0:00:21 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:25 > 0:00:28the show where the aim of the game is to score as few points as you can.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31You do that by coming up with the answers no-one else could think of.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33Let's meet today's players.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39- Couple number one. - Hi, I'm Catherine.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42- This is my sister Kirsten, and we're from Edinburgh.- Couple number two.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hi, I'm Mark. This is my friend Jim,

0:00:44 > 0:00:47and we're both students at the University of Warwick.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50- Couple number three.- Hi, I'm Erin, this is my mum's partner Dave.

0:00:50 > 0:00:54- We've come from London and Coventry. - And couple number four.- Good day.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57I'm Dave from York and from Hampshire we have Richard,

0:00:57 > 0:00:59known to the world as Dickie.

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

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

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Thanks very much, all of you. We'll find out more about you as the show goes along.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09That just leaves one more person for me to introduce. He's got

0:01:09 > 0:01:12a thirst for knowledge but he will also drink dandelion and burdock.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Hiya. Hi, everyone.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23- Good afternoon to you. - And to you.- How are you?

0:01:23 > 0:01:27I'm very well, I'll tell you what, though. I hope I'm not breaking a terrible confidence

0:01:27 > 0:01:31here, we do sometimes pre-record these shows, they don't go out live.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33- I know. I know.- You're kidding me.

0:01:33 > 0:01:38No, sometimes we do. So when people watch this it might be in spring or in high summer,

0:01:38 > 0:01:39you never know.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42We are recording this, I don't think you can see my breath there.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46- I'm going to say it's fresh in the studio.- It is quite cold, isn't it?

0:01:46 > 0:01:48- Yeah.- Some days you can walk in and it's fine, some days

0:01:48 > 0:01:52- it's like someone has left a massive door open.- Yes.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54I'm going to say, because by the end of the show

0:01:54 > 0:01:57when I have a beard and bits of icicle hanging off it,

0:01:57 > 0:01:59I just want to let people know that's why.

0:01:59 > 0:02:03It is a bit like the re-creation of Shackleton's last voyage, isn't it?

0:02:03 > 0:02:06- Yes, a little. Just a bit.- Very similar.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09- Let's take a look at our crewmates. - Yes!- That's good, isn't it?

0:02:09 > 0:02:12- By which I mean our contestants. - Very good.- Thank you.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Two returning players, Jim and Mark did very well last time

0:02:15 > 0:02:16got through to the head-to-head.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20But Dickie and Dave, less so. Knocked out first round.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24Dave, who as we learned last time, used to be a Viking.

0:02:24 > 0:02:29- I think that's what the V stands for. - Dave Viking? Yeah, I think so.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31That's quick fun, isn't it?

0:02:31 > 0:02:36Now Round One today is a sort of round that everyone's going to be

0:02:36 > 0:02:40scared of, but actually I think when you actually play the round,

0:02:40 > 0:02:43- you might surprise yourself. - OK. Thanks very much indeed.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45As usual all of today's questions have been

0:02:45 > 0:02:47asked of 100 people before the show.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49Our contestants are on the hunt for those all-important pointless

0:02:49 > 0:02:51answers, that none of our 100 people gave.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54Each time that happens we will add £250 to the jackpot.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58Now, Hayley and Loz didn't win the jackpot last time

0:02:58 > 0:03:03so we add another £1,000 to that, so the jackpot starts off at £2,500.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Right, if everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16The pair with the highest score at the end of the round will be

0:03:16 > 0:03:20eliminated and also, please remember there's to be no conferring during the round.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23OK. Our first category is...

0:03:25 > 0:03:29Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, and who's going to go second?

0:03:29 > 0:03:32Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36OK, and the question concerns...

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Shakespeare Quotations. Richard.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44On each pass we'll show you seven Shakespeare quotations

0:03:44 > 0:03:48but we have left out one word from each one. Can you tell us what that word is, please?

0:03:48 > 0:03:51The more obscure answer you give, the lower your score will be.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54There's going to be 14 in all to have a go at at home, best of luck.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57Thanks very much indeed. So we're looking for the missing word which

0:03:57 > 0:03:59completes each of these Shakespeare quotations.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Here's our first board of seven.

0:04:27 > 0:04:28I will read those all one more time.

0:04:49 > 0:04:53Catherine and Kirsten, you all drew lots before the show and you are going to go first.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55- Kirsten, welcome to the show. - Thank you.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58- What do you do? - I'm a student at Glasgow University.

0:04:58 > 0:05:03- OK, from Edinburgh, at Glasgow. What year are you in?- I'm in fourth year.

0:05:03 > 0:05:08- Fourth year.- Yeah. Studying Veterinary Medicine but I'm into zoology at the moment.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10What do you like getting up to in your spare time.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13I really love music so I try to go and see a lot of live bands

0:05:13 > 0:05:17- and DJs around Glasgow. - Excellent, how's your Shakespeare?

0:05:17 > 0:05:19It's average I'd say, but I think I know a couple of them.

0:05:19 > 0:05:23Just trying to figure out which one is going to be best.

0:05:23 > 0:05:28I think I'm going to risk it and say the Hamlet quotation is, "Alas, poor Horick."

0:05:28 > 0:05:30- "Alas poor, Horick"?- Yeah.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32Says Kirsten. Let's see if that is right.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35If it is, let's see how many of our 100 people have said "Horick".

0:05:40 > 0:05:44Kirsten, I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer. I'm really sorry.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47Scores you the maximum of 100 points.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49Sorry, often tough on that first podium.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54Thanks very much indeed. Mark, welcome back.

0:05:54 > 0:05:59- Welcome back. Now you are an undergraduate at the University of Warwick.- Yes.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02- Remind us what you do there. - I'm studying economics.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04What do you get up to in your spare time?

0:06:04 > 0:06:08At Warwick I do a lot of theatre and a bit of singing.

0:06:08 > 0:06:12- I sing in an a cappella group. - Do you? What sort of size group?

