0:00:18 > 0:00:19APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:00:21 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:25 > 0:00:28where we are always striving to find the most obscure answers.
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Let's meet today's players.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31APPLAUSE
0:00:33 > 0:00:35- Couple number one. - Hello, I'm Carroll.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38This is my daughter Eleanor, and we are from Wymondham in Norfolk.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41- Couple number two. - Hello, I'm Paul from Reading,
0:00:41 > 0:00:44and this is one of my three sisters, Liz, also from Reading.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46- Couple number three. - Hello, I'm Sarah.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49This is my boyfriend David and we're from Exeter in Devon.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51And finally couple number four.
0:00:51 > 0:00:52Hello, I'm Stephen from Chester
0:00:52 > 0:00:55and this is my friend Kirt from Blackburn.
0:00:55 > 0:00:56These are today's contestants.
0:00:56 > 0:00:57APPLAUSE
0:00:59 > 0:01:00Thanks very much, all of you.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03We'll get to know more about each of you throughout the show as
0:01:03 > 0:01:06it goes along, so that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09His opinions pack more punch than a Cassius Clay right hook.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12- It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17- Hi, everybody. Good afternoon. Good afternoon to you.- And to you.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19I've barely recovered from that last show.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20It was quite something, wasn't it?
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Sarah and David got through to the head-to-head.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26They were playing against Fiona and Louise, who took that 2-0.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Got through to the jackpot round. Three pointless answers.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- Three in a row. How about that? It was impressive, wasn't it?- Mm.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35But Sarah and David, as I say, you got through to the head-to-head,
0:01:35 > 0:01:36so they'll be tough to beat.
0:01:36 > 0:01:40Kirt and Stephen knocked out in the first round because of Stephen's
0:01:40 > 0:01:43film knowledge. But I think they've probably got more in the tank.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45- Don't you think? You can tell sometimes.- I think so.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47So I think they're going to be tough to beat as well.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49It should be a cracker of a show.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Round One, the category or question makes me laugh,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54and I think it will make anyone over 35 have a little chuckle.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58Anyone under 35 will go... What does that mean?
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- It's always nice to have a chuckle. - Isn't it nice to have a chuckle?
0:02:01 > 0:02:03- Exactly.- Thanks very much indeed.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Now, all our questions on Pointless have been put
0:02:05 > 0:02:07to 100 people before the show.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Our contestants are looking for those obscure answers
0:02:09 > 0:02:10our 100 people didn't get.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13Of course, everyone is trying to find a pointless answer,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16that being an answer that nobody got. Each time that happens,
0:02:16 > 0:02:17we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Now, Fiona and Louise won the jackpot last time,
0:02:20 > 0:02:23so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26Right, if everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28APPLAUSE
0:02:31 > 0:02:34All you have to remember is the pair with the highest
0:02:34 > 0:02:36score at the end of the round will be eliminated.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39So do everything you can to make sure that's not you.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Our first category today is Famous People.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46Are we chuckling yet? Famous People.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50Can everyone decide in their pairs who will go first and second?
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56OK, the question concerns...
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Famous Rods, Janes and Freddies.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06- Excellent.- That's nice, isn't it?
0:03:06 > 0:03:07- To everybody over 35.- Exactly.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Anyone under 35, not even going to explain it to you.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12You'll find out one day.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15We will show you seven descriptions of famous people who were
0:03:15 > 0:03:16called either Rod, Jane or Freddie.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19You just need to tell us who that famous person is, please.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22There will be 14 Rods, Janes and Freddies to guess. Very best of luck.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Thanks very much indeed.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27So, we are looking for these famous Rods, Janes and Freddies.
0:03:27 > 0:03:28Here is our first board of seven.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57I will read those all one last time.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- Now, Ellie, welcome to the show. - Hello.- Great to have you here.
0:04:28 > 0:04:29What do you do?
0:04:29 > 0:04:34I work for a small media agency that does consumer insights
0:04:34 > 0:04:37and market research for under-21s,
0:04:37 > 0:04:41so it is all speaking to young people about what makes them tick.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43And how do you get your information? From surveys?
0:04:43 > 0:04:45It's a mixture, really.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49We do surveys, we have focus groups, we do client immersions,
0:04:49 > 0:04:52which is when you get the head of big businesses to come hang out
0:04:52 > 0:04:55- with kids on the street. - I bet they love that.- They do!
0:04:55 > 0:04:59OK, now then, Ellie. Who are the people described on this board?
0:05:01 > 0:05:02OK.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05I am going to have to play it really safe
0:05:05 > 0:05:08and go for stage name of the Queen vocalist - Freddie Mercury.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11Freddie Mercury, says Ellie. Let's see if that's right,
0:05:11 > 0:05:14and let's see how many of our 100 people said Freddie Mercury.
0:05:22 > 0:05:2450 for Freddie Mercury.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Yes, sometimes you have to play it safe,
0:05:26 > 0:05:27especially on that first podium.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30He was an avid and fastidious philatelist, Freddie Mercury.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32What was his best stamp?
0:05:32 > 0:05:36I don't have details of his stamp collection, I just know he had one.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40- He was committed, passionate.- Yeah, he loved it.- Good. Now then, Liz.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44- Welcome.- Thank you.- Good to have you here. From Reading.
0:05:44 > 0:05:45What do you do, Liz?
0:05:45 > 0:05:50- I'm a sports coach. - Which sports do you coach?
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Mainly gymnastics, netball, trampolining.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58- Are you a bit of an ace trampoliner? - An ex-ace, maybe.
