0:00:17 > 0:00:21APPLAUSE
0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you very much, indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong,
0:00:24 > 0:00:25and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:25 > 0:00:28the show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33APPLAUSE
0:00:33 > 0:00:37- And couple number one...- Hello, I'm Nick. This is my friend John.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39We've been friends for 15 years
0:00:39 > 0:00:42and we met through the Rotary Club of Billericay, Mayflower.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45- Couple number two.- Hi, I'm David. This is my sister Rebecca.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48I live in West London and she lives in Surrey.
0:00:48 > 0:00:49Couple number three.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Keith.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53I'm from Wigan and this is my daughter, Bernie,
0:00:53 > 0:00:54who lives in London.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57- And finally, couple number four. - Hi, I'm William.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00This is my mum Claire, and we're from Kenilworth in Warwickshire.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03And these are today's contestants.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Thanks very much, all of you. We'll find out more about you
0:01:05 > 0:01:07throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12His rap name is MC squared.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14- It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18Afternoon, everybody. APPLAUSE
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- Good afternoon to you.- And to you.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22- They seem like a nice bunch, don't they?- Don't they?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25- Yeah, I think it's going to be fun. - I thought you said,
0:01:25 > 0:01:26"I think it's going to be fine."
0:01:26 > 0:01:28- No, I think it's going to be fun. - It's going to be fun.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31- I'm sure it will be fine. - I'm sure it'll be fine, too.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Always lovely to hear a proper Wigan accident, isn't it?
0:01:33 > 0:01:35- Isn't that nice? - One of the great accents, Keith,
0:01:35 > 0:01:37- thank you for that.- Thank you.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39We've only got one pair returning from last time -
0:01:39 > 0:01:42- it's Claire and William, who had a very interesting game.- Yes.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Round One, William gave us an incorrect answer -
0:01:44 > 0:01:47a slightly unfortunate incorrect answer - and knocked them out.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Claire gave us a fantastic answer,
0:01:49 > 0:01:51so, even though they were knocked out in Round One,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54I suspect they might be a force to be reckoned with in the show today.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56Thanks very much, indeed.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Well, Tim and Duncan won the jackpot last time,
0:01:59 > 0:02:03so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000. There it is.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11So, remember, the pair with the highest score
0:02:11 > 0:02:16at the end of each round will be eliminated - the highest score.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Our first category today...
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Euro Pop. Can you all decide in your pairs
0:02:22 > 0:02:24who is going to go first, who is going to go second.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:02:32 > 0:02:37We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:02:41 > 0:02:43..as they could. Eurovision 2014. Richard.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Yes, simply looking for any of the 26 countries that
0:02:45 > 0:02:49competed in the Grand Finals at Eurovision 2014, in Copenhagen.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54Marvellous. Thanks very much, indeed. John, welcome.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Very warm welcome to Pointless. Lovely to have you here.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58- You're here from Billericay. - I do indeed, yes.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Ah, the birthplace of our very own Richard Osman.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02- I know, yeah.- You understand.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05What do you do in Billericay? What occupies you there, John?
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Well, I'm retired now,
0:03:06 > 0:03:10although I do have a hobby which kind of took over,
0:03:10 > 0:03:12and became a small business.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15- What was that?- Picture-framing. I'm a picture-framer.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18So, did you go off and learn picture-framing or is it something
0:03:18 > 0:03:19you're just born with?
0:03:19 > 0:03:22My wife and I both retired at the same time...
0:03:22 > 0:03:26- Yeah.- ..and my wife was a keen artist, and went on an art course.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28- It was a residential course...- Yes.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30..so I thought, "I'll go and see what's on."
0:03:30 > 0:03:32- A picture-framing course. - Perfect.- So, what I do?
0:03:32 > 0:03:34- Picture-framing. - So she does the pictures,
0:03:34 > 0:03:37- you frame them.- Exactly, yes. - LAUGHTER
0:03:37 > 0:03:39OK, now, what are you going to go for, John?
0:03:39 > 0:03:41I can see just from looking at you that you are
0:03:41 > 0:03:43a keen follower of Eurovision.
0:03:43 > 0:03:44Croatia.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Croatia. Let's see if that's right,
0:03:46 > 0:03:48and let's see how many of our 100 said Croatia.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- Oh...- Oh, I'm sorry, John.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56- Ah! I'm sure it was.- I'm so sorry.
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Oh, it has been, I'm sure,
0:03:57 > 0:04:00but I'm afraid they didn't quite make the grade.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Imagine not making the grade for Eurovision.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04- I know, I know. - That's quite something, isn't it?
0:04:04 > 0:04:06100 points, I'm afraid, that scores you.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08- They actually pulled out, Croatia. - Oh, they pulled out?
0:04:08 > 0:04:11- Yes, they didn't take part. - I knew they were in it.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13No, they weren't in it. LAUGHTER
0:04:13 > 0:04:16That's...they pulled out. Everyone else who didn't pull out was in it.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18In protest of something or just because...?
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Did something go terribly wrong? Did one of them have a sore throat?
0:04:21 > 0:04:24No, just in terms of taste. They just said, "We can't...
0:04:24 > 0:04:25"We're not going to do it."
0:04:25 > 0:04:27We're having nothing to do with this shower.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30Yeah, no, they had... They cited organisational difficulties,
0:04:30 > 0:04:32- but how hard is it to write a song?- Yeah.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38So, David, yes, welcome. What do you do, David?
0:04:38 > 0:04:41I work in classical music.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43I'm an associate artist manager, so I look after
0:04:43 > 0:04:46classical musicians that perform around the world.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49So, I mean, soloists, orchestras...?
0:04:49 > 0:04:53Yeah, I work with two pianists, one violinist
0:04:53 > 0:04:55and an orchestra conductor, as well.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57So, you're sort of an agent, really?
0:04:57 > 0:04:58Yes, exactly, yeah.
0:04:58 > 0:04:59So, and you're getting out...
0:04:59 > 0:05:03working out which concert platforms of the world require them.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Well, it is... That's part of it and then some of it is more mundane,
0:05:06 > 0:05:08just, you know, who's going to pick them up from the hotel
0:05:08 > 0:05:11the next morning, things like that. Logistics, as well.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14I mean, classical music, it's a hell of a job, that, isn't it?
0:05:14 > 0:05:17I mean, it is mostly travelling. It's a lot of hotel rooms, isn't it?
