0:00:16 > 0:00:17APPLAUSE

0:00:21 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:25 > 0:00:27the show where the aim of the game is to find the most

0:00:27 > 0:00:30obscure answer possible. Let's meet today's players.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36And couple number one.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39Hi, I'm David, this is Stuart, and we are friends from Edinburgh.

0:00:39 > 0:00:40Couple number two.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43I'm Sarah, this is my husband Mike,

0:00:43 > 0:00:45and we're from Otley in West Yorkshire.

0:00:45 > 0:00:46Couple number three.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49I'm Francesca, this is Liam, we're friends from Cardiff.

0:00:49 > 0:00:51And, finally, couple number four.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54I'm Joel, this is my girlfriend Iris, and we are from London.

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

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Thanks so much all of you, welcome to Pointless.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03We'll get to chat to you throughout the show, of course, as it goes along.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.

0:01:05 > 0:01:09Coming over here, checking our facts, explaining our answers,

0:01:09 > 0:01:11it's my Pointless friend - it's Richard.

0:01:11 > 0:01:15Hiya. Hi, everybody, good afternoon.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18- Good afternoon to you. - Good afternoon to you.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20Now, we're on the verge of a Pointless record,

0:01:20 > 0:01:22or equalling a Pointless record anyway.

0:01:22 > 0:01:24We've had five jackpot wins in a row.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Six is the most we've ever had in a row before.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29We had five in a row and now Rash and Tony winning it on Golf,

0:01:29 > 0:01:30very impressively as well.

0:01:30 > 0:01:33Two returning pairs from that show, Francesca and Liam,

0:01:33 > 0:01:35they got through to Round Two, and David and Stewart,

0:01:35 > 0:01:36who were head-to-headers,

0:01:36 > 0:01:39so two fairly strong pairs for our newcomers to take on.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42Should be exciting. Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44So, as you gather, Rash and Tony won the jackpot last time,

0:01:44 > 0:01:48which means we start off today's show with a jackpot of £1,000.

0:01:48 > 0:01:51There it is. Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59So, remember, it's the pair with the highest score at the end of

0:01:59 > 0:02:00each round who will be eliminated.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02That's all you have to remember.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04Otherwise, very, very best of luck to all four pairs.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08Our first category this afternoon is...

0:02:12 > 0:02:15I've never yet read out a first category without somebody going...

0:02:15 > 0:02:16HE SIGHS

0:02:16 > 0:02:17LAUGHTER

0:02:17 > 0:02:19It's Album Titles, on this occasion.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:02:22 > 0:02:23who's going to go second?

0:02:23 > 0:02:26And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32OK, and the question concerns...

0:02:35 > 0:02:36Debut Studio Albums. Richard.

0:02:36 > 0:02:40On each pass, we're going to show you the names of seven debut studio albums,

0:02:40 > 0:02:42but we've missed out a word from each title.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44Can you fill in those words, please?

0:02:44 > 0:02:47There's 14 in all to have a go at at home. Good luck.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50OK, so we're looking for the missing words from these album titles.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Here's our board of seven. And it reads like this...

0:03:11 > 0:03:13I'm going to read those all one last time.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15It's really hard not to put in the missing word.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29There we are. Phew, made it.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31- Stuart, welcome back.- Thank you.

0:03:31 > 0:03:32Remind us what you do, Stuart.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35- I'm a motivational speaker. - See, that's just fabulous.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37How long have you been a motivational speaker?

0:03:37 > 0:03:39I've been doing it for about a year and a half.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41Do you ever have downtime as a motivational speaker?

0:03:41 > 0:03:44- Or are you just on it the whole time? Woo!- No, a lot of downtime.

0:03:44 > 0:03:48OK, how many doors do you go through without doing a sort of stack of

0:03:48 > 0:03:50hands with people before you walk through it?

0:03:50 > 0:03:52- I actually tried that earlier and nobody was up for it.- Oh, really?

0:03:52 > 0:03:54LAUGHTER

0:03:54 > 0:03:55Strange, that. Stewart, now,

0:03:55 > 0:03:58what about our missing words from our album titles?

0:03:58 > 0:04:03There are a few... There's a lot there that I think I know,

0:04:03 > 0:04:06and a couple that I definitely know, but I think might score quite high,

0:04:06 > 0:04:08so mixed feelings about that.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11I'm going to go for Oasis, and Definitely Maybe.

0:04:11 > 0:04:12Definitely Maybe, says Stuart.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Let's see how many of our 100 people remembered Definitely Maybe.

0:04:19 > 0:04:20It's right.

0:04:23 > 0:04:2452, not bad.

0:04:24 > 0:04:25APPLAUSE

0:04:25 > 0:04:28- Not bad, good start. - Nice start, yeah,

0:04:28 > 0:04:31Noel Gallagher wrote most of that album when he was working as a

0:04:31 > 0:04:32subcontractor for British Gas.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34That I didn't know.

0:04:34 > 0:04:38- Yes.- That I didn't... I didn't even know he was a subcontractor for British Gas.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40Blimey, every day's a school day for you, isn't it?

0:04:40 > 0:04:42Isn't it? Sarah, welcome to Pointless.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46- Lovely to have you here from Otley. - Thank you. Otley in West Yorkshire.

0:04:46 > 0:04:47Lovely, very nice indeed.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49What keeps you busy up there?

0:04:49 > 0:04:50What keeps me busy at the moment,

0:04:50 > 0:04:55we're renovating a really old farmhouse on the top of Otley Chevin,

0:04:55 > 0:05:00which is a real sort of geographical focal point of the town.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03It's right on the edge of a forest, it's beautiful.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05That's been a year in the making.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07Do you do renovation and then move on, and renovate and move on,

0:05:07 > 0:05:09or will you be renovating this and staying?

0:05:09 > 0:05:12We are staying. We are never doing this again.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14This has been a really stressful experience so we are never doing

0:05:14 > 0:05:16another one, we are staying here.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Good stuff. Now, Sarah, what about these albums?

0:05:18 > 0:05:21OK, I did panic a little when it was anything to do with music.

0:05:21 > 0:05:22I know a couple...

0:05:24 > 0:05:27..but they're going to be high-scorers,

0:05:27 > 0:05:30and I'll have to go for Baby One More Time, Britney Spears.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32Baby One More Time says Sarah.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35Let's see how many of our 100 people got Baby One More Time.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46There we are, 31.

0:05:46 > 0:05:47APPLAUSE

0:05:47 > 0:05:50Interesting, in the Maybe/Baby stakes,

0:05:50 > 0:05:54actually, Maybe scoring higher than Baby, there, which is unexpected.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Yeah, written by Swedes, that song.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00It was written by Max Martin and various others who have written

0:06:00 > 0:06:01number ones for everybody in the world,

0:06:01 > 0:06:03but they thought that "hit me" meant "call me",

0:06:03 > 0:06:06so it's actually, "Call me, baby, one more time."

