0:00:16 > 0:00:19CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong
0:00:24 > 0:00:25and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:25 > 0:00:28the show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Let's meet today's players.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36- Couple number one. - Hi, Xander, I'm Shelima,
0:00:36 > 0:00:37and this is my husband Wilfred,
0:00:37 > 0:00:40and we're from Buckhurst Hill in Essex.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43- Couple number two. - Hi, I'm Lucy, this is my dad Steve,
0:00:43 > 0:00:45and we're from Falkirk.
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Couple number three.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Hello, I'm Sidra, this is my sister Ghausia, and we're both from London.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51And finally, couple number four.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Hello, my name's Megs, this is my friend Brenda,
0:00:53 > 0:00:55and we're from Newcastle upon Tyne.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58And these are today's contestants.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Thanks very much, all of you. A very warm welcome to Pointless.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05It's great to have you here. We'll get to chat to each of you
0:01:05 > 0:01:06throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Here to ask the questions, despite the fact that the main question
0:01:11 > 0:01:14he asks himself is "what would Beyonce do?"
0:01:14 > 0:01:16it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20Hiya. Hey, everybody. Welcome along.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23- How are you, sir? - I'm very well, thank you.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Excellent. Now, we've got two returning players
0:01:25 > 0:01:27from the last show. Brenda and Megs are back.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Now, I was amazed, they got knocked out in Round One.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32- It seemed like they were with us for a long time.- I know.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34You made a big impression! But knocked out in Round One.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36So hopefully... Goodness knows the impression they'll make
0:01:36 > 0:01:39- if they stick around longer. - I know.- They'll dominate.
0:01:39 > 0:01:40- They might.- Yeah, they may...
0:01:40 > 0:01:43We might suddenly, kind of, be in the shadows slightly.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45- We might be.- It's the truth. So very best of luck to you.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Wilfred and Shelima got through to Round Two.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Now, in that show we had lovely Misha and Anna.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52They got through to the final round.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54It was one of those weird jackpot rounds where we said,
0:01:54 > 0:01:55"What would you like to come up?"
0:01:55 > 0:01:58And they said, "Sport or music would be good."
0:01:58 > 0:01:59And we put the four categories up -
0:01:59 > 0:02:02there's a sport category and music category,
0:02:02 > 0:02:04and so they both look at all the categories, and go,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07"We will go for... historical fiction, please."
0:02:07 > 0:02:08LAUGHTER
0:02:08 > 0:02:12And, unsurprisingly, did not get a jackpot answer.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- But it was unusual, I thought. - It is.- It's an unusual choice.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17People are very shy of the areas that they feel they should know.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19I think that's right, they get nervous.
0:02:19 > 0:02:20They think, "If I fail on something I know,
0:02:20 > 0:02:23"it's worse than failing on something I don't know."
0:02:23 > 0:02:24- I can see that. - I think that's right.- I see that.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Thank you very much, Richard.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Now, Anna and Misha didn't win the jackpot last time,
0:02:28 > 0:02:31as you'll have gathered, so we are adding another £1,000 to that.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34So today's jackpot starts off, would you believe it, at £2,000.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:44 > 0:02:45So, remember this,
0:02:45 > 0:02:48the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:48 > 0:02:51will be eliminated. No conferring until we get to the third round.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Our first category today is...
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Olympic Games. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:03:01 > 0:03:02who's going to go second?
0:03:02 > 0:03:05And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:14 > 0:03:15Richard.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17On each board we're going to show you seven clues
0:03:17 > 0:03:19to people who've won more than one Olympic gold medal.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21You just have to name who they are, please.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23So there's 14 multiple Olympic medallists
0:03:23 > 0:03:24to guess at home. Good luck.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Thanks very much indeed. So who are these people?
0:03:26 > 0:03:31Here is our first board of clues, and it reads much like this...
0:04:05 > 0:04:08I'm going to read those all one last time.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39- Wilfred.- Yes.- Welcome back to Pointless.- Thank you very much.
0:04:39 > 0:04:43- Wilfred, remind us what you do. - I'm an account manager.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45You are an account manager, very good, indeed.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Do you know what I love about Wilfred and Shelima,
0:04:48 > 0:04:50is when you're painting at home,
0:04:50 > 0:04:53Wilfred can do all the bits above the cornice,
0:04:53 > 0:04:55and Shelima can do the bit by the skirting board!
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- We've actually just done that at my mum's house.- Have you really?- Yeah!
0:04:58 > 0:05:00That's just perfect, you've got all the bits covered there.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Fantastic. Now, Wilfred, what would you like to go for?
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Well, this is not my category, so I'm going to go
0:05:06 > 0:05:09for the very obvious one, which is the first athlete to win the gold
0:05:09 > 0:05:12in 100 metres and 200 metres, which is Usain Bolt.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13Usain Bolt, says Wilfred.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Let's see how many of our 100 people said Usain Bolt.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20It's right.
0:05:22 > 0:05:2452, not bad.
0:05:24 > 0:05:2552.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Yeah, when he recorded his world-record of 9.69,
0:05:30 > 0:05:34when that was the world record, he did it with his shoelace undone.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36- Wow.- Yeah. - It goes to show, doesn't it?
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Fantastic. Thank you very much, Richard.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- Now, Steve, a warm welcome - from Falkirk.- Yes.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44- What do you do, Steve?- I'm retired now. I used to be a dentist,
0:05:44 > 0:05:46but I've forgotten all about that now.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Have you really? How quickly?
0:05:47 > 0:05:50How many weeks before you couldn't remember which tooth was which?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Oh, about three or four maybe, at the most!
0:05:53 > 0:05:56I bet you were a wonderful dentist, Steve.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59- How many years did you do it for? - I don't know, 30-odd.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02Not quite 40, but 37, something like that.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06- Wow. Many mouths you've had the pleasure to know.- Thousands.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09Steve, what would you like to go for on our board here?
0:06:09 > 0:06:14I think I'll go for the Finnish male athlete who won five gold medals
0:06:14 > 0:06:16at the 1924 games as Paavo Nurmi.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Paavo Nurmi says Steve. Let's see if that's right.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Let's see how many of our 100 people said Paavo Nurmi.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25It's right.