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Well, that's right, of course, it's performed all around the world.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Yeah, and that's if you're lucky enough to be successful, of course.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25- Yes.- Yeah. - And some people, really,
0:05:25 > 0:05:27- are very successful. - Yeah.- It's great.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29OK, David, what are you going to go...?
0:05:29 > 0:05:31I mean, do you watch Eurovision at all?
0:05:31 > 0:05:32Yes, in fact we...
0:05:32 > 0:05:36Well, you know, I'm not, I wouldn't describe myself as a huge fan,
0:05:36 > 0:05:37but I did watch it,
0:05:37 > 0:05:41and I'm getting confused in my mind between all the countries
0:05:41 > 0:05:44that supplied their votes at the end,
0:05:44 > 0:05:47versus the countries that actually performed on the night.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50So, one that I think...
0:05:50 > 0:05:54I'm almost certain performed - Lithuania.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Lithuania, says David. Let's see if that's right.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Let's see how many people said Lithuania.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03- Oh, no.- Oh, my...
0:06:03 > 0:06:07Well, you're in very, very good company, David and John.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08Another 100 pointer, there,
0:06:08 > 0:06:10I'm afraid to say.
0:06:10 > 0:06:15- Really, genuinely terrific start to the show.- Isn't it? Just great.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17It's a pleasure to watch. Yeah, they got knocked out in the semifinal.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19They had a song called Attention.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23- Sounds good.- Turns out it wasn't.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- Yeah... Thanks very much, indeed. - LAUGHTER
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- Now, Bernie, welcome.- Hello. - Lovely to have you on Pointless.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30- Thank you.- What do you do, Bernie?
0:06:30 > 0:06:34I work as an environmental consultant for an engineering firm.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37OK, and Bernie, what you get up to when you're not doing that?
0:06:37 > 0:06:39I go... I travel a lot...
0:06:39 > 0:06:43erm, and go and watch a lot of live music.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47- Excellent. Now, we've had two 100s, Bernie.- Mm-hmm.- Two 100s.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Please, let's have a correct answer.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Erm, I hate to say it,
0:06:51 > 0:06:54but I didn't actually watch Eurovision this year, but I do
0:06:54 > 0:07:00remember someone saying about potentially Israel being in there.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02OK, Israel. Let's see if Israel is right,
0:07:02 > 0:07:05and let's see how many of our 100 people said Israel.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Oh, no. Bernie.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- OK, erm... - LAUGHTER
0:07:15 > 0:07:18That's another 100 points. Cent points for Israel.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20I'm sure I'm right in saying there was
0:07:20 > 0:07:22a Eurovision Song Contest in 2014. LAUGHTER
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- I'm almost certain, are you not? - I'm vaguely...
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- I'm sure I remember it. - Yeah, there must have been.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31No, this is quite something.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Erm, wow... Blimey, Claire.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- That's a lot of pressure here. - No pressure, then.
0:07:36 > 0:07:37Remind us, what do you do, Claire?
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Well, what I did, I used to be a catering manager.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42I don't do that any more, thankfully.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46- What do you love doing now?- I love walking. I like to... We like to...
0:07:46 > 0:07:48My husband and I like to travel to...
0:07:48 > 0:07:50round Britain, when we can, with the dog,
0:07:50 > 0:07:54and stop in dog-friendly places for walking holidays, but also
0:07:54 > 0:07:57travelling further afield, as well, abroad, when we get the chance.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Lovely. Did you watch the Eurovision this year?
0:08:01 > 0:08:05I watched a bit at the end. I didn't see it all.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09I think - I'm out on a limb here - but I think Armenia.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Armenia, says Clare.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14What do you think, William?
0:08:14 > 0:08:15Probably played it safe.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Well, let's see. Armenia, is it right?
0:08:17 > 0:08:20How many of our 100 people said Armenia?
0:08:24 > 0:08:28Look at that, Claire. Well done, you. Armenia.
0:08:28 > 0:08:29At long last, a correct answer.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Down it goes, this is incredible.
0:08:31 > 0:08:32Down to 8. Very well done.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34- Great low score. - APPLAUSE
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Another terrific answer from you, Claire. Yeah, very well done.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42They came fourth, in fact, with Not Alone.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44That was the name of that song?
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Their song was called Not Alone, yeah.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48It was about someone who gives somebody some money
0:08:48 > 0:08:50and doesn't need it to be paid back.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53LAUGHTER
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Very good, indeed. Thank you, Richard.
0:08:55 > 0:08:56Well, we're halfway through the round.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58Let's take a look at those scores.
0:08:58 > 0:09:008, the best score of the pass, Claire, very well done.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02I'm going to hazard a guess that William and Claire
0:09:02 > 0:09:04are going to make it into the second round.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06What is going to happen with the other three pairs -
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Keith, Rebecca, and Nick, I'm talking particularly to you -
0:09:09 > 0:09:10is a matter of some conjecture.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12I mean, who knows?
0:09:12 > 0:09:13Best of luck to all those three.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15We're going to come back down the line now.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- Right, now, William.- Hi. - We discovered last time you
0:09:23 > 0:09:26were in your last year studying chemistry
0:09:26 > 0:09:28- at Bristol.- In Bristol. Mm-hmm.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32- Bristol's lovely.- Yeah. - Will you miss it when you leave?
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Definitely, yeah, cos I'm going back up to the Midlands after this,
0:09:35 > 0:09:37- and doing a year in Birmingham. - Good stuff.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- OK, so, William, what are you going to go for?- I've got...
0:09:40 > 0:09:42- Your mother has really set you up well, here.- Yeah.
0:09:42 > 0:09:4591 or less gets you through.
0:09:45 > 0:09:50I've got a quite obscure one, but I'll probably save it
0:09:50 > 0:09:52and just go for the winner,
0:09:52 > 0:09:55who was the...Austria, I think, the bearded lady.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58Austria. Austria, says William. Let's see if that's right,
0:09:58 > 0:10:00and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02There's your red line. Nice and high.
0:10:05 > 0:10:06It's right, and you're through.
0:10:08 > 0:10:0963.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- APPLAUSE - 71, your total.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14Yes, Conchita Wurst, who, yeah,
0:10:14 > 0:10:17won the competition with Rise Like A Phoenix.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19I wonder what William is saving his other answer for?
0:10:19 > 0:10:22He's got an answer he is saving. I don't know what...
