0:00:18 > 0:00:20APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed.

0:00:23 > 0:00:24Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong,

0:00:24 > 0:00:27and welcome to Pointless - the show where the aim of the game

0:00:27 > 0:00:30is to avoid the obvious answers and find a obscure ones.

0:00:30 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33APPLAUSE

0:00:35 > 0:00:37And, couple number one.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39Hi, my name is Gerry, I'm from Weymouth,

0:00:39 > 0:00:41and this is my friend Imy, and he's from London.

0:00:41 > 0:00:42Couple number two.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hi, I'm Ulf, this is my wife Yoshi -

0:00:44 > 0:00:46she's from North London, I'm originally from Sweden,

0:00:46 > 0:00:48and we live in London.

0:00:48 > 0:00:49Couple number three.

0:00:49 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Jordan, and this is my sister

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Holly May Jasmine Gillingham Football Club Gould,

0:00:53 > 0:00:56and we are from Aberdare in South Wales.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58And finally, couple number four.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Jane, this is my brother Dave,

0:01:00 > 0:01:02where from Mansfield in Nottinghamshire.

0:01:02 > 0:01:03And these are today's contestants.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05APPLAUSE

0:01:05 > 0:01:08Thank you very much, all of you. A very warm welcome to Pointless.

0:01:08 > 0:01:09Great to have you with us.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11We'll get to chat to each of you throughout the show,

0:01:11 > 0:01:12as it goes along.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce -

0:01:15 > 0:01:17the crackpot in charge of the jackpot,

0:01:17 > 0:01:19- it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21- APPLAUSE - Hey, everybody.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23Good afternoon.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25- Good afternoon to you. - Good afternoon.- How are you?

0:01:25 > 0:01:26- I'm very well.- Excellent.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29Now, a series of firsts on today's show - it's our first ever Imy,

0:01:29 > 0:01:31it's our first ever Ulf, it's our first ever Yoshi,

0:01:31 > 0:01:34it's our second ever Holly May Jasmine Gillingham Football Club,

0:01:34 > 0:01:36because they were on last time.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38- So, yeah, novelties abound. - Don't they?

0:01:38 > 0:01:40As I say, Holly and Jordan were on the last show,

0:01:40 > 0:01:42got through to the head-to-head,

0:01:42 > 0:01:44and that was a cracking show, that last one.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46We had four pointless answers during the main course of the show,

0:01:46 > 0:01:49and then Jayne and Nick got a further two in the jackpot round,

0:01:49 > 0:01:51as well, and walked away with jackpot.

0:01:51 > 0:01:53So, it was a very, very strong show.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55Holly and Jordan, though,

0:01:55 > 0:01:57they were quite surprised they were in the head-to-head.

0:01:57 > 0:01:59It's the first time we've ever told somebody

0:01:59 > 0:02:00they're through to the head-to-head

0:02:00 > 0:02:02and their reaction was, "Oh, no. Oh..."

0:02:04 > 0:02:06So, who knows what they're going to get up to today?

0:02:06 > 0:02:09- But lovely to welcome our three new pairs along, too.- Exactly.

0:02:09 > 0:02:10Thank you much indeed.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12So, yes, Jayne and Nick won the jackpot last time,

0:02:12 > 0:02:17which means today's jackpot starts off at a nice, manageable £1,000.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20There we are. Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22APPLAUSE

0:02:25 > 0:02:27So, remember, the pair with the highest score

0:02:27 > 0:02:31at the end of each round will be eliminated. The highest score.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33Keep those scores down. Best of luck to all four pairs.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Our first category today is...

0:02:37 > 0:02:39GERRY GASPS

0:02:39 > 0:02:43- Gerry, was that an inhalation of, "Yippee!" or...?- Yeah, no.- No.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46I see. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:02:46 > 0:02:48who's going to go second?

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Whoever's going to go first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55OK, and the question concerns...

0:02:59 > 0:03:02I'm getting quite excited. The high street in Spanish.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Yeah, get your pronunciations warming up.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07We're going to show you the names of seven establishments

0:03:07 > 0:03:09you might find on a typical high street, but in Spanish.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11You just need to tell us what the English

0:03:11 > 0:03:13for these establishments are, please.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15Seven on the first board, seven on the second - 14 in all.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18- Let's have a go at home, good luck - and good luck to you.- Thank you.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Here we go, let's reveal our first board

0:03:22 > 0:03:25of seven things on the Spanish high street.

0:03:25 > 0:03:26We've got...

0:03:38 > 0:03:39I'm going to read those again.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53APPLAUSE

0:03:54 > 0:03:55Thank you very much.

0:03:55 > 0:03:59Gerry, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here - from Weymouth.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01- I am indeed.- Very good. What keeps you busy down in Weymouth?

0:04:01 > 0:04:03I work as a centre coordinator,

0:04:03 > 0:04:06which deals with getting adults back into work.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09So, upskilling and teaching them new skills.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11- I see - but you teach, as well. - I do, yeah.- What you teach?

0:04:11 > 0:04:14- Maths, English and IT.- Good for you! - So, it's just upskilling.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16- That keeps you busy.- It does. - Plenty to be getting on with.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19- That's quite satisfying - have you had great success stories?- Exactly.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22- People you've seen off...- That's what makes the job worthwhile -

0:04:22 > 0:04:24- seeing people get back into work, and...- Fabulous.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26- ..improving their confidence. - Do you go around,

0:04:26 > 0:04:28go and visit them secretly to see what they're doing

0:04:28 > 0:04:31- in their new work?- Cos we can still help people while they're in work,

0:04:31 > 0:04:33we still get people coming back, learning new skills,

0:04:33 > 0:04:35- and carrying on their new journey.- Very good.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37Excellent, Gerry. Very worthwhile indeed.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40Now, you didn't look happy with Spanish as a category.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42- I didn't, but there's a couple I know.- Yeah.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44The easy ones - so, I'm hoping people,

0:04:44 > 0:04:46as they get down the row, might not know them.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49So, I'm going to go for...

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Supermercado and supermarket.

0:04:54 > 0:04:55OK!

0:04:55 > 0:04:58When you said the easy ones, I thought - OK, oh, that one.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00OK, right. Supermercado, supermarket.

0:05:00 > 0:05:01- You think?! Let's see.- I'm hoping.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04How many of our 100 people said supermarket?

0:05:07 > 0:05:08It's... It's...

0:05:08 > 0:05:11That's how right it is, Gerry. It's 89 right.

0:05:11 > 0:05:12APPLAUSE

0:05:12 > 0:05:14Good start to the round.

0:05:14 > 0:05:15Yeah, you know what?

0:05:15 > 0:05:18It's quite a tough board, so we may see 100s during this round,

0:05:18 > 0:05:20- I suspect.- We may.

0:05:20 > 0:05:24Only one in ten people do all of the grocery shopping online now,

0:05:24 > 0:05:26but nearly a third of us do it sometimes.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29- That's just going to grow and grow and grow, isn't it?- I suppose it is.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31- It's so much simpler. - Yeah. It's so much simpler.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34- I tell you, two main reasons - one, those six-packs of water...- Yeah.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36- ..you get, that are really heavy... - Yeah.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38..and two, you can get, like, 24 toilet rolls

0:05:38 > 0:05:39and you don't feel like an idiot.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43- That's right, yes.- Yeah.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46Yeah, bulk buying of toilet rolls - it just doesn't look good, does it?

