0:00:18 > 0:00:21APPLAUSE
0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thanks very much indeed! Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome
0:00:24 > 0:00:27to Pointless, the show where the more obscure your knowledge,
0:00:27 > 0:00:30the better your chances of winning. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:33 > 0:00:37- Couple number one.- Hello, I'm Rory, I'm from London,
0:00:37 > 0:00:39and this is my mate Karim. He's from Cambridge.
0:00:39 > 0:00:43- Couple number two.- Hello, I'm Lee and this is my daughter, Hannah,
0:00:43 > 0:00:44and we're from Eastbourne.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47- Couple number three.- Hello, I'm James, this is my son, Chris,
0:00:47 > 0:00:49and we're from Portsmouth in Hampshire.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52- And finally, couple number four.- I'm Stephanie, this is my friend Pearl,
0:00:52 > 0:00:55- we're from Walton-on-Thames. - And these are today's contestants.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58APPLAUSE
0:00:58 > 0:01:01Thanks very much. We'll find more about you throughout the show
0:01:01 > 0:01:04as it goes along. That just leaves one more person for me to introduce,
0:01:04 > 0:01:08a man whose mantra is, "Up here for thinking, down there for dancing."
0:01:08 > 0:01:11- It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18What were you pointing at there?
0:01:18 > 0:01:22- Feet.- Oh, OK, gotcha. I wondered where that was going, for a minute.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Down, but feet.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28Two good returning pairs, James and Chris and Lee and Hannah.
0:01:28 > 0:01:29Both did all right last time.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33James and Chris undone by cricket, I'm afraid.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37And while it is lovely to have Karim and Rory on the show, I think
0:01:37 > 0:01:39I'm thinking what everyone's thinking, which is
0:01:39 > 0:01:42- we want Pearl to win, don't we? - Course we do.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45No disrespect - the six of you, the seven of you - I adore you,
0:01:45 > 0:01:47wonderful people.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50But I think it would be a nice thing to do for everyone just right
0:01:50 > 0:01:54now to lay down and let Pearl take the title.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58Let Pearl win the next time, cos then we get two shows with Pearl.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00If she goes through to the final this time...
0:02:00 > 0:02:03So, let Pearl get through to the head-to-head this time, everyone.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07So, the three teams, by all means, fight it out amongst yourselves.
0:02:07 > 0:02:12And then next time we let Pearl free-ride, yes?
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Agreed, everyone at home? Happy? Yep?
0:02:15 > 0:02:19- They don't need any help. Stephanie and Pearl are dynamite.- I think so.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21I don't think they need any charity to get through to the final.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24I only have one concern, and that is Pearl might be trouble.
0:02:24 > 0:02:29- Don't you think?- Yeah, yeah.- You know you've got to behave, don't you?
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Yes!
0:02:31 > 0:02:32What a shame!
0:02:33 > 0:02:36Thank you, Richard. Now, all our questions on Pointless have been put
0:02:36 > 0:02:39to 100 people before the show. Our contestants need to find the obscure
0:02:39 > 0:02:42answers those 100 people didn't get and, of course, everyone's trying
0:02:42 > 0:02:45to find a pointless answer, that being an answer that none of our
0:02:45 > 0:02:48100 people gave. Each time that happens, we will add £250
0:02:48 > 0:02:51to the jackpot. Now, Ram and Steven won the jackpot last time,
0:02:51 > 0:02:55so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Remember, the pair with the highest score at the end of the round
0:03:04 > 0:03:07will be eliminated. Also remember there is to be no conferring
0:03:07 > 0:03:10in the first two rounds. Our first category today is...
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:03:16 > 0:03:18who's going to go second.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:03:35 > 0:03:38- Richard.- We're looking for any word with its own entry
0:03:38 > 0:03:40in the Oxford Dictionary of English that ends "OIL".
0:03:40 > 0:03:44As always, no hyphenated words, abbreviations, proper nouns,
0:03:44 > 0:03:47anything like that. Just any word ending "OIL."
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Very, very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Now then, Karim and Rory, you all drew lots before the show
0:03:53 > 0:03:55and today you are going to go first.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Karim, always tough being on the first podium in a words round.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00- Not quite as much time to think. - Indeed.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03- What do you do, Karim?- I own a watch company in Cambridge.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05That's fun. Do you have a shop or do you do it online?
0:04:05 > 0:04:08No, it's online, so we design and assemble everything.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Let's see what you're wearing at the moment.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14- Oh, you and Rory.- Yeah.- That's one from, one of yours?- Yes.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18Excellent. Now, Karim, what are you hoping's going to come up?
0:04:18 > 0:04:22Probably culture, I guess. Film.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24Would probably be good for me.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29- OK.- Some sport.- And, I hope, words ending in "OIL".- Maybe.
0:04:29 > 0:04:30Have you got one?
0:04:30 > 0:04:34Yes. I think I'm going to go for "turmoil."
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Ah, turmoil, says Karim. I like that. Turmoil.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Let's see if it's right and if it is, let's see how many
0:04:39 > 0:04:40of our 100 people said turmoil.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44It's right, obviously.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47I think this is going to be a low score, Karim.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Oh, it is - 15. Well done.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53APPLAUSE
0:04:53 > 0:04:5615 for turmoil.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Great start, Karim, on that first podium. Tough with these rounds.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02"A state of great confusion, disturbance, uncertainty."
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Turmoil would be a great name for some sort of liquor, wouldn't it?
0:05:05 > 0:05:10Yeah, it would. It'd be a good cocktail, wouldn't it?
0:05:10 > 0:05:11I'll have a Turmoil, please.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13That's a good drop.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Anyway, I'll come back to you on that.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19- Hannah, welcome back.- Thanks, hi.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Now, it was head-to-head last time, wasn't it? Yes.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- We just choose the wrong answer. - You did.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26There was an ABBA round with clues.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30- Mum knew all the answers.- You went SOS and Lee knew Head Over Heels.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34- Yeah, she did.- You won't make that mistake again.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37- No.- No, not today. Not today.- No.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Through to the final this time but not win it,
0:05:39 > 0:05:43- that's what we've agreed.- Well, we only came here for the trophy, so...
