0:00:18 > 0:00:20APPLAUSE
0:00:20 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:25 > 0:00:27the show that makes big winners out of the lowest scorers.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29Let's meet today's players.
0:00:33 > 0:00:34And couple number one.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38Hello, I'm Alan and this is Joy, my wife of 46 years,
0:00:38 > 0:00:40and we reside in Leighton Buzzard.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42Couple number two?
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hi, I'm Bartholomew, this is my mum Sandra,
0:00:44 > 0:00:46and we are from Stratford-upon-Avon.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Couple number three?
0:00:47 > 0:00:51This is Sharron, I'm Alan, and we're golf buddies from Staffordshire.
0:00:51 > 0:00:52And finally couple number four.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56Hi, I'm Rob, this is Kerry, we're husband and wife from Solihull.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58And these are today's contestants.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00APPLAUSE
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Thanks all of you. We'll get to know more about you throughout the show
0:01:04 > 0:01:07as it goes along. That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09He is the next big thing on the UK hip hop scene,
0:01:09 > 0:01:12and South England's rap battle champion four years running.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14His rhymes be ill, blood.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18- He's my Pointless friend. He's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20APPLAUSE Hi, everybody. Hiya.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26- There's a lot of truth in that. Er, good afternoon to you.- And to you.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28- Now, you'll have noticed what I've noticed, I'm sure.- Yeah.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31- We've had an awful lot of Alans lately.- Yeah, I know.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34- We've been really Alan-heavy, haven't we?- Yeah.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36Like a surfeit of Alans.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39I'm worried, as you will be, that there's an Alan shortage
0:01:39 > 0:01:42somewhere else in the country because we've got so many of them.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45- Yeah.- If, say, you're living in the Bristol area or something
0:01:45 > 0:01:47and there's not enough Alans, we apologise.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Hopefully after today we're not going to have more after today.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51They're bringing Alans up from Devon,
0:01:51 > 0:01:53there's a surfeit of Alans there luckily.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56- So they're bussing them in? - Up the M5, yeah.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59That's a lot of Alans. Also, the other thing to note...
0:01:59 > 0:02:00- Tell me.- ..is I think maybe
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Bartholomew's the longest name we've ever had on the show,
0:02:02 > 0:02:05cos that's the smallest font we've ever had on a name tag,
0:02:05 > 0:02:07- I'm certain.- Yeah.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09- Now, Sandra, Bartholomew's your son, of course.- Yes.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Did you not think of a nice name like, say, Alan?
0:02:11 > 0:02:12LAUGHTER
0:02:12 > 0:02:16- Never crossed my mind, funnily enough.- Wow.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20As usual, all of today's questions have been asked
0:02:20 > 0:02:22to 100 people before the show.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24All our contestants have to do is
0:02:24 > 0:02:28hunt out those important pointless answers no-one else has given.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Each time that happens we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Mairead and Fintan won the jackpot last time
0:02:34 > 0:02:37so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43APPLAUSE
0:02:43 > 0:02:46OK, now, the pair with the highest score at the end of the round
0:02:46 > 0:02:47will be eliminated,
0:02:47 > 0:02:51and do remember there is to be no conferring during the round itself.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53OK, our first category today is...
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Pop Music. Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:02:58 > 0:02:59who's going to go second?
0:02:59 > 0:03:02And whoever's going first please step up to the podium.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:10 > 0:03:11Number One Singles of the '90s.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Er, we're going to show you
0:03:13 > 0:03:15seven number one singles of the '90s on each pass.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17You just need to tell us the act that had a number one single
0:03:17 > 0:03:18with each of these, please.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22There's going to be 14 to have a go at at home, so very best of luck.
0:03:22 > 0:03:23Thanks very much indeed.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25So we are looking for the artists who reached number one with
0:03:25 > 0:03:28these songs in the years shown, and here is our first board of seven.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43I'll read those all one last time.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00Now, then, Alan P and Joy, you all drew lots before the show,
0:04:00 > 0:04:03and today you are going to go first. Welcome back, Alan.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07- What happened last time?- Er, we got to the head-to-head.- It was great.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Yeah, and we were undone by the president of Argentina.
0:04:10 > 0:04:15- Yes, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner. There we are.- Yeah.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18We'll remember that now. What do you get up to in Leighton Buzzard?
0:04:18 > 0:04:22Er, play a lot of golf, erm, started playing bowls now.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23What kind of bowls do you do?
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Oh, erm, we just started, it's lawn bowls in the summer,
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- and in the winter it's indoors and short mat.- Short mat, OK, very good.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Which is nice cos it's indoors. - Very nice.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Now, Alan, what about all these songs from the '90s?
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Number one songs from the '90s, how are you feeling about those?
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Well, if it was the 1890s I might stand a chance.
0:04:42 > 0:04:43LAUGHTER
0:04:43 > 0:04:48Erm, but The Shoop Shoop Song, I've got an idea of somebody called Cher.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Cher says Alan. Let's see if that's right for The Shoop Shoop Song.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Let's see how many of our 100 people also said Cher.
0:04:59 > 0:05:0176.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03APPLAUSE
0:05:03 > 0:05:08- 76.- Yeah, her first number one single as a solo artist that was.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11She's also the only female artist in history to have
0:05:11 > 0:05:13American number ones in the '60s, '70s, '80s and '90s.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17- That's pretty good going, isn't it? - Mm, that is good going.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- Thanks, Richard. Now, Bartholomew, welcome.- Hi!
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- So, Bartholomew, what do you do? - I am a student at Leeds University.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26- What are you studying? - Economics and History.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Which of the two of those do you like the best?
0:05:28 > 0:05:32- Imagining none of your tutors are watching. Go on.- History.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36- Ho-ho-ho, bad luck! - Oh, your tutors ARE watching!
0:05:36 > 0:05:40What's the name of whoever's in charge of the Economics course?
0:05:40 > 0:05:43- HE GASPS - What d'you mean you don't know?!
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Maybe that's something to do with the fact that you prefer History!
0:05:46 > 0:05:51- Maybe.- Yeah, OK. Now what about the '90s, Bartholomew?
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- D'you remember them at all? - Nightmare, absolute nightmare round.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57- Right, I thought you were saying THEY were a nightmare.- Oh, no.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00"The '90s? God, don't bring them up again!"
