0:00:16 > 0:00:19APPLAUSE

0:00:21 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong

0:00:23 > 0:00:24and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:24 > 0:00:26the show where the more obscure your knowledge,

0:00:26 > 0:00:28the better your chances of winning.

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

0:00:30 > 0:00:32APPLAUSE

0:00:33 > 0:00:34And couple number one.

0:00:34 > 0:00:35Hello, my name's Ken.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38This is my very Pointless friend Lucy, and together,

0:00:38 > 0:00:41we're both managers at Britain's favourite department store chain.

0:00:41 > 0:00:43- Couple number two. - Hi, my name's Claire

0:00:43 > 0:00:45and this is my sister, Louise.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48I come from Cornwall and Louise comes from Wiltshire.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50- Couple number three.- Hi, my name's Poppy, I'm from Buckinghamshire.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53This is my friend Rory and he's from Guernsey.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55And finally, couple number four.

0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Liya. This is my fiance, Anthony, and we're from Sydney.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01And these are today's contestants.

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

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Thanks very much, all of you. A very warm welcome to Pointless.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08We'll get to chat to each of you throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13The grumpy landlord of Highbrow Towers.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19- Hiya. Hi, everybody. - APPLAUSE

0:01:19 > 0:01:21- Good afternoon to you. - And to you.

0:01:21 > 0:01:25Now, two returning pairs. Poppy and Rory got knocked out in Round Two,

0:01:25 > 0:01:27and Ken and Lucy were knocked out in Round One.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30No-one here has been as far as the head-to-head.

0:01:30 > 0:01:31So a very open field.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34So today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44So, remember this, the pair with the highest score

0:01:44 > 0:01:47at the end of each round will be eliminated.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49That's it. Best of luck to all four pairs.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52Our first category today is...

0:01:54 > 0:01:56Can you all decide in your pairs

0:01:56 > 0:01:58who's going first, who's going second?

0:01:58 > 0:02:01And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06OK, and the question concerns...

0:02:10 > 0:02:12Italian body parts.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15- What of that?- More specifically, Italian words for body parts,

0:02:15 > 0:02:18rather than actually Italian body parts.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21On each board, we're going to show you seven terms the Italians use

0:02:21 > 0:02:22for parts of the body.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24We need you to come up with the English translations, please.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27There'll be 14 in all to have a go at at home, so very best of luck.

0:02:27 > 0:02:31Thanks very much indeed, Richard. So, let's reveal our first board

0:02:31 > 0:02:33of seven body parts in Italian, and here they are.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44I'll read those again.

0:02:51 > 0:02:55There we are. Now, Ken, welcome back to Pointless.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58- Remind us what you do.- I'm a manager at a department store chain.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Not just any department store chain. - The best.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02- The best... The most popular, you said.- Yes.

0:03:02 > 0:03:08Wow. That is great. And remind us what you do when not at store.

0:03:08 > 0:03:12I like travelling. I do a lot of travelling and stuff like that. Do some gardening as well.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15What sort of gardener are you? Do you do a kitchen garden?

0:03:15 > 0:03:18Oh gosh, no, no, nothing... Just plants and stuff like that.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21- A little bit of a rockery and so on. - That's good. Some heaths?

0:03:21 > 0:03:23- Yes, Scottish heaths. - Scottish heaths.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27Quite right. OK, now, Ken, it's like travelling, isn't it?

0:03:27 > 0:03:29Without setting foot in Italy.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33OK, this is a nightmare round.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36I'm going to go absolutely crazy

0:03:36 > 0:03:37and go for il ginocchio

0:03:37 > 0:03:40and pray that I'm not mad

0:03:40 > 0:03:42and it means nose.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45- Il ginocchio.- Il ginocchio.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48I wonder why you are thinking of that?

0:03:48 > 0:03:51- I'm praying.- Well, let's see if Ken's prayers are answered.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Ginocchio. Is it nose?

0:03:57 > 0:03:59Oh, Ken, I'm sorry.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.

0:04:01 > 0:04:02I'm afraid it's not nose.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04That scores you 100 points.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07Sorry, Ken. Might not be the last 100 of the entire round,

0:04:07 > 0:04:09but I'll give all the correct answers at the end of the pass.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11Thanks very much, Richard.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14Now, Claire. A warm welcome here from Cornwall.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17- Thank you, yes. - Whereabouts in Cornwall are you?

0:04:17 > 0:04:20- Sort of between Falmouth and Redruth.- Very nice indeed.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23- What do you do down there, Claire? - I work for a charity

0:04:23 > 0:04:25for adults with learning disabilities.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29Very good indeed. What do you like getting up to apart from that?

0:04:29 > 0:04:30Obviously, living in Cornwall,

0:04:30 > 0:04:32swimming in the sea, a bit of surfing,

0:04:32 > 0:04:33a bit of bodyboarding.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35Generally wearing flip-flops all the time.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37What time of year does that generally start?

0:04:37 > 0:04:40- All year.- All year? - Yeah.- Do you have a wetsuit?

0:04:40 > 0:04:42- Yeah, we have winter and summer - wetsuits. Very good.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44What would you like to go for, Claire?

0:04:44 > 0:04:47I can't pronounce it, but I'm going to go for il...

0:04:47 > 0:04:49Is it piede?

0:04:49 > 0:04:51- I think that might be foot, or feet. - Il piede.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53You're going to say foot?

0:04:53 > 0:04:55Let's see if il piede is a foot.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Let's see how many of our 100 people said it if it is.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01It is a foot.

0:05:03 > 0:05:0564 of our 100 people knew that.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07APPLAUSE

0:05:08 > 0:05:12Yeah, shoe sizes that we have now date back to Anglo-Saxon times

0:05:12 > 0:05:14and they were essentially measured in barleycorns.

0:05:14 > 0:05:15If you go up a shoe size,

0:05:15 > 0:05:17you've gone up the width of one barleycorn.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20- There we are. Now, Rory.- Yeah.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22Rory, Rory. Welcome back.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24- Remind us what you do. - I'm a student at Nottingham.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26You're at Nottingham in your second year?

0:05:26 > 0:05:28- Second year.- Studying history.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30- That's right.- There we are.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Aside from that, we discovered you play quite a few sports.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35- Yeah.- Remind us what you play.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37- I play hockey. - You're on the fifth team.

0:05:37 > 0:05:41- Yeah.- The illustrious fifth team. - Yeah.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43- But as you said, the social... - The social team.- The social team.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45Are you in charge of the fifth team?

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Starting next season, I am.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49- Ah! Captain or social secretary? - Captain.

0:05:49 > 0:05:50I was voted in a few weeks ago.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52That's good. Was that on your hockey skills

0:05:52 > 0:05:54or entirely on your social skills?

0:05:54 > 0:05:55Mainly on my social skills,

0:05:55 > 0:05:57my hockey skills aren't up to scratch.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00That's a great accolade. Good for you.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03Now, Rory, what would you like to go for?

