0:00:20 > 0:00:23- APPLAUSE - Thank you very much indeed.

0:00:23 > 0:00:25Hello, I am Alexander Armstrong.

0:00:25 > 0:00:27A very warm welcome to Pointless, the show where

0:00:27 > 0:00:30obvious answers mean nothing and obscure answers mean everything.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32Let's meet today's players.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38And couple number one.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Hi, I'm Lizzie. This is my dad, Simon.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43He is a retired police officer. I am a doctor, currently working

0:00:43 > 0:00:46as an artist. We are both from Stockton, but I live in Norwich.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48- Couple number two. - Hiya, I'm Rebecca.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50And this is my best friend, Vickie.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52I'm from Liverpool and she is from London.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54And we're both masters students at Queen Mary University.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57- Couple number three.- I am Jill. This is my colleague, Stephen.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59I am from Kingston, he is from Epsom.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01And we both work for Diabetes UK.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03And finally, couple number four.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Hello, I'm Steve. This is my wife, Gail. We are both from Perth.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08Gail is a learning assistant and I'm a press photographer.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10And these are today's contestants.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13APPLAUSE

0:01:13 > 0:01:15Thanks very much.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17We'll find out more about you throughout the show as it

0:01:17 > 0:01:20goes along. That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23He has got more revelations than 1,000 Bibles.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25It is my Pointless friend, it's Richard.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28APPLAUSE Hiya. Hi, everybody. Good afternoon.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32- How are you this afternoon? - I am very well, thank you.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34- A lovely show, the last one. - Wasn't that nice?

0:01:34 > 0:01:36Really, really enjoyed it.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39And Simon and Lizzie played their part in it as well.

0:01:39 > 0:01:40Really terrific show.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Simon and Lizzie, they came up against Brian

0:01:42 > 0:01:43and Mags in the head-to-head.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46Brian and Mags beat you, I think, by 2 points.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48I have some good news and bad news, I'm afraid.

0:01:48 > 0:01:51- The bad news is Brian and Mags won the jackpot.- Oh!

0:01:51 > 0:01:54- Good on them.- But the good news is,

0:01:54 > 0:01:56they promised to spend some of the money on buying a puppy.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59So... LAUGHTER

0:01:59 > 0:02:02Who can begrudge them that? Who can begrudge them that?

0:02:02 > 0:02:05Lovely to have three new pairs with us today.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08It should be an absolute cracker. The first round...

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Yeah, I don't know. I don't know.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12Some people are going to love it. Some people...

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Some people are going to love it, some people might go wrong,

0:02:15 > 0:02:16some people are going to fluke it.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19That is what I will say on the first round. It's flukeable.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21- It's flukeable.- Round One.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23That is good news, Lizzie. It is flukeable.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26- Here's hoping.- Looking forward to it. Thank you very much, Richard.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Now, Brian and Mags, as you've gathered,

0:02:28 > 0:02:31won the jackpot last time, so today's jackpot starts off

0:02:31 > 0:02:33back at £1,000. There it is.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Right, if everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44Now, just remember, the pair with the highest

0:02:44 > 0:02:46score at the end of each round will be eliminated.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49Also remember, there is to be no conferring before we get

0:02:49 > 0:02:50to the head-to-head round.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Our first category for Round One today is...

0:02:56 > 0:02:59It is flukeable, the man says. It is flukeable.

0:02:59 > 0:03:00Can you all decide in your pairs

0:03:00 > 0:03:03who's going first, who's going second?

0:03:03 > 0:03:06And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:03:11 > 0:03:16We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:03:21 > 0:03:24Nations that have had a player who has scored a Premier League goal.

0:03:24 > 0:03:28- Richard.- We are looking for the name of any international football nation

0:03:28 > 0:03:30who've had a player affiliated to them who has ever scored

0:03:30 > 0:03:31in the English Premier League,

0:03:31 > 0:03:34from the beginning of the Premier League through to

0:03:34 > 0:03:37October 2014. Any nation that plays international football who've

0:03:37 > 0:03:41had a player who's scored in the Premier League, according to Opta.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43It is a sports statistics service.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46Worth noting - for once by country we don't mean a sovereign state

0:03:46 > 0:03:47that is a UN member in its own right.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50They are nations who play international football, so

0:03:50 > 0:03:53there will be some nations there that we don't normally count as countries.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55- Yeah, that's nice. That's fun.- Yeah, you see?

0:03:55 > 0:03:57Yeah. What about that!

0:03:57 > 0:03:58There we go. Thank you, Richard.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Now, Simon, I think you are going to be all right on this anyway.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04But it is quite fun as a global question anyhow.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06Now, last time, Simon, tell us what happened.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08Ice Cream Gate.

0:04:08 > 0:04:13Ice Cream Gate, as they are already evidently calling it

0:04:13 > 0:04:14in Stockton-upon-Tees.

0:04:14 > 0:04:19We went for probably the least favourite ice cream,

0:04:19 > 0:04:21but unfortunately, it was the easier anagram.

0:04:21 > 0:04:24You see, that is the trouble. That comes into play.

0:04:24 > 0:04:25Pistachio, of course.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29Perhaps not as well known as raspberry ripple, for example.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33So, Simon, what do you think you are going to go for?

0:04:33 > 0:04:35There must be some pointless answers out there.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38Right. I'm going to gamble on a Stoke City player.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40Now, I know he scored in the World Cup,

0:04:40 > 0:04:44but I am not 100% positive about the team.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47And I'm going to go with Peter Odemwingie

0:04:47 > 0:04:52- and gamble on Nigeria.- Nigeria.

0:04:52 > 0:04:56Nigeria, says Simon. OK, the gamble is on that particular player.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59There might be lots of other more obvious players from Nigeria,

0:04:59 > 0:05:02but let's see. Nigeria is what Simon is going to for nonetheless.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05Let's see how many of our 100 people said Nigeria.

0:05:07 > 0:05:08It's right.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17APPLAUSE

0:05:17 > 0:05:21- 6 for Nigeria, Simon. Good start to the round.- Good start, Simon.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Yeah, a rich history of Nigerian scorers

0:05:23 > 0:05:24in the English Premier League.

0:05:24 > 0:05:29The very first one - Efan Ekoku, who scored for Norwich City in 1993.

0:05:29 > 0:05:34Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, Rebecca, a warm welcome to you.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36So you are at University of London.

0:05:36 > 0:05:40- Yeah.- You're reading maths? - Maths, yeah.- What year are you in?