0:06:06 > 0:06:10- Which is nicer.- It's slightly nicer, yeah.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Francesca.

0:06:12 > 0:06:16- Hi.- Welcome back to Pointless. - Thank you.- Here from Cardiff.- Yes.

0:06:16 > 0:06:17Remind us what you do, Francesca.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20I'm an English teacher and a learning and skills coach.

0:06:20 > 0:06:24Now, when you put all your teaching and learning behind you,

0:06:24 > 0:06:27- what do you like to get up to? - I'm a massive film and TV buff.

0:06:27 > 0:06:31That's why yesterday was kind of a bit of a disappointment,

0:06:31 > 0:06:35cos it was a great category, but we didn't do as well as we wanted.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37No, you should have done better there,

0:06:37 > 0:06:39but this time, Francesca, on your second appearance.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41- It was Round Two last time.- Yes.

0:06:41 > 0:06:44At least head-to-head this time, if not further.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46Francesca, what are you going to go for on this board?

0:06:46 > 0:06:49- How are you liking it? - Erm, it's not great,

0:06:49 > 0:06:51but there is one that jumps out at me.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54And it's The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill says Francesca,

0:06:56 > 0:06:59let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10APPLAUSE

0:07:10 > 0:07:11There we go, 6!

0:07:11 > 0:07:14Start as you mean to go on, Francesca. That's a superb answer.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19Well played, Francesca. Great answer, great album as well.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22- Thanks, Richard. Iris, welcome to Pointless.- Hi.

0:07:22 > 0:07:24- Lovely to have you here. - Thank you.- What do you do, Iris?

0:07:24 > 0:07:27- I'm a food blogger.- What particular kind of food do you blog on?

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Healthy food, like vegan food.

0:07:29 > 0:07:32Very good. So you are a vegan, you follow a healthy vegan diet?

0:07:32 > 0:07:35- Yes, that's right.- How long have you been doing that for?

0:07:35 > 0:07:36About a year and a half, now.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Very good, and when you're not blogging,

0:07:38 > 0:07:40what other things do you like getting up to?

0:07:40 > 0:07:44I like yoga, I like swimming, I like going to the gym, dinner parties.

0:07:44 > 0:07:45All of these things are fun, excellent.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Now, Iris, this board is all yours,

0:07:47 > 0:07:50if you want to go through it and fill in all our blanks...

0:07:50 > 0:07:52I'm a bit scared now because I was going to for Lauryn Hill.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58I think I'm going to take a guess for Tom Odell album,

0:07:58 > 0:08:00the Long Way Home.

0:08:00 > 0:08:01Long Way Home, says Iris.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04Let's see if Home was the right thing to guess,

0:08:04 > 0:08:06let's see how many of our 100 people got it if it is.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17No. Not the Long Way Home. That scores you 100 points, Iris.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20Yeah, if you're going to guess one, though, it's a good one to guess

0:08:20 > 0:08:23cos there's not many words that can fit there, but it's not Home,

0:08:23 > 0:08:24- it's Long Way Down.- Down.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27Yeah, unlucky. It would've scored you 11 points.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30Are you Experienced?

0:08:30 > 0:08:34Jimi Hendrix Experience. 13 points for that.

0:08:34 > 0:08:37- I Dreamed A...- Dream.- ..Dream.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41Would have scored you 83 points, I Dreamed A Dream.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Did you sing that when you dressed up as Susan Boyle on television?

0:08:44 > 0:08:45It is exactly what I sang. LAUGHTER

0:08:45 > 0:08:50It is worth a moment of your time, YouTubing Xander as Susan Boyle,

0:08:50 > 0:08:51singing I Dreamed A Dream.

0:08:51 > 0:08:55Please, please, take a look at it. Not now, during the news.

0:08:55 > 0:08:56And top one?

0:08:56 > 0:08:59- Hopes?- Hopes And Fears, absolutely, by Keane. Great album.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03That would have scored 18, so the best answer on the board, Francesca,

0:09:03 > 0:09:04is Lauryn Hill. Well played.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Very well done. We're halfway through the round.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08Let's take a quick recap of those scores.

0:09:08 > 0:09:096 is where we find Francesca and Liam,

0:09:09 > 0:09:12then we travel up to 31, Sarah and Mike.

0:09:12 > 0:09:1552, Stewart and David,

0:09:15 > 0:09:17and then 100, Iris and Joel.

0:09:17 > 0:09:18So, Joel, we need a low score from you,

0:09:18 > 0:09:21and let's hope that's enough to keep you in the game.

0:09:21 > 0:09:22It's far too soon to be sending you back.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24We're going to come back down the line now.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:09:30 > 0:09:33OK, we're going to put seven more album titles on the board

0:09:33 > 0:09:34and here they come.

0:09:35 > 0:09:36We have got...

0:09:51 > 0:09:53I'm going to read those all again.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07Now, Joel. Good to have you here.

0:10:07 > 0:10:14- What do you do, Joel?- I'm a software developer and branding specialist.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16What kind of software do you...?

0:10:16 > 0:10:18Actually, currently, I'm working on a dating app

0:10:18 > 0:10:21and I'm creating the brand story behind the dating app.

0:10:21 > 0:10:22Oh, now, that's fun.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24Do you do that from home or is there a sort of...?

0:10:24 > 0:10:28We actually have a lovely Notting Hill office with a nice rooftop

0:10:28 > 0:10:31where we kind of catch the rays and catch some ideas.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33Oh, that's fantastic.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Now, Joel, there you are. You're on 100.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38We need a low score. What are you going to go for from our board here?

0:10:38 > 0:10:42I think I will go for Lady GaGa and The Fame.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44The Fame, says Joel.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46The Fame. Let's see how many of our 100 people

0:10:46 > 0:10:49said The Fame for Lady GaGa.

0:10:57 > 0:10:58Look at that!

0:10:58 > 0:11:024! I said you needed a low score and that's exactly what you got.

0:11:02 > 0:11:06Our lowest score of the round so far, 4, taking your total up to 104.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09- Is it enough, I wonder?- Put yourself right back in it there, Joel.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Well played. Yeah, number one album in the UK.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13Won a Brit for Best International Album as well.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Thanks very much, Richard.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17- Liam.- Hello.- Welcome back. - Thank you.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20Here from Cardiff. Remind us what you do, Liam.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22I am a customer service advisor for an energy company.

0:11:22 > 0:11:26And when not advising customers, what do you get up to?

0:11:26 > 0:11:29I read comic books, read films about the comic books...

0:11:29 > 0:11:32Sorry, watch films about the comic books, even,

0:11:32 > 0:11:34collect things to do with said comic books.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36I see, so comic books, pretty much it?

0:11:36 > 0:11:39Yes, so if we could have something like that...

