0:00:40 > 0:00:43and when we last came on the show,
0:00:43 > 0:00:47we got three pointless answers in the final round.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54And couple number two.

0:01:00 > 0:01:01- AUDIENCE:- Ooh!
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Couple number three.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Hello, I'm Trev out of Trev and Simon.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10And I'm Simon out of Trev and Simon.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12And together, we were lucky enough to win £2,500 for our
0:01:12 > 0:01:15chosen charities on Pointless Celebrities.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:01:19 > 0:01:21And couple number four.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25Hello, I'm David, this is my good old friend Christo,
0:01:25 > 0:01:29and we were the winners of the first-ever Pointless jackpot
0:01:29 > 0:01:30in 2009.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31- AUDIENCE:- Ooh!
0:01:34 > 0:01:38So those are our very special contestants - only one person left
0:01:38 > 0:01:41to introduce. For 1,000 shows now,
0:01:41 > 0:01:44very much the Chas to my Dave...
0:01:44 > 0:01:45LAUGHTER
0:01:45 > 0:01:48..and, in a very real sense, the Michael Jackson to my Bubbles,
0:01:48 > 0:01:51it is my Pointless friend - it's Xander.
0:01:51 > 0:01:52CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:01:52 > 0:01:53Hiya.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- Well! Good afternoon.- Good afternoon to you. How are you?
0:01:59 > 0:02:01- I'm very well.- Excellent.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03- How's this?- 1,000 shows, right? - I know.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06I think we should have done something different, do you not?
0:02:06 > 0:02:09- Shake it up a bit?- Shake it up a bit, or something.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11I think it's a shame just to do a regular... But the BBC, in their
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- wisdom, they know what they're doing.- It's the show people like,
0:02:14 > 0:02:15isn't it? What are we going to do with it?
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- What are we going to do?- Exactly. What sort of a show have we got
0:02:18 > 0:02:19- today?- We've got a very exciting show.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21I mean, this is just fabulous, isn't it?
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Some favourite contestants from yesteryear.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Oh. It's absolutely fabulous.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31But it's going to be a wonderful show. First round, very much
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- old-school Pointless.- Lovely. - Plenty to look forward to.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35Isn't it funny - when we started this,
0:02:35 > 0:02:37I think my daughter was just about to start big school,
0:02:37 > 0:02:39and now she's about to start university.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42How many kids did you have when we started this?
0:02:42 > 0:02:43- Just seven. - LAUGHTER
0:02:45 > 0:02:47- Yeah.- But you've had a lot since we started.- Oh, amazing.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50- I know. Oh, absolutely extraordinary.- Shall we?
0:02:50 > 0:02:51Shall we? I think we shall.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54OK, everybody, let's play Pointless.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Now, because this is a special 1,000th edition,
0:03:02 > 0:03:04we have a special charity jackpot this evening,
0:03:04 > 0:03:06which stands at...
0:03:11 > 0:03:16Also, every single pointless answer on today's show is worth £1,000.
0:03:16 > 0:03:17- AUDIENCE:- Ooh!
0:03:17 > 0:03:18APPLAUSE
0:03:19 > 0:03:22Absolutely no pressure, everybody(!)
0:03:22 > 0:03:24The category for Round One is...
0:03:29 > 0:03:32That sounds exciting, doesn't it? UN Member States.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34LAUGHTER
0:03:34 > 0:03:37Would you discuss among yourselves who wants to go first, who wants to go second?
0:03:37 > 0:03:40And would the player who wants to go first please step up to the podium?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47OK, let's take a look. You all right there, Trevor and Simon?
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Yeah, we're just having a little dance.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52You know, there's six members of the public who did that perfectly,
0:03:52 > 0:03:54and the two people who work in show business are just...
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- That's what we're here for. - Excellent.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01OK, we gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:04:10 > 0:04:11- Xander?- Oh, yes! Yes.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12LAUGHTER
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Basically, we're looking for any country
0:04:16 > 0:04:18whose usual short-form name, in English,
0:04:18 > 0:04:21begins with any of the letters...
0:04:23 > 0:04:24- Can I check one thing?- Yes.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28- I know what- I- mean by country - can I ask what YOU mean by country?
0:04:28 > 0:04:30I'm going to hold you right there, Rich.
0:04:30 > 0:04:31JAUNTY MUSIC PLAYS
0:04:31 > 0:04:33# And by country
0:04:33 > 0:04:36# I mean a sovereign state
0:04:36 > 0:04:40# Which is a member of the UN in its own right. #
0:04:40 > 0:04:41CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:04:41 > 0:04:42Yeah.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48So I've had to do 999 shows
0:04:48 > 0:04:50without that jingle.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55So, Patrick and Sarah. Patrick, welcome back.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57- Thank you.- So, three pointless answers.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- Yes.- How did that feel?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02It felt a little bit surreal.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04I was so mortified that it was
0:05:04 > 0:05:06on such an embarrassing topic.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09You don't sound like you were mortified.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11But no, well, the money made it a bit better.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13- How much did you win? - Two grand between us.
0:05:13 > 0:05:14- That's all right, isn't it?- It's OK.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18Now, this is going to be a very difficult show to win, I suspect.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20- Yes.- Everyone here is a jackpot winner.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23But countries beginning with one of those letters -
0:05:23 > 0:05:24what are you thinking?
0:05:24 > 0:05:26I'm thinking Timor-Leste.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31- Timor-Leste?- Yeah. - Oh, it's going to be a good...
0:05:31 > 0:05:33What are you doing?
0:05:33 > 0:05:34- Sorry, what were you saying? - LAUGHTER
0:05:34 > 0:05:36With me, I focus.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38OK, I'm on it.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Timor-Leste, you're saying. Timor-Leste.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43OK, let's see if it is up there and,
0:05:43 > 0:05:46if it is up there, let's see how many it scored. Timor-Leste.
