0:00:20 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I am Alexander Armstrong.

0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Pointless, the show where the more obscure your knowledge,

0:00:27 > 0:00:30the better your chances of winning. Let's meet today's players.

0:00:35 > 0:00:36Couple number one.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38Hi, I'm Ian, this is my co-worker Anisha

0:00:38 > 0:00:41and we work at a university in Leicester.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44- Couple number two.- Hi, I'm Ben, this is my grandmother Allison.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46I am from Cheltenham, she is from Gloucester.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48Couple number three.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50I'm Stewart, this is my wife, Kerry, and we are from south London.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52And finally, couple number four.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm Stu, this is my friend Jo and we're from Sheffield.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57And these are today's contestants.

0:01:00 > 0:01:01Thanks very much, all of you.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04We'll find out more about you throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Here to get the show on the road, which should be fun

0:01:09 > 0:01:12because he can't drive, it is my Pointless friend, it is Richard.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Hiya. Afternoon, everybody.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19- Afternoon to you.- Afternoon to you. - Now, very familiar line-up.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21We have got three returning pairs here.

0:01:21 > 0:01:25We have got Jo and Stu, got knocked out in Round One last time.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27I think they're quite bright, though.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29- I think they are. - I could be wrong, gents,

0:01:29 > 0:01:30- but I think you are.- Could be.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32Hopefully we see more of them.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Anisha and Ian got knocked out in Round Two.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37And Ben and Allison, grandson and grandmother combination,

0:01:37 > 0:01:39got all the way to the head-to-head.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41It was going very, very well.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43It was going very well and they were performing brilliantly

0:01:43 > 0:01:45and then we put up a picture of

0:01:45 > 0:01:48the 1976 gold medallist figure skater John Curry

0:01:48 > 0:01:50and Allison told us it was Burt Kwouk.

0:01:50 > 0:01:54- LAUGHTER - Which it wasn't.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57Yes, so Sarah and Jason went through to that final round.

0:01:57 > 0:02:01- Won £3,000 as well.- Mmm.- A really nice jackpot win last time.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04Kerry and Stewart a new pair, so we welcome you into the fray.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06We hope you enjoy your stay with us.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08Thank you very much indeed.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Yes, as you will have gathered, Sarah and Jason

0:02:10 > 0:02:13won the jackpot last time, so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16There it is. Right, if everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24So, remember - I'm looking particularly at you,

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Kerry and Stewart, our newcomers - the pair with the highest score

0:02:27 > 0:02:30at the end of each round will be eliminated.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32No conferring in the first two rounds.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35Our first category today is...

0:02:37 > 0:02:39The English Language.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42Can you decide in your pairs who will go first, who will go second?

0:02:42 > 0:02:45And whoever is going first, step up to the podium.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51And the question concerns...

0:02:54 > 0:02:55Words that begin with 'pro'. Richard.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57On each board, we'll show you seven definitions

0:02:57 > 0:03:00of words in the Oxford Dictionary of English that begin with

0:03:00 > 0:03:03the letters P-R-O. You need to tell us the most obscure of those.

0:03:03 > 0:03:0514 in all to have a go in at home. Very best of luck.

0:03:05 > 0:03:06Thanks very much.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09Let's reveal our first seven definitions. Here they are.

0:03:09 > 0:03:10We have got...

0:03:32 > 0:03:34I will read those all again.

0:03:50 > 0:03:54Anisha, welcome back. It was Round Two last time, wasn't it?

0:03:54 > 0:03:57- Yes.- We had to say goodbye to you. Remind us what you do.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00I am an outreach officer at the University of Leicester

0:04:00 > 0:04:01and I work in the union.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05But outreach? To who particularly do you want to reach?

0:04:05 > 0:04:07- Mostly children in schools.- OK.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10And I try to get student societies to do things

0:04:10 > 0:04:11with people in schools.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13Very good. And in your spare time, Anisha,

0:04:13 > 0:04:15what do you like to get up to?

0:04:15 > 0:04:17I like to go and watch the stars,

0:04:17 > 0:04:20- so I do a bit of stargazing occasionally.- That is exciting.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23Have you got that brilliant app that you hold-up and it tells you...?

0:04:23 > 0:04:24- Yeah.- I've got to get that.

0:04:24 > 0:04:28- How many do you know, do you reckon? - A few. Not enough, though.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30- I want to learn more.- Very good.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32- OK, now, Anisha.- Yes.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34You get first pick of this board.

0:04:34 > 0:04:36Nothing too scary on there,

0:04:36 > 0:04:37- I think.- No.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39I think I am going to stick

0:04:39 > 0:04:40with the top one.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42So, university academic of

0:04:42 > 0:04:44the highest-ranking - professor.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46Professor, says Anisha.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Let's see if it is right and how many of our 100 said it.

0:04:50 > 0:04:51It is right.

0:04:53 > 0:04:5478.

0:04:54 > 0:04:57APPLAUSE That is a high score, that.

0:04:57 > 0:04:58Top ranking, top scoring.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00It is a big scorer, yeah.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03Of course, one of the most famous ex-professors in the world,

0:05:03 > 0:05:04Barack Obama was a law professor.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06Was very popular as well.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09- I bet he was.- Got very good assessment marks from his pupils.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Thanks very much indeed.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13- Now, Ben, welcome back.- Hello.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16- Head-to-head!- Yes. - Oh, you was robbed.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18- You was robbed by the Kwouk. - Yes, indeed.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Oh. Remind us what you do, Ben.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23I work for the family firm manufacturing ladders.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25How long has the family been in ladders?

0:05:25 > 0:05:30Quite a long time, since about 1948. My great-grandfather started it.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32Do you think Ben has a stepfamily who make stepladders?

0:05:32 > 0:05:34LAUGHTER

0:05:36 > 0:05:40Very good. Very, very good. How is that going in the ladders world?

0:05:40 > 0:05:41- It is going well.- All good?

0:05:41 > 0:05:44I mean, unless a cherry picker firm sets up next door,

0:05:44 > 0:05:46you've got nothing to worry about.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49- People will always need ladders, won't they?- That's right. Yes.

0:05:49 > 0:05:50Now, Ben, what are you

0:05:50 > 0:05:52going to go for on this board?

0:05:52 > 0:05:54OK, I have got a couple of ideas.

0:05:54 > 0:05:55I think I will go for the second

0:05:55 > 0:05:58one, which I think is propaganda.

0:05:58 > 0:05:59Propaganda.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01Let's see if that is right and if it is, how many people spotted

0:06:01 > 0:06:03propaganda.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07It is right. 78 is our only score and you pass it.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Oh, it is good. 22. APPLAUSE

0:06:13 > 0:06:14Looking very good for Round Two

0:06:14 > 0:06:17at this stage Ben, I would say. 22 for 'propaganda'.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Well played. During the Second World War

0:06:19 > 0:06:21we had the Ministry of Information,

0:06:21 > 0:06:23who were the chief propagandists of the British cause.

