0:01:09 > 0:01:12- Four years ago.- Very happy. - And we're very happy to be here.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14APPLAUSE
0:01:17 > 0:01:18Couple number three.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Cymraes ydw i. Dwi'n siarad Cymraeg.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25Fy enw ydy Nerys Hughes o'r Liver Birds.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31I can't speak Welsh, I'll just speak English.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34I'm Jeremy Dyson, I'm a writer.
0:01:39 > 0:01:40And finally, couple number four.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43My name is Paul Harman Elliott, I'm one of the Chuckle Brothers.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45- You're not?! - I am.
0:01:45 > 0:01:46- You're not?! - I am.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47- Are you?- Yes, I am.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49And I don't know what I do for a living.
0:01:49 > 0:01:50Neither do I.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53I'm Barry David Elliott and I'm one of the Chuckle Brothers.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55- Yes.- The main one.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02These are today's contestants. Thank you very much.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04We'll find out more about you throughout the show.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09He crosses the Ts, he dots the Is, and he shouts at the Ws,
0:02:09 > 0:02:10don't know what he's got against Ws,
0:02:10 > 0:02:12it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Hiya. Evening.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19- Oh, good evening to you. - And to you.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21- How are you?- I'm very well, thank you.- Excellent.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24I always think it's not really a real episode of Pointless Celebrities
0:02:24 > 0:02:27- if the Chuckle Brothers aren't on. - Couldn't agree more.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29It always makes me happy. Been on twice before.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32- They've actually won an episode of Pointless Celebrities.- They have.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35But then last time got knocked out in the first round.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37So inconsistency - very much your watchword.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40You never know what the Chuckle Brothers are going to do.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44But, Nerys, also been on before, on before with Martin Jarvis
0:02:44 > 0:02:46and now she's with Jeremy who calls himself a writer.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48I'd say he's probably one of the finest comic writers
0:02:48 > 0:02:51- of his generation.- Exactly that.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53- Well, thank you very much indeed, Richard.- Pleasure.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Now, as ever, all of today's questions
0:02:55 > 0:02:57have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:57 > 0:02:58Our contestants here are on the lookout
0:02:58 > 0:03:00for those all-important pointless answers,
0:03:00 > 0:03:02answers none of our 100 people gave.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Give us one of those and we'll add £250 to the jackpot.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Now, as today's show is a special celebrity edition,
0:03:07 > 0:03:10all these wonderful celebrities here are playing for a nominated charity.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14We will start off with the jackpot today of £2,500. There it is.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26So all you have to remember is that the pair with the highest score
0:03:26 > 0:03:28at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30So your job is to make sure you are not that pair.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34Very best of luck with that, our first category this evening is...
0:03:35 > 0:03:37..modern languages.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39- PAUL: Oh, dear, oh, dear. - NERYS: That's Welsh out then.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Modern languages.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:03:43 > 0:03:45who's going to go second?
0:03:45 > 0:03:47And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Names of countries in European languages. Richard.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02On each board we'll show you the names of seven countries
0:04:02 > 0:04:04in a foreign language, we tell you what language they're in.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07You just need to tell us what that country is, please.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09It's going to be seven on each board, 14 in all to have a go at at home.
0:04:09 > 0:04:1214 in all for Xander to be able to pronounce too.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15- SARCASTICALLY:- Brilliant. Thank you very much indeed.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18OK, so we're looking for the name in English of these countries.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Here's our first board of seven countries.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23And we've got...
0:04:23 > 0:04:26ALEXANDER READS OPTIONS
0:04:27 > 0:04:31Tjekkiet. As in, "Have you received your cheque yet?"
0:04:31 > 0:04:34ALEXANDER CONTINUES READING OPTIONS
0:04:41 > 0:04:42I'll read those one last time.
0:04:51 > 0:04:52There we go.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55- Nigel, it's lovely to have you here. - Well, it's lovely to be here.
0:04:55 > 0:04:59- We've done some work together. Cockroaches.- In Cockroaches.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01- You were playing the pervy doctor. - Yeah.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05And I was acting, as well, which was fun, as well. Fantastic.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08And I was playing Stevie Giggle, who's a cannibal,
0:05:08 > 0:05:12who's a cannibalistic comedian who's eaten his double-act partner.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15- ALEXANDER LAUGHS - NERYS: Don't get any ideas.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19Now, Nigel, when... I've got to ask you, back in The Young Ones,
0:05:19 > 0:05:20back in the days of The Young Ones,
0:05:20 > 0:05:23that hair...is that yours?
0:05:23 > 0:05:24- It was a wig. - It was a wig.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28What we used to do is part my hair and gel it.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31So there was a bit of the wig missing down the middle.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35So you'd put it on and it would look like real hair
0:05:35 > 0:05:38because you could see my scalp right through to the back.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40- It was brilliant. - It was a very good wig.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43- I love The Young Ones so much. - A very good wig.- Oh, it was fun.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Now, what are you going to
0:05:45 > 0:05:46go for on this board?
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Just do feel free to take your time
0:05:47 > 0:05:48it's always tough
0:05:48 > 0:05:50on that first podium there.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Well, the hardest one is Wlochy.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55I've no idea where that would be.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59I'm going to go for Alemania, the Spanish one
0:05:59 > 0:06:01and I'm going to say that's Germany.
0:06:01 > 0:06:02Alemania, Germany says Nigel.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03Let's see if it's right.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Let's see how many of our 100 people said Germany.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09It's right.
0:06:13 > 0:06:1528, not bad.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17I didn't even understand the question.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Gets us off to a good start. 28 for Germany.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Well played, Nigel, very good start on that first podium.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25There's a museum in Berlin that's dedicated to sausages.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- Oh.- It's quite nice, isn't it? They've got sniffing stations,
0:06:28 > 0:06:30where you can sniff different sausages.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32They've got a sausage sofa where you can relax.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- Sausage sofa? - A sausage sofa.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38- Those Germans, hey?- Yeah.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41Kevin, Welcome. Now, we have a fledgling double act, don't we?
0:06:41 > 0:06:44We, we are doing Danger Mouse, aren't we?
0:06:44 > 0:06:45We are.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48We've been recording some episodes
0:06:48 > 0:06:50and the only thing that we've changed about the voices
0:06:50 > 0:06:51is the way the characters sound.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Yes...