0:06:12 > 0:06:16- There are 13 of us.- Do you perform around the university or...?

0:06:16 > 0:06:22Yes, we performed yesterday, in fact. We had a little thing. A concert.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25- Did you go along?- I didn't, unfortunately.- That was loyal, good.

0:06:29 > 0:06:33- Any particular pressing reason why not?- I was in rehearsal for another

0:06:33 > 0:06:36show at the time. I was there in spirit.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Mark, that's a show you can miss as well.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42So then, Mark, what about all these Shakespeare quotes.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45I think you're going to know all of them.

0:06:45 > 0:06:48Erm, it's safe to say I don't know all of them.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50Jim is pretty solid on Shakespeare.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53So I'm going to go for a safe one. I'm going to go for

0:06:53 > 0:06:55"Is this a dagger which I see before me?" Macbeth.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58"Is this a dagger which I see before me?"

0:06:58 > 0:07:00Let's see if that's right and see how many people said dagger.

0:07:07 > 0:07:0938.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Very well done, Mark, 38 for dagger.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15Said by Macbeth himself of course.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18You've said "Macbeth" an awful lot of times and you're not supposed to.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20- Oh, no!- It's supposed to bring a chill upon the studio...

0:07:20 > 0:07:22They do say so, yes.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Now, Erin, welcome to the show,

0:07:29 > 0:07:31great to have you here. What do you do?

0:07:31 > 0:07:34I actually work in cricket. I work with the England team

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- and a lot of former England players. - That's fun.

0:07:37 > 0:07:42- That is great, how long have you done that?- For three summers now.

0:07:42 > 0:07:46But you work with a lot of former cricketers. What do you do for them?

0:07:46 > 0:07:49A lot of appearances they might do for sponsors, that kind of thing,

0:07:49 > 0:07:52also we provide a team of former players that will take on local

0:07:52 > 0:07:54clubs and schools, that kind of thing.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56- A lot charitable work as well?- Exactly, yeah.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Fantastic. How are we feeling about this board?

0:07:58 > 0:08:00I'm going to have to go with the

0:08:00 > 0:08:03one that, if it's right, will be the highest-scoring.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06And say, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet."

0:08:06 > 0:08:07"A rose by any other name."

0:08:07 > 0:08:10I can guarantee it's not going to be quite as high-scoring as one

0:08:10 > 0:08:13answer we've had. But we'll find out. A rose,

0:08:13 > 0:08:14is that right and if it is,

0:08:14 > 0:08:16how many of our 100 people said rose?

0:08:18 > 0:08:20It's right.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22Well 38... Oh! 68, your score.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31Said by Juliet in the famous balcony scene of course.

0:08:31 > 0:08:35Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, Dave V. Dave V...

0:08:35 > 0:08:38- The V doesn't stand for Viking obviously.- It doesn't.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41That would be too good to be true. What does it stand for?

0:08:41 > 0:08:44- It stands for Vale. Second name. - Dave Vale.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46That's a good name, Dave Vale.

0:08:46 > 0:08:50- And he plays in a medieval rock band.- I used to.

0:08:50 > 0:08:54He was sacked from a medieval rock band. Quite recently.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57- He played the drums.- Yes.- Dave Vale!

0:08:57 > 0:08:58HE IMITATES DRUMS

0:08:59 > 0:09:02- Did you ever do that? You should have.- Constantly!

0:09:02 > 0:09:04Good. And that...?

0:09:04 > 0:09:07When you drum, did you ever have a hat with horns on?

0:09:07 > 0:09:11- I didn't, no. I missed a trick. - He'd become a hat with horns on.

0:09:11 > 0:09:12Yeah, no wonder you got fired.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14LAUGHTER

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Now, then, Dave.

0:09:16 > 0:09:21Dave. This board's all yours. Do you fancy having a punt at any of them?

0:09:21 > 0:09:25I'll have a punt. I think it's "full fathoms foul..."

0:09:25 > 0:09:28but I'm not sure about that. "Now is the winter of our

0:09:28 > 0:09:31"discontent made glorious summer by this son of York."

0:09:31 > 0:09:34And I think it's, "Playthings to wanton boys we are to the gods."

0:09:34 > 0:09:35Again I'm not sure about that.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38It's, "Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio."

0:09:38 > 0:09:40But, I'm going to go for last one, "Once more unto the breach,

0:09:40 > 0:09:44"dear friends, once more, or close the wall up with our English dead."

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Well done. Like that, "English dead!" Was that one of your songs?

0:09:49 > 0:09:51- English Dead!- English Dead!

0:09:51 > 0:09:54Dave V says, "Once more unto the breach." Let's see if that's

0:09:54 > 0:09:58right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:10:03 > 0:10:0559, well done.

0:10:08 > 0:10:12- 59 for breach.- Yes, said by Henry V himself, of course.

0:10:12 > 0:10:16Everyone taking advantage there of poor Kirsten's one-letter mistake to

0:10:16 > 0:10:20go for the obvious answers. It is "Yorick" not "Horick".

0:10:20 > 0:10:25That would've scored you... 50 points.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28Now, it's not "full fathom foul." Do you know that one?

0:10:28 > 0:10:30- "Five".- "Full fathom five".

0:10:30 > 0:10:34Absolutely. That would have scored you nine points.

0:10:34 > 0:10:35Now is the...?

0:10:35 > 0:10:39- "Winter".- Yep. Richard III, that would've scored 47.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41- It's not, "As playthings to wanton boys."- "Flies".

0:10:41 > 0:10:44"As flies to wanton boys are we to the gods."

0:10:44 > 0:10:47Five points for that so that's the best answer up there,

0:10:47 > 0:10:50- well done if you said that. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53Halfway through the round, let's take a look at the scores as they

0:10:53 > 0:10:56stand. 38 the best score, Mark, very well done and we've still got

0:10:56 > 0:10:59Jim, the Shakespeare expert to come. So we're expecting great things.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Listen, no pressure, Jim.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03None at all(!)

