0:00:21 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:24 > 0:00:26the 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 > 0:00:36I'm Holly, my full name is
0:00:36 > 0:00:39Holly May Jasmine Gillingham Football Club Gould,
0:00:39 > 0:00:41and this is my sister Jordan...
0:00:41 > 0:00:43- Hi.- ..and we are from a town in South Wales called Aberdare.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Couple number two.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48I'm Naomi, this is my partner, Oli, and we are both from Dorset.
0:00:48 > 0:00:49Couple number three.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Hello, I'm Steve, this is Oktiva, and we are from Newcastle.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53And finally, couple number four.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm Jayne, this is my friend Nick,
0:00:55 > 0:00:57and we are representing Petersfield in Hampshire.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59And these are today's contestants.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Thank you very much, all of you. A very warm welcome to the show.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07We'll chat to each of you throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12He has got a lot to answer for, which is lucky,
0:01:12 > 0:01:13because that is actually his job.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18Hiya. Hi, everybody.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19Good afternoon.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Now, every now and again
0:01:22 > 0:01:24when we have our introductions from our people,
0:01:24 > 0:01:26something is raised which we have to address immediately...
0:01:26 > 0:01:28- Yes.- ..and I would say,
0:01:28 > 0:01:30maybe Holly's name needs to be addressed immediately.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Were you getting that? Did you get some of that?
0:01:33 > 0:01:35It was being put out there, I think.
0:01:35 > 0:01:36Gillingham Football Club.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39I think Gillingham Football Club was involved in her name.
0:01:39 > 0:01:40I wonder if that is true.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44I wonder whether it's showboating on her part,
0:01:44 > 0:01:46or whether it's showboating on her parents' part.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Something is definitely up.
0:01:48 > 0:01:49We will find out, I guess, won't we?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Two returning pairs from the last show
0:01:51 > 0:01:53who got knocked out in Round One and Round Two,
0:01:53 > 0:01:55that is Naomi and Oli and Oktiva and Steve -
0:01:55 > 0:01:58and David and Leanne got through to that head-to-head,
0:01:58 > 0:01:59and we had the lovely Geography round.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01It was one of those...
0:02:01 > 0:02:03There are some Pointless jackpot rounds that are just...
0:02:03 > 0:02:05It was stuffed full of pointless answers.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08I think they mentioned six pointless answers during their time.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10They got three pointless answers, they mentioned six.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12There were so many pointless answers,
0:02:12 > 0:02:15if you knew anything about countries or capitals or anything,
0:02:15 > 0:02:16it was joyous to watch, wasn't it?
0:02:16 > 0:02:18It was a wonderful end to the show.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22Fantastic. All of which means that David and Leanne won the jackpot
0:02:22 > 0:02:26last time, so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28There we are. Right, if everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36Now, remember this -
0:02:36 > 0:02:38the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:38 > 0:02:40will be eliminated. That is the rule.
0:02:40 > 0:02:41Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Our first category today is...
0:02:46 > 0:02:48Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:02:48 > 0:02:51who is going to go second? And whoever is going to go first,
0:02:51 > 0:02:52please step up to the podium.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:02 > 0:03:04- Richard.- Yes, we are going to show you a board in a minute
0:03:04 > 0:03:06showing the titles of 12 British sitcoms.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09We are looking for anyone who has appeared in ten episodes or more
0:03:09 > 0:03:12of any of the sitcoms you are about to see,
0:03:12 > 0:03:13all according to IMDb.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Thank you very much indeed.
0:03:15 > 0:03:16So, as Richard said,
0:03:16 > 0:03:18we're going to put an image up with 12 sitcoms on it.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20That board won't change.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21We've got...
0:03:31 > 0:03:33In one breath! I will do them one more time.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45There we are, and all we want to know is the name of anyone
0:03:45 > 0:03:50who appeared in ten or more episodes in each of these sitcoms.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Holly, welcome to Pointless.
0:03:52 > 0:03:53Holly... What was the second one?
0:03:53 > 0:03:55- Mary?- May.- May.
0:03:55 > 0:03:56- Jasmine.- Jasmine.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Gillingham Football Club Gould. - Gillingham Football Club Gould.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01When did you add the Gillingham Football Club?
0:04:01 > 0:04:02At birth, it was added.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05- It was done at birth? - Yeah, my dad went to register me.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07I was supposed to be Holly May Jasmine,
0:04:07 > 0:04:10and I think he just put Gillingham Football Club in for a laugh.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12- For fun.- For fun, basically, yes.
0:04:12 > 0:04:13What about that?
0:04:13 > 0:04:17So, do you have all those initials on things that are...?
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Yeah. To a certain extent, on my passport they can only fit GFC.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24I like to fill it out on most documents
0:04:24 > 0:04:26just so that people ask me, really.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- It passes the time. - It does, it's a good opener.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31On a long-haul flight, if you've got a landing card to fill in,
0:04:31 > 0:04:34that's the last two hours of the flight taken up,
0:04:34 > 0:04:36- filling in the card. - Yeah, exactly.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38- Holly, what you do? - I'm an air hostess, actually!
0:04:38 > 0:04:41LAUGHTER
0:04:41 > 0:04:45Now, how do you like that? How do you like that?
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Very good. On long-haul?
0:04:47 > 0:04:48No, actually, I'm on the short ones,
0:04:48 > 0:04:52so I don't actually get time to fill anything out because it is so short.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Now, Holly, how about this?
0:04:55 > 0:04:57- British sitcoms.- Not great,
0:04:57 > 0:04:59I was probably hoping for American sitcoms more.
0:04:59 > 0:05:04I am probably going to go Phoenix Nights and Peter Kay.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07OK, Peter Kay, nice obscure answer from Phoenix Nights(!)
0:05:07 > 0:05:10Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Peter Kay.
0:05:14 > 0:05:15It's right.
0:05:18 > 0:05:2034.
0:05:23 > 0:05:2634 for Peter Kay. Solid start.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30Yeah, the creator, co-writer and star of Phoenix Nights.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Thanks very much indeed.
0:05:32 > 0:05:33Now, Naomi, welcome back.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36It was Round Two we had to say goodbye to you last time.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38- It was.- Now, remind us what you do, Naomi.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41I, sort of, assistant manage my mum's pub in Dorset.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44See, that's nice. Is it a country pub?
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Yeah, it's very much in the middle of nowhere.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Oh, that is nice. Does it specialise?