0:10:22 > 0:10:23You're going to be disappointed
0:10:23 > 0:10:26if you think Round Two is the same round.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Well, actually, if he's saving it for the end,
0:10:29 > 0:10:31we can have it as a little...
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Right at the end of the show? That'll be nice.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37- That's the sort of thing to keep people watching.- Yeah.
0:10:37 > 0:10:38That's the kind of thing you have to do.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40if you want to find out what William's answer was,
0:10:40 > 0:10:43why don't you keep watching till the end of the show? LAUGHTER
0:10:43 > 0:10:45- We should, yeah... - I bet it's a cracker.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48It will be. It will be, it will be. Keith...
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Now, then, welcome to the show. Lovely to have you here, from Wigan.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54- Yeah.- And what keeps you busy in Wigan, Keith?
0:10:54 > 0:10:57Well, I retired two years ago, and since then,
0:10:57 > 0:11:02I've played a lot of golf, do walking, and community work.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Excellent. And what did you do before you retired?
0:11:04 > 0:11:08I worked as a technology manager for a chemical company that
0:11:08 > 0:11:12made raw materials for the paints and plastics industry.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15- Do you miss that at all?- No.- No.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17I did it for 30 years, enjoyed it,
0:11:17 > 0:11:19- but I'm really enjoying the retirement.- 30 years, yeah.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Very good. Good for you, Keith.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24- Well, listen, you're on 100, I'm afraid.- Yeah.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26What we need is a low score.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30Well, I could play safe and go for a Western European one,
0:11:30 > 0:11:33but I think I'm up against strong opposition, here,
0:11:33 > 0:11:38so I'm going to go Eastern Europe again, and plump for Poland.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Poland, says Keith. Poland.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43No red line for you, as you're joint high-scorers.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Let's see how many of our 100 said Poland. Is it right?
0:11:49 > 0:11:51It is right. Very well done, indeed, Keith.
0:11:53 > 0:11:5646 for Poland. 146, your total.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02Well played, Keith. Donatan and Cleo, who sang We Are Slavic.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Thank you very much, indeed, Richard. Now, then, Rebecca.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08Welcome to the show. Lovely to have you here. What do you do, Rebecca?
0:12:08 > 0:12:10I'm a stay-at-home mum, at the moment, to two lovely children.
0:12:10 > 0:12:15- How old are they?- A two-year-old boy and a two-month-old girl.- Wow.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18That's quite a challenging age, two months. Is she sleeping?
0:12:18 > 0:12:21- As much as a two-month-old does. - Yes.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23- So, not at all, then. - LAUGHTER
0:12:23 > 0:12:25- 146 is the high score.- Yes.
0:12:25 > 0:12:29You are on 100, so 45 or less keeps you in the game.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32Well, I actually had a Eurovision party.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36- Clearly, David wasn't invited. - LAUGHTER
0:12:36 > 0:12:38So, I'm going to go for Azerbaijan.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- Azerbaijan, says Rebecca.- Yeah.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Nick's making a face as if that was the answer he was going to give.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46There's your red line. If you get below that, Rebecca,
0:12:46 > 0:12:48with Azerbaijan, you are through to the next round.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Let's see how many people said Azerbaijan.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00- Well done, you're through.- Yeah! - That's a great answer.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02- Look at that, 13. - Brilliant, well done. - APPLAUSE
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Second-lowest score of the round, Rebecca,
0:13:05 > 0:13:06very well done. 13 for Azerbaijan.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10Yeah, they came 22nd, Azerbaijan, with a song called Start A Fire.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Thank you very much, indeed, Richard.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Now, Nick, welcome to the show. Lovely to have you here.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17- What do you do, Nick? - I'm a retired retailer.
0:13:17 > 0:13:18I've been 40 years in the retail trade,
0:13:18 > 0:13:22but now I devote my energies to charity work.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26I also play tennis, big rugby supporter,
0:13:26 > 0:13:31and I also go dog-training with my cocker spaniel Betty.
0:13:31 > 0:13:32Very good. How old is Betty?
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- Six.- Have you been training her for six years,
0:13:35 > 0:13:37- or have you just...? - No, I took a break.
0:13:37 > 0:13:41- Oh, I see. Right, OK.- But we were so bad, we had to go back.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Sounds like she's quite hard-headed, Betty.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46So, what charity work do you do, Nick?
0:13:46 > 0:13:49Well, through the Rotary Club that John and I belong to,
0:13:49 > 0:13:51we do a lot of events in the Billericay area -
0:13:51 > 0:13:53- put on a big Christmas market every year...- Lovely.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55..and a summer festival as well.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- They're all free events for the people in the area.- Wonderful.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Now, this is what you have to do -
0:14:00 > 0:14:0345 or less, otherwise we have to say goodbye.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Did you watch...? You did have Azerbaijan, didn't you?
0:14:05 > 0:14:09I did, that was going to be my guess...but I did watch it.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12- You did watch it? - We had a party as well.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14I think I was halfway through my second bottle of wine
0:14:14 > 0:14:16by the time the results came out.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19What are you going to go for?
0:14:19 > 0:14:21I'm going to plump for...
0:14:24 > 0:14:27- ..France.- France.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30France. OK, there's your red line. France has to get you below
0:14:30 > 0:14:33that red line if you're going to stay. John, what do you think?
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Ah, it's Western European. It might be popular.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40- I don't know. Just fingers crossed. - Fingers crossed.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42Let's see how many people said France.
0:14:47 > 0:14:48- Oh, God.- Look at that.
0:14:48 > 0:14:5088 for France. Well, it was right, Nick,
0:14:50 > 0:14:52but it was so wrong.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55I'm afraid 88 takes your total up to 188.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58- Oh, dear.- Oh, dear.- That's a huge score, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01They were the guys...they performed that song Moustache,
0:15:01 > 0:15:03about not being able to grow a moustache, and they came last.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- They came last, 26th. - Yeah, that's why I picked them.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09That is a shame, but you know what? It's actually the biggest scorer -
0:15:09 > 0:15:10there isn't a bigger scorer out there.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Any more obscure ones you might have gone for?
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Well, apart from the Scandinavian countries,
0:15:15 > 0:15:18I would have probably... might have had a go for Italy.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Would have scored 55 points,
0:15:20 > 0:15:22so would have knocked you out as well, I'm afraid.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Now, there's no pointless answers at all,
0:15:24 > 0:15:26before we go to William. LAUGHTER
0:15:26 > 0:15:29The best answer would have been Montenegro,
0:15:29 > 0:15:31which would have scored you 7.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33So, Armenia is a terrific answer, so, next best answer,
0:15:33 > 0:15:35so you've done it again.
