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

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:25 > 0:00:28the show that makes big winners out of the lowest scorers.

0:00:28 > 0:00:29Let's meet today's players.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35And couple number one.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Hi, I'm Jenny, this is my childhood friend, Sarah,

0:00:37 > 0:00:40and she's from the East Midlands, and I'm from the West Midlands.

0:00:40 > 0:00:41Couple number two.

0:00:41 > 0:00:43Hello, my name's Mark, this is my mum, Shirley,

0:00:43 > 0:00:45and we're both from Sandhurst.

0:00:45 > 0:00:46Couple number three.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48Hi, my name's Nicola, this is my sister-in-law, Marlene,

0:00:48 > 0:00:49and we're from Essex.

0:00:49 > 0:00:51And finally, couple number four.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Hello, I'm John, this is my sister, Alison.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56She lives in Glasgow, and I live in Kingston.

0:00:56 > 0:00:57And these are today's contestants.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02Thanks very much, all of you. Very warm welcome to our newcomers.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05We'll chat to each of you throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09I hope he's sitting comfortably.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12Or as comfortably as possible given that we've each had

0:01:12 > 0:01:14matching butterfly tattoos done on our backsides.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16If my Pointless friend, it's Richard.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18Hiya.

0:01:18 > 0:01:19Hi, everybody.

0:01:22 > 0:01:23You know, it was weird,

0:01:23 > 0:01:26because when he first tattooed it, it was a caterpillar.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29LAUGHTER

0:01:29 > 0:01:30Anyway...

0:01:30 > 0:01:32One returning pair from the last show.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Jenny and Sarah, welcome back.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37I think Jenny played it too safe last time.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40I think Sarah did very well, Jenny played too safe, but I think

0:01:40 > 0:01:42they've learned from that experience and should go all the way.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45- We've given away two jackpots in a row now, haven't we?- Yeah.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48Alex and Christian won it on The Blues Brothers last time,

0:01:48 > 0:01:50if you missed it.

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Round Two today, I think you're going to do very, very well on.

0:01:54 > 0:01:58- Oh, am I?- I think so.- Oh, good. - I think you are.- About time.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Everybody else in Britain pretty much is going to do badly.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02- I think you'll do quite well. - Excellent.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05Thank you very much indeed. Looking forward to that.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07So, yes, Alex and Christian won the jackpot last time,

0:02:07 > 0:02:11so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000. There it is.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22All you have to remember is this - the pair with the highest score

0:02:22 > 0:02:25at the end of each round will be eliminated. That is all.

0:02:25 > 0:02:26Best of luck to all four pairs.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29Our first category this afternoon is...

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Earth Science. Can you all decide in your pairs

0:02:35 > 0:02:37who's going to go first, who's going to go second?

0:02:37 > 0:02:40And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45OK, and the question concerns...

0:02:48 > 0:02:50The natural world. Richard.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52We're going to give you seven definitions on each pass

0:02:52 > 0:02:54to things relating to the natural world.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56We just need you to give us the answer.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59We'll give you the first and last letters of each one as well.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02There's going to be seven on the first board, seven on the second,

0:03:02 > 0:03:0414 in all to have a go in at home. Very best of luck.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07- OK.- You know, sometimes we like to do a school subject for you.

0:03:07 > 0:03:08- I like a school subject. - Yeah.- It's good.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11And Earth Science is sort of... That's kind of like biology.

0:03:11 > 0:03:12Oh, and next can be RE.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15- CHUCKLES Wow.- That'd be good.

0:03:15 > 0:03:16And then, but Friday, double PE.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18- Whey!- Whey!

0:03:18 > 0:03:20So no-one has to do any revision at all.

0:03:20 > 0:03:21Ah! There we go.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25OK, so let's reveal our first board of seven clues

0:03:25 > 0:03:27relating to the Earth.

0:03:27 > 0:03:28And here they come.

0:03:59 > 0:04:00I'll read those all one last time.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32Now, Jenny, welcome back.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35- Remind us what you do, Jenny. - I'm a primary school teacher.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37And what are your hobbies, Jenny?

0:04:37 > 0:04:40I'm a mum to Molly, who's three, and Jacob, who's one,

0:04:40 > 0:04:41so we do lots of fun activities.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43Hello, Molly and Jake.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46- I also enjoy geo-caching. - Oh, do you?- Yes.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48I'm not very good at it, but I do enjoy it.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50So how do you have to be good at it?

0:04:50 > 0:04:52You have to get there before anyone else?

0:04:52 > 0:04:54No, you just have to do get there and find

0:04:54 > 0:04:57either a large object or normally a small object

0:04:57 > 0:04:58hidden in obscure places.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Very good.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Jenny, what would you like to go for on this board?

0:05:02 > 0:05:05Hopefully, it's not the largest answer this time.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07Answer three, omnivore.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10Omnivore for the third one down. Omnivore.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:05:15 > 0:05:16It's right.

0:05:18 > 0:05:19- Ooh, no.- 66.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21- APPLAUSE - That's really bad.

0:05:21 > 0:05:22Well, it's not too bad.

0:05:22 > 0:05:26- 66 for omnivore. - Yeah, tough on that first podium.

0:05:26 > 0:05:28I think there'll be a lot of big scorers in this round.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30Omnivore, 66.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32Most birds are omnivores.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34They'll eat worms and berries,

0:05:34 > 0:05:36which is a starter at Heston Blumenthal's new restaurant.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39- That's the name of his new restaurant.- Worms And Berries.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41- Heston's Worms And Berries.- Oh.

0:05:41 > 0:05:42I'd still go.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45- Mm.- Mm. Ah. Mm.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47- Now, Mark, welcome to Pointless. - Hello.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49Great to have you here from Sandhurst.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52- What do you do, Mark? - I'm an air hygiene engineer.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54Oh, now, that's fun. How does that work? Fans?

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Yeah. Fans, extract systems,

0:05:57 > 0:05:59like, mainly restaurants when they're closed and that.

0:05:59 > 0:06:03- Just cleaning the grease out of all their ductwork.- Oh, I see.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06So you're sort of like Bond crawling through air ducts.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08Crawling through all the ductworks, scraping it all out and that

0:06:08 > 0:06:09getting really dirty.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12You meet some Victorian children coming the other way.

0:06:12 > 0:06:16Now, Mark, what are you going to go for on this...?

0:06:16 > 0:06:20- I'm going to go for the fifth one down.- Yeah.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22A biological community,

0:06:22 > 0:06:25and I believe it's ecosystem.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Ecosystem, says Mark. Ecosystem.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30Let's see how many of our 100 people said ecosystem.

0:06:33 > 0:06:34It's right.

