0:00:14 > 0:00:15APPLAUSE
0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:24 > 0:00:28the game where we aim for the obscure and we ignore the obvious.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33APPLAUSE
0:00:33 > 0:00:35And couple number one.
0:00:35 > 0:00:39Hi, I'm Emyr, I'm from Cardiff and this is my friend Claire,
0:00:39 > 0:00:42- she's from Barry Island. - And couple number two.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hello there, I'm Barbara, this is my husband Chris
0:00:44 > 0:00:46and we're from Collingham in Nottinghamshire.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Couple number three.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Hello, my name's Howard, I'm from Christchurch in Dorset
0:00:50 > 0:00:53and this is my brother-in-law Gwilym from Milton Keynes.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55And finally couple number four.
0:00:55 > 0:00:56Hi, my name's Laura, I'm from Bristol
0:00:56 > 0:00:58and this is my friend Amanda from London.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01And these are today's contestants.
0:01:01 > 0:01:02APPLAUSE
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Thanks very much all of you,
0:01:04 > 0:01:06we'll find out more about you later as the show goes on.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12His facts speak for themselves, but good luck shutting him up anyway,
0:01:12 > 0:01:14it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Hiya. Hi, everyone.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20APPLAUSE
0:01:20 > 0:01:22- Hi, how are you?- I'm very well, thank you.- Excellent.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Again we keep giving away the jackpot.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- Careless.- It is careless, isn't it?- It is.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Again, we had a proper good finish last time as well
0:01:30 > 0:01:33because the show before went 2 points, 1 point, pointless.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36- Last time we went wrong answer, 1 point to pointless.- It was perfect.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39It's not bad going. That's the way to win the jackpot, everybody.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41That's how we like to see it done.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44We've only got one returning pair from that show, it's Gwil and Howard.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Got knocked out in Round Two last time
0:01:46 > 0:01:48so hopefully we'll see a little bit more of them this time.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51- Should be a cracker. - Excellent. Thanks, Richard.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Now all our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people
0:01:54 > 0:01:57before the show. Today's contestants are looking for a pointless answer,
0:01:57 > 0:01:59that being an answer that none of our 100 people gave,
0:01:59 > 0:02:02and each time that happens we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05So as you've just gathered, David and Nick won the jackpot last time
0:02:05 > 0:02:09so today's jackpot starts back again at £1,000.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13APPLAUSE
0:02:15 > 0:02:18The pair with the highest score at the end of the round will be
0:02:18 > 0:02:22eliminated and there is to be no conferring during the round itself.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Our first category today...
0:02:26 > 0:02:30Cinema. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first?
0:02:30 > 0:02:32And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38OK, and the question concerns...
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Movie Characters. Richard.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45On each pass we're going to show you the names of seven movie characters
0:02:45 > 0:02:47and the actor who played them, we need you to tell us
0:02:47 > 0:02:50the name of the film they appeared in, please. There's going to be seven
0:02:50 > 0:02:53on each pass, going to be 14 in all to have a go at at home.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56As you'll spot as the round goes on, all the films have something else
0:02:56 > 0:02:58in common, they're all directed either by Alfred Hitchcock,
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Steven Spielberg or Martin Scorsese.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04So we're looking for the films in which these characters
0:03:04 > 0:03:08played by the actors also on the board appear.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Here's our first board of seven.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28I'll read those all again.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44Now then, Emyr and Claire, you all drew lots before the show
0:03:44 > 0:03:46and today you are going to go first.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48- Emyr, I'm saying your name right, aren't I?- Yes, yes.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52- You say it again.- Emyr.- But he says it beautifully.- That's nice.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- It's the R.- "Emyrrr".- "Emyrrr". - I'm going to try and see if I can remember that.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- What do you do, Emyr? - I'm a civil servant in Cardiff.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Can I ask which department of the civil service?
0:04:01 > 0:04:05No, I can't, I can't, I will not put you on the spot like that, Emyr.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Thank you.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10- Another spy. We get a lot of spies on the show, don't we?- It's fun.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12- Extraordinary. - You know, if I was a spy...
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Normally people say, "I work for the civil service,
0:04:15 > 0:04:18"I can't tell you what." But I just wouldn't even say I worked for
0:04:18 > 0:04:21the civil service. I would say, "Me? I work in... I'm a bank manager."
0:04:21 > 0:04:23- Import-export?- Import-export.- Yeah.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25And what do you do in your spare time, Emyr?
0:04:25 > 0:04:27I like to travel.
0:04:27 > 0:04:32I also love to watch my Carry On movies.
0:04:32 > 0:04:37- Erm, I do some research on my family tree as well.- How's that gone?
0:04:37 > 0:04:42I've gone... On my dad's side, I've gone back as far as the early 1700s.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45See, that's exciting, isn't it?
0:04:45 > 0:04:49Well, I mean, the nearest I've got is basically...
0:04:49 > 0:04:52not really know what they do, just as far back as I can go.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56- Do you know where they lived? Have you found that out?- In Norfolk.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00- In Norfolk?- Yeah, in the Aylsham area.- Fantastic.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Now, Emyr, what are you going to go for from this board?
0:05:04 > 0:05:05Erm, it's a tough one.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09The only one that I know is...
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Norman Bates, Anthony Perkins.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13Psycho.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15- Psycho...- Yes.- ..said Emyr.
0:05:15 > 0:05:16OK, let's see if that's right
0:05:16 > 0:05:20and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Psycho.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22It's right.
0:05:24 > 0:05:2667.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28APPLAUSE
0:05:28 > 0:05:30I tell you what, it's a high score, Emyr,
0:05:30 > 0:05:33but you might be taking one of the answers off the board that
0:05:33 > 0:05:36everyone else knows, so tactically not a bad thing to go for. 67.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39Exactly, Psycho was Hitchcock's last black and white film, Psycho.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40He could've done it in colour,
0:05:40 > 0:05:43he was worried the murder might be a bit too gruesome in colour.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45- Oh, was that what it was? - Yeah.- It does work,
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- the effect of it in black and white. It is quite creepy.- Famously,
0:05:48 > 0:05:52it's chocolate sauce going down the plughole in that film, not blood.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54Interesting.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Barbara, welcome to the show. Great to have you here.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59- From Nottinghamshire?- That's right.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02And what do you do in Nottinghamshire?
0:06:02 > 0:06:05I am an assistant practice manager in my local GP surgery.
