0:00:12 > 0:00:14APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:25 > 0:00:28the show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Let's meet today's players.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35- And couple number one. - Hi, my name's Luke.
0:00:35 > 0:00:36This is my friend Ellie
0:00:36 > 0:00:39and we are students at the University of Warwick.
0:00:39 > 0:00:40Couple number two.
0:00:40 > 0:00:44Hello, I'm Judy, this is my friend Carole, and we're both from Kent.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Couple number three.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Hello, I'm Richard, this is my wife, Isobel,
0:00:48 > 0:00:50and we're both from Redditch in Worcestershire.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52- And finally, couple number four. - Hello.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54My name's Wayne, this is my daughter Laura,
0:00:54 > 0:00:56and we're from Reading in Berkshire.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58And these are today's contestants.
0:00:58 > 0:00:59APPLAUSE
0:01:01 > 0:01:04Thanks very much. We'll find out more about you throughout the show
0:01:04 > 0:01:06as it goes along, so that just leaves one more person for me
0:01:06 > 0:01:09to introduce. So smart, he's got every "ology" you can think of,
0:01:09 > 0:01:12including, quite worryingly, Scientology.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Hiya. Hi, everybody. Hiya.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- Afternoon to you.- And to you.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Now, our last show was a battle, for the first time ever,
0:01:22 > 0:01:26- head-to-head battle between Alexander and Richard.- Yes.- Wasn't it?
0:01:26 > 0:01:27Who triumphed?
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Well, by the fact that Richard is back, I think
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- we can probably work out who triumphed.- There we go.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36Alexander and Suzanne triumphed, didn't they? Did very, very well.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39I'm glad Richard is back. Hopefully Richard and Isobel can go all the way
0:01:39 > 0:01:43this time. They're our only returning pair, so three new pairs here today.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46The first round is not going to suit everybody today, I'm afraid.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49I aim to please usually, but occasionally, I can't help myself.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52- Will it suit Luke?- Might suit Luke. You never know. Difficult to tell.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54I didn't get an in-depth...
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Carole looks like the sort of person who would suit any round.
0:01:57 > 0:01:58You know what?
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Whatever came, if we had 15th century Etruscan pottery,
0:02:00 > 0:02:02I wouldn't worry about Carole.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04She's got it all covered, we know that for a fact.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Now, Suzanne and Alex won the jackpot last time,
0:02:09 > 0:02:12so today's jackpot starts off back at...
0:02:12 > 0:02:16There it is. Right. If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23So, into our first round, the round that maybe won't suit everyone.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25The only thing to remember throughout this round
0:02:25 > 0:02:28and indeed all rounds is that the pair with the highest
0:02:28 > 0:02:30score at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33You just have to make sure you're not in that pair.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35Our category for round one today...
0:02:38 > 0:02:42It's football. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:02:42 > 0:02:43who's going to go second?
0:02:44 > 0:02:47And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51OK. And the question concerns...
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Football Managers And Their Clubs. Richard.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00In a moment, we're going to show you a list of six names.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03We are looking for the name of any team that any of these men
0:03:03 > 0:03:06have managed or been head coach of up to August, 2013, please.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09So, any team that had been managed or head coached by any of the six
0:03:09 > 0:03:13people you're about to see up to August, 2013. Very best of luck.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15OK, so Richard has just said we're going to put six names
0:03:15 > 0:03:18on the board. We just need the name of any football club
0:03:18 > 0:03:20managed by one of these six people. Here they are.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31I'll read those all one last time.
0:03:36 > 0:03:41- Ellie. Welcome to Pointless. Here from Warwick University.- Yes.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45- What are you studying there, Ellie? - I study history.- How's it going?
0:03:45 > 0:03:48- All right, yeah.- What year are you in?- Last year, final year.- OK.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- Have you made plans for next year yet?- Yeah.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53I'm going to be doing teacher training to be a primary
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- school teacher.- Very good indeed. And what are your hobbies, Ellie?
0:03:56 > 0:04:01I really like music. That's probably biggest hobby. We try and...
0:04:01 > 0:04:03- Listening to or playing?- Erm...
0:04:03 > 0:04:07- Listening to and playing, poorly, a lot of the time.- What do you play?
0:04:07 > 0:04:11- Guitar and mainly singing. A little bit of piano. I dabble.- You dabble.
0:04:11 > 0:04:16- That's good. Now, Ellie. Football. - Mm.- Mm.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Yeah. I think...
0:04:19 > 0:04:22There are some obvious ones, but I think I'm going to steer clear
0:04:22 > 0:04:27and try and be a bit risky, because Steve Bruce, I think,
0:04:27 > 0:04:30managed a club quite close to where I live,
0:04:30 > 0:04:33and I think he lived quite close to where I live as well at home,
0:04:33 > 0:04:37so I'm going to go for Steve Bruce and say Birmingham City.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Birmingham City, says Ellie. Birmingham City.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46It's right. Well done, Ellie.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Nine for Birmingham City. Nice single figure score there, Ellie.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58- Very well done indeed. Gets the ball rolling nicely.- Well played, Ellie.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Good start on that first podium.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Came up the other day as a fact, Steve Bruce.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06- Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, Judy, welcome.- Hello.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Great to have you here from Kent. What do you do, Judy?
0:05:09 > 0:05:13I'm retired and I travel on the London Underground
0:05:13 > 0:05:18- with my friend Carole and we write books about it.- You travel round...
0:05:18 > 0:05:22- You look at all the stations... - We get off at every single station.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24We go and visit somewhere of interest.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28- Do you ever get asked to move on? - Oh, quite a lot!
0:05:28 > 0:05:31- And we got told off once very badly. - Why?
0:05:31 > 0:05:35Carole took a flash photograph in a lift shaft
0:05:35 > 0:05:39and you're not allowed to flash on the London Underground.
0:05:39 > 0:05:44- Now, Judy, does your fandom extend to football?- Not at all.- No.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48I haven't got a clue about one single answer there.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52OK. Well, there are six of them up there.