0:06:39 > 0:06:40Very good answer. 17. Well done, Mark.

0:06:40 > 0:06:44APPLAUSE

0:06:46 > 0:06:47Very well played, Mark.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50Yeah, the term didn't exist until 1935. Ecosystem.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Arthur Tansley coined it.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57- Nicola.- Hi. - A very warm welcome to Pointless.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59- Lovely to have you here.- Thank you.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02- What do you do?- I work for myself. I run a marketing company.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04So how did you start? Did you have a friend's business

0:07:04 > 0:07:06that you started doing marketing for?

0:07:06 > 0:07:10No, I just saved up some money, asked friends and family to

0:07:10 > 0:07:11help me out and just started on my own.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14I just wanted to do something different on my own.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16- Yeah, and nice to be working for yourself.- Yes.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18- I can come on shows like this. - Well, exactly.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20- You didn't have to lie to anyone to come here.- No.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22Not like everyone else. LAUGHTER

0:07:22 > 0:07:23They all pulled a sickie.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26Now, Nicola, what do you do when you're not working for yourself?

0:07:26 > 0:07:28I like to cycle, do long-distance cycling.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30I do it a lot with Marlene.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33- We do night rides for charity and things like that.- That's fun.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Night rides? So how far do you do in your night rides?

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Well, the longest one I've done so far is London to Brighton

0:07:38 > 0:07:40for cancer research.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43- We had to go up the Devil's Dyke. - Wow.- Was not nice.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45- Didn't appreciate that. - No, you wouldn't have done.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48Now, Nicola, what are you going to go for on this board?

0:07:48 > 0:07:51- We've got quite a high-ish score and quite a low-ish score.- Yeah.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54I'm hoping I'm right with a grassy plain, the second answer,

0:07:54 > 0:07:56with savanna.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59Savanna, says Nicola. Savanna. Let's see if that's right,

0:07:59 > 0:08:01let's see how many of our 100 people agree with Nicola.

0:08:03 > 0:08:04It is right.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Well, 66 is the highest score

0:08:06 > 0:08:07and you've passed that.

0:08:07 > 0:08:0850 is where you end up.

0:08:08 > 0:08:12APPLAUSE

0:08:13 > 0:08:14Well played, Nicola.

0:08:14 > 0:08:18Yeah, the Serengeti National Park is a famous savanna.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20- Also a girl's name.- It'd be a lovely girl's name, wouldn't it?

0:08:20 > 0:08:23- It is a girl's name.- Is it? - Well, in America, yeah. Savanna.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26- Oh, well, in America, lots of things are girls' names.- That is true.

0:08:26 > 0:08:27In America, omnivore is a name.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29Yeah. LAUGHTER

0:08:29 > 0:08:32There we are. Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34- Alison, a very warm welcome to you. - Thank you.

0:08:34 > 0:08:38- Now, you and John... You're from Glasgow.- I am.

0:08:38 > 0:08:42- And John's from Kingston. - Well, we both started in Richmond.

0:08:42 > 0:08:43What took you up to Glasgow?

0:08:43 > 0:08:48I got a job transfer, and it's cheaper living there.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51So how nice of you to have a little family reunion on Pointless.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53- Absolutely.- If you fancy having a chat between rounds,

0:08:53 > 0:08:56catching up at all, just you tuck in there.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59Now then, Alison, so what do you do?

0:08:59 > 0:09:02- I work for the Department for Work and Pensions.- I see.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04You say that quite sheepishly.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Well, I'm not sure how much I'm meant to say.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08Well, you've already said too much. LAUGHTER

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Now, Alison, that board is all yours.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13- If you wanted to go through it and fill in the blanks.- Yeah.

0:09:13 > 0:09:14Four unanswered.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17The ones I had chosen have both gone,

0:09:17 > 0:09:19which I thought might be better answers.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21The top one, I think, is predator.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24The next one is probably evergreen.

0:09:24 > 0:09:28The one next from bottom is desert.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31And the one right at the bottom, I think, would be extinct.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34But I will go for...

0:09:34 > 0:09:36the one at the top, predator.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Predator, says Alison.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41Let's see how far down the column you get with predator.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Eeh! 87.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49- Well...- They were all gone. - APPLAUSE

0:09:49 > 0:09:5187.

0:09:51 > 0:09:53I know. Very difficult to work out

0:09:53 > 0:09:55what's high-scoring and what's not on this board.

0:09:55 > 0:09:58And that's actually the highest scorer of all, 87 points.

0:09:58 > 0:10:01But I suspect a lot of people would've said the same thing.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04The Australian Museum in Sydney do a ranking system

0:10:04 > 0:10:07of Australia's most dangerous animals from one to ten.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09Do you know what their most dangerous animal is?

0:10:09 > 0:10:11- Human.- No. - LAUGHTER

0:10:11 > 0:10:13It is not a human.

0:10:13 > 0:10:16- Box jellyfish.- Oh, no, not in a box?

0:10:16 > 0:10:18No, it's just... Goodness me.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20It's just called a box jellyfish.

0:10:20 > 0:10:21- Oh, I see. Fine. OK. - Cos it looks like a box.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23- And it jumps out of boxes.- Oh, no!

0:10:23 > 0:10:26- All boxes. Cereal boxes anything. - Oh!

0:10:26 > 0:10:29Essentially, they are jellyfish that live in cereal boxes.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32- And if you open the cereal box, they kill you.- Wow.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34- So that's why they're so dangerous. - Yeah, they would be.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36- Because you don't expect it.- No.

0:10:36 > 0:10:37But most boxes, they're not in.

0:10:37 > 0:10:41- They're in about one in eight boxes. - LAUGHTER

0:10:41 > 0:10:42One in eight boxes will kill you.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44But seven in eight boxes won't kill you,

0:10:44 > 0:10:46and it's a nutritious breakfast.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Now, it's really hard to work out

0:10:48 > 0:10:50what's going to score high on this, isn't it?

0:10:50 > 0:10:52I would've thought predator wasn't a bad answer.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Evergreen would've scored you 72.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57Desert would've only scored 73.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00- I would've thought that would be way up there.- Surely.

0:11:00 > 0:11:01And extinct, actually quite a low score

0:11:01 > 0:11:04- on this board. 46.- Wow.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08- So, I would say that was unlucky with predator.- There we are.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.

0:11:11 > 0:11:1217, Mark. Look at that.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14That's just a ridiculously low score.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16So, Mark and Shirley looking very strong there.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19Then we travel up to 50 where we find Nicola and Marlene.

