0:00:20 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:26 > 0:00:29where we are always striving to find the most obscure answers.
0:00:29 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:30 > 0:00:34APPLAUSE
0:00:34 > 0:00:36And couple number one.
0:00:36 > 0:00:37Hi, I'm Simon.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40And this is my friend and colleague Dave. And we're from Bristol.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42Couple number two.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hi, I'm Carole. This is my friend Judy.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46- And we are from Kent. - Couple number three.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Hi, I'm Ellie. This is my friend Luke.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50And we are students at Warwick University.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53- And finally, couple number four. - Hi, I'm Lucy.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55This is Harry, and we're family friends
0:00:55 > 0:00:56from Radcliffe in Manchester.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58And these are today's contestants.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01APPLAUSE
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Thanks very much, all of you.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05We'll find out more about you as the show goes along.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07So that just leaves one person for me to introduce.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10He's training me up to be clever on what he calls my thickness routine.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:13 > 0:01:14Hiya.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16APPLAUSE
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- Good afternoon.- And to you. - What a lovely show last time.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20Wasn't that nice?
0:01:20 > 0:01:23With Wayne and Laura, who are lovely and walked away with a jackpot.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25It was only £1,000, but they deserved it.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28They were very, very good. We've got Carole and Judy back from that show.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31We gave them a football question, wasn't their ideal.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Did rather well on it, but did get knocked out.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Hopefully, Round One better for you today.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38We've also got Luke and Ellie back, who got through to that head-to-head.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41So they played very well. Going to be a cracker, I think.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43OK. Well, thanks very much.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Now, Wayne and Laura won the jackpot last time,
0:01:45 > 0:01:49so we start off again with a jackpot of £1,000.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55APPLAUSE
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Now, the pair with the highest score at the end of each
0:01:59 > 0:02:01round will be eliminated, remember that
0:02:01 > 0:02:04and do everything you can to make sure you are not in that pair.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Our first category today is...
0:02:09 > 0:02:10History. Can you all decide
0:02:10 > 0:02:13in your pairs who's going first, who's going second?
0:02:13 > 0:02:15And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21OK, and the question concerns...
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Significant events and their monarchs, Richard.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30Yeah, on each pass, we'll show you significant events in history,
0:02:30 > 0:02:31also the years they occurred in.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32Tell us the name of the British
0:02:32 > 0:02:35or English monarch on the throne at the time, please.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Need name and regnal number, where appropriate.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40So it's going to be 14 dates and 14 monarchs to get at home. Good luck.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44OK, so who were the monarchs on the throne when these events took place?
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Here's our first board of seven events.
0:02:46 > 0:02:47And we have...
0:03:03 > 0:03:04I'll read those one last time.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22- David, welcome.- Hello.- Great to have you here. Where you here from?
0:03:22 > 0:03:24- We're here from Bristol. - From Bristol.
0:03:24 > 0:03:25And what do you do down in Bristol?
0:03:25 > 0:03:29- I am a design engineer.- Are you? Can I ask, what do you design?
0:03:29 > 0:03:33It's in communications. So that is about as much as I can say, really.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36HE MUMBLES
0:03:36 > 0:03:39- What do you do when you're not doing that, David?- I do all sorts.
0:03:39 > 0:03:44- I make model airplanes.- More design engineering at home.- Yes.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- And I do flight simulation on the computer.- OK.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50You never really like stopping working, do you?
0:03:50 > 0:03:53OK, now, David... David, what are you going to go for on this board?
0:03:53 > 0:03:57- HE SIGHS - It's a bit tricky, to be honest.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Um...
0:03:59 > 0:04:05I'm going to have to have a fairly safe guess that the publication
0:04:05 > 0:04:08of Darwin's Origin Of Species, that would be Queen Victoria.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Queen Victoria. Seems fair enough. Let's see if it is right.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Let's see how many people said it.
0:04:16 > 0:04:17It's right.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26APPLAUSE
0:04:26 > 0:04:2734 for Queen Victoria.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- David, very well played. - Thanks very much.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33I don't have very much to say about the Origin Of Species or
0:04:33 > 0:04:34Queen Victoria.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Both perfectly solid.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Thank you very much indeed. Now, Carole, welcome back.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44Remind us what you like getting up to, Carole.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48We travel the underground and write books about it.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52And I also work for the Citizens Advice Bureau.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56Yeah, so far you have written books about the Northern line
0:04:56 > 0:04:58- and the Jubilee line. Is that right?- Yes.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02So you just go through one station at a time and spend...?
0:05:02 > 0:05:04- It depends how interesting they are. - Right.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06If there is a lot to see, then
0:05:06 > 0:05:09it'll be just the one station. But if there is not much there...
0:05:09 > 0:05:10What sort of things have you written about?
0:05:10 > 0:05:13Are these sort of just curious facts about things
0:05:13 > 0:05:15or things you've discovered?
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- People that we meet.- I see, OK.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21We write about the station, the platform,
0:05:21 > 0:05:23odd things that we discover.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27For instance, the Stephens' Ink Museum.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28Wow.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31- What about that? Where was that? - That was at Finchley.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Sorry, is that a zinc museum or an ink museum?
0:05:34 > 0:05:36- ALEXANDER LAUGHS - Ink.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39- The zinc museum is next door. That's fun.- Oh.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43Ink Museum, just your kind of thing. Anyway, Carole, board.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Board of history.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49Board, that sounded like I'd had enough of Carole's stories about...
0:05:49 > 0:05:53I didn't mean that. I mean, the board of clues there.
0:05:53 > 0:05:58Well, I have a feeling that slavery abolition
0:05:58 > 0:06:00was also Queen Victoria.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07- So that is going to be your answer? - Yes.- Queen Victoria for 1833.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08Let's see if that is right.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11And if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Victoria.
