0:00:20 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed.

0:00:24 > 0:00:27Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless -

0:00:27 > 0:00:29the quiz show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners.

0:00:29 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36And couple number one...

0:00:36 > 0:00:38Hi there, my name's Hannah, this is my boyfriend Andy

0:00:38 > 0:00:41and we both live in small villages in Sussex.

0:00:41 > 0:00:42Couple number two...

0:00:42 > 0:00:46Hi, I'm Simon. This is my friend and work colleague Steve.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48Steve's from Malvern and I'm from Bicester.

0:00:48 > 0:00:49Couple number three...

0:00:49 > 0:00:52I'm Heather and this is my friend Nicki and we're from Birmingham.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55And finally, couple number four...

0:00:55 > 0:00:59I'm James, this is Tom and we're old school friends from Salisbury.

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

0:01:01 > 0:01:02APPLAUSE

0:01:04 > 0:01:07Thanks all of you, we'll find out more about you throughout the show.

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

0:01:10 > 0:01:14He's a man so clever he convinced HMRC that THEY owed HIM taxes.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16Here's my Pointless friend. It's Richard.

0:01:16 > 0:01:17Hiya. Hi, everyone.

0:01:19 > 0:01:20Hiya.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23Hello to you. Hello, good afternoon.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25How are you? I'm-I'm well.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27Excellent. We've got some familiar faces.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29Three returning pairs, which is always quite nice.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32James and Tom have come back. James is a pilot, isn't he?

0:01:32 > 0:01:34That's right. That's like an actual job, isn't it?

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Yeah. That is a job. That's a proper job. Yeah.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39But we've also got Andy and Hannah back.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43They got knocked out in the first round last time. And they went to my old school.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Warden Park. Warden Park School in Sussex,

0:01:45 > 0:01:48which, as you know, has a reputation for fierce intellect.

0:01:48 > 0:01:51LAUGHTER Yeah. I think they deliberately went out

0:01:51 > 0:01:54because another sign of an ex-Warden Park pupil is class,

0:01:54 > 0:01:56and respect for others and, you know, humility.

0:01:56 > 0:02:01But this time, as it's their last chance, I know for a fact that they're going to win.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04But Round One today they're going to have to show their mettle, I'm afraid.

0:02:04 > 0:02:09Round One's one of those ones where, let's say, it's high culture.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12Sometimes high culture rounds are quite interesting. Certainly are.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15For all the wrong reasons. Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18All our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Our contestants here need to find the obscure answers

0:02:20 > 0:02:21those 100 people didn't get.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25Of course, everyone's trying to find a pointless answer - one that none of our 100 people gave,

0:02:25 > 0:02:29and each time that happens we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32Now, John and Anne didn't win the jackpot last time so we add

0:02:32 > 0:02:36another ?1,000 to that, so today's jackpot starts off at ?6,000.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:02:39 > 0:02:42Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49OK, in this first round I want an answer from each of you,

0:02:49 > 0:02:51but there has to be no conferring.

0:02:51 > 0:02:55Whichever pair has the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated,

0:02:55 > 0:02:57so do what you can to make sure that's not you.

0:02:57 > 0:03:01OK, our first category today is...

0:03:01 > 0:03:03CONTESTANTS LAUGH There we are, Culture.

0:03:03 > 0:03:04Can you all decide in your pairs

0:03:04 > 0:03:07who's going to go first and who's going to go second.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15And the question concerns...

0:03:16 > 0:03:18(Whoah!)

0:03:18 > 0:03:22..Operas, Richard. Yes, on each pass we're going to give you the English names of seven

0:03:22 > 0:03:25operas or operettas, but we've missed a word out from each one.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27Can you tell us that word, please.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30There's going to be 14 titles to complete in all. Good luck.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33Thanks very much, Richard. So we're looking for the missing word

0:03:33 > 0:03:35from the English translations of these opera titles.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38And here's our first board of seven.

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

0:04:16 > 0:04:17Hannah, welcome back.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20Hi. Hi!

0:04:20 > 0:04:21What happened last time?

0:04:21 > 0:04:25Erm...robbed. Blindly robbed.

0:04:25 > 0:04:30No, it was just, it was a game of luck and we didn't have any.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32No, you had two really good answers.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35I was very surprised by the high scores. Yeah.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38Now, Hannah, what are you going to go for on this board? Is opera good?

0:04:38 > 0:04:41Yes, actually. I know four of them.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44I think I'm going to go for Madame Butterfly.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47Madame Butterfly. Madame Butterfly, says Hannah.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49Let's see if it's right, and if it is,

0:04:49 > 0:04:52how many of our 100 people said Madame Butterfly.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Oh! Oh, yay, look at that!

0:04:56 > 0:04:5893 for Madame Butterfly.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03Hannah...come on!

0:05:03 > 0:05:05It was the wrong choice, obviously.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07The right answer, correct answer though. Great answer.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10You've got to hand it to her education that it's a correct answer. Yep!

0:05:10 > 0:05:12LAUGHTER

0:05:12 > 0:05:14Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:05:14 > 0:05:15Now, Steve, welcome to the show.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17Great to have you here. What do you do, Steve?

0:05:17 > 0:05:20I'm a web developer. I make things on the internet. Good stuff.

0:05:20 > 0:05:24And when you're not doing that, what do you like to get up to, Steve?

0:05:24 > 0:05:27Well, we've got a small baby at home so most of my spare time is spent

0:05:27 > 0:05:30sleeping or changing nappies and that kind of thing,

0:05:30 > 0:05:32but when I can, we live somewhere

0:05:32 > 0:05:35wonderful and hilly so we get up and out walking, that kid of thing.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37Lovely. Yeah. Outside is good.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39Now then, Steve, what about opera?

0:05:39 > 0:05:44Mixed. Of what's left, three of them I feel OK about.

0:05:44 > 0:05:50I think I'm going to go with Tristan and Isolde.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Tristan and Isolde, says Steve. Tristan and Isolde.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:05:56 > 0:05:57Absolutely right.

