0:00:20 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:26 > 0:00:28the show where, the more obscure your knowledge,
0:00:28 > 0:00:31the better your chances of winning. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37And couple number one.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40Hi, I'm Anna, and this is my mum, Norma, and we're from Abingdon.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42- Couple number two. - Hi, I'm Jason, and this is Sarah,
0:00:42 > 0:00:44and we're both teachers from Southampton.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Couple number three.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Hi, I'm Allistair, this is my dad, Richard, and we're from Edinburgh.
0:00:49 > 0:00:50And finally, couple number four.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Hello, my name's Mike, I'm from Woodgreen in the New Forest,
0:00:53 > 0:00:55and this is my friend Adam, who's from Bournemouth.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57And these are today's contestants.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59APPLAUSE
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Thanks very much, all of you. Welcome to Pointless.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03We'll get to chat to each of you throughout the show
0:01:03 > 0:01:04as it goes along.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:07 > 0:01:08He's on another level.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10In fact, he's IN another level.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13And tonight, baby, he wants to get freaky with you.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15It's my pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:15 > 0:01:16Hiya.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Hey, everybody. Good afternoon.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24I honestly think that's too obscure a song to use as a reference.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27- Really?- If you don't know there's a band called Another Level who had
0:01:27 > 0:01:29a song called I Wanna Get Freaky With You,
0:01:29 > 0:01:32then that introduction is weird.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34Oh, they'll enjoy it, even if they don't understand it.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37It'll just be one of those weird intros.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39- Do you think?- Lord knows they've had enough of them.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42They sure have! We have two returning pairs from the last show -
0:01:42 > 0:01:43welcome back, Norma and Anna.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45- Thank you. - Got knocked out in Round One...
0:01:45 > 0:01:48- BOTH:- We did.- ..in the last show, so fingers crossed we'll see more of you.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Richard and Allistair, knocked out in Round Two as well.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53For the two shows in a row now, where, in our jackpot round,
0:01:53 > 0:01:55we've had a two-point answer as our last answer.
0:01:55 > 0:01:56So, it's been exciting.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- It has.- So, nice for the show and nice for everyone here
0:01:59 > 0:02:01because it means no-one's won the jackpot for a couple of shows.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03It's getting bigger, that jackpot.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Thank you. Ed and Andrew didn't win the jackpot last time
0:02:05 > 0:02:08is what we're saying, so we add another £1,000 to that,
0:02:08 > 0:02:12so today's jackpot starts off at £4,000. There we are.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26OK, remember this. The pair with the highest score at the end of each
0:02:26 > 0:02:28round will be eliminated.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31So, your only task, really, is to make sure those scores are lovely
0:02:31 > 0:02:34and low and you'll be fine. Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Our first category this afternoon is...
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:02:42 > 0:02:44who is going to go second? And, whoever is going first,
0:02:44 > 0:02:46please step up to the podium.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51OK, and the question concerns...
0:02:56 > 0:03:00- Richard?- Yeah, we're going to show you seven pairs of film titles here.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02They share a word and we've missed out that word.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Strangely enough, they also share an actor,
0:03:04 > 0:03:05who we're going to give you on the board.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08So, we're just looking for the word that's missing from the
0:03:08 > 0:03:09titles you're about to see.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Seven on the first board, seven on the second, 14 in all.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15- Good luck.- So, what are the missing words from these film titles?
0:03:15 > 0:03:17And we have on our first board...
0:03:46 > 0:03:49We're halfway through! Bear with me, I'm going to go back in.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Right, Anna, welcome back to Pointless.
0:04:09 > 0:04:10Round One last time.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Anna, remind us what you do.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14I'm a maths student at St Andrews University.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16And how is that going, St Andrews University?
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Did you know St Andrews at all before you started there?
0:04:19 > 0:04:23No, not at all. The first time I visited was for the open day.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24Did you know Scotland particularly well?
0:04:24 > 0:04:27- No, it was also the first time I went to Scotland.- So, there you are.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29That's terrible, first time in Scotland.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31But still, nice that you're there now,
0:04:31 > 0:04:32putting some Scottish roots down.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34What do you like getting up to, Anna?
0:04:34 > 0:04:36When I'm at home, I do a lot of walking with my dog.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38We've got a little springer spaniel puppy,
0:04:38 > 0:04:41so he takes a lot of my time up in the holidays and stuff.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43And then a lot more lazy when I'm at uni.
0:04:43 > 0:04:44So, less of that!
0:04:44 > 0:04:47As it should be. Now, Anna, there we are.
0:04:47 > 0:04:52Here are our films that share words and actors, which is impressive,
0:04:52 > 0:04:56- I think.- It is! OK, I'm going to go for...
0:04:58 > 0:05:00..the Tom Hanks one and say Saving.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Saving Mr Banks, Saving Private Ryan,
0:05:02 > 0:05:03let's see if it's right,
0:05:03 > 0:05:05let's see how many people said it.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09It's right.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12- Sorry!- Oh! 86.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16You've made a saving of 14 points there.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- There we are. - That's a big, big start.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22The very famous Omaha Beach scene in Saving Private Ryan
0:05:22 > 0:05:24was an extraordinary bit of cinema.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Cost 11 million.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Wow!
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Thank you very much, Richard.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Now, Sarah, welcome to Pointless, lovely to have you here.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35- Thank you.- From County Durham?
0:05:35 > 0:05:38- Yeah.- Lovely, and what do you do, Sarah?
0:05:38 > 0:05:42I've just finished a degree in popular music journalism.
0:05:42 > 0:05:43Oh, that's fun!
0:05:43 > 0:05:46- At Southampton Uni. - Did you have a brilliant time there?
0:05:46 > 0:05:49- It was OK! - What was the highlight for you?
0:05:49 > 0:05:53So, have you been doing lots of music journalism?
0:05:53 > 0:05:54I think I really enjoyed, like,
0:05:54 > 0:05:56reviewing gigs and stuff like that, mostly.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58But that's what music journalism is, isn't it?
