0:00:14 > 0:00:16APPLAUSE
0:00:21 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong,
0:00:24 > 0:00:26and a very warm welcome to Pointless, the show where
0:00:26 > 0:00:29obvious answers mean nothing and obscure answers mean everything.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38- And couple number one. - Hello, I'm Jane.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41This is my daughter Becca and we're from Walden in Essex.
0:00:41 > 0:00:42Couple number two.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hi, I'm Bernie and this is my dad Keith,
0:00:44 > 0:00:47and I've come from London and my dad's come down from Wigan.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Couple number three.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Hello, I'm Rebecca and this is my brother David.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53He lives in West London and I live in Surrey.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56- And finally, couple number four. - Hi, I'm John.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59This is my friend Nick and we're from Billericay in Essex.
0:00:59 > 0:01:00And these are today's contestants.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03Thanks very much, all of you.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06We'll find out more about you throughout the show as it
0:01:06 > 0:01:09goes along. So, that just leaves on more person for me to introduce.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Often called the John Wayne of television co-hosts
0:01:11 > 0:01:15because he's strong, towering, tough and walks real funny,
0:01:15 > 0:01:17it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Hiya. Hello, everybody.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23- Afternoon. Good afternoon to you.- And to you!
0:01:23 > 0:01:26- Lots of familiar faces on this show. - Oh, I know! Look at that.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28Three pairs returning
0:01:28 > 0:01:31and they're also standing in order of how well they did as well.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34You've got Keith and Bernie, standing proud on podium two,
0:01:34 > 0:01:35got all the way to the Head-to-Head.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Did very well, didn't they? We got David and Rebecca.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41Didn't do too badly at all, got through to Round 2. There they are.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44And then, on the podium of shame at the end,
0:01:44 > 0:01:48we have Nick and John, who let themselves down in the best
0:01:48 > 0:01:50possible way in a round about Eurovision.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52So, we didn't see as much of them last time.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56- I suspect they've got some reserves in store.- Let's hope they have.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58And we've got one new pair, that's Jane and Becca,
0:01:58 > 0:02:00and they're on podium one. That seems a bit harsh.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03- We'll make it easy for them. - Oh, do you think?
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Will we? I don't know.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Let me take a look at the first question. No! We will not.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11- We will not.- Well, thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Now, Claire and William didn't win the Jackpot last time,
0:02:13 > 0:02:17so we add another £1,000 to that. So, today's Jackpot starts off at...
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Right. If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31So, remember, it's the pair with the highest score at the end
0:02:31 > 0:02:35of each round that gets eliminated, so keep your scores nice and low.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Every point might count. So, best of luck.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Our first category for Round 1 today is...
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Footballers. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:02:45 > 0:02:46who's going to go second?
0:02:46 > 0:02:50And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54OK. And the question concerns...
0:02:58 > 0:03:00England goal-scorers. Richard.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02We're about to show you a list of five footballers,
0:03:02 > 0:03:04all very well known England goal-scorers.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07We're looking for the name of any club that any of these people played
0:03:07 > 0:03:10for during their senior professional careers, please, including on loan.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12So, any club that any of these five people
0:03:12 > 0:03:14played for during their senior professional careers.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17- Very best of luck. - OK, as Richard just said,
0:03:17 > 0:03:19we'll put five footballers' names up on the board.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21They will stay up for the whole round.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23We just need to know, as Richard says,
0:03:23 > 0:03:26any club for which these players have played.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29And here are those England goal-scorers. They are...
0:03:35 > 0:03:37I'll read those one last time.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Becca. Very warm welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.
0:03:45 > 0:03:46What do you do, Becca?
0:03:46 > 0:03:51I am a PR and marketing manager for a PR and marketing company.
0:03:51 > 0:03:52SHE LAUGHS
0:03:52 > 0:03:54So, you're doing the PR for the PR and marketing company?
0:03:54 > 0:03:57That is brilliant. So, what kind of PR is it?
0:03:57 > 0:04:01Well, basically, rank people's businesses on search engines
0:04:01 > 0:04:04and do their blogs and newsletters and all sorts of things like that.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07And what do you do when you're not doing that?
0:04:07 > 0:04:09I love to run, I love the gym.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- I also like upcycling furniture as well.- OK.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15So what, you're going around junk shops
0:04:15 > 0:04:18- and finding things you can take home.- Well, yeah, eBay.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21I do a lot of stuff on eBay and then buy it off really cheap
0:04:21 > 0:04:23and then, like, make it look really shabby chic.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25And then sell it or keep it for yourself?
0:04:25 > 0:04:26Well, I try to sell it but...
0:04:26 > 0:04:27SHE LAUGHS
0:04:27 > 0:04:29- Keep it for yourself. - Keep it for myself.
0:04:29 > 0:04:34- Now, Becca, how's this as a round? Are you happy with this?- No. No.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Erm... I'm really not into football.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40My dad and my brother watch a lot of it,
0:04:40 > 0:04:44so I may have absorbed something.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46- West Ham United. - West Ham, says Becca.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47Let's see if that's right,
0:04:47 > 0:04:50let's see how many of our 100 people said West Ham.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56That's either a brilliant guess or actually very clever.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59But there it is, West Ham going down through the 30s. 36.
0:04:59 > 0:05:00Very good answer.
0:05:00 > 0:05:01APPLAUSE
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Yeah, two of them played at West Ham.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09You've got Geoff Hurst and Frank Lampard. Well played.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Thanks very much indeed. Good start to the show. Now, Bernie.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16- Welcome back.- Thank you. - So, yes, Head-to-Head last time.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- You did very, very well.- Mm. - Now, remind us what you do, Bernie.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23- I'm an environmental consultant for an engineering firm.- That's right.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26What things do you like to get up to when you're not working?
