0:00:23 > 0:00:25APPLAUSE

0:00:30 > 0:00:32of Pointless Celebrities, the show where the aim of the game
0:00:32 > 0:00:34is to find the most obscure answer possible.

0:00:41 > 0:00:42And couple number one.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17and I am with my dad.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
0:01:21 > 0:01:22Couple number three.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Well, I am with Christian Horner,
0:01:24 > 0:01:27who is the team principal of Red Bull, but maybe
0:01:27 > 0:01:29he would rather be the team principal of Mercedes right now.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31AUDIENCE: Oooh...
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Started well, that, hasn't it?
0:01:33 > 0:01:35We are getting on very well already.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39This is the only lady that can deal with Eddie Jordan
0:01:39 > 0:01:41and David Coulthard - Suzi Perry.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43APPLAUSE
0:01:45 > 0:01:47And finally, couple number four.
0:01:47 > 0:01:48I am David Coulthard.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50I am an ageing ex-racing driver and a proud member of
0:01:50 > 0:01:54the BBC Formula One coverage, along with Suzi and Allan,
0:01:54 > 0:01:57and occasionally Mark, and occasionally Nigel.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59And Murray is the legend!
0:01:59 > 0:02:02I am Mark Webber and I am currently driving for Porsche
0:02:02 > 0:02:05in the World Endurance Championship and also every now and again
0:02:05 > 0:02:07catching up with these guys in the BBC.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09APPLAUSE
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Thanks very much, all of you.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13We will find out more about all of you throughout the show as it
0:02:13 > 0:02:16goes along. That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18He is such an incredible machine,
0:02:18 > 0:02:21he once refuelled himself in a record 1.8 seconds.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard. Hiya.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Evening, everybody.
0:02:26 > 0:02:27APPLAUSE
0:02:29 > 0:02:30Wow, what a line-up.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33This is going to be super competitive, I think,
0:02:33 > 0:02:34our F1 special.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Because not only are they all sports people and very competitive people -
0:02:37 > 0:02:40they all work together, as well, so it is so much worse.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Someone is going to win. Someone is going to have to.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45As usual, all of today's questions have been
0:02:45 > 0:02:46put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Our contestants are looking for those all-important pointless answers -
0:02:49 > 0:02:52those being the answers that none of our 100 people gave.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Find one of those and we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Now, as today's show is a celebrity special and each of our contestants
0:02:59 > 0:03:01is playing for a nominated charity,
0:03:01 > 0:03:05we start off with a jackpot of ?2,500. There we are.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07APPLAUSE
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Right, if everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19OK. Now, all you have to remember is this - the pair with the highest
0:03:19 > 0:03:22score at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24You just have to make sure you don't have the highest score.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Go for those low scorers. You've got that, Nigel.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Mark is across that, so is David.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Remember also that there is no conferring in our first two rounds -
0:03:32 > 0:03:34you are on your own. Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Our first category this evening is...
0:03:38 > 0:03:41Cinema. Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:03:41 > 0:03:42who is going to go second?
0:03:42 > 0:03:45And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Films with US cities in their titles. Richard.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00On each board we are going to show you the names of seven films.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02We have missed out a word from each of those films
0:04:02 > 0:04:05and that word in each case is the name of a US city.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Can you find the most obscure of those, please?
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Seven on the first board, seven on the second,
0:04:09 > 0:04:1114 in all to have a go at at home. Very best of luck.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14OK, what are the missing US cities from these film titles?
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Here's our first board of seven.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39I'll read those all one last time.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59There we are. Allan, welcome to Pointless. Thank you.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03Great to have you here. How many times have you won Le Mans? Three.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Blimey! What's the secret?
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Making it 24 hours, keeping it going absolutely flat out.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11Which is the toughest hour? Oh, all through the night.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15That's when you are sleeping, so just that last part of it.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Now, Allan, what about these films?
0:05:17 > 0:05:21Well, I am going to go for The...Kid. The Cincinnati Kid.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23The Cincinnati Kid, says Allan.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Let's see if that's right,
0:05:25 > 0:05:27let's see how many of our 100 people said The Cincinnati Kid.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35You see, that's a good answer, Allan.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Look at that - 21.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39APPLAUSE
0:05:39 > 0:05:41Excellent answer, excellent start to the show.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Great answer, Allan, very well played.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Puts pressure on the rest of them.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Plays a poker player, Steve McQueen.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49It's actually because I'm old, that's the reason I know it.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Allan, we are all old.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Oh, we are, aren't we? We are old, yeah.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56You and I certainly are. Yeah. Thank you, yeah.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00Now, Nigel, a very warm welcome to Pointless.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04Obviously the second most successful Grand Prix driver of all time,
0:06:04 > 0:06:07but what I want to ask you about is the moustache.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11Because back in the 1980s you were the champion of the moustache.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15You kept the flag flying for moustaches, you and Tom Selleck.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17LAUGHTER
0:06:17 > 0:06:20And now moustaches are suddenly rushing back into fashion.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Where has it gone?! I rest my case.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25You had better speak to my lovely lady in the audience.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29Just got to come back at the end of the year for another programme.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32You are a trailblazer, or just completely out of sync.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34I'm not quite sure, one of the two.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Nigel, what would you like to go for on this board?
0:06:36 > 0:06:39None of the above.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Because it is such a fantastic film and I hope it was made
0:06:41 > 0:06:44so many years ago people might forget -
0:06:44 > 0:06:45Sleepless In Seattle.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Sleepless In Seattle, says Nigel. Let's see if that's right,
0:06:48 > 0:06:51let's see how many of our 100 people said Sleepless In Seattle.
