APPLAUSE | 0:00:20 | 0:00:22 | |
Thank you very much indeed. Hello. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:23 | |
I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless, the show where | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
the aim is to avoid the obvious answers and find the obscure ones. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
Let's meet today's players. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
And couple number one. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:36 | |
Hello, my name is Caroline. This is my husband Conrad | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
and we live in Barry, South Wales. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
-Couple number two. -Hi, my name is Jordan. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
I'm from Dunfermline and this is my friend Elena. She's from Essex. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
-Couple number three. -Hi, my name is Adele. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
This is my husband Dave and we live in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
And finally, couple number four. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:52 | |
Hello. My name is Steve. This is my friend David | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
and although he now lives in Walthamstow, we're both from Essex. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
And these are today's contestants. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
Thanks very much, all of you. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:02 | |
We will find out more about you through the show as it goes along, | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
so that just leaves one more person for me to introduce. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
RO is the chemical symbol for quizzing excellence | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
and it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
Hiya. Afternoon. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:01:15 | 0:01:16 | |
-Good afternoon to you. -And to you. -Are you well? | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
-I am well, actually. -That is good to hear. -Isn't that good? | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
Because I know your back has been playing up a little bit. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
-It's been... Yes, it's fine. -How is it now? | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
-But look at the way you're standing. -I know. No wonder it's playing up. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
It's because you talk to me. If you never spoke to me | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
you'd be straight on and that back would be no problem at all. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |
I'm the same as well because I'm doing that. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
-Let's just do the whole show like that. -Yeah. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
I might put a mirror in the middle of the set so I can see you | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
and talk to you through that. That would be quite nice. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
-That would be amazing. -Or how about I don't talk to you at all? | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
-Aw! -Aw! | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
No, I would like one of those little convex mirrors like that, | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
like people have where they have hidden turnings | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
so I don't have to turn and look at the tower, | 0:01:56 | 0:01:58 | |
-because that's what does it, I think. -I think it does. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
It's my RSI from doing this. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
You see, there it goes. Oh! | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
-There we are. -We've given away two jackpots in a row. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
-I know. -One returning pair from that last show. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
Adele and David got through to the head-to-head. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
Very, very good pair, so I suspect they might do rather well today. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
-Hmm. -We'll find out, won't we? -I think we will. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
-And if you get any twinges at all, you just let us know. -I will. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
Thank you very much indeed, Richard. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:22 | |
So, John and Anne won the jackpot last time, | 0:02:22 | 0:02:26 | |
so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000. There it is. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:29 | |
Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
So all you have to remember is that the pair with the highest score | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
at the end of each round will be eliminated. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
That is it, that is the only rule. Best of luck to all four pairs. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
Our first category this afternoon is... | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
It's films. Can you all decide in your pairs | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
who's to go first, who's to go second? And whoever is going first, | 0:02:51 | 0:02:55 | |
please step up to the podium. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:56 | |
OK, and the question concerns... | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
Films with countries in their titles. Richard. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
Yes, on each pass we'll show you the names of seven films | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
but we've missed out one word from each of them | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
and that word is a country. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:13 | |
Can you tell us what the country is, please? | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
There'll be 14 in all to have a go at at home. Very best of luck. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
Thanks very much indeed. OK, so we're looking for the countries | 0:03:17 | 0:03:20 | |
that complete these film titles, and here's our first board of seven. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
I'll read those all one last time. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
A warm welcome to Pointless. Good to have you here from Barry. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
-Yes. -And what do you do in Barry, Conrad? -I'm a bus driver in Cardiff, | 0:04:01 | 0:04:06 | |
-which is close to Barry. -Not too far away. -No. -Not too far. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
Are you always on the same route? | 0:04:10 | 0:04:11 | |
No, we do various different routes. Gives it a bit of variety. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:15 | |
Yeah, now listen to that unmistakable little Barry brogue. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:19 | |
-Yes, isn't it? -Do you remember Barry Brogue? | 0:04:19 | 0:04:21 | |
Oh, he was a lovely fellow. Terrific guy. What happened to him? | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
Well, what is your accent, Conrad? That's not Welsh. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
-South African. -South African, I knew it! I knew it! | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
How long have you been over here? | 0:04:30 | 0:04:31 | |
-About ten years. -Ten years? That's pretty... Do you think | 0:04:31 | 0:04:35 | |
that's long enough for you to have picked up the kind of Pointless... | 0:04:35 | 0:04:38 | |
just the sort of peripheral Pointless knowledge you need? | 0:04:38 | 0:04:41 | |
There's some British knowledge that I will struggle with, | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
but at least I've got my wife to help me out with that. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
Well, exactly, you've just got to get to the head-to-head round, | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
-then you can relax. -Conrad, can I ask a question? | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
-Do you wave at other bus drivers when you go by? -I try not to. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
-Oh, I like that. -It's sort of this unwritten rule that you have to. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
Yeah. But you won't have it, not having it? | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
-If they wave first, then I'll wave back. -But otherwise... | 0:04:59 | 0:05:04 | |
Otherwise it's just straight ahead and let's go. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
-I like it when bus drivers wave to each other. -I like that. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
What I also like is people saying thank you when they get off a bus. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:11 | |
-That's very nice. -That's nice, isn't it? -Yeah. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
Anyway, now, Conrad, Conrad, countries missing from film titles. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:17 | |
This is a fairly nice | 0:05:17 | 0:05:18 | |
-international question for you there. -Yeah. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
There's a few on there | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