0:11:19 > 0:11:20And 66, Jenny and Sarah.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23Then up to 87, where we find Alison and John.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25So, yes, John, you'll get first dibs on the new board,

0:11:25 > 0:11:28so find a nice low score there and good luck with that.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30We're going to come back down the line now.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:11:34 > 0:11:37So, we're going to put seven more Earth Science-related clues

0:11:37 > 0:11:39up on the board, and here they are.

0:11:40 > 0:11:41We've got...

0:12:12 > 0:12:14I'm going to read those all one last time.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45- John, a warm welcome to Pointless. - Thank you.- Great to have you here.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48And great to have occasioned this family reunion.

0:12:48 > 0:12:49John, what do you do?

0:12:49 > 0:12:51Now, I'm a tour guide at Twickenham Stadium,

0:12:51 > 0:12:53which is a part-time job,

0:12:53 > 0:12:56and I also am a producer

0:12:56 > 0:12:59for my local talking newspaper for the blind.

0:12:59 > 0:13:00Good for you. That's fantastic.

0:13:00 > 0:13:04So, what's your favourite fact when you're showing people round?

0:13:04 > 0:13:09There's a painting in one of the VIP rooms which has a ghost in it,

0:13:09 > 0:13:11and we always ask kids

0:13:11 > 0:13:14the reason for why this ghost might be in there.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17Most of them say, "Oh, he was sent off,"

0:13:17 > 0:13:19or, "He was in the sin bin," or something.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22This is a painting from 1882 or something,

0:13:22 > 0:13:25so they don't quite get the historical significance.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27But apparently, it's because the artist who painted it

0:13:27 > 0:13:30was a portrait painter and people paid him,

0:13:30 > 0:13:31and this guy didn't pay his bill,

0:13:31 > 0:13:34so he painted him in and then painted him out.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36But he didn't finish the job, so there's a...

0:13:36 > 0:13:38- Wow. So he just took him out... He took him out.- Took him out.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41- Took him out.- Took him out of the picture, as they say.- Yeah.

0:13:41 > 0:13:42Wow.

0:13:42 > 0:13:47Now, John, what are the answers to these natural history clues?

0:13:47 > 0:13:51- We need a low score from you on this board.- We do, we do.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54I think I shall go for the third one down,

0:13:54 > 0:13:55which I think is biosphere.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57Biosphere, says John.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00That's the kind of answer we need from you at this point.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02A biosphere. Let's see if that's right,

0:14:02 > 0:14:04let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06No red line for you as you're the high-scorers.

0:14:08 > 0:14:09It's right.

0:14:12 > 0:14:13Well, 17's our lowest score so far.

0:14:13 > 0:14:1534 for biosphere.

0:14:15 > 0:14:19- APPLAUSE - 121 is your total.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22Good answer, John. Yeah, biosphere, it's essentially from...

0:14:22 > 0:14:24It's a few kilometres up into the atmosphere

0:14:24 > 0:14:28down to the deep sea vents of the ocean. That's the biosphere.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31If you go to a ball shop, you can biosphere.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33- LAUGHTER - Yes, you can.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36OK. Marlene, I'm sorry. Marlene, welcome to Pointless.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39Lovely to have you here. What do you do, Marlene?

0:14:39 > 0:14:42I'm a personal assistant for a finance director.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45- Enjoyable?- Yes. - Are you treated well?- I am, indeed.

0:14:45 > 0:14:46That's very good.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48Now, when did the bike thing bite you?

0:14:48 > 0:14:52- When did this...?- About 2012. - Right.- Yeah.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54And just out of nowhere, you just suddenly thought,

0:14:54 > 0:14:56"Actually, this is fun."

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Well, I decided that I was going to take a bicycle

0:14:58 > 0:15:00from the Ride to Work scheme.

0:15:00 > 0:15:01So I started cycling to work,

0:15:01 > 0:15:03and then I thought "I need to keep it up,"

0:15:03 > 0:15:06so I signed Nicola up for London to Brighton.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08I mean, wow, that's... ALEXANDER LAUGHS

0:15:08 > 0:15:10That's taking things rather extremely.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13- Have you done some serious long-distance bicycling...- Yes.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15since you did the London to Brighton?

0:15:15 > 0:15:16Yeah, we've done London-Cambridge,

0:15:16 > 0:15:19and we did the night ride around London,

0:15:19 > 0:15:23- and I did the Ride 100 last year. - Well done, you. That's brilliant.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25No, you really have got it, haven't you? Congratulations.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Well, there you are. You're on 50.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30If you can score 70 or less, you're into Round Two.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33- Marlene, what are you going to go for?- OK.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36Num...ber five, I'm going to go for reptile.

0:15:36 > 0:15:41OK, reptile. OK, reptile. Let's see if that's right.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43Here is your red line.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45If you can get below that with reptile,

0:15:45 > 0:15:47you are through to the next round.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52It's right.

0:15:52 > 0:15:53You are through.

0:15:53 > 0:15:54Oh, look at that. 60.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58- Oh, my gosh.- 110 is your total. APPLAUSE

0:15:59 > 0:16:02Yeah, there are over 6,000 species of reptile.

0:16:02 > 0:16:06- They exist on all continents apart from Antarctica.- Thank you.

0:16:06 > 0:16:10- Now, Shirley, welcome to Pointless. - Hi.- Lovely to have you here.

0:16:10 > 0:16:11What do you do, Shirley?

0:16:11 > 0:16:15I'm a barista for an independent coffee shop in Hartley Wintney.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18How many different types of coffee do you make in your shop?

0:16:18 > 0:16:20Probably...nine or ten.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23- Do you do cold coffees in the summer as well?- We do. Iced coffees.

0:16:23 > 0:16:24Oh! Very nice.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27What are your interests outside the coffee shop?

0:16:27 > 0:16:29I do a bit of metal detecting.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32I used to do Morris dancing, but I had to give it up.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34Why did you have to give it up?

0:16:34 > 0:16:37Playing 30 years of sport just did my knees.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40How delighted was Mark when you had to give up Morris dancing?

0:16:40 > 0:16:42LAUGHTER

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Quite gutted, actually. It was a good day out.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47Yeah, I bet, and almost always outside the pub as well.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49- It was.- Exactly.- Yeah. Very nice.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52- With sticks and bells and hankies. - Hankies, yeah. That's right.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55Ah! Very good.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Now, Shirley, what are you going to go for?

0:16:57 > 0:17:00You are currently on 17. Well done, Mark.

0:17:00 > 0:17:01It doesn't matter what you score,

0:17:01 > 0:17:04you are through to the next round even if you score 100.

0:17:04 > 0:17:05- So this is good news.- Right.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07I've looked at the board,

0:17:07 > 0:17:10and a couple of them look reasonably obvious,

0:17:10 > 0:17:13but I think I'm going to go for number four, which is deciduous.