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- My last year. - Have you had your exams yet?

0:05:42 > 0:05:44I've had five, I've got another three to go.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46- Hang on, five plus three. - How many is that?

0:05:46 > 0:05:49LAUGHTER

0:05:49 > 0:05:52- Yeah, I've got eight. - Yeah, you passed! You passed!

0:05:52 > 0:05:54Yes, a starred first.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57What else have you been doing apart from maths? What has been

0:05:57 > 0:05:59keeping you happy?

0:05:59 > 0:06:02I love all the theatre in London. I am a big musical fan.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05- Really? What is your favourite musical?- Wicked.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07How many times have you been to it?

0:06:07 > 0:06:09People always see musicals lots of times.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12- How many times have you seen that? - Quite a lot.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Is it obsessive or quite worrying?

0:06:14 > 0:06:18- Quite worrying.- How many? Can I guess?- Um...

0:06:18 > 0:06:21- Have you been more than 30 times? - Yes. Yeah.

0:06:21 > 0:06:22- AUDIENCE:- Oooh!

0:06:22 > 0:06:25- Have you been more than 40 times? - Yeah.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30I think that is going out of quite worrying. This is pathological.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33- Over 50 times?- Yeah, 57.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36- Wow.- Wow!

0:06:36 > 0:06:38- Wow, you LOVE musicals, don't you? - Yeah.- Good.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41- Do you get free tickets after you have been that many times?- No.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43- Do they not remember you in the box office?- No.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46Yeah, they do, they pull the shutters down the minute

0:06:46 > 0:06:47they see you coming.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50That is good. Now, Rebecca, what are you going to go for?

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Looking for any...

0:06:52 > 0:06:53I mean, it is sort of a geographical

0:06:53 > 0:06:55question as much as anything, really.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Yeah. I am not really a football fan.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00You are a fan of the world.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02I suppose so.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04I'm going to go with Argentina.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06Argentina, says Rebecca.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Let's see how many of our 100 people said Argentina.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14It is right.

0:07:14 > 0:07:176 is our only score so far.

0:07:17 > 0:07:1929 for Argentina.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22APPLAUSE

0:07:22 > 0:07:24Yeah, again, lots of famous Argentinians.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27Sergio Aguero probably the most famous Argentinian scorer.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30Horacio Carbonari for Derby was the first Argentinian to

0:07:30 > 0:07:32score in the Premier League.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35Very good. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:07:35 > 0:07:39Now, Jill, welcome to Pointless. What do you do, Jill?

0:07:39 > 0:07:41I am a regional manager for Diabetes UK.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43And what does that entail?

0:07:43 > 0:07:47I manage a team but I also influence the NHS to do better services

0:07:47 > 0:07:48for people with diabetes.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Oh, I see. So it's not so much fundraising.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53That is actually making sure that people are...

0:07:53 > 0:07:55I go out and talk to the clinical commissioning groups

0:07:55 > 0:07:57and the diabetes specialist teams

0:07:57 > 0:07:59and try and encourage them to do better.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02- Do you enjoy it?- Yeah, most of the time. It is really good.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04And it is a lot of variety. I work with volunteers as well.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06So it is really enjoyable.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08So a really good network of relationships you must

0:08:08 > 0:08:10have around your region.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13Now, Jill, how are we feeling about football in general?

0:08:13 > 0:08:17Well, I'm going to say a country that I think is good at football.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20I don't really know if they have got anyone in the Premier League.

0:08:20 > 0:08:21So I'm going to say Cameroon.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23I knew you were going to say that!

0:08:23 > 0:08:27I just knew. It appeared in my head. Anyway, Cameroon, says Jill.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30Let's see if it is right. Let's see how many people said it.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34It is right. A good answer, Jill.

0:08:34 > 0:08:3629 is our highest score at this point.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38I think you pass that. Yes, you do.

0:08:38 > 0:08:406 is our low. You pass that as well!

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Jill,

0:08:42 > 0:08:44I salute you, our new low score.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47Yeah, as I say, it has been going a long time, the Premier League,

0:08:47 > 0:08:50and it really is a league of nations. It has been for a very long time.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53Eminently flukeable, this round, I would say.

0:08:53 > 0:08:57Now, Gail, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here from Perth.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00- And you are teaching assistant?- Yes.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02What sort of teaching do you assist with?

0:09:02 > 0:09:04Well, I actually work in Perth Prison.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06So I work in the learning centre there.

0:09:06 > 0:09:10And I give information about courses and enrolments.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12Well, good for you.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14And when you are not doing that, Gail, what keeps you going?

0:09:14 > 0:09:18We like to travel and like going on long walks.

0:09:18 > 0:09:22- That's a kind of travelling.- Music. Comedy shows.- Very good.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Have you travelled to any football-playing countries?

0:09:25 > 0:09:26Do you follow football?

0:09:26 > 0:09:28Not really, no. But I am sure I have.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30I had a couple of ideas,

0:09:30 > 0:09:32but I think they are going to be quite high-scorers.

0:09:32 > 0:09:36So I'm going to take a risk. I'm going to say Chile.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Chile, says Gail. Sounds good to me.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Let's see how many of our 100 people said Chile.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Let's see if it is right, of course.

0:09:44 > 0:09:45It's right.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51Well, 29 is our high score, you pass it.

0:09:51 > 0:09:535 is our low score. You don't quite make it

0:09:53 > 0:09:55there, but that is not bad at all.

0:09:56 > 0:09:578 for Chile.

0:09:58 > 0:10:01Well played, Gail. Yeah, again, a number of Chilean goal scorers.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04Javier Margas for West Ham was the first.

0:10:04 > 0:10:05Thanks very much, Richard.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08Well, we are halfway through the round. Let's look at those scores.

0:10:08 > 0:10:105, Jill. Very well done indeed.

0:10:10 > 0:10:135, the best score. Cameroon, see?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15The best answer given so far.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17Then we travel up to 6,

0:10:17 > 0:10:18where we find Simon and Lizzie.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20And then up to 8, where we find Gail and Steve.

0:10:20 > 0:10:21And then 29, Rebecca.

0:10:21 > 0:10:25I mean, really, it seems terribly unfair. You and Vickie

0:10:25 > 0:10:26find yourselves on 29.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28So, Vickie, you know, what we need from you

0:10:28 > 0:10:30is a really amazing low score.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32And maybe that will keep you in the game.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34We'll come back down the line.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:10:39 > 0:10:42OK, so, Steve, remember, we are looking for any nation that

0:10:42 > 0:10:45has had a player score a goal in the Premier League.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47Steve, welcome.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51- Now, you are a news photographer. - Yes, that's right.- See, that's fun.

