0:00:15 > 0:00:18APPLAUSE
0:00:20 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:25 > 0:00:28the show where we are always striving to find the most obscure answers.
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Let's meet today's players.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31APPLAUSE
0:00:33 > 0:00:35And couple number one.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Hi, my name is Helen, I'm from Tamworth in Staffordshire.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40And this is my little sister, Pippa, from Burton-on-Trent.
0:00:40 > 0:00:41Couple number two.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43Hi, I'm Linda, I'm from Bootle originally,
0:00:43 > 0:00:45and this is my partner, Barrie, from Bolton.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48- Couple number three. - Hi, I'm Dave, from Welling in Kent,
0:00:48 > 0:00:50and this is my best buddy Stuart, from Fleet in Hampshire.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53- And finally, couple number four. - Hello, I'm Sam, I'm from Kent.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55This is my girlfriend, Maddy, and she's from London.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57And these are today's contestants.
0:00:57 > 0:00:58APPLAUSE
0:00:58 > 0:01:00Well, thanks very much to all of you.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03We'll find out more about you throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce -
0:01:06 > 0:01:09now he's sitting uncomfortably, we can begin.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:11 > 0:01:12Hiya. Hey, everybody.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15APPLAUSE
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- Afternoon to you.- And to you. - What a fun show we had last time.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- Wasn't it?- Really, really good fun.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22And we've got only one returning pair from that show,
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Barrie from Bolton and Linda from Bootle. They're on podium two.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27We didn't see much of them, but they made themselves known
0:01:27 > 0:01:29in the one round they were with us.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31I don't think Barrie stopped talking
0:01:31 > 0:01:33and I don't think Linda stopped laughing
0:01:33 > 0:01:34at any point during that first round.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36Something's happened since last time,
0:01:36 > 0:01:39because Linda has now announced herself as "originally from Bootle".
0:01:39 > 0:01:41That's progress.
0:01:41 > 0:01:42That is interesting.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45So you think between the last show and this one
0:01:45 > 0:01:47she's moved in with Barrie from Bolton?
0:01:47 > 0:01:50I'm just saying they might have started the conversation.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53That's very interesting. We'll find out, won't we?
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Something is up. Welcome to our three new pairs as well.
0:01:57 > 0:01:58It's going to be a long recording
0:01:58 > 0:02:01if any of you are anything like the people on podium two.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Well, we shall see.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Now, Andy and Jo didn't win the jackpot last time,
0:02:09 > 0:02:11so we add another £1,000 to that.
0:02:11 > 0:02:16So today's jackpot starts off an astonishing £5,250.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19You see, there we are. APPLAUSE
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28Now, all you have to remember
0:02:28 > 0:02:31is that the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:31 > 0:02:33will be eliminated -
0:02:33 > 0:02:35that's it, that's all we have to know.
0:02:35 > 0:02:39Our first category this afternoon is...
0:02:40 > 0:02:43International Football. Can you all decide in your pairs
0:02:43 > 0:02:45who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:02:45 > 0:02:49And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:02:53 > 0:02:58We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:02:58 > 0:03:02Euro 2016 teams as they could.
0:03:02 > 0:03:03Euro 2016 teams.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05We're looking for the name of any team
0:03:05 > 0:03:07who took part in the qualifying stages
0:03:07 > 0:03:09for the Euro 2016 tournament, please.
0:03:09 > 0:03:10So any football team who took part
0:03:10 > 0:03:12in the qualifying for that tournament, please.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16The one country we won't allow is France, cos they're the host of the tournament,
0:03:16 > 0:03:18so they didn't take part in the qualifying.
0:03:18 > 0:03:19Thanks very much, Richard.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23Now, Pippa, a very, very warm welcome to you. Here from Burton-on-Trent.
0:03:23 > 0:03:24Yes, yes. Beer country.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Beer country. Exactly. What do you do, Pippa?
0:03:27 > 0:03:30I'm what is known as an operational security manager.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Which means I get to shout at people a lot about what they do wrong.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35That's fantastic. In what sort of arena do you shout at people
0:03:35 > 0:03:38- about things they're doing wrong? - Information security.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40- I see.- Passwords, restricted information, stuff like that.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43I'm just going to ask your sister something.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Is this something Pippa's always liked doing?
0:03:45 > 0:03:48Yeah, she's always very bossy. She usually wears all black
0:03:48 > 0:03:51so she's quite suited to being someone who's in charge.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54OK. Very good. Pippa, what are your hobbies,
0:03:54 > 0:03:55outside of shouting at people?
0:03:55 > 0:03:57- Football.- Mm.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Dobermans. And bingo.
0:03:59 > 0:04:00Not necessarily in that order.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Football, Dobermans and bingo.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Now, football - look at this.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07Erm, yes. I'm going to play very, very safe,
0:04:07 > 0:04:10and I'm going to go Italy.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Italy, says Pippa. Italy.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Let's see how many of our 100 people said Italy.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18It's right.
0:04:21 > 0:04:2244.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24APPLAUSE
0:04:24 > 0:04:2544 for Italy. Not bad.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Gets the show off to a good start. Thank you, Richard.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Yeah, finalists in 2012, Italy.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34A pretty big score, but it's tough on that first podium, I have to say.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37The good news is Round Two is about Dobermans and Round Three is about bingo, so...
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Barrie, welcome back.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- Hiya.- Now, what was it? It was our Rogers round last time.
0:04:44 > 0:04:45We had a board of Rogers.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47LINDA CACKLES There we go, that's Linda gone!
0:04:47 > 0:04:51Yep. Good. You gave us Roger Bannister.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Linda gave us... Oh, hang on, Roger Savage,
0:04:54 > 0:04:56instead of Roger De Courcey.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59But still, anyway, Barrie, it's lovely to have you here.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Remind us what you do, Barrie.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04- Retired.- You're retired. In Bolton.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07- Yeah.- What's the development between you and Linda?
0:05:07 > 0:05:10Something very exciting's happened. She's formerly from Bootle.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Did you pick up on that one?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14She's half a week at my place now.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17LAUGHTER Very good!
0:05:19 > 0:05:24Barrie, what are you going to go for on Euro 2016 qualifiers?
0:05:24 > 0:05:27I could go safe. I'm tempted to try...
0:05:27 > 0:05:30I don't know, I might get 100, you see.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33I'll go for Spain, I'll play it safe first time.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35OK. Spain, says Barrie.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Let's see how many of our 100 said Spain.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42It's right. 44's our only score so far.
