0:00:20 > 0:00:21APPLAUSE

0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed. I'm Alexander Armstrong

0:00:24 > 0:00:27and welcome to Pointless, the game where we aim for the obscure

0:00:27 > 0:00:28and we ignore the obvious.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.

0:00:34 > 0:00:37- And couple number one.- Hello, I'm Kirsten. This is my boyfriend Rob.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39We're both from Glasgow in Scotland.

0:00:39 > 0:00:41- Couple number two.- Hi, I'm Janet.

0:00:41 > 0:00:43This is my daughter Liz and we're from Shrewsbury in Shropshire.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46- Couple number three.- Hello, I'm John from Basingstoke

0:00:46 > 0:00:48and this is my friend Martin who's from Birmingham.

0:00:48 > 0:00:51- And, finally, couple number four. - Hi, I'm Jamie.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53This is my housemate Robbie

0:00:53 > 0:00:55and we're both from the University of Leeds.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57And these are today's contestants.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Thanks very much, all of you.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02We'll find out more throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08He recently had his eyebrows raised by a cosmetic surgeon

0:01:08 > 0:01:10so he can at least look surprised at some of the facts.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15Hiya. Hi, everybody. Hiya.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21You can do that thing, can't you, where you can raise one eyebrow?

0:01:21 > 0:01:25Oh, I'm so envious. I'd love to be able to do that.

0:01:25 > 0:01:29My son can do that. Where's he got that from? Oh, it's annoying.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31- Now, what a lovely show last time! - Wasn't that lovely?

0:01:31 > 0:01:33You've got two returning pairs from that.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35They were knocked out in round one and round two,

0:01:35 > 0:01:38but we've had a run recently of pairs being knocked out in round one

0:01:38 > 0:01:41and round two and, then, being the head-to-head pairs.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43I think we've had it three times recently, so it might happen again,

0:01:43 > 0:01:46especially because no-one got a wrong answer last time.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49John and Martin, they're on podium three now, got knocked out

0:01:49 > 0:01:51in round one, and Liz and Janet, very unlucky to be knocked out

0:01:51 > 0:01:54in round two. It was a very, very low-scoring round, that one.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56It was a good show and, then, Azaria and Kim.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59Oh, we gave them some shocking final categories, didn't we?

0:01:59 > 0:02:02I mean, really, we really stitched them up, unfortunately.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05They made a good fist of it but the jackpot remains,

0:02:05 > 0:02:08- but through no fault of their own, I have to say.- Yeah.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11Thanks very much indeed. So, yes, as you'll have gathered,

0:02:11 > 0:02:13Azaria and Kim didn't win the jackpot so we add

0:02:13 > 0:02:17another £1,000 to that, so today's jackpot start off at £2,000.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30So, remember, the pair with the highest score

0:02:30 > 0:02:32at the end of each round will be eliminated.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36Your job as contestants is to make sure you are not that pair.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39Best of luck with that. Our first category today is...

0:02:41 > 0:02:44Royalty. Can you all decide in your pairs

0:02:44 > 0:02:46who's going to go first, who's going second,

0:02:46 > 0:02:49and, whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:03:00 > 0:03:04..as they could. British monarchs between the Elizabeths. Richard.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Yeah, looking for any reigning monarch of England, Scotland,

0:03:06 > 0:03:10Great Britain or the United Kingdom between Elizabeth I and Elizabeth II,

0:03:10 > 0:03:13please. Very best of luck. We need name and regnal number.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16- Thank you very much indeed. Now, Kirsten, welcome.- Hello.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18Here from Glasgow. What do you do, Kirsten?

0:03:18 > 0:03:21- I'm a spinal veterinary surgeon. - You're a what-what?

0:03:21 > 0:03:24- Spinal vet surgeon.- How long have you done that for?

0:03:24 > 0:03:28- I graduated in 2006, so, yeah, since then.- Excellent. Loving it?

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Yeah, it's good. It's very variable. I've worked out of hours before

0:03:31 > 0:03:34and now I'm in a nice general practice so it's quite nice.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37Excellent. And what do you get up to when you're not doing that?

0:03:37 > 0:03:39I like to go snowboarding with my pals.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42- Do you ever do that in Scotland? - Yes.- Up in the Cairngorms?

0:03:42 > 0:03:46- Yeah, yeah. Up the Cairngorms. - Up to Aviemore.- Been to Aviemore.

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Fell down a mountain in Glencoe.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51That was fun. Not bruised too bad. All good.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54And I actually won a holiday to Poland last year at a ski show

0:03:54 > 0:03:57so I went to Poland last year skiing and snowboarding. It was good.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01- Anyway, so, Kirsten, yes, royalty. - Yes.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05I meant to kind of revise this but kind of forgot to. Yeah.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08So, Elizabeth I is a Tudor

0:04:08 > 0:04:11so I'll go for James I.

0:04:11 > 0:04:15James I, says Kirsten. James I. Let's see if that is right.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:04:19 > 0:04:20It's right.

0:04:25 > 0:04:2632.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30We'll discover as the round goes on if that's a good or a bad score

0:04:30 > 0:04:33but I think it's pretty good, isn't it? 32 gets the ball rolling.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35- Yeah, good.- Yeah, James I or James VI of Scotland.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38One of his lasting contributions, of course, is authorising

0:04:38 > 0:04:42- the King James Bible.- Indeed.- That was him.- Thank you very much indeed.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45- Now, Janet. Janet, welcome back. - Thank you.

0:04:45 > 0:04:50- So, we discovered you are a retired farmer's wife.- Yes.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52With all that that implies. Basically, running the farm.

0:04:52 > 0:04:56- Oh, yes.- Yes.- Yes.- What do you get up to nowadays?

0:04:56 > 0:04:59I like gardening and I play bridge.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03- Do you play bridge very seriously? - No, not really.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05- Some people do.- I saw that, Liz. Yeah.

0:05:05 > 0:05:10- You do take it quite seriously. How often do you play?- Twice a week.

0:05:10 > 0:05:11Yes, that's quite serious.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15- When you're not doing that, what else do you do?- We like travelling.

0:05:15 > 0:05:20We're both retired now, my husband and I, and help in the community.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23Excellent. Janet, what do you want to go for?

0:05:23 > 0:05:27I think I will try William and Mary.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29William and Mary.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32We need to take your first answer. I know what you mean

0:05:32 > 0:05:34but we need to take your first answer which is William.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37You now have to tell us which William.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Oh.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- We need a regnal number. - Well, I'm not really sure,

0:05:42 > 0:05:44so I'll say William I.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47OK, Janet's going for William I. Let's see if that's right

0:05:47 > 0:05:50and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said William I.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57No! I'm sorry, Janet. I'm sorry.

