0:00:15 > 0:00:18APPLAUSE
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 game where we aim for the obscure,
0:00:28 > 0:00:30and we ignore the obvious.
0:00:30 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37And couple number one.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Hi, my name is Daisy and this is my dad, Dave,
0:00:39 > 0:00:41and we're from Markbeech in Kent.
0:00:41 > 0:00:42Couple number two.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46I'm Harry, this is Henry, and we're school friends also from Kent.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Couple number three.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50I'm Stephen, this is my wife, Daniela, and we're from Yorkshire.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52And, finally, couple number four.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Joe. This is my brother, Lorcan,
0:00:54 > 0:00:56and we're originally from Omagh in Northern Ireland.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58And these are today's contestants.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Thanks very much, all of you - a very warm welcome to Pointless.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03Lovely to have you all here.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05We'll find out a bit more about each of you
0:01:05 > 0:01:06as the show goes along, of course.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11He is a man whose IQ has more digits in it
0:01:11 > 0:01:13than his National Insurance number.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Hiya. Hey, everybody.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Good afternoon.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21- Oh, good afternoon.- Good afternoon.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23I can remember my National Insurance number.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26- I'm rubbish at remembering mine. - That's impressive, isn't it?
0:01:26 > 0:01:27Can you? I don't use it often, but I remember it.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Mine's sort of slightly...
0:01:29 > 0:01:31Mine's almost too easy to remember. I'm a bit suspicious.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34- How good are you at remembering your PIN number?- Yeah, I'm OK at that.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36- Are you? What is it? - LAUGHTER
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Tell you who I met the other day.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40- Tell me.- Er, your mum.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42And she was saying, "You'll never guess..."
0:01:42 > 0:01:44She had an unusual maiden name. She said, "You'll never guess it."
0:01:44 > 0:01:47I thought, "When I see Xander, I'm going to ask him,
0:01:47 > 0:01:49"so next time I see her..." What was her maiden name, your mum?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Do you know, now I can't remember that.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53National Insurance number and PIN numbers...
0:01:53 > 0:01:56My mum's maiden name - that's where I always stumble.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57You don't make this easy for me.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59- Anyway, listen.- Tell me.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00- Four new pairs.- I know.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03We haven't met anybody here yet at all.
0:02:03 > 0:02:04Can you believe it?
0:02:04 > 0:02:06I'm a bit shy.
0:02:06 > 0:02:07- I'm shy as well.- Yeah.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09I'm a little shy. They seem quite welcoming.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- Don't they? - I'm slightly freaked out.
0:02:11 > 0:02:12Obviously Joe and Lorcan are brothers.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15I'm slightly freaked out that Henry and Harry AREN'T brothers.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Something about them that's quite similar.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19- But they're... - The glasses, the glasses!
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- They've got the same glasses. That's what it is.- That must be what it is.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24And John and Amy won the jackpot last time,
0:02:24 > 0:02:26with that Agatha Christie question, which was lovely.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29So we start with an old-fashioned jackpot, four new contestants,
0:02:29 > 0:02:33it's like a whole new beginning for us, which is lovely.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34- It's about time, isn't it?- Mm.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36All of which is a very long-winded way of saying
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Amy and John won the jackpot last time so we going to start off with,
0:02:39 > 0:02:42as Richard says, a nice old-fashioned jackpot of £1,000.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45There it is. Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51OK, there's only one thing you have to remember, and it is this -
0:02:51 > 0:02:54the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:54 > 0:02:55will be eliminated. That's it.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Other than that, best of luck.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Our first category today is...
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Sometimes it's Famous People, today it's just People.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07So good luck with that. Can you all decide in your pairs
0:03:07 > 0:03:09who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:03:09 > 0:03:12And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16OK. And the question concerns...
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Hmm.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Yeah, simply on each board we're going to show you seven clues
0:03:24 > 0:03:26to people who have first names as surnames.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29You just have to give us the most obscure one you can find, please.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Seven on each board, 14 in all to have a go at at home.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34- Very best of luck. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:03:34 > 0:03:35Let's reveal our first board of clues
0:03:35 > 0:03:38to people with first names as surnames, and here it is.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06I'm going to read those all one last time.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31There we are. Daisy, welcome to Pointless, from Kent.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Yes, from Kent.- What keeps you busy in Kent, Daisy?
0:04:34 > 0:04:36I've just moved back there, actually. - I was in
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Exeter Uni for three years,
0:04:38 > 0:04:40so just come back, living with my parents now.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43I have seen more than one car sticker that says,
0:04:43 > 0:04:46"Exeter University is probably the best university in the world."
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Tell me why.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51- The best uni, it's a great campus, lots of things to do.- Mm.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Great... Well, I wouldn't say it's a great nightlife,
0:04:54 > 0:04:57- but you make it fun. - You make what you will of it.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- Exactly.- There you are. Exactly. - Yes.- Will you miss it?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02- I do miss it, yeah. - Have you been back?
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Yeah, I have been back. It's freshers' week at the moment.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07- Wait till it's died down a bit, I think.- Yeah.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- Maybe?- Yeah.- Then go back. - Yeah, and then I'll go back.- OK.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Now, Daisy. Who would you like to go for on our board?
0:05:13 > 0:05:15I'm trying to think of people...
0:05:15 > 0:05:20I think I know the player who beat Novak Djokovic.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23I think I'll go for the Tennessee-born singer
0:05:23 > 0:05:25and hope it's Aretha Franklin.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Aretha Franklin, says Daisy. Let's see if that's right,
0:05:27 > 0:05:30let's see how many of our 100 people went for Franklin.
0:05:32 > 0:05:33It's right.
0:05:38 > 0:05:4027. APPLAUSE
0:05:40 > 0:05:4127 for Aretha Franklin.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46She performed at inaugurations of three separate presidents,
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Aretha Franklin - Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53Also the first woman to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56- 1987.- Really? Took that long? - The first woman, yeah.
0:05:56 > 0:05:57- Isn't that amazing?- Blimey.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02- Henry. Henry, welcome.- Thank you.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Did you buy the shirts together?
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Um, I actually saw them by myself the other day.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10And I just had a moment where it was like, "We just can't..."
0:06:10 > 0:06:12"I need these for me and Harry."
0:06:12 > 0:06:14- For the Pointless...? - So we just went for it, yeah.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17The nice thing is, they're clearly not strobing on television,
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Cos sometimes shirts have to be tested on camera,
0:06:19 > 0:06:21to make sure they don't go... HE IMITATES CRACKLING
0:06:21 > 0:06:23..and they're not. I mean, they are to my brain,
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- but they're not to the... - That's the intention.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Yeah. They are beautiful!