0:06:00 > 0:06:02D'you remember any of these?
0:06:02 > 0:06:04I mean, do you know any of these?
0:06:04 > 0:06:08- One or two ring a bell.- What year were you born, Bartholomew?- '95.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10XANDER GRIMACES
0:06:10 > 0:06:14- Oh!- Ugh!- As he said that I could hear my bones creak.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16LAUGHTER
0:06:16 > 0:06:18'95! Wow.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22OK, now, then, Bartholomew, OK.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23What are you thinking?
0:06:23 > 0:06:27The one that rings a bell, about three or four acts in my mind
0:06:27 > 0:06:31who it could be, but I'm going to go The Drugs Don't Work, the Verve.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34The Verve says Bartholomew. The Verve for The Drugs Don't Work.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:06:36 > 0:06:38let's see how many of our 100 people said the Verve.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41It's right.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42It's right.
0:06:44 > 0:06:4541.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48APPLAUSE
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Very well done, Bartholomew.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53For a horrible moment I thought that was just
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Richard Ashcroft on his own but it wasn't.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57It wasn't, it was the Verve, absolutely.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59It's from the album Urban Hymns,
0:06:59 > 0:07:03and that's the 17th best selling album in UK history.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Thanks, Richard. Now, then, Sharron.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Welcome to Pointless, good to have you here. What do you do, Sharron?
0:07:09 > 0:07:12- I'm a retired police officer. - How long have you been retired?
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- Since June.- Are you missing it? - Erm, no, not really.
0:07:15 > 0:07:16LAUGHTER
0:07:16 > 0:07:20- OK, and you're playing quite a lot of golf?- Yes, quite badly, though.
0:07:20 > 0:07:24- OK. How long have you been playing golf for?- Oh, only 12 months or so.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26What a nice thing to take up, though. Very good.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Now, then, Sharron, what are you going to go for on this?
0:07:29 > 0:07:33Erm, I don't think it's right but I'm going to have to go with
0:07:33 > 0:07:36the only one that is a possibility, You Are Not Alone, Michael Jackson?
0:07:36 > 0:07:40Michael Jackson. I was thinking it was that, but let's see.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Is that right? Michael Jackson for You Are Not Alone?
0:07:43 > 0:07:45It is right! Very well done, Sharron.
0:07:45 > 0:07:4776, our high score, you've passed that,
0:07:47 > 0:07:4941 our low score, you've passed that.
0:07:49 > 0:07:5023.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53APPLAUSE
0:07:53 > 0:07:5623. You were not alone in thinking
0:07:56 > 0:07:59that that was possibly not by Michael Jackson.
0:07:59 > 0:08:00Only 23 people said it.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03That's three answers in a row there where people haven't been sure
0:08:03 > 0:08:05and have said, "I'm going to have to go for it,"
0:08:05 > 0:08:07and they've all been correct.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Erm, interesting here, debts of 500 million before his death,
0:08:10 > 0:08:14- and in the year after his death, his estate amassed 1 billion.- Mm.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18- Isn't that amazing?- Mm. Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21- So, Kerry.- Hi!- Kerry, hi, welcome to the show. Great to have you here.
0:08:21 > 0:08:26- What do you do?- I'm a music teacher. - What sort of music do you teach?
0:08:26 > 0:08:29Well, it's pre-school music so it's under four years old.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32- Oh, that's fun!- It is. - And how did you and Rob meet?
0:08:32 > 0:08:35Erm, well, I used to be a dance teacher
0:08:35 > 0:08:37and Rob came to me for lessons.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39- You were his teacher?- I was.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42- And then how long before you got married?- Erm...
0:08:42 > 0:08:44- How many years later?- About a year.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47And so your first dance must have been amazing!
0:08:47 > 0:08:49- You'd think, wouldn't you? No, not really.- OK.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53Now, then, Kerry, you're the last person to have this board.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55D'you want to fill in all the blanks for us?
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Dreams, I think, was Gabrielle.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Setting Sun doesn't ring any bells at all.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04The One And Only is Chesney Hawkes, erm,
0:09:04 > 0:09:07and The Most Beautiful Girl In The World I think was Prince.
0:09:08 > 0:09:12It's just trying to work out which is the lowest score.
0:09:12 > 0:09:13I think I'm going to go with
0:09:13 > 0:09:16The Most Beautiful Girl In The World, Prince.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18The Most Beautiful Girl In The World, Prince, says Kerry.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Rob, what do you think?
0:09:20 > 0:09:22I probably would have gone with Dreams, but we'll see.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23She knows more than I do.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25OK, well, let's see if Prince is right,
0:09:25 > 0:09:28and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Prince.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32It's right.
0:09:37 > 0:09:3813.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40APPLAUSE
0:09:42 > 0:09:4513, the best score of the whole pass, very well done, Kerry.
0:09:45 > 0:09:46Well played, Kerry.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Prince had 42 Top 40 hits, and that was his only number one.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52- Was it really?- Yeah, so, very good answer in a pub quiz, that.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55Now, erm, Rob, you're right to trust Kerry because she did go for
0:09:55 > 0:09:58the right one there cos Dreams would have scored a bit more.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00It was Gabrielle, would have scored 20, though.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02The One And Only was Chesney Hawkes.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05I didn't think that was '90s, I would have said '80s if you'd pushed me.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07It scored 47 points, it's a big scorer.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10And the best answer on the board, Setting Sun,
0:10:10 > 0:10:12was by the Chemical Brothers. Well done if you said that,
0:10:12 > 0:10:15- would have scored you 6 points. - Very good, thanks very much.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18We're halfway through the round, let's check those scores.
0:10:18 > 0:10:2013, the best score of that pass, very well done, Kerry.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23That puts you and Rob in a commanding position at this point.
0:10:23 > 0:10:24Then up to 23, Sharron and Alan.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28Up to 41, Bartholomew and Sandra, then up to 76, Alan and Joy.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Alan, you did very well there finding one.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33Joy, good luck.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35We're going to come back down the line,
0:10:35 > 0:10:38can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:40 > 0:10:43OK, we're going to put seven more number one singles from the '90s
0:10:43 > 0:10:45up on the board, and here they come.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00I'll read those one more time.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15Remember, we are looking for the artists who reached number one
0:11:15 > 0:11:17with these hits in the '90s.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Rob, you're going to try and continue Kerry's nice low
0:11:20 > 0:11:24scoring run and find the one the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Rob, what do you do?
