0:00:20 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:24 > 0:00:26Hello! I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:26 > 0:00:29the game where we aim for the obscure and ignore the obvious.
0:00:29 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36And couple number one.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38Hi, I'm Richard. This is my fiance, Jenny,
0:00:38 > 0:00:39and we're from Watford.
0:00:39 > 0:00:40Couple number two.
0:00:40 > 0:00:44Hello. I'm Jo, this is my mother, Andrea. We're from East Sussex.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Couple number three.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Hi, I'm Elliott and this is my brother Tim,
0:00:47 > 0:00:49and we're from Southend, in Essex.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51And finally, couple number four.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Hi. I'm Sarah from Blackburn
0:00:53 > 0:00:56and this my friend Gayle from Oswaldtwistle.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58And these are today's contestants.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02- APPLAUSE - Thanks very much, all of you.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05We'll find out more about you as the show goes along.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10When he sits in that chair, he's the smartest man in London.
0:01:10 > 0:01:11Then when he stands behind it,
0:01:11 > 0:01:14he's the third largest natural structure in the United Kingdom.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Hiya. Hi, everybody.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22- Good afternoon to you.- And to you.
0:01:22 > 0:01:27We have now had six jackpot wins in a row.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- Don't even.- In a row.- Yeah, I know. - Remember the old days
0:01:30 > 0:01:32when we got the jackpot up to 25 grand and all sorts of things?
0:01:32 > 0:01:36- Yeah.- Six in a row. Incredible stuff for Iain and Sue last time.
0:01:36 > 0:01:37They did very, very well.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Coming back from that show, Jenny and Richard who got knocked out
0:01:40 > 0:01:42in the head-to-head, very unfortunate to do so.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46And Gayle and Sarah are back as well. Got knocked out in Round Two.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Hopefully we'll see a bit more of you.
0:01:48 > 0:01:49- Got two boys from Southend.- Hmm.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52Now, Southend has something in common, for me,
0:01:52 > 0:01:53with Newcastle and Birkenhead,
0:01:53 > 0:01:55which they're my three favourite places
0:01:55 > 0:01:58to hear someone who's from that place saying the name of it.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Southend is always... LOCAL ACCENT: ..Southend.
0:02:00 > 0:02:01LOCAL ACCENT: Birkenhead.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03It's always good. LOCAL ACCENT: And Newcastle.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Those are my favourite places that I like hearing the accents
0:02:06 > 0:02:07of the people that live in them.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Dudley not getting a look in?
0:02:09 > 0:02:12- Oh, and Dudley.- And Dudley. - Absolutely lovely.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15- Thank you very much indeed, Richard.- Pleasure.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17So, as you've gathered, Iain and Sue won the jackpot last time,
0:02:17 > 0:02:21so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000. There it is.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Let's see if we can have seven wins on the trot.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25If everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27APPLAUSE
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Now, remember, at all times, the pair with the highest score
0:02:33 > 0:02:35at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37That's the rule.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Just do everything you can to make sure that's not your pair.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Our first category today is...
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Hit Singles. Can you all decide in your pairs
0:02:47 > 0:02:49who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:02:49 > 0:02:52And, whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57OK. And the question concerns...
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Songs For Bedtime. Richard.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06On each board we're going to show you the names of seven UK top 20 singles
0:03:06 > 0:03:08all of which contain the word "sleep" or "dream".
0:03:08 > 0:03:11We've also given you the initials of the act who had a top 20 hit
0:03:11 > 0:03:13with them. Can you tell us who that act is, please?
0:03:13 > 0:03:1514 in all to have a go at home.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20We're looking for the acts who had hits with these sleep-related songs.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22And here is our first pool of seven.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27ALEXANDER READS BOARD
0:03:43 > 0:03:44I'll read those all one last time.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02- Now, then, Richard, a warm welcome back.- Hello.- Remind us what you do.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04I'm an IT engineer for a resale company.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08- And you are engaged to Jenny.- I am indeed.- Planning a big wedding?- Yes.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Where are you going to get married?
0:04:10 > 0:04:13It's in Bury, just outside Manchester.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- Very good indeed.- It's where Jenny's homeland is.- Lovely.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Have you made any special plans for the wedding?
0:04:18 > 0:04:20You've got a little bit of time to plan it.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24Yeah. We've been doing some stuff, haven't we?
0:04:24 > 0:04:27We've got the location and the dress.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29That's the most important thing.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31By "special plans", you know what I meant, Jenny, I meant your dress.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Yes.- OK...- I would arrive in a helicopter, that's what I would do.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36- Please do. - Not only arrive in a helicopter,
0:04:36 > 0:04:38actually go into the church.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41- Go down the aisle in a helicopter. - Wow. Whoa!
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Coming through the west door, they'd have to open it
0:04:43 > 0:04:45and you'd have to come in at a bit of an angle.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49- Like that.- Rotors, all the hats and orders of service flying around.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53- Everywhere.- A lot of people... Jenny's veil when she gets out...
0:04:53 > 0:04:56- Yes.- It's going to be... Yeah, it's going to be a health hazard.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57Cool, though.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59- Imagine the photos.- I'd love it.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01A vicar's wig flying off.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03JENNY CHUCKLES
0:05:03 > 0:05:05- His cassock ballooning up. - Like Marilyn Monroe.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08- Yeah! - LAUGHTER
0:05:08 > 0:05:11OK. So, Richard, what are you going to go for?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Uh, going to go with
0:05:14 > 0:05:16No Sleep Till Brooklyn, Beastie Boys.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Beastie Boys, says Richard. Sounds good to me.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Let's see if it's right and how many of our 100 people said it.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Beastie Boys is of course right.
0:05:28 > 0:05:2936.
0:05:31 > 0:05:3336 for the Beastie Boys.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Number 14 hit for the wonderful Beastie Boys.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39It's their second UK top 40 hit.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Excellent, Richard. Now, Jo, welcome to Pointless.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Great to have you here. What do you do, Jo?
0:05:45 > 0:05:49At the moment I've just got back from working in a ski resort.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52- Oh, now that's fun.- Yeah. - How many months were you out there?
0:05:52 > 0:05:56- Five months.- Are you missing it? - ..December. No.
0:05:56 > 0:05:57- Oh, really?! - I was ready to come home.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59- A lot of hard work?- Definitely.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01- Were you in a chalet?- Yes.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Were you doing cooking and all that sort of stuff?
0:06:03 > 0:06:07No, my boyfriend's a chef, so he takes care of the whole food side.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09- You doing a lot of... - That's not my forte.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Good Lord. And you and your boyfriend still speaking
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- after five months of chalet running? - Definitely.
