0:00:20 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong
0:00:24 > 0:00:27and a warm welcome to Pointless, the quiz show where obvious answers
0:00:27 > 0:00:30mean nothing and obscure answers mean everything.
0:00:30 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.
0:00:31 > 0:00:35APPLAUSE
0:00:35 > 0:00:37And couple number one.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Hello, I'm Paul. This is my friend, Sarah,
0:00:39 > 0:00:42- we're from Stevenage in Hertfordshire.- Couple number two?
0:00:42 > 0:00:46I'm Tony, this is Bread. We're brothers-in-law from Mansfield in Nottinghamshire.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Couple number three.
0:00:47 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Alex, this is Ali, and we are students from Bristol.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53And finally, couple number four.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hello, I'm Shirley from Henley-on-Thames
0:00:55 > 0:00:58and this is my friend, Sarah, who lives in Somerset.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02We also met at university a couple of years before Ali and Alex.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03LAUGHTER
0:01:03 > 0:01:05And these are today's contestants.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08APPLAUSE
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Thanks, all of you. We'll find out more about you throughout the show
0:01:11 > 0:01:13which leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16The most heavily tattooed co-host in TV history,
0:01:16 > 0:01:18just don't ask him to show you where they are.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Hiya. Hi, everybody. APPLAUSE
0:01:26 > 0:01:30- Good afternoon.- And to you.- I don't wish to alarm you...
0:01:30 > 0:01:33- Oh, yeah?- ..but I spotted something.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39- We've got the contestant called Bread.- Oh, yeah, I know. - Have you noticed that?
0:01:39 > 0:01:43- Is he really called Bread, or...? - I don't know. Or is it a nickname or...?
0:01:43 > 0:01:46We don't normally allow nicknames so perhaps he really is called Bread.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Let's just go on as normal as if nothing's happened.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53- Like it's a normal show?- Yeah. - Then we'll get to the Bread bit? - Yeah.- Good idea...
0:01:53 > 0:01:57- What a great show we've got lined up today!- Yeah.- It'll be terrific.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Alex and Ali are back. They were very, very strong last time.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02- Very.- Got through to the head-to-head.
0:02:02 > 0:02:03Did ever so well as well.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Shirley and Sarah, we saw less of, but again, I suspect you just had
0:02:07 > 0:02:11a difficult question so we might see more of you today as well.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Didn't we have a lovely end to the last show with Ray and Daphne?
0:02:14 > 0:02:16- Ray was in tears, it was lovely. - Yeah.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- They won the jackpot, and they played so well throughout as well, didn't they?- Yeah.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21So it was absolutely lovely.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24But, yeah, should be a cracker today. (Don't forget Bread!)
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Won't forget Bread. Thanks very much, Richard.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30All our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34Our contestants here need to find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Everyone's trying to find a Pointless answer, an answer none of our 100 people gave,
0:02:37 > 0:02:40and each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Daphne and Ray won the jackpot last time such today's jackpot
0:02:43 > 0:02:45starts off back at £1,000.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55OK, in this first round, I'll take an answer from each of you
0:02:55 > 0:02:58but there is, of course, to be no conferring between you.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Whichever pair has the highest score at the end of the round will be heading home.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Our first category is
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Famous People. Famous People.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second?
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:18 > 0:03:22Famous Scots. Famous Scots, Richard.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25On each pass, we'll give you descriptions of seven famous Scottish people,
0:03:25 > 0:03:29you just have to tell us who they are, please. There'll be 14 in all to have a go at at home,
0:03:29 > 0:03:31see how many you can get.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34Thanks very much. So we're looking for the names of these famous Scots.
0:03:34 > 0:03:39Here are clues to their identities. Our first board of seven reads like this.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09I'll read those all one last time.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Now, Sarah and Paul, you all drew lots before the show
0:04:38 > 0:04:43- and today you're going to go first. Sarah M, welcome.- Yes, hello.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45- Good to have you here.- Thank you. - From Stevenage.- Yes.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48- What do you do, Sarah? - I work part-time, I've got two jobs,
0:04:48 > 0:04:52- so I work in accounts and I'm also a cycling instructor.- Wow.
0:04:52 > 0:04:57- So accounts for...- Accounts for a large multinational company.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- Oh, I see, right.- Accounts department.- And for fun on the side?
0:05:00 > 0:05:03It's paid as well, I work for the county council as a cycling instructor.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07- We go into schools and train, like cycling proficiency.- With cones? Yeah.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- And roads as well, not just cones in playgrounds.- Fantastic, OK. Good stuff.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15- And what do you do in your... assuming there's a bit of spare time somewhere?- Oh, yes.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19- Horse riding's my big hobby, love horse riding.- Good, OK.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Now, what about these Scots?
0:05:21 > 0:05:25Yes, I definitely know a couple but I'm going to...
0:05:25 > 0:05:29Somewhere in the back of my mind, the bottom answer, I have a feeling it might be William Wallace.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32William Wallace, says Sarah. Let's see if that's right
0:05:32 > 0:05:35and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said William Wallace.
0:05:38 > 0:05:39It's absolutely right.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- 47.- That's OK, isn't it? - APPLAUSE
0:05:46 > 0:05:4947 for William Wallace.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Famously portrayed by Mel Gibson in the film, Braveheart.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55- They say he was six foot seven, William Wallace.- That is very tall.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59- That's very tall. Freakishly tall. Wouldn't want to be that tall. - Whoa, that's tall!
0:05:59 > 0:06:01That's judging by the size of his sword.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03That's what they say. Big feet, big sword.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05LAUGHTER
0:06:05 > 0:06:09- Yep.- Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Bread, welcome to Pointless.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Bread, what do you do?
0:06:11 > 0:06:14I'm a manager in the drinks dispensing industry.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16And what do you do in your spare time, Bread?
0:06:16 > 0:06:18I like to follow the England cricket team throughout the world
0:06:18 > 0:06:22- as part of the Barmy Army. - Right, good. That takes up quite a bit of time.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25- It does, yeah.- How often do you go away on tour with them?
0:06:25 > 0:06:29- Probably twice a year at least, if I can.- Oh, really, you do? You are that dedicated?
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Yes, I do as much as I can, really. Two or three weeks at a time.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34OK, now, Bread, what are you going to go for?