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Then up to 59 where we find Dave Vale and Dickie.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07Then up to 68 where we find Erin and Dave H.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10And then up to 100 where we find Kirsten and Catherine.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13Anything might happen in the next pass, Catherine, best of luck.

0:11:13 > 0:11:14We're going to come back down the line.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:11:19 > 0:11:22OK, we'll put seven more Shakespeare quotes on the board

0:11:22 > 0:11:23and here they come...

0:11:45 > 0:11:47I'll read those all again.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07Now, Dickie, remember we are looking for the missing

0:12:07 > 0:12:11words in each of these quotes from Shakespeare and you're going to

0:12:11 > 0:12:14try and find the one the fewest of our 100 people knew. Now, Dickie.

0:12:14 > 0:12:19- Yes.- You and Dave are celebrating 20 years of close friendship.- Yes.

0:12:19 > 0:12:20What are some of the things you've done,

0:12:20 > 0:12:23obviously you're appearing on Pointless as part

0:12:23 > 0:12:25of the celebrations, the whole year

0:12:25 > 0:12:27- is given up to this.- I did not know that.- Yeah, yeah.

0:12:27 > 0:12:32There are street parties going to be held in our part of the country.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35What else are you doing to celebrate or have you done in this

0:12:35 > 0:12:36anniversary year?

0:12:36 > 0:12:39We've both got really different music tastes, looking

0:12:39 > 0:12:43so similar it's hard to imagine that we have but, we thought it

0:12:43 > 0:12:48might be quite a nice idea to go to gigs that each other likes.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51- That was brave.- It was. Especially on my part.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55I took Dave to see Chas'n'Dave earlier this year, which he

0:12:55 > 0:13:00really enjoyed. And Dave took me to see a group called the Hawkwind.

0:13:00 > 0:13:02"The" Hawkwind!

0:13:02 > 0:13:06- Is it the Hawkwind?- I think it's just Hawkwind.- Yeah. Yeah.

0:13:06 > 0:13:11- They did have horns on their headwear!- Did they really?- They did.

0:13:11 > 0:13:12Yeah!

0:13:12 > 0:13:16Brilliant. OK, Dickie, which one of these quotes do you want to go for?

0:13:16 > 0:13:19I kind of knew that hopefully the Carry On films didn't let me

0:13:19 > 0:13:25down, so I am going to say, because I remember one of the characters

0:13:25 > 0:13:29saying it in Carry On Cleo, "Beware the ides of March."

0:13:29 > 0:13:32"Beware the ides of March," says Dickie. You're on 59.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34The high-scorers are Catherine and Kirsten on 100,

0:13:34 > 0:13:3640 or less gets you through.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39There's your red line, below that you are in Round Two.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41Let's see how many you score for the "ides of March".

0:13:48 > 0:13:5161. That takes you up to 120.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54I think you should be all right.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57- Yes, a big scorer, isn't it?- Yes.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00120 is a fair old score as well, yep, "Beware the ides of March."

0:14:00 > 0:14:03Beware 15th March we would say if we were talking today.

0:14:03 > 0:14:07Thanks very much indeed. Now, Dave H, welcome.

0:14:07 > 0:14:11- You've come here from Coventry? - I do.- What does the H stand for?

0:14:11 > 0:14:13- Hayward.- I thought you were going to say Hale for a minute,

0:14:13 > 0:14:15that would be just... Hale and Vale!

0:14:17 > 0:14:18Erm... What do you do, Dave?

0:14:18 > 0:14:23I'm a calibration engineer working in the aerospace industry.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26Very good. Now then, how is your Shakespeare?

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Not a good board to be honest.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31I knew...I think I know two on the board.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33I'm going to go for the top one,

0:14:33 > 0:14:36"The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune."

0:14:36 > 0:14:38"The slings and arrows," says Dave.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41The high scorers are Dickie and Dave on 120.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44You're on 68, 51 or less sees you through. There is your red line.

0:14:44 > 0:14:45Let's see if "arrows" was right.

0:14:45 > 0:14:47Let's see if it will get Dave below the red line.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55Yes, it will! Ooh, just, look at that!

0:14:56 > 0:14:58You needed 51. 48 you got.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02- 116 your total.- That's close, wasn't it?

0:15:02 > 0:15:06Said by Hamlet himself in the To Be Or Not To Be speech.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09- Thanks very much indeed. Now, Jim.- Hello.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12Oh, look at that! Bushy-tailed, bright-eyed, Jim.

0:15:12 > 0:15:16It's like being in a Shakespearean seminar, isn't it? It's amazing.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19That is a man who was rehearsing a show just yesterday.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23- What was the show?- Rehearsing School For Scandal, the Sheridan play.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26- So, you've got all your lines learnt?- More or less, yes.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28Ohhh, more or less. Ohhhh!

0:15:28 > 0:15:31Every director's nightmare, Jim, more or less.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33- It's the less bits they're worried about.- Definitely.

0:15:33 > 0:15:37I've got a bit of a reputation for ad-libbing in shows, which is

0:15:37 > 0:15:40deserved unfortunately but, yeah, it's not great.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44I like the way he said "deserved".

0:15:44 > 0:15:46LAUGHTER

0:15:46 > 0:15:49He suddenly came over all Cartman. It was brilliant.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52Now, Jim, there you are on 38, you mustn't score more

0:15:52 > 0:15:55than 81 or we'll have to say goodbye to you and that would be a travesty.

0:15:55 > 0:15:59We need from you a nice low-scoring word.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01I was going to go for "slings and arrows" but I'm going to

0:16:01 > 0:16:04go for, "He will come to her in yellow stockings." Twelfth Night.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06"Yellow stockings," says Jim.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08Here's your red line, nice and high.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12Let's see if "yellow stockings" get you below that red line?

0:16:15 > 0:16:17They certainly do, very well done, Jim.

0:16:21 > 0:16:22Look at that, nine!

0:16:22 > 0:16:25APPLAUSE

0:16:25 > 0:16:2747 is your total, Jim.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30Well played, Jim, very good answer.