0:15:35 > 0:15:39And Belarus, who sang Cheesecake, they would have scored you 11 points.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42You would have got 13 for San Marino and for Slovenia,
0:15:42 > 0:15:4415 for Romania, and 21 for Hungary.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48Those are the best answers. We'll take a look at the high-scorers...
0:15:51 > 0:15:52Germany, 74.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56United Kingdom, unbelievably, 81,
0:15:56 > 0:15:58and France were up at the top, 88.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02- But, the round, obviously, is not over...- It's not over yet.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05..till we hear from a certain young gentleman who has a certain
0:16:05 > 0:16:08piece of information that the public has been waiting for, for some time.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10- Would you like to do the honours, Mr Armstrong?- Yes.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Let's go over to William now
0:16:12 > 0:16:14and find out what his answer would have been.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17- William...- It was actually going to be Azerbaijan.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19- You were going to go for Azerbaijan? - Yeah, so it's been said.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22- Oh, they're all piling into Azerbaijan.- Aren't they?
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- Suddenly, everyone...- Everyone wants a bit of that.- They do, don't they?
0:16:25 > 0:16:26Thank you very much, indeed.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29So, at the end of our first round, I'm so sorry to say,
0:16:29 > 0:16:31the pair heading home with a high score of 188...
0:16:31 > 0:16:34It's Nick and John, I'm sorry.
0:16:34 > 0:16:35- I'm sorry.- OK.- Azerbaijan has just
0:16:35 > 0:16:38let so many people down today, hasn't it?
0:16:38 > 0:16:40Well, we just have to look forward
0:16:40 > 0:16:42to seeing you next time, which we shall do,
0:16:42 > 0:16:45but meantime, thanks very much for playing, Nick and John.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51But, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55APPLAUSE
0:16:55 > 0:16:57And so now we're down to three pairs.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59At the end of this round, we'll have to say goodbye to
0:16:59 > 0:17:02another pair in time for our head-to-head round.
0:17:02 > 0:17:03Well done, Claire and William,
0:17:03 > 0:17:05through to Round Two for the first time.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08And also our low scorers, so very well done there.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Well done, David and Rebecca. Rebecca, you went for Azerbaijan,
0:17:11 > 0:17:14the country everyone wanted to say but no-one did, apart from you.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17And well done, Keith and Bernie, just well done.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21Our category for Round Two today is...
0:17:23 > 0:17:25History. Can you all decide in your pairs,
0:17:25 > 0:17:27who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30And who ever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36OK, and the question concerns...
0:17:40 > 0:17:41History's losers, Richard.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43On each board, we are going to show you six clues,
0:17:43 > 0:17:46the answers to which are some of the most famous losers in history.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47Can you tell us who they are?
0:17:47 > 0:17:50- There are going to be 12 in all to have a go at home.- Thanks very much.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52So who are these famous losers?
0:17:52 > 0:17:54And here's our first board of six.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20I'll read those all one last time.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47There we are. Six clues to history's famous losers.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48Rebecca.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52History is an awful subject for me.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56I think I know one, but it is probably quite high,
0:18:56 > 0:18:58but I'll have to go for it.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01I'm going to say the French military leader, Napoleon.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03Napoleon, says Rebecca.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Let's see if Napoleon Bonaparte is right.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07And if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said it.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Absolutely right, of course.
0:19:14 > 0:19:1673 it scores.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18APPLAUSE
0:19:19 > 0:19:22We're getting a lot of high scores for the French, aren't we,
0:19:22 > 0:19:24- on today's show?- Mmm. - Goodness me.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Thank you very much, Richard. Now, Keith.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31History is not my strong point, but I like sport.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35And thinking about the "Fight of the Century,"
0:19:35 > 0:19:38and I think, actually,
0:19:38 > 0:19:41it was Muhammad Ali, before he then went on to beat him twice.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45- so I'll say Muhammad Ali. - Muhammad Ali, says Keith.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48Let's see if it's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54It's right. Good answer, Keith.
0:19:57 > 0:19:5836.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01APPLAUSE
0:20:01 > 0:20:04Well played, Keith. Yes, seems a bit harsh to be including Muhammad Ali
0:20:04 > 0:20:08in a round about losers, but you redressed the balance nicely there.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09Thanks very much indeed.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Claire, the board is all yours, do you want to talk us
0:20:12 > 0:20:14through it and fill in any of the blanks you can?
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Um...
0:20:16 > 0:20:20I feel I should know the racehorse. It might be one called Devon Loch.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24The ski jumper is Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards. The English explorer...
0:20:24 > 0:20:26is Scott.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28And I'm going to go for the captain who lost
0:20:28 > 0:20:31control of HMS Bounty in a munity
0:20:31 > 0:20:33is Captain William Bligh.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35You're going for Captain William Bligh.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39Captain Bligh.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44It's right.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51- 22. - APPLAUSE
0:20:51 > 0:20:5422 for Captain Bligh, our best score of the pass, well done.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Well played, Claire, another very good answer,
0:20:56 > 0:20:59and actually a much better choice than Scott.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03You were right about Scott. But he would have scored you 48 points.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07You're right about Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards as well.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09He would have scored you more, would have scored you 54.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12But do you know what, you were right about Devon Loch too.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14And that would have scored you 7 points if you had said it.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17Thank you very much. We're halfway through the round.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Let's take a look at those scores. 22 the best score of the pass.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22Very well done, Claire and William looking strong at this point.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24Up to 36, Keith and Bernie,
0:21:24 > 0:21:27also looking pretty safe. Rebecca and David,
0:21:27 > 0:21:28out there in front on 73, so, David,
0:21:28 > 0:21:31let's hope there's a nice low score on this board that you know.
0:21:31 > 0:21:35We're going to come back down the line now. Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:37 > 0:21:42OK, let's put six more clues up on the board, and here they come.
0:21:42 > 0:21:43We've got the...
0:22:06 > 0:22:07I'll read those all one last time.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33William. You want to score 50 or less to be sure
0:22:33 > 0:22:35of a place in the head-to-head.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38I feel like I should know the tennis one, but I'm not sure.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42So I'm going to go for the Democrat who lost to George Bush, Al Gore.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Al Gore, says William. Al Gore. Here's your red line.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47If you can get below that, you are in the head-to-head.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Let's see, how many people said Al Gore?