0:06:34 > 0:06:37I know a couple there, but it's not my strongest subject.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39I think I'll go for the
0:06:39 > 0:06:43"sang 'I Dreamed A Dream' on Britain's Got Talent"
0:06:43 > 0:06:44and Susan Boyle.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47SuBo, says Bread, let's see if that's right,
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Susan Boyle for 'I Dreamed A Dream', let's see how many people said that.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Well, it's right.
0:06:55 > 0:06:5947 was William Wallace. 64, Susan Boyle.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00APPLAUSE
0:07:01 > 0:07:06- Yes, she's worth about £22 million now, Susan Boyle.- Amazing.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Huge selling debut album.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12- Are you going to ask Bread where he got his name from? - We'll come to that.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16- I thought I wouldn't come straight at it.- That's a really good idea. - Don't want to put him on edge.
0:07:16 > 0:07:20In case he goes nuts. Yeah.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23Alex, welcome back. Remind us what you do, Alex.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25We're both students at Bristol.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29I do Spanish and Portuguese, and Ali does French.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- You're coming to the end of your second year?- Yeah.
0:07:32 > 0:07:37- Your third year, you have Argentina, Brazil.- Travels, yeah.- OK, good.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Alex, what are you going to do with these famous Scots?
0:07:40 > 0:07:43I've just got a mind-blank so I will go for the obvious one
0:07:43 > 0:07:48- which is the celebrity chef, Gordon Ramsay.- Gordon Ramsay, says Alex.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52OK, well, Susan Boyle's been our highest scorer so far on 64.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Let's see how Gordon Ramsay does.
0:07:57 > 0:07:58It's right.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Well done, not the highest score.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Not even the second-highest score, lowest score so far, Alex.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08APPLAUSE
0:08:08 > 0:08:11- Surprisingly low score, isn't it, for Gordon Ramsay?- Yeah.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13He got in trouble recently in America, someone asked for
0:08:13 > 0:08:16the red mullet and he brought it out. They said, "I'd like some ketchup."
0:08:16 > 0:08:19The restaurant said, "We don't have ketchup here."
0:08:19 > 0:08:20He said, "Go out and buy some."
0:08:20 > 0:08:24And Gordon Ramsay came out of the kitchen and threw him out of the restaurant.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28- Wow.- Yeah.- Thanks very much indeed. Now then, Shirley.
0:08:28 > 0:08:29- Yes, hello.- Welcome back.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32- Thank you.- What happened last time, Shirley?
0:08:32 > 0:08:36Well, I'm afraid I got Winona Ryder muddled up with Johnny Depp.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40- It's easily done!- It is very easily done, they look very similar.
0:08:40 > 0:08:41LAUGHTER
0:08:41 > 0:08:45But here we are in Round One again. This time, much, much easier.
0:08:45 > 0:08:46Much, much easier.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49- Are you happy with this as a question, generally?- Well, um...
0:08:49 > 0:08:53I don't know the top two, I'm afraid.
0:08:53 > 0:08:58I think the steam engine inventor is James Watt
0:08:58 > 0:09:02and I think the Chariots Of Fire runner as Eric Liddell.
0:09:02 > 0:09:06Because of my experience last time, I'll probably play safe
0:09:06 > 0:09:07and go for James Watt, I think.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09- You're going to go for James Watt? - Yes.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12OK, let's find out how many of our 100 people said James Watt for JW.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19Well done, 36 is our lowest score so far.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22You pass it, 35. Well done, Shirley.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23APPLAUSE
0:09:23 > 0:09:28On course to avoid last time's Round One sending off.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Well played, Shirley. You could've seen yourself safe and sound
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- if you'd said Eric Liddell, much better answer.- Yes, I'm sure it was
0:09:33 > 0:09:37but I was just not 100% sure of the surname.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- It's right, and would've scored eight points.- Oh!- Ooh!- Terrific answer.- Sorry, Sarah.
0:09:40 > 0:09:45Both of his parents were missionaries and after the Olympics, he went out to be a missionary as well, to China.
0:09:45 > 0:09:50- The top one is...do you know that? Sheena Easton.- No!- Yep. Sheena Easton...
0:09:50 > 0:09:54- Then went on to sing with Prince. - ..would've scored you 16. She did indeed.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57And the philosopher? Is David Hume.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00- Would've scored three points, that's the best answer up there. - Thanks very much.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Halfway through the round, let's look at the scores.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05- Shirley, well done, much more like it.- Thank you.
0:10:05 > 0:10:0835, the lowest score of that pass so, Shirley and Sarah,
0:10:08 > 0:10:11I think can feel confident at this stage.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Then up to 36 where we find Alex and Ali, very well done.
0:10:13 > 0:10:19Up to 47, Sarah M and Paul and then up to 64, Bread and Tony.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23You're not masses out in front but you are out in front. So, Tony,
0:10:23 > 0:10:26we need a nice, low score. Best of luck, we'll come back down the line,
0:10:26 > 0:10:29Can the second players, please, step up to the podium?
0:10:31 > 0:10:34OK, let's put seven more clues up on the board to Famous Scots
0:10:34 > 0:10:35and here they are.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03All read those all one last time.
0:11:28 > 0:11:33There we are, seven clues to seven Scots. Sarah H, welcome back.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- Thank you.- Remind us what you do, Sarah.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38I marry people for a living, amongst other things, yes.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40You marry, you're a registrar?
0:11:40 > 0:11:43- I'm a registrar.- Which is a lovely job.- Yes.
0:11:43 > 0:11:44And in your spare time, Sarah?
0:11:44 > 0:11:47I love gardening, travelling. France, particularly.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Good stuff. What will you go for? You've got first dibs of this board.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Yes. I could really impress Shirley's husband
0:11:53 > 0:11:55and go for the football one but I'm not,
0:11:55 > 0:11:59I'm going to go for the scientific one.
0:11:59 > 0:12:03I'm going to try Alexander Fleming for the discoverer of penicillin.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07Alexander Fleming. OK, well, you're on 35, you're the lowest scorers.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10The high scorers are on 64. If you can score 28 or less,
0:12:10 > 0:12:13you'll avoid becoming the new high scorers. Let's see if you can.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Alexander Fleming - how many people said it, is it right?
