0:02:50 > 0:02:54the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:54 > 0:02:55will be eliminated.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58That's all. I shall say no more about it.
0:02:58 > 0:03:02Best of luck to all four players. Our first category this afternoon...
0:03:02 > 0:03:05is Initials.
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Can you all decide in your pairs
0:03:06 > 0:03:09who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11And, whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19OK. So, our Initials question is all about...
0:03:19 > 0:03:22things beginning with the initials HP.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Initials HP, Richard.
0:03:24 > 0:03:25Yeah - seven clues on each board.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Every single answer has the initials HP,
0:03:28 > 0:03:30so there's going to be 14 in all
0:03:30 > 0:03:32to have a go at at home. Very best of luck.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Thank you very much indeed. OK, let's reveal our first board of seven clues, and here they are...
0:04:15 > 0:04:17I'm going to read those all again.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46There we are. Martyn...
0:04:46 > 0:04:48- Hello.- Martyn, welcome to the show.
0:04:48 > 0:04:49- Good to have you here, from Cardiff.- Indeed.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52What keeps you busy in Cardiff?
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Well, I work for a pension company,
0:04:54 > 0:04:58and outside work I like to do, erm... Do sport,
0:04:58 > 0:04:59and travel as well.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03Very good. Do you go and travel the world, do you have...?
0:05:03 > 0:05:05I do, I am one of the oldest backpackers -
0:05:05 > 0:05:08I didn't do the gap year when I finished university,
0:05:08 > 0:05:10so I travelled about three years ago,
0:05:10 > 0:05:12I travelled round the world in my early 40s, for six months.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15How IS backpacking in your 40s?
0:05:15 > 0:05:16It's good, actually.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Because you do get the credit card out from time to time
0:05:19 > 0:05:21- when you fancy a bit of luxury... - There we are.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22Nice hotel room, and, er...
0:05:22 > 0:05:25Slum it for a bit and then a bit of luxury at the end of the week, yeah.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Very good. Now, Martyn - HP.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32OK. There's a few on there that...
0:05:32 > 0:05:35A couple I know, a couple I'm...
0:05:35 > 0:05:37If forced to, I would go for -
0:05:37 > 0:05:38if I had to.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40But I think I'll play a bit safe
0:05:40 > 0:05:41and go with the British playwright
0:05:41 > 0:05:43who received the 2005 Nobel Prize
0:05:43 > 0:05:44for Literature,
0:05:44 > 0:05:46- Harold Pinter. - Harold Pinter, says Martyn -
0:05:46 > 0:05:48let's see if that right, let's see
0:05:48 > 0:05:51how many of our 100 people said Harold Pinter.
0:05:54 > 0:05:55It's right.
0:05:58 > 0:06:0042. APPLAUSE
0:06:00 > 0:06:01Higher than I thought.
0:06:01 > 0:06:0342. You were hoping that would go down a little bit lower.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05I thought it might.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07You felt it deserved a lower score, Martyn.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09He's a Nobel Literature winner!
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Yeah, I thought that would be a bit lower, but a nice start.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14We talked a little bit about Danny Dyer on the last show...
0:06:14 > 0:06:16- We did.- ..and he was in a couple of Pinter plays.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19He was, back in the early 2000s.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21There we are. Thank you very much, Richard.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Now, Janet, welcome back.
0:06:23 > 0:06:24Remind us what you do.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27I'm a legal secretary for a local solicitor's firm.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30A legal secretary for a local CRIME solicitors, we discovered last time,
0:06:30 > 0:06:32which is exciting.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35What are your interests otherwise?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38I'm a Leeds United season ticket-holder,
0:06:38 > 0:06:40I like watching tennis,
0:06:40 > 0:06:43I like travelling and I like eating out.
0:06:43 > 0:06:44Very good.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Now, Janet - HP.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49I'll go for the UK rock band -
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Humble Pie.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Humble Pie, says Janet,
0:06:53 > 0:06:57Humble Pie. That's such a "UK rock band from the 1960s" name!
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Humble Pie.
0:07:00 > 0:07:01Let's see how right that is,
0:07:01 > 0:07:03let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12- Look at that.- Wow.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Look at that! 16. APPLAUSE
0:07:15 > 0:07:19There you go - Humble Pie knocking Harold Pinter into a cocked hat,
0:07:19 > 0:07:22which incidentally would be another good name, Cocked Hat, for a...
0:07:22 > 0:07:25That's another great '60s... Yeah. Humble Pie.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29An UMBLE pie is also a genuine pie, made of kind of...innards -
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- hearts and livers and kidneys.- Mm.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35You're making it sound delicious. LAUGHTER
0:07:35 > 0:07:36I'm not really big on innards...
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- On offal.- Giblets and offal. Offal's the word I'm looking for.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42- I don't mind offal. - I bet YOU like a bit of offal.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44I love a bit of offal, actually. Ohhh.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47When you eat it, do you say, "Oh, you are OFFAL, but I like you?"
0:07:47 > 0:07:48LAUGHTER
0:07:48 > 0:07:50Constantly.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51Thank you very much indeed.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Now, Martin. Martin, welcome back to the show.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57- Thank you.- Good to have you here. Remind us what you do, Martin.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59I'm a stock controller for a dairy company in Leeds.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03That is right, you check that stock. So you're basically just checking volumes, are you?
0:08:03 > 0:08:05- Yeah. Correct. - And then off it goes...
0:08:05 > 0:08:07- Off it goes. Yeah. - To the great wide world.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11- In a timely manner.- That's the other thing, of course. Volume and timing.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15- Yes.- Is there anything from your particular dairy
0:08:15 > 0:08:16that, er...you take home?
0:08:16 > 0:08:20- I don't take any of it home...- No. LAUGHTER
0:08:20 > 0:08:21I purchase some of it from...
0:08:21 > 0:08:24- Good.- ..some of the finer supermarkets that stock it...
0:08:24 > 0:08:27- That is good.- ..shall we say. - What do you make of the new world
0:08:27 > 0:08:30of coconut milk and almond milk and all this business?
