0:01:03 > 0:01:05That leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09You've just missed him being carried in on his quiz-themed sedan chair.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34meant they went home in Round One.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36It's not going to happen again today, I hope, gents.
0:01:36 > 0:01:41But that's the kind of calibre you're up against, just to warn you.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43But it's going to be fun, I think.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45- I think it is.- They seem a lovely bunch.- Don't they?
0:01:45 > 0:01:46Sam and Jordan won the jackpot last time,
0:01:46 > 0:01:49so today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51There it is.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55APPLAUSE
0:01:57 > 0:02:01Now, remember this, if you remember nothing else, remember this,
0:02:01 > 0:02:03the pair with the highest score at the end of each round will be
0:02:03 > 0:02:05eliminated, so make sure
0:02:05 > 0:02:08you do whatever you can to keep those scores nice and low.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12Best of luck to all four pairs. Our first category today is...
0:02:15 > 0:02:16It's a People round.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29OK, so what is our People round all about?
0:02:29 > 0:02:32It is all about...
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- Richard.- Yeah, we're going to show you 16 pictures now of famous people
0:02:37 > 0:02:40who are known by the name Jack or Jackie.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Can you tell us the most obscure of these, please?
0:02:42 > 0:02:43Thank you very much indeed.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45So, we're going to put this picture up.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46It's going to have 16 faces on it.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49It will stay up, that image, for the whole round.
0:02:49 > 0:02:50Very, very best of luck.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Let's have a look at that image and see who is on it.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57There we are.
0:02:57 > 0:03:0016 Jacks and Jackies.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02Now, Megs, welcome to Pointless.

0:03:04 > 0:03:05What do you do, Megs?
0:03:05 > 0:03:08I'm a retired teacher with lots of hobbies.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Oh, lovely. So, let's... What did you teach when you taught?
0:03:11 > 0:03:14I had primary, a reception teacher, so I had the little ones,
0:03:14 > 0:03:15so all the subjects across the board.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Oh, lovely. How long did you teach for?
0:03:18 > 0:03:2038 years.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21Wow! Did you...?
0:03:21 > 0:03:23How many people that you taught first time round
0:03:23 > 0:03:25did you then teach their children?
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Erm, I was on to the grandchildren by the end.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30- Were you really?- Yeah.- Now, let's talk about your hobbies, Megs.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32What do you like doing with your time?
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Well, I like to Morris dance, I like to sing,
0:03:35 > 0:03:39I like to call at ceilidhs and I like to play the ukulele and sing.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42Oh, you could make a poem out of that. Call at ceilidh, play the ukulele...
0:03:42 > 0:03:44MEGS LAUGHS Morris dance.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Brilliant. Now, Megs,
0:03:46 > 0:03:51let's confront these Jacks and Jackies and see which
0:03:51 > 0:03:53is the lowest-scoring one you can find on that board.
0:03:53 > 0:03:58Well, I'm going to play it safe and go for Jack Black.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00- Jack Black...- Second from the right on the bottom row.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03..says Megs. OK, Jack Black.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Jack Black.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10It's very much right.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14There we go, 59. Not bad at all, Megs.
0:04:14 > 0:04:15APPLAUSE Good start to the round.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Yeah, both of his parents were engineers
0:04:17 > 0:04:20and they worked on the Hubble space telescope.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22- That doesn't surprise me somehow. - Does it not?
0:04:22 > 0:04:24- No.- What if I said it wasn't true? - GENTLE LAUGHTER
0:04:24 > 0:04:28- Would that surprise you? - Well, coming from you, no.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Well, they did...
0:04:30 > 0:04:33- They did?- ..n't... not, cos they did.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35LAUGHTER

0:04:37 > 0:04:40- Lovely to have you here.- Thank you. - What do you do in Guernsey?
0:04:40 > 0:04:47I co-own and run a company dedicated to fuelling gamers in healthy ways.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- That's interesting.- Yeah. - So, gamers...
0:04:50 > 0:04:52- Gamers.- So, what is it? A food? It's a food...?
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Yeah, so it's an online food store.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58Obviously, they're known for eating, you know, fairly bad food.
0:04:58 > 0:04:59Pizza, you know, that sort of thing.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Oh, I see. So, how do you go about that?
0:05:01 > 0:05:06With a really sort of very focused, targeted advertising campaign?
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Erm... Well, yeah, we attend lots of events up and down the country.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Erm, sort of online, yeah.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15- It's good.- Good idea. Is it working?- It's working, yes.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Good stuff. Now, Misha, Jacks and Jackies.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23Erm, not quite as confident as what I probably should be.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27But I'm going to go for... Jack Wilshere?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Jack Wilshere, says Misha.
0:05:30 > 0:05:35Let's see if that's right and let's see how many of our 100 people went for Jack Wilshere.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32- I'm Dutch.- I was going to say!
0:06:32 > 0:06:35I was going to say, you didn't sound entirely Essex to me.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39Now, Wilfred, how are you liking our board of Jackies and Jacks?
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Erm, I think I'm all right.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Are you always on the same beat, Sam?
0:07:16 > 0:07:19No, I'm a reserve. So I sort of fill in when...
0:07:19 > 0:07:22- You're a supply postman? - Yeah.- Oh, I see.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Does that mean you get up at 5:30?
0:07:24 > 0:07:26We established last time that Sam gets up 5:30
0:07:26 > 0:07:30every morning, sometimes, only just to stay at the depot.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32- Not to go out.- No... - You'll always go out?
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Yeah, I'd always find something to do...