0:06:03 > 0:06:05There's only one that I think I know,

0:06:05 > 0:06:07so I'm going to have to go for il dente,

0:06:07 > 0:06:09which I think is teeth.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Surely. Surely. Il dente. Let's see if that is teeth,

0:06:12 > 0:06:15let's see how many of our 100 people said teeth.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19It's right.

0:06:19 > 0:06:20Oh, hee-hee!

0:06:20 > 0:06:2189 for teeth.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23APPLAUSE

0:06:23 > 0:06:24Shouldn't be too surprised, I guess.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27Il dente, you'd be surprised if it weren't teeth.

0:06:27 > 0:06:28Yes, it's quite a tough round, this.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30There's the obvious ones, which are big scorers,

0:06:30 > 0:06:31and then some tough ones.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34The average person spends 38-and-a-half days of their lifetime

0:06:34 > 0:06:36brushing their teeth.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38OK, thank you very much indeed.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40Now, then. Anthony, welcome to the show.

0:06:40 > 0:06:44- Now, what about this, from Sydney? - Yes.- I didn't know we did...

0:06:44 > 0:06:47I suggested we did this exchange programme some years ago

0:06:47 > 0:06:49and finally it bears fruit.

0:06:49 > 0:06:50What brings you here?

0:06:50 > 0:06:52We moved over to London about a year ago

0:06:52 > 0:06:55and we're just working in London and travelling around Europe.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57What do you do over here?

0:06:57 > 0:06:59I'm working as a software engineer.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02I see. Are you stationed with work here?

0:07:02 > 0:07:05- Yeah. I transferred with my company over from Sydney.- I see.

0:07:05 > 0:07:06Anthony, what would you like to go for?

0:07:06 > 0:07:09This board is all yours - I don't know how good your Italian is,

0:07:09 > 0:07:11but if you fancy talking us through it, it would be great.

0:07:11 > 0:07:12Italian is not good.

0:07:12 > 0:07:15I think I did a year of it in Year 5 at primary school.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17That's a year more than I think everyone else

0:07:17 > 0:07:19in this studio has done.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22I'm going to go with la mano.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26And it sounds like a manicure, so I'm going to go for hand.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28Hand, says Anthony, for la mano.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30La mano. Let's if that's right,

0:07:30 > 0:07:32let's see how many of our 100 people got hand.

0:07:35 > 0:07:36It is hand.

0:07:37 > 0:07:41Look at that, it's the best score of the round. Hand. Look at that!

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Big hands for you. 38.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47That's a very good answer, isn't it?

0:07:47 > 0:07:50In Middle English, your first finger was known as the toucher,

0:07:50 > 0:07:55and in German, the longest finger is known as the doctor's finger.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57LAUGHTER

0:07:57 > 0:08:00Don't go to a German doctor is all I'd say.

0:08:00 > 0:08:01ALEXANDER LAUGHS

0:08:01 > 0:08:03- Yeah.- Shall we go through this board?

0:08:03 > 0:08:06It's tough, this board, isn't it? Il muscolo.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08I'm thinking the muscle.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11- It is.- Surely.- Muscle, yeah. A scary one to go for, though.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14- 70 points for that. La gamba? - La, la gamba?

0:08:14 > 0:08:16- I want to say leg.- Yeah. - Ham, leg.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18Like jambe... Like the French.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21- 15. Il ginocchio.- Ginocchio.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23It's not the nose. This is a tough one.

0:08:23 > 0:08:24Genuflect - knee.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26It is the knee, yeah.

0:08:26 > 0:08:27And l'ombelico.

0:08:27 > 0:08:32- It's got to be your tummy button. - It is. Umbilical.

0:08:32 > 0:08:33Navel. 22 points for that.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35So knee is actually the best answer on that board.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37- Well done if you got that. - Thank you very much.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40Halfway through the round, let's look at those scores. 38 - well done, Anthony.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43The best score of that pass by a margin.

0:08:43 > 0:08:44Anthony and Liya are looking

0:08:44 > 0:08:46pretty strong contenders for Round Two at this point.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Then up to 64, Claire and Louise. 89, Rory and Poppy.

0:08:49 > 0:08:53Ken and Lucy... It was Round One last time.

0:08:53 > 0:08:54- Don't rub it in.- I won't stand

0:08:54 > 0:08:56for it being Round One this time, so, Lucy,

0:08:56 > 0:08:58we need a nice low-scoring answer - how's your Italian, Lucy?

0:08:58 > 0:09:00- Not great.- OK.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04- Good.- Better than mine.- You have a little bit of time to think of a good low-scoring answer.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Best of luck. We're going to come back down the line.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:09:11 > 0:09:15So, let's put another seven Italian body parts on the board,

0:09:15 > 0:09:17and here they are.

0:09:26 > 0:09:27I'll read those again.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37There we are. Now, Liya, welcome to Pointless.

0:09:37 > 0:09:40- Also from Sydney.- Yes.- So, did you get work here as well or...?

0:09:40 > 0:09:44Yes, very luckily, we both managed to swing that.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Fantastic. Very good. And what are you doing over here?

0:09:47 > 0:09:50- I work in the treasury division for a bank.- Very good. Exciting.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52A nice job to land,

0:09:52 > 0:09:54just while you're here on placement, as it were.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57What else...? What else have you been up to while you've been here?

0:09:57 > 0:09:59- So, a lot of travelling.- Yeah.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02Trying to get a bit of sport in while we do that as well,

0:10:02 > 0:10:04so some cycling, skiing trips.

0:10:04 > 0:10:05Very good.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07How long are you going to be here, do you think?

0:10:07 > 0:10:10- A few years, at least. - A few years? Good stuff.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12Now, Liya, there you are.

0:10:12 > 0:10:1538. I mean, very simple for you. If you can score 61 or less,

0:10:15 > 0:10:17you're definitely into the next round.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19Have you studied Italian at all?

0:10:19 > 0:10:22No. I know a tiny bit of French,

0:10:22 > 0:10:26so I'm hoping they're sort of in a similar vein.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30I think I might play it safe

0:10:30 > 0:10:33and say il naso, nose.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Nose, says Liya. Il naso, nose.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Here is your red line. Get below that,

0:10:37 > 0:10:39you're definitely through to the next round.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41How many people said nose?

0:10:43 > 0:10:45It's right.

0:10:45 > 0:10:4682 for nose.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48I think you've probably done enough, though.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51120 is your total. APPLAUSE

0:10:51 > 0:10:53Yeah, here's something you can try.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55Your nose, when you breathe through your nose,

0:10:55 > 0:10:57it humidifies the air that you breathe, essentially.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00So if you just breathe through your mouth, your mouth goes very dry.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03Try that. If you just breathe through your mouth for a little bit,

0:11:03 > 0:11:05not through your nose, and your mouth will go...

0:11:05 > 0:11:08You don't have to do it. It's not mandatory.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10But it's...it's quite a fun thing to do.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13Don't you do it, because you're presenting the show.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16- I'm going to do it, though. - Hm, yeah.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20There we are. Well, while we're leaving Richard doing that...

0:11:20 > 0:11:23LAUGHTER ..we're going to do the show. Poppy.

0:11:23 > 0:11:24- Hello.- Welcome back.

