0:00:20 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:24 > 0:00:26the show where the aim of the game
0:00:26 > 0:00:28is to find the most obscure answer possible.
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Let's meet today's players.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37- Couple number one. - I'm Gerry, this is my wife Heather,
0:00:37 > 0:00:39we're from South Lakeland.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42- Couple number two.- I'm Andrew, this is my girlfriend Carmel,
0:00:42 > 0:00:44and we live in Brixton.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47- Couple number three.- Hi, I'm Dougie from Elderslie in Scotland,
0:00:47 > 0:00:50and this is my good friend and work colleague Alex from East Kilbride.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52And finally, couple number four.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Hi I'm Amy, this is my husband John, and we're from Birmingham.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56And these are today's contestants.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59A very warm welcome to each and every one of you.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Lovely to have you with us.
0:01:01 > 0:01:02We'll get a chance to chat to each of you
0:01:02 > 0:01:04throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06So, that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09If the police had to make up an e-fit
0:01:09 > 0:01:13of what a genius with 11 convictions for shoplifting might look like,
0:01:13 > 0:01:14it would be that.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Hiya. Hey, everybody. Hiya.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20APPLAUSE
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Good day to you.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25- Good day.- Lots of people returning from the last show.- I know!
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- That's nice, isn't it? - Isn't it nice?
0:01:27 > 0:01:29We've got three pairs, and only one new pair.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32We've got someone who's eight and a half months pregnant
0:01:32 > 0:01:33on the show today.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36See if you can spot that at any point during the show!
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Yeah. Something for you to think about.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41- Yeah.- Round One, slightly different to a round we've done before.
0:01:41 > 0:01:42I mean, it's similar,
0:01:42 > 0:01:44but a slightly different form of asking the question,
0:01:44 > 0:01:46which is quite fun, I think.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48I like it already.
0:01:48 > 0:01:49- Yeah?- I don't even know what it is.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51I know you don't. You're going to find out.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54I'm still reeling from the revelation on the last show
0:01:54 > 0:01:56- that a wombat is not a bat. - I know, I know.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- Extraordinary. - And, I said I thought it was a bat,
0:01:59 > 0:02:02and because you said to me "I also thought it was a bat,"
0:02:02 > 0:02:04I felt strong enough to say that.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07And then, you know, literally everyone in the world
0:02:07 > 0:02:08knew that it wasn't.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Literally, we're the only two people in Britain
0:02:10 > 0:02:13who didn't know a wombat wasn't a bat. We're, like, idiots.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15- I know.- I shouldn't have mentioned it two shows in a row, really.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18I know. Oh, well. Anyway, thank you very much indeed.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Now, Phil and Jill didn't win the jackpot last time,
0:02:20 > 0:02:22so we add another £1,000 to that -
0:02:22 > 0:02:25so, today's jackpot is double the size of last time's.
0:02:26 > 0:02:27There we are. APPLAUSE
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:36 > 0:02:37Remember this -
0:02:37 > 0:02:40the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:40 > 0:02:42will be eliminated. The pair with the highest score.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44So, keep your scores nice and low. Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Our first category, this is going to be exciting...
0:02:47 > 0:02:49..today is...
0:02:51 > 0:02:52Already exciting.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Song titles. Can you decide in your pairs
0:02:54 > 0:02:56who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:10 > 0:03:12What about that? Richard, synonyms.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Yes, on each board we're going to show you
0:03:14 > 0:03:15seven UK number one singles.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17We're not going to give you their real titles,
0:03:17 > 0:03:18we're going to give you a synonym,
0:03:18 > 0:03:20a different description of the title.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22You just have to tell us what the title was, please.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Seven on the first board, seven on the second.
0:03:24 > 0:03:2514 in all to have a go at at home.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27- That's fun. - Are they all one word titles?
0:03:27 > 0:03:29- No.- Ah!
0:03:29 > 0:03:31It just gets better and better, doesn't it, Heather?
0:03:31 > 0:03:33What about that?
0:03:33 > 0:03:36OK, so we are looking for the actual titles of these songs,
0:03:36 > 0:03:38and we're just going to provide the synonyms.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Here is our first board of seven.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42We've got...
0:04:13 > 0:04:16This is my favourite round ever. I'm going to read those all again.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Heather, welcome back to Pointless.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Aren't you glad you came back for this?
0:04:42 > 0:04:44- I certainly am! - Lovely to have you back with us.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- Thank you.- Remind us what you like getting up to in Cumbria,
0:04:47 > 0:04:48in South Lakeland.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Well, in my spare time I like to cook and do my garden,
0:04:51 > 0:04:54and look after my cats and walk on the fells.
0:04:54 > 0:04:55How many cats have you got?
0:04:55 > 0:04:5715.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02- Oy, oy, oy.- Whoa.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04When do you reach peak cat, I wonder?
0:05:04 > 0:05:09- Six actually belong to us...- Right. - ..and nine are feral cats.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11OK. But they sort of live out in the...
0:05:11 > 0:05:13They do, then we reintroduce them to where they've been living.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16That's nice. So basically they look on you as a soft touch.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- I'm afraid so.- That's where they come for their food.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22- Yes.- Now, Heather, what would you like to go for on our board?
0:05:22 > 0:05:25I definitely know two, and there's one I'm not too sure of it.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29So, I'm going to have to go for the one I know,
0:05:29 > 0:05:31which is Madonna, Papa Don't Preach.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Papa Don't Preach, says Heather.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Let's see how many of our 100 people said Papa Don't Preach.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40It's right.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Look at that, 50. APPLAUSE
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Exactly halfway down the column.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Heather, a great start to the round, very well done. 50.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50Yeah - also a hit single for Kelly Osbourne.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- She had a number three hit. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55- Carmel.- Hello.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Welcome back. Now, remind us what you do.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00I'm a costume supervisor at a London drama school.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02When did you start there?
0:06:02 > 0:06:04I've only been there a year and a half,
0:06:04 > 0:06:06but it's the third drama school that I've worked at now.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10I see. Why does she keep leaving all these jobs at drama schools?
0:06:10 > 0:06:14That is exciting. So how many big shows a year are there?