0:12:16 > 0:12:17There's your red line.
0:12:20 > 0:12:21Well, it's absolutely right.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27Down you come...ooh! Almost through the red line.
0:12:27 > 0:12:2929, you score, I think that's good enough.
0:12:29 > 0:12:30APPLAUSE
0:12:30 > 0:12:3464 is your total, that should see you through to the next round.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36He used to work as a clerk in a shipping office
0:12:36 > 0:12:39and then he got a small legacy that allowed him to study medicine
0:12:39 > 0:12:41at St Mary's and then before you know it,
0:12:41 > 0:12:44he won the Nobel Prize for Physiology and Medicine.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47- On these tiny little things, lives can change, can't they?- Mm.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53- Ali.- Yes.- Just remind us what you do, you're also at Bristol?- Yes.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55- Do you study... - I study French.- OK.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58And I will be spending the next year in Paris.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00In Paris. Have you got a job sorted?
0:13:00 > 0:13:05Er...I don't want to jinx it, but it's a phone call away.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09OK, now then, Ali. What about this board of Scots?
0:13:09 > 0:13:12I think the one which, in my eyes, is most obvious
0:13:12 > 0:13:17is the one I'm going to choose which is former Liverpool FC player
0:13:17 > 0:13:21- and manager, Kenny or Kenneth Dalglish.- Kenny of Kenneth Dalglish,
0:13:21 > 0:13:24says Ali, just in case Kenny wasn't accepted!
0:13:24 > 0:13:25LAUGHTER
0:13:25 > 0:13:29There is your red line, get below that, you're comfortably through
0:13:29 > 0:13:32to the next round. Let's see how many of our 100 people said Kenny Dalglish.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36It's absolutely right, of course.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40- 63, it scores, 99, your total. - APPLAUSE
0:13:40 > 0:13:43- I think that should see you through. - That's a pretty big score.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47It will be very interesting on those last two podiums. An absolute legend, Kenny Dalglish.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Kenneth Dalglish as I call him.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52But on his very first game for Celtic,
0:13:52 > 0:13:56one of his team-mates said to him, "Are you nervous?" He said, "No, why?"
0:13:56 > 0:14:00And then looked down, he realised he'd put his boots on the wrong feet.
0:14:01 > 0:14:06- Now then, Tony. That ain't Bread. - That's Tony.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08SMATTERING OF LAUGHTER
0:14:08 > 0:14:12There we are. Two people enjoyed that, thank you!
0:14:12 > 0:14:16Tony, welcome to the show. What do you do, Tony?
0:14:16 > 0:14:18I work at...I'm a warehouse supervisor.
0:14:18 > 0:14:24- I work for a large DIY chain. - Any forklift...antics?
0:14:24 > 0:14:30- Not so much forklifts.- OK. - A lot of hiding in boxes.- OK!
0:14:30 > 0:14:33- I'm so pleased to know that about... - You would hope so, wouldn't you?
0:14:33 > 0:14:37..about this famous warehouse DIY outlet.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39Tony, what do you do in your spare time?
0:14:39 > 0:14:44I play cricket with Craig...with Bread, sorry.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48- Ooh!- Ooh, OK!- Time-out. AUDIENCE: Oooh!
0:14:48 > 0:14:51- We just got a massive clue there. - Yeah.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55- I think Bread isn't his real name. - That's a little chink in the armour, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59- He's called Craig.- Yeah.- I might start calling you Craig.
0:14:59 > 0:15:00See how you like that.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03LAUGHTER
0:15:03 > 0:15:05OK, Tony, what are you going to go for? Famous Scots.
0:15:05 > 0:15:11You are currently on 64, you were the high scorers at half-time.
0:15:11 > 0:15:16I do know a couple on there, but I think they'll all be high-scoring.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19I think I'm going to go with the lead singer of rock group Travis.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22- I think it's Fran Healy. - Fran Healy, says Tony, Fran Healy.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Here comes your red line. Get below that with Fran Healy,
0:15:25 > 0:15:26you're in Round Two.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Let's see if it's right and how many people said Fran Healy.
0:15:31 > 0:15:32It's right.
0:15:35 > 0:15:39And you're in Round Two, very well done indeed, 16 for Fran Healy.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41APPLAUSE
0:15:41 > 0:15:4480 is your total. Nice, round total there.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47That's a very good answer, the brilliant Fran Healy.
0:15:47 > 0:15:48Lives in Berlin now.
0:15:48 > 0:15:52Ali was talking to Bread earlier, he kept calling him "Brioche".
0:15:52 > 0:15:55LAUGHTER
0:15:55 > 0:16:02- Interesting.- Yeah.- Interesting. Now, Paul. Welcome.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04From Stevenage, what do you do, Paul?
0:16:04 > 0:16:07I work as a warehouseman in a small company in Letchworth
0:16:07 > 0:16:09which is just north of Stevenage.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13- Any box antics?- Of course, that's the good thing about working in a warehouse.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16- And in your spare time, Paul? - I'm a keen cyclist.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18I'm a member of the Cyclists' Touring Club
0:16:18 > 0:16:21and there are weekly organised events.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25A few times a year, there's longer organised events.
0:16:25 > 0:16:30OK, there is a board of Scots and there are still four unanswered.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Do you think you could talk us through them?
0:16:32 > 0:16:36Well, there's one I've got no idea about, which is the businesswoman.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39I think I know the other three.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42The one I would go for, the pointless answer would be
0:16:42 > 0:16:45the host of the TV series Changing Rooms, is Carol Smillie.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48Carol Smillie, says Paul for CS.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54Now then, Ali and Alex, watching this one very closely indeed.
0:16:54 > 0:16:59They're currently on 99 which is represented by this mark here.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03You get below that red line, Paul, you are through to the next round.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Carol Smillie, how many people said it, is it right?
0:17:08 > 0:17:09It is right...
0:17:11 > 0:17:13..and you're through.
0:17:13 > 0:17:18Through you go. 25, Carol Smillie, takes your total up to 72.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20APPLAUSE
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Very well played, Paul. Yes, Carol Smillie.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Lots of lovely people on this list. She's one of them, 25 points.