0:06:16 > 0:06:17Oh, I'm sorry, Carole.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:06:20 > 0:06:221837,
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Queen Victoria took to the throne.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Luke, welcome back.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29- Thank you very much. - You had a stratospheric
0:06:29 > 0:06:31early career in Pointless.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Right through - low-scorer, low-scorer in the first two rounds,
0:06:34 > 0:06:37then into the head-to-head. And then a 2-nil defeat.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39It didn't fall our way, unfortunately.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42No, I'm afraid it didn't. It didn't. Luke, remind us what you do.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45I am an English literature student at the University of Warwick.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Very good. And what sort of things have you been getting up to?
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Fantastic art centre there, of course.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52- Have you been seeing many things there?- A few plays.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Lots of student productions going on at Warwick.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- Have you been involved in any? - I haven't personally.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58I've got a lot of friends who have.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01They recently put on Sweeney Todd. Critically acclaimed.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Recommend anybody to go and see anything at the Warwick Arts Centre.
0:07:04 > 0:07:05A bit of a shameless plug.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08No, it is a great place, Warwick. I love Warwick.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Now, Luke, what are you going to go for?
0:07:10 > 0:07:13I think I'm going to play it relatively safe
0:07:13 > 0:07:18and go for the Gunpowder Plot, 1605, and say James I.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20James I, says Luke for the Gunpowder Plot.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23Let's see if that is right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:07:26 > 0:07:27Absolutely right.
0:07:32 > 0:07:33Look at that, 14.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35APPLAUSE
0:07:35 > 0:07:3714 for James I.
0:07:37 > 0:07:38Best score so far.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42- Yeah, very well played. He was James VI of Scotland.- Indeed.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Harry. Welcome to the show.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Lovely to have you here from Manchester. What do you do, Harry?
0:07:49 > 0:07:52- I am contentedly retired.- Oh, that is nice. Contentedly retired.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55That's the best kind of retired. What did you do before?
0:07:55 > 0:07:58I was an electronics and computer engineer.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01And how do you fill your retirement, Harry?
0:08:01 > 0:08:04I like sports, outside.
0:08:04 > 0:08:05Not as much activity these days,
0:08:05 > 0:08:10but I am quite active with my local canal restoration society.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13That is interesting. What sort of things do you do?
0:08:13 > 0:08:18- Are you just restoring the banks and that kind of thing?- We do all sorts.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22A typical term is, "Come and join us for a dirty weekend."
0:08:22 > 0:08:25- LAUGHTER - We recently had a project
0:08:25 > 0:08:27which we built the world's first
0:08:27 > 0:08:30- full-sized bridge out of Meccano. - Excellent.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34- I mean, there's miles and miles of canals.- There's a great deal, yes.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Yeah. So plenty of work to do yet, I should think.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39- Keep us amused for a while yet, yes.- Excellent.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Well, good for you, Harry. There is your board.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44Do you want to talk us through it?
0:08:44 > 0:08:47World War II, I think, is George VI.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Margaret Thatcher, I think, is Elizabeth II.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Slavery, I'm not sure.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Or Trafalgar, I'm not sure.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57The Civil War, I think, was Charles I.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00I'm going for Charles I for the Civil War.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03OK, Charles I, says Harry. Let's see if that is right.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Well, 34 is our high-scoring correct answer.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15You passed that. 14, our low.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17You are pretty much halfway between.
0:09:17 > 0:09:2023. Very well done, Harry, good answer.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Yeah, well played, Harry, good answer.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26You're right about George VI as well, at the outbreak of World War II.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29He would have scored you 33.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Now, the election of Margaret Thatcher,
0:09:31 > 0:09:34obviously it is Queen Elizabeth II, but look at the score for this.
0:09:34 > 0:09:3665 points.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39What that tells us... Genuinely, what that tells us -
0:09:39 > 0:09:41because people know that answer - is people panic
0:09:41 > 0:09:44when they see information delivered in an unusual way.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46So if you say to anybody, "Who was Queen in 1979?"
0:09:46 > 0:09:48It's going to get 100.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51The second you say, "Who was Queen when Margaret Thatcher was elected?"
0:09:51 > 0:09:54they go, "That's too complicated, I can't do it. No, I can't do it."
0:09:54 > 0:09:56People panic when they receive information in that way.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Slavery, abolitioners, actually - William IV.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04Would've scored you 3 points. Very good answer.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06And the Battle of Trafalgar was...
0:10:06 > 0:10:08George III?
0:10:08 > 0:10:10It was George III, yeah.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Best answer, actually - 2 points.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16Thank you very much indeed. OK, let's take a look at the scores.
0:10:16 > 0:10:17We are halfway through the round.
0:10:17 > 0:10:1914, the best score of that pass.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Luke and Ellie once again. Supreme
0:10:21 > 0:10:23at this point. Then up to 23,
0:10:23 > 0:10:24where we find Harry and Lucy.
0:10:24 > 0:10:2734, David and Simon. Then up to 100, Carole and Judy.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30Oh, Judy, we can't say goodbye to you at the end of this round.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33Let's hope there's a lovely low score on the next board that you,
0:10:33 > 0:10:35and only you, know. Good luck with that.
0:10:35 > 0:10:36We come back down the line now.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:41 > 0:10:44OK, let's put seven more historical events up on the board.
0:10:44 > 0:10:45And here they come.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48We have got...
0:11:05 > 0:11:07I'll read those all one last time.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29Now, Lucy, we come to you. Welcome, Lucy, lovely to have you here.
0:11:29 > 0:11:30What do you do, Lucy?
0:11:30 > 0:11:33I work for a market research company that does
0:11:33 > 0:11:36- research for pharmaceutical companies.- I see.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39- So you are getting all the data back and you are processing that...- Yeah.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- ..and passing it on to the drug companies.- Yes.- Excellent.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44What do you like doing when you're not doing that?
0:11:44 > 0:11:47I am into languages. I did French and Italian
0:11:47 > 0:11:51- at university and I like travelling. I lived in Florence.- Lovely.
0:11:51 > 0:11:56- I am into music, reading, theatre.- Excellent.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59- Well, how's your history?- Um...
0:11:59 > 0:12:01I knew more on the other board.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Um...
0:12:03 > 0:12:07I think the only one that I'm 100% sure on is
0:12:07 > 0:12:11the defeat of the Spanish Armada and Elizabeth I.