0:05:58 > 0:06:00- That's mostly what it is, like, reviews.- What else?
0:06:00 > 0:06:03I suppose you review albums and singles, I suppose.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Yeah.- Right, now, where are we, Sarah
0:06:06 > 0:06:09vis-a-vis film titles that share words?
0:06:09 > 0:06:12I was going to go for the Tom Hanks one.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14Good job you didn't then, now we know what it scored.
0:06:14 > 0:06:19I'm going to guess the Doris Day one and say Wild.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21You're going to say...
0:06:22 > 0:06:25..Wild Man With A Horn and Wild At Heart.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- Oh! No, I'm afraid, on this occasion...- Oops!
0:06:35 > 0:06:37..that's an incorrect answer, Sarah,
0:06:37 > 0:06:39and that scores you 100 points.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42Whatever that first word's going to turn out to be,
0:06:42 > 0:06:43that's a curious name for a film.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46I'm just going to say that now.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Yeah, well, certainly for a Doris Day film.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Richard, welcome back.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52Great to have you here.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55We discovered last time that you now live in Cheltenham.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59You married and lived in Cheltenham, got you away from Edinburgh.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00That it has indeed, yes.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02But you were talking about your vinyl collection.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06- I was.- Your re-established vinyl collection and I wanted to know,
0:07:06 > 0:07:10did you have an interest in music before your financial services?
0:07:10 > 0:07:14Very much so, yeah. I was brought up in music and I was even a DJ back in
0:07:14 > 0:07:16the '80s, so there you go.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18So, what, just playing sort of parties and things?
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Yeah, no, working in nightclubs.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23But not doing the special things
0:07:23 > 0:07:25they do now and all that kind of stuff.
0:07:25 > 0:07:26You weren't a superstar DJ?
0:07:26 > 0:07:28- Not really, no, no.- I tell you what,
0:07:28 > 0:07:30if you want a definition of the word unimpressed,
0:07:30 > 0:07:31you want to look at your son's face.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34LAUGHTER
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Literally, he's like, "Yeah."
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- He's heard it before.- Richard,
0:07:38 > 0:07:40what would you like to go for on our board here?
0:07:44 > 0:07:47I'm going to go relatively safe now and say the top one.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49I hope that it's safe.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Mystic River, The River Wild.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53OK, River, says Richard.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:07:57 > 0:08:02It is River. 86 is our low score and you passed that quite comfortably.
0:08:02 > 0:08:03Down it goes. River Wild.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05That's very good indeed, 23.
0:08:10 > 0:08:11Great work, Richard, well played.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Yeah, it's a good film, Mystic River.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Quite bleak but very good.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18I haven't seen it. Thank you very much indeed.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19- Now, Mike.- Hello.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Welcome to Pointless, great to have you here.
0:08:21 > 0:08:26- What do you do, Mike?- I'm a data analyst for one of the big banks.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29And how long have you been analysing this data?
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Oh, more years than I would care to admit to.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- What are your interests, Mike? - I love movies,
0:08:35 > 0:08:36ever since I was little.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39This is good.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40That's good.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42And I like going for walks in the New Forest, where I live.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Very nice indeed. Do you have a dog?
0:08:44 > 0:08:47- I've got two dogs.- What are they called?- Penny and Charlie.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50They've just gone nuts cos they heard you saying that on the telly.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- They are now going woof, woof!- Ah.
0:08:52 > 0:08:53What sort of dogs are they?
0:08:53 > 0:08:55A dachshund and a Cairn terrier.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Ah. Lovely, do they get on with the horses,
0:08:58 > 0:08:59the many horses of the New Forest?
0:08:59 > 0:09:01- They do, they get very excited. - Oh, that's nice.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Now, Mike, you are the last person.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05And do you know, I think you can mop this up,
0:09:05 > 0:09:08because this fits precisely into your area of expertise?
0:09:08 > 0:09:13Well, Tom Cruise is Tropic Thunder and Days Of Thunder.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16I can't think what the Sean Connery film is.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19Possibly Man, but I don't know for sure.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21I really can't think what the Morgan Freeman one is.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Black Dahlia and Black Hawk Down,
0:09:23 > 0:09:26but I'm going to go for Young Man With A Horn
0:09:26 > 0:09:28and Young At Heart.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32OK, let's go for Young for those two.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Let's see how many of our 100 people said Young.
0:09:42 > 0:09:4432, very well done indeed.
0:09:45 > 0:09:46Good answer there, Mike.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52You are correct about Tropic Thunder, Days Of Thunder.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55That would have scored you 56 points.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58Your hunch on the next one was right as well,
0:09:58 > 0:09:59it's The Next Man and A Good Man In Africa.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01It would have scored you 9 points,
0:10:01 > 0:10:02so it would have been a risky one to do,
0:10:02 > 0:10:06especially when there's a team on 100, but your instincts were right.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10Last Vegas and Last Knights.
0:10:10 > 0:10:11Morgan Freeman, 7 points.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13And you are quite correct about the bottom one -
0:10:13 > 0:10:16The Black Dahlia and Black Hawk Down.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18That would have scored 71 points.
0:10:18 > 0:10:19So, Last is the best answer up there.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Thank you very much, Richard.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24We're halfway through the round, let's look at those scores.
0:10:24 > 0:10:2523, Richard And Allistair.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27There we are, very well done indeed.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Nice, low-scoring skills there.
0:10:29 > 0:10:3232 is where we find Mike and Adam, 86 - quite a jump -
0:10:32 > 0:10:34is where we find Anna and Norma,
0:10:34 > 0:10:36and then up to 100, where we find Sarah and Jason.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39So, Jason, you know what you have to do.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41You might be able to keep yourselves out of trouble.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Best of luck with that. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:49 > 0:10:51OK, let's put seven more pairs of films up on the board
0:10:51 > 0:10:53and here they are.
0:10:53 > 0:10:54We have got...
0:11:15 > 0:11:16I'm going to read those all again.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35There we are, Adam, welcome.
