0:00:19 > 0:00:22CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed.

0:00:23 > 0:00:26Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:26 > 0:00:29the quiz show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners.

0:00:29 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.

0:00:30 > 0:00:34APPLAUSE

0:00:34 > 0:00:35And couple number one.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38Hello, I'm Ray and this is my wife, Daphne.

0:00:38 > 0:00:42We're both retired and we live in Whitstable in Kent.

0:00:42 > 0:00:43Couple number two.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45My name's Ali. This is my friend Alex.

0:00:45 > 0:00:47We're housemates at university in Bristol.

0:00:47 > 0:00:48Couple number three.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50Hi, my name's Dan. This is my father, Richard,

0:00:50 > 0:00:52and we're from Market Harborough.

0:00:52 > 0:00:53And finally, couple number four.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Hi, Alexander. My name's Sarah and I'm from Yeovil in Somerset

0:00:56 > 0:00:59and this is my good friend Shirley from Henley-on-Thames.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01And these are today's contestants.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04APPLAUSE

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Thanks, all of you. We'll find out more about you

0:01:06 > 0:01:07throughout the show, as it goes along.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12His fitness DVD, Richard Osmond's Mind And Body Work Out,

0:01:12 > 0:01:14is currently selling incredibly well

0:01:14 > 0:01:17for something I've just made up and definitely doesn't exist.

0:01:17 > 0:01:19It's my Pointless friend, here's Richard.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22Hiya. Hi, everybody. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:01:25 > 0:01:27- Afternoon. - And to you.- That's not a bad idea.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29No, I was just thinking, that's a great idea.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31- Yeah, I might do that.- Yeah.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33I'll play some role in there, maybe. I don't know.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Maybe you could lift me.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38I reckon I could bench you.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43LAUGHTER No... Come on!

0:01:43 > 0:01:45What do you weigh? Like, kind of, 85 kilos?

0:01:45 > 0:01:47- Less. 80.- I could deadlift you.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50- Could you?- Yeah, yeah.- OK.

0:01:50 > 0:01:51- Shall I...?- Anyway... Not now!

0:01:51 > 0:01:55Now I'm going to be thinking about deadlifting you the whole show.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58LAUGHTER

0:01:58 > 0:01:59Not for the first time.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02LAUGHTER

0:02:02 > 0:02:05- How are you? You well? - I'm really very well.- Excellent.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07We've got two pairs coming back from last time.

0:02:07 > 0:02:08Daphne and Ray, who did rather well.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10They're on podium one, poised to strike.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12We have Richard and Dan, who did less well

0:02:12 > 0:02:14but I think they're quite good, Richard and Dan.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16They were unfortunate to be knocked out

0:02:16 > 0:02:18so I think they may surprise us.

0:02:18 > 0:02:19OK, thanks very much indeed.

0:02:19 > 0:02:20All our questions on Pointless

0:02:20 > 0:02:22have been put to 100 people before the show.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25Our contestants need to find the obscure answers

0:02:25 > 0:02:26those people didn't get.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Everyone's trying to find a pointless answer -

0:02:28 > 0:02:30an answer that none of our 100 people gave.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Now, Mary and Jenny didn't win the jackpot last time

0:02:35 > 0:02:37so we add another £1,000 to that.

0:02:37 > 0:02:38So today's jackpot starts off at...

0:02:40 > 0:02:42CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:02:43 > 0:02:46Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Now, in this first round, I'll take an answer from each of you

0:02:53 > 0:02:55but there is of course to be no conferring.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58Whichever pair has the highest score at the end of the round

0:02:58 > 0:02:59will be eliminated.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01So do what you can to make sure that's not you.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03OK, our first category today is...

0:03:05 > 0:03:06It's the movies.

0:03:06 > 0:03:07Can you all decide in your pairs

0:03:07 > 0:03:10who's going to go first, who's going to go second?

0:03:10 > 0:03:12And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17OK. And the question concerns...

0:03:19 > 0:03:21'90s film characters. Richard?

0:03:21 > 0:03:22On each pass, we're going to give you

0:03:22 > 0:03:25the name of seven film characters from films from the 1990s.

0:03:25 > 0:03:26We just need you to tell us

0:03:26 > 0:03:28the name of the actor who played that character.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30There are going to be 14 in all.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32- So have a go at home, see how many you can get.- OK.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34So we need the name of the actor or actress

0:03:34 > 0:03:37who played these film characters in the 1990s.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39And here is our first board.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57I'll read those one last time.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13Now, Daphne and Ray, you all drew lots before the show

0:04:13 > 0:04:15and today, you're going to go first.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18- Ray, welcome back to Pointless. - Thank you.

0:04:18 > 0:04:19Remind us what you do, Ray.

0:04:19 > 0:04:23I'm retired. I used to work in retail.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25And before that, reproduction furniture.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27- Now, Ray...- Yes.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29..what about all these characters from '90s films?

0:04:29 > 0:04:31Did your heart sink when that board came up

0:04:31 > 0:04:34- or are you feeling all right? - It did. I'm not a film buff.

0:04:34 > 0:04:38In fact, I think there's only one there that I might know.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41Which would be J in Men In Black -

0:04:41 > 0:04:44- Will Smith.- Will Smith, says Ray, for J in Men In Black.

0:04:44 > 0:04:45Let's see if that's right.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49And if it is, let's see how many people said Will Smith.

0:04:49 > 0:04:50It's right.

0:04:53 > 0:04:54Still going down...

0:04:54 > 0:04:5534.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57- APPLAUSE - Not a bad score, Ray.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Well played, Ray. Good start from podium one.

0:05:02 > 0:05:03They're all good, the Men In Black films.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Thanks very much indeed.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07- Now, Ali...- Hi. - Welcome to Pointless.- Thank you.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10- You're a student?- Yes. - Whereabouts?- Bristol.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13- And what are you studying? - Studying French.- Good.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16And when you're not studying French, what do you get up to?

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Erm...a big sports fan.

0:05:18 > 0:05:19Keen on playing sports as well,

0:05:19 > 0:05:21although I've just had knee surgery

0:05:21 > 0:05:24- so not for a good six or seven months.- Wow!

0:05:24 > 0:05:25What was it, arthroscopy?

0:05:25 > 0:05:29- It was an anterior cruciate ligament replacement.- Wow!

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- Or reconstruction, in fact. - Yo! How did you do that?

0:05:32 > 0:05:35- I did it playing five-a-side football.- I did exactly that.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37Had exactly the same op for exactly the same reason.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39- It's horrible.- Ow!

0:05:39 > 0:05:41Just to let you know, I never really recovered.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43LAUGHTER

0:05:43 > 0:05:45Even now.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Anyway, let's think of better things, Ali.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49- Let's think of nice films from the- '90s. Yeah.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53So there are two that I'm pretty confident of getting right.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55It's just deciding which one will be the lowest.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57I'm going to go with Lester Burnham

0:05:57 > 0:05:59and I think that was Kevin Spacey.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01Kevin Spacey, says Ali.

0:06:01 > 0:06:05Lots of nodding from all the other contestants.

0:06:05 > 0:06:06"Yes, we knew that! Yes, yes."

0:06:06 > 0:06:07Let's see if that's right,

0:06:07 > 0:06:10and if it is, let's see how many people said Kevin Spacey.

