0:00:21 > 0:00:22Thank you very much, indeed.

0:00:22 > 0:00:24Hello, I am Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless.

0:00:24 > 0:00:27This is the show where all the questions have been

0:00:27 > 0:00:28put to 100 people before the show.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30All our contestants have to do

0:00:30 > 0:00:32is come up with the answers no-one else can think of.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35Let's meet today's players. APPLAUSE

0:00:37 > 0:00:41- Couple number one.- Hello, I'm David. This is my wife, Jacqueline.

0:00:41 > 0:00:43We're from Washington near Sunderland.

0:00:43 > 0:00:44- Couple number two.- I'm Jayme.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47- This is my mum, Sue, and we're from Essex.- Couple number three.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50Hello, I'm Julia. This is my best friend, Christine.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53I'm from Norfolk and Christine is from Kent.

0:00:53 > 0:00:54And finally, couple number four.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, I am Sanam and this is my father, Ravi,

0:00:57 > 0:00:58and we're from London.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01And these are today's contestants. APPLAUSE

0:01:01 > 0:01:03Thank you very much, all of you.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05A very warm welcome to each and every one.

0:01:05 > 0:01:06We'll find more out about you

0:01:06 > 0:01:08throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13The Maradona of misinformation, the Pele of pointlessness,

0:01:13 > 0:01:15the Jimmy Bullard of...

0:01:15 > 0:01:16just stuff.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18It's my Pointless friend. It's Richard.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20- Hiya. - APPLAUSE

0:01:20 > 0:01:23Hi, everybody. Hello.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25- Good afternoon to you. - Good afternoon to you.

0:01:25 > 0:01:29Now, we have given away the jackpot six times in a row.

0:01:29 > 0:01:30- Yeah.- Six times in a row.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32Seven is our record, so we could equal that record today.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34If we're going to give away seven in a row,

0:01:34 > 0:01:36it's going to be one of these pairs here.

0:01:36 > 0:01:37Two of them returning from last time.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Sanam and Ravi, who played very, very well last time.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Got through to the head-to-head, and Jayme and Sue.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44Welcome, Jayme and Sue, to the 200 Club.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46- Congratulations.- Welcome. - Lovely to have you as members.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48Round One. Round One.

0:01:48 > 0:01:50- A proper school subject. - Oh, that's good.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53One of those things we should know about, but probably don't.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55Thank you very much, indeed, Richard.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58Now, Paddy and Brendan, as you'll have gathered, won the jackpot

0:01:58 > 0:02:02last time, so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.

0:02:02 > 0:02:03There it is.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13I'm sure I don't need to say this, but I'm going to say it anyhow.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15The pair with the highest score at the end of each round

0:02:15 > 0:02:17will be eliminated.

0:02:17 > 0:02:18Best of luck, all four pairs.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Our first category this afternoon

0:02:20 > 0:02:23is Science. It's Science.

0:02:23 > 0:02:25Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:02:25 > 0:02:27who's going to go second?

0:02:27 > 0:02:30And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36OK, and the question concerns...

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Physics. Ooh, we're narrowing it down.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Physics. Richard.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42On each board we're going to show you seven definitions

0:02:42 > 0:02:45taken from OxfordDictionaries.com of terms used in physics.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47We're going to give you the first

0:02:47 > 0:02:49and last letters of each word, as well, which, hopefully, will help.

0:02:49 > 0:02:52You just need to give us the most obscure, please.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54There's going to be 14 terms in all to have a go at at home.

0:02:54 > 0:02:55Best of luck.

0:02:55 > 0:02:59OK, so, let's reveal our first seven clues to physics-related terms

0:02:59 > 0:03:01and here they are.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28There we are. I'll read those all one last time.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54Jacqueline, lovely to have you here. What do you do, Jacqueline?

0:03:54 > 0:03:56I'm a retired lady these days.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58What did you do before you retired?

0:03:58 > 0:04:00Most of my work was in finance.

0:04:00 > 0:04:02I worked in banks, industry

0:04:02 > 0:04:05and latter job was with a firm of solicitors.

0:04:05 > 0:04:09Right you are. And what do you fill your retirement with, Jacqueline?

0:04:09 > 0:04:12At home I like to do crosswords and...

0:04:12 > 0:04:14Now, what sort of crosswords do you do?

0:04:14 > 0:04:16- Are you a cryptic crossworder?- Yes.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19- Which cryptic crosswords do you like?- I do the Telegraph.

0:04:19 > 0:04:21I do the Take A Break quick...

0:04:21 > 0:04:23LAUGHTER

0:04:23 > 0:04:24It can be difficult.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26Always cross if he hasn't got it done by 10am.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28- Aren't you?- Furious.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30I've never actually completed a whole one.

0:04:30 > 0:04:31I tend to fill in letters.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33But that's all right, no-one's checking.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35- No-one's checking.- Yeah. - There we are.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38Fills a moment. Now, Jacqueline.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40What would you like to go for on our board of physics?

0:04:40 > 0:04:42I'll go for the fourth one down.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45- Torque.- Torque.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Oh, that's good. Torque.

0:04:47 > 0:04:48Let's see if it's right.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:04:52 > 0:04:53It's right.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Very good indeed. 19, Jacqueline.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03Great start to the round, great start to the show.

0:05:03 > 0:05:0419 for torque.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07Absolutely. You use it quite often in cars.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09The faster the torque in a car, the faster the wheels will spin,

0:05:09 > 0:05:11the faster the car can go.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13Thank you very much, indeed, Richard.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16Jayme, welcome back. Remind us what you do, Jayme.

0:05:16 > 0:05:20I'm a manager of a reporting team for a mobile phone company.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23- That's right. Now, last time, 200 Club.- Indeed.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27- It was our famous Roberts, wasn't it?- It was. I was one letter out.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30- Yeah, we had Robert Lundrum instead of Robert Ludlum.- Exactly.

0:05:30 > 0:05:31That's what it was.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Now, Jayme, what would you like to go for

0:05:33 > 0:05:36on this board of physics-related terms?

0:05:36 > 0:05:37I know the top three, that's it.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39Trying to decide which one.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43I think I'm going to go for...

0:05:43 > 0:05:44the third and say decibel.

0:05:44 > 0:05:49Decibel, says Jayme. Let's see how many of our 100 people said decibel.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57APPLAUSE

0:05:57 > 0:05:5962 for decibel.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01There's a cat called Merlin who holds the world

0:06:01 > 0:06:03record for the loudest purr.

0:06:03 > 0:06:0667 decibels, which is about the same decibel level

0:06:06 > 0:06:09as a domestic dishwasher.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11- But cuter.- Cuter.- Yeah.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13Thank you very much, indeed, Richard.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Christine, welcome.- Hello. - Lovely to have you here.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18- Where are you from, Christine? - East Peckham in Kent.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20East Peckham in Kent. What do you do, Christine?

0:06:20 > 0:06:23I'm a finance director for a small printing company that my husband

0:06:23 > 0:06:25- and I own.- Very good, indeed.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28And what are your interests outside the printing works?

