0:00:26 > 0:00:29of 100 people before the show, and our contestants have to
0:00:29 > 0:00:32come up with the answers no-one else could think of. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38And couple number one.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Hi, my name's Johnny, this is my friend Gemma,
0:00:40 > 0:00:42and we're from Plymouth.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44- Couple number two.- Hi, my name's Tom, this is my friend Raz,
0:00:44 > 0:00:46and we're from Bridgend in South Wales.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Couple number three.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Jo, this is my sister Penni, and we're from Barry in South Wales.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53And finally, couple number four.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hi, my name's Kath, this is my friend Pauline,
0:00:55 > 0:00:57and we're from Keele in Staffordshire.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59And these are today's contestants.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Thanks very much, all of you. We'll get to know more about you as we go along.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11Seventh runner-up in Mr Bishop's Stortford 1984 and recently voted most
0:01:11 > 0:01:14eligible teatime quiz show co-host on British TV
0:01:14 > 0:01:17over the height of two metres... who wears glasses.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Who says you can't have brains and beauty?
0:01:19 > 0:01:24- It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya. Hi, everybody. Hiya.
0:01:26 > 0:01:30- Goodness me, how are you?- I'm fine. - Haven't quite got over the last show.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31- Oh, I know!- Round Two,
0:01:31 > 0:01:35the most extraordinary round in Pointless history, not in a good way.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38It was a round on the '70s, went on nearly as long as the '70s.
0:01:38 > 0:01:39It really did.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42Six answers, four of them given by people who are here,
0:01:42 > 0:01:44every single one of them 100 points.
0:01:45 > 0:01:50200 plays 200 plays 200 - triple lockdown, for the first time ever.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- That was something. - So, no more of that today, OK?
0:01:53 > 0:01:55- No more of that today. - Thanks, Richard.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59All our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02Our contestants here are looking for the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Everyone's trying to find a pointless answer, that being
0:02:05 > 0:02:07an answer that none of our 100 people gave,
0:02:07 > 0:02:10and each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13Leo and James didn't win the jackpot last time,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16so we add another £1,000 to that, so today's jackpot starts off at...
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Now, that's a jackpot.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Right. If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30OK. The pair with the highest score at the end of this round will be
0:02:30 > 0:02:32eliminated, and remember there is no conferring
0:02:32 > 0:02:35during the round itself. Our first category today is...
0:02:38 > 0:02:40It's Language.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:02:43 > 0:02:47And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50OK. And the question concerns...
0:02:54 > 0:02:57Well, that's fun, isn't it? Days of the week in European languages.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00- Richard.- This is just a proper test of O-levels and GCSEs.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03In a moment, Xander's going to show you four European languages.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05We're simply looking for any of the days of the week
0:03:05 > 0:03:09- in any of those languages, please. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12As Rich just mentioned, we're going to put four languages on the board.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16All you have to do is name any day of the week in any of those languages.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18There we are. Let's reveal our four languages.
0:03:18 > 0:03:19Here they come.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Now then, Johnny and Gemma, you all drew lots before the show,
0:03:26 > 0:03:30- and today you are going to go first. Johnny, welcome back.- Thank you.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32How do you and Gemma know each other?
0:03:32 > 0:03:37Well, we were a couple for about five years, and now we're friends.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39- Now you're friends.- Yep.- And, er...
0:03:39 > 0:03:41I want to hear a bit more about that!
0:03:41 > 0:03:43LAUGHTER
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Yeah, OK. But how nice, to remain friends.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Were you not friends for a bit then friends again?
0:03:47 > 0:03:50I think we were always friends, I don't know how Gemma felt about it.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53- Sometimes, after you've been a couple...- We were always friends.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- Yeah.- In the couple, outside of the couple.- OK.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Days of the week in foreign languages.
0:03:58 > 0:03:59LAUGHTER
0:03:59 > 0:04:01- Yeah, let's move on.- Let's move on.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Well, thankfully German came up,
0:04:03 > 0:04:06cos that's the only one that I studied to any kind of level.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09- So I'm going to go with Donnerstag.- Donnerstag.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Donnerstag. Let's see if that's right,
0:04:11 > 0:04:14let's see how many of our 100 people said Donnerstag.
0:04:16 > 0:04:17It's right.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23Wow, 13. Well done.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33Well played, Johnny. From the Germanic god of thunder, Donar.
0:04:33 > 0:04:37Thanks very much, Richard. Now then. Tom, welcome to the show.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39- Thank you very much. - What do you do, Tom?
0:04:39 > 0:04:42I work in front of house in a hotel in South Wales.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Is it just a small independent hotel?
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Yeah, it's a small independent place. Really good.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49- You must have some stories! - Oh, quite a few, quite a few.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- Any you can tell at teatime on BBC One?- Not really, no.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Unfortunately not.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57When you're not working at the hotel, Tom, what do you get up to?
0:04:57 > 0:05:02I like to keep fit, do a bit of running, play a bit of football.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05- Just keep myself in shape.- OK.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07How are your French or German skills, Tom?
0:05:07 > 0:05:10I think German, I did a bit of German at GCSE
0:05:10 > 0:05:14- and I've got one date in mind.- OK.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17So, I'm going to go for Montag.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Montag. Let's see if Montag's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24It's right!
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Well, Donnerstag scored 13, Montag...
0:05:27 > 0:05:29scores 30.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Another good answer. "Moon's day", Montag.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39I love the way you're not saying which days of the week these are.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42- Am I not?- No.- I'll say Donnerstag...
0:05:42 > 0:05:44- Thursday.- Thursday. Yeah.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48- What do you reckon on Montag? - I'm guessing it's Monday, yeah.