0:06:54 > 0:06:5684!
0:06:56 > 0:06:5984 for Sleepless In Seattle.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Yes, 16 people forgot it. Yeah.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04And, yeah, that was it.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Can I have another go? I wouldn't, if I were you.
0:07:07 > 0:07:08OK.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14Suzi, very warm welcome to Pointless. Lovely to have you here. Thank you.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Now, growing up, was motorsport always a passion of yours?
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Yeah, it was always on in the house, Formula One.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23But it was bikes where I was led first.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27I spent about 14 years covering two-wheeled action and this
0:07:27 > 0:07:30is my third year in Formula One and it is fantastic, I am loving it.
0:07:30 > 0:07:35OK. Now, Suzi, what would you like to go for on this board?
0:07:35 > 0:07:39Um... I think I will go for...
0:07:40 > 0:07:43..Chicago, Catherine Zeta Jones and Renee Zellweger.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44Chicago, says Suzi.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Let's see how many of our 100 people said Chicago.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53It's right. 84 is our highest score, you passed that.
0:07:53 > 0:07:5421 is our low.
0:07:54 > 0:07:5731. Really not bad at all.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59APPLAUSE
0:07:59 > 0:08:00Good score for Chicago.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Yeah, good score, good answer. Well played, Suzi.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Won six Oscars, including Best Picture.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12David, welcome back. Do you like our laurel wreaths, by the way?
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Do I like laurel wreaths?
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Yeah, these laurel wreaths we've got. Absolutely.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18When I was young in karting we used to get a laurel wreath
0:08:18 > 0:08:20and I have a bunch of them still from back in the '80s.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22I was going to say, what do you do with them?
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Well, we were from a poor family so we used to boil the leaves,
0:08:25 > 0:08:30make soup and then just keep the cork thing behind as a memory.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Who was your inspiration when you were growing up?
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Who got you hooked on Formula One?
0:08:35 > 0:08:40Well, I grew up listening to Murray and James and watching Nigel,
0:08:40 > 0:08:43and so I'm an unashamed Nigel fan.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44So to be this close to him...
0:08:44 > 0:08:46This is the closest I am allowed to come to him,
0:08:46 > 0:08:50actually, otherwise I will start stroking his arm.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52But that was the generation. I was born in '71,
0:08:52 > 0:08:55so I really started to focus on Formula One in the '80s. Excellent.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Now, David, this is your board. You are the last person to have it,
0:08:58 > 0:09:01so if you want you can go all the way through it and fill in the blanks.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03I'd love to do that.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06I think a safe answer is the top one,
0:09:06 > 0:09:09but for some reason I think there is something on the 3:10
0:09:09 > 0:09:14and I think it begins with a B, but I am not confident.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Then it's Gangs Of New York,
0:09:17 > 0:09:21but I think it is something like 3:10 To Bellum, or something.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Is that even a city? But I'm going for the top one, like I said.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27OK, New York, says David.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Let's see how many of our 100 people said Gangs Of New York.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36There we are, 66, not bad.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38APPLAUSE
0:09:41 > 0:09:43Well played, David. Let's take a look at that 3:10.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46If you had gone for 3:10 To, what would you have gone for?
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Bellum or something. 3:10 To Bellum.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51If you had said that, you would have got 100 points.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53It's the 3:10 To Yuma.
0:09:53 > 0:09:553:10 To Yuma. Ah, OK.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58The one at the bottom, the Johnny Depp film,
0:09:58 > 0:10:00is Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03It would have scored you 39, as opposed to
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Fear And Loathing In Las Depp, which starred Johnny Vegas.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09And the second one down... ..is Talladega.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. Will Ferrell.
0:10:13 > 0:10:1515 points. It is a very funny film, that, as well.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17You would love it. It is set in Nascar. Thank you very much.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20We're halfway through the round. Let's look at those scores.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Allan, look at that - 21, the lowest score of the pass.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Allan and Claire looking very strong at this point.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Then up to 31 where we find Suzi and Christian,
0:10:27 > 0:10:2966, David and Mark,
0:10:29 > 0:10:31and then up to 84, Nigel and Murray.
0:10:31 > 0:10:35So, Murray, we are going to need a low score from you in the next pass.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37We are going to come back down the line now.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:42 > 0:10:45OK. We are now going to put seven more films up on the board
0:10:45 > 0:10:47and here they are.
0:10:47 > 0:10:48We have got...
0:11:07 > 0:11:10I'm going to read those all one last time.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Now then, Mark, welcome to Pointless.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33I read somewhere that you said you had to leave Australia in order
0:11:33 > 0:11:36to further your Formula One career. Is that true? Absolutely.
0:11:36 > 0:11:37It is a long way to travel, mate,
0:11:37 > 0:11:39if you want to race over here every second weekend.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41So, yeah, left when I was pretty young.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45But there is still a fairly healthy F1 base, isn't there, in Australia?
0:11:45 > 0:11:47No. Really, not at all? No.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49This is the place to be. UK - all the Formula One teams
0:11:49 > 0:11:52are based here, all the junior categories.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54So, yeah, finally got over here. It was good. Finally got over here.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57And you competed in Le Mans this year, didn't you?
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Yes. How did that go?
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Pretty well. The team, we managed to get first and second -
0:12:01 > 0:12:04our sister car won the race, we were in second place.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06It's a sensational race - 24 hours, obviously,
0:12:06 > 0:12:09about 3,000 miles, fast as possible.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Well, congratulations. Now, Mark, you are on 66,
0:12:11 > 0:12:14the high-scorers at the moment are Murray and Nigel on 84.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16If you happen to score 17 or less
0:12:16 > 0:12:19you are definitely into the next round.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Miami. For which one?
