0:00:48 > 0:00:51And I'm Richard Arnold, and I don't believe I've ever played it straight
0:00:51 > 0:00:53at that time in the morning. LAUGHTER
0:00:53 > 0:00:54Or indeed, any other time!
0:00:54 > 0:00:56APPLAUSE

0:01:07 > 0:01:11I'm Fern Britton and I have been a daytime presenter,
0:01:11 > 0:01:14I'm now a writer, and I don't look hot in a bikini.

0:01:19 > 0:01:23I'm Naga Munchetty, I'm a BBC Breakfast presenter
0:01:23 > 0:01:26and I have nothing funny to say. LAUGHTER
0:01:26 > 0:01:30I'm Charlie Stayt, and I'm also a BBC Breakfast presenter.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32APPLAUSE
0:01:34 > 0:01:36And finally, couple number four.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Hello, I'm Natasha Kaplinsky.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41We were the Breakfast presenters before this lot,
0:01:41 > 0:01:44and a long-term friend of Mr Murnaghan.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47And yeah, I'm Dermot Murnaghan and I'm now a news presenter
0:01:47 > 0:01:49and quiz show host.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51AUDIENCE: Ooh. Ooh.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54APPLAUSE
0:01:54 > 0:01:58And these are today's contestants. Thank you very much, all of you. We'll find out more about you
0:01:58 > 0:02:02throughout the show as it goes along. So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:02:02 > 0:02:03He's been on the show so long, he remembers
0:02:03 > 0:02:05when all this studio was just fields.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08It's my Pointless friend - it's Richard.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Hi, everybody.
0:02:11 > 0:02:12Evening.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Ah. Good evening. So, Richard. What? Good evening.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Oh, I know what you're going to say. What?
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Haircut. LAUGHTER
0:02:21 > 0:02:23I like it a lot. You like it?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27Isn't this strange? So we're doing a morning television version
0:02:27 > 0:02:31of a daytime television programme, and it's on Saturday night primetime.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34That's a bit weird, isn't it? Now, it's very interesting,
0:02:34 > 0:02:36cos all of these people are consummate professionals.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38All done lots of live television.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41I think that's the first time we've ever had four lots of introductions
0:02:41 > 0:02:44without ever having to do one retake. They were ace. Absolutely fantastic.
0:02:44 > 0:02:45I'll tell you another first.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Mm-hm? See your trousers. Yeah, you can see... LAUGHTER
0:02:48 > 0:02:50No, I'll tell you another first - trousers.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53I'm wearing trousers, yeah. It is a first.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56Yeah, I'm wearing trousers, I've got pastries, I've got tea.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Would you like a cup of tea? Oh, I really would. Just what I need.
0:02:58 > 0:03:02There you go. That's nice, isn't it? Mm, isn't it?
0:03:02 > 0:03:05We've got two people who have played Pointless before. We've got Kate,
0:03:05 > 0:03:10who did very well - she's been in a final before now. She has.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12So, Richard, you're in good hands there.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Charlie did less well when he came on. LAUGHTER
0:03:15 > 0:03:18So, Naga, I think you've got your work cut out.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21But, you know, obviously Dermot is going to win,
0:03:21 > 0:03:23because he's a quiz show host. Mm.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26And the one thing we know about quiz show hosts is they know everything.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Yeah, they know all the answers... We know nothing.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32..to everything. Well, we're about to find out. LAUGHTER
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Thank you very much, Richard. Now, as usual, all of today's questions
0:03:35 > 0:03:37have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41Our contestants here are on the lookout for those all-important pointless answers,
0:03:41 > 0:03:43these being the answers that none of our 100 people gave.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46Each time that happens, we will add ?250 to the jackpot.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Now, as today's show is a celebrity special,
0:03:49 > 0:03:54we start off with a lovely bumper jackpot of ?2,500. There it is.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06Now, all you have to remember is that the pair
0:04:06 > 0:04:09with the highest score at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Simple as that. You just have to do everything you can to make sure
0:04:12 > 0:04:14you're not that pair. Best of luck to everyone.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Our first category this evening is...
0:04:17 > 0:04:20Look at that. It's Mountainous Regions. It's Mountainous Regions. Oh, my...
0:04:20 > 0:04:24Could you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:04:33 > 0:04:38We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:04:38 > 0:04:41countries higher than the UK.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Countries higher than the UK. Richard?
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Yeah, the highest point in the UK is Ben Nevis.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48We're looking for any country in the world whose highest point
0:04:48 > 0:04:50is higher than Ben Nevis, please.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53So any country in the world whose highest point is higher
0:04:53 > 0:04:54than the highest point of the UK.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Richard, welcome to Pointless.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Thank you so much, Xander. Great to have you here.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05You should be perfectly equipped for Pointless, surely?
0:05:05 > 0:05:07All that showbiz, all that razzle-dazzle.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Was it always showbiz with you, Richard?
0:05:09 > 0:05:13Did you do other areas of the news?
0:05:13 > 0:05:15No. I think it's fair to say I never came to current affairs.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19And I was under the impression this was a daytime show, and yet I'm seeing the entire team,
0:05:19 > 0:05:23with the possible exception of my dear friend Fern, has been hewn from current affairs.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24So I'm a little bit nervous.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27So yes, jazz hands, bit of glitter and spangle -
0:05:27 > 0:05:30you know I'm your man, Xander, for that.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34I do. I do. LAUGHTER
0:05:34 > 0:05:39Now, Richard. What are you going to go for, Richard?
0:05:39 > 0:05:41I'm going to say South Africa.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44South Africa? South Africa, says Richard.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said South Africa.