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Because you took quite a daring one,
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- you've gone for quite a sort of... - Oi, oi, Danger Mouse.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Danger Mouse.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02- Which we like.- That sounds good.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04That's good, I just make hamster noises,
0:07:04 > 0:07:07just squeak and whistle. Oi, oi, Penfold.
0:07:07 > 0:07:12# How you doing there Mr Danger Mouse? #
0:07:12 > 0:07:14That's it. APPLAUSE
0:07:16 > 0:07:19- Now, then, Kevin.- Yes? - These languages.
0:07:19 > 0:07:20I don't know,
0:07:20 > 0:07:21there's one that I would risk.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23But I don't know for certain
0:07:23 > 0:07:24and I don't really want to risk
0:07:24 > 0:07:26that 100 so I'm going to go for one
0:07:26 > 0:07:28that I think would probably be
0:07:28 > 0:07:29quite high-scoring
0:07:29 > 0:07:30and I think I will go
0:07:30 > 0:07:33for Frankreich in German is France.
0:07:33 > 0:07:34Frankreich. France.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35Let's see if that's right
0:07:35 > 0:07:38and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said France.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44It's right. 28, our only score at the moment.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Oh, 47 for Frankreich.
0:07:48 > 0:07:49Could have been lower.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Oh, they're happy on the first podium there.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Love that on the first podium.
0:07:53 > 0:07:54Perfectly good answer, though,
0:07:54 > 0:07:55and better to not take a risk
0:07:55 > 0:07:57if you're not sure.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Yeah, France. The most popular country in the world for tourists.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Over 80 million a year.- Is it? - Yeah, are you having a pop at that?
0:08:03 > 0:08:06I'm not having a pop at that. It's quite nice...
0:08:06 > 0:08:08It's quite nice, France, it has to be said.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12Uh, Jeremy. Welcome. The writer of several books now.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14How many novels have you written?
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Well, one novel that's properly a novel
0:08:16 > 0:08:18and three books of short stories.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21And you've written a brilliant play, ghost stories.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Your job, I'd say, is about the most selfless job there is
0:08:24 > 0:08:27cos you sit there and you craft these beautiful gags
0:08:27 > 0:08:29for other people to go and get all the glory for.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Oh, but there's an enormous pleasure in watching people
0:08:31 > 0:08:33such as yourself bring those gags to life.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Cos Jeremy did Armstrong And Miller, as well.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Oh, I'm...well, as a writer...what's it like writing for Ben Miller?
0:08:39 > 0:08:40It must be amazing.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44When you're writing, sometimes some performers
0:08:44 > 0:08:46will make what you write slightly worse,
0:08:46 > 0:08:49and some will make it sing in a way you don't think it can.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52And Ben is in the second category cos you write stuff, you just think,
0:08:52 > 0:08:53"Oh, I don't know."
0:08:53 > 0:08:55And then he comes out and he does his stuff and all that.
0:08:55 > 0:09:00And Xander...solid. You write him a joke, he'll read it out, fine.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Camera looks at him, everybody's happy. Ben is just...
0:09:04 > 0:09:08But it's like magic dust, isn't it? What he does.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09Yeah, yeah.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12It's very interesting that, like with the new Danger Mouse.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Because you're very good.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16You're absolutely solid as a rock
0:09:16 > 0:09:19but Kevin...is amazing.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25My God, I'm not being funny but you in your career have been so lucky.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Well, actually, that really is true. Yeah. Not wrong there.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:09:34 > 0:09:35- Jeremy.- Yes.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Well, it's tempting
0:09:37 > 0:09:39to take a risk...
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Are you tempted by Wlochy there?
0:09:41 > 0:09:42No, I went there
0:09:42 > 0:09:43and I couldn't even say it
0:09:43 > 0:09:45but Tjekkiet I'm tempted by.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47I'm going to take the risk,
0:09:47 > 0:09:49live a bit, I'm going to say Turkey.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Turkey. OK, Turkey says Jeremy,
0:09:51 > 0:09:53let's see if that's right for Tjekkiet
0:09:53 > 0:09:56and if it is let's see how many people said it.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Oh, no!
0:10:00 > 0:10:03- Oh, dear, oh, dear. - Oh, Jeremiah.
0:10:03 > 0:10:07- I let you down.- Jeremiah. - I've let you down.- No, you haven't.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09- I'm afraid an incorrect answer.- Oh.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- An incorrect answer there scores you 100.- And he's so clever.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- Yeah, you say that. - Not so clever now.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19No, that's genuine unlucky. Good risk to go for.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21I would have said 23 people on our poll made the same mistake,
0:10:21 > 0:10:23went for the same thing.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Thank you very much indeed.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Now, Barry.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- Yes.- Oh, Barry, welcome back. Lovely to have you.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32You were finalists last time...winners the first time.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Oh, yes.- Then you came back, round one.- Round one.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37How did you pass the blame between you? Was it to me, to you?
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Well, it was Paul's fault, yeah, it was to him.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42- It wasn't, it was you.- No, it's you. It wasn't to me, it was to you.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Oh, dear, oh, dear. No, no, it wasn't.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Oh, dear. Now, listen, I want to hear about this.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50So you're doing this charity single with Tinchy Stryder.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52- Oh, yes.- I haven't heard it, have you heard it?- Yeah.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54It's very good. It's actually very good.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57- I bet it is.- It's for a great charity...- It is, yeah.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- Isn't it?- It is.- ACLT, Afro-Caribbean Leukaemia Trust.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04And it's a fabulous charity and it's really doing well at the moment.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07- Pleased to say. - Well done, that's fantastic.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15- But, now, back to the job in hand, Barry.- Down to it.- Come on.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Yes, I was going to go for Tjekkiet,
0:11:17 > 0:11:18only I was going to say
0:11:18 > 0:11:20the Czech Republic for that one
0:11:20 > 0:11:22but now what I'm going to go for
0:11:22 > 0:11:24is Svizzera
0:11:24 > 0:11:26which I think is Switzerland.
0:11:26 > 0:11:27Switzerland says Barry.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29Let's see if it is right
0:11:29 > 0:11:31and if it is, let's see how many people said Switzerland.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- It's right.- Oh.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38- Oh.- 65.- 65, oh, dear.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40No, that did everything you needed it to do, Barry.
0:11:40 > 0:11:45Good, safe, sure-footed answer there. Not a bad answer at all.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47- Best place in the world to be born, they say.- Oh, is it?
