0:01:51 > 0:01:53Thanks very much, all of you.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55We'll find out more about you on the show as it goes along.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58That just leaves one more person to introduce.
0:01:58 > 0:01:59Here to play fast and loose
0:01:59 > 0:02:02and rigorously fact-checked with the truth,
0:02:02 > 0:02:05it's my Pointless friend, Richard.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09- Hiya. Evening, everybody. Evening. - APPLAUSE
0:02:09 > 0:02:12- Good evening to you.- Good evening. - Wow.- I know, wow.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- I know, wow.- You see.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17You know, the net worth of everybody here, put together,
0:02:17 > 0:02:21- is over £17 billion.- Is that true?
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Well, if we take YOU out of the equation,
0:02:23 > 0:02:27it's somewhere under £700,000, but it's still a lot.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29It's still a lot of money, isn't it?
0:02:29 > 0:02:31It's going to be absolutely fantastic.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34- All successes in their own fields. Quite scary for us.- Yeah.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37We're used to having at least some kind of layabouts,
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- but everyone here is so good.- Yeah.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42- We're going to have to be absolutely on it.- Terrifying.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46A whole series of people here who could invest in our many schemes.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49- We'd better remember them all.- Let's come up with some during the show.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53OK, we will. As usual, all of today's questions
0:02:53 > 0:02:55have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Our contestants are looking to find
0:02:57 > 0:02:59those all-important pointless answers,
0:02:59 > 0:03:01answers that none of our 100 people gave.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Find one and we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05As today's show is a celebrity special,
0:03:05 > 0:03:08each of our celebrities is playing for a nominated charity,
0:03:08 > 0:03:11so we start off with a jackpot of £2,500.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14APPLAUSE
0:03:14 > 0:03:17If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19APPLAUSE
0:03:23 > 0:03:26There's only one rule you have to remember.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29The pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:03:29 > 0:03:30will be eliminated. That is it.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Our first category this evening is...
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Motoring. Peter looks thrilled with that.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41Can you decide in your pairs who's going first and who's going second.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52Let's find out what the question is and here it comes.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Countries that drive on the right, Richard.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06We're looking for any country where they drive on the right.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09That is the opposite side of the road to where we drive in the UK,
0:04:09 > 0:04:13so any country where they drive on the opposite side to the UK.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15By country, we mean a sovereign state
0:04:15 > 0:04:17that's a member of the UN in its own right.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Thank you very much, Richard. OK, now, Richard.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Richard, welcome to Pointless. Good to have you here.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29- You were on Dragons' Den for a couple of series?- Two series.- Two series.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31And you were renowned for the nicest reasons...
0:04:31 > 0:04:33You were the person who gave the most money...
0:04:33 > 0:04:38Sorry, "gave" the most money away... INVESTED the most money.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41That's a good reputation to have. Is that true?
0:04:41 > 0:04:44I'm not sure it's true, but I was also called Mr Nice,
0:04:44 > 0:04:47which is a nice thing to have, isn't it?
0:04:47 > 0:04:49I'm not going to be nice to THESE guys!
0:04:49 > 0:04:51In years and years of watching,
0:04:51 > 0:04:53I don't think I've seen Duncan Bannatyne
0:04:53 > 0:04:55get his chequebook out once.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58You should have a drink with him. It's an expensive night!
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Yeah, I can easily believe that.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Now, Richard, countries that drive on the right.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06- Andorra.- Andorra.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10Let's hope it's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people said Andorra.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14It is right, thank goodness.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17This could be a very, very good answer, Richard.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19It has that feel about it. Look at that.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Down it goes to 4. Very well done. APPLAUSE
0:05:27 > 0:05:30That's a terrific answer. Great way to start the show as well.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33- That's surprisingly high, I would have thought, for Andorra.- Mmm.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36- Saira, welcome. - Thank you.- Welcome.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39Little bit of pressure on you as representatives of The Apprentice.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41When you did that, did you learn
0:05:41 > 0:05:44all sorts of wonderful things from that series?
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Well, we were the very first people to do it, Tim and I,
0:05:47 > 0:05:49so we had no idea what to expect.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52We were in the house for three months, which was a long time,
0:05:52 > 0:05:54and I can honestly tell you...
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Before that point, I was working for corporate companies,
0:05:57 > 0:06:00so I'd never done anything off my own back, really,
0:06:00 > 0:06:02and did I learn skills? Absolutely.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05It gave me the confidence to believe in myself and think,
0:06:05 > 0:06:07"I actually think I can make a decision
0:06:07 > 0:06:09"and it could turn into money."
0:06:09 > 0:06:12And subsequently, you have and it has!
0:06:12 > 0:06:17Well, I run my own business and I'm in the media industry as well,
0:06:17 > 0:06:20so it's been a fantastic experience.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22For me, it changed my life and it opened doors
0:06:22 > 0:06:26- and I'll always be grateful for that.- Wonderful.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28- Now, Saira.- Yes.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30A country where they drive on the right.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- Pakistan.- Pakistan, says Saira.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said it.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Oh!
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Ooh, Saira. - I know. Not a good start.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50That scores you 100 points. I'm sorry. 100 points for Pakistan.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53That explains why you got all those points on your licence in Islamabad.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
0:06:57 > 0:06:59SAIRA LAUGHS
0:06:59 > 0:07:03Thanks very much, Richard. Michelle, welcome to Pointless.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07Great to have you here. The Ultimo bra - tell us about that.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10How did that start? You'll see why I'm asking that question.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13It's not quite as ridiculous as it sounds.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15I got made redundant from my job
0:07:15 > 0:07:17and I went to a dinner dance one night
0:07:17 > 0:07:20and came up with the world-famous gel-filled bra
0:07:20 > 0:07:26and since then, 15 inventions later, and several other brands as well.