0:12:11 > 0:12:12Elizabeth I, says Lucy.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15You have to score 76 or less to be sure of a place in the next round.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18There is your red line. Let's see if you can get below that
0:12:18 > 0:12:20with Elizabeth I.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Well done. You have done it. Good answer.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31APPLAUSE
0:12:31 > 0:12:3448 is your total.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Well played, Lucy. Safely through. Yeah, Elizabeth I.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38She changed her name, of course,
0:12:38 > 0:12:40cos she used to just be called Elizabeth.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Of course.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45- That's right.- And then she got a branding agency in.- Yeah, yeah.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47They said, "Call yourself Elizabeth I."
0:12:47 > 0:12:49And she was like, "Are you sure?"
0:12:49 > 0:12:50And they went, "Yes, it sounds amazing
0:12:50 > 0:12:52"because it's like primary, the first one."
0:12:52 > 0:12:54She was like, "All right, I will.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56"It'll cost me a lot to change my stationery."
0:12:56 > 0:12:59But worth it, I think, because she has become much more famous.
0:12:59 > 0:13:00Yeah, like it.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Thank you very much indeed. Now, Ellie, welcome back.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Exemplary performance up to the head-to-head last time.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09- I'm hoping you'll repeat that and go one step further.- Hopefully.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Now, remind us what you do. You are at Warwick.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14- I'm a history student. - That's exactly right!
0:13:14 > 0:13:17- LAUGHTER - So...
0:13:17 > 0:13:21The last board was better for me, but I think I'm going to go for...
0:13:21 > 0:13:25I wrote my dissertation on the Reformation, so I think I'm going
0:13:25 > 0:13:28to go with the break with Rome and the dissolution of the monasteries.
0:13:28 > 0:13:32- And go for Henry VIII. - Henry VIII, says Ellie.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- You have to score 85 or less. - Yeah, playing it safe a little bit.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Surely you will get below that red line with Henry VIII.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Let's find out if you do.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44It's right, and you are through. Very well done indeed.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48APPLAUSE
0:13:48 > 0:13:5050 is your nice,
0:13:50 > 0:13:51- round total.- Very well done.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Especially if you've written a dissertation on the Reformation,
0:13:54 > 0:13:57that's route one information we're asking for. But well done.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58Do you know how many people they estimate
0:13:58 > 0:14:00he executed during his reign?
0:14:00 > 0:14:02Henry VIII.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04- ALEXANDER SIGHS - Um, maybe...
0:14:04 > 0:14:08It was either something massive or something surprisingly small.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Maybe it was only...
0:14:11 > 0:14:14- ..40. - ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Do you know what? It was 72,000.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19AUDIENCE GASPS
0:14:19 > 0:14:20- Wow.- Yeah.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25That's a lot of people. Ellie could probably name all of them.
0:14:25 > 0:14:26But I won't ask you to.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- Easy, easy.- OK. Thank you very much indeed.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30OK, so, Judy...
0:14:30 > 0:14:34Judy, so far, I was rather hoping that somebody might stumble,
0:14:34 > 0:14:36there'd be a massive high score and you'd be through.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38I'm hoping that, too.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Well, it may yet happen.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45Judy, what we absolutely, absolutely require from you is a low score.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48But remind us about yourself, Judy. Obviously, we know about your books.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51Have you done publicity and things for the books?
0:14:51 > 0:14:53We were on The One Show.
0:14:53 > 0:14:58- We were filmed singing a silly song going along on the Tube.- That's fun.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Did anyone give you some money?
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Everybody looked terribly embarrassed
0:15:02 > 0:15:05and looked the other way and tried to distance themselves from us.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08The One Show had the same branding agency as Elizabeth I.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11- Did you know that?- Yes.- When it came out, it used to be called The Show.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14LAUGHTER
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Judy, what are you going to go for on this board?
0:15:17 > 0:15:22I'm going to go for signing of the Magna Carta and King John.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24King John, says Judy. Let's see if that's right.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27No red line for you, I'm afraid, as you are the high-scorers,
0:15:27 > 0:15:29but let's see how far down the column you get with King John.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43122. You are still in with a chance.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Given yourself a chance there.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Yeah, there's four remaining copies of the Magna Carta.
0:15:48 > 0:15:52- The Government got one of them insured for £30 million.- Wow.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Now, Simon.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56- Hello.- Simon, welcome. Lovely to have you here.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57What do you do, Simon?
0:15:57 > 0:16:00I'm a sales and marketing manager for an electronics company.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02A lot of electronics going on.
0:16:02 > 0:16:07- Nothing to do with David?- We are, actually, yes.- Oh, I see. I see.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10HE MUMBLES
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Simon, what do you do in your spare time?
0:16:12 > 0:16:15I'm an active member of our local church. I run a youth group.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19We also have a six-year-old daughter,
0:16:19 > 0:16:21and she takes up a lot of our time.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25- And I also play a lot of squash nowadays as well.- Very good.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Now, Simon, you have to score 87 or less.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31It's... Yeah. There's not a lot left on that board.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34- It's looking a bit tricky. - This is very difficult for me.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37We need a correct answer from you. That's essentially what we need.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Talk us through the board if you can, Simon.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Not much I can talk about.
0:16:41 > 0:16:42Um...
0:16:42 > 0:16:45My guess is Einstein's proposal of the theory of relativity
0:16:45 > 0:16:48may be George V.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Great Fire of London, Charles II.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53I'm not too sure about the other two.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56I'm going to go - Great Fire of London and Charles II.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59Charles II for the Great Fire of London.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said it.
0:17:02 > 0:17:03There's your red line.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08It's right. And you are through, very well done indeed, Simon.
0:17:12 > 0:17:13Look at that, 11.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19- 11 for Charles II. 45, your total. - Great answer, Simon.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Very well played. You picked the right one as well
0:17:22 > 0:17:25because the Einstein one was actually Edward VII.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Would've scored...