0:06:14 > 0:06:16- I suppose at drama schools there are always big shows.- Um...
0:06:16 > 0:06:18..15 to 20.
0:06:18 > 0:06:19- That's a lot.- Yeah.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22That is a lot. I mean, were you particularly drawn to drama school
0:06:22 > 0:06:24rather than going to a theatre?
0:06:24 > 0:06:27Um...it's nice, because it's a daytime job,
0:06:27 > 0:06:29- which is quite hard to come by in theatre.- That's a very good point.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Yes, your evenings are your own.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- Yeah, exactly.- Very nice indeed.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37- Now, Carmel...- Yes.- ..what would you like to go for on our board here?
0:06:37 > 0:06:38Well, I know a few of them,
0:06:38 > 0:06:41but I think I'm going to go for the second one down,
0:06:41 > 0:06:43and I think that's Thinking Out Loud.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Thinking Out Loud, says Carmel.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46Let's see if that's right for Ed Sheeran.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48How many of our 100 people said it?
0:06:51 > 0:06:52It's right.
0:06:58 > 0:07:0113, very well done indeed, Carmel. APPLAUSE
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Great score, there, for Ed Sheeran.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05Yeah, it was the first song
0:07:05 > 0:07:08ever to reach 500 million streams on Spotify,
0:07:08 > 0:07:11- Thinking Out Loud.- 500 million!
0:07:11 > 0:07:14Yeah, he made over £7.40 from those.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:07:18 > 0:07:19- Alex.- Yes, sir.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- Remind us, what do you do? - A civil servant in Glasgow.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23- A civil servant, based in Glasgow... - Yes.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25..but where are you from, somewhere else?
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- East Kilbride, about ten miles away. - East Kilbride.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30- So, how far is that?- Ten miles. - Oh, I see. A nice easy commute.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32And what are your hobbies, Alex?
0:07:32 > 0:07:34- Golf...- Do you run a golf club?
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Oh, no, just a junior section.
0:07:37 > 0:07:38The junior section of the golf club.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40What does that actually mean?
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Arranging competitions, going to watch them play matches.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44- Right.- Administration.
0:07:44 > 0:07:48- And a sort of social involvement, presumably.- Yeah, I love it.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50- They're a good bunch of kids... - Lovely.- ..from 8 to 18.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Very good. Now, Alex, what would you like to go for on our board here?
0:07:55 > 0:07:59I'm going to go for Oops!... I Did It Again, Britney Spears.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Oops!... I Did It Again, says Alex.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Let's see how many of our 100 people said Oops!... I Did It Again.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09Well, it's right. 50 is our highest score at this point.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11You pass 50.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13APPLAUSE 31, very nice indeed,
0:08:13 > 0:08:15for Oops!... I Did It Again.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19There's a very good version of it by Richard Thompson.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20- Oh, is there?- Yeah.- That's nice.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23I know Travis do a very nice version of Baby One More Time, as well.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Yeah. Now, John.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- Hello.- Welcome to the show, nice to have you here - from Birmingham.
0:08:28 > 0:08:29- Yes.- What do you do, John?
0:08:29 > 0:08:32I'm a solicitor, and I work for the local authority.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36Very good - and what else do you like getting up to in Birmingham?
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Well, I used to play a fair bit of rugby.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42I now don't. I was going to do more refereeing,
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- but now we have our first baby on the way...- Aww.- ..I'm painting.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47It's mainly painting.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Now, very imminent in fact, the first baby.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51- Yes.- It's so exciting!
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Have you got the cot, you've got all the stuff?
0:08:53 > 0:08:55All your muslins?
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Some, but not everything...
0:08:57 > 0:08:59- Right.- ..but we've got time.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01OK. Car seat?
0:09:01 > 0:09:02- Yes.- Car seat, this is important.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05- Yes.- Very good.- But also, one of our camera operators, lovely Leila,
0:09:05 > 0:09:07also eight and a half months pregnant,
0:09:07 > 0:09:10so that's nice. So, it's like a race between the two of you.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12- Yeah, yeah.- Statistically we could be in trouble.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Oh, we could. Better get on with it.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Now, John, this is your board. Talk us through it.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21Well, I think I'm going to go with Christina Aguilera -
0:09:21 > 0:09:23but, from the bottom,
0:09:23 > 0:09:25is it (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction?
0:09:25 > 0:09:26I've no idea about Busted,
0:09:26 > 0:09:29but it would be something like Crashed The Wedding.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Dancing Queen...
0:09:31 > 0:09:34..but, I'm hoping the top answer is Dirrty.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37That should really say "In Need of a Wwwwash",
0:09:37 > 0:09:40with about four Ws, I think. Dirrty, says John.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Let's see if that's right.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Let's see how many of our 100 people said Dirrty.
0:09:47 > 0:09:48It is Dirrty.
0:09:52 > 0:09:5425 for Dirrty. APPLAUSE
0:09:54 > 0:09:55Very well done indeed.
0:09:57 > 0:09:58Well played, John.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Took us through the board very nicely, as well.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Look at that. Can I just say I love this round.- It's good, isn't it?
0:10:21 > 0:10:23- It's a great round.- We've got seven more.- Yeah. Let's do more.
0:10:23 > 0:10:24Thank you very much indeed.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Well, we're halfway through the round.
0:10:26 > 0:10:27Let's have a look at those scores.
0:10:27 > 0:10:3013, the best score of the pass. Well done, Carmel.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Superb work, there. Then up to 25 is where we find John and Amy.
0:10:32 > 0:10:3431's where we find Alex and Dougie.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36And 50 is where we find Heather and Gerry.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Now Gerry, you were the high-scorers
0:10:38 > 0:10:39halfway through the first round last time,
0:10:39 > 0:10:41and, I'm afraid, the high-scorers
0:10:41 > 0:10:43at the END of the first round last time.
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Please can that not happen again this time?
0:10:44 > 0:10:46We can't be saying goodbye to you
0:10:46 > 0:10:48at the end of the first round twice running.
0:10:48 > 0:10:49We'll come back down the line now.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:10:53 > 0:10:57OK, let's put seven more song title synonyms up on the board,
0:10:57 > 0:11:00and let's see what treats we have in store.