0:08:30 > 0:08:31It's mental, Richard.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- That's what it is. - LAUGHTER
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Good to get that from an independent...observer.
0:08:35 > 0:08:36Yeah. Absolutely. Mental.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Martin, what will you go for?
0:08:39 > 0:08:40I'm going to go for
0:08:40 > 0:08:42the England women's footballer
0:08:42 > 0:08:44who managed the national team,
0:08:44 > 0:08:46- Hope Powell.- Hope Powell,
0:08:46 > 0:08:49says Martin, to the admiration of one and all. Well done.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Yes.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Hope Powell - let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:08:58 > 0:09:0142's our highest score...
0:09:01 > 0:09:02Past it. 16's our lowest score.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Past it. 8 for Hope Powell.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06APPLAUSE
0:09:08 > 0:09:10Great work, Martin, very well played.
0:09:10 > 0:09:1235 goals and 66 caps for Hope Powell.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15- She's been on the show, hasn't she, Hope Powell.- Mm.- She's lovely.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Her brother is in The Libertines.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19The drummer.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21- Wow!- Yeah. How about that?
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- I did not know that.- Good fact, isn't it?- It's a good fact!
0:09:23 > 0:09:24Gary Powell.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Gary Powell is Hope Powell's brother?
0:09:26 > 0:09:29There we are, thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:09:29 > 0:09:30Now, then, Chris -
0:09:30 > 0:09:34a warm welcome to Pointless, lovely to have you here.
0:09:34 > 0:09:35- All the way from Great Malvern.- Yeah.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38Oh, lovely Great Malvern. What do you do there, Chris?
0:09:38 > 0:09:41Erm... I'm a careers adviser in a couple of schools in Hereford.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44So, I just spend my days talking to young people,
0:09:44 > 0:09:46finding out what it is they want to do with their lives,
0:09:46 > 0:09:49and pointing them in the right direction.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51- There you are. - And it works.- That's good.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Do you know, actually, a careers adviser at my school did say...
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Librarian was one of them, but also television,
0:09:55 > 0:09:56actually, funnily enough.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58- Did he(?)- Yeah!
0:09:58 > 0:10:00- You should give it a go.- Yeah.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02LAUGHTER
0:10:02 > 0:10:05And the librarian thing, I've got that. Shh!
0:10:05 > 0:10:07See?
0:10:07 > 0:10:11- Shh!- That's cos you're used to hearing that sound.
0:10:11 > 0:10:12- Ah, yes.- Shh!- There we are.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Now, Chris, what would you like to go for on this board?
0:10:14 > 0:10:17It's all yours - if you want to fill in all the blanks, you may.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Well, I've lost Hope, unfortunately - cos she was my main bet.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23And eating Humble Pie is going to be no good.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25So I don't know the Owen Wilson film,
0:10:25 > 0:10:29so I'm going to have to go for Hocus Pocus,
0:10:29 > 0:10:31the 1993 supernatural Disney film.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Hocus Pocus, says Chris. Let's see if that's right.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Let's see how many of our 100 people said Hocus Pocus.
0:10:39 > 0:10:40It's right.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Where is it going to end up?
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Oh, it's a good score, Chris.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Look at that, 24 - very well done indeed.
0:10:47 > 0:10:48- Wow.- Hocus Pocus.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Lovely play, Chris. Very well done.
0:10:52 > 0:10:53Now, let's fill in these, shall we?
0:10:53 > 0:10:55That top one - any idea on the top one?
0:10:57 > 0:10:59It's Daniel Radcliffe from The Woman In Black.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03- Haley Porter, is it? - It's so close, so close.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05It's Harry Potter, is the answer there.
0:11:05 > 0:11:09Would have scored you 94 points. 94.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Now, the best answer on the board,
0:11:11 > 0:11:13it won't surprise you, is the second one.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15It's Howard Phillips Lovecraft.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17- Howard Phillips. - Three points for that.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20And the comedy film - it's another good answer, actually -
0:11:20 > 0:11:23- is Hall Pass.- Hall Pass.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25And that scores six points.
0:11:25 > 0:11:26Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28We're halfway through the round,
0:11:28 > 0:11:29let's take a quick look at those scores.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31To recap, Martin and Bill
0:11:31 > 0:11:32looking very strong at this stage,
0:11:32 > 0:11:34with a lovely low score of eight,
0:11:34 > 0:11:37thanks to Martin's brilliant answer of Hope Powell in that last pass.
0:11:37 > 0:11:38Then we travel up to 16,
0:11:38 > 0:11:41where we find Janet and Julie, very well done.
0:11:41 > 0:11:42Up to 24, Chris and James.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Then up to 42, Martyn and Shirley.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Now... Yes, I know,
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Harold Pinter.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49I think it's heartening
0:11:49 > 0:11:51that so many people knew that,
0:11:51 > 0:11:54but I'm sorry you had to bear the brunt of his fame.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56So, Shirley, I'm afraid it will fall to you,
0:11:56 > 0:11:59you'll be the last person to answer, and I hope there will be something
0:11:59 > 0:12:01left on the board that you can score a nice low score with.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Let's hope it keeps you in the game.
0:12:03 > 0:12:04We're going to come back down the line now.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11OK, let's put some more clues up on the board - and here they are...
0:12:54 > 0:12:56I am going to read all of those again.
0:13:23 > 0:13:24Now, then, James.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Welcome. Good to have you here -
0:13:27 > 0:13:30with your dad! Now, whose idea was it to come on the show?
0:13:30 > 0:13:32- It was his idea, actually.- His idea.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34- Kind of both of us, actually. - There we are.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36James, what do you do?
0:13:36 > 0:13:39I'm kind of a technical and sales assistant in an electronics company.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42- Right, how long have you done that for?- Two years.- Two years.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44At any stage, did your dad say,
0:13:44 > 0:13:47"Well, electronics company..."?
0:13:47 > 0:13:51- No. Not ever.- Oh, and you have all that expertise!
0:13:51 > 0:13:53Every morning at the breakfast table
0:13:53 > 0:13:55and you just go, "No, not interested."