0:17:27 > 0:17:3418 points. Columbus' discovery of the New World was the reign of Henry VII.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38Scored you 4. And the 1707 was Queen Anne.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Scored you 9 points. So Henry VII, the best answer up there.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Thanks very much indeed, Richard. At the end of our first round,
0:17:43 > 0:17:46the pair heading home with their high score of 122...
0:17:46 > 0:17:49I'm so sorry, Judy and Carole, it's you again.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Far too soon, as I say, to be saying goodbye.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53It's been wonderful having you.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Thank you for coming and joining us and playing.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59- Judy and Carole, lovely contestants. - APPLAUSE
0:18:01 > 0:18:04But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10And so, three pairs remain. At the end of this round,
0:18:10 > 0:18:13we'll have to say goodbye to another pair. That was very close.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Our three surviving pairs within 5 points of each other.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Simon, lowest individual score, very well done.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Simon and David, lowest combined score as well.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Then Lucy and Harry. Then Luke and Ellie.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Lowest score halfway through the round
0:18:25 > 0:18:28and then the highest remaining three at the end of the round, Luke.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30I don't know what we can attribute that to.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32But anyway, best of luck to all three pairs.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Our category for Round Two today is...
0:18:37 > 0:18:38It's Pop Music.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41Can you all decide who's going first, who's going second?
0:18:42 > 0:18:45And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52We give 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Artists who released the biggest selling singles of 2013, Richard.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05We're looking for the answers behind any of the top 40 selling
0:19:05 > 0:19:07singles of 2013 in the UK, please.
0:19:07 > 0:19:11So anyone who released one of the top 40 best selling singles of 2013.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15Where it's one act featuring another, they all count as separate answers.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19Thank you very much indeed, Richard. So, Simon, to you.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23- What are you going to go for, Simon? - I'm going to go for Rihanna.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Rihanna, says Simon. Let's see if Rihanna is right.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Let's see how many of our 100 people said Rihanna.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33It is right, well done, Simon.
0:19:41 > 0:19:4229 for Rihanna.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Yeah, she had two hits in that top 40.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47I won't mention them cos they both involve other people as well.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Thanks very much indeed. Now, Ellie.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52Hm. Uh...
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Kind of a lot of things coming to mind,
0:19:54 > 0:19:58but then I'm thinking maybe they're a bit too obvious, I don't know.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02So I think I'm going to go for not so much a singer but a producer
0:20:02 > 0:20:05who has sort of released them, so I'm going to go for Avicii.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Avicii, says Ellie.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12Avicii, let's see if that is right, let's see how many people said that.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16It's right.
0:20:16 > 0:20:1929 is our only score at this point,
0:20:19 > 0:20:20and you passed it.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Very well done indeed. Avicii down to 2!
0:20:22 > 0:20:24That is a great answer, Ellie.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26- Very well done indeed. - APPLAUSE
0:20:28 > 0:20:30Yeah, well played, Ellie.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32That is Swedish DJ Tim Bergling. He actually had the
0:20:32 > 0:20:35third biggest-selling song of the year with Wake Me Up.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Charges a quarter of a million dollars for a DJ set.
0:20:38 > 0:20:42- There you go.- For one night. - There. You. Go.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Interestingly, a few years ago...
0:20:44 > 0:20:46I say a few years ago, probably about 20+ years ago,
0:20:46 > 0:20:48they made it compulsory for all Swedish schoolchildren to
0:20:48 > 0:20:50- take up a musical instrument.- OK.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52And the result is, a generation later,
0:20:52 > 0:20:54the top music producers in the world are all Swedish.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57- All Swedish?- Yeah. - Is that right?- Yeah.
0:20:57 > 0:21:01There we are. Thank you very much indeed. Now, Lucy.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05- Lucy, what are you going to go for? - I've got a couple in mind.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07There is one, but I'm not 100% sure on,
0:21:07 > 0:21:11so I don't know to take the risk... I think I'll try it anyway.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13I'm going to say Bastille.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Bastille, says Lucy. Bastille. Let's see if that is right.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Let's see how many of our 100 people said Bastille.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25It's right. Good answer.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Well, 2 is our lowest score so far.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30You pass the high score of 29.
0:21:30 > 0:21:323. Very well done.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Lovely and close at the bottom there.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36APPLAUSE
0:21:36 > 0:21:373 for Bastille.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Had an amazing time recently, sold over two million
0:21:40 > 0:21:42copies of Pompeii, which is the single in this top 40.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Also spent over six months in the top ten of the album charts.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Big hit in America.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- Good song.- Good song. Good band.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Thank you very much indeed, Richard. We're halfway through,
0:21:53 > 0:21:55let's look at those scores.
0:21:55 > 0:21:56Once again, Ellie and Luke,
0:21:56 > 0:21:59commanding position there. Lovely low score of 2 from Ellie.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01Then up to 3, where we find Lucy and Harry.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Then we up to 29, Simon and David.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06So, David, get thinking. We need a nice low score from you.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08At the very, very least.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11I don't understand what this means.
0:22:11 > 0:22:12Surely that means it is all a bluff.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15You've got a brilliant answer there. Best of luck.
0:22:15 > 0:22:16We'll come back down the line now.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:22:21 > 0:22:24Harry, we are looking for any artist or group who had
0:22:24 > 0:22:27one of the 40 biggest-selling singles of 2013.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31There were three categories that I wasn't looking forward to
0:22:31 > 0:22:35- before the show, and this is one of them.- Oh, Harry!
0:22:35 > 0:22:38I'm going to go for Katy Perry.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41Katy Perry, says Harry. Let's see if that is right.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44There you are, on 3. You have to score to 25 or less.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Let's see if you can do that with Katy Perry. Is it right?
0:22:47 > 0:22:48There is your red line.
0:22:50 > 0:22:51It's right.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54That is a good answer, Harry. Will it get you below that red line?
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Yes, it will.