0:05:48 > 0:05:49LAUGHTER
0:05:49 > 0:05:55- Now then, Jo, welcome back. Veterans of Round Two.- We were there, yeah.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56LAUGHTER
0:05:56 > 0:05:59- Now, Jo, remind us, what do you do?- I'm a librarian.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03And remind us what you get up to when you're not doing librarian stuff.
0:06:03 > 0:06:04Lots of things.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06I like some art, some knitting.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10I like to try and keep fit - I LIKE going to the gym...
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Took a long time for the bug to bite but these days I like it.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15- You look good.- Thank you.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17- And I'm training for a marathon at the moment.- Wow.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21- Any particular one in mind? - London.- Good. Good stuff.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Now, there we are, days of the week in these languages.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Well, I left school a long time ago.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32I can remember three French days.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36My pronunciation might not be so brilliant, but I'll go for Mardi.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Mardi. Mardi, says Jo.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said Mardi.
0:06:44 > 0:06:45It's right.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Well, 30's our high score, 13 our low score.
0:06:48 > 0:06:5050 is now our high score.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57- There we are. Well done. 50. - Mardi, it's Tuesday in French.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00- It's where we get Mardi Gras from. It means "Fat Tuesday".- Fat Tuesday.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03- It does, yeah.- Exactly. Thank you very much.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Now then. Pauline, welcome to the show. Great to have you here.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10- What do you do, Pauline? - I retired two weeks ago.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- Retired and loving it. - Two weeks in.- Yes.- Fantastic.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15What did you retire from?
0:07:15 > 0:07:18I was a research institute manager at Keele University.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21And how long had you done that for?
0:07:21 > 0:07:25I've only done that for seven years, but I'd been at Keele for 34 years.
0:07:25 > 0:07:30Right. OK. So a bit of a change of scene, change of environment.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- Oh, yes.- Yeah. And what are you planning to do with your time?
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Well, I do dog agility.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- Dog agility?- Agility.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41- Yes, good.- Dog agility. - Dog agility, I've got it.- Yes.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43The dogs run. They go over jumps.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- That's a discipline at Crufts. - Yes, it is.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Crufts, I shall be there at Crufts.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52- Will you really?- Yeah.- Have you done it before?- No, I haven't.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- No. Pretty nervous.- But you have shown your dogs, have you?
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- It's not showing, it's getting them over jumps.- I do beg your pardon,
0:07:58 > 0:08:00you have jumped your dogs.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01LAUGHTER
0:08:01 > 0:08:03It's good fun. Four dogs.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Now then, Pauline, how are your languages?
0:08:05 > 0:08:11Well, I did French and German at O-level, in Victorian times.
0:08:11 > 0:08:16I can remember the French, and I'll go for Jeudi.
0:08:16 > 0:08:17- Jeudi.- Yes.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Jeudi, says Pauline. Let's see if that's right,
0:08:19 > 0:08:21and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:08:28 > 0:08:29Look at that, 34. Not bad at all.
0:08:34 > 0:08:39That's Thursday in French. Named after Jove. "Jove's day."
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Thanks very much indeed. Thank you.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43We're halfway through the round, let's look at the scores.
0:08:43 > 0:08:4513, Donnerstag there,
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Johnny, well done.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Then up to 30, where we find Tom and Raz,
0:08:49 > 0:08:52up to 34, Pauline and Kath,
0:08:52 > 0:08:54and then Jo and Penni, it's 50.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57- So, Penni, how good are your language skills?- Brilliant.- Good.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59This is exactly what I wanted to hear. Better than Jo's?
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- Yeah, why not?- Let's say that. Well, best of luck,
0:09:02 > 0:09:04we need a low score from you, is what I'm saying.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06We're going to come back down the line now.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:09:10 > 0:09:12OK, now, Kath.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15We are looking for any day of the week in any of these European
0:09:15 > 0:09:18languages. Welcome to the show, Kath. What do you do, Kath?
0:09:18 > 0:09:22I'm a senior school manager at Keele University. Still working.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24What do you do in your spare time? What are your hobbies?
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Well, I've got a dog. Only one, though.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- So I do lots of walking with her. - Agility?
0:09:29 > 0:09:33- No, I couldn't do agility with my jack-a-bee.- What's a jack-a-bee?
0:09:33 > 0:09:36It's a cross between a Jack Russell and a beagle.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39- So, her agility is she runs away. - OK.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43- And I'd need to be agile to catch her.- Right. OK.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Now then, Kath, how agile are your languages?
0:09:46 > 0:09:50I only ever did one language, which was French,
0:09:50 > 0:09:51so I'm dredging the memory cells,
0:09:51 > 0:09:55and the only one I can sort of come up with is Mercredi.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58Mercredi, says Kath. OK. You're on 34 -
0:09:58 > 0:10:01the high scorers at this stage, Penni and Jo on 50.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04If you can score 15 or less you'll avoid becoming the new high scorers.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07There's your red line. Let's see how many of our 100 said Mecredi.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11- It's right.- Great...
0:10:13 > 0:10:1546.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18They're all quite high scorers, those French ones.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Takes your total up to a nice and neat 80.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24Named after the god Mercury, of course. Means Wednesday in France.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27It used to be a day off in all schools in France, Wednesday.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- It's just changed.- It was just a day off?- Yep. Mandatory.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- What are we doing?!- I know. Would be quite fun, that, wouldn't it?- Yeah.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36- Be nice.- Anyway, let's do that next Wednesday.- OK.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Next Wednesday, you're on. Thanks very much indeed. Now then, Penni.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41- Yes.- You have a target now.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- Yes.- You have a target. You have to score 29 or less,
0:10:45 > 0:10:48then you're still in the game. Tell me about your language skills.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Obviously, we discovered last time that you actually do
0:10:51 > 0:10:54- a bilingual course for children. - That's right, yeah,
0:10:54 > 0:10:56I do bilingual music classes for babies and little ones,
0:10:56 > 0:10:58so my Welsh, I'd have been flying!
