0:00:15 > 0:00:17APPLAUSE

0:00:24 > 0:00:27Thank you. I'm Alexander Armstrong. Welcome to Pointless.

0:00:27 > 0:00:28This is the show where all the

0:00:28 > 0:00:30questions have been asked to 100 people.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32All our contestants have to do is

0:00:32 > 0:00:34come up with the answers no-one else could think of.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36Let's meet today's players. APPLAUSE

0:00:40 > 0:00:41Couple number one.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44Hello. My name is Gwen, this is my friend John,

0:00:44 > 0:00:46and we're from North Wales.

0:00:46 > 0:00:47Couple number two.

0:00:47 > 0:00:49Hello, there. My name's Chris, and this is my fiancee Eleanor,

0:00:49 > 0:00:51and we come from Glasgow.

0:00:51 > 0:00:52Couple number three.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54Hi. My name is Haluk, this is my older brother Tahir,

0:00:54 > 0:00:56and we're from north London.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58And, finally, couple number four.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Hi. My name is Hav, and this is my friend Indy,

0:01:00 > 0:01:01and we're both from Gravesend in Kent.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03And these are today's contestants.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05APPLAUSE

0:01:05 > 0:01:07Thanks very much to all of you. A warm welcome to the show.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10Great to have you here. We'll get a chance to chat to each of you

0:01:10 > 0:01:12throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14So that just leaves once more person for me to introduce.

0:01:14 > 0:01:17He says I have more money than sense, which is a double insult,

0:01:17 > 0:01:19because I really only ever carry a tenner.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23Hiya! Hello, everybody.

0:01:23 > 0:01:24Afternoon.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26APPLAUSE

0:01:26 > 0:01:28- Good afternoon to you, sir. - Good afternoon.- How are you?

0:01:28 > 0:01:31- I'm very well.- Excellent. Two returning pairs from the last show.

0:01:31 > 0:01:32Chris and Eleanor, welcome back.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Hopefully we'll see a bit more of you this time.

0:01:34 > 0:01:36And Haluk and Tahir, who were

0:01:36 > 0:01:38through to the head-to-head last time,

0:01:38 > 0:01:40it was one-all, and they knew every single answer

0:01:40 > 0:01:43that would have won them the point, and they went for the wrong one.

0:01:43 > 0:01:48- Yes.- So didn't play for that £6,250 jackpot last time.

0:01:48 > 0:01:50Imagine if you were them, you'd be

0:01:50 > 0:01:51desperate to know if our other couple

0:01:51 > 0:01:53won it last time, because they don't know yet.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57- They were brilliant, weren't they? - It was amazing.- John and Andrina.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00- They... Oh.- They will be very tough to beat on podium three, I think.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Shall we find out about that jackpot?

0:02:02 > 0:02:05Yes, John and Andrina didn't win the jackpot last time,

0:02:05 > 0:02:06so we add another £1,000 to it.

0:02:06 > 0:02:11So today's jackpot starts off - look at this, £7,250.

0:02:11 > 0:02:12There we are.

0:02:12 > 0:02:13APPLAUSE

0:02:15 > 0:02:18Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:23 > 0:02:24Well, listen, the pair with the

0:02:24 > 0:02:26highest score at the end of each round

0:02:26 > 0:02:28will be eliminated, so keep your scores nice and low,

0:02:28 > 0:02:30and it could be you playing for that jackpot.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Best of luck to all four pairs. Our first category this afternoon is...

0:02:35 > 0:02:36Modern Art.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39Modern Art. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:02:39 > 0:02:40who's going to go second?

0:02:40 > 0:02:43And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49OK, and the question concerns...

0:02:53 > 0:02:56..artists born in the 20th century.

0:02:56 > 0:02:57- Richard.- Yes, seven clues on each board.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59The answers to all of them are

0:02:59 > 0:03:00artists who were born in the 20th century.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03You just need the most obscure answer you can find, please.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05There will be 14 in all to have a go at at home. Very best of luck.

0:03:05 > 0:03:09Thanks very much indeed, Richard. So we are looking for these artists.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Born, all of them, in the 20th century.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14Here is our first board of clues.

0:03:14 > 0:03:15And we have got...

0:03:51 > 0:03:52I'll read those all again.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27John.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Welcome to Pointless.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31I have no idea of any of them,

0:04:31 > 0:04:34so I'm going to guess and say the British sculptor,

0:04:34 > 0:04:36I'm going to say Alvin King.

0:04:36 > 0:04:37You're going to say Alvin King.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39- Yeah.- Alvin King.

0:04:39 > 0:04:40Before we take that answer from you, John,

0:04:40 > 0:04:42I want to quiz you a little bit.

0:04:42 > 0:04:43What do you do, John?

0:04:43 > 0:04:46- I'm a farmer.- You're a farmer. What sort of sort of farmer are you?

