0:00:20 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:24 > 0:00:27the show where the aim of the game is to score as few points as you can.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29And you do that by coming up with the answers
0:00:29 > 0:00:30no-one else could think of.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Let's meet today's players.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37And couple number one.
0:00:37 > 0:00:38Hi, I'm Emily.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40I'm originally from the States but now live in Devon
0:00:40 > 0:00:42and this is my friend Suzie from London.
0:00:42 > 0:00:43Couple number two.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45I'm Leo and this is Jack and we're housemates
0:00:45 > 0:00:47and we're at Manchester University together.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Couple number three.
0:00:49 > 0:00:50Hello, I'm Toby, this is Sam.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53We're also housemates who study at Middlesex University.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55And, finally, couple number four.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Hi there, I'm Geoff, this is my lovely wife Lyn
0:00:57 > 0:01:00and we're both from Royal Leamington Spa.
0:01:00 > 0:01:01And these are today's contestants.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04APPLAUSE
0:01:04 > 0:01:05Thanks very much, all of you.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07We'll find out more about each of you throughout the show
0:01:07 > 0:01:10so that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13He's a man so clever he managed to have his broadband fitted
0:01:13 > 0:01:14after just 16 phone calls.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Hiya. Hi, everybody.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20Afternoon.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24- Good afternoon to you. - And to you.- It's awful.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27It's really stopped me ever from moving again,
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- knowing that you have to have broadband put in again.- Yeah.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34Literally every stress there's ever been about moving is as nothing
0:01:34 > 0:01:37- to when you sit there and just think, "Oh."- The impotence.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Yeah, that as well. That and broadband
0:01:40 > 0:01:42are the two things that would stop me moving.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45We've only got one returning pair from last time, that's Toby and Sam.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47We saw very little of them as well,
0:01:47 > 0:01:50got knocked out in the first round so very little experience on any
0:01:50 > 0:01:52of the podiums here today, should be a very interesting one.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54Podium four, we like it
0:01:54 > 0:01:57when we have couples whose names make the name of a celebrity, don't we?
0:01:57 > 0:02:01- We do.- So we had Moira and Stewart, which we like. We had Bruce and Lee.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04Now we've got the founder of ELO, Jeff Lynne, on podium four
0:02:04 > 0:02:06which is lovely.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, all our questions on Pointless
0:02:09 > 0:02:11have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:11 > 0:02:12Our contestants here are on the hunt
0:02:12 > 0:02:14for those all-important pointless answers.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17If you find one of those we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Now, Danny and Simone didn't win the jackpot last time so we add
0:02:20 > 0:02:25another £1,000 to that, so today's jackpot starts off at £3,000.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37OK, now, the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:37 > 0:02:39will be eliminated.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Remember that and do what you can to make sure it's not you.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Our first category today...
0:02:44 > 0:02:47..is Chemical Elements. Chemical Elements. Can you all decide
0:02:47 > 0:02:50in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:02:50 > 0:02:52And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Right, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:03:09 > 0:03:10Richard.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Yeah, we're looking for the name of any chemical element
0:03:12 > 0:03:15on the periodic table as of January 2014
0:03:15 > 0:03:17that contain both the letters I and N, please.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20So, any chemical element as of January 2014
0:03:20 > 0:03:22that contain the letters I and N.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Very, very best of luck.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Thanks very much indeed. Now, Suzie, welcome. Good to have you here.
0:03:27 > 0:03:31- From London?- Yes.- How do you and Emily know each other?
0:03:31 > 0:03:34We know each other through Emily's sister Molly
0:03:34 > 0:03:36and we're on a quiz team together.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39- OK, so not the first time you've been grilled like this?- No.
0:03:39 > 0:03:40OK, and what do you do, Suzie?
0:03:40 > 0:03:43I'm a fundraiser for a university in London.
0:03:43 > 0:03:44Do you come up with the initiatives?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47The actual fundraising things, or do you hand that to other people?
0:03:47 > 0:03:51Yeah, so we look after thinking about what we should be doing
0:03:51 > 0:03:54and then we do some of it and we get some other people to do some of it.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56And you've got a whole student body there,
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- all eager to do things to raise money.- We do. Absolutely.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Now, Suzie, chemical elements. How are we feeling about that?
0:04:01 > 0:04:04I did chemistry at AS level
0:04:04 > 0:04:09- so I'm hoping that I could do something here.- OK.
0:04:09 > 0:04:10I wouldn't be at all surprised
0:04:10 > 0:04:13- if there are some pointless answers out there.- OK.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17I'm going to go for, I don't now how to pronounce it but antimony.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18- Antimony.- Yes.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20Let's see if that's right.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Let's see how many of our 100 people said antimony.
0:04:25 > 0:04:26It's right.
0:04:30 > 0:04:31Still going down.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34Look at that! 1, Suzie.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36What a great start to the show.
0:04:36 > 0:04:37Fantastic. Great answer, Suzie.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Wonderful. Antimony.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Terrific start, Suzie. Very well played.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Very tough on that first podium as well.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Used by the ancient Egyptians as eye make-up, antimony.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49But highly toxic, so don't do it.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53It's even got its own hieroglyph, it was so valued in Egyptian times.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Wow. Thanks very much. Now, Jack.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Hello.- A warm welcome to you, Jack.- Thank you.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00You're a student at Manchester, what are you studying?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Politics and philosophy.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04OK, what year are you in?
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Third year.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09- You enjoying it?- Er, yeah, it's OK.
0:05:10 > 0:05:11Wow, he's quite cool, Jack, isn't he?
0:05:11 > 0:05:16- He is cool.- No, come on, I'm not just... It's great, I'm sure.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21Do you know what Jack needs? What would complete Jack?
0:05:21 > 0:05:22A pipe.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25I was going to say a spell of National Service.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28But a pipe is much the same.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- How's your chemistry, Jack? - Er, not too bad, I don't think.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38- I did it at A level.- OK.