0:11:24 > 0:11:29- Thank you.- Also reading history in your second year at Nottingham.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31- Where are you from originally? - I'm from Buckinghamshire,

0:11:31 > 0:11:34so just south of Milton Keynes. Just outside of London.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37- Did you know Nottingham at all before you went up there? - Not really.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39All I knew was Robin Hood, really. So...

0:11:39 > 0:11:41It's pretty much all most people know about Nottingham.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43- It's lovely, Nottingham. - Yeah, really nice.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46Very fond of Nottingham. And when you're not studying your history,

0:11:46 > 0:11:48what other things do you like getting up to?

0:11:48 > 0:11:50On a Saturday, I teach 5 to 7-year-olds drama

0:11:50 > 0:11:51at a local theatre.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53That's really good. How long have you done that for?

0:11:53 > 0:11:55- Since September. So...- Brilliant.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Do you work towards a production that you then put on, or is it...?

0:11:58 > 0:12:00At the end of every term, we sort of do a theme.

0:12:00 > 0:12:01So, at the moment, we're doing superheroes.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04After a couple of weeks, the mummies and daddies come in

0:12:04 > 0:12:06and we show everyone - so, no, it's really nice.

0:12:06 > 0:12:07Good for you. That's excellent.

0:12:07 > 0:12:11Now, there you are on 89. If you can score 30 or less...

0:12:11 > 0:12:12Round Two awaits.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Yeah. There's one I think is pretty obvious,

0:12:15 > 0:12:16I think everyone knows it,

0:12:16 > 0:12:20but I think it's probably ridiculously high.

0:12:20 > 0:12:21So, I think I'm going to take a risk.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23I think it's one of two things.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25I'm going to go with la lingua

0:12:25 > 0:12:26and the tongue.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29Lingua, tongue. Lingua, tongue. Here comes your red line.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32Get below that with lingua being tongue

0:12:32 > 0:12:34and you're through to the next round.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Oh...

0:12:43 > 0:12:4445.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46I think that's probably good enough.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48APPLAUSE

0:12:48 > 0:12:49134 is your total.

0:12:49 > 0:12:53A good fact about the tongue is that mine is currently very dry.

0:12:53 > 0:12:54LAUGHTER

0:12:54 > 0:12:56Breathe through your naso.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Ahh. That's better.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00That's better. Thanks very much, Richard.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03Now, Louise, a warm welcome to you here.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05- And you're from Wiltshire?- Yes.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07And what do you get up to in Wiltshire?

0:13:07 > 0:13:11I'm a translator. I translate from Swedish to English.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13- For books and things like that, or...?- I don't do books, no.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16I tend to do quite boring stuff, actually.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18Financial reports and things like that.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20So, how come you're Swedish is so good?

0:13:20 > 0:13:23We lived out there for nine years...

0:13:23 > 0:13:26- Right.- ..and learned the language while we were there.

0:13:26 > 0:13:27My husband and I.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29How fantastic. Where did you live?

0:13:29 > 0:13:30We lived just north of Stockholm,

0:13:30 > 0:13:32in a place called Taby kyrkby.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34Excellent, now, Swedish... Is it a Romance language?

0:13:34 > 0:13:36- Not so much, Swedish.- No.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38I mean, you do get a bit of French in there sometimes.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41- It's not really going to help too much here.- Not really.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43But once a linguist, always a linguist, surely.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45So you should have no problem with any of this.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47What would you like to go for?

0:13:48 > 0:13:50It's a little bit of a risk,

0:13:50 > 0:13:53but I'm thinking l'occhio might be eyes.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56Surely. L'occhio, eyes, says Louise.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58Here's your red line. If you get below that,

0:13:58 > 0:13:59you're through to the next round.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01How many of our 100 people said eye?

0:14:05 > 0:14:07- It's right and you're through. Very well done.- Yes!

0:14:09 > 0:14:11Oh, that risk paid off.

0:14:11 > 0:14:12Look at that, 16. The best score

0:14:12 > 0:14:15of the round by some margin.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18- 80 is your total, well done. - Great answer, Louise.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20The average blink takes one-tenth of a second,

0:14:20 > 0:14:22but you can't blink ten times in a second.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25No. Yeah.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28The minute you start thinking about it, they slow down.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29Yeah, yeah, they do, yeah.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31Thank you, Richard. Now, Lucy,

0:14:31 > 0:14:33there's a very good chance you might be staying with us,

0:14:33 > 0:14:35which would be very nice indeed.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38Now, remind us what you do, Lucy.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40I'm a manager in a department store.

0:14:40 > 0:14:41The same store as Ken?

0:14:41 > 0:14:45No...well, we used to, but then I moved away and left him...

0:14:45 > 0:14:47But with the same... You're still partners of the same company.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50- Same company.- Of the same... - Same partnership.- Same partnership.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52I wonder which shop this could be(?)

0:14:52 > 0:14:55- So where are you now? - I'm in Manchester.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57Right. I see. And Ken, where are you?

0:14:57 > 0:14:58- I'm in York.- In York? Oh, I see.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Well, not too far away, but, yeah.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03Do you still get together? Conferences and things like that?

0:15:03 > 0:15:06No, this is the first time that we've been together since I left.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08- It's been brilliant. - It's been great.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10We stayed up till 2am chatting last night.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13OK, now, listen, you have to score 33 or less.

0:15:13 > 0:15:1633 or less. You're the last person to have this board,

0:15:16 > 0:15:17so you can talk us through it if you like.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20I really wish I could. I'd love to stand here and be like,

0:15:20 > 0:15:23"I've got an Italian degree," and things like that, but I don't.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25So I literally have no idea.

0:15:27 > 0:15:28I really want to say...

0:15:28 > 0:15:30You're all probably going to laugh.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33The third one from the bottom...

0:15:33 > 0:15:34- L'orecchio?- Yeah.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37I want to say it's ear, but that's a complete guess.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39You're going to say ear for l'orecchio?

0:15:39 > 0:15:41Yeah, but it's a guess. But there's no point in me going obvious.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44It sounds...it sounds good to me.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46Here is your red line. If you get below that with ear,

0:15:46 > 0:15:48you're into the next round.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50Let's see how many of our 100 people said ear for l'orecchio.

0:15:53 > 0:15:54- Oh, my God.- It's right.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00- And you've done it.- Yes! - Look at that. Down it goes. 18.

0:16:00 > 0:16:01Very well done indeed, Lucy.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04118 is your total. Round Two awaits.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07Brilliant. APPLAUSE

0:16:07 > 0:16:09That's...that's an exciting end to the round, I have to say.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12Yes, it's ear. There's a pasta, isn't there, that's ear-shaped?

0:16:12 > 0:16:14- Yes.- It's got a name like that.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17- Yes.- How are you on the rest of these?

0:16:17 > 0:16:18I'll tell you what, there's...

0:16:18 > 0:16:20There's one there that looks a bit racy.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23- I mean... Tell me about it. Let's leave that for now.- OK.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26- Lo stomaco.- Well, that's going to be your tummy, your stomach.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28It is your stomach, yeah. And that would have scored 93.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31- Any idea on la pelle?- La pelle.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33- La pelle.- I can't see...