0:11:39 > 0:11:40I might regret saying that.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42Are you complaining about the round? LAUGHTER

0:11:42 > 0:11:44- I am.- Is it a formal complaint?

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Especially because I'm aggrieved that my answer has gone. Already.

0:11:47 > 0:11:51"Aggrieved." You see? I like that. I like that a lot.

0:11:51 > 0:11:52Now, Liam, there you are. You're on 6.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55- You couldn't have been better set up by Francesca...- Yes.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58..which means 97 or less is your target.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01Essentially, what we are looking for from you is a correct answer.

0:12:01 > 0:12:05I believe I can give you a correct answer, if I remember correctly,

0:12:05 > 0:12:08and I think that Craig David is Born To Do It.

0:12:08 > 0:12:12Born To Do It. I hope this is right cos I just dread to think how

0:12:12 > 0:12:16- aggrieved you'll be if it isn't. - I'll just walk off in a huff!

0:12:16 > 0:12:19Here's your red line. Get below that and you're through to Round Two.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22Let's see how many of our 100 people said Born To Do It.

0:12:25 > 0:12:26It's absolutely right.

0:12:31 > 0:12:32Look at that, 10.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37Very well done indeed. 16, our lowest total of the round.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40- I can say that with confidence. - Yeah, great work, Liam. Well played.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43It comes from a line in Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory,

0:12:43 > 0:12:44that title. How about that?

0:12:44 > 0:12:46It doesn't sound like it does, but it does.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48There we go. Thank you.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50Now then, Mike. Welcome.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53- Welcome.- Welcome here from Otley.

0:12:53 > 0:12:54And what do you do, Mike?

0:12:54 > 0:13:01I'm a shopper researcher, so we explore how people shop.

0:13:01 > 0:13:02That's interesting.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05Do you explore it by pouncing out on them in shopping centres with

0:13:05 > 0:13:07- questionnaires?- We...we take them shopping.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09That's fun!

0:13:09 > 0:13:13- We watch and explore what they do. - Oh, that's nice.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15How often are you massively surprised

0:13:15 > 0:13:17by the shopping habits of people?

0:13:17 > 0:13:19Or does it generally follow what you might...?

0:13:19 > 0:13:22There's some quite strange people out there.

0:13:22 > 0:13:23LAUGHTER

0:13:23 > 0:13:25No, they're perfectly normal people

0:13:25 > 0:13:28who just have interesting tastes, Mike.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Mm... I've done it a long time.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32There's some quite strange people.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34Now, Mike, you have been pretty well set up.

0:13:34 > 0:13:3772 or less gets you through to the next round.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40Oh, no... No, you're not happy.

0:13:40 > 0:13:41Not my top subject.

0:13:42 > 0:13:48I'm going to go with - and hope I'm right - The Who and My Life.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51My Life. My L-l-l-life.

0:13:51 > 0:13:53Let's see if that's right.

0:13:53 > 0:13:54Here is your red line.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57How many of our 100 people went with My Life?

0:14:01 > 0:14:03I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer and I'm afraid

0:14:03 > 0:14:06that scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 131.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08However, the round is not yet over.

0:14:08 > 0:14:09You could still be in.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13Yeah, sorry, Mike. I'll give the correct answers at the end of the pass.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15Thank you very much indeed.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Now then, David.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20- Welcome back.- Thank you. - Remind us what you do, David.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23I'm about to move to Vietnam to become an English teacher.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25This is what we discovered last time.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27- We did.- Yeah, you have all but finished your last job...

0:14:27 > 0:14:30- Yes.- ..and off you head with your girlfriend?

0:14:30 > 0:14:32With my girlfriend, yeah.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34Do you know where you're going to be living?

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Not quite. We think Ho Chi Minh City.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39That's quite exciting. Quite nice that it's completely up in the air.

0:14:39 > 0:14:40It's a great adventure, so...

0:14:40 > 0:14:42And you're going to be teaching out there.

0:14:42 > 0:14:44Yes. Mostly children, schoolchildren.

0:14:44 > 0:14:45I see. OK. That's going to be fun.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48- Yeah, really good fun.- Best of luck with that and best of luck with this,

0:14:48 > 0:14:50David, let's not forget. 52 is your score.

0:14:50 > 0:14:5278 is your target.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55What would you like to go for? Would you like to fill in our blanks?

0:14:55 > 0:14:56I can try.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59I'll rule out Derek And The Dominos cos I've never heard of them.

0:14:59 > 0:15:01I think they're before my time, so...

0:15:01 > 0:15:03GASPING AND LAUGHTER

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Blimey O'Reilly!

0:15:09 > 0:15:10Before your time(!)

0:15:10 > 0:15:12The English language was before your time,

0:15:12 > 0:15:14you're still going to go and teach it!

0:15:14 > 0:15:15LAUGHTER

0:15:15 > 0:15:19The Who, probably before my time, but My Generation, I think it is.

0:15:19 > 0:15:22Life Thru A Lens, I think is Robbie Williams.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24Guns N' Roses, I think, is Appetite For Destruction,

0:15:24 > 0:15:26but I'm not sure.

0:15:26 > 0:15:30And then The Killers, like... I'm obsessed with The Killers,

0:15:30 > 0:15:31so I really should know that.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34They're Hot Fuss, so I'm going to go with Hot Fuss.

0:15:34 > 0:15:35Hot Fuss, says David.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Here's your Red Line. Get below this red line with Hot Fuss

0:15:38 > 0:15:40and you are happily through to Round Two.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Let's see how many of our 100 people said Fuss.

0:15:45 > 0:15:46It's right.

0:15:46 > 0:15:47And you're through.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53That's a good answer, 13.

0:15:53 > 0:15:57Very well done indeed. Taking your total up to 65.

0:15:57 > 0:16:01Yes, some good answers on that pass. Well played, everybody.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04You're right about The Who, it's not My Life, it is My Generation.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06I'm sure you know that, and would have scored you 52 points.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08A big scorer.

0:16:08 > 0:16:10Appetite For Destruction, you're right about that as well.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13Guns 'N' Roses. Would have scored 27.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16Life Thru A Lens, Robbie Williams. 33.

0:16:16 > 0:16:20And you can probably guess this with their most famous song...

0:16:20 > 0:16:23- Layla.- Ah!- Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs.

0:16:23 > 0:16:2412 points for that.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27So, Fame, best answer on the board, Joel. Well played.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29There we are. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31We're at the end of our first round and I'm sorry to say we have to say

0:16:31 > 0:16:33goodbye to one of our lovely pairs

0:16:33 > 0:16:35and, on this occasion, it is Mike and Sarah.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38The good news is, we see you again next time,

0:16:38 > 0:16:40but I'm so sorry. My Generation, come on, Mike!

0:16:40 > 0:16:42We went to see them last year, I wouldn't mind!

