0:00:16 > 0:00:21APPLAUSE
0:00:21 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless -
0:00:25 > 0:00:26the show where the aim of the game
0:00:26 > 0:00:29is to avoid the obvious answers and find the obscure ones.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34APPLAUSE
0:00:34 > 0:00:35And couple number one.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38Hi, I'm Holly. This is my partner, Dan, and we're from West London.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Couple number two.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43Hi, I'm Alan. This is my very good friend, Jim,
0:00:43 > 0:00:44and we're from Carshalton in Surrey.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Couple number three.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Hi, I'm Louise. This is my dad, Adrian.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50We're from Cardiff and Swansea.
0:00:50 > 0:00:51And finally, couple number four.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Hi, I'm Yatish. This is my sister, Hemisha.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55We're from Hendon, North London.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57And these are today's contestants.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59APPLAUSE
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Thanks very much to all of you.
0:01:01 > 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 > 0:01:09Sitting there at the naughty desk like a petulant preschooler,
0:01:09 > 0:01:11- it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14- APPLAUSE - Afternoon, everybody.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16- Good afternoon. - Good afternoon to you.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18What a show we had last time.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- What a show.- Amazing.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Cassandra and Rachel absolutely blitzed all the way through.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25We learned a new word in the first round, polysemous,
0:01:25 > 0:01:27words which mean the same.
0:01:27 > 0:01:28They blitzed through that.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31They even managed to get through a golfers and snooker players round.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33- Yeah.- In the head-to-head... - We learned a new herb.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35We did learn a new herb.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37- Hyssop.- Hyssop, which they informed us of.- Yeah.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39In every single question in that head-to-head,
0:01:39 > 0:01:42they got the best possible answer on the board. It was very impressive.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44In the final round, they had X Factor winners
0:01:44 > 0:01:46and they knew about all that as well -
0:01:46 > 0:01:49as lots of very bright people do. £6,250 they walked away with -
0:01:49 > 0:01:51and very deservedly so as well.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53It was a very impressive performance.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Only one pair back from that show, Louise and Adrian,
0:01:55 > 0:01:57who were knocked out in the first round.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Very unluckily knocked out in the first round with a very low score,
0:02:00 > 0:02:03so, hopefully, you'll see a bit more of them on this show
0:02:03 > 0:02:06and welcome, everybody else, to a brand-new show
0:02:06 > 0:02:09- with a lovely, lower jackpot. - LAUGHTER
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Good news for everybody.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13I think apart from poor old Cassandra and Rachel,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16- who've now got the problem of all that money.- Yeah.
0:02:16 > 0:02:17LAUGHTER
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Thank you very much, Richard.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Now, Cassandra and Rachel, as you may have gathered,
0:02:21 > 0:02:22won the jackpot last time.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25So, today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000. There it is.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Right, if we're all ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:27 > 0:02:32APPLAUSE
0:02:32 > 0:02:34So, the cardinal rule, as ever, is this -
0:02:34 > 0:02:37the highest scoring pair at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41Simply that. Do what you can to make sure you are not that pair.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43OK, our first category this afternoon...
0:02:46 > 0:02:48Prime Ministers. Can you all decide in your pairs
0:02:48 > 0:02:50who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:03:00 > 0:03:02to name as many...
0:03:08 > 0:03:12HE REPEATS QUESTION
0:03:12 > 0:03:15- Richard.- Yeah, looking for any UK Prime Minister,
0:03:15 > 0:03:17all the way from Walpole in the 18th century
0:03:17 > 0:03:20through to May 2015, whose surname begins from A to M.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21Looking for their family name.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24So, there's been all sorts of earls and marquises, and dukes.
0:03:24 > 0:03:25None of those names, please.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Just the family names of any British Prime Minister.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30Very best of luck.
0:03:30 > 0:03:31Thank you very much indeed.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34OK, so, British Prime Ministers.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Anyway, Holly, let's put that to the back of our minds for a moment.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Ha, back of minds, ha-ha.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40You can keep thinking about that but,
0:03:40 > 0:03:42meanwhile, tell me what you do, Holly.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45I actually work for a children's charity.
0:03:45 > 0:03:46We're a wish-granting charity
0:03:46 > 0:03:49so we grant wishes for seriously and terminally ill children.
0:03:49 > 0:03:50So, I'm a wish granter.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52You're like a fairy godmother.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54I do have a magic wand on my desk.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56- You do?- Yeah.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Which of the many kinds of magic wand?
0:03:58 > 0:04:01- Because I have been looking at them online.- Just a sparkly one.
0:04:01 > 0:04:02Just a sparkly one?
0:04:02 > 0:04:03You went for the sparkly, OK.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06A wish granter, that is wonderful.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08- How long have you been doing that? - Just over a year.
0:04:08 > 0:04:12Presumably, you hope to do that for as long as you possibly can.
0:04:12 > 0:04:13- Yeah, definitely.- Fabulous.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16What are your interests outside of granting wishes?
0:04:16 > 0:04:19I like cooking, baking,
0:04:19 > 0:04:23looking after our pet budgie, called Howard.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24We got him a few months ago.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Howard, the obvious name for a budgie.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28We've been training him.
0:04:28 > 0:04:29When we got him, he was really scared
0:04:29 > 0:04:31- and wouldn't come out of his cage.- Does he speak?
0:04:31 > 0:04:33In his own language.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35We're teaching him key phrases. "I love you."
0:04:35 > 0:04:37I'm trying to teach him to say, "I love you"
0:04:37 > 0:04:39so he says that back to me, but... He'll get there.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42- Does he tweet? - He tweets a lot.
0:04:42 > 0:04:43LAUGHTER
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Holly, now, Prime Ministers
0:04:46 > 0:04:48whose surnames begin with the letters
0:04:48 > 0:04:50A to M in the alphabet.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53Well, I'm going to start with an A.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56It's come to me. I think it's a Prime Minister.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57Clement Attlee.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Clement Attlee, says Holly.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Sounds good to me. Let's see how many of our 100 liked Clement Attlee.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06It's right.
0:05:11 > 0:05:1326. APPLAUSE
0:05:13 > 0:05:1526 for Clement Attlee.
0:05:15 > 0:05:171945-1951.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19Oversaw the setting up of the health service
0:05:19 > 0:05:21and all sorts of things post-war.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Thanks very much, Richard.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25- Now then, Alan.- Hi. - Welcome to Pointless.
0:05:25 > 0:05:30- What do you do, Alan? - I'm a London firefighter.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33- Where are you based? - I'm currently based at Brixton.
0:05:33 > 0:05:34I've been serving for 25 years.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37And your interests, aside from fighting fires?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39I do a lot of outdoor stuff -
0:05:39 > 0:05:41walking, swimming,
0:05:41 > 0:05:43a bit of open water swimming...
0:05:43 > 0:05:46I swam the Channel, I swam Loch Ness.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49You throw these out casually, Alan. You swam the Channel?!