0:05:52 > 0:05:57- You could just throw a club and one might stick.- OK, um... Arsenal?
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Arsenal, says Judy. Let's see if that's right,
0:06:00 > 0:06:04and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Arsenal.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08It is right.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12- 62. - APPLAUSE
0:06:12 > 0:06:14It's a lot better than 100, Judy.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16- 62, not bad.- Yeah.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Also very suspiciously the name of a Tube stop as well.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20I might have known!
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Thanks very much indeed. Now, Isobel, welcome back.
0:06:23 > 0:06:24Head-to-head last time.
0:06:24 > 0:06:29Not just head-to-head, our lowest scoring pair into the head-to-head.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33- Isobel, remind us what you get up to.- I'm retired. I was a teacher.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35And what do you fill your retirement with?
0:06:35 > 0:06:39It's lovely now, I can read, I'm doing some family history research.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42I haven't yet hit a line that would take me
0:06:42 > 0:06:45back to William the Conqueror, but I'm working on it.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Keep digging! You'll find one!
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- How far have you gone back? - Early 1800s.- Not bad. Fun.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- And where geographically? - All over, yeah.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58My family, mainly the Midlands. Richard's Yorkshire.
0:06:58 > 0:06:59- So, yeah.- Very interesting.
0:06:59 > 0:07:03So, Isobel, what are you going to go for? Is football any good for you?
0:07:03 > 0:07:04No.
0:07:04 > 0:07:08- I'm sorry.- Um... Steve Bruce, Birmingham, I knew.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Um... I'm going to try him again, Hull. Hull City.
0:07:11 > 0:07:12Hull City, says Isobel.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said Hull City.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20It is right.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23Well, 62's our highest score. You've passed that comfortably.
0:07:23 > 0:07:259 is our low.
0:07:25 > 0:07:2613 for Hull.
0:07:26 > 0:07:27APPLAUSE
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- 13 for Hull.- Well played, Isobel.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Yeah, at time of recording, still called Hull City.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37There's a move to try and rename them the Hull Tigers,
0:07:37 > 0:07:39which the fans are quite rightly resisting.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42And they're the only team in the Football League who you can't
0:07:42 > 0:07:45colour in any of the letters of, while they're called Hull City. LAUGHTER
0:07:45 > 0:07:49- Can't do that.- And if they were called Hull Tigers, you could.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Wayne, welcome to Pointless.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Lovely to have you here, from Reading.- Thank you.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59- What do you do, Wayne? - I'm a part-time teacher at a tennis
0:07:59 > 0:08:02academy at the National Sport Centre at Bisham Abbey, Marlow.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04And then,
0:08:04 > 0:08:07I'm a part-time childminder for my granddaughter Melody.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11And then, I'm a part-time extra as well.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15Wow! That's a lot of "part-time"s there! How old's Melody?
0:08:15 > 0:08:17- Melody's 20 months.- Lovely.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20And extra work, where do you do that? Just all around?
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Anywhere that I can pick up. I'm not fussy.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25What's been the most fun thing you've been on?
0:08:25 > 0:08:29I think probably the most fun to do was Atlantis.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33Unfortunately, I don't know why, I seem to be typecast as a henchman.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36- I don't understand why. - You're a henchman, Wayne. You are.
0:08:36 > 0:08:41- Wayne, I look at you, I see henchman.- Good to be a hench-man.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44Definitely. And Wayne is "hench", I'm not denying that.
0:08:44 > 0:08:45LAUGHTER
0:08:45 > 0:08:49- There's no denying that. He is. - Blimey! Get a room!
0:08:49 > 0:08:51LAUGHTER
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Does "hench" mean something other than what I think it does?
0:08:54 > 0:08:56LAUGHTER
0:08:56 > 0:09:00- He's...- He's built.- Yeah, stacked. I didn't realise...- Hench.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03I know you like your guys hench.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06- I thought it was mild flirting, that's all.- OK, I see.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09I know the types you go for.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11LAUGHTER
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Now, Wayne...
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- What are you going to go for?- Um...
0:09:15 > 0:09:20- I think I will go for Sam Allardyce and Bolton.- Bolton, says Wayne.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21Let's see if Bolton's right,
0:09:21 > 0:09:24let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28It is right.
0:09:28 > 0:09:329 remains our low score so far, from Ellie there.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34- Bolton going down to 15. - APPLAUSE
0:09:36 > 0:09:38Very well done, Wayne.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41Yeah, took them to an FA Cup semifinal, got them promoted.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Left them due to a lack of ambition, that's what he said.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50Let's take a look at those scores. Ellie, supreme score there.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Look at that, 9. Very well done.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Then, up to 13, where we find Isobel and Richard.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Up to 15, where we find Wayne and Laura.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58And then, Judy and Carole, I'm so sorry, 62.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01We need a low score from you, Carole,
0:10:01 > 0:10:03or you're going to go down the Tubes(!)...
0:10:03 > 0:10:05- LAUGHTER - ..I'm afraid, at the end of this round.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Best of luck with that.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:13 > 0:10:16Laura, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- What do you do, Laura? - I'm a satellite scientist.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23A satellite scientist. Just tell me exactly what you do.
0:10:23 > 0:10:28Exactly what I do, I think you might need a physics PhD.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30- Tell me broadly what you do! - LAUGHTER
0:10:30 > 0:10:33I use satellite observations to better understand
0:10:33 > 0:10:36the composition of the atmosphere.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39- That's...good. - LAUGHTER
0:10:39 > 0:10:43We've had a colour scientist on not that long ago.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46You are our first satellite scientist.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50Anyway, Laura, welcome to the show. Great to have you here.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53You're on 15, the high scorers on 62 are Carole and Judy,
0:10:53 > 0:10:57so 46 or less comfortably sees you through.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- Is this a good round for you? - It's OK.
0:11:00 > 0:11:01I watch a lot of football.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04My husband watches an awful lot of football.
0:11:04 > 0:11:08- So I should know several answers on there.- Can I ask a quick question?
0:11:08 > 0:11:10- You can.- Are you the mother of Melody?