0:13:55 > 0:14:00James, there we are, we're on 24.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02The highest scorers at this end of the run
0:14:02 > 0:14:04are Shirley and Martyn on 42,
0:14:04 > 0:14:07so 17 or less gets you through.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10How are we feeling about this nice new board, James?
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Yeah, I think I know a few.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17But I think I'm going to go for the top one, the US actress,
0:14:17 > 0:14:19and go for Hayden Panettiere.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Hayden Panettiere.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Hayden Panettiere.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25It's amazing how many things there are beginning with H and P.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27Aren't there?
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Well, yes! Hayden Panettiere, says James.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Here is your red line, it's low.
0:14:33 > 0:14:34But Hayden Panettiere sounds like a name
0:14:34 > 0:14:36that might go low down on the column.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Let's hope it does. How many of our 100 people said it?
0:14:46 > 0:14:48James, look at that -
0:14:48 > 0:14:49heroic is what that is.
0:14:49 > 0:14:5214, takes your total up to 38.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Very, very well done.
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Well played, James.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59Yes, she's engaged to the boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko,
0:14:59 > 0:15:01Hayden Panettiere, who was an answer
0:15:01 > 0:15:04in our slightly less successful Things With The Initials WK round.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07Yes. Thanks very much, Richard.
0:15:07 > 0:15:08Bill.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Welcome back, Bill.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Remind us what you do.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13- Retired.- That's right, you have retired.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17- And what did you do before then? - Lorry driver, bus driver,
0:15:17 > 0:15:20I even had a Bentley at one time.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23- Now, did you do lorry driving on the Continent as well...- No, no.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25- ..or was it just within the UK?- Yes.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29- See, that must've been quite fun, wasn't it?- It was OK, yeah.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32Did you get to see all the same people again and again,
0:15:32 > 0:15:33- or was it...?- Not really, no.
0:15:33 > 0:15:34Oh, really? LAUGHTER
0:15:34 > 0:15:36I'm trying to work out, is that a good thing or a bad thing,
0:15:36 > 0:15:39- that's the thing. - A good thing.- A good thing.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41But they have some of those routes,
0:15:41 > 0:15:44there's that route, the ice road, isn't it, where all the truckers,
0:15:44 > 0:15:46- they're almost like family there.- Yeah.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48But, I guess, it's not the same brotherhood.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51- I used to do all the docks. - Ah, right.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53- Down here and north.- Right, I see.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56So no brotherhood among hauliers there.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Now, Bill, you're on eight.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02The high-scorers still Shirley and Martyn on 42 - so 33 or less.
0:16:03 > 0:16:08I will go for the Baroque composer of Fairy Queen.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10I think it's Henry Purcell.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Henry Purcell, says Bill.
0:16:12 > 0:16:13Let's see if that's right.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14Here is your red line.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Get below that with Henry Purcell, you're through to the next round.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19How many people said Henry Purcell?
0:16:27 > 0:16:28Very well done, exact.
0:16:28 > 0:16:29Perfect economy.
0:16:29 > 0:16:3225, taking your total up to 33.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34Ooh, it's getting very, very close.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Great work, Bill. Henry Purcell,
0:16:36 > 0:16:39he was the organist at Westminster Abbey by the time he was 20.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41- Amazing.- That's young, isn't it?
0:16:41 > 0:16:46Yeah, very young, and a very forward-thinking composer as well.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48- Yeah, tell me about it. - Very progressive.
0:16:48 > 0:16:52He was progressive, also very briefly in the Libertines.
0:16:52 > 0:16:53That's right. Yeah.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56If you were going to be an instrumentalist in the Libertines,
0:16:56 > 0:16:59harpsichordist was absolutely the one to go for, wasn't it?
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Thank you very much, Richard. Now, then,
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Julie, welcome back.
0:17:04 > 0:17:05Welcome back.
0:17:05 > 0:17:06Remind us what you do.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08I'm a mostly retired accountant.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12That's right, a mostly retired accountant, and a fine chef as well.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15I wouldn't call myself a chef, a cook.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17All right, a cook.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20- But you've done a course - you did Raymond Blanc's course.- I did.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23It's quite a long time ago now, but I went there for a week.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25I went mostly just so I could eat his food, really.
0:17:25 > 0:17:26So while you're there,
0:17:26 > 0:17:28- in the evenings you eat all the stuff that...?- Yeah.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30See, that's nice.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Anyway, Julie, there you are, 16.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35It's getting tense on podium one, Shirley.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Julie, if you can score less than 25
0:17:38 > 0:17:40you're definitely in the next round.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43- This is a very hard board. - It's getting harder, isn't it?
0:17:43 > 0:17:45It's getting hard to choose which one.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48I may regret this,
0:17:48 > 0:17:50but I'm going to go for the U-shaped ramp, and say half-pipe.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Half pipe, says Julie. Half-pipe.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54Let's see what age our 100 people are.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- That's it!- There is your red line.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59How many of our 100 people said half-pipe?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08- Oh!- You've done it!
0:18:08 > 0:18:09Look at that, you've done it!
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Very well done indeed.
0:18:11 > 0:18:1324 is your total.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17- Wow.- Very nicely played there.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19They do extraordinary stunts on half-pipes,
0:18:19 > 0:18:21snowboarding and skateboarding as well.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23It's a genuinely beautiful thing to watch.
0:18:23 > 0:18:24If you ever watch the X Games,
0:18:24 > 0:18:26or now they've got the half-pipe snowboarding
0:18:26 > 0:18:29in the Olympic Games as well, in the Winter Olympics.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Genuinely balletic, gymnastic,
0:18:32 > 0:18:33creative, incredible stuff.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Thank you, Richard. Shirley...
0:18:36 > 0:18:37- Oh, Shirley.- Hi!
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Blame Harold Pinter.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42- Yes.- Yes.- And his success.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45Now, Shirley, I'm afraid you're our highest scorers,
0:18:45 > 0:18:46but welcome to the show.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Let's get this chat...
