0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you very much. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong.

0:00:24 > 0:00:25Welcome to Pointless,

0:00:25 > 0:00:28the show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players. APPLAUSE

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

0:00:35 > 0:00:36Hi, I'm Tim.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39This is my friend Caitlin, and we're both from Cardiff University.

0:00:39 > 0:00:40Couple number two.

0:00:40 > 0:00:42Hi, my name is Mike and this is my girlfriend, Vicky.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44We both currently live in Manchester.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46- Couple number three. - Hi, I'm Franklyn.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48This is my friend Rhiannon, and we're from West Yorkshire.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50And finally couple number four.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53Hi, my name is Corrine and I'm from Stroud, in Gloucestershire,

0:00:53 > 0:00:54and this is my son James.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56And these are today's contestants.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58APPLAUSE

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Thanks very much, all of you. A warm welcome to the show.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04We will find out more about each of you throughout the show.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Here to whisper sweet nothings into the ear of his encyclopaedia

0:01:09 > 0:01:11is my Pointless friend - it's Richard.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13- APPLAUSE - Hiya.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15Hi, everybody. Good afternoon.

0:01:17 > 0:01:18- Good afternoon to you.- And to you.

0:01:18 > 0:01:22- Well, what a show last time. - What a show.- Everything happened.

0:01:22 > 0:01:24- Didn't it?- In the first round on our last podium,

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Corrine and James got knocked out cos Corrine give us a wrong answer

0:01:27 > 0:01:29by one letter in that first round.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32She said Shepherd Moon for an Enya album.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34It was Shepherd Moons, so it was very unfortunate.

0:01:34 > 0:01:36So, hopefully we'll see much more of them today.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39Rhiannon and Franklyn got safely through that first round,

0:01:39 > 0:01:42then joined the 200 Club in the second round.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45Vicky and Mike, they got all the way to the head-to-head,

0:01:45 > 0:01:47- so they're going to be tough to beat.- Yeah.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49They got beaten by Billy and Craig.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52Then Billy and Craig got through to the final to the jackpot round.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54They had a question on elements,

0:01:54 > 0:01:57and Billy discovered two brand-new elements that didn't exist yet.

0:01:57 > 0:01:58- No.- Yeah.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Unfortunate for him, they didn't exist cos they didn't win the money,

0:02:01 > 0:02:05but fair play to him for discovering two brand-new ones.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07Very good indeed. Thank you very much, Richard.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09Billy and Craig, as you've gathered,

0:02:09 > 0:02:12didn't win the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that.

0:02:12 > 0:02:16So, today's jackpot starts off at this - £4,000.

0:02:16 > 0:02:17There we are.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20APPLAUSE Very exciting indeed.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22Well, somebody could win that today.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26APPLAUSE

0:02:29 > 0:02:31Just remember this - the pair with the highest score

0:02:31 > 0:02:33at the end of each round will be eliminated.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Your job is to make sure you are not that pair.

0:02:36 > 0:02:37Best of luck to all four pairs.

0:02:37 > 0:02:41Our first category this afternoon is Tennis. It's Tennis.

0:02:41 > 0:02:45Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second?

0:02:45 > 0:02:48And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53OK. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:02:53 > 0:02:58We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:03:03 > 0:03:07Wimbledon singles winners with seven or fewer letters in their surname.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Yeah, looking for the name of any woman or man

0:03:10 > 0:03:13who's won a Wimbledon singles title since 1968, please,

0:03:13 > 0:03:15right up to the 2015 tournament

0:03:15 > 0:03:17whose surname has seven or fewer letters.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Very best of luck.- There we go. Thank you very much indeed.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Caitlin, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24- University of Cardiff.- Yes.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27- And what are you studying there? - I'm studying chemistry.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30Oh, you'd have been all over that last round.

0:03:30 > 0:03:31You know we've discovered new elements.

0:03:31 > 0:03:34- You might need to take that back. - I've heard the exciting news.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37- Strandium you can have. - Yeah.- Yeah. Very good.

0:03:37 > 0:03:38What have you been up to when

0:03:38 > 0:03:40you haven't been studying your chemistry?

0:03:40 > 0:03:43Well, I'm on the university ladies' cricket team,

0:03:43 > 0:03:45- so a lot of fun with that. - Well done. Exciting.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48- Unfortunately not for this question, but there you go.- Unfortunately not.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52- And I think we just enjoy having a good time. Yeah.- As you should.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54- Student life.- Now, Tennis. - Yes.- Are you happy with Tennis?

0:03:54 > 0:03:58- You didn't look particularly happy when it came up.- No.- No.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00Do you like it any more now that we've told you

0:04:00 > 0:04:02what the specifics are?

0:04:02 > 0:04:05- Slightly more.- OK.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08- There are some obvious ones coming to mind.- Uh-huh.

0:04:08 > 0:04:12- I'm trying to think a bit more on the pointless side.- This is good.

0:04:12 > 0:04:13That's where we are.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16But I think that I might just have to go

0:04:16 > 0:04:21with the obvious to be safe and go with Roger Federer.

0:04:21 > 0:04:24That's definitely going to land in the right part of the court.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27Roger Federer. Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:04:30 > 0:04:31It's right.

0:04:35 > 0:04:36Well, it's not that bad.

0:04:36 > 0:04:3719. There we are, Caitlin.

0:04:37 > 0:04:38That's how you do it.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40Gets us off to a very good start. APPLAUSE

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Yeah, seven singles titles up to 2015.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48- His name feels like it's got more than seven letters, though.- Yeah.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50I imagine lots of people left it off,

0:04:50 > 0:04:53cos when you've got 100 seconds and you're writing them down,

0:04:53 > 0:04:54I think you dismiss it early...

0:04:54 > 0:04:56- That's true. - ..and you don't go back to check.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58So, good counting there. There you are.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Roger Federer. Roger Federer.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Vicky, welcome back.

0:05:02 > 0:05:03Vicky, remind us what you do.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05I'm an English literature student

0:05:05 > 0:05:07and I also work in a jewellery shop part-time.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09And where are you doing your English literature?

0:05:09 > 0:05:12- Manchester Met. - And what are your interests, Vicky?

0:05:12 > 0:05:15I'm a really big videogamer, and I love American football

0:05:15 > 0:05:16and WWE wrestling,

0:05:16 > 0:05:19so anything that involves sitting on the sofa for hours on end.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22OK, you are just the perfect Pointless contestant.

0:05:22 > 0:05:23I mean, that is extraordinary.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27You've got everything we need. Now, Vicky, how is your tennis?

0:05:27 > 0:05:30- Not good at all.- No, but that's on the sofa. Not playing it, obviously.

0:05:30 > 0:05:34- But the watching of Wimbledon can very easily be sofa-based.- Yeah.

0:05:34 > 0:05:38I'm going to have to go for the most obvious one. I'm sorry.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Andy Murray.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42OK. Andy Murray.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43OK, well, let's see if that's right.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46Let's see how many of our 100 people said Andy Murray.

0:05:49 > 0:05:51It is right.