0:10:51 > 0:10:54- That is a good old-fashioned job, isn't it?- Yeah, it's fun.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57You know, it is like any job, it has got good days and bad days.

0:10:57 > 0:10:58Yeah.

0:10:58 > 0:11:02- And does someone call you up and say you've got to get somewhere?- Yeah.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04Or do you take your own initiative quite often?

0:11:04 > 0:11:08No, usually I get about a two-second head start on the job.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11I usually get a diary. I think I've planned out my day

0:11:11 > 0:11:14and then a phone call will drop in and spoil it.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16What is the most exciting scene you have been on?

0:11:16 > 0:11:20In terms of events, I quite enjoy covering music events.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22- Sporting events.- Good stuff.

0:11:22 > 0:11:26Steve, you are on 8. Our high-scorers at the moment

0:11:26 > 0:11:27are Rebecca and Vickie on 29.

0:11:27 > 0:11:32So if you can score 20 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36- Hopefully, I am playing relatively safe.- Don't play too safe.

0:11:36 > 0:11:37Well, it is a slight gamble.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41Hopefully, not too much of one. I am going to say South Korea.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43South Korea, says Steve. South of Korea.

0:11:43 > 0:11:47A little murmur of appreciation from our audience. They like that.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49Now, there is your red line.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51Get below that was South Korea, Steve, you are definitely

0:11:51 > 0:11:55in the next round. How many of our 100 people said South Korea?

0:11:56 > 0:11:58It's right.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04You are through to the next round.

0:12:04 > 0:12:05It scores 3!

0:12:05 > 0:12:07Lowest score of the round so far, Steve.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09Very well done indeed. Takes your total up to 11.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11Well played.

0:12:11 > 0:12:16The first South Korean to score was Park Ji-sung for Man United in 2006.

0:12:16 > 0:12:20- Thanks very much, Richard. Stephen. - Hello.- A very warm welcome to you.

0:12:20 > 0:12:24- Here from Epsom.- Yes. - And you also work for Diabetes UK.

0:12:24 > 0:12:28Yes, but I work in fundraising. I am a fundraising administrator.

0:12:28 > 0:12:31I see. OK, how many events do you look after every year?

0:12:31 > 0:12:34- I work with more of the community. - I see.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36- I help support the local fundraisers.- I see.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38By providing the admin in the background.

0:12:38 > 0:12:39I see what you are saying.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42And what do you do when you're not doing that, Stephen?

0:12:42 > 0:12:45Watching comedy films, cooking programmes.

0:12:45 > 0:12:46I love a cookery programme.

0:12:46 > 0:12:49- Do you cook yourself? - Yes. When I can, yeah.

0:12:49 > 0:12:51Have you ever watched something on the cookery programme

0:12:51 > 0:12:54- and actually downloaded a recipe from it and done it?- Yeah.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57- See, that is impressive.- Tried.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59Tried! Very good indeed.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02OK, now then, Stephen, you are on 5.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04Amazing low score from Jill in the first pass.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06If you can score 23 or less...

0:13:06 > 0:13:08I know, it's trying to live up to that.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11There must be some pointless answers, surely.

0:13:11 > 0:13:12There must be one or two.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16I'm going to try and take a risk because I have had an inkling.

0:13:16 > 0:13:17I am going to try Costa Rica.

0:13:17 > 0:13:20Costa Rica. Costa Rica, there is your red line.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23If you can get below that, Stephen, you are through to the next round.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25Let's see how many people said Costa Rica.

0:13:27 > 0:13:28It's right.

0:13:32 > 0:13:33Through you go...

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Look at that, 1!

0:13:36 > 0:13:37You have beaten Jill.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39Takes your total up to 6.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41Very, very well done indeed.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43- The lowest total of the round, I suspect.- Great answer, Stephen.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46Yeah, the first Costa Rican scorer was Paulo Wanchope.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48He went on to score 50 goals in the Premier League.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51Of course, more impressively, Bryan Ruiz of Fulham.

0:13:51 > 0:13:53LAUGHTER

0:13:53 > 0:13:56Still with Fulham. Not in the Premier League any more.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58- AUDIENCE:- Aw!

0:13:58 > 0:13:59I know. I know.

0:13:59 > 0:14:02- Aaaw! Sadder than that.- Yeah.

0:14:02 > 0:14:07Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Vickie. Anything could happen.

0:14:07 > 0:14:11Anything could happen. Lizzie looks all right but a bit nervous.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14I am just going to pass that on to you. That is what I am seeing

0:14:14 > 0:14:17from here. So she may or may not have a brilliant answer,

0:14:17 > 0:14:20but we definitely need a brilliant answer from you.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23Vickie, you are also a maths student?

0:14:23 > 0:14:26- Yep.- Just about to graduate? - Mm-hm. Yeah.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Have you made plans for the future?

0:14:28 > 0:14:31I am going to go full-time at my part-time job at the minute,

0:14:31 > 0:14:34- just doing accounts there and stuff.- Where is that?

0:14:34 > 0:14:37It is an estate agent's near NE16.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Very good. So you have got a job lined up there.

0:14:39 > 0:14:42So, Vickie, on 29,

0:14:42 > 0:14:45you really ideally want a pointless answer at this stage.

0:14:45 > 0:14:47- I like football.- Yeah.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49But my geography is shocking.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52Um... I'm going to have to go a bit risky.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55There are some definite ones that I know, but I am going to stick

0:14:55 > 0:14:58with the South American thing and I am going to go Venezuela.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01Venezuela, says Vickie. Sounds good to me. Venezuela.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04No red line for you, Vickie, as you are the high-scorers,

0:15:04 > 0:15:07but let's see how far down the column you get with Venezuela.

0:15:09 > 0:15:10It's right.

0:15:18 > 0:15:22That is pretty much exactly what we needed from you.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24- Takes your total up to 30. - Great answer, Vickie.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27In fact, the first Venezuelan to score in the Premier League

0:15:27 > 0:15:29wasn't until 2014.

0:15:29 > 0:15:33And that was Fernando Amorebieta, who played for...?

0:15:33 > 0:15:35Fulham, there we go.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38- It's all gone Fulham, suddenly. - Yeah, there we go.- Yeah.

