22:55starring any of those people that was released in the 1980s, please.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58So, any film for which the following four people received
0:22:58 > 0:23:01an acting credit that was released in the 1980s.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04As always, no short films, TV films, documentaries,
0:23:04 > 0:23:06anything like that, but voice performances do count.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Very, very best of luck to all teams.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10OK. So, as Richard said, we're going to put four names up
0:23:10 > 0:23:13on the board. They are going to stay up the whole way through the round.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15We're not going to change them halfway.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17They're going to be all the way up, all the way back down again.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20They stay up there and we want any film starring any of those people
0:23:20 > 0:23:24made in the 1980s. Best of luck. Here are those four names.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30HE READS NAMES
0:23:32 > 0:23:36HE REPEATS NAMES
0:23:36 > 0:23:39- Now, Su.- Do you know I'm really, really sorry,
0:23:39 > 0:23:40but I can't think of any movie.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44You're going to have to make one up. Any answer.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46I'm...I'm going to make one up. Erm...
0:23:48 > 0:23:50Beverly Hills Cop!
0:23:50 > 0:23:52That's a brilliant idea for a film.
0:23:52 > 0:23:55Beverly Hills Cop. Let's see if that's right.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58Let's see how many of our 100 people said Beverly Hills Cop.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03It's right.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05It just suddenly came to me.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08- 31! - SHE SHOUTS TRIUMPHANTLY
0:24:09 > 0:24:1131!
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Well done. 31 minutes.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17It's worse than having a baby, girls.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20- How would you know?- Well, I've never had one, but I'm sure it is.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25Yes, starring Eddie Murphy from 1984 Beverly Hills Cop.
0:24:25 > 0:24:26That role, he played Axel Foley.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28That role was turned down by Mickey Rourke.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30- Wow.- That would be a very different film, wouldn't it?
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Yeah, wouldn't it? Mickey Rourke. Extraordinary.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35Anyway, thank you very much, indeed, Richard.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Lesley, we come to you.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41I have seriously not a clue. Not...
0:24:41 > 0:24:44I'm worse than she is and she got it right.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47I'll say The Mask and I know it's not right.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49- OK. Lesley is saying The Mask. - But... I don't know.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51How many people said it?
0:24:51 > 0:24:53I know that it's wrong. It's not right.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57No. I'm sorry, Lesley. An incorrect answer there,
0:24:57 > 0:24:59which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:24:59 > 0:25:00Yeah, no. I have not a clue.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Yeah, sorry, Lesley. It is a comedy film, but from 1994, I'm afraid,
0:25:03 > 0:25:05- and not starring any of those. - I never watched them,
0:25:05 > 0:25:07so I have not a clue. Like sport.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09You know what, you're not missing anything.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11LAUGHTER
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Thanks very much, indeed, Richard.
0:25:14 > 0:25:15Now, Josh. Josh.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18I'm going to go with...
0:25:18 > 0:25:20Trading Places.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23"Trading Places," says Josh. Let's see if that's right.
0:25:23 > 0:25:27If it is, let's see how many people said Trading Places.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30It is, of course, absolutely right. 100 is our high score, 31 our low.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Trading Places passes both of them. Look at that!
0:25:33 > 0:25:3411. Very well done, indeed, Josh.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Great answer. Best score so far.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42Also, one of my all-time favourite films.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44A brilliant film, yeah. Great answer, Josh. Great film.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd, Denholm Elliott is in it. Yeah.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50- It's brilliant.- Thanks very much. We're halfway through the round.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52Let's take a look at those scores. 11, Josh.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55Josh and Sara looking very, very strong at this stage of the game.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Surely through to the head-to-head after a performance like that.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Then up to 31 where you find Su and Ruth. Ditto.
0:26:00 > 0:26:01Looking pretty good.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04Then, I'm afraid, it's 100 where we find Lesley and Linda.