0:05:38 > 0:05:43I'm going to say einsteinium.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Einsteinium, says Jack.
0:05:44 > 0:05:45Let's see if that's right
0:05:45 > 0:05:49and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said einsteinium.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58It's another good answer. Down it goes.
0:05:58 > 0:06:002.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Great start to the show. Well done, Jack.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Well played, Jack. Another terrific answer.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Weirdly, back in the old days of Pointless,
0:06:09 > 0:06:10that would've been a pointless answer.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12I think a few more people know einsteinium now.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15First discovered in the aftermath of nuclear tests in the '50s.
0:06:16 > 0:06:20I've got, on the back of Pointless entirely,
0:06:20 > 0:06:22I have a really good answer.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24- Oh, do you?- Yeah. - I shall look forward to that.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27If I were out there right now, I would be so excited.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Would you be able to give it as casually as Jack gave his answer?
0:06:30 > 0:06:32No, never. Never in a million years.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- He is cool, isn't he? - Yeah, he really is.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40- He doesn't need anyone raising money for him.- No.- He's fine.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43Toby. Toby.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Remind us what happened last time, Toby. It was Round One.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51Yeah, it was Italian animal names
0:06:51 > 0:06:55and I'm not too fluent in Italian, so...
0:06:55 > 0:06:59Yeah. It was quite a tough one but what did you go for?
0:06:59 > 0:07:02- Did you go for rhinoceros? Was that you?- Yeah. It was rhinoceros.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04I don't know the Italian version.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07It's a rhinocerante. Pretty tough.
0:07:07 > 0:07:08Pretty tough stuff.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10- Weirdly, it scored a lot of points.- Yeah.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13It did. However, chemistry. How are we feeling about that?
0:07:13 > 0:07:14Are you good at chemistry?
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Much like I'm not Italian, I'm not a scientist.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22Or fond of chemical elements.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26I'm going to have to go with nitrogen.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29OK, nitrogen, says Toby. Let's see if that's right.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Let's see how many people said nitrogen.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35It is right.
0:07:38 > 0:07:4034.
0:07:44 > 0:07:48Yes, a colourless gas that makes up 78% of the air around us.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50So almost everything we're looking at now.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54- Thank you very much indeed. OK. Now then, Lyn, welcome.- Hello.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Great to have you here, from Royal Leamington Spa.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- Do you say Royal Leamington Spa as a matter of course?- No. I don't.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Geoff tends to, but, no, I just say Leamington Spa.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05- OK, do you ever shorten it just to Leamington?- Yes. Yeah.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07RLS?
0:08:07 > 0:08:10- No.- No, OK. That was one step too far.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13There's a whole story of a marriage there, isn't there?
0:08:13 > 0:08:14"I don't, no. Geoff tends to."
0:08:16 > 0:08:18What do you get up to in Leamington Spa, Lyn?
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I don't work at the moment.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23We recently, six months ago, sold our business
0:08:23 > 0:08:26and I'm having a well-earned rest at the moment.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30- Lovely.- Early retirement.- Very good indeed. What was your business?
0:08:30 > 0:08:31Electrical business.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Excellent. So you're quite glad to be shot of that?
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Quite nice not to have that responsibility.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40- OK, chemistry, does that come into the business at all?- No, not really.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42OK.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45But I think I've got an answer anyway.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Plutonium.
0:08:47 > 0:08:48Plutonium.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:08:50 > 0:08:52let's see how many of our 100 people said plutonium.
0:08:55 > 0:08:56Is it right.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Very well done. Another single figure score there, Lyn.
0:09:03 > 0:09:04Very well done.
0:09:08 > 0:09:12Well played, Lyn. It explodes when it's exposed to moist air.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15They used it in lots of the early nuclear weapons.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- I didn't know that.- Plutonium? Oh, yeah.- Moist air?
0:09:18 > 0:09:19Yeah, be very careful. Yeah.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Cos you've got that plutonium at home, haven't you?
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Well, I've got a whole floor of it.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26- Don't take it outside.- I shan't.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Thanks very much. We're halfway through the round.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Let's take a look at those scores as they stand.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- 1, the best score of that pass. Very well done, Suzie.- Thank you.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Then up to 2 where we find Jack and Leo,
0:09:35 > 0:09:39up to 9 where we find Lyn and Geoff and then up to 34, Toby and Sam.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40Sam, how's your chemistry?
0:09:40 > 0:09:44well, we'll find out. Not particularly good, I think.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47OK, well very, very best of luck with the next pass.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49We're going to come back down the line now.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Can the second players please step up to the podium.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56OK, remember we're looking for any chemical element
0:09:56 > 0:09:58that has the letters I and N in its name.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01- I and N. Geoff.- Hiya.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Welcome. What do you get up to?
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Obviously, you've sold your electrical business.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Yes, Lyn had me doing the decorating
0:10:07 > 0:10:09after we'd finished with the business,
0:10:09 > 0:10:13so come Christmas time I thought I've got to be doing something
0:10:13 > 0:10:16to get out of the house so a friend of mine offered me
0:10:16 > 0:10:20a job as a dotcom picker at a major supermarket which I can't mention.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24I take what they call a dolly out with six trays
0:10:24 > 0:10:27- and I fill it with all your shopping.- Oh, that's fun, isn't it?
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- Like Supermarket Sweep? - Absolutely, yeah.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32But there's no Dale Winton.
0:10:32 > 0:10:33It gets better and better.
0:10:35 > 0:10:36Hey, I won that one.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40So, "We Shop, Geoff Drops." That's roughly how it works. OK.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Now then, Geoff. You're on 9. - I know.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45This isn't a terrible score by any means,
0:10:45 > 0:10:48particularly when seen alongside Sam and Toby's high of 34.
0:10:48 > 0:10:53They did well, not a bad shot with nitrogen, but plutonium, ooh.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Did you know it exploded in contact with damp air?
