0:00:15 > 0:00:17APPLAUSE
0:00:21 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:25 > 0:00:28the show where we are always striving to find the most obscure answers.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35And couple number one.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Hello, my name is Al and this is my wife Kitty
0:00:37 > 0:00:39- and we're from Southampton. - Couple number two.
0:00:39 > 0:00:43Hi, I'm Millsy from London and this is my friend Catherine from
0:00:43 > 0:00:45- Stockton-on-Tees. - Couple number three.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48Hi, I'm Eileen and this is my daughter Martina and we're
0:00:48 > 0:00:51- from London. - And finally couple number four.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Bob and this is my civil partner Graham and we're from
0:00:54 > 0:00:56Newmilns in East Ayrshire, Scotland.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58And these are today's contestants.
0:01:00 > 0:01:01Thanks very much, all of you,
0:01:01 > 0:01:04we'll get to chat to you a little bit more throughout the show
0:01:04 > 0:01:07as it goes along so that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11If ignorance is the disease, then he is the cure. To be taken once daily.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:15 > 0:01:16Hiya. Hey, everybody.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Good afternoon, good afternoon, good afternoon.
0:01:19 > 0:01:23Also, you must not operate heavy machinery after using me.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25- That's the other thing.- Yes. - Because you will feel...
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- I think a lot of people after this show tend to feel drowsy.- Yeah!
0:01:28 > 0:01:29ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:01:29 > 0:01:32I think I take some of the blame for that, Richard, I think, really.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Two returning pairs are on podiums three and four, we welcome you back.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39Two new pairs, I don't think Millsy is Millsy's real name which we'll discover, that's just...
0:01:39 > 0:01:41I have a detective's nose for that sort of thing.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Round One is not going to meet with universal approval.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47- OK.- I tell you right now.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49It's Miss Marple's nose, I see now.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51LAUGHTER
0:01:51 > 0:01:52It is very similar, isn't it, yeah?
0:01:52 > 0:01:54- It is.- Very much like the late Joan Hickson.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57LAUGHTER Thank you very much, Richard.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59Now, Gareth and David didn't win the jackpot last time.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02This is exciting, which means we add another £1,000 to that,
0:02:02 > 0:02:06so today's jackpot starts off at £3,000. There we are.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Right, if everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Just remember this,
0:02:18 > 0:02:22the pair with the highest score at the end of each round will be
0:02:22 > 0:02:25eliminated and there's no conferring until we get to the head-to-head.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Other than that, very best of luck to all four pairs,
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Our first category today is...
0:02:32 > 0:02:35It's a football round. Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:02:35 > 0:02:37who's going to go second?
0:02:37 > 0:02:40And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46OK. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:02:46 > 0:02:51We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:02:55 > 0:02:58..as they could. Richard.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Yeah, we haven't done football for ages so bad timing if it's not for you.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04We're looking for any of the 32 teams who qualified for
0:03:04 > 0:03:08the group stages of the 2015/2016 UEFA Champions League, please.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Thanks very much indeed. Now, Kitty, welcome to Pointless.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Great to have you here from Southampton.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15What keeps you busy in Southampton, Kitty?
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Well, I work at the University of Southampton in the design
0:03:18 > 0:03:22- and print department so... - Oh, now, that's fun.- Well...
0:03:22 > 0:03:25So you're designing and printing what particularly?
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Well, it's a mixture of things for the university, so course brochures,
0:03:28 > 0:03:30but we also do work for external customers as well,
0:03:30 > 0:03:34so, local NHS trusts and county councils and things like that.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Oh, I see. And your interests outside that, Kitty, what are they?
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Well, I like going on holiday and travelling
0:03:39 > 0:03:43so I basically would want to spend most of my time doing that.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47- It's quite an expensive pursuit, though.- It is.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51So, I have to console myself with just day trips and things
0:03:51 > 0:03:55like that and I've recently got a DSLR camera
0:03:55 > 0:03:58so I'm trying to teach myself how to use that.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Very good, very good indeed. Now, how do we feel about football?
0:04:01 > 0:04:03I'm going to be honest, it's not probably one of my strongest
0:04:03 > 0:04:07- subjects which is why I've decided go first.- OK.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11What are you thinking of going for? In fact, what are you going for?
0:04:11 > 0:04:15I am going to go with one I'm fairly confident with
0:04:15 > 0:04:18and say Paris Saint-Germain.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Paris Saint-Germain says Kitty, let's see if that's right,
0:04:21 > 0:04:23let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27It's right. Good answer, Kitty.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32It's a good score, too, look at that.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36Down it goes to 18. Wonderful start to the show. Bravo, Kitty.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Yes, Paris Saint-Germain, it's quite difficult for
0:04:38 > 0:04:41me to give facts on this because the facts are usually the other
0:04:41 > 0:04:44teams that they played against, all of which are answers as well.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47But Paris Saint-Germain is a football team based in Paris
0:04:47 > 0:04:49in France.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- Thank you.- Pleasure.- Millsy.- Hello.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58Now, let's just settle this once and for all for the detective on
0:04:58 > 0:05:01my left. That's not your given name.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05- It's not on my birth certificate, no.- How did you know that?
0:05:05 > 0:05:08- It's just... Something.- Clever.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Where did it come from?
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Is your surname Miller? - No, Mills.- Mills!
0:05:13 > 0:05:17- So, "Millsy".- Yeah.- Very good. Now, what do you do, Millsy?
0:05:17 > 0:05:22- I'm an HR director for a content marketing agency.- Content marketing?
0:05:22 > 0:05:23Yes.
0:05:23 > 0:05:28- What is that? - It's journalism, really.- I see.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Magazines but most of it online.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- I see. Fine, you enjoy it? - Yes, I do, yeah.- Good.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37And what do you like doing when you're not doing that, Millsy?
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Well, I'm kept quite busy with my two boys at home
0:05:40 > 0:05:43so my son is four and my husband is 45.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45LAUGHTER
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- Right, I see what you mean. What's your son aged four called?- Edward.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51- Hello, Edward.- Oh, he'll love that!
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Very good indeed.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56Now, Millsy, football, how are we feeling about football?
0:05:56 > 0:05:57Oh, terrible, really terrible.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01I've got one answer, I think. Real Madrid.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04Real Madrid? Only need one answer.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Let's see how far down the column we get with Real Madrid.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11It's right.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Well, 18 is what we have from Paris Saint-Germain...