0:05:43 > 0:05:44- Thank goodness.- Perfect.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Now then, Hannah, words ending "OIL."
0:05:47 > 0:05:50I'm going to go with "toil."
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Toil. OK, toil, says Hannah. Let's see if that's right
0:05:52 > 0:05:55and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said toil.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Obviously it's right.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Look at that - 83!
0:06:01 > 0:06:02APPLAUSE
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Wow. Toil.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Fancy that. Who knew toil would be so popular?
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Anyway, 83 it scores you. It's better than 100.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15- Yeah, true.- It's high, though.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19It's a big score for toil. It's what they drill for in Yorkshire.
0:06:19 > 0:06:23LAUGHTER
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- Chris, welcome back.- Thank you.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29- Now, you are a primary school teacher.- Yes, that's right.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33- And as we discovered last time, you do puppet shows.- Yes.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Do you make the puppets yourself?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38- No, no, I haven't quite got the skill for that yet.- It's very easy!
0:06:38 > 0:06:40I remember making puppets.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43Little balloon and some papier mache and you're away.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46I'll try that. Maybe I could do an Alexander and a Richard puppet...
0:06:46 > 0:06:49You'd have to work on our voices.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52And you need a lot of papier mache for me.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Now then, Chris, what about a word ending "OIL"?
0:06:54 > 0:06:56You've had a little bit of time.
0:06:56 > 0:07:02Um...I think I'm going to play it relatively safe and go for "soil."
0:07:02 > 0:07:04That is safe.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08That is safe. But never mind, let's see. Soil, is it right?
0:07:08 > 0:07:11And if it is, how many of our 100 people said soil?
0:07:14 > 0:07:15Oh, 76. Not bad.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18APPLAUSE
0:07:18 > 0:07:23I was getting ready for that to be higher than toil but it wasn't.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- Very good.- It's another big score.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Chris, if you ever want to see how to do a perfect appalled face
0:07:28 > 0:07:31watch this show back and just watch your dad when you said "soil."
0:07:33 > 0:07:37- Just textbook, James, textbook. - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Now, Stephanie, you are going to go first.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- Welcome to the show, Stephanie. - Thank you.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44How do you and Pearl know each other?
0:07:44 > 0:07:48I do some voluntary work in a day centre and we met up
0:07:48 > 0:07:51and did a bit of a quiz together.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Did you triumph?
0:07:53 > 0:07:55- Uh...next question?- OK!
0:07:57 > 0:07:59What do you do when you're not volunteering, Stephanie?
0:07:59 > 0:08:01I clean the fire station.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05- Are they mucky in the fire station? - Oh, yeah!
0:08:05 > 0:08:08They're known for it, aren't they?
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- Absolutely.- Course they are
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Now, Stephanie, words ending "OIL."
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Embroil.
0:08:15 > 0:08:16Oh, very good.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Very good. Embroil. Let's see how many of our 100 people said embroil.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26It's right. 15 our low score at the moment, 83 our high.
0:08:29 > 0:08:317! Best score!
0:08:31 > 0:08:33APPLAUSE
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Best score so far, Stephanie, well done.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Well played, Stephanie.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40"To involve someone deeply in an argument," to embroil.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44- Did you hear the approval from the audience?- Yeah, they liked that.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46That's an audience that's just listened to
0:08:46 > 0:08:48"toil" and "soil", isn't it?
0:08:48 > 0:08:50LAUGHTER
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Thanks very much, Richard. Halfway through the round.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Let's take a look at those scores as they stand.
0:08:55 > 0:08:577 from Stephanie, the best score of that pass, putting Stephanie
0:08:57 > 0:09:00and Pearl in a very commanding position at this point.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Then up to 15, where we find Karim and Rory,
0:09:02 > 0:09:05and then up to 76, where we find Chris and James.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09- And up to 83, Hannah and Lee. - Toil.- Yeah, toil.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12- Who would have thought toil would beat soil?- I know!
0:09:12 > 0:09:14OK, we're going to come back down the line now.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Now then, Pearl, we are looking for words ending "OIL."
0:09:23 > 0:09:25And you're going to see if you can find
0:09:25 > 0:09:29the lowest-scoring one possible. Pearl, what are your hobbies?
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Flower arranging, mostly.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35I demonstrate occasionally as well.
0:09:35 > 0:09:40And now just watching the television because I'm old and decrepit.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- AUDIENCE: Aww! - Aw, Pearl.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Do you watch Pointless?
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Why do you think I applied and found someone to apply with me?
0:09:50 > 0:09:53- It would be a bit weird if it was random.- Well, I know, exactly.
0:09:55 > 0:09:59OK, Pearl, very best of luck. What's your "OIL" word?
0:09:59 > 0:10:05Well, I hope it's one word because I'm doing it all the time - parboil.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Parboil.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10- They're brilliant.- Mm.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13- If it's right.- Yeah, that's right, I'm sure that's right.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15If it's wrong, they've got 107.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19I've tried to visualise whether it had a hyphen in-between but I...
0:10:19 > 0:10:22No, I think that's fine. There's your red line.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25If you get below that red line, you're through to the next round.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28You want to be scoring 75 or less. Let's see if parboil is right
0:10:28 > 0:10:30and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33It's absolutely right.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36And you're very comfortably through, Pearl, very well done.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Oh, look at that - 5!
0:10:41 > 0:10:45Best score so far, Pearl. Takes your total up to 12. Very well done.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Well played, Pearl, it's a terrific answer.
0:10:48 > 0:10:5012 on that final podium, that's not bad going, is it?
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Really not bad at all.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55James, welcome back to Pointless.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Last time it was cricket in round two, wasn't it?
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Yes. I don't know anything about cricket. My fault
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Christopher didn't know the answer but as a dad bringing up his son
0:11:04 > 0:11:08in England, I should have taught him about cricket. So, there you go.
