0:00:20 > 0:00:22Thank you. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Welcome to Pointless, the show where the more obscure your knowledge,
0:00:25 > 0:00:28the better your chances of winning. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30APPLAUSE
0:00:33 > 0:00:35- And couple number one. - Hello, I'm Barbara.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38This is my very good friend, Judith. And we've come up from Sussex today.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41- Couple number two. - Hello, my name is Mathew.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43- This is my little brother, Alex. - Hello.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45We're from South Wales, Cwmbran.
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Couple number three.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Hello, I'm Harriet. This is my dad, David.
0:00:49 > 0:00:50And we're from Hemel Hempstead.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53- And couple number four. - Hello, I'm Scooter
0:00:53 > 0:00:55and this is my good friend, Tas, and we're from Cambridgeshire.
0:00:55 > 0:01:00- And these are today's contestants. - APPLAUSE
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Thanks very much. We'll get to know more about each of you
0:01:02 > 0:01:04as the show goes along.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09An intellect more frightening than Poltergeist 3.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:11 > 0:01:16Hiya. Hi, everybody. APPLAUSE
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- Hello there.- Hello there! - Looking forward to today's show?
0:01:19 > 0:01:22I am, particularly after that. That was a lively bunch, wasn't it?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25It was. There appears to be somebody called "Scooter" on the show.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- I spotted that. - I spotted that as well.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29I don't know if that's his real name.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31Also he said it in quite a cool accent too,
0:01:31 > 0:01:33so literally can't wait to get to podium four.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Only one pair coming back from the last show.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38That's Alex and Mathew. They were dressed the same last time.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40They've lost their bottle this time, haven't they?
0:01:40 > 0:01:44- Completely stitched me up this time. - They were dressed identically.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Mathew joined the 200 club all by himself.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50- Yes.- Two answers, 100 points in both.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52So a lot of pressure on you this time.
0:01:52 > 0:01:57- But question one today is interesting.- OK.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00I would say interesting but tricky.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03- Interesting but tricky. OK, well. - That's not encouraging, is it?- No.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05It's not the sort of thing I should say.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08- Round One, a breeze today.- Lovely.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11Well, thank you very much. Looking forward to it.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13All our questions have been asked to 100 people before the show.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Today's contestants are looking for a pointless answer,
0:02:16 > 0:02:18an answer that none of our 100 people gave.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Find one and we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24Zizzy and Suzanne didn't win the jackpot last time,
0:02:24 > 0:02:26so we add another £1,000 to that,
0:02:26 > 0:02:28so today's jackpot starts off at £3,000.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30APPLAUSE
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41All you have to remember is that the pair with the highest score
0:02:41 > 0:02:43at the end of each round will be eliminated,
0:02:43 > 0:02:46so do everything you can to make sure that is not you.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50Our first category today is...
0:02:50 > 0:02:52So far, so good. The USA.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second?
0:02:56 > 0:02:58And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:03:11 > 0:03:14..as they could. Largest US cities in each state, Richard.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Yeah, we're looking for the name of the largest city
0:03:17 > 0:03:19in any of the 50 US states, please.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20So the largest city in terms of population
0:03:20 > 0:03:24according to the 2010 US census. Very best of luck.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Thanks very much. So this, I might suggest,
0:03:27 > 0:03:30is one that you might be glad you're on the first podium for.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Probably will be.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34- Judith, a warm welcome.- Thank you.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36You've come here from Sussex.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38What do you get up to in Sussex, Judith?
0:03:38 > 0:03:42I do a bit of writing. I do a bit of acting. Yes.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43What sort of writing do you do?
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Oh, just short stories at the moment.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48- I'm working up to a novel, but... - OK. Are you doing a course on that
0:03:48 > 0:03:51or is this something you've just embarked on, on your own?
0:03:51 > 0:03:53No, I joined a writers' workshop.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- So each week we get a homework. - Do you know, my mum's done that.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Both my parents have done that. They go along together
0:03:59 > 0:04:00and the only difference is
0:04:00 > 0:04:02that my mother now just criticises everything.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05If I ask her to read something, I say, "Did you enjoy that?"
0:04:05 > 0:04:08She'll read it and go, "Well, I wasn't sure about the imagery..."
0:04:08 > 0:04:11And you think, "Oh... Is that the only fruit of this course?"
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Well, as an English teacher of 30 years standing, I do that anyway.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17So this is a chance for me to put myself in the position
0:04:17 > 0:04:19- that my pupils have been in. - Yeah, the tables turned.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21And take my homework in each week
0:04:21 > 0:04:23and read it out with some trepidation.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25- But they're nice, encouraging? - Oh, they are, yes.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- Nurturing.- We have a good laugh. - Good.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- OK, talking of having a good laugh...- My answer.
0:04:30 > 0:04:34- Yes, what are you going to go for? - Erm, I think I shall probably go,
0:04:34 > 0:04:36as it's the first one that's popped into my head,
0:04:36 > 0:04:40- Sacramento, California.- Sacramento. Let's see if that's right,
0:04:40 > 0:04:43- or let's see if that's just some creative writing.- Oh, dear.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Ooh, no. I'm sorry, Judith.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51I'm afraid - that, again, also gutsy -
0:04:51 > 0:04:53but I'm afraid, in this case, incorrect.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56- Scores you the maximum of 100 points. Sorry.- Sorry, Barbara.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Sorry, Judith. It is the state capital of California, Sacramento,
0:04:59 > 0:05:02but very much not the largest city in California, I'm afraid.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04OK. I have a feeling you'll be joined
0:05:04 > 0:05:07by a fair few others up there on 100.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10- I hope so.- But we shall see. Alex, welcome back.- Thank you.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Remind us what happened last time.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14- I brought the wrong person with me. - LAUGHTER
0:05:14 > 0:05:17And he scored a lot of points.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- It was Round Two, wasn't it?- Yeah.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22That 200 points would have been good in any other quiz show.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25- I know.- You've changed the format, and to be honest,
0:05:25 > 0:05:27- it's quite confusing. - LAUGHTER
0:05:27 > 0:05:29I'm not taking blame for that.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33- OK. Alex, remind us what you do. - Electrical fitter.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37- I work for a transmission company. - OK. Now, Alex, there we are.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40We've already had one 100. Have you got a confident answer?