0:06:14 > 0:06:1653 for Real Madrid.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22- Well played, Millsy. Millsy, of course, is like a footballer's name essentially.- Oh, is it?
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Yeah, that's what they'd be called. Real Madrid,
0:06:25 > 0:06:26- they are a football team from Madrid...- Ah.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28LAUGHTER
0:06:28 > 0:06:29..which is in Spain,
0:06:29 > 0:06:32which is right next to France, which, as you remember
0:06:32 > 0:06:35is where Paris Saint-Germain... Well, they're from Paris.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37They should get together and play.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Well, people have thought that before.
0:06:42 > 0:06:43Eileen, welcome back.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46Eileen, remind us what you like getting up to?
0:06:46 > 0:06:47I've got lots of hobbies.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51I'm retired now but I cook a lot, do gardening, knitting,
0:06:51 > 0:06:52looking after my grandchild...
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Do you cook things you grow in the garden?
0:06:55 > 0:07:01Some of them, not all of them are edible but a lot of them might be.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Some riddled with worms but,
0:07:02 > 0:07:07it's quite nice to grow one's own fruit and veg.
0:07:07 > 0:07:08Well, it is!
0:07:08 > 0:07:09What sort of veg do you grow?
0:07:09 > 0:07:13Well, I'm assuming you are a veg gardener among other things.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Flowers are my favourite things but I feel that I need to
0:07:16 > 0:07:18start cooking...
0:07:18 > 0:07:23planting more veg, so I've done potatoes, carrots, easy stuff.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27- Potatoes? See, that's nice. And that's OK.- Easy stuff.- Courgettes?
0:07:27 > 0:07:32Courgettes, peppers, I like planting peppers, green beans...
0:07:32 > 0:07:37- I've just planted some chillies, I've got five chilli plants.- Wow!
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Can you give one to me, please, Alexander?
0:07:40 > 0:07:43They're still seedlings at this stage but, they are coming on apace.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46It's very exciting. Now, Eileen, what would you like to go for?
0:07:46 > 0:07:49You're going to have to have a punt at something.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52I bet she has a really good answer. That's always the way.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Sorry, Martina, Barcelona.
0:07:55 > 0:08:00Barcelona says Eileen, let's see how many of 100 people said Barcelona.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04It's right.
0:08:04 > 0:08:0553 is our highest score,
0:08:05 > 0:08:0762 is our new high score.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10There we are, Barcelona, very well done, Eileen.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Nothing wrong with that.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15And again, like the previous two answers, a football team.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19This time from Barcelona in Spain. That's where they're based.
0:08:19 > 0:08:24Which is the same place that Real Madrid were from, Madrid in Spain.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27- Fascinating.- There it is.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30- Now, Graham, welcome back. - Thank you.- Lovely to have you.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Now, last time, we had to say goodbye to you at the end of the first round.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36That is not going to happen this time.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39- Remind us what you do, Graham. - I'm actually retired.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43I was an IT manager for 32 years
0:08:43 > 0:08:44with the same company.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48What keeps you busy now, what do you like getting up to?
0:08:48 > 0:08:54I like gardening, I also do soft furnishings, so cushions,
0:08:54 > 0:08:57- curtains and headboards. - That's clever.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00I mean, what, you have a workshop and you just...
0:09:00 > 0:09:05No, I had a sewing machine for my birthday off Bob and I like
0:09:05 > 0:09:07just changing the colours around a bit.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- I mean, had you got experience with a sewing machine before?- No.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13How long have you had it for?
0:09:13 > 0:09:16Just about a year. My first attempt was a zip.
0:09:16 > 0:09:20Very good, indeed. Now, Graham, football.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24Football team that took part in the 15/16 Champions League.
0:09:24 > 0:09:29I'm sort of debating a couple.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33But I think the one that I'll go for is Olympiacos.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36Olympiacos says Graham, let's see if that's right,
0:09:36 > 0:09:39let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44It's right. Well, 62 is our high score, you've passed that.
0:09:44 > 0:09:4718 is our low score, you passed that.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49Olympiacos scores you 3.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53That's the way to do it, Graham, very well done indeed.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56That's a great answer, Graham, very well played.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58They are a football team as well.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01They are a Greek football team from the city of Olympiacos.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Thank you very much, Richard. Well, we're halfway through the round,
0:10:05 > 0:10:07let's take a look at those scores.
0:10:07 > 0:10:093, the best score of that pass by a margin.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Look at that, Graham, very well done.
0:10:11 > 0:10:12I would say Graham and Bob looking like
0:10:12 > 0:10:15a shoe-in for Round Two at this stage.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Then, 18 is where we find Kitty and Al,
0:10:18 > 0:10:2153 is where we find Millsy and Catherine and then, 62,
0:10:21 > 0:10:24Eileen and Martina, you're out in front but not by too much and,
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Martina, a nice low score from you should keep you in the
0:10:26 > 0:10:27game so good luck with that.
0:10:27 > 0:10:31We're going to come back down the line, can the second player please step up to the podium?
0:10:34 > 0:10:36- Bob. Welcome back.- Thank you.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Remind us what you do up in East Ayrshire.
0:10:39 > 0:10:44I'm retired and I enjoyed taking photographs and doing videography.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47I see. What sort of photographs do you generally take?
0:10:47 > 0:10:48Are you a landscape photographer?
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Landscapes, really, yeah,
0:10:50 > 0:10:53- and travelogues, I like to do. - That's fun.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55And what do you do with the travelogues?
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Is this like the modern-day version of the slide show
0:10:58 > 0:11:03- that we grew up with?- Yes, yes. I can put them on a streaming website.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06That's good. And do you do a voice-over for them as well?
0:11:06 > 0:11:11Not usually, no, I just tend to use the original sound that's
0:11:11 > 0:11:16recorded with the video or sometimes there's some music to it.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Very nice, very nice indeed. Now, there you are,
0:11:18 > 0:11:22Graham has set you up absolutely beautifully with 3 points
0:11:22 > 0:11:26there against our high-scorers Martina and Eileen of 62,
0:11:26 > 0:11:28so 58 or less gets you comfortably through.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32Not a good one for me but I'd say Manchester City.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36Manchester City, says Bob, let's see how many of our 100 people said that. There's your red line,
0:11:36 > 0:11:39let's see how far down you get with Manchester City.
0:11:42 > 0:11:43It's right.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46And you just get through. Look at that.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49You needed 58 you got 57.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53That is economy. Takes your total up to 60.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56I can actually say that they beat Paris Saint-Germain.
