CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:00:150:00:16

Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong.

0:00:230:00:26

And a very warm welcome to this special health and fitness -

0:00:260:00:28

obviously - edition of Pointless Celebrities.

0:00:280:00:31

This is the quiz where we have asked all the questions

0:00:310:00:33

to 100 people before the show, and all our celebrities have to do

0:00:330:00:36

is come up with the answers no-one else thought of.

0:00:360:00:38

Let's meet today's Pointless celebrities.

0:00:380:00:40

APPLAUSE

0:00:400:00:42

And couple number one.

0:00:440:00:46

Hi, I'm Dr Dawn, part-time GP in Gloucestershire

0:00:460:00:49

and part-time TV presenter and part-time author.

0:00:490:00:53

I'm Dr Pixie McKenna.

0:00:530:00:55

Like Dawn, GP, do some telly

0:00:550:00:56

and have absolutely no general knowledge.

0:00:560:00:59

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:00:590:01:00

Couple number two.

0:01:030:01:05

I'm Robin Cousins,

0:01:050:01:06

and I'm an Olympic gold medallist in figure skating.

0:01:060:01:09

And I'm Rosemary Conley, and I'm a diet and fitness expert.

0:01:090:01:12

APPLAUSE

0:01:120:01:13

-Couple number three.

-Hello, I'm Iwan Thomas.

0:01:160:01:18

I used to basically run round in a circle,

0:01:180:01:20

got a medal from every single major championships

0:01:200:01:23

but it's all irrelevant cos the only medal I care about is...

0:01:230:01:25

Don't like to talk about it,

0:01:250:01:27

but I am a reigning Pointless champion with my mate, Kath.

0:01:270:01:29

We won this before.

0:01:290:01:31

-LAUGHTER

-So that's it.

0:01:310:01:33

Katharine Merry, fellow Olympic medallist over 400 metres,

0:01:330:01:36

turned broadcaster and, yes,

0:01:360:01:38

a proud owner of a Pointless trophy with a pointless answer.

0:01:380:01:41

So downhill is the only way we're probably going to go. Yeah!

0:01:410:01:44

ALEXANDER LAUGHS

0:01:440:01:46

-And, finally, couple number four.

-Hello, I'm Dr Chris Steele,

0:01:480:01:52

I'm a retired GP and resident doctor on ITV's This Morning programme.

0:01:520:01:57

And I'm Lizzie Webb, a fitness teacher.

0:01:570:01:59

Yay! APPLAUSE

0:01:590:02:01

Thanks very much, all of you. We'll find out more about each of you

0:02:020:02:05

throughout the show as it goes along.

0:02:050:02:07

That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:02:070:02:09

He's currently writing a novel about a quiz show host

0:02:090:02:12

who kills his presenter.

0:02:120:02:13

LAUGHTER

0:02:130:02:15

I can't wait to read it. It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.

0:02:150:02:17

-APPLAUSE

-Hiya.

0:02:170:02:19

Everybody...good evening.

0:02:190:02:22

You say it's a novel, you just stumbled across my plan.

0:02:220:02:25

That was all. I just had to pretend it was a novel.

0:02:250:02:27

-This'll be fun, won't it?

-Yeah.

-Health and fitness.

-Yeah, I know.

0:02:270:02:30

-I like your headband.

-I like yours, too.

-Oh, thank you.

0:02:300:02:33

Like we're in different gangs.

0:02:330:02:34

-Oh, you're from the Hot Gang, I'm from the Cold.

-Yeah, exactly that.

0:02:340:02:37

-Now you, you've hurt your back, haven't you?

-I have.

0:02:370:02:40

-It's rather a timely show for you.

-It is timely.

0:02:400:02:42

I would imagine, between our doctors and our fitness experts, somebody...

0:02:420:02:45

-Somebody.

-..will be able to cure you.

0:02:450:02:47

I haven't even thought about that.

0:02:470:02:49

-We could exchange information, that would work!

-Yeah, yeah.

0:02:490:02:51

OK, I see what you're saying. All right.

0:02:510:02:53

I'll scratch your back, you can manipulate mine.

0:02:530:02:56

Perfect. LAUGHTER

0:02:560:02:57

If you think, for one second, that Xander has the answers,

0:02:570:02:59

-you have not watched this show before.

-Yeah.

0:02:590:03:02

LAUGHTER

0:03:020:03:03

Well, thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:03:030:03:05

As usual, all of today's questions have been put

0:03:050:03:07

to 100 people before the show. Our contestants here are looking for

0:03:070:03:10

those all-important pointless answers,

0:03:100:03:11

these being the answers that none of our 100 people gave.

0:03:110:03:14

Should you find one of those, we will add £250 to the jackpot.

0:03:140:03:17

Now, as today's show is a celebrity special,

0:03:170:03:20

all of our celebrities are playing for a nominated charity.

0:03:200:03:22

We start off with a jackpot of £2,500. There we are.

0:03:220:03:25

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:03:250:03:27

Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:03:280:03:31

Well, as I'm sure you don't need to be reminded,

0:03:370:03:40

the pair with the highest score at the end of each round

0:03:400:03:43

will be eliminated.

0:03:430:03:45

So your job is to make sure you are not in that pair.

0:03:450:03:47

No conferring until we get to the head-to-head round. Best of luck.

0:03:470:03:50

Our first category this evening is...

0:03:500:03:53

It's a Words round. Always tough on podium one.

0:03:560:03:58

Can you decide on your pairs who's going to go first,

0:03:580:04:00

who's going to go second?

0:04:000:04:02

And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:04:020:04:05

OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:04:080:04:10

We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:04:100:04:15

..as they could. Words ending A-C-T. Richard.

0:04:170:04:21

Yep, any word in the English language ending A-C-T, please.

0:04:210:04:24

That's any word with its own entry in oxforddictionaries.com -

0:04:240:04:26

English section, please - that ends A-C-T.

0:04:260:04:29

As always, no proper nouns, no hyphenated words.

0:04:290:04:31

And we won't allow the word "act" itself.

0:04:310:04:34

OK. Now, Dawn, welcome.

0:04:340:04:36

-Thank you.

-A very, very warm welcome.

0:04:360:04:39

Now, you're Dr Dawn, Embarrassing Bodies.

0:04:390:04:41

What happens when you're ill?

0:04:410:04:43

Is there a partner in your practice that you go and see?

0:04:430:04:46

I'd probably phone Pixie, actually.

0:04:460:04:48

Or maybe just get the stethoscope, just...

0:04:480:04:50

HE BREATHES DEEPLY You can depress your own tongue.

0:04:500:04:52

Doctors fall in to two categories -

0:04:520:04:54

those that kind of ignore symptoms and just carry on with things

0:04:540:04:56

and those that every headache is a brain tumour, so I kind of...

0:04:560:05:00

Yeah, I don't really...

0:05:000:05:02

I don't really go to my own profession very often.