0:11:08 > 0:11:14James, a word ending in "OIL." You're on 76, courtesy of "soil."
0:11:14 > 0:11:18If you can score six or less, you'll avoid overtaking our high scorers,
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- Hannah and Lee there, on 83. - OK, I'm going to go for a word,
0:11:21 > 0:11:24I remember it going into the dictionary, I think probably
0:11:24 > 0:11:29around about the 1960s and it's a bit of a gamble but "hydrofoil."
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Hydrofoil.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33I think that might be enough to save your bacon. Let's see.
0:11:33 > 0:11:37There's your red line, it's quite low but if you get below that,
0:11:37 > 0:11:38you are through to the next round.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44It's right.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46I have a feeling this might go a long way down.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50It's got you through - 2!
0:11:54 > 0:11:582 for hydrofoil takes your total to 78. Well done, best score so far.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01That's a terrific answer. This round's getting better and better.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04It's a type of boat that sort of lifts itself out of the water
0:12:04 > 0:12:07- when it goes at high speed. - Thanks, Rich. Now, Lee.- Hello.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11You are the high scorers on 83. We need something magic.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14We basically need a minus score, is what I'm saying.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19- Welcome back. Now, you are a stalwart member of the WI.- Yes.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- As is Pearl.- Pearl? Yes, good.
0:12:22 > 0:12:27- Have you bonded over WI? Swapped some recipes?- Yeah.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Good stuff. Now, words ending "OIL", Lee, that's what we're after.
0:12:30 > 0:12:34- I think I will go with "subsoil." - Subsoil, says Lee.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37No red line for you cos you're the high scorers.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40But let's see how many of our 100 people said subsoil.
0:12:41 > 0:12:42It's right.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Look at that - 1, Lee!
0:12:51 > 0:12:54The best score of the round so far. Very well done indeed.
0:12:54 > 0:12:5784 your total.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59And it keeps getting better and better, Lee.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01A terrific answer, subsoil. That's oil for subs.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04LAUGHTER
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Rory, welcome to the show. What do you do?
0:13:07 > 0:13:10I work in the Science Museum in their records and archives.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13I've been to the archives department of the Science Museum
0:13:13 > 0:13:14when I did Who Do You Think You Are?
0:13:14 > 0:13:18You went to the posh side. I work in the... That's the showroom.
0:13:18 > 0:13:22- Yes, we had heating.- Yeah, you had heating and light, probably.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Windows, we call them windows.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29- So, where were you?- Basement. Basement stores, yeah.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32- And you actually did all the work?- I did all the work for your one, yeah.
0:13:32 > 0:13:33On Who Do You Think You Are?
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Well, I did a lot of the work on your one.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39And then the curator just swanned in and... He was very good.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42- Very charming chap, isn't he?- Yeah, we should have had you, though.
0:13:42 > 0:13:46We should have had you, Rory. All that work. Oh, dear.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49- You've been waiting to say that for years.- I have!
0:13:49 > 0:13:54- It was all me.- Yeah, it was fascinating. Now, anyway.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- There you are on 15. You have to score 68 or less.- OK.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Talk us through all your thoughts, if you like.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Well, what I was thinking here, I was thinking would "oil" do?
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Do you know what, Rory? Let me tell you how Pointless works...
0:14:08 > 0:14:10LAUGHTER
0:14:10 > 0:14:12- It ends in that, doesn't it? - Yeah, I know.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15Do you remember the bit at the beginning when I said "obscure."
0:14:15 > 0:14:18OK, OK, then. I'll go for "coil."
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Wow, Karim.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24That's sailing quite close to the wind.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28- I can't think of anything!- OK, fair enough. There is your red line.
0:14:28 > 0:14:33Get below that red line and you are through to the next round.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35How many of our 100 people said coil?
0:14:39 > 0:14:40Oh, 78!
0:14:40 > 0:14:4578, Rory. I'm afraid that takes your total up to 93.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51You know that thing about how the round was getting better and better?
0:14:51 > 0:14:54- I didn't see that coming, did you?- No.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Of course, anything that can coil can also uncoil,
0:14:56 > 0:14:59which would have scored you 3 points.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04But let's take a look at some of the pointless answers.
0:15:04 > 0:15:08Charbroil. So, if you didn't parboil, you decided to charbroil, it would
0:15:08 > 0:15:09have been a pointless answer.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Cinquefoil...there's a lot of those words which are
0:15:12 > 0:15:15to do with petals or shapes. Cinquefoil is also a plant.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18But there's lots... Well, you'll see.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Stephanie, you said embroil. If you said disembroil,
0:15:21 > 0:15:24would have been a pointless answer. I wouldn't have risked disembroil.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26But it was a great answer if you got it at home.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Jetfoil is a pointless answer.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31A hydrofoil scored you two, but a jetfoil was nothing.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35These are similar to cinquefoil.
0:15:35 > 0:15:40Sexfoil is a niche dress-making material.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43That would been a pointless answer.
0:15:43 > 0:15:47Coil was a very, very high scorer but supercoil was a pointless answer,
0:15:47 > 0:15:50- so very well done if you said that. - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52At the end of our first round,
0:15:52 > 0:15:54the pair that will be heading home with their high score of 93 -
0:15:54 > 0:15:57it's not that high - but I'm afraid it's too high.
0:15:57 > 0:16:01Rory and Karim, it's you, I'm sorry. We have to say goodbye to you.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03We'll see you again next time, that's the good news, when
0:16:03 > 0:16:07obviously you'll be stepping aside to allow Stephanie and Pearl to win.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Rory and Karim, thanks so much for playing. Great contestants.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:16:20 > 0:16:21And so three pairs remain.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Obviously we'll be saying goodbye to another pair
0:16:23 > 0:16:25at the end of this round.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28I don't think it's going to be you, Stephanie and Pearl.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31Fantastic play in that first round.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Stop putting the mockers on us.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36You were our lowest scorers by a country mile.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40James, well done there. Good bit of rescuing.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43- Chris, could do better, I'm going to say.- Yeah.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46- Lee and Hannah, that was a close escape.- I know.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50But anyway, here you are. Lovely to have you with us still.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for round two today is...
