0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you very much. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Pointless, the show where we are always striving to find
0:00:27 > 0:00:28the most obscure answers.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:34 > 0:00:35And couple number one.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38Hello, I'm Andrea, this is my daughter Erin.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41- And we're from Cirencester. - Couple number two.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44Hi, I'm Tess, this is my friend Stevie and we're from Essex.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Couple number three.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Hi, I'm Darren, this is my friend Sam.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49we're school friends and we're from Leeds.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51And couple number four.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Hi, I'm Wendy, this is Joe, my friend and work colleague
0:00:53 > 0:00:55and we're from Swindon.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59- And these are today's contestants. - APPLAUSE
0:00:59 > 0:01:00Thanks very much, all of you.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03We'll get to know more about each of you as the show goes along
0:01:03 > 0:01:05so that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07They say he never sleeps. They are, of course, wrong.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10He's always asleep and we're his dreams.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12- AUDIENCE LAUGHS - It's my Pointless friend, Richard.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15APPLAUSE Hiya. Hi, everybody.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20- Good afternoon, how are you? - I'm very well, thank you.
0:01:20 > 0:01:21Excellent. Lovely show last time -
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Paul and Grace who beat Tess and Steven in the head-to-head last time.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27They joined the 200 club in the head-to-head,
0:01:27 > 0:01:29which I'm not sure has ever been done before.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32So it's sort of very impressive to get there and then the 200 club
0:01:32 > 0:01:34so it almost doesn't count, I don't think.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36We also had Wendy and Joe who got knocked out in the first round.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Hopefully we'll see a bit more of them this time.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Unlucky to be knocked out in the first round.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43But everyone here is a bit giddy because just before the show...
0:01:43 > 0:01:46One of our contestants is a magician and showed us a trick
0:01:46 > 0:01:47and everyone's now very excited.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50- Hmm.- It was amazing, wasn't it? - It was incredible.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52(We should get him to do a trick on the show.)
0:01:52 > 0:01:56- Him or her, yeah. - Him, I was thinking.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57AUDIENCE LAUGHS
0:01:57 > 0:02:00No, I was like doing suspense as to who it might be.
0:02:00 > 0:02:01Oh, so you don't know who...
0:02:03 > 0:02:09- Who could it be?- Who could it be? - Is it Wendy? Oooooooooooh.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- Is it Erin? Ooooooooh.- Ooooh.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- I don't know. We'll find out. - We will, yeah.- Very exciting.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Now, Paul and Grace didn't win the jackpot last time
0:02:18 > 0:02:22so we add another £1,000 to that so today's jackpot starts off at...
0:02:22 > 0:02:25APPLAUSE
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Now, the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:35 > 0:02:36will be eliminated.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Those are the only rules.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Our first category today is...
0:02:43 > 0:02:44History.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Can you all decide in your pairs who'll go first, who'll go second?
0:02:48 > 0:02:50And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55OK, and the question concerns...
0:02:59 > 0:03:01A's in history.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03- Richard.- We are going to give you seven clues on each pass
0:03:03 > 0:03:06to answers there which are events, people or places in history
0:03:06 > 0:03:07that begin with the letter A.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09You just have to give us the most obscure answer.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12It's going to be 14 in all to have a go at at home.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Thanks very much. So we're looking for these people, places or events.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19They all begin with A and here's our first board of seven.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45I'll read those all one last time.
0:04:09 > 0:04:10There we are.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Now, Andrea, you're welcome to the show, lovely to have you here.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17- What do you do, Andrea? - I am a personal injury lawyer.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Well, cos I was just going to say,
0:04:19 > 0:04:21I've got this thing in my neck at the moment,
0:04:21 > 0:04:24I'm pretty sure it's just from saying, "There's your red line."
0:04:24 > 0:04:26It could well be. That's repetitive strain.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Yeah, that's happened at work and it's really debilitating me.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31I can't do anything else at all.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- And just now I had a trip or fall. - Did you?
0:04:34 > 0:04:35I could be your girl then.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38When you're not doing that, Andrea, what are your hobbies?
0:04:38 > 0:04:40I have an allotment which...
0:04:40 > 0:04:42I grow lots of vegetables and flowers.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46I am the Siddington allotment champion 2013.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48- What won it for you? - The pumpkin, I think.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52- ALEXANDER GASPS - I had a pumpkin that was...massive.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54- Very nice. OK, now, Andrea.- Yes.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57This board behind me, they all begin with A.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59What are you going to go for?
0:04:59 > 0:05:03Um...well, I'm struggling a little bit which I'm ashamed to say
0:05:03 > 0:05:05but I think I'm going to...
0:05:05 > 0:05:09I'm going to play safe and go with Prince Albert.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Prince Albert says Andrea. Let's see if that's right,
0:05:11 > 0:05:14let's see how many of our 100 people said Prince Albert.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- Oomph. - APPLAUSE
0:05:19 > 0:05:23Wow, you played it safe there. Look at that. 90 for Prince Albert.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26Big score but very well played. Did what you needed to do.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Steven, welcome back.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Now, remind us about yourself, Steven.
0:05:32 > 0:05:38I'm a computer nerd from Essex. I like cars, video games.
0:05:38 > 0:05:39Mainly nerd things, really.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41The one thing you're leaving out though
0:05:41 > 0:05:44- is you got through to the head-to-head last time.- We did.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Yeah. You got to be hoping to go a bit further today?
0:05:46 > 0:05:49- We'd like to. - Are you happy with the board?
0:05:49 > 0:05:52- Have we served up a nice board of A's for you?- It's OK, I think.- OK.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54I'm going to try for a lower answer.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58So I think the American ship sunk during the 1941 bombing
0:05:58 > 0:06:00of Pearl Harbor was the Arizona.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03The Arizona says Steven. The Arizona.
0:06:03 > 0:06:04Let's see if that's right
0:06:04 > 0:06:06and if it is let's see how many of our 100 people said Arizona.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Well, 90 was our high score.
0:06:16 > 0:06:187.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Yeah, very good answer, yeah.