0:22:53 > 0:22:54It's right.
0:22:56 > 0:22:57And you're through.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02- 16. - APPLAUSE
0:23:02 > 0:23:0438 is your total.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Well played, William. Safe and sound.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09He lost it. Of course, won the election, really, got more votes
0:23:09 > 0:23:12and all sorts of things, but he was the loser.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15Thanks very much indeed. Now, Bernie.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17History is not my strong subject,
0:23:17 > 0:23:19so I was going to go for the Al Gore one.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22So the only one that I could really do is the second
0:23:22 > 0:23:26- wife of Henry VIII, and I'm going to say Anne Boleyn.- Anne Boleyn.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30Well, your dad scored 36, you have to score 36 to stay in the game.
0:23:30 > 0:23:31There's your red line.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Let's see if you can get below that with Anne Boleyn.
0:23:35 > 0:23:36It's right.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42- 50. - APPLAUSE
0:23:42 > 0:23:45- 50 takes your total up to 86. - Yes, big score, it is going to
0:23:45 > 0:23:48- be quite exciting on that last podium, isn't it?- Mmm.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Yes. So now, David.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54You have to score 12 or less. Do you want to take us through the board?
0:23:54 > 0:23:56See how many of those you can fill in.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59So, I knew the first two. Of the four that remain...
0:23:59 > 0:24:03I know about the monarch that was killed at the Battle of Bosworth.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04That was Richard III.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07But I think that would score a lot more than 12.
0:24:07 > 0:24:11The tennis one, I really have no clue.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14The Red Army founder, I think, was Lenin.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18But I'm going to go for young pretender,
0:24:18 > 0:24:21who I think was Bonnie Prince Charlie.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Bonnie Prince Charlie, says David.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Now, here's your red line, it is low,
0:24:25 > 0:24:27you have to get below that with Bonnie Prince Charlie.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Will it keep David in the game?
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Ooh, bad luck, 21.
0:24:46 > 0:24:4821 takes your total up to 94.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51Yeah, it's a good answer. Unlucky.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54There is an answer up there that would have won it for you.
0:24:54 > 0:24:55It's the Marxist Red Army founder,
0:24:55 > 0:24:58but it wasn't Lenin, I'm afraid. It was Leon Trotsky.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00Would have scored seven points.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02The monarch was Richard III,
0:25:02 > 0:25:04as you suggested.
0:25:04 > 0:25:05That would have scored you 45.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08And the tennis great - it was quite a big scorer, actually -
0:25:08 > 0:25:11for Ivan Lendl, 34 points.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Thanks very much, indeed, Richard. So, at the end of our second round,
0:25:14 > 0:25:18I'm afraid the pair heading home are David and Rebecca.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Not that high a score, and two good answers,
0:25:21 > 0:25:23but, yes, that was just a...
0:25:23 > 0:25:26That was a big score on the first pass for you, there, Rebecca.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Anyway, see you next time. We'll look forward to that,
0:25:28 > 0:25:30but meantime, thanks very much playing,
0:25:30 > 0:25:31- David and Rebecca.- Thank you.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35But for Claire and William, and Keith and Bernie,
0:25:35 > 0:25:38it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45Congratulations, Claire and William, Keith and Bernie,
0:25:45 > 0:25:48you're now one step closer to the final and a chance to
0:25:48 > 0:25:50play for our jackpot, which currently stands...
0:25:50 > 0:25:51at £1,000.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55Well, Claire and William, what a change.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Oh... We... I mean, we've had correct answer after correct answer
0:25:58 > 0:26:00from you, it's been fantastic.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02And Keith and Bernie, also, great performance from you.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Only one misstep, which was Israel, but, no,
0:26:05 > 0:26:07I think it's been very good indeed. All in all, very impressive.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13APPLAUSE
0:26:16 > 0:26:19OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:26:22 > 0:26:23Dogs In Films, Richard.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26Yeah, we're going to show you five pictures now of dogs in films.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29We need you to tell us the name of the film, please.
0:26:29 > 0:26:34OK, let's reveal our five dogs, and here they are. We have...
0:26:59 > 0:27:00There we are. Five dogs in films.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Now, Claire and William, you've
0:27:02 > 0:27:03been our low scorers throughout,
0:27:03 > 0:27:04so you will go first.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09- (E is Bolt.- Is it?
0:27:09 > 0:27:11(Yeah. I'm not sure about D,
0:27:11 > 0:27:12(but I know C.
0:27:12 > 0:27:13(C is Marley And Me.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15(Are you definitely sure about E?
0:27:15 > 0:27:16- (Yeah, yeah, yeah.- OK.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18- (Are you sure?- Yeah.- OK.)
0:27:18 > 0:27:22We'll say E, Bolt.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24E, Bolt, say Claire and William. E, Bolt.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26Now, then, Keith and Bernie, it's all over to you.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28- Talk us through the board. - Go on, Bernie.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Erm, I know...
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Well, I think I know a few.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35I think A is The Artist,
0:27:35 > 0:27:37B, Babe,
0:27:37 > 0:27:38C, Marley and me,
0:27:38 > 0:27:40and then D and E,
0:27:40 > 0:27:41I wasn't sure about.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43So I think we're going to
0:27:43 > 0:27:45go for A, The Artist.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47A, The Artist, say Keith and Bernie.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50So, Claire and William went with Bolt. Let's see if that's right,
0:27:50 > 0:27:53and if it is, let's see how many people said that for E.
0:27:56 > 0:27:57It's right.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05Very well done, indeed. 17.
0:28:05 > 0:28:0717 for Bolt.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10Keith and Bernie, meanwhile, have said that A is The Artist.
0:28:10 > 0:28:14Let's see that's right and let's see how many people said The Artist.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19It's right.
0:28:20 > 0:28:23Oh, it's going to be close.
0:28:23 > 0:28:24Oh, it wins. Look at that!
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Very well done, indeed. 13 for The Artist.
0:28:28 > 0:28:29And very well played, Keith and Bernie -
0:28:29 > 0:28:32after one question, you are up one-nil.
0:28:32 > 0:28:33Two very good answers there.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35There's only one on the board better than it.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38Babe is B, big scorer, though -
0:28:38 > 0:28:40would have scored you 69.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43You're right about C, as well, it's Marley And Me,
0:28:43 > 0:28:45and that would have scored 45,
0:28:45 > 0:28:47and the best answer, you'll be unsurprised.