0:05:48 > 0:05:50Is it a gastropub, or...?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52It is a sort of gastropub, like...
0:05:52 > 0:05:54we do nice food, but quite pubby food,
0:05:54 > 0:05:56and we get a few drinkers in, as well, so...
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Is your menu every day on a clipboard?
0:05:59 > 0:06:01It isn't, no. It is just printed off.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03We're not posh enough for clipboards.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05No, I quite like printed off without the clipboard.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08I think the clipboard has had its day, I think.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11But each day it's a new menu with the date on the top?
0:06:11 > 0:06:12We don't quite go that far,
0:06:12 > 0:06:15sort of every couple of days we change the specials,
0:06:15 > 0:06:17so we don't tend to put the date on,
0:06:17 > 0:06:19purely because when I'm copy-and-pasting,
0:06:19 > 0:06:20I always forget to change the date.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23That's fair enough. Otherwise, give someone the wrong date,
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- they'll just assume everything is off.- Yeah, exactly.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- I've had that a lot.- OK. Now, Naomi, what would you like to go for?
0:06:28 > 0:06:31I am going to go with Peep Show,
0:06:31 > 0:06:33and I am going to go with Isy Suttie.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Isy Suttie. OK, let's see if that is right.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Let's see how many of our 100 people said Isy Suttie.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42It is right.
0:06:42 > 0:06:4534 is our only score on the board at this stage.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47You pass that.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Oh, it's a pointless answer!
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Very well done indeed, Naomi.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55That is a pointless answer, which adds £250 to today's jackpot,
0:06:55 > 0:06:57take the total up to £1,250,
0:06:57 > 0:07:01it scores you 0, and earns you our undying respect.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Very well done indeed.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05Yeah, that's what we like to see, Naomi, a pointless answer,
0:07:05 > 0:07:06and also she is brilliant, Isy Suttie.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Brilliant writer, brilliant performer, great entertainer.
0:07:09 > 0:07:10She plays Dobby in Peep Show.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Thank you very much, Richard.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Steve, welcome back to Pointless.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Remind us what you do, Steve. - I work for an IT company.
0:07:18 > 0:07:19Based up in Newcastle?
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- That is correct, yeah.- Whereabouts in Newcastle are you based?
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Are you within the city or are you...?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26In the city, yes, very close to the station, if you know where that is.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Very nice. Westgate Road.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Absolutely! I live on Westgate Road. - What about that?
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- Fantastic place to be.- How do you know about Westgate Road?
0:07:34 > 0:07:36I am from the North-East, you see. LAUGHTER
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Now then, Steve, what would you like to go for?
0:07:39 > 0:07:41I'll go for Hi-De-Hi!
0:07:41 > 0:07:43And Jeffrey Holland.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Jeffrey Holland.
0:07:45 > 0:07:46OK, let's see if that's right
0:07:46 > 0:07:49and let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54It is right.
0:07:54 > 0:07:5534 remains our high score.
0:07:59 > 0:08:00Look at that, down to 1!
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Very, very good indeed, Steve.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Very good indeed.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09Well played, Steve, that is a great answer.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Played Spike, of course. Been on the show a couple of times.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14- Absolutely.- He is the person I bump into most in my local high street,
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Jeffrey Holland. Quite often we wander along, have a little chat.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19He doesn't live there, he stalks you, doesn't he?
0:08:19 > 0:08:21We discovered on the show.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23No, it's the other way round, he DOES live there.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27I live in Kettering but I commute down to see if I can bother him.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32Thank you very much. Jayne, welcome to Pointless.
0:08:32 > 0:08:33- Thank you.- Lovely to have you here.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34What do you do, Jayne?
0:08:34 > 0:08:38- I work in the tourist information centre in Petersfield.- That's...
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Tell us about Petersfield.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43We are down for the afternoon, what should we go and look at?
0:08:43 > 0:08:45Well, it depends if you want to stay in Petersfield.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47We have got a magnificent heath
0:08:47 > 0:08:49that's got burial mounds from the Bronze Age
0:08:49 > 0:08:52that's currently having excavations done with archaeologists.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54That's exciting.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56What artefacts have they found there so far, do you know?
0:08:56 > 0:09:00They've found lots of wood and lots of arrowheads and implements,
0:09:00 > 0:09:03- and things like that. - That is a Bronze Age digging site.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06- It would indicate that there is obviously a lot there.- Wonderful.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09We are in the South Downs, so if you go further afield,
0:09:09 > 0:09:13it's beautiful countryside, lots of walking, and Portsmouth,
0:09:13 > 0:09:15you can go and see the historic dockyard.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17There is just so much to do in the area.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Fantastic. Jayne, what are you going to go for on this board?
0:09:20 > 0:09:23I am conflicted because I know I have got one that is pretty safe,
0:09:23 > 0:09:25but seeing how everyone else has done,
0:09:25 > 0:09:27I think I've got to take a risk,
0:09:27 > 0:09:32so I am going to go Sally Phillips.
0:09:32 > 0:09:33Sally Phillips, OK.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Let's see how many of our 100 people said Sally Phillips.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Look at that, it's another pointless answer.
0:09:48 > 0:09:49Well done indeed, Jayne!
0:09:49 > 0:09:55That adds another £250 to today's jackpot, takes the total to £1,500,
0:09:55 > 0:09:57scores you 0, and is generally superb.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59I am glad I went for it now!
0:09:59 > 0:10:01- Very well done indeed. - Another wonderful comic, as well.
0:10:01 > 0:10:05Yeah, she is Tilly in Miranda. She is also in I'm Alan Partridge,
0:10:05 > 0:10:07but has not been in ten episodes of that.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09- You'd think so, she's so memorable in it.- Isn't she?
0:10:09 > 0:10:12- But, yeah, she has not been in ten episodes.- So funny.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Anyway, we are halfway through the round.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Let's take a look at those scores.
0:10:15 > 0:10:180, the best score of that round, Naomi and Jayne,
0:10:18 > 0:10:19very well done to both of you.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23I think you are looking like strong contenders for the next round.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25As, I would say, are Steve and Oktiva.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Now, Holly and Jordan...
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- Oh, no!- She is going to pull it out the bag.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32She is going to have to pull it out the bag
0:10:32 > 0:10:35and put a lot back in the bag!