0:16:42 > 0:16:45LAUGHTER Sarah, piling insult to injury!

0:16:45 > 0:16:47They were very loud!

0:16:47 > 0:16:50- Famously, they are. - They were fantastic.- Oh, dear.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Anyway, listen, we will see you again next time.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54I'm sure you will go much, much further.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57- Meantime, thank you so much, Mike and Sarah.- Thank you.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02But, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10Down to three pairs now. Gets a little bit more exciting.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13At the end of this round, obviously, we will have to say goodbye to

0:17:13 > 0:17:15another pair. Francesca and Liam,

0:17:15 > 0:17:17just, well done. Two lovely low scores.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20Miseducation and Born. Very good indeed.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23Keep that up and we should see you through to the head-to-head.

0:17:23 > 0:17:24Best of luck to all three pairs.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...

0:17:27 > 0:17:28Chemistry.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Chemistry. Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:17:32 > 0:17:34who is going to go second?

0:17:34 > 0:17:36And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42OK, let's find out what our question is.

0:17:42 > 0:17:47Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:17:51 > 0:17:52..as they could.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55This is fun, isn't it?

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Elements beginning with any of those letters.

0:17:58 > 0:17:59P-E-R-I-O-D-I-C.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02I like that we've repeated "I" there, just to remind you.

0:18:02 > 0:18:06- Richard.- Yeah, we are looking for any element of the periodic table

0:18:06 > 0:18:08that begin with the letters of the word periodic.

0:18:08 > 0:18:09I will actually say something,

0:18:09 > 0:18:13which is, this is as of April 2016, which is important to say,

0:18:13 > 0:18:15cos they are adding some new elements to the periodic table,

0:18:15 > 0:18:17which is going to be very exciting

0:18:17 > 0:18:21for future Pointless rounds, but doesn't count yet. But will do soon.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24- It will.- That's going to be exciting.- I can't wait.

0:18:24 > 0:18:28And they've asked if we would name one of them in recognition of our

0:18:28 > 0:18:31help towards people's understanding of the periodic table.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34- Pointlessium.- I've called it Armstrongium.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37- Aww!- That's nice, isn't it? What are you going to call yours?

0:18:37 > 0:18:39I've also gone for Armstrongium.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Isn't that awful? I feel terrible now.

0:18:41 > 0:18:42LAUGHTER

0:18:42 > 0:18:44That's OK. That says a lot.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Thanks very much indeed. So, remember,

0:18:46 > 0:18:48it's any chemical element that begins with one of the letters

0:18:48 > 0:18:51from the word "periodic". We throw it open to you, David.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56Trying to remember back to chemistry at high school.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00I'd remember back to previous episodes of Pointless, if I were you.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03That's where you remember really low-scoring elements, but...

0:19:03 > 0:19:07- Yeah.- I'm going to go for polonium.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09- Polonium.- Yeah.- Polonium, says David.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11Let's see how many of our 100 people said polonium.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24Look at that. Wonderful! APPLAUSE

0:19:24 > 0:19:263, David. 3 for polonium.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29- Very strong.- Terrific start to the round.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32Yeah, named after Poland, which is where it was discovered,

0:19:32 > 0:19:33by Marie and Pierre Curie.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Hmm. Thank you very much indeed.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38Francesca.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40- SHE SIGHS - Hmm.- Hmm.

0:19:40 > 0:19:44Oh, is this not...is this not...? This is not comfortable territory.

0:19:44 > 0:19:48No. Not at all. This is just horrendous.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50- Oh, I'm sorry.- But I think I will go for O...

0:19:53 > 0:19:54..osmium.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57What are you talking about? That's a great answer!

0:19:57 > 0:19:58Oh, or is it? Oh, I don't know!

0:19:58 > 0:20:01- Let's find out. Osmium. - Jeopardy. You never know!

0:20:01 > 0:20:04How many of our 100 people said osmium? Is it right?

0:20:07 > 0:20:09It is right.

0:20:09 > 0:20:133 is our only score at this point. Let's see where osmium ends up.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17Oh, look at that. 2 for osmium.

0:20:17 > 0:20:18APPLAUSE

0:20:22 > 0:20:24Yeah, osmium. That's why I've called it Armstrongium,

0:20:24 > 0:20:25cos I've already got one.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Yeah, that's why. They wouldn't allow osmium.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30Named after me because it's dense and hard to work with.

0:20:30 > 0:20:31LAUGHTER

0:20:32 > 0:20:34Thanks very much indeed.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Now, Iris.

0:20:36 > 0:20:40We didn't have a lot of chemistry in school, full stop.

0:20:40 > 0:20:42That's a kind of, "During my time, but..."

0:20:42 > 0:20:46- No, no, no. I went to art school from the age of four, so...- What?!

0:20:46 > 0:20:48Chemistry wasn't as...high up.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50- How cool is that?- Art school from the age of four?

0:20:50 > 0:20:53- That's brilliant.- Yeah. - Where were you schooled?

0:20:53 > 0:20:55Nijmegen, the Netherlands.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57- Right.- God, that's the Netherlands all over, isn't it?

0:20:57 > 0:21:00- Art school from four.- I know. Free spirited.- That's why...

0:21:00 > 0:21:03We discovered the other day that the Netherlands

0:21:03 > 0:21:05- are very happy people all round.- Yeah.- That's why.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08That's why. Art school from the age of four?

0:21:08 > 0:21:12- How about that?- Oh, I'm sorry, throwing this on you.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15That's OK. I will guess and say iron.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18- Iron, says Iris.- Iron.

0:21:18 > 0:21:21OK, let's see how many of our 100 people went with iron.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33Wow. 33.

0:21:34 > 0:21:3833 for iron. 33 for iron?

0:21:38 > 0:21:39- I would have...- Yes.- Yeah.

0:21:39 > 0:21:42Well, I think iron is one of those things that people don't quite think

0:21:42 > 0:21:44is an element sometimes, because it doesn't end "-ium"

0:21:44 > 0:21:47or something like that, and people feel like it's just something

0:21:47 > 0:21:50- you might find in the street. - Hmm.- Which you would.

0:21:50 > 0:21:55- Which you do, quite often.- Yeah. Discovered by Benedict Any Old.

0:21:55 > 0:21:56LAUGHTER

0:22:00 > 0:22:02Thank you very much indeed.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Well, listen, we're halfway through the round.

0:22:04 > 0:22:07I think it's time we have a look at those scores and see where we are.

0:22:07 > 0:22:092 is where we find Francesca and Liam,

0:22:09 > 0:22:113 is where we find David and Stuart,

0:22:11 > 0:22:14and 33 is where we Iris and Joel.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17So, yes, Joel, you have a little bit to do here.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19Who knows what'll happen in the next pass?