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Yeah, Switzerland.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53Now, Jeremy, Tjekkiet, which, as a writer, you went for
0:11:53 > 0:11:56because the word sounds like Turkey but outwitted,
0:11:56 > 0:11:58not for the first time in your life by Barry Chuckle.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01You're absolutely right, Barry. It's Czech Republic.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Oh, dear. Should have gone for it.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05A terrific answer, would have scored you five points.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08Well done if you said that at home, unlucky if you said Turkey.
0:12:08 > 0:12:12- Barbade is...- Barbados.- Barbados, yeah.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14That would have scored you 44.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16- Estados Unidos.- United States.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Actually quite a low scorer, that one.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Worth going for - 38.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24And the best answer on the board, Wlochy - it is Italy.
0:12:24 > 0:12:25OTHERS: Oh.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28And would've scored you one point. One point.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Thanks very much indeed. We're halfway through the round,
0:12:30 > 0:12:32let's take a look at those scores.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Nigel. Best score of the round was yours, very well done indeed.
0:12:35 > 0:12:3828 puts you and Doon in a very strong position at this stage
0:12:38 > 0:12:43Then up to Kevin who scored 47, very well done indeed, Frankreich
0:12:43 > 0:12:45and up to the Chuckle Brothers over there.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48Barry on 65, well done. Very good indeed.
0:12:48 > 0:12:52And Jeremy, you know, that was a good answer.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54But I'm sorry, it was an incorrect answer.
0:12:54 > 0:12:55We'll come back down the line now.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:13:01 > 0:13:04OK, let's put seven more hard-to-pronounce countries up
0:13:04 > 0:13:06on the board and here they come...
0:13:07 > 0:13:09READS OPTIONS
0:13:27 > 0:13:29REPEATS OPTIONS
0:13:34 > 0:13:36There we go. Paul.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40Paul, I mean, how much of the time do you spend together? I mean...
0:13:40 > 0:13:43- As little as possible. - Most of the year, isn't it?
0:13:43 > 0:13:46In a year, I mean, how much of your time, would you say?
0:13:46 > 0:13:50- I would say seven, eight months at least.- Would you?
0:13:50 > 0:13:52- That's knocking off the... - It seems longer than that.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54- It seems ten times longer, yes. - I think it's lovely.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56To be able to work with your brother that closely,
0:13:56 > 0:13:59it's not every brotherly relationship
0:13:59 > 0:14:01that would survive and thrive.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02It isn't, really.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05- I know a few butcher shops where brothers work together.- Do they?
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Yeah. And a bus driver I know has got a brother that's on the buses.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10- And they survive? - But not on the same bus.
0:14:10 > 0:14:11And a couple of footballers I know.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Well, there we are. OK, Paul.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15What are you going to go for on this board?
0:14:15 > 0:14:17I'll go for the French,
0:14:17 > 0:14:18I'll go for Sweden.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21You're going to say Sweden for Suede. Sweden for Suede.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23You have a red line coming in and there it is.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27If you can get below that red line, you are through to the next round.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Let's see how many of our 100 people said Sweden.
0:14:32 > 0:14:33It's right.
0:14:36 > 0:14:37- Oh. - 55.
0:14:40 > 0:14:44That opens the door for Nerys there. Takes your total up to 120.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47Pretty big score, not the worst score you could've got, though.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50They drink twice as much coffee as the average in the EU, the Swedes.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52- Don't think of them as coffee drinkers, do you?- No.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58Now, Nerys, let's just talk about The Liver Birds, for goodness sake.
0:14:58 > 0:14:59- Sandra in The Liver Birds.- Yes.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01So how did that come about?
0:15:01 > 0:15:04- What was the background? Had you worked with Carla before?- No.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07I played Jimmy Bolan's girlfriend a couple of episodes
0:15:07 > 0:15:11in Likely Lads and the same producer, Syd Lotterby,
0:15:11 > 0:15:14he asked me to be in it, so that was it.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18- 11 years, Alexander.- Yeah. - A long time.- A long time.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21But one of those sort of things, a bit like The Young Ones, actually,
0:15:21 > 0:15:24that sort of became a real cornerstone.
0:15:24 > 0:15:25- Now then, Nerys.- Yes.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26You have to score 19 or less.
0:15:26 > 0:15:2719 or less.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29I mean, I can see about two
0:15:29 > 0:15:30or three obvious ones.
0:15:30 > 0:15:31I think I'm going to have to go...
0:15:31 > 0:15:32Just take a step back.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Live dangerously.
0:15:34 > 0:15:35And take a deep breath.
0:15:35 > 0:15:36OK.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Lithuania, Germany.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Litauen, Lithuania.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43Now, here's your red line.
0:15:43 > 0:15:44Oh, you're looking worried.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46I've no idea, I don't know the scores.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48- Oh, I see.- I think that's a great answer.- Do you?
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Yeah, I mean, I was worried about how low your red line is,
0:15:50 > 0:15:51but that's OK.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53It's not that low.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55THEY LAUGH
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Lithuania, you have to get below that with Lithuania.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Let's see if you can. Please, can you?
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Let's see how many people said Lithuania.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04It's 100.
0:16:04 > 0:16:05- It's right.- Oh!
0:16:07 > 0:16:08Still going down.
0:16:08 > 0:16:09- Oh, no!- Oh, no!
0:16:09 > 0:16:11- 47.- We're out.
0:16:14 > 0:16:1647. Takes your total up to 147.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20There is a world in which you could survive.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24It involves Adil very obligingly getting something wrong.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26LAUGHTER
0:16:26 > 0:16:2747 points for Lithuania.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30According to Lonely Planet, it's the third best place
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- to visit in the world.- Thank you very much indeed.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35- Now, Adil.- Yes. - Welcome to Pointless.- Thank you.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38- Great to have you here. Citizen Khan.- Yes.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40Been a huge success.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Yeah, it's done very well, I think, yeah.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44- Yeah, well, many, many congratulations.- Thank you.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47And how much of your year does that take up?
0:16:47 > 0:16:48Pretty much quite a lot of it.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50I'm a bit of a control freak, it's fair to say.
0:16:50 > 0:16:51I get involved in almost everything.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53That's how good comedies come about, though.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55You have to be a bit of a control freak.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58- But also you've been making documentaries, as well.- Yes.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01- Do you enjoy that?- I do, yeah. I quite enjoy doing the documentaries.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03Probably not as enjoyable as the comedy, obviously, but...