0:06:25 > 0:06:26Another ship, the Oklahoma, also capsized
0:06:26 > 0:06:28but that doesn't begin with A.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31In fact, the very next day America voted to join the war.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Thanks very much indeed.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- Now, Sam. Welcome. From Leeds?- Yes.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40- What do you do, Sam?- I work in the betting and gaming industry.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42In which bit of the betting and gaming industry?
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- Do you work out odds? - No, I work in online poker.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49OK. I see. So you design programmes or you run the programmes?
0:06:49 > 0:06:51We don't look after the poker product as such,
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- we look after the customers that play it.- OK. Very good.- Yes.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56And what are your interests aside from that?
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- A lot of sport, mainly football. - Right you are.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02- Did you study history?- I did.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04- Did you get any A's in history? - No, I didn't.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07AUDIENCE LAUGHS
0:07:07 > 0:07:10- It's not a good board, I must say. - That was a groan.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12I mean, it was deserved but it was a groan.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Yes, what are you going to go for, Sam?
0:07:14 > 0:07:17I'm going to pin my hopes on one that I've just probably
0:07:17 > 0:07:20thought of now which is the country invaded in 2001
0:07:20 > 0:07:22as part of Operation Enduring Freedom.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- And I'm going to go for Afghanistan. - Afghanistan says Sam.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said Afghanistan.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33It's right. Well, 90 is our high score, 7 our low.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37Where does Afghanistan take us? Down to 27.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40APPLAUSE
0:07:40 > 0:07:41Well chosen, low score.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Well played, Sam, yeah, a good answer.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46That's the official US government name for the war in Afghanistan -
0:07:46 > 0:07:48- Enduring Freedom. - Enduring Freedom.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53- Yeah. And now, Joe.- Yes.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Now, last time you were the second lowest scorer in Round One.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- The second lowest score. You scored only one.- I did.
0:07:58 > 0:07:59And still you had to leave.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01- Nothing wrong with Wendy's score...- No.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03..it was just everyone else scored really low.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06So I kind of feel in the balance of things,
0:08:06 > 0:08:08- Pointless kind of owes you one. - That would be nice.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11I don't know if Pointless is going to pay up.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14Pointless is notorious for welshing on its marker but there we are.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17What do you make of history?
0:08:17 > 0:08:19It wouldn't be my favourite subject
0:08:19 > 0:08:22but there's a couple I think I still know.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25I'm assuming that the country where the British established
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- their first penal colony would be Australia.- Yeah.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32The only other one I think I know...slightly risky...
0:08:32 > 0:08:35is the city which was the birthplace of Martin Luther King Jr,
0:08:35 > 0:08:37which I think was Atlanta.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40Atlanta, says Joe. Atlanta, very good.
0:08:40 > 0:08:41Let's see if it's right and if it is,
0:08:41 > 0:08:43let's see how many people said it.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Well, 90 is our high score, you whizz past that.
0:08:49 > 0:08:5227 the next one, you whizz past that. 7 our low score.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54No, down to 14.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56- Very well done indeed, Joe. - APPLAUSE
0:08:58 > 0:09:01- 14.- Well played, Joe, another very good answer.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Let's take a look at the rest of these.
0:09:03 > 0:09:07The ancient Greek king of Macedonia was Alexander the Great.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10That's 18 points. You're quite right about Australia.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14That would have scored you 70 points so you did very well to avoid it.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17And the English novelist who's going to be featured on the next £10 note.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21- Jane Austen.- Jane Austen. So Austen the answer there. 15 points.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24So best answer up there, Stevie, is Arizona. Well played.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Thanks very much indeed. OK, well, let's take a look at the scores.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28We're halfway through the round,
0:09:28 > 0:09:30the best score of that pass was yours, Steven, well done.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Steven and Tess looking very strong at this stage.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37Then up to 14 where we find Wendy and Joe. Up to 27, Sam and Darren.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39And then Andrea and Erin,
0:09:39 > 0:09:41I'm afraid, 90.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44- You must've known loads of others on that board.- I did, I just panicked.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Panicked.- It's podium one.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Podium one will do that to people, I'm afraid.
0:09:48 > 0:09:49I'm so sorry.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52Anyway, listen, who knows what might happen in the next round? Erin...
0:09:52 > 0:09:54I could just have a moment.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57You might, you might just come up with something fantastic.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Best of luck. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Could the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:04 > 0:10:09OK, let's put seven more clues up on the board and here they come.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35I'll read those all one last time.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Remember, we're looking for these people, places or events
0:10:55 > 0:10:58who all begin with the letter A.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01- Wendy. Welcome back.- Thank you.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04- Now, Wendy, remind us what you do. - IT finance manager.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07And tell us more about yourself.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11Outside of work I love playing badminton in a league.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- You play in a league?- Yes. - Competitive badminton?
0:11:14 > 0:11:17- Mixed and ladies.- Hmm, very good. There you are.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19You're on 14, the high scorers are on 90, Erin and Andrea.
0:11:19 > 0:11:2175 or less gets you through.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26I'm going to have to play safe and hope that someone slips up.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Because if I take a risk with Joe's brilliant score
0:11:28 > 0:11:31she is, generally, not going to get me home, basically,
0:11:31 > 0:11:34and she's got the car keys so I'm going to have to go
0:11:34 > 0:11:36with the country in which Adolf Hitler was born.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40- And say Austria.- Austria, says Wendy. There's your red line.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Get below that with Austria and you're in the next round.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Let's see how many people said Austria.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49It's right.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53- 80. - APPLAUSE
0:11:53 > 0:11:5580 takes your total up to 94, Wendy.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Yeah, big score but probably the sensible thing to do there.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02He spent most of his childhood in Linz in Upper Austria.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08Now then, Darren, welcome to the show.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10What do you do, Darren?
0:12:10 > 0:12:13- I'm a magician.- I knew I'd get it out of someone.- Oh, well done.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16- Did you see how I asked? I had to...- It was amazing.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Cos Xander does a lot of that psychological...
