0:00:39 > 0:00:41This is my friend, Liz, and we come from Brighton.
0:00:41 > 0:00:42Couple number two.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Alexander, my name's Ian.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46This is my wife, Suzanne and we're from Somerset.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Couple number three.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Hi, I'm Jit.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51This is my friend, Bepin, and we're both from north-west London.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53And finally, couple number four.
0:00:53 > 0:00:54Hi, my name's Anne.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57This is my daughter, Sarah, and we're from near Kirkby Lonsdale.
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 to the show.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Lovely to have you here. We will find out more about each of you
0:01:06 > 0:01:08throughout the show, as it goes along.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:11 > 0:01:12With an intellect so towering
0:01:12 > 0:01:14old woman abseil down the side of it for charity,
0:01:14 > 0:01:16it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18- Hiya. - APPLAUSE
0:01:18 > 0:01:20Hi, everybody.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24- How are you?- I'm very well.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26- Have you got over the excitement of...- Nope.- ..the last show?
0:01:26 > 0:01:28Nope, and I won't for months to come.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Lovely Pauline and Sue, who walked away with our jackpot,
0:01:31 > 0:01:34the biggest jackpot we've had since we introduced our new endgame,
0:01:34 > 0:01:36which is a long time ago.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38£11,000, they walked away with.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42Justine Henin won them 11 grand, didn't she? Which was great.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Very pleased for them.
0:01:44 > 0:01:45I apologise to all eight of you.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48I know that's terrible news.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51But also, four new pairs come in, so we don't know anybody here yet.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53I will say though, on podium four,
0:01:53 > 0:01:56if the BBC are looking to replace the test card...
0:01:56 > 0:01:57LAUGHTER
0:01:57 > 0:01:59- ..what a great shot that would be. - Look at that.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02That's got everything in it. Every colour you need. Look.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04I mean, that's been here a long time, hasn't it?
0:02:04 > 0:02:06- It's a bit tired, that one.- Yeah.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08So, it should be an absolute cracker.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Back to £1,000, but lots of lovely questions.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Eight new people to get to know,
0:02:12 > 0:02:14which we're looking forward to very much and...
0:02:14 > 0:02:16it's just going to be fun...
0:02:16 > 0:02:18- It's just...- ..without the pressure of that enormous jackpot.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21- It was onerous, wasn't it? - It really...
0:02:21 > 0:02:23- That £11,000 jackpot. - Who wants to win that? No-one.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24Nobody does.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26The looks of relief on everybody's faces
0:02:26 > 0:02:29- when they discovered it was gone. - Yeah. Yes. Absolutely.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32They weren't going to have to worry about security on the way home.
0:02:32 > 0:02:33Thank you. There we are.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34Now, Sue and Pauline won the jackpot,
0:02:34 > 0:02:36as you may have gathered, last time,
0:02:36 > 0:02:38so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.
0:02:38 > 0:02:39There we are.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:42 > 0:02:47APPLAUSE
0:02:47 > 0:02:49OK. All you have to remember is this -
0:02:49 > 0:02:51the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:51 > 0:02:52will be eliminated.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54That's all you have to remember.
0:02:54 > 0:02:55Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Our first category this afternoon...
0:02:59 > 0:03:00It's Words.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Can you all decide, in your pairs, who's going to go first,
0:03:03 > 0:03:04who's going to go second?
0:03:04 > 0:03:07And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11OK. Let's find out what the question is.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:03:15 > 0:03:20as many words ending in M-A-T-E as they could.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Words ending in M-A-T-E, Richard.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24We are looking for any word in the English language,
0:03:24 > 0:03:27according to Oxforddictionaries.com, that ends M-A-T-E.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Please, as always, no hyphenated words, no proper nouns
0:03:30 > 0:03:33and we won't accept the word "mate" itself.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35It would be a spectacularly poor answer anyway,
0:03:35 > 0:03:37but we won't accept it.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40OK. Thank you very much indeed.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42- Are you thinking of one? - I'm thinking.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Liz, a warm welcome.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45Great to have you here from Brighton.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47What do you do, Liz?
0:03:47 > 0:03:48A lot of things, actually,
0:03:48 > 0:03:50none of them particularly well.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53- That's perfect. That's exactly what I do, too.- Yes.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55I was an infant teacher for 30 years
0:03:55 > 0:03:59and now I just teach, one morning a week, English to adults.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02What else do you do on the other days of the week?
0:04:02 > 0:04:04I like writing, which is how I know Julie.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07We were at a writing group together and we still are.
0:04:07 > 0:04:08So, what do you do? Write short stories?
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Yes. Short stories. Yes.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12What's the criticism like?
0:04:12 > 0:04:13Very kind, usually.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16I mean, it's not much good saying, "That's lovely, dear,"
0:04:16 > 0:04:18- because that's not very constructive...- No.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20..but, you know, people, sort of, are kind to start with
0:04:20 > 0:04:23and then they give you constructive criticism.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24OK, very good.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28Now, Liz, always tough having to go first in these Words rounds.
0:04:28 > 0:04:29The word I thought of was...
0:04:29 > 0:04:31consummate.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Consummate.
0:04:33 > 0:04:34"Consummate," says Liz.
0:04:34 > 0:04:35Let's see if that's right.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50There we are. APPLAUSE
0:04:50 > 0:04:5315 for consummate.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57Yeah, I think we all know what "consummate" means, as well.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58Don't we? Just draw a veil over it.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Typical. As soon as you get people from Brighton on...
0:05:01 > 0:05:03- Well, I'm sorry. - But it could be consummate,
0:05:03 > 0:05:04as in, "The consummate professional."
0:05:04 > 0:05:06There you are, you see?
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Or the consummate where you consummated your marriage.
0:05:08 > 0:05:09LAUGHTER
0:05:09 > 0:05:11How did you know that?
0:05:11 > 0:05:13LAUGHTER
0:05:13 > 0:05:14Thank you very much indeed.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Now, Ian, a warm welcome to Pointless. Here from Somerset.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- Where about in Somerset are you?- Near Wells.
0:05:19 > 0:05:20Near Wells? Beautiful, beautiful.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22And what do you do, Ian?
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- I'm a chartered accountant. - Chartered accountant.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Have you been doing that for years and years?
0:05:26 > 0:05:29A long time, yeah. I work for myself, work from home.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31That's nice. This is very nice.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34But it gets very busy, obviously, at the end of the tax year.
0:05:34 > 0:05:35Then do you ease off?
0:05:35 > 0:05:37The beginning of February, you all go off on holiday, do you?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39- Exactly. Yep.- Perfect.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41And what are your hobbies, Ian?
