0:00:17 > 0:00:20CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:00:20 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed. Hello. I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome

0:00:23 > 0:00:26to Pointless, the show where the more obscure your knowledge,

0:00:26 > 0:00:29the better your chances of winning. Let's meet today's players.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35And couple number one.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38Hello, I'm Katie and this is my dad and we're from Nantwich in Cheshire.

0:00:38 > 0:00:39Couple number two.

0:00:39 > 0:00:40Hi, I'm Alan.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43This is my partner Alison and we're from sunny South Yorkshire.

0:00:43 > 0:00:44And couple number three.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46Hi, I'm James and this is my friend Nash

0:00:46 > 0:00:48and we're from Leicester, where we're PhD students.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50And finally, couple number four.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52I'm Millsy from London

0:00:52 > 0:00:54and this is my friend Catherine from Stockton-on-Tees.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56And these are today's contestants.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02Thank you very much, all of you. A very warm welcome to Pointless.

0:01:02 > 0:01:04Great to have you here. We'll chat to each of you, of course,

0:01:04 > 0:01:06throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12If he were a Hitchcock film, he'd be The Man Who Knew Too Much.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15I'd be The 39 Steps, cos that's what I've got to stand on to look him in the eye.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18It's my Pointless friend - it's Richard.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Hiya. Hi, everybody.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22Good afternoon.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25- Good afternoon to you, sir. - And good afternoon.- How are you?

0:01:25 > 0:01:28- Very well, thank you.- Excellent. - How are you?- All right, thank you.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30- OK, good.- Thank you. - I never get to ask you...

0:01:30 > 0:01:34- Well, you do sometimes.- I know. I have to be really quick, though, cos you just won't...

0:01:34 > 0:01:36You won't hear of it.

0:01:36 > 0:01:37Well, maybe I'm hiding something.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Maybe I'm not all right. Only one returning pair from the last show -

0:01:40 > 0:01:43it's Catherine and Millsy on podium four, who got all the way through

0:01:43 > 0:01:45to the head-to-head - which is pretty impressive,

0:01:45 > 0:01:48but then a couple of these guys are doing PhDs, apparently.

0:01:48 > 0:01:50- I know.- How about that?- What about that?

0:01:50 > 0:01:52- Might as well all go home, right? - I know.- Now, Round One...

0:01:52 > 0:01:54- Yeah?- ..I'm going to enjoy very much.- Mm.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57And the audience, I think, will enjoy as well.

0:01:57 > 0:01:58Actually, you might even enjoy it.

0:01:58 > 0:02:02- OK.- But Round One, I've got some stuff for you to do.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04- Excellent.- Yeah.- Good stuff. Thanks very much.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08Now, Kitty and Al didn't win the jackpot last time, which means we add another £1,000 to that.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11So today's jackpot starts off at...

0:02:12 > 0:02:14There we are.

0:02:14 > 0:02:18That's exciting. Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:23 > 0:02:25So, remember this - the pair with the highest score

0:02:25 > 0:02:28will be eliminated at the end of each round.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31The pair with the highest score. So make sure your scores are low.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33No conferring till we get to the head-to-head round.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37Best of luck to all four pairs. Our first category today is...

0:02:37 > 0:02:40There we go. It's a Languages round.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,

0:02:42 > 0:02:44who's going to go second?

0:02:44 > 0:02:47And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53OK, and the question concerns...

0:02:56 > 0:02:58Oh, fun! Around Town In Other Languages.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00Oh, I wondered what you were going to say then!

0:03:02 > 0:03:05As you know, I often like making you read out things in the...

0:03:05 > 0:03:07French words, German words or Italian words, things like that.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10In this round, you're going to be describing lots of places you might

0:03:10 > 0:03:11find in a typical town,

0:03:11 > 0:03:14but in French, German AND Italian for all of them.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17- Seven on each board.- It'll take forever!- Yeah, it'll be fun, though.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Seven on each board, 14 in all to have a go at at home.

0:03:19 > 0:03:22- Very best of luck and very best of luck.- OK, so we are looking for

0:03:22 > 0:03:27the English translations of these places around town in these various languages. And here they are.

0:03:27 > 0:03:28We have got...

0:04:01 > 0:04:04APPLAUSE Thank you very much indeed. Really.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07Yeah, I've now got to read them again, though.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10So, yeah, good luck with that.

0:04:10 > 0:04:11Oof! Er...

0:04:37 > 0:04:40There we are. Now, Katie, welcome to the show. Great to have you here. What do you do, Katie?

0:04:40 > 0:04:43- I'm a maths teacher at a secondary school.- How long have you been doing that?

0:04:43 > 0:04:48- Well, I'm actually in my training year at the moment but I'm due to start soon.- I see, so PGCE.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50- This is part of the thing.- Yeah, doing a PGCE. Haven't got long left.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52And you do... Two different schools, do you do,

0:04:52 > 0:04:55- or just one?- I've been at one school already so I'm at my second now.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Are you enjoying it? That's the question.- Yeah, it's really good.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00- It's quite challenging, but... - OK.- ..I like working with them.

0:05:00 > 0:05:04- And you'll be teaching right up to 18, will you?- Yeah, ages 11 to 18.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07- Further maths?- Yeah.- All the maths!

0:05:07 > 0:05:09- All the maths.- OK.- Lots of maths. - Now, Katie,

0:05:09 > 0:05:12how are we feeling about Languages, then?

0:05:12 > 0:05:14I was a bit nervous when I saw it come up,

0:05:14 > 0:05:17but I think my GCSE French is coming back to me.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Good.

0:05:19 > 0:05:20Your father grimaced there.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22I don't know if that was involuntary or just...

0:05:22 > 0:05:25- He's the best one out of the two of us.- OK.

0:05:25 > 0:05:30I wasn't sure if it was a risk, but I will go for la boulangerie

0:05:30 > 0:05:32and say that's a bakery.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34A bakery. OK, let's see if that's right and let's see how many

0:05:34 > 0:05:37of our 100 people said "bakery" for "la boulangerie".

0:05:40 > 0:05:41It's right.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46APPLAUSE What about that? 49.

0:05:46 > 0:05:47Very well done, Katie.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49- Good start to the round. - Good start, Katie.

0:05:49 > 0:05:51I thought that might be a little bit higher, boulangerie.