0:10:56 > 0:10:58- I didn't, no.- No, me neither.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01What are you going to go for?
0:11:01 > 0:11:04If you can score 24 or less, you are definitely in the next round.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06I'll give it a go. I'm not that sure.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10I'm not well up on my chemicals but I believe there's californium.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12- Californium.- I believe so.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15Californium, let's see. Fingers crossed from Geoff and from me.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Let's see how many people said californium. There's your red line.
0:11:20 > 0:11:21It's right.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28You are through to the next round and it scores 1, look at that!
0:11:30 > 0:11:33Joint lowest score of the round. Just into double figures there.
0:11:33 > 0:11:3410, very well done, Geoff and Lyn.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Another terrific answer. Well done, Geoff.
0:11:37 > 0:11:41Named after the university in the state of California.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Thanks, Richard. Now, Sam.
0:11:43 > 0:11:48- Yes.- Sam, welcome back. Toby went with rhinoceros.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50- What was your one on that?- Camel.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52- Ah, cammello?- Cammello.- Cammello.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55- I know that one now.- You were right.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- It's good after the event.- It was correct, it just scored a lot.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02- Just was the highest one, unfortunately.- 67 it scored.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Anyway, listen, Sam. Remind us, what do you do?
0:12:04 > 0:12:08We're both theatre students at Middlesex University.
0:12:08 > 0:12:12OK, and have you made your plans for when you leave Middlesex?
0:12:12 > 0:12:14Erm, kind of, as much as you can.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17I'm going to try my hand at acting, which, realistically,
0:12:17 > 0:12:21my plans will be working in a bar and pretending I'm an actor.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24That's how we all did it. It works. It works.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Well, very, very good luck with that.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30And your hobbies aside from theatre are..?
0:12:30 > 0:12:32- I'm a black belt in karate.- Are you?
0:12:32 > 0:12:34When did you get your black belt?
0:12:34 > 0:12:36I got my black belt when I was 16
0:12:36 > 0:12:38but I pretty much stopped as soon as I got it.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40That's pretty much what I would do.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42I made it and then was like, "Nah, I'm done."
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Are you still a bit handy, do you think?
0:12:44 > 0:12:46- I think I could handle myself if I needed to.- OK.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48That sounds quite aggressive.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50No, no. It's OK. That's all right.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Now, Sam, there you are. You're the high-scorers on 34.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Listen, anything could happen. I don't know what Leo
0:12:55 > 0:12:58and I don't know what Emily know about chemical elements.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01But what I do know is that you need a low score.
0:13:01 > 0:13:02We do.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03Unfortunately, in our studies
0:13:03 > 0:13:06we don't really get taught about chemical elements.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08- Do you watch Pointless ever?- I do.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10The daytime game show Pointless.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Every so often.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Because I find watching that, and I do, very closely, I think
0:13:15 > 0:13:18I've probably seen every episode.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20I would say it's not daytime, I'd say it's early evening.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Yes, it probably is, isn't it? Early evening.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25But I think I've seen every single episode.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28I learnt pretty much everything from that.
0:13:28 > 0:13:32I'm going to take a massive risk, I think, because I think
0:13:32 > 0:13:35what I'm about to say might be made up for a comic book.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39But I'm going to for kryptonite.
0:13:45 > 0:13:46Kryptonite, says Sam.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48No red line for you as you are the high-scorers,
0:13:48 > 0:13:50but let's see if kryptonite's right.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Let's see how many of our 100 people said kryptonite.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59- No, sorry, Sam. I'm sorry.- Aw.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02That scores you 100 points which takes your total up to 134.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04It's an achievement, I guess.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Listen, good thing to go out on.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09There's krypton but not kryptonite, I'm afraid.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11That is from a comic book.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Thanks very much indeed. Now, Leo.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17I like the coordination of your shirts.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21We thought we'd better go in uniform.
0:14:21 > 0:14:26It's a good uniform and I like that it's... What is it, linen, there?
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- Yes.- Yes. We'll say yes.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31- Leo, what do you study? - I study ancient history.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34- And you're in your third year. - Yeah, in my third year as well.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Have you got plans for after that?
0:14:36 > 0:14:38I'm applying to go to drama schools right now
0:14:38 > 0:14:42- so if I get into that then that'll be my plan.- Very best of luck with that.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45- How many are you applying to? - I'm applying to four of them.- OK.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Are we allowed to know which is your preferred choice?
0:14:48 > 0:14:53Yeah, erm, RADA, LAMBDA, Bristol would probably be my top three.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Excellent. Nothing wrong with any of those. Well, very best of luck.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59OK, well, listen, there you are, you're on 2. I've got great news.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01You are through to the next round.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04Even if you score 100 points you won't overtake the impressive
0:15:04 > 0:15:07score of Toby and Sam on 134 there.
0:15:07 > 0:15:08So bearing that in mind,
0:15:08 > 0:15:11maybe see if we can get our first pointless answer of the round.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14I'd love to take a risk on it but I'm just terrible at chemistry
0:15:14 > 0:15:18and the only good one I knew was einsteinium which
0:15:18 > 0:15:20I've overheard him talk about before.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23So I'm going to just have to say the best one
0:15:23 > 0:15:25I can think of which is magnesium.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Magnesium, says Leo. Magnesium.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29No red line, you're already through.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31Let's see if magnesium's right.
0:15:33 > 0:15:34Of course it is.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Surprisingly low, look at that. 13 for magnesium.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Takes your total up to 15.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50Another good answer there. Safely through to Round Two, well played.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Thanks, Rich. Now, Emily.
0:15:52 > 0:15:53- Hello.- Emily, welcome.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56So, Columpton from the States.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59- Yes.- Talk us through that.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02You mean that's not a usual move?
0:16:02 > 0:16:04It's not one I know particularly well,
0:16:04 > 0:16:07but, for heaven's sake, there are no usual moves.
