0:00:15 > 0:00:18APPLAUSE
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 > 0:00:27the show that makes big winners out of the lowest scorers.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29Let's meet today's players.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31APPLAUSE
0:00:33 > 0:00:34And couple number one.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38Hello there, my name's Sue, this is my husband Ralph, we're from York.
0:00:38 > 0:00:39Couple number two.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Hi, I'm Chris, this is my friend Illy,
0:00:41 > 0:00:43and we're work colleagues from Blackpool.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45- Couple number three. - Hi, my name's Joanna,
0:00:45 > 0:00:48and this is my daughter Polly, and we're from Birmingham.
0:00:48 > 0:00:49And finally, couple number four.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Alistair, this is my sister Lucy,
0:00:51 > 0:00:53and we are from South East London.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55And these are today's contestants.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57APPLAUSE
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Well, thank you very much indeed. A very warm welcome to you all.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03We will get to chat to each of you throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Angling for his own superhero movie spin-off,
0:01:08 > 0:01:10but apparently, pedantry isn't a proper power.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Hiya. Hi, everybody.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17APPLAUSE
0:01:17 > 0:01:19- Did you say "ped-antry"?- Pedantry.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20It's pee-dantry. Goodness me.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22LAUGHTER
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Er, if I was a superhero, I'd be called Os-Man.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26Yeah, good. Os-Man.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28And you can be Arm Strong.
0:01:28 > 0:01:29AUDIENCE GROAN
0:01:29 > 0:01:32It already sounds like a superhero name, doesn't it? Wait a minute!
0:01:32 > 0:01:34LAUGHTER
0:01:34 > 0:01:36It sounds to me like the box office is not going too well
0:01:36 > 0:01:39- for Os-Man and Arm Strong. - I don't know.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Goodness me. Now, we've got only one returning pair
0:01:41 > 0:01:43from our last show, and we didn't see enough of them.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46It's Chris and Illy on podium two. They're very entertaining,
0:01:46 > 0:01:49but got knocked out, unluckily, in Round One. I say unluckily.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51They got a wrong answer, but it's kind of unlucky.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53I can see where the wrong answer came from, Illy.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Round One, it's not going to be everybody's cup of tea.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Perfect for some people, damage limitation for others,
0:02:00 > 0:02:03- I would suggest. - OK, not everyone's cup of tea.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Well, Nancy and Alfred - let's just cheer ourselves up -
0:02:06 > 0:02:09didn't win the jackpot, very sad for Nancy and Alfred, but quite exciting.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12It means we add another £1,000 to that, so today's jackpot is,
0:02:12 > 0:02:16it's swelling slightly, we have a jackpot of £2,000.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Look at that. APPLAUSE
0:02:19 > 0:02:22Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28There's only one rule you have to remember,
0:02:28 > 0:02:31and it is this - the pair with the highest score at the end of each
0:02:31 > 0:02:37round will be eliminated, so do what you can not to be that pair.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39OK, our first category this afternoon is...
0:02:41 > 0:02:43THEY LAUGH
0:02:43 > 0:02:45There we are, everyone's cup of tea, football.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46Podium two seem very happy with that.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second,
0:02:49 > 0:02:52and whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59OK, let's find out what that question is. Here it comes.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:03:06 > 0:03:08..as they could.
0:03:08 > 0:03:102014-2015 Champions League teams.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13That's not so bad, a sort of geography question, isn't it?
0:03:13 > 0:03:15- Not really. - LAUGHTER
0:03:15 > 0:03:17We are looking for the name of any clubs who qualified
0:03:17 > 0:03:21for the last 32 of the 2014-2015 Champions League, please.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23- Very best of luck. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Now, Sue, welcome. You're from York.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27- Thank you.- What do you do, Sue? - I'm retired now.
0:03:27 > 0:03:31I retired eight years ago. I was a marketing manager in a university.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33- At the University of York?- Yes, yes.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37University of York out there, so people knew it was there and knew to apply?
0:03:37 > 0:03:39My particular speciality was health sciences,
0:03:39 > 0:03:41so we were recruiting people to work as nurses and mid...
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- to train as nurses and midwives. - Up at York, very good.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47And you've been retired eight years. What have you been doing with your retirement?
0:03:47 > 0:03:50Since then, I've done a PhD and written a book.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Yeah, OK, you haven't really done that much then, have you(?)
0:03:53 > 0:03:57Just a different kind of work, I suppose. But fun. What's your book on?
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Well, it's based on the research, which is railway history. York's a good place to study that.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03It's a great place for railway history, absolutely.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05Railway history and Vikings, two things you can find in York.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07OK, now, Sue...
0:04:07 > 0:04:11Football. Champions League Teams, 2014-15.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14This isn't brilliant for me, but we are Sunderland supporters,
0:04:14 > 0:04:17but unfortunately they weren't in the Champions League.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19- I'm going to go for Feyenoord.- Feyenoord.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21OK, let's see if that's right,
0:04:21 > 0:04:23let's see how many of our 100 people said it if it is...
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Oh, I'm sorry, Sue. Do you know what, I bet it's not
0:04:29 > 0:04:33the last of those we see this round, but I'm afraid it is 100 points.
0:04:33 > 0:04:38Sorry, Sue. I tell you what, it's an admirably impressive wrong answer.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41It's a very specific wrong answer, Feyenoord, you know,
0:04:41 > 0:04:44they have played many, many times in Europe, Feyenoord,
0:04:44 > 0:04:47but not in this, I'm afraid.
0:04:47 > 0:04:51Thanks very much indeed. So, Chris. Welcome back.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- We discovered last time you're a train driver.- I am, yes.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58Which is just too exciting for words. How long have you been driving?
0:04:58 > 0:05:01I've been driving just over three years now.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03OK, were you on the services before that?
0:05:03 > 0:05:07Yes, I was in the same job as Illy, so beforehand I was a conductor.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10Have you always wanted to go up to the front of the train?