0:05:26 > 0:05:29I really love travelling, so I try and travel as much as I can.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32- It's more difficult now with less holidays, but...- Yeah.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- Do you still sort do big, long trips?- Yeah.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39I try and save my holidays up to do big three weekers.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Any places you haven't yet visited that are on your list?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45I've not been to the continent of Africa yet,
0:05:45 > 0:05:46so that's the next one on the list.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Very good. OK now, Bernie. Football.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55Yeah, not my strongest subject, so I'm going to have to play it, well,
0:05:55 > 0:05:57I think relatively safe, and hope my dad can get a low
0:05:57 > 0:06:00score on this one, and say Manchester United.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03Manchester United, says Bernie. Let's see if that's right,
0:06:03 > 0:06:05let's see how many people said Manchester United.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09It's right.
0:06:10 > 0:06:1375. Always a high score, Manchester United.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15But it's a lot better than 100.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Yeah, Bobby Charlton played 754 games for Manchester United.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24That's nearly as many as we've done episodes of Pointless, isn't it?
0:06:24 > 0:06:29- Not quite as many. You know, this is episode 799.- I know.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32- When we started, you were 12. - That's right.
0:06:32 > 0:06:33LAUGHTER
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- I was 11 but I nearly turning 12. We were in the same year.- Yeah.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40- Essentially. And we both wore shorts throughout.- Yeah, we did.- Yeah.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43(IN HIGH VOICE) And I said, "Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, welcome..."
0:06:43 > 0:06:46And I said... (IN HIGH, CRACKING VOICE) And by country, meaning a
0:06:46 > 0:06:49sovereign state that's a member of the UN in its own right.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52(NORMAL VOICE) That used to be my catchphrase, didn't it?
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- Ah, those were the days. - Those were the days.- Amazing.- Ah.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59- Now we're old, old, old men.- Old.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01David, welcome back.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Now, Round 2 last time. Remind us what you do, David.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- Fascinating career you have. - I work in classical music.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11I'm an associate artist manager for a number of different performers.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13And are they all soloists, your performers?
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Three of them are soloists and one is a conductor.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19- All rather renowned, I imagine.- Yes.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22They perform all around the world, and we look after all
0:07:22 > 0:07:25kinds of aspects of their careers.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Excellent. Do you ever get summoned out?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Does one of your maestros ever say, "It's no good here",
0:07:30 > 0:07:35- and suddenly you've got to fly out to Rio?- Not exactly that.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40I think the closest thing that happens is when I might be
0:07:40 > 0:07:42working with somebody who steps in for somebody else.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46I might find myself going to that performance at short notice.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49- Very good. OK, so, David, what are you going to go for?- OK.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52I'm ashamed to say that I really don't know
0:07:52 > 0:07:56much about this at all, so I'm going to take a bit of a guess,
0:07:56 > 0:08:01and my wife is a Tottenham Hotspur fan,
0:08:01 > 0:08:03so I'm going to say Tottenham Hotspur.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Tottenham Hotspur, says David. Let's see if it's right.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Let's see how many people said Tottenham Hotspur.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14Oh! I'm sorry, David. I'm afraid Spurs not on that list.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15Scores you 100 points.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18It may not be the last 100 points of the round, of course.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19Yeah, sorry, David.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22At least it's entirely your wife's fault, not yours.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24- That's some consolation. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:08:24 > 0:08:29- Now, Nick, welcome back.- Thank you. - Round 1 it was last time.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Eurovision saw you off.
0:08:32 > 0:08:33So, remind us what you do, Nick.
0:08:33 > 0:08:38I'm a retired retailer. Spent most of my life in shops.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39What are your interests?
0:08:39 > 0:08:45Well, I'm a big rugby supporter for Saracens, I go to all their matches.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48I enjoy playing tennis. My two sons play tennis as well.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- Are your sons taller than you? - Creeping up.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55- Over six foot, both of them. - Who has the best serve?- Er, me.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59I would imagine so, yes. Very good indeed. Now, football.
0:08:59 > 0:09:04All the obvious ones are gone, but both my boys support Arsenal,
0:09:04 > 0:09:06- so I'm going to say Arsenal. - Arsenal, says Nick.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Let's see if that's right,
0:09:08 > 0:09:10let's see how many of our 100 people said Arsenal.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14It's right.
0:09:15 > 0:09:1836 is our lowest score so far.
0:09:18 > 0:09:19You passed it.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22Arsenal down to 25. Very well done indeed, Nick.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25Lowest score of the round so far.
0:09:25 > 0:09:26Well played, Nick.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28David Platt played for Arsenal for a number of seasons.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Thank you. We're halfway through the round.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Let's take a look at those scores and see where we are.
0:09:33 > 0:09:3725, the best score so far. Nick and John there. Then up to 36.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Well done, Becca. Becca and Jane looking pretty strong as well.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42Then up to 75, Bernie and Keith. Not bad.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Then 100, I'm sorry to say, David and Rebecca.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48So, Rebecca, see if you can find a really nice low scoring answer
0:09:48 > 0:09:51and maybe that'll keep you in the game. Best of luck.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52Coming back down the line.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:09:57 > 0:10:01- OK, so, John, welcome back to Pointless.- Thank you.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03We're looking for any club for which any of these England
0:10:03 > 0:10:07goal-scorers has played. And remind us about yourself, John.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Well, I'm retired,
0:10:09 > 0:10:12- but as I said, before I had a picture framing business.- Mm-hmm.
0:10:12 > 0:10:17Got lots of other interests, like golf and walking and cooking
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- and watching my grandchildren play football.- So, John, listen.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24There you are, you're on 25. Great answer from Nick in the first pass.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26You can get away with scoring 74 or less
0:10:26 > 0:10:29and still get through to the next round.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32I'm very torn here, because I have a feeling that one of those is
0:10:32 > 0:10:33a pointless answer,
0:10:33 > 0:10:35- or can be a pointless answer.- Go on.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38- But I'm tempted to go safe. - No, no, no, no, no!
0:10:38 > 0:10:41- Rebecca and David, they're so far ahead of you.- I know, I know.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Now, now, you're only here once. It's got to be a risk.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Preston North End.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Preston North End, says John. Preston North End.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Here's your red line. It's quite nice and high.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Let's see if you can get below that with Preston North End.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56How many people said it? Is it right?