0:05:50 > 0:05:51It is up there.
0:05:52 > 0:05:57I have a hunch this may go a long way, Patrick.
0:05:57 > 0:05:58CHEERING
0:05:58 > 0:06:01Wow! What about that? How about that?
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Oh, beautiful. Beautiful.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07It is a pointless answer.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09That, of course, adds £1,000
0:06:09 > 0:06:12to our jackpot, which now stands at £3,500.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18- Timor-Leste, Xander? - Timor-Leste, absolutely.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Yes, the first new nation of the 21st century. Southeast Asia.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25Well done, Patrick, that puts your score at zero.
0:06:25 > 0:06:30- Very nice. John, welcome to the 1,000th Pointless.- Thank you.
0:06:30 > 0:06:31Remind us again how much you won.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35So we won £24,750.
0:06:35 > 0:06:36APPLAUSE
0:06:39 > 0:06:43Patrick, that is fully £22,750 more than you won.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46Will you remind us what you won that on?
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Yeah, I had to name... Well, WE had to name a hit
0:06:49 > 0:06:52from the top 40 in the UK by either
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Julio or Enrique Iglesias.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58- Oh, Spanish Pop.- Spanish Pop was waiting for such a long time on
0:06:58 > 0:07:02- our finals board, and you fell into our trap.- Oh, completely.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04And by falling into our trap,
0:07:04 > 0:07:07you managed to win nearly 25 grand. Not a bad trap, is it?
0:07:07 > 0:07:09- Now, John...- Yep.- ..we're looking for any country that begins
0:07:09 > 0:07:11with one of these letters, please.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13I'm going to go with Oman.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Oman? Let's see if it's up there,
0:07:15 > 0:07:18and let's see how many it scored if it is.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22It is up there, of course.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25We've already seen a pointless answer from Patrick,
0:07:25 > 0:07:27where is this going?
0:07:27 > 0:07:28APPLAUSE
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Xander, Oman?
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Oman. Wonderful, wonderful answer there, John.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Yes, centre of the world frankincense trade,
0:07:38 > 0:07:40as I'm sure you know.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44- Is it?- Dhofar is where all the best frankincense is coming from.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46- Still is. - Thank you, Xander.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Now, Simon, welcome back. Thank you so much for joining us.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Thank you. It's a pleasure. Thanks for inviting us back.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54This is scarier than doing Pointless Celebrities, right?
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Absolutely, yeah. It's terrifying.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58We were against Ulrika Jonsson last time.
0:07:58 > 0:07:59LAUGHTER
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Now, we've seen some good answers already,
0:08:03 > 0:08:05have you got anything up your sleeve?
0:08:05 > 0:08:08I hope so - if my spelling doesn't let me down.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10I'm going to go for Djibouti.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Djibouti. Simon says Djibouti.
0:08:13 > 0:08:14Let's see what that scored.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19It's absolutely right.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23We've seen a 14 score, we've seen a pointless answer.
0:08:23 > 0:08:24Where is this going?
0:08:24 > 0:08:25APPLAUSE
0:08:29 > 0:08:30Very well played, Simon.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32Xander, Djibouti?
0:08:32 > 0:08:35Yeah, it was a French territory till 1977.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38I'm just checking there's no F in that - no.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40- Fine, we're fine. - LAUGHTER
0:08:40 > 0:08:41As you were.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47I think we're both appreciating that the other person's job
0:08:47 > 0:08:48is harder than it looks.
0:08:49 > 0:08:50Yeah.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Podium four. Welcome back.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55This is great. This is Pointless history.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57- Christo, welcome.- Thank you.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01- A long time - remind us the year again?- 2009.
0:09:01 > 0:09:042009, do you remember that far back?
0:09:04 > 0:09:06- I do, just about. - That's incredible, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09And you're joining us from foreign climes?
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Yes, I returned two days ago from Cyprus.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15- To be here.- Yeah, that's fine. Yep. - Yeah, good, good.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17LAUGHTER Just checking.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21There are many places you could have returned from that would have been
0:09:21 > 0:09:22a problem for us there, but...
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Thank you so much for coming back and joining us.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27A genuine pleasure to have our first-ever winners here.
0:09:27 > 0:09:28It's absolutely lovely.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Christo, what have you got for us here?
0:09:30 > 0:09:34I did have Djibouti, also. Thank you, Simon(!)
0:09:34 > 0:09:37I shall opt for S for Suriname.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Suriname, says Christo.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Suriname - let's see what that scores.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50We've already seen a pointless answer.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52We've seen a 2 and a 14.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57- Never mind. - APPLAUSE
0:09:57 > 0:10:00We already have quite a battle on our hands.
0:10:00 > 0:10:01Xander, Suriname?
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Yes, Suriname. That's the one.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05LAUGHTER
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Suriname. It's another of those countries, isn't it?
0:10:10 > 0:10:12LAUGHTER
0:10:12 > 0:10:15- That is enlightening stuff(!) - There we are.- Thank you, Xander.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19At the end of the first pass, let's take a little look at those scores.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Patrick, terrific stuff there on podium one.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25We've got a couple of 2s, and 14 is the highest score.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27- Doesn't happen often, does it? - No, it doesn't.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- This is a classy field of people we've got ourselves here.- It is.
0:10:30 > 0:10:31OK, would the second players
0:10:31 > 0:10:33please take your places at the podium?
0:10:36 > 0:10:39David, welcome back to you,
0:10:39 > 0:10:41all the way from 2009.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Do you remember what you spent the money on?
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Erm, I think I was rather...
0:10:46 > 0:10:50staggeringly uninteresting - I think I paid some bills.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51LAUGHTER
0:10:51 > 0:10:53And I had the car serviced.
0:10:53 > 0:10:54You had the car...?
