0:00:14 > 0:00:19APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Hello. I'm Alexander Armstrong and a very warm welcome to Pointless,
0:00:26 > 0:00:28the show where obvious answers mean nothing
0:00:28 > 0:00:31and obscure answers mean everything. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35APPLAUSE
0:00:35 > 0:00:37And couple number one.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Hi. I'm James. This is my sister, Jessica.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41And we're from Taunton in Somerset.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43- Couple number two. - Hi, Xander. I'm Andy.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45This is my wife, Lynn, and we come from Belfast.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48- Couple number three. - Hi. I'm Joe. This is Zechariah.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50We're from Barnet and we've been friends for years.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52And finally, couple number four.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56Hi. I'm Viv from Lincoln and this is my very good friend Rosie
0:00:56 > 0:00:58from Washington near Newcastle.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00And these are today's contestants.
0:01:00 > 0:01:05APPLAUSE Thanks very much, all of you.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07We'll find out more about you throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12They told him no-one would be interested
0:01:12 > 0:01:14in a musical version of his life performed in the West End.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16They told him it would never work.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18And do you know what? They were right.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21- It's my Pointless friend. It's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23- APPLAUSE - Hi, everybody.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27- Good afternoon.- And to you.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30We welcome back just one pair today, which is Jessica and James,
0:01:30 > 0:01:32who did well last time. Got knocked out in Round Two.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Slightly unfortunate. I think they might do well this time.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38- We had Chris and Tom, didn't we? - Yes.- Who won.- Yes.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41- Got through to the jackpot round. - Yes.- Scored 4 points...- Yeah.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44- ..2 points...- Yeah.- ..1 point.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- Ooh.- That is unlucky. They were very, very good, weren't they?
0:01:47 > 0:01:49- Good answers, yeah. - African Capitals, it was.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51They did ever so well,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54but not quite well enough, which is good news for everybody today.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56It is. It is. Now, thanks very much.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58So, Tom and Chris, as you've gathered,
0:01:58 > 0:02:01didn't win the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that,
0:02:01 > 0:02:04so today's jackpot starts off at £2,000.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06There we are. APPLAUSE
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:09 > 0:02:14APPLAUSE
0:02:14 > 0:02:17So, all you have to remember is that the pair with the highest score
0:02:17 > 0:02:19at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23That is it. That is all. Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25Our first category this afternoon is...
0:02:28 > 0:02:30British Politics. Can you all decide in your pairs
0:02:30 > 0:02:32who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:02:32 > 0:02:35And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40OK, and the question concerns...
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Politicians Under Queen Elizabeth II, Richard.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49In a moment, Xander will show you the names of five political roles.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53We're looking for the name of anyone who's held any of those roles
0:02:53 > 0:02:55under the reign of Queen Elizabeth, please,
0:02:55 > 0:02:56so since she was crowned in 1953.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00So, anyone who's permanently held any of the following political jobs.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- And that is up to April 2015.- OK.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06So, as Richard said, we're going to put five roles up on the board.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09They'll stay up for the whole round. We won't change them halfway through.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12They'll stay up for the whole round. Let's see what they are.
0:03:14 > 0:03:15We've got...
0:03:21 > 0:03:23I'll read those one last time.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33There we are. Now, Jessica, welcome back.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Remind us what you do, Jessica. - I work in health insurance,
0:03:36 > 0:03:40- so I take the claims and everything for everybody.- That's right.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Now, down in Taunton, what keeps you happy down there?
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Um, I like the countryside. I'm not really a city girl.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49- I wouldn't say so. - So, you live out...?
0:03:49 > 0:03:51You don't live in Taunton itself? Are you outside?
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- Oh, no, I do live in the town... - Yeah.- ..but I don't like busy cities.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- I quite like the town, country life.- Right.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59I love Taunton. Beautiful place.
0:03:59 > 0:04:03Now, Jessica, what are you going to say to kick us off?
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Um, I did economics at college
0:04:06 > 0:04:08and it's not helping me at the moment.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Um, I'm just going to go for one I know,
0:04:11 > 0:04:16and that's George Osborne is the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
0:04:16 > 0:04:17OK. You're going to say George Osborne.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Let's see how many of our 100 people said George Osborne.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Wow. APPLAUSE
0:04:31 > 0:04:3327 of our
0:04:33 > 0:04:35100 people named George Osborne.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37- Yeah, it's one of those rounds, isn't it?- Isn't it?
0:04:37 > 0:04:40I think, you know, when you ask people two things at once,
0:04:40 > 0:04:43- genuinely, they just go, "I can't begin to compute."- Yeah.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Whereas, if you said to everybody,
0:04:45 > 0:04:47"Who is the Chancellor of the Exchequer currently?"
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- and, "Who is the Queen currently?" you'd get more than 27.- Surely.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52But if you ask them both at the same,
0:04:52 > 0:04:56- people get confused. - Mm. There we are.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Lynn, a very warm welcome to Pointless. Lovely to have you here.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02What do you like getting up to in Belfast? What are your hobbies?
0:05:02 > 0:05:04I do a lot of genealogy.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07I've traced our family tree back to the 1800s,
0:05:07 > 0:05:10- which is quite hard in Ireland... - That's fun.- ..because of partition.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12- You have to go to a lot of churches and...- Yeah.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15- So, lots of churchyards, parish records.- Yes.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18And where, geographically, have you got to?
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Um, we came from Scotland.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22The family name was originally Ross,
0:05:22 > 0:05:25so the plantation and things like that, so...
0:05:25 > 0:05:27You came over with the plantation. Right, I see.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Now, Lynn, what would you like to go for on this board?
0:05:30 > 0:05:34Um...not a great subject for me, British politics,
0:05:34 > 0:05:38but I think Norman Lamont was Chancellor of the Exchequer.
0:05:38 > 0:05:39Norman Lamont, says Lynn.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Let's see how many of our 100 people said Norman Lamont.
0:05:44 > 0:05:45It's right.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Wow. 8. APPLAUSE
0:05:54 > 0:05:568 for
0:05:56 > 0:05:57Norman Lamont.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01Well played, Lynn. Chancellor from 1990 to 1993.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Indeed. Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07Now, Joe, a very warm welcome to Pointless to you. What do you do?