0:16:30 > 0:16:35- I'm one of the country's leading Twelfth Night scholars.- Are you now?

0:16:35 > 0:16:38- In that I did it for O-level. - So did I. Yeah, yeah!

0:16:38 > 0:16:40So did I! I was thinking, "Yes, I know that too."

0:16:40 > 0:16:43- Ask me anything about it.- Yeah, I remember that.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45OK, thank you very much indeed.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49Now then, Catherine, there you are 100, you were the high-scorers.

0:16:49 > 0:16:53You might get through if you can score 19 or less.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Catherine, what do you do, by the way?

0:16:55 > 0:16:58- I'm a student at the University of St Andrews.- St Andrews.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01So none of you tempted to stay in Edinburgh? You wanted to get away.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04It's important, otherwise the temptation is to go home

0:17:04 > 0:17:06and get your washing done.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09What do you get up to when you're not studying?

0:17:09 > 0:17:13I love reading. But this isn't the best topic.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15Not Shakespeare so much.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18Which of these do you think?

0:17:18 > 0:17:20I think I know the Macbeth one.

0:17:20 > 0:17:22I think it's, "Out, out, brief stains!"

0:17:22 > 0:17:27I'm not sure though. I'm going to go for that, "stains".

0:17:27 > 0:17:29"Out, out, brief stains!" says Catherine.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32OK. "Brief stains". There's your red line,

0:17:32 > 0:17:35if you get below that with "stains" you're through to Round Two.

0:17:35 > 0:17:36Let's see if it's right.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39If it is, let's see how many people said "stains".

0:17:43 > 0:17:47Oh, dear. Bad luck, I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50Scores you the maximum of 100 points.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52It takes your total up to 200.

0:17:52 > 0:17:56- Not "stains", I'm afraid. Do you know?- "Candle".

0:17:56 > 0:17:59"Out, out, brief candle!" Yes. "Life is but a walking shadow."

0:17:59 > 0:18:02Six points as well, so it would have seen you through if you'd know it.

0:18:02 > 0:18:06- "O brave new"...?- World! Brave New World, sorry.- Yep.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08That would have scored 69 points. "If"...?

0:18:08 > 0:18:11BOTH: "If music be the food of love..."

0:18:11 > 0:18:13We knew that, of course. Orsino.

0:18:13 > 0:18:14"Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,

0:18:14 > 0:18:16"the appetite may sicken, and so die."

0:18:16 > 0:18:19- "And so die".- I was Orsino in the school play.- Were you?

0:18:19 > 0:18:22- Yeah, yeah.- Wow. - I ad-libbed a lot, though.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25LAUGHTER

0:18:25 > 0:18:27- Better at my Shakespeare. - I had a reputation for...

0:18:27 > 0:18:29- Was it "deserved"?- "Deserved!"

0:18:29 > 0:18:32I'm going to be honest with you.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35And the last one there, "This royal throne of kings,

0:18:35 > 0:18:37"this sceptred isle."

0:18:37 > 0:18:39Yeah. That would have scored you 26.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42Very well done to anyone who went all the way through that board,

0:18:42 > 0:18:44- very impressive. - Thank you very much indeed.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47So at the end of our first round, I'm afraid the pair heading home,

0:18:47 > 0:18:50our latest members of the 200 club, it's Catherine and Kirsten.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53- "Horick" is so close to "Yorick". - Hair's breadth. I know.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56Well, we had to say goodbye to you, but we will see you again next time.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59I look forward very much indeed, and I promise there'll be no more Shakespeare.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02Thanks so much for playing, Catherine and Kirsten.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05APPLAUSE

0:19:05 > 0:19:08But for the remaining three pairs it is now time for Round Two.

0:19:13 > 0:19:14So, three pairs remain.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17At the end of this round we'll have to say goodbye to another pair

0:19:17 > 0:19:18in time for our head-to-head.

0:19:18 > 0:19:20Dickie and Dave, welcome to Round Two.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22Yeah, it's great.

0:19:22 > 0:19:26Jim and Mark, very well done, our lowest-scoring pair there.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29Very good ensemble play from the pair of you.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32And Erin and Dave, a nice middling score from the pair of you

0:19:32 > 0:19:34so very well done. Very best of luck to all three pairs.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37Our category for round two is...

0:19:39 > 0:19:42Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:19:42 > 0:19:43who's going to go second?

0:19:43 > 0:19:46Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51OK, and the question concerns...

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Ensemble Casts, Richard.

0:19:57 > 0:20:00We're about to show you two photographs from films which

0:20:00 > 0:20:02famously had ensemble casts.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05One of the photographs is of The Magnificent Seven,

0:20:05 > 0:20:07and one of the photographs is of Reservoir Dogs.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10We need you to name any actor in either of the photographs, please.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Very best of luck.

0:20:12 > 0:20:13Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:20:13 > 0:20:17So we're looking for the name of anyone in either of these pictures

0:20:17 > 0:20:18and here are the two images.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23OK.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31There we are. Now, Mark.

0:20:31 > 0:20:36This is about as bad as a round could possibly get for me.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39I literally have not got a clue about any of them.

0:20:39 > 0:20:43OK, I'm just going to...say a name. I'm really sorry, Jim.

0:20:43 > 0:20:47Let's go with... I'm just going to say Clint Eastwood.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50Clint Eastwood, says Mark. Let's see if that's right and if it is,

0:20:50 > 0:20:53let's see how many of our 100 people said Clint Eastwood.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58Oh, bad luck, Mark.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,

0:21:00 > 0:21:03- scores you the maximum of 100 points.- Unlucky, Mark.

0:21:03 > 0:21:08It's not a bad guess at all but, yeah, not in either of those photos.

0:21:08 > 0:21:13- Thanks very much. Now then, Erin. Is this any better for you?- No.

0:21:13 > 0:21:17- That might be a relief for Jim and Mark there.- Yeah.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19I have no idea.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21I'm just going to guess a name.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24He's not even an actor but you never know.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27I'm literally just going to go with the name...John Smith.