0:16:07 > 0:16:08True.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Well, Columpton
0:16:10 > 0:16:13by way of London and Washington DC,
0:16:13 > 0:16:15originating in Connecticut.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- That's much more usual.- That is, yes.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Certainly your arrival port, London, it makes a lot more sense.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25- Yes.- Certainly, I know flights from JFK to Columpton are a nightmare.
0:16:25 > 0:16:30- Few and far between.- Yeah. So how long have you lived in the UK?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32About six and a half years.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34I see. OK.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Do you feel you've assimilated enough for
0:16:36 > 0:16:40when we throw strange sitcom questions from the '70s at you?
0:16:40 > 0:16:43- Strange sitcom questions will be my weakness.- OK.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46- Other than chemical elements.- You've made it through the first round.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49- And you just have to make it through the second.- Yep.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51What are you going to go for?
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Well, comic books made me think of Wolverine,
0:16:53 > 0:16:56which isn't a real element
0:16:56 > 0:16:57I think, but I can't think
0:16:57 > 0:17:00of the name so I'm going to have to play it quite safe and go uranium.
0:17:00 > 0:17:05- Uranium.- Yes.- I thought you were going to say wolverinium.
0:17:05 > 0:17:06Uranium, let's see if that's right
0:17:06 > 0:17:09and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said uranium.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11No red line, you're already through.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14It is right.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20It's not bad. It's really not bad, look at that. 9.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Takes your total up to 10.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27Joint lowest score of the whole round, thank you very much.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Well played, Emily. Great round from everyone.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32- We've got four lovely pairs of contestants on, haven't we?- Yeah.
0:17:32 > 0:17:33What a lot of fun this is going to be.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36Uranium, named after Uranus. What was your answer?
0:17:36 > 0:17:39- Ununpentium.- Ununpentium.- Yeah.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42I think we've had this discussion before about ununpentium, haven't we?
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Oh, God. Why?
0:17:44 > 0:17:48It's temporary so it may become part of the periodic table
0:17:48 > 0:17:51but, as you heard me say, January 2014.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- It's not a permanent fixture on the periodic table.- Aww.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57You know what? Don't, cos he will never learn otherwise.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Erm, copernicium, what about that?
0:18:01 > 0:18:03- Copernicium is a much better answer.- Good.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05In fact, it's a pointless answer.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08- Very well played. - School of Pointless.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11The laboratory of Pointless taught me that.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14You'd have been annoyed if you did it for real because
0:18:14 > 0:18:17- you probably would've gone for ununpentium, wouldn't you?- Yeah.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Let's take a look at some of the other pointless answers.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22Well done if you got any of these. You could've had...
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Meitnerium, that's been a pointless answer a couple of times.
0:18:36 > 0:18:37Very well done if you said any of those.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Let's take a look at the top three answers,
0:18:39 > 0:18:41the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43The third highest scorer of all, nitrogen.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50And right at the top, perhaps unsurprisingly, iron with 42.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Thanks very much indeed, Richard. So, at the end of our first round,
0:18:53 > 0:18:55the pair heading home with a high score of 134,
0:18:55 > 0:18:56I'm sorry, Sam and Toby.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59It was Round One last time, it was Round One this time.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01You were destined never to see what Round Two looked like.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03At least we're consistent.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06You know everyone gets strawberries in Round Two, don't you?
0:19:06 > 0:19:10- Sam.- Yeah. Strawberries.- You've ruined it for everyone.- I'm sorry.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Oh, well. But great to have you on the show.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Best of luck with your university careers
0:19:14 > 0:19:16and thanks very much for playing.
0:19:16 > 0:19:17Sam and Toby.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20APPLAUSE
0:19:20 > 0:19:23But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.
0:19:28 > 0:19:29Well, three pairs remain.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Obviously at the end of this round we have to get rid of another
0:19:32 > 0:19:34pair but this game just gets better and better.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36This is going to be so exciting. I'll tell you why.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38Because Suzie and Emily and Geoff and Lyn,
0:19:38 > 0:19:41our low-scoring pairs, were tied on 10.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44And then Jack and Leo not very far behind them
0:19:44 > 0:19:45and they gave us einsteinium.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47So it's all going to be fantastic.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Three pairs fighting it out to see who stays for the head-to-head.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Our category for Round Two is Novels.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Novels.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:19:59 > 0:20:00who's going to go second?
0:20:00 > 0:20:02And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08OK, and the question concerns Literary Characters.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11Literary characters, Richard.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14On each board we're going to show you the names of six literary characters,
0:20:14 > 0:20:17all of whom were the first people to be mentioned in certain novels.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20We just need to you to tell us the name of the novel, please.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22It's going to be six on each pass, 12 novels to guess at home
0:20:22 > 0:20:25and we're going to give you the years that those novels came out as well.
0:20:25 > 0:20:26OK, thanks very much.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29So we're looking for the titles of the works in which these
0:20:29 > 0:20:31characters first appeared and here is our first board of six.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47I'll read those all one last time.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01- Now, Emily.- Yes.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03How do you like that board?
0:21:03 > 0:21:06- I definitely know four of them.- Perfect.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09I'm going to take a punt on the fifth.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Winston Smith, 1984.
0:21:11 > 0:21:141984 says Emily for Winston Smith. Let's see if that's right.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Let's see how many people said it.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Absolutely right.
0:21:23 > 0:21:2427.
0:21:27 > 0:21:2927 for 1984.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32Well played, Emily. By George Orwell, of course.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34He came up with Big Brother and Room 101, so he's loaded.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36HE CHUCKLES
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Very good, thank you. Now, Leo.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42Leo. How are you feeling about this?
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Er, I'm feeling all right about it
0:21:44 > 0:21:47cos I think I've got one good answer at least.
0:21:47 > 0:21:52I'm pretty sure John Yossarian's from Catch 22.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Catch 22, says Leo. Let's see if that's right.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Let's see how many people said Catch 22.
0:21:59 > 0:22:00It's right.