0:05:52 > 0:05:5451. It's not catastrophic.

0:05:54 > 0:05:56APPLAUSE

0:05:56 > 0:05:5851 for Andy Murray.

0:05:58 > 0:06:02Yeah, Andy Murray is a Scottish tennis player. Won in 2013.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04He's got two Rs,

0:06:04 > 0:06:07- so 33% of those six are R. - LAUGHTER

0:06:07 > 0:06:1216.5% M, 16.5% U, 16.5% A, 16.5% Y.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15- Yeah.- It's the constituent parts of his surname.- OK.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17- LAUGHTER - And he won Wimbledon.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20- There we go.- Absolutely perfect. - There we go.- Perfect.- There we go.

0:06:20 > 0:06:21Absolutely brilliant.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Now, Rhiannon, welcome back. Remind us what you do.

0:06:23 > 0:06:27I work in medical records at the hospital, my local one.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29So, is that a sort of filing thing or is that...?

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Yeah, it's just collecting in-patient records

0:06:31 > 0:06:34and getting them ready for outpatient clinics.

0:06:34 > 0:06:35I see. I see.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38And when you're not doing that, Rhiannon, what do you get up to?

0:06:38 > 0:06:40- Play the flute.- Mm-hm.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43Read, sew, watch TV.

0:06:43 > 0:06:47Good stuff. OK, now, Rhiannon, what are you going to go for?

0:06:47 > 0:06:50I'm rubbish at tennis.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Serena Williams.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54OK. Serena Williams, says Rhiannon.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56Let's see how many of our 100 people

0:06:56 > 0:06:58went with Serena Williams.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02Ooh. Bad luck, Rhiannon.

0:07:02 > 0:07:05I'm afraid Serena Williams is an incorrect answer.

0:07:05 > 0:07:06Scores you 100 points. Sorry.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Yeah, eight letters, of course - Williams -

0:07:09 > 0:07:1025% of which are L.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13Yeah, look at that. LAUGHTER

0:07:13 > 0:07:15- 25% of which are I as well. - There we are.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Yes.- Yeah. - I and L working hard there.- I know.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21- Doing 50% of the work.- Working hard for the Williams sisters.- Yeah.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23There we go. Thank you very much.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26OK, Corrine, welcome back. Corrine, remind us what you do.

0:07:26 > 0:07:31- I run a team of subcontractors that install kitchens.- Oh, yes.- Mm.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34- So, you're in a showroom full of kitchens...- Yes.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36- ..which in itself must feel quite homely.- Beautiful.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40Do you have a favourite one that you like to sort of drape yourself in?

0:07:40 > 0:07:42I'd be the customer from hell if I wanted one.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45I'd change my mind every time I went into the showroom, so...

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Well, that's nice. They're all vying to be your favourite.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50This is good. You're selling the place fantastically.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52And your interests outside of kitchens...

0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Mm-hm.- ..are what?- Formula One.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57- Ah.- I love to watch Formula One racing.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00- Ah. Very good. - And also comedy. I like live comedy.

0:08:00 > 0:08:02I want to do better than Richard Herring,

0:08:02 > 0:08:04and I haven't done that so far here.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06It's impossible to do worse, but you matched him.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08- You did match him. - SHE LAUGHS

0:08:08 > 0:08:10OK, now, Corrine, what would you like to go for?

0:08:10 > 0:08:13I think I'm going to say Boris Becker.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16OK. Boris Becker, says Corrine. Let's see if that's right.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18Let's see how many of our 100 people said Boris Becker.

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

0:08:22 > 0:08:26Well, of our correct answers, 51 was our high score

0:08:26 > 0:08:27and you've passed that a while back.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29APPLAUSE 28.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Not bad at all.

0:08:32 > 0:08:33Yeah, three wins for Becker.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35And you see, he scores more than Federer.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37- Yeah.- That can only be the name thing.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40You're right. Absolutely right. We're halfway through the round.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Let's look at the scores.

0:08:42 > 0:08:4419, the best score of the pass... Caitlin, very well done.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47..putting Caitlin and Tim at the top of the table there for now.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Then up to 28, where we find Corrine and James. That's more like it.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53Up to 51, Vicky and Mike, and then up to 100, I'm afraid,

0:08:53 > 0:08:54Rhiannon and Franklyn.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Franklyn, how good is your tennis?

0:08:56 > 0:08:58- Perfect.- Superb.- Yeah.

0:08:58 > 0:09:02Cos we need you to a ace it in this next pass

0:09:02 > 0:09:03to keep you in the game.

0:09:03 > 0:09:04We're coming back down the line now.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:09:09 > 0:09:12OK. Now, James, just remind us what you do.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14I'm a financial services auditor.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16What do you do when you're not doing that?

0:09:16 > 0:09:19Well, like my mum, I'm also a big fan of Formula One.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21I try and watch as much of that as we can.

0:09:21 > 0:09:22Do you ever watch it live?

0:09:22 > 0:09:24To be honest, the thing stopping us, funnily enough,

0:09:24 > 0:09:26is the traffic jams around Silverstone.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28If we could avoid that,

0:09:28 > 0:09:30perhaps win enough money to get a helicopter up there...

0:09:30 > 0:09:33- I was going to say just buy a jet pack.- Mm.

0:09:33 > 0:09:37OK, now, James, we are looking for the name - let us not forget -

0:09:37 > 0:09:42of any Wimbledon winner with seven letters or fewer in their name.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44OK. I'm going to play it relatively safe

0:09:44 > 0:09:46and go with Andre Agassi.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48Agassi, says James.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51OK, you've got to score 71 or less.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54You are going for Andre Agassi. Let's see if that's right.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Let's see how many of our 100 people said that. There's your red line.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02It's right and you are through. Very well done.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08It's a good answer. 18. APPLAUSE

0:10:08 > 0:10:10Takes your total up to 46. Very well done.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Well played, James. That's more like it, isn't it?

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Yeah, the winner in 1992.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19There we are. Thank you, Richard. Now then, Franklyn...

0:10:19 > 0:10:21- Hi.- ..welcome back to Pointless. - Thank you.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24- Remind us what you do.- I'm a customer assistant in a supermarket.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27When you're not working what do you like to get up to?

0:10:27 > 0:10:28I like to go on days out.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31I like walking, reading and being a TV extra.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33I once did a Comic Relief thing and turned up

0:10:33 > 0:10:36and everyone just assumed I was a TV extra.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39LAUGHTER No-one said a word to me.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41Everyone just looked right through me.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44- Sorry? - LAUGHTER

0:10:44 > 0:10:46Oh, dear. But I hope people aren't like that to you.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48- No, no. They're fine.- No, good.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51Now, Franklyn, you are the high scorers at this point,

0:10:51 > 0:10:53so we need a low score from you.

0:10:53 > 0:10:54This is the worst subject.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56The two ladies behind me are after taking my answers,

0:10:56 > 0:11:00so I've got one in mind, but I'm not sure of the first name.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03So, I'm just going to go for it and hope.