0:05:40 > 0:05:43I've got a confident one, but it's going to be pretty high.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45- And I literally can't think of anything else.- OK.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49- New York in New York. - New York and New York.
0:05:49 > 0:05:50Let's see if that's right and
0:05:50 > 0:05:52let's see how many of our 100 people said New York.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57It's right.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00- 79, but it's right. - APPLAUSE
0:06:00 > 0:06:01Nothing wrong with that.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Yeah, in fact the biggest population of any US city, New York.
0:06:06 > 0:06:098.1 million people in the last census.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11- David. Welcome.- Hello.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15- A warm welcome to you. What do you do, David?- I'm a bank manager
0:06:15 > 0:06:19working in West London, running a branch of an international bank.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Excellent. And what do you get up to when you're not doing that?
0:06:22 > 0:06:26I travel the world, including US cities, running marathons.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Do you? Marathons.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- How many marathons have you run? - Just over 50 now.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33So I've done half of those in England
0:06:33 > 0:06:36and half of those in countries around the world.
0:06:36 > 0:06:3950 marathons?! It's probably time you got on to Guinness.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42I mean, not the drink. The people who run the...
0:06:42 > 0:06:44The record book. Anyway, David.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47I think you might have a good answer on the back of this running.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50I will go for one of the cities that I have run in.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Seattle for Washington State.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Seattle. Seattle. Let's see if that's right
0:06:54 > 0:06:56and how many of our 100 people said Seattle.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Absolutely right. 79 is our low score.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02You tear past that.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05Still running.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08APPLAUSE
0:07:09 > 0:07:1123 for Seattle.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16Well played, David. Very good answer. 600,000 people in Seattle.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Some of us think of these American cities as huge. They're not that...
0:07:19 > 0:07:20- 600,000?- Yeah.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22- That's weeny. - It is quite weeny, isn't it?
0:07:22 > 0:07:25I just think of Frasier basically and all those tall buildings.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27And also Microsoft there as well
0:07:27 > 0:07:29and the first ever Starbucks was Seattle in 1971.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Whatever happened to them?
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- Yeah.- So it punches above its weight, I would say.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Thanks very much. Scooter. Aha, Scooter. Welcome.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Is that your actual name, Scooter?
0:07:41 > 0:07:43It is not. No, my real name is Scott,
0:07:43 > 0:07:45but my best friend growing up gave me this nickname
0:07:45 > 0:07:48because he felt I bore a striking resemblance
0:07:48 > 0:07:49to Scooter from The Muppets.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Are you seeing Scooter from The Muppets there?
0:07:51 > 0:07:55Well, given that I can see both of Tas' hands, no.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57LAUGHTER
0:07:57 > 0:07:59I see what you're saying there.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04OK. Now, Scooter, what are you going to go for?
0:08:04 > 0:08:08Um, well, I think I'm going to play it a bit safer
0:08:08 > 0:08:10and say Portland, Oregon.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12OK. Portland, let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:08:12 > 0:08:15let's see how many of our 100 people said Portland.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19It's right.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Well, 23's our low score. You've passed that.
0:08:25 > 0:08:275 for Portland. Very well done indeed.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Yeah, 580,000 people in Portland.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38- Have you been to Portland, Scooter? - I have not, no.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41It's a beautiful city. It's much-loved.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44It's got quite a kind of...
0:08:44 > 0:08:46a bohemian air, Portland.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48Hmm. Well, there we are. We're halfway though the round.
0:08:48 > 0:08:515 was the best score of that pass. Very well done, Scooter and Tas,
0:08:51 > 0:08:53looking pretty strong at this stage.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Then up to 23 where we find David and Harriet. 79, Alex and Mathew.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59100, Judith and Barbara.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Quite nicely stepped that, nice even steps there.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05Barbara, anything can happen in the next pass is all I'm saying.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08What we need from you is a low score.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09Good luck with that.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:09:16 > 0:09:18OK, we are looking for any US city
0:09:18 > 0:09:21which by population is the largest in its state.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24- Tas, welcome.- Hello.- Good to have you here. What do you do, Tas?
0:09:24 > 0:09:28I'm a technical writer for a modular building firm.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Wow. That's sort of computer writing, then?
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Technical writing, so when a building gets handed over,
0:09:33 > 0:09:35I put all the manuals together.
0:09:35 > 0:09:36Oh, I see. I see.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39What do you like getting up to in your spare time?
0:09:39 > 0:09:42Though I'm not very good at it, I do enjoy cycling.
0:09:42 > 0:09:43I do a lot of cycling.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47- Proper racing cycling?- No. I'm very much at the end of it.- Right, OK.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51- More just the fun of doing the thing with company.- Yes.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54So this year, me and my boyfriend are going to cycle
0:09:54 > 0:09:57- part of the Danube river for a holiday.- Fabulous.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00- From Vienna to Budapest.- I can immediately see a problem with that.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04Oh, not IN the river. Sorry. Alongside.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07- Alongside the river. - That's what I was thinking.- OK.
0:10:07 > 0:10:12Just you've sometimes...you've got to think ahead. That's the...
0:10:12 > 0:10:16- Planning is everything. - The Danube has a beautiful tow path.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19That is like the time I was trying to canoe the M1
0:10:19 > 0:10:21and it just... LAUGHTER
0:10:21 > 0:10:24To be fair, you got as far as Watford, which wasn't bad.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Yeah, wasn't too bad.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29OK, now, Tas. What are you going to go for? There you are on 5.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33The high-scorers, Barbara and Judith on 100. 94 or less sees you though.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36- I know.- It just has to be right, that's all.- Yes.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38So, I have an answer.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41I think I'm going to go with Atlanta.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Atlanta.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many said it.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50There is your red line. Get below that red line - lovely and high -
0:10:50 > 0:10:53with Atlanta and you are in Round Two.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58It's right and you're through. Good work, Tas.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Well, Scooter scored 5.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05- Atlanta scores 14. - APPLAUSE
0:11:07 > 0:11:0914 for you, Tas. Second-lowest score of the round so far.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12- 19 your total, well done. - Very well played, Tas.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Terrific work on that last podium, both of you.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Yes, the biggest city in Georgia.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Thank you, Richard. Now, Harriet. Welcome, welcome.