0:12:22 > 0:12:23LAUGHTER
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Mr Vice. OK, Miami Vice, says Mark. Here is your red line.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31If you can get below that with Miami Vice,
0:12:31 > 0:12:34you are through to the next round. Let's see how we do.
0:12:36 > 0:12:37It was right.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Oh! 75.
0:12:40 > 0:12:4375, taking your total up to 141.
0:12:43 > 0:12:44APPLAUSE
0:12:44 > 0:12:45Yeah, big score.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49Talking of big, Mark, who is the tallest ever F1 driver?
0:12:49 > 0:12:52You must be close. Yeah, probably up there.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54I think James Hunt was pretty tall. Yeah.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57Were you ever tempted, Richard? To F1? Yeah.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01Yeah, I drove a couple of seasons in the late '80s, yeah.
0:13:01 > 0:13:02I drove a Ligier.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Thank you very much, Richard. LAUGHTER
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Christian, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Now, you retired from driving at the age of 25.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Why that early?
0:13:15 > 0:13:17I mean, some people haven't even hit their stride by that stage.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20It's quite simple, really - I wasn't quite good enough
0:13:20 > 0:13:23so I decided I had better do something else.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25So I ended up running a team
0:13:25 > 0:13:29and then going into Formula One and these two were our first
0:13:29 > 0:13:31couple of drivers, pretty much,
0:13:31 > 0:13:33so you can see why we didn't win much.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35There you are on 31.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37It doesn't matter what you score, you are still in the next round.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40What would you like to go for, Christian?
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Well, there's two I'm looking at, which is
0:13:42 > 0:13:45the one from the bottom or one at the top.
0:13:45 > 0:13:46I'm thinking the one at the top.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49I am going to go for the Dallas Buyers Club. The Dallas Buyers Club.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51No red line for you as you are already through.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Let's see how many of 100 people said the Dallas Buyers Club.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58It's right.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01Nice. My goodness.
0:14:02 > 0:14:0527. Very well done indeed -
0:14:05 > 0:14:08second lowest score of the round so far.
0:14:08 > 0:14:0958 is your total.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Well played, Christian, great work on podium three there.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15It won Oscars for both of those gentlemen, as well.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Thank you very much indeed. Murray, welcome to Pointless.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Great to have you here. Thank you.
0:14:20 > 0:14:25You started commenting on racing in 1948, is that right?
0:14:25 > 0:14:27It is right, yes.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30My dad was a professional racing motorcyclist
0:14:30 > 0:14:34and I tried to follow in his footsteps,
0:14:34 > 0:14:37confident that I would show the old man how it should really be done.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40I very rapidly discovered I wouldn't.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42You know what they say - those that can, do
0:14:42 > 0:14:46and those that can't, talk about it. And I started talking in 1948.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50And you haven't stopped since, Murray. And I'm still doing it!
0:14:50 > 0:14:53What would you like to go for?
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Well, I was hoping and praying that I wouldn't get any questions
0:14:56 > 0:15:00first of all on modern pop music and secondly on films,
0:15:00 > 0:15:02and look what I've got.
0:15:02 > 0:15:06But to my consternation, I actually know three of those.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09I am going for number two, partly because I had a crush on
0:15:09 > 0:15:13Jean Arthur when I was a boy, and it's Mr Smith Goes To Washington.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Washington, says Murray. Mr Smith Goes To Washington.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Here's your red line. If you get below that, you are in Round Two.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21Let's see how many people said Washington.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25It's right.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29There we are, well done. Mr Walker goes to Round Two.
0:15:29 > 0:15:3118.
0:15:31 > 0:15:32APPLAUSE
0:15:34 > 0:15:35102 is your total.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Well played, Murray.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41It is actually the best score of the entire round so far,
0:15:41 > 0:15:43so very, very well played. Very good, thank you.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Claire, welcome to Pointless. Hello, thank you.
0:15:46 > 0:15:47Lovely to have you here.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49The world of Formula One, it is still very...
0:15:49 > 0:15:51It is less blokey than it was,
0:15:51 > 0:15:54but it still is quite a sort of blokey world, isn't it?
0:15:54 > 0:15:57It is, there are a lot of blokes in it, but there are also more women
0:15:57 > 0:15:59coming in to Formula One now, which is great.
0:15:59 > 0:16:03And we have a female test driver in our line-up.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05As deputy principal of the team,
0:16:05 > 0:16:08what are your particular duties on a day-to-day basis?
0:16:08 > 0:16:12I deputise for my wonderful dad, who has been racing in Formula One
0:16:12 > 0:16:16for 40 years, but has handed a little bit of the reins over to me.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19So I have a lot of responsibility for day-to-day
0:16:19 > 0:16:20running of the race team
0:16:20 > 0:16:23and then I also am responsible for bringing the money into our team -
0:16:23 > 0:16:27keeping us racing, effectively, at the end of the day. Very important.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29OK, good news - you're already through to the next round,
0:16:29 > 0:16:31it doesn't matter what you score.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Do you fancy, for fun, talking us through that board
0:16:33 > 0:16:34and filling in all the blanks?
0:16:34 > 0:16:38Boston Strangler, Beverly Hills Cop - loved that movie
0:16:38 > 0:16:41when I was a kid - no idea what the Cary Grant one is
0:16:41 > 0:16:45and I am wondering if Meet Me In... San Francisco, because of the song?
0:16:45 > 0:16:48I don't want to take a risk so I'm not going to go for the top one.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50I think I might go for Boston Strangler.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53The Boston Strangler, says Claire. No red line, you are already through.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Let's see how many of our 100 people said The Boston Strangler.
