0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong
0:00:24 > 0:00:26and welcome to Pointless, the show where all
0:00:26 > 0:00:28the questions have been asked to 100 people before the show.
0:00:28 > 0:00:31All our contestants have to do is come up with the answers
0:00:31 > 0:00:34no-one else could think of. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Couple number one.
0:00:40 > 0:00:41Hello, my name is James.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44This is my mother, Corrine. We are from Stroud in Gloucestershire.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Couple number two.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Hi, I'm Vicky. This is my boyfriend, Mike.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50- We currently live in Manchester. - Couple number three.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Hi, I'm Franklyn. This is my friend, Rhiannon.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54- We are from West Yorkshire. - And finally, couple number four.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56Hi, I'm Billy. This is my friend, Craig.
0:00:56 > 0:00:57We're from Liverpool.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59And these are today's contestants.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01APPLAUSE
0:01:01 > 0:01:04Thanks very much, all of you. A very warm welcome. Four newcomers here.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07We'll find out more about each of you throughout the show
0:01:07 > 0:01:10as it goes along. So that just leaves one more person for me to
0:01:10 > 0:01:12introduce. Whenever he gets too big for his boots,
0:01:12 > 0:01:14we remind him that his agent's only other clients are a
0:01:14 > 0:01:17dancing Russian grizzly bear and 50% of The Cheeky Girls.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20- It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:20 > 0:01:21Hi, everybody.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26- Good afternoon. - Good afternoon to you.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28- As you say, four new pairs. - I know.- I know.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30That's quite scary for us.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31First time for a long while we've had that.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35- It really is. It's weird. It's like starting at a new school.- Isn't it?
0:01:35 > 0:01:37And they are in charge. There is more of them than us.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40I'm trying to work out who the bully is.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43Corrine. Yeah, pointing to herself. Yeah, I suspect so.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Quite often when we have four new pairs that coincides with
0:01:45 > 0:01:48- the jackpot being down to £1,000. But not this time.- No.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50- That's the nice thing.- That is nice.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52And also because we've got four new pairs, I think
0:01:52 > 0:01:55I might have gone mad with question two.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58- Oh, really?- Yeah, a little bit. It's an unusual one.- Mm.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01It's kind of...quite straight but at the same time,
0:02:01 > 0:02:03like I've lost my mind.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06I can't wait. Thank you very much indeed.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09You will have gathered Kerrie and Jon didn't win the jackpot
0:02:09 > 0:02:11last time. So we will add another £1,000 to that.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15Today's jackpot starts off at £3,000. There we are.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18APPLAUSE
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Right, if everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29There is only one rule to Pointless and it's this.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31The pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:31 > 0:02:33will be eliminated. That's all there is.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36Remember that and you'll do perfectly well.
0:02:36 > 0:02:37Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Our first category this afternoon is...
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Can you all decide in your pairs who'll go first
0:02:43 > 0:02:45and who will go second.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53OK, and the question concerns...
0:02:56 > 0:03:00- Richard.- Did you see Billy and Craig doing scissors-paper-stone there?
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- Yeah.- That's a first. - Yeah, Craig went for stone there.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06- Was it stone that won, I didn't see? - Yeah, Billy took scissors.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Scissors never win.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Scissors never... They do sometimes. Otherwise the game wouldn't work.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15I always think the person who goes stone is the person who
0:03:15 > 0:03:16forgot to make their mind up.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Yes, that's very true. They thought it was five and it was three.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21- Yeah.- Anyway, that aside. On each board,
0:03:21 > 0:03:23we're going to show you the names of seven UK number one albums.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25We've missed out the last word from each.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Can you fill in that word, please?
0:03:27 > 0:03:2914 in all to have a go at at home. Very best of luck.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31OK. We're looking for the missing word from each of these
0:03:31 > 0:03:34album titles. And here's our first board of seven.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36We have...
0:03:49 > 0:03:51I'll read those all one last time.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Corrine, a warm welcome to Pointless.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06It's lovely to have you here from Stroud in Gloucestershire.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08- Yes.- And what do you do, Corrine?
0:04:08 > 0:04:13I'm an installations manager for a kitchen company.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15So I run all the sub-contractors.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19- I see. Do you have a shop?- We have a big showroom.- A showroom.- Yes.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21And are you there at all or are you backstage?
0:04:21 > 0:04:23I'm there in the showroom, seeing customers.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24Do you show people around?
0:04:24 > 0:04:26- Yes.- That's quite fun. I imagine people get...
0:04:26 > 0:04:28No-one's going to have a miserable time
0:04:28 > 0:04:30- planning their kitchen, are they? - No.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33No. Although there's an awful lot more to it than people think.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- They've got to pay for it as well. - Yes.- There's that side to it.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39- Yes.- But you're not in charge of that?- No. I'm not. Thank goodness.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Thank goodness.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43And answer me honestly, your kitchen at home,
0:04:43 > 0:04:46- was that done by the same people for whom you work?- No.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49No. I have a landlord so he wouldn't pay for one of my kitchens.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Oh, I see. I thought for a moment you were going to go,
0:04:51 > 0:04:53"No, not in a million years would I have one of those."
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Oh, I would. I would.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Ah, now, Corrine.- Mm.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00How are you liking this first round?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Um...ish.
0:05:02 > 0:05:03You're in at the deep end there.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07I think a few of them will have quite high scores, actually.
0:05:07 > 0:05:12And I think I'm going to say Shepherd Moon, Enya.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Shepherd Moon, Enya. Shepherd Moon.
0:05:15 > 0:05:16Let's see if it's right.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Let's see how many of our 100 people agree with Corrine.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Oh, no!
0:05:23 > 0:05:27Oh, I'm so sorry, Corrine.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29I'm so sorry. That's 100 points.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33I'm afraid Shepherd Moon, the column didn't like it.
0:05:33 > 0:05:34Sorry, Corrine.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37I'll give all the correct answers at the end of the pass.
0:05:37 > 0:05:38Thank you, Richard.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Now, Mike, a warm welcome to Pointless to you as well.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44- What do you do, Mike? - I'm a shift leader at a pub chain.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46- A shift leader?- Yeah. - Now that's fun.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47What actually does that mean?
0:05:47 > 0:05:52It's basically just being in charge of normal bar associates, just...
0:05:52 > 0:05:56Bar associates? The whole terminology's changed.
0:05:56 > 0:05:57What's a bar associate?