0:05:49 > 0:05:51I'm trying to delay the answer to my question at the moment.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53You might have said that first.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56I'd have said that before I even said I was a firefighter, probably.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59- When did you do that?- I think it was about 2009. There were three of us.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01We did it as a relay.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Blimey!
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Do you look back on fondly or was that...?- It was great. Yeah.
0:06:06 > 0:06:07The Channel was brilliant.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10The Loch Ness was a little more scary.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- Really? Just colder? - Just cold and dark...
0:06:13 > 0:06:15- and it's got a monster.- Yeah.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18There must be several monsters, surely. There can't just be one.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20I should think 15 at least.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Now, Alan, what are we going to go for?
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Prime Ministers, A to M.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27I am going to take an easy option
0:06:27 > 0:06:29because Attlee was mine,
0:06:29 > 0:06:31but I will go Gordon Brown.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Gordon Brown.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Let's see how many of our 100 people said Gordon Brown.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40It's right.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Wow. APPLAUSE
0:06:44 > 0:06:4547.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Blimey. 47.
0:06:48 > 0:06:502007-2010. I know.
0:06:50 > 0:06:5253 people had already forgotten.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- Perhaps they just forgot his surname.- Maybe they did.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59- Maybe they did.- He was christened James Brown, of course.- Yeah.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Should've stuck with it. There we go.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Now, Adrian, welcome back.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Now, listen, it was Round One last time we had to say goodbye to you.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- It was very, very unlucky. You just happen to be high-scorers.- Tragic.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Nothing wrong with either of your answers. Great answers, in fact.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Anyway, let's not dwell on that.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Remind us what you do, Adrian.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19I'm a songwriter and music producer.
0:07:19 > 0:07:20So, when you're...
0:07:20 > 0:07:21A normal day for you...
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Are you in your studio?
0:07:23 > 0:07:25When I'm not watching cricket or football, yes.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29- As a songwriter, that's kind of work as well, isn't it?- Kind of.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31If anyone says, "What are you doing?"
0:07:31 > 0:07:33You say, "Just thinking of songs."
0:07:33 > 0:07:35I write songs like that all the time. LAUGHTER
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- I just forget to write them down, that's the trouble.- All right.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Now, then, Adrian, what would you like to go for?
0:07:41 > 0:07:42We need a nice, low score. Simply...
0:07:42 > 0:07:46I'm forbidding you leaving any earlier than at least the final.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49"You've never had it so good", Harold Macmillan.
0:07:49 > 0:07:50Harold Macmillan.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Just under M there.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54OK, let's see how many of our 100 said Harold Macmillan.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00It's right.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Well, 26 is our low scorer at this point.
0:08:02 > 0:08:03You past it, 23.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Well done, Adrian. APPLAUSE
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Good job, lowest score so far.
0:08:08 > 0:08:101957-1963.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13- When I was in the Cubs, he gave us a medal.- Did he really?
0:08:13 > 0:08:15- Yeah, he did, yeah.- Was he nice?
0:08:15 > 0:08:17He seemed perfectly all right.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21I have no truck with him whatsoever.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22What was your medal?
0:08:22 > 0:08:23I don't remember what it was for.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25I think it was just for being in the Cubs.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- I don't think I did anything particularly...- A Macmillan medal?
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Yes, I don't think I'd saved a dog from a house or anything.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33I think it was just the dint of being a Cub.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35I bet Alan's saved a dog from a house.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38How many dogs have you saved from houses, Alan?
0:08:38 > 0:08:40I've saved a snake and a couple of rats.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42I didn't ask about snakes.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43Snakes.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44- Snakes and rats?- Yeah.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46They were tame rats or just rats...?
0:08:46 > 0:08:48Rats in cages, yeah.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50OK, very good.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- Thank you very much indeed. Now, Yatish...- Yeah.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- Welcome to the show. Great to have you here from Hendon.- Yep.
0:08:55 > 0:08:56What do you do, Yatish?
0:08:56 > 0:09:00I'm a software consultant in the City at the moment.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03I was working in Eastern Europe for a while, now back in London.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05OK, so, a software consultant is different from IT, isn't it?
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Yeah, a little bit, a little bit.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09You provide the stuff at the beginning
0:09:09 > 0:09:12and then run away and leave it to the IT guys to run.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Delegate wherever possible and
0:09:14 > 0:09:16hide for cover if anything goes wrong.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17Absolutely fantastic.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19And what do you do in your spare time, Yatish?
0:09:19 > 0:09:20I like travelling,
0:09:20 > 0:09:23playing guitar very badly
0:09:23 > 0:09:26and follow cricket, quite passionately.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29Very good indeed. OK, now, Yatish,
0:09:29 > 0:09:31how we feeling about Prime Ministers?
0:09:31 > 0:09:32This is OK, I think.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35I'm trying to think back to my A-level politics days.
0:09:35 > 0:09:36- Oh, I see.- Yeah.- Yes, good.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38Quite a while ago now but there's one I've got in mind
0:09:38 > 0:09:42which I'm going to try for and that's Arthur Balfour.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45"Arthur Balfour," says Yatish.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Let's see how many of our 100 people said Arthur Balfour.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Well, 23 is our low scorer at this point.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Arthur Balfour goes past that.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Look at that, just one!
0:09:59 > 0:10:00APPLAUSE
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Yatish, THAT is a good score.
0:10:05 > 0:10:081902-05, Yatish. Great one. Did you hear the murmur from the audience
0:10:08 > 0:10:11when he came up with it, as well? They were very impressed.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14I wonder if, in 110 years' time, I wonder if Gordon Brown
0:10:14 > 0:10:16- will still get 1, or whether... - LAUGHTER
0:10:16 > 0:10:20..he may be doomed to the list of pointless answers I have here?
0:10:20 > 0:10:23But then he'll... That takes on a certain charm.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25- People love pointless answers. - Yeah, I guess so.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28Perhaps Gordon Brown will be the Central African Republic of...
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Exactly, of politics. LAUGHTER
0:10:30 > 0:10:33There we are. Thanks, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34Let's take a look at those scores. Yatish,
0:10:34 > 0:10:37impressive low scoring there with Arthur Balfour.
0:10:37 > 0:10:381, that scores you.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Then up to 23, where we find Adrian and Louise.
0:10:40 > 0:10:4226, Holly and Dan,
0:10:42 > 0:10:44and then 47, Alan and Jim.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Now, Jim, Alan is in very good hands, there, I'm sure.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49You look like somebody who's got
0:10:49 > 0:10:51an absolute ace Prime Minister up your sleeve there.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- Have you seen these hands?- Yeah. LAUGHTER
0:10:53 > 0:10:54Best of luck with that, Jim.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57We need you to stay with us at the end of this round.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58We're going to come back down the line.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:11:03 > 0:11:06- Now then, Hemisha, welcome to Pointless.- Thank you.
0:11:06 > 0:11:07What do you do, Hemisha?
0:11:07 > 0:11:10I'm an administrator who works for a company
0:11:10 > 0:11:12that conducts private medicals around the UK.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15- Oh, I see, so for insurance purposes. - Yes, that's it.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Oh, that's quite nice. So, when people conduct private...