0:05:58 > 0:06:03- I don't do so much now.- What's your best move on a trampoline?
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Best move I would say...
0:06:06 > 0:06:09..tuck-back crash-dive half-out.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Tuck-back crash-dive half-out, yes, yes.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15- It's been a few years now since I've done that.- Very good. Now then, Liz.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17How about these Rods, Janes and Freddies?
0:06:17 > 0:06:19OK. Um...
0:06:21 > 0:06:25I get things mixed up sometimes, and I promised my brother that
0:06:25 > 0:06:28I wouldn't take a chance.
0:06:28 > 0:06:33So I'm going to go for the Australian tennis player Rod Laver.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Rod Laver. Let's see if that's right,
0:06:35 > 0:06:39and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42It's right.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Nothing mixed up about that, Liz.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46Absolutely on the money. 36.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48APPLAUSE
0:06:51 > 0:06:52Terrific answer, Liz.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54It's lovely to have a contestant who just admits,
0:06:54 > 0:06:55I get mixed up sometimes.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Because, actually, that's what everyone wants to say all the time.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00We sort of know stuff, don't we?
0:07:00 > 0:07:03But by and large we get stuff mixed up quite a lot.
0:07:03 > 0:07:08Thanks very much, Richard. Now then, Sarah. Welcome back to Pointless.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11- Thank you. - Remind us what you do, Sarah.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14- I'm a researcher at the University of Exeter.- That's right.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Now, how do you and David know each other?
0:07:16 > 0:07:20We met on a geography field trip to Switzerland
0:07:20 > 0:07:22when we were in sixth form college.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24That's a cool place to go on a geography field trip, isn't it?
0:07:24 > 0:07:28- I know. Very lucky.- Switzerland! What were you doing there?
0:07:28 > 0:07:33- Gosh, what did we do there?- You can't remember. You were too...yeah.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- Like you remember. - Mountains... Did some colouring in!
0:07:35 > 0:07:39I think you know exactly what went on on that field trip.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Not a lot of geography, but there we are.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45Now then, Sarah, what are you going to go for on this board?
0:07:45 > 0:07:51- Unfortunately, I'm under 35, and I get my Janes a bit mixed up.- OK.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54That was veering dangerously close to a "before my time".
0:07:54 > 0:07:58- It was a little bit, wasn't it? - But I think you rescued it.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05I'm going to just have to take a guess at actress
0:08:05 > 0:08:09and political activist Jane Seymour.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14I think it's unlikely, but...
0:08:14 > 0:08:18OK, Jane Seymour. Let's see if that's right, shall we?
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Jane Seymour, Hanoi Jane.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26No, not Jane Seymour I'm afraid, Sarah.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30An incorrect answer, that scores you the maximum of 100 points.
0:08:30 > 0:08:31Yes, not Jane Seymour, I'm afraid.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34There is an actress called Jane Seymour, as well as a wife
0:08:34 > 0:08:38of Henry VIII, but neither were known as Hanoi Jane, I'm afraid.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43Thanks very much. Now, Stephen. Welcome back.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46First round last time, which I think was unfortunate.
0:08:46 > 0:08:51You weren't that far off it. This time round, it will be different.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Remind us what you do, Stephen.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57- I'm a project manager for a football community trust.- That's right.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Football, obviously a big part of your life.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Apart from that, what else do you like to get up to?
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Really into playing football, obviously,
0:09:05 > 0:09:07watching as much football as possible,
0:09:07 > 0:09:11outside of work and in work. But also play a bit of golf.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15- Anything generally quite sporty, really.- OK. This board is all yours.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18Why not talk me through it?
0:09:21 > 0:09:26- OK.- I actually knew Rod Laver and Freddie Mercury.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29I've not a clue about Twilight Zone.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32I think I know the bottom two, possibly.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36The last one may be Jane Bakewell.
0:09:37 > 0:09:43But I'm going to go with who played Fred in the 2002 live-action
0:09:43 > 0:09:47Scooby-Doo, Freddie Prinze Jr.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51Freddie Prinze Jr, says Stephen. Kirt seems happy with that.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52Let's see if it's right,
0:09:52 > 0:09:55and if it is let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00It's right. Very well done, Stephen.
0:10:04 > 0:10:0613.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07APPLAUSE
0:10:07 > 0:10:10The best score of the round so far, so very well done, Stephen.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Well done, Stephen. You were telling us last time you knew nothing about
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- film.- I know, I know!- Freddie Prinze Jr is quite an obscure one.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20He later married his co-star in that, Sarah Michelle Gellar.
0:10:20 > 0:10:21It's a good answer.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25Now let's take a look through the rest of these.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27The political activist and actress is...
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- Jane Fonda.- Jane Fonda. Yup.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31She would have scored 30 points.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33The frontierswoman, you'll know the name -
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Calamity Jane.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Would have scored you 25.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40The English actress and cake maker who famously dated Paul McCartney...
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Asher.- Jane Asher, yeah. Very much the Mary Berry of her day.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45She would have scored you 35.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48And the creator of The Twilight Zone was Rod Serling.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50That's the best answer up there, five points for that.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53Thanks very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.
0:10:53 > 0:10:54Let's take a look at those scores.
0:10:54 > 0:10:5813, Stephen. As I said, the best score of that pass, so well done.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00That puts you and Kurt in a nice strong position.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Then up to 36, where we find Liz and Paul.