0:12:18 > 0:12:21- So you probably didn't even notice what he was doing.- No, he was good.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23- Yeah.- Yeah. Darren, he's amazing. He is absolutely fantastic.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26- Darren, tell us a little bit about your magic.- When did you start?
0:12:26 > 0:12:29I've been doing magic for 20 years.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33Began by receiving a magic set when I was five years old
0:12:33 > 0:12:35and I've performed and loved it as a hobby ever since.
0:12:35 > 0:12:40- Have you brought any magic with you? - Yes, I've brought one trick.
0:12:40 > 0:12:44- Could we have a quick trick?- Go on. - Can I throw you these really quick?
0:12:45 > 0:12:50- Whoa! There we go. Yeah.- That's a pointless deck of playing cards.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54- A pointless deck of...- Yeah, I say that because they're invisible.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58I want you to give the cards a shuffle and then fan them out
0:12:58 > 0:13:00in front of you so you can see the fronts and I can see the backs.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04- OK.- And the reason I do this is so you can choose any card
0:13:04 > 0:13:06in the pack and that I don't influence you in any way,
0:13:06 > 0:13:08you can choose one and take it out.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10- OK.- Show me.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13AUDIENCE LAUGHS
0:13:13 > 0:13:16Now, I have my deck of cards here which is exactly the same as yours
0:13:16 > 0:13:18except they're real and from a completely face up packet
0:13:18 > 0:13:21and one card face down, the card that I thought you might choose.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24So everybody gets to the end of the trick together.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Can you name the card that you chose?
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Well, as you all saw, it was a Jack of diamonds.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30- The Jack of diamonds? - The Jack of diamonds.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34There should be one card in this pack face down.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41There, that's the only card in the pack that's face down.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43- And do you want to come and take it out?- Yeah, yeah.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Queen of spades. That's unbelievable.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52- AUDIENCE LAUGHS - It's not, it's the Jack of diamonds.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54- Look at that. It's amazing. - APPLAUSE
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Wow.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02That's fantastic. Fantastic.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05So, Darren...history.
0:14:06 > 0:14:11- History.- It's one of my worst subjects.- Is it?
0:14:11 > 0:14:19But I think possibly I'm going to go for the system of racial segregation
0:14:19 > 0:14:22in post-war South Africa and say apartheid.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23Apartheid says Darren.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Well, the high scorers are Wendy and Joe on 94.
0:14:25 > 0:14:2966 or less gets you through. Here's what 66 looks like.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Get below that red line, you're in the next round.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Apartheid.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38It's right.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41- Through you go. Just. Look at that. - APPLAUSE
0:14:41 > 0:14:4566 you needed. 61 you got. 88 is your total.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Yeah, good answer. Safely through.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Lasted the best part of 50 years, officially, that system.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Thanks very much indeed. Now, Tess.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56- Hello.- Tess, welcome back. - Thank you.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00- Remind us what you do, Tess. - I'm a tax adviser. Not for HMRC.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Right. And how do you and Steven know each other?
0:15:02 > 0:15:05We met through his lovely Mrs Dominique.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08We go to a rather bonkers dance class together
0:15:08 > 0:15:11and I went round to meet their cat and Stevie was a bonus so...
0:15:11 > 0:15:15And how did you end up here then?
0:15:15 > 0:15:18We went out for a meal with our respective other halves
0:15:18 > 0:15:21and got talking and got talked into it basically.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24- Of course, it's everyone's favourite show.- Aww.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Well, listen, you have to score 86 or less to get through.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30- I know, and it could be a challenge. - Really?
0:15:30 > 0:15:32There's a couple I think I know but I really don't...
0:15:32 > 0:15:35I'm just glad Stevie did so well in the first round cos it gives me
0:15:35 > 0:15:37- a bit of breathing space.- OK.
0:15:38 > 0:15:42So, I am going to go for the battle in the Hundred Years' War
0:15:42 > 0:15:45in which Henry V led the English to victory
0:15:45 > 0:15:47and I'm going to say Agincourt.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Agincourt, says Tess. Agincourt.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Here's your red line, get below that with Agincourt, you're in Round Two.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55Let's see how many people said Agincourt.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00It's right and you're through, well done.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05- 27. - APPLAUSE
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Takes your total up to 34.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13Yes, led the English to victory over the French in 1415.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14Thanks very much indeed.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Now then, Erin, what do you do?
0:16:17 > 0:16:20- I'm training to be an opera singer. - Are you? Where are you training?
0:16:20 > 0:16:21I'm about to start training
0:16:21 > 0:16:24at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester.
0:16:24 > 0:16:25Brilliant, have you been up there?
0:16:25 > 0:16:28- You've auditioned...- Yeah, I've done my auditions, looked around.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30- Do you know who your teachers will be?- I don't yet.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33You get like a trial session with each of them
0:16:33 > 0:16:34and then you can decide who you want.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38- Very exciting indeed. What are your other interests?- Football.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42I have a season ticket at Reading, been going there since I was five.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Wonderful. So there we are.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46You're on 90, you're the high scorers. You have a way out here.
0:16:46 > 0:16:51- Uh-huh.- You have a way out here. It involves scoring 3 or less.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54But I think you can do it. Erin, talk us through the board.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Oh, I wish I could.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00I actually only know, well, I only think I know one on there
0:17:00 > 0:17:02and I'm not even sure it's right.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05But the only Greek mathematician I can think of off the top of my head,
0:17:05 > 0:17:08and I'm not even sure, is Aristotle so I'm going to go for that.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Aristotle?
0:17:10 > 0:17:14I know I've got the wrong end of the word I've started...
0:17:14 > 0:17:16- But, yeah, that's the only... - The totle?- Yeah.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19OK. Well, let's see if Aristotle...
0:17:19 > 0:17:23Let's see if Aristotle's right. There's your red line.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Let's see what happens.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35No, I'm sorry, not Aristotle. That scores you 100 points.