0:06:30 > 0:06:35That is a wonderful answer, Steve! Very well done, indeed.
0:06:35 > 0:06:36Three for Paavo Nurmi.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41That's great work, Steve. Very, very well played.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Yeah, Paavo Nurmi used to be on the Finnish banknotes,
0:06:43 > 0:06:47he was such a huge star over there, before they introduced the euro.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Thank you, Richard.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Sidra, welcome to Pointless.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Great to have you here. What do you do, Sidra?
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- So I've just qualified as a doctor. - Congratulations.- Thank you.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58APPLAUSE There we are, quite right!
0:07:00 > 0:07:04- So when will you be starting? - In a couple of weeks' time.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- Wow. That's exciting. Whereabouts?- In Essex.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09In Essex. Was that where you would've liked to have gone?
0:07:09 > 0:07:10Yes, it's quite close to home.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- You have a choice, do you?- Yeah. Well, we get randomly allocated,
0:07:13 > 0:07:16it kind of depends on a few arbitrary tests.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19- I mean, so it could have been... You're from London?- Yeah.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21I mean, might it have been Aberdeen or Inverness, or something?
0:07:21 > 0:07:24- Quite easily.- Really? Excellent. Good for you, Sidra.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Now, what would you like to go for on our board here?
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I think I'll go for the British female cyclist,
0:07:29 > 0:07:31and go for Victoria Pendleton.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Victoria Pendleton says Sidra.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36Let's see how many of our 100 people said Victoria Pendleton.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42It's right. 52 is our highest score, and you pass it.
0:07:42 > 0:07:43Look at that, down we go to 33.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45APPLAUSE
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Not bad at all. 33 for Victoria Pendleton.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51Well played, Sidra. Yeah, two golds and one silver
0:07:51 > 0:07:54for Victoria Pendleton, and has since gone on to ride horses.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57- Hasn't she?- Yes, ridden in genuine professional races,
0:07:57 > 0:07:59- which is terrifying. - Terrifying.- Yeah.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01OK, Brenda, welcome back.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- Hello.- From the Hexhamshire Lasses, as we discovered.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08This is a chapter of the Morris dancing.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11- Shall we let it pass?- Is that right?
0:08:11 > 0:08:12I was with Tyne Bridge Morris.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Oh, I'm so sorry, Tyne Bridge Morris. That's right.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19- He's a lovely guy, Tyne Bridge Morris! Yeah.- Nice fella.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22- How long were you with him for? - Oh, a while!
0:08:22 > 0:08:25XANDER LAUGHS
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Now, tell me, your uniform at Tyne Bridge, bells?
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Clogs, clogs with bells on.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33And how many of you are in the Tyne Bridge Morris?
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Well, you do it in teams of six or eight.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38- Right, I see.- Or multiples thereof.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42Anyway, there we are. Brenda, you're the last person to have this board.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Would you like to talk us through it?
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Right, the top one, I believe,
0:08:46 > 0:08:49is a lovely, lovely man called Daley Thompson.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52The second one I should know who it is,
0:08:52 > 0:08:54because I watch the Tour de France, but I can't remember it.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58I thought it was Mark Spitz, but that begins with an S, the swimmer.
0:08:58 > 0:09:03And the Romanian gymnast was Nadia Comaneci.
0:09:03 > 0:09:07Now it's a toss-up between Daley and Nadia.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- Nadia Comaneci. - Nadia Comaneci says Brenda.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17It's absolutely right.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Well, 52 is our highest score, and you pass that unsurprisingly.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- 33 you pass. 28 for Nadia Comaneci. - Not bad.- Not bad at all, Brenda.
0:09:26 > 0:09:2828.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30You picked the right one out of her and Daley,
0:09:30 > 0:09:34because Daley Thompson was actually the biggest scorer on the board.
0:09:34 > 0:09:3653 points for Daley Thompson.
0:09:36 > 0:09:41It's Sir Chris Hoy is the cyclist, so not a Tour de France cyclist.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44He would have scored you 44. And the US male swimmer?
0:09:44 > 0:09:47- Michael Phelps.- Michael Phelps, yeah. He would have scored you 25.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50So Paavo Nurmi, Steve, the best answer on the board.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52- Very well played. - We're halfway through the round,
0:09:52 > 0:09:55let's take a look at the scores. 3 was the best score of that pass.
0:09:55 > 0:09:56Steve, very well done indeed.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59Steve and Lucy, I think you shall go through to Round Two.
0:09:59 > 0:10:0128 is where we find Brenda and Megs.
0:10:01 > 0:10:0333 is where we find Sidra and Ghausia.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Wilfred and Shelima, 52, quite a high score there.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Shelima, a little bit of pressure on you there
0:10:08 > 0:10:10to find a nice low-scoring answer,
0:10:10 > 0:10:12but good luck with that. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:16 > 0:10:20OK, let's put seven more clues to multiple gold medal winners
0:10:20 > 0:10:23at the Olympics up on the board - and here they are.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26We have...
0:10:55 > 0:10:57I shall read those all one more time.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31So, Megs, welcome back.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33- Thank you.- So, Megs, we've talked about the Morris.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36- Yes.- The Morris, if I may abbreviate.- Yes, we have, yes.
0:11:36 > 0:11:37- What else must we know?- Well...
0:11:37 > 0:11:40Some important facts about Megs' life.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44You need to know that I'm in a ukulele ensemble,
0:11:44 > 0:11:47and our title is Misspent Uke.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51Oh! How long have you been part of that?
0:11:51 > 0:11:55- Eight years.- Did you just take up the uke then, or...?
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- Yes, yes.- Brilliant. - It's only got four strings.
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Well, exactly, it's nice and easy to play.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01- They're fun though, aren't they? - Yes.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Can you dance and play the uke at the same time?
0:12:03 > 0:12:06- You could play for the Morris. - You could.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10I'll just try it. Yeah, you probably could.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13- Yes, you probably could! - That would be amazing!