0:05:51 > 0:05:52It's right.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59That's a good answer. Down it goes, 13. APPLAUSE
0:05:59 > 0:06:02Very well done indeed, Richard. What a great start to the show! Well done! Well done.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Brilliant. 13 for South Africa.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Well played, Richard. Very good start.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Very tough on that first podium to come up with a good answer -
0:06:08 > 0:06:11did exactly what you needed to do. Thanks very much indeed.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Now, Matthew, welcome to Pointless. It's great to have you here.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Nice to be here. Now, you started off
0:06:16 > 0:06:18in the inky world of print journalism, didn't you? Yes.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Before you went... Before you broke into morning television. Yes.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25What was your biggest scoop? Biggest scoop?
0:06:25 > 0:06:29Fake chat show guests on a daytime TV show, bizarrely. LAUGHTER
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Yeah, that was probably the biggest.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34So yeah, some good scoops along the way.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36So, Matthew, mountains. Mountains, Matthew.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38I'm very lucky -
0:06:38 > 0:06:41I do motorcycle tours in Asia and I've been to Bhutan
0:06:41 > 0:06:45and I would think Bhutan is higher than the UK. Ooh!
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Bhutan, says Matthew. Let's see if it's right,
0:06:47 > 0:06:50let's see how many of our 100 people said Bhutan.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53It's right.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57Well, 13 is our only score so far. Bhutan...
0:06:57 > 0:07:00knocks it off its perch. 3! APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Very well done indeed, Matthew! Well done!
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Very well done indeed, Matthew. 3.
0:07:12 > 0:07:17Yeah, the Gangkhar Puensum, as you will well know. It's 7,500 metres.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19That's a lot.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Wow! Thank you very much indeed.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Now, Charlie. Welcome back.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26Now, listen, before you went into journalism,
0:07:26 > 0:07:31you had a whole range of jobs. You were a barman, a roadie... I was.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Yes. Who were you a roadie for?
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Well, amongst my many claims to fame,
0:07:35 > 0:07:38I was once Norman Wisdom's bucket man.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41On stage. I had to carry on... There was a point at which he needed
0:07:41 > 0:07:43the bucket of water and I took it on.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Someone has to. And he was a childhood hero of mine, so... Yeah.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50So, Charlie, mountains. Yes. Mountains. Mountainous countries.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52I'm going to choose Peru.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Peru, says Charlie. Peru. Let's see if that's right
0:07:55 > 0:07:58and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Peru.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04It's right. Well, 13's our high, 3 is our low.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Ooh, it's not bad! 16! Look at that! Not bad at all!
0:08:09 > 0:08:11APPLAUSE A new high.
0:08:11 > 0:08:12A new peak.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18Yeah, Huascaran, which is nearly 7,000 metres.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Dermot, welcome. Thanks for having me.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23How nice to see the pair of you there together.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Once part of the team on BBC Breakfast. Reunited. Reunited.
0:08:27 > 0:08:32Who was the...better... The chirpier of a morning? Always Natasha.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35Oh, I don't know about that. She sprang out of bed.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Or sprang out of her car... LAUGHTER
0:08:37 > 0:08:39..onto the sofa.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42We weren't together!
0:08:42 > 0:08:44LAUGHTER
0:08:44 > 0:08:45OK.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47You know what I mean.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49So, there's another scoop for you, Matthew.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51LAUGHTER
0:08:52 > 0:08:54Now, Dermot, mountains.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56I'll say Japan.
0:08:56 > 0:08:57Japan. Let's see if that's right
0:08:57 > 0:09:01and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Japan.
0:09:03 > 0:09:04It's right.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07A long time hesitating there.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Not bad at all. 14. APPLAUSE
0:09:12 > 0:09:1414 - not the highest score, Dermot.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Well played, Dermot. Very good answer.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Finally, a mountain I can actually pronounce, Mount Fuji,
0:09:20 > 0:09:23highest mountain in Japan. There you go. That's nice. Yeah.
0:09:23 > 0:09:28Now, OK. We're halfway through the round, so let's take a look at the scores as they stand. 3, Matthew. 3.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Very, very strong as contenders for Round Two.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Then up to 13, quite a hike, Richard and Kate.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Up to 14, Dermot and Natasha.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37And then 16, you're not way ahead,
0:09:37 > 0:09:39but Naga, let's have a nice low score from you.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42We're going to come back down the line. Good luck with that.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Will the second players step up to the podium?
0:09:47 > 0:09:50OK, so, Natasha, remember we're looking for any country whose
0:09:50 > 0:09:54highest point is higher than the highest point in the UK.
0:09:54 > 0:09:59Now, Natasha, is it true that you started out doing a show with
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Sacha Baron Cohen? It is indeed, yes. You did, didn't you?
0:10:01 > 0:10:05And I can tell you he was quite a dangerous co-presenter to work with.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07I bet he was. I do remember one particular day,
0:10:07 > 0:10:11somehow he managed to get our guest to take off all of their clothes
0:10:11 > 0:10:14at five o'clock in the afternoon, live.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16LAUGHTER
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Natasha, listen, you're on 14.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22The high scorers at the moment are Naga and Charlie on 16, so a score
0:10:22 > 0:10:26of 1 or less, for example, will definitely keep you in the game.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28So there's no pressure(!) Yeah.
0:10:28 > 0:10:29I'm playing for Save The Children tonight
0:10:29 > 0:10:32and I've travelled quite a lot with them.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34And I'm going to go for...
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Rwanda.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40Rwanda, says Natasha. Rwanda. There is a red line for you there.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44It's just only visible to dogs. So, um...
0:10:44 > 0:10:47If you can get below that with Rwanda, you are definitely
0:10:47 > 0:10:50in the next round. Let's see how many people said Rwanda.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54It's right.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57Well, our lowest score so far has been 3.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58Rwanda...