0:05:57 > 0:06:00A bar associate is just a standard worker person who serves...
0:06:00 > 0:06:01Behind the bar?
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- Serves food.- I see. And you're a shift leader?- I'm a shift leader.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06How long is your shift?
0:06:06 > 0:06:09It can be anything from eight hours to maybe 12-plus.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11No! 12... 12 hours?
0:06:11 > 0:06:13What are you on, a ferry? What is it?
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- No, just a pub chain.- A normal pub chain?- A normal pub chain, yeah.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18I see. How long have you done that?
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Overall, about three and a half years now.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Good to be shift leader. What's the next rung?
0:06:22 > 0:06:24What do you want to be after shift leader?
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Next is a shift manager, but I do want to go into like, brewing,
0:06:28 > 0:06:29or a brewery of some sort.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Mm. I thought Shepherd Moon sounded a bit like a good brewery.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34- Mm.- Thank you.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Now, Mike, what are your interests
0:06:36 > 0:06:38when you're not working on your shift?
0:06:38 > 0:06:40- I like wrestling. - LAUGHING: OK, that's good.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43- I like wrestling. - That doesn't come up a lot.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Yeah, if that comes up, I'm pretty good.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48- Any of your shifts get out of line, quite useful as well.- Yes.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Very good. Now, Mike, what are you going to go for on our board?
0:06:51 > 0:06:54The only one I really know is the Robbie Williams one, which is
0:06:54 > 0:06:56- Sing When You're Winning. - Sing When You're Winning.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58OK, let's see how many of our 100 people said
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Sing When You're Winning.
0:07:06 > 0:07:0739.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09APPLAUSE
0:07:09 > 0:07:1139. Not bad at all, Mike.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Yeah, it's his third number one album.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16He's had 11 albums in all, Robbie Williams.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18I hate that thing, do you, when you're in a pub
0:07:18 > 0:07:22- and you're desperately trying to get the bar associate's eye.- Oh!
0:07:22 > 0:07:24That takes forever sometimes.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26You just think, "There's three bar associates here.
0:07:26 > 0:07:27"Surely one of them can see me?"
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Surely one of the bar associates could... Yeah.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34Can't we just put some more bar associates on? Surely.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Yeah. Thank you very much indeed. Rhiannon.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Welcome to Pointless. Lovely to have you here from West Yorkshire.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41What do you do, Rhiannon?
0:07:41 > 0:07:43I work in medical records at the local hospital.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Very good indeed. How long have you been doing that?
0:07:46 > 0:07:47Nearly five years now.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49What are your hobbies?
0:07:49 > 0:07:55I play the flute. I sew. I like to sew cross-stitch.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59I like to cook, read, just boring things.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01- Let's just go back to the flute though.- Yeah.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Have you played it all your life?
0:08:03 > 0:08:05- I've played it a few years, yeah. - And you've kept it up.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Do you play solo? Do you play in a group with people?
0:08:08 > 0:08:10No, I just have private lessons at the moment.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Good for you. That's fun. That's good.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Do you do exams or is that all behind you?
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Yeah, I'm working towards grade-five at the moment.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19- Excellent.- Yeah. - Well, good luck with that.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Thank you.- Rhiannon. Now, these albums.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26Corrine's taken a bit of pressure off there by scoring 100.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Doo-Wops And Hooligans, Bruno Mars.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Doo-Wops And Hooligans, says Rhiannon.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Let's see if it's right and let's see how many people said it.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37It is right.
0:08:37 > 0:08:3939 is our low score.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40And you've passed it.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43And how. Look at that. 12. Well done, Rhiannon.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45That's a great answer. APPLAUSE
0:08:45 > 0:08:4612.
0:08:48 > 0:08:49Very well played, Rhiannon. Yeah.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52His second album, Unorthodox Jukebox, also number one.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- I love a bit of Bruno Mars.- You do. You're a big Bruno Mars fan.- Mm.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Big fan.- Yeah. I don't know it as well as I should.- You would love it.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01I think our children...my children would like Bruno Mars.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03- They'd like the tunes.- Yeah. They're great.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06I don't know why I say "our children" would like Bruno Mars.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07I'm sure I would too.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Yeah, and our children would.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12- We must check on our children, actually. - LAUGHTER
0:09:12 > 0:09:14- I thought you'd... - After the show, yeah?- OK, OK.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17I thought they were with your mum. I didn't realise that...
0:09:17 > 0:09:18LAUGHTER
0:09:18 > 0:09:20- Right, now, Craig.- Yeah.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23- Welcome to Pointless. Here from Liverpool.- Yes.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- What do you do, Craig? - I'm a painter and decorator.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Painter and decorator. Do you work for yourself?
0:09:27 > 0:09:29No, I work in a company.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Have you left them in the middle of a big job to be here?
0:09:31 > 0:09:33I have left them. They don't know I'm here, no.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36- They don't know. They think you're on the sick. Oh, no!- Yeah, yeah.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39What do you do when you're not painting and decorating, Craig?
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Well, I've got two kids, so...
0:09:41 > 0:09:45Time with them. And then, you know, split my time with Billy.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48We watch Everton. We go everywhere to watch Everton.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Very good. Very good. OK, Craig. This board is all yours.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54So why not take us through it and fill in all those blanks for us.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57I can't. I knew the two that are up.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00I'd just have to guess.
0:10:00 > 0:10:05On the top one. And put Our Version Of Events.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Our Version Of Events. That's good. Sounds good to me.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10- It sounds OK.- Our Version Of Events. Let's see if that's right.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16It's right.
0:10:16 > 0:10:17LAUGHING: Well done, Craig!
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Not only is it right, down it goes.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22It's the lowest score of the round so far!
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Your version of events, Craig, did you proud.
0:10:26 > 0:10:2811 is your score.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Yeah, do you know what, not only was that the biggest-selling
0:10:30 > 0:10:33album of 2012, it sold so many copies it was also
0:10:33 > 0:10:36the second-biggest-selling album of 2013.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39- Wow.- That's pretty impressive, isn't it, from Emeli Sande?
0:10:39 > 0:10:41- Emeli Sande.- Now, Corrine.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Not Shepherd Moon, I'm afraid.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48I looked through the board and I said Shepherd Moon as well.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50It's not. It's Shepherd Moons,
0:10:50 > 0:10:53I'm afraid, so we couldn't give it. Unfair to the others if we did.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Would've scored you 4 points as well. Best answer on the board.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58I did the same. I suspect an awful lot of people at home
0:10:58 > 0:11:00would've done the same as well.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Probably why it only scored 4, to be honest.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05Super Trouper, obviously. A very big scorer, that.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Would've scored you 71.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09- The Road To...?- Hell.- Yup.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10That would've scored you 46.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11Do you know the bottom one?