0:11:18 > 0:11:20- You send... You dispatch people out. - Yes.
0:11:20 > 0:11:21People don't have to come into you.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Yeah, we match up nurses to what area they're in,
0:11:24 > 0:11:27- where clients are. - Very good, indeed,
0:11:27 > 0:11:29and what are your interests outside of that?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Like my brother, I like travelling.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34I like reading.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37- I also take a self-defence class once a week.- You TAKE it?
0:11:37 > 0:11:40- Yes.- You are the... You are the guru?
0:11:40 > 0:11:42- No.- What is the...? Oh, no, you turn up.- I'm the student.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45You attend. I see, when you said you took it,
0:11:45 > 0:11:47I was thinking you were perhaps teaching people.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50- What's the self-defence class? - It's called Krav Maga.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Krav Maga - how is that?
0:11:52 > 0:11:56What makes Krav Maga Krav Maga and not something else?
0:11:56 > 0:11:58- What's the difference? - It's like an Israeli
0:11:58 > 0:12:02- self-defence technique. - I see.- Yes, I've just started,
0:12:02 > 0:12:05so I'm still on the lower belts.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08- So you have belts for Krav Maga? - Yes, I'm currently on white belt.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10- White belt.- Working up to yellow.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Very good. OK. Very good.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Now, you're also currently the lowest-scoring pair.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18There you are on 1, and the highest scorers, Jim and Alan, are on 47,
0:12:18 > 0:12:22so, 45 or less keeps you out of harm's way.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24Thankfully, my brother's got a brilliant answer,
0:12:24 > 0:12:27cos I'm not great on this subject,
0:12:27 > 0:12:31but I think I'm going to go for David Lloyd George.
0:12:31 > 0:12:32David Lloyd George.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35OK, not bad at all. There's your Red Line.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Get below that with David Lloyd George
0:12:37 > 0:12:38and through you go to Round Two.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46Well done. You've done it.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48The far podium are doing extremely well.
0:12:48 > 0:12:5213, taking your total up to 14 - our lowest total of the round,
0:12:52 > 0:12:54- by some margin. - Another very good answer, yeah.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Well played, podium four.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59David Lloyd George, of course, all three of his names begin A to M.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01That's very impressive, isn't it?
0:13:01 > 0:13:02Very, very impressive.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06- That is going the extra mile, isn't it?- Although, how about you?
0:13:06 > 0:13:08I haven't really thought about your name. You've got two As.
0:13:08 > 0:13:09- I know.- That's unbelievable.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13- I know. Ah, but still... - You barely trouble the alphabet.
0:13:13 > 0:13:14I know, I know.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16Even C hasn't heard of me,
0:13:16 > 0:13:20but I don't hold the highest political office in the land.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23- That's the trouble.- Not yet. - Yeah, not yet.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25And then this clip will get used, like, a lot,
0:13:25 > 0:13:27when you're Prime Minister,
0:13:27 > 0:13:29and we'll get paid £250 each time it gets used.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32- Oh, that's good.- I'll say, "You'll never be Prime Minister!"
0:13:32 > 0:13:37That's ridiculous. If you're Prime Minister, I will eat my hat.
0:13:37 > 0:13:38- Oh, yeah?- There we go.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42- Oh, that's lots of hat-shaped cakes coming your way.- Exactly right.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45- There we go. Now, Louise, welcome back.- Thank you.- Welcome back.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47Remind us, what do you do, Louise?
0:13:47 > 0:13:49I work for a not-for-profit organisation
0:13:49 > 0:13:52and we take out digital opportunities to the community.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55So, presumably, you're - I mean, digitally speaking -
0:13:55 > 0:13:57you have to be incredibly well-versed.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59You have to know every last thing.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02I do the translation between the techie stuff
0:14:02 > 0:14:05out to the community, so...
0:14:05 > 0:14:07- Right, I see, so you're the go-between.- Yes.
0:14:07 > 0:14:11You're the liaison between the tech, Yatish's end of things...
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- Yes.- ..and the community.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16Right you are. And your interests, aside from that, Louise?
0:14:16 > 0:14:19- I teach drama, so every weekend, I've got...- Lovely.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21I've got two classes that I regularly teach.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Do you do dance and singing as well?
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Yes. Not my... Not my forte.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28We have other teachers who come in and do them, but, yeah,
0:14:28 > 0:14:30we just have a blast. The kids are wonderful, so...
0:14:30 > 0:14:33- What sort of age are the kids? - Right up from...
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Right from 4 right up to 16-17.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39- Wonderful.- So we teach, kind of, three classes per school.- Lovely.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43Now, you're on 23. The high-scorers are still Jim and Alan on 47.
0:14:43 > 0:14:4723 is actually the score you need to get. 23 or less.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50I've got an answer but I'm not convinced
0:14:50 > 0:14:52it's going to be a low-scorer.
0:14:52 > 0:14:53I'm going to go with John Major.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55John Major, says Louise.
0:14:55 > 0:14:56Here's your Red Line.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58If you can get below that
0:14:58 > 0:15:00with John Major, you're into the next round.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Good luck. How many people said John Major?
0:15:05 > 0:15:06It's right.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11Not bad. 53.
0:15:11 > 0:15:1353, well, it's exciting, either way.
0:15:13 > 0:15:1676 is your total. That could be enough to get you through.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20- 1990-97. He beats Gordon Brown. - Mmm.- Mmm.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23- Mmm.- How about that?- Interesting.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Interesting. Now, then, Jim.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Jim, welcome.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30I think I have a hunch I know what you do, but tell us anyway.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32I too am a London firefighter.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35A London firefighter, and where are you based?
0:15:35 > 0:15:36- I'm at Battersea.- Battersea.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38So who...? Where were you together?
0:15:38 > 0:15:39West Norwood.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41- Oh, I see, so you both moved on. - Yeah.- Yeah.
0:15:41 > 0:15:42Is that normal to move on,
0:15:42 > 0:15:44or is it just that you...?
0:15:44 > 0:15:46- It's horses for courses.- Right.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48You know, some people like to stay in one place
0:15:48 > 0:15:49but I've moved around a bit.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51It's quite exciting, though, isn't it?
0:15:51 > 0:15:52Cos in a terrible way,
0:15:52 > 0:15:55it's never short of drama, shall we say?
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Yeah, you'd be surprised at what we still turn out to.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Obviously, a lot of cats, a lot of trees.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02It's a family show, as well.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Yeah. OK. Ah.
0:16:04 > 0:16:05Oh, I hadn't thought about that.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07You need quite a strong stomach,
0:16:07 > 0:16:09- don't you?- Yeah.- Yeah. Now,
0:16:09 > 0:16:13- have you got the STOMACH for this round?- Very good.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15- This is just impeccable stuff, isn't it?- Good stuff.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Now, Jim, yes, what we need is
0:16:17 > 0:16:20a score of 28 or less, Jim.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Come on.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- Edward Heath.- Edward Heath.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28It has to get you below that Red Line. Can he do it?