0:06:07 > 0:06:10I'm a management consultant for a big financial services company.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- How long have you been doing that? - A couple of years.- Enjoying it?
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Yeah, it's good. Yeah, it's really good.- Very good.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19And what are your interests aside from management consulting?
0:06:19 > 0:06:21I do a lot of sport. I did a triathlon last summer.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25- I play a lot of football, golf. I like to travel as well.- OK.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Now, Joe, what are you going to go for?
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Got some good answers in my head,
0:06:29 > 0:06:33but I'm going to play it safe and go for Alistair Darling.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Alistair Darling, says Joe. Let's see how safe that is.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Let's see how many of our 100 people
0:06:38 > 0:06:40remember Alistair Darling as Chancellor.
0:06:43 > 0:06:44It's right.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Look at that. 6.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53APPLAUSE
0:06:53 > 0:06:546 for Alistair Darling.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00- Yeah, 2007 to 2010.- Yeah. - That's show business, isn't it?
0:07:00 > 0:07:01That's showbiz, isn't it?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Thanks very much indeed, Richard. So...
0:07:03 > 0:07:06- Now, Viv, a warm welcome to you to Pointless.- Thank you.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- What do you do, Viv? - I'm very happily retired.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13- Very happily.- Very.- Note the very. Why, what were you doing before?
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Um, I worked for a national wildlife charity
0:07:16 > 0:07:18and I was head of the grants unit,
0:07:18 > 0:07:20so I was giving out millions of pounds.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23- You were giving out millions of pounds?- Yes. I loved it.
0:07:23 > 0:07:24You must have loved that,
0:07:24 > 0:07:26but retirement has been even lovelier?
0:07:26 > 0:07:30Oh, yes. I can do lots of things now that I didn't have any time to do.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Wonderful. What are the things you now spend most of your time doing?
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Well, because of the wildlife connection,
0:07:35 > 0:07:37I do bird watching,
0:07:37 > 0:07:41but I love reading, particularly Scandinavian novels.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44And my physical thing, apart from walking,
0:07:44 > 0:07:47is I play short mat bowls.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49- Brilliant. Now, Viv...- Yes.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51..what would you like to go for or who would you like to go for?
0:07:51 > 0:07:56Well, I did meet this man, and it's Michael Howard.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58- Michael Howard, says Viv.- Yes.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02Let's see how many of our 100 people said Michael Howard.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06It's right.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Look at that. 1, Viv!
0:08:13 > 0:08:15APPLAUSE
0:08:15 > 0:08:181 for Michael Howard. Very, very well done indeed.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Yeah, he was a Leader of the Opposition, of course.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Leader of the Tory Party just ten years or so ago
0:08:25 > 0:08:27and yet just scores 1 point.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29You literally physically have to have met him
0:08:29 > 0:08:32- at that time to remember who he was. - LAUGHTER
0:08:32 > 0:08:35Thanks, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Let's take a look at those scores. 1, the best score of that pass.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41Very well done indeed, Viv.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Then up to 6, where we find Joe and Zechariah.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46And then up to 8, where we find Lynn and Andy.
0:08:46 > 0:08:47And then 27.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50Jessica, you were our low-scorer in the first round last time.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53This time, you're the high-scorer. So, James, we're depending on you.
0:08:53 > 0:08:54We'll come back down the line.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:09:00 > 0:09:01Now then, Rosie.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05- A very warm welcome to you, Rosie. - Thank you.- And what do you do?
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- I'm also retired. - SHE LAUGHS
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- What did you do?- I used to be a management trainer.
0:09:10 > 0:09:15I used to teach managers how to manage people in the right way.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17You taught managing to managers.
0:09:17 > 0:09:18Very good. How long did you do that for?
0:09:18 > 0:09:21- Was that a fun job? - Oh, goodness. 17 years.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23And what are you doing with your retirement?
0:09:23 > 0:09:27Like Viv, I like to bird watch. I'm her apprentice.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31- What's the most exciting bird you've seen?- Probably golden eagle.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33- HE GASPS Where did you see that?- Spain.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37Oh, beautiful. Beautiful. Now, Rosie, you're on 1.
0:09:37 > 0:09:38The high-scorers are James
0:09:38 > 0:09:40and Jessica on 27. So, 25 or less
0:09:40 > 0:09:43gets you through very comfortably.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46I'm going to go for Margaret Beckett.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48I believe she was Deputy Prime Minister
0:09:48 > 0:09:50and Leader of the Opposition at one time.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Margaret Beckett, says Rosie. Here's your red line.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55If you can get below that, you're through to the next round.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57How many people said Margaret Beckett?
0:09:59 > 0:10:00It's right.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05Well done. You're through.
0:10:06 > 0:10:091. APPLAUSE
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Equalling Viv's low score.
0:10:11 > 0:10:132 is your total, the lowest total of the round.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17She was actually just acting Leader of the Opposition,
0:10:17 > 0:10:20but she was, which qualifies her here, Foreign Secretary.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24- So, a good answer. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27Zechariah, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- And what do you do?- I'm a student.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33- What are you studying? - Economics and maths.
0:10:33 > 0:10:38- Ironically...- Yeah.- ..I'm not so great with British politics.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40OK. Well, that's fine.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Aside from economics and maths, what interests you?
0:10:44 > 0:10:48What interests me? I'm quite into my music.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50I play guitar and I do a lot of work
0:10:50 > 0:10:52with youth movements and that kind of thing.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Very good indeed. OK, Zechariah, what are you going to go for?
0:10:55 > 0:10:57You're on 6. If you can score...
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Nice target - 20 or less. I think... Come on.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03I'm sure you've got a good 20-or-less kind of answer.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07I'm going to go with Ed Miliband as Leader of the Opposition.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10Ed Miliband. OK, Ed Miliband, says Zechariah.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Here is your red line. If you get below that with Ed Miliband,
0:11:13 > 0:11:14you are through to the next round.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Let's see if it's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Absolutely right, of course.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Ooh, look at that. 22. Not bad.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30APPLAUSE
0:11:30 > 0:11:3128 is your total.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34I think that might be enough to see you through.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36- Chance, though, for James now. - Mm-hm.- Chance for James.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39Yeah, Ed Miliband, 22.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41- Um, Andy, welcome.- Hi, Xander.