0:05:46 > 0:05:49- I know, which is weird.- It looks like an emergency, doesn't it?

0:05:49 > 0:05:51There's people going, "24, he bought.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54"You do that every day? You get through 24 a day?"

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Thank you very much indeed.

0:05:57 > 0:05:58- Now, Yoshi.- Hi. - Welcome to Pointless.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Good to have you here, Yoshi.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02What you do, Yoshi?

0:06:02 > 0:06:04I'm a consultant in international development.

0:06:04 > 0:06:08That's exciting. What area? What department is yours?

0:06:08 > 0:06:12Um... I work with... It's really not as exciting as it sounds!

0:06:12 > 0:06:16I work with state governments on data and using it in policy.

0:06:16 > 0:06:20I see - there are different areas of the world that you specialise in,

0:06:20 > 0:06:23- or are you...? - I used to work in Sudan...- Right.

0:06:23 > 0:06:26- ..but, when we moved here I took a break.- OK.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29Yoshi, what do you like doing when not hard at work?

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Very random things.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34At the moment, I'm learning how to monoski, and, also -

0:06:34 > 0:06:37it's not really a hobby so much as a nervous tic -

0:06:37 > 0:06:39I make small origami birds.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42I'm going to come in and inspect behind your podium

0:06:42 > 0:06:45at the end of the show and see the mound of origami birds.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47- Busy kind of fiddling - yeah. - So, monoskiing is...

0:06:47 > 0:06:50- Yeah, as in adaptive skiing... - Fixed foot?

0:06:50 > 0:06:52No, it's not the really cool one...

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Well, it's cool very different way, but it's the one where you sit.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56- There's a seat on one ski. - Oh, that's fun!

0:06:56 > 0:06:58So, you're going along on your monoski,

0:06:58 > 0:07:00and then you sit down, cross your legs...

0:07:00 > 0:07:02paper out...

0:07:02 > 0:07:04- And you don't look where you're going.- No.- It's great.

0:07:04 > 0:07:05Oh, fantastic.

0:07:05 > 0:07:08OK, now, Yoshi, what would you like to go for on our board, here?

0:07:08 > 0:07:12I'm going to mess up the pronunciation, but the pescaderia -

0:07:12 > 0:07:14um, fishmongers.

0:07:14 > 0:07:15Fishmongers for pescaderia.

0:07:15 > 0:07:16Let's see if that's right,

0:07:16 > 0:07:19let's see how many of our 100 people said fishmongers.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24It's right. Well, 89 was our high score. You passed that a while back.

0:07:24 > 0:07:2647 is where we end up with fishmonger.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28APPLAUSE Very good indeed, Yoshi.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33Well played, Yoshi, yeah.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36- "Pesc", there's your clue. - Yeah.- Right there, isn't it?

0:07:36 > 0:07:39- Right there.- Yeah.- Mm. Mm-mm-mm.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41- Holly.- Hello. - Now, welcome back. Thank you.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43- Head-to-head, last time.- Mm-hm.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45We have a new audience today, it's a new day -

0:07:45 > 0:07:48- we might have to remind people about your interesting nomenclature.- Yes.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Tell us what your names are.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52Holly May Jasmine Gillingham Football Club Gould.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55- There we go - and you've been called that all your life.- Mm-hm.

0:07:55 > 0:07:56Since birth.

0:07:56 > 0:08:00- And it was just a father, on a whim, in the registrar's office?- Yeah!

0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Just came up with it. - Yeah, just for banter.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06- Are Gillingham Football Club aware? - I don't think so, actually.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09- Well, they are now.- Yeah. - They might be now.

0:08:09 > 0:08:10Wouldn't that be nice,

0:08:10 > 0:08:12if they extended some enormous favour to you?

0:08:12 > 0:08:15- Like a stand.- A stand! - I think a stand - probably a stand.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18Or just a bench - you could have your own seat there in perpetuity.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20- Yeah, that would be nice. - Oh, that would be nice.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22I've probably only been to watch them play twice, mind, so...

0:08:22 > 0:08:26- I shouldn't...- No!- You should be known by the football club.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29- If there's nothing else we can achieve out of today show...- Yeah.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31..please let that happen.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Holly, what would you like to go for?

0:08:33 > 0:08:35Well, I did download an app to learn Spanish,

0:08:35 > 0:08:38but this doesn't help, so, unfortunately,

0:08:38 > 0:08:40I'm going to have to go for the most obvious one,

0:08:40 > 0:08:43which is the bottom one, which is a florist.

0:08:43 > 0:08:44Floristeria.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47There we are. Well, it's got "florist" in it, hasn't it?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49So, let's see how many of our 100 people went for florist.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54It's right. Look at that, 91. Whoa!

0:08:54 > 0:08:57There we go, Holly. 91 for floristeria.

0:08:57 > 0:08:58APPLAUSE

0:08:59 > 0:09:02Yeah, they say, to make cut flowers last longer,

0:09:02 > 0:09:04a solution of vodka and sugar.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07- That's the perfect thing. - Oh, that's changed.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09- Yeah? - Cos you used to get those little...

0:09:09 > 0:09:12Well, you still do - used to get a little packet of powder

0:09:12 > 0:09:16- on your flowers.- Yeah.- Now you get a sort of packet with some sort of...

0:09:16 > 0:09:19- goo in it, I don't know what that is...- It's vodka and sugar.

0:09:19 > 0:09:20Excellent, there you go.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22Thank you a much indeed. Vodka and sugar.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24- Now then, Jane, welcome to Pointless.- Hello.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26- Great to have you here. From Mansfield.- Yes.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29- What do you do, Jane? - I'm a therapeutic counsellor.

0:09:29 > 0:09:33Does it sort of stray, sometimes, into sort of psychology,

0:09:33 > 0:09:35- or is it...?- Yeah.- Yeah, so it's that kind of...- Yeah.

0:09:35 > 0:09:39- I work with teenagers, and I do couples therapy, as well.- I see.

0:09:39 > 0:09:43Jane, what are your interests when the couch has been put away?

0:09:43 > 0:09:47Um... Well, we've just re-homed a dog.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50- He's four years old - so, walking, at the minute.- Right.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53- Doing a lot of walking. - And where did the dog come from?

0:09:53 > 0:09:58- Originally from Cyprus.- Right. - So, he's got a passport.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00- Good for holidays.- Yeah. - That's good, yeah.

0:10:00 > 0:10:04He was at a re-homing centre in Cyprus, and then brought over here.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06Very good. Well, good for you.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09- Now, Jane, you're the last person to have this lovely board...- Yes.

0:10:09 > 0:10:11- ..of Spanish high-street highlights. - Yes.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13If you fancied it, you could talk us through it.

0:10:13 > 0:10:17The ones that they've said, I would have said those,

0:10:17 > 0:10:21so I'm going to have a guess at the fourth one down -

0:10:21 > 0:10:22possibly a butchers.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24Of course. Surely. Surely.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26Butchers, let's see - and I wouldn't be surprised

0:10:26 > 0:10:28if this is the lowest score of the round, if it's right.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30Let's see how many people said butchers.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34It is butchers.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36Well, 91 with the high score. We passed that.

0:10:36 > 0:10:3747's the low score, we've passed that.

0:10:37 > 0:10:3927. Very well done indeed, Jane.

0:10:39 > 0:10:40APPLAUSE

0:10:40 > 0:10:41Good work.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46Yeah, very well played.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48We've picked off the four, there, where there was some sort of clue.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52- Yeah.- The other three are much, much harder.