0:07:26 > 0:07:30But I recently sold 80% and now, I've just launched my book,
0:07:30 > 0:07:33My Fight To The Top, and I tour round the world mentoring people,
0:07:33 > 0:07:36so I've now got 105 people that I'm mentoring.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Well, congratulations. It's been a fantastic success story.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Well, you've got a bit of a cushion now...
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- Thanks for that, thanks for that. Cheers.- Thanks to Saira.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47It's just the first question!
0:07:47 > 0:07:50So, yes, that takes a little bit of pressure off.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52What are you thinking of?
0:07:52 > 0:07:56I'm sure many people have answered this but I was going for...
0:07:56 > 0:08:01Because I'm sure they won't come up with Ireland straightaway,
0:08:01 > 0:08:04I don't think, but Southern Ireland.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- OK, you're going to go for Ireland, the Republic of Ireland.- Yeah.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said that.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17What? Why's that?
0:08:17 > 0:08:21Ooh, Saira is very ungraciously...
0:08:21 > 0:08:23LAUGHTER
0:08:23 > 0:08:27- That's...- I'm afraid that's incorrect. Scores you 100 points.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29Why is that wrong, Richard?
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Because they drive on the left, I'm so sorry.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34LAUGHTER
0:08:34 > 0:08:38- Thanks very much. Peter.- Hello. - A warm welcome to you, Peter.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39As a person who deals in art...
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Well, you deal in collections of things, don't you?
0:08:42 > 0:08:46Well, primarily, we deal in collectibles,
0:08:46 > 0:08:49primarily from Formula 1, but over the years,
0:08:49 > 0:08:53we've handled Banksys, we've handled Damien Hirsts, all kinds of things.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Do you find, as a dealer, you're thinking financially the whole time?
0:08:56 > 0:08:58If you go into someone's room, do you think,
0:08:58 > 0:09:00"Ooh, I wonder how much they spent on that"?
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Or are you able to switch it off? Are you able to appreciate things?
0:09:03 > 0:09:06I think the key, for me, when I'm making a decision,
0:09:06 > 0:09:09is if I don't like something, I rarely buy it.
0:09:09 > 0:09:14Having said that, if a Banksy comes along for £50, I'll probably buy it.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Now, Peter, driving on the right-hand side.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19There are obviously a lot of countries that drive on the right,
0:09:19 > 0:09:22- but I'm going to say Finland. - OK, Finland.- Finland.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26Finland. Is it right? How many of our 100 people said Finland?
0:09:28 > 0:09:33It's right. 4 is our lowest, 100 our high. You passed that immediately.
0:09:33 > 0:09:344...
0:09:34 > 0:09:369 you get for Finland. Not bad at all.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38APPLAUSE
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Well played, Peter. A terrific answer, Finland.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Got some of the greatest rally drivers in the world
0:09:45 > 0:09:47and Grand Prix drivers, Finland.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50- Mmm.- So, they're doing something right.- Mmm.- Or left.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53LAUGHTER We're halfway through the round.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Let's look at those scores.
0:09:55 > 0:09:594, Richard. Very well done. The lowest score of the round so far.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Then up to 9 where we find Peter and Jeff.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Then up to 100 where we find Michelle and Declan and Saira and Tim.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06So, Declan and Tim, it is between the pair of you.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Jeff, warm welcome to Pointless.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Now, on Four Rooms, have you ever
0:10:18 > 0:10:22really, really regretted either buying something
0:10:22 > 0:10:24or not going high enough
0:10:24 > 0:10:26- to get something?- Both.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30So often, there's something that I really, really wanted
0:10:30 > 0:10:33but I've had to think to myself,
0:10:33 > 0:10:35"I've got to sell it."
0:10:35 > 0:10:38Although, it also has to be said that every time I've overpaid
0:10:38 > 0:10:44for anything of great quality, I've never, ever lost.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47If you buy something just for investment, you're a loser.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49If you buy something because...
0:10:50 > 0:10:53..you love it, then you know that somebody else is going to love it
0:10:53 > 0:10:56and there's no limit.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58There's a great unanimity of message
0:10:58 > 0:11:01- from podium four over there. - Hey!- I like that very much indeed.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Now then, what are you going to go for,
0:11:03 > 0:11:06in terms of driving on the right-hand side of the road?
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- Brazil.- Brazil, says Jeff.
0:11:08 > 0:11:13Let's see how many of our 100 people said Brazil. There's your red line.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15If you get below that, you're through to the next round.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20It's right and you're through.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23We've had 4 and we've had 9 as our low-scorers.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Brazil finishes at 8. Very well done. Second lowest score so far.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30APPLAUSE Your total is 17.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Very well played, Jeff. Safely through on that last podium.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37- Two low scores.- Mmm, two low scores.
0:11:37 > 0:11:38Declan, now then.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42Right, Declan, as a business journalist, as someone who follows business,
0:11:42 > 0:11:44you must just... You kind of know everything.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Short of insider dealing, obviously, you know
0:11:47 > 0:11:50- everything that's publicly known. - No, I'm just very good at faking it.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53But you must know what the timings of announcements are,
0:11:53 > 0:11:55when figures are going to be published,
0:11:55 > 0:11:58all those sorts of important quarterly things
0:11:58 > 0:12:03- that a shrewd investor would know. - A lot of it comes by surprise
0:12:03 > 0:12:05and that was always the fun part of the job,
0:12:05 > 0:12:08was the unexpected announcement first thing in the morning,
0:12:08 > 0:12:10that had a huge impact on people
0:12:10 > 0:12:14who were watching the programme, if it was breakfast television.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15And to be able to bring that news to people
0:12:15 > 0:12:18and help them understand it, that was a great thrill.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22Sure. Now, Declan, this is mere preamble.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26- We need a low score from you. - I have a confession.- Yes.