0:10:35 > 0:10:37But, who knows? We're going to come back down the line now.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:43 > 0:10:44OK, so, Nick,
0:10:44 > 0:10:46remember we are looking for anyone who has appeared
0:10:46 > 0:10:49in ten or more episodes of any of these sitcoms, and obviously,
0:10:49 > 0:10:52you're going to try to find the lowest-scoring one you can.
0:10:52 > 0:10:53Nick, welcome.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Here from Petersfield, also. What do you do, Nick?
0:10:56 > 0:11:00I work in the library, working alongside Jayne.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Oh, so the tourist information is also in the library?
0:11:02 > 0:11:05- Yes.- SOFTLY: So you have to give your information quite quietly.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08INDISTINCT WHISPERING
0:11:08 > 0:11:09Hand over pamphlets.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14With your pen, circle things on maps.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19- That's fun.- That would be fun!
0:11:19 > 0:11:23What fun! And Petersfield with its lovely working library,
0:11:23 > 0:11:25and it's still a popular meeting place, I should hope.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28What do you do when you leave the library, Nick?
0:11:28 > 0:11:33I started trying to write some children books about 15 years ago.
0:11:33 > 0:11:37I'm trying to, when I finish this, actually get down and finish things,
0:11:37 > 0:11:40because I've got a lot of ideas, but it's actually finishing them.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Then the aim is to actually get them in the library.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45It is. Now, are these children's novels or...?
0:11:45 > 0:11:49No, it's children's books which are short.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52The idea is that when parents read books to their kids,
0:11:52 > 0:11:54the parents won't fall asleep first,
0:11:54 > 0:11:57which I think is a danger with quite a few of the books.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59- It certainly can be. - Cos they're dull.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Well, very, very good luck with that, Nick.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Your target score is 33 or less.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07OK. I have got an answer which will either score 100 or 0.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11- These are the answers we love.- I'm going to go with the other answer,
0:12:11 > 0:12:14which is Ashley Jensen, who I believe appears in Extras.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Ashley Jensen, says Nick.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Here's your red line. If you can get below it with Ashley Jensen,
0:12:18 > 0:12:21you're through to the next round. How many people said it?
0:12:25 > 0:12:26It's right.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31It gets you through to Round Two, very well done indeed.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34Ashley Jensen is a pointless answer, very well done indeed!
0:12:34 > 0:12:36That adds another £250 to today's jackpot,
0:12:36 > 0:12:39takes the total to £1,750,
0:12:39 > 0:12:43it scores you 0 and leaves your total at 0.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Very, very well done indeed on podium four, there.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48- This is going well, isn't it? - Isn't it?- Yeah, she plays...
0:12:48 > 0:12:52Another brilliant actor, plays Maggie in Extras.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Marvellous, thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57Now, Oktiva, welcome back to Pointless.
0:12:57 > 0:12:58Remind us what you do, Oktiva.
0:12:58 > 0:13:03I am part of Medicine Delta, working for the National Health Service,
0:13:03 > 0:13:08so we maintain database for suppliers, GPs and pharmacies.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11- Are you based in Newcastle as well? - Quite a boring job.
0:13:11 > 0:13:12- Newcastle, yes.- Very good indeed.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15What do you like getting up to when not working?
0:13:15 > 0:13:18Actually, I do enjoy cycling and walking.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19Beautiful places to walk and cycle.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21And I started running last year.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25- Very good.- After doing The Great North Run.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Oh, it is brilliant, The Great North Run.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29- I did it! - Oktiva, there you are on 1.
0:13:29 > 0:13:3334 is the high score, if you can score 32 or less,
0:13:33 > 0:13:35you will be doing very well.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37This is not good at all.
0:13:37 > 0:13:42I cannot think of any names, apart from I'm Alan Partridge,
0:13:42 > 0:13:43Alan Partridge?
0:13:43 > 0:13:45OK, you're going to say Alan Partridge.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49Here is your red line. You have to get below this to stay with us.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52Let's see what happens when we say Alan Partridge.
0:13:56 > 0:13:57Oh, I'm sorry, Oktiva.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59I'm sorry, an incorrect answer.
0:13:59 > 0:14:03That scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 101.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Yeah, sorry. Jordan, can I commend you for your poker face
0:14:05 > 0:14:08through that whole thing? Holly, less so!
0:14:11 > 0:14:13The huge smile gave something away,
0:14:13 > 0:14:15but Jordan was very impressive there.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18- You wouldn't have known.- I wasn't looking, I didn't dare look.
0:14:20 > 0:14:21Didn't dare look.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Thank you.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Now, Oli, remind us what it is you do.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28I am a freelance chef, I do bits of relief cheffing and event catering.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30See, that is fun. I think that is enormous fun.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33I mean, tough for you, very hard work.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35You have to sort of get straight in there and get straight down to it.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37It is like a finals week of MasterChef
0:14:37 > 0:14:40- for you every day you work, I should think.- Oh, yes, every minute!
0:14:40 > 0:14:41Every minute of the day!
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Are there various kitchens that you go to regularly
0:14:44 > 0:14:45that you sort of become...?
0:14:45 > 0:14:47There have been a few that I created a rapport with,
0:14:47 > 0:14:50but it is quite nice to keep your cooking level changing
0:14:50 > 0:14:54between kind of pubs, restaurants, up into accoladed establishments.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57See, that's exciting. But how about...?
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Isn't it time that maybe Oli's opened?
0:15:00 > 0:15:01- No.- Are you working towards...?
0:15:01 > 0:15:04No, I'm quite happy for somebody else to take the responsibility,
0:15:04 > 0:15:06and pay me to do the magic.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09OK, nice. Now, Oli, what are you going to go for?
0:15:09 > 0:15:10Doesn't matter what you score,
0:15:10 > 0:15:14our high-scorers on 101 are out of your reach.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Hedging my bets, but I am going to go with a hero of mine
0:15:16 > 0:15:18who actually lives in the town I grew up in.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20I will go Trevor Peacock.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Trevor Peacock, says Oli. Let's see if that's right.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24No red line for you, Oli, as you are already through.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Let's see how many people said Trevor Peacock.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30It's right.
0:15:37 > 0:15:38That was another pointless answer!
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Very well done indeed, Oli,
0:15:40 > 0:15:43that adds another £250 to today's jackpot,
0:15:43 > 0:15:46takes the total up to £2,000,
0:15:46 > 0:15:48scores you 0,
0:15:48 > 0:15:50leaves your total at 0.