0:16:31 > 0:16:32It's right.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37Oh, Jim, it's good. Oh, no! GROANING
0:16:37 > 0:16:4030. 30 for Edward Heath.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Takes your total up to 77.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47- You are our current high-scorers. - That was close.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Yeah, Edward Heath, the Tory Prime Minister from '70-'74.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55- Goodness me. Now, then, Dan, welcome, welcome.- Thanks.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Here from London.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58- West London, indeed.- Yeah.
0:16:58 > 0:16:59What do you do, Dan?
0:16:59 > 0:17:02I own a mobile personal training business in West London.
0:17:02 > 0:17:03That's fantastic.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Mobile personal training, so you go round to people's houses
0:17:06 > 0:17:09or gardens or whatever with all your weights.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11I put them in the boot. I don't really...
0:17:11 > 0:17:14- See, that's quite nice, though, isn't it?- Yeah.- Yeah, very nice.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Saves you a trip to the gym, so I come to you.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Saves you time. You can't hide, then, either.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Very good, and you have a whole load of clients.
0:17:20 > 0:17:21- When did you start it?- Yeah.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Started it about five years ago,
0:17:23 > 0:17:24started with just myself, and now
0:17:24 > 0:17:26I've got a team of eight trainers,
0:17:26 > 0:17:27- and we cover the whole of London. - Wow.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29And your interests aside from that,
0:17:29 > 0:17:31does that leave you a lot of time?
0:17:31 > 0:17:35A bit of time. Sports, obviously, football. Wakeboarding as well.
0:17:35 > 0:17:36I like a bit of wakeboarding,
0:17:36 > 0:17:38and I'm into music. I like going to gigs and things,
0:17:38 > 0:17:39- and, yeah.- Excellent.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Now, Dan, there you are.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44We've come to the end of this round, and this is very exciting.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47- You have to score 50 or less. - I know. The pressure is on.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49- 50 or less.- Right...
0:17:49 > 0:17:51I don't know how the score will be,
0:17:51 > 0:17:53but hopefully it's below 50.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55I'm going to go for Anthony Eden.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58Anthony... Oh, there we go, there's that buzz again. LAUGHTER
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Anthony Eden. Anthony Eden, says Dan. Let's see. Here's your Red Line.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03You have to get below that with Anthony Eden. Can you?
0:18:08 > 0:18:11There's your answer. Yes, you can and you do.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13And look at that. 12.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14Well done, you.
0:18:14 > 0:18:1812 is our second-lowest score of the round. Very well done, Dan.
0:18:18 > 0:18:1938 is your total.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22Great play, Dan. From '55-'57, Anthony Eden.
0:18:22 > 0:18:23I'll take you through the low-scorers,
0:18:23 > 0:18:25before we look at the pointless answers.
0:18:25 > 0:18:26Plenty of pointless answers.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29You'd have got 4 for Andrew Bonar Law,
0:18:29 > 0:18:303 for Henry Campbell Bannerman,
0:18:30 > 0:18:33and 1 for Balfour, as we saw, which was a terrific answer.
0:18:33 > 0:18:361 for Spencer Compton and 1 for William Cavendish.
0:18:36 > 0:18:37Lots of pointless answers.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40A lot of these, actually, are the full names of the people
0:18:40 > 0:18:42we know as dukes and earls and marquesses, but...
0:18:42 > 0:18:45so there's some great answers in here.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Charles Grey, who was Earl Grey.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50George Canning, who was only Prime Minister for four months.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52It's a terrific answer. George Grenville.
0:18:53 > 0:18:54George Hamilton Gordon.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Henry Addington is a pointless answer.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59Robert Banks Jenkinson is a pointless answer.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Robert Gascoyne-Cecil - Prime Minister three times.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04William Lamb, William Wyndham Grenville,
0:19:04 > 0:19:06so, all of those are pointless answers.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08Let's take a look at the top three answers -
0:19:08 > 0:19:10the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19- There we are.- But Cameron, only 66.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21That's... I guess people...
0:19:21 > 0:19:24You immediately look back, don't you, if you're asked that question?
0:19:24 > 0:19:26- I suppose you do.- Immediately start looking to history
0:19:26 > 0:19:28- and you kind of forget... - The current incumbent.- Yeah.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Thanks. At the end of our first round,
0:19:30 > 0:19:33the pair who are heading home with our high score, not that far
0:19:33 > 0:19:36in front of the rest of the field, but Jim and Alan, it is you.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39We will see you again next time. We'll look forward to that very much.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42- But meantime, thanks very much, Jim and Alan.- Thank you.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47But for the remaining three pairs, now time for Round Two.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54OK, now we're down to three pairs. At the end of this round,
0:19:54 > 0:19:56we'll have to say goodbye to another of our pairs.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Yatish, congratulations to you.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01Wonderful low score there with Balfour. Great answer, there -
0:20:01 > 0:20:02lowest individual score.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06Well done, Dan. Lovely low-scoring from you as well.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08And Louise and Adrian, well done -
0:20:08 > 0:20:11by one point, here you are in Round Two.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13We've done twice as well as we did last time.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Let's hope it gets you into the head-to-head as well.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Our category for Round Two this afternoon...
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Song Titles. Can you all decide in your pairs,
0:20:22 > 0:20:24who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32OK, and the question concerns...
0:20:34 > 0:20:37- Songs with cities in their title. Richard.- On each board,
0:20:37 > 0:20:40we're going to show you six top-40 hits with cities in their titles.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43We need you to tell us the name of the act who had the top-40 hit
0:20:43 > 0:20:45with them, in the year shown, please.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47- We're going to show you their initials, as well.- Very good.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50So, who had hits with these songs with cities in their titles?
0:20:50 > 0:20:52And our first board reads like this...
0:21:08 > 0:21:10So, we have...
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Holly, it's over to you.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23OK, it's not as bad as I thought it would be.
0:21:23 > 0:21:24I do know a few.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26I'm going to go for the most recent one,
0:21:26 > 0:21:29which is Budapest - George Ezra.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30- George Ezra, says Holly.- Yeah.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Let's see if that's right and let's see how many people said George Ezra.
0:21:35 > 0:21:36Absolutely right.
0:21:41 > 0:21:42Good answer, Holly.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Look at that. 16 for George Ezra.
0:21:44 > 0:21:45Great start to the round.
0:21:47 > 0:21:48That's a great song, that, as well.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51He's got a little scar on his forehead, George Ezra,
0:21:51 > 0:21:53which he got when he was in college,
0:21:53 > 0:21:56and Marky Ramone from the Ramones was doing a lecture,
0:21:56 > 0:21:58and he wanted to go there so much
0:21:58 > 0:22:00that he actually smacked his head running to the lecture.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02He cut it open, but he didn't want to miss the lecture,
0:22:02 > 0:22:04so sat through it for an hour,
0:22:04 > 0:22:06and, obviously, by the end of that hour,
0:22:06 > 0:22:08he was in need of quite serious medical attention...