0:06:28 > 0:06:32I've got a bit of an obsession about the city of Venice.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34I've visited there 32 times.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37I'm about to go on my 33rd visit quite soon.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Favourite place in Venice?

0:06:39 > 0:06:42There's a little bar near the Rialto Bridge called

0:06:42 > 0:06:45Ruga Rialto and they've got a cat there called Kiko,

0:06:45 > 0:06:48- and I take treats for him every time I visit there.- Ah.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51- Wow, and you've been 32 times?- Yes.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53- A lot of treats.- That's an old cat.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55- LAUGHTER - He's doing very well for himself!

0:06:55 > 0:06:56Yes!

0:06:56 > 0:06:59Now, Christine, what would you like to go for on our board?

0:06:59 > 0:07:00Nightmare subject.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03So I'm going to go for

0:07:03 > 0:07:06the fifth one down and say optics.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Optics, says Christine.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11Let's see how many of our 100 people said optics.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16It's right. 62 is our high score, 19 is our low.

0:07:16 > 0:07:17You passed the high.

0:07:17 > 0:07:1939 for optics. Not bad at all.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22APPLAUSE

0:07:22 > 0:07:23Not bad at all.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26- Optics. Of course, you also get them in pubs.- Yes.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28The most popular branch of physics.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31Thanks very much, indeed.

0:07:31 > 0:07:36There we are. Now, Ravi, welcome back. Remind us what you do, Ravi.

0:07:36 > 0:07:41I was head of tax. I'm at the moment in between jobs.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43What are your interests outside accounting?

0:07:43 > 0:07:47I'm an armchair fanatic on sports.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49I will watch anything, even dressage.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51What do you mean, even dressage?

0:07:51 > 0:07:54- LAUGHTER - Well, I mean...

0:07:54 > 0:07:55It's exciting for me,

0:07:55 > 0:07:57but I have heard everybody else finds it quite boring.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00OK. Ravi, what would you like to go for on this board?

0:08:00 > 0:08:02In fact, would you like to take us through that board?

0:08:02 > 0:08:04- There are four blanks there. - I would love to.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07The last two, I have no clue.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09I know the other two, so,

0:08:09 > 0:08:11I'm going to go for the first one

0:08:11 > 0:08:14and say watt - W-A-T-T.

0:08:14 > 0:08:18Watt, says Ravi. Let's see how many of our 100 people said watt.

0:08:20 > 0:08:21It's...

0:08:21 > 0:08:23Oh, look at that! 85, Ravi.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28Yeah, that's a punishingly high score there.

0:08:28 > 0:08:29Isn't it, though?

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Named after the Scottish mechanical engineer, James Watt.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Now, let's go through the rest of these.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36I think you knew the second one. A space entirely devoid of matter.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38- Vacuum.- Vacuum.

0:08:38 > 0:08:3973 points for that.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41They say nature abhors a vacuum.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43But also dogs abhor vacuums, as well.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46- They do, yes.- Can't bear it. - They hate a vacuum.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48A substance which does not readily

0:08:48 > 0:08:49allow passage of heat or sound.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51I'm going to say an insulator.

0:08:51 > 0:08:52Insulator. That's correct.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54That would have scored you 39.

0:08:54 > 0:08:55And the bottom one...

0:08:55 > 0:08:56- is amplitude.- Amplitude.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59It's the best answer on the board. 10 points for that.

0:08:59 > 0:09:00Well done if you got it.

0:09:00 > 0:09:01Thank you very much, indeed, Richard.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03We're halfway through the round.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05Let's take a look at those scores. 19, Jacqueline.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Very well done, indeed. The best score of that pass.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Putting Jacqueline and David at the top of the table.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12Then up to 39, where we find Christine and Julia.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14Up to 62, Jayme and Sue,

0:09:14 > 0:09:16and then 85, Ravi and Sanam.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Now, Sanam, you're going to have to find

0:09:18 > 0:09:20a really low score on that next board.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22There's no way we're saying goodbye to you at the end of this round.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24We're coming back down the line now.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:09:28 > 0:09:31OK, let's put seven more physics definitions up on the board,

0:09:31 > 0:09:33and here they are.

0:09:33 > 0:09:34We have got...

0:10:03 > 0:10:05I will read those all one last time.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36Sanam, welcome back to Pointless.

0:10:36 > 0:10:37Great to have you here again.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39I'm sorry that you are the high-scorers,

0:10:39 > 0:10:42but you're under a LITTLE bit of pressure at this point -

0:10:42 > 0:10:44but remind us what stage you are at.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47I've just finished my A levels,

0:10:47 > 0:10:50so I'm starting university in a few months.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53Ooh! Very, very good luck. How many A levels did you do?

0:10:53 > 0:10:57Er, I did four in my first year and then three in my second year.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59That's just too many.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Seven A levels - and how did you do?

0:11:01 > 0:11:04I mean, like, four first stage ones, and then you carry it on.

0:11:04 > 0:11:05Oh, I see, OK.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07- I was thinking you'd done four A levels...- No, no.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10- ..halfway through your sixth form. - I'm not that brilliant!

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Oh, but, Sanam, I beg to differ.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15They changed it - my daughter did the same, they do AS levels -

0:11:15 > 0:11:16twice as much work as we used to have to do.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18I know - lower sixth used to be a doss!

0:11:18 > 0:11:20LAUGHTER

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Now, Sanam, there you are, 85, high-scorers -

0:11:22 > 0:11:24let's have a lovely low score from you,

0:11:24 > 0:11:27and really, really push yourself to find the lowest you possibly can.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29I know a few, I'm just trying to figure out

0:11:29 > 0:11:31which will be the lowest.

0:11:31 > 0:11:35Um...I think I'm going to go for the first one

0:11:35 > 0:11:38and hope it's going to be quite low, and say quark.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41- Quark.- Quark.

0:11:41 > 0:11:42Quark, says Sanam.

0:11:42 > 0:11:45No red line for you - you are the high-scorers.

0:11:45 > 0:11:48Let's see how many of our 100 people said quark.

0:11:55 > 0:11:5732. APPLAUSE

0:11:57 > 0:12:0232 for quark takes your total up to 117.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04Well done, Sanam - that's what they're producing

0:12:04 > 0:12:05in the Large Hadron Collider,

0:12:05 > 0:12:07all sorts of different types of quark, in fact -

0:12:07 > 0:12:09and the German for "cheese" is "quark", as well,

0:12:09 > 0:12:10or a certain type of cheese,

0:12:10 > 0:12:13and they must find that hilarious at the Large Hadron Collider.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16I wonder how many Germans turn up in CERN with some baskets...

0:12:16 > 0:12:20- Yeah, exactly.- ..going, "Mm, I'll have some of your..."

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Lovely toast - I'm presuming toasted cheese, yeah.

0:12:23 > 0:12:28If you're a German engineer, say, you must never stop laughing.

