0:00:20 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong
0:00:23 > 0:00:26and welcome to Pointless. This is the show where all the questions
0:00:26 > 0:00:29have been asked to 100 people before the show and all our contestants
0:00:29 > 0:00:33have to do is come up with the answers no-one else could think of. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39- And couple number one.- Hi, I'm Jack, this is my housemate Leo
0:00:39 > 0:00:42and we're students at Manchester.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46- Couple number two.- I'm Emma, this is my mum Ann, and we're from the New Forest.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50- Couple number three.- Hi, I'm Lee, this is Jamie and we're friends from Bristol.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54- And finally, couple number four. - Hello, I'm Lyn, this is my husband Geoff,
0:00:54 > 0:00:58- and we're from Leamington spa. - And these are today's contestants.
0:00:58 > 0:00:59APPLAUSE
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Thanks very much. We'll find out more about each of you throughout
0:01:03 > 0:01:06the show as it goes along. So, that just leaves one more person
0:01:06 > 0:01:09for me to introduce. He's well-bred, well-read, owns his own shed,
0:01:09 > 0:01:13- it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Hi, everybody. Hello.
0:01:17 > 0:01:18- Afternoon.- Afternoon to you.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21You must have a shed as well, have you?
0:01:21 > 0:01:25Not really, no. Oh, yeah, no, we have got a shed, yeah.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27So, more of a wing, yours, isn't it?
0:01:27 > 0:01:29LAUGHTER
0:01:30 > 0:01:33- I joke, of course. How are you today? - I am very well.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36- I'm very well, indeed.- Excellent. Two pairs coming back from last time,
0:01:36 > 0:01:40- Jack and Leo back. That's fun, isn't it?- That's fun. Ooh, we nearly lost them.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44- We nearly lost them.- We nearly lost them into the final.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Jack might be the coolest person we've ever had on the show.
0:01:46 > 0:01:51- The most casually cool person.- Yeah. - Takes it very, very easy,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54doesn't he? But brilliant answers all the way through last time.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56So, you know, you can't knock it, can you?
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Also, from last time, Geoff and Lyn got to Round Two.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02So, we've got to strong pairs coming back here for our new players to play along against.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04So, it should be a lot of fun, I think.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06I think it will be, Richard. Thanks very much.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09All of our questions have been put to 100 people before the show,
0:02:09 > 0:02:13our contestants here are looking for the obscure answers those 100 people didn't give.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Of course, everyone's trying to find a pointless answer,
0:02:16 > 0:02:19that being an answer that none of our 100 people gave, and each time that happens,
0:02:19 > 0:02:23we will add 250 quid to the jackpot. Now, Susie and Emily didn't win
0:02:23 > 0:02:26the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that,
0:02:26 > 0:02:29so today's jackpot starts off at £4,000.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31APPLAUSE
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41OK, now, the pair with the highest score at the end of this round
0:02:41 > 0:02:44and each round, indeed, will be eliminated.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47So, remember that and do what you can to make sure it's not you.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50Best of luck. Our first category today, is...
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Sport. Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:02:55 > 0:02:57who's going to go second?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:08 > 0:03:09Sporting numbers, Richard.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12On each pass, we're going to ask you seven questions about sport -
0:03:12 > 0:03:14the answers to each of them is a number. So, there's going to be
0:03:14 > 0:03:18seven on each board, 14 in all to have a go at home. So, very best of luck.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22OK. So, we're looking for the numerical values that answer
0:03:22 > 0:03:25these sporting questions, and here's our first board of seven.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51I'll read those all one last time...
0:04:13 > 0:04:18Now, Jack, that's a pained look on your face there, Jack.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21- Er...- but it's only a kind of Jack-pain,
0:04:21 > 0:04:23it's kind of a, "Whoa. Oooh."
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Er... I know the answers to some, but...
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Now, Jack, before you answer, before you answer, you're in your last year
0:04:29 > 0:04:32studying politics and philosophy.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Now, looking back over your three-year career there,
0:04:35 > 0:04:38what's been the best thing about university?
0:04:38 > 0:04:42Best thing about university... Meeting Leo, obviously. Come on.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46- That's kind.- How can you even ask that question?
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Well, I only ask because I wanted you to say precisely that.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53How long into your first week was it before you met Leo?
0:04:53 > 0:04:55- Well, they made us live together...- It was the first day.
0:04:55 > 0:05:01- Oh, really, you were match-made? - Yeah.- OK, now, Jack...- Yeah...
0:05:03 > 0:05:06I've got a thought on quite a few of them.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Might play quite risky.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Risky game.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15I'm not sure if it's right, exactly,
0:05:15 > 0:05:18I think I'm going to go for Brian Lara.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22I'm torn between two answers. 501.
0:05:23 > 0:05:30- 501, says Jack.- Maybe. Yeah.- Yeah. - If not, it's the other one. So...
0:05:30 > 0:05:33OK, 501, says Jack, for Brian Lara.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37Let's see if that's right and if it is let's see how many of our hundred people said 501.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44- Oh, Jack. I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.- It's OK.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, scores you 100 points.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Yeah, sorry, Jack. That's probably one of the most famous innings in cricket,
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Brian Lara's 501. But it wasn't in a test match, I'm afraid.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55It was in a county match. So, it was the other one,
0:05:55 > 0:05:58depending on what the other one is you're thinking of. I'm guessing
0:05:58 > 0:06:00- it's the other one you're thinking of.- Maybe.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04- Thanks very much indeed. OK, Emma, welcome to Pointless.- Thank you.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Great to have you here. What do you do, Emma?
