0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome
0:00:24 > 0:00:27to Pointless - the show where the more obscure your knowledge,
0:00:27 > 0:00:28the better your chances of winning.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35And couple number one.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38I'm Drew. This is Tim and we're friends from Swindon.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40- Couple number two.- Hi, I'm Rich.
0:00:40 > 0:00:44- This is my wife, Angela, and we're from Burbage in Leicestershire. - Couple number three.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Hi, I'm Steve. This is my sister, Jane. I'm from Derby and she's from Leicester.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Couple number four.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Dave. This is my son, Henry.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54I'm from Dufftown in the Highlands and Henry's a citizen of the world.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56And these are today's contestants.
0:00:58 > 0:01:03Thanks you very much. We'll find out more about each of you as the show goes along.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08He absolutely loves it when you shout obscure facts at him from the
0:01:08 > 0:01:12window of your moving car. It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14Hiya. Hi, everybody.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Goodness me.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21I've only just recovered from that incredible jackpot round in the last show.
0:01:21 > 0:01:22Richard and Esme.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26And Richard got... He's obviously an Olympics geek, par excellence.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Unbelievable. He had Olympic Throwing Events and he took us through
0:01:29 > 0:01:31virtually every woman who's ever won an Olympic javelin gold.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34It was very impressive. He gave us the 1948 champion,
0:01:34 > 0:01:37the 1956 champion and the 1964 champion.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40All perfect. Mentioned three other pointless answers during his 60 seconds
0:01:40 > 0:01:42as well. It was genuinely incredible, wasn't it?
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Gave us their nationalities. Virtually gave us the distance they threw.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48- It was...- You didn't ask that, I bet he would have done.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50I should have done, shouldn't I? I should have done.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52He could have made it up though, I didn't know.
0:01:52 > 0:01:53True. I would have believed him.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56I would go as far as to say, the greatest single performance we've ever had
0:01:56 > 0:01:58in a Pointless jackpot round.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00- Absolutely.- Yeah. Very, very, very impressive.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02They took away nearly £5,000, so very best of luck to them.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Two returning pairs from that show.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Angela and Rich, who got knocked out in the first round last time,
0:02:07 > 0:02:09I would say, unfortunately.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13Angela just had a slight misunderstanding of a question in the first round.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15That's OK. That happens.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Dave and Henry got knocked out in the second round.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19I would say less unfortunate.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22Henry, very unfortunate to get knocked out but, you know,
0:02:22 > 0:02:25you bring your dad along, that's what's going to happen sometimes.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27So, Dave has some making up to do to his son today.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30He certainly has. Thank you very much, Richard.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33So, yes, Richard and Esme won the jackpot last time, so today's jackpot
0:02:33 > 0:02:36starts off back at £1,000.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39There it is. Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46All you have to remember is this.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49The pair with the highest score at the end of each round will be
0:02:49 > 0:02:51eliminated. That's the rule.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56Our first category today is...
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Heavy intake of breath there.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:03:03 > 0:03:05who's going to go second?
0:03:05 > 0:03:08Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13OK. Let's find out what the question is.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:03:16 > 0:03:20As many UN founding member states as they could.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21UN founding member states.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24- Richard.- Yeah, we're looking for any of the countries that were founding
0:03:24 > 0:03:25member states of the UN, please.
0:03:25 > 0:03:29So, any of the signatories to the charter of the UN in 1945,
0:03:29 > 0:03:31in either June or October 1945.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34There were 51 signatories, so any country that were signatories
0:03:34 > 0:03:38to that charter and still exist today.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40- Very best of luck.- Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Tim, welcome to Pointless.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Great to have you here. What do you do, Tim?
0:03:44 > 0:03:48I work at a school for children with behavioural issues, in Swindon.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49I managed the exclusion unit there.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Right, you are. That's...
0:03:51 > 0:03:54Yeah, sometimes a rather challenging job, I should think.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57It is quite difficult but rewarding as well.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Rewarding, I bet, yes. What do you do in your time off.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03I dare say you need just to unwind quite substantially after that.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06A lot of TV. A lot box sets with my fiancee.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Settling down with that, time with my girls as well.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Very nice. Tim, what are you thinking of?
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Always tough going on first.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16I'd like to go with the Netherlands.
0:04:16 > 0:04:17The Netherlands, says Tim.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Let's see how many of our 100 people said, the Netherlands.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Good answer. Look at that.
0:04:30 > 0:04:337, Tim.
0:04:33 > 0:04:357 for the Netherlands.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37That's a really good start, Tim.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Very well played. Yeah, you've got to try and gain control of the game
0:04:39 > 0:04:41from that first podium, haven't you?
0:04:41 > 0:04:43And that's a very, very nice way of doing that.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47Very good. Thanks, Richard. Now, Rich, welcome back.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Welcome back. Yes, Round One last time.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52- Yes.- I'm sorry. William Shatner did it.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Rich, remind us what you do.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57I run a trophy and engraving business.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58Which you just took over from someone else,
0:04:58 > 0:05:00simply through your love of darts.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03- Yep.- Are you the captain of your team?
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Well, I'm secretary of the league, captain of two teams.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09Now, I... I'm inferring from this that you did very well.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12That you're a champion team, then.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13No. Not really.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17You went down to the trophy shop just to get yourself some trophies,
0:05:17 > 0:05:20to make yourselves feel better. What's wrong with that?
0:05:20 > 0:05:22I'm about to see if they sell Pointless ones.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24Yeah, well... That's a good point, actually.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26You do occasionally see them on eBay.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Why would you buy one? You've got to earn one.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32I know, because they trade now for around about £17,500, so they are...
0:05:32 > 0:05:34LAUGHTER
0:05:34 > 0:05:36To pay that money.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38- For that.- And some people might say, you know,
0:05:38 > 0:05:40I don't remember you being on...
0:05:40 > 0:05:42I'm sorry, I don't remember you winning...
0:05:42 > 0:05:45All you really have to do is spend 15 years learning the names of
0:05:45 > 0:05:48female Olympic javelin throwers. That's the way to get one.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52I just heard they've gone up to £29,000.
0:05:52 > 0:05:5534,000 is the latest bid.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Oh, it's in the room. It is in the room at 36,000.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01Now, Rich, what would you like to go for?