0:05:51 > 0:05:55- That's one of those first words we learn in French, isn't it, for some reason?- It is.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Alison, welcome here, from South Yorkshire.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Whereabouts in South Yorkshire?

0:05:59 > 0:06:00Just outside Doncaster.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04Very nice. And what keeps you busy there, Alison?

0:06:04 > 0:06:07I'm a sort of semiretired accountant.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10And semiretirement - is that you just sort of gently...

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Mm, that's the theory, yes.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15Gently winding down, but you're not really. You're still working as hard as you were.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17More or less, but I have plans to change that.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20That's good. Have you made nice plans for other things to do

0:06:20 > 0:06:23- to replace that work?- Yes.

0:06:23 > 0:06:25We enjoy playing sport.

0:06:25 > 0:06:29- Very good.- And enjoy travel, particularly to Europe,

0:06:29 > 0:06:33which ought to be good for this question but I'm not so sure now.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36OK. Alison, what would you like to go for?

0:06:36 > 0:06:41I think I will go for the final one on the list and say library.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43Library, says Alison.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people said library.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54APPLAUSE 53.

0:06:56 > 0:06:5753 for library.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00Very well played. I'll say two things - firstly,

0:07:00 > 0:07:04you can now get human libraries, where you book people out and they tell you their stories.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06They tell you stories they have, which is rather lovely.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09The other thing I will say is, I had my pen in my mouth while you were talking -

0:07:09 > 0:07:13I was concentrating - and it fell out and I've got pen down my top.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16So if you're watching on HD, I apologise for the rest of the show.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19- I've got pen down my top. I'm going to get in such trouble for that. - You are!- Yeah.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22- From me!- No, you'll be all right. - Yeah, cos it's my job to clean your shirts.

0:07:25 > 0:07:26There we are. HE WHISTLES

0:07:26 > 0:07:29Thank you very much.

0:07:29 > 0:07:30Nash, welcome to Pointless.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Great to have you here. Doing your PhD at Leicester?

0:07:32 > 0:07:34Yes, at De Montfort University.

0:07:34 > 0:07:35- In what? What's your...? - In film history.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Looking at the transition from silent to sound film.

0:07:38 > 0:07:42- Oh, now, that's exciting.- That's us. - And are you looking in America,

0:07:42 > 0:07:43in the UK or is it all over Europe?

0:07:43 > 0:07:47It's part of a project that's happening all over, in a bunch of different universities.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50I'm particularly looking at what's happening in the Midlands, which is

0:07:50 > 0:07:53to do with cinemas, distributors, things like that.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Fascinating! So it's not just the films themselves

0:07:55 > 0:07:58- but also the commerce behind them?- Yes, well,

0:07:58 > 0:08:02I'm quite lucky that I don't have to watch too many of the films because they're not great.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05OK. They have the great virtue of being quite short, don't they?

0:08:05 > 0:08:08- That's true. That's true.- Now, Nash,

0:08:08 > 0:08:11what would you like to go for on this board?

0:08:11 > 0:08:15I am going to take a bit of a punt with number four...

0:08:15 > 0:08:17- OK.- ..and say that's a youth hostel.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19There we are. L'auberge de jeunesse.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21Youth hostel, says Nash.

0:08:21 > 0:08:25Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people agree with Nash.

0:08:30 > 0:08:31Very well done.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Look, you've passed our score.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Look at that. Leaving all the others in your wake, Nash.

0:08:36 > 0:08:3713. Very well done.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Great answer, Nash. Very well played.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Famously, Alan Partridge pitched...

0:08:44 > 0:08:4618 years ago, pitched Youth Hostelling With Chris Eubank.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49That was one of the shows he pitched when he pitched Monkey Tennis,

0:08:49 > 0:08:50all that kind of stuff, in that scene.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53And it was literally last year, on Twitter, that someone finally

0:08:53 > 0:08:55broke it to Chris Eubank that that's what happened

0:08:55 > 0:08:58and Chris Eubank said, "You know, every day for the last 18 years,

0:08:58 > 0:09:00"someone has mentioned youth hostelling to me

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- "and I had no idea why." Isn't that amazing?- Hilarious.

0:09:03 > 0:09:07He'd gone 18 years thinking, "It's weird why everyone mentions youth hostelling to me."

0:09:09 > 0:09:12Thank you very much. Now then, Millsy.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15- Welcome back to Pointless.- Hello. - A head-to-header last time.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17Remind us what you do, Millsy.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19I'm an HR director.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21- In London?- In London, yes.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24And what are your interests outside HR?

0:09:24 > 0:09:27Er...with house renovations.

0:09:27 > 0:09:28- Oh, really?- Yeah.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31Did you buy a house, do it up and then sell it on years later?

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Yes. Yes, I'm on my fourth now.

0:09:33 > 0:09:37- Really?- Yeah.- Do you not get more and more attached to these houses?

0:09:37 > 0:09:38Do you upgrade each time?

0:09:38 > 0:09:41That's the idea - to upgrade each time.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Yes, this one is...

0:09:43 > 0:09:46We've knocked down a house and building from scratch.

0:09:46 > 0:09:47It's quite a project.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50Yeah. Right, and when will that be finished?

0:09:50 > 0:09:52- Hopefully, July.- Quite hard to live, I find,

0:09:52 > 0:09:54in a house that's been completely knocked down.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57- Yeah, we're not living in this one at the moment.- I see. Oh, good.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Unless it's got a basement, of course, which is not for the faint-hearted.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Now, Millsy, this board is all yours.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04Do you want to go through it and fill in all our blanks?

0:10:04 > 0:10:08Well, I think the top one is public garden

0:10:08 > 0:10:10and then the next one, a shopping centre?

0:10:10 > 0:10:13Then flats or apartments

0:10:13 > 0:10:15and then train station.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18So I think I'm going to go for the top one, which is public garden.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20A public garden, says Millsy.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Let's see if that's right and let's see how many of our 100 people said public garden.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27It's right.

0:10:29 > 0:10:3170 for public garden.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33There we are.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36Yeah, a park, really, but "public garden" just as acceptable.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39But that's why it's such a high scorer, cos if our 100 said "park",

0:10:39 > 0:10:42that scored points. Le grand magasin?

0:10:42 > 0:10:43Supermarket.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45- It's not a supermarket.- Oh! Ah.