0:10:58 > 0:11:00It's pointless! Look at that! CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
0:11:00 > 0:11:04Natasha, very well done indeed! That's a pointless answer!
0:11:04 > 0:11:09It adds ?250 to today's jackpot, takes the total up to ?2,750.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13It scores you nothing, leaves your total at 14 and sees you
0:11:13 > 0:11:16oh so comfortably into Round Two. That is exemplary play, Natasha.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19That's brilliant. Everyone's very clever, aren't they? Aren't they?
0:11:19 > 0:11:21A breath of fresh air, isn't it?
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Mount Karasimbi is the highest mountain in Rwanda.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Of course, famous for their mountain gorillas in Rwanda, as well.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Yes, thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:11:29 > 0:11:30Now then, Naga.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34You have interviewed a whole host of people over the years.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37I was going to ask you who's been the most awkward person to
0:11:37 > 0:11:39interview, but I think that's going to be awkward for you.
0:11:39 > 0:11:44Who's been your favourite? Let's do it that way round. Favourite, Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45Interviewed her a couple of months ago
0:11:45 > 0:11:47and very, very interesting woman.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51Yes. And although she's absolutely very tough and very focused,
0:11:51 > 0:11:54she's very warm and a very lovely person.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56That was the impression I got.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58That kind of comes over, actually, doesn't it?
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Now then, Naga, you are the high-scorers,
0:12:01 > 0:12:03so let's have a nice low score from you.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05We'll try Uruguay.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08Uruguay, says Naga. Let's see if that's right.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10No red line for you, as you're the high scorers,
0:12:10 > 0:12:13but let's see how many of our 100 people said Uruguay.
0:12:16 > 0:12:17AUDIENCE MOANS
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Oh, no, Naga!
0:12:19 > 0:12:21I'm so sorry.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23That's an incorrect answer - scores you 100 points
0:12:23 > 0:12:25and takes your total up to 116.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Yeah, sorry, Naga. It's a valiant effort.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31It's only 500 metres at the highest point in Uruguay.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33Scarcely even worth writing about(!)
0:12:33 > 0:12:36Thank you very much indeed. Pleasure.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Now, Fern, welcome. Thank you.
0:12:39 > 0:12:40Now, you've written lots of books.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43You've written five novels, every single one of which has been on
0:12:43 > 0:12:45the Sunday Times Best Seller list.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48You must be very disciplined? Yes.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Being at home is great because you just fall out of bed, you can write
0:12:51 > 0:12:54in your pyjamas, drink lots of tea -
0:12:54 > 0:12:58almost as good as that - lots of chocolate biscuits,
0:12:58 > 0:13:00pick the kids up. That's it, done. Lovely.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04Lovely job. Now, great news - you're through to the next round.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08I'm going to go for one that I know definitely, anyway.
0:13:08 > 0:13:14OK. Cos I want to see where it is. And it is Tanzania. OK, Tanzania.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16No red line for you - you're already through.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Let's see how many of our 100 people said Tanzania.
0:13:22 > 0:13:23It's right.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Our lowest score so far has been a pointless answer.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30And that is almost pointless!
0:13:30 > 0:13:32Second-lowest score!
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Second-lowest score of the round, Fern, what about that?
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Takes your total up to 5.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Well played, Fern. Amazing score on podium two there. Very impressive.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Of course, Mount Kilimanjaro is in Tanzania. Exactly.
0:13:47 > 0:13:52And so, Kate... Yes. You must exude something of the morning about you
0:13:52 > 0:13:56because - no, bear with me - you're on breakfast time telly.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59That is the thing people say, "Ah, Kate Garraway - morning person."
0:13:59 > 0:14:03I hope to high heaven that that agrees with your body clock.
0:14:03 > 0:14:07I think it sort of has to now cos it's about 20 years at the BBC
0:14:07 > 0:14:10and Sky and then ITV.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Yeah, so... I know.
0:14:12 > 0:14:17I can't get past 10:30, basically.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20I'm not going to ask what happens! Just collapse!
0:14:20 > 0:14:24You go on Smooth - that's what you do. I do go on Smooth Radio, yeah.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27Wonderful. Now, Kate, there you are on 13.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Doesn't matter what you score, you're through.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31May be another pointless answer in there.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35OK, well, I'm playing today for Save The Children and I recently went
0:14:35 > 0:14:40on a trip there with them to look at maternity services in Ethiopia.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43So I'm wondering if it's Ethiopia.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46Ethiopia. No red line for the lovely reason that you are through.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50OK, let's see how many of our 100 people said Ethiopia.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55It's right.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57If this goes all the way down to zero,
0:14:57 > 0:15:00we'll add another 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03It's another pointless answer! That's wonderful, Kate!
0:15:03 > 0:15:06Very well done indeed. Exactly what I asked of you.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08That adds another ?250 to today's jackpot,
0:15:08 > 0:15:10takes the total up to ?3,000.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14It's a second Save The Children pointless answer.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Well done to both of you there.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20Scores you nothing, leaves your total at 13. Fabulous answer.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Yeah, well played, Kate, terrific answer.
0:15:22 > 0:15:23Terrific answers from everyone.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26Uruguay's the only wrong step and that's Uruguay's fault
0:15:26 > 0:15:27rather than Naga's fault, I think.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31This is harder without a swivel chair.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Uganda - an old Pointless favourite.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47Vanuatu - that's got a big mountain in it.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50Let's take a look at the three most popular answers,
0:15:50 > 0:15:52the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58That's a good answer, isn't it? Mm. Doesn't often finish that high up.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01And right at the top...