0:11:19 > 0:11:20What do you do, Harriet?
0:11:20 > 0:11:23I work in the marketing team for an online beauty retailer,
0:11:23 > 0:11:27so selling hair care, skincare, make-up, that kind of thing.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30That's a job that involves taking quite a lot of samples back home.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32- It does.- To test them out. I understand.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35- Listen, I'm not...- Of course. - Nothing underhand here.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39- Well, fun. What a nice thing to do. You enjoy it?- Yeah, I do, actually.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42It is really good fun and, like you said, there's perks.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- Wins you lots of friends as well. - Yep, it does.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48- My mum being the main one. - There you go. Exactly.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51Well, there you are on 23. How confident are you feeling?
0:11:51 > 0:11:54This is actually a good subject for me, I hope.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57It was part of my degree, was American Studies.
0:11:57 > 0:12:01So, let's hope I don't... make a fool of myself.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03You are confessing an awful lot of things here!
0:12:03 > 0:12:06In advance of giving your answer, but, yeah, fingers crossed.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10So I have two answers and I think I'm going to go
0:12:10 > 0:12:12for St Louis in Missouri.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14St Louis, says Harriet.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18OK, well, the high-scorers remain Barbara and Judith on 100.
0:12:18 > 0:12:2076 or less sees you through.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23There's your red line. Let's see if St Louis can get you below it.
0:12:26 > 0:12:27Oh, no!
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- Harriet.- Oops.- 123 is your total.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35I'm afraid that, for some reason, is incorrect.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Yeah, I'm really, really sorry.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39St LEWIS, I'm going to go right ahead and call it like an American,
0:12:39 > 0:12:42it is in Missouri, but not the biggest city there, I'm afraid.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46OK. Now then, Mathew.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50- Mathew, welcome back. Good bow tie, well done.- Cheers.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52- You stuck with the plan.- Yeah.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Made me look like a right turnip here.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56- LAUGHTER - A turnip in a bow tie, though.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59I'm just glad I didn't wear the top hat, that's the thing.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01- Yeah, we did expect a top hat. - Yeah, we did.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03We couldn't find any, so I was going to wear the lampshades
0:13:03 > 0:13:07from the hotel and they wouldn't let me take them.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10- Mathew, remind us what you do. - An engineering manager.
0:13:10 > 0:13:14That's right. And as we discovered last time, you work out.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18- Yeah.- Yes. What else do you do? What are your other hobbies?
0:13:18 > 0:13:21I pretty much live in work. I hardly see my missus, which...
0:13:21 > 0:13:24I don't know if she actually finds that better.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Keeps our relationship stronger that I'm not about the house more.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30Actually earning money for her shoes.
0:13:30 > 0:13:31LAUGHTER
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- And your bow ties, obviously. - And bow ties.- Now then, Mathew.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36There you are on 79. The high-scorers now,
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Harriet and David on 123.
0:13:38 > 0:13:4143 or less is what you require.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43How's your reasoning going at this stage?
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Well, I'm thinking capital cities, but that might not necessarily be...
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Yeah, well, as we've seen, not always.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52I've got two in mind. But I'm going to go for a safe bet
0:13:52 > 0:13:55and I'm going to say Detroit, Illinois.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58OK, Detroit, says Mathew. Detroit. There is your red line.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Get below that, you're in Round Two.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02Let's see if Detroit can do it for you. Good luck.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07It's right. Very well done indeed.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12There you go, through to Round Two. Nice low score.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15- Second-lowest score of the round. - APPLAUSE
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Good answer, Mat.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22Yeah, Detroit. It's not in Illinois, though. It's in Michigan.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23It's the largest city in Michigan.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Although, it's getting smaller by the minute, Detroit.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28It is, yes. Poor thing.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Indeed. Now then, Barbara.
0:14:30 > 0:14:31Welcome. What do you do?
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Well, I'm officially retired as an English teacher,
0:14:34 > 0:14:37but I keep getting called back.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39They can't seem to do without me, so...
0:14:39 > 0:14:41I'm still doing little bits of supply teaching,
0:14:41 > 0:14:44but mainly I'm very, very happily retired.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47And I spend my time with my three dogs
0:14:47 > 0:14:48and my husband's retired as well
0:14:48 > 0:14:50and we're over the hills and far away.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53- Yeah.- Do all the things that retired people do.- Yeah, how nice!
0:14:53 > 0:14:55- It is.- Fabulous. - I recommend it.- Good.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Well, there you are on 100. You have to score 22 or less, Barbara.
0:14:59 > 0:15:04That would be the fourth-lowest score of the round
0:15:04 > 0:15:06is what we're after.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Shall I go for Honolulu?
0:15:08 > 0:15:11Honolulu, says Barbara. There is your red line.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14Let's see if Honolulu gets you below that red line. Good luck.
0:15:17 > 0:15:18- It's right.- Yay!
0:15:18 > 0:15:20That's the first thing it had to be. Now.
0:15:22 > 0:15:26- You've done it. Honolulu. - APPLAUSE
0:15:31 > 0:15:35Yeah, terrific work, Barbara. Absolutely right. And Missouri,
0:15:35 > 0:15:39confusingly, the biggest city in Missouri is Kansas City.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Would have scored you 3 points. I know, right?
0:15:41 > 0:15:44The biggest city in Kansas is Wichita, so go figure.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Wichita would have scored you 1. Before we look at the pointless ones,
0:15:46 > 0:15:49I'll take you through some of the lower scorers.
0:15:49 > 0:15:533 points for Omaha, Nebraska. 2 points for Little Rock, Arkansas.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Milwaukee. 1 point for Charlotte, North Carolina,
0:15:56 > 0:15:59for Newark, New Jersey. Boise, Idaho. Columbus, Ohio
0:15:59 > 0:16:02and Jackson, Mississippi. And here are the pointless answers.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06Billings, which is the biggest city in Montana.