0:06:23 > 0:06:25I'd liked to have worked in the Ministry of Information.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28- You'd have been good.- It'd be fun, wouldn't it?- It'd be quite fun.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31- Lots of posters.- Loads of posters. - Songs as well.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34I could... We could work together and maybe write some songs.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36Write some popular songs. That's fun.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39- There we are. OK, now, Stewart, welcome.- Thank you.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Stewart, hang on, you're from London

0:06:41 > 0:06:44but when you introduced yourselves, there's a twang there.

0:06:44 > 0:06:45Where are you from originally?

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Originally, I am from Canada, Montreal.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50- So, Stewart, what do you do? - Kerry and I are film-makers.

0:06:50 > 0:06:54In what capacity do you work in the making of the film?

0:06:54 > 0:06:57We just produced our first feature film, which I wrote,

0:06:57 > 0:07:01- Kerry and I co-produced and co-directed.- Wow.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04And you're still together? I think that is an amazing thing.

0:07:04 > 0:07:05Everyone says that!

0:07:05 > 0:07:08But it is incredible! How amazing that you do it so well together.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10That is proper cooperation, isn't it?

0:07:10 > 0:07:14- Yeah.- And that, presumably, occupies a lot of your time.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17You can't really go home from it when home is it.

0:07:17 > 0:07:20- No, that is it.- Are you good at switching off from that?

0:07:20 > 0:07:23We switch off...by watching Pointless.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27Aww! So, you get 45 minutes a day off. That is nice.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Do you do anything else apart from that,

0:07:29 > 0:07:32apart from watching Pointless and making films?

0:07:32 > 0:07:33What else do you like to get up to?

0:07:33 > 0:07:37I am also an actor, so do a lot of acting

0:07:37 > 0:07:40and then that means you do things like going to the theatre.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43Our first film was entirely set on a London common,

0:07:43 > 0:07:46so it is called Common People and we actually still love

0:07:46 > 0:07:49going for walks on Tooting Common, which is nearby.

0:07:49 > 0:07:53So, kind of hobbies and work all mixed up together.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Mixing up together. That is lovely. Very nice existence.

0:07:55 > 0:07:59And here you are on Pointless. It all just turns in on itself.

0:07:59 > 0:08:00Stewart, what are you going to

0:08:00 > 0:08:02go for, all these 'pros' up here?

0:08:03 > 0:08:06I am going to go with propel.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08- The third one down. - The third one down.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11Everyone going in order, that is nice. Third one down - propel.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13Let's see if it is right and how many people said it.

0:08:15 > 0:08:1678 is the high score.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19You pass it. 22 is our low score.

0:08:19 > 0:08:2244 is where you end up. APPLAUSE

0:08:26 > 0:08:28Very well played, Stewart. That is nice, going in order.

0:08:28 > 0:08:32I hope they go for the fourth one on podium four. That would be nice.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34It would be nice. Quite annoying if they don't.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36I think it would be churlish if they didn't.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Yes. LAUGHTER

0:08:38 > 0:08:41- But we will see. No pressure, gents. - No pressure whatsoever.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44- Now, Jo, welcome back.- Hi. - Welcome back.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Nice to have you back. It was Round One last time.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48We had a great answer from you, Suriname.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51We were looking for countries in Africa that came after Kenya

0:08:51 > 0:08:52alphabetically.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54And Suriname is, alas, not in Africa.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56But one of our favourite pointless answers,

0:08:56 > 0:08:57it is a regular pointless answer.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Yeah, bit of a disappointment there.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03But I went for a gamble, didn't quite pay off. But maybe this time.

0:09:03 > 0:09:04I think this will be a gamble.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07Pointless owes you one, I would say, Jo. Remind us what you do.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10I work at a church, so I am a pastor in a church.

0:09:10 > 0:09:11And how long have you done that?

0:09:11 > 0:09:14- I have been in the church about eight years.- Eight years.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17Have you always been in Sheffield or have you been in various parishes?

0:09:17 > 0:09:20I lived in Devon for ten years and London for ten years as well.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23What church is it? Is it Church of England? Is it...?

0:09:23 > 0:09:24No, it is...

0:09:24 > 0:09:26- Evangelical church.- Evangelical. Right, OK.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29So, who is your authority in that? Do you have a bishop or a...?

0:09:29 > 0:09:35Yeah. There is a worldwide network based down in Australia,

0:09:35 > 0:09:38but our pastor is in Sheffield as well, so it is great.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40Nice pastor? Well, you have to say yes, don't you?

0:09:40 > 0:09:42- Yeah, he is awesome.- Excellent. He is awesome. Good.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Now, there is your board.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Obviously there is an obvious one for you to go for, Jo, number four.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49- But really, you can take your pick.- Gosh.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52Well, the top three were my three.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55I've just got a bit of a mind blank.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57I'm going to have to go with -

0:09:57 > 0:09:59I'm sorry - "Begin on

0:09:59 > 0:10:00a course of action..."

0:10:00 > 0:10:03Oh, I don't know. I am going to put it out there and say produce,

0:10:03 > 0:10:05but I don't think it is right.

0:10:05 > 0:10:06OK, Jo is saying produce.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09Let's see if that is right and how many people said that.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15Sorry, Jo. Not 'produce'.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18Unless you are Stewart and Kerry, in which case producing is

0:10:18 > 0:10:20a sort of beginning of a course of action, isn't it? In films.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23But I'm afraid not the word we are looking for.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25Sorry, Jo, you're going to know every single one of these,

0:10:25 > 0:10:27I'm afraid, when I read them out.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29But it is hard. So many words are sort of similar, aren't they?

0:10:29 > 0:10:31It is like doing a crossword.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34There it is. To begin a course of action is...

0:10:34 > 0:10:35- Proceed.- ..to proceed.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Would have scored 22.

0:10:38 > 0:10:39The one you should have gone for

0:10:39 > 0:10:40is the fourth one down because

0:10:40 > 0:10:42it would have continued the pattern.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Represent an outline from one side?

0:10:44 > 0:10:45- Profile.- Profile.

0:10:46 > 0:10:4832. A piece of research work?

0:10:48 > 0:10:50- Project.- Is a project.

0:10:50 > 0:10:5265 points.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54And to forbid someone is...

0:10:54 > 0:10:56- Prohibit.- ..prohibit.

0:10:56 > 0:10:57And that would have scored 23.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59The best answers on the board -

0:10:59 > 0:11:01proceed and propaganda, Ben.

0:11:01 > 0:11:02Well done.

0:11:02 > 0:11:03There we are. Thanks very much indeed.

0:11:03 > 0:11:06Let's look at the scores. We're halfway through.