0:12:13 > 0:12:16APPLAUSE
0:12:19 > 0:12:20Can I just check what day this is happening?
0:12:20 > 0:12:23I don't think I'm free, but...
0:12:24 > 0:12:27Thank you very much. Now, Megs, what would you like to go for?
0:12:27 > 0:12:29There you are on 28. If you can score 23 or less,
0:12:29 > 0:12:32even at this stage, you'll be through to the round.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35It's all very well being a Morris dancer and a ukulele player,
0:12:35 > 0:12:37but you've got to know stuff!
0:12:37 > 0:12:39I don't know stuff!
0:12:39 > 0:12:44I'm going to go for the bottom one, which I'm hoping is Bradley Wiggins.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Bradley Wiggins. Let's see if it's right.
0:12:47 > 0:12:48There is your red line.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Let's see how far down the column we get with Sir Bradley Wiggins.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00- Oh, that's a good answer, 39. - Not bad.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02I think that's good enough, Megs.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04That will take your total up to 67.
0:13:04 > 0:13:05Well played, Megs.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08He nearly turned down his knighthood, Bradley Wiggins.
0:13:08 > 0:13:09Do you know who persuaded him to take it?
0:13:09 > 0:13:13- Paul Weller.- Oh, that's right, yes. - Funny.- I like that, yeah.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Thank you very much, Richard.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Now, Ghausia, welcome to Pointless.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Lovely to have you here. What do you do, Ghausia?
0:13:20 > 0:13:21I study natural sciences.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25- At university?- Yes, at UCL. - At UCL.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27So what stage are you at in your course?
0:13:27 > 0:13:30So, I'm about to start my masters next year.
0:13:30 > 0:13:31Oh, I see, so you've just graduated.
0:13:31 > 0:13:36Wow. The academic qualifications on that podium are pretty impressive!
0:13:36 > 0:13:38- So you're about to start your masters.- Yeah.
0:13:38 > 0:13:39Where will you be doing that?
0:13:39 > 0:13:42I'll be carrying on at UCL, so I'm doing a masters in chemistry.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44I see. What aspect of chemistry?
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- Organic chemistry. - Organic chemistry. Excellent.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Well, good luck with the masters. That sounds interesting.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Now, 33 is where you find yourselves.
0:13:51 > 0:13:56Your target is 33 also, should you not want to become high-scorers.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58The previous board was better for me.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02I only know one on here, and that's the US tennis player,
0:14:02 > 0:14:05and I'm going to go for Venus Williams.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Venus Williams says Ghausia. OK, here is your red line.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11Let's see how close to that red line you get with Venus Williams.
0:14:14 > 0:14:15It's right.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Not bad, 47 for Venus Williams.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23It takes your total up to a lovely round 80.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Well played, Ghausia. Another good answer.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28- They're surprisingly low, some of the scores...- I know.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30..for some well-known people.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32There we are, thank you very much indeed.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Lucy, a warm welcome to Pointless.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37- Here from Falkirk. - Yep.- And what do you do, Lucy?
0:14:37 > 0:14:40I'm a web communications officer at the University of Strathclyde
0:14:40 > 0:14:43- in Glasgow. - And what do you do for fun, Lucy?
0:14:43 > 0:14:44I absolutely love musical theatre,
0:14:44 > 0:14:49and I'm a member of a local amateur society and we do a musical
0:14:49 > 0:14:50and a pantomime each year.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Fantastic. What have been your favourites so far?
0:14:52 > 0:14:55We just did Sunshine On Leith, which was absolutely...
0:14:55 > 0:14:57- I love Sunshine On Leith!- Yeah.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59For you to do something in your own accent, and...
0:14:59 > 0:15:01- Yeah.- ..sing The Proclaimers songs.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04- The Proclaimers!- The audience were having a great time, as well.
0:15:04 > 0:15:05- Fabulous. - Yeah, it was really special.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07Love that. OK, there you are on 3.
0:15:07 > 0:15:0980 is our highest score.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12if you can possibly find yourself scoring 76 or less,
0:15:12 > 0:15:14you are straight through to the next round -
0:15:14 > 0:15:16I don't think that should challenge you too much.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19I think I'm going to go for the US athlete
0:15:19 > 0:15:22who won heptathlon in the long jump in 1988
0:15:22 > 0:15:24and say Jackie Joyner-Kersee?
0:15:24 > 0:15:27- Jackie Joyner-Kersee. - Yeah.- OK, let's see if that's right.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Here is your red line. Get below that with Jackie Joyner-Kersee,
0:15:30 > 0:15:31and you are through to the next round.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33How many of our 100 people said it?
0:15:35 > 0:15:39It's right. Through you go! Very well done, indeed.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41I think that's going to be a very good score.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Down it goes, Jackie Joyner-Kersee. Down to 5!
0:15:45 > 0:15:49Which means you're in a single-figure score total of 8.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Very impressive indeed on podium two.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54- That's really impressive from the two of you.- Yeah.- Very well played.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Good answer. Sunshine On Leith, by The Proclaimers,
0:15:56 > 0:15:59one of the few songs that always sends a shiver down my spine.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01- Aw.- Don't you think? It's such a beautiful song.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05Yeah. It is a lovely song, and maybe one for the uke band, I think,
0:16:05 > 0:16:07- I'd suggest.- Oh, a uke version of any Proclaimers hit
0:16:07 > 0:16:11- would be worth listening to. - Yeah. Lovely.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14Thank you. Now, Shelima, welcome back to Pointless.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16- Thank you. - Remind us what you do, Shelima.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19I'm an accountant, but I'm working in project management.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22That's right. And what do you like getting up to when you're not doing
0:16:22 > 0:16:24- that?- So we've got a 20-month-old son,
0:16:24 > 0:16:27- so he takes up a lot of our time. - Lovely. What's his name?
0:16:27 > 0:16:29Noah Xander!
0:16:29 > 0:16:33- Xander?- Yeah, as a middle name. - Ah, Noah Xander. Very good!
0:16:33 > 0:16:34Good work, Noah!
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Very good. 20 months, it is a great age, as well, isn't it?