0:10:58 > 0:11:00English, not too bad.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03This list, meh...
0:11:03 > 0:11:06- I did German GCSE. - This is good.- Yeah.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09German, our current low scorer.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11I'm going for...
0:11:11 > 0:11:13Dienstag.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16- Dienstag.- Yeah.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Oh... We went on Dean's stag, didn't we?
0:11:19 > 0:11:23- What a guy he is.- Tallinn we went to. What fun we had.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27- They're divorced now, aren't they?- Yes.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30So yes, let's find out if that's right. There is your red line,
0:11:30 > 0:11:33get below that, you're through to Round Two. Dienstag.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42Oh, look at that - very well done, you've done it!
0:11:42 > 0:11:4515! Our second low score of the round. Takes you to 65.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48You're in Round Two.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Well played, Penni. Tuesday in German.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54Thanks very much. Now then, Raz, welcome. Great to have you.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56What's Raz short for?
0:11:56 > 0:12:00My surname is Raznik, so everyone tends to call me Raz
0:12:00 > 0:12:03- apart from my mum and dad, basically.- What do you do, Raz?
0:12:03 > 0:12:06I'm an IT service desk manager for a financial company.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07And what are your hobbies?
0:12:07 > 0:12:11Um...same as Tom, I like all sport, football, squash, running -
0:12:11 > 0:12:13those sorts of things.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17- OK. Now, how good do you think your languages are?- Awful.- Really?
0:12:17 > 0:12:22Listen, if they're 49 or less awful, you're with us for Round Two.
0:12:22 > 0:12:23I've got one left that...
0:12:23 > 0:12:28I did at French, which I hope is a day of the week and not a month.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30I think that's Lundi.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Lundi, says Raz.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35OK, there's your red line. If you get below that,
0:12:35 > 0:12:38you're through to Round Two. How many people said it?
0:12:40 > 0:12:42It's right.
0:12:44 > 0:12:4656 for Lundi.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Oh, lordy. That takes your total up to 86.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51You are our new high scorers.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Big score, isn't it? French for Monday. The moon's day, "la lune".
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Thanks very much.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00- Now, Gemma, welcome back.- Thank you.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Remind us what you do, Gemma.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06I work in a corner shop in Plymouth and I also do a lot of charity work,
0:13:06 > 0:13:09- but the corner shop's probably more interesting.- I bet it is.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13- I bet it is a hive of activity.- Yes.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- Penny sweets...- But you don't like the penny sweets.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19I don't mind the penny sweets when it's children.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22£3 for a student, I'm not happy about.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25- OK.- Children, 30p, 20p.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29A student coming in 8:30 in the evening, £3 of penny sweets.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Not happening.
0:13:31 > 0:13:35Now then, listen, you have a target here, which is 72 or less.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39You're on 13 thanks to Johnny's excellent Donnerstag.
0:13:39 > 0:13:44Which means I don't have to... try very hard, does it?
0:13:44 > 0:13:48I was going to say Dimanche, but I think I'm going to go for Miercoles.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Miercoles.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52There's your red line,
0:13:52 > 0:13:55if you get below that you're through. Let's see if it's right.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00It is right! Very well done, Gemma. You're into Round Two.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05Might even be our lowest score - yes, it is!
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Very best score of the round, takes your total up to 21.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Well played, Gemma. Wednesday in Spanish.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16There's only one language we haven't had a go at and that's Portuguese
0:14:16 > 0:14:19and that's where all the pointless answers are. Let's take a look.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23Quinta-feira, which is Thursday in Portuguese.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Quarta-feira, which is Wednesday.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27Segunda-feira, that's Monday.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31And Sexta-feira, which is...?
0:14:31 > 0:14:35- It's going to be Friday. - It's Friday.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39Other low scorers... Gemma, if you were forced to go through
0:14:39 > 0:14:41the Spanish days of the week, what else would you have gone for?
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Viernes?
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Would have scored you 6 points. That is the best answer up there.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Jueves would have scored you 7 points,
0:14:49 > 0:14:51you'd have got 9 for Martes and 11 for Lunes.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54There's two that are Spanish and Portuguese. That's Sabado
0:14:54 > 0:14:57which would scored you 12, and Domingo, would have scored you 14.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Terca-feira, in Portuguese, would have scored 1 point,
0:15:00 > 0:15:02it's the only other Portuguese one to score a point.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05In German, the lowest score would have been Sonnabend, which is
0:15:05 > 0:15:06one of their names for Saturday.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09You also could have had Samstag for 9, Mittwoch would have scored you 14,
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Sonntag would have scored you 16, Freitag 25.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15And the only French ones we haven't had - Vendredi is actually
0:15:15 > 0:15:18the lowest scorer of all the French ones, would have scored 30.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Dimanche would have scored 35, so it would have been a much bigger score
0:15:21 > 0:15:24if you'd gone for it, and Samedi would have scored you 39.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26I tell you what I like about that -
0:15:26 > 0:15:28the Germans have a sort of nickname for Saturday.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30- We should do that.- Yeah, we should.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Maybe we could have that for our Wednesday off.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35- We could have a new name for it. - That's a good idea.- Yeah.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38- Oh, no, but Woden might not like it. - Woden would be furious.