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Yeah, to be fair, there's where I wanted to be.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16- It's a good place to be.- Oh, isn't it? It's a fantastic place to be.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20Right, what would you like to go for, Chris? Champions League 2014-15.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Well, yeah, I've got a couple of options.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27One sticks out because, if I remember rightly, there was some
0:05:27 > 0:05:31interesting history behind where they had to play their games,
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- so I'm going to go Shakhtar Donetsk. - Shakhtar Donetsk.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Shakhtar Donetsk.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41Let's see if it's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44It is right, Chris.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50I think that's a very good answer.
0:05:50 > 0:05:524, very well done indeed, Chris.
0:05:52 > 0:05:53APPLAUSE
0:05:53 > 0:05:55I think Round Two beckons.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Yeah, reached the last 16, Shakhtar Donetsk. Very well played.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04Thank you, Richard. Now, then, Joanna. Welcome here from Birmingham.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07- What do you do, Joanna? - I'm a clinical nurse specialist.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09And what kind of specialism?
0:06:09 > 0:06:12I work with ladies who are newly diagnosed with breast cancer.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16- OK, and how long have you done that? - Erm, about 15 years.
0:06:16 > 0:06:20Right, I see, and what are your interests outside medicine?
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Well, I do like gardening, I like interior design,
0:06:23 > 0:06:25I do quite like to do a little bit of running.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Now, when you say interior design, does that mean your own house
0:06:28 > 0:06:31or have you been entrusted with the interiors of others?
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- Oh, no, my own house.- I see, OK.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- Very good. Do you feel a room is ever finished, or do you...?- No.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40- No, you're always working. - Always primping and preening. - A work in progress. Very good.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43Now, Joanna, what would you like to go for?
0:06:43 > 0:06:46Yes, I'm just going to say Bayern Munich.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Bayern Munich, says Joanna.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Bayern Munich. Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Perfectly respectable answer there, Joanna, very well done indeed.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Bayern Munich, down it goes.
0:06:59 > 0:07:0029.
0:07:00 > 0:07:01APPLAUSE
0:07:01 > 0:07:02That'll do.
0:07:04 > 0:07:08Yeah, just semifinalists, that year, Bayern Munich. They're from Munich.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Oh, I see. LAUGHTER
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- That's where the name comes from. - Right. Yes. Yes.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16They moved. They were originally called Bayern Wolverhampton.
0:07:16 > 0:07:17LAUGHTER
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- And then moved to Munich. - Thank you very much, Richard.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23- OK, now, Lucy, a warm welcome to you, from London.- Yes.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- What do you do, Lucy?- Erm, I work in research and brand strategy.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28You're a sort of independent agency, are you?
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Yeah, I work in a small agency in Soho. We do qualitative...
0:07:31 > 0:07:34well, I do qualitative research, so focus groups, interviews,
0:07:34 > 0:07:36- that sort of thing. - Questionnaires and things like that?
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Well, because it's qualitative, it's more discursive,
0:07:39 > 0:07:41so it's more like having a group of people and getting them
0:07:41 > 0:07:44to all discuss something and feed off each other.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47It's a lot of coffee, isn't it? A lot of sitting around with some coffee.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- Yeah, it's quite relaxed. - Coffee and pastries.- Yeah.- Very nice.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51Lucy. Champions League Teams.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54I'm not sure what the Champions League is,
0:07:54 > 0:07:56so I'm guessing it's European football teams,
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- so I'm going to guess Inter Milan.- Inter Milan.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Inter Milan, says Lucy.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Let's see if it's right. Let's see how many people said it if it is.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Oh, bad luck. Bad luck, Lucy.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer as well, scores you 100 points,
0:08:13 > 0:08:14but you are in very good company here.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17And your working-out was perfect, because it is what it is and they
0:08:17 > 0:08:21are perennial qualifiers as well, but not 2014-2015, I'm afraid.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24- Good wrong guess, though. - Yeah, a good wrong guess.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Thank you. We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.
0:08:27 > 0:08:294, Chris. Got to be pleased with that.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Chris and Illy looking very strong, invincible, even,
0:08:32 > 0:08:33I'd say, at this point.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Then up to 29, Joanna and Polly,
0:08:35 > 0:08:37looking none too shabby there either,
0:08:37 > 0:08:39and then we go up to the 100,
0:08:39 > 0:08:41where we find Lucy and Alistair,
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Sue and Ralph..
0:08:43 > 0:08:45So, yes, Alistair and Ralph, it is between the pair of you
0:08:45 > 0:08:47for who's going to be staying with us
0:08:47 > 0:08:50and who will be leaving, so best of luck.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:08:55 > 0:08:59So, now, Alistair, a very warm welcome to Pointless to you.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- What do you do, Alistair? - I'm an actor.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05What acting are you doing?
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- Any work that you can get.- Yep.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11It's hard to come by, sometimes.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13- Famously.- Right now I'm kind of doing some theatre shows,
0:09:13 > 0:09:17- kind of as and when, really.- Are you attached to a theatre company?
0:09:17 > 0:09:20I am, I am. I run my own theatre company called Gruff.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- You write all your own shows? - Right now we're working with another theatre company.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26- We're developing a project together.- I see.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28That's a brilliant thing to do, starting your own company.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Gets things going, means you're all busy doing stuff,
0:09:31 > 0:09:34you've got lots of stuff to invite people to. Best of luck to you.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Now, you're on 100 points. We need, we need a low scorer,
0:09:37 > 0:09:39otherwise we have to say goodbye to you.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43Yeah, OK, I'm probably going a bit riskier than I thought
0:09:43 > 0:09:48I probably should, so I will go with FC Basel.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50- FC Basel.- Yes.
0:09:50 > 0:09:51FC Basel. Well, no red line for you,
0:09:51 > 0:09:53as obviously you're joint high-scorers,
0:09:53 > 0:09:56but let's see how far down the column you get with FC Basel.
0:09:56 > 0:09:57Good luck.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00It's right.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05Oh, it's a good answer.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Alistair, it's a great answer.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Look at that, 4, you equal our low score from Chris.
0:10:10 > 0:10:11APPLAUSE
0:10:12 > 0:10:15104 to the Gruff lad over there.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17And if you ever want an acting masterclass on how to look
0:10:17 > 0:10:20crestfallen, I would say look at Ralph's face as that...
0:10:20 > 0:10:21LAUGHTER
0:10:21 > 0:10:23..as that podium started coming down.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Yes, Swiss team, got knocked out in the last 16, Basel.