0:12:28 > 0:12:29Must be one endless joke.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32When you're talking about hundreds of different cheeses

0:12:32 > 0:12:35smashing into each other and creating nuclear explosions.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37- It is funny, certainly.- Yeah.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39Thanks very much indeed.

0:12:39 > 0:12:40Now, Julia, a warm welcome to Pointless.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Great to have you here from Norfolk -

0:12:42 > 0:12:45- whereabouts in Norfolk are you from? - Cromer.- Oh, pretty!- It is.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48- Very nice. And what do you do, Julia?- I'm a proofreader.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52I correct people's grammar, spelling and punctuation.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Very good!

0:12:54 > 0:12:56Do you change words, as well, if you feel that they've...?

0:12:56 > 0:13:01With some clients I do, when I feel what they're looking for,

0:13:01 > 0:13:02and I - I make suggestions.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05Interesting. And what do you do when you're not proofreading?

0:13:05 > 0:13:09Well, because my job involves sitting in front of a laptop,

0:13:09 > 0:13:11I like to get out and about a bit.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14I take dance classes quite a few times per week.

0:13:14 > 0:13:16What kind of dance do you do?

0:13:16 > 0:13:20Beginners' ballet, Latin, I've done jive...

0:13:20 > 0:13:24and I'm just going to start '70s and '80s disco!

0:13:24 > 0:13:26That's brilliant!

0:13:26 > 0:13:29Now, Julia, 77 or less gets you through.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34OK, I'm delighted that I know any of them at all,

0:13:34 > 0:13:39because I last took a physics exam when I was about 15, and scored 20%.

0:13:39 > 0:13:43So, I'm going to go for the bottom one,

0:13:43 > 0:13:45- which I believe is velocity. - Velocity...- Yes.- ..says Julia -

0:13:45 > 0:13:47here comes your red line.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49If you can get below that with velocity,

0:13:49 > 0:13:52you are through to the next round. How many people said velocity?

0:13:54 > 0:13:57It's right, and through you go.

0:13:57 > 0:14:0063. APPLAUSE

0:14:00 > 0:14:01Cutting it a bit fine, there -

0:14:01 > 0:14:03102 is your total, but you're through.

0:14:03 > 0:14:04Yeah, well played.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07The terminal velocity of an average human is 120mph.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10- Right.- Quite fast, isn't it? - Yeah, that is quite fast.

0:14:10 > 0:14:15- Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Sue. - Hello. Great to have you here.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17What do you do, Sue? Remind us.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20- Really a professional grandmother. - A professional grandmother.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23- Does that sound good?- No, I think that sounds very good indeed.

0:14:23 > 0:14:24What's the next big highlight

0:14:24 > 0:14:28- on the professional grandmothers' fixtures calendar?- None, I hope.

0:14:28 > 0:14:32- I've told them enough's enough. - You've put your foot down.- I have.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35Are you a disciplinarian as a grandmother, or are you a spoiler?

0:14:35 > 0:14:37- I'm wonderful. - Good, I'm delighted to hear that.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40Now, Sue, how are we feeling about this, physics?

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Well...

0:14:42 > 0:14:44I know two, and they're obviously the highest answers,

0:14:44 > 0:14:46so...

0:14:46 > 0:14:50- Which one shall I go for?- If you can score 54 or less...- Mm, OK.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52I'll go for the weight,

0:14:52 > 0:14:55- and it's a pendulum - I hope. - A pendulum, says Sue.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58Let's see if that's right - here's your red line.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00If you can get below that with pendulum,

0:15:00 > 0:15:01you are through to the next round.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04Let's see how many people said pendulum.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07It's right.

0:15:08 > 0:15:1065. APPLAUSE

0:15:10 > 0:15:12That's a high score, there.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15Takes your total up to 127.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17"Phew-ee," on podium four.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Yeah, used to regulate the movement of clocks,

0:15:19 > 0:15:21amongst many other things, pendulums.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23- Thank you very much.- Or pendula.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25- Pendula, I suppose, yeah. - I guess so.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27People don't really do that now, do they?

0:15:27 > 0:15:29- No.- People sort of shy away from Latin plurals.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Yeah - if you were a proofreader, and somebody said pendulums,

0:15:31 > 0:15:33would you change it to pendula?

0:15:33 > 0:15:35- I probably wouldn't, actually, no. - No.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37No, I think that would be too nit-picking, really.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39Well, we always call these podiums, don't we?

0:15:39 > 0:15:42- We do.- People often ask if that's right, or if it should be podia.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44Yeah.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46Right, now, David, welcome to the show.

0:15:46 > 0:15:49Great to have you here from Sunderland - well, from Washington.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52- Washington.- What do you do, David? - Like Jacqueline, I'm retired.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55- Have been for five years, now. - What did you do?

0:15:55 > 0:15:56Like Jacqueline, working in a bank,

0:15:56 > 0:15:59and then, for the last 15 years, or 14,

0:15:59 > 0:16:03I was an administrator in a sheltered home.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05Very good. So, did you and Jacqueline meet in the bank?

0:16:05 > 0:16:07- Of course, yeah!- Oh!

0:16:07 > 0:16:09A fair percentage of couples in the bank that we know

0:16:09 > 0:16:12- met their partners in the bank. - That's nice, very nice.- Yeah.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15Nice... Or maybe not - going to say, a nice atmosphere at the bank,

0:16:15 > 0:16:17or possibly less nice atmosphere at the bank.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19Well, in our day it was a nicer atmosphere than now.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22Yeah, I see. Now, David, you are on 19,

0:16:22 > 0:16:24which means, even if you score 100 points,

0:16:24 > 0:16:26you're still through to the next round.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28Do you want to go through them all?

0:16:28 > 0:16:32Er, the scale would be Celsius, then pressure...

0:16:32 > 0:16:35um...and horsepower...

0:16:35 > 0:16:38I thought the next one would be temperatures,

0:16:38 > 0:16:41but there's too many letters there, so I'll go with horsepower, please.

0:16:41 > 0:16:44Horsepower. Let's see if that's right - no red line for you.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Let's see how many people said horsepower.

0:16:48 > 0:16:49It's right.

0:16:53 > 0:16:5526 for horsepower. APPLAUSE

0:16:55 > 0:16:59Very, very well done indeed, David, taking your total up to 45,

0:16:59 > 0:17:01- the lowest total by some margin. - Well played, David, yeah -

0:17:01 > 0:17:04and that term, actually, was coined by James Watt,

0:17:04 > 0:17:06which brings the round nicely to its end.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08Let's fill in the rest of this board.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10You're right about Celsius.

0:17:10 > 0:17:11That would have scored you 77.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14You're right about pressure, as well.

0:17:14 > 0:17:15That would have scored you 33,

0:17:15 > 0:17:18so you chose the right one of the ones you knew,

0:17:18 > 0:17:20and the best answer on the board - do you know this last one?

0:17:20 > 0:17:23- I bet you do - it's thermodynamics.- Oh, yes!