0:15:38 > 0:15:42- He does have quite a temper. - Yeah, he really does.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44I'm not stupid - Woden, I'm kidding.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47Do you think that's enough...?
0:15:47 > 0:15:49- Anyway...- He came on - I'm thinking of Sir Terry Wogan,
0:15:49 > 0:15:53- is who I'm thinking of.- Yes. Yeah.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56He'd be fine. He'd be fine with it.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58I'm more scared of Wogan than Woden, if I'm honest.
0:15:58 > 0:16:03- Really?- Yeah, aren't you? - Mm...
0:16:03 > 0:16:04Thanks very much, Richard.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07At the end of our first round, the pair we're saying goodbye to
0:16:07 > 0:16:11are Raz and Tom, on their high score of 86. You weren't way ahead -
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Kath and Pauline just behind you, nipping at your heels there.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16We say goodbye now, but we will see you again next time.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Look forward to that very much indeed.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Raz and Tom, thanks so much for playing.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30So three pairs remain.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32At the end of this round we will have to say goodbye to
0:16:32 > 0:16:35another pair in time for out head-to-head.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two is...
0:16:39 > 0:16:44Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second?
0:16:44 > 0:16:47And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51OK, and the question concerns...
0:16:57 > 0:17:00On each pass we're going to show the names of six music acts and a year.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03You need to tell us the name of the top ten hit they had in that year
0:17:03 > 0:17:05with a song that had the word "Heart" in the title.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08There's going to be 12 tracks to guess at home, so very best of luck.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Thanks very much indeed.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13OK, we are looking for the titles of the songs released by these artists
0:17:13 > 0:17:16in the years shown that contain the word "Heart".
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Here is our first board of six artists.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34I'll read those all one last time.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50So there we are. Gemma...
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Yes. They all look like
0:17:52 > 0:17:55they're going to be quite high.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58But there are...four big songs
0:17:58 > 0:18:02on there, I'd say. Big songs.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05So I think I'm going to go modern
0:18:05 > 0:18:06and say Olly Murs featuring
0:18:06 > 0:18:09Rizzle Kicks, Heart Skips A Beat.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12Heart Skips A Beat. Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:18:12 > 0:18:14let's see how many people said Heart Skips A Beat.
0:18:16 > 0:18:17It's right.
0:18:21 > 0:18:2325.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32Not a bad choice there, Gemma. It was Olly Murs' second number one single.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Just lost out on the Best Single at the Brits to One Direction.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Jo.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40Yes.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Well...
0:18:42 > 0:18:43There's only a couple there
0:18:43 > 0:18:46I think I might have a guess at.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48And of the ones I might guess,
0:18:48 > 0:18:50I think they'll be really high.
0:18:50 > 0:18:51So I'm going to go with Penni's
0:18:51 > 0:18:53all-time favourite song,
0:18:53 > 0:18:55which I think is Billy Ray Cyrus
0:18:55 > 0:18:56and Achy Breaky Heart.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59- Achy Breaky Heart. - I think that's the one.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03- OK, let's see if that's right. Is it really your favourite song?- No.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05- Yes.- No, it isn't.- Yes.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07Let's see how many people said Achy Breaky Heart.
0:19:14 > 0:19:1534. Not bad.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24Well played, Jo. It's his first and only top ten hit.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28He has a daughter called Miley, but I have no further information on her.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30LAUGHTER
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Thanks very much. Now, Kath, we come to you.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35You're the last person to have this board, so take us
0:19:35 > 0:19:37through it and fill in the blanks.
0:19:37 > 0:19:41I can...fill in one of the blanks.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44I knew the other two. Erm...
0:19:44 > 0:19:45I can't dredge up
0:19:45 > 0:19:47the Gene Pitney, I should know it.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49So I'm really sorry, Pauline,
0:19:49 > 0:19:51I'm going to go for
0:19:51 > 0:19:53My Heart Will Go On, Celine Dion.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57OK, My Heart Will Go On. Pauline, what do you think?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00I think it's right, I think it's a high score.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03OK, let's see. Maybe people forgot it.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05My Heart Will Go On. How many people said it?
0:20:10 > 0:20:1355. Not too bad.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Yeah, and it's so much better than taking a risk and getting 100.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22One of the biggest-selling singles ever in the UK, My Heart Will Go On.
0:20:22 > 0:20:251.5 million copies. Won an Oscar as well.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Now, let's take a look at the rest of these.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29- The Bluebells?- Young At Heart.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32- So catchy, isn't it?- Great song.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36The Gene Pitney one,
0:20:36 > 0:20:37another brilliant song.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41That's right, yes.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44And Sarah Brightman and Hot Gossip?
0:20:44 > 0:20:47You'll remember the song. I Lost My Heart...
0:20:47 > 0:20:49To A Starship Trooper.
0:20:49 > 0:20:50That's the best answer up there.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53I didn't know that was Sarah Brightman.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55Wow, there we are. Thank you, Richard.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Let's take a look at those scores.
0:20:57 > 0:20:5825, the best score of that pass,
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Gemma, well done, you chose wisely.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Now, we go up to 34, Jo and Penni.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Kath and Pauline, again our returning pairs
0:21:05 > 0:21:07are putting you through the mill.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Pauline, you'll get first bite at the new board,
0:21:09 > 0:21:13so make sure you find a nice, low score and maybe that'll be enough to keep you in the round.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Best of luck. Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:19 > 0:21:22OK, let's put six more artists on the board, and here they come.