0:15:38 > 0:15:43Thank you, Richard. Thank you. Now, Lizzie. Now then, Lizzie.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45What a performance we had last time.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48Straight through to the head-to-head.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50- We might not be doing it again. - We've got to be hoping to get

0:15:50 > 0:15:53to the head-to-head and beyond this time.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55- Yeah.- Remind us what you do, Lizzie.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57I am a qualified doctor, but I am currently on a break.

0:15:57 > 0:16:01- I have just had a daughter and I am working as an artist.- There we are.

0:16:01 > 0:16:05- Now, you are on 6. Ideally, 23 or less.- OK.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10- I'm taking a bit of a gamble.- Yes.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13- I am going to say Uruguay. - Uruguay.- Yeah.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16This South American thing, I think, is just going to run and run.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18It is fantastic. Uruguay, sounds good to me.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21So far, South America has scored very low. There is your red line.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Let's see if you can get below that with Uruguay.

0:16:26 > 0:16:27It's right.

0:16:31 > 0:16:32You are through.

0:16:32 > 0:16:349 for Uruguay.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36APPLAUSE

0:16:36 > 0:16:39Very well done indeed. Takes your total up to 15.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Sees you comfortably through.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43Yeah, Diego Forlan, Luis Suarez...

0:16:43 > 0:16:46Adrian Paz was the first one ever for Ipswich Town.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49But, yeah, lots of Uruguayans in the Premier League.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52There is almost 90 answers on this round.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55Lots and lots of answers. Loads of pointless answers as well.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57I'll tell you a country where no-one has ever scored

0:16:57 > 0:16:58a Premier League goal.

0:16:58 > 0:17:02- BOTH:- Central African Republic. - Yeah. Incorrect answer.

0:17:02 > 0:17:06Now, the pointless answers. We will look at a few on the board.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08Angola. Manucho was the first one.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10Antigua and Barbuda - Dexter Blackstock.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13Greg Goodridge scored for QPR, Barbadian.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17Benin. Stephane Sessegnon of Sunderland is from Benin.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20Bermuda - Shaun Goater. "Feed the Goat, he will score."

0:17:20 > 0:17:22Congo - Chris Samba.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25You could've had Democratic Republic of Congo.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28Macedonia - Gjorgji Hristov.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Gabon - that's Daniel Cousin. You also could've had

0:17:30 > 0:17:35Grenada, Guinea, Guyana, Honduras, Iran, Israel, Liberia, Mali,

0:17:35 > 0:17:38Montenegro, Montserrat, St Kitts

0:17:38 > 0:17:41and Nevis, Sierra Leone, Slovakia, Suriname and Zimbabwe.

0:17:41 > 0:17:45They were all pointless answers. Let's take a look at the top three.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47The ones that most of our 100 people said.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54Let's see who beats England.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57France beat England.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59There we go. Thanks very much, Richard.

0:17:59 > 0:18:03So again, in our first round, the pair heading home with their -

0:18:03 > 0:18:04well, not that high - score of 30.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07I'm afraid it is Vickie and Rebecca.

0:18:07 > 0:18:08Nothing wrong with your answers,

0:18:08 > 0:18:11they just scored higher than everyone else's.

0:18:11 > 0:18:12But we will see you again next time.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14We look forward to that.

0:18:14 > 0:18:17In the meantime, thanks much for playing. Vickie and Rebecca.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20APPLAUSE

0:18:20 > 0:18:23But for the remaining three pairs, it is now time for Round Two.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31And now we are down to three pairs. At the end of this round,

0:18:31 > 0:18:33we will have to say goodbye to another pair.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36Well, congratulations, amazing low scores from all of you.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38Single figure scores from each and every one of you.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41But Jill and Stephen, particularly, congratulations to you.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44Amazing total of 6 in that round. Very strong indeed.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Best of luck to all three pairs.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...

0:18:51 > 0:18:54Science. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going first,

0:18:54 > 0:18:55who's going second?

0:18:56 > 0:19:00And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05OK, and the question concerns...

0:19:08 > 0:19:10As in science. Richard.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12We are going to show you six questions on each pass,

0:19:12 > 0:19:15and the answer to each one of them begins with A.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17So 12 in all to have a go at at home. Very best of luck.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19Thanks very much indeed.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22So, we're looking for the scientific terms beginning with A

0:19:22 > 0:19:23described by these clues.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26Here is our first board of six.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28And on it, we have got...

0:19:55 > 0:19:57I'll read those all one last time.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25There we go. Simon, how is your chemistry?

0:20:25 > 0:20:29Well, the only answer I really know on there is the one that is

0:20:29 > 0:20:32probably coursing through my veins at the moment.

0:20:32 > 0:20:36And I am wondering about the flight response at the moment.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39So I am going to have to go for adrenaline.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Adrenaline, says Simon. Let's see if it is right.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:20:45 > 0:20:46It is right.

0:20:50 > 0:20:5161 for adrenaline.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54APPLAUSE

0:20:54 > 0:20:57Yeah, solid answer and a lot better than 100,

0:20:57 > 0:21:00- so perhaps best to go first on this board.- Good.

0:21:00 > 0:21:04Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Jill, Science.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06How are we feeling about this board?

0:21:06 > 0:21:09I was feeling better before he took my only answer.

0:21:09 > 0:21:14Not good. I'm going to have to guess.

0:21:14 > 0:21:18The surname of the French physicist is Ampere.

0:21:18 > 0:21:23Ampere, says Jill. Stands to reason, surely. Let's see if Ampere exists.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25Let's see how many people said Ampere.

0:21:27 > 0:21:28It's right!

0:21:30 > 0:21:32It's right. Well, you pass the high score

0:21:32 > 0:21:33of 61.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38APPLAUSE

0:21:38 > 0:21:39You see, that is the thing.

0:21:39 > 0:21:42Pointless sometimes forces you to go for a better score, actually.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44So, Ampere - very well done indeed.

0:21:44 > 0:21:47Yes. Andre-Marie Ampere.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49- It's French.- Ampere.- Yeah.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51Do you think he was Grand-pere Ampere to someone?

0:21:51 > 0:21:54Aw, that's nice. That is a nice thought, isn't it?

0:21:54 > 0:21:57Thank you, Richard. Now, Gail.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59This board is all yours, so if you fancied it,

0:21:59 > 0:22:02you could waltz through it and fill in all the blanks for us.

0:22:03 > 0:22:04I don't have a clue.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08For any of them.

0:22:08 > 0:22:09I am going to have to take a guess

0:22:09 > 0:22:12and say the bottom one, argon.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16OK, argon, the pungent gas.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19Argon, let's see if it's right and how many people said it.