0:17:23 > 0:17:26Thermodynamics. Very well done if you said that - 24 points.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28There we go - thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30At the end of our first round I can tell you

0:17:30 > 0:17:32there is one pair we are saying goodbye to,

0:17:32 > 0:17:34and I'm sorry to say, Sue and Jayme, it is you.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37127 - not that far ahead of the field, there,

0:17:37 > 0:17:39but I'm afraid you are the high-scorers.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41Thank you so much for coming to play Pointless,

0:17:41 > 0:17:44been great having you on both shows, but we say goodbye, now.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Sue and Jayme - great contestants.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48APPLAUSE

0:17:48 > 0:17:51But, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59Well done, everyone. We have made it through to Round Two -

0:17:59 > 0:18:02particularly well done to David and Jacqueline -

0:18:02 > 0:18:05lowest individual score and lowest combined score, on the first podium.

0:18:05 > 0:18:07So, that's pretty impressive.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09Obviously we'll have to say goodbye to another pair

0:18:09 > 0:18:12at the end of this round, so the best of luck to all three of you.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14Our category for Round Two today is...

0:18:15 > 0:18:16There we are, James Bond.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Can you decide in your pairs

0:18:18 > 0:18:20who's going to go first, who's going second?

0:18:20 > 0:18:22And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27OK, let's find out what the question is - here it comes.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...

0:18:35 > 0:18:38James Bond films with three or more words in their titles, Richard.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41- That's a bit more fun than Physics, isn't it?- Exactly.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44Yeah, we're looking for any official Eon-produced James Bond films

0:18:44 > 0:18:46that have three or more words in their title,

0:18:46 > 0:18:49please, up to June 2015. Very best of luck.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Thank you very much indeed.

0:18:51 > 0:18:56OK, so, David, official James Bond films with three or more words.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58Well, there's a few going round in my head,

0:18:58 > 0:19:01but I'll stick with an answer that won me a quiz once -

0:19:01 > 0:19:03The Spy Who Loved Me.

0:19:03 > 0:19:04The Spy Who Loved Me, says David.

0:19:04 > 0:19:08- It won you a quiz?- Yeah - just a small one on a cruise ship, so...!

0:19:08 > 0:19:10Well, let's hope it works again.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12It made the difference, as it was the tie-breaker.

0:19:12 > 0:19:16The Spy Who Loved Me - let's see how many people agree with David.

0:19:23 > 0:19:2526. APPLAUSE

0:19:25 > 0:19:28I think that's a good score, isn't it, David?

0:19:28 > 0:19:29Let's see.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31Well played, David, hope it brings you luck again.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33It had that car in there, didn't it? The Lotus Esprit,

0:19:33 > 0:19:35which was half car, half submarine,

0:19:35 > 0:19:39and they sold it in 2013 for £616,000.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41Apparently genuinely works as a submarine,

0:19:41 > 0:19:43- but doesn't work as a car. - LAUGHTER

0:19:43 > 0:19:47- Apparently.- That's good enough! - Yeah.- A Lotus submarine.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49- Yeah, exactly.- Aren't many of those.

0:19:49 > 0:19:52Er...well, there's only one, obviously.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54Thank you very much indeed.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Now, Julia.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Die Another Day.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Die Another Day. Ooh!

0:20:01 > 0:20:03That's a couple of hours I'll never get back.

0:20:03 > 0:20:07OK, let's see how many of our 100 people said Die Another Day.

0:20:11 > 0:20:15Well, 26 is our only score at this point. Die Another Day passes 26.

0:20:15 > 0:20:19Look at that - 13. APPLAUSE

0:20:19 > 0:20:2113 for Die Another Day.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24I think that's what we call selective memory, isn't it?

0:20:24 > 0:20:27Yeah, quite. There's a scene in that where he picks up a book

0:20:27 > 0:20:29called A Field Guide To The Birds Of The West Indies,

0:20:29 > 0:20:32which, of course, is famously where Ian Fleming got the name

0:20:32 > 0:20:34James Bond from, so, it was written by James Bond

0:20:34 > 0:20:36and was in Ian Fleming's study.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39- That's nice.- Yeah. - Thank you very much.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Ravi.

0:20:41 > 0:20:45Well, I know a lot of single ones.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47I think I'll go back to the love theme,

0:20:47 > 0:20:50and go with From Russia With Love.

0:20:50 > 0:20:52From Russia With Love, says Ravi.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55Let's see how many people said From Russia With Love.

0:21:03 > 0:21:0534. APPLAUSE

0:21:07 > 0:21:10Well played, Ravi. It's just occurred to me, of course,

0:21:10 > 0:21:13if Ian Fleming had started writing the James Bond novels today,

0:21:13 > 0:21:15James Bond would be called Bill Oddie.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17LAUGHTER

0:21:17 > 0:21:19- Interesting.- Interesting. - Very interesting.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21Thank you. Well, halfway through the round,

0:21:21 > 0:21:23let's take a look at those scores as they stand.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26Julia, well done, Julia and Christine on the low score of 13,

0:21:26 > 0:21:28up to 26, David and Jacqueline,

0:21:28 > 0:21:31then 34, not too far ahead, Ravi and Sanam -

0:21:31 > 0:21:33but, Sanam, you are ahead.

0:21:33 > 0:21:34You know what you have to do.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36Think of a nice low-scoring one if you can.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38Quite hard to decide what's going to be low-scoring,

0:21:38 > 0:21:40but if anyone can do it, I'm sure you can.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42We're going to come back down the line,

0:21:42 > 0:21:44can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:21:47 > 0:21:50So, remember, Sanam, we're looking for any of the official

0:21:50 > 0:21:54James Bond films with three or more words in their titles.

0:21:54 > 0:21:57Um, this is a really bad category for me!

0:21:57 > 0:22:01Um...I'm so not, like, an action film, James Bond...

0:22:01 > 0:22:05I think I've only seen the newest ones, I don't have a lot of

0:22:05 > 0:22:11knowledge, so I'm going to hope this is even the right title and say...

0:22:11 > 0:22:13For Your Eyes Only.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16For Your Eyes Only, says Sanam.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18No red line for you, as you're the high-scorers,

0:22:18 > 0:22:22but let's see how many of our 100 people said For Your Eyes Only.

0:22:23 > 0:22:24It's right.

0:22:30 > 0:22:31Not bad! Look at that! APPLAUSE

0:22:31 > 0:22:34Very good indeed, Sanam, just what we needed.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37Lovely low score of 7 takes your total up to 41.

0:22:37 > 0:22:38Well played, Sanam, and in that film,

0:22:38 > 0:22:41there's a sequence where Q has to punch in a seven digit code...

0:22:41 > 0:22:44- It's his phone number? - It's not his phone number -

0:22:44 > 0:22:48it's the first seven notes of Nobody Does It Better.

0:22:48 > 0:22:52Oh! Anoraks just have got so much to get their teeth into.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54Yeah, haven't they just? Haven't they just?