0:11:34 > 0:11:35I'm just going to read those again.
0:12:00 > 0:12:01Amy, welcome to Pointless.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03- Hello.- Lovely to have you here.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07Now, we know what your immediate future has in store.
0:12:07 > 0:12:08Very exciting indeed -
0:12:08 > 0:12:10but what do you do generally?
0:12:10 > 0:12:13- I'm a criminal barrister by profession.- Right you are -
0:12:13 > 0:12:16and how long are you taking off from the criminal...?
0:12:16 > 0:12:19I'm self-employed, so it sort of depends when the money runs out.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Oh, yes, that's... Yes.
0:12:21 > 0:12:22I'm hoping for about nine months.
0:12:22 > 0:12:23Nine months, that's nice.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26- Very good indeed.- Yeah. - Oh, what fun!
0:12:26 > 0:12:29You're at the beginning of the most fantastic journey.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31Amy, what are your interests?
0:12:31 > 0:12:34I like cryptic crosswords, I like reading...
0:12:34 > 0:12:37She'll never get to do those again for years!
0:12:37 > 0:12:39Yes, all those things I'm never going to have time for.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42I like sewing, I've just taken up sewing recently.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45- Lovely. Very nice.- I've made this dress that I'm wearing.
0:12:45 > 0:12:46Now, that's impressive!
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Quite often when people come on and they have a hobby
0:12:48 > 0:12:51and they've made something they're wearing, we have to be polite.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Feel free to be polite, it's fine!
0:12:55 > 0:12:56"And I made this necklace I'm..."!
0:12:59 > 0:13:00Anyway, Amy,
0:13:00 > 0:13:02what would you like to go for on this board?
0:13:02 > 0:13:04I think I know most of them,
0:13:04 > 0:13:08and I think I'm going to go for the Carly Rae Jepsen one,
0:13:08 > 0:13:09which is Call Me Maybe.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11Call Me Maybe, says Amy.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13You're on 25, the high-scorers are Gerry and Heather,
0:13:13 > 0:13:1624 or less is your target. There's your red line.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19It's right.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Oh, look at that! 26. APPLAUSE
0:13:25 > 0:13:28I think that's good enough, 51 is your total.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32One of the most extraordinarily catchy songs of all time.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35That was actually top of the very first streaming chart in the UK.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Really? Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Now, Dougie, welcome back to Pointless.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43- Thank you.- You, like Alex, are a civil servant.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45- Yes.- Tell us something else about yourself, Dougie.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47What other things do you like getting up to?
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- What are your interests and hobbies? - Well, a similar theme,
0:13:50 > 0:13:53I'm a massive music fan, and I try to go to as many gigs as possible,
0:13:53 > 0:13:55and I also go to musical festivals abroad.
0:13:55 > 0:13:56I've been to Lisbon and Madrid
0:13:56 > 0:13:58to see big festivals over there this year.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01So, rather than standing in mud in Glastonbury and Glasgow,
0:14:01 > 0:14:04I like to go and see music in the sun.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06- Perfect.- Very good indeed, Dougie.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Very sensible approach, may I say.
0:14:08 > 0:14:0919 is your target.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11- Yeah.- 19 or less gets you through.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14OK, I'll go for the bottom one.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother, by The Hollies.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother, says Dougie.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:14:20 > 0:14:21There is your red line.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25It's right.
0:14:29 > 0:14:30Not bad at all. APPLAUSE
0:14:30 > 0:14:3222, look at that, taking your total up to 53.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37- I thought that might score more, I have to say.- So did I.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39I prefer our title.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42- Oh, yes.- Do you know who played the piano on that recording?
0:14:42 > 0:14:45- Bob Holness.- It was not Bob Holness.
0:14:45 > 0:14:46It was not.
0:14:46 > 0:14:47- It was Elton John.- Really?
0:14:47 > 0:14:49- Yeah.- Extraordinary.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51Now, Andrew. Andrew, welcome back.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55- Remind us what you do.- I work in IT, for a drama school, as well.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Now, if you work in IT for a drama school,
0:14:58 > 0:15:01does that mean in the holidays you can generally put your feet up?
0:15:02 > 0:15:04No, generally when the students aren't there
0:15:04 > 0:15:05I can get more work done.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07- Ah.- Because they are kind of not in the way.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Does that mean during term time you can put your feet up, Andrew?
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Yes, all the time, yeah!
0:15:11 > 0:15:12No, it's fairly busy.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15I am in fact the entire IT department,
0:15:15 > 0:15:16so it's quite busy all the time.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18I see. Very good. Now, there you are on 13,
0:15:18 > 0:15:20fabulous low score from Carmel.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22The high-scorers at the moment are Dougie and Alex and 53,
0:15:22 > 0:15:26so 39 or less keeps you very much in play.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Yeah. I...
0:15:28 > 0:15:31I just, I can't figure out which of those will be the lowest.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33I'm going to have to take a guess.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37I'm fairly sure it's right, at the top one,
0:15:37 > 0:15:38Stay Another Day.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Stay Another Day, says Andrew.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Stay Another Day.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46"Remain for one additional rotation of the Earth".
0:15:46 > 0:15:47There is your red line.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49If you can get below that with Stay Another Day,
0:15:49 > 0:15:50you're through to the next round.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:15:58 > 0:15:59You're through.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03APPLAUSE 18, very well done indeed,
0:16:03 > 0:16:05taking your total up to 31.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Yeah, that's one of those ones
0:16:07 > 0:16:10- I can't really imagine Brian Harvey singing that.- Not so much.
0:16:10 > 0:16:11- Funnily enough.- Not so much.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Thank you very much indeed.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Now, then, Gerry. Now, then, Gerry, yes.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18- Yeah.- Welcome back to Pointless to start with.
0:16:18 > 0:16:19Lovely to have you here.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Remind us what you like getting up to in Cumbria.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24I'm quite keen on photography,
0:16:24 > 0:16:26we walk a lot, I read a lot,
0:16:26 > 0:16:28and listen to music a lot.