0:06:07 > 0:06:10I'm a freelance line producer in the film industry.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14Line producer in the film industry, which means precisely what?
0:06:14 > 0:06:16It means I do all the boring things.
0:06:16 > 0:06:20I deal with money and it's project management, basically.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23- You're basically making sure budgets are adhered to.- Yes.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27Yes, people come to you on bended knee if they want special effects and things like that.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31- Very unglamorous.- Yeah.- It's not fun.- It's your job to say no.- Yes.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34- Really more often than not. - It's really tough.- Yeah.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37- OK, are you working on fun things at the moment?- Yeah, a few things.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41- Quite exciting. Football film... - Got to love a football film.
0:06:41 > 0:06:46- Doesn't mean I know anything about sport.- No. Yes, right.
0:06:46 > 0:06:51But your good on numbers, though. Numbers, that's your bag.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53- I can count.- Exactly.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55LAUGHTER
0:06:55 > 0:07:01This is really bad, kind of play it safe and maybe go for heptathlon,
0:07:01 > 0:07:05- and say that's eight, I think. - You're going to say eight?- Yeah.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08You're going to say eight events in the heptathlon?
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Let's see if that is right and if it is let's see how many
0:07:10 > 0:07:14of our 100 people said eight, for heptathlon.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17No. Oh, bad luck.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20I'm afraid that is another incorrect answer,
0:07:20 > 0:07:24scores you 100 points. Well, you're in very, very good company.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27Yeah, in most sports this would be an amazing round, two centuries already.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31It's impressive stuff. It doesn't really work for us, does it?
0:07:31 > 0:07:36- Now, Jamie, welcome to Pointless. - Thank you.- Jamie, what do you do?
0:07:36 > 0:07:39I work in the Faculty of Arts at Bristol University.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42- What do you do in the Faculty of Arts?- I kind of deal with
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- the day-to-day woes of students, I'd say.- OK.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49I also moonlight as a freelance music journalist.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52- So, do you review things, do you? - I review things,
0:07:52 > 0:07:56- sometimes interview bands, that kind of thing, yeah.- Excellent.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59OK, now, how are you feeling about this round?
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- I'm feeling as if I have a vague idea for all of them...- OK.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05- ..an exact idea for hardly any. - Right, OK.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07That's, yes, welcome to Pointless.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09So, bearing in mind the answers so far,
0:08:09 > 0:08:11I'm going to play it really safe, I think.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15And I'm going to say the number of events in an heptathlon,
0:08:15 > 0:08:18- I'm going for seven.- Seven, in a heptathlon, says Jamie.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:08:21 > 0:08:24let's see how many of our hundred people said seven.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26It's absolutely right.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33- It's a good answer, 27. - Well done, Jamie.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Well done, Jamie.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Yeah, seven. Interesting to see, actually, that 73 out of our 100,
0:08:39 > 0:08:41the "hept" meant nothing to them.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43So, obviously a tougher question than it looks.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Thanks, very much indeed. Now, Jeff.- Hi there.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Now, Jeff I thought I caught you looking quite happy with this,
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- as a round?- Well, I know a few of them, yes.- Well, that's good.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57You have a past in electricals, that's your discipline, isn't it?
0:08:57 > 0:09:02We owned a retail outlet of selling electrical goods equipment
0:09:02 > 0:09:05and that sort of thing. Lyn and I together, for 20 years.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- So, that was a shop?- It was, indeed, yes.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11It was only a small affair. It was a bit like, everybody will know
0:09:11 > 0:09:15the high street electrical stores - we were a smaller version of that.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18Were you the kind of shop where you could turn up with a broken toaster
0:09:18 > 0:09:21- and say, "It's not working," and you'd fix it?- That's what I was doing, yes.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Now, then, Jeff. Look, what about this board?
0:09:24 > 0:09:28Brian Lara, I think was 500, I think he was one out.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Deuce is 40-40, I believe.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Starting players in a rugby league team is 15.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36The number of points awarded to potting the green ball is three.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39I don't know the basketball number. And the length of metres
0:09:39 > 0:09:42in an Olympic size swimming pool, I believe is 100.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45But the one I'm going for, is the green ball, which is three.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Green ball, three, says Jeff. Let's see if that is right
0:09:47 > 0:09:51and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said three.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54It's right.
0:09:58 > 0:09:59APPLAUSE
0:09:59 > 0:10:0333 for three. Seems sort of apt somehow. Well done, Jeff.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Well done, Jeff. Lucky you went for that, Jeff, actually,
0:10:06 > 0:10:10- because you were wrong on pretty much all of them.- Was I?- Yeah.- Typical.
0:10:10 > 0:10:15Said with such confidence, that's how to succeed in life, isn't it?
0:10:15 > 0:10:19- Because the number of runs was 400. - 400?- Yeah.
0:10:19 > 0:10:20It would have scored you six points.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24The number of starting players in a rugby league team is 13, not 15.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Rugby union has 15. 31 points for that.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30And the in length in metres of an Olympic-sized swimming pool is 50,
0:10:30 > 0:10:32rather than 100. Would have scored 39.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36There's too many numbers going around.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39The score at deuce, 40, you're right about that.