0:22:54 > 0:22:56That's wonderful. Thank you very much indeed.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58Now, Christine,

0:22:58 > 0:23:01you're on 13, lovely low score from Julia,

0:23:01 > 0:23:03which means 27 or less

0:23:03 > 0:23:06sees you through to the head-to-head.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08Wondering which will be lowest.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11I'm thinking I'll go for You Only Live Twice.

0:23:11 > 0:23:12You Only Live Twice, says Christine.

0:23:12 > 0:23:15There's your red line, Christine, let's see how many of our 100 people

0:23:15 > 0:23:18said You Only Live Twice. Can you get below that?

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Ooh, 36.

0:23:25 > 0:23:26APPLAUSE

0:23:26 > 0:23:2936 takes your total up to 49, getting quite close here,

0:23:29 > 0:23:31but Sanam and Ravi heave a sigh of relief over there.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33Yeah, the screenplay for that was written by -

0:23:33 > 0:23:36or the original screenplay - written by Roald Dahl.

0:23:36 > 0:23:38- I was going to say Bill Oddie. - Oh, it wasn't Bill Oddie.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40And, the grand finale, it made so much noise

0:23:40 > 0:23:42that it frightened Blofeld's white cat away.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45It disappeared for three days and was found in the

0:23:45 > 0:23:47- rafters of the set. - LAUGHTER

0:23:47 > 0:23:48- Aww.- Aww.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51- Sweet, isn't it? - You forget it's just a white cat.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54- I know.- Not really evil.- So, it wasn't evil at all, it turns out.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56No. Thank you very much, Richard.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58Now, Jacqueline, you are on 26,

0:23:58 > 0:24:00the high-scorers at this point,

0:24:00 > 0:24:01Christine and Julie are on 49.

0:24:01 > 0:24:0422 or less is what we require.

0:24:05 > 0:24:09I think it's going to have to be A View To A Kill.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11A View To A Kill, says Jacqueline.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13Here's your red line. If you can get below that with

0:24:13 > 0:24:16A View To A Kill, you are through to the head-to-head.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18How many people said A View To A Kill?

0:24:26 > 0:24:28You've done it, look at that. A View To A Kill, 11.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30APPLAUSE Very well done indeed,

0:24:30 > 0:24:3137 is your total.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36Now, in that film, there's a scene where they have

0:24:36 > 0:24:39facial recognition software, which didn't exist at the time

0:24:39 > 0:24:41and William Casey, who was head of the CIA at the time,

0:24:41 > 0:24:44saw the film and ordered the CIA to start developing it.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47That happens with Star Trek. A lot of Star Trek technology

0:24:47 > 0:24:48becomes real technology.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50A lot of stuff on the A-Team as well.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53A lot of A-Team stuff does become real.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55Now, it's very interesting with Bond films

0:24:55 > 0:24:58because the same film always scores lowest, always does,

0:24:58 > 0:25:00and it is For Your Eyes Only. It's the lowest-scorer out there.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03Something about that film, for whatever reason,

0:25:03 > 0:25:04always comes bottom of the list.

0:25:04 > 0:25:07And the next two best answers, well, you could have had 10 points

0:25:07 > 0:25:09for The Living Daylights, but then A View To A Kill

0:25:09 > 0:25:11is the third best answer with 11 points.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13I'll give you a few of the other scorers.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15In fact, let's go through all of them, shall we?

0:25:15 > 0:25:1813 points for Licence To Kill and for Die Another Day,

0:25:18 > 0:25:2018 points for On Her Majesty's Secret Service

0:25:20 > 0:25:21and Tomorrow Never Dies,

0:25:21 > 0:25:2519 for The World Is Not Enough, 21 for one of the more recent ones,

0:25:25 > 0:25:26Quantum Of Solace.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28You'd have got 27 for Diamonds Are Forever,

0:25:28 > 0:25:3034 for The Man With The Golden Gun.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33Then, From Russia with Love, 34, You Only Live Twice, 36,

0:25:33 > 0:25:35and the biggest scorer?

0:25:35 > 0:25:37Live And Let Die.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40- There we are.- 51.- Thank you very much indeed.- Pleasure.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42So, we are at the end of our second round and,

0:25:42 > 0:25:44Christine and Julia, absolutely nothing wrong

0:25:44 > 0:25:46with your scoring there,

0:25:46 > 0:25:48but just 49 happens to be our high score.

0:25:48 > 0:25:50So, I'm afraid, we have to say goodbye to you at this point.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53However, we'll see you again next time and I'm sure you'll do

0:25:53 > 0:25:55even better, but, meantime, thanks very much.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59Christine and Julia. APPLAUSE

0:25:59 > 0:26:03But, for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09Very well done, David and Jacqueline, Sanam and Ravi.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11You're now one step closer to the final and

0:26:11 > 0:26:16a chance to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at...

0:26:16 > 0:26:19Well, from here on in, as you know, you start playing as a pair,

0:26:19 > 0:26:21you can confer before giving answers, first pair to win

0:26:21 > 0:26:24two questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26It should be very exciting, best of luck to both pairs.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28Let's play the head-to-head.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35Here comes your first question and it concerns...

0:26:40 > 0:26:43People who share a name with a member of The Famous Five, Richard.

0:26:43 > 0:26:45I'm going to show you pictures of five people now.

0:26:45 > 0:26:48They all share a name with a member of Enid Blyton's Famous Five.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49Can you identify the most obscure of these?

0:26:49 > 0:26:52Let's reveal our five people and here they come.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54We've got...

0:27:18 > 0:27:22Five people who share their names with members of The Famous Five.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24David and Jacqueline, you will go first.

0:27:25 > 0:27:29- Dick Cheney? Dick Cheney?- Right.

0:27:29 > 0:27:30Go for that? I think it is.

0:27:30 > 0:27:34We'll go for A. We think it's the American politician Dick Cheney.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37Dick Cheney, say David and Jacqueline.

0:27:37 > 0:27:38Dick Cheney.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42Now then, Sanam and Ravi, do you want to talk us through that board?

0:27:42 > 0:27:44Not really!

0:27:44 > 0:27:48- B's Mr Osborne.- Yeah, he looks much slimmer on TV now

0:27:48 > 0:27:49than in that picture.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54I think we're going to go for E

0:27:54 > 0:27:56and Eddie Izzard.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00Eddie Izzard, OK.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Eddie Izzard. So, we have Dick Cheney and we have Eddie Izzard.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06David and Jacqueline said Dick Cheney for A.

0:28:06 > 0:28:07Let's see if that's right.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19Oh, look at that! APPLAUSE

0:28:19 > 0:28:22Very well done indeed, David and Jacqueline.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25That is a pointless answer, that adds £250 to today's jackpot

0:28:25 > 0:28:27taking the total up to...

0:28:28 > 0:28:31It scores you nothing and leaves you in very good shape

0:28:31 > 0:28:33for this first question.

0:28:33 > 0:28:37Sanam and Ravi have gone for Eddie Izzard for E, Eddie Izzard.