0:11:10 > 0:11:14- I am the mother of Melody, yes. - Congratulations.- Thank you.- Lovely.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17- She also watches a lot of football. - LAUGHTER
0:11:17 > 0:11:18Very good.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21I don't think I could go home to my Crystal Palace supporting
0:11:21 > 0:11:25husband and not say Ian Holloway, Crystal Palace.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Crystal Palace, says Laura. Here's your red line.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31If you can get below that with Crystal Palace,
0:11:31 > 0:11:33you are definitely in round two.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37It's right.
0:11:39 > 0:11:40You're in round two.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Very well done indeed.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44- 17. - APPLAUSE
0:11:44 > 0:11:4532, your total.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Great answer, Laura. Very well done.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Very strong on that last podium, aren't they?
0:11:52 > 0:11:55He left them after just one Premier League win.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58He was replaced by Tony Pulis.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02And he's a hilarious guy, Ian Holloway. Very, very funny man.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06- You would like him.- Thank you very much indeed... Is he hench?
0:12:06 > 0:12:08LAUGHTER Not so much.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10He's a former professional footballer, so he's got
0:12:10 > 0:12:14a basic level of fitness, but he's not hench like you like hench. LAUGHTER
0:12:14 > 0:12:18- You like a guy to be really cut, don't you? That's what you like.- Cut!
0:12:18 > 0:12:21- Yeah.- Yeah, yeah. - Very defined.- Yeah, yeah.
0:12:22 > 0:12:27- Richard, welcome back. - Thank you.- Welcome back.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29- Also a retired teacher.- Yeah.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33Remind us what you like doing in your retirement.
0:12:33 > 0:12:38- Well, I swim three times a week, a mile each time.- You swim?- Yeah.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- Where do you swim? Just in a pool?- In a...
0:12:40 > 0:12:42LAUGHTER
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Sorry, for some odd reason, when you said, "I swim three times
0:12:45 > 0:12:48"a week, a mile at a time," I was picturing you in a river.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51- I don't know why.- No, I'm a conventionalist. I swim in a pool.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55- OK.- The famous Redditch pool that's heated from the crematorium
0:12:55 > 0:12:58- next-door. - LAUGHTER
0:12:58 > 0:13:03There was a very famous text sent into Five Live when it was first
0:13:03 > 0:13:07mooted, and somebody said, "Won't all the races end in a dead heat?"
0:13:07 > 0:13:09LAUGHTER
0:13:09 > 0:13:14- I sing in a choir.- Very good. - The famous Bel Canto of Redditch.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Do you do that in a swimming pool or in a river? LAUGHTER
0:13:17 > 0:13:21- No...- It's hard to tell sometimes. - In a choir shed.
0:13:21 > 0:13:22Of course!
0:13:22 > 0:13:27- Um... The Bel Canto of Redditch. - The Bel Canto Singers of Redditch.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29How many of you are there in there?
0:13:29 > 0:13:3140-45?
0:13:31 > 0:13:33That's fun. And how long's it been going?
0:13:33 > 0:13:38Oh, longer than I've been a member, about 25 years, I think. But I'll probably be corrected on that.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40- And we're always welcoming new members.- Very good.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Particularly men.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45- Richard has a good voice, doesn't he? He'd be very good on radio.- He does.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48- Yeah, you're a bass, aren't you, Richard?- I'm a bass, yeah.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52- There you are, good.- Well done. - Yeah, that's good. Got that right.
0:13:52 > 0:13:53LAUGHTER
0:13:53 > 0:13:57Now, Richard, there you are. You're on 13. You have to score 48 or less.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Well, the third time he's been mentioned, I'm going
0:13:59 > 0:14:02to have to go for Steve Bruce because I know during his career,
0:14:02 > 0:14:07he managed the team that I support, and that's Huddersfield Town.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Huddersfield Town, says Richard. There's your red line.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Get below that, you're definitely in the next round.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Let's see how many people said Huddersfield Town.
0:14:17 > 0:14:18It's right.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23And you're through, well done.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Oh, it's a good answer, Richard. Look at that! Down to 3!
0:14:26 > 0:14:27CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
0:14:27 > 0:14:30The best answer of the round so far, takes your total up to 16.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32- Very well done.- Great answer, Richard.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34That fell very nicely, didn't it?
0:14:34 > 0:14:37For around about a year, around the millennium.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Carole, welcome.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- I love your jumper, Carole. - Thank you.- It's a flamingo.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48- There's a flamingo theme I'm spotting there.- Yes.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51There's a flamingo colouring to your hair. And pink trousers.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55I'm just saying this for people who might be watching in black and white, that's all.
0:14:55 > 0:15:00- LAUGHTER - Are you a fan of the flamingo, Carole?- I certainly am.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02I have a tattoo of one.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05LAUGHTER
0:15:05 > 0:15:09- Do I...? Where...? Where is your...? - LAUGHTER
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Do I ask that? Where, Carole?
0:15:12 > 0:15:16For my 50th birthday, I had it done on my left buttock.
0:15:16 > 0:15:17And no, I won't show you.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19No, it's OK.
0:15:19 > 0:15:20LAUGHTER
0:15:20 > 0:15:25That is...something. Goodness me. So, what do you do
0:15:25 > 0:15:29when you're not writing your books or getting tattooed with flamingos?
0:15:29 > 0:15:33I volunteer at the Citizens Advice Bureau two days a week.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36That's very good and are you working on another book?
0:15:36 > 0:15:38- Is there another Tube book coming up?- Yes.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41- What are you working on now?- It's the pink one, Hammersmith & City.
0:15:41 > 0:15:45Course it is! That's going to match, perfect.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49You're the high scorers, I'm afraid, on 62. We need a low score.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52I know a couple, but they'll be very well known.
0:15:52 > 0:15:58I could take a wild guess at something obscure. Um...
0:15:58 > 0:16:01But I'm just going to go with Sam and West Ham United.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03West Ham, says Carole. Let's see if that's right.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06No red line for you, I'm afraid, as you're the high scorers,
0:16:06 > 0:16:10but let's see how far down the column you get with West Ham.