0:17:02 > 0:17:0352.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Very well done indeed. 73 is your total.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Well played, Claire. Safely through.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Let's take a look at the rest of these.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14You are right about Beverly Hills Cop,
0:17:14 > 0:17:16and that would have scored you 48.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19It is not Meet Me In San Francisco, the Judy Garland film...
0:17:19 > 0:17:22St Louie? St Louis, yeah. Louis, rather, sorry.
0:17:22 > 0:17:2449 points for that and The... Philadelphia.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Philadelphia Story, about how they came up with the cheese,
0:17:27 > 0:17:29and that would have scored you 20 points.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32Thank you very much indeed, Richard. So, at the end of our first round,
0:17:32 > 0:17:36the pair who are heading home with a high score of 141 - David and Mark,
0:17:36 > 0:17:38I am sorry, it is you. No worries. I am sorry.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40APPLAUSE
0:17:40 > 0:17:44Thanks so much for coming to play, though. Please come and play again.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46But for the remaining three pairs, it is now time for Round Two.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54And so we are suddenly down to three pairs.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57At the end of this round we will have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01Our category for Round Two this evening is...
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Oh, no. It is a Words round.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:18:05 > 0:18:07who is going to go second?
0:18:07 > 0:18:09And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Words ending in -ane, Richard.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27We are looking for any word in the English language that ends -ane.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30That is any word on the website oxforddictionaries.com
0:18:30 > 0:18:33in the English language section that ends -ane.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35As always, no proper nouns, no hyphenated words,
0:18:35 > 0:18:37anything like that.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40I can tell you there are over 70 pointless answers on this round,
0:18:40 > 0:18:43lots and lots of words out there ending -ane.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45OK, thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Claire, always tough going first.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49I have one. You've got one? I do.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53It is a bit motorsport related, sorry to be boring. Octane.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Oh, octane. That is brilliant.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58Let's see how many of our 100 people said octane.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01Apparently so. It appears we had that.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08It is a very good answer. Look at that, Claire.
0:19:08 > 0:19:095! Very well done indeed.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12APPLAUSE
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Cracking start to the round. Octane.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17I was wondering how long it would take a roomful of Formula 1
0:19:17 > 0:19:21professionals to come up with octane and it was immediate.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23Excellent. Murray.
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Erm...
0:19:26 > 0:19:29The thing that horses have - mane.
0:19:29 > 0:19:30Mane, says Murray.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Let's see how many of our 100 people said mane.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Oh, 58.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42APPLAUSE
0:19:42 > 0:19:4558 for mane. Can we have another go?
0:19:45 > 0:19:48I think octane must have been stolen from Murray at the last moment.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51I think so. Thanks very much indeed. Suzi.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53It is funny, isn't it? When you are sitting at home
0:19:53 > 0:19:56watching this programme you will be churning out words,
0:19:56 > 0:19:59tonnes and tonnes of words, shouting at the TV.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01When you are standing here you are thinking,
0:20:01 > 0:20:04"Is that A-I-N or A-N-E?"
0:20:04 > 0:20:06The most simple of words. Erm...
0:20:08 > 0:20:11I think I might go for insane.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13Insane. Insane, says Suzi,
0:20:13 > 0:20:15and thank you for watching it at home.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Let's see how many of our 100 people said insane.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23It is right. Well, 58 is our high score.
0:20:23 > 0:20:24You pass it.
0:20:24 > 0:20:2639 for insane.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28APPLAUSE
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Well played, Suzi.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33I hope that is what you're going to be driving Mark and David
0:20:33 > 0:20:36for the rest of the season when you point out quite how badly they did.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Let's take a look at those scores. 5, Claire, very well done indeed -
0:20:42 > 0:20:44the best score of that pass by a margin.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47Claire and Allan looking pretty good for the head-to-head at this point.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50Then up to 39 where we find Suzi and Christian.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Up to 58, Murray and Nigel.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54We need a low score from you, Nigel, in the next pass.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Best of luck with that, Nigel. We'll come back down the line now.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:03 > 0:21:04Christian.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Christian, words ending -ane.
0:21:09 > 0:21:10-Ane. -Ane.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14Mundane. Mundane, says Christian.
0:21:14 > 0:21:15OK, here is your red line.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18If you can get below this red line with mundane...
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Quite low, but mundane might do it for you.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22Let's see if it can.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Very well done indeed. 11.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33APPLAUSE
0:21:35 > 0:21:3750 is your total.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38You can see, can't you,
0:21:38 > 0:21:42that Christian and Claire are very much the brains behind this sport?
0:21:42 > 0:21:43It becomes apparent.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46Thank you, Richard. Now, Nigel.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49NIGEL LAUGHS
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Nigel, you are our high-scorers, so we need a really low score from you.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Any word ending -ane.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57Pane. Pane?
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Yeah, but I don't think that's correct.
0:21:59 > 0:22:00OK, pane, says Nigel.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said pane.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07No red line for you as you are the high-scorers.
0:22:07 > 0:22:08100.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10Oh, my goodness!
0:22:12 > 0:22:1350 for pane.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16APPLAUSE
0:22:16 > 0:22:17108 is your total.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Yeah, pane, as in a sheet of glass, say.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24There we are. Thank you very much.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27Allan, it doesn't matter what you score,
0:22:27 > 0:22:30you are still through to the next round. Because of the delightful...
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Exactly. Exactly, Claire's fantastic answer.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36OK, well, I will go for an easy one, then.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Because we are always going down the fast lane, so lane.