0:11:41 > 0:11:42Welcome to Pointless.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Great to have you here from Belfast. What do you do?
0:11:44 > 0:11:46- ENGLISH ACCENT: - I work in the civil service.
0:11:46 > 0:11:51You...you...? Oh, listen to that lovely Irish brogue there, for a man.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53- It's beautiful, isn't it? Unmistakable.- I've tempered it down.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56You have. I didn't understand what you said there.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59The accent was so thick, Andy. You've tempered it down.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02- So, where are you from originally? - I'm from Brixton in South London.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Right you are. I see. LAUGHTER
0:12:04 > 0:12:07- And what took you over to Belfast?- She did.
0:12:07 > 0:12:08Aw, very nice.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11And what are your interests in Belfast?
0:12:11 > 0:12:12Principally, I've just got into running.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Spending time with my family and watching movies
0:12:15 > 0:12:17- cos I love movies.- Very good indeed.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Now, Lynn has set you up very nicely there with a score of 8.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23The high-scorers at the moment are Zechariah and Joe.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27If you can score 19 or less, you're through to the next round.
0:12:27 > 0:12:28I'm hoping I'm right with this
0:12:28 > 0:12:32cos his wife actually taught me drama at school,
0:12:32 > 0:12:34and so I'm going to go for Neil Kinnock.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37- Neil Kinnock. Glenys taught you drama?- Yeah.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- Those must have been fun lessons.- Fantastic.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42Yeah, excellent. OK, now, there you are.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44If you can get below that red line with Neil Kinnock,
0:12:44 > 0:12:46you're through to the next round.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Let's see how many people said Neil Kinnock.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58Well done. You've done it. 12.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00APPLAUSE
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Taking your total up to a nice round 20.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Well done. Leader of the Opposition, of course.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08One of the longest-serving Leaders of the Opposition
0:13:08 > 0:13:11- in British history as well. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15- Now, James, remind us what you do. - I run a pub.- You run a pub.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17But not only that, you're a hospitality coach.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20- Correct.- How many people are under you?
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- How many people do you coach? - 16 front of house.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26And how often does that personnel change? I mean...
0:13:26 > 0:13:27We have quite a good turnover.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Um, university students coming back from...
0:13:29 > 0:13:32- So, they come in and you're coaching them...- That's the way.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34..all the way, keeping an eye on them.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37And then do you send them back with a score, do you?
0:13:37 > 0:13:39- We score in-house, yeah.- OK.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41- They forget it as soon as they walk out the door.- I see.
0:13:41 > 0:13:46- Now, so, James, we have to have a pointless answer from you.- OK.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48There'll be plenty there. It's politics.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50- I've got a couple.- Mm-hm.
0:13:50 > 0:13:54I think Ed Balls is holding or has held one of those positions,
0:13:54 > 0:13:56but I'm going to go for someone a little bit older,
0:13:56 > 0:13:59I think held maybe two positions in the '90s.
0:13:59 > 0:14:03- William Hague. - William Hague, says James.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05William Hague. Here is your red...
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Well, you just have to take it from me,
0:14:07 > 0:14:10there is a red line there, just we can't see it.
0:14:10 > 0:14:14I can, of course, but, yes, you won't be able to see it.
0:14:14 > 0:14:15Um, William Hague.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Let's see how many people said William Hague.
0:14:19 > 0:14:20It's right.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25It could be a very, very good answer.
0:14:25 > 0:14:26Oh, no, it's not. 26.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28APPLAUSE
0:14:28 > 0:14:31I am so sorry. That takes your total up to 53.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34He was Leader of the Opposition, of course,
0:14:34 > 0:14:37but I think, more famously, Foreign Secretary as well,
0:14:37 > 0:14:39which I suspect is where he got most of those points from.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42There's quite a few pointless answers, as you might expect.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Let's take you through a few of them.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Anthony Barber, Tory Chancellor of the Exchequer.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Anthony Crosland, who was Foreign Secretary for the Labour Party.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53Clement Attlee, who was Leader of the Opposition in the '50s.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55David Owen, Foreign Secretary, who is a pointless answer.
0:14:55 > 0:14:56Well done if you said that.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Derick Heathcoat-Amory and Iain Macleod,
0:14:59 > 0:15:01who were both Tory Chancellors.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04Lord Hailsham and Lord Irvine, both Lord Chancellors.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06And Rab Butler. Poor Rab Butler, who was Deputy Prime Minister,
0:15:06 > 0:15:08he was Chancellor and Foreign Secretary.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10What have you got to do to get a point on this show?
0:15:10 > 0:15:13LAUGHTER Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15At the end of our first round, the pair who are heading home
0:15:15 > 0:15:17with a high score of 53 - I'm so sorry -
0:15:17 > 0:15:19our only returning pair, James and Jessica.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21I'm sorry we have to say goodbye to you now,
0:15:21 > 0:15:23but thank you so much for playing.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27James and Jessica. APPLAUSE
0:15:27 > 0:15:30But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:15:30 > 0:15:35APPLAUSE
0:15:35 > 0:15:37And so, suddenly, we are down to three pairs.
0:15:37 > 0:15:41At the end of this round, we will be suddenly down to two.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Well, that far podium, you are on fire.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48Viv and Rosie, you are our joint individual low-scorers
0:15:48 > 0:15:50and you are our lowest team scorers.
0:15:50 > 0:15:51So, I mean, just fantastic is all I can say.
0:15:51 > 0:15:55But you've all done very well. Really good answers from all of you.
0:15:55 > 0:15:56Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...
0:16:01 > 0:16:02- Right.- Eurovision.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Zechariah's looking happy with that, I think.
0:16:04 > 0:16:05- Yeah, a bit happier.- Yeah? Good.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08Can you all decide who's going first, who's going second?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16OK, and the question concerns...
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Eurovision-winning Acts, Richard.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23It's all you need to know about students, isn't it?