0:11:35 > 0:11:36Good to have you with us, Adam.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40- What do you do?- I write computer systems for big banks,
0:11:40 > 0:11:43so that they can... People like Mike can analyse the data.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Can analyse the data.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47- Yes, it's all data-based.- Oh, so you're part of the chain there.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51Adam's doing it, you're providing the data, passing it to Mike...
0:11:51 > 0:11:53- That's exactly right. - ..for him to analyse.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55So, do you meet through work?
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Yeah, we met about 30 years ago.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Ah! Doing exactly the same jobs?
0:11:59 > 0:12:02- No.- No?- Slightly different jobs, more clerical jobs when we started.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05In those days, were you providing something clerical for Mike,
0:12:05 > 0:12:08- for him to just look at...? - That's very much what happened.
0:12:08 > 0:12:12OK, there we are. Adam, what do you like getting up to when you're not doing that system stuff?
0:12:12 > 0:12:16I like going to a lot to live shows, like the theatre.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18I like going to see music gigs.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20I've been to the Rugby World Cup.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22When the Olympics was in London,
0:12:22 > 0:12:26I got to see Usain Bolt and have been to quite a few of those.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Very exciting indeed.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Anyway, this will do for the time being, I should imagine.
0:12:30 > 0:12:34- I think so, yeah.- Nice low scores from that end of the line.
0:12:34 > 0:12:3832 means that 67 or less means you won't even become the high-scorers
0:12:38 > 0:12:40after two answers.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43- What would you like to go for? - I know a few.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47But I think the one I'll go for is Five Easy Pieces, Easy Rider.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49Easy for Jack Nicholson.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51OK, here is your red line, let's see how easy it is.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53How many of our 100 people said it?
0:12:56 > 0:12:57It's right.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01And you are through, very well done indeed.
0:13:01 > 0:13:0247.
0:13:02 > 0:13:0547, and your total is 79.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Yeah, he was nominated for Oscars for both of those,
0:13:08 > 0:13:10and in successive years as well.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Hm. Thank you, Richard.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Now, Allistair,
0:13:14 > 0:13:16welcome back. Now, remind us what you do.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19I'm an assistant manager at a live music venue in Edinburgh.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21A live music venue in Edinburgh.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Now, does your live music venue
0:13:23 > 0:13:26become extra busy during the festival?
0:13:26 > 0:13:28- Do you have...?- Usually.
0:13:28 > 0:13:32We have had acts on in the festival, but, at the moment,
0:13:32 > 0:13:35we're not doing that due to other bookings that we have.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Oh, so someone's got a private party.
0:13:37 > 0:13:38Basically, yeah.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Basically, we can't have anything for the festival,
0:13:41 > 0:13:42- which is a shame. - Oh, that's a shame.- Yeah.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Now, Allistair, how are we feeling about these films?
0:13:45 > 0:13:48There's a couple up there. Well, there's a couple that I know
0:13:48 > 0:13:49and there's one I think I know.
0:13:49 > 0:13:53And so I'm going to go for that one and say Denzel Washington, Fire.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Fire. Man On Fire, Courage Under Fire.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59It makes perfect sense. There is your red line.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02If you can get under that, you are through to the next round.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Let's see how many of our 100 people said Fire.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Look at that, very well done
0:14:10 > 0:14:11indeed - 67.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14That is brilliant economy, is what that is, Allistair.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Takes your total up to 90 and sees you through.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20I think we've got to doff our cap to the Pointless question researchers
0:14:20 > 0:14:22for coming up with 14 pairs of films,
0:14:22 > 0:14:25all of which share a star and a word.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27I mean, that's painstaking research.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29- It's impressive, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:14:29 > 0:14:30Thank you very much indeed.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Now, Jason, welcome.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35- What do you do, Jason?- I'm a student at Southampton Solent.
0:14:35 > 0:14:36So, you're still there?
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Sarah has now gone. What are you studying there?
0:14:39 > 0:14:41- Law and criminology.- And how much longer have you got to go?
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- I've got another two years. - Another two years?
0:14:44 > 0:14:46You are enjoying the law and criminology?
0:14:46 > 0:14:47- Yeah, it's really good.- That's good.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Jason, you are on 100, you are our high-scorers.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Some of these people have already given two answers.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55Well, we have a contest on our hands here.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57So, it is between you and Norma.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58She has a slight advantage.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Um...
0:15:02 > 0:15:03I'm going to go for Gene Hackman,
0:15:03 > 0:15:06Behind Enemy Lines and Enemy Of The State.
0:15:06 > 0:15:07Enemy for Gene Hackman.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09No red line for you, as you are the high-scorers.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Let's see how far down the column we get with Enemy.
0:15:15 > 0:15:16It's right. Oh!
0:15:17 > 0:15:1883.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22That's a big score.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25183 is your total, but you are still...
0:15:25 > 0:15:28There's a world in which you might make it through to the next round.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Of course, NME is the sort of answer a music journalism student
0:15:31 > 0:15:33- should get.- There you are, exactly.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37There we go. Now, Norma,
0:15:37 > 0:15:39- welcome back.- Thank you.
0:15:39 > 0:15:40Welcome back. Remind us what you do.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43I'm a speech and language therapist.
0:15:43 > 0:15:44Speech and language therapist.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46And also a fantastic cook.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48Well, I'd like to think so.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Basically, I was picking this up
0:15:50 > 0:15:53- just from some of the comments last time.- Yeah.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55What sort of things do you cook?
0:15:55 > 0:15:58If you were cooking a dinner party and you really wanted to show off,
0:15:58 > 0:16:00what would you do?
0:16:00 > 0:16:02I really love Indian food,
0:16:02 > 0:16:05so I would probably go for a spread of dishes,
0:16:05 > 0:16:10maybe a main biryani or something, and little vegetable side dishes.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13And we love to make our own naan bread and chapatis.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Have you got a special oven for that?