0:16:37 > 0:16:39- Yeah, it's fantastic.- Very good.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41- Now, Shelima.- Yes.- You're on 52.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43We have a bit of a match on our hands here.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44There's no way we can be saying goodbye to you
0:16:44 > 0:16:47at the end of this round, that's simply not going to happen.
0:16:47 > 0:16:5127 is your target, so we need 27 or less from your answer.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53There's two up there that I know.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56I think the British rower is going to be Steven Redgrave,
0:16:56 > 0:16:57or Steve Redgrave...
0:16:57 > 0:17:01..and the Australian male swimmer would be Ian Thorpe.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04I think Will would probably know the speed skater,
0:17:04 > 0:17:06because it's quite big in Holland.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08I will go with Steve Redgrave.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Steve Redgrave says Shelima.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12OK, now, here comes your red line.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15It's... It could be higher.
0:17:15 > 0:17:16I'd like to see it higher.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18But anyway, let's see what happens.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Let's see how close to it we get with Steve Redgrave.
0:17:28 > 0:17:3053 for Steve Redgrave...
0:17:30 > 0:17:31APPLAUSE
0:17:31 > 0:17:34..taking your total up to 105.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36Yeah, a big score for Steve Redgrave.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39It sounded like the audience thought you should have gone for Ian Thorpe.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42So, you needed to score 27 points to be in the next round.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Ian Thorpe, it's a correct answer, would have scored 26 points.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48AUDIENCE GASP
0:17:48 > 0:17:52- Oh, no!- So sorry!
0:17:52 > 0:17:53Would have been exciting.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57As Shelima said, Wilfred, speed skating is huge in the Netherlands.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59- Do you know that one?- Bonnie Blair. - Bonnie Blair.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00And that's a pointless answer.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Imagine if you'd gone the other way around!
0:18:02 > 0:18:05- Aw!- There it is, that's the luck of the draw. Really, really unlucky.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Very well done if you said Bonnie Blair at home -
0:18:08 > 0:18:11- and the US male athlete is... - Carl Lewis.- Carl Lewis.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15- And he would have scored you 32. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:18:15 > 0:18:16So, at the end of our first round,
0:18:16 > 0:18:19the pair we have to say goodbye to is Shelima and Wilfred. I'm so...!
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Oh, and you...! Think of the glory you would have been in line for!
0:18:23 > 0:18:26I'm so sorry. Anyway, let's not think about that too much.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28It's been brilliant having you on the show.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30I'm sorry we're saying goodbye to you so soon,
0:18:30 > 0:18:32but thank you so much for coming to play. Wilfred and Shelima!
0:18:32 > 0:18:34APPLAUSE
0:18:36 > 0:18:39But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47We're down to three pairs, and I'm afraid this continues,
0:18:47 > 0:18:49we're going to be squeezing and squeezing.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52At the end of this round we'll be down to two pairs. I know, so cruel!
0:18:52 > 0:18:55- But, Lucy and Steve, very well done. - Thank you.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Very much top of the class in Round One.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00Let's see if you can keep that up. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:19:09 > 0:19:10who's going to go second?
0:19:10 > 0:19:13And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19OK, let's find out what the question is.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:19:21 > 0:19:25to name as many words in the Nato alphabet...
0:19:28 > 0:19:30..as they could. Richard?
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Yep, we're simply looking for any of the 26 words that are used
0:19:32 > 0:19:35to represent letters in the Nato phonetic alphabet
0:19:35 > 0:19:37that contain any of those letters in them,
0:19:37 > 0:19:39so it can just contain one of them.
0:19:39 > 0:19:43So, any of those 26 words that contain the letters N, A, T or O.
0:19:44 > 0:19:45Thank you very much indeed.
0:19:45 > 0:19:51- Now, Lucy... - Erm, I think I'll go for Hotel.
0:19:51 > 0:19:56Hotel. Hotel. Let's see how many of our 100 people said Hotel.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00It's right.
0:20:03 > 0:20:0534 for Hotel.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08APPLAUSE Seems fair enough.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12- Yeah, well played. And do you know what letter that represents?- I'm...
0:20:14 > 0:20:15- "O".- "H".
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- Yeah.- Oh, yes!
0:20:18 > 0:20:21I see what you mean! I'm so sorry. I am so sorry!
0:20:21 > 0:20:24- Yes.- I'll quiz you on all of them as we go through.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26I hope you do. I hope you do.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Sidra.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32I'm not 100% sure on this one, but I'm going to give it a go.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- Foxtrot?- Foxtrot, says Sidra.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Let's see how many of our 100 people said Foxtrot.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47APPLAUSE
0:20:47 > 0:20:5053.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53The Royal Navy in World War I had their own version of this alphabet,
0:20:53 > 0:20:55and F was Freddie
0:20:55 > 0:20:57and H was Harry in that.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59- Interesting.- Yeah.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Interesting. Thank you very much, Richard. There we are.
0:21:02 > 0:21:03Now, Brenda.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Echo.
0:21:08 > 0:21:09Echo.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16It's right.
0:21:19 > 0:21:2233!
0:21:22 > 0:21:24APPLAUSE There we are, 33.
0:21:24 > 0:21:30- Very well done indeed.- Yeah, the World War I equivalent was Edward.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Thank you very much, Richard. We are halfway through the round,
0:21:33 > 0:21:35so let's take a quick look at those scores.
0:21:35 > 0:21:3733, Brenda, very well done indeed, the best score of the pass.
0:21:37 > 0:21:4034 is where we find Lucy and Steve.
0:21:40 > 0:21:4253 is where we find Sidra and Ghausia.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44So, yes, we are going to need a low score from you, Ghausia.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Good luck with that. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:52 > 0:21:54- Megs.- Hello.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57So, remember, we're looking for words in the Nato phonetic alphabet
0:21:57 > 0:21:59that include the letters N, A, T or O.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02My husband's going to kill me if I get this one wrong,
0:22:02 > 0:22:05because we bought a mug last year with all of the letters.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09- So, I'm going to go for Bravo. - Bravo, says Megs.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Bravo. Here is your red line.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14If you can score 19 or less with Bravo,
0:22:14 > 0:22:16you are definitely through to the head-to-head.