0:22:39 > 0:22:40Lane, says Allan.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43That got a tut, I can't believe it. Lane got a tut!
0:22:43 > 0:22:45No red line for you, you are already through.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Let's see how many of 100 people said lane.
0:22:51 > 0:22:5272.
0:22:52 > 0:22:5477 is your total.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56APPLAUSE
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Now, there is a couple of racing drivers here.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Nigel and Allan, I will test you on this.
0:23:02 > 0:23:07If you got a series of very tricky, intricate bends, what is that?
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Corners. Chicane. Corners!
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Chicane would have scored you 2 points and, Nigel,
0:23:13 > 0:23:16have you ever lost control on standing water?
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Aquaplane. Aquaplane, which would have scored you 1 point.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Did you know I was a ventriloquist as well?
0:23:21 > 0:23:22That was pretty good projection!
0:23:22 > 0:23:24Both of those would have been very good answers.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Let's take a look at the pointless answers.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28Balletomane, somebody who likes ballet.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31Bibliomane, someone who likes books. Elastane...?
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Someone who likes elastic.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Someone who likes elastic, exactly(!)
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Frangipane is a lovely answer - well done if you got that -
0:23:37 > 0:23:40an almond paste. Isooctane would have been a pointless answer.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Your engineers would have got isooctane.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Landplane is a pointless answer.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47Let's look at the top three answers. Some of these will be familiar.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50These are the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53Sane would have scored you 51 - I remember those days!
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Mane, 58.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59And right at the top, lane. Biggest scorer of all - 72.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01We wish to appeal.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04He wishes to appeal. I wish to appeal.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06The three digits you had in front,
0:24:06 > 0:24:08we thought it could only have three letters.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10And your appeal is what?
0:24:10 > 0:24:13Exactly that, and you can have many more.
0:24:13 > 0:24:14You definitely can,
0:24:14 > 0:24:17but is your appeal that I said you could only have three letters
0:24:17 > 0:24:19or that you doesn't listen properly to the question?
0:24:19 > 0:24:23I'm just trying to get the measure of the appeal, Nigel.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25He's dealt with people like you before, you know.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27LAUGHTER
0:24:27 > 0:24:30So, at the end of our second round the pair who are heading home -
0:24:30 > 0:24:33I'm sorry - with a high score of 108, Nigel and Murray, it is you.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35It has been such a pleasure having you on the show.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Thank you so much for playing. Nigel and Murray, everyone. Thank you.
0:24:39 > 0:24:40APPLAUSE
0:24:42 > 0:24:45Right, for Suzi and Christian, Claire and Allan,
0:24:45 > 0:24:48it is now time for our head-to-head.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54Very, very well done, Suzi and Christian, Claire and Allan,
0:24:54 > 0:24:58you're one step closer to the final and a chance to play for our jackpot
0:24:58 > 0:25:00which currently stands at ?2,500.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06This is where we decide who goes through to the final and plays for
0:25:06 > 0:25:09the jackpot, and we do it by making you go head-to-head.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12But the big difference is - you can now confer.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15I think this is going to be very close and extremely competitive.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17I'm looking forward to it. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Sporting Brothers. Oh, no.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34Just going to show you five images now of Sporting Brothers.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37We just need you to give us the surname of the most obscure, please.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Very best of luck. OK. Thanks very much indeed.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42Let's reveal our five images and here they come. We have got...
0:26:03 > 0:26:04And...
0:26:08 > 0:26:12There we are. Five sets of Sporting Brothers.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16Suzi and Christian, you're our low scorers so you will go first.
0:26:16 > 0:26:17Well...
0:26:19 > 0:26:24A is simple. C is all right, D's OK and E is an interesting one.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27That might be the way to go.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31We think that A are the Brownlee brothers, the triathletes.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35The Brownlees, say Suzi and Christian for E. Brownlee.
0:26:35 > 0:26:36So, Claire and Allan...
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Which one do we want to go for?
0:26:38 > 0:26:40C. C. So we'll go for C.
0:26:40 > 0:26:41The Charlton brothers.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43OK, you're going to say the Charltons.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45So we have Brownlee, we have Charlton.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Suzi and Christian said Brownlee for E. Let's see if that's right.
0:26:48 > 0:26:53Let's see how many of our 100 agree with them.
0:26:53 > 0:26:54It's right. Very well done.
0:26:59 > 0:27:0217 for Brownlee. Not bad at all. That's a good score.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Now, meanwhile, Claire and Allan
0:27:06 > 0:27:08have said it's the Charlton brothers in C.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said Charlton.
0:27:14 > 0:27:15It is right.
0:27:18 > 0:27:2258. Very well done indeed, Suzi and Christian.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24After one question, you are up 1-0.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Now let's look through the rest of these. A is Underwood,
0:27:27 > 0:27:32the Underwood brothers, which scored you 25 points.
0:27:32 > 0:27:33No.
0:27:33 > 0:27:39The best answer on the board is B and that is the Manning brothers,
0:27:39 > 0:27:43Eli and Peyton Manning, the American football stars. 4 points.
0:27:43 > 0:27:44Well done if you said that.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48And D, of course, is David Coulthard and Mark Webber.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50LAUGHTER
0:27:50 > 0:27:54It is the Klitschko brothers, Vladimir and Vitali Klitschko
0:27:54 > 0:27:55and that would have scored you 20.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Thank you very much. OK, here comes your second question.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01Claire and Allan, you get to answer it first, but you have to win it
0:28:01 > 0:28:03to stay in the game, so best of luck. It concerns...
0:28:07 > 0:28:08Songs With Girls' Names.
