0:00:18 > 0:00:19APPLAUSE
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 > 0:00:29the show where the aim of the game is to find the most obscure answer possible.
0:00:29 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32APPLAUSE
0:00:35 > 0:00:36And couple number one.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39Hello, my name's Sue and this is my husband, Ian,
0:00:39 > 0:00:40and we're from Leicestershire.
0:00:40 > 0:00:41Couple number two.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43Hi, I'm Fareed, this is Danny,
0:00:43 > 0:00:45and we're housemates at the University of Southampton.
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Couple number three.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50Hi, I'm Jenny, this is my fiance, Richard, and we're from Watford.
0:00:50 > 0:00:51And, finally, couple number four.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Hello, I'm Gayle from Oswaldtwistle
0:00:53 > 0:00:55and this is my friend, Sarah, from Blackburn.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57And these are today's contestants.
0:00:57 > 0:00:58APPLAUSE
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Thanks to all of you. We'll find out more about you
0:01:02 > 0:01:03throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09A haggard mountain Sherpa leading us up the dangerous way
0:01:09 > 0:01:10to the peak of Mount Wow.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13- It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15APPLAUSE Afternoon, everybody.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- How are you?- I'm very well indeed. - Excellent.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23- Now, we set a new record on the last show.- Did we?
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Five jackpot wins in a row.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Five jackpot wins in a row, never done it before.
0:01:28 > 0:01:29Obviously, we've never done six,
0:01:29 > 0:01:31so some pressure on today, but five in a row.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33David and Jo took home the jackpot last time.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36They beat Danny and Fareed, who were terrific.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38They played so well, played so well throughout.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41We discovered that Fareed is going to be the world's greatest lawyer.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44He's a law student. He's got just such a...forensic manner.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- He has.- You'll see. He's quite something.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49But they got knocked out in the head-to-head
0:01:49 > 0:01:51by two points on the last question.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53It was terrific stuff but then David and Jo, yeah,
0:01:53 > 0:01:55went on to win that money. Should be a good show today.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59The first question today, we've done one round like this before
0:01:59 > 0:02:03- and we enjoyed it so much I decided to do another one.- Oh, what fun.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06And, can I just say, is this the first time we've ever had
0:02:06 > 0:02:08someone from Oswaldtwistle on the show?
0:02:08 > 0:02:09- Oswaldtwistle?- Yeah.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13- I think it is, isn't it?- I want to get to the root of Oswaldtwistle.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17Why is that T still in there? Oswaldwistle would have done it.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- No, Oswaldtwistle sounds much better. - Oswaldtwistle is better.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23We're going to be talking about Oswaldtwistle a lot, I suspect.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26You bet we are. You bet! Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Now, Jo and David, as you'll have gathered,
0:02:28 > 0:02:31won the jackpot last time so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35There we are. If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37APPLAUSE
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Now, the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:43 > 0:02:45will be eliminated. That's the rule.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47That's the only thing you need to remember. Best of luck.
0:02:47 > 0:02:48Our first category today -
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Sport. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:02:55 > 0:02:56who's going to go second.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01And, whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05OK. And the question concerns -
0:03:10 > 0:03:13Sporting figures in haiku. There we are. Richard.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16That's right, on each board we're going to describe
0:03:16 > 0:03:17seven sporting figures to you,
0:03:17 > 0:03:20but we're describing them in the form of a Japanese haiku.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23That's a poem of five syllables, seven syllables, then five syllables.
0:03:23 > 0:03:24You have to tell us who they are.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27There's going to be 14 haikus in all to enjoy at home
0:03:27 > 0:03:29and 14 sporting figures to guess.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33- I tell you what else, it's going to be...enormous fun.- Oh!
0:03:33 > 0:03:36It's going to be terrific. It's also going to be very, very cultural.
0:03:36 > 0:03:41- Yes, cultural. And challenging. - Challenging, cultural.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- There's going to be a lot of cardio involved.- Very good.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45Well, let's reveal our haikus.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48I'm not going to wait any longer, don't know about you. Here they are.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Seven of them.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24I'll read those all again, slightly quicker.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- Sue, a warm welcome to Pointless. - Thank you.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52That face you're pulling tells me
0:04:52 > 0:04:56you are delighted with this round, which is good. What do you do, Sue?
0:04:56 > 0:04:58I'm happily retired now, thank you.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00What were you doing when you were unhappily in work?
0:05:00 > 0:05:04- I was a sub-postmistress. - A sub-postmistress?- Yes.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07- In your village?- Ian and I owned the Post Office in Quorn.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10Now, if I were you, I'd imagine you'd rather miss that, don't you?
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Yes, I do. - I mean, nice, you get all the...
0:05:13 > 0:05:15I mean... But you're the hub of all the gossip, of course.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- Afraid so, yeah. - Everything going on in Quorn, oh-ho!
0:05:18 > 0:05:20- I could write a bestseller. - You could write a haiku, I bet.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22LAUGHTER
0:05:22 > 0:05:26What have you done since you pulled down the postal shutter for the last time?
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Not a lot. I enjoy gardening, that's my hobby.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30I've got three dogs, I enjoy walking them.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Have to keep Ian in order
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- and that tends to be quite a full-time job, really.- I see.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39- OK, now, Sue, there you are.- OK.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Well, sport is not my subject at all.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44There's a couple I might know
0:05:44 > 0:05:46but one that I only really know is right,
0:05:46 > 0:05:50and that's the Tour de France winner, which is Bradley Wiggins.
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Bradley Wiggins, Sir Bradley Wiggins, says Sue.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56- Sorry!- Let's see how many of our 100 people said Bradley Wiggins.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02It's absolutely right.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05- 55. - APPLAUSE
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Not bad, gets us off to a good start, there, Sue. Well done.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Yeah, he's got seven Olympic medals to his name, Bradley Wiggins.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14The Dutch call him the banana with the sideburns.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Catchy.- Yeah, it is good, isn't it? - The banana?! Why?