0:16:28 > 0:16:29Lovely. All beautiful things.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32- It's all nice, chilling stuff. - In those surroundings, as well.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34- Absolutely. - Perfect place to be.- Yes.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37Gerry, you... A little bit of a mountain to climb here.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39- Yeah.- One hobby you didn't list.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41You have a target of two.
0:16:41 > 0:16:46Yes - and I can't see any of those that will score two or less.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48Would you like to talk us through that board?
0:16:48 > 0:16:52You've got Men in Black, then you've got Great Balls of Fire,
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Hello Goodbye, and Bridge Over Troubled Water.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00- Er... Hello Goodbye.- Hello Goodbye.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02- Hello Goodbye says Gerry. - Which could be prophetic.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05Surely... Oh, well, you never know.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07- You never know.- Well, fingers crossed.- There is your red line.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09If you can get below that with Hello Goodbye,
0:17:09 > 0:17:12you are through to the next round. Let's see what happens.
0:17:12 > 0:17:13Hello Goodbye.
0:17:15 > 0:17:16It's right.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22Oh, 20. APPLAUSE
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Not a bad score at all.
0:17:24 > 0:17:2820, sadly it takes your total up to 70.
0:17:28 > 0:17:29Yeah, and well played, everyone, there.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31Those were the lowest four answers on the board
0:17:31 > 0:17:34that our four pairs gave us, there, so it's very nicely done.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36So, we'll fill in these top three.
0:17:49 > 0:17:50Thank you very much indeed.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51So we are at the end of our first round,
0:17:51 > 0:17:53and we have to say goodbye to one of our pairs -
0:17:53 > 0:17:55and I'm so sorry, Gerry and Heather,
0:17:55 > 0:17:56you are the pair we have to say goodbye to.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Far too soon on both shows you've been on
0:17:58 > 0:17:59for us to be sending you home,
0:17:59 > 0:18:01but it's been lovely having you with us.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Thank you so much for playing. Gerry and Heather.
0:18:03 > 0:18:04APPLAUSE
0:18:07 > 0:18:10For the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16So, three pairs remain,
0:18:16 > 0:18:19and at the end of this round we will have to say goodbye to another pair.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Andrew and Carmel, once again, our lowest combined score, there,
0:18:23 > 0:18:25and Carmel our lowest individual score
0:18:25 > 0:18:27with your Ed Sheeran song, there.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29So, very well done. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Our category for this round is...
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:18:37 > 0:18:38who's going to go second?
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:18:50 > 0:18:54to name as many people born in the 20th century
0:18:54 > 0:18:57in line to the UK throne as they could.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00People born in the 20th century in line to the UK throne.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03- Richard.- Yes, we're looking for anyone in the first 50 places
0:19:03 > 0:19:06in the line of succession to the throne, please,
0:19:06 > 0:19:08who were born in the 20th century.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10So anybody on that list who was born in the 20th century
0:19:10 > 0:19:12according to Whitaker's Almanack.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16The one answer we won't accept is the 14th in line to the throne,
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Alexander Armstrong. We won't accept him.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Everybody else you can have.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22This is of August 2016.
0:19:22 > 0:19:23Very good.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Carmel.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30Not a great topic for me, I have to say.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33I'm going to go for Princess Eugenie.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35- I think that's how you say it. - Princess Eugenie.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37- Yeah.- OK, let's see if that's right.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39Let's see how many of our 100 people said Princess Eugenie.
0:19:49 > 0:19:5021 APPLAUSE
0:19:51 > 0:19:5421 for Princess Eugenie.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Yeah, born in 1990.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58She had an interesting thing recently
0:19:58 > 0:20:00where both her boyfriend and her dog were called Jack.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05- Oh...- That's awkward, isn't it? - That is awkward.- Yeah.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Thanks very much. Alex.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09Who would you like to go for?
0:20:09 > 0:20:13On a similar theme, I think, Princess Beatrice.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15OK, Princess Beatrice, says Alex.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25It's right. 21 for Eugenie, where is Beatrice going to end up?
0:20:27 > 0:20:2821! APPLAUSE
0:20:28 > 0:20:29That is nice.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34- Very amicable arrangement there. - That's nice, isn't it?
0:20:34 > 0:20:36She's seventh in line to the throne,
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Eugenie is eighth, but they've scored the same.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40That's nice, that's going to be useful in that household, isn't it?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43- That is.- You would not want those bragging rights.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45- That is great. Yeah, you wouldn't. You just wouldn't.- Can you imagine?
0:20:45 > 0:20:49- Sisters - if one of them had scored, like, even one more.- I know, I know.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Phew! Thank you very much indeed.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54- Now, Amy.- Yes.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59I had an answer, but I'm not sure she's old enough,
0:20:59 > 0:21:00so I think I'm going to say Peter Phillips.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Peter Phillips, says Amy.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Peter Phillips. Ooh, I wonder who her answer was!
0:21:05 > 0:21:09- Mmm.- Mmm. "She", not old enough...
0:21:09 > 0:21:11..but she's gone for Peter Phillips.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Peter Phillips. Let's see how many of our 100 people
0:21:13 > 0:21:14said Peter Phillips.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Look at that. Oh, down to two! APPLAUSE
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Amy! Look at that.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32Leaving his York cousins in his wake.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35- Look at that.- Yeah, 13th in line to the throne,
0:21:35 > 0:21:37the Queen's eldest grandchild Peter Phillips.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41Now, his now wife, Autumn Kelly, when they first started dating,
0:21:41 > 0:21:43six weeks into the relationship with Autumn Kelly,
0:21:43 > 0:21:44she's sitting at home with her mum
0:21:44 > 0:21:47watching a documentary about Prince William,
0:21:47 > 0:21:48and that, six weeks into the relationship,
0:21:48 > 0:21:50was the first time she knew
0:21:50 > 0:21:52that Peter Phillips was a member of the Royal family.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55He had chosen not to tell her. Which is quite good, isn't it?
0:21:55 > 0:21:57- That is good.- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:21:57 > 0:21:58I wonder if that was a nice surprise for Autumn?
0:21:58 > 0:22:00I think, maybe - if you're watching with your mum
0:22:00 > 0:22:03and suddenly you discover, that's quite fun, isn't it?