0:17:35 > 0:17:36- Takes your total up to 190. - Sorry, Erin.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38As you say, you got the wrong end of the word
0:17:38 > 0:17:41and I can't give you any credit for getting the right start of the word,
0:17:41 > 0:17:44we've told you what it begins with. ERIN LAUGHS
0:17:44 > 0:17:48Yeah, Aristotle was a philosopher and scientist. This is Archimedes.
0:17:48 > 0:17:49Archimedes.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52That would have scored you 35. The Germanic tribe...
0:17:52 > 0:17:53it's where we get the name England from.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56- The Angles.- The Angles, yeah. Would have scored you 12.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00- The Pope. Best answer up there. - I don't know.
0:18:00 > 0:18:05Pope Adrian. Would've scored you 5. And the city is Alexandria.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07And that would have scored you 15.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09Thank you very much indeed.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11So at the end of our first round, the pair heading home
0:18:11 > 0:18:14with their high score of 190, I'm afraid, Erin and Andrea.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Prince Albert.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20- I don't know what he thought he was doing scoring 90 there.- I know.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23- He let me down.- He really did. I'm so sorry.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26But, yeah, it's all his fault. We have to say goodbye to you now.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28- But you'll be back next time. - Thank you.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30And I'm sure you'll go much, much further.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Thanks very much for playing, Erin and Andrea.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35APPLAUSE
0:18:35 > 0:18:38But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44And so we're down to three pairs.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46At the end of this round we have to say goodbye
0:18:46 > 0:18:48to another pair in time for our head-to-head round.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Tess' team, lovely low score there.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Arizona, the ship at Pearl Harbor. Very well done.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Sam and Darren, not bad at all.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58- And Wendy and Joe, through you come to Round Two.- Yay.- Yay.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Here's what it looks like. It's great to have you here.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Our category for Round Two today is...
0:19:08 > 0:19:12Can you all decide in your pairs who'll go first, who'll go second?
0:19:12 > 0:19:14And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:19:20 > 0:19:25We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many British celebrities
0:19:25 > 0:19:30under 30 on the 2013 Rich List as they could.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32ALEXANDER REPEATS QUESTION
0:19:32 > 0:19:33Richard.
0:19:33 > 0:19:38Yeah, Heat magazine published their 30 richest celebrities under 30 list.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41It's all musicians and actors, there's no sports stars or royals
0:19:41 > 0:19:45or anything like that in it, so who are those 30 richest people under 30?
0:19:45 > 0:19:48When there's a band involved, we need individual members.
0:19:48 > 0:19:49They all count individually
0:19:49 > 0:19:51so there's slightly more than 30 names on the list.
0:19:51 > 0:19:52Very best of luck.
0:19:52 > 0:19:56- Thanks very much indeed. Tess. - Hmm.- Fun round.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00- Yeah.- Isn't it?- Could be.- It's fun.
0:20:00 > 0:20:06- Um... What are you thinking of? - I am going to say...
0:20:10 > 0:20:12- Emma Watson.- Emma Watson.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many
0:20:14 > 0:20:16of our 100 people said Emma Watson.
0:20:18 > 0:20:19It's right.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27- 20. - APPLAUSE
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Good answer. 20 for Emma Watson.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32Well played, Tess, she's number five on that list.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36- She's estimated to be worth £27.9 million.- Wow.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38She was my little next door neighbour.
0:20:38 > 0:20:42- So you knew her before she even had the role?- Yeah.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43Thanks very much indeed.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46- Sam.- Hmm.
0:20:46 > 0:20:50I'm going to hope that One Direction
0:20:50 > 0:20:52have made enough money to be on this list.
0:20:52 > 0:20:56So I'm going to name a member of One Direction and I'm going to say...
0:20:57 > 0:21:01- ..Zayn Malik.- Zayn Malik. Oh, he picked the right one.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- Yeah, he's our favourite. - He picked the right one.
0:21:03 > 0:21:04Zayn Malik, says Sam...
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said Zayn Malik.
0:21:10 > 0:21:11It's right.
0:21:12 > 0:21:17Well, 20 is our only score so far. Zayn passes that.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19- Oh, 5. Look at that. - APPLAUSE
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Very well done indeed, Sam.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26- Oh, we love Zayn, don't we?- Yes, we do.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Yeah, worth a fortune as well. Spells his name with a Y,
0:21:29 > 0:21:31but originally, it was spelt with an I.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33He changed it. Thought it looked better.
0:21:33 > 0:21:38Thank you very much indeed. Wendy, what are you going to go for?
0:21:38 > 0:21:39Hopefully, someone that's under 30,
0:21:39 > 0:21:42but I'm not sure if the person I'm thinking of
0:21:42 > 0:21:44may have just topped over that.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47- I'm going to go with Adele. - Adele, says Wendy. Adele.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said Adele.
0:21:54 > 0:21:55It's right.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01Look at that. 23 for Adele.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04- APPLAUSE - Not bad at all.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09Yeah, sixth on the list. 27.5 million, she's got.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12She's got ten Grammys, she's got an Oscar,
0:22:12 > 0:22:16- all by the age of 25.- Wow. - Not bad going, is it?
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Not bad going at all. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21While we're halfway through, let's take a look at those scores.
0:22:21 > 0:22:235, Sam. Look at that. 5 for Zayn Malik.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26Great answer there. Then up to 20, where we find Tess and Steven.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Then up to 23, where we find Wendy and Joe.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32Joe, we just need a nice, obscure answer from you
0:22:32 > 0:22:34to keep you in the game.
0:22:34 > 0:22:35We're going to come back down the line.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:22:41 > 0:22:45- OK, so, Joe...- Yes? - ..you're the high scorers.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49- We need a nice, obscure answer. - I'm kind of struggling a little bit.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51I've gone a bit sort of braindead,
0:22:51 > 0:22:55but I'm going to go for another One Direction member
0:22:55 > 0:22:56and say Niall Horan.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00- Niall Horan.- Yeah. - Niall Horan, says Joe.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02I like what you've done there. I think this could be good.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Well, no red line for you as you are the high scorers,
0:23:05 > 0:23:08but let's see how far down the column we get with Niall Horan.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12It's right.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Well, Zayn scored 5.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18What is Niall going to score?