0:10:54 > 0:10:56..He had the car serviced, everybody.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58That's the kind of high-octane stuff
0:10:58 > 0:11:01we're doing on our 1,000th show.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04David, a very impressive first round from everybody.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06What have you got for us? We're looking
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- for a country beginning with one of those letters.- Aruba.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10Aruba? OK, there's your red line,
0:11:10 > 0:11:12if you can score 11 or fewer,
0:11:12 > 0:11:14you'll be safely through to the next round.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Let's see if it is up there,
0:11:16 > 0:11:18and let's and how many people said Aruba.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22GROANING
0:11:22 > 0:11:24- David! David, incorrect. - Oh, what a shame.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27- Xander?- Oh, I'm sorry, David.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29Yeah, it is an island in the Caribbean,
0:11:29 > 0:11:31but I'm afraid it is not... It is not...
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Because when we say country, erm...
0:11:33 > 0:11:34JAUNTY MUSIC PLAYS
0:11:34 > 0:11:37# By country I mean a sovereign state
0:11:37 > 0:11:41# Which is a member of the UN in its own right. #
0:11:41 > 0:11:44And, Aruba, I'm afraid, is not any of those things. I'm sorry.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47- Oh, well.- I'm so sorry.- Never mind.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Now, Trevor, welcome back. Lovely to have you back.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52- Thank you. - Remind us of the charities
0:11:52 > 0:11:54that you gave your Pointless Celebrities money to.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57Yes, it was Surf Life Saving GB, and...
0:11:57 > 0:12:00The Lymphedema Trust.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Excellent. And everyone, tonight as well, don't forget,
0:12:03 > 0:12:04also playing for charity.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08Already £3,500 in that pot. Be lovely to win twice, wouldn't it?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Just got slightly easier after David's answer as well.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Trevor, what have you got for us?
0:12:13 > 0:12:15I was going to go for S and Swaziland.
0:12:15 > 0:12:16Swaziland?
0:12:16 > 0:12:19OK, let's take a look - how many people said Swaziland?
0:12:19 > 0:12:21There's your red line.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Jeopardy.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Swaziland is a country, you're safely through.
0:12:29 > 0:12:30How far down is it going to go?
0:12:30 > 0:12:31APPLAUSE
0:12:34 > 0:12:36So many 2s. So many 2s.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Xander, Swaziland?
0:12:39 > 0:12:42Swaziland, yes. Actually, Swaziland is one of the world's last
0:12:42 > 0:12:45- absolute monarchies.- Did you get that fact from your computer there?
0:12:45 > 0:12:47- I did.- How are you getting on with the old computer?
0:12:47 > 0:12:50Every time I press a button on it, a picture comes up.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52- I just can't... - LAUGHTER
0:12:54 > 0:12:57- Now... Now, David, welcome back. - Thank you.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Do you remember what you spent the money on?
0:12:59 > 0:13:02- I...- Don't say car servicing, cos that would be an amazingly good car.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04No, I can probably say I didn't do that.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06I have a very elderly mother in a California nursing home,
0:13:06 > 0:13:10which is quite expensive, as you can imagine. So I sent quite a lot of the money to
0:13:10 > 0:13:14my sister, who's looking after her there, to help out with the cost of that.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Also, in between recording the programme and it being broadcast,
0:13:17 > 0:13:19- my first granddaughter was born.- Aw.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- So...- A Pointlesser? - LAUGHTER
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Tell me you didn't call her that.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27- Could have done, yeah. It wasn't in my gift, I'm afraid.- I see.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29So we set up a small trust fund for her,
0:13:29 > 0:13:31and I also treated myself to a new kitchen.
0:13:31 > 0:13:35Now, if you can score 87 points or less,
0:13:35 > 0:13:37you are safely through to our second round.
0:13:37 > 0:13:41- What do you have for us?- I'm going to play safe, I think, basically -
0:13:41 > 0:13:43I'm going to go for Uzbekistan.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45Uzbekistan?
0:13:45 > 0:13:48Let's see - can you score 87 points or less
0:13:48 > 0:13:49with Uzbekistan? Let's take a look.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56You can indeed. You're safely through to the next round.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Very well played. Let's see how far down it's going to go.
0:13:59 > 0:14:00APPLAUSE
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- 6 points. I know a fact about Uzbekistan.- Tell me.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10It's one of only two double-landlocked countries in the world.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13- There we are.- It's landlocked by countries all of which are landlocked.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Does the other one begin with one of those...?
0:14:15 > 0:14:18- It doesn't.- Oh.- You must know the other one?
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Look it up. LAUGHTER
0:14:20 > 0:14:21HE CLACKS KEYS
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Lesotho? No, sorry, no...
0:14:23 > 0:14:26- Nearly. Liechtenstein was the other one.- Oh, is it really?
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- Yeah, you can have that.- Thank you.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Now, podium one, Sarah, welcome back.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Lovely to have you here. Three pointless answers -
0:14:33 > 0:14:35was it mainly Patrick's work, or was it yours?
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Yeah, we went with all of your answers.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40We knew a few other ones. It was a very sad around, really.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43And the Strictly Come Dancing was on there, and the Apprentice, so...
0:14:43 > 0:14:46Sometimes they land nicely, don't they? But I have to say, Patrick,
0:14:46 > 0:14:48pointless answer with his first question,
0:14:48 > 0:14:51there's no fluke to what you do, I suspect. Can you match him?
0:14:51 > 0:14:54- No.- You are definitely through to the next round, whatever you say,
0:14:54 > 0:14:57so you might as well go out on a limb. What are you going to give us?
0:14:57 > 0:14:59I was going to go for Tuvalu,
0:14:59 > 0:15:01then it changed to South Sudan. And then...
0:15:01 > 0:15:03They're so popular,
0:15:03 > 0:15:06well, popular, as in 3s and 2s now,
0:15:06 > 0:15:10that I was going to just say Antigua and Barbuda.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Antigua and Barbuda says Sarah, Antigua and Barbuda.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17No red line, how many people said Antigua and Barbuda?