0:16:11 > 0:16:12It's right.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19- 19. - APPLAUSE
0:16:19 > 0:16:22Not a bad score at all.
0:16:22 > 0:16:2381 is your total.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Yeah, Sam Allardyce, West Ham.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27They've all been British teams so far.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29All been English teams, in fact, so far.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31There's lots of other names on the list,
0:16:31 > 0:16:34but I'll go through them all in a minute.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Mm. You heard what he said, Luke.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38I saw that as a challenge.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41That was an Osman gauntlet being thrown down at your feet with
0:16:41 > 0:16:44- a clang. - Perhaps challenge accepted.- OK.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Before we go into that though, welcome.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49- Are you also in your third year? - Yeah, third and final year.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52- What are you reading? - English literature.- Going well?
0:16:52 > 0:16:55- It's going all right.- And have you got your plans sorted for next year?
0:16:55 > 0:17:01- For the summer? Have you got lovely things to look forward to? - I'm engaged, so I'm getting married.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04- Good Lord, Luke! Congratulations! - Thanks very much.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08That's wonderful news. And how long have you been going out?
0:17:08 > 0:17:11- Years and years? - Coming up to six years.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13That's suddenly very sweet!
0:17:13 > 0:17:18- So, childhood sweethearts then. - Mm, indeed, yeah.- Oh! Aw!- Fairytale.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Well, yes. It is.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23Now, what would complete the fairytale would be
0:17:23 > 0:17:26- a pointless answer.- Ooh! - Or just a really low scoring one.
0:17:26 > 0:17:303 is our lowest score so far with Huddersfield Town.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34I'm going to dip my toes into Europe, I think.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37And I'm going to say Monaco.
0:17:37 > 0:17:42Monaco, says Luke. There's your red line. Nice and high.
0:17:42 > 0:17:47I'm sure you'll get below that, but let's see how far down the column you can get with Monaco.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51It's right and you're through.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59And that scores you 1! Very, very well done indeed, Luke!
0:17:59 > 0:18:01- APPLAUSE AND CHEERING - Takes your total up to 10.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04I'm sorry it's not a pointless answer, but it's as good as.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08Obviously, early in the career of Arsene Wenger. Very well played.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12There's a couple of pointless answers actually. None of them are English clubs.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15You could have had another of Arsene's teams, AS Nancy,
0:18:15 > 0:18:18you could have had Benfica for Jose Mourinho.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Sam Allardyce, a terrific answer, Limerick.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24Would have been a very good answer for Sam Allardyce. Very well done if you said that.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27And another terrific answer for Jose Mourinho was Uniao de Leiria, which
0:18:27 > 0:18:32is another very small Portuguese team he managed early in his career. Very well done if you said that at home.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Also for Arsene Wenger, you'd have got 1 point for Grampas 8.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38For David Moyes, the best answer would have been Preston for 6.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41Everton would have got you 33, Manchester United 47.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45Ian Holloway, the best answers were Plymouth and Leicester. Both would have scored you 1 point.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49You'd have got 2 for QPR and 4 for Bristol Rovers.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Ian Holloway and Sam Allardyce both managed Blackpool.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Would have scored you 12 points.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57And Steve Bruce, Sheffield United for 1 was actually the best answer,
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- but then Huddersfield Town, the next best.- Thanks very much.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03At the end of our first round, the pair who are heading home
0:19:03 > 0:19:08with a high score of 81, I'm so sorry, Carole and Judy, it is you.
0:19:08 > 0:19:14However, we will see you again next time. Carole and Judy, thanks for playing. Lovely contestants.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16APPLAUSE
0:19:16 > 0:19:19But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21APPLAUSE
0:19:23 > 0:19:27And so three pairs remain. At the end of this round, we will have to say goodbye to
0:19:27 > 0:19:30another pair in time for our head-to-head round. Congratulations.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34You made it through that round that might not have suited everyone.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37But particular congratulations to the nearest podium, Luke,
0:19:37 > 0:19:42for the lowest individual score, together for the lowest total score. And Luke, for getting married.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44So, very well done indeed. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:19:44 > 0:19:49Our category for round two is:
0:19:49 > 0:19:50Cinema.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second?
0:19:54 > 0:19:57And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02OK, and the question concerns:
0:20:05 > 0:20:10- Films Featuring Time Travel, Richard.- We're going to show you some pairs of actors now.
0:20:10 > 0:20:14We need you to tells us the name of the film that they starred in that features time travel, please.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17There's going to be six on each pass, so 12 in all to have a go at at home.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21OK, so let's reveal our first board of six pairs of actors. And here they come:
0:20:38 > 0:20:40I'll read those all one last time.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53There we are. Ellie.
0:20:53 > 0:20:54- Sure. Um...- Ellie.
0:20:54 > 0:20:59There are a few on there that...I recognise, but I probably couldn't name.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02There's one that I think is quite an obvious one.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05I think I'm going to go for the one at the bottom
0:21:05 > 0:21:07cos it was on TV the other week.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09It wasn't very good.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock,
0:21:11 > 0:21:13I think it's The Lake House.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16- The Lake House.- Mm. - OK, let's see if that's right
0:21:16 > 0:21:20and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said The Lake House.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Very well done indeed, Ellie!
0:21:30 > 0:21:32That's a great score! 7 for The Lake House.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34APPLAUSE
0:21:34 > 0:21:37Interesting, Ellie saying there Keanu Reeves in a not very
0:21:37 > 0:21:40- good film. - That's odd, isn't it?- Yeah, very odd.
0:21:40 > 0:21:44Although, a bad time travel film is better than a bad any other film.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46- Time travel films are always good. - Yeah.- That one...
0:21:46 > 0:21:49He and Sandra Bullock, they both stay in the same lake
0:21:49 > 0:21:54- house at different periods of time but they correspond with each other. - It's like a time-share.- Yes!
0:21:54 > 0:21:56- It's like a time travel share. - Yeah. OK.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59They leave letters in the mail box for each other.