0:16:23 > 0:16:25You've got Zechariah there.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27We asked him for Chancellors of the Exchequer.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30He's an economics student. Then, we asked for Eurovision and he goes,
0:16:30 > 0:16:32"Finally! Finally, something I'm good at. Phew!"
0:16:32 > 0:16:34We're going to show you the names now, on each board,
0:16:34 > 0:16:36of six Eurovision-winning acts and their songs.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Just need you to tell us which country they represented, please.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Going to be 12 in all to have a go at at home.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44We're just looking for the country represented by these acts.
0:16:44 > 0:16:45Here's our first board.
0:16:46 > 0:16:47And we have...
0:16:51 > 0:16:52I'm going to have fun with this(!)
0:17:09 > 0:17:11I'll read those all one last time.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33- Andy.- Um...
0:17:34 > 0:17:37..probably have to go with Rise Like A Phoenix, Conchita Wurst,
0:17:37 > 0:17:39- and that's Austria. - Austria, says Andy.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people
0:17:41 > 0:17:43said Austria for Conchita Wurst.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47It's right.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54Not bad. Look at that. 12.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56APPLAUSE
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Andy looking a little bit sheepish.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Yeah, well played, Andy. Very good answer.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03I wonder how many people are brilliant at the politics
0:18:03 > 0:18:04and the Eurovision things.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06The crossover on that one - interesting.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09- The Venn diagram is quite narrow. - Yes, one would imagine.
0:18:09 > 0:18:10Thank you very much, Richard.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Now, Zechariah, what would you like to go for here?
0:18:13 > 0:18:16- I may have spoken a little too soon. - LAUGHTER
0:18:16 > 0:18:21Um, and there's one which I'm definitely not going for,
0:18:21 > 0:18:25and therefore, I may have to gamble a little bit.
0:18:25 > 0:18:31I am going to go for the Poupee De Cire, Poupee De Son.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34- And is that France?- France.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37France. France Gall. France. Let's see if that's right,
0:18:37 > 0:18:39and let's see how many of our 100 people said France.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44Ooh! Zechariah, I'm sorry.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48Not France for Poupee De Cire. That scores you 100 points.
0:18:48 > 0:18:49Sorry, Zechariah.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52I mean, France means France and Gall means France.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54- I know.- So, you know.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57We're being led a merry dance there, aren't we?
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- We really are being led a merry dance by France.- Yeah.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04Thank you very much indeed. Now then, Rosie.
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Rosie, this board is all yours.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07If you wanted, you could waltz through it
0:19:07 > 0:19:10and fill in all the blanks for us.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12- No. - SHE LAUGHS
0:19:12 > 0:19:16Um, Celine Dion's Canadian, but I don't know.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Is Canada in the Eurovision? I don't know. Maybe it was France.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23Ein Bisschen Frieden - I'm guessing that's Germany.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26ABBA and Waterloo. Not going for that one!
0:19:26 > 0:19:31I'll go for Ein Bisschen Frieden, Nicole, and say Germany.
0:19:31 > 0:19:32Germany, says Rosie.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Stands to reason, doesn't it? Let's see if that's right for Nicole.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Let's see how many people said it.
0:19:39 > 0:19:40It's right.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47Good answer. 21. APPLAUSE
0:19:50 > 0:19:5221 for Germany.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54The first time they'd ever won. It means a little peace.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58It was a number one single over here as well. A Little Peace for Nicole.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00It's actually quite a tough board, this one.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02- Celine Dion - you either know it or you don't.- Oh, it's a...
0:20:02 > 0:20:04- Switzerland. - Switzerland, she represented.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07You don't have to be from the country at all.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09Um, 4 points for that. Waterloo.
0:20:09 > 0:20:14ABBA, of course, is Sweden. Big scorer. 86.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18Ding-A-Dong by Teach-In. Of course, our good friends...
0:20:18 > 0:20:19They love the show. ..from the Netherlands.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22Well done, the Netherlands. 3 points for that.
0:20:22 > 0:20:23Thanks for giving us Ding-A-Dong.
0:20:23 > 0:20:28And Poupee De Cire, Poupee De Son by France Gall is Luxembourg.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30- Of course it is. - And it's a pointless answer,
0:20:30 > 0:20:32so very well done if you said that.
0:20:32 > 0:20:33I hope it wasn't pointless on the night.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36LAUGHTER Well, thank you very much indeed.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.
0:20:39 > 0:20:40Andy, look at that.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Oh, you can go back proud now.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45You scored low in Eurovision, Andy. Well done.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Then up to 21, where we find Rosie and Viv.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Ooh. Zechariah and Joe, I'm afraid,
0:20:50 > 0:20:53100 there. Who knows? It might be a tough board, the next one,
0:20:53 > 0:20:54so there might be more 100s around.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57So, Joe, a low score from you might keep you in the game.
0:20:57 > 0:20:58We'll come back down the line now.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:03 > 0:21:06OK, let's put six more Eurovision songs and acts
0:21:06 > 0:21:08up on the board, and here they are.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10We've got...
0:21:28 > 0:21:30I'll read those all one last time.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Now then, Viv, remember, we are looking for the countries
0:21:47 > 0:21:51from which these singers and songs came together.
0:21:52 > 0:21:57Oh, dear. It's going to be a guess, whatever it is.
0:21:57 > 0:22:02Um, I'm going to go for the bottom one, Insieme,
0:22:02 > 0:22:04and I hope
0:22:04 > 0:22:07- it should be Italy.- It should be.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10It should be, but if the French one was wrong on the first round...
0:22:10 > 0:22:13Well, exactly. There's your red line. If you can get below that,
0:22:13 > 0:22:17you are through to the head-to-head. Let's see how many people said Italy.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22It's right. Well done and through you go.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30That is a pointless answer. APPLAUSE
0:22:30 > 0:22:31Very well done indeed.
0:22:31 > 0:22:36That adds £250 to today's jackpot, takes the total up to £2,250.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38It scores you nothing
0:22:38 > 0:22:39and leaves your total at 21.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42- Very well done indeed, Viv. - Well played, Viv.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Big risk there. You obviously know your Italian.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47- I studied Italian, I must say, at university.- Perfect.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49- It was my degree. - And insieme means...?