0:15:21 > 0:15:24We've seen a load of 2s, we've seen a pointless.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Can you match Patrick?
0:15:26 > 0:15:27You can!
0:15:34 > 0:15:35Wow!
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Can I point out, Sarah and Patrick,
0:15:37 > 0:15:40that means you've given five answers in a row that are pointless?
0:15:40 > 0:15:42That might be a new record.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44You just added another £1,000 to our jackpot
0:15:44 > 0:15:47which currently stands at £4,500.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51And it keeps your total at a wonderful zero.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54Very, very impressive. Xander, Antigua and Barbuda.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Antigua and Boo...Boo...Bada...
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Oh, yeah?
0:15:58 > 0:15:59XANDER LAUGHS
0:15:59 > 0:16:03Antigua, one of the first Caribbean islands to promote tourism
0:16:03 > 0:16:06and as a consequence, is one of the richest.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Now, Sarah was also thinking of going for Tuvalu or South Sudan,
0:16:09 > 0:16:10how would she do with those?
0:16:10 > 0:16:13OK, wait! Sarah... That's what you do, isn't it? It's clever.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15- It is clever. - Had you gone for Tuvalu,
0:16:15 > 0:16:17actually, I mean, again, another old Pointless favourite.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20Normally scores nothing. 2. They've all been promoted up to 2,
0:16:20 > 0:16:22the old Pointless answers.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- South Sudan, which is a newer favourite.- South Sudan was on 7.
0:16:25 > 0:16:277 points. What else could they have said?
0:16:27 > 0:16:29Any more pointless answers?
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Pointless answers. Let's have a look at the pointless answers.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33LAUGHTER
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Here we are, Antigua and Barbuda, there we are, we've had that.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Azerbaijan, you could have had Dominica...
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Here's another board of those. St Vincent and the Grenadines,
0:16:44 > 0:16:47Sao Tome and Principe and Seychelles.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51Also three more - Solomon Islands, Tajikistan and there's Timor-Leste.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54- Very good, and the top answers? - The top answers. Thank you, Richard.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56LAUGHTER
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Let's take a look at some of the top answers we've got.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03The United States of America there at 47,
0:17:03 > 0:17:07Norway on 49, and a staggering 82 for Denmark.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09Denmark! They'll be delighted with that, won't they?
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Pleased with that in Copenhagen.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14At the end of that round, I'm afraid it's Christo and David,
0:17:14 > 0:17:19I'm so sorry, our first-ever jackpot winners, forever
0:17:19 > 0:17:21etched into Pointless history.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Thank you so much for joining us then, thank you so much for joining us now.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Everybody, Christo and David.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28APPLAUSE
0:17:31 > 0:17:34But, for our remaining contestants, time to play Round Two.
0:17:39 > 0:17:40And then there were three.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42Well, there were six, but you know what I mean.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46Patrick and Sarah, literally you can't play Pointless
0:17:46 > 0:17:48better than that. That's amazing stuff.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51As I say, five pointless answers in a row.
0:17:51 > 0:17:52No pressure for this round at all.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56OK, let's take a look at our category for Round Two.
0:17:56 > 0:17:57It is going to be...
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Numerical answers.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05Take a chat among yourselves about who's going to go first,
0:18:05 > 0:18:07who's going to go second.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10And whoever's going to go first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16OK, let's take a look at your question.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22Answers in the thousands, Xander.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26Yes, basically we're going to show you 12 clues, 6 on each board,
0:18:26 > 0:18:30and the answers of those feature 1,000 of something or other.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33So you have to use your skill and judgment
0:18:33 > 0:18:36to find the most obscure of those answers. Thank you very much.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39Yes, there are 6 on each board, 12 for you to have a go at at home.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41LAUGHTER
0:18:41 > 0:18:43OK, Let's take a look at your first board.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Here are your questions.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14I will read those one more time.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41So, Patrick...?
0:19:41 > 0:19:43Erm, I think I'm...
0:19:43 > 0:19:46I've got to go for Luther Vandross,
0:19:46 > 0:19:49because it's just one of the best songs of all time.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51"A thousand kisses" from you?
0:19:51 > 0:19:54"A thousand kisses", says Patrick.
0:19:54 > 0:19:55Let's see if you're right,
0:19:55 > 0:19:58let's see how many people said "a thousand kisses".
0:19:59 > 0:20:01It is right.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Let's see what it scores.
0:20:05 > 0:20:0719 points, Patrick.
0:20:07 > 0:20:1019 points.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Xander, a thousand kisses from you are never enough.
0:20:13 > 0:20:14Er, yeah, never enough.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18Erm, Never Too Much was actually Luther Vandross's first-ever UK hit.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21So there we are. A thousand kisses.
0:20:21 > 0:20:25John. John, how do you fancy that board?
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Yeah, this is not a great board for me at all.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29I've got a couple up there that I can do,
0:20:29 > 0:20:32but I'm going to go safe and hope somebody gets something wrong.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34I'm going to say the name of the ketchup and mayonnaise-based salad
0:20:34 > 0:20:36dressing is A Thousand Island dressing.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39"Thousand Island dressing," says John.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46It's right.
0:20:48 > 0:20:5061!
0:20:50 > 0:20:5261 points.
0:20:53 > 0:20:54Xander, Thousand Island dressing?
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Thousand Island dressing. Firstly, yum.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00Secondly, supposedly it takes its name from the Thousand Island area
0:21:00 > 0:21:04between the USA and Canada, situated around the Great Lakes,
0:21:04 > 0:21:07which doesn't seem... I always imagined Thousand Islands was rather
0:21:07 > 0:21:10more exotic than that. A bit more sort of...well, hot.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13A bit more sort of Aruba, Antigua and Barbuda?