0:11:06 > 0:11:07Ben and Allison looking very strong

0:11:07 > 0:11:08thanks to your low score of 22.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11Then up to 44, where we find Stewart and Kerry.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13Up to 78, where we find Anisha and Ian.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15And then up to 100, Jo and Stu.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17It is quite a nice spread across the scoreboard.

0:11:17 > 0:11:18You're not way out in front, Jo and Stu.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21So, Stu, new board will be yours.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23Find a nice low score and it might keep you in the game.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25Best of luck. We'll come back down the line.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27Can the second players step up to the podium?

0:11:30 > 0:11:33OK, let's put seven more 'pros' up on the board, and here they are.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35We have got...

0:12:01 > 0:12:02I will read those all again.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21- Stu, Welcome back.- Hello.

0:12:21 > 0:12:25- Remind us what you do, Stu. - I am an author.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27- Indeed you are, a crime author.- Yes.

0:12:27 > 0:12:30- And your first novel is about to come out any minute?- Yes.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33- What is it called?- Strong Arm. - Strong Arm.

0:12:33 > 0:12:35That's right, we like that.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38What else do you get up to, Stu, when you're not writing?

0:12:38 > 0:12:41I spend a lot of time in books. I like to read.

0:12:41 > 0:12:45I am also part of the church that Jo works at and so my wife and I,

0:12:45 > 0:12:51we look after the children there from zero to tens, so we do that.

0:12:51 > 0:12:56And I just love watching MMA, mixed martial arts is a passion of mine.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Do you get involved in it as well?

0:12:58 > 0:13:01I used to, I used to, but at this moment in time,

0:13:01 > 0:13:04I am a bit too old, so I rather watch now.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06There comes a point at which

0:13:06 > 0:13:08you just don't want to be flung down on a mat any more, doesn't there?

0:13:08 > 0:13:10That's true.

0:13:10 > 0:13:13Stu, you're the high-scorers, so we need a low score from you here.

0:13:13 > 0:13:14What are you going to go for

0:13:14 > 0:13:15- on that board?- Um...

0:13:17 > 0:13:19I am going to go for

0:13:19 > 0:13:21the second one down

0:13:21 > 0:13:23and I am going to say probability.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25Probability, says Stu. Let's see.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27No red line for you as you're the high-scorers.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30Let's see how far down the column we get with probability.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38It is a good answer, Stu.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40Well done, 22. APPLAUSE

0:13:43 > 0:13:46The equal of our low score. 122 is your total.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48Good answer. Famously, the probability of winning

0:13:48 > 0:13:51the National Lottery is 13.9 million to one.

0:13:51 > 0:13:53- But then lots of people win it, so...- They do.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56- ..what is that all about? - Interesting. Kerry.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59- Welcome.- Thank you. - So, Common People.- Absolutely.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01Tell us what has happened with Common People.

0:14:01 > 0:14:02When did you release it?

0:14:02 > 0:14:06It went nationwide in cinemas last June.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08- So, theatrical release, that is exciting.- Yes.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11- How many cinemas was it in? - 17 cinemas around the UK.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14Did you show it around? Have you taken it to festivals and things?

0:14:14 > 0:14:16Yeah, we had a year of travelling around festivals

0:14:16 > 0:14:19and we were lucky enough to win some awards in the States

0:14:19 > 0:14:21and in Canada, so that was lovely.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24- But this is just the first, it is the first of many.- Yes.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26- Very exciting. You can build on all that.- Yeah.

0:14:26 > 0:14:27Congratulations to you.

0:14:27 > 0:14:32You are on 44, so 77 or less is what you must score to stay with us.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35Yeah, Round One I'm already having a Pointless wobble.

0:14:35 > 0:14:36I knew them all and now

0:14:36 > 0:14:37I'm trying to remember

0:14:37 > 0:14:39which ones came into my head.

0:14:39 > 0:14:42So, I think announce officially or

0:14:42 > 0:14:44- publicly is proclaim.- Proclaim.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47Proclaim, says Kerry. Here's your red line.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49If you get below that with 'proclaim', you are into Round Two.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51How many people said proclaim?

0:14:53 > 0:14:57- Oh!- Very well done. Relief there for Kerry.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59Down it goes.

0:14:59 > 0:15:01Comfortably through - 27. APPLAUSE

0:15:01 > 0:15:03Takes your total up to 71.

0:15:05 > 0:15:06Another good answer.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08The Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, which is a symbol of

0:15:08 > 0:15:10American independence, it is said to,

0:15:10 > 0:15:12"Proclaim liberty throughout all the land."

0:15:12 > 0:15:14- That's nice.- That is nice.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17It was one of the rallying cries of the anti-slavery movement.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21Thank you, Richard. Now, Allison, welcome back to Pointless.

0:15:21 > 0:15:25Now then, last time, we discovered that you have this wonderful

0:15:25 > 0:15:30career of adjudicating musical performance.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32What...? I mean, we didn't quite get to the nub of it.

0:15:32 > 0:15:34What kind of musical performance is this?

0:15:34 > 0:15:36- Are they exams that people are taking?- Oh, no.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38They are not an exam.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42An examiner can give an assessment but can't communicate with

0:15:42 > 0:15:46the children at all, whereas an adjudicator can teach

0:15:46 > 0:15:52and talk and encourage and make, perhaps, helpful remarks.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54PERHAPS helpful remarks, that's good.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58Now, Allison, when you are not doing your adjudication,

0:15:58 > 0:16:01- what do you like to get up to?- Ah!

0:16:01 > 0:16:03Well, my great delight

0:16:03 > 0:16:08is in all my digital gadgets. I have them all.

0:16:08 > 0:16:13A laptop, a smartphone, even a digital time piece.

0:16:13 > 0:16:17A digital time...? You don't mean a smart watch, like one that then...?

0:16:17 > 0:16:18- Yes, I do.- Made by the famous...

0:16:18 > 0:16:20There is only one company that makes them.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23Allison has been very good at not mentioning the manufacturer

0:16:23 > 0:16:25of all of these items she has talked about.

0:16:25 > 0:16:27The ways she has worked around them all.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30- We know what sort of watch it is. - We know what she's talking about.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33That is incredible, a watch that then sort of can synchronise...

0:16:33 > 0:16:37Synchronise! Honestly... Really. That can download stuff, that can...

0:16:37 > 0:16:40There is a word I am fishing for and I can't think what the hell it is.

0:16:40 > 0:16:44- That can sync, is the word. Yeah, it can sync.- It tells you what to do.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46It keeps you on the straight and narrow.

0:16:46 > 0:16:48It says, "Stop doing that and do that."

0:16:48 > 0:16:50LAUGHTER

0:16:50 > 0:16:52That is why I'll never have one of those watches.