0:06:01 > 0:06:0243.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04APPLAUSE

0:06:04 > 0:06:0743 for Tristan and Isolde.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09Yeah, an opera in three parts, Tristan and Isolde.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12The original draft was Tristan and his older brother.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14LAUGHTER She changed the plot.

0:06:17 > 0:06:18Thank you very much indeed!

0:06:18 > 0:06:22Heather, welcome back. What happened with you last time?

0:06:22 > 0:06:24I was cursed by Harry Potter.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27Yes, Harry Potter. Yes, that was a tough round.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29Heather, remind us what you do.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32I'm an accountant for a construction company.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34And in your spare time what do you like to do?

0:06:34 > 0:06:38In my spare time we like to go to a lot of parties,

0:06:38 > 0:06:39a lot of fancy dress parties.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43Ah, yes, that's right, fancy dress parties.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46Does opera come into your hobby list at all?

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Not especially, not especially.

0:06:49 > 0:06:53I think there's one that I definitely know.

0:06:53 > 0:06:57I'm going to go for William Tell by Rossini.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59William Tell, says Heather. Let's see if that's right.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01Let's see how many of our 100 people said William Tell.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06It's right.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10APPLAUSE

0:07:10 > 0:07:1370 for William Tell. Yeah, William Tell Overture.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16Of course, one of the most famous pieces of classical music.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18It's the Lone Ranger music.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Thanks very much indeed. Now, Tom.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Tom, welcome back to the show. What happened with you last time?

0:07:23 > 0:07:25Girls Aloud did it for us.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27You were in the head-to-head. Yeah.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30Erm, anyway, anyway. Tom, remind us what you do.

0:07:30 > 0:07:31I work in financial services.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34But you said last time, I seem to remember,

0:07:34 > 0:07:37that your interests were highbrow.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Yeah, I might take that back now. Not this highbrow.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41THEY LAUGH

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Not quite this highbrow. You are the last person to have this board.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46You can fill in all those blanks there.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48I would love to...

0:07:48 > 0:07:50but I can only fill in the bottom one,

0:07:50 > 0:07:52which I think is the most obvious. Right.

0:07:52 > 0:07:54I'm going to go for The Pirates Of Penzance.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57The Pirates Of Penzance, Tom. The Pirates Of Penzance.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said The Pirates Of Penzance.

0:08:05 > 0:08:06Oh, that's high.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09APPLAUSE

0:08:11 > 0:08:15Well, what a high-scoring round that's been. No wrong answers but a high scorer.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18Now, the rest of these. You'll probably know some of these.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21I can do, I think I know all of those. OK. Duke Bluebeard's...

0:08:21 > 0:08:25Castle. Is correct. Would've scored you 7.

0:08:25 > 0:08:29Lady... This is the one I'm less sure of. I think it's Lady Macbeth.

0:08:29 > 0:08:33You are correct. It is Lady Macbeth. Shostakovich, 5 points.

0:08:33 > 0:08:34And Dido And Aeneas. Yes.

0:08:34 > 0:08:37Which is slightly more, 17 points, so the best answer is Macbeth.

0:08:37 > 0:08:38Well done if you said that.

0:08:38 > 0:08:42Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round, let's look at those scores.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45The lowest score of that pass was yours, Steve.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47Very well done, 43, good score.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Then we travel up to 70

0:08:49 > 0:08:51where we find Heather and Nicki,

0:08:51 > 0:08:53up to 87 where we find Tom and James,

0:08:53 > 0:08:55and then 93, Hannah and Andy.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57Well, actually, thank goodness for The Pirates Of Penzance.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00They have joined you. They're just a step below you.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02So you have company up there.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04Sometimes people are quite far ahead

0:09:04 > 0:09:06but a little bit less pressure on Andy here.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09How are you on opera? Oh...rubbish.

0:09:09 > 0:09:10LAUGHTER

0:09:10 > 0:09:13Well, listen, very best of luck. We'll come back down the line now.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16Can the second players please take their places at the podium.

0:09:17 > 0:09:21OK, let's put seven more operas on the board and here they are.

0:09:21 > 0:09:22We have got...

0:09:38 > 0:09:39I'll read those one last time.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55Now, remember we are looking for the missing words

0:09:55 > 0:09:57from these operas' names.

0:09:57 > 0:10:01James you're going to try and find the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03So, James, when you're piloting and you're doing,

0:10:03 > 0:10:07let's say you're doing your little thing before you take off.

0:10:07 > 0:10:11Cos that's a fairly standard voice, what's the pitch there?

0:10:11 > 0:10:13Fairly low, like baritone.

0:10:13 > 0:10:17And you sort of affect, even if it's all a little bit sweaty

0:10:17 > 0:10:19and everyone's a bit panicky up back.

0:10:19 > 0:10:23I don't know why you'd be panicky necessarily before you've taken off, but still.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25You affect a sort of nonchalance.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27That's right.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29Does anyone actually teach you how to do that?

0:10:29 > 0:10:33That's the majority of the training, of the two years.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34LAUGHTER

0:10:34 > 0:10:37Good stuff. Now, James, you're the first person to have this board,

0:10:37 > 0:10:40so what is the complete name for each of these operas?

0:10:40 > 0:10:44OK. I'm going to go for Gershwin and I'm going to say Porgy and Bess.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46Porgy and Bess, says James. Porgy and Bess.

0:10:46 > 0:10:50Well, let's see how many of our 100 people said Porgy and Bess.

0:10:50 > 0:10:51Here is your red line, quite low.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56It's right.

0:10:57 > 0:10:58APPLAUSE

0:10:59 > 0:11:0278 takes your total up to 165.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04They're good our 100, aren't they?

0:11:04 > 0:11:07Yeah, they've done very well. Erm, yeah, Porgy and Bess, it's an opera,

0:11:07 > 0:11:10but it was on Broadway as well and they avoided ever calling it

0:11:10 > 0:11:13an opera just so more people would go and see it.

0:11:13 > 0:11:14But it's an opera.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, Nicki.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20Hello. Nicki, welcome back. What do you do?

0:11:20 > 0:11:22I'm a PA at Birmingham University.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24And in your spare time what do you do?