0:26:04 > 0:26:05I'm sorry, Lesley. Not your round.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07I can't help it. I just don't watch those movies.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09- Don't worry. Don't worry. - Not a clue.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11Well, Linda, if you have a good answer,
0:26:11 > 0:26:12it might be enough to keep you in the game.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Best of luck. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Can the second players, please, step up to the podium?
0:26:18 > 0:26:20- Now then, Sara.- Yes.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23Sara, remember we are looking for the title of any film
0:26:23 > 0:26:26released during the 1980s, which starred any of these four actors.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29- Yes.- Yes.- So, I know a few films,
0:26:29 > 0:26:32but the one I think is the earliest is Coming To America.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35"Coming To America," says Sara. Another great film.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Get below that red line, you're through to the head-to-head.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42Let's see Coming To America, how many people said that?
0:26:42 > 0:26:45Well done, you're through.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51Very good, indeed. Nine!
0:26:51 > 0:26:53Takes your total up to a nice, neat 20.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Well done.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Very well played, Sara. Yeah, from 1988 Coming To America.
0:27:00 > 0:27:01Another Eddie Murphy film.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04It's one of the first films where he played more than one character.
0:27:04 > 0:27:05- Oh, yeah.- Which became one of his staples.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08And Samuel L Jackson was in it as a very small part in the McDonald's.
0:27:08 > 0:27:13He unscrews a mop and fights him. I've seen it 100 times.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15- I didn't know this.- See? It's interesting
0:27:15 > 0:27:18how you two are getting slightly cockier now, now you're through.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21You've lost that kind of shy, nervousness a little bit.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24We're still nervous. We're still nervous.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Thanks very much, indeed. Now, then.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- Linda.- Oh, dear.- Linda.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34I'm not sure, but I think Steve Guttenberg was in Splash.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36Splash. Splash. Ooh... Sara and Josh.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39I don't know if it was Tom Hanks or Steve Guttenberg.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41- I'm afraid, we have to take your first answer.- OK, love.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44- I'm sorry, Linda.- That's OK.- So, you're going to go with Splash.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46No red line for you. You're the high scorers.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49But let's see how many of our 100 people said Splash.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54No, I'm sorry. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:27:54 > 0:27:58Scores you the maximum of 100 points. Takes your total up to 200.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01- Oh, yeah, you're right. It was Tom Hanks.- It was Tom Hanks.
0:28:01 > 0:28:06Yeah, but from 1984, so smack bang in the middle of when we wanted it.
0:28:06 > 0:28:11- Now, Ruth. Ruth, you're through. - Yes.- You are in the head-to-head.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14- It's all good.- Yeah.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17Now, I don't look at many films. I'm like, you know, Lesley.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20But there is one I remember,
0:28:20 > 0:28:23but I don't know if any of those stars was in it.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25And that is Blazing Saddles.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29- Blazing Saddles.- And I don't know if it is the '80s.
0:28:29 > 0:28:32OK, but it's a film.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34- It's a film you remember.- Yes.- OK.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36That is a film I remember.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38OK, well, listen. Great news, no red line for you
0:28:38 > 0:28:41cos you're already through. So, let's find out Blazing Saddles.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Is that right and if it is, how many people said it?
0:28:45 > 0:28:48- Ooh!- Sorry, Su, sorry. - That doesn't matter though, Ruth.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50It scores you 100 points takes you to a total of 131,
0:28:50 > 0:28:52but you are already through.
0:28:52 > 0:28:53- Yes.- Couldn't matter less.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56Although Richard Pryor did actually co-write Blazing Saddles.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59- Wow.- Let's take a look at the pointless answers.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01HE READS
0:29:04 > 0:29:06Funnily enough, Beverly Hills Cop II would have been
0:29:06 > 0:29:08a very good answer after Su said Beverly Hills Cop.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10It would have scored 11 points.
0:29:10 > 0:29:11Cocoon: The Return, Steve Guttenberg,
0:29:11 > 0:29:14Deal of the century, Oh! Heavenly Dog.
0:29:14 > 0:29:18A few others here. Sesame Street Presents: Follow That Bird.