0:05:41 > 0:05:42Shooting is my big hobby.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- Clay pigeons?- Clay pigeon shooting.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47- All sorts of shooting, really. - I see. OK.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Now, Ian,
0:05:49 > 0:05:52again, still tough at the first half of this round
0:05:52 > 0:05:53to have to come up with a word.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Liz has set the bar very high.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58What would you like to go for?
0:05:58 > 0:05:59Penultimate.
0:05:59 > 0:06:00Penultimate.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04A little buzz there from the audience.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Penultimate. Very popular choice there.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Let's see how many of our 100 people went for that.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Look at that. One! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:06:21 > 0:06:23One for penultimate.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Very well done indeed, Ian.
0:06:26 > 0:06:27Yeah. "Last but one."
0:06:27 > 0:06:30So, actually in the exactly the wrong place to give that answer.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33On the way back, that would have been a lovely answer, wouldn't it?
0:06:33 > 0:06:34- Wouldn't it?- Our penultimate answer.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Thank you, Richard.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Bepin, welcome to Pointless.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Great to have you here. What do you do, Bepin?
0:06:40 > 0:06:42I am also a chartered accountant.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Also a chartered accountant? Do you work from home?
0:06:44 > 0:06:47No, I work in the office, sadly.
0:06:47 > 0:06:48Maybe it's good to get out of home.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50If I were a chartered accountant working at home,
0:06:50 > 0:06:52I'm trying to think
0:06:52 > 0:06:54how much chartered accounting I would get done.
0:06:54 > 0:06:55The answer is about that, I think.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- Minimum.- Yeah.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59What do you do when you're not working?
0:06:59 > 0:07:03I like to play a bit of golf, do a bit of gardening...
0:07:03 > 0:07:04bit of travel when I can fit it in.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06Very good. OK.
0:07:06 > 0:07:07- Now, Bepin.- Yep.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Words ending M-A-T-E.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12I'm going to go for climate.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14"Climate," says Bepin.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Let's see if that's right.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Let's see how many of our 100 people said, "Climate."
0:07:25 > 0:07:2628.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28APPLAUSE
0:07:28 > 0:07:3228 for climate.
0:07:32 > 0:07:3428 points, but scientists predict
0:07:34 > 0:07:35that in five years' time,
0:07:35 > 0:07:37that will score 33 or 34.
0:07:37 > 0:07:38LAUGHTER
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Now, Sarah, welcome.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Here, from near Kirkby Lonsdale.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46How beautiful, Kirkby Lonsdale.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48And to be near Kirkby Lonsdale.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51- Does that mean you're in the middle of nowhere?- Yes. Very much.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53But what a beautiful nowhere to be in the middle of.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55- Lovely place, yeah.- Yeah.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57What do you do, Sarah?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59I'm a student at Newcastle University.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01How are you enjoying Newcastle?
0:08:01 > 0:08:03- It's a lovely city. I really like it.- Isn't it? I love Newcastle.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- What year are you in? - Just going into second year.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Just about to go into second year. Reading what?
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- English literature.- Very good.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13So first year has gone well? You've been living in halls first year?
0:08:13 > 0:08:16- Yeah.- And what happens next year? Do you move out?- We've got a house.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Whereabouts is your house? Sorry, just talk amongst yourselves.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20- In Jesmond?- Don't ask what number,
0:08:20 > 0:08:22- otherwise it's getting weird. - No, all right.
0:08:22 > 0:08:23LAUGHTER
0:08:23 > 0:08:26- Yeah.- Sarah, what would you like to go for?
0:08:27 > 0:08:29I've got a risky one or a safe one.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32- I'm not sure.- Don't ask me that, I'm going to say, "Risky" every time.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Yeah.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35What...? Risky, how?
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Risky in that you're not sure if it's a word, or...?
0:08:37 > 0:08:39If it's... It might be two words.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40Oh.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45I'm going to say stalemate.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47"Stalemate," says Sarah.
0:08:47 > 0:08:48Stalemate. Let's see if that's right.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51Let's see how many of our 100 people said, "Stalemate."
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Well, 28 is our high score and you pass that.
0:08:59 > 0:09:0019 for stalemate.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03APPLAUSE
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Not bad at all, Sarah.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07Yeah, "Position counting as a draw."
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Or one of those people you friended on Facebook a long time ago
0:09:10 > 0:09:12- and think, "Why did I do that?" - LAUGHTER
0:09:12 > 0:09:15Thanks very much, Richard. Well, we're halfway through the round.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Let's take a look at those scores.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19Well done, Ian. The lowest score of the round. Very good indeed.
0:09:19 > 0:09:20One over there on podium two.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Then up to 15, where we find Liz and Julie.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Up to 19, where we find Sarah and Anne.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26And then up to 28,
0:09:26 > 0:09:28where we find Bepin and Jit.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30So, Jit, you are a little bit ahead.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32We are going to need a low score from you.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34I think...
0:09:34 > 0:09:35you have the mean of someone
0:09:35 > 0:09:37who's got a good answer up their sleeve there,
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- so let's hope... Find out if that's right.- We'll find out.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42We're going to come back down the line now.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:09:45 > 0:09:48- So, Anne, welcome.- Hello.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Now, normally, I say to people, "What do you do?"
0:09:50 > 0:09:52I think I have a hunch. LAUGHTER
0:09:52 > 0:09:54I have an inkling
0:09:54 > 0:09:55you might be a vicar.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58- I'm a curate...- A curate. - ..so I'm like a trainee vicar.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01A trainee vicar? Oh. So how long have you been traineeing?
0:10:01 > 0:10:02Just over a year.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06So, you're attached to a parish in Kirby Lonsdale, near Kirby Lonsdale?
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Yes. Actually Kirby Lonsdale.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10- I see.- It's also known as the Rainbow Parish.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Ah. Well, how nice.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14And when not being a curate...
0:10:14 > 0:10:17I mean, for heaven's sake, you're a curate all the time, really,
0:10:17 > 0:10:19- there's no two ways about that...- Yeah.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22..but when you have spare time, shall I say, what do you like to do?
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Spare time. I do have to try and earn my own living as well,
0:10:24 > 0:10:26which I do as a self-employed actuary.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29But in my "spare" spare time, I do quite a lot of bell-ringing.
0:10:29 > 0:10:30I see. That's fun.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33I mean, not hand bells, you mean proper church bells?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35- Church bell ringing, yes.- And you do that in Kirby Lonsdale?
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Yes, and the village we live in, which is Whittington.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40What is the longest time...? How many changes have you rung?
0:10:40 > 0:10:41What is the record number?
0:10:41 > 0:10:45The record one that I, particularly, have rung is about 5,200, I think.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47How many hours was that?