0:21:28 > 0:21:31Oh, you're going to make up an actor as well!

0:21:33 > 0:21:38Let's find out. Is John Smith in either of those pictures?

0:21:40 > 0:21:44No. Bad luck. Oh, that's a lifeline, Jim and Mark.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48I'm sorry, that's an incorrect answer.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50That scores you 100 points. But you're in good company.

0:21:50 > 0:21:54I thought this round would be easier than the Shakespeare round,

0:21:54 > 0:21:56I'm going to be honest with you.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Thanks very much. Now, Dickie.

0:21:58 > 0:22:04This, at long last, is going to land on fertile ground over there.

0:22:04 > 0:22:05No.

0:22:05 > 0:22:08LAUGHTER

0:22:08 > 0:22:12Because it's not Carry On or James Bond.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15I know one of the guys from Reservoir Dogs

0:22:15 > 0:22:18but I just can't think of his name.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20Which is probably the same as everyone else.

0:22:20 > 0:22:24I'll give you a clue, it's not John Smith.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27Ah, that's a game changer.

0:22:27 > 0:22:31In that case... No, at the moment it could be anybody's game.

0:22:31 > 0:22:35I'm really not sure, so I'm going to have to say Steve McQueen.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38Let's see if that's right

0:22:38 > 0:22:41and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Steve McQueen.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45Ah!

0:22:45 > 0:22:47Listen to that sweet music.

0:22:49 > 0:22:5038.

0:22:54 > 0:22:5638 for Steve McQueen. Very well done, Dickie.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59Yeah, that's how you guess, Dickie. Very well played.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02And there he is in the bottom picture.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05OK. Halfway through the round, let's take a look at those scores.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08Just the two scores between the three of you.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11Dickie and Dave on 38. Looking very strong.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14Then it's up to 100, where we find Erin and Dave and Mark and Jim.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17So, yes. Dave and Jim, it's between the pair of you.

0:23:17 > 0:23:21Best of luck. Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:23:24 > 0:23:25OK, Dave.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28We're looking for any cast member

0:23:28 > 0:23:31featured in either of these photographs. Obviously you're going

0:23:31 > 0:23:33to try and find the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36Look at that - Dickie's left you in a very strong position.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39The high scorers jointly on 100, you're on 38.

0:23:39 > 0:23:4161 or less gets you through.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43This kind of plays right into my wheelhouse

0:23:43 > 0:23:46cos they're both favourite films of mine.

0:23:46 > 0:23:50I'm thinking I might have a shot at a pointless.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53- Horst Buchholz.- Horst Buchholz.

0:23:53 > 0:23:57Horst Buchholz. Here comes your red line.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00Let's see if Horst Buchholz can get you below that.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02Let's see if it can get you a pointless answer,

0:24:02 > 0:24:05that would be fantastic. Is it right, how many people said it?

0:24:07 > 0:24:08It's right.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12You're in the Head-to-Head.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17And that scores you two!

0:24:18 > 0:24:21That's a great answer, Dave.

0:24:21 > 0:24:24I'm sorry it didn't net you a £250 bonus for the jackpot.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27But it takes your total up to 40. Very well done.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30Erin, if only you'd made up the name Horst Buchholz.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33LAUGHTER

0:24:33 > 0:24:36There he is in The Magnificent Seven.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Thanks, Richard. Dave.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42Now, as I said, it's between you and Jim.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45How well do you know either of these films?

0:24:45 > 0:24:51The top film, not at all. The one on the bottom, I think I know a couple.

0:24:51 > 0:24:54I'm going to go for James Coburn.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57James Coburn, says Dave. Let's see if that's right.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Let's see how many people said James Coburn.

0:25:02 > 0:25:03It's right.

0:25:08 > 0:25:1014. Very well done indeed.

0:25:15 > 0:25:19Well played, Dave. There he is, unmistakable figure of James Coburn.

0:25:19 > 0:25:24Did you know Chris Evans bought James Coburn's car for £5.5 million?

0:25:24 > 0:25:29- I do know. That's a car! What sort of car was it?- A Mini.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33It was a Ferrari, apparently.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36At the time it was the most expensive car ever bought.

0:25:36 > 0:25:38Thanks very much. Now, Jim, you have a target.

0:25:38 > 0:25:42- I do.- You also have, courtesy of Dave over there,

0:25:42 > 0:25:44an indication of the kind of name we're looking for,

0:25:44 > 0:25:49if you want to score under 14.

0:25:49 > 0:25:53Might be tricky. I know a few names. I knew McQueen and Coburn.

0:25:53 > 0:25:55The only other one I can name is Yul Brynner.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59For Reservoir Dogs, I can pick out Tim Roth, Michael Madsen

0:25:59 > 0:26:04and Quentin Tarantino. I'm going to hope that people have forgotten that

0:26:04 > 0:26:06Quentin Tarantino is in his own film.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08- So, let's say Quentin Tarantino. - Quentin Tarantino.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10Here's your red line.

0:26:10 > 0:26:1213 or less is what you want.

0:26:12 > 0:26:15Let's find out how many people said Quentin Tarantino.

0:26:17 > 0:26:18It's right.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Still going down.

0:26:23 > 0:26:24Still going down.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26Oh, no! 15!

0:26:26 > 0:26:28Oh, no!

0:26:30 > 0:26:32Jim, I'm really sorry.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35That's a great answer and I think very,

0:26:35 > 0:26:37very well thought through as well.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39You needed 14 to tie.

0:26:39 > 0:26:42I'm afraid you got 15. That's so unfair.

0:26:42 > 0:26:46Not unfair, it's just unfortunate.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48- Deserved.- 115.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49Deserved, oh!

0:26:53 > 0:26:55That was so unlucky. Really well played.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57The other two answers you could have given me -

0:26:57 > 0:27:02- Tim Roth would have scored 18.- OK.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05- Michael Madsen... - Oh, no, don't. Don't.