0:22:16 > 0:22:17How many people said Bravo?
0:22:24 > 0:22:2840 for Bravo. Not bad! Takes your total up to 73.
0:22:28 > 0:22:29Not bad.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32And that equivalent was Butter.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34So, they weren't all boys' names.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36Thank you very much, Richard.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40Now, Ghausia, your target is 19 or less.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42XANDER EXHALES
0:22:44 > 0:22:49I'm not sure about this one, but I'm going to go for Juliet.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Juliet. Juliet, says Ghausia.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55Let's see how many of our 100 people said Juliet.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57There is your red line.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01It's right.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07It's a good answer. Look at that, down to 23!
0:23:07 > 0:23:10That's a really good answer - our lowest score of the round so far.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Takes your total up to 76. Is it enough, I wonder?
0:23:13 > 0:23:17All of the Nato alphabet is also designed to be able to be spoken
0:23:17 > 0:23:18by Spanish and French speakers as well.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21And with Juliet, it's one of the ones where in French,
0:23:21 > 0:23:22they'll spell it with a double T
0:23:22 > 0:23:25to remind French speakers to pronounce the T.
0:23:25 > 0:23:26So, not to call it "Juli-eh".
0:23:26 > 0:23:30- Clever.- Yeah, how about that? - Thank you.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Now, Steve, there you are on 34.
0:23:32 > 0:23:3876 is the high score at the moment. So 41 or less gets you through.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41I'll go for Uniform.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44That's good. Oh, that is good. Uniform, says Steve.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47There is your red line. If you get below that red line with Uniform,
0:23:47 > 0:23:49you are through to the head-to-head.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51How many of our 100 people said Uniform?
0:23:55 > 0:23:57That is right.
0:23:57 > 0:23:58Our lowest score so far is 23...
0:23:58 > 0:24:01Well, you're through to the head-to-head, you've passed 23.
0:24:01 > 0:24:02Uniform scores 11.
0:24:02 > 0:24:09Steve, that takes your total up to 45. Very impressive indeed.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Very well played, and the World War I equivalent was Uncle,
0:24:11 > 0:24:14- as in Uncle John. Uncle Johnny! - LAUGHTER
0:24:14 > 0:24:17Now, let's take a look... It's one of those interesting ones -
0:24:17 > 0:24:19obviously there's no pointless answers here
0:24:19 > 0:24:21because it's quite a closed group of words,
0:24:21 > 0:24:24so it's working out what's going to be the lowest scorer.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26There are two words from the Nato phonetic alphabet
0:24:26 > 0:24:29which scored 9 points, the two best answers you could have come up with.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32- If you had to go for one? - Victor would be a good one?
0:24:32 > 0:24:34- Victor is one of the best answers. - Is it? Good.
0:24:34 > 0:24:35- Victor, for 9 points.- Good.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Victor and X-ray are the two best answers
0:24:37 > 0:24:39- you could have come up with. - Good.- 9 points.
0:24:39 > 0:24:4210 points for Yankee. Then we've Uniform, which is a great answer.
0:24:42 > 0:24:4715 for Papa, 16 for Sierra, 18 for Kilo, 18 also for India.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Romeo would have scored you 22, Lima would have scored you 23.
0:24:50 > 0:24:5225 for Oscar.
0:24:52 > 0:24:58You would have got 27 for Golf, 29 for November, Charlie 43, Tango 43.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01And let's take a look at the top three scorers,
0:25:01 > 0:25:05the ones that most of our 100 people said when they were asked online.
0:25:05 > 0:25:0744 of our 100 said Delta.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12Then there's that Foxtrot, which is a punishingly high score, 53.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16Beating that, even, Alfa - on 59.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:25:18 > 0:25:19So, at the end of our second round,
0:25:19 > 0:25:22the pair who are heading home with our high score of 76,
0:25:22 > 0:25:24Ghausia and Sidra, I'm afraid it's you -
0:25:24 > 0:25:27but we'll see you again next time. I'm sure you'll get much further.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30But in the meantime, thanks very much for playing, Ghausia and Sidra.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:25:33 > 0:25:36But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for the head-to-head.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Congratulations, Lucy and Steve, Brenda and Megs.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46You are now one step closer to the final
0:25:46 > 0:25:49and the chance to play for our jackpot,
0:25:49 > 0:25:51which currently stands at £2,000.
0:25:51 > 0:25:52There we are.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:25:55 > 0:25:58So, now we're in the head-to-head, it means you're allowed to confer
0:25:58 > 0:26:00before you give your answers, and the first player to win
0:26:00 > 0:26:02two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14Here is your first question, and it concerns...
0:26:17 > 0:26:20- Richard?- We're going to show you five cartoon characters
0:26:20 > 0:26:21from films now.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23We want you to tell us the name of the singers
0:26:23 > 0:26:27- who voiced these characters, please. Good luck.- Thanks very much indeed.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30OK, let's reveal our five cartoon characters, and here they are.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32We have got...
0:27:03 > 0:27:05There you are.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09Five cartoon characters voiced by singers.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12Lucy and Steve, you've been our low scorers, so you will go first.
0:27:12 > 0:27:17- LUCY WHISPERS:- I know them all. Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake...
0:27:17 > 0:27:20Erm, we are going to go for B, which is Boo-Boo,
0:27:20 > 0:27:23and I think it's Justin Timberlake.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25Justin Timberlake, say Lucy and Steve.
0:27:25 > 0:27:29Justin Timberlake. Now, Brenda and Megs...
0:27:29 > 0:27:31..do you want to talk us through that board
0:27:31 > 0:27:33- and have a shot at some of them? - We don't know A.
0:27:33 > 0:27:38C we think's Miley Cyrus, D's Rihanna and E's Katy Perry.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42- We'll go for Katy Perry. - E, Katy Perry.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44So, we have Justin Timberlake and Katy Perry.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47Lucy and Steve said Justin Timberlake for B.
0:27:47 > 0:27:48Let's see if that is right.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00Look at that, 12 for Justin Timberlake!