0:06:19 > 0:06:23- Oh, in the yellow jumper.- Yeah. Yellow jumper, yeah.- Yellow jodhpur?
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- Yellow jersey.- Yellow jersey, sorry. That's right. Yellow jersey.
0:06:26 > 0:06:31- As you see, I'm au fait with the sport.- Oh, yeah.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Good, thanks very much indeed.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- So, now, Danny, welcome back.- Hello.
0:06:36 > 0:06:37Oh, head-to-head last time,
0:06:37 > 0:06:41what a performance we had from the Danny-Fareed team.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- Remind us what you do, Danny. - I'm a student.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47I study maths and economics at the University of Southampton.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49And what are your other hobbies, Danny?
0:06:49 > 0:06:51I'm a comedian. In a...
0:06:51 > 0:06:55No, I'm part of the Comedy Society at the University of Southampton.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Excellent, already, in your first year, you've become a leading
0:06:58 > 0:07:00- light of the Comedy Society. - I'm vice president next year.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03That's exciting. So, what do you do, do you put on stand-up shows,
0:07:03 > 0:07:05do you put on shows throughout the term?
0:07:05 > 0:07:08Yeah, we put on shows throughout the term. I've done...
0:07:08 > 0:07:10I've only really done a couple of stand-up shows, myself,
0:07:10 > 0:07:13but we write sketches, we perform sketches in sketch shows.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15We do quite a lot of improv games, as well.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19Excellent. Very good, indeed. Well, Danny, what about these haikus?
0:07:19 > 0:07:23- I am rubbish at haikus. - That's OK, what about sport?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- I am rubbish at sport.- OK, what do you think about this board?
0:07:26 > 0:07:29The only one I knew has gone.
0:07:30 > 0:07:31So, I'm going to try another one.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34My family are Scottish so they're probably going to shout at me
0:07:34 > 0:07:37cos I don't even think this person's Scottish. I've no idea.
0:07:37 > 0:07:38But the Scottish golfer,
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Rory McIlroy.
0:07:41 > 0:07:42LAUGHTER
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Rory McIlroy, the Scottish golfer. Famous...
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Famous bunker shot. Well.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51Let see if Rory McIlroy is right.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- No, I'm sorry.- Are you sure? - I'm sorry, I'm afraid...
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Yeah, I am sure, that's an incorrect answer,
0:08:01 > 0:08:05- scores you 100 points. - Yeah, not Scottish,
0:08:05 > 0:08:06not the first Briton to win the Masters.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09He is a golfer. He's got "Mc" in his name, so...
0:08:11 > 0:08:12He's some of the way there.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14He is some of the way there, quite.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17- Thank you very much indeed. Now, Richard, welcome.- Hi.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20- Congratulations. You're here with your fiancee.- I am.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23I mean, for being here, but congratulations on being engaged.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25- How nice. When are you getting married?- Next June.
0:08:25 > 0:08:30- Fabulous. How long have you been engaged for?- Um, six months.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33- Right, so quite a long engagement. - Yeah.- Quite a long...
0:08:33 > 0:08:35I'm sorry, I'm not saying anything.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39I'm just saying it's quite a long engagement, Richard.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41- Now, what do you do?- I work in IT.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43I'm a support engineer for a retail company.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- And what are your hobbies, Richard? - I'm a keen golfer.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50- I think I'm down to 19 at the moment.- Excellent.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Hopefully, down further in the summer.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Love playing football, watching football. Sport.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01- Movies, like to watch movies. - Are you a fan of wee Jock McIlroy?
0:09:01 > 0:09:03LAUGHTER
0:09:03 > 0:09:05A favourite of yours?
0:09:06 > 0:09:07OK, then, Richard.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09What are you going to go for from our board o' haikus?
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Well, when it said haikus I was a bit nervous,
0:09:12 > 0:09:16but the board's a bit better than I thought. I know a few.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18I can take a punt on one.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21But I'm going to play it reasonably safe, I think,
0:09:21 > 0:09:24and go with the world heavyweight champ, first pro to beat Ali,
0:09:24 > 0:09:26smokin' in the ring, is Joe Frazier.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Joe Frazier, says Richard. Let's see if that's right,
0:09:28 > 0:09:30let's see how many people said Joe Frazier.
0:09:33 > 0:09:34It's right.
0:09:39 > 0:09:4110, look at that.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43It's all moving in the right direction,
0:09:43 > 0:09:44lovely low score, there.
0:09:44 > 0:09:4510 for Joe Frazier.
0:09:47 > 0:09:48Here's a little haiku.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Congratulations If you got that one at home
0:09:51 > 0:09:53It scored you ten points.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Lovely. Look at that, look at that.
0:09:55 > 0:09:56APPLAUSE
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Weaving gold before our eyes, there.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Gayle, welcome to Pointless, lovely to have you here.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05What you do, Gayle?
0:10:05 > 0:10:08- I run an arts centre in Oswaldtwistle.- In Oswaldtwistle?
0:10:08 > 0:10:10- Yes.- Oswalt...
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Do you favour Oswaldtwistle when you say it or do you just
0:10:13 > 0:10:15go for Oswaldwistle, where the T is just sort of hidden?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18- Oswaldtwistle.- Oswaldtwistle, got to keep the twistle,
0:10:18 > 0:10:19got to keep the twistle in there.
0:10:19 > 0:10:24- And what happens in the arts centre? - Lots of singing, dancing, drama.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27- And do you partake in all of those? - Sometimes, yes. When I can.
0:10:27 > 0:10:31- Very good. When you're not managing the sessions.- I run the sessions.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34And what are your hobbies, aside from singing, dancing, drama?
0:10:34 > 0:10:36I play Scrabble, a lot.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40I don't have a lot of spare time so, when I do, I play Scrabble.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44In the giddy melange of Oswaldtwistle, it's all go.