0:06:27 > 0:06:29What is that, silk?
0:06:29 > 0:06:31- It certainly feels like silk.- Oh!
0:06:31 > 0:06:33LAUGHTER
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Now, Henry. What do you do?
0:06:35 > 0:06:37I work for a publishers in Kent,
0:06:37 > 0:06:41and we do, like, career guides and things like that.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44And we've recently gone into educational books,
0:06:44 > 0:06:48so, like, I've been working on some, like, revision guides
0:06:48 > 0:06:49and textbooks and things like that.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Oh, right, so sort of York Notes-type things.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- Yeah.- Yeah. - But much better, obviously.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Much better! Other notes are available, clearly.
0:06:58 > 0:06:59LAUGHTER
0:06:59 > 0:07:00Henry, who are these famous people?
0:07:00 > 0:07:04Their surnames are all like first names.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07I'm going to have to go with the top one,
0:07:07 > 0:07:09which is George Lucas.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11OK. George Lucas.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13George Lucas, says Henry.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Let's see how many of our 100 people went for George Lucas.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20It's right.
0:07:25 > 0:07:2616.
0:07:26 > 0:07:27APPLAUSE
0:07:28 > 0:07:3016 for George Lucas.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Yeah, George Lucas says he based the character of Han Solo
0:07:34 > 0:07:36on Francis Ford Coppola.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Imagine if you'd had Han Solo based on you.
0:07:39 > 0:07:40- That's quite cool. - That is quite cool.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43He has a very high view of Francis Ford Coppola. That's good.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:07:45 > 0:07:46Stephen, welcome.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Here from Yorkshire. Whereabouts in Yorkshire are you?
0:07:49 > 0:07:50Live in Harrogate.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Ah! But Harrogate's beautiful!
0:07:52 > 0:07:54- It's very nice, yes. - Why, it's beautiful!- Yeah.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56What do you do? What keeps you busy in Harrogate?
0:07:56 > 0:07:58I'm a school workshop provider.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01I see. Is that a term-time thing? Does that mean you get holidays off?
0:08:01 > 0:08:05- Yes.- Oh, that's nice!- Yeah. - Very nice indeed.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08And what sort of things do you do as a workshop provider?
0:08:08 > 0:08:10I've written a book about a recycled mermaid,
0:08:10 > 0:08:14and I go into schools and read the book and say poems,
0:08:14 > 0:08:16and give writing tips.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19- So what's the book called? - Madge The Mermaid.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20So there'll be kids out there
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- who are reading Madge The Mermaid at the moment?- Yeah.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26It's based on the Perranporth Mermaid in Cornwall -
0:08:26 > 0:08:28I saw her, she's made from washed-up materials.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31As soon as I saw her, I thought, "I'm going to write a book."
0:08:31 > 0:08:32I was a journalist at the time.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35There we are. So it's become a sort of...
0:08:35 > 0:08:38- Madge The Mermaid, an icon of recycling?- Yes.- Fantastic.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Now, Stephen.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42What about these people with first names as second names?
0:08:42 > 0:08:43I only know a couple of them.
0:08:43 > 0:08:48I think the one I think is the lowest is Michael Douglas,
0:08:48 > 0:08:49who married Catherine Zeta-Jones.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Michael Douglas, says Stephen. Let's see if it's right,
0:08:52 > 0:08:54let's see how many of our 100 people went with it.
0:08:59 > 0:09:0164 for Michael Douglas.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04APPLAUSE
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Yeah, they've got the same birthday,
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, September the 25th.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11But she was born just after the moon landings,
0:09:11 > 0:09:13and he was born just before the end of the Second World War.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- LAUGHTER - It's true.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- Just before the discovery of the moon.- Yeah.
0:09:18 > 0:09:19Thank you. Joe, welcome.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22You said originally from Omagh - where are you from now?
0:09:22 > 0:09:25- Well, I live in Enniskillen, which is just about...- Oh, I see.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28- ..25 miles down the road, so not too far away.- Not too far away.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30- And what do you do, Joe? - I'm a dentist, Xander.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33You are... Very timely, actually. Cos I'm...
0:09:33 > 0:09:34HE MUMBLES
0:09:34 > 0:09:37- No, I'll show you later. - I'm off duty, though, so I...
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Off-duty. Now, so how long have you been a dentist?
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- About 18 years, now. - What drew you to dentistry, Joe?
0:09:43 > 0:09:45You know, I'm not going to say the money, cos it's not!
0:09:45 > 0:09:47LAUGHTER
0:09:47 > 0:09:50- The hours.- The hours? And a love of teeth.- And a love...
0:09:50 > 0:09:53- Obviously, the love of teeth. - Just like the smell of mint.
0:09:53 > 0:09:54- Simple as that.- Yeah, yeah.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Joe, what would you like to go for on this board?
0:09:56 > 0:09:57You're the last person to have it.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00- You can fill in all those blanks for us, if you like.- Yeah.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02Well, I knew the other three.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04That's Andy Murray, is the Novak Djokovic one.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08I think it's Grace Kelly, the Princess of Monaco.
0:10:08 > 0:10:09And the President...
0:10:09 > 0:10:12The only one I can think of is Ulysses S Grant.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14"Played Jett Rink in the film Giant..."
0:10:14 > 0:10:18I'd be guessing if I said John Wayne. I don't think it is.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20- I think I'll go Grace Kelly. - Grace Kelly, says Joe.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Grace Kelly.
0:10:25 > 0:10:26It's right.
0:10:29 > 0:10:3148 for Grace Kelly.
0:10:31 > 0:10:32APPLAUSE
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Before she could marry Prince Rainier,
0:10:36 > 0:10:40her family had to provide a 2 million dowry to Prince Rainier.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Seems a bit much.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45- Really?!- Mm-hm.- What century did they get married in?!
0:10:45 > 0:10:48- The 20th.- That's extraordinary. Well, I know, but...
0:10:48 > 0:10:50- Wow!- Yes.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51She must have loved him.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- I guess.- Very, very much.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55- I guess.- 2 million much.
0:10:55 > 0:10:56Yeah, there you go. That is a lot.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58- That's a lot.- That is a lot of love.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Now, it's a very good guess, John Wayne for Giant,
0:11:01 > 0:11:03but it's not John Wayne.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07It's one of his very few films, actually, it's James Dean.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09Would've scored you 10 points.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11You're right about Andy Murray.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Beat Novak Djokovic in 2013. Would have scored you 30.