0:11:56 > 0:11:57Oh, it's all getting easier now.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00A little bit easier, isn't it? A little bit more relaxing.
0:12:00 > 0:12:05Oh, it's tough, I know, for you because you have got facts galore!
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Oh, goodness me. I could be talking
0:12:07 > 0:12:10for hours about Olympiacos if you let me.
0:12:10 > 0:12:11I really could.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15Thanks very much indeed. Now, Martina, welcome back.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Now, remind us what you do.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21I work in social housing, I'm a village manager.
0:12:21 > 0:12:22- A village manager?- Yes.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24That sounds nice.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26A village manager, when they say that, what does that mean?
0:12:26 > 0:12:28You're in charge? What sizes of village?
0:12:28 > 0:12:31So, my current village is about 700 properties, although
0:12:31 > 0:12:35I have moved around the area that I work within, an area in London,
0:12:35 > 0:12:38so I've managed up to 1,600 properties at one time with my team.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Cor, that's a lot.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Martina, your interests when you're not managing properties?
0:12:43 > 0:12:48OK, so I look after my daughter at home as well and my mother
0:12:48 > 0:12:51gives me a hand with the childcare which is great,
0:12:51 > 0:12:55I like going out to nice restaurants in London,
0:12:55 > 0:12:59I also go to musical theatre productions also,
0:12:59 > 0:13:02and when I get the time, reading.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Very good indeed. Football on that list at all?
0:13:05 > 0:13:09- Football is probably my worst subject ever.- Right, OK.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12And I know lots of people at home, my family members are going
0:13:12 > 0:13:15to be shouting at me but I'm going to go with West Ham.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17West Ham says Martina.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Let's find out. West Ham.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23Is it right? How many people said West Ham?
0:13:23 > 0:13:25No red line for you as you're the high-scorers.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30- Oh, sorry, Mum. I had to risk it. - I'm sorry, Martina.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, scores you 100 points,
0:13:33 > 0:13:35takes your total up to 162.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Yeah, sorry, Martina, not a bad guess at all, I mean,
0:13:37 > 0:13:40a few years ago, you wouldn't have thought of West Ham United being in
0:13:40 > 0:13:44the Champions League but these days, a much more realistic proposition.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now then, Catherine.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49A warm welcome to Pointless.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52Good to have you here, and what you do, Catherine?
0:13:52 > 0:13:56- I'm a commercial lawyer for a high-street retailer.- I see.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58And is that based in London?
0:13:58 > 0:14:03- Well, it's a national chain, so there are stores nationally. - Everywhere.
0:14:03 > 0:14:04And what are your interests, Catherine?
0:14:04 > 0:14:08Well, I love being in the great outdoors so we go walking
0:14:08 > 0:14:12in the Lakes twice a year and I enjoy horse riding and
0:14:12 > 0:14:15I try to spend as much time as possible with my daughter
0:14:15 > 0:14:18- who's just turned three.- Lovely, what's your daughter called?- Flora.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21- Flora. She'll be watching, I assume?- Absolutely.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25- Well, depends how you do. - No, I think she will.- She will, OK.
0:14:25 > 0:14:26There we are.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29Now, there you are, you're on 53, it doesn't matter what you score, you
0:14:29 > 0:14:32will be through to the next round even if you get this wrong.
0:14:32 > 0:14:36That's amazing. Because this isn't a strong subject at all for me.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39I'm struggling. I'm just going to say Chelsea.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42Chelsea says Catherine, let's see if that's right,
0:14:42 > 0:14:44let's see how many about 100 people said it.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47No red line for the nice reason that you're already through.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Chelsea is right.
0:14:50 > 0:14:5374 is what you score,
0:14:53 > 0:14:56takes your total up to 127.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Yeah, back in the good old days when Chelsea used to be in
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- the Champions League. - ALEXANDER SIGHS
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Sepia-tinted days of yore.
0:15:05 > 0:15:06ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11Now, Al, welcome to Pointless.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Good to have you here from Southampton.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14What do you do, Al?
0:15:14 > 0:15:17I'm team leader in a sales department for an insurance company.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Very good. What are your interests, Al?
0:15:19 > 0:15:21I like softball.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23I play softball regularly.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26And also do a podcast every week.
0:15:26 > 0:15:27Oh, do you? What's your podcast called?
0:15:27 > 0:15:30It's called the Dead Piett Society.
0:15:30 > 0:15:31Why's that?
0:15:31 > 0:15:34It's a mashup of names from Dead Poets Society,
0:15:34 > 0:15:37but also Admiral Piett was a very minor character in
0:15:37 > 0:15:39the original Star Wars films.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Oh, I see. So is it a sort of sci-fi-based podcast?
0:15:42 > 0:15:45No, it's kind of we look at the weirdest news stories
0:15:45 > 0:15:47- from that week.- Oh, right.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49And what sort of listenership do you have?
0:15:49 > 0:15:50- Not many. - LAUGHTER
0:15:50 > 0:15:53- But still - fun?- Fun.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Maybe you'll get some more now, the Dead Piett Society.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Anyway, also, you are through to the next round, even if you score 100,
0:15:58 > 0:16:00which might be a relief for you, or might not.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02I don't know, maybe you've got a good answer there.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04I'm going to...
0:16:04 > 0:16:06basically just going to try and beat Kitty's score now.
0:16:06 > 0:16:07SHE GASPS
0:16:07 > 0:16:09I'm going to say Genk.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Now, there's no call for that. LAUGHTER
0:16:13 > 0:16:15- You're going to say Genk?- Yes.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Genk?
0:16:17 > 0:16:19And so am I - Genk. LAUGHTER
0:16:23 > 0:16:25- Ooh. - KITTY LAUGHS
0:16:25 > 0:16:27See, that's what happens when you say Genk -
0:16:27 > 0:16:30scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 118.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- RICHARD:- Gent would have scored you 2 points.- Of course.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37Gent. There is a Genk as well, but it's a different club.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39As soon as you said Genk, I thought, "Yeah, absolutely,"
0:16:39 > 0:16:41but there's two different sides.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43A few pointless answers here.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45You would have got a pointless answer if you said Sevilla,
0:16:45 > 0:16:47the Spanish side.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49A pointless answer for BATE Borisov or Dinamo Zagreb.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51All of those would have been pointless answers.
0:16:51 > 0:16:541 point for Shakhtar Donetsk, Borussia Monchengladbach, Malmo.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Maccabi Tel Aviv and Astana.