0:10:52 > 0:10:56Do you know there are 19 billion chickens on earth?

0:10:56 > 0:10:59Isn't that amazing? Three times as many as there are humans.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01- Wow.- I know.

0:11:01 > 0:11:02And yet you don't see many of them.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04- Where are they? What are they up to?- Where are...?

0:11:04 > 0:11:06They're up to something.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09Now, let's fill them in. Do you have any idea on any of these?

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Do you know, I really don't?

0:11:11 > 0:11:14I'm just wondering, are there any clues in any of those?

0:11:14 > 0:11:15Well, jugueteria may be a little clue.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18- Jugueteria. - The "JU" maybe is a little clue.

0:11:18 > 0:11:22- So, it's a... Children's clothes... No. Toy...- Toyshop.- ..shop!

0:11:22 > 0:11:24Yes! There we go.

0:11:24 > 0:11:25Good. That's good.

0:11:25 > 0:11:264 points for that.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Tintoreria. Tintoreria.

0:11:28 > 0:11:32- Tinto... Um...- I mean, it sounds like a hairdressers, right?- Yeah...

0:11:32 > 0:11:37- It does. "I'll just tint that area for you, there."- OK.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39- It's not a hairdressers. - Ugh, well, thanks(!)

0:11:39 > 0:11:41- It's a dry cleaner.- Ah!

0:11:41 > 0:11:43- A dry cleaner.- Right, OK. - 6 points for that.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45- Peluqueria. A peluqueria. - Peluqueria.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49- Peluqua...- Now, that is a hairdressers. For whatever reason.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51Cos they "pluque" hairs out.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53There you go - and that would have scored you 9 points.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55Peluquer... Yeah, "pluque-hair-ia."

0:11:55 > 0:11:56"Pluque your hair-ia."

0:11:56 > 0:11:58- Here.- Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00Well, we're halfway through the round.

0:12:00 > 0:12:01Let's have a look at the scores.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03At 27, well done, Jane - the best score of the pass.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Superb work, there.

0:12:05 > 0:12:0747 is where we find Yoshi and Ulf,

0:12:07 > 0:12:09and then, 89, Gerry and Imy.

0:12:09 > 0:12:1391, Holly and Jordan. No, that's nice - there you are together.

0:12:13 > 0:12:14- Mm.- There's only 2 points between you.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17Best of luck. We're going to come back down the line now.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:12:22 > 0:12:26OK, let's put seven more Spanish high street locations on the board -

0:12:26 > 0:12:28and here they are.

0:12:28 > 0:12:29We've got...

0:12:39 > 0:12:40I'll read those again.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51- Now, then, Dave.- Lovely.- Welcome.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53What do you do up in Mansfield, Dave?

0:12:53 > 0:12:56- I'm a courier driver. Delivery driver.- Are you?- Yeah.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59- And how long have you been doing that?- Nearly 11 years.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01- Do you drive all over the country? - Yes, everywhere.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05Edinburgh, Glasgow, London - everywhere in the country.

0:13:05 > 0:13:08- What's the biggest kind of thing you deliver?- Um...

0:13:08 > 0:13:09Biomass chimney pots.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12Wow.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15OK, I'm trying to think how big they are - biomass chimney pots...

0:13:15 > 0:13:17- They're quite large.- They fit in the back of a van.- They're quite large.

0:13:17 > 0:13:20- Yeah, white van.- OK, I see. What is the most valuable?

0:13:20 > 0:13:22Have you ever had to have something handcuffed to your wrist?

0:13:22 > 0:13:25No - the most valuable part I delivered was an elephant...

0:13:28 > 0:13:31- Aww!- ..made out of polystyrene.- Ah.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34- It went to Twycross Zoo.- Wonderful.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Dave, what are your interests, when the deliveries are done?

0:13:37 > 0:13:39I like football, I like socialising...

0:13:39 > 0:13:43I'm a Mansfield Town fan, for my sins.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46Excellent - I was about to say, "What are your sins?"

0:13:46 > 0:13:48So, Dave, there you are on 27 - the high-scorers,

0:13:48 > 0:13:51Holly and Jordan, on 91. 63 more or less is all you need.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54This is all right, isn't it? It looks like a nice board, this one.

0:13:54 > 0:13:55It looks a lovely board, if you...

0:13:55 > 0:13:57- It's a high street at night to visit.- ..understand it.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59Um...

0:13:59 > 0:14:02I'm going to go for what I think might be quite high,

0:14:02 > 0:14:03and it's the second one down, banco,

0:14:03 > 0:14:05and go for bank.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09- Never know, eh? - Shot in the dark, Dave.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12Let's see - there's your red line.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15Can we get below that red line with bank? Let's see.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19It's right...

0:14:19 > 0:14:2090 for bank.

0:14:20 > 0:14:2390 for bank. Takes your total up to 117.

0:14:23 > 0:14:27- Yeah, you got a question 10 of our 100, there, haven't you?- Yeah.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30"Banco - banco. Well, it sounds like a bank,

0:14:30 > 0:14:32"but it's got an O on the end, so, I wonder if it's different."

0:14:32 > 0:14:35- Thank you a much. Jordan.- Hi!

0:14:35 > 0:14:37- Hi, welcome back.- Hello.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39- Remind us what you do, Jordan. - I'm a midwife.- A midwife.- Yes.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41See, that's just a lovely thing.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43- What's the most babies you've delivered in a day?- In a day?

0:14:43 > 0:14:45Three. I think three.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48It was a busy day. I mean, that's three lives being changed

0:14:48 > 0:14:51- in a miraculous, wonderful way. - Yeah.- Right before your very eyes.

0:14:51 > 0:14:53- It's a lovely job.- Oh! - Mm.- It must be...

0:14:53 > 0:14:57I mean, you can't ever, presumably, become inured to the magic of it.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00- No. I don't think so.- It must just be so exciting.- No, it's lovely.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03- It really is a fabulous job. - So exciting.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05I can't drive through Paddington without getting excited,

0:15:05 > 0:15:07where all our children were born,

0:15:07 > 0:15:10and even driving past the hospital, I think, "Ha, ha!"

0:15:10 > 0:15:13- It's great.- Yeah.- Anyway, there you are. 91 is your score.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15If you can happen to score 25 more or less, Jordan -

0:15:15 > 0:15:18and please do, we can't send you away too soon.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21Um... I'm struggling a little with the board,

0:15:21 > 0:15:23and I'm going to have to go with one that I feel

0:15:23 > 0:15:26is probably quite obvious, but safe -

0:15:26 > 0:15:28and it's the bottom one, cine.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30I think it might be cinema.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33- OK! Cinema.- Maybe.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35OK, I think that's probably good.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38There is your red line - let's see how far down the column we get

0:15:38 > 0:15:39with cinema for cine.

0:15:42 > 0:15:43It's right.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45Ohh!

0:15:45 > 0:15:47- 84, that's a big score, there.- Yeah.

0:15:47 > 0:15:5084 takes your total up to 175.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53Yeah, again, 16 people having trouble, there.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55- We've almost spelt the word out. - We have.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57We've literally left "ma" off.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01- Tougher now.- It is tougher, yes.

0:16:01 > 0:16:03It gets tougher.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05So, then...

0:16:05 > 0:16:07Ulf, welcome to Pointless.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09How great to have you here, from Sweden.

0:16:09 > 0:16:10What do you do, Ulf?