0:11:14 > 0:11:15Now, this...
0:11:15 > 0:11:19There's all sorts of presidents with first names as surnames,
0:11:19 > 0:11:22so Grant was a very good one, Lincoln of course is one.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24But this is Zachary Taylor.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27- Ah.- Very well done if you said that, cos it's a pointless answer.
0:11:27 > 0:11:28- Really tough one. - That is good, yeah.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31Thank you, Richard. We are halfway through the round.
0:11:31 > 0:11:32Let's take a quick look at those scores.
0:11:32 > 0:11:3516, how do you like that, Henry? The best score of the pass.
0:11:35 > 0:11:36Very well done indeed.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Then we come up to 27, where we find Daisy and Dave,
0:11:38 > 0:11:41then up to 48, where we find Joe and Lorcan.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43And then 64 is where we find Stephen and Daniela.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46So, Daniela, we need a low-scoring answer from you in the next pass.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49Good luck with that. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Could the second players please step up to the podium?
0:11:55 > 0:11:57OK, we're going to put seven more clues up on the board.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00And here they are. We have got...
0:12:30 > 0:12:32I'm going to read those all one last time.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01There we are. Lorcan, welcome.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03Good to have you here. Lorcan, what do you do?
0:13:03 > 0:13:04I'm an optometrist, Xander.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07You've got teeth and eyes, all dealt with in one family.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09The whole shooting match.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10Ah, what about that?
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Who's the older of the pair of you?
0:13:12 > 0:13:14I am, by two years.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17And, Joe, you weren't tempted to go into eyes at all?
0:13:17 > 0:13:18- Not particularly, no.- Ah.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21- Not really. - Much cleaner organ, though.
0:13:21 > 0:13:22- Much cleaner.- Yeah.- I suppose so.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24In fact, self-cleansing.
0:13:24 > 0:13:25Self cleansing, exactly.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Also, people don't breathe through their eyes,
0:13:28 > 0:13:30which is, let's face it, an advantage.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32Lorcan, what are your interests?
0:13:32 > 0:13:36Yeah, I love music, I love movies, I love sport.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40And I would be a big football fan,
0:13:40 > 0:13:42I do a bit of cycling.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44OK, stop. I'm going to stop you right there.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47That is enough hobbies to be going on with for now.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Now, Lorcan. You're on 48, you're not the high scorers -
0:13:50 > 0:13:54Stephen and Daniela are that - 15 is your target at this stage.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57I'd like to have a bit more time on all of those,
0:13:57 > 0:13:59cos I'm sure some of those are going to pop into my head,
0:13:59 > 0:14:02like on the last board, but as I don't,
0:14:02 > 0:14:05I think I'm going to have to go for
0:14:05 > 0:14:10"Played Madison the mermaid in the 1984 film Splash,"
0:14:10 > 0:14:12and that was Daryl Hannah.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Daryl Hannah, says Lorcan. Here is your red line.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17If you can get below this red line with Daryl Hannah,
0:14:17 > 0:14:19you are through to Round Two.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21How many of our 100 people said Daryl Hannah?
0:14:23 > 0:14:24It's right.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Look at that, Lorcan. I think that's probably good enough.
0:14:31 > 0:14:3327, taking your total up to 75.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Good work, Lorcan.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38- We've talked about mermaids a lot on today's show.- Oh, we have.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Sometimes we don't talk about them at all on the show.
0:14:41 > 0:14:42- Now we've done it twice. - I know, I know.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45We've had Madge, we've had Splash. We've got... Amazing.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Thank you very much, Richard.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Daniela, welcome to Pointless.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52Here from Harrogate. What keeps you busy in Harrogate?
0:14:52 > 0:14:57Well, I've been a teacher of English as a foreign language, er...
0:14:58 > 0:15:00..for 15 years.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02So I decided to take a break.
0:15:04 > 0:15:11And I like visiting the antiques shops in Harrogate.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14How regularly do the antiques change?
0:15:14 > 0:15:16If you're a regular visitor to the antiques shop,
0:15:16 > 0:15:18do you find you go back a lot and think, "It's the same old stuff!"
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Or in Harrogate presumably it just goes "ch-ch-ch-ch!"
0:15:21 > 0:15:22No, they do change,
0:15:22 > 0:15:28- but obviously the centres have different items.- Yes, I see.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32Whereas the little stores,
0:15:32 > 0:15:33they don't change very often.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37It's just nice to see what's around,
0:15:37 > 0:15:41and how old things are and how much they cost, etc.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43It's the happiest place in Britain, Harrogate.
0:15:43 > 0:15:47- It is, yeah.- So they say. - Yeah, so they say.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49So 64 is your score.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51You are aiming to score 10 or less at this stage, Daniela,
0:15:51 > 0:15:55- if you possibly can. - Yes, unfortunately not.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58The one I'll go for is
0:15:58 > 0:16:02"Played the British Prime Minister in Love Actually" -
0:16:02 > 0:16:04- Hugh Grant. - Hugh Grant, says Daniela.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07There is your red line. Quite low. Let's see if that's right,
0:16:07 > 0:16:10let's see how many of our 100 people went for Hugh Grant.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14It's right.
0:16:18 > 0:16:1942. APPLAUSE
0:16:19 > 0:16:2142, taking your total up to 106.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27Yeah, probably most famous for being a Fulham fan, Hugh Grant.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29- Is he really a Fulham fan?- Yeah.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30- Oh, that's nice. - It's nice, isn't it?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Do you bump into him at the Cottage ever?
0:16:32 > 0:16:34I haven't. He has not been there for a while,
0:16:34 > 0:16:36or I haven't seen him if he has been there.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38- Thank you. Harry, welcome.- Hi.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40Well, whose idea was it to come on the show?
0:16:40 > 0:16:44Henry did the costumes - who was the driving force behind it?
0:16:44 > 0:16:46I'd say it was a collaborative effort.
0:16:46 > 0:16:47We lived together for a while,
0:16:47 > 0:16:50and watching Pointless became a bit of a tradition,
0:16:50 > 0:16:52so we thought, "Why not give it a try?"
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Very good indeed. Now, Harry, what do you do?
0:16:54 > 0:16:56I have recently graduated.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59And I now work for a property-management company
0:16:59 > 0:17:02based in London. We look after properties for landlords
0:17:02 > 0:17:04and kind of run them like hotels.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06- Through the internet. - Oh, that sounds nice.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Yeah, it's good fun, I get out and about a lot.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Riding tubes and checking people in.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13- And these are residential properties?- Yeah.