0:10:47 > 0:10:48Three hours, 22.
0:10:48 > 0:10:49Wow.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52OK. Now, what would you like to go for?
0:10:52 > 0:10:53We are looking for words ending M-A-T-E.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55I would like to go... It's...
0:10:55 > 0:10:58maybe slightly risky, but I was prompted by an earlier contestant.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01I would like to go with antepenultimate.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05There we are. That's the open goal everybody was stepping around there.
0:11:05 > 0:11:06Antepenultimate.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Well, you're on 19.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10You want to score eight or less.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11I would hope this would go all the way down.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13There is your red line.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16Let's see how many people of our 100 people said antepenultimate.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20INAUDIBLE
0:11:24 > 0:11:25Gets you through.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27And it's Pointless! Very well done indeed.
0:11:27 > 0:11:28APPLAUSE
0:11:28 > 0:11:31Very well done. We haven't had one of those for a long, long time.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34That adds £250 to today's jackpot,
0:11:34 > 0:11:36takes the total up to £1,250.
0:11:36 > 0:11:37It's scores you nothing,
0:11:37 > 0:11:39leaves your total at 19.
0:11:39 > 0:11:40Very well done indeed, Anne.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Bravo, Anne. That's a terrific answer.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Yeah, "The third from last in a particular series."
0:11:45 > 0:11:47I thought you were going to go for that.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49That was the one I was going to go for. You've got it written down.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52- There you go.- There we go. - Told you so. Antepenultimate.
0:11:52 > 0:11:53- Thank you.- Got you again.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56- Yeah, you got me.- The moment you heard, "Penultimate,"
0:11:56 > 0:11:57I could see your brain going.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- Inevitably.- I know when you're thinking.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03- I've seen it once or twice before. - LAUGHTER
0:12:03 > 0:12:04It's quite rare.
0:12:04 > 0:12:05- Right, now, Jit...- Hello.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08..welcome to Pointless. Good to have you here. What do you do, Jit?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11I am also... I don't know if you've ever had this before,
0:12:11 > 0:12:12I'm also an accountant.
0:12:12 > 0:12:13- Triple accountant.- Yeah.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- So, another accountant.- I know.
0:12:15 > 0:12:16- Yes indeed.- Goodness me.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18What do you do in your spare time, Jit?
0:12:18 > 0:12:21So, I like to play golf with Bepin as much as we can.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23I'm big on sports, so I like to play squash
0:12:23 > 0:12:26and I follow cricket religiously as well,
0:12:26 > 0:12:28so I've been out to Australia to see the guys and stuff so...
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Oh, I see. Are you part of the...?
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Would you say you were part of the Barmy Army or would you...?
0:12:32 > 0:12:33I wouldn't go that far
0:12:33 > 0:12:36because I'm not as dedicated as some of those guys are, but...
0:12:36 > 0:12:38- I'm a hanger on.- A hanger on? - Yeah, probably.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41OK. Now, Jit. You're on 28. You're still the high-scorers.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43We need something along the lines of antepenultimate.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47Yeah, I had penultimate, I didn't have antepenultimate, unfortunately.
0:12:47 > 0:12:48And I had climate, as well,
0:12:48 > 0:12:49which Beps has taken.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52I'm just going to have to go with ultimate.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54"Ultimate," says Jit. Let's see if that's right.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58There's no red line for you, I'm afraid,
0:12:58 > 0:12:59as you're the highest scorers,
0:12:59 > 0:13:02but let's see how many people said, "Ultimate."
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Eight. APPLAUSE
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Takes your total up to 36.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19It's going to drive geeks mad, this round,
0:13:19 > 0:13:21because penultimate came in the wrong place,
0:13:21 > 0:13:22antepenultimate came in the wrong place
0:13:22 > 0:13:24and now ultimate's in the wrong place as well.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27- Imagine if we'd finished with those three.- We'll edit it, reorder them.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30We should do that. That would be perfect.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32You know that anyone who hangs around with the Barmy Army...
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- It's the Territorial Barmy Army, it's called.- Really?
0:13:35 > 0:13:36Thanks very much, Richard.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Now then...
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Suzanne, you are on one.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Lovely low score from Ian in that first pass.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Ian, antepenultimate, you see?
0:13:46 > 0:13:48I didn't want to risk, though, it in case it was hyphenated.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Fair enough. It might have been hyphenated.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Now, Suzanne, welcome.
0:13:52 > 0:13:53What do you do, Suzanne?
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Well, I'm retired but I do a lot of cooking and food writing.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58I'm interested in food and farming.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00- Oh, so you do food writing...as well?- Yes.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02So, what particularly do you write about?
0:14:02 > 0:14:06Well, very often about the way our food is produced now
0:14:06 > 0:14:08and foods that are endangered
0:14:08 > 0:14:11because of modern farming and production methods.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Suzanne, what would you like to go for?
0:14:14 > 0:14:15You're on a lovely low score there.
0:14:15 > 0:14:1836 is the high. Jit and Bepin.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20If you can score 34 or less, you're through.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23I've got two in mind but I think I'll go with the safer one.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Inanimate.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27"Inanimate," says Suzanne.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30There is your red line. If you can get below that with inanimate,
0:14:30 > 0:14:31you're through to the next round.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:14:35 > 0:14:36It's right.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Very well done. You are through to Round Two.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Down it goes, to six... APPLAUSE
0:14:45 > 0:14:48..taking your total up to seven, the lowest total of the round.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51Lovely answer, Suzanne. Very well played, yeah.
0:14:51 > 0:14:52"Showing no signs of life."
0:14:52 > 0:14:54There we are. Thank you very much, Richard.
0:14:54 > 0:14:55So, Julie.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57We come to you.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58Here from Brighton, Julie.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01And what do you get up to down in Brighton?
0:15:01 > 0:15:03Well, Liz and I have been friends for a long time.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05We like going to quizzes together,
0:15:05 > 0:15:07we like having lunches together.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Sometimes we even involve our partners.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Occasionally, they're allowed to join you for coffee.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15- Only occasionally.- Yes. That's fine.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18Do you go to different places around Brighton or around Sussex,
0:15:18 > 0:15:22or do you have a regular haunt that you like to go to for lunch?
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Just places around Brighton.
0:15:24 > 0:15:25OK, very good.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Now, Julie, you're on 15.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31You have to score 20 or less to stay with us at the end of this round.
0:15:31 > 0:15:32I've got a couple in mind,
0:15:32 > 0:15:35and I'm very worried about if I choose the wrong one...
0:15:35 > 0:15:38but I'm going to go for intimate.
0:15:38 > 0:15:39Intimate.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41"Intimate," says Julie. Here is your red line.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43If you can get below this red line with intimate,
0:15:43 > 0:15:45you are through to the next round.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47How many people said intimate?