0:10:44 > 0:10:45- It is.- Very good.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Well, this will help you out, as you know, a lot of anagrams
0:10:48 > 0:10:50and things like that in Pointless.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Obviously not here, we're on haikus
0:10:52 > 0:10:54but you're the last person to have that board.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57Do you fancy just talking us through it?
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- Oh, they're all guesses. - That's good, good enough.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04I think the gymnast would be, probably, Olga Korbut
0:11:04 > 0:11:05cos that's about that time.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10New Zealand winger, maybe, Jonah Lom...
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Jonah Lomu... I don't know.
0:11:12 > 0:11:17And I think the Moscow swimmer, the breaststroke, is Duncan Goodhew,
0:11:17 > 0:11:20so that's the one that I'm most sure of.
0:11:20 > 0:11:21You're going for Duncan Goodhew?
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said Duncan Goodhew.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28It's absolutely right.
0:11:28 > 0:11:3155, our high correct answer - you've passed that.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33- APPLAUSE - 32, very good, well done.
0:11:35 > 0:11:3732 for Duncan Goodhew.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Well done, Gayle, I think you were right to go for a safer one,
0:11:40 > 0:11:42given there's 100 points on the board.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46But of the two you mentioned, Olga Korbut would have scored you 100
0:11:46 > 0:11:50- cos it's Nadia Comaneci.- I didn't... - Yeah, would have scored you...
0:11:52 > 0:11:53..13 points.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Jonah Lomu, however, would have been a terrific answer,
0:11:55 > 0:11:58would have scored you 8 points. But not worth the risk.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02The female snowboarder was the wonderful Jenny Jones.
0:12:02 > 0:12:03She would have scored you 7,
0:12:03 > 0:12:04and the best answer on the board
0:12:04 > 0:12:08is the Scottish golfer and it's Sandy Lyle.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Sandy Lyle is the answer there, 4 points.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Thank you, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Let's take a look at those scores. 10, the best score of that pass,
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Richard, well done. Putting you and Jenny
0:12:17 > 0:12:20in a very strong position. Then up to 32, Gayle and Sarah.
0:12:20 > 0:12:2255, Sue and Ian.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26And then Danny and Fareed, our returning pair, up there on 100.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Oh, dear. Now, Fareed, you know what we need from you.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31A lovely low score. Best of luck with that.
0:12:31 > 0:12:32We're going to come back down the line,
0:12:32 > 0:12:35can the second players please step up to the podium.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39OK, well, let's put seven more haikus up on the board
0:12:39 > 0:12:41and here they come.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08I'll read those one last time.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32- Sarah, welcome. Great to have you here.- Hello.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36- And what do you do, Sarah? - I'm retired.- What DID you do, Sarah?
0:13:36 > 0:13:38I worked in a sixth form college in Blackburn.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40- Teaching or...?- Yes.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43- Teaching, mainly. Bit of management later.- Right you are.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46And what do you do in your retirement, Sarah?
0:13:46 > 0:13:50I travel, I do crosswords, I go to the gym, I'm learning Italian.
0:13:50 > 0:13:51Good stuff.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53OK, listen, you're there on 32, the high-scorers are Fareed
0:13:53 > 0:13:55and Danny on 100.
0:13:55 > 0:13:5867 or less is what you require.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02I'm going to go for the great F1 driver.
0:14:03 > 0:14:07- And I'm going to go from Nigel Mansell.- Nigel Mansell, says Sarah.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Here comes your red lines. Can I tell you something interesting?
0:14:10 > 0:14:13The technology has just changed like that, as it will.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16As of the last show, I've noticed that our red line, when it comes in,
0:14:16 > 0:14:20it used to work its way up from the bottom and now it just appears.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23- No, way.- Yeah, listen, it's just happened.- Are you kidding me?
0:14:23 > 0:14:25I should have brought it up then.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29But I was so excited about the potential fifth consecutive jackpot win...
0:14:29 > 0:14:30I meant to say cos I keep getting that thing,
0:14:30 > 0:14:34"Do you want to update the column?" I always go, "No, I can't be bothered."
0:14:34 > 0:14:35"Later, remind me later." Yeah.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37And I actually said I would, and that's why...
0:14:37 > 0:14:40Then it took about 14 hours and that's the... That's nice.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42Well, it's coming on... I keep waiting for it to come up
0:14:42 > 0:14:43like it used to in days of yore.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46I'm going to say it's given us improved functionality.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48- I'm going to say that, as well. - And increased security features.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Certainly has.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53I'm terrible cos I keep forgetting the password.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Well, the security question, I keep getting them wrong.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58So, I have to come up with a new one.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01I can't even remember what my favourite subject at school was.
0:15:01 > 0:15:02See, cos I originally...
0:15:02 > 0:15:05- It was originally Central African Republic was the password!- Yeah.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09- That's how the Latvians got in.- But then that was too many characters, so then it was
0:15:09 > 0:15:12"Central African Repub" and then you had to have characters AND numbers.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16- Yeah.- So, it was "Central African Repub19" - a prime number...
0:15:16 > 0:15:18and now I've forgotten what it is.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Because now you've got to have capitals in it as well.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23So, it's got to be capitals as well. So, now I've got
0:15:23 > 0:15:25"Central African Repub19...
0:15:25 > 0:15:28- "..Ouagadougou." LAUGHTER - Ah, well...
0:15:28 > 0:15:32Let's hope that is enough of a firewall to keep us absolutely clean.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Although, now I've just said it!
0:15:34 > 0:15:36LAUGHTER
0:15:36 > 0:15:39I don't think anyone was listening. It's fine.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Erm, OK, so... Nigel Mansell.
0:15:42 > 0:15:47There's your red line. Ah, feels like nearly a year ago, that!