0:11:24 > 0:11:27Me and Heather generally dress up quite a lot.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29A lot of dressing up. Yeah.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32I mean, really, how often do you dress up?

0:11:32 > 0:11:33As often as possible.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35The likes of weekly?

0:11:35 > 0:11:36I actually do it more than Heather

0:11:36 > 0:11:40cos I work for a murder mystery company in my spare time as well.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43Now, that's fun! Have you ever been on a murder mystery evening where

0:11:43 > 0:11:46someone's just refused to do what the script told them to do? Yeah.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49There were two occasions I had to murder my husband.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52LAUGHTER I'm assuming he was part of the murder mystery weekend.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Yeah. Good. Phew. LAUGHTER

0:11:54 > 0:11:58Now then, Nicki, what are you going to go for in this opera board?

0:11:58 > 0:12:01You are, by the way, on 70 and the highest scorers are on 165.

0:12:01 > 0:12:0494 or less sees you through.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06Oh, OK. You're in a good position.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09Well, there's two I definitely know and one I maybe know.

0:12:09 > 0:12:13And I don't know whether I'm willing to risk the maybe.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16Hmm.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19I think I'll go for Hansel And Gretel.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22Hansel And Gretel, says Nicki. Hansel And Gretel.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25There's your red line. Get below that, you're in the next round.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28Let's see how many of our 100 people said Hansel And Gretel.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33It's right and you are through! JUST though. Look at that, 90.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36APPLAUSE

0:12:36 > 0:12:40Skin of your teeth, Nicki. 160 your total but you are through.

0:12:40 > 0:12:45Yeah, very well played. Goodness me, some high scorers, aren't there?

0:12:45 > 0:12:48Mmm. Some big scores but still no incorrect answers.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Simon, before you say anything, I can tell you, you are through to Round Two.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55The highest scorers are on 165, you're on 43.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57Good answering from Steve in the first pass there.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59Simon, what do you do?

0:12:59 > 0:13:01I'm a software developer, same as Steve. Good stuff.

0:13:01 > 0:13:06And so you work on projects. Presumably you don't really...do you meet up when you're working

0:13:06 > 0:13:08on things together or are you just in touch online?

0:13:08 > 0:13:12Yeah, we do sometimes. Sometimes we've both worked on-site together,

0:13:12 > 0:13:15other times we just contact each other online.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18And in your spare time, Simon, what do you get up to?

0:13:18 > 0:13:21Well, we've also got a young baby,

0:13:21 > 0:13:23and atually she's a big Pointless fan,

0:13:23 > 0:13:28so a lot of my spare time is spent sat with Lucy, watching Pointless.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Right, Simon, what about these operas?

0:13:30 > 0:13:34I could go for the one I know but I think if we're through anyway,

0:13:34 > 0:13:37I'll guess and hope that I get a Pointless answer

0:13:37 > 0:13:40and we crank the jackpot up a bit.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42This is totally a guess, the last one on the board.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45Rise And Fall Of The City Of Rome.

0:13:45 > 0:13:49Rise and Fall Of The City Of Rome. Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said it.

0:13:49 > 0:13:53No red line for you, you're already through.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Ohhh, bad luck!

0:13:55 > 0:13:57Bad luck, Simon. I'm afraid an incorrect answer,

0:13:57 > 0:14:00scoring you the maximum of 100 points. 143, your total.

0:14:00 > 0:14:01Good for you, Simon.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04It was a nice thing to try, you knew it was a tough one.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08Now, Andy. Yes. Andy.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12We have a game on our hands. Indeed. Not a fun one.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14We have a game on our hands.

0:14:14 > 0:14:18Not only are you an ex-pupil of Richard's old school... Mm-hmm.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20..you now teach there.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23I'm a teaching assistant there, yes. A teaching assistant there. Yes.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26I mean, you have brought the spirit of Warden Park

0:14:26 > 0:14:28right here to the studio.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30Yeah, you have. You know what you have to do.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33You went our Round One last time. It cannot happen this time.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35It can!

0:14:35 > 0:14:39You're on 93, you have to score 71 or less. That's quite easy.

0:14:40 > 0:14:41On another round, maybe.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43Talk us through the board, Andy.

0:14:43 > 0:14:46Erm, I don't know any of them, I'm afraid.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Erm...The Music Of Figaro?

0:14:51 > 0:14:55I'm going to skip that one. Betty Grimes, that sounds fun.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59Murder On The Beach, that sounds fun as well.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04The Cunning Little Rabbit, perhaps.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Erm, but the one I'm going to go for,

0:15:06 > 0:15:09or the one I'm going to guess, is the last one.

0:15:09 > 0:15:13Good luck. I'm going to say, Rise And Fall Of The City Of Atlantis.

0:15:14 > 0:15:19The Rise And Fall Of The City of...? Atlantis. That's my guess. Atlantis.

0:15:19 > 0:15:22OK, here comes your red line.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24You get below that, you're in the next round.

0:15:26 > 0:15:30Atlantis, is that right? The Rise And Fall Of The City Of Atlantis.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32If it is right, how many people said it?

0:15:35 > 0:15:37Andy-y-y...

0:15:37 > 0:15:40I'm sorry to say an incorrect answer scores you

0:15:40 > 0:15:42the maximum of 100 points and takes your total up to 193.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44I'm really sorry. Oh, well.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47Oh, Andy, Andy, Andy...

0:15:47 > 0:15:49Honestly, if I could think of anything to say to make it

0:15:49 > 0:15:51better I would, but I can't.

0:15:52 > 0:15:56So, Rise And Fall Of The City Of...well, we know it's not Atlantis.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58We know it's not Rome. There's very few cities left.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00It is of course, Rise And Fall Of The City Of...?

0:16:00 > 0:16:03It's the only one I don't know on that board. Mahagonny.

0:16:03 > 0:16:064 points it would've scored, so very well done if you got that.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09The City Of Mahagonny. There we go. something to remember. There you go.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12It's not the Music Of Figaro it's... Marriage.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15Marriage Of Figaro and would've seen you through cos it's only 67 points.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18And the next one down is... Peter Grimes.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21Betty Grimes' husband, yep, would've scored you 28.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24It is not Murder On The Beach. It's Einstein On The Beach.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Yeah, 6 points. And The Cunning Little... Vixen.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31No, it's rabbit, I'm afraid.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33LAUGHTER It's vixen, 17 points for that.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36Thanks very much indeed. Now, at the end of our First Round.