0:17:13 > 0:17:14So basically people saying,
0:17:14 > 0:17:16"Oh, Harry, the boiler's not working again"?
0:17:16 > 0:17:20That's not directly my job but I will answer the phone and say,
0:17:20 > 0:17:22"That's horrible, sorry to hear that."
0:17:22 > 0:17:23You put them straight on to the...
0:17:23 > 0:17:26- Put you in touch with maintenance, yes.- Good stuff.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27So, Harry, there you are.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Brilliant low score from Henry in the first pass,
0:17:29 > 0:17:32- which means 89 is your target.- OK.
0:17:32 > 0:17:36That's good that Henry did so well, cos I'm not very certain on these.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39I'm going to go for the retired Bulls basketball player,
0:17:39 > 0:17:42and hope that because of Air Jordans, it's Michael Jordan.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Michael Jordan, says Harry.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46Here's your red line, lovely and high.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Let's hope Michael Jordan is right,
0:17:48 > 0:17:50let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53It's right.
0:17:53 > 0:17:54And you're through.
0:17:59 > 0:18:0312. Very strong indeed. APPLAUSE
0:18:03 > 0:18:05Takes your total up to 28.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Yeah, retired three times in all, Michael Jordan.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11And, 2014, Forbes said he is officially a billionaire.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13That's on account of all the gold clocks he'd been given,
0:18:13 > 0:18:15- I should think.- Yes, exactly. - LAUGHTER
0:18:15 > 0:18:18Thank you very much. Now, Dave. Welcome.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Good to have you here, Dave. What do you do?
0:18:20 > 0:18:23I do the business development for an aerospace company.
0:18:23 > 0:18:24Now that sounds interesting.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27- Do you do this in the British Isles? - Yes, yes.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29Or do you travel all over the world?
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Mainly in the UK, but a bit in Europe, as well.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Interesting. And what are your hobbies outside that world?
0:18:35 > 0:18:38- Play a bit of golf.- Mm-hm.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Follow Fulham, as well.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43- Do you?- Yep.- Come on, you Whites. - Oh, yes.
0:18:43 > 0:18:44LAUGHTER
0:18:44 > 0:18:46- That's nice.- That is nice.
0:18:46 > 0:18:47I like them on podium one.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Yes, I thought you might. I thought you might.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51Now, Dave. There you are, 27.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53Your target's 78. 78 or less, you're through.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57Do you want to talk us through the board, fill in the names?
0:18:57 > 0:19:00The top one, I believe, will be Dean Martin.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04And the UK Prime Minister, Harold Wilson?
0:19:04 > 0:19:06But I'll go for Dean Martin.
0:19:06 > 0:19:07Dean Martin, says Dave.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09Let's see how many of our 100 people said Dean Martin.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Here is your red line - again, nice and high.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17You're through. Very well done.
0:19:19 > 0:19:2237, taking your total up to 64. APPLAUSE
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Yeah, that was Dean Martin's only ever UK number one.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- Was it really?- Yeah. He had more famous songs, I think,
0:19:29 > 0:19:30but that's the only UK number one he had.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33You're right about Harold Wilson, UK Prime Minister.
0:19:35 > 0:19:36That would have scored you 28 points,
0:19:36 > 0:19:38would have been a slightly better answer.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Do you remember who played Doc Brown in Back To The Future?
0:19:41 > 0:19:43- He was also in Taxi. - What was his name? Yes. Brilliant.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46- Christopher Lloyd. - Christopher Lloyd. Yes, thank you.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47He would have scored you 16.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51And the other one, more famous for another role now.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54- Daniel Craig. - Daniel Craig is absolutely right.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56And it's the best answer on the board, 7 points,
0:19:56 > 0:19:58- so well done if you said that. - Thank you very much.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00We are at the end of our first round.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02And we have to say goodbye to one of our pairs,
0:20:02 > 0:20:04and I'm very sorry to say the pair in question is Stephen and Daniela,
0:20:04 > 0:20:07with your high score of 106. We will see you again next time,
0:20:07 > 0:20:09and I'm sure you'll go much, much further.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11In the meantime, thank you very much indeed, Stephen and Daniela.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14APPLAUSE
0:20:14 > 0:20:17But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24And so suddenly we are down to three pairs -
0:20:24 > 0:20:26look at that. Oh, it's a brutal game, this.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28At the end of this round, we'll just be down to two pairs -
0:20:28 > 0:20:30can you believe it? Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...
0:20:36 > 0:20:37It's a Words round.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Can you all decide who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49OK. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:20:56 > 0:20:57..as they could.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59- U-I-T, Richard.- Yeah, we're looking for any word
0:20:59 > 0:21:02which has its own entry in the British and World English section
0:21:02 > 0:21:05of OxfordDictionaries.com please, that ends U-I-T.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08As always, no hyphenated words and no proper nouns.
0:21:08 > 0:21:09Very best of luck.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12- It's an interesting one. - It is an interesting one.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14- Yeah.- It is an interesting one.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17- Got your thinking head. - Yes, thank you.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Thank you. Dave.
0:21:19 > 0:21:20Um...
0:21:21 > 0:21:24- Let's try biscuit. - BARELY-AUDIBLE MURMURING
0:21:24 > 0:21:25That's earnt you a... HE INHALES SHARPLY
0:21:25 > 0:21:27..from three people. LAUGHTER
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Biscuit. Let's see how many of our 100 people said it. Biscuit.
0:21:39 > 0:21:4126 for biscuit.
0:21:41 > 0:21:42APPLAUSE
0:21:44 > 0:21:45Yeah, biscuit.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47- It means biscuit.- Mm. Oh, right.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Harry.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52HE SIGHS
0:21:52 > 0:21:54I can't think of as many as I'd like to.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57- Yes, I know what you mean. - It's an odd suffix.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00I'm going to just go for conduit.
0:22:00 > 0:22:01- Conduit.- Conduit.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Let's see how many of our 100 people went for conduit.
0:22:11 > 0:22:1347 for conduit.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15APPLAUSE
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Yeah, a channel for conveying water
0:22:18 > 0:22:21and obviously has come to mean sort of a go-between -
0:22:21 > 0:22:23all sorts of different ways of using conduit.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Thank you very much indeed.
0:22:25 > 0:22:26Lorcan.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30I have one in my head that's...
0:22:30 > 0:22:32I think, if it's right, could be low enough,
0:22:32 > 0:22:34and another one that's safe.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Which to go for?