0:11:03 > 0:11:04Rafael Nadal.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06OK, Rafael Nadal. You said Rafael Nadal.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09OK, no red line for you as you're the high scorer,

0:11:09 > 0:11:13but let's see how many of our 100 people said Rafael Nadal.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15No.

0:11:15 > 0:11:16It's right.

0:11:21 > 0:11:2224.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25APPLAUSE Not bad. Not bad.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28You're still in with a shout, Franklyn. 124 is your total.

0:11:28 > 0:11:32Champion in 2008 and 2010, Rafa Nadal.

0:11:32 > 0:11:33Now, his surname has got five letters,

0:11:33 > 0:11:35- coming in way under what's needed. - Yeah.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37- 40% of his surname is A. - A, I know.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39LAUGHTER Extraordinary.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42- Without that, he'd be Ndl. - LAUGHTER

0:11:43 > 0:11:44He's a got a lot to thank A for.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Yeah. There we are. Thank you very much indeed.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50Now, Mike, welcome back. Remind us what you do, Mike.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53- I'm a shift leader in a pub chain. - Oh, where's your pub?

0:11:53 > 0:11:55- In Manchester.- Is it a massive pub?

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Um, not really,

0:11:57 > 0:11:59but it's by a cinema complex and that,

0:11:59 > 0:12:02- so it's pretty busy. - Ah, so, no, that is pretty big.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04I noticed that you and Vicky each introduce yourselves

0:12:04 > 0:12:06- as currently living in Manchester. - Yeah.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09That sounds like you're not planning to be there forever.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11We're from different places in the UK, obviously.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14- We've just moved up there.- OK. - But who knows where we'll be?

0:12:14 > 0:12:15Who knows? Exactly.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18OK, now, Mike, there you are on 51.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20If you can score 72 or less, you're through.

0:12:20 > 0:12:22What would you like to go for?

0:12:22 > 0:12:26I know she's a trainer, but I don't know if she's actually won it,

0:12:26 > 0:12:28- but Judy Murray. - MURMURING

0:12:28 > 0:12:30That's because they love that answer.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33LAUGHTER Judy Murray, says Mike.

0:12:33 > 0:12:34Well, Rhiannon and Franklyn

0:12:34 > 0:12:36very interested in the result of this.

0:12:36 > 0:12:37There is your red line.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40If you get below that with Judy Murray, you're through.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Has she ever won Wimbledon, though?

0:12:44 > 0:12:47No. I'm afraid not, Mike.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49I'm afraid that scores you 100 points

0:12:49 > 0:12:52and I'm afraid that takes your total up to an unbeatable 151.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Sorry, Mike. She came closer to winning Strictly Come Dancing

0:12:54 > 0:12:57- than Wimbledon. - LAUGHTER

0:12:57 > 0:12:59Thank you very much indeed.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Now, Tim, welcome. Listen, you can enjoy two things.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05The fact that Caitlin scored only 19, which is fantastic.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07I'm really impressed with her, actually.

0:13:07 > 0:13:08- So am I.- Really impressed.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11- And secondly, it doesn't matter what you score now.- Mm.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14You are through to Round Two. But, Tim, tell us about yourself.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17So, I am also a first year - well, going into second year -

0:13:17 > 0:13:19chemistry student at Cardiff University.

0:13:19 > 0:13:20Excellent.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23I've been working some events work this summer

0:13:23 > 0:13:25through a private events company,

0:13:25 > 0:13:28- which has been interesting. - Corporate events, things like that?

0:13:28 > 0:13:31Yeah, a few big parties as well, but...

0:13:31 > 0:13:33- That's quite fun. - Interestingly-sized budgets.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Interesting size budgets,

0:13:35 > 0:13:37so you've got big ideas for when you have your big leaving party

0:13:37 > 0:13:39- when you leave Cardiff. - Oh, yeah, yeah.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41Now, Tim, through to the next round.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44Doesn't matter what you score. Let's have a great answer.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46This is still a bit of a shot in the dark

0:13:46 > 0:13:48cos I don't know if he actually ever did win,

0:13:48 > 0:13:50but I'm going to go with Tim Henman.

0:13:50 > 0:13:52MURMURING They love that as well.

0:13:52 > 0:13:55LAUGHTER OK, let's find out. Did he win?

0:13:55 > 0:13:56Hmm, jeopardy.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59No red line for you. You're already through.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03No, an incorrect answer.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 119.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07Not a bad total then.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10I thought Serena Williams was going to be the worst answer.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13- How wrong I was. - LAUGHTER

0:14:13 > 0:14:14How wrong I was.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17I know people at home will have got some good answers,

0:14:17 > 0:14:18so let's go through.

0:14:18 > 0:14:19There's two pointless answers.

0:14:19 > 0:14:23A Czech guy called Jan Kodes won in 1973 when lots of people boycotted.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25Kodes was a pointless answer. And Evonne Cawley.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28She won it as Evonne Goolagong, then won it again as Evonne Cawley.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30She was a pointless answer.

0:14:30 > 0:14:321 point for Michael Stich.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34You'd have got 2 points for Leyton Hewitt and Jana Novotna.

0:14:34 > 0:14:373 for Bartoli, Stan Smith, Rod Laver, Ann Jones.

0:14:37 > 0:14:414 for Petra Kvitova. 7 points for Arthur Ashe and Martina Hingis.

0:14:41 > 0:14:448 for Edberg and Pat Cash.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47Ten for Billie Jean King. 13 for Chris Evert. 14, Virginia Wade.

0:14:47 > 0:14:5215, Jimmy Connors. 17, Sampras and McEnroe. 20 for Steffi Graf.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54And the top three. We've heard the top two.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57Andy Murray and Boris Becker, the two biggest scorers.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00And 26 points for Bjorn Borg.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Wonderful. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04Well, at the end of our first round,

0:15:04 > 0:15:06I'm sorry to say the pair with the high score

0:15:06 > 0:15:08is Mike and Vicky,

0:15:08 > 0:15:10our head-to-headers last time.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12So, we have to say goodbye to you. I'm so sorry.

0:15:12 > 0:15:16Far too soon, but anyway, thank you so much for playing. Mike and Vicky.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18APPLAUSE

0:15:20 > 0:15:23But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:15:28 > 0:15:29Well, look at that.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Down to three pairs, so well done, everyone,

0:15:31 > 0:15:34for surviving the axe this time.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37Well done on the far podium there, Corrine and James.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40Two correct answers and our lowest team score,

0:15:40 > 0:15:41so very well done.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43Best of luck to all three pairs.

0:15:43 > 0:15:46Our category for Round Two this afternoon...

0:15:46 > 0:15:47is History. It's History.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51Can you all therefore decide in your pairs who's going first and second?

0:15:51 > 0:15:54And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00OK, and the question concerns...

0:16:00 > 0:16:02the 15th century.