0:15:50 > 0:15:51Very well done indeed.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54That is great work, yeah. He plays Jim Trott in The Vicar Of Dibley,
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Trevor Peacock. He is the one who says, "No, no, no, no, no, yes."
0:15:57 > 0:15:59That one. I won't do an impression of him.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- But another wonderful actor. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Now, then, Jordan, what about that? What about that? You're back in!
0:16:05 > 0:16:07- Yay!- You are back in.
0:16:07 > 0:16:08I wasn't expecting that.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11- What you do, Jordan?- I am a midwife.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14Well, you must know all about naming children, then!
0:16:14 > 0:16:16What are your names, by the way?
0:16:16 > 0:16:20- Jordan Angharad Gould. I dodged a bullet.- Yes, she did.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22- I'll say you did!- Yeah.
0:16:22 > 0:16:27Jordan, so, the midwifery is fairly full time, I should think.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29That doesn't leave you with a great deal of spare time.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31- Yeah.- I mean, a wonderful thing to be part of.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33- Yeah.- Exhausting, I should think!
0:16:33 > 0:16:36- It is quite.- In a world where you had spare time,
0:16:36 > 0:16:37what would you like to do with it?
0:16:38 > 0:16:40I am a bit of a shopaholic.
0:16:42 > 0:16:46Generally, on my days off, that is what I tend to do,
0:16:46 > 0:16:49is mooch around the shops and spend far too much money
0:16:49 > 0:16:52on things I really do not need.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Perfect! So, then, Jordan, listen, you are on 34.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57The high-scorers are Oktiva and Steve on 101.
0:16:57 > 0:17:0066 or less is all you need to stay with us.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02The only thing that is really coming to mind for me,
0:17:02 > 0:17:06because I can see so many faces, I just cannot pick out the names,
0:17:06 > 0:17:08is Ricky Gervais.
0:17:09 > 0:17:10- OK.- I think he was in Extras.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13OK. This should have been easy, really, shouldn't it?
0:17:13 > 0:17:17- OK, Oktiva and Steve looking excited!- No!
0:17:17 > 0:17:19Ricky Gervais,
0:17:19 > 0:17:21and you have to get below that red line with Ricky Gervais.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Let's see how far down the column we get.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29It is right.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31- You have done it! - Well done!
0:17:31 > 0:17:33I don't know what I was making all that fuss about it.
0:17:33 > 0:17:3526 for Ricky Gervais is fine.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Takes your total up to a nice, round 60.
0:17:38 > 0:17:39Very well done indeed.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Yeah, very well played. Now, Oktiva,
0:17:43 > 0:17:4626 points is also the score for Steve Coogan,
0:17:46 > 0:17:47who played Alan Partridge.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Unfortunately, he was the character Alan Partridge.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Lots and lots of pointless answers.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54I will go through... You will have pointless answers here, I'm sure.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Oh, do you know? I haven't even started thinking about it, but...
0:17:57 > 0:17:58- I won't do...- Yeah, I've got loads.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01The Vicar Of Dibley - we've already had Trevor Peacock,
0:18:01 > 0:18:03but Emma Chambers and James Fleet also pointless answers,
0:18:03 > 0:18:05Jeremy Dyson in The League Of Gentlemen.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Porridge - Brian Wilde and Sam Kelly, both pointless answers.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Phoenix Nights, lots of pointless answers,
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Steve Edge. Justin Moorhouse is a pointless answer.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15Peep Show - Matt King who plays Super Hans is a pointless answer,
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Paterson Joseph, who plays Johnson.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20One Foot In The Grave - Janine Duvitski is a pointless answer.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23Miranda - as well as Sally Phillips you've got Sarah Hadland,
0:18:23 > 0:18:26Patricia Hodge also a pointless answer for that.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Keeping Up Appearances - Josephine Tewson, Geoffrey Hughes,
0:18:29 > 0:18:30Judy Cornwell also a pointless answer.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34I'm Alan Partridge - Simon Greenall, Phil Cornwell, Felicity Montagu,
0:18:34 > 0:18:36pointless answers. Hi-De-Hi - loads of pointless answers.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Felix Bowness, Kenneth Connor,
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Nikki Kelly, Diane Holland, Rikki Howard.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42No pointless answers at all for Father Ted.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45Best answers there - Frank Kelly and Pauline McLynn.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48And Extras - Ashley Jensen, but also the wonderful Shaun Williamson,
0:18:48 > 0:18:50a pointless answer there as well.
0:18:50 > 0:18:51So, loads and loads of pointless answers.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53Well done if you got any of those at home.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Thank you very much indeed. At the end of our first round,
0:18:56 > 0:18:58I'm sorry to say, Steve and Oktiva, we have to say goodbye to you.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01I'm afraid it's another first-round exit, I'm so sorry.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03- I know, so unlucky.- Far too soon, but it has been lovely having you
0:19:03 > 0:19:05on the show, brief though it has been,
0:19:05 > 0:19:07but thanks so much for playing, Oktiva and Steve.
0:19:07 > 0:19:08APPLAUSE
0:19:11 > 0:19:14But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23Well, I'm afraid suddenly one of our pairs has just gone,
0:19:23 > 0:19:25and that is how Pointless works, I'm afraid.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28At the end of this round we'll have to say goodbye to another pair
0:19:28 > 0:19:31in time for our head-to-head round. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...
0:19:36 > 0:19:39Can you all decide in your pairs who'll go first and second?
0:19:39 > 0:19:42And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47OK, and the question concerns...
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Missing words, Richard.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55We are going to show you the titles now of six famous poems
0:19:55 > 0:19:58on each board, but we've missed a word out of the title of each one.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00It's going to be 12 in all to go have a go at at home.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Let's reveal our poems with missing words.
0:20:04 > 0:20:05Here is the first board of six.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22I shall read those all again.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Jordan.
0:20:37 > 0:20:42Erm, poetry not really a strong subject of mine.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46I am pretty thankful for Edward Lear in there, I think,
0:20:46 > 0:20:49because I am pretty sure that is The Owl And The Pussycat.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52The Owl And The Pussycat, OK, let's see if that is right.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55Let's see how many of our 100 people went for The Owl And The Pussycat.
0:20:59 > 0:21:0189.
0:21:01 > 0:21:0289, that's... Listen, it's better than 100.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04- Yes!- 89, not bad.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11He was the 20th of 21 children, Edward Lear.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12Can you imagine?