0:22:19 > 0:22:22Good luck for you. We're going to come back down the line now.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:22:27 > 0:22:28Now, then, Joel.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31We are looking for chemical elements that begin with any of the letters

0:22:31 > 0:22:33of the word "periodic".

0:22:35 > 0:22:37Er...

0:22:39 > 0:22:43Actually having a tiny bit of a brain freeze here, but...

0:22:43 > 0:22:48I think I will also try the letter I and go for iodine.

0:22:48 > 0:22:49Iodine, says Joel.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Let's see how many of our 100 people said iodine.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54Now, there's no red line for you as you're the high-scorers,

0:22:54 > 0:22:56but let's see how far down the column we can get with iodine.

0:23:00 > 0:23:01It's right.

0:23:05 > 0:23:0722. Not bad.

0:23:09 > 0:23:1155 is your total.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Yeah, named after the Greek word for "violet", iodine.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17Thank you very much, Richard.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19- Liam.- Yes.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22Liam. Well, that's nice and comfortable, I think.

0:23:22 > 0:23:23A bit of a margin there.

0:23:23 > 0:23:27- Yeah.- You can score 52 or less and still get through.- Yeah.

0:23:28 > 0:23:31I don't know if I should hedge my bets and go for something

0:23:31 > 0:23:33I definitely know or something I think

0:23:33 > 0:23:36could potentially be pointless.

0:23:36 > 0:23:37Erm...

0:23:37 > 0:23:40It is right, so I'm going to go for Rutherfordium.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Rutherfordium, says Liam.

0:23:42 > 0:23:44OK. Here is your red line.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47If you get below that with Rutherfordium, hooray.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49- I think it's right.- Well, exactly.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51Let's find out if Rutherfordium is right,

0:23:51 > 0:23:52let's see how many people said it.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57It is right. That was a risk worth taking,

0:23:57 > 0:24:00and it gets you through, unsurprisingly.

0:24:00 > 0:24:01Rutherfordium...

0:24:01 > 0:24:03Ooh! Stopping off at 3. Look at that.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06Very well done indeed. Taking your total up to 5.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08- Very well done. - Terrific answer, Liam.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Very well played. And you can see as well,

0:24:10 > 0:24:13you knew for a fact that it was one, but when you're under those lights,

0:24:13 > 0:24:15suddenly you can't trust anything.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18Named after Greg Rutherford, the long jumper.

0:24:18 > 0:24:19LAUGHTER

0:24:19 > 0:24:22Thank you very much indeed. Now, Stuart.

0:24:22 > 0:24:26There you are on 3. 51 or less get you through.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29How are you on chemistry, generally?

0:24:29 > 0:24:32I didn't do it at school. I was more of a physics kind of guy at school.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35More of a... More of a tachograph kind of guy.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38That was me. What would you like to go for?

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Well, I'm using the school of thought

0:24:40 > 0:24:42of previous Pointless episodes.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44- That's how I do it.- Rutherfordium was one I had in mind, however,

0:24:44 > 0:24:47- I am going to go for Californium. - Californium. Exactly.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49All of this learned from Pointless.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52I've got one as well, actually, up my sleeve. Learnt from Pointless.

0:24:52 > 0:24:53- Up your sleeve?- Yeah, literally.

0:24:53 > 0:24:56- If it's a new one... - Oh, hello, hello, hello!

0:24:56 > 0:24:58- Alexandrium.- Mm!

0:24:58 > 0:25:00Californium. There is your red line.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02If you can get below that, you're through to the next round.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05Let's see how many of our 100 people said Californium.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13There you are, you're through.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Look at that, 4. Lovely low-scoring.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20Very well done indeed. Taking your total up to 7.

0:25:20 > 0:25:21Another terrific answer, yeah.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24And that sounds like it should have been named after California,

0:25:24 > 0:25:26but it wasn't. Do you know what it was named after?

0:25:26 > 0:25:28No.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30No, it was named after California.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32- That would be crazy otherwise. - Oh, it would be.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34- What is your answer? - Mine is my new favourite.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37Literally, I've remembered it since the last time we played.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40- Protactinium.- Protactinium.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44- It's a pointless answer. - Get in!- Well done.- How about that?

0:25:44 > 0:25:46How about that?

0:25:49 > 0:25:50You can be very proud of yourself.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53Shall we have a look at the other pointless answers?

0:25:53 > 0:25:56- I think we should.- Again, some of these will be familiar to you.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03Pointless answer, well done if you said any of these.

0:26:05 > 0:26:06There's Protactinium.

0:26:06 > 0:26:07- There it is.- Well done.- Yeah.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13Those are all be pointless answers. Let's take a look at the top three.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15The ones most of our 100 people said.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17Here are the biggest answers.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20Iron, the third biggest answer with 33.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22Then carbon, 34.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24And oxygen, 48.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26There we are. Thank you very much, Richard.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28So, we are at the end of our second round

0:26:28 > 0:26:30and that means they have to say goodbye to another pair,

0:26:30 > 0:26:33and I'm afraid to say, Joel and Iris, it is you. I'm sorry.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36The periodic table did not smile kindly upon you this round,

0:26:36 > 0:26:38but we will see you again next time.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41- And I hope we'll have more art based questions for you, Iris.- Yes.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43But meantime, thanks very much for playing, Joel and Iris.

0:26:43 > 0:26:47Lovely contestants. APPLAUSE

0:26:47 > 0:26:50But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.

0:26:55 > 0:26:58Congratulations, Francesca and Liam, David and Stuart,

0:26:58 > 0:27:01you are now one step closer to the final and a chance to play

0:27:01 > 0:27:04for our jackpot, which currently stands at £1,000.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06Well, here it is, the head-to-head round.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Very well done. You've got this far.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11It means you're allowed now to confer before you give your answers

0:27:11 > 0:27:14and, in this round, the first pair to win two questions

0:27:14 > 0:27:16will be playing for that jackpot. Now, sometimes it can happen,

0:27:16 > 0:27:18that people get through to the head-to-head round

0:27:18 > 0:27:22just by dint of having been the two least-bad pairs.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25You know what I'm saying. This time round,

0:27:25 > 0:27:28you are most definitely the two best pairs. You have played so well.

0:27:28 > 0:27:29We've had incredible low scores.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32Very well done indeed.

0:27:32 > 0:27:35You've been here before, David and Stuart. Francesca and Liam, though,

0:27:35 > 0:27:40came from being our exitors at Round Two last time to our golden couple.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42So, very, very well done. This will be close, I think.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.

0:27:51 > 0:27:53And here is your first question.

0:27:53 > 0:27:54And it is all about...

0:27:58 > 0:28:01- Richard.- We are going to show you five pictures now of the casts

0:28:01 > 0:28:04of various medical TV shows. Can you name the shows, please?

0:28:04 > 0:28:07OK, let's reveal our casts of medical TV shows,

0:28:07 > 0:28:09and here they come. We've got...