0:22:49 > 0:22:52- Together.- Together. Together - 1992 is the name of that song.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54It's about the year that the European Union...
0:22:54 > 0:22:56It's about the European Union.
0:22:56 > 0:22:57That's all you need to know about that.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59THEY LAUGH
0:22:59 > 0:23:03- Now, Joe. Joe.- Oh. - Yes, we need a low score from you.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07Yeah, no, this is the worst. This is not good.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Um, so, yeah, definitely have to be a guess.
0:23:10 > 0:23:14Um, so, let's go for Running Scared and United Kingdom.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Running Scared, the United Kingdom, Ell/Nikki. Let's see if that's right.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20No red line for you as you're the high-scorers,
0:23:20 > 0:23:22but let's see how many people said the United Kingdom.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Ooh! Pas Royaume...
0:23:27 > 0:23:30Royaume-Uni, I'm afraid. That scores you 100 points,
0:23:30 > 0:23:32takes you up to 200, which is kind of cool.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34LAUGHTER
0:23:34 > 0:23:36But I'm afraid it's an incorrect answer.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38That's the most points the UK have scored in Eurovision
0:23:38 > 0:23:40- for a very long time. - LAUGHTER
0:23:40 > 0:23:42So, thank you.
0:23:42 > 0:23:46Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now then, Lynn.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48Great news. You're through, doesn't matter what you score.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51- OK, that's good.- But we do still need an answer, of course.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54I know a few of them. What's Another Year is Ireland.
0:23:54 > 0:23:59I remember watching that. Um, Dana International - Israel?
0:23:59 > 0:24:01Hard Rock and Lordi - I remember watching that year.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05It's a Scandinavian country, but I'm not sure. Iceland, maybe?
0:24:05 > 0:24:06And the others, no.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08So, I'm going to go for What's Another Year
0:24:08 > 0:24:12- and Johnny Logan, Ireland. - Ireland, says Lynn. Ireland.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14No red line for you. You're already through.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16Let's see how many people said Ireland.
0:24:18 > 0:24:19It's right.
0:24:21 > 0:24:2363. APPLAUSE
0:24:25 > 0:24:2675 is your total,
0:24:26 > 0:24:28- but you're through anyhow. - Safely through.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31Famously won it three times, of course, Johnny Logan.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Twice as a performer, once as a songwriter as well.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Now, let's fill in the rest of this board, shall we?
0:24:36 > 0:24:39Diva, you were absolutely right, was Israel.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Dana International would have been a good scorer as well.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45Would have scored you 29. Hard Rock Hallelujah.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48- Finland...- Finland, yeah. - ..was the answer.
0:24:48 > 0:24:49Would have scored 13.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52Now, Fairytale, it's the biggest scoring
0:24:52 > 0:24:56- Eurovision entry in history. - Really?- In history.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Got the most points of any entry, and it came from Norway.
0:24:59 > 0:25:013 points for Norway.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Now, Running Scared - not United Kingdom.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06So close. So close. It's Azerbaijan.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08LAUGHTER
0:25:08 > 0:25:12- That would have scored 3 as well. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15So, at the end of our second round, the pair who are heading home,
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Joe and Zechariah, I'm afraid it is you this time.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20Um, yes, that was a tough board for you.
0:25:20 > 0:25:21Tough category, I think we might say.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25Had you gone the other way round, might it have been any different?
0:25:25 > 0:25:27- Yes.- Yes, good.- Yeah, it would have.
0:25:27 > 0:25:28We will see you again next time
0:25:28 > 0:25:30and I'm sure we'll see much more of you then.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33In the meantime, thanks very much for playing. Joe and Zechariah.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36APPLAUSE
0:25:36 > 0:25:38But for Viv and Rosie, Andy and Lynn,
0:25:38 > 0:25:40it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Very well done, Viv and Rosie, Andy and Lynn.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51You're now one step closer to the final
0:25:51 > 0:25:56and a chance to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at £2,250.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58AUDIENCE CHEERS
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Well, you know the score at this point.
0:26:02 > 0:26:03You can start playing as teams,
0:26:03 > 0:26:05first pair to win two questions plays for that jackpot.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16Here's your first question, and it concerns...
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Children from animated television shows. Richard.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23We'll show you five pictures of animated characters -
0:26:23 > 0:26:25they're all children.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27We just need you to give us their names, please.
0:26:27 > 0:26:28First names will be acceptable.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32OK, let's reveal our five pictures, and here they are.
0:26:32 > 0:26:33We have got...
0:26:51 > 0:26:54There we are. Five children from animations.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57Now, Viv and Rosie, you've been our low-scorers
0:26:57 > 0:27:01throughout the show, so you will go first.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04Leroy Jetson is B.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06- I don't know any of them.- Oh.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10So, I'll say B.
0:27:10 > 0:27:11We're going to go
0:27:11 > 0:27:15for B and say that's Leroy Jetson.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Leroy Jetson.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Leroy Jetson, say Viv and Rosie.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Now then, Andy and Lynn.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25A is Angelica from Rugrats.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27C's Horrid Henry, I think.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29D's Charlie Brown.
0:27:29 > 0:27:30We've no idea who E is.
0:27:30 > 0:27:31No idea who E is.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33- I think we're going to go for... - Angelica?
0:27:33 > 0:27:35A, Angelica from Rugrats.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37You're going to say A, Angelica.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41So, we have Leroy Jetson and we have Angelica from Rugrats.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44Viv and Rosie said Leroy Jetson for B.
0:27:44 > 0:27:45Let's see if that's right,
0:27:45 > 0:27:48let's see how many of our 100 people said Leroy.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52Ah!
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Ooh, not Leroy Jetson, as it happens.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Meanwhile, Andy and Lynn have said Angelica for A.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01Angelica from Rugrats. Let's see if that's right.
0:28:01 > 0:28:03All it has to be is right for you to win the point.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07And it is right. Very well done indeed.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12Good answer. 27. APPLAUSE
0:28:14 > 0:28:17After one question, Andy and Lynn, you are up 1-0.