0:10:57 > 0:10:59Well done, John!
0:11:00 > 0:11:05It all paid off, look at that, down it goes. Still going down.
0:11:05 > 0:11:06- 12 it scores you. - APPLAUSE
0:11:07 > 0:11:0937, your total.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11The lowest total of the round, I would say.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Well played, John, and who were you thinking of there?
0:11:14 > 0:11:15Nat Lofthouse.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Not Nat Lofthouse, that's a stroke of luck, it's Bobby Charlton
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- when he left Man United. - Good heavens.- Yeah, yeah.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Went and played and managed Preston North End.
0:11:24 > 0:11:25LAUGHTER
0:11:25 > 0:11:29- Thanks very much indeed. Rebecca, welcome back.- Thank you.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32- And remind us what you do. - I'm a stay at home mum.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34- A stay at home mum.- Yeah.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36And what, assuming you get any time at all,
0:11:36 > 0:11:37what do you like to fill that time with?
0:11:37 > 0:11:40I like to bake and I also write a blog
0:11:40 > 0:11:43- so that takes up quite a lot of time.- What's your blog on?
0:11:43 > 0:11:47- Parenting and lifestyle kind of blog.- Excellent.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Well, you're the high-scorers at the moment.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51What we need from you is a low score.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53- Do you follow football at all?- No.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56- So, this might just be a complete wild stab in the dark.- Yep.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59But look how well it worked for John with Preston North End.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02I just don't know all these obscure teams.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05I'll go back to my Yorkshire roots and say Leeds United.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Leeds United, says Rebecca.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10No red line for you as you're the high-scorers but let's see
0:12:10 > 0:12:13how many people said Leeds United, if it's right.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Oh, I'm sorry, Rebecca.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Not Leeds United, that scores you 100 points,
0:12:20 > 0:12:22takes your total up to 200.
0:12:22 > 0:12:23Sorry, Rebecca.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26And even worse, you just called Preston North End an obscure team.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29They're not going to like that in Preston.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32There's other Lancashire towns they will like it in very much
0:12:32 > 0:12:34but Preston, not so much.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Thanks very much indeed. Now, Keith, welcome back.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40A fantastic performance from you last time right through
0:12:40 > 0:12:41to the head-to-head.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Got to be hoping to go a step further this time, surely?
0:12:44 > 0:12:45Hopefully.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Do you know what, Keith, I think
0:12:47 > 0:12:50if anyone has a pointless answer - that's if there are any
0:12:50 > 0:12:52pointless answers - it's going to be you on this one.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54- I think you're going to have fantastic knowledge.- OK.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58I'm going to go for Bolton Wanderers.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00Bolton Wanderers, says Keith.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02OK, Bolton Wanderers.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Let's see how many of our 100 people said Bolton Wanderers.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10It's right.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Something about Keith's delivery told me it was going to be right.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Down it goes, still going down.
0:13:15 > 0:13:16- 15. Very well done indeed. - APPLAUSE
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Takes your total up to 90.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Well played, Keith, and who were you thinking of there?
0:13:23 > 0:13:27- Nat Lofthouse.- Yeah, that was his one and only club so...
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Preston North End, that is outrageous! No, well played.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34He scored 30 goals in 33 games for England,
0:13:34 > 0:13:36Nat Lofthouse.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38- An incredible career. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42Jane, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here. What do you do, Jane?
0:13:42 > 0:13:46I work in the accounts department for a discount supermarket.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49Very good. How often do you do that, is that full-time?
0:13:49 > 0:13:50Three days a week.
0:13:50 > 0:13:54Three days a week. And what do you like to fill the other days with?
0:13:54 > 0:13:56I run, too, as does Rebecca.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58We fish, my husband and I fish.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02We like to fish in England but also like to deep sea fish abroad.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05- Going back to the Florida Keys this year to deep sea fish there.- OK.
0:14:05 > 0:14:09Well, you are through to the next round which is great news,
0:14:09 > 0:14:11whatever you score.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Would you just be guessing when it comes to this round?
0:14:13 > 0:14:16No, I know a certain answer.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Well, I tell you what, what about, given that
0:14:18 > 0:14:21you're through anyway, you could have a bit of a risk.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Maybe see if there is a pointless answer.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Obviously, if we're going to try and go pointless, I should try
0:14:26 > 0:14:29and think of an obscure team and not offend anyone
0:14:29 > 0:14:33so I was thinking people start out everywhere so how about
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Accrington Stanley.
0:14:35 > 0:14:36Oh, that is offensive.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Sorry, I mean, no, not Accrington Stanley. I mean...
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Wow, you think that's just a starting block, do you?
0:14:43 > 0:14:45- Just a baby step, do you think? - Exactly.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Accrington Stanleys, says Jane, let's see if it's right.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Good answer, it could be. Let's find out.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57Who knows, it could have been a great answer,
0:14:57 > 0:14:58turns out it was incorrect.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Doesn't matter, 136 is your total,
0:15:00 > 0:15:02you're through to the next round.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Absolutely the right thing to do, Jane, and very well done.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06It's nice to see someone having a go.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Actually, though, there are three pointless answers.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12The secret to this one is to know the tail end of Geoff Hurst's career
0:15:12 > 0:15:16during the mid-70s. All three pointless answers were teams he played for.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20You could have had Cape Town City,
0:15:20 > 0:15:23you could have had Cork Celtic or Seattle Sounders in the States.
0:15:23 > 0:15:24Well done if you got any of those.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27You'd have to know your Geoff Hurst trivia to do that.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30You'd also have got 1 point for Telford United for him and
0:15:30 > 0:15:32West Brom would score you 2 and Stoke would have scored you 6.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34There's a few other good obscure answers.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37Frank Lampard had a brief spell at Swansea City
0:15:37 > 0:15:40and that would have scored you 1 point, a great answer.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43David Platt, the best answers, he had quite a long time in Italy.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Bari would have scored you 2, that's the best one.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Crewe Alexandra would have scored you 3.