0:06:05 > 0:06:10- That sounds challenging, I knew that because I'm a son of a GP.- Right.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14- So I know how hard work that is.- You know that we're the hardest workers.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16- I do happen to know that. - And the GPs...
0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Yeah. Oh, they have it easy, they have it easy.- Definitely.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21It's the practice managers that are carrying those things.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23What do you do in your spare time?
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- You don't really get much spare time, I happen to know as well.- No.
0:06:26 > 0:06:27But what do you fill it with?
0:06:27 > 0:06:30No, you're right, I don't get a lot of spare time,
0:06:30 > 0:06:34but the usual thing, like reading and sewing and knitting, and I too
0:06:34 > 0:06:38do my family tree as well but I haven't touched it for a while.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42- Did you get as far back as the early 1700s, though?- Oh, yes.- Oh, yes!
0:06:42 > 0:06:46- Oh, yes.- Oh, and beyond?- Oh, yes. - Where did you go?
0:06:46 > 0:06:49- I went to mid-1600s. - Oh, that's good.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53Well, Barbara, what about these? It's quite tough, that board.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57Yeah, I like the top one but I gather I can't go for that one.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59- Yep, you'd gather right.- Yep.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02So it's going to be a guess and I hope
0:07:02 > 0:07:08I don't get into trouble about it but Jake La Motta, Godfather?
0:07:08 > 0:07:09The Godfather?
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Jake La Motta, The Godfather, says Barbara,
0:07:12 > 0:07:15let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it if it is.
0:07:17 > 0:07:18I'm sorry, Barbara.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20It's really sweet, both you
0:07:20 > 0:07:23and Chris did an identical thing at the same time, you both went...
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Just like that then. That's nice.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Anyways, it's an incorrect answer, I'm afraid.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29That scores you 100 points.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32It may not be the last 100 points of this round so, yes,
0:07:32 > 0:07:33don't be too disconsolate.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36Yes, I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass, Barbara.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40Thanks very much. Now then, Howard. Welcome back.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Our only returning pair, you and Gwil.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44Tell us what happened last time.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49We got a question on new countries to join the UN and we did
0:07:49 > 0:07:52very well but sadly not quite as well as our fellow contestants.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Yeah, it wasn't bad. They were nice low scores.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57- I think you were on 29 or something. - Yeah, that's right.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00- That's a very low score to be leaving.- Just got squeezed out.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02That just shows the kind of calibre of contestant
0:08:02 > 0:08:04- we had on the last show.- Exactly.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Do you remember those heady days, last show?
0:08:07 > 0:08:08- They were good, weren't they?- Yeah.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11On this one, there's promise here, but 67 and 100...
0:08:11 > 0:08:14- Well, there's always promise, Richard.- You would've had trouble
0:08:14 > 0:08:17on the last show, they were wonderful, weren't they?
0:08:17 > 0:08:20- They were absolutely.- Very clever. - Yeah.- I miss them.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22I wonder what they're doing now. I guess they're probably
0:08:22 > 0:08:25- captains of industry these days, aren't they?- I don't know,
0:08:25 > 0:08:27I know what Gwil and Howard are doing, but apart from them
0:08:27 > 0:08:29I don't know what any of them are up to.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32- Do you guys keep in touch?- Not much, no.- Haven't kept in touch, no.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34You lose touch after a while, don't you?
0:08:34 > 0:08:36- For a while you ring and write and then...- They were bright.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38They were...
0:08:38 > 0:08:39They were going places, that lot.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43- Just extraordinary intelligence. - Yeah.- And charm.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Oh, well. Today! Today's show.
0:08:46 > 0:08:51- Howard, what are you going to go for?- Erm, I knew Psycho.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Erm...
0:08:53 > 0:08:56I'm pretty sure I know a couple of others
0:08:56 > 0:09:01but I think I'm going to go for Elliott,
0:09:01 > 0:09:04which I think is ET.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06ET, says Howard. ET.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Let's see if that's right
0:09:08 > 0:09:11and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said ET.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14It's right.
0:09:14 > 0:09:1867 is our lowest score and you pass that.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Still going. 23, Howard.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22APPLAUSE
0:09:23 > 0:09:28- That is a very good answer. - That's a very good answer, Howard.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Yes, I suspect some people at home won't have got it and the second
0:09:30 > 0:09:33you say that it's ET, everyone will remember,
0:09:33 > 0:09:34Elliott and all that stuff.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Now, Amanda, welcome to the show, great to have you here.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38What do you do?
0:09:38 > 0:09:41- I work in HR for a software company. - And what are your hobbies?
0:09:41 > 0:09:43What do you like doing when you're not doing that?
0:09:43 > 0:09:46I like reading, watching TV and I love eating out,
0:09:46 > 0:09:49I like going to new restaurants, trying different foods.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53Very good indeed, and do you research that quite assiduously?
0:09:53 > 0:09:57There are some restaurants that I do aim to go to
0:09:57 > 0:10:00but otherwise I can just go where the wind takes me.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03- And whose idea was it to come on the show?- It was mine.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05And Laura, the obvious choice?
0:10:05 > 0:10:07You have to say yes obviously, she's standing right next to you.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11- Yes, she was with me when I decided. - OK, very good indeed.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14- Amanda, you're the last person to have this board.- Yes.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18- Anything left there for you?- Not really, not really my genre of film.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20For the Leonardo DiCaprio film,
0:10:20 > 0:10:23there's a couple of films it could be.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26So I'm thinking maybe Gangs Of New York or The Departed,
0:10:26 > 0:10:29and the others I don't really have a clue.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32I think I'm going to go for Gangs Of New York.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35OK, Gangs Of New York, says Amanda, for Amsterdam Vallon.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see
0:10:37 > 0:10:40how many of our 100 people said Gangs Of New York.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44It's right. Very well done indeed.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50Look at that, best score of the round.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52APPLAUSE
0:10:52 > 0:10:54Great answer and great score. 19, Amanda.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59That's a terrific answer, Amanda. Very well played. Well worked out.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Leonardo DiCaprio's first agent tried to get him to change his name,
0:11:02 > 0:11:04he said, "Look, people are not going to really go with
0:11:04 > 0:11:08"Leonardo DiCaprio." He suggested Lenny Williams.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11- No.- Now let's look through the rest of this board.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Erm, Jake La Motta, not in The Godfather.
0:11:15 > 0:11:20He's the boxer in Raging Bull, would've scored you 38.