0:10:26 > 0:10:27Thank you very much, Richard.
0:10:27 > 0:10:31- Now, Polly, a warm welcome to you. - Hello.- What do you do, Polly?
0:10:31 > 0:10:34- I'm a classics student at Exeter University.- Which year are you in?
0:10:34 > 0:10:37- First year.- First year. How has it gone?- I'm loving it.
0:10:37 > 0:10:38It's been amazing. Really enjoying it.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41- Is it everything you hoped it would be and more?- Yes.- How's the course?
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Really interesting. Get to do a bit of everything,
0:10:44 > 0:10:46so I do a little bit of ancient language, a little bit of
0:10:46 > 0:10:49modern language, and some literature,
0:10:49 > 0:10:51- and a little bit of history as well.- Very good.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53What are your interests when you're not hard at work,
0:10:53 > 0:10:56- as I'm sure you are much of the time?- Yes, I know!
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Working hard or hardly working.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02Erm, I've recently started brewing my own beer,
0:11:02 > 0:11:04- which has been quite nice. - See, there we are.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06That's... There's a hobby. You see, there's a hobby.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10All this sport and stuff. Did you buy it in a kit form?
0:11:10 > 0:11:11- Yes.- Yes.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13My dad's quite into it, so he's got me into it.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15That's quite good, so you've got his expertise.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18- His expertise and also his purse.- Is it nice?
0:11:18 > 0:11:21I mean, I have drunk some home-brew that's just tasted very much
0:11:21 > 0:11:24- home-brewed.- I really enjoy it. I quite like it.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26My flatmates are less convinced, but...
0:11:26 > 0:11:30- That's fine, it means no-one else will nick it. That's great.- Exactly.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32OK, now, Polly, you are on 29.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34The high-scorers at the moment are behind you,
0:11:34 > 0:11:38Alistair and Lucy on 104. 74 or less gets you through.
0:11:38 > 0:11:39Yeah.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42I've got flatmates at home that are screaming at me
0:11:42 > 0:11:45because they know that I won't know anything about this,
0:11:45 > 0:11:48so I'm going to go with their team and say Tottenham Hotspur.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52Tottenham Hotspur, says Polly. OK, here's your red line.
0:11:52 > 0:11:56If you get below that red line with Tottenham Hotspur,
0:11:56 > 0:11:57you're through to the next round.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Let's see how many people said Tottenham Hotspur.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Ooh! Polly, I'm so sorry.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07That's an incorrect answer.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10129 is your total.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13That's thrown a lifeline to Ralph there on podium one.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16He greeted that with a poker face as well, Ralph.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19That was very impressive, I have to say.
0:12:19 > 0:12:20Yes, all your friends are Spurs fans and
0:12:20 > 0:12:23they would like the fact that you mentioned them, but then
0:12:23 > 0:12:26they'll be going, "You thought WE were in the Champions League?"
0:12:26 > 0:12:27LAUGHTER
0:12:27 > 0:12:29- Poor old Spurs. - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- Now then, Illy, welcome back. - Thank you.- Remind us what you do.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35I'm a conductor for the same company that Chris works for.
0:12:35 > 0:12:36Very exciting.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39"Tickets, please," and clicking tickets, is that it?
0:12:39 > 0:12:42- And getting you safely from your... - I beg your pardon.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44- Yeah, safety first.- Now sometimes...
0:12:44 > 0:12:46Safety first, thank you for putting me right on that.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Sometimes, the conductor on my train line
0:12:49 > 0:12:51just gets a biro and just goes...
0:12:51 > 0:12:52hands back the ticket.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55You used to get the little number, maybe a 2 or something.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58What people do is when you stamp the tickets, they rub it off.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00RICHARD GASPS
0:13:00 > 0:13:02- And then re-use the tickets.- Oh, really?
0:13:02 > 0:13:04So this is why we use pens now, marker pens and Biros.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08I see. I see. Well, I've just learned a bit of train lore, there.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12OK, now then, Illy, the moment has come. Your moment of glory.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Can we get lower than Chris?
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Probably not, but I'm going to go for Paris Saint-Germain.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Paris Saint-Germain, says Illy.
0:13:20 > 0:13:21No red line for you.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Let's see how far down the column we get with Paris Saint-Germain.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28It's right.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31Question is, can you beat the 4, though?
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Oh, 27. Not bad at all, though, Illy.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37APPLAUSE 27 takes you up to 31.
0:13:37 > 0:13:38Lowest total of the round.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Yeah, got knocked out in the quarterfinals, PSG,
0:13:41 > 0:13:43but safely through to the next round. Well played.
0:13:43 > 0:13:44Thanks very much, Richard.
0:13:44 > 0:13:48OK, now then, Ralph, a very warm welcome to Pointless.
0:13:48 > 0:13:49It's lovely to have you here.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52What keeps you busy up in York, Ralph?
0:13:52 > 0:13:58I have an allotment and I cycle, and when I retired, I did an MA.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01So I haven't been as busy as my wife.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03But right back into academia there.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06But the allotment, that sounds nice. How long have you had your allotment?
0:14:06 > 0:14:09- Eight years now.- Eight years, and what do you grow on it?
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Lettuces, leeks, potatoes...
0:14:13 > 0:14:16- Don't tend to have much luck with parsnips and carrots.- Oh, really?
0:14:16 > 0:14:19Why, bugs getting underground into the soil?
0:14:19 > 0:14:22It's ideal soil, but they just don't seem to want to grow.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24But do you find that from spring till autumn,
0:14:24 > 0:14:27- you're kept pretty much in full supply?- Yes, yes.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29- See, that's good, isn't it? - It is.- Very satisfying.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32- It's cheaper than the gym.- Yeah. LAUGHTER
0:14:32 > 0:14:37Right, Ralph, the moment of truth is on us. 28 or less.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40You are comfortable with this as a category, Ralph?
0:14:40 > 0:14:44- Reasonably, but I feel I've really got to have a go.- Yeah.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48So I'm going to say Copenhagen FC.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Copenhagen FC.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52OK, let's see if that's right,
0:14:52 > 0:14:54and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Here is your red line.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58I'd like it to be higher, but there we are.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07Bad luck, Ralph, I'm sorry. That scores you 100 points,
0:15:07 > 0:15:10takes your total up to 200.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Oh-ho, Polly and Joanna...