0:22:03 > 0:22:05- That's quite fun.- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07- Very modest.- It reflects well on him, doesn't it?
0:22:07 > 0:22:08Doesn't it? Very well indeed. Thank you.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11We're halfway through the round - let's take a look at those scores.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Two was the best score of that pass, Amy, very well done indeed to you.
0:22:14 > 0:22:1621 - ooh, this is exciting.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Joint high-scorers Alex and Dougie, and Carmel and Andrew.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20We're going to come back down the line now.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:22:26 > 0:22:28OK. Now, then, John.
0:22:30 > 0:22:34Well, I had someone in mind, but my wife used that answer,
0:22:34 > 0:22:36so I've had a bit of a panic.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38However, I have got an answer.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42Zara Tindall, or Zara Phillips before she got married.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Oh, you're hoping to get extra points for saying Zara Tindall.
0:22:45 > 0:22:46I'm not sure it works like that!
0:22:46 > 0:22:49But anyway, let's see how many of our 100 people
0:22:49 > 0:22:51said Zara Phillips, or Tindall.
0:22:51 > 0:22:52There is your red line.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55Get below that, head-to-head, definitely.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Very well done. Look at that, down to seven.
0:23:07 > 0:23:08APPLAUSE
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Taking your total up to nine.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Very good, through you go to the head-to-head.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Yes, 16th in line to the throne.
0:23:14 > 0:23:18She's qualified as an equine physiotherapist, Zara Tindall.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20The interesting thing about that relationship
0:23:20 > 0:23:23is Mike Tindall still doesn't know she's a member of the Royal family.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30- Now then, Dougie.- Mm...- Dougie.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Not a great subject for me.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36I'm going to have to go for quite an obvious one and say Prince Andrew.
0:23:36 > 0:23:37Prince Andrew, says Dougie.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40Prince Andrew. Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43You're joint high-scorers, so there's no red line for you.
0:23:46 > 0:23:47It's right.
0:23:50 > 0:23:5242 for Prince Andrew,
0:23:52 > 0:23:54taking your total up to 63. APPLAUSE
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Yes, sixth in line to the throne, the Duke of York.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03Now then, Andrew.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09- Andrew.- Yeah, a few of the ones I was thinking of have gone.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11I was going to use Zara Phillips, as well.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14I think there's something in my head
0:24:14 > 0:24:16that says there's a Princess Michael.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Princess Michael of Kent, I think it is.
0:24:20 > 0:24:21- OK.- That's what I'm going to go for.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24You're going to go for Princess Michael of Kent.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27That's earnt you a little buzz of something from our audience.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Let's discover what that something was.
0:24:29 > 0:24:30There is your red line.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32How many of our 100 people said Princess Michael of Kent -
0:24:32 > 0:24:34but, crucially, is it right?
0:24:37 > 0:24:39- Sorry.- Bad luck I'm afraid.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42That's an incorrect answer, Andrew, scores you 100 points,
0:24:42 > 0:24:44takes your total up to 121.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46Yeah, sorry - she does exist, but she married into that family,
0:24:46 > 0:24:48and the person she's married to
0:24:48 > 0:24:49is, of course, Prince Michael of Kent,
0:24:49 > 0:24:51and he would have scored you one point,
0:24:51 > 0:24:54so, he would have been a terrific answer, I'm afraid.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Have you got any answers here? I bet you have.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Oh, I'll go for the Duke of Kent.
0:24:59 > 0:25:00The Duke of Kent...
0:25:01 > 0:25:03..one point, very nicely done.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Lots of pointless answers. Let's take a look at a few of them.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08The youngest name on our list, born in 1999,
0:25:08 > 0:25:09Charles Armstrong-Jones.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12Columbus Taylor, that's a good name.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23There's a few other answers.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26Arthur Chatto, Cassius Taylor, the Earl of Ulster,
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Lady Amelia Windsor, Lady Davina Lewis,
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Samuel Chatto and the Earl of St Andrews.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32All of those are pointless answers.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34- Shall we take a look at the top three?- I think yes.
0:25:34 > 0:25:35What most of our 100 people said.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Look at that.
0:25:44 > 0:25:49- Look at that.- Now, that is a Christmas table I now want to see!
0:25:49 > 0:25:50- Yeah.- With Prince Charles going,
0:25:50 > 0:25:53"Yeah, I did watch the line of succession to the throne thing,
0:25:53 > 0:25:55- "William, yeah."- "Yes, I did."
0:25:55 > 0:25:56Harry would be so cool.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59- Harry doesn't mind.- Yeah, he's fine. - He'd be very comfortable in third.
0:25:59 > 0:26:00He likes to be out of the...
0:26:00 > 0:26:03..but these two, that is trouble, isn't it?
0:26:03 > 0:26:05- That is...- Can you imagine?
0:26:05 > 0:26:08So, I'll tell you who will be putting a video of that on
0:26:08 > 0:26:10- on Christmas Day. - The Queen?- No, Prince Philip.
0:26:10 > 0:26:14- Oh, yeah!- He'll go, "I might watch something, I think.
0:26:14 > 0:26:15"Wills, Charles, take a look at this."
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Thank you very much indeed. We are at the end of our second round,
0:26:18 > 0:26:20and the pair we have to say goodbye to,
0:26:20 > 0:26:21with their high score of 121,
0:26:21 > 0:26:23they were our low scorers in the last show,
0:26:23 > 0:26:25but this, I'm afraid, is where they have to bow out.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27It's been lovely having you on the show,
0:26:27 > 0:26:29thank you so much for playing. Andrew and Carmel.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31APPLAUSE
0:26:31 > 0:26:34But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41Congratulations, John and Amy, Dougie and Alex.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43You are now one step closer to the final,
0:26:43 > 0:26:46and a chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands at £2,000.
0:26:46 > 0:26:47There we are.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49APPLAUSE
0:26:49 > 0:26:52Well, the big news is we've arrived at the head-to-head,
0:26:52 > 0:26:54which means you can chat before you give your answers,
0:26:54 > 0:26:56and the first pair to win two questions
0:26:56 > 0:26:57will be playing for that jackpot.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:27:05 > 0:27:10Our first question today is all about cricket grounds.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12- Richard.- We're going to show you five pictures now
0:27:12 > 0:27:13of cricket grounds from around the world.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15We need you to name these grounds, please.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17We'll give you alternate letters of their names.