0:11:26 > 0:11:29- I'm a process engineer at a premium car manufacturer.- That's fun!
0:11:29 > 0:11:31What's the actual bit that you're in charge of?
0:11:31 > 0:11:34It's working with our product development team to try
0:11:34 > 0:11:37and actually be able to build the vehicles in our existing body shops.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Have you developed an invisible one yet?
0:11:39 > 0:11:43Unfortunately, I don't work for THAT premium car manufacturer.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45- A flying one?- Er, I want to.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48- Oh, that'd be fun, wouldn't it? A flying car?- Yeah, it'd be good.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50That'd be like an aeroplane, wouldn't it?
0:11:50 > 0:11:51LAUGHTER
0:11:51 > 0:11:54An aeroplane would be good!
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Er, yeah, OK, very good.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58Now, then, where are you going to go?
0:11:59 > 0:12:03I recognise a few, but because of Kerry's good first round I'm going
0:12:03 > 0:12:07to try and go for one that probably should never have been a number one.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Erm, Deeply Dippy, which I think was Right Said Fred.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Deeply Dippy. OK, let's find out if that is by Right Said Fred.
0:12:13 > 0:12:14There's your red line,
0:12:14 > 0:12:17if you get below that you're through to the next round.
0:12:17 > 0:12:18Right Said Fred, said Rob.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21Let's see how many of our 100 said Right Said Fred.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25It's right.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27There we are, you're through.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29That did exactly what it needed to do, not a lot more.
0:12:29 > 0:12:3147, takes your total up to 60, Rob.
0:12:31 > 0:12:35Well played, Rob. That was their only number one as well,
0:12:35 > 0:12:38cos I'm Too Sexy was kept off number one by Bryan Adams.
0:12:38 > 0:12:39Thanks very much, Richard.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42Now, then, Alan S, welcome to the show. What do you do?
0:12:42 > 0:12:49Er, I'm an engineer, I work for a Swedish furniture company.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51RICHARD AND XANDER LAUGH
0:12:51 > 0:12:54Oh, God, there are so many, I wonder which one that must be(!)
0:12:54 > 0:12:57That is less cryptic than most of the time when people say that,
0:12:57 > 0:12:59- "a major high street retailer." - Oh, yeah.
0:12:59 > 0:13:03- What other jobs have you had, Alan? - Er, semi-pro football manager.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Wow, that's fun. Where did you do that?
0:13:06 > 0:13:08A few clubs.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Hometown club, Kidsgrove, Newcastle...Town.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Newcastle Town, yeah.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16When did you stop doing that?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Er, I stopped doing it when they sacked me.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20LAUGHTER
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Good stuff. OK, well, listen, there you are, you're on 23.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25The high scorers are still Joy and Alan on 76.
0:13:25 > 0:13:2852 or less will get you through.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33Unfortunately, me mind's gone,
0:13:33 > 0:13:34and, erm,
0:13:34 > 0:13:38Let Me Be Your Fantasy, Oasis, I haven't got a clue.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Let Me Be Your Fantasy by Oasis says Alan.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:13:42 > 0:13:44let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46There's your red line. Maybe you might get below that.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Let's find out.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Bad luck, bad luck. Game attempt but I'm afraid an incorrect answer,
0:13:53 > 0:13:55scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 123.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58The round is not over yet, though, Alan. We'll see what happens.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00You may still get through.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02Sorry, Alan, I'll give you the correct answer to that one
0:14:02 > 0:14:04at the end of the pass, but worth a guess.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- Thanks, Richard. Now, Sandra, welcome.- Hello.
0:14:07 > 0:14:08Good to have you here. What do you do, Sandra?
0:14:08 > 0:14:11I'm an aromatherapist and reflexologist.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Wow! Oh, that's nice.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15And what do you do in your spare time?
0:14:15 > 0:14:19Erm, well, I sing, I've been in a couple of different choirs
0:14:19 > 0:14:23- and I'm also involved in am-dram as well.- Very good, you're on 41.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26The high scorers are Alan and Sharron at the moment on 123,
0:14:26 > 0:14:29so 81 or less sees you through. I think you're going to be fine here.
0:14:29 > 0:14:33I have absolutely no idea on any of them.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37So, phwoar, Back For Good, Robbie Williams.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41I know it's wrong but it's a guess.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44OK, well, you're going to say Robbie Williams.
0:14:44 > 0:14:45Let's see if it's right,
0:14:45 > 0:14:47and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:14:47 > 0:14:48There's your red line.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51If you get below it you are through to the next round.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57Ooh, bad luck. It is incorrect, that scores you 100 points,
0:14:57 > 0:15:00takes your total up to 141, but Richard will tell you
0:15:00 > 0:15:03at the end of the round who did actually sing that.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- You'll be interested to know, I think.- I will do exactly that, yeah.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Now, then, Joy. Right, now,
0:15:08 > 0:15:11this is important. That board behind me
0:15:11 > 0:15:17is remarkably untroubled by quite a few answers in this round.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19So, listen, you're on 76.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22The high scorers are behind you, Sandra and Bartholomew on 141.
0:15:22 > 0:15:28If you can score 64 or less, you're through to the next round.
0:15:28 > 0:15:33That's the good news, the bad news is I don't recognise any of them.
0:15:33 > 0:15:38Erm, my son would have a whole raft of names of groups
0:15:38 > 0:15:40to go for the 1990s.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44So, I shall have to go for The Power
0:15:44 > 0:15:46by the Charlatans.
0:15:46 > 0:15:51- Good band, Joy!- Good band! I just don't think they go with The Power.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54OK, I'm very impressed by that, though. The Charlatans.
0:15:54 > 0:15:55There's your red line, get below that,
0:15:55 > 0:15:57you're through to the second round.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Let's see if the Charlatans sang The Power.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Oh, Joy, I'm sorry. I'm afraid they didn't.