0:10:39 > 0:10:44Would've scored 59 points. And Michael Jordan was number 23,
0:10:44 > 0:10:47and that would have scored six points. Brian Lara and Michael Jordan,
0:10:47 > 0:10:50- the best answers on that board. - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53Let's take a look at those scores. 27 the best score of that pass,
0:10:53 > 0:10:57Jamie, well done. Then up to 33, where we find Geoff and Lynne.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Emma and Ann and Jack and Leo tied on 100 there.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03So, yes, it's between you Ann and you, Leo, in the next pass,
0:11:03 > 0:11:06to see who stays and who leaves at the end of the round.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09Best of luck with that. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13Can the second players play step up to the podium?
0:11:13 > 0:11:15OK, let's put seven more sporting questions on the board
0:11:15 > 0:11:17and here they come.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46I'll read those all one final time...
0:12:11 > 0:12:15Now, we are looking for the numerical values of these answers.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18And, Lyn...
0:12:18 > 0:12:20- you're not looking happy.- No.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24Literature is Jeff's worst thing and sport's mine,
0:12:24 > 0:12:26- so...- Ah.- Never mind.
0:12:26 > 0:12:31- So, now, Lyn is it really lovely to have sold the shop?- Yes.
0:12:31 > 0:12:35- Ah.- Well, it's sad in a way because when you've built something up,
0:12:35 > 0:12:40- it's your baby, sort of thing.- Yeah. - Yes, we were...- What's there now?
0:12:40 > 0:12:43We actually passed it on to some friends of ours, so it's still there.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46- So, it's still an electrical shop. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.- That's good.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49- So, its weird.- Our legacy lives on, doesn't it?- Yes.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52That's good. Now, Lyn, what are you going to go for here?
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Well...
0:12:54 > 0:12:57There's only one I think I definitely know
0:12:57 > 0:13:00and it's not going to be a very good answer, but...
0:13:00 > 0:13:03maximum possible score on a standard dartboard
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- with three darts... 180? - 180, says Lynn.
0:13:06 > 0:13:07Let's see if that's right.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11There's your red line. If you can get below that red line with 180,
0:13:11 > 0:13:12you are through to the next round.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16Let's find out if it's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19It is right, of course...
0:13:19 > 0:13:21and sees you into the next round.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Well done. 56.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Takes your total up to 89.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31- Well played, Lynn. Safely through, yeah. Three treble 20s.- Thank you.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- Now, Lee.- Hi.- Welcome to the show.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36From Bristol as well. What do you do, Lee?
0:13:36 > 0:13:40I'm a commissioning manager in NHS mental health services.
0:13:40 > 0:13:44- What does that mean, commissioning manager?- Well, it's kind of...
0:13:44 > 0:13:46The people who are making sure that the services you get
0:13:46 > 0:13:50through the NHS are kind of up to quality and value for money,
0:13:50 > 0:13:54- that kind of thing.- I see.- And safe. - And safe, of course.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- What do you do in your spare time? - A few different things.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00I play football, I write a sports blog
0:14:00 > 0:14:03and I make a bit of music on the side, every now and again.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05OK, well, listen, there you are, you're on 27.
0:14:05 > 0:14:09The highest scorer's still Leo and Jack and Ann and Emma on 100,
0:14:09 > 0:14:11so 72 or less gets you through.
0:14:11 > 0:14:16Right, well, I think I could play it quite safe,
0:14:16 > 0:14:19but I think I'm quite confident on the golf one up there.
0:14:19 > 0:14:24So, I think I'll go with the number of strokes under par for an eagle.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28- I think that's two under par.- Two under par, says Lee, for an eagle.
0:14:28 > 0:14:29Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:14:29 > 0:14:32let's see how many people said it. There's your red line.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35It's right.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37And it sees you through to Round Two, very well done.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41- 48. - APPLAUSE
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- 75, your total, Lee. Well done. - Yeah, well played, Lee.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46One under par's a birdie, two under par an Eagle,
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- three under par is an albatross. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:14:49 > 0:14:54Now, this is where the contest starts. Ann and Leo.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57It's between the pair of you. Ann, welcome to Pointless,
0:14:57 > 0:14:59it's great to have you here. What do you do?.
0:14:59 > 0:15:04Well, I recently gave up work last year to take some time off, to have
0:15:04 > 0:15:07my gap year that all the children had, I'm having one to write a book.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Quite right. Wow, how's that going?
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Well, it's turned into War and Peace, it's going to take
0:15:12 > 0:15:16- a lot of editing, but it's going OK, thank you.- Good stuff.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Well, there you are, you're joint high-scorers with Leo and Jack.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21We have to have a low score from you here, Ann.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24- How do you feel about this board? - Well, sport...
0:15:24 > 0:15:28It's not my favourite subject and there was only one that I knew,
0:15:28 > 0:15:31which was the 180.
0:15:34 > 0:15:40I'm going to have at the bases in baseball, including the home base...
0:15:40 > 0:15:45- would it be four?- OK, you're going to say four bases in baseball.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Let's see if that's right, no red line for you
0:15:48 > 0:15:50as you're joint high-scorers, but let's see if four is right.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52How many people said it, if it is?
0:15:54 > 0:15:56It's right.
0:16:00 > 0:16:0227.
0:16:02 > 0:16:03APPLAUSE
0:16:03 > 0:16:0727 takes your total up to 127.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10- Is that going to be enough to keep you in the game?- Yeah, well played.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12There was a famous pitcher with the San Francisco Giants,
0:16:12 > 0:16:16called Gaylord Perry, in the '60s and he'd never hit a home run in his entire career.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18And his coach had said, he was quoted as saying,
0:16:18 > 0:16:21"They'll put a man on the moon before Gaylord Perry hits a home run."