0:21:34 > 0:21:35I'll read those all one last time.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Remember, Pauline, we are looking
0:21:47 > 0:21:49for the names of the songs
0:21:49 > 0:21:51released by the artists in the years shown,
0:21:51 > 0:21:54and the word "Heart" features in each of those names.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56You are on 55, our high scorers.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58How do you find that board, Pauline?
0:21:58 > 0:22:01I should know them all. I know one.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03- Is it a high-scoring one?- Oh, yes.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05LAUGHTER
0:22:07 > 0:22:11Don't Go Breaking My Heart, Elton John and Kiki Dee.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Don't Go Breaking My Heart. I think that's not bad at all.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17No red for you as you're the high scorers, but let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:22:19 > 0:22:20It's right.
0:22:23 > 0:22:2444.
0:22:26 > 0:22:2799 is your total.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31Another track that sold over a million copies.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Spent six weeks at number one.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37- Thanks very much. Now, Penni...- Yes. - How is this board?
0:22:37 > 0:22:39It's one of those boards where
0:22:39 > 0:22:41you're sitting at home and you go,
0:22:41 > 0:22:42"I know all of those."
0:22:42 > 0:22:44And then you get up here
0:22:44 > 0:22:46and you go, "Ahhh...."
0:22:46 > 0:22:47I'm going to go Bonnie Tyler,
0:22:47 > 0:22:49which is more probably shameful
0:22:49 > 0:22:50than My Heart Will Go On.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53No, that's a great song.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55I'm going to say
0:22:55 > 0:22:56Total Eclipse Of The Heart.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Sorry, I was assuming that was the one you were going to say.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02- That one. They're all good.- There you are. Now, 34 is your score.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04You want to score 64 or less. There's your red line.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Let's see how many people said Total Eclipse Of The Heart.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11It's right.
0:23:11 > 0:23:12You're through.
0:23:14 > 0:23:1628. Surprisingly low score.
0:23:16 > 0:23:1862 is your total.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24Yeah, she also had a hit in 1977 with It's A Heartache.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27Quite a low score that, isn't it?
0:23:27 > 0:23:28Again, another very, very big hit.
0:23:28 > 0:23:32Thanks very much, Richard. Now, we come to you, Johnny.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35You're on 25. The high scorers on 99, Pauline and Kath still.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39- 73 or less gets you through. How do you feel about this board?- Um...
0:23:39 > 0:23:41I should know the Morrissey one
0:23:41 > 0:23:45but I just can't bring it to mind.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48Thankfully...Blondie's still there,
0:23:48 > 0:23:50which I know.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53And that's Heart Of Glass.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55Heart Of Glass.
0:23:55 > 0:23:56There is your red line.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Let's see if you can get below that with Heart Of Glass.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03It's right.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Through you go, Johnny, well done.
0:24:07 > 0:24:0832.
0:24:08 > 0:24:1057 your total.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Well played, Johnny. That's the first of Blondie's six number one singles.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19- Gemma, do you know that Morrissey one?- Irish Blood English Heart?
0:24:19 > 0:24:21Irish Blood English Heart is the right answer.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23It's a very, very low scorer as well.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29- Black Eyed Peas, any idea?- No.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Don't Phunk With My Heart.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Which is really, really good advice.
0:24:34 > 0:24:35Now, you might know
0:24:35 > 0:24:38- the Feargal Sharkey.- A Good Heart.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Was a number one single.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45Thanks very much. At the end of our second round,
0:24:45 > 0:24:47I'm sorry to say, it's Pauline and Kath.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50I'm sorry, they were two fairly tough boards, I'm afraid.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52But the good news is we get to see you again next time.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54Thanks so much for playing. Pauline and Kath.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58- BOTH:- Thank you! - APPLAUSE
0:24:58 > 0:25:01But for the remaining two pairs it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Congratulations, Johnny and Gemma, Penni and Jo,
0:25:09 > 0:25:11you're now one step closer to the final and a chance
0:25:11 > 0:25:16to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at £5,250.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21We have to decide to who's going to go through to the final and play
0:25:21 > 0:25:24for that money, and to do that you are now going to go head to head,
0:25:24 > 0:25:27but you're now allowed to confer before you give your answers, and
0:25:27 > 0:25:30the first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:25:43 > 0:25:46We're going to show you five pictures of TV detectives.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50We need you to tell us the TV show they appear in, please.
0:25:50 > 0:25:51Thanks very much indeed.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54OK, let's reveal our five TV detectives and here they come.
0:26:16 > 0:26:17There we are, five TV detectives.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19All we need is the name of the shows
0:26:19 > 0:26:20in which they appear.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23Johnny and Gemma, you've played best throughout the show
0:26:23 > 0:26:25so you will go first.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28THEY WHISPER
0:26:35 > 0:26:39We're going to go with E being Monk.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41E, Monk.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44OK. Penni and Jo, do you think you can talk us
0:26:44 > 0:26:46through the rest of the board?
0:26:46 > 0:26:48A is The Wire.
0:26:48 > 0:26:52B is Morse, I'm guessing.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55And C is Diagnosis Murder.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58We love Diagnosis Murder!
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Couldn't have got through university without it.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Honestly, that's what we did at university -
0:27:02 > 0:27:04three years of Diagnosis Murder.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07- Shall we go for C? - We got to go for C.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09OK, C, Diagnosis Murder.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12We have Monk and Diagnosis Murder. Johnny and Gemma said Monk.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said Monk.
0:27:17 > 0:27:18It is Monk, of course.
0:27:23 > 0:27:2420.
0:27:27 > 0:27:32Now, Penni and Jo have said that C is Diagnosis Murder.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Let's see if that's right, and if it is
0:27:34 > 0:27:35let's see how many people said it.