0:05:020:05:04

-Now, Dawn.

-Mm-hm?

0:05:040:05:06

-We can't put it off any longer.

-No, sadly!

0:05:060:05:08

These words ending A-C-T.

0:05:080:05:10

I'm going to go enact.

0:05:100:05:12

-Enact?

-Mm.

0:05:120:05:13

Enact, says Dawn.

0:05:130:05:15

Let's see how many of our 100 people said enact.

0:05:150:05:17

It's right.

0:05:200:05:21

That's a good start.

0:05:210:05:23

It's in the right part of the tower.

0:05:230:05:25

Look, 36 for enact.

0:05:250:05:27

APPLAUSE

0:05:270:05:29

36.

0:05:290:05:31

Yeah, enact - to bring a bill into law or to act out a role.

0:05:310:05:33

-A very good answer.

-OK, thanks very much indeed.

0:05:330:05:36

Now, Rosemary, a very, very warm welcome to Pointless to you.

0:05:360:05:40

-Thank you.

-The queen of the diet, I'm going to say.

0:05:400:05:43

Now, dieting is one of those things that, you know,

0:05:430:05:45

lots of different fads come and go.

0:05:450:05:47

Do you find that your basic principles have shifted a little bit

0:05:470:05:51

or have you stayed fairly solidly behind the original Conley diet?

0:05:510:05:56

Fairly consistently low fat is where I am singing from, really.

0:05:560:06:00

Any diet will work. It's a question of which is the right diet for you

0:06:000:06:04

and everybody, if they are trying to lose weight,

0:06:040:06:06

should involve some activity as well.

0:06:060:06:09

Now, Rosemary, words ending A-C-T.

0:06:090:06:12

Yes, well, I'm going to go with pact.

0:06:120:06:16

-Pact...

-Yeah.

-..says Rosemary.

0:06:160:06:18

Pact. OK.

0:06:180:06:19

Well, 36 for enact.

0:06:190:06:21

Let's see how far down we get with pact.

0:06:210:06:24

Ooh-ee.

0:06:280:06:29

Look at that, pact, 69.

0:06:290:06:31

69.

0:06:310:06:33

Yes, a formal agreement, a pact. That is a very, very big score.

0:06:330:06:36

Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:06:360:06:38

Uh, now, Iwan.

0:06:380:06:40

You are still the British record-holder for 400 metres.

0:06:400:06:44

18 years.

0:06:440:06:45

When you're looking down the results of the end of any athletics meet,

0:06:450:06:49

do you think,

0:06:490:06:50

do you look straight down the times to see, oh...hey, it's still mine?

0:06:500:06:53

Last year, I had the Commonwealth Games record

0:06:530:06:55

and that went to the great Kirani James.

0:06:550:06:57

So, as a lover of the sport,

0:06:570:06:59

I do want it to move forward

0:06:590:07:00

and I'd hope a British athlete would break my record but obviously,

0:07:000:07:03

being selfish, I love the fact that I'm old but still was fast.

0:07:030:07:07

-Very good. Now, Iwan.

-OK. So, hopefully, this is right.

0:07:070:07:13

This is something I don't think we'll do today,

0:07:130:07:15

winning last time - re-enact.

0:07:150:07:16

OK, re-enact says Iwan.

0:07:160:07:19

Let's see if it's right, let's how many people said it.

0:07:190:07:21

Oh, no.

0:07:240:07:25

-Oh, no.

-No!

0:07:250:07:27

Everything you have done is absolutely right.

0:07:270:07:29

I suspect it's only because there's a double E

0:07:290:07:31

that they have to hyphenate it.

0:07:310:07:33

Yes, a good wrong answer, but, yeah, it is hyphenated, I'm afraid.

0:07:330:07:37

Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:07:370:07:39

Now, Chris, a very warm welcome to Pointless.

0:07:390:07:42

Great to have you here.

0:07:420:07:44

Now, about this back, erm... No, I'm not going to ask you that.

0:07:440:07:47

Now, Chris, I mean, you said you were a retired GP?

0:07:470:07:51

You no longer have a practice?

0:07:510:07:52

No, I've been a GP for 40-odd years

0:07:520:07:55

and, um, I decided to retire,

0:07:550:07:59

which is very pleasant indeed.

0:07:590:08:02

So, you haven't retired at all,

0:08:020:08:03

because the whole nation is now your practice.

0:08:030:08:05

Well, yeah, the girls will know, wherever you go,

0:08:050:08:08

the supermarket or train station - "Hey, doc,

0:08:080:08:12

"can you just check this and check that check the other?"

0:08:120:08:14

It happens, it's OK.

0:08:140:08:16

OK, now, Chris, words ending A-C-T.

0:08:160:08:19

What are you going to go for?

0:08:190:08:20

I've got to go for a medical one -

0:08:200:08:22

cataract.

0:08:220:08:24

-Cataract. Ooh.

-I only know medical words, I don't know any other words!

0:08:240:08:29

OK, cataract. Let's see how many of our 100 people said cataract.

0:08:290:08:34

It's right.

0:08:350:08:37

36 is our lowest score at this point from Dr Dawn.

0:08:370:08:39

And you've passed it.

0:08:390:08:41

15.

0:08:410:08:42

APPLAUSE

0:08:420:08:43

-15 for cataract.

-Very well played, Chris.

0:08:470:08:50

Yeah, a condition of the eye, but, also,

0:08:500:08:52

a non-medical word because it is also a waterfall - a cataract.

0:08:520:08:54

Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:08:540:08:56

We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.

0:08:560:08:59

15, best score of the pass, Chris, very well done to you.

0:08:590:09:01

Chris and Lizzie looking very strong at this point, as, I would say,

0:09:010:09:04

are Dawn and Pixie on 36. Up to 69 we find Rosemary and Robin.

0:09:040:09:08

And then up to 100, Iwan and Katharine.

0:09:080:09:10

You never know, there might be another 100,

0:09:100:09:12

as long as it is not from you, Katharine.

0:09:120:09:14

You could get through

0:09:140:09:16

to the next round. It'd be lovely if you did.

0:09:160:09:18

Anyway, best of luck. We're going to come back down the line.

0:09:180:09:21

Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:09:210:09:24

So, Lizzie, a very warm welcome to Pointless to you.

0:09:260:09:30

This...

0:09:300:09:31

This is kind of in homage to you, Lizzie, this look.

0:09:310:09:34

-Do you member that?

-Of course, I remember it well.

0:09:340:09:37

Back in the '80s, I would say those sort of

0:09:370:09:39

morning shows, it was as much about health and fitness

0:09:390:09:42

as it was about anything else.

0:09:420:09:44

How did you get into it?

0:09:440:09:45

Well, I was teaching at Pineapple Dance Centre in Covent Garden

0:09:450:09:48

and various other places at the time

0:09:480:09:51

and Greg Dyke's PA was in one of my Saturday morning classes.