0:27:17 > 0:27:18Thank you very much indeed.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21Let's reveal our five cricket grounds - and here they come.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23We have got...
0:27:47 > 0:27:49There we are.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51There are five cricket grounds.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54John and Amy, you're our low scorers, so you will go first.
0:27:54 > 0:27:55THEY WHISPER
0:28:00 > 0:28:04We've got an answer. We'd like to go for A,
0:28:04 > 0:28:06and the answer is Eden Gardens.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08Eden Gardens, say John and Amy.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10Eden Gardens. Now, Dougie and Alex.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14THEY CONFER
0:28:18 > 0:28:20Er, C...which we think
0:28:20 > 0:28:24is Western Australia Cricket Association Ground.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26OK. You're going to go for the Waca.
0:28:26 > 0:28:29So we have Amy and John saying Eden Gardens,
0:28:29 > 0:28:31and Western Australian Cricket Association Ground
0:28:31 > 0:28:34from Dougie and Alex. So, John and Amy, Eden Gardens,
0:28:34 > 0:28:37let's see how many of our 100 people got that for A.
0:28:40 > 0:28:41It's right.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48That's a great answer.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50Eight for Eden Gardens. APPLAUSE
0:28:51 > 0:28:53Dougie and Alex, meanwhile,
0:28:53 > 0:28:55have gone for the Western Australian Cricket Association Ground.
0:28:55 > 0:28:56Let's see if that's right,
0:28:56 > 0:28:59let's see how many of our 100 people got that for C.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05It's right.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11Look at that, down to two! APPLAUSE
0:29:11 > 0:29:13I didn't think anything was going to beat Eden Gardens.
0:29:13 > 0:29:15Very well done indeed, Dougie and Alex,
0:29:15 > 0:29:18and it means after one question you are up 1-0.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21Yeah, I would have thought those two scores would be roughly reversed,
0:29:21 > 0:29:23but, as you say, "the Waca" they know that as.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30Lord's would have scored you 92 points.
0:29:30 > 0:29:31Nearly a century.
0:29:31 > 0:29:35D is Trent Bridge, in Nottingham
0:29:42 > 0:29:43Another big scorer.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:29:46 > 0:29:47So, here comes your second question.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49Dougie and Alex get to answer it first,
0:29:49 > 0:29:52but, John and Amy, you have to win this one to stay in the game,
0:29:52 > 0:29:53so very best of luck with that.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55Our second question today is all about...
0:29:59 > 0:30:01- Richard.- We're going to give you five clues now
0:30:01 > 0:30:02relating to rooms in literature -
0:30:02 > 0:30:04can you give us the most obscure answer?
0:30:04 > 0:30:06I've got nothing more than that!
0:30:06 > 0:30:08Let's find out what that means.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10Five clues to rooms in literature.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35I'll read those all again.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58Dougie and Alex will go first.
0:30:58 > 0:30:59THEY CONFER
0:31:05 > 0:31:09We're going to go for the top one, 1949 novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11Nineteen Eighty-Four, say Dougie and Alex.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15Now then, John and Amy, what would you like to go for?
0:31:15 > 0:31:16Do you want to talk us through the board?
0:31:16 > 0:31:18We don't know all of them.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20The War of the Worlds is HG Wells -
0:31:20 > 0:31:22but I think we're going to go for the Bloomsbury Group author,
0:31:22 > 0:31:24who I think was Virginia Woolf.
0:31:24 > 0:31:25Virginia Woolf.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28So, we have Nineteen Eighty-Four and we have Virginia Woolf.
0:31:28 > 0:31:30Dougie and Alex said Nineteen Eighty-Four,
0:31:30 > 0:31:32let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:31:35 > 0:31:36It's right.
0:31:39 > 0:31:4153 for Nineteen Eighty-Four. APPLAUSE
0:31:45 > 0:31:48And John and Amy have named Virginia Woolf
0:31:48 > 0:31:50as the author of A Room of One's Own.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53Let's see how many of our 100 people got Virginia Woolf.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00Virginia Woolf beats Nineteen Eighty-Four.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04Down it goes, very well done. 11 for that.
0:32:04 > 0:32:05APPLAUSE
0:32:05 > 0:32:07John and Amy, that's exactly what you needed.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10Back in the game - after two questions, it's 1-1.
0:32:10 > 0:32:12If you have to guess the Alan Ayckbourn one?
0:32:12 > 0:32:131950s?
0:32:13 > 0:32:16- '70s, actually.- '70s!- '70s. Yeah.
0:32:29 > 0:32:31Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:32:31 > 0:32:34So, we move onto our third question, and this is the decider.
0:32:34 > 0:32:36Whoever wins this one goes through to the final.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38Best of luck to both pairs.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41Our third question today is all about...
0:32:43 > 0:32:46- Richard.- We'll show you the titles now of five British TV panel shows,
0:32:46 > 0:32:48but in the form of anagrams.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51Can you unscramble these, please? Very best of luck both teams.
0:32:51 > 0:32:52Thanks very much indeed.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54Let's reveal our five mixed up panel shows -
0:32:54 > 0:32:55and here they are.
0:33:09 > 0:33:10I'll read those all again.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21John and Amy will go first.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24THEY WHISPER
0:33:29 > 0:33:33I think we're going to go for Cheek Met Wok being Mock the Week.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35Mock the Week say John and Amy.
0:33:35 > 0:33:39Mock the Week. Now, then, Dougie and Alex.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41- Talk us through the board, if you like.- Whoa-ho!
0:33:41 > 0:33:43I think the fourth one's QI.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46LAUGHTER
0:33:46 > 0:33:48Just a guess, so.
0:33:51 > 0:33:52Struggling with them.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54I think we only know the top one,
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Never Mind the Buzzcocks.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58- I think we're going to go for that one.- Yes.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01OK. Never Mind the Buzzcocks, say Dougie and Alex.