0:27:05 > 0:27:06OK, I won't tell you.

0:27:09 > 0:27:12Michael Madsen would have scored 16.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15There's other names up there that you'll know

0:27:15 > 0:27:18and if you got the guy in the shell suit you'd be laughing.

0:27:18 > 0:27:20Let's go through both of the pictures.

0:27:20 > 0:27:22We'll start with The Magnificent Seven.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24We've had one of the best answers - Horst Buchholz.

0:27:24 > 0:27:28You could also have Brad Dexter, would have scored you two.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31There's Robert Vaughn.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34Would have scored you 12. Still on British TV now, of course.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37Charles Bronson, who would have scored you 14.

0:27:37 > 0:27:41And Yul Brynner, he would have scored you 54 points.

0:27:41 > 0:27:42No point going for Yul Brynner.

0:27:42 > 0:27:46Well done if you got it at home. Much better than scoring 100.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49The top one, there is a pointless answer in there.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51He played crime boss Joe Cabot.

0:27:51 > 0:27:56He's obscured there. Lawrence Tierney.

0:27:56 > 0:27:58Very well done if you said him.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00On your far right is another very good answer.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Also very well known as an author. Eddie Bunker.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05He would have scored you one point.

0:28:05 > 0:28:09Now, the man in the shell suit, Sean Penn's brother. Chris Penn.

0:28:09 > 0:28:12Would have scored you eight points.

0:28:12 > 0:28:15Steve Buscemi, he would have scored 15 points.

0:28:15 > 0:28:19And Harvey Keitel, he would have scored you 21 points.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22Very well done to anyone who got a pointless answer there.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25- Well done to anyone who didn't get 100.- Thanks, Richard.

0:28:25 > 0:28:30So at the end of our second round, I'm afraid it's Jim and Mark.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32Head-to-Head last time.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35I know - an audible "Ahh" from the audience. We really enjoyed

0:28:35 > 0:28:38having you on the show, it's been great fun and every time we've had

0:28:38 > 0:28:41to ask you something, Jim, you've been priceless.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43LAUGHTER

0:28:43 > 0:28:45I could listen to Jim talking for days.

0:28:45 > 0:28:50- Come back another time. Under an assumed name.- I'll try my best.

0:28:50 > 0:28:53Great to have you on the show, Jim and Mark, thanks for playing.

0:28:53 > 0:28:56CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:28:56 > 0:28:59For the remaining two pairs it's now time for the Head-to-Head.

0:29:04 > 0:29:07Congratulations, Dickie and Dave V, Erin and Dave H.

0:29:07 > 0:29:10You are now one step closer to the final and a chance to play for

0:29:10 > 0:29:14our jackpot, which currently stands at £2,500.

0:29:16 > 0:29:19Now we have to decide who's going to play for that money

0:29:19 > 0:29:21and to do that you're going to go head-to-head.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24You are now allowed to confer and the first pair to win two questions

0:29:24 > 0:29:26will be playing for the jackpot.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29Very best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the Head-to-Head.

0:29:33 > 0:29:37OK, here comes your first question. And it concerns...

0:29:41 > 0:29:44We're going to give you the names of five Dan Brown novels

0:29:44 > 0:29:47but we're only showing you the number of letters in each word.

0:29:47 > 0:29:50- Can you tell us what the novels are? Very best of luck.- Thanks very much.

0:29:50 > 0:29:55OK, let's reveal our five Dan Brown novels, and here they are.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05I'll read them one last time.

0:30:10 > 0:30:13Dickie and Dave, you've played best throughout the show,

0:30:13 > 0:30:16- so you get to go first.- Right.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21I'm hoping I'm counting these letters right.

0:30:21 > 0:30:24I'm going to go for 9 and 5.

0:30:24 > 0:30:25Deception Point.

0:30:25 > 0:30:28Deception Point, say Dickie and Dave.

0:30:28 > 0:30:33Deception Point. Now, Erin and Dave, he sounds like he knows, doesn't he?

0:30:33 > 0:30:37- Yeah!- Do you want to talk us through the other ones?

0:30:37 > 0:30:42We'd like to but we can't! We only know the top one.

0:30:42 > 0:30:46So, yeah, we've got no choice. The Da Vinci Code.

0:30:46 > 0:30:49OK, Dickie and Dave said Deception Point. Let's see if that's right

0:30:49 > 0:30:52and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:30:54 > 0:30:55It's right.

0:31:01 > 0:31:0312 for Deception Point.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10Erin and Dave H have gone for The Da Vinci Code. Let's see if

0:31:10 > 0:31:13that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said that.

0:31:15 > 0:31:17It's right.

0:31:20 > 0:31:2141.

0:31:23 > 0:31:25Very well done, Dickie and Dave.

0:31:25 > 0:31:29- After one question you are up 1-0.- Well played.

0:31:29 > 0:31:33It's a thriller about a scientific discovery in the Arctic Circle.

0:31:33 > 0:31:36Let's go through the rest of these. The next one down...

0:31:41 > 0:31:42About a forgetful drummer.

0:31:42 > 0:31:45LAUGHTER

0:31:48 > 0:31:49The next one down...

0:31:53 > 0:31:55And the bottom one, released in 2013...

0:32:00 > 0:32:02So Digital Fortress best answer on the board.

0:32:02 > 0:32:05Thanks very much indeed. OK, here comes your second question.

0:32:05 > 0:32:08Erin and Dave H, you get to answer this one first but you have to

0:32:08 > 0:32:12win it to stay in the game, so best of luck. It concerns...

0:32:17 > 0:32:21We're going to show you five picture clues to the titles

0:32:21 > 0:32:23of Elvis Top 40 singles. We need you to give us

0:32:23 > 0:32:28the title of the song these clues most closely represent.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30OK, let's reveal out our five picture clues to Elvis songs,

0:32:30 > 0:32:31and here they come.