0:16:04 > 0:16:08That scores 100 points, takes your total up to an unbeatable 176.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Yeah, sorry, Joy, but you gave us the pleasure of seeing you say
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- the Charlatans, which genuinely surprised us.- Yeah.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18- And we get to release one more Alan back into the community.- Yeah.
0:16:18 > 0:16:22It's good for the country, isn't it? It's good for the country.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Er, Back For Good, not Robbie Williams,
0:16:24 > 0:16:26but you're not a million miles away.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28It was Take That.
0:16:29 > 0:16:3264 points for that.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Let Me Be Your Fantasy, that's not Oasis, d'you remember that?
0:16:35 > 0:16:37No, I don't. I remember the song.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39- Baby D.- Baby D.
0:16:39 > 0:16:40Would have scored you 10 points.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43And The Power? It's not the Charlatans, should have been.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46- Snap.- Snap. Exactly right.
0:16:46 > 0:16:4818 points. Now, the other three.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next?
0:16:50 > 0:16:53- Manic Street Preachers. - 36 points for that.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56- 2 Become 1?- Spice Girls.- Yes.
0:16:56 > 0:16:57Would have scored you 65.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Very big scorer, that, in fact the biggest scorer on the board.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02And the best scorer on the board, Mr Vain.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05I remember, again, remember the song. Erm...
0:17:05 > 0:17:08They were very much the Charlatans of their time, they were Culture Beat.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10- Culture Beat! - They would have scored you 4 points.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13- Very well done if you said that. - There we go, Culture Beat.
0:17:13 > 0:17:14Thanks very much, Richard.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16We've got to the end of the first round
0:17:16 > 0:17:18but I'm sorry to say our returning pair,
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Joy and Alan...I'm sorry.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23That second board was really tricky there, Joy.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Might you have got any of those?
0:17:25 > 0:17:28- The Spice Girls, but it wasn't enough, was it?- No.
0:17:28 > 0:17:29I'm afraid we have to say goodbye.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31It's been lovely having you on the show.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Thank you so much for playing, Joy and Alan.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36APPLAUSE
0:17:36 > 0:17:39But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Three pairs remain, and obviously at the end of this round,
0:17:46 > 0:17:48we'll be saying goodbye to another pair
0:17:48 > 0:17:49in time for our head-to-head round.
0:17:49 > 0:17:54Rob and Kerry, very well done. Great answers from you, nice low scores.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57And then Alan and Sharron, whoa!
0:17:57 > 0:18:01You owe Sandra and Bartholomew one cos they saved your bacon!
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Oh, and Sandra and Bartholomew, whoa! You owe Alan and Joy one,
0:18:04 > 0:18:06because they saved YOUR bacon, so, er, very well done.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09Anyway, it's going to be a new round and a new category.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two is...
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Classic Literature. Can you decide in your pairs
0:18:17 > 0:18:19who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:18:19 > 0:18:22And whoever's going first please step up to the podium.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26OK, and the question concerns...
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Eponymous Novels. Richard.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33We're going to show you the names of authors.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36We're looking for any novel or children's novel by any of these authors
0:18:36 > 0:18:39that contains a person's name anywhere in its title please.
0:18:39 > 0:18:42- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45So we want a novel written by any of these authors which has
0:18:45 > 0:18:46a character's name in the title.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56There we go. Now, Bartholomew, we come to you first.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59- Another tough one. - It is a tough one.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Trying to avoid the obvious.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03I'm trying to avoid the obvious, erm...
0:19:03 > 0:19:05The...
0:19:05 > 0:19:07The Twits.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10The Twits, says Bartholomew. Let's see if that's right,
0:19:10 > 0:19:12and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said The Twits.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16Absolutely right.
0:19:21 > 0:19:22Good answer, 12, well done!
0:19:22 > 0:19:24APPLAUSE
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Well played.
0:19:28 > 0:19:29Well played, Bartholomew.
0:19:29 > 0:19:33Yeah, The Twits, of course, being the surname of the characters.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- Thank you. Sharron.- Hello. - How are you feeling about this?
0:19:37 > 0:19:41Erm, I do read a lot, but not those sort of books really.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Erm, I'm going to go for one that I think is quite obvious
0:19:44 > 0:19:49so will be quite high scoring. I'm going to go for Matilda.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53Matilda says Sharron. Let's see how many of our 100 people said Matilda.
0:20:00 > 0:20:0141.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03APPLAUSE
0:20:05 > 0:20:06- 41 for Matilda.- Yeah, of course,
0:20:06 > 0:20:11also recently came out as a musical in the West End by Tim Minchin.
0:20:11 > 0:20:12Thanks, Richard. Now, Rob.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16Well, I wish I'd paid a bit more attention to reading
0:20:16 > 0:20:20the books to my son that I do, erm, but I think I'm going to go with
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Very well done, Rob, I see what you've done there.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35Well, 41 our highest score, 12 our low.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37You've passed 41.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41You've passed 12. Very well done indeed, Rob, that's a great answer.
0:20:43 > 0:20:457. Some great scoring over there on the far podium.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47You wouldn't want to get stuck in a glass elevator, would you?
0:20:47 > 0:20:50It's better than getting stuck in a non-glass elevator.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52I often think that, cos I don't like being in lifts,
0:20:52 > 0:20:54but I think if it's a glass one, at least I can see outside.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56It doesn't scare me so much.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58- Maybe.- Not quite like being in a steel box, is it?
0:20:58 > 0:20:59Yeah, I suppose.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Thanks very much. We're halfway through the round.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Let's take a look at those scores. Very well done, Rob.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Best score of the round so far was yours, 7.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09Then up to 12, where we find Bartholomew and Sandra,
0:21:09 > 0:21:11then up to 41 where we find Sharon and Alan.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14So Alan, a good answer from you is what we need in the next pass,
0:21:14 > 0:21:15so try find a nice, low score.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17We're going to come back down the line now.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:23 > 0:21:24OK, now, Kerry...
0:21:24 > 0:21:28We need a novel with someone's name in the title.