0:16:57 > 0:17:002 points for Gent and for Galatasaray.
0:17:00 > 0:17:01Let's take a look at the top three,
0:17:01 > 0:17:04the ones the most of our 100 people said.
0:17:04 > 0:17:05You would have got...
0:17:10 > 0:17:13Look at that 74-74 draw.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15- That's a London derby, isn't it? - LAUGHTER
0:17:15 > 0:17:18Thanks very much indeed, Richard. We are at the end of our first round,
0:17:18 > 0:17:20and we have to say goodbye to one of our pairs.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24I can't bear it, Martina and Eileen, it is you we have to send home.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Far too soon. I had you down as finalists.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29- So did we.- I'm going to lay my cards on the table now -
0:17:29 > 0:17:31I thought you were going to go all the way. I'm so sorry.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Far too soon to be saying goodbye.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35It's been lovely having you on both shows.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37- Thank you so much for playing, Martina and Eileen.- Thank you.
0:17:37 > 0:17:38APPLAUSE
0:17:40 > 0:17:43But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:17:43 > 0:17:44APPLAUSE
0:17:49 > 0:17:51And look at that - suddenly we're just down to three pairs.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54I don't know how that happened, but at the end of this round,
0:17:54 > 0:17:56I have a hunch we're going to be down to two.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Which pair will be leaving us, I wonder?
0:17:59 > 0:18:00Well, congratulations, Graham,
0:18:00 > 0:18:02our lovely lowest scorer in that round.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06Olympiacos, I mean, fantastic work there.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08But anyway. Here we all are. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Our category for Round Two today...
0:18:13 > 0:18:15Could you all decide, in your pairs, who's going to go first,
0:18:15 > 0:18:17who's going to go second?
0:18:17 > 0:18:20Whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24OK.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26And the question concerns...
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Richard?
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Yeah, on each board we're going to show you the name
0:18:32 > 0:18:34of six UK Top 40 singles that were hits for duos.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37We're going to give you the initials of those duos as well.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Can you give us the most obscure duo you can find, please?
0:18:39 > 0:18:4212 in all to have a go at at home, so very best of luck.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44So we're looking for the duetting artists
0:18:44 > 0:18:45who had hits with these songs.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47And here is our first board of six.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48We have...
0:19:06 > 0:19:08I shall read those all again.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28- Kitty.- Hello.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30How are you finding these duets?
0:19:30 > 0:19:31Um...
0:19:31 > 0:19:35there's a couple up there that I think I know.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38The difficulty is, which is going to be the most obscure?
0:19:40 > 0:19:43I am going to have a go at the bottom one,
0:19:43 > 0:19:45Baby It's Cold Outside.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47And say Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews, says Kitty.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:19:53 > 0:19:54It's right.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Still going down, look at that.
0:19:59 > 0:20:0027. Not bad.
0:20:00 > 0:20:0427 for Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06A Christmas hit, yeah,
0:20:06 > 0:20:08for Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews from Catatonia.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10She's brilliant, Cerys Matthews.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12- She's very, very good, yeah. - Huge fan of hers.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14- Now, then, Catherine.- Yes.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17How did you find these duets?
0:20:17 > 0:20:18Quite tricky.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21I think the fifth one down -
0:20:21 > 0:20:24I'm not sure, but I think it might be
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin
0:20:28 > 0:20:30Let's see if that's right,
0:20:30 > 0:20:32let's see how many of our 100 people went for that.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36It is absolutely them, Catherine.
0:20:36 > 0:20:3927 is our only score at this point,
0:20:39 > 0:20:41and you zip past that.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43Very well done indeed.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin.
0:20:46 > 0:20:47Great answer, Catherine.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49He originally recorded it with Brigitte Bardot,
0:20:49 > 0:20:52but that wasn't released till many years later.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Largely cos she was married at the time of recording
0:20:54 > 0:20:56and it was felt to be, um...you know,
0:20:56 > 0:20:58a little close to the bone.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00- It was felt to be rather racy, wasn't it?- Yeah.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Do you know what? Even to this day, it is quite racy.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04LAUGHTER There we are.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Bob.
0:21:06 > 0:21:07This board's all yours.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Would you like to go through it and fill in all the blanks?
0:21:09 > 0:21:14I think the top one is Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder.
0:21:14 > 0:21:15Don't know the second one.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Somethin' Stupid is Nancy Sinatra and Frank Sinatra.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22You're The One That I Want is John Travolta
0:21:22 > 0:21:24and Olivia Neutron...
0:21:24 > 0:21:28- Olivia Newton-John. - ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:21:28 > 0:21:29Neutron bomb? LAUGHTER
0:21:32 > 0:21:36I'll go for the oldest one, Somethin' Stupid,
0:21:36 > 0:21:37Nancy Sinatra and Frank Sinatra.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Nancy Sinatra and Frank Sinatra, says Bob.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41Let's see if that's right,
0:21:41 > 0:21:43let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:21:48 > 0:21:49Well, look at that.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51APPLAUSE
0:21:51 > 0:21:52Not bad at all.
0:21:53 > 0:21:5635 for Nancy Sinatra and Frank Sinatra.
0:21:56 > 0:21:57Yeah, a number one single.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Also number one for Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman
0:22:00 > 0:22:01with the same song, many years later.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05You're the One That I Want is John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08And that would have scored 72 points.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10Ebony and Ivory, you are quite right,
0:22:10 > 0:22:11was Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13You went for the best one of the ones you knew,
0:22:13 > 0:22:14cos that would have scored you 40.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17This last one, two of the biggest stars of the 21st-century.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Two of the biggest-selling music acts of the last 20-odd years.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23- Do you know it? - Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Correct. But it's the smallest answer on
0:22:25 > 0:22:27the board, 4 points, well done if you said that.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30There we go. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.
0:22:32 > 0:22:3512. Well done, Catherine. I'd say Catherine and Millsy
0:22:35 > 0:22:37are looking like a shoe-in on the back of that.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Then we travel up to 27, where we find Kitty and Al,
0:22:40 > 0:22:42up to 35 where we find Bob and Graham.
0:22:42 > 0:22:43Now, Graham...
0:22:43 > 0:22:45you'll get the new board.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Make sure you force yourself to find a nice, low score.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50A nice, obscure answer there. Best of luck with that.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52We're going to come back down the line now.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:22:56 > 0:23:00OK, let's put six more duets up on the board.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02And here they come.
0:23:02 > 0:23:03We have...