0:22:37 > 0:22:39I think I'm going to play it safe,
0:22:39 > 0:22:42and I'm going to go for pursuit.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Pursuit, says Lorcan.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Let's see how many of our 100 people said pursuit.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59APPLAUSE
0:22:59 > 0:23:0113. Very well done.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Lowest score of the round so far.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06Yes, as in pursuing someone, pursuit.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08As in, "I was in pursuit of a biscuit."
0:23:08 > 0:23:10LAUGHTER
0:23:10 > 0:23:13"I couldn't find one - in the end, I had to employ a conduit...
0:23:15 > 0:23:18"..whose pursuit of a biscuit paid off."
0:23:18 > 0:23:20- And that's all I have to say about that.- Thank you very much.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22We're halfway through the round, let's look at those scores.
0:23:22 > 0:23:2513, the best score of that pass, Lorcan, very well done indeed.
0:23:25 > 0:23:26Lorcan and Joe looking very strong.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29Then up to 26, where we find Dave and Daisy.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31Then up to 47, where we find Harry and Henry.
0:23:31 > 0:23:32Henry, you know what we need -
0:23:32 > 0:23:35we need a lovely low score. We're going to come back down the line.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:23:42 > 0:23:45OK. Joe, remember, words ending U-I-T.
0:23:45 > 0:23:46JOE SIGHS
0:23:46 > 0:23:49Well, I've got one I think is right.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52And I have another one that... I don't think I'll gamble on it.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54I'm going to say circuit.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Circuit. Circuit, says Joe.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58Here is your red line. Get below that with circuit,
0:23:58 > 0:24:00you are into the next round for sure.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Let's see how many of our 100 people said circuit.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Very well done indeed.
0:24:11 > 0:24:12That gets you through with room to spare.
0:24:12 > 0:24:148. APPLAUSE
0:24:14 > 0:24:15Takes your total up to 21.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20And that means circuit, essentially.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23But in cycling, a pursuit is done on a circuit.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Mm.
0:24:25 > 0:24:26That's a pursuit circuit.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29- You're still thinking of a word! - Oh, yeah, yeah, absolutely.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31I've got one, it's just a bit... HE IMITATES CREAKING
0:24:31 > 0:24:34- It's a bit... You know.- Oh, really? - Yeah.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36I'm not sure if it's one or two words, to be honest, but I'm...
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- My hunch is...- OK, I've guessed one for you, anyway.
0:24:39 > 0:24:40Oh, that's nice, thank you.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43So then, Henry.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45I've got one, I think.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47And I think it's going to count, as well, so... Hopefully.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49- I do hope it does.- Yeah.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51I'm going to say dragon fruit.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57That was the one I wasn't sure if it was one or two words.
0:24:57 > 0:24:58Yeah, I've gone for it.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00- Look at that.- Yeah.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02That's... You didn't have that for me, did you?
0:25:02 > 0:25:04- Hm?- Did you have a dragon fruit for me?
0:25:04 > 0:25:06- No, I don't have a dragon fruit for you.- That's a shame.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Right, yes, Henry. Dragon fruit.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12Can I just say, regardless of what happens on the tower,
0:25:12 > 0:25:14that is an exceptional answer.
0:25:14 > 0:25:15LAUGHTER
0:25:15 > 0:25:19- That's all I need. - That is...brilliant.
0:25:19 > 0:25:20Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23There's no red line, I'm afraid, as you're the high scorers.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26But let's see how far down the column we get with dragon fruit.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Ah...
0:25:30 > 0:25:31Oh, Henry.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34- That's disappointing. - That is disappointing.
0:25:34 > 0:25:35I tell you what's really unfair about that
0:25:35 > 0:25:38is you get 100 points for it, I now get to choose something else.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40LAUGHTER It's really unfair.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42147 is your total there.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Listen, I'm always supportive of contestants
0:25:44 > 0:25:45when they get the wrong answer,
0:25:45 > 0:25:47but that's a terrible answer, what are you thinking?!
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Honestly, I barely...
0:25:49 > 0:25:51I can't remember hearing a worse answer than that.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Who in their right minds...?
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Listen, I guess you're young, so that's fine.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57- LAUGHING:- But I would think anyone over, say, 25
0:25:57 > 0:25:59who thinks that dragon fruit is one word...
0:25:59 > 0:26:00HE LAUGHS
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Can you imagine?! Can you imagine?
0:26:02 > 0:26:04It's dragon fruit. It would be two words.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06- Dragon fruit.- Yeah.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09You would have to be an absolute nincompoop
0:26:09 > 0:26:11- to imagine that that was one word... - Daisy!
0:26:11 > 0:26:12LAUGHTER
0:26:12 > 0:26:16- Daisy. Listen, you can have some fun here.- Yeah.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19You can make any kind of portmanteau word up you like - you're through.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Yeah, I've been trying to have a think.
0:26:21 > 0:26:22It's quite a difficult one.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25I was thinking about maybe something like unquit,
0:26:25 > 0:26:27or I don't know if you can recircuit something,
0:26:27 > 0:26:31but I think what I'm going to go for is Inuit.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35Inuit. Inuit, says Daisy.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37Well, let's see how many of our 100 people said Inuit.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40There is no red line for you, cos you're already through.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49- Oh.- Ah. There might be a proper-noun issue here.
0:26:49 > 0:26:50But that, I'm afraid,
0:26:50 > 0:26:52for some reason is incorrect.
0:26:52 > 0:26:53Doesn't matter, you're through anyway.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55Scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 126.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58Yeah, proper noun, I'm afraid, but you're along the right lines,
0:26:58 > 0:27:00especially something like recircuit. Recircuit not a word.
0:27:00 > 0:27:04Repursuit is a word, funnily enough, and that was a pointless answer.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07But no unquit and no recircuit, but those are the words we like.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Have you got another answer?
0:27:09 > 0:27:10Squit.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12- Excuse me?- Squit. LAUGHTER
0:27:12 > 0:27:13Squit?
0:27:13 > 0:27:15- Two points.- Oh, well, that's all right.- So well done.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Although you got 100 points...
0:27:17 > 0:27:18Obviously my first answer was dragon fruit.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20..cos you went for Dragon fruit.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22I was thinking along similar lines to you.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24My prediction for you was breadfruit.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27- Oh, that's nice.- That's what I thought you were going to go for.
0:27:27 > 0:27:28- Yes, that is good.- Thank you.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30I had the answers in front of me, to be fair,
0:27:30 > 0:27:31so it's not all my own work.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33One point, that would have scored you.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35- Shall we take a look at some pointless answers?- Yes.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37There's a few of them up here.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41Catsuit is a pointless answer. That would've been a nice one.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43Missuit, simply not to suit somebody.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46Multicircuit is a pointless answer - would've been a nice one.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51Reduit, which is like a redoubt - it's like a fortress, essentially.