0:06:01 > 0:06:04I think I'll go for Canada.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Canada, says Rich.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09Let's see how many of our 100 people said, Canada.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12It's right.
0:06:18 > 0:06:2321. 21 for Canada.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27Well done, Rich. You can always rely on the Canadians, can't you? To try and calm things down...
0:06:27 > 0:06:31- Yeah.- ..after a fight. - Yeah.- Which, essentially, is what the UN was.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- Of course.- Yeah.- Of course.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Yes, now, Steve, welcome to Pointless.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Great to have you here. What do you do, Steve?
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Not a lot at the moment.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45I'm unemployed due to health, but I'm trying to get back on the go,
0:06:45 > 0:06:47as it were, and I'm, at the minute,
0:06:47 > 0:06:53developing an organisation to support people with functional neurological disorders.
0:06:53 > 0:06:54Right, you are.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- FND. - FND?- Yeah.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59And what do you do in your spare time?
0:06:59 > 0:07:00What do you like to get up to?
0:07:00 > 0:07:04Oh. Photography. I'm into photography. I like watching films.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06Family. So, yeah.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Meeting up with friends, socialising.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Very good indeed. Now,
0:07:11 > 0:07:15how comfortable are you feeling about United Nations founder members?
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Well, yeah, I'm OK, hopefully.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21I'm sure they're more comfortable about me than I am about them,
0:07:21 > 0:07:24- so...- What would you like to go for?
0:07:24 > 0:07:25I'm going to say, Sweden.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Sweden, says Steve.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Let's see how many of our 100 people said, Sweden.
0:07:35 > 0:07:36Oh, Steve.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39I told you there are more comfortable about me than I was about them.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43I'm afraid Sweden is an incorrect answer and scores you 100 points.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47- Oh, Richard.- Yeah, they did not sign up on that original date, I'm afraid.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50They are the country of the world whose name is most like your own,
0:07:50 > 0:07:52though, so it's quite a good one to go for.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56- Yeah.- Don't you think? It's one of the few countries in the world that that rhymes with Steven.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59What was it that Sweden didn't particularly like about it?
0:07:59 > 0:08:02They just had such huge beef with the Canadians.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04- Yeah, well...- They hated them.
0:08:04 > 0:08:05It was over an old ice hockey...
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Someone said something in an ice hockey match and the Swedes didn't like it.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11They wanted the Eurovision Song contest to be their thing instead of
0:08:11 > 0:08:13the United Nations. That was the thing with Sweden.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16They said, "No, we'll just do the Eurovision Song Contest", and the United Nations
0:08:16 > 0:08:19said, "This is going to be better, it's about peace."
0:08:19 > 0:08:21And they were, "Well, this is about songs..."
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Lovely. You know, they got their way in the end but not in 1945.
0:08:24 > 0:08:25- There we are.- Sweden there.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Sweden. There we go. Now, Dave.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30- Hi.- Welcome back.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33So, we discovered last time that you are a gardener...
0:08:33 > 0:08:35- Yes.- ..at a distillery...
0:08:35 > 0:08:37- Indeed.- ..in Scotland.
0:08:37 > 0:08:38- Indeed.- How long have you been doing that?
0:08:38 > 0:08:41- I've been doing that for six years. - And how much have you changed of the
0:08:41 > 0:08:44garden? You do quite a lot of the design of the garden?
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Yeah, I tend to see things from start to finish.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49So, that's the basis on which I was taken on.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51And where were you before you were at the distillery?
0:08:51 > 0:08:54I was the head gardener at Brodie Castle, which is an NTS property.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Right, you are. And that's in Scotland as well, isn't it?
0:08:57 > 0:09:00That's in Moray, which is not very far away in distance but a
0:09:00 > 0:09:02- world away climatically.- Oh, I see.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Well, so, wetter in Moray?
0:09:05 > 0:09:09Much colder. Much colder in Dufftown, where I am now, and
0:09:09 > 0:09:12although it snows in Brodie, it would be gone the next day,
0:09:12 > 0:09:15much like in the south of England - but in Dufftown, it snows,
0:09:15 > 0:09:17- it says.- Right.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Now, Dave.- Yes.- What are you going to go for?
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Well, this fella, here,
0:09:23 > 0:09:26saved me a bit because I was going to say, Sweden.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29So, I'm going to go slightly south and go with Belgium.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Belgium, says Dave.
0:09:31 > 0:09:32Let's see if Belgium's right.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Let's see how many of our 100 people said, Belgium.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Is right.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43Well, 7 was what we got for the Netherlands.
0:09:43 > 0:09:4421 for Canada. 16 for Belgium.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53Yeah, Belgium, a very good answer.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Again, I think they slightly made up for the last show.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57- We'll see.- Yeah.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Now it would be nice if Henry messed up now because then...
0:10:00 > 0:10:02- It would be a good balance. - Yeah, even Stevens.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- Wouldn't it?- Yeah. Well, we're halfway through the round.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Let's take a look at these scores. 7, Tim, the best score of the pass so far.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Well done, Tim and Drew. Looking pretty good at this point.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Then up to 16, Dave and Henry. 21, Rich and Angela.
0:10:14 > 0:10:19Then, I'm sorry, Jane and Steve, Sweden letting you down there.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Jane, who knows what'll happen on the next pass?
0:10:21 > 0:10:25There might be another 100. Let's not have it from you. Let's have a nice low score from you...
0:10:25 > 0:10:27- I'll do my best.- ..and maybe it will keep you in the game.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30We're going to come back down the line now. Can the second players please
0:10:30 > 0:10:31step up to the podium?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Now then, Henry.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Welcome back.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40Welcome back. Now, you've been doing a music degree in Aberdeen.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Yes.- Now, going over to Edinburgh to do a bachelors degree,
0:10:43 > 0:10:44but in popular music.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- Yes.- So, popular music starts roundabout when?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Pretty much the birth of blues.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51I see. I see.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53So, you don't go back to the popular tunes of the...
0:10:53 > 0:10:55- No. No, no, no.- ..1920s?
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Right, OK. Very good.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59And do you have interests outside music?
0:11:00 > 0:11:06I do but, you know, most of my time takes up recording, writing music...