0:06:12 > 0:06:13It's right.

0:06:18 > 0:06:19It's a good score.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Look at that! 14, Ali, very well done.

0:06:21 > 0:06:2214 for Kevin Spacey.

0:06:24 > 0:06:25Well played, Ali.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Yeah, it was Sam Mendes who directed it.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30It was always his first choice but the role was offered to Chevy Chase.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34And second offered to Tom Hanks before Kevin Spacey was offered it.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37- Dan, welcome back.- Hello. - Remind us what you do, Dan.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39I'm a sports coach.

0:06:39 > 0:06:40I run my own company,

0:06:40 > 0:06:42teaching children in primary schools.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45- So, very rewarding. - Very rewarding indeed.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47And in the holidays, you set up sports clubs?

0:06:47 > 0:06:50- I set up sports clubs, yeah, and things like that.- Yeah.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52So keep them active, try to keep them fit.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Yeah, good. Good stuff - very important.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57Now, Dan, what do you make of all these '90s films?

0:06:57 > 0:06:59I'm going to go for probably my favourite ever trilogy,

0:06:59 > 0:07:02and that's Back To The Future III. Dr Emmett Brown,

0:07:02 > 0:07:03which is Christopher Lloyd.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05Christopher Lloyd, says Dan, for Dr Emmett Brown.

0:07:05 > 0:07:06Let's see that's right

0:07:06 > 0:07:08and how many people said Christopher Lloyd.

0:07:10 > 0:07:11It's right.

0:07:17 > 0:07:20- 7! - APPLAUSE

0:07:20 > 0:07:22Very well done indeed.

0:07:22 > 0:07:247 for Christopher Lloyd.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Well played, Dan. That's more like it, isn't it?

0:07:26 > 0:07:29Yeah, in that film, he has a kiss with Mary Steenburgen.

0:07:29 > 0:07:32It's the only kiss Christopher Lloyd has ever had in his film career.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34Nice. Now... Richard, thank you.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Sarah, welcome to Pointless. - Thank you.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39What do you do?

0:07:39 > 0:07:41Well, I'm a part-time registrar

0:07:41 > 0:07:45so I hatch, match and dispatch people for a living.

0:07:45 > 0:07:46See, that's fun!

0:07:46 > 0:07:51- It's very good fun.- So, on any given Saturday...- Yes.

0:07:51 > 0:07:52- ..how many...- And Sunday.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55- And Sundays?- Yeah. - How many do you do in a day?

0:07:55 > 0:07:58- Oh, it can be up to six.- Wow!- Yeah.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01- 12 happy people you see off? - Yes...hopefully!

0:08:01 > 0:08:03Cor! Anyway, there's that board, that's yours.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06- Do you want to take us through it before...- Oh, my goodness.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09- ..giving an answer?- Well, I'm afraid Phantom Menace is beyond me.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11I'd like to think I know who Douglas Quaid is

0:08:11 > 0:08:13but I think that might be quite a popular answer.

0:08:13 > 0:08:14You can say who you think it is

0:08:14 > 0:08:16but don't have to give it as your answer.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18I would hope it was Arnold Schwarzenegger

0:08:18 > 0:08:19but it might be the other one.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21I don't know. So I'm not going to go for that one.

0:08:21 > 0:08:25So I'm going to go for Harry Stamper and hope that it is Bruce Willis.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27- Harry Stamper, Bruce Willis, you say.- Yes.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29- Let's see if that's right. - Oh, I do hope so.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32And if it is, how many people said Bruce Willis for Harry Stamper.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36- It's right. Phew!- Ooh!

0:08:38 > 0:08:3941!

0:08:39 > 0:08:43- APPLAUSE - Big score there, for Harry Stamper.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Well played, Sarah. You were right about Arnie as well.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50- That would have scored you slightly fewer points, too.- Oh!

0:08:50 > 0:08:52Cos it would have scored you 36.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55So not a huge difference but might have been a slightly better answer.

0:08:55 > 0:08:59Now, Marla Singer is played by Helena Bonham Carter.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01It would have scored you 8 points.

0:09:01 > 0:09:04And Qui-Gon Jinn is the best answer on the board, actually.

0:09:04 > 0:09:05It's Liam Neeson,

0:09:05 > 0:09:07- would have scored you 3 points. - Thank you very much.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10Well, halfway through the round, let's take a look at those scores.

0:09:10 > 0:09:137 the best score of that pass. Very well done, Dan.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15That set you and your father up pretty well.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17Then up to 14 where we find Ali and Alex.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20Up to 34, Ray and Daphne, and then 41, Sarah and Shirley.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22You're not miles ahead of the game

0:09:22 > 0:09:25but, Shirley, what we will need is a nice low score from you,

0:09:25 > 0:09:27so let's hope it's lots of films you know.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29Good luck. We're going to come back down the line now.

0:09:29 > 0:09:30Second players, step up to the podium.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36OK, let's put seven more characters up on the board.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38And here they are.

0:09:51 > 0:09:53I'll read those one final time.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10- There we are. Now, Shirley...- Yes.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12..we're looking for the names of the actors or actresses

0:10:12 > 0:10:15who played these roles in the '90s. What do you do, Shirley?

0:10:15 > 0:10:18Commercial property. And I do go to the cinema occasionally

0:10:18 > 0:10:20but I've never seen any of those, I'm afraid.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22- Really?- And I don't seem to see the same films...

0:10:22 > 0:10:24- Did you not see any of those? - ..that Richard sees.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26I have such good news for you, Shirley.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29- There are some cracking films in there!- That's useful.

0:10:29 > 0:10:33There are a couple you could probably sidestep, usefully.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36But I would say, there are three or four fabulous films there.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38What a treat!

0:10:38 > 0:10:41I think I'm going...

0:10:41 > 0:10:43Well, I think I know the top one

0:10:43 > 0:10:46but I suspect it will be quite high-scoring.

0:10:46 > 0:10:50And as we are the high scorers, I'm going to take a punt, Sarah,

0:10:50 > 0:10:54- if you don't mind...- OK. - ..at Kim Boggs

0:10:54 > 0:10:57and guess that might be Johnny Depp.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59Kim Boggs, Johnny Depp, you're going to say.

0:10:59 > 0:11:02Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many said it.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04You're the high scorers so there's no red line for you.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Let's see how many people said Johnny Depp for Kim Boggs.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10- Oh, bad luck, Shirley!- Sorry.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer

0:11:13 > 0:11:15and it takes your total up to 141. Sorry.

0:11:15 > 0:11:16Sorry. Johnny Depp IS in that film

0:11:16 > 0:11:20- but plays Edward Scissorhands, I'm afraid.- OK.

0:11:20 > 0:11:24Thanks very much. Now then, Richard, you're a retired head teacher?

0:11:24 > 0:11:27- Yes.- Whose idea was it to come on Pointless?

0:11:27 > 0:11:29- Mine.- It was yours. And Dan, the obvious choice?

0:11:29 > 0:11:33- He was available. - LAUGHTER

0:11:33 > 0:11:34Well, I tell you what, look what he's done!

0:11:34 > 0:11:37I have three more intelligent children than Dan but...