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- Or just put it in a normal oven? - No, it would be much better if we had the tandoor.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20We just have to crank our oven up really high.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22So, hang on, how do you do that?
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- You put it on a little paddle and pop it in.- Yeah, under the grill.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Poppadom? Sorry. There we are.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30You do it under the grill and it puffs up like magic, actually.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- Yeah!- Mm! What are you going to go for?
0:16:34 > 0:16:38But bearing in mind you want to score 96 or less.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Oh, OK. Right, well, I think that that might be Playing By Heart
0:16:41 > 0:16:43and A Mighty Heart -
0:16:43 > 0:16:45about the Daniel Pearl journalist.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48I think it's American Hustle and American Psycho
0:16:48 > 0:16:53for the Christian Bale one. I don't know the Rock Hudson one.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55But presumably, that bottom one
0:16:55 > 0:16:58is Dangerous Liaisons and Dangerous Minds.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03I think I'll go for American Hustle and American Psycho.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07American Hustle, American Psycho, here is your red line.
0:17:07 > 0:17:08Get below that, you're through.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11How many of our 100 people went for American?
0:17:13 > 0:17:15It's right and you're through.
0:17:17 > 0:17:2054, perfectly good.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22Takes your total up to 140.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24You took us through the board very nicely.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Playing By Heart and A Mighty Heart, as you say,
0:17:26 > 0:17:28it's the Daniel Pearl movie.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31That would have been the best answer, 7 points for that.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Very well done, anyone who said that at home.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35- Lover?- Come Back?
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Lover Come Back, Come September.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Rock Hudson film, 30 points.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41And Dangerous Liaisons, Dangerous Minds.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45- That would have scored 58. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48So, at the end of our first round, one pair we have to send home
0:17:48 > 0:17:51and I am sorry to say, Jason and Sarah, it is you.
0:17:51 > 0:17:52However, you will be back next time.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55We'll look forward to that very much and I hope you'll go much further
0:17:55 > 0:18:01then. But in the meantime, thanks very much, Jason and Sarah.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Right, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:18:08 > 0:18:09And so, three pairs remain.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12You're going to have to fight it out between you to see who stays at the
0:18:12 > 0:18:15end and who leaves at the end of this round.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Richard, the lowest score,
0:18:17 > 0:18:19the lowest individual scorer of that round,
0:18:19 > 0:18:21so very well done. Mike and Adam, the lowest combined,
0:18:21 > 0:18:22so very well done indeed.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Norma and Anna, well done,
0:18:24 > 0:18:26you knew a lovely low-scoring answer, but I think you probably did
0:18:26 > 0:18:29the right thing. Just better to be safe than sorry.
0:18:29 > 0:18:30Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33Our category for Round Two today is...
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first,
0:18:36 > 0:18:38who's going to go second? And whoever is going first,
0:18:38 > 0:18:40please step up to the podium.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:18:55 > 0:18:58- Richard?- Yeah. So, we're looking for anyone who's ever got
0:18:58 > 0:19:01to the quarterfinals or beyond of a World Snooker Championship,
0:19:01 > 0:19:04from 1977 all the way through to 2016, please.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Thank you very much, Richard.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09So, there we are. Norma, it's like a dream come true.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12A snooker round!
0:19:13 > 0:19:16Um, Graeme Dott, is that a snooker player?
0:19:16 > 0:19:18- Graeme Dott.- Yeah.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Graeme Dott, OK, let's see if that is right.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Let's see how many of our 100 people said Graeme Dott.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27It is a snooker player.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34And it's a very, very good answer.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Norma, very well done indeed, Graeme Dott.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Scoring you 4, like a brown.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43Yeah, world champion in 2006, Graeme Dott.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46See, that's the mark of someone super bright.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48When a category comes up they know nothing about,
0:19:48 > 0:19:50they still get a pretty solid answer there.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53- So, it's very well played. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55OK, now, Richard?
0:19:55 > 0:19:56Yes.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59- HE SIGHS - Stuck between two. Um...
0:20:00 > 0:20:02I'll go with Peter Ebdon.
0:20:02 > 0:20:03Peter Ebdon, says Richard.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05Let's see how many of our 100 people said Peter Ebdon.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09It's right.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17It's another good answer, look at that.
0:20:17 > 0:20:182, Peter Ebdon.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Very good.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Yeah, 2002 champion, Peter Ebdon.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Thank you, Richard. Adam.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29The pressure is on.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30Yeah.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33I think I'll go for Doug Mountjoy.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35Doug Mountjoy, says Adam.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Doug Mountjoy.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44It's another correct answer, 4 is our highest score, 2 is our low.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Oh, it's another 2!
0:20:51 > 0:20:52Very good indeed.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Yeah, reached the final in 1981, Doug Mountjoy.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59He's one of those guys who only turned pro at 34.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Got in right when it became absolutely massive,
0:21:02 > 0:21:03won lots of tournaments.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Very good. Thanks, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07Let's take a look at those scores.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10Only two scores between the three pairs. 2, 2 and 4.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14Adam and Mike, Richard and Allistair all paired on the two there.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Norma and Anna, there you are on a four.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Anna?
0:21:18 > 0:21:19I'm hoping you know your snooker inside out
0:21:19 > 0:21:22- because we need a nice, low score... - Couldn't know less about snooker!
0:21:22 > 0:21:25- ..from you.- OK, very best of luck with this next pass.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27We're going to come back down the line now.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:33 > 0:21:34OK. So, Mike, remember,
0:21:34 > 0:21:38we are looking for any World Snooker Championship quarterfinalist or
0:21:38 > 0:21:40- beyond.- Can't think of the last time I watched snooker on television,
0:21:40 > 0:21:43it was a long time ago,
0:21:43 > 0:21:46so I'm going to say Ray Reardon.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Ray Reardon, says Mike.
0:21:48 > 0:21:49Here is your red line.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53There it is, quite low.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Let's see how far down the column we get with Ray Reardon.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00It's right.