0:05:57 > 0:06:01That's an incorrect answer. Scores you 100 points.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04Yeah, sorry, Janet. William I was William the Conqueror, I'm afraid.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Of course he was!

0:06:07 > 0:06:10Thank you very much. Now, John, welcome back.

0:06:10 > 0:06:11Welcome back. We discovered last time

0:06:11 > 0:06:14- that you printed money for a living. - True.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17- There's so many things we could ask you.- I've got it for you,

0:06:17 > 0:06:18- by the way.- Oh, you brought it.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22Oh, the case round the back. I saw it. Yep, yep, very good. Good, good.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24So, what do you fill your retirement with, John?

0:06:24 > 0:06:27I play golf and I'm a member of the local Rotary Club

0:06:27 > 0:06:28so we raise funds for charity.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30Do you travel around as the Rotary Club?

0:06:30 > 0:06:34I travel around an awful lot in my leisure and Rotary roles,

0:06:34 > 0:06:36- as well, yes.- Because there's usually a lot of sort of twinning

0:06:36 > 0:06:39- with Rotarys, isn't it?- We do. We have a twin town in Belgium

0:06:39 > 0:06:41which is Braine-l'Alleud which is near Waterloo.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43They won't be watching. What's it like? Is it a nice place?

0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Is it a good place to be twinned with?- Fabulous place. Lovely people

0:06:46 > 0:06:49and the wine is fantastic. Belgian wine, you'd be surprised.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52I've never even heard of Belgian wine. Isn't that terrible?

0:06:52 > 0:06:55- Nor have I.- No, I've heard a Belgian whine, but I've...

0:06:55 > 0:06:56No, it's a lovely place.

0:06:56 > 0:07:01OK, yes. Of all the places to be twinned with! Isn't that lovely?

0:07:01 > 0:07:03A nice place in Belgium.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05That's good.

0:07:05 > 0:07:09Now, John, how are we feeling about our monarchs between the Elizabeths?

0:07:09 > 0:07:11OK.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14- Queen Anne.- Queen Anne, says John. Queen Anne.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17Let's see if that's right. Let's see how may people said Queen Anne.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21It's a very good answer, John.

0:07:21 > 0:07:2332 is our low score at this point.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26I have a hunch you'll go below that. Yes, you do.

0:07:26 > 0:07:2714, very well done.

0:07:29 > 0:07:32Queen Anne. Very good answer.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34Yeah, she was the last of the Stuart monarchs

0:07:34 > 0:07:37and, of course, the first sovereign of Great Britain, Anne.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Jamie, welcome to Pointless.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43Great to have you here. From Leeds. You're at university there.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46- What are you studying?- I'm studying politics at the moment.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48- Enjoying it?- Yeah. It's good, yeah. It's good.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50- What year are you in?- Second year.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53- OK, good. You didn't change at the end of the first year.- No.

0:07:53 > 0:07:57Here's the question I ask every person who's reading politics.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00- Would you ever go into politics? - Surprisingly, no.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03No, that's not a surprise. That's the answer everybody gives.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06That's essentially why people read politics.

0:08:06 > 0:08:07To get it out of their system.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10What do you do when you're not studying, Jamie?

0:08:10 > 0:08:13I am a music editor at the student paper.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16- You write up all the music stories? - I try to, yeah.

0:08:16 > 0:08:20- There isn't a newspaper choir that you're in charge of?- No, no.- I see.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23OK, so you get good bands coming up to Leeds? Plenty of them.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25Plenty of them from Leeds.

0:08:25 > 0:08:29Try and arrange interviews and send people to review gigs

0:08:29 > 0:08:32- and albums and that kind of thing, yeah.- Very good.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35OK, so, Jamie, how's your history?

0:08:35 > 0:08:39Not brilliant, but I'm going to take a punt.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43I'm going to go for Edward VI.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46Edward VI. Edward VI, says Jamie.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see

0:08:49 > 0:08:50how many of our 100 people said it.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Oh, I'm sorry, Jamie. I'm sorry.

0:08:56 > 0:09:00They got through a lot of Edwards before Elizabeth I.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02I'm afraid that scores you 100 points. Mind you,

0:09:02 > 0:09:05you're not the only 100. You're in good company.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Yeah, sorry, as Xander said, he was before Elizabeth I, I'm afraid.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Thanks very much indeed. Well, we're halfway through the round.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14Let's take a look at those scores. Three scores between the four.

0:09:14 > 0:09:1614 the lowest score of the pass. Well done, John.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Queen Anne, what a great answer!

0:09:18 > 0:09:21Then up to 32 where we see Kirsten and Rob and, then, up to 100,

0:09:21 > 0:09:24Jamie and Robbie and Janet and Liz.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27So, Robbie and Liz, it's between you two. Best of luck.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30Let's see who can come up with the most obscure monarch

0:09:30 > 0:09:32between the Elizabeths. We're going to come back down the line.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:09:37 > 0:09:41Robbie, welcome. Good to have you here. Also from Leeds University.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44- That's right.- I'm guessing you're also in your second year.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47- Yeah.- What are you studying?- I study English and philosophy.- Very good.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50And at what stage in your first year did you discover Jamie?

0:09:50 > 0:09:53The first day. Very first day. At halls of residence.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56- You're neighbouring rooms? - Well, no, actually.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59I popped into the common room and Jamie was there looking lost,

0:09:59 > 0:10:01as lost as me, and we decided to go out.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03- Since we were in Leeds. - Very good.

0:10:03 > 0:10:04Ah, excellent!

0:10:04 > 0:10:08And what else do you get up to when you're not studying?

0:10:08 > 0:10:10Like Jamie, I do music journalism.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13I'm head of music at Leeds student radio

0:10:13 > 0:10:15so I do his job but on the radio.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17Very good. Do you ever just do each other's work?

0:10:17 > 0:10:19I mean, do you ever just kind of just say,

0:10:19 > 0:10:21"Oh, I haven't written a review for the gig,"

0:10:21 > 0:10:22and just past the stuff over?

0:10:22 > 0:10:25No. I think it's slightly easier to talk about music

0:10:25 > 0:10:27than it is to write about music. It's definitely less effort,

0:10:27 > 0:10:31- so I'm happy to do my work.- OK, so how often are you on radio, then?

0:10:31 > 0:10:33Two or three times a week, usually.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36Have you become a bit of a celebrity around the campus?

0:10:36 > 0:10:40Not as much as I think I am a celebrity on campus.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43Robbie, that's a brilliant answer. I'm sure you are.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45Well, you are joint high scorers so we need a low score from you.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47What are you going to go for?

0:10:47 > 0:10:48I watched The King's Speech the other day

0:10:48 > 0:10:52and I'm pretty sure that's between the two Elizabeths,

0:10:52 > 0:10:55so I'm going to go Edward V.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58Oh, no! Can I change that?