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- Love Over Gold.- Love Over Gold. Exactly that. 18 points.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17So, Shepherd Moons is the best answer. Well done if you said that.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Thank you very much indeed. We are halfway through the round.
0:11:20 > 0:11:21Let's take a look at the scores.
0:11:21 > 0:11:2411 the best score of that pass. Very well done, Craig.
0:11:24 > 0:11:2612 is where we find Rhiannon and Franklyn.
0:11:26 > 0:11:2839, Mike and Vicky.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Then up to 100, Corrine. I'm so sorry.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33But for a rogue S you would be our low scorers at this point.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36I'm so sorry. Always tough on that first podium.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39But, James, a chance for some heroics from you here
0:11:39 > 0:11:40when we get back to you. If we can find a nice,
0:11:40 > 0:11:43low score maybe you can help your mum out there.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:11:48 > 0:11:51OK, we are going to put seven more album titles up on the board
0:11:51 > 0:11:53with missing words. And here they are.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07I'll read those all again.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23Billy, warm welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.
0:12:23 > 0:12:24What do you do, Billy?
0:12:24 > 0:12:25I'm a health and safety advisor.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Good you are here, actually, because...
0:12:28 > 0:12:31Yeah, I've had a word, but nothing seems to be getting done yet.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34No, I mean, these sails are just an accident waiting to happen,
0:12:34 > 0:12:35isn't it? LAUGHTER
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Everything all right? Everything passed, generally speaking?
0:12:38 > 0:12:40No, but we'll see if I win then I'll tell you if everything is OK.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43- OK.- I've always worried about the little step next to podium four.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47- Yeah.- Seems a bit close. No-one has fallen down it yet.- No-one yet.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49But also behind Billy there is a very low railing.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52- And a drop of about 17, 18 feet. - Yeah.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54- Into a pit.- I know, yeah.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57You know what, we should genuinely get the crocodiles out of that pit.
0:12:57 > 0:12:58- Or we'll just feed them. - Or feed them.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00It would be a lovely thing to do.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02- No-one even sees them even. Why have we got them?- I know.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05- I don't know.- Ugh. - It was just something I requested.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07But there we are. Billy.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09When you're not working in health and safety,
0:13:09 > 0:13:11what do you like to get up to?
0:13:11 > 0:13:13I like travelling. I travel a lot.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17I've been to a few festivals in America, Lisbon, I've been to
0:13:17 > 0:13:18Glastonbury a few times.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21And me and Craig go round and watch Everton a lot.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23So you get to pretty much every game, do you?
0:13:23 > 0:13:25- When we can.- That's impressive.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Now, Billy, you are on 11.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29If you can possibly score 88 or less,
0:13:29 > 0:13:31you are comfortably into Round Two.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33I know a few.
0:13:33 > 0:13:39But the one I'm going to go for is Urban Hymns - S - The Verve.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42LAUGHING: Urban Hymn...s.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Urban Hymns, says Billy. Here is your red line. It's nice and high.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48Get below that with Urban Hymns and you are through to the next round.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50How many people said it?
0:13:52 > 0:13:54It's right and through you go.
0:13:54 > 0:13:55Well done, Billy.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Nicely done. 19. Very good indeed.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Takes your total up to a lovely round 30.
0:14:02 > 0:14:03APPLAUSE
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Yeah, another massive selling album, that one.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Contains two of their biggest hits, Bittersweet Symphony
0:14:08 > 0:14:09and The Drugs Don't Work.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Franklyn, a warm welcome here from Huddersfield.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16- Hi, yes.- What do you do, Franklyn?
0:14:16 > 0:14:18I'm a customer assistant in a supermarket.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21Customer assistant means you're not on any till,
0:14:21 > 0:14:23you're just roaming around?
0:14:23 > 0:14:26- I do till, I stock shelves, the bakery...- A sweeper capacity.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28I would call you a shelf associate, is what I would call you.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30LAUGHTER Shelf associate is good.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Or just a customer associate.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34- Yeah, that's nice. - A shop associate. That's good.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37- And is there a good team of you there?- A very good team.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39How many people do you have on duty at any one time?
0:14:39 > 0:14:41From four to about ten on the weekends.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43- And they are a good gang? - Good gang. Yes.
0:14:43 > 0:14:48- Do you muck about a lot?- No.- Good. But no, really?- Sometimes.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51Occasionally. Any favourite aisle?
0:14:51 > 0:14:53- The chocolate aisle. I love chocolate.- Mm.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57I tell you what, the perishable goods aisle, always a bit chilly.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58- Yeah.- Bit cold there.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Now, what are your interests when you are out of the shop?
0:15:00 > 0:15:06I like to go on days out with my friends or my partner.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09I do TV extra work.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11- Have you?- Yeah. - What have you been in?
0:15:11 > 0:15:14I've been in Waterloo Road, Hollyoaks, Emmerdale, Corrie.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17- Do you enjoy it?- I do enjoy it. A lot of waiting around though.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19- Long days, aren't they? - Yes.- Long days.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21OK, well, there you are on 12.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24If you can score 87 or less, you are comfortably in to the next round.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26What would you like to go for?
0:15:26 > 0:15:30It isn't the best board, but I do know the third one up.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Alanis Morissette, Jagged Little Pill, I think it is.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35Jagged Little Pill, says Franklyn.
0:15:35 > 0:15:36Here is your red line.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Get below that with Jagged Little Pill, in you go to Round Two.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Let's see how many people said it.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47It's right.
0:15:47 > 0:15:4840.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50APPLAUSE
0:15:50 > 0:15:52A surprisingly high score. 52 there.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Well played, Franklyn. Yeah, number one over 20 years ago now.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59ALEXANDER GASPS
0:15:59 > 0:16:00I know.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03- That's awful, isn't it?- Wow.
0:16:03 > 0:16:04- Yeah.- Wow.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06- There you go. - It's quite depressing.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08RICHARD CHUCKLES
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Yes. Oh, Vicky, sorry, that's thrown me.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13I've just had some bad news, sorry. Don't worry. Bear with me.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15I'll be with you in a sec. What do you do, Vicky?