0:11:20 > 0:11:25Tommy DeVito, Joe Pesci one? It's a very famous Joe Pesci performance.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27- It's, "Am I funny?" That one. - Goodfellas.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Goodfellas, thank you very much. Are you laughing?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32That would've scored you 18 points.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36Newland Archer, Daniel Day-Lewis, is Age Of Innocence.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38That's a tough one, 2 points.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41And at the bottom there, it's turned up a few times, this, Sean Connery
0:11:41 > 0:11:44was in Hitchcock's Marnie, and that was his character there, 3 points.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47So Age Of Innocence, the Daniel Day-Lewis one's the best answer.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50We're halfway through the round, let's take a look at those scores.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Well done, Amanda, the best score of the pass was yours, 19,
0:11:53 > 0:11:56putting you and Laura in a very strong position at this stage.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Then up to 23, where we find Howard and Gwil.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Then up to 67, Emyr and Claire,
0:12:02 > 0:12:04and then up to 100, Barbara and Chris.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07That was a tough board. Let's hope the next one's less tough.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Chris, it may well not have been the last 100 points scored.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Let's hope the next one isn't yours, though!
0:12:12 > 0:12:15We need a low score from you but best of luck with that, Chris.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17We're going to come back down the line now,
0:12:17 > 0:12:20can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:12:21 > 0:12:25OK, let's put seven more characters up on the board, and here they come.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26We've got...
0:12:41 > 0:12:43I'll read those all one last time.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57There we are. Now then, Laura, welcome to Pointless.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Great to have you here, what do you do, Laura?
0:12:59 > 0:13:03I work in marketing and event management for accountancy events.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05And what are your hobbies?
0:13:05 > 0:13:07I quite enjoy running, generally keeping fit,
0:13:07 > 0:13:10- and I sing in a choir as well. - What sort of choir is it?
0:13:10 > 0:13:13We're quite a kind of young fun choir, we do a bit of Disney,
0:13:13 > 0:13:17a bit of Queen, and we all kind of teach each other songs as well,
0:13:17 > 0:13:20so it's all very light-hearted and good fun.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Excellent. Been such an explosion of these since Gareth Malone.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25- Definitely.- What an amazing thing. - We were there first, though.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29- Were you?- Yeah.- Got in there ahead of the Malone.- Yep.- I like that.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Because, I mean, it's fun, it's always surprisingly good fun.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34It is, and it's a really great bunch of people as well, we all
0:13:34 > 0:13:37get on really well and we all go out together as well, so it's great.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Very good. Now then, you're the first person to have this board.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Again, it's quite a tough board.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45- It is, it's definitely better than the last one.- Yeah.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47I really didn't know anything from the last one
0:13:47 > 0:13:51and I've got an inkling for two of these but I'm not 100% on either.
0:13:51 > 0:13:57I think I'm going to go for Dr Alan Grant and Jurassic Park.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00Jurassic Park, says Laura, for Dr Alan Grant.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02Now, there you are on 19, Chris and Barbara,
0:14:02 > 0:14:05our high scorers on 100, so 80 or less sees you through.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08There's your red line, let's see if Jurassic Park's right,
0:14:08 > 0:14:10let's see how many people said it.
0:14:12 > 0:14:13It is right.
0:14:17 > 0:14:1839.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20APPLAUSE
0:14:20 > 0:14:2439 takes you up to 58 and sees you comfortably through.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Well played, Laura, safe and sound into Round Two.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29Based on Michael Crichton's novel, he was paid 2 million
0:14:29 > 0:14:33for the novel before it was even published, just on the idea alone.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35- Good work.- By the film people. - What a pitch that must've been.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39- It shows what you can do if you have a good idea, doesn't it?- Yeah, yeah.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43Now then, Gwil. Welcome back.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45- Thank you.- Remind us what you do, Gwil.
0:14:45 > 0:14:49I am a freelance management consultant.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53That's just the tip of the Gwil iceberg. Tip of the Gwilberg.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Now, what do you like getting up to in your spare time?
0:14:56 > 0:15:00Mostly...I like to do as little as possible.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04Oh, that's good, it's a much overlooked pastime.
0:15:04 > 0:15:08I get on with the guitar quite well, I'm self-taught on the guitar,
0:15:08 > 0:15:11self-taught on the piano. I want to learn the violin.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13- I'm a little bit of a... - You really do?
0:15:13 > 0:15:16- You want to learn it?- I do.- How far have you gone with this wanting?
0:15:16 > 0:15:19I'm looking for a violin to purchase, that's how far I've got!
0:15:19 > 0:15:21OK.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24If you want to become a pop star, I've got a good name for you.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26- Let's hear it.- Gwil.i.am.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28LAUGHTER
0:15:29 > 0:15:32OK, now then, Gwil, what are you going to go for?
0:15:32 > 0:15:37I am in the embarrassing position of hardly knowing any of these.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39I'm going to go for...
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Celie Johnson and Ghost.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46- Ghost.- Yeah.- OK, that's a bit of a guess, is it?
0:15:46 > 0:15:48- It's a slight bit of a guess, yeah.- OK.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Well, there is your red line.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53If you can get below that, you're in Round Two.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Let's see how many of our 100 said Ghost if it's right.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Bad luck, Gwil, I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,
0:16:02 > 0:16:05scores you the maximum of 100 points. 123, your total.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08- Sorry, Gwil, she was Oda Mae Brown in Ghost...- Of course!
0:16:08 > 0:16:12- ..and not by any of those directors either.- Oh, I thought Spielberg, OK.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16- Thanks very much indeed. Now, oh, Chris, you see? I told you.- You did.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18- What just happened there? - Yeah.- There we are.
0:16:18 > 0:16:23So you now have a target of 22 or less. Welcome to the show, Chris.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25- Thank you.- Great to have you here, what do you do?
0:16:25 > 0:16:28I'm sort of semi-retired but I do casual work
0:16:28 > 0:16:32and some of that I work at the surgery for Barbara.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35And what other things do you fill your retirement time with?
0:16:35 > 0:16:39I have an allotment, as most retired people tend to go for,
0:16:39 > 0:16:42- and I'm a beekeeper.- Oh, that's fun, how long have you done that for?
0:16:42 > 0:16:46- Five years now. - And...was it quite easy?
0:16:46 > 0:16:49Or is it quite a steep learning curve?
0:16:49 > 0:16:52There is a very steep learning curve when they die, yes,
0:16:52 > 0:16:55- because you've got quite an investment just disappear.- Right.
0:16:55 > 0:16:56And that's happened?