0:27:51 > 0:27:52There's repursuit.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Sleepsuit a pointless answer as well, all one word.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00Spacesuit, superfruit, and sweatsuit also a pointless answer.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03- Oh, sweatsuit.- Shall we take a look at the top three?- Please.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06The ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08Fruit would've scored you 44.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10Conduit, very high up, isn't it? 47.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12It sort of comes straight to your mind, though, when you see U-I-T.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14- It does, doesn't it? - For some reason.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17And right at the top, suit with 67.
0:28:17 > 0:28:18Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20So we are at the end of our second round.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22I'm afraid to say the pair we have to say goodbye to,
0:28:22 > 0:28:24with their high score of 147, Henry and Harry,
0:28:24 > 0:28:28I'm afraid it is you. Very strong start in Round One.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30Oh, it's annoying, isn't it?
0:28:30 > 0:28:32When you see those pointless answers,
0:28:32 > 0:28:34you think, of course, "Oh, of course! Of course!"
0:28:34 > 0:28:36I'm sorry, though. Dragon fruit. Ah...
0:28:36 > 0:28:38Anyway, we'll see you again next time.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40I'm sure you'll go much further.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42In the meantime, thanks very much, Henry and Harry.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45APPLAUSE
0:28:45 > 0:28:48But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:28:52 > 0:28:55Congratulations, Joe and Lorcan, Daisy and Dave,
0:28:55 > 0:28:57you are now one step closer to the final
0:28:57 > 0:28:59and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:28:59 > 0:29:01which currently still stands at £1,000.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03But the good news is we are here in the head-to-head,
0:29:03 > 0:29:05where all sorts of things happen.
0:29:05 > 0:29:08You're allowed to chat before you give your answers, which is nice,
0:29:08 > 0:29:09and the first pair to win two questions
0:29:09 > 0:29:12will go through to that final.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14Best of luck to both pairs, let's play the head-to-head.
0:29:20 > 0:29:21Here is your first question.
0:29:21 > 0:29:24And your first question concerns...
0:29:26 > 0:29:29- Richard.- Yep, we're going to show you five items of clothing now
0:29:29 > 0:29:31which don't tend to be worn so much any more.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33We just need you to tell us what they are, please.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36We're going to give you the first and last letters of each word.
0:29:36 > 0:29:38Thank you very much indeed.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40Let's reveal our five items of Historical Fashion,
0:29:40 > 0:29:41and here they are.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14There we are.
0:30:14 > 0:30:15Five items of Historical Fashion.
0:30:15 > 0:30:18Joe and Lorcan, you are our low-scorers, so you will go first.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20THEY CONFER QUIETLY
0:30:22 > 0:30:24Er, this is not a good round for us.
0:30:24 > 0:30:28We're not up on our Historical Fashion at all.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31We're probably just going to have to go cravat, E.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33OK, E, cravat, say Joe and Lorcan.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36Now, Daisy and Dave,
0:30:36 > 0:30:39do you want to talk us through all these beautiful items?
0:30:39 > 0:30:42- DAISY:- That was the only that one we knew.
0:30:42 > 0:30:43THEY LAUGH
0:30:43 > 0:30:45What are you thinking?
0:30:45 > 0:30:47We're not sure of any of the answers, to be honest.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50We'll go A and say reef.
0:30:50 > 0:30:51Reef?
0:30:51 > 0:30:54So we have cravat and we have...
0:30:54 > 0:30:57You thought cravat was a bad answer! LAUGHTER
0:30:57 > 0:30:59Cravat and reef.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01Says the man who just said dragon fruit!
0:31:01 > 0:31:03LAUGHTER
0:31:03 > 0:31:06So, Joe and Lorcan. E, cravat.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:31:15 > 0:31:1755 for cravat.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22Daisy and Dave have gone for reef...
0:31:23 > 0:31:24..for A, let's see if that's right.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26Let's see how many of our 100 people said reef.
0:31:30 > 0:31:31Bad luck.
0:31:31 > 0:31:35Very well done, Joe and Lorcan. After one question, you are up 1-0.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37A is actually the biggest scorer of all -
0:31:37 > 0:31:38would have beaten cravat, even,
0:31:38 > 0:31:41- A is a...?- Ruff.- A ruff, yeah.
0:31:41 > 0:31:43That would've scored you 68 points.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46- B?- Doublet.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49It is a doublet, doublet and hose.
0:31:49 > 0:31:50That would've scored you 25.
0:31:52 > 0:31:53Do you know C?
0:31:53 > 0:31:54That one I can't think of.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57- It's crinoline.- Oh, it's crinoline. Oh, I did know that.
0:31:57 > 0:31:58But I didn't KNOW it.
0:31:58 > 0:31:59Would've scored you 24.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04- And D. - A bustle.- You will have heard of it.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06It's a bustle, yeah, absolutely right.
0:32:06 > 0:32:07And that would've scored 17.
0:32:07 > 0:32:09I know we say none of these are worn any more,
0:32:09 > 0:32:11but if you ever go down to Shoreditch,
0:32:11 > 0:32:13literally everyone's wearing this stuff.
0:32:13 > 0:32:15- Some people are wearing all of them at once.- Yeah, yeah.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17If you don't have a ruff and a bustle in Shoreditch,
0:32:17 > 0:32:19- they send you home.- Mm.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22Thank you very much indeed. Here comes your second question.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24Daisy and Dave, you get to answer it first,
0:32:24 > 0:32:27but remember you've got to win it to stay in the game, so good luck.
0:32:27 > 0:32:29Our second question today is all about...
0:32:31 > 0:32:34- Richard.- Yep, five clues now to facts about The Number 13.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37- It can't be unlucky for both teams, right?- Can't be.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40Thank you. OK, let's reveal our five clues about The Number 13.
0:32:40 > 0:32:41And they are...
0:33:03 > 0:33:04I'm going to read those all again.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27Daisy and Dave.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29- DAVE:- Hmm. - HE LAUGHS
0:33:29 > 0:33:31THEY CONFER QUIETLY
0:33:31 > 0:33:34Um, yeah, we don't know many.
0:33:34 > 0:33:38We'll go for the third one, and say aluminium.
0:33:38 > 0:33:41Aluminium, say Daisy and Dave.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43Now then, Joe and Lorcan, it's over to you.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Talk us through that board if you can.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47I know the Roman numerals.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49The British rock band, I think we know, as well.