0:07:34 > 0:07:36OK. OK, well that's good.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Otherwise you're the person who always gets the call up
0:07:38 > 0:07:41- if someone doesn't show up? - Yeah, that's pretty much spot on.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43I could have my day off and before you know it...
0:07:43 > 0:07:45- Even on your day off?- Before you know it, the phone's going.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49- 5:15?- Yeah, well, it would have to be five o'clock.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Anyway, there we are. Sam,
0:07:51 > 0:07:53what would you like to go for on our board of Jacks and Jackies?
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Well, I think I know a lot of them.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58I'm a big sports fan, so I'm going to go for what I think is a sports
0:07:58 > 0:08:01broadcaster in Jacqui Oatley.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Jacqui Oatley, says Sam.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Jacqui Oatley. Let's see how many of our 100 people said Jacqui Oatley.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34- Great football journalist, Jacqui Oatley.- Thank you.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36We're halfway through the round. Let's look at those scores.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Two, the best score of that pass, Sam, very well done.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Then we travel up to 21, Misha and Anna.
0:08:40 > 0:08:4222, Wilfred and Shelima.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Then up to 59, Megs and Brenda.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Brenda, we're a little bit ahead.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49We're going to need a nice low-scoring Jackie from you
0:08:49 > 0:08:51in the next pass, so good luck with that.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53We'll come back down the line now,
0:08:53 > 0:08:55can the second players please step up to the podium.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10- I'm a coach. - You're a coach in your dad's gym?
0:09:10 > 0:09:13- I am, yes.- And sometimes, even when you get back from tax,
0:09:13 > 0:09:16- you're back into the gym. - Straight in there, yes.
0:09:16 > 0:09:20Oh... Do you get use the gym yourself quite a lot?
0:09:20 > 0:09:22- Er, when I'm not coaching.- When...

0:10:04 > 0:10:0628, takes your total up to 30.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10I suspect that might be the lowest score of the round in total.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Yes, safely through. Very well played.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15There he is, one of the greatest golfers of all time, Jack Nicklaus.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01I try not to. I prefer a gentler approach.
0:12:01 > 0:12:02- OK.- No-one will believe that now.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04It's good, though.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07I say this because the physio that I go and see,
0:12:07 > 0:12:11a little bit of acupuncture, and that's...
0:12:11 > 0:12:15He'll then say, "All right, there's a couple of pops I'm going to do."
0:12:15 > 0:12:17And he'll go... ALEXANDER CROAKS
0:12:17 > 0:12:20And actually, you dread it. But you feel great afterwards.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23- Do you do that too?- Exactly. - It's quite fun.- Yeah.- There we are.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25LAUGHTER Ah...
0:12:25 > 0:12:26Anna, you're on 21,
0:12:26 > 0:12:3259 is still our high score on the near podium. 37 is your target.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34OK.
0:12:34 > 0:12:35I think I'll go with Jackie Chan.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Jackie Chan, says Anna. Here is your red line,
0:12:37 > 0:12:40if you can get below that, you're through to Round Two.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42How many of our 100 people said Jackie Chan?
0:12:51 > 0:12:5246 for Jackie Chan,
0:12:52 > 0:12:56taking your total up to 67. APPLAUSE
0:12:57 > 0:13:00He had a small part in a film with Bruce Lee early in his career
0:13:00 > 0:13:02and Bruce Lee hit him with a fighting stick,
0:13:02 > 0:13:03and when the director called cut,
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Bruce Lee came over to check that he was all right,
0:13:06 > 0:13:08cos he'd actually hit him. Jackie Chan said, "I was absolutely fine,
0:13:08 > 0:13:10"but I pretended I was quite badly injured,
0:13:10 > 0:13:13"because the longer I pretended I was injured, the more Bruce Lee spoke to me."
0:13:13 > 0:13:15- Ah.- Ah.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17That's pathetic.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19No, it's not. No, that's wonderful. LAUGHTER
0:13:19 > 0:13:21- Sweet, isn't it?- Really sweet. Thank you very much.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24- Brenda, it's lovely to have you here from Newcastle.- Thank you.
0:13:24 > 0:13:25What do you do, Brenda?
0:13:25 > 0:13:29At the moment, I'm a carer to my son, who is autistic.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31- Right you are.- Yes.- Do you...?
0:13:31 > 0:13:34You're also, I gather you're also a Morris dancer.
0:13:34 > 0:13:35I'm a retired Morris dancer.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38- And how often did you meet up and dance?- Well...
0:13:38 > 0:13:41It used to be weekly practices, whenever we could get a team out.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43- So, it's quite a complex thing, the Morris dance.- Yes.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45I mean, it's like bell-ringing, is it?
0:13:45 > 0:13:48Does it have sort of mathematical... patterns to it?
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Yes, it does. I've also done rapper dancing,
0:13:50 > 0:13:52rapper sword dancing, which is the miners' dance.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- I didn't even know about rapper sword dancing.- No!
0:13:55 > 0:13:58I know! We lead very sheltered lives.
0:13:58 > 0:13:59You do down south.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02I know. Oh, dear. Now, listen, you have got a target here.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05- Yes.- It is seven. Could be doable.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Are you liking our board of Jackies and Jacks?
0:14:08 > 0:14:11I'm liking your board of Jackies, but it's which Jackie to pick.
0:14:11 > 0:14:12Mm.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Erm...
0:14:14 > 0:14:16- Jack Lord.- Jack Lord, says Brenda.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19Jack Lord. Here is your red line, you have to get below that.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21But Jack Lord sounds good to me.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Let's see how many of our 100 people said Jack Lord.
0:14:26 > 0:14:27It's right.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32Still going down.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Oh, 17. APPLAUSE
0:14:35 > 0:14:3817 for Jack Lord, taking your total up to 76.