0:28:17 > 0:28:18Well played, Andy and Lynn.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20Now, Viv and Rosie, one of those examples of
0:28:20 > 0:28:22you didn't give us the right answer,
0:28:22 > 0:28:24but you gave us an anagram of the right answer.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27- So, it's not Leroy Jetson, it's Elroy Jetson.- Aw!
0:28:27 > 0:28:30And that would've scored you 7 points,
0:28:30 > 0:28:32so would've been a terrific answer.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34C, it's not a Horrid Henry -
0:28:34 > 0:28:36it's the wonderful Stewie Griffin from Family Guy,
0:28:36 > 0:28:39voiced by Seth MacFarlane who created that show.
0:28:39 > 0:28:4036 points for that.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42Charlie Brown, of course.
0:28:43 > 0:28:45He would've scored you 67.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49And then, from King of the Hill,
0:28:49 > 0:28:52Hank Hill's son, Bobby. Bobby Hill.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54Would've score you 10 points. Well done if you got that.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57Thanks very much. So, here comes your second question.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00Now, Viv and Rosie, Andy and Lynn get to answer it first,
0:29:00 > 0:29:03but you have to win it to stay in the game, so best of luck with that.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05It concerns...
0:29:07 > 0:29:08Snooker. Richard.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11Five clues now to facts about the sport of snooker.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14We just need you to give us the most obscure answer, please.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16OK, let's reveal our five clues, and here they come.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18We have got...
0:29:37 > 0:29:38I'll read those all one last time.
0:29:55 > 0:29:56Andy and Lynn will go first.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00THEY WHISPER
0:30:01 > 0:30:05- Sheffield, I think, is the name of the UK city.- OK.
0:30:05 > 0:30:09Not a good subject, but I think the name of the UK city
0:30:09 > 0:30:12that has hosted the World Championship is Sheffield.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14Sheffield, say Andy and Lynn. Sheffield.
0:30:14 > 0:30:17Now, Viv and Rosie, over to you.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20I think the single game of snooker's a frame,
0:30:20 > 0:30:23Sheffield's definitely the city.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26I'm going to say top one, frame.
0:30:26 > 0:30:29- Frame.- Yeah. - So, we have Sheffield versus frame.
0:30:29 > 0:30:31Andy and Lynn said Sheffield. Let's see if that's right,
0:30:31 > 0:30:34let's see how many of our 100 people said Sheffield.
0:30:36 > 0:30:37It's right.
0:30:40 > 0:30:4255 for Sheffield. APPLAUSE
0:30:46 > 0:30:48Now, Viv and Rosie have gone for frame.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51Let's see if that's right for the name of a single game of snooker.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53How many people said frame?
0:30:55 > 0:30:56It's right.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58It's got to beat 55...
0:30:58 > 0:31:01- and it does. 47.- Ooh! - APPLAUSE
0:31:01 > 0:31:06Wow. Slightly surprise result there, I have to say.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08But well done, Viv and Rosie - that's fallen well for you.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11After two questions, you're back in the game. It's 1-1.
0:31:11 > 0:31:12Let's take a look at the rest of these.
0:31:12 > 0:31:16Now, the decade is the 1920s.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18Joe Davis won the first one. Would've scored you 3 points.
0:31:18 > 0:31:21They used to go on endlessly, these World finals.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23They'd go on for weeks, hundreds and hundreds of frames
0:31:23 > 0:31:25between two people.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28The Scottish snooker player is Stephen Hendry.
0:31:28 > 0:31:30Would've scored you 32.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33And the snooker-themed TV show.
0:31:33 > 0:31:34Big Break.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Big Break is exactly the answer, yeah.
0:31:36 > 0:31:40- Would've scored you 26. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:31:40 > 0:31:41Here comes your third question.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44Whoever wins this one goes through to the final and plays for that jackpot.
0:31:44 > 0:31:48Best of luck. Our third question this afternoon concerns...
0:31:49 > 0:31:52VIV GROANS The Welsh language. Richard.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54We're going to give you five Welsh words now
0:31:54 > 0:31:58alongside the first letters of their English translation.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00Can you tell us what that translation is, please?
0:32:00 > 0:32:01Very best of luck.
0:32:01 > 0:32:03OK, let's reveal our five Welsh words.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05I'll try and pronounce them.
0:32:05 > 0:32:07Apologies to any Welsh...
0:32:07 > 0:32:09I haven't chance, but anyway, we'll have a go.
0:32:21 > 0:32:23I'll read those again.
0:32:32 > 0:32:36OK. Now then, Viv and Rosie, you will go first.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38- Number three is good morning. - Yes, I know.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40And number four is Wales.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43- Yeah, I would go for croeso or bore da.- Yes.
0:32:43 > 0:32:45Or is araf salt?
0:32:45 > 0:32:47Right...
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Not being a Welsh speaker, nor is Rosie...
0:32:49 > 0:32:52- Bore da.- Good morning.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54Beautifully said, by the way. VIV CHUCKLES
0:32:54 > 0:32:56You're going to go for that. Bore da, good morning.
0:32:56 > 0:32:59Now then, Andy and Lynn, do you fancy talking us through that board?
0:32:59 > 0:33:03I think araf is stop.
0:33:03 > 0:33:07Nadolig Llawen is close to Gaelic,
0:33:07 > 0:33:09and that's Merry Christmas.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11Cymru, Wales, and croeso, welcome.
0:33:13 > 0:33:15- What are we going to go for? - Nadolig Llawen.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18We're going to go for Merry Christmas, Nadolig Llawen.
0:33:18 > 0:33:19Nadolig Llawen.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22OK, let's see if that's Merry Christmas. Let's see.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Good morning, said Viv and Rosie, for bore da.
0:33:25 > 0:33:26Let's see that's right,
0:33:26 > 0:33:28let's see how many people said it if it is.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32It's right.
0:33:34 > 0:33:3749 for bore da. APPLAUSE
0:33:39 > 0:33:45Meanwhile, Andy and Lynn have gone for Nadolig Llawen.
0:33:45 > 0:33:49Apologies to any Welsh speakers out there, but Nadolig Llawen.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51Let's see how many we of our 100 people said that. Is it right?