0:16:15 > 0:16:18I'm a full-time English literature student.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21- Now that's... Full-time?- Yeah.- Full-time.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Which means you don't do anything else.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26No, I'm a part-time sales associate in a jewellery shop as well.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Where are you doing your English literature course?
0:16:28 > 0:16:30- Manchester Metropolitan. - I see. And what year are you in?
0:16:30 > 0:16:33I've just finished the final year of my undergraduate.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35- I'm going on to postgraduate. - Really full-time.- Yeah.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37So what, are you doing an MPhil or a PhD or what?
0:16:37 > 0:16:40I want to do a PhD after I do my Masters.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42- OK.- Masters is next up. - Very good indeed.
0:16:42 > 0:16:43Now, Vicky, you are on 39.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46The highest scorers on 100 still Corrine and James.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49So 60 or less gets you through.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52Yeah, the two that I definitely know have gone.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54I think I might know another one. But I'm not sure.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56I'm going to go for the Rolling Stones,
0:16:56 > 0:16:58which I think is Sticky Fingers.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01Sticky Fingers, says Vicky. 39 is your total.
0:17:01 > 0:17:02You want to get below that red line.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06Let's see how many of our 100 people said Sticky Fingers.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11It's right. Very well done.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13Oh, look at that! 49.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15Not much to spare there. APPLAUSE
0:17:15 > 0:17:18But enough to get you through. Well done.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Everyone is being so careful with their Ss this round.
0:17:21 > 0:17:25Hymns. Pill. Fingers.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Yeah, 11 number one albums, the Rolling Stones.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30One of our 100 people said Toffee.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33LAUGHTER
0:17:33 > 0:17:35- Maybe they were hungry. - Maybe they were.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Thank you very much indeed. James, welcome to Pointless.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40- Hello.- What do you do, James?
0:17:40 > 0:17:45I am a financial services auditor, which is as dull as it sounds.
0:17:45 > 0:17:46LAUGHTER Oh, come on.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49There have got to be part of the financial services auditing
0:17:49 > 0:17:51that gets the pulse quickening.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- Some numbers look different from other numbers.- Mm-hmm.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56Do you have a favourite?
0:17:56 > 0:17:58- I've always been partial to seven. - Oh, seven.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01- With a line through the middle. - With a line through it. OK.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04You sidestepped eight there, which is interesting.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Now, James, what do you like getting up to?
0:18:06 > 0:18:08My big passion is going to see live comedy.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10I go and see as much as I possibly can.
0:18:10 > 0:18:11My sister is in an improv group
0:18:11 > 0:18:14and they do a performance once a month which I always go and attend.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17- Where is that?- It's in Cheltenham.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20And they are going up to hopefully do a tour soon.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22OK, do you ever go up to Edinburgh? Do you ever do that?
0:18:22 > 0:18:24- I really, really want to go. - Oh, you must.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27- It's the most fun you can have, a week up there.- It is.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29You can fit in sort of eight shows a day.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31And they are all sort of bite-sized, which is quite nice.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34Now, James, I'm afraid to say that you are the high-scorers
0:18:34 > 0:18:36- even before you've given your brilliant answer.- Indeed.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38But would you like to go through that board
0:18:38 > 0:18:40and fill in the blanks for us?
0:18:40 > 0:18:42I'd like to go through the board and out of the exit really,
0:18:42 > 0:18:44to be honest, with that board.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46I...
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Definitely Maybe, obviously, Oasis.
0:18:48 > 0:18:52Stars Of... I own that album and I can't remember what one that is.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56I'm just going to play it safe and go with Definitely Maybe for Oasis.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57OK, Definitely Maybe, says James.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06It's right.
0:19:06 > 0:19:0762.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09162 is your total.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11APPLAUSE
0:19:13 > 0:19:16That's over 20 years old as well, Definitely Maybe.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19- Is that bad news for you as well? - It is a bit, yeah.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21They've had eight number one albums, Oasis.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24Now, let's fill in the rest of these answers.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26- Do you know Crazy...?- Crazy Love.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29Crazy Love by Michael Buble. 23 points for that.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32- The Hard-Fi album...- I don't know that.- ..is Stars Of CCTV.- Mm.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34That's the best answer on the board as well.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37Would have been a nice way to send yourself off.
0:19:37 > 0:19:384 points for that.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41- And Wanted On...? - Voyage.- Voyage. By George Ezra.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Which would have scored you 9 points.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46CCTV was the best answer on that board.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47Thanks very much.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50At the end of our first round, the pair we are sending home
0:19:50 > 0:19:53with their high score of 162, I'm very sorry, James and Corrine.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55But had you got Shepherd Moons,
0:19:55 > 0:19:57you'd be going through to the next round. I'm so sorry.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Anyway, we will see you again next time.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02I'm sure you'll do better. Meantime, thanks very much,
0:20:02 > 0:20:04James and Corrine. APPLAUSE
0:20:04 > 0:20:07But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Well done, everyone. We've made it through to Round Two.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17We've seen off one of our pairs already.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20We'll have to say goodbye to another pair at the end of this round.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23Don't know who it will be but, Billy and Craig, on the strength of that
0:20:23 > 0:20:26round, I don't think it will be you. So very well done to you.
0:20:26 > 0:20:27Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...
0:20:31 > 0:20:34My favourite kind. Low Altitude Geography.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36- I told you. I did warn you. - Yeah, yeah. There we go.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Can you all decide in your pairs who will go first and second?
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48OK, let's find out what this question is going to be.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:20:55 > 0:20:58..as they could. Countries that are flatter than the UK.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01- Nothing wrong with it. - Nothing wrong with that, is there?
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- No, it's a brilliant question. - Thank you very much.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07Yeah, the highest point in the UK is Ben Nevis, which is 1,343 metres,
0:21:07 > 0:21:08to be precise.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11We are looking for any country of the world whose highest point
0:21:11 > 0:21:13is lower than that, please. So any country of the world
0:21:13 > 0:21:15whose highest point is lower than Ben Nevis.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18As always, by country we mean a sovereign state that's
0:21:18 > 0:21:19a member of the UN in its own right.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23All of our information is taken from the CIA World Factbook.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25I see. OK. There we are.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28This is going to be fun. Bit of a minefield, I suspect.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30But there we are. We'll have some fun along the way.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Mike.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34What would you like to go for?
0:21:34 > 0:21:38It might be a bit of an obvious one, but the Netherlands.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41It stands to reason, doesn't it?