0:16:06 > 0:16:11Bridgeport, which is Connecticut. Burlington, which is Vermont.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14All very good answers. Well done if you got any of these.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Columbia is the biggest city in South Carolina.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20Fargo, the biggest city in North Dakota.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Louisville which is Kentucky.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25Manchester is New Hampshire. Sioux Falls is South Dakota
0:16:25 > 0:16:27and Wilmington is the biggest city in Delaware.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30All terrific answers. That's all the pointless answers up there..
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Well done if you got any. Let's take a look at the biggest answers.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36We'll find out the biggest city in California here.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40Chicago, that's Illinois. That's the biggest city in Illinois.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44Los Angeles is, of course, the biggest city in California, 46.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46And New York, we've already seen. Top of the shop, 79.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49Thanks very much indeed. So at the end of our first round,
0:16:49 > 0:16:52the pair heading home with a high score of 123,
0:16:52 > 0:16:54I'm sorry to say, Harriet and David, it is you.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57- Did you know any of those pointless ones, Harriet?- Yeah.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59I kind of panicked, thought of two, I thought of St Louis
0:16:59 > 0:17:02and Salt Lake City in Utah but I don't think that was right, was it?
0:17:02 > 0:17:03No, Salt Lake City is right.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05Salt Lake City would have scored you 6 points.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07Oh, great(!)
0:17:07 > 0:17:10- Yeah.- Sorry, I sort of said that in a happy way
0:17:10 > 0:17:12and I shouldn't have done. I should have said it in a sad way.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15- It's good that it's right.- Yeah. - Anyway, we have to say goodbye.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18We'll see you next time. Look forward to that.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21- Thanks very much. Harriet and David. - APPLAUSE
0:17:22 > 0:17:25But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33And so we're down to three pairs. Obviously, at the end of this round,
0:17:33 > 0:17:35we will be down to two pairs.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38I've got plaudits to hand out to every pair in front of me now.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Barbara and Scooter, well done.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44Honolulu and Portland, Oregon, respectively.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Colossal answers, wonderful. And, Mathew...
0:17:47 > 0:17:50- Welcome to the game. - LAUGHTER
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Good to have you among us. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53Our category for Round Two is...
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Yay(!)
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Cemeteries. Can you all decide in your pairs
0:18:00 > 0:18:03who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:18:03 > 0:18:05And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10OK, and the question concerns...
0:18:13 > 0:18:15Famous people in Highgate Cemetery. Richard.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18On each pass, we're simply going to give you six clues to famous people
0:18:18 > 0:18:21buried or interred in Highgate Cemetery.
0:18:21 > 0:18:22Just have to tell us who they are, please.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25There's going to be 12 in all to guess at home so very best of luck.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27OK, so we are looking for these people who are,
0:18:27 > 0:18:31obviously, very famous, also dead, and buried or interred...
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Well, let's hope they're dead, certainly.
0:18:33 > 0:18:38That's a good point. Yeah. Ooh. OK. Here is our first board of six,
0:18:38 > 0:18:39and it reads like this...
0:19:05 > 0:19:07I'll read those all one last time.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Judith, they're all yours.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39Right. I know all but one of them, I think.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42I think I'll go for the novelist,
0:19:42 > 0:19:44because I've just started reading that novel
0:19:44 > 0:19:46- and it's Beryl Bainbridge. - Beryl Bainbridge, says Judith.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Let's see if that's right and how many people said Beryl Bainbridge.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54It's a good answer.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Down it goes.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00Still going down. Look at that.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- Very well done. - APPLAUSE
0:20:03 > 0:20:06Judith, 3 for Beryl Bainbridge. What a start to the round.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Yeah, very nice timing, if you've just started it.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12Yeah, it's about a theatre company.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15They made a movie of it as well with Hugh Gant and Alan Rickman.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Thanks very much indeed. Now, Alex.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20I haven't got a clue of any of them.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22I was hoping this wasn't going to happen.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27I'll go for one of the original hosts
0:20:27 > 0:20:29of the TV series Game For A Laugh. Bob Monkhouse.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Bob Monkhouse. OK, let's see if that's right.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Let's see how many people said Bob Monkhouse if it is right.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41Oh, I'm sorry, Alex. Not a bad try, but incorrect, I'm afraid.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45- Scores you 100 points.- Yeah, sorry, Alex. He didn't appear on that show.
0:20:45 > 0:20:46Of course, he famously said, didn't he,
0:20:46 > 0:20:49"They laughed when I said I wanted to become a comedian.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52"They're not laughing now." LAUGHTER
0:20:52 > 0:20:53Nor am I.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Now then, Tas. You're the last person to have this board
0:20:58 > 0:20:59so you can mop up if you like.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Do you want to talk us through the board?
0:21:01 > 0:21:04Well, it's not going to take very long. I don't know any of those.
0:21:04 > 0:21:09So... I'll just go for manager of the Sex Pistols and, um...
0:21:09 > 0:21:10John Smith.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13Just because it's two names, so...
0:21:13 > 0:21:16OK, John Smith, manager of the Sex Pistols. Is it right?
0:21:19 > 0:21:21No, bad luck. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Scores you the maximum of 100 points.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25- Sorry, Tas. - When people make up names,
0:21:25 > 0:21:28they so often say John Smith or James Brown, don't they?
0:21:28 > 0:21:29John Smith's just a very common one.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32But you'd be going a long time before you guessed his name.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33You know that one, I'm guessing?
0:21:33 > 0:21:36- Malcolm McLaren.- Malcolm McLaren, yep. Would have scored you 30 points.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39The original host of TV series Game For A Laugh?
0:21:39 > 0:21:41- I'm guessing Jeremy Beadle? - It is Jeremy Beadle.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Would have scored you 15.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46Now, the author who created Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy,
0:21:46 > 0:21:48- Arthur Dent, Dirk Gently...? - Douglas Adams.