0:17:13 > 0:17:17Deciduous. Deciduous, says Shirley. No red line, you're already through.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20But let's see how many of our 100 people said deciduous.

0:17:23 > 0:17:24It's right.

0:17:27 > 0:17:2852.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30APPLAUSE Very well done indeed.

0:17:30 > 0:17:3269 is your total.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35Well played. Can also apply to animals sometimes.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38So a deer's antlers are deciduous, for example.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41- Ah.- Yeah.- There you are. Thank you, Richard.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44- Sarah.- Hi.- Welcome back.- Thank you.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Now, remind us what you do, Sarah.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48I work part-time in a supermarket

0:17:48 > 0:17:51- and I also work as a massage therapist.- That's right.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Now, in the supermarket, you are in charge of tomatoes.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56Well, all fresh, but, yes...

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Oh, I see, so it's not just the tomatoes.

0:17:58 > 0:18:01Oh, no, fruit and veg, all the fresh meats, all the fresh bread.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04Did you think they have someone in supermarkets who's in charge of

0:18:04 > 0:18:06- each individual product? - Well, I didn't know.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08- LAUGHTER - Like, there's the tomato person.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11"What do you do?" "Oh, limes."

0:18:11 > 0:18:13- But... Well, yes, maybe.- Yeah.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15I want to talk to whoever is in charge of

0:18:15 > 0:18:18- breakfast cereals in Sydney because...- Oh, no, you don't.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20..that is...they've done a terrible job.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23And what are your hobbies, Sarah?

0:18:23 > 0:18:27My main one is my husband and I have a steam traction engine...

0:18:27 > 0:18:31- Do you?- Yes. Well, it's a family engine, but we take it out.

0:18:31 > 0:18:32But that takes a lot of upkeep?

0:18:32 > 0:18:34- Go to local rallies with it and things.- That's fun.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36What sort of speed does it go at?

0:18:36 > 0:18:39Oh, a grand total of about 5mph.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Excellent. Now, Sarah, you're on 66.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45- If you can score 54 or less...- Yeah. - ..you're into Round Two.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47Well, I can definitely do three of them,

0:18:47 > 0:18:50but it's the fourth one that will probably get us through

0:18:50 > 0:18:51and I'm not sure about it.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54But I'm going to have to risk that fourth one,

0:18:54 > 0:18:57which is the animal restricted to a certain place

0:18:57 > 0:18:59and I'm hoping it's endemic.

0:18:59 > 0:19:03- Endemic.- Yeah.- Endemic. Sounds good to me.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06There's your red line. How many of our 100 people said endemic?

0:19:09 > 0:19:11- It's right.- Yes. - Oh, phew.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14Oh, there we go. You are through.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17Not just through...

0:19:17 > 0:19:19APPLAUSE ..the lowest score of the round.

0:19:19 > 0:19:20Very well done indeed, Sarah.

0:19:20 > 0:19:2276 is your total.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28Yeah, Sarah comes to the rescue again there, Jenny.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31All three other answers on the board would've seen you going home.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33It's the only answer you could've given us that would've seen

0:19:33 > 0:19:35you through, so very well played.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37Now, carnivore is obviously the one at the top.

0:19:37 > 0:19:3971 points for that.

0:19:40 > 0:19:4276 points for habitat.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46- Have you got the bottom one?- Erm...

0:19:46 > 0:19:48THEY CHUCKLE

0:19:48 > 0:19:51It's fish. Guess what it scored.

0:19:51 > 0:19:52Oh, please 100.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55It would've scored you, if you'd said it...

0:19:55 > 0:19:5667 points.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS IN SURPRISE

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Wow. LAUGHTER

0:20:03 > 0:20:05That is 33% of our country.

0:20:05 > 0:20:11That's over 20 million people going, "F, something, something, H."

0:20:11 > 0:20:14LAUGHTER

0:20:14 > 0:20:16- There we are.- There it is. - Thank you very much, Richard.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18Well, at the end of our first round,

0:20:18 > 0:20:20the pair we have to send home with their high score of 121,

0:20:20 > 0:20:23I'm so sorry, John and Alison. Nothing wrong with your answers.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26We'll see you again next time. I'm quite sure you'll go much further.

0:20:26 > 0:20:29- Thanks very much indeed. John and Alison. BOTH:- Thank you.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32APPLAUSE

0:20:32 > 0:20:35But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:20:40 > 0:20:44Well done, everyone. Here we are in Round Two.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47Well, you've seen off one of the pairs already.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49At the end of this round, there'll be another pair leaving us.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Once again, Sarah, I have to commend you

0:20:51 > 0:20:55for your brilliant low score there, lowest score of the round.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57And, Mark and Shirley, well done, lowest team score as well.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Best of luck to all three pairs.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...

0:21:04 > 0:21:06The Royal family. Can you all decide in your pairs,

0:21:06 > 0:21:08who's going to go first, who's going to go second?

0:21:08 > 0:21:11And whoever's going to first, please step up to the podium.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16OK. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:21:16 > 0:21:21We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:21:27 > 0:21:29The top 25 women in line to the throne

0:21:29 > 0:21:32after the birth of Princess Charlotte. Richard.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Yeah, Princess Charlotte was born in May 2015,

0:21:34 > 0:21:36and even she got fish.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38LAUGHTER

0:21:38 > 0:21:42We are looking for any of the top 25 next women

0:21:42 > 0:21:44in line to the throne, please, after she was born.

0:21:44 > 0:21:48So, 25 women next in line to the throne after Princess Charlotte.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51- Very best of luck. - Thank you very much indeed.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Now, Jenny.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Erm...

0:21:58 > 0:22:01- Princess Eugenie. - Princess Eugenie.

0:22:01 > 0:22:02Princess Eugenie, says Jenny.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05Let's see if it's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:22:11 > 0:22:1561. APPLAUSE

0:22:15 > 0:22:19- 61.- Yeah, eighth in line to the throne, Princess Eugenie.

0:22:19 > 0:22:23- Works in an auction house in New York.- There you are.

0:22:23 > 0:22:25Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:22:25 > 0:22:26Shirley.

0:22:26 > 0:22:32Er, well, I think I'll go for the Princess Royal, Princess Anne.

0:22:32 > 0:22:33Princess Anne, says Shirley.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35Let's see if that's right, let's see

0:22:35 > 0:22:37how many of our 100 people said Princess Anne.

0:22:42 > 0:22:43- Oh.- 62.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46APPLAUSE

0:22:48 > 0:22:50Yeah, she's 12th in line to the throne, Princess Anne.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52Thank you very much indeed.

0:22:52 > 0:22:56Now, Marlene, who are the next women in line to the throne

0:22:56 > 0:22:58after Princess Charlotte?