0:21:59 > 0:22:04- Imagine if that happened!- Ho-ho! - That'd be weird!- Wouldn't it?
0:22:04 > 0:22:06- Yeah.- Wouldn't it...
0:22:06 > 0:22:10Richard, what are you going to go for?
0:22:10 > 0:22:13I think there's only one I can really go. And even then,
0:22:13 > 0:22:16I'm not entirely sure, but I'm going to go for the one above it, Charlton
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Heston and Roddy McDowall...
0:22:18 > 0:22:20and say Planet Of The Apes.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Planet Of The Apes, says Richard.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said that.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28It's right.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31Well, seven is our best score so far.
0:22:31 > 0:22:32Planet Of The Apes is 33.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35APPLAUSE
0:22:35 > 0:22:38Yeah, Charlton Heston plays an astronaut
0:22:38 > 0:22:41and Roddy McDowall plays a monkey historian.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45- Mm.- Imagine if that happened! - Oh, wow!- That'd be weird!
0:22:45 > 0:22:48- That'd be weird!- That'd be SO weird! - Monkey historians.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51- Yeah, monkey historian. Not a historian of monkeys.- Nope.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55- Which is a job.- Historian monkey. - That's a monkeyologist.
0:22:55 > 0:23:00But an actual monkey who is a historian.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04- I know.- Ha!- Imagine!- That'd be crazy! - Imagine if it happened!
0:23:04 > 0:23:07- Yeah. Oh!- Oh!- Wayne, this board's all yours.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Do you want to talk us through it and fill in the blanks?
0:23:10 > 0:23:14I'm having awful trouble. Um... I knew the second to last one and I have to be honest, that was
0:23:14 > 0:23:18the only one I knew and I just had to hope that it was left alone.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20But it wasn't to be so.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23So the only thing I can really think of doing is just having
0:23:23 > 0:23:28a bit of a punt and I'm going for um...Rachel McAdams
0:23:28 > 0:23:30and Eric Bana in...
0:23:30 > 0:23:33The Time Traveller's Wife.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36The Time Traveller's Wife, says Wayne. Let's see if that's right...
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Let's just see if it's right.
0:23:41 > 0:23:42It is right!
0:23:46 > 0:23:47It IS right!
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Time Traveller's Wife scores you 20.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51APPLAUSE
0:23:51 > 0:23:52What about that!
0:23:55 > 0:23:58That's a great answer, Wayne. Very well played. You look relieved.
0:23:58 > 0:24:03- Amazed, I think.- Eric Bana has a genetic condition which allows him
0:24:03 > 0:24:07to travel through time and he meets Rachel McAdams at various different points of her life.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10- Imagine if that happened!- Wow!
0:24:10 > 0:24:13- Yeah.- That'd be amazing! - Wouldn't it?- It's based on fact.
0:24:13 > 0:24:17- People can do it. - Can do what?- Time travel.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21- But can they, Richard? Yeah?- Mm, yep.
0:24:21 > 0:24:25- You would always affect previous time by going back.- I wouldn't.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- Wouldn't you?- No. - You'd leave no footprint?
0:24:28 > 0:24:32- Well, I kind of would, but it's like you tidy up after a party, isn't it? - That's true.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35So your mum doesn't know. That's what you do with time travel.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39I suppose that's right. There's a sort of rule amongst time...
0:24:39 > 0:24:43Have you and Laura been time travelling?
0:24:43 > 0:24:45I will say to you this, and Laura would say the same -
0:24:45 > 0:24:49if you are a time traveller, you're not allowed to say you are.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53- What's the most exciting place you've been to?- Place?! Or year?
0:24:53 > 0:24:56- Oh, yeah. - That would be my question.- Yeah.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58What's the most exciting year, then?
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Funnily enough, I went to Redditch baths in... LAUGHTER
0:25:01 > 0:25:05- ..2070. That was quite something. - Was the Bel Canto Choir still going?
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Oh, yeah, yeah.
0:25:07 > 0:25:08Loads of men in it.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Yeah.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13Let's take a look at the rest of this board.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16Robin Williams and Kirsten Dunst was Jumanji.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20Would have scored you 25. Mike Myers and Beyonce Knowles was...
0:25:20 > 0:25:23- Goldmember.- Austin Powers In Goldmember. 5 points.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26And Aston Kutcher and Amy Smart was The Butterfly Effect.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29That would have scored you 11. I though that was a tough board.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32It is tough. Thank you very much indeed.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35We're halfway through the round, let's take a look at those scores.
0:25:35 > 0:25:377, Ellie and Luke once again looking very strong
0:25:37 > 0:25:38at this stage of the game.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41Then up to 20, where we find Wayne and Laura.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Then up to 33, Richard and Isobel. Unaccustomed position for them.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46Out at the front with the high score.
0:25:46 > 0:25:47Isobel, we need a low score from you.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50Let's hope it's a kinder board next time round.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:25:55 > 0:25:57OK, let's put six more pairs of actors up on the board
0:25:57 > 0:25:59and here they are:
0:26:14 > 0:26:16I'll read those all again.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30Now, Laura, over to you. Remember, we're looking for the name of the time travel film
0:26:30 > 0:26:33that starred each of these pairs of actors.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37I think I could probably have a guess at about three of them.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40The previous board would have been a lot better. Um...
0:26:40 > 0:26:44- I'm going to take a punt...- Good.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47I think... Oh, Sean Connery and John Cleese...
0:26:49 > 0:26:53- Time Bandits?- Time Bandits, says Laura. There's your red line.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55Get below that with Time Bandits
0:26:55 > 0:27:01and you are definitely in the head-to-head. Let's see how many people said Time Bandits.
0:27:01 > 0:27:02It's right.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10And it gets you through. Look at that. 11, that scores you 31.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13- APPLAUSE - You are in the head-to-head.