0:16:33 > 0:16:35I'm not really sure there's a clue there in the word...

0:16:35 > 0:16:38- It's not coming.- Skin. - Right.- 16 points for that.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40Now, la testa...

0:16:40 > 0:16:42It actually...now, I happened to...

0:16:42 > 0:16:44- It means head.- It does indeed.

0:16:45 > 0:16:4810 points for that. La testa.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Looking at you, I can see that.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52ALEXANDER LAUGHS

0:16:52 > 0:16:55Thanks very much indeed. So, at the end of our first round,

0:16:55 > 0:16:57the pair who are heading home with their high score of 134,

0:16:57 > 0:16:59I'm afraid it's Poppy and Rory.

0:16:59 > 0:17:03Oh! You made it through to Round Two last time. I'm so sorry.

0:17:03 > 0:17:05Only Round One this time. It's been great having you on, though.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08- Thank you so much for playing. Poppy and Rory.- Thanks.

0:17:08 > 0:17:09APPLAUSE

0:17:11 > 0:17:14But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21And suddenly, we're down to three pairs.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Oh, and it gets... It gets smaller still.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25I'm warning you now. It'll be only two pairs

0:17:25 > 0:17:27when we get to the head-to-head round.

0:17:27 > 0:17:28Louise, hats off to you.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32L'occhio was the best answer of that - eye - in that round.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34So, very good. And phewee, Ken and Lucy...

0:17:34 > 0:17:38This is what Round Two looks like. Very well done. L'orecchio.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Very good. Now, our category for Round Two today is...

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Can you decide in your pairs who's going first,

0:17:46 > 0:17:48who's going second?

0:17:48 > 0:17:50Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55OK, and the question concerns...

0:17:58 > 0:18:01Words in Shakespeare plays - Richard.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04Yes, in a moment, Xander's going to show you four words,

0:18:04 > 0:18:06and we're looking for the title of any Shakespeare play

0:18:06 > 0:18:09that contains one of those words anywhere in its text.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12So either spoken by someone or in a stage direction.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14Anything like that. So any Shakespeare play

0:18:14 > 0:18:16that contains one of the following four words,

0:18:16 > 0:18:18and that's according to opensourceshakespeare.org.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21Thank you very much indeed. As Richard just mentioned,

0:18:21 > 0:18:22we'll put these words up on the board.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25They will remain on the board for the entire round.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27So, we won't be changing them halfway through.

0:18:27 > 0:18:28They stay up for the round.

0:18:28 > 0:18:32We just have to have any Shakespeare play from you that contains,

0:18:32 > 0:18:35somewhere in its text, one of these words.

0:18:35 > 0:18:36OK, here are the words.

0:18:45 > 0:18:46Ken?

0:18:48 > 0:18:51- The Tempest.- The Tempest, says Ken.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53The Tempest. Let's see if The Tempest

0:18:53 > 0:18:54contains one of these words.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56How many of our 100 people said it?

0:18:59 > 0:19:00It's right.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07Look at that, Ken. Down it goes. That's a wonderful score.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09Very well done. 8 for Ken.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12APPLAUSE

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Yeah, that's got emperor, fairy and witch in it.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17- The Tempest.- Wow. - That's going at some, isn't it?

0:19:17 > 0:19:20- Nearly the full set. - Yeah.- Impressive.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22- Claire? - Not my favourite round.

0:19:22 > 0:19:27I am going to go with an obvious one, but...Hamlet.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29Hamlet. Hamlet, says Claire.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32Let's see how many of our 100 people said Hamlet.

0:19:41 > 0:19:4232.

0:19:42 > 0:19:43APPLAUSE

0:19:43 > 0:19:4532.

0:19:45 > 0:19:46Now, if you were playing Shakespeare bingo,

0:19:46 > 0:19:49you just would have won a line, cos that's got all four of them in.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51- Oh! Look at that. - Emperor, fairy, ghost...

0:19:51 > 0:19:53He reuses plots, doesn't he?

0:19:53 > 0:19:56Yeah, he does. Oh, just, yeah. I was reading...

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Gyles Brandreth said he once thought about being an actor,

0:19:58 > 0:20:01and then went on... He played the Dane,

0:20:01 > 0:20:03but he got pelted with eggs.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05He said he went on as Hamlet, came off as Omelette.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07LAUGHTER

0:20:08 > 0:20:10- Liya?- Hi.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13Liya, what would you like to go for?

0:20:14 > 0:20:19I think I'm going to take a bit of a gamble and say

0:20:19 > 0:20:22- The Taming Of The Shrew. - The Taming of the Shrew, says Liya.

0:20:22 > 0:20:26Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Oh, no, Liya.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Oh, that is so unfair. I'm afraid

0:20:34 > 0:20:37none of these words appears in Taming Of The Shrew.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39That scores you 100 points.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Liya, I'm so sorry. It's a perfectly good guess.

0:20:41 > 0:20:42Who's in charge of the shrews?

0:20:42 > 0:20:46What have they got? Like a king rather than an emperor?

0:20:47 > 0:20:49The shrew army?

0:20:49 > 0:20:51- Yeah.- Yeah.- Shrew army.- Yeah.

0:20:51 > 0:20:52Shrew army!

0:20:52 > 0:20:54ALEXANDER LAUGHS

0:20:54 > 0:20:57Shrew army! Thanks very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00Let's take a look at those scores. 8, the best score of the pass, Ken.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02What about that? Very well done indeed.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04Ken and Lucy ruling the roost at this point.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06Then up to 32, where we find Claire and Louise.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09Then up to 100, where we find Liya and Anthony.

0:21:09 > 0:21:10So, Anthony...

0:21:10 > 0:21:13I liked Liya's approach. I applaud that.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16We need you to do something similar, but more correct.

0:21:16 > 0:21:17We're going to come back down the line now.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:21:22 > 0:21:25OK. So, remember, Anthony, we're looking for any Shakespeare plays

0:21:25 > 0:21:27that contains one of these words,

0:21:27 > 0:21:30one or more of these words, anywhere in its text.

0:21:30 > 0:21:32Well, Liya was supposed to be the strong one at literature,

0:21:32 > 0:21:35so I'm just going to take a complete gamble

0:21:35 > 0:21:38and go with my final year text,

0:21:38 > 0:21:41which was King Lear.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43I was going to say, the clue's right there, isn't it?

0:21:43 > 0:21:44King Lear.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46OK, no red line for you, as you're the highest scorers,

0:21:46 > 0:21:49but surely King Lear's got to get you some way down this column.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52Let's see how many of our 100 people said King Lear.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56It's right.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00Come on.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02Oh, it's good. It's very good.

0:22:02 > 0:22:045. Lowest score so far, Anthony.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06Very well done indeed. 105. APPLAUSE

0:22:06 > 0:22:09You could very easily have kept yourselves in the game there.

0:22:09 > 0:22:12It's a great answer. A fairy, a ghost and a witch...