0:22:56 > 0:22:589 for Katy Perry.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01Very well done indeed. 12 is your total.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04That is a very good answer for someone who wasn't looking
0:23:04 > 0:23:07forward to the category. Yes, she had a huge hit with Roar.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10It is the sixth biggest-selling single of 2013.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12She's got a cat called Kitty Purry.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16MILD LAUGHING
0:23:16 > 0:23:18- Good.- Nice, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Thanks, Richard. Luke.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23- Right, well, I have a few things buzzing around my head.- OK.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25I think I'm going to play it relatively safe again
0:23:25 > 0:23:27and say Daft Punk.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30Daft Punk, says Luke. Let's see if that is right.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Let's see how many of our 100 people said it. There is your red line.
0:23:36 > 0:23:37It is right.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42And it gets you through, very well done indeed.
0:23:42 > 0:23:446 for Daft Punk.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46I thought that was going to be a high score there.
0:23:46 > 0:23:47That takes your total up to 8.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48Very well done.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Yeah, that is the second biggest-selling single of 2013.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Yep, Get Lucky.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55- That was only the second biggest? - Hm.- Wow.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- There was a bigger seller. - There's a surprise in store.
0:23:58 > 0:24:03- Hm. Thank you. Now, David. - Oh, dear.- David, David...
0:24:03 > 0:24:06I have grave news, David. I'm afraid
0:24:06 > 0:24:08you won't be joining us in the head-to-head.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11You're the high-scorers. Still, we would like an answer from you.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14Well, I wouldn't have come up with a spectacular answer anyway.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18I was thinking somebody like Caro Emerald or Ed Sheeran or
0:24:18 > 0:24:21someone like that, so I'll say Ed Sheeran.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Ed Sheeran, says David. Ed Sheeran.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Let's see if that's right, how many people said it.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28No red line for you, as you are the high-scorers.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Bad luck, David, not Ed Sheeran.
0:24:32 > 0:24:33Good guess, though.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36Scores you 100 points, takes your total up to
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- 129. I've just thought who the biggest seller was.- Have you?
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Unlucky, David. Caro Emerald also would have been an incorrect answer.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45- So the number one selling single of that year?- Robin Thicke.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49- Robin Thicke. And Pharrell, again. - Of course, yeah.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Both of the top two selling singles of the year -
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Get Lucky and Blurred Lines. If you had said Robin Thicke,
0:24:53 > 0:24:55it would've scored you 15 points.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57If you'd said Pharrell, it would've scored you 4 points.
0:24:57 > 0:24:58A very good answer.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01There's lots of pointless answers here. Very well done
0:25:01 > 0:25:02if you said any of these.
0:25:02 > 0:25:03Talking of DJs, you could've had...
0:25:05 > 0:25:10Eminem, he featured on one of Rihanna's singles in that top 40.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20Lots of other answers you could've had. Akon.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23You could've had Disclosure for a pointless answer. Duke Dumont.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26You could've had Imagine Dragons. You could've had Lumineers.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Macklemore was a pointless answer.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30OneRepublic, also a pointless answer.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Sam Smith, who sung with Naughty Boy, was a pointless answer.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36So lots of pointless answers there. Let's take a look at the top three,
0:25:36 > 0:25:39the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41Robin Thicke, with 15. Blurred Lines, of course.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44One Direction - 24. They are always up there, aren't they?
0:25:44 > 0:25:46And Rihanna, actually the biggest scorer of all - 29.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Thanks very much indeed, Richard. At the end of our second round,
0:25:49 > 0:25:52I'm afraid the pair who are leaving us with their high score of 129
0:25:52 > 0:25:55is David and Simon. Well, that was a tough round
0:25:55 > 0:25:59for you, that one. But you did pretty admirably all the same.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01It all bodes very well for when we see you next time.
0:26:01 > 0:26:02We look forward to that.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04David and Simon, thanks very much for playing.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07APPLAUSE
0:26:07 > 0:26:11But for the remaining two pairs, it is now time for the head-to-head.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18Congratulations, Luke and Ellie, and Lucy and Harry,
0:26:18 > 0:26:20you are now one step closer to the final
0:26:20 > 0:26:22and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:26:22 > 0:26:25which currently stands at £1,000.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27Luke and Ellie, you were here last time.
0:26:27 > 0:26:28You were in that position.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30You were our low-scoring pair in the head-to-head last time.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32How are you feeling this time?
0:26:32 > 0:26:35- More confident.- I was going to say more nervous.- Oh, really?
0:26:35 > 0:26:37- A good blend.- You can put your heads together,
0:26:37 > 0:26:38so somewhere in the middle.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41- Teamwork.- Exactly. And, Lucy, hi. Well done,
0:26:41 > 0:26:43your first appearance, straight to the head-to-head.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45Very good. I think this is going to be very close.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56And here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Chief Secretaries to the Treasury, Richard.
0:27:02 > 0:27:03Yeah, proper glamour round, this one.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06We'll show you five people who have held the cabinet post
0:27:06 > 0:27:07of Chief Secretary to the Treasury.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Can you to tell us who they are, please?
0:27:09 > 0:27:12OK, let's reveal our five Chief Secretaries to the Treasury.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14And here they are.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16We have got...
0:27:39 > 0:27:40There we are.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43Luke and Ellie, you have played best throughout the show so far,
0:27:43 > 0:27:44so you will go first.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47THEY WHISPER
0:27:52 > 0:27:55OK, we only think we know two from the board,
0:27:55 > 0:27:58but we are going to go with A - Yvette Cooper.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01A - Yvette Cooper, say Luke and Ellie. Yvette Cooper.
0:28:01 > 0:28:03Now, Lucy and Harry, the board is all yours,
0:28:03 > 0:28:06talk us through it if you can.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09Not sure about A. B is Michael Portillo.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12C... No.
0:28:12 > 0:28:13D is John Major.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16And E is Danny Alexander.
0:28:16 > 0:28:17So we're going to go for E -
0:28:17 > 0:28:19- Danny Alexander. - E - Danny Alexander.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22So we have Yvette Cooper and Danny Alexander.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24Luke and Ellie have said Yvette Cooper.
0:28:24 > 0:28:25Let's see if that is right for A.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28And if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:28:31 > 0:28:33It's right.
0:28:38 > 0:28:42APPLAUSE
0:28:42 > 0:28:43Yvette Cooper, good score.