0:21:12 > 0:21:14How depressing would that be?
0:21:14 > 0:21:17What about going back there for Christmas, all of them,
0:21:17 > 0:21:19with their children?
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Oh, my goodness!
0:21:21 > 0:21:22I mean...
0:21:23 > 0:21:25That is a big turkey, isn't it?
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Yeah, isn't it just?
0:21:27 > 0:21:30I tell you what, I would be going, "Oh, unfortunately,
0:21:30 > 0:21:33"I've got to go and write a poem." "Oh, you are a poet, Edward?"
0:21:33 > 0:21:35"Yeah, yeah". "And what is your poem about?"
0:21:35 > 0:21:37"An owl...and a pussycat."
0:21:37 > 0:21:40"Oh, yeah, really, what do they do?" "Go to sea?"
0:21:40 > 0:21:43He just made that up because he just wanted to get out of Christmas.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45In one go, made the whole thing up.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Naomi, Naomi, what would you like to go for?
0:21:52 > 0:21:58Unfortunately, poetry is massively not my strong point as well,
0:21:58 > 0:21:59so I don't know.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01I knew The Owl And The Pussycat,
0:22:01 > 0:22:04but I'm going to have to guess something else,
0:22:04 > 0:22:07and I do not have the foggiest about any of them.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- OK.- I am just going to take a wild guess.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11She Walks In Red.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15- Why not?- She could be walking in all sorts of things.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Well, she could. She Walks In Shoes.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Let's see how many of our 100 people said red.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25No, I am afraid not red, Naomi,
0:22:25 > 0:22:27but you are in good company.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Jordan and Holly aren't far behind you there.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31And, to be fair, Lord Byron has missed a trick there,
0:22:31 > 0:22:32because red rhymes with a lot.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35- Oh, doesn't it? - So, much better for a poem.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Yeah. Yeah.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Thank you. Now, Nick.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43This board is... When I say this board is all yours,
0:22:43 > 0:22:46I really mean it is all yours, apart from the Edward Lear.
0:22:46 > 0:22:50OK, I hate poetry, but I know at least one of them,
0:22:50 > 0:22:53I will go for The Waste Land by TS Eliot.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55The Waste Land, says Nick.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Let's see how many of our 100 people went with The Waste Land.
0:23:00 > 0:23:01It is right.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09There we go, 14.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14That is head-to-head talk, that is.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Yeah, well done, Nick.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18He used to teach at Highgate School, TS Eliot.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21One of his pupils was Sir John Betjeman.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23- That I did not know.- He wasn't Sir John Betjeman at the time.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26No! That would have been precocious, wouldn't it?
0:23:26 > 0:23:27- That came later. - That would be precocious,
0:23:27 > 0:23:31imagine if one of the kids in your class was Sir John Betjeman!
0:23:31 > 0:23:33- It would be a bit off-putting. - A little bit.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36Let's fill in the rest of this. You will do well here, I think.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39- Rudyard Kipling?- Gunga Din.
0:23:39 > 0:23:40Yeah. Gunga Din, yeah.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44"You are a better man than I, Gunga Din." 51 points for that.
0:23:44 > 0:23:48- Coleridge?- Is Kubla Khan.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Yeah, 23 points for that. Now, not She Walks In Red.
0:23:51 > 0:23:52She Walks In Beauty.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54She Walks In Beauty.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56That would have scored you 9 points -
0:23:56 > 0:23:58and the best answer on the board, do you know this one?
0:23:58 > 0:23:59It is Walking Away.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02It is Walking Away, very well done. That would have scored 1 point.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04Terrific work if you got that at home.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Let's take a look at those scores.
0:24:09 > 0:24:1114, Nick, very well done, the best score of that pass.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Nick and Jayne,
0:24:13 > 0:24:16I think the head-to-head is just moments away for you.
0:24:16 > 0:24:1989 is where we find Jordan and Holly,
0:24:19 > 0:24:22and 100 is where we find Naomi and Oli, so, very best of luck.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23We'll come back down the line now.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Could the second players please step up to the podium?
0:24:28 > 0:24:32OK, let's put six more famous poems with bits missing on the board,
0:24:32 > 0:24:34and here they come.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53I shall read those all one last time.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Jayne.
0:25:11 > 0:25:12Jayne, well, this is quite nice.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14You only have to score 85 or less.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18Right, OK, there is one that I think I might know that would be a risk,
0:25:18 > 0:25:21so I think I want to stick with the one I am certain about,
0:25:21 > 0:25:23and I'm going to go for The Charge Of The Light Brigade.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26The Charge Of The Light Brigade, says Jayne.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27Here is your red line.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29If you get below that with The Charge Of The Light Brigade,
0:25:29 > 0:25:32you are in the head-to-head. How many people said it?
0:25:34 > 0:25:37It is right, and is...
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Look at that! 81.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41Very good indeed.
0:25:41 > 0:25:4295 is your total.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Yeah, that's quite cocky, isn't it?
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Going for that and just getting 95 points.
0:25:49 > 0:25:50Very impressively done.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Now, Tennyson's son said he wrote that in a matter of minutes
0:25:53 > 0:25:56after reading about the charge of the Light Brigade in The Times.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58He said it literally just all came out.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01So, The Times article must have been full of all that detail.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Or did Alfred just make it up?
0:26:03 > 0:26:04No, it was a detailed article
0:26:04 > 0:26:07full of words that rhymed with each other, which was useful.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- Oh, that was nice, isn't it? - Yes. A poet's friend.
0:26:10 > 0:26:11Yeah.
0:26:11 > 0:26:15Light Brigade, good, Light Battalion would have been difficult.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17- Good luck with that!- Yeah, exactly!
0:26:17 > 0:26:19Mind you, Light Battalion, I suppose,
0:26:19 > 0:26:21may have ridden stallions.
0:26:21 > 0:26:22They may have done.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Light Battalion riding stallions,
0:26:24 > 0:26:26Coming over the hill.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28Oh, look at that!
0:26:29 > 0:26:31- That's all I've got.- Yeah.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34- Good job it's half a league, nice rhythm there.- Yeah.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37League, league, that is no good.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39What a palaver in Balaclava, I wish I wasn't here.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42HE HUMS "Shave And A Haircut"
0:26:42 > 0:26:44Anyway, there we go. So, Oli.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Scraping back to the days of school.