0:15:55 > 0:15:5631 for intimate.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58I'm sorry, Julie.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00That's a high score there, takes your total up to 46.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03APPLAUSE
0:16:03 > 0:16:06Sorry, Julie. Second highest scorer of all, intimate, I'm afraid.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Now, there's quite a few pointless answers,
0:16:09 > 0:16:10so let's take a look at a few of them.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12I've come up with another one.
0:16:12 > 0:16:13- No, no.- If you've got another one.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16I'll go for reanimate, but that might be hyphenated.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Reanimate...would've scored you two points.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21- That's all right.- I'd stick with antepenultimate.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22I'd go with antepenultimate.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Let's take a look at some of these pointless ones.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Some good words here. Some words
0:16:26 > 0:16:28that people will know here for definite.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Bandmate is a pointless answer, someone who you're in a band with.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33Clubmate also is a pointless answer - someone that, you know,
0:16:33 > 0:16:35you're in a club with or a football team. Bedmate.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Glutamate, like monosodium glutamate.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42Labelmate. Again, a band you're on the same label as.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45Littermate. That's an animal you're in the same litter as.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47- That's sweet, isn't it?- That's nice.- I rather like that one.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Microclimate.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51How about that? Stick micro on the front of climate
0:16:51 > 0:16:53and you'd have had a pointless answer.
0:16:53 > 0:16:54Misestimate.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Oh, yes. We've met her.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58She's been on the show, hasn't she? LAUGHTER
0:16:58 > 0:16:59Very good.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02One of the less successful of the Little Miss books - Miss Estimate.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06Squamate, which is a lizard.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08And stablemate, of course, for horses.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10A horse that comes from the same stable.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12And we know the second-highest scorer was intimate.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15Climate, actually, is the third-highest scorer.
0:17:15 > 0:17:16Climate and primate both scored 28.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Let's take a look at all the top three
0:17:18 > 0:17:19and you can see what the top one is.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21I want to see if you can guess the top one.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26What do you think the top one is?
0:17:26 > 0:17:28I was quite surprised with it.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33I'll tell you, the closest we've had was stalemate.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35- Oh, it's checkmate.- Checkmate is the biggest answer of all.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38- How interesting.- Would have scored 45 points.
0:17:38 > 0:17:39- Interesting.- Vaclav.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Do you know Vaclav?
0:17:41 > 0:17:42He's my Czech mate.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44- Oh, right. Yeah.- Yeah. Lovely fella.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46- Lovely fella.- Lovely fella.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Well, we are at the end of our first round,
0:17:49 > 0:17:52and the pair we're saying goodbye to, I'm afraid, is Julie and Liz.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54I'm so sorry. Far too soon to be sending you home.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56Good news, though, we'll see you again next time.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58We look forward to that very much indeed.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01In the meantime, thank you very much indeed, Julie and Liz.
0:18:01 > 0:18:02APPLAUSE
0:18:02 > 0:18:06But, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:18:06 > 0:18:10APPLAUSE
0:18:10 > 0:18:11Well done, everyone.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13We have made it through to Round Two.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Only one more round to go till you can start playing as teams.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18You can confer from next round onwards.
0:18:18 > 0:18:19Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22Our category for Round Two today is...
0:18:24 > 0:18:25World Politics.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:18:27 > 0:18:29who's going to go second?
0:18:29 > 0:18:32And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36OK. And the question concerns...
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Female World Leaders, Richard.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44On each pass, we're going to show you the names
0:18:44 > 0:18:45of six female world leaders,
0:18:45 > 0:18:46also the position they held
0:18:46 > 0:18:48and the year they took that position as well.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50I just need you to tell us the country
0:18:50 > 0:18:52in which they held the position, please.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55There'll be 12 in all to have a go at at home, so very best of luck.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58Thanks very much indeed. So, let's reveal our first board
0:18:58 > 0:19:00of six female world leaders, and here they come.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02We've got...
0:19:15 > 0:19:17I'll read those all one last time.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35So, Ian, we come to you.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39How do you like our board of female world leaders?
0:19:39 > 0:19:40I know five of the six...
0:19:40 > 0:19:43That's pretty good going, Ian.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47..I'm just not sure which is going to be the least score.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49I think I'll say Mary Robinson.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Republic of Ireland.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54"Republic of Ireland," says Ian, for Mary Robinson.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57Let's see how many of our 100 people agree with Ian.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00He's right.
0:20:04 > 0:20:0736 for Republic of Ireland. APPLAUSE
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Yeah, first female President of Ireland, Mary Robinson.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15Became a UN Commissioner for Human Rights after that, as well.
0:20:15 > 0:20:16Thank you, Richard.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18Now, Jit.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21So I think I know only the obvious ones, to be totally honest.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24So, I am going to go for...
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Benazir Bhutto and Pakistan.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29"Benazir Bhutto, Pakistan," says Jit.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30Let's see if that right.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35It's right.
0:20:38 > 0:20:4143. APPLAUSE
0:20:41 > 0:20:4443 for Pakistan.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Yeah, her father was also Prime Minister of Pakistan.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49She studied at Oxford University and Harvard.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51That's showing off, isn't it?
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Choose one or the other.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Anyway. Now, Anne,
0:20:56 > 0:20:58what would you like to go for on this board?
0:20:58 > 0:21:01This whole board is yours. If you want to talk us through it, you can.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03I wish I could. The only one I know
0:21:03 > 0:21:05is the other stunningly obvious one,
0:21:05 > 0:21:07which I'm going to have to go for, I think.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Angela Merkel, Germany.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12"Angela Merkel, Germany," says Anne.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15Let's see if Germany's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19There we are. It's right.
0:21:19 > 0:21:20There... Yes. 80.
0:21:20 > 0:21:21APPLAUSE
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Seemingly as ever on this show,
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Germany a high scorer.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Yeah. First female Chancellor of Germany.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Long-running one, as well, Angela Merkel.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Do you want to take a guess at any of these?
0:21:32 > 0:21:33Do you know Helen Clark?
0:21:33 > 0:21:35She's New Zealand.
0:21:35 > 0:21:36Yes. There we go.
0:21:36 > 0:21:37Would have scored 12 points.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Portia Simpson Miller...
0:21:39 > 0:21:41- is...- Jamaica.- ..Jamaica. - Yes, I do remember that.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Would have scored seven points.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46And Michelle Bachelet at the bottom... It's a very good answer.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Well done if you said Chile.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Would have scored you two points.
0:21:50 > 0:21:51There we are.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Thank you very much indeed.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54Well, we're halfway through the round.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Let's take a look at those scores.