0:05:42 > 0:05:4459 for Spain.
0:05:44 > 0:05:45APPLAUSE
0:05:49 > 0:05:52Three-time winners, defending champions, Spain.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55- Not going too obscure thus far, are we?- No, no.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56Not so much.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58No. Until now, Stuart.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Welcome to Pointless, good to have you here.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03- What do you do, Stuart?- I'm retired now, Xander, I'm pleased to say.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05- What did you do? - For most of my career
0:06:05 > 0:06:07I worked for a large multinational company,
0:06:07 > 0:06:10where I met this reprobate here, in their treasury department.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13What do you do now? What fills your time?
0:06:13 > 0:06:14What fills my time? Erm...
0:06:14 > 0:06:17I do family history research.
0:06:17 > 0:06:18I can't trace my ancestry
0:06:18 > 0:06:21back to William the Conqueror, unfortunately,
0:06:21 > 0:06:22but, you know...
0:06:22 > 0:06:24- How far have you got? - I've got back to the 1600s.
0:06:24 > 0:06:29- That's exciting. Whereabouts? - Wiltshire and Essex.- Very good.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Do you go round churchyards and things like that?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34We have been to some churchyards. It was quite embarrassing,
0:06:34 > 0:06:37we went to one churchyard and my then-ten-year-old son
0:06:37 > 0:06:39actually found the graveyard we were looking for,
0:06:39 > 0:06:42whereas we'd looked everywhere else and he said, "Oh, here it is, Dad!"
0:06:42 > 0:06:45Clever. Now, Stuart, what are you going to go for?
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- We've had some quite high scores so far.- Yeah.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51I'm going to go for the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52ALEXANDER CHUCKLES
0:06:52 > 0:06:54The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02It's right. Well, 59's our highest score, which you pass.
0:07:02 > 0:07:0444, our low score, which you pass.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia -
0:07:06 > 0:07:07down to 4!
0:07:07 > 0:07:10There we are, Stuart. Well done.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12That's more like it. 4.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Well played, Stuart. That's the Pointless we know and love!
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Macedonia. Never qualified for the finals.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Maddy, welcome.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24- Hello.- Great to have you here. What do you do, Maddy?
0:07:24 > 0:07:28I'm a student at the University of Leeds, I'm studying French there.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30- Which year are you in?- Just second.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32So you're about to do your year out, are you, next year?
0:07:32 > 0:07:35- Yeah, going to Versailles to teach in a primary school.- How nice.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- Language assistant there. - Oh, that's going to be heaven.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40OK. So, Maddy, what are you going to go for?
0:07:40 > 0:07:45Right. So, I think I'll play it fairly safe, not to show up Sam.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48So I think I will go for Belgium.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50Belgium, says Maddy.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53OK. Belgium. Let's see how many of our 100 said Belgium.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Well, it's not bad. Look at that. 23, Maddy.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Well done, Maddy. Belgium. A lot of UK supporters' second team.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15They're absolutely stuffed full of Premier League stars, the Belgians.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Thanks very much. Halfway through the round.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Let's take a look at those scores. 4 - well done, Stuart.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Stuart and Dave looking very strong at this point.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24Then up to 23, Maddy and Sam - likewise, on that far podium.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Then up to 44 - Pippa and Helen, well done.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29And then up to 59, Barrie and Linda.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Linda, this is not your last round,
0:08:32 > 0:08:35so we really need a lovely low-scoring answer from you, Linda.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Get thinking now. Fingers crossed.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39We're going to come back down the line now.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Can the second players please step up to the podium.
0:08:43 > 0:08:47Sam, a warm Pointless welcome to you. What do you do, Sam?
0:08:47 > 0:08:50- I'm also a student at the University of Leeds.- What about that?
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- That's how you and Maddy met. - It is, yeah.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- How early on in your careers did your paths cross?- Quite early.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57We actually stayed at the same halls, halls of residence.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59- She was only a couple of floors above me.- Very good.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- What are you studying?- I study civil engineering.- Excellent.
0:09:02 > 0:09:06So those two floors above - no problem at all to an engineer.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09- Absolutely no problem. - What are your hobbies, Sam?
0:09:09 > 0:09:10I enjoy sport - luckily enough.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13- I also used to enjoy debating - used to.- Oh, used to - don't any more?
0:09:13 > 0:09:16"Used to" being the operative word, after a bit of a mishap
0:09:16 > 0:09:17in a national debate.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19I made up a word.
0:09:19 > 0:09:20What was the word?
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Discompare.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23- Discompare?- Yes.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25As in, I work with a lot of comperes,
0:09:25 > 0:09:27but "dis compere" is the best?
0:09:27 > 0:09:29LAUGHTER
0:09:29 > 0:09:31I think that's all right.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33APPLAUSE
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Sam, now, listen, you're on 23.
0:09:37 > 0:09:41The highest scorers at the moment are Linda and Barrie on 59.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44If you can score 35 or less, you're through.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48OK. I'm going to go for a team that's not actually in Europe,
0:09:48 > 0:09:51but I know they do the qualifying for Euro 2016,
0:09:51 > 0:09:52and that's Israel.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Israel, says Sam.
0:09:54 > 0:09:55Here is your red line.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57If you can get below that red line with Israel,
0:09:57 > 0:09:58you're through to Round Two.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Let's see how many people said Israel.
0:10:02 > 0:10:03It's right.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07You're through.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11That's a very, very good score. Well done.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Equalling the expertise of Stuart there on podium three,
0:10:14 > 0:10:16taking your total up to 27.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20Great answer, Sam. Another team who've never qualified the finals.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23- But, yeah, they treat the Euros like they treat the Eurovision Song Contest.- Yeah.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Israel. They welcome them in.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27There we go. Thanks very much, Richard.
0:10:27 > 0:10:31- Dave! Very warm welcome to you. - Hello there.- What do you do, Dave?
0:10:31 > 0:10:33- I'm also retired.- Retired from what?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35From portfolio management.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38I was in the investment world. I retired 18 months ago.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41- And how have the 18 months been? - Good, yes. Very good.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43I find myself getting various hobbies.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Have you taken up hobbies you'd never imagined?
0:10:46 > 0:10:48I've got four dogs, so I'm doing quite a lot of dog-showing.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51- I see.- We've got as far as Crufts with one of our dogs.- Have you?
0:10:51 > 0:10:55- What kind of dog is it? - Finnish Lapphund.- Aw.- Aw.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57- Beautiful.- No idea what a Finnish...