0:23:23 > 0:23:25I am going to read those all one last time.
0:23:48 > 0:23:49So, Graham...
0:23:49 > 0:23:51it comes to you.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53You're the high scorers at the moment.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55I know three of them.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58And I think possibly the lowest score of those
0:23:58 > 0:23:59will be the bottom one,
0:23:59 > 0:24:01Islands in the Stream.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05And I'm going to say Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers, says Graham.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09No red line for you, you're the highest scorers.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11But let's see how many of our 100 people went for them,
0:24:11 > 0:24:12Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Look at that - absolutely right.
0:24:20 > 0:24:21APPLAUSE
0:24:24 > 0:24:2671 is your total, Graham.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29We also used that, didn't we, we had a round of misheard lyrics?
0:24:29 > 0:24:31And the misheard lyric for that, if you listen to it,
0:24:31 > 0:24:34- is "islands industry". - Oh, yeah, yeah.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36And if you listen to that song with "islands industry",
0:24:36 > 0:24:38it becomes a very different song.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Thank you very much, Richard.
0:24:40 > 0:24:41Now, then, Millsy.
0:24:42 > 0:24:46I know a couple, but I think they're probably very high scorers.
0:24:46 > 0:24:50I'm going to go with Empire State of Mind,
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Jay-Z and Alicia Keys.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54Jay-Z and Alicia Keys, says Millsy.
0:24:54 > 0:24:55Here is your red line.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57If you can get below that with Jay-Z and Alicia Keys,
0:24:57 > 0:24:59you're through to the next round.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01Who would have thought that JZ stood for Jay-Z(?)
0:25:01 > 0:25:03LAUGHTER Isn't that extraordinary?!
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:25:09 > 0:25:10Absolutely right.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12And you are into the head-to-head. Well done.
0:25:12 > 0:25:13APPLAUSE
0:25:16 > 0:25:1826 is your score, taking your total up to 38.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24That's two nations with a common language, isn't it, Jay-Z and JZ?
0:25:24 > 0:25:25Thanks very much.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Now, then, Al.
0:25:27 > 0:25:28You are on 27.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Your target is 43 or less.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33Do you fancy talking us through the board and filling in the blanks?
0:25:33 > 0:25:36Yeah. Don't Go Breaking My Heart, Elton John and Kiki Dee.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38I Got You Babe is Sonny and Cher.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40I Just Can't Stop Loving You, I think,
0:25:40 > 0:25:42is Michael Jackson and someone,
0:25:42 > 0:25:44but I can't think who the other person is.
0:25:44 > 0:25:45I am going to say
0:25:45 > 0:25:47I've Had the Time of My Life,
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Bill Medley, Jennifer Warnes.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes, says Al.
0:25:52 > 0:25:53Here is your red line.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Get below that, you're through to the head-to-head.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58How many of our 100 people said Bill Medley, Jennifer Warnes?
0:26:01 > 0:26:02It's right.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07And you're through, well done.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09Look at that, that's a great answer! APPLAUSE
0:26:09 > 0:26:126, the lowest score of the whole round.
0:26:12 > 0:26:13The best till last there, Al.
0:26:13 > 0:26:1533 is your total. Very well done.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17That's a terrific answer,
0:26:17 > 0:26:19well played, from Dirty Dancing, of course, that one.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22Elton John and Kiki Dee up the top there is a big scorer,
0:26:22 > 0:26:24unsurprisingly.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27Would have scored you 56.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29We'll do S and C, which is Sonny and Cher.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32I Got You Babe for 65.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35It is Michael Jackson, and it's the other one that makes this
0:26:35 > 0:26:37a difficult answer, makes it a very low-scoring answer.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39It's Siedah Garrett.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Michael Jackson and Siedah Garrett, that would have scored you 2 points.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44Very well done if you said that.
0:26:44 > 0:26:45Thank you very much indeed.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47So at the end of our second round,
0:26:47 > 0:26:50the pair we send home with their high score of 71,
0:26:50 > 0:26:53it's our other returning pair, Graham and Bob.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55I'm so sorry. Oh!
0:26:55 > 0:26:58It's not that high a score either, 71.
0:26:58 > 0:26:59But there you are - it shows that you can leave
0:26:59 > 0:27:01with your heads held high.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Thanks so much for playing, Graham and Bob. Wonderful.
0:27:03 > 0:27:04APPLAUSE
0:27:06 > 0:27:09But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17Congratulations, Kitty and Al, Millsy and Catherine.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20You are now one step closer to the final and a chance to
0:27:20 > 0:27:22play for our jackpot, which currently stands at...
0:27:22 > 0:27:23CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:27:28 > 0:27:31So we have made it through to the sunlit uplands of the head-to-head,
0:27:31 > 0:27:34which means you can now confer before you give your answers.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37First player to win two questions, as you know,
0:27:37 > 0:27:39will be going through to the final to pay for that jackpot.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42Well, we've had good answers. Nice, low scores from both pairs.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Now you can put your wits together, this should be very evenly matched.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56Here is your first question.
0:27:56 > 0:27:57And it concerns...
0:28:02 > 0:28:04- Richard.- Yes, we're going to show five pictures now
0:28:04 > 0:28:06of animals whose names are misleading.
0:28:06 > 0:28:07But what are those names, please?
0:28:07 > 0:28:09We're going to give you a few clues to help you out.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11Thank you very much. Let's reveal our five
0:28:11 > 0:28:14Animals With Misleading Names, and here they come. We have got...
0:28:44 > 0:28:47There we go, five Animals With Misleading Names.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50Kitty and Al will go first.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52THEY CONFER
0:29:02 > 0:29:06We are going to go for C, horny toad.
0:29:06 > 0:29:07Horny Toad?
0:29:07 > 0:29:09C, horny toad.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12Now then, Millsy and Catherine...
0:29:13 > 0:29:15..that board's all yours. Talk us through
0:29:15 > 0:29:17the remaining misleading animals.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20We think A is mountain goat.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22B, we think, is sea cucumber.
0:29:22 > 0:29:25D, we think, is slow worm.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27And E, we think, is electric eel.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29(Which one...?)
0:29:29 > 0:29:30THEY CONFER
0:29:32 > 0:29:35OK, we'd like to go for B, sea cucumber.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37OK, B, sea cucumber.
0:29:37 > 0:29:39So we have horny toad and we have sea cucumber,
0:29:39 > 0:29:41which is B, if you understand what I am saying.