0:21:28 > 0:21:29You're on 7.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31The high scores are Alan and Sharon on 41,
0:21:31 > 0:21:33so 33 or less sees you through.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37Well, I really feel like I should know a George Eliot novel,
0:21:37 > 0:21:39but I so don't.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41We've got the whole collection of Roald Dahl at home
0:21:41 > 0:21:44for our little boy and I can think of two.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46One of them, Rob has already said,
0:21:46 > 0:21:49so I'm going to go for Danny, Champion Of The World.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Danny, Champion Of The World, says Kerry.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54There's your red line. Get below that, you are into the head-to-head.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Let's see if Danny, Champion Of The World is right
0:21:56 > 0:21:58and how many people said it.
0:21:59 > 0:22:00It is right.
0:22:04 > 0:22:05Well done, you're through.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Wow, 5!
0:22:08 > 0:22:10APPLAUSE
0:22:11 > 0:22:145 takes your total up to 12.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Well played, Kerry - two good answers in two questions.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20I think that would have been my answer, Danny, Champion Of The World.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Alan?
0:22:22 > 0:22:23Yes, well...
0:22:24 > 0:22:26..we need a good answer, don't we? So...
0:22:28 > 0:22:30..I think I just don't want to get over 100,
0:22:30 > 0:22:32so I'm going to go for Robinson Crusoe.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Robinson Crusoe says Alan. Nice to have a Defoe in there.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39No red line for you as you're the highest scorers.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43There we are, he's right.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48- 29. - APPLAUSE
0:22:50 > 0:22:5229 takes your total up to 70. There we are.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54First published in 1719.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57Daniel Defoe was originally called Daniel Foe.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00He added the "De" cos he thought it made him sound posher.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03So to increase his social standing.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07Thank you, Richard. Now, Sandra, you're on 12.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11You have to score 57 or less. This is going to be a doddle.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14- I must stop saying that to you. - Look what happened last time!
0:23:14 > 0:23:15I think you're going to be fine.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17- Yeah.- Talk us through your thinking.
0:23:18 > 0:23:23I enjoy reading the Bronte novels, so there's the obvious one,
0:23:23 > 0:23:25but I'm not going for that.
0:23:25 > 0:23:26I'm going to go for Shirley.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28Shirley. There's your red line.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30Get below that, you're through to the next round.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.
0:23:34 > 0:23:35It is right.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40You're in the head-to-head. Very well done, Sandra.
0:23:41 > 0:23:422.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44APPLAUSE
0:23:44 > 0:23:48That is a great score, Sandra. 14, very well done.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Yep, by Charlotte Bronte, of course.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56There's six in this round, well done if you got any of these.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Captain Singleton, which is a Daniel Defoe novel.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02Felix Holt, The Radical - that's George Eliot.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05My Uncle Oswald, that's an adult novel by Roald Dahl.
0:24:05 > 0:24:06Well done if you said that.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09And all of these are Daniel Defoe.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11The Further Adventures Of Robinson Crusoe
0:24:11 > 0:24:13would have been a very good answer.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15The Four Voyages Of Captain George Roberts
0:24:15 > 0:24:18and The Serious Reflections Of Robinson Crusoe.
0:24:18 > 0:24:19Thank you very much, Richard.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21At the end of our second round, the pair heading home
0:24:21 > 0:24:25with their score of 70 - I'm sorry to say it's Alan and Sharon.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27You've done very well. Through to the second round.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30- We'll see you again next time and look forward to that.- Thank you.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32- Thanks, Alan, thanks, Sharon. - BOTH: Thanks.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34- APPLAUSE - Thank you.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37For the remaining two pairs, it's now time for the head-to-head.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45Congratulations, Kerry and Rob, Sandra and Bartholomew.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48You are now one step closer to the final and a chance to play
0:24:48 > 0:24:51for our jackpot, which currently stands at £1,000.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54We have to decide who's going to go through to the final and play
0:24:54 > 0:24:57for that money and to do that, you are now going to go head-to-head.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59The difference is you're now allowed to confer before you give
0:24:59 > 0:25:01your answers and the first pair to win two questions
0:25:01 > 0:25:03will be playing for that jackpot.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play it.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:25:16 > 0:25:19- Brothers, Richard.- We'll show you five pictures of famous brothers.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21We need you to tell us their surnames, please.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24OK, let's reveal our five sets of brothers and here they come.
0:25:24 > 0:25:25We've got...
0:25:43 > 0:25:46There we are, five sets of brothers.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Kerry and Rob, you've played best throughout the show,
0:25:49 > 0:25:50so you will go first.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55- WHISPERING:- I don't know A and I don't know E.
0:25:55 > 0:25:59C was in that film we went to see with my dad. What's his name?
0:26:01 > 0:26:03- Bridges or something? - Go for that one, I think.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Erm...
0:26:05 > 0:26:06Struggling a little bit.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11We're going to go for the one we think is the lowest, which is C,
0:26:11 > 0:26:14- the Bridges brothers.- Bridges,
0:26:14 > 0:26:18say Kerry and Rob, Bridges. Now, Sandra and Bartholomew,
0:26:18 > 0:26:20do you want to talk us through the rest of the board?
0:26:20 > 0:26:25Love to. B is the Milibands and D is the Gallaghers.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27A - too young to be the Coen brothers?
0:26:28 > 0:26:31- I don't know what they look like. - I don't know what they look like.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33I've got no idea on A either.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36So which one do you want? B or D?
0:26:36 > 0:26:39They'll both be higher than C, won't they?
0:26:39 > 0:26:40Yeah.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42How about A - Coen brothers?
0:26:42 > 0:26:43I have no idea.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46OK, we'll go for A - Coen brothers.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48You're going to say A - the Coen brothers.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51So we have the Bridges and we have the Coens.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53Rob and Kerry have gone with the Bridges brothers for C.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Let's see if that's right and how many people said Bridges for C.
0:26:59 > 0:27:00It's right.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07- 19. - APPLAUSE
0:27:11 > 0:27:12Good answer, 19.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Now, then, Sandra and Bartholomew have said
0:27:15 > 0:27:17that A is the Coen brothers. Let's see if that's right
0:27:17 > 0:27:20and if it is, how many of our 100 people said that.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24It's right.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30And it wins the points. Very well done indeed. 11.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35Very well done, Bartholomew.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38You had the courage to stick to your point there, well done.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40After one question, it's 1-0 to you.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44- Yeah, very well played. How about that, Sandra?- I'm impressed!