0:27:13 > 0:27:18Yeah, another very good answer. Written by Michael Palin and Terry Gilliam.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21Now, Isobel, you're the high scorers.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24- We need a very low score from you. - I know the Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell,
0:27:24 > 0:27:28but I think that might be fairly high. I'm going to take a punt on Rod Taylor
0:27:28 > 0:27:30and Alan Young, The Time Machine.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33The Time Machine, Rod Taylor and Alan Young. Let's see if that's right
0:27:33 > 0:27:36and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40No red line for you, as you're the high scorers.
0:27:40 > 0:27:41It's a good punt.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46We want this to go as far down as it possibly can.
0:27:46 > 0:27:4720.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49APPLAUSE
0:27:49 > 0:27:5153 is your total.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Well played, Isobel.
0:27:53 > 0:27:57Might have kept yourself in it. Yeah, Rod Taylor travels 800,000 years into the future.
0:27:57 > 0:28:02- That's too many.- It is too many. Travel a year into the future. - Yeah, much better.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06Now, Luke, we need a score of 45 or less from you.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08I'm going to have to play it safe.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11It's a risky safe, doesn't make sense, but we'll go with that.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14I'm going to say Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell, Groundhog Day.
0:28:14 > 0:28:18Groundhog Day. What are you going to go for, Luke?
0:28:18 > 0:28:20- Groundhog Day. - LAUGHTER
0:28:20 > 0:28:23I'm so sorry. There we are. There's your red line.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26If you get below that, you are through to the next round.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30Well, it's right.
0:28:32 > 0:28:33You've done it!
0:28:33 > 0:28:34Very well done indeed! 32, you score.
0:28:34 > 0:28:35APPLAUSE
0:28:35 > 0:28:3839, your total. Through you go to the head-to-head.
0:28:38 > 0:28:43- Very well done, Luke and Ellie. - Well played, Luke. Yeah, wonderful film, Groundhog Day.
0:28:43 > 0:28:48Another wonderful film at the top there, James Stewart and Donna Reed, It's A Wonderful Life.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50Would have scored you 14 points.
0:28:52 > 0:28:57Kathleen Turner and Nicolas Cage is Peggy Sue Got Married.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00Would have scored 6. And Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto, of course, is...
0:29:00 > 0:29:02- Star Trek.- Star Trek, yeah. Would have scored 18,
0:29:02 > 0:29:06so the best answer on the board is Peggy Sue Got Married. Well done if you said that.
0:29:06 > 0:29:10Thanks, so at the end of round two, the pair who are heading home,
0:29:10 > 0:29:13our low scoring head-to-headers last time, but Isobel and Richard,
0:29:13 > 0:29:14we have to say goodbye to you.
0:29:14 > 0:29:19Far too soon. I thought there was a place for you in the final today.
0:29:19 > 0:29:22But I'm afraid our categories had other ideas.
0:29:22 > 0:29:26Lovely to have you on the show. Thank you for playing, Isobel and Richard. Great contestants.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29APPLAUSE
0:29:29 > 0:29:32But for Wayne and Laura, Luke and Ellie,
0:29:32 > 0:29:35- it's now time for our head-to-head. - APPLAUSE
0:29:37 > 0:29:41Congratulations, Luke and Ellie, Wayne and Laura.
0:29:41 > 0:29:42You're now one step closer to the final
0:29:42 > 0:29:46and a chance to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at:
0:29:46 > 0:29:48Well, very well done.
0:29:48 > 0:29:52You've seen off our only returning pair, and they were good!
0:29:52 > 0:29:54Oh, and you just dispatched them just like that.
0:29:54 > 0:29:57You heartless beings! Best of luck to both pairs.
0:29:57 > 0:30:01- Let's play the head-to-head. - APPLAUSE
0:30:04 > 0:30:08OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns:
0:30:11 > 0:30:16- American National Parks, Richard. - Going to show you images now of five American national parks
0:30:16 > 0:30:19and their initials. Can you tell us what they are, please?
0:30:19 > 0:30:24OK, let's reveal our five national parks, and here they come. We have got:
0:30:45 > 0:30:46OK, there we are.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48Five national parks.
0:30:48 > 0:30:52Luke and Ellie, you've been our low scorers so far, so you will go first.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54THEY CONFER QUIETLY
0:30:56 > 0:30:59We're not too sure, but we're going to go for one that we're
0:30:59 > 0:31:04pretty sure of, so we're going to go for A and Yosemite.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06Yosemite, say Luke and Ellie. Yosemite.
0:31:06 > 0:31:10Wayne and Laura, the board's all yours. Do you want to talk us through it?
0:31:10 > 0:31:14I think B is Everglades.
0:31:14 > 0:31:15I don't know about C.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18D I think is probably something like Redwood.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22And E is the Grand Canyon.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25So I think we're going to go for B.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27B, Everglades.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29B, Everglades, say Wayne and Laura.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31So we have Yosemite versus Everglades.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34Luke and Ellie have gone for Yosemite.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 said it.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40It is right.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46- 49. - APPLAUSE
0:31:46 > 0:31:48That could have gone down a little bit lower,
0:31:48 > 0:31:50but 49 could be good enough.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53Wayne and Laura have gone for Everglades for B.
0:31:53 > 0:31:57Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said Everglades.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02It's right.
0:32:02 > 0:32:03And it wins you the point. Look at that.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05Very well done indeed. 36.
0:32:05 > 0:32:08- APPLAUSE - Wayne and Laura, you've nicked it.
0:32:08 > 0:32:11- After one question, you are up 1-nil.- Well played, Wayne and Laura.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13You'd have got even fewer points if you had gone for Redwood.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16Would have been more of a risk, but it's a right answer.
0:32:16 > 0:32:20And that would have scored you 19 points.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24Now C is the best answer up there.
0:32:24 > 0:32:25It's in South Dakota,
0:32:25 > 0:32:27that's the Badlands.
0:32:27 > 0:32:28Would have scored you 7 points.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30Very well done if you said that.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32And E of course is the Grand Canyon,
0:32:32 > 0:32:35but a big scorer with 82.