0:29:41 > 0:29:42LAUGHTER
0:29:42 > 0:29:44Now, Kitty and Al went for horny toad.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:29:49 > 0:29:50It's right.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00Not bad at all.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04Now, then, Millsy and Catherine have gone for sea cucumber for B.
0:30:04 > 0:30:05Let's see if that's right,
0:30:05 > 0:30:08let's see how many of our 100 people said sea cucumber.
0:30:10 > 0:30:11It's right.
0:30:16 > 0:30:1732 for sea cucumber.
0:30:17 > 0:30:18APPLAUSE
0:30:18 > 0:30:21Which means, very well done, Kitty and Al -
0:30:21 > 0:30:23after one question, you're up 1-0.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25Yeah, of course, not a cucumber and not a toad -
0:30:25 > 0:30:28although one does live in the sea and the other one is horny...
0:30:29 > 0:30:30..as you can see.
0:30:30 > 0:30:34- Mm.- A is the mountain goat. Isn't that lovely photo?
0:30:34 > 0:30:38- Is that a real photograph?- Yeah. Of a... It's a stunt goat.
0:30:38 > 0:30:41- Oh, I see, yes. I was going to say. - Professional stunt mountain goat.
0:30:41 > 0:30:42Mountain goats are not really goats.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45They do live on mountains, they're not really goats, though.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48They're sort of a mix of goats and antelopes.
0:30:48 > 0:30:5192 points, though. That's a big score.
0:30:51 > 0:30:52D is, of course, the slow worm,
0:30:52 > 0:30:56which is neither a worm nor a snake, but a lizard. Legless lizard.
0:30:56 > 0:30:5834 points for that.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02And the electric eel, which is not an eel.
0:31:02 > 0:31:0465 points for that.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06Thanks very much, Richard. Here comes your second question -
0:31:06 > 0:31:08Millsy and Catherine, you get to answer this one first,
0:31:08 > 0:31:11but you have to win it, as well, to stay in the game. So, good luck.
0:31:11 > 0:31:13Second question today is all about...
0:31:16 > 0:31:20- Richard.- Yeah, five anagrams, now, of capital cities from Asia.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22Can you unscramble these, please?
0:31:22 > 0:31:24OK, let's reveal our five anagrams - and here they come.
0:31:24 > 0:31:25We've got...
0:31:36 > 0:31:38There we are. Millsy and Catherine, you will go first.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40Feel free to confer.
0:31:42 > 0:31:43(Louse is Seoul...)
0:31:45 > 0:31:46(Which one of those do you...?)
0:31:48 > 0:31:49(Gin Jibe.)
0:31:49 > 0:31:52OK, we'd like to say Beijing. So, the third one down, please.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55OK, Gin Jibe - Beijing say Millsy and Catherine.
0:31:55 > 0:31:59Now, then, Kitty and Al, the board's all yours.
0:31:59 > 0:32:01Talk us through those anagrams.
0:32:01 > 0:32:02Um...
0:32:02 > 0:32:05We think Animal is Manila,
0:32:05 > 0:32:09Rap Is Gone we think is Singapore,
0:32:09 > 0:32:12and then Louse us we think is Seoul.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14We're not sure on Test Hank.
0:32:14 > 0:32:17I think we're going to choose Manila as our answer.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19OK, Manila. Animal, Manila.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21So, we have Beijing and we have Manila.
0:32:21 > 0:32:23Millsy and Catherine said Beijing.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:32:28 > 0:32:29It's right.
0:32:32 > 0:32:3560. APPLAUSE
0:32:35 > 0:32:3760 for Beijing.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40Kitty and Al, meanwhile, have gone for Manila.
0:32:40 > 0:32:41Let's see if that's right,
0:32:41 > 0:32:43let's see how many of our 100 people said Manila.
0:32:45 > 0:32:46It is right...
0:32:47 > 0:32:50..and it wins you the point, look at that. Wow, and how!
0:32:50 > 0:32:52Look at that, 41 for Manila. APPLAUSE
0:32:52 > 0:32:55Which means, Kitty and Al, very well done indeed,
0:32:55 > 0:32:58after only two questions, you're straight through to the final 2-0.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01Very nicely done. Yeah, the capital of the Philippines, Manila.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03You're right about the bottom one, that is Seoul,
0:33:03 > 0:33:05capital of South Korea.
0:33:05 > 0:33:0673 points for that.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09Rap Is Gone, it's a better answer than Manila,
0:33:09 > 0:33:11but you won the point anyway - Rap Is Gone was Singapore,
0:33:11 > 0:33:14and it would have scored you 19 points.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17The best answer is Test Hank. It's the capital of Uzbekistan.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19- Tashkent.- Tashkent.
0:33:19 > 0:33:23That would have scored you 4 points. Very well done if you said that.
0:33:23 > 0:33:24Thank you very much indeed.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round -
0:33:26 > 0:33:29I'm afraid, Millsy and Catherine, it is you. It's good news, really,
0:33:29 > 0:33:31because it means you get a second bite at the cherry.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33We'll get to see you again next time. Look forward to that
0:33:33 > 0:33:35very much indeed. Maybe you can go one step further then -
0:33:35 > 0:33:38but in the meantime, thank you very much indeed, Millsy and Catherine.
0:33:38 > 0:33:39APPLAUSE
0:33:41 > 0:33:44For Kitty and Al, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51Congratulations, Kitty and Al.
0:33:51 > 0:33:52You have finished ahead of the pack
0:33:52 > 0:33:55and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,
0:34:03 > 0:34:07and at the end of today's show the jackpot is standing at £3,000.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09There it is. APPLAUSE
0:34:11 > 0:34:14What a long way we've come from Genk.
0:34:16 > 0:34:17Were you worried?
0:34:17 > 0:34:18Wobbly foundations there -
0:34:18 > 0:34:21but, hey, look at this! 2-0 in the head-to-head.
0:34:21 > 0:34:25Very exciting indeed, and a really exciting jackpot, as well.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27As always, you get to choose your category
0:34:27 > 0:34:28from the four we put up on the board.
0:34:28 > 0:34:30We just have to hope there's something
0:34:30 > 0:34:31you quite like the look of up there.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34Best of luck. Today's categories look like this. We've got...
0:34:42 > 0:34:44- I think I'd probably rule out Russia straightaway.- Yeah.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47- Do you think?- Crime Writers I would know nothing about.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49No, I don't read crime, really.
0:34:49 > 0:34:50Latin American Singers,
0:34:50 > 0:34:53I can only think of one off the top of my head,
0:34:53 > 0:34:54so it's looking like it's going to be...