0:27:44 > 0:27:47Of course, they directed True Grit, which starred Jeff Bridges.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49That's Jeff with Beau Bridges, his brother, there.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52- Very rarely a bad film with Jeff Bridges in it.- True.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55You see him in a film, "Yeah, I'll stick with this."
0:27:55 > 0:27:58B is the Milibands. Would have scored you 65 points.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02D, it's the Gallagher brothers, but what do you think they scored?
0:28:02 > 0:28:06I'm guessing that's a high score. That'll be in the late 80s.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09Exactly in the late 80s. 88, that would have scored,
0:28:09 > 0:28:11thrashing the Milibands.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14The last one, I'd be surprised if you knew it.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17They're the two longest-serving brothers ever in Congress.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20They are Sandy and Carl Levin and that is a pointless answer,
0:28:20 > 0:28:23so if you did say that, presumably you're American and visiting.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25Very, very well played.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Thanks very much indeed. So, here is your second question.
0:28:28 > 0:28:32Sandra and Bartholomew, you will have to answer this one first.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35Kerry and Rob, you will have to win this one to stay in the game,
0:28:35 > 0:28:36so very, very best of luck.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38It concerns...
0:28:41 > 0:28:44- Muddled Greeks.- It's going to be anagrams of famous Greeks.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47- OK.- We'll give you five and if you give us the most obscure answer,
0:28:47 > 0:28:49you'll win the points.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52OK, thank you very much indeed. Let's reveal our five famous Greeks
0:28:52 > 0:28:54and here they are in anagram form.
0:29:00 > 0:29:01I'll read those one more time...
0:29:07 > 0:29:10As I say, Sandra and Bartholomew, you will go first this time.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14THEY WHISPER
0:29:22 > 0:29:25We can only really work out two
0:29:25 > 0:29:29and we're going to go for the middle one, Aristotle.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32OK, the middle one, "aisle trot" - Aristotle.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Now then, Kerry and Rob.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37Do you fancy talking us through the board
0:29:37 > 0:29:39and doing a little bit of thinking out loud?
0:29:39 > 0:29:40Not really.
0:29:40 > 0:29:44We only knew two and that was one of them,
0:29:44 > 0:29:46so I think we have to go for the other one,
0:29:46 > 0:29:49- unless you've worked something else out.- No.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52We're going to have to go for the top one, which is Socrates.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56OK, Socrates, say Kerry and Rob. We have Aristotle and Socrates.
0:29:56 > 0:29:58Sandra and Bartholomew went Aristotle.
0:29:58 > 0:30:01Let's see if that's right and if so, how many of our 100 people said it.
0:30:03 > 0:30:05It's right.
0:30:09 > 0:30:11- 23. - APPLAUSE
0:30:15 > 0:30:1823. Now, Kerry and Rob, you have said Socrates.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21Let's see if that's right and how many people said that.
0:30:23 > 0:30:24It's right.
0:30:24 > 0:30:28For you to stay in the game, this has to go lower than 23
0:30:28 > 0:30:30and it does! Well done!
0:30:30 > 0:30:32- APPLAUSE - 14.
0:30:33 > 0:30:34Well done.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36You've broken back - exactly what you needed to do.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39After two questions, it's one-all.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41Good answers from both teams there.
0:30:41 > 0:30:44The next biggest score is "a pose", do you know that one?
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Author of fables.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49- Oh, Aesop.- Aesop, yep.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51Probably not a real person, Aesop.
0:30:51 > 0:30:55Just a name given to anyone who wrote those types of stories. 17 points.
0:30:55 > 0:30:56"Trophy saga"?
0:30:57 > 0:31:00Came up with a famous theory.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02- Pythagoras.- Good, exactly.
0:31:02 > 0:31:03Would have scored you 9 points.
0:31:03 > 0:31:06His theory, of course, was if you take the batteries
0:31:06 > 0:31:08out of the remote control and put them back in it,
0:31:08 > 0:31:10it'll start working again.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13- He was right.- Yeah, absolutely right. Proved time and again.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15And "dour ethos"?
0:31:16 > 0:31:18- No.- Best answer on the board, 1 point. Herodotus.
0:31:18 > 0:31:19Ah!
0:31:20 > 0:31:22Very well done if you said that.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25Thanks very much indeed. OK, it all comes down to our third question.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27This is the decider. It's one apiece at the moment.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29Whoever wins this goes through to the final
0:31:29 > 0:31:31and plays for that jackpot. Best of luck to both pairs.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33It concerns...
0:31:36 > 0:31:38Steven Spielberg, Richard.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41Simply going to show you five clues about film director Steven Spielberg.
0:31:41 > 0:31:45We need the most obscure answer. Best of luck, both teams.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47OK, let's reveal our five clues, and here they come.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08I'll read those one last time...
0:32:22 > 0:32:25There we are - five clues to facts about Spielberg.
0:32:25 > 0:32:26Kerry and Rob, you will go first.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30- WHISPERING:- I don't know his middle name.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32The World War II movie must be Saving Private Ryan.
0:32:32 > 0:32:35The actress who played... Julia Roberts.
0:32:37 > 0:32:38I think probably Julia Roberts.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40Yeah, yeah.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43Um, we are going to go for the actress
0:32:43 > 0:32:48who played Tinkerbell in Hook, which was Julia Roberts.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51Julia Roberts, say Kerry and Rob, Julia Roberts.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53Now, Sandra and Bartholomew.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56- Do you want to talk us through the board?- We can try, can't we?
0:32:56 > 0:32:59The top one is Saving Private Ryan.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01Bottom one - Jaws.
0:33:01 > 0:33:02Bottom one - Jaws
0:33:02 > 0:33:04and don't know his middle name,
0:33:04 > 0:33:08but we're going to go for Michael Crichton, who was the writer.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10OK, Michael Crichton, you're going to go for.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12We have Julia Roberts and Michael Crichton.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Rob and Kerry said Julia Roberts played Tinkerbell.
0:33:15 > 0:33:16Let's see if that's right.
0:33:16 > 0:33:18Let's see how many people said Julia Roberts.