0:16:03 > 0:16:06Very good. Thank you, Richard. So, at the end of our first round,
0:16:06 > 0:16:09the pair who are heading home with a high score of 116,
0:16:09 > 0:16:11I'm sorry to say, Naga and Charlie, it's you.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14Please come back and...win.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18We'll try. That would make us all very happy.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Thanks very much. Naga and Charlie - excellent, excellent players.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23APPLAUSE
0:16:23 > 0:16:25For the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Now we are down to three pairs. At the end of this round I have to say
0:16:33 > 0:16:36goodbye to another pair in time for our head-to-head.
0:16:36 > 0:16:41The good news is I have got plaudits to throw around. Well done, Natasha.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45Well done, Kate. Two individual high points there.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48Very, very well done. It's great to have you all here.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two today is...
0:16:56 > 0:17:00OK, can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second,
0:17:00 > 0:17:02and whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08OK, and the question concerns...
0:17:11 > 0:17:13TV Winners, Richard.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16On each board we're going to show you six sets of names.
0:17:16 > 0:17:17Each of those sets have won
0:17:17 > 0:17:20a particular TV talent show or reality show.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23Just need you to name that show, please. Very best of luck.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26OK. We are looking for the show on which these people were winners.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29And here's our first board of six.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31ALEXANDER READS NAMES
0:17:45 > 0:17:47I'll read those again, quicker.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04OK, Richard, you know all of these answers.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Um...Edd Kimber, John Whaite, Frances Quinn -
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Great British Bake Off.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Great British Bake Off, says Richard. Let's see if that's right
0:18:13 > 0:18:17and, if it is, how many of our 100 people said Great British Bake Off.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21It's right.
0:18:21 > 0:18:22Very well done, Richard.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29That's a very good answer. Look at that - 9 for Great British Bake Off.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Great start to the round, Richard.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36Well played, Richard. Edd Kimber was the winner of the very first series.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Yeah.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Thank you, Richard. Now, Fern. Mm.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45So, I'm going to go for the top one,
0:18:45 > 0:18:48Craig Phillips, Kate Lawler, Brian Belo - Big Brother.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Big Brother, says Fern. Let's see if that's right and,
0:18:51 > 0:18:53if it is, how many people said Big Brother.
0:18:55 > 0:18:56It's right.
0:19:01 > 0:19:0325 for Big Brother.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Very good answer, Fern.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11Craig Phillips the winner of the first series of that one.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13Thank you, Richard. Now, Dermot.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16You're the last person to have this board. Why not talk us through it?
0:19:16 > 0:19:19So we got Paul Potts, Diversity -
0:19:19 > 0:19:22Britain's Got Talent. And at the bottom is The X Factor.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25David Sneddon and Alex Parks, isn't that Fame Academy or The Voice?
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Ooh, shall I have a punt?
0:19:27 > 0:19:30Nah, I've got to go safe. I'll go, um...
0:19:30 > 0:19:33The X Factor at the bottom. OK, The X Factor, says Dermot.
0:19:33 > 0:19:34Let's see if that's right,
0:19:34 > 0:19:37let's see how many of our 100 people said The X Factor.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42It's right. 25, our high score.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Until now.
0:19:44 > 0:19:4656. Not bad, though, Dermot.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48As damage limitation goes,
0:19:48 > 0:19:50that's pretty good. 56 is a lot better than 100.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54Yeah, although Britain's Got Talent would have been a better answer.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57That would have scored you...
0:19:57 > 0:20:0142 points. Fame Academy for David Sneddon, Alex Parks
0:20:01 > 0:20:03would have been an even better answer.
0:20:03 > 0:20:08Cos it's absolutely right and would have scored you 2 points. No!
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Oh, well done. Unlucky.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13And this other one is a pointless answer.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Does anyone know that one? Britain's Next Top Model?
0:20:15 > 0:20:19Yeah, Britain And Ireland's Next Top Model. Absolutely. Pointless answer.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23Very interested to see your answer in the next pass, Matthew.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26I wouldn't have said that if it was my go there. Thanks very much.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29We're halfway through the round so let's look at those scores.
0:20:29 > 0:20:319, Richard, very well done to you.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Richard and Kate looking very strong.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35Then up to 25 where we find Fern and Matthew.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Then up to 56, Dermot and Natasha.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39So, yes, we need a low score from you, Natasha.
0:20:39 > 0:20:43But you get first dibs on the new board. We're going to come back down
0:20:43 > 0:20:46the line. Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:20:49 > 0:20:51OK, we're going to put six more sets of names up on the board,
0:20:51 > 0:20:54and here they come. We have got...
0:20:54 > 0:20:56ALEXANDER READS NAMES
0:21:10 > 0:21:12I'll read those one last time.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30So, remember, Natasha,
0:21:30 > 0:21:35we are looking for the shows in which these people were winners.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37I am going to go for...
0:21:37 > 0:21:42Tim Campbell, Lee McQueen and Leah Totton - The Apprentice.
0:21:42 > 0:21:46The Apprentice, says Natasha. Let's hope that's right and let's hope
0:21:46 > 0:21:48it goes a long way down the column. There's no red line for you
0:21:48 > 0:21:52as you're the high scorers. How many people said The Apprentice?
0:21:54 > 0:21:56It's right! Very well done, good hunch there.
0:22:00 > 0:22:01Not bad at all.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Look at that - 4! APPLAUSE
0:22:04 > 0:22:07You might be back in the game. That takes your total up to 60.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Very well done indeed.
0:22:09 > 0:22:13Very well played, Natasha. Really put the pressure on the others there.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Tim Campbell, again, the winner of the first series of The Apprentice.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Thank you very much indeed. So, Matthew.