0:28:37 > 0:28:39Let's see if that's right.

0:28:42 > 0:28:44I'm afraid not Eddie Izzard,

0:28:44 > 0:28:47which means, David and Jacqueline, not that there was much doubt

0:28:47 > 0:28:49after that low score.

0:28:49 > 0:28:51After the first question, you are up one-nil.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54100-nil as well, that one was, which is very, very rare.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56This is one that was very helpful to know the names

0:28:56 > 0:29:00of The Famous Five because one of the Famous Five is Julian

0:29:00 > 0:29:03and that is Julian Clary.

0:29:03 > 0:29:05He would have scored you 42 points.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11Let's take a look at B, that, of course, is George Osborne.

0:29:11 > 0:29:14Would have scored you 43, that's before they put him

0:29:14 > 0:29:15on the 5:2 diet, that, isn't it?

0:29:15 > 0:29:17- Mmm.- Gave him a right old makeover.

0:29:17 > 0:29:19I'm sure it's just a really thick coat.

0:29:19 > 0:29:21RICHARD LAUGHS

0:29:21 > 0:29:22- C is...- Timmy Mallet.

0:29:22 > 0:29:23Timmy Mallett.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26Course it is. Would have scored you 38.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29- And D...- Lovely Anne Reid. - Wonderful Anne Reid, absolutely.

0:29:29 > 0:29:32And that would have scored you 7 points.

0:29:32 > 0:29:34- She played my mother-in-law... - Did she?

0:29:34 > 0:29:35..in Life Begins.

0:29:35 > 0:29:37There we are, thank you very much indeed.

0:29:37 > 0:29:39So, here comes your second question.

0:29:39 > 0:29:41Now, Sanam and Ravi, you have to win this one

0:29:41 > 0:29:43to stay in the game, but you get to answer it first,

0:29:43 > 0:29:45which is a bonus, so best of luck with that.

0:29:45 > 0:29:47Our second question today concerns...

0:29:49 > 0:29:51Pink Floyd Albums, Richard.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54I'm going to show you the initials of five Pink Floyd albums.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56Can you tell us what they're called, please?

0:29:56 > 0:30:00Let's reveal our five sets of initials and here they come.

0:30:00 > 0:30:01We have got...

0:30:08 > 0:30:11HE READS THEM AGAIN

0:30:14 > 0:30:16Sanam and Ravi will go first.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19- (No idea.)- (I don't know at all. Do you?)

0:30:19 > 0:30:23(The only one that I know is number two which is The Wall.)

0:30:23 > 0:30:25(Can you think of any others?)

0:30:27 > 0:30:30(I think that's the only one I know...)

0:30:30 > 0:30:35(I don't know any others so... I don't know Pink Floyd at all.)

0:30:35 > 0:30:39Er... So we've got to go with the highest scoring one, The Wall.

0:30:39 > 0:30:40You're going to go for The Wall.

0:30:40 > 0:30:45Sanam and Ravi go for The Wall, and possibly to it!

0:30:45 > 0:30:48David and Jacqueline, what are you going to go for?

0:30:48 > 0:30:50Do you want to go through all of those albums?

0:30:50 > 0:30:54- I know nothing about Pink Floyd. - Oh!- We knew The Wall.

0:30:54 > 0:30:58- Ooh!- But...- We'll have to make one up.

0:30:58 > 0:31:00- Not the...?- The bottom one,

0:31:00 > 0:31:03- how about The Easter Rising? - Right, go on, then.

0:31:03 > 0:31:05We'll go for the bottom one, The Easter Rising.

0:31:05 > 0:31:07That's good making-up, I have to say.

0:31:07 > 0:31:09Exactly, that is good.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12APPLAUSE

0:31:12 > 0:31:14The Easter Rising.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17So, Sanam and Ravi have gone for The Wall, let's see if that's right,

0:31:17 > 0:31:20let's see how many of our 100 people said The Wall.

0:31:27 > 0:31:28Well, it's quite high, 27.

0:31:28 > 0:31:31APPLAUSE

0:31:31 > 0:31:34But possibly in the context of The Easter Rising,

0:31:34 > 0:31:36that might be a good score.

0:31:36 > 0:31:39Let's see how many of our 100 went for The Easter Rising.

0:31:42 > 0:31:44No, I'm afraid not.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47But I have to say once again, good making-up there.

0:31:47 > 0:31:50Sanam and Ravi, David and Jacqueline have been kind to you

0:31:50 > 0:31:52by not knowing anything about Pink Floyd.

0:31:52 > 0:31:55You're back in the game. After two questions, it's one-all.

0:31:55 > 0:31:56Yeah, it's a very good guess.

0:31:56 > 0:31:59The bottom one is actually The Endless River.

0:31:59 > 0:32:007 points for that, if you said it.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03No, The Wall isn't actually the highest scorer.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05- The high scorer is... - Dark Side Of The Moon.

0:32:05 > 0:32:06..The Dark Side Of The Moon

0:32:06 > 0:32:08and that would've scored 36.

0:32:08 > 0:32:13- The top one is...- I don't know. - ..A Momentary Lapse Of Reason.- Ah.

0:32:13 > 0:32:15- It would've scored 5, and the middle one?- Wish You Were Here.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17- Wish You Were Here.- I know that one.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20- And that would've scored you 17 points.- There we are.

0:32:20 > 0:32:21Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23So it all comes down to a third question.

0:32:23 > 0:32:25Whoever wins it goes through to the final

0:32:25 > 0:32:28and plays for that jackpot so best of luck to both pairs.

0:32:28 > 0:32:31Our third question today is all about...

0:32:33 > 0:32:35New York Sports Teams. Richard.

0:32:35 > 0:32:37We're going to show you the names now of five New York sports teams

0:32:37 > 0:32:40and the home arena where they play. We just need you to tell us

0:32:40 > 0:32:43the name of the sport that each of these teams play, please.

0:32:43 > 0:32:45Very best of luck to both teams.

0:32:45 > 0:32:49OK, so what are the sports of these five teams? And here they are.

0:33:02 > 0:33:04I'll read those all one last time.

0:33:14 > 0:33:18So, David and Jacqueline, you will go first this time.

0:33:18 > 0:33:19It's up to you, dear.

0:33:19 > 0:33:21Knicks is baseball, I think.

0:33:21 > 0:33:23But I think Red Bulls was...

0:33:23 > 0:33:26just normal football, isn't it?

0:33:26 > 0:33:29- It's where...- Soccer? - Aye, soccer.

0:33:29 > 0:33:34We'll go for the Red Bulls, which I think is just soccer.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36The Red Bulls, soccer.

0:33:36 > 0:33:39New York Red Bulls, soccer, say David and Jacqueline.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43Now, Sanam and Ravi, talk us through that board, if you can.

0:33:43 > 0:33:48I think that the New York Yankees would be baseball?

0:33:48 > 0:33:52- Yep. Giants...- New York Giants would be American football.

0:33:52 > 0:33:55New York Knicks, not quite sure.