0:15:47 > 0:15:51Let's see how far down the column you can get with Nigel Mansell.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54Will you get below the red line and into the next round?
0:15:56 > 0:15:58It is right.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00And you are through. Very well done indeed.
0:16:02 > 0:16:0336 for Nigel Mansell.
0:16:03 > 0:16:0546 is your total.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08Yeah, very well played. 31 Grand Prix wins in all for Nigel Mansell.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11He had to wait till his 13th season before he became world champion.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- That's patient.- He is patient. Although, incredibly fast as well.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18- So, it's a mixture. A good mix.- Yeah. Good. Thank you very much indeed.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21- Now, Jenny.- Hello!- Welcome. Great to have you here.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24- What do you do, Jenny?- I'm an IT test analyst for a retail company.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28- Do you work in the same place? - I work... I sit behind him.- Yeah.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30I see. So, how long have you known him?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Erm, about six years now.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35And how long had you known him before you started going out?
0:16:35 > 0:16:39- About a year or so, maybe.- And did you like him from the word go?
0:16:39 > 0:16:40Eh...
0:16:40 > 0:16:43- Yeah!- Talk amongst yourselves. Richard - talk amongst yourselves!
0:16:43 > 0:16:47No, I did. I thought he was really, really nice. I thought he was really friendly.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49He always took the mickey out of my northern accent.
0:16:49 > 0:16:54- Let's hear your accent, Richard. - A'right, luv? - LAUGHTER
0:16:54 > 0:16:57- Put up, put on...- It is endearing, isn't it?
0:16:57 > 0:17:02It is, it's very endearing. Very endearing indeed. And what are your hobbies, Jenny?
0:17:02 > 0:17:05Erm, like cinema. I love going to the theatre.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07I enjoy singing.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11Just loads of different things. I enjoy, erm, some sport - I enjoy football.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14I don't enjoy all sport, like Richard does.
0:17:14 > 0:17:15OK, are you enjoying this round?
0:17:15 > 0:17:19- Erm, the one I was actually going to go for has just gone.- OK.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21So, I am going to go for...
0:17:21 > 0:17:24The Jamaican sprinter, Usain Bolt.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Usain Bolt. OK, there's your red line.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29You want to be scoring 89 or less. That's what it looks like.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32Let's see how many people said Usain Bolt.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38It's right and you're through.
0:17:38 > 0:17:4154. That's a high one there.
0:17:41 > 0:17:4354, taking your total up to 64.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Well played, Jenny. Yeah, Usain Bolt.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48He's just taken sprinting into a whole new dimension.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51The records he's broken, the way he does it. An extraordinary athlete.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55Mm. Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Fareed.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59Anything might happen. The game is not yet over for you.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03But what we absolutely need from you is a low, low score.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05I'm not sure I can deliver.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07OK, well, before that, Fareed, remind us of what you do.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10Obviously, we know that you're studying to be a lawyer.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Yeah, I'm a law student at the University of Southampton.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15Law student exceptionnel! Yes!
0:18:15 > 0:18:18And, so, in your spare time, what do you like to do, Fareed?
0:18:18 > 0:18:20I like acting and I like hockey.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23OK, have you done lots of student productions while at university?
0:18:23 > 0:18:27I've done a couple at university but mostly back at school.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Erm, obviously I have to focus on my law work - in order to be the best!
0:18:30 > 0:18:33You've got to focus on your law work, you know. Exactly. Exactly.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37Well, there you are. The high scorer on 100.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40What are you going to go for on this board?
0:18:40 > 0:18:43I think sport was the round we were worried about, actually.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46You know, Usain Bolt was probably the only answer I could give.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49So, I'm going to name a basketballer.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52And I'm going to go with Michael Jordan.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Michael Jordan, says Fareed.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58No red line for you, I'm afraid, as you are the high scorers.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02But let's see how far down the column you can get with Michael Jordan. Is it right?
0:19:05 > 0:19:06Ooh! I'm sorry, Fareed!
0:19:06 > 0:19:10An incorrect answer there, scoring you 100 points,
0:19:10 > 0:19:12- taking you up to 200.- Sorry, Fareed.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14It was actually Rory McIlroy.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17LAUGHTER
0:19:19 > 0:19:22- That's gutting, isn't it?- Oh...
0:19:22 > 0:19:25- Thank you very much indeed. Now, Ian.- Yes?
0:19:25 > 0:19:30- Welcome to the show.- Thank you. - And what do you do, Ian? - Well, I'm retired now.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32What did you do?
0:19:32 > 0:19:37I was, for 15, the last 15 years at the Post Office, I was the gofer.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40- Ah, you were the gofer! I thought you were the over-postman!- No, no.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44Sue being postmistress, it was, can you just go for this?
0:19:44 > 0:19:46- Can you just go for that? - LAUGHTER
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Wow, so it's basically you counting all
0:19:49 > 0:19:52the coppers into piles and doing all that and bagging them up.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- Yeah, yeah.- So lovely to have retired from that!- Certainly.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58- And what sort of gofering are you doing for Sue these days? - SHE LAUGHS
0:19:58 > 0:20:00Oh, whatever she tells me to do, basically.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03I don't know about that!
0:20:03 > 0:20:05No, I do some DIY,
0:20:05 > 0:20:09the heavy gardening jobs that she decides she doesn't want to do.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13- I do it.- OK! Ian, I'm going to stop you right there.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15More for your sake than anyone else's.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17- Before I dig too big a hole! - This board is all yours.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21Do you want to go through it and see how many answers you can get?