0:16:10 > 0:16:12I work for the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs -

0:16:12 > 0:16:15so, the equivalent of Foreign & Commonwealth Office.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17I see. I see - and you're posted, generally,

0:16:17 > 0:16:18for how long, when you...?

0:16:18 > 0:16:20- 3 to 5 years in each place. - 3 to 5 years.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22You slipped Pointless into your window, there.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24We'll be out of the country when this airs.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26- Oh, yes, that's good. - Which is good.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28Oh, that... Or not. Your moment of glory.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31Ulf, how exciting, so, in the Foreign Affairs,

0:16:31 > 0:16:33what department is your particular speciality?

0:16:33 > 0:16:37Here, I'm a generalist, so, I follow current affairs

0:16:37 > 0:16:41in the UK and EU affairs, and some sort of more wider foreign affairs.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43I see - but the job is really to liaise

0:16:43 > 0:16:45between our government and yours.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47British government, British authorities,

0:16:47 > 0:16:50and try to advise the government back home of...

0:16:50 > 0:16:53not so much what is going on, because they can read the papers,

0:16:53 > 0:16:56but try to analyse why things are happening.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58I see, so it's more commerce and trade

0:16:58 > 0:17:00rather than culture that you're in, is it?

0:17:00 > 0:17:03- More political affairs. - I see, that's exciting.- Yeah.

0:17:03 > 0:17:06- Very exciting.- So, he'll be reporting back on you, my friend.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08- He will!- Yeah.

0:17:08 > 0:17:11- The Swedish government are going to want to hear all about this.- Yeah.

0:17:11 > 0:17:12- Can you imagine?- Yeah.

0:17:12 > 0:17:15Next time you're in Stockholm Airport,

0:17:15 > 0:17:18they'll take a look at your passport and say, "I don't think so."

0:17:19 > 0:17:21Yeah. Thanks very much indeed.

0:17:21 > 0:17:24Now, Ulf, 47 is your score.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26It doesn't matter what you score here,

0:17:26 > 0:17:28you're still through to the next round -

0:17:28 > 0:17:29but have some fun with this board.

0:17:29 > 0:17:31Find a nice low-scoring answer, there.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33Yeah, I think I know two,

0:17:33 > 0:17:38but going to go for the one that I'm a bit more sure of.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41It's the third one, iglesia, and I think that's a church.

0:17:41 > 0:17:42Church. Iglesia.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44No red line, you're already through.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47Let's see how many of our 100 people went for church.

0:17:50 > 0:17:51It's right.

0:17:55 > 0:17:56Look at that - down to 28.

0:17:56 > 0:17:57APPLAUSE

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Almost our lowest score of the round - second lowest.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03- Takes your total up to 75.- Yeah.

0:18:03 > 0:18:04If you go to St Mary's Church,

0:18:04 > 0:18:06which is in Ashwell in Hertfordshire,

0:18:06 > 0:18:09they found graffiti which is written in Latin,

0:18:09 > 0:18:11one of which says, "The Archdeacon is an ass,"

0:18:11 > 0:18:15one of which says, "Barbara is a super young vixen,"

0:18:15 > 0:18:17and one of which says, "The corners are not jointed correctly.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19- "I spit on them."- Wow.

0:18:19 > 0:18:21Wow. In Latin.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23- It's angles. It's all about angles. - It's all about angles.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27- Angles and Saxons. - That's the ones.- Yeah.

0:18:27 > 0:18:28AUDIENCE GROANS

0:18:28 > 0:18:30- Yeah, thanks(!) - Thank you very much indeed.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Now I won't be able to get into Sweden.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37- Now, Imy. Welcome.- Hi.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40- Welcome to Pointless. From London. - Yeah.- And what you do, Imy?

0:18:40 > 0:18:43So, I've got two jobs that run alongside each other -

0:18:43 > 0:18:45one, I'm a stylist in Knightsbridge,

0:18:45 > 0:18:48the other one, I do session work, so, I do music videos,

0:18:48 > 0:18:49campaigns, fashion editorials...

0:18:49 > 0:18:51You do special session hairdressing?

0:18:51 > 0:18:54- Yeah, hair.- I see, phew - I thought for a moment maybe you were singing.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56- No!- I was picturing you with headphones on...

0:18:56 > 0:18:58I definitely can't sing.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00That's fabulous. You're based in Knightsbridge -

0:19:00 > 0:19:02a stylist there, where you work full-time?

0:19:02 > 0:19:03Yeah, and they're pretty lenient with me,

0:19:03 > 0:19:05so, when I want to go out and do a shoot,

0:19:05 > 0:19:07I can swap days off, and stuff, I've got an agent that sorts it out.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10Have you ever done backstage at a show, where it always looks like...

0:19:10 > 0:19:11Yeah, I've done...

0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Graduate Fashion Week was mental, because you do every show...- Yeah.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16..but everyone's climbing over each other,

0:19:16 > 0:19:19like, make up, nail technicians, trying to get in,

0:19:19 > 0:19:22- wardrobe steals them all the time, it's not... It's not easy!- No -

0:19:22 > 0:19:25- and all of them quite naked. - Yeah.- That's what happens backstage.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28- Really?- Yes, you do get a bit immune seeing naked bodies on shoots.- Yes.

0:19:30 > 0:19:31Yes...

0:19:31 > 0:19:34Now, Imy, there you are on 89.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36- Uh-huh.- Now, this exciting. - Yeah, thanks(!)

0:19:36 > 0:19:38This is exciting - you need to score 85 more or less.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40How's your Spanish, Imy?

0:19:40 > 0:19:42Um... The first one I'm thinking, maybe, amusements.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45The fourth one down, I'm thinking newsagents,

0:19:45 > 0:19:46but I don't know the other two.

0:19:46 > 0:19:50So, I think I'm going to go for the fourth one, for a newsagents.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54- A newsagents, where people get their paper.- Yeah.- OK, well, let's see.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57Papeleria. Let's see, is it a newsagents?

0:19:57 > 0:20:00Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:20:00 > 0:20:01There's your red line. It's quite high.

0:20:01 > 0:20:05It just has to be right. Is it right? Papeleria.

0:20:08 > 0:20:09No, bad luck.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11I'm sorry, Imy, I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.

0:20:11 > 0:20:15- Scores you 100 points. - Right.- Takes your total to 189.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18Sees Jordan and Holly May...

0:20:18 > 0:20:21Jasmine Gillingham Football Club Gould

0:20:21 > 0:20:24- into Round Two.- Again! - OK, very well done.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26Yeah, you and the only person who said that, Imy, I'm sure.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28It's even more basic the newsagents, papeleria.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30It's a stationers.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Would have scored you 2 points.

0:20:34 > 0:20:37There is one there that anyone with a bit of language knowledge

0:20:37 > 0:20:39- will be able to get, which is a panaderia.- Yeah.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41- Which is a bakers.- A bakers.- Yeah.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43Would have scored you 23. The other two, though, good luck.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45- Joyeria...- Is it a fun shop?

0:20:45 > 0:20:46Joyeria - it's not a fun shop,

0:20:46 > 0:20:48it's not amusements, anything like that.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51It's sort of looks like the word it would be over here...

0:20:51 > 0:20:53- I suddenly thought about it. Is it a jewellers?- It's a jewellers.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55- Oh, good.- Well done if you said that at home.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57- Which is a fun shop!- 7 points.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00- Well, it is a fun shop.- In many ways.- In some ways, it is.- Yeah.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02And correos...