0:21:41 > 0:21:43The Netherlands. Let's see if it's right.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:21:47 > 0:21:48It's right.
0:21:50 > 0:21:5165 for the Netherlands.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54APPLAUSE
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Yeah, the highest point in the Netherlands is 322 metres.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03There's actually a higher place in the Netherlands, Antilles,
0:22:03 > 0:22:05which is technically part of the Netherlands.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07But even that is lower than Ben Nevis.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Right you are. OK. Thank you.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12It's beginning to settle in my mind at least, this.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14I'm less scared than I was to start with.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Rhiannon, what would you like to go for?
0:22:17 > 0:22:18Just a guess. Dubai.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Dubai. Let's make sure it's a country.
0:22:20 > 0:22:24Let's see how many of our 100 people said Dubai. Is it right?
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Oh, bad luck, Rhiannon. I'm sorry.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer. It scores you 100 points.
0:22:32 > 0:22:36- Yeah, not a country, I'm afraid, Rhiannon.- Is it not?- No. Sorry.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38OK now, Billy. This is going well.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Don't you think, Billy?
0:22:40 > 0:22:44Yeah, I'm thinking Madagascar.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Madagascar, says Billy. Let's see if that's right.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Let's see how many of our 100 people said Madagascar.
0:22:52 > 0:22:53No! Bad luck, Billy.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57I'm afraid it's not a correct answer.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00- 100 points.- Yeah, sorry, Billy. Huge place, Madagascar.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02And they have a peak higher than Ben Nevis.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Let's take a look at those scores.
0:23:07 > 0:23:0865, Mike, there we are.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Well done for going for the obvious answer.
0:23:11 > 0:23:12The Netherlands has helped you out there.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15Then we travel up to 100, where we find Billy and Craig
0:23:15 > 0:23:17and Rhiannon and Franklyn. So best of luck.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players
0:23:19 > 0:23:21please step up to the podium?
0:23:23 > 0:23:27OK. Now, Craig. We're looking for any country whose highest point
0:23:27 > 0:23:29is lower than Ben Nevis.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35I'm going to say... Estonia.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39Estonia, says Craig. OK. We're branching out a little bit here.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42Estonia. You're joint-highest scorers so no red line for you.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45Let's see how many of our 100 people said Estonia.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48It's right.
0:23:50 > 0:23:51Well played, Craig.
0:23:51 > 0:23:52Estonia taking us
0:23:52 > 0:23:54beautifully down the column.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56To 1.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Very well done indeed. 101 is your total.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Short of a pointless answer from Franklyn,
0:24:03 > 0:24:05that should see you into the head-to-head.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Yeah, that lays down a marker. Very well played.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10As you well know, its highest point is Suur Munamagi, which is,
0:24:10 > 0:24:13I think, 318 metres. Something like that, isn't it?
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Suur Munamagi. You can walk up in a morning.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18- It's lovely, isn't it?- Yeah. The snow is... It's beautiful.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21- But it's no Ben Nevis.- Beautiful cafe at the top there as well.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Suur Munamagi.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26Oh, dear. Now, Franklyn, you have to score a pointless answer.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28But do you know, I bet there are loads there.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30I'm sure there is, yeah.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34I bet there are. I mean, Estonia, which we all know, scored only 1.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37- Yeah, I'm going to go for it. Sierra Leone.- Sierra Leone.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41There we are. Sierra Leone. Sierra means mountain, doesn't it?
0:24:41 > 0:24:43LAUGHTER
0:24:43 > 0:24:48OK. There is your red line. It's there but it's very, very low.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51Let's see how many of our 100 people said Sierra Leone.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Oh I'm sorry, Franklyn.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01I'm so sorry. That scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 200.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04Yeah, Sierra Leone. Sierra meaning mountains. Leone meaning massive.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06- So... - LAUGHTER
0:25:08 > 0:25:11There we go. Thanks very much indeed.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Now, Vicky, I've got fabulous news for you.
0:25:13 > 0:25:14- It doesn't matter what you score. - Yay.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16However, wouldn't it be lovely, now that
0:25:16 > 0:25:19you've got that safety net, you could find a pointless answer.
0:25:19 > 0:25:24- Just think laterally.- Yeah.- And come up with a lovely pointless answer.
0:25:24 > 0:25:28OK. I'm going to go Democratic Republic of the Congo.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Democratic Republic of the Congo.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Or DRC as I've noticed we now call it on Pointless.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36There we are. No red line for you because you're already through.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Let's see how many of our 100 people went with
0:25:38 > 0:25:39Democratic Republic of the Congo.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Oh, no. Bad luck!
0:25:43 > 0:25:47Bad luck. That scores you 100 points. Takes your total up to 165.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49But you're through anyhow.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51That went really, really well, didn't it(?)
0:25:51 > 0:25:52LAUGHTER That was a good round.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55It is a good round. The key to that round is thinking of tiny islands.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57That's the key. Madagascar's a very big island.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00It was either that or Maldives and I went well wrong.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03Maldives would've scored 2 points. It would've been a terrific answer.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06That's the key to the round. There's some you just wouldn't guess.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08But the little islands are the ones to go for.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11All sorts of them are pointless answers. Let's take a look.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13Some of the pointless ones.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17Belarus is not something you'd ever have risked, I don't think.
0:26:17 > 0:26:18But it's a pointless answer.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35Palau, Nauru, so lots of the Pointless favourites.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37Lots of those little islands were all pointless.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39Would have been a very good route to go.
0:26:39 > 0:26:40Let's take a look at the top three.
0:26:40 > 0:26:44The ones that most of our 100 people said. You may recognise the top one.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53There we are. Thank you. I liked that round though.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55- I liked it.- I think it was rather good.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57I think it was difficult on that first podium.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00You've got to get your head into what sort of place
0:27:00 > 0:27:02- has no mountains at all.- Yeah.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05- A really, really tiny place, by and large, an island.- Mm.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09People at home will have worked that out. They'll be feeling very smug.
0:27:09 > 0:27:10Yeah. Yeah. There we are.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12At the end of our second round, I'm afraid the pair
0:27:12 > 0:27:15we have to say goodbye to, our newest members of the 200 Club...
0:27:15 > 0:27:17- Oh, yeah!- Franklyn and Rhiannon.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20I'm sorry to be sending you home now but we'll see you again next time.
0:27:20 > 0:27:21Look forward to that very much.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24Meantime, thanks very much, Franklyn and Rhiannon.