0:06:16 > 0:06:17That's very good indeed.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19So what are you going to do with the rest of this year?
0:06:19 > 0:06:22I want to get a job in the civil service.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26- OK. Well, listen, we have a lot of civil servants on the show.- I know.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28- Maybe you've already got a job, I don't know.- Not yet.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32- If someone hasn't yet approached you, they will.- Here I am.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34OK. Now, Jo, what are you going to go for on this board?
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Um...
0:06:36 > 0:06:38I think there are two that I know.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41But I don't know which one is going to score the least,
0:06:41 > 0:06:45so I'm going to say Sweet Dreams - Are Made Of This, the Eurythmics.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48The Eurythmics, says Jo. Eurythmics. Let's see if that's right
0:06:48 > 0:06:51and how many people said it for Sweet Dreams - Are Made Of This.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56It's right.
0:06:58 > 0:06:5955.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04It's right. It's a whole lot better than 100, Jo.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08Yeah, it was their first ever UK top 40 single, Sweet Dreams.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11- Got to number two. - And remains an excellent song.
0:07:11 > 0:07:12- No...- You're not sure?
0:07:12 > 0:07:16- Yeah.- Normally my musical taste and yours are generally quite close.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20- We rowed about Prince once. - Yeah, you didn't like Prince.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Now we're having this big row about Sweet Dreams.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- We're having a ding-dong.- Ouch. - Oh, ow! Bruising.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27This is bad, isn't it? I feel like I've shared a chalet with you
0:07:27 > 0:07:30for five months. LAUGHTER
0:07:30 > 0:07:31Not for the first time.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35Yeah, not for the first time. Fair enough. Now, Elliott, welcome.
0:07:35 > 0:07:36Great to have you here from Southend.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- Just say where you're from again. - Southend.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Oh, how disappointing. I thought he was going to go, "Southend!"
0:07:41 > 0:07:43You poshed it up a little bit there, Elliott.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46I tried a little bit harder now you put the pressure on me.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50- Elliott, what do you do? - I'm an insurance broker in the City.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52And in your spare time, Elliott, what are your interests?
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Sport, mainly.- Sport.- Tennis. - Tennis.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57I like football and cricket as well.
0:07:57 > 0:07:58I play a lot of tennis.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02- Do you take your tennis very seriously?- Yes.
0:08:02 > 0:08:06I'm quite competitive, so if I lose it kind of ruins my day.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Right. I see. Do you just play with friends
0:08:08 > 0:08:09or do you play in proper tournaments?
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- No, tournaments still.- Oh, still?
0:08:12 > 0:08:13- Yes.- Did...you used to play?
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Used to play at a high standard, yes, and then sort of
0:08:16 > 0:08:19found other things and gave it up, but I'm back into it now.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20Oh, really? So you might have been
0:08:20 > 0:08:23one of the great hopes of British tennis?
0:08:23 > 0:08:25There was potential there, but no, unfortunately.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Who... Were you playing alongside Andy Murray and things like that?
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Andy Murray was at a couple of tournaments when I was younger, yes.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Did you ever play him?
0:08:33 > 0:08:37We had a kind of trial match and it didn't end well.
0:08:37 > 0:08:38For him.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42- Yeah, am I right?- No, I got duffed up. I got duffed up.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43But it was a good experience.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Hang on a minute... Oh, do you mean you were beaten? He beat you?
0:08:46 > 0:08:48- Oh, yes.- OK, sorry. Phwoar, I was just thinking,
0:08:48 > 0:08:51"You can take the boy out of Southend," but, really...
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Now, Elliott, what are you going to go for on this board?
0:08:54 > 0:08:55It's not good, unfortunately.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58I know it's going to be high but I'm going to go for the bottom one,
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Never Had A Dream Come True, S Club 7.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03S Club 7, says Elliott.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Can't think what else it could be.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08But let's see how many of our 100 said S Club 7.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15Well, it is S Club 7. Look at that.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18Well, that tells you a lot about our 100 people. 54.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22It's not the highest score.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23Well done, Elliott. Yeah, S Club 7.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25It does make you philosophically wonder
0:09:25 > 0:09:28whether "Seven" begins with S or whether it begins with 7.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Well, that right. Interesting.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34But their name is the number 7, so that's what we went with.
0:09:34 > 0:09:35Perfectly right.
0:09:35 > 0:09:36- Now, Gayle, welcome back.- Hi.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39We had to say goodbye to you at the end of Round Two last time.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42We'll see no repeat of that, surely, this time.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45- No, Round One this time. - CHUCKLING:- Oh, really?
0:09:45 > 0:09:47- Is it really that bad, the board? - I'm going to have to guess.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49- Are you?- Yeah.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51OK, well, before you do that, Gayle, remind us what you do.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55- I run an arts centre in Oswaldtwistle.- Oswaldtwistle.
0:09:55 > 0:09:56- Yeah.- Very good.
0:09:56 > 0:09:57And in your spare time...
0:09:57 > 0:10:01I mean, such scraps of spare time as you get,
0:10:01 > 0:10:02what do you like getting up to?
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Well, I've got two children, teenagers,
0:10:05 > 0:10:09- so I spend a lot of time with them as well.- Right, OK. Very good.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12- Now, talk us...or at least do some thinking out loud...- Guessing.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16- ..as we go through the board. Anything you want to...?- OK.
0:10:16 > 0:10:21Well, BJ, I guess could be Billy Joel.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23AK, Alicia Keys.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28And BD, I've got in the back of my mind something like Bobby Darin.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- Alicia Keys.- Alicia Keys, you're going to say.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart. OK.
0:10:36 > 0:10:37Well, let's see if that's right, Alicia Keys,
0:10:37 > 0:10:39and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:10:42 > 0:10:43It's right.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45That is a very, very good guess, Gayle.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Look at that, 7!
0:10:50 > 0:10:53Now, that was gutsy and that really, really paid off.
0:10:53 > 0:10:557 it scored you.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59I was just waiting for Alison Krauss to come up there.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01- But no, it wasn't.- No, great answer, Gayle. Very well played.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart. I tell you what,
0:11:03 > 0:11:06she should try sleeping with a broken hot water bottle,
0:11:06 > 0:11:07- that's even worse.- Yeah. - LAUGHTER
0:11:07 > 0:11:09But probably less of a hit.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12You were right about Bobby Darin as well. Dream Lover.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15Scores more points, though, scores 21 points.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, not Billy Joel.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19It's Bon Jovi.