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Let's get this chat in before you leave.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52- What do you do, Shirley? - I'm an architect.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55- An architect - based in Cardiff? - Indeed, yeah.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57- Where are you from originally? - Northern Ireland.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59That's right, I can just hear that there.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01What do you do in your spare time?
0:19:01 > 0:19:05I play a lot of tennis, I am captain of my local mixed team
0:19:05 > 0:19:07- at my tennis club. - Do you play doubles?
0:19:07 > 0:19:09We play doubles, yes.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12- South East Wales league. - Martyn, is she quite competitive?
0:19:12 > 0:19:16- She beats me comfortably.- OK.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19- So, do you ever play as a doubles...?- No.- No.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Not as a doubles... No!
0:19:21 > 0:19:23I think that sounds like a sensible option.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Shirley, what would you like to go for?
0:19:25 > 0:19:27I'm sorry to say that you have no targets
0:19:27 > 0:19:28- and no red line.- No.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30That board's all yours -
0:19:30 > 0:19:32do you want to talk us through it?
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Well, it's Hyde Park,
0:19:34 > 0:19:35is the Royal Park.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Rocky Horror Picture Show.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39I don't know the film.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42And the unit of health...
0:19:42 > 0:19:44I'm going to have a guess at that one, cos it doesn't matter.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47Hit point?
0:19:48 > 0:19:49Hit point.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52There was me thinking it was hot paint.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Hit point, let's see, is that right?
0:19:54 > 0:19:57No red line, I'm afraid, cos you're already our highest scorers,
0:19:57 > 0:20:00but how many of our 100 people said hit point?
0:20:01 > 0:20:04- It's right, hit point!- No!
0:20:08 > 0:20:11Oh, 11! Look what a great answer that was!
0:20:11 > 0:20:13- Martyn...- Yeah, I know.
0:20:13 > 0:20:1453 is your total.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Very well done.
0:20:16 > 0:20:17A great way to leave us, Shirley.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20A promise of things to come on the next show as well,
0:20:20 > 0:20:22and you've helped us avoid this 33% Martin situation
0:20:22 > 0:20:24that we were worried about.
0:20:24 > 0:20:25You were right about Hyde Park, of course,
0:20:25 > 0:20:29you were right to avoid it as well - very, very big scorer, 87 points.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Rocky Horror Picture Show,
0:20:32 > 0:20:34also a big scorer - 53.
0:20:34 > 0:20:35Now, do you know this last one?
0:20:35 > 0:20:37- The Hudsucker Proxy. - The Hudsucker Proxy, yeah.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40It was their last flop, really. Five points for that one.
0:20:40 > 0:20:41Not their last flop, the last one
0:20:41 > 0:20:44before they became really mainstream and their films made a lot of money.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46- The last one before Fargo. - That's right, yes.
0:20:46 > 0:20:47Thank you very much indeed.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50So, at the end of our first round, the pair who are heading home
0:20:50 > 0:20:52with their high score of 50 - it's not that high a score -
0:20:52 > 0:20:55but clearly everyone else had revised on their HPs,
0:20:55 > 0:20:58which perhaps we should all have done.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00But as Richard said, this all bodes very well.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Very good, tactical scoring there,
0:21:02 > 0:21:05and good intuitive thinking going through the board.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07I'm sure you'll do much, much better next time,
0:21:07 > 0:21:09but thanks very much, meantime, for playing.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Shirley and Martyn.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16But, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23And now, magically, we're down to three pairs.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26At the end of this round, we'll have to say goodbye to another pair,
0:21:26 > 0:21:28but that went very good, that round.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Good round. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:21:30 > 0:21:34Our category for Round Two this afternoon...
0:21:34 > 0:21:35is Board Games.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37Board Games. Can you all decide in your pairs,
0:21:37 > 0:21:39who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42And, whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47OK, let's find out what the question is - here it comes.
0:21:47 > 0:21:52We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:21:56 > 0:21:57..as they could.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Properties on the Monopoly board
0:21:59 > 0:22:01that do not contain the word "street", Richard.
0:22:01 > 0:22:02We're looking for any properties
0:22:02 > 0:22:04on the classic London Monopoly board, please.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06So that's squares that you can buy
0:22:06 > 0:22:08that do not contain the word "street", please.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11So any square you can buy that does not contain the word "street".
0:22:11 > 0:22:14- Very best of luck. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16Julie.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18I'll go for Pentonville Road.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Pentonville Road. Very good indeed.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Let's see if that's right,
0:22:21 > 0:22:24let's see how many of our 100 people said Pentonville Road.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36Very nice indeed. 10 for Pentonville Road.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Very solid, confident start there.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44A light-blue property, £120, Pentonville Road.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Hm. Thank you, Richard. Martin.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Yeah, I've got a couple.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53So I'm going to go for the Electricity Company.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55The Electricity Company, says Martin.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people
0:22:58 > 0:22:59went for that - the Electricity Company.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04It's right.
0:23:09 > 0:23:10There we are, 11.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14- The Electricity Company. - Yeah, we'll accept that.
0:23:14 > 0:23:18The Electric Company - costs £150 to buy.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Although since deregulation, it's now £14,800 to buy.
0:23:21 > 0:23:22LAUGHTER
0:23:22 > 0:23:23Thank you very much, Richard.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Now, James.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29I've got a couple.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31I think...
0:23:31 > 0:23:33I think I'll go for the Angel Islington.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35The Angel Islington, says James.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Let's see how many of our 100 people went for the Angel Islington.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45It's right. Well, 11 is our high score, 10 our low.
0:23:47 > 0:23:4924?!
0:23:51 > 0:23:5424, what about that? It's just at the top of Pentonville Road as well.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56- I know, right?- I know!- That's weird.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58Although it's cheaper on the Monopoly board - £100.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59- These days it wouldn't be, would it?- No.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02- Property prices in the Angel. - You're on City Road, practically.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04- Through the roof!- Yeah. Thank you very much.- Pleasure.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08Before we head back up the line, let's take a look at those scores.