0:16:55 > 0:16:58Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:16:58 > 0:16:59who's going to go second.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07OK, and the question concerns...
0:17:13 > 0:17:16On each pass we're going to show you the names of six Top 40 hits
0:17:16 > 0:17:19that have the word crazy, stupid or love in them.
0:17:19 > 0:17:20You need to tell us the artist
0:17:20 > 0:17:24who had a hit with that song in the year shown.
0:17:24 > 0:17:25Very best of luck.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27There's going to be 12 in all to have a go at home, so good luck.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30OK, thank you. We are looking for the band or the artist
0:17:30 > 0:17:33who had a hit with these songs. And here's our first board of six.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Let's read those all one last time.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09Six crazy, stupid, love songs. Hannah, you are going to go first.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12How do you like them apples?
0:18:12 > 0:18:15I've got one. It's trying to work out whether she's on her own or not.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Love The Way You Lie...
0:18:20 > 0:18:22..is Rihanna.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27Yeah, Rihanna.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29OK, Hannah has said Rihanna.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32She's not entirely sure with that. But let's find out. Is it right?
0:18:32 > 0:18:34And if it is, how many people said Rihanna?
0:18:36 > 0:18:38- It's right.- Oh, my gosh!
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Very well done. 29.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45APPLAUSE
0:18:45 > 0:18:47It's all going perfectly.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Yeah, well done, Hannah.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52It was Eminem and Rihanna, a hit for both of them, I think.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56- That is a tough board, by the way. - That is a tough board.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58I imagine you know all six of those.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01Well, I do cos I've got the answers here.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03Now then, Chris.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Chris, what do you make of this?
0:19:05 > 0:19:08In 2005 I had a part-time job in a sports shop and they used to play
0:19:08 > 0:19:12this song on a loop, so I think I'm right in saying Crazy Chick
0:19:12 > 0:19:14was sung by Charlotte Church.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18Charlotte Church, Crazy Chick, says Chris. Let's see if that's right
0:19:18 > 0:19:20and if it is, let's see how many people said Charlotte Church.
0:19:22 > 0:19:23It's absolutely right.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Well, you've passed Hannah's score. 19.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36- 19 for Charlotte Church. - Yeah, well played, Chris.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40It was her biggest hit, number two in 2005.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Thanks very much indeed. Stephanie.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45The board is all yours. Do you fancy talking us through it?
0:19:45 > 0:19:47Well, I only know two of the others.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Bad going.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52Don't Be Stupid is by Shania Twain.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56And Love Me Do by The Beatles.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59I'm going to go for Shania Twain.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02OK, Shania Twain, says Stephanie, for Don't Be Stupid.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said Shania Twain.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11It is right. 29 is our highest score, 19 our low.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Look at that - 2! Very well done, Stephanie.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Once again the lowest score of the pass.
0:20:20 > 0:20:21Well played, Stephanie.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24She's got the word "stupid" and "love" in that, Shania Twain.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27That's good going. You're right about Love Me Do, of course.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29It's a big score but not as big as you'd think.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31It's The Beatles, of course.
0:20:35 > 0:20:36All Time Love?
0:20:36 > 0:20:40I can't think who it is. I know the song...
0:20:40 > 0:20:41Will Young.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45And right at the top there...
0:20:45 > 0:20:48I know some people at home will get this.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52- The Bay City Rollers. - It is, yeah.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55And that scores 1 point, so it's the best answer up there.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Thank you very much indeed. So, we're halfway through the round.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Let's take a look at those scores.
0:21:00 > 0:21:0212 the best score of that pass. Very well done, Stephanie.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Once again, Pearl and Stephanie, a commanding lead halfway
0:21:05 > 0:21:08through the round. Let's hope that can continue.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Then up to 19, where we find Chris and James.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13Then up to 29, where we find Hannah and Lee.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:19 > 0:21:22OK, we're going to put six more love songs on the board
0:21:22 > 0:21:24and here they come.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41I'll read those all one final time.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58We are looking for the artist who recorded each of these and, Pearl,
0:21:58 > 0:22:00you're going to try and find the one you think the fewest
0:22:00 > 0:22:03of our 100 people knew. How are we feeling about this board?
0:22:03 > 0:22:06- I'm about to sink without trace. - Oh, no!- Yes.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09I thought there might be a couple on there you'd think,
0:22:09 > 0:22:11- "Oh, yippee, I know that one."- No.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15The best thing I can do is go back to 1958
0:22:15 > 0:22:18and just choose somebody like Doris Day.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22OK, and that's what you're going to do. Doris Day for Crazy Dream.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24There's your red line.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27Get below that and you're through to the head-to-head.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31Fingers crossed. Let's see if Doris Day sang Crazy Dream.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34And if she did, let's see how many people said it.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38No, bad luck, Pearl.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40I'm sorry, that's an incorrect answer
0:22:40 > 0:22:43and that scores you 100 points.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46- Takes your total up to 112. I'm sorry.- My non-subject.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51Pearl, tough category, but you never know, with two podiums still to go.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Now then, James.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- Right.- James, how do you find this board?
0:22:56 > 0:22:59I don't like the ones with the 2000 in front of them
0:22:59 > 0:23:02but I'm not too bad with the other ones.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05The fourth one down was actually number one on the day
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Christopher was born, so I remember who that was.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11But the one I'm going to go for is I Love To Love
0:23:11 > 0:23:14and that was by Tina Charles.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Tina Charles, says James. Well,
0:23:17 > 0:23:20if you can score 92 or less with that, you're in the head-to-head.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22There's your red line. Get below that and through you go.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25Tina Charles, is that right, and if it is, how many people said it?
0:23:27 > 0:23:29It is right and you are through. Very well done.
0:23:34 > 0:23:365! That's a great answer.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Well played, James. Big disco fan, James.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46- You can tell, can't you? - King of the disco, yeah.