0:10:45 > 0:10:46- Department store.- Ooh.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49Yeah, would have scored you ten points.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51L'appartement - you're quite right - is a flat.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55That would've scored 83. That's the biggest scorer up there.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57- And la gare?- Station.- Station.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00That would have scored 67. So department store the best there.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02- Well done if you said that. - There we are.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05Thank you, Richard. We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at our scores.

0:11:05 > 0:11:0813, Nash, look at that. Nash and James looking very strong contenders

0:11:08 > 0:11:10at this stage for Round Two.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Then we travel quite a long way up to 49,

0:11:12 > 0:11:14where we find Katie and Nigel.

0:11:14 > 0:11:1553 is where we find Alison and Alan.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18And then up to 70, Millsy and Catherine.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21Now, Catherine, you're not way ahead but you know what we need.

0:11:21 > 0:11:25We need a nice low score. We can't be sending you home at the end of this round. Best of luck with that.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players step up to the podium?

0:11:31 > 0:11:35OK, let's put seven more descriptions in different languages

0:11:35 > 0:11:37up on the board, and here they are. We have...

0:12:12 > 0:12:14I shall read those one last time.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46APPLAUSE There we are. Thank you very much.

0:12:49 > 0:12:53I'd just apologise to everyone else in Europe for that.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Now then, Catherine, remember,

0:12:55 > 0:12:58we're looking for these places you'd find around town.

0:12:58 > 0:12:59You need to find a nice low scorer.

0:12:59 > 0:13:03Now, Catherine, remind us what you do first of all.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06I'm a lawyer for a high-street retailer.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08That's right, but this is extraordinary.

0:13:08 > 0:13:12Catherine, you were in the audience for the very first Pointless.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14Yes, that's absolutely true, yes.

0:13:14 > 0:13:16How was it? It must have been interminable!

0:13:16 > 0:13:18Yes, it was fairly long.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21- Yeah.- But I knew instantly it was going to be a huge hit.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23- Aw!- I did, I did.

0:13:23 > 0:13:27And thought, "After a thousand shows or so, I'll come and visit again."

0:13:27 > 0:13:30How extraordinary. We used to have five pairs, of course, didn't we?

0:13:30 > 0:13:32- There were five different pairs. - And it was at the BBC.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Oh, it was at TV Centre!

0:13:38 > 0:13:41It was only seven minutes from my house.

0:13:42 > 0:13:43Oh...

0:13:44 > 0:13:47Now then, Catherine, yes, here is your board.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50Remember, find a nice low-scoring answer.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54I think I might be about to do something completely bonkers.

0:13:54 > 0:13:58- Good!- I think the top one is a factory.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01L'usine. Factory. No red line for you, as you're the high scorers.

0:14:01 > 0:14:05Let's see how many of our 100 people said factory. Fingers crossed.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09It is a factory. Very well done, Catherine.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10Exactly what you needed to do.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15Look at that. 16.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Very well done indeed. Taking your total up to 86.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22Well played. That's exactly how to play the game.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24Especially when you got 70 points in the first round,

0:14:24 > 0:14:26you've got to go for the one that people might not know.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Thanks very much, Richard.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30Now, James, welcome to Pointless.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Also doing a PhD.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34What's your PhD in?

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Mine is about the film director Stanley Kubrick.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39Wow! And how far into your PhD are you?

0:14:39 > 0:14:41This is the second year now.

0:14:42 > 0:14:44I've not got much written, which is...

0:14:44 > 0:14:46I'll admit to the supervisor on TV.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50So... Well, that's OK. But are you teaching as well?

0:14:50 > 0:14:53I am teaching as well. I'm also teaching a Stanley Kubrick module.

0:14:53 > 0:14:57See, that's fun. Now, James, Languages.

0:14:57 > 0:14:58Places Around Town.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01You have the luxury of getting away with 72 or less.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03I'm terrible at languages.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06I'm hoping - and my pronunciation of this will be terrible -

0:15:06 > 0:15:10la boucherie is butcher's.

0:15:10 > 0:15:11La boucherie. Let's see if it's right.

0:15:11 > 0:15:13Let's see where your red line is.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15There it is. Get below that, you're through.

0:15:15 > 0:15:16How many people said butcher?

0:15:20 > 0:15:21It's right.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Very well done indeed, James.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25That's what you needed. 51,

0:15:25 > 0:15:28taking your total up to 64.

0:15:29 > 0:15:32Yeah, ancient Egyptian butchers would wear high heels

0:15:32 > 0:15:35to keep their feet away from the mess on the floor.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Alan...

0:15:38 > 0:15:40Alan, welcome to Pointless.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44- What do you do, Alan?- Well, the last couple of years, I've been retired

0:15:44 > 0:15:48but in a previous life I started and ran a manufacturing business.

0:15:48 > 0:15:49And what did you make?

0:15:49 > 0:15:52We made parts for big ships' engines.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55And presumably you made parts for ships' engines all over the world.

0:15:55 > 0:15:59- We did.- What was the most exotic location you went to on your work?

0:16:01 > 0:16:04South America, maybe - Chile, Argentina.

0:16:04 > 0:16:08Very exciting. Very exciting, and this was your business?

0:16:08 > 0:16:09I was one of the owners, yes.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11That is extraordinary. And you've retired.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13The business still runs, or did you...?

0:16:13 > 0:16:15- No, the business is still thriving. - Excellent.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18Very good. And what do you fill your retirement with?

0:16:18 > 0:16:22- Playing bad golf. - Oh, the best kind of golf!

0:16:22 > 0:16:24There we are, excellent. Now, Alan.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26What about this?

0:16:26 > 0:16:30I think la piscine is the swimming pool.

0:16:30 > 0:16:31Swimming pool, says Alan.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33Now, you are on 53.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35The high scorers at the moment are on 86,

0:16:35 > 0:16:38which means 32 or less is your target.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40That's what it looks like in red-line terms.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43Let's see how many of our 100 people said swimming pool.

0:16:46 > 0:16:47It's right.

0:16:49 > 0:16:50Ooh, 71.

0:16:51 > 0:16:5471 takes your total up to 124.

0:16:54 > 0:16:55You are now our high scorers.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58Yeah, a big score. I think that's cos everyone who learnt French,

0:16:58 > 0:17:01even at primary school, that was the first word they really laughed at.

0:17:01 > 0:17:03Yeah. It's funny.

0:17:03 > 0:17:05And true!