0:14:38 > 0:14:39It's not a bad total by any means,
0:14:39 > 0:14:42it just happens to be the highest.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Yeah, I have to say that was a valiant effort with Jack Lord.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Terrific answering by everybody, so just too many, I'm afraid.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50There he is, on the second row, from Hawaii 5-0.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Let's go through these, shall we?
0:14:52 > 0:14:54So top left is...
0:14:54 > 0:14:58- Do you...?- Jack Straw.- Jack Straw, would've scored you 63.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01Next to Jackie Chan, it's the former heptathlete and long jumper,
0:15:01 > 0:15:05Jackie Joyner-Kersee. Would've scored you two points.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07On the second row, you've got on the left...
0:15:07 > 0:15:10- Jack Whitehall. - Jack Whitehall, would've scored 38.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Then?
0:15:11 > 0:15:14- Jackie Stewart.- Jackie Stewart, would've scored you 49.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Now, I didn't recognise the next gentleman. Do you?
0:15:17 > 0:15:18No.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20It's the actor Jack Davenport.
0:15:20 > 0:15:21Two points for Jack Davenport.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25On the third row next to Jack White there is...
0:15:25 > 0:15:26Jackie Onassis.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Yep, Jackie Kennedy, Jackie Onassis, however you want to call her.
0:15:29 > 0:15:3247 points. Next to her?
0:15:32 > 0:15:33Jackie Wilson.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Jackie Wilson, which would've scored you six points.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39And on the bottom row, on the left there?
0:15:39 > 0:15:41- Jack Nicholson. - Jack Nicholson for 55.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43There we are. Excellent.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47Thank you, everyone. We are at the end of our first round
0:15:47 > 0:15:49and I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to a pair.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52I'm afraid the pair we have to say goodbye to is Brenda and Megs,
0:15:52 > 0:15:55I'm so sorry. You're really not that far ahead,
0:15:55 > 0:15:58and lovely low scoring there with Jackie Lord at the end,
0:15:58 > 0:16:00but I'm afraid you still end up on top there.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01We'll see you again next time,
0:16:01 > 0:16:02look forward to that very much indeed.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05But in the meantime, thank you very much, Brenda and Megs.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08APPLAUSE
0:16:08 > 0:16:10But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19Well done, everyone, all three pairs have made it through Round One.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Fantastic achievement there.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22But, Sam and Antonio, what about that?
0:16:22 > 0:16:25Our lowest joint score.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27And our lowest individual score, Sam, Jacqui Oatley,
0:16:27 > 0:16:29fantastic answer there. Well done, keep that up
0:16:29 > 0:16:32and I'm sure you'll make it through to the head-to-head and beyond.
0:16:32 > 0:16:33Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36Our category for Round Two today is...
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:16:41 > 0:16:42who's going to go second?
0:16:42 > 0:16:45And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51OK, and the question concerns...
0:16:55 > 0:16:58- Richard.- On each board we're going to describe six places
0:16:58 > 0:17:01and give the origins of the names of those places as well.
0:17:01 > 0:17:02You just need to name the place.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Six on the first board, six on the second,
0:17:04 > 0:17:0612 in all to have a go at at home. Good luck.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08OK, so can you name these places?
0:17:08 > 0:17:09And here's our first board of six.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Let me read those one last time.
0:17:58 > 0:18:02There we are. Now then, Misha.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04- Yeah.- Misha.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08Unfortunately, this is not a strong subject for me.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10I don't think it's probably strong for anyone, this one.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12I think it's one you're going to have to use
0:18:12 > 0:18:15- a little bit of lateral thinking, I think.- Uh-huh.
0:18:15 > 0:18:20I'm going to go for from the Arabic for desert,
0:18:20 > 0:18:22and just punt for the Sahara.
0:18:22 > 0:18:23Sahara, surely, says Misha.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Let's see if the Sahara is right.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28Let's see how many of our 100 people said Sahara.
0:18:30 > 0:18:31It's right.
0:18:32 > 0:18:3470 for Sahara, not bad.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37APPLAUSE Not bad at all.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Yep, absolutely.
0:18:39 > 0:18:40Essentially the Desert Desert.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43We shouldn't be calling it the Sahara desert, should we?
0:18:43 > 0:18:44We can, because, you know...
0:18:44 > 0:18:46- Because what do we know? - ..we're not an Arabic language.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48So we're allowed to call it the Sahara desert.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51But obviously in Arabic they wouldn't call it Sahara sahara.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Thank you, Richard. Now, Shelima.
0:18:55 > 0:19:01Shelima, which of these clues, cryptic though they are,
0:19:01 > 0:19:02have you worked out?
0:19:03 > 0:19:05I think I might go for the top one.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08I'm going to go for the smoky bay as Reykjavik.
0:19:08 > 0:19:09Reykjavik, says Shelima.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Let's see how many of our 100 people said Reykjavik.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16It's right.
0:19:18 > 0:19:2058, very good.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22APPLAUSE
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Well played, Shelima.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29We're all much more experts in Iceland since the Euros in 2016.
0:19:29 > 0:19:30I forget how they did, but...
0:19:32 > 0:19:33..someone will remind me.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36Someone Scottish will remind me at some point!
0:19:36 > 0:19:38Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Now, Sam, you're the last person to have this board.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42If you felt like wandering through it
0:19:42 > 0:19:44and having a guess at some of them...
0:19:44 > 0:19:48Second one down, I'm not sure, maybe Brussels,
0:19:48 > 0:19:51just because I know it's in Belgium.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55Second bottom, it's one I should probably know,
0:19:55 > 0:19:56but it's not coming to me.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58The bottom one possibly Beijing.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01But I'm going to try and use my French from school
0:20:01 > 0:20:03and go for Vermont for the third one.