0:33:49 > 0:33:50Think it's Blur.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54Royal London residence, wouldn't entirely be sure about that.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57And also the 1907 novel, Friday, The Thirteenth,
0:33:57 > 0:34:00I wouldn't be too sure of that one, either.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02Yeah, I think we're going to go with Blur.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05- Blur for the second one. - OK, Blur, the British rock band.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07So we have aluminium and we have Blur.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09Daisy and Dave went for aluminium.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15It's right.
0:34:16 > 0:34:1862 for aluminium.
0:34:21 > 0:34:24Joe and Lorcan, meanwhile, have gone for Blur.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.
0:34:29 > 0:34:30It's right.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34And it wins you the point. Very well done indeed.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36And down Blur goes, passing 13 to 8.
0:34:38 > 0:34:40And it means, Joe and Lorcan, that after only two questions,
0:34:40 > 0:34:43you are straight through to the final, 2-0. Very well done.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Let's fill these in, shall we?
0:34:45 > 0:34:47Yeah, the Roman numerals representing number 13
0:34:47 > 0:34:48is the biggest scorer up there.
0:34:48 > 0:34:52Of course, it's XIII, would have scored 81.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54The Royal London residence...
0:34:54 > 0:34:57- Buckingham Palace. - It is Buckingham Palace, yep.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59That would've scored 32. And the author?
0:34:59 > 0:35:02It's Thomas W Lawson and it's a pointless answer,
0:35:02 > 0:35:04so terrific work if you got that.
0:35:04 > 0:35:05Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07Well, we are at the end of our head-to-head round,
0:35:07 > 0:35:10and I'm afraid the pair we have to say goodbye to are Daisy and Dave.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Good news really, though, cos it means we see you again next time.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15If you'd gone through to the final, that would've just...
0:35:15 > 0:35:17Ah, that would've just been it. All over in one show.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19But, no, we'll see you next time
0:35:19 > 0:35:21and I'm sure you'll do just as well, if not better.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23But thanks very much, meantime. Daisy and Dave.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25- APPLAUSE - Cheers.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28But for Joe and Lorcan, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34Congratulations, Joe and Lorcan,
0:35:34 > 0:35:37you have fought off all the competition
0:35:37 > 0:35:40and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy, so very well done.
0:35:40 > 0:35:41Thank you.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:48 > 0:35:52and, at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £1,000.
0:35:52 > 0:35:53There it is.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56It's good news for the eyes and teeth of Northern Ireland.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58But it is... It's bad news for us
0:35:58 > 0:36:01because it means you're only on the show for one appearance, that's it.
0:36:01 > 0:36:03It's been lovely having you on - what a performance.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05- Really, really strong.- Thank you.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07Consistent low scores from you, so very well done, 2-0.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10Any particular things you'd love to see come up this round?
0:36:10 > 0:36:14- Film would be good for us. - Mm-hm.- And music.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17- Yeah, music.- And sport.- Movies, sport, yeah.- Movies mostly, I think.
0:36:17 > 0:36:18Yeah. OK, well, fingers crossed.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21Let's hope there's something you like the look of on today's board.
0:36:21 > 0:36:22It reads like this. We have got...
0:36:32 > 0:36:35I don't know. We would have to - we'd have to go for Fifa World Cup,
0:36:35 > 0:36:37- cos at least you have a chance, as well.- Right.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40- We'll have to go for Fifa World Cup. - Yeah.- Fifa World Cup it is. Richard.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Good to see a dentist avoiding Sugar there.
0:36:42 > 0:36:43- Well done. - LAUGHTER
0:36:43 > 0:36:44Yeah, we're looking for any
0:36:44 > 0:36:47of the following three things, please. Best of luck with these.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50We're looking for any team who has made the semifinal
0:36:50 > 0:36:54in a men's football World Cup from 1966 through to 2014, please.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56So any nation been represented in the semifinals,
0:36:56 > 0:36:59as they were named at the time of the semifinal.
0:36:59 > 0:37:01Any winners of the Golden Ball - which is the best player -
0:37:01 > 0:37:05at any World Cup. That's from 1982 to 2014.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07Or any winners of the Best Young Player of a World Cup
0:37:07 > 0:37:10and that's '66 to 2014 again.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13So the teams in the semifinals and the winners of the Best Young Player
0:37:13 > 0:37:16both 1966 to 2014,
0:37:16 > 0:37:19or the winner of the Golden Ball, and that's 1982 to 2014.
0:37:19 > 0:37:21- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:37:21 > 0:37:24Now, as always, you've up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:37:24 > 0:37:26and all you need to win that jackpot
0:37:26 > 0:37:28is for just one of those answers to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:37:28 > 0:37:31- Yep.- Yep, we're ready.- Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35OK, teams in the semifinal.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37Did South Korea get to the semifinal one year?
0:37:37 > 0:37:40- I don't know. Cameroon, did Cameroon?- Yeah, maybe.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42I don't know if they got all the way to the semifinal, though.
0:37:42 > 0:37:46Winners of the Golden Ball - Paolo Rossi.
0:37:46 > 0:37:47Did Rossi win it?
0:37:47 > 0:37:49What about Roger Milla?
0:37:49 > 0:37:52- Yeah, that's another one, yeah. - Roger Milla might have won it.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54- Yeah.- What about Best Young Player?
0:37:54 > 0:37:55Um...
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Ronaldo or...
0:37:58 > 0:38:01THEY CONFER
0:38:03 > 0:38:06- The winner of the Golden Ball? - Yeah, we're going to have to go...
0:38:07 > 0:38:09Teams in the semifinal...
0:38:09 > 0:38:11Did South Korea get as far as the semifinal, though?
0:38:11 > 0:38:13- They might've done, yeah.- Hungary?
0:38:13 > 0:38:15- Hungary?- Yeah.
0:38:15 > 0:38:16Did they?
0:38:16 > 0:38:19THEY CONFER
0:38:19 > 0:38:21- What are we going to go for?- Er...
0:38:22 > 0:38:24- Ten seconds left.- We'll go for...
0:38:24 > 0:38:26- Paolo Rossi?- Yeah.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28- BOTH:- And...
0:38:28 > 0:38:30Teams in the semifinals.
0:38:30 > 0:38:33South Korea, we'll go for South Korea.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36OK, that is your minute up. Let's have your three answers.
0:38:36 > 0:38:37What are you going to go for?
0:38:37 > 0:38:42- We're going to go South Korea in the semifinal.- OK, South Korea.