0:29:18 > 0:29:23- Of course.- Great film! Great film. - Terrific.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25Surrender and The Man Who Wasn't There.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28I'll give you some low scores for some of the people.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30Fletch Lives would have scored you two for Chevy Chase,
0:29:30 > 0:29:34National Lampoon's European Vacation would have scored you three.
0:29:34 > 0:29:36Steve Guttenberg all of The Police Academy movies
0:29:36 > 0:29:38- up to number four are there. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41So, at the end of our second round, the pair heading home
0:29:41 > 0:29:44with a high score of 200, I'm afraid, is Linda and Lesley.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46Lovely having you both back on the show
0:29:46 > 0:29:48and I'm sorry we are saying goodbye to you so soon.
0:29:48 > 0:29:50You'll just have to come back another time.
0:29:50 > 0:29:53- We will.- Well, we did better than the last time.- You did.
0:29:53 > 0:29:54- You did twice as well.- Yeah.
0:29:54 > 0:30:00Twice as well. Keep that up, three times from now you'll be...
0:30:00 > 0:30:02you'll be through to the final. No, lovely to have you on.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05Thank you so much. Linda and Lesley, everyone. Fabulous.
0:30:09 > 0:30:10Well, for Josh and Sara and Su and Ruth,
0:30:10 > 0:30:12it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:30:16 > 0:30:17Congratulations, Josh and Sara,
0:30:17 > 0:30:20Su and Ruth, you are now one step closer to the final
0:30:20 > 0:30:22and the chance to play for our jackpot
0:30:22 > 0:30:25which currently stands at £2,500.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31So this is the bit where we decide who plays for that money,
0:30:31 > 0:30:33and to do that, you're now going to go head-to-head.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35The big difference is you're now allowed to confer
0:30:35 > 0:30:36before you give your answers.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that money.
0:30:39 > 0:30:43Oh, Josh and Sara, well, it was touch and go there in Round One.
0:30:43 > 0:30:44Very close. It was too close.
0:30:44 > 0:30:48But then you calmed down a bit and we had nice, low scores.
0:30:48 > 0:30:49We were very nervous at the start.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52Su and Ruth, though, wonderful.
0:30:52 > 0:30:55Wonderful play, and actually Blazing Saddles, although it was wrong,
0:30:55 > 0:30:57was wrong for the right sort of reasons. It was a good wrong.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00- We like good wrong answers. - Thank you.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02But wren in the first round, very good. But the point is
0:31:02 > 0:31:05you can put your heads together now so anything can happen.
0:31:05 > 0:31:07All the best bits could be combined. Best of luck to both pairs.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09Let's play the head-to-head.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:31:21 > 0:31:23Sports Figures When They Were Young.
0:31:23 > 0:31:24Richard.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26We're going to show you five pictures now of sports people
0:31:26 > 0:31:27when they were young.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30You just have to identify them and give us the most obscure. Good luck.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33OK, let's reveal our five sports figures. And here they come.
0:31:33 > 0:31:34We have got...
0:31:37 > 0:31:38Aw, this is going to be impossible.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01OK, there we are. Five sports figures.
0:32:01 > 0:32:03Now, Josh and Sara, you've played best throughout the show
0:32:03 > 0:32:04so you will go first.
0:32:04 > 0:32:07In terms of definite, I don't know any of them definitely.
0:32:07 > 0:32:08I know one of them definitely.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10I think we should go for the one we know definitely
0:32:10 > 0:32:12rather than guessing.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15Just give me your answer. What was the E?
0:32:15 > 0:32:18THEY MUMBLE
0:32:18 > 0:32:21- Um, B.- B.- OK.
0:32:21 > 0:32:22Andy Murray.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24B, Andy Murray, say Josh and Sara.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26B, Andy Murray.
0:32:26 > 0:32:29Now, Su and Ruth, do you want to talk us through
0:32:29 > 0:32:31the rest of the board? Fill in any blanks?
0:32:31 > 0:32:32Do some thinking out loud?