0:28:43 > 0:28:47Lucy and Harry, meanwhile, have said that E is Danny Alexander.
0:28:47 > 0:28:48Let's see if that is right.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50And if it is, let's see how many people said that.
0:28:53 > 0:28:54It's right.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59It's going to be close.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01Oh, 16 for Danny Alexander.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03APPLAUSE
0:29:03 > 0:29:06Well done, Luke and Ellie. After one question, you are up 1-nil.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09Two good answers there. There is only one better one on the board.
0:29:09 > 0:29:13It's not B. That is Michael Portillo. Would have scored you 53.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16Best answer, as you'd imagined, is C.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19It's the person Danny Alexander took over from. It was...
0:29:19 > 0:29:23- David Laws.- David Laws, yep. Would've scored you 6 points.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27And... John Major, what do you think he would score?
0:29:27 > 0:29:30- 5(?) - HE LAUGHS
0:29:30 > 0:29:31An 88, he scored.
0:29:31 > 0:29:34- How many?- 88.- 88. - That's not too bad, is it?
0:29:34 > 0:29:38Thanks very much indeed. OK, so here comes your second question.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40Lucy and Harry, you have to win this one,
0:29:40 > 0:29:42but you get to answer it first, so best of luck.
0:29:42 > 0:29:43It concerns...
0:29:47 > 0:29:49Words without vowels, Richard.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52We are going to show you five definitions now of words which don't
0:29:52 > 0:29:53have vowels in them - A, E, I, O, U.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55Can you tell us what the words are, please?
0:29:55 > 0:29:58OK, let's reveal our five clues. And here they come...
0:29:59 > 0:30:01We have got...
0:30:16 > 0:30:18I'll read those all one last time.
0:30:29 > 0:30:33There we are. Now Lucy and Harry will go first.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35- WHISPERS:- The bottom one is nymph.
0:30:35 > 0:30:37And then lynx. Crypt.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39I don't know the Welsh one.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41If you know the music one, go for that.
0:30:41 > 0:30:42OK.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45We're going to go for the bottom one.
0:30:45 > 0:30:46I think it's nymph.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Nymph, say Lucy and Harry. Nymph.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51Now, Luke and Ellie, over to you.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54The board's all yours, talk us through it if you can.
0:30:54 > 0:30:55The top one is rhythm.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58I think I know the second one, but I'm not 100% sure.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01I think it's spelt something like
0:31:01 > 0:31:04C-W-Y-C-H, or something.
0:31:04 > 0:31:05Don't know the third one.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08I think we're going to go for the fourth one with lynx.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11Lynx. So we have nymph vs lynx.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14Lucy and Harry said nymph. Let's see if that's right.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17And if it is, let's see how many people said nymph.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27APPLAUSE
0:31:27 > 0:31:3051. Meanwhile, Luke and Ellie have gone for lynx.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:31:35 > 0:31:36It is right.
0:31:37 > 0:31:40Oh, 70 for lynx.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44Which means... Well done, Lucy and Harry.
0:31:44 > 0:31:45After two questions, it's 1-all.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47Yeah, some big scorers on this board.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49Funnily, rhythm is a better answer than lynx.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52Still wouldn't have won you the point. It would've scored you 53.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54This next one down, you weren't a million miles away.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57It was voted Wales' favourite word in 2007.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00And its cwtch. C-W-T-C-H.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03And would've scored 13 points.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05And the other one, of course, is crypt.
0:32:05 > 0:32:09And that is the biggest scorer. Scored you 84.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11There we are.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13Thanks very much indeed. So here comes your third question.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16Whoever wins this goes to the final, plays for that jackpot.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18Best of luck to both pairs. It concerns...
0:32:21 > 0:32:23- The TV series The Office, Richard.- Yep.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25Five clues here to facts about the TV series The Office.
0:32:25 > 0:32:28- Very best of luck to both teams. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30Let's reveal our five clues, and here they come.
0:32:45 > 0:32:47I'll read those all one last time.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01Luke and Ellie, you'll go first.
0:33:03 > 0:33:07THEY WHISPER
0:33:09 > 0:33:12OK, we think we're going to go for the second one -
0:33:12 > 0:33:15item of Gareth's stationery - which is the stapler.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18Stapler, say Luke and Ellie. Stapler.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20Now, Lucy and Harry, the board is all yours.
0:33:20 > 0:33:22Talk us through it if you can.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25This is NOT a good subject.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27The bottom answer is Ricky Gervais,
0:33:27 > 0:33:30the others we're not sure of. So...
0:33:30 > 0:33:33- Do you want to guess at another one? - Croydon?- Yeah, why not?
0:33:33 > 0:33:36We're going to say the town in which the series is set is Croydon.
0:33:36 > 0:33:40OK, Croydon, say Lucy and Harry. So we have a stapler vs Croydon.
0:33:40 > 0:33:43- You can't say that every day. - No, you certainly don't.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Luke and Ellie have gone for a stapler. Let's see if that's right.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48Let's see how many of our 100 people said stapler.
0:33:51 > 0:33:52It's right.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59Very well done, 16. Good answer. Stapler.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05Lucy and harry, meanwhile, have decided Croydon
0:34:05 > 0:34:07is where The Office is set. Let's see if that's right,
0:34:07 > 0:34:10and if it is, let's see how many people said that.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14No, I'm afraid not Croydon. Which means...
0:34:14 > 0:34:15Luke and Ellie, very well done.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18After three questions, you are through to the final, 2-1.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21Yeah, good head-to-head. You were right to avoid Ricky Gervais.
0:34:21 > 0:34:2254 points he would've scored you.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24I know Ricky watches this show.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26He says he always watches it in the bath.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29- Oh, yes. He shouldn't, it's very dangerous.- You think?
0:34:29 > 0:34:30What if it fell in?
0:34:30 > 0:34:33- He might miss the jackpot round. - RICHARD LAUGHS
0:34:33 > 0:34:35That's true. He's probably thought of that.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38- He's got his television safely secured.- I'm sure of that.
0:34:38 > 0:34:39Is my guess.