0:23:18 > 0:23:194.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21APPLAUSE
0:23:21 > 0:23:224 for Niall takes your total up
0:23:22 > 0:23:24to 27. Very well done.
0:23:25 > 0:23:29Someone put a piece of half-eaten toast of his up on eBay.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35- Of Niall's?- Yeah, yeah, yeah. Went for £475,000.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39- No, it didn't.- Of course it didn't. LAUGHTER
0:23:39 > 0:23:42I was going to say, that sounds like a granary slice.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Anyway, there we go.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47OK, Darren, you want to score 21 or less.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50Well, Sam's given such a good answer
0:23:50 > 0:23:55that I think I should just get one that I think is on the list
0:23:55 > 0:23:59and so stick with the magic theme and go Daniel Radcliffe.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02Daniel Radcliffe, says Darren. OK, let's see if that's right.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04Let's see how many people said Daniel Radcliffe.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06There's your red line.
0:24:09 > 0:24:10It's right.
0:24:14 > 0:24:1626.
0:24:16 > 0:24:1826, taking your total up to 31.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21You are the new high scorers.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Yeah, he's second on the list, Daniel Radcliffe.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26He's worth £56 million, they reckon.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29- And he's a friend of Pointless. - He is a friend of Pointless.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31- A fan of the show. We love Daniel Radcliffe.- We do.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Sometimes, I think I like Daniel Radcliffe more
0:24:34 > 0:24:36than I like Zayn Malik and that is saying it.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- I mean, you know how much I like Zayn Malik.- Yeah, yeah.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42- You've seen my shrine, right? - Shrine? It's more than that.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44- It's a temple now, isn't it? - It is a temple.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47But, yeah, Daniel Radcliffe I think even edges him out.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49There we go.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Steven, now, right, here we are.
0:24:51 > 0:24:56We have a game on our hands here. You have to score ten or less.
0:24:56 > 0:25:00Ten or less, Steven. Ten or less. Come on. You can do it.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02- I'm going to have to go a bit weird.- Mm-hm.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04I don't mean me weird, but a weird answer.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06That's a bit disappointing, but yes.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10So, Tinie Tempah, please.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Tinie Tempah.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15OK, Tinie Tempah. What do you think, Tess?
0:25:16 > 0:25:20I'd have probably gone Professor Green, but I don't know.
0:25:20 > 0:25:21OK. Well, listen, there's your red line.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Get below that with Tinie Tempah, you're through to the next round.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27Let's see if Tinie Tempah's right and how many people said it.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33- Oh!- Ooh!
0:25:33 > 0:25:35I'm sorry, Steven. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39Scores you the maximum of 100 points. 120 is your total.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41- Not so Tinie Tempah. - No. Well, no, young enough.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44He's 25, but, yeah, not rich enough, I'm afraid.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46He's got plenty of money. Don't worry about him.
0:25:46 > 0:25:47But, yeah, not on the list of 30.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49He's going to be in a massive temper now.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51LAUGHTER
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Even worse, Stevie, if you'd gone with
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Tess's answer of Professor Green,
0:25:55 > 0:25:58you also would have scored 100 points cos he's not on the list either.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Now, let's take a look at some of the pointless answers.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06Aaron Taylor-Johnson, the actor, was on the list.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Alex Turner from the Arctic Monkeys - worth over 10 million.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11Duffy, the Welsh singer, also on the list.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Gemma Arterton, another actress. She was on the list.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17James Morrison, the singer-songwriter.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19Joss Stone, the singer.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23Katie Melua, another singer. Marvin Humes from JLS.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27The other members of JLS - JB, Ashton and Oritse -
0:26:27 > 0:26:28all scored 1 point.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Don't know what happened. Poor old Marvin.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32And Nadine Coyle from Girls Aloud.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35A few other pointless answers you could have had -
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Emily Blunt, Florence Welch from Florence And The Machine.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41You could have had Mika. You could have had Coleen Rooney as well.
0:26:41 > 0:26:42They all would have been pointless.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44I'll give you another few of these low scorers.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Carey Mulligan is a low scorer at 1 point.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48Leona Lewis, 1 point. Nicola Roberts, 1 point.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51Andrew Garfield, 1 point. Lily Allen, 2.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Calvin Harris would have scored you 2 points.
0:26:54 > 0:26:55Charlotte Church scores 3 points.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58Some of these people are quite surprising, aren't they?
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Louis Tomlinson from One Direction, 5 - the same as Zayn.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Keira Knightley would have scored you 5.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Liam from One Direction would have scored you 6.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07And the top three, let's take a look.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Well, we've seen the top two - Daniel Radcliffe and Adele.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13And the only missing member of One Direction was Harry Styles
0:27:13 > 0:27:15and he would have scored you 21 points.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18- There's the other two there. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20So, at the end of our second round, the pair heading home
0:27:20 > 0:27:22with the highest score of 120,
0:27:22 > 0:27:25our head-to-headers from last time, Steven and Tess.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27- It wasn't to be.- Oh, I'm sorry.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Emma Watson just turned out to be quite a high scorer there.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33- Yeah, sadly. - And Tinie Tempah just...
0:27:33 > 0:27:36I'm going to have a much bigger temper when we've left the set.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38Well, it's been lovely having you on both shows.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40Thank you so much for playing. Steven and Tess!
0:27:40 > 0:27:43APPLAUSE
0:27:43 > 0:27:45But for Joe and Wendy and Sam and Darren,
0:27:45 > 0:27:47it's now time for the head-to-head.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Well, congratulations, Sam and Darren, Wendy and Joe.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57You're now one step closer to the final and the chance
0:27:57 > 0:28:01to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at £2,500.
0:28:01 > 0:28:05APPLAUSE
0:28:05 > 0:28:07Well, this is more like it, Wendy and Joe.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Round 1 last time. Here you are in the head-to-head.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11And the great thing is, you can now chat.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13You can pool all your knowledge
0:28:13 > 0:28:15and I think you'll be a real force to be reckoned with.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18Sam and Darren seem to have magicked their way
0:28:18 > 0:28:21into being our golden couple, the lowest-scoring pair.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23But, no, you haven't put a foot wrong at all.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25Some great answers from you as well.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27I think this will be very close. Best of luck to both pairs.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29Let's play the head-to-head.