0:27:37 > 0:27:38It's right.
0:27:39 > 0:27:43If this goes below 20 you will have broken serve.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46You have, look at that - 8. Very well done indeed.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52Well done, Penni and Jo, after one question you are up 1-0.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Yeah, very well done. Detective Steve Sloan.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57He plays Dick Van Dyke's son in that series
0:27:57 > 0:27:59and is actually Dick Van Dyke's son in real life as well.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01It's Barry Van Dyke.
0:28:01 > 0:28:03Now, A, you were right, is The Wire.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08That's Clarke Peters on the left.
0:28:08 > 0:28:09B, Inspector Morse.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16And D, that's David Tennant and Olivia Colman
0:28:16 > 0:28:18in the wonderful Broadchurch.
0:28:21 > 0:28:25Thanks very much indeed. Here comes your second question.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Johnny and Gemma, you have to win this one to stay in the game,
0:28:28 > 0:28:29so good luck. It concerns...
0:28:34 > 0:28:37We're going to show you five titles of Ian Fleming novels, but we're just
0:28:37 > 0:28:40going to show you the number of letters in each word of that title.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43Can you work out what the five titles are?
0:28:43 > 0:28:45OK, let's reveal our codes for Ian Fleming novels
0:28:45 > 0:28:47and here they come.
0:28:57 > 0:28:58I'll read those all again.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Penny and Jo, you will go first.
0:29:10 > 0:29:12It's quite a good job cos I think
0:29:12 > 0:29:17we only know one, and it's probably the one everybody else knew.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19We're going to have to go for 2, 2
0:29:19 > 0:29:20and hope that it's Dr No.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22OK, Dr No.
0:29:22 > 0:29:25Now then, Johnny and Gemma.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27Do you want to talk us through the board?
0:29:27 > 0:29:29I can't think of the top one.
0:29:29 > 0:29:33I think the second one is The Man With The Golden Gun.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36Think the fourth one is You Only Live Twice.
0:29:36 > 0:29:40I can't think of the bottom one but I think both of those
0:29:40 > 0:29:42will hopefully beat Dr No.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45- What do you think?- Erm...
0:29:45 > 0:29:47Shall we go with You Only Live Twice?
0:29:47 > 0:29:50Yeah, I think that's better just because of the amount of words
0:29:50 > 0:29:52- and it's a long title, so, yeah.- OK.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56OK, You Only Live Twice, say Johnny and Gemma.
0:29:56 > 0:29:58Penni and Jo said Dr No.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:30:02 > 0:30:03It's right.
0:30:05 > 0:30:0759.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13Now then, Johnny and Gemma.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15Fighting back with You Only Live Twice.
0:30:15 > 0:30:19Let's see if that is right for 3, 4, 4, 5.
0:30:22 > 0:30:24Very well done.
0:30:24 > 0:30:26Yup, you've broken back, very well done.
0:30:27 > 0:30:2818.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32Back in the game, Johnny and Gemma.
0:30:32 > 0:30:35Very exciting. After two questions it's 1-1.
0:30:35 > 0:30:38Well played. Good head-to-head here. You were right about
0:30:38 > 0:30:39The Man With The Golden Gun.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41That was Fleming's last Bond novel.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Now, 11, any ideas on that one?
0:30:48 > 0:30:49It's a Bond film,
0:30:49 > 0:30:51it's a Bond novel. It's Thunderball.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57And the bottom one?
0:30:57 > 0:31:00It's another Bond novel.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02- From Russia With Love.- Yeah.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07They're so awful until finally
0:31:07 > 0:31:09one just fits in there.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11Well done to our 100 on that board.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15Thanks, Richard. So, it all comes down to a third question.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17Whoever wins this goes through to the final and plays for
0:31:17 > 0:31:20that jackpot, so best of luck to both pairs. It concerns...
0:31:22 > 0:31:25LAUGHTER
0:31:25 > 0:31:28Sir Terry "Woden".
0:31:29 > 0:31:31What about that?
0:31:31 > 0:31:35We are going to show you five clues now to facts about the wonderful,
0:31:35 > 0:31:38charismatic, charming, handsome genius
0:31:38 > 0:31:40that is Sir Terry Wogan.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43Whichever team gives us the most obscure answer's going through
0:31:43 > 0:31:46to play for the jackpot, so very, very best of luck to both teams.
0:31:46 > 0:31:47Thanks very much.
0:31:47 > 0:31:51OK, let's reveal our five clues to facts about Terry Wogan.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10I'll read those all one last time.
0:32:27 > 0:32:31Five clues to facts about Sir Terry Wogan.
0:32:31 > 0:32:34Johnny and Gemma, you will go first.
0:32:47 > 0:32:50I think we're going to say the celebrity game show he hosted,
0:32:50 > 0:32:53as Blankety Blank.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55Blankety Blank say Johnny and Gemma.
0:32:55 > 0:32:59Now, Penni and Jo, the board is all yours.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01It's the last one that I think we know.
0:33:01 > 0:33:05- Is it...?- Is it The Floral Dance?
0:33:05 > 0:33:07We think it's The Floral Dance.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10OK, so we have Blankety Blank versus The Floral Dance.
0:33:10 > 0:33:13Johnny and Gemma said Blankety Blank. Let's see if that's right,
0:33:13 > 0:33:14let's see how many people said it.
0:33:16 > 0:33:17It's right.
0:33:19 > 0:33:2165 for Blankety Blank.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26That is what you have to beat, Penni and Jo, to go through to the final.
0:33:26 > 0:33:28Let's see if The Floral Dance is right,
0:33:28 > 0:33:30let's see if it can do it for you.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33It is right.