0:22:04 > 0:22:0617 for Ray Reardon.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10Takes you up to 19.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14- The game is afoot.- Yeah, six-time World Champion, Ray Reardon.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18- Another Welshman. - Thank you very much, Richard.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20OK, someone has broken ranks now
0:22:20 > 0:22:22from the low scores of the first pass,
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Allistair, which takes a little bit of pressure off.
0:22:24 > 0:22:28If you can score 16 or less, you are through to the next round,
0:22:28 > 0:22:31- to the head-to-head.- Don't think I'm going to get 16 with this answer,
0:22:31 > 0:22:33but I'm going to go with Stephen Hendry.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Stephen Hendry, says Allistair.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38Here is your red line.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41Get below it, you're into the head-to-head.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43How many people said Stephen Hendry?
0:22:51 > 0:22:5230 for Stephen Hendry,
0:22:52 > 0:22:54takes your total up to 32.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Yeah, won 70 matches in the World Championships in 27 consecutive
0:22:59 > 0:23:01appearances and won it seven times,
0:23:01 > 0:23:04seven-time World Champion, Stephen Hendry.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Now then, the door is open for you, Anna.
0:23:06 > 0:23:07The door is open.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09You are on 4.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12If you can score 27 or less,
0:23:12 > 0:23:15the head-to-head awaits.
0:23:15 > 0:23:16The head-to-head doesn't await,
0:23:16 > 0:23:19I've never seen a snooker match in my life.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Are we in making up someone's name territory?
0:23:21 > 0:23:22I'm going to make up a name.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24- This could be brilliant. - That's how little I know!
0:23:24 > 0:23:27You've got to picture, picture a snooker player.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29- OK.- Listen to the voice of the commentator,
0:23:29 > 0:23:31what is the commentator saying?
0:23:31 > 0:23:33He is saying...
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Mark Henderson?
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Mark Henderson, OK.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Mark Henderson.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42There's your red line, Mark Henderson.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43Addressing the table.
0:23:46 > 0:23:50Let's see how many of our 100 people said Mark Henderson.
0:23:50 > 0:23:51Is it right?
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Oh. On this occasion, I'm afraid, an incorrect answer.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59I'm afraid no Mark Henderson, that scores you 100 points,
0:23:59 > 0:24:01takes your total up to 104.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Yeah, sorry about that. Mark Selby would have scored you 6,
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Mark Williams would have scored you 3,
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Marco Fu would have scored you 2 points.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Let's take a look at some pointless answers.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12The Australian, Eddie Charlton.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Fred Davis, who reached the semifinals at 64 years old.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20James Wattana from Thailand, used to call him the Thai-Phoon.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23That was in the era of Hurricane Higgins and Whirlwind White.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27Kirk Stevens, the Canadian, Matthew Stevens, another Welshman.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29The brilliant Neal Foulds, does a lot of commentary these days,
0:24:29 > 0:24:31very good at it as well.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34And Neil Robertson, Stuart Bingham, very recent World Champion,
0:24:34 > 0:24:36is a pointless answer.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37The Maltese player Tony Drago.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40You could have had Paul Hunter, you could have had Ricky Walden,
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Joe Perry, Anthony Hamilton, Barry Hawkins, Stephen Maguire,
0:24:43 > 0:24:45Silvino Francisco, lots of pointless answers out there.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Thank you very much indeed. So, we are at the end of our second round,
0:24:48 > 0:24:52we have to say goodbye to a pair. And I'm so sorry, Anna and Norma,
0:24:52 > 0:24:56our returning friends from the last show, we have to say goodbye to you.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58This is the end of the pointless road for you,
0:24:58 > 0:25:00but it's been great having you on.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Thank you so much for playing. Anna and Norma.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05APPLAUSE
0:25:05 > 0:25:08But, for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Congratulations, Mike and Adam,
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Richard and Allistair, you are now one step closer to the final
0:25:18 > 0:25:22and a chance to play for that jackpot, which, lest we forget,
0:25:22 > 0:25:25stands at £4,000.
0:25:28 > 0:25:29And the lovely news is,
0:25:29 > 0:25:32because we're now in the head-to-head,
0:25:32 > 0:25:34you can now confer before you give your answers.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36First player to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39Best of luck to you all. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48Here comes your first question.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50And it is all about...
0:25:52 > 0:25:55Live music, very popular on both teams there.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57Concert Venues is the first question. Richard?
0:25:57 > 0:26:01Yeah, we're going to show you five pictures now of live music venues from around the world.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03We're looking for where you would find these venues, please.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05The cities you would find these venues.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08OK, here are our five live music venues.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10And we have got...
0:26:41 > 0:26:45There we are, five live music venues.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47Mike and Adam, you will go first.
0:26:48 > 0:26:52- What do you reckon? - Is A the Royal Opera House?
0:26:52 > 0:26:56We'll have to go Royal Albert Hall, D, because I don't know that.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58OK, Mike and Adam, what would you like to go for?
0:26:58 > 0:27:01We're going to go for E as Cardiff.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04E, Cardiff, says Mike and Adam.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Now then, Richard and Allistair.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08Richard and Allistair, do you want to talk us through the board?
0:27:08 > 0:27:10C is Sydney.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13D, we think, is London.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16You said A is Vienna?
0:27:16 > 0:27:18OK, we've got A, Vienna.
0:27:18 > 0:27:19A, Vienna.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22So, we have E, Cardiff and A, Vienna.
0:27:22 > 0:27:26Mike and Adam said Cardiff for E, let's see if that's right,
0:27:26 > 0:27:28let's see how many of our 100 got that.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33It most certainly is Cardiff.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37And that's a good score, down it goes.
0:27:37 > 0:27:3918, very well done indeed, Mike and Adam.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46Richard and Allistair meanwhile have gone for A.
0:27:46 > 0:27:50Not many visual clues beyond just the building itself there.
0:27:50 > 0:27:54So, yes, you have said Vienna for that, let's see if Vienna is right,
0:27:54 > 0:27:56let's see how many of our 100 people said Vienna.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01Not Vienna.