0:22:23 > 0:22:25Bad luck. I'm afraid it's an incorrect answer.

0:22:25 > 0:22:27Scores you 100 points.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29Some of these are actually easier than you think.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32I think we get scared when we see scientific questions,

0:22:32 > 0:22:33but the top one,

0:22:33 > 0:22:36the objects are asteroids.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38- Ah, yes.- You see?- There you go.

0:22:38 > 0:22:4042 points for that.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42The next answer down is the alkanes.

0:22:42 > 0:22:43Good answer. 4 points.

0:22:43 > 0:22:44Well done if you said that at home.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46The rate at which velocity changes?

0:22:46 > 0:22:48Acceleration. I know that one.

0:22:48 > 0:22:5134 points. And the pungent gas?

0:22:51 > 0:22:54- Ammonia.- It is. 17 points for that.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56So, alkanes the best answer up there.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58Thanks very much indeed. We are halfway through the round.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00Let's look at the scores.

0:23:00 > 0:23:0216. Jill and Stephen looking very strong at this point.

0:23:02 > 0:23:0661. Simon and Lizzie still in with a shout, I would say.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09And then up to 100, Gail and Steve. Your are out in front.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11Steve, we need a low score from you. Best of luck.

0:23:11 > 0:23:12We'll come back down the line.

0:23:12 > 0:23:15Can the second players step up to the podium.

0:23:17 > 0:23:22Let's put six more scientific terms beginning with A up on the board.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Here are the clues.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47I will read those all one last time.

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Steve, you're the high-scorers on 100. We need a low score.

0:24:10 > 0:24:11How do we like

0:24:11 > 0:24:13the look of that board?

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Well, not bad. I think I maybe know

0:24:15 > 0:24:17a couple of obvious answers.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19It is just deciding which one

0:24:19 > 0:24:20may be the lowest.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22I think I will try -

0:24:22 > 0:24:23hopefully it is right -

0:24:23 > 0:24:25type of radioactive particle,

0:24:25 > 0:24:27atom.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30Atom, says Steve. Atom. Let's see if it's right.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32No red line for a you as you're the high-scorers.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34Let's see how many people said atom.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Oh, bad luck, Steve.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41I'm afraid that is pretty clear.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43That is an incorrect answer, scores you 100 points.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46Takes your total up to an unbeatable 200.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48- Sorry.- Sorry, Steve.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50If every atom was radioactive, we would be in trouble.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53- We wouldn't be here. - We just wouldn't.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55This show would have been decommissioned.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57LAUGHTER

0:24:57 > 0:25:00Thanks, Rich. Now, Stephen.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03A little bit of pressure off you. You're through whatever happens.

0:25:03 > 0:25:04But I think there's a good answer

0:25:04 > 0:25:06- in there.- I think I know three.

0:25:06 > 0:25:08I am going to go for the one

0:25:08 > 0:25:09I am most confident about.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11I'll go for the third one

0:25:11 > 0:25:12and Alfred.

0:25:12 > 0:25:15Alfred Nobel. Alfred Nobel. Let's see if that is right.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19No red line, you are already through.

0:25:21 > 0:25:22It's right!

0:25:26 > 0:25:29- 21. - APPLAUSE

0:25:29 > 0:25:31Very well done. 21 takes your total up to 37,

0:25:31 > 0:25:33the lowest total of this round.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36Very well played. Safely through. Famously the inventor of dynamite.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39and various other explosives as well, Alfred Nobel.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42Thanks, Richard. Now, Lizzie, great news.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45You are once again in the head-to-head.

0:25:45 > 0:25:48Yes, no target for you. Whatever you score, you're through.

0:25:48 > 0:25:49Do you fancy talking

0:25:49 > 0:25:50us through that board?

0:25:50 > 0:25:52I will have a go.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54Noble gas, I would go for argon.

0:25:54 > 0:25:57Main artery, aorta.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59Air sacs, alveoli.

0:25:59 > 0:26:02Next one, I would guess an anion.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04Substance pH greater than 7 -

0:26:04 > 0:26:05alkali.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09My final answer will be alveoli

0:26:09 > 0:26:10for tiny air sacs.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12The alveoli, says Lizzie. No red line

0:26:12 > 0:26:14because you are already through.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16Let's see how many of our 100 said alveoli.

0:26:18 > 0:26:19It is right.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26- 26. - APPLAUSE

0:26:26 > 0:26:28The doc has still got it.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31- Takes your total to 87. - I'd forgotten she was a doctor.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34I forgot you were a doctor, Lizzie, before you went through that.

0:26:34 > 0:26:35It very impressive, though.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38Alveoli is one of those things I learned at school.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40I was desperately trying to bring it to mind, I couldn't do it.

0:26:40 > 0:26:41- Isn't that awful?- Mm.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43You are absolutely right about

0:26:43 > 0:26:45the noble gas. It is argon. 28.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47You're right about the aorta as well,

0:26:47 > 0:26:49- the main artery.- Why aorta!

0:26:49 > 0:26:51That would have scored you 54.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53You're right about the bottom one,

0:26:53 > 0:26:55which is alkali. 38.

0:26:55 > 0:26:58But the doctor got one wrong. SHE LAUGHS

0:26:58 > 0:27:00Yeah. The type of radioactive particle,

0:27:00 > 0:27:03it is an alpha particle.

0:27:03 > 0:27:04Would have scored 6 points -

0:27:04 > 0:27:06best answer on the board. Well done if you said that at home.

0:27:06 > 0:27:09Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of our second round,

0:27:09 > 0:27:14the pair who head home with a high score of 200 is Steve and Gail.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17I am afraid you don't get an A in science. I'm afraid...

0:27:17 > 0:27:20I don't know what that is. A U, maybe. I don't know.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23But we will see you again next time. You can come back for resits.

0:27:23 > 0:27:25We will look forward to that very much.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27In the meantime, thanks very much for playing. Steve and Gail.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29APPLAUSE

0:27:31 > 0:27:34For the remaining two pairs, it is time for our head-to-head.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41Congratulations, Jill and Stephen, Simon and Lizzie.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43You are one step closer to the final and a chance

0:27:43 > 0:27:48to play for our jackpot, which currently still stands at £1,000.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51This is the point were we decide who goes through to the final

0:27:51 > 0:27:53and plays for that jackpot and we do this,

0:27:53 > 0:27:55as you know, by making you go head-to-head.