0:15:48 > 0:15:49Juventus would have scored you 4,
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Sampdoria would have scored you 7. Villa, 17.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54And Bobby Charlton, there's a good obscure answer.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56We've had Man United and we've had Preston North End
0:15:56 > 0:16:00but Waterford United, 3 points for Bobby Charlton.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01Thanks very much, Richard.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03So, at the end of our first round the pair we say goodbye to
0:16:03 > 0:16:07with their high score of 200, I'm afraid it's Rebecca and David.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10One of our three returning pairs. It was Round Two last time
0:16:10 > 0:16:13and I'm afraid we threw football at you and you didn't catch.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17I'm sorry. We have to say goodbye but it's been lovely having you.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19- Thanks for playing. - APPLAUSE
0:16:22 > 0:16:25But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27APPLAUSE
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Well, now we're down to three pairs.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Soon we will be down to two pairs for our head-to-head round.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37Well done, Nick and John, lowest combined score.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41John, Preston North End, slightly sleepwalked into that one but still.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45It was a great answer. Lowest score of the round. And well done, everyone.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47We made it through football.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49So, best of luck to all three pairs,
0:16:49 > 0:16:51our category for Round Two today is...
0:16:54 > 0:16:55Famous people.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:16:58 > 0:17:01and whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06OK. And the question concerns...
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Famous Susans. Richard.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15On each board we're going to give you six clues to famous
0:17:15 > 0:17:17people called Susan or Sue or Susanna.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19You just have to tell us who they are, please,
0:17:19 > 0:17:22- and the most obscure answer will score the fewest points.- Excellent.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25Let's see our first board of Susans. And here they come.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53I'll read those one last time.
0:18:18 > 0:18:24There we are. Becca, six Susans. Take your pick.
0:18:24 > 0:18:28I only know one of the Susans. So I haven't got all that much choice.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31- Only one of the Susans? - Only one of the Susans or Sues.
0:18:31 > 0:18:32Yeah, I only know her.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36So, in which case, given that I've got no option, I'm going to have
0:18:36 > 0:18:41to go with the Scottish singer and I'm going to say Susan Boyle.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Susan Boyle, says Becca.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said Susan Boyle.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52It's right.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54- 65 people knew Susan Boyle. - APPLAUSE
0:18:57 > 0:19:00She came second on Britain's Got Talent, of course, to Diversity.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04But the clip of her audition has been watched over 300 million times
0:19:04 > 0:19:06on YouTube. That is a lot.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10I have to say, at home, if you've got a Susan ratio of one in six,
0:19:10 > 0:19:13it's probably fine but just go and check with your GP.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15LAUGHTER
0:19:15 > 0:19:17That is... That's quite low.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20And it could lead to other complications.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23OK, good, thank you, Richard. Bernie.
0:19:23 > 0:19:24I think I need to go to the doctors
0:19:24 > 0:19:29cos I'm suffering from the one to six Susie ratio.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Yeah, I don't... I'm not sure of any of the others but I'm going to
0:19:33 > 0:19:38go for the singer and bass guitar player and say Susie Q.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Can you expand on that?
0:19:40 > 0:19:44I'm just going to have to guess the second name and say Susie...
0:19:46 > 0:19:47..Quinn?
0:19:47 > 0:19:52Susie Quinn. Susie Quinn, says Bernie.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Let's see if Susie Quinn is right, let's see how many people said it.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01Oh, I'm sorry, Bernie, I'm afraid not Susie Quinn.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03That scores you 100 points.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06Not Susie Quinn, I'll give the correct answer at the end of the pass.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09Thanks very much indeed. Now, then, Nick, we come to you.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12The board's all yours if you want to talk us through it, feel free.
0:20:12 > 0:20:17I wish I could. Desert Island Discs I think was Sue Lawley.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23Unfortunately, the singer was Suzi Quatro.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25And I think that's going to be a lower score
0:20:25 > 0:20:28so I'm going to stick with Suzi Quatro for the singer
0:20:28 > 0:20:30and bass guitar player who reached number one.
0:20:30 > 0:20:31Suzi Quatro, says Nick.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said Suzi Quatro.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39It's right.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44- 43, not a bad answer, either. 43. - APPLAUSE
0:20:47 > 0:20:48Not a bad score.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Funnily enough, Sue Lawley would be a much better score
0:20:50 > 0:20:54because it's a right answer and would have scored 19 points.
0:20:54 > 0:20:55So, very well done if you said that.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00Now, let's start at the top. This is the best answer up there,
0:21:00 > 0:21:04the Hungarian born chess grandmaster is Susan Polgar.
0:21:04 > 0:21:05Would have scored you 1 point.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09- Began appearing as Gloria Price, very famous actress...- Sue Johnston.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Sue Johnston, yeah. Would have scored you 6.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16And played Michelle Fowler, now a director, Susan Tully.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19- Would have scored you 24 points. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22We're halfway through the round. Let's look at those scores.
0:21:22 > 0:21:2443, the best score of the pass, Nick, well done,
0:21:24 > 0:21:25Nick and John looking strong.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Then up to 65, Becca and Jane there.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30And then up to 100 where we find Bernie and Keith.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35So, Keith, let's hope there's a Susan on that board for you, Keith.
0:21:35 > 0:21:36- Hopefully.- Nice low-scoring one.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38We're coming back down the line now,
0:21:38 > 0:21:40can the second players step up to the podium.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46OK, let's put six more Susans on the board and here they come.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10I'll read those one last time.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32There we are.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Remember, we're looking for these famous women called Susan.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37John.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40- Mm.- 56 or less definitely gets you into the next round.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43I can see the faces, but it's remembering the names.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45Um...
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Peggy Ollerenshaw in Hi-de-Hi!,
0:22:47 > 0:22:50- Su Pollard.- Su Pollard, says John.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52Su Pollard. Here's your red line.