0:16:02 > 0:16:03The 15th century, Richard.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05I know, I know. It's before your time.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08On each board, we're going to give you six clues to the people,

0:16:08 > 0:16:11places and events that took place in the 15th century.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13Give us the most obscure answer you can.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15There's going to be 12 to have a go at at home,

0:16:15 > 0:16:16- so very best of luck. - OK, Thank you.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19Let's reveal our first board of clues. Here they come.

0:16:19 > 0:16:20Six of them this time.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48I'll read those all one last time.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13There we are. Tim, over to you.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16- Hmm.- What would you like to go for on this board?

0:17:16 > 0:17:18It's tricky.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21I think I'm going to go for the first one,

0:17:21 > 0:17:24again with a bit of a stab in the dark.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27And I'm going to go for St Andrews.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29St Andrews, says Tim. Let's see if that's right.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:17:34 > 0:17:35It's right.

0:17:38 > 0:17:4045. APPLAUSE

0:17:40 > 0:17:43Quite a high score, that. 45 for St Andrews.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Well played, Tim. That's a great answer.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49Yeah, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge both went to St Andrews.

0:17:49 > 0:17:53Very good. I hear their chemistry department is nothing on Cardiff's.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55- That's what I'm hearing.- Yeah.

0:17:55 > 0:17:56Thanks very much, Richard.

0:17:56 > 0:17:57Now, Rhiannon.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01I'm just going to go for the third one down. It's a complete guess.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Henry VIII.

0:18:03 > 0:18:04Henry VIII.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07Henry VIII says Rhiannon. Well, Tudor monarch.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10Let's see how many of our 100 people said Henry VIII.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16I'm afraid not Henry VIII.

0:18:16 > 0:18:17That scores you 100 points.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19Yeah, sorry, Rhiannon.

0:18:19 > 0:18:21I'll give all the correct answers at the end of the pass.

0:18:21 > 0:18:22Thanks very much indeed.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25Now then, James, that board is all yours.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27Do you want to just wander through it and fill in the blanks for us?

0:18:27 > 0:18:30I think I know most of them.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34The Renaissance artist is Leonardo da Vinci.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37The Tudor monarch, I think, was Henry IV.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40The peasant girl is Joan of Arc.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42I don't know the imperial palace complex,

0:18:42 > 0:18:47and Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile

0:18:47 > 0:18:50ruled modern-day Spain,

0:18:50 > 0:18:51which I think I'll give as my answer.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53OK, Spain, says James.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56Let's see how many of our 100 people said Spain.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00It is right.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02Well, 45 is our low score at this point

0:19:02 > 0:19:04and you pass it very comfortably.

0:19:04 > 0:19:0730. Very well done. APPLAUSE

0:19:07 > 0:19:0830 for Spain.

0:19:10 > 0:19:11Yeah, well played, James.

0:19:11 > 0:19:14Their marriage in fact united those two, Castile and Aragon.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Kind of lead to modern-day Spain.

0:19:16 > 0:19:20Now, Rhiannon, very strange symmetry in your two answers so far.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23In the first round, you gave us an eight-letter answer

0:19:23 > 0:19:25when we were looking for a seven-letter answer,

0:19:25 > 0:19:27and in this round, you gave us Henry VIII

0:19:27 > 0:19:30- and we were looking for Henry VII. - SHE LAUGHS

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Would've been a terrific answer as well.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34Would've scored you 17 points.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Well done if you said that at home.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38The Renaissance artist - James was right -

0:19:38 > 0:19:40was Leonardo da Vinci.

0:19:40 > 0:19:43Would've scored you 31. The peasant girl was Joan of Arc.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46That would've scored you 74. And do you know the imperial palace?

0:19:46 > 0:19:47I'll go for the Forbidden City.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50It is the Forbidden City. Would've scored you 12 points.

0:19:50 > 0:19:51Best answer on the board.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53- Well done if you said that. - Thank you very much.

0:19:53 > 0:19:56We're halfway through the round. Let's look at the scores.

0:19:56 > 0:19:5730, James. Well done.

0:19:57 > 0:19:58The lowest score of that pass.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01James and Corrine, once again looking very strong.

0:20:01 > 0:20:05Then up to 45 where Tim and Caitlin are. And then 100, I'm afraid,

0:20:05 > 0:20:06Rhiannon and Franklyn. So, Franklyn,

0:20:06 > 0:20:08- I've said this to you before.- Yep.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11We need a low score from you. Best of luck with that.

0:20:11 > 0:20:12We're coming back down the line now.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:20:17 > 0:20:18OK.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21We're going to put six more clues to 15th-century facts and figures

0:20:21 > 0:20:23on the board, and here they are.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51I'll read those all one last time.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19There we are. Corrine, we're over to you.

0:21:19 > 0:21:2469 or less gets you through to the head-to-head.

0:21:24 > 0:21:25OK.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27- I preferred the first board, I have to say.- Oh, I'm so sorry.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30I'm so sorry. SHE LAUGHS

0:21:30 > 0:21:36I think I'll go fairly safe and say Edward V

0:21:36 > 0:21:40and his brother Richard were last seen in the Tower of London.

0:21:40 > 0:21:41The Tower of London.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43OK, let's see. Here is your red line.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46Can you get below that with that Tower of London?

0:21:46 > 0:21:47How many of our 100 people said it?

0:21:50 > 0:21:52It's right.

0:21:52 > 0:21:56Well done. The Tower of London gets you into the head-to-head.

0:21:56 > 0:21:59APPLAUSE 41 is your score. 71 is your total.

0:22:01 > 0:22:05Yeah. Some say they were murdered by their uncle, Richard III.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07If you saw anything, please get in touch with the programme.

0:22:07 > 0:22:11LAUGHTER Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:22:11 > 0:22:12Now then, Franklyn.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14Yeah, again, another worst subject for me.

0:22:14 > 0:22:15I'm sorry.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18I'm just going to guess and go out with a bang.

0:22:18 > 0:22:22The third one down, Machu Picchu, India.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24India, says Franklyn.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26No red line for you as you're the highest scorers.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Let's see how many of our 100 people said India.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33I'm afraid that scores you 100 points.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36Takes your total up to 200. I'm sorry. 400 Club.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39I know. First new members of the 400 Club in a long time,

0:22:39 > 0:22:41so welcome in.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44But no, you'll be getting your membership pack in the post.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47The badges, the hats, all of that business.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49- Nice little plastic wallet as well. - Absolutely.

0:22:49 > 0:22:50And you're welcome to join us

0:22:50 > 0:22:53on our annual trip to Machu Picchu, but you have to find it.

0:22:53 > 0:22:55LAUGHTER

0:22:55 > 0:22:58- Thanks very much indeed. Now, Caitlin, great news.- Oh!- Great news.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01- You are through, come what may.- Yes.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04Do you want to talk through that board? Look, five unanswered clues.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07I mean, I'm afraid I can't do a lot of talking

0:23:07 > 0:23:11because I'm pretty stuck on most of the questions,

0:23:11 > 0:23:14but I think I'm going to go for the bottom one,

0:23:14 > 0:23:20and go for what I think is the answer of Eton.