0:11:37 > 0:11:39LAUGHTER AND GROANING

0:11:39 > 0:11:41- I tell you what, he set you up very well indeed.- Surely has.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43You're actually already through.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46Even if you score 100, you're still through to the next round.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48But it's nice to know, you've got a bit of a safety net.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50So why not take a bit of a punt there?

0:11:50 > 0:11:51Erm...

0:11:51 > 0:11:53I don't know any of them.

0:11:53 > 0:11:57Let's say Jack Nicholson,

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Walter Sobchak.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01Jack Nicholson, not a...

0:12:01 > 0:12:04That wouldn't be terrible casting, actually. I'd enjoy watching that -

0:12:04 > 0:12:05Jack Nicholson as Walter Sobchak.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said it.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10No red line, as you're already through.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15No, bad luck. An incorrect answer scores you 100 points,

0:12:15 > 0:12:17takes your total up to 107, but you're already through.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Yeah, sorry, Richard. Worth a punt though.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22So Dan is your fourth cleverest child?

0:12:22 > 0:12:25What is it like to be the fifth cleverest person in the family?!

0:12:25 > 0:12:27LAUGHTER

0:12:27 > 0:12:28I...

0:12:28 > 0:12:30APPLAUSE

0:12:32 > 0:12:33I think it's eighth

0:12:33 > 0:12:37cos you've discounted my wife and my two grandchildren.

0:12:38 > 0:12:42- Thanks very much indeed. Now, Alex...- Yes.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Alex, welcome to the show.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46- You're also at Bristol?- I am, yes. - And what are you studying there?

0:12:46 > 0:12:49- I do Spanish and Portuguese so... - So Ali is just doing French?

0:12:49 > 0:12:51- Just French?- Just French. - No Spanish? No...?

0:12:51 > 0:12:54- You haven't garnished it with any... - So mine is twice as hard.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57- Yeah, twice as many languages. - Yeah, definitely.

0:12:57 > 0:12:58Now, 14's what Ali scored.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00Do you think you can do less than that?

0:13:00 > 0:13:04I'm not... The thing is, I know two definitely

0:13:04 > 0:13:06and two possibly.

0:13:06 > 0:13:10But I'm going to say Neo

0:13:10 > 0:13:11and that's Keanu Reeves.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Keanu Reeves, you're going to say, for Neo.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15No red line, you're already through.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17But let's see how many people said Keanu Reeves.

0:13:19 > 0:13:20It's right.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26- 31. - APPLAUSE

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Not bad. Takes your total up to 45.

0:13:30 > 0:13:31Well played, Alex. Very tidy.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33Very tidily through on podium two, there.

0:13:33 > 0:13:37There we are. Now, Daphne, welcome back to Pointless.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39I don't remember you having a wrist problem last time.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41- Yes, I broke it.- Oh, you poor thing.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43- Yeah, I've got a plate in there now.- Wow.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46But it's your left hand so it doesn't interfere with your bowls?

0:13:46 > 0:13:49Well, I haven't been able to play because it's been too painful

0:13:49 > 0:13:50but I'm hoping to try on Friday.

0:13:50 > 0:13:52- OK, good.- What if you come back

0:13:52 > 0:13:55and the plate suddenly turns you into the world bowls champion?

0:13:55 > 0:13:57- Wouldn't that be amazing? - That would be wonderful.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00- Titanium was the only thing you were missing!- Yeah, yeah, yeah!

0:14:00 > 0:14:04Now then, Daphne, do you think you can have a punt

0:14:04 > 0:14:06at some of these missing answers on the board?

0:14:06 > 0:14:10I think, but I'm not saying it,

0:14:10 > 0:14:12that Buzz Lightyear might be Tom Hanks.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14I'm going to go for the obvious,

0:14:14 > 0:14:15Jack Dawson is

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Leonardo DiCaprio, I think.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20- Leonardo DiCaprio, says Daphne, for Jack Dawson.- Yeah.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22No red line for you, you're already through to Round Two.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25Let's see how many people said Leonardo DiCaprio.

0:14:27 > 0:14:28It's right.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32- 63. - APPLAUSE

0:14:32 > 0:14:3463 and 97 your total.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Very well done.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Very well played, Daphne.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40It's damage limitation. Very nicely done.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42- Tom Hanks is in Toy Story but he's Woody.- Oh.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Buzz Lightyear is voiced by the comedian Tim Allen.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49Would have scored you 16 points, would have been a very good answer.

0:14:49 > 0:14:50Now, the rest of these...

0:14:50 > 0:14:53- Xander, I bet you'll be quite good at some of these.- I think I can...

0:14:53 > 0:14:57- I can't think who Kim Boggs is. - OK, well Walter Sobchak is...

0:14:57 > 0:14:58- John Goodman.- John Goodman, yes.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01It would have scored you 1 point, so that's a terrific answer.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03Well, Kim Boggs - not Johnny Depp

0:15:03 > 0:15:07but a former partner of Johnny Depp, Winona Ryder.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09She would have scored you 5 points.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12- Stanley Ipkiss...- Is Jim Carrey?

0:15:12 > 0:15:16Jim Carrey, yes. He would have scored you 34. and Frank TJ Mackey?

0:15:16 > 0:15:19- Is that Tom Cruise?- It is Tom Cruise, yeah. Low score, though.

0:15:19 > 0:15:218 points. Not one of his better-known films.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23John Goodman, the best answer there. Well done if you said that.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25Thanks very much indeed.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27At the end of our first round, the pair heading home,

0:15:27 > 0:15:28with a high score of 141...

0:15:28 > 0:15:31I'm sorry, Shirley and Sarah, it is you.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34- Yes, Winona Ryder. That was the one you were looking for.- Yes,

0:15:34 > 0:15:36I might have guessed it was the wrong sex!

0:15:36 > 0:15:39Did you know... Well, Kim goes either way, doesn't it?

0:15:39 > 0:15:42- Kim could be either.- Yeah. OK. Well, we'll see you again next time.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44We look forward to that very much indeed, Shirley and Sarah.

0:15:44 > 0:15:48- Thanks very much for playing. - Thank you.- Thank you. - APPLAUSE

0:15:48 > 0:15:51But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:15:56 > 0:16:01Well, so, three pairs remain. Now, Dan, very well done to you.

0:16:01 > 0:16:03The fourth most intelligent of Richard's children.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06You did very well - lowest score of the round. Fantastic.

0:16:06 > 0:16:10Alex and Ali, combined lowest score so very well done to you.

0:16:10 > 0:16:11Daphne and Ray, pretty good.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14But let's see you through to the head-to-head.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16- Was it head-to-head last time? - Yes.- It was.- I thought it was.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19Yeah, we've got to hope that you make it through at least to the head-to-head.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for around two is...

0:16:24 > 0:16:27Athletics. Daphne less than thrilled with that, I think.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29OK, can you all decide in your pairs

0:16:29 > 0:16:31who's going to go first, who's going to go second.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:16:44 > 0:16:45..as they could.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49Men who've run the Olympic 100m in under ten seconds. Richard?

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Yeah, we're looking for the name of any man

0:16:51 > 0:16:55who has run in an Olympic 100m final under ten seconds, please.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57So any of the men who've done that in Olympic history.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00- Obviously anyone who was later disqualified won't count.- Oh, no!