0:28:29 > 0:28:34APPLAUSE
0:28:34 > 0:28:37OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:28:41 > 0:28:441960s Film Posters. Richard.
0:28:44 > 0:28:46We're going to show you five 1960s film posters now,
0:28:46 > 0:28:48but we've removed the names of the films.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50Can you tell us what they are, please?
0:28:50 > 0:28:53OK, let's reveal our five film posters and here they come.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55We've got...
0:29:20 > 0:29:23So, there we are. Five film posters from the 1960s.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26Sam and Darren, you've been our low scorers throughout the show
0:29:26 > 0:29:27so you will go first.
0:29:28 > 0:29:29I don't know any there.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32I think C might be The Time Machine by HG Wells.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34I know that's a book by him.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38I think B might be... I don't know if it's Lawrence Of Arabia or not.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41Just go with the one you're the most confident with.
0:29:41 > 0:29:45Um, we are not 100% sure of any of the five
0:29:45 > 0:29:47so we're going to have
0:29:47 > 0:29:49to take a bit of a guess at C
0:29:49 > 0:29:51cos it's an HG Wells
0:29:51 > 0:29:53and say The Time Machine.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55The Time Machine, say Sam and Darren.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57The Time Machine.
0:29:57 > 0:29:59Now, Wendy and Joe, that board is all yours.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02Do you want to talk us through it and fill in the blanks?
0:30:02 > 0:30:06We think the first one, A, is probably Bonnie And Clyde.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10B may be Lawrence Of Arabia.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12Not sure about C and E,
0:30:12 > 0:30:15but we're going to go for D, which we think is My Fair Lady.
0:30:15 > 0:30:18My Fair Lady, say Wendy and Joe. My Fair Lady.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21So, we have The Time Machine versus My Fair Lady.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23Sam and Darren said The Time Machine.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said it.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30It's right.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36It's a good answer. Look at that. Down to 12.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39Very well done indeed, Sam and Darren.
0:30:39 > 0:30:42APPLAUSE
0:30:42 > 0:30:46Meanwhile, Wendy and Joe have said that D is My Fair Lady.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said that.
0:30:49 > 0:30:50My Fair Lady.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54It's right.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57Is it going to beat 12?
0:30:57 > 0:30:59Ooh, 36 for My Fair Lady.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01APPLAUSE
0:31:01 > 0:31:03Well done, Sam and Darren.
0:31:03 > 0:31:05- After one question, you're up one-nil.- Well worked out, gents.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08Only one answer would have beaten The Time Machine.
0:31:08 > 0:31:09We'll get on to that in a moment.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11We'll take you through the first couple.
0:31:11 > 0:31:12You're right about Bonnie And Clyde.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15Would have scored too many points, though.
0:31:15 > 0:31:16Would have scored you 30.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19You were also right about Lawrence Of Arabia.
0:31:19 > 0:31:21That's the biggest scorer of all, though. Would have scored 52.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23And the last answer is the best answer.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26There was a comedy sketch troupe named after this film.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29It's The League Of Gentlemen.
0:31:30 > 0:31:323 points. Very well done if you said that.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35Thanks very much indeed. OK, here comes your second question.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37Wendy and Joe, you get to answer it first,
0:31:37 > 0:31:39but you have to win it to stay in the game so best of luck.
0:31:39 > 0:31:40It concerns...
0:31:44 > 0:31:46The Human Lungs.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49I'm going to show you five clues, some facts about the human lungs.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51Just need to give us the most obscure answer.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54OK, let's reveal our facts and here they are.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16I'll read those all one last time.
0:32:32 > 0:32:36OK, Wendy and Joe, it's over to you. Feel free to confer.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38- So, the bottom one is the TB.- Yeah.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40And the one above is oxygen.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43Yeah? It takes oxygen from
0:32:43 > 0:32:46- the blood, doesn't it?- Yeah.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49Um, we're going to go for the bottom one,
0:32:49 > 0:32:52which we think was TB - tuberculosis.
0:32:52 > 0:32:55TB, say Wendy and Joe. TB.
0:32:55 > 0:32:57Now, Sam and Darren, the board is yours.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59Do you want to do some talking through it
0:32:59 > 0:33:01and some thinking out loud?
0:33:01 > 0:33:04Um, yes. Top one, I'm not sure about.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06Um, the dome-shaped muscle,
0:33:06 > 0:33:08I believe, is the diaphragm.
0:33:08 > 0:33:13Um, I think what we're going to go for,
0:33:13 > 0:33:16it might be right, is the tiny air sacs in the lungs.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19- I think alveoli.- Alveoli.
0:33:19 > 0:33:23OK, so, we have tuberculosis and we have alveoli.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26Wendy and Joe said tuberculosis. Let's see if that's right
0:33:26 > 0:33:28and if it is, let's see how many people said that.
0:33:31 > 0:33:32It's right.
0:33:36 > 0:33:3739.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40- APPLAUSE - 39 for tuberculosis.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44Sam and Darren have gone for alveoli.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46It sounds like a brilliant answer.
0:33:46 > 0:33:49- How confident are you?- Not very.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51OK, well, let's find out if it's right.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54If it's right, that'll be good news. Alveoli, is it right?
0:33:57 > 0:33:58It is right.
0:34:01 > 0:34:02And you are through to the final.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04Very well done indeed.
0:34:04 > 0:34:07- 20 for alveoli. Good work. - APPLAUSE
0:34:08 > 0:34:10Which means, Sam and Darren, after only two questions,
0:34:10 > 0:34:12you're straight through to the final two-nil.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14Terrific answer, alveoli.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17Delicious as well with some lemon, olive oil, a little bit of Parmesan.
0:34:17 > 0:34:18Absolutely lovely.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22The membranous sac is the pleura. There's two of them.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Pleura would have scored you 7 points.