0:32:32 > 0:32:36Yes, you see, Ruthie just came up with what I think
0:32:36 > 0:32:38is a really good number C, actually,
0:32:38 > 0:32:42cos if you see the features now...
0:32:42 > 0:32:48It's seeming... They really fit now because he's a handsome guy.
0:32:48 > 0:32:50And that's a handsome baby there.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53It's Cassius Clay, Muhammad Ali.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56- OK, is that the one you want to go for?- Yes, please.
0:32:56 > 0:33:00OK, you're going to say C, Cassius Clay, Muhammad Ali.
0:33:00 > 0:33:04Now then, Josh and Sara said that Andy Murray was B.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06Andy Murray.
0:33:06 > 0:33:07Let's see if that's right.
0:33:07 > 0:33:09If it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:33:11 > 0:33:12It is.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15All right, at least that's fine.
0:33:15 > 0:33:17OK, not bad, not bad. Still going.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19- 28.- That's not bad.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26Do you see that? You think that looks like him?
0:33:26 > 0:33:28I thought it was obvious because look at his...shrug.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31- You know, that kind of... - Yeah.- But, you know, he's...
0:33:31 > 0:33:34It's obvious because he's holding a tennis racket, but I don't...
0:33:34 > 0:33:38- That was a clue. - Certainly the hair.- And fashion.
0:33:38 > 0:33:43OK, now, meanwhile, Su and Ruth have said that C is Muhammad Ali.
0:33:43 > 0:33:44Let's see if that's right,
0:33:44 > 0:33:47and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Muhammad Ali.
0:33:49 > 0:33:50It's right.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55It's got to beat 28. Oh, 42.
0:33:55 > 0:33:56Well done.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02Very well done. Josh and Sara, after one question you're up 1-0.
0:34:02 > 0:34:03- Good work.- Yeah, well played.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06Let's play a little guessing game with the other three.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08- Should we start with E?- Well... - Who do we think E would be?
0:34:08 > 0:34:10I thought it was Sally Gunnell.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13But then I looked at the shirt and it said Bedford
0:34:13 > 0:34:17and Sally Gunnell is from Essex, so I ruled her out.
0:34:17 > 0:34:18- Paula Radcliffe.- Ah!
0:34:20 > 0:34:24- Would have scored you nine points. - Doesn't look like her, does it?- No.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26- Now, A. Let's take a look at A. - I think that's David Beckham.
0:34:26 > 0:34:31- It's not David Beckham. It's football related.- Michael Owen?
0:34:31 > 0:34:34- Known as a manager rather than a player.- Alex Ferguson?
0:34:34 > 0:34:39- He's from Portugal. - Jose Mourinho!- Jose Mourinho.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42What a beautiful little baby. Lovely lips.
0:34:42 > 0:34:46Oh, I'd like to kiss him. He's got fantastic lips.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48I would like you to kiss him as well.
0:34:51 > 0:34:54And D is a pointless answer. Let's take a look at him.
0:34:55 > 0:34:57He is a rugby player.
0:34:57 > 0:34:58Jonny Wilkinson?
0:34:58 > 0:35:01Jonny Wilkinson is the right answer.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Very well done if you got that at home, the pointless answer.
0:35:04 > 0:35:07Thanks very much indeed. OK, here comes your second question.
0:35:07 > 0:35:09Su and Ruth, you get to answer it first,
0:35:09 > 0:35:11but you have to win this one to stay in the game. So good luck.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13And it concerns...
0:35:18 > 0:35:20TV Sitcom Themes.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23Yes, we are not going to play you five excerpts from TV sitcom themes.
0:35:23 > 0:35:27You just got to tell us the most obscure one, please. Good luck.
0:35:27 > 0:35:28Thanks very much, indeed.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Now, let's reveal our five sitcom themes.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33And here they come. We've got...
0:35:35 > 0:35:42MUSIC PLAYS
0:35:55 > 0:36:03MUSIC PLAYS
0:36:12 > 0:36:20MUSIC PLAYS
0:36:28 > 0:36:35MUSIC PLAYS
0:36:46 > 0:36:54MUSIC PLAYS
0:37:02 > 0:37:06OK, there we are. Five TV sitcom themes.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08Su and Ruth,
0:37:08 > 0:37:11you have to guess which one the fewest of our people knew.