0:17:00 > 0:17:02They've been disqualified from this, as well?

0:17:02 > 0:17:04- That is unfair. - Yeah, that's harsh, isn't it?

0:17:06 > 0:17:09- Thank you very much indeed. - It's a pleasure!- Now, Ray?

0:17:09 > 0:17:13The only one I can think of is Usain Bolt.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15OK, Usain Bolt.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17Well, it's an answer. Let's see if Usain Bolt is right

0:17:17 > 0:17:20and if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23It's right.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25- 72. - APPLAUSE

0:17:25 > 0:17:26Could be a lot worse, Ray.

0:17:29 > 0:17:319.69 seconds then 9.63 seconds

0:17:31 > 0:17:36to win back-to-back Olympic golds in 2008 and 2012.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39- Thanks very much indeed. Now, Ali...- Yes.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41- Ali, this is your kind of question, I think.- Erm... Yeah.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43I'm going to go...

0:17:43 > 0:17:46I'm a bit worried he might have pulled his hammy and pulled up lame

0:17:46 > 0:17:48but I'm going to go with Asafa Powell.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51- Asafa Pow...?- Powell.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54- Yeah, yeah.- Yeah.- What did I say? - I didn't hear the "ll".

0:17:54 > 0:17:57- Pow.- Asafa Powa?- Just Pow.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59- Oh, Afassa Pow!- Yeah.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01- Asafa Powl. - LAUGHTER

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Exactly!

0:18:03 > 0:18:06Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said it.

0:18:06 > 0:18:07Asafa Pow.

0:18:10 > 0:18:11It's right.

0:18:17 > 0:18:195! Very well done indeed.

0:18:19 > 0:18:21APPLAUSE

0:18:21 > 0:18:23That's a great answer.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28Well played, Ali. Yeah, another Jamaican sprinter.

0:18:28 > 0:18:29Came fifth in 2008.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33- 9.95. Powell, you know, like Colin Powell.- Yeah.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35- Yes! That's what I said! - And Asafa.

0:18:35 > 0:18:36- Powl.- Pow-ell.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38Pow.

0:18:39 > 0:18:40Richard!

0:18:42 > 0:18:45So we want 100m finalists in under ten seconds.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48Erm, I think I'm going to play it fairly safe

0:18:48 > 0:18:52cos I'm certainly sure Dan will have a good answer or two up his sleeve.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54So I will say Linford Christie.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57Linford Christie, says Richard. Linford Christie.

0:18:57 > 0:18:59Let's see if that's right.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01Let's see how many people said that.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04Well, 72's our high, 5's our low.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06You've passed the 72 mark comfortably.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08Down you go. 25 for Linford Christie.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10APPLAUSE

0:19:13 > 0:19:15Well played, Richard. He did it twice.

0:19:15 > 0:19:189.96 to win a gold then 9.97 to win a silver.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21Thanks very much. We're halfway through the round, let's look at those scores.

0:19:21 > 0:19:235 - the best score of that pass, Ali.

0:19:23 > 0:19:24Very well done indeed.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27Then up to 25, where we find Richard and Dan.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30Oh, then it's a long way up, I'm afraid, to 72

0:19:30 > 0:19:32for Ray and Daphne.

0:19:32 > 0:19:36Now, Daphne, I know how thrilled you looked when this round started.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38- Ecstatic.- I know you've got some great answers there.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41- We're going to need a low score... - (You're not going to get one!)

0:19:41 > 0:19:44- ..if you're to remain with us. - You're not going to get one!

0:19:44 > 0:19:46Best of luck. Start making up a brilliant name now!

0:19:46 > 0:19:48Best of luck with that, Daphne. Back down the line, now.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:19:54 > 0:19:56- OK, now, Dan...- Yes.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58So we want the name of any male athlete

0:19:58 > 0:20:02who's run the Olympic 100m final in under ten seconds.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05I've got a couple in mind.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07And I'd imagine they'd be low answers

0:20:07 > 0:20:09but I'm going to go for Kim Collins.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12Kim Collins, says Dan. Kim Collins.

0:20:12 > 0:20:13Here's your red line.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16Get below that, you're in the head-to-head.

0:20:21 > 0:20:22Oh, Dan!

0:20:24 > 0:20:26That is an incorrect answer.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28I'm afraid that scores you the maximum of 100 points,

0:20:28 > 0:20:29and takes your total up to 125.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32It might not be the end of the world, though, Dan.

0:20:32 > 0:20:34Certainly not the end of the round, is all I'm saying.

0:20:34 > 0:20:37That's really unlucky. I would have thought it was a correct answer.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39It's not. He has run under ten seconds

0:20:39 > 0:20:42but not in an Olympic final, I'm afraid.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44Ooh!

0:20:44 > 0:20:46- Alex?- Well, that just saved me actually.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48- Oh, really?- That was really lucky. - Really?

0:20:48 > 0:20:50That was my answer. Erm...

0:20:50 > 0:20:52I've got a fairly random one.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55I've got no idea if he did it in an Olympic final.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58There's a Trinidadian guy called...Ato Bolden.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00- Ato Bolden.- Yeah.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02Listen, even if it's wrong, you're still through

0:21:02 > 0:21:04so you're in a good position to take this kind of punt

0:21:04 > 0:21:06but it could be a brilliant, brilliant answer.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08Let's find out of it is. Ato Bolden.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12It's right!

0:21:12 > 0:21:13Very well done, Alex.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18That is going all the way down!

0:21:18 > 0:21:20- I knew it would! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:21:20 > 0:21:22That's a fabulous answer.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24Fabulous bit of pointless knowledge, there!

0:21:24 > 0:21:27A pointless answer, obviously. It adds £250 to today's jackpot,

0:21:27 > 0:21:28takes the total up to...

0:21:29 > 0:21:32It scores you nothing. It leaves your total at 5.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35That's very impressive indeed, Alex.

0:21:35 > 0:21:37Yeah, very, very well done. He did it twice, actually,

0:21:37 > 0:21:39in 1996 and then again in 2000.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41Won a silver and a bronze.

0:21:41 > 0:21:45- Now then, Daphne.- Mm-hm.- Daphne...

0:21:47 > 0:21:49- Yes.- You've had a bit of time

0:21:49 > 0:21:51to think of some fantastic 100m sprinters.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Well, I'm going to say Carl Lewis

0:21:53 > 0:21:55but I'm sure it's wrong and we're going home.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57- Sorry, folks. Sorry, dear.- OK.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Well, you want to score 52 or less.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01That's what it looks like, there's your red line.

0:22:01 > 0:22:02Let's see if Carl Lewis is right

0:22:02 > 0:22:05and if it is, how many of our 100 people said Carl Lewis.

0:22:07 > 0:22:08- It's right!- Oh!

0:22:10 > 0:22:13- And you're through! - CHEERING

0:22:13 > 0:22:15Very, very well done indeed, Daphne.

0:22:15 > 0:22:1718, that scores you.

0:22:17 > 0:22:18takes your total up to 90,

0:22:18 > 0:22:21wins you your place in the head-to-head.