0:10:58 > 0:11:00No, I'm afraid you can't.

0:11:02 > 0:11:06OK, you're going to go for Edward V. Edward V, says Robbie.

0:11:06 > 0:11:07Let's see if that's right

0:11:07 > 0:11:11and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Edward V.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Yeah.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20I'm afraid, what with Edward VI being wrong...

0:11:22 > 0:11:23Anyway, there you go.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26I'm afraid that scores you 100 points, Robbie.

0:11:26 > 0:11:30Yeah, I'm going to recommend no-one says Edward IV. That would be my tip.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32Sorry, Robbie. I don't feel so bad because when you said,

0:11:32 > 0:11:36"Can I change my mind?", the audience were going, "Oh, no. No, no.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39"You can't do that." They're very unforgiving.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43Thanks very much indeed.

0:11:43 > 0:11:47OK, now, Martin. I've got cracking news for you, Martin.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49You're through to the next round, no matter what you score.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52No more of this leaving at the end of round one nonsense.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55Martin, remind us what you like getting up to.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Well, I like travelling. I like photography. I like gardening.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01I like looking after puppies for guide dogs.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03- This is just the loveliest job. - It is.

0:12:03 > 0:12:07- It's just one long Andrex advert in your house, isn't it?- Yes.

0:12:07 > 0:12:13- Fantastic. Martin, how good's your history?- Reasonable. Yeah.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16- Do you think you can do better than John, is the question.- No.

0:12:16 > 0:12:21- Probably not but I'll go for George II.- George II.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24Nice random George to go to for. I like that.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26That's the one you're going to hide behind. George II.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28No red line for you. You're already through,

0:12:28 > 0:12:30but let's see how many people said George II.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34It's right.

0:12:38 > 0:12:3930.

0:12:39 > 0:12:44- Not at all bad. Takes your total up to 44.- Yeah, very well played.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46The last British monarchy to fight alongside his soldiers,

0:12:46 > 0:12:48at the age of 60.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52- Yeah.- Now, then, Liz.- Hello.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54- Welcome back.- Thank you.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57Now, we discovered last time that you run a bed-and-breakfast

0:12:57 > 0:13:01- up near Shrewsbury.- I do.- What do you do when you aren't doing that?

0:13:01 > 0:13:04That occupies pretty much all your time, I'd have thought.

0:13:04 > 0:13:10It does but I play tennis, so I play in a team for my local tennis club,

0:13:10 > 0:13:13- not very successfully.- Who takes their games more seriously?

0:13:13 > 0:13:17- Your mum with her bridge or you with your tennis.- Definitely Mum. Yeah.

0:13:17 > 0:13:21- Is that right? I don't believe that, Janet.- No.- Yes, so, tennis.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24So, tennis, and I have two small children

0:13:24 > 0:13:28- so I also spend most of my spare time with them.- Looking after them.

0:13:28 > 0:13:33OK, now, Liz, you have a target here, which is 99.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36You have to score less than 99.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38OK.

0:13:38 > 0:13:42I think I can do this. So I'm going to go for George V.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44George V. George V.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Let's see if that's right. There's your red line.

0:13:46 > 0:13:49Get below that and you are straight through to round two.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54It's absolutely right and through you go. Very well done.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56George V taking you down

0:13:56 > 0:13:58to 47. 147 your total.

0:14:00 > 0:14:04Very well played. 1910-1936.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07- Thanks very much. Now, Rob. - Hi, there.

0:14:07 > 0:14:11Rob, hello. Welcome. From Glasgow. What do you do, Rob?

0:14:11 > 0:14:15At the moment, I'm working customer service in an office.

0:14:15 > 0:14:16- On the phone?- Yeah, exactly.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19People nice, generally, on the telephone when they get through

0:14:19 > 0:14:21- to customer service or not? - I think so.

0:14:21 > 0:14:23I think people are generally better than we give them credit for.

0:14:23 > 0:14:27How long do people have to wait before they get to speak to you?

0:14:27 > 0:14:31That has varied wildly in every job that I've been in.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34Regardless of how long, are they always told

0:14:34 > 0:14:37- that you're experiencing a high volume of calls on that day?- Yes.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40Isn't that better than having to listen to a really annoying jingle,

0:14:40 > 0:14:42- you know?- Yeah. That's true. It's better than a jingle.

0:14:42 > 0:14:44Although, I'm perfectly happy to listen to "Brr-brr."

0:14:44 > 0:14:47- I'm very happy to hear that. - Me, too. I think that's fine.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50Most people in customer services in the UK are so delightful, genuinely,

0:14:50 > 0:14:53because it's what you have to do all day, every day.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56The mood swing between the moment where you've been waiting

0:14:56 > 0:14:58for 15 minutes and someone actually answering the phone

0:14:58 > 0:15:02is one of the greatest mood shifts in your entire life, isn't it?

0:15:02 > 0:15:05Because you're beyond furious, and there's someone lovely who goes,

0:15:05 > 0:15:08- "Hello, can I help you?" Oh, yeah - OK...- The sun comes out! It's true.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10Makes you forget the last 15 minutes.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13So that's how they get you, by having charming people.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Yeah, Rob, you with your charm!

0:15:16 > 0:15:19- Now then, Rob. It doesn't matter what you score.- Phew!

0:15:19 > 0:15:21It doesn't matter as far as Pointless is concerned.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24As far as we and Kirsten are concerned it matters a lot.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26- Yeah, of course. - What are you going to score, Rob?

0:15:26 > 0:15:29I'm not great with my royal family knowledge,

0:15:29 > 0:15:32so I'm going to have to dig into my pop culture knowledge

0:15:32 > 0:15:37and hope that this film and play didn't lead me astray,

0:15:37 > 0:15:41- and say King George III. - George III, says Rob. George III.

0:15:41 > 0:15:46Well, George II scored 30, let's see how George III does.

0:15:46 > 0:15:49No red line for you, obviously, you're already through.

0:15:52 > 0:15:53It's right.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59APPLAUSE

0:15:59 > 0:16:02There we are. 64 is your total.

0:16:02 > 0:16:03Another very good answer.

0:16:03 > 0:16:07Made very famous in these days by the film and the play.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10Let's take you through - there's no pointless answers at all, as you can imagine.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13William and Mary first, it's William III and Mary II,

0:16:13 > 0:16:17which would have scored you 19 and 18 points, respectively.

0:16:17 > 0:16:18No pointless answers,

0:16:18 > 0:16:20one very low-scorer - William IV would be the best answer.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22Well done if you said that, 8 points for that.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25And then Anne is actually the next best answer. Terrific answer.