0:28:40 > 0:28:41There we go.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43Five casts of medical TV shows.

0:28:43 > 0:28:48Francesca and Liam, you are our low scorers, so you will go first.

0:28:48 > 0:28:50- WHISPERING:- D's Nurse Jackie. - Yeah, D.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55We're going to go D - Nurse Jackie.

0:28:55 > 0:28:58Nurse Jackie, say Francesca and Liam for D.

0:28:58 > 0:29:01Nurse Jackie. Now, David and Stuart, the board is yours.

0:29:01 > 0:29:05- Talk us through it.- Well, that's the one that I don't think we knew.

0:29:05 > 0:29:07- We didn't know that.- We've got...

0:29:07 > 0:29:09A is Scrubs.

0:29:09 > 0:29:11And I think E is MASH.

0:29:11 > 0:29:13B is Casualty and C is ER.

0:29:14 > 0:29:16We'll go for A - Scrubs.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18OK, A - Scrubs.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20So, we have a Nurse Jackie and we have Scrubs.

0:29:20 > 0:29:23Francesca and Liam said Nurse Jackie for D. Let's see if that's right,

0:29:23 > 0:29:25let's see how many people said it.

0:29:27 > 0:29:28It's right.

0:29:34 > 0:29:37That's a good answer. Look at that. 6 for Nurse Jackie.

0:29:40 > 0:29:42Very strong answer there.

0:29:42 > 0:29:44Yes, David and Stuart, you might struggle to beat that,

0:29:44 > 0:29:48but let's see. You have said Scrubs for A.

0:29:48 > 0:29:51Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:30:00 > 0:30:0122.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05Not bad, but Nurse Jackie was going to be tough to beat there

0:30:05 > 0:30:09and well done, Francesca and Liam. After one question, you are up 1-0.

0:30:09 > 0:30:11Yeah, Xander said there'd been some low-scoring

0:30:11 > 0:30:13and those were the two best scores on the board,

0:30:13 > 0:30:16so well played, both teams, there. Couldn't have beaten Nurse Jackie.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19Casualty there would have scored you 62 points.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25ER...

0:30:25 > 0:30:29with George Clooney in the middle there, would have scored you 28.

0:30:29 > 0:30:32And MASH was even bigger then Casualty,

0:30:32 > 0:30:3363 points for MASH.

0:30:35 > 0:30:38Thank you very much indeed, Richard. So, here comes your second question.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40David and Stuart, and you get to answer it first,

0:30:40 > 0:30:42but you have to win it to stay in the game, remember.

0:30:42 > 0:30:46So, best of luck. Our second question is all about...

0:30:49 > 0:30:52- Richard.- Yeah, simply five clues now to fact about Vivian Westwood.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55- Can you give us the most obscure answer?- Thank you very much indeed.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58Let's reveal our five clues, and here they come.

0:30:59 > 0:31:00We have got...

0:31:23 > 0:31:25Let me read all of those again.

0:31:45 > 0:31:46David and Stuart will go first.

0:31:48 > 0:31:50Well, we know three of them.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53It's just, I guess, trying to work out what we think

0:31:53 > 0:31:55is going to be the... Let's go with the punk band?

0:31:55 > 0:31:58We think the punk band is the Sex Pistols.

0:31:58 > 0:32:00The Sex Pistols, say David and Stuart.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03So, Francesca and Liam, it's over to you.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05Do you want to fill in all those missing blanks?

0:32:05 > 0:32:07We'd love to, but we can't.

0:32:07 > 0:32:10- There's only the one that we know. - We know the obvious one.

0:32:10 > 0:32:13And the Happy singer who wore an oversized Westwood hat

0:32:13 > 0:32:14is Pharrell Williams.

0:32:14 > 0:32:17- Is that the one you're going to go for?- Yes.- OK, Pharrell Williams.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20So, we have the Sex Pistols and Pharrell Williams.

0:32:20 > 0:32:21David and Stuart went for the Sex Pistols.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.

0:32:32 > 0:32:33That's a good, solid answer.

0:32:33 > 0:32:3529 for the Sex Pistols.

0:32:37 > 0:32:41Meanwhile, Francesca and Liam have gone for Pharrell Williams.

0:32:41 > 0:32:42The Happy singer.

0:32:42 > 0:32:45Let's see how many of our 100 people got Pharrell Williams.

0:32:49 > 0:32:50There we are, it's right.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55- Wow.- Yes!- Wow!

0:32:55 > 0:32:5916. That's a turn up, isn't it?

0:32:59 > 0:33:01Pharrell Williams beating the Sex Pistols there.

0:33:01 > 0:33:04Which means, very well done indeed, Francesca and Liam,

0:33:04 > 0:33:07after only two questions, you are straight through to the final, 2-0.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09Very nicely played. Shall we fill in this board?

0:33:09 > 0:33:10Do you know the London Street?

0:33:10 > 0:33:12- Carnaby Street.- Not Carnaby Street.

0:33:12 > 0:33:14- Vivienne Westwood. Kings Road.- Ah.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16Kings Road. Would have scored you 3 points.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18The politician... You can probably take a guess at this.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20- Mrs Thatcher. - Yeah, Margaret Thatcher.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23Would have scored 20. And the musician, band manager...

0:33:23 > 0:33:27- Malcolm McLaren.- Malcolm McLaren. Yeah. That would have scored you 15.

0:33:27 > 0:33:29Actually, maybe it was McLaren's shop that was on Carnaby Street.

0:33:29 > 0:33:32He had a shop. Someone had a shop!

0:33:32 > 0:33:34SOMEONE definitely... Some people in the '70s had shops.

0:33:34 > 0:33:38There were definitely shops. Hold on, let me have a look.

0:33:38 > 0:33:40Yeah, there are definitely shops on Carnaby Street, yeah.

0:33:40 > 0:33:43There we are, good. Phew. Thank you very much indeed.

0:33:43 > 0:33:46So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:33:46 > 0:33:47David and Stuart, I'm so sorry.

0:33:47 > 0:33:49Twice now, you've been through to the head-to-head.

0:33:49 > 0:33:50Twice now, you've played

0:33:50 > 0:33:52exceptionally well throughout the show.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54Twice now, there's nothing wrong with your answers.

0:33:54 > 0:33:56You've just been beaten by lower scores.

0:33:56 > 0:33:59I mean, that's kind of the rules, isn't it? But there we are. Still,

0:33:59 > 0:34:01I'm sorry that we didn't get to see you in the final,

0:34:01 > 0:34:03but it's been great having you on the show.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05- Thank you so much for playing, David and Stuart.- Thank you.

0:34:05 > 0:34:07APPLAUSE

0:34:08 > 0:34:11But for Francesca and Liam, it is now time for our Pointless final.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17Congratulations, Francesca and Liam,

0:34:17 > 0:34:19you have seen off all the competition

0:34:19 > 0:34:22and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:34:30 > 0:34:33And the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,000.