0:09:510:09:55

And he said, "I need someone to counteract the Green Goddess.

0:09:550:09:58

"Who could you suggest

0:09:580:09:59

"that's different?" She said, "I go to this mad lady who teaches us,"

0:09:590:10:04

and I've been called mad ever since.

0:10:040:10:06

So, Mad Lizzie, you arrived as Mad Lizzie.

0:10:060:10:10

Lorry drivers still call out when they drive pass,

0:10:100:10:12

-"Hello, Mad Lizzie!"

-Aw!

0:10:120:10:14

I think that's nice, isn't it? Yes.

0:10:140:10:16

I might prove I'm going to be quite mad now.

0:10:160:10:19

Well, I hope not, as long as you've

0:10:190:10:21

got a really good word ending A-C-T, which I have

0:10:210:10:23

-no doubt you will have.

-I'm trying. Well, it's between two.

0:10:230:10:26

-I'm going to go for distract.

-Distract. Distract, says Lizzie.

0:10:260:10:31

Now, the high-scorers are Katharine and Iwan. Skate over that.

0:10:310:10:34

Um, there is your red line, if you can get below that,

0:10:340:10:36

you're definitely into the next round.

0:10:360:10:38

Let's see how many people said distract.

0:10:380:10:40

It's right and you're through.

0:10:420:10:43

Oh, we're through!

0:10:430:10:45

Look, look, look, look, look.

0:10:450:10:48

Whoa.

0:10:480:10:49

There you go!

0:10:490:10:50

Lowest score of the round so far, Lizzie.

0:10:500:10:53

8 for distract.

0:10:530:10:54

23 is your total.

0:10:540:10:55

To prevent someone from concentrating.

0:10:550:10:58

-A very good answer. A very low score, isn't it?

-Mm.

0:10:580:11:00

Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:11:000:11:02

Now, Katharine...

0:11:020:11:04

-Mm-hm?

-Aged 14, you were the fastest

0:11:040:11:06

girl in the world.

0:11:060:11:08

Then aged 26, you were the fastest woman in the world over 400 metres.

0:11:080:11:12

That's an amazing thing to be, isn't it?

0:11:120:11:15

It's cool.

0:11:150:11:17

I like that.

0:11:170:11:18

-But aged 14!

-I know, I was very lucky.

0:11:180:11:20

I was just fast when I was young.

0:11:200:11:22

I just ran particularly fast

0:11:220:11:24

-for no major reason.

-And who spotted it

0:11:240:11:26

-and said, "Ooh, she's fast"?

-Like most

0:11:260:11:29

Olympic athletes, PE teacher.

0:11:290:11:31

It was a PE teacher that said "You look pretty nippy,

0:11:310:11:33

"you should try doing a bit of athletics."

0:11:330:11:36

I was doing gymnastics at the time so I retired gracefully from that...

0:11:360:11:40

-Give that up!

-Yeah, nine and three quarters, I retired.

0:11:400:11:42

It wasn't a loss to the sport, trust me.

0:11:420:11:44

Now, Katharine, what would you like to go for?

0:11:440:11:47

It's probably something I'd like to do

0:11:470:11:48

for Iwan's answer - retract.

0:11:480:11:51

-Retract?

-Yeah.

-Oh, they're so good.

0:11:510:11:53

-Mm.

-If they don't get through this round, we will miss you.

0:11:530:11:57

Retract - that's good answering. No red line, I'm afraid,

0:11:570:12:00

as you're the highest scorers

0:12:000:12:02

but let's see how many people said retract.

0:12:020:12:03

Come on.

0:12:060:12:07

APPLAUSE

0:12:110:12:13

-Good, though, good.

-20. 120 is your total.

0:12:140:12:17

Yeah, you might have just done enough.

0:12:170:12:20

If we get another 100 here, you'll stay in

0:12:200:12:22

but if we don't, you won't.

0:12:220:12:23

That's just me commentating.

0:12:230:12:26

That's some colour commentary.

0:12:260:12:28

Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:12:280:12:30

Now, Robin, a very warm welcome to you.

0:12:300:12:33

Gold medallist figure skater.

0:12:330:12:35

Now, when did you start doing that?

0:12:350:12:37

When did you realise...? Actually, no, let's go further back.

0:12:370:12:40

How did you do enough skating to realise how good you were?

0:12:400:12:44

I did whatever I could do when I wasn't supposed to be school.

0:12:440:12:48

So, if it was five o'clock

0:12:480:12:49

in the morning, on the weekends, you grab whatever time you've got,

0:12:490:12:53

whatever hour it is, and you don't know what you're doing

0:12:530:12:55

other than the fact that you have a great time when you are doing it.

0:12:550:12:58

Good answer. I suppose nobody has a private ice rink of their own.

0:12:580:13:02

-Or maybe they do?

-No, they don't.

0:13:020:13:04

So, presumably you have to go to public rinks.

0:13:040:13:07

You go at whatever time the public aren't using it.

0:13:070:13:09

So, early mornings or late at night.

0:13:090:13:11

I think the other athletes will tell you, if you want

0:13:110:13:14

and if you have a passion for something,

0:13:140:13:15

it doesn't matter what hour or

0:13:150:13:17

-where it is, you get on and do it. And it's that simple.

-Wow.

0:13:170:13:20

Yeah. Now then, Robin, 69 is your score at the moment.

0:13:200:13:24

You have to score 50 or less.

0:13:240:13:27

Abstract.

0:13:270:13:28

Oh, nice one.

0:13:280:13:29

-Oh, very good.

-Great.

-Abstract. Abstract.

-We shall see.

0:13:290:13:33

There is your red line....

0:13:330:13:35

-It looks a bit like Richard with his headband there.

-Oh, yeah.

0:13:350:13:38

There is your red line.

0:13:380:13:40

If you get below that with abstract, you are through to Round Two.

0:13:400:13:44

Very well done indeed.

0:13:470:13:49

Good answer.

0:13:500:13:51

Look at that. 9!

0:13:510:13:52

APPLAUSE

0:13:520:13:54

Second lowest answer of the round.

0:13:540:13:56

-78 is your total. Very well done.

-Great answer, Robin.

0:13:560:13:59

Very well played.

0:13:590:14:00

Yeah, your abstract is the channel between your abs.

0:14:000:14:03

LAUGHTER

0:14:030:14:05

Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:14:050:14:07

-Now, Pixie, welcome. Welcome, Pixie.

-Thank you.

0:14:070:14:11

So, Embarrassing Bodies,

0:14:110:14:12

has it been embarrassing for you?

0:14:120:14:14

-Have you had people coming up and just going...erm...erm...

-Yes.

0:14:140:14:18

-You are now... You have broken the taboo.

-Fair game...

-Yeah.

0:14:180:14:23

..especially if you're in the pub on a Saturday night.

0:14:230:14:25

And they're not lifting up, they're dropping down. Not good.