0:33:55 > 0:33:59New York Rangers, possibly ice hockey.

0:33:59 > 0:34:03We'll go with New York Giants, American football.

0:34:03 > 0:34:06New York Giants, American football, say Sanam and Ravi.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09So, David and Jacqueline went for soccer

0:34:09 > 0:34:11for the Red Bulls. Let's see if that's right.

0:34:11 > 0:34:14Let's see how many of our 100 said soccer.

0:34:21 > 0:34:2424. APPLAUSE

0:34:25 > 0:34:2724 for soccer.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30Now then, Sanam and Ravi have said football for the New York Giants.

0:34:30 > 0:34:31Let's see if that's right,

0:34:31 > 0:34:34let's see how many of our 100 people said American football.

0:34:41 > 0:34:43Ooh, 29, only five in it!

0:34:43 > 0:34:46APPLAUSE

0:34:47 > 0:34:49But very well done, David and Jacqueline,

0:34:49 > 0:34:52it means after three questions you are through to the final, two-one.

0:34:52 > 0:34:55Yeah, there is an answer up there that would've beaten soccer

0:34:55 > 0:34:58and that's New York Rangers. Ravi, if you'd had to have a guess,

0:34:58 > 0:35:00- what would you have said? - Ice hockey.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02- Ice hockey is the right answer.- Oh!

0:35:02 > 0:35:05It would've seen you into the jackpot round, 17 points.

0:35:05 > 0:35:08Very well done if you said that at home, best answer on the board.

0:35:08 > 0:35:10The Yankees is, of course, baseball.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12It's the biggest score.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15Would've scored 66, and the Knicks is basketball

0:35:15 > 0:35:18and they would've scored you 35.

0:35:18 > 0:35:20Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:35:20 > 0:35:22So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:35:22 > 0:35:25I'm afraid, Sanam and Ravi. Do you know what?

0:35:25 > 0:35:28I think that's the accountant in you, Ravi. You weren't prepared...

0:35:28 > 0:35:31You had that risky answer there but you knew the other one was right

0:35:31 > 0:35:34so you went with the right one and not the risky one.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36Which, in many ways, we have to salute. This is good, Sanam.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39- You should be pleased with your father's, you know...- I'll try.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41His reliability, there we are. But I'm afraid...

0:35:41 > 0:35:44If you'd taken that risk, it would be you going through to the final.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46It's been wonderful having you on both shows.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49Thank you so much for playing. Wonderful contestants.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51- Thank you.- Thank you. - APPLAUSE

0:35:53 > 0:35:55But for David and Jacqueline,

0:35:55 > 0:35:57it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:36:00 > 0:36:02Very, very well done, David and Jacqueline.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04You have seen off all the competition

0:36:04 > 0:36:07and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:36:12 > 0:36:15You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot

0:36:15 > 0:36:20and at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,250.

0:36:20 > 0:36:22Well, what would you like to see come up in this last round?

0:36:22 > 0:36:25Erm, tennis, classical music.

0:36:25 > 0:36:27Football.

0:36:27 > 0:36:29Erm... Older football.

0:36:29 > 0:36:33OK! A nice broad range of things so you shouldn't be too scared.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35- Yeah, history, geography. - Absolutely fantastic.

0:36:35 > 0:36:38We've had low score after low score from you.

0:36:38 > 0:36:39If you were to win this jackpot,

0:36:39 > 0:36:41then we'll be equalling our Pointless record

0:36:41 > 0:36:44of giving out seven consecutive jackpots so that would be exciting.

0:36:44 > 0:36:47Anyway, let's hope there's something up on that board

0:36:47 > 0:36:50to help you win it. Today's selection looks like this.

0:36:57 > 0:37:00- Well, the top one's out. - The top one's out, yes.

0:37:00 > 0:37:02Queen Victoria, possibly.

0:37:02 > 0:37:04- 20th Century Literature... - It could be anything.

0:37:04 > 0:37:06- Sport In Leeds?- Sport In Leeds? - Leeds United...

0:37:06 > 0:37:09- Queen Victoria?- Aye, go on. Queen Victoria.

0:37:09 > 0:37:10We'll go for Queen Victoria.

0:37:10 > 0:37:12Queen Victoria, say David and Jacqueline.

0:37:12 > 0:37:14OK. Very, very best of luck.

0:37:14 > 0:37:16We're looking for one of the following three things, please.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19We are looking for the first name of any person who was

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Prime Minister during Queen Victoria's reign.

0:37:21 > 0:37:24So anyone who was a Prime Minister at any point during her reign.

0:37:24 > 0:37:29We're looking for anyone who was credited in acting in Mrs Brown,

0:37:29 > 0:37:32please, according to IMDb, so any of the cast of Mrs Brown.

0:37:32 > 0:37:34Or we're looking for the first names of any

0:37:34 > 0:37:37of Queen Victoria's children so the given birth names

0:37:37 > 0:37:39of any of Queen Victoria's children, please.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41So Prime Ministers' first names, cast of Mrs Brown

0:37:41 > 0:37:43and the first names of Queen Victoria's children.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46- Very best of luck.- OK, now, as always, you've got up to one minute

0:37:46 > 0:37:48to come up with three answers and all you need to win

0:37:48 > 0:37:51that jackpot is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:37:51 > 0:37:53- Are you ready?- We're ready.- Yep.

0:37:53 > 0:37:55OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58There they are, your time starts now.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01The cast of Mrs Brown, the cast of Mrs Brown had...

0:38:01 > 0:38:04What'd they call him that was in...? It was Judi Dench, Geoffrey...

0:38:04 > 0:38:06- Palmer.- Palmer.- Geoffrey Palmer.

0:38:06 > 0:38:10- The first names of Queen Victoria...?- Maud.- Maud.

0:38:10 > 0:38:12Erm...

0:38:12 > 0:38:14Albert there?

0:38:14 > 0:38:15Erm...

0:38:15 > 0:38:19First names of Prime Ministers, was it Lord John Russell?

0:38:19 > 0:38:23- Lord... Yeah.- Lord John Russell.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25Geoffrey Palmer and...

0:38:25 > 0:38:27- Maud, did you say?- Maud.

0:38:27 > 0:38:29- I mean, we'll keep thinking.- OK.

0:38:32 > 0:38:36Victoria, Edward, erm...

0:38:36 > 0:38:37What's his first name?

0:38:37 > 0:38:39Beatrice.

0:38:39 > 0:38:42John's a common name, John Russell...

0:38:42 > 0:38:45Do you think we should stick with him?

0:38:45 > 0:38:47- What was Earl Liverpool's name? - I couldn't think.

0:38:47 > 0:38:49Ten seconds left.

0:38:50 > 0:38:52So we're going for the...

0:38:54 > 0:38:57- I think that's it. - I think that's it, yeah.

0:38:57 > 0:38:58OK, that's your time up.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00Sounds like you've arrived at your three answers.

0:39:00 > 0:39:03If you could say which category you're answering when you give them.