0:21:13 > 0:21:15That's what I was thinking of, yeah. Yeah.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17Er, Trevor.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Trevor. Do you want to talk us through the rest of this board?
0:21:19 > 0:21:21- It's all yours?- OK.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24The top one, I really probably should know it, but I'm afraid
0:21:24 > 0:21:27I don't, sorry, David Mitchell! This Night Of A Thousand Stars,
0:21:27 > 0:21:30A Thousand And One Nights, maybe?
0:21:30 > 0:21:351981 single by punk band Tenpole Tudor is Swords Of A Thousand Men.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38OK, Trevor is saying Swords Of A Thousand Men - is that correct,
0:21:38 > 0:21:41and if it is, how many people said Swords Of A Thousand Men?
0:21:44 > 0:21:46It is right.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49How far down is this going to go? We've seen a 19, we've seen a 61...
0:21:50 > 0:21:529 points!
0:21:52 > 0:21:539 points!
0:21:55 > 0:21:56Xander, Swords Of A Thousand Men?
0:21:56 > 0:21:58I'll tell you something nice about Swords Of A Thousand Men,
0:21:58 > 0:22:00because it's something that bonds you and me.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Because it's the first single you bought and it's the first
0:22:03 > 0:22:05- single I ever bought.- I didn't know. I was going to tell you it was the
0:22:05 > 0:22:08first one I bought. I didn't know it was the first one YOU bought.
0:22:08 > 0:22:09- Isn't that strange?- Isn't it funny?
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Shall we fill in the rest of the board?
0:22:11 > 0:22:13- I was waiting for you to ask, yeah. - Well, actually, I would say
0:22:13 > 0:22:16that Trevor did a pretty good job there, taking us through it.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19This Night Of A Thousand Stars was exactly right from Evita.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21That would have scored you 26.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24The Thousand And One Nights would have scored you 20.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26And do you know the David Mitchell?
0:22:26 > 0:22:29I do know, I think it's The Thousand Autumns of Jacob De Zoet.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32And that is a pointless answer. So, very well done if you got that.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Well, thank you very much. We're halfway through the round,
0:22:34 > 0:22:36and let's take a look at those scores.
0:22:36 > 0:22:389 points on the last podium there, Trevor and Simon,
0:22:38 > 0:22:40very, very impressive.
0:22:40 > 0:22:41John and David in some trouble now,
0:22:41 > 0:22:43our record jackpot winners.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46And Patrick and Sarah continuing your stately progress
0:22:46 > 0:22:48through the programme. Congratulations.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51OK, would the second player now take their place at the podium?
0:22:54 > 0:22:57OK, we're going to put six more questions up on the board.
0:22:57 > 0:22:58Let's take a look at them now.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33I will read those one more time, because that is what Xander does.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35LAUGHTER
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Now, Simon...
0:24:05 > 0:24:08Well, Trev did very well, so I'm going to play it safe here.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10I'm going to go for the top one,
0:24:10 > 0:24:13and say, a thousand ships.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16"A thousand ships", says Simon.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Let's take a look at your red line.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20You're saying "a thousand ships" - is that right, and if it is,
0:24:20 > 0:24:22how many people said it?
0:24:25 > 0:24:2751 or less will see you safely through.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29It's going down... Ooh!
0:24:29 > 0:24:3153!
0:24:31 > 0:24:33- Ooh!- 53 points!
0:24:33 > 0:24:35A correct answer, though.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Xander, a thousand ships?
0:24:37 > 0:24:41There we are. Yes, from The Tragical History Of D Faustus,
0:24:41 > 0:24:42to give it its full name.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45Published in 1604, but actually first performed
0:24:45 > 0:24:47some decade before that.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Thank you, Xander.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53David, maybe a lifeline - a pointless answer
0:24:53 > 0:24:55would see you through to the next round.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Do you think you can find a pointless answer on this board?
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Er, I think I cannot.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02I'm going to say the Chrysler Building in New York was the first
0:25:02 > 0:25:04building to exceed this height.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06And I'm going to say, a thousand feet.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08A thousand feet.
0:25:08 > 0:25:09"A thousand feet," says David.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12There is your red line, right at the bottom.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15A thousand feet - is that right, and if it is, how many people said it?
0:25:18 > 0:25:20It is right! It is right! Very well done.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22How far down is this going to go?
0:25:22 > 0:25:23You need a pointless answer.
0:25:24 > 0:25:2826. 26 points. Very well played.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Nice to see someone taking a punt.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Yeah, absolutely, very good indeed.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Yeah, so, 1,046ft -
0:25:34 > 0:25:38the Chrysler Building was briefly the tallest building in the world
0:25:38 > 0:25:40when it erected that huge spire on top of the tower.
0:25:40 > 0:25:47Now, Sarah, 67 or less would see you into that head-to-head.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50- Do you want to take us through the board?- No, I can't. So...- OK.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53I have absolutely no idea on any of them.
0:25:53 > 0:25:57I'm just going to have to plump for a thousand miles
0:25:57 > 0:25:59for the Take That song.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02A thousand miles for the Take That song
0:26:02 > 0:26:04and the lyrics of Everything Changes,
0:26:04 > 0:26:06you're saying "a thousand miles". Here is your red line.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Get under that, you are through to the head-to-head.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11How many people said "a thousand miles"?
0:26:15 > 0:26:18It IS a thousand miles, Sarah, and it IS under the red line!
0:26:22 > 0:26:23Whoo!
0:26:26 > 0:26:28Well, that's two people in a row taken a punt.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30A thousand miles.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34It means, unfortunately we lose John and David.
0:26:34 > 0:26:35Oh...let's go through the board!
0:26:35 > 0:26:37Oh, no, that's him! He's supposed to say that!
0:26:37 > 0:26:40Let's go through the board! Oh, good, I thought that was my mistake!
0:26:40 > 0:26:43Yes. I think you'll know some of these, won't you?