0:22:52 > 0:22:53If you get below that with Su Pollard,
0:22:53 > 0:22:56you are in the head-to-head. Let's see how you do.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00It's right.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04- Yay!- Good enough.
0:23:04 > 0:23:05There we are, 33.
0:23:06 > 0:23:10- 76, your total. Well done. - Well played, John.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12She also, of course, spent 14 years
0:23:12 > 0:23:14at Bolton Wanderers, Su Pollard, so. LAUGHTER
0:23:15 > 0:23:18Thanks very much, indeed, Richard.
0:23:18 > 0:23:19Keith.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23I know one but I think that's going to be quite high,
0:23:23 > 0:23:26so I think it's time to gamble.
0:23:26 > 0:23:31And the only actress I can remember from the '70s called Susan
0:23:31 > 0:23:33is Susan George.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36So I'm going to go played Prue Sorensen
0:23:36 > 0:23:39- in Bouquet Of Barbed Wire, Susan George.- Susan George.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41No red line for you, Keith, as you are the high scorers,
0:23:41 > 0:23:45but let's see how many people said Susan George. Is it right?
0:23:46 > 0:23:49Oh, I'm sorry, Keith. Not Susan George.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52Scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 200. Sorry.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Sorry, Keith, but you had to have a crack.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57You couldn't do anything else, so nice try.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Jane, good news?
0:24:01 > 0:24:03- Yeah.- Again! - Doesn't matter what you score,
0:24:03 > 0:24:05you are through to the head-to-head.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08Talk us through the board if you can. See if there are any answers
0:24:08 > 0:24:12- you know.- OK. My Susans are quite healthy.- That's good.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Certainly, Adrian Mole, Sue Townsend.
0:24:15 > 0:24:16Um...
0:24:16 > 0:24:19And the Great British Bakeoff Sue,
0:24:19 > 0:24:21I know, but her surname escapes me.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24I really want to go with the Bouquet Of Barbed Wire
0:24:24 > 0:24:27because I can vaguely remember something from my past, too.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30And I thought it was Susan Penhaligon,
0:24:30 > 0:24:32but I'm too scared.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34- Oh, no, we're through!- You're through.- Susan Penhaligon.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Susan Penhaligon, says Jane.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- Not scared any more. - Don't be scared.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Also don't be scared because your Susan count is very, very strong.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45- Yeah, I've got a rich Susan count. - No red line for you.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48You're already through, but let's see how many of our 100 people
0:24:48 > 0:24:49said Susan Penhaligon.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54It's right.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56That's a good answer, Jane. Down it goes.
0:24:56 > 0:24:57Let's see how far it can go.
0:24:59 > 0:25:00APPLAUSE
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Oh, down to one! What a superb answer.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07Takes your total up to 66, the lowest score of the round.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11That's a terrific answer, Jane. Very well played. Yes, Susan Penhaligon.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Now, co-hosted Crimewatch with Nick Ross?
0:25:13 > 0:25:15- Is it Sue Cook?- It's a low scorer, actually, so Sue Cook, yeah.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Seven points. The member of the band Hear'Say
0:25:18 > 0:25:20- who won Dancing On Ice was Suzanne Shaw.- Yeah.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23Scored 26. Yeah, you're absolutely right with Sue Townsend.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26Much bigger scorer than Susan Penhaligon, though, 47.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29- And the Great British Bakeoff is... - Sue Perkins.- ..Sue Perkins.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31That would have scored you 22. I think a lot of people,
0:25:31 > 0:25:35they know Mel and Sue but it's the surnames sometimes escape you, don't they?
0:25:35 > 0:25:37Thanks very much, indeed. So at the end of our second round,
0:25:37 > 0:25:40the pair who are heading home with their high score of 200,
0:25:40 > 0:25:42the next of our returning pairs, I'm afraid, Keith and Bernie.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44It's been a pleasure having you on the show.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Thank you for playing. Keith and Bernie, wonderful contestants.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49- APPLAUSE - Thank you.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Congratulations, Nick and John, Jane and Becca.
0:26:01 > 0:26:02You are now one step closer to the final
0:26:02 > 0:26:04and a chance of play for our jackpot,
0:26:04 > 0:26:07which currently stands at £2,000. There it is.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09APPLAUSE
0:26:09 > 0:26:12Well done, Nick and John. That's more like it.
0:26:12 > 0:26:13Round one last time,
0:26:13 > 0:26:16and here you are in the head-to-head as our low scorers.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18And Jane, very good.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22That Susan Penhaligon there, I think we saw what calibre
0:26:22 > 0:26:24of player we have in front of us there.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26Very, very strong, indeed. This is going to be close,
0:26:26 > 0:26:29something tells me. Best of luck to both pairs.
0:26:29 > 0:26:30Let's play our head-to-head.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32APPLAUSE
0:26:35 > 0:26:38OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:26:43 > 0:26:46Yeah, we're going to show you five pictures now of actors who
0:26:46 > 0:26:49played Dr Watson. I just need you to name the most obscure.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52OK, let's reveal our five Doctors Watson, and here they are.
0:26:52 > 0:26:53We have got...
0:27:16 > 0:27:19There we are. Five actors who played Dr Watson.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Nick and John, you've been our low scorers, so you will go first.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25Feel free to confer.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27..I know is Martin Freeman, which is C.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- Mm.- The others would just be a complete guess.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36We're going to go for C. Martin Freeman.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38C, Martin Freeman, say Nick and John. C, Martin Freeman.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42Now, Jane and Becca, all those other Watsons are yours.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46- um...well, we know Jude Law. - Yeah, we know Jude Law, B,
0:27:46 > 0:27:48and we know E is Lucy Liu.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51- And you can't get D's name out. - I can't pull it out.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54We were trying to put it out the bag, but...
0:27:54 > 0:27:56- That was B and E.- Lucy Liu?
0:27:56 > 0:27:58- Lucy Liu.- Lucy Liu.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00For E, Lucy Liu.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03So, we have Martin Freeman, we have Lucy Liu.