that look familiar, but I think... | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
I'll stick with the African theme | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
and go for Hotel Rwanda. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
Hotel Rwanda, says Conrad. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
Let's see how many of our 100 people said Hotel Rwanda. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
It's right. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
That's a good answer. Look at that, 7. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
Very well done indeed, Conrad. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:47 | |
Off to a rollicking start there. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
Brilliant score. 7 for Hotel Rwanda. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
Great start, Conrad, terrific stuff, yes, | 0:05:51 | 0:05:53 | |
stars Don Cheadle as a hotel manager. True story. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
Thanks very much. A great film. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
-Elena, welcome to Pointless. -Hello. -Lovely to have you here. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:01 | |
-What do you do, Elena? -I'm an actor. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:03 | |
-You're an actor? -Yeah. -What kind of actor are you? | 0:06:03 | 0:06:07 | |
Mainly fringe productions and things like that | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
and I met Jordan at drama school. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
-And you've been doing lots of fringe things? -Yeah. -Where are you based? | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
-In Essex. -In Essex? -Yeah. -So do you come into London | 0:06:14 | 0:06:17 | |
-to do those fringe things? -Yeah, it's a really easy route. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:20 | |
Lots of nice fringe theatres. But it's great, | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
the distance from fringe theatre to West End is really not that far. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
It's not that far. I mean, the number of things that cross over | 0:06:25 | 0:06:28 | |
-and do well... -Yeah. -The number of actors who then get picked up | 0:06:28 | 0:06:31 | |
-and found in fringe theatres. -That's the dream. -Absolutely. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
-Have you sorted an agent out yet? -No. Jordan has one. He's lucky. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
-Richard's starting an agency. -Are you? -Yeah. -Yes. -I'm tall, so... | 0:06:37 | 0:06:41 | |
It's a bus drivers' agency, I'm afraid. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:06:44 | 0:06:45 | |
But, you know, we are still looking for people. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:47 | |
-And estate agency as well. -Can you show me how you wave? | 0:06:47 | 0:06:51 | |
-You're in. You are in. -Thanks. -That's perfect. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
-Elena... -Hello. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:55 | |
-What would you like to go for on this board? -Erm... | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
There's one that I'm not sure of | 0:06:58 | 0:06:59 | |
and I don't know whether to risk it. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
I'm going to go for it. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
Number two, Jamaica Inn. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
Jamaica Inn, says Elena. Jamaica Inn. Sounds brilliant to me. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:08 | |
Let's see how many of our 100 people said Jamaica Inn. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
Absolutely right. Good risk, Elena. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:16 | |
Good-ish risk, Elena. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:07:20 | 0:07:21 | |
50 for Jamaica Inn. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
Directed by Alfred Hitchcock, of course, | 0:07:23 | 0:07:26 | |
-from the Daphne Du Maurier novel. -Thanks very much indeed, Richard. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:30 | |
Now then, Adele, welcome back. Now, remind us what you do, Adele. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
I work in retail. I'm an operations manager at a department store. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
-Right you are. In Harrogate? -In Harrogate, yes. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
That's right. So how far is that from Knaresborough? | 0:07:40 | 0:07:43 | |
-Oh, about 15 minutes' drive. -Is it really? | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
Yeah, it's about ten minutes. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:47 | |
Oh, for heaven's sake! There we are. I need to... | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
I have these little corners of Britain where I just forget | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
that actually of course that's quite close. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
Your knowledge of how close Knaresborough is to Harrogate | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
-is absolutely shocking! -I know! | 0:07:57 | 0:08:00 | |
You, my friend, | 0:08:00 | 0:08:01 | |
are not going to get a place in my bus drivers' agency, I'm afraid. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:05 | |
-Look at this! Hang on. -Go on. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:07 | |
I don't think so, Conrad. Do you? | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
HE MAKES TOOTING NOISES | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
-You are... -That's me passing Conrad. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:16 | |
You are one-handed on the wheel for too long there, my friend. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:20 | |
Don't you think? I mean, all sorts of things could have happened | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
in that time. You're a liability! | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:08:24 | 0:08:25 | |
Thank you very much indeed, Richard. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
OK, Adele, what are you going to go for? | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
Well, this is not a good category | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
for me, really, films. I know a few. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
Um... | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
But I think I'll go for... | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:38 | |
Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, says Adele. Let's see if it's right, | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
let's see how many of our 100 people said Madagascar. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
It's right. Our high score is 50. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
Our low score is 7. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
Well, you passed 50. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:51 | |
19. Not bad at all. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:08:53 | 0:08:55 | |
Yeah, it's a low scorer, that. | 0:08:57 | 0:08:58 | |
I think it's a weird thing that Madagascar the film | 0:08:58 | 0:09:00 | |
is more famous than Madagascar the country now, in a funny kind of way, | 0:09:00 | 0:09:04 | |
so people sort of forget that it's... I think | 0:09:04 | 0:09:07 | |
-they don't associate that name with a country. -Interesting. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:11 | |
-The country is Madagascar. -There we are. -There we go. -There we are. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:15 | |
Now then, David, a warm welcome to you, David, | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
here originally from Essex, now from Walthamstow. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
-Yes. -And what do you do, David? -I'm an author. -You're an author? | 0:09:21 | 0:09:24 | |
What books do you write? What sorts of books do you write? | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
I mainly write books on true crime and conspiracy theories. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
Oh, but those are great books, the best kind of books. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
Very exciting. What are you working on at the moment? | 0:09:33 | 0:09:36 | |
I'm actually working on something completely different. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
I'm working on a novel and working on a book about Epping Forest. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
I see. Is the novel your first work of fiction? | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
It's not my first work of fiction | 0:09:45 | 0:09:46 | |
but it's the one I'm really looking forward to actually finishing | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
-and I'm really loving it. -And it's on track? | 0:09:49 | 0:09:51 | |
When do you reckon it will be out? | 0:09:51 | 0:09:53 | |
-Next year? -Good, good stuff. Well, good luck with that. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
Now, David, you're the last person | 0:09:55 | 0:09:57 | |
to have this board. If you fancied it, you could talk us through it | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
-and fill in all the blanks for us. -Uh... | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
Well, the most obvious one is From Russia With Love. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
I'm torn between which one I want to go for | 0:10:05 | 0:10:07 | |