0:38:42 > 0:38:44Paolo Rossi for the Golden Ball.
0:38:44 > 0:38:45Paolo Rossi.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47Roger Milla, Roger Milla for the...
0:38:47 > 0:38:48I think he's old...
0:38:48 > 0:38:50For the winner of the Golden Ball?
0:38:50 > 0:38:51Oh, yeah, we'll go Roger Milla, then.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53Roger Milla. Now, of those three,
0:38:53 > 0:38:55which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:55 > 0:38:58- Roger Milla, maybe.- Roger Milla. - OK, Roger Milla we'll put last.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00Least likely to be pointless?
0:39:00 > 0:39:02- South Korea.- Yeah. - South Korea we'll put first.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05Well, let's put those answers up on the board in that order, then,
0:39:05 > 0:39:10and here they are. We have got South Korea, Paolo Rossi and Roger Milla.
0:39:10 > 0:39:13Well, very, very best of luck. Three good answers there.
0:39:13 > 0:39:14If one of these turns out to be pointless
0:39:14 > 0:39:17and wins you that jackpot, what would you like to do with it? Joe?
0:39:17 > 0:39:20I should really take the family on holiday,
0:39:20 > 0:39:22but I'll probably buy another guitar.
0:39:22 > 0:39:26I'm so glad you said guitar rather than little mirror on a stick.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29- I have enough of those.- Oh, OK. Fair enough. Another guitar.
0:39:29 > 0:39:30Lorcan, how about you?
0:39:30 > 0:39:34Well, it's a toss-up between either taking the kids to Legoland
0:39:34 > 0:39:38or taking them to Glastonbury, like, so I think Glastonbury may win.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40- Yeah, yeah.- There we are. Well, very, very best of luck.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43Three good answers, as I say. Your first answer was South Korea.
0:39:43 > 0:39:45In this case, we're looking for any team
0:39:45 > 0:39:48that's made it to the semifinals of a Fifa World Cup.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50If this is pointless, it will win you £1,000.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52How many people said South Korea?
0:39:55 > 0:39:57It's right.
0:39:57 > 0:39:58Now, if this goes all the way down to zero,
0:39:58 > 0:40:00you will leave here with £1,000.
0:40:00 > 0:40:03Down goes South Korea through the 30s,
0:40:03 > 0:40:05into the teens, into single figures.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07Still going down, down it goes.
0:40:07 > 0:40:08Down to three.
0:40:13 > 0:40:15That's a great score.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Sadly, not a pointless answer.
0:40:17 > 0:40:20So we move onto your next answer, which is Paolo Rossi.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22In this case, we were looking for winners of the Golden Ball.
0:40:22 > 0:40:26Paolo Rossi. If Paolo Rossi is pointless, it wins you the £1,000.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28How many people said Paolo Rossi?
0:40:32 > 0:40:35Again, it's right. South Korea took us all the way down to three.
0:40:35 > 0:40:39Paolo Rossi - how far down will we go with him?
0:40:39 > 0:40:41Down we go through the teens, we're into single figures, yes, we are.
0:40:41 > 0:40:43Still going down, still going.
0:40:43 > 0:40:45Oh, we're stuck at three again. AUDIENCE GROANS
0:40:49 > 0:40:53OK. The pressure of two answers on that threshold at three
0:40:53 > 0:40:55surely is enough to break through.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58This last answer must go down to pointless, surely.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00Roger Milla is your last answer -
0:41:00 > 0:41:02once again we're looking for winners of the Golden Ball.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04Let's see how many people said Roger Milla.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06For £1,000, is it pointless?
0:41:10 > 0:41:11Oh, bad luck.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17Bad luck. Valid attempt, though. Two very good answers -
0:41:17 > 0:41:20three is a fabulous score at this stage of the game.
0:41:20 > 0:41:23But, annoyingly, we only accept pointless answers
0:41:23 > 0:41:25and you just didn't find that pointless answer you needed,
0:41:25 > 0:41:27so I'm afraid today's jackpot of £1,000 will roll over
0:41:27 > 0:41:30onto the next show. But it's been brilliant having you on.
0:41:30 > 0:41:32Thank you so much. Really strong performance across the show
0:41:32 > 0:41:34and you get to take home a Pointless trophy each,
0:41:34 > 0:41:37so very well done indeed, Joe and Lorcan.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Yeah, not a bad category.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45Look, there'll be answers up there that you know but in that 60 seconds
0:41:45 > 0:41:47it's very hard and you came up with two very, very good answers.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50Let's take a look at the pointless answers.
0:41:50 > 0:41:53Belgium, Bulgaria, Poland and Turkey -
0:41:53 > 0:41:55all of those were pointless answers,
0:41:55 > 0:41:58Soviet Union as well is the other pointless answer there.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01We will take a little look now at the winners of the Golden Ball.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03There's only two pointless answers here.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06Diego Forlan and Oliver Kahn, the German goalie.
0:42:06 > 0:42:09I think in the year that Roger Milla had a great World Cup,
0:42:09 > 0:42:11I think Toto Schillaci won it that year, the Italian,
0:42:11 > 0:42:13who would've scored you two points. More pointless answers,
0:42:13 > 0:42:16quite a few pointless answers for the Best Young Player,
0:42:16 > 0:42:18and some very famous players, as well.
0:42:18 > 0:42:20Franz Beckenbauer won it in 1966 -
0:42:20 > 0:42:22funny to think of him as a young player.
0:42:22 > 0:42:26Lukas Podolski, Marc Overmars, the Dutchman, Paul Pogba -
0:42:26 > 0:42:29of course, very famous these days, playing for Man United.
0:42:29 > 0:42:33You could've had Cabrini, you could've had Enzo Scifo of Belgium,
0:42:33 > 0:42:36Landon Donovan, Manuel Amoros, Robert Prosinecki,
0:42:36 > 0:42:39Teofilo Cubillas, the Peruvian,
0:42:39 > 0:42:41or Wladyslaw Zmuda in 1974.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43Very well done if you got any of those at home,
0:42:43 > 0:42:47- and unlucky in the studio. It's tough in those 60 seconds.- Mm.
0:42:47 > 0:42:48Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:42:48 > 0:42:50And thanks very much, Joe and Lorcan.
0:42:50 > 0:42:52Sadly, they didn't win our jackpot today,
0:42:52 > 0:42:54which means it rolls over onto the next show,
0:42:54 > 0:42:56when we will be playing for £2,000.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02Join us next time to see if someone can win it.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09APPLAUSE