0:10:58 > 0:11:02- Think woolly sheepdog and you wouldn't be far wrong.- Very good.
0:11:02 > 0:11:03Yeah. So I'm involved in that.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05I've also got involved in a rock music club
0:11:05 > 0:11:07called the Wrinkly Rockers Club.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09And we...
0:11:09 > 0:11:12We're a bunch of guys who formed a club to go to gigs,
0:11:12 > 0:11:16and we're also just starting to get into the production side
0:11:16 > 0:11:21for the club to help young bands around the southeast London area.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Utterly terrifying. OK, Dave... LAUGHTER
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Linda and Barrie are on 59 -
0:11:26 > 0:11:29they're still our highest scorers, I'm sorry to say, at this stage.
0:11:29 > 0:11:3154 or less is what we need from you.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35Well, my friend here has got us off to a very good start,
0:11:35 > 0:11:38so I'm going to stay in the same part of Europe and say Slovenia.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Slovenia, says Dave. Here's your red line.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43If you can get below that with Slovenia,
0:11:43 > 0:11:45you're into our second round.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Let's see how many of our 100 said Slovenia.
0:11:53 > 0:11:54Very well done indeed, Dave.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Good answer. And through you go.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Down it goes to 10. Very well done. 14.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02The lowest total of the round, I might add.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Well played, Dave. They qualified once for the finals in 2000.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09- They look pretty dangerous, don't they, on podium three?- They do.
0:12:09 > 0:12:10They do. Yeah.
0:12:10 > 0:12:15Now, Linda, we absolutely require a low score from you, Linda.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18Remind us what you like getting up to, Linda.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22Well, when I'm not at work I do small films with my grandson.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25He's done them for his A-levels,
0:12:25 > 0:12:29so I'm on YouTube at the moment on one of the small films.
0:12:29 > 0:12:30- Do you star in them?- Yes.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33The first one I didn't have a speaking part, because I died.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35SHE LAUGHS
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Fewer lines to learn, Linda. That's good.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42And then the second one, I played Norman Bates' mother
0:12:42 > 0:12:44when she was alive.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46HE LAUGHS
0:12:46 > 0:12:49He's not giving you the best parts, Linda.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52I scared him. I scared him a lot.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55That's wonderful. What fun. How many films have you made?
0:12:55 > 0:12:57I've made the two with my grandson so far,
0:12:57 > 0:12:59but I've been very lucky, really,
0:12:59 > 0:13:02I've been on a few television shows in the past,
0:13:02 > 0:13:05and I've met some fantastic people, you know.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08And I've met two more lovely people today, yourself and Richard.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Wonderful. Well, thank you, Linda - she's going through.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13LAUGHTER
0:13:13 > 0:13:15There's no red line for you, Linda,
0:13:15 > 0:13:18but we need a lovely low score.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20So I can't give you a target, it just has to be low.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Well, there's three already gone that I did know,
0:13:23 > 0:13:25so all I can do is say Uruguay.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28OK. Uruguay, says Linda.
0:13:28 > 0:13:33OK, no red line, but let's see how many of our 100 said Uruguay.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Oh, Linda, I'm sorry. It begins with "euro".
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Erm... I'm sorry, that scores 100 points, that's an incorrect answer.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50I'm so sorry. Takes your total up to 159.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Linda, you have been absolutely brilliant fun
0:13:52 > 0:13:53on both shows, I have to say.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55But I can confidently predict
0:13:55 > 0:13:58that you giving the answer Uruguay to teams playing in Euro 2016
0:13:58 > 0:14:00will also appear on YouTube.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02LAUGHTER
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Oh, dear.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Now then, Helen, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12- Thank you.- What do you do, Helen?
0:14:12 > 0:14:14I work in IT as well, same as Pippa,
0:14:14 > 0:14:17but I do service management, and doing improvement
0:14:17 > 0:14:19of the way technology is delivered for customers.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21I see. And what are your hobbies?
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Mainly house-renovating, I really enjoy doing that.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26And I spend a lot of time in the gym as well.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30Do you mean house-renovating as in the house you live in you renovate,
0:14:30 > 0:14:31or you take on projects?
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Yeah, I tend to take on the worst possible houses
0:14:34 > 0:14:36that look like they should be knocked down
0:14:36 > 0:14:40and then I fall in love with them and make them look beautiful again.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42- That's incredibly satisfying, isn't it?- I love it.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Do it every couple of years. I just love it.
0:14:44 > 0:14:45I always say I'm going to stay
0:14:45 > 0:14:48and then I see somewhere else that looks dreadful and I go,
0:14:48 > 0:14:50"Oh, I can't leave it like that," and I'm off again.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52That's proper conservation, that's great.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55- You're doing a great service to the people of Tamworth.- Thank you.
0:14:55 > 0:14:56Now, I have great news for you.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Doesn't matter what you score with this answer,
0:14:59 > 0:15:01you're still through to the next round.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03I'm just going to say Denmark,
0:15:03 > 0:15:05because I need to be safe.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08- OK, well, you don't need to be safe. - Oh, OK.- That was my spiel!
0:15:08 > 0:15:11Anyway, you're going to go for Denmark. That's fine. Denmark's fine.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15Let's see how many of our 100 people said Denmark.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24See, that's not a bad answer at all.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Look at that, goes down to 14. Brilliant. Very well done.
0:15:27 > 0:15:2858 is your total.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32The most famous winners of all, actually, in 1992,
0:15:32 > 0:15:34when they didn't qualify but Yugoslavia were thrown out
0:15:34 > 0:15:37and they had ten days to prepare and came in and won it, Denmark.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40There are no pointless answers at all, but lots of low answers.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44So let's go through them. You would have got 1 point for Armenia, Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47You'd have got 2 points for Albania, Georgia, Czech Republic,
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Lichtenstein. 3 points for Moldova.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52You'd have got 4 points for Turkey, Faroe Islands, Belarus,
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Montenegro and Cyprus.
0:15:54 > 0:15:575 points for Latvia, Romania.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00Also 5 points for the one that every single football fan at home
0:16:00 > 0:16:02I know has gone for, because they're not a real country -
0:16:02 > 0:16:05and it's Gibraltar, would have scored you 5 points.
0:16:05 > 0:16:076 points for Andorra, Luxembourg, Malta.