0:16:25 > 0:16:29And there's two Edwards - Edward VII would have scored you 28,

0:16:29 > 0:16:33then Edward VIII would have scored you 16. 20 points for James II,

0:16:33 > 0:16:3624 for Charles II, 28 for Charles I.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Let's take a look at the top three scorers though...

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:16:50 > 0:16:53At the end of our first round, the pair who are heading home

0:16:53 > 0:16:55with our high score of 200, it's Robbie and Jamie,

0:16:55 > 0:16:57on the fourth podium there.

0:16:57 > 0:17:01Bad luck, Robbie - you were slightly caught there. I know what you meant.

0:17:01 > 0:17:03- I know what I meant. - I know what you meant.

0:17:03 > 0:17:07Baptism by fire into the world of Pointless, Robbie and Jamie.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09I have every confidence when you return next time

0:17:09 > 0:17:11you'll do much, much better. Hope so.

0:17:11 > 0:17:12It's been great having you on,

0:17:12 > 0:17:14thanks for playing, Robbie and Jamie.

0:17:14 > 0:17:15APPLAUSE

0:17:17 > 0:17:20But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.

0:17:20 > 0:17:21APPLAUSE

0:17:25 > 0:17:26Three pairs remain.

0:17:26 > 0:17:30At the end of this round we'll have to say goodbye to another pair.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32Well, John and Martin, back with a vengeance this time.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Not only our low-scoring team,

0:17:34 > 0:17:36but also our low-scoring individual there, John.

0:17:36 > 0:17:40Lovely, low score with Queen Anne. And then Rob and Kirsten, not bad.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43Identical scores. Look how well-matched you are. Perfect.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45Both on 32.

0:17:45 > 0:17:49It's just beautiful to watch. And Liz and Janet, phew!

0:17:49 > 0:17:52- Phew!- I know what you meant, William and Mary.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55On the chart that we had when I was little, it didn't say what his number was.

0:17:55 > 0:17:59It just said William and Mary, you're absolutely right, that's how I always think of him.

0:17:59 > 0:18:00Anyway, you made it. It's fine.

0:18:00 > 0:18:04Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two is...

0:18:06 > 0:18:09Film. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:18:09 > 0:18:10who's going to go second.

0:18:10 > 0:18:14And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18OK, and the question concerns...

0:18:22 > 0:18:25Comedy film trios. Richard.

0:18:25 > 0:18:29On each board we're going to show you six trios of characters from different comedy films,

0:18:29 > 0:18:32we need you to tell us the film in which they first appeared together, please.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35There'll be six on each board, 12 in all to have a go at, at home.

0:18:35 > 0:18:36Thanks very much indeed.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39We're looking for the films that featured these trios of characters,

0:18:39 > 0:18:42and here's our first broad of six. It reads like this...

0:19:06 > 0:19:08I'll read those all one last time...

0:19:24 > 0:19:26- Kirsten. - Yes.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30So, I know definitely three.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33One of which is one of my favourite films of all time.

0:19:33 > 0:19:34But I'm not going to go for that one.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37So, I'm going to go for Wayne Campbell,

0:19:37 > 0:19:40Garth Algar and Cassandra as Wayne's World.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42OK, Wayne's World, says Kirsten.

0:19:42 > 0:19:43Let's see if that's right,

0:19:43 > 0:19:46and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Wayne's World.

0:19:49 > 0:19:50It's right.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57- Look at that, 12! - APPLAUSE

0:19:59 > 0:20:0012 for Wayne's World.

0:20:00 > 0:20:02Well played, Kirsten.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04Very low budget, came from a Saturday Night Live sketch.

0:20:04 > 0:20:08Shot in 34 days, made hundreds of millions worldwide.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Thanks very much indeed. Now, Liz.

0:20:14 > 0:20:17OK. Not very confident on this.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19I did know Wayne's World though, so that's a shame.

0:20:19 > 0:20:23But I think Harry Burns, Sally Albright

0:20:23 > 0:20:26and Marie, I'm hoping it's When Harry Met Sally.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28When Harry Met Sally, says Liz.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.

0:20:33 > 0:20:34It is right.

0:20:38 > 0:20:42- Not bad, 22 for When Harry Met Sally. - APPLAUSE

0:20:42 > 0:20:45Was that the one you were thinking of, Kirsten?

0:20:45 > 0:20:48- No. I kind of know that one, but I haven't...- Not that one.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50I didn't think of that.

0:20:50 > 0:20:52One of those ones that sounds obvious once you say it,

0:20:52 > 0:20:56because there's Harry and Sally, but only 22.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58Thanks very much. John, this board is all yours.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01Could you talk us through it, and fill in all the blanks?

0:21:01 > 0:21:04- I could talk you through two of them.- That's good enough.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07- No, they're the top two.- Ah. - LAUGHTER

0:21:07 > 0:21:10It doesn't get good after this.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13The Nadia, Paul Finch and Stifler's Mom - I mean, I can't think of it.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe is Narnia, not Nadia,

0:21:16 > 0:21:19so that's no good. No, I don't know any of those.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22Second Christmas Carol for the bottom one.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25- You're going to say...? - A Second Christmas Carol.

0:21:25 > 0:21:26A Second Christmas Carol, says John.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29OK, well, let's see if that's right... Let's see if that's right.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36No. I'm sorry, a different Old Man Marley.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38That scores you 100 points. Sorry, John.

0:21:38 > 0:21:42It is a Christmas-themed film though, that one is Home Alone.

0:21:42 > 0:21:43Oh!

0:21:43 > 0:21:47Would have scored you 2 points as well, would have been a terrific answer.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Professor Marcus, One-Round and Mrs Wilberforce - a wonderful film,

0:21:50 > 0:21:53they did a stage play of it recently - it's The Ladykillers.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55- Oh, of course it is! - 4 points for that.

0:21:55 > 0:22:00- Nadia, Paul Finch and Stifler's Mom is...- American Pie.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03For 30 points - and a surprisingly low score for Veronica Corningstone,

0:22:03 > 0:22:06- Brian Fantana and Brick Tamland... - Is Anchorman.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09Anchorman: The Legend Of Ron Burgundy, 10 points for that.

0:22:09 > 0:22:12Thanks very much indeed. So, we're halfway through the round.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15Let's take a look at those scores. 12, Kirsten, very well done indeed.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Best score of the round so far.

0:22:17 > 0:22:1922 is where we find Liz and Janet.

0:22:19 > 0:22:20Then up to 100, John and Martin.

0:22:20 > 0:22:22Sorry, that was a tough board.

0:22:22 > 0:22:26However, Martin, you get first dibs on the new board, so make sure you find a nice, low score there.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Maybe it will be enough to keep you in the game.

0:22:28 > 0:22:32Back down the line now, can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:22:34 > 0:22:37Let's put six more trios of characters up on the board,

0:22:37 > 0:22:39and here they come. We've got...