0:22:21 > 0:22:22Brilliant play.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24Safely through, Daphne. He did it twice, as well.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26Much better score than Ray, as well.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Before we look at the pointless answers,

0:22:28 > 0:22:30I'll give you some of the lowest scorers.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32I know some people at home will have done very well on this.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34You'd have got 1 point for Frankie Fredericks

0:22:34 > 0:22:36and Michael Frater, as well, the Jamaican.

0:22:36 > 0:22:37And Donovan Bailey.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40All of those good answers some people would have got.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42But let's take a look at the pointless answers,

0:22:42 > 0:22:43nine of them in all.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46There's Ato Bolden. Calvin Smith, who ran 9.99.

0:22:46 > 0:22:50Martina, he's done it twice, the Dutch Antilles athlete.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53Dennis Mitchell, he ran 9.99 as well.

0:22:53 > 0:22:57The Portuguese Francis Obikwelu, he won a silver medal.

0:22:57 > 0:23:01Jim Hines, first man to do it at Mexico City in 1968. He ran 9.95.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03Richard Thompson, the folk singer,

0:23:03 > 0:23:06turned his talents to sprinting, briefly(!)

0:23:06 > 0:23:10Shawn Crawford, who ran 9.89 and didn't even win a medal!

0:23:10 > 0:23:12That was a tough Olympic final.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14And Walter Dix - also a pointless answer.

0:23:14 > 0:23:15Well done if you said any of those.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17And let's look at the top three.

0:23:17 > 0:23:18We've already heard all of them

0:23:18 > 0:23:21cos Carl Lewis is actually the third biggest answer of all on 18.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25There's Linford, 25, and Usain Bolt miles ahead on 72.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29So I'm afraid, Dan and Richard,

0:23:29 > 0:23:31it's you leaving us at the end of that round.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34Oh, Dan, you were doing the right thing, there! I'm sorry.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37You're being penalised for too much knowledge! That's what it is.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40I'm really sorry cos you'd have said any of those other ones,

0:23:40 > 0:23:43- wouldn't you? They'd have seen you through.- I had a good few in there, yeah.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45- Pretty unfortunate, yeah. - Oh, I'm really sorry.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47Well, we've loved having you on the show.

0:23:47 > 0:23:51- Thanks so much for playing, Dan and Richard. Great contestants. - APPLAUSE

0:23:51 > 0:23:55But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for the head-to-head.

0:24:00 > 0:24:03Well, congratulations, Alex and Ali, Ray and Daphne,

0:24:03 > 0:24:04you're now one step closer to the final

0:24:04 > 0:24:06and a chance to play for our jackpot,

0:24:06 > 0:24:07which currently stands at...

0:24:12 > 0:24:14We have to decide who's going to play for that money.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16You're now going to go head-to-head.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18The big difference is you're now allowed to confer.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20You can chat before you give your answers.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Alex and Ali, very well done indeed -

0:24:25 > 0:24:26consistent low scorers.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29And also, we've had a pointless answer from you.

0:24:29 > 0:24:32- We've had Asafa Pow, which was... - LAUGHTER

0:24:32 > 0:24:34..which was a great low score.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37And we've had...the other guy, Bolden!

0:24:37 > 0:24:40- LAUGHTER - So very, very well done.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42Ray and Daphne, here you are.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45Two performances in Pointless, two head-to-heads.

0:24:45 > 0:24:46Very, very well done.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49Daphne, you've been fantastic.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51It's a shame about Ray, to quote...

0:24:51 > 0:24:54- Oh, but I love him. - ..to quote The Lemonheads.

0:24:54 > 0:24:55Best of luck to both pairs.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57This is going to be a very exciting third round.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Let's play the head-to-head.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01APPLAUSE

0:25:04 > 0:25:07OK, here comes your first question. And it concerns...

0:25:12 > 0:25:15LAUGHTER

0:25:15 > 0:25:18- Richard?- You don't need anything more from me, do you, on that?- Nope!

0:25:18 > 0:25:21- That might be our longest question ever, maybe.- Let's go ahead.

0:25:21 > 0:25:23We're going to show you five pictures of food.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25You know what they mean by protected status?

0:25:25 > 0:25:27There's certain foods that come from certain places

0:25:27 > 0:25:29and the EU say that nobody else can call a foodstuff that.

0:25:29 > 0:25:33So champagne's only allowed to come from Champagne, that sort of thing.

0:25:33 > 0:25:35We're going to show you five of those from the British Isles.

0:25:35 > 0:25:39We need you to fill in the names that you're going to see. Very best of luck.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42OK, so let's reveal our five protected foodstuffs.

0:25:42 > 0:25:43And here they are.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15OK. There we are.

0:26:15 > 0:26:19Five foodstuffs with geographical protected status.

0:26:19 > 0:26:20Now then, Alex and Ali,

0:26:20 > 0:26:23you've played best throughout the show so you get to go first.

0:26:24 > 0:26:25- Right.- Erm...

0:26:26 > 0:26:29- I don't know about that. - All right...- Shall we go with that?

0:26:29 > 0:26:31We'll take a... I've actually got no idea on any of them.

0:26:31 > 0:26:35But we'll try for D...

0:26:35 > 0:26:36Atlantic salmon?

0:26:37 > 0:26:41OK! Atlantic salmon.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Well, from the protected area that's known as the Atlantic,

0:26:44 > 0:26:46is that what...? OK.

0:26:46 > 0:26:50Right you are. Ray and Daphne, the board is yours.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53- It's Whitstable oysters. - It's Melton Mowbray pork pie.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56I know. Well, A is Whitstable oysters.

0:26:56 > 0:26:59C is Melton Mowbray pork pies.

0:26:59 > 0:27:01D is Arbroath smokies.

0:27:01 > 0:27:05- It's not.- And we don't know the beginning of rhubarb.

0:27:05 > 0:27:09- What do you want to go for?- We'll go for Melton Mowbray pork pies, C.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11You're going to go for Melton Mowbray pork pies.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13C, Melton Mowbray pies. Now,

0:27:13 > 0:27:15Alex and Ali have said Atlantic salmon.

0:27:15 > 0:27:16Atlantic salmon for D.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19- LAUGHTER - Let's see if that's right.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22And if it is, let's see how many people said Atlantic salmon.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26Bad luck.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28Ray and Daphne have said Melton Mowbray pork pie for C.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said it.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34All it has to be is right for you to win the point.

0:27:34 > 0:27:35You win the point.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38- 83! Wow. - APPLAUSE

0:27:43 > 0:27:46So, after one question, Ray and Daphne are up 1-0.

0:27:46 > 0:27:48- Very well done.- Ray and Daphne, you're from Whitstable.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51What do you think Whitstable oysters would have scored?

0:27:51 > 0:27:52It's the right answer, of course.

0:27:52 > 0:27:55- I think it'd be quite low, actually. - What do you reckon, Ray?

0:27:55 > 0:27:58Out of 100, how many people know that speciality of Whitstable?

0:27:58 > 0:28:00I'd... I would say quite high.

0:28:00 > 0:28:04Actually, Whitstable oysters would have scored you 9 points.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07- 9? Oh, crikey!- 9 points. It would have been a very, very good answer.

0:28:07 > 0:28:10- Now, B?- They're Bramleys.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12- They're Bramley apples. - What's the A?- Where they from?

0:28:12 > 0:28:14They're from Armagh.