0:26:49 > 0:26:54Scrape away, Oli. Now, you are high-scorers at the moment.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56But a low score from you
0:26:56 > 0:26:59could land you in the head-to-head.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02Not entirely sure on any of them, really.
0:27:02 > 0:27:07I'm going to take a guess at the bottom one, Funeral Pyre.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Funeral Pyre, for the Auden.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11No red line for you as you are the high-scorers.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Let's see what happens when we say Funeral Pyre.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19No, I am afraid not Funeral Pyre, Oli.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21Scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 200.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24Yeah, not Funeral Pyre - a song by The Jam,
0:27:24 > 0:27:25but not a poem by WH Auden.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27I'll give all the correct answers at the end of the pass.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32Now, then, Holly. Listen, do you hear?
0:27:32 > 0:27:34That is the sound of the head-to-head!
0:27:34 > 0:27:38- I think it is!- That is what it is, you are through to the head-to-head!
0:27:38 > 0:27:41- Oh, no!- By default, I will add.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Doesn't matter what you score, this board is all yours.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Do you want to talk us through it and just maybe have a punt
0:27:48 > 0:27:51at some of them? See which ones you can fill in.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53The first one might be The Road To Nowhere.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55No, it's not.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57Oh, The Road... Oh, God!
0:27:57 > 0:27:58There we go.
0:27:59 > 0:28:03I knew The Charge Of The Light Brigade.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06I am going to go Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09There we are, there we are, said in the right accent, as well.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11I should know it, shouldn't I, really?
0:28:11 > 0:28:13No red line for you, as you are already through,
0:28:13 > 0:28:15but let's see how many of our 100 people said Night.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20It is right.
0:28:24 > 0:28:2529.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29118 is your total.
0:28:30 > 0:28:31Yeah, well played, Holly.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34They wouldn't let you back into South Wales
0:28:34 > 0:28:37if you hadn't gone for that one. Terrific stuff, from 1952.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40Now, The Road Not...
0:28:40 > 0:28:41- Taken.- It is. Now, I thought Travelled,
0:28:41 > 0:28:43and I think a lot of people, at home,
0:28:43 > 0:28:45I suspect will have said Travelled as well.
0:28:45 > 0:28:48- The Road LESS Travelled, isn't it? - Yes, so it scored 7 points,
0:28:48 > 0:28:50I think because a lot of people make that same mistake.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52Do you know the Blake one?
0:28:52 > 0:28:53I cannot think of that one.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56- A Poison Tree.- A Poison Tree.
0:28:56 > 0:28:57Would have scored you 4.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00Now, Naomi, if only you have had this one in the first round,
0:29:00 > 0:29:03because it's A Red, Red Rose. Would have been perfect.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06That would have scored you 66.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08And it is Funeral...
0:29:08 > 0:29:10- Funeral Blues.- Funeral Blues, yeah.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13And that was the best answer on the board, 2 points.
0:29:13 > 0:29:15Very well done that you said that.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20So, we are at the end of our second round, and I am sorry to say,
0:29:20 > 0:29:24Oli and Naomi, this is where once again we have to say goodbye to you.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26Far too soon, far too soon,
0:29:26 > 0:29:28I am sorry that we did not serve up a better round for you,
0:29:28 > 0:29:30but it has been great having you on.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33Thank you so much for playing, Oli and Naomi.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35APPLAUSE
0:29:36 > 0:29:39But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46Congratulations, Jayne and Nick, Holly and Jordan,
0:29:46 > 0:29:47you're now one step closer to the final,
0:29:47 > 0:29:49and the chance to play for our jackpot,
0:29:49 > 0:29:52which currently stands at £2,000.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Well, what about this? We have arrived at the head-to-head,
0:29:59 > 0:30:00which is just such a great moment,
0:30:00 > 0:30:03because you can start playing as a team now,
0:30:03 > 0:30:04you can chat before you give your answers.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06The first player to win two questions
0:30:06 > 0:30:07will be playing for that jackpot.
0:30:07 > 0:30:11Anything can happen in the head-to-head, but we shall see.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13Very best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:30:19 > 0:30:23Here is your first question, and it concerns...
0:30:26 > 0:30:29- Richard.- We're going to show you some visual clues now to countries
0:30:29 > 0:30:32which are in the EU. Can you tell us what the countries are, please?
0:30:32 > 0:30:35Excellent. Let's reveal our five sets of visual clues,
0:30:35 > 0:30:36and here they are.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11OK, there we are. Jayne and Nick, you're our low-scorers
0:31:11 > 0:31:13so you will go first.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18- C is Romania.- Very good.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28We'll go for C, and Romania.
0:31:28 > 0:31:30C, Romania.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32C, Romania, say Jayne and Nick.
0:31:32 > 0:31:36Now, Holly and Jordan, do you want to talk us through the board?
0:31:36 > 0:31:40Yeah, OK. The first one, we think is Hungary.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43B is Denmark.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45E is Sweden.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46And I do not know D.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51Oh, I do know, I think.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54I am going to go D, Finland.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Finland. Are you happy with that, Jordan?
0:31:56 > 0:31:57- Yeah!- Yes!
0:31:58 > 0:32:01OK, Finland, so we have Romania and we have Finland.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04Jayne and Nick, let's see how many people of our 100 people went for
0:32:04 > 0:32:06Romania for C.
0:32:10 > 0:32:11It's right.
0:32:16 > 0:32:1725.
0:32:21 > 0:32:2325 for Romania.
0:32:23 > 0:32:27Now, meanwhile, Holly and Jordan have said Finland for D.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Let's see if that is right, and how many of our 100 people said Finland.
0:32:32 > 0:32:33It's right.
0:32:37 > 0:32:38Oh, 43 for Finland!
0:32:40 > 0:32:44Not bad, though. Both good answers, but well done, Jayne and Nick,
0:32:44 > 0:32:46after one question, you are up 1-0.
0:32:46 > 0:32:48It's funny how the mind works, cos that's the last one you got,
0:32:48 > 0:32:50immediately, you think it is the hardest one.
0:32:50 > 0:32:52Actually, it's the biggest scorer of all,
0:32:52 > 0:32:55and two of the other ones you knew would have won you the point there.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58The first two. So, you are right about Hungary.
0:32:58 > 0:33:00That would have scored you 19 points.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03The best answer on the board is B, which is Denmark,
0:33:03 > 0:33:05that would've scored you 10 points.