0:22:58 > 0:23:01- Zara Phillips. - Zara Phillips, says Marlene.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04Let's see how many of our 100 people said Zara Phillips.

0:23:12 > 0:23:1338.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16APPLAUSE 38.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21Yeah, very well done. The daughter of Princess Anne, of course.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24- Zara Tindall, she is now. - Thanks very much.

0:23:24 > 0:23:25We're halfway through the round.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Let's look at those scores. 38.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30Very well done, Marlene. Best score of that pass was yours.

0:23:30 > 0:23:31Then up to 61, where we find Jenny and Sarah.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33Then 62, Shirley and Mark.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36You're ahead, Mark, so we need a low score from you.

0:23:36 > 0:23:37Best of luck with that.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40It's going to get quite interesting as we come back down the line,

0:23:40 > 0:23:41which we are now going to do.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43So could the second players please step up to the podium?

0:23:46 > 0:23:49So, Nicola, remember, we are looking for the name of

0:23:49 > 0:23:54any of the top 25 women in line to the throne after Princess Charlotte.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57I'm going to go for Eugenie's sister, Princess Beatrice.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59Princess Beatrice, says Nicola.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02Good move. Princess Beatrice. There's your red line.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05If you get below that, you're through to the head-to-head.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08Let's see how many of our 100 people said Princess Beatrice.

0:24:10 > 0:24:11It's right.

0:24:13 > 0:24:14- Ooh!- 71.

0:24:14 > 0:24:18APPLAUSE 71 takes your total up to 109.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22Yeah, seventh in line to the throne, Princess Beatrice.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24I've sensed we've used up the obvious ones.

0:24:24 > 0:24:26- Yeah, I think we have now.- Yeah.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29OK. Now, Mark.

0:24:29 > 0:24:33Yeah, the Royal family definitely isn't my strong point.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35There's two names I had in mind,

0:24:35 > 0:24:37but Princess Margaret.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Princess Margaret. Here is your red line.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42You'd have to get below that to get through to the head-to-head,

0:24:42 > 0:24:43but you'd have to be right first.

0:24:43 > 0:24:47So let's see how many of our 100 people said Princess Margaret.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51I'm afraid no longer.

0:24:51 > 0:24:54- Is she?- That scores 100 points.

0:24:54 > 0:24:55Take the total up to

0:24:55 > 0:24:57162, Mark.

0:24:57 > 0:25:01Yeah, right family, but, yeah, she died in 2002, Princess Margaret.

0:25:01 > 0:25:04Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:25:04 > 0:25:07Now, Sarah, over to you.

0:25:07 > 0:25:10The good news is you're through. Doesn't matter if you score 100.

0:25:10 > 0:25:15I'm just going to have to pick a name and hope it's part of the line.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18Lady Victoria Hervey.

0:25:18 > 0:25:21Lady Victoria Hervey. OK, well, let's see.

0:25:21 > 0:25:23There's no red line for you, you're already through.

0:25:23 > 0:25:26But Lady Victoria Hervey, we shall see if she features on that list.

0:25:26 > 0:25:27Does she?

0:25:30 > 0:25:31No, she doesn't.

0:25:31 > 0:25:34- Scores you 100 points.- Oh, well. - Takes your total up to 161.

0:25:34 > 0:25:35Through you go anyhow.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38The daughter of the Marquess of Bristol, Lady Victoria Hervey.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41Sounds like she's in the top 25 in line to the throne, but not.

0:25:41 > 0:25:44- I bet you know a few. - I would go for Lady Sarah Chatto.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47- Lady Sarah Chatto would've scored you 3 points.- There we are.

0:25:47 > 0:25:48Would've scored you 3 points.

0:25:48 > 0:25:50Lots of pointless answers on this list.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52Let's take a look at them.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55They're all children of someone or other.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57Don't make me go through every single one of them.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06Margarita Armstrong-Jones - one of yours.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08LAUGHTER

0:26:11 > 0:26:12I know she's not.

0:26:12 > 0:26:15Oh, look! Savannah. Savannah Phillips.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17You also could've had Omnivore Phillips.

0:26:17 > 0:26:19- Was also a pointless answer. - LAUGHTER

0:26:19 > 0:26:21Well done if you said that.

0:26:21 > 0:26:22Maud Windsor, Zenouska Mowatt.

0:26:22 > 0:26:25You also could've had Estella Taylor, Flora Ogilvy,

0:26:25 > 0:26:29Lady Amelia Windsor, Lyla Gillman and Senna Lewis.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32All of those were pointless answers. We've had the top four, actually.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35The first four answers we were given were the top four biggest scorers.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38Lady Louise Windsor would've been a very good answer.

0:26:38 > 0:26:39Would've scored you 3.

0:26:39 > 0:26:422 points for Princess Alexandra, 2 points for Mia Tindall.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44Would've also been a very good answer. Zara and Mike's daughter.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47Lady Helen Taylor, Isla Phillips and Lady Davina Lewis

0:26:47 > 0:26:48would've scored you 1 point.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50And that's all 25.

0:26:50 > 0:26:52Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:26:52 > 0:26:53So at the end of our second round,

0:26:53 > 0:26:56the pair who are heading home with their high score of 162,

0:26:56 > 0:26:58I'm sorry, Mark and Shirley, it is you.

0:26:58 > 0:27:01We will see you again next time. Look forward to that very much.

0:27:01 > 0:27:03In the meantime, thanks very much, Mark and Shirley.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06APPLAUSE

0:27:06 > 0:27:09But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17Very well done, Nicola and Marlene, Sarah and Jenny.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19You're now one step closer to the final

0:27:19 > 0:27:21and a chance to play for our jackpot,

0:27:21 > 0:27:24which currently stands at £1,000.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26Well, from here on in, you play as a team.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28You can chat before you give your answers.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31The first pair to win two questions will be playing for the jackpot.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33Well, well done. Both newcomers to the head-to-head.

0:27:33 > 0:27:37Sarah and Jenny, we said goodbye to you in Round Two last time.

0:27:37 > 0:27:42But Nicola and Marlene, straight in. Just swanning through the game.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45Here you are, our low-scorers, our golden couple in the head-to-head.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56Here comes your first question, and it concerns...

0:27:59 > 0:28:01Egg dishes.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03Yeah, we're going to show you five pictures now

0:28:03 > 0:28:05of dishes which contain an egg as one of the ingredients.

0:28:05 > 0:28:08Can you tell us what they are, please?

0:28:08 > 0:28:10- I do like an egg. - You like an egg, do you?- Mm.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12And I would like an egg as well, actually. I'm starving.

0:28:12 > 0:28:15That's good to know. I will notify CNN.