0:21:56 > 0:21:5736, Ian. Well done.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Ian and Suzanne, once again, looking very strong on that first podium.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Then up to 43, Jit and Bepin.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04Then up to 80. I'm sorry, Anne.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06Not much left on the board for you there,
0:22:06 > 0:22:07apart from the really high scorer.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09But, Sarah, who knows what the next board's like?
0:22:09 > 0:22:11If you can find a nice low scorer on there,
0:22:11 > 0:22:14maybe it'll be enough to keep you in the game, so best of luck with that.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16We're going to come back down the line now.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:22:20 > 0:22:21OK. We're going to put six more
0:22:21 > 0:22:25female world leaders up on the board, and here they are.
0:22:25 > 0:22:26We have got...
0:22:42 > 0:22:43I'll read those one last time.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00Sarah,
0:23:00 > 0:23:02you're the high scorer,
0:23:02 > 0:23:03so we need a low score from you.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07Yeah, politics is not my strong point in any way.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11Going to try...
0:23:13 > 0:23:16..India for Indira Gandhi.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Indira Gandhi, India.
0:23:18 > 0:23:19No red line for you, Sarah,
0:23:19 > 0:23:20as you're the high-scorers.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23Let's see how many of our 100 people said India.
0:23:25 > 0:23:26It's right.
0:23:27 > 0:23:2870 for India
0:23:28 > 0:23:31takes your total up to 150.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33- APPLAUSE - That was really bad, sorry.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Yeah. Served for three consecutive terms, Indira Gandhi.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Her father was also Prime Minister of India.
0:23:41 > 0:23:42- The first one.- Indeed.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Now then, Bepin.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48Good news for you, doesn't matter what you score here,
0:23:48 > 0:23:51you will still go through to our head-to-head.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54Well, the only one I absolutely knew was Indira Gandhi,
0:23:54 > 0:23:56so I'm going to take a guess with Kim Campbell
0:23:56 > 0:23:57and go for Australia.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Kim Campbell.
0:23:59 > 0:24:00"Australia," says Bepin.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02No red line. You're already through.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Let's see how many of our 100 people said Australia.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10Not Australia, I'm afraid.
0:24:10 > 0:24:11Scores you 100 points.
0:24:11 > 0:24:12Takes your total up to 143,
0:24:12 > 0:24:14but you're through anyway.
0:24:14 > 0:24:15Yep. Afraid not, Bepin,
0:24:15 > 0:24:17but I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Now, Suzanne.
0:24:19 > 0:24:20How confident are you feeling?
0:24:20 > 0:24:22Do you want to have a wander through that board
0:24:22 > 0:24:24and see how many you can fill in?
0:24:24 > 0:24:25No, I'd rather not.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30I sort of feel that I do almost know some,
0:24:30 > 0:24:33but I'm going to go for the one I feel pretty certain on,
0:24:33 > 0:24:34which is the top one.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Julia Gillard, Australia.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38"Julia Gillard, Australia," says Suzanne.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Again, no red line for you as you're already through
0:24:41 > 0:24:43but let's see how many of our 100 said Australia.
0:24:45 > 0:24:46It's right.
0:24:51 > 0:24:5425. Takes your total to 50... APPLAUSE
0:24:54 > 0:24:5761, I beg your pardon. 61.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Well played, Suzanne. Famously born in Barry in Wales.
0:24:59 > 0:25:00Her parents emigrated
0:25:00 > 0:25:02when she was four years old.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04Edith Cresson...
0:25:04 > 0:25:06- France.- ..is France. Yep.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08Would have scored 12 points.
0:25:08 > 0:25:09Now, Kim Campbell...
0:25:09 > 0:25:10It's not Australia.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Canada.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Eight points for that.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Ellen Johnson Sirleaf is the best answer on the board.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19She won the Nobel Peace Prize,
0:25:19 > 0:25:21- she was the first African elected female head of state.- Yes.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23Extraordinary women in lots of ways.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25She was the President of Liberia.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Two points for that. Very well done if you said that one.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31- And Golda Meir is... - Israel.- ..Israel.
0:25:31 > 0:25:32And she would have scored you 30.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:25:34 > 0:25:35So, at the end of our second round,
0:25:35 > 0:25:38the pair we're sending home with their high score of 150,
0:25:38 > 0:25:41I'm afraid it's Sarah and Anne on the far podium there.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43You scored our only Pointless answer
0:25:43 > 0:25:45for some time in actual gameplay,
0:25:45 > 0:25:47so congratulations for that...
0:25:47 > 0:25:48but we'll see you again next time,
0:25:48 > 0:25:50and I'm sure you'll go much, much further.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53In the meantime, thanks very much for playing. Sarah and Anne.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55APPLAUSE
0:25:55 > 0:25:57But for Bepin and Jit, and Ian and Suzanne,
0:25:57 > 0:25:59it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:59 > 0:26:05APPLAUSE
0:26:05 > 0:26:07Congratulations, Ian and Suzanne, Bepin and Jit,
0:26:07 > 0:26:09you're now one step closer to the final
0:26:09 > 0:26:11and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:26:11 > 0:26:14which currently stands at £1,250.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Well, you know the story.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18From here on in, you can chat before you give your answers,
0:26:18 > 0:26:20and the first pair to win two questions
0:26:20 > 0:26:22will be playing for the jackpot.
0:26:22 > 0:26:23Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:23 > 0:26:28APPLAUSE
0:26:28 > 0:26:30OK. Here comes your first question
0:26:30 > 0:26:32and it concerns...
0:26:34 > 0:26:35Two-word Film Titles, Richard.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37Yeah, we're going to show you some visual clues now.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40Pairs of pictures that will lead you to a two-word film title.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43We've also giving you the year that those films were released,
0:26:43 > 0:26:45so all you have to do is come up with the most obscure one.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49OK. Thank you. So, let's reveal our five visual clues,
0:26:49 > 0:26:50and here they come.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52We've got...
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Well, Ian and Suzanne, you're our low scorers
0:27:19 > 0:27:22so, obviously, you will go first.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25THEY WHISPER
0:27:29 > 0:27:32Well, we know four of them,
0:27:32 > 0:27:35so I think we'll plump for E...
0:27:35 > 0:27:37and Sunset Boulevard.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39"Sunset Boulevard," say Ian and Suzanne.
0:27:39 > 0:27:40Sunset Boulevard.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42Now, Bepin and Jit...
0:27:42 > 0:27:44do you want to talk through the others?
0:27:44 > 0:27:46I think we know three of them.
0:27:46 > 0:27:47B is Top Gun,
0:27:47 > 0:27:49C is Cloud Atlas
0:27:49 > 0:27:51and D, I think, is Fight Club.