0:26:43 > 0:26:44We've both got this wrong!
0:26:44 > 0:26:46I think you'll probably know some of these.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48The city in Ventura County, California -
0:26:48 > 0:26:50- what do you think it's called? - I would think Thousand...
0:26:50 > 0:26:52- Yeah?- ..Oaks?
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Get out of here, you're in! That's it, brilliant!
0:26:54 > 0:26:56You have got that one! That would have scored 11.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59The next one...do you know this one?
0:26:59 > 0:27:01It's something about a thousand suns.
0:27:01 > 0:27:02It's A Thousand Splendid Suns, yes.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04A Thousand Splendid Suns.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Yeah. And that would have scored you 2.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08The 1997 film based on King Lear.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Now, I would be very impressed if you get this one.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13That is, I believe, A Thousand Acres.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16It is! What about that, A Thousand Acres?!
0:27:16 > 0:27:19And that was a pointless answer, so if you got that,
0:27:19 > 0:27:21very, very well done indeed at home!
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Thank you. And also, add to that, you should never watch it -
0:27:23 > 0:27:26- it's terrible. - I'm sort of gleaning that.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29Now, at the end of... John and David, John and David,
0:27:29 > 0:27:31we have to say goodbye to you.
0:27:31 > 0:27:32I don't feel too bad, because
0:27:32 > 0:27:35we've already given you 25 grand. So, you know, I think of anyone
0:27:35 > 0:27:36we've ever had to send home,
0:27:36 > 0:27:38I think you've probably got the broadest grins.
0:27:38 > 0:27:41But thank you for joining us - everybody, John and David!
0:27:41 > 0:27:42APPLAUSE
0:27:44 > 0:27:47- Good luck! - But for our final two pairs,
0:27:47 > 0:27:49it's time to play the head-to-head!
0:27:54 > 0:27:57So, Patrick and Sarah, Trevor and Simon,
0:27:57 > 0:28:01on this very special 1000th edition of Pointless,
0:28:01 > 0:28:04you find yourselves in the head-to-head.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Patrick and Sarah, you are our golden couple,
0:28:06 > 0:28:09you've scored the fewest points so far.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11Trevor and Simon, did you expect to be here?
0:28:11 > 0:28:12THEY LAUGH
0:28:12 > 0:28:14- No!- I'm still thrilled to be here.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17You've beaten two of our finest jackpot winners of all time.
0:28:17 > 0:28:18Don't forget, you can now confer,
0:28:18 > 0:28:22and whichever pair scores two points will be going through to play for
0:28:22 > 0:28:25our jackpot, which currently stands at...
0:28:25 > 0:28:28£4,500!
0:28:30 > 0:28:32So, let's play our head-to-head!
0:28:38 > 0:28:40OK, good luck, everybody, here is your first question.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42And it concerns...
0:28:43 > 0:28:45Party music, Xander.
0:28:45 > 0:28:49Yes, we're simply going to play you five clips from party songs
0:28:49 > 0:28:51and we would like you to tell us which artist
0:28:51 > 0:28:55had a UK top 40 hit with those songs.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58Let's see what sort of parties Xander goes to.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01Let's have a little listen to A.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04# Enough to drive a man to drink
0:29:04 > 0:29:07# I don't do no washing up
0:29:07 > 0:29:09# I always leave the stuff piled up
0:29:09 > 0:29:12# Piled up in the sink
0:29:12 > 0:29:18# But you will always find him in the kitchen at parties... #
0:29:18 > 0:29:20B.
0:29:20 > 0:29:29# Just love me till you don't know how
0:29:29 > 0:29:30# Ooh
0:29:30 > 0:29:34# Keep on with the force, don't stop Don't stop till you get enough
0:29:34 > 0:29:38# Keep on with the force, don't stop Don't stop till you get enough... #
0:29:38 > 0:29:39C.
0:29:42 > 0:29:48# I'm coming up so you better get this party started
0:29:49 > 0:29:55# I'm coming up so you better get this party started... #
0:29:55 > 0:29:57D.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03# Yahoo!
0:30:03 > 0:30:05# This is your celebration
0:30:05 > 0:30:09# Celebrate good times, come on
0:30:10 > 0:30:12# Let's celebrate... #
0:30:13 > 0:30:15And E.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19# Oh, what an atmosphere
0:30:19 > 0:30:23# I love a party with a happy atmosphere
0:30:24 > 0:30:26# So let me take you there
0:30:26 > 0:30:32# And you and I'll be dancing in the cool night air... #
0:30:32 > 0:30:34I was all right on the chorus of that.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36When it got to the verse, I was slightly lost.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39OK, those are your five, so, Patrick and Sarah,
0:30:39 > 0:30:41you're our golden couple, you get to go first.
0:30:41 > 0:30:44We think we're going to go...
0:30:44 > 0:30:47We're going to be quite safe with C, and say P!nk.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50- So C is P!nk. - With an exclamation mark for the I.
0:30:50 > 0:30:54So Patrick and Sarah with an exclamation mark for the "I".
0:30:54 > 0:30:57They sound fairly sure, Trevor and Simon, I'll be honest.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00Hey, you can go through the board, right? Yeah, why don't you
0:31:00 > 0:31:03take us through the whole lot and then choose an answer.
0:31:03 > 0:31:07So, we think that, working backwards, E is...?
0:31:07 > 0:31:08Oh, hang on.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11- That's Russ Abbot! - Yeah, Russ Abbot.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14D, Kool And The Gang.
0:31:14 > 0:31:18B, Michael Jackson and then are we going to go for A?
0:31:18 > 0:31:19We think A is... Shall we say it?
0:31:19 > 0:31:21Yeah. Jona Lewie.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24OK, so Trevor and Simon have said Jona Lewie.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26So, Patrick and Sarah you say P!nk.
0:31:26 > 0:31:29Is that right? If it is, how many people said P!nk?