0:24:08 > 0:24:1010 the best score of that pass.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12Very well done indeed, Julie.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Then up to 11, where we find Martin and Bill.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18Then we hike all the way up the mountain to a 24,
0:24:18 > 0:24:20where we find James and Chris.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22So, Chris...
0:24:22 > 0:24:24my advice to you, in your immediate career,
0:24:24 > 0:24:27would be to find a very low-scoring answer on the board.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29- Thank you.- Best of luck with that.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31We're going to come back down the line now.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33Can the second players please step up to the podium.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38So, Chris, we are looking for Monopoly properties
0:24:38 > 0:24:40that do not contain the word "street".
0:24:40 > 0:24:43You're on 24, you are our high-scorers.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46Right. Erm...OK.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49That's narrowed it down. Got to take a bit of a gamble.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52I think I'll go for the Water Works.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54The Water Works, says Chris.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Well, the Electric Company scored 11.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58The Water Works, let's see what they score.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01No red line for you as you're the high-scorers.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Look at that, 13. APPLAUSE
0:25:12 > 0:25:16Water more popular than electricity, evidently. 37 is your total.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19Again, £150 to buy Water Works,
0:25:19 > 0:25:20for what that's worth.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23Thank you very much, Richard.
0:25:23 > 0:25:24Now, then, Bill.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27You're on 11. If you can score 25 or less,
0:25:27 > 0:25:30you are in the head-to-head.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Yeah, Mayfair.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Mayfair, says Bill.
0:25:34 > 0:25:35Mayfair. Here is your red line.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39Get below that with Mayfair, you are into the head-to-head.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41How many of our 100 people said Mayfair?
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Ooh! 57.
0:25:49 > 0:25:5257, taking your total up to 68.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57Yeah, the most expensive property on the board, Mayfair.
0:25:57 > 0:25:58£400 that would cost you.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01There we are, thank you very much, Richard. So, Janet.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04You need to score 57 or less.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09- Whitechapel Road. - Whitechapel Road, says Janet.
0:26:09 > 0:26:10Whitechapel Road.
0:26:10 > 0:26:11Here is your red line.
0:26:11 > 0:26:15You have to get below that red line to be in the head-to-head.
0:26:15 > 0:26:16Let's see if you've done it.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18Whitechapel Road, how many people said it?
0:26:20 > 0:26:22It's right.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25You've done it, look at that!
0:26:25 > 0:26:28Ooh, by a margin, Whitechapel Road, 17.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Your total is 27.
0:26:32 > 0:26:33Very well done.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35Yeah, the joint-cheapest property on the board.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38We're now going to be 0% Martin.
0:26:38 > 0:26:39Can't believe it.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42There's no pointless answers at all, I'll give you the lowest-scorers.
0:26:42 > 0:26:46You would have got four points for Northumberland Avenue,
0:26:46 > 0:26:48eight points for Euston Road and nine points for Whitehall.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50They were your best answers.
0:26:50 > 0:26:54You would've got 13 for The Strand, 14 for Leicester Square,
0:26:54 > 0:26:5617 for King's Cross Station,
0:26:56 > 0:27:0021 points for Marylebone Station and Trafalgar Square, 23 for Piccadilly.
0:27:00 > 0:27:01Let's take a look at the top three.
0:27:01 > 0:27:0532 points for Pall Mall, 44 points for Old Kent Road,
0:27:05 > 0:27:08and Mayfair actually the biggest scorer of all, Bill, I'm afraid.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10There we are. Thank you, Richard.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12So, at the end of our second round,
0:27:12 > 0:27:15I'm sorry to say, the pair we have to send home, Martin and Bill.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18I was secretly hoping you were going to be finalists, because, you know,
0:27:18 > 0:27:20you're the quizzers from last time.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22You know, we sent you home a bit early last time.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25- It was Round Two then, I'm afraid it's Round Two again.- Yeah.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Bill and Martin, it's been wonderful having you on the show.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Thank you so much for playing. Great contestants.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36But, for Chris and James, Janet and Julie,
0:27:36 > 0:27:38it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46Many congratulations, Janet and Julie, Chris and James.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48You are now one step closer to the final
0:27:48 > 0:27:50and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:27:50 > 0:27:52which currently stands at £2,000.
0:27:55 > 0:27:56Well, here we are,
0:27:56 > 0:27:59we've reached that lovely, false summit of the head-to-head,
0:27:59 > 0:28:00where you can start playing as teams.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02You can chat before you give your answers.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05First pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07Well, this is nice, it's a family affair, isn't it?
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Very nice indeed.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12Father-and-son team versus sisters.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14Best of luck to you, Chris and James, and best of luck to you,
0:28:14 > 0:28:17Janet and Julie. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24Here comes your first question,
0:28:24 > 0:28:27and the first question today is about...
0:28:29 > 0:28:32- Statues Of Contemporary Figures, Richard.- We're going to show you
0:28:32 > 0:28:33five statues now of contemporary figures.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36- Can you identify them, please? - OK, thank you very much indeed.
0:28:36 > 0:28:39Now, then. Here they come. We have five statues.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06There we are.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08Five statues there.
0:29:08 > 0:29:12Now, Janet and Julie, you are our low-scorers, our golden couple,
0:29:12 > 0:29:13so you will go first.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16(Do you think we should play safe?)
0:29:16 > 0:29:17(I think we should play safe.)
0:29:17 > 0:29:20(Let's go for Bobby Moore, then.)
0:29:20 > 0:29:23OK. We're going to go for A, Bobby Moore.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26A, Bobby Moore, say Janet and Julie. A, Bobby Moore.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Now, Chris and James, do you want to talk us through the rest of them?
0:29:29 > 0:29:32Yeah. C is Charlie Chaplin.
0:29:32 > 0:29:36D looks ever so much like Cary Grant.
0:29:36 > 0:29:37E looks like Amy Whitehouse.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41And B is the fellow who used to blow up chimneys,
0:29:41 > 0:29:45and I cannot for the life of me remember his name at the moment.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47So, which one do you reckon?
0:29:47 > 0:29:50I didn't recognise C, but I knew E.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Maybe go E?