0:32:35 > 0:32:36Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:32:36 > 0:32:42OK, so here comes your second question. And it concerns:
0:32:45 > 0:32:48- Bob Dylan Songs, Richard. - We're going to give you five titles of songs from
0:32:48 > 0:32:49The Very Best Of Bob Dylan here,
0:32:49 > 0:32:51but we've left one word out of each of them.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53Can you tell us what that word is?
0:32:53 > 0:32:57OK, let's reveal our five Bob Dylan songs and here they come.
0:32:57 > 0:32:58We have got:
0:33:07 > 0:33:08I'll read those all again.
0:33:15 > 0:33:17Wayne and Laura, you will go first.
0:33:17 > 0:33:18THEY CONFER QUIETLY
0:33:24 > 0:33:29- Shall we risk it?- Yeah, if it rings a bell.- I think so, yeah.
0:33:29 > 0:33:30We're going to take a risk.
0:33:30 > 0:33:35I think the second from bottom one is Subterranean Homesick Blues.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37Subterranean Homesick Blues, say Wayne and Laura.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40OK, Luke and Ellie, it's over to you.
0:33:40 > 0:33:41We've drawn a blank, I'm afraid.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44Obviously, we know the third one down,
0:33:44 > 0:33:48we think that's Times They Are A-Changin', but we're going
0:33:48 > 0:33:52to go for a punt on the bottom one and just say Lay Layla Lay.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54Lay Layla Lay. Lay Layla Lay, OK.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57So, we have Subterranean Homesick Blues verses Lay Layla Lay.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00Wayne and Laura went Subterranean Homesick Blues.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:34:09 > 0:34:10That's a good answer! Look at that!
0:34:10 > 0:34:12Down to 14, Subterranean Homesick Blues.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14Well done, Wayne at Laura.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17- A punt worth taking there. - APPLAUSE
0:34:17 > 0:34:20Luke and Ellie, meanwhile, have gone for Lay Layla Lay.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said that.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28Bad luck, Luke.
0:34:28 > 0:34:32well, brave of you to take a punt on that, but it didn't pay off.
0:34:32 > 0:34:33Very well done, Wayne and Laura.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36After only two questions, you're straight through to the final 2-nil.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40Yeah, well played. There's only one answer that would have beaten
0:34:40 > 0:34:44Subterranean Homesick Blues and it's not the top one. The top one is Just Like A Woman.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46Would have scored you 23 points.
0:34:46 > 0:34:50The next one is the best answer up there, Tangled Up In Blue.
0:34:50 > 0:34:537 points for that. It's The Times They Are A-Changin'.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56no point going for it, as you suspected. 80 points.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59And Lay Layla Lay, which sounds like a perfect Eurovision song,
0:34:59 > 0:35:03is not a million miles from the answer. It's Lay Lady Lay. Would have scored you 54 points.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08Thanks very much indeed, Richard. So, the pair leaving us at the end
0:35:08 > 0:35:12of the head-to-head round, I'm afraid, Luke and Ellie.
0:35:12 > 0:35:16You've been so good the whole way through the show and then just
0:35:16 > 0:35:20when it mattered, you came up against Wayne and Laura,
0:35:20 > 0:35:23who knew Everglades. Anyway, we get to see you again next time.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26Meantime, thanks very much indeed, Luke and Ellie.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28APPLAUSE
0:35:31 > 0:35:35But for Wayne and Laura, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:35 > 0:35:38APPLAUSE
0:35:38 > 0:35:41Congratulations, Wayne and Laura. You've seen off all the competition
0:35:41 > 0:35:44and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:52 > 0:35:55and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,000.
0:35:55 > 0:36:01There it is. Well done. Your first appearance on Pointless and straight through to the final.
0:36:01 > 0:36:042-nil in the head-to-head. Very best of luck.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07Anything you'd particularly like to see come up in this last round?
0:36:07 > 0:36:12- Cricket?- Maybe, yeah. Children I've taught would be a good one.
0:36:12 > 0:36:16OK. As always, you get to choose your category from the four we put up on the board.
0:36:16 > 0:36:20Let's hope there's something up there you like the look of. Today's selection is:
0:36:27 > 0:36:31I think it's probably between Golf and the Actors And Actresses.
0:36:31 > 0:36:34And that will be something like Holly Hunter films, kind of...
0:36:34 > 0:36:36Golf, we could have a go at.
0:36:36 > 0:36:41It'll be Masters winners or Ryder Cup perhaps.
0:36:41 > 0:36:46- Let's do golf cos then we can both have a go.- Yeah.- OK.- Golf, please.
0:36:46 > 0:36:50- Golf it is. Richard.- OK, good luck. Three very different questions here.
0:36:50 > 0:36:55We're looking for the name of any man who has been world ranked number one since June 1997, which is
0:36:55 > 0:37:00when Tiger Woods was first ranked world number one, so anyone other than Tiger Woods who has been
0:37:00 > 0:37:04world ranked number one since then. We're looking for the name of any of the Solheim Cup
0:37:04 > 0:37:07players from 2013, either European or US.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09Or we're looking for the name
0:37:09 > 0:37:12of any European course that's staged a Ryder Cup since 1929.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14So, number one players since June 1997,
0:37:14 > 0:37:17Solheim Cup team members from 2013,
0:37:17 > 0:37:20and any European Ryder Cup course since 1929.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23And that top one, that is up until the end of March this year.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26- Very best of luck.- OK, thanks.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29As ever, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers and
0:37:29 > 0:37:33all you need to win that jackpot is for just one answer to be pointless.
0:37:33 > 0:37:37- Are you ready?- Yes.- Yes.- Let's put your 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:37 > 0:37:40There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42- I don't know any Ryder Cup courses. - No.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45- Is the Solheim Cup the ladies? - Female. So, we're struggling.
0:37:45 > 0:37:48Top one. Who is the Aussie player? Adam Scott.
0:37:48 > 0:37:52- Adam Scott was maybe one. - Justin Rose will have been...
0:37:52 > 0:37:55- Brandt Snedeker. Martin Kaymer? - Martin Kaymer, yeah,
0:37:55 > 0:37:58is one cos he won the Masters or something like that.