0:20:03 > 0:20:04Vermont, says Sam.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07Sounds good to me. Let's see how many of our 100 people said Vermont.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13It is Vermont. Well, 70's our high score,
0:20:13 > 0:20:14you pass it. 58 our low score,
0:20:14 > 0:20:15you pass it.
0:20:15 > 0:20:1731 for Vermont, very well done, Sam.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19APPLAUSE
0:20:21 > 0:20:23That's good work again, Sam, well played, Vermont.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27The Belgian one is the toughest one up there, actually.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29It's the best answer on the board, one point if you said...
0:20:29 > 0:20:31- Do you know it? - I'd take a punt at Ghent, but...
0:20:31 > 0:20:34- It is Ghent.- Ah, that's nice!
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Very well done if you said that at home.
0:20:36 > 0:20:37From the Cornish for holy headland?
0:20:37 > 0:20:40- Penzance. - Penzance, that's exactly right.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42That would have scored you 13 points.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45Now, the Chinese for southern capital is Nanjing,
0:20:45 > 0:20:46the Chinese the northern capital...
0:20:46 > 0:20:48- Beijing. - Beijing, you're absolutely right.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50And that would have scored you 47.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:20:52 > 0:20:53So, let's take a look at our scores.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56We're halfway through the round. 31, the best score of the pass,
0:20:56 > 0:20:58well done, Sam. 58's where we find Shelima and Wilfred.
0:20:58 > 0:21:0070, Misha and Anna.
0:21:00 > 0:21:01So, Anna, we need a low score from you.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04Good luck with that. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:10 > 0:21:13OK, let's put six more clues up on the board, and here they are.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Let's read those all again.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05There we are. Antonio, remember, we're looking for the place names
0:22:05 > 0:22:06described by these clues.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10There you are on 31. If you can score 38 or less...
0:22:10 > 0:22:12- 38?- ..you are into the head-to-head.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17I think we shall go with...
0:22:19 > 0:22:21We'll go with the bottom one, Buenos Aires.
0:22:21 > 0:22:22Buenos Aires, says Antonio.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25Here's your red line. If you can get below that with Buenos Aires,
0:22:25 > 0:22:28the head-to-head awaits. Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:22:30 > 0:22:31It's right.
0:22:35 > 0:22:3750, taking your total up to 81.
0:22:37 > 0:22:38APPLAUSE
0:22:38 > 0:22:41I think you've probably done enough there.
0:22:41 > 0:22:42Beautiful Buenos Aires.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Pope Francis worked as a bouncer in Buenos Aires in his student days.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47- That's just hilarious, isn't it? - Yeah.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49- True, though.- Nice Pope Francis.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51Now then, Wilfred.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54- Yes.- Wilfred. There you are on 58.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56You want to score 22 or less.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01I think I'll play it fairly safe and go for the state capital
0:23:01 > 0:23:03of California, and say Sacramento.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05OK, playing it fairly safe.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Is that too safe, I wonder?
0:23:07 > 0:23:08Your target is 22.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10That's what it looks like in red-line format.
0:23:10 > 0:23:11You're going to say Sacramento,
0:23:11 > 0:23:14let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:23:21 > 0:23:2436 is what that scores you,
0:23:24 > 0:23:27and it takes your total up to 94.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30I think that's how we British people think that Spanish always works,
0:23:30 > 0:23:33which is you take the English word and put "o" on the end of it
0:23:33 > 0:23:35and you've got it. And in that case it does, perfectly.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38There we are. Very good. Thank you, Richard.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40- Now then, Anna.- Yes.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42You have to score 23 or less.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44I obviously know Dublin.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48And I don't know the top two.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52I'm going to take a punt at the second one from the bottom.
0:23:52 > 0:23:55I think it's... Could be Stuttgart, is it?
0:23:55 > 0:23:59OK, you're going to say Stuttgart for the second from the bottom.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02There is your red line - if you can get below that with Stuttgart,
0:24:02 > 0:24:03you are through to the next round.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06Let's see how many of our 100 people said Stuttgart.
0:24:08 > 0:24:09It's right!
0:24:11 > 0:24:12It's absolutely right,
0:24:12 > 0:24:14and it gets you through.
0:24:14 > 0:24:15Very well done indeed.
0:24:15 > 0:24:198 for Stuttgart, which happens to be the best score of the round
0:24:19 > 0:24:21by quite a long way.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24- 78 is your total, very well done. - That's really well worked out, Anna.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Well played, and well done for taking the risk as well.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Yes, Stuttgart is twinned with Cardiff and St Helens.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Now, you're right about Dublin as well,
0:24:32 > 0:24:35you were right to avoid it because it's a big scorer.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38It's the biggest scorer of all, 69 points for Dublin.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40For the Sanskrit for lion's city...
0:24:40 > 0:24:42There's not many city states in the world.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44- Singapore?- Singapore, yeah.
0:24:44 > 0:24:45That would have scored you 13.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49And the best answer, the Algonquin one, what would you guess?
0:24:49 > 0:24:52It's a long-named US state.
0:24:52 > 0:24:53- It's a Bee Gees song.- Massachusetts.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55- Massachusetts, yeah.- There we go.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57That would have scored you two points.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Thank you very much indeed. So, at the end of our second round,
0:24:59 > 0:25:02the pair who are heading home with the highest score of 94,
0:25:02 > 0:25:05Wilfred and Shelima, I'm afraid it's you.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07But I get a sense that there's plenty more in the tank
0:25:07 > 0:25:10for when we see you next time, and I'm sure you'll go much further.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11In the meantime, thank you very much indeed.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Wilfred and Shelima.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15APPLAUSE
0:25:15 > 0:25:18But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26Congratulations, Antonio, Sam, Anna and Misha.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28You are now one step closer to the final
0:25:28 > 0:25:29and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:25:29 > 0:25:32which currently stands at £1,000.