0:23:00 > 0:23:02I'll read those all one last time...

0:23:21 > 0:23:25Now, Martin, remember - we're looking for the films that featured each of these trios of characters.

0:23:25 > 0:23:29You're going to try and find the lowest-scoring one you can on the board.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32Hmm. Yeah, I think this is the 200 Club coming up.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38I'm going to go with Sugar Kane, Joe and Jerry, 1959 -

0:23:38 > 0:23:39Gone With The Wind.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43- It's kind of a comedy. - LAUGHTER

0:23:43 > 0:23:46No red line for you, as you're the highest scorers.

0:23:46 > 0:23:51Let's see if that's right, and let's see how many people said Gone With The Wind.

0:23:53 > 0:23:54No. Sorry, Martin -

0:23:54 > 0:23:56I'm afraid an incorrect answer.

0:23:56 > 0:24:00- You're absolutely right, the 200 Club beckons.- Unlucky...

0:24:00 > 0:24:03I mean, it's a hilarious film, Gone With The Wind.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05It's one of the greats, isn't it?

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Rhett Butler doing all that hilarious stuff

0:24:10 > 0:24:13when he's got the plank on the back of his bike...

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Taking the piano upstairs!

0:24:15 > 0:24:18And Scarlet O'Hara's knocking on the door and he's like, "What?"

0:24:18 > 0:24:20And she's like boy-yoy-yoing!

0:24:20 > 0:24:23- Doy-yoy-yoing! - Oh, hilarious.- "Frankly, my dear..."

0:24:23 > 0:24:26And, of course, the famous scene that gives the title of the film,

0:24:26 > 0:24:29when they're all sitting around the campfire eating beans. That is, oh...

0:24:29 > 0:24:34- LAUGHTER That's pretty good. Oh! - That is good.

0:24:36 > 0:24:37Janet.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Listen, I've got good news for you.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42- You're going to be in the head-to-head.- I need it.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44There you are. How do you find the board?

0:24:44 > 0:24:47I don't know any of them, to be honest.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49OK, so it's going to be another guess.

0:24:49 > 0:24:54Well, I'll say King Arthur, Sir Lancelot the Brave and Patsy,

0:24:54 > 0:24:56as The Square Table.

0:24:57 > 0:25:02I like that! I like that, Janet.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05Let's see, The Square Table. Is that right?

0:25:08 > 0:25:10No. I'm sorry, Janet.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13Oh, it should have been though.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16122's your score, it doesn't matter, you're through anyhow.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Yeah, not The Square Table. I don't know what to add to that.

0:25:19 > 0:25:20LAUGHTER

0:25:20 > 0:25:22Now, Rob - talk us through the board.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25In the comfort that you're already through.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27It's actually...

0:25:27 > 0:25:29The last board I think I knew all of them,

0:25:29 > 0:25:31this one there's quite a few gaps.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33I don't know Anna Scott and co.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36King Arthur, Sir Lancelot the Brave and Patsy, I think must be

0:25:36 > 0:25:38Monty Python And The Holy Grail.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41Stu, Alan and Mr Chow, again, I don't know.

0:25:41 > 0:25:44Dante, Randal and Silent Bob is by my unfortunate doppelganger

0:25:44 > 0:25:47Kevin Smith, and the film's called Clerks.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49And I don't know Sugar Kane, Joe and Jerry,

0:25:49 > 0:25:51and the bottom one is, of course, Dumb And Dumber.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55So I think I will go with Clerks for Dante Hicks, Randal Graves

0:25:55 > 0:25:58- and Silent Bob.- Clerks, says Rob. Let's see if that's right.

0:25:58 > 0:26:02No red line, obviously, you're already through, but let's see how many people said Clerks.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06It's right.

0:26:06 > 0:26:10Well, 12's our lowest score so far, let's see if you can pass that.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13- Yes, you do, 7 for Clerks! Very well done indeed. - APPLAUSE

0:26:15 > 0:26:1719, your total.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20Very good answer. It's a lovely film that, actually.

0:26:20 > 0:26:25- You do have a slight look of Silent Bob about you, you are quite right. - I get it a lot.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28The top one, you didn't know, Anna Scott, William Thacker and Spike...

0:26:28 > 0:26:30- Notting Hill. - Notting Hill, yeah.- Oh!

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Rhys Ifans, of course, famously playing Spike there.

0:26:33 > 0:26:378 points for that. You're right about Monty Python And The Holy Grail.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39Would've scored you 11 points.

0:26:39 > 0:26:42This last one, a huge film franchise, been three of them now,

0:26:42 > 0:26:44it's The Hangover.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47- Of course, Mr Chow. - Would've scored 25.

0:26:47 > 0:26:49One of the greatest comedy films of all time now,

0:26:49 > 0:26:52Sugar Kane, Joe and Jerry - it's Some Like It Hot.

0:26:52 > 0:26:55- AUDIENCE:- Oh! - Only 4 points for that as well!

0:26:55 > 0:26:56Marilyn Monroe, of course, as Sugar Kane.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58And Harry Dunn - you're quite right -

0:26:58 > 0:27:01Lloyd Christmas and Mary Swanson was Dumb And Dumber.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Would have scored you 14. - Thanks very much indeed.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06At the end of our Second Round, the pair who are heading home

0:27:06 > 0:27:09with the highest score of 200, I'm afraid, is Martin and John.

0:27:09 > 0:27:14- I'm so sorry. It was Round One last time, you've done twice as well this time.- Thank you.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17But still, it's far too soon to be saying goodbye to you.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19Thanks so much for coming on the show. Martin and John.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22APPLAUSE

0:27:22 > 0:27:25But, for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for the head-to-head.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33Congratulations, Rob and Kirsten, Liz and Janet.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35You're now one step closer to the final

0:27:35 > 0:27:38and the chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands at...

0:27:38 > 0:27:40APPLAUSE

0:27:42 > 0:27:43Well done, Rob and Kirsten -

0:27:43 > 0:27:46your first appearance on Pointless, and you've come straight through

0:27:46 > 0:27:49to the head-to-head, where you are our low-scoring pair.

0:27:49 > 0:27:50Very good indeed.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53Well done, Liz and Janet, for surviving Rounds One and Two.

0:27:53 > 0:27:57We had a couple of dodgy moments back there, Round One AND Round Two,

0:27:57 > 0:28:00The Square Table, of course. Yeah, you survived The Square Table.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Nice inventiveness though, I did like that. You get points for that.

0:28:03 > 0:28:07Anyway, best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.

0:28:07 > 0:28:08APPLAUSE

0:28:12 > 0:28:15OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...

0:28:19 > 0:28:21Famous Franks and Franceses, Richard.