0:17:03 > 0:17:06- Quite important to stretch yourself a bit.- Absolutely.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09One's a good sort of holiday from the other, I suppose.
0:17:09 > 0:17:10Yes, absolutely.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12So there you are on 47.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15- If you can score 99 or less.- Yes.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19The fourth one along,
0:17:19 > 0:17:21the German for Egypt.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23OK. Agypten. OK.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Here comes your red line.
0:17:25 > 0:17:26Look how high that is.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29Get below that with Egypt and you are in the next round.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31Good luck, Nerys and Jeremy.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33THEY LAUGH
0:17:33 > 0:17:35"Oh, jeopardy!"
0:17:36 > 0:17:39- Is it right? How many people said it?- Come on, come on.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41Come on!
0:17:41 > 0:17:44It's right, it's right.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45Through you go.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49- 42 for Egypt. - APPLAUSE
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Takes your total up to 89.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55Actually scored fewer points than Lithuania.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56- Interesting.- Yeah.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Thank you. Doon, welcome to Pointless.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01I tell you something I know about you, Doon,
0:18:01 > 0:18:04is you love nothing more than swimming in cold water.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07Now, that is true. I am a swimming bore, yes. I do.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09So I will swim in the sea all year-round, in rivers,
0:18:09 > 0:18:11puddles, anything.
0:18:11 > 0:18:12- Lidos.- Lidos.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14But you have swum in the Arctic, in the ice.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Yeah, they cut a square out of the Baltic Sea
0:18:17 > 0:18:19and we just swam 25 metres and you start fast
0:18:19 > 0:18:22and then you slow up as you gradually get hypothermia
0:18:22 > 0:18:23and then someone pulls you out the other end.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26I've been addicted ever since, ladies and gentlemen.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30I just can't stop swimming in cold water.
0:18:30 > 0:18:31Doon, this board is all yours.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Talk us through it.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Because I just love the name Uusi-Seelanti,
0:18:36 > 0:18:38it's like Haile Selassie
0:18:38 > 0:18:39or something,
0:18:39 > 0:18:42I think this might be
0:18:42 > 0:18:44the United States of America.
0:18:44 > 0:18:45OK, no red line for you
0:18:45 > 0:18:46for the lovely reason
0:18:46 > 0:18:47you're already through.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Let's see if Uusi-Seelanti is the United States.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56- As it happens, it's not. - Oh, that's a horrible noise!
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- Noise of despair. - Jeremy, let's hold hands.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02Uusi-Seelanti, not the United States.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Scores you 100 points, takes your total up 128,
0:19:04 > 0:19:06but you're through so it's fine.
0:19:06 > 0:19:07It's all fine.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10They're quite hard, some of these. I thought it might be Iceland.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12It was only when I was reading it for the second time,
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Seelanti.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16- Yeah.- There's your clue.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19- New Zealand.- It is New Zealand. Yep.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Would have scored 4 points so a terrific answer.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23Danimarca is Denmark, of course.
0:19:23 > 0:19:24Only would've scored you 36.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Would have been a very good answer.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29Chorvatsko is very similar to its name in its own language
0:19:29 > 0:19:31and it is Croatia.
0:19:31 > 0:19:32Best answer on the board, 2 points.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34And Paesi Bassi.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36- Netherlands. - It's the Netherlands, yeah.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39The French call it Pays-Bas, the Italians call it Paesi Bassi.
0:19:39 > 0:19:417 points for that.
0:19:41 > 0:19:42Thank you very much indeed.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Well, at the end of our first round,
0:19:44 > 0:19:46I'm very, very sorry to say, Nerys...
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Nerys, you've done half as well as you did last time.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52I know! I know!
0:19:52 > 0:19:54You've been very successful in getting out.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57This is criminal to be letting you go so soon.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Nerys and Jeremy, wonderful contestants.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02APPLAUSE
0:20:02 > 0:20:04But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10So we're down to three pairs.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13At the end of this round we have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:20:13 > 0:20:14Very best of luck.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Our category for Round Two this evening is...
0:20:20 > 0:20:21Can you all decide in your pairs
0:20:21 > 0:20:23who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:20:24 > 0:20:26And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many
0:20:35 > 0:20:39celebrities on Who Do You Think You Are? as they could.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41Celebrities who featured on Who Do You Think You Are? Richard.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Yeah, there have been 11 series of the UK version
0:20:44 > 0:20:45of Who Do You Think You Are?
0:20:45 > 0:20:46Up to the end of October 2014.
0:20:46 > 0:20:50We're looking for the names of any of the 100 celebrities
0:20:50 > 0:20:52who've appeared on the show, please.
0:20:52 > 0:20:53Very best of luck.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56Thank you very much indeed.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59So, Doon, you watch Who Do You Think You Are?
0:20:59 > 0:21:02- I don't really watch television.- OK.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05- So, it's pick a celebrity then. - It is pick a celebrity.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07There's 100 to choose from.
0:21:07 > 0:21:08Joanna Lumley.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Joanna Lumley, says Doon.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13Joanna Lumley. Let's see if it's right.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Let's see how many of our 100 people said Joanna Lumley.
0:21:18 > 0:21:19No!
0:21:19 > 0:21:20Oh, but, Doon.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24That's shocking! Double disaster.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28Doon, I'm afraid Joanna Lumley, wrong answer.
0:21:28 > 0:21:29Scores you 100 points.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31- It feels like she has, doesn't it? - Doesn't it?
0:21:31 > 0:21:33But no. She'd be a very good one.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35- She would. Adil?- Mm.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38OK, I'm going to go with a friend of mine
0:21:38 > 0:21:39who's an actor on Eastenders
0:21:39 > 0:21:42and I'm pretty certain he's done it because I've seen it myself,
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Nitin Ganatra.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46- Nitin Ganatra. Nitin Ganatra.- Yes.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48OK, let's see if that's right
0:21:48 > 0:21:52and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Nitin Ganatra.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54It is right.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Ooh, wouldn't that be weird if it weren't?
0:21:59 > 0:22:00Down it goes.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Oh!
0:22:02 > 0:22:04APPLAUSE
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Now that, Adil, is a score. Look at that.