0:34:39 > 0:34:40- Yeah.- You never know, though.
0:34:40 > 0:34:42But hopefully, you've got all of these ones.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45The town in which the series is set is not Croydon, it's Slough.
0:34:45 > 0:34:47Would've scored you 20 points, though.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50Now, the answer David Brent first gave to a quiz question,
0:34:50 > 0:34:53who the leader of Cuba was... It was a pointless answer.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55Very well done if you said Fray Bentos.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58That was his answer. LAUGHTER
0:34:58 > 0:35:01Very well played. And the first name of Dawn's fiance was Lee.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03That would've scored you 6 points.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05We should make a film of a stapler vs Croydon.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08- That's a gr...- Like a big monster film.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11Who would you back, stapler vs Croydon?
0:35:11 > 0:35:14- Well, it's going to be a big stapler. - Well, I'm guessing. Obviously.
0:35:14 > 0:35:16Well, I would imagine the stapler is winning
0:35:16 > 0:35:18and then someone comes in to save the day.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21- Of course.- No spoilers, but...
0:35:21 > 0:35:23- Yeah. - That would be the way I'd do it.
0:35:23 > 0:35:27- Last minute, it runs out of staples. Ah! That's it.- That's good.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29Just when it's coming in for the big bite.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31The big... Crack!
0:35:31 > 0:35:34- It's already stapled Croydon to Purley.- Rrr... Rrr...
0:35:34 > 0:35:35Let's do that. Let's pitch that.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37- OK.- Ricky, you in, you in?
0:35:37 > 0:35:41When he gets out and his fingers have stopped being quite so...pruny.
0:35:41 > 0:35:44- Yeah.- He'll be on to us. OK, thank you very much indeed.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46Well, that's the end of our head-to-head round.
0:35:46 > 0:35:47I'm afraid the pair leaving us
0:35:47 > 0:35:49at the end of that round are Lucy and Harry.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52It is actually good news for us - we get to see you again next time.
0:35:52 > 0:35:55If you'd gone to the final, that would've been it. Far too brief.
0:35:55 > 0:35:59We look forward to that. Lucy and Harry, thanks for playing.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02APPLAUSE
0:36:02 > 0:36:05But for Luke and Ellie, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11Congratulations, Luke and Ellie, you've fought off all
0:36:11 > 0:36:13the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:36:13 > 0:36:14So very well done.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23You now have the chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:36:23 > 0:36:27At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,000.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29Well, here you are. Eventually.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32Head-to-head last time as our low-scoring pair. Then you left.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34Head-to-head this time as our low-scoring pair.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36And through to the final.
0:36:36 > 0:36:38Well, as always, you get to choose your category.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40Let's see what today's selection is.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54SHE SCOFFS
0:36:55 > 0:36:58I think we are going to have to go for...
0:36:58 > 0:37:02Films released in the UK in early 2014.
0:37:02 > 0:37:05OK. Films released in the UK in early 2014. Richard.
0:37:05 > 0:37:06Yeah, best of luck.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09We are looking for the name of any actor who was
0:37:09 > 0:37:12credited by IMDb as appearing in...
0:37:19 > 0:37:22So, any actor in any of those three films, please, according to IMDb.
0:37:22 > 0:37:23Very best of luck.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25As ever, you have got up to one minute to come up with three
0:37:25 > 0:37:28answers. All you need to win that jackpot is for just one of them
0:37:28 > 0:37:30to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:37:30 > 0:37:33- (Yeah.)- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35Your time starts now.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38- OK, so in The Wolf Of Wall Street... - Margot Robbie.
0:37:38 > 0:37:43Margot Robbie and Joanna Lumley are in the Wolf Of Wall Street.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46In The Monuments Men, I know that John Goodman is in it.
0:37:46 > 0:37:48Matt Damon would be a big score.
0:37:48 > 0:37:52- George Clooney.- I'll tell you who is in it, the guy who plays...
0:37:52 > 0:37:55Hugh Bonneville is in The Monuments Men.
0:37:55 > 0:37:56- Yeah.- I'm pretty sure.
0:37:56 > 0:38:00And The Grand Budapest Hotel has got Ralph Fiennes.
0:38:00 > 0:38:03We would have Adrien...
0:38:03 > 0:38:04Adrien...
0:38:04 > 0:38:09What's his face? From the... From...The pianist.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11- Brody?- Adrien Brody is in The Grand Budapest Hotel.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13And so is Owen Wilson.
0:38:13 > 0:38:17But I think we should go for Joanna Lumley in The Wolf Of Wall Street.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19OK. Do want to go for Adrien Brody?
0:38:19 > 0:38:22Hugh Bonneville in The Monuments Men. No?
0:38:22 > 0:38:25- I don't know, I think we've said more obscure ones.- Ten seconds left.
0:38:25 > 0:38:31- And in The Grand Budapest Hotel, Adrien Brody.- OK.
0:38:31 > 0:38:33- Yeah? Happy with that?- Yes.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36- Yes. Good.- OK, that is your time up.
0:38:36 > 0:38:37I now need your three answers.
0:38:37 > 0:38:41OK, so, from The Monuments Men, we are going to go for Hugh Bonville.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43- Hugh Bonville or Bonneville, yeah. - Bonneville, OK.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45Good.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47Actors in The Grand Budapest Hotel,
0:38:47 > 0:38:49- we're going to go for Adrien Brody. - Adrien Brody.
0:38:49 > 0:38:52And then actors in The Wolf Of Wall Street,
0:38:52 > 0:38:54- we're going to go for Joanna Lumley. - Joanna Lumley.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57Now, of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:57 > 0:38:59I haven't seen any of them, so you go.
0:38:59 > 0:39:00I think...
0:39:00 > 0:39:03- Joanna Lumley. - OK, Joanna Lumley we put last.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06- Least likely to be pointless? - Hugh Bonneville.- Hugh Bonneville.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09Hugh Bonneville. OK, let's put those up on the board in that order, then.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12And here they are. We have got
0:39:12 > 0:39:15Hugh Bonneville, Adrien Brody,
0:39:15 > 0:39:16Joanna Lumley.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19Well, very best of luck. Three very good answers up there on the board.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21Remember, only one has to be
0:39:21 > 0:39:22pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:39:22 > 0:39:26Not our biggest jackpot, 1,000 quid, but nice to take home.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28What would you do with that? Ellie, you first.