0:28:15 > 0:28:19- "Armstrong Likes Egg..."- Good. - ..will be their headline.- Yeah.

0:28:19 > 0:28:21- We'll chat more about this.- Yeah.

0:28:21 > 0:28:24Let's reveal our five pictures of eggs, and here they come.

0:28:26 > 0:28:28Oh, look at that.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31I'm starving. LAUGHTER

0:28:31 > 0:28:33That couldn't have been a...

0:28:33 > 0:28:34Oh... There's B.

0:28:36 > 0:28:37Mm-mm.

0:28:58 > 0:29:02There we are. Five dishes made from egg.

0:29:02 > 0:29:05Nicola and Marlene, you're our low-scorers, so you'll go first.

0:29:05 > 0:29:08- ..is going to be the lowest one. - No.

0:29:08 > 0:29:10..going to be the lowest one. More than...

0:29:10 > 0:29:13- What's that B one?- Meringue.

0:29:13 > 0:29:16- No, B. What's B? - Something I don't know.

0:29:16 > 0:29:19- Quiche...- Key lime pie.

0:29:19 > 0:29:21- I'd go with it.- Yeah?

0:29:21 > 0:29:25All right. They all seem quite obvious, with the exception of B.

0:29:25 > 0:29:27But we're going to go for C,

0:29:27 > 0:29:28Key lime pie.

0:29:28 > 0:29:33Key lime pie, say Nicola and Marlene. Key lime pie.

0:29:33 > 0:29:35Jenny and Sarah.

0:29:35 > 0:29:37Do you want to talk us through that board?

0:29:37 > 0:29:40We think we know all of them apart from B.

0:29:40 > 0:29:44A - quiche, E - meringue,

0:29:44 > 0:29:46D, I'm not sure how you pronounce it,

0:29:46 > 0:29:47but it's the one we'd like to go with.

0:29:47 > 0:29:50- Nicoise salad.- Nicoise salad.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53So we have Key lime pie and Nicoise salad.

0:29:53 > 0:29:55Now, Nicola and Marlene said Key lime pie.

0:29:55 > 0:29:58Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people got that for C.

0:30:01 > 0:30:02It's right.

0:30:05 > 0:30:0772 for Key lime pie. Popular. APPLAUSE

0:30:09 > 0:30:13Sarah and Jenny meanwhile have gone for Nicoise salad.

0:30:13 > 0:30:15Let's see if that's right for D. Let's see how many people said it.

0:30:17 > 0:30:19It's right.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21And it wins you the point.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25APPLAUSE 38.

0:30:25 > 0:30:29Very well done. After one question, Sarah and Jenny are up 1-0.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31Let's take a look at all of these answers.

0:30:31 > 0:30:33A is quiche.

0:30:33 > 0:30:36- This is a proper big scorer. 95. - Look at that.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38Just the way they put anchovies on top there.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40They didn't need to do that. That's just...

0:30:40 > 0:30:42- You think that spoils it? - No, no, it's me.

0:30:42 > 0:30:45- It's just my mouth is now... - Oh, you'd also like Nicoise salad.

0:30:45 > 0:30:48- They have anchovies in as well. - Mm, yeah.- It's all anchovies.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50And we know what anchovies are.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52It's F, blank, blank, H.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55LAUGHTER

0:30:55 > 0:30:56B is the best answer.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59- Huevos rancheros. - Huevos rancheros. Exactly.

0:30:59 > 0:31:02- Would've scored you 12 points.- Ah.

0:31:03 > 0:31:07And E. It's not meringue, but 58 of while 100 said meringue,

0:31:07 > 0:31:10but meringue's got too few letters.

0:31:10 > 0:31:12It is...

0:31:12 > 0:31:13mayonnaise.

0:31:13 > 0:31:15- Oh!- Would've scored 15.

0:31:15 > 0:31:18There we go. Mm.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20I was liking that when it was meringue just as much as

0:31:20 > 0:31:23I'm liking it now it's mayonnaise. Oh!

0:31:23 > 0:31:26Thanks very much indeed, Richard. So, here comes your second question.

0:31:26 > 0:31:29Nicola and Marlene, you have to win this one to stay in the game.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31So best of luck. It concerns...

0:31:36 > 0:31:38Capital cities made from chemical symbols. Richard.

0:31:38 > 0:31:40We have done this sort of thing before.

0:31:40 > 0:31:43We're going to give you some lists of elements now

0:31:43 > 0:31:45and if you put all of their symbols together,

0:31:45 > 0:31:48they spell out the name of capital cities.

0:31:48 > 0:31:52Can you give us the most obscure of those capital cities, please?

0:31:52 > 0:31:53This is just brilliant.

0:31:53 > 0:31:57- Well, you say brilliant. Difficult. - Difficult.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00There we go. Difficult but very rewarding, I think.

0:32:00 > 0:32:02OK, here are our clues. Five of them.

0:32:19 > 0:32:20I'll read those all again.

0:32:33 > 0:32:36So, yes, Sarah and Jenny, will go first.

0:32:36 > 0:32:39I don't have the confidence to do the fourth one,

0:32:39 > 0:32:41but I can do all the others.

0:32:41 > 0:32:47- Tell me.- I reckon Baku is the second one down because of the K in it.

0:32:47 > 0:32:49- Do you want to say it? - Yeah, over to you.

0:32:49 > 0:32:52Baku. Is that it how you say it?

0:32:52 > 0:32:57OK, we're confident we can do three, we think we can do four.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00We're going to go for the second one down

0:33:00 > 0:33:04which is Baku. B-A-K-U.

0:33:04 > 0:33:07Baku. Baku, say Sarah and Jenny.

0:33:07 > 0:33:10Now then, Nicola and Marlene.

0:33:10 > 0:33:12We don't know any of them.

0:33:12 > 0:33:17But I think we should go for the first one.

0:33:17 > 0:33:20- I think it's Cairo.- OK, Cairo.

0:33:20 > 0:33:22So we have Baku and we have Cairo.

0:33:22 > 0:33:24Sarah and Jenny said Baku. Let's see if that's right,

0:33:24 > 0:33:27let's see how many of our 100 people said Baku.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31- It's right.- Good.

0:33:35 > 0:33:37Oh, that's a good answer. Look at that.

0:33:37 > 0:33:3918. Very well done indeed. APPLAUSE

0:33:39 > 0:33:40Very well done. Baku.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45Nicola and Marlene have gone for Cairo. Let's see if that's right,

0:33:45 > 0:33:48let's see how many of our 100 people said that for the first one.

0:33:50 > 0:33:51It is right.