0:15:11 > 0:15:14secretly rather relieved there. Or perhaps not so secretly.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Anyway, I'm sorry, Ralph.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19That is a really unfortunate 200 as well, I have to say,
0:15:19 > 0:15:22they got knocked out in the qualifying rounds, FC Copenhagen.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Both very good answers on that podium, so very unlucky.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27I'll give you the answers that would have seen you through.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30So, everything that got less than 4.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33You would have got 2 points for Roma or Benfica,
0:15:33 > 0:15:351 for CSKA Moscow, 1 for Zenit St Petersburg,
0:15:35 > 0:15:381 for Bayer Leverkusen, Schalke and Olympiakos,
0:15:38 > 0:15:40and here are the pointless answers.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Very well done if you got any of these.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46Anderlecht from Belgium, APOEL from Cyprus,
0:15:46 > 0:15:49Spanish club Athletic Bilbao, BATE Borisov,
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Malmo from Sweden, Maribor from Slovenia...
0:15:52 > 0:15:54- and Sporting Lisbon. - Thanks, Richard.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57So, at the end of our first round, the pair who are heading home,
0:15:57 > 0:16:00with their high score of 200, I am so sorry, Ralph and Sue.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04We landed you right in football on your first touch with Pointless.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07We will see you again next time, when I have absolutely no doubt
0:16:07 > 0:16:10you will soar through to the head-to-head and beyond.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13But meantime, thanks very much for playing, Ralph and Sue.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16APPLAUSE
0:16:16 > 0:16:19For the remaining three pairs, it is now time for Round Two.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Ooh, and look at that, we are suddenly down to three pairs.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28At the end of this round, we will be down to two pairs,
0:16:28 > 0:16:30so one of the pairs will have to leave.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Best of luck to all three pairs,
0:16:32 > 0:16:35our category for Round Three today is famous people.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Can you all decide in your pairs,
0:16:37 > 0:16:39who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47OK, the question concerns...
0:16:50 > 0:16:53- Richard.- On each board, we are going to show you six birth names
0:16:53 > 0:16:55of people who are better known by a pseudonym.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Can you give us that pseudonym, please?
0:16:57 > 0:16:5912 in all to have a go at home, very best of luck.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03Thanks very much indeed. Let's reveal our first board of six birth names.
0:17:40 > 0:17:46Chris, it's over to you. How do you like our pseudonymous board?
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Not too great, to be fair.
0:17:48 > 0:17:52There is a couple I think I know, but I will go for the top one
0:17:52 > 0:17:55because I am sure, and I will go George Orwell.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56George Orwell, says Chris.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Let's see how many of our 100 people agree with George Orwell.
0:18:01 > 0:18:02It's right.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09APPLAUSE
0:18:09 > 0:18:1142 for George Orwell.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14Yeah, they say he took his surname from the River Orwell,
0:18:14 > 0:18:16which is near Ipswich.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20Mmm. Interesting. Now, Polly...
0:18:20 > 0:18:23- George Orwell was the only one I knew.- Ah.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26But I am pretty sure Priscilla White is Cilla Black.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31That'd be good. Let's find out. Cilla Black, is that right?
0:18:33 > 0:18:36It's absolutely right. Well, 42 was what George Orwell scored.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Cilla Black is 51.
0:18:39 > 0:18:40Not bad.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44Yeah, and that was an accidental name change,
0:18:44 > 0:18:46she was incorrectly referred to as Cilla Black
0:18:46 > 0:18:49in the Mersey Beat newspaper and the name just stuck.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51There we go. Now, Lucy...
0:18:51 > 0:18:53that board is all yours, you want to talk us through it?
0:18:53 > 0:18:56No, I don't know any of them, I don't think.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59But I'm going to guess the second one down, Andy Warhol.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Just because that sounds like a made-up name.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Andy Warhol, says Lucy. Let's see if that is right,
0:19:04 > 0:19:08and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Andy Warhol.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Sorry.- That is a very, very good guess, Lucy.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17But I'm afraid it is incorrect, it scores you 100 points.
0:19:17 > 0:19:18Another good wrong answer.
0:19:18 > 0:19:23- Andy Warhol is a made-up name, but this is Man Ray.- Ah.
0:19:23 > 0:19:24Of course, of course.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26That would have scored you 2 points.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- Spy Who Came in from the cold? - John le Carre.- John le Carre.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Would have scored you 11. The American outlaw?
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Butch Cassidy? I'll take a punt on it.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37- It is.- Yes!- 4 points for that. And the Bucks Fizz singer...
0:19:37 > 0:19:39- Is Cheryl Baker.- Yep.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41And that would have scored you 25.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45Thank you very much indeed. Well, we are halfway through the round,
0:19:45 > 0:19:47let's take a look at the scores. Chris and Illy,
0:19:47 > 0:19:49our low-scorers for the second time. 42.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52Then up to 51, where we find Polly and Joanna - not bad.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55And then up to 100, I'm sorry, Lucy, a very good guess,
0:19:55 > 0:19:56but wrong in the event.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59But, Alistair, when you get that new board,
0:19:59 > 0:20:02you have got to find a really, really, really obscure answer
0:20:02 > 0:20:04and hope that it is enough to keep you in the game.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06We are going to come back down the line now,
0:20:06 > 0:20:10can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:20:10 > 0:20:14OK, let's put six more birth names and clues on the board.
0:20:57 > 0:20:58- Alistair...- Mmm.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Yes, it is not as nice a board as I have would have liked to have
0:21:01 > 0:21:04- turned round for you, Alistair. I'm sorry.- No.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06- I'm just going to have a guess.- Mm-hmm.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10And I will say the knighted singer-songwriter is going to be,
0:21:10 > 0:21:12I don't know, Stevie Wonder.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Sir Stevie Wonder, right you are, OK.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18No red line for you, as you are the high-scorers,
0:21:18 > 0:21:22but let's see how many of our 100 said Stevie Wonder.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29I'm sorry, I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer, Alistair,
0:21:29 > 0:21:32scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 200.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Yeah, I'm going to say that is a less good 200
0:21:34 > 0:21:36than we saw in the first round.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Yeah, he was Stevland Judkins, Stevie Wonder.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42- Stevland?- Stevland.- That's great.