0:25:32 > 0:25:33We've made it to the head-to-head,
0:25:33 > 0:25:35which means you're now allowed to play as a team.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37You can confer before you give your answers.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43Very, very best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45APPLAUSE
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:25:55 > 0:25:57- Richard.- We're going to show you the names
0:25:57 > 0:26:00of five woodwind instruments now, but in anagram form.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Can you unscramble these, please?
0:26:02 > 0:26:03Thank you very much indeed.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07OK, let's reveal our five woodwind instruments, and here they come.
0:26:07 > 0:26:08We have got...
0:26:25 > 0:26:29Now, Antonio and Sam, you're our low scorers, so you will go first.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32THEY WHISPER
0:26:35 > 0:26:39We're going to go bottom one, and go with...
0:26:39 > 0:26:40clarinet.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43Clarinet, say Antonio and Sam, for clear tin.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46Clarinet. Now, Anna and Misha, the board's all yours,
0:26:46 > 0:26:48if you want to talk us through it.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51We thought that the second one from the bottom...
0:26:51 > 0:26:53- What did we say with that? - Saxophone.- Saxophone.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55And then we think the middle one...
0:26:56 > 0:26:58..is it like a piccolo, or something?
0:26:58 > 0:27:01- We'll go with that one. - Yeah, shall we go with that one?
0:27:01 > 0:27:03- Yeah.- Yeah, piccolo. - You're going to go for piccolo.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05So we have clarinet and we have piccolo.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Antonio and Sam said clarinet for clear tin,
0:27:07 > 0:27:08let's see if that's right.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Let's see how many of our 100 people said clarinet.
0:27:13 > 0:27:14It is right.
0:27:18 > 0:27:1942.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21APPLAUSE
0:27:22 > 0:27:26Anna and Misha, meanwhile, have gone for piccolo for cop coil.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Let's see if that's right,
0:27:28 > 0:27:30let's see how many of our 100 people said piccolo.
0:27:32 > 0:27:33It's right.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36Is it going to beat clarinet?
0:27:36 > 0:27:37Yes, it is.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39Piccolo, down it goes to 30.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41Very well done indeed, Anna and Misha.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44After one question, you are up 1-0.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46Well played. Also would have won with the top one, which is...
0:27:46 > 0:27:49- Do you know that one?- Bassoon. - Bassoon, yeah.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51That would have scored 38.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Saxophone you were absolutely right with,
0:27:53 > 0:27:55but it's the biggest scorer on the board.
0:27:55 > 0:27:56Would have scored you 51.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Now, do you know the second one?
0:27:59 > 0:28:02It's better known as a cor anglais.
0:28:02 > 0:28:03Oh, yes, English horn.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06It's English horn, yeah, and it's a pointless answer,
0:28:06 > 0:28:07so very well done if you got that.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11OK, here comes your second question.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Anna and Misha get to answer it first,
0:28:13 > 0:28:16but, Antonio and Sam, you have to win this one to stay in the game,
0:28:16 > 0:28:19so best of luck. Our second question is all about...
0:28:22 > 0:28:27- Richard.- We're about to show you five pictures of shark now, cool.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29We just need you to tell us what species they are, please.
0:28:29 > 0:28:32We're going to give you some letters to help you along.
0:28:32 > 0:28:36OK, let's reveal our five species of shark, and here they are.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03There we are, our five types of shark.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06Anna and Misha, you will go first. Feel free to confer.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11It's OK, I've actually swam with one of these.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14We'll go D, jobbe wong, if that's the correct pronunciation.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Jobbe wong.
0:29:17 > 0:29:18Yeah, I think...
0:29:18 > 0:29:20That's what I was told that it was!
0:29:20 > 0:29:23- OK. Jobbe wong.- It doesn't look long enough now, though.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25- No.- Jobbe wong.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27Yes, quite well disguised!
0:29:27 > 0:29:29I mean, the words as well as the shark.
0:29:29 > 0:29:31LAUGHTER
0:29:31 > 0:29:35Antonio and Sam, what would you like to go for?
0:29:35 > 0:29:37- The board is all yours. - We were going to gamble, but...
0:29:38 > 0:29:41- ..I think we'll just have to play it safe now.- ANNA:- Yeah!
0:29:41 > 0:29:44E's tiger, B's basking, C's great white.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47We think A might be caterpillar.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49But we're going to go with great white.
0:29:49 > 0:29:50You're going to go C, great white.
0:29:50 > 0:29:54So we have jobbe wong, and we have great white.
0:29:54 > 0:29:57Anna and Misha said jobbe wong for D.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:30:04 > 0:30:07No, I'm afraid not jobbe wong,
0:30:07 > 0:30:10or at least not in English.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13Antonio and Sam have gone for great white for C.
0:30:13 > 0:30:16All it has to be is right and you'll be back in the game.
0:30:16 > 0:30:17Let's see if it is right.
0:30:21 > 0:30:22- 90! SAM:- Sorry.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25APPLAUSE 90 for great white, but it's right.
0:30:25 > 0:30:28That's all it had to be, and it means you're back in the game.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30So after two questions it's 1-1.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32Yeah, sorry, Anna, I know you sound ridiculous saying jobbe wong,
0:30:32 > 0:30:34but you're not a million miles off.