0:27:24 > 0:27:25APPLAUSE
0:27:25 > 0:27:29But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38Very, very well done, Billy and Craig, Vicky and Mike.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40You are now one step closer to the final and a chance to
0:27:40 > 0:27:43play for that jackpot, which currently stands at £3,000.
0:27:43 > 0:27:44A decent jackpot.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50We've reached the point in the game where you can start
0:27:50 > 0:27:52playing as a team. You can chat before you give your answers.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55The first pair to win two questions will play for the jackpot.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58We've had low scores from each of you, which has been great.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00We've also had an incorrect answer from each of you.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02We had Democratic Republic of the Congo
0:28:02 > 0:28:04and we had Madagascar from you, Billy.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07So nearly the Maldives, which would have been a fantastic answer there.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09But you've got low-scoring answers within you.
0:28:09 > 0:28:10So now you start playing as teams,
0:28:10 > 0:28:13I should think we should be quite well matched here.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16Anyway, best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Here is your first question. And it concerns...
0:28:27 > 0:28:28Richard.
0:28:28 > 0:28:31We are going to show you five pictures now of fictional families.
0:28:31 > 0:28:33We just need you to provide the surnames, please.
0:28:33 > 0:28:37OK, so let's find the surnames to these families. And here they come.
0:28:37 > 0:28:38We've got...
0:29:05 > 0:29:06There we go.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09Five fictional families.
0:29:09 > 0:29:13Billy and Craig, you are our low-scorers so you will go first.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16INDISTINCT SPEECH
0:29:25 > 0:29:29- OK.- OK.- We are going to go for E, White.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32E, White. E, White, say Billy and Craig.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35So, Vicky and Mike, do you want to talk us through the other families?
0:29:35 > 0:29:38We think B might be the Dingles.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41- And what...- C, Royle. Royles.
0:29:41 > 0:29:43Yeah, we were going to go for E.
0:29:43 > 0:29:45I don't think anything is going to beat E.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47- So...- B?- Should we go B?- Yeah.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49- The Dingles.- The Dingles. B, the Dingles.
0:29:49 > 0:29:51We have White and Dingle.
0:29:51 > 0:29:55So, Billy and Craig said White. Let's see if that's right for E.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57Let's see how many of our 100 people said White.
0:30:00 > 0:30:01It's right.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06OK, where is it going to stop?
0:30:06 > 0:30:0818 for White. Well done.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10APPLAUSE
0:30:10 > 0:30:1318 for White. Now, Vicky and Mike have gone for Dingle.
0:30:13 > 0:30:14Let's see if that is right for B.
0:30:14 > 0:30:17Let's see how many of our 100 people said Dingle.
0:30:20 > 0:30:21It's right.
0:30:24 > 0:30:2630 for Dingle.
0:30:26 > 0:30:30Not a bad answer, by any means. But, Billy and Craig, very well done.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32After one question, you are up 1-0.
0:30:32 > 0:30:35Two good answers there. The best answer on the board is actually A.
0:30:35 > 0:30:39- And that is the 2002 remake... - Forsyte Saga.- ..of the Forsyte Saga.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41It would have scored you 3 points.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Very well done if you said that.
0:30:43 > 0:30:45C is, of course, the Royles.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49- 81 points for that.- Pff!
0:30:49 > 0:30:51And D is the Ewings.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53Scores fewer than the Royles.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Scores 62.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57I quite like the idea of a ten-gallon hat.
0:30:57 > 0:30:58Yeah, they are good, aren't they?
0:30:58 > 0:31:01- They haven't really caught on here so much.- No, they haven't.
0:31:01 > 0:31:03I think perhaps we should start wearing them.
0:31:03 > 0:31:05- That's a really good idea.- Yeah. - I get enough grief
0:31:05 > 0:31:09if I sit in front of people in the cinema without a ten-gallon hat on.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12That's true. There we are. OK, here comes your second question now.
0:31:12 > 0:31:14Vicky and Mike, you get to answer this first
0:31:14 > 0:31:16but you have to win it to stay in the game. So best of luck.
0:31:16 > 0:31:17It concerns...
0:31:19 > 0:31:23- Richard.- I'm going to show you five anagrams now of Italian dishes that
0:31:23 > 0:31:26contain pasta. Can you tell us what the most obscure is, please?
0:31:26 > 0:31:29OK, let's reveal our five anagrams. And here they are.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40I'll read those one last time.
0:31:45 > 0:31:49Or American Echoes, which is also Enya's second album.
0:31:49 > 0:31:50No, no. That was American Echo.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53- Oh sorry. You're quite right.- Yeah.
0:31:53 > 0:31:55Now then, Vicky and Mike. You go first.
0:31:55 > 0:31:59Do you know any but the two obvious ones?
0:31:59 > 0:32:00Not really.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04We only know the two obvious ones. Um...
0:32:05 > 0:32:08Yeah, we'll have to go ravioli.
0:32:08 > 0:32:12- Ravioli. From which one, sorry? - The fourth one down.- OI RIVAL.
0:32:12 > 0:32:17OK, ravioli. Yes, Billy and Craig, talk us through that board.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20We can talk you through TABLESPOON EGG HEIST,
0:32:20 > 0:32:22which we think is spaghetti Bolognese.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25We also thought OI RIVAL was ravioli.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29- They've said that. - I know. That's what I mean.
0:32:29 > 0:32:31Um...
0:32:31 > 0:32:32We could guess on one.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34- What's the one...?- I don't know.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37No, I'd just say that. Cos we don't know any of the others.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40OK, we'll go for TABLESPOON EGG HEIST. Spaghetti Bolognese.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43Spaghetti Bolognese. So we have ravioli and spaghetti Bolognese.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46Vicky and Mike said ravioli for OI RIVAL. Let's see if that's right.
0:32:46 > 0:32:48Let's see how many people said it.
0:32:48 > 0:32:50I've got the top one now as well!
0:32:50 > 0:32:52It's right.
0:32:52 > 0:32:53Oy! Look at that.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55Sorry, OI RIVAL, look at that!
0:32:55 > 0:32:5688. APPLAUSE
0:32:56 > 0:32:58I've got the top one now.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02Billy and Craig, meanwhile,
0:33:02 > 0:33:04have gone for spaghetti Bolognese, TABLESPOON EGG HEIST.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:33:09 > 0:33:10It's right.
0:33:10 > 0:33:13And it wins you the point. Very well done indeed.