0:27:55 > 0:27:59The difference is you can now confer before you give your answers.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01The first player to win two questions will be

0:28:01 > 0:28:02playing for that jackpot.

0:28:02 > 0:28:06Jill and Stephen, well done you. I mean, amazing.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Lovely low scores throughout both rounds.

0:28:08 > 0:28:11Neither of them have been your specialist subjects,

0:28:11 > 0:28:14and yet there you are, our low-scoring pair.

0:28:14 > 0:28:17Simon and Lizzie, you were our low-scoring pair last time.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19- Mind you, that didn't do you any good. - THEY LAUGH

0:28:19 > 0:28:21So maybe having the boot on the other foot

0:28:21 > 0:28:24might see you through to the final.

0:28:24 > 0:28:26Best of luck. Best of luck to both pairs.

0:28:26 > 0:28:27Let's play the head-to-head.

0:28:33 > 0:28:36Here comes your first question and it concerns...

0:28:39 > 0:28:41- THEY LAUGH - Famous Simons.

0:28:41 > 0:28:42Simon excited about that.

0:28:42 > 0:28:45We're going to show you five pictures of famous people called Simon.

0:28:45 > 0:28:48Can you identify the most obscure Simon, Simon?

0:28:50 > 0:28:53OK, thank you, Richard. Let's reveal the Simons.

0:28:54 > 0:28:55We have got...

0:29:14 > 0:29:17There we are. Five famous Simons.

0:29:17 > 0:29:18Now, Jill and Stephen, you have been

0:29:18 > 0:29:21our low scorers throughout the show so you will go first.

0:29:21 > 0:29:22Feel free to confer.

0:29:22 > 0:29:26I think the only one I know is D, Simon Callow.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29I know E, Simon Le Bon, but that's it.

0:29:29 > 0:29:33- Is that him?- Yeah. - It doesn't look like him.

0:29:33 > 0:29:37Well, OK-ish. We're going to go for D,

0:29:37 > 0:29:39- Simon Callow.- Simon Callow.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42Simon Callow, say Jill and Stephen.

0:29:42 > 0:29:46Now, Simon and Lizzie. Talk us through the Simons.

0:29:46 > 0:29:49- If only we could. - Come on, it is simple, Simon.

0:29:49 > 0:29:53LAUGHTER AND GROANING

0:29:55 > 0:29:59The only one that may be right

0:29:59 > 0:30:04and it is just a name I recognised -

0:30:04 > 0:30:05B, Simon Rattle.

0:30:05 > 0:30:07OK, you're going to go for Simon Rattle.

0:30:07 > 0:30:10We have Simon Callow and Simon Rattle.

0:30:10 > 0:30:12Jill and Stephen said Simon Callow for D.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15Let's see if that is right and how many people said it.

0:30:22 > 0:30:2435.

0:30:28 > 0:30:3235. Now, Simon and Lizzie have said Simon Rattle,

0:30:32 > 0:30:34or rather Sir Simon Rattle, I should say, for B.

0:30:34 > 0:30:38Let's see if that is right and how many of our 100 people said it.

0:30:40 > 0:30:41It is right.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44Will it beat 35?

0:30:44 > 0:30:46Yes, it will! Well done.

0:30:46 > 0:30:4726 for Simon Rattle.

0:30:47 > 0:30:49APPLAUSE

0:30:50 > 0:30:53Which means, Simon and Lizzie, after one question you are up 1-nil.

0:30:53 > 0:30:55Plucked that from somewhere. Very good answer.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58The conductor Sir Simon Rattle.

0:30:58 > 0:31:02The biggest answer on the board is A and that is Simon Mayo.

0:31:02 > 0:31:06- That is nice for Simon Mayo.- It is. He's a lovely fellow, Simon.

0:31:06 > 0:31:09- He is. Very nice fellow. - Very nice fellow. 38.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12C is the poet Simon Armitage.

0:31:13 > 0:31:16He would have scored 3, which is less nice for Simon Armitage.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19It is less nice for him. He looks like...

0:31:19 > 0:31:22I think it was the keyboard player in The Stranglers looked like that.

0:31:22 > 0:31:25RICHARD LAUGHS And E is a very low-scorer.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27I've think it must be cos of the photograph.

0:31:27 > 0:31:30Some people maybe not recognising him with the beard or the look.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32It is a slightly arch look in his eye, I think.

0:31:32 > 0:31:34Simon Le Bon, that is.

0:31:34 > 0:31:37- There you go.- And it would have scored you 12 points.

0:31:37 > 0:31:41There we go, Simon Le Bon. Here comes your second question.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44Simon and Lizzie get to answer it first, but Jill and Stephen,

0:31:44 > 0:31:47you have to win this one to stay in the game, so best of luck.

0:31:47 > 0:31:48It concerns...

0:31:51 > 0:31:53LAUGHTER

0:31:53 > 0:31:54Culinary nuts.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56We are simply going to give you five clues

0:31:56 > 0:31:58to types of edible culinary nuts.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01Can you tell us what the nuts are, please?

0:32:01 > 0:32:05OK, let us see what our nuts are. here are the clues.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30I will read those all once more.

0:32:44 > 0:32:47There we are. Simon and Lizzie will go first.

0:32:48 > 0:32:51- WHISPERS:- Macadamia.- Go for that one.

0:32:51 > 0:32:53- Do you think?- Go for it, yeah.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55Go for it. You say it, go on.

0:32:55 > 0:32:57Macadamia for the middle one.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59- For the Scottish-born Australian?- Yeah.

0:32:59 > 0:33:02OK, macadamia. Jill and Stephen?

0:33:04 > 0:33:05Um, well, that was the one

0:33:05 > 0:33:07we were going to go for.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09We know the others,

0:33:09 > 0:33:11apart from the fourth one.

0:33:11 > 0:33:12Um... Do you think

0:33:12 > 0:33:13- the top one?- Yeah.

0:33:13 > 0:33:15We will go for cashew for the top one.

0:33:15 > 0:33:17You're going to go for cashew.

0:33:17 > 0:33:20So, we have macadamia and we have cashew.

0:33:20 > 0:33:22Simon and Lizzie went for macadamia.

0:33:22 > 0:33:23Let's see if that is right

0:33:23 > 0:33:26and how many of our 100 people said macadamia.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31It is right.

0:33:32 > 0:33:35- 50. - APPLAUSE

0:33:36 > 0:33:3750. That is quite high.

0:33:37 > 0:33:40I think you were hoping that might go further down.