0:14:250:14:29

Oh, no, it's the dropping down!

0:14:290:14:30

Um, yes, now, Pixie, you have to score 83 or less.

0:14:300:14:35

83 or less with this answer.

0:14:350:14:37

Erm, I'm going to go with protract.

0:14:370:14:40

Wow. Protract. There's your red line.

0:14:400:14:42

If you can get below that, you're into the next round.

0:14:420:14:44

How many people said protract?

0:14:440:14:46

Look at that.

0:14:490:14:50

Brilliant! 11.

0:14:550:14:57

APPLAUSE

0:14:570:14:58

47 is your total.

0:14:580:15:00

-Very well played. We lose the champions.

-I know. I can't bear it.

0:15:020:15:05

I can't believe it. Listen,

0:15:050:15:06

they can't take it away from you. They can't take those trophies away.

0:15:060:15:09

Oh, I'm hearing they CAN take them away from you.

0:15:090:15:11

LAUGHTER

0:15:110:15:13

Let's take a look at the pointless answers.

0:15:130:15:15

Abreact. Cataphract, which is a soldier in full armour.

0:15:170:15:20

Outact. That's like the sentence,

0:15:200:15:22

"One of the main reasons I watch the Armstrong and Miller Show

0:15:220:15:25

is to watch one of the performers outact the other one.

0:15:250:15:28

LAUGHTER

0:15:280:15:29

Overexact is a pointless answer.

0:15:310:15:33

Subcompact, which is...

0:15:330:15:35

Americans use that to describe some of their cars as subcompact.

0:15:350:15:38

And ventifact which is a geological term

0:15:380:15:40

which I can't go into right now.

0:15:400:15:42

Let's look at the top three answers,

0:15:420:15:43

the ones that most of our 100 people said.

0:15:430:15:45

React would have scored you 62.

0:15:450:15:49

Pact is the second biggest answer of all on 69.

0:15:490:15:52

And right at the top, fact on 73.

0:15:520:15:54

Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:15:540:15:56

So, at the end of our first round,

0:15:560:15:58

it is my unpleasant duty to say goodbye to Katharine and Iwan.

0:15:580:16:01

It's been lovely having you on.

0:16:010:16:03

I mean, you know, you have shown what excellent form you have

0:16:030:16:06

in these words rounds, that should

0:16:060:16:07

really have seen you through,

0:16:070:16:09

but for that little hyphen. I don't know what to say.

0:16:090:16:12

-You just have to come back and soon.

-Pleasure.

0:16:120:16:15

Lovely to see you again.

0:16:150:16:16

Thanks so much for playing, Katharine and Iwan.

0:16:160:16:18

APPLAUSE

0:16:180:16:19

For the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:16:210:16:25

We're down to three pairs.

0:16:280:16:29

At the end of this round, we will have to say goodbye to another pair.

0:16:290:16:32

Our category for Round Two this evening is...

0:16:320:16:35

Food and Drink.

0:16:370:16:38

Decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second,

0:16:380:16:41

and whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.

0:16:410:16:44

OK, and the question concerns...

0:16:470:16:49

Mm. Cookbooks. Richard.

0:16:520:16:54

We're going to show you the names of six cookbooks.

0:16:540:16:56

We'll also give you the initials of the writer of that book,

0:16:560:16:59

the chef or food writer.

0:16:590:17:00

You need to give us the most obscure answer you can, please.

0:17:000:17:03

Six on the first board, six on the second,

0:17:030:17:04

12 in all to have a go at home. Very best of luck.

0:17:040:17:07

OK, we're looking for the authors of these cookbooks

0:17:070:17:09

and here is our first board of six.

0:17:090:17:11

We've got...

0:17:110:17:13

I'll read those all one last time.

0:17:290:17:31

There we go. So, Pixie, we come to you first.

0:17:480:17:52

Reggae Reggae Cook Book,

0:17:540:17:57

Levi Roots.

0:17:570:17:59

Levi Roots, says Pixie.

0:17:590:18:00

Let's see if that's right and how many people said Levi Roots.

0:18:000:18:03

14.

0:18:120:18:14

That's good.

0:18:140:18:15

Can't complain with 14, I'd say.

0:18:150:18:18

Yes, probably the most famous entrant into the Dragons' Den,

0:18:180:18:21

Levi Roots.

0:18:210:18:22

The company was worth about 38 million a couple of years

0:18:220:18:24

-after he'd been in there.

-Really?

-Mm.

-Mm, good sauce.

0:18:240:18:27

Now, Robin what would you like to go for?

0:18:270:18:30

I'm going to plump with Real Family Food

0:18:300:18:33

and Antony Worrall Thompson.

0:18:330:18:35

Antony Worrall Thompson, says Robin.

0:18:350:18:37

Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it.

0:18:370:18:40

It's right.

0:18:420:18:44

23.

0:18:480:18:50

APPLAUSE

0:18:500:18:52

-Not bad.

-Well played, Robin.

0:18:520:18:53

Yes, it featured food made out of members of his family,

0:18:530:18:57

-LAUGHTER

-which I just think is... I don't know.

0:18:570:19:00

I always think that when I see "family butchers" above shops.

0:19:000:19:03

LAUGHTER I think, "Oh!"

0:19:030:19:05

Ooh, a bit distasteful.

0:19:050:19:07

Thanks very much indeed.

0:19:070:19:09

Now, Lizzie, do you want to talk us through the board?

0:19:090:19:11

No, please don't do that to me. I can do one,

0:19:110:19:14

which is A Chef For All Seasons, Gordon Ramsay.

0:19:140:19:17

Gordon Ramsay, says Lizzie, GR, sounds reasonable enough to me.

0:19:170:19:20

Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said Gordon Ramsay.

0:19:200:19:23

It is right, phew.

0:19:250:19:26

Ooh.

0:19:280:19:29

Not bad, 26.

0:19:310:19:32

APPLAUSE

0:19:320:19:34

Not bad at all.

0:19:340:19:37

Good answering from everybody on that round.

0:19:370:19:39

His daughter Matilda now has her own TV show as well.

0:19:390:19:42

-Matilda Ramsay?

-Yeah.

-I didn't know that.

-So, the dynasty continues.

0:19:420:19:47

Now, you are very good at this sort of thing. So, JO?

0:19:470:19:50

-Jamie Oliver.

-Of course it is. That would've scored 60.

0:19:500:19:54

-Now, LF, she was on MasterChef.

-Oh, lovely Lisa Faulkner.

0:19:540:19:58

Lovely Lisa Faulkner, should have been LLF. One point for that.

0:19:580:20:00

And one of the most famous chefs in America - WP.

0:20:000:20:03

I don't know.

0:20:030:20:04

-Wolfgang Puck.

-Ah.

0:20:040:20:06

And it's a pointless answer as well so well done if you said that.

0:20:060:20:09

Very good. There we are. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:20:090:20:12

Let's take a look at the scores. 14. Look at that.