0:31:31 > 0:31:33It is right.
0:31:37 > 0:31:4223. 23 points.
0:31:42 > 0:31:47So, Trevor and Simon, you need Jona Lewie to beat 23 points.
0:31:47 > 0:31:51Are you correct and if you are, how many people said Jona Lewie?
0:31:54 > 0:31:57There it goes, it's going to be close.
0:31:57 > 0:31:5923 for P!nk.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02You've done it, 15 points.
0:32:04 > 0:32:08So, after one question, Trevor and Simon are leading 1-0.
0:32:08 > 0:32:11- Xander.- Well, thank you very much indeed.
0:32:11 > 0:32:14You did very well to go through the board fantastically efficiently there.
0:32:14 > 0:32:17Actually, interestingly, if you'd gone for E and gone for Russ Abbot,
0:32:17 > 0:32:19you would have scored even better.
0:32:19 > 0:32:20- That was only- 10. No!
0:32:20 > 0:32:22How soon we forget!
0:32:22 > 0:32:23LAUGHTER
0:32:23 > 0:32:25- I- didn't forget.- I- didn't forget.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29He was very much the British Michael Jackson, wasn't he?
0:32:29 > 0:32:30Very much.
0:32:30 > 0:32:31LAUGHTER
0:32:31 > 0:32:35D, Kool And The Gang, absolutely right,
0:32:35 > 0:32:37that would have scored you 19.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40B, Michael Jackson, you were absolutely right there.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43- That would have scored you 38 points.- 38 points.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46OK. So, 1-0 to Trevor and Simon.
0:32:46 > 0:32:50Patrick and Sarah, you need to get this one right to pull level.
0:32:50 > 0:32:52Your next question concerns...
0:32:56 > 0:32:58- Xander.- So, yeah, this is fun.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01We are going to show you five tabloid-style headlines,
0:33:01 > 0:33:05each of which tell the story of a famous pantomime.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08We'd like you to identify the pantomimes concerned and
0:33:08 > 0:33:11- say the most obscure one. - That's very good.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13- This is so weird. - Isn't it? I know, I know.
0:33:13 > 0:33:15I'm so looking forward to show 1,001, where I can sit back
0:33:15 > 0:33:18- down again. That would be great. - 1,001 Shows.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20- Oh, that's nice.- Tales Of...
0:33:20 > 0:33:23Let's take a look at your first one.
0:33:46 > 0:33:47LAUGHTER
0:33:47 > 0:33:50Girl runs away to live with seven small men.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52And E.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01There are your headlines.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03Trevor and Simon, you're first on this.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06I'll give you a little while to confer.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13- OK, C.- C, yes.
0:34:13 > 0:34:17- Beauty And The Beast.- C is Beauty And The Beast, say Trevor and Simon.
0:34:17 > 0:34:22Patrick and Sarah, what have you got to rival that?
0:34:22 > 0:34:24Not very good.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27D is obviously Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30And then A is Aladdin.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33We really can't think of what the other two could be.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36So, I think we will have to go for Aladdin for A.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39So, Aladdin. So, Trevor and Simon have said Beauty And The Beast
0:34:39 > 0:34:41and Patrick and Sarah have said Aladdin.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43So, Beauty And The Beast, Trevor and Simon.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46Is that right? If it is, how many people said it?
0:34:48 > 0:34:52It is Beauty And The Beast. How far down is this going to go?
0:34:53 > 0:34:5642. 42.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01So, Patrick and Sarah said Aladdin.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Is that right, and if it is, how many people said Aladdin?
0:35:07 > 0:35:10It is right. It has to go below 42.
0:35:10 > 0:35:11It doesn't go below 42.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15It doesn't.
0:35:15 > 0:35:17And that means after just two questions, Trevor and Simon,
0:35:17 > 0:35:19you are through to our final.
0:35:19 > 0:35:21APPLAUSE
0:35:23 > 0:35:24Xander.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26Well, you all did well to avoid
0:35:26 > 0:35:29"girl runs away to live with seven small men".
0:35:29 > 0:35:31Snow White there would have scored you 87.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33Big, high score there.
0:35:33 > 0:35:36The next most popular one was...
0:35:36 > 0:35:37LAUGHTER
0:35:37 > 0:35:39..E!
0:35:41 > 0:35:43It was, of course, Dick Whittington.
0:35:43 > 0:35:47That would have scored you 43. That would have been tense with 42.
0:35:47 > 0:35:50That would have been... Can you imagine? Why didn't you say THAT?
0:35:50 > 0:35:54- That would have been amazing. - And that just leaves us with B.
0:35:57 > 0:35:58And that was The Snow Queen.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01The story that inspired Frozen.
0:36:01 > 0:36:0214 points.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04- 14 points.- The best one on the board.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07Thank you, Xander. So, the pair leaving us at the end
0:36:07 > 0:36:09of the head-to-head is Patrick and Sarah.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12Have you enjoyed your second bite at the cherry?
0:36:12 > 0:36:14Yes, very good, we loved it.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16It's been an absolute pleasure having you here.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18Thank you for joining us on this special celebration.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20Everybody, Patrick and Sarah.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22APPLAUSE
0:36:23 > 0:36:28But for Trevor and Simon, it's time to play our 1,000th Pointless final.
0:36:33 > 0:36:34So, gents,
0:36:34 > 0:36:37you fought off all the competition and you are walking away with our
0:36:37 > 0:36:401,000th coveted Pointless trophy.
0:36:47 > 0:36:48THEY CHEER
0:36:48 > 0:36:50Thank you, that's exciting.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54You now have a chance to win today's
0:36:54 > 0:36:56special charity jackpot, and at the end of the show
0:36:56 > 0:37:01that stands at £4,500.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07Well, as always, there will be four categories.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10You've got to choose one of these. Hopefully something you fancy here.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13Let's take a look at what they are today on our 1,000th show.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24Music By Numbers or Acting Toms.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26I'd say Acting Toms.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29Yeah, I think you're going to do well on that.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32- Well, I don't know. - It's worth a shot.