0:11:19 > 0:11:2128.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24- And the best answer on the board - Sleeping In My Car...- Is Roxette.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Roxette, yes. 6 points.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29There we are. Thank you very much. We're halfway through the round.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Let's take a look at those scores. 7, Gayle, well done.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35That was just reward there for taking a leap into the unknown.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37That puts you and Sarah at the top of the table.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40Then up to 36, quite a hike, where we find Richard and Jenny.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Then 54, well done, Elliott and Tim.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45And 55, you're not way ahead but, Jo and Andrea,
0:11:45 > 0:11:46you are our high scorers.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49So, Andrea, you know what we need from you in the next pass.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Best of luck. We'll come back down the line now.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Second players, please step up to the podium.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57OK. We're going to put seven more songs up on the board,
0:11:57 > 0:12:01and here they come. We have got...
0:12:19 > 0:12:20I'll read those one last time.
0:12:31 > 0:12:32Sarah.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Well, that's taken a bit of pressure off, hasn't it?
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Thank God I'm first.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40Well, yes, exactly. You have a box-fresh board there.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Sarah, remind us what you do.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44I'm retired.
0:12:44 > 0:12:45Remind us what you did, Sarah.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48I was a school teacher at a sixth form college.
0:12:48 > 0:12:52- Right you are. And what did you teach?- Film, media, theatre.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54And English.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57And English. OK. And what do you do now?
0:12:57 > 0:13:02I travel, I'm learning Italian, I do a bit of charity work, um...
0:13:02 > 0:13:04How's your Italian going?
0:13:04 > 0:13:07- Molto bene.- Ah, that's a shame(!)
0:13:07 > 0:13:09Oh, that's a shame, yeah.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12You haven't yet been to Italy to put it all into practice?
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Oh, no, I've been to Italy lots, but I've only learnt recently.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17- Not since you started learning? - No. Good reason to go.
0:13:17 > 0:13:18Yeah, very good. Great excuse.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20OK, listen, there you are, you're on 7.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23If you can score 47 or less,
0:13:23 > 0:13:25you are definitely in Round Two.
0:13:26 > 0:13:27OK.
0:13:27 > 0:13:32Well, being a child of the '60s, I'm going for Daydream Believer,
0:13:32 > 0:13:33The Monkees.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35The Monkees, says Sarah. Here comes your red line.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37If you can get below that with Daydream Believer,
0:13:37 > 0:13:38you are into Round Two.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Let's see how many people said The Monkees.
0:13:43 > 0:13:44It's right.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47- 72!- Ooh.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Ooh, that's a big score there for Daydream Believer.
0:13:51 > 0:13:5379 is your total.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56I wonder if that's enough to keep you in the game. I think it will be.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Yeah, they only had one number one, The Monkees. It was I'm A Believer.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02I tell you what, The Monkees - Greatest Hits
0:14:02 > 0:14:03- is a great album as well. - I bet it is, yeah.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05It's full of songs written by amazing people.
0:14:05 > 0:14:09Neil Sedaka and Carole King and all sorts of people wrote for them.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Wonderful. Thanks, Richard. Now, Tim, welcome to the show.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Good to have you here. What do you do, Tim?
0:14:14 > 0:14:16I'm a production and shift manager in a dairy.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19- Very good. Whereabouts is that? - In Chadwell Heath.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22What is your shift? Or does it vary all the time?
0:14:22 > 0:14:26It's four days on, four days off and it's six till six,
0:14:26 > 0:14:27so it's quite a long shift.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29That is long, isn't it? Wow.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31And what are your interests outside of the dairy?
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Just mainly the same as Elliott. Sport, really.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Football, cricket, golf, things like that.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39- I notice you've left tennis out. - Yes. No good at tennis.
0:14:39 > 0:14:40- Oh, really?- No.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42Yeah, he's used to give me a bit of a beating,
0:14:42 > 0:14:43so I stayed well away from the tennis court.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45Very good. OK, listen, you're on 54.
0:14:45 > 0:14:50If you can score 24 or less, you can take your place in Round Two.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Now, the last round would have been a lot better for me.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56I'm struggling on this one, to be honest. I'm looking for...
0:14:56 > 0:14:59There's only one I think I know, which is Sleeping With The Light On.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01I think that might be Beyonce.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03Beyonce, says Tim, for Sleeping With The Light On.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.
0:15:05 > 0:15:06There is your red line.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Bad luck, Tim.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13That's great news for Sarah and Gayle
0:15:13 > 0:15:15but terrible news for Tim and Elliott.
0:15:15 > 0:15:16I'm afraid that it's not Beyonce.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Scores you 100 points, takes your total to 154.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22Sorry, Tim. You absolutely nailed the initial, though.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24That was terrific. LAUGHTER
0:15:26 > 0:15:30Thanks very much indeed. Now, Andrea. Andrea, welcome to the show.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32What do you do, Andrea?
0:15:32 > 0:15:35At the moment I'm a waitress in a hotel, local hotel,
0:15:35 > 0:15:37but I am training to be an accountant.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41That's fun. So when do you make the switch, do you think?
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Um, I've only just started doing the accountancy,
0:15:44 > 0:15:46so I've got quite a way to go yet.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48Yeah, OK. So how long do you think it's going to take?
0:15:48 > 0:15:50- Probably a couple of years. - Right.- Yes.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52OK. Do you think you would stay with the hotel?
0:15:52 > 0:15:55- Maybe move to their accounts department?- You never know.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57- They might...let me. - By then, you'll have learnt
0:15:57 > 0:15:58your whole way around the hotel.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Couple of years after, you can take over.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Yeah, yeah, that's the plan.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06- World domination.- That's it, yeah. OK, well, listen, you're on 55.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08You're in a very comfortable position.
0:16:08 > 0:16:1098 or less sees you through.
0:16:10 > 0:16:11All we need is a correct answer.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14Well, the only one...
0:16:14 > 0:16:15I know Talking In Your Sleep.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19I can sing the song and I cannot think who CG is.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23So the only one I actually know is the bottom one and that's Abba.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26OK, Abba, I Have A Dream. Let's see if that's right.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28There's your red line, lovely and high.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Get below that with Abba - I think you might -
0:16:30 > 0:16:32and you are in Round Two.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37It's absolutely right, of course.
0:16:37 > 0:16:38Wow. Still going down.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Look at that, 45 for Abba.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Takes your total up to a lovely, round 100.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45APPLAUSE
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Yes, they had a number two hit with that
0:16:47 > 0:16:49and Westlife had a number one hit with it.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51They are the second most successful band in the history
0:16:51 > 0:16:54of the world, Abba, in terms of record sales.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56- Behind The Beatles, of course. - Indeed.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Jenny.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03Jenny, welcome. I've got fabulous news for you.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06You are going to be in Round Two.