0:28:00 > 0:28:03Very well done indeed, Lucy and Steve.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08Brenda and Megs, meanwhile, have gone for Katy Perry for E.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10Let's see if that's right.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12Let's see how many of our 100 people said Katy Perry.
0:28:15 > 0:28:16It's right.
0:28:19 > 0:28:23- Oh!- 42 for Katy Perry.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25There we are, well done, Lucy and Steve.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27After one question, you are up 1-0.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29Yes, and as we've come to expect from Lucy and Steve so far,
0:28:29 > 0:28:33that's the best answer on the board as well. Could not have been beaten.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36- A is...- Taylor Swift. - ..Taylor Swift.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38Would have scored you 28.
0:28:39 > 0:28:41C is Miley Cyrus.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45She would have scored 37. And D is...?
0:28:45 > 0:28:48- Rihanna.- Rihanna.
0:28:48 > 0:28:51- She would have scored 46. - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:28:51 > 0:28:52OK, here comes your second question.
0:28:52 > 0:28:55Brenda and Megs, you get to answer it first,
0:28:55 > 0:28:57but you have to win it to stay in the game. So, best of luck.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00Our second question this afternoon is all about...
0:29:02 > 0:29:04Northumberland!
0:29:04 > 0:29:07Oh, well, that's nice!
0:29:08 > 0:29:11- Richard? Nice for you, as well. - Nice for me, too, yeah!
0:29:11 > 0:29:14How about that? We're going to show you five clues now
0:29:14 > 0:29:15to facts about Northumberland.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Can you give us the most obscure answer, please?
0:29:17 > 0:29:20Thank you very much. OK, let's reveal our five clues,
0:29:20 > 0:29:22and here they come.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24We have got...
0:29:41 > 0:29:43I'll read all of those one last time.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03Brenda and Megs, it's over to you.
0:30:03 > 0:30:08THEY CONFER
0:30:10 > 0:30:12We're going to for the hills.
0:30:12 > 0:30:16- Cheviot.- The Cheviots. - The Cheviots.- The Cheviot Hills.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19There we are, the Cheviots. Now, Steve and Lucy,
0:30:19 > 0:30:21do you want to talk us through the board?
0:30:21 > 0:30:25The top one's Hadrian's Wall. I knew the Cheviots.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27Lindisfarne will be the island.
0:30:27 > 0:30:31Robson Green is the extreme fishing presenter.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34- Lindisfarne. - Lindisfarne, we'll go for.
0:30:34 > 0:30:37Lindisfarne. OK, so, Lindisfarne for Holy Island.
0:30:37 > 0:30:38We have Cheviots and Lindisfarne.
0:30:38 > 0:30:41Brenda and Megs said the Cheviots - let's see if that's right.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46It's right.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53- There we go, well done.- Not bad. - 14 for the Cheviots.
0:30:56 > 0:31:00Lucy and Steve, meanwhile, have gone for Lindisfarne.
0:31:00 > 0:31:04Let's see how many of our 100 people said that for Holy Island.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09It's right.
0:31:12 > 0:31:1429 for Lindisfarne.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17Very well done indeed, Brenda and Megs.
0:31:17 > 0:31:19As you should have done, you won that answer -
0:31:19 > 0:31:22and it means that after two answers it's 1-1.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25Yeah, always randomly allocated, these questions as well,
0:31:25 > 0:31:27but sometimes... sometimes it does come up.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29It's weird, isn't it, when it happens?
0:31:29 > 0:31:31But you've got to take advantage, and you did.
0:31:31 > 0:31:32- The "Chiviots", you're saying.- Mmm.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35"Chiviots", rather than the "Cheeviots" or the "Chevvy-ots".
0:31:35 > 0:31:38- Cheviots.- Cheviots.- It's not the best answer on the board, actually.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40We'll get to what that is in a moment. The Roman wall first -
0:31:40 > 0:31:41it is Hadrian's Wall.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44It is the biggest scorer, would have scored 57.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47And the TV presenter is, of course, Robson Green.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49He would have scored 45.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51But the best answer is the official county town.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54- I mean, interesting. We wouldn't really necessarily know it.- No.
0:31:54 > 0:31:55I'm guessing it's Alnwick, I'd have thought.
0:31:55 > 0:31:58- Alnwick, you think.- Morpeth? - Or Morpeth, yeah.- Or Hexham?
0:31:58 > 0:32:00OK, the answer is...
0:32:02 > 0:32:05- ..Morpeth.- Oh, well done, Brenda!
0:32:05 > 0:32:09APPLAUSE
0:32:09 > 0:32:12- That's where the Morpeth Lasses come from.- Exactly.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14Would have scored you 4 points, as well.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16Very well done if you said that at home.
0:32:16 > 0:32:19So, we are now... We're facing our third question.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21Whoever wins this one goes through to the final
0:32:21 > 0:32:24and plays for that jackpot. Very, very best of luck to both pairs.
0:32:24 > 0:32:27Our third question is all about...
0:32:30 > 0:32:33- Richard?- We're going to give you alternate letters now
0:32:33 > 0:32:35of things or terms that can be associated
0:32:35 > 0:32:38with US Presidential Elections. Can you work out what they are, please?
0:32:38 > 0:32:40- Good luck.- Thanks very much indeed.
0:32:40 > 0:32:44OK, let's reveal our various terms - and here they come...
0:33:14 > 0:33:15So, I'll read those again.
0:33:31 > 0:33:34There we are. Lucy and Steve will go first.
0:33:34 > 0:33:39- The top one's caucus... - Yeah, what's the second one?
0:33:39 > 0:33:42- Convention.- I'd go with caucus.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45We'll go for number one, caucus.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47Caucus, say Lucy and Steve.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49Now, Brenda and Megs.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52I knew that.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54The next two, I don't know.
0:33:54 > 0:33:59I know who Obama represented, but we're going to go for the day,
0:33:59 > 0:34:02which is Super Tuesday.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04Super Tuesday. So, we have caucus and we have Super Tuesday.
0:34:04 > 0:34:07Lucy and Steve said caucus. Let's see if that's right.