0:39:03 > 0:39:06- We'll do one from all three.- OK.

0:39:06 > 0:39:10Prime Ministers' first names, we'll go for Lord John Russell.

0:39:10 > 0:39:14- John.- And in the cast of Mrs Brown was Geoffrey Palmer.

0:39:14 > 0:39:15Geoffrey Palmer.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18- And Maud for one of Queen Victoria's children.- Maud.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20OK, there we are, three answers.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer,

0:39:23 > 0:39:25- do you reckon?- Mrs Brown? Geoffrey Palmer.- Yes.

0:39:25 > 0:39:26OK, Geoffrey Palmer, we'll put third.

0:39:26 > 0:39:28Put him as your last answer. Your first answer,

0:39:28 > 0:39:31the one you think is least likely to be pointless?

0:39:31 > 0:39:32- John is a common name... - Lord John Russell.

0:39:32 > 0:39:34We'll go for John, OK.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36Let's pop the answers up on the board in that order then

0:39:36 > 0:39:37and here they are.

0:39:37 > 0:39:41We've got John, we've got Maud and we've got Geoffrey Palmer.

0:39:41 > 0:39:42Well, very, very best of luck.

0:39:42 > 0:39:44Three good answers on the board there.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47If one of these answers happens to be pointless and wins that jackpot

0:39:47 > 0:39:51of £1,250 for you, what would you like to do with it? David?

0:39:51 > 0:39:55It'll probably go in the holiday fund and that's about it.

0:39:55 > 0:39:57- Jacqueline? - Probably the same.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00Both of our sons live down south and we always have to

0:40:00 > 0:40:04stay in a hotel when we visit them so it would come in pretty handy.

0:40:04 > 0:40:05OK, well, very best of luck.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08In the first instance, we were looking for the first names of

0:40:08 > 0:40:10any of Queen Victoria's Prime Ministers. You went for John.

0:40:10 > 0:40:14Let's see if it is right, if it is pointless, it wins you £1,250.

0:40:14 > 0:40:17How many people said John?

0:40:18 > 0:40:20Well, it's right.

0:40:20 > 0:40:22Now all it has to do is go all the way down to 0

0:40:22 > 0:40:25and you can leave here with £1,250.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27Down it goes, John, through the 20s.

0:40:27 > 0:40:28Into the teens.

0:40:28 > 0:40:29Into single figures...

0:40:29 > 0:40:318.

0:40:31 > 0:40:33APPLAUSE

0:40:33 > 0:40:35We stop at 8 for John.

0:40:35 > 0:40:39That's a great score. Sadly, though, not a pointless answer.

0:40:39 > 0:40:42So we move on to your next answer which was Maud.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44In this case, we were looking for the names of any

0:40:44 > 0:40:46of Queen Victoria's children.

0:40:46 > 0:40:49It has to be pointless again for you to win that jackpot.

0:40:49 > 0:40:52So, for £1,250, let's see how many people said Maud.

0:40:54 > 0:40:57Ooh.

0:40:57 > 0:40:59No Maud, I'm afraid.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01Which means you only have one more shot at today's jackpot.

0:41:01 > 0:41:04Everything is now riding on your third and final answer,

0:41:04 > 0:41:06your most confident shot at a pointless answer

0:41:06 > 0:41:08which was Geoffrey Palmer.

0:41:08 > 0:41:11In this case, we were looking for actors from the cast of Mrs Brown.

0:41:11 > 0:41:15For £1,250, how many people said Geoffrey Palmer?

0:41:15 > 0:41:17Is it pointless?

0:41:19 > 0:41:21It's right.

0:41:21 > 0:41:22Your first answer, John,

0:41:22 > 0:41:24took us all the way down to 8.

0:41:24 > 0:41:26Your second answer, Maud, was incorrect

0:41:26 > 0:41:28but your third and final answer,

0:41:28 > 0:41:30Geoffrey Palmer, is now going through,

0:41:30 > 0:41:32it passes 8 down through... Oh!

0:41:32 > 0:41:353! APPLAUSE

0:41:37 > 0:41:40Well, two exceptionally low scores there in that final round

0:41:40 > 0:41:42but I'm afraid you just didn't find that pointless answer

0:41:42 > 0:41:45that you needed to win today's jackpot of £1,250.

0:41:45 > 0:41:48You don't win that, I'm afraid, that goes over into the next show

0:41:48 > 0:41:50but we've loved having you on the show.

0:41:50 > 0:41:52I'm sorry it's been only one appearance

0:41:52 > 0:41:54for the David and Jacqueline team.

0:41:54 > 0:41:57But very, very strong, haven't really put a foot wrong at all.

0:41:57 > 0:42:00And, don't forget, you get to take home a pointless trophy each

0:42:00 > 0:42:02so very, very well done. David and Jacqueline.

0:42:02 > 0:42:05APPLAUSE

0:42:07 > 0:42:09Yeah, a valiant effort. Well done.

0:42:09 > 0:42:12Maud was her granddaughter, Edward VII's daughter.

0:42:12 > 0:42:14It is also Alice's middle name as well, Maud.

0:42:14 > 0:42:16But no children called Maud, I'm afraid.

0:42:16 > 0:42:19Let's take a look at the pointless answers in the different categories.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21Prime Ministers' first names.

0:42:21 > 0:42:23You could've had Archibald Primrose or Henry Temple.

0:42:23 > 0:42:25Those are the only pointless answers there,

0:42:25 > 0:42:28well done if you said either of those at home.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30Let's take a look now at the cast of Mrs Brown.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32The only people who scored points at all were

0:42:32 > 0:42:35Judi Dench, Billy Connolly and Geoffrey Palmer, I'm afraid.

0:42:35 > 0:42:36Antony Sher who played Disraeli,

0:42:36 > 0:42:38Finty Williams who is Judi Dench's daughter

0:42:38 > 0:42:40and played Princess Helena,

0:42:40 > 0:42:42of whom we will hear more in a moment.

0:42:42 > 0:42:45Gerard Butler, who played John Brown's brother.

0:42:45 > 0:42:48And then Oliver Kent, who was Prince Alfred.

0:42:48 > 0:42:51And only two answers for Queen Victoria's children.

0:42:51 > 0:42:53They were Helena and Louise.

0:42:53 > 0:42:56So very, very well done if you got any of those at home.

0:42:56 > 0:42:58Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:42:58 > 0:43:00Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you

0:43:00 > 0:43:01but we've loved having you on the show.

0:43:01 > 0:43:04Thank you so much for playing so well. Great contestants.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06APPLAUSE

0:43:07 > 0:43:10Well, sadly, David and Jacqueline didn't win our jackpot today

0:43:10 > 0:43:12which means it rolls over on to the next show

0:43:12 > 0:43:15when we will be playing for £2,250.

0:43:15 > 0:43:18APPLAUSE

0:43:18 > 0:43:20Join us then to see if someone can win it.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.

0:43:24 > 0:43:28APPLAUSE