0:37:14 > 0:37:19THEY WHISPER
0:37:20 > 0:37:24I think, um... Let's go for...
0:37:24 > 0:37:26Let's go for C.
0:37:26 > 0:37:27Last Of The Summer Wine.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30OK, C, Last Of The Summer Wine.
0:37:30 > 0:37:34Now then, Josh and Sara, the field is yours.
0:37:34 > 0:37:35OK, we think...
0:37:35 > 0:37:38- Talk us through it. - I'll talk you through the board.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41I think A is 'Allo 'Allo!.
0:37:41 > 0:37:44- Yeah.- We think B is...
0:37:44 > 0:37:45I can't remember the name of it.
0:37:45 > 0:37:49- Curb Your...- Curb Your Enthusiasm? Larry David.- Um...
0:37:49 > 0:37:52E was Steptoe and Son.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55- D we didn't know.- No.
0:37:55 > 0:38:01And C, I think is a sitcom from the '90s called Waiting For God.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03- Cos I think that's...wrong - I think we should go B.
0:38:03 > 0:38:07We should go with the safe one. It's Curb Your Enthusiasm.
0:38:07 > 0:38:11B, Curb Your Enthusiasm, say Josh and Sara.
0:38:11 > 0:38:16So, Su and Ruth's said that C, which was...
0:38:16 > 0:38:18Da-da-da-da-da.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21Da-da-da-da-da.
0:38:21 > 0:38:25You said that was... Last Of The Summer Wine.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Let's see if that was right, and if it is,
0:38:27 > 0:38:29let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:38:31 > 0:38:35- Oh, I'm afraid it's not.- Never mind!
0:38:35 > 0:38:38Which means Josh and Sara, you merely have to be correct
0:38:38 > 0:38:41for saying that B was Curb Your Enthusiasm.
0:38:41 > 0:38:44And if it is correct, you're through to the final.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50- You've done it!- We got it! - We're in the Final!
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Let's see how far down it goes.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54It was a good answer. It's a great answer. It's a brilliant answer.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56Look at that, five! Very well done, indeed.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04Five for Curb Your Enthusiasm which means, Josh and Sara,
0:39:04 > 0:39:07after only two questions, you're straight through to the final.
0:39:07 > 0:39:082-0, well done.
0:39:08 > 0:39:09Yeah, very well played.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12Larry David's HBO sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14Let's take a tiny listen to each of them.
0:39:14 > 0:39:18So the first one, you're absolutely right, was...
0:39:18 > 0:39:21'Allo 'Allo!. Would have scored you 58 points.
0:39:21 > 0:39:23The second one we know already, Curb Your Enthusiasm.
0:39:23 > 0:39:27Now, the third one... Wonder what it could be, Josh.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30It's the most acclaimed sitcom of all time.
0:39:30 > 0:39:32- It's Fawlty Towers.- Is it?
0:39:32 > 0:39:35It is!
0:39:35 > 0:39:38- So familiar. How awful. - Isn't that amazing?
0:39:38 > 0:39:42And if you said Fawlty Towers, it would have scored you 32 points.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Um, D...
0:39:44 > 0:39:46was... No-one went for this one.
0:39:46 > 0:39:48It was The Munsters.
0:39:48 > 0:39:5015 points if you said that.
0:39:50 > 0:39:51- The Munsters.- Oh, wow.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54- And...- Yes.- ..E.
0:39:56 > 0:39:59Josh already told us, Steptoe And Son, of course.
0:40:00 > 0:40:0348 points for that.
0:40:03 > 0:40:04Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:40:07 > 0:40:08I'm afraid, is Su and Ruth.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11But, you've done it brilliantly the whole way through the show.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13You've been just wonderful.
0:40:13 > 0:40:14Some great answers from each of you
0:40:14 > 0:40:16and such entertainment along the way.