0:22:12 > 0:22:14- Fabulous. - ..walked into a bar...

0:22:14 > 0:22:16LAUGHTER

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Thanks, Richard. Louise...

0:22:18 > 0:22:21You have a target now, which is 72.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23OK.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27The first thing that came to mind, I think I'm going to go with it,

0:22:27 > 0:22:29was Macbeth.

0:22:29 > 0:22:30Macbeth. OK.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33Macbeth. Here is your red line.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36You have to get below that to stay in the game.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39Let's see how many of our 100 people said Macbeth.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43It's right.

0:22:43 > 0:22:44Oh, and you get below the red line.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46I'd say that was lucky. 59.

0:22:46 > 0:22:47APPLAUSE

0:22:49 > 0:22:5159, your score, taking your total up to 91.

0:22:51 > 0:22:52Yeah, ghosts, witches and fairies.

0:22:52 > 0:22:57Also the only Shakespearean play to have the word rhinoceros in it.

0:22:57 > 0:23:00It's the only one. We won't be doing that as a round any time soon.

0:23:00 > 0:23:01- Let's not.- Yeah.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03Thank you very much indeed.

0:23:03 > 0:23:06Now, then, we have a game on our hands here, Lucy.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08I'm unsure.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10So, all the ones that I wanted to say have gone.

0:23:10 > 0:23:13Macbeth was, like, my English text that I studied.

0:23:13 > 0:23:17Now I'm like... I'm going to go for A Midsummer Night's Dream.

0:23:17 > 0:23:18A Midsummer Night's Dream.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21OK, 96 is your target.

0:23:21 > 0:23:2396, you'd have thought, would be doable.

0:23:23 > 0:23:24There's your red line.

0:23:24 > 0:23:27A Midsummer Night's Dream, how many people said it?

0:23:29 > 0:23:31There we are. Very well done.

0:23:34 > 0:23:3643. 43. APPLAUSE

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Takes your total up to 51.

0:23:39 > 0:23:41Well played, Lucy. Kept your cool. Lots of uses of the word fairy,

0:23:41 > 0:23:43and also a ghost in A Midsummer Night's Dream.

0:23:43 > 0:23:47Now, there's quite a few pointless answers. Let's take a look at them.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50Cymbeline is a pointless answer. That uses all four of those words.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53Emperor, ghost and witch in Henry VI, Part I,

0:23:53 > 0:23:55and a ghost and a witch in Part II.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57All of those pointless answers.

0:24:04 > 0:24:06We'll take a look at the top three answers.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08I think we may have had them already.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16There we are. Thank you very much indeed.

0:24:16 > 0:24:19So, at the end of our second round, I'm sorry to say, Anthony and Liya,

0:24:19 > 0:24:20we have to say goodbye to you.

0:24:20 > 0:24:24I mean, hats off. I like the fact you went for Taming Of The Shrew.

0:24:24 > 0:24:26Why did that not have any of those words in?

0:24:26 > 0:24:27It makes no sense at all.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30But it was a gutsy call, and we will see you again next time.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32I'm sure, with that kind of approach to the game,

0:24:32 > 0:24:34you will go much further then.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37But meantime, thanks very much, Anthony and Liya.

0:24:37 > 0:24:38APPLAUSE

0:24:41 > 0:24:44But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:24:49 > 0:24:53Well, congratulations, Ken and Lucy, Louise and Claire,

0:24:53 > 0:24:54you're now one step closer to the final

0:24:54 > 0:24:57and a chance to play for our jackpot,

0:24:57 > 0:24:59which currently stands at £1,000.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01Well, here we are, in the head-to-head,

0:25:01 > 0:25:04which means you're allowed to confer before giving answers,

0:25:04 > 0:25:06which is a great relief, I think we'll all agree.

0:25:06 > 0:25:10First pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13And indeed, I think this is going to be hard fought, this one.

0:25:13 > 0:25:14I think we can say, safely.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17Best of luck to both pairs, let's play the head-to-head.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19APPLAUSE

0:25:22 > 0:25:25Here is your first question, and it concerns...

0:25:28 > 0:25:29US Presidents, Richard.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31I'm going to show you five pictures now of US presidents.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33You just have to name the most obscure.

0:25:33 > 0:25:37Thank you very much. Here come our five US presidents, and we've got...

0:26:02 > 0:26:05There we are. Five US presidents.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08Ken and Lucy, you're our low scorers, so you will go first.

0:26:08 > 0:26:09Just go for it.

0:26:09 > 0:26:13OK, I'm not 100% sure and Lucy may punch me,

0:26:13 > 0:26:15but I'm going to go with B, Gerald Ford.

0:26:15 > 0:26:19- Gerald Ford.- Gerald Ford. - OK. Gerald Ford, say Ken and Lucy.

0:26:19 > 0:26:21Now, Louise and Claire...

0:26:21 > 0:26:24- A's Jimmy Carter, isn't it? - Yes. And E is Richard Nixon.

0:26:24 > 0:26:29- Is C William Taft? - No, because he was really fat.

0:26:29 > 0:26:30Oh, was he? All right.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34I think we're going to have a go... Jimmy Carter.

0:26:34 > 0:26:37- Nixon?- Yeah, go Nixon.

0:26:37 > 0:26:38We'll go E, Richard Nixon.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41E, Richard Nixon. So, we have Gerald Ford and Richard Nixon.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43Ken and Lucy have gone for Gerald Ford.

0:26:43 > 0:26:45Let's see how many people said that for B.

0:26:45 > 0:26:46Is it right?

0:26:48 > 0:26:50It is right.

0:26:50 > 0:26:51Oh, that's a relief.

0:26:54 > 0:26:5529.

0:26:57 > 0:26:5829 for Gerald Ford.

0:26:58 > 0:27:03Meanwhile, Louise and Claire have gone for Richard Nixon for E.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06Let's see how many of our 100 people said Richard Nixon.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12- It's right.- Oh.

0:27:12 > 0:27:1476 for Richard Nixon.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17Very well done, Ken and Lucy - after one question, you're up 1-0.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20Yeah, of course Ford took over from Nixon.

0:27:20 > 0:27:22A is Jimmy Carter, you're quite right about that.

0:27:22 > 0:27:26Jimmy Carter would have scored you 63 points.

0:27:26 > 0:27:29Uh, C is Thomas Jefferson,

0:27:29 > 0:27:31and is a pointless answer as well,

0:27:31 > 0:27:33so very well done if you said that.

0:27:33 > 0:27:34And D is

0:27:34 > 0:27:36Woodrow Wilson.

0:27:36 > 0:27:38That is Woodrow Wilson, would have scored you three points.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40Very well done if you said that.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42Very well done to our three people as well who said that.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45Thank you very much indeed, Richard. So, here comes your second question.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Louise and Claire, you have to win this one to stay in the game,

0:27:47 > 0:27:49but you get to answer it first, so best of luck.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52Our second question is all about...

0:27:54 > 0:27:55All about cheese, Richard.

0:27:55 > 0:27:58It's all about cheese. We are going to show you five clues now

0:27:58 > 0:28:00to facts about cheese - can you give us the most obscure answer?