0:33:34 > 0:33:36Well done, you're through.
0:33:37 > 0:33:3833.
0:33:41 > 0:33:46Well done, Penni and Jo. That means you're through to the final, 2-1.
0:33:46 > 0:33:50Great stuff, very well played. I used to love that song when I was a kid.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52Absolutely loved it.
0:33:52 > 0:33:56Now, if you'd had to guess on a decade, what would you have gone for?
0:33:56 > 0:33:59- Probably...- '70s.- '70s.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02You'd be playing for the jackpot if you'd said it. It's the right answer.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05Would only have scored you 23 points.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07His city of birth...
0:34:07 > 0:34:08is Limerick.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13And the first name of his wife - it's the best answer on the board.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15- Helen.- Helen Wogan, yeah.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17Well done if you got all of those at home,
0:34:17 > 0:34:21unless you're Sir Terry, in which case, come on, you should do, really.
0:34:21 > 0:34:23Imagine Sir Terry at home going,
0:34:23 > 0:34:24"Oh, I know number three."
0:34:24 > 0:34:25LAUGHTER
0:34:27 > 0:34:29Thanks, Richard.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32So the pair leaving us, a heroic performance right across the show,
0:34:32 > 0:34:35nothing wrong with any of your answers in this head-to-head round.
0:34:35 > 0:34:39Well, we lost to a brilliant pair. We've had so much fun with them.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42Oh, you're lovely!
0:34:42 > 0:34:45You can continue this after the show. Johnny and Gemma,
0:34:45 > 0:34:48it's been lovely having you on the show, thank you so much for playing.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50Johnny and Gemma, everyone.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52APPLAUSE
0:34:52 > 0:34:54But for Penni and Jo it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:57 > 0:35:01Congratulations, Penni and Jo, you've fought off all the competition
0:35:01 > 0:35:03and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:11 > 0:35:15and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £5,250.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21You've done everything you needed to do this show. Fantastic.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24It was head-to-head last time, and then back you come,
0:35:24 > 0:35:27straight through to the final. That was quite a tough head-to-head.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29It was. They're ever so clever.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31OK, you get to choose your category from four options,
0:35:31 > 0:35:34and here are your four options. They read like this...
0:35:44 > 0:35:49- Um...no Diagnosis Murder?- Seems not.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52- I can't do sport.- No. - Do you want to go for a writer?
0:35:52 > 0:35:55We might have more chance of writers.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57Do you reckon? Or Madchester Scene.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01So you choose between Madchester and the Writers.
0:36:01 > 0:36:05I say we both probably have more chance at the Writers.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07But I don't know.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09- Bob Hope and No Hope. - We'll go for the...
0:36:09 > 0:36:13- British Writers.- OK, Post-War British Writers it is. Richard.
0:36:13 > 0:36:16We're looking for any novel released before the end of September 2013
0:36:16 > 0:36:18by any of the following three writers, please.
0:36:26 > 0:36:30So, any novel by any of those three. No short stories, collections,
0:36:30 > 0:36:34anything like that. Just stand-alone novels by one of those three writers.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37- Very, very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40OK, you've got up to a minute to come up with three answers
0:36:40 > 0:36:43and all you need to win that jackpot of £5,250
0:36:43 > 0:36:46is just one of those answers to be pointless. Remember, the answers
0:36:46 > 0:36:49you provide can come from any of these categories,
0:36:49 > 0:36:52and how you spread them across the categories is entirely up to you.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54- Are you ready?- Yes.- OK, let's put
0:36:54 > 0:36:5660 seconds up on the clock.
0:36:56 > 0:36:57Your time starts now.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00I don't know anything.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02The only think I can think of,
0:37:02 > 0:37:05Kingsley Amis, and I don't know...
0:37:05 > 0:37:06The book was different.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08The screenplay Only Two Can Play...?
0:37:08 > 0:37:13He wrote the novel, I can't remember...
0:37:13 > 0:37:15What it's called, brilliant.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17Anthony Burgess, what did he write?
0:37:17 > 0:37:20Oh, he wrote a lovely story about...
0:37:20 > 0:37:24- Was there a man...?- There was a man and there was picnics...
0:37:24 > 0:37:25Come on, 30 seconds.
0:37:25 > 0:37:29I honestly, hand on heart, don't know.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32Only Two Can Play for the screenplay,
0:37:32 > 0:37:33I can't remember
0:37:33 > 0:37:35what the novel was called.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38You are no longer my sister.
0:37:38 > 0:37:42You are nothing to me. Right, Kingsley Amis.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44We've got to have three answers.
0:37:44 > 0:37:45So let's say...
0:37:47 > 0:37:50..Only Two Can Play. It's not that.
0:37:50 > 0:37:55- Guess Who's Coming To Dinner. - And...- And...
0:37:55 > 0:37:57Didn't We Have A Lovely Time.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00OK, now, there is your minute up.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02I now need your three answers.
0:38:02 > 0:38:07We're going to say that JG Ballard wrote Didn't We Have A Lovely Time.
0:38:07 > 0:38:10- Didn't We Have A Lovely Time.- Yes.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12We're going to say that Kingsley Amis wrote
0:38:12 > 0:38:14the screenplay for Only Two Can Play...
0:38:14 > 0:38:17- No, he didn't, he wrote the novel that that is based on.- Based on.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20- So we're going to call it Only Two Can Play.- Only Two Can Play.
0:38:20 > 0:38:22And then we're going to come up with another name for Only Two Can Play,
0:38:22 > 0:38:25which is...um...
0:38:25 > 0:38:30- Mrs Griffith-Williams And Friends. - Mrs Griffith-Williams And Friends.