0:11:06 > 0:11:09Very exciting. Now, Henry, you are on 16.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12Our high-scorers at the moment are Jane and Steve on 100.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16If you can score 83 or less, you're through to Round Two.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20I don't now. I'm just going to be really painfully obvious,
0:11:20 > 0:11:23cos I don't want to slip up, so I'm going to go with Germany.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Germany, says Henry.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Here is your red line. If you can get below this red line with Germany,
0:11:28 > 0:11:29you are through to Round Two.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Let's see how many people said, Germany.
0:11:34 > 0:11:35Oh, Henry.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39That wasn't what you were expecting, I'm afraid.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41- No.- Scores you 100 points.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44- We're even.- We're even.- Take your total up to 116.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45There we go.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47- Good lad.- And it's nice as well, Dave,
0:11:47 > 0:11:51cos you can gave Henry a little chat about what happened in 1945 as well.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52LAUGHTER
0:11:52 > 0:11:55- Yeah.- Thanks very much, Richard.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Now then, Jane.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59You have been handed a bit of a lifeline there.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01- I have.- This could be great news.
0:12:01 > 0:12:02Jane, welcome to the show.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05- Great to have you here. What do you do?- Thank you.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08I'm a health care assistant and GP receptionist in a surgery.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10And what are your interests, Jane?
0:12:10 > 0:12:15Just started playing golf about a year ago, started taking some lessons.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18And socialising, I've got a large group of friends,
0:12:18 > 0:12:19so we go out a lot,
0:12:19 > 0:12:23go on holidays together, coffee mornings, shopping...
0:12:23 > 0:12:24Particularly shopping.
0:12:24 > 0:12:29Very nice. Now, Jane, the challenge here is scoring 15 or less.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33Well, Politics is not my favourite subject, I have to say.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37But I will have a go at...
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- Switzerland.- Switzerland, says Jane.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Switzerland. Here is your red line.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43If you can get below the red line with Switzerland, Jane,
0:12:43 > 0:12:46you are through to Round Two. How many people said, Switzerland?
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Oh, I'm sorry, Jane.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55I'm afraid... That scores you 100 points.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Takes your total up to 200, I'm sorry.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00I'll tell you, that can only be a brother and sister, it really can.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Yeah, Switzerland didn't join until 2002.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04Switzerland. They're famously quite reticent at...
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Joining stuff.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08- ..joining in, aren't they? - Yeah. Yeah.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10There we are. Thank you, Richard.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Now, Angela, welcome back.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Listen, this is great news.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17It doesn't matter what you say, it just doesn't matter.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20You could even give the answer, William Shatner...
0:13:20 > 0:13:22LAUGHTER
0:13:22 > 0:13:25..and you would still be through to Round Two.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Angela, remind us what you like getting up to.
0:13:28 > 0:13:33I'm big into darts, obviously, with Richard playing quite a lot.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36We both bowl as well, so that takes up most of our time.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Is this indoor or outdoor bowling?
0:13:38 > 0:13:39- Outdoor.- Outdoor bowling.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Which is a nice summer sport.
0:13:41 > 0:13:42Yeah, when you get a nice summer.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45So, even when you're not playing in the team,
0:13:45 > 0:13:46do you come along for support?
0:13:46 > 0:13:50Yeah. Yeah, I'm always there supporting and, when it's super league darts,
0:13:50 > 0:13:53you have to keep all the scores and the averages...
0:13:53 > 0:13:56You've got to keep the pints coming as well, that's the thing.
0:13:56 > 0:13:57So, I do all of that. Yeah, yeah.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Very good. OK, now, Angela.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02As I said, it doesn't matter what you score, you're still through.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05There will be no red line for you. What would you like to say?
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Well, I've got a few in mind but...
0:14:08 > 0:14:11I think this is fairly obvious but I could be wrong.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13I think I'll say, Italy.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Italy, says Angela.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Let's see if Angela's right to say,
0:14:17 > 0:14:20Italy, and let's see how many people agree with her if it is right.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25- No.- Oh, my goodness.- Italy,
0:14:25 > 0:14:28for similar reasons to Germany not being there, I should think.
0:14:28 > 0:14:32- Yeah.- That scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 121.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Yeah, they only had to wait to 1955,
0:14:34 > 0:14:36because it was slightly less awkward.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38LAUGHTER
0:14:38 > 0:14:40- Yeah.- Fair enough.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Now, Drew, welcome to Pointless.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44Good to have you here.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46I know. It has been that kind of a round.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48Tim helped you out enormously.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- Massively, yeah.- Enormously.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54Actually, therefore, since the far podium over their gave their second
0:14:54 > 0:14:56answer, you've been home and dry, which is good news.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00- Drew, what you do?- I also work with Tim in the behavioural school as well.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02You work alongside Tim?
0:15:02 > 0:15:04- Yeah, he's my boss, to be fair. - Whose idea was to come on the show?
0:15:04 > 0:15:06- It was my idea.- It was yours?
0:15:06 > 0:15:10- Yeah.- And then, obviously...- I sort of dragged him along by his ears, really.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12And what are your interests, Drew?
0:15:12 > 0:15:14I perform as will.i.am in a tribute band.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17What's that involve? Do you move like will.i.am?
0:15:17 > 0:15:20- I try to, to be fair.- Do you sing, do you rap, like...?
0:15:20 > 0:15:23I rap and sing, yeah, with three other guys doing it as well.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25- It's great fun.- Listen,
0:15:25 > 0:15:27if you get through to the final and win the jackpot,
0:15:27 > 0:15:30will you do a will.i.am tribute for us?
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Definitely do a solo performance of will.i.am for you.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36- Yes, I will.- Fantastic.- I will turn my chair around while you do it.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38LAUGHTER
0:15:38 > 0:15:40- During the performance?- Yeah.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43Drew, what would you like to go for?
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Doesn't matter what you score, you're through to Round Two anyway.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49To be fair, when the subject came up, I was absolutely struggling,
0:15:49 > 0:15:51didn't know what I was going to say but I'm going to go for Greece.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53"Greece," says Drew.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59No red line for you, you're already through.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02It's right.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Podium one looking like our low scorers for this round.