0:22:01 > 0:22:06Well, 27 with 1984, you've passed that with Catch 22, down to 19.
0:22:09 > 0:22:1319 for Catch 22. 27 for 1984. A lot of numbers.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15I know, it's quite confusing. Very well played, Leo.
0:22:15 > 0:22:19- Another terrific answer again. Good scoring from everybody.- Yeah. Good.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21OK. Now then, Lyn.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23You are the last person to have this board.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26- Do you fancy talking us through it?- No.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32I only know two on there, so Mr Bennet, I think,
0:22:32 > 0:22:34is Pride And Prejudice.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37And Mr Heathcliff is Wuthering Heights,
0:22:37 > 0:22:39so it's who to go for out of those.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42I'll say Mr Bennet, Pride And Prejudice.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Pride And Prejudice, says Lyn. Let's see if that's right.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Let's see how many people said Pride And Prejudice.
0:22:48 > 0:22:49It's right.
0:22:49 > 0:22:5227 is our high score, 19 our low.
0:22:52 > 0:22:5446 for Mr Bennet.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01Well played, Lyn. You knew two of them, you chose the right one,
0:23:01 > 0:23:04cos Wuthering Heights would've scored you more points.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07It's quite right that it would've scored you 66.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09Now, the other two are the best two answers on the board
0:23:09 > 0:23:11and two of the most famous books up there.
0:23:11 > 0:23:16- Vernon Dursley...- Is Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Correct, it would've scored you six points, and Prim Everdeen?
0:23:20 > 0:23:22- It's The Hunger Games.- Oh, yeah.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26And that would've scored 6 as well, so they're the best answers up there.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29Thanks very much indeed. OK, well, we're halfway through the round.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32Let's take a look at those scores. 19, the best score of that pass.
0:23:32 > 0:23:33Well done, Leo.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35That puts you and Jack at the top of the board,
0:23:35 > 0:23:38then up to 27 where we find Emily and Suzie.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Then to 46, Lyn and Geoff.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43Now, Geoff, you get first choice on the next board.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44Do you read a lot?
0:23:44 > 0:23:47- The Dandy, The Beano. - This is probably his worst subject.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48Worst subject ever.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50OK, well, use your advantage well and try
0:23:50 > 0:23:53- and find a nice low scorer if you can.- OK.- Best of luck with that.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55We're going to come back down the line.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57Can the second players please step up to the podium.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03OK, let's put six more characters up on the board and here they come.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17I'll read those all one last time.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32OK, Geoff, you are the high-scorers.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35Erm, I don't know any of them, to be honest.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38I think it's going to have to be a punt.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42Jacob Marley and Nicholas Nickleby is the only thing I can think of.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46Not a terrible punt. Nicholas Nickleby, says Geoff.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48Let's see if that's right.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50No red line for you as you are the high-scorers
0:24:50 > 0:24:53but let's see how many of our 100 people said Nicholas Nickleby.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59I'm afraid it's wrong.
0:25:00 > 0:25:05- That scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 146.- Sorry, Geoff.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07- I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass.- OK.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10OK, now, Jack. Hey, Jack, I've got good news.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13- Great news, I know.- You know the head-to-head?
0:25:13 > 0:25:15You are going to be in the head-to-head.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Fantastic, that's great.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21Even if you score 100 points which I happen to think you won't.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25No, I think I know one for definite.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28And another one I could take a stab at, maybe,
0:25:28 > 0:25:32is Jem Finch in To Kill A Mockingbird.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36- To Kill A Mockingbird, says Jack. - I've got it, sort of slightly there.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38OK, well, no red line for you as you're already through,
0:25:38 > 0:25:41but let's see how many people said To Kill A Mockingbird.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46It's absolutely right. Very well done, Jack.
0:25:50 > 0:25:5113.
0:25:53 > 0:25:5732 is your total. I suspect that'll be the lowest total of the round.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00Well done, Jack. The son of Atticus Finch, the lawyer, of course.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Have you ever thought of doing a radio show?
0:26:02 > 0:26:05- Wouldn't he be brilliant?- I would listen to that, wouldn't you?
0:26:05 > 0:26:06I would.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09- It would be very calming.- Yeah. What kind of music do you like, Jack?
0:26:09 > 0:26:11- Er, most things, really. Anything.- That's good.
0:26:11 > 0:26:15- It'd be an eclectic show. - An eclectic show.- Eclectic people.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17I genuinely would listen.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21An eclectic show for eclectic people.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23It'd be brilliant if you were famous
0:26:23 > 0:26:25because you'd be very easy to impersonate.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27It'd be lovely. You can imagine Alastair McGowan
0:26:27 > 0:26:29going, "Oh, yeah. Lovely."
0:26:29 > 0:26:33Now then, Suzie. Suzie.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36- Well, listen. Good news. You're through.- This is good.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38You are most certainly through.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41What I'm now going to ask you to do, though, is see
0:26:41 > 0:26:43if you can talk us through that board.
0:26:43 > 0:26:48I think I know the top two. I think the first one is Little Women.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50I think the second one is Gone With The Wind.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53So I will go Jo March, Little Women.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56OK, Little Women, says Suzie.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58No red line for you as you're already through,
0:26:58 > 0:27:00but let's see how many of our 100 people said Little Women.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08It's right. Still going down, look at that.
0:27:08 > 0:27:0927, well done.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13You equal Emily's score. It takes your total up to 54.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Well played, Suzie. Good battle going on
0:27:16 > 0:27:17between these first two podiums here.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Let's take a look through the rest of these.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Scarlett O'Hara, you're right, it's Gone With The Wind.
0:27:22 > 0:27:23But you went for the right one,
0:27:23 > 0:27:26cos that would've scored you 70 points, would've been a big scorer.
0:27:26 > 0:27:31Arthur Dent, Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, would've scored you 25.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34Now, Jacob Marley, not Nicholas Nickleby, but he is Dickens...