0:21:42 > 0:21:46Now, Joanna, listen, there is a big safety net beneath you now.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49In that you are already through to the head-to-head, even if
0:21:49 > 0:21:51you score 100 - but you won't!
0:21:51 > 0:21:54I think I know three. One I think I know very well,
0:21:54 > 0:21:57so I am going to have a bit of a risky guess maybe,
0:21:57 > 0:21:58but I think it's right,
0:21:58 > 0:22:01I think Cracker and Harry Potter actor is Robbie Coltrane.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Robbie Coltrane.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07No red line, you are already through. How many people said Robbie Coltrane?
0:22:15 > 0:22:1925, bad not at all. 76 is your total.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Well played, Joanna, took the name Coltrane
0:22:22 > 0:22:24because of his love of jazz.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27There we go. Thanks, Richard. Now, Illy...
0:22:27 > 0:22:30again, you are through to the head-to-head,
0:22:30 > 0:22:32which is spectacular news. Do you fancy talking us through
0:22:32 > 0:22:35that board and seeing how many of them you care to name?
0:22:35 > 0:22:36The top one is Pele.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39The second one is Max Factor,
0:22:39 > 0:22:41and the third one I'm going to go for is Sir Elton John.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43Sir Elton John, OK.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47No red line, you are already through, how many people said Elton John?
0:22:49 > 0:22:50It's right.
0:22:53 > 0:22:5647, not bad. 89 is your total,
0:22:56 > 0:22:58through you go.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00Well played, Illy.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03It's actually the biggest score of the ones you knew, that one.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06You're right about Pele, Edson Arantes do Nascimento,
0:23:06 > 0:23:09would have scored you 27.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11That Max Factor might be one of my favourite things
0:23:11 > 0:23:12I've ever seen on Pointless.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15That Max Factor's real name was Maksymilian Faktorowicz.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19- Which is what you would make up. - Exactly.- Isn't that brilliant?
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Would have scored 10 points.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23The 1985 world chess champion is...
0:23:23 > 0:23:25- BOTH:- ..Garry Kasparov. - 17 points for that.
0:23:25 > 0:23:29The best answer on the board is the welterweight bare-knuckle boxer,
0:23:29 > 0:23:31but often fought heavyweights as well,
0:23:31 > 0:23:33and he was Kid McCoy.
0:23:33 > 0:23:352 points for that, very well done if you said that.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Thank you very much.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39OK, so at the end of our second round, Alistair and Lucy,
0:23:39 > 0:23:41I am afraid you are the pair we send home,
0:23:41 > 0:23:44our latest members of the 200 Club.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47The wheels just came off, Alistair, I thought for a minute
0:23:47 > 0:23:49you might have said, you MIGHT have said Elton John.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Max Factor, was that not shouting out at you?
0:23:51 > 0:23:54Well, lots of them did, and then my brain stopped.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56I know what it's like.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58We are going to see you next time, we look forward to that
0:23:58 > 0:24:01very much indeed, I'm sure you will be much better.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03But meantime, thank you very much, Alistair and Lucy.
0:24:05 > 0:24:06But for Joanna and Polly, Chris and Illy,
0:24:06 > 0:24:08it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Well, hats off to you, Chris and Illy, Joanna and Polly,
0:24:15 > 0:24:17you are now one step closer to the final
0:24:17 > 0:24:21and a chance to play for our jackpot, which, let's not forget, stands at...
0:24:21 > 0:24:23- AUDIENCE:- Oooh! - Mm-hmm.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28Well, you know the story here, you are allowed to start playing
0:24:28 > 0:24:30as teams, and the first pair to win two questions
0:24:30 > 0:24:32plays for that jackpot.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35Best of luck to both pairs, let's play the head-to-head.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:24:47 > 0:24:49- Richard.- We are going to show you five pictures
0:24:49 > 0:24:51now of Brad Pitt in different roles from different films.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54We need you to name the film, please. Very best of luck.
0:24:54 > 0:24:55OK, thanks, Richard.
0:24:55 > 0:24:59Let's reveal our five Brad Pitt films, and here they are. We have...
0:25:21 > 0:25:24There you go, five Brad Pitt films.
0:25:24 > 0:25:29Chris and Illy, you have been our low-scorers, so you get to go first.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Well, I think I know one of them,
0:25:31 > 0:25:35- but I am not sure.- Mm-hmm.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37We know another one that we are pretty sure on.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41I'm going to say D and Fight Club.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43D, Fight Club.
0:25:43 > 0:25:48OK, now, Joanna and Polly...
0:25:48 > 0:25:50talk us through that board.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Well, we literally have no idea.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Shall we go with B?
0:25:55 > 0:25:58I think, I don't know, B might be The Beach, but I don't know.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01C we think might be a Twilight film.
0:26:01 > 0:26:02SHE LAUGHS
0:26:02 > 0:26:05And E, I think, I vaguely know, but I can't think what it is.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08So I think we will just have to go B.
0:26:08 > 0:26:09The Beach.
0:26:09 > 0:26:14B, The Beach. OK. So, we have Fight Club for D
0:26:14 > 0:26:16from Chris and Illy.
0:26:16 > 0:26:17Let's see if D is Fight Club,
0:26:17 > 0:26:20let's see how many people said that if it is.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25- No.- God.- C.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27Joanna and Polly only have to be right
0:26:27 > 0:26:30when they say that B is The Beach. Are they?
0:26:34 > 0:26:37No. Which means...
0:26:37 > 0:26:38LAUGHING: ..after...
0:26:38 > 0:26:41Oh, Brad, I hope you're not watching.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44- Which means, after one question, it is 0-0. Exciting.- That went well.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47Might be the first show ever where we have had 200 Club in Round One,
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Round Two and the head-to-head.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51Let's go through all of these.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53A is Thelma and Louise.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56B is a pointless answer.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57It is True Romance.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00- Excellent film. - Well done if you said that.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02C is Interview With the Vampire.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Now, D is not Fight Club.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09- It's Snatch.- Snatch is the answer.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12Terrible Irish accent, do you remember?