0:20:21 > 0:20:24There's only two of them that I think I know.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27The top one I'm sure is Denise Lewis.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31And I think the one I'm going to go for is the javelin thrower,
0:20:31 > 0:20:35- which I think is Steve Backley. - Steve Backley, says Ian.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Steve Backley, no red line for you, for the lovely reason that you're already through.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41But let's see how many people said Steve Backley.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46It's right.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49That's a very, very good answer, Ian,
0:20:49 > 0:20:52cos look, it goes all the way down to 9.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55The best score of the round! Very well done indeed.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58And 64 is the joint lowest score of the round as well as your total.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Well played, Ian. Terrific answer. Let's fill in the rest of this board.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03You were right about Denise Lewis.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06She would have scored you a few more points. She would have scored 11.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09Now, the basketball player is not Michael Jordan.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13It's Magic Johnson, I'm afraid. That's unlucky. Three points for him.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17The Irish jockey is Katie Walsh. That would have scored you 6.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21And the badminton player is Nathan Robertson. He would have scored you 5.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25- So, Magic Johnson actually the best answer on the board. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28So, at the end of our first round, the pair heading home with
0:21:28 > 0:21:31their high score of 200, I don't believe it, it's Fareed and Danny.
0:21:31 > 0:21:32This wasn't in the script at all!
0:21:32 > 0:21:36- No. I wouldn't be acting like this if it were.- Oh, I'm so sorry.
0:21:36 > 0:21:40We have to say goodbye. I mean, a stunning performance from you last time round,
0:21:40 > 0:21:41through to the head-to-head.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44We had high hopes of you as finalists this time.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48- At least it was 200. A good way to go.- I guess it is. Well, anyway, great to have you on.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51Fareed and Danny, thank you so much for playing. Fareed and Danny.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53- Great contestants! - APPLAUSE
0:21:53 > 0:21:57But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two!
0:22:01 > 0:22:03OK, so three pairs remain.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Obviously at the end of this round,
0:22:05 > 0:22:08we will have to say goodbye to another pair. Well, very well done.
0:22:08 > 0:22:12Jenny and Richard, Ian and Sue, you are tied on 64 there,
0:22:12 > 0:22:13our low scorers.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17Ian, you were the lowest individual scorer so well done, and actually, I have to say,
0:22:17 > 0:22:20nothing wrong with Gayle and Sarah's performance on the far podium.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21It was all very close indeed.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25Best of luck to all three pairs for Round Two. Our category is...
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:22:30 > 0:22:32who is going to go second?
0:22:32 > 0:22:35And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many capital cities
0:22:44 > 0:22:49beginning with C, I, T or Y as they could.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51Capital cities beginning with C, I, T and Y. Richard.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54Yes, we're simply looking for any world capital
0:22:54 > 0:22:57whose English name begins with a C, an I, a T or a Y, please.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59Obviously it has to be a capital of a country
0:22:59 > 0:23:02that is a sovereign state that is a member of the UN in its own right.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05- Very, very best of luck. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07So, Sue, we come to you first.
0:23:09 > 0:23:10Er...
0:23:12 > 0:23:13I think I'm going to say Cardiff.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Cardiff, says Sue.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Let's see if that's right, Cardiff,
0:23:19 > 0:23:21and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, Sue.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33100 points that scores you.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36Sorry, it's always been the same since episode one of Pointless.
0:23:36 > 0:23:41Our definition of country is the UK, rather than England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales
0:23:41 > 0:23:43- so Cardiff not allowed. It's a shame. - It's a shame.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46- It's clearly a capital, but not a capital of a country as we would define it.- Indeed.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51- Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Jenny, we come to you.- Erm...
0:23:53 > 0:23:58- I can feel his eyes boring into the side of my head! - LAUGHTER
0:23:58 > 0:23:59Erm...
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Trinidad. I don't think that's right, but...
0:24:03 > 0:24:05It's not right, judging by Richard's reaction.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08His eyes are now boring into the floor, if it's any consolation.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10I've had a complete brain freeze.
0:24:10 > 0:24:15Trinidad! Well, let's get this over with. Trinidad, is it right?
0:24:19 > 0:24:20Ooh, I'm afraid not.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22Trinidad is an incorrect answer, scoring you 100 points.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25- It's going very well.- Isn't it?
0:24:25 > 0:24:28Yeah, Trinidad and Tobago is a country, of course,
0:24:28 > 0:24:32- and Port of Spain is the capital. - Now, Sarah.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Thank goodness I've had time to think.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38You've also been given a couple of other helpers as well along the way!
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Fingers crossed, I'm going to say Tokyo.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Tokyo, says Sarah. Let's see how many of our 100 people said Tokyo.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51It's right.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57- 19. - APPLAUSE
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Very well done indeed, 19 for Tokyo.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04It's got more Michelin stars than any other city in the world, Tokyo.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06- I didn't know that.- Yeah.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10And it's been attacked and destroyed by Godzilla 28 times officially.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12You'd have thought they'd have learned by now.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14- You would think, wouldn't you? - Yeah. There we are.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Let's take a look at those scores.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19Sarah and Gayle looking very strong at this stage, I wonder why,
0:25:19 > 0:25:22and then we travel up to 100,
0:25:22 > 0:25:26where we find Jenny and Richard and Sue and Ian.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Best of luck. Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:25:32 > 0:25:34So, Gayle, any capital city, remember,
0:25:34 > 0:25:37beginning with the letters C, I, T or Y.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41I was absolutely dreading this, I really was.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45The only thing I can think of is Istanbul.
0:25:45 > 0:25:50Istanbul! Istanbul, says Gayle. Here is your red line.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53If you can score 80 or less, you are definitely in the head-to-head.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56Let's see how many of our 100 people said Istanbul.
0:26:00 > 0:26:05Oh, I'm afraid not a capital city, Gayle. It scores you 100 points.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09It's opened the door, hasn't it? It's not the capital of Turkey, Istanbul.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11Ankara is the capital of Turkey.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14There are people at home who would kill for this round.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16People love their capitals and stuff like that.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20This is the sort of round that could have added a bit of money to the jackpot.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22- Certainly.- It doesn't look like it's going that way.