0:33:20 > 0:33:21It's right.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29- 29. - APPLAUSE
0:33:31 > 0:33:3329 for Julia Roberts.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35Meanwhile, Bartholomew and Sandra have said Michael Crichton
0:33:35 > 0:33:39as the author who wrote the novel on which Jurassic Park is based.
0:33:39 > 0:33:42Let's see if that's right and how many people said that.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45It's right.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48If this goes down lower than 29, you're in the final.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50It does, very well done. 19.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52APPLAUSE
0:33:52 > 0:33:54Very well done indeed.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Well done, Sandra and Bartholomew - after three questions,
0:33:56 > 0:33:58you are through to the final, 2-1.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01Very well played. Let's fill in the rest of this board.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03A very, very big scorer at the bottom there.
0:34:03 > 0:34:07The 1975 film, of course, it was Jaws.
0:34:07 > 0:34:1091 points for Jaws, 91.
0:34:10 > 0:34:14At the top, another big score for Saving Private Ryan.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17Would have scored you 47. The best answer on the board,
0:34:17 > 0:34:21which would have seen either team through to the Jackpot Round,
0:34:21 > 0:34:22any idea?
0:34:22 > 0:34:24If I tell you that it's proof
0:34:24 > 0:34:26that everything in the universe is connected?
0:34:26 > 0:34:29The answer that would have seen anyone through to the final is...
0:34:31 > 0:34:32..Allan.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
0:34:34 > 0:34:36- What about that?- 6 points.
0:34:36 > 0:34:37What about that?
0:34:39 > 0:34:44- You!- Yeah, well... It's not me. It's not me, it's the planets.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47- Oh, that's just beautiful.- Isn't it?
0:34:47 > 0:34:49Thanks very much indeed. So the pair leaving us
0:34:49 > 0:34:51at the end of the head-to-head round are Kerry and Rob.
0:34:51 > 0:34:53Slightly against the grain of play, I have to say.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56You've been fantastic the whole way through the show.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58Brilliant low score after brilliant low score and then,
0:34:58 > 0:35:01in the head-to-head, you came up against the immovable object
0:35:01 > 0:35:03that is Sandra and Bartholomew.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05So we say goodbye to you, but we get to see you next time.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08We look forward to that. Kerry and Rob, thanks so much for playing.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10APPLAUSE
0:35:10 > 0:35:12But for Sandra and Bartholomew,
0:35:12 > 0:35:15it's now time for our Pointless Final.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21Congratulations, Sandra and Bartholomew.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24You fought off the competition and won our coveted Pointless Trophy.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32You now have a chance to win our Pointless Jackpot,
0:35:32 > 0:35:36and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £1,000.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39As always, you choose your category for this final round.
0:35:39 > 0:35:40Anything you'd like to see?
0:35:40 > 0:35:43I'd like to see the Bronte sisters again, actually.
0:35:43 > 0:35:45That was quite handy.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47Well, best of luck. Here are your options. Four of them.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49You can choose from one of these.
0:35:56 > 0:36:01- I'd go for one of the bottom two. - I would have gone for Olivers, so...
0:36:01 > 0:36:03- Do you know any gangster films?- No. - None at all?- No.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05SHE LAUGHS
0:36:05 > 0:36:08- Any Belgium?- No. But you don't know any Olivers.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10So it's Belgium or Olivers. Which one?
0:36:11 > 0:36:12Belgium.
0:36:12 > 0:36:16Oh, that's a strong will there!
0:36:16 > 0:36:18OK, Bartholomew is going for Belgium.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20I didn't think anyone would go for Belgium.
0:36:20 > 0:36:24I thought Belgium would stay there for ever. You've got three options.
0:36:24 > 0:36:28We're looking for the capital of any of Belgium's 10 provinces.
0:36:28 > 0:36:32We are looking for any post-war Belgian prime minister.
0:36:32 > 0:36:36We're looking for any player in any squads for Belgium's
0:36:36 > 0:36:38qualifying for the 2014 World Cup.
0:36:38 > 0:36:42So any player who played in any of the qualifying games for the 2014 World Cup.
0:36:42 > 0:36:44So, capitals of the 10 provinces, post-war prime ministers
0:36:44 > 0:36:48or any player in any squad for Belgium's qualifying campaign
0:36:48 > 0:36:49for the World Cup, 2014.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51Very best of luck.
0:36:51 > 0:36:55OK. Now, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:55 > 0:36:59To win the jackpot of £1,000 only one of those answers needs to be pointless.
0:36:59 > 0:37:03Also remember, the answers you provide can come from any of these categories.
0:37:03 > 0:37:06How you spread them across the categories is up to you.
0:37:06 > 0:37:10- Are you ready?- As we'll ever be!- OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:37:10 > 0:37:12- There they are. - Your time starts now.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14- I'm going for footballers. - OK, you carry on.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17Andervilde.
0:37:17 > 0:37:20- Derrida, maybe.- Right. Marvellous.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23- You could think of some provinces of...- No!
0:37:24 > 0:37:26I'm going to say...
0:37:26 > 0:37:28- Safari.- OK.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30Um...
0:37:30 > 0:37:33Any of those I have no idea on any of those.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35SHE LAUGHS
0:37:37 > 0:37:39Apart from that, I know all the obvious ones.
0:37:39 > 0:37:44- Yeah, there's quite a lot of obvious ones.- Christian Benteke.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46No, I think... That might be...
0:37:48 > 0:37:50Yeah? Whatever you decide.
0:37:50 > 0:37:53Maybe someone else.
0:37:56 > 0:38:00- I can't think of any footballers. - OK, Thibaut Courtois.
0:38:00 > 0:38:04OK, you've got your answers. We'll stop the clock.
0:38:04 > 0:38:08- What are those answers going to be? - Thibaut Courtois. - Thibaut Courtois.
0:38:08 > 0:38:11- Safari.- Safari.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13- And Andervilde.- Andervilde.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16- I need Andervilde's first name. - Gregory.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18- Gregory?- I don't know.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21You don't know. So you've gone for Gregory?!
0:38:21 > 0:38:24- It rings a bell! - OK, it might be Gregory.
0:38:24 > 0:38:28- Of those three which is your best shot at a pointless?- Safari.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32- Safari we'll put last. Which is your least likely?- Courtois.