0:12:26 > 0:12:32Which is that, at this moment, I am just learning to drive,
0:12:32 > 0:12:35so I am actually spending a little bit of time
0:12:35 > 0:12:40driving on the right myself, even though I know I shouldn't be.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43I see. Hang on, let's just find out if that counts. Does that count?
0:12:43 > 0:12:48No, it's not countries where Declan drives on the right, I'm afraid.
0:12:48 > 0:12:52So, you want it where it is the law of the land. Fine.
0:12:52 > 0:12:57- I am going to take a guess at Iceland.- OK. Iceland.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00You're going to take a guess. Let's see.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02No red line for you as you are joint high-scorers.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03How many people said Iceland?
0:13:06 > 0:13:09- It's right.- Oh! Ooh.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13- This could be good. - That's not bad at all. 8.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16There we go. 108 is your total.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Tim knows what he has to do now. APPLAUSE
0:13:18 > 0:13:22Well played. That means you've passed your theory test as well.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24- Excellent.- Thank, Rich.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26- Tim, welcome.- Hello.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29The winner of the very first series
0:13:29 > 0:13:32- of The Apprentice.- For my sins, yes.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- So, tell me, Lord Sugar.- Yes.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37When the cameras stop turning,
0:13:37 > 0:13:40is he a jolly old soul? Is he lovely?
0:13:40 > 0:13:43- You must know him pretty well. - I do know him relatively well.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Do you know what, he is a genuinely nice guy.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49- Don't get on the wrong side of him. - Right.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Don't ever give him something that's not true
0:13:51 > 0:13:53because you'll soon find out,
0:13:53 > 0:13:55but if you're in that trusted circle, the inner sanctum...
0:13:55 > 0:13:58That trusted circle is quite small, isn't it?
0:13:58 > 0:14:00- It depends how big you are.- OK.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03Now, Tim, you are on 100.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06- You have to score 7 or less.- I know.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09I'm going to have a stab.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12I'm going to say Qatar.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Qatar, says Tim. Qatar.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18There is your red line. You have to get below that to remain with us.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21Tim, best of luck. That's a punchy answer. Is it right though?
0:14:23 > 0:14:27- It's right.- Oh!- Where's it going to end up?- Come on, Tim.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Is it going to go below that red line?
0:14:30 > 0:14:33Yes, it is! 1! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:14:33 > 0:14:35- 1 for Qatar.- Whoo! - Very well done indeed.
0:14:35 > 0:14:40- 101 is your total. Through you go. - Whoo! We're up and off!
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Very, very well played, Tim, to keep your cool there.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47A very good answer and safely through.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52Now, Jacqueline, tell us how you got started in business.
0:14:52 > 0:14:57Well, my first job was working for Royal Doulton
0:14:57 > 0:14:59and I got bored there
0:14:59 > 0:15:02and decided to just go and work at Ann Summers for work experience,
0:15:02 > 0:15:05so I actually had no intention of staying.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08- That was where it started? - That's where it started.
0:15:08 > 0:15:09And since you've been at the helm,
0:15:09 > 0:15:11it's just turned round completely.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15It wasn't doing badly, but it's now a massive brand.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17But if you think that the percentage
0:15:17 > 0:15:19of our female customers at that time was 10%
0:15:19 > 0:15:23and today, we're virtually a female institution,
0:15:23 > 0:15:27with 80% of our customers in our store being women.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31Very good. Now, Jacqueline, you are through to the next round, which is great news.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34- What are you going to go for?- Um...
0:15:35 > 0:15:37- I'm going to go for Dubai.- Dubai.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40- Yes.- Jacqueline says Dubai. No red line as you're already through.
0:15:40 > 0:15:41Let's see how many people said Dubai.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49An incorrect answer, scores you 100 points. Takes your total up to 104,
0:15:49 > 0:15:51but you are through, so it couldn't matter less.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53Almost an inspired risk though,
0:15:53 > 0:15:55cos Dubai is in the United Arab Emirates
0:15:55 > 0:15:58and United Arab Emirates was a pointless answer,
0:15:58 > 0:16:01so would have been a terrific one. There are 71 pointless answers.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Let's go through a few of them.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14I can't believe no-one said Dominican Republic! Goodness me.
0:16:18 > 0:16:22You could have had Belize, Bahrain, Cambodia, Congo, Equatorial Guinea,
0:16:22 > 0:16:26Ethiopia, Laos, Madagascar. Let's look at the top three answers,
0:16:26 > 0:16:28the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30These are the ones where people have actually driven,
0:16:30 > 0:16:33so they know for a fact. A lot of the other countries are lotteries.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Here are the top three.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45That's why Andorra was such a brilliant answer by Richard.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47You know France and you know Spain -
0:16:47 > 0:16:51by process of elimination, Andorra's got to be a correct answer.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Thanks, Richard. So, at the end of our first round,
0:16:53 > 0:16:56the pair heading home, with our high score of 108,
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- Declan and Michelle, it is you. - I'm so sorry.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Listen, we've all learnt something about Ireland.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04And, Michelle, you've learnt something about Pointless.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06I'm sorry you had to learn the hard way.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08But I hope you'll come back and play again.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12I'm not sure about that. I was just thinking about...