0:28:14 > 0:28:18Yeah, and that's a pointless answer so very well done if you said that.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Armagh Bramley apples.

0:28:20 > 0:28:23D is the Arbroath smokie, Daphne, as you said.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25That's a smoked haddock. It would have scored you 37.

0:28:25 > 0:28:27If that was an Atlantic salmon,

0:28:27 > 0:28:29you'd send that back, lads, I think. LAUGHTER

0:28:30 > 0:28:33- And E...- It's forced rhubarb.

0:28:33 > 0:28:36- It is forced rhubarb but where do they grow rhubarb?- Yarmouth.

0:28:36 > 0:28:39- I've no idea.- No, there's a very famous triangle

0:28:39 > 0:28:41where they grow most of the rhubarb in the UK.

0:28:41 > 0:28:44- It's in Yorkshire.- Oh. - It's Yorkshire forced rhubarb.

0:28:44 > 0:28:46And that would have scored 12 points.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48So Armagh Bramley apple's the best answer there.

0:28:48 > 0:28:50OK, here comes your second question.

0:28:50 > 0:28:52Alex and Ali, you have to win this one to stay in the game.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55Best of luck. It concerns...

0:28:58 > 0:28:59The British Museum. Richard?

0:28:59 > 0:29:02We're going to give you five clues to facts about the British Museum.

0:29:02 > 0:29:05Can you give us the most obscure answer from these five, please?

0:29:05 > 0:29:08Thanks very much indeed. OK, let's reveal our five facts.

0:29:08 > 0:29:09And here they are.

0:29:26 > 0:29:27I'll read all of those again.

0:29:44 > 0:29:48Now then, Ray and Daphne, you will answer this one first.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50(I only know one, that's the Egyptian king.)

0:29:50 > 0:29:52(Yeah.)

0:29:52 > 0:29:55Well, we're going to have to go for the Egyptian king,

0:29:55 > 0:29:56Tutankhamun.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59Tutankhamun, say Ray and Daphne. Tutankhamun.

0:29:59 > 0:30:01Now then, Alex and Ali, do you think

0:30:01 > 0:30:03you can talk us through the board?

0:30:03 > 0:30:05Eh...

0:30:05 > 0:30:08- No. - LAUGHTER

0:30:08 > 0:30:12OK, well, we think the last one could be the Rosetta Stone.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15- Yeah, that's good. - And then the top, century,

0:30:15 > 0:30:16we would have just made up.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18But let's just go for the last one, the stone.

0:30:18 > 0:30:20You're going to say the Rosetta Stone?

0:30:20 > 0:30:22- The Rosetta Stone.- So, we have Tutankhamun

0:30:22 > 0:30:23and we have the Rosetta Stone.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25Let's see if Tutankhamun's right.

0:30:25 > 0:30:27And if it is, how many people said it.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31Very well done. Oh, look at that!

0:30:31 > 0:30:33- Ray and Daphne. - APPLAUSE

0:30:34 > 0:30:36Your grouping is incredible.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39You scored 83 last question, you've scored 83 this question.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41I wonder if it'll do as well for you.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44Now, Alex and Ali have gone for Rosetta, the Rosetta Stone.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47Let's see if that's right and how many people said that.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50It is of course the Rosetta Stone!

0:30:50 > 0:30:52Very well done indeed.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56- 42. - APPLAUSE

0:30:56 > 0:30:59Well done, Alex and Ali, back in the game.

0:30:59 > 0:31:02- After two questions, it's 1-1. - Well played, gents.

0:31:02 > 0:31:05The Rosetta Stone's been at the British Museum since 1802,

0:31:05 > 0:31:08apart from two years in the First World War, where they kept it

0:31:08 > 0:31:10in one of the tube stations that the postal network use,

0:31:10 > 0:31:1250 feet underground Holborn.

0:31:12 > 0:31:15Let's fill in the rest of these. The century in which it was established.

0:31:15 > 0:31:17- What would you have gone for if you'd had to, guys?- 18th.

0:31:17 > 0:31:20You'd have gone for 18th, Ray. You'd have gone for...?

0:31:20 > 0:31:21Probably 18th, actually.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24Yeah, it's 18th. It was 1753 it was established,

0:31:24 > 0:31:26the first national public museum in the world.

0:31:26 > 0:31:2821 points, that would have scored.

0:31:28 > 0:31:30The principal architect, do you know that one?

0:31:30 > 0:31:322000 was Richard Rogers, wasn't it?

0:31:32 > 0:31:35- The other one, Norman Foster. - Oh, it was Norman Foster.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37Would have scored you 5 points.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39And the director appointed in 2002

0:31:39 > 0:31:41is a gentleman called Neil MacGregor.

0:31:41 > 0:31:43And he would have scored you 3 points.

0:31:43 > 0:31:47Wow! That's quite niche knowledge, isn't it?

0:31:47 > 0:31:49- Or has he done some very famous things?- Well,

0:31:49 > 0:31:52they did The History Of The World In 100 Objects, didn't they?

0:31:52 > 0:31:54- And he was very much behind that. - Ah, yes.

0:31:54 > 0:31:57- So he's been in the news and the papers and what have you. - Yes, good.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59OK, here comes your third question.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02Whoever wins this goes through to the final and plays for that...

0:32:02 > 0:32:03Yeah, it's quite a nice jackpot now.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05So best of luck, both pairs. It concerns...

0:32:09 > 0:32:11Children's television. Now, Richard?

0:32:11 > 0:32:12We're going to show you the names

0:32:12 > 0:32:15of five BBC children's television programmes now

0:32:15 > 0:32:18but we've got them in anagram form.

0:32:18 > 0:32:20Can you unscramble them and give us the best answer?

0:32:20 > 0:32:22Best of luck to both teams.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24OK, let's reveal our five children's TV programmes.

0:32:24 > 0:32:26And here they are. We have got...

0:32:34 > 0:32:35I'll read those all again.

0:32:43 > 0:32:45There we are, five anagrams of children's shows.

0:32:45 > 0:32:47Alex and Ali, you will go first again, this time.

0:32:47 > 0:32:50- I know the last one... That's the only one.- OK,

0:32:50 > 0:32:52I think go for it.

0:32:52 > 0:32:55OK, I've just got a mind blank

0:32:55 > 0:32:57apart from the last one.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00The last one is Pingu.

0:33:00 > 0:33:02Pingu, say Alex and Ali.

0:33:02 > 0:33:04Ray and Daphne, what are you going to go for?

0:33:04 > 0:33:07Well, I think we're going to go for the first one,

0:33:07 > 0:33:08Horrible Histories.

0:33:08 > 0:33:11Horrible Histories.

0:33:11 > 0:33:14So we have Pingu and we have Horrible Histories.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16Alex and Ali said Pingu. Let's see if that's right.

0:33:16 > 0:33:17How many people said Pingu?

0:33:20 > 0:33:21It's right.

0:33:25 > 0:33:28- 47 for Pingu. - APPLAUSE

0:33:30 > 0:33:32Ray and Daphne have gone for Horrible Histories.

0:33:32 > 0:33:33Let's see if that's right

0:33:33 > 0:33:36and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:33:38 > 0:33:39It's right.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41If this goes down past 47...