0:28:01 > 0:28:03Not Vienna, which means well done, Mike and Adam,
0:28:03 > 0:28:06after the first question, you are up 1-0.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08Yeah, you had to have a guess at it after Cardiff,
0:28:08 > 0:28:11that's a very good answer. It's actually Paris.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Would have scored you 6 points.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15B, it's in Germany.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18It's the Berlin Philharmonie.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20It was a pointless answer as well, so very well done if you said that.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22That is where the Berlin Philharmonic play?
0:28:22 > 0:28:23- Yeah.- What about that?
0:28:23 > 0:28:27C is, of course, Sydney.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29Scores 88 points.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34Now, D, it is the Royal Albert Hall.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36It's in London, what do you think that scored?
0:28:36 > 0:28:38You would hope in the 80s, at least.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40- 40 points for that. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42OK, here comes your second question.
0:28:42 > 0:28:44Richard and Allistair, you get to answer it first
0:28:44 > 0:28:46but you have to win it to stay in the game, so good luck.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48Our second question is all about...
0:28:51 > 0:28:53Yep. Pirates. Richard?
0:28:53 > 0:28:55Five clues now to facts about pirates.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58Can you give us the best answer, please?
0:28:58 > 0:29:01OK, let's reveal our five pirate facts and here they come.
0:29:01 > 0:29:02We have got...
0:29:25 > 0:29:27I'll read those all one last time.
0:29:48 > 0:29:50There we are, Richard and Allistair will go first.
0:29:50 > 0:29:53Maybe the top one?
0:29:53 > 0:29:58OK, I don't know the second one. The last one, I might know.
0:29:58 > 0:30:01Going to go for the second one and say Captain Pugwash.
0:30:01 > 0:30:04Captain Pugwash, say Richard and Allistair.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Now then, Mike and Adam,
0:30:06 > 0:30:08the board is yours, talk us through it.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10That's the one we would have gone for.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13The first one is Johnny Depp, obviously.
0:30:13 > 0:30:17I don't know the Italian name for Red Beard.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19I know Italian's rosso, but...
0:30:19 > 0:30:22Leader of the pirates is Long John Silver.
0:30:22 > 0:30:26Pirate radio station, I think, is Caroline.
0:30:26 > 0:30:27OK, we'll go Radio Caroline.
0:30:27 > 0:30:30Radio Caroline. So, we have Captain Pugwash, we have Radio Caroline.
0:30:30 > 0:30:34Now, Richard and Allistair said Captain Pugwash for the John Ryan
0:30:34 > 0:30:36creation, let's see if that's right.
0:30:38 > 0:30:40It is Captain Pugwash.
0:30:43 > 0:30:44And that scores you 30.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51Meanwhile, Mike and Adam have gone for Radio Caroline,
0:30:51 > 0:30:53the pirate radio station.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it if it is.
0:30:58 > 0:30:59It is right.
0:31:02 > 0:31:0449 is what you scored there.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06Very well done, Richard and Allistair, back in the game.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08After two questions, it's 1-1.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11Yeah, and you know what? You knew the leader of the pirates and that
0:31:11 > 0:31:13would have seen you into the final, Long John Silver.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15- It's a much lower scorer than you'd think.- Really?
0:31:15 > 0:31:19Yeah, it would have scored you 21 points.
0:31:19 > 0:31:20Wow.
0:31:20 > 0:31:24The US actor, Johnny Depp, that's the biggest score up there.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26Scored 66.
0:31:26 > 0:31:30And I wasn't familiar with the expression byname.
0:31:30 > 0:31:31It's Barbarossa.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34- Barbarossa, it's a name we all know, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37Tough to get from that clue, 7 points for that.
0:31:37 > 0:31:38Very well done if you said that at home.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41There we are, OK. So, it all comes down to a decider.
0:31:41 > 0:31:45Best of luck to both players. Our third question today is all about...
0:31:47 > 0:31:50- Richard?- That's nice, isn't it?- Mm.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53We're going to give you five clues now to parts of our digestive system
0:31:53 > 0:31:55and give you the answers with alternate letters removed.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57Can you fill in those gaps, please?
0:31:57 > 0:32:00Hmm, OK. Let's reveal our five clues and here they come.
0:32:28 > 0:32:29So, we have...
0:32:42 > 0:32:45- Mike and Adam, you'll go first. - I think three or four.
0:32:45 > 0:32:47- Can you tell me what they are? - I think three is the one to go for.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Go for it.
0:32:49 > 0:32:50OK, Mike and Adam?
0:32:50 > 0:32:55We will go for the third one, which is the ileum.
0:32:55 > 0:32:56The ileum.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01So then, Richard and Allistair, we come to you.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03Talk us through the board.
0:33:03 > 0:33:04We've got pancreas, gall bladder,
0:33:04 > 0:33:08duodenum and oesophagus.
0:33:08 > 0:33:11Duodenum. Yeah, shall we do that?
0:33:11 > 0:33:14Yeah, fourth one. Duodenum.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17So, we have ileum and we have duodenum.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19So, Mike and Adam went for ileum, let's see if that's right.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21Let's see how many of our 100 said that.
0:33:24 > 0:33:25It's right.
0:33:29 > 0:33:3031 for ileum.
0:33:32 > 0:33:36Meanwhile, Richard and Allistair have gone for duodenum.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:33:41 > 0:33:42It's right.
0:33:44 > 0:33:4649 for duodenum.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50Which means very well done indeed, Adam and Mike.
0:33:50 > 0:33:54After three questions, you are through to the final 2-1.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Yeah, very well played, best two answers on the board there.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59Let us fill in the rest of these, shall we?
0:33:59 > 0:34:00Pancreas, of course,
0:34:00 > 0:34:02produces those enzymes,
0:34:02 > 0:34:04that would have scored 77.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06The next one, much more famous,
0:34:06 > 0:34:08even than the Sydney Opera House.