0:16:56 > 0:17:00Oh, a couple of times, yeah, couple of times over the years, I'm afraid.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04- Not having a good time, beekeepers, at the moment.- No.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07OK, you've still got quite a long way to go on this round as well,
0:17:07 > 0:17:09you have to score 22 or less.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Is there anything on that board you think will do it for you?
0:17:12 > 0:17:16It's that 22, that's the difficult bit, because there's two I know
0:17:16 > 0:17:18but...
0:17:18 > 0:17:20I think I may have to gamble here.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23Because it's Tippi Hedren, I'm going to go for The Birds.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25The Birds, says Chris.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27OK, well, let's see if The Birds is right.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30If it is, will it get you below that red line?
0:17:32 > 0:17:34It's right. Well done, Chris.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Is it going to get you down?
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Ooh, not quite, 36 it scores.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41APPLAUSE
0:17:41 > 0:17:45136 is your total.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Not a bad answer at all there, Chris. Well played.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Hitchcock was frightened of eggs, that was his big...
0:17:50 > 0:17:52- Frightened of eggs? - Yeah, he hated them.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55He thought yolk coming out of an egg was worse than blood.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58It's worse than chocolate sauce, certainly.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01- Ah, really? Frightened of eggs?- Yeah.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04- I mean, a man who looks not unlike an egg.- He does.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08Famously he would order like three main courses and three desserts when
0:18:08 > 0:18:11he went to a restaurant, he'd have three steaks and three ice-creams.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15- No eggs, though. - No eggs. Interesting.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18- Now, Claire.- Hi. - Welcome to the show.- Thank you.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Great to have you here, what do you do, Claire?
0:18:20 > 0:18:23- I'm a civil servant as well. - In Barry?- In Cardiff.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27- In Cardiff, and you work alongside Emyr?- Yes, we do, yes.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30- What do you do in your spare time? - I do loads of different things.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34I really enjoy going to live concerts,
0:18:34 > 0:18:38- particularly I quite like musicals and stuff like that, so... - Fair enough.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Now then, Claire, 136 the high score from Chris and Barbara behind you.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44You have to score 68 or less.
0:18:44 > 0:18:49It's not the easiest board but you don't look too bothered by it.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52No, there are a few on there that I don't know,
0:18:52 > 0:18:55I don't know the James Stewart one, I really should.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58I think that Captain Miller is probably Saving Private Ryan.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02The Jack Nicholson one, again, I should know that and I don't.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05Brody, I think that's Jaws, but I'm going to go for the last one,
0:19:05 > 0:19:08Whoopi Goldberg, and I think that was The Color Purple.
0:19:08 > 0:19:09The Color Purple.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14There's your red line. If you get below that with The Color Purple,
0:19:14 > 0:19:16you are in Round Two. Let's see if it's right and, if it is,
0:19:16 > 0:19:18let's see how many people said it.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Yes!
0:19:22 > 0:19:26Very well done. That did everything it needed to do for you, Claire.
0:19:26 > 0:19:2712.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30CHEERING
0:19:30 > 0:19:33The best score of the round in fact there, very well done indeed,
0:19:33 > 0:19:3479 is your total.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37Very well played, Claire. It was only her second movie
0:19:37 > 0:19:42and she received a nomination for Best Actress at the Oscars for that.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Now, you're right about Saving Private Ryan,
0:19:44 > 0:19:48that is Captain Miller, Tom Hanks. Would've been a bigger scorer though,
0:19:48 > 0:19:49would've scored you 20.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53Brody, you're right as well, was Jaws, again a bigger scorer,
0:19:53 > 0:19:55would've scored you 43.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58Now, these other two, Frank Costello, Jack Nicholson,
0:19:58 > 0:20:02that's the film Amanda mentioned just now, The Departed,
0:20:02 > 0:20:04would've scored you 3 points.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07And right at the top there, the James Stewart, it's a Hitchcock film.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10- It's Vertigo.- It is Vertigo, yep. Would've scored you 4 points,
0:20:10 > 0:20:12so Frank Costello is the best answer on the board.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Thanks very much indeed.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17So at the end of our first round the pair who will be heading home
0:20:17 > 0:20:21with their high score of 136, I'm afraid, Chris and Barbara.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22- Yeah, tough round, though.- It was.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25Hard to remember the character names but that was a nice,
0:20:25 > 0:20:28low score on the second pass, I'm afraid just not quite
0:20:28 > 0:20:30low enough to keep you in the game. We'll look forward to seeing you
0:20:30 > 0:20:32next time but thanks very much meantime.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34- Chris and Barbara. - Thank you.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36APPLAUSE
0:20:36 > 0:20:39But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45And so we're down to just three pairs and obviously
0:20:45 > 0:20:48at the end of this round we'll have to say goodbye to another pair
0:20:48 > 0:20:50in time for our head-to-head round.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Well, Gwil and Howard, a little bit lucky there, I'd say,
0:20:53 > 0:20:57- just a little bit lucky.- Very lucky, yes.- Great answer from you, Claire.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00Fantastic, The Color Purple, best answer of the round.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Second best was yours Amanda, Gangs Of New York, so very well played.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Yeah, Gwil and Howard, need to pull your socks up a little bit.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08A little bit.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Remember you represent the last show, those guys, remember?
0:21:10 > 0:21:14Best of luck to all three pairs, our category for Round Two is...
0:21:16 > 0:21:18It's Cricket.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first?
0:21:20 > 0:21:23And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:21:31 > 0:21:35to name as many of the 2013 Ashes cricketers as they could.
0:21:35 > 0:21:372013 Ashes cricketers.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Yeah, we're looking for anyone who played in any of
0:21:40 > 0:21:43the summer Ashes test between England and Australia in 2013,
0:21:43 > 0:21:46that's any of the five tests between June and August 2013, please.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50Anyone who played in any of those matches. Very best of luck.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53- Thanks very much indeed. Now then, Emyr.- Ooh.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Oh, really, not good?
0:21:55 > 0:21:58No, watching cricket is like watching paint dry for me,
0:21:58 > 0:22:01so not a good subject for me.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Erm...