0:37:58 > 0:37:59Matt Kuchar?
0:37:59 > 0:38:03Has Kuch won anything that would warrant him being number one?
0:38:03 > 0:38:07- Big Phil.- Number one players, it's an accumulation of points.- Yeah.
0:38:07 > 0:38:10- Phil Mickelson. Yeah.- Phil Mickelson, we can only assume...
0:38:10 > 0:38:14- I think we need to go for Americans, rather than...- Do you think Adam Scott would be one,
0:38:14 > 0:38:17- or do you think people would know...?- I think Lee Westwood has...
0:38:17 > 0:38:20- Has he?- He was number one at one stage, but he's English.
0:38:20 > 0:38:24- Someone will have just said Lee Westwood.- Yeah. I think we need to go for Americans.
0:38:24 > 0:38:27Maybe have a punt at some of the lesser known ones.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30- I don't... I can't think of any Americans...- Ten seconds left.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32So, it's the ones that we've chosen...
0:38:32 > 0:38:35- Which are the ones you want to go for?- Snedeker?
0:38:35 > 0:38:39- Brandt Snedeker, but I don't know... - He's not won anything.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42- So what were the Americans? - That is your time up. I now need your three answers.
0:38:42 > 0:38:45If you could say which category you're answering in, that'd be great.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48I think we're going to go for three players from the top one cos
0:38:48 > 0:38:51we're a bit ignorant about the bottom two, unfortunately.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54- Definitely Adam Scott. - Adam Scott.- Adam Scott.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56- Martin Kaymer.- Martin Kaymer.
0:38:56 > 0:38:59- And Matt Kuchar?- Yeah. - And Matt Kuchar.
0:38:59 > 0:39:03Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer here?
0:39:03 > 0:39:04I think Kaymer's right.
0:39:04 > 0:39:09- OK.- Martin Kaymer, we'll put last. Least likely to be pointless?- Kuch?
0:39:09 > 0:39:14- Kaymer.- No, Kaymer's last. - All right, Kuch then.- Yeah.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15OK, Matt Kuchar, we'll put first.
0:39:15 > 0:39:20OK, let's put those answers up on the board in that order and here they are. We've got:
0:39:24 > 0:39:27Well, best of luck. Your first answer was Matt Kuchar.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30This is the one you thought was probably least likely to be
0:39:30 > 0:39:34pointless. Only one of them has to be pointless for you to win £1,000.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37It's our starter jackpot. Still, nice to be taking home with you.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40What would you do if you won that money, Wayne?
0:39:40 > 0:39:43Well, I know that Laura's just started a family,
0:39:43 > 0:39:46she's doing up the house, she's got lots of things that...
0:39:46 > 0:39:49She needs bills paying, mortgage etc.
0:39:49 > 0:39:53So, with my share, I would buy part of a racehorse.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56LAUGHTER
0:39:59 > 0:40:04- Laura?- Um... I would buy a selection of new joke books for my father.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07- LAUGHTER - Very good. So, Matt Kuchar.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10In this case, we're looking for number one players since 2007.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Let's see if it's right, let's see if it's pointless.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16For £1,000, how many people said Matt Kuchar?
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Not Matt Kuchar.
0:40:22 > 0:40:26Not a pointless answer, which means we only have two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28Your second answer was Adam Scott.
0:40:28 > 0:40:31Again, we're looking for number one players since 1997.
0:40:31 > 0:40:35Let's find out, for £1,000, how many people said Adam Scott.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41Oh, no!
0:40:41 > 0:40:44Another incorrect answer, which means everything is now
0:40:44 > 0:40:47riding on your third and final answer, which is Martin Kaymer.
0:40:47 > 0:40:51Now, how confident are you feeling at this stage?
0:40:51 > 0:40:54I know he definitely won at least one Major. So...
0:40:54 > 0:40:56But so did Adam Scott.
0:40:56 > 0:41:00OK. Well, fingers crossed. It has to be right, obviously. Then, it has to be pointless.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04For £1,000, let's see if Martin Kaymer is right. Is it pointless?
0:41:07 > 0:41:09It's right.
0:41:09 > 0:41:12Your first answer, Matt Kuchar, was incorrect.
0:41:12 > 0:41:14Your second answer, Adam Scott, was incorrect.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17Martin Kaymer, though, right on the money. Down it goes.
0:41:17 > 0:41:19Into single figures. Still going down.
0:41:19 > 0:41:21Down it goes! You've done it!
0:41:21 > 0:41:24That's fantastic! Very well done indeed! Brilliant work!
0:41:24 > 0:41:27CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
0:41:27 > 0:41:30APPLAUSE DROWNS OUT SPEECH
0:41:33 > 0:41:36Congratulations. Martin Kaymer was a pointless answer,
0:41:36 > 0:41:39which means you go home with that jackpot of £1,000.
0:41:39 > 0:41:42Just have to decide what to call the horse, I guess!
0:41:42 > 0:41:44I've got a name for it already. Pointless.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47- Oh, there we are! Richard. - Fantastic.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51That is quite a daughter you've got there, Wayne. Very well done to both of you. Really good show today.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54Really good teams and you were the best of all of them.
0:41:54 > 0:41:57You actually picked the toughest category there as well cos
0:41:57 > 0:42:01there's only eight names on the list and only two of them were pointless. So, only Martin Kaymer
0:42:01 > 0:42:05and David Duval was the other pointless answer. The other people who have been world number one -
0:42:05 > 0:42:08you'd have got 2 points for Greg Norman, Luke Donald and Ernie Els.
0:42:08 > 0:42:133 points for Vijay Singh. 10 for Lee Westwood. And 27 for Rory McIlroy.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15The only names on the list.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18Let's take a look at the Solheim Cup team members.
0:42:20 > 0:42:23You could have had...
0:42:24 > 0:42:28In fact, everybody apart from Paula Creamer, Michelle Wie, Caroline
0:42:28 > 0:42:31Hedwall, Charley Hull and Anna Nordqvist.