0:16:21 > 0:16:25He hit his first one an hour after Neil Armstrong landed on the moon.
0:16:25 > 0:16:30- Isn't that amazing? - What other things did his coach say?
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- That's brilliant!- It's quite good, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now then, Leo.
0:16:35 > 0:16:40Right, OK, here it comes... You have to score 26 or less.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43You have to score 26 or less.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46There's no way we can be sending you a home at the end of this round.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50Here's hoping not, but most are the ones I knew have gone.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52And sport, I am just terrible at.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56Do you want to just talk us through that board?
0:16:56 > 0:17:01So, the number of the fly half, I think is number ten.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04If I had to guess at the runners, I'd say eight.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07I've no idea about Australian Rules football
0:17:07 > 0:17:13and I know it's 45 for a half of football, but I suppose...
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- I'll have to go with number ten for the fly half.- The fly half.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Number ten.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21OK, let's find out, the fly half's number, number ten.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Is that right? If it is, how many people said it?
0:17:24 > 0:17:26There's your red line.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31It's right.
0:17:31 > 0:17:32It's right.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34It's still going down.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38You've done it! 15. Very well done, Leo.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Very exciting. That's exactly what you needed to do.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44115 is your total, you are in Round Two.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48Well played, Leo, very nicely played. You knew a few of them and
0:17:48 > 0:17:50it's the only one that would've scored few enough points.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53You were right about eight runners in the Olympic 100 metres,
0:17:53 > 0:17:55but would have scored you 34.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58And you were right about the number of minutes in a half of football,
0:17:58 > 0:18:0145 minutes, but a big scorer. Would've scored you 52.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04And the best answer up there is the number of on-field players
0:18:04 > 0:18:07- in an Aussie Rules football team, which is 18.- Really?
0:18:07 > 0:18:11Almost impossible to guess. Yeah. Two points, so well done if you said that.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14Thanks very much indeed, Richard. We're at the end of our first round
0:18:14 > 0:18:17and the pair heading home... What an exciting end to that round, it was.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Ann and Emma.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20If it was called a septathlon, it would be easy.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24- But heptathlon, they're just putting people off the scent there.- Yeah.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Anyway, I'm afraid we're going have to say goodbye to you now,
0:18:27 > 0:18:29but we will see you again next time.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32- But thanks very much for playing, Ann and Emma.- Thank you.- Thank you.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34APPLAUSE
0:18:34 > 0:18:38But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for our Round Two.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45So, three pairs remain. Obviously at the, end of this round,
0:18:45 > 0:18:47we'll have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Well, this is going to be very exciting.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two is...
0:18:54 > 0:18:57UNESCO. Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:18:57 > 0:18:59who's going to go second?
0:18:59 > 0:19:02And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes...
0:19:06 > 0:19:09We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:19:14 > 0:19:18Countries with natural UNESCO World Heritage sites. Richard.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Yeah, we're looking for any country which has at least one site
0:19:21 > 0:19:25on that list, please. One site of the UNESCO natural World Heritage site list.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Some countries have lots and there's about 100 countries in all,
0:19:27 > 0:19:29which have at least one site on there.
0:19:29 > 0:19:33So, we're looking for any country and by country we mean a sovereign state
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- that's a member of the UN. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:19:37 > 0:19:41So, Leo.
0:19:41 > 0:19:46Well, I'm going to go for one that I know has a natural feature in it
0:19:46 > 0:19:51- and say Venezuela.- Venezuela, says Leo. Sounds fair enough.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Let's see if Venezuela's right and, if it is,
0:19:53 > 0:19:55let's see how many of our 100 people said Venezuela.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59It's right.
0:20:03 > 0:20:04It's a good answer.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07It's a very good answer. 1 is what it scores.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11Leo, well done, back in the game.
0:20:11 > 0:20:15Well played, Leo. Yeah, Canaima National Park, it's in Venezuela -
0:20:15 > 0:20:19- a world Heritage site.- Mm. - 3 million hectares.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22That's big. I wouldn't want to have to mow that.
0:20:24 > 0:20:25It's where the Angel Falls is,
0:20:25 > 0:20:28which I suspect is what you were thinking of.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30Thanks very much indeed.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32Now, Jamie. Jamie... OK.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35You look like somebody who's quite confident.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40I'm... I'm confident the place I'm about to name is a country.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42LAUGHTER
0:20:42 > 0:20:46- That is good. A lot of people fall at that hurdle.- Oh, yeah.
0:20:46 > 0:20:50- So, I'm going to say Mexico.- Mexico.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Let's find out, is it right and how many people said it?
0:20:55 > 0:21:00Absolutely right. Well, 1 is our only score so far.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Will you equal or better that? 12 for Mexico.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04APPLAUSE
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Yeah, they've got five in Mexico - virtually the whole country.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16- OK, now, Geoff.- Hiya.- Geoff.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Well, I've got a few in mind.
0:21:19 > 0:21:20I need to score low, I think,
0:21:20 > 0:21:25so I'm going to take a real punt and go for Australia.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Australia, says Geoff. Let's see if Australia's right,
0:21:28 > 0:21:30let's see how many of our 100 people said Australia.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35It is, of course, right.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38Well, 12 is our highest score, 1 is our low.