0:27:12 > 0:27:15And you don't recognise E at all, gents?
0:27:15 > 0:27:17- Erm, Thelma and Louise. - No, it's Fight Club.
0:27:17 > 0:27:18LAUGHTER
0:27:22 > 0:27:25There we go. Good. Here is your second question.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28Someone is going to have to win it to get through to the final,
0:27:28 > 0:27:32so best of luck to both pairs. It concerns...
0:27:32 > 0:27:35..years ending "ooh". No, years ending 00.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38Yeah, we are going to give you a series of clues now to years
0:27:38 > 0:27:41ending with 00. We just need you to tell us the year, please.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43OK, let's review our five clues.
0:28:20 > 0:28:23OK, there we are. Joanna and Polly will go first this time.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29(1600? It's going to be really embarrassing if...
0:28:29 > 0:28:33- (Shall we go for the composers? - Don't you know Pope Leo III?- No.)
0:28:34 > 0:28:39We are not 100%, but we think the top one might be 1600.
0:28:41 > 0:28:451600, says Joanna and Polly. OK. Chris and Illy...
0:28:46 > 0:28:48Yeah, this could be fun.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50THEY LAUGH
0:28:50 > 0:28:55- This could be endless.- This could be endless. We're not sure.
0:28:55 > 0:28:571800 for the composers.
0:28:58 > 0:29:03You're going to go 1800 for Vivaldi, Handel and Bach.
0:29:03 > 0:29:07Right, so we have 1600 and we have 1800. In the order they were given.
0:29:07 > 0:29:11Joanna and Polly said 1600, let's see if it's right.
0:29:15 > 0:29:16No.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21Chris and Illy have gone 1800, let's see if it's right.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27No, no.
0:29:27 > 0:29:32This is good, very exciting. After two questions it is 0-0.
0:29:33 > 0:29:34- Goodness me.- Wow.
0:29:34 > 0:29:39Yeah, it wasn't 1600, it wasn't 1800, it was 1700.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41Would have scored 18 points.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44The United Nations has only been in existence for one year
0:29:44 > 0:29:46that has 00 in it - 2000.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51And the next answer down is 800, very well done
0:29:51 > 0:29:54if you got that, best answer on the board.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56The USA one, of course, is 1800.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00And Richard II, do you know that? 1200?
0:30:00 > 0:30:03It's 1400.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06OK, right, here comes your third question.
0:30:07 > 0:30:11Best of luck to both pairs. Our third question today concerns...
0:30:16 > 0:30:17AUDIENCE MEMBER LAUGHS
0:30:17 > 0:30:19Surely we can get one of these right. Richard.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22We're going to show you know five ingredients from that recipe.
0:30:22 > 0:30:24We have missed out some of the words,
0:30:24 > 0:30:26you need to fill in the words we have missed out, please.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28When I say "please", I mean PLEASE.
0:30:28 > 0:30:29LAUGHTER
0:30:29 > 0:30:32Let's reveal our ingredients. Here we go.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59I seem to think it was Chris and Illy going first this time.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04- We don't know any of these. No - that is a joke.- Good.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06RICHARD LAUGHS
0:31:08 > 0:31:11I'm just going to go for 90g of butter.
0:31:12 > 0:31:1490g of butter, say Chris and Illy.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17Now then, Joanna and Polly, the rest of the board is all yours,
0:31:17 > 0:31:18talk us through it.
0:31:18 > 0:31:211-1.5 kilos of potatoes
0:31:21 > 0:31:24and then 150ml of dry white wine.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27And then one tablespoon of grated Parmesan.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29- We'll go for Parmesan. - You're going to go for Parmesan.
0:31:29 > 0:31:32OK, so we have butter and we have Parmesan.
0:31:32 > 0:31:36Chris and Illy said butter, let's see how many of our 100 said butter.
0:31:38 > 0:31:42It's right. I'd forgotten what that column sounded like! There we go.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44Butter gets you 31.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50Joanna and Polly, meanwhile, have gone for grated Parmesan.
0:31:50 > 0:31:54Let's see if that is right, let's see how many people said Parmesan.
0:31:55 > 0:31:58It's right.
0:31:58 > 0:31:59It's got to...
0:31:59 > 0:32:00Ooh, no, 60.
0:32:02 > 0:32:06There we are. An early lead for Chris and Illy.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08After three questions it is 1-0 to you.
0:32:08 > 0:32:11Yeah, you would have won the point with dry white wine actually,
0:32:11 > 0:32:15because it would have only scored you 23 points.
0:32:15 > 0:32:18Biggest score of all, the one at the top there, potatoes.
0:32:20 > 0:32:23And the best answer, with 8 points, you know that one?
0:32:23 > 0:32:27- No.- Difficult, isn't it? It's tomato concentrate.- Ah, very good.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30- Didn't know there was such a thing. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32OK, here comes your fourth question.
0:32:32 > 0:32:33CONTESTANTS LAUGH
0:32:33 > 0:32:36Joanne and Polly, you get to answer it first, but you have to win it.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38It concerns...
0:32:41 > 0:32:44Going to give you a series of clues now about all sorts of things
0:32:44 > 0:32:46related to art, all of the answers begin with the letter A.
0:32:46 > 0:32:50- Can you give us the most obscure? - OK, let's reveal our five clues.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02..the first name of the famous pop artist Warhol -
0:33:02 > 0:33:04making a second appearance on the show...
0:33:33 > 0:33:35Joanna and Polly, we come to you first.
0:33:35 > 0:33:38THEY WHISPER
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Eh, we are going to go for the fruit
0:33:42 > 0:33:45which obscures the bowler hat - apple.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47Apple, say Joanna and Polly. Now, Chris and Illy,
0:33:47 > 0:33:50talk us through that board.
0:33:50 > 0:33:53- Top one... - Yeah, we're not sure on the top one
0:33:53 > 0:33:55and we don't know the bottom one.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57The other two, we know one of them,
0:33:57 > 0:33:59we're going to take a guess at the other one.