0:32:53 > 0:32:57OK. Erin and Dave H, you will go first.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00WHISPERING

0:33:11 > 0:33:16- OK.- OK, we're going to go for E, Jailhouse Rock.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19Jailhouse Rock. Now then.

0:33:19 > 0:33:24Dickie and Dave V, can you talk us through that board?

0:33:24 > 0:33:28Pretty much. We weren't sure on the first one, actually.

0:33:28 > 0:33:31- The second one...- Wooden Heart.

0:33:31 > 0:33:33Blue Suede Shoes.

0:33:33 > 0:33:36And Surrender, obviously, that one.

0:33:36 > 0:33:40- So...what do you reckon? - I say Wooden Heart.- Yeah?

0:33:40 > 0:33:44- Wooden Heart, please.- OK, Wooden Heart, say Dickie and Dave V.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46We have Jailhouse Rock versus Wooden Heart.

0:33:46 > 0:33:48Erin and Dave H said Jailhouse Rock.

0:33:48 > 0:33:50Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54It's right.

0:33:57 > 0:33:5850.

0:34:01 > 0:34:0550 for Jailhouse Rock. Dickie and Dave V have gone for Wooden Heart.

0:34:05 > 0:34:08Let's see if that's right and how many people said that.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11It's right.

0:34:12 > 0:34:14If this goes below 50 you are through...

0:34:14 > 0:34:18Yes, you are! There we are, 45.

0:34:18 > 0:34:21Not a lot in it but Dickie and Dave V, after only two questions,

0:34:21 > 0:34:23you are through to the final.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26Well played, gents. Let's fill in the rest of this board.

0:34:26 > 0:34:27A, a very minor hit...

0:34:36 > 0:34:38I thought it might score a few more than that.

0:34:45 > 0:34:48Thanks very much, Richard. OK, there we are. The pair leaving us at

0:34:48 > 0:34:51the end of the Head-to-Head, I'm afraid it's Erin and Dave.

0:34:51 > 0:34:52This is great news for us

0:34:52 > 0:34:54because it means we get to see you again next time.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57You'll come back, maybe you'll go even further. But it's been great

0:34:57 > 0:35:00having you on the show. We look forward to seeing you next time.

0:35:00 > 0:35:01Erin and Dave.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04APPLAUSE

0:35:04 > 0:35:08For Dickie and Dave V it's now time for our Pointless Final.

0:35:11 > 0:35:14Congratulations, Dickie and Dave, you fought off all the competition

0:35:14 > 0:35:17and you've won our coveted Pointless Trophy.

0:35:23 > 0:35:25You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,

0:35:25 > 0:35:29which stands at £2,500.

0:35:33 > 0:35:34So there you are.

0:35:34 > 0:35:39Among the many trophies you will have to show for your 20 years

0:35:39 > 0:35:41of friendship, you've now got a Pointless one to add that.

0:35:41 > 0:35:45You've done so well. Really, really good answers. Horst Buchholz.

0:35:45 > 0:35:51I'm sorry that didn't score zero for you but it did most of the way.

0:35:51 > 0:35:54It shows you what wasting your life watching cowboys can do to you.

0:35:54 > 0:35:58- And reading Dan Brown - Deception Point.- I've only ever read one.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00And I thought it was rubbish.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04What would you like to see come up in this round?

0:36:04 > 0:36:07You've been quite lucky - things have fallen pretty well for you.

0:36:07 > 0:36:09Things have fallen in our lap.

0:36:09 > 0:36:13Let the gods throw them as they may.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15You kick this round off by choosing your category,

0:36:15 > 0:36:18and here are your four options. They are...

0:36:29 > 0:36:32There's one...sticks out to me.

0:36:32 > 0:36:35I reckon Monty Python, Sporting Finals are going to be your...

0:36:35 > 0:36:38I'm thinking Monty Python, to be honest.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40So, my Belgium knowledge, I'll stand aside

0:36:40 > 0:36:42so you can go ahead with those.

0:36:42 > 0:36:46- Your waffle knowledge. - That's right, yeah.

0:36:46 > 0:36:49- Yeah, Monty Python, please. - OK, Monty Python it is.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52Let's take a look at your three options. Very different options.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54We're looking for...

0:36:54 > 0:36:57any cheese mentioned in the famous cheese shop sketch.

0:36:57 > 0:37:00So, the original cheese shop sketch, any cheese mentioned in that.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03It's hard to say "cheese shop sketch."

0:37:03 > 0:37:07This is easy - any film directed by Terry Gilliam.

0:37:07 > 0:37:11No short film, TV films, no documentaries, anything like that.

0:37:11 > 0:37:15Or any country visited by Michael Palin in Around The World In 80 Days.

0:37:15 > 0:37:18So any country he actually stops in.

0:37:18 > 0:37:21By country we mean a sovereign state that's a member of the UN.

0:37:21 > 0:37:25So, any cheese shop sketch - phew!

0:37:25 > 0:37:26Any film directed by Terry Gilliam

0:37:26 > 0:37:30or any Around The World in 80 Days country. Very best of luck, guys.

0:37:30 > 0:37:31Thanks very much indeed.

0:37:31 > 0:37:34You've got up to one minute to come up with three answers

0:37:34 > 0:37:37and all you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those answers

0:37:37 > 0:37:40to be pointless. Remember, the answers you provide can come from

0:37:40 > 0:37:43any of these categories, and how you spread them across the categories

0:37:43 > 0:37:46is entirely up to you. They can all come from the same one or two

0:37:46 > 0:37:49from one, one from another. Completely up to you. Are you ready?

0:37:49 > 0:37:53- BOTH: Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.

0:37:53 > 0:37:55Your time starts now.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58OK, what I think I might do, Dave, is go off, have a nice cup

0:37:58 > 0:38:01of Horlicks, and let you carry on with it because...

0:38:01 > 0:38:06Brazil... Um...Time Bandits.

0:38:06 > 0:38:0712 Monkeys.

0:38:07 > 0:38:10I can't think of any other ones.