0:33:55 > 0:33:57- Oh.- 36.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59APPLAUSE

0:33:59 > 0:34:03Two very good answers there, but Sarah and Jenny, you win that one.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05Which means, after only two questions,

0:34:05 > 0:34:07you're straight through to the final 2-0.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09Yeah, good answer. Baku, very good answer.

0:34:09 > 0:34:13Ba then K then U, as you see there.

0:34:13 > 0:34:14How are you on the rest of these?

0:34:14 > 0:34:19- I haven't really been...- To school. - ..to... Yeah.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21LAUGHTER I haven't...

0:34:21 > 0:34:24Wait a minute, wait a minute.

0:34:24 > 0:34:26- I've got the third one. - OK. Which is?

0:34:26 > 0:34:28- Athens.- Athens. Exactly.

0:34:28 > 0:34:32It is At He N S. Athens.

0:34:32 > 0:34:3424 points for that.

0:34:34 > 0:34:36The next one down is the best answer on the board.

0:34:36 > 0:34:39The bottom one might be slightly easier.

0:34:39 > 0:34:43- Ah, yes, tungsten is W, isn't it? - It is, yes.- Moscow. There we go.

0:34:43 > 0:34:47That's Mo Sc O W. Wolfram is the other name for tungsten.

0:34:47 > 0:34:4927 for that.

0:34:49 > 0:34:54And this last one is the capital of Kazakhstan.

0:34:54 > 0:34:58- And it's Astana.- Ah.- As Ta Na.

0:34:58 > 0:35:002 points for that. Very well done if you got that at home.

0:35:00 > 0:35:01Thank you very much indeed.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round

0:35:04 > 0:35:06are Nicola and Marlene, I'm sorry to say.

0:35:06 > 0:35:08Brilliant performance right across the show.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11It's lovely for us cos it means we get to see you again next time,

0:35:11 > 0:35:14otherwise we'd have to say goodbye if you'd gone through to the final.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17We look forward to that very much. Very well done indeed.

0:35:17 > 0:35:18Nicola and Marlene.

0:35:18 > 0:35:22- APPLAUSE - We did well.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24But for Sarah and Jenny, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30Very well done, Sarah and Jenny.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32You've seen off all the competition

0:35:32 > 0:35:35and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:40 > 0:35:42You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,

0:35:42 > 0:35:45and at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,000.

0:35:45 > 0:35:46There it is.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48Well, what a strong performance.

0:35:48 > 0:35:502-0 in the head-to-head. No arguing with that.

0:35:50 > 0:35:53Absolutely fantastic performance there.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56Anything you'd particularly like to see come up in this last round?

0:35:56 > 0:36:00Personally, possibly Shakespeare, snooker.

0:36:00 > 0:36:02Jenny?

0:36:02 > 0:36:04- Soaps. - LAUGHTER

0:36:04 > 0:36:05My specialist subject.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08Well, let's just cross our fingers and hope something up on that board

0:36:08 > 0:36:10looks like something you would want to answer.

0:36:10 > 0:36:12Today's selection looks like this.

0:36:21 > 0:36:25We could do, between us, children's poetry.

0:36:25 > 0:36:29And jazz albums, I doubt, new year, no.

0:36:29 > 0:36:32Rugby, if it's going to be down to me, I'm not that confident.

0:36:32 > 0:36:35- Do you want to go with the poetry? - Go with children's poetry.

0:36:35 > 0:36:38- We'll try the children's poetry, please.- Children's poetry, it is.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40Richard.

0:36:40 > 0:36:43OK, we're looking for any word of six letters or more

0:36:43 > 0:36:45in any of the following three poems, please.

0:36:45 > 0:36:49So any word of six letters or more in any of the following three poems.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52No hyphenated words allowed and nothing from the titles either.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54Let's take a look at the poems.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07So we're looking for any words of six letters or more

0:37:07 > 0:37:10in any of those three poems. Very best of luck.

0:37:10 > 0:37:12Thank you very much indeed.

0:37:12 > 0:37:14So, as always, you've got up to one minute

0:37:14 > 0:37:15to come up with three answers.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17All you need to win that jackpot

0:37:17 > 0:37:19is for just one of your answers to be pointless.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22- Are you ready?- We're ready? - Yes.- Right.

0:37:22 > 0:37:25OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.

0:37:25 > 0:37:27Your time starts now.

0:37:27 > 0:37:28The Owl And The Pussy-cat,

0:37:28 > 0:37:32the only one I can think of is "..with a runcible spoon."

0:37:32 > 0:37:35- So runcible could be... - Runcible, yeah.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37The Walrus And The Carpenter,

0:37:37 > 0:37:40the only line I can think is,

0:37:40 > 0:37:43"The further off from England, the nearer is to Rome."

0:37:43 > 0:37:46- So maybe we could have further. - Further, yeah.

0:37:46 > 0:37:49I'm trying to think of words that don't stand out rather than...

0:37:49 > 0:37:51What else do you want to go with?

0:37:51 > 0:37:53Erm...

0:37:54 > 0:37:56Wrapped. Wrapped. Is wrapped in The Owl And The Pussy-cat?

0:37:56 > 0:37:59INDISTINCT SPEECH

0:37:59 > 0:38:00No, they're all quite short in that.

0:38:00 > 0:38:04- Is wrapped in The Owl And The Pussy-cat?- Is what?- Wrapped?

0:38:04 > 0:38:06Possibly, yeah. Try that.

0:38:06 > 0:38:09- I think...- "The Owl and the pussy-cat got in a..."

0:38:09 > 0:38:10- It's got wrapped in it.- Right.

0:38:10 > 0:38:12Do you want to go with those?

0:38:12 > 0:38:14We're just going to panic if we think.

0:38:14 > 0:38:16We've got a trophy. It's OK, we've got a trophy.

0:38:16 > 0:38:18OK. We have our three.

0:38:18 > 0:38:21- Ten seconds. Are you happy now?- Yes. - Shall we stop the clock?- Yep.

0:38:21 > 0:38:23OK, we can stop the clock there.

0:38:25 > 0:38:27What are your three answers?

0:38:27 > 0:38:29- Go for it.- Wrapped...- Wrapped...

0:38:29 > 0:38:32- ..and...- Runcible...- ..runcible...

0:38:32 > 0:38:34- ..and further. - ..and further.

0:38:34 > 0:38:36- Can you say which poem each one is from?- Sorry.

0:38:36 > 0:38:39- The Owl And The Pussy-cat.- Wrapped from The Owl And The Pussy-cat.

0:38:39 > 0:38:42- Runcible... - From The Owl And The Pussy-cat.

0:38:42 > 0:38:44- And further... - The Walrus And The Carpenter.