0:11:02 > 0:11:0750, Ellie and Carroll, and then up to 100, Sarah and David.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10So, yes, David, bit of a mountain to climb,
0:11:10 > 0:11:12but who knows? Maybe you can do it. Best of luck with that.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15We're going to come back down the line.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:11:18 > 0:11:22OK, let's put seven more Rods, Janes and Freddies up on the board,
0:11:22 > 0:11:24and here they come. We've got:
0:11:52 > 0:11:54I'll read those all one last time.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25OK, there we are. Seven more Rods,
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Janes and Freddies for you to have a crack at.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31Now then, Kurt, welcome back to the show. Good to have you here.
0:12:31 > 0:12:32Remind us what you do.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34I work for Hull International Business School
0:12:34 > 0:12:35as a programme manager.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38OK, and in your spare time, what do you get up to?
0:12:38 > 0:12:41As well as the sports with Stephen, I play football,
0:12:41 > 0:12:44golf, cricket in the summer
0:12:44 > 0:12:47- and I'm a keen runner as well.- OK.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49This board of Rods, Janes and Freddies -
0:12:49 > 0:12:51- it's a nice sort of hotchpotch there.- Yep.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53I'm hoping there are some in there that you'll know.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Some's probably too many. There's one on there that I know.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00I'm going to jump all over the Swedish footballer - not literally -
0:13:00 > 0:13:04who played for Arsenal from '98 to 2007, and go with Freddie Ljungberg.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Freddie Ljungberg, you are going to say.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Now the high scorers are David and Sarah on 100. You're on 13.
0:13:09 > 0:13:1286 or less sees you into the next round.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16Let's see if Freddie Ljungberg is correct. There's your red line.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Absolutely right. Through you go.
0:13:24 > 0:13:2617.
0:13:26 > 0:13:27APPLAUSE
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Very good, low scoring. Takes your total up to 30.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- Still the lowest score. - Yeah, very well played. Nicely done.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Still a much-loved by British football fans.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Freddie Ljungberg is part of the Invincibles team -
0:13:38 > 0:13:40we didn't lose a game across a whole season.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Also won the FA Cup three times.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Thanks very much, Richard.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47Now then, David. David, welcome back.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Remind us what you do, David.
0:13:49 > 0:13:53I am an administrator for Exeter University's Tennis Centre.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55A tennis centre administrator who loathes tennis?
0:13:55 > 0:13:59- I don't loathe it, I'm just not very good at tennis.- I see.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02- I don't really play. - Do you not use the courts then?
0:14:02 > 0:14:05Oh, yeah, I use the courts. I have a bit of a knock and...
0:14:05 > 0:14:06Have you got better?
0:14:06 > 0:14:09There wasn't really a benchmark to progress from, to be honest.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13- So, yeah, definitely better, just by observing.- OK, fair enough.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15- Now then, what about this board, David?- I don't like it.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17I'm not a fan of it.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20So I'm going to have to take a wild guess, I think.
0:14:20 > 0:14:25Let's go author of novels Northanger Abbey and Persuasion and,
0:14:25 > 0:14:28randomly, Jane Eyre.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31OK, let's see if that's right.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33No red line for you, as you are already the high scorers.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36But let's see if Jane Eyre wrote those novels.
0:14:36 > 0:14:37Let's see how many people said it.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43No. Literature hasn't been kind to you, it's fair to say.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47I'm afraid an incorrect answer there scores you 100 points
0:14:47 > 0:14:50and takes your total up to a dazzling 200.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Yeah, Sarah gave you a little look there.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57- The look that says "Jane Eyre didn't write Northanger Abbey."- Nope.
0:14:57 > 0:15:01- We'll discuss who did at the end of the pass.- OK, thanks very much.
0:15:01 > 0:15:05Now Paul. Welcome to the show. What do you do, Paul?
0:15:05 > 0:15:08I work in the publishing department at a well-known telephone
0:15:08 > 0:15:10directory advertising company.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Wow, that's fun.
0:15:11 > 0:15:17- How long have you done that for? - 1987, I started, so 27 years.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19And in your spare time, what do you get up to?
0:15:19 > 0:15:22Generally, I love travel but, generally, I tie it in with sport.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24I'm a massive sport fan,
0:15:24 > 0:15:27- so I'm not one to go and look in art galleries and museums.- OK.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29I look at where, say, my football team, Derby County,
0:15:29 > 0:15:32or playing or cricket team in the summer, Warwickshire,
0:15:32 > 0:15:34or horse racing, I've got into over the last few years.
0:15:34 > 0:15:38OK. Good stuff. Well, what about this board?
0:15:38 > 0:15:40I've got little rhymes for various things,
0:15:40 > 0:15:42as films are my weak subject.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45And for Heat Of The Night, I'm thinking rhymes with "tiger."
0:15:45 > 0:15:47I'm going to go Rod Steiger.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Rod Steiger.
0:15:50 > 0:15:51Where did tiger come from?
0:15:51 > 0:15:54I just have trigger words that help me remember things.
0:15:54 > 0:15:58- I think tiger, Steiger.- Excellent. - I don't know if it's worked.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01No, well, I don't know. Who knows? Rod Steiger. Sounds good to me.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03No red line for you, you're already through.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06Let's see how many of our 100 people said Rod Steiger.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Very good. It's a great answer.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Nice low score, too, 23. Very well done.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- APPLAUSE - 59, your total there, Paul.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20That's a terrific answer. Very good.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23A very good way of remembering as well. Yeah, Rod Steiger.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26Essentially, is all your knowledge things that rhyme with animals?
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Because, uh... You might have trouble later in the show, if so.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Yeah, because that would be troublesome, wouldn't it?