0:21:48 > 0:21:49The wonderful Douglas Adams.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Would have scored you 11.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55Do you know the comedian? His name's in the end of his made-up name.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58- It's Max Wall.- Max Wall.- Yep.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Would have scored you ten points. Who would you have gone for,
0:22:01 > 0:22:03- Judith, for the top one? - Martita Hunt.- It's Jean Simmons.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06- Just as well, I didn't go for that. - It's pointless answer
0:22:06 > 0:22:08so would have been terrific. Well done if you said that.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10Thanks, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13Let's take a look at those scores. 3, Judith and Barbara.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15This is marvellous. Very well done indeed.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18We then go up to 100 where we find Alex and Mathew
0:22:18 > 0:22:21and Tas and Scooter. Scooter, you get first bite of the new board,
0:22:21 > 0:22:24so let's hope there's something on there that you can answer.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26We're going to come back down the line.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Second players, please step up to the podium.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33OK, we're going to put six more people up on the board
0:22:33 > 0:22:34and here they come.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04I'll read those one last time.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Remember, we are looking for these people described by these clues.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37They're all buried at Highgate Cemetery. Scooter.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39OK. Well, um, hmm.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41There's two that I've got in mind.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45I'm going to go with the last one, author of Das Kapital. Karl Marx.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Karl Marx says Scooter. No red line for you
0:23:47 > 0:23:50as you are joint high-scorers. But let's see if Karl Marx is right.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Let's see how many people said it.
0:23:54 > 0:23:55Absolutely right.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Wow.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03APPLAUSE
0:24:03 > 0:24:0727. Not such a high score after all. 127, your total.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Well done, Scooter. Given yourself a chance there.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Yes, his gravestone reads, "Workers of all lands unite."
0:24:12 > 0:24:16Thanks, Richard. Now, Mathew. Mathew, you have a target.
0:24:16 > 0:24:1826 or less is what we need from you.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22This is ridiculous. I know what electrical capacitance is,
0:24:22 > 0:24:25so I know what the guy's last name is.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27I can't think what his first name is.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30That's probably the closest I'm going to get to an answer.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32So I'm going to go for it. I'll go for something like
0:24:32 > 0:24:33Johann Farad.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Johann Farad. Now, you have to get below that red line
0:24:37 > 0:24:39with Johann Farad.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Let's see if it's right... Let's see if it's right, first.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48Oh, I'm afraid an incorrect answer. Scores you 100 points.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52Takes your total up to an unbeatable 200. Sorry, Mathew.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55Sorry, Mathew. Back where you belong though with the old hundreds.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58- I'll give you the correct answer at the end...- I've just remembered it.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00- At the end of the pass. - I've just figured it out.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04OK. Now then, Barbara.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08Um, there are two. I'm not sure of the first one,
0:25:08 > 0:25:10but the second one is George Eliot
0:25:10 > 0:25:13and the third one is Ralph Miliband.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15I think I'll go for George Eliot.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17OK, George Eliot, says Barbara.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20No red line for you, for the lovely reason that you're already through.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22But let's see how many people said George Eliot.
0:25:24 > 0:25:25It's right.
0:25:27 > 0:25:31Well, our lowest score so far has been yours as well, which was 3.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33- George Eliot scores 11. - APPLAUSE
0:25:33 > 0:25:3414 is your total.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Very well played. Yes, she'd asked to be buried in Westminster Abbey,
0:25:40 > 0:25:44but the dean wouldn't allow it because she was an atheist.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48So he refused. Now, the electrical unit question.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50Do you think it's come to you?
0:25:50 > 0:25:53- It's Michael Faraday, isn't it? - Michael Faraday is exactly right.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56I couldn't get Farad out my head, and I thought it sounded...
0:25:56 > 0:25:58European. So I went for Johann.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01It's not bad, Johann. It's a good European name from the 1790s.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03I'm going to get killed when I go back to work.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Oh, look at the score your would have had!
0:26:05 > 0:26:07Would have scored you 2 points though. So you knew it
0:26:07 > 0:26:10and you said you know it before we read it out, so...
0:26:10 > 0:26:12Doesn't matter now. We're going home.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16Let's look at the rest of these. You're right about Ralph Miliband,
0:26:16 > 0:26:19father of the man who became leader of the Labour Party. 12 points.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22Author of the play Sleuth. Do you know that one?
0:26:22 > 0:26:25I'm trying to think of a Peter. Peter Shaffer?
0:26:25 > 0:26:27- Yeah, Anthony Shaffer. - So Anthony Shaffer, good.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Would have scored you 1 point. And the female poet?
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Is Christina Rossetti. Would have scored you 4 points,
0:26:33 > 0:26:36so the best answer on that board is Anthony Shaffer,
0:26:36 > 0:26:38but Michael Faraday not far behind.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41Thank you very much. So at the end of our second round,
0:26:41 > 0:26:44the pair heading home with a high score of 200.
0:26:44 > 0:26:48Oh, and with Michael Faraday, you'd have been in the head-to-head.
0:26:49 > 0:26:50Oh, Mathew.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53I don't think Wales will let me back in the country.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55Is that the Severn Bridge shut?
0:26:55 > 0:26:58Anyway, it's been wonderful having you on both shows.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00- Alex and Mathew, great contestants. - APPLAUSE
0:27:01 > 0:27:04But for Scooter and Tas and Judith and Barbara,
0:27:04 > 0:27:06it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13Well, congratulations, Judith and Barbara, Scooter and Tas.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15You're now one step closer to the final and a chance to play
0:27:15 > 0:27:19for our jackpot which currently stands at £3,000.
0:27:19 > 0:27:20APPLAUSE
0:27:23 > 0:27:25So now we have to decide who's going to play for that money
0:27:25 > 0:27:27and to do that, you're going to go head-to-head.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30The difference is you can now confer before you give your answers.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:27:49 > 0:27:51Home and away kits.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53We're going to show you five images now of home and away kits
0:27:53 > 0:27:56of teams who played in the Premier League in 2013-2014.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Can you name the teams, please?
0:27:58 > 0:28:02OK, thanks very much. Let's reveal our five kits and here they come.
0:28:02 > 0:28:03We've got...