0:29:52 > 0:29:56- We'll go for D.- OK, go for it. - D, I'm going to go Cary Grant.
0:29:56 > 0:30:00D, Cary Grant. So we have Bobby Moore and we have Cary Grant.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03Janet and Julie said Bobby Moore for A.
0:30:03 > 0:30:04Let's see if that's right.
0:30:06 > 0:30:08It is, of course, Bobby Moore.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12And that goes down to 44.
0:30:12 > 0:30:1444, Bobby Moore.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19Now, Chris and James have gone out on a real limb here.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22You think that D looks like Cary Grant.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25Is it, could it possibly be Cary Grant?
0:30:27 > 0:30:30It is Cary Grant!
0:30:30 > 0:30:33It absolutely is - and guess what, it beats Bobby Moore.
0:30:35 > 0:30:36Oh!
0:30:40 > 0:30:44Cary Grant was 8, Bobby Moore was more. 44.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47Chris and James, after one question, you're up 1-0.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49Nicely done, Chris. E was, of course, Amy Winehouse.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52It's the biggest scorer there. It's in Camden Market, that statue.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54Would've scored 57 points.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56C, of course, is Charlie Chaplin.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58That's near Leicester Square,
0:30:58 > 0:31:00used to be in Leicester Square. 26 points for that.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03And you're absolutely right, that's the steeplejack,
0:31:03 > 0:31:04Fred Dibnah, yeah.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06But scored more than Cary Grant.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09- Do you know what? - Scored nine points.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11I thought that was David Hockney.
0:31:11 > 0:31:13I thought it was David Hockney as well.
0:31:13 > 0:31:14- There you go.- There you go.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17Well...well done, Chris and James.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20Now, then, Janet and Julie, this second question,
0:31:20 > 0:31:22you have to win this one to stay in the game,
0:31:22 > 0:31:23but they get to answer it first.
0:31:23 > 0:31:24So, very best of luck.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27Our second question this afternoon concerns...
0:31:29 > 0:31:30Animated mice, Richard.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32We're going to show you the names now
0:31:32 > 0:31:34of five animated mice, but in anagram form.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37Can you unscramble them and give us the most obscure answer?
0:31:37 > 0:31:40Thank you very much, so let's reveal our five anagrams of mice -
0:31:40 > 0:31:42and here they are.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44We have got...
0:31:52 > 0:31:54I'll read those again.
0:32:01 > 0:32:03Chris and James will go first.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16We can only work out two at the moment,
0:32:16 > 0:32:19and I think we'll have to go for Fievel, the second one.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22Fievel. Fievel, say Chris and James.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25Fievel. Now, Janet and Julie,
0:32:25 > 0:32:27do you want to talk us through the rest of the board?
0:32:27 > 0:32:28Well, the top one's Mickey Mouse,
0:32:28 > 0:32:30and we can only work out the bottom one,
0:32:30 > 0:32:32and we'll go for that one, which is Danger Mouse.
0:32:32 > 0:32:36Danger Mouse. OK, so we have Fievel and we have Danger Mouse.
0:32:36 > 0:32:37Chris and James went Fievel.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39Let's see if that's right,
0:32:39 > 0:32:42let's see how many of our 100 people went for Fievel.
0:32:50 > 0:32:52Oh, that's a good one. Look at that.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54Very well done indeed. 10 for Fievel.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01Janet and Julie, meanwhile, have gone Angered Sumo,
0:33:01 > 0:33:02that is Danger Mouse.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10It is Danger Mouse.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Down that goes to 39. Well...
0:33:17 > 0:33:19..bad luck, Janet and Julie.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21Sometimes it can work in your favour going second
0:33:21 > 0:33:22when it's an anagram round...
0:33:22 > 0:33:25- When you don't know the answers. - ..but I'm afraid, I know...
0:33:25 > 0:33:27But, very well done, Chris and James.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30After only two questions, you are straight through to the final, 2-0.
0:33:30 > 0:33:31Very well done.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33Yeah, Fievel from An American Tail,
0:33:33 > 0:33:36and An American Tail - Fievel Goes West.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39And, of course, FIVE ALL adds up to ten, so that's nice.
0:33:39 > 0:33:42- LAUGHTER Oh, yeah.- How about that?
0:33:42 > 0:33:44I hope you got - as the voice of Danger Mouse -
0:33:44 > 0:33:45I hope you got Danger Mouse.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48I did get Danger Mouse. I did. I didn't... I'm still struggling,
0:33:48 > 0:33:51I haven't even bothered trying to unpick Simian Cabs
0:33:51 > 0:33:52and Zen Posey Glades.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54Oh, really? So, Meek Music Yo,
0:33:54 > 0:33:57I think we already heard, is Mickey Mouse.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59So that is 63 points.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01So Zen Posey Glades, you're having trouble.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04- Yeah.- The Z should help you a little bit.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06I've got it, I've got it, I've got it. Speedy Gonzales.
0:34:06 > 0:34:10- Speedy Gonzales!- There we are. There we are.- Well done.
0:34:10 > 0:34:1312 points. Now, this last one. You know what?
0:34:13 > 0:34:14If you got this, it's very impressive,
0:34:14 > 0:34:16because it's a tough anagram
0:34:16 > 0:34:18and it's not a particularly well-known animated mouse.
0:34:18 > 0:34:20It's no Danger Mouse, shall we say.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22- Right.- But if you know The Rescuers at all,
0:34:22 > 0:34:23it is...
0:34:23 > 0:34:26Miss Bianca, and that's a pointless answer,
0:34:26 > 0:34:28so very, very well done if you said that.
0:34:28 > 0:34:29Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round -
0:34:32 > 0:34:34I can't really bear this - our lovely sisters.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36You've been in the head-to-head twice
0:34:36 > 0:34:37without anything to show for it.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40- I feel we've served you ill.- Oh! - I'm sorry.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43I'm just sorry, but it's been wonderful having you on.