0:17:12 > 0:17:13I totally got the question wrong.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16That's why I thought I was being clever with Ireland.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- I'm sorry, Declan.- Doesn't matter.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21It's been lovely having you on. Thank you, Declan and Michelle.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23APPLAUSE
0:17:23 > 0:17:26For the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:17:26 > 0:17:30APPLAUSE
0:17:30 > 0:17:32We're down to three pairs. At the end of this round,
0:17:32 > 0:17:35we'll have to say goodbye to another of our pairs.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38I wonder who that's going to be. Tim, congratulations.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42Lowest individual score of the round - very well done - with Qatar.
0:17:42 > 0:17:47Jeff and Peter, congratulations to you, as our lowest combined score.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51And Jacqueline and Richard, just well done, you made it through.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55Oh, we had some big scores in that round...Saira and Jacqueline.
0:17:55 > 0:18:00Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two is...
0:18:02 > 0:18:03Television.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Can you decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15The question concerns...
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Fictional bosses, Richard.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23On each board, we'll show you the names
0:18:23 > 0:18:25of six fictional bosses from TV programmes.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28We need you to tell us the name of the TV programme they're from.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30We'll give you the initials of that programme in brackets.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34There'll be six on each board, 12 in all to have a go at home. Good luck.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38Let's reveal our first board of fictional bosses and here they come.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53I'll read those one last time.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Jacqueline, we come to you first. We're looking for the one you think
0:19:04 > 0:19:07the fewest of our 100 people could get.
0:19:07 > 0:19:11I know two but it's working out which is the least popular.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16- I'm going to go David Brent, The Office.- The Office, says Jacqueline.
0:19:16 > 0:19:20Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25It's right.
0:19:25 > 0:19:2973. APPLAUSE
0:19:29 > 0:19:32- 73. Not bad. - Yeah, a lot better than 100.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35It's been remade in hundreds of countries, The Office.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Well, not hundreds of countries, but it's been made all over the place.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42It's been made in lots of places where they drive on the right too.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46- Thanks, Rich. Saira.- Hmmm... Oh!
0:19:48 > 0:19:50TP...
0:19:51 > 0:19:55OK, I'm going to go for the one I know and I know it's high, OK,
0:19:55 > 0:19:58- so it's Don Draper, Mad Men. - Mad Men, says Saira.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01- It's really high, I'm sorry. - We don't know.- It is.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03There will be other high scores in the round, I'm sure.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07Let's see how many of our 100 people said Mad Men for Don Draper.
0:20:07 > 0:20:08Really lots.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12It's right.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15No, not that many!
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- 24!- Oh! Whoa! - There you go.- Well done.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21- That's not bad!- 24, Saira.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Not a bad score at all. Played by Jon Hamm.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26That's one of those programmes that's talked about
0:20:26 > 0:20:29in certain circles a lot but not watched a great deal,
0:20:29 > 0:20:32so 24 would be about right, I think.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35Thanks, Richard. Now, Peter. The board's all yours.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Talk us through it and fill in the blanks for us,
0:20:38 > 0:20:40then say which one you want to submit as your answer.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43No, I don't want to talk you through it and fill in the blanks,
0:20:43 > 0:20:47cos I can't. I'm going to go for George Cowley, The Professionals.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50- The Professionals. SAIRA:- Oh!
0:20:50 > 0:20:54- There you are.- You see. - You see, The Professionals.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Let's see how many of our 100 people said The Professionals.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02It's right. You passed 73.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05You passed 24. Look at that.
0:21:05 > 0:21:0716. Well done, Peter. APPLAUSE
0:21:07 > 0:21:09That was all you needed to know.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11That's the lowest score of the pass. 16.
0:21:11 > 0:21:16Very solid on that last podium. Played by Gordon Jackson, of course.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Well worked out.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21Let's fill in the rest of this board. The top one, Ron Swanson,
0:21:21 > 0:21:26is an absolutely brilliant American sitcom - Parks And Recreation.
0:21:26 > 0:21:30Well done if you said that. 6 points - best answer on the board.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35- Bernard Black is...- Black Books. - Black Books, played by Dylan Moran.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38And Daniel Meade, you can work it out from the initials, probably.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42- Ugly Betty.- Oh!- Ugly Betty!
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Thanks, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Let's take a look at those scores. 16, the best score of the pass.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49Well done, Peter.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Then up to 24 where we find Saira and Tim
0:21:51 > 0:21:54and then 73, Jacqueline and Richard.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Who knows what the next board's going to be like.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00Richard, we will definitely need a low score from you, so best of luck.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:22:05 > 0:22:10Let's put six more fictional bosses up on the board and here they are.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27I'll read those one last time.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41OK, so, Jeff, over to you.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44I've got to get this...right.
0:22:46 > 0:22:47I don't want to sound too full of it,
0:22:47 > 0:22:50but I've never lost a quiz in my whole life.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54You've always been the top team, you mean, or...?
0:22:54 > 0:22:58No, never, ever lost anything in my life. It's irritating.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00This is the first quiz he's been in, to be fair.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02LAUGHTER
0:23:02 > 0:23:07OK. I am going for "Are You Being Served?", Young Mr Grace.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10It isn't going to score me particularly low, but...
0:23:10 > 0:23:13"Are You Being Served?", says Jeff. Here's your red line.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15If you get below this, it's good enough.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19Let's see how many of our 100 said "Are You Being Served?".
0:23:21 > 0:23:22It's right.
0:23:25 > 0:23:2966. 66 takes your total up to 82.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31APPLAUSE
0:23:31 > 0:23:35They made an Australian version of "Are You Being Served?"