0:20:120:20:15

Doctors Pixie and Dawn once again top of the class, well done, 14.

0:20:150:20:19

Now it's 23 where we find Robin and Rosemary.

0:20:190:20:21

Up to 26, Lizzie and Chris. I mean, you're all fairly close together.

0:20:210:20:25

But, Chris, you are out in front

0:20:250:20:26

-so a nice low, score from you should keep you in the game.

-No chance.

0:20:260:20:30

Good luck with that. We're going to come back down the line now.

0:20:300:20:32

Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:20:320:20:35

OK, let's put six more cookbooks up on the board and here they come.

0:20:370:20:40

I'll read those one last time.

0:20:580:20:59

Chris.

0:21:130:21:15

I'm going to have to go for an obvious one.

0:21:150:21:17

How To Eat, Nigella Lawson.

0:21:170:21:20

Nigella Lawson, says Chris.

0:21:200:21:21

OK, no red line for you as you're the high-scorers.

0:21:210:21:24

Let's see how you do with Nigella Lawson.

0:21:240:21:27

Not bad at all. Look at that, 24.

0:21:340:21:36

APPLAUSE

0:21:360:21:37

Very much in the same ballpark as everyone else.

0:21:370:21:39

Takes your total up to 50. Well done, Chris.

0:21:390:21:41

Well-played, Chris, and, of course,

0:21:410:21:43

-How To Eat Nigella Lawson is a very different book.

-Yes.

0:21:430:21:46

Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:21:460:21:49

Er, Rosemary.

0:21:490:21:51

Now, we have a target for you which is 26 or less.

0:21:510:21:54

-26 or less keeps you very much in the game.

-Right.

0:21:540:21:57

The awful thing is I don't buy any cookbooks

0:21:570:22:00

cos I don't make any of the recipes.

0:22:000:22:03

I'm going to go for In The Kitchen,

0:22:030:22:05

erm, Angela Hartnell.

0:22:050:22:07

Angela Hartnell. There is your red line,

0:22:070:22:09

if you can get below that, you're into the next round.

0:22:090:22:12

Angela Hartnell, is it right,

0:22:120:22:13

how many people said it?

0:22:130:22:15

Ooh.

0:22:180:22:19

-Yah.

-Ooh, I'm so sorry.

-Yes, I think I might know what that is.

0:22:210:22:23

That, I'm afraid, has scored you 100 points.

0:22:230:22:26

Takes your total up to 123.

0:22:260:22:28

Yeah, you're thinking of Angela Hartnett but it's not her either.

0:22:280:22:32

-I am thinking of... Yeah.

-But the initials would certainly lead you

0:22:320:22:35

to believe it so it's certainly a very good guess.

0:22:350:22:38

I won't say any more about it. I won't say any more about it.

0:22:380:22:42

Now, Dawn. Dawn, well, listen, I've got good news for you.

0:22:420:22:44

-It doesn't matter what you score...

-Mm-hm.

0:22:440:22:46

..you'll still go through but we would like you to

0:22:460:22:49

talk us through the board.

0:22:490:22:50

The River Cottage is Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.

0:22:500:22:52

I think In The Kitchen is Ainsley Harriott

0:22:520:22:56

and then I'm struggling.

0:22:560:22:57

Which one would you want to go for?

0:22:570:22:59

I'm going to go for Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall

0:22:590:23:01

because I didn't know there was another AH and I'm a bit anxious.

0:23:010:23:04

-Tactical.

-You're going to go for Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.

0:23:040:23:07

How many people said that? No red line, you're already through.

0:23:070:23:10

INDISTINCT

0:23:140:23:16

27. APPLAUSE

0:23:170:23:19

41 is your total.

0:23:200:23:22

Yeah, very well-played. In The Kitchen,

0:23:220:23:25

it is Ainsley Harriott that would've scored you...

0:23:250:23:29

18 points. It's annoying, the initials,

0:23:290:23:30

once you've seen someone else's initials,

0:23:300:23:32

it's very hard to get it out of your head.

0:23:320:23:34

-Now, the top one, Xander, is...?

-Is Clarissa Dickson Wright.

0:23:340:23:37

Clarissa Dickson Wright, of course it is.

0:23:370:23:39

Would've scored you seven points. Now, A Splash And A Dash,

0:23:390:23:43

very famous chef who liked to drink.

0:23:430:23:46

-Oh, Keith Floyd.

-Keith Floyd, of course it is.

0:23:460:23:49

That's the splash there, 31 points for that.

0:23:490:23:51

Now, this last one is a pointless answer.

0:23:510:23:53

She writes lots of cookbooks for babies, for children.

0:23:530:23:56

-Annabel Karmel.

-Annabel Karmel.

0:23:560:23:58

Very well done if you said that pointless answer.

0:23:580:24:00

There we are. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:24:000:24:03

So, at the end of our second round the pair who are heading home

0:24:030:24:05

with their high score of 123...

0:24:050:24:07

-Oh, that was so nearly a very good answer.

-Sorry!

0:24:070:24:09

It was so nearly a bit like a very good answer

0:24:090:24:12

but actually would've been wrong

0:24:120:24:13

but, erm, I'm afraid it was wrong

0:24:130:24:15

but a great shame to be sending you home, Rosemary and Robin.

0:24:150:24:18

Come play again, please. Rosemary and Robin, everyone.

0:24:180:24:20

APPLAUSE

0:24:200:24:22

-I'm so sorry!

-But for Lizzie and Chris, Pixie and Dawn,

0:24:220:24:26

it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:24:260:24:28

Well done, Lizzie and Chris, Pixie and Dawn,

0:24:320:24:35

you're now one step closer to the final

0:24:350:24:37

and a chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands...

0:24:370:24:40

at £2,500. There we are.

0:24:400:24:42

This is how we decide who's going to play for that jackpot.

0:24:450:24:49

We get you to play as teams, which is nice.

0:24:490:24:50

It means you can chat before you give your answers

0:24:500:24:52

and the first pair to win two questions

0:24:520:24:55

will be playing for that jackpot.

0:24:550:24:56

Well, this is going to be very, very exciting indeed.

0:24:560:24:58

Let's play the head-to-head.

0:24:580:25:00

Here is your first question and it concerns...

0:25:060:25:08

Celebrities in Make-Up, Richard.

0:25:120:25:14

We're going to show you five pictures now of celebrities

0:25:140:25:16

either applying make-up or having make-up applied.

0:25:160:25:18

Can you identify the most obscure of these five?

0:25:180:25:21

OK, let's reveal our celebrities in make-up and here they are.

0:25:210:25:24

We have...

0:25:240:25:25

There we are. Five celebrities in make-up.

0:25:450:25:48

Now then, Lizzie and Chris, you've been our low scorers

0:25:480:25:51

throughout the show so you will go first.

0:25:510:25:53

-(Is he Benny Hill?)

-(I don't know. I don't know.)