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Inspector Morse, horse.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38- That's how I remember it.- Yeah.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40- Anyone Deborah, zebra.- Exactly.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Thank you very much indeed.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45- OK, now then, Carroll.- Hello. - Welcome to the show.- Thank you.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Great to have you here. What do you do, Carroll?
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Well, sort of a bit of a mixture.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53I'm a farmer but I also run a business that looks after
0:16:53 > 0:16:55a particular breed of sheep in the UK,
0:16:55 > 0:16:58and also other sort of livestock industries.
0:16:58 > 0:16:59Tell us about the breed.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Right, it's a breed called Charollais.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05They originate in France and my family actually were
0:17:05 > 0:17:09responsible for bringing them from France, initially, into the UK.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- Do you milk Charollais?- No, no.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14They were very much bought over because we wanted leaner,
0:17:14 > 0:17:16healthier lamb meat in the UK.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19Excellent. Well, this board is all yours, Carroll.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22- Do you think you can give us some good answers?- No, I can't.
0:17:22 > 0:17:23I preferred the first one,
0:17:23 > 0:17:27and I'm very pleased someone else sort of, I think, faux pa-ed,
0:17:27 > 0:17:30because I think the author of the novels is Jane Austen.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31Jane Austen, says Carroll.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34You're through anyway, so it doesn't matter what you score,
0:17:34 > 0:17:36but let's see how many of our 100 people said Jane Austen.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Obviously, no red line for you.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41It's right.
0:17:45 > 0:17:4739.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49- APPLAUSE - Well done. 89 is your total.
0:17:49 > 0:17:50Well played, Carroll.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53A brilliant hanging your head in shame there from David!
0:17:53 > 0:17:57- That was...- That's who I was thinking of.- You almost reached the floor.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Yeah, Jane Eyre is a novel by Charlotte Bronte.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Jane Austen is the novelist, I'm afraid.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05But if you're going to go out, 200 is the way to do it, we always say.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07Let's fill in the rest of these.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09Now let's start with the entrepreneur.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13That is Freddie Laker. That would have scored you 38.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16He was a young lad when he was in Charlie And The Chocolate Factory.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18It was Freddie Highmore. Terrific actor.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20It would have scored you six.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23The New Zealand film-maker is Jane Campion.
0:18:23 > 0:18:24She would have scored you eight.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27And the Cleethorpes-born songwriter.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30- I actually know this, it's Rod Temperton.- Absolutely right.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33It's the best answer up there as well. He wrote all sorts of things.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Wrote Off The Wall, for Michael Jackson. He wrote for Donna Summer.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Wrote for Mariah Carey.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41- These were some of the biggest songs of the- '80s. Yep.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44Thanks very much indeed, Richard. So at the end of our first round,
0:18:44 > 0:18:47the pair heading home with a high score of 200, I'm afraid,
0:18:47 > 0:18:48is one of our returning pairs,
0:18:48 > 0:18:52David and Sarah. Oh, dear.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55- Sarah, you knew that one, didn't you?- If only I'd gone second.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58Well, listen, it's been great having you on both shows.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00- Thanks so much playing. - Thank you.- David and Sarah.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02APPLAUSE
0:19:02 > 0:19:06But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10APPLAUSE
0:19:10 > 0:19:13OK, so three pairs remain. Obviously, at the end of this round,
0:19:13 > 0:19:15we'll have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18Interestingly, there, Kurt and Stephen are low scorers.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21- He went with Freddies, both of you. Served you very well.- Yeah.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25Liz and Paul both went with Rods. Served you well.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Ellie and Carroll mixed it up a bit.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30We had a Freddie and a Jane.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33And you were our high scorers. Make of that what you will.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36But, anyway, it's a new round. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38Our category for Round Two is:
0:19:43 > 0:19:461990s Britpop. Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:19:46 > 0:19:48who's going to go second?
0:19:48 > 0:19:51And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56OK, and the question concerns:
0:19:59 > 0:20:01Albums released by Britpop bands. Richard.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04In a moment, Xander's going to show you four Britpop bands.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06We're looking for any album released by any of those bands that
0:20:06 > 0:20:10reached the UK Top 40 prior to March 2014, please.
0:20:10 > 0:20:11Just studio albums,
0:20:11 > 0:20:14so no live albums or greatest hits or anything like that.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Just any album by any of these four bands that have reached the UK
0:20:17 > 0:20:20- Top 40. Good luck. - OK, so as Richard just mentioned,
0:20:20 > 0:20:22we're going to put four bands on the board.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24They will stay up for the whole round.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27And we want any studio album released by any of these bands.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29OK, here are those four bands:
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Blur, Oasis, Pulp and Radiohead.
0:20:39 > 0:20:40Carroll.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42It is a blur, definitely!
0:20:43 > 0:20:45Let's have a guess.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Let's go Blur...
0:20:49 > 0:20:50Forgotten Way.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54- This is a pure guess, as you can see.- Forgotten Way.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Let's see if it's right.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59Let's see how many of our 100 people said Forgotten Way.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06- Nice guess, though. I like that.- They should have used it.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09Nice bit of poetry there. Forgotten Way, incorrect, I'm afraid.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12- It scores you 100 points. - Yeah, sorry, Carroll.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14The way to remember stuff is always to think of an animal
0:21:14 > 0:21:16and then what rhymes with it.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18For example, Charollais sheep,
0:21:18 > 0:21:20I always do for Meryl Streep.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22- That's how I remember her.- Very good.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24I'm going to use that from now on.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28- That's brilliant. I'm never going to forget.- It never fails.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30- There isn't a situation in which it doesn't work.- Yeah.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Brilliant. Thank you.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Now, Liz.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37Well, the animal I'm going for...