0:28:00 > 0:28:03OK, let's reveal our five facts and here they come.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05We have got...

0:28:29 > 0:28:31I'll read those again.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54So, Louise and Claire, you will go first.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56THEY WHISPER

0:29:01 > 0:29:04We're going to go, because I think I'm probably going to look stupid

0:29:04 > 0:29:07if I don't get this right, the name of the plant

0:29:07 > 0:29:10used to wrap Cornish yarg is nettle.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12Nettle. Nettle.

0:29:12 > 0:29:15Now then, Ken and Lucy, the board's all yours.

0:29:15 > 0:29:19We know the easy ones, so Little Miss Muffet was a spider,

0:29:19 > 0:29:22Charles de Gaulle's country was France.

0:29:22 > 0:29:24Animal whose milk is used to produce pule...?

0:29:24 > 0:29:27I want to say it is a ewe...

0:29:27 > 0:29:29I'm going to go out on a punt and say...

0:29:29 > 0:29:31You haven't discussed this with me!

0:29:31 > 0:29:33Sorry!

0:29:33 > 0:29:36- Shall we say...?- Partnership, Ken.

0:29:36 > 0:29:37I really don't think it's that.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40OK. We're going to say...

0:29:40 > 0:29:43- A ewe.- A ewe?- Yeah.- Ewe's milk.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45Ewe's milk to make pule.

0:29:45 > 0:29:47So, we have nettle and we have a ewe.

0:29:47 > 0:29:49Now, Louise and Claire went for nettle,

0:29:49 > 0:29:52that Cornish yarg is wrapped in.

0:29:52 > 0:29:54Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said nettle.

0:29:56 > 0:29:57It is right.

0:30:04 > 0:30:0716. Very well done indeed.

0:30:07 > 0:30:08Nettle.

0:30:08 > 0:30:14And Ken and Lucy went for ewe's milk to make pule.

0:30:14 > 0:30:15Let's see if that's right.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18Let's see how many of our 100 people said ewe's milk.

0:30:18 > 0:30:19Go on.

0:30:21 > 0:30:23No! It's not the ewe, I'm afraid, but very well done,

0:30:23 > 0:30:26Louise and Claire. Back in the game after two questions.

0:30:26 > 0:30:27- It's 1-1.- Yeah, not the ewe.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29We'll get on to what it is last, I think.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31Now, the county...

0:30:31 > 0:30:34If I tell you the cheese is Double Gloucester...

0:30:34 > 0:30:36- Gloucestershire.- Yeah.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38Would have scored 15.

0:30:38 > 0:30:39The creature is the spider.

0:30:39 > 0:30:42It's a very big scorer, as you'd expect, 88.

0:30:42 > 0:30:45The country that Charles de Gaulle suggested

0:30:45 > 0:30:47was hard to govern was France, 51 for that.

0:30:47 > 0:30:50And the animal... Now, it's a pointless answer,

0:30:50 > 0:30:52which will tell you it's an unusual animal.

0:30:52 > 0:30:53It's not going to be an ass, is it?

0:30:53 > 0:30:55- Not ass' milk, no?- It is a donkey.

0:30:55 > 0:30:57- No!- Yeah. Donkey.- Is it really?

0:30:57 > 0:30:59It's a pointless answer. Yeah, it is indeed.

0:30:59 > 0:31:00Very well done if you said that.

0:31:00 > 0:31:02I think Novak Djokovic, the tennis player,

0:31:02 > 0:31:05very famously, has invested a huge amount of money in donkey cheese.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08And famously, Cleopatra liked to, loved to take a bath in ass' milk.

0:31:08 > 0:31:10So, we come back to Shakespeare.

0:31:10 > 0:31:12- Don't we just?- Yeah. There we are. - As so often.

0:31:12 > 0:31:15As so often. Thank you very much indeed.

0:31:15 > 0:31:17Now then, it all comes down to our third question.

0:31:17 > 0:31:19Whoever wins this goes through to the final

0:31:19 > 0:31:20and plays for that jackpot.

0:31:20 > 0:31:24Best of luck to both pairs. Our third question is all about...

0:31:26 > 0:31:28- Perfume ingredients. - Going to show you five ingredients

0:31:28 > 0:31:30now commonly used in perfumes.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32We've missed out alternate letters from each.

0:31:32 > 0:31:34Can you fill in those gaps, please?

0:31:34 > 0:31:38OK, let's reveal our perfume ingredients and here they are.

0:31:38 > 0:31:39We have got...

0:31:48 > 0:31:49I'll read those all one last time.

0:31:56 > 0:31:58Ken and Lucy will go first.

0:31:58 > 0:32:00We know...three of them.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05Yeah, we're going to go with the last one

0:32:05 > 0:32:07and say it's sandalwood.

0:32:07 > 0:32:09OK, sandalwood, say Ken and Lucy.

0:32:09 > 0:32:12Sandalwood. Now then, Louise and Claire,

0:32:12 > 0:32:14do you want to talk through the rest of the board?

0:32:14 > 0:32:16Um...

0:32:16 > 0:32:18I think I can see lavender there,

0:32:18 > 0:32:20but that's going to be quite a high scorer.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23I'm not sure about the ones below.

0:32:23 > 0:32:27But I think the top might be hibiscus.

0:32:27 > 0:32:29- Yeah, go with that.- Sure?- Yeah.

0:32:29 > 0:32:31- OK.- Hibiscus. - You're going to say hibiscus.

0:32:31 > 0:32:33So, we have sandalwood and we have hibiscus.

0:32:33 > 0:32:35Now, Ken and Lucy went for sandalwood.

0:32:35 > 0:32:38Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said sandalwood.

0:32:42 > 0:32:43It's right.

0:32:47 > 0:32:49Not bad. 30 for sandalwood.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55Now, Louise and Claire, meanwhile,

0:32:55 > 0:32:57have gone for hibiscus for the top one.

0:32:57 > 0:32:58Let's see if that's right,

0:32:58 > 0:33:01let's see how many of our 100 people said hibiscus.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05- Oh!- It's right.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09Oh. 54 for hibiscus.

0:33:11 > 0:33:14Very well done, Ken and Lucy, after three questions,

0:33:14 > 0:33:16you're through to the final, 2-1.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19There's a couple of answers there that would have beaten sandalwood.

0:33:19 > 0:33:20The third and fourth one.

0:33:20 > 0:33:22Lavender would have scored you too many points...

0:33:23 > 0:33:2562.

0:33:25 > 0:33:28- We'll go to the second bottom first, which is...- Civet.- Civet.

0:33:28 > 0:33:30which is taken from the animal, the civet.

0:33:30 > 0:33:32Scored 21. Do you know this last one?

0:33:32 > 0:33:35It's also used to flavour Earl Grey tea.

0:33:35 > 0:33:37- Oh! Bergamot. Bergamot.- Exactly.

0:33:37 > 0:33:405 points for that. Well done if you said that.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42Thank you very much indeed.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head, I'm afraid,

0:33:45 > 0:33:46Louise and Claire.