0:17:26 > 0:17:30- Let's look through the rest. The Formula One World Drivers' champion was...- Jackie Stewart.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34Yes, would've scored 45 points. The co-presenter on breakfast time TV show Daybreak...
0:17:34 > 0:17:39- Is Lorraine Kelly. - Lovely Lorraine Kelly, she would've scored 46 points.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41- And do you know the businesswoman? - No.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43You often see on The Apprentice and various other things,
0:17:43 > 0:17:46it's Michelle Mone and would've scored you seven points,
0:17:46 > 0:17:49- so it's the best answer up there. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53At the end of our first round, I can't believe this, Ali and Alex...
0:17:53 > 0:17:55I mean, you were the champions last time.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59Every single round, you barely scored a thing.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00HE SIGHS
0:18:00 > 0:18:03- I'm really sorry we have to say goodbye, it's been brilliant. - BOTH:- Thank you.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05It seems far too soon.
0:18:05 > 0:18:09- Anyway, Ali and Alex, thanks so much. Best of luck in your finals. - Thanks, mate.- Thank you.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11APPLAUSE
0:18:11 > 0:18:15But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22Well, three pairs remain. You've seen off one of our returning pairs.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Our other returning pair, Shirley and Sarah,
0:18:24 > 0:18:28left in Round One last time so welcome to Round Two,
0:18:28 > 0:18:31all three pairs. I think this will be very close. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Our category for Round Two
0:18:33 > 0:18:34is English Football.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36SHIRLEY AND SARAH CHUCKLE
0:18:36 > 0:18:38English Football.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Can you all decide in your pairs who'll go first and second?
0:18:40 > 0:18:43And whoever's going first, please, step up to the podium.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Let's find out what the question is, here it comes.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many footballers
0:18:51 > 0:18:54who have captained England five or more times.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57Footballers who've captained England five or more times. Richard.
0:18:57 > 0:19:01We're looking for the name of any man who has started a game as England captain five or more times
0:19:01 > 0:19:03since the end of World War II, please.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07So anyone who's captained England five or more times, that's to February 2013.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10- Very, very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:19:10 > 0:19:16- So, Sarah M, we come to you first. - It's not going to be a low score, but...
0:19:16 > 0:19:17- OK.- ..I can give you an answer.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20Well, have a think about it, don't rush into it.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24- I'm sure there'll be quite a lot of names you know.- Not really, no.
0:19:24 > 0:19:30I wouldn't go that far. But I have got a name. Can I say Gary Lineker?
0:19:30 > 0:19:33OK, Gary Lineker, says Sarah. Let's see if that's right
0:19:33 > 0:19:36and if it is, how many of our 100 people said Gary Lineker.
0:19:38 > 0:19:39It's right.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46- Wow, 20.- Thank you.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47APPLAUSE
0:19:47 > 0:19:4820 for Gary Lineker.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54- Captain 18 times, very good answer, Sarah.- Thanks much indeed.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58- Now, Tony. - Yeah, I've got quite a few.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02I'm trying to think of an obscure one. Erm...
0:20:04 > 0:20:07I'm going to go - Peter Shilton, a good goalkeeper.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Peter Shilton, says Tony. Let's see if that's right,
0:20:10 > 0:20:13let's see how many people said that, Peter Shilton.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Very well done indeed, Tony. Six.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25APPLAUSE
0:20:26 > 0:20:30- Six for Peter Shilton. - Captained England 15 times,
0:20:30 > 0:20:33he's also England's most ever capped player, 125.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37He's also the player who's played the most competitive football matches of anyone in history.
0:20:37 > 0:20:411,390, beating Pele into second place, funnily enough.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Wow, I have just been statistic-ed!
0:20:44 > 0:20:49- Yeah.- Cor! That's good, though.- Yes. - Good.- He's played a lot of football. - Yeah.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51Now then, Shirley.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55Any footballer who's captained England five times or more.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Erm...I'm going to take a risk again. Sorry, Sarah!
0:20:58 > 0:21:01I'm going to say somebody called David Platt.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04David Platt, says Shirley, somebody called David Platt.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many of our 100 people said David Platt.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12- It's right.- Shirley!- Oh, goodness!
0:21:12 > 0:21:16- Very well done, Shirley. Look at that.- Fantastic!
0:21:16 > 0:21:19- Down it goes, the best score so far, Shirley.- Yay!
0:21:19 > 0:21:23APPLAUSE
0:21:23 > 0:21:24Woo!
0:21:24 > 0:21:25ALEXANDER CHUCKLES
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Very well done indeed.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30That's a terrific answer, Shirley. Very, very well done.
0:21:30 > 0:21:34- Captained England 19 times, David Platt.- Thanks very much indeed. Let's look at the scores.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37We're halfway through the round. Two for you, Shirley.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Brilliant, very well-deserved. Good thinking, good memory
0:21:40 > 0:21:42and a little bit of luck, so well done, two.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Then up to six where we find Tony and Bread,
0:21:45 > 0:21:48then up to 20, Sarah and Paul. So, Paul,
0:21:48 > 0:21:52whatever happens, it's between you and Sarah. We need a low score from you.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Best of luck. We'll come back down the line.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Can the second players, please, step up to the podium?
0:21:59 > 0:22:03- OK, Sarah. How brilliant was that from Shirley?- Amazing.- Fabulous.
0:22:03 > 0:22:08- Yes, it's just about to be wiped out completely!- Now then, Sarah.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11- Yes.- You need to score 17 or less... - I do, no pressure!
0:22:11 > 0:22:14..to avoid becoming the new high scorers.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17- OK. I'm going to go back in time just a little bit.- This is good.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19I'm going to go for...
0:22:19 > 0:22:23- Bobby Moore.- Bobby Moore, says Sarah. Bobby Moore.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26Now, there is your red line. Bobby Moore, all well and good.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30It has to get below that red line. Let's see if it will.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Let's see how many people said Bobby Moore.