0:23:20 > 0:23:22You're going to say Eton. Eton College, says Caitlin.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25Let's see if that's right. No red line as you're already through.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27How many of our 100 people said Eton?

0:23:30 > 0:23:31It's right.

0:23:33 > 0:23:3659. APPLAUSE

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Takes your total up to 104.

0:23:39 > 0:23:40Well done, Caitlin.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43Yeah, it was founded to provide free education to 70 poor boys,

0:23:43 > 0:23:45Eton College.

0:23:45 > 0:23:46Different times.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Now, let's go through the rest of these.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50- You don't the top one, I'm guessing.- I don't.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53Guru Nanak. That's the best answer up there.

0:23:53 > 0:23:543 points if you said that.

0:23:54 > 0:23:58- Henry V.- Agincourt. - Agincourt. That was 28.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01- And Machu Picchu is in...? - Peru.- Peru, yeah.

0:24:01 > 0:24:0355 points for that.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06- And the ruler of Wallachia? - Vlad the Impaler.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08Vlad the Impaler. The guy with the best nickname in history.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Vlad the Impaler. 17 points if you said that.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12There we are. Thank you very much.

0:24:12 > 0:24:13So, at the end of our second round,

0:24:13 > 0:24:17I'm afraid the pair we're sending home again with a high score of 200,

0:24:17 > 0:24:18it's Franklyn and Rhiannon.

0:24:18 > 0:24:19Sorry to be sending you home.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22Sorry to have given you a tough board. It's been great having you.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25Thank you so much for playing. Franklyn and Rhiannon.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28APPLAUSE

0:24:28 > 0:24:30But for Corrine and James and Caitlin and Tim,

0:24:30 > 0:24:32it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34APPLAUSE

0:24:36 > 0:24:39Very well done, Corrine and James, Caitlin and Tim.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41You're now one step closer to the final

0:24:41 > 0:24:43and a chance to play for that jackpot.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46I'd forgotten about the jackpot. It's currently standing at £4,000.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48That'll be exciting. APPLAUSE

0:24:50 > 0:24:52You know the deal. You can start playing as teams.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54You can chat before giving answers.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57First pair to win two questions will play for that jackpot.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Well, very well done, Corrine and James.

0:24:59 > 0:25:00Went out Round One last time.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02I feel there's some sort of poetic justice

0:25:02 > 0:25:04having you as our low-scoring pair, so well done.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06Caitlin and Tim, first appearance on the show.

0:25:06 > 0:25:10This is nice. It's family versus friends. Family versus friends.

0:25:10 > 0:25:12Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14APPLAUSE

0:25:18 > 0:25:23OK. Here's your first question. And it concerns...

0:25:23 > 0:25:24Popular Artists.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26Popular Artists. Richard.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28Yeah, we're going to show you five pictures now

0:25:28 > 0:25:29of big-selling music artists.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31Can you tell us who they are, please?

0:25:31 > 0:25:34OK. So, let's reveal our five pictures, and here they come.

0:25:34 > 0:25:35We have got...

0:26:01 > 0:26:02There we are.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04Five popular music artists.

0:26:04 > 0:26:07Corrine and James, you're our low scorers so you go first.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09SHE WHISPERS INDISTINCTLY

0:26:09 > 0:26:10- WHISPERS:- Yeah, I know,

0:26:10 > 0:26:12but I think we should go for...

0:26:12 > 0:26:13- D.- OK.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16We're going to go with D,

0:26:16 > 0:26:18and we think that's Neil Diamond.

0:26:18 > 0:26:20D, Neil Diamond, say Corrine and James. Neil Diamond.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Now, Caitlin and Tim, talk us through that board.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25- Eugh.- Wow.

0:26:25 > 0:26:26Um, I don't know.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28We were going to go with D as well,

0:26:28 > 0:26:30I think, probably.

0:26:30 > 0:26:31But I think we're going

0:26:31 > 0:26:33- to go with C.- Yes.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35My sister is in love with him,

0:26:35 > 0:26:37and so I have to do it just for her.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39I think we're going to go with C,

0:26:39 > 0:26:41which is Paolo Nutini.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Paolo Nutini. Paolo Nutini, say Caitlin and Tim.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47OK, so, Corrine and James have said Neil Diamond for D.

0:26:47 > 0:26:50Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.

0:26:52 > 0:26:53It's right.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00Not bad. 18.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02APPLAUSE 18 for Neil Diamond.

0:27:04 > 0:27:08Meanwhile, Caitlin and Tim have gone for C and said Paulo Nutini.

0:27:08 > 0:27:09Let's see if that's right.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11Let's see how many of our 100 people agree with them.

0:27:13 > 0:27:14It's right.

0:27:16 > 0:27:17Has to beat 18.

0:27:18 > 0:27:20It's close. Look at that. Very well done.

0:27:20 > 0:27:225 for Paulo Nutini. APPLAUSE

0:27:22 > 0:27:24Your sister has done you proud there.

0:27:24 > 0:27:28Well done, Caitlin and Tim. After one question, they're up 1-0.

0:27:28 > 0:27:29Yeah, everyone on this board

0:27:29 > 0:27:32had one of the top-40 bestselling albums of 2014.

0:27:32 > 0:27:33- Wow.- Yep.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35- A is...- Andre Rieu.

0:27:35 > 0:27:37Andre Rieu.

0:27:37 > 0:27:39Absolutely. And that would've scored you 22 points.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41- B?- Is Ellie Goulding.

0:27:41 > 0:27:42B is Ellie Golding.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44Yeah. She would've scored you 46.

0:27:45 > 0:27:46Much higher than Paulo.

0:27:46 > 0:27:48And E, of course,

0:27:48 > 0:27:49is Barbra Streisand.

0:27:49 > 0:27:53And she would've scored you 65 points.

0:27:53 > 0:27:55Wonderful. Thank you very much indeed.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57OK, here comes your second question.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59Caitlin and Tim get to go first, but, Corrine and James,

0:27:59 > 0:28:01you have to win it to stay in the game.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03So, best of luck. It concerns...

0:28:04 > 0:28:06the Turner Prize.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08The Turner Prize, Richard.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10I'm going to show you five clues to facts about the Turner Prize.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12Give us the most obscure answer.

0:28:12 > 0:28:15OK, let's reveal our five Turner clues, and here they are.

0:28:16 > 0:28:17We've got...

0:28:34 > 0:28:36I'll read those all again.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56Now then, Caitlin and Tim, you'll go first.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02- WHISPERS:- I should know this. Turner was brought up in Salisbury.

0:29:02 > 0:29:04- WHISPERS:- Yeah? - Painted the cathedral.

0:29:05 > 0:29:09Um, the decade in which the prize was first awarded, if I'm right,

0:29:09 > 0:29:16then this prize was for someone who painted the cathedral in Salisbury,

0:29:16 > 0:29:18and I'm from there.

0:29:18 > 0:29:22And I think we're going to go for something like 1910

0:29:22 > 0:29:25for the decade in which the prize was first awarded.

0:29:25 > 0:29:28- 1910.- Yeah.- OK, 1910, say Caitlin and Tim.