0:38:10 > 0:38:13He did one about Don Quixote.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16I've got a cheese as well - Yarg. I think we should go for that.

0:38:16 > 0:38:20- Yarg?- It's a... Trust me, it's... - It is a cheese?

0:38:20 > 0:38:23It is a cheese and it's in the sketch. I'm sure it's in the sketch.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25- Right, OK.- Um...

0:38:25 > 0:38:29Just trying to think of some more films by Terry Gilliam.

0:38:29 > 0:38:34Brazil, Time Bandits...oh, the one...the Arthurian one.

0:38:34 > 0:38:36In New York.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38Fisher King.

0:38:38 > 0:38:43So, if we say Fisher King and Time Bandits and Yarg.

0:38:43 > 0:38:46- You are so good.- Ten seconds left.

0:38:46 > 0:38:48- Yeah, we'll do that.- OK.- OK.

0:38:48 > 0:38:51- OK, you're happy with those? - Yes.- Very well done.

0:38:51 > 0:38:54We will stop the clock there. What are your three answers going to be?

0:38:54 > 0:39:00We've got two answers from Films By Terry Gilliam - The Fisher King.

0:39:00 > 0:39:04- And...Time Bandits. - And Time Bandits.

0:39:04 > 0:39:09And a cheese from the cheese shop sketch - it's not easy to say that!

0:39:09 > 0:39:13- Yarg.- Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:39:13 > 0:39:16I think Yarg. If it's right I think that might be pointless.

0:39:16 > 0:39:21OK, Yarg we will put last. Least likely to be pointless?

0:39:21 > 0:39:27I'm thinking Time Bandits. I'm not even sure it's by Terry Gilliam now.

0:39:27 > 0:39:28- It might be.- Oh!- We'll give it a go.

0:39:28 > 0:39:31- I sounded really convincing, didn't I?- You did! I fell for it.

0:39:31 > 0:39:33We'll put Time Bandits first.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35OK, let's pop those answers up on the board in that order

0:39:35 > 0:39:36and here they are.

0:39:42 > 0:39:45Very best of luck. Your first answer was Time Bandits.

0:39:45 > 0:39:48Remember, only one of these answers has to be correct for you

0:39:48 > 0:39:50to win that jackpot - £2,500.

0:39:50 > 0:39:54Quite a nice jackpot. What would you do with your share of that, Dickie?

0:39:54 > 0:39:57Well, me and my wife, hopefully, all being well,

0:39:57 > 0:40:00buying our first home soon

0:40:00 > 0:40:02and the kitchen needs a little bit of tweaking,

0:40:02 > 0:40:05so we'd put some towards that and also there's a little charity

0:40:05 > 0:40:10we support and we're going to give a little bit to them as well.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12Very good. Dave, how about you?

0:40:12 > 0:40:15Beer, heavy metal and women.

0:40:15 > 0:40:19LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:40:21 > 0:40:23I can't believe you get a clap for that.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27OK, very best of luck.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29Your first answer was Time Bandits. Has to be correct

0:40:29 > 0:40:32then it has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.

0:40:32 > 0:40:36Let's find out, for £2,500, how many of our 100 people thought

0:40:36 > 0:40:38Time Bandits was a Terry Gilliam film?

0:40:41 > 0:40:42It's right.

0:40:48 > 0:40:50If this goes all the way down to zero

0:40:50 > 0:40:52you'll be leaving here with £2,500.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54Six.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01Of course it's a Terry Gilliam film. You start to doubt everything...

0:41:01 > 0:41:04- I doubted myself. - I know. Happens all the time.

0:41:04 > 0:41:07- I mean, I don't know with you... - All the time!

0:41:07 > 0:41:11OK, not a pointless answer. Only two more shots at today's jackpot.

0:41:11 > 0:41:13Your second answer was The Fisher King,

0:41:13 > 0:41:15another Terry Gilliam film.

0:41:15 > 0:41:18Let's find out if it's correct and if it's pointless.

0:41:18 > 0:41:22For £2,500, how many people said The Fisher King?

0:41:24 > 0:41:30Well, it's right. Your first answer took us all the way down to six.

0:41:30 > 0:41:33Your second answer, The Fisher King, takes us down the teens

0:41:33 > 0:41:37and into single figures. It passes six, down it goes...

0:41:37 > 0:41:38You did it!

0:41:38 > 0:41:40CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:41:40 > 0:41:43That's fantastic. Very well done.

0:41:53 > 0:41:57Congratulations, Dickie and Dave. Fisher King was a pointless answer,

0:41:57 > 0:42:01which means you go home with our jackpot of £2,500.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10That was great. Congratulations, guys, very well deserved.

0:42:10 > 0:42:12It's been great fun having you on the show.

0:42:12 > 0:42:14If we had to use your last answer, Yarg,

0:42:14 > 0:42:16would have scored you 100 points.

0:42:16 > 0:42:19- Not in the sketch, I'm afraid. - Really?- Yeah.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22There's plenty of cheese that are, though. Let's start with those.

0:42:22 > 0:42:24You could have had...

0:42:27 > 0:42:31Limburger, Smoked Austrian, Boursin, Dorset Blue Vinny.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34There's Emmental, Lancashire, Norwegian Jarlsberger,

0:42:34 > 0:42:37Port Salut, Red Windsor, White Stilton and, of course,

0:42:37 > 0:42:40Venezuelan Beaver Cheese.

0:42:40 > 0:42:43All of those were pointless answers.

0:42:43 > 0:42:46Let's take a look at the Terry Gilliam films.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54Well done if you said any of those.

0:43:02 > 0:43:04Very well done if you got a pointless answer at home.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06Thanks very much indeed.

0:43:06 > 0:43:09Well, thanks once again to our winning players, Dickie and Dave,

0:43:09 > 0:43:13who go away with today's jackpot of £2,500. Very well done.

0:43:13 > 0:43:16APPLAUSE

0:43:16 > 0:43:19Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge

0:43:19 > 0:43:22- to the test on Pointless. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