0:22:39 > 0:22:4250 for Bobby Moore, takes your total up to 52.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44- All is not lost though, Sarah. - APPLAUSE
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Yeah, 90 times, he captained England, Bobby Moore.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51Of course, most famously in the 1966 World Cup final as well,
0:22:51 > 0:22:55- which has stuck in people's memory, I think.- Mm, as it would.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59Bread. So come on, then, Craig.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01ALEXANDER SIGHS
0:23:01 > 0:23:04- Why Bread?- It's as simple as my brother got called Meatloaf once
0:23:04 > 0:23:06and I got Bread as the younger version,
0:23:06 > 0:23:08and it's stuck for the last 15, 16 years.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Is bread a younger version of meatloaf? I had no idea.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14That's what it starts as and it grows into meatloaf?
0:23:14 > 0:23:18- Surely meatball is a smaller version of meatloaf.- Yeah!
0:23:18 > 0:23:21- Meatslice.- It was a random one on a night out, that's where it came from.- Ah, right.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23I've come to win some dough anyway, so...
0:23:23 > 0:23:26And Bread... That's good, OK.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29- Well, you have to "prove" it first. - AUDIENCE GROANS
0:23:29 > 0:23:31"Prove" yourself, sorry. Oh, dear!
0:23:31 > 0:23:36- Hopefully, I can "rise" to the occasion.- This is just superb, yeah!
0:23:36 > 0:23:38We don't need any more of these, guys.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42OK, now, we want the name of any footballer
0:23:42 > 0:23:44who's captained England five times or more.
0:23:44 > 0:23:49I know quite a few, but I think I might play it a little bit safe
0:23:49 > 0:23:51and go for Frank Lampard.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54Frank Lampard says Bread, Frank Lampard.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57There's your red line, let's see if you can get below that red line,
0:23:57 > 0:23:59and secure your place in the head-to-head.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Ooh, Bread!
0:24:05 > 0:24:11Oh, that ain't Bread, but also that ain't toast either, I'm afraid.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14I'm afraid that ain't Bread, you're toast, I'm afraid, is probably nearer the mark.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18Actually, maybe not, I don't know. It all hangs in Paul's hands.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, Frank Lampard,
0:24:20 > 0:24:24scores you the maximum of 100 points, takes your total up to 106.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27I'm sorry, Bread/Meatball,
0:24:27 > 0:24:30he's only captained England four times, Frank Lampard.
0:24:30 > 0:24:31AUDIENCE GROANS
0:24:31 > 0:24:33And Frank Lampard Senior, who's also played for England,
0:24:33 > 0:24:35never captained England.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Now, Paul. Paul, how is your football?
0:24:39 > 0:24:43Er, not too bad, yeah, should be OK with this.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45OK. Talk us through your answers if you'd like.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48You need to score 85 or less.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51Right, I was trying to think of obscure ones,
0:24:51 > 0:24:54but now I'm going to play a bit more safer.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57I would say a recent one, Steven Gerrard.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00Steven Gerrard, says Paul. Here comes your red line.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03If you get below that, you're in our head-to-head.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05How many of our 100 people said Steven Gerrard?
0:25:08 > 0:25:10It's right, and you're through. Very well done.
0:25:13 > 0:25:1528.
0:25:15 > 0:25:16APPLAUSE
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Takes your total up to 48.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22Very well played, Paul. Safely through.
0:25:22 > 0:25:23Let's look at the pointless answers.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Very well done if you said any of these.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28George Hardwick, who was England captain in the 1940s,
0:25:28 > 0:25:30captained every game that he played in.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Gerry Francis would've been a pointless answer,
0:25:33 > 0:25:34the wonderful Jimmy Armfield as well.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37Paul Ince, the Guv'nor, he would have been a pointless answer for you.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Phil Thompson, the Liverpool player,
0:25:39 > 0:25:41now a pundit, would've been pointless.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44And Blackburn's Ronnie Clayton. Well done if you said Ronnie Clayton.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Him and George Hardwick, probably the best of the pointless answers there.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Let's take a look at the most common answers,
0:25:49 > 0:25:52the ones that most of our 100 people said when we asked them online.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55John Terry would have scored you 39 points.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Bobby Moore there with 50, and, right at the top,
0:25:58 > 0:26:02as you might have expected, David Beckham on 61.
0:26:02 > 0:26:03Thanks very much indeed.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06So, at the end of our second round, Bread and Tony, I'm sorry to say...
0:26:06 > 0:26:10I mean, surely the hot favourites in that round to go through.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13Yeah, I could name five to ten, probably,
0:26:13 > 0:26:14and I went for the wrong one.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17Well, he was only one armband off it, though, for heaven's sake.
0:26:17 > 0:26:21We have to say goodbye, but the good news is we'll get to see you again next time.
0:26:21 > 0:26:22We'll look forward to that.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Thanks very much for playing meanwhile.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27APPLAUSE
0:26:27 > 0:26:30But, for the remaining two pairs, it's time for the head-to-head.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Congratulations Shirley and Sarah, Sarah and Paul.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40You are now one step closer to the final
0:26:40 > 0:26:42and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:26:42 > 0:26:43which currently stands at £1,000.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46We need to decide who's going to play for that money
0:26:46 > 0:26:48and, to do that, you're going to go head-to-head.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50The difference is you're now allowed to confer.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53The first pair to win two questions will play for the money.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Best of luck to both players. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:27:00 > 0:27:05OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Bones. Richard?
0:27:07 > 0:27:09We're going to show you five pictures of a skeleton
0:27:09 > 0:27:12with arrows pointing to a bone or group of bones.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14We need the scientific or medical name for that bone
0:27:14 > 0:27:16or group of bones, please. Good luck.
0:27:16 > 0:27:20OK, yes, let's reveal our five groups of bones, and here they are.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22We have got...
0:27:38 > 0:27:41There we are. Five bones. Now, Shirley and Sarah,
0:27:41 > 0:27:44you've played best throughout the show so far so you get to go first.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48Fibula or scapular... Nickname for C, shoulder?
0:27:48 > 0:27:51- Shall we go... - I'm not sure it is the shoulder,
0:27:51 > 0:27:53I think it's collarbone.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55I know we need to give the medical terms,
0:27:55 > 0:27:58so I think we should go for the one I know, and that's D, coccyx.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01Would like to go for D, coccyx, please.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04D, coccyx, say Shirley and Sarah H. D, coccyx.
0:28:04 > 0:28:09Now, Sarah M and Paul, can you talk us through that board of bones?