0:29:28 > 0:29:31Right, Corrine and James, what would you like to go for?

0:29:31 > 0:29:33- Do you want to talk us through that board?- No.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36This is possibly the worst board we could've had,

0:29:36 > 0:29:38so we're not too sure.

0:29:38 > 0:29:41We were going to take a punt on the decade, but...

0:29:41 > 0:29:43You still can.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45Well, that seemed like quite an educated guess,

0:29:45 > 0:29:48so we're going to go for the artist noticed for his spot paintings.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50- We think that might be Damien Hirst. - Damien Hirst. OK.

0:29:50 > 0:29:52In the order they were given,

0:29:52 > 0:29:54Caitlin and Tim said the 1910s for the decade

0:29:54 > 0:29:56in which the Turner was first awarded.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said 1910.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04Oh. Not the 1910s, I'm afraid.

0:30:04 > 0:30:06Now, Corrine and James have gone for Damien Hirst,

0:30:06 > 0:30:08the artist noted for his spot paintings.

0:30:08 > 0:30:10Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:30:10 > 0:30:12All you have to be is right and you'll win the point.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16- Very well done.- Well done.

0:30:22 > 0:30:24APPLAUSE 9 is what that scores,

0:30:24 > 0:30:25but crucially, it was right,

0:30:25 > 0:30:29- which means, after two questions, it's 1-1.- Yeah, well played.

0:30:29 > 0:30:32In fact, every single answer on this board is in single figures.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34Might as well call it Unpopular Artists.

0:30:34 > 0:30:37The decade in which the prize was first awarded,

0:30:37 > 0:30:39you would've got to the final if you got this.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41You were so close with the 1910s. You were just 70 years out.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44- LAUGHTER - 1850.- It's the 1980s.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47- 1980s.- The 1980s. It's not the 1850s.

0:30:47 > 0:30:48No.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50The 1980s. Much more modern.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53- I don't think it's to do with Salisbury Cathedral.- It's not.

0:30:53 > 0:30:546 points for that.

0:30:54 > 0:30:59The first three names of Turner are Joseph Mallord William.

0:30:59 > 0:31:03Very well done if you got that. Would've scored you 3 points.

0:31:03 > 0:31:05- The only potter?- Grayson Perry. - The wonderful Grayson Perry.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08Of course it was. Would've scored you 7 points.

0:31:08 > 0:31:09- And the band?- The K Found...

0:31:09 > 0:31:10- It was the KLF.- The KLF.

0:31:10 > 0:31:11- Yeah.- Exactly that.

0:31:11 > 0:31:13Would've scored you 4 points.

0:31:13 > 0:31:14Oh, what they did,

0:31:14 > 0:31:17they handed it over cos they thought it was the worst piece of art.

0:31:17 > 0:31:20- Yeah.- And they had £40,000 nailed in cash to a board,

0:31:20 > 0:31:22and if she didn't accept it immediately,

0:31:22 > 0:31:25- they were going to set fire to it. - Yeah.- You kind of have to take...

0:31:25 > 0:31:28- She did. She took it and she gave it to young artists.- She did.

0:31:28 > 0:31:31- Which I think was the classy thing to do.- Lovely Rachel Whiteread.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34We think she's... Big fans of hers. Thank you very much.

0:31:34 > 0:31:35Here comes your third question.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37Whoever wins this goes through to the final

0:31:37 > 0:31:40and plays for that jackpot, so best of luck to both pairs.

0:31:40 > 0:31:41It concerns...

0:31:42 > 0:31:44Welsh Place Names.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47HE LAUGHS Welsh Place Names.

0:31:47 > 0:31:48I know what's going to happen here.

0:31:48 > 0:31:51You're going to have to do some pronunciation here.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53We're going to show you the names of five Welsh places now

0:31:53 > 0:31:57with their English names in brackets with the first and last letters.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59We need you to tell us those English names, please.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02- Might be helpful if you're at university in a Welsh...- Yeah.

0:32:02 > 0:32:05I don't know. Let's find out.

0:32:05 > 0:32:09Apologies to any Welsh speakers, particularly my mother-in-law.

0:32:09 > 0:32:13Let's reveal our five Welsh place names.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24I'll read those again. Apologies. Apologies.

0:32:24 > 0:32:27I'm trying my best, but it almost makes it more agonising.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39APPLAUSE No, really not, no.

0:32:42 > 0:32:44There we are. You get the idea.

0:32:44 > 0:32:47Corrine and James, what would you like to go for?

0:32:47 > 0:32:50- WHISPERS:- Where did David go to school?- WHISPERS:- Brecon.

0:32:50 > 0:32:53SHE WHISPERS INDISTINCTLY

0:32:53 > 0:32:55- Hmm.- OK.

0:32:55 > 0:32:57Go with Swansea then. Yeah? OK.

0:32:57 > 0:33:02We're going to hope that even though our competitors

0:33:02 > 0:33:04attend university in Wales,

0:33:04 > 0:33:07they don't actually know much about it,

0:33:07 > 0:33:10and we're going to go with the bottom one for Swansea.

0:33:10 > 0:33:16Swansea. Swansea, say Corrine and James for Abertawe.

0:33:16 > 0:33:20Now, Caitlin and Tim, do you want to talk us through the board?

0:33:20 > 0:33:23I think we know the obvious one -

0:33:23 > 0:33:25we would have to - which is Cardiff.

0:33:25 > 0:33:26The second one down.

0:33:26 > 0:33:29But I think we're looking for one

0:33:29 > 0:33:31that is perhaps a bit more pointless.

0:33:31 > 0:33:35Somewhere in this hollow shell of a head there's got to be

0:33:35 > 0:33:37a Welsh place name in English here.

0:33:38 > 0:33:40We're going to have to go with Cardiff.

0:33:40 > 0:33:41- OK, Cardiff. - That's all we've got.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44OK, so, we have Swansea and we have Cardiff.

0:33:44 > 0:33:47Corrine and James have gone for Swansea. Let's see if that's right.

0:33:47 > 0:33:49Let's see how many people said it.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54It's right.

0:33:54 > 0:33:57- Ooh.- 64. APPLAUSE

0:33:57 > 0:34:0064 for Swansea.

0:34:00 > 0:34:03Quite high there. Now, Caitlin and Tim have gone for Cardiff.

0:34:03 > 0:34:04Let's see if that's right.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07Let's see how many of our 100 people said Cardiff.

0:34:10 > 0:34:11It's right.

0:34:11 > 0:34:1586 for Cardiff, I'm afraid. APPLAUSE.

0:34:15 > 0:34:18Two quite high scores there, but, Corrine and James, very well done.

0:34:18 > 0:34:20After three questions, your through to the final, 2-1.

0:34:20 > 0:34:23Yeah. I know all of our Welsh viewers would've got these.

0:34:23 > 0:34:25I'm sure they'll know two of them, certainly.

0:34:25 > 0:34:27One of them could be a couple of things.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30- The top on could only be... - Bridgend.- Bridgend, yeah.