0:17:05 > 0:17:08- At that age...- Yeah. - ..I hasten to add.- Yeah.

0:17:08 > 0:17:12Thank you very much indeed. Now, Nigel, welcome to Pointless.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14Good to have you here. What do you do, Nigel?

0:17:14 > 0:17:15I'm a financial advisor.

0:17:15 > 0:17:16Right you are, up in Nantwich?

0:17:16 > 0:17:19- Yeah, in Cheshire. - Nantwich in Cheshire

0:17:19 > 0:17:23- is where the great Ben Miller hails from.- Really?

0:17:23 > 0:17:27- Yeah.- Really?- He's from Nantwich. - I bet they've got a statue of him up there.

0:17:28 > 0:17:29Is there a statue of him there?

0:17:29 > 0:17:31No, no, no. We live on the same road

0:17:31 > 0:17:34as his mother used to until recently.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Oh, right, there you are. See?

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Ben Miller Way.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39Yes.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42Miller's Crossing, in fact.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45Now, Nigel, you're the last person to go here.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47- Yeah.- You have this board.

0:17:47 > 0:17:48Help yourself to it.

0:17:48 > 0:17:49Four unanswered ones.

0:17:49 > 0:17:53OK. L'eglise is a church.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55L'ecole is a school.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Commissariat de police is police headquarters.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00And the other one looks like it could be a zoo,

0:18:00 > 0:18:01but it could also be a pet shop.

0:18:01 > 0:18:07Erm... We'll go for l'eglise as a church.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10OK, you're going to go for l'eglise, church. Here is your red line -

0:18:10 > 0:18:12nice and high. Probably a very sensible thing to do.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Let's see how far down the column we get with church.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20It's right. Very well done, you're through.

0:18:22 > 0:18:23Wow, look at that. 45.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26Surprisingly low score, I'd have thought, for that.

0:18:26 > 0:18:2794 is your total. Well done.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31Yeah, safely played, safely through, Nigel.

0:18:31 > 0:18:32L'ecole, you're right, is school.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34Would've scored you a few more points,

0:18:34 > 0:18:36though still would've seen you through.

0:18:36 > 0:18:37Would've scored 68.

0:18:37 > 0:18:39This next one is police station.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42That would have scored you 64.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45And, see, this one, it could be a zoo or it could be a pet shop.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47I thought maybe it was a vet.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49It's actually a pet shop, is the correct answer.

0:18:49 > 0:18:52And 14 points for that. Very well done if you said that. Best answer up there.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54Very good. Thank you very much, Richard.

0:18:54 > 0:18:58So, at the end of our first round, the pair we are sending home with their high score of 124...

0:18:58 > 0:19:01I'm sorry, Alan and Alison, it is you.

0:19:01 > 0:19:05However, we'll see you next time, when I'm certain you'll go much, much further.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Meantime, thank you very much for playing. Alan and Alison.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20Well, look at that. Suddenly we're down to three pairs

0:19:20 > 0:19:22and at the end of this round, we'll have to say goodbye to another pair

0:19:22 > 0:19:25in time for our head-to-head round. Nash, very well done -

0:19:25 > 0:19:27our lowest score of the round there. And hats off to you, Catherine.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30Some heroic salvage work there.

0:19:30 > 0:19:31Best of luck to all three pairs.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34Our category for this round today is...

0:19:36 > 0:19:37It's a Words round.

0:19:37 > 0:19:41Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second?

0:19:41 > 0:19:43And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49OK, let's find out what the question is.

0:19:49 > 0:19:53Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:19:59 > 0:20:03..as they could. S, BLANK, BLANK, BLANK, T.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Yeah, that extra BLANK doing an awful lot of work in this round!

0:20:07 > 0:20:08We're looking for any word with its own entry

0:20:08 > 0:20:12in the British and World English section of oxforddictionaries.com that fits that pattern.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14S, BLANK, BLANK, BLANK, T.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16As ever, no proper nouns.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18Obviously, no hyphenated words.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21- Very best of luck. - Thank you very much indeed.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23OK, now, Katie...

0:20:23 > 0:20:26Always tough going first on a Words round.

0:20:26 > 0:20:27What would you like to go for?

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Again, this is a better round for my dad.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34I think I'm going to go for stout.

0:20:34 > 0:20:35Stout, says Katie.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Stout. Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49Ten.

0:20:49 > 0:20:53APPLAUSE Very well done indeed. Ten.

0:20:54 > 0:20:58- You think that's good? Wait till you see what's Nigel's got up his sleeve.- Can you imagine?

0:20:58 > 0:21:01- It's going to be quite something, isn't it?- Stout.- Stout, yeah.

0:21:01 > 0:21:02Heavy, thick-set.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05Thank you very much. James.

0:21:05 > 0:21:07Well, I can think of lots of common words.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10Unfortunately, no obscure ones, so I'm going to have to say -

0:21:10 > 0:21:13and hopefully no-one has said this, but they will have - sport.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18Sport. OK. James is saying sport.

0:21:18 > 0:21:21Let's see how many of our 100 people said sport.

0:21:30 > 0:21:3115. Not bad.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Not bad, actually. 15 for sport.

0:21:34 > 0:21:37Yeah, again, lots of common words. There are loads of common words -

0:21:37 > 0:21:39loads of words fit that pattern now you look at it.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41Yeah, sport. It means "sport" or "to sport".

0:21:41 > 0:21:45- Yeah.- Sport. You know, sport. - I've got it. Yeah.- As in "sport".

0:21:45 > 0:21:48- Millsy. - This is not a good round for me.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53- Spurt.- Spurt, says Millsy.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55Let's see if that's... I think we know it's right.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Let's see how many of our 100 people said spurt.

0:22:08 > 0:22:09Not bad. Ten.

0:22:13 > 0:22:17Well played, Millsy. Yes, spurt. That's essentially sport in the north-east.

0:22:19 > 0:22:20Thank you very much indeed.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23So, we're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.

0:22:23 > 0:22:27Only two scores between the three pairs. Ten seems to be the low score of choice here.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30Millsy and Catherine and Katie and Nigel on ten.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32Then 15's where we find James and Nash. So, Nash,

0:22:32 > 0:22:37we are going to need an extra-obscure word from you on the next pass. Good luck with that.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:22:44 > 0:22:48OK, so, Catherine, remember, we're looking for any word

0:22:48 > 0:22:51that fits the pattern S, BLANK, BLANK, BLANK, T.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56I'll just go for it. Er...