0:16:07 > 0:16:097 for Ukraine and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12And 8 for San Marino, Bulgaria, Austria, Lithuania, Hungary.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14So loads and loads of low scorers out there.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18Let's take a look at the top three - the ones that most people said.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Spain, 59, is the third highest scorer.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Germany, 63.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25And England, right at the top on 68.
0:16:25 > 0:16:29You'd have got 37 for Scotland, 36 for the Republic of Ireland,
0:16:29 > 0:16:3131 for Wales. And 21 for Northern Ireland -
0:16:31 > 0:16:32would've been a very good answer.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Thanks very much, Richard. So, at the end of our first round...
0:16:35 > 0:16:37LINDA GIGGLES
0:16:37 > 0:16:40I'm so sorry.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42We have to say goodbye to you, Linda and Barrie.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44I'll tell you something extraordinary -
0:16:44 > 0:16:47- last show you were on, you also scored 159.- I know.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50So, yeah, it was 59 to Barrie, 100 to Linda -
0:16:50 > 0:16:52exactly the same as it was this time.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55I mean, that's just uncanny.
0:16:55 > 0:16:56I suspect foul play, Linda.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59I'm beginning to think this Uruguay thing was, I don't know,
0:16:59 > 0:17:00you've thrown it perhaps.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03It's been lovely having you on both shows. Thank you.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Far too soon to be saying goodbye to you, but wonderful contestants. Linda and Barrie.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09- Thank you very much indeed. - APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:17:09 > 0:17:13But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20And on we steam into our second round,
0:17:20 > 0:17:22shedding a pair as we go.
0:17:22 > 0:17:23Only three pairs remaining.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26At the end of this round we'll shed another, I'm sorry to say.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30Our category for Round Two today is...
0:17:31 > 0:17:34From Football to Art. Can you all decide in your pairs
0:17:34 > 0:17:36who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45OK. And the question concerns...
0:17:50 > 0:17:52- Richard.- On each board we're going to show you
0:17:52 > 0:17:55the names of six works of art created by British artists.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56We need you to tell us the name of the artist.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59We're going to give you their initials as well.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02There's going to be 12 in all to have a go at home, so very best of luck.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04OK. So we're looking for the artist who created these works
0:18:04 > 0:18:07in the years shown. And here's our first board of six.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24I'll read those one last time.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41Helen. So, yes, we want the artists who painted these works.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43We've got their initials up there.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46Erm, I'll go for the top one,
0:18:46 > 0:18:48The Blue Boy, Thomas Gainsborough.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Thomas Gainsborough, says Helen. Let's see if it's right,
0:18:51 > 0:18:54let's see how many people said Thomas Gainsborough.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57It's right.
0:19:01 > 0:19:0430. APPLAUSE
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Not bad, Helen. Not bad at all.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10Yeah, nice start to the round. Originally just called The Boy,
0:19:10 > 0:19:12but then he accidentally mixed up his paints wrong,
0:19:12 > 0:19:13like you do sometimes.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16- Thank you very much, Richard. - Pleasure.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Now then, Stuart.
0:19:19 > 0:19:25Not my greatest subject. Erm...
0:19:25 > 0:19:28OK, I'm going to take a bit of a punt
0:19:28 > 0:19:32and say To Meet My Past,
0:19:32 > 0:19:35- Tracey Emin. - Tracey Emin, says Stuart.
0:19:35 > 0:19:36TE - sounds good to me.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44It is right. 30 is our only score at this point.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46And you pass it.
0:19:46 > 0:19:4914. APPLAUSE
0:19:50 > 0:19:5214.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Another good answer.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57Sold for half a million pounds at auction in 2013, that piece.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00Thanks very much, Richard.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Now then, Maddy, that board's all yours.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05- Do you fancy talking us through it?- No.
0:20:05 > 0:20:06- Ha!- Erm...
0:20:06 > 0:20:08It's not the best round for me.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09I knew the Tracey Emin one
0:20:09 > 0:20:13and I can only really make a guess on A Bigger Splash
0:20:13 > 0:20:14with the initials,
0:20:14 > 0:20:16so I'll say Damien Hirst.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18OK, Damien Hirst, says Maddy.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said that.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27No. No.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30A very overused set of initials that, I'm afraid, in the art world, DH.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32That scores you 100 points.
0:20:32 > 0:20:33I'm sorry.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37Yes, right initials but wrong era, I'm afraid. Do you know that one?
0:20:37 > 0:20:39- David Hockney.- David Hockney is the answer to that.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41Would've scored you...
0:20:41 > 0:20:4216 points.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45Monarch Of The Glen is Edwin Landseer.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Best answer on the board, actually - 5 points.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52Benefits Supervisor Sleeping - sold for £35 million in 2015.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54- Lucian Freud.- Lucian Freud.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Would've scored 12. And the Hay Wain?
0:20:56 > 0:20:58- John Constable.- John Constable
0:20:58 > 0:21:01- And that would've scored you 56. - There we are.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Let's take a look at those scores. Stuart and Dave - they mean business.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10Look at that - 14, very well done indeed. Lovely low score.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12Then up to 30, where we find Helen and Pippa.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15And then up to 100 - bad luck there, Maddy. Yes, Maddy and Sam.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19That may very well not be our last high score of the round.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21So, Sam, a low score from you could keep you in the running.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24So best of luck with that, we're going to come back down the line now.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27Can the second players please step up to the podium.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31OK, we're going to put six more works of art up on the board,
0:21:31 > 0:21:33and here they are.
0:21:49 > 0:21:50I'll read those all one last time.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07Now then, Sam.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10Again, art isn't my strong point.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12But I'm going to sound a bit like a parrot,
0:22:12 > 0:22:16because there's another DH up there and I think it's more his era -
0:22:16 > 0:22:18I'm going to say Damien Hirst, For The Love Of God.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21OK, Damien Hirst, says Sam.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23No red line for you, you're highest scorers.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25But let's see how many of our 100 said Damien Hirst.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29It's absolutely right this time.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Ooh, not bad. 24.
0:22:34 > 0:22:3724. You could still be in the running.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39124 is your total.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41And that work is a platinum skull
0:22:41 > 0:22:44with over 1,000 carats of diamonds embedded in it.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45Thank you very much.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Now then, Dave.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49It doesn't actually matter what you score,
0:22:49 > 0:22:52you're still going to be in the head-to-head.