0:34:30 > 0:34:32That would've scored you 16.

0:34:32 > 0:34:36- This next one is the best answer on the board. It's Cardigan.- Cardigan.

0:34:36 > 0:34:37Cardigan.

0:34:37 > 0:34:39And that would've scored you 8 points.

0:34:39 > 0:34:43- And then the next one.- Neath. - Neath, of course it is.

0:34:43 > 0:34:45And that would've scored you 28.

0:34:45 > 0:34:47So, Cardigan the best answer on that board.

0:34:47 > 0:34:48Thank you very much indeed.

0:34:48 > 0:34:51So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:34:51 > 0:34:52it's Caitlin and Tim.

0:34:52 > 0:34:54Fell foul on the Welsh place names.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57I really thought that couldn't have been easier for you,

0:34:57 > 0:34:59but we'll see you again next time, Caitlin and Tim.

0:34:59 > 0:35:01Thanks very much for playing. Caitlin and Tim.

0:35:01 > 0:35:03APPLAUSE

0:35:05 > 0:35:08But for Corrine and James, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:11 > 0:35:13Very well done, Corrine and James.

0:35:13 > 0:35:15You've seen off all the competition

0:35:15 > 0:35:18and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:23 > 0:35:25You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:35:25 > 0:35:29At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £4,000.

0:35:29 > 0:35:31There we are. APPLAUSE

0:35:34 > 0:35:36As always, you get to choose your category

0:35:36 > 0:35:37from the four things on the board.

0:35:37 > 0:35:40Let's see what today's selection looks like.

0:35:50 > 0:35:52Not Horse Racing.

0:35:52 > 0:35:54- No.- No, definitely not Horse Racing.

0:35:54 > 0:35:56Singers Called Billy is a bit weird.

0:35:56 > 0:35:58New Year, I'm quite tempted by, because it seems so...

0:35:58 > 0:36:01- It could be anything.- Mm. Yeah.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03- Or American Crime Writers. - I don't know many.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05- We don't really read crime, do we, though?- I think New Year.- Yeah.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08- You want to have New Year? - Yeah.- OK.- We'll go with New Year.

0:36:08 > 0:36:10- New Year it is, Richard. - OK, very best of luck.

0:36:10 > 0:36:12Three very different questions here.

0:36:12 > 0:36:14We're looking for anyone who received an acting credit

0:36:14 > 0:36:17in the 2011 film New Year's Eve.

0:36:17 > 0:36:21We are looking for any dames or knights that were created

0:36:21 > 0:36:24in the 2015 New Year's Honours list.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26Or we are looking for any country

0:36:26 > 0:36:29which reaches midnight on December 31 at the same time

0:36:29 > 0:36:31or after the UK, please.

0:36:31 > 0:36:34So, cast of New Years Eve, according to IMDb,

0:36:34 > 0:36:37dames and knights from the 2015 New Year's Honours, and countries

0:36:37 > 0:36:40who celebrate new year after or at the same time as the UK.

0:36:40 > 0:36:41- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.

0:36:41 > 0:36:45OK, as always, you've got one minute to come up with three answers.

0:36:45 > 0:36:46All you need to win that jackpot

0:36:46 > 0:36:48is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:36:48 > 0:36:50- Are you ready?- Mm.- Yes.

0:36:50 > 0:36:53OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.

0:36:53 > 0:36:54Your time starts now.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57OK, well, New Year's Eve, the film, had absolutely everybody in it...

0:36:57 > 0:37:00- Oh.- ..and I can't think of anybody who's in it...

0:37:00 > 0:37:02- OK.- ..apart from, I think, Julia Roberts was in it,

0:37:02 > 0:37:05- but that's going to be a big name star.- Yeah, yeah. OK.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07Dames and knights of the 2015...

0:37:07 > 0:37:10I did say to you, "If he can get one, anyone can get one," didn't I?

0:37:10 > 0:37:11I can't remember...

0:37:11 > 0:37:15Didn't Lenny Henry get one this time around for Comic Relief?

0:37:15 > 0:37:17I'm not sure if that was a knighthood or not.

0:37:18 > 0:37:20OK, so, we've got that.

0:37:20 > 0:37:22- Who celebrates New Year...? - At the same time as us.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24Those times are always after ours?

0:37:24 > 0:37:29- At the same time. Well, it'll be going west from us.- Mm.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32So, what's that small set of islands that's in the middle

0:37:32 > 0:37:35of the Atlantic?

0:37:35 > 0:37:38- I've got no idea.- OK. - THEY LAUGH

0:37:38 > 0:37:41- So, what about a South American country?- Yeah, OK.

0:37:41 > 0:37:44- Brazil.- Brazil?- Ten seconds left. - What about Peru?

0:37:44 > 0:37:47- Peru.- Peru.- Peru, yeah. - OK, go with Peru.- Yeah.- OK.

0:37:47 > 0:37:48What else are going to go with?

0:37:48 > 0:37:50We'll go with Julia Roberts, Lenny Henry

0:37:50 > 0:37:53- and Peru.- All right.- OK.

0:37:53 > 0:37:56OK. Sounds like you've arrived at your answers. Your is time up.

0:37:56 > 0:37:58What are your three answers.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01OK, for the cast of New Year's Eve, we're going to go for Julia Roberts.

0:38:01 > 0:38:03Julia Roberts.

0:38:03 > 0:38:06Dames and knights in the 2015 New Year's Honours,

0:38:06 > 0:38:08- we're going to say Lenny Henry. - Lenny Henry.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10And for the countries,

0:38:10 > 0:38:13we're hoping that Peru might be a right answer for that.

0:38:13 > 0:38:14And Peru. OK.

0:38:14 > 0:38:16Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:16 > 0:38:19- You think Peru, don't you? - Peru.- Peru goes last.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21- Least likely to be pointless? - Julia Roberts.- Julia Roberts.

0:38:21 > 0:38:23And then Lenny Henry in the middle.

0:38:23 > 0:38:26Let's put those up on the board in that order, and here they are.

0:38:26 > 0:38:28We have got Julia Roberts,

0:38:28 > 0:38:30we've got Lenny Henry and we've got Peru.

0:38:30 > 0:38:32Well, very best of luck. Three good answers there.

0:38:32 > 0:38:35Let's hope one of those wins that jackpot for you.

0:38:35 > 0:38:38£4,000. It's turning into quite a nice little pot there.

0:38:38 > 0:38:41What would you do with that if you won it, Corrine?

0:38:41 > 0:38:45I think with my half I'd like to take my mother on a river cruise

0:38:45 > 0:38:48down the Loire Valley in France.

0:38:48 > 0:38:49- Oh, that's nice.- Yeah.

0:38:49 > 0:38:52Very good answer. Lovely. James, how about you?

0:38:52 > 0:38:54Well, I'd like to go to New York again.

0:38:54 > 0:38:57I've only been once very briefly, and I'd love to go again.