0:33:05 > 0:33:07It would've been a great answer.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10And E, of course is Sweden.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13And that would have scored you 36.
0:33:13 > 0:33:16Thank you very much indeed. OK, here comes your second question.
0:33:16 > 0:33:18Now, Holly and Jordan, you get to answer it first,
0:33:18 > 0:33:21but you have to win it to stay in the game, so, good luck.
0:33:21 > 0:33:23Our second question concerns...
0:33:25 > 0:33:28- Richard.- We're going to show you the surnames, now,
0:33:28 > 0:33:29of five famous composers.
0:33:29 > 0:33:30We'd like the first names
0:33:30 > 0:33:32by which they were most usually known, please.
0:33:32 > 0:33:33Thanks very much indeed.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36Let's reveal our five composers, and here they come.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59There we are. Holly and Jordan, it's over to you.
0:33:59 > 0:34:03You can confer, and you will answer first.
0:34:03 > 0:34:05We are going to have a complete guess, I think, because...
0:34:05 > 0:34:07None of them.
0:34:07 > 0:34:08They all sound familiar,
0:34:08 > 0:34:10but first names is just...
0:34:11 > 0:34:12Gone. I don't know,
0:34:12 > 0:34:13what do you want to say?
0:34:13 > 0:34:17- I am not sure.- We will go for...
0:34:17 > 0:34:19What do you think?
0:34:19 > 0:34:22Francois Bizet.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25Francois Bizet, say Holly and Jordan.
0:34:25 > 0:34:29OK, Jayne and Nick, do you want to talk us through those?
0:34:29 > 0:34:32- Do you think Henry Purcell? - Yes, that is what I had.- Yeah, OK.
0:34:32 > 0:34:36We're going to go for the second one - Henry Purcell.
0:34:36 > 0:34:41Henry Purcell. OK, so we have Francois Bizet and Henry Purcell.
0:34:41 > 0:34:44Holly and Jordan said Francois Bizet, let's see if that is right.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46Let's see how many people said it if it is.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52No, I am afraid not Francois Bizet.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55Now, Jayne and Nick have gone for Henry Purcell.
0:34:55 > 0:34:56Let's see if that is right,
0:34:56 > 0:34:58and let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:35:01 > 0:35:02It is indeed Henry Purcell,
0:35:02 > 0:35:04but crucially, it was right.
0:35:07 > 0:35:0830.
0:35:10 > 0:35:14And that means, Jayne and Nick, very well done, after two questions only,
0:35:14 > 0:35:17you have gone straight through to the final, 2-0.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20Yeah, nicely played. Now, you'll be able to fill in this board,
0:35:20 > 0:35:22won't you, with your classical music skills?
0:35:22 > 0:35:23- Mendelssohn...- Felix.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27He was, at one stage, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy.
0:35:27 > 0:35:30- But he seemed to drop the Bartholdy. - Oh, did he?- Yeah.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32I think it's because, when he got famous,
0:35:32 > 0:35:34it just took too long to sign his autograph.
0:35:34 > 0:35:38I guess that's right. It is a bit... He was actually
0:35:38 > 0:35:42- Felix May Jasmine Gillingham Football Club Mendelssohn... - Bartholdy.
0:35:42 > 0:35:44Yeah, yeah.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47Bizet, it's not Francois, it is...
0:35:47 > 0:35:48Georges.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51Georges.
0:35:51 > 0:35:52Chopin.
0:35:52 > 0:35:54Frederic Chopin.
0:35:56 > 0:35:59Vingt-trois points for Frederic Chopin.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01He was Polish, of course, but I cannot do it in Polish.
0:36:01 > 0:36:03I don't know a Polish accent, really,
0:36:03 > 0:36:05or if I did, it would not be...
0:36:05 > 0:36:06Yes. And Robert Schumann.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08Robert Schumann, you're right.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10Bob Schumann I used to know him as.
0:36:10 > 0:36:133 points for that, very well done if you said that.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15There we are. Thank you very much indeed.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17So, the pair leaving the end of the head-to-head round,
0:36:17 > 0:36:20I am afraid it's Holly and Jordan.
0:36:20 > 0:36:21I'm so sorry,
0:36:21 > 0:36:23it has been lovely having you all the way through to this stage.
0:36:23 > 0:36:25This is where we have to say goodbye,
0:36:25 > 0:36:27but the good news is we get to see you again next time,
0:36:27 > 0:36:30when I am sure you will do just as well.
0:36:30 > 0:36:32But in the meantime, thank you very much for playing, Holly and Jordan.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34APPLAUSE
0:36:36 > 0:36:39But, for Jayne and Nick, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45Congratulations, Jayne and Nick,
0:36:45 > 0:36:46you've fought off all the competition
0:36:46 > 0:36:49and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot -
0:36:57 > 0:37:00and at the end of today's show, thanks in part to your hard work,
0:37:00 > 0:37:02the jackpot is standing at £2,000.
0:37:02 > 0:37:03There we are.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09Now, let's just go back over this.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Your first appearance on Pointless.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14Your first two answers on Pointless were pointless.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17You have come through the head-to-head round 2-0,
0:37:17 > 0:37:19and you have come through to the final,
0:37:19 > 0:37:20you've won the Pointless trophy.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23This is an achievement you can go back to work
0:37:23 > 0:37:24and really whisper about.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26LAUGHTER
0:37:27 > 0:37:29Fantastic.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31Now, as always, you get to choose your category
0:37:31 > 0:37:33from the four we put up on the board there.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35Let's have a look at today's selection,
0:37:35 > 0:37:37see what they look like.
0:37:49 > 0:37:51- If you feel you know cricketers, Nick.- Pfft...
0:37:51 > 0:37:53I mean, that is more than anything I have.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55Opera, no. Military history, no.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57- Zombie films...- No.
0:37:57 > 0:37:58I know a couple.
0:37:58 > 0:38:01- By default?- Yes, by default.
0:38:01 > 0:38:04It is going to be Wisden Cricketers of the Year.