0:23:46 > 0:23:50- That was Tina Charles' only number one.- Thanks very much.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54Now, Lee, if you can score 82 or less, you're in the head-to-head.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Now, talk us through the board.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02Saving All My Love For You, I think is Whitney Houston.
0:24:04 > 0:24:10And I'm going to with Crazy Horses cos my other love during the '70s -
0:24:10 > 0:24:13apart from the Bay City Rollers - were The Osmonds.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15And I think that's by The Osmonds.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18The Osmonds, Crazy Horses. There's your red line.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21Get below that, you're in the head-to-head for a second time.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Crazy Horses, was that by The Osmonds and if it was,
0:24:23 > 0:24:25how many people remembered that?
0:24:27 > 0:24:29It's right and you're through. Very well done.
0:24:32 > 0:24:3432.
0:24:34 > 0:24:3661 your total there.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Well played, Lee, that was their first top ten hit.
0:24:40 > 0:24:45- Quite a weird song for a group like that to have recorded.- Yeah.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49- It is.- That's the '70s for you. - Yeah.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Now, I wonder how far you can go through the rest of the board.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53- Crazy In Love?- Beyonce.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00Stupid Girls was Pink.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02- Pink.- And that would have scored 14 points.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05- You know Pink watches? - Yeah, I gather she does.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08No, I mean, you know pink watches? I'm thinking of buying one.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10LAUGHTER
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Next show, when Karim's back, I think I'm going to get one off him.
0:25:15 > 0:25:19Saving All My Love For You, James, was Whitney Houston, of course.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Absolutely right, 18 points.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23And Crazy Dream,
0:25:23 > 0:25:25it's the best answer on the board.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Better known as an actor, actually, Jim Dale.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30- Wow!- Yep, would have scored you 1 point.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Jim Dale, does that ring a bell at all, Pearl?
0:25:33 > 0:25:35I don't even recognise any of the titles
0:25:35 > 0:25:37except Saving All My Love For You,
0:25:37 > 0:25:40and I couldn't remember who that was.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42Would you have got Love Me Do, Pearl?
0:25:42 > 0:25:44- No.- Oh, OK. I don't feel so bad then.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47I wouldn't have got anything in about the last 30 years.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Well, if we've done pop music today,
0:25:49 > 0:25:52we almost certainly won't do it next time, that's the good news.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54It'll be Premiership football next time.
0:25:54 > 0:25:55LAUGHTER
0:25:55 > 0:25:58- That's usually how it works. - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01So at the end of our second round, I'm afraid the pair heading home
0:26:01 > 0:26:03with their high score of 112, it's Stephanie and Pearl,
0:26:03 > 0:26:05I'm so sorry we have to send you away.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07But the great news is you're back next time,
0:26:07 > 0:26:09we'll look forward to that very much indeed.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11Stephanie and Pearl, lovely people.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13APPLAUSE
0:26:14 > 0:26:18But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20APPLAUSE
0:26:21 > 0:26:24Congratulations, James and Chris, Lee and Hannah,
0:26:24 > 0:26:26you're now one step closer to the final
0:26:26 > 0:26:30and a chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands at £1,000.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32We have to decide who's going to play for that money,
0:26:32 > 0:26:35and to do that, you are now going to go head-to-head.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37But from here on in, you are allowed to confer.
0:26:37 > 0:26:41The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44Best of luck to both pairs, let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46APPLAUSE
0:26:49 > 0:26:52OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:26:56 > 0:26:58North and South American flags, Richard.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Going to show you five flags now of
0:27:00 > 0:27:03countries on the continents of North or South America.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Can you give us the most obscure country, please? Best of luck.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Thanks very much indeed.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Let's reveal our five flags, and here they are, we have got...
0:27:28 > 0:27:30There we are. Five flags from the Americas.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33James and Chris, you've played best throughout the show so far,
0:27:33 > 0:27:34so you get to go first.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39THEY CONFER QUIETLY
0:27:40 > 0:27:42I think C is Ecuador...
0:27:44 > 0:27:46What about D or E? D'you know them?
0:27:46 > 0:27:48I would be guessing if I went for them.
0:27:48 > 0:27:53We think we recognise C as being Ecuador.
0:27:53 > 0:27:57C, Ecuador, you're going to say. C, Ecuador.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01Now, then, Lee and Hannah, do you want to talk us through those flags?
0:28:04 > 0:28:06- Erm...- We think B is Argentina.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13D or E we think is Colombia, but we're not certain which one.
0:28:13 > 0:28:14Yeah, they have similar flags,
0:28:14 > 0:28:16I can't remember which way round it is.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19So, although we know it's right,
0:28:19 > 0:28:23- we're going to go B, Argentina. - B, Argentina.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25BOTH: Hope it's right!
0:28:25 > 0:28:28OK, B, Argentina. James and Chris have said C, Ecuador.
0:28:28 > 0:28:29Let's see if that's right,
0:28:29 > 0:28:33and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Ecuador.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38Oh, not Ecuador, as it turns out,
0:28:38 > 0:28:40which means, Lee and Hannah,
0:28:40 > 0:28:43all you have to be is correct with B, Argentina.
0:28:43 > 0:28:45Let's find out if that is correct.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50It is correct, you win the point, very well done.
0:28:51 > 0:28:5256 people said it.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54APPLAUSE
0:28:56 > 0:28:59Well done, Lee and Hannah, after one question you are up 1-0.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02Playing it safe paid off there, Lee and Hannah.
0:29:02 > 0:29:04If you'd had to give us D or E for Colombia,
0:29:04 > 0:29:06- which would you have gone for?- D.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09- Well, E is Colombia.- That was lucky.
0:29:09 > 0:29:13And it would have scored you 13 points.
0:29:13 > 0:29:15And I'll tell you what D is.
0:29:15 > 0:29:18- It's Ecuador.- Oh!
0:29:18 > 0:29:20And that would have scored you 7 points.
0:29:21 > 0:29:25Now, C, it's not Ecuador, James, it's Mexico.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29And that would have scored you 33 points.