0:33:40 > 0:33:43Jill and Stephen, meanwhile, have gone for the cashew, the acajou.

0:33:43 > 0:33:47Let's see if cashew is right and if it is, how many people said it.

0:33:47 > 0:33:49You have to win this one to stay in the game. Good luck.

0:33:51 > 0:33:52It is right.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54Has to go below 50.

0:33:54 > 0:33:56Ooh, no! 58 for cashew.

0:33:56 > 0:34:00APPLAUSE

0:34:00 > 0:34:02Well, there is something poetic about that.

0:34:02 > 0:34:04Simon and Lizzie, you're going through to the final

0:34:04 > 0:34:06after only two questions. You're going through 2-nil.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09They were actually the best two answers on the board,

0:34:09 > 0:34:11those two. Well done.

0:34:11 > 0:34:12Walnut, of course,

0:34:12 > 0:34:14is the next one down.

0:34:15 > 0:34:18Would have scored 87. Big score.

0:34:18 > 0:34:19You do know this one -

0:34:19 > 0:34:20it is Brazil nut.

0:34:22 > 0:34:25Would have scored you 75.

0:34:25 > 0:34:27This bottom one is one of those clues

0:34:27 > 0:34:28that gets easier and easier

0:34:28 > 0:34:30- as it goes on.- Mm!

0:34:30 > 0:34:31What do you think that scored?

0:34:31 > 0:34:33- It is chestnut, of course.- Obviously.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35What do you think that would score?

0:34:35 > 0:34:38That old chestnut? 94.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40- 96 points.- Oh, what about that?

0:34:40 > 0:34:43- 96 for chestnut.- There we go.

0:34:43 > 0:34:44Thanks, Richard.

0:34:44 > 0:34:47The pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round...

0:34:47 > 0:34:50Oh, I'm so sorry. You did so well up to this round.

0:34:50 > 0:34:52Nothing wrong with either of your answers, of course.

0:34:52 > 0:34:54But Simon and Lizzie, I'm afraid,

0:34:54 > 0:34:56whipped the rug from under your feet.

0:34:56 > 0:34:58But good news for us, Jill and Stephen.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00We get to see you again next show. We look forward to that.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03In the meantime, thanks very much indeed. Jill and Stephen.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06APPLAUSE

0:35:06 > 0:35:10But for Simon and Lizzie, it is time for our Pointless final.

0:35:13 > 0:35:15Congratulations, Simon and Lizzie.

0:35:15 > 0:35:17You have seen off all the competition

0:35:17 > 0:35:19and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:35:27 > 0:35:32At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,000.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34There it is. Well, finally, you've done it.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36You were head-to-head last time.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39As always, you get to choose your category from the four we put there.

0:35:39 > 0:35:42Let's hope there is something up there for you.

0:35:42 > 0:35:44Today's selection looks like this.

0:35:52 > 0:35:54- It has got to be Art, hasn't it?- Yeah.

0:35:54 > 0:35:57- It's got to be Art, I think. - It is going to be Art.- Yeah.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00Very good. Richard.

0:36:00 > 0:36:02We have got three very different questions for you here.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04Very best of luck. Hope one of these suits you.

0:36:04 > 0:36:06We are looking for...

0:36:07 > 0:36:10Anyone who had an acting credit in the film Mr Turner,

0:36:10 > 0:36:12according to IMDb.

0:36:12 > 0:36:15We are looking for the name of any artist whose work appears

0:36:15 > 0:36:18in the highlights of the Tate Collection on their website.

0:36:18 > 0:36:20That is the name of any artist who has any work on that list.

0:36:20 > 0:36:23Or we're looking for any artist who featured

0:36:23 > 0:36:28in the National Gallery's 2015 exhibition Inventing Impressionism.

0:36:28 > 0:36:31The cast of Mr Turner, artists in the Tate Collection highlights

0:36:31 > 0:36:34or artists in the Inventing Impressionism exhibition.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36Very, very best of luck.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38OK. As always, you have got up to one minute

0:36:38 > 0:36:41to come up with three answers and all you need to win that jackpot

0:36:41 > 0:36:44is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:36:44 > 0:36:46- Are you ready?- Yes.- Yeah.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.

0:36:48 > 0:36:50Your time starts now.

0:36:50 > 0:36:52I don't know anyone in the cast of Mr Turner.

0:36:52 > 0:36:53- Have you seen it?- No.- No.

0:36:53 > 0:36:57Tate highlights, they'd have some classics, wouldn't they?

0:36:57 > 0:37:00Is it Tate artists or is it the Tate Modern?

0:37:00 > 0:37:04- Um...- Inventing Impressionism is probably the best bet.

0:37:04 > 0:37:09- Yeah, if we just pick...- Yeah.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11I have never seen it and I'm not aware of it,

0:37:11 > 0:37:12so if we just went with something.

0:37:12 > 0:37:18- I'm thinking probably someone like Arthur Sisley.- OK.

0:37:18 > 0:37:19Can you think of anybody?

0:37:21 > 0:37:25I mean, you have got the obvious ones like Monet and Manet and Degas.

0:37:25 > 0:37:27Um...

0:37:27 > 0:37:30- I'm trying to think of some more. - Cezanne.

0:37:30 > 0:37:36What were the ladies? The lady impressionists? Um...

0:37:37 > 0:37:40- Oh, for goodness' sake. - Ten seconds left.

0:37:40 > 0:37:43- Couldn't you have done the history of art?- I know. - SHE CHUCKLES

0:37:43 > 0:37:46Um... Ah...

0:37:46 > 0:37:48Morisot. Berthe Morisot.

0:37:48 > 0:37:50Say Berthe Morisot.

0:37:50 > 0:37:52OK, that is your time up.

0:37:52 > 0:37:54- It sounds like you have got three answers.- Yes.

0:37:54 > 0:37:57- Let's hear them. - Couple of suspect ones.

0:37:57 > 0:38:00- Berthe Morisot.- Berthe Morisot.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03- Arthur Sisley.- Arthur Sisley.

0:38:03 > 0:38:04And...

0:38:04 > 0:38:09- Monet.- And Monet. Claude Monet.- Claude Monet.

0:38:09 > 0:38:11- From which category? - Inventing Impressionism.

0:38:11 > 0:38:12From Inventing Impressionism.

0:38:12 > 0:38:16OK. Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:16 > 0:38:18If she is right, I would suspect Berthe Morisot.

0:38:18 > 0:38:22Berthe Morisot we will put last. least likely to be pointless?