0:21:38 > 0:21:4127 is our new high score for Australia there.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Yeah, they've got 12 sites in Australia, all sorts,
0:21:46 > 0:21:48including the Great Barrier Reef, of course,
0:21:48 > 0:21:51the Greater Blue Mountains, as well. All sorts.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Thanks very much. We're halfway through the round.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Let's take a look at those scores.
0:21:55 > 0:21:581 the best score of that pass, Leo. Very, very well done.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Up to 12, where we find Jamie and Lee, up to 27, Geoff and Lyn.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Now, Lyn, anything can happen in this next pass.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06What we definitely need from you is a low score
0:22:06 > 0:22:09because you are out in front at the moment, so best of luck.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11We're going to come back down the line.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Can the second players step up to the podium?
0:22:15 > 0:22:18OK, so we're looking for the name of any country that has at least
0:22:18 > 0:22:23one natural UNESCO World Heritage Site. Lyn.
0:22:23 > 0:22:28Not one of my best subjects, so I'm going say Canada.
0:22:28 > 0:22:29Canada, says Lyn.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31Let's see if that's right, no red line for you
0:22:31 > 0:22:32as you're the high-scorers,
0:22:32 > 0:22:34but let's see how many people said Canada.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38It's right, of course.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Not a bad answer, 24.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47That takes your total up to 51.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Yeah, Canada, of course, has multiple entries on the list,
0:22:50 > 0:22:54- including the famous Rocky Mountain Parks.- Thanks very much indeed.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58- Now, Lee.- Hi.- Lee, 51 the high score.
0:22:58 > 0:23:02You're on 12, so 38 or less keeps you in the game.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05OK, this might be right.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08It's a bit of a punt. I'm going to go for Peru.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Peru, says Lee.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 said Peru.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14There's your red line.
0:23:16 > 0:23:17It's right.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22And it gets you through to the head-to-head. Very well done indeed.
0:23:22 > 0:23:2613 for Peru. 25 your total.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30Yeah, well played, Lee. They've got two natural sites,
0:23:30 > 0:23:33but also the historic sanctuary of Machu Picchu
0:23:33 > 0:23:35is on the mixed UNESCO list.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Jack.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42OK, so, well, I don't know any, but,
0:23:42 > 0:23:44I mean, I can take a punt, obviously.
0:23:44 > 0:23:49I'll name a country that looks quite nice, I imagine.
0:23:49 > 0:23:55So I'm going to say... I'm going to go Indonesia.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59- Indonesia, says Jack.- Yeah.- OK, there is your red line.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01You have to get below that red line,
0:24:01 > 0:24:03if you do, you are in the head-to-head.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06Let's see if Indonesia is right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12It's right. Very well done, Jack.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16You are in the head-to-head, very well done. It's still going down.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18That's a great answer, 1.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22You equal Leo's excellent answer of Venezuela.
0:24:22 > 0:24:252 is your total. Well played.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Yeah, well played, Jack. Four sites in Indonesia,
0:24:27 > 0:24:32including the Komodo Islands, which are home to 5,700 Komodo dragons.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Now, there's lots of pointless answers here -
0:24:34 > 0:24:37let's take a look at a few of them.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39You could have said...
0:24:48 > 0:24:50You could've had Namibia.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53Their sand sea was put on the list in 2013,
0:24:53 > 0:24:55so you can see they're still adding to the list.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Panama and Zambia, as well, which is the home of Victoria Falls,
0:24:58 > 0:25:01which is a natural Heritage Site.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Let's take a look at the top three answers -
0:25:03 > 0:25:05the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08Some of these will be familiar on podium four, I'm afraid.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11Because, in third, it's Canada with 24.
0:25:11 > 0:25:16Second, Australia with 27 and then, right at the top, the USA with 30.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20So at the end of our second round, the pair heading home
0:25:20 > 0:25:24with their high score of 51, I'm afraid, it's Lyn and Geoff,
0:25:24 > 0:25:27but I'm afraid this is where we have to say goodbye. I'm sorry.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29It's been great having you on the show.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32- Lyn and Geoff.- It's been fantastic. Thank you.
0:25:34 > 0:25:38But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Well, congratulations, Lee and Jamie, Jack and Leo.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46You are now one step closer to the final
0:25:46 > 0:25:48and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:25:48 > 0:25:51which currently stands at £4,000.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55So, now we have to decide who's going to play for that money
0:25:55 > 0:25:57and to do that you are going to go head-to-head.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59The difference being you're now allowed to confer
0:25:59 > 0:26:01before you give your answers,
0:26:01 > 0:26:02and the first pair to win two questions
0:26:02 > 0:26:04will be playing for the jackpot.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08Well, this is going to be an epic head-to-head, of that I am certain.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:26:24 > 0:26:25Muscles in the human body, Richard.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27We're going to show you five diagrams now,
0:26:27 > 0:26:29highlighting particular muscles in the human body.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32We need you to give us the scientific or medical or short form name
0:26:32 > 0:26:35for any of the muscles you're about to see. Good luck.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38OK, let's reveal our five muscles, and here they are.
0:26:38 > 0:26:39We've got...
0:26:59 > 0:27:01OK, there we are - five muscle groups.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04Lee and Jamie, you've played best throughout the show
0:27:04 > 0:27:06so far, so you will go first.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20I think we're going to go for E, abdominal.
0:27:20 > 0:27:24E, abdominal, say Lee and Jamie.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Now, Jack and Leo, the board is all yours.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29- Talk us through as many of them as you can.- I think we know...