0:28:47 > 0:28:52is D, and it's Owen Wilson again, actually, but voicing Marmaduke...
0:28:52 > 0:28:54and that would have scored you 6 points.
0:28:54 > 0:28:55Well done if you said that at home.
0:28:55 > 0:28:56Thanks very much, indeed.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59OK, here comes your second question, Claire and William.
0:28:59 > 0:29:00They get to answer it first,
0:29:00 > 0:29:03you have to win to stay in the game, so best of luck.
0:29:03 > 0:29:04It concerns...
0:29:07 > 0:29:10- Defunct Olympic Sports, Richard. - Yeah, we're going to show you
0:29:10 > 0:29:12the names now of five former Olympic sports.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14We've removed alternate letters from each of them.
0:29:14 > 0:29:19- Can you fill in the gaps?- OK, let's reveal our five ex-Olympic sports,
0:29:19 > 0:29:20and here they are...
0:29:34 > 0:29:36I'll read those one last time.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47Keith and Bernie will go first.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52(The only one I can think of is lacrosse.)
0:29:52 > 0:29:55I think the only one that we can...
0:29:55 > 0:29:58springs to mind, is the bottom one,
0:29:58 > 0:30:00- lacrosse.- Lacrosse.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02Lacrosse, say Keith and Bernie.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05Now, Claire and William, the board's all yours.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10Erm, we're struggling here, but...
0:30:10 > 0:30:12- the third one.- The third one, yeah.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14We'll have to go with that, I think.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16Tug-of-war.
0:30:16 > 0:30:17Tug-of-war, say Claire and William,
0:30:17 > 0:30:19so we have lacrosse versus tug-of-war.
0:30:19 > 0:30:23Keith and Bernie went for lacrosse - let's see how many people said that.
0:30:27 > 0:30:28It's right.
0:30:31 > 0:30:35- 42. - APPLAUSE
0:30:35 > 0:30:3942. Now, Claire and William have gone for tug-of-war.
0:30:39 > 0:30:42Let's see that's right and let's see how many people said that.
0:30:46 > 0:30:47It's right.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52Well done.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54Good answer, 21, tug-of-war.
0:30:55 > 0:30:59Brings you back into the game, and after two questions, it's one-all.
0:30:59 > 0:31:00Yeah, well played.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03Britain won gold, silver and bronze in 1908 in the tug-of-war.
0:31:03 > 0:31:05All of our team was made up of police officers.
0:31:05 > 0:31:09Erm... Now, as so often in this round, some of these things...
0:31:09 > 0:31:11There's very few words in the English language
0:31:11 > 0:31:12that would actually fit them.
0:31:12 > 0:31:14The top one is the best answer of all,
0:31:14 > 0:31:18- and that is... Any idea? You can work out the last word.- Swimming.
0:31:18 > 0:31:21- Swimming. Can you work out the second?- Synchronised is the second.
0:31:21 > 0:31:25- Yup. Solo, absolutely.- Solo? - Solo synchronised swimming.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27That's then... it's not synchronised.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30- 1 point.- That's just solo swimming. - LAUGHTER
0:31:30 > 0:31:32Well, it's synchronised to the music,
0:31:32 > 0:31:35- you see?- Oh, I see, that's true. - Now, this the next one there,
0:31:35 > 0:31:37- you can work at the second word on this one, as well.- Cycling.
0:31:37 > 0:31:39It's cycling. Do you know the first word?
0:31:39 > 0:31:43- Tandem. Yeah, Tandem cycling. - Tandem cycling.
0:31:43 > 0:31:47That would have scored you 5, and the second one from the bottom is...
0:31:47 > 0:31:50- It's got a Q in it. - Croquet.- Croquet, yeah.- Oh...
0:31:50 > 0:31:52And that would have scored 16 points.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54Thank you very much, indeed.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57OK, here comes your third question. This is the decider.
0:31:57 > 0:31:58Whoever wins this goes through
0:31:58 > 0:32:00to the final and plays for that jackpot,
0:32:00 > 0:32:02so best of luck to both pairs. It concerns...
0:32:04 > 0:32:07- The Highway Code, Richard. - Yeah, we're going to give you
0:32:07 > 0:32:10five questions now of the sort you may need to pass your driving test,
0:32:10 > 0:32:12your theory test.
0:32:12 > 0:32:13Can you give us the most obscure answer?
0:32:13 > 0:32:16The team that does, of course, going through to play for that jackpot.
0:32:16 > 0:32:19OK, let's reveal our five questions, and here they come.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38I'll read those all one last time.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58Claire and William go first.
0:32:58 > 0:32:59I'm leaving this one to William,
0:32:59 > 0:33:02- cos I didn't know.- Yeah,
0:33:02 > 0:33:04I think the bottom one is a toucan,
0:33:04 > 0:33:06cos it means two can cross,
0:33:06 > 0:33:08a cyclist and a walker.
0:33:08 > 0:33:11A toucan, say Claire and William. A toucan.
0:33:11 > 0:33:12Now, Keith and Bernie,
0:33:12 > 0:33:15talk us through the rest of the board, if you can.
0:33:15 > 0:33:19The time after car horns is 8pm.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22I think the shape of the "give way" sign is a triangle.
0:33:22 > 0:33:28The speed limit when towing a trailer, I think, is 60mph,
0:33:28 > 0:33:33and an age when an ordinary driver can supervise a learner driver,
0:33:33 > 0:33:35I think, is 21.
0:33:35 > 0:33:36Bernie, are you leaving it to me?
0:33:36 > 0:33:41- Yeah, I'm lost on this one. - I'll go with, erm...
0:33:41 > 0:33:45the shape of a "give way" sign - a triangle.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47OK, triangle, the shape of a "give way" sign.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49Now, then, Claire and William said toucan.
0:33:49 > 0:33:53Let's see if that's right for the crossing. Good answer if it is.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59- It is a toucan.- Well done.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01Never heard of it.
0:34:03 > 0:34:05Very well done, indeed, William.
0:34:08 > 0:34:10Now, Keith and Bernie have said
0:34:10 > 0:34:11the shape of a "give way" sign is a triangle.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14Let see if that's right, and let's see how many people said triangle.
0:34:17 > 0:34:19It's right. It...
0:34:19 > 0:34:21Ooh, that's a high score, there.