0:16:05 > 0:16:0716.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Taking your total up to 23.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Very well done indeed.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Very well played, Drew. It's very tough to get lower answers, actually.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18I mean, some of the bigger answers you could get -
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Australia, 22. China, 21. 12 for New Zealand.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Weirdly, Steve, Norway and Denmark would have scored you 11 points.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26They're there, but not Sweden, I'm afraid.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29It's very unfortunate but I'll take you through some of the low scorers.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32You really need to know your stuff if you get a low scorer.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35One point for Bolivia, Belarus, Costa Rica, Saudi Arabia,
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Iran, Lebanon, Panama, Ecuador, Uruguay and Syria.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Now, let's take a look at the pointless answers.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44You could have had Colombia, El Salvador, Ethiopia,
0:16:44 > 0:16:49Haiti, Honduras, Liberia.
0:16:49 > 0:16:50So, you really do know your staff.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53You need to know about the geopolitics of the post-war if you want to get
0:16:53 > 0:16:56a pointless answer. Paraguay, Philippines and the Ukraine.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Let's take a look at the top three,
0:16:58 > 0:17:00the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05United States of America would have scored you 54.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07France, 59.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09There we go. The United Kingdom at the top on 65.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- That's nice.- There we are.
0:17:11 > 0:17:12Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16So, at the end of our first round, the pair we' say goodbye to with a high score of 200,
0:17:16 > 0:17:19I'm so sorry, Jane and Steve, it is you. That was quite a tough round, though.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22I mean, you know. It could be quite easy to fall foul of that one.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24But we will see you again next time.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26I'm sure it'll be much, much better. Meantime,
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- thanks very much for playing, Jane and Steve.- Thank you.
0:17:31 > 0:17:35But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42Well done, everyone. We've made it through to Round Two.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44- Angela, Rich, lovely to have you with us here.- Thank you.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Particularly well done on a near podium, though.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Tim, lovely low score there from you.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55Our category for Round Two this afternoon is pop music.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58Pop music. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:17:58 > 0:18:00who's going to go second and whoever's going first,
0:18:00 > 0:18:02please step up to the podium.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07OK, and the question concerns
0:18:07 > 0:18:10songs with jobs in the title.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Songs with jobs in the title.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14- Richard.- We're going to show you, on each board,
0:18:14 > 0:18:17six UK top 40 hit singles with a job or occupation in its title.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20But we've missed out that job or occupation. Can you tell us what it is, please?
0:18:20 > 0:18:23There's going to be 12 in all to have a go at, at home.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25- Very best of luck.- Thank you very much.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29Let's reveal our first board of songs with missing job titles and here they are.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44I'll read those all one last time.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58Tim.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01Not great, but I know a few, so...
0:19:02 > 0:19:06I'll play it safe and go with Glen Campbell for Rhinestone Cowboy.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08"Cowboy," says Tim.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11Cowboy. Let's see how many of our 100 people said, "Cowboy."
0:19:14 > 0:19:15Is right.
0:19:17 > 0:19:1870.
0:19:20 > 0:19:21popular answer there, Tim.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24Yeah, a number 4 hit in 1975.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27It's one of my favourite songs. I love Rhinestone Cowboy.
0:19:27 > 0:19:28You don't think of a Cowboy as being a job.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30- No, you don't.- It is, of course, in America.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32- It is.- We don't really have cowboys over here.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36No. Thank you very much. Now, Rich.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40Torn between a couple of ones that are fairly obvious and one that I'm not 100% sure about.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44So, I'm going to go with...
0:19:44 > 0:19:46Paperback Writer.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47"Paperback Writer," says Rich.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Writer. Let's see how many of our 100 people said, "Writer."
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Well, 70 was...
0:19:55 > 0:19:58The cowboy. 78 is the writer.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03It turns out this is easier than the UN question.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- Yeah.- A number one single from 1966, Paperback Writer.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10There we are. Now, Henry, this board's all yours.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12Talk us through it and fill in the blanks.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15I mean, I'm kicking myself for going first because my dad would have got
0:20:15 > 0:20:18the Four Tops one because he's a huge Northern Soul fan.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21So...
0:20:24 > 0:20:26I mean, Blame It On The...
0:20:26 > 0:20:29I've no idea. I only know one B*witched song.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32I'm going to have to go with Baker Street, Gerry Rafferty.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34OK, you're going to go with Baker.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37- Yes.- Let's see how many of our 100 people said, "Baker."
0:20:40 > 0:20:41So far, we've got 78 and 70.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43You pass both of those.
0:20:43 > 0:20:44Down to 63.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46There we are. Baker Street
0:20:46 > 0:20:48did you a favour there, Henry.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51- 63.- Yeah, I'm surprised it got so low.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Very famous song. I think maybe because you don't think of it as...
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Because it's not actually a job title in the context of a song that it may
0:20:57 > 0:21:01be slightly lower. I cannot believe that a student of popular music only knows one B*witched song!
0:21:01 > 0:21:04- Exactly!- What are we paying our taxes for?
0:21:04 > 0:21:08That's extraordinary. The B*witched song is blamed on the...
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Postman.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12- Weatherman.- Yes. It's the weatherman.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Ah, the weatherman. Of course.
0:21:14 > 0:21:1621 points for that.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18- Ah, that postman!- Blame it on the postman.
0:21:18 > 0:21:22Sly and Robbie featuring Simply Red. Night Nurse.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25- Oh, yeah.- Would have scored you 10 points.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27And the Four Tops is actually quite a big scorer.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30- If I Were A Carpenter. - If I Were A Carpenter.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Would have scored you 43 points.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34So, Night Nurse is the best answer is on that board.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37Thanks very much indeed. Well, we're halfway through the round.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38Let's take a look at those scores.
0:21:38 > 0:21:4263 is the best score of the pass. Well done, Henry and Dave.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Not... I mean, you're not that far ahead because then, at 70,
0:21:44 > 0:21:46we've got Tim and Drew.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49And then, at 78, we've got Rich and Angela.
0:21:49 > 0:21:50So, fairly evenly spaced.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Angela, we need a low score from you on the next board though,
0:21:53 > 0:21:56so I hope there's something you like there. Back down the line now.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:22:00 > 0:22:03OK, let's put six more song titles up on the board and here they are.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19I'll read those one last time.
0:22:28 > 0:22:29Dave, hello.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32- Hello.- You're on 63.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Ideally, you score 14 or less.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37- OK.- Ideally.