0:30:34 > 0:30:37It's a wobbegong, not a gobbewong,
0:30:37 > 0:30:40and it's where it's from is the J bit.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44It's Japanese, Japanese wobbegong.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48And it would have been a pointless answer as well, so...
0:30:48 > 0:30:51- Very near. - Well done at home if you got that.
0:30:51 > 0:30:52Let's take a look at the rest of these.
0:30:54 > 0:30:58A is a cookiecutter shark.
0:30:58 > 0:30:59Cookiecutter... I don't like those eyes!
0:30:59 > 0:31:02That would have scored you one point. It's weird, isn't it?
0:31:03 > 0:31:04Very clear water, though.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07LAUGHTER
0:31:07 > 0:31:09B is a basking shark.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13That's a nice picture. 42 for that.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16And E, as you rightly said, is the tiger shark.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19And it's called the tiger shark - 59 points for that -
0:31:19 > 0:31:23called the tiger shark because it eats Frosties.
0:31:23 > 0:31:25LAUGHTER
0:31:25 > 0:31:27Thank you very much, Richard. Now, here comes your third question.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29Whoever wins this one goes through to the final
0:31:29 > 0:31:32and plays for that jackpot. Best of luck to both pairs.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35Our third question today is all about...
0:31:37 > 0:31:38- Richard.- I'm going to show you
0:31:38 > 0:31:40five film tag lines now from famous films.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42We've missed out a word from each tag line -
0:31:42 > 0:31:44can you tell us what that word is, please?
0:31:44 > 0:31:46- Good luck, both teams. - Thanks very much.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49Let's reveal our five tag lines and here they are...
0:32:14 > 0:32:15I'll do those again.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Now, then. Antonio and Sam, you will go first.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34Tough, isn't it?
0:32:34 > 0:32:35We know four.
0:32:35 > 0:32:36You reckon?
0:32:36 > 0:32:38I think we're going to have to.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40We're going to have to go for the top one, I think.
0:32:40 > 0:32:42Yeah, we think it's enemies.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44OK, enemies for the top one, say Antonio and Sam.
0:32:44 > 0:32:47Now then, Anna and Misha, what would you like to go for?
0:32:47 > 0:32:49- Do you want to talk us through the rest?- Yeah.
0:32:49 > 0:32:54Yeah, so we think The Matrix one is "remember, there is no spoon."
0:32:54 > 0:32:56We're not sure about the middle one.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59"An adventure 65 million years in the making."
0:32:59 > 0:33:01And the bottom one, galaxy.
0:33:03 > 0:33:08It's just what's going to be the lowest, and we think spoon.
0:33:08 > 0:33:11You're going to go for spoon. OK, so we have enemies and we have spoon.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13Antonio and Sam said enemies.
0:33:13 > 0:33:15Let's see how many of our 100 people said enemies.
0:33:21 > 0:33:2262 for enemies.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25APPLAUSE
0:33:25 > 0:33:27Meanwhile, Anna and Misha have gone for spoon.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29"Remember, there is no spoon."
0:33:29 > 0:33:31Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:33:34 > 0:33:35It's right.
0:33:36 > 0:33:38And it wins you the point.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41Still going down, Misha, that's a great answer.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44Anna and Misha, 7 for spoon. APPLAUSE
0:33:44 > 0:33:47And it means, after three questions, Anna and Misha, well done,
0:33:47 > 0:33:49you are going through to the final 2-1.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52Very well played. Yeah, a reference to the fact that the spoon
0:33:52 > 0:33:55only exists in The Matrix, so isn't actually real.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57Now, now, you gave us the bottom two,
0:33:57 > 0:34:00"An adventure 65 million years in the making."
0:34:00 > 0:34:02It only scored 58 points.
0:34:02 > 0:34:06I'm not entirely sure what the other 42 people thought that might be.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08- LAUGHTER - 65 and a half...?
0:34:08 > 0:34:10I don't know what you would think it would be.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13And "a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away."
0:34:13 > 0:34:15Also a very low scorer, comparatively.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17Would have scored 63.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20You would think that would be up in the 90s, wouldn't you?
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Now, this one is the best answer.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24"Does for rock and roll what The Sound Of Music did for..."
0:34:24 > 0:34:27I'm going to guess nuns.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30It's not, it's even more Spinal Tap.
0:34:30 > 0:34:31The hills.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33LAUGHTER
0:34:33 > 0:34:35- Excellent. - Would have scored you three points.
0:34:35 > 0:34:37- Very well done if you said that. - Thank you very much.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:34:40 > 0:34:43I'm afraid, is Antonio and Sam. A masterful display today.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Very, very well done. Lovely low scoring.
0:34:45 > 0:34:46It's been great having you on the show.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48Thank you so much for playing, Antonio and Sam.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50APPLAUSE
0:34:52 > 0:34:54But for Anna and Misha, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:58 > 0:35:02Congratulations, Anna and Misha, you have seen off all the competition
0:35:02 > 0:35:04and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:35:12 > 0:35:16And at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,000.
0:35:16 > 0:35:18Well, your first appearance on the show.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20Your only appearance, as it turns out, which is a shame.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23But your consolation is that lovely Pointless trophy.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26Oh, it's coveted. My, it's coveted.
0:35:26 > 0:35:29What a fine thing that is. What would you like to see come up
0:35:29 > 0:35:32on this board that might help you take that jackpot home as well?
0:35:32 > 0:35:35I'm thinking sports, like, recent sports.
0:35:35 > 0:35:38- A bit of football.- Bit of football. Bit of music.- Maybe some music.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40- Yeah.- Fingers crossed.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42- You know what it's like, this board. - Yeah.