0:17:06 > 0:17:07- Yes.- There you are.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10- Consider it a wedding present. - Thank you so much.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14So there we are. So, Jenny, tell us about yourself again.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18I'm an IT test analyst for a retail company. I work with Richard.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20- Indeed, that's where you met the man.- I did.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22All those years ago.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26And in my spare time I like to do normal stuff, really,
0:17:26 > 0:17:30cinema, watch a bit of sport. I like football in particular,
0:17:30 > 0:17:33but I've got into American sports recently because of Richard
0:17:33 > 0:17:35and his infinite knowledge of all things sporty.
0:17:35 > 0:17:36I shouldn't say that, should I?
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Well, you've said it, you can't un-say it now.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42- We now know. And, of course, wedding planning.- Wedding planning.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Is there anything that you haven't dared bring up in conversation
0:17:45 > 0:17:48with Richard that now might be a good moment to bring up?
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Anything you'd particularly like to see at the wedding?
0:17:50 > 0:17:52No, actually, there's nothing.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55He's getting to go on his big lads' blow-out to Las Vegas,
0:17:55 > 0:17:57so I think he can't really moan at anything I want at the wedding.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00Fair enough. And you've got the helicopter sorted?
0:18:00 > 0:18:01Yes, I'm very excited about the helicopter.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Good idea. Also, I can think of one other thing.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Just cos I wasn't sure if you'd like the helicopter idea
0:18:06 > 0:18:08cos some people...don't like that sort of thing.
0:18:08 > 0:18:09I can see you do.
0:18:09 > 0:18:10Is it anywhere near a river?
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Actually, not too far from a river.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14Tigers in speedboats.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16- LAUGHTER - I'm torn now.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19- I don't know which one to go for. - Do both, do both.- Why not?
0:18:19 > 0:18:21Richard's only saying that cos that's what I did at our wedding.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- But, yes, it was good. - I remember our wedding.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26LAUGHTER
0:18:26 > 0:18:30- Lovely day.- So, Jenny, what are you going to go for?
0:18:30 > 0:18:31This is all yours, this board.
0:18:31 > 0:18:35So, listen, feel free just to talk us through it.
0:18:35 > 0:18:36Fill in all those little blanks.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40I think I knew a few. I think One More Sleep is Leona Lewis.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Sleeping With The Light On is...
0:18:42 > 0:18:44Ashamedly that I know this. ..Busted.
0:18:44 > 0:18:45But I'm going to go for
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Talking In Your Sleep, Crystal Gayle.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Crystal Gayle, Talking In Your Sleep, says Jenny.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Let's see if that's right,
0:18:52 > 0:18:53let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56No red line for you because you're already through.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00It is right.
0:19:04 > 0:19:0919 for Crystal Gayle. Takes your total up to 55.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14That's great work, Jenny. It's a lovely song, Talking In Your Sleep.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Crystal Gayle, does the name ring a bell now?
0:19:16 > 0:19:17It's weird when you know the song.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19I knew the Gayle, I just couldn't think what the C was.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23Um, absolutely. No shame in knowing Busted. We love Busted on this show.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26- Big fans of Busted here. - 5 points for Busted.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28It's actually the best answer on the board.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31You were right about One More Sleep, that's Leona Lewis.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33She would have scored you 13.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37Up the top there it is The Pretenders.
0:19:37 > 0:19:38Would have scored you 16.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41And Daydreamer, people of a certain age will know,
0:19:41 > 0:19:44David Cassidy, 24 points.
0:19:44 > 0:19:45Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48So at the end of our first round, the pair heading home
0:19:48 > 0:19:52with our high score of 154, I'm afraid, Tim and Elliot, it is you.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- Oh, dear, they were two tough boards.- Yeah.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58But, yes, might you have got Busted instead of Beyonce, do you think?
0:19:58 > 0:20:00- No, we're not Busted fans.- OK.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02So you're saying you are an S Club 7 fan?
0:20:02 > 0:20:03Sorry, just to get that straight.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06LAUGHTER
0:20:06 > 0:20:08OK, Tim and Elliott, we have to say goodbye.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11We'll see you again next time. We look forward to that very much.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13But, Tim and Elliott, meantime, thanks very much for playing.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15APPLAUSE
0:20:15 > 0:20:18But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:20:23 > 0:20:24And so three pairs remain.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27At the end of this round, we'll have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Well, I've got more plaudits to hand out and here they come.
0:20:30 > 0:20:34Very well done to Jenny and Richard, our lowest scoring pair.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37Well done to Gayle, fabulous low score, Alicia Keys.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39You see, that happens on that last podium.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Sometimes you're forced into coming up with a good idea
0:20:42 > 0:20:44that you perhaps wouldn't have gone for.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46You'd have gone for a sort of Abba answer otherwise, wouldn't you?
0:20:46 > 0:20:48- I don't know.- A high scorer.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Anyway, Jo and Andrea, well done, simply. Great to have you here.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54- It's great to...- Our category for Round Two today is...
0:20:56 > 0:20:58ALL CHUCKLE
0:20:58 > 0:21:00- It's Football.- Oh, God.- Football.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first and second?
0:21:04 > 0:21:06And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:21:20 > 0:21:22So we're looking for any football club in the top 30
0:21:22 > 0:21:24of Deloitte's Money League.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27Yeah, in early 2014 Deloitte's published its list
0:21:27 > 0:21:29of the 30 richest football clubs in the world
0:21:29 > 0:21:31based on revenues from the previous season.
0:21:31 > 0:21:35Can you name any of those 30 clubs, please, from all around the world?
0:21:35 > 0:21:38Thank you very much indeed.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39Now, then, Jenny.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43I can think of a couple.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47I think I'll go with Real Madrid.
0:21:47 > 0:21:48Real Madrid, says Jenny.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said it.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56It's right, good answer.
0:21:58 > 0:22:0042.
0:22:02 > 0:22:0442 for Real Madrid.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07It was their ninth consecutive season on top of that money list as well.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10The richest club in the world for nine seasons in a row.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, Jo.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18Football is not the greatest topic for me.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22I've got a few answers that are quite world-famous clubs
0:22:22 > 0:22:24that I might be able to go for.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27I'm going to say PSG.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31- PSG...- Yeah, Paris Saint-Germain. - Paris Saint-Germain.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33OK, let's see Paris Saint-Germain. Let's see if that's right.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Let's see how many of our 100 said it.