0:22:37 > 0:22:44Well, I'm going to blow my credibility completely out of the water
0:22:44 > 0:22:47- and go for Doctor Jones, Aqua. - Doctor Jones. OK.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51Well, here comes your red line. If you can get below this red line with Doctor Jones,
0:22:51 > 0:22:56your definitely into the head-to-head. How many of our 100 people said, "Doctor Jones?"
0:23:01 > 0:23:03- Look at that. - Ooh!- 23.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06I think that's good enough. Taking your total up to 86.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10That's a terrific answer, Dave, yeah.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Although, you're now banned from Henry' graduation.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15- Yeah, absolutely.- That was their follow up to Barbie Girl.
0:23:15 > 0:23:20- It was actually rather a good song. - I don't remember Doctor Jones.- Do you not remember Doctor Jones?
0:23:20 > 0:23:23It's good. Doctor Jones, Doctor Jones, Calling Doctor Jones.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Good song. Well, I say, "Good..."
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- It's no B*witched. - It's no...
0:23:28 > 0:23:30Now, Angela.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Angela, now, listen. Here, we have a target.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34We need 7 or less from you.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36I think I should be OK then.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39I know a few of them.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41I think I'm going to go for the oldest one on there.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43My Old Man's A Dustman.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46My Old Man's A Dustman. There is your red line.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49Let's see how far down the column we get with Dustman.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57- Oh. - Oh, 72.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Angela, I'm afraid that is a...
0:23:59 > 0:24:03- Oh, my goodness!- That is a high score, taking your total up to 150.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04It is, yeah. Number one from 1960.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08Sometimes called the founding father of British pop music, Lonnie Donegan.
0:24:08 > 0:24:0917 top 10 hits.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Spent over 100 weeks in the top ten in the UK charts.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14That was one of three number ones.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16There you are. Brilliant. Thanks, Richard.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Now, Drew.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20Drew, we need a score of 79 or less from you.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Yeah, not a great board for me.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27- Do you fancy talking through it? - I'll try!
0:24:27 > 0:24:30If I had to go Tina Turner, Private Dancer, maybe?
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Please Mr Postman, the Carpenters.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38Rock DJ and I don't know the Stereophonics one.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40I'm going to go over and Robbie Williams, Rock DJ.
0:24:40 > 0:24:41"Rock DJ," says Drew.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44Here's your red line. Get below the line with Rock DJ and you're into our
0:24:44 > 0:24:47head-to-head. Let's see how many of our 100 people said, "Rock DJ."
0:24:51 > 0:24:53It's right. And you're through.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Very well done.
0:24:55 > 0:24:5645.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00Well done. 115 is your total.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04Drew, you can't say, "It's not a good board for me," then go through every
0:25:04 > 0:25:07single correct answer apart from the hardest one.
0:25:07 > 0:25:08That's not fair on the others.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10You're right about Private Dancer.
0:25:12 > 0:25:13That would have been 65 points.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17- It's Please Mr Weatherman, of course. - LAUGHTER
0:25:17 > 0:25:19Please Mr Postman, The Carpenters.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22That would've scored you 61. And the best answer of all at the bottom.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25- The bartender...- The Bartender And The Thief by Stereophonics.
0:25:25 > 0:25:2810 points for that and very well done if you said that.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Thanks. So, at the end of our second round, I'm so sorry.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33It's Angela and Rich, one of our returning pairs.
0:25:33 > 0:25:37We have to say goodbye to you. Well, you've done twice as well as you did
0:25:37 > 0:25:39last time, which is good. I'm sorry we're saying goodbye so soon.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42- Thanks so much for playing. Angela and Rich.- Thank you.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48But for Dave and Henry, Tim and Drew, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Congratulations, Tim and Drew, Dave and Henry.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58You're now one step closer to the final and a chance to play for that
0:25:58 > 0:26:01jackpot, which currently still stands at £1,000.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Well, this is the point where you become teams.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05You can chat before you give your answers.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07The first player to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09Tim and Drew, there you are,
0:26:09 > 0:26:13entirely on the merits of two great low-scoring rounds.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Our golden pair.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17Dave and Henry, what about this?
0:26:17 > 0:26:19- What about it?- Into the head-to-head.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22And actually, we had moments of genius from you, actually.
0:26:22 > 0:26:23So, nice low scores.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26I think, yes, with your heads together, this should be very,
0:26:26 > 0:26:28very evenly matched. So, best of luck to both pairs.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:30 > 0:26:35APPLAUSE
0:26:36 > 0:26:41Here comes your first question and it concerns Pulp Fiction Actors.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45- Pulp Fiction Actors. Richard.- We're going to show you five pictures now of actors who appeared
0:26:45 > 0:26:48in Pulp Fiction. Can you tell us who they are, please?
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Thanks very much. Let's reveal our five actors.
0:26:50 > 0:26:51Here they are.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17There we are. Five actors who appeared in Pulp Fiction.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20Tim and Drew, you're our low scorers, so you will go first.
0:27:21 > 0:27:26- (Ain't that John Malkovich?)- (No.) - (It's not?)- (E is Uma Thurman.)
0:27:26 > 0:27:29(Yeah, that's got to be higher. That's the only two I know, A and E.)
0:27:33 > 0:27:35Struggling a little bit.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38- We'll go with E, Uma Thurman. - Uma Thurman, say Tim and Drew.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42Now, Dave and Henry, talk us through as much of that board as you can.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44OK, A is Sam L Jackson. B is Ving Rhames.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47C is Amanda Plummer. D is Steve Buscemi and,
0:27:47 > 0:27:50obviously, E is Uma Thurman.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52If you're certain, go for C.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Yeah, go with Amanda Plummer for number C.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59- Amanda Plummer for "number" C. OK. Very nice.- Are you sure?!
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Uma Thurman and Amanda Plummer.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Tim and Drew said, "Uma Thurman" for E.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08Let's see how many of our 100 people said, "Uma Thurman."
0:28:12 > 0:28:1538 for Uma Thurman.
0:28:17 > 0:28:21Dave and Henry, meanwhile, have said, "Amanda Plummer," for C.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Let's see how many of our 100 people said, "Amanda Plummer."