0:26:22 > 0:26:26Although I think, Ian, I think up those short sleeves of his,
0:26:26 > 0:26:30he has a couple of doozies.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32OK, now, Richard.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Yeah, not too bad, not too bad.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38I've got a few in mind.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42- I'm going to go for Tallinn. - Tallinn, says Richard.
0:26:42 > 0:26:43Tallinn, there we are.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46Now, you have a red line and it's there.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48You want to be scoring 18 or less.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Let's see how many of our 100 people said Tallinn.
0:26:53 > 0:26:54It's right.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01That will do the job. Very well done indeed!
0:27:01 > 0:27:048 for Tallinn sees you comfortably through to the next round.
0:27:04 > 0:27:05Well done!
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Good mopping-up operation there, Richard, 108 your total.
0:27:08 > 0:27:09Yeah, the capital of Estonia.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11And as IT workers, you'll be interested to know
0:27:11 > 0:27:14it's the headquarters of Nato's cyber defence industry.
0:27:14 > 0:27:19Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Ian. Ian, this is your moment.
0:27:19 > 0:27:2118 or less is what we need.
0:27:21 > 0:27:25I've got two answers, one I think is higher than the other.
0:27:25 > 0:27:29- I'm going for Tehran.- Tehran, says Ian. There's your red line.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32Get below that with Tehran and you're in the head-to-head.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Let's see how many people said Tehran.
0:27:37 > 0:27:38It's right.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44Very well done indeed, you're through.
0:27:44 > 0:27:45Look at that, 12 for Tehran.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47APPLAUSE
0:27:50 > 0:27:54No gofer at all, Ian. A hero, that's what you are, a hero.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56112 is your total, you are through to the head-to-head.
0:27:56 > 0:27:57Yeah, the capital of Iran.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00- What a turnaround on the second pass that was, wasn't it?- Yeah.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04You'd have had a lot of money on podium three going out there, I think.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Anyone have any others, any riskier ones they were going to go for?
0:28:06 > 0:28:10- I thought Yemen. - That's a country, I'm afraid.
0:28:10 > 0:28:14- I thought it was a capital. - Casablanca?- It's not a capital.
0:28:14 > 0:28:15I would honestly give up now.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17LAUGHTER
0:28:17 > 0:28:20- Canberra?- Canberra is up there.
0:28:20 > 0:28:24It would have scored 30 points, actually the biggest scorer of all.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27The capital of Morocco is Rabat and the capital of Yemen is Sana'a,
0:28:27 > 0:28:30but I'm afraid not answers here. There are four pointless answers.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34Very well done, anyone at home who said Chisinau,
0:28:34 > 0:28:36which is the capital of Moldova.
0:28:36 > 0:28:40Tarawa, which is the capital of Kiribati, very well done if you got that.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42Tegucigalpa, which is the capital of Honduras
0:28:42 > 0:28:46and Thimphu, which is the capital of Bhutan.
0:28:46 > 0:28:47There are some low scorers.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49I won't read out all the countries.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52Castries, Colombo, Yerevan, Yamoussoukro and Conakry,
0:28:52 > 0:28:54all those would have scored you 1,
0:28:54 > 0:28:58and 2 points for Yaounde, Tirana, Cape Town and Tashkent.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00Tbilisi also a good answer with four points.
0:29:00 > 0:29:03So, at the end of our second round,
0:29:03 > 0:29:07the pair who are heading home with a high score of 119, I'm afraid, it's Gayle and Sarah.
0:29:07 > 0:29:11Oh, dear! What a turnaround, as Richard said.
0:29:11 > 0:29:15- It was a TURKEY of an answer! - Yeah, oh... - LAUGHTER
0:29:15 > 0:29:16There we go, there we go.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19We've got that and so much to look forward to next time you come back.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21But it's been lovely having you on the show.
0:29:21 > 0:29:22Thank you very much, Gayle and Sarah!
0:29:22 > 0:29:26APPLAUSE
0:29:26 > 0:29:27But for Jenny and Richard and Ian and Sue,
0:29:27 > 0:29:29it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32APPLAUSE
0:29:35 > 0:29:38Congratulations, Jenny and Richard, Ian and Sue.
0:29:38 > 0:29:39You're one step closer to the final
0:29:39 > 0:29:41and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:29:41 > 0:29:43which currently stands at...
0:29:44 > 0:29:46Well done, both of you!
0:29:46 > 0:29:47Both newcomers to the show,
0:29:47 > 0:29:50both straight through to the head-to-head.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52We've had some great answers from you individually,
0:29:52 > 0:29:55some surprisingly high scores as well.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58But from here on in, you can chat before you give your answers.
0:29:58 > 0:30:01Let's hope it should be a combination of the best of all your answers
0:30:01 > 0:30:03and I think it'll be very exciting.
0:30:03 > 0:30:05Best of luck to both players, let's play the head-to-head.
0:30:05 > 0:30:09APPLAUSE
0:30:11 > 0:30:14OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:30:17 > 0:30:18Space Travellers, Richard.
0:30:18 > 0:30:23I'm going to show you pictures of five people who have travelled in space. Can you identify them?
0:30:23 > 0:30:25OK, let's reveal our five space travellers, and here they come.
0:30:25 > 0:30:26We have...
0:30:49 > 0:30:51There we are, five space travellers.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54Jenny and Richard, you've been our low scorers throughout,
0:30:54 > 0:30:56so you will go first.
0:30:56 > 0:31:00- Is A Buzz Aldrin?- I don't know.
0:31:02 > 0:31:08- OK, we have no idea.- No, it's not the best round for us at all.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11Because I know two astronauts,
0:31:11 > 0:31:14I'm going to take a punt on one of them and A - Buzz Aldrin.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19A - Buzz Aldrin. A - Buzz Aldrin.
0:31:19 > 0:31:23Now then, Ian and Sue, the board is all yours. Talk us through it.