0:22:38 > 0:22:39It's right.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43Well, 42 is our only score so far and you passed it, look at that.
0:22:44 > 0:22:48Paris Saint-Germain, down to 12. Very well done indeed, Jo.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54Well played, Jo. Fifth on the list with £341 million.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56That's the interesting thing about these football lists,
0:22:56 > 0:22:59we think of football as a huge industry, a huge worldwide industry,
0:22:59 > 0:23:02but these revenues are sort of nothing compared to most industries.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04They're actually very small companies. These...
0:23:04 > 0:23:06That's revenues, not even profits.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Profits are almost non-existent at most of them.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11If you want to make money, virtually anything apart from football
0:23:11 > 0:23:13- would do it for you. - Unless you are a footballer.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15- Yes, then you can make a lot of money.- Yeah.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17They did say the way to make a small fortune out of football
0:23:17 > 0:23:18is to start with a big one.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20ALL CHUCKLE
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Thank you very much indeed. Now, Gayle.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25- Gayle.- Yes.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27What are you going to go for?
0:23:29 > 0:23:32- Barcelona.- Barcelona, says Gayle.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 said Barcelona.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42It is right. 42 our high score, 12 our low.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43Past the high...
0:23:43 > 0:23:45There you are at 38. Not bad at all, Gayle.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52And they were second on the list for the fifth successive season as well.
0:23:52 > 0:23:53So it goes Real, then Barcelona.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57And in 2013, over 32 million people followed them
0:23:57 > 0:23:58on social media platforms.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03- Cor.- Yeah, cor.- Cor, I thought I'd shake it up a bit.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04I say "wow" a lot.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Thank you very much. We're halfway through the round.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Let's look at the scores as they stand. Jo, well done.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Great answer there, PSG. Scores you 12 and puts you and your mum
0:24:12 > 0:24:14at the top of the table.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17Then up to 38 where we find Gayle and Sarah,
0:24:17 > 0:24:19then up a little squeak beyond that and we find Jenny and Richard.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22So, Richard, you know what you have to do.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24I think you've got a good answer there.
0:24:24 > 0:24:25Let's have a nice, low score. Best of luck.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27We'll come back down the line now.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:24:32 > 0:24:35So, Sarah, remember, we're looking for any team
0:24:35 > 0:24:38that features in the top 30 of Deloitte's Football Money League.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40I think you are going to be really good,
0:24:40 > 0:24:45- so I'm going to go AC Milan. - AC Milan, says Sarah.
0:24:45 > 0:24:46AC Milan.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48Here is your red line, so quite low.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50If you get below that, you are definitely in the head-to-head.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Let's see how many people said AC Milan.
0:24:55 > 0:24:56It's right.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Whoa, it's going to be close. Look at that, 14.
0:25:03 > 0:25:0552 is your total.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Well played, Sarah. That's gutsy play, isn't it?
0:25:10 > 0:25:11That's exactly the thing to do as well.
0:25:11 > 0:25:15They call them the Rossoneri cos they play in red and black.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, Andrea.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Andrea, if you can score 39 or less, you are through to the head-to-head.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24- I doubt it.- Jo has set you up beautifully there.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27I know, but football is the worst.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30I know nothing about football.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34I'm trying really hard to think of a team. Erm...
0:25:34 > 0:25:37I'm not even sure if this is a team but I'm going to say it anyway
0:25:37 > 0:25:41and fingers crossed, Bayern Munich.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44- Bayern Munich.- Is it a team? - Bayern Munich, says Andrea.
0:25:44 > 0:25:45There's your red line.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47Let's see if you can get below that with Bayern Munich.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49If you can, you are in the next round.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51How many people said Bayern Munich?
0:25:53 > 0:25:55- It's right.- (Yes!)
0:25:55 > 0:25:57- (Yes!)- Well done, Andrea.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00And you are in the head-to-head. That's great play there.
0:26:00 > 0:26:0117 for Bayern Munich.
0:26:01 > 0:26:02Very well deserved.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04Low score of 29 in total.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Well played, Andrea. Very nice answer, Bayern Munich.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11They were the third highest earners that season.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13So it goes Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Won the Champions League, of course. Won the treble as well.
0:26:15 > 0:26:19Excellent. Thanks, Richard. Now, Richard.
0:26:19 > 0:26:20There you are on 42.
0:26:20 > 0:26:21We need a score of 9 or less.
0:26:21 > 0:26:239 or less, Richard.
0:26:23 > 0:26:24Can you do it?
0:26:25 > 0:26:29Well, got a few in my head. Going to go with...
0:26:32 > 0:26:33..Benfica.
0:26:33 > 0:26:34Benfica, says Richard.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Benfica. Here's your red line.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38It's low.
0:26:38 > 0:26:39Get below that with Benfica, though,
0:26:39 > 0:26:41and you are in the head-to-head for the second time.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44Let's see if Benfica is right and how many people said it.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48It's right.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56You're in the head-to-head. Very well done indeed. 2 for Benfica.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57Very well done.
0:26:57 > 0:26:5844 is your total.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Yes, they were 26th on that list, the only Portuguese club there.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07So you're talking of it being a small industry.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10They've got revenues of less than £100 million
0:27:10 > 0:27:14and yet they're one of the biggest revenue clubs in the entire world.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17In any other industry that's nothing at all.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Let's take a look at the pointless answers. There's a few.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22We'll start with the Brazilian team Corinthians.
0:27:22 > 0:27:23Then the Italians, Lazio.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25Marseille, from France, were on the list.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Also, could have had...
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Newcastle United were on the list and a pointless answer.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33Schalke were there. Stuttgart. Both of those from Germany.
0:27:33 > 0:27:34Those are the only pointless answers.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37There's 1 point for Ajax, Hamburg, Valencia,
0:27:37 > 0:27:38and West Ham were on the list.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40Amazing. INDISTINCT COMMENT
0:27:40 > 0:27:42I know. ALL CHUCKLE
0:27:42 > 0:27:442 points for Fenerbahce and Napoli.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46Benfica obviously is a terrific answer.
0:27:46 > 0:27:483 points for Galatasaray and Atletico Madrid.
0:27:48 > 0:27:515 for Inter Milan, 6 for Roma, 6 for Spurs.
0:27:51 > 0:27:527 for Borussia Dortmund
0:27:52 > 0:27:55who were beaten by Munich in the Champions League Final.
0:27:55 > 0:27:5612 for Juventus.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Then we've got the...all the English teams.