because I think the final one is The Tailor Of Panama | 0:10:07 | 0:10:09 | |
but I think the first one is Big Trouble In Little China. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:12 | |
I think I'm going to go for | 0:10:12 | 0:10:13 | |
Big Trouble In Little China because I like it. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:16 | |
Big Trouble In Little China, says David. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:17 | |
Let's see how many of our 100 people said that. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:20 | |
36 for China. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:10:29 | 0:10:31 | |
36. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:33 | |
Not a bad score but you would have done better if you had gone for | 0:10:33 | 0:10:36 | |
The Tailor Of Panama because that would have scored you 11 points, | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
would have been a terrific answer, | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
based on the John Le Carre novel, of course. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
It is From Russia With Love, that's the biggest scorer up there, | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
From Russia With Love would have scored you 87. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:48 | |
Now, this last one, it's got Emma Thompson in it. | 0:10:48 | 0:10:51 | |
It's also got Antonio Banderas in it | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
and it is Imagining Argentina, | 0:10:53 | 0:10:57 | |
and it's a pointless answer, so very well done if you said that at home. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
Very good indeed. Thank you very much, Richard. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
OK, halfway through the round, let's take a look at those scores. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
7 the best score of the pass. Very well done indeed, Conrad. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
Then we travel up to 19, Adele and Dave, we find there, | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
36, David and Steve, and then | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
up to 50 for Elena and Jordan. Now, Jordan, we need | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
a low score from you. You're not way ahead but a nice low score from you | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
should keep you in the game, so best of luck with that. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players please step up to the podium? | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
OK, we're going to put seven more film titles up on the board, | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
and here they come. We have got... | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
I'll read those one last time. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
-Steve. -Hello. -A warm welcome to you, sir. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
What do you do? | 0:12:06 | 0:12:07 | |
I'm afraid I'm an accountant, which is every bit as boring as you think. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:10 | |
Oh, don't be afraid! | 0:12:10 | 0:12:12 | |
I am. Well, it is. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:13 | |
-But you don't find it boring, though, do you? -Uh... | 0:12:13 | 0:12:16 | |
-Sometimes. -Sometimes! But sometimes it's got to be exciting! | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
Sometimes it's just a little bit routine. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:21 | |
Getting things to add up, I mean, that's quite satisfying, isn't it? | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
It's like sort of numerical Tetris. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:26 | |
-Something like that. -Just making things fit the right way. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:29 | |
-Yet, but usually someone's hidden some of the pieces. -Anyway, | 0:12:29 | 0:12:32 | |
when you're not accounting, Steve, what do you do? | 0:12:32 | 0:12:34 | |
I play the bagpipes. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:36 | |
See, that's marvellous. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | |
How long have you played them for? | 0:12:38 | 0:12:39 | |
Since I was about yea high, I'm afraid. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:41 | |
Stop being afraid! It's lovely. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:43 | |
You'd be surprised what this place does to you. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:12:46 | 0:12:47 | |
Very nice. One day, I want to learn the Northumbrian pipes. | 0:12:47 | 0:12:50 | |
It's like a little small pipe. It's beautiful. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
Yeah, they're... | 0:12:52 | 0:12:54 | |
With Highland bagpipes you blow, with the Northumbrian bagpipes | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
-you have a... -You have a bellow. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:58 | |
I tried them once and I felt like a demented chicken. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:01 | |
I don't know, I like the demented chicken element. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:03 | |
I think that's good. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:04 | |
-Well, OK. -Anyway, now, Steve, there you are, on 36. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:07 | |
If you can score 13 or less, you are through to the next round. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:10 | |
Okey dokey. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
If It's Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
Belgium, says Steve. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:18 | |
Belgium. Here's your red line. It's going to be low. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:21 | |
Let's see if you can get below that with Belgium. Maybe. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:23 | |
Oh, that's good, Steve. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:31 | |
Oh, that's very good. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:33 | |
Look at that. 7. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:34 | |
Equalling our lowest score of the round from Conrad there. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:37 | |
Very well done. 43 is your total. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:40 | |
That's a great answer, Steve, very well played. An Ian McShane film, | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
he's sort of a tour guide, shows lots of Americans around Europe. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:46 | |
Thanks very much indeed, Richard. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:48 | |
Now, Dave, welcome back. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:50 | |
Welcome back, Dave. Remind us what you do. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
I'm an information security expert for a retailer. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:58 | |
So when you say that, does that mean you're stopping hackers? Is that basically | 0:13:58 | 0:14:02 | |
-what you're trying to do? -Yes. Risk management against hackers. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
-On a grocery website. -Yeah. -This is a huge online | 0:14:05 | 0:14:07 | |
-ordering website. -Yeah. -So I guess | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
a hacker could run riot on that, couldn't they? | 0:14:09 | 0:14:12 | |
-They can, yes. But not on my watch. -No! Not when you're there, Dave. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:16 | |
And your interests, Dave, when you're not keeping us all safe... | 0:14:16 | 0:14:19 | |
Yeah, nowadays it's golf and table tennis. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:23 | |
But you were a rugby player in your time. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
I was a rugby player and football player. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:27 | |
Where did you play in rugby? What was your position? | 0:14:27 | 0:14:29 | |
-I was second row. -Second row. -Second row, rugby union. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
Very good. OK, now, Dave, there you are, you're on 19. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
The high-scorers are still Jordan and Elena on 50, | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |
so 30 or less gets you through. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
So when it came up films, I thought I'd be good at this, but... | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
Not quite as good as I thought, so again, | 0:14:44 | 0:14:47 | |
I'm going to stay reasonably safe. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:49 | |
I will go for A Passage To India. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:51 | |
A Passage To India, says Dave. Here's your red line. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:53 | |
If you can get below that with A Passage To India, | 0:14:53 | 0:14:56 | |
you are through to the next round. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:57 | |
Let's see how many people said India. | 0:14:57 | 0:14:59 | |
Whee-ay-oo-ee! | 0:15:02 | 0:15:04 | |
88 of them! | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
SCATTERED APPLAUSE | 0:15:06 | 0:15:07 | |
Wow! Popular. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
Popular answer, that one. That takes your total up to 107. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
A big relief for Jordan and Elena there. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:15 | |