0:29:29 > 0:29:33I think I heard during deliberations, you had an idea for A.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36- I thought it was Suriname. - And it was Suriname as well.
0:29:36 > 0:29:39And it's the best answer up there, would have scored you 3 points.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42Would have been a terrific answer.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45Thanks very much indeed. Now, here comes your second question.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47Lee and Hannah, you get to answer this one first,
0:29:47 > 0:29:49and if you win it, you go straight through to the final,
0:29:49 > 0:29:52so a little bit of pressure on you, James and Chris, at this point.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54Best of luck, it concerns...
0:29:56 > 0:29:58The Fast Show, Richard.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00Going to give you five clues now to facts about The Fast Show.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03Just need you to give us the most obscure answer, please.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06Thanks very much, let's reveal our five clues, and here they come.
0:30:06 > 0:30:07We have got...
0:30:26 > 0:30:29There we are, five clues to facts about The Fast Show.
0:30:29 > 0:30:30I'll read them all one last time.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47There we are. Five clues to facts about The Fast Show.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49Lee and Hannah, you will go first.
0:30:50 > 0:30:54- OK, well, this is a toughie cos we've never watched the show.- No.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59Erm, we're going to go with the actress who wrote the book
0:30:59 > 0:31:03Does My Bum Look Big In This? And I think it's Arabella Weir.
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Arabella Weir, say Lee and Hannah.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08Now, James and Chris.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11Talk us through the rest of the board if you can.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15OK, unfortunately, I was never a huge Fast Show fan. Erm...
0:31:15 > 0:31:16I'm trying to remember...
0:31:16 > 0:31:19Seriously, you must go back and revisit The Fast Show.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22- It'll inspire your puppet shows. - I saw kind of bits of it.
0:31:22 > 0:31:26I think Simon Day might have played a character called Ted?
0:31:26 > 0:31:29I seem to remember someone done up in tweed outside.
0:31:29 > 0:31:32I don't know the top two at all,
0:31:32 > 0:31:35so we're going to go for the year first broadcast.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37I'm toying between '96 and '97.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41I'm just going to say 1997.
0:31:41 > 0:31:441997, say James and Chris. So we have Arabella Weir and 1997.
0:31:44 > 0:31:46Lee and Hannah said Arabella Weir,
0:31:46 > 0:31:48the authoress of Does My Bum Look Big In This?
0:31:48 > 0:31:51Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:31:59 > 0:32:01Very well done indeed, a correct answer, down to 11.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04APPLAUSE
0:32:05 > 0:32:07James and Chris have said 1997 was
0:32:07 > 0:32:10the year the programme was first broadcast.
0:32:10 > 0:32:14Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said 1997 if it is.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17Oh, no, bad luck.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20An incorrect answer, which means, Lee and Hannah,
0:32:20 > 0:32:24you are through to the final, 2-0. Very well done indeed.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26Well played, Lee and Hannah, Arabella Weir's a terrific answer.
0:32:26 > 0:32:29The year it was first broadcast would have beaten you,
0:32:29 > 0:32:33- and if you weren't going to say '97 what were you going to say?- '96.
0:32:33 > 0:32:36- Yeah.- Oh, no. Just rub it in.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38It was...it was 1994.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41LAUGHTER
0:32:41 > 0:32:45- Would have scored 10 points. That's a relief, isn't it?- Massively.
0:32:45 > 0:32:46Can go to bed happy tonight now.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49The eight-letter word used repeatedly by...
0:32:49 > 0:32:52- it was Caroline Aherne, wasn't it? - Scorchio!- Scorchio, absolutely.
0:32:52 > 0:32:55That would have scored you, it was the biggest scorer up there...
0:32:57 > 0:33:0029 points. The Hollywood actor looking for the suit?
0:33:00 > 0:33:01It was someone like Johnny Depp.
0:33:01 > 0:33:04It was Johnny Depp, yeah, appeared in the last ever episode.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06That would have scored you 17.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09And the name of Simon Day's eco-warrior character?
0:33:09 > 0:33:11Er, I remember the character.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14Dave Angel was the answer to that, that's the best answer there,
0:33:14 > 0:33:15would have scored you 7 points.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18Well done to anyone who went all the way through the board.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20I'm always amazed when people can get years.
0:33:20 > 0:33:23- Yeah.- When things were first or last broadcast. I can't do it.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25I think people say, "Oh, it first came out when I started school,"
0:33:25 > 0:33:28- or something. That's when you can do it, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:33:28 > 0:33:29Anyway, thank you, Richard.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round is
0:33:32 > 0:33:33James and Chris, I'm sorry to say.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36And you've, well, you've had some lucky escapes.
0:33:36 > 0:33:40James, you've done some heavy lifting, I think it's fair to say.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42We won't bring up soil again. Oh, I just have. I'm sorry.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45But it's been great having you on both shows.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47Thank you so much for playing, James and Chris.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49APPLAUSE
0:33:49 > 0:33:53But for Lee and Hannah, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:33:56 > 0:34:00Congratulations, Lee and Hannah, you've fought off the competition
0:34:00 > 0:34:04and won our coveted Pointless trophy, so very well done indeed.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,
0:34:12 > 0:34:15and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,000.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17There it is.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20Now, Hannah, cast your mind back to Round One, when you said "toil"
0:34:20 > 0:34:23and you scored something massive. 83, I think you got.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25- 83, yeah.- Did you ever think you'd be here in the final?
0:34:25 > 0:34:28No, I didn't think we'd make it through the first round,
0:34:28 > 0:34:30let alone to the final.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33- But then, Round Two, some great answers there.- Oh, yeah.
0:34:33 > 0:34:37Yeah, Rihanna, good score. And then 2-0 in the head-to-head.
0:34:37 > 0:34:39- Superb.- Yeah.- Good stuff.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42Well, as always, you kick off this round by choosing a category
0:34:42 > 0:34:43and here are your options.
0:34:43 > 0:34:44You can choose from...