0:38:32 > 0:38:33Courtois we'll put first.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35OK, let's pop those answers upon the board,
0:38:35 > 0:38:37and here they are in that order.
0:38:42 > 0:38:43Well, very best of luck.
0:38:43 > 0:38:47The first answer was Thibaut Courtois.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50Now, this was the one you thought least likely to be pointless.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52What if this were to be pointless and you won that £1,000.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55- Sandra, what would you do with your share of that?- My share?
0:38:55 > 0:38:59I would use it towards... a holiday next year.
0:38:59 > 0:39:01It's our 25th wedding anniversary,
0:39:01 > 0:39:03so we are going away and it would go towards that.
0:39:03 > 0:39:08- Bartholomew?- I'm doing trek of Everest base camp next year.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11- Are you?- I need to pay some expenses there.- Wow. Well done, you.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13- It'll be good.- Best of luck. Three answers on the board.
0:39:13 > 0:39:15Let's hope at least one of those is pointless.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19So your first answer, Thibaut Courtois.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22All the answers you've given are players who are in the Belgian squad
0:39:22 > 0:39:26for any of their qualifying matches for the 2014 World Cup finals.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29OK, Thibaut Courtois, let's see if that's right,
0:39:29 > 0:39:31and if it's pointless you will win £1,000.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33Let's find out how me people said Thibaut Courtois.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37It's right.
0:39:37 > 0:39:39That was the first thing it had to be.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41The next thing has to do is go down to 0.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43If it does that you leave with £1,000 between you.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46Going down into single figures. It's getting exciting.
0:39:46 > 0:39:47Still going down...
0:39:47 > 0:39:49- One! - APPLAUSE
0:39:49 > 0:39:50Ohhhh!
0:39:56 > 0:39:59Good answer! Very good answer.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02This bodes very well for your two subsequent answers.
0:40:02 > 0:40:04Let's hope at least one of those is pointless.
0:40:06 > 0:40:07Two more chances to win the jackpot.
0:40:07 > 0:40:12The next answer was Gregory Andervilde.
0:40:12 > 0:40:13Again, it has to be correct
0:40:13 > 0:40:15and has to be pointless for you to win the jackpot of £1,000.
0:40:15 > 0:40:19Let's find out from you people said Gregory Andervilde.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Oh, bad luck!
0:40:23 > 0:40:25Bad luck, an incorrect answer,
0:40:25 > 0:40:28so everything is now riding on your third and final answer.
0:40:28 > 0:40:31The answer she thought was probably your best shot at a pointless answer.
0:40:31 > 0:40:32Safari.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36OK, let's find out.
0:40:36 > 0:40:42For £1,000, how many people said Safari was a player in any of the Belgian squads
0:40:42 > 0:40:46in any of their qualifying games for the 2014 World Cup?
0:40:46 > 0:40:47Good luck.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50Oh, no, bad luck!
0:40:50 > 0:40:52APPLAUSE
0:40:56 > 0:41:00Oh, bad luck. To have one on your first answer.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02I'm really sorry. Two incorrect answers there.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04Richard will tell us shortly why they are incorrect.
0:41:04 > 0:41:07But you didn't find that all-important pointless answer,
0:41:07 > 0:41:09so you don't win today's jackpot of £1,000.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11That rolls over on to the next show.
0:41:11 > 0:41:15But we've enjoyed having you on the show and you've done so well and consistently.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18And of course you get to take home a Pointless Trophy, so well done.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21APPLAUSE
0:41:21 > 0:41:24Yeah, that's very unlucky. One point for Courtois -
0:41:24 > 0:41:27there must be one mad keen Chelsea fan amongst our 100, I'm afraid.
0:41:27 > 0:41:32You gave the name Andervilde and there are two footballers who share
0:41:32 > 0:41:34similar names but not quite the same.
0:41:34 > 0:41:36There's Gregory van der Wiel of the Netherlands,
0:41:36 > 0:41:39- and Toby Alderweireld. - That's who I meant.
0:41:39 > 0:41:41Who is Belgian and would have been a pointless answer.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43AUDIENCE: Awww! You'll kick yourself more
0:41:43 > 0:41:46when you see some pointless answers on that category.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49You won't kick yourself much on the pointless answers of the first two categories.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Very well done to anyone at home who got these.
0:41:55 > 0:41:58All of those would have been pointless. Well done if you said any of those.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02I can't believe you didn't get any of these guys(!)
0:42:02 > 0:42:03LAUGHTER
0:42:04 > 0:42:07If you're going to get any, you might have got Guy Verhofstadt at home,
0:42:07 > 0:42:13because he was prime minister until 2008, something like that.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15Let's take a look at these footballers,
0:42:15 > 0:42:17because there are names you will know up here.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20SANDRA GROANS Jan Vertonghen a pointless answer.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Kevin Mirallas was a pointless answer.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25Moussen Dembele, who we still love at Fulham very much,
0:42:25 > 0:42:28was a pointless answer. There's Toby Alderweireld as well.
0:42:28 > 0:42:32You could also have had Axel Witsel, Daniel Van Buyten, Dries Mertens,
0:42:32 > 0:42:36Jelle Van Damme, who Southampton fans will remember, or Steven Defour.
0:42:36 > 0:42:38So there were plenty of well-known players out there.
0:42:38 > 0:42:42Really unlucky, but well played. You've been great fun as well.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45And Behrang Safari, your third answer, he plays for Sweden.
0:42:45 > 0:42:49- Oh!- Unfortunately. He's Iranian born, plays for Sweden.
0:42:49 > 0:42:52So you were very unlucky for three different reasons, I would say.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54Bad luck. Unfortunately, we say goodbye.
0:42:54 > 0:42:56It's been brilliant having you the show. Thank you so much.
0:42:56 > 0:42:59Sandra and Bartholomew, great contestants.
0:42:59 > 0:43:00APPLAUSE
0:43:00 > 0:43:03Well, Sandra and Bartholomew didn't win our jackpot today
0:43:03 > 0:43:04and it rolls over.
0:43:04 > 0:43:08So on the next show we will be playing for £2,000.
0:43:08 > 0:43:09AUDIENCE: Oooh!
0:43:09 > 0:43:11Join us next time, see if someone can win it.
0:43:11 > 0:43:15- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.- ..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