0:33:54 > 0:33:55It is right.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59Yep, it wins you the point.
0:33:59 > 0:34:00Very well done indeed.
0:34:00 > 0:34:0227 for that. APPLAUSE
0:34:02 > 0:34:04And it means, Andy and Lynn, after three questions,
0:34:04 > 0:34:06you're through to the final 2-1.
0:34:07 > 0:34:08Yeah, very well played.
0:34:08 > 0:34:10Now, that top one is interesting, araf,
0:34:10 > 0:34:12which I think you said was stop.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15I think you said that because people who've driven a lot in Wales
0:34:15 > 0:34:17know it because it's actually slow.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20- Ah.- Slow is the answer.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Would've scored you 23.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24Welsh for stop is stop.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26Funnily enough.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29Cymru, of course, is Wales.
0:34:30 > 0:34:32Would've scored you 87. A big scorer.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35And that bottom one is welcome.
0:34:35 > 0:34:37And that's a big scorer as well, actually - 41.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40So, slow was the best answer on that board.
0:34:40 > 0:34:42Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44OK, so the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:34:44 > 0:34:46it's Viv and Rosie.
0:34:46 > 0:34:50Well, I mean, you haven't really put a foot wrong at all until this point.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52Leroy let you down.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54HE SIGHS But apart from that,
0:34:54 > 0:34:56it's been an immaculate performance across the show.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58We'll see you next time.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00I'm sure you'll do just as well, if not better.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02We look forward to that very much. Thanks very much.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05- Viv and Rosie.- Thank you.- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:35:06 > 0:35:09But for Andy and Lynn, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17Congratulations, Andy and Lynn. You've seen off all the competition
0:35:17 > 0:35:19and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,
0:35:27 > 0:35:31and at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £2,250.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33AUDIENCE CHEERS
0:35:35 > 0:35:37Well, you did it.
0:35:37 > 0:35:39The seemingly unstoppable Viv and Rosie,
0:35:39 > 0:35:42you know, they looked like they were steaming through to the final,
0:35:42 > 0:35:44and you just edged them out at the last minute -
0:35:44 > 0:35:46very cleverly done.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48Let's hope there's something you like the look of.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51Today's selection of categories looks like this.
0:35:51 > 0:35:52We've got...
0:35:58 > 0:36:01California could be geography and stuff like that,
0:36:01 > 0:36:02but Blues Brothers?
0:36:02 > 0:36:05Could be blues musicians, in which case, that'd be rubbish.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07- California.- California?- California.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10- We'll go for California. - California, it is. Richard.
0:36:10 > 0:36:11OK, very best of luck.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14Three very different questions here. I hope one of them suits you.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16We are looking for the name of anyone
0:36:16 > 0:36:17who has been governor of California,
0:36:17 > 0:36:21all the way through from 1849 through to May 2015.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23We're looking for any of the cast members
0:36:23 > 0:36:26of the 1997 film LA Confidential according to IMDB.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29Or any cities or towns in California beginning with San,
0:36:29 > 0:36:31any incorporated
0:36:31 > 0:36:33city or incorporated town in California
0:36:33 > 0:36:35beginning with the letters S-A-N.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37So, governors, cast of LA Confidential
0:36:37 > 0:36:40or towns and cities beginning S-A-N.
0:36:40 > 0:36:43- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46Now, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers,
0:36:46 > 0:36:48and all you need to win that jackpot
0:36:48 > 0:36:50is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:50 > 0:36:51- Are ready?- Yes.- Yes.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54OK. Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56There they are. Your times starts now.
0:36:56 > 0:36:59Forget about the governors cos I haven't got the foggiest.
0:36:59 > 0:37:01- Arnold Schwarzenegger. - Well, Arnold Schwarzenegger, yeah...
0:37:01 > 0:37:03OK. Cities with San.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Was San Bernardino in California when we did Route 66?
0:37:05 > 0:37:06Yes, it is.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08Santa Barbara. Santa Barbara as well.
0:37:08 > 0:37:11LA Confidential - the only one I know is Kevin Spacey, I think.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13I think he got shot in the end.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16OK. I don't know any of those, so...
0:37:16 > 0:37:17Well, let's go with the Sans, then.
0:37:17 > 0:37:21- So, we'll go with Santa Barbara, San Bernardino...- San Diego.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25- Yeah, San Diego would be good. - Do you want to go
0:37:25 > 0:37:28for Arnold Schwarzenegger or do you think that would be quite high?
0:37:28 > 0:37:30That'll be very high. I would go with the three Sans.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32- San Bernardino...- Any other Sans?
0:37:32 > 0:37:34Did we go through any when we were driving up Route 1?
0:37:34 > 0:37:37- I can't remember.- Let me think. - I can't remember.
0:37:37 > 0:37:40- Where's Hearst Castle?- No, that's...
0:37:40 > 0:37:42- That's Morro Bay. - That was Morro Bay.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45- No, I would go with... - Further north... Oakland.
0:37:45 > 0:37:46Ten seconds left.
0:37:46 > 0:37:50No. I'm not sure San Bernardino's in California.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52I think it was, cos I remember going through it.
0:37:52 > 0:37:56- OK. San Diego...- Yeah.- San...
0:37:56 > 0:37:58OK, that's your time up.
0:37:58 > 0:37:59What three answers are you going to give me?
0:37:59 > 0:38:01Say which category you're answering as well.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03We're going for the third category, Xander,
0:38:03 > 0:38:06which is cities of California beginning with San.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09- And we're going to go with San Bernardino...- San Bernardino.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12- ..Santa Barbara...- Santa Barbara.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14..and...
0:38:14 > 0:38:17- What was the third from? San... - San Diego.- San Diego.
0:38:17 > 0:38:18And San Diego. Of those three,
0:38:18 > 0:38:21which is your best shot at a pointless answer, do you think?
0:38:21 > 0:38:23- San Bernardino. - San Bernardino goes last.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25Least likely to be pointless?
0:38:25 > 0:38:28- San Diego.- San Diego. - San Diego, we put first.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30OK, well, let's pop those up on the board in that order then,
0:38:30 > 0:38:31and here they are.