0:33:46 > 0:33:48But do you know? It's not bad news, really,

0:33:48 > 0:33:51because it means you'll get to come back for another show.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53If you'd gone through to the final, that would have been it, all over.

0:33:53 > 0:33:56We'll look forward to seeing you again next time when, I'm sure,

0:33:56 > 0:33:58you will do just as well, if not better, let's hope.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01Until then, thanks very much, Louise and Claire.

0:34:01 > 0:34:04APPLAUSE

0:34:06 > 0:34:08But for Ken and Lucy, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:34:12 > 0:34:14Congratulations, Ken and Lucy,

0:34:14 > 0:34:16you have seen off all the competition

0:34:16 > 0:34:19and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:34:25 > 0:34:28- Yes!- You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot and,

0:34:28 > 0:34:30at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,000.

0:34:30 > 0:34:31Well, very, very well done.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33- Thank you.- What a turnaround.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35- Indeed.- Yeah. - Your first performance...

0:34:35 > 0:34:38- You predicted it!- I had a hunch, though. I had a hunch that,

0:34:38 > 0:34:40you know, Pointless did owe you one, as I said.

0:34:40 > 0:34:44- Thank you very much.- Anything you particularly want to see, on this,

0:34:44 > 0:34:45in this last round?

0:34:45 > 0:34:48Film, celebrities, Oscars, pop music...

0:34:48 > 0:34:50That's all me. I don't know about her.

0:34:50 > 0:34:52- All the junky stuff. - Yeah, yeah, junky stuff.

0:34:52 > 0:34:54Anything else you want to contribute?

0:34:54 > 0:34:55No, I don't like the pressure.

0:34:55 > 0:34:58I'm good to go with those categories and contribute.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00You know those aren't the ones that will come up.

0:35:00 > 0:35:01If it's F1, we're walking off.

0:35:01 > 0:35:03You know what they're like, they're quite scary, these,

0:35:03 > 0:35:05but behind them, there are things that are less scary.

0:35:05 > 0:35:08You get to choose the category from the four we put up.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11Today's selection looks like this. We have got...

0:35:17 > 0:35:20- I think we should go with 1990s British...- Yeah, me too.

0:35:20 > 0:35:221990s British TV sitcoms.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24- Well, that was nice and quick. Very good.- Yeah, very best of luck.

0:35:24 > 0:35:26We are looking for any actor

0:35:26 > 0:35:28who appeared in two or more episodes of the following, please.

0:35:28 > 0:35:31So, if according to IMDb, anyone appeared in...

0:35:39 > 0:35:42That's what we're looking for. So, Keeping Up Appearances,

0:35:42 > 0:35:44Goodnight, Sweetheart, Dinnerladies, two or more appearances.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46Very best of luck.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:35:48 > 0:35:51OK, now, as always, you've got up to one minute

0:35:51 > 0:35:53to come up with three answers.

0:35:53 > 0:35:54All you need to win that jackpot

0:35:54 > 0:35:56is for just one of your answers to be pointless.

0:35:56 > 0:36:00- Are you ready?- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.

0:36:00 > 0:36:03There they are. Your time starts now.

0:36:03 > 0:36:04OK, this is a total nightmare for me.

0:36:04 > 0:36:07- Dinnerladies...- Victoria Wood.

0:36:07 > 0:36:10Victoria Wood. Julie Walters.

0:36:10 > 0:36:12That's obvious.

0:36:12 > 0:36:14Um, that really nice Asian actress.

0:36:14 > 0:36:17She's been in Coronation Street, left Coronation Street.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20Keeping Up Appearances, that was the one with Hyacinth Bucket,

0:36:20 > 0:36:21but I can't think of the actress.

0:36:21 > 0:36:24There was a guy called Geoffrey in it. That doesn't help.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26Perhaps we should focus...

0:36:26 > 0:36:29- What about Goodnight Sweetheart? - Nicholas Lyndhurst, he was the star.

0:36:29 > 0:36:30- Didn't watch it.- OK, well,

0:36:30 > 0:36:32I was born in 1992, so this isn't great, so...

0:36:32 > 0:36:35- Episodes of Dinnerladies. - Yes, Dinnerladies.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37Well, Victoria Wood is the famous one.

0:36:37 > 0:36:40- Can't say that.- Julie Walters is really famous as well.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42Oh, oh, oh.

0:36:44 > 0:36:46Anyone else serve the dinners?

0:36:46 > 0:36:50Em... Oh, oh, that actress who's a big, massive star now.

0:36:50 > 0:36:52- Um, she does that thing with the... - Ten seconds left.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54She's a judge.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57It's called Silks. I think her name is something...

0:36:57 > 0:37:00Oh, it starts with a M. Oh, she's a really good actress.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03- Michelle?- No, no. She used to be in Shameless as well.

0:37:03 > 0:37:05OK, I'm afraid that is your time up.

0:37:05 > 0:37:08- I'm so sorry.- No worries.- Just as you were on a rich vein there.

0:37:08 > 0:37:10I'm afraid I now need your three answers,

0:37:10 > 0:37:13and if you say which category you are answering, that would be great.

0:37:13 > 0:37:15OK, we are going to go for Dinnerladies.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17- For all three? - All three of them, yes.

0:37:18 > 0:37:20- Julie Walters.- Julie Walters.

0:37:20 > 0:37:21Obviously will not be pointless.

0:37:21 > 0:37:22Um...

0:37:23 > 0:37:26Victoria Wood, we love you, so we have to go with Victoria Wood.

0:37:26 > 0:37:28- Victoria Wood.- And the other actress, I don't know her name,

0:37:28 > 0:37:30so I'm going to say her name is...

0:37:30 > 0:37:32Margarita Pike. What a fantastic name.

0:37:32 > 0:37:35It's not her name, but we're going to go with Margarita Pike.

0:37:35 > 0:37:36Margarita Pike.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38Oh, she was good, wasn't she?

0:37:38 > 0:37:39Margarita Pike.

0:37:39 > 0:37:44So, of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:37:44 > 0:37:46Oh, I think Margarita Pike.

0:37:46 > 0:37:47LAUGHTER

0:37:47 > 0:37:50Wouldn't it be lovely if she just suddenly happened to exist,

0:37:50 > 0:37:52just for the sake of this show?

0:37:52 > 0:37:54Margarita Pike, we'll put her last, then.

0:37:54 > 0:37:57- OK, least likely to be pointless? - Victoria Wood.- Victoria Wood.

0:37:57 > 0:37:58And I agree with you. We love Victoria Wood,

0:37:58 > 0:38:00and I know she would never be pointless

0:38:00 > 0:38:03because she's far too well-known and respected for that,

0:38:03 > 0:38:05but lovely to be able to say her name, isn't it? Victoria Wood.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07We'll pop those answers on the board in that order

0:38:07 > 0:38:09and here they are. We've got...

0:38:12 > 0:38:17And the wonderful, the peerless, the nonpareil, Margarita Pike.

0:38:17 > 0:38:22Now, if one of these answers were to win you that jackpot,

0:38:22 > 0:38:24what would you do with it? Ken, you first.