0:22:57 > 0:23:01- Scart.- Scart?- As in "Scart lead".

0:23:01 > 0:23:05Scart, says Catherine. Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07There is your red line - nice and low.

0:23:07 > 0:23:11But if you can get below that, you are definitely through to the next round. Scart.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17Oh! Sorry.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21- Sorry.- Wow! Interesting. Apparently,

0:23:21 > 0:23:23that is a wrong answer. Scores you 100 points.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Yeah, I'm afraid that's a proper noun

0:23:25 > 0:23:26and it's an acronym as well, Scart.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29It's an acronym of the people who designed the lead itself.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32So we think of it... In the same way we think of Hoover as being

0:23:32 > 0:23:34a vacuum cleaner, I'm afraid it's not.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38- You won't be the only person who said Scart...- Sorry!- ..I assure you.

0:23:38 > 0:23:39Oh, bad luck.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43Nash. Well, I mean, your target is 94 or less.

0:23:43 > 0:23:47OK, I'm going to go for scant.

0:23:47 > 0:23:48S-C-A-N-T.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50Scant, says Nash.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52Here is your red line - nice and high.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55If you can get below this red line with scant,

0:23:55 > 0:23:58you are through to the next round. Let's see how many people said scant.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02It's right and you're through.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Look at that - down to eight.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12We're breaking into new low-score territory here, Nash.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14Well done. 23 is your total.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16Barely sufficient or adequate - scant.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18Thank you very much. Nigel.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21Don't know whether to play safe or go for a pointless.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23Well, 99 or less sees you through.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28OK. Skirt.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30Skirt, says Nigel.

0:24:30 > 0:24:31OK, here is your red line.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34If you can get below that red line up there with skirt,

0:24:34 > 0:24:36you're into the next round. How many people said skirt?

0:24:39 > 0:24:41It's right and you're through.

0:24:47 > 0:24:5017, taking your total up to 27.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54Quite often in these word rounds, there's some very good

0:24:54 > 0:24:58pointless answers that people would have got at home. Have you got anything for us here?

0:24:58 > 0:25:00- Stent.- Stent?

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Oh, used, of course, in medical procedures?

0:25:02 > 0:25:04- Seven points...- Oh!- ..for stent.

0:25:04 > 0:25:08I'll take you through some of the low scorers and then we'll go through the pointless ones.

0:25:08 > 0:25:11Three points for stoat, slept.

0:25:11 > 0:25:16You'd have got three for squat and for snoot and for salut.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Also snout. Two points for skeet, as in, you know,

0:25:19 > 0:25:23the things that you shoot. Two points for swept, shout and splat.

0:25:23 > 0:25:26One point for swart and sprit.

0:25:26 > 0:25:27And here are your pointless answers.

0:25:29 > 0:25:30Sabot, which is a shoe.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32That's where we get the word "saboteur" from.

0:25:32 > 0:25:37Shoat. You could have had skort, which is a type of skirt.

0:25:37 > 0:25:41It's not exactly a skirt. Sloot, which is a gulley made by rainfall.

0:25:41 > 0:25:45"Sm-alt" or smalt, which is blue glass with cobalt oxide inside it.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47And smolt, which is a young salmon.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49So very, very well done if you got one of those at home.

0:25:49 > 0:25:50Let's take a look at the top three.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52Short would have scored 32.

0:25:53 > 0:25:55Shirt, 39.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58And start, 45.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00There we are. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:26:00 > 0:26:04So, we're at the end of our second round and I'm sorry to say the pair we are sending home

0:26:04 > 0:26:07with their high score of 110... it's Catherine and Millsy.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09I'm sorry, you were head-to-headers last time.

0:26:09 > 0:26:10Our only returning pair.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13Far too soon to be sending you back, but thank you so much for playing.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16Catherine and Millsy. APPLAUSE

0:26:18 > 0:26:21But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29Well, congratulations, James and Nash, Nigel and Katie.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32You're now one step closer to the final and a chance to play for our

0:26:32 > 0:26:36jackpot, which currently stands at £4,000.

0:26:39 > 0:26:43Well, here we are. We've reached the head-to-head, which means you're now allowed to confer.

0:26:43 > 0:26:47First pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot. Let's play the head-to-head.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57Here is your first question, and it concerns...

0:27:00 > 0:27:03We're going to show you five pictures now of structures from

0:27:03 > 0:27:05around the world and we've put the name of the architect

0:27:05 > 0:27:10underneath them but with alternate letters missing. Can you tell us the name of the architect, please?

0:27:10 > 0:27:11Thank you very much indeed.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14So, let's reveal our five structures, and here they come.

0:27:14 > 0:27:15We have got...

0:27:39 > 0:27:40There we are.

0:27:40 > 0:27:44James and Nash, you're our low scorers so you will go first.

0:27:47 > 0:27:50Gaudi or Le Corbusier? I don't know whether it's right.

0:27:51 > 0:27:57OK, I think we know about four of them, so we're going to go for C.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59- Yeah.- And I hope I'm pronouncing this right.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01Le Corbusier?

0:28:01 > 0:28:03Le Corbusier, say James and Nash.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05So, Nigel and Katie, over to you.

0:28:05 > 0:28:08Do you want to talk us through the whole board if you can?

0:28:08 > 0:28:10Yeah, well, the obvious one's Eiffel, which is E.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14B is Gaudi.

0:28:14 > 0:28:18A I'm not sure of, but would guess at Barry.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20But D, I think, is Wright.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22And I think that's what we'll go for.

0:28:22 > 0:28:24You're going to go for Wright.

0:28:24 > 0:28:25So, let's see.

0:28:25 > 0:28:29Corbusier. Le Corbusier, say James and Nash for C.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32Let's see if that's right and let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43Nine.

0:28:47 > 0:28:49Very good indeed.

0:28:49 > 0:28:52Nigel and Katie are going for Frank Lloyd Wright for D.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:29:01 > 0:29:04It is right and it...

0:29:04 > 0:29:07beats Le Corbusier. Look at that - four.

0:29:07 > 0:29:09Very, very well done indeed.

0:29:09 > 0:29:13Two fantastic answers there, but well done, Nigel and Katie.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15He DOES know a lot, doesn't he?