0:22:52 > 0:22:56But I think you've got a good answer in there. I like to think so.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00I cannot think of possibly a worse subject for me,
0:23:00 > 0:23:05so I'm going to have to take a complete, complete guess and say -
0:23:05 > 0:23:06and it is a complete guess
0:23:06 > 0:23:08and I know exactly what's going to happen -
0:23:08 > 0:23:11but I'm just going to say Whistlejacket, Graham Scott.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Graham Scott.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Uh, let's see... Let's see.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18Doesn't matter - no red line for you, you're already through.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Let's see how wrong Graham Scott is.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25It is, I'm afraid, an incorrect answer, Dave.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27But, as I say, even with the 100 points it scores you,
0:23:27 > 0:23:30you are still comfortably through. So, well done, 114 is your total.
0:23:30 > 0:23:31Not Graham Scott, I'm afraid -
0:23:31 > 0:23:33though he was the inventor of the jacket whistle,
0:23:33 > 0:23:36- which is very different. - Yeah. That's what I was thinking of!
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Thanks very much. Now then, Pippa.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42- Hello.- Pippa, you have to score 93 or less.- Mm-hmm.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Talk us through that board, if you can.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46I know Kissing Coppers is Banksy,
0:23:46 > 0:23:48but I think that's going to be quite high.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50So the only other one I think I know is A Rake's Progress,
0:23:50 > 0:23:53- which is William Hogarth. - William Hogarth, says Pippa.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57Here's your red line - nice and high. Get below that with William Hogarth
0:23:57 > 0:24:00and you are comfortably into the head-to-head.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02How many people said William Hogarth?
0:24:04 > 0:24:05It's right.
0:24:11 > 0:24:1316.
0:24:13 > 0:24:1746 is your total. Well done.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Well played, Pippa. Yeah, you were right, actually,
0:24:19 > 0:24:21to go for that instead of the Banksy as well.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Cos you're right about Banksy,
0:24:23 > 0:24:25he would have scored you more points -
0:24:25 > 0:24:27he would have scored you 36 points.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29That was painted on the side of a pub in Brighton.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32They later removed it and sold it for £345,000.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35- That's a good day, isn't it? - Spray-painted. Yeah, wasn't it just?
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Whistlejacket - someone very famous for painting horses.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40- George Stubbs.- Yeah.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Whistlejacket, the name of a horse, of course. 8 points for that.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45Ophelia - John Everett Millais. Would've scored you 15.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47And Angel Of The North,
0:24:47 > 0:24:49one of the most viewed works of art in the world, of course,
0:24:49 > 0:24:52and it's Antony Gormley - would've scored you 27.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54So George Stubbs the best answer on that board.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Thank you very much indeed.
0:24:56 > 0:24:57So, at the end of our second round,
0:24:57 > 0:25:00the pair who are heading home with our highest score of 124 -
0:25:00 > 0:25:03I'm sorry, Sam and Maddy, it is you.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07Yeah, it's their David Hockney/ Damien Hirst mix-up there.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09I'm sorry. Mind you, there was something poetic
0:25:09 > 0:25:11about getting it right on the next board.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13We'll see you again next time,
0:25:13 > 0:25:15we'll look forward to that very much indeed.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18- But meantime, thanks very much indeed, Sam and Maddy.- Thank you.
0:25:18 > 0:25:19- APPLAUSE - Good luck.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24But for Dave and Stuart, and Pippa and Helen,
0:25:24 > 0:25:26it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33Well done, Pippa and Helen, Dave and Stuart.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35You're now one step closer to the final
0:25:35 > 0:25:38and a chance to play for that jackpot,
0:25:38 > 0:25:40which currently stands at £5,250.
0:25:45 > 0:25:46Well, you know the story here.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48We've reached the head-to-head, you can confer,
0:25:48 > 0:25:51first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54I think it all bodes very well for a very, very good head-to-head.
0:25:54 > 0:25:55Let's play it.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58APPLAUSE
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Here comes your first question. And it concerns...
0:26:08 > 0:26:11Scary Celebrities. Rich.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13We've met a few of those in our time, haven't we?
0:26:13 > 0:26:14If you ever watch Pointless Celebrities
0:26:14 > 0:26:16you can see the terror in our eyes occasionally.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18We're going to show you five pictures now
0:26:18 > 0:26:20of celebrities dressed in Halloween costumes.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Can you identify the celebrities, please.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25OK, let's reveal our five scary celebrities.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28And here they are. We've got...
0:26:37 > 0:26:40That's not scary!
0:26:45 > 0:26:47ALEXANDER LAUGHS E!
0:26:48 > 0:26:51- There we go. - It's terrifying, E, isn't it?
0:26:51 > 0:26:55Pippa and Helen, you will be going first. Feel free to confer.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57THEY CONFER
0:27:02 > 0:27:04We'll go for A, Kim Kardashian.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07A, Kim Kardashian.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10OK. Now, Dave and Stuart,
0:27:10 > 0:27:13talk us through the rest of those scary celebrities.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15Yeah, not good on celebrities.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19Erm... We know who C and D are.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22C is Dara O Briain and D is Stephen Merchant.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24We'll go for Dara O Briain.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27OK, you're going to say Dara O Briain for C.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Pippa and Helen have said A, Kim Kardashian.
0:27:30 > 0:27:31Let's see if that's right,
0:27:31 > 0:27:34let's see how many of our 100 people said Kim Kardashian.
0:27:36 > 0:27:37It's right.
0:27:42 > 0:27:43There we go.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46APPLAUSE 17 for Kim Kardashian.
0:27:49 > 0:27:53Dave and Stuart, meanwhile, have said Dara O Briain for C.
0:27:53 > 0:27:54Let's see if it's right
0:27:54 > 0:27:57and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said that.
0:27:59 > 0:28:00It's right.
0:28:03 > 0:28:0535 for Dara.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07APPLAUSE
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Which means, Pippa and Helen, well done -
0:28:09 > 0:28:11- after one question you're up 1-0. - Very well played.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14You knew a much better answer, gents - Stephen Merchant.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Much better answer than Dara O Briain.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Would have scored you 13 points.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20So would have got you the point there.
0:28:20 > 0:28:23Kim Kardashian's costume is the best there, isn't it, I think?
0:28:23 > 0:28:26Oh, it is. That spine is beautifully drawn, isn't it?
0:28:26 > 0:28:28- Look at that.- Nicely done.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30B is Alexa Chung.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32Would've scored you 1 point.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35And E is Paris Hilton.
0:28:35 > 0:28:39- And that is horrific, what she's wearing. But it's not...- 40 points.