0:21:02 > 0:21:04- Again, sort of...- Is it a biscuit?

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Well, you know what? It speaks slightly to Dave's job, courier,

0:21:07 > 0:21:10- mail - it's a post office. - Post office, oh, that makes sense.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12It would have scored you 15 points.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15So, papeleria is the best answer there. Well done if you said that.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17There we are. Thank you very much, Richard.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20At the end of our first round, the pair we have to say goodbye to,

0:21:20 > 0:21:22with their high score of 189,

0:21:22 > 0:21:23it's Imy and Gerry.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25It was close. You're in the right sort of ballpark.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27We have to say goodbye. We'll see you next time,

0:21:27 > 0:21:28I'm sure you'll do much better.

0:21:28 > 0:21:31In the meantime, thank you very much, Imy and Gerry.

0:21:31 > 0:21:32APPLAUSE

0:21:34 > 0:21:37For the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43Well done everybody -

0:21:43 > 0:21:46we made it through the Spanish high street round.

0:21:46 > 0:21:48You'll have noticed one of our pairs has gone.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50Let's not worry about that.

0:21:50 > 0:21:51At the end of this round,

0:21:51 > 0:21:53we'll have to say goodbye to another pair, though.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55I don't know which pair that's going to be.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Anyway, best of luck to all three pairs.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:22:04 > 0:22:06who's going to go second?

0:22:06 > 0:22:08Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:22:11 > 0:22:13OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:22:15 > 0:22:22to name as many 2016 Formula 1 drivers as they could. Richard.

0:22:22 > 0:22:25Yeah, looking for the names of any of the 22 drivers

0:22:25 > 0:22:29who started the first Grand Prix of the 2016 Formula 1 season, please.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33Thank you very much indeed. Yoshi, do you follow Formula 1?

0:22:33 > 0:22:36No, but...

0:22:36 > 0:22:39Oh, God, I really hope I've got this right, um...

0:22:39 > 0:22:41Kimi Raikkonen.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43Kimi Raikkonen says Yoshi.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Kimi Raikkonen.

0:22:48 > 0:22:49It's right.

0:22:55 > 0:22:57Look at that, 9! APPLAUSE

0:22:57 > 0:22:59Single figures, there, Yoshi. Well done.

0:22:59 > 0:23:009 for Kimi Raikkonen.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05Well played, Yoshi. Yeah, the 2007 world champion.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08- Drove for Ferrari in 2016. - Thanks very much, Richard.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10- Jordan.- Hi!

0:23:10 > 0:23:13- Formula 1.- Yeah. - Are we happy with Formula 1?

0:23:13 > 0:23:14Um...

0:23:14 > 0:23:17Not massively, but I can think of a couple

0:23:17 > 0:23:20- that I'm hoping that are going to be right, so...- Good.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24I think I'll probably go for Sebastian Vettel.

0:23:24 > 0:23:27Sebastian Vettel says Jordan.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Let's see if that's right. Sebastian Vettel.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36It's right. Well, 9 is our only score so far.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40We land on 28 with Sebastian Vettel.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42APPLAUSE

0:23:44 > 0:23:46The other Ferrari driver, Vettel,

0:23:46 > 0:23:48became the youngest ever world champion in 2010,

0:23:48 > 0:23:51and then proceeded to win the next four world titles, as well.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54Thank you very much, Richard. Now, Dave.

0:23:54 > 0:23:59I'm not really a Formula 1 follower, to be fair, but I think...

0:23:59 > 0:24:02is Rubens Barrichello one?

0:24:02 > 0:24:04Rubens Barrichello. Let's find out, Dave.

0:24:04 > 0:24:07Very good way, quick way, indeed, to see if that's a good answer.

0:24:07 > 0:24:10How many of our 100 people said Rubens Barrichello?

0:24:13 > 0:24:14No.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16Not for a bit, I'm afraid.

0:24:16 > 0:24:19That's an incorrect answer, scores you 100 points, Dave.

0:24:19 > 0:24:20Yeah, sorry, Dave - was one,

0:24:20 > 0:24:22but hasn't been for a few years, Rubens Barrichello.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.

0:24:25 > 0:24:27Let's look at the scores. 9 the best score of the pass.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30- Very well done, Yoshi.- Thank you. - Yoshi and Ulf, I have a feeling

0:24:30 > 0:24:32you're going to be in our head-to-head.

0:24:32 > 0:24:33Now, Jordan and Holly,

0:24:33 > 0:24:35it's looking like you might be in our head-to-head, as well,

0:24:35 > 0:24:37- for the second time running. - Somehow!

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Well, we shall see - but, yes, that's in your hands, Holly.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41- Yes, it is.- Jane, there you are, out in front.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43We need a nice, low score from you

0:24:43 > 0:24:45if you're to stay with us at the end of this round.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47Best of luck. We'll come back down the line now.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:24:52 > 0:24:53OK, so, remember,

0:24:53 > 0:24:56we're looking for any driver who started the 2016 Formula 1 season.

0:24:56 > 0:25:01- Jane, I'm going to say you're not looking thrilled.- No.- No.- Um...

0:25:02 > 0:25:04I only know two.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06So Jenson Button.

0:25:06 > 0:25:08Jenson Button, says Jane.

0:25:08 > 0:25:10OK, no red line for you, as you're the high scorers.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13Let's see how far down the column we get with Jenson Button.

0:25:19 > 0:25:2264. 64, not bad.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24164 is your total.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26The McLaren driver, another world champion as well,

0:25:26 > 0:25:30- 2009 world champion.- Thank you very much indeed.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32- Now, Holly.- Hi.

0:25:32 > 0:25:33- Listen. I have news for you.- Yes?

0:25:33 > 0:25:36You are in the head-to-head for the second time running.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39- You're kidding!- I... LAUGHTER

0:25:39 > 0:25:42I absolutely... I am incapable of kidding.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45Even if you score 100 points, does not matter.

0:25:45 > 0:25:46But I think you might have a good answer.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48What are you going to go for?

0:25:48 > 0:25:52I think I'm going to go for a young guy called Max Verstappen.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55Max Verstappen. OK, let's see if that's right.

0:25:55 > 0:25:56No red line, you're already through.

0:25:56 > 0:25:59Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:26:01 > 0:26:02It's right.

0:26:03 > 0:26:07Well, 9 is our lowest individual score so far.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09You pass it.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12That is a pointless answer, Holly. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:26:12 > 0:26:13Very well done indeed.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16That adds £250 to today's jackpot,

0:26:16 > 0:26:18takes our total up to £1,250.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21It scores you nothing, and is just brilliant. Well done.

0:26:21 > 0:26:2328 is your total.

0:26:23 > 0:26:24Now, this is very interesting,

0:26:24 > 0:26:27because he's the youngest ever winner of a Formula 1 race.

0:26:27 > 0:26:28He will never be pointless again.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30This poll was taken before that race.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32He will be one of the most famous ones

0:26:32 > 0:26:34very, very, very quickly, Max Verstappen.

0:26:34 > 0:26:38Started the season at Toro Rosso, and then was promoted to Red Bull.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40There we are. Thank you, Richard.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43Ulf. You, too, are through to the head-to-head,

0:26:43 > 0:26:45no matter what you score.

0:26:45 > 0:26:50- But I just think you've got another good answer there.- Well, I hope so.

0:26:50 > 0:26:52- Can I talk out loud, or should I...? - Yeah.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54That's the kind of talking that I like!