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Well, we can guess at most of them.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33A, gluteals. Gluteus maximus.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36Gluteus maximus, something like that.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40B, I'm thinking... I'm not too sure, like a trapezy...
0:27:40 > 0:27:43A trapezium or trapezoid, is it?
0:27:43 > 0:27:46Or C, pectoral.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48D, deltoid.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52- Which one do you want to go for? - I'm thinking...
0:27:52 > 0:27:55- Most confident with deltoid. - Let's go with deltoid.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59- Sounds good.- D, deltoid. - D, deltoid, say Jack and Leo.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01So, we have abdominals, we have deltoid.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04Lee and Jamie said abdominals for E.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:28:09 > 0:28:10It's right.
0:28:15 > 0:28:1627 for abdominals.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21Now then, Jack and Leo, meanwhile,
0:28:21 > 0:28:25have said that D is the deltoid muscle.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27Let's see if that's right, and, if it is,
0:28:27 > 0:28:29let's see how many people said deltoid.
0:28:30 > 0:28:31It's right.
0:28:33 > 0:28:34It has to beat 27...
0:28:35 > 0:28:37..and it does.
0:28:37 > 0:28:41Oh, it's a good answer. Look at that! 1 for deltoid!
0:28:41 > 0:28:44That's a great answer, very well done.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47And it means Jack and Leo, you've broken their serve.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49You are up 1-0 after one question.
0:28:49 > 0:28:53Yeah, deltoid, the best answer on the board, so very well played.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56A, you're right, is the gluteus maximus or glutes -
0:28:56 > 0:28:59would have scored you 25 points.
0:29:00 > 0:29:05B is the trapezius, or traps, would have scored you 5 points.
0:29:06 > 0:29:11C is the pectoral muscles, or the pecs, would have scored you 30.
0:29:11 > 0:29:15So, best answer on that board, deltoid. Very well played.
0:29:15 > 0:29:19Thanks very much indeed. OK, here comes your second question.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21Lee and Jamie, you have to win this one to stay in the game,
0:29:21 > 0:29:23so best of luck. It concerns...
0:29:27 > 0:29:28Simon Cowell, Richard.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31Yeah, talking of gluteus maximus...
0:29:33 > 0:29:36We are going to show you five clues now to facts about Simon Cowell.
0:29:36 > 0:29:40- Can you give us the most obscure answer?- Thanks very much indeed.
0:29:40 > 0:29:42OK, let's reveal our five clues and here they come.
0:30:03 > 0:30:04I'll read those all one last time.
0:30:22 > 0:30:26Now, Jack and Leo, it's you to go first.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38We think we know two of them,
0:30:38 > 0:30:41but we're going to go with the animated show is The Simpsons.
0:30:41 > 0:30:44The Simpsons, say Jack and Leo. The Simpsons.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46Now, Lee and Jamie,
0:30:46 > 0:30:48do you fancy talking us through the rest of the board?
0:30:48 > 0:30:52The group featured in the film is One Direction, I think.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54And we're a bit torn over the last one,
0:30:54 > 0:30:57whether it's Mr Blobby or Robson and Jerome.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02I think both will be lower than The Simpsons though.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04One Direction are very popular.
0:31:04 > 0:31:10- OK, we'll go with Mr Blobby then for the '93 single.- OK, Mr Blobby.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13So we have The Simpsons versus Mr Blobby.
0:31:13 > 0:31:14Jack and Leo said The Simpsons.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16Let's see if that's right, and, if it is,
0:31:16 > 0:31:18let's see how many people said The Simpsons.
0:31:19 > 0:31:20It's right.
0:31:25 > 0:31:2732.
0:31:29 > 0:31:3132 for The Simpsons.
0:31:31 > 0:31:32Lee and Jamie, meanwhile,
0:31:32 > 0:31:35have said Mr Blobby was the 1993 Christmas number one single.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37Let's see if that's right, and, if it is,
0:31:37 > 0:31:39let's see how many people said that.
0:31:40 > 0:31:41It's right.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47And it wins you the point. Well done, you've broken back.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49Good! 8 to 32.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54After two questions, it's 1-1.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57Terrific head-to-head. That's a smart risk to take
0:31:57 > 0:31:59because the other one you knew - It was One Direction -
0:31:59 > 0:32:01but would have scored too many points.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04Would've scored you 36, so very, very well played there.
0:32:04 > 0:32:08He was born in Brighton - that would've scored 12 points.
0:32:08 > 0:32:12And the first name of his mother - hello, if you're watching - is Julie.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15And would've scored you 4 points, best answer on the board.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17Thanks very much indeed. So, here comes your third question.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20This is the decider. Whoever wins this goes through to the final
0:32:20 > 0:32:24and plays for that jackpot. Best of luck to both pairs. It concerns...
0:32:28 > 0:32:31The works of Leonardo da Vinci, Richard.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33We're going to show you five names of works by Leonardo da Vinci
0:32:33 > 0:32:36in their English names, but we've left out alternate letters.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38Can you fill them in and give us the most obscure?
0:32:38 > 0:32:41- Best of luck, both teams. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:32:41 > 0:32:45OK, let's reveal our five Leonardo da Vinci works and here they are.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03I'll read those all one last time.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21Now then, Lee and Jamie, you will go first.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37OK, we're going to have to go...
0:33:37 > 0:33:41I think we might get done by an ancient history class here,
0:33:41 > 0:33:46- but we'll go The Last Supper. - The Last Supper, say Lee and Jamie.