0:28:24 > 0:28:27There we are. Five home and away kits.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30Judith and Barbara, you've played best throughout the show so far,
0:28:30 > 0:28:32so you will go first.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35- (I think C is Aston Villa.) - (I was going to say Aston Villa.)
0:28:35 > 0:28:39(I think B is Chelsea. Shall we go with Aston Villa?)
0:28:41 > 0:28:45- We'll choose C, Aston Villa. - C, Aston Villa.
0:28:45 > 0:28:48C, Aston Villa, say Judith and Barbara. Now, Scooter and Tas,
0:28:48 > 0:28:52do you fancy talking us through the board? Thinking out loud for us?
0:28:52 > 0:28:58Erm, I think A is Manchester United. B is...Chelsea.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01I'm glad that they picked C because I was going to say West Ham.
0:29:01 > 0:29:05- D, no clue. And E...- No chance.
0:29:05 > 0:29:08- I'm tempted to say C, West Ham, to be honest.- It's up to you.
0:29:08 > 0:29:09I don't know. It's up to you.
0:29:09 > 0:29:13- I'm going to go with my gut. Let's say C, West Ham.- C, West Ham.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16So, you're both jockeying for C here.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18Is it Aston Villa? Is it West Ham?
0:29:18 > 0:29:21Judith and Barbara have said that C is Aston Villa.
0:29:21 > 0:29:23Let's see if that's right and let's see...
0:29:23 > 0:29:26Well, let's see if that's right. That'll tell us a lot.
0:29:29 > 0:29:31It is right!
0:29:31 > 0:29:32There we are.
0:29:34 > 0:29:36APPLAUSE
0:29:36 > 0:29:3928, but the key thing, it is right.
0:29:40 > 0:29:44- Scooter and Tas.- I'm watching now. I'm watching for this.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46- Maybe you're also right.- Good luck.
0:29:46 > 0:29:49But, yeah, which means, Scooter and Tas, that you are...
0:29:51 > 0:29:55..wrong. There we are. Well, Judith and Barbara, well done.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57After one question, you're up 1-0.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00Yeah, the home kit's virtually identical, West Ham and Aston Villa,
0:30:00 > 0:30:03but not the away kit, I'm afraid. But worth a go.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06Now A, you thought was Man United. I wish it was. It's Fulham.
0:30:06 > 0:30:07Would have scored you 15 points.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10B was Chelsea. You knew that. Would have scored too many points though.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12Would have scored you 42.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15D was Arsenal, but would have scored too many points.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20Would have scored 38. Now, E. No inkling about who it was?
0:30:22 > 0:30:23I've... Portsmouth?
0:30:23 > 0:30:26Swansea City. Swansea City.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28And would have scored you 9 points,
0:30:28 > 0:30:30so that's the best answer on the board.
0:30:30 > 0:30:34Thank very much. Here comes your second question. Scooter and Tas,
0:30:34 > 0:30:36you get to answer this one first, but you have to win it
0:30:36 > 0:30:39to stay in the game, so very best of luck. It concerns...
0:30:43 > 0:30:45Songs that share their titles with TV shows. Richard.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48We're going to show you five sets of initials now which are songs
0:30:48 > 0:30:49that share their name with TV shows.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52We're also going to show you who had a hit with that song
0:30:52 > 0:30:53and in what year as well.
0:30:53 > 0:30:57So what songs slash TV shows do these initials stand for?
0:30:57 > 0:30:59OK, Let's reveal our board of five songs
0:30:59 > 0:31:01that share their titles with TV shows and we've got...
0:31:30 > 0:31:32Scooter and Tas, you'll go first.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37- (I know them all except the last one.)- (I don't know the last one.)
0:31:38 > 0:31:41- (You don't know number three, and I do.)- (So try three.)
0:31:41 > 0:31:44We've decided that we're going to go with number three.
0:31:44 > 0:31:46Any Dream Will Do.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49Any Dream Will Do, OK. Any Dream Will Do.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51Now then, Judith and Barbara, the board is all yours.
0:31:51 > 0:31:53Talk us through it if you can.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56Well, we've got Life On Mars with David Bowie on the top.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Followed by Imagine with John Lennon.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00I don't know P. I don't know the Dannii Minogue one.
0:32:00 > 0:32:04- Pants?- Pants! I think WILTY is Would I Lie To You?
0:32:04 > 0:32:06- Shall we go for that? - We'll go for that one.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08OK, you're going to go for Would I Lie To You?
0:32:08 > 0:32:10Any Dream Will Do, Would I Lie To You?
0:32:10 > 0:32:11Scooter and Tas said Any Dream Will Do.
0:32:11 > 0:32:14Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.
0:32:16 > 0:32:17It is, of course, right.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24APPLAUSE
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Judith and Barbara, meanwhile, have said WILTY is
0:32:30 > 0:32:33Would I Lie To You? Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:32:33 > 0:32:34let's see how many people said that.
0:32:37 > 0:32:38It's absolutely right, of course.
0:32:43 > 0:32:45APPLAUSE
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Which means, Scooter and Tas, you're back in the game.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51- Well done, it's one all. - Yeah, only one answer there
0:32:51 > 0:32:53that would have beaten Any Dream Will Do.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56Terrific head-to-head so far. Let's go through the answers.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58Life On Mars. You were right, David Bowie.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01Wouldn't have won you the point, though. 26 that would have scored.
0:33:01 > 0:33:02I is Imagine.
0:33:03 > 0:33:07And that would have scored you 71. Now, the bottom one,
0:33:07 > 0:33:10I would have thought you could have had a guess at, because P
0:33:10 > 0:33:12is the name of everyone's favourite daytime television show,
0:33:12 > 0:33:14presented by that hunky guy,
0:33:14 > 0:33:16Nick Knowles. It's Perfection.
0:33:16 > 0:33:20- Oh! - ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:33:20 > 0:33:22Would have scored you 5 points.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Thanks very much, Richard. Here comes your third question.
0:33:25 > 0:33:28This is the decider. Whoever wins this goes through to the final.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30Best of luck to both pairs. It concerns...