0:28:08 > 0:28:09Richard.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13We'll play you five clips now of songs with girls' names in their title.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15We need you to give us the full title of these songs, please.
0:28:15 > 0:28:20OK, let's listen to our five clips and here they come. We've got A.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24# Well, sometimes I go out by myself
0:28:24 > 0:28:27# And I look across the water
0:28:30 > 0:28:33# And I think of all the things what you're doing
0:28:33 > 0:28:36# And in my head I paint a picture... #
0:28:36 > 0:28:38Here's B.

0:29:37 > 0:29:41MUSIC DROWNS OUT SPEECH
0:29:50 > 0:29:54OK, now, Claire and Allan, you are to go first.
0:29:54 > 0:29:58C. And... Sally. Mustang Sally.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02Mustang Sally. That's the right name, right? Yeah, yeah. That's right. Mustang Sally.
0:30:02 > 0:30:03Suzi and Christian.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06We know A, B and D. You can talk through them all if you like. A is...
0:30:06 > 0:30:09A is Amy... Amy Winehouse, Valerie. A is Valerie.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12B is Eric Clapton, Layla. Layla.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15C, Mustang Sally. D... Billie Jean.
0:30:15 > 0:30:17Billie Jean, Michael Jackson.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19So we don't know the name of E.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22We'll have Valerie. We'll go for Valerie. OK, so, A, Valerie.
0:30:22 > 0:30:24So we have Mustang Sally and we have Valerie.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27Claire and Allan said Mustang Sally. Let's see if that's right for C.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29Let's see how many people said Mustang Sally.
0:30:34 > 0:30:37Keep going, keep going, keep going. Down, down, down, down, down.
0:30:37 > 0:30:3833.
0:30:40 > 0:30:41It's going to be close.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45Meanwhile, Suzi and Christian have said Valerie for A.
0:30:45 > 0:30:50Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people agree with them.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53It's right. Ooh, 73. That's a high one.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57Well done, Claire and Allan. That's exactly what you needed to do.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00You're back in the game after two questions. It's 1-1.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03Very well played. There's only one answer that could have beaten Mustang Sally.
0:31:03 > 0:31:07That was E, so let's take a little listen to all of these songs
0:31:07 > 0:31:10we haven't heard the answers to, so B...
0:31:10 > 0:31:13Layla. Of course, Derek And The Dominos, would have scored you 51.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16So it would have been a better answer than the one you gave us.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19Still wouldn't have won you the point.
0:31:19 > 0:31:23D you also knew, which is of course Billie Jean, Michael Jackson.
0:31:23 > 0:31:27And that would have scored you 80 points.
0:31:27 > 0:31:32Now we all know the tune to E - very, very familiar.
0:31:32 > 0:31:36It's by the Allman Brothers. And very well done if you knew.
0:31:36 > 0:31:39It's called Jessica. Jessica.
0:31:39 > 0:31:4114 points for that.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45I'm amazed 14 people knew it.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47Now, here comes your third question.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49Whoever wins this goes through to the final
0:31:49 > 0:31:51and plays for that jackpot for their charities.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54Best of luck to both pairs. It concerns...
0:31:55 > 0:31:57Oh, no! Malaysia. Rich, OK.
0:31:57 > 0:31:59Well, it's somewhere you've all been, I'm guessing.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02We are going to show you five clues now to facts about Malaysia.
0:32:02 > 0:32:05You just need to give us the most obscure answer, please
0:32:05 > 0:32:08and the team that does will be playing for the jackpot, so best of luck.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10OK, let's reveal our five clues, and here they come.
0:32:10 > 0:32:11We've got...
0:32:30 > 0:32:32I'll read those all again.
0:32:48 > 0:32:50Suzi and Christian will go first.
0:32:50 > 0:32:54I think the skyscrapers is quite an easy one.
0:32:54 > 0:32:55It's too obvious, yeah.
0:32:55 > 0:33:00And probably the currency... Shall we go for the shoes?
0:33:00 > 0:33:02Do you know who the shoes are?
0:33:02 > 0:33:04Er, yeah. OK.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07I... I think your wife would know, as well. Oh, really? Yeah.
0:33:07 > 0:33:09You should buy her some.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11Thank you very much.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15All right, Geri. Right, come on - let's go with the shoes.
0:33:15 > 0:33:16Er, well - Jimmy Choo.
0:33:16 > 0:33:18OK, you're going to go for Jimmy Choo. Yep.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21Jimmy Choo, say Suzi and Christian. Now, then, Claire and Allan,
0:33:21 > 0:33:22talk us through that board.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Skyscrapers are the Petronas Towers.
0:33:25 > 0:33:29The Malaysian unit of currency is the ringgit and KL is Kuala Lumpur.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32There's only a certain number of months with 31 days,
0:33:32 > 0:33:34so you could bring that down and then try and work it out,
0:33:34 > 0:33:36if you wanted to.
0:33:36 > 0:33:38I'd go for the currency question,
0:33:38 > 0:33:39cos it think it'll be...
0:33:39 > 0:33:41Do you? Yep.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43Currency? I would go for the currency.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47Ringgit. The ringgit, OK. We have Jimmy Choo, we have ringgit.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50Now, Suzi and Christian said Jimmy Choo for the shoe designer.
0:33:50 > 0:33:51Let's see if that's right,
0:33:51 > 0:33:54let's see how many of our 100 people said Jimmy Choo.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03APPLAUSE
0:34:03 > 0:34:05OK.
0:34:05 > 0:34:0828 out of 100 knew Jimmy Choo.
0:34:08 > 0:34:12Now, Claire and Allan have said the ringgit is the unit of currency.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14Let's see how many of our 100 people said the ringgit.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17This is it.