0:21:38 > 0:21:40..is ants.
0:21:40 > 0:21:41I'm going...
0:21:42 > 0:21:46Standing On The Shoulders of Giants - Oasis.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants. Let's see if that's right
0:21:48 > 0:21:51and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55It's absolutely right.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01That's a good answer. Down it goes. Still going down, six.
0:22:04 > 0:22:09See, there's no getting away with it. These animals really help.
0:22:09 > 0:22:15That was very coolly done. Very well played. Number one album from 2000.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Thanks, Rich. Now, Kurt.
0:22:17 > 0:22:22- Are we happy about this round? - I thought I'd be happier.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25I've got a fairly obvious one for Oasis.
0:22:25 > 0:22:30But I think - I hope a slightly better answer would be Hindu Times.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Hindu Times. Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see
0:22:33 > 0:22:35how many of our 100 people said Hindu Times.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44Oh, Kurt. Oh, I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45We will discover why in a second.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47But that scores you 100 points, I'm sorry.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Yeah, that's a single, Kurt.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53You'll know the album it's on, as well, but just a single, I'm afraid.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56We are halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58Only two scores to look at.
0:22:58 > 0:23:02One is 6 and that is Liz and Paul's score. Very well done.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06Carroll and Ellie, Kurt and Stephen tied on 100 there.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09Stephen and Ellie, it's between the pair of you.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11One of you will be leaving us at the end of this round, I think.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Best of luck with that.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Can the second players step up to the podium.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19OK, Stephen,
0:23:19 > 0:23:22we're looking for any studio album released by any of these bands.
0:23:22 > 0:23:27- You're the joint high-scorers on 100 so we need a low score from you.- OK.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30Much like Kurt, I thought I'd be better at this
0:23:30 > 0:23:32than I'm actually going to be.
0:23:32 > 0:23:37I'm going to take a bit of a punt and go for Pulp, Different Class.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Different Class, says Stephen.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41No red line for you as you're joint high-scorers.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Let's see how many of our 100 people said Different Class.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48Absolutely right.
0:23:53 > 0:23:546.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00Takes your total up to 106.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04Huge number one album from 1995. Had Common People on it, Disco 2000.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08That's what really kind of propelled them into the mainstream.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11Thanks, Rich. Now, Paul.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13My animal trick won't work for this one.
0:24:13 > 0:24:18I'm just so glad Oasis are on there, although I'm not a huge fan.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20I'm going to say Definitely, Maybe.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23Definitely, Maybe.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27OK. There you are on 6. The high score is 106, Stephen and Kurt.
0:24:27 > 0:24:3199 or less sees you through. Definitely, Maybe.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33How many people said that? There's your red line.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37You're through.
0:24:42 > 0:24:4314.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49Takes your total up to 20.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52Another number one album there from 1994.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56In 2006, NME readers voted it the Greatest Album Of All Time.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01The easiest way to remember the title is kangaroo baby - Definitely, Maybe.
0:25:01 > 0:25:06Thanks very much. Now, Ellie. This is where we have the real contest.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08OK, now...
0:25:08 > 0:25:11- How confident are you feeling? - Not very.
0:25:11 > 0:25:17I've got lots of songs playing in my head. They're not really helping me.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20I don't think anything I can think of is going to beat six, which is
0:25:20 > 0:25:25sad. I'm just going to have to go What's The Story Morning Glory?
0:25:25 > 0:25:29What's The Story Morning Glory? says Ellie. Here's your red line.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31It's quite low.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34Let's see how many of our 100 people said What's The Story Morning Glory?
0:25:37 > 0:25:38It's right.
0:25:43 > 0:25:44Oh, 24!
0:25:45 > 0:25:49Takes your total up to 124.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Yeah, unlucky. Good answer, though. Another number one album.
0:25:52 > 0:25:56Won the Brit Award for the Best Album Of The Last 30 years in 2010.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59I'll go Blur first. There's some very low answers.
0:25:59 > 0:26:03You'd have got 1 point for 13, Think Tank, Leisure.
0:26:03 > 0:26:053 points for The Great Escape. 7 for Modern Life is Rubbish.
0:26:05 > 0:26:0811 for Blur, and the biggest score for any of these bands -
0:26:08 > 0:26:1030 for Park Life.
0:26:10 > 0:26:14There is a pointless answer for Oasis and that is Dig Out Your Soul.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17Would have been pointless. Well done if you said that.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20You would have got 2 points for Don't Believe The truth.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22The Hindu Times is from Heathen Chemistry
0:26:22 > 0:26:24and that would have scored you 2 points.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27You'd have got 6 points for Be Here Now. We've heard the rest of those.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Pulp - We Love Life would have scored 2. His And Hers, 3.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34This is Hardcore would have scored 6. And Radiohead, a few low scorers -
0:26:34 > 0:26:37Hail To The Thief would have scored 2.
0:26:37 > 0:26:403 for Amnesiac, 5 for Pablo Honey, The King Of Limbs and Kid A.
0:26:40 > 0:26:456 for In rainbows, 10 for The Bends and 16 for OK Computer.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Thanks, Richard. At the end of our second round, the pair heading home
0:26:48 > 0:26:51with a score of 125, Ellie and Carroll, it is you.
0:26:51 > 0:26:55Oh, dear, that wasn't a good round for you, Carroll.