0:38:22 > 0:38:24- The obvious one is Monet.- Monet, OK.

0:38:24 > 0:38:28OK, let's put those up on the board in that order, then. Here they are.

0:38:28 > 0:38:29We have got...

0:38:34 > 0:38:36Very, very best of luck.

0:38:36 > 0:38:39Before we put any of these answers to the test, I want to find out

0:38:39 > 0:38:44what you would do if you won that jackpot, 1,000 quid. Simon?

0:38:44 > 0:38:46It is my 30th wedding anniversary this year,

0:38:46 > 0:38:48so probably some new golf clubs.

0:38:48 > 0:38:51LAUGHTER

0:38:56 > 0:38:58Congratulations.

0:39:00 > 0:39:03- Lizzie?- We're going to France later this year,

0:39:03 > 0:39:07so I would quite like to take my daughter via Disneyland en route.

0:39:07 > 0:39:09Very nice indeed. Very best of luck.

0:39:09 > 0:39:12Let's hope one of these answers, at least, is pointless.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15In all cases, you gave your answers in the category

0:39:15 > 0:39:18from the Inventing Impressionism exhibition.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20Your first answer, the one you thought was least likely

0:39:20 > 0:39:22to be pointless, was Claude Monet.

0:39:22 > 0:39:24How many people said Claude Monet? Is it pointless?

0:39:27 > 0:39:29It is right.

0:39:29 > 0:39:31If this goes all the way down to 0 by some miracle,

0:39:31 > 0:39:34you will leave with £1,000.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36Claude Monet now taking us down through the 30s,

0:39:36 > 0:39:37into the 20s...

0:39:37 > 0:39:39Oh, 20. There we are.

0:39:39 > 0:39:41APPLAUSE

0:39:43 > 0:39:46Monet was just holding a place there for us,

0:39:46 > 0:39:47because you had to come up with a third answer.

0:39:47 > 0:39:49Unfortunately not a pointless answer,

0:39:49 > 0:39:52but you would have been very surprised if it had been.

0:39:52 > 0:39:54Only two more shots at today's jackpot.

0:39:54 > 0:39:58Your second answer, also from the Inventing Impressionism exhibition,

0:39:58 > 0:40:02was Arthur Sisley. Let's find out if it is pointless.

0:40:02 > 0:40:04For £1,000, how many people said Arthur Sisley.

0:40:09 > 0:40:10Not him.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12- He realised afterwards. - You're thinking of Alfred Sisley.

0:40:12 > 0:40:15OK, an incorrect answer. But all is not lost.

0:40:15 > 0:40:18Everything is now riding on your third and final answer,

0:40:18 > 0:40:21which is Berthe Morisot.

0:40:21 > 0:40:22Again, we were looking for people

0:40:22 > 0:40:25from the Inventing Impressionism exhibition.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27It has to be right and it has to be pointless.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29If it is both of those things,

0:40:29 > 0:40:33those golf clubs and that trip to Euro Disney might be yours.

0:40:33 > 0:40:37Let's find out how many people said Berthe Morisot. Is it pointless?

0:40:40 > 0:40:42- It's right. - That's a good start.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44Your first answer was right, Claude Monet,

0:40:44 > 0:40:45but that stopped on 20.

0:40:45 > 0:40:47Your second answer, Arthur Sisley, was wrong.

0:40:47 > 0:40:50Your third answer takes us down to the single figures,

0:40:50 > 0:40:51still going down....

0:40:51 > 0:40:54You've done it! You have done it.

0:40:54 > 0:40:56Very well done.

0:40:56 > 0:41:00Absolutely brilliant. Fantastic.

0:41:05 > 0:41:08Very, very well done. Many congratulations.

0:41:08 > 0:41:12Berthe Morisot was a pointless answer, which means you go home

0:41:12 > 0:41:14with our jackpot of £1,000.

0:41:14 > 0:41:15A very popular win there.

0:41:15 > 0:41:19And what a great and fitting end to your Pointless career.

0:41:19 > 0:41:22- Very well done indeed. Richard. - Isn't that lovely? Congratulations.

0:41:22 > 0:41:25What a lovely father-daughter pairing as well.

0:41:25 > 0:41:28It is really lovely to see.

0:41:28 > 0:41:29It's Alfred Sisley, as you said.

0:41:29 > 0:41:32- It would have scored you 1 point.- Oh!

0:41:32 > 0:41:35To be honest, it would have been more exciting for the show...

0:41:35 > 0:41:38LAUGHTER ..if you had managed to get it right.

0:41:38 > 0:41:39- Next time.- But there it is.

0:41:39 > 0:41:42Let's look at the pointless answers in the different categories.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44First one is Mr Turner.

0:41:44 > 0:41:46Every single actor in Mr Turner apart from Tim Spall

0:41:46 > 0:41:48was a pointless answer here.

0:41:48 > 0:41:51If you knew any of them, you did very well. Some great actors there.

0:41:53 > 0:41:55There are loads and loads of pointless answers

0:41:55 > 0:41:57in the next one, the Tate collection highlights.

0:41:57 > 0:41:59Some very, very famous artists in this.

0:42:03 > 0:42:05You could have had Giacometti, Anish Kapoor, Antony Gormley,

0:42:05 > 0:42:08Ben Nicholson, Bridget Riley, Eric Gill, George Braque,

0:42:08 > 0:42:11Gilbert & George, Henry Moore, Howard Hodgkin, Jackson Pollock.

0:42:11 > 0:42:14You could have had Jasper Johns, Joan Miro, John Singer Sargent.

0:42:14 > 0:42:16You could have had Joshua Reynolds, Marcel Duchamp,

0:42:16 > 0:42:19Stanley Spencer, Wassily Kandinsky, Eve Klein.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22Lots and lots and lots of pointless answers on that one.

0:42:22 > 0:42:24Very well done if you said one of them.

0:42:24 > 0:42:28And for the impressionists one, the Inventing Impressionism.

0:42:28 > 0:42:32Essentially, everybody in that exhibition apart from Monet,

0:42:32 > 0:42:35Manet, Renoir, Degas, Pissarro and Sisley.

0:42:35 > 0:42:38Everybody else was a pointless answer. It could have been...

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Well done at home if you got a pointless answer.

0:42:43 > 0:42:44And congratulations in the studio.

0:42:44 > 0:42:46Thanks very much, Richard.

0:42:46 > 0:42:48Thanks once again to our winning players, Simon and Lizzie,

0:42:58 > 0:43:00more obscure knowledge to the test on pointless.