0:28:09 > 0:28:14Got an idea... I think A is either tibia or fibula, I'm not sure.
0:28:14 > 0:28:18B might be sternum. C, scapular.
0:28:18 > 0:28:19D, coccyx, I think's right,
0:28:19 > 0:28:22and radius and ulna I think are your bones in your arm,
0:28:22 > 0:28:25but I don't know which is which, so I think I have to go B, sternum.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29B, sternum, say Sarah M and Paul.
0:28:29 > 0:28:33Sternum. Shirley and Sarah H said coccyx. Let's see if that's right,
0:28:33 > 0:28:36let's see how many of our 100 people said coccyx.
0:28:39 > 0:28:40It's right.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43Ooh, it's quite a high score, 70.
0:28:46 > 0:28:50Sarah M and Paul have gone for sternum. Let's see if that's right.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52If it is, let's see how many people said that.
0:28:54 > 0:28:56It's right,
0:28:56 > 0:28:59and it wins the point. Very well done. 49.
0:29:01 > 0:29:05Good work, Sarah M and Paul. You've broken their serve.
0:29:05 > 0:29:08After one question, it's 1-0.
0:29:08 > 0:29:09Well played, Sarah M, there.
0:29:09 > 0:29:14Yes, A, those bones are the tibia and fibula but that one is the tibia,
0:29:14 > 0:29:17and would have scored you 14 points.
0:29:18 > 0:29:23C is the collarbone, which is the clavicle.
0:29:23 > 0:29:27That would have scored 29. Not the scapula.
0:29:27 > 0:29:31And E, again that's the radius and the ulna in the lower arm,
0:29:31 > 0:29:35and that one is the radius. That would have scored you 8 points.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37So, very well done if you got that at home.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40Thank you very much indeed. OK, here comes your second question.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43Shirley and Sarah H, you have to win this one to stay in the game.
0:29:43 > 0:29:44Good luck. It concerns...
0:29:47 > 0:29:49Beatrix Potter books. Richard.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52We'll show you the title of five Beatrix Potter books.
0:29:52 > 0:29:55We've left out last word of each title. Can you fill them in, please?
0:29:55 > 0:30:00OK, let's reveal our five Beatrix Potter titles with missing words.
0:30:00 > 0:30:01Here they are.
0:30:11 > 0:30:12I'll read those one last time.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25Sarah M and Paul, you go first this time.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27I don't know whether to gamble or go for it,
0:30:27 > 0:30:30- cos it's Squirrel Nutkin, Peter Rabbit's definitely right.- Yeah.
0:30:30 > 0:30:34Or do we gamble... It's either Ginger & Tom, or Timmy.
0:30:34 > 0:30:39We think the right answers, we're not sure of a couple of them,
0:30:39 > 0:30:42but we think it's The Tale Of Ginger & Tom.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45The Tale Of Ginger & Tom, say Sarah M and Paul.
0:30:45 > 0:30:49Ginger & Tom. Shirley and Sarah H, do you want to talk us through
0:30:49 > 0:30:52- the rest of the board?- I would love to. The only one I think we know
0:30:52 > 0:30:54other than the one we're going to give you
0:30:54 > 0:30:56is The Tale Of Peter Rabbit, but we think...
0:30:56 > 0:30:59- That's not the one we'll give you. - No, we won't give you that one.
0:30:59 > 0:31:03With like to go for the top one, please, The Tale Of Squirrel Nutkin.
0:31:03 > 0:31:07Squirrel Nutkin. So we have Ginger & Tom, and Squirrel Nutkin.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10Sarah M and Paul said Ginger & Tom.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13Let's see if that's right, and how many people said it.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18No, bad luck, not Ginger & Tom.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20Which means Shirley and Sarah H,
0:31:20 > 0:31:24Squirrel Nutkin merely has to be correct and you're back in the game.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28It is correct, very well done.
0:31:28 > 0:31:30Down it goes to 54.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33APPLAUSE
0:31:33 > 0:31:35You've broken back.
0:31:35 > 0:31:38So, there we are, after two questions it's 1-1.
0:31:38 > 0:31:39Yeah, not Ginger & Tom.
0:31:39 > 0:31:45Ginger is a tom cat, and opens a shop with a terrier called Pickles.
0:31:45 > 0:31:49That would've scored you five points, the best answer on the board.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51The tale of Peter Rabbit is a very big scorer,
0:31:51 > 0:31:54would have scored you 94 points.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57- It's the Tale Of Pigling... - Bland.- ..Bland, yes.
0:31:57 > 0:31:59Would have scored you 20.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02And the one at the bottom is about a squirrel
0:32:02 > 0:32:06who is accused of stealing nuts. That squirrel is called Timmy...
0:32:06 > 0:32:09- Timmy Tiptoes. - It is Timmy Tiptoes, yeah.
0:32:09 > 0:32:12The Tale Of Timmy Tiptoes, would've scored you 10 points.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14Very well done if you got all of those.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16Thank you very much indeed. OK, here comes your third question.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18Whoever wins this goes through to the final
0:32:18 > 0:32:21and plays for that jackpot. It concerns...
0:32:23 > 0:32:25Sylvester Stallone.
0:32:25 > 0:32:28Now, Shirley and Sarah H, you will go first this time.
0:32:28 > 0:32:31What better way to decide things than with five clues
0:32:31 > 0:32:33to facts about Sylvester Stallone?
0:32:33 > 0:32:36Whoever gives us the most obscure answer will play for the jackpot.
0:32:36 > 0:32:40- Good luck.- OK, let's reveal our five facts, and here they are.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58I'll read those one last time.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14Shirley and Sarah H.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16I know...
0:33:16 > 0:33:20I know what his name was in the Rocky film, shall we go for that?
0:33:20 > 0:33:22THEY WHISPER
0:33:22 > 0:33:25We're going to go for a dead cert and hope that...
0:33:25 > 0:33:28Sorry, Sarah and Paul.
0:33:28 > 0:33:33Rocky Balboa as his name in the six feature films.
0:33:33 > 0:33:37Rocky Balboa, say Shirley and Sarah H. Sarah M and Paul?
0:33:37 > 0:33:41Erm... Bottom two I have no idea about.