0:34:54 > 0:34:58- Shall we go for the Seans? - Acting Seans. Yeah.- Acting Seans.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00OK, Acting Seans.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02I do like it when people choose their category
0:35:02 > 0:35:04by going through all of them saying, "Definitely not that,
0:35:04 > 0:35:06"definitely not that, definitely not that,"
0:35:06 > 0:35:08and then realising there's only one left.
0:35:08 > 0:35:09So, therefore that has to be the one.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11Yeah, Acting Seans, very best of luck.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14Looking for any feature film made for cinema release
0:35:14 > 0:35:18for which any of the following three are credited as acting in, please.
0:35:18 > 0:35:19We're looking for...
0:35:24 > 0:35:26That's up to February 2016 for all of those,
0:35:26 > 0:35:27and according to IMDB -
0:35:27 > 0:35:30so, any feature film made for cinema release
0:35:30 > 0:35:32for which one of these three gentleman
0:35:32 > 0:35:34has received an acting credit. Best of luck.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36Thanks very much indeed. Now, as always,
0:35:36 > 0:35:38you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40All you need to win that jackpot
0:35:40 > 0:35:43is for just one of those answers to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:35:43 > 0:35:46- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock. There they are.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48Your time starts now.
0:35:48 > 0:35:50Um...
0:35:50 > 0:35:52Sean Bean was obviously in Lord Of The Rings,
0:35:52 > 0:35:54Fellowship Of The Ring.
0:35:54 > 0:35:56One of the James Bond films.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58- Was it GoldenEye?- Yes, I think so.
0:35:58 > 0:36:03Sean Penn was in one where he played somebody that had a child...
0:36:03 > 0:36:07- Was he in Milk?- Yes, he was in Milk, but I don't...- Summer Of Sam.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09- I Am Sam. I Am Sam. - I Am Sam, that's the one.
0:36:09 > 0:36:10Yeah, that might be a good one.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13- Sean Connery - something like League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen.- Maybe.
0:36:13 > 0:36:16- Maybe, that's a good one. - Or Highlander. Too obvious?
0:36:16 > 0:36:19I don't know - I didn't think of Highlander!
0:36:19 > 0:36:22- Um... - I think I Am Sam, maybe, is one...
0:36:22 > 0:36:25- I Am Sam from Sean Penn.- Yeah.- Um...
0:36:25 > 0:36:28Can you think of any other Sean Beans?
0:36:30 > 0:36:32I can only think of him as Boromir.
0:36:32 > 0:36:33THEY LAUGH
0:36:33 > 0:36:36- No, it's gone. I can't think of any more.- 10 seconds left.
0:36:36 > 0:36:38Sean Connerys, then. Two Sean Connerys...
0:36:38 > 0:36:41League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Highlander for Sean Connery?
0:36:41 > 0:36:43- Yeah, OK.- Yeah?- Yeah.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46OK, sounds like you've reached your decision, as time runs out.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49There is the minute up. Let's have those answers.
0:36:49 > 0:36:53- For Sean Penn, we're going to say I Am Sam.- I Am Sam.
0:36:53 > 0:36:57- And for Sean Connery, we'll say Highlander...- Highlander.
0:36:57 > 0:36:58And also for Sean Connery
0:36:58 > 0:37:00we will say League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
0:37:00 > 0:37:01League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
0:37:01 > 0:37:04Now, of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:37:04 > 0:37:07- What you think?- I Am Sam?- I Am Sam. - I Am Sam goes last.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09- Least likely to be pointless? - Highlander, probably.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Highlander we'll put first.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13OK, well, let's put those answers up on the board
0:37:13 > 0:37:16in that order, then - and here they are.
0:37:16 > 0:37:17We've got Highlander,
0:37:17 > 0:37:19we've got The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen
0:37:19 > 0:37:20and we have got I Am Sam.
0:37:20 > 0:37:24Well, very best of luck. Three good answers on the board there.
0:37:24 > 0:37:28Now, if one of these turns out to be pointless and wins you that jackpot,
0:37:28 > 0:37:30you will leave with £3,000. What will you do with that?
0:37:30 > 0:37:32Kitty, you first.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35Well, we... In August, we're going to Las Vegas
0:37:35 > 0:37:38to see our friends Emma and JP get married,
0:37:38 > 0:37:40and I am Sam, actually, can be credited to Emma,
0:37:40 > 0:37:42because she made me watch that in the uni,
0:37:42 > 0:37:44- we're friends from uni, so... - Lovely.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47- ..I can credit Emma on that one. - So, it will go towards that.- Yes.
0:37:47 > 0:37:48Al, how about you?
0:37:48 > 0:37:51I've been wanting to redecorate the front room for ages,
0:37:51 > 0:37:53so I will take part of that to...
0:37:53 > 0:37:56- There we go - Las Vegas and the front room.- Yeah.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59- But I want my helicopter ride! - Yeah, yeah.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01Well, if only there was a way in Vegas
0:38:01 > 0:38:04you could make that money go further... I can't think of...
0:38:04 > 0:38:09- Ah.- No.- No? No, it's gone. Well, very best of luck.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11Your first answer was Highlander.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13In this case, we were looking for Sean Connery films.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16This was the one you thought was least likely to be pointless -
0:38:16 > 0:38:18but let's find out - if it is pointless, it wins you £3,000.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21How many of our 100 people named Highlander?
0:38:25 > 0:38:27- Well, it's right.- Phew!
0:38:27 > 0:38:28Down it goes. Highlander.
0:38:28 > 0:38:31If this goes all the way down to 0, you will leave here with £3,000.
0:38:31 > 0:38:33Down it goes, through the 20s and into the teens,
0:38:33 > 0:38:35down it goes into single figures -
0:38:35 > 0:38:369. There we are.
0:38:36 > 0:38:37APPLAUSE
0:38:37 > 0:38:38You stop at 9.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43Not a bad score by any stretch of the imagination.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45Sadly, not a pointless answer, though.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47So, we move on to your next answer,
0:38:47 > 0:38:49which was The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
0:38:49 > 0:38:52Once again we're looking for Sean Connery films.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54It has to be pointless, though, for you to win that jackpot.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56£3,000 riding on it.
0:38:56 > 0:38:59How many people said The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen?