0:34:07 > 0:34:10Let's see how many of our 100 people said caucus.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Caucus! 22!
0:34:22 > 0:34:25That's not good enough, I don't think.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27Brenda and Megs have gone for Super Tuesday.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:34:33 > 0:34:35It's right.
0:34:39 > 0:34:41- Oh!- 27 for Super Tuesday.
0:34:41 > 0:34:44Which means, very well done, Lucy and Steve,
0:34:44 > 0:34:49narrowly, after three questions, you are through to the final 2-1.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51They did leave the door open slightly for you
0:34:51 > 0:34:52because there's an answer up there
0:34:52 > 0:34:54that would have seen you through to the jackpot round.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57Democratic Party would have scored too many points.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59That would have scored 58 points.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01The formal admission of the president-elect
0:35:01 > 0:35:04is the inauguration. That would have scored 46.
0:35:04 > 0:35:07But it's this next one's that's the best answer on the board.
0:35:07 > 0:35:10- Convention. - It's the convention, yep.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12That would have scored you 12 points.
0:35:12 > 0:35:13Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16So, the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,
0:35:16 > 0:35:19I'm sorry to say, Brenda and Megs. We have to say goodbye to you now.
0:35:19 > 0:35:21- It's been such a treat having you on the show.- Thank you.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24Thank you so much for coming and playing and adding so much to it.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26- Brenda and Megs.- Thank you.
0:35:26 > 0:35:29CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:35:29 > 0:35:32But, for Lucy and Steve, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:37 > 0:35:39Congratulations, Lucy and Steve.
0:35:39 > 0:35:40You've seen off all the competition
0:35:40 > 0:35:43and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52- That's what we came for.- Perfect.
0:35:52 > 0:35:55Better still, you now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £2,000.
0:35:58 > 0:36:02CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:36:02 > 0:36:03Well, this happens every so often,
0:36:03 > 0:36:06we have a little stealth raid down from Falkirk,
0:36:06 > 0:36:08straight through every round,
0:36:08 > 0:36:11and off you go, lifting your trophies above your head.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14- Anyway, well, you know what happens in this last round.- Yep.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16We'll put four categories up on the board
0:36:16 > 0:36:19and we hope there's something there that you'll feel comfortable with.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22Let's see what today's selection looks like. We have got...
0:36:32 > 0:36:35- Well, not Post-Punk... - No, not Post-Punk Albums.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38- And definitely not US Crime Writers. - No.- We said not film.- No.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40So, will we go The "Good", The "Bad" And The "Ugly"?
0:36:40 > 0:36:42The "Good", The "Bad" And The "Ugly".
0:36:42 > 0:36:43- We'll see what's there.- Who knows?
0:36:43 > 0:36:46OK. Who, indeed, knows? First time we had it on the board, in fact.
0:36:46 > 0:36:48Yes. Hopefully, one of these will suit you.
0:36:48 > 0:36:50We are looking for any of the following, please.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52We're looking for... UK top 40 single
0:36:52 > 0:36:56by the US band Good Charlotte up to May 2016.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58We are looking for the name of any character
0:36:58 > 0:37:01who's appeared in five or more episodes of Breaking Bad.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03So any character in five or more of those.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Or we're looking for any actor who appeared
0:37:05 > 0:37:09in the 2000 film Coyote Ugly, according to IMDb.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12So, UK top 40 singles by Good Charlotte,
0:37:12 > 0:37:14the name of any character from Breaking Bad,
0:37:14 > 0:37:17five episodes or more, or the cast of Coyote Ugly.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19- Very best of luck. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22Now, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:37:22 > 0:37:25and all you need to win that jackpot is for just one of your answers
0:37:25 > 0:37:27- to be pointless. Are you ready?- Yes.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:33 > 0:37:34OK. I only know Coyote Ugly.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36Yes, we'll go for that then.
0:37:36 > 0:37:38Adam Garcia.
0:37:38 > 0:37:40John Goodman.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43And, then, there's a girl in it that's in Blue Bloods
0:37:43 > 0:37:47and she's Tom Selleck's daughter, and she was in the Sex And The City.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50- And I can't remember her name! - I don't know any...
0:37:50 > 0:37:53- Tyra Banks was in it.- Right, well, that'll do.- Yeah.- That's the three.
0:37:53 > 0:37:54- Let me just think...- Right, OK.
0:37:54 > 0:37:56..if I can think of this girl's name.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59I'm hopeless at these categories.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01She was one...
0:38:02 > 0:38:04The main girl was called Violet
0:38:04 > 0:38:07and she's got a really French-sounding name.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12- Well, you've got three, anyway. - I know.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14Because I don't know anything about Good Charlotte
0:38:14 > 0:38:17- and we never watched Breaking Bad. - Never watched Breaking Bad.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20Everyone's going to be, like, "Why did you not watch Breaking Bad?!"
0:38:20 > 0:38:22Yes, that's right. Well, what are your three that you've got?
0:38:22 > 0:38:25- Ten seconds left.- Tyra Banks, Adam Garcia and John Goodman.
0:38:25 > 0:38:28- Right...- We'll have to go with them. - We've got the three.
0:38:28 > 0:38:31- OK, you've got your three as your minute runs out.- Yeah.
0:38:31 > 0:38:32Let's have those three answers.
0:38:32 > 0:38:35- OK.- John Goodman.- John Goodman.
0:38:35 > 0:38:39- Adam Garcia.- Adam Garcia. - And Tyra Banks.- Tyra Banks.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:42 > 0:38:45- I think Tyra Banks. - Tyra Banks goes last.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47Least likely to be pointless?
0:38:47 > 0:38:49- Adam Garcia. - Adam Garcia, we'll put him first.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51OK, well, let's pop those answers up on the board, then,
0:38:51 > 0:38:55and here they are. We have got Adam Garcia, we've got John Goodman,
0:38:55 > 0:38:56and we've got Tyra Banks.
0:38:56 > 0:38:59Well, you found three answers, which is good.