0:22:19 > 0:22:23If you can score 34 or less you're through to the next round.
0:22:23 > 0:22:27I think that least popular one will be
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Thomasina Miers, Mat Follas, Ping Coombes - MasterChef.
0:22:30 > 0:22:34MasterChef, says Matthew. There's your red line.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36Get below that with MasterChef, you are in the head-to-head.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said MasterChef.
0:22:42 > 0:22:43It's right.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Through you go. Well done, Matthew.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51Good score! Look at that - 3!
0:22:51 > 0:22:5428 your total. Very good indeed.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59Great stuff. We're cooking! You are cooking.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03If it's mountains or reality TV, Matthew can score low.
0:23:03 > 0:23:09Thomasina Miers won the first series of that. Co-founded Wahaca. Yeah.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12Now, Kate, the moment of truth.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16Mm. Yes, you have to score 50 or less.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18I'm going to go for Charlotte Hobrough and Jonny Gibb
0:23:18 > 0:23:21and I think it might be Survivor.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23And I've got a weird feeling about it, but I might be wrong.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27Wouldn't it be brilliant if you were right? Let's find out.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30Kate, there is your red line. If you get below that you are
0:23:30 > 0:23:32through to the head-to-head. Let's see if Survivor's right.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35And, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Survivor.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41It's right! It's right, Kate, very well done.
0:23:41 > 0:23:42And you're through!
0:23:45 > 0:23:471! CHEERING
0:23:49 > 0:23:50Very well done indeed.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52That takes your total up to 10,
0:23:52 > 0:23:54the lowest total of the round. Brilliant.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Very well done, Kate. Very good answer.
0:23:57 > 0:24:03That one point is evidence that Jonny Gibb is a member of our 100.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06He's not really. Let's have a look at the rest of this board.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10Beth Tweddle, Ray Quinn, Suzanne Shaw is Dancing On Ice.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12I was almost going to get you to fill in the board
0:24:12 > 0:24:16and then I remembered who you were. LAUGHTER
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Tony Blackburn, Kerry Katona, Christopher Biggins...
0:24:18 > 0:24:20I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
0:24:20 > 0:24:2353. And Jill Halfpenny, Darren Gough, Kara Tointon, Natasha Kaplinsky.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26Strictly. Strictly Come Dancing.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30Would have scored 34. That's a very low score. Not a bad score at all.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33There you go. I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to one pair
0:24:33 > 0:24:35and that pair is Natasha and Dermot.
0:24:35 > 0:24:40I'm so sorry. Our BBC Breakfast team. We'll see you again, I hope.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Meantime, thanks so much, Natasha and Dermot. Wonderful.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45APPLAUSE
0:24:46 > 0:24:48For Matthew and Fern and Kate and Richard,
0:24:48 > 0:24:50it's time for our head-to-head.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Congratulations, Kate and Richard, Matthew and Fern -
0:24:56 > 0:24:59you're now one step closer to the final, and a chance to play for
0:24:59 > 0:25:03our jackpot, which currently stands at ?3,000.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06CHEERING
0:25:06 > 0:25:09So right here is the point where we decide who goes through to the final
0:25:09 > 0:25:11and plays for that jackpot for their charity.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13We do that by making you go head-to-head.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16You're now allowed to confer and the first pair to win two questions
0:25:16 > 0:25:19will be playing for that jackpot. Best of luck to both pairs.
0:25:19 > 0:25:20Let's play the head-to-head.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:25:35 > 0:25:37People Eating Breakfast.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Yeah, we're about to show you five pictures of well-known people
0:25:40 > 0:25:43all eating breakfast. We just need you to tell us who they are, please.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45All of these photos were taken by Xander and myself.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47LAUGHTER
0:25:47 > 0:25:50OK, let's reveal out five people a-breakfastin' and here they are.
0:25:50 > 0:25:51We have...
0:25:54 > 0:25:56He was furious. He was.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58We took that a long time ago.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03I think he knew we were there. Yeah.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07She didn't. LAUGHTER
0:26:19 > 0:26:22There we are, five people at breakfast.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25Kate and Richard, you get to go first.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27There's one we don't know.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29I'm looking at C and it's like looking in a mirror.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32LAUGHTER
0:26:32 > 0:26:33I think we're going to go for B.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37Yeah, Brian Turner. Brian Turner. Brian Turner.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40Brian Turner. Matthew and Fern, talk us through the rest of the board.
0:26:40 > 0:26:46Fill in the blanks. So, we think that A is Frank Sinatra.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48D, Pierce Brosnan. E...
0:26:48 > 0:26:51He looks like an American. Maybe Woodward from rugby...
0:26:51 > 0:26:54I can't see. Looks like an American to me or something.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Shall we go for it? Do you think it is him?
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Right, please may we go for A, Frank Sinatra.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02A, Frank Sinatra. So we have Brian Turner and Frank Sinatra.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06Kate and Richard said B was Brian Turner. Let's see if that's right
0:27:06 > 0:27:10and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Brian Turner.
0:27:12 > 0:27:13It's right.
0:27:17 > 0:27:2121! 21 for Brian Turner. Not bad at all.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Good score.
0:27:23 > 0:27:27Matthew and Fern have said A is Frank Sinatra.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Let's just find out if that's right and, if it is, let's see
0:27:30 > 0:27:32how many people said Frank Sinatra.
0:27:34 > 0:27:38It is right. It is right.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41Oh, no - 38.
0:27:41 > 0:27:42APPLAUSE
0:27:44 > 0:27:4638, which means well done, Kate and Richard.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48After one question you are up 1-0.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51Well done. Yeah, Brian Turner a very good answer.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54C, she scores lower than Brian Turner.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57We live in a world where Brian Turner is more famous than...