0:34:17 > 0:34:18It's right.
0:34:22 > 0:34:23Wins the point for you.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26APPLAUSE
0:34:26 > 0:34:275 for the ringgit.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31Which means - very well done, Claire and Allan -
0:34:31 > 0:34:33after three questions, you are through to the final, 2-1.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36You can tell when people spend a long time in Malaysia
0:34:36 > 0:34:38when they don't think ringgit is an obscure answer.
0:34:38 > 0:34:40They go, "That's ringgit, everybody knows that."
0:34:40 > 0:34:42Let's take a look through all the answers.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44The skyscrapers are the Petronas Towers.
0:34:44 > 0:34:4717 points for that.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49The city is Kuala Lumpur.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52Would have scored you 68.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54Malaysian Independence Day is August,
0:34:54 > 0:34:56that would have scored you 4 points.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59So the ringgit almost the best answer on the board.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01There we are. Well, thank you very much.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04The pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round -
0:35:04 > 0:35:06they were our low scorers throughout the show - Suzi and Christian,
0:35:06 > 0:35:08but we have to say goodbye.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10It's been wonderful having you on the show. Thank you for playing.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12Thank you. APPLAUSE
0:35:14 > 0:35:17But for Claire and Allan, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20APPLAUSE
0:35:20 > 0:35:22Very, very well done.
0:35:22 > 0:35:25Claire and Allan, you've fought off all the competition
0:35:25 > 0:35:27and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:33 > 0:35:36You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot for your charities
0:35:36 > 0:35:40and, at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at ?2,500.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42APPLAUSE
0:35:44 > 0:35:47Well, on this special Formula One edition of Pointless,
0:35:47 > 0:35:51I have to say you have driven the track absolutely impeccably.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53Beautiful, haven't put a foot wrong.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55Beautiful cornering, wonderful acceleration.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57What would you like to see come up in this last round?
0:35:57 > 0:35:58Motorsport. Yeah, F1.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01Interesting. Surprise, surprise(!)
0:36:01 > 0:36:04Any other areas of interest that you would be confident in?
0:36:04 > 0:36:06Er, currencies of the world.
0:36:06 > 0:36:10Good. Listen, we're going to put four choices up on the board there.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12Let's hope there's something up there you like the look of.
0:36:12 > 0:36:14Today's choices look like this.
0:36:23 > 0:36:25That's really bad.
0:36:25 > 0:36:27They're the worst possible categories - for me, anyway.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29I don't know for you, Allan.
0:36:29 > 0:36:31I'm Scottish, so European Football Leagues
0:36:31 > 0:36:35doesn't actually go much further than UEFA at the moment.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37Is Flying...? What's Flying going to be?
0:36:37 > 0:36:39LAUGHTER What is Flying going to be?
0:36:39 > 0:36:41Shall we risk flying, just for giggles?
0:36:41 > 0:36:44Guys, you've just been lapped by Murray Walker.
0:36:44 > 0:36:45LAUGHTER
0:36:47 > 0:36:48I'm sorry.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51We're going to try and fly high in Flying. Flying it is.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54There we go. APPLAUSE AND WHOOPING
0:36:54 > 0:36:56Best of luck. Three very different questions
0:36:56 > 0:36:57in very different areas here.
0:36:57 > 0:36:59I hope that one of them suits you. Let's take a look.
0:36:59 > 0:37:03We are looking for the name of any UK RAF station
0:37:03 > 0:37:07listed on the RAF website, so any RAF station in the UK.
0:37:07 > 0:37:11We are looking for the name of any actor who was in Top Gun,
0:37:11 > 0:37:13so any actor, according to IMDb, who was in Top Gun.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16Or we're looking for any UK top 40 single up to May 2015
0:37:16 > 0:37:18that contain the word "fly" or "flying" -
0:37:18 > 0:37:20it can be part of a longer word.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23So any UK RAF stations,
0:37:23 > 0:37:25any actors in Top Gun,
0:37:25 > 0:37:28or any UK top 40 single containing the word "fly". Very best of luck.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31OK, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:37:31 > 0:37:33and all you need to win that jackpot
0:37:33 > 0:37:36is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:36 > 0:37:38Are you ready? Yes. Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41There they are, your time starts now.
0:37:41 > 0:37:44I have no idea, I wish my dad was here, cos he would know everything.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47Cast of Top Gun - how about Meg Ryan?
0:37:47 > 0:37:49Everyone always remembers Kelly McGillis.
0:37:49 > 0:37:54And Tom Cruise, and Val Kilmer. Yep. Maybe Meg Ryan.
0:37:54 > 0:37:55Singles containing "fly".
0:37:57 > 0:37:59Is that from this year, singles containing "fly"?
0:37:59 > 0:38:01For ever, up to May 2015.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03I know Fly Me To The Moon.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06I didn't know that, so that's a good one.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Lossiemouth RAF station.
0:38:08 > 0:38:09What's the UK one where we go testing?
0:38:09 > 0:38:11You're right, what it is?
0:38:11 > 0:38:13You've got Brize Norton. Brize Norton.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16What's the B? It starts with B and it's just south of you
0:38:16 > 0:38:19and I went there in 1993.
0:38:19 > 0:38:20When you were about 15.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23Uh... Oh, no! I'll come back to that.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25Dad's going to kill me.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27What is it? Cos no-one will know that.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32Ten seconds left. Thank you.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34Right, what's your cast of Top Gun? Come back to that one.
0:38:34 > 0:38:38Meg Ryan. Yep. Singles - Fly Me To The Moon.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41And UK RAF... Let's go Benson.