0:38:31 > 0:38:32We've got...
0:38:36 > 0:38:39Well, very best of luck. Three good answers on the board there.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41One of those, at least, might be pointless
0:38:41 > 0:38:42and might win you that jackpot.
0:38:42 > 0:38:462,250 quid - not a bad jackpot to be taking home.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48Andy, what would you like to do with that?
0:38:48 > 0:38:51Well, for about 26 years, I've been promising Lynn a honeymoon,
0:38:51 > 0:38:53so that would help go towards it.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56Yeah, I can't imagine you're going to argue with that, Lynn.
0:38:56 > 0:38:59- THEY LAUGH - So it's all riding on this.
0:38:59 > 0:39:03That goes towards it. A tiny fraction, I should think.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05Anything else you'd like to do with it, Lynn?
0:39:05 > 0:39:08Well, I've recently become a recipient of a hearing dog
0:39:08 > 0:39:09because I have a hearing loss,
0:39:09 > 0:39:14and we'd like to give a big donation to hearing dogs for deaf people.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17Very good indeed. Well, very, very best of luck.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19The category that you've answered with all of these
0:39:19 > 0:39:22is Californian cities beginning with S-A-N.
0:39:22 > 0:39:25OK, so, your first answer was San Diego.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27It has to be pointless for you to win this.
0:39:27 > 0:39:31So, for £2,250, let's see how many people said San Diego.
0:39:33 > 0:39:34It's right.
0:39:36 > 0:39:37All that has to happen now
0:39:37 > 0:39:40is that it has to go down to zero.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42San Diego now taking us through the 30s.
0:39:42 > 0:39:4334.
0:39:43 > 0:39:47APPLAUSE 34.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50Not a terrible score, but not a pointless score either.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53So therefore, you only have two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56Your next answer was Santa Barbara.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58It has to be pointless for you to win,
0:39:58 > 0:40:02so for £2,250, let's see how many of our 100 people said Santa Barbara.
0:40:06 > 0:40:07It's right.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10San Diego took us all the way down to 34,
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Santa Barbara takes us comfortably past 34,
0:40:13 > 0:40:15through the 20s, into the teens.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Into single figures, still going down...
0:40:17 > 0:40:205. APPLAUSE
0:40:20 > 0:40:225 for Santa Barbara.
0:40:22 > 0:40:26Another lovely score there... But not pointless.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28Everything is now riding on your third and final answer.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30This is the one you thought was probably your best shot
0:40:30 > 0:40:32at a pointless answer - it's San Bernardino.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34Let's see how many people said it.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37If nobody said it, you will leave here with £2,250.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40Very best of luck. How many people said San Bernardino?
0:40:45 > 0:40:46Well, we're off to a good start.
0:40:46 > 0:40:4934 people said San Diego,
0:40:49 > 0:40:525 people said Santa Barbara.
0:40:52 > 0:40:53San Bernardino now taking us down
0:40:53 > 0:40:55through the single figures, passing 5...
0:40:55 > 0:40:57- Oh, 4.- Oh!
0:40:57 > 0:40:59Oh, bad luck. APPLAUSE
0:41:03 > 0:41:07Two excellent answers there. Really, really close.
0:41:07 > 0:41:08I'm sorry that you didn't manage to find
0:41:08 > 0:41:10that all-important pointless answer,
0:41:10 > 0:41:13so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £2,250.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15That rolls over onto the next show.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18But it's been great having you on the show, really strong performance.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20And you made it through to the final,
0:41:20 > 0:41:22and you get a pointless trophy each to take home,
0:41:22 > 0:41:23so very, very well done.
0:41:23 > 0:41:26Let's take a look through the pointless answers
0:41:26 > 0:41:27on all the different categories.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29We'll start with the governors.
0:41:29 > 0:41:31Pat Brown was a pointless answer,
0:41:31 > 0:41:34Gray Davis who was governor just before Schwarzenegger
0:41:34 > 0:41:35was a pointless answer.
0:41:35 > 0:41:38Leland Stanford, who set up Stamford University with his wife.
0:41:38 > 0:41:39Peter Burnett.
0:41:39 > 0:41:41He was governor even before it was a state, Pete Bennett.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43In fact, everybody apart from Schwarzenegger,
0:41:43 > 0:41:45who would've scored you 75,
0:41:45 > 0:41:47Ronald Reagan would've scored you 18,
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Jerry Brown - 4, and Earl Warren - 1.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Everybody else was a pointless answer in that category.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Let's take a look at LA Confidential.
0:41:57 > 0:42:00Everybody apart from Russell Crowe, Kim Basinger,
0:42:00 > 0:42:02Guy Pearce, Kevin Spacey, Danny DeVito,
0:42:02 > 0:42:04James Cromwell and Simon Baker.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Everybody else was pointless in that,
0:42:06 > 0:42:07so if you got one, very well done.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10Let's take some of these Sans.
0:42:10 > 0:42:14Now, fans of Bill and Ted will know the top one - San Dimas,
0:42:14 > 0:42:17which is where Bill and Ted, both Bill and Ted films are set.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20San Marcos, San Mateo, Santa Fe Springs.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22There's the ones you could've guessed at.
0:42:22 > 0:42:23There's Santa Maria, Santa Ana.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26Sand City was my favourite one of them.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28Very well done if you got any of those at home.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30The only ones that scored any points at all
0:42:30 > 0:42:32were San Francisco, San Diego, San Jose, Santa Monica,
0:42:32 > 0:42:34Santa Barbara, San Bernardino,
0:42:34 > 0:42:36so very well done if you got any of the pointless answers,
0:42:36 > 0:42:39- and unlucky in the studio. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you,
0:42:41 > 0:42:43but it's been fantastic having you on.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46Thank you for coming and playing. Great contestants.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49Andy and Lynn. APPLAUSE
0:42:49 > 0:42:52So, sadly, Andy and Lynn didn't win our jackpot today,
0:42:52 > 0:42:54which means it rolls over onto the next show
0:42:54 > 0:42:57when we'll be playing for £3,250.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59AUDIENCE CHEERS
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Join us then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:03 > 0:43:05And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