0:38:24 > 0:38:28I would buy box sets of '90s TV British sitcoms.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31You could do a lot worse, I think, couldn't you, with that money?

0:38:31 > 0:38:32Lucy, what would you like to do?

0:38:32 > 0:38:34Probably the same, quiz up.

0:38:34 > 0:38:36- General knowledge book.- Very good.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38- Well, you can pool them and share. - Yeah.- Very good.

0:38:38 > 0:38:40OK, well, very, very best of luck. Three answers on the board.

0:38:40 > 0:38:42It would be amazing and wonderful

0:38:42 > 0:38:44if one of these turned out to be pointless,

0:38:44 > 0:38:45but let's just find out.

0:38:45 > 0:38:46We are looking, in all three cases,

0:38:46 > 0:38:48for actors who appeared in Dinnerladies.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50Two or more episodes of Dinnerladies.

0:38:50 > 0:38:52Your least confident shot at a pointless answer

0:38:52 > 0:38:54was Victoria Wood.

0:38:54 > 0:38:56Let's find out, for £1,000, how many people said it.

0:38:56 > 0:38:58Is it pointless?

0:39:01 > 0:39:03It's right. Certainly that.

0:39:03 > 0:39:07Victoria Wood takes us down through the 60s, into the 50s...

0:39:07 > 0:39:09- Ooh!- Into 51.

0:39:09 > 0:39:12- 51.- God bless Victoria Wood.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15Hear, hear. Unfortunately not a pointless answer,

0:39:15 > 0:39:17which means you have two more shots at today's jackpot.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20Your next answer was Julie Walters.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23Again, if this is pointless, it'll win you £1,000.

0:39:23 > 0:39:26If it's pointless, I think we'll all be quite surprised,

0:39:26 > 0:39:27but there we are.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30Let's find out, for £1,000, how many people said Julie Walters.

0:39:33 > 0:39:34It's right.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36Victoria Wood scored 51.

0:39:36 > 0:39:39Interesting to see where Julie Walters ends up.

0:39:39 > 0:39:41Passes 51, down it goes, look at that.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43Down through the 30s and the 20s.

0:39:43 > 0:39:4624. Isn't that strange?

0:39:46 > 0:39:49Only 24 for Julie Walters.

0:39:49 > 0:39:51Well, it's moving in the right direction.

0:39:51 > 0:39:53All that is required now is for Margaret Pike

0:39:53 > 0:39:56to swim up and take that jackpot for you.

0:39:56 > 0:40:00- Margarita Pike, I beg your pardon. - Yes. Get her name right.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03- She's very particular. - Somewhere, right now,

0:40:03 > 0:40:06there is a Margarita Pike watching this, just thinking...

0:40:09 > 0:40:11Margarita Pike, is it right?

0:40:11 > 0:40:13Let's go that far to start with.

0:40:13 > 0:40:16Is it right? And if it is, if it's pointless, it'll win you £1,000.

0:40:16 > 0:40:17Let's see what happens.

0:40:22 > 0:40:24- What?!- I'm sorry.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26- Shocked. - I'm sorry, she wasn't in it.

0:40:26 > 0:40:30- She wasn't in it. Turned it down. - Thank you.

0:40:30 > 0:40:34Well, listen, it didn't land as well as it sometimes can, that round,

0:40:34 > 0:40:37for you, I'm afraid, but it was a game attempt.

0:40:37 > 0:40:39But you didn't manage to find that pointless answer,

0:40:39 > 0:40:41so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £1,000.

0:40:41 > 0:40:44That rolls over onto the next show, but it's been great having you.

0:40:44 > 0:40:46- It's been fantastic. - Two excellent performances.

0:40:46 > 0:40:49Slightly different performances, but excellent nonetheless.

0:40:49 > 0:40:50And you get a Pointless trophy each

0:40:50 > 0:40:53- to take home, so very well done. - Yes!- Yes!

0:40:53 > 0:40:54Thank you.

0:40:54 > 0:40:55APPLAUSE

0:40:55 > 0:40:57Congratulations. You know what?

0:40:57 > 0:40:59You weren't a million miles away with Margarita Pike.

0:40:59 > 0:41:00The actor you're thinking of,

0:41:00 > 0:41:02who's in Silk and all sorts of things, is Maxine Peake!

0:41:02 > 0:41:06- Oh! See! And you laughed! - Would have scored you two points,

0:41:06 > 0:41:09Maxine Peake, so wouldn't have been a pointless answer. Shobna Gulati was the actor

0:41:09 > 0:41:13from Coronation Street you were thinking of. She would have scored you three points.

0:41:13 > 0:41:15Now, let's take a look at the pointless answers.

0:41:15 > 0:41:17We'll start with Keeping Up Appearances.

0:41:17 > 0:41:20David Griffin, who played Emmet, was a pointless answer.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22Judy Cornwell, who was Daisy, she's a pointless answer.

0:41:22 > 0:41:23Marion Barron.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25Mary Miller, who played Rose...

0:41:25 > 0:41:27In fact, everyone in that list was pointless

0:41:27 > 0:41:30apart from Patricia Routledge, Clive Swift, Geoffrey Hughes,

0:41:30 > 0:41:31who is the Geoffrey you were thinking of,

0:41:31 > 0:41:33Josephine Tewson and Shirley Stelfox.

0:41:33 > 0:41:35Everybody else was a pointless answer.

0:41:35 > 0:41:37Goodnight Sweetheart...

0:41:37 > 0:41:41Christopher Ettridge, who was PC Reg in that.

0:41:41 > 0:41:44David Ryall, the wonderful David Ryall, Eve Bland.

0:41:44 > 0:41:46Timothy West was a pointless answer there as well.

0:41:46 > 0:41:49In fact, everyone pointless on that apart from Nicholas Lyndhurst,

0:41:49 > 0:41:51Dervla Kirwan, Elizabeth Carling, Michelle Holmes,

0:41:51 > 0:41:53Emma Amos and Victor McGuire.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56Everyone else was pointless. And Dinnerladies now.

0:41:56 > 0:41:58There's some well-known names on this.

0:41:58 > 0:42:01Andrew Dunn, who played Tony. Duncan Preston, a pointless answer,

0:42:01 > 0:42:03he did all sorts of Victoria Wood's productions.

0:42:03 > 0:42:06Kate Robbins, the impressionist, was a pointless answer.

0:42:06 > 0:42:07Sue Cleaver, perhaps better known

0:42:07 > 0:42:08as Eileen Grimshaw on Corrie,

0:42:08 > 0:42:10also a pointless answer,

0:42:10 > 0:42:12so very well done if you got any of those at home.

0:42:12 > 0:42:14Thanks very much indeed.

0:42:14 > 0:42:16Sadly, Ken and Lucy didn't win our jackpot today,

0:42:16 > 0:42:18which means it rolls over onto the next show,

0:42:18 > 0:42:21when we will be playing for £2,000.

0:42:21 > 0:42:23APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:42:24 > 0:42:26Join us then to see someone can win it.

0:42:26 > 0:42:28- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