0:38:30 > 0:38:34- And this is by?- Kingsley Amis. - Yeah.- Yeah.- OK.
0:38:34 > 0:38:38Of the three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:38 > 0:38:39Only Two Can Play.
0:38:39 > 0:38:43Let's put Only Two Can Play, least that's based on something.
0:38:43 > 0:38:44So sorry.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46The least likely to be pointless?
0:38:46 > 0:38:49- Didn't We Have A Lovely Time. - By JG Ballard.
0:38:49 > 0:38:50OK, we'll pop that up first.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53- So sorry.- We are quite embarrassing.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56OK, let's put those up on the board in that order, and here they are.
0:39:02 > 0:39:06- I'm going to say it right now, best of luck.- Thanks!
0:39:06 > 0:39:10- Might need it.- Remember, only one of these answers has to be correct...
0:39:10 > 0:39:12LAUGHTER
0:39:12 > 0:39:14..and pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17But let's just say one of these days, if we recorded an infinite
0:39:17 > 0:39:21number of Pointlesses, eventually we would have to come up with a novel
0:39:21 > 0:39:23that somebody had genuinely written,
0:39:23 > 0:39:26so what would you do with that £5,250?
0:39:26 > 0:39:29Yeah, I could do what I like with it.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31I've got small children,
0:39:31 > 0:39:35so I would honestly put myself in a hotel for two nights, and sleep.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37Just sleep.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40- Jo?- Well, I don't know if I've mentioned, I'm doing a marathon...
0:39:40 > 0:39:44My husband and I both have charity places for an MS charity,
0:39:44 > 0:39:47very close to my heart, so I would allow myself
0:39:47 > 0:39:52a celebratory Chateau Lafite and put the rest on the charity page.
0:39:52 > 0:39:56Excellent. Your first answer was Didn't We Have A Lovely Time.
0:39:56 > 0:40:00Your least confident shot at the pointless jackpot.
0:40:00 > 0:40:03Obviously it has to be correct, then it has to be pointless.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06So, for £5,250, let's see how many people said JG Ballard wrote
0:40:06 > 0:40:08Didn't We Have A Lovely Time.
0:40:11 > 0:40:16Nope. No great surprises there. Not a correct answer.
0:40:16 > 0:40:19So only two more shots at today's jackpot,
0:40:19 > 0:40:23and we are working towards a possibly good answer.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26Your second answer was Mrs Griffith-Williams And Friends
0:40:26 > 0:40:27by Kingsley Amis.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29Let's see if it's right, shall we?
0:40:29 > 0:40:32If it happens to be right, it might win you £5,250
0:40:32 > 0:40:35but obviously it has to be correct first.
0:40:37 > 0:40:41Mrs Griffith-Williams And Friends, I'm afraid, an incorrect answer.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44Which means everything is now riding on your third and final answer.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47However, this is an answer based on something that you vaguely remember.
0:40:47 > 0:40:49- But it's not called that. - Are you sure?
0:40:49 > 0:40:52- I'm almost certain.- "Almost." Let's cling to "almost" for now.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55I'm pretty certainly sure.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58Only Two Can Play by Kingsley Amis. Let's just find out - if it's right
0:40:58 > 0:41:00and it it's pointless it'll win you that jackpot.
0:41:00 > 0:41:03Let's find out, for £5,250,
0:41:03 > 0:41:06if Only Two Can Play is a Kingsley Amis novel.
0:41:08 > 0:41:10No, I'm afraid it's not.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12I'm sorry.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that all-important
0:41:17 > 0:41:21pointless answer, which means you don't win today's jackpot of £5,250.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23That will roll over on to the next show. We've really enjoyed having
0:41:23 > 0:41:26you on both shows. You've been absolutely fabulous contestants.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29You do get to take home a Pointless trophy each, so well done for that.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37You've really proved yourself. You've been to the head-to-head
0:41:37 > 0:41:39two shows in a row, got through to the final here,
0:41:39 > 0:41:41so just a tough category. It happens sometimes.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44Only Two Can Play was based on the novel That Uncertain Feeling.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47- Which would have scored you 1 point. - Ohhh!
0:41:47 > 0:41:50And it's not Mrs Griffith-Williams And Friends,
0:41:50 > 0:41:54it's Mrs GRIFFITHS-Williams And Friends.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56And that was a pointless answer.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58Of course it wasn't really!
0:41:58 > 0:42:00LAUGHTER
0:42:00 > 0:42:02Didn't We Have A Lovely Time reminds us we must reinstitute
0:42:02 > 0:42:05our viewers' trip to Bangor Pier that we like to do every year.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07We had a picture of Bangor Pier once,
0:42:07 > 0:42:11we loved it so much we decided we'd go there each year so we must get back on that.
0:42:11 > 0:42:13Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers.
0:42:13 > 0:42:16I know some people at home will have liked this category.
0:42:21 > 0:42:24Well done if you said any of those. Some good books up there.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42Very well done to anyone who did well on that jackpot. Tough one.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45Thanks, Richard. Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you,
0:42:45 > 0:42:47Penni and Jo. We've loved having you on the show,
0:42:47 > 0:42:50thank you so much for playing. Penni and Jo.
0:42:50 > 0:42:53- APPLAUSE - Thank you!
0:42:53 > 0:42:56Sadly, Penni and Jo didn't win our jackpot, which means it rolls over
0:42:56 > 0:43:00on to the next show, when we will be playing for £6,250.
0:43:00 > 0:43:01AUDIENCE: Whoo!
0:43:01 > 0:43:03Join us next time to see if someone can win it.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08..and it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