Yeah, A Passage To India, very high name recognition, isn't it? | 0:15:15 | 0:15:18 | |
Peggy Ashcroft won an Oscar for her role in that. EM Forster novel. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:22 | |
Mmm. Good film. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:24 | |
Now, Jordan, what about that? | 0:15:24 | 0:15:26 | |
-Should we all just say, "Phew" for a moment? That was... -For now. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:30 | |
-For now! -Yeah, that was all looking a bit touch-and-go till that point. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
Jordan, what do you do? | 0:15:33 | 0:15:34 | |
-I'm an actor as well. -Also an actor. -Yeah. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:36 | |
And you met Elena studying acting. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:38 | |
At drama school in Manchester, yeah. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:40 | |
-In Manchester. And you also graduated last year. -Last year. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
And how's it been this year for you? | 0:15:43 | 0:15:45 | |
It's... It takes some adjusting to. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
But you've got your agent. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:48 | |
-Yeah, yeah, I do. -Which is exciting. -Yeah, that's something. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
Have you and Elena appeared in things together since you left? | 0:15:51 | 0:15:54 | |
Not since we left. Plays in drama school but nothing since. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:56 | |
It's quite nice, though, | 0:15:56 | 0:15:58 | |
when you've got groups of friends and maybe... | 0:15:58 | 0:16:00 | |
Have you got friends who may be aspiring directors, | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
-friends who are aspiring writers? -Yeah. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
-And you can kind of put things on informally. -Yeah, absolutely. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
-Yet, it's great fun, that. -Creating our own material | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
-really is kind of the way forward, I think. -I think it is. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:12 | |
-Unless you get lucky. -Creating your own company, | 0:16:12 | 0:16:14 | |
putting things on yourself, is a great way of getting things done, | 0:16:14 | 0:16:17 | |
-keeping you busy as well. -Yeah. -Now, there you are on 50. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
107 is the high score, so if you can score 56 or less, | 0:16:20 | 0:16:24 | |
you're into the next round. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |
Well, films is probably my ideal category. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:28 | |
I know three confidently, | 0:16:28 | 0:16:30 | |
so it's which one to go for. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:32 | |
I think I'm going to go for Grace of Monaco. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:35 | |
Grace of Monaco, says Jordan. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:37 | |
Grace of Monaco. There is your red line. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
If you get below that, you're through to the next round. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:41 | |
How many people said Monaco? | 0:16:41 | 0:16:42 | |
It's right. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:47 | |
Through you go. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:48 | |
22! | 0:16:50 | 0:16:51 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
72 is your total and you are into Round Two. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
Well played, Jordan. Starring Nicole Kidman, a very famous flop film. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
-Didn't even release it in the States, eventually. -Really? | 0:16:59 | 0:17:02 | |
-It did so badly. -They didn't even dare? -Yeah. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:04 | |
Jordan, of course, is the only competitor whose name is a country. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:08 | |
Indeed, yeah. Thanks very much indeed. Now, Caroline, welcome. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
-Hello. -Here from Barry. -Yes. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:13 | |
And what do you do in Barry, Caroline? | 0:17:13 | 0:17:15 | |
Well, I do a couple of things. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:16 | |
I'm a carer with the terminally ill and the elderly | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
and the mentally ill, and in my spare time | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
I also teach music at my children's primary school. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
That's nice. What sort of music? | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
Just teaching music to a class or do you teach particular instruments? | 0:17:27 | 0:17:30 | |
I do instruments as well. I do violin and piano, | 0:17:30 | 0:17:32 | |
but I do kind of music workshops, | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
so we've just done a project on the instruments of the orchestra | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
and next we're looking at different genres, so it's a bit of a leap, | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
next week we're doing rap. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
Wow, into rap? What age are your pupils? | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
-Nine. -OK, fun. Excellent. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:46 | |
-Rap without swearing. -Yeah. -Good luck with that. | 0:17:46 | 0:17:50 | |
-Got to find some family-friendly ones. -Yeah, that's great! | 0:17:50 | 0:17:53 | |
Good stuff. Now, Caroline, you're on 7. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:55 | |
-You're 100 behind our high-scorers. -Thank goodness. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:58 | |
So 99 or less keeps you safe. | 0:17:58 | 0:17:59 | |
That's good because I only know one. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
Phew. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:03 | |
The only one that I know that's left | 0:18:03 | 0:18:05 | |
is Good Morning, Vietnam. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:07 | |
Vietnam, says Caroline. Here's your red line, nice and high, | 0:18:07 | 0:18:10 | |
get below that with Vietnam, you're into Round Two. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:12 | |
Well done. Through you go. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:17 | |
78. It's high, but who cares? | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:18:19 | 0:18:21 | |
85 is your total. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:23 | |
Yeah, well done, Caroline, | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
Conrad doing a lot of the work for you there, so lovely, | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
straight through. It is a tough board, this one, isn't it? | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
Much tougher than the previous board, I think. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
Let's go through the rest of these now. It's The Boys From... | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
-Brazil. -Brazil, that's a big scorer. Would have scored you 56. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
Do you know Cold? | 0:18:38 | 0:18:39 | |
It's interesting, just a common expression, which is cold | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
-and then the name of the country. -No, it's going to annoy me, this. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:45 | |
I can't think what that is. Cold... | 0:18:45 | 0:18:47 | |
-Turkey. -Oh, of course! | 0:18:47 | 0:18:50 | |
Obvious when you hear it. 16 points for that. Now, this other one. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
There's all sorts of countries where the country is named after a river. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
This is one of these, an awful lot of them in Africa. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:59 | |
I thought this was River Congo. It's not. It's a James Earl Jones film. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:03 | |
It is The River Niger | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
and it's a pointless answer, so very well done if you said that. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:08 | |
Very good. Thank you, Richard, so at the end of our first round, | 0:19:08 | 0:19:11 | |
the pair who are heading home, they were our head-to-headers last time. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:14 | |
I can't bear this. Dave and Adele, we had high hopes. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:16 | |
Our only returning pair, in fact. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:18 | |
And I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to you at this point. Yes. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:22 | |
Anyway, it's been lovely having you on both shows. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:24 | |
Thanks so much for playing, Dave and Adele. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:27 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:19:27 | 0:19:28 | |
But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:34 | |
And so suddenly we're down to three pairs. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:41 | |
At the end of this round we will be down to two pairs. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:44 | |