0:31:23 > 0:31:25Well, I wish we could.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27I'm sure I know the first names of the two females,
0:31:27 > 0:31:30but I can think of the surnames.
0:31:30 > 0:31:35- The only one I'm going for is C - Yuri Gagarin.- Yuri Gagarin, C.
0:31:36 > 0:31:42Let's see, OK. Now, Jenny and Richard went for Buzz...
0:31:42 > 0:31:46- I nearly said Buzz Lightyear! - LAUGHTER
0:31:46 > 0:31:48- Oh, dear!- I would have known him.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52- I know that one!- He might be one of them, you never know.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55Jenny and Richard have gone for Buzz Aldrin for A.
0:31:55 > 0:31:56Let's see if that's right and if so,
0:31:56 > 0:31:59let's see how many of our 100 people said Buzz Aldrin.
0:32:04 > 0:32:09Not Buzz Aldrin. Now, Ian and Sue have said Yuri Gagarin is C.
0:32:09 > 0:32:10Let's see if that's right
0:32:10 > 0:32:13and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:32:16 > 0:32:17It's right.
0:32:22 > 0:32:2326.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26- APPLAUSE - But most crucially, it was right, which means,
0:32:26 > 0:32:30Ian and Sue, after one question, you are up 1-0.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32A, I suspect, is the other astronaut you know.
0:32:32 > 0:32:35He's one of the most famous people in human history,
0:32:35 > 0:32:38- but only 12 points for Neil Armstrong.- No!
0:32:40 > 0:32:45B is the first Briton ever in space.
0:32:45 > 0:32:47It would have scored you 9 points.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49There is Gagarin, the first man in space.
0:32:49 > 0:32:55D is the most experienced British-born astronaut of all.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58And E is the first woman in space.
0:33:02 > 0:33:06Thank you very much indeed, Richard. So here comes your second question.
0:33:06 > 0:33:08Jenny and Richard, you have to win this one to stay in the game
0:33:08 > 0:33:10so best of luck. It concerns...
0:33:13 > 0:33:15Hitchcock Films, Richard.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18We're going to give you five incomplete titles of Hitchcock Films now.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20We need you to fill in the blanks, please.
0:33:20 > 0:33:23OK, let's reveal our five Hitchcock films, and here they are.
0:33:38 > 0:33:41Ian and Sue, it's over to you.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43- Shall we do that, then? - Yeah, go on, then.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46I think were going to go for Torn Curtain.
0:33:46 > 0:33:49Torn Curtain, say Ian and Sue.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51Now, Jenny and Richard, the board is all yours.
0:33:51 > 0:33:56- Do you want to talk us through it? - No! - LAUGHTER
0:33:56 > 0:34:00Certainly another not very good round for us.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03Shall we take a punt at North By South?
0:34:03 > 0:34:09- We'll take a bit of a guess - North By South.- North By South.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12OK, Ian and Sue, you have gone for Torn Curtain.
0:34:12 > 0:34:13Let's see if that's right
0:34:13 > 0:34:15and if it is, let's see how many people said that.
0:34:17 > 0:34:19It's right.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27- 20. - APPLAUSE
0:34:27 > 0:34:2920 for Torn Curtain.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33Now, Jenny and Richard have gone for North By South.
0:34:33 > 0:34:37Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said that.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43Oh, not North By South, I'm afraid,
0:34:43 > 0:34:45which means, Ian and Sue, very well done.
0:34:45 > 0:34:49After only two questions, you are straight through to the final, 2-0.
0:34:49 > 0:34:53Yes, very big scorer, that first one. It is of course North By Northwest.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56It would have scored you 69 points.
0:34:56 > 0:34:57It's The Lady Vanishes.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03This is his last film, his last film to be released,
0:35:03 > 0:35:06Family Plot is the answer there.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10And the bottom one is Juno And The Paycock.
0:35:10 > 0:35:14I think that might be the first time I've said "paycock" on Pointless.
0:35:14 > 0:35:16- I think it is, yes, it is. - And that was the second.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24I said Juno And The Paycock, that was the first.
0:35:24 > 0:35:28- Oh, I see what you mean, yes, yes. - Then I said, "That's the first time I've said, 'paycock'."
0:35:28 > 0:35:31- Now I've said it four times. - You are clocking up the paycocks.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34- Now you've said it once. 4-1 to me. - OK. Paycock, paycock, paycock.
0:35:34 > 0:35:38- Oh, look at that!- 4-4.- Just one more to equalise. Paycock! Oh, dear!
0:35:38 > 0:35:43- That's 5-4, but it's first to six. Paycock, paycock.- Oh, no!
0:35:43 > 0:35:47- Got to be gutted with that.- 6-5 in Battle of the Paycocks.- Look at that!
0:35:47 > 0:35:49Oh, 7-5!
0:35:49 > 0:35:51Hang on! OK, there we are.
0:35:51 > 0:35:55So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round are Jenny and Richard.
0:35:55 > 0:35:59- North by Northwest, that not ring a bell? - BOTH: It does now!
0:35:59 > 0:36:00It's always a very difficult thing
0:36:00 > 0:36:05when you're standing there behind the podium, I know, the pressure does make the things disappear.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08You've done so well today. We'll expect great things next time we see you,
0:36:08 > 0:36:10but thanks very much in the meantime, Jenny and Richard.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:36:13 > 0:36:16But for Ian and Sue, it's now time for our Pointless Final.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22Congratulations, Ian and Sue.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24You've fought off all the competition
0:36:24 > 0:36:26and you have won our coveted Pointless Trophy.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34You have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:36:34 > 0:36:38and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands there at...
0:36:39 > 0:36:43Well, very well done! What a solid performance.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46- Well, I think I was saved, actually. - Well, you've been helped.
0:36:46 > 0:36:47You've certainly been helped.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49But no, you've been nice low scorers each time
0:36:49 > 0:36:53and then 2-0 in the head-to-head, no denying that.