0:33:33 > 0:33:35Things you find in the kitchen. Richard.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37We're going to show you the names of five things
0:33:37 > 0:33:40you'd find in your kitchen now, but we've given them in anagram form.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42The team who can give us the most obscure answer
0:33:42 > 0:33:45is going through to play for the jackpot, so best of luck.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48OK. Let's reveal our five anagrams and here they come.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50We've got...
0:33:58 > 0:33:59I'll read those all again.
0:34:07 > 0:34:10There we are. Five things you'd find in your kitchen.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13- Judith and Barbara, you will go first.- Eventually.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17- Erm...- Oh, come on.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21- (Frying pan's the top one.) - (Oh, yeah.)- (Shall we go for that?)
0:34:21 > 0:34:22(Go for that, because I can't think.)
0:34:22 > 0:34:27- Erm, we'll go for frying pan for the top one.- OK, frying pan.
0:34:27 > 0:34:31Frying pan. Now, Scooter and Tas.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34I think the last one is...mixing bowl.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36- Yeah. Fridge-freezer, that one. - Oh, yeah!
0:34:36 > 0:34:41Dishwasher is the third one down. And the last one is...
0:34:42 > 0:34:46- Tin opener!- Tin opener, very good. Let's say tin opener.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48OK, you're going to go for tin opener. Let's see.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51Judith and Barbara said frying pan. Let's see if that's right.
0:34:51 > 0:34:53Let's see how many people said frying pan.
0:34:55 > 0:34:56It's right.
0:35:02 > 0:35:04APPLAUSE
0:35:07 > 0:35:1114 for frying pan. Scooter and Tas have said "note rep in"
0:35:11 > 0:35:13is tin opener. Let's see if that's right.
0:35:13 > 0:35:14Let's see how many people said it.
0:35:17 > 0:35:18It's right.
0:35:19 > 0:35:20If this beats 14...
0:35:23 > 0:35:27..which it does, you go through into the final. Very well done indeed.
0:35:27 > 0:35:30After three questions, Scooter and Tas,
0:35:30 > 0:35:31you are through to the final 2-1.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34Great head-to-head. The best two answers on the board.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36It was the only answer you could have got
0:35:36 > 0:35:38that would have won you the point.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40It is fridge freezer. That's the biggest scorer.
0:35:41 > 0:35:44Would have scored you 64 points. Dishwasher.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47Would have scored you 32.
0:35:47 > 0:35:50And mixing bowl, right at the bottom there, would have scored you 31.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54- So, tin opener, best answer there. - Thanks very much.
0:35:54 > 0:35:57So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:35:57 > 0:35:59I'm afraid it's Judith and Barbara.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02I mean, an exemplary performance throughout the show.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04Some really good grouping in this last round, you scored 28
0:36:04 > 0:36:06on both of your first two answers,
0:36:06 > 0:36:08which won you the point in the first question,
0:36:08 > 0:36:09lost you the point in the second.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12And then half that, 14, for your last one.
0:36:12 > 0:36:14- Just telling you what the maths is. - Thank you.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16We will see you again next time.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18We'll look forward to that very much indeed.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21- Judith and Barbara, thanks so much. - APPLAUSE
0:36:21 > 0:36:23- Good luck.- But for Scooter and Tas,
0:36:23 > 0:36:25it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Congratulations, Scooter and Tas,
0:36:30 > 0:36:32you've fought off all the competition
0:36:32 > 0:36:34and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:36:43 > 0:36:46and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £3,000.
0:36:46 > 0:36:48APPLAUSE
0:36:50 > 0:36:51You've done really well.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53I'm thrilled you've got through to the final,
0:36:53 > 0:36:56because it's always nice to see people do well,
0:36:56 > 0:36:57but I'm sad you've got through
0:36:57 > 0:37:00because it means we then say goodbye to you at the end.
0:37:00 > 0:37:01We won't have you for a second show.
0:37:01 > 0:37:04And I'm more upset because my other shirt, my wife absolutely hates
0:37:04 > 0:37:07because it makes this one look plain.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09- And I don't get to wear it now. - You don't get to wear it.- No.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12The only consolation will be you have to win three grand.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14- That's it. You have to win the jackpot.- No pressure.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16As always, you get to choose your category.
0:37:16 > 0:37:19You have four options to choose from. Here they are.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31I don't really know much about artists in the Tate's collection,
0:37:31 > 0:37:33- so shall we do...?- I think... - Debut solo albums.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36- Debut solo albums.- Nice and easy, debut solo albums it is. Rich.
0:37:36 > 0:37:38OK, very best of luck. Three questions here.
0:37:38 > 0:37:42We are looking for the name of any track on the initial CD recording
0:37:42 > 0:37:44of any of the following three albums.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47Ronan Keating's debut solo album, Ronan.
0:37:48 > 0:37:52Robbie Williams' debut solo album, Life Thru A Lens.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54Or George Michael's debut solo album, Faith.
0:37:54 > 0:37:56So any of the tracks listed
0:37:56 > 0:37:59on the initial releases of those three albums, please.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01Obviously, we won't accept title tracks
0:38:01 > 0:38:02so we wouldn't accept Life Thru A Lens or Faith
0:38:02 > 0:38:04because they haven't been polled.
0:38:04 > 0:38:06And hidden tracks and stuff.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08So it's just stuff that's listed on the albums.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10OK, thank you very much indeed. Now as always,
0:38:10 > 0:38:13you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:38:13 > 0:38:14and all you need to win that jackpot
0:38:14 > 0:38:19is for just one of those answers to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:38:19 > 0:38:22- Yep.- Yep.- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23Your time starts now.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25Well, what do you think? I know Rollercoaster
0:38:25 > 0:38:27was on Ronan Keating's album.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30Erm, I think Robbie Williams had...
0:38:31 > 0:38:34Didn't he have Rock Me DJ, or was that on his second album?
0:38:34 > 0:38:36- No, that's a lot newer. - Oh, all right.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39I think... It's coming. What's on George Michael, Faith?
0:38:39 > 0:38:42- I have Faith. - Well, we can't have that.
0:38:44 > 0:38:49- Didn't he do, erm... She's The One? - She's The One.- On that album?