0:38:59 > 0:39:01Who knows? One of these might turn out to be pointless.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04If one of these wins that jackpot for you, £2,000,
0:39:04 > 0:39:06what would you like to do with it? Lucy, you first.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09I want to go to all 50 American states by the time I'm 50.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11I've been to 23 so far.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14So, I would use it for a bit of an American road trip.
0:39:14 > 0:39:16Very good indeed. Steve, how about you?
0:39:16 > 0:39:20Well, actually, Lucy has a big birthday coming up very shortly,
0:39:20 > 0:39:23and I think we'll have a nice family weekend away somewhere
0:39:23 > 0:39:25or other to celebrate her birthday.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28Very nice, indeed. OK, well, very, very best of luck.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Three good answers there. Let's see what happens.
0:39:30 > 0:39:32Adam Garcia. In this case, all three cases,
0:39:32 > 0:39:35we were looking for cast members of Coyote Ugly.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37Adam Garcia was your first answer.
0:39:37 > 0:39:39The one you thought was least likely to be pointless.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41Let's see how many people said it.
0:39:41 > 0:39:45If it is pointless, it'll win you £2,000.
0:39:45 > 0:39:46Well, it's right.
0:39:46 > 0:39:47Adam Garcia now takes us down
0:39:47 > 0:39:50through the bottom half of the column.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52If it goes down to pointless, it wins you £2,000.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55We're in the teens. We're going down in single figures.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58Still going down. 5 for Adam Garcia. Wow!
0:39:59 > 0:40:04- Well, very much the star of the film, Adam Garcia...- Yeah.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07..and only five of our 100 people got him.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09So, I think we can be a little bit more excited
0:40:09 > 0:40:11- about your next two answers. - Hopefully.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13Not a pointless answer, obviously.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16So, we move to your next answer which was John Goodman.
0:40:16 > 0:40:17Let's see how many people said this.
0:40:17 > 0:40:19Again, we're looking for cast members of Coyote Ugly.
0:40:19 > 0:40:22If it is pointless, it wins you £2,000.
0:40:22 > 0:40:26How many people said John Goodman?
0:40:27 > 0:40:28It's right.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32Adam Garcia took us all the way down to 5.
0:40:32 > 0:40:35John Goodman now takes us down through the teens.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37Into single figures. Down we go.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39We pass 5 to 4.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42- APPLAUSE - Oh, well done.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48Not a pointless answer. So, we move swiftly on
0:40:48 > 0:40:51to your third and final answer, which is Tyra Banks.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54This was the one you thought was most likely to be pointless.
0:40:54 > 0:40:57Let's find out. If Tyra Banks is pointless, it will win you £2,000.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59How many people said Tyra Banks?
0:41:02 > 0:41:06OK, we're off. Adam Garcia scored 5.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08John Goodman took us down one click to 4.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11Tyra Banks now takes us down through the 20s.
0:41:11 > 0:41:13Into the teens. Down we go into single figures.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15- We pass 5, we pass 4...- Oh!- At 2!
0:41:17 > 0:41:19Hard luck.
0:41:23 > 0:41:27Well, considering you, kind of, only had one engine to fly on, there,
0:41:27 > 0:41:31of those three options, you did incredibly well.
0:41:31 > 0:41:33Three very nice low scores there.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35Well, listen, I'm afraid you didn't manage to find
0:41:35 > 0:41:36the all-important pointless answer.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39So, I'm afraid, you don't win today's jackpot of £2,000.
0:41:39 > 0:41:41I have to say, you would have richly deserved if you had.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43That will roll over onto the next show -
0:41:43 > 0:41:46- but it's been brilliant having you here.- Thank you.
0:41:46 > 0:41:48Thank you for coming along and just being such a dynamo
0:41:48 > 0:41:50the whole way through this show. Low score after low school -
0:41:50 > 0:41:54- and you get a Pointless trophy. - Hooray!- That's all we came for.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56Thank you. Well done, Lucy.
0:41:56 > 0:41:57APPLAUSE
0:41:57 > 0:42:00Yeah, it was a great performance throughout. Very well played.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02I think the other actor you were thinking of
0:42:02 > 0:42:03- was Bridget Moynahan...- Yes!
0:42:03 > 0:42:06- ..and she was a pointless answer, I'm afraid.- Oh, no!
0:42:06 > 0:42:08That would have been an absolute cracker.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10We'll go through the pointless answers now.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13We'll start with Good Charlotte. Five pointless answers here.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15You could have had...
0:42:15 > 0:42:17..or Hold On.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20Very well done if you said one of those.
0:42:20 > 0:42:21Any character from Breaking Bad...
0:42:21 > 0:42:24Now, if you've seen it, you will get loads here
0:42:24 > 0:42:26because lots of the big characters are pointless answers.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29Let's take a look at a few of them. Gus Fring was a pointless answer.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31An amazing character. Hank and Marie, the Schraders,
0:42:31 > 0:42:33were both pointless answers.
0:42:33 > 0:42:36Walter White Jr, who was Walter White's son in it.
0:42:36 > 0:42:38Everybody in Breaking Bad apart from Walter White, Skyler White,
0:42:38 > 0:42:41Saul Goodman, Jesse Pinkman and Brandon Mayhew.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43Every other character who's been in five or more episodes
0:42:43 > 0:42:45was a pointless answer. So, well done if you got one.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48Now, the cast of Coyote Ugly.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51There's Bridget Moynahan. Johnny Knoxville was in the film, as well.
0:42:51 > 0:42:53Melanie Lynskey. Michael Bay is in the film.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55Everybody... We've had four names mentioned already.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57The only other two people who scored points,
0:42:57 > 0:43:00LeAnn Rimes would have scored you points and Maria Bello.
0:43:00 > 0:43:04- Everybody else a pointless answer. - Thank you very much, Richard.
0:43:04 > 0:43:07Well, Lucy and Steve, very sadly they didn't win our jackpot today
0:43:07 > 0:43:10which means it rolls over onto the next show
0:43:10 > 0:43:12where we will be playing for £3,000.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15APPLAUSE
0:43:16 > 0:43:18Join us then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:18 > 0:43:20- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:20 > 0:43:23..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:43:23 > 0:43:26APPLAUSE