0:28:39 > 0:28:41It's not really Halloween, is it?
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:28:43 > 0:28:45OK, here comes your second question.
0:28:45 > 0:28:47Dave and Stuart, you will answer it first,
0:28:47 > 0:28:48but you have to win it to stay in the game.
0:28:48 > 0:28:51Best of luck. It concerns...
0:28:52 > 0:28:55Citrus Fruits, Richard.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58Yeah, we're going to show you the names of five citrus fruits now,
0:28:58 > 0:29:01but we have, as it were, put them in the blender.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03I like that, I like that.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05I know. So they are now anagrams.
0:29:05 > 0:29:08Can you unscramble them and give us the most obscure answer.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11OK. Smoothies, essentially. OK. Here we go.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14Let's reveal our five citrus fruits. And we've got...
0:29:20 > 0:29:24FIG RAPTURE - now that is a smoothie, isn't it?
0:29:24 > 0:29:25- Mmm, a fig rapture.- Oh!- Lovely.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32Dave and Stuart will go first.
0:29:34 > 0:29:35THEY CONFER
0:29:39 > 0:29:41Erm... Well, we know two or three of them.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44We're going to go with the top one, which is clementine.
0:29:44 > 0:29:48Clementine, say Dave and Stuart. Clementine for ELECT ME INN.
0:29:48 > 0:29:50Now then, Pippa and Helen,
0:29:50 > 0:29:53- do you want to talk us through those?- Yeah.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55We've got the bottom two, which I think...
0:29:55 > 0:29:57The one up from the bottom I think is mandarin,
0:29:57 > 0:29:59and the bottom one is grapefruit.
0:29:59 > 0:30:01So we're going to go for...mandarin.
0:30:01 > 0:30:02Yeah, go for it.
0:30:02 > 0:30:06OK, you're going to go for mandarin. So we have clementine and mandarin.
0:30:06 > 0:30:08A lot of people say they're kind of the same thing.
0:30:08 > 0:30:09I don't really know what the difference is.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12Dave and Stuart said clementine. Let's see if that's right
0:30:12 > 0:30:15and, if it is, let's see how many people said that.
0:30:21 > 0:30:2226.
0:30:25 > 0:30:28Pippa and Helen have gone for mandarin.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:30:32 > 0:30:34It's right.
0:30:35 > 0:30:37Needs to go down below 20.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39Oh, no. Look at that. 48.
0:30:39 > 0:30:4048.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42Well done, Dave and Stuart, back in the game.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44After two questions, it's 1-1.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46Yeah, let's fill in the rest of this board.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50There's one very good answer up there. Satsuma in the middle there.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53Again, another thing that I would've just called a tangerine.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56Would've scored you 52. Goes to show how little you know about citrus fruits.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58Clementines, satsumas and mandarins -
0:30:58 > 0:30:59very, very different things.
0:30:59 > 0:31:02- FIG RAPTURE.- Erm... BOTH:- Grapefruit.
0:31:02 > 0:31:05Would've scored you 45.
0:31:05 > 0:31:07Now, this other one is a tricky one. I hadn't heard of it.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10If I told you it was a blood orange, and if you know your Latin,
0:31:10 > 0:31:12it gives you a clue.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15- Sanguine.- Sanguinello is the answer.
0:31:15 > 0:31:16And it's a pointless answer.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18So, very well done if you said that. Would be lovely,
0:31:18 > 0:31:21a bit of sanguinello right about now, wouldn't it?
0:31:21 > 0:31:23Sanguinello sounds like sort of the liqueur you might make from it.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26If you were in a restaurant and they said sanguinello juice,
0:31:26 > 0:31:29you would just, by the very dint of not having heard of it,
0:31:29 > 0:31:30you would assume it was exotic and tasty.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32Mmm. And you'd be right. Thank you very much.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34Here comes your third question.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Whoever wins this goes through to the final
0:31:36 > 0:31:39and plays for that colossal jackpot. Best of luck to both pairs. It concerns...
0:31:41 > 0:31:42The Number Five, Richard.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45I'm going to show you five clues now about the number five.
0:31:45 > 0:31:48- That's eerie.- It's really...
0:31:48 > 0:31:49It's so spooky, isn't it?
0:31:49 > 0:31:51And also, if you get it right,
0:31:51 > 0:31:54you're going through to play for over £5,000 as well.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57So, I don't know what's happening.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00But certainly Paris Hilton was hanging around earlier. I know that.
0:32:02 > 0:32:06Right, let's reveal our five clues - and here they are.
0:32:21 > 0:32:22I'll read those one last time.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35Once again, Pippa and Helen, you will go first.
0:32:35 > 0:32:38THEY CONFER
0:32:44 > 0:32:45We're going to go for the top one,
0:32:45 > 0:32:49the decade in which the UK's Channel 5 was launched, which was the '90s.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51The 1990s say Pippa and Helen.
0:32:51 > 0:32:54The 1990s. Dave and Stuart, over to you - talk us through that board.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57Yeah, I was trying to work five to the power of five in my head
0:32:57 > 0:32:58and I got lost.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01Shall we do the first UK hit for Five?
0:33:01 > 0:33:03No. Erm...
0:33:03 > 0:33:05Chemical element...
0:33:05 > 0:33:06No. Have to just go for quintet.
0:33:06 > 0:33:08- Bottom one.- Quintet.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10So we have the 1990s and we have quintet.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Pippa and Helen went for the 1990s,
0:33:12 > 0:33:14let's see if that's right for Channel 5.
0:33:18 > 0:33:19It is right.
0:33:22 > 0:33:2532. APPLAUSE
0:33:25 > 0:33:2732, the 1990s.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30Meanwhile, Dave and Stuart have said it is a quintet,
0:33:30 > 0:33:32a group of five musicians.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:33:36 > 0:33:37It is right.
0:33:39 > 0:33:4151.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Very well done, Pippa and Helen.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48After three questions, you're through to the final, 2-1.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50Well played, Pippa and Helen - terrific stuff.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52How far did you get through
0:33:52 > 0:33:54in your calculations for five to the power of five?
0:33:54 > 0:33:57I got as far as five cubed and then I sort of got a bit lost.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00So, 5. 5 squared, 25. 5 cubed, 125.
0:34:00 > 0:34:035 times 4 is 625.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06- 625.- And then it's 3,125.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09And if you said that, you'd be playing for the jackpot.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11Because it would've scored you...