0:25:530:25:58

(All right, because we don't know, let's not go for that.)

0:25:580:26:01

(Yeah. What one do you want?)

0:26:010:26:03

-(We'll go for Nureyev?)

-(Yeah.)

0:26:030:26:06

-Go on.

-We'll go for D, Rudolf Nureyev.

0:26:060:26:09

Rudolf Nureyev, say Lizzie and Chris for D.

0:26:090:26:13

Now then, Pixie and Dawn, do you fancy talking us

0:26:130:26:16

-through all the other celebrities?

-Not in the slightest!

0:26:160:26:19

And telling us who they are.

0:26:190:26:20

I thought A was the girl who sings the Frozen Song,

0:26:200:26:23

Demi Lofario or Lorato or something like that.

0:26:230:26:27

OK. B we think is Felicity Kendal.

0:26:270:26:31

C is Nelson Mandela.

0:26:310:26:33

-And we're completely...

-Frozen.

-Go on.

0:26:330:26:37

-I kind of thought it looks like a fat Professor Green.

-Ooh.

0:26:370:26:42

-I think we'll go for Felicity Kendal, B.

-OK, B, Felicity Kendal.

0:26:420:26:46

So we have Rudolf Nureyev and we have Felicity Kendal.

0:26:460:26:49

Lizzie and Chris said Rudolf Nureyev was D, let's see if it's right,

0:26:490:26:53

let's see how many people said it.

0:26:530:26:55

It is right.

0:26:580:26:59

It is right.

0:27:020:27:04

Look at that. 12 for Rudolf Nureyev.

0:27:040:27:05

APPLAUSE

0:27:050:27:06

Good answer, Lizzie and Chris.

0:27:080:27:11

Now, Pixie and Dawn have said that B is Felicity Kendal.

0:27:110:27:15

Let's see if that's right,

0:27:150:27:16

let's see how many people said Felicity Kendal.

0:27:160:27:19

Very close indeed. Look at that.

0:27:250:27:28

17 for Felicity Kendal. APPLAUSE

0:27:280:27:31

But, Lizzie and Chris, you win that one.

0:27:310:27:33

After one question you're up 1-0.

0:27:330:27:35

Nureyev was the best answer on the board as well

0:27:350:27:37

so very well-played, could not be beaten.

0:27:370:27:39

A is Ariana Grande, the singer.

0:27:390:27:43

Had two UK number ones, 20 points for her.

0:27:430:27:46

-C, isn't that an amazing photograph?

-Mm.

-Fabulous, isn't it?

0:27:460:27:49

Nelson Mandela, of course.

0:27:490:27:50

Would've scored you 73.

0:27:500:27:52

And E...

0:27:540:27:55

Do you know E?

0:27:560:27:58

Well, somebody was saying they thought it was Benny Hill.

0:27:580:28:00

-We thought it was Benny Hill.

-It could be Benny Hill.

0:28:000:28:03

It is Benny Hill.

0:28:030:28:05

-Oh, it is!

-36 points for that.

0:28:050:28:07

There we are, how funny.

0:28:070:28:09

Thank you, Richard. OK, here comes your second question.

0:28:090:28:12

Pixie and Dawn, you get to answer it first

0:28:120:28:13

but you have to win it to stay in the game. Best of luck.

0:28:130:28:16

It concerns...

0:28:160:28:17

Disco Classics, Richard.

0:28:210:28:22

We're now going to play you five extracts from classic songs

0:28:220:28:25

of the disco era. Can you tell us the acts

0:28:250:28:27

who performed these songs please?

0:28:270:28:29

OK, well, let's reveal our five tracks and here they are.

0:28:290:28:33

We've got A...

0:30:030:30:05

There we go. Now, Pixie and Dawn will go first.

0:30:050:30:08

We're going to go A, Gloria Gaynor.

0:30:080:30:11

A, Gloria Gaynor, say Pixie and Dawn.

0:30:110:30:13

Now then, Lizzie and Chris, you can talk us through them if you like.

0:30:130:30:17

-CHRIS LAUGHS

-Not much to be said, to be honest.

0:30:170:30:20

-We recognise them but knowing the titles is another thing.

-Yes.

0:30:200:30:24

-We can sing them for you.

-Yes!

-We can dance...

0:30:240:30:27

Do you know what? Do that.

0:30:270:30:29

It won't score you anything.

0:30:300:30:31

Saturday night Fever. Yeah?

0:30:330:30:36

-Bee Gees.

-Bee Gees, the Bee Gees.

0:30:360:30:38

So we have Gloria Gaynor and we have the Bee Gees.

0:30:380:30:40

Now, Pixie and Dawn went for Gloria Gaynor for A.

0:30:400:30:42

Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.

0:30:420:30:45

It's right.

0:30:470:30:48

51.

0:30:520:30:53

APPLAUSE

0:30:530:30:54

Now, Lizzie and Chris have gone for the Bee Gees.

0:30:570:30:59

Let's see if that's right for E, and if it is how many people said that.

0:30:590:31:02

It's right.

0:31:040:31:06

70. Well done, Pixie and Dawn.

0:31:070:31:11

You somehow managed to do exactly what was needed.

0:31:110:31:13

You're back in the game after two questions, it's 1-1.

0:31:130:31:16

I was terrible on that. I'm awful with intros to songs.

0:31:160:31:18

I can't do it at all. Again, you recognise every song.

0:31:180:31:20

They're all famous songs. Let's have a little listen to the three

0:31:200:31:24

that we didn't have, so B.

0:31:240:31:25

MUSIC PLAYS

0:31:250:31:27

That's The Hustle by Van McCoy.

0:31:270:31:30

And Van McCoy would've scored you nine points.

0:31:300:31:32

Very well done if you said that.

0:31:320:31:34

-The grass?

-That's all right.

0:31:340:31:37

He's just been baling hay.

0:31:370:31:38

-In Lycra?!

-Yes!

0:31:380:31:41

Farmers wear Lycra too.

0:31:410:31:43

OK.

0:31:430:31:45

He's got the straw and Lycra look there. C.

I do know this one, Donna Summer.

0:31:500:31:52

Hot Stuff by Donna Summer.

0:31:520:31:53

Would have scored you 30.

0:31:530:31:55

And the fourth one...

0:31:550:31:58

MUSIC PLAYS

0:31:580:32:00

It's a song everyone knows.

0:32:000:32:02

-It's Car Wash.

-Oh, Rose Royce. Of course it's Car Wash.

0:32:020:32:05

And that would have scored you 16.

0:32:050:32:07

Thank you very much. OK, here comes your third question.

0:32:070:32:10

Whoever wins this goes through to the final

0:32:100:32:12

and plays for that jackpot for their charity, best of luck.

0:32:120:32:15

It concerns...

0:32:150:32:17

GROANS AND LAUGHTER

0:32:180:32:19

Items found in a first aid kit. Richard.