0:28:26 > 0:28:28- It is Amanda Plummer. - (Well done, son.)
0:28:31 > 0:28:34And yes, that wins you the point.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37Down it goes. Good answer. 6 for Amanda Plummer!
0:28:37 > 0:28:39- Well done. - Good going, Dave and Henry.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42- After one question, you are up 1-0. - Yeah, you knew them all.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45That's the best one as well. Best answer on the board.
0:28:45 > 0:28:48She'd also be a good answer for songs with jobs in their title as well.
0:28:48 > 0:28:51- There you are.- Amanda Plummer.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53A is Samuel L Jackson. He would have scored you...
0:28:54 > 0:28:5747.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59Ving Rhames, the second one.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01Plays Marsellus Wallace in Pulp Fiction.
0:29:01 > 0:29:02He would have scored you 10.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06And Steve Buscemi
0:29:06 > 0:29:08would have scored you 20.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13So, here comes question number two.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16Tim and Drew, you have to win this one to stay in the game, so best of luck.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19It concerns...
0:29:19 > 0:29:22Whales. Whales, Richard.
0:29:22 > 0:29:23Five clues now to facts about whales.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26Which of these is the most obscure?
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Thanks very much. Let's reveal our five clues and here they are.
0:29:29 > 0:29:30We've got...
0:29:49 > 0:29:52I'll read those all one last time.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56Males of this species grow tightly-spiralled tusks from their mouths.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59The name given to the stiff keratinous plates in the mouths of right and
0:29:59 > 0:30:04humpback whales. Species of small, toothed whale found in the Arctic,
0:30:04 > 0:30:06also known as the white whale.
0:30:06 > 0:30:08The largest living species of whale.
0:30:08 > 0:30:13And the BAFTA-nominated 2013 documentary film about the killer whale Tilikum.
0:30:13 > 0:30:17There we go. Dave and Henry, you'll go first.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21- Do you think?- Yeah. What, more than the plates?
0:30:21 > 0:30:22- Are you sure?- Very.
0:30:24 > 0:30:26I don't agree but...
0:30:26 > 0:30:28You've got the force, man. You've got the force.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32OK. I'm going to go for...
0:30:32 > 0:30:37Males of this species grow tightly spiralled tasks from their mouths is a narwhal.
0:30:37 > 0:30:38"A Narwhal," say Dave and Henry.
0:30:38 > 0:30:43A narwhal. Tim and Drew, the board is yours.
0:30:43 > 0:30:48It's a pretty good board, I think. BAFTA-nominated film was Blackfish.
0:30:49 > 0:30:50Largest whale, the blue whale.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52Species of small, toothed is the minke.
0:30:53 > 0:30:58And... I'm not sure about the one above.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02I'm going to go with minke for the species of small, toothed whale found in the Arctic.
0:31:02 > 0:31:03The minke whale.
0:31:03 > 0:31:05So, we have narwhal and we have minke.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08Dave and Henry went for narwhal.
0:31:08 > 0:31:10Let's see if that's right for the first one.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13Let's see how many of our 100 people said, "Narwhal."
0:31:14 > 0:31:17It's right.
0:31:20 > 0:31:2527. 27 for Narwhal.
0:31:26 > 0:31:29Meanwhile, Tim and Drew have gone for the minke whale.
0:31:29 > 0:31:32Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said,
0:31:32 > 0:31:34"Minke."
0:31:38 > 0:31:41Ooh. I thought that was going to go a long way down.
0:31:41 > 0:31:43Minke is incorrect, which means - very well done indeed - Dave and Henry,
0:31:43 > 0:31:46after only two questions, you're through to the final.
0:31:46 > 0:31:482-0. DAVE GUFFAWS
0:31:48 > 0:31:52Yeah, not the minke, I'm afraid. It's the beluga whale.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54Beluga whale is the answer to that one.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Would have scored you 7 points as well - a teriffic answer.
0:31:56 > 0:32:01- And you'd have won the point if you'd gone for the documentary - it is Blackfish.- Blackfish, yeah.
0:32:01 > 0:32:03- Oh, no.- And that would have scored to 11 points.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05A really genuinely extraordinary documentary as well, isn't it?
0:32:05 > 0:32:07Amazing. Yeah, absolutely incredible.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10If you ever want to be put off going to Seaworld or believing it exists,
0:32:10 > 0:32:12it is quite something to watch.
0:32:12 > 0:32:1611 points there. The largest living species is the blue whale.
0:32:16 > 0:32:17That's the biggest scorer as well.
0:32:17 > 0:32:2359. The keratinous plates are baleen.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25Very well done if you said that.
0:32:25 > 0:32:27Baleen. Five points. Best answer on the board.
0:32:27 > 0:32:29There we are. Thanks very much indeed.
0:32:29 > 0:32:32So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round, I'm afraid,
0:32:32 > 0:32:36Tim and Drew, this time it is you but you will be back next time
0:32:36 > 0:32:39and I'm absolutely certain you'll make it this far and beyond.
0:32:39 > 0:32:42We look forward to that very much indeed. In the meantime, thanks so much. Tim and Drew.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44Well done.
0:32:45 > 0:32:49But for Dave and Henry, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55Well, congratulations, Dave and Henry,
0:32:55 > 0:33:00you've fought off all the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:33:06 > 0:33:08You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:33:08 > 0:33:11At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,000.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13There it is. So, well, first question.
0:33:13 > 0:33:16Having won the Pointless trophy,
0:33:16 > 0:33:20eBay? Or will you be keeping it?
0:33:20 > 0:33:26- £39,000.- Well, we can always buy a digital printer for £1,000 and then
0:33:26 > 0:33:28just print off loads of copies of it.
0:33:28 > 0:33:32A 3-D printer, you mean. That's a horrific idea!
0:33:32 > 0:33:35What's the index on the value currently?
0:33:35 > 0:33:37Well, due to the preponderance, now, of 3-D printers,
0:33:37 > 0:33:41it has gone down to £17.80 unfortunately.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43People have worked out they can make it themselves at home.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Amazing things, 3-D printers.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47Give it six months, we'll be able to print you.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49Oh, wouldn't that be good? There we are.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51Very much. So, Dave, Henry.
0:33:51 > 0:33:55Anything you feel equipped to deal with on this board behind me?