0:22:04 > 0:22:08I'll have a think. Erm...Graham Edwards.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11- Ooh, Graham Edwards. - ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:22:11 > 0:22:14- He was a Glamorgan player from the '30s.- Must be, must be.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Graham Edwards, let's see if that's right
0:22:17 > 0:22:21and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26Bad luck, Emyr. I'm afraid an incorrect answer,
0:22:26 > 0:22:28scoring you the maximum of 100 points.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31- Can't believe he didn't make the Test team, can you?- No.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33After the county season he had as well.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36- He was knocking in runs for fun, wasn't he?- Yeah, yeah.- For Middlesex.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40- Yeah.- Didn't make it. Is that a completely made-up name, Emyr?- Yeah.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42LAUGHTER
0:22:42 > 0:22:45There is actually a Graham Edwards cricketer,
0:22:45 > 0:22:49a Zimbabwean called Graham Edwards but, yeah, not, er...
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Not playing in the Ashes 2013.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55- Anyway, Howard.- Yes.- Howard.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59Yeah, cricket, I follow cricket a little bit, not that much.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03I think there's an Aussie batsman, maybe the captain even,
0:23:03 > 0:23:05called Michael Clarke.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Michael Clarke. Michael Clarke, says Howard,
0:23:07 > 0:23:10let's see how many of our 100 people said Michael Clarke.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14It's right.
0:23:18 > 0:23:2010.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22CHEERING
0:23:22 > 0:23:24Very well played, Howard.
0:23:24 > 0:23:2510 for Michael Clarke.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31Yeah, terrific player, terrific captain and a terrific answer,
0:23:31 > 0:23:33- well played.- Thanks very much.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36- Now then, Amanda.- Yes.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Amanda, how's this for you?
0:23:38 > 0:23:40I don't think I've ever seen a cricket match in my life.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44- OK.- Erm...
0:23:44 > 0:23:49Well, one thing I really will say is Graham Edwards not playing so...
0:23:49 > 0:23:53OK, good to know. I was trying to think of A cricketer.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57Erm, so I'll go with...Stuart Broad.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Stuart Broad, says Amanda.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01Stuart Broad, let's see if that's right,
0:24:01 > 0:24:03let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Absolutely right, Amanda.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Good answer, down it goes.
0:24:11 > 0:24:1317 for Stuart Broad.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15APPLAUSE
0:24:19 > 0:24:22That's a very good answer. See, you don't have to have watched cricket
0:24:22 > 0:24:24to know that cricketers exist.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27- They sort of percolate through our culture, don't they?- They do.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Let's take a look at those scores.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Howard, very well done. 10 the best score of that pass, putting you
0:24:34 > 0:24:36and Gwil back where you belong.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39Up to 17, where we find Amanda and Laura, then I'm sorry,
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Emyr and Claire, up to 100.
0:24:41 > 0:24:46So Claire, luckily, you've got some brilliant answers stashed away there
0:24:46 > 0:24:49and we'll need them if you're going to stay in the game so best of luck.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51We're going to come back down the line now.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:24:55 > 0:24:58So, Laura, there you are on 17.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01- Brilliant scoring from Amanda, wasn't it?- Yeah, it was amazing.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03I'm really going to let her down now.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06I don't know if he's ever played cricket, and if he has I don't know
0:25:06 > 0:25:11if he played in 2013, but the name that came to mind was Alastair Cook.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Alastair Cook, says Laura.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16Here's your red line, if you get below that with Alastair Cook,
0:25:16 > 0:25:17you are through to the next round.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20Is it right? How many people said it?
0:25:22 > 0:25:23It's absolutely right.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25You are through to the head-to-head.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Very, very well done indeed, Laura.
0:25:27 > 0:25:2922.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31CHEERING
0:25:31 > 0:25:3439 is your total, very well done.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39Well played, Laura. Very good answer, he's got a great nickname,
0:25:39 > 0:25:42the guys in the team have come up with an absolute belter for him.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44- Cooky, they call him.- That is good!
0:25:44 > 0:25:47- That's clever, isn't it?- Very good.
0:25:47 > 0:25:51Now, Gwil. Gwil. I have a feeling you're going to be good at this.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53No, you're quite wrong.
0:25:53 > 0:25:58I've just going to go with Michael Vaughan and hope for the best.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00OK, Michael Vaughan, says Gwil.
0:26:00 > 0:26:04You need to be scoring 89 or less with Michael Vaughan.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07Here's your red line. It just has to be correct.
0:26:07 > 0:26:08Is it?
0:26:12 > 0:26:13I'm sorry, Gwil.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17An incorrect answer, scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 110.
0:26:17 > 0:26:21Yeah, long time after Michael Vaughan's time, I'm afraid.
0:26:21 > 0:26:25Which means, Claire, a brilliant answer like the one you've got
0:26:25 > 0:26:30which scores 9 or less gets you into the head-to-head.
0:26:30 > 0:26:31Come on.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34- I know nothing about cricket. - I don't believe you, come on.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37I know absolutely nothing and my dad is obsessed with cricket,
0:26:37 > 0:26:39he talks about it all the time
0:26:39 > 0:26:44and it just falls out of my head after he's said it so...
0:26:44 > 0:26:47I think that the only cricketer I can think of, and I think he might
0:26:47 > 0:26:51be married to someone in Liberty X actually, is Kevin Pietersen.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54- Kevin Pietersen.- Yes.- That's the answer you're going to go for.
0:26:54 > 0:26:55I'm going to try that one, yes.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58OK, there's your red line. Get below that with Kevin Pietersen,
0:26:58 > 0:27:01you're in the head-to-head. Let's see if that's right,
0:27:01 > 0:27:03let's see how many people said Kevin Pietersen.
0:27:06 > 0:27:07It's right.
0:27:12 > 0:27:1326.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15APPLAUSE
0:27:15 > 0:27:1826 takes your total up to 126.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22Unlucky, Claire, it's a good answer.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24It's a bad advert for dads talking all the time, isn't it?
0:27:24 > 0:27:25I know, isn't it? Ooh, no.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28If he literally talks about cricket all the time but it's only
0:27:28 > 0:27:32the one who got married to someone from Liberty X that you can remember.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35All the pointless answers, they're all Australian bowlers.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Let's take a look at a few of them.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40Jackson Bird, fast bowler. James Faulkner, he's an all-rounder really.
0:27:40 > 0:27:41James Pattinson.
0:27:41 > 0:27:46You also could have had Nathan Lyon, the spinner, and Mitchell Starc,
0:27:46 > 0:27:47another of the fast bowlers.
0:27:47 > 0:27:501 point for Brad Haddin, Simon Kerrigan
0:27:50 > 0:27:54and Chris Woakes both would've scored you 1 point. David Warner, 2 points.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57Phillip Hughes, Steven Smith. 3 points for Ashton Agar.