0:26:54 > 0:26:56LAUGHTER

0:26:56 > 0:26:59There is a Swedish driver that I should say,

0:26:59 > 0:27:04but I cannot remember if his first name is Magnus or Marcus.

0:27:04 > 0:27:07- I think his name is Marcus Ericsson. - Marcus Ericsson. OK.

0:27:07 > 0:27:12But since I'm not 100% sure, I'm going to go with Daniil Kyvat.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15Daniil Kyvat. No good line for you, you're already through.

0:27:15 > 0:27:19Let's see how far down the column we get with Daniil Kyvat.

0:27:22 > 0:27:23It's right.

0:27:26 > 0:27:27Ulf...

0:27:29 > 0:27:31Stops at 4! It stops at 4.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34Very, very well done indeed. Takes your total up to 13.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36Once again, the lowest score of the round.

0:27:36 > 0:27:37Yeah, Daniil Kyvat.

0:27:37 > 0:27:41Now, funnily enough, he was the Red Bull driver who was relegated

0:27:41 > 0:27:43to make way for Max Verstappen, poor old Kyvat.

0:27:43 > 0:27:47- He's back with Toro Rosso?- He is back at Toro Rosso, absolutely.

0:27:47 > 0:27:51There was a Swedish driver in the race, it was Marcus Ericsson,

0:27:51 > 0:27:52and it was a pointless answer as well.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54- GROANING - Should have gone for it!

0:27:54 > 0:27:57Should have gone for it. That would have been fun.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59- You'll never get his name wrong again, though.- No.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01Another couple of pointless answers.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03Pascal Wehrlein Kevin Magnussen and Carlos Sainz.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05Very well done if you said any of those.

0:28:05 > 0:28:087 for Daniel Ricciardo, 12 for Felipe Massa,

0:28:08 > 0:28:1117 for Fernando Alonso. 24 for Nico Rosberg.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14We've heard Vettel and Button already.

0:28:14 > 0:28:17And 88 for the Lewis Hamilton. 88.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19There we are. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22So, at the end of our second round, the pair we have to say goodbye to

0:28:22 > 0:28:26with their high score of 164, Jane and Dave, I'm afraid it is you.

0:28:26 > 0:28:27We'll see you again next time, though.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29- I hope you'll go much, much further.- Thank you.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32In the meantime, thank you so much, Jane and Dave.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:28:34 > 0:28:38But, for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:28:42 > 0:28:45Well, congratulations, Ulf and Yoshi, Holly and Jordan,

0:28:45 > 0:28:47you're now one step closer to the final and a chance

0:28:47 > 0:28:52to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at £1,250.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54Well, we've reached the head-to-head,

0:28:54 > 0:28:57which means you're now allowed to confer before you give you answers.

0:28:57 > 0:28:59The first pair in this round to win two questions

0:28:59 > 0:29:00will be playing for that jackpot.

0:29:00 > 0:29:02Very, very best of luck to both pairs.

0:29:02 > 0:29:03Let's play the head-to-head.

0:29:09 > 0:29:12Here is your first question. And it concerns...

0:29:16 > 0:29:18- Richard?- Yeah, we're going to show you five sets of sisters now,

0:29:18 > 0:29:21all of whom make part of the line-up of some famous bands.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24You just have to name the bands these sisters are in, please.

0:29:24 > 0:29:25Best of luck.

0:29:25 > 0:29:28Thank you very much indeed. Let's reveal our five band line-ups.

0:29:28 > 0:29:29And here they are.

0:29:53 > 0:29:57There you go. Five bands of sisters.

0:29:57 > 0:29:59Now then, Ulf and Yoshi, you've been our low scorers,

0:29:59 > 0:30:01so you will go first.

0:30:01 > 0:30:07All right. We'll have a guess on A. Pointer Sisters.

0:30:07 > 0:30:11A, Pointer Sisters, say Ulf and Yoshi. Pointer Sisters.

0:30:11 > 0:30:13Now, Holly and Jordan.

0:30:13 > 0:30:16- Yeah?- That board's all yours. Do you want to talk us through it?

0:30:16 > 0:30:20We're fairly sure and C, which is The Cheeky Girls,

0:30:20 > 0:30:23- and D, The Nolans.- Mm-hm.

0:30:23 > 0:30:26- B and E are a little bit... - Iffy.- Yeah.

0:30:26 > 0:30:30I think one of them might be Sister Sledge, but I don't know.

0:30:30 > 0:30:33- We couldn't tell you which ones. - So...- What do you want to go for?

0:30:33 > 0:30:35- Shall we just go for C, then?- Yeah.- C?

0:30:35 > 0:30:38- We'll just go for C, The Cheeky Girls.- Cheeky Girls.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41So we have The Pointer Sisters and we have The Cheeky Girls.

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Ulf and Yoshi said that A is The Pointer Sisters.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people got that.

0:30:46 > 0:30:47The Pointer Sisters.

0:30:49 > 0:30:50Ooh!

0:30:50 > 0:30:53Not The Pointer Sisters, A.

0:30:53 > 0:30:55Which means, Holly and Jordan, you only have to be right with C,

0:30:55 > 0:30:58The Cheeky Girls, and you will win this point.

0:30:58 > 0:31:01Let's see how many of our 100 people said The Cheeky Girls.

0:31:04 > 0:31:05It's right.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10Scored 58. But the crucial thing is it was right.

0:31:10 > 0:31:14It means, Holly and Jordan, after one question, you are up 1-0.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17Yeah, there's a slight knot to unravel here. Holly and Jordan,

0:31:17 > 0:31:20you said you thought one of them was Sister Sledge, and you're right.

0:31:20 > 0:31:23- That one is A. - Oh!- That is Sister Sledge.

0:31:23 > 0:31:26And that would have scored you 20.

0:31:26 > 0:31:27Now, B...

0:31:27 > 0:31:29is The Pointer Sisters.

0:31:29 > 0:31:30GROANING

0:31:30 > 0:31:33And would have scored you 9 points.

0:31:34 > 0:31:37D is the Nolans, the biggest scorer by a long way -

0:31:37 > 0:31:38would have scored you 79.

0:31:38 > 0:31:41And a pointless answer if you knew The Staple Singers.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44Very well played. Very good answer if you got that at home.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47Thank you very much indeed, Richard. OK, here comes your second question.

0:31:47 > 0:31:49Holly and Jordan, you get to answer this one first.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52But Ulf and Yoshi, you have to win this one to stay in the game,

0:31:52 > 0:31:54so very, very best of luck.

0:31:54 > 0:31:57Our second question today is all about...

0:32:00 > 0:32:01Richard.

0:32:01 > 0:32:04We're going to show you the names now of five British Birds Of Prey,

0:32:04 > 0:32:07but with alternate letters removed. Can you fill in those gaps, please?

0:32:07 > 0:32:10OK, let's reveal our British Birds Of Prey, and here they are.

0:32:10 > 0:32:12We have...

0:32:23 > 0:32:24I'll read those again.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38Holly and Jordan will go first.

0:32:38 > 0:32:43I think we'll go for the fourth one down, and say sparrowhawk.

0:32:43 > 0:32:46Sparrowhawk, say Holly and Jordan. Sparrowhawk.

0:32:46 > 0:32:50Now then, Ulf and Yoshi. Do you want to talk us through that board?

0:32:50 > 0:32:53Well, the top one's golden eagle,

0:32:53 > 0:32:56then it's peregrine falcon, buzzard...