0:22:08 > 0:22:12- Wow.- ..and had a scar to remember it by.- That's a good story.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- Bet he just fell off his bike, but still...- Oh, yeah, he probably did.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Oh, it's a great story. Now, Adrian.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Adrian, what would you like to go for?
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Better get this right...
0:22:21 > 0:22:23You better had.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Tulips From Amsterdam -
0:22:25 > 0:22:26Max Bygraves.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Max Bygraves, says Adrian.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36It's right. Now, 16 is our only score at this point.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38Max Bygraves...
0:22:38 > 0:22:3926.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46- Yeah, the George Ezra of his day. - LAUGHTER
0:22:46 > 0:22:49He got his little scar, the Beverley Sisters were giving a talk
0:22:49 > 0:22:51and he ran into a thing and...
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Thanks very much, Richard.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56Now, Yatish, do you fancy talking us through this whole board,
0:22:56 > 0:22:59- and seeing how many of them you can fill in?- I'll try.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01I think Vienna is Ultravox.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04Tony Christie - Is This The Way To Amarillo.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Don't know the bottom one,
0:23:06 > 0:23:09but I'm going to go for Walking In Memphis,
0:23:09 > 0:23:12which I think is Mark Cohn.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Mark Cohn, says Yatish. Let's see if that's right,
0:23:14 > 0:23:19and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Mark Cohn.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21It's right.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23Well, 26, our high score. 16 our low.
0:23:23 > 0:23:24It's a low-scoring round.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26You pass both of those.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27Down you go to 6.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29Once again, that far podium looking
0:23:29 > 0:23:31pretty masterful at this point.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Best answer on the board, Yatish.
0:23:34 > 0:23:35Yatish is good, isn't he?
0:23:35 > 0:23:38- He's very good.- Very, very good.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Vienna is Ultravox.
0:23:40 > 0:23:41- It's quite a low score - 39.- Really?
0:23:41 > 0:23:44- I thought that would score loads. - Look at that, 39.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47You're right about Tony Christie - Is This The Way To Amarillo?
0:23:47 > 0:23:4845 points for that.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50And can you have a guess at Tokyo Joe, with those initials?
0:23:50 > 0:23:52It's Bryan Ferry.
0:23:52 > 0:23:53Bryan Ferry is the right answer,
0:23:53 > 0:23:56- and that would have scored 12. - Yeah. Thanks very much.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.
0:23:59 > 0:24:016, very well done, Yatish and Hemisha,
0:24:01 > 0:24:03looking very strong. Then up to 16, Holly and Dan.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04Now, Adrian and Louise,
0:24:04 > 0:24:07you're out in front again. 26. I don't know how that happened.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09- Max Bygraves let you down a bit. - Yeah.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12I thought he might have gone further down the column,
0:24:12 > 0:24:14but he didn't, which puts pressure on you, Louise.
0:24:14 > 0:24:15Good luck with this next board.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17We're going to come back down the line now.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:24:21 > 0:24:24OK, let's put six more songs with cities in their titles
0:24:24 > 0:24:26up on the board, and here they are.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43I'll read those all one last time.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01Well, now, Hemisha.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03- Are you happy with this board?- Much.
0:25:03 > 0:25:04I didn't know any on the last board.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06Oh, phew.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09I know three on this board.
0:25:09 > 0:25:13I think the lowest would probably be the bottom one - TBS.
0:25:13 > 0:25:14The Beautiful South.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17The Beautiful South, says Hemisha.
0:25:17 > 0:25:18Now, here is your Red Line.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21If you can get below that, you're into the head-to-head for sure.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23How many people said The Beautiful South?
0:25:30 > 0:25:33GROANING 30 for the beautiful South.
0:25:33 > 0:25:34I think that's good enough.
0:25:34 > 0:25:3636 is your total.
0:25:36 > 0:25:37It's a good answer, Hemisha.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Just one of a string of just absurdly catchy songs
0:25:40 > 0:25:43- that The Beautiful South released. - There we are.
0:25:43 > 0:25:47- Now, Louise, you know what you have to do here.- I know.
0:25:47 > 0:25:499 or less, if you can do it.
0:25:49 > 0:25:53I'm feeling the pressure and I don't think I've got a low enough answer,
0:25:53 > 0:25:57so I'm going to go with London Calling and The Clash.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59OK, The Clash says Louise.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01The Clash. Here's your Red Line. You have to get below that.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04It's quite low, but maybe The Clash will get you down there.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Let's find out.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10It's right.
0:26:13 > 0:26:1648. 48 takes your total up to 74.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21- Well, the round's not over. - Yeah, a high score for a great song.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23They play that at Fulham at half-time.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25I think they play it at a lot of the London clubs,
0:26:25 > 0:26:28but we're the ones who "live by the river", so it's really ours,
0:26:28 > 0:26:29and the other London clubs
0:26:29 > 0:26:32- should not be allowed to play it. - Shouldn't really, no,
0:26:32 > 0:26:34unless they can demonstrate some lyric from the song
0:26:34 > 0:26:36- that is of relevance.- Yeah, exactly,
0:26:36 > 0:26:38and "I live by the river". That's us.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40Arsenal were playing it the other day,
0:26:40 > 0:26:42and I thought, "You don't live by a river."
0:26:42 > 0:26:44Well, thank you, Richard. Now, Dan.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47Dan, a little bit of pressure off you, now, at this point.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49You have to score 57 or less.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51Talk us through the board, if you can.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Belfast Child, I'm not too keen on.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Either... The one below that, either.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Stranger In Moscow is Michael Jackson,
0:26:58 > 0:27:01and Munich, I have a feeling it's Editors.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04I'm going to go with Editors - Munich.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06OK, Editors, says Dan.
0:27:06 > 0:27:07Here's your Red Line.
0:27:07 > 0:27:08Quite nice and high.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10If you can get below that with Editors, through you go.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13It just has to be right, I would say. Is it?
0:27:15 > 0:27:16It is.
0:27:18 > 0:27:22And you're through. Well done. Head-to-head.
0:27:22 > 0:27:23Oh, it's a great answer - 5.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26Once again, we have a brilliant answer from the near podium.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Very well played, Dan.
0:27:28 > 0:27:2921 is your total.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32Brilliant, Dan. Best answer on the board. Terrific play.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35Of course, the lead singer of Editors is the Smith from
0:27:35 > 0:27:38- Smith & Burrows, our favourite group.- Of course, yeah.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40That's nice, isn't it? He's got a lovely voice.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43Now, Belfast Child is Simple Minds.
0:27:45 > 0:27:4719 points for that.
0:27:47 > 0:27:48What an awful lot of people,
0:27:48 > 0:27:50myself included, consider to be
0:27:50 > 0:27:51the greatest song ever written,
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Wichita Lineman, is Glen Campbell.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56- Glen Campbell, yeah.- Very well done if you said that - 17.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00And, Stranger In Moscow is, of course, Michael Jackson,
0:28:00 > 0:28:02and that would have scored 37.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Thank you very much, Richard, so at the end of our second round,
0:28:05 > 0:28:06the pair who are heading home...