Conrad and Steve, very well done, | 0:19:44 | 0:19:46 | |
our joint lowest individual scorers. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:49 | |
Steve and David, our lowest-scoring pair, and well done to all of you, | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
you've seen off our only returning pair, so, yeah, good going. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:55 | |
Best of luck to all three pairs. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:57 | |
Our category for Round Two this afternoon is... | 0:19:57 | 0:20:00 | |
Powerful People. Can you all decide in your pairs | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
who's going to go first, who's going to go second? | 0:20:03 | 0:20:06 | |
And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:09 | |
OK, and the question concerns... | 0:20:12 | 0:20:14 | |
Forbes' Most Powerful Women 2015. Richard. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:21 | |
We're going to show you a picture now of 15 women who appeared | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
on this list of the world's most powerful women. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:26 | |
We just need you to identify the most obscure of these 15, please. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
OK, so we're going to put an image up on the board | 0:20:29 | 0:20:31 | |
with 15 people on it. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:33 | |
That will stay up for the whole round. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:35 | |
We won't be changing it halfway through the round. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
You just have to name any of the people on this board, | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
and here is our image. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:41 | |
There we go. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:43 | |
OK, so, Conrad, we come to you. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:47 | |
Now, again, Conrad, and this is just the way it's fallen, | 0:20:47 | 0:20:50 | |
-another nice international round for you. -That's nice, isn't it? | 0:20:50 | 0:20:54 | |
It is nice. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:55 | |
There's a couple of faces that look familiar, | 0:20:55 | 0:20:59 | |
but this is a bit of a stab in the dark | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
and I'm going to go with Angela Merkel. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:04 | |
-Angela Merkel. -Angela Merkel. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:06 | |
OK, yes, let's see if that's right, | 0:21:06 | 0:21:08 | |
let's see how many of our 100 people said Angela Merkel. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
It's right. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:13 | |
Wow. 46. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:17 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:21:19 | 0:21:20 | |
46 for Angela Merkel. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:22 | |
Yeah, there she is in the bottom row, second in. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:26 | |
Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Jordan... | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
Jordan, who would you like to go for from this? | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
I don't really recognise a lot of the more obscure ones. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:37 | |
I'm going to go for the top left. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:39 | |
Sofia Vergara. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:40 | |
Sofia Vergara, says Jordan. Let's see if it's right. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
Let's see how many of our 100 people said that. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:46 | |
It's right. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:49 | |
Now, 46 our only score so far, you passed that comfortably. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:52 | |
Taking it down to 6, look at that, very well done indeed! | 0:21:54 | 0:21:57 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:21:57 | 0:21:59 | |
-Sofia Vergara. -Yeah, absolutely, star of Modern Family, of course. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:04 | |
Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, David. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
Oh... | 0:22:07 | 0:22:09 | |
Deep sigh time. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:11 | |
I think...bottom row, third in, | 0:22:11 | 0:22:15 | |
-is Ellen DeGeneres. -Ellen DeGeneres. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
We've had Angela Merkel and now Ellen DeGeneres. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:20 | |
Let's see if that's right, | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
Ellen "DeJeneres" or "De-Generes" if you like. How many people said it? | 0:22:22 | 0:22:26 | |
It's right. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:31 | |
Well, you pass 46. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:32 | |
Just. 43 for Ellen DeGeneres. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
Yeah, US talk show host, | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
also of course the most retweeted photograph ever, her Oscar selfie. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:43 | |
Of course, yes. There we are, thank you very much. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those cores. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
Jordan, well done indeed. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:50 | |
Look at that, 6. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:52 | |
Jordan and Elena looking very strong at that point. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
Then 43 is where we find David and Steve, | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
then 46, just a tiny bit ahead, we find Conrad | 0:22:57 | 0:23:00 | |
and Caroline, so, yes, Caroline, we need a low score from you. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:02 | |
I'm afraid that board isn't going to change, | 0:23:02 | 0:23:05 | |
-so I hope you've got a really good answer from the board. -It's OK. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:08 | |
Good. Best of luck with that. We'll come back down the line now. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:10 | |
Can the second pairs please step up to the podium? | 0:23:10 | 0:23:13 | |
OK, now, Steve... | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
-Hello and goodbye. -Hmm... | 0:23:18 | 0:23:20 | |
-We're sunk. -Oh, really? | 0:23:20 | 0:23:22 | |
We have a strict division of labour in this team. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
He can't do anagrams and I can't recognise famous people. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:29 | |
-Ah. -I do know one. It's going to score a lot. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:31 | |
It's Hillary Clinton. | 0:23:31 | 0:23:33 | |
Hillary Clinton. OK, Hillary Clinton, says Steve. | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
You do get a red line. Should you score 2 or less | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
-with this, you'll definitely be in the head-to-head. -Thank you! | 0:23:38 | 0:23:41 | |
but actually, you might be doing something tactically very clever | 0:23:41 | 0:23:44 | |
by taking Hillary Clinton off the board, | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
so let's see how many of our 100 people said Hillary Clinton. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:50 | |
47. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:57 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:23:57 | 0:23:58 | |
47 for Hillary Clinton, | 0:23:58 | 0:24:00 | |
takes you up to 90. Nice round score. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:02 | |
Yes, scored one point more than Angela Merkel, Hillary Clinton, | 0:24:02 | 0:24:05 | |
although actually, in the poll, | 0:24:05 | 0:24:07 | |
Hillary Clinton was the second most powerful woman in the world | 0:24:07 | 0:24:10 | |
-and Angela Merkel the most powerful woman in the world. -Wow. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:13 | |
-Right, Elena. -Hello. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:15 | |
Elena, what would you like to go for? | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
By the way, you're on 6. If you can score 83 or less... | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
-83? -83 or less. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
SHE WHIMPERS | 0:24:21 | 0:24:22 | |
-83 or less is meant to be good! -I know three. -OK. Good. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:26 | |
Thanks! Erm... | 0:24:26 | 0:24:28 | |
I'm going to have to go for... | 0:24:28 | 0:24:30 | |
Taylor Swift. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:32 | |
Taylor Swift. Here's your red line. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:34 | |
Get below that red line with Taylor Swift | 0:24:34 | 0:24:36 | |
and you're into the head-to-head. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:38 | |
Let's see how many of our 100 said Taylor Swift. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:41 | |
It's right and you're through, well done. Perfect. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:47 | |
Down it goes. 39! | 0:24:47 | 0:24:49 | |
45 is your total. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:51 | |
The lowest total of the round, | 0:24:51 | 0:24:52 | |
I can reveal. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:54 | |