0:28:21 > 0:28:24We're going to show you five pictures now of famous Franks and Franceses,

0:28:24 > 0:28:27you need to tell us who the least famous Frank and Frances is.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29LAUGHTER

0:28:29 > 0:28:33That's good. Let's reveal our famous Franks and Franceses.

0:28:33 > 0:28:35And here they are, we have...

0:28:57 > 0:29:00There we are, five famous Franks and Franceses.

0:29:00 > 0:29:04Rob and Kirsten, you have been our best scorers so far,

0:29:04 > 0:29:07so you'll go first. Feel free to confer.

0:29:07 > 0:29:12- ROB:- OK, I'm going to go for B, Frances McDormand.- Yeah, cool.

0:29:12 > 0:29:14OK, I think we're going to go for B,

0:29:14 > 0:29:19an actress that I really admire, Frances McDormand.

0:29:19 > 0:29:22Frances McDormand, say Rob and Kirsten. Frances McDormand.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25Now, Liz and Janet, the board is all yours.

0:29:27 > 0:29:31- LIZ:- Well, we think that A is Francis Drake...

0:29:31 > 0:29:33Ah, no.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36OK, actually, I've just changed my mind on that one.

0:29:36 > 0:29:38C, we think is Frances de la Tour.

0:29:40 > 0:29:44D, I think, is Frances Barber.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46And E is Frank Sinatra.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48What happened with A? You've just withdrawn that, have you?

0:29:48 > 0:29:51Well, I've just realised, I don't think...

0:29:51 > 0:29:53He's not a Frank or a Frances.

0:29:53 > 0:29:55- Yeah, he is... - Oh, yes, he is. It's fine.

0:29:55 > 0:29:59- What, Frankie Drake? - LAUGHTER

0:29:59 > 0:30:00- Big Frank Drake? - Frank Drake!

0:30:00 > 0:30:02- Big Frank Drakie? - Frankie?

0:30:02 > 0:30:05Frankie, with the boat? Frankie with the boat?

0:30:05 > 0:30:07- Frankie with the Hinde? - Yeah.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12- OK. So which we going for? - Let's go for C, I think.

0:30:12 > 0:30:14- LIZ LAUGHS - Sorry.

0:30:15 > 0:30:17What're you going to go for?

0:30:17 > 0:30:19We're going to go for C, Frances de la Tour.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21Frances de la Tour, C, you're going to go for.

0:30:21 > 0:30:24So we have Frances McDormand, and we have Frances de la Tour.

0:30:24 > 0:30:26Rob and Kirsten said Frances McDormand.

0:30:26 > 0:30:29Let's see if that's right, let's see how may people said it.

0:30:31 > 0:30:32It's right.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41- That is a pointless answer! - APPLAUSE

0:30:41 > 0:30:44Very, very well done indeed, Rob and Kirsten!

0:30:44 > 0:30:49That adds £250 to today's jackpot, takes the total up to...

0:30:49 > 0:30:51It's scores you nothing,

0:30:51 > 0:30:54sets you up in a very good stead for this question.

0:30:54 > 0:30:57Liz and Janet, we're going to have a job beating that

0:30:57 > 0:30:59with Frances de la Tour, which is what you say for C.

0:30:59 > 0:31:02Let's see if that's right, let's see how far down the column you can get.

0:31:11 > 0:31:13APPLAUSE

0:31:15 > 0:31:1626.

0:31:16 > 0:31:18Which means, very well done, Rob and Kirsten,

0:31:18 > 0:31:21after one question you are up 1-0.

0:31:21 > 0:31:23Very good answer, very rare we get a pointless answer

0:31:23 > 0:31:25in the head-to-head, so terrifically well played.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27A, it is big Frank Drake.

0:31:27 > 0:31:29- LAUGHTER - Frankie!

0:31:29 > 0:31:31Frankie goes to everywhere, they used to call him.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34LAUGHTER

0:31:34 > 0:31:3647 points for that.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38Three wonderful actresses in the middle there.

0:31:38 > 0:31:41Frances McDormand, Frances de la Tour,

0:31:41 > 0:31:43and you're absolutely right about Frances Barber.

0:31:43 > 0:31:46- Brilliant score as well, actually, only 3 points.- Oh!

0:31:46 > 0:31:49Wouldn't have beaten 0 still, but would have made you look good,

0:31:49 > 0:31:52- wouldn't it?- Yeah. - But you knew it, so that's good.

0:31:52 > 0:31:53And E is, of course, Frank Sinatra.

0:31:53 > 0:31:57Quite a low score, I think, because of the age of the photograph, maybe.

0:31:57 > 0:31:5949 points for Frank Sinatra.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02Thanks very much indeed. So, here comes your second question.

0:32:02 > 0:32:04Now, Liz and Janet, you get to answer it first,

0:32:04 > 0:32:07but you have to win it to stay in the game, so best of luck.

0:32:07 > 0:32:08It concerns...

0:32:12 > 0:32:15Divisions of Geological Time, Richard.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18We're going to show you five terms for divisions of geological time,

0:32:18 > 0:32:21but we've removed alternate letters - can you fill in the gaps, please?

0:32:21 > 0:32:24OK, let's reveal our five divisions of geological time,

0:32:24 > 0:32:26and here they come. We've got...

0:32:40 > 0:32:41I'll read them again...

0:32:49 > 0:32:52Over to you, Liz and Janet.

0:32:52 > 0:32:54I don't know any of the ones...

0:32:58 > 0:33:03- I think we only really know one for sure.- Yeah.

0:33:03 > 0:33:06So, we'll have to go for the bottom one, Jurassic.

0:33:06 > 0:33:10OK, you're going to go for the Jurassic period at the bottom there.

0:33:10 > 0:33:13Now, Rob and Kirsten. Do you want to talk us through that board?

0:33:13 > 0:33:16- ROB:- I'd love to. - KIRSTEN:- We definitely know...

0:33:16 > 0:33:19We knew that one, I think we also know the third one down,

0:33:19 > 0:33:21we're going to go for Cretaceous.

0:33:21 > 0:33:24Cretaceous. Cretaceous.

0:33:24 > 0:33:26So, we have Jurassic and we have Cretaceous.

0:33:26 > 0:33:28Liz and Janet said Jurassic, let's see if that's right,

0:33:28 > 0:33:30let's see how many people said Jurassic.

0:33:32 > 0:33:35- Jurassic... Ooh! - AUDIENCE GROANS

0:33:35 > 0:33:3791 for Jurassic!

0:33:37 > 0:33:39Now, Rob and Kirsten have gone Cretaceous.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43Let's see if that's right and let's see how many people said Cretaceous.

0:33:46 > 0:33:48It's right and it wins you the point, look at that.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53- Still going down, 29 for Cretaceous. - APPLAUSE

0:33:55 > 0:33:57Which means, very well done, Rob and Kirsten,

0:33:57 > 0:34:00after only two questions you're straight through to the final, 2-0.