0:23:35 > 0:23:37and John Inman played the same character.
0:23:37 > 0:23:43- That's quite fun, isn't it?- Nice. - Very nice. Thank you. OK, Tim.- Yes.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45You need to score 57 or less.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47- I do.- 57 or less.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Do you think you can do it?
0:23:49 > 0:23:52Well, Saira's put a bit of pressure on, so I'm going to have to try.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56- Come on, Tim. - I'm going to pick Colonel K
0:23:56 > 0:23:57and Danger Mouse.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Danger Mouse, says Tim.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01Danger Mouse - a subject close to my heart.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04There is your red line. Get below that with Danger Mouse,
0:24:04 > 0:24:08you are through to the next round. How many people said it?
0:24:11 > 0:24:12You're right.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15You've done it, well done. Very well done indeed.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Through you go to the head-to-head.
0:24:17 > 0:24:1916 for Danger Mouse.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21Good answer. 40 is your total.
0:24:21 > 0:24:25- APPLAUSE - Whoo!- Very well played, Tim.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- Now, of course, who's the new voice of Danger Mouse?- Well...
0:24:28 > 0:24:30- It's your good self.- It's me! - Yes, it is.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33- Yeah, and you're in it as well. - I am, yeah, very briefly.
0:24:33 > 0:24:34I'm Professor Jellyfishowitz.
0:24:34 > 0:24:39- But the voice of Colonel K in the new one is Stephen Fry.- Yeah.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Now, then, we come to you, Richard.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Talk us through the board
0:24:43 > 0:24:45and find a really low-scoring answer.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Do you really think businesspeople stay at home and watch these shows?
0:24:48 > 0:24:51- Yeah.- You've got to unwind somehow, haven't you?
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Well, I only know one of them.
0:24:53 > 0:24:58I'm going for Charles Montgomery Burns because he's the boss
0:24:58 > 0:25:00- on The Simpsons. - The Simpsons, says Richard.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Here comes your red line.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05That's what you'd have to get below to remain with us.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07I don't want to give anything away,
0:25:07 > 0:25:11but let's see how far down the column you get with The Simpsons.
0:25:16 > 0:25:17Oh!
0:25:17 > 0:25:2159, Richard. I'm sorry. 59 takes your total up to 132.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23APPLAUSE
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Unlucky, Richard, it's a valiant effort.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27We'll take you through the rest of the board now.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30CJ is the character who used to say,
0:25:30 > 0:25:33"I didn't get where I am today by..."
0:25:33 > 0:25:37From The Fall And Rise Of Reginald Perrin.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40- 17 points.- Yeah.
0:25:40 > 0:25:44Denholm Reynholm is from The IT Crowd.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46Chris Morris played him
0:25:46 > 0:25:48and replaced by Douglas Reynholm, played by Matt Berry.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51And the answer that would have seen you through
0:25:51 > 0:25:53is Captain Harold Dobey from...
0:25:53 > 0:25:56- Starsky And Hutch. - Starsky And Hutch.- ALL:- Oh!
0:25:56 > 0:25:59Would have scored 7 points. Well done if you said that at home.
0:25:59 > 0:26:04- Is that Boss Hogg?- No.- No. - It's captain Harold Dobey.- OK.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08We're supposed to do BETTER than Solomon, not worse than Solomon.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11- I thought his nickname was Boss Hogg. Sorry.- Thanks, Richard.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14So, at the end of our second round, the pair heading home
0:26:14 > 0:26:16with our high score of 132, Richard and Jacqueline,
0:26:16 > 0:26:20I'm sorry, it is you. It wasn't the best match of rounds for you, sorry.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23We could have served you better.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25No complaints. That's competition.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28- It's healthy competition. We enjoyed it.- We've enjoyed it.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32Lovely having you on. Come back and play again. Richard and Jacqueline.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35APPLAUSE
0:26:35 > 0:26:39For Saira and Tim and Jeff and Peter, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41APPLAUSE
0:26:42 > 0:26:45Congratulations, Jeff and Peter, Saira and Tim.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47You're now one step closer to the final
0:26:47 > 0:26:52and a chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands at £2,500.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:26:54 > 0:26:58This is the round where we decide who goes through to the final
0:26:58 > 0:27:01and plays for that jackpot and we do that by making you go head-to-head.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05You start playing as teams and the first player to win two questions
0:27:05 > 0:27:08will be playing for that jackpot. Well done indeed.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10It's Four Rooms versus The Apprentice.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13We've had good answers and not so good answers from both of you,
0:27:13 > 0:27:15but now you can put your heads together.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18You should be pretty evenly matched, so it should be exciting.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20Best of luck. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22APPLAUSE
0:27:25 > 0:27:28Here's your first question and it concerns...
0:27:31 > 0:27:33Purple Plants, Richard.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35We're going to show you five pictures of purple flora
0:27:35 > 0:27:37and you've got to give their common name.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39We're going to give you the initials as well.
0:27:39 > 0:27:43Let's reveal our five purple plants and here they come.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07There we are. Five purple plants.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10Jeff and Peter, you've been our lowest scorers in total,
0:28:10 > 0:28:13so you will go first. Feel free to confer.
0:28:13 > 0:28:20OK, we're stuck between C and D and when we're stuck,
0:28:20 > 0:28:24I have to consult my friend, the dice.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27- One to three... - (Juniper, it's juniper.)
0:28:27 > 0:28:30..we're going to go for C,
0:28:30 > 0:28:33four to six, D.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35We're going to go for D.