0:16:52 > 0:16:57- LAUGHTER Allison, you are on 22.- Yes.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00You can score 99 or less and still get through to the next round,

0:17:00 > 0:17:02but I think you'll have no problem with this board.

0:17:02 > 0:17:08The bottom one is a rather dear one to my heart.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10I think I'll say programme.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13Programme, says Allison. Here is your red line.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15Couldn't be...couldn't be higher.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17Let's see if you can get below that with programme.

0:17:20 > 0:17:22Well done, Allison.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28Takes your total up to 66.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32Well played, Allison.

0:17:32 > 0:17:33The American version of the word

0:17:33 > 0:17:35loses the M-E on the end of it.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38Cos on my phone, Allison... You'll be able to help me with this.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41I am stuck on the US English keyboard.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44So every time it autocorrects me, it autocorrects me to American.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47- It's really annoying.- I can't... I'll talk to you after the show

0:17:47 > 0:17:49and you can show me how to get out of that.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52But sometimes it just changes it without a by your leave, Richard.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54I know it does. That's the problem. You'll tweet something

0:17:54 > 0:17:56and you haven't realised it changed 'favourite'...

0:17:56 > 0:17:59You know, put a Z instead of an S at the end. You know,

0:17:59 > 0:18:02people think you are trying to be American, all-American and that.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04Or you write 'its' and it just suddenly... Whoa!

0:18:04 > 0:18:06It puts an apostrophe in.

0:18:06 > 0:18:10Oh, dear. Thank you, Richard. Now, Ian, welcome back.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13Ian, good to have you here. Remind us what you do.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16I am a student sports and media coordinator.

0:18:16 > 0:18:17Very good. Sports and media.

0:18:17 > 0:18:22- And also sometime host of the 6pm slot on a Wednesday.- That's correct.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25On the local radio. What is your playlist?

0:18:25 > 0:18:28- What do you like to....?- Eurovision.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31- Lots and lots of Eurovision. - You surprised me there.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34I thought you were going to say indie, grunge.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37- It surprises a lot of people. - But that is your passion, is it?

0:18:37 > 0:18:40Eurovision is a massive passion, yes.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44- Have you been to Eurovision?- I went to it a few years ago in Malmo.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Right.

0:18:46 > 0:18:50- Was it the time of your life? - Yes, definitely.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53Are you just waiting to go again? Where is it going to be next year?

0:18:53 > 0:18:54Well, don't know the city.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57It is going to be in Sweden again, possibly Malmo again.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00Wouldn't that be incredible? Will you be there?

0:19:00 > 0:19:03Perhaps if you win, you could...

0:19:03 > 0:19:08- Probably not because of the newborn baby.- The newborn baby, I see. OK.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11Very good. It's not really like Glastonbury, is it?

0:19:11 > 0:19:14I don't imagine many people turn up to Eurovision with

0:19:14 > 0:19:16babies sort of strapped to them.

0:19:16 > 0:19:17It is better than Glastonbury.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19LAUGHTER

0:19:19 > 0:19:22- It's over quicker.- Let's say it is different to Glastonbury.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25Yeah, there we go. OK, now, Ian, this board is all yours.

0:19:25 > 0:19:29- Talk us through it.- Top one, not going to go for that one,

0:19:29 > 0:19:30but that is prod.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33I have been spending ages trying to work out the next two down.

0:19:33 > 0:19:37Not a clue. And a relentless succession of people or things,

0:19:37 > 0:19:42I might have to go for it in the end, but I'm not 100% on it.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45Go on, I am going to go for a relentless succession

0:19:45 > 0:19:48of people or things and production.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52OK. Now, a relentless succession of people or things - a production,

0:19:52 > 0:19:55you are saying. Let's see if that is right. There is your red line.

0:19:55 > 0:19:56Production.

0:20:01 > 0:20:02Ian, I'm sorry.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer. And it scores you 100 points

0:20:05 > 0:20:09- and takes your total up to an unbeatable 178.- Sorry, Ian.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12Well done for going for it, though. It is a word you know.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15They are all words you know. It is... Do you know that one?

0:20:15 > 0:20:18- Well, I was going to say procession. But succession is in...- Procession.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20- Oh, it is procession, yeah. - Procession.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23Would have scored you 39 points as well. Would have seen you through.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25The top one prod - of course it wouldn't have seen you

0:20:25 > 0:20:28through cos it would have scored 73.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30A statement or action expressing

0:20:30 > 0:20:34disapproval or objection to something - protest.

0:20:34 > 0:20:3643 points. Also would have seen you through.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38And keep safe from harm or injury,

0:20:38 > 0:20:41another very big scorer - protect.

0:20:41 > 0:20:42Which would have scored of 87.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45So the best answer on the board - probability.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47Thank you very much. At the end of our first round,

0:20:47 > 0:20:50the pair we are sending home with a high score of 178...

0:20:50 > 0:20:53I'm sorry, Ian and Anisha, it is you. Lovely to have you back.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55But I am afraid it has been a very short return to Pointless.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58It has been lovely having you on the show. Thanks for playing.

0:20:58 > 0:20:59- Ian and Anisha.- Thank you.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03APPLAUSE

0:21:03 > 0:21:06But for the remaining three pairs, it is now time for Round Two.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12And so we are down to three pairs.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15At the end of this round, we'll have to say goodbye to another pair.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18Ben, hats off to you - propaganda, lovely low score.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20Joint low score, in fact, with Stu.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22But heroic work there, Stu.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24You really helped Jo out there.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27It is thanks to your low-scoring skills you are still here.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29And Kerry and Stewart, welcome to Round Two.

0:21:29 > 0:21:34Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category today for Round Two is...

0:21:36 > 0:21:39Formula One. Can you all decide in your pairs who is going first,

0:21:39 > 0:21:41who is going second?

0:21:41 > 0:21:43And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.

0:21:46 > 0:21:48OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:21:48 > 0:21:52We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...

0:21:57 > 0:21:59It's not that bad, is it?

0:21:59 > 0:22:012015 Formula One drivers. Richard.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04Yeah, we're looking for the names of any drivers who started

0:22:04 > 0:22:06the 2015 Formula One season, please.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09So any of the drivers who entered in the first race of the 2015

0:22:09 > 0:22:12- Formula One season. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:22:12 > 0:22:16Now then, Ben, we come to you first.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18OK, well, I don't actually watch Formula One.

0:22:18 > 0:22:22So I am going to have to go for probably the most obvious one

0:22:22 > 0:22:24that I know, because he's British.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26I'm going to have to go for Lewis Hamilton.

0:22:26 > 0:22:29A little buzz from the audience there. Let's see if that's right.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32And if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said Lewis Hamilton.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38Yeah, it's a few. That's a few. 88.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41APPLAUSE

0:22:41 > 0:22:46- Yeah, Lewis Hamilton, he is a British racing driver.- That's right.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49- Formula One driver.- He is quite good at it.- He is very good.