0:22:07 > 0:22:101 for Nitin Ganatra.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12That's a terrific answer, Adil. Very, very well played.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14As you say, Massood on Eastenders.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17- Been on Pointless Celebrities as well. Lovely fella.- Yeah.
0:22:17 > 0:22:18So, Paul.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Dear, oh, dear, oh, dear, again.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22I'm sorry, I don't watch the programme,
0:22:22 > 0:22:24but I'll try and guess for
0:22:24 > 0:22:27- Bill Oddie.- Bill Oddie, says Paul.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29- He should've been on it. - Bill Oddie.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31Oh, no, that's a great answer, I think.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33Let's find out. Maybe not.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Bill Oddie, is it right? How many people said it?
0:22:38 > 0:22:39It is right.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44It's right and it's still going down.
0:22:44 > 0:22:464, very well done indeed, Paul!
0:22:46 > 0:22:49- Good answer. - APPLAUSE
0:22:49 > 0:22:50That's a tremendous answer.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54- That's a good guess, Paul. Well played.- Very good guess.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Well, we're halfway through the round.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58Let's take a look at those scores.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59What a great round...in some cases.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02LAUGHTER
0:23:02 > 0:23:04Adil, very well done. Adil and Kevin looking very strong.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Ditto Paul and Barry over there with 4.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09Then I'm afraid Doon and Nigel,
0:23:09 > 0:23:11who knows what's going to happen on the next pass?
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Who knows, but, Nigel, a really low score from you,
0:23:13 > 0:23:16and it would have to be really low, might keep you in the game,
0:23:16 > 0:23:17so best of luck with that.
0:23:17 > 0:23:18We'll come back down the line now.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:23:23 > 0:23:26OK, now, Barry, remember we're looking for the name of any
0:23:26 > 0:23:29celebrity who has been the subject of a Who Do You Think You Are?
0:23:29 > 0:23:30You're on 4.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33If you could score 95 or less, you are in the head-to-head.
0:23:33 > 0:23:3495 or less.
0:23:34 > 0:23:3795 or less. Now, have you watched the show?
0:23:37 > 0:23:40I have watched a few times, yes. But I can't remember who was on it!
0:23:40 > 0:23:42- LAUGHTER - It's funny that, isn't it?
0:23:42 > 0:23:45- It's his age, you know. - It wasn't you, Richard, was it? No.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47I'm going to go for
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Alexander Armstrong.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52AUDIENCE CHEERS
0:23:52 > 0:23:55Alexander Armstrong, says Barry.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57- Now, there is your red line. - LAUGHTER
0:23:59 > 0:24:01If you get below that, you're through to the next round.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:24:03 > 0:24:05let's see how many of our 100 people said Alexander Armstrong.
0:24:08 > 0:24:09It's right, you're through.
0:24:14 > 0:24:15Oh!
0:24:15 > 0:24:162!
0:24:16 > 0:24:19APPLAUSE
0:24:19 > 0:24:21There you go, look at that!
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Takes your score up to 6.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27A very, very good answer. Also scores 2 fewer than Bill Oddie.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30Thanks very much indeed. Now, Kevin.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33- Don't watch it.- Kev... Ooh.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35- Nigel and Doon.- I don't watch it,
0:24:35 > 0:24:36but I did watch one recently
0:24:36 > 0:24:38and it has stuck in my mind
0:24:38 > 0:24:40because it was Brian Blessed.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42And it was entertaining
0:24:42 > 0:24:45because it was a litany of disasters all his past family history
0:24:45 > 0:24:48and every time a new disaster was announced,
0:24:48 > 0:24:51he would repeat it in a loud theatrical voice.
0:24:51 > 0:24:52So, "So then, I'm afraid, Brian,
0:24:52 > 0:24:54"they all had to go and work down the mines."
0:24:54 > 0:24:56"Work down the mines?!"
0:24:56 > 0:24:57LAUGHTER
0:24:57 > 0:24:59"Yes, and then they all died of consumption."
0:24:59 > 0:25:02"Died of consumption?!"
0:25:02 > 0:25:04LAUGHTER
0:25:04 > 0:25:05Let's see Brian Blessed.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08There's your red line, if you get below that with Brian Blessed,
0:25:08 > 0:25:10you're through to the head-to-head. Let's see if it's right.
0:25:12 > 0:25:13It's right.
0:25:18 > 0:25:2121 for Brian Blessed. Very well done indeed.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23Takes your total up to 22.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Well played, Kevin. Terrific answer again.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28You know you can get his voice now as a satnav?
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Oh, Lord, really? Oh, Lordy.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33Thanks very much indeed.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35Um, Nigel.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Nigel, I'm afraid you are the high scorers even before
0:25:38 > 0:25:41you've given your answer. I'm sorry.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Anyhow, let's have a nice low score from you.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45I will go for...
0:25:45 > 0:25:46David Baddiel.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48David Baddiel, says Nigel.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50No red line for you as you're the high scorers already,
0:25:50 > 0:25:54but let's see how many of our 100 people said David Baddiel.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57HE WHISPERS QUIETLY
0:26:01 > 0:26:03That's a good answer, down it goes!
0:26:03 > 0:26:04Pointless!
0:26:04 > 0:26:05Check it out!
0:26:05 > 0:26:08APPLAUSE
0:26:08 > 0:26:11That is a Pointless answer! It scores nothing for you.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14It adds £250 to today's jackpot.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17Takes the total up to £2,750.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19It leaves your total at 100 points.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21It was a terrific answer,
0:26:21 > 0:26:23it was a good episode, as well, David Baddiel's one.
0:26:23 > 0:26:24Very moving.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27There's lots of Pointless answers. Let's take a look at a few of them.
0:26:27 > 0:26:28These ones, you remember them.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Once you see the names, you remember the episodes.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42There's lots of others, actually.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44There's Alan Cumming, Alex Kingston, Alistair McGowan,
0:26:44 > 0:26:47Jeremy Irons, John Bishop, John Simpson, Julia Sawalha,
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Robin Gibb, Rupert Everett, Samantha Womack,
0:26:49 > 0:26:51William Roache, Zoe Wanamaker.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54- Lots and lots of pointless answers out there.- There you are.
0:26:54 > 0:26:55Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58So at the end of our second round, I'm sorry to say, Nigel and Doon,
0:26:58 > 0:27:00we have to say goodbye to you. I'm so sorry.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Anyway, listen, you're going to have to come back.