0:33:46 > 0:33:47The Last Supper.
0:33:47 > 0:33:51So then, Jack and Leo, talk us through that board if you can.
0:33:51 > 0:33:55All right, well, the second one is Adoration of the Magi.
0:33:55 > 0:33:56Don't know what the third one is.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59The fourth one's Mona Lisa, and the last one, I think,
0:33:59 > 0:34:02is Vitruvian Man.
0:34:02 > 0:34:03I think...
0:34:03 > 0:34:05Your call, man, your call.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07I'm going to go with Vitruvian Man.
0:34:07 > 0:34:11OK, Vitruvian Man, say Jack and Leo. Vitruvian Man.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14So, we have The Last Supper versus Vitruvian Man.
0:34:14 > 0:34:15Lee and Jamie said The Last Supper.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18Let's see if that's right, and let's see how many people said it.
0:34:20 > 0:34:21It's right.
0:34:26 > 0:34:2826 for The Last Supper.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33Now then, Jack and Leo, meanwhile,
0:34:33 > 0:34:36have gone for Vitruvian Man at the bottom there.
0:34:36 > 0:34:37Let's see if that's right and, if it is,
0:34:37 > 0:34:40let's see how many of our 100 people said Vitruvian Man.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44It's right.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49And you're through, very well done indeed.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51Look at that, down to 6 for Vitruvian Man.
0:34:51 > 0:34:55Very, very well played.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59Jack and Leo, you've broken serve twice there.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02And after three questions, you are through to the final, 2-1.
0:35:02 > 0:35:04Very nicely done there, Leo.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06Now, there is actually a pointless answer up there.
0:35:06 > 0:35:12It's not Mona Lisa because that would have scored you 75 points,
0:35:12 > 0:35:15but it is Adoration of the Magi.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18It would have added £250 to the jackpot - terrific answer.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21The other one, easier to work out just from the words, this one -
0:35:21 > 0:35:25it's the Virgin of the Rocks - would've scored you 2 points.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:35:29 > 0:35:32I'm afraid, it's Lee and Jamie.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34Very solid performance throughout the show today.
0:35:34 > 0:35:37It's good news because it means we get to see you next time,
0:35:37 > 0:35:39otherwise it would have been over in one show.
0:35:39 > 0:35:41We'll look forward to that, but Lee and Jamie,
0:35:41 > 0:35:43thanks very much for playing, meanwhile.
0:35:46 > 0:35:49But, for Jack and Leo, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:52 > 0:35:54Congratulations, Jack and Leo,
0:35:54 > 0:35:57you fought off all the competition valiantly and you have won
0:35:57 > 0:36:01our coveted Pointless trophy, so huge congratulations.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:36:08 > 0:36:12and, at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £4,000.
0:36:14 > 0:36:18I think this is exactly the right result, though, I mean,
0:36:18 > 0:36:21one misstep, which was the Brian Lara answer in the first round,
0:36:21 > 0:36:24but then after that you've had a string of low-scoring ones.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27Actually, you knew a pointless answer in that head-to-head round,
0:36:27 > 0:36:30so, you know, you now know where you have to go for this round.
0:36:30 > 0:36:32So, perfect preparation.
0:36:32 > 0:36:33As always, you get to choose your category
0:36:33 > 0:36:35from the four options we give you.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38Let's see what today's options are. We've got the...
0:36:47 > 0:36:50- Well...- Yes, ancient history.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52Ancient Greek literature, I've done modules on that.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55I should be able to, but it'll make me nervous.
0:36:55 > 0:36:56Yeah, and I won't have the foggiest.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58Other than that, the only one we could really do
0:36:58 > 0:37:03is US cities in popular culture. Are you willing to trust me?
0:37:03 > 0:37:07Well, what did you score in your last ancient Greek, come on?
0:37:07 > 0:37:10Oh, low, low, but let's ignore that exam.
0:37:10 > 0:37:14That changes everything now.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16- Do you trust me?- Yeah, I trust you. I trust you, man.
0:37:16 > 0:37:20More fool you, but, OK, let's do ancient Greek literature.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23OK, you're going to go for ancient Greek literature, Richard.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25This will be a hell of a way to finish up
0:37:25 > 0:37:28if you get a jackpot on this, guys. Very, very best of luck.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30Here are your three options. We're looking for...
0:37:41 > 0:37:44There are your three options. Very, very best of luck.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47OK, now, as always,
0:37:47 > 0:37:49you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers,
0:37:49 > 0:37:51and all you need to win that jackpot, quite a nice size
0:37:51 > 0:37:56of jackpot by now, is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59- Are you ready? - As ready as I'll ever be.
0:37:59 > 0:38:02OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock. Your time starts now.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04All right, so have you got any?
0:38:04 > 0:38:06I know that he did that Antigone, Sophocles.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09Yeah, but they're asking for a character,
0:38:09 > 0:38:12- and that's not one of the Theban plays.- OK.- Oedipus is.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14So, Aristophanes, he did...
0:38:14 > 0:38:16We could go with Lysistrata and Knights -
0:38:16 > 0:38:19- those are two pretty good ones. - Both amazing, love them.- Oresteia.
0:38:19 > 0:38:21I think there's a messenger in it,
0:38:21 > 0:38:25although, I think there is in the Theban plays by Sophocles, but...
0:38:25 > 0:38:28We could say Messenger, I think that might be his title.
0:38:32 > 0:38:33It's all you.
0:38:33 > 0:38:38And... Trying to think of any... The other characters in the Oresteia.