0:27:51 > 0:27:52Which of those do you think?
0:27:52 > 0:27:54I think Cloud Atlas might be the best shot out of those. Yeah.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56OK, I think we'll go with Cloud Atlas.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58You're going to go with Cloud Atlas.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00So, we have Sunset Boulevard and we have Cloud Atlas.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Ian and Suzanne have Sunset Boulevard for E.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:28:07 > 0:28:08It's right.
0:28:10 > 0:28:1367 for Sunset Boulevard.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Well, Bepin and Jit, meanwhile,
0:28:15 > 0:28:18have gone for C and they've said Cloud Atlas.
0:28:18 > 0:28:19Let's see if that's right.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22Let's see how many of our 100 people agree with that.
0:28:23 > 0:28:24It's right...
0:28:25 > 0:28:26..and it wins.
0:28:28 > 0:28:29What about that? 37.
0:28:29 > 0:28:31Low score for Cloud Atlas there. APPLAUSE
0:28:31 > 0:28:32Well done, Bepin and Jit.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34After one question, you're up 1-0.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36Yeah. That was actually the highest score on the board
0:28:36 > 0:28:39and the lowest score on the board there, those two answers.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42The one you didn't get for us, gents, was A...
0:28:42 > 0:28:43- Reservoir Dogs.- Reservoir Dogs.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46I think that's exactly what Quentin Tarantino had in mind, I think.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49That's so lovely, isn't it? Aww. Look at the dog on the right.
0:28:49 > 0:28:51- Aww.- So tired.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54- Well, he's been in the reservoir all day.- Yeah.
0:28:54 > 0:28:5638 points for that.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59B, you're absolutely right, Bepin and Jit, was Top Gun.
0:28:59 > 0:29:0158 points for that.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03D, Fight Club.
0:29:03 > 0:29:07Can I just commend the acting from our subjects there?
0:29:07 > 0:29:08Well, they weren't acting.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11That's actually... A photographer just caught that fight happening.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13But a fight in an office as well.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16It's a fight in a boxing equipment office.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18Right.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21- Two guys just furious with each other.- Yeah. There we go.
0:29:21 > 0:29:2363 points for Fight Club.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26There we are. Thank you very much indeed.
0:29:26 > 0:29:27OK, here comes your second question.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30Now, Ian and Suzanne, you have to win this one to stay in the game
0:29:30 > 0:29:32but Bepin and Jit will answer it first. Best of luck.
0:29:32 > 0:29:33It concerns...
0:29:36 > 0:29:38Vincent van Gogh, Richard.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40We're going to show you five clues now to facts
0:29:40 > 0:29:42about the artist Vincent van Gogh.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44Can you give us the most obscure answer, please?
0:29:44 > 0:29:46People argue so much about how you pronounce that name,
0:29:46 > 0:29:49it's become almost like a badge of honour to pronounce it differently.
0:29:49 > 0:29:51Yeah, I know. "Van Goch," "Van Go."
0:29:51 > 0:29:54The Americans like, "Van Goh."
0:29:54 > 0:29:55But, you know, "Van Goff."
0:29:55 > 0:29:57We always called him "Van Goff", haven't we?
0:29:57 > 0:29:59We've called him "Van Goff".
0:29:59 > 0:30:00Thank you very much, Richard.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04OK. Let's reveal our five clues, and here they are. We have got...
0:30:19 > 0:30:22I'll read those one last time.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40Now, Bepin and Jit will go first.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42Not a brilliant category.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44So, I think we know a couple of them.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46Do you know?
0:30:46 > 0:30:48Do you have an idea about the French city?
0:30:48 > 0:30:50- No.- I think we're going to have to go with one of the obvious ones.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53I think we'll go with the European city, which is Amsterdam.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56"Amsterdam," say Bepin and Jit.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58Amsterdam. Now, Ian and Suzanne,
0:30:58 > 0:30:59that board's all yours.
0:30:59 > 0:31:02OK. We'll say... We know several.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04The flowers are sunflowers.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07But I think we're going to go for the century in which he was born,
0:31:07 > 0:31:09the 19th century.
0:31:09 > 0:31:10The 19th century.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13So, we have Amsterdam and we have the 19th century.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15Bepin and Jit went for Amsterdam.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:31:20 > 0:31:21It's right.
0:31:25 > 0:31:2850 for Amsterdam. APPLAUSE
0:31:30 > 0:31:33Now, Ian and Suzanne, playing to stay in the game here,
0:31:33 > 0:31:34have gone for the 19th century.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Let's see if that's right.
0:31:36 > 0:31:38Let's see how many people said the 19th century.
0:31:39 > 0:31:40It's right...
0:31:43 > 0:31:45..and it wins you the point.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46Well done. 36 for the 19th century.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49You're back in the game, Ian and Suzanne. Well done.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51After two questions, it's 1-1.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54Very well played. Let's fill in the rest of these.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56You're right about sunflowers, of course...
0:31:56 > 0:31:58but that's the biggest scorer on the board.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01That would have scored you 66 points.
0:32:01 > 0:32:03Right at the top there. Do you know the actor?
0:32:03 > 0:32:04Yes.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08I can picture...
0:32:08 > 0:32:11- It's Kirk Douglas.- Kirk Douglas is the right answer, yep.
0:32:11 > 0:32:12Would have scored you 16.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15And the French city is the best answer on the board.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17- That is Arles.- Arles.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Very well done if you said that.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21That would have scored you two points.
0:32:21 > 0:32:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24OK, here comes your third question.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26Whoever wins this goes through to the final place for the jackpot,
0:32:26 > 0:32:28so best of luck to both pairs.
0:32:28 > 0:32:31Our third question today is all about...
0:32:32 > 0:32:35Things Found Under The Sea, Richard?
0:32:35 > 0:32:38We're going to show you five things now you might find under the sea
0:32:38 > 0:32:40but we've put them in anagram form, I'm afraid.
0:32:40 > 0:32:42Whichever team gives us the lowest answer
0:32:42 > 0:32:44is going through to play for the jackpot.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46OK, let's reveal our five anagrams and here they are...
0:32:48 > 0:32:49We've got...
0:32:54 > 0:32:55HE REPEATS ANAGRAMS
0:32:59 > 0:33:03Now, Ian and Suzanne, you're to go first this time again.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09- Yeah...- (Seaweed...
0:33:09 > 0:33:12- (That must be plankton. That's too easy.- Yeah...
0:33:13 > 0:33:16- (Let go with that.- OK.)
0:33:16 > 0:33:20OK, I think we will go for
0:33:20 > 0:33:23"Scoot up" as octopus.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25Scoot up, octopus.