0:34:01 > 0:34:05So, it's Never Mind the Buzzcocks, and Mock the Week for John and Amy.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:34:17 > 0:34:1928 for Mock the Week. APPLAUSE
0:34:19 > 0:34:23Dougie and Alex, meanwhile, have gone for Never Mind the Buzzcocks.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Let's see if that's right for the top one.
0:34:29 > 0:34:30It's right.
0:34:31 > 0:34:3271. APPLAUSE
0:34:34 > 0:34:35Very well done, John and Amy.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38After three questions, you're through to the final 2-1.
0:34:38 > 0:34:41Yeah, very well played. Do you know the bottom one?
0:34:41 > 0:34:43- No.- Do you not?
0:34:43 > 0:34:45You're the person who's hosted it most, so...
0:34:45 > 0:34:46Oh, it's that!
0:34:46 > 0:34:48- Oh...- Have I got News For You.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50I hadn't even got down to that one, I'm afraid.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53I was still chewing over number two.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55Natural Gem, John Sergeant hosted it for one series,
0:34:55 > 0:34:57and then Sean Lock hosted it.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59It's a pointless answer, it's Argumental.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01Very well done if you said that. Argumental.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Now, what do you think IQ scored?
0:35:04 > 0:35:07- That one, I...- As an anagram, literally by definition of anagram,
0:35:07 > 0:35:08there can only be one answer to that,
0:35:08 > 0:35:10because we've moved around the letters.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12It would surely be in the very, very high 90s.
0:35:12 > 0:35:1498, shall we say?
0:35:14 > 0:35:1698, do you think?
0:35:16 > 0:35:1798.
0:35:17 > 0:35:1890.
0:35:18 > 0:35:19LAUGHTER
0:35:25 > 0:35:27I mean, sometimes I just wonder!
0:35:29 > 0:35:30Thanks very much indeed.
0:35:30 > 0:35:33Well, we have come to the end of our head-to-head round,
0:35:33 > 0:35:35and I'm afraid one of the pairs in front of me
0:35:35 > 0:35:37has to leave us at this point. It is Dougie and Alex.
0:35:37 > 0:35:38Such a good run today,
0:35:38 > 0:35:41and it's been wonderful seeing a little bit more of you today
0:35:41 > 0:35:42than we saw last time -
0:35:42 > 0:35:44I'm afraid you just didn't quite make it through to the final,
0:35:44 > 0:35:46but thank you for coming and playing.
0:35:46 > 0:35:49- Dougie and Alex. Great contestants. - Thank you very much. Thank you.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51APPLAUSE
0:35:51 > 0:35:54But for John and Amy, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:57 > 0:36:00Congratulations, John and Amy, you've seen off all the competition,
0:36:00 > 0:36:03and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:36:11 > 0:36:15At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £2,000.
0:36:15 > 0:36:16APPLAUSE
0:36:18 > 0:36:20Well, very, very well done.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22You've acquitted yourselves incredibly well.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25One performance on Pointless, just one appearance,
0:36:25 > 0:36:26and right the way through.
0:36:26 > 0:36:28Lovely low score after low score.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31Now then, what would you like to see come up in this last round?
0:36:31 > 0:36:33You're very good at sport, aren't you? So I think...
0:36:33 > 0:36:37I'd like the history of Aston Villa or superhero identities.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40We had that last time, both of those last time, sadly.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Amy, anything you'd like to see?
0:36:42 > 0:36:45- No, I'm going to rely on John. - Fair enough.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47Very good. Well, let's see what's up on the board today.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50Let's hope there's something you like the look of.
0:36:50 > 0:36:51Today's selection is...
0:36:59 > 0:37:01- Classical music's out.- Yes.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03Um...
0:37:03 > 0:37:06Star Trek on film, I am concerned I wouldn't know enough detail.
0:37:06 > 0:37:07No, OK.
0:37:08 > 0:37:11- Shall we give her a go?- Yes.- OK.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14- Agatha Christie, please. - Agatha Christie it is.
0:37:14 > 0:37:15- Richard.- Agatha Christie.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17Very best of luck. Three very different questions here.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19We're looking for the title
0:37:19 > 0:37:22of any full-length Miss Marple novel by Agatha Christie,
0:37:22 > 0:37:24any of the titles of a Miss Marple novel.
0:37:24 > 0:37:27We are looking for any character
0:37:27 > 0:37:29from Agatha Christie's play The Mousetrap,
0:37:29 > 0:37:32or any actor in the 2015 BBC adaptation
0:37:32 > 0:37:35of And Then There Were None, according to IMDb.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38So, any Miss Marple novel, characters from The Mousetrap,
0:37:38 > 0:37:40and actors from And Then There Were None.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43- Very best of luck. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45Now, as always, you've got up to one minute
0:37:45 > 0:37:48to come up with three answers, and all you need to win that jackpot
0:37:48 > 0:37:51- is for just one of those answers to be pointless.- OK.- OK, are you ready?
0:37:52 > 0:37:55- Yes.- Yes.- Yes, OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00And Then There Were None, there was Aidan Turner...
0:38:00 > 0:38:02- Poldark.- Yeah. Charles Dance.
0:38:02 > 0:38:06The guy with the really strange face whose name I can never remember.
0:38:06 > 0:38:10- I don't think I should know him... - Agh...
0:38:10 > 0:38:12- OK.- I can't think of anything else.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15Mousetrap characters. We've seen it, I can't recall any name.
0:38:15 > 0:38:18Apart from the inspector - let's get rid of that. Miss Marple novels.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21Is there one that's like The Sign Of The Dead Horse,
0:38:21 > 0:38:23or something like that?
0:38:23 > 0:38:24It's set in a pub.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26There's At Bertram's Hotel...
0:38:26 > 0:38:28At Bertram's Hotel.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30- Is that Miss Marple? - That is Miss Marple.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32Um...
0:38:32 > 0:38:34The Body In The Library is an obvious one.
0:38:34 > 0:38:37- Sorry?- The Body In The Library, is that...- Is that Marple?
0:38:37 > 0:38:40- I thought so. Christmas TV adaptions, always Miss Marple.- OK.