0:16:36 > 0:16:37Oh, this is terrible.

0:16:37 > 0:16:41Last time, First Round, this time First Round, Andy and Hannah,

0:16:41 > 0:16:42two clearly bright contestants,

0:16:42 > 0:16:46I'm afraid opera is what we threw at you. Oh, well.

0:16:46 > 0:16:48The Marriage Of Figaro, did that somehow ring a bell?

0:16:48 > 0:16:51Kind of, I'm not really an opera buff to be honest.

0:16:51 > 0:16:56Fair enough. Well, I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to you this time and it really is goodbye.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58We've loved having you on the show, briefly, each time.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01Andy and Hannah, thanks so much for playing.

0:17:01 > 0:17:03APPLAUSE

0:17:03 > 0:17:06But for the three remaining pairs it's now time for Round Two.

0:17:11 > 0:17:15Three pairs remain and at the end of this round we'll be saying goodbye to ANOTHER pair.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17Well, that was an incredible round.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20I have to say, with remarkably few incorrect answers.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23It was our highest scoring round, PROBABLY ever!

0:17:23 > 0:17:25LAUGHTER

0:17:25 > 0:17:28Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two is...

0:17:30 > 0:17:33Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:17:41 > 0:17:45We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name a many players who've

0:17:45 > 0:17:49defeated Andy Murray in a Grand Slam tournament as they could.

0:17:49 > 0:17:53Players who've defeated Andy Murray in a Grand Slam tournament, Richard.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Yeah, we're looking for the name of any player who has beaten

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Andy Murray in a singles event in a Grand Slam tournament since

0:17:58 > 0:18:00he turned professional in 2005,

0:18:00 > 0:18:02all the way through to April 2013, please.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05So it's any of the Grand Slam tournaments,

0:18:05 > 0:18:08which are the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon and The US Open.

0:18:08 > 0:18:09Very best of luck.

0:18:09 > 0:18:13Thanks very much indeed. So we're looking for any tennis player who's defeated Andy Murray

0:18:13 > 0:18:16in a Grand Slam tournament since 2005.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Now, Simon, tennis good for you?

0:18:18 > 0:18:21No, tennis is terrible for me.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23And I'm sure this is going to be a very high scorer

0:18:23 > 0:18:26but the only name I can think of is Roger Federer.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28Roger Federer, says Simon.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31Let's see how many of our 100 people said Roger Federer.

0:18:32 > 0:18:33It's right.

0:18:36 > 0:18:3854! Not too bad.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40APPLAUSE

0:18:41 > 0:18:4354 for Roger Federer.

0:18:43 > 0:18:46Yes, the Madame Butterfly of answers in this round, Roger Federer.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48Yeah, he's beaten Murray three times.

0:18:48 > 0:18:51All three times in finals, actually, Wimbledon, US Open and French Open.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54Thanks very much indeed. Now, Nicki.

0:18:54 > 0:18:55Nicki, tennis?

0:18:56 > 0:18:59Reasonable. No, I meant, tennis?

0:18:59 > 0:19:01We've got some rackets and a court back here...

0:19:01 > 0:19:05Do you mind...if we just went and had a quick knock up?

0:19:05 > 0:19:08You go right ahead. As long as you don't mind us carrying on with the show.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11No, I think we'd better remain. Back to plan A.

0:19:11 > 0:19:14Nicki, we want the name of any tennis player who's beaten

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Andy Murray in a Grand Slam tournament.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18What are you going to go for?

0:19:18 > 0:19:21I could go for one of the really obvious ones.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Well, no, don't do that!

0:19:23 > 0:19:28But I'm not going to. I think I'm going to go for Jo Wilfried Tsonga.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30Jo Wilfried Tsonga, says Nicki, let's see if that's right.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37He has.

0:19:43 > 0:19:443, Nicki.

0:19:44 > 0:19:47APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:19:47 > 0:19:50Very, very well done. That's a great answer. Jo Wilfried Tsonga.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53Very well played, Nicki. Yeah, Murray's beaten him

0:19:53 > 0:19:56a couple of times but Tsonga beat Murray in the first round

0:19:56 > 0:19:58of the Australian Open in 2008.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Thank you, Richard. Now, Tom.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04So any tennis player who has beaten Andy Murray in a Grand Slam tournament.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07I'm going to go for Stanislas Wawrinka.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10OK, just say that really slowly for me. Stanislas Wawrinka.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Stanislas Wawrinka.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Let's see if that's right and if it is,

0:20:14 > 0:20:16let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19It's right.

0:20:25 > 0:20:26Two!

0:20:28 > 0:20:32Two, Tom, for Wawrinka. Very well done indeed.

0:20:32 > 0:20:37Yeah, he beat him in the last 32 of the US Open in 2010.

0:20:37 > 0:20:41Thanks very much indeed. We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44Two, the best score of that pass for Tom, very, very well done indeed.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46Then Nicki and Heather on three

0:20:46 > 0:20:49and then all the way up to 54 where we find Simon and Steve.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Steve, are you good on tennis?

0:20:51 > 0:20:54Simon makes me look good at tennis so,

0:20:54 > 0:20:55not feeling good about what's coming.

0:20:55 > 0:20:59I have a feeling I might know what's going to happen in this next pass.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01Anyway, we're going to come back down the line.

0:21:01 > 0:21:05Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:21:05 > 0:21:08James, we're looking for any tennis player who has defeated

0:21:08 > 0:21:12Andy Murray in a Grand Slam tournament since 2005.

0:21:12 > 0:21:16OK, not my best subject by a long shot. This is a bit of a punt.

0:21:16 > 0:21:21I'm going to say Novak Djokovic. Novak Djokovic, says James.

0:21:21 > 0:21:25Well, you're on two. The high scorers are Steve and Simon on 54.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28If you can get below that red line, scoring 51 or less,

0:21:28 > 0:21:30you are through to the head-to-head.