0:38:44 > 0:38:47The Walrus And The Carpenter. Of those three,

0:38:47 > 0:38:49which is your best shot at a pointless answer, do you think?

0:38:49 > 0:38:52Probably yours, actually. Wrapped.

0:38:52 > 0:38:55- Wrapped, if it's right.- OK, wrapped.

0:38:55 > 0:38:56Least likely to be pointless?

0:38:56 > 0:39:00Further, because I'm not absolutely certain it's that poem.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02OK, further we shall put first.

0:39:02 > 0:39:04OK, well, let's put those up on the board in that order, then,

0:39:04 > 0:39:05and here they are.

0:39:05 > 0:39:07We have got...

0:39:09 > 0:39:11Well, three very good answers there.

0:39:11 > 0:39:14Let's hope one of those is pointless and will win you that jackpot.

0:39:14 > 0:39:18What would you do with your £1,000 between you? Sarah?

0:39:18 > 0:39:21Well, in addition to that traction engine,

0:39:21 > 0:39:24we also have a 1951 Land Rover,

0:39:24 > 0:39:26which is well overdue of a spruce up.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29- Probably go towards that.- OK.

0:39:29 > 0:39:30Jenny, how about you?

0:39:30 > 0:39:33- A lovely holiday with Molly and Jacob.- Lovely.

0:39:33 > 0:39:37OK. Well, best of luck. Your first answer was further.

0:39:37 > 0:39:39In this case, we were looking for words

0:39:39 > 0:39:41from The Walrus And The Carpenter.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43Let's see if it's right, let's see if it's pointless.

0:39:43 > 0:39:47If it's both of those things, it'll win you £1,000. Further.

0:39:51 > 0:39:52- Wrong poem.- Bad luck.

0:39:52 > 0:39:54OK, that was your first answer out the way.

0:39:54 > 0:39:56You weren't really sure about further.

0:39:56 > 0:39:58It was holding a place, I would say, there.

0:39:58 > 0:40:00Only two more shots at today's jackpot.

0:40:00 > 0:40:02Your next answer was runcible.

0:40:02 > 0:40:04In this case, we were looking for words

0:40:04 > 0:40:05from The Owl And The Pussy-cat.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07If it is pointless, it'll win you £1,000.

0:40:07 > 0:40:09Let's see how many people said runcible.

0:40:12 > 0:40:13It's right.

0:40:13 > 0:40:17Your first answer, further, was incorrect.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19But runcible is absolutely on the money.

0:40:19 > 0:40:20Down it goes. Through the 20s,

0:40:20 > 0:40:22into the teens, into single figures.

0:40:22 > 0:40:23Down it goes. Still going down.

0:40:23 > 0:40:254 for runcible.

0:40:25 > 0:40:28APPLAUSE DROWNS OUT SPEECH

0:40:29 > 0:40:32APPLAUSE DROWNS OUT SPEECH

0:40:32 > 0:40:33Only 4 for runcible,

0:40:33 > 0:40:36which means you only have one more shot at today's jackpot.

0:40:36 > 0:40:39Everything is now riding on wrapped.

0:40:39 > 0:40:41That was your third and final answer.

0:40:41 > 0:40:43The one you thought was your best shot at a pointless answer.

0:40:43 > 0:40:45If it's pointless, it'll win you £1,000.

0:40:45 > 0:40:48Let's see how many of our 100 people said wrapped.

0:40:50 > 0:40:52- Well, it's right. - Well done.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54Further was incorrect.

0:40:54 > 0:40:56Your second answer, runcible,

0:40:56 > 0:40:58took us all the way down to 4.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01Wrapped now taking us down through...

0:41:01 > 0:41:03Ooh! Bad luck.

0:41:03 > 0:41:0613. APPLAUSE

0:41:06 > 0:41:09Well, two very good answers there. But I'm afraid you didn't manage

0:41:09 > 0:41:11to find that all-important pointless answer.

0:41:11 > 0:41:14So, I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £1,000.

0:41:14 > 0:41:15That will roll over onto the next show.

0:41:15 > 0:41:19It's been brilliant having you on both shows, very strong performance.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21And I'm delighted you came through to the final.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23And you get a Pointless trophy each to take home with you.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25- That's what we came for.- Good.

0:41:30 > 0:41:32Yeah, with further, I think maybe you were thinking of

0:41:32 > 0:41:35another Lewis Carroll poem. Not in The Walrus And The Carpenter.

0:41:35 > 0:41:38Let's take a look at the pointless answers in the different poems.

0:41:38 > 0:41:41Let's start with The Owl And The Pussy-cat.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43"They danced by the light of the moon," of course.

0:41:43 > 0:41:45Danced would've been a pointless answer.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47Lovely and willing, pointless answers.

0:41:47 > 0:41:49Those are the only pointless answers there.

0:41:49 > 0:41:52Let's take a look now at A Visit From St Nicholas.

0:41:52 > 0:41:55That's the one that starts, "'Twas the night before Christmas

0:41:55 > 0:41:56and all through the house..."

0:41:56 > 0:41:59Dimples, Donner, one of the reindeer, was a pointless answer.

0:41:59 > 0:42:02It's the only reindeer that was a pointless answer.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04"And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof

0:42:04 > 0:42:07"the prancing and pawing of each little hoof."

0:42:07 > 0:42:09Prancing, twinkling and pawing all pointless answers.

0:42:09 > 0:42:12Very well done if you said any of those.

0:42:12 > 0:42:14And The Walrus And The Carpenter.

0:42:14 > 0:42:17I have to say, I don't really know The Walrus And The Carpenter.

0:42:17 > 0:42:19All I can tell you was the biggest scorer was cabbages.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21That's all I know about that poem.

0:42:21 > 0:42:25Butter, frothy, overhead and vinegar were all pointless.

0:42:25 > 0:42:27- Sounds like a good poem.- Mm!

0:42:27 > 0:42:31Trying to think of rhymes for frothy or vinegar. Very impressive.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34Very well done if you got any of those pointless answers at home,

0:42:34 > 0:42:35and unlucky in the studio.

0:42:35 > 0:42:38- It's been lovely having you here. - Thanks very much, Richard.

0:42:38 > 0:42:40Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you,

0:42:40 > 0:42:42but it's been wonderful having you on the show.

0:42:42 > 0:42:44Thank you so much for coming along.

0:42:44 > 0:42:46Sarah and Jenny. Wonderful contestants.

0:42:49 > 0:42:52Well, Sarah and Jenny very sadly didn't win our jackpot today,

0:42:52 > 0:42:54which means it rolls over onto the next show

0:42:54 > 0:42:56when we will be playing for £2,000.

0:42:56 > 0:42:58Join us next time to see if someone can win it.

0:42:58 > 0:43:00- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