0:34:12 > 0:34:149 points.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16Cos everybody else gave up as well.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19- Yeah!- Chemical element is boron.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22Also would've seen you in the final - 14 points for that.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25And the first UK number one single for the boy band Five
0:34:25 > 0:34:28was Keep On Movin'.
0:34:28 > 0:34:29Keep On Movin'. And that scored...
0:34:29 > 0:34:32- 5 points. - LAUGHTER
0:34:32 > 0:34:34- There you go. - That's just too spooky for words.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37OK, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round -
0:34:37 > 0:34:40I'm afraid, Dave and Stuart, it is you. But such a strong performance.
0:34:40 > 0:34:42We'll see you again next time,
0:34:42 > 0:34:44and I'm sure you'll do this well, if not better.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46We look forward to that very much indeed.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48- Dave and Stuart, thanks very much indeed.- Thank you.- Thanks.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51APPLAUSE
0:34:51 > 0:34:54But for Pippa and Helen, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01Pippa and Helen, well done.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03You've fought off all the competition.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06- You have won our coveted Pointless trophy.- Yes!- This is very exciting.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18Need you be reminded, the jackpot at the end of today's show
0:35:18 > 0:35:21stands at £5,250.
0:35:21 > 0:35:22CHEERING
0:35:22 > 0:35:24This is very exciting.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27Oh, jackpot over 5,000 - all those fives we had.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29Is five a lucky number for either of you?
0:35:29 > 0:35:30- It is now!- Yeah!
0:35:30 > 0:35:33Well, listen, you've done very, very well indeed.
0:35:33 > 0:35:34I mean, great low scores,
0:35:34 > 0:35:37quite an exciting head-to-head there.
0:35:37 > 0:35:39Anything you want to see come up in the final round?
0:35:39 > 0:35:42- '80s music would be good. - '80s music, wouldn't that be great?
0:35:42 > 0:35:45Helen, any other areas of expertise?
0:35:45 > 0:35:47- Just random trivia. Really random.- Random trivia.
0:35:47 > 0:35:50- I can definitely promise you that.- Thank you.
0:35:50 > 0:35:53As always, you get to choose your category from the four we've put up on the board behind me.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55Let's see what we've got today.
0:36:00 > 0:36:02This is everything you've asked for...
0:36:05 > 0:36:08- Doggy Films?- Yeah.- Doggy Films.
0:36:08 > 0:36:11Doggy Films. OK, there we are. Richard, Doggy Films.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14OK, we're looking for anybody who received an acting credit
0:36:14 > 0:36:17in any of the following three films according to IMDb, please.
0:36:17 > 0:36:21Specifically, any human who received an acting credit in...
0:36:21 > 0:36:23The 2002 film Scooby-Doo,
0:36:23 > 0:36:26the 2008 film Marley and Me,
0:36:26 > 0:36:30and the 1996 live-action film 101 Dalmatians.
0:36:30 > 0:36:35So anyone with an acting credit in any of those three films, please.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37Very best of luck.
0:36:37 > 0:36:38OK. Now, as always, you've got up to a minute
0:36:38 > 0:36:40to come up with three answers,
0:36:40 > 0:36:43and all you need to win that jackpot, £5,250,
0:36:43 > 0:36:46is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:46 > 0:36:48- Are you ready? BOTH:- Mm-hmm.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53Your time starts now.
0:36:53 > 0:36:55- Scooby-Doo.- Rowan Atkinson.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57- Rowan Atkinson in Scooby-Doo. - He's the baddie, yeah.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00You've got Freddie Prinze Jr, obviously, was Fred.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02Yeah, that's going to be really obvious.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04Marley and Me, I've never watched it
0:37:04 > 0:37:07cos I know it's going to make me cry, so I won't watch it.
0:37:07 > 0:37:08101 Dalmatians.
0:37:08 > 0:37:11Was Hugh Laurie in 101 Dalmatians? I think he was.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13- I think he probably was. - We'll go for that one.- OK.
0:37:13 > 0:37:14So, Hugh Laurie...
0:37:14 > 0:37:16Hugh Laurie.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18- Rowan Atkinson.- Yeah.
0:37:18 > 0:37:19And...
0:37:19 > 0:37:21Jennifer Aniston was in Marley and Me.
0:37:21 > 0:37:24I think Owen Wilson was opposite.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26- Yeah.- They're both really quite high.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28Anybody else in Scooby-Doo?
0:37:28 > 0:37:30There could be loads in 101 Dalmatians.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33- There's 101 Dalmatians in there. - Yeah, but you can't name the dogs.
0:37:33 > 0:37:37Do you know the dogs? I've never watched 101 Dalmatians.
0:37:37 > 0:37:39- Glenn...Close.- Close.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42I know she's the baddie, but that's going to be quite high.
0:37:42 > 0:37:43Ten seconds left.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46- Do you want to go for Freddie Prinze Jr...- Yeah.
0:37:46 > 0:37:48Rowan Atkinson. And?
0:37:48 > 0:37:51- Glenn Close.- No, what's his name?
0:37:51 > 0:37:52- Hugh Laurie.- Hugh Laurie, yeah.
0:37:52 > 0:37:53OK, that's your time up.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56Just as you decide on your answers, let's have them,
0:37:56 > 0:37:58and if you say which category you're answering that would be great.
0:37:58 > 0:38:01- Hugh Laurie for 101 Dalmatians. - Hugh Laurie.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03Rowan Atkinson, Scooby-Doo.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06- Yeah. And Freddie Prinze Jr. - Freddie Prinze Jr for Scooby-Doo.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Rowan Atkinson and Freddie Prinze Jr.
0:38:08 > 0:38:11Now, of those three which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:11 > 0:38:13- Probably Rowan Atkinson. - Right, he goes last.
0:38:13 > 0:38:17- Least likely to be pointless?- Hugh Laurie.- Hugh Laurie we'll put first.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19- OK.- OK, well, let's pop those up on the board in that order, then.
0:38:19 > 0:38:21And here they are.
0:38:21 > 0:38:22We've got Hugh Laurie,
0:38:22 > 0:38:24we've got Freddie Prinze Jr
0:38:24 > 0:38:25and we've got Rowan Atkinson.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Well, very best of luck.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29There's a very exciting jackpot riding on this.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31One of those answers could be pointless
0:38:31 > 0:38:35and would win that jackpot, £5250, for you.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37Pippa, what would you do with your share of that?
0:38:37 > 0:38:41Ironically I need to purchase a new Doberman -
0:38:41 > 0:38:44I lost one recently.