0:21:30 > 0:21:32Djokovic, is it right and how many people said it?

0:21:34 > 0:21:36It is right.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41And you are through to the head-to-head, very well done.

0:21:41 > 0:21:44Still going down, look at that, 26. Very well done. 28, your total.

0:21:47 > 0:21:51Yeah, Djokovic beat Murray three times, all in Australia.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54He beat him in the final in 2011 and 2013

0:21:54 > 0:21:56and in the semifinal in 2012 as well.

0:21:56 > 0:22:00Murray, of course, famously beat him in the US Open in 2012.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02Thanks, Richard. Heather?

0:22:03 > 0:22:06Oh, no, is this bad for you? Yeah.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09All you have to score is 50 or less

0:22:09 > 0:22:13and you are through to the next round.

0:22:13 > 0:22:17So, any tennis player who has beaten Andy Murray in a Grand Slam tournament?

0:22:17 > 0:22:20Em, is Andy Roddick a tennis player?

0:22:20 > 0:22:23I don't know who you're asking! Just thinking out loud.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26No-one is allowed to tell you! Andy Roddick.

0:22:27 > 0:22:31Andy Roddick, says Heather. Well, there is your red line.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33Below that and you're in the head-to-head.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36Let's see if Andy Roddick is right and if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:22:38 > 0:22:39It's right.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45And you are through on the strength of it.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48Seven, the third lowest score of the round, Heather.

0:22:52 > 0:22:5510 is your total. A stab in the dark.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58That is another suspiciously good answer, isn't it?

0:22:58 > 0:23:01Yeah, he famously broke British hearts by beating Murray

0:23:01 > 0:23:04in the semifinals at Wimbledon in 2009.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06Thanks very much indeed. Now then, Steve.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09There is grave news to be imparted.

0:23:09 > 0:23:13I'm afraid you are the high scorers, even before you have answered.

0:23:13 > 0:23:17However, what would you have gone for? Or what will you go for?

0:23:17 > 0:23:18We still need an answer.

0:23:18 > 0:23:19It's tricky.

0:23:19 > 0:23:23As I said, my knowledge of tennis is worse than that of Simon's.

0:23:23 > 0:23:28So I might say Leyton Hewitt. Leyton Hewitt, says Steve.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30Leyton Hewitt, let's see if that's right.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33No red line for you, I'm afraid, as you're the high scorers already,

0:23:33 > 0:23:38but let's see how many of our 100 people said Leyton Hewitt, let's see if it's right.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40No! Bad luck, Steve.

0:23:40 > 0:23:45Incorrect, it scores you 100 points and takes your total up to 154.

0:23:45 > 0:23:46Sorry, Steve, worth a punt.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48They've never actually played in Grand Slams.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51They've played in lots of tournaments but never in Grand Slams.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54Let's take a look at some pointless answers. There's nine of them.

0:23:54 > 0:23:58There's not that many who have beaten Murray. It's usually one of the big guys who does.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01Some of these were from earlier in his career. Some big-name players.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04Arnaud Clement beat him in his first US Open.

0:24:04 > 0:24:07David Nalbandian, the Argentinian, beat him in his first Wimbledon.

0:24:07 > 0:24:08The Chilean, Fernando Gonzalez,

0:24:08 > 0:24:12beat him in the quarterfinals of the French Open.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15Verdasco beat him in the Australian Open.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18Gael Monfils, the Frenchman, beat him in France.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21Hyung-Taik Lee beat him in the last 32 of the US Open.

0:24:21 > 0:24:25Juan Ignacio Chela beat him in Australia.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28Nicolas Almagro, the Spaniard, beat him in France,

0:24:28 > 0:24:31and Davydenko beat him in the US Open in 2006.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34Let's take a look at the top three answers, we've already heard a couple of them.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36Djokovic, 26.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38The other famous tennis player, Rafael Nadal,

0:24:38 > 0:24:42would have scored you 42. Right at the top, Federer, 54.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of our second round,

0:24:45 > 0:24:47I'm afraid it's Steve and Simon who'll be leaving us

0:24:47 > 0:24:49with their high score of 154.

0:24:49 > 0:24:53The old tennis, that didn't play very well into your hands, I'm afraid.

0:24:53 > 0:24:57We're not doing much for the stereotype of software people, are we? No.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00To be honest, I wasn't really sure what the stereotype was.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02That's very kind.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05Anyway, Steve and Simon, we'll look forward to seeing you next time

0:25:05 > 0:25:07when I'm sure you'll do much better,

0:25:07 > 0:25:10but thanks very much for playing meanwhile. Steve and Simon!

0:25:12 > 0:25:15But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24Congratulations Nicki and Heather, James and Tom,

0:25:24 > 0:25:27you're now one step closer to the final and a chance to play for our jackpot

0:25:27 > 0:25:29which currently stands at ?6,000.

0:25:32 > 0:25:36To decide which pair is going to play for that money, you're now going to go head-to-head.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39The difference being that now you are allowed to confer.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45Best of luck to both pairs, let's play the head-to-head.

0:25:50 > 0:25:54OK, here comes your first question and it concerns famous foodies.

0:25:56 > 0:25:57Famous foodies, Richard.

0:25:57 > 0:26:00We're going to show you five pictures of famous chefs and cooks.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02Can you name the most obscure?

0:26:02 > 0:26:05OK, let's reveal our five famous foodies and here they are.

0:26:05 > 0:26:06We have got:

0:26:25 > 0:26:29There we are. Five famous foodies.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32Nicki and Heather, you've played best throughout the show so far

0:26:32 > 0:26:33so you get to go first.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36Excellent. Are you pleased with this?

0:26:36 > 0:26:40It could be worse. It could be tennis players!

0:26:40 > 0:26:42Do you know any of them?

0:26:42 > 0:26:47I know two of them. I would say three.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57OK, we'll go for A is Raymond Blanc.

0:26:58 > 0:26:59A, Raymond Blanc.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02Now, James and Tom?

0:27:04 > 0:27:08We thought we had an answer for A which is different to that.