0:27:57 > 0:27:593 points for Ed Cowan and Chris Rogers as well.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01Those were the low scorers,
0:28:01 > 0:28:03let's take a look at the three highest scorers.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05Already heard a couple of them.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08Graham Swann with 18, so we know what the other two are.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12Alastair Cook with 22 and Pietersen on 26.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Thanks very much indeed, so at the end of our second round the pair
0:28:15 > 0:28:19who are heading home with their high score of 126, it's Claire and Emyr.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22Oh, dear. Well, you did pretty well though, 126.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24It could've been a great deal worse.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26- It could.- Absolutely, yeah. - It really could've been.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28Yeah, I could've made up a name as well.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34Listen, Graham Edwards, you could've made up a worse name as well.
0:28:34 > 0:28:35- It's a great name.- That's true.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37We will see you again next time, Claire and Emyr,
0:28:37 > 0:28:40and we'll look forward to that, but meantime, thanks for playing.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43- Claire and Emyr.- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:28:43 > 0:28:47But for the remaining two pairs it's now time for the head-to-head.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53Congratulations, Laura and Amanda, Gwil and Howard,
0:28:53 > 0:28:55you're now one step closer to the final
0:28:55 > 0:28:57and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:28:57 > 0:28:59which currently stands at £1,000.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01We have to decide who's going to play for that money
0:29:01 > 0:29:03and to do that you are now going to go head-to-head.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06The big difference is you're now allowed to confer and the
0:29:06 > 0:29:09first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12I think this is going to be an excellent head-to-head,
0:29:12 > 0:29:14best of luck to both pairs, let's play it.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16APPLAUSE
0:29:18 > 0:29:22OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:29:24 > 0:29:25US TV Duos, Richard.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28We're going to show you five pictures now of duos from different
0:29:28 > 0:29:30American TV series, you just need to tell us
0:29:30 > 0:29:33the name of the series in which you'd find these duos. Good luck.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35OK, thanks very much.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38So let's reveal our five duos, and here they come. We've got...
0:29:57 > 0:29:59There we are, five US TV duos.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02Laura and Amanda, you've played best throughout the show so far
0:30:02 > 0:30:03so you will go first.
0:30:05 > 0:30:09- WHISPERS:- I think A is Franklin & Bash.- Shall we take it?
0:30:09 > 0:30:11THEY WHISPER
0:30:14 > 0:30:19I think we're going to go for A and Franklin & Bash.
0:30:19 > 0:30:23Franklin & Bash, say Laura and Amanda. Franklin & Bash.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26Now then, Gwil and Howard, the board's all yours.
0:30:26 > 0:30:30- Do you want to talk us through it? - Yeah, I think B is Breaking Bad.
0:30:30 > 0:30:33C is French Prince... FRESH Prince Of Bel Air.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36D is Starsky And Hutch and E is The Odd Couple
0:30:36 > 0:30:39and I don't know which one to go for.
0:30:41 > 0:30:44Going to stay with B, Breaking Bad. What do you think?
0:30:44 > 0:30:46- Yeah, that's fine. - B, Breaking Bad.- B, Breaking Bad.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48So we have Franklin & Bash and Breaking Bad.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51Laura and Amanda said Franklin & Bash, let's see if that's right
0:30:51 > 0:30:54and, if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57It is right.
0:30:57 > 0:30:59Good answer.
0:31:02 > 0:31:044.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06CHEERING
0:31:08 > 0:31:12Very well done, Laura and Amanda, 4 for Franklin & Bash.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15Gwil and Howard have gone for Breaking Bad for B, let's see
0:31:15 > 0:31:18if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many people said that.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22It's right.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28Another good answer. 14.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31APPLAUSE
0:31:31 > 0:31:33But Laura and Amanda, you win that one.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35After one question, you're up 1-0.
0:31:35 > 0:31:38- Laura and Amanda are pretty good, aren't they?- Yeah.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40That's very well played. Nothing you could've done
0:31:40 > 0:31:42to beat that. Actually, you gave the next best answer,
0:31:42 > 0:31:45so that was well played as well, and you knew all of them.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46Let's go through the other scores.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52Biggest answer on the board by some way, Starsky And Hutch,
0:31:52 > 0:31:54would've scored you 74.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03Very well done if you said Franklin & Bash at home, a terrific answer.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05Thanks very much indeed. OK, here comes your second question.
0:32:05 > 0:32:08Gwil and Howard, you'll get to answer it first but you'll have to
0:32:08 > 0:32:11win it to stay in the game, so good luck. It concerns...
0:32:13 > 0:32:17- Freshwater Fish. Richard.- Yeah, if Laura and Amanda can do this
0:32:17 > 0:32:19then they're really clever. We're going to show you
0:32:19 > 0:32:22five freshwater fish now but we've removed alternate letters
0:32:22 > 0:32:25from their names. Can you fill in the gaps and give us the best answer?
0:32:25 > 0:32:26Thanks very much indeed.
0:32:26 > 0:32:29OK, let's reveal our five freshwater fish, and here they are.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39I'll read those all again.
0:32:45 > 0:32:48So Gwil and Howard will go first.
0:32:48 > 0:32:52- Have you got one? - No idea on the top one?
0:32:52 > 0:32:55THEY WHISPER
0:32:57 > 0:33:02I'm going to have to go with the second one and say tench.
0:33:02 > 0:33:07You're going to say tench? OK, Laura and Amanda, the board is all yours.
0:33:07 > 0:33:09We think the third one's pike
0:33:09 > 0:33:13but we're going to go with the last one and say stickleback.
0:33:13 > 0:33:18Stickleback, say Laura and Amanda. So we have tench versus stickleback.
0:33:18 > 0:33:22Gwil and Howard have said tench, let's see if that's right
0:33:22 > 0:33:24and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said that.
0:33:26 > 0:33:27It's right.
0:33:31 > 0:33:3241.
0:33:32 > 0:33:34APPLAUSE
0:33:36 > 0:33:3941. Laura and Amanda have said stickleback.
0:33:39 > 0:33:40Let's see if that's right
0:33:40 > 0:33:43and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said stickleback.
0:33:46 > 0:33:50It's absolutely right, and if that beats 41 you go straight through...
0:33:50 > 0:33:52Very well done! ..to the final.