0:33:55 > 0:33:59- Whales.- Yeah, OK. - More whales questions.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02- Birds.- Yeah, anything to do with wildlife would be good.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05Anything to do with pop music or cinema would be good for Henry.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07Horticulture, I'm guessing, would be quite a strong...
0:34:07 > 0:34:09- Lambretta scooters.- OK.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12Well, listen, let's see what the choices are...
0:34:12 > 0:34:14- OK.- ..for today.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Right.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28OK then. Right.
0:34:28 > 0:34:32Well, NONE of those leap out at me at all.
0:34:32 > 0:34:36Definitely not Horse Racing, definitely not Romantic Fiction...
0:34:36 > 0:34:37- BOTH:- Definitely not Opera.
0:34:37 > 0:34:42- No.- So, it looks like it's going to the people and things that turned 60 in 2015. Would you agree?
0:34:42 > 0:34:45- Yeah.- Yeah, OK.
0:34:45 > 0:34:49OK. Usually the subsets of these things are a little bit less...
0:34:49 > 0:34:52- Exactly.- There's got to be something on there, surely.
0:34:52 > 0:34:56- Hopefully.- Richard.- Let's take a look. Three different things here.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59We are looking for any feature film made for cinema release for which
0:34:59 > 0:35:04Bruce Willis has received an acting credit up to the end of March 2015, please.
0:35:04 > 0:35:10We are looking for any UK top 75 single by Billy Idol up to the end of March 2015, as well.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Or we are looking for any country that has ever appeared in the
0:35:13 > 0:35:17Eurovision Song contest, please, up to the 2015 contest.
0:35:17 > 0:35:21So, Bruce Willis films, Billy Idol singles and Eurovision countries -
0:35:21 > 0:35:25all turned 60 in 2015. Very, very best of luck.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27Thanks very much indeed.
0:35:27 > 0:35:30Well, as always, you've got up to one minutes to come up with three answers.
0:35:30 > 0:35:34All you need to win that jackpot of £1,000 is for just one of your answers to be pointless.
0:35:34 > 0:35:37- Are you ready?- Yes.- Yes.- Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:35:37 > 0:35:39There they are. Your time starts now.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42Right, OK. Bruce Willis films, Eurovision countries.
0:35:42 > 0:35:44No. I don't think any of us will...
0:35:44 > 0:35:47Billy Idol... Eyes Without A Face.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49White Wedding, which is obviously dead obvious.
0:35:49 > 0:35:53- Twelve Monkeys.- For Bruce Willis? Yeah. Twelve Monkeys. Pulp fiction.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57- That's obvious though. - What's that one with the asteroid?
0:35:57 > 0:35:59- What's the one with...- Armageddon.
0:35:59 > 0:36:03What's the one where he saved...? There's that Slovakian, Slovenian...
0:36:03 > 0:36:07No, Serbian... Mila Jovovic. Where...
0:36:07 > 0:36:10- Oh, the Fifth Element.- Fifth Element.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12Erm...
0:36:14 > 0:36:18- War films. What war films? Was Bruce Willis in Thin Red Line?- No.
0:36:18 > 0:36:22OK. Erm...
0:36:24 > 0:36:27Eurovision countries...
0:36:29 > 0:36:32- 10 seconds left.- Are we including this year's Eurovision with this?
0:36:32 > 0:36:33- Up to 2015.- Right, OK.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38Right.
0:36:39 > 0:36:41OK, that is your time up.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44That is your minute. Let's have your three answers if you say which
0:36:44 > 0:36:46category you are answering in. OK.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49Bruce Willis films. Armageddon.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51What about Eyes Without A Face for Billy Idol?
0:36:51 > 0:36:54- That kind of obscure, isn't it? - I don't know.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57- What have you got else?- Twelve Monkeys for Bruce Willis films.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00- Twelve Monkeys.- I'd go with Eyes Without A Face.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03- OK. Eyes Without A Face. - Eyes Without A Face by Billy Idol.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05- Yep. Billy Idol.- So, we've got three answers.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07Which of those is our best shot, do you think?
0:37:07 > 0:37:09What should we put last?
0:37:09 > 0:37:12- Twelve monkeys, probably. I don't know.- Twelve Monkeys goes last.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15- Least likely to be pointless? - Go with Eyes Without A Face first?
0:37:15 > 0:37:18- Yeah. I don't know.- Eyes Without A Face, we'll put first.
0:37:18 > 0:37:21OK, well, let's put those up on the board in that order then.
0:37:21 > 0:37:24And here we are. We got Eyes Without A Face, Armageddon, Twelve Monkeys.
0:37:24 > 0:37:25Well, best of luck.
0:37:25 > 0:37:29If you were to win the jackpot today, what would you do with that?
0:37:29 > 0:37:33Well, my wife is reaching a certain age
0:37:33 > 0:37:38next year and she wants to go on a whale-watching holiday, ironically.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41And I would kind of put it to that, I think.
0:37:41 > 0:37:43OK. What kind of whales does she want to watch?
0:37:43 > 0:37:46- She wants to watch...- The narwhal? Beluga-types?
0:37:46 > 0:37:49The narwhal would be great but I think probably,
0:37:49 > 0:37:51as we're going to Iceland, the narwhal's probably not going to happen.
0:37:51 > 0:37:54But, you know, that would probably...
0:37:54 > 0:37:55I think Iceland is the venue.
0:37:55 > 0:37:58- So...- OK. Henry, how about you?
0:37:58 > 0:38:00I don't know. Probably...
0:38:00 > 0:38:05- Pay me back.- Yeah, probably pay my parents back for my student debt.
0:38:05 > 0:38:07So, yeah.
0:38:07 > 0:38:10- And put it towards Mum's birthday... - Right back into his pocket, so...
0:38:10 > 0:38:14- Which goes right out again, of course.- Yes, of course!- Back to him.
0:38:14 > 0:38:18Well, very, very best of luck. Three good answers. Your first answer is Eyes Without A Face.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21In this case, we were looking for UK top 40 hits by Billy Idol.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24If this is pointless, it'll win you £1,000.
0:38:24 > 0:38:27How many of our 100 people said, "Eyes Without A Face?"