0:34:00 > 0:34:04Very well played. Let's fill in the gaps of some of these. The top one...

0:34:09 > 0:34:12The next one down looks terrifying with all the vowels next to each other. It's the...

0:34:17 > 0:34:20And the one at the bottom is the epoch we're living in now,

0:34:20 > 0:34:21it's the...

0:34:23 > 0:34:25Started 11.7 thousand years ago, and carries on today.

0:34:25 > 0:34:28At time of recording, we're living in the Holocene epoch.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30By the time this goes out, you never know.

0:34:30 > 0:34:32- LAUGHTER - Or on Challenge...

0:34:32 > 0:34:36We might be living in an epoch named after Harry Styles, or something.

0:34:38 > 0:34:41What'll mark the end of the Holocene epoch, I wonder?

0:34:41 > 0:34:45I thought it was going to be The Only Way Is Essex, but... LAUGHTER

0:34:46 > 0:34:48- We seem to have continued. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:34:48 > 0:34:52So, the leaving pair at the end of our head-to-head round, I'm afraid it's Liz and Janet.

0:34:52 > 0:34:55You've done much better this time, through to the head-to-head.

0:34:55 > 0:34:58Nothing wrong with any of your answers.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00- It's just Rob and Kirsten know everything!- They do.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02They know everything.

0:35:02 > 0:35:04Which means we have to say goodbye to you, Liz and Janet.

0:35:04 > 0:35:07But it's a real shame, thank you so much for playing, Liz and Janet.

0:35:07 > 0:35:09APPLAUSE

0:35:11 > 0:35:14But, for Rob and Kirsten, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:17 > 0:35:20Congratulations, Rob and Kirsten, you've seen off all the competition,

0:35:20 > 0:35:23- and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.- Yes!

0:35:29 > 0:35:33- Can't wait, so excited.- All we're here for.- Yeah, pretty much.

0:35:33 > 0:35:36You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,

0:35:36 > 0:35:39and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at...

0:35:39 > 0:35:41APPLAUSE

0:35:43 > 0:35:45Well, you've done very well.

0:35:45 > 0:35:47First Round, you were our second-lowest scorers,

0:35:47 > 0:35:50but you scored the same each, 32 each, which was nice.

0:35:50 > 0:35:53And after that you've just been low score, low score, low score.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56Then 2-0 in the head-to-head. I mean, that's quite rare,

0:35:56 > 0:35:58but 2-0 with a Pointless answer?

0:35:58 > 0:36:00I mean, they hardly ever happen!

0:36:00 > 0:36:03Anything in particular you'd like to see come up in this last round?

0:36:03 > 0:36:06We do like film, I like music as well, those are the things

0:36:06 > 0:36:10that I'm very geeky about. What would you like? You like...

0:36:10 > 0:36:13- Oh, God. Erm... Dog breeds? - Yeah. - LAUGHTER

0:36:13 > 0:36:15Well, as always, you get to choose your category

0:36:15 > 0:36:17from the four we put up on the board.

0:36:17 > 0:36:19So let's see what's up there,

0:36:19 > 0:36:22let's hope there's something up there you like the look of.

0:36:22 > 0:36:23Today's selection is...

0:36:30 > 0:36:35I did revise the Booker Prize, but I only know one of them. So, no.

0:36:35 > 0:36:38I think I speak for both of us when I say that we're going

0:36:38 > 0:36:42- to have a go with the little-known pop combo, the Beatles.- Yeah.

0:36:42 > 0:36:43The Beatles it is. Richard.

0:36:43 > 0:36:46Three very different questions here, very best of luck.

0:36:46 > 0:36:49We're looking for the name of any feature film made for cinema release

0:36:49 > 0:36:52for which George Harrison has received a credit as producer

0:36:52 > 0:36:53according to IMDB.

0:36:53 > 0:36:58We are looking for any tracks on the 2000 Beatles' album 1,

0:36:58 > 0:37:00any tracks on the original release of that album.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03Or any children of the four Beatles.

0:37:03 > 0:37:06So, any of the full names of any of the children of the Beatles,

0:37:06 > 0:37:08films produced by George Harrison or tracks on 1.

0:37:08 > 0:37:11You look very confident, very, very best of luck.

0:37:11 > 0:37:12OK, now, as always,

0:37:12 > 0:37:15you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17All you need to win the jackpot

0:37:17 > 0:37:20is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:37:20 > 0:37:22- Are you ready? - Yes.- Yes, I think so.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.

0:37:24 > 0:37:26There they are, your time starts now.

0:37:26 > 0:37:28OK, films produced by George - we've got

0:37:28 > 0:37:30Monty Python And The Holy Grail,

0:37:30 > 0:37:31but then we've got, like, Jabberwocky?

0:37:31 > 0:37:34- Is that actually a film?- Yeah.

0:37:34 > 0:37:35It's definitely a film,

0:37:35 > 0:37:36I'm pretty sure it's also

0:37:36 > 0:37:37produced by George,

0:37:37 > 0:37:39and I think also Time Bandits?

0:37:39 > 0:37:42- Those Terry Gilliam films?- Yeah, yeah, yeah - Terry Gilliam films.

0:37:42 > 0:37:45So I think Jabberwocky or Time Bandits might do quite well.

0:37:45 > 0:37:48Children of the Beatles, we've got Danny Harrison,

0:37:48 > 0:37:51- obviously, you've seen him play with Prince and stuff.- Yeah.

0:37:51 > 0:37:54- We've got...- Stella McCartney. - ..Sean Lennon, Stella McCartney.

0:37:54 > 0:37:57- Julian Lennon, obviously.- What's the other Paul McCartney, his son?

0:37:57 > 0:38:01- Oh, James McCartney?- Yeah, there's James McCartney as well.

0:38:01 > 0:38:05- You know, that might be a good shout, actually.- Go for that.- Erm...

0:38:05 > 0:38:07Tracks on the Beatles album 1,

0:38:07 > 0:38:09it's just all the number one hit singles.

0:38:09 > 0:38:11Do you think there's any kind of vague ones on there?

0:38:11 > 0:38:14I don't know what the rare ones on there would be. Erm...

0:38:16 > 0:38:17Ten seconds left.

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Do you want to just go for two films and one child?

0:38:20 > 0:38:21Yeah, let's do that then, OK?

0:38:21 > 0:38:26- I think you're right with James McCartney.- Really?- Yeah.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29OK, that's your time up, I now need your three answers.

0:38:29 > 0:38:32Children of the Beatles, we'll go for James McCartney.

0:38:32 > 0:38:33James McCartney.