0:27:34 > 0:27:36- A Christmas Carol.- A Christmas Carol, Lyn, yes, absolutely.
0:27:36 > 0:27:41Would've scored 43, and Charlie Swan, again, from a very, very big novel
0:27:41 > 0:27:45of the last ten years, the first person to appear in Twilight.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Bella Swan's father, 3 points. Well done if you said that.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50Thanks very much indeed.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53So, at the end of our second round, the pair who are going to be heading
0:27:53 > 0:27:56home with their high score of 146, I'm afraid it's Geoff and Lyn.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00Well, you didn't do badly. Mr Bennet wasn't a bad answer at all.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Geoff, you weren't that far off.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Might you have gone for A Christmas Carol?
0:28:05 > 0:28:08I wouldn't even know... Even the whole 12, I didn't know any of them.
0:28:08 > 0:28:09Not one.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12Marley's Ghost, of course. That would've reminded you.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14Well, I'm Lyn's ghost now.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16OK.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Well, I hope not yet, cos we want to see you back next show.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20We look forward to that very much indeed,
0:28:20 > 0:28:23but, in the meantime, thanks very much, Geoff and Lyn.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26APPLAUSE
0:28:26 > 0:28:28But for Jack and Leo, and Suzie and Emily,
0:28:28 > 0:28:30it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37Congratulations, Jack and Leo, Suzie and Emily,
0:28:37 > 0:28:38you are now one step closer to the final,
0:28:38 > 0:28:42and a chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands at £3,000.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48So now we have to decide who's going to play for that money,
0:28:48 > 0:28:50and to do that, you're going to go head-to-head.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53The difference being you can now confer before you give your answers.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56First pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59Well, very well done. I'm really looking forward to this head-to-head
0:28:59 > 0:29:01because I know it is going to be very close fought.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04Each of you have had brilliant low scores.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06You've had some slightly higher scores but you've been
0:29:06 > 0:29:09pretty much neck and neck the whole way through the show.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12I think this should be very exciting indeed. Best of luck to both pairs.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14Let's play the head-to-head.
0:29:19 > 0:29:22OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:29:23 > 0:29:24..Courtroom Movies.
0:29:26 > 0:29:27Courtroom Movies, Richard.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30We're going to show you five images now from films which feature
0:29:30 > 0:29:32courtroom scenes. Can you name the films, please?
0:29:32 > 0:29:37OK, let's reveal our five pictures and here they are. We have...
0:29:58 > 0:30:01OK, there we are. Five courtroom movies.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03Jack and Leo, you will go first
0:30:03 > 0:30:06cos you've played best throughout the show so far.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09We think we know four of them,
0:30:09 > 0:30:11but two of them we're a bit more risky on.
0:30:11 > 0:30:14And we're going to go for the one we're most risky on
0:30:14 > 0:30:16cos we're feeling wild.
0:30:16 > 0:30:20So we're going to say B, To Kill A Mockingbird.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22B, To Kill A Mockingbird.
0:30:22 > 0:30:24B, To Kill A Mockingbird.
0:30:24 > 0:30:26OK, Suzie and Emily.
0:30:27 > 0:30:31- We also think we know four of them.- Yes.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34A is A Few Good Men.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36B I thought was maybe 12 Angry Men.
0:30:36 > 0:30:40C is Philadelphia and D is My Cousin Vinnie.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44I think we'll go D?
0:30:44 > 0:30:46I would've gone A, but, yeah.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Let's go D, My Cousin Vinnie.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51OK, you're going to say D, My Cousin Vinnie.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54So we have B, To Kill A Mockingbird, according to Jack and Leo.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56Let's see if that's right.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58It'd be the second time you've given that answer today.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00Let's see if that's right, To Kill A Mockingbird,
0:31:00 > 0:31:02and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08No, I'm afraid not To Kill A Mockingbird,
0:31:08 > 0:31:12which means, Suzie and Emily, you merely have to be correct with D,
0:31:12 > 0:31:14My Cousin Vinnie, and you will win the point.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16Let's find out if you are.
0:31:18 > 0:31:19You're right. Well done.
0:31:24 > 0:31:2616.
0:31:26 > 0:31:29APPLAUSE
0:31:29 > 0:31:3216 for My Cousin Vinnie, which means, Suzie and Emily,
0:31:32 > 0:31:34after one question you're up 1-0.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Well played, Suzie and Emily.
0:31:36 > 0:31:37Jack and Leo, you should've been here
0:31:37 > 0:31:40for our To Kill A Mockingbird special. You would've cleaned up.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44Now, you were thinking about going for My Cousin Vinnie
0:31:44 > 0:31:45or A Few Good Men.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47Let's see which was the best one to go for.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49It was actually My Cousin Vinnie because A Few Good Men
0:31:49 > 0:31:53would've scored you a few more points. It would've scored you 28.
0:31:53 > 0:31:55B, now, it's not To Kill A Mockingbird,
0:31:55 > 0:31:57it's not 12 Angry Men either.
0:31:57 > 0:31:59It's a pointless answer and it's Inherit The Wind.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04Very well done if you said that at home. Terrific answer.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06C is Philadelphia, as you knew.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08Would've scored you 29.
0:32:08 > 0:32:13And the last one, Edward Norton and Richard Gere in Primal Fear.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16Would've scored you six points so terrific answer if you said that.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18Thanks very much indeed.
0:32:18 > 0:32:20OK, so here comes your second question, Jack and Leo.
0:32:20 > 0:32:22You have to win this one to stay in the game so best of luck.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24It concerns...
0:32:28 > 0:32:30If only we had an American here.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32LAUGHTER
0:32:32 > 0:32:34North and South American Capital Cities.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37We're going to show you five North and South American Capital Cities
0:32:37 > 0:32:38now, but in anagram form.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41Can you unscramble them and give us the best answer?
0:32:41 > 0:32:45OK, let's reveal our anagrams and here they are. We've got...