0:38:29 > 0:38:33It's right. Now, if this goes all the way down to zero,
0:38:33 > 0:38:35you leave with £1,000.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38Billy Idol's Eyes Without A Face now taking us down through the teens and
0:38:38 > 0:38:40into single figures. Still going down.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42- Oh!- 4.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50That's an impressive low score.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53Only four of our 100 people remembered Eyes Without A Face.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55Sadly, it's not a pointless answer.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57Only two more shots today's jackpot.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59Your next answer was Armageddon.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02In this case, we were looking for a feature film starring Bruce Willis.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04Again, this has to be pointless for you to win the jackpot.
0:39:04 > 0:39:08So, for £1,000, let's see how many people said, "Armageddon."
0:39:11 > 0:39:12It's right.
0:39:12 > 0:39:16Well, Eyes Without A Face took us all the way down to 4.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19Armageddon now taking us down through the 20s.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21Into the teens. Into single figures.
0:39:21 > 0:39:23Down... 6.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31That's still a very impressive score, six.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34You'd be delighted with that in normal...
0:39:34 > 0:39:36- Yeah.- Sadly, it's not pointless, though.
0:39:36 > 0:39:37No, it's not.
0:39:37 > 0:39:41Everything now is riding on Twelve Monkeys, your third and final answer.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44The one you thought was probably your best shot at a pointless answer.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47- Yep.- OK. In this case, again, we're looking for Bruce Willis films.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50It has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53So, for £1,000, let's see how many people said, "Twelve Monkeys."
0:39:57 > 0:39:58It's right.
0:39:58 > 0:40:02Your first answer, Eyes Without A Face, took us all the way down to 4.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05Your second answer, Armageddon, took us down to 6.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08Twelve Monkeys now takes us into single figures, we pass 6, we pass 4...
0:40:08 > 0:40:14- Oh!- We gave it a good shot, man. We gave it a good shot.
0:40:14 > 0:40:19Well, three excellent answers there.
0:40:19 > 0:40:21Three lovely low scores.
0:40:21 > 0:40:22I'm afraid, though,
0:40:22 > 0:40:25you just didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer there.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27So, it looks like she's going to WALES!
0:40:27 > 0:40:31I'm afraid... Oh, that kind of whale watching, OK.
0:40:31 > 0:40:34I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £1,000.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36That rolls over on to the next show. But we've love having you on the show.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39Really entertaining all the way through.
0:40:39 > 0:40:43- You get to take home a pointless trophy each, so there we are.- Yeah. - Very well done.- Yeah.
0:40:43 > 0:40:48- Well done, son.- Absolutely superb. - Yeah, unlucky, gents.
0:40:48 > 0:40:51Great performance today. Now, during your 60 seconds,
0:40:51 > 0:40:54you also came up with another film, which was The Fifth Element.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56- Was that pointless?- Which you chose not to say.
0:40:56 > 0:41:00And if you'd said Fifth Element, it would have scored you one point.
0:41:00 > 0:41:03- So, thank goodness you didn't... - What did Red get?
0:41:03 > 0:41:07- What did Red get? - Yes.- That sounds like a good name for a song, by the way.
0:41:07 > 0:41:09- You should...- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
0:41:09 > 0:41:12Red would have scored... It certainly would've scored points.
0:41:12 > 0:41:14Red would have scored you two points.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17- OK.- There's loads of pointless answers out there for Bruce Willis.
0:41:17 > 0:41:21Let's take a look at a few of them. Well done if you set any of these.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23Billy Bathgate was a pointless answer.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Look Who's Talking was a pointless answer.
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Look Who's Talking 2 was also a pointless answer.
0:41:27 > 0:41:28Lucky Number Slevin.
0:41:28 > 0:41:32Then the Wes Anderson film from 2012 that he's in, Moonrise Kingdom.
0:41:32 > 0:41:34It's a great film. That was a pointless answer.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37Lots of others as well. 16 Blocks was a pointless answer, Colour Of Night,
0:41:37 > 0:41:42Hart's War. You could have had Nobody's Fault, Striking Distance, The Siege,
0:41:42 > 0:41:44The Whole Ten Yards, which is the follow up to The Whole Nine Yards,
0:41:44 > 0:41:47which scored one point. Unbreakable, also a pointless answer.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49So, lots of pointless answers out there.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Pulp Fiction would have scored you three.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Billy Idol. Our old friend Billy Idol.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55Let's see what was a pointless answer here.
0:41:55 > 0:42:00Cradle Of Love, Shock To The System, Speed.
0:42:00 > 0:42:01He had a top 20 hit with Sweet 16.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04You also could have had Catch My Fall.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06You could have had Don't Need A Gun, Flesh For Fantasy,
0:42:06 > 0:42:09LA Woman would have been a pointless answer. Prodigal Blues and To Be A Lover.
0:42:09 > 0:42:12Now, Eurovision. I know lots of people really,
0:42:12 > 0:42:13really love Eurovision questions.
0:42:13 > 0:42:16Some people will have been just shouting out three of these all the way
0:42:16 > 0:42:19through the 60 seconds. Let's take a look at some of the pointless
0:42:19 > 0:42:22answers. A couple of these you could have just guessed actually.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25Bulgaria would have been a pointless answer for reasons best known to our 100. Georgia.
0:42:25 > 0:42:29Morocco were also in the Eurovision once, in 1980.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32And Romania, who've been in 17 times without winning.
0:42:32 > 0:42:35Also could have had Serbia and Montenegro, and West Germany.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38West Germany also would have been a pointless answer.
0:42:38 > 0:42:40Now, weirdly, France was the top scorer.
0:42:40 > 0:42:44- Wow.- Not really a traditional Eurovision nation but they scored 51 points amongst our 100.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47Very well done if you got pointless answers on any of those categories.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49Very well done if you got one on all three.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51That's an impressive breadth of knowledge.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54Thanks very much. Well, unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you, Dave and Henry.
0:42:54 > 0:43:00It's been great having you on the show. Thank you so much for playing. Dave and Henry.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03Well, sadly, Dave and Henry didn't win our jackpot today,
0:43:03 > 0:43:07which means it rolls over onto the next show when we will be playing for £2,000.
0:43:07 > 0:43:09Join us then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:09 > 0:43:10Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.
0:43:10 > 0:43:13- Goodbye.- And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