0:33:13 > 0:33:15Look at that. Low score!
0:33:15 > 0:33:17Look at that! 33 for spaghetti Bolognese.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19Very well done, Billy and Craig.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21That means you, after only two questions,
0:33:21 > 0:33:23are straight through to the final 2-0.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25Very well played, gents. Let's fill in the rest of this board.
0:33:25 > 0:33:28The top one is my favourite.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31- It is spaghetti carbonara. - Carbonara.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33- It would have scored 26.- Oh!
0:33:33 > 0:33:36- AS ANGEL is, of course...- Lasagne.
0:33:37 > 0:33:38It would have scored 54.
0:33:38 > 0:33:40I didn't get the bottom one. Did you get it?
0:33:40 > 0:33:43- That I did get. Macaroni cheese. - Macaroni cheese.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45That was the best answer on the board. 6 points.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47There we are. Thank you very much indeed.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:33:50 > 0:33:53Vicky and Mike, I'm so sorry to be saying goodbye to you now.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55But it's good because it means we get to see you again next time.
0:33:55 > 0:33:58And you'll get a second shot at a Pointless final.
0:33:58 > 0:33:59So that's good news.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01Meantime, thanks very much indeed, Vicky and Mike.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04APPLAUSE
0:34:04 > 0:34:07But for Billy and Craig, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:11 > 0:34:13Very, very well done, Billy and Craig.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15You've seen off all the competition
0:34:15 > 0:34:17and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Now you have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:34:25 > 0:34:28At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £3,000.
0:34:28 > 0:34:29There we are.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31APPLAUSE
0:34:31 > 0:34:34- Come on. That's worth taking home, isn't it? Come on.- Not half.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37You've done so well. I'm really sorry that you won't be here
0:34:37 > 0:34:39for the next show though. Cos we've got some great questions.
0:34:39 > 0:34:43- Oh, amazing.- The next show.- It's all about Everton, the next show.
0:34:43 > 0:34:47Yeah, the entire thing. Round One was going to be Everton trophies
0:34:47 > 0:34:50and I realised it just wouldn't last long enough. But other than that...
0:34:50 > 0:34:52LAUGHTER But, Billy, I wanted to ask you...
0:34:52 > 0:34:56Because I read that one of your great interests is the
0:34:56 > 0:34:5816th and 17th century Dutch masters.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00- Golden Age, yeah. - That's really true.
0:35:00 > 0:35:04I travel round a lot so I always go to the art galleries wherever I am.
0:35:04 > 0:35:07- See, that's fantastic. - So if that's one of the questions...
0:35:07 > 0:35:10I was just thinking, that's the kind of niche knowledge that can
0:35:10 > 0:35:12really help you out in Pointless.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14You got a shake of the head there, did you?
0:35:14 > 0:35:17I was trying to do it without anyone noticing.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19- Oh, right. - They didn't notice, did they?
0:35:19 > 0:35:20No, they didn't, no.
0:35:20 > 0:35:24Now then, Billy, Craig, obviously apart from 16th to 17th century
0:35:24 > 0:35:27Dutch masters, what else would you like to see come up on this board?
0:35:27 > 0:35:31- Something football, sport...- Surely.
0:35:31 > 0:35:35I've done a bit of revising so capital cities, state capitals.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37Actually, I'm not going to say nothing in case
0:35:37 > 0:35:39he's throwing papers away.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42Presidents and prime ministers might be OK.
0:35:42 > 0:35:43Well, very, very best of luck.
0:35:43 > 0:35:45Such a good performance on the show today.
0:35:45 > 0:35:49It deserves a win of the jackpot. So let's see what's up there.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52Let's hope there is something you like the look of. We've got...
0:35:57 > 0:36:00INDISTINCT SPEECH
0:36:00 > 0:36:02Is that what you want?
0:36:02 > 0:36:03The letter S in science, please.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05The letter S in science, Richard.
0:36:05 > 0:36:06OK, very best of luck, gents.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09We're looking for any of the following three things.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11We are looking for any chemical element
0:36:11 > 0:36:14whose symbol begins with an S.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17We are looking for any moons of our solar system
0:36:17 > 0:36:19whose name begins with an S.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22The moons of any of the planets of our solar system
0:36:22 > 0:36:24whose name begins with S.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27We are looking for anyone who has won a scientific Nobel Prize
0:36:27 > 0:36:28whose surname begins with S.
0:36:28 > 0:36:32The scientific ones are physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35Anyone who has won one of those whose surname begins with S.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38Those Nobel Prizes are up to the 2014 awards.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40Chemical elements whose symbols begin with S,
0:36:40 > 0:36:42moons of the solar system beginning with S,
0:36:42 > 0:36:45and scientific Nobel Prize-winners whose surnames begin with S.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47- Very best of luck.- Thanks very much.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49As always, you've got up to a minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52And all you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those
0:36:52 > 0:36:55- answers to be pointless. Are you ready?- Yes.
0:36:55 > 0:36:58OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.
0:36:58 > 0:36:59Your time starts now.
0:36:59 > 0:37:02S, sodium. I'm just trying to think of stupid obscure ones.
0:37:02 > 0:37:06- Fermium, strandium.- Strandium.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09- If we have to guess, I'm going to go for strandium.- Yeah.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11I thought it was just going to have S in. But I've just...
0:37:11 > 0:37:12It's all right.
0:37:12 > 0:37:16Scientific Nobel Prize-winners. Smith has got to be a good bet.
0:37:16 > 0:37:19Smith. Or Schwartz. I don't know.
0:37:19 > 0:37:23- Chemical elements...- I think that's our best bet, isn't it?
0:37:24 > 0:37:27BILLY MURMURS
0:37:32 > 0:37:35I haven't got a clue. Not one clue at all.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37Yeah, um...
0:37:37 > 0:37:41INDISTINCT CONVERSATION
0:37:43 > 0:37:44Strandium...
0:37:44 > 0:37:48HE SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY
0:37:48 > 0:37:49Ten seconds left.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55Strandium's definitely one.
0:37:55 > 0:37:59INDISTINCT SPEECH
0:37:59 > 0:38:01OK. I'm afraid that's your time up.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03Let's have your three answers. And if you say which category.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06OK, so scientific Nobel Prize-winners.
0:38:06 > 0:38:07Do you want Smith or Schwartz?
0:38:07 > 0:38:10- We need full names, guys, rather than surnames.- Do you?- Yeah.