0:33:52 > 0:33:5420.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56APPLAUSE
0:33:56 > 0:33:57Very, very well played indeed.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59That means, Laura and Amanda,
0:33:59 > 0:34:03after only two questions you're straight through to the final, 2-0.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06Yeah, very well played, well played both teams throughout the show.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09The biggest scorer on that board is pike
0:34:09 > 0:34:12but it would've scored you 93 points.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15Do you know what the main constituent of a pike's diet is?
0:34:15 > 0:34:19- Er...shopping trolleys? No, it can't be that.- No.
0:34:19 > 0:34:21It's smaller pike.
0:34:21 > 0:34:26- Aw, guys!- That's not good, is it? - Don't do that.- I know, right?
0:34:26 > 0:34:27Go for sticklebacks!
0:34:27 > 0:34:30We know they are too because they've got their backs a bit stickly.
0:34:30 > 0:34:32- Yeah, you don't want that, do you? Give you a cough.- Yeah.
0:34:32 > 0:34:37- Now the next one down beginning with B?- Bream.- It's not bream.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40- Oh, it's not, because that's E-A-M. - Bureem that would be, yeah.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43- B-U-R-E-E-M, bureem.- Oh, yeah. No, two Rs.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45It's barbel.
0:34:45 > 0:34:48- Oh, yeah, OK, fair enough. - That would've scored you 4.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51- And the top one is?- But I do know the one at the top, for obvious reasons.
0:34:51 > 0:34:54It's a zander. Would've scored you 12 points.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57- Have you ever eaten a zander? - Never have.- Have you not?- No.
0:34:57 > 0:35:00Even smaller zanders, I don't eat.
0:35:01 > 0:35:05Yeah, the main diet of a zander is... foie gras and good claret.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09- Thanks very much.- You don't eat foie gras, do you?- No.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12- No. No, good. Good boy. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:35:15 > 0:35:17I'm afraid it's Gwil and Howard.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20Well, you made it through to the head-to-head, which was great,
0:35:20 > 0:35:22nothing wrong with either of your answers.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24In fact, Breaking Bad, a lovely low score there,
0:35:24 > 0:35:26- but you were just up against Laura and Amanda.- Yeah.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28- They know everything. - They do know everything.
0:35:28 > 0:35:29Very impressive indeed,
0:35:29 > 0:35:31really nothing much you could do against that.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34- Yeah, no shame in losing to them. - No shame whatsoever.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36But it's been great having you on both shows, thanks so much,
0:35:36 > 0:35:37- Gwil and Howard.- Thank you.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40APPLAUSE
0:35:40 > 0:35:42But for Laura and Amanda it's time for our Pointless final.
0:35:46 > 0:35:49Congratulations, Laura and Amanda, you fought off all the competition
0:35:49 > 0:35:52and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy, so very well done.
0:35:58 > 0:36:00You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:36:00 > 0:36:04and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £1,000.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07Well, I mean, I'm delighted you've come through to the final
0:36:07 > 0:36:09because you played so well, consistently the lower scorers
0:36:09 > 0:36:11and then 2-0 in the head-to-head.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14I mean, fantastic, and pretty random questions as well.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16What would you like to see come up in this last round?
0:36:16 > 0:36:19I don't think it can get any worse than what we've had to be fair.
0:36:19 > 0:36:21- Yeah, we've been quite lucky so... - Yeah, we've been...yeah.
0:36:21 > 0:36:24- I don't know.- Maybe music or celebrities, something like that.
0:36:24 > 0:36:25Yeah, bit more pop culture.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28OK, well, we've been giving away a lot of jackpots...
0:36:28 > 0:36:31I say giving away, people have been winning a lot of jackpots recently
0:36:31 > 0:36:33so let's hope that run can continue.
0:36:33 > 0:36:35Here are you four options, they are...
0:36:43 > 0:36:46I mean, that's just all pop culture, isn't it?
0:36:46 > 0:36:48What do you make of that?
0:36:48 > 0:36:50Nothing is good for me, so this is on you.
0:36:50 > 0:36:53The fourth one is going to be the best of them.
0:36:53 > 0:36:57I did a theatre-related degree, so this might not go down so well
0:36:57 > 0:37:00- when I don't get it.- Let's go for it...- Yeah, let's do it.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03- ..because I'm not good at anything. - OK, 20th Century Theatre it is.
0:37:03 > 0:37:07- Richard.- Yeah, we're looking for any of the named characters
0:37:07 > 0:37:11in the first production of any of the following plays.
0:37:11 > 0:37:15So any named character in Pygmalion when it first appeared on the stage.
0:37:15 > 0:37:19Any named character in The Mousetrap when it first appeared on the stage
0:37:19 > 0:37:21or any named character in An Inspector Calls
0:37:21 > 0:37:24when it first appeared on stage. I think that's pretty tough.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26Looking for any of the named characters in Pygmalion,
0:37:26 > 0:37:28The Mousetrap or An Inspector Calls.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31- Very, very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:37:31 > 0:37:35As always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:37:35 > 0:37:37and all you need to win that jackpot of £1,000 is
0:37:37 > 0:37:39for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42The answers you give can come from any of these three categories
0:37:42 > 0:37:45and how you spread them across the categories is entirely up to you.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47It can be all from the same category if you like or one from each.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50Two from one, one from another. Entirely down to you. Are you ready?
0:37:50 > 0:37:53- Yes.- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55There they are, your time starts now.
0:37:55 > 0:37:58- OK, Pygmalion is My Fair Lady.- Yes. - So it's characters from there.
0:37:58 > 0:38:01You've got Professor Henry Higgins.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03Don't think he's obscure, though.
0:38:03 > 0:38:07- Oh, what's the boy that she falls in love with?- Erm...
0:38:08 > 0:38:10Freddy, Freddy...
0:38:10 > 0:38:12Oh, my God, what's his surname?
0:38:12 > 0:38:14Do you know either of the other two?
0:38:14 > 0:38:16Something Hill, it's Freddy something Hill.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18No, I don't know The Mousetrap.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21There's a character in An Inspector Calls called Sheila
0:38:21 > 0:38:24but I don't remember her surname. Erm...
0:38:24 > 0:38:27- It's something like, it's Freddy, Freddy Eynsford-Hill.- OK.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29So Freddy Eynsford-Hill.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31Then there's his mother who's Mrs Eynsford-Hill,
0:38:31 > 0:38:33I don't know if they ever mention her first name.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36Go for it. And then...?
0:38:37 > 0:38:39Professor Henry Higgins, Eliza Doolittle, there's her dad.
0:38:39 > 0:38:43- What's her dad's name?- Mr Doolittle?