0:32:59 > 0:33:02Suzie and Emily, help yourselves.
0:33:02 > 0:33:06THEY WHISPER
0:33:12 > 0:33:17Right, we are going to go for Ease Rub Ions
0:33:17 > 0:33:19and we think it's Buenos Aires.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21Buenos Aires you're going to say, for Ease Rub Ions.
0:33:21 > 0:33:25Buenos Aires, OK, now then, Jack and Leo.
0:33:25 > 0:33:28Do you want to talk us through the board?
0:33:28 > 0:33:33I know the top one and the bottom one, which is Lima and Ottawa
0:33:33 > 0:33:35and I should know the other two
0:33:35 > 0:33:38cos I said I was really strong at capital cities.
0:33:40 > 0:33:41I would probably say Ottawa.
0:33:43 > 0:33:44Yeah, Ottawa.
0:33:44 > 0:33:48OK, Jack and Leo say Ottawa for A At Two,
0:33:48 > 0:33:50so we have Buenos Aires versus Ottawa.
0:33:50 > 0:33:53Suzie and Emily said Buenos Aires, let's see if that's right,
0:33:53 > 0:33:55let's see how many people said it.
0:33:57 > 0:33:58It's right.
0:34:03 > 0:34:0417.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12Jack and Leo look like they've just seen one
0:34:12 > 0:34:15but they've gone for Ottawa. Let's see if it's right.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17Let's see how many of our 100 people said Ottawa.
0:34:20 > 0:34:21It's right.
0:34:23 > 0:34:2549 for Ottawa.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29Which means very well done, Suzie and Emily.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31After only two questions you're through to the final.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33Straight through, 2-0.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36Very well played. Jack, which is the one you just saw?
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Georgetown.
0:34:38 > 0:34:41Oh, Georgetown's the best answer on the board as well. The third one.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43Would've scored you 2 points.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Why you doing this to me?
0:34:45 > 0:34:48A terrific answer. Capital of Guyana.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50Lima, you're right about, capital of Peru.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53Would've scored you too many points. Would've scored 65.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55I was looking at this next one for ages.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58I thought it looks like Washington, but Washington hasn't got a C in it.
0:34:58 > 0:34:59- DC.- Washington DC.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03Exactly. 24 points.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06So, Georgetown, best answer but Buenos Aires,
0:35:06 > 0:35:07second best answer on the board.
0:35:07 > 0:35:09Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round
0:35:11 > 0:35:13is Jack and Leo. Well, I'm really sorry
0:35:13 > 0:35:16cos you deserve to go through to the final because you played
0:35:16 > 0:35:19incredibly well throughout the show but I'm not sorry because it means
0:35:19 > 0:35:21we get to see you again next time.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23Because otherwise it would only have been one appearance
0:35:23 > 0:35:25and that would've been too few.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27But thanks, we'll look forward to next time, Jack and Leo.
0:35:29 > 0:35:33But for Suzie and Emily, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39Congratulations, Suzie and Emily. You fought off all the competition
0:35:39 > 0:35:41and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:49 > 0:35:53and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £3,000.
0:35:57 > 0:35:58Well, what a journey.
0:35:58 > 0:36:00There you were, podium one,
0:36:00 > 0:36:02the first answer of the whole show, antimony.
0:36:02 > 0:36:06And you continued in that rich vein all the way through
0:36:06 > 0:36:09and then a 2-0 victory in the head-to-head
0:36:09 > 0:36:12which isn't that common, so you've done very well indeed.
0:36:12 > 0:36:14Anything you'd particularly like to see come up in this last round?
0:36:14 > 0:36:18- American TV shows.- Yeah, that.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20- We're all over that. - American sports teams.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23OK, they do sometimes come up. Well, very best of luck.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26As always, you get to choose your category from the four options
0:36:26 > 0:36:28we give you, and here they are. We've got...
0:36:39 > 0:36:44Do you know, my family is Cornish and I work for a Cornish law firm.
0:36:44 > 0:36:48But I think we have to rule it out. Sorry, family.
0:36:48 > 0:36:50Would you go '80s Female Singers?
0:36:50 > 0:36:51It'll be mostly on you,
0:36:51 > 0:36:54but I think that's probably the closest we can come.
0:36:54 > 0:36:58- Royalty On Screen, I mean... - Let's go '80s Female Singers.
0:36:58 > 0:37:01'80s Female Singers, I think, reluctantly.
0:37:01 > 0:37:02OK, '80s Female Singers.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04I don't want to give advice in hindsight
0:37:04 > 0:37:07but I think Cornwall would've been a pretty good category for you, but
0:37:07 > 0:37:09here we go, let's go with the female singers.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Might be a good category as well actually.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13Three very different singers here. We're looking for...
0:37:16 > 0:37:18So any original tracks on the original release of that.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28So any of the original tracks on the releases
0:37:28 > 0:37:30of Whitney Houston, Madonna, or Kylie.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32Very, very best of luck.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34OK, thanks very much indeed.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37Now, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:37:37 > 0:37:39and all you need to win that jackpot is for just
0:37:39 > 0:37:42one of those answers to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:37:43 > 0:37:44BOTH: Yep.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock. There they are.
0:37:47 > 0:37:48Your time starts now.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50I'm only going to know the big ones.
0:37:50 > 0:37:53I Want to Dance With Somebody, True Blue, Loco-motion.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55I'm just trying to go through the alphabet.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59Which isn't very helpful. Erm.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02Trying to think.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05- Like A Virgin. - No. They're all too big.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09I'm just trying to think about Whitney Houston.
0:38:09 > 0:38:10No, that wouldn't be on there.
0:38:12 > 0:38:16- Only Houston with big hair.- Yeah. - Pink lips, blue eyes.
0:38:22 > 0:38:25Erm, Madonna, I've got absolutely no idea.
0:38:25 > 0:38:28Kylie, Loco-motion is the only thing I can think of
0:38:28 > 0:38:31and that's obviously going to score very highly.