0:33:59 > 0:34:03The birth country of the artist Gustav Klimt is Austria.
0:34:03 > 0:34:04Austria, say Chris and Illy.
0:34:04 > 0:34:07So we have apple and we have Austria.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09Joanna and Polly said apple, let's see if it's right
0:34:09 > 0:34:11and if it is, how many people said it.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15It's right.
0:34:17 > 0:34:1952 for apple.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24Now, Chris and Illy have gone for Austria,
0:34:24 > 0:34:27the birthplace of Gustav Klimt, let's see if that's right.
0:34:29 > 0:34:30It's right.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34And it wins it for you, very well done indeed, 43.
0:34:36 > 0:34:37Very well done.
0:34:37 > 0:34:39We got there in the end, Chris and Illy,
0:34:39 > 0:34:43after four questions, you are through to the final. 2-0.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46Yeah, let's take a look at these. Do you know the photographer?
0:34:46 > 0:34:48It's Ansel Adams.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53You did well to avoid Andy Warhol.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59And one of the most famous paintings of the 20th century, I would say.
0:34:59 > 0:35:03- It's called American Gothic. - That is exactly what it is called.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05Ansel Adams, the best answer on that board.
0:35:05 > 0:35:06Thank you very much.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:35:09 > 0:35:10Joanna and Polly.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12Well, you have gone into Pointless history,
0:35:12 > 0:35:15always a good thing to do, I think, for whatever reason.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18That is the longest head-to-head round ever played.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21And the fewest points ever scored in two questions. So, that was fun.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24But the good news is, we get to see you again next time,
0:35:24 > 0:35:27when, who knows, maybe you will make it to the golden couple
0:35:27 > 0:35:29and make it through to the final.
0:35:29 > 0:35:33But meantime, thanks very much indeed, Joanna and Polly.
0:35:33 > 0:35:34Well done.
0:35:34 > 0:35:38Right, for Chris and Illy, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Well, very well done indeed, Chris and Illy,
0:35:42 > 0:35:45you have seen off all the competition - eventually -
0:35:45 > 0:35:47and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:54 > 0:35:56You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,
0:35:56 > 0:36:01and just because we might have forgotten, it is standing at...
0:36:01 > 0:36:03- AUDIENCE:- Ooh!
0:36:03 > 0:36:07Now, that is a decent jackpot. I slightly feel you have earned it.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09We've all earned it, to be honest, but, yes,
0:36:09 > 0:36:12that was an attritional head-to-head.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15What would you like to see come up in this last round?
0:36:15 > 0:36:17- What do you think? - Something that we know.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19LAUGHTER
0:36:19 > 0:36:20- There we go.- Can't see anything else.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23Anything about the rail network in the North of England would be good.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26Do you know what, it has been known to come up.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29- Wouldn't that be brilliant?- Yes. - Slightly jammy. But yeah, brilliant.
0:36:29 > 0:36:33OK, let's see what today's choices look like. We have got...
0:36:40 > 0:36:43Genealogy of the royal family - no.
0:36:43 > 0:36:47- Cats...no.- '67.- Yeah.
0:36:47 > 0:36:51- The year 1967, please. - 1967 it is. Richard.
0:36:51 > 0:36:52OK, very, very best of luck, gents.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55Three very different questions here, I hope one of them suits you.
0:36:55 > 0:36:59We are looking for the name of any Formula 1 driver who scored
0:36:59 > 0:37:02a point in any race in the 1967 F1 season,
0:37:02 > 0:37:04so anyone who finished in the top six
0:37:04 > 0:37:07and scored a point in that season.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09We are looking for any cast member from the Bond movie
0:37:09 > 0:37:11You Only Live Twice according to IMDB.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14We are looking for any of the tracks on the original release
0:37:14 > 0:37:17of The Beatles' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band,
0:37:17 > 0:37:19apart from the title track, of course.
0:37:19 > 0:37:21So, Formula 1 points-scoring drivers,
0:37:21 > 0:37:23the cast of You Only Live Twice,
0:37:23 > 0:37:26and songs on Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28OK. Well, very best of luck.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31As always, you've got up to a minute to come up with three answers
0:37:31 > 0:37:34to win that £2,000 jackpot, just one of your answers has to be pointless.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36- Are you ready? BOTH:- Yes.
0:37:36 > 0:37:40Good. Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. Your time starts now.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42Which ones?
0:37:42 > 0:37:45Formula 1 drivers I could probably list two or three,
0:37:45 > 0:37:47Graham Hill, Jackie Stewart...
0:37:47 > 0:37:50I can't think of anybody else from around about that era.
0:37:50 > 0:37:53Yeah, probably got Graham Hill or Jackie Stewart.
0:37:53 > 0:37:57You Only Live Twice, obviously you've got Sean Connery,
0:37:57 > 0:38:00I'm not sure... Who played Q?
0:38:00 > 0:38:02Richard...
0:38:02 > 0:38:06Songs on Sgt Pepper's - Get By With a Little Help From My Friends.
0:38:06 > 0:38:10- That's definitely on there. - I honestly don't know.
0:38:10 > 0:38:13I think Day In The Life is on there.
0:38:13 > 0:38:18- Go with that.- Yeah, but, it's whether...
0:38:18 > 0:38:21So what we going? Jackie Stewart, Graham Hill...
0:38:22 > 0:38:26- Just trying to think of any others. - 1967...
0:38:26 > 0:38:30- Brabham, was he too early? - Jackie Brabham.- Ten seconds left.
0:38:30 > 0:38:33Right, I'll go Brabham, we'll go Graham Hill
0:38:33 > 0:38:35and we'll go Day In The Life.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37Yeah, do that, yeah.
0:38:37 > 0:38:38Right, OK.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41OK, you have got your three answers and your minute is up now.
0:38:41 > 0:38:45- Let's hear what you are going to go for.- OK, we have got three.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48- Formula 1 drivers, we are going to go Jack Brabham.- Jack Brabham.
0:38:48 > 0:38:51- And we'll go Graham Hill. - Graham Hill.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53And songs on Sgt Pepper's, we will go A Day In The Life.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55A Day In The Life, OK. Now, of those three,
0:38:55 > 0:38:57which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:57 > 0:38:59- Day In The Life, I would have thought.- Do you think?