0:22:49 > 0:22:54- He is very fast.- Very fast. Very fast.- He is very good at driving.

0:22:54 > 0:22:55He is a very good driver.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58Thanks very much indeed. Now, Stewart.

0:22:58 > 0:23:04- Stewart. This, I'm guessing, isn't your dream round, is it?- No.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08So I shall go for another British guy who I think is still

0:23:08 > 0:23:11- driving and say Jenson Button. - Jenson Button, OK.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14Let's see how many of our 100 said Jenson Button.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19It's also right. And it scores less than Lewis. But not many less.

0:23:21 > 0:23:2374 for Jenson Button.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Just some great play here(!)

0:23:27 > 0:23:29- LAUGHTER - It's interesting.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31Sometimes with Formula One,

0:23:31 > 0:23:33it's one of those categories that sometimes you get a group of

0:23:33 > 0:23:36people who really know it and they get very, very low very quickly.

0:23:36 > 0:23:40- Yeah.- Today, not so much. - Not so much.- Not so much.- Now, Jo.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42- Hi.- Jo.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46LAUGHTER

0:23:46 > 0:23:49- Jo, do you follow Formula One at all?- Um...

0:23:49 > 0:23:54Gosh, I follow sport, but I guess a bit. But I am not too keen.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Enough to have some ideas?

0:23:56 > 0:23:57Well, it is going to

0:23:57 > 0:24:02be nice to see the line go down for once, actually, three questions in.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05I feel like I have got one that will actually make the board.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08This is great news, music to Richard's ears.

0:24:08 > 0:24:11I've got a couple of good ones, but I'm not going to gamble.

0:24:11 > 0:24:12I'm just going to go for Nico Rosberg.

0:24:12 > 0:24:13Nico Rosberg, says Jo.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Let's see if it's right,

0:24:15 > 0:24:18let's see how many of our 100 people said Nico Rosberg.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22It's right, taking you past the others.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25Leave them in your dust.

0:24:25 > 0:24:2628, well done.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28APPLAUSE

0:24:28 > 0:24:31That has got head-to-head written all over it, I'd say.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33- 28 for Nico Rosberg. - Well played, Jo.

0:24:33 > 0:24:36He lists his interests, Nico Rosberg, as chess,

0:24:36 > 0:24:39- backgammon and karaoke. - LAUGHTER

0:24:39 > 0:24:42- That is an evening out, isn't it? - Isn't it!- Yeah.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44Very cheap. Yeah, good.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46Good. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49Now, OK, we are halfway through. Let's look at those scores.

0:24:49 > 0:24:5028 the best score of that pass.

0:24:50 > 0:24:52Very well done, Jo and Stu.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54I think they are going to be good on that far podium.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Then up to 74, where we find Stewart and Kerry.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58Good luck with the next bit, Kerry.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01And then up to 88, where we find Ben and Allison.

0:25:01 > 0:25:05I think Allison, with all her gadgetry, she might surprise us.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Well, she certainly put herself playing second,

0:25:07 > 0:25:09so I'm guessing she knows something.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11She has got something up her sleeve, I'm sure.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Best of luck with that, Allison. We need a nice low score from you.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15We'll come back down the line now.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:25:20 > 0:25:21So now, Stu.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25I said I thought you had a good answer up there.

0:25:25 > 0:25:26And it looks like...

0:25:26 > 0:25:28You still look like you have a good answer.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30Come on, let's have it.

0:25:30 > 0:25:34Pressure! I'm not going to be too cocky.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37I've learnt from some of our mistakes in the first round.

0:25:37 > 0:25:41I am going to go for Felipe Massa.

0:25:41 > 0:25:44Felipe Massa, says Stu. Now, here is your red line.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47You've got a nice high...middle-ish red line.

0:25:47 > 0:25:48Felipe Massa. Let's see if it's right.

0:25:48 > 0:25:50Let's see how many people said it.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56It's right, and you are in the head-to-head.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58Very well done indeed.

0:25:58 > 0:25:59Still going down. 20 -

0:25:59 > 0:26:01lowest score of the round so far.

0:26:02 > 0:26:0348 is your total.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07You can just tell on that final podium,

0:26:07 > 0:26:09those two know better answers than the ones they've given.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12- But very well played, safely through.- Clever, good play.

0:26:12 > 0:26:16- Now, Kerry. Here is the moment.- Yes.

0:26:16 > 0:26:19You looked genuinely unhappy when we said this was the category.

0:26:19 > 0:26:23Well, Formula One maybe kind of ten years ago, I might be able

0:26:23 > 0:26:27to name some of the drivers, but recent drivers, absolutely no idea.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29- The two that I might have said have already gone.- OK.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32So I will either go for a driver who I know was driving a while ago

0:26:32 > 0:26:36and hope he is still driving or make up some ludicrous name.

0:26:36 > 0:26:37I know which I'd prefer.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39LAUGHTER

0:26:39 > 0:26:41Um...

0:26:41 > 0:26:43Oh.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46I'm going to go with somebody who I know who drove a while ago,

0:26:46 > 0:26:49probably isn't doing it now, but Eddie Irvine.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53That noise, the audience going, "Yes!"

0:26:53 > 0:26:55Or make up a really funny name.

0:26:55 > 0:26:58Eddie Irvine, OK. Well, listen, here is your red line.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00There's only one way to find out. It is quite low,

0:27:00 > 0:27:03but let's see if Eddie Irvine will get you over the line.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Sorry, Kerry,

0:27:08 > 0:27:10that scores you 100 points, takes you up to 174.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12You are not necessarily out of the game yet.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15- That is all in Allison's hands. Richard.- Sorry, Kerry.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18Still drives, but not in Formula One for a long time, I'm afraid.

0:27:18 > 0:27:22He just drives down to the park a bit, drives around.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, Allison.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27Allison, now we have the moment of truth.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29You only... You have to score 85 or less.

0:27:29 > 0:27:34If only those numbers 2015 hadn't been there and I could have

0:27:34 > 0:27:39gone further back, and lovely people like Niki Lauda and James Hunt...

0:27:39 > 0:27:42But no, alas.

0:27:42 > 0:27:48I can't imagine why the name Nelson Piquet comes into my head,

0:27:48 > 0:27:50but that is the only thing I have offer.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53Nelson Piquet. Well, there was a murmur amongst the audience.

0:27:53 > 0:27:55Again, that could mean one of two things.

0:27:55 > 0:27:58LAUGHTER But here is your red line.

0:27:58 > 0:28:01Nelson Piquet has to get you below that if you are going

0:28:01 > 0:28:04to go through to the head-to-head. Best of luck, Allison.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06How many people said Nelson Piquet? Is it right?