0:28:36 > 0:28:41- Oh, D it is.- TOGETHER:- Juniper.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44OK, we shall see. You've gone for D, juniper.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47Now then, Saira and Tim, talk us through the board,
0:28:47 > 0:28:49tell us the ones you think you know.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52We know all of them and we knew juniper as well.
0:28:52 > 0:28:55- That was the one we were going to go for.- Tell us them all.
0:28:55 > 0:28:59Foxglove, violet, hyacinth, I think, and wisteria.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02- Which do you think people will know? - I would go with wisteria.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05- OK, I'm going to give it to you. - Yeah?- Yeah, you're my boy.
0:29:05 > 0:29:07OK, you're going to go wisteria.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10So, from Jeff and Peter, we have juniper for D.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13Let's see if it's right and how many people said juniper.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17It's right.
0:29:20 > 0:29:21It's right. 41.
0:29:21 > 0:29:25APPLAUSE
0:29:25 > 0:29:28Saira and Tim have said that E is wisteria.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 said wisteria.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35It's right.
0:29:37 > 0:29:3950 for wisteria.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41APPLAUSE
0:29:41 > 0:29:46The big question is what would hyacinth have scored, I wonder.
0:29:46 > 0:29:50- It means, Jeff and Peter, after one question, you're up 1-0.- Well done.
0:29:50 > 0:29:53If you'd said hyacinth, you'd have scored 100 points.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56- It's not hyacinth.- Oh!- See, I told you.- What did you guys think it was?
0:29:56 > 0:29:58PETER AND Jeff: Hydrangea.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00So the big question is, was the dice right?
0:30:00 > 0:30:04What scores more - juniper or hydrangea?
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Juniper scored 41,
0:30:06 > 0:30:08hydrangea scored 22.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10- Really?- Yeah.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13Best answer on the board, hydrangea.
0:30:13 > 0:30:14A is foxglove.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21- Violet would have scored 62.- Yeah.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23Biggest scorer of the lot.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25So, hydrangea the best answer.
0:30:25 > 0:30:29And also, a lucky escape for the dice cos the dice sort of got you through,
0:30:29 > 0:30:32although it didn't particularly answer the question you asked it,
0:30:32 > 0:30:35but there we are. Here comes your second question.
0:30:35 > 0:30:37Saira and Tim, you have to win this to stay in the game.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41Best of luck. You do get to answer it first. It concerns...
0:30:43 > 0:30:46- Opera And Ballet Music. - That's their bag.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49We're going to play you five clips now of famous operas or ballets.
0:30:49 > 0:30:54- We need you to tell us the composer in each of these cases.- What?!
0:30:54 > 0:30:57- The composer?! - Sorry, I didn't mean the composer.
0:30:57 > 0:30:59I meant the trombonist.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01LAUGHTER
0:31:01 > 0:31:03Stop talking! No more, no more!
0:31:03 > 0:31:06LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
0:31:06 > 0:31:11OK, so let's listen to these five excerpts. Here we go.
0:31:11 > 0:31:17# Ma il mio mistero chiuso in me
0:31:17 > 0:31:24# Il nome mio nessun sapra, no, no
0:31:24 > 0:31:29# Sulla tua bocca... #
0:31:29 > 0:31:31Here's B.
0:31:31 > 0:31:35MUSIC: Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy from The Nutcracker
0:31:46 > 0:31:48Here's C.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51MUSIC: Dance Of The Knights from Romeo And Juliet
0:31:51 > 0:31:53Never heard of it! Never heard of it!
0:32:00 > 0:32:04MUSIC COVERS SPEECH
0:32:04 > 0:32:06Here is D.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09# Largo al factotum della citta Largo
0:32:10 > 0:32:12# La la la la la la la la
0:32:12 > 0:32:17# Presto a bottega che l'alba e gia Presto
0:32:17 > 0:32:19# La la la la la la la la... #
0:32:21 > 0:32:23And here is E.
0:32:23 > 0:32:29# Summertime... #
0:32:29 > 0:32:31No idea.
0:32:31 > 0:32:38# And the living is easy... #
0:32:38 > 0:32:41OK, there we are. Now, Saira and Tim, you will go first.
0:32:41 > 0:32:46This is our Achilles heel, I think. We'll just take a guess at C.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49- No, le's just confer cos we might get it.- Just take a guess at C.
0:32:49 > 0:32:54- Hold on. C?- Yeah.- It's not even called The Apprentice.- I know that!
0:32:54 > 0:32:56I know that!
0:32:56 > 0:32:59- It's the composer he wants. - OK, all right. Oh, yeah. Go on.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01It's the composer, remember, that we're after.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03Yeah, we're going to say C, Beethoven.
0:33:03 > 0:33:08OK, C, Beethoven, say Tim and Saira. Now, Jeff and Peter.
0:33:08 > 0:33:13I think we'll deal with D which was Summertime. Was that by Gershwin?
0:33:13 > 0:33:17Well, we think... Yeah, I think it was E, actually.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20- But are we safest with B, do you think?- Probably safest with B.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24We think B and we think it's The Nutcracker and Tchaikovsky.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27Tchaikovsky, say Jeff and Peter. Tchaikovsky.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30So, we have Beethoven and Tchaikovsky.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Saira and Tim said Beethoven for C.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Let's see if that's right and how many said it.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39- Uh-er.- No, I'm afraid not Beethoven.
0:33:39 > 0:33:42Now, Jeff and Peter have said Tchaikovsky for B.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47It just has to be right at this point.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52- It's right!- Yes! - And you win the point. Well done.
0:33:52 > 0:33:5558. APPLAUSE
0:33:55 > 0:33:57Good enough, Jeff and Peter.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00That means, after two questions, you're through to the final, 2-0.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03Well played. We've gone very high-end, all of a sudden,
0:34:03 > 0:34:05with plants and then classical music.