0:33:25 > 0:33:29Now, Bepin and Jit, how many of those can you talk us through?
0:33:29 > 0:33:31Well, we know seaweed is "awe seed".
0:33:31 > 0:33:32Do you know any of the others?
0:33:32 > 0:33:34No, not really.
0:33:34 > 0:33:36I think we might need to go for the top one, you think?
0:33:36 > 0:33:39- Dolphin?- Dolphin is the last one, actually.
0:33:39 > 0:33:40Well, we'll just go with that.
0:33:40 > 0:33:43- Let's go with dolphin. - You're going to go for dolphin.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45So, we have octopus and we have dolphin.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47Now, Ian and Suzanne went for octopus for "scoot up".
0:33:47 > 0:33:48Let's see if that's right.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51Let's see how many have 100 people spotted octopus.
0:33:52 > 0:33:53It's right.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00Not bad. 22.
0:34:00 > 0:34:0322 for octopus. APPLAUSE
0:34:04 > 0:34:07Bepin and Jit have, meanwhile, gone for dolphin.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09For "hold pin". Let's see if dolphin's right.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11Let's see how many people spotted it.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14It's right.
0:34:17 > 0:34:2037 for dolphin... APPLAUSE
0:34:20 > 0:34:22..which means, Ian and Suzanne, very well done.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25After three questions, you're through to the final, 2-1.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27Yeah, very, very well played.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29Let's fill in the rest of this board.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31- "Plank not..."- Plankton.
0:34:31 > 0:34:32It's plankton, yep.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34Only score you 71, though.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36"Awe seed" is seaweed, you knew that.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39It's actually an even bigger scorer, it would've scored you 81.
0:34:39 > 0:34:41And "car lo" is...
0:34:41 > 0:34:43coral, of course.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46That would have scored you 41.
0:34:46 > 0:34:47It's like a Japanese buffet, isn't it?
0:34:47 > 0:34:49Isn't it? HE CHUCKLES
0:34:49 > 0:34:50Thanks very much indeed.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:34:52 > 0:34:54I'm afraid, is Bepin and Jit.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56Nothing wrong with any of your answers in the round.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58Just...Ian and Suzanne pipped you there
0:34:58 > 0:34:59on questions two and three.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01We'll see you again next time, though.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03And we look forward to that very much.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05In the meantime, thanks very much, Bepin and Jit.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08APPLAUSE
0:35:08 > 0:35:12But for Ian and Suzanne, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15APPLAUSE
0:35:15 > 0:35:17Very well done, Ian and Suzanne.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19You've seen off all the competition
0:35:19 > 0:35:22and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:35:30 > 0:35:35And at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,250.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37What would you like to see come up in this round?
0:35:37 > 0:35:41Well, I said I'd quite like songs by the Wurzels.
0:35:41 > 0:35:43LAUGHTER
0:35:43 > 0:35:45A good Somerset man, you see. There we are.
0:35:45 > 0:35:46Songs by the Wurzels.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48I can only think of two, but... No, three!
0:35:48 > 0:35:51I can think of three songs by the Wurzels.
0:35:51 > 0:35:52Champion Dung Spreader?
0:35:52 > 0:35:54You really do know your Wurzels.
0:35:54 > 0:35:57Fantastic. Suzanne, anything you'd particularly like to see come up?
0:35:57 > 0:35:59Well, obviously I'd like it to be food related.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01- Of course.- Food writers, classic cookery books...
0:36:01 > 0:36:04- Something like that would be good. - That would be good.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07Well, let's hope there's something up there you like the look of.
0:36:07 > 0:36:08Today's choices read like this...
0:36:17 > 0:36:20I don't see think I see anything that we'd get a pointless in.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22Like the Nationals, could be anything.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25Could be like Grand National, could be all sorts of national things.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28If it's the Grand National, I don't know anything. Do you?
0:36:28 > 0:36:30We know horses. You know, looking back. I don't mind.
0:36:30 > 0:36:32- Which do you prefer?- No, you.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34You've got the responsibility!
0:36:34 > 0:36:36All right, I'm going to say...
0:36:36 > 0:36:37We'll go for the Nationals.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40"The Nationals," say Ian and Suzanne.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42OK, very best of luck. Here are your three questions.
0:36:42 > 0:36:44We are looking for anyone credited
0:36:44 > 0:36:47with acting in the 2004 film National Treasure,
0:36:47 > 0:36:48according to IMDB.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51We are looking for are the names of any of the 39 horses
0:36:51 > 0:36:54that started the 2015 Grand National...
0:36:54 > 0:36:58or we are looking for any National Lottery game show.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00That's any game show that's been wrapped around
0:37:00 > 0:37:02the Saturday night National Lottery draw, please.
0:37:02 > 0:37:05And that's up to April, 2015.
0:37:05 > 0:37:06So, the cast of National Treasure.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08Grand National horses from 2015.
0:37:08 > 0:37:12Or Saturday night's National Lottery game shows, please.
0:37:12 > 0:37:13Very best of luck.
0:37:13 > 0:37:14Thank you very much indeed.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17Now, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with the answers
0:37:17 > 0:37:19and all you need to win the jackpot
0:37:19 > 0:37:21is for just one of your answers to be pointless.
0:37:21 > 0:37:23- Are you ready?- Yes.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:25 > 0:37:27There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29- Don't know any of the film's... - No, I don't.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32Can you think of any of the horses? Cos I don't for this year.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34No, not this year. No.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36Right, National Lottery game show hosts. Dale Winton...
0:37:36 > 0:37:39No, not show hosts. It's National Lottery game shows.
0:37:39 > 0:37:40Game shows, yeah.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42So, like, In It To Win It,...
0:37:42 > 0:37:45The one from EastEnders...
0:37:45 > 0:37:47- Is that...? No, it's not connected with that, is it?- No.
0:37:52 > 0:37:53Dale Winton...
0:37:53 > 0:37:56Yeah, but that's... That's In It To Win It, isn't it?
0:37:56 > 0:37:59- Oh, I don't know.- There's the one...
0:37:59 > 0:38:00I think that is connected with it.
0:38:00 > 0:38:03But say it. Go on. Think of some more.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06I can't think of anything else.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08That shows we don't even do the lottery.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10MURMURING
0:38:13 > 0:38:15A bit stuck here, I'm afraid.
0:38:15 > 0:38:18Who else has done game shows? Just think of people in game shows.
0:38:18 > 0:38:20Over the years, from...
0:38:20 > 0:38:22I just can't remember when he said.
0:38:22 > 0:38:24People that have done game shows.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26That's only one that I can think of.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29Right, what's the name of the guy from EastEnders?