0:26:55 > 0:27:00You could have gone for Blur by Blur. There's a tip for the future.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03- Just repeat the artist, OK. - Always worth a punt.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06We'll see you again next time, we'll look forward to that.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09In the meantime, thanks very much for playing, Ellie and Carroll.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15For Liz and Paul, Kurt and Stephen, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:27:20 > 0:27:23Congratulations, Liz and Paul, Kurt and Stephen,
0:27:23 > 0:27:25you are now one step closer to the final and a chance
0:27:25 > 0:27:28to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at £1,000.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32This is the point where we decide who gets to play for that money.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34To do that, you are now going to go head-to-head.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37You're now allowed to confer before you give your answers.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41First pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45So, Liz and Paul, first appearance on the show
0:27:45 > 0:27:51and here you are. You are our polar bear, golden pair. There you are.
0:27:51 > 0:27:56Very well done. Kurt and Stephen, last time, Round One.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Early exit. This time,
0:27:58 > 0:28:00there we are, head-to-head.
0:28:00 > 0:28:05I think anything could happen. Woodchuck, best of luck.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07OK, let's play the head-to-head.
0:28:12 > 0:28:16OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:28:19 > 0:28:20Airports Named After Famous Figures.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22We're going to show you five locations where
0:28:22 > 0:28:25they have airports named after famous people.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28We'd like you to tell us the name of the famous person, please. Good luck.
0:28:28 > 0:28:31OK, let's reveal our five airport locations and here they come.
0:28:31 > 0:28:32We have got...
0:28:52 > 0:28:56OK, there we are five airports named after famous people.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59Liz and Paul, you've been our lowest scorers throughout the show
0:28:59 > 0:29:00so you will go first.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05We're going to say...
0:29:07 > 0:29:10..that B...
0:29:10 > 0:29:13is George Best International Airport, Belfast.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16OK, George Best you're saying for B.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19Kurt and Stephen, the board's all yours.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23E is John Lennon.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27A, Charles de Gaulle.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29THEY WHISPER
0:29:32 > 0:29:34OK, yeah, go for it.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37Liverpool, John Lennon.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40OK, you're saying E, John Lennon. We have George best versus John Lennon.
0:29:40 > 0:29:45Liz and Paul said George Best for B. Let's see if that's right
0:29:45 > 0:29:47and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:29:50 > 0:29:51It's absolutely right.
0:29:56 > 0:29:5717.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03That's what you've got to beat, Kurt and Stephen - 17.
0:30:03 > 0:30:07Let's see if you're going to do it with John Lennon for E.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09How many people said that?
0:30:12 > 0:30:15It's right.
0:30:15 > 0:30:1655, though.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22Very well done, Liz and Paul. After one question you are up 1-0.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25Yes, George Best, Belfast City Airport, named after George Best.
0:30:33 > 0:30:37- Got to think of a famous Macedonian for C.- Mother Teresa?- It's not.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41Very similar people in lots of ways(!)
0:30:41 > 0:30:44LAUGHTER
0:30:44 > 0:30:46And the best answer...
0:30:46 > 0:30:50It's in Granada and it's named after the Spanish poet and playwright...
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Very well done if you said that, pointless answer.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58Thanks very much. OK, here comes your second question. Kurt
0:30:58 > 0:31:00and Stephen, you get to answer it first but you have to win it
0:31:00 > 0:31:03to stay in the game. So best of luck. It concerns...
0:31:05 > 0:31:07Horse Racing. Richard.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10Simply five clues to facts about the sport of horse racing.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12Which is the most obscure answer?
0:31:12 > 0:31:16OK, thanks very much. Let's reveal our five clues, and here they come.
0:31:38 > 0:31:39I'll read all of those one last time.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04Kurt and Stephen, you will go first.
0:32:04 > 0:32:07THEY WHISPER
0:32:16 > 0:32:20We're clueless. Completely and utterly clueless in every sense.
0:32:20 > 0:32:24We're going to go for the first jump jockey to achieve 4,000 wins
0:32:24 > 0:32:27and hope AP McCoy.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30AP McCoy say Kurt and Stephen.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32Now, Liz and Paul, the board is all yours.
0:32:32 > 0:32:36Paul, I remember you saying you've got a burgeoning interest
0:32:36 > 0:32:40- in horse racing.- I must admit, my heart leapt when I saw this one.
0:32:40 > 0:32:44The first one is a furlong. McCoy's right. Red Rum.
0:32:44 > 0:32:48Number four I should know cos I was there. I think it was about 2009...
0:32:48 > 0:32:50But we're going to play the last one,
0:32:50 > 0:32:53cos the 14 wins is the clue, and I'm going to say Frankel.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55Frankel.
0:32:55 > 0:33:00So we have AP McCoy versus Frankel. Kurt and Stephen said AP McCoy.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:33:05 > 0:33:06It is right.
0:33:11 > 0:33:12Good answer, 16.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Meanwhile, Liz and Paul have gone for Frankel,
0:33:19 > 0:33:22the horse retired in 2012 with an unbeaten 14 wins.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Let's see if Frankel's right and how many people said it.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30It is right, of course.
0:33:30 > 0:33:33Is that going to beat AP McCoy?
0:33:33 > 0:33:37Yes, it is. Look at that - 6 for Frankel. Very well done indeed.
0:33:40 > 0:33:41Which means, Liz and Paul,
0:33:41 > 0:33:45after only two questions you are straight through to the final, 2-0.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48Yeah, great answer, great horse. I met Frankel.
0:33:48 > 0:33:54It was amazing. Cost £125,000 if you want his services as stud.
0:33:54 > 0:33:59He made £15 million in stud fees in his first year.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02He can be doing that for 10, 15, 20 years if he wants to.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05And why wouldn't he want to?