0:34:25 > 0:34:29The dome-shaped muscle, you were absolutely right, was the diaphragm.
0:34:29 > 0:34:30That would have scored 35 points.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33Actually would have still won you the points.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36And during respiration, they remove carbon dioxide from the blood,
0:34:36 > 0:34:39but that's 52 points so pleura is the best answer up there.
0:34:39 > 0:34:41Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43The pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:34:43 > 0:34:45I'm afraid it's Wendy and Joe.
0:34:45 > 0:34:47- You've done so much better this time.- Yeah.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49We actually got to see a bit more of you.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52Did you know other ones in the film poster round?
0:34:52 > 0:34:54We wouldn't have got that last one, no.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56- Not the one to beat Time Machine, no.- No? OK.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59Oh, well, you have played so well and it's been lovely having you.
0:34:59 > 0:35:00Thank you for playing.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02- Wendy and Joe, great contestants. - Thank you.
0:35:02 > 0:35:04- Well done, guys.- Good luck, guys.
0:35:04 > 0:35:07But for Sam and Darren, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:07 > 0:35:10APPLAUSE
0:35:10 > 0:35:12Congratulations, Sam and Darren.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14You fought off all the competition
0:35:14 > 0:35:16and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:24 > 0:35:28and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £2,500.
0:35:28 > 0:35:32APPLAUSE
0:35:32 > 0:35:34Well, well done. I mean, well done, you.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36Some good scoring throughout.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38You weren't the lowest scorers in the first two rounds,
0:35:38 > 0:35:40but then you came into the head-to-head two-nil.
0:35:40 > 0:35:43HG Wells, that was an inspired guess, The Time Machine there.
0:35:43 > 0:35:44Have you seen The Time Machine?
0:35:44 > 0:35:46No, never seen it, but I think I read the book,
0:35:46 > 0:35:48possibly in English literature at school.
0:35:48 > 0:35:50And it looked like a kind of scenario from the book?
0:35:50 > 0:35:52We weren't born until 1988
0:35:52 > 0:35:56- so we struggled with '60s posters.- Yeah.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58With respect, we weren't born in the '60s either, were we?
0:35:58 > 0:36:00Yeah, that's a good point.
0:36:00 > 0:36:02- But we had a good crack at it as well.- Yeah!- Yeah.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04Richard doesn't like people saying that.
0:36:04 > 0:36:06(He doesn't like that.)
0:36:06 > 0:36:08Anything you'd like to see come up in this last round?
0:36:08 > 0:36:09We hope for some sport.
0:36:09 > 0:36:13- That was what we've been hoping for all the way through.- Best of luck.
0:36:13 > 0:36:14As always, you get to choose your category
0:36:14 > 0:36:16from the four we put up on the board.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18Let's see what the four are.
0:36:19 > 0:36:20We've got...
0:36:26 > 0:36:29- Brilliant.- Almost everything you asked for, I think, isn't it?
0:36:29 > 0:36:31LAUGHTER
0:36:31 > 0:36:34- What do you know about MPs? - Not much.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36Royal births, deaths and marriages?
0:36:36 > 0:36:38- Not much about them either. - HE LAUGHS
0:36:38 > 0:36:40- I think it's got to be one of them two.- You choose.
0:36:40 > 0:36:44Let's go Royal Births, Deaths And Marriages.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47- Royal Births, Deaths And Marriages. Richard.- OK, good luck, gents.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50Sorry there's no Sport there for you. Here's your three choices.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52We're looking for the years of death
0:36:52 > 0:36:54of any British monarch from the House of Hanover,
0:36:54 > 0:36:56so from George I to Queen Victoria.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58We're looking for the years of birth
0:36:58 > 0:37:02of any monarch from Henry III all the way through to Elizabeth I.
0:37:02 > 0:37:05Or the years of marriage of any of George VI descendants.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07So, the years of deaths
0:37:07 > 0:37:09of any monarch from George I to Queen Victoria,
0:37:09 > 0:37:13years of birth of any monarch from Henry III to Elizabeth I
0:37:13 > 0:37:15or the years of marriage of any of George VI descendants.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20OK, as always, you've got up to one minute
0:37:20 > 0:37:21to come up with three answers.
0:37:21 > 0:37:25All we need is for just one pointless answer among those three
0:37:25 > 0:37:28- and that will win you that jackpot. Are you ready?- Yes.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34Right, I remember when
0:37:34 > 0:37:36Queen Victoria died.
0:37:36 > 0:37:40- That was 1901.- Right, OK.- Um...
0:37:40 > 0:37:42- Years of marriages, I suppose, is the one after that.- Right.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45- I don't actually know any years of birth from the Tudors.- No.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47As far as I can help you is that
0:37:47 > 0:37:49Kate and William
0:37:49 > 0:37:51got married in 2012.
0:37:51 > 0:37:52What about Charles?
0:37:52 > 0:37:54- Charles and Camilla?- Um...
0:37:54 > 0:37:56Or Charles and Princess Diana?
0:37:56 > 0:37:58I'm not sure what Princess Diana and Charles was.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00I think it was before we were born, wasn't it?
0:38:00 > 0:38:03- But I'm not 100% sure.- Yeah.
0:38:03 > 0:38:07Charles and Camilla, shall we take a guess? I think that's about 2005.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09It was around the Grand National.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12- Oh, yeah, cos it changed, didn't it?- Yeah.- 2003.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15- When they changed the Grand National?- That was 2003.
0:38:15 > 0:38:16- No, it wasn't.- No?- No.
0:38:16 > 0:38:17- It was later than that.- 2005.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19It must have been 2003.
0:38:19 > 0:38:20I think it was 2006.
0:38:20 > 0:38:22I think earlier than that.
0:38:22 > 0:38:2310 seconds left.
0:38:23 > 0:38:24It was 2003...
0:38:24 > 0:38:29- I'd say 2006.- 2006 was... - All right, yeah, we'll go for it.
0:38:29 > 0:38:30You know better than me.