0:33:41 > 0:33:42And it does!

0:33:42 > 0:33:44You are through to the final. Very well done indeed.

0:33:44 > 0:33:48- Oh, 1! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:33:50 > 0:33:52Fantastic work, Ray and Daphne.

0:33:52 > 0:33:55That means after three questions, you're through to the final 2-1.

0:33:55 > 0:33:57- Very well done. - Best answer up there, well played.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59Who got that one?

0:33:59 > 0:34:00- We both did.- Very nice.

0:34:00 > 0:34:03- Very well done!- I got one! - Joint effort.

0:34:03 > 0:34:06Let's take a look through the rest of these. Pass bug?

0:34:06 > 0:34:08- Bagpuss.- Bagpuss, yes.

0:34:08 > 0:34:10That would have scored 33.

0:34:10 > 0:34:12Wonder Sun?

0:34:13 > 0:34:16- Erm...- Anyone in the audience?

0:34:16 > 0:34:18- AUDIENCE MEMBER:- Newsround.- Oh!

0:34:18 > 0:34:20- Newsround, very well played. - Very good.

0:34:20 > 0:34:21That would have scored 4 points.

0:34:21 > 0:34:23And alcohol spy was Play School

0:34:23 > 0:34:25and that would have scored you 9 points.

0:34:25 > 0:34:28So Horrible Histories - the best answer there. Very well played.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31Well done to anyone who got all five. I suspect that's a very small group.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33Thanks very much indeed.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:34:35 > 0:34:38it's Alex and Ali. You played so well throughout the show.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40And some brilliant answering there!

0:34:40 > 0:34:41Rosetta Stone, particularly good.

0:34:41 > 0:34:44Atlantic salmon we might just forget about for now but...

0:34:44 > 0:34:46Good news is we'll get to see you again next time

0:34:46 > 0:34:48and I'm sure you'll do just as well, if not better.

0:34:48 > 0:34:51Thanks very much for playing, Alex and Ali. Great contestants.

0:34:51 > 0:34:54- APPLAUSE - It's OK. Good luck.

0:34:54 > 0:34:58But for Daphne and Ray, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:01 > 0:35:03Congratulations, Ray and Daphne.

0:35:03 > 0:35:04You've seen off all the competition

0:35:04 > 0:35:07and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:07 > 0:35:09- Many congratulations.- Thank you.

0:35:13 > 0:35:16You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:35:16 > 0:35:18And at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at...

0:35:19 > 0:35:22CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:35:24 > 0:35:25Well, very well done.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27Last time, you made it through to the head-to-head

0:35:27 > 0:35:29as our lowest scoring pair.

0:35:29 > 0:35:31You weren't our lowest scoring pair this time

0:35:31 > 0:35:34and you soared through to the final. Well done. And do you know what?

0:35:34 > 0:35:37Our two lowest scoring answers from you on the whole show

0:35:37 > 0:35:40were Carl Lewis, Daphne, very well done indeed,

0:35:40 > 0:35:41and Horrible Histories.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44Who really came up with Horrible Histories?

0:35:44 > 0:35:46- BOTH: It was a joint effort. - Well done, well done!

0:35:46 > 0:35:49- It was.- A proper team effort so very, very well done.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51What would you like to see come up in this last round?

0:35:51 > 0:35:52Anything we can answer.

0:35:52 > 0:35:55Brilliant. I think that's one of the options so let's hope.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58As always, you kick this round off by choosing your category

0:35:58 > 0:36:01and there are four options for you to choose from. And they are...

0:36:07 > 0:36:10- I know '90s football.- Well, you... - Or bestselling albums.

0:36:10 > 0:36:13- No, not bestselling albums, I wouldn't know.- '90s football?

0:36:13 > 0:36:16- Yeah, go on. Go with that. I don't know.- '90s football,

0:36:16 > 0:36:18- I think.- '90s football, OK.

0:36:18 > 0:36:20'90s football it is. Richard.

0:36:20 > 0:36:23OK, here are your three categories.

0:36:23 > 0:36:24Take your answers from any of these three.

0:36:24 > 0:36:28The first one and third one are similar, the second one is a bit of a curveball.

0:36:28 > 0:36:30We're looking for any team

0:36:30 > 0:36:33that played in an FA Cup semifinal in the 1990s.

0:36:33 > 0:36:34We're looking for any...

0:36:38 > 0:36:39So any player named in that squad.

0:36:39 > 0:36:41Or any...

0:36:45 > 0:36:46So...

0:36:52 > 0:36:53Very, very best of luck.

0:36:53 > 0:36:55As always, you've got up to one minute

0:36:55 > 0:36:56to come up with three answers.

0:36:56 > 0:36:58To win that jackpot of £4,500,

0:36:58 > 0:37:00all you need to do is find just one pointless answer.

0:37:00 > 0:37:02Now remember, the answers you provide

0:37:02 > 0:37:04can come from any of these three categories.

0:37:04 > 0:37:08All three from one category, one from each...entirely up to you.

0:37:08 > 0:37:09Are you ready?

0:37:10 > 0:37:14- I think so.- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the board.

0:37:14 > 0:37:17There they are. Your time starts now.

0:37:17 > 0:37:19FA Cup semifinalists.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Erm...

0:37:21 > 0:37:23We'll go for the obvious ones - Arsenal.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29- West Brom, I think.- Right.

0:37:29 > 0:37:301990s...

0:37:30 > 0:37:32Arsenal, West Brom,

0:37:32 > 0:37:34I think Newcastle were there.

0:37:37 > 0:37:39West Ham.

0:37:39 > 0:37:43Right, shall we go for West Bram... West Brom, West Ham.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48I'm trying to think of another one. Sheffield?

0:37:48 > 0:37:52Sheffield...Sheffield United, I think might have got there.

0:37:52 > 0:37:54Right.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56Apart from that, I'm struggling.

0:38:00 > 0:38:04- Right, Sheffield United...- Yeah. - ..West Brom...

0:38:04 > 0:38:06- Yeah.- Ten seconds left.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08And Arsenal.

0:38:08 > 0:38:11- I can't think of anything else. - You say it.

0:38:11 > 0:38:13- No, I think that's about...- Right.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16- OK, you think you've thought of your three?- Yeah.

0:38:16 > 0:38:18OK, that's your time up. Let's have your answers.

0:38:18 > 0:38:22- What are they?- From the...- Cup. - ..cup semifinalists of the '90s,

0:38:22 > 0:38:24- Arsenal...- Arsenal.

0:38:24 > 0:38:27- ..West Bromwich Albion... - West Bromwich Albion.

0:38:27 > 0:38:29And what was the other one we said?

0:38:29 > 0:38:31- Sheffield United. - Oh, Sheffield United.

0:38:31 > 0:38:33And Sheffield United. Now, of those three,

0:38:33 > 0:38:35which is your best shot at a pointless answer, do you think?

0:38:35 > 0:38:38Well, if it's right, it'd be Sheffield United.

0:38:38 > 0:38:41- Sheffield United we'll put last. Least likely? Arsenal?- Arsenal.

0:38:41 > 0:38:43- Yeah, Arsenal.- OK, Arsenal we'll put up first.

0:38:43 > 0:38:45And West Brom in the middle.