0:28:03 > 0:28:04Nick and John said Martin Freeman.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07Let's see how many people said that for C.
0:28:11 > 0:28:12It's right.
0:28:16 > 0:28:1842.
0:28:18 > 0:28:19APPLAUSE
0:28:22 > 0:28:25Jane and Becca have said Lucy Liu for E.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:28:27 > 0:28:28let's see how many people said that.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32It's right.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37Very well done. It wins you the point, Lucy Liu, there.
0:28:37 > 0:28:39- APPLAUSE - 32.- Yeah!
0:28:39 > 0:28:42Which means, Jane and Becca, after one question, you are up 1-0.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45Yeah, good answer. She plays Dr Joan Watson
0:28:45 > 0:28:47in the US TV series, Elementary,
0:28:47 > 0:28:49with Jonny Lee Miller as Sherlock Holmes in that.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52A, some people at home will know. It's the best answer up there.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54Nigel Bruce.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57Would have scored you one point, so very well done if you said that.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59Jude Law would have scored you too many points
0:28:59 > 0:29:00so you did well to avoid him.
0:29:00 > 0:29:04Wouldn't have even beaten Martin Freeman. 45 points for Jude Law.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07And D, the name you're looking for was Robert Duvall.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10Yeah. I knew he was American, I just couldn't remember.
0:29:10 > 0:29:11That would have scored you 13.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14Look at all those Watsons. I mean...
0:29:14 > 0:29:16haven't they got HOLMES to go to?
0:29:16 > 0:29:18LAUGHTER AND GROANS
0:29:18 > 0:29:22- I've been waiting all round to get that one out.- That's very good.
0:29:22 > 0:29:25Thank you very much. OK, here comes your second question, Nick and John.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28You have to win this one to stay in the game so best of luck.
0:29:28 > 0:29:29It concerns...
0:29:35 > 0:29:38- Richard.- Yep, we're going to show you five initials now of people have
0:29:38 > 0:29:39been Secretary General of the UN.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41You just need to tell us who they are, please.
0:29:41 > 0:29:45OK, let's reveal our five initials and here they come.
0:29:45 > 0:29:46We have got...
0:29:53 > 0:29:55I'll read those one last time.
0:30:01 > 0:30:04Jane and Becca will go first this time.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Um...I think the only one I know is...
0:30:06 > 0:30:09Oh, sorry, we're conferring. The only one I know is Kofi Annan.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12We're going to have to go for it.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15Right, we only know one and...um...
0:30:15 > 0:30:16- Kofi Annan.- Yeah, Kofi Annan,
0:30:16 > 0:30:19and we think it's quite an obvious one as well, but...
0:30:19 > 0:30:21- OK, well, Kofi Annan, say Jane... - Our ratio's all up the wall!
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Yeah, your Kofi ratio.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27- Should have been Susan.- Jane and Becca are going for Kofi Annan.
0:30:27 > 0:30:31Now, Nick and John, the board's all yours.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34Well, we know some of them. KW is Kurt Waldheim.
0:30:34 > 0:30:39BKM is Ban Ki-moon. I'm not sure if I've pronounced that properly.
0:30:39 > 0:30:43But we're going to go for BBG, which is Boutros Boutros-Ghali.
0:30:43 > 0:30:44Boutros Boutros-Ghali,
0:30:44 > 0:30:47So there's Kofi Annan and there's Boutros Boutros-Ghali.
0:30:47 > 0:30:48Jane and Becca said Kofi Annan.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51Let's see if that's right and then see how many people said it.
0:30:58 > 0:31:0031.
0:31:00 > 0:31:01APPLAUSE
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Nick and John have gone for Boutros Boutros-Ghali.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:31:12 > 0:31:13It's right.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17And it wins you the point. Very well done indeed.
0:31:17 > 0:31:21- That's what you needed. 11. - APPLAUSE
0:31:21 > 0:31:25So, very well done. After two questions you are drawn, one each.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28Yeah, you should never ever turn down an opportunity in life to say
0:31:28 > 0:31:30Boutros Boutros-Ghali, should you?
0:31:30 > 0:31:32Now, KW, you're right, was Kurt Waldheim,
0:31:32 > 0:31:33would've been a better scorer,
0:31:33 > 0:31:36but it meant you wouldn't have said Boutros Boutros-Ghali,
0:31:36 > 0:31:39so three points for that. BK-m, you're right, it's Ban Ki-moon,
0:31:39 > 0:31:42would've scored 28, and the best answer on the board,
0:31:42 > 0:31:46Javier Perez de Cuellar, and he would've scored you 1.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49Thanks very much indeed, Richard. So, here comes your third question.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52This is the decider. Whoever wins this goes through to the final
0:31:52 > 0:31:56and plays for that jackpot. Best of luck to both pairs. It concerns...
0:31:59 > 0:32:00The Colour Purple. Richard.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02Yep, we're going to show you five clues now
0:32:02 > 0:32:04to things relating to the colour purple.
0:32:04 > 0:32:07You just have to give us the most obscure answer, please.
0:32:07 > 0:32:09- Very best of luck to both teams. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:32:09 > 0:32:12Let's reveal our five clues and here they are.
0:32:35 > 0:32:37I'll read those all one last time.
0:32:56 > 0:33:00There we are. Five clues to facts about the colour purple.
0:33:00 > 0:33:01Nick and John will go first.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05Prince and Purple Rain...
0:33:05 > 0:33:08Right. We're going for the American musician whose band had
0:33:08 > 0:33:13a hit with Purple Haze and we're going to say Jimi Hendrix.
0:33:13 > 0:33:15Jimi Hendrix say Nick and John. Jimi Hendrix.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18Now, Jane and Becca, the board is all yours. Talk us through it.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21The top one is Prince.
0:33:21 > 0:33:22The semiprecious purple quartz,
0:33:22 > 0:33:25I'm really tempted with tanzanite, to be honest.
0:33:25 > 0:33:26Is that not amethyst though?
0:33:26 > 0:33:29- Because that could be one or the other.- Yeah, that's true.