The 64th most powerful woman in the world - Elena. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
-No, Taylor Swift! -Oh. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:00 | |
-64th. -Thank you very much. Now, Caroline. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:03 | |
-Hello. -Caroline. -Yes. -Hello to you. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:05 | |
-Now, you want to be scoring 43 or less. -OK. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
I see who I think is Shakira but I'm not 100% that's her, | 0:25:07 | 0:25:11 | |
so I'm not going to attempt it, | 0:25:11 | 0:25:13 | |
so I'm going to go for someone | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
that I see quite often in the celebrity magazines I devour, | 0:25:15 | 0:25:19 | |
and she's normally pictured with Victoria Beckham, | 0:25:19 | 0:25:21 | |
so I'm going to say Anna Wintour. | 0:25:21 | 0:25:23 | |
Anna Wintour, says Caroline. Anna Wintour. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:25 | |
Here comes your red line - get below that | 0:25:25 | 0:25:28 | |
with Anna Wintour, through you go to the head-to-head. | 0:25:28 | 0:25:30 | |
How many people said Anna Wintour? | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
Very well done. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
That's a great answer, 13. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:42 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:25:42 | 0:25:44 | |
13, our second lowest score of the round. Very well done. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:47 | |
59 is your total. | 0:25:47 | 0:25:48 | |
Yeah, there she is, the first one of the middle row there, | 0:25:48 | 0:25:51 | |
editor of Vogue, of course, Anna Wintour. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:53 | |
Now, let's go through all of them from the top. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:55 | |
There's two pointless answers here but we'll go through them in order, | 0:25:55 | 0:25:59 | |
so next to Sofia Vergara there is Michelle Obama, | 0:25:59 | 0:26:02 | |
which would have scored you 49. | 0:26:02 | 0:26:04 | |
Next to her is the president of South Korea, Park Geun-hye. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:07 | |
Would have scored 1 point, so very well done if you said that. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:10 | |
And next to that is our first pointless answer. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:12 | |
She's the deputy governor of the Bank of England. It's Nemat Shafik. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:16 | |
Very well done if you said that, Dame Nemat Shafik, I think. | 0:26:16 | 0:26:18 | |
A pointless answer if you said that. | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
That is Shakira in the top right there, | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
but she would have scored you 15. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:24 | |
Now, on that second row, next to Anna Wintour is Angelina Jolie, | 0:26:24 | 0:26:27 | |
would have scored you 30. | 0:26:27 | 0:26:29 | |
And next to Hillary Clinton is the Polish prime minister, Ewa Kopacz. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:33 | |
She would have scored you 2 points. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:35 | |
On the bottom row, Oprah Winfrey, she's our biggest scorer, actually, | 0:26:35 | 0:26:38 | |
she would have scored you 58. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
And then the last two - | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
Melinda Gates, 2 points for Melinda Gates, | 0:26:42 | 0:26:45 | |
and another pointless answer, bottom right. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:48 | |
She's the editor of the Guardian and it's Kath Viner. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:51 | |
Again, very, very well done if you said that. | 0:26:51 | 0:26:53 | |
Thank you very much indeed, Richard. So at the end of our second round, | 0:26:53 | 0:26:56 | |
the pair we're sending home with their high score of 90, | 0:26:56 | 0:27:00 | |
Steve and David. Nothing wrong with | 0:27:00 | 0:27:02 | |
either of your answers there, Hillary Clinton and Ellen DeGeneres, | 0:27:02 | 0:27:06 | |
they just scored a lot, through no fault of yours. | 0:27:06 | 0:27:09 | |
No fault of yours. But it means we'll see you again next time | 0:27:09 | 0:27:12 | |
and we look forward to that very much, but meantime, | 0:27:12 | 0:27:14 | |
thanks very much indeed, Steve and David. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:27:16 | 0:27:18 | |
But for Elena and Jordan, Caroline and Conrad, | 0:27:19 | 0:27:22 | |
it's now time for our head-to-head. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:24 | |
Very well done, Elena, Jordan, Caroline and Conrad, | 0:27:28 | 0:27:32 | |
you are now one step closer to the final and a chance | 0:27:32 | 0:27:34 | |
to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at £1,000. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:37 | |
Well, this is the point where you start playing as teams. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:40 | |
We put you head-to-head. | 0:27:40 | 0:27:41 | |
First pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:45 | |
Well, we've had moments of brilliance. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:46 | |
We've had really good answers from each team, in fact. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:49 | |
So, yes, I think you are very, very well matched. | 0:27:49 | 0:27:51 | |
It should be very, very tight, this. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:52 | |
Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head. | 0:27:52 | 0:27:55 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:27:55 | 0:27:56 | |
OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns... | 0:28:01 | 0:28:04 | |
-Cheers, Richard. -Cheers. -Cheers. | 0:28:07 | 0:28:09 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:28:09 | 0:28:10 | |
We're going to show you five clues now to facts about the American sitcom Cheers. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:14 | |
Can you give us the most obscure answer, please? | 0:28:14 | 0:28:16 | |
OK, let's reveal our five clues, and here they come. | 0:28:16 | 0:28:19 | |
We've got... | 0:28:19 | 0:28:20 | |
I'll read those all one last time. | 0:28:35 | 0:28:37 | |
There we are. Now then, | 0:28:52 | 0:28:53 | |
Elena and Jordan, you are our low-scorers, so you go first. | 0:28:53 | 0:28:56 | |
THEY WHISPER | 0:28:56 | 0:28:59 | |
No? OK. | 0:29:05 | 0:29:06 | |
OK, we only know two, | 0:29:06 | 0:29:07 | |
so we'll go for the last one, | 0:29:07 | 0:29:09 | |
-which is Boston. -Boston, say Elena and Jordan, Boston. | 0:29:09 | 0:29:12 | |
Now then, Caroline and Conrad, talk us through that board, if you can. | 0:29:12 | 0:29:16 | |
The only thing we think | 0:29:16 | 0:29:18 | |
might be correct, which probably isn't, | 0:29:18 | 0:29:21 | |
we only know one show ever | 0:29:21 | 0:29:23 | |
that starred Kelsey Grammer, | 0:29:23 | 0:29:25 | |
and that's Frasier, | 0:29:25 | 0:29:26 | |
-so we're going to have to say that. -You're going to go for Frasier. | 0:29:26 | 0:29:29 | |
So we have Boston, we have Frasier. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:30 | |
Now, Elena and Jordan said Boston, the city in which it's set. | 0:29:30 | 0:29:34 | |
Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it. | 0:29:34 | 0:29:36 | |
It's right. | 0:29:38 | 0:29:39 | |
48. | 0:29:42 | 0:29:44 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:29:44 | 0:29:45 | |
48 for Boston. | 0:29:45 | 0:29:47 | |
Meanwhile, Caroline and Conrad have said Frasier for the spin-off show. | 0:29:47 | 0:29:51 | |
Let's see if that's right. | 0:29:51 | 0:29:52 | |
It is absolutely right, Frasier. | 0:29:54 | 0:29:56 | |
Oh, it's going to be clo... | 0:29:56 | 0:29:58 | |
50 for Frasier! | 0:29:58 | 0:29:59 | |
It nearly won it for you. | 0:29:59 | 0:30:01 | |
But no, after one question, Elena and Jordan, you are up 1-0. | 0:30:02 | 0:30:06 | |
That was close, wasn't it? | 0:30:06 | 0:30:08 | |
It's got one of the best theme tunes ever, hasn't it, Cheers? | 0:30:08 | 0:30:11 | |
-I think it has. -What a lovely song it is. | 0:30:11 | 0:30:12 | |
Now, let's take a look at the rest of these. | 0:30:12 | 0:30:14 | |
The George Wendt character is... | 0:30:14 | 0:30:16 | |
-Norm. -Norm, absolutely, Norm Peterson, to give him his full name. | 0:30:16 | 0:30:19 | |
Would have scored you 18. | 0:30:19 | 0:30:20 | |
It was Sam... | 0:30:20 | 0:30:22 | |
-Malone. -Sam Malone. | 0:30:22 | 0:30:23 | |
That would have scored you 22. | 0:30:23 | 0:30:25 | |
Now, this would be more of a guess, | 0:30:25 | 0:30:27 | |
the year the show was first broadcast. | 0:30:27 | 0:30:30 | |
1984? | 0:30:30 | 0:30:32 | |
-1982 in the States. -'82. -Yeah. Best answer on the board, 8 points. | 0:30:32 | 0:30:36 | |
Thank you very much indeed, Richard. OK, here comes your second question. | 0:30:36 | 0:30:39 | |
Caroline and Conrad, you get to answer it first | 0:30:39 | 0:30:42 | |
but you have to win it to stay in the game, so best of luck. | 0:30:42 | 0:30:44 | |
It concerns... | 0:30:44 | 0:30:45 | |
Bones in the human body. Richard. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:49 | |
We're going to show you the names of five bones, typically | 0:30:49 | 0:30:52 | |
found in the human body, but we've missed out alternate letters. | 0:30:52 | 0:30:55 | |
Can you fill in those gaps, please? | 0:30:55 | 0:30:57 | |
OK, so let's reveal our five broken bones, and here they are. | 0:30:57 | 0:31:01 | |
We've got... | 0:31:01 | 0:31:02 | |