0:40:16 > 0:40:19Thank you so much for playing, wonderful contestants. Su and Ruth.
0:40:19 > 0:40:23APPLAUSE
0:40:24 > 0:40:27But for Josh and Sara it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32Congratulations, Josh and Sara.
0:40:32 > 0:40:33You've seen off all the competition
0:40:33 > 0:40:36and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:40:41 > 0:40:43You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:40:43 > 0:40:46for your chosen charities at the end of today's show.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49The jackpot stands at £2,500.
0:40:53 > 0:40:54Well, as I mentioned earlier,
0:40:54 > 0:40:57you were being a bit conservative in the first rounds.
0:40:57 > 0:41:00Quite high scoring there, bit too conservative maybe.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02And then you got a bit better trading places. Super.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04- And then, 2- 0, head-to-head. - Yeah.
0:41:04 > 0:41:07Now, as always, you get to choose your category for this last round
0:41:07 > 0:41:10and there are four options for you to choose from.
0:41:10 > 0:41:13- Shall we see what they are? - Yes, please.- OK.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22OK, I haven't seen the Blues Brothers
0:41:22 > 0:41:25so I think it would be, um...
0:41:25 > 0:41:27- a bit gung ho to choose that.- Yep.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32I know a dance to Shake Your Tail Feather if that helps.
0:41:32 > 0:41:35- Is that in the Blues Brothers?- Yes. - Right, that shows how little I know.
0:41:35 > 0:41:38- I've been to Blackpool. - Yep. And me, and me.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40We're going to have to go literary fiction
0:41:40 > 0:41:44but I'd say 80% of the leg work will be done by Pascoe on this.
0:41:44 > 0:41:48It's broad because now it's going to split up into other subjects.
0:41:48 > 0:41:51You're exactly right, it will. Literary Fiction.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54Yeah, three different but quite similar subjects for this one.
0:41:54 > 0:41:55Every ten years or so,
0:41:55 > 0:41:59Granta Magazine brings out its list of best young British novelists.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01- Oh, my God, I know one of them! - We are looking for...
0:42:01 > 0:42:04Do you know a pointless one? Do you know a pointless one?
0:42:04 > 0:42:07..any of those 20 novelists who were on the list in 1983.
0:42:07 > 0:42:08Oh, I don't know from that year!
0:42:08 > 0:42:13Any of the 20 novelists who were on the list in 1993,
0:42:13 > 0:42:18or anyone who was on that list in 2003, please.
0:42:18 > 0:42:21So, any of the 20 writers on the list in any of those years.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:42:23 > 0:42:25Now, as always, you've got up to one minute
0:42:25 > 0:42:26to come up with three answers.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29All you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those answers
0:42:29 > 0:42:30to be pointless.
0:42:30 > 0:42:31- Are you ready?- Yep.- Yep.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34OK, let's put the 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.
0:42:34 > 0:42:35Your time starts now.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38OK, I know Hanif Kureishi was on it.
0:42:38 > 0:42:41Will Self, Martin Amis. Juilan Barnes was on it.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43- These are all 83.- 83? Oh, OK.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45- Cos I read an article on it. - Did you?- Those were all on it.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48OK, so Julian Barnes has got to be a very low point
0:42:48 > 0:42:50even though he's amazing.
0:42:50 > 0:42:54So I would have said Zadie Smith for 2003 and maybe JM Coetzee,
0:42:54 > 0:42:57but I'm not definite. That could be 2004.
0:42:57 > 0:43:00It's every ten years so it doesn't matter.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02Oh, OK, OK, so it would be in the 2003 one.
0:43:02 > 0:43:03Then I would say him 2003.
0:43:03 > 0:43:07Who else won the Nobel Prize for literature?
0:43:07 > 0:43:09What about...
0:43:09 > 0:43:12- Amis is a no. Self is probably a no. - Yes, Self is a no.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15- But Julian Barnes, Zadie Smith. - I think Zadie Smith's not...
0:43:15 > 0:43:18- I think Zadie Smith's too famous. - Oh, OK.