0:27:02 > 0:27:03Please come back and do it again.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06It's been lovely having you on the show, thank you so much.
0:27:06 > 0:27:07- Nigel and Doon.- Thank you.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10APPLAUSE
0:27:12 > 0:27:14But for Barry and Paul, and Adil and Kevin,
0:27:14 > 0:27:16it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22Congratulations, Adil and Kevin, Barry and Paul.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25You are now one step closer to the final and a chance to play
0:27:25 > 0:27:30for our jackpot for your charities which currently stands at £2,750.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33APPLAUSE
0:27:33 > 0:27:36So this is the round where we decide who goes through to the final
0:27:36 > 0:27:39and plays for that jackpot and we do that by making you go head-to-head.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41The big difference is you're now allowed to chat
0:27:41 > 0:27:43before you give your answer so you can confer fully
0:27:43 > 0:27:45and the first player to win two questions
0:27:45 > 0:27:46will be playing for that jackpot.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48This will be close. Best of luck to both players.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50Let's play the head-to-head.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57So, here is your first question.
0:27:57 > 0:27:58And it concerns...
0:28:02 > 0:28:04Apes & Monkeys. Richard.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06I'm going to show you five apes and monkeys.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08You just need to tell us what they are.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11We'll give you some of the letters of their names to help you out.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Thanks very much. OK, let's reveal our five apes
0:28:13 > 0:28:15and monkeys and here they come. We've got...
0:28:26 > 0:28:27Bit embarrassed.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29RICHARD CHUCKLES
0:28:34 > 0:28:37ALEXANDER CHUCKLES
0:28:37 > 0:28:39There we go. Five primates.
0:28:39 > 0:28:41Now, then, Adil and Kevin,
0:28:41 > 0:28:44you have been our lowest scorers so far, so you will go first.
0:28:44 > 0:28:46- OK. Mm.- Mm.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48Yes, I think we'll go...
0:28:48 > 0:28:50D, proboscis monkey.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52Proboscis monkey for D.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54Proboscis monkey.
0:28:54 > 0:28:56Now then, Barry and Paul.
0:28:56 > 0:28:58All those other monkeys are yours. Talk us through them.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00Well, we know baboon.
0:29:00 > 0:29:02That's an easy one.
0:29:02 > 0:29:03Where's that one?
0:29:03 > 0:29:04E, got to be baboon.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07Correct, that's a baboon.
0:29:07 > 0:29:08I think A we go for, don't we?
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Is it... What is it?
0:29:10 > 0:29:12- Gibbon.- OK, gibbon. OK.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14Take that as a gibbon.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17OK, so we have proboscis monkey and we have gibbon.
0:29:17 > 0:29:21Adil and Kevin have gone for proboscis monkeys, D.
0:29:21 > 0:29:22Let's see if it's right and if it is,
0:29:22 > 0:29:25let's see how many of our 100 people said proboscis monkey.
0:29:27 > 0:29:28It is right.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37APPLAUSE
0:29:40 > 0:29:4319. Now, Barry and Paul have said gibbon for A.
0:29:43 > 0:29:45Let's see if that is right. And if it is, let's see how many
0:29:45 > 0:29:47of our 100 people said gibbon.
0:29:49 > 0:29:50It's right.
0:29:53 > 0:29:54Down it goes...
0:29:54 > 0:29:5630 for gibbon.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Not bad, though, not a bad score at all.
0:29:59 > 0:30:00Cute face, isn't it?
0:30:00 > 0:30:04Which means, after one question, Adil and Kevin, you are up 1-nil.
0:30:04 > 0:30:07- Yeah, good answer. Adil and Kevin are good, aren't they?- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10They are good. Um, B is the mountain gorilla.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12- Yes.- I said that, Barry.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15That would've scored you 45.
0:30:15 > 0:30:16It is a big old score.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20C... The letters look disconcerting,
0:30:20 > 0:30:21like Julianne Moore, but it's not.
0:30:21 > 0:30:26It's... LAUGHTER
0:30:26 > 0:30:28It is a Japanese macaque.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31Japanese macaque. Very well done if you said that.
0:30:31 > 0:30:32It would have scored you 3.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36And, you're right, the baboon was E.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39And the baboon would have scored you...
0:30:40 > 0:30:4264. 64 points.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44There we are. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46So here comes your second question.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48Barry and Paul, you get to answer this one first.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51You have to win it to stay in the game. So good luck with that.
0:30:51 > 0:30:52It concerns...
0:30:56 > 0:30:59- Oh, you're good at this. - TV Crime Fighters. Richard?
0:30:59 > 0:31:03We are going to now play you five theme tunes of shows with
0:31:03 > 0:31:05crime fighters in them.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08We just need you to tell us the name of the most obscure show, please.
0:31:08 > 0:31:12Brilliant. OK, so let's... Yes, let's play our pieces of music.
0:31:12 > 0:31:14And here they come. We have got...
0:32:50 > 0:32:53There we are, five pieces of crime-fighting music.
0:32:53 > 0:32:57Now then, Barry and Paul, what do you think?
0:32:57 > 0:33:01- A - The Avengers.- A - The Avengers, say Barry and Paul.
0:33:01 > 0:33:04A - The Avengers. Now, Adil and Kevin.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07We will guess at C
0:33:07 > 0:33:09as being The Bill.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12C - The Bill.
0:33:12 > 0:33:16We have A - The Avengers, C - The Bill.
0:33:16 > 0:33:17Barry and Paul said A was The Avengers.
0:33:17 > 0:33:21Let's see if that is right and how many people said The Avengers.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26Oh, Barry...
0:33:26 > 0:33:27What did I tell you? It was his fault.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30I'm afraid an incorrect answer, which means, Adil and Kevin,
0:33:30 > 0:33:32you merely have to be correct with The Bill,
0:33:32 > 0:33:33and you will go through to the next round.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36Let's see if that is right. C - The Bill.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40It's right. It's right.
0:33:40 > 0:33:43It has got a high score, but it did everything you needed it to do.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46- APPLAUSE - And it means, Adil and Kevin,
0:33:46 > 0:33:49after only two questions, you are through to the final 2-nil.
0:33:49 > 0:33:50Yeah, very well played.
0:33:50 > 0:33:53Let's take a listen to each of them and I'll say what they are.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57The Saint.