I'll read those all one last time. | 0:31:10 | 0:31:11 | |
Now, Caroline and Conrad, you will go first. | 0:31:18 | 0:31:20 | |
THEY WHISPER | 0:31:20 | 0:31:22 | |
(The only one I know is the bottom one. That's it.) | 0:31:25 | 0:31:29 | |
OK. There's only one on there | 0:31:29 | 0:31:31 | |
that we know, and that's the bottom one, | 0:31:31 | 0:31:34 | |
which we think is femur. | 0:31:34 | 0:31:36 | |
Femur, say Caroline and Conrad, femur. | 0:31:36 | 0:31:39 | |
Now then, Elena and Jordan, do you fancy | 0:31:39 | 0:31:41 | |
talking us through those bones? | 0:31:41 | 0:31:43 | |
-Um... We don't know the... -Do we know the first one? | 0:31:43 | 0:31:45 | |
-No. -We don't know the first or third one. | 0:31:45 | 0:31:47 | |
The second one, I think, is ulna. | 0:31:47 | 0:31:49 | |
I think the fourth one is sacrum. | 0:31:49 | 0:31:51 | |
Think we should go for that? | 0:31:51 | 0:31:52 | |
-Yeah. -Yeah, we'll go for the fourth one down. | 0:31:52 | 0:31:54 | |
Sacrum, so we have femur and we have sacrum. | 0:31:54 | 0:31:57 | |
Now, Caroline and Conrad said femur. | 0:31:57 | 0:31:59 | |
Let's see how many of our 100 people said femur. | 0:31:59 | 0:32:02 | |
It's right. | 0:32:03 | 0:32:05 | |
Oh! Look at that, 91. | 0:32:05 | 0:32:07 | |
91 for femur. | 0:32:07 | 0:32:08 | |
Now, Elena and Jordan have gone for sacrum. | 0:32:08 | 0:32:12 | |
Let's see if that's right. One up from the bottom. | 0:32:12 | 0:32:14 | |
How many people said sacrum? | 0:32:14 | 0:32:16 | |
It's right, and it wins you the point. | 0:32:18 | 0:32:20 | |
Good answer. | 0:32:24 | 0:32:25 | |
Look at that, 15 for sacrum. | 0:32:25 | 0:32:27 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:32:27 | 0:32:28 | |
Well done, Elena and Jordan. | 0:32:28 | 0:32:30 | |
After only two questions, you are straight through to the final 2-0. | 0:32:30 | 0:32:33 | |
Very, very well played, yeah, the sacrum is a triangular bone | 0:32:33 | 0:32:36 | |
at the base of the back. I think that might be where your problem is. | 0:32:36 | 0:32:39 | |
My sacrum? It could well be. | 0:32:39 | 0:32:40 | |
-Maybe your sacroiliac joint is where the issue is. -Oh, right? | 0:32:40 | 0:32:44 | |
That would be my opinion. I'm not a real doctor, but... | 0:32:44 | 0:32:48 | |
-I mean, sure, I practise, but I'm not a real doctor. -Yeah! | 0:32:48 | 0:32:53 | |
Let's take a look at the rest of these. You were right about ulna. | 0:32:53 | 0:32:56 | |
It's a big scorer, not as big as femur | 0:32:56 | 0:32:58 | |
but it would have scored you 61. | 0:32:58 | 0:33:01 | |
The top one, do you know the top one? | 0:33:01 | 0:33:03 | |
-Mandible. -Mandible, yeah, the jawbone. | 0:33:03 | 0:33:05 | |
That would have scored you 28. | 0:33:05 | 0:33:06 | |
Now, do you know this next one down? | 0:33:06 | 0:33:08 | |
It's your heel bone. | 0:33:08 | 0:33:10 | |
It's your calcaneus. | 0:33:10 | 0:33:13 | |
Calcaneus, and that would have scored 1 point, | 0:33:13 | 0:33:15 | |
so very well done if you said that. | 0:33:15 | 0:33:17 | |
-Thank you very much indeed. -You've got two of them. | 0:33:17 | 0:33:19 | |
Calcaneus, I'd better learn about them, calcaneus. | 0:33:19 | 0:33:22 | |
-Haven't you just? -My heel bone. | 0:33:22 | 0:33:23 | |
-Yep, connected to my foot bone, I seem to remember. -Is it? -Yeah. | 0:33:23 | 0:33:27 | |
-That's interesting. -Obviously, I am qualified. Yeah. | 0:33:27 | 0:33:29 | |
Any other information? What is it, your foot bone...? | 0:33:29 | 0:33:31 | |
Foot bone, well, that's connected to your toe bone. | 0:33:31 | 0:33:34 | |
-Toe bone, and your toe bone? -That's pretty much... | 0:33:34 | 0:33:36 | |
-Connected to the backside of next-door's cats. -There you go! | 0:33:36 | 0:33:39 | |
Thank you very much indeed. | 0:33:39 | 0:33:40 | |
So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round, | 0:33:40 | 0:33:43 | |
I'm so sorry, Caroline and Conrad, | 0:33:43 | 0:33:45 | |
it's been a wonderful progress | 0:33:45 | 0:33:47 | |
through the show so far for you, but then you came up, I'm afraid, | 0:33:47 | 0:33:50 | |
against the immovable object of Elena and Jordan. | 0:33:50 | 0:33:53 | |
So we say goodbye to you, but it's great news for us | 0:33:53 | 0:33:55 | |
cos it means we get to see you again next time. | 0:33:55 | 0:33:57 | |
Look forward to that very much, | 0:33:57 | 0:33:59 | |
but, Caroline and Conrad, meantime, thanks very much. | 0:33:59 | 0:34:02 | |
-ELENA: -Well done. | 0:34:02 | 0:34:03 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:34:03 | 0:34:06 | |
But for Elena and Jordan, it is time for our Pointless final. | 0:34:06 | 0:34:09 | |
Well, what about that? | 0:34:12 | 0:34:13 | |
Elena and Jordan, you have seen off all the other competitors | 0:34:13 | 0:34:16 | |
and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy. | 0:34:16 | 0:34:19 | |
There you are. | 0:34:25 | 0:34:26 | |
You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot. | 0:34:26 | 0:34:28 | |
At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,000. | 0:34:28 | 0:34:32 | |
Well, I think you've been our low-scorers throughout the show. | 0:34:32 | 0:34:36 | |
Very, very impressive scoring anyhow, | 0:34:36 | 0:34:38 | |
and no arguing with 2-0 in the head-to-head, | 0:34:38 | 0:34:41 | |
that's always a very impressive last stand before the final. | 0:34:41 | 0:34:45 | |
What would you like to see come up? | 0:34:45 | 0:34:47 | |
-Again, anything movies, although we've had it already. -Playwrights, | 0:34:47 | 0:34:50 | |
-we'd probably be quite good at. -Yeah. I'm quite good on some sport. | 0:34:50 | 0:34:53 | |
-Some sport? Expand on this. -Some selected sports. | 0:34:53 | 0:34:56 | |
-Mainly football, but I know a little bit about a few others. -OK. | 0:34:56 | 0:35:00 | |
-OK, Elena, any strange...? -Shakespeare. -Very good. | 0:35:00 | 0:35:04 | |
-Nothing strange about that. -Nerd knowledge. -That would be very handy. | 0:35:04 | 0:35:07 | |
-Let's hope there's something on the board you like the look of. -OK. | 0:35:07 | 0:35:11 | |
Today's selection looks like this. We've got... | 0:35:11 | 0:35:13 | |
Sport in 1996, Opera, | 0:35:13 | 0:35:16 | |
Numerical Pop Groups, my favourite kind, | 0:35:16 | 0:35:20 | |
and Venus. | 0:35:20 | 0:35:21 | |
Not the first one... | 0:35:23 | 0:35:25 | |
-Yeah. It might be the Euros, but... -Not the second one. | 0:35:25 | 0:35:28 | |
-It's got to be Numerical Pop Groups. -Yeah, it has to be. -Numerical... | 0:35:28 | 0:35:31 | |
What's Venus? | 0:35:31 | 0:35:32 | |
It could be anything. | 0:35:32 | 0:35:34 | |
-Like the planet? -I don't know! | 0:35:34 | 0:35:36 | |
-Numerical Pop Groups? -Yeah, we'll go the third one down, please. | 0:35:36 | 0:35:39 | |
You're going to go Numerical Pop Groups. Richard. | 0:35:39 | 0:35:41 | |
OK, good luck. This will be a perfect one, some people at home, | 0:35:41 | 0:35:44 | |
this is the sort of question they absolutely love. | 0:35:44 | 0:35:46 | |
We're going to give you three different questions here. | 0:35:46 | 0:35:48 | |
We are looking for any UK Top 40 single prior to June 2015 | 0:35:48 | 0:35:53 | |
released by 911, | 0:35:53 | 0:35:55 | |
by Five, or by S Club 7. | 0:35:55 | 0:36:00 | |
-OK. -So any UK Top 40 single by 911, Five or S Club 7, | 0:36:00 | 0:36:04 | |
or when they became S Club as well, not S Club Juniors. | 0:36:04 | 0:36:06 | |
Very, very best of luck. | 0:36:06 | 0:36:09 | |
Thank you very much indeed, Richard. | 0:36:09 | 0:36:10 | |
OK, now, as always, you've got up to one minute | 0:36:10 | 0:36:12 | |
to come up with three answers to win that jackpot. | 0:36:12 | 0:36:15 | |
All you need is for one of those answers to be pointless. | 0:36:15 | 0:36:17 | |
-Are you ready? -Yes. | 0:36:17 | 0:36:19 | |
OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. | 0:36:19 | 0:36:21 | |
There they are. Your time starts now. | 0:36:21 | 0:36:24 | |
-OK. -I can't think of any 911. | 0:36:24 | 0:36:25 | |
There was one '90s album I had with one 911. | 0:36:25 | 0:36:28 | |
-No, I can't remember it, so don't get excited. -OK. S Club 7? | 0:36:28 | 0:36:32 | |
-I only know the most popular ones. -Wait, let's just calm down. -OK! | 0:36:32 | 0:36:36 | |
Let's just think about it. It's a long time. | 0:36:36 | 0:36:38 | |
S Club 7, so not Reach For The Stars, not... | 0:36:39 | 0:36:42 | |
What's that, "Stop right now..."? Oh, that's the Spice Girls. | 0:36:43 | 0:36:46 | |
-Yeah, the Spice Girls. -Not that. | 0:36:46 | 0:36:48 | |
Five... What's that, "Five will make you get down..." What's that? | 0:36:48 | 0:36:51 | |
That's too popular. | 0:36:51 | 0:36:52 | |
-I don't even know what it's called. -"Five will make you get down"? | 0:36:52 | 0:36:55 | |
-That's part of the song, I think. -Um... -911? | 0:36:55 | 0:36:59 | |
What was the name of your CD? | 0:36:59 | 0:37:00 | |
I can't remember. I'm not going to think of it. S Club 7, | 0:37:00 | 0:37:03 | |
let's think about that. | 0:37:03 | 0:37:05 | |
Rise... | 0:37:07 | 0:37:09 | |
Or is that Spice Girls, Rise? | 0:37:09 | 0:37:11 | |
Possibly. Sounds plausible. | 0:37:11 | 0:37:13 | |
-Ten seconds left. -What's Five? | 0:37:13 | 0:37:14 | |
So Reach For The Stars, Rise... Anything else? | 0:37:14 | 0:37:17 | |
-Any other S Club 7? -Five, no, just think of Five. | 0:37:17 | 0:37:19 | |
Time's coming up. | 0:37:19 | 0:37:21 | |
Five, isn't there one called Five? | 0:37:21 | 0:37:23 | |
OK, that's your time up, I'm sorry to say. | 0:37:23 | 0:37:26 | |
-Good management there, Elena. -You know when you just get... | 0:37:26 | 0:37:30 | |
You get a bit flustered and then you forget the ones you know | 0:37:30 | 0:37:32 | |
-and you have to take a minute. -Calm under pressure is what you need. | 0:37:32 | 0:37:35 | |
Now, what are the three answers going to be? | 0:37:35 | 0:37:37 | |