0:43:18 > 0:43:24So I'd go JM Coetzee and Julian Barnes and...
0:43:24 > 0:43:27What about Hanif Kureishi? How do you feel about that?
0:43:27 > 0:43:28- Yeah, Hanif Kureishi.- Yep?
0:43:28 > 0:43:31- Yep.- OK.- Or Murakami cos it's always quite...
0:43:31 > 0:43:34- Oh, God, maybe I mean that. I think I mean that!- Murakami?
0:43:34 > 0:43:35Murakami.
0:43:37 > 0:43:39OK, that's your time up. Very well done. Brilliant.
0:43:39 > 0:43:41What a way to do it.
0:43:41 > 0:43:44- Tell me which category you're answering in for each answer.- '83.
0:43:44 > 0:43:46- OK.- Julian Barnes.- Julian Barnes.
0:43:48 > 0:43:53- 2003...- JM Coetzee.- JM Coetzee. - And Murakami.- And Murakami.
0:43:53 > 0:43:56Which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:43:56 > 0:44:00- Barnes.- OK, Julian Barnes we'll put last. Your least likely?
0:44:01 > 0:44:04- Murakami.- OK, Murakami we'll put first.
0:44:04 > 0:44:06OK, let's put those up in the board in that order and here they come.
0:44:06 > 0:44:07We've got...
0:44:14 > 0:44:16OK, well, very best of luck.
0:44:16 > 0:44:19Your first answer was Murakami.
0:44:20 > 0:44:24Now, if this is right and it's pointless
0:44:24 > 0:44:26and you win that jackpot of £2,500,
0:44:26 > 0:44:29what are the charities you are playing for, Josh?
0:44:29 > 0:44:32I'm playing for the Lily Foundation
0:44:32 > 0:44:36which is a charity that deals with mitochondrial disease in babies.
0:44:36 > 0:44:40- And Sara?- I'm playing for Eaves who had all of their funding cut.
0:44:40 > 0:44:43They are a charity that deal with women who have experienced violence.
0:44:43 > 0:44:45Excellent. Well, two brilliant charities there.
0:44:48 > 0:44:50Very, very best of luck.
0:44:50 > 0:44:53Let's hope that at least one of these answers is pointless.
0:44:53 > 0:44:56OK, your first answer, Haruki Murakami...
0:44:56 > 0:44:58This has to be right, then it has to be pointless
0:44:58 > 0:44:59if you're going to win that jackpot.
0:44:59 > 0:45:04So let's find out for £2,500 how many people said Haruki Mirakami.
0:45:07 > 0:45:11No, I'm afraid an incorrect answer.
0:45:11 > 0:45:13So, unfortunately not a pointless answer.
0:45:13 > 0:45:16Only two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:45:16 > 0:45:18Your second answer was JM Coetzee.
0:45:19 > 0:45:22OK, this has to be Pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:45:22 > 0:45:26Let's find out for £2,500 how many people said JM Coetzee
0:45:26 > 0:45:29was on that Granta list for 2003.
0:45:32 > 0:45:35- No!- We're looking less clever by the moment, aren't we?
0:45:35 > 0:45:37No, you're not. You're not, you're not.
0:45:37 > 0:45:39Now, your third and final answer,
0:45:39 > 0:45:44the one that everything is riding on is Julian Barnes.
0:45:44 > 0:45:47And this was from 1983.
0:45:47 > 0:45:49Let's find out for £2,500 how many people said Julian Barnes.
0:45:49 > 0:45:51Is it right? Is it Pointless?
0:45:54 > 0:45:56- It's right! - OK, well done, it's right.
0:45:56 > 0:45:58OK, that's what it had to be. It is right.
0:45:58 > 0:46:00Your first answer, Haruki Murakami, was wrong.
0:46:00 > 0:46:03JM Coetzee was also wrong, but Julian Barnes is bang on the money.
0:46:03 > 0:46:06Down it goes... Yes! You've done it!
0:46:06 > 0:46:09Very, very well done indeed.