0:39:28 > 0:39:33Probably I'd quite like to spend it on travelling,
0:39:33 > 0:39:35kind of seeing all my friends after university.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37I've been wanting to get Interrailing for quite a while,
0:39:37 > 0:39:40so kind of put that towards the fund.
0:39:40 > 0:39:41Yeah.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43Luke, how about you?
0:39:43 > 0:39:46I'm getting married in December, so I'd probably put it
0:39:46 > 0:39:50towards the wedding fund, get that bit more extravagant, you know?
0:39:50 > 0:39:51Push the boat out.
0:39:51 > 0:39:53Very good indeed. Well, best of luck.
0:39:53 > 0:39:54Three good answers, as I say,
0:39:54 > 0:39:57let's hope one of them at least wins that jackpot for you.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00Your first answer, the one was probably least likely to be
0:40:00 > 0:40:02pointless, was Hugh Bonneville.
0:40:02 > 0:40:04In this case, we were looking for actors in The Monuments Men.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07It has to be right, then it has to be pointless for you
0:40:07 > 0:40:08to win the jackpot of £1,000.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10Let's see how many people said Hugh Bonneville.
0:40:14 > 0:40:16Well, it's right.
0:40:16 > 0:40:17Now all it has to be is pointless.
0:40:17 > 0:40:20If it goes all the way down to zero, you leave with £1,000.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Down it goes, through the 20s
0:40:22 > 0:40:23and into the teens.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26And into single figures. Still going down...
0:40:26 > 0:40:29APPLAUSE
0:40:31 > 0:40:353, not bad. Not a bad score by any stretch of imagination.
0:40:35 > 0:40:39But, sadly, in this last round, we are only interested in pointless
0:40:39 > 0:40:42answers, which means you only have two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44Your second answer was Adrien Brody.
0:40:44 > 0:40:49In this case, we were looking for actors in The Grand Budapest Hotel.
0:40:49 > 0:40:52It has to be pointless to win that jackpot. Very best of luck.
0:40:52 > 0:40:56Let's see, for £1,000, how many people said Adrien Brody.
0:40:59 > 0:41:00Well, it's right.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04Your first answer, Hugh Bonneville, took us all the way down to 3.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06Your second answer, Adrien Brody,
0:41:06 > 0:41:08now taking us down through the teens
0:41:08 > 0:41:09and into single figures.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11Still going down. Down it goes. Still going...
0:41:11 > 0:41:13You've done it! Very well done indeed.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18You've done it. Fantastic, well done.
0:41:18 > 0:41:22- Brilliant.- Thank you very much. - Brilliant. Fantastic work.
0:41:22 > 0:41:24Hey-hey!
0:41:24 > 0:41:26Stop dancing.
0:41:26 > 0:41:27Congratulations.
0:41:27 > 0:41:28Adrien Brody was a pointless answer,
0:41:28 > 0:41:32which means you go home with our jackpot of £1,000.
0:41:32 > 0:41:33Very well done indeed.
0:41:33 > 0:41:36APPLAUSE
0:41:37 > 0:41:40That's terrific. Well played, Luke and Ellie. Well deserved.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43And your other answer, Joanna Lumley, also pointless.
0:41:43 > 0:41:44Very well done.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47APPLAUSE
0:41:47 > 0:41:50Let's take a look at all the pointless answers from the different
0:41:50 > 0:41:52categories. We start with The Monuments Men.
0:41:55 > 0:41:59You could've had Jean Dujardin, who won the Oscar for The Actor.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01You could've had the lovely Miles Jupp,
0:42:01 > 0:42:03comedian in Rev and all sorts of things.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06And Nick Clooney plays George Clooney as an older man.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08Aptly so, cos he's George Clooney's dad.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11In fact, you could've had everybody in that film
0:42:11 > 0:42:14apart from George Clooney - 24, Matt Damon - 15, Bill Murray - 4,
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Cate Blanchett and Hugh Bonneville - 3, and John Goodman - 2.
0:42:17 > 0:42:19Everybody else was pointless.
0:42:19 > 0:42:21Let's take a look at The Grand Budapest Hotel.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23There is Adrien Brody at the top.
0:42:27 > 0:42:31Again, anybody apart from Ralph Fiennes - 16,
0:42:31 > 0:42:33Bill Murray - 6, Owen Wilson - 3,
0:42:33 > 0:42:34Tilda Swinton - 2,
0:42:34 > 0:42:37and 1 for Jude Law, Jeff Goldblum and Edward Norton.
0:42:37 > 0:42:40And the final one, Wolf Of Wall Street.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42There's Joanna Lumley.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Jon Favreau was an actor, also a director.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47- Forever in his debt cos he directed Elf, Jon Favreau.- Oh, yes.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Kyle Chandler, who's in Friday Night Lights.
0:42:50 > 0:42:53And another wonderful director and comedian and actor,
0:42:53 > 0:42:54Rob Reiner, who did Spinal Tap.
0:42:54 > 0:42:57Everybody there pointless apart from Leonardo di Caprio,
0:42:57 > 0:42:59who would've scored you 59. Jonah Hill would've scored you 4.
0:42:59 > 0:43:02And then 1 point for Matthew McConaughey, Margot Robbie,
0:43:02 > 0:43:05who you mentioned, and Jordan Belfort, who wrote the book
0:43:05 > 0:43:07and has a little cameo in that film.
0:43:07 > 0:43:08Thanks very much indeed.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Thanks again to our winning players, Luke and Ellie,
0:43:10 > 0:43:14who go way with today's jackpot oh £1,000. Very well done.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16APPLAUSE
0:43:16 > 0:43:19Join us next time when we'll put more obscure knowledge to the test
0:43:19 > 0:43:21- on Pointless. Meanwhile, it is goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:21 > 0:43:23And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