0:39:02 > 0:39:03It's right again.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06Your first answer, Highlander, took us all the way down to 9.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen now takes us down
0:39:09 > 0:39:11into the teens, down we go, still going down -
0:39:11 > 0:39:12into single figures, passes 9,
0:39:12 > 0:39:14down it goes, still going down - to 2.
0:39:14 > 0:39:16APPLAUSE
0:39:20 > 0:39:23- Very well done indeed. That's a fantastic leap.- That's unexpected.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26Down from 9 to 2. These scores are getting better and better.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28You've ordered this perfectly.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Sadly, though, still not a pointless answer,
0:39:30 > 0:39:33which means everything is now riding on I Am Sam,
0:39:33 > 0:39:34your third and final answer -
0:39:34 > 0:39:36the one you thought was probably your best shot
0:39:36 > 0:39:37at a pointless answer.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40In this case, we're looking for Sean Penn films.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43To win £3,000, though, it has to be pointless answer.
0:39:43 > 0:39:47I Am Sam - how many of our 100 people said it? Is it pointless?
0:39:51 > 0:39:52Well, it's right -
0:39:52 > 0:39:54your third correct answer.
0:39:54 > 0:39:56Highlander, your first answer, took us down to 9.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, your second answer,
0:39:58 > 0:40:00took us down to 2.
0:40:00 > 0:40:01I Am Sam passes 9,
0:40:01 > 0:40:03down it goes.
0:40:03 > 0:40:04Oh, and it passes 2, into 1!
0:40:04 > 0:40:06APPLAUSE
0:40:06 > 0:40:08O-o-ohh!
0:40:11 > 0:40:16Oh, I'm so sorry, that is so harsh. One person said I Am Sam.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18- I hate that person.- Oh...
0:40:18 > 0:40:22- Unfortunately, it was your old university friend.- It was!
0:40:23 > 0:40:26Oh, I'm so sorry. Very well played, though, on this last round.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28Three great scores, there.
0:40:28 > 0:40:31Sadly, you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer,
0:40:31 > 0:40:33so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £3,000.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36That will roll over on to the next show - but what a performance,
0:40:36 > 0:40:37right the way across the show,
0:40:37 > 0:40:39lots to be proud of there.
0:40:39 > 0:40:40It's been great having you here -
0:40:40 > 0:40:42and you get to take home a Pointless trophy each,
0:40:42 > 0:40:44so very, very well done. APPLAUSE
0:40:47 > 0:40:50That was a pretty good performance, wasn't it? Very, very well played.
0:40:50 > 0:40:51The first rule of film rounds...
0:40:51 > 0:40:53actually, the first rule of film rounds
0:40:53 > 0:40:54is don't go for a film rounds,
0:40:54 > 0:40:57but the second rule of film rounds is think about sequels,
0:40:57 > 0:41:01Highlander 2 - The Quickening was a pointless answer.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03ALL GROAN
0:41:03 > 0:41:05So, really, really unlucky. Sorry about that.
0:41:05 > 0:41:06Let's take a look at this.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09Some other big films here, some big films in all of these categories.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11We'll start with Sean Penn.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15Carlito's Way, in which he is brilliant, by the way,
0:41:15 > 0:41:16is a pointless answer.
0:41:16 > 0:41:17Sweet And Lowdown, Woody Allen film -
0:41:17 > 0:41:20always go for Woody Allen films. The Game is a pointless answer,
0:41:20 > 0:41:22The Tree Of Life - all of his films are pointless answers
0:41:22 > 0:41:24apart from Milk, which you mentioned, Mystic River,
0:41:24 > 0:41:27Dead Man Walking, 21 Grams, then Shanghai Surprise,
0:41:27 > 0:41:30We're No Angels, The Interpreter, Thin Red Line, Bad Boys,
0:41:30 > 0:41:33I Am Sam, The Gunman and Fair Game - all of those scored points,
0:41:33 > 0:41:34everything else was a pointless answer.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37I always think, with Sean Penn, if you went out for dinner with him,
0:41:37 > 0:41:39- it might be quite hard work. - I think he might be.
0:41:39 > 0:41:41- Do you know what I mean? - Quite intense.- I think so -
0:41:41 > 0:41:44whereas this next gentleman, I would love to go out to dinner with.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46- Sean Bean. I think that might be more fun.- Mm.
0:41:46 > 0:41:48He's got some pointless answers, too.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief was a pointless answer -
0:41:55 > 0:41:57everything there, apart from the Lord Of The Rings -
0:41:57 > 0:42:00The Fellowship of the Ring, that would have scored you points.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02GoldenEye would have scored points, as well, and Patriot Games,
0:42:02 > 0:42:05and 1 point for The Hitcher, The Marsh and Equilibrium,
0:42:05 > 0:42:08the Lord of the Rings: The Return Of The King, Black Beauty,
0:42:08 > 0:42:09When Saturday Comes and National Treasure -
0:42:09 > 0:42:11they would have scored 1 point.
0:42:11 > 0:42:13Everything else a pointless answer here.
0:42:13 > 0:42:16Sean Connery, I think, probably fun, again, to go out for dinner with.
0:42:16 > 0:42:17I would have thought.
0:42:17 > 0:42:18Meteor, Never Say Never Again,
0:42:18 > 0:42:21where he comes back - it's an unofficial James Bond film,
0:42:21 > 0:42:22that was a pointless answer.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24The Russia House, a pointless answer, Time Bandits, also.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27A Bridge Too Far was pointless, A Good Man In Africa,
0:42:27 > 0:42:29Finding Forrester, First Knight was a pointless answer,
0:42:29 > 0:42:32Murder On The Orient Express, a pointless answer.
0:42:32 > 0:42:34The Man With The Deadly Lens - I've not heard of that film,
0:42:34 > 0:42:36- but it sounds terrible, doesn't it?- Yeah, yeah.
0:42:36 > 0:42:39The Man With The Deadly Lens. It was a pointless answer, anyway.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Very well done if you got any of those at home.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43A terrific performance all the way through today's show,
0:42:43 > 0:42:44and a great jackpot round, as well.
0:42:44 > 0:42:46Sorry we can't send you home with the money.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49Thanks very much indeed, Richard, and thanks, Kitty and Al,
0:42:49 > 0:42:52and so sorry you didn't win the jackpot today.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54That means it rolls over onto the next show
0:42:54 > 0:42:56when we will be playing for £4,000.
0:42:56 > 0:42:58APPLAUSE
0:43:00 > 0:43:01Join us then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:01 > 0:43:04- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:04 > 0:43:05..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:43:05 > 0:43:08APPLAUSE