0:32:56 > 0:32:59I think peregrine falcon, but what do you...?

0:32:59 > 0:33:03- Yeah, I think so. Yeah. - So, yeah, peregrine falcon.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05Peregrine falcon, say Ulf and Yoshi.

0:33:05 > 0:33:08So we have sparrowhawk and peregrine falcon.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Holly and Jordan said sparrowhawk.

0:33:10 > 0:33:13Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.

0:33:16 > 0:33:17It's right.

0:33:20 > 0:33:2242...

0:33:23 > 0:33:24..for sparrowhawk.

0:33:26 > 0:33:29Now, Ulf and Yoshi, meanwhile, have gone for peregrine falcon.

0:33:29 > 0:33:30Let's see if that's right,

0:33:30 > 0:33:32let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:33:35 > 0:33:36It's right.

0:33:37 > 0:33:41Oh! 65 for peregrine falcon.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44Which means very well done indeed, Holly and Jordan -

0:33:44 > 0:33:47after only two questions, you through to the final, 2-0.

0:33:47 > 0:33:50APPLAUSE

0:33:52 > 0:33:55Yes, just the bottom one would have saved you there,

0:33:55 > 0:33:59because golden eagle would have scored 71.

0:33:59 > 0:34:02And buzzard a very, very big score - 93.

0:34:02 > 0:34:04The bottom one would have won you the point.

0:34:04 > 0:34:06- And it's hobby.- Hobby.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09Hobby is the answer, and would have scored you 32 points.

0:34:09 > 0:34:10Thank you very much indeed.

0:34:10 > 0:34:13So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:34:13 > 0:34:17it's Ulf and Yoshi. Well, what a performance right across the show.

0:34:17 > 0:34:20Low score after low score after low score, and then suddenly,

0:34:20 > 0:34:22in this round, you came up against the juggernaut

0:34:22 > 0:34:26that is Holly and Jordan's process through to the final.

0:34:26 > 0:34:27We'll see you again next time,

0:34:27 > 0:34:29and I'm sure you'll do just as well if not better then.

0:34:29 > 0:34:32But, meantime, thank you very much indeed, Ulf and Yoshi.

0:34:32 > 0:34:36- Thank you. - APPLAUSE

0:34:36 > 0:34:40But, for Holly and Jordan, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:34:43 > 0:34:44Well, congratulations, Holly and Jordan.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46You've seen off all the competition,

0:34:46 > 0:34:48and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:34:48 > 0:34:50- Yes!- Yay!

0:34:55 > 0:34:57You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:34:57 > 0:35:03At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,250.

0:35:03 > 0:35:04Well, look at that, you've done it.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06- I know! - What a great show you've had today.

0:35:06 > 0:35:10A pointless answer, 2-0 in the head-to-head, let us not forget.

0:35:10 > 0:35:13What would help you get a jackpot round,

0:35:13 > 0:35:15what sort of things would you like to see out there?

0:35:15 > 0:35:19- We're both quite clued up on popular music.- Film...

0:35:19 > 0:35:21Film, and I'm very big football fan.

0:35:21 > 0:35:25- So football would be great, just for me.- Not so much for me.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27Fashion would be OK for Jord.

0:35:27 > 0:35:29OK. Well, very, very best of luck.

0:35:29 > 0:35:30Let's see what today's categories are.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33You know what it's like, you have to pick one of the four.

0:35:33 > 0:35:35Today's selection looks like this. We've got...

0:35:41 > 0:35:42Erm...

0:35:42 > 0:35:44- Dreams could be anything.- Yeah.

0:35:44 > 0:35:48- 1950s Film Musicals, I don't think we would be able to think of a strong one.- Probably not.

0:35:48 > 0:35:49More recent musicals, we'd be OK.

0:35:49 > 0:35:52So do you just want to go for The Letter D and see what comes up?

0:35:52 > 0:35:56- The Letter D?- Letter D.- The Letter D, I think.- The Letter D it is.

0:35:56 > 0:35:58OK, very best of luck. Three very different questions here,

0:35:58 > 0:36:00I hope at least one of them suits you.

0:36:00 > 0:36:03We are looking for any country of the world

0:36:03 > 0:36:05that begins or ends in the letter D.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08As always, by country, I mean a sovereign state that's a member of the UN in its own right.

0:36:08 > 0:36:12We are looking for any chemical element, as of March 2016,

0:36:12 > 0:36:15that contains the letter D anywhere in its name.

0:36:15 > 0:36:18Or we are looking for any Best Picture Oscar winners that

0:36:18 > 0:36:20contain the letter D in their title.

0:36:20 > 0:36:23All the way from 1928 up to the 2016 ceremony.

0:36:23 > 0:36:27So any country that begins or ends with D, or any chemical element or

0:36:27 > 0:36:29Best Picture Oscar winner that contain the letter D

0:36:29 > 0:36:31anywhere in their name.

0:36:31 > 0:36:32Very, very best of luck. As always,

0:36:32 > 0:36:35it's the short-form name of the country that we're looking for.

0:36:35 > 0:36:38- Thank you.- Thank you very much indeed. Now, as always, you've got

0:36:38 > 0:36:41up to one minute to come up with three answers, and all you need to win that jackpot

0:36:41 > 0:36:44is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:36:44 > 0:36:45- Are you ready?- Yes, thank you.

0:36:45 > 0:36:47OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.

0:36:47 > 0:36:49There they are, your time starts now.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52- OK, go.- Damascus, what's that, is that a city or a country?

0:36:52 > 0:36:55- I would say that's a city. - OK, that's wrong.

0:36:55 > 0:36:57Best Picture, did The Departed win?

0:36:58 > 0:37:03- With Leonardo DiCaprio? I'm not sure.- Yeah, maybe.

0:37:03 > 0:37:07Wait, chemical elements that contain the letter D. Erm...

0:37:07 > 0:37:10- "Contain" the letter D. - Yeah, just anywhere...

0:37:10 > 0:37:12Oxides then, anything like that?

0:37:12 > 0:37:14I hope, for trying to get answers!

0:37:14 > 0:37:16Aluminium...?

0:37:16 > 0:37:19The only ones I can think of are the ones with "ium" and the end.

0:37:19 > 0:37:23I'm try to think of another film for Best Picture.

0:37:23 > 0:37:24What won it this year?

0:37:25 > 0:37:28- I can't think...- What was that one Oprah Winfrey did with...?

0:37:28 > 0:37:30It didn't win Best Picture.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32- OK.- Countries?

0:37:32 > 0:37:35- Dominican Republic.- Yeah.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37Dominican Republic of Congo?

0:37:39 > 0:37:42- Ten seconds.- I don't know, try that out.- I think...

0:37:42 > 0:37:45- I can't...- Erm...- Oh!

0:37:45 > 0:37:48- A Best Picture with D.- Oh...

0:37:48 > 0:37:50- OK, we just... - OK, that is your time up.

0:37:50 > 0:37:53- Oh, that's hard!- OK, let's think about this, let's get three answers

0:37:53 > 0:37:55from all your thinkings there.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58- What are you going to go for? - I think we'll go for The Departed.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01- The Departed. - As Best Picture Oscar winner.- OK.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04- Erm...- The Dominican Republic of Congo, I think, for country?

0:38:04 > 0:38:08- If you want to.- Yeah, the Dominican Republic of Congo. For a country.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10- The Dominican Republic of Congo? - Yeah.