0:34:08 > 0:34:10The gall bladder.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13That would have scored you 93 points.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15And the tube which moves food down to the stomach.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18- The oesophagus.- The oesophagus.
0:34:18 > 0:34:20And that would have scored 66.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Thank you very much, Richard. So, the pair leaving us
0:34:22 > 0:34:24at the end of the head-to-head, Richard and Allistair,
0:34:24 > 0:34:27I'm afraid this is where we have to say goodbye to you.
0:34:27 > 0:34:28It's been great to have you on the show.
0:34:28 > 0:34:30But thanks so much, Richard and Allistair.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33APPLAUSE
0:34:33 > 0:34:36But for Mike and Adam, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:41 > 0:34:42Congratulations, Mike and Adam.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44You've seen off all the competition
0:34:44 > 0:34:46and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £4,000.
0:34:59 > 0:35:00CHEERING
0:35:03 > 0:35:05Well, well done is all I can say.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08Fantastic, your first appearance on the show
0:35:08 > 0:35:10and straight through to the final.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12What do you want to see come up in this round?
0:35:12 > 0:35:13Something with a film.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15Something with a film theme of any kind.
0:35:15 > 0:35:16OK, film.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19Anything else, Adam? What are you going to be bringing to the party?
0:35:19 > 0:35:24Maybe sort of sporting things like FA Cup finals, World Cups,
0:35:24 > 0:35:25- something like that.- We shall see.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28- We shall see.- Let's see, let's see what we serve up for you.
0:35:28 > 0:35:29I have no idea, obviously,
0:35:29 > 0:35:32but four things will appear on that screen behind me.
0:35:32 > 0:35:35We've just got to hope one of them appeals to you in a small way.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37Best of luck. Let's see what's today's selection looks like.
0:35:37 > 0:35:38We have got...
0:35:44 > 0:35:45What do you think?
0:35:45 > 0:35:49I think that Characters In Stage Love Stories, no, Beach Boys, no.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52Premier League Football Achievements,
0:35:52 > 0:35:54I think that's too recent for me.
0:35:54 > 0:35:58I think we've got to go New York and hope there's a film category.
0:35:58 > 0:35:59New York, please.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02OK, New York. You're hoping for a film angle.
0:36:02 > 0:36:05- New York, Richard. - OK, very, very best of luck.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07We are looking for any of the following three, please.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11We're looking for anybody who's appeared in two or more episodes of
0:36:11 > 0:36:14Friends. Any actor who has appeared in two or more episodes of Friends.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17Some people, utter dream category that, I know.
0:36:17 > 0:36:21We are looking for any mayors of New York City since 1900
0:36:21 > 0:36:22up to 2016.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25Or we are looking for any players of the two Major League football teams,
0:36:25 > 0:36:27New York City or New York Red Bulls
0:36:27 > 0:36:29in 2016, please. So...
0:36:34 > 0:36:36Now, as always, you've got up to
0:36:36 > 0:36:38one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40All you need for that jackpot win
0:36:40 > 0:36:42is for just one of those answers
0:36:42 > 0:36:44to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:36:44 > 0:36:47- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:36:47 > 0:36:48There they are, your time starts now.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51I have literally never seen a single episode of Friends, unfortunately.
0:36:51 > 0:36:55Mayor Giuliani is the only one that I know there and no way is that...
0:36:55 > 0:36:56Is Ed Koch?
0:36:56 > 0:36:59I'm sure it's Koch.
0:36:59 > 0:37:00Ed Koch. Ran in the '70s for mayor.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03- Go with that. - Do you know any of the...?
0:37:03 > 0:37:04The Red Bulls are going to be...
0:37:04 > 0:37:08Frank Lampard, I think, plays for the Red Bulls, but again,
0:37:08 > 0:37:10there's no way that's going to be pointless.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13There is no way that Giuliani is going to be pointless.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15Friends, Bruce Willis was in Friends.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17And that's...
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Who else?
0:37:19 > 0:37:23Tom Selleck was in Friends, but they've all been in it too much.
0:37:23 > 0:37:24I can't think of anyone,
0:37:24 > 0:37:28I want someone who's only been in it three times, sort of thing.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30I'd go for Selleck and Willis.
0:37:30 > 0:37:31It ain't going to be good enough.
0:37:32 > 0:37:36I'm just trying to think of somebody else that's been in Friends
0:37:36 > 0:37:38but only in a couple of episodes.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41- Ten seconds left.- Nobody.
0:37:41 > 0:37:42I haven't seen an episode.
0:37:47 > 0:37:49Can't think of...
0:37:49 > 0:37:52OK, that is your time up. I now need your three answers.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55If you could say what category you're answering in, that'd be great.
0:37:55 > 0:37:58Right, Ed Koch for Mayor of New York.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00- OK.- And then go Bruce Willis.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02- Bruce Willis.- And Tom Selleck.
0:38:02 > 0:38:03And Tom Selleck.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:06 > 0:38:07- Koch.- Ed Koch.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09Least likely to be pointless?
0:38:09 > 0:38:11- Bruce Willis.- Bruce Willis. Tom Selleck goes in the middle.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14OK, let's pop those answers are on the board in that order then,
0:38:14 > 0:38:16and here we are.
0:38:16 > 0:38:20We have got Bruce Willis, Tom Selleck and Ed Koch.
0:38:20 > 0:38:22Well, very, very best of luck.
0:38:22 > 0:38:26If one of these were to win that jackpot for you, four grand,
0:38:26 > 0:38:28what would you like to do with that?
0:38:28 > 0:38:29- Mike, you first.- Well,
0:38:29 > 0:38:31my lovely other half, Ali,
0:38:31 > 0:38:33has already bagsed it towards her new car.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36- Hooray, you get a nice ride in that. - I would indeed.- Adam, how about you?
0:38:36 > 0:38:39Me and my wife are both 50 this year
0:38:39 > 0:38:42and we are going to go on a holiday to America.
0:38:42 > 0:38:44Go up the West Coast.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46- Very good.- So, I will be putting it towards that.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48Well, congratulations and happy birthday...