0:33:41 > 0:33:45US state I would guess at New York,
0:33:45 > 0:33:48so I wouldn't go for that one cos it's a guess.
0:33:48 > 0:33:53First name of his mother I think was Jackie.
0:33:53 > 0:33:57So I'll go with that one, his mother's name was Jackie Stallone.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59OK, you're going to go with Jackie Stallone.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02So we have Rocky Balboa and we have Jackie Stallone.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04Shirley and Sarah H said Rocky Balboa.
0:34:04 > 0:34:09Let's see if that's right, and how many of our 100 people said Rocky Balboa.
0:34:12 > 0:34:13It's right.
0:34:15 > 0:34:1648.
0:34:19 > 0:34:2348. Sarah M and Paul have gone for Jackie Stallone.
0:34:23 > 0:34:24Let's see if that's right
0:34:24 > 0:34:28and if it is how many people said Jackie Stallone.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31It's right.
0:34:31 > 0:34:32If it beats 48...
0:34:32 > 0:34:34And it does! You are through to the final.
0:34:34 > 0:34:3632 for Jackie Stallone.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38APPLAUSE
0:34:38 > 0:34:41Which means, Sarah M and Paul,
0:34:41 > 0:34:44after three questions, you're through to the final 2-1.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47Yeah, famously appeared on Celebrity Big Brother, Jackie Stallone.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49Made quite an impact. 32 points.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52The US state, your guess was correct, it is New York.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55Would have scored you 9 points.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59The 1989 buddy cop movie, do you know that one?
0:34:59 > 0:35:02You'll recognise the name, it's Tango & Cash.
0:35:02 > 0:35:03Would have scored you 11.
0:35:03 > 0:35:07And the reality TV boxing show he produced was called The Contender,
0:35:07 > 0:35:09that's the best answer on the board, 6 points.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12Thanks very much indeed. So, the pair leaving us
0:35:12 > 0:35:15at the end of the head-to-head round is Shirley and Sarah.
0:35:15 > 0:35:17But what a great performance throughout the show.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20I'm afraid we have to say goodbye, it's the end of the road.
0:35:20 > 0:35:24But it's been great having you on the show. Thank you so much for playing, Shirley and Sarah.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26APPLAUSE
0:35:26 > 0:35:30But, for Sarah and Paul, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:33 > 0:35:35Well, congratulations, Sarah and Paul.
0:35:35 > 0:35:36You fought off all the competition
0:35:36 > 0:35:39and you have won our extremely coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,
0:35:47 > 0:35:50and at the end of today's show it stands at £1,000.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52There we are. Well, you've done brilliantly.
0:35:52 > 0:35:55It's your first performance on Pointless,
0:35:55 > 0:35:57and you've come straight through to the final.
0:35:57 > 0:36:00You see, it just goes to show, proper, solid performance
0:36:00 > 0:36:03and it reaps this kind of dividend. Very well done.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05What would you like to see come up in this last round?
0:36:05 > 0:36:09Music could be good. Sport would be good.
0:36:09 > 0:36:13- Sarah?- More geography, history, the arts for me.- OK, good.
0:36:13 > 0:36:17Well, you're covering several bases between you. Best of luck.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19Now, as always, you kick this round off by choosing a category
0:36:19 > 0:36:22and you have four options to choose from. They are...
0:36:29 > 0:36:32- I'd say Winston Churchill or Madrid. - I'd say Winston Churchill.- Yeah.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35- Winston Churchill.- Winston Churchill it is. OK, Richard.
0:36:35 > 0:36:39OK, here's your three choices within that. Choose from any of these.
0:36:39 > 0:36:43We are looking for the name of any constituency that Winston Churchill ever represented.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45We need the name at the time he was elected, please.
0:36:45 > 0:36:48We're looking for any Cabinet post he held during his career.
0:36:48 > 0:36:50And we are looking for any Prime Minister
0:36:50 > 0:36:53during Winston Churchill's lifetime.
0:36:53 > 0:36:55So, any of his Parliamentary constituencies,
0:36:55 > 0:36:57any Cabinet post he held during his career,
0:36:57 > 0:37:00or any UK Prime Minister during Winston Churchill's lifetime.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03- Very, very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:37:03 > 0:37:06You've got up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:37:06 > 0:37:09and all you need to win that jackpot of £1,000 is for just one of those
0:37:09 > 0:37:11to be pointless. Now, remember,
0:37:11 > 0:37:13the answers you give can come from any of these categories.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16It's up to you how you spread them across those categories.
0:37:16 > 0:37:19They can all come from the same category, one from each, up to you.
0:37:19 > 0:37:23- Are you ready?- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29- Top one's out, cos I wouldn't know any of those.- Yeah.
0:37:29 > 0:37:33- I know a few of the Cabinet posts. - Such as? Is it a good one to go for?
0:37:33 > 0:37:35I think that's the best one we should go for.
0:37:35 > 0:37:39- He was obviously Prime Minister... - We won't accept Prime Minister, guys.
0:37:39 > 0:37:45- He was Home Secretary.- Yeah, yeah. - Chancellor of the Exchequer.- Was he?
0:37:45 > 0:37:48He was Admiral of the Fleet just before the,
0:37:48 > 0:37:50- as the Second World War broke out. - Is that a Cabinet post?
0:37:50 > 0:37:53- I think that's a Cabinet post. - OK, that's good.
0:37:53 > 0:37:54We've still got 30 seconds.
0:37:54 > 0:37:58How about prime ministers during his lifetime? Have you got any?
0:37:58 > 0:38:01- When was he born? - Clement Attlee, Anthony Eden...
0:38:01 > 0:38:03Alec Douglas-Home.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06Erm...Harold Macmillan.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08I don't think any of those are pointless enough.
0:38:08 > 0:38:09OK, so, Cabinet posts.
0:38:09 > 0:38:13You could go for one Prime Minister and two Cabinet posts.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16- I'm not been much help here, am I?- Ten seconds left.
0:38:16 > 0:38:20- One Prime Minister and two Cabinet posts.- You think that's best?
0:38:20 > 0:38:23- I think that's the best one, yeah. - Yeah, I'd go for Prime Minister.
0:38:23 > 0:38:27- Alec Douglas-Home as Prime Minister? - Hume or Home?- OK.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29That's your time up. I now need your three answers.