0:38:44 > 0:38:47So I'd like to get a new Dobie, and they're not cheap.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50Right, OK. good. Helen, that would be really appropriate, wouldn't it?
0:38:50 > 0:38:52- It would.- Helen?
0:38:52 > 0:38:55Randomly, I fancy buying a motorbike.
0:38:55 > 0:38:59Me and my partner want to get something a bit old-school
0:38:59 > 0:39:02- and just have a razz around on a motorbike.- Excellent.
0:39:02 > 0:39:03Well, three good answers there.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06Let's hope one of them is pointless and will win that jackpot for you.
0:39:06 > 0:39:08Your first answer was Hugh Laurie,
0:39:08 > 0:39:11in this case we were looking for cast members from 101 Dalmatians.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14It has to be right, then it has to be pointless for you to win.
0:39:14 > 0:39:18So, for £5,250, let's see how many people said Hugh Laurie.
0:39:18 > 0:39:19Is it pointless?
0:39:22 > 0:39:23Well, it's right.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26Hugh Laurie taking us all the way down through the 50s and 40s.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28If it goes down to zero
0:39:28 > 0:39:30you leave with £5,250.
0:39:30 > 0:39:33Down through the teens into the single figures. Still going down.
0:39:33 > 0:39:34Down it goes, still going...
0:39:34 > 0:39:35Oh, 1!
0:39:35 > 0:39:361 for Hugh Laurie.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39APPLAUSE
0:39:39 > 0:39:41I knew the answer!
0:39:43 > 0:39:46That's a great answer. Fabulous score.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49I'm afraid it's not pointless, though.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51So we have to discount it at this stage
0:39:51 > 0:39:54and move on to your next answer, which was Freddie Prinze Jr.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57In this case we were looking for cast members of Scooby-Doo.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59It has to be pointless for you to win,
0:39:59 > 0:40:03so for £5,250 let's see how many people said Freddie Prinze Jr.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09It's also correct.
0:40:09 > 0:40:12Your first answer was Hugh Laurie, took us all the way down to 1.
0:40:12 > 0:40:14Freddie Prinze Jr now taking us through the 30s and the 20s,
0:40:14 > 0:40:17into the teens and...
0:40:17 > 0:40:18Oh, not quite into single figures.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21OK, 11. 11 for Freddie Prinze Jr.
0:40:22 > 0:40:26I think you'd have been very surprised if that had been pointless.
0:40:26 > 0:40:30That was just holding its place there, wasn't it, for the main event.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33Which is your third and final answer, Rowan Atkinson.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36And, again, we were looking for cast members from Scooby-Doo.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39If it's right and if it's pointless it will win you £5,250.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41How many people said Rowan Atkinson?
0:40:41 > 0:40:42Is it pointless?
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Well, it's also correct,
0:40:48 > 0:40:50as have been all your answers.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53Hugh Laurie took us all the way down to 1.
0:40:53 > 0:40:55Freddie Prinze Jr took us down to 11.
0:40:55 > 0:40:57Rowan Atkinson now in single figures, down it goes.
0:40:57 > 0:40:58Still going down, still going down.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00Oh!
0:41:00 > 0:41:022. APPLAUSE
0:41:02 > 0:41:04Cruel. That's really cruel.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08Oh, I have to say, that is...
0:41:08 > 0:41:11That's cruel, isn't it? Cruel!
0:41:11 > 0:41:13Two answers that have taken you down
0:41:13 > 0:41:15within touching distance of that jackpot.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19I'm afraid, though, you didn't find that all-important pointless answer,
0:41:19 > 0:41:22so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £5,250 -
0:41:22 > 0:41:23that will roll over onto the next show.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25But it's been great having you on the show -
0:41:25 > 0:41:27really strong performance throughout.
0:41:27 > 0:41:31And you get to take home a Pointless trophy each, so very, very well done.
0:41:31 > 0:41:34- Thank you. - CHEERING
0:41:37 > 0:41:39Yeah, unlucky. Some good answers there.
0:41:39 > 0:41:42We gave away the jackpot five times in a row recently, didn't we?
0:41:42 > 0:41:44Now we're finding it harder to give away, I have to say.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46It's building up.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49Let's take a look at the pointless answers in the different categories.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Scooby-Doo cast. Kristian Schmid was a pointless answer.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53He was in Neighbours as well, Kristian Schmid.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56Linda Cardellini, Neil Fanning, Nicolas Hope -
0:41:56 > 0:41:58everyone in that film apart from Sarah Michelle Gellar,
0:41:58 > 0:42:02Freddie Prinze Jr, Rowan Atkinson, Matthew Lillard and Isla Fisher.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04Everyone else is pointless.
0:42:04 > 0:42:05Marley and Me.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07Joyce Van Patten, Eric Dane,
0:42:07 > 0:42:10the brilliant Clarke Peters, the brilliant Alan Arkin as well.
0:42:10 > 0:42:11Again, everyone pointless in that film
0:42:11 > 0:42:14apart from Jennifer Aniston, Owen Wilson and Kathleen Turner.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Every single other member of the cast was a pointless answer,
0:42:17 > 0:42:18so well done if you said one.
0:42:18 > 0:42:19And 101 Dalmatians.
0:42:19 > 0:42:21Jeff Daniels, a pointless answer there.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23Joan Plowright, Joely Richardson.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26Tim McInnerny - best known over here for Blackadder, of course.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28So some big names in the pointless answers.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30Only two answers scored any points at all, though.
0:42:30 > 0:42:34Glenn Close scored 19 and, of course, Hugh Laurie, who scored 1.
0:42:34 > 0:42:35So, very, very unlucky.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38Very well done at home if you got any of those pointless answers.
0:42:38 > 0:42:40You would have just won five-and-a-bit thousand pounds.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45Well, unfortunately we have to say goodbye to you, Pippa and Helen,
0:42:45 > 0:42:47but it's been great having you on the show.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Thank you so much for playing. Pippa and Helen.
0:42:50 > 0:42:52APPLAUSE
0:42:52 > 0:42:54Well, Pippa and Helen didn't win our jackpot today,
0:42:54 > 0:42:56which means it rolls over onto the next show,
0:42:56 > 0:42:58where we will be playing for £6,250.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00WHOOPING AND CHEERING
0:43:00 > 0:43:02Join us next time to see if someone can win it.
0:43:02 > 0:43:05- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:05 > 0:43:06And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