0:28:10 > 0:28:12No. Bad luck, Allison.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14Good guess, though.

0:28:14 > 0:28:17But I'm afraid that is incorrect and scores you 100.

0:28:17 > 0:28:20This is music to Kerry and Stewart's ears. But unfortunate.

0:28:20 > 0:28:21Sorry, Allison.

0:28:21 > 0:28:24Nelson Piquet was a wonderful Formula One driver in the '80s.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27Brazilian. And Nelson Piquet Junior is also driver,

0:28:27 > 0:28:29but not in Formula One in 2015, I'm afraid.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31Let's take a look at some of the low answers.

0:28:31 > 0:28:33No pointless answers at all, which is

0:28:33 > 0:28:34very impressive work from our 100.

0:28:34 > 0:28:36So I will go down in order.

0:28:36 > 0:28:38All of these would've scored single figures.

0:28:38 > 0:28:417 for Max Verstappen. 6 for Sergio Perez.

0:28:41 > 0:28:436 for Daniel Ricciardo.

0:28:43 > 0:28:476 for Romain Grosjean. 6 also for Valtteri Bottas.

0:28:47 > 0:28:49You'd have got 5 for Pastor Maldonado.

0:28:49 > 0:28:504 for Nico Hulkenberg.

0:28:50 > 0:28:523 for Felipe Nasr. 2 for Will Stevens,

0:28:52 > 0:28:54another British driver who started the 2015 season.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56And 1 point is the best you can do.

0:28:56 > 0:28:58There are three answers that scored 1 point -

0:28:58 > 0:29:02Marcus Ericsson, Carlos Sainz and Roberto Merhi.

0:29:02 > 0:29:05Well done if you said any of those. Let's take a look at the top three.

0:29:05 > 0:29:07There are some familiar names on this.

0:29:10 > 0:29:11And then we've heard these two.

0:29:15 > 0:29:17Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:29:17 > 0:29:20So at the end of our second round, the pair who are heading home

0:29:20 > 0:29:21with a high score of 188...

0:29:21 > 0:29:24I'm so sorry, Allison and Ben, it is you. We have to say goodbye.

0:29:24 > 0:29:28But it has been wonderful having you on the show. Thank you so much.

0:29:28 > 0:29:30Great answers from you across the two shows.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32But, yeah, great contestants. Thanks so much.

0:29:32 > 0:29:33Thank you.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36APPLAUSE

0:29:36 > 0:29:39For the remaining two pairs, it is now time for our head-to-head.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46Congratulations, Jo and Stu, Kerry and Stewart.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48You are now one step closer to the final

0:29:48 > 0:29:53and a chance to play for our jackpot, which stands still at £1,000.

0:29:53 > 0:29:54Well, you know what the story is.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56This is where you start playing as teams.

0:29:56 > 0:30:00First pair to win two questions gets a chance to play for that jackpot.

0:30:00 > 0:30:03Well, Jo and Stu, low-scoring pair all the way through.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05You were Round One departers last time.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08Ho-ho! How the tables have turned.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11Stu, individually, our lowest scorer in each round.

0:30:11 > 0:30:13So, Kerry and Stewart, that is what you are up against.

0:30:13 > 0:30:16And a slightly lucky break there.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18- At the end. Yeah.- Slightly. - Nelson Piquet...

0:30:18 > 0:30:22You owe him one is all I am saying. Best of luck to both pairs.

0:30:22 > 0:30:23Let's play the head-to-head.

0:30:30 > 0:30:33OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...

0:30:36 > 0:30:38Alliterative band names, Richard.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40We will show you five images now of bands or groups that have

0:30:40 > 0:30:41alliterative names.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44Can you name the most obscure? Good luck.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47OK, let's reveal our five bands. And here they come.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10There we go. Five bands with alliterative names.

0:31:10 > 0:31:13Jo and Stu, you have been our lowest scorers throughout the show,

0:31:13 > 0:31:14so you will go first.

0:31:14 > 0:31:15Feel free to confer.

0:31:15 > 0:31:18THEY WHISPER

0:31:22 > 0:31:24We are going to go for D.

0:31:24 > 0:31:26We are going to say Shakespeares Sister.

0:31:26 > 0:31:29Shakespeares Sister, say Jo and Stu.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31Now then, Kerry and Stewart, talk us through the board.

0:31:31 > 0:31:35So A is Take That.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37B we can't get.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39C is Culture Club.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41And E is Beastie Boys.

0:31:41 > 0:31:43So I think we are going to have

0:31:43 > 0:31:45to go with E, Beastie Boys.

0:31:45 > 0:31:47OK, Beastie Boys.

0:31:47 > 0:31:49So we have Shakespeares Sister versus Beastie Boys.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52Jo and Stu said Shakespeares Sister. Let's see if it's right.

0:31:52 > 0:31:53Let's see how many people said it.

0:31:55 > 0:31:57Good answer for D.

0:32:00 > 0:32:01Oh, 32.

0:32:01 > 0:32:05APPLAUSE

0:32:05 > 0:32:07Surprisingly high score, actually,

0:32:07 > 0:32:09for Shakespeares Sister there, but 32.

0:32:09 > 0:32:13I suppose it is a very recognisable look, that, isn't it?

0:32:13 > 0:32:17Now, Kerry and Stewart meanwhile have gone for the Beastie Boys for E.

0:32:17 > 0:32:18Let's see if that is right.

0:32:18 > 0:32:21Let's see how many people said the Beastie Boys.

0:32:23 > 0:32:25It's right.

0:32:25 > 0:32:26It has got to beat 32.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30Which it has. Look at that,

0:32:30 > 0:32:32Beastie Boys, surprise result there.

0:32:33 > 0:32:36Beastie Boys scoring 15, which means, Kerry and Stewart,

0:32:36 > 0:32:37you have broken it.

0:32:37 > 0:32:40So after one question, you are up 1-nil.

0:32:40 > 0:32:41Yeah, you were forced into it,

0:32:41 > 0:32:43but it was the best one to go for in the end.

0:32:43 > 0:32:46There is an answer up there that would have beaten Beastie Boys.

0:32:46 > 0:32:48Take That wouldn't have beaten Beastie Boys,

0:32:48 > 0:32:50but obviously that is them in A.

0:32:52 > 0:32:55C, let's go to C. That is Culture Club, of course.

0:32:58 > 0:33:02- Very well done anyone at home who said B.- Franz Ferdinand.

0:33:02 > 0:33:04Franz Ferdinand.

0:33:05 > 0:33:06Well done if you said that at home.

0:33:06 > 0:33:08Here comes your second question. Now then,

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Jo and Stu, you have to break back here.

0:33:10 > 0:33:12That is the only way you can stay in the game.

0:33:12 > 0:33:16But Kerry and Stewart get to answer first. Best of luck. It concerns...