0:34:05 > 0:34:09- It's almost like the producer's trying to win a BAFTA.- Yeah!
0:34:09 > 0:34:11- Good luck with that. - Good luck with that, yeah.
0:34:11 > 0:34:16Now, we'll take a tiny listen to each of them and say who they are.
0:34:16 > 0:34:18# Ma il mio mistero... #
0:34:18 > 0:34:22That's Nessun Dorma from Turandot by Puccini.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24- Oh, Puccini!- Puccini.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26That would have scored you 22.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28Let's have a listen to C.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31MUSIC: Dance Of The Knights from Romeo And Juliet
0:34:31 > 0:34:33- What is it called? - That's so annoying.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36- It's called The Apprentice. - Oh, it IS called The Apprentice!
0:34:36 > 0:34:41- And it's by Lord Sugar.- It's from Romeo And Juliet by Prokofiev.
0:34:41 > 0:34:45- Prokofiev, the answer.- Oh, that's it!- Would have scored you 15 points.
0:34:45 > 0:34:49- Oh, that was good.- Mmm. - Let's listen to D.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52# Largo al factotum della citta... #
0:34:52 > 0:34:57That's from The Barber Of Seville by Rossini. Would have scored you 7.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59# Presto a bottega che l'alba e gia... #
0:34:59 > 0:35:01- And Jeff, you were right on the last one.- Oh!
0:35:01 > 0:35:06It is, of course, Summertime from Porgy And Bess by George Gershwin.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08Would have scored 31.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10There we are.
0:35:10 > 0:35:14That means the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:35:14 > 0:35:15I'm sorry, Saira and Tim.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18- Had you got hydrangea, it could all have been very different.- Indeed.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21But I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to you.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23It's been brilliant having you on the show.
0:35:23 > 0:35:24- Saira and Tim.- Thank you.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27APPLAUSE
0:35:27 > 0:35:30For Jeff and Peter, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32APPLAUSE
0:35:33 > 0:35:37Congratulations, Jeff and Peter. You have seen off all the competition
0:35:37 > 0:35:40and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48- Whoo!- Miracles, miracles.- Miracles.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot for your charities
0:35:51 > 0:35:55and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £2,500.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57APPLAUSE
0:35:57 > 0:36:00Jeff, you said you've never lost anything in your life
0:36:00 > 0:36:03and so it has proven. It's incredible.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05You've come through, you've been shaking your dice,
0:36:05 > 0:36:08you've been answering, by and large, quite well.
0:36:08 > 0:36:11The first round, extremely low scores from you, so it's good.
0:36:11 > 0:36:13And here you are. You have ended up here.
0:36:13 > 0:36:16What would you like to see come up in this last round, Jeff?
0:36:16 > 0:36:20Er, I'd like to see...music
0:36:20 > 0:36:25between 1967 and April '68.
0:36:25 > 0:36:27LAUGHTER
0:36:27 > 0:36:29- Peter?- Um...
0:36:31 > 0:36:33- Motor racing. Formula 1.- OK.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36You get to choose your category from the board we put up behind me.
0:36:36 > 0:36:39Let's hope there's something you like the look of today.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Today's selection is...
0:36:47 > 0:36:49What do you think?
0:36:49 > 0:36:56I think that both I and you will know something about the year 2004.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00Ballet Films, I have to say, is not a strong point.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03Royal Families - it could be any royal family.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05American Crime Writers...
0:37:06 > 0:37:09- Not a strong point for me at all. - 2004.
0:37:09 > 0:37:142004. Did the dice say 2004? The dice said 2004.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17- OK, Richard.- Very best of luck. Three very different questions here.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Hopefully, one of these will suit you.
0:37:19 > 0:37:21We are looking for any artist or band
0:37:21 > 0:37:23who had a number one single in 2004,
0:37:23 > 0:37:26according to The Official Charts Company.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29We are looking for any participant
0:37:29 > 0:37:31in the first ever series of Strictly Come Dancing.
0:37:31 > 0:37:35That's any of the celebrities or any of their dance partners.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38Or anybody who won a medal of any colour for Team GB
0:37:38 > 0:37:40in the Athens Olympics of 2004.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42So, acts who had UK number one singles,
0:37:42 > 0:37:45any participant on Strictly Come Dancing
0:37:45 > 0:37:48or any athletes at all who won a medal of any type
0:37:48 > 0:37:51for Team GB in the Athens Olympics.
0:37:51 > 0:37:55As always, you've got up to a minute to come up with three answers.
0:37:55 > 0:37:56All you need to win that jackpot
0:37:56 > 0:38:00is for just one of those answers to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:38:00 > 0:38:06- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. Your time starts now.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09OK, let's not...
0:38:09 > 0:38:16I don't think that Steve Redgrave would be a pointless answer.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18Who did he row with?
0:38:19 > 0:38:22Don't ask me that, Jeff.
0:38:22 > 0:38:27Um, I think I'm doing well getting Steve Redgrave. Number one in 2004.
0:38:27 > 0:38:32- In 2004...- We've got to give the name of the song AND the artist?
0:38:32 > 0:38:36- Just the artist.- Just the artist. - Just the artist, OK.
0:38:36 > 0:38:40- Well, I would say, 2004, Kylie Minogue?- No.
0:38:42 > 0:38:45Strictly Come Dancing, I haven't got a clue.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50- Number one singles. - UK number one singles in 2004.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53INAUDIBLE DISCUSSION
0:38:55 > 0:38:58- You can try.- Ten seconds left. - I'm happy to try that.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04- We're ready.- Yeah. - We're struggling but we're ready.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07OK, that is your time up.