0:38:29 > 0:38:31OK, now, that, I'm afraid, is your time up.
0:38:31 > 0:38:32I now need your three answers.
0:38:32 > 0:38:35Sounds like you might have to make up some racehorse names.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37I think we might have to make up some racehorse names.
0:38:37 > 0:38:38Well, that's fun, isn't it?
0:38:38 > 0:38:41What answers would you like to give me?
0:38:41 > 0:38:43Well, we know In It To Win It.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45So, In It To Win It is one.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47For the National Lottery game show, yep.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49National horses...
0:38:49 > 0:38:50Goldstar.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Goldstar.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55Pick someone from the National Treasure cast. I don't know...
0:38:55 > 0:38:57- Let's say, Leonardo DiCaprio. - Leonardo DiCaprio.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00Now, of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:00 > 0:39:02- The only one we think might be right.- In It To Win It.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05In It To Win It goes last. Least likely to be pointless?
0:39:05 > 0:39:07- Goldstar.- Goldstar.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09OK, well, let's put those up on the board in that order
0:39:09 > 0:39:12and here they are. We've got...
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Well, very best of luck.
0:39:18 > 0:39:20What if you won that jackpot? £1,250.
0:39:20 > 0:39:22Nice jackpot to be taking home.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24What would you do with it?
0:39:24 > 0:39:26- Ian?- Well, we thought what we'd like to do with it.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28It's our silver wedding anniversary next year,
0:39:28 > 0:39:31so we thought we'd spend it on having a good party.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33Brilliant. Well, congratulations for that.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36Now, your first answer was Goldstar.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38In this case, we were looking for any horses
0:39:38 > 0:39:40that started the 2015 Grand National.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42- This is the one that... - Well, you made up.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45But you thought it was probably the least likely to be pointless,
0:39:45 > 0:39:47so let's find out how many of our 100 people said Goldstar.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50For £1,250, is it right? Or pointless?
0:39:53 > 0:39:54No!
0:39:54 > 0:39:57You never know! That was one that just might have swum in
0:39:57 > 0:39:59and maybe somewhere, at the back of your mind,
0:39:59 > 0:40:01it might have been a correct answer, but I'm afraid it wasn't.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04Which means you only have two more shots today's jackpot.
0:40:04 > 0:40:05Your next answer was Leonardo DiCaprio.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08In this case, we were looking for any cast members
0:40:08 > 0:40:09of the film National Treasure.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11Let's find out. Leonardo DiCaprio.
0:40:11 > 0:40:14Is it right, is it pointless for £1,250?
0:40:16 > 0:40:19No! I'm afraid not.
0:40:19 > 0:40:21Just think, if it had have being a right answer.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24It wouldn't have been pointless, would it?
0:40:24 > 0:40:25OK, well, let's find out.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27You have one more shot at today's jackpot.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29You've gone for In It To Win It.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31Let's see how many of our 100 people said this.
0:40:31 > 0:40:34In this case, we were looking for National Lottery game shows.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37If it's pointless, it'll win you £1,250.
0:40:37 > 0:40:38How many people said it?
0:40:40 > 0:40:41It's right.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44Goldstar, your first answer,
0:40:44 > 0:40:45was incorrect.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Leonardo DiCaprio, your second answer, was incorrect.
0:40:48 > 0:40:49But In It To Win It...
0:40:49 > 0:40:51I'm afraid, stops at 33, I'm sorry.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54APPLAUSE
0:40:56 > 0:40:58You know what's going to happen, though, now
0:40:58 > 0:41:00is we're going to go through those 2015 Grand National horses
0:41:00 > 0:41:03and I bet we're going to end up knowing loads of those, but just...
0:41:03 > 0:41:05very hard to summon up in that minute.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer,
0:41:08 > 0:41:11though, so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £1,250.
0:41:11 > 0:41:13That will roll over onto the next show,
0:41:13 > 0:41:16but congratulations on your silver wedding next year.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18You at least have two pointless trophies to take home
0:41:18 > 0:41:20to add to the celebrations.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22- APPLAUSE - Thank you very much.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28Let's take a look at those pointless answers, shall we?
0:41:28 > 0:41:31We'll start with the cast of National Treasure.
0:41:37 > 0:41:38Everybody apart from Nicolas Cage,
0:41:38 > 0:41:41Sean Bean, Diane Kruger and Jon Voight.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43Everyone else in that film was a pointless answer.
0:41:43 > 0:41:44Well done if you said one.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46Those 2015 Grand Nationals.
0:41:46 > 0:41:48Essentially, if you bet on one of these,
0:41:48 > 0:41:51you'll remember the name, cos almost all of them were pointless.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Alvarado, who finished fourth.
0:41:53 > 0:41:54Dolatulo, who finished last.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56Saint Are, who finished second.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58So, lots of people would have bet on that.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00Lots of people would have got that as a pointless answer.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02And Soll. Loads of other pointless answers there.
0:42:02 > 0:42:05First Lieutenant, Lord Windermere, Rebel Rebellion, Spring Heeled,
0:42:05 > 0:42:07The Druid's Nephew, The Rainbow Hunter.
0:42:07 > 0:42:09Lots and lots of pointless answers there.
0:42:09 > 0:42:12Well done if you got any of those. National Lottery game shows.
0:42:12 > 0:42:1415 pointless answers. I produced two of them. Well done, me.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16You could have had...
0:42:16 > 0:42:17This is one of mine. ..1 Vs 100.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20Presented by Dermot O'Leary and then, later, Ben Shepherd.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Break The Safe, which was Nick Knowles.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25Jamie Theakston's The People's Quiz was a pointless answer.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27Now, this last one, this is Shane Ritchie from EastEnders.
0:42:27 > 0:42:30He did Win Your Wish List, which is a pointless answer.
0:42:30 > 0:42:33Lots of others. Big Ticket, Guesstimation, Millionaire Manor,
0:42:33 > 0:42:35On The Spot, Red Alert, Secret Fortune, We've Got Your Number,
0:42:35 > 0:42:37Winning Lines, Right Around The World.
0:42:37 > 0:42:39All of those, pointless answers.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Very well done if you said any of those at home.
0:42:41 > 0:42:42Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you, Ian and Suzanne,
0:42:45 > 0:42:47but it's been fabulous having you on the show.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49Thank you so much for playing. Ian and Suzanne!
0:42:49 > 0:42:52APPLAUSE
0:42:52 > 0:42:54Well, sadly, they didn't win our jackpot today,
0:42:54 > 0:42:56which means it rolls over onto the next show,
0:42:56 > 0:42:59when we will be playing for £2,250.
0:42:59 > 0:43:00APPLAUSE
0:43:00 > 0:43:02Join us then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