0:38:31 > 0:38:32- Erm...- Lucky Star.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35Cherish...
0:38:35 > 0:38:37But that's later, I think.
0:38:37 > 0:38:38Ten seconds left.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41Lucky Star, I Wanna Dance With Somebody and Loco-motion.
0:38:41 > 0:38:44Yeah, I think we don't have any choice. We should've gone Cornwall.
0:38:44 > 0:38:45Damn.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50OK, that's your time up. Now give me your three answers.
0:38:50 > 0:38:54Right. Whitney Houston, I Wanna Dance With Somebody.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57That's going to be huge.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59Madonna.
0:38:59 > 0:39:01- True Blue.- Yeah, go on.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04And Kylie, Loco-motion.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07Now, of those three, which is your best shot for the pointless?
0:39:07 > 0:39:09None of them.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12- True Blue.- True Blue we'll put last. Least likely to be pointless?
0:39:12 > 0:39:14- I Wanna Dance With Somebody. - OK, we'll put that first.
0:39:14 > 0:39:18OK, let's pop those up on the board in that order and here they are.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24Well, very best of luck.
0:39:24 > 0:39:26It was a really tough board, that one.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28Tough category but you managed to come up with three answers.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Let's find out if...
0:39:30 > 0:39:31I mean, some of them might be right,
0:39:31 > 0:39:34some of them might even be pointless, you never know.
0:39:34 > 0:39:38- I think we know.- Well, let's say they were, or one of them was,
0:39:38 > 0:39:41what would you do with your prize money, £3,000?
0:39:41 > 0:39:45I'm getting married later this year so I would put it towards that.
0:39:45 > 0:39:49- Possibly making it a Pointless-themed wedding.- Wow.
0:39:49 > 0:39:50Could invite you two.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53So if you want to change the scores, make them pointless...
0:39:56 > 0:39:59OK, Suzie, do you want to submit anything?
0:39:59 > 0:40:01I'm going on a number of holidays this year
0:40:01 > 0:40:03so it'd probably all go to holidays.
0:40:03 > 0:40:04Well, very best of luck.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07I Wanna Dance With Somebody was your first answer, the one you thought
0:40:07 > 0:40:09was probably least likely to be pointless.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11In this case we were looking for
0:40:11 > 0:40:12tracks from Whitney Houston's first album.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15Let's find out if it's right and if it is let's find out
0:40:15 > 0:40:18how many people said it. For £3,000, is it pointless?
0:40:21 > 0:40:24An incorrect answer, I'm afraid.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26OK, only two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:26 > 0:40:29Your second answer was Loco-motion.
0:40:29 > 0:40:32In this case we were looking for tracks from Kylie's first album,
0:40:32 > 0:40:33Kylie.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36Let's find out if it's right. Let's find out if it's pointless.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39If it is, it'll win you £3,000. How many people said Loco-motion?
0:40:41 > 0:40:42It's right.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47OK, your first answer was incorrect, your second answer,
0:40:47 > 0:40:49Loco-motion is right.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51Taking us down through the 20s,
0:40:51 > 0:40:5228, so I'm sorry.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56Not a pointless answer.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58I've got no idea. Is it a film?
0:40:58 > 0:41:01So everything is now riding on your third and final answer, True Blue.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03In this case we were looking for
0:41:03 > 0:41:05tracks from Madonna's debut album, Madonna.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08Let's find out if it's right and if it is, let's find out
0:41:08 > 0:41:11how many people said it. For £3,000, is it pointless?
0:41:13 > 0:41:15Oh, no. I'm sorry.
0:41:19 > 0:41:23I'm sorry, unfortunately you didn't manage to find that all-important
0:41:23 > 0:41:26pointless answer so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £3,000.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28That will roll over onto the next show,
0:41:28 > 0:41:31but we've really enjoyed having you on the show and you've done so well
0:41:31 > 0:41:33and you get a Pointless trophy each to take home, so there you are.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40Well played, Suzie and Emily.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42You haven't put a foot wrong all throughout the show
0:41:42 > 0:41:44until this final round. You played really well.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47True Blue was from Madonna's third album, which was called True Blue.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50I Wanna Dance With Somebody was from Whitney Houston's second album.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52Her first album was called Whitney Houston,
0:41:52 > 0:41:53her second album was called Whitney.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55Her third album was called Wh.
0:41:57 > 0:41:59You did actually say a better answer, not a pointless answer,
0:41:59 > 0:42:02while you were talking which was Lucky Star from the Madonna album.
0:42:02 > 0:42:05Would've scored you 5 points, would've been a good answer.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07But let's take a look at some pointless answers.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10Whitney, that album, the biggest songs were Greatest Love Of All,
0:42:10 > 0:42:12How Will I Know and Saving All My Love For You.
0:42:12 > 0:42:13Those were the big scorers.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15But these were all pointless.
0:42:16 > 0:42:20And also her two duets with Jermaine Jackson, Nobody Loves Me Like You Do
0:42:20 > 0:42:22and Take Good Care Of My Heart.
0:42:22 > 0:42:23All of those were pointless answers.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26There's four on the Madonna album.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32There's also four on the Kylie album.
0:42:32 > 0:42:33And they were...
0:42:37 > 0:42:40Well done if you got any of those at home. Tough luck in the studio.
0:42:40 > 0:42:43Thanks very much indeed. Well, unfortunately we have to say goodbye
0:42:43 > 0:42:45to you, Suzie and Emily, but it's been brilliant
0:42:45 > 0:42:46having you on the show.
0:42:46 > 0:42:48Thank you both so much for playing. Suzie and Emily.
0:42:50 > 0:42:53Well, sadly, Suzie and Emily didn't win our jackpot today which means
0:42:53 > 0:42:57it rolls over onto the next show when we will be playing for £4,000.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Join us then, see if someone can win it.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:03 > 0:43:05And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