0:38:41 > 0:38:44OK, that, I'm afraid, is your time up.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46I now need your three answers.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49Cast of Top Gun - Meg Ryan. OK, Meg Ryan from Top Gun.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51Fly Me To The Moon, which everybody knows.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53Fly Me To The Moon.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56The only other thing I can say is the RAF station being Lossiemouth,
0:38:56 > 0:38:58but the one is with B.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00Say that one, say that one. Lossiemouth.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02Lossiemouth RAF station.
0:39:02 > 0:39:03OK, there are three answers.
0:39:03 > 0:39:07Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:07 > 0:39:09Lossiemouth, or...? Lossiemouth. OK, Lossiemouth goes last.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11Least likely to be pointless?
0:39:11 > 0:39:12Least likely? Meg Ryan.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15Meg Ryan goes first and we put Fly Me To The Moon in the middle.
0:39:15 > 0:39:19Let's pop those up on the board in that order and here they are.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21We've got Meg Ryan, we've got Fly Me To The Moon
0:39:21 > 0:39:23and we've got RAF Lossiemouth.
0:39:23 > 0:39:25Very, very best of luck.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Three good answers on the board.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29There's nothing to say one of those won't be pointless
0:39:29 > 0:39:30and won't win that jackpot for you.
0:39:30 > 0:39:33Now, which charities are you playing for? Claire.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36Um, I feel like I should apologise in advance,
0:39:36 > 0:39:39because we're not going to win, but the Spinal Injuries Association.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42Allan? Headway, a head injuries charity.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Very good, two excellent charities there.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47APPLAUSE
0:39:47 > 0:39:48Let us hope that one of your answers,
0:39:48 > 0:39:52at least one of your answers, will be pointless and will win that
0:39:52 > 0:39:53jackpot for those deserving causes.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56OK, in the first instance this evening,
0:39:56 > 0:39:58we were looking for cast members from the film Top Gun.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00You've gone for Meg Ryan.
0:40:00 > 0:40:03If it is pointless, it will win you ?2,500 for your charities.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06Let's see how many of our 100 people said Meg Ryan.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11It's right. Nervous, really nervous.
0:40:11 > 0:40:15This just has to go down to zero and you'll leave with ?2,500.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Look at, down it goes, still going down, through the teens,
0:40:17 > 0:40:20into single figures, still going down, still going down!
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Look at that! AUDIENCE GROANS
0:40:22 > 0:40:23APPLAUSE You were...
0:40:23 > 0:40:24You were absolutely right.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30Very well done.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32That's a great answer, fabulous scoring there.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34Lovely low scoring, but it's not pointless. Gutted.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36We are only interested in pointless answers,
0:40:36 > 0:40:39which brings us onto your next answer, Fly Me To The Moon.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42We were looking for top 40 singles with the word "fly" in their title.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44Again, it has to be pointless for you to win the jackpot.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48Let's see how many of our 100 people said Fly Me To The Moon, for ?2,500.
0:40:51 > 0:40:53Oh!
0:40:53 > 0:40:54Oh.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58Maybe it didn't make it to the UK charts.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00Maybe it never did, I don't know. Who knows?
0:41:00 > 0:41:02Anyway, it all means you only have one more shot at today's jackpot.
0:41:02 > 0:41:05Everything is riding on your third and final answer,
0:41:05 > 0:41:07which was RAF Lossiemouth.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10This was your most confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:41:10 > 0:41:15If this scores nothing, you leave here with ?2,500 for your charities.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18How many people said RAF Lossiemouth? Is it pointless?
0:41:20 > 0:41:22It's right.
0:41:22 > 0:41:24Meg Ryan was right and took us all the way down to one.
0:41:24 > 0:41:27Fly Me To The Moon, we don't yet know why, but it was incorrect.
0:41:27 > 0:41:30RAF Lossiemouth now takes us down into single figures...
0:41:30 > 0:41:31Oh, no! AUDIENCE GROANS

0:41:33 > 0:41:35APPLAUSE
0:41:37 > 0:41:38Gutted.
0:41:38 > 0:41:42Listen, two very, very good answers there.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45Meg Ryan, that was so unlucky not to get a pointless answer there.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47I'm afraid you didn't manage to find
0:41:47 > 0:41:50that all-important pointless answer itself,
0:41:50 > 0:41:53so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of ?2,500.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55However, as it is a celebrity special,
0:41:55 > 0:41:57we are going to donate ?500 to each celebrity pair
0:41:57 > 0:41:59for their chosen charity. Thank you.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03Yeah, terrific performance.
0:42:03 > 0:42:05We'll go through some of the pointless answers
0:42:05 > 0:42:07and we'll go through some of these RAF stations, as well.
0:42:07 > 0:42:09Let's take a look at those first.

0:42:21 > 0:42:22Let's take a look at Top Gun.
0:42:29 > 0:42:30Everyone in that film was pointless,
0:42:30 > 0:42:34other than Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, Kelly McGillis, Anthony Edwards,
0:42:34 > 0:42:36Tom Skerritt and Meg Ryan - who, as you know, scored 1.
0:42:36 > 0:42:39Singles containing "fly".
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Bullet With Butterfly Wings - Smashing Pumpkins.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43Seal's Fly Like An Eagle,
0:42:43 > 0:42:47our Eurovision entry, Flying The Flag, and 10CC's I'm Mandy Fly Me.

0:42:50 > 0:42:51Miley Cyrus, Fly On The Wall,
0:42:51 > 0:42:53I'll Fly For You, Spandau Ballet,
0:42:53 > 0:42:55lots of pointless answers. Well done if you said one of those.