0:38:57 > 0:38:59And I'm looking out for a new tattoo,

0:38:59 > 0:39:01so perhaps if I win the money from Pointless,

0:39:01 > 0:39:03I might get something Pointless related as a tattoo.

0:39:03 > 0:39:05How many tattoos have you got, James?

0:39:05 > 0:39:06I've only got five,

0:39:06 > 0:39:09but I take a long time considering what's going to be next.

0:39:09 > 0:39:10- Only five. OK.- Only five?- Only five.

0:39:10 > 0:39:13Can't remember the last time I met someone who had only five tattoos.

0:39:13 > 0:39:16- I know. Weird.- That's weird. - Very strange.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18OK, very best of luck. Your first answer was Julia Roberts.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20In this case, we were looking for cast members

0:39:20 > 0:39:22of the film New Year's Eve.

0:39:22 > 0:39:25Let's find out if it's pointless. If it is, it'll win you £4,000.

0:39:25 > 0:39:27How many people said Julia Roberts?

0:39:31 > 0:39:33- Oh.- Hmm.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35An incorrect answer, I'm afraid.

0:39:35 > 0:39:36Julia Roberts not in New Year's Eve,

0:39:36 > 0:39:39which means you only have two more shots at today's jackpot.

0:39:39 > 0:39:41Your next answer was Lenny Henry.

0:39:41 > 0:39:44In this case we were looking for New Year's Honours recipients

0:39:44 > 0:39:46of dames or knighthoods in 2015.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49Let's find out how many of our 100 people said Lenny Henry.

0:39:49 > 0:39:51For £4,000, is it pointless?

0:39:53 > 0:39:55Oh, bad luck!

0:39:57 > 0:39:59Oh, I'm afraid not in the New Year's Honours,

0:39:59 > 0:40:02which means you only have one more shot at today's jackpot.

0:40:02 > 0:40:05Everything is now riding on your final answer, which is Peru.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07In this case, we were looking for anywhere

0:40:07 > 0:40:12that celebrates New Year's Eve at the same time or after the UK.

0:40:12 > 0:40:14For £4,000, is Peru pointless?

0:40:18 > 0:40:19It's right.

0:40:19 > 0:40:22Well, your first answer was Julia Roberts. That was incorrect.

0:40:22 > 0:40:24Your second answer was Lenny Henry.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26That, I'm afraid, was also incorrect.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29Peru now taking us down in single figures. Down it goes.

0:40:29 > 0:40:31- Still going... - Oh!- Aw!- 3.

0:40:31 > 0:40:33APPLAUSE

0:40:34 > 0:40:353.

0:40:38 > 0:40:40Oh.

0:40:40 > 0:40:42There must be Gloucestershire tattoo artists

0:40:42 > 0:40:45who are just getting their inks out there and then...

0:40:45 > 0:40:48I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer,

0:40:48 > 0:40:50so you don't win today's jackpot of £4,000.

0:40:50 > 0:40:52That will roll over onto the next show.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54But it's been great having you on two shows.

0:40:54 > 0:40:56Much better performance on today's show.

0:40:56 > 0:40:58We had to say goodbye far too soon last time,

0:40:58 > 0:41:01but don't forget, you get to take home a Pointless trophy each.

0:41:01 > 0:41:03Very well done. Corrine and James.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05- APPLAUSE - Thank you.

0:41:08 > 0:41:09Yeah, well played today.

0:41:09 > 0:41:12Lenny Henry was knighted in the Birthday Honours list,

0:41:12 > 0:41:14not the New Year's Honours list. You know what?

0:41:14 > 0:41:16You did the hard work of working out

0:41:16 > 0:41:18anywhere west of the UK would've been a correct answer.

0:41:18 > 0:41:20There's half the world there.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22There's so many pointless answers there.

0:41:22 > 0:41:24So many people at home would've gotten pointless answers.

0:41:24 > 0:41:26We'll go through those in a moment.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29We'll start, though, with the cast of New Year's Eve.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33Cary Elwes was a pointless answer.

0:41:33 > 0:41:35Hilary Swank, Jon Bon Jovi, Michelle Pfeiffer.

0:41:35 > 0:41:36As you say, it's got lots of people.

0:41:36 > 0:41:39The only people who scored points, though, were Robert De Niro,

0:41:39 > 0:41:42Zac Efron, Ashton Kutcher and Sarah Jessica Parker.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44If you said anyone else, pointless answer.

0:41:44 > 0:41:46Let's look at those knights and dames.

0:41:48 > 0:41:52Dame Mary Quant. Dame Esther Rantzen.

0:41:52 > 0:41:53John Hurt was a pointless answer.

0:41:53 > 0:41:57Martyn Poliakoff, he's a professor of chemistry at Nottingham.

0:41:57 > 0:42:00If you haven't seen, he does videos all about the elements

0:42:00 > 0:42:02on their website. They're absolutely brilliant.

0:42:02 > 0:42:05If you want to know about your periodic table, he's great.

0:42:05 > 0:42:07Stephen Poliakoff's brother as well, Martyn Poliakoff.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10Now, let's take a look at these countries. There's so many.

0:42:10 > 0:42:13A lot of African countries are on the same time zone as us,

0:42:13 > 0:42:15and then lots more besides.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17So, you could've had Ghana, Morocco, the Bahamas.

0:42:17 > 0:42:19Uruguay, a pointless answer.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22You could've had - listen up, everyone at home -

0:42:22 > 0:42:24Antigua and Barbuda, Belize, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde,

0:42:24 > 0:42:27Cote d'Ivoire, Dominica, Dominican Republic, El Salvador,

0:42:27 > 0:42:30Grenada, Guatemala, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana,

0:42:30 > 0:42:34Haiti, Honduras, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Nicaragua,

0:42:34 > 0:42:36Paraguay, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia,

0:42:36 > 0:42:39St Vincent and the Grenadines, Sao Tome and Principe, Senegal,

0:42:39 > 0:42:43Sierra Leone, Surinam, the Gambia, Togo and Trinidad and Tobago.

0:42:43 > 0:42:44All of those were pointless answers.

0:42:44 > 0:42:46Very well done if you said any of those at home.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49APPLAUSE

0:42:50 > 0:42:53But, yeah, as I say, as soon as you've done the hard work

0:42:53 > 0:42:55of working out where it is,

0:42:55 > 0:42:57there's lots of pointless answers out there,

0:42:57 > 0:42:59and I'm sorry Peru was not one of them.

0:42:59 > 0:43:01Thanks very much, Richard.

0:43:01 > 0:43:03Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you,

0:43:03 > 0:43:04but thanks for playing.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06Great to have you here. Great contestants.

0:43:06 > 0:43:08Corrine and James. APPLAUSE

0:43:10 > 0:43:12Sadly, Corrine and James didn't win our jackpot today,

0:43:12 > 0:43:14which means it rolls over onto the next show

0:43:14 > 0:43:16when we will be playing for £5,000.

0:43:16 > 0:43:18Join us next time to see if someone can win it.

0:43:18 > 0:43:20- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22And it's goodbye for me. Goodbye.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24APPLAUSE