0:38:43 > 0:38:45- No, his first name's definitely mentioned.- 10 seconds left.
0:38:45 > 0:38:49- OK, Freddy Eynsford-Hill, Mrs Eynsford-Hill.- Yeah.- And, erm...
0:38:52 > 0:38:54- Go for Professor Henry Higgins?- OK.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56OK, that's your time up.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58It sounds like you've just arrived at your three answers.
0:38:58 > 0:39:02- What are they going to be?- Freddy Eynsford-Hill.- Freddy Eynsford-Hill.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05- Mrs Eynsford-Hill. - Mrs Eynsford-Hill.
0:39:05 > 0:39:06And Professor Henry Higgins.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09And Professor Henry Higgins, and they all come from which category?
0:39:09 > 0:39:11- They all come from Pygmalion. - Thank you very much.
0:39:11 > 0:39:15OK, of those three, which is your most likely to be pointless,
0:39:15 > 0:39:17- do you think?- I think Freddy Eynsford-Hill.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20OK, Freddy Eynsford-Hill we'll put last. Least likely?
0:39:20 > 0:39:21Professor Henry Higgins.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24I think that's probably right, let's put him first.
0:39:24 > 0:39:26OK, let's pop them all up on the board in that order,
0:39:26 > 0:39:27and here they are.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30We have Professor Henry Higgins, Mrs Eynsford-Hill
0:39:30 > 0:39:33and Freddy Eynsford-Hill.
0:39:33 > 0:39:35Well, very best of luck.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37Your first answer, the one you thought was probably least
0:39:37 > 0:39:40likely to be pointless was Professor Henry Higgins.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42Remember, only one of these answers has to be pointless
0:39:42 > 0:39:44for you to win that jackpot of £1,000.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46What would you do if you won it, Laura?
0:39:46 > 0:39:48Probably be really boring because I'm going to be moving house
0:39:48 > 0:39:51next year so it's going to go towards agency fees.
0:39:51 > 0:39:53Fair enough. All to a good end.
0:39:53 > 0:39:55- And some shopping, some shoes and something as well.- Good.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57Amanda, how about you?
0:39:57 > 0:39:59I have got a friend who is teaching English out in Ethiopia
0:39:59 > 0:40:02- so it would be pay for a flight out to go and see her.- Excellent.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05Very best of luck. Three answers on the board, let's hope one of them
0:40:05 > 0:40:08at least is pointless. Professor Henry Higgins, first answer.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11Obviously it has to be correct, it then has to be pointless -
0:40:11 > 0:40:12might be more of a challenge,
0:40:12 > 0:40:15but if it's both of those things you will win that jackpot.
0:40:15 > 0:40:16So for £1,000, let's see how many people said
0:40:16 > 0:40:19Professor Henry Higgins was a character from Pygmalion.
0:40:22 > 0:40:23Well, it's right.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28Obviously if it goes all the way down to 0, you leave with £1,000.
0:40:28 > 0:40:31Professor Henry Higgins now going down through the twenties,
0:40:31 > 0:40:32into the teens, even.
0:40:32 > 0:40:3314! Not bad.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36APPLAUSE
0:40:38 > 0:40:39I tell you what,
0:40:39 > 0:40:42I'm suddenly much more excited about your two subsequent answers.
0:40:42 > 0:40:45It might be looking pretty good for Freddy Eynsford-Hill.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Anyhow, only two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:40:48 > 0:40:51Your second answer was Mrs Eynsford-Hill.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54For £1,000, let's find out.
0:40:54 > 0:40:59Mrs Eynsford-Hill, is she a character in Pygmalion?
0:41:01 > 0:41:03Yes, she is.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06Now then, if she goes all the way down to 0,
0:41:06 > 0:41:08and let's just remember Professor Henry Higgins only
0:41:08 > 0:41:11went down to 14, then you leave here with £1,000.
0:41:11 > 0:41:13Still going down, down it goes,
0:41:13 > 0:41:15you've done it! That's fantastic.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17CHEERING
0:41:17 > 0:41:21Very well done indeed, that is just superb. Brilliant answer.
0:41:21 > 0:41:25APPLAUSE
0:41:29 > 0:41:30Wow, congratulations!
0:41:30 > 0:41:32And so our jackpot run continues.
0:41:32 > 0:41:35Congratulations, Mrs Eynsford-Hill was a pointless answer,
0:41:35 > 0:41:38which means you leave here with our jackpot of £1,000.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40Very well done indeed.
0:41:40 > 0:41:41APPLAUSE
0:41:41 > 0:41:44Can have my head held high with my degree.
0:41:44 > 0:41:45How about that?
0:41:45 > 0:41:48I have to say, from start to finish, one of the best performances
0:41:48 > 0:41:51we've seen on Pointless in a very, very long time, so very well played,
0:41:51 > 0:41:54especially as Freddy Eynsford-Hill was also a pointless answer.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56APPLAUSE
0:41:58 > 0:42:00Let's go through the pointless answers
0:42:00 > 0:42:04in all the different categories. See how well you did at home.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Alfred Doolittle was Eliza's father.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08There's Freddy Eynsford-Hill.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11Mrs Higgins, Henry Higgins' mother.
0:42:11 > 0:42:14Mrs Pearce, who's Henry Higgins' housekeeper.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16All of those were pointless answers.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19Characters in The Mousetrap that would've won you the money.
0:42:19 > 0:42:22Christopher Wren, Detective Sergeant Trotter, Mollie Ralston
0:42:22 > 0:42:24and that Mr Parvacini.
0:42:24 > 0:42:28I won't say who did it. All of those pointless answers.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31And Sheila Birling was the character name you were looking for
0:42:31 > 0:42:33and in fact all the Birling family are pointless,
0:42:33 > 0:42:36her parents Sybil Birling and Arthur Birling, also pointless,
0:42:36 > 0:42:38as was her brother, Eric Birling.
0:42:38 > 0:42:40Gerald Croft is her fiance, also pointless,
0:42:40 > 0:42:42and Edna the parlour maid, also pointless.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Very well done if you said any of those at home
0:42:44 > 0:42:46but terrific performance, very, very well played.
0:42:46 > 0:42:48Thanks very much, Richard.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51Well, thanks once again to our winning players, Laura and Amanda,
0:42:51 > 0:42:53who go away with today's jackpot of £1,000.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55Very well done.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57APPLAUSE
0:42:58 > 0:43:02Join us next time, when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