0:27:08 > 0:27:12You can submit another answer for that if you like but talk us through the board.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16You can say who you thought A was.

0:27:16 > 0:27:18Going for French chefs, we thought Marco Pierre White.

0:27:18 > 0:27:21B, we think possibly Mary Berry.

0:27:21 > 0:27:27E, Gary Rhodes, and C and D, we're not sure.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29What do you reckon?

0:27:29 > 0:27:31We're going to go for B, Mary Berry.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34B, Mary Berry, say James and Tom.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36Now, Nicki and Heather had said Raymond Blanc for A.

0:27:36 > 0:27:41Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said Raymond Blanc.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45Oh, not Raymond Blanc, I'm afraid.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47James and Tom, you merely have to be correct with B, Mary Berry,

0:27:47 > 0:27:50and if it's right, you will have won this question.

0:27:50 > 0:27:52Is it and how many people said it, if it is?

0:27:55 > 0:27:58It is of course right, very well done.

0:27:58 > 0:28:0054 for Mary Berry.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05After one question, James and Tom, you're up 1-0.

0:28:05 > 0:28:08The lovely Mary Berry. She came on the show, didn't she with Paul Hollywood?

0:28:08 > 0:28:11Wasn't she nice? Wasn't she nice? She was delightful.

0:28:11 > 0:28:15A is not Raymond Blanc, I'm afraid. It is a French chef so, guys, it is?

0:28:15 > 0:28:18Marco Pierre White. No, he's English.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21It's Jean-Christophe Novelli.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23He would have scored you eight points.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25He's been on as well.

0:28:25 > 0:28:29C is the first man to get a Michelin star in Northern Ireland.

0:28:29 > 0:28:34He looks as if he's in a Genesis tribute band there. It's Paul Rankin.

0:28:34 > 0:28:35He would have scored you six.

0:28:37 > 0:28:42D is the lovely Lorraine Pascale, she would have scored you 18.

0:28:43 > 0:28:46E is, as I think both teams new, Gary Rhodes.

0:28:47 > 0:28:49He would have scored you 37,

0:28:49 > 0:28:52so the best answer on that board is Paul Rankin.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54Thanks very much, so here comes your second question.

0:28:54 > 0:28:57James and Tom, you get to answer it first, but Nicki and Heather,

0:28:57 > 0:29:01you have to win it to stay in the game. Good luck.

0:29:01 > 0:29:02It concerns Big Ben.

0:29:04 > 0:29:05Big Ben, Richard.

0:29:05 > 0:29:08We're going to show you five clues to facts about the London landmark

0:29:08 > 0:29:12that's commonly known as Big Ben. Can you provide us with the best answer?

0:29:12 > 0:29:14Thanks very much indeed, let's reveal our five clues

0:29:14 > 0:29:15and here they are.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36I'll read those all one last time.

0:29:53 > 0:29:55There you are, five clues to facts about Big Ben.

0:29:55 > 0:29:58James and Tom, you go first.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04Go for it. Can we go for the occasion

0:30:04 > 0:30:07for which Big Ben's were first broadcast?

0:30:07 > 0:30:10I think the news.

0:30:10 > 0:30:12The news.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15The news. The occasion for which Big Ben's chimes were first broadcast

0:30:15 > 0:30:16was for the News.

0:30:16 > 0:30:20Now, Nicky and Heather, the board is all yours.

0:30:21 > 0:30:24We don't know the anniversary.

0:30:26 > 0:30:31The number of years the bells were silenced during the First World War,

0:30:31 > 0:30:33we were guessing four but we're not sure about that.

0:30:34 > 0:30:39We're thinking the language is probably Latin, and the Queen...

0:30:39 > 0:30:43Is the Queen. ..is the current Queen Elizabeth II.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47But we were thinking the occasion is New Year's Eve...

0:30:47 > 0:30:50at midnight. The midnight New Year thing.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53OK, New Year. OK. New Year, say Nicky and Heather.

0:30:53 > 0:30:55James and Tom saying the News.

0:30:55 > 0:30:57Nicky and Heather saying New Year's Eve.

0:30:57 > 0:30:58Let's see if the news is right and,

0:30:58 > 0:31:00if it is, let's see how many people said, "The News."

0:31:03 > 0:31:06No. No.

0:31:06 > 0:31:08Let's see if New Year's Eve is right and, if it is right,

0:31:08 > 0:31:10and that's all it has to be,

0:31:10 > 0:31:12Nick and Heather, it will win you the question.

0:31:14 > 0:31:16Absolutely right. Very well done.

0:31:21 > 0:31:23Seven. Good answer. Good score.

0:31:24 > 0:31:26And exactly what you needed to do.

0:31:26 > 0:31:29After two questions, you are back in the game. It is one-all.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31Let's take a look at the rest of these.

0:31:31 > 0:31:35The special anniversary it celebrated was 150 years -

0:31:35 > 0:31:3714 points for that.

0:31:37 > 0:31:40It was only silenced for two years during the First World War,

0:31:40 > 0:31:43so would have been a tough one to go for - 9 points.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45The language, it is Latin.

0:31:45 > 0:31:47That would have scored you 45.

0:31:47 > 0:31:49And the Queen is the current Queen, Elizabeth II.

0:31:49 > 0:31:51That would have scored you 50.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53So, New Year's Eve is actually the best answer on the board,

0:31:53 > 0:31:55so very well played. Thanks very much, Richard.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58So, it comes down to a third question. This is the decider.

0:31:58 > 0:32:00Whoever wins this goes through to the final

0:32:00 > 0:32:03and plays for that jackpot of ?6,000. Best of luck, both pairs.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05Your third question concerns...

0:32:05 > 0:32:08films with a nationality in the title.

0:32:08 > 0:32:10Films with a nationality in the title, Richard.

0:32:10 > 0:32:13We're going to show you the titles of five films with one word missing,

0:32:13 > 0:32:15and that word in each case is a nationality.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17Very best of luck filling in the gaps.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20OK. Let's reveal our five films with a nationality missing

0:32:20 > 0:32:22and here they are.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41I'll read those all one last time.