0:33:19 > 0:33:21LAUGHTER Popular sandwich fillings. Richard.

0:33:21 > 0:33:24We're going to show you five anagrams now

0:33:24 > 0:33:25of popular sandwich fillings.

0:33:25 > 0:33:28Can you unscramble the most obscure of these?

0:33:28 > 0:33:31OK, let's reveal our five popular sandwich fillings, and here they are.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42I'll read those one last time.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51Kerry and Stewart, you will go first.

0:33:51 > 0:33:55THEY WHISPER

0:33:55 > 0:33:57- Oh, is it?- Mm-hm.

0:33:57 > 0:33:58We will just have to go for that.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01There is only one we can figure out, I think it is

0:34:01 > 0:34:05probably the easiest, which is incite raccoon honk.

0:34:05 > 0:34:06Coronation chicken.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09Coronation chicken, say Kerry and Stewart.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11Now, Jo and Stu, what are you going to go for?

0:34:15 > 0:34:20We are going to go for number four, cheese and pickle.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22Cheese and pickle. Chance deli peeks.

0:34:22 > 0:34:25So, we have coronation chicken and we have cheese and pickle.

0:34:25 > 0:34:28In the order they were given, Kerry and Stewart said coronation

0:34:28 > 0:34:31chicken for incite raccoon honk. Let's see if that's right.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33How many people said coronation chicken?

0:34:36 > 0:34:38It's right.

0:34:41 > 0:34:44- That's low, look at that. - 5! Oh, my God!

0:34:49 > 0:34:51There we go. 5 for coronation chicken.

0:34:51 > 0:34:56Jo and Stu, meanwhile, said cheese and pickle for chance deli peeks.

0:34:56 > 0:34:59Let's see if that is right. How many people said cheese and pickle?

0:35:05 > 0:35:06This has to go... Oh.

0:35:06 > 0:35:08Ooooh... 44.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11APPLAUSE

0:35:12 > 0:35:1644, that seems really harsh, but there we are. 44.

0:35:16 > 0:35:19Which means, Kerry and Stewart, after only two questions,

0:35:19 > 0:35:21you are through to the final 2-nil.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23Yes, if you could only work out one of them,

0:35:23 > 0:35:24it was a good one to work out.

0:35:24 > 0:35:26There is only one answer that would have beaten it -

0:35:26 > 0:35:28the top one. I will leave that for a moment.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30The second one? Do you know the second one?

0:35:30 > 0:35:32- Ham and mustard.- Ham and mustard.

0:35:33 > 0:35:34The bottom one?

0:35:34 > 0:35:36It is the most popular sandwich filling in Britain,

0:35:36 > 0:35:39according to a 2013 poll, the bottom one.

0:35:39 > 0:35:40- Egg mayonnaise.- Oh, yes!

0:35:42 > 0:35:46And the top one is the best answer on the board - 2 points.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48It is a fish and a vegetable.

0:35:48 > 0:35:51- Oh, yes! Tuna and sweetcorn, there we go.- Tuna and sweetcorn.

0:35:51 > 0:35:522 points if you said that.

0:35:52 > 0:35:53There we go.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56Lovely. Thanks very much. Oh, actually, really lovely. Mm!

0:35:56 > 0:35:59LAUGHTER Thank you very much.

0:35:59 > 0:36:03So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round, Jo and Stu.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05Two surprising results there, I have to say.

0:36:05 > 0:36:07You have been incredibly unlucky there.

0:36:07 > 0:36:09I mean, really good answering across the show today,

0:36:09 > 0:36:12so I'm very sorry to say goodbye to you now.

0:36:12 > 0:36:14But brilliant contestants. Jo and Stu.

0:36:17 > 0:36:21But for Kerry and Stewart, it is now time for our Pointless final.

0:36:25 > 0:36:27Kerry and Stewart, many congratulations.

0:36:27 > 0:36:29You have seen off all the competition with comparative ease,

0:36:29 > 0:36:31I thought, in that last round.

0:36:31 > 0:36:35And have won our coveted Pointless trophy, so very well done.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:36:42 > 0:36:46At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands still at £1,000.

0:36:46 > 0:36:50There we are. Well, you weathered Round Two.

0:36:50 > 0:36:52That wasn't easy.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54But you have done pretty well other than that.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57Two really good answers in that head-to-head round.

0:36:57 > 0:37:00- What do you want to see come up in this last...?- Film?

0:37:00 > 0:37:02LAUGHTER

0:37:02 > 0:37:05- Theatre, maybe.- Pop music.- Yeah.

0:37:05 > 0:37:08OK. Well, as you know, you get to choose your category from the four

0:37:08 > 0:37:11on the board. Let's see what is up there today.

0:37:20 > 0:37:25- Um... Do we go cult...?- It is going to have to be. Cult indie films.- OK.

0:37:25 > 0:37:27- Richard.- OK, we're looking for the name of any actor credited

0:37:27 > 0:37:31in appearing in any of the following films, please, according to IMDb.

0:37:31 > 0:37:36We are looking for anyone credited for Lost In Translation, 2003.

0:37:36 > 0:37:41Anyone who acted in The Royal Tenenbaums, 2001.

0:37:41 > 0:37:46Or anyone who acted in Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, 2004.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48Perfect category for some people. Hope it is for you.

0:37:48 > 0:37:49Very best of luck.

0:37:49 > 0:37:51OK, now, as always,

0:37:51 > 0:37:53you have a minute to come up with three answers.

0:37:53 > 0:37:56All you need to win that jackpot is for just one of them to be pointless.

0:37:56 > 0:38:00- Are you ready?- Yeah.- OK. Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.

0:38:00 > 0:38:01There they are. Your time starts now.

0:38:01 > 0:38:05- Lost In Translation, I only know the obvious.- Bill Murray and...

0:38:05 > 0:38:07- Yep.- Scarlett Johansson, so forget that.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09Eternal Sunshine, is that Kirsten Dunst?

0:38:09 > 0:38:11- Kirsten Dunst, I was thinking that. - Is it Mark Ruffalo that

0:38:11 > 0:38:13- she is dancing around the room with? - Oh, yeah!

0:38:13 > 0:38:15Mark Ruffalo, that sounds good.

0:38:15 > 0:38:17And the other... Obviously, Kate Winslet and Jim Carrey,

0:38:17 > 0:38:21- too big. Oh, Elijah Wood. Elijah Wood is in it.- In what?

0:38:21 > 0:38:25Eternal Sunshine. Elijah Wood, Kirsten Dunst.

0:38:25 > 0:38:28Royal Tenenbaums, Gene Hackman.

0:38:28 > 0:38:30Gwyneth Paltrow.

0:38:30 > 0:38:35- And Anjelica Huston.- All right.

0:38:35 > 0:38:36Uh...