0:34:33 > 0:34:36Well, we could be on our way to equalling our previous record

0:34:36 > 0:34:39of six consecutive giveaways of the jackpot,

0:34:39 > 0:34:41but let's just think about what you've done today.

0:34:41 > 0:34:44Fantastic. You've been our lowest scorers in Round One,

0:34:44 > 0:34:46lowest scorers in Round Two, 2-0 in the head-to-head,

0:34:46 > 0:34:50through to the final and we haven't even done comic books.

0:34:50 > 0:34:51- No.- It sounds great when you say it that way.

0:34:51 > 0:34:54Say it again, just run through that again. It's great.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57Now, as always, you get to choose your category in this round.

0:34:57 > 0:34:59Four things will appear on the board behind me

0:34:59 > 0:35:02and you just have to hope that there's something up there

0:35:02 > 0:35:04that you don't mind. Something that looks enticing.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06You know what they sometimes can look like,

0:35:06 > 0:35:09but there's usually a nicer sub set of questions behind each one,

0:35:09 > 0:35:10so don't worry too much.

0:35:10 > 0:35:13Today's selection looks like this.

0:35:14 > 0:35:15We've got...

0:35:23 > 0:35:25Actually, do panic. Yes.

0:35:25 > 0:35:28- What do you want to go for? - Historical Fiction looks good.

0:35:28 > 0:35:31I think I could give European Actresses a good shout.

0:35:31 > 0:35:33Train Stations, no. I think we should just ignore that one.

0:35:33 > 0:35:36- And Sport. No, just throw that out. - Yeah.- Straight away.- Yeah.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39- It's a nonstarter.- I think we could both give the second one a go.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41You would be on your own with the first one.

0:35:41 > 0:35:43OK. European Actresses it is.

0:35:43 > 0:35:46Yeah? We'll give European Actresses a go.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48OK, give them a go.

0:35:48 > 0:35:50- Richard.- OK, very, very best of luck.

0:35:50 > 0:35:53We've had five jackpot wins in a row, six would equal our record.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56Fingers crossed you do it. These are the three questions

0:35:56 > 0:35:57we are asking you...

0:35:57 > 0:36:00We're looking for any feature film made for cinema release

0:36:00 > 0:36:03for which Penelope Cruz has received an acting credit.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05For which Monica Bellucci has received an acting credit.

0:36:05 > 0:36:09Or for which Marion Cotillard has received an acting credit.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11So, according to IMDB, any feature film made for cinema release

0:36:11 > 0:36:13starring any one of those three.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15Very, very best of luck.

0:36:15 > 0:36:17OK, now, as always, you've got up to one minutes

0:36:17 > 0:36:20to come up with three answers and all you need to win that jackpot

0:36:20 > 0:36:22is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:36:22 > 0:36:24I'll remind you now, you don't have to answer all three of those

0:36:24 > 0:36:26categories, you can focus on whichever ones you like

0:36:26 > 0:36:29for your three answers. Are you ready?

0:36:29 > 0:36:32- Yeah.- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.

0:36:32 > 0:36:34There they are. Your time starts now.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36Penelope Cruz... Sahara.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38- Vanilla Sky.- Vanilla Sky.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40She was in all those Pedro Almodovar films as well.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42So, Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down.

0:36:42 > 0:36:44- Yeah, that one. Marion Cotar...- Cotillard.

0:36:44 > 0:36:46She was in Dark Knight Rises, but then that was a big film.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48But would people remember her name from it?

0:36:48 > 0:36:51Monica Bellucci was in the Matrix, wasn't she?

0:36:51 > 0:36:53Reloaded. Reloaded she was in.

0:36:53 > 0:36:54And Monica Bellucci...

0:36:54 > 0:36:58She was in Spectre, but stay far away from that, it's too recent.

0:36:58 > 0:37:01- OK.- But I would definitely say Penelope Cruz is a good,

0:37:01 > 0:37:04good shout even for... What was the first one I said? Sahara.

0:37:04 > 0:37:07Even that's a good shout. Penelope Cruz...

0:37:07 > 0:37:10Vanilla Sky. And what's the...? Is it definitely the one you said?

0:37:10 > 0:37:12- Lock Me Up, Tie Me... - Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down.

0:37:12 > 0:37:14That's the only one I really remember.

0:37:14 > 0:37:16- Yeah.- We can put in in there. - Definitely, definitely...

0:37:16 > 0:37:19I definitely think Marion Cotillard, she was in Chocolat.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22- Was she?- No. That wasn't. That was Juliette Binoche.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24- That's the one.- Ten seconds left.

0:37:24 > 0:37:26I think we should stick with Penelope Cruz, actually.

0:37:26 > 0:37:28- I think.- We can go for both of them.

0:37:28 > 0:37:30We can say Penelope Cruz and Monica Bellucci.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32Yeah, do you want to go with Matrix Reloaded for her?

0:37:32 > 0:37:34- Yeah. Let's give it a go.- Yeah. Yeah. OK, cool.

0:37:34 > 0:37:37OK, sounds like you've arrived at your three answers

0:37:37 > 0:37:39- just as your minute runs out.- Yeah. - Let's have those answers, then.

0:37:39 > 0:37:42OK, so, for Penelope Cruz, we will go Vanilla Sky and...

0:37:42 > 0:37:44- What was the one?- Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down.

0:37:44 > 0:37:45- Try that?- Yeah. Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down.

0:37:45 > 0:37:47Vanilla Sky. Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down.

0:37:47 > 0:37:49- And then what was the...? - Matrix Reloaded.

0:37:49 > 0:37:52- Matrix Reloaded for Monica Bellucci. - And The Matrix Reloaded.

0:37:52 > 0:37:55OK, of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:37:55 > 0:37:58- Monica Bellucci.- Matrix.- Yeah, Monica Bellucci on the fact

0:37:58 > 0:38:00that she's not maybe as well-known as the other two.

0:38:00 > 0:38:01OK, so we go for The Matrix Reloaded.

0:38:01 > 0:38:05Yeah. I think Vanilla Sky at the top.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07Now, Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down, because I'm not sure about that.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09OK, so, the first one will be Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down,

0:38:09 > 0:38:12second one will be... Vanilla Sky.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14- Vanilla Sky, yeah.- And then The Matrix Reloaded.

0:38:14 > 0:38:17OK, well, let's put those answers up on the board in that order then,

0:38:17 > 0:38:20and here they are. We've got...

0:38:24 > 0:38:26Very, very best of luck.

0:38:27 > 0:38:29Three good answers there.

0:38:29 > 0:38:32Now, if one of these turns out to be pointless, and why wouldn't it?

0:38:32 > 0:38:34You will win £1,000.