0:34:43 > 0:34:44Thank you so much for playing.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47Janet and Julie, very strong contestants indeed.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52But, for Chris and James, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59Well, congratulations, Chris, congratulations, James.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02You have fought off all the competition
0:35:02 > 0:35:05and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:05 > 0:35:06Yes!
0:35:11 > 0:35:13You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:13 > 0:35:16and, at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £2,000.
0:35:16 > 0:35:17Very nice.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24I mean, as career advice, I'd say going on Pointless
0:35:24 > 0:35:26- would probably be quite a good...- Yes.
0:35:26 > 0:35:29I shall definitely be suggesting it to all of my students.
0:35:29 > 0:35:30- A good move.- Absolutely.- I mean,
0:35:30 > 0:35:32provided they do as well as you've done.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34- Yeah.- That's the thing, I suppose.
0:35:34 > 0:35:35- Yeah.- But well done, you.
0:35:35 > 0:35:39I mean, first appearance on the show, right through to the final,
0:35:39 > 0:35:402-0 in the head-to-head -
0:35:40 > 0:35:43I mean, there's no arguing with a trajectory like that.
0:35:43 > 0:35:46And we've got quite a nice jackpot gathering there
0:35:46 > 0:35:47for you to have a go at.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49Now, as always, you know what happens in this round -
0:35:49 > 0:35:52we put our four things up on the board and they're quite random,
0:35:52 > 0:35:54and quite specific,
0:35:54 > 0:35:57but if they happen to land within your areas of expertise,
0:35:57 > 0:36:00then quids in. So, best of luck.
0:36:00 > 0:36:02Today's foursome looks like this...
0:36:12 > 0:36:15- CHRIS EXHALES - Latin American Singers is out.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17No. We can't do that. Erm...
0:36:17 > 0:36:20- The Letter W could be absolutely... - Could be anything.- ..anything.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23- How are you doing on cricket? - Cricket, OK.
0:36:23 > 0:36:24It's Letter W or Cricket.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27Oh, let's go for Cricket In 2015.
0:36:27 > 0:36:28Cricket In 2015.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30- Richard.- OK, very best of luck, gents,
0:36:30 > 0:36:33here are your three questions on Cricket In 2015.
0:36:33 > 0:36:35We're looking for any of the 14 teams
0:36:35 > 0:36:38who played at the ICC World Cup.
0:36:38 > 0:36:42We are looking for any player from the 2015 Ashes series -
0:36:42 > 0:36:45that's anyone named in any of the starting 11
0:36:45 > 0:36:47in the men's Ashes series in 2015.
0:36:47 > 0:36:51Or we're looking for any player from the 2015 women's Ashes series -
0:36:51 > 0:36:54again any of the starting 11s in any of those Ashes matches.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56So, any team at the World Cup,
0:36:56 > 0:36:59or any player in the 2015 Ashes series for men or women.
0:36:59 > 0:37:02- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much. Now, as always,
0:37:02 > 0:37:04you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers,
0:37:04 > 0:37:06and all you need to win that jackpot
0:37:06 > 0:37:10is for just one of those answers to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:37:10 > 0:37:13- Yeah.- Yeah.- Good. Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:15 > 0:37:22OK, ICC World Cup, we could have Bermuda, Bangladesh, er...
0:37:22 > 0:37:23Scotland, Ireland.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25Countries aren't going to be as...
0:37:25 > 0:37:26There's not so many of them,
0:37:26 > 0:37:29- we need to look at the players from the 2015 Ashes.- OK.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31- 2015 Ashes...- Probably the men's I'd know better, so,
0:37:31 > 0:37:34you've got Alex Hales, was he there?
0:37:34 > 0:37:36- No. Erm...- Ginger chap.
0:37:36 > 0:37:38- Er... Fielder.- Er...
0:37:38 > 0:37:40- Stokes?- That's a good one.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43Erm...
0:37:43 > 0:37:45Australians...
0:37:45 > 0:37:47Australians...
0:37:47 > 0:37:48Er... Complete blank.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50- Erm...- Yeah.
0:37:50 > 0:37:53- Oh, gosh.- Are you sure on Bermuda?
0:37:53 > 0:37:55Cos that was about 2010, wasn't it?
0:37:55 > 0:37:56Holland...
0:37:56 > 0:37:58- Holland... - And we know about Zimbabwe?
0:37:58 > 0:38:01- Zimbabwe's a good one.- Erm...
0:38:01 > 0:38:04- Players...- Let me think of players. Australians...
0:38:04 > 0:38:08- Ten seconds left.- ..in the 2015 Ashes series, it's going to be...
0:38:08 > 0:38:12- I think Stokes is a good one. - OK. Ben Stokes?
0:38:12 > 0:38:14- Too obvious.- Yeah.
0:38:15 > 0:38:19OK. That is your time up. I now need your three answers.
0:38:19 > 0:38:20What are you going to give me?
0:38:20 > 0:38:24Players from the 2015 Ashes series.
0:38:24 > 0:38:25- Steve Marsh?- Yeah.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27- Steve Marsh.- Steve Marsh.
0:38:27 > 0:38:31And then teams from the 2015 ICC World Cup.
0:38:31 > 0:38:34- World Cup.- Er...Zimbabwe?
0:38:34 > 0:38:37- Zimbabwe.- Zimbabwe.- And...
0:38:37 > 0:38:38Bermuda? Bermuda.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41And Bermuda. Zimbabwe and Bermuda, and Steve Marsh.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43- Yeah.- Of those three answers,
0:38:43 > 0:38:45which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:45 > 0:38:49- Zimbabwe?- Zimbabwe we'll put last. Least likely to be pointless?
0:38:49 > 0:38:53- Bermuda.- Bermuda.- Bermuda. Steve Marsh we bung in the middle.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55OK. Well, let's put those answers up on the board in that order then.
0:38:55 > 0:38:59And here they are. We've got...
0:39:02 > 0:39:03Well, very best of luck.
0:39:03 > 0:39:07Now, then. Nice jackpot of 2,000 - that's a grand apiece.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09What would you do with that? Chris, you first.
0:39:09 > 0:39:13Er, well, I've got an allotment that desperately needs a greenhouse.