0:38:45 > 0:38:47OK, let's put those up on the board in that order.

0:38:47 > 0:38:49And here they are. We have got...

0:38:53 > 0:38:55Well, very, very best of luck. Your first answer was Arsenal.

0:38:55 > 0:38:57If this is right and it is pointless,

0:38:57 > 0:38:59you will leave here with £4,500.

0:38:59 > 0:39:03Ray, what would you have planned for that kind of a win?

0:39:03 > 0:39:05Well, the first thing we would do

0:39:05 > 0:39:08is book a flight to New Zealand.

0:39:08 > 0:39:11It's my brother's golden wedding in March

0:39:11 > 0:39:14and we'd love to go there and surprise him.

0:39:14 > 0:39:18- Good stuff.- I've seen him four times in 50 years.- Wow.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20- Oh, well, that would be lovely. - That would be a surprise.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23Daphne, anything else you'd got your eye on?

0:39:23 > 0:39:27- I would like a new lounge suite. - LAUGHTER

0:39:27 > 0:39:31Now, Ray, if you ask me, that doesn't depend on a win either.

0:39:31 > 0:39:33- That was a...- No.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35Consider that a Christmas list.

0:39:35 > 0:39:37- OK. Very, very best of luck. - Thank you.

0:39:37 > 0:39:39Your first answer, Arsenal.

0:39:39 > 0:39:41For £4,500, let's find out

0:39:41 > 0:39:44if they were FA Cup semifinalists in the '90s.

0:39:46 > 0:39:48Yes, they were.

0:39:48 > 0:39:51Now, if Arsenal takes us all the way down to 0,

0:39:51 > 0:39:54you will leave here one trip to New Zealand...

0:39:54 > 0:39:56- Oh. - APPLAUSE

0:39:56 > 0:39:5845.

0:40:00 > 0:40:02I think we'd all have been quite surprised

0:40:02 > 0:40:03- if that'd been pointless.- Yeah.

0:40:03 > 0:40:06But we now move onto slightly more pointless territory, here.

0:40:06 > 0:40:09That's no slight against West Bromwich Albion, you understand!

0:40:09 > 0:40:12But we're now getting to the more rarefied end

0:40:12 > 0:40:14of the pointless column, there.

0:40:14 > 0:40:15Your second answer, West Brom.

0:40:15 > 0:40:17Let's find out.

0:40:17 > 0:40:20If it's correct and it's pointless, it wins you that jackpot of £4,500.

0:40:20 > 0:40:21So let's find out -

0:40:21 > 0:40:24West Bromwich Albion, were they FA Cup semifinalists in the '90s?

0:40:28 > 0:40:30No, bad luck!

0:40:30 > 0:40:31Bad luck. They weren't.

0:40:31 > 0:40:33Which means everything is now riding

0:40:33 > 0:40:35on your third and final answer, Sheffield United.

0:40:35 > 0:40:37But you were pretty confident this was your best shot

0:40:37 > 0:40:40at a pointless answer. So if this is right,

0:40:40 > 0:40:42it could be very exciting indeed.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44So for £4,500, let's find out

0:40:44 > 0:40:48if Sheffield United were ever FA Cup semifinalists in the 1990s.

0:40:53 > 0:40:55Oh, yes, they were!

0:40:55 > 0:40:57You doubted it there for a moment, Daphne.

0:40:57 > 0:40:59Your first answer, Arsenal, took you down to 45.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01Your second answer, West Brom, was incorrect.

0:41:01 > 0:41:03Your third and final, Sheffield United,

0:41:03 > 0:41:04is taking you down...

0:41:04 > 0:41:08- Yes, you have done it! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:41:08 > 0:41:10Very, very well done indeed!

0:41:12 > 0:41:15That is brilliant! Well done, that's superb.

0:41:15 > 0:41:17- Thank you.- Very well done indeed.

0:41:21 > 0:41:22Thank you!

0:41:25 > 0:41:28Very, very well done indeed.

0:41:28 > 0:41:29Congratulations.

0:41:29 > 0:41:32Sheffield United was a pointless answer,

0:41:32 > 0:41:36which means you leave here with £4,500 in your back pockets.

0:41:36 > 0:41:39The suite is yours, the trip to New Zealand, let's hope.

0:41:39 > 0:41:41- Yes!- Oh, all these things can be planned.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43That's very exciting indeed. Very well done indeed.

0:41:43 > 0:41:48- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Wonderful, wonderful performance.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50Oh, that's great.

0:41:50 > 0:41:53- You're absolutely crying! - Isn't that lovely?

0:41:53 > 0:41:54Isn't that lovely?

0:41:54 > 0:41:56Very, very well played, Ray and Daphne.

0:41:56 > 0:41:59We will miss you. I wish you could come back every show,

0:41:59 > 0:42:01- you've been such a pleasure to be on here.- Thank you.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03Sheffield United fans won't like reminding

0:42:03 > 0:42:07- but they lost to Sheffield Wednesday in the 1993 FA Cup semifinal.- Oh!

0:42:07 > 0:42:10Let's take a look at some of the other pointless answers

0:42:10 > 0:42:12cos people at home will be playing along.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15You could have had Crystal Palace, Middlesbrough, or Sunderland.

0:42:15 > 0:42:18Luton Town was the only other pointless answer, there.

0:42:18 > 0:42:20I know football fans, so I know you'll be seeing Chesterfield.

0:42:20 > 0:42:23That would have scored you 1 point, Chesterfield.

0:42:23 > 0:42:26Let's take a look at some of the Arsenal players.

0:42:26 > 0:42:29Emmanuel Petit, Freddie Ljungberg would have been a pointless answer.

0:42:29 > 0:42:30Luis Boa Morte,

0:42:30 > 0:42:32Stuart Taylor, the goalkeeper.

0:42:32 > 0:42:35You could also have had another goalie, Alex Manninger.

0:42:35 > 0:42:36You could have had Gilles Grimandi.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38You could have had John Lukic, another goalkeeper.

0:42:38 > 0:42:40You could have Kanu, Luhzny...

0:42:40 > 0:42:42You could have had Stefan Malz or Sylvinho.

0:42:42 > 0:42:45All of those were pointless answers. Well done if you said any of those.

0:42:45 > 0:42:47And there's only three pointless answers

0:42:47 > 0:42:49for the Scottish semifinalists.

0:42:52 > 0:42:55But Sheffield United wins the money. So delighted.

0:42:55 > 0:42:56Thank you so much for playing,

0:42:56 > 0:42:59- it's been an absolute pleasure. - Thank you. Thank you very much.

0:42:59 > 0:43:01Wonderful. Are you going to keep this a secret from your brother?

0:43:01 > 0:43:04- BOTH: Oh, yes.- Oh, fantastic!- Yeah.

0:43:04 > 0:43:07Good stuff. Well, many, many congratulations.

0:43:07 > 0:43:10Thanks once again to our wonderful winning players, Ray and Daphne,

0:43:10 > 0:43:14- who go away with today's jackpot of £4,500.- Thank you. - APPLAUSE

0:43:16 > 0:43:17Join us next time,

0:43:17 > 0:43:20when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.

0:43:20 > 0:43:21- It's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:21 > 0:43:23And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye!

0:43:23 > 0:43:26APPLAUSE