0:38:40 > 0:38:41- Well, shall we go with Marple...? - Yeah.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43The Body In The Library...
0:38:43 > 0:38:45- Bertram.- ..At Bertram's Hotel.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48- There's one that's something like At The Sign...- Ten seconds left.
0:38:48 > 0:38:51- We've always got Charles Dance. - The White Horse, Dead Horse...
0:38:51 > 0:38:52We've got Charles Dance as a third.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54I think he'll be quite high-scoring.
0:38:54 > 0:38:55Three answers there.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00OK, that is your time up, I'm sorry to say.
0:39:00 > 0:39:01That minute's never long enough.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03What are your three answers going to be?
0:39:03 > 0:39:07So, Miss Marple novels, At Bertram's Hotel.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09At Bertram's Hotel.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11The Body In The Library.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13The Body In The Library.
0:39:13 > 0:39:14And then I think we're going to go for
0:39:14 > 0:39:18- cast of And Then There Were None, Charles Dance.- Charles Dance.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:21 > 0:39:23- At Bertram's Hotel. - At Bertram's Hotel goes last.
0:39:23 > 0:39:25- Least likely to be pointless? - I think Charles Dance.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28Charles Dance, and then The Body In The Library goes in the middle.
0:39:28 > 0:39:31- Yeah.- OK, well, let's put those answers up on the board
0:39:31 > 0:39:32in that order, then - and here they are.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34We've got...
0:39:37 > 0:39:39Well, very, very good luck.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42If one of these turns out to be pointless and wins you that jackpot,
0:39:42 > 0:39:46what, I wonder, will you be spending that money on?
0:39:46 > 0:39:48John, you first.
0:39:48 > 0:39:49Um...
0:39:49 > 0:39:53I've been told we will be spending it on the baby room.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56Yes. What are the pressing things you need in the baby room, Amy?
0:39:56 > 0:39:58Carpet would be useful.
0:39:58 > 0:40:02Oh, that is important. That is important, yeah.
0:40:02 > 0:40:03Well, listen, fingers crossed.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06This would be lovely to be able to send you away with the jackpot,
0:40:06 > 0:40:07so let's see what happens.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10Here are your answers. Charles Dance was your first answer,
0:40:10 > 0:40:12in this case we were looking for cast members
0:40:12 > 0:40:13of And Then There Were None.
0:40:13 > 0:40:15If it's pointless, it will win you £2,000.
0:40:15 > 0:40:18Let's see how many of our 100 people said Charles Dance.
0:40:21 > 0:40:22It's right.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26Down goes Charles Dance.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28Through the 40s, into the 30s.
0:40:28 > 0:40:31How far down will he go? Will he go all the way down to zero?
0:40:31 > 0:40:33We're into single figures. Still going down. Still going down!
0:40:33 > 0:40:36Three for Charles Dance, that's very exciting.
0:40:36 > 0:40:37APPLAUSE
0:40:39 > 0:40:43I mean, as a first answer, three is a fabulous score.
0:40:43 > 0:40:45Very good indeed. Annoyingly not pointless, though,
0:40:45 > 0:40:48so we move onto your next answer, which is The Body In The Library.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50In this case we were looking for full-length Miss Marple novels.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53The Body In The Library, if it is pointless, will win you £2,000.
0:40:53 > 0:40:57Let's see how many of our 100 people said The Body In The Library.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03Down it goes. Charles Dance, your first answer,
0:41:03 > 0:41:05took us all the way down to three.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08The Body In The Library now takes us down through the 20s,
0:41:08 > 0:41:09through the teens, into single figures,
0:41:09 > 0:41:12yes, down we go, still going down, passing three...
0:41:12 > 0:41:15You've done it! Very well done indeed!
0:41:15 > 0:41:18APPLAUSE That is how you do it.
0:41:19 > 0:41:21Very well done. Congratulations.
0:41:21 > 0:41:24- Thank you.- Brilliant.- We may even call the baby Alexander now!
0:41:24 > 0:41:25Well, there you are!
0:41:27 > 0:41:30Fabulous. The Body In The Library is a pointless answer,
0:41:30 > 0:41:33which means you go home with that jackpot of £2,000.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35The baby will have nappies!
0:41:38 > 0:41:40Very well played. Great category for you.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43At Bertram's Hotel also a pointless answer, so very well done.
0:41:43 > 0:41:44APPLAUSE
0:41:46 > 0:41:47Nice name for a baby, Bertram!
0:41:49 > 0:41:51That's all I'm saying.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Shall we take a look at some more Miss Marple novels?
0:41:53 > 0:41:55Lots of pointless answers here, actually.
0:41:55 > 0:41:574.50 From Paddington,
0:41:57 > 0:42:00which in my head I call the 4.59 From Paddington,
0:42:00 > 0:42:02so I wouldn't have won the money.
0:42:04 > 0:42:05You could have had A Pocket Full of Rye,
0:42:05 > 0:42:07you could have had Sleeping Murder,
0:42:07 > 0:42:09The Mirror Crack'd From Side To Side was a pointless answer,
0:42:09 > 0:42:11The Moving Finger, and They Do It With Mirrors.
0:42:11 > 0:42:14All of those were pointless answers. Well done if you said any of those.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Character from the Mousetrap - six pointless answers here.
0:42:21 > 0:42:25You could have had Giles Ralston and Mr Paravicini as well.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34Everyone in that was a pointless answer apart from Aidan Turner,
0:42:34 > 0:42:37Charles Dance, Sam Neill, Miranda Richardson, and Douglas Booth.
0:42:37 > 0:42:39Everyone else a pointless answer.
0:42:39 > 0:42:40Very well done if you got any of those at home,
0:42:40 > 0:42:42and congratulations in the studio
0:42:42 > 0:42:43and also very best of luck from us all.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45- Thank you. - Thank you very much, Richard.
0:42:45 > 0:42:49And thank you once again to our winning contestants, John and Amy,
0:42:49 > 0:42:51who go away with today's jackpot of £2,000.
0:42:51 > 0:42:52Very well done.
0:42:52 > 0:42:53APPLAUSE
0:42:55 > 0:42:56Join us next time,
0:42:56 > 0:42:59when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