0:34:21 > 0:34:25High score, but very, very well done, Claire and William.
0:34:25 > 0:34:28- William, particularly. All memories of Guyana...- Lost.
0:34:28 > 0:34:30..can be wiped clean, now.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33After three questions, you are through to the next round.
0:34:33 > 0:34:35- Very well done.- Yeah, very well played, indeed, there.
0:34:35 > 0:34:37Keith, you knew a few of these other ones.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40You're right about the speed limit - it's 60.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44Would have been better than triangle, but would have still scored you 26.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47You're right about the age, as well, it's 21.
0:34:47 > 0:34:48That would have scored you 61.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51Now, it's the top one that would have seen you in the final -
0:34:51 > 0:34:54the time after which passwords cannot be used, but it's not 8pm,
0:34:54 > 0:34:57it's 11:30. 11:30 PM.
0:34:57 > 0:35:00See all the car horn beeping you've been missing out on over the years?
0:35:00 > 0:35:01Yeah, eh?
0:35:01 > 0:35:04- We'll go on a party this weekend. - Yeah. I was going to say,
0:35:04 > 0:35:06Wigan is going to be crazy this weekend
0:35:06 > 0:35:08with Keith just riding up and down at 11:18,
0:35:08 > 0:35:10going, "Honk, honk."
0:35:10 > 0:35:132 points if you'd said that. Would have been a terrific answer.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16Thanks. The pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:35:16 > 0:35:17I'm afraid, it's Keith and Bernie.
0:35:17 > 0:35:18But it's great news for us
0:35:18 > 0:35:22cos we get to see you again next time. We'll look forward to that,
0:35:22 > 0:35:25but Keith and Bernie, thanks for playing, lovely contestants.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27- APPLAUSE - Well done, all the best.- Well done.
0:35:27 > 0:35:31But for Claire and William, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36Congratulations, Claire and William.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38You've fought off all the competition
0:35:38 > 0:35:40and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,
0:35:48 > 0:35:52and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,000.
0:35:52 > 0:35:56Well, very, very well done, indeed. We've chucked lots at you. We had...
0:35:56 > 0:36:00We had Eurovision to start with, then we had History's Losers,
0:36:00 > 0:36:03then we had Dogs On Film, then we had Defunct Olympic Sports,
0:36:03 > 0:36:05and then we had the Highway Code,
0:36:05 > 0:36:08and here you are, still standing strong, at the end of it all.
0:36:08 > 0:36:11Well, as always, you get to choose your category from the four
0:36:11 > 0:36:14we put up on the board. Let's see what's up there for you today.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17We've got...
0:36:25 > 0:36:26Wow.
0:36:26 > 0:36:30- Wow, indeed. Erm...- Yeah, the top three aren't good for us.
0:36:30 > 0:36:32The top three, I don't think we can consider those.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35And I know the popular bit of Shakespeare
0:36:35 > 0:36:36but not too well, at all.
0:36:36 > 0:36:40I think it's going to have to be the 1997 General Election.
0:36:40 > 0:36:43OK, the 1997 General Election, it is. Richard.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46OK, we've got one Tory question, one Lib Dem, and one Labour, for you.
0:36:46 > 0:36:47We're looking for...
0:36:47 > 0:36:51Any Conservative female MP who was elected in the 1997 election.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53They might have been elected before, as well,
0:36:53 > 0:36:55but as long as they won a seat at the '97 election.
0:36:55 > 0:36:58We're looking for any Lib Dem who was elected in '97,
0:36:58 > 0:37:01and was also elected in 2010, so someone who has been around
0:37:01 > 0:37:06a while, or we're looking for any Labour MPs who were elected with
0:37:06 > 0:37:08a majority of over 20,000 votes or more in that election.
0:37:08 > 0:37:12So, Conservative female MPs, Lib Dems who were voted in,
0:37:12 > 0:37:14and were subsequently voted in in 2010, as well,
0:37:14 > 0:37:18or a Labour MPs with a majority of 20,000 votes or more.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20- Very, very best of luck. - Thank you very much, indeed.
0:37:20 > 0:37:22Now, as always, you've got up to one minute
0:37:22 > 0:37:24to come up with three answers,
0:37:24 > 0:37:26and all you need to win that jackpot is for just
0:37:26 > 0:37:28one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:28 > 0:37:29Are you ready?
0:37:29 > 0:37:30OK, let's put 60 seconds up
0:37:30 > 0:37:31on the clock. There they are.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33Your time starts now.
0:37:33 > 0:37:37- So...- Well, Labour MPs, I know...
0:37:39 > 0:37:40I know the two Eagles,
0:37:40 > 0:37:43but I don't know if they got a majority to 20,000 votes...
0:37:43 > 0:37:44Angela Eagle and Maria Eagle.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46Might as well go for something like that.
0:37:46 > 0:37:48Who are the Lib Dems that are in now?
0:37:48 > 0:37:50- Think of the obvious ones. - I mean, Stephen Twigg was the one
0:37:50 > 0:37:52that booted out Michael Portillo, wasn't he?
0:37:52 > 0:37:54But I wouldn't have thought he'd have got...
0:37:54 > 0:37:56Oh, yeah, Conservative females...
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Conservative? Oh, gosh.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Erm, Conservative females...
0:38:03 > 0:38:06OK...I think we'll go for those two Labour ones you said.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09Yeah, I don't think they would have got that much of a majority, though.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11- No bigger ones, then?- Erm...
0:38:11 > 0:38:14Lib Dems, I'm not good on at all.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16Only the obvious ones, like Vince...
0:38:16 > 0:38:19I suppose, I mean, people like... Oh, it could be any Labour...
0:38:19 > 0:38:22Like Robin Cook maybe might have got a majority.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23Ten seconds left.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26- Robin Cook? We'll go for him and the two Eagles.- Yeah, OK. OK.
0:38:29 > 0:38:30OK, you're happy?
0:38:30 > 0:38:32Well, your time is now up.
0:38:32 > 0:38:35Let's hear your three answers.
0:38:35 > 0:38:36They're all going to come from
0:38:36 > 0:38:40the bottom one, the Labour MPs with a majority of 20,000 votes or more.
0:38:40 > 0:38:44There were the two, I think, Blair's babes, there were Angela Eagle...
0:38:44 > 0:38:47- Angela Eagle?- ..and Maria Eagle.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49Maria Eagle.