0:27:58 > 0:28:03Liverpool - 24, Arsenal - 29, Man City - 29 and Chelsea - 33.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06And the only other team we haven't had, Manchester United - 56.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10At the end of our second round, the pair who are heading home,
0:28:10 > 0:28:13I'm afraid this time you really are going home...
0:28:13 > 0:28:14Your score of 52,
0:28:14 > 0:28:16not a terrible score by any means,
0:28:16 > 0:28:19but it just happens to be the highest, it's Sarah and Gayle.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21I'm afraid this is where we say goodbye, Sarah and Gayle.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23It's been great having you. Thank you for playing.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25- BOTH:- Thank you.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for the head-to-head.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37Congratulations, Jenny and Richard, Jo and Andrea.
0:28:37 > 0:28:38You are now one step closer to the final
0:28:38 > 0:28:43and a chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands at £1,000.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46Jenny and Richard, it's like Groundhog Day.
0:28:46 > 0:28:47You're back here again,
0:28:47 > 0:28:49our lowest-scoring pair in the head-to-head round.
0:28:49 > 0:28:50Jo and Andrea, very well done.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53Your first appearance on Pointless and through to the head-to-head.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56Always a relief to get to this point, isn't it?
0:28:56 > 0:28:58- You can chat.- Yeah.- Hooray! Makes a massive difference.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01Listen, best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:29:06 > 0:29:10OK. Here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:29:13 > 0:29:15Statues Of Prime Ministers. Richard.
0:29:15 > 0:29:18Going to show you five statues or sculptures of UK prime ministers now.
0:29:18 > 0:29:20Can you name them, please?
0:29:20 > 0:29:24OK, let's reveal our five statues. And here they come. We have got...
0:29:47 > 0:29:48There we are.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51Five statues of prime ministers.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54Now, then, Jenny and Richard, you've been our low scorers,
0:29:54 > 0:29:55so you will go first.
0:29:55 > 0:29:56Feel free to confer.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Well, we've got a little bit of an idea of some of them,
0:29:59 > 0:30:01but without...
0:30:02 > 0:30:04Just want to get an answer on the board this time.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06We'll go for B, Margaret Thatcher.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10OK, nice obscure one there. B, Margaret Thatcher.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12LAUGHTER
0:30:12 > 0:30:15Jo and Andrea...
0:30:15 > 0:30:18I think we'll go for A and we think that might be Harold Wilson.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21You're going to say A, Harold Wilson.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24OK, so we have Margaret Thatcher and Harold Wilson.
0:30:24 > 0:30:26Jenny and Richard said Margaret Thatcher for B.
0:30:26 > 0:30:29Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:30:32 > 0:30:33It's ri... Ooh!
0:30:33 > 0:30:35Look at that.
0:30:35 > 0:30:38There you are, 94. 94 for Margaret Thatcher.
0:30:38 > 0:30:39Jo and Andrea,
0:30:39 > 0:30:42that's what you have to beat with Harold Wilson for A.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Yes, very well done. That's what you needed.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52Down it goes to...35.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54APPLAUSE
0:30:55 > 0:30:58Well done, Jo and Andrea. You've nicked it.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00After one question you are up 1-nil. Richard.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02Let's fill in the rest of this board.
0:31:02 > 0:31:05C, it's in Parliament Square and it is David Lloyd George.
0:31:07 > 0:31:0910 points for that.
0:31:09 > 0:31:13D you'll find in Liverpool. It's Benjamin Disraeli.
0:31:13 > 0:31:14Would have scored 15.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16And E is an ice sculpture of...
0:31:16 > 0:31:18I'm guessing it's Tony Blair.
0:31:18 > 0:31:19- Tony Blair, yes.- Really?
0:31:19 > 0:31:22- Tony Blair never...- Would have scored 41.- ..half-moon glasses.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25It's peculiar, isn't it? It was made by climate change activists,
0:31:25 > 0:31:26so presumably no longer exists.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29There we are. Thanks very much indeed.
0:31:29 > 0:31:30Here comes your second question.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33Jenny and Richard, you have to win this to stay in the game.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35Best of luck. It concerns...
0:31:39 > 0:31:40One Foot In The Grave. Richard.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43We're going to show you five clues now about the British sitcom
0:31:43 > 0:31:45One Foot In The Grave. What's the most obscure answer?
0:31:45 > 0:31:49Thanks very much. Let's reveal our five clues. And here they come.
0:31:49 > 0:31:50We've got...
0:32:05 > 0:32:07I'll read those all again.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26Jo and Andrea, you will go first.
0:32:26 > 0:32:31Erm, we're not really sure, other than the catchphrase,
0:32:31 > 0:32:34which Joanna knew, which is probably too high.
0:32:34 > 0:32:39So I'm going to go with the Monty Python star who has done
0:32:39 > 0:32:43other songs and wrote music and I think it might be Eric Idle.
0:32:43 > 0:32:45Eric Idle, say Jo and Andrea. Eric Idle.
0:32:45 > 0:32:50OK, so, Jenny and Richard, the board is all yours. Talk us through it.
0:32:50 > 0:32:53Know the catchphrase
0:32:53 > 0:32:55and we think we know the bottom one.
0:32:55 > 0:32:57- Do you want to go for the bottom one?- Well...
0:32:57 > 0:33:01Going from the bottom one from the language, I'm guessing it's Germany.
0:33:01 > 0:33:02OK, you're going to say Germany.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05OK, so we have Eric Idle and we have Germany.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08Jo and Andrea are saying Eric Idle, the Monty Python star.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people
0:33:10 > 0:33:12said Eric Idle.
0:33:14 > 0:33:15It's right.
0:33:18 > 0:33:2042.
0:33:21 > 0:33:22- At least we got it right.- Yeah.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25- I think the catchphrase would have been more, wouldn't it?- Yeah.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27Jenny and Richard have said Germany, the country
0:33:27 > 0:33:31where Mit Einem Bein Im Grab was their version.
0:33:31 > 0:33:34Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said Germany.
0:33:37 > 0:33:38It's right.
0:33:39 > 0:33:4272!
0:33:42 > 0:33:43Well...
0:33:44 > 0:33:46Jo and Andrea, very, very well done to you.
0:33:46 > 0:33:48That means, after only two questions,
0:33:48 > 0:33:50you are straight through to the final, 2-nil.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52Yeah, high-scoring head-to-head there.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54The first name of the character played by Annette Crosbie
0:33:54 > 0:33:57would have won you the point. She was called Margaret.
0:33:58 > 0:33:59Would have scored you 26.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01The next one definitely wouldn't have done.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03Big scorers you'd imagine for "I don't believe it!"