0:35:42 > 0:35:43Sometimes it looks a bit worrying.
0:35:43 > 0:35:46But behind each question there's usually something,
0:35:46 > 0:35:48there's something a bit better. Anyway, let's have a look.
0:35:48 > 0:35:50Today's selection is this.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01Seriously?
0:36:01 > 0:36:04- I've changed my mind. - THEY LAUGH
0:36:04 > 0:36:08From those, I'm thinking probably Historical Fiction.
0:36:08 > 0:36:09Yeah, sure, why not?
0:36:11 > 0:36:12What do we reckon?
0:36:12 > 0:36:14- I think we'll go for Historical Fiction, then.- Yeah.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17- OK, Historical Fiction it is. Richard.- OK, very best of luck.
0:36:17 > 0:36:20We are looking for any of the historical novels
0:36:20 > 0:36:23of Philippa Gregory up to April 2016.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26We're looking for any of the historical novels of
0:36:26 > 0:36:28Bernard Cornwell, also up to April 2016.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31Or looking for any author who's ever been shortlisted for
0:36:31 > 0:36:33the Walter Scott prize for historical fiction
0:36:33 > 0:36:35from 2010 all the way through to 2016.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37- Very best of luck. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:36:37 > 0:36:39As always, you've got up to one minute to come up with
0:36:39 > 0:36:42three answers, and all you need to win that jackpot
0:36:42 > 0:36:44is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:44 > 0:36:45Are you ready?
0:36:45 > 0:36:49- Yes.- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51There they are. Your time starts now.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53OK, I don't think we should have picked historical fiction.
0:36:53 > 0:36:56No, probably a bad choice, thinking about it.
0:36:56 > 0:36:59I can't really think of any, so we may have to make a few up, maybe.
0:36:59 > 0:37:03- OK, yeah. - I want to say The Boleyn Girl.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05- Boleyn... - Or, like, The Other Boleyn Girl.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07- Who was the other Boleyn? - I don't know,
0:37:07 > 0:37:09I just feel like it might be something I've heard.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11- I didn't know there was two Boleyns.- No.- OK.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14- Yeah, I don't know either. - Have you heard of Philippa Gregory?
0:37:14 > 0:37:18I have, because I've definitely bought a couple of those books
0:37:18 > 0:37:20- for a friend of mine. - What were they called?
0:37:20 > 0:37:22Can you picture the cover?
0:37:22 > 0:37:24- It was green. - Green, any pictures on there?
0:37:24 > 0:37:26It had a girl.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29- Girl?- Yeah.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31I mean, more than that, I couldn't really say.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33OK, authors shortlisted for the Walter Scott Prize.
0:37:33 > 0:37:37- What is the Walter Scott Prize? - No idea.
0:37:37 > 0:37:392010 to 2016, can we guess at that?
0:37:39 > 0:37:42Let's just make something up something with...
0:37:42 > 0:37:44- Ten seconds left. - Something with Henry VIII.
0:37:44 > 0:37:45Henry VIII.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47And we'll go, like,
0:37:47 > 0:37:49The Other Boleyn Girl for the top one.
0:37:50 > 0:37:53OK, that, I'm afraid, is your time up.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55I'm so sorry, the minute just not long enough.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57What are your three answers? What would you like to go for?
0:37:57 > 0:38:00- We're going to go for... - The Other Boleyn Girl.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02- ..The Other Boleyn Girl. - The Other Boleyn Girl.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04- For the top category. - For Philippa Gregory.
0:38:04 > 0:38:08- What was...?- The Wives Of Henry VIII for the bottom one.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10- That's just authors, though, isn't it?- Oh, authors.
0:38:10 > 0:38:13No, the second one, then, that's fine. Yeah.
0:38:13 > 0:38:15OK, so we're saying The Wives Of Henry VIII.
0:38:15 > 0:38:19- Yes.- For Bernard Cornwell. - Bernard Cornwell, yeah.
0:38:19 > 0:38:23And authors shortlisted for the Walter Scott Prize...
0:38:26 > 0:38:30His surname is, like, Sebag Montefiore.
0:38:30 > 0:38:33I don't know what his first name is but my mum reads his book.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35- Edward?- Sebastian.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37Sebastian Sebag Montefiore. OK, there we are.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39LAUGHTER There are our three answers.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41Of those three, which do you think
0:38:41 > 0:38:43is your best shot at a Pointless answer?
0:38:45 > 0:38:47It's got to be Sebastian, isn't it?
0:38:47 > 0:38:49The one that we made up, yeah. The last one.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51- You want Sebag to go last? - Yeah.- The one we made up.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54Sebastian Sebag Montefiore. OK, we'll put him last.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57- Yeah.- OK, least likely to be Pointless?
0:38:57 > 0:38:59- Probably The Wives Of Henry VIII. - The middle one.
0:38:59 > 0:39:01The Wives Of Henry VIII for Bernard Cornwell.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03- And we'll put The Other Boleyn Girl in the middle.- Yeah.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06OK, let's put those answers up on the board in that order, then,
0:39:06 > 0:39:08and here they are. We have got...
0:39:14 > 0:39:17- Yeah.- Well, listen, three perfectly nice-looking answers on the board.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19We don't yet know what they will score you,
0:39:19 > 0:39:22but if one of those is pointless and wins you the jackpot of £1,000,
0:39:22 > 0:39:25what would you like to do with it? Anna, you first.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28I'd like to spend it on our wedding, I think.
0:39:28 > 0:39:31- Mainly on the dress. I'll go with that.- That's nice.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34- Yeah, that sounds good. - Nice pair of heels.- Yeah, very good.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37That would leave Misha, I don't know, with about 10p.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40With not much left.