0:46:09 > 0:46:13Fantastic. Brilliant work.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15- Come now.- Unbelievable!
0:46:15 > 0:46:17- All right, well done.- You knew it!
0:46:22 > 0:46:26Congratulations! Julian Barnes was a pointless answer.
0:46:26 > 0:46:28It's exactly what you said - if one of them is pointless, that's fine.
0:46:28 > 0:46:31- It can be wrong, wrong, pointless. - Oh, my word.
0:46:31 > 0:46:34You go home with that jackpot of £2,500 for your charities.
0:46:34 > 0:46:38Very, very well done indeed, Josh and Sara. Superb job.
0:46:42 > 0:46:44Yeah, very well played. Congratulations, both of you.
0:46:44 > 0:46:47Also, thank you for putting them in that order as well.
0:46:47 > 0:46:49The two wrong ones and then the pointless answer third.
0:46:49 > 0:46:52- That's much better for tension. - Yeah, we made sure.
0:46:52 > 0:46:53Yeah, appreciate that.
0:46:53 > 0:46:55In terms of Murakami and Coetzee,
0:46:55 > 0:46:57you're slightly disobeying the young British novelist rule.
0:46:57 > 0:47:00Neither of them are British. Murakami, Japanese.
0:47:00 > 0:47:01Coetzee, South African.
0:47:01 > 0:47:03Oh, yeah! We didn't even listen to the question properly!
0:47:03 > 0:47:05That's OK. That's OK.
0:47:05 > 0:47:07Now let's take a look at the pointless answers
0:47:07 > 0:47:10in all of the different categories in case people at home have got them.
0:47:10 > 0:47:14For 1983, Graham Swift you could've had. There's Julian Barnes.
0:47:14 > 0:47:18You could have had Kazou Ishiguro who was also on the 1993 list as well.
0:47:18 > 0:47:20The brilliant William Boyd is a pointless answer.
0:47:20 > 0:47:23You could've had AN Wilson, Adam Mars-Jones, Rose Tremain,
0:47:23 > 0:47:24all of those pointless there.
0:47:24 > 0:47:26Let's take a look at the 1993 list.
0:47:28 > 0:47:31There's Hanif Kureishi. He would've been amongst the '93 list.
0:47:31 > 0:47:34- But I thought it was '83.- Exactly. - Will Self was pointless!
0:47:34 > 0:47:36Jeanette Winterson, Louis De Bernieres,
0:47:36 > 0:47:38but Will Self, again, I think he was...
0:47:38 > 0:47:40you were going for '83, weren't you?
0:47:40 > 0:47:41So, lucky in some ways you didn't say it.
0:47:41 > 0:47:43Again, Adam Mars-Jones on that list as well.
0:47:43 > 0:47:46Alan Hollinghurst, AL Kennedy on that list.
0:47:46 > 0:47:48Let's take a look at the 2003 list.
0:47:48 > 0:47:50Zadie Smith would have scored you five points if you'd said it.
0:47:50 > 0:47:52She was on the 2003 list.
0:47:52 > 0:47:55AL Kennedy again, Ben Rice, Rachel Seiffert,
0:47:55 > 0:47:56and Sara Waters as well on that list.
0:47:56 > 0:47:58Very well done if you got any of those at home.
0:47:58 > 0:48:01Congratulations, Josh and Sara. It's been a pleasure having you here.
0:48:01 > 0:48:03Congratulations to you and your charities.
0:48:03 > 0:48:05- BOTH:- Thanks for having us.
0:48:05 > 0:48:07Thanks once again to our winning players, Josh and Sara,
0:48:07 > 0:48:10who go away with today's jackpot of £2,500 for their charities.
0:48:10 > 0:48:11Brilliant.
0:48:13 > 0:48:14Yeah, I can't believe it!
0:48:14 > 0:48:17Join us next time and we'll be putting more obscure knowledge
0:48:17 > 0:48:18to the test on Pointless.
0:48:18 > 0:48:20- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:48:20 > 0:48:22And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