0:34:03 > 0:34:05Would have scored you 81 points.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08And the first name of Patrick's wife is Pippa.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13And she would have scored you 8 points, best answer on the board.
0:34:13 > 0:34:14Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17The pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:34:17 > 0:34:19second time you've been our lowest-scoring pair
0:34:19 > 0:34:21in the head-to-head, second time you've exited
0:34:21 > 0:34:24the head-to-head round with nothing on the scoreboard.
0:34:24 > 0:34:25I'm so sorry, Jenny and Richard.
0:34:25 > 0:34:28It's been great having you on the show but we have to say goodbye.
0:34:28 > 0:34:30- Thanks so much for playing. - BOTH:- Thank you.
0:34:30 > 0:34:32- APPLAUSE - Good luck, guys.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35But for Jo and Andrea, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:39 > 0:34:43Congratulations, Andrea and Jo, you fought off all the competition
0:34:43 > 0:34:45and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:45 > 0:34:46- BOTH:- Yay.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57If you do, you will go into Pointless history for,
0:34:57 > 0:34:59who knows, maybe as much as 24 hours.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02For the seventh consecutive winners for the first time ever,
0:35:02 > 0:35:04very exciting indeed.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06It'd certainly be a shocker if you didn't win these days.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08I mean, that would be quite something, wouldn't it?
0:35:08 > 0:35:11It would be a disappointment for the whole nation.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13- No pressure then(!) - Goodness, can you imagine?
0:35:13 > 0:35:16No pressure, but certainly everyone is expecting it.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19Well, that jackpot, just in case you have forgotten,
0:35:19 > 0:35:22is standing currently at £1,000.
0:35:22 > 0:35:23So there we are.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25We've thrown a lot at you.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28Anything you'd particularly like to see come up in this last round?
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Obviously we've done statues of prime ministers, so don't say that.
0:35:32 > 0:35:35Mum really likes rugby. Mum is really good at the rugby players.
0:35:35 > 0:35:36OK. Jo, what would you like?
0:35:36 > 0:35:39We're both quite good at literature, so that might be quite good.
0:35:39 > 0:35:41Geography. Love a bit of geography.
0:35:41 > 0:35:44- History, we're not bad at as well. - Well, best of luck.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46As always, you get to choose your category from the four
0:35:46 > 0:35:49that we put upon the board. Let's see what we've got for you today.
0:35:51 > 0:35:52Well, there we are.
0:35:52 > 0:35:54Sport In 1996, The Blues Brothers,
0:35:54 > 0:35:57Tyne And Wear, Modern Female Novelists.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59Pretty much everything you asked for.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01THEY SNIGGER
0:36:01 > 0:36:03Sport In 1996?
0:36:03 > 0:36:04Modern Female Novelists?
0:36:04 > 0:36:07- Shall we go with that?- OK, yeah. Modern Female Novelists, please.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11Modern Female Novelists. Let's find out what the questions are. Richard.
0:36:11 > 0:36:13OK, if you like literature, hopefully there is something for you.
0:36:13 > 0:36:14Three great authors here.
0:36:14 > 0:36:18We're looking for any novel published by A S Byatt,
0:36:18 > 0:36:21we're looking for any novel published by Doris Lessing,
0:36:21 > 0:36:23or we're looking for any novel published by
0:36:23 > 0:36:25the wonderful Margaret Atwood.
0:36:25 > 0:36:27And these are all up to April 2014.
0:36:27 > 0:36:31Any novel published by any of those three wonderful authors.
0:36:31 > 0:36:32Very, very best of luck.
0:36:32 > 0:36:33Thanks very much indeed.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36OK, as always, you've got up to a minute to come up with three answers
0:36:36 > 0:36:39and all we need for you to win that jackpot is for just one of those
0:36:39 > 0:36:41answers to be pointless.
0:36:41 > 0:36:42- Are you ready?- Yes.
0:36:42 > 0:36:45OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47Your time starts now.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50- OK. Do you know any? - I don't know any.
0:36:50 > 0:36:51Oh, dear.
0:36:51 > 0:36:52Margaret Atwood, do you know her?
0:36:52 > 0:36:54I know who Margaret Atwood is.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56Did she write anything you've read?
0:36:56 > 0:36:58I haven't read... No, I don't know.
0:36:58 > 0:36:59A S Byatt.
0:36:59 > 0:37:05- I don't know any of these novels. - OK, we'll have to make some up.
0:37:06 > 0:37:07Margaret Atwood...
0:37:07 > 0:37:10- Does she do things with, like, trees in the title?- She might do.
0:37:10 > 0:37:12Or like Into The Woods?
0:37:12 > 0:37:15- Things like that?- I don't know. - I don't know.- Make up some titles.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18- OK. Well... - Think of a good novel title.
0:37:20 > 0:37:21Who's A S Byatt?
0:37:22 > 0:37:26- I don't know.- Don't know.- I honestly don't know.- Doris Lessing.
0:37:28 > 0:37:29Oh, dear.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32- We're breaking the run of winners. - THEY LAUGH
0:37:32 > 0:37:34- OK.- What shall we make up?
0:37:34 > 0:37:36Margaret Atwood, she's Canadian...
0:37:36 > 0:37:38- Ten seconds left. - Something Canadian.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41- Into The Rockies.- OK, that's one.
0:37:41 > 0:37:42Next one.
0:37:44 > 0:37:45Doris Lessing...
0:37:46 > 0:37:48OK, your time is now up.
0:37:48 > 0:37:49I'm afraid I need three answers.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52- And if you could say which category you're...- OK.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55..making up an answer for, that would be fantastic.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57ALL LAUGH
0:37:57 > 0:37:59Can I just say, I have still got a very, very good feeling
0:37:59 > 0:38:01about seven in a row. I'm still...
0:38:01 > 0:38:04ANDREA AND JO LAUGH
0:38:04 > 0:38:06- Oh, dear.- OK.
0:38:06 > 0:38:12- Margaret Atwood, Over The Rockies. - Over the Rockies.- BOTH:- Yes.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14Doris Lessing...
0:38:14 > 0:38:15What did you say?
0:38:17 > 0:38:19- On The Beach.- On The Beach.
0:38:19 > 0:38:21Quite a journey we're going on, isn't it?
0:38:21 > 0:38:24- LAUGHTER - Ah, where are we going to end up?
0:38:24 > 0:38:28- A S Byatt wrote, um... - Winter Wonderland.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32- Winter Wonderland.- Yeah, she wrote that, I'm sure of it.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34Do you want to put those in any order or shall we take them
0:38:34 > 0:38:36- in the order given? - Any order you like.- Alphabetical.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39OK, we'll take them in the order they were given.