0:28:06 > 0:28:08You've done twice as well as you did last time.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10Again, you haven't put a foot wrong.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13Nothing, no incorrect answers. You're just our high-scorers.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Louise and Adrian, we have to say goodbye to you.
0:28:15 > 0:28:16It's been great having you on the show.
0:28:16 > 0:28:20- Thank you so much for playing, Louise and Adrian.- Thank you.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23But for Hemisha and Yatish, Holly and Dan,
0:28:23 > 0:28:26it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28CHEERING
0:28:30 > 0:28:32Very well done, Hemisha and Yatish, Holly and Dan.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35You're now one step closer to the final and a chance
0:28:35 > 0:28:39to play for our jackpot, which is still standing at £1,000.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42Well, this is where we decide who goes through to the final
0:28:42 > 0:28:45and plays for that jackpot. You can now start playing as teams.
0:28:45 > 0:28:46The first pair to win two questions
0:28:46 > 0:28:48will be playing for that £1,000 jackpot.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50Well, do you know what?
0:28:50 > 0:28:52This is a clash of the titans - our bookend titans.
0:28:52 > 0:28:55We've had really good low scores from each of you,
0:28:55 > 0:28:57so this, I think, will be very, very interesting.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59Best of luck to both pairs. Couldn't call this one.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01Let's play the head-to-head.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:29:07 > 0:29:10OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:29:12 > 0:29:15Famous Julias, Richard.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17We are going to show you five pictures now of famous people
0:29:17 > 0:29:18called Julia.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21We need you to tell us the most obscure, please,
0:29:21 > 0:29:23- but we are going to need surnames as well, I'm afraid.- Ugh!
0:29:23 > 0:29:26- If you just say Julia, it's not... - Oh, no.- Otherwise... You know what?
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Otherwise I'd just think, "You know what? They could be cheating."
0:29:29 > 0:29:31"They're going to go for 'C - Julia', I think."
0:29:32 > 0:29:36OK, let's reveal our Julias, and here they come,
0:29:36 > 0:29:38a bunch of Julias, starting with...
0:29:58 > 0:30:02There we are - five Julias.
0:30:02 > 0:30:03Now, Hemisha and Yatish,
0:30:03 > 0:30:04you've been our low-scorers
0:30:04 > 0:30:06throughout the show,
0:30:06 > 0:30:07so you will go first.
0:30:07 > 0:30:08Feel free to confer.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10OK, had a good look at that.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12I think we know a couple.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15And I think we'll stick with
0:30:15 > 0:30:17the politics theme and go for E
0:30:17 > 0:30:19- and Julia Gillard.- Julia Gillard,
0:30:19 > 0:30:21say Hemisha and Yatish.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Julia Gillard. Now, then, Holly and Dan, the board's all yours.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27- Talk us through the Julias. - Well, how many Julias do you know?
0:30:27 > 0:30:29I know one Julia on the board,
0:30:29 > 0:30:30so, unfortunately,
0:30:30 > 0:30:32we can't talk you through any more.
0:30:32 > 0:30:34Talk us through the one you know.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36The one we know - C is Julia Roberts.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38It's going to be high, though, isn't it?
0:30:38 > 0:30:39I feel like I should know B, but...
0:30:39 > 0:30:42- Julia Brown?- No...
0:30:42 > 0:30:43No idea. Julia Roberts.
0:30:43 > 0:30:45OK, C - Julia Roberts.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47So, we have Julia Gillard and Julia Roberts.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49Hemisha and Yatish said Julia Gillard.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55It's right.
0:31:01 > 0:31:03- 5. - CHEERING
0:31:04 > 0:31:06Good answer. Good score.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09Holly and Dan, meanwhile, have said that C is Julia Roberts.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11Let's see how many people said that.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16It's right. Ooh, 88.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:31:18 > 0:31:21Well, you either know your Julias or you don't.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23Hemisha and Yatish, very well done.
0:31:23 > 0:31:24After one question, you're up one-nil.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27Hemisha and Yatish are a machine. That's another great answer.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29Yeah, of course, that's the first
0:31:29 > 0:31:31female Australian Prime Minister, Julia Gillard.
0:31:31 > 0:31:35- She's going to be played in the film of her life by Julia Roberts. - LAUGHTER
0:31:36 > 0:31:38- That'll be nice.- She's not really.
0:31:38 > 0:31:39She's going to be played by Jodie Foster.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42- Now, A is...- Julia McKenzie.
0:31:42 > 0:31:43The lovely Julia McKenzie.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45I bet you've worked with Julia McKenzie.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47- I have worked with Julia McKenzie, yeah.- 26 points.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49- B is...- Julia Sawalha.
0:31:49 > 0:31:50Julia Sawalha, yeah,
0:31:50 > 0:31:53and that would have scored you 47.
0:31:53 > 0:31:57Now, D, she was Children's Laureate, author of the Gruffalo...
0:31:57 > 0:31:59- Julia Donaldson.- Julia Donaldson.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02That's a pointless answer, so very well done if you said that.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04Brilliant. Thank you very much, indeed.
0:32:04 > 0:32:05OK, here comes your second question.
0:32:05 > 0:32:07Holly and Dan, you get to answer it first,
0:32:07 > 0:32:09but you have to win it to stay in the game.
0:32:09 > 0:32:10It concerns...
0:32:13 > 0:32:15Cured Meats, Richard.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17We're going to show you five types of cured meat now,
0:32:17 > 0:32:19but with alternate letters removed.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22- Can you recure them, please? - Oh, good.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25- And give us the most obscure answer. - Thank you very much.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29OK, here come our cured meats with bites taken out, and we have...
0:32:45 > 0:32:47Holly and Dan will go first.
0:32:47 > 0:32:50- Is that how you say it? - Yeah, yeah, that's how you say it.
0:32:50 > 0:32:51Erm...
0:32:51 > 0:32:54- You say it.- Go on.- OK, prosciutto.
0:32:54 > 0:32:55Prosciutt-io or pros-kiutt-io
0:32:55 > 0:32:57is the one we are going to go for, I think,
0:32:57 > 0:32:59cos that's the only one we can really pick out
0:32:59 > 0:33:01that might be slightly obscure-ish.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03OK, "prosciutt-io", you're going to go for.
0:33:03 > 0:33:06Right, now, then, Hemisha and Yatish.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09- Erm, it's a tricky one, that.- Yeah.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12I think that's one that we, kind of, are guessing,
0:33:12 > 0:33:15but we're not sure the pronunciation. Erm...
0:33:15 > 0:33:17Erm, we'll go for the third one.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19- Yeah.- Pancetta.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21OK, pancetta. So, we have,
0:33:21 > 0:33:23from Holly and Stan, we have "prosciutt-io".
0:33:23 > 0:33:27Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said "prosciutt-io".
0:33:31 > 0:33:36I'm really sorry. I'm afraid that's very minutely wrong.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39Hemisha and Yatish have gone for pancetta. Let's see if that's right.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41Let's see how many people said pancetta.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47That's right, which is all it needed to be.