0:29:15 > 0:29:18- After one question, you're up 1-0. - Yeah, those are the best two answers

0:29:18 > 0:29:23on the board, so well played, both teams. Frank Lloyd Wright - that is Falling Water.

0:29:23 > 0:29:24Beautiful, the houses he builds.

0:29:24 > 0:29:28Just incredible. Now, A was Barry.

0:29:28 > 0:29:30It's not his surname - he was a builder from Plumstead.

0:29:30 > 0:29:3313 points for that. It's Charles Barry.

0:29:33 > 0:29:35B is Gaudi. Quite right.

0:29:36 > 0:29:3929 points for that. Now, what do you think Eiffel scored

0:29:39 > 0:29:41for this last one?

0:29:41 > 0:29:43You've got to hope 97.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45So close. 78.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50Hmm... Who built the Eiffel Tower?

0:29:50 > 0:29:53E, something, F, something, E, something.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57There we are. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:29:57 > 0:30:01So, here comes your second question. Nigel and Katie get to answer it first but, James and Nash,

0:30:01 > 0:30:04you have to win this one to stay in the game. So best of luck.

0:30:04 > 0:30:07Our second question is all about...

0:30:08 > 0:30:10Prince Harry, Richard.

0:30:10 > 0:30:13There will be five clues now to facts about Prince Harry.

0:30:13 > 0:30:15The most obscure answer wins you the points.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18Thank you very much. Let's reveal our five clues, and here they come.

0:30:33 > 0:30:35I shall read those one last time.

0:30:49 > 0:30:52Nigel and Katie will go first.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55- Shall we go for it? Yeah?- Yeah.- OK.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58The reason why I'm going for this is because

0:30:58 > 0:31:00if he started school in 1998,

0:31:00 > 0:31:03he must have... Well, you start when you're 11.

0:31:03 > 0:31:07So I'm guessing the year he was born was 1987.

0:31:07 > 0:31:11- I'm guessing 1987 for the top one. - OK, 1987, say Nigel and Katie.

0:31:11 > 0:31:13Now then, James and Nash.

0:31:13 > 0:31:17- We're not sure about this.- Do you want to talk us through that board and fill in all our blanks?- Well...

0:31:18 > 0:31:21I don't think he was born in 1987, cos that's the same year

0:31:21 > 0:31:24that I was born and I'm sure he's not as old as me.

0:31:24 > 0:31:26So the only one, really, that we know of -

0:31:26 > 0:31:28and I've no idea if it's right -

0:31:28 > 0:31:31is Sandhurst for the royal military academy.

0:31:31 > 0:31:32Yeah, we'll go for that.

0:31:32 > 0:31:35- Sandhurst.- You're going to go for Sandhurst.

0:31:35 > 0:31:38So, we have 1987 and we have Sandhurst.

0:31:38 > 0:31:41Let's see, in the order they were given. 1987. Is that right?

0:31:41 > 0:31:43Let's see how many people said it if it is.

0:31:46 > 0:31:47Not right,

0:31:47 > 0:31:51which means you only have to be correct with Sandhurst, James and Nash, and you're back in the game.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53Let's see if you are right.

0:31:55 > 0:31:57Yep, you are.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03Look at that. Sandhurst down to 36,

0:32:03 > 0:32:07which means, after two questions, it's 1-1.

0:32:07 > 0:32:12Yeah, he was born in 1984, Prince Harry.

0:32:12 > 0:32:13Would have scored you 21 points.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16And he was 13 when he went to the public school,

0:32:16 > 0:32:17which was Eton College.

0:32:17 > 0:32:19That would have scored you 53 points.

0:32:19 > 0:32:21The one at the bottom there, it's 50-50.

0:32:21 > 0:32:24- And it's the South Pole. - South Pole, yeah.

0:32:24 > 0:32:26And would have scored you 27.

0:32:26 > 0:32:29And Sentebale is the charity he set up.

0:32:29 > 0:32:32- Two points for that. He always does interesting things, Harry, doesn't he?- Yeah.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34Seems like a properly nice guy.

0:32:34 > 0:32:36- I think he is.- Yeah. - Genuinely, yeah.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38- I think he is.- Thank you very much, Richard.

0:32:38 > 0:32:40So here comes your third question.

0:32:40 > 0:32:44This is the one that decides who stays with us and who leaves at the end of this round.

0:32:44 > 0:32:47Best of luck to both pairs. Our third question is all about...

0:32:49 > 0:32:51Films with Hans Zimmer scores.

0:32:51 > 0:32:54If only we had two people doing film PhDs...

0:32:56 > 0:32:59..in the head-to-head. And if only their supervisors were watching.

0:33:00 > 0:33:04Five films now with Hans Zimmer scores, but we've put them in an anagram form, I'm afraid.

0:33:04 > 0:33:06Can you unscramble them?

0:33:06 > 0:33:07Best of luck to both teams.

0:33:07 > 0:33:10Thanks very much indeed. Let's reveal our five anagrams and here they come.

0:33:10 > 0:33:12We have got...

0:33:33 > 0:33:36There we are. James and Nash will go first.

0:33:37 > 0:33:40- Career mount?- Hmm? - What's career mount?

0:33:40 > 0:33:42I've no idea.

0:33:45 > 0:33:47Just go Rain Man? Yeah?

0:33:47 > 0:33:51We're going to try Rain Man, Dustin Hoffman, 1988.

0:33:51 > 0:33:54OK, Rain Man, say James and Nash.

0:33:54 > 0:33:56Nigel and Katie, over to you.

0:33:57 > 0:33:58Er, so...

0:33:58 > 0:34:00Got a couple of them.

0:34:00 > 0:34:04Think possibly the best of the ones we've got is the next to bottom one.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07We'll go for Inception.

0:34:07 > 0:34:11Inception. So, we have Rain Man and we have Inception.

0:34:11 > 0:34:14In the order they were given, James and Nash said Rain Man for A RAM INN.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.

0:34:19 > 0:34:20It's right.

0:34:23 > 0:34:2744. 44 for Rain Man.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30Now then, Nigel and Katie, meanwhile, have gone for Inception

0:34:30 > 0:34:33for NOTICE PIN. Let's see if that's right.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35Let's see how many people said Inception.

0:34:37 > 0:34:38It's right.

0:34:39 > 0:34:4144 is what it has to beat

0:34:41 > 0:34:43and it does. Look at that, down it goes. Very well done.