0:27:57 > 0:27:59MATTHEW: Mariah Carey.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02Mariah Carey. 18 points.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Let's take a look at the other two.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08D is Pierce Brosnan, of course. Biggest scorer.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12That is so not his breakfast. That's so not his house, either.
0:28:12 > 0:28:17Who has one of those in their house? A German helmet?
0:28:17 > 0:28:19LAUGHTER
0:28:19 > 0:28:22And E, it does look a bit like Sir Clive Woodward. It's not, though.
0:28:22 > 0:28:25You're right, Fern, it's an American. It's an American President.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27Gerald Ford.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29FERN: Oh!
0:28:29 > 0:28:33Thank you. So, there we are. Here comes your second question.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36Matthew and Fern, you get to answer it first. OK. But you also have to
0:28:36 > 0:28:39win it to stay in the game. Best of luck. It concerns...
0:28:43 > 0:28:45Music From Disney Films, Richard.
0:28:45 > 0:28:47This is some people's absolute perfect round.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50We're going to play you five excerpts from songs from Disney films.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53We need you to tell us the name of the film they originally came from.
0:28:53 > 0:28:54Very best of luck.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57OK, let's play our five excerpts, and here they come.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59We have got, A...
0:29:00 > 0:29:03# Heigh-ho
0:29:04 > 0:29:07# Heigh-ho
0:29:07 > 0:29:12# Heigh-ho Heigh-ho, heigh-ho
0:29:12 > 0:29:14# Heigh-ho, heigh-ho
0:29:14 > 0:29:17# It's home from work we go... #
0:29:18 > 0:29:19B...
0:29:21 > 0:29:25PLODDING CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYS
0:29:32 > 0:29:34C...
0:29:34 > 0:29:37# Suddenly I see
0:29:37 > 0:29:39# Standing here
0:29:39 > 0:29:41# It's all so clear
0:29:41 > 0:29:46# I'm where I'm meant to be
0:29:46 > 0:29:51# And at last I see... #
0:29:51 > 0:29:52D...
0:29:53 > 0:29:55# Under the sea
0:29:55 > 0:29:58# Under the sea
0:29:58 > 0:29:59# Darling, it's better
0:29:59 > 0:30:03# Down where it's wetter, take it from me
0:30:03 > 0:30:05# Up on the shore... #
0:30:05 > 0:30:07And E...
0:30:07 > 0:30:09# Look for the bare necessities
0:30:09 > 0:30:12# Those simple bare necessities
0:30:12 > 0:30:16# Forget about your worries and your strife
0:30:16 > 0:30:20# I mean the bare necessities... #
0:30:20 > 0:30:24So there we are, five excepts from Disney film tunes.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27Matthew and Fern, it's over to you.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29B? B, Fantasia.
0:30:29 > 0:30:33Fantasia, say Matthew and Fern. Now, Kate and Richard, it's over to you.
0:30:33 > 0:30:37Do you want to talk us through all of them? Snow White is A.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41Jungle Book was E. And D was Little Mermaid. We're struggling with C.
0:30:41 > 0:30:44I know the song and I can't remember the film.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46Shall we just say Little Mermaid? D. D.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49OK, D, Little Mermaid, is that right?
0:30:49 > 0:30:51Yes. They're saying Little Mermaid.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54Matthew and Fern have said Fantasia for B. Let's see if that's right
0:30:54 > 0:30:57and, if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01Well, it's right.
0:31:01 > 0:31:03HE MUMBLES QUIETLY
0:31:03 > 0:31:06APPLAUSE
0:31:06 > 0:31:1039. That's quite high for Fantasia.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12All right, yeah, it's quite high!
0:31:12 > 0:31:14We tried our best, all right, all right!
0:31:14 > 0:31:16Don't rub it in. Doing it for a good cause, all right!
0:31:16 > 0:31:21Kate and Richard, you've gone for The Little Mermaid for D.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our
0:31:24 > 0:31:26100 people said The Little Mermaid. It's all back to mine afterwards...
0:31:26 > 0:31:27It's right.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32Hey! 49!
0:31:32 > 0:31:35There you go, Matthew and Fern.
0:31:35 > 0:31:39Back in the game, Matthew. Very well done. After two questions it's 1-1.
0:31:39 > 0:31:43Richard? Yeah, two very big scorers here. A, let's take a quick listen.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46# Heigh-ho... #
0:31:46 > 0:31:48It is, of course, Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51That would have scored you 84 points.
0:31:51 > 0:31:55Let's go to the last one. Let's go to E, if we can...
0:31:55 > 0:31:58which I think everyone knew is The Jungle Book.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01# Look for the bare necessities... #
0:32:01 > 0:32:04And that scored 86 points. Even bigger score.
0:32:04 > 0:32:08The best answer on the board is C. Let's have a quick listen.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10# Suddenly I see
0:32:10 > 0:32:12# Standing here... #
0:32:12 > 0:32:14That is from Tangled.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16FERN: What is it? Tangled.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18Very good film, Tangled.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21It's a funny film. OK.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25Thank you, Richard.
0:32:25 > 0:32:27There we are - we come down to a decider.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Whoever wins this goes through to the final and plays for that jackpot
0:32:30 > 0:32:32for their charities. Best of luck to both pairs.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34Our third question concerns...
0:32:38 > 0:32:40Books Set In The Future. Richard.
0:32:40 > 0:32:42We're going to show you five books set wholly or mainly in the future,
0:32:42 > 0:32:45but we're only going to show you the number of letters in each word
0:32:45 > 0:32:48of their name. Can you work out what books we're referring to?