0:38:49 > 0:38:51That's Robbie Williams did that. Yeah, yeah.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54Loads of people are going to know that one but that'll be one.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57- Just trying to think. - George Michael, I don't know.
0:38:57 > 0:38:58Faith... He did, um...
0:38:59 > 0:39:01- Faith.- When You Say Nothing At All.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04Was that on Ronan Keating's debut album? Rollercoaster.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07- Wasn't that one of his?- I think so. But I think that's a lot newer.
0:39:07 > 0:39:08Erm...
0:39:12 > 0:39:15- He did, erm...- Ten seconds left. - Old When I Die, Robbie Williams did.
0:39:15 > 0:39:19I think that might be on that one.
0:39:19 > 0:39:23Oh, what else? He did... He did Faith. Robbie Williams did Faith.
0:39:23 > 0:39:27OK. I now need you three answers. What are they going to be?
0:39:27 > 0:39:29OK, well, all goes for the Robbie Williams ones.
0:39:29 > 0:39:33- OK.- Old Before I Die. - Old Before I Die.
0:39:33 > 0:39:38- I think Robbie Williams did Faith. - Faith.- As well and She's The One.
0:39:38 > 0:39:39She's The One. Now, of those three,
0:39:39 > 0:39:42which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Old Before I Die, but I don't know if it's on that album.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46Old Before I Die. We'll put that last.
0:39:46 > 0:39:48- Least likely to be pointless? - She's The One.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50She's The One, we'll put that first.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54OK, let's pop those up in the board in that order and here they come.
0:39:57 > 0:39:58Very, very best of luck.
0:39:58 > 0:40:01Three nice-looking answers up on that board.
0:40:01 > 0:40:05If one of these is pointless and you win 3,000 quid -
0:40:05 > 0:40:07quite a nice jackpot to be taking home with you -
0:40:07 > 0:40:09what will you be doing with that, Scooter?
0:40:09 > 0:40:12I think I would buy each of my three lovely ladies at home
0:40:12 > 0:40:16something nice. My wife and my five-year-old daughter, Eleanor,
0:40:16 > 0:40:18and my three-year-old daughter, Adelaide.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21Hi, Ellie. Hi, Addie. I'd buy them something nice
0:40:21 > 0:40:24and probably the rest I might spend down the pub.
0:40:24 > 0:40:27- Fair enough. Tas, how about you? - I'd probably treat my mum
0:40:27 > 0:40:33to a nice meal. And then I would buy very expensive cat toys.
0:40:33 > 0:40:38Excellent. Very expensive cat toys. Some diamante cat toys.
0:40:38 > 0:40:40OK, very good. She's The One.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42Your least-confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44Let's find out if it's right. Let's find out,
0:40:44 > 0:40:46for £3,000, if it's pointless.
0:40:49 > 0:40:50Oh, no!
0:40:51 > 0:40:53OK, well, we've cleared that one off the board.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56Only two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58Everything is now riding on these two.
0:40:58 > 0:41:01Faith was your second answer. Let's see in the first instance
0:41:01 > 0:41:06if it's right. And then for £3,000, let's see if it's pointless too.
0:41:09 > 0:41:10- No.- No!
0:41:11 > 0:41:13- Oh, no!- OK, now.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15I have great faith in this last one.
0:41:15 > 0:41:20- Ironic you didn't have it in the Faith one.- I'm afraid I didn't, no.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22Everything is now riding on Old Before I Die.
0:41:22 > 0:41:25Let's find out if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:41:25 > 0:41:29If it's pointless, it will win you £3,000. Old Before I Die.
0:41:32 > 0:41:34It's right!
0:41:34 > 0:41:37So your first answer, She's The One, was incorrect.
0:41:37 > 0:41:40As, I'm afraid, was Faith, your second answer. But Old Before I Die
0:41:40 > 0:41:42takes us down into single figures, still going down.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44- Oh, no! - APPLAUSE
0:41:49 > 0:41:52That's a good answer. It's a great score.
0:41:52 > 0:41:54But I'm afraid it's not a pointless answer,
0:41:54 > 0:41:56so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £3,000.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58That will roll over onto the next show,
0:41:58 > 0:42:01but it's been great having you. I'm so sorry it's been just one show.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04But you've been fantastic contestants and you get to take home
0:42:04 > 0:42:07a Pointless trophy each, so there is at least that.
0:42:07 > 0:42:08APPLAUSE
0:42:10 > 0:42:12Well played. You've been great fun as well.
0:42:12 > 0:42:15She's The One was on his second album, I've Been Expecting You.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18- And he didn't do Faith, he did Freedom.- Oh, that was it.
0:42:18 > 0:42:21Which wasn't on this album either, but that's the one he did.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23Let's take a look at some pointless answers.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26Life Is A Rollercoaster, if you'd said it, would have scored 19 points.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28Also you'd have got 7 for When You Say Nothing At All
0:42:28 > 0:42:29and 2 for In This Life.
0:42:29 > 0:42:33Every other track on that album is a pointless answer, including Believe,
0:42:33 > 0:42:35Keep On Walking, Only For You and The Way You Make Me Feel.
0:42:35 > 0:42:36All of those pointless.
0:42:37 > 0:42:41Robbie. Baby Girl Window, Clean, Killing Me,
0:42:41 > 0:42:43One Of God's Better People was a pointless answer.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45And George Michael...
0:42:45 > 0:42:48A Last Request, Monkey, Hard Day, Kissing A Fool.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51You also could have had Hand To Mouth and Look At Your Hands.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54All pointless answers. Well done if you got any of those at home.
0:42:54 > 0:42:57And unlucky in the studio. Well played.
0:42:57 > 0:43:00Well, unfortunately we have to say goodbye to you, Scooter and Tas.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02But it's been fabulous having you on the show.
0:43:02 > 0:43:06- Great contestants, Scooter and Tas. - APPLAUSE
0:43:07 > 0:43:10Who sadly didn't win the jackpot today, which means it rolls over
0:43:10 > 0:43:13onto the next show when we will be playing for £4,000.
0:43:13 > 0:43:16CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:43:16 > 0:43:18Join us, then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:18 > 0:43:20- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:20 > 0:43:22And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