0:38:10 > 0:38:14- Let's not then.- John Smith for scientific Nobel Prize-winners.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16- I remember it well.- OK, John Smith.
0:38:16 > 0:38:19For chemical elements whose symbols begin with S
0:38:19 > 0:38:24we'll say proseodydium and strandium.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26John Smith, proseodydium and strandium.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31Strandium. If it's not that, we can just go.
0:38:31 > 0:38:32Strandium goes last.
0:38:32 > 0:38:35Least likely to be pointless, I'm guessing possibly John Smith.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38- John Smith, yeah.- OK, we'll pop them up on the board in that order.
0:38:38 > 0:38:39And here they are.
0:38:40 > 0:38:41We've got...
0:38:45 > 0:38:49- You're slightly dubious about some of them.- Well, yeah.- Yeah.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51OK, listen, we'll find out. Best of luck.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53Anyway, if one of those happens to be pointless,
0:38:53 > 0:38:56what would you do with that £3,000 jackpot?
0:38:56 > 0:38:59I'd do something nice for the kids.
0:38:59 > 0:39:03Give a percentage of it to a charity that means something to me.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06- Very good. Billy?- I'll have to give some to charity as well.
0:39:06 > 0:39:08And I've got a holiday booked later in the year,
0:39:08 > 0:39:11so pay off that if we do.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13That would be handy. Very good. OK, well, best of luck.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16In the first case, you've gone for scientific Nobel Prize-winner.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19You've said John Smith.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22Let's find out if it's right. Let's just find out if it's right.
0:39:22 > 0:39:23For £3,000, is it pointless?
0:39:26 > 0:39:27Oh, dear. Yeah.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30John Smith not a Nobel Prize-winner
0:39:30 > 0:39:32so unfortunately not a pointless answer.
0:39:32 > 0:39:35However, we now move on to... You revised the chemical elements?
0:39:35 > 0:39:36I revised the chemical elements
0:39:36 > 0:39:39so I thought it was going to be just with S in.
0:39:39 > 0:39:43- Not so specific.- OK.- That's why I convinced him to go for it.
0:39:43 > 0:39:47Your next answer is proseodydium. Proseodydium.
0:39:47 > 0:39:48A nice chemical element.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51You hoped its symbol would begin with the letter S.
0:39:51 > 0:39:53If it does and if it's pointless, it will win you £3,000.
0:39:53 > 0:39:55How many people said proseodydium?
0:39:59 > 0:40:02Ooh. I'm afraid that's incorrect, proseodydium.
0:40:02 > 0:40:03Not on that list.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06Which means you only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:40:06 > 0:40:07Your third and final answer,
0:40:07 > 0:40:10the one you had no hesitation in putting last.
0:40:10 > 0:40:12Your best shot at a pointless answer was strandium.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15Let's find out. Is it right, is it pointless?
0:40:15 > 0:40:17If it's both of those things it'll win you £3,000. Strandium.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Oh bad luck.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24I'm so sorry.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26APPLAUSE
0:40:26 > 0:40:30I'm afraid the letter S in science didn't come up
0:40:30 > 0:40:32quite as well as it might have done.
0:40:32 > 0:40:35I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37So I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £3,000.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39That will roll over onto the next show.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42But really, really impressive performance right across the show.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44It's been great fun having you on.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46And of course you get a Pointless trophy each to take home.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49- That's all we really came for. - There we are. Very, very well done.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51APPLAUSE
0:40:53 > 0:40:54Yeah, very well played, Billy and Craig.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56We knew no-one at the start of this show
0:40:56 > 0:40:58and now Billy and Craig feel like old friends.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00I want them to come back. Do you?
0:41:00 > 0:41:02- Absolutely.- Let's take a look at those wrong answers.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04I think you are thinking of praseodymium,
0:41:04 > 0:41:07which would have been wrong cos its chemical symbol is Pr.
0:41:07 > 0:41:09Strandium doesn't exist.
0:41:09 > 0:41:12- Unless you've just invented. In which case...- It's down the back.
0:41:12 > 0:41:13I found it when...
0:41:13 > 0:41:15If you did, then we've just got a new element live on the show.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18You know it's going to make you an awful lot more than £3,000,
0:41:18 > 0:41:21that's the good news. There is scandium.
0:41:21 > 0:41:24Which you may have been thinking of. Scandium was a pointless answer.
0:41:24 > 0:41:26Unlucky.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29You've got to be careful when you revise. That's the thing.
0:41:29 > 0:41:31No John Smith. There is three Smiths on the list.
0:41:31 > 0:41:34Hamilton Smith, who you would never have got.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37Michael Smith. And George Smith.
0:41:37 > 0:41:42- Imagine if you'd guessed. - George Smith.- Georgie.- Yeah.
0:41:42 > 0:41:46Let's take a look at the answers in the different categories.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49- I think you said one of these in your 60 seconds.- I did!
0:41:49 > 0:41:52- You said antimony. - Antimony. I thought it was Ay.
0:41:52 > 0:41:54- Antimony is Sb.- I'm so sorry.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58I thought I heard you just whisper it
0:41:58 > 0:42:00and then it went away at the end of the 60 seconds.
0:42:00 > 0:42:03- Why didn't you tell me? - I didn't know what you were saying.
0:42:03 > 0:42:04LAUGHTER
0:42:04 > 0:42:07Let's take a look at some of those moons.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15Everything apart from Sponde and Sinope,
0:42:15 > 0:42:17they were the only ones that scored any points there.
0:42:17 > 0:42:21Let's take a look at some of these Nobel Prize-winners.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23Frederick Sanger won twice for chemistry.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27Glenn T Seaborg, who won for chemistry
0:42:27 > 0:42:31Seaborgium would have scored you 1 point in the elements round.
0:42:31 > 0:42:33Johannes Stark, who won for physics.
0:42:33 > 0:42:37And Randy W Schekman, who won for work on human cells.
0:42:37 > 0:42:39Very well done if you got any of those at home.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42That was tough luck in the studio, isn't it?
0:42:42 > 0:42:44I'm very sorry we have to say goodbye to you.
0:42:44 > 0:42:45It's been brilliant having you on the show.
0:42:45 > 0:42:49Thanks so much for being brilliant contestants. Billy and Craig.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51APPLAUSE
0:42:51 > 0:42:54Sadly, Billy and Craig didn't win our jackpot today, which means
0:42:54 > 0:42:58it rolls over onto the next show when we will be playing for £4,000.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00Join us then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