0:34:54 > 0:34:56HANNAH LAUGHS
0:34:56 > 0:34:59- Well...- They're not the best categories I've ever seen.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01Wales?! Come on!
0:35:01 > 0:35:04I've only been there a couple of times when I was younger.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09- Sporting Awards, I'd say, is probably your best bet.- Or Sci-Fi?
0:35:11 > 0:35:13- It could be Doctor Who. - Yeah, but if it's books...
0:35:13 > 0:35:15What would you prefer?
0:35:17 > 0:35:22- Let's go Sci-Fi, it might be Star Wars.- Oh, OK. Yeah?- It's up to you.
0:35:22 > 0:35:25- OK, Science Fiction then.- You're going to go for Science Fiction.
0:35:25 > 0:35:29- Yeah, we're going to risk it.- OK. Richard, Science Fiction it is.
0:35:29 > 0:35:33Yeah, we're going to give you three options now to choose between.
0:35:33 > 0:35:37Can you give us any novel written by Ray Bradbury?
0:35:37 > 0:35:40Not looking for any short stories or works of nonfiction.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Any Ray Bradbury novel.
0:35:42 > 0:35:43Any character who appeared in
0:35:43 > 0:35:4730 or more episodes of the original Star Trek.
0:35:47 > 0:35:52Or we're looking for any tracks on the original 1978 vinyl release of
0:35:52 > 0:35:55Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds album.
0:35:55 > 0:35:56So, any Ray Bradbury novel,
0:35:56 > 0:35:59any Star Trek character who's appeared in 30 or more episodes,
0:35:59 > 0:36:03or any of the songs on the original release of War of the Worlds.
0:36:03 > 0:36:04Very best of luck.
0:36:04 > 0:36:08Thanks very much indeed. As always, you've got up to one minute
0:36:08 > 0:36:11to come up with three answers, and all you need to win that jackpot
0:36:11 > 0:36:13is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15The answers you give can come from any of these categories.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18They can all come from the same one, if you like, or one from each,
0:36:18 > 0:36:21two from one, one from another, it's up to you. Are you ready?
0:36:21 > 0:36:24- Yeah.- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27There they are, your time starts now.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29- OK, not the top one.- No.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32Erm, Star Trek characters, I only know the crew.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34Lt Uhura, that's about it, really.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37- Yeah, cos I didn't really watch it, it's not my thing.- No.
0:36:37 > 0:36:41- War of the Worlds songs, come on. - I've got the CD at home.- Nothing?
0:36:41 > 0:36:43Well, it's going to be really high,
0:36:43 > 0:36:44it's not going to be pointless
0:36:44 > 0:36:48cos it's the only song I can remember, so...
0:36:48 > 0:36:49OK, well, that's one answer.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54- We'll do Forever Autumn from the bottom one.- OK.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56- Cos Gary Barlow's just redone it. - OK, right, yeah.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58- So, Forever Autumn...- Yeah.
0:36:58 > 0:36:59Lt...
0:36:59 > 0:37:04- Lt Uhura.- You say that, cos I really can't. Erm...
0:37:04 > 0:37:05And Khan, the...
0:37:05 > 0:37:08Benedict Cumberbatch one from the movie, I swear he's in there.
0:37:08 > 0:37:11- Is he in the original one? - I'm sure he is,
0:37:11 > 0:37:13cos they talk about it a lot, on Khan... Big Bang Theory!
0:37:13 > 0:37:16OK, that's your thought pattern, Big Bang Theory.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18- Pretty much!- 10 seconds left.
0:37:18 > 0:37:22- OK.- Yeah?- Yeah. - Lt Uhura, Khan and the song.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24- Forever Autumn. - Right, yeah?- Yeah.- OK.
0:37:24 > 0:37:27OK, you have your three answers. Your time is now up.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29What are the three answers you're giving me?
0:37:29 > 0:37:33OK, from Star Trek characters, Khan.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36- Khan.- And Lt Uhura.
0:37:36 > 0:37:37Lt Uhura.
0:37:37 > 0:37:38I think that's how you say it, yeah.
0:37:38 > 0:37:43And War of the Worlds songs, I think Forever Autumn's on there.
0:37:43 > 0:37:44Forever Autumn. OK, of those three,
0:37:44 > 0:37:47which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:37:47 > 0:37:50- Forever Autumn.- OK, so, Forever Autumn we put last.
0:37:50 > 0:37:53- Which shall we put first?- Lt Uhura.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56Lt Uhura, OK, we'll put Lt Uhura first.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Let's pop those answers up on the board in that order,
0:37:58 > 0:38:01and here they are. We have got...
0:38:05 > 0:38:06Well, very best of luck.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08- They look quite good on the board now, don't they?- Yeah.
0:38:08 > 0:38:11- They look great. - Three really good answers.
0:38:11 > 0:38:12Much better than I can come up with.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15Let's just imagine one of those is a pointless answer,
0:38:15 > 0:38:17it's entirely possible, what would you do with your...
0:38:17 > 0:38:20It's not going to be the biggest windfall ever,
0:38:20 > 0:38:22but 1,000 quid, still quite nice.
0:38:22 > 0:38:24What would you do with that?
0:38:24 > 0:38:27Erm, I promised my boyfriend I'd get him tickets to go
0:38:27 > 0:38:29and see the rugby if we did win.
0:38:29 > 0:38:33So if it was a bit bigger, I'd try and go somewhere extravagant
0:38:33 > 0:38:34and abroad or something,
0:38:34 > 0:38:38but I'm sure we'll be happy with Twickenham tickets.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41There you are, exactly, that's a nice treat. Lee, how about you?
0:38:41 > 0:38:46I would probably spend it on a meal for everybody,
0:38:46 > 0:38:49- Hannah, my other children. - Oh, thank you!- You, Richard...
0:38:49 > 0:38:53- I am quite hungry.- It's going to be a lot, cos everybody,
0:38:53 > 0:38:55that's going to be expensive.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57Everybody in my close circle of friends.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59Oh, that's kind. So still us!