0:38:38 > 0:38:39Er...
0:38:41 > 0:38:44I can't remember what his teacher's called, that's really annoying.
0:38:44 > 0:38:48So, we could say Electra is one, Orestes is one.
0:38:48 > 0:38:52Another Aristophanes play would be Birds or Frogs. Birds.
0:38:52 > 0:38:56- Ten seconds left.- Shall we say those three Aristophanes plays?- Of course.
0:38:56 > 0:39:00Just because I can't remember any of the characters, which is annoying,
0:39:00 > 0:39:02but... And, yeah, there we go.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05OK, so you've got your three answers. That is your time up.
0:39:05 > 0:39:06Let's hear what they are.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09- They're all plays by Aristophanes. - OK, all Aristophanes.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11- And it's Birds...- Birds.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13- ..Lysistrata...- Lysistrata.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16- ..and Knights.- And Knights.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Of those three, what's your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:18 > 0:39:21- I think Knights. - Knights, we'll put last.
0:39:21 > 0:39:23- Least likely?- Birds.- Birds.
0:39:23 > 0:39:25And Lysistrata we'll put in the middle.
0:39:25 > 0:39:29OK, let's pop those up on the board in that order and here they are.
0:39:29 > 0:39:30We've got...
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Now, three good answers up there on the board.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39If you win that jackpot today, £4,000,
0:39:39 > 0:39:42what would you do with it, Jack?
0:39:42 > 0:39:45Oh, I've not really planned for it.
0:39:45 > 0:39:48I'd probably just cleverly invest it.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55No, no, I'm a bit more, you know, ambitious and that.
0:39:55 > 0:40:00- Maybe just travelling or... Some sort of travelling.- OK, Leo?
0:40:00 > 0:40:02This is quite sensible. I want to get it all out in cash
0:40:02 > 0:40:04so I can roll around in it,
0:40:04 > 0:40:07- just because when do you get to do that?- Yeah, that's fine.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10Then I'll put it back in and do something sensible, but first...
0:40:10 > 0:40:11- Yeah.- ..roll in it.- OK, good stuff.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13Well, The Birds, was your first answer,
0:40:13 > 0:40:16the one you thought was least likely to be pointless.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18Remember, only one of these answers has to be pointless
0:40:18 > 0:40:20for you to win the jackpot of £4,000.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Let's see if The Birds is right.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24Let's see if it's pointless for £4,000.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32It's right. That was the first thing it had to be.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34Now, the next thing it has to be is pointless,
0:40:34 > 0:40:36so down it goes, through the 30s, through the 20s,
0:40:36 > 0:40:38through the teens, into single figures.
0:40:38 > 0:40:42- 7! OK, The Birds... - OK, OK, all right.
0:40:42 > 0:40:43This is fine.
0:40:43 > 0:40:47You had no hesitation putting that as your first choice,
0:40:47 > 0:40:49your least likely to be pointless, and so it has proved.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51It's still a great answer.
0:40:51 > 0:40:53You'd be thrilled with 7 in normal gameplay.
0:40:53 > 0:40:55So, two more chances to win today's jackpots.
0:40:55 > 0:40:59Your second answer is Lysistrata or Lysistrata.
0:40:59 > 0:41:01Again, this has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:41:01 > 0:41:06So, let's find out, for £4,000, how many people said Lysistrata.
0:41:09 > 0:41:10It's right.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12So, your first answer was The Birds,
0:41:12 > 0:41:15that took us all the way down to 7, your second answer,
0:41:15 > 0:41:18Lysistrata or Lysistrata, takes us down to the teens,
0:41:18 > 0:41:19into single figures, down it goes,
0:41:19 > 0:41:22you've got it! Very well done indeed.
0:41:22 > 0:41:24That's a fantastic win. Brilliant!
0:41:24 > 0:41:26Very well done indeed.
0:41:33 > 0:41:38Very, very well done indeed. A very popular win in the studio here.
0:41:38 > 0:41:41Congratulations. Lysistrata was a pointless answer,
0:41:41 > 0:41:45which means you go home with that jackpot of £4,000. Very well done.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47Great play throughout the show.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55That's the way to win it. Well done, guys.
0:41:55 > 0:41:56You've been brilliant for two shows
0:41:56 > 0:41:58and you're thoroughly nice men as well.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00It's been a pleasure having you.
0:42:00 > 0:42:03The Knights, also a pointless answer.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06- Who is this guy?- Good man, good man.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11Let's take a look at some other pointless answers
0:42:11 > 0:42:13for Aristophanes first. There is yours.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19You also could have had The Archarnians or Women at the Festival -
0:42:19 > 0:42:21all of those were pointless answers.
0:42:21 > 0:42:24Let's take a look at the Aeschylus one.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31You said Electra. Electra would have scored you 1 point,
0:42:31 > 0:42:34so would've been a very good answer, but would have prolonged the agony.
0:42:34 > 0:42:37And let's take a look at the Sophocles ones.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42All of those pointless answers.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Very well done if you got any of those at home
0:42:44 > 0:42:46and congratulations in the studio.
0:42:46 > 0:42:48Well, thanks once again to our winning players, Jack and Leo,
0:42:48 > 0:42:51who go away with today's jackpot of £4,000.
0:42:55 > 0:42:58Join us next time, when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge
0:42:58 > 0:43:01to the test on Pointless. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...
0:43:01 > 0:43:03- Goodbye. - ..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