0:38:29 > 0:38:30What are you going to give me?
0:38:30 > 0:38:34The Prime Minister I will go for is Alec Douglas-Home...
0:38:34 > 0:38:38- Alec Douglas-Home. - ..who was Prime Minister in 1963.
0:38:38 > 0:38:42Cabinet post I would go for would be Chancellor of the Exchequer...
0:38:42 > 0:38:45- Chancellor of the Exchequer. - ..and Admiral of the Fleet.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47And Admiral of the Fleet. Of those three answers,
0:38:47 > 0:38:50which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Most likely would be Admiral of the Fleet.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55Admiral of the Fleet we'll put last. Which is your least likely?
0:38:56 > 0:39:00- Er, Chancellor of the Exchequer. - Chancellor of the Exchequer we'll put first.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02Let's put those answers up on the board in that order.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04Here they are. We have got...
0:39:09 > 0:39:12Your first answer was Chancellor of the Exchequer.
0:39:12 > 0:39:16Now, if this is pointless, you will win today's jackpot.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19I mean, it is back at its beginning, its starter level, £1,000.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22Still, it's quite a nice thing to walk away with.
0:39:22 > 0:39:23What would you do with that, Sarah?
0:39:23 > 0:39:26I've always wanted to learn carriage driving, actually,
0:39:26 > 0:39:30- I'd have some horse and carriage... - Well, you ride.- Yes.
0:39:30 > 0:39:34I've always wanted to book some lessons and do that.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Oh, good, a good thing to do. Paul, how about you?
0:39:36 > 0:39:40- I think a new bike, I think. - A new bike. Good stuff.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43Well, best of luck. Three answers on the board there.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46Let's hope one of those will win that jackpot for you.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49Your first answer was Chancellor of the Exchequer.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52Let's find out, for £1,000, if it is pointless.
0:39:52 > 0:39:56Let's find out if it is a Cabinet position that Winston Churchill held.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00It's right.
0:40:00 > 0:40:01Well, it's your first answer,
0:40:01 > 0:40:04the one you thought was probably least likely to be pointless,
0:40:04 > 0:40:07but if it goes all the way down to zero you leave here with £1,000.
0:40:07 > 0:40:11It's taking us down...to 20. Not bad.
0:40:14 > 0:40:16Not bad.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18Not pointless, though, I'm afraid,
0:40:18 > 0:40:20which means only two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:20 > 0:40:23Your second answer was Alec Douglas-Home.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26Again, if it's pointless it will win you that jackpot.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28So, for £1,000, let's find out, was Alec Douglas-Home
0:40:28 > 0:40:31a Prime Minister during Winston Churchill's lifetime?
0:40:33 > 0:40:35Yes, he was.
0:40:35 > 0:40:38Well, your first answer of Chancellor of the Exchequer
0:40:38 > 0:40:40took us down to 20.
0:40:40 > 0:40:43Your second answer, Alec Douglas-Home, passes the 20 mark,
0:40:43 > 0:40:45down into single figures, taking us down...
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Oh, 3! Very well done.
0:40:48 > 0:40:51APPLAUSE
0:40:51 > 0:40:54This is all moving in a very, very pleasing direction.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56We've come down from 20 to 3.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59There is now one answer left on the board,
0:40:59 > 0:41:02your third and final answer, which was Admiral of the Fleet.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04You thought this was your best shot at a pointless answer.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06For £1,000, let's find out,
0:41:06 > 0:41:10did Churchill ever hold the Cabinet post of Admiral of the Fleet?
0:41:13 > 0:41:15Oh, bad luck.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18APPLAUSE
0:41:18 > 0:41:20Well, two very good answers there on the board,
0:41:20 > 0:41:23the second particularly good, Alec Douglas-Home there.
0:41:23 > 0:41:26But you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer,
0:41:26 > 0:41:28which means you don't win today's jackpot of £1,000.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30That will rollover on to the next show,
0:41:30 > 0:41:33but we've enjoyed having you on the programme. Thank you for playing.
0:41:33 > 0:41:36You do, of course, get a Pointless trophy, so there you are.
0:41:36 > 0:41:38Thank you.
0:41:38 > 0:41:39APPLAUSE
0:41:42 > 0:41:45Yeah, Admiral of the Fleet not a Cabinet post, I'm afraid,
0:41:45 > 0:41:47and Churchill never was Admiral of the Fleet.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49He was the First Lord of the Admiralty, which was a Cabinet post.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Would've scored 6 points,
0:41:51 > 0:41:53so wouldn't have been a pointless answer if you'd said it.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56Let's take a look at the pointless answers in the categories.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58Quite a tough one, this one.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00The Parliamentary constituencies,
0:42:00 > 0:42:03he represented five different Parliamentary constituencies,
0:42:03 > 0:42:05two that would have scored you points, Woodford and Oldham,
0:42:05 > 0:42:08but the other three were all pointless.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10Very well done if you said any of those.
0:42:12 > 0:42:13The Cabinet posts he held,
0:42:13 > 0:42:15he was the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster,
0:42:15 > 0:42:18he was Colonial Secretary, don't have that any more.
0:42:18 > 0:42:19He was the President of the Board of Trade,
0:42:19 > 0:42:21and Secretary of State for Air,
0:42:21 > 0:42:24which sounds weird, but you sort of know what they mean.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27And the prime ministers during his lifetime,
0:42:27 > 0:42:29you could've had Arthur Balfour,
0:42:29 > 0:42:31you could've had the Earl of Rosebery,
0:42:31 > 0:42:33or you could've had Henry Campbell-Bannerman as well.
0:42:33 > 0:42:37I'm sure some people would have got some of those.
0:42:37 > 0:42:41I hope nothing there is throwing up too many signals for you.
0:42:41 > 0:42:44OK, well, we have to say goodbye to you, Sarah and Paul.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47It's been great having you on the show, thank you so much for playing.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49APPLAUSE
0:42:49 > 0:42:52Sadly, Sarah and Paul didn't win our jackpot today, which means it
0:42:52 > 0:42:56rolls over onto the next show, when we will be playing for £2,000.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00Join us next time, see if someone can win it.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02- It's goodbye from Richard... - Goodbye.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