-We've got Reach For The Stars... -Yes. -Reach For The Stars by... | 0:37:37 | 0:37:40 | |
-S Club 7. -S Club 7. | 0:37:40 | 0:37:41 | |
-Rise, which we think... -Rise, I think, is S Club 7, | 0:37:41 | 0:37:43 | |
and I think there's a Five single called Five. | 0:37:43 | 0:37:46 | |
-And Five? -Yeah. -Five, by Five? | 0:37:46 | 0:37:49 | |
-Yeah. -OK, now, | 0:37:49 | 0:37:50 | |
of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer? | 0:37:50 | 0:37:53 | |
-Rise, if it's right. -Rise, if it's right. -Rise goes last, then. | 0:37:53 | 0:37:56 | |
-And Reach For The Stars at the top. -Reach For The Stars, least likely. | 0:37:56 | 0:37:59 | |
OK, let's pop those answers up on the board in that order, | 0:37:59 | 0:38:01 | |
and here they are. We've got... | 0:38:01 | 0:38:03 | |
Reach For The Stars, Five and Rise. | 0:38:03 | 0:38:06 | |
Best of luck. Now, one of those answers might turn out to be pointless. | 0:38:06 | 0:38:10 | |
-It just might. -I hope so. | 0:38:10 | 0:38:11 | |
If that were to happen and you were to win £1,000, | 0:38:11 | 0:38:14 | |
what would you do with it, Elena? | 0:38:14 | 0:38:16 | |
I would probably put it towards putting on another play. | 0:38:16 | 0:38:19 | |
-Very good. -They're expensive. -Yes, very good. OK, Jordan? | 0:38:19 | 0:38:23 | |
Well, I got married last year | 0:38:23 | 0:38:25 | |
and we're just about to move house next month, | 0:38:25 | 0:38:27 | |
so that would help with a lot of furniture and decorating and stuff. | 0:38:27 | 0:38:31 | |
Perfect. Congratulations and good luck, in quick succession. | 0:38:31 | 0:38:35 | |
Now, in the first instance, we were looking for songs by S Club 7. | 0:38:35 | 0:38:39 | |
You have gone for Reach For The Stars, | 0:38:39 | 0:38:41 | |
-your least confident shot at pointless. -Yeah. | 0:38:41 | 0:38:43 | |
But if it is pointless, it will win you £1,000. | 0:38:43 | 0:38:45 | |
Let's see how many people said Reach For The Stars. | 0:38:45 | 0:38:48 | |
Oh. | 0:38:51 | 0:38:52 | |
Unfortunately an incorrect answer, | 0:38:52 | 0:38:54 | |
which means not a pointless answer, which means you only have | 0:38:54 | 0:38:56 | |
two more shots at today's jackpot. | 0:38:56 | 0:38:58 | |
We move on to your next answer, which was Five, which you think | 0:38:58 | 0:39:02 | |
-might be a hit single... -I've got this horrible feeling... | 0:39:02 | 0:39:05 | |
..by the band Five. | 0:39:05 | 0:39:06 | |
-..that it might be Five by Five! -OK, Five by Five. | 0:39:06 | 0:39:09 | |
It has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot, so for £1,000, | 0:39:09 | 0:39:13 | |
let's see how many people said Five. | 0:39:13 | 0:39:15 | |
-Oh, bad luck. -The next one's wrong as well, I think. -Really? -Yeah. | 0:39:17 | 0:39:20 | |
Bad luck. An incorrect answer, which means your next one, | 0:39:20 | 0:39:23 | |
you already think the next one's wrong. | 0:39:23 | 0:39:25 | |
Yeah, because I think I'm thinking of Gabrielle, Rise, | 0:39:25 | 0:39:27 | |
-not S Club 7, Rise. -Oh, dear. | 0:39:27 | 0:39:29 | |
OK. These sound like addresses. | 0:39:29 | 0:39:32 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:39:32 | 0:39:34 | |
"5 Gabrielle Rise." | 0:39:34 | 0:39:36 | |
You're going for Rise. OK, we're hoping it's a single by S Club 7. | 0:39:36 | 0:39:40 | |
Let's just find out, shall we? | 0:39:40 | 0:39:42 | |
If it's right and if it's pointless, it will win you £1,000. Rise. | 0:39:42 | 0:39:45 | |
Oh! Well... | 0:39:48 | 0:39:49 | |
There's the hat-trick... | 0:39:49 | 0:39:51 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:39:51 | 0:39:53 | |
-..I'm afraid. -I got two wrong, so... -You did, yeah. | 0:39:53 | 0:39:56 | |
I'm afraid, do you know what, | 0:39:56 | 0:39:58 | |
I was sort of imagining that this was really, this was going to | 0:39:58 | 0:40:01 | |
be brilliant for you, I'm not quite sure why, but it wasn't, I'm afraid. | 0:40:01 | 0:40:04 | |
-Just not the right bands. -Not the right bands. | 0:40:04 | 0:40:07 | |
Out of all the numerical bands... | 0:40:07 | 0:40:09 | |
-Yeah. -I know, Heaven 17, Level 42, where were they? | 0:40:09 | 0:40:12 | |
-911! -Yeah, maybe not our best category. | 0:40:12 | 0:40:15 | |
OK, well, I'm afraid you didn't manage to find a correct answer, | 0:40:15 | 0:40:18 | |
in fact, let alone a pointless answer, | 0:40:18 | 0:40:20 | |
so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £1,000. | 0:40:20 | 0:40:22 | |
Mind you, we have been handing it out willy-nilly for the last few shows, | 0:40:22 | 0:40:25 | |
so frankly it's quite nice for us to hold on to it for a little longer. | 0:40:25 | 0:40:28 | |
It means Richard and I can go and have a drink on the interest. Um... | 0:40:28 | 0:40:31 | |
But we have loved having you on the show, | 0:40:31 | 0:40:33 | |
-an amazing performance right across, very, very good. -Thank you. | 0:40:33 | 0:40:36 | |
Really astute answering. You've shown yourselves to be very clever, | 0:40:36 | 0:40:39 | |
which is marvellous, and you get to take home a Pointless trophy each, | 0:40:39 | 0:40:42 | |
so very, very well done indeed. Elena and Jordan, well done. | 0:40:42 | 0:40:45 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:40:45 | 0:40:46 | |
Unlucky. You know what, though? | 0:40:49 | 0:40:51 | |
If you're going to get three incorrect answers in a category, | 0:40:51 | 0:40:53 | |
-better this than Shakespeare or chemistry or something. -Absolutely. | 0:40:53 | 0:40:56 | |
At least you can say, "I didn't know any 911 singles." | 0:40:56 | 0:40:59 | |
That's not the worst shame in the world. | 0:40:59 | 0:41:01 | |
Let's go through the pointless answers in the different categories. | 0:41:01 | 0:41:04 | |
Lots of people always say, "I want '80s pop, '90s pop, noughties pop," | 0:41:04 | 0:41:07 | |
so some people will love this. | 0:41:07 | 0:41:08 | |
If you're a fan of any of these bands, there will be pointless answers here that you got. | 0:41:08 | 0:41:12 | |
We'll start with 911. | 0:41:12 | 0:41:13 | |
A Little Bit More. Now, years ago, many years ago, | 0:41:15 | 0:41:18 | |
I wrote a sitcom called Boyz Unlimited, that James Corden was in, | 0:41:18 | 0:41:21 | |
and we were thinking, "What's the cheesiest song we could ever record? | 0:41:21 | 0:41:24 | |
"What's the worst song a boy band could ever do?" | 0:41:24 | 0:41:26 | |
And we stumbled across A Little Bit More, which is the old Dr Hook song | 0:41:26 | 0:41:29 | |
and we thought, "We'll do that, cos that could never happen in real life." We recorded it. | 0:41:29 | 0:41:33 | |
A month later, 911 brought it out and had a number one single with it, | 0:41:33 | 0:41:36 | |
so there you go, that just goes to show. | 0:41:36 | 0:41:38 | |
More Than A Woman, which was a cover of the Bee Gees song. | 0:41:38 | 0:41:40 | |
Party People...Friday Night, all three of those were top ten singles, | 0:41:40 | 0:41:44 | |
and Wonderland, which was their last UK top 40 single, | 0:41:44 | 0:41:47 | |
also could have had Don't Make Me Wait, | 0:41:47 | 0:41:49 | |
How Do You Want Me To Love You | 0:41:49 | 0:41:50 | |
and The Journey, all of those were pointless answers. | 0:41:50 | 0:41:52 | |
Let's take a look at Five. | 0:41:52 | 0:41:54 | |
These are all top ten singles as well. | 0:41:55 | 0:41:57 | |
Don't Wanna Let You Go, Got The Feelin' was a pointless answer, | 0:41:57 | 0:41:59 | |
I know lots of people at home will have got that, | 0:41:59 | 0:42:01 | |
and Until The Time Is Through, also a pointless answer. | 0:42:01 | 0:42:04 | |
Now, our old friends S Club, S Club 7, | 0:42:04 | 0:42:07 | |
let's take a look at the pointless, only four pointless answers here. | 0:42:07 | 0:42:10 | |
-ELENA GASPS -Love Ain't Gonna Wait For You | 0:42:10 | 0:42:12 | |
was a pointless answer, Two In A Million is a pointless answer. | 0:42:12 | 0:42:15 | |
-Look at the shock on Elena's face. -Two In A Million! -I know, right? | 0:42:15 | 0:42:18 | |
That song's on Now 38, I think. | 0:42:18 | 0:42:19 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:42:19 | 0:42:21 | |
That is very specific knowledge. | 0:42:21 | 0:42:23 | |
A lot of numericals flying around. | 0:42:23 | 0:42:25 | |
Yeah, there really are. | 0:42:25 | 0:42:26 | |
You, and You're My Number One. Some big scorers there. | 0:42:26 | 0:42:29 | |
We couldn't have Reach For The Stars as it's just called Reach. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:31 | |
-Oh, is it? -Because it's famously called Reach... -Was it about 100? | 0:42:31 | 0:42:34 | |
-No, 13. -What?! | 0:42:34 | 0:42:36 | |
-I suspect a lot of other people said Reach For The Stars... -Oh, OK. | 0:42:36 | 0:42:39 | |
..which we wouldn't have accepted. S Club Party would have scored 11. | 0:42:39 | 0:42:42 | |
They famously, of course, said | 0:42:42 | 0:42:43 | |
that there ain't no party like an S Club party, | 0:42:43 | 0:42:45 | |
so thank you to S Club for filling us in on that. | 0:42:45 | 0:42:48 | |
Thank you very much indeed. Thanks, Richard. | 0:42:48 | 0:42:50 | |
Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you, Elena and Jordan, | 0:42:50 | 0:42:53 | |
but it's been fabulous having you on the show. Thank you for playing. Elena and Jordan. | 0:42:53 | 0:42:56 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:42:56 | 0:42:59 | |
Well, sadly, Elena and Jordan didn't win our jackpot today, | 0:42:59 | 0:43:02 | |
which means it rolls over onto the next show, | 0:43:02 | 0:43:04 | |
when we will be playing for £2,000. | 0:43:04 | 0:43:06 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:43:06 | 0:43:08 | |
Join us then, to see if someone can win it. Meanwhile, | 0:43:08 | 0:43:11 | |
-it's goodbye from Richard. -Goodbye. -And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye. | 0:43:11 | 0:43:14 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:43:14 | 0:43:16 |