0:38:33 > 0:38:35Films produced by George Harrison,

0:38:35 > 0:38:37we're going to go for Jabberwocky and Time Bandits.

0:38:37 > 0:38:40Jabberwocky and Time bandits.

0:38:40 > 0:38:43Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:43 > 0:38:44I think Jabberwocky.

0:38:44 > 0:38:46If it was actually produced by George Harrison.

0:38:46 > 0:38:50Jabberwocky, we'll put last. Least likely to be pointless?

0:38:50 > 0:38:54- Probably Time Bandits.- Yeah.- OK, The Time Bandits, we'll put first.

0:38:54 > 0:38:56OK, let's put those answers up on the board in that order then.

0:38:56 > 0:38:58And here they are. We've got...

0:39:02 > 0:39:03Well, good luck.

0:39:03 > 0:39:06Three very good answers up on the board there, let's hope

0:39:06 > 0:39:09at least one of them is pointless and can win the jackpot for you.

0:39:09 > 0:39:122,250 quid, not bad. Quite a nice thing to be taking home.

0:39:12 > 0:39:14What would you do with that, Rob?

0:39:14 > 0:39:17I think we'd like to have a nice holiday.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20It's actually been a while since we had a holiday together.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23We like going to summer music festivals in Europe,

0:39:23 > 0:39:26or even the states. Go to Coachella or something like that.

0:39:26 > 0:39:28Anything else you'd like to add to that, Kirsten?

0:39:28 > 0:39:31I think that sounds quite good. I might try and... I don't know.

0:39:31 > 0:39:33We need a new mattress for our bed!

0:39:33 > 0:39:35Which sounds really dodgy, actually.

0:39:35 > 0:39:38- But, no, it's just old. - It's pretty mundane.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40No, but, you know, if you get a REALLY nice mattress.

0:39:40 > 0:39:43- Super-thick, big, cushiony thing... - Every night would be a holiday.

0:39:43 > 0:39:45- Yeah! - What about that? - LAUGHTER

0:39:45 > 0:39:48OK, so your first answer was Time Bandits, your least confident answer.

0:39:48 > 0:39:51Let's find out if it's right, let's find out if it's pointless,

0:39:51 > 0:39:54if it's both of those things, you will leave here with £2,250.

0:39:54 > 0:39:56Let's see how many people said Time Bandits.

0:39:59 > 0:40:01It's right.

0:40:01 > 0:40:03Well, if this goes all the way down to 0,

0:40:03 > 0:40:06you will leave with that jackpot of £2,250.

0:40:06 > 0:40:09Time Bandits taking us down into single figures, down it goes,

0:40:09 > 0:40:11still going down, still going down!

0:40:11 > 0:40:13- You've done it! - APPLAUSE

0:40:16 > 0:40:17Wow!

0:40:17 > 0:40:20- That is impressive. - Oh, my God!

0:40:20 > 0:40:24- First shot, you're on target, look at that! Brilliant!- Thank you.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26Oh, my God.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31That is fantastic. Time Bandits was a pointless answer

0:40:31 > 0:40:35which means you go home with our jackpot of £2,250.

0:40:35 > 0:40:37APPLAUSE

0:40:40 > 0:40:41Oh, God.

0:40:43 > 0:40:47- I think a mattress AND a holiday, don't you? - LAUGHTER

0:40:47 > 0:40:50- We'll splash out, totally, yeah. - Very good indeed. Richard?

0:40:50 > 0:40:52How about that, well played, Rob and Kirsten.

0:40:52 > 0:40:53Time Bandits, a pointless answer.

0:40:53 > 0:40:56And it was the only pointless answer you had up there as well.

0:40:57 > 0:41:00James McCartney would have scored you 3 points.

0:41:00 > 0:41:03I think, Kirsten, you had a different opinion on which child you should go for.

0:41:03 > 0:41:06Yeah, I was thinking, like, Julian Lennon. I just thought of him...

0:41:06 > 0:41:09- I think you had another opinion. - I thought Danny Harrison.

0:41:09 > 0:41:13Yeah, if you'd gone for Danny Harrison, he was a pointless answer.

0:41:13 > 0:41:15That's my fault. That's my fault.

0:41:15 > 0:41:18- Hey...- I know!- You've won the money, it's OK! It's OK.

0:41:18 > 0:41:20Jabberwocky is an incorrect answer.

0:41:20 > 0:41:24He did lots of films with the Pythons, but he started the next year with Life Of Brian,

0:41:24 > 0:41:28that was the first time he hooked up with them. Jabberwocky was from the year before that.

0:41:28 > 0:41:31But lots of pointless answers in all the different categories here.

0:41:31 > 0:41:32Let's take a look...

0:41:39 > 0:41:40You could have had A Private Function,

0:41:40 > 0:41:43How To Get Ahead In Advertising, Privates On Parade,

0:41:43 > 0:41:45The Missionary, Time Bandits, of course - all sorts of answers.

0:41:45 > 0:41:48Now, the Beatles' 1 album, you steered clear of it,

0:41:48 > 0:41:50because you're not sure of a pointless answer on that.

0:41:50 > 0:41:52There's actually lots of pointless answers...

0:41:58 > 0:42:02There's a few more, so if you said any of these at home, you'd have won the jackpot.

0:42:02 > 0:42:06If you'd said Hello, Goodbye, I Feel Fine, Something - of course, another

0:42:06 > 0:42:09George Harrison connection there - The Ballad Of John And Yoko...

0:42:09 > 0:42:12- That's what we said... - Yeah, you said that.- Oh, did you? It would've been a great answer.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15The Long And Winding Road - also a pointless answer, weirdly -

0:42:15 > 0:42:17and We Can Work It Out. All of those pointless.

0:42:17 > 0:42:19Let's look at the children, only three answers here,

0:42:19 > 0:42:22so you did well if you got one of these at home...

0:42:28 > 0:42:30Biggest scorer there by a mile, Stella McCartney, 62.

0:42:30 > 0:42:33Julian Lennon and Sean Lennon both scored a lot.

0:42:33 > 0:42:34Mary McCartney scored a few as well.

0:42:34 > 0:42:38And Zak Starkey, also another musician, 4 points for him.

0:42:38 > 0:42:42Very, very well played. You've been absolutely brilliant throughout the whole show,

0:42:42 > 0:42:45- and you fully deserve that jackpot. Congratulations.- Thank you.

0:42:45 > 0:42:47- Thank you very much. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49Well, thanks once again to our winning players,

0:42:49 > 0:42:54- Rob and Kirsten, who go away with today's jackpot of £2,250. - APPLAUSE

0:42:57 > 0:43:01Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.

0:43:01 > 0:43:03- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.

0:43:03 > 0:43:05..and it's goodbye from me, goodbye.

0:43:05 > 0:43:07APPLAUSE