0:32:210:32:24

If only we had three doctors here

0:32:240:32:25

trying to qualify for our jackpot round.

0:32:250:32:29

We're going to show you five items now that are commonly found

0:32:290:32:32

in first aid kits, but we've removed alternate letters from their names.

0:32:320:32:35

Can you tell us what they are, please?

0:32:350:32:37

OK, let's reveal our five items and here they are.

0:32:370:32:40

We've got...

0:32:400:32:41

I'll read them again.

0:32:540:32:55

There we are. Lizzie and Chris will go first.

0:33:060:33:08

Do you think, the first one, do you think we should say...?

0:33:080:33:12

Do you think people would know the digital...?

0:33:120:33:14

What's the one that people aren't going to know?

0:33:140:33:18

We're going to go for the second one down.

0:33:180:33:21

Cleansing wipes.

0:33:210:33:23

Cleansing wipes, say Lizzie and Chris.

0:33:230:33:26

Cleansing wipes. Now then,

0:33:260:33:28

Pixie and Dawn, talk us through all of the others.

0:33:280:33:31

Do you think we're doctors or something?

0:33:310:33:34

Digital thermometer, antiseptic cream,

0:33:340:33:37

aspirin and gauze.

0:33:370:33:38

What would you like to go for?

0:33:380:33:40

-Gauze.

-Gauze.

0:33:400:33:41

OK, so we have cleansing wipes, we have gauze.

0:33:410:33:44

Lizzie and Chris went for cleansing wipes.

0:33:440:33:46

Let's see if that's right,

0:33:460:33:48

let's see how many people said cleansing wipes.

0:33:480:33:50

It's right.

0:33:500:33:52

That's a good answer.

0:33:550:33:56

Down it goes.

0:33:560:33:58

Cleansing wipes down to 8!

0:33:580:33:59

Wow, practically through the floor!

0:33:590:34:02

APPLAUSE

0:34:020:34:03

Pixie and Dawn have gone for gauze, the only one I couldn't get.

0:34:040:34:08

Gauze, let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it.

0:34:080:34:12

Ooh, look at that, 37 for gauze!

0:34:180:34:21

APPLAUSE

0:34:210:34:23

There we have our result.

0:34:230:34:25

Very well done indeed, Lizzie and Chris.

0:34:250:34:27

After three questions you are through to the final 2-1.

0:34:270:34:30

I'm glad to say they were the best two answers on the board as well,

0:34:300:34:33

so you held up your profession valiantly.

0:34:330:34:35

Let's take a look at the scores for the others.

0:34:350:34:38

Digital thermometer would have scored you 50.

0:34:380:34:41

Antiseptic cream would have scored you 49,

0:34:410:34:44

and aspirin is the biggest scorer, would have scored you 84.

0:34:440:34:48

Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:34:480:34:50

The pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:34:500:34:53

I'm afraid, Pixie and Dawn, it's you.

0:34:530:34:55

Nothing wrong with any of your answers.

0:34:550:34:57

Superb play right across the game.

0:34:570:34:59

Brilliant. It's been lovely having you on the show.

0:34:590:35:02

Please come back and play again and take the trophy next time.

0:35:020:35:05

In the meantime, thanks very much indeed, Pixie and Dawn!

0:35:050:35:08

APPLAUSE

0:35:080:35:09

But for Lizzie and Chris it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:120:35:15

Congratulations, Lizzie and Chris.

0:35:190:35:21

You have wrestled your opponents to the floor

0:35:210:35:23

and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy so very well done.

0:35:230:35:27

You now have a chance

0:35:330:35:34

to win our Pointless jackpot for your charities.

0:35:340:35:36

At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £2,500.

0:35:360:35:41

APPLAUSE

0:35:410:35:42

We've put you through the paces obviously, and here you are.

0:35:430:35:47

Anything you'd particularly like to see come up in the final round?

0:35:470:35:51

Theatre, ballet for me.

0:35:510:35:54

-Maybe politics.

-OK, theatre, ballet, politics.

0:35:540:35:57

What about you, Chris?

0:35:570:35:59

Obscure gardening questions.

0:35:590:36:01

That's great. You cover so many bases.

0:36:020:36:06

OK, let's see what today's selection looks like.

0:36:060:36:09

I hope there's something up there you like the look of. We've got...

0:36:090:36:12

For me it would be the year 1970.

0:36:190:36:22

OK, go on. We'll go with that.

0:36:220:36:23

No, I'll take the blame if we don't do well!

0:36:230:36:25

That's right, you take the blame!

0:36:250:36:28

OK. The year 1970.

0:36:280:36:31

-The year 1970 it is. Richard.

-Very best of luck.

0:36:310:36:33

Three very different categories within here.

0:36:330:36:35

I hope one of them suits you. Maybe all three of them suit you.

0:36:350:36:38

Let's find out. We are looking for

0:36:380:36:41

any national team who played at the 1970 Fifa World Cup in Mexico,

0:36:410:36:45

apart from Mexico.

0:36:450:36:46

We're looking for any act who had a UK number one single in 1970,

0:36:460:36:50

so anyone who topped the UK singles chart in 1970,

0:36:500:36:53

any act - any band or singer.

0:36:530:36:56

Or we're looking for anyone, according to IMDB, who was credited

0:36:560:37:00

as acting in The Railway Children.

0:37:000:37:02

So any teams who played in the 1970 Fifa World Cup finals in Mexico,

0:37:020:37:06

acts with a UK number one single or cast of the Railway children.

0:37:060:37:09

-Very best of luck.

-OK, thank you very much indeed.

0:37:090:37:12

As always,

0:37:120:37:13

you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:37:130:37:16

All you need to win that jackpot for your charities

0:37:160:37:18

is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:37:180:37:20

-Are you ready?

-Yep.

0:37:200:37:23

OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. Your time starts now.

0:37:230:37:27

-I'm not very confident.

-I could do two names from the cast

0:37:270:37:30

-of The Railway Children.

-Great.

0:37:300:37:32

Sally Thomsett, Jenny Agutter.

0:37:320:37:35

-Can you think of a third?

-No, I can't, no.

0:37:350:37:38

What about the others?

0:37:380:37:40

Acts who had a UK number one single in 1970.

0:37:400:37:44

-The Beatles?

-That's definitely one.

0:37:440:37:46

The Rolling Stones.

0:37:460:37:48

Stones, Beatles.

0:37:480:37:51

Is Pink Floyd later?

0:37:520:37:54

Maybe not. We're talking...

0:37:560:37:59

40 years ago.

0:37:590:38:02

We haven't got too long, have we?

0:38:020:38:05

Beatles, Stones... ABBA, were they around, or they came later?

0:38:050:38:10

I think they came later.

0:38:120:38:14

-Number ones.

-Ten seconds left.

0:38:150:38:19

Of the two, I can't think of a third person from The Railway Children.

0:38:190:38:23

Go for that and you get two there and we'll go for acts.