0:36:53 > 0:36:55Very strong performance there.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57What would you like to see come up in this last round?
0:36:57 > 0:37:00I say that like I'm going to produce it for you. I'm not.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03Well, for me, I'd like to see something to do with plants
0:37:03 > 0:37:06or dogs or food, something like that.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09- Ian?- Rugby? - LAUGHTER
0:37:09 > 0:37:11OK. Well, as always, you get to choose your category
0:37:11 > 0:37:14from the four we've put up on the board for you.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17Let's hope there's something up there that you like the look of.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Today's selection is...
0:37:24 > 0:37:27- I think so.- I think there's only one choice.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30I think there's only one choice. I'm lost on Cult and Architecture.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33I think it's going to have to be Cliff.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36- It's going to be Cliff Richard. - I think so.
0:37:36 > 0:37:38We're looking for any of the following, please.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41We're looking for any of the tracks on Cliff's 100th album,
0:37:41 > 0:37:44The Fabulous Rock 'N' Roll Songbook, released in 2013.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47Oh, it's called The Fabulous Rock 'N' Roll Songbook!
0:37:47 > 0:37:50- I thought that was your little verdict on it.- Not so much.
0:37:50 > 0:37:54We are looking for any of Cliff Richard's number-one singles.
0:37:54 > 0:37:57Double A-sides count as separate answers.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00We are looking for any feature film made for cinema release
0:38:00 > 0:38:02for which Cliff Richard received an acting credit,
0:38:02 > 0:38:06and those last two are up to February 2014.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09Tracks from the Songbook, number-one singles and feature film credits.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11Very best of luck.
0:38:11 > 0:38:15OK, thanks very much. As always, you've got up to a minute to come up with three answers.
0:38:15 > 0:38:18If you're going to walk away with that jackpot of £1,000,
0:38:18 > 0:38:21- one of those answers has to be pointless. Are you ready? - BOTH: Yes.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26Your time starts now.
0:38:26 > 0:38:30Films, you've got Summer Holiday, The Young Ones.
0:38:30 > 0:38:34His first one, I'm sure was Expresso Bongo, which was very early on.
0:38:34 > 0:38:39Number ones, you have Living Doll, Travellin' Light...
0:38:39 > 0:38:42- Travellin' Light, that would be a good one.- Erm...
0:38:43 > 0:38:48Oh, God. There is When The Girl In Your Arms Is The Girl In Your Heart.
0:38:48 > 0:38:51- OK.- The Girl In Your Heart Is The Girl In Your Arms.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53Summer Holiday, obviously, the musical.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56Well, let's go for Expresso Bongo.
0:38:56 > 0:39:00Yeah. Travellin' Light, I think, is a better one than Living Doll.
0:39:00 > 0:39:04- And that other one? - Well, I'm not sure about that one.
0:39:04 > 0:39:08I can't think of that one, the other one would have to be...
0:39:08 > 0:39:10Erm, oh...
0:39:11 > 0:39:15It's on one of his later albums, I can't think of it now.
0:39:15 > 0:39:1610 seconds left.
0:39:16 > 0:39:20- I think I'll have to do... - The Young Ones.- The Young Ones, OK.
0:39:20 > 0:39:21That's fine, yep.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24OK, sounds like you've arrived at your answers
0:39:24 > 0:39:28and your time is now up. So what are those answers going to be?
0:39:28 > 0:39:34Film credits are The Young Ones and Expresso Bongo.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37- UK number ones - Travellin' Light. - Travellin' Light.
0:39:37 > 0:39:42Now, of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:42 > 0:39:44- Expresso Bongo. - Expresso Bongo we put last.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46- Least likely to be pointless? - The Young Ones.
0:39:46 > 0:39:50OK, let's put those answers up on the board in that order, and here they are.
0:39:50 > 0:39:55We've got...
0:39:55 > 0:39:57There they are. Well, very best of luck.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59Three good answers on the board there.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02Remember, only one of them has to be pointless for you to win the jackpot of £1,000.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05What would you do if you won that, Ian?
0:40:05 > 0:40:08Well, we're off on a family holiday next week
0:40:08 > 0:40:13so it's certainly going to let us have a very good family holiday.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16That would be wonderful. Sue, anything you'd like to add to that?
0:40:16 > 0:40:18No, we've just had a new granddaughter
0:40:18 > 0:40:20- so I think we might spoil her a bit. - Lovely.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22OK, well, very best of luck, as I say.
0:40:22 > 0:40:25The Young Ones was probably the one you thought was least likely to pointless.
0:40:25 > 0:40:29Let's just put that one to the test first. Is it pointless for £1,000?
0:40:30 > 0:40:33- I don't think so.- I don't think so.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36Well, it's right.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38We were looking for Cliff Richard film credits
0:40:38 > 0:40:40and The Young Ones is certainly one of those.
0:40:40 > 0:40:44Down it goes through the 20s. Into the teens...
0:40:44 > 0:40:45Ooh, yes, 12.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48APPLAUSE
0:40:48 > 0:40:51- I thought it would be higher than that.- There we are.
0:40:51 > 0:40:5412, nothing wrong with that. A perfectly good score.
0:40:54 > 0:40:57Not pointless, though. Only two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59Your next answer was Travellin' Light.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02In this case, we were looking for number-one singles by Cliff Richard.
0:41:02 > 0:41:05It has to be right. You sure it was number one?
0:41:07 > 0:41:09I'm doubting myself now.
0:41:09 > 0:41:10Well, it has to be number one
0:41:10 > 0:41:12and then it has to be pointless for you to win.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15Let's see, for £1,000, how many people said Travellin' Light.
0:41:20 > 0:41:21It is right.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23Your first answer was The Young Ones,
0:41:23 > 0:41:25which took us all the way down to 12.
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Travellin' Light now takes us down through the 20s