0:34:43 > 0:34:4526 for Inception,

0:34:45 > 0:34:48which means, Nigel and Katie, after three questions,

0:34:48 > 0:34:50you are through to the final 2-1.

0:34:50 > 0:34:53Very well played. Yeah, Oscar nominated for both of those films,

0:34:53 > 0:34:55Hans Zimmer. He was also Oscar nominated for the bottom one there,

0:34:55 > 0:34:57- the Russell Crowe movie.- Gladiator.

0:34:57 > 0:34:59Gladiator.

0:34:59 > 0:35:00Which would have scored you 41 points.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03Been nominated ten times, only won once, for his work on The Lion King.

0:35:03 > 0:35:05Now, these other two are hard.

0:35:05 > 0:35:08CAREER MOUNT is True Romance.

0:35:08 > 0:35:10- Of course it is.- Would have scored you two points.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12And this last one - now, I just got this one.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15This is a film that if you put it on telly late at night,

0:35:15 > 0:35:16you can never turn it off.

0:35:18 > 0:35:21- Cool Runnings.- Oh! I wasn't going to get that for a million years.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23One point. Very well done if you said that at home.

0:35:23 > 0:35:27Thank you very much indeed, Richard. So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:35:27 > 0:35:28James and Nash, I'm afraid it's you.

0:35:28 > 0:35:32Going out on a film-related question as well, I might add.

0:35:32 > 0:35:35But it's great news for us. Means we get to see you again next time,

0:35:35 > 0:35:37to which we will look forward very much indeed.

0:35:37 > 0:35:39Thanks very much. James and Nash.

0:35:42 > 0:35:45But for Nigel and Katie, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:50 > 0:35:52Congratulations, Nigel and Katie.

0:35:52 > 0:35:56You have fought off all the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:36:02 > 0:36:05- Wahey!- You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot and at the end

0:36:05 > 0:36:08of today's show, let's not forget, the jackpot stands at £4,000.

0:36:08 > 0:36:09There we are.

0:36:12 > 0:36:15Well, very, very swift work, I have to say.

0:36:15 > 0:36:17You came, you saw, you conquered.

0:36:17 > 0:36:19Anything you'd like to see come up in this last round?

0:36:19 > 0:36:23Well, I'd like anything to do with recent music or sport.

0:36:23 > 0:36:25- I think we're both good on sport. - Yeah.

0:36:25 > 0:36:26- Nigel, are you...? - I'd like recent music -

0:36:26 > 0:36:28then Katie can answer them all.

0:36:28 > 0:36:29OK. Very good indeed.

0:36:29 > 0:36:32That's nice. Let's see what today's selection looks like.

0:36:32 > 0:36:33We've got...

0:36:44 > 0:36:46Erm...I think there's only one we can go for.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48It'll have to be England Versus Germany.

0:36:48 > 0:36:52- Yeah. England Versus Germany, Richard.- OK, very best of luck. If you like sport,

0:36:52 > 0:36:55it's a very nice question for you. We're looking for any of the following, please.

0:36:55 > 0:36:58We're looking for any of the players in the 2001 Fifa World Cup qualifier

0:36:58 > 0:37:00that England won, famously, 5-1.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03So, anyone who started the game or came on as a substitute.

0:37:03 > 0:37:06We're looking for anyone who played in the 2010 Fifa World Cup

0:37:06 > 0:37:08last-16 match that England lost 4-1.

0:37:08 > 0:37:10Again, if you started or came on as a sub.

0:37:10 > 0:37:13And we're looking for any of the players in the women's

0:37:13 > 0:37:162015 World Cup third-place play-off between England and Germany.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19Again, starting XI and people who came on as subs.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22So the 2001 qualifier, the 2010 last-16 match

0:37:22 > 0:37:24and the women's World Cup third-place play-off.

0:37:24 > 0:37:27- Very best of luck.- Thank you very much indeed. As always, you've got

0:37:27 > 0:37:29up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32All you need to win the jackpot is for just one of those answers to be

0:37:32 > 0:37:34pointless. Are you ready?

0:37:34 > 0:37:36- Yep.- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38There they are. Your time starts now.

0:37:38 > 0:37:40OK, I think... Women's football, Kelly Smith,

0:37:40 > 0:37:42but I'm not sure whether she's playing any more.

0:37:42 > 0:37:45What was the little... little winger?

0:37:45 > 0:37:48- There's Rachel... Yeah, Rachel Yankey, but she's not playing any more.- No, she doesn't play.

0:37:48 > 0:37:52Erm... Oh! Who's the one that plays for Manchester City?

0:37:52 > 0:37:55There's... OK, do you know any of the others? Cos I'll struggle.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58- Yeah, it's just getting the years right.- 2010 - just go for someone.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01Played in the Fifa World Cup match...

0:38:01 > 0:38:04- Last 16.- So that includes the Germans, don't forget.

0:38:04 > 0:38:06- OK. Do you know any?- Oh, my God. Just gone blank.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08Er...

0:38:08 > 0:38:102010... World Cup last 16.

0:38:10 > 0:38:12- I've just totally gone...- Lescott? No...

0:38:12 > 0:38:15- Keeper - who was the keeper? Did...? - It would have been...

0:38:15 > 0:38:17Did Robert Green...? No, that wasn't the one where he...

0:38:19 > 0:38:23Totally gone blank. 2001.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25- Would that have been Seaman? - Sterling?

0:38:25 > 0:38:27Raheem Sterling. No, he wasn't playing then.

0:38:27 > 0:38:29- Ten seconds left. - He wasn't playing then.

0:38:31 > 0:38:33Who'd have been playing up front?

0:38:33 > 0:38:34Erm...

0:38:34 > 0:38:36Rooney will have played, but he won't be pointless.

0:38:36 > 0:38:41- No, OK.- OK, I'm sorry to say, that is your minute up. I'm really sorry.

0:38:41 > 0:38:44What answers can you give me? If you say which category you're answering, that'd be great.

0:38:44 > 0:38:47- Right, Wayne Rooney. - Wayne Rooney.

0:38:47 > 0:38:49- I've heard of him.- Just to make sure we've got one right.

0:38:49 > 0:38:53- Then...- Sorry, which category? - In the middle one.

0:38:53 > 0:38:56- In the 2010.- The 2010, OK, yeah.