0:38:36 > 0:38:38Uh...

0:38:38 > 0:38:39Um...

0:38:39 > 0:38:44Who...who...who has the dream factory in Eternal Sunshine?

0:38:44 > 0:38:47Ed Harris? No, that's...

0:38:47 > 0:38:49- Um...- Um...

0:38:49 > 0:38:52- Anjelica Huston might be good. - Ten seconds left.

0:38:52 > 0:38:56- So Anjelica Huston, Kirsten Dunst, Elijah Wood?- Elijah Wood.

0:38:56 > 0:38:58- Who was the other one? - Mark Ruffalo.- Mark Ruffalo.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01I don't think that is right.

0:39:01 > 0:39:04- I think everyone will remember those.- You think so?- I'm so sorry.

0:39:04 > 0:39:06What three answers are you going to go for?

0:39:06 > 0:39:11- So Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind - Kirsten Dunst.- Kirsten Dunst.

0:39:11 > 0:39:13- Elijah Wood? - Elijah Wood.- Elijah Wood.

0:39:13 > 0:39:15And then do you want to go for Mark Ruffalo or Anjelica Huston?

0:39:15 > 0:39:18Let's go Anjelica Huston and Royal Tenenbaums.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20- Yes, Anjelica Huston. - Anjelica Huston.

0:39:20 > 0:39:22Of those three, which is your best shot?

0:39:22 > 0:39:25They like this in a row where we are right.

0:39:25 > 0:39:26So let's go Elijah Wood.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29Elijah Wood, we will put him last. Least likely to be pointless?

0:39:29 > 0:39:32- Anjelica Huston. - Anjelica Huston we will put first.

0:39:32 > 0:39:34OK, well, let's pop those answers up on the board in that order then.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36And here they are.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43Three very good answers up there on the board.

0:39:43 > 0:39:46Let's hope one of them is pointless and wins that jackpot for you.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49What would you do with your £1,000, Kerry?

0:39:49 > 0:39:53I think travelling, possibly either a weekend break in Venice.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56Or I've always fancied Dubrovnik as well,

0:39:56 > 0:39:58- so one of those two. - Oh, it's beautiful.

0:39:58 > 0:40:00- Yeah. Preferably.- Stewart?

0:40:00 > 0:40:02Well, I'd be travelling with Kerry

0:40:02 > 0:40:05and I think we'd like to donate some to a cancer charity that

0:40:05 > 0:40:07recently took care of my mother very beautifully.

0:40:07 > 0:40:09We'd like to give some back to them as well.

0:40:09 > 0:40:11OK, very good. Your first answer was Anjelica Huston.

0:40:11 > 0:40:14In this case, we were looking at The Royal Tenenbaums,

0:40:14 > 0:40:17the cast members of that. If it is pointless, it wins you £1,000.

0:40:17 > 0:40:18How many people said Anjelica Huston?

0:40:18 > 0:40:21Please, can it be pointless?

0:40:23 > 0:40:24It's right.

0:40:24 > 0:40:27Always a useful thing in these circumstances.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29Down it goes through the 40s, through the 30s,

0:40:29 > 0:40:31into the 20s. Still going down.

0:40:31 > 0:40:32Are we going to go to single figures?

0:40:32 > 0:40:34Yes, we are. Still going down.

0:40:34 > 0:40:366, there we go.

0:40:36 > 0:40:406 for Anjelica Huston. A great answer. A lovely low score.

0:40:40 > 0:40:42Alas, not a pointless answer,

0:40:42 > 0:40:45which means you only have two more shots at today's jackpot.

0:40:45 > 0:40:48Your second of three answers was Kirsten Dunst.

0:40:48 > 0:40:50In this case, we were looking for cast members of

0:40:50 > 0:40:52Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55It has to be right and it has to be pointless for you to win.

0:40:55 > 0:40:58So for £1,000, Let's see how many people said Kirsten Dunst.

0:41:00 > 0:41:02It's right.

0:41:02 > 0:41:05Well, Anjelica Huston, your least confident answer,

0:41:05 > 0:41:06took us down to 6.

0:41:06 > 0:41:09Kirsten Dunst takes us down through the teens,

0:41:09 > 0:41:11into single figures. Passes 6.

0:41:11 > 0:41:12Still going down...

0:41:12 > 0:41:14- You've done it!- Yes! - Very well done!

0:41:16 > 0:41:21Well done! That's brilliant. Absolutely fantastic.

0:41:21 > 0:41:22Superb.

0:41:22 > 0:41:26APPLAUSE

0:41:26 > 0:41:29Very well done. Congratulations. Kirsten Dunst, a pointless answer,

0:41:29 > 0:41:31which means you take home that jackpot of £1,000.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33You can go to Venice.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36You can contribute to the cancer charity.

0:41:36 > 0:41:38Very, very well played. Great end to the show.

0:41:38 > 0:41:41Terrific, very well played. Also the first British film-makers

0:41:41 > 0:41:43to make any money out of an indie film.

0:41:43 > 0:41:46- LAUGHTER - Congratulations.

0:41:46 > 0:41:48Elijah Wood would have scored you three points.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50Three points. So Kirsten Dunst, a great answer.

0:41:50 > 0:41:53Now let's look at the pointless answers in the different categories.

0:41:53 > 0:41:55You said virtually every single scoring answer.

0:41:55 > 0:41:56You obviously know these films.

0:41:56 > 0:41:58We'll start with Lost In Translation.

0:42:05 > 0:42:08The only scorers there were Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson.

0:42:08 > 0:42:09As you suspected.

0:42:09 > 0:42:13On to Royal Tenenbaums, which is a great film if you haven't seen it.

0:42:18 > 0:42:21Everyone in that film apart from Gene Hackman, Ben Stiller,

0:42:21 > 0:42:24Gwyneth Paltrow and Anjelica Huston, oh, and Luke Wilson and Bill Murray.

0:42:24 > 0:42:27Those were the only scoring answers in that one.

0:42:27 > 0:42:31And Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind.

0:42:34 > 0:42:38The only scorers there - Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Elijah Wood,

0:42:38 > 0:42:40of course, Mark Ruffalo and Tom Wilkinson.

0:42:40 > 0:42:42So very, very well played in the studio.

0:42:42 > 0:42:45Very well done at home if you got one of those answers as well.

0:42:45 > 0:42:47Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:42:47 > 0:42:50Thanks once again to our winning players, Kerry and Stewart,

0:42:50 > 0:42:52who go away with today's jackpot of £1,000.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54Thank you.

0:42:54 > 0:42:56APPLAUSE

0:42:56 > 0:42:59Join us next time when we will be putting more obscure knowledge

0:42:59 > 0:43:00to the test on Pointless.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02- Meanwhile, it is goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:02 > 0:43:04And it is goodbye from me. Goodbye.