0:34:05 > 0:34:09- It's quite a set up he had there. - Yeah.- Very impressive.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12Now, you're right about the unit of measurement.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22If you had to guess the year you would have gone for...?
0:34:22 > 0:34:23I'll say 2009.
0:34:23 > 0:34:272008. Lucky you went for Frankel. Would have scored you 2 points,
0:34:27 > 0:34:30though, would have been the best answer on the board.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33- Well done if you got most of those at home.- Thanks, Richard.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36So the pair leaving us, I'm afraid, it's Kurt and Stephen.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38It's curtains for Kurt and Stephen.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42You've done so much better this time. Round One last time.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45Great performance this time. Nothing wrong with either of your answers.
0:34:45 > 0:34:48I'm so sorry. You came up against Liz and Paul who just found
0:34:48 > 0:34:50their form in this head-to-head.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52We've loved having you on the show, it's been great.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54Thanks so much for playing, Kurt and Stephen.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57APPLAUSE
0:34:57 > 0:35:00For Liz and Paul it's now time for our Pointless Final.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06Congratulations, Liz and Paul, you've seen off all the competition
0:35:06 > 0:35:08and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:17 > 0:35:18and it stands at...
0:35:21 > 0:35:23Well, what a show.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26It's been fantastic and a 2-0 win in the head-to-head,
0:35:26 > 0:35:28so really not to be sniffed at.
0:35:28 > 0:35:32Anything you'd particularly like to see come up in this last round?
0:35:32 > 0:35:35I'm a bit worried about sport. I want sport desperately. We just had
0:35:35 > 0:35:38a sport one there so I got a horrible feeling that won't come up.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40- But it's fallen very nicely for you, hasn't it?- That's the trouble.
0:35:40 > 0:35:44- We've had our luck, I think. - We shall see.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46You get to choose your category for the last round
0:35:46 > 0:35:49and your four choices for today are...
0:36:00 > 0:36:02It's Moons Of The Solar System, isn't it?
0:36:02 > 0:36:04We've just got to take Classic FA Cup Finals
0:36:04 > 0:36:06and hope 1946 Derby County comes up.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09LAUGHTER
0:36:09 > 0:36:11OK, Classic FA Cup Finals it is.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14Unfortunately, we said "classic" FA Cup finals...
0:36:14 > 0:36:16LAUGHTER
0:36:16 > 0:36:19Yeah, not one of my greatest disguises for a sport question.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22We are looking for the name of anybody who played in
0:36:22 > 0:36:25any of the following Cup Finals.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28West Ham 3-2 Preston in 1964.
0:36:28 > 0:36:32We're looking for anybody who played in the Coventry City 3-2 Spurs
0:36:32 > 0:36:34final of 1987.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36And we're looking for anyone who played in the 3-3 draw
0:36:36 > 0:36:40between Liverpool and West Ham in 2006 that Liverpool won on penalties.
0:36:40 > 0:36:46So anyone who played at any point in the '64, '87 or 2006 FA Cup Final.
0:36:46 > 0:36:47Very best of luck.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50OK, you've got up to one minute to come up three answers
0:36:50 > 0:36:53and all you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those answers
0:36:53 > 0:36:56- to be pointless. Are you ready?- Yep.
0:36:56 > 0:37:01OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock. Your time starts now.
0:37:01 > 0:37:031964 was West Ham versus Preston.
0:37:03 > 0:37:06Howard Kendall became the youngest player to play in a Cup Final
0:37:06 > 0:37:10so we got to say him. I don't know any of the Preston Team.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13John Sissons might have played for West Ham.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15In fact, I might go for him.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18- Somebody who's called Ken somebody...- Ken...
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Allen... Allen...
0:37:20 > 0:37:24- Steve Ogrizovic in goals, was he in goals?- Ogrizovic was in '87, yeah.
0:37:24 > 0:37:25Dave Hampshire - Steve Hampshire.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28Dave Bennett. Dave Bennett put the cross in.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31Steve Lomas played in 2006...
0:37:31 > 0:37:33I would say Dave Bennett got to be Coventry.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36- He put the cross in that Hampshire scored from.- Yeah, yeah.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39- '64 we're going to have Kendall. - Yeah.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41And was it Ronnie Boyce? Would he have been there?
0:37:41 > 0:37:44In fact, they had loads of players beginning with S!
0:37:44 > 0:37:47West Ham had loads of players... No, B! It was B. They had loads of B's!
0:37:47 > 0:37:49I'm sure they had a lot of B's!
0:37:49 > 0:37:52- It was either B or S. - Ten seconds left.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54Ronnie Boyce. I'm going to go Ronnie Boyce.
0:37:54 > 0:37:58- I like it, it's got a nice ring to it.- Ronnie Boyce...- Dave Bennett.
0:37:58 > 0:38:02- ..Syril Snake. - "Syril Snake!"
0:38:02 > 0:38:03OK, your time is now up.
0:38:03 > 0:38:08I now need... These animals have just been plaguing you.
0:38:08 > 0:38:11We've got bees, we've got snake, we've got everything.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14So, what are those three answers going to be?
0:38:14 > 0:38:19- The 1964 Final, we will go Howard Kendall.- Howard Kendall.
0:38:19 > 0:38:22I know West Ham had a lot of players beginning with the letter B,
0:38:22 > 0:38:24so - animal theme, bees -
0:38:24 > 0:38:29- we'll go Ronnie Boyce.- Ronnie Boyce. Both from '64.- Yeah.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32And in '87, I recall Dave Bennett, a bloke from Coventry, put the cross
0:38:32 > 0:38:35in and the winning goal was scored from. So we'll say Dave Bennett.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37Dave Bennett, another B, good.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40Of those three which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:40 > 0:38:43I think because Howard Kendall was the youngest player in a final
0:38:43 > 0:38:44it might be remembered.