0:38:49 > 0:38:50- Robin Cook.- And Robin Cook.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52And Robin Cook. Of those three,
0:38:52 > 0:38:54which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:54 > 0:38:57- Maria?- I don't know, probably Robin Cook, cos
0:38:57 > 0:39:00I don't think the other two would have had that much of a majority.
0:39:00 > 0:39:03OK, Robin Cook goes last. Least likely to be pointless?
0:39:03 > 0:39:05- Maria?- Maria Eagle.- Maria Eagle.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08OK, well, let's put those of on the board in that order, then,
0:39:08 > 0:39:10and here they are... We've got...
0:39:14 > 0:39:16Well, very, very best of luck.
0:39:16 > 0:39:20In all three cases, we were looking for Labour MPs elected with
0:39:20 > 0:39:23a majority of 20,000 or more. Your first answer was Maria Eagle.
0:39:23 > 0:39:25Only one of these has to be pointless
0:39:25 > 0:39:27for you to win that jackpot.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30£1,000 - what would you do with that, Claire, if you won it?
0:39:30 > 0:39:32I think it would be taken up with...
0:39:32 > 0:39:34William, and Christopher, my other son,
0:39:34 > 0:39:37would probably soon spent that, I think. Perhaps they'd let us...
0:39:37 > 0:39:40- A nice meal, perhaps. - Yeah, got to have a family meal.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42A meal, and then the rest goes to the boys.
0:39:42 > 0:39:43That's very decent of you.
0:39:43 > 0:39:45William, what about you?
0:39:45 > 0:39:46The last summer before...
0:39:46 > 0:39:49I've got a last summer off, really, so I want to go to festivals.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51I might go to Bulgaria with friends, on holiday,
0:39:51 > 0:39:54- so it would help with that. - Very good, indeed. Best of luck.
0:39:54 > 0:39:56Let's hope one of these answers wins that jackpot for you.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58Your first answer was Maria Eagle.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Let's see if it's right, then let's see if it's pointless.
0:40:00 > 0:40:03If it's both those things, you leave here with £1,000.
0:40:03 > 0:40:05How many people said Maria Eagle?
0:40:10 > 0:40:12No, bad luck.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15Not Maria Eagle. Anyway, you put her first for a reason.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17- You weren't sure about that one. - Not at all.
0:40:17 > 0:40:20Your next answer was Angela Eagle. Let's see if that's right.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22If it's pointless, it will win you £1,000.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24How many people said Angela Eagle?
0:40:29 > 0:40:31No, bad luck.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33I'm afraid, another incorrect answer.
0:40:33 > 0:40:34We now move on to slightly surer ground.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37You've gone with Robin Cook as your third and final answer -
0:40:37 > 0:40:41the one you that was probably most likely to be pointless.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44Let's find out, for £1,000, how many people said Robin Cook.
0:40:44 > 0:40:45Is it pointless?
0:40:50 > 0:40:52- No, it's not. Oh, I'm sorry.- Ah...
0:40:52 > 0:40:54APPLAUSE
0:40:54 > 0:40:56A tough category there.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59- It was tough.- I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that all-important
0:40:59 > 0:41:02pointless answer, so you don't win today's jackpot of £1,000.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04That will roll over on to the next show,
0:41:04 > 0:41:06but we've enjoyed having you on the show - both shows.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08Great performance, particularly this time,
0:41:08 > 0:41:11and you get to take home a Pointless trophy, so there you are.
0:41:11 > 0:41:13- Well done.- That's what we came for. - Thank you.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16APPLAUSE
0:41:16 > 0:41:19You've played so well, it's been terrific having you here.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22I think you probably chose the right category, and stuff...
0:41:22 > 0:41:25There's all different ways of just losing out on the jackpot.
0:41:25 > 0:41:26We've had people losing out on the jackpot
0:41:26 > 0:41:28by getting one letter wrong in a name,
0:41:28 > 0:41:30or getting one word from any name.
0:41:30 > 0:41:32You know, things come down to 1 point,
0:41:32 > 0:41:35but this is the first time I've seen... Angela Eagle was...
0:41:35 > 0:41:40Angela Eagle was elected at that election with a majority of 19,000.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43- Ah, I knew she'd done well but... - Goodness me.
0:41:43 > 0:41:46Cos she was in the news a lot at the time.
0:41:46 > 0:41:48And Maria Eagle, 18,000, which is also pretty close,
0:41:48 > 0:41:52and Robin Cook, 11,000. All of them were... All of them were elected.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55Lots and lots of pointless answers in the different categories, here.
0:41:55 > 0:41:57Let's start with the Conservatives, with the female MPs.
0:41:57 > 0:41:59Some big hitters here...
0:42:02 > 0:42:03Oh, Virginia Bottomley?
0:42:03 > 0:42:06There is Ann Winterton. You could have had Anne Macintosh,
0:42:06 > 0:42:09Eleanor Laing, Julie Kirkbride, Marion Roe and Teresa Gorman.
0:42:09 > 0:42:12So, lots of names that kind of, if you cast your mind back...
0:42:12 > 0:42:14Some of them, of course, are still around.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16Let's look at the Lib Dems. The long-serving Lib Dems...
0:42:20 > 0:42:23Simon Hughes, as well, so, some proper big names there.
0:42:23 > 0:42:24And Labour...
0:42:24 > 0:42:26Some big names here as well,
0:42:26 > 0:42:29you've got Bernie Grant, who was the MP for Tottenham...
0:42:32 > 0:42:36In fact, everybody apart from Blair, Prescott, Yvette Cooper,
0:42:36 > 0:42:38Dennis Skinner and Mo Mowlam, everyone else was pointless.
0:42:38 > 0:42:41There's Frank Field, there's all sorts of people on the list,
0:42:41 > 0:42:44None, unfortunately, that you mentioned in your 60 seconds.
0:42:44 > 0:42:46Thanks, Richard. Unfortunately,
0:42:46 > 0:42:48we have to say goodbye to you, Claire and William.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51Been fantastic having you on the show. Thanks for playing.
0:42:51 > 0:42:55- Great being here.- Thank you.- Great performance, Claire and William. - APPLAUSE
0:42:55 > 0:42:57Well, sadly, Claire and William didn't win our jackpot today,
0:42:57 > 0:42:59which means it rolls over onto the next show,
0:42:59 > 0:43:02when we will be playing for £2,000.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06Join us then, to see if someone can win it.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:43:10 > 0:43:13APPLAUSE