0:32:48 > 0:32:51Very best of luck. Whichever team gives us the most obscure answer
0:32:51 > 0:32:54is playing for the jackpot. Thanks very much indeed.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57Let's reveal our five books set in the future, and here they are.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59ALEXANDER READS NAMES
0:33:10 > 0:33:12I'll read those one last time.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25It's over to you, Kate and Richard, to start.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27THEY WHISPER
0:33:29 > 0:33:30Go for it.
0:33:30 > 0:33:34We're going for Suzanne Collins, The Hunger Games,
0:33:34 > 0:33:36hoping that people know The Hunger Games,
0:33:36 > 0:33:39but not necessarily it was Suzanne Collins who penned...
0:33:39 > 0:33:42OK, The Hunger Games. Now, Matthew and Fern,
0:33:42 > 0:33:44talk us through as many of the others as you can.
0:33:44 > 0:33:48Aldous Huxley I think is Brave New World.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50HG Wells is The Time Machine. So...
0:33:50 > 0:33:53Brave New World? I think so, yes.
0:33:53 > 0:33:57Brave New World. OK. So we have The Hunger Games and Brave New World.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59Kate and Richard said The Hunger Games. Let's see if that's right
0:33:59 > 0:34:02for Suzanne Collins and, if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:34:04 > 0:34:05It's right.
0:34:05 > 0:34:09It's not going to be very low, is it?
0:34:09 > 0:34:10It's going down...
0:34:10 > 0:34:12Look at that - 6!
0:34:12 > 0:34:14FERN: Well done!
0:34:15 > 0:34:166 for The Hunger Games.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19I think your hunch was absolutely right there.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22Now, Matthew and Fern, you have to beat that with Brave New World.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25Is it right? How many people said Brave New World?
0:34:27 > 0:34:28It's right.
0:34:33 > 0:34:35Oh, 22!
0:34:35 > 0:34:38A good answer.
0:34:38 > 0:34:41But, I'm afraid, didn't score as low as Kate and Richard.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43Kate and Richard, after three questions,
0:34:43 > 0:34:46you are through to the final, 2-1.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48I think the instinct was exactly right. I think the Suzanne Collins
0:34:48 > 0:34:51thing would have thrown a lot of people, so it's a very good answer.
0:34:51 > 0:34:53There's an answer that would have beaten it.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56It's not the Richard Bachman book. That's the pseudonym of Stephen King
0:34:56 > 0:34:59and it was The Running Man.
0:34:59 > 0:35:00Would have scored you 8 points.
0:35:00 > 0:35:04The one at the bottom, you're right, was The Time Machine. HG Wells.
0:35:04 > 0:35:08Quite a big scorer as well. 30, so the biggest scorer there.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10This other one is the best answer.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Also made into a film, like a lot of his books. The Minority Report.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16The Minority Report. CONTESTANTS: Ooh!
0:35:16 > 0:35:18Would have scored you 1 point.
0:35:18 > 0:35:22Very well done if you said that at home. Thank you, Richard.
0:35:22 > 0:35:26So the pair leaving us - I'm afraid it's Matthew and Fern.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28Congratulations.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Listen, let's have some applause for these marvellous people.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34Please come back and play again. APPLAUSE
0:35:34 > 0:35:36Very well done indeed.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39For Kate and Richard, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:35:42 > 0:35:45Congratulations, Kate and Richard, you've seen off all the competition
0:35:45 > 0:35:48and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy, so very well done.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58You now have a chance to win our jackpot for your charities.
0:35:58 > 0:36:03At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at ?3,000.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05That would be great, wouldn't it?
0:36:05 > 0:36:09You so deserve to win that jackpot. You've played so well.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12You have been absolutely fantastic the whole way through.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15As always, you get to choose your category for this last round.
0:36:15 > 0:36:19There will be four options. Let's see what today's choices are.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32That was the year we started working together,
0:36:32 > 0:36:34the year 2000. Was it? Yeah.
0:36:34 > 0:36:38I remember the comet in the sky and now I know what it was for.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40Shall we go for The Year 2000 out of nostalgia
0:36:40 > 0:36:43and fondness for each other? Let's do it. Yeah.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45And since you're still sporting the same haircut.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47This is true!
0:36:47 > 0:36:49OK, The Year 2000 it is.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52Stay with what works. OK. Yeah.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55OK, three very different categories.
0:36:55 > 0:36:58We're looking for the name of any player who made an on-field
0:36:58 > 0:37:01appearance for England in the European Championships 2000.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03Oh! That's only one!
0:37:03 > 0:37:06Or we're looking for the name of anyone, according to IMDB,
0:37:06 > 0:37:09credited for acting in the film Gladiator.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11So any actors in Gladiator.
0:37:11 > 0:37:15Or we're looking for any act who had a UK number one album
0:37:15 > 0:37:17in the year 2000. Very best of luck.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Thank you, Richard.
0:37:19 > 0:37:21Now, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers,
0:37:21 > 0:37:25and all you need to win that jackpot for your charities is for just
0:37:25 > 0:37:27one of those answers to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:37:27 > 0:37:29Yes. Not really.
0:37:29 > 0:37:33Good, let's put 60 seconds on the clock. Your time starts now.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35We had Joaquin Phoenix.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38Joaquin Phoenix. Obviously, Russell. Russell Crowe.
0:37:38 > 0:37:42Um...the mother was really famous and I can't think of her name.
0:37:42 > 0:37:43Beautiful actress.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47Oh! Can't go beyond those two.
0:37:47 > 0:37:52OK. Um...UK number one albums, 2000...
0:37:52 > 0:37:54Millennium year.
0:37:55 > 0:38:01Are we back in the year of Blur and things like that? I can't remember!