0:38:44 > 0:38:47So we'll put that one... Sorry, that will go first.
0:38:47 > 0:38:51OK, Howard Kendall goes first. Who shall we put last?
0:38:51 > 0:38:53We'll stick Dave Bennett last cos we're certain he's right.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56I'm not sure Boyce played in the final.
0:38:56 > 0:39:00OK, let's pop those up on the board in that order, and here they are.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07Very best of luck. Three cracking answers up there on the board.
0:39:07 > 0:39:11Now, we've got to hope at least one of those is pointless.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14You will win thereby £1,000.
0:39:14 > 0:39:18Let's say you do, what would you do with it, Liz?
0:39:18 > 0:39:23Well, seeing as I've abandoned my children to be here with you -
0:39:23 > 0:39:25very glad to be so -
0:39:25 > 0:39:29I'd have to do something for them. Buy something for them.
0:39:29 > 0:39:30Take the somewhere.
0:39:30 > 0:39:34- OK. Paul, how about you? - With my £750 half share...
0:39:34 > 0:39:36LAUGHTER
0:39:36 > 0:39:39..all the lads watching I'll take them racing at Newbury,
0:39:39 > 0:39:42- have a few drinks and blow it on the horses.- OK. Very best of luck.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Howard Kendall was your first answer,
0:39:44 > 0:39:47the one you thought was probably least likely to be pointless.
0:39:47 > 0:39:49But only one of these has to be pointless
0:39:49 > 0:39:53for you to win that jackpot. Howard Kendall, is it right,
0:39:53 > 0:39:59how many named Howard Kendall as a player in the 1964 FA Cup Final?
0:40:02 > 0:40:04It's right.
0:40:04 > 0:40:08Now, if this goes down to zero, you leave with £1,000.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10Howard Kendall now takes us down through the teens,
0:40:10 > 0:40:12into single figures.
0:40:12 > 0:40:14You've done it! First one! Good Lord!
0:40:17 > 0:40:21- Fantastic.- Cheers.- Very, very good work. That's brilliant.
0:40:23 > 0:40:24Very well done indeed.
0:40:28 > 0:40:29Congratulations.
0:40:29 > 0:40:32Howard Kendall, your first answer, was a pointless answer,
0:40:32 > 0:40:36which means you go home with our jackpot of £1,000. Brilliant.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44Yeah, that's some seriously impressive knowledge.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47Very well played. He was the youngest player at the time
0:40:47 > 0:40:51to be in a cup final until Paul Allen in 1980. Terrific answer.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54Your second answer, Ronnie Boyce, he scored the winning goal in that final
0:40:54 > 0:40:56but he was still a pointless answer.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59APPLAUSE
0:41:02 > 0:41:04And Dave Bennett, he provided the cross.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06It was Keith Houchen was the goal scorer.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09But Dave Bennett would have scored you 2 points.
0:41:09 > 0:41:12What are you thinking(?) I mean, come on(!)
0:41:12 > 0:41:13LAUGHTER
0:41:13 > 0:41:16Any sort of team would hand the money back, in my opinion...
0:41:16 > 0:41:17No, it's terrifically done.
0:41:17 > 0:41:20Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers.
0:41:24 > 0:41:27Two Preston North End players there - Doug Holden, Howard Kendall.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29A couple of B's there for West Ham.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32John Bond, who later went on to become a successful manager
0:41:32 > 0:41:36and Ronnie Boyce. You were right, an awful lot of B's in that team.
0:41:36 > 0:41:40There were seven. There was Boyce, but there's also Burkett, Bovington,
0:41:40 > 0:41:44Byrne, Brown and Brabrook. And all of those were pointless answers.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46So very well done if you said that.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49You also wondered if there were some S's in the team. There's only one.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51That was John Sissons, who you also mentioned
0:41:51 > 0:41:53and he was a pointless answer.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56So you could have given us three pointless answers.
0:41:56 > 0:41:59You did quite well, though. Don't worry.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02Let's take a look at the '87 Cup Final.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04Chris Hughton went on to be Norwich manager.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11A couple of other names from that final - Lloyd McGrath.
0:42:11 > 0:42:14Paul Allen - he went on to beat Howard Kendall's record.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16He was a pointless answer in that final as well.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25John Arne Riise went on to play for the mighty Fulham.
0:42:28 > 0:42:32A couple of other answers - Bobby Zamora Anton Ferdinand,
0:42:32 > 0:42:33Christian Dailly, Danny Gabbidon,
0:42:33 > 0:42:36Dietmar Hamann, Fernando Morientes,
0:42:36 > 0:42:38Harry Kewell,
0:42:38 > 0:42:40Matthew Etherington, Nigel Reo-Coker, Shaka Hislop.
0:42:40 > 0:42:43Lots of pointless answers out there.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45You can't do much better than 0, 0, 2.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48Terrifically well played. Sorry it's only for £1,000.
0:42:48 > 0:42:52- But, yeah, what a performance. - Thanks, Richard.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54Thanks once again to our winning players, Liz and Paul,
0:42:54 > 0:42:58who go away with £1,000. Brilliant.
0:43:01 > 0:43:04Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge
0:43:04 > 0:43:08- to the test on Pointless. It's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10..and goodbye from me, goodbye.
0:43:10 > 0:43:13APPLAUSE