0:33:49 > 0:33:5122.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55And that means, after only two questions,
0:33:55 > 0:33:58Hemisha and Yatish, you are through to the final, two-nil.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00Yeah, it's just prosciutto - "prosciutt-io", in a normal round,
0:34:00 > 0:34:03we might have taken, but given we've shown you the letters
0:34:03 > 0:34:05that are missed out, we couldn't take it.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07Would have scored you too many points, anyway.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09- Oh, that's fine.- OK. - It would have scored you 43.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11Now, how good are you on this?
0:34:11 > 0:34:13I bet you this is a thing you're rather good at.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15The bottom is...
0:34:15 > 0:34:18- It looks like steak... - ..speck.- ..but it's speck.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21Absolutely, that would have scored you 4 points.
0:34:21 > 0:34:23The top is bresaola. Bresaola.
0:34:23 > 0:34:26Bresaola, yeah, that would have scored you 2 points.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28Cured, air-dried beef, that is,
0:34:28 > 0:34:30and this other one,
0:34:30 > 0:34:31very well done at home
0:34:31 > 0:34:33if you said guanciale.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36- Guanciale.- There you go. Yeah. - It's a pointless answer.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Terrific answer as well.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42It's pork, but they marinate it in salt and pepper and chilli
0:34:42 > 0:34:44and sometimes sugar for, like, a month,
0:34:44 > 0:34:47- and then...- And then throw it out. - ..send it to you.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49- Throw it out. - LAUGHTER
0:34:49 > 0:34:50Stick it on some bacon and lovely.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53- Mmm.- Mmm. Oh! LAUGHTER
0:34:53 > 0:34:54Thank you very much, indeed.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:34:57 > 0:34:58Holly and Dan, it is you.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00Such a strong performance all the way through.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02It's great news for us, cos it means we get
0:35:02 > 0:35:03to see you again next time.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06We know you'll do just as well, if not better then.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08But, meantime, thanks very much for playing.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11Holly and Dan, great contestants.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14But for Hemisha and Yatish, it's time for our Pointless final.
0:35:16 > 0:35:20CHEERING
0:35:20 > 0:35:21Well, congratulations, Hemisha and Yatish.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24You've seen off all your rivals,
0:35:24 > 0:35:27and you have carried off the coveted Pointless trophy,
0:35:27 > 0:35:29- so very well done, indeed.- Thank you.
0:35:34 > 0:35:37- Thank you.- You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot...- Yeah.
0:35:37 > 0:35:41..and at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,000.
0:35:41 > 0:35:43There we are, but just staggering play.
0:35:43 > 0:35:45I mean, really, really faultless.
0:35:45 > 0:35:49Lowest score in Round One, lowest score in Round Two with Mark Cohn,
0:35:49 > 0:35:50and Balfour in Round One.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52Then, in the head-to-head,
0:35:52 > 0:35:54we had some great low scores from you as well,
0:35:54 > 0:35:57- so, I mean, absolutely faultless Pointless performance.- Thank you.
0:35:57 > 0:36:00Anything in particular you'd want to see come up in this last round?
0:36:00 > 0:36:01I'm not sure, really.
0:36:01 > 0:36:04- No, it's...- I think something Geography, or maybe Movies.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07Something like that might be good. Maybe Sport. It's a tricky one.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09It's all a bit of a blur at the moment in our minds, so...
0:36:09 > 0:36:12- We're shocked. - We're just kind of hoping, you know.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15- OK, let's hope there's something on the board you like the look of.- Yeah.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18Today's selection reads like this. We've got...
0:36:23 > 0:36:26I don't think Japan, right?
0:36:26 > 0:36:28- No, and not Modern Writers. - Not Modern Writers.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31- Number 12 in film? Probably not. - 20...?
0:36:31 > 0:36:34- Should we got for 2015 Sporting Events, yeah?- OK, yeah.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36I think, by process of elimination,
0:36:36 > 0:36:38I think we'll go for 2015 Sporting Tournaments.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40- OK, let's see what is there. - OK, good luck.
0:36:40 > 0:36:43You've been absolutely sensational throughout the whole show.
0:36:43 > 0:36:47I hope you can continue that run with one of these three questions.
0:36:47 > 0:36:48We are looking for...
0:36:54 > 0:36:56So, any team in the last 16 of either of those.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03Or any players in...
0:37:07 > 0:37:11So, football teams in the last 16 of the FA Cup or League Cup,
0:37:11 > 0:37:14male players in the last 16 of the BDO or PDC World Darts Championships
0:37:14 > 0:37:17or players in the last 16 Men's or Women's Singles Championships
0:37:17 > 0:37:20at the Australian Open. Very best of luck.
0:37:20 > 0:37:22OK, now, as always, you've got up to a minute
0:37:22 > 0:37:24to come up with three answers.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26All you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those answers
0:37:26 > 0:37:30- to turn out pointless. Are you ready?- Yes.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock,
0:37:32 > 0:37:33and there they are.
0:37:33 > 0:37:34Your time starts now.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36- OK.- OK, I think, definitely not the football.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39- Or darts.- That'd be just completely guessing on that -
0:37:39 > 0:37:40FA Cup and the League Cup.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43I might know a couple like Derby County and Nottingham Forest,
0:37:43 > 0:37:45I was thinking of, but I think both of those
0:37:45 > 0:37:47- will be just pure guesses. - No, no.- Stick with tennis?
0:37:47 > 0:37:51- Yeah, stick with tennis. Women's?- Women's.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53Victoria Azarenka.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55Yeah. Agnieszka Radwanska.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57Yeah.
0:37:57 > 0:38:01- The girl who won Wimbledon last year, Petra Kvitova.- Yeah.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03And I can't remember the other one I had, Vera...
0:38:03 > 0:38:06- Vera Zvonareva.- Vera Zvonareva.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08I think that would be a...
0:38:08 > 0:38:10- Yeah.- I don't know how well they did in the Australian
0:38:10 > 0:38:13- cos I just watched the Men's final, so...- No, I don't.- Erm...
0:38:13 > 0:38:16- Just going on past performance. - I think I'm just going on past,
0:38:16 > 0:38:18- last year's Wimbledon. - Yeah, what about men's?
0:38:18 > 0:38:20Men's... Tomas Berdych. Stan Wawrinka.
0:38:20 > 0:38:22It's just the obvious ones.
0:38:22 > 0:38:27- I think they may be low rather than pointless.- Ten seconds left.
0:38:27 > 0:38:28Yeah, shall we stick with the women?
0:38:28 > 0:38:30Yeah, so not Victoria.
0:38:30 > 0:38:34Shall we go for Agnieszka, Vera, Petra, maybe?
0:38:34 > 0:38:35OK, that's your time up.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37- Let's have your three answers.- OK.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40And it sounds like all three of them are going to be women tennis
0:38:40 > 0:38:43- players in the Australian Open. - I think so. I think so.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45- We'll go for all three for the last category...- OK.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47..and we'll go for Petra Kvitova...