0:38:230:38:27

That is your time up.

0:38:270:38:29

I'm sorry to say, your minute is up. Let's have your three answers.

0:38:290:38:34

I'll give two names from the cast of the 1970 film The Railway Children.

0:38:340:38:38

Lovely, and they are?

0:38:380:38:40

-Sally Thomsett and Jenny Agutter.

-Great.

0:38:400:38:44

And your third answer.

0:38:440:38:46

The act with the number one single, Stones.

0:38:460:38:51

Rolling Stones. OK, of those three,

0:38:510:38:53

which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:530:38:55

-Sally Thomsett.

-Sally Thomsett, we'll put her last.

0:38:550:38:59

-Least likely to be pointless.

-Jenny Agutter?

0:38:590:39:02

Jenny Agutter. We'll put Jenny Agutter first.

0:39:020:39:05

OK, let's pop those answers up on the board in that order then

0:39:050:39:09

and here they are. We've got...

0:39:090:39:11

Very best of luck, three good answers on the board.

0:39:150:39:17

I reckon all three of those should be right.

0:39:170:39:19

Maybe one of them might be pointless.

0:39:190:39:21

If one of them were to be pointless,

0:39:210:39:22

what would you be doing with your jackpot? What's your charities?

0:39:220:39:25

For me, the Berkshire Community Foundation

0:39:250:39:28

cos they do fantastic support for very small charities

0:39:280:39:32

who do amazing work in the community,

0:39:320:39:34

and without them, they wouldn't be able to do it,

0:39:340:39:36

so Berkshire Community Foundation.

0:39:360:39:38

Very good. Chris, how about you?

0:39:380:39:40

A very small charity called Chromosome 18.

0:39:400:39:44

I have a nephew with this rare condition which can cause

0:39:440:39:48

physical and mental disabilities.

0:39:480:39:51

A tiny charity, obviously need the money,

0:39:510:39:53

so hopefully go for that and collect.

0:39:530:39:57

Very well done. APPLAUSE

0:39:570:40:00

Fingers crossed one of these answers will win

0:40:030:40:05

that jackpot for your charities. Your first answer was Jenny Agutter.

0:40:050:40:09

In this case we were looking for

0:40:090:40:11

cast members of The Railway Children.

0:40:110:40:12

It has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot for your charity,

0:40:120:40:15

so let's see, for £2,500, how many people said Jenny Agutter?

0:40:150:40:19

It's right.

0:40:220:40:23

All it has to do now is go down to zero

0:40:230:40:26

and you will leave with that cheque for your charities for £2,500.

0:40:260:40:29

43.

0:40:290:40:31

APPLAUSE

0:40:310:40:32

43. Call The Midwife, I blame for that.

0:40:350:40:37

It's a good answer but I'm afraid not a pointless answer,

0:40:370:40:40

which means you only have two more shots at today's jackpot.

0:40:400:40:43

Your next answer was The Rolling Stones.

0:40:430:40:45

We were looking for acts that had

0:40:450:40:47

number one singles in the UK in 1970.

0:40:470:40:49

It has to be pointless again for you to win.

0:40:490:40:52

For £2,500, let's see how many people said The Rolling Stones.

0:40:520:40:55

Oh, dear!

0:40:580:40:59

You said 100 and I'm afraid it is 100.

0:40:590:41:02

Look at that. I'm afraid an incorrect answer, 1970.

0:41:020:41:06

We will discover why that's incorrect and how far out you were,

0:41:060:41:10

but I'm afraid not a pointless answer which means you only have

0:41:100:41:12

one more shot at today's jackpot.

0:41:120:41:14

A really good answer in third place though.

0:41:140:41:16

Sally Thomsett. In this case, again we were looking

0:41:160:41:19

for Railway Children cast members.

0:41:190:41:21

For £2,500, let's see how many people said Sally Thomsett.

0:41:210:41:24

Is it pointless?

0:41:240:41:25

It's right.

0:41:280:41:29

Your first answer Jenny Agutter took us down to 43.

0:41:290:41:32

The Rolling Stones turned out to be incorrect.

0:41:320:41:36

Sally Thomsett now going down into single figures.

0:41:360:41:38

Oh, nine!

0:41:380:41:40

APPLAUSE

0:41:400:41:41

Not bad though. Really not bad.

0:41:440:41:46

It can be very hard sometimes

0:41:460:41:48

even to get single figures in this last round.

0:41:480:41:50

You found it with Sally Thomsett.

0:41:500:41:51

I'm sorry you didn't find a pointless answer though,

0:41:510:41:54

which means I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £2,500.

0:41:540:41:57

However, as it's a celebrity special, we're going to donate £500

0:41:570:42:00

to each pair to give to their charities.

0:42:000:42:03

It's been wonderful having you on the show

0:42:030:42:05

and you get a Pointless trophy to take home, so there we are.

0:42:050:42:08

APPLAUSE

0:42:080:42:10

Three good answers. The Stones' last number one was in 1969.

0:42:140:42:17

I suspect they might not have been pointless anyway

0:42:170:42:19

but it wasn't far out as a guess.

0:42:190:42:21

Let's start with teams at the '70 World Cup.

0:42:210:42:24

Six pointless answers here.

0:42:240:42:26

Israel, Morocco, Peru, Romania.

0:42:260:42:28

You also could have had Bulgaria and Czechoslovakia.

0:42:280:42:31

Well done if you said any of those.

0:42:310:42:32

The acts who had a UK number one single.

0:42:320:42:34

You've got Simon and Garfunkel with Bridge Over Troubled Water.

0:42:340:42:37

Voodoo Chile, Jimi Hendrix.

0:42:370:42:39

Dana, All Kinds Of Everything was number one in 1970.

0:42:390:42:41

Lee Marvin, Wandering Star.

0:42:410:42:44

Now, the cast of The Railway Children.

0:42:440:42:48

Gary Warren, Iain Cuthbertson was a pointless answer.

0:42:480:42:50

Sally James, later of Tiswas, was a pointless answer.

0:42:500:42:53

And William Mervin. In fact everyone in the film apart from

0:42:530:42:55

Jenny Agutter, Bernard Cribbins, Sally Thomsett, and Dinah Sheridan,

0:42:550:42:58

everybody else was a pointless answer.

0:42:580:43:00

Well done if you said any of those.

0:43:000:43:02

Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:43:020:43:03

Unfortunately we have to say goodbye but it's been fabulous

0:43:030:43:06

having you on the show. Thank you so much for playing.

0:43:060:43:08

Wonderful, wonderful contestants, Lizzie and Chris.

0:43:080:43:11

APPLAUSE

0:43:110:43:12

Join us next time when we'll be

0:43:140:43:16

putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.

0:43:160:43:18

-Meanwhile it's goodbye from Richard.

-Goodbye.

0:43:180:43:21

And it's goodbye from me - goodbye.

0:43:210:43:23