0:38:01 > 0:38:04Um... HE MIMICS SYNTH BEAT
0:38:04 > 0:38:07The Only Way Is Up, was it that?
0:38:07 > 0:38:09No. Is that earlier? Much earlier.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11OK. You've shaved so many years off your age.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14I know, I can't remember how old I am or where I am. Um...
0:38:18 > 0:38:21UK number one albums of 2000. Can you think of a compilation album?
0:38:21 > 0:38:24What...? Ten seconds left.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26Uh...like, um...
0:38:26 > 0:38:28Uh, uh...Songs Of The Century.
0:38:28 > 0:38:29Songs Of The Century?
0:38:29 > 0:38:32Do you want to give it a go? It's the acts we're looking for.
0:38:32 > 0:38:33Oh, so not a compilation album.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36OK, and I'm afraid that is your time up.
0:38:36 > 0:38:38I know need three answers from you.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41Joaquin Phoenix for Gladiator. Yeah.
0:38:41 > 0:38:46Um...Westlife. Let's go for Westlife. OK, Westlife.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48And third answer? Do you want to pick another album, quickly?
0:38:48 > 0:38:512000? I can't remember what I was doing in the year 2000.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54Robbie Williams. OK, there we are. Of those three, which do you think
0:38:54 > 0:38:56is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:56 > 0:38:58Just so we can put them in the right order.
0:38:58 > 0:39:01Joaquin Phoenix. Joaquin Phoenix we'll put last.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03Least likely to be pointless?
0:39:03 > 0:39:06Probably Rob... Robbie Williams. Robbie Williams.
0:39:06 > 0:39:08Ron Williams. Perfect.
0:39:08 > 0:39:13Let's put those answers up on the board in that order, then, and here they are. We've got...
0:39:13 > 0:39:17Robbie Williams, Westlife, Joaquin Phoenix.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19Very, very best of luck.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22Now, your first answer, the one you thought was probably least likely
0:39:22 > 0:39:24to be pointless, was Robbie Williams.
0:39:24 > 0:39:28Let's just imagine a world in which one of these answers is pointless
0:39:28 > 0:39:30and you would win that jackpot for your charities.
0:39:30 > 0:39:32What are your charities? Kate?
0:39:32 > 0:39:34Save The Children. Amazing charity.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Absolutely right. Perfect, brilliant charity.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39Richard, what about you? Haven House Hospice,
0:39:39 > 0:39:40which is a hospice for children.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43Very good. Two excellent charities.
0:39:43 > 0:39:45APPLAUSE
0:39:45 > 0:39:48Let us hope one of these answers behind me
0:39:48 > 0:39:52will somehow net you that jackpot so you can give it to them.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55Your first answer was Robbie Williams. In this case we were
0:39:55 > 0:39:56looking for albums of 2000.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:39:58 > 0:40:01If it's pointless, it'll win you ?3,000.
0:40:04 > 0:40:05It's right!
0:40:05 > 0:40:08Bit of a last-minute entry, that Robbie Williams,
0:40:08 > 0:40:10but it turns out to be correct.
0:40:10 > 0:40:12Down it goes, through the 20s.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15If this goes down to zero you leave with ?3,000.
0:40:15 > 0:40:187! Not bad at all. There we go. Not bad.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22But not good enough.
0:40:22 > 0:40:25Only two more shots at today's jackpot. Your second answer
0:40:25 > 0:40:28looks like another very promising answer. Does it?
0:40:28 > 0:40:29Don't you think?
0:40:29 > 0:40:32If you only had 100 seconds you might just suddenly maybe
0:40:32 > 0:40:36forget Westlife. Maybe. I could never forget Westlife.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39Fair enough. It has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42Let's find out, for ?3,000, how many people said Westlife.
0:40:45 > 0:40:49Well, it also is correct. Robbie Williams took us down to 7.
0:40:49 > 0:40:52Westlife is now taking us down through the 30s into the 20s,
0:40:52 > 0:40:55into the teens. Will it go into single figures?
0:40:55 > 0:40:57Oh, no, it won't. 11.
0:40:57 > 0:41:00Wasn't bad. Wasn't bad.
0:41:00 > 0:41:017 and 11.
0:41:01 > 0:41:05OK. Everything's now riding on your third and final answer,
0:41:05 > 0:41:08which is Joaquin Phoenix.
0:41:08 > 0:41:12We were looking for cast members of Gladiator.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15You gotta hope this is pointless. If it is it'll win you ?3,000
0:41:15 > 0:41:18for your charity. Let's find out how many people said Joaquin Phoenix.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23It's right!
0:41:23 > 0:41:26Your first answer, Robbie Williams, took us down to 7.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29Your second answer, Westlife, took us down to 11.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32Joaquin Phoenix now taking us down through the teens...
0:41:32 > 0:41:35Not quite! I'm so sorry! Nearly. Nearly.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37Much less than you'd imagine. Yeah.
0:41:37 > 0:41:41Three good answers there, three low scores. Yeah.
0:41:41 > 0:41:45You didn't manage to find that vital pointless answer that we needed,
0:41:45 > 0:41:47so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of ?3,000
0:41:47 > 0:41:49for your charities.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52However, we're going to donate ?500 to each celebrity pair
0:41:52 > 0:41:55for their respective charities. Lovely. Thanks very much. Thank you.
0:41:55 > 0:41:57We've really loved having you on the show.
0:41:57 > 0:41:59You have been brilliant from start to finish.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02And you get to take home a Pointless trophy.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04Very well done indeed. Thank you for having us. Thank you.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06APPLAUSE Thank you.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11Very well played. It's been a terrific show from everybody
0:42:11 > 0:42:15and you're worthy winners. Let's take a look at the pointless answers.