0:38:47 > 0:38:48Petra Kvitova.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50..Agnieszka Radwanska...
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Agnieszka Radwanska.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55- ..and Vera Zvonareva.- Zvonareva.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57And Vera Zvonareva. OK, three great answers.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59Like a collection of Bond girls, though, I think.
0:38:59 > 0:39:03Absolutely, or an awful lot of Scrabble letters. You'll win a lot.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06Erm, of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:06 > 0:39:09- You know what? I think Petra...- Petra Kvitova.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11- Petra Kvitova.- Petra goes last. - I think so.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13- Least likely to be pointless? - Probably Agnieszka,
0:39:13 > 0:39:15because I don't even know if she did that well.
0:39:15 > 0:39:17- OK, Agnieszka goes first. - Yeah, I think so.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19OK, well, let's put those answers up on the board
0:39:19 > 0:39:22in that order, then, and here they are.
0:39:22 > 0:39:23We have got...
0:39:28 > 0:39:29Very, very best of luck.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32Three great answers up on the board, there.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34Now, let's hope at least one of those is pointless
0:39:34 > 0:39:35and you win that jackpot.
0:39:35 > 0:39:39What would you do with your share of the jackpot, Hemisha?
0:39:39 > 0:39:40Probably go on a really nice holiday.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43I've always wanted to see the Northern lights in Iceland,
0:39:43 > 0:39:44so it'd probably go towards that.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47Wonderful. Yatish, how about you?
0:39:47 > 0:39:49I'd like to go travelling, as well, but South America.
0:39:49 > 0:39:50I've not been there before.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53I'd like to do the Inca Trail. Definitely, yeah.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56Perfect. Wonderful. Let's hope one of these answers is pointless
0:39:56 > 0:39:57and wins that jackpot for you.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00Your first answer was Agnieszka Radwanska.
0:40:00 > 0:40:04In this case - well, in fact, all cases - we were looking for the
0:40:04 > 0:40:08last 16 in the Women's Singles Tennis Championships at the Australian Open.
0:40:08 > 0:40:12It has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot of £1,000.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15Let's see how many of our 100 people have said Agnieszka Radwanska.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20- It's right.- Oh, surprising.
0:40:20 > 0:40:21OK, well, that's good news.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23Good shot in the arm at this stage.
0:40:23 > 0:40:24If this goes all the way down to 0,
0:40:24 > 0:40:26you will leave with our jackpot of £1,000.
0:40:26 > 0:40:27Agnieszka Radwanska
0:40:27 > 0:40:29taking us down to single figures.
0:40:29 > 0:40:30Down it goes. Still going down.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32You've got it! Straight in. Look at that!
0:40:32 > 0:40:34- Unbelievable! - CHEERING
0:40:34 > 0:40:36- Very, very well done, indeed. - I can't believe it.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39- Absolutely fantastic. Very well done. Brilliant.- Oh, my God.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44Well, that was effortless. Look at that. Congratulations.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47Agnieszka Radwanska was a pointless answer,
0:40:47 > 0:40:50which means you go home with our jackpot of £1,000. Superb.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Hemisha and Yatish.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56Well, goodness me.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59What a performance, right from the word go. Terrific stuff. You also...
0:40:59 > 0:41:01Even pronounced her name properly,
0:41:01 > 0:41:03which means we didn't have to worry about to give it or not,
0:41:03 > 0:41:05but Radwanska, perfect answer.
0:41:05 > 0:41:09Now, Petra Kvitova and Vera Zvonareva...
0:41:09 > 0:41:13- were both incorrect.- Oh, really?- Oh! - First time you put a foot wrong,
0:41:13 > 0:41:15because you put them in the wrong order.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18- They were our bankers.- Imagine the jeopardy if you put those two first.
0:41:18 > 0:41:19Zvonareva was beaten by Serena Williams.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22Kvitova was beaten by one of the pointless answers we'll give you.
0:41:22 > 0:41:24Now, let's take a look at the pointless answers
0:41:24 > 0:41:26in the different categories.
0:41:26 > 0:41:27So, we'll start with football.
0:41:27 > 0:41:30Brighton and Hove Albion were in the last 16 of the League Cup.
0:41:30 > 0:41:33Fulham were beaten by Derby County in the last 16 of the League Cup -
0:41:33 > 0:41:36just yet another highlight in a wonderful season for us.
0:41:36 > 0:41:38There's Preston North End.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40FA Cup, lost to Man United in the last 16,
0:41:40 > 0:41:44and Shrewsbury Town, they were in the last 16 of the League Cup,
0:41:44 > 0:41:45lost to Chelsea, and Derby County,
0:41:45 > 0:41:47the only other pointless answer there.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50Now, lots of darts players were pointless answers.
0:41:50 > 0:41:51Darryl Fitton, Robbie Green.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54You could have had Scott Waites - Scotty "Too Hotty" Waites.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56Vincent Van Der Voort.
0:41:56 > 0:41:59In fact, the only people who scored points on that one are Phil Taylor,
0:41:59 > 0:42:01obviously, scored points, got 31. Gary Anderson scored 7.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03Raymond van Barneveld would have scored you 7.
0:42:03 > 0:42:05Michael van Gerwin - 6.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07Martin "Wolfie" Adams would have scored you 5,
0:42:07 > 0:42:09and 1 point for Stephen Bunting, Adrian Lewis
0:42:09 > 0:42:11and the BDO champion Scott Mitchell.
0:42:11 > 0:42:14Very well done if you said anyone other than those.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16If you said those, well done,
0:42:16 > 0:42:18but everyone else was a pointless answer.
0:42:18 > 0:42:21Let's take a look at the tennis players.
0:42:21 > 0:42:25Eugenie Bouchard, who lost to Sharapova in the quarterfinals.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27Kei Nishikori, one of the men on the list.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29Madison Keys, who beat Kvitova,
0:42:29 > 0:42:31and Nick Kyrgios, a pointless answer.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34Loads of other pointless answers - Andreas Seppi, Bernard Tomic,
0:42:34 > 0:42:36Ekaterina Makarova...
0:42:36 > 0:42:38You could have had Feliciano Lopez,
0:42:38 > 0:42:40Gilles Muller, Yanina Wickmayer...
0:42:40 > 0:42:42Lots and lots of pointless answers in there,
0:42:42 > 0:42:45but Radwanska, a terrific first answer.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47Brilliant performance from start to finish.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50I'm so sorry we don't have a £90,000 jackpot to give you,
0:42:50 > 0:42:53- but better than a slap in the face, isn't it?- It's all right.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55- £1,000 in your back pocket.- Ta. - Very good.
0:42:55 > 0:42:59Well, thanks, Richard, and thanks, once again, to our winning players,
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Hemisha and Yatish, who go away with today's jackpot of £1,000.
0:43:01 > 0:43:04Very well done. APPLAUSE
0:43:05 > 0:43:07Well, join us next time,
0:43:07 > 0:43:10when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:12 > 0:43:14..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:43:14 > 0:43:17APPLAUSE