0:38:59 > 0:39:02Fabulous. Well, best of luck.
0:39:02 > 0:39:07Now, we are looking at Uhura. These are original Star Trek characters.
0:39:07 > 0:39:10Uhura you thought was probably your least likely to be pointless.
0:39:10 > 0:39:12But only one of them has to be pointless
0:39:12 > 0:39:15for you to win that jackpot. Let's find out, though, for £1,000,
0:39:15 > 0:39:17how many people said Uhura was an original Star Trek character?
0:39:17 > 0:39:19Is it pointless?
0:39:21 > 0:39:23- It's right.- It's right. - That's the main thing.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28Down it goes, through the 50s, through the 40s,
0:39:28 > 0:39:30if this goes all the way down to 0 you leave with £1,000.
0:39:30 > 0:39:32Well, 33.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34APPLAUSE
0:39:35 > 0:39:38So, unfortunately not a pointless answer,
0:39:38 > 0:39:41but you put that first for a reason, to get that one out of the way.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44Your next answer, Khan, it's a bit either/or, this one.
0:39:44 > 0:39:45This is a bit of a punt.
0:39:45 > 0:39:48This is the Benedict Cumberbatch character in the film,
0:39:48 > 0:39:51- but you think it's an original character.- I'm sure...maybe.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55- You're sure.- I'm sure, maybe.- I'm sure-ish.- OK, well, let's find out.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58Obviously it has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot,
0:39:58 > 0:40:00so for £1,000, let's find out if
0:40:00 > 0:40:03Khan is one of the original characters of Star Trek.
0:40:05 > 0:40:09- Oh, there's your answer. - Yeah, yeah.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11OK, also not a pointless answer,
0:40:11 > 0:40:15which means you only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:40:15 > 0:40:18It is all riding on Forever Autumn,
0:40:18 > 0:40:21and you're hoping that is from the original War of the Worlds album.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24Let's find out if it is. How many people said Forever Autumn?
0:40:27 > 0:40:28It's right.
0:40:29 > 0:40:33Your first answer, Uhura, took us down to 33.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36Your second answer, Khan, turned out to be incorrect.
0:40:36 > 0:40:37This last answer going down...
0:40:37 > 0:40:3813!
0:40:38 > 0:40:41APPLAUSE
0:40:41 > 0:40:4213.
0:40:43 > 0:40:49Well, three good answers, well, two good answers, let's say.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51Two good answers there, and do you know what?
0:40:51 > 0:40:52I know what your tactics were.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55You're just thinking of Pearl, so I say, on her behalf,
0:40:55 > 0:40:56thank you so much.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59That was really big of you, and you go home with that Pointless trophy,
0:40:59 > 0:41:02so well done, you've done phenomenally well.
0:41:02 > 0:41:03It's been great having you on the show.
0:41:03 > 0:41:07I'm afraid you didn't win the jackpot. That will roll over onto the next show,
0:41:07 > 0:41:11- but you do leave with a Pointless trophy.- Pearl's money, not jackpot.
0:41:11 > 0:41:14- Pearl's money.- Pearl's money - nicely corrected. Richard.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17Yes, you've been great for two shows, and it's a good punt, Khan.
0:41:17 > 0:41:21He was in one episode in the original series, played by Ricardo Montalban.
0:41:21 > 0:41:24Let's look at all the pointless answers in the different categories.
0:41:24 > 0:41:27Ray Bradbury novels first. Any fans will get some of these.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29There are five pointless Ray Bradbury novels.
0:41:29 > 0:41:31A Graveyard For Lunatics,
0:41:31 > 0:41:32Death Is A Lonely Business...
0:41:32 > 0:41:36He has good titles, doesn't he, Ray Bradbury? You've got to say.
0:41:36 > 0:41:37From The Dust Returned,
0:41:37 > 0:41:39Green Shadows, White Whale.
0:41:39 > 0:41:41You also could have had Let's All Kill Constance.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43Fahrenheit 451 was the biggest scorer there.
0:41:43 > 0:41:46The Star Trek characters, there's only one pointless answer.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49I know some people, Star Trek fans really know their stuff,
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Lt Leslie was a pointless answer.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54You would have got a point for Nurse Chapel as well, a terrific answer.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56I'll go through all the Star Trek characters, actually,
0:41:56 > 0:41:58cos I know there's big Star Trek fans at home.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01Mr Spock was the biggest scorer, surprisingly, 67,
0:42:01 > 0:42:02beat Captain Kirk, who got 59.
0:42:02 > 0:42:06Dr McCoy got the same as Uhura, got 33 points.
0:42:06 > 0:42:10And you would have got 29 for Scotty, 17 for Chekov
0:42:10 > 0:42:12and poor old Sulu with just 12.
0:42:12 > 0:42:16But Nurse Chapel with 1 and Lt Leslie there was the pointless answer.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19And War of the Worlds tracks.
0:42:19 > 0:42:21Brave New World, a David Essex track,
0:42:21 > 0:42:22would have been a pointless answer.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25All these other three had Richard Burton on them as well,
0:42:25 > 0:42:28Dead London, Horsell Common and the Heat Ray, and The Spirit of Man.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31All of those are pointless answers. Also could have had Epilogue or
0:42:31 > 0:42:33The Artilleryman and the Fighting Machine.
0:42:33 > 0:42:34All of those pointless answers.
0:42:34 > 0:42:37Very well played across two shows, sorry about the jackpot.
0:42:37 > 0:42:39- Hope you've enjoyed yourself. - Thanks.- Pearl's money.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Thanks very much, Richard.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43Unfortunately we have to say goodbye to you, Lee and Hannah,
0:42:43 > 0:42:45but it's been great having you on the show.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47Thank you both for playing so well, Lee and Hannah.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50APPLAUSE
0:42:50 > 0:42:52Lee and Hannah 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.
0:42:56 > 0:42:58There it is.
0:42:58 > 0:42:59APPLAUSE
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Join us next time to see if someone can win it.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08APPLAUSE