0:32:59 > 0:33:02Nicky and Heather, you go first this time.

0:33:02 > 0:33:04Ooh.

0:33:04 > 0:33:06We only really know two.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09Should we go for the wedding one, then?

0:33:09 > 0:33:13Go for the wedding one. We'll go for My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16OK. Greek. My Big Fat Greek Wedding, say Nicky and Heather.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18James and Tom.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20Well, I think we know a few.

0:33:20 > 0:33:24The Mexican is the top one...

0:33:24 > 0:33:27The Italian Job. And I think I'm going to go for the high-brow one.

0:33:27 > 0:33:28I'll go for Slap Her, She's French!

0:33:28 > 0:33:31Slap Her, She's French!, say James and Tom.

0:33:31 > 0:33:34Slap Her, She's French! So, we have My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36Let's see if that's right and,

0:33:36 > 0:33:38if it is, let's see how many people said that.

0:33:38 > 0:33:40My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

0:33:41 > 0:33:43It's right.

0:33:44 > 0:33:4666.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51James and Tom are going for Slap Her, She's French!

0:33:51 > 0:33:53Let's see if that's right and,

0:33:53 > 0:33:55if it is, let's see how many people said that.

0:33:56 > 0:34:00It's right. If it beats 66 - and it does -

0:34:00 > 0:34:01it sees you into the final.

0:34:02 > 0:34:0423.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09Very well done, James and Tom.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11After three questions, you are through to the final 2-1.

0:34:11 > 0:34:16Well played. My Big Fat Greek Wedding grossed nearly $370m worldwide.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18Slap Her, She's French!, less so.

0:34:18 > 0:34:19It scored less.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21You were right about The Mexican.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24It would have been a very good score as well - 10 points.

0:34:24 > 0:34:27The Italian Job, it's the biggest scorer up there,

0:34:27 > 0:34:28perhaps unsurprisingly 87.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31And the best answer on the board, starred George Clooney as well,

0:34:31 > 0:34:34it was The Good German. 5 points if you said that. Very well played.

0:34:34 > 0:34:36Thanks very much indeed.

0:34:36 > 0:34:39So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:34:39 > 0:34:42I'm afraid, Nicky and Heather. It was a great head-to-head round

0:34:42 > 0:34:44and you played incredibly well.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46New Year's Eve was a particularly good answer.

0:34:46 > 0:34:48Very well played the whole way through today's show.

0:34:48 > 0:34:50I'm sorry we have to say goodbye to you now.

0:34:50 > 0:34:52It's been great having you on.

0:34:52 > 0:34:54Thank you so much for playing, Nicky and Heather.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57APPLAUSE

0:34:57 > 0:35:00But for James and Tom, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:04 > 0:35:07Congratulations, James and Tom. You've seen off all the competition

0:35:07 > 0:35:09and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:15 > 0:35:18You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot and,

0:35:18 > 0:35:21at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at ?6,000.

0:35:21 > 0:35:24APPLAUSE

0:35:24 > 0:35:28Well, I have to say, it's been a very high-brow show today(!)

0:35:28 > 0:35:30Very high-brow indeed(!)

0:35:30 > 0:35:33Yeah, I think you deserve a break in this round.

0:35:33 > 0:35:36You've done very, very well and extremely well played throughout.

0:35:36 > 0:35:38Now, as always, you start this round by choosing a category

0:35:38 > 0:35:41and you have a choice of four options. They are...

0:35:49 > 0:35:51Wow. Ooh.

0:35:55 > 0:36:01Er, we're thinking the lesser of those four evils might be dance.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03Ha-ha!

0:36:03 > 0:36:05Really? Depends how evil it is.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08They're all as bad as each other. Let's say dance.

0:36:10 > 0:36:11Good. Good.

0:36:11 > 0:36:15You're going to go with dance. They've gone with dance, Richard.

0:36:15 > 0:36:17We're going to give you three categories now,

0:36:17 > 0:36:19hopefully it will make your jobs slightly easier.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22It might make your job slightly harder, but let's take a little look.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25Can you give us the name of any film for which Fred Astaire

0:36:25 > 0:36:28and Ginger Rogers both received an acting credit according to IMDB?

0:36:28 > 0:36:31Can you give us the name of any professional dancer who has

0:36:31 > 0:36:33won Strictly Come Dancing?

0:36:33 > 0:36:35So, any of the pros who dance with the celebs

0:36:35 > 0:36:36who have won Strictly.

0:36:36 > 0:36:39Or any ballet which Darcey Bussell has been the principal

0:36:39 > 0:36:42dancer or soloist for the Royal Ballet at the Royal Opera House.

0:36:42 > 0:36:45So, any ballet for which Darcey Bussell

0:36:45 > 0:36:46has been the principal dancer.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers films,

0:36:48 > 0:36:51professional winners of Strictly and Darcey Bussell performances.

0:36:51 > 0:36:53Very, very best of luck, guys.

0:36:53 > 0:36:57OK. As always, you've got up to a minute to come up with three answers.

0:36:57 > 0:36:59And to win that jackpot of ?6,000,

0:36:59 > 0:37:01all you have to do is find just one pointless answer.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04Now remember, the answers you give can come from any of those

0:37:04 > 0:37:06categories. They can be three from one, one from each,

0:37:06 > 0:37:08two from one, one from an another,

0:37:08 > 0:37:10it's entirely up to you. Are you ready?

0:37:11 > 0:37:13OK. Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.

0:37:13 > 0:37:15There they are. Your time starts now.

0:37:15 > 0:37:18Any Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers films?

0:37:18 > 0:37:22I can think of Top Hat. That's the only one I know.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24That's going to be quite a high score.

0:37:24 > 0:37:27We'll work out way down. I never watched Strictly Come Dancing.

0:37:27 > 0:37:31Flavia Cacace is a professional dancer on Strictly.

0:37:31 > 0:37:32Anton Du Beke...

0:37:32 > 0:37:36You wouldn't...? I've never watched it.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38Erm...

0:37:38 > 0:37:42And Darcey Bussell... Just think of famous ballets.