0:38:39 > 0:38:43So we had Over The Rockies, On The Beach and Winter Wonderland.
0:38:43 > 0:38:46OK, well, let's put those answers on the board. And here they are.
0:38:46 > 0:38:51We have got Over The Rockies, On The Beach and Winter Wonderland.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53Can I just say, before we do the tower,
0:38:53 > 0:38:54can I just get your bank details?
0:38:54 > 0:38:57Cos we tend to do it electronically, it's how we do...
0:38:57 > 0:39:00It's how we give you the jackpot. So I just need to put it all in there.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02We'll do it after. It would just be nice to get it out the way.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04Yeah. Well, yes, sensible.
0:39:04 > 0:39:06The moment you win, the moment the pointless answer comes,
0:39:06 > 0:39:10- we're having an open-top bus tour of...- All around Borehamwood.
0:39:10 > 0:39:14- I can't wait.- A ticker tape parade. - So excited.
0:39:14 > 0:39:16We've made ice sculptures of both of you.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Yeah? Good.
0:39:18 > 0:39:20Then the night is but young.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23We are due at Downing Street at 9am tomorrow.
0:39:24 > 0:39:29Safe to say I don't think any of us will have slept but...
0:39:29 > 0:39:30We're not going to be there.
0:39:30 > 0:39:33Very best of luck. Your first answer was Over The Rockies.
0:39:33 > 0:39:37Um, I don't know which one of these is going to win that jackpot, but...
0:39:38 > 0:39:42..when it happens, what would you do with that £1,000?
0:39:43 > 0:39:46I'd have the night out that you just described.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50- Open-top bus tour straight to Downing Street.- Yes.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53- Get an ice sculpture of myself. - Oh, that would be good, wouldn't it?
0:39:53 > 0:39:55- I know!- Superb.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57- Lots of champagne, yeah, we'd love it.- Yeah.
0:39:57 > 0:40:01- Brilliant. Well, OK. - Drinks will be on us if we win.
0:40:01 > 0:40:02That would be nice, thank you.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05So, we're looking for Margaret Atwood novels in this case,
0:40:05 > 0:40:06and you have gone for Over The Rockies.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08Let's see if it's right.
0:40:11 > 0:40:12Oh!
0:40:13 > 0:40:15Not Over The Rockies, I'm afraid.
0:40:15 > 0:40:18Your next answer, in this case, we were looking for Doris Lessing
0:40:18 > 0:40:19novels, and we have gone for On The Beach.
0:40:19 > 0:40:20Let's see if that's right,
0:40:20 > 0:40:22and if it is, let see how many people said it.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29I'm sorry.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31Last shot at a pointless answer.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33- This is the one, this is the one. - This is the one.
0:40:33 > 0:40:35Winter Wonderland by A S Byatt.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40HE SIGHS
0:40:40 > 0:40:43For £1,000, let's see how many people said Winter Wonderland.
0:40:46 > 0:40:47Yeah!
0:40:49 > 0:40:51APPLAUSE
0:40:51 > 0:40:54I am so sorry. Oh, I'm sorry.
0:40:55 > 0:40:57Oh, there's nothing worse.
0:40:57 > 0:41:00There is nothing worse than one of these final rounds
0:41:00 > 0:41:02when, you know, it's something you don't know.
0:41:02 > 0:41:05I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that pointless answer,
0:41:05 > 0:41:07but you've come up with some great ideas.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10I'm afraid, though, you didn't win our jackpot of £1,000.
0:41:10 > 0:41:11That rolls over on to the next show.
0:41:11 > 0:41:13But we've loved having you on the show
0:41:13 > 0:41:15and a great performance throughout, so lots to be proud of.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17And you get to take home our Pointless trophy,
0:41:17 > 0:41:19so very, very well done.
0:41:19 > 0:41:20Thank you.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22APPLAUSE
0:41:25 > 0:41:28Yeah, Jo and Andrea, you really have played terrifically.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30Great fun as well. Sometimes those categories come up.
0:41:30 > 0:41:32It's just...not your day. It wasn't your day today.
0:41:32 > 0:41:36It's very unfortunate, but thank you so much for genuinely giving us
0:41:36 > 0:41:38a laugh as well. You were a lot of fun doing it.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers
0:41:40 > 0:41:42that you could have made up.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45You could have made up A Whistling Woman.
0:41:45 > 0:41:48See, Angels & Insects, that could have come to you.
0:41:48 > 0:41:50The Biographer's Tale, The Shadow Of The Sun.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52You also could have had Still Life or The Game.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55Both eminently make uppable, Still Life and The Game.
0:41:55 > 0:41:58Let's take a look now at Doris Lessing.
0:41:58 > 0:42:02If The Old Could, Martha Quest, The Cleft, The Good Terrorist.
0:42:02 > 0:42:03You also could have had A Proper Marriage,
0:42:03 > 0:42:06A Ripple From The Storm, Alfred & Emily,
0:42:06 > 0:42:09Ben, In The World, Briefing For A Descent Into Hell.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11That's one you could have made up, surely.
0:42:11 > 0:42:14All sorts of answers from Doris Lessing there.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16In fact, the only ones that scored points with Doris Lessing were
0:42:16 > 0:42:19The Golden Notebook, The Grass Is Singing and The Fifth Child.
0:42:19 > 0:42:20All her other novels are pointless.
0:42:20 > 0:42:23So if you said one, very, very well played.
0:42:23 > 0:42:25And we'll finish off with the wonderful Margaret Atwood.
0:42:25 > 0:42:29Some big books here. Alias Grace, Life Before Man, The Edible Woman.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31You could have had The Robber Bride.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34You could have had Bodily Harm, Lady Oracle and Surfacing as well.
0:42:34 > 0:42:36Very well done if you got any of those. It's been a great show.
0:42:36 > 0:42:38You've really been terrific,
0:42:38 > 0:42:40and so sorry we threw that awful final category at you.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye, Andrea and Jo,
0:42:44 > 0:42:46but we've loved having you and you played so well.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49Thank you so much. Great contestants, Andrea and Jo.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51APPLAUSE
0:42:52 > 0:42:55Well, very sadly, Andrea and Jo didn't win our jackpot today,
0:42:55 > 0:42:57which means it rolls over onto the next show
0:42:57 > 0:42:59when we will be playing for £2,000.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03Join us next time to see if someone can win it.
0:43:03 > 0:43:05- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:05 > 0:43:08And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10APPLAUSE