0:38:56 > 0:38:59For the women's third-place play-off...

0:38:59 > 0:39:01- Kelly Smith.- Kelly Smith.

0:39:01 > 0:39:05- Kelly Smith.- And then we'll have...

0:39:05 > 0:39:07Gareth Southgate, the top one?

0:39:07 > 0:39:09Would he have played, Gareth Southgate?

0:39:09 > 0:39:13Yeah, it's possible. In the 2001 qualifier, Gareth Southgate.

0:39:14 > 0:39:18Gareth Southgate. OK, of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer, do you think?

0:39:18 > 0:39:21- Gareth Southgate. - Gareth Southgate goes last. Least likely to be pointless?

0:39:21 > 0:39:23- Wayne Rooney.- Wayne Rooney. And Kelly Smith in the middle.

0:39:23 > 0:39:28OK, well, let's put those answers up on the board in that order, and here they are. We have got...

0:39:31 > 0:39:33Well, very, very best of luck.

0:39:33 > 0:39:36If one of these answers turns out to be pointless and wins you

0:39:36 > 0:39:38that jackpot, what would you do with it?

0:39:38 > 0:39:404,000 quid. Nice prize to take home.

0:39:40 > 0:39:43Probably do some sort of challenge with it.

0:39:43 > 0:39:45Some sort of life challenge.

0:39:45 > 0:39:48I'm sort of working down a bit of a bucket list at the moment, so...

0:39:48 > 0:39:53- OK.- Something like Everest base camp or go Killy, something like that,

0:39:53 > 0:39:56- through a charity.- Killy?- Yeah. - I've never heard it called that.

0:39:56 > 0:39:59Well, you're on first-syllable terms!

0:39:59 > 0:40:01Dude, Kilmarnock High Street's not that...

0:40:01 > 0:40:03It's not that steep. You'll be fine.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05Katie?

0:40:05 > 0:40:11- I think I would probably go on a holiday this year and maybe put the rest towards a new car.- Very good.

0:40:11 > 0:40:14Best of luck. Three good answers there. Your first answer was Wayne Rooney.

0:40:14 > 0:40:17In this case, we were looking for players in the 2010 last-16 match

0:40:17 > 0:40:20of the World Cup. Let's see how many of our 100 people said Wayne Rooney.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23If it is pointless, it wins you £4,000.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26It's right.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28It just has to be pointless - that's the thing.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31Let's see how far down the column we get with Wayne Rooney.

0:40:31 > 0:40:33Down we go through the 40s, into the 30s.

0:40:33 > 0:40:34Into the 20...

0:40:34 > 0:40:36There we are, 29.

0:40:39 > 0:40:43There we are. Not a pointless answer, which means we now move on to your next answer,

0:40:43 > 0:40:46which was Kelly Smith. In this case, we were looking for any players in

0:40:46 > 0:40:50the Fifa women's 2015 World Cup, the third-place play-off.

0:40:50 > 0:40:53If that is a pointless answer, it wins you £4,000.

0:40:53 > 0:40:56Let's see how many of our 100 people said it. Kelly Smith.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01Oh, bad luck.

0:41:01 > 0:41:05As you suspected, not playing in that game.

0:41:05 > 0:41:07Which means everything is now riding on your third and final answer.

0:41:07 > 0:41:09Gareth Southgate, you've gone for.

0:41:09 > 0:41:11We've now gone back to 2001.

0:41:11 > 0:41:14Let us find out how many people said Gareth Southgate.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17If it is right and pointless, it wins you £4,000.

0:41:17 > 0:41:18How many people said it?

0:41:23 > 0:41:24Bad luck.

0:41:27 > 0:41:28Bad luck.

0:41:30 > 0:41:33Well, sadly, you didn't manage to find that pointless answer you needed,

0:41:33 > 0:41:35so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £4,000.

0:41:35 > 0:41:37That now rolls over onto the next show.

0:41:37 > 0:41:40But it's been great. I mean, a really strong performance right through the show,

0:41:40 > 0:41:44and you both get a Pointless trophy to take home, so very well done for that.

0:41:48 > 0:41:52Yes, it's a tough one, that, you know, naming teams from certain years and, you know...

0:41:52 > 0:41:54You know, you'll recognise so many of these names.

0:41:54 > 0:41:57But bringing them to mind in 60 seconds is very, very difficult.

0:41:57 > 0:41:58So, players in the 2001 qualifier.

0:42:03 > 0:42:05You could have had Jamie Carragher or Sol Campbell

0:42:05 > 0:42:08or the entirety of the Germany team, other than Oliver Kahn.

0:42:08 > 0:42:09Every German player was pointless there.

0:42:09 > 0:42:12Gareth Southgate was an unused sub in that game.

0:42:13 > 0:42:15The 2010 last-16 match...

0:42:15 > 0:42:18David James. You were talking about who was the goalie?

0:42:18 > 0:42:19It was David James.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21Mario Gomez of Germany.

0:42:23 > 0:42:25You also could have had Arne Friedrich, Glen Johnson,

0:42:25 > 0:42:27Jerome Boateng. Manuel Neuer was a pointless answer.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30Matthew Upson, Per Mertesacker, a pointless answer.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32And Stefan Kiessling, also pointless.

0:42:32 > 0:42:34Very well done if you said any of those.

0:42:34 > 0:42:35Now, that third-place play-off.

0:42:35 > 0:42:37Some big names here as well.

0:42:37 > 0:42:40Casey Stoney was a pointless answer. She's been on the show.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45Point scorers there - Steph Houghton scored points.

0:42:45 > 0:42:48Karen Carney, Karen Bardsley, Jill Scott, Lucy Bronze, Eniola Aluko.

0:42:48 > 0:42:50Every other answer was a pointless answer.

0:42:50 > 0:42:53Very well done if you got one of those at home. And unlucky.

0:42:53 > 0:42:55You know, every name is familiar, isn't it?

0:42:55 > 0:42:57But what can you do in that 60 seconds?

0:42:57 > 0:43:01Thanks very much. Well, Nigel and Katie - very sadly, they didn't win our jackpot today,

0:43:01 > 0:43:06which means it rolls over onto the next show, when we will be playing for £5,000.

0:43:08 > 0:43:11That's quite a jackpot. Join us next time to see if someone can win it.

0:43:11 > 0:43:13- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:13 > 0:43:15And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