0:38:59 > 0:39:02- Day In The Life. - OK, Day In The Life goes last.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04Least likely to be pointless?
0:39:04 > 0:39:07Probably Jack Brabham. We're not sure.
0:39:07 > 0:39:11OK, let's pop those answers on the board in that order.
0:39:16 > 0:39:17Well, very best of luck.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20Three answers there, one of those,
0:39:20 > 0:39:23at least one of those, could turn out to be pointless.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26What would you do with your share of the spoils, Chris, if you won?
0:39:26 > 0:39:31I think I would get some general knowledge lessons, first of all.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34And then probably a holiday, to be fair. Put it towards a nice holiday.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36I am a bit of a Game of Thrones fan,
0:39:36 > 0:39:39so I would like to go to Dubrovnik and have a look around there.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41Very good. You could go up to Iceland.
0:39:41 > 0:39:42- Yeah.- Very nice. Illy, how about you?
0:39:42 > 0:39:45Same, I think I'm going to put mine towards a holiday.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47The missus has always wanted to go to the Caribbean,
0:39:47 > 0:39:49so I think I will put it towards that.
0:39:49 > 0:39:50Very good, well, best of luck.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53Three good answers there, let's hope one of those scores that jackpot.
0:39:53 > 0:39:58In the first case, we were looking for 1967 Formula 1 drivers.
0:39:58 > 0:40:02You have gone for Jack Brabham, probably a bit of a shot in the dark.
0:40:02 > 0:40:04Let's find out. It has to be right, obviously,
0:40:04 > 0:40:07but if it is pointless, it will win you £2,000.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09How many people said Jack Brabham?
0:40:11 > 0:40:12It's right.
0:40:12 > 0:40:16Well, that is exciting at this late stage, Jack Brabham taking
0:40:16 > 0:40:19us down through the thirties, if it goes to zero, you leave with £2,000.
0:40:19 > 0:40:22Down we go into single figures, still going, still going,
0:40:22 > 0:40:23still going - oh, 2!
0:40:23 > 0:40:25- AUDIENCE:- Aww!
0:40:25 > 0:40:29That is a phenomenal answer. Jack Brabham, very well done indeed.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31Only two people got that.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33It's annoying to get that close, isn't it?
0:40:33 > 0:40:37Sadly, it is only pointless answers we deal in in this last round.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40Which means you only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42Your next answer was Graham Hill,
0:40:42 > 0:40:44again we are looking for Formula 1 drivers from 1967.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47As you know, it has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50So let's see, for £2,000, how many people said Graham Hill?
0:40:53 > 0:40:55It's right.
0:40:55 > 0:40:57Well, Jack Brabham took us to 2,
0:40:57 > 0:40:59how far down the column can Graham Hill take us?
0:40:59 > 0:41:03He's going down through the twenties, into the teens, into single...
0:41:03 > 0:41:06Not quite into single figures - 10.
0:41:10 > 0:41:11Not bad. Not bad at all.
0:41:11 > 0:41:13Only one more chance to win today's jackpot,
0:41:13 > 0:41:16the day when you thought was probably your best shot at a pointless answer.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18A Day In The Life.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21In this case, we were looking for tracks from
0:41:21 > 0:41:23Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band,
0:41:23 > 0:41:25to win that jackpot, it has to be pointless.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28For £2,000, how many people said A Day In The Life?
0:41:30 > 0:41:35It's right. Jack Brabham took us down to 2.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37Graham Hill took us down to 10.
0:41:37 > 0:41:40A Day In The Life now taking us down through the teens.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Into single figures, down it goes - oh, 6.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44- AUDIENCE:- Aww.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46Great show, great show.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49Listen, three very good answers there.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51You'd be very happy to take any of those scores in normal gameplay.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54But I am afraid, in this last round, they have to be pointless.
0:41:54 > 0:41:57So I am afraid you don't win our jackpot of £2,000,
0:41:57 > 0:42:01that rolls over onto the next show. But what a strong performance.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03And the stamina to get through that head-to-head...
0:42:03 > 0:42:05apart from anything else, was impressive.
0:42:05 > 0:42:08You get take home a Pointless trophy so it hasn't all been in vain.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10Very well done, Chris and Illy.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12APPLAUSE
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Very well played, gents. Thank you so much for entertaining us as well.
0:42:17 > 0:42:19Let's take a look at what you should have said,
0:42:19 > 0:42:20all those pointless answers.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Formula 1 drivers...
0:42:23 > 0:42:25Everyone apart from Jackie Stewart,
0:42:25 > 0:42:27Graham Hill, Jim Clark, John Surtees,
0:42:27 > 0:42:29Denny Hulme, Jack Brabham and Jochen Rindt,
0:42:29 > 0:42:32everyone else was a pointless answer, well done if you said any.
0:42:32 > 0:42:35The Bond cast. Actually, some of the regulars are pointless,
0:42:35 > 0:42:36so if you know your bond regulars,
0:42:36 > 0:42:37Bernard Lee, who played M,
0:42:37 > 0:42:40and Lois Maxwell, Miss Moneypenny, both pointless.
0:42:40 > 0:42:41Burt Kwouk, who keeps cropping up
0:42:41 > 0:42:43on Pointless, doesn't he? Becoming a meme.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46And Charles Gray was another regular, very well done
0:42:46 > 0:42:47if you said any of those.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Sgt Pepper's, only two pointless answers,
0:42:50 > 0:42:53but people who know the album would have got them, I know that.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55Very well done if you got any of those at home.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57Thanks very much, Richard. Unfortunately,
0:42:57 > 0:42:59we have to say goodbye, Chris and Illy,
0:42:59 > 0:43:01but it's been fabulous having you on.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03- Thank you so much for playing. BOTH:- Thank you.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06Great contestants, Chris and Illy.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08Well, sadly, Chris and Illy didn't win our jackpot today,
0:43:08 > 0:43:12which means it rolls onto the next show, when we will be playing for...
0:43:15 > 0:43:17Join us next time to see if someone can win it.
0:43:17 > 0:43:20- Meanwhile, it is goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:20 > 0:43:22And it is goodbye from me - goodbye.