0:37:32 > 0:37:33Acting Toms, I think, yeah.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35Acting Toms, you're going for.
0:37:35 > 0:37:39OK, so much better than peeping Toms, I find.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42Let's hope there's something up here that you
0:37:42 > 0:37:44can get your teeth into.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47We are looking for Tom Hardy films - yes, we're looking for
0:37:47 > 0:37:49any feature film made for cinema release
0:37:49 > 0:37:52for which the Oscar-nominated actor Tom Hardy has received
0:37:52 > 0:37:55an acting credit as of the end of February, 2016.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00Any feature film starring Tom Selleck.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05These again are feature films, cinema releases
0:38:05 > 0:38:09starring Tom Wilkinson - and in all cases, no TV films,
0:38:09 > 0:38:11no documentaries...
0:38:11 > 0:38:13all the stuff he normally says.
0:38:15 > 0:38:19As always, you've got one minute to come up with three answers.
0:38:19 > 0:38:21If one of those answers is Pointless,
0:38:21 > 0:38:24you're going to walk away with £4,500.
0:38:24 > 0:38:27Gents, very best of luck. Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:38:28 > 0:38:29Your time starts now.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32I'm going to jump in very quickly with three.
0:38:32 > 0:38:35- Please do.- OK.- Tom Wilkinson,
0:38:35 > 0:38:38and I'm not sure of the title, but In The Bedroom.
0:38:38 > 0:38:44- OK.- Tom Wilkinson, even though people may know...
0:38:44 > 0:38:48What was the first of the Christopher Nolan Batman ones?
0:38:48 > 0:38:50Was it Batman Begins?
0:38:50 > 0:38:53Batman Begins and The Dark Knight.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55- It was Batman Begins.- OK, good.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58It's a big film, but he was only in it for a bit, so I would think that.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00- Thank you.- And then Tom Selleck...
0:39:02 > 0:39:04..and this is going into a random thing and I'm trying to think
0:39:04 > 0:39:07quickly, but I think he did a film called Lassiter.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09- Did he?- Yeah.- OK.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11So, Lassiter.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13I can think of others.
0:39:13 > 0:39:14Tom Hardy...
0:39:14 > 0:39:17- The thing is just to say what you know.- OK.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19Ten seconds left, gents.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22I would go for Lassiter, In The Bedroom, and Batman Begins.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24And if you like, we'll just go with them.
0:39:24 > 0:39:28- Yeah, OK. OK.- You happy? That is your time up.
0:39:28 > 0:39:31Do you have three answers? It sounds like you do have three answers for us.
0:39:31 > 0:39:35Yes, we're going to go for Tom Wilkinson and we're going to go for In The Bedroom.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37You are going to go for Tom Wilkinson In The Bedroom.
0:39:37 > 0:39:38LAUGHTER
0:39:38 > 0:39:40It did sound funny, didn't it?
0:39:40 > 0:39:42We're going to go for Tom Wilkinson, Batman Begins.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Tom Wilkinson, Batman Begins.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47And then we're going to go for Tom Selleck, Lassiter.
0:39:47 > 0:39:49Lassiter. Lassiter.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52Which of those do you think is most likely to be a pointless answer?
0:39:52 > 0:39:55- In The Bedroom.- And which is the most obvious one you've gone for?
0:39:55 > 0:39:57The most obvious is Batman Begins.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00We will put that first.
0:40:06 > 0:40:07Now, before we look at these,
0:40:07 > 0:40:10£4,500 you're playing for. Gents, what are your charities?
0:40:10 > 0:40:11Trevor?
0:40:11 > 0:40:13Mine is a mental health charity,
0:40:13 > 0:40:15that is where I'd like my money to go.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Excellent, and Simon?
0:40:17 > 0:40:20I've picked the Huntington's Disease Association.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Excellent, lovely charities, gents.
0:40:26 > 0:40:29Hopefully, one of these can win you that money.
0:40:29 > 0:40:32The first answer you gave us was Batman Begins,
0:40:32 > 0:40:34you gave as an answer for Tom Wilkinson films.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37If that's correct and if it's a Pointless answer,
0:40:37 > 0:40:39you'll win £4,500.
0:40:39 > 0:40:40Batman Begins.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42Is it a Tom Wilkinson film?
0:40:46 > 0:40:48It is. It is a Tom Wilkinson film.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50You need this to go down to zero.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Through the 40s, now,
0:40:52 > 0:40:53into the 30s,
0:40:53 > 0:40:56into the teens. It's going down.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59- 2 points.- Oh!
0:40:59 > 0:41:002 points.
0:41:04 > 0:41:052, again?
0:41:05 > 0:41:07But you thought that was your most obvious answer.
0:41:07 > 0:41:12- Yeah.- Now, your next answer was Lassiter.
0:41:12 > 0:41:14If that is a Tom Selleck film and if it's Pointless,
0:41:14 > 0:41:16you'll walk away with £4,500.
0:41:16 > 0:41:17Let's take a look.
0:41:17 > 0:41:20Is Lassiter a Tom Selleck film?
0:41:24 > 0:41:26It IS a Tom Selleck film.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28It is a Tom Selleck film.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30You learn something new every day.
0:41:30 > 0:41:33Into the 30s, we've had 2 points from our first answer.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35Is this going to keep going down?
0:41:41 > 0:41:42Well done.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47Amazing. Amazing.
0:41:53 > 0:41:54This is the man.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56Congratulations, Trevor and Simon.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58Lassiter was a Pointless answer,
0:41:58 > 0:42:01which means your charities are walking away with £4,500.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08How do you do it?
0:42:08 > 0:42:10Done it again, Xander. How about that?