0:38:10 > 0:38:13And we'll go with aluminium oxide for a chemical element.

0:38:13 > 0:38:15And aluminium oxide. OK.

0:38:15 > 0:38:18Now, of those three, which do you think is your best shot

0:38:18 > 0:38:19at a pointless answer?

0:38:19 > 0:38:21- None of them.- Maybe The Departed. - LAUGHTER

0:38:21 > 0:38:23The Departed, we'll put last.

0:38:23 > 0:38:26OK, let's put that last. Least likely to be pointless?

0:38:26 > 0:38:28The country, because I think that's going to be wrong.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31- The Dominican Republic of Congo. - Yeah.- OK, we'll put that first. OK.

0:38:31 > 0:38:34Well, let's put those answers up on the board in that order then.

0:38:34 > 0:38:36And here they are. We have got...

0:38:41 > 0:38:44Well, very best of luck. Three good answers on the board.

0:38:44 > 0:38:49If one of them is pointless, it wins you that jackpot. £1,250.

0:38:49 > 0:38:51What would you do with it? Holly?

0:38:51 > 0:38:54I would probably like to treat my mum to a nice holiday,

0:38:54 > 0:38:56something like that. She's done a lot for us,

0:38:56 > 0:38:59- so I would like to give it to her more than anything.- Very nice.

0:38:59 > 0:39:03- Jordan?- I'm going to sound really selfish now.

0:39:03 > 0:39:08I would probably put it towards splurging on something really

0:39:08 > 0:39:12- expensive, like a pair of shoes or a handbag or something.- Very good.

0:39:12 > 0:39:14Well, best of luck, best of luck.

0:39:14 > 0:39:17Three answers, only one of them has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19Let us find out how they stand.

0:39:19 > 0:39:22Now, your first answer was the Dominican Republic of Congo.

0:39:22 > 0:39:26In this case, we're looking for any countries that begin or end with D.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29This one you thought was least likely to be pointless, you're not sure if it's right.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32Let's see if it is, obviously, it has to be right and then

0:39:32 > 0:39:34pointless for you to win the jackpot for £1,250.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36Let's see how many people said it.

0:39:39 > 0:39:42- Never mind.- I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.

0:39:42 > 0:39:46- So we move on to your next answer. - Yeah.- Which is aluminium oxide.

0:39:46 > 0:39:48In this case, we were looking for any chemical element that

0:39:48 > 0:39:49- contains the letter D.- Yeah.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52Again, it has to be right and pointless for you to win.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56So, for £1,250, let's see how many people said aluminium oxide?

0:39:59 > 0:40:02- No, bad luck.- Never mind!

0:40:02 > 0:40:04Bad luck. I'm afraid, two incorrect answers so far,

0:40:04 > 0:40:06which means we move onto your third and final answer,

0:40:06 > 0:40:07which is The Departed.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10In this case, we're looking for any Best Picture Oscar winner

0:40:10 > 0:40:13containing the letter D. You've gone for The Departed.

0:40:13 > 0:40:15It has to be right.

0:40:15 > 0:40:17- It has to be pointless. - It's unlikely.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19If it's both of those things, you'll win £1,250.

0:40:19 > 0:40:21How many people said The Departed?

0:40:25 > 0:40:27- Ooh, it's right!- Oh, thank God.

0:40:27 > 0:40:30Now, your first answer, Dominican Republic of Congo, was incorrect.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32Your second answer, aluminium oxide, was incorrect.

0:40:32 > 0:40:35But The Departed is absolutely right, down we go,

0:40:35 > 0:40:38through single figures, still going down, still going down!

0:40:38 > 0:40:40You've done it! APPLAUSE

0:40:40 > 0:40:43- Very well done indeed.- Thank you!

0:40:43 > 0:40:45- Superb.- Oh, my God, thank you.

0:40:45 > 0:40:47Absolutely brilliant.

0:40:50 > 0:40:52What about that?

0:40:52 > 0:40:55Aw!

0:40:55 > 0:40:59That's lovely. What a nice surprise for Mrs Gould.

0:40:59 > 0:41:02Wonderful, congratulations. The Departed was a pointless answer.

0:41:02 > 0:41:05That means you go home with that jackpot of £1,250.

0:41:05 > 0:41:07Very, very well done, Holly and Jordan.

0:41:07 > 0:41:09APPLAUSE

0:41:12 > 0:41:14Very well done. Listen, Holly and Jordan,

0:41:14 > 0:41:16you've been brilliant fun for two shows now.

0:41:16 > 0:41:19Thank you so much, I'm so glad we're sending you away with the money.

0:41:19 > 0:41:22Clear up the answers. You're mixing up two countries with the Dominican Republic of Congo.

0:41:22 > 0:41:25- There's the Dominican Republic, which would have scored three points.- OK.

0:41:25 > 0:41:27And there's the Democratic Republic of Congo,

0:41:27 > 0:41:30which was a pointless answer, funnily enough.

0:41:30 > 0:41:32That's what I was thinking!

0:41:32 > 0:41:34I tell what, you have to say one thing about midwives,

0:41:34 > 0:41:36is they know how to deliver, right?

0:41:36 > 0:41:38That was very, very, very impressive.

0:41:38 > 0:41:41There's only two pointless answers in the countries one.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43Let's take a look at them.

0:41:47 > 0:41:48Very well done if you said either of those.

0:41:48 > 0:41:51Chemical elements containing the letter D.

0:41:51 > 0:41:53Aluminium oxide's not an element, it's a compound.

0:41:56 > 0:41:57Our old friend, rutherfordium.

0:41:57 > 0:42:00Also darmstadtium, indium and mendelevium.

0:42:00 > 0:42:02They were all pointless answers.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04Now, the one where you got your pointless answer,

0:42:04 > 0:42:06our 100 people did not cover themselves in glory here.

0:42:06 > 0:42:10Some very, very, very well known pointless answers.

0:42:10 > 0:42:12Let's take a look at a few of them.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17Gladiator, a pointless answer.

0:42:17 > 0:42:19Schindler's List is a pointless answer.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21A Beautiful Mind, Around The World In 80 Days, Birdman,

0:42:21 > 0:42:24Cavalcade, Driving Miss Daisy, Gandhi, Grand Hotel,

0:42:24 > 0:42:27It Happened One Night, Million Dollar Baby, My Fair Lady,

0:42:27 > 0:42:29No Country For Old Men, Ordinary People, Terms Of Endearment,

0:42:29 > 0:42:32The Bridge On The River Kawi, The Broadway Melody.

0:42:32 > 0:42:33The Godfather, The Godfather Part II,

0:42:33 > 0:42:36The Great Ziegfeld and The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King.

0:42:36 > 0:42:39The Lost Weekend and West Side Story.

0:42:39 > 0:42:41They were all pointless answers.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Very well done if you got any of those at home.

0:42:43 > 0:42:44And congratulations, a very nice category,

0:42:44 > 0:42:47and wonderful performance. It's been our pleasure, hasn't it?

0:42:47 > 0:42:51Hasn't it just. Thank you very much, Richard, and thanks once again to our winning

0:42:51 > 0:42:55players, Holly and Jordan, who go away with today's jackpot of £1,250.

0:42:55 > 0:42:56Brilliant.

0:42:56 > 0:42:57APPLAUSE

0:42:59 > 0:43:03Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.

0:43:03 > 0:43:05- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.

0:43:05 > 0:43:08And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.

0:43:08 > 0:43:09APPLAUSE