0:33:57 > 0:33:58The Saint is exactly right.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00It would have scored you 38 points.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02B was...
0:34:03 > 0:34:06- Midsummer Murders. - Midsummer Murders.
0:34:06 > 0:34:07You know all of them! Midsummer Murders,
0:34:07 > 0:34:09that would've scored you 42.
0:34:09 > 0:34:10Also would have seen you the point.
0:34:10 > 0:34:11And D...
0:34:12 > 0:34:14Twin Peaks?
0:34:14 > 0:34:15Let's have a little listen.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17What do we think this is?
0:34:17 > 0:34:19- ALL:- Twin Peaks. - Twin Peaks, exactly right.
0:34:19 > 0:34:20That would have scored you 30.
0:34:20 > 0:34:24And the hardest one of all, easily the lowest scorer, was E.
0:34:26 > 0:34:30Now, this is... You recognise it as it goes on, it is Stingray.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33- Aah!- Stingray, yeah.- It would have scored you 1 point.
0:34:33 > 0:34:34It would have scored you 1 point.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39So the pair leaving us at the end of this round,
0:34:39 > 0:34:41I'm sorry to say, Barry and Paul, it's you.
0:34:41 > 0:34:42Barry, you knew some of those.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45Yes, I did, but I thought they might be high scorers.
0:34:45 > 0:34:47I thought we'd go for the earlier one, but...
0:34:47 > 0:34:49- Oh, bad luck! - Then I remembered it was The Saint.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51You'll just have to come back. Thanks so much.
0:34:51 > 0:34:53Barry and Paul, wonderful as ever.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55APPLAUSE
0:34:57 > 0:35:00But for Adil and Kevin, it is now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06Congratulations, Adil and Kevin, you have seen off all
0:35:06 > 0:35:09the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12- So very well done. - Thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:19 > 0:35:20for your nominated charities.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23And at the end of today's show, we have actually managed to bump
0:35:23 > 0:35:25that jackpot up a little bit, courtesy of Nigel.
0:35:25 > 0:35:29It is now £2,750. There it is.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31APPLAUSE
0:35:33 > 0:35:36What a performance! Lovely low-scoring from you.
0:35:36 > 0:35:382-nil in the head-to-head, no arguing with that.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40You get to choose your category for this round.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42We put four up, let's hope there's something
0:35:42 > 0:35:44up on there that you quite like the look of.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46Here are this evening's choices. We've got...
0:35:49 > 0:35:52LAUGHTER
0:35:58 > 0:36:02- Oh, God!- The only one for me is... - Films?- Yeah, that is the only one.
0:36:02 > 0:36:05- All right, let's do that then. - Let's do that.- Yeah, we'll do that.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08Yeah, I think it is going to have to be Films With "The" In Their Titles.
0:36:08 > 0:36:11- Can't be many(!) - LAUGHTER
0:36:11 > 0:36:13Films With "The" In Their Titles, Richard.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15OK, you have got chances here, guys.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18We are looking for any film directed by...
0:36:28 > 0:36:32That is all according to IMDB up to the end of September 2014.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35As always, no short films, TV films, documentaries, anything like that.
0:36:35 > 0:36:36Very, very best of luck, guys.
0:36:36 > 0:36:38You've been terrific all the way through,
0:36:38 > 0:36:40let's hope it's a good jackpot round.
0:36:40 > 0:36:41OK, now, as always, you have got up
0:36:41 > 0:36:43to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46All you need to win that jackpot for your charities is for just
0:36:46 > 0:36:47one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:47 > 0:36:51- Are you ready?- No. - No, not at all.- No.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53That is a good tactic!
0:36:53 > 0:36:55I've never... No-one has ever done that before.
0:36:55 > 0:36:58Oh, I better wait till they are ready. Um...
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Are you ready NOW?
0:37:01 > 0:37:05- BOTH HESITANTLY:- Yeeeeessss...
0:37:05 > 0:37:07Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09And there they are. Your time starts now!
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Oh, God, right. Hitchcock, The Birds.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14- That is going to be really popular, right?- Really popular.
0:37:14 > 0:37:15Spielberg, The Color Purple.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18- The Color Purple, that is a good one.- Let's have that one.
0:37:18 > 0:37:21- Martin Scorsese...- Scorsese...
0:37:21 > 0:37:25- Oh, God! Um... The ET, is that one of his?- No, no.- That's not him.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28Scorsese, The...
0:37:30 > 0:37:33- What did Spielberg do?- Spielberg...
0:37:34 > 0:37:37- Oh, God, I can't think of any. - What are the Hitchcock ones?
0:37:37 > 0:37:40- 39 Steps...- 39. Is it The 39 Steps?
0:37:40 > 0:37:45- Or is it just 39? I think it is just 39.- Is it 39 Steps?
0:37:45 > 0:37:49- Oh, my God, we are so rubbish. - I know. Um...
0:37:49 > 0:37:50OK...
0:37:50 > 0:37:53- Oh, my God!- Hitchcock, Hitchcock, come on, come on...
0:37:53 > 0:37:54There has got to be...
0:37:54 > 0:37:57Martin Scorsese, what are some...?
0:37:57 > 0:38:00- Things with De Niro. - Ten seconds left.
0:38:00 > 0:38:03- Taxi Driver.- Um... Oh, no.
0:38:04 > 0:38:08- Goodfellas.- God! It has been so rubbish!
0:38:08 > 0:38:10Oh...
0:38:10 > 0:38:11That, I'm afraid, is your time up.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13OK, I now need three answers.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16And if you would just say which category it is you are answering in.
0:38:16 > 0:38:21OK, well, films directed by Steven Spielberg, we got one for that.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24- The Color Purple. - The Color Purple, very good.
0:38:24 > 0:38:28- Um...- Hitchcock, The Birds, but it is going to be so big.
0:38:28 > 0:38:31- We will have to say that. - We have to go with that.- The Birds.
0:38:31 > 0:38:35- Yes.- And... OK, rock'n'roll, come on, one more, one more!
0:38:35 > 0:38:38- The Duellists, was that...? - Yes, go with that!
0:38:38 > 0:38:41- I don't know, have a guess. - The Duellists.
0:38:41 > 0:38:42And this is by...?
0:38:42 > 0:38:44- Hitchcock? - The Duellists by Hitchcock.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46So we have three answers.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48We have The Color Purple.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50We have The Birds. And we have The Duellists.