0:39:40 > 0:39:41Very nice lollies.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44Misha, what would you like to spend your half of that on?
0:39:44 > 0:39:47Well, we were thinking about having our honeymoon
0:39:47 > 0:39:51in somewhere like Lapland, go and see the Northern Lights.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54Well, very, very best of luck. Three answers up on the board,
0:39:54 > 0:39:55let's hope one of them is pointless.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57Your first answer was The Wives Of Henry VIII.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00In this case, we were looking for Bernard Cornwell historical novels.
0:40:00 > 0:40:04So if this is right, and if it is pointless, it will win you £1,000.
0:40:04 > 0:40:08Let's see how many of our 100 people said The Wives Of Henry VIII.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15No, I'm afraid not a Bernard Cornwell novel.
0:40:15 > 0:40:16- No.- So not a pointless answer.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18Which means we move swiftly on to your next answer,
0:40:18 > 0:40:20The Other Boleyn Girl.
0:40:20 > 0:40:23In this case, we were looking for Philippa Gregory historical novels.
0:40:23 > 0:40:25So if this is Pointless, it will win you £1,000.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28Let's see how many of our 100 people said The Other Boleyn Girl.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34It's right.
0:40:34 > 0:40:35Your first answer, The Wives Of Henry VIII,
0:40:35 > 0:40:37I'm afraid, was not right,
0:40:37 > 0:40:39but The Other Boleyn Girl is absolutely right.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41Down we go through the 20s and into the teens.
0:40:41 > 0:40:43Down through the teens into single figures,
0:40:43 > 0:40:45down it goes to 7. That's not a bad answer at all.
0:40:45 > 0:40:46APPLAUSE
0:40:46 > 0:40:48Very well done indeed.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Irritatingly, we only accept pointless answers
0:40:52 > 0:40:54in this last round, so I'm afraid we had to move on
0:40:54 > 0:40:56to your third and final answer,
0:40:56 > 0:40:58which was Sebastian Sebag Montefiore.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00This is the one.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04You said this was your most confident shot at Pointless jackpot.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06We are looking for authors shortlisted for
0:41:06 > 0:41:09the Walter Scott Prize from 2010 to 2016.
0:41:09 > 0:41:12If it's Pointless, it will win you £1,000.
0:41:12 > 0:41:14Let's see how many people said Sebastian Sebag Montefiore.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21No, I'm afraid not.
0:41:21 > 0:41:24APPLAUSE
0:41:26 > 0:41:28I'm so sorry. Well, that was a game effort, I have to say.
0:41:28 > 0:41:31I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer
0:41:31 > 0:41:33so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £1,000.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35That will roll over onto the next show.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37But it's been a great pleasure to have you.
0:41:37 > 0:41:39Thank you so much for coming and playing so well,
0:41:39 > 0:41:41particularly in that head-to-head. Very strong indeed.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44And you get a Pointless trophy to take home for your troubles,
0:41:44 > 0:41:46so very well done. APPLAUSE
0:41:49 > 0:41:53Yeah, unlucky there. It's not Sebastian Sebag Montefiore -
0:41:53 > 0:41:54Simon Sebag Montefiore.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56A wonderful, wonderful writer.
0:41:56 > 0:41:59Let's take a look at the Pointless answers in the different categories.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02We'll start with Philippa Gregory.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04There's The Boleyn Inheritance, was a pointless answer.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07A Respectable Trade, they turned that into a TV series,
0:42:07 > 0:42:08like lots of her stuff.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13Changeling, Earthly Joys, Fools' Gold, Stormbringers,
0:42:13 > 0:42:14The Favoured Child, The Lady Of The Rivers,
0:42:14 > 0:42:16The Queen's Fool, The Virgin's Lover,
0:42:16 > 0:42:18The Wise Woman, Virgin Earth and Wideacre,
0:42:18 > 0:42:21all of those pointless answers for Philippa Gregory.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23Historical novels by Bernard Cornwell.
0:42:23 > 0:42:24Let's take a look at some of these.
0:42:27 > 0:42:28A couple of the Sharpe books there,
0:42:28 > 0:42:31Sharpe's Regiment and Sharpe's Revenge.
0:42:31 > 0:42:33The only ones that scored for him - The Empty Throne,
0:42:33 > 0:42:35The Last Kingdom, The Burning Land, Sharpe's Rifles,
0:42:35 > 0:42:37Warriors Of The Storm, Sharpe's Gold, Sword Song,
0:42:37 > 0:42:40Sharpe's Waterloo, Sharpe's Eagle, Sharpe's Tiger and The Fort -
0:42:40 > 0:42:43everything else a pointless answer for Bernard Cornwell.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46Loads and loads of authors shortlisted for
0:42:46 > 0:42:48the Walter Scott Prize for historical fiction...
0:42:50 > 0:42:52Kate Atkinson for Life After Life,
0:42:52 > 0:42:55Pat Barker for Toby's Room.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57In fact, everyone who's ever been nominated for that
0:42:57 > 0:43:00was a pointless answer, apart from Hilary Mantel.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03So if you gave us an answer that you know is one of those lists,
0:43:03 > 0:43:05you would have just won the money. Well done at home.
0:43:05 > 0:43:07Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:43:07 > 0:43:10Well, Anna and Misha, very sadly, they didn't win our jackpot today,
0:43:10 > 0:43:12which means it rolls over onto the next show
0:43:12 > 0:43:14when we will be playing for £2,000.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16APPLAUSE
0:43:17 > 0:43:19Join us then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:19 > 0:43:21Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.
0:43:21 > 0:43:23- Goodbye.- And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