0:33:29 > 0:33:33The author is Alice someone but Alice... Alice Rice or something.
0:33:33 > 0:33:34I can't think of her surname.
0:33:34 > 0:33:38- And we think Roald Dahl is Violet Beauregarde.- I think we're going to have to go with that.
0:33:38 > 0:33:41- We're going to have to go with that. - You're going to go with Violet Beauregarde.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43So, we have Jimi Hendrix and Violet Beauregarde.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Nick and John went with Jimi Hendrix.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said Jimi Hendrix.
0:33:51 > 0:33:52It's right.
0:33:56 > 0:33:57- 38. - APPLAUSE
0:33:59 > 0:34:0038 for Jimi Hendrix.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03Jane and Becca have gone for Violet Beauregarde.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said that.
0:34:08 > 0:34:09It's right.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15And it wins you the point. Very well done indeed.
0:34:15 > 0:34:1829 for Violet Beauregarde, which means after three questions,
0:34:18 > 0:34:22Jane and Becca are through to the final, 2-1. Very well played.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25Very well played again. Yes, the top one, you're right, was Prince,
0:34:25 > 0:34:28a very big scorer though, would've scored you 71.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31The semiprecious purple quartz, Becca was right, it's amethyst,
0:34:31 > 0:34:36would've scored you 47, and the author novel is Alice someone.
0:34:36 > 0:34:41- It's Alice Walker.- Walker, yeah. - And that would've scored you 20.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43It would've been the best answer on the board.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Thank you very much indeed. OK, so the pair leaving us
0:34:45 > 0:34:47at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:34:47 > 0:34:50I'm so sorry, Nick and John. A great performance across the show today.
0:34:50 > 0:34:55Our low scorers throughout, but you just came up against Jane and Becca.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59- No-one has ever said that before! - Yeah.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02Lucy Liu and Violet Beauregarde did for you, I'm afraid,
0:35:02 > 0:35:05but it's been lovely having you on the show.
0:35:05 > 0:35:06Thank you so much for playing. Nick and John.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09APPLAUSE
0:35:09 > 0:35:12But for Jane and Becca it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:17 > 0:35:21Congratulations, Jane and Becca. You've seen off all the competition
0:35:21 > 0:35:23and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:31 > 0:35:34and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £2,000.
0:35:34 > 0:35:37- There it is. - APPLAUSE
0:35:37 > 0:35:39Just brilliant. A brilliant performance.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42We knew you were going to be good in Round One when you said
0:35:42 > 0:35:44Accrington Stanley just because you took that sort of punt.
0:35:44 > 0:35:48You didn't need to, but if you're going to guess at a football team, you might as well pick a good one.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51That was a very well informed random guess, I would say.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54It didn't matter if it was wrong because you then took a brilliant
0:35:54 > 0:35:56stab in the dark in Round Two with Susan Penhaligon.
0:35:56 > 0:35:59That was a great answer as well and then through to the head-to-head.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02You saw off all our three returning pairs
0:36:02 > 0:36:06and here you are in the final round. A fantastic performance.
0:36:06 > 0:36:07It would really round it off superbly
0:36:07 > 0:36:09if you carried off that jackpot as well.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12What do you want to see come up in this last round?
0:36:12 > 0:36:18Probably films, or maybe actors or actresses, or anything like that.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21- We do like that, don't we?- Yeah, we like films.- Maybe authors.
0:36:21 > 0:36:24Well, as ever, you get to choose your category from the four
0:36:24 > 0:36:27we put up on the board. Let's hope there's something up there
0:36:27 > 0:36:29you like the look of. Today's selection looks like this.
0:36:37 > 0:36:42OK, we're definitely going to go for alliterative actors and actresses.
0:36:42 > 0:36:44- OK. There we are. Richard. - OK. Good luck.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47Three things to choose from here. We're looking for any feature film
0:36:47 > 0:36:49made for cinema release up to April 2014,
0:36:49 > 0:36:51starring any of the following...
0:36:57 > 0:37:00So, any feature film made for cinema release starring any of those three
0:37:00 > 0:37:03according to IMDb. As always, no TV films, short films, documentaries,
0:37:03 > 0:37:06anything like that, but voice performances do count.
0:37:06 > 0:37:07Very best of luck.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10Now, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:37:10 > 0:37:14and all you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those answers
0:37:14 > 0:37:16- to be pointless. Are you ready? - Sure.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18OK. Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.
0:37:18 > 0:37:19Your time starts now.
0:37:19 > 0:37:23- Who's Amy Adams?- She's in Pitch Perfect, but I wouldn't...- No.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26- Holly Hunter.- OK. Miss Firecracker or something like that.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28She was with Richard Dreyfuss in a film where she was on the ice
0:37:28 > 0:37:32and he died at the end. I think it was called Once More Round.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35- One More Time Around. - One More Time Around.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37Miss Firecracker, definitely.
0:37:37 > 0:37:40She was also the voice in The Incredibles as well.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43I think she was the wife. I don't know if there's a second one.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46Maybe we could put it on the board. Apart from that...
0:37:46 > 0:37:49- Once More Around.- Once More Around. - One More Time Around.
0:37:49 > 0:37:53One More time... What is it? Is it MISS Firecracker?
0:37:53 > 0:37:56- Miss Firecracker.- For sure?- When she does the flick flacks.- Yeah.
0:37:56 > 0:38:01- Erm...- The Incredibles 2.- Is that... - I don't know if there's two.
0:38:01 > 0:38:04- Just stick with The Incredibles. - And One More Time Around.
0:38:04 > 0:38:06- One More Time Around. - One More Time Around.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09- Are you happy with those three? - Yeah.- Are you sure?
0:38:09 > 0:38:13- There's a bit more time.- Oh! Nick Nolte...
0:38:13 > 0:38:17Nick Nolte, erm...Prince Of Tides.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19If you think that's better than The Incredibles...