0:38:32 > 0:38:33OK, that's your time up.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36I now need your three answers. What are you going to go for?
0:38:36 > 0:38:41OK, we're going to go for year of death of Queen Victoria as 1901.
0:38:41 > 0:38:431901.
0:38:43 > 0:38:48And then we will possibly go for some marriages.
0:38:48 > 0:38:52Charles and Camilla possibly 2003.
0:38:52 > 0:38:542003.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56And should we do another one for Charles and Camilla
0:38:56 > 0:38:59or should we try...? Someone will know Will and Kate.
0:38:59 > 0:39:00So, shall we hedge our bets?
0:39:00 > 0:39:02So, we'll try...
0:39:02 > 0:39:06We'll try and hedge our bets and say 2005 as well.
0:39:06 > 0:39:102005. OK, so, we've got Queen Victoria's death - 1901.
0:39:10 > 0:39:152003 and 2005 as two possible dates for Charles and Camilla.
0:39:15 > 0:39:18Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:18 > 0:39:19Well, we only know one of them is right
0:39:19 > 0:39:22- so we'll put Queen Victoria last. - OK, Queen Victoria.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24So, 1901 goes last. Least likely?
0:39:24 > 0:39:27- 2003.- 2003.- 2003, we'll put first.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29OK, let's pop those answers up on the board in that order.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32And here they are. We've got the following dates...
0:39:35 > 0:39:39OK, let's say one of these answers does win that jackpot for you.
0:39:39 > 0:39:422,500 quid - quite a nice jackpot. What would you do with it?
0:39:42 > 0:39:45Um, well, me and Sam and seven of our other friends
0:39:45 > 0:39:48are all going to Las Vegas in a few weeks' time
0:39:48 > 0:39:51so we'd probably take it along with us for some extra spending money.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54- Very good indeed. Sam? - Yeah, pretty much the same
0:39:54 > 0:39:58or I might even treat myself to a season ticket at Leeds United.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00OK, well, very, very best of luck.
0:40:00 > 0:40:01We are looking, in this case,
0:40:01 > 0:40:03for the date of the wedding of Charles and Camilla.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06Let's find out if it's right, 2003. Let's find out if it's pointless.
0:40:06 > 0:40:10If it's both of those things, you will win £2,500.
0:40:14 > 0:40:16No.
0:40:16 > 0:40:20OK, the first of the bets you're hedging is wrong.
0:40:20 > 0:40:23Not a pointless answer. Only two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:23 > 0:40:27The second bet you were going to put on Charles and Camilla was 2005.
0:40:27 > 0:40:28Let's see if that's right.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32If that's right and it's pointless, you win £2,500.
0:40:32 > 0:40:36Let's see if it's right. How many people said 2005?
0:40:40 > 0:40:42It's right!
0:40:42 > 0:40:442005 was right.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46Well done for sticking to your guns there, Darren.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49Your first answer, 2003, was incorrect.
0:40:49 > 0:40:522005 now taking us down through single figures. Down it goes.
0:40:52 > 0:40:53Going down, down. You've got it!
0:40:53 > 0:40:56- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Very well done indeed.
0:40:56 > 0:41:01Oh, superb. Very well done. Fantastic work.
0:41:04 > 0:41:07- Cos of the Grand National! - Oh, congratulations.
0:41:07 > 0:41:092005 was a pointless answer,
0:41:09 > 0:41:14which means you leave here with the jackpot of £2,500.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17APPLAUSE
0:41:21 > 0:41:25I was sure it was later than that. I was thinking, "2005? No, no, no."
0:41:25 > 0:41:27We're big horse racing fans
0:41:27 > 0:41:29and they moved the Grand National half an hour
0:41:29 > 0:41:32- to get into their wedding. - Very inconsiderate.
0:41:32 > 0:41:33So, I knew it was around about the time
0:41:33 > 0:41:36that Hedgehunter won the Grand National so that's what we went for.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39- LAUGHTER - Well remembered. There you go.
0:41:39 > 0:41:43You can tell you're both betting men. You essentially placed a spread bet
0:41:43 > 0:41:44on when Charles and Camilla got married.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46It was 2005. But very well played.
0:41:46 > 0:41:48Let's take a look at the pointless answers
0:41:48 > 0:41:50on all the different categories.
0:41:50 > 0:41:53Years of death of any British monarch in the House of Hanover.
0:41:53 > 0:41:571727 was George I and then you've got George IV in 1830.
0:41:57 > 0:41:59They were the two pointless answers.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02Quite a few pointless answers on the years of birth on the next one.
0:42:02 > 0:42:061442 was Edward IV. 1491 is Henry VIII.
0:42:06 > 0:42:101533, Elizabeth I. 1537 was Edward VI.
0:42:10 > 0:42:11Lots of other answers there.
0:42:11 > 0:42:151207, 1239, 1284, 1367,
0:42:15 > 0:42:181457, 1470 and 1516.
0:42:18 > 0:42:19Well done if you said any of those.
0:42:19 > 0:42:21You'll know which monarch you were referring to.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23And the marriages. 1960.
0:42:23 > 0:42:25That was Princess Margaret and Antony Armstrong-Jones.
0:42:25 > 0:42:271992, Princess Anne and Timothy Laurence.
0:42:27 > 0:42:291999, that was Prince Edward
0:42:29 > 0:42:30and Sophie Rhys-Jones.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32And there's 2005.
0:42:32 > 0:42:35You also could have had 1993 - Viscount Linley and Serena Stanhope -
0:42:35 > 0:42:39or 1994, which was Lady Sarah to Daniel Chatto.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Very well done if you said any of those at home.
0:42:41 > 0:42:45Very, very skilfully played jackpot round, if I may say so.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47Thanks very much indeed.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49Well, thanks once again to our winning players,
0:42:49 > 0:42:52Sam and Darren, who go away with today's jackpot of £2,500.
0:42:52 > 0:42:57- Very well done. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:42:57 > 0:42:59Join us next time when we'll put more obscure knowledge
0:42:59 > 0:43:00to the test on Pointless.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