0:38:50 > 0:38:55Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:55 > 0:38:58It's The Color Purple, I think. I'm hoping it is not Color Purple.
0:38:58 > 0:39:01- No, it is The Color Purple. - A Color Purple. The Color Purple.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03The Color Purple goes last.
0:39:03 > 0:39:04Least likely to be pointless?
0:39:04 > 0:39:07I think probably The Duellists.
0:39:07 > 0:39:11The Duellists. OK, The Duellists will go first.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13And The Birds in the middle.
0:39:13 > 0:39:14- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17Let's put those up on the board then in that order, and here they are.
0:39:17 > 0:39:18We've got...
0:39:23 > 0:39:26Well, three perfectly nice-looking answers up there,
0:39:26 > 0:39:29let's hope that at least one of them is pointless. If one of them is,
0:39:29 > 0:39:31it'll win that jackpot for your charities.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34- What are your charities? Adil? - Mine is Parkinson's UK.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36- And Kevin? - Mine is called Open Doors.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39It helps vulnerable women in the Hackney area.
0:39:39 > 0:39:40Very good. Very good indeed.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42Two excellent charities there, well done.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45APPLAUSE
0:39:45 > 0:39:47Let's hope one of those answers is pointless
0:39:47 > 0:39:50so you'll win that jackpot and you can share it between the charities.
0:39:50 > 0:39:51Fingers crossed.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55Now, The Duellists. We were looking for Alfred Hitchcock films.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58You have come up with The Duellists. Under duress, it has to be said.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00But who knows? Maybe it is pointless.
0:40:00 > 0:40:03For £2,750, let's see how many people named
0:40:03 > 0:40:05The Duellists as a Hitchcock film.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09No!
0:40:09 > 0:40:10I'm sorry.
0:40:10 > 0:40:11OK, not a pointless answer,
0:40:11 > 0:40:14which means you have two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:14 > 0:40:17Your second answer was The Birds, in this case,
0:40:17 > 0:40:18also a Hitchcock film.
0:40:18 > 0:40:22Let's see, for £2,750, how many of our 100 people said The Birds.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26It's right.
0:40:26 > 0:40:29Well, The Duellists... Oh! Dooey! Look at that!
0:40:29 > 0:40:3081 for The Birds.
0:40:32 > 0:40:33Oh, 81!
0:40:35 > 0:40:3781. But you still have one more answer.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39There it is, you put it last, The Color Purple,
0:40:39 > 0:40:41directed by Steven Spielberg.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44Let's find out how many of our 100 people said The Color Purple.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46For £2,750, is it pointless?
0:40:50 > 0:40:51It's right.
0:40:51 > 0:40:52So, your first answer,
0:40:52 > 0:40:54The Duellists, was incorrect.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56Your second answer, The Birds,
0:40:56 > 0:40:58scored 81 points.
0:40:58 > 0:40:59Your third and final answer,
0:40:59 > 0:41:00The Color Purple, taking us down
0:41:00 > 0:41:02through single figures, down it goes,
0:41:02 > 0:41:04down it goes... Oh, no!
0:41:04 > 0:41:05- 1!- What?!
0:41:05 > 0:41:10APPLAUSE
0:41:10 > 0:41:11What was that 1?!
0:41:13 > 0:41:16I am so sorry. 1, to be so close!
0:41:16 > 0:41:18- So close!- So close!
0:41:18 > 0:41:20A great answer there, but unfortunately,
0:41:20 > 0:41:23you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer.
0:41:23 > 0:41:26I'm afraid that means you don't win today's jackpot of £2,750.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29But as it is a celebrity special and each pair of celebrities
0:41:29 > 0:41:32is playing for a charity, we're going to donate £500
0:41:32 > 0:41:35to each celebrity pair for their respective charities.
0:41:35 > 0:41:36So there we are.
0:41:36 > 0:41:38APPLAUSE
0:41:38 > 0:41:41And a very solid, commendable performance throughout
0:41:41 > 0:41:44the whole show, so very, very well done. We've loved having you on.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46And you get to take home a Pointless trophy, so very well done.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49- Thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51APPLAUSE
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Terrific, really good performance from the start.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56Generally with those film rounds, you'll know a load of these films.
0:41:56 > 0:41:59During the 60 seconds, you mentioned The 39 Steps,
0:41:59 > 0:42:01a perfectly good answer. It would have scored you 4 points.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03So it would have just prolonged the agony.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06You were talking about Scorsese films with De Niro in it, and one of those
0:42:06 > 0:42:09is a pointless answer, and very aptly for today as well -
0:42:09 > 0:42:11- The King Of Comedy. - The King Of Comedy.
0:42:11 > 0:42:12The King Of Comedy, yeah.
0:42:12 > 0:42:15But let's take a look at the other Scorsese ones.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18Bringing Out The Dead with Nicholas Cage.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24And also The Age Of Innocence was a pointless answer.
0:42:24 > 0:42:26Let's take a look at Hitchcock.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28Slightly more obscure in this category.
0:42:31 > 0:42:33You also could've had The Farmer's Wife,
0:42:33 > 0:42:34The Girl Was Young, The Manxman,
0:42:34 > 0:42:37The Mountain Eagle, The Shame Of Mary Boyle and The Skin Game.
0:42:37 > 0:42:38Very well done if you said any of those.
0:42:38 > 0:42:41Now, Spielberg. There are some very big films here.
0:42:50 > 0:42:52You also could've had The Adventures Of Tintin,
0:42:52 > 0:42:55The Sugarland Express or Twilight Zone - The Movie.
0:42:55 > 0:42:58Very, very unlucky, guys. I know there are films there that you know.
0:42:58 > 0:43:01Some people at home would have got them. Congratulations if you did.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03But it is hard. Unlucky.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Unfortunately, we say goodbye
0:43:06 > 0:43:08to you, Adil and Kevin. It has been fantastic having you.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Thank you so much for playing so well.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12Adil and Kevin, great contestants!
0:43:12 > 0:43:14- APPLAUSE - Well done.
0:43:14 > 0:43:17Join us next time when we will be putting more obscure knowledge
0:43:17 > 0:43:18to the test on Pointless.
0:43:18 > 0:43:20- Meanwhile, it is goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:20 > 0:43:23And it is goodbye from me. Goodbye.