0:38:19 > 0:38:22OK. That's your time up. Let's have your three answers
0:38:22 > 0:38:25and if you can see which category you're answering in,
0:38:25 > 0:38:26- that would be marvellous.- OK.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29- Shall we do all three for Holly Hunter?- Definitely.- OK.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31- All three Holly Hunter. - You say them.
0:38:31 > 0:38:34- There's Miss Firecracker. - Miss Firecracker.
0:38:34 > 0:38:36- The Incredibles. - The Incredibles.
0:38:36 > 0:38:40- And One More Time Around. - And One More Time Around.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43Over those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:43 > 0:38:45- Miss Firecracker. - Miss Firecracker goes last.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47- Least likely to be pointless? - I'm not sure I've said
0:38:47 > 0:38:50- One More Time Around right, to be honest.- Maybe that one.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Shall we put that one first then? One More Time Around.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55And then The Incredibles goes in the middle. OK. Let's put those answers
0:38:55 > 0:38:58up on the board in that order then. And here they are. We've got...
0:39:04 > 0:39:06Well, very, very best of luck.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09It would be the perfect end to this round, as I say, for you to
0:39:09 > 0:39:11walk off with that jackpot. Three good answers on the board.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13Let's hope one of those wins it for you.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16What would you do with it, 2,000 quid, Jane?
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Erm...my half, I would...
0:39:18 > 0:39:22We're fishing in Florida this November,
0:39:22 > 0:39:27I'd charter my own boat with that for a good long day's fishing.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30- Very good. Becca.- I owe you some money for my car...
0:39:30 > 0:39:32So it's more than £1,000!
0:39:32 > 0:39:35I'd like to think I'd pay it back,
0:39:35 > 0:39:37but I'd probably go on holiday as well.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40OK. Well, very, very best of luck. Your first answer,
0:39:40 > 0:39:43- in fact all three of your answers were Holly Hunter films.- Yes.
0:39:43 > 0:39:45Your first answer was One More Time Around.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47You weren't sure if you got the wording of this right,
0:39:47 > 0:39:49but we'll discover shortly if it is correct.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52If it is correct and if it is pointless, you will win £2,000.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55Let's see how many people said One More Time Around.
0:39:59 > 0:40:01Oh!
0:40:01 > 0:40:04I'm afraid an incorrect answer there. We'll discover what
0:40:04 > 0:40:05was wrong with that in a moment or two.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07So, not a pointless answer, obviously.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09Only two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11Your second answer was The Incredibles.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13Again, a Holly Hunter film we were looking for.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16Let's find out if it's right. Let's find out if it's pointless.
0:40:16 > 0:40:19For £2,000, how many people said The Incredibles?
0:40:23 > 0:40:25It's right.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27Well, your first answer, One More Time Around, turned out to be
0:40:27 > 0:40:30incorrect. The Incredibles though, absolutely correct.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33Down it goes, through the teens, into single figures,
0:40:33 > 0:40:36still going down, down it goes, still going down to 2.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39- That is a fantastic answer. - APPLAUSE
0:40:39 > 0:40:42- Well done, Becca. - It's a wonderful score too.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44- But it's not pointless.- No.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46Everything is now riding on your third
0:40:46 > 0:40:49and final answer, which is Miss Firecracker.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51You had no hesitation putting this as your last one,
0:40:51 > 0:40:55you thought this was your best shot at a pointless answer.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58It would be fantastic if this is pointless. Let's find out.
0:40:58 > 0:40:59We're looking for Holly Hunter films.
0:40:59 > 0:41:01How many people said Miss Firecracker?
0:41:05 > 0:41:07It's right.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10So, your first answer, One More Time Around, turned out to be incorrect.
0:41:10 > 0:41:13Your second answer, The Incredibles, took us down to 2.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16If Miss Firecracker takes us down to zero, you leave with £2,000.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18Down it goes, still going down, down it goes.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20- Well done! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:41:20 > 0:41:23Very well done indeed!
0:41:23 > 0:41:27Fantastic! That's wonderful.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30Brilliant.
0:41:33 > 0:41:34Well, congratulations.
0:41:34 > 0:41:36Miss Firecracker was a pointless answer,
0:41:36 > 0:41:39which means you go home with that jackpot of £2,000.
0:41:39 > 0:41:42Very well done indeed, Jane and Becca.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:41:44 > 0:41:46- How about that?- That's brilliant. Very well played.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49You know what? You came on podium one, you were the only new pair,
0:41:49 > 0:41:51you saw off all three returning pairs, you come here,
0:41:51 > 0:41:54you even put your things in the right order, which is how we like it
0:41:54 > 0:41:56and give us a great ending to the show.
0:41:56 > 0:42:00The Richard Dreyfuss film you were thinking of with Holly Hunter was just called Once Around.
0:42:00 > 0:42:03That would've been a pointless answer, so it's another terrific answer.
0:42:03 > 0:42:05There's some big films here in all the different categories.
0:42:05 > 0:42:08Let's take a look at Amy Adams first.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11Amazingly, American Hustle, her role in that was a pointless answer.
0:42:11 > 0:42:14Catch Me If You Can. You could've had Charlie Wilson's War.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Night At The Museum 2. Very well done if you said any of those.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20The only ones for her that did score points were Enchanted,
0:42:20 > 0:42:22The Muppets, Man Of Steel, The Fighter and The Master.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24Everything else was pointless.
0:42:24 > 0:42:26Holly Hunter films - A Life Less Ordinary, Always.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28Broadcast News was a pointless answer,
0:42:28 > 0:42:31and Raising Arizona also a pointless answer.
0:42:31 > 0:42:35And let's take a look at Nick Nolte. Again, some big films here...
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Very well done if you said any of those at home
0:42:41 > 0:42:44and congratulations in the studio. Well done. A fabulous win.
0:42:44 > 0:42:46Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49And thanks once again to our winning players Jane and Becca
0:42:49 > 0:42:52who go away with today's jackpot of £2,000. Very well done.
0:42:52 > 0:42:53APPLAUSE
0:42:55 > 0:42:59So, join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