0:39:13 > 0:39:15- Oh, just think of the lovely things you could grow.- Yeah.
0:39:15 > 0:39:17You could grow peaches.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19- Ooh!- Ooh!
0:39:19 > 0:39:21Peaches. Oh! Tomatoes, obviously.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25- Yeah.- Mm! Oh, James, we're all winners there, aren't we?
0:39:25 > 0:39:27James, what would you do with your grand?
0:39:27 > 0:39:31Erm...I still owe him money for a car, so...
0:39:31 > 0:39:33- give it straight back to him! - More peaches(!)
0:39:33 > 0:39:34On to the bigger greenhouse!
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Oh...excellent!
0:39:36 > 0:39:37Well, very best of luck.
0:39:37 > 0:39:39Three answers there,
0:39:39 > 0:39:42let's hope one of those is pointless and wins that jackpot for you.
0:39:42 > 0:39:43Your first answer was Bermuda.
0:39:43 > 0:39:45In this case we were looking for
0:39:45 > 0:39:48countries that participated in the ICC World Cup.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50Let's find out. Has to be pointless for you to win the jackpot.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54So, for £2,000, let's see how many people said Bermuda.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59No! Bad luck.
0:39:59 > 0:40:03You weren't sure about Bermuda and you put it first for that reason.
0:40:03 > 0:40:05So there we are, no great surprises there.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08Which means only two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10Your second answer was Steve Marsh.
0:40:10 > 0:40:12In this case, we were looking for
0:40:12 > 0:40:14any player from the 2015 Ashes series.
0:40:14 > 0:40:17Has to be right, which we're not necessarily sure about,
0:40:17 > 0:40:19then it has to be pointless.
0:40:19 > 0:40:20If it's both of those things, however,
0:40:20 > 0:40:22you leave here immediately with £2,000.
0:40:22 > 0:40:25Let's see how many of our 100 people said Steve Marsh.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32- Ooh!- It's going well(!)- Oh, dear!
0:40:32 > 0:40:34OK, so two incorrect answers.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36But they were the two you were quite dodgy about.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38- Pretty unsure about. - So, you know...- Yeah.
0:40:38 > 0:40:40We now move on to firmer ground, I would say, here,
0:40:40 > 0:40:42with your third and final answer, which was Zimbabwe.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44Again, we were looking for countries
0:40:44 > 0:40:47which were part of the ICC Cricket World Cup in 2015.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50Has to be right - you have a hunch it IS right -
0:40:50 > 0:40:52then it has to be pointless.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55Both of those things will win you £2,000.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58How many of our 100 people said Zimbabwe? Is it pointless?
0:41:01 > 0:41:03It's right.
0:41:03 > 0:41:06This is good news. Your first answer, Bermuda, was incorrect,
0:41:06 > 0:41:08your second answer, Steve Marsh, was incorrect,
0:41:08 > 0:41:10but your third answer, Zimbabwe, absolutely on the money.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12Down we go into single figures,
0:41:12 > 0:41:14still going down, still going down...
0:41:14 > 0:41:17Peaches! There we are!
0:41:17 > 0:41:18Very well done.
0:41:20 > 0:41:23Fantastic. Oh!
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Thank you!
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Absolutely wonderful!
0:41:27 > 0:41:31Congratulations, Chris and James!
0:41:31 > 0:41:33Zimbabwe was a pointless answer,
0:41:33 > 0:41:36which means you leave here with that jackpot of £2,000.
0:41:36 > 0:41:38Absolutely superb.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44Well, that's nice, isn't it?
0:41:44 > 0:41:47How lovely. And also a perfect father-and-son relationship,
0:41:47 > 0:41:49because you both gave one answer that the other one said,
0:41:49 > 0:41:51"No, that's wrong." And then teamed up to get one
0:41:51 > 0:41:53that was a pointless answer,
0:41:53 > 0:41:56so that's father-son relationships the country over.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58Steve Marsh isn't right, unfortunately.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00Steve Smith would have scored you one.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04Shaun Marsh, he was a pointless answer, there's also Mitchell Marsh, who was a pointless answer as well.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Loads of pointless answers in that category.
0:42:06 > 0:42:10For the ICC World Cup, there's only three pointless answers.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12They were...
0:42:14 > 0:42:17And now loads and loads of pointless answers for the Ashes series.
0:42:17 > 0:42:19Let's take a look at a few of them...
0:42:19 > 0:42:24The Aussie David Warner, the English batsman Gary Ballance.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27Mitchell Starc, Steven Finn, the fast bowler, a pointless answer.
0:42:27 > 0:42:28Adam Lyth a pointless answer.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30Brad Haddin, Chris Rogers, Josh Hazlewood.
0:42:30 > 0:42:33Mark Wood, Michael Clarke, Mitchell Johnson.
0:42:33 > 0:42:36Nathan Lyon, Peter Nevill, Peter Siddle, Shane Watson -
0:42:36 > 0:42:39all of those are pointless answers. So, well done if you got any
0:42:39 > 0:42:41of those. Let's move on to the women's Ashes...
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Danielle Hazell a pointless answer.
0:42:44 > 0:42:46The Player of the Series, Ellyse Perry, was a pointless answer.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49Lydia Greenway scored the most runs for England in that series,
0:42:49 > 0:42:52also a pointless answer. Megan Schutt. In fact, everybody apart from
0:42:52 > 0:42:55Charlotte Edwards, Sarah Coyte and Katherine Brunt - every other player
0:42:55 > 0:42:58was a pointless answer, so well done if you got one of those.
0:42:58 > 0:43:01But terrific work in the studio. Zimbabwe's won you the £2,000.
0:43:01 > 0:43:02Thanks very much, Richard.
0:43:02 > 0:43:05Well, thanks once again to our winning players Chris and James,
0:43:05 > 0:43:07who go away with today's jackpot of £2,000.
0:43:07 > 0:43:09Very well done.
0:43:11 > 0:43:13Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to
0:43:13 > 0:43:16the test on Pointless. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...
0:43:16 > 0:43:19- Goodbye.- And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