0:38:04 > 0:38:07OK, very best of luck. Quite simple, this one,
0:38:07 > 0:38:09we are looking for any Wisden Cricketer of the Year
0:38:09 > 0:38:11in the following decades, please.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23Very, very best of luck.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25Thank you very much indeed. Now, as always,
0:38:25 > 0:38:27you have got up to one minute to come up with three answers,
0:38:27 > 0:38:30and all you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those answers
0:38:30 > 0:38:33- to be pointless. Are you ready? - Yes.- Very good.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37There they are. Your time starts now.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40OK, I have got one from the '80s, a guy called Graeme Hick.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42Richie Benaud, is he from any of those...?
0:38:42 > 0:38:44I think he might be a little bit early,
0:38:44 > 0:38:46I am not sure whether they can be international or not.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48I'm guessing they can.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54Viv Richards, but it's not going to be pointless.
0:38:58 > 0:38:592000s, what have you got?
0:39:00 > 0:39:02Flintoff is obvious.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05Ramprakash, is there someone called...?
0:39:05 > 0:39:09There is, I don't know whether he was Cricketer of the Year or not.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15Botham?
0:39:15 > 0:39:21I think he's too high profile, I think. So... Um...
0:39:24 > 0:39:27- What else have you got? - We have got Graeme Hick.
0:39:27 > 0:39:28Bob Willis.
0:39:28 > 0:39:32- Bob Willis. - He's quite high, and 2000s,
0:39:32 > 0:39:36maybe Andrew Strauss, possibly.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38OK, that is your time. Let's have your three answers,
0:39:38 > 0:39:40and if you could say which decade as well.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43OK, 2000s - we will go with Andrew Strauss.
0:39:43 > 0:39:47- 1980s, Graeme Hick.- Graeme Hick.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50Viv Richards for the '80s, even though he's from the '70s,
0:39:50 > 0:39:51- but '80s, yeah.- OK.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54Which of those do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:54 > 0:39:56- Probably Graeme Hick. - Graeme Hick goes last.
0:39:56 > 0:39:59- Least likely to be pointless?- Andrew Strauss, because he is more recent.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02Andrew Strauss, and Viv Richards we'll pop in the middle.
0:40:02 > 0:40:04OK, let's put those answers on the board in that order, then,
0:40:04 > 0:40:06and here they are. We've got...
0:40:09 > 0:40:11Well, best of luck.
0:40:11 > 0:40:14Three good answers on the board. Let's hope all three are right,
0:40:14 > 0:40:17and let's hope at least one of those three answers is pointless
0:40:17 > 0:40:18and will win you that jackpot.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20£2,000, a nice jackpot to be taking home.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22What would you do with that? Jayne, you first.
0:40:22 > 0:40:26I have got a few holidays, I want to do a few more European cities,
0:40:26 > 0:40:28so I have got Rome and Prague in my sights.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32I'd maybe put the money towards going away on holiday.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34Very nice indeed. Nick, how about you?
0:40:34 > 0:40:37I need a new laptop, because mine has had it,
0:40:37 > 0:40:42- and, yeah, that would be fantastic. - Very good. Well, best of luck.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44Your first answer was Andrew Strauss.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47In this case, we were looking for
0:40:47 > 0:40:49Wisden Cricketer of the Year in the 2000s.
0:40:49 > 0:40:52It has to be right, then it has to be pointless for you to win,
0:40:52 > 0:40:56so let's see - for £2,000, how many people said Andrew Strauss?
0:40:59 > 0:41:00It is right.
0:41:02 > 0:41:05Andrew Strauss taking us down through the 40s and the 30s,
0:41:05 > 0:41:07if this goes all the way down to 0,
0:41:07 > 0:41:08you leave you with £2,000.
0:41:08 > 0:41:09Into single figures.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11Still going down, Andrew Strauss...
0:41:11 > 0:41:13You've done it!
0:41:16 > 0:41:19That is fantastic!
0:41:19 > 0:41:22Andrew Strauss is a pointless answer.
0:41:27 > 0:41:28Wow!
0:41:29 > 0:41:34Andrew Strauss, what a surprise, was a pointless answer!
0:41:34 > 0:41:37That means you go home with the jackpot of £2,000.
0:41:37 > 0:41:39Jayne and Nick, very well done indeed.
0:41:41 > 0:41:42What about that?
0:41:42 > 0:41:44Yeah, a really good category to pick,
0:41:44 > 0:41:47our 100 did not cover themselves in glory here, I have to say.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50Let's take a look at the pointless answers in the different categories.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52We will start with the 1960s.
0:41:52 > 0:41:53All sorts of names...
0:41:56 > 0:41:59Everybody apart from Geoff Boycott, Gary Sobers, Ken Barrington,
0:41:59 > 0:42:01Brian Close, Ted Dexter, Basil D'Oliveira,
0:42:01 > 0:42:02and with 2 points, Richie Benaud.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04Everyone else was a pointless answer,
0:42:04 > 0:42:07but he was one of the Cricketers of the Year in the 1960s.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10In the 1980s, again, so many big names here.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12Joel Garner, the West Indian bowler.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15Richard Hadlee, the New Zealand all-rounder.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18Steve Waugh, Clive Rice, Craig McDermott, Dilip Vengsarkar,
0:42:18 > 0:42:21Derek Randall, Javed Miandad, Jeff Dujon, John Emburey
0:42:21 > 0:42:25Sunil Gavaskar, and Graeme Hick, also a pointless answer,
0:42:25 > 0:42:27so, well done.
0:42:27 > 0:42:31And the 2000s Cricketers of the Year, again, so many big names here.
0:42:35 > 0:42:39Gilchrist, Caddick, Lee, Cairns, Klusener, Jayawardene,
0:42:39 > 0:42:40Hayden, Rahul Dravid, Ryan Sidebottom,
0:42:40 > 0:42:44Shaun Pollock, Steve Harmison, loads and loads of other names here.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47Viv Richards was a Wisden Cricketer of the Year, but in the 1970s.
0:42:47 > 0:42:48- Oh.- Very well done if you got any at home,
0:42:48 > 0:42:50and terrific work in the studio.
0:42:50 > 0:42:52You've been brilliant throughout the entire show,
0:42:52 > 0:42:54and deserve every penny of that jackpot.
0:42:54 > 0:42:56- Congratulations. - Thank you very much indeed,
0:42:56 > 0:42:59and thanks once again to our winning players, Jayne and Nick,
0:42:59 > 0:43:02who go away with today's jackpot of £2,000.
0:43:04 > 0:43:05Join us next time
0:43:05 > 0:43:08when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...
0:43:10 > 0:43:13- Goodbye.- ..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