0:38:34 > 0:38:37You'd be the sixth pair, consecutively, to win the jackpot.

0:38:37 > 0:38:40What would you like to do with that, with that money?

0:38:40 > 0:38:43I would put it towards a new car. I really need one.

0:38:43 > 0:38:48- Very good. Liam? - Well, it's my 30th in a bit,

0:38:48 > 0:38:50and I would put it towards a Vegas trip, I think.

0:38:50 > 0:38:52- Very good.- So, yeah.

0:38:52 > 0:38:55- Very good.- That would be great. - Well, very, very best of luck.

0:38:55 > 0:38:57As I say, three good-looking answers there.

0:38:57 > 0:38:59Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down was your first answer and, in this case,

0:38:59 > 0:39:01we were looking for Penelope Cruz films.

0:39:01 > 0:39:03This was the one you thought was probably least likely

0:39:03 > 0:39:05to be pointless. You weren't entirely sure if it was right.

0:39:05 > 0:39:08If it is right and if it is pointless, it wins you £1,000.

0:39:08 > 0:39:10How many people said Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down?

0:39:13 > 0:39:15Ooh!

0:39:15 > 0:39:18Bad luck. I'm afraid an incorrect answer,

0:39:18 > 0:39:22which means move onto your next answer which is Vanilla Sky.

0:39:23 > 0:39:25In this case, again, we were looking for Penelope Cruz films.

0:39:25 > 0:39:28If this is right and it is pointless, it will win you £1,000.

0:39:28 > 0:39:30Let's see how many of our 100 people said Vanilla Sky.

0:39:34 > 0:39:38It is right. Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down, your first answer, was incorrect.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40Vanilla Sky absolutely on the money.

0:39:40 > 0:39:43Down it goes, through the 30s, into the 20s,

0:39:43 > 0:39:45into the teens, down we go. Still going down.

0:39:45 > 0:39:4710. We stop at 10.

0:39:47 > 0:39:48APPLAUSE

0:39:52 > 0:39:55That's a lovely low score. Sadly not a pointless answer, though,

0:39:55 > 0:39:57so we have to move onto your third and final answer,

0:39:57 > 0:39:59which was The Matrix Reloaded.

0:39:59 > 0:40:02Now, in this case, we were looking for Monica Bellucci films.

0:40:02 > 0:40:04This was the one that you thought was probably your best shot

0:40:04 > 0:40:06at a pointless answer. You put it first for that reason.

0:40:06 > 0:40:08If it is pointless, it wins you £1,000.

0:40:08 > 0:40:12Let's see how many of our 100 people said The Matrix Reloaded.

0:40:12 > 0:40:13Is it pointless?

0:40:18 > 0:40:22It's right. Your first answer was incorrect, your second answer,

0:40:22 > 0:40:24Vanilla Sky, took us down to 10.

0:40:24 > 0:40:27Your third and final answer now takes us down through the teens,

0:40:27 > 0:40:29we've passed 10. Into single figures, down it goes,

0:40:29 > 0:40:30still going down...

0:40:30 > 0:40:32I'm afraid we stop at 2.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36Ah, not bad, not bad.

0:40:36 > 0:40:39Not bad at all. That's a fabulous low score there,

0:40:39 > 0:40:41but I'm afraid you didn't manage to find

0:40:41 > 0:40:43that all-important pointless answer,

0:40:43 > 0:40:47so I'm afraid you don't become our sixth consecutive jackpot winners.

0:40:47 > 0:40:50That jackpot of £1,000 will rollover onto the next show,

0:40:50 > 0:40:52but what a strong performance.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54Amazingly strong right the way across the show.

0:40:54 > 0:40:572-0 in the head-to-head, no arguing with that.

0:40:57 > 0:40:59And you get to take home a Pointless trophy each, so very,

0:40:59 > 0:41:02very well done indeed. Thank you so much, Francesca and Liam.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04APPLAUSE

0:41:07 > 0:41:09That was very, very unlucky. Been a terrific partnership

0:41:09 > 0:41:12all the way through and you clearly know your films as well.

0:41:12 > 0:41:14We'll take you through the three answers and why you were unlucky.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17You went for Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down,

0:41:17 > 0:41:19because you said she's in lots of Almodovar films.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21She absolutely is, she's just not in that one.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23She's in Volver, which would have scored you 1.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25All About My Mother was a pointless answer.

0:41:25 > 0:41:27Broken Embrace was a pointless answer as well.

0:41:27 > 0:41:29So, lots of Almodovar pointless answers out there.

0:41:29 > 0:41:31You went for Matrix Reloaded.

0:41:31 > 0:41:35Matrix Revolutions was a pointless answer, she was in that as well.

0:41:35 > 0:41:37- I didn't think she was in it.- Yeah, she is indeed, I'm afraid.

0:41:37 > 0:41:41And you went for Vanilla Sky, but you were going to go for Sahara.

0:41:41 > 0:41:44- And Sahara was a pointless answer as well.- Ah, no!

0:41:44 > 0:41:49Let's take a look at the Penelope Cruz films that were pointless.

0:41:49 > 0:41:50Lots of answers here.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56Vicky Cristina Barcelona, The Woody Allen film.

0:41:56 > 0:41:57Lots of pointless answers there.

0:41:57 > 0:42:00Everything apart from Vanilla Sky, Blow, Captain Correlli's Mandolin,

0:42:00 > 0:42:03Volver, Noel and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.

0:42:03 > 0:42:05Everything else was pointless for her.

0:42:05 > 0:42:07Move on to Monica Bellucci.

0:42:13 > 0:42:16Everything there apart from Spectre, Matrix Reloaded,

0:42:16 > 0:42:18Irreversible and L'Appartement.

0:42:18 > 0:42:19Everything else was a pointless answer.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21Now, Marion Cotillard.

0:42:21 > 0:42:25La Vie En Rose was pointless for Marion Cotillard. Also...

0:42:30 > 0:42:32Everything for her apart from Macbeth,

0:42:32 > 0:42:36Inception and the Dark Knight Rises. Everything else a pointless answer.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38Very well done if you got one at home.

0:42:38 > 0:42:40- That's really unlucky, isn't it? - Really unlucky.

0:42:40 > 0:42:42Oh, I knew you should have gone for Sahara!

0:42:42 > 0:42:43I just felt it in my bones.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45I'm so sorry, though. You came so close,

0:42:45 > 0:42:49but what an astonishing display across the show.

0:42:49 > 0:42:51You've done very, very well. Sadly, though,

0:42:51 > 0:42:53Francesca and Liam didn't win our jackpot today,

0:42:53 > 0:42:55which means it rolls over on to the next show

0:42:55 > 0:42:58when we will be playing for £2,000. There it is.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02Join us next time to see if someone can win it.

0:43:02 > 0:43:05- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.

0:43:05 > 0:43:07And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