0:38:48 > 0:38:50- Thank you very much. - ..when it comes to you both!
0:38:50 > 0:38:53OK, well, let's find out how we do with these answers.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55Bruce Willis, in this case, we were
0:38:55 > 0:38:58looking for any actor who's appeared in two or more episodes of friends.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00If this is pointless, it will win you £4,000.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02Let's see how many of our 100 people said Bruce Willis.
0:39:06 > 0:39:07It's right.
0:39:08 > 0:39:10Now, all it has to be is pointless,
0:39:10 > 0:39:12and then you will win £4,000.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14Bruce Willis takes us down through the 30s,
0:39:14 > 0:39:16down through the 20s, into the teens.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Into single figures, just.
0:39:18 > 0:39:209 for Bruce Willis.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25Good answer! Sadly though, not a pointless answer.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28So, we move swiftly to your next answer, which is Tom Selleck.
0:39:28 > 0:39:29Again, we are looking for actors
0:39:29 > 0:39:32who appeared in Friends two or more times.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34If this is pointless, it wins you £4,000.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36How many people said Tom Selleck?
0:39:38 > 0:39:40Again, it's right. Bruce Willis,
0:39:40 > 0:39:43your first answer, took us all the way down to 9.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46Tom Selleck now takes us down through the 30s.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49Into the 20s, into the teens.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51Oh, not quite into single figures. We've gone to 10.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58- So, not a pointless answer.- Kind of knew that was going to happen.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00We move onto your third and final answer.
0:40:00 > 0:40:03We are now looking for mayors of New York.
0:40:03 > 0:40:04You've gone for Ed Koch.
0:40:04 > 0:40:06This was the answer you thought
0:40:06 > 0:40:08was your best shot at a pointless answer.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10If it is pointless, it will win you £4,000.
0:40:10 > 0:40:12How many people said Ed Koch?
0:40:15 > 0:40:16- It's right.- It's right!
0:40:16 > 0:40:19Ed Koch is right, you found that from somewhere
0:40:19 > 0:40:21at the back of your mind there, Mike.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24Ed Koch takes us down through the teens.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26We're into single figures, down it goes, down it goes,
0:40:26 > 0:40:27still going to go.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29GROANS
0:40:34 > 0:40:35Oh.
0:40:38 > 0:40:41Oh, that's got to smart a bit, hasn't it?
0:40:41 > 0:40:44Oh! Oh, one person remembered Ed Koch.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47Oh, I'm so sorry. You've done so well.
0:40:47 > 0:40:49Unfortunately though, you just
0:40:49 > 0:40:51didn't find that irritating pointless answer
0:40:51 > 0:40:52that we were looking for.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55So, I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £4,000.
0:40:55 > 0:40:56That will roll over the next show.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59But you have been magnificent right the way across the show.
0:40:59 > 0:41:00Thank you so much for coming.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02You get to take a Pointless trophy home each.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04So, very, very well done, Mike and Adam.
0:41:09 > 0:41:12Gents, that's a very, very unlucky. I said at the start of the show,
0:41:12 > 0:41:14we've had two shows in a row where in the jackpot round
0:41:14 > 0:41:16we scored 2 points and you've scored 1 point.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18You bettered it but not quite enough.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21Let's take a look at the pointless answers. We'll start with Friends.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23I'll tell you some of the 1-pointers.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Lots of fans of Friends would have gone for some low...
0:41:25 > 0:41:282 points for Elliott Gould and Helen Baxendale.
0:41:28 > 0:41:291 point for Reese Witherspoon,
0:41:29 > 0:41:31James Michael Tyler who plays Gunther.
0:41:31 > 0:41:33Jennifer Saunders, Kathleen Turner, Sean Penn,
0:41:33 > 0:41:35Christina Applegate and Elle Macpherson.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37And these are some of your pointless answers.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Alec Baldwin, pointless answer.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45Gary Oldman, Hank Azaria, who does lots of the voices on The Simpsons.
0:41:45 > 0:41:48Teri Garr, you also could have had Dermot Mulroney,
0:41:48 > 0:41:51you could have had Giovanni Ribisi, who plays Frank, Phoebe's brother.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53You could have had a Morgan Fairchild, Olivia Williams,
0:41:53 > 0:41:56Paul Rudd, who plays Mike, was also a pointless answer.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58- Really?- Well done if you said any of those.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00Let's take a look now at mayors of New York City.
0:42:00 > 0:42:01This is a tough one.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06David Dinkins, some people at home might have got,
0:42:06 > 0:42:08probably the most famous name on the list.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13The only ones that scored points at all were, alongside Ed Koch,
0:42:13 > 0:42:14Rudy Giuliani would have scored you 16,
0:42:14 > 0:42:16Michael Bloomberg would have scored you 6
0:42:16 > 0:42:19and 1 point for Bill de Blasio and Fiorello La Guardia.
0:42:19 > 0:42:22They'd have scored 1 point. Every other mayor was a pointless answer.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25These New York City and New York Red Bulls players,
0:42:25 > 0:42:27there will be a name you know up here,
0:42:27 > 0:42:28which is Shaun Wright-Phillips.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30I know some people at home would have said that,
0:42:30 > 0:42:32I would have gone for Bradley Wright Phillips,
0:42:32 > 0:42:33his brother, who scored 1 point.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35So, I would have done the same as you.
0:42:37 > 0:42:39The only players who scored points at all were Frank Lampard,
0:42:39 > 0:42:42who you mentioned, David Villa, Bradley Wright-Phillips,
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Andrea Pirlo and Lloyd Sam. Everyone else a pointless answer.
0:42:44 > 0:42:46Very well done if you got one at home.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Well, Mike and Adam,
0:42:49 > 0:42:51very sadly, didn't win our jackpot today
0:42:51 > 0:42:53which means it rolls over onto the next show,
0:42:53 > 0:42:55when we will be playing for £5,000.
0:42:57 > 0:43:00Join us then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