0:37:42 > 0:37:43I think avoid that.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46I think professional winners of Strictly Come Dancing.

0:37:46 > 0:37:51Anton Du Beke, Flavia Cacace... Who are the others?

0:37:51 > 0:37:53Who is the guy who danced with Lisa Riley?

0:37:53 > 0:37:55Cos they were in it for ages.

0:37:55 > 0:37:57Australian dancer, wasn't he?

0:37:59 > 0:38:01Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04There's a song, The Night They Turned Loch Lomond Into Swing,

0:38:04 > 0:38:06but I don't think... Ten seconds left.

0:38:10 > 0:38:14No. I think we'll take the one film, which I think might be wrong,

0:38:14 > 0:38:16and two dancers. Yeah, go on then.

0:38:16 > 0:38:19OK. That's your time up. I'm afraid I now need your three answers.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21What are you going to say?

0:38:21 > 0:38:26OK. I'm not sure that this is a film - it may be a song from a film -

0:38:26 > 0:38:29but I'm going to say The Night They Turned Loch Lomond Into Swing.

0:38:29 > 0:38:32The Night They Turned Loch Lomond Into Swing. OK.

0:38:32 > 0:38:35And professional winners of Strictly...

0:38:38 > 0:38:41Flavia Cacace... Flavia Cacace.

0:38:41 > 0:38:43..and Anton Du Beke. And Anton Du Beke.

0:38:43 > 0:38:45OK. There are your three answers.

0:38:45 > 0:38:48Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:48 > 0:38:49Probably Flavia Cacace.

0:38:49 > 0:38:53Flavia Cacace we'll put last. Your least likely to be pointless?

0:38:53 > 0:38:55Probably The Night They Turned...

0:38:55 > 0:38:57The Night They Turned Loch Lomond Into Swing. OK.

0:38:57 > 0:39:00Let's put those answers up on the board in that order

0:39:00 > 0:39:01and here they are.

0:39:06 > 0:39:08Well, very best of luck.

0:39:08 > 0:39:10Your first answer was the one you thought was probably

0:39:10 > 0:39:12the least likely to be pointless.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15The Night They Turned Loch Lomond Into Swing.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18OK. Now, if this is right and it's pointless it will win you ?6,000.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20What will you do with that, James?

0:39:21 > 0:39:24I think our girlfriends will probably have spent

0:39:24 > 0:39:26it by the time we get home.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29Erm...but possibly a deposit for a house,

0:39:29 > 0:39:31something like that.

0:39:31 > 0:39:33Tom? Furnish the flat I've got.

0:39:33 > 0:39:36Erm...probably put some actually furniture in it, maybe.

0:39:36 > 0:39:40It's just completely empty, is it, now? You'd be surprised.

0:39:40 > 0:39:41Well, very best of luck.

0:39:41 > 0:39:44Three perfectly reasonable looking answers on the board there.

0:39:44 > 0:39:46This first one though...

0:39:46 > 0:39:49And it's just some song you know...

0:39:49 > 0:39:51and you think it could be the name of a show.

0:39:51 > 0:39:52You never know.

0:39:52 > 0:39:55It could be very, very exciting if it were. Let's find out.

0:39:55 > 0:40:00For ?6,000, was The Night They Turned Loch Lomond Into Swing

0:40:00 > 0:40:02a film starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers?

0:40:05 > 0:40:08Ooh, bad luck. Bad luck, an incorrect answer.

0:40:08 > 0:40:10So, onto your next answer.

0:40:10 > 0:40:11We were looking, in this instance,

0:40:11 > 0:40:14for professional dancers on Strictly.

0:40:14 > 0:40:15You have gone for Anton Du Beke.

0:40:15 > 0:40:19Again, if it's right and if it's pointless, it will win you ?6,000. Let's find out.

0:40:19 > 0:40:22Anton Du Beke, was he a professional winner on Strictly?

0:40:24 > 0:40:27Oh, bad luck.

0:40:27 > 0:40:28Two incorrect answers.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31Everything is now riding on Flavia Cacace, your third and final answer,

0:40:31 > 0:40:34but you thought this was your best shot at a pointless answer.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36So, if this is right...

0:40:36 > 0:40:38that's all it needs to be really.

0:40:38 > 0:40:40You can see how far down the column you get.

0:40:40 > 0:40:42If you get down to the bottom, you leave with ?6,000.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44Let's find out. Flavia Cacace,

0:40:44 > 0:40:47was she a winning professional on Strictly Come Dancing?

0:40:49 > 0:40:51Yes, she was, very well done indeed.

0:40:51 > 0:40:55Your first answer, The Night They Turned Loch Lomond Into Swing, was incorrect.

0:40:55 > 0:40:57Your second, Anton Du Beke, was incorrect.

0:40:57 > 0:41:00But Flavia Cacace is taking you down into single figures.

0:41:00 > 0:41:02Down she goes, is she...? Oh, no! Bad luck.

0:41:07 > 0:41:09That's a good score.

0:41:09 > 0:41:115 is a good score whichever way you look at it.

0:41:11 > 0:41:14Sadly, in this last round, we are ONLY interested in pointless scores

0:41:14 > 0:41:16and I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that pointless answer.

0:41:16 > 0:41:18You don't win today's jackpot of ?6,000,

0:41:18 > 0:41:20which will roll over onto the next show.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22We've loved having you on the show

0:41:22 > 0:41:25and you do get to take home a Pointless trophy each.

0:41:25 > 0:41:27Thank you.

0:41:32 > 0:41:33Yeah, unlucky, guys.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36Strictly winners wasn't the worst category in the world for you.

0:41:36 > 0:41:38Anton Du Beke has never won Strictly -

0:41:38 > 0:41:41third place is the best he's ever done there with Lesley Garrett.

0:41:41 > 0:41:45And it was Since They Turned Loch Lomond Into Swing and it is a song.

0:41:45 > 0:41:49It's from a film called Carefree, which would have scored you 1 point.

0:41:49 > 0:41:51Let's look at some of the pointless answers.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54Some people would have done well on a couple of these categories I think.

0:42:06 > 0:42:07Well done if you said any of those.