0:39:07 > 0:39:10Now, I need your three answers. What are you going to go for?
0:39:10 > 0:39:13Team GB medallists at the Athens Olympics, Steve Redgrave.
0:39:13 > 0:39:15Steve Redgrave - lovely.
0:39:15 > 0:39:18Number one singles, we are really unsure of,
0:39:18 > 0:39:21- but I think punt for Kylie Minogue. - Kylie Minogue.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25- Strictly Come Dancing, um... - Oh, 2004...
0:39:25 > 0:39:272004... Could be...
0:39:29 > 0:39:31Rod Hull and Emu.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34Rod Hull and Emu - that's a partnership, isn't it?
0:39:34 > 0:39:36- The dice didn't say that. - There we are.
0:39:36 > 0:39:40Of those three answers, what is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:40 > 0:39:42- I think the top one.- I agree. - UK number one singles.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44OK, we'll put Kylie last.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46Least likely to be pointless, I'm guessing,
0:39:46 > 0:39:50- is probably Rod Hull and Emu. - Yeah.- We'll put them first.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54Let's pop those answers on the board in that order. We've got...
0:39:58 > 0:40:01Best of luck. Three answers on the board there.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04Who knows, one of them might end up being pointless.
0:40:04 > 0:40:06If that were to happen, you would win that jackpot.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08What charities are you playing for?
0:40:08 > 0:40:12- Jeff?- I'm playing for the Teenage Cancer Trust.- And Peter?
0:40:12 > 0:40:16- I'm playing for Cancer Research UK. - Very good.
0:40:16 > 0:40:19APPLAUSE
0:40:19 > 0:40:21Two excellent charities there.
0:40:21 > 0:40:25Let's hope one of these answers might win that jackpot for them.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28Your first answer, we were looking for participants
0:40:28 > 0:40:31in the original series of Strictly Come Dancing in 2004.
0:40:31 > 0:40:34- You went for Rod Hull and Emu. - Good answer, Jeff.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37It has to be right, then pointless, for you to win the jackpot,
0:40:37 > 0:40:41so for £2,500, let's see how many people said Rod Hull and Emu.
0:40:44 > 0:40:45- Nope.- Oh, that's a surprise.
0:40:45 > 0:40:49An incorrect answer, which means only two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51Your second answer was Steve Redgrave.
0:40:51 > 0:40:55We were looking for medal winners from Team GB at the Athens Olympics.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58Let's see how many people said Steve Redgrave.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00For £2,500, is it right? Is it pointless?
0:41:03 > 0:41:06- No!- Oh.- Bad luck.
0:41:06 > 0:41:07Incorrect, which means
0:41:07 > 0:41:10everything is now riding on your third and final answer.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12We were looking for UK number ones from 2004
0:41:12 > 0:41:15and you answered Kylie Minogue.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19Let's see, for £2,500, is it right? Is it pointless?
0:41:21 > 0:41:24- No, bad luck!- Oh!- Oh, I'm sorry.
0:41:24 > 0:41:27Three big red crosses there.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29APPLAUSE
0:41:29 > 0:41:31You didn't manage to find that vital pointless answer.
0:41:31 > 0:41:34You didn't manage to find that vital CORRECT answer,
0:41:34 > 0:41:38so I'm afraid you don't go away with today's jackpot for your charities.
0:41:38 > 0:41:39However, as it is a celebrity special
0:41:39 > 0:41:41and each celebrity is playing for a charity,
0:41:41 > 0:41:44we are going to donate £500 to each celebrity pair
0:41:44 > 0:41:47so you can split that between your charities.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49- APPLAUSE - All right, mate, well done.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52It's been great having you on the show.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55You played very well throughout and don't forget, you get to take home
0:41:55 > 0:41:57a Pointless trophy for your troubles, so there we are.
0:41:57 > 0:41:59- Great stuff.- Valiant effort.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02Steve Redgrave's last medal was in 2000, I'm afraid.
0:42:02 > 0:42:05Kylie Minogue had three top ten singles in 2004, but no number ones.
0:42:05 > 0:42:08Let's take a look at the pointless answers in the different categories.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10UK number ones.
0:42:10 > 0:42:15Busted had two number ones in that year. McFly had two number ones.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18Streets - Dry Your Eyes was a number one.
0:42:18 > 0:42:20In fact, every number one artist was pointless,
0:42:20 > 0:42:22apart from Girls Aloud, Robbie Williams, Eminem,
0:42:22 > 0:42:25Natasha Bedingfield, Peter Andre, U2 and Britney Spears.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27Everybody else was pointless.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29Let's take a look at the Strictly participants.
0:42:29 > 0:42:33Erin Boag was one of the professional dancers.
0:42:33 > 0:42:37Again, everything pointless, apart from Natasha Kaplinsky,
0:42:37 > 0:42:40Brendan Cole, Anton du Beke, Camilla Dallerup and Christopher Parker.
0:42:40 > 0:42:43Everyone else was pointless there.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45And the athletes.
0:42:45 > 0:42:46Amir Khan.
0:42:46 > 0:42:48Ed Coode was one of the rowers.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51Steve Williams, another of the rowers, also a pointless answer.
0:42:51 > 0:42:55Kelly Sotherton, the heptathlete, got a bronze and Rebecca Romero.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57Everyone was pointless, apart from Kelly Holmes, Chris Hoy,
0:42:57 > 0:43:00Matthew Pinsent, Bradley Wiggins, Darren Campbell, Ben Ainslie,