0:04:46 > 0:04:48- It's beef and sheep.- Beef and sheep.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52Mainly sheep, mainly beef, or pretty much even down the middle?

0:04:52 > 0:04:53We've got more sheep than beef.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56- In North Wales?- Yes, in Anglesey.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Very nice indeed.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00- So lovely.- That's a proper farmer.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Oh, that's so nice, isn't it?

0:05:02 > 0:05:05That's nice. You are into Anglesey, are you?

0:05:05 > 0:05:06Yes.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09I'm like... You can see Snowdonia,

0:05:09 > 0:05:11as well, in the background, so not bad.

0:05:11 > 0:05:12Oh, John!

0:05:12 > 0:05:15Tell you what, let's all give this up.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18Shall we all go back to your farm and let's do this show there?

0:05:18 > 0:05:21- Yes.- Wouldn't that be lovely?

0:05:21 > 0:05:25Like a Pointless Countryfile, kind of, mash up.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27That would be nice. Just have the odd sort of, "Moo!"...

0:05:27 > 0:05:28LAUGHTER

0:05:28 > 0:05:31- ..in the background. That would be nice.- Exactly.

0:05:31 > 0:05:32It's a terrible sheep impression.

0:05:32 > 0:05:33LAUGHTER

0:05:35 > 0:05:39Now, remind me. You have gone for Alvin King.

0:05:39 > 0:05:40Alvin King, yes, first one.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43Alvin King for the Orbit structure.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46Let's see. Alvin King.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53I'm afraid not Alvin King, John, I'm afraid.

0:05:53 > 0:05:54That scores you 100 points.

0:05:54 > 0:05:56It may well not be the last 100-pointer of the round,

0:05:56 > 0:05:59so don't lose heart.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01- Yes.- If we were in North Wales on your farm,

0:06:01 > 0:06:04he would literally tell us to get to get off his land immediately.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07- That's true.- Wouldn't he? - Thank you very much indeed.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09Eleanor, welcome back. Lovely to have you with us again.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Now, listen, it was Round One we had to say goodbye to you last time.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15- It was.- We'll have no repetition of that. Thank you very much indeed.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Remind us what you do.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20I'm just doing my doctorate in clinical psychology just now

0:06:20 > 0:06:21at Glasgow University.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23How's it going? Is that all right?

0:06:23 > 0:06:24It's...

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Everything you hoped it would be?

0:06:26 > 0:06:29It's very busy, but a very rewarding job.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32Is there a sort of practical element to it as well?

0:06:32 > 0:06:34There is. You work, kind of, in the NHS with patients,

0:06:34 > 0:06:37doing psychotherapy as well.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Yes, quite a full curriculum I would have thought.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Yes. How long is the course?

0:06:41 > 0:06:43It's three years in total.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Right. OK. Very good.

0:06:45 > 0:06:46Now, Eleanor, are you liking this round?

0:06:46 > 0:06:50Are you pleased with our round on 20th century artists?

0:06:50 > 0:06:53No. It's a very difficult round,

0:06:53 > 0:06:54I think.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58There's one that I think I know, so I'm just going to go for that one.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02Which is the street artist who created Dismaland,

0:07:02 > 0:07:04and I think that's Banksy.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06Banksy, says Eleanor, for the B at the bottom.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Let's see how many of our 100 people said Banksy.

0:07:11 > 0:07:16It's right. Well, 100 is our high score and 57 is now our low.

0:07:16 > 0:07:17Not bad at all.

0:07:17 > 0:07:18APPLAUSE

0:07:20 > 0:07:21Yes, well played.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24I'm such a huge fan of Banksy. I genuinely think he's terrific.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27His documentary Exit Through The Gift Shop is brilliant.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30He set up a stall in Central Park in America in 2013, I think.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32So you get off knock-off Banksies all the time,

0:07:32 > 0:07:35you see people selling things because they're all stencilled,

0:07:35 > 0:07:37and he set up a stall selling his original work,

0:07:37 > 0:07:39but no-one knew it was original.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41It was selling for 60 a piece.

0:07:41 > 0:07:42- How about that?- Good for him.

0:07:42 > 0:07:43Thank you very much, Richard.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45Haluk, welcome back.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Oh, head-to-head, within touching

0:07:47 > 0:07:50distance of the final last time, Haluk.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54- Remind us what you do. - I work in e-commerce.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56In e-commerce, that's right.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58And your interests?

0:07:59 > 0:08:03So, sports - football, basketball, American football.

0:08:03 > 0:08:07I play football weekly, and aside from that, just not shaving, really.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09LAUGHTER

0:08:09 > 0:08:11All bases covered there.

0:08:11 > 0:08:12Exactly, yeah.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15What would you like to go for on our board here?

0:08:15 > 0:08:18So, Banksy was the only one I truly knew.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22The Turner Prize winning artist and film-maker for 12 Years A Slave.

0:08:22 > 0:08:26I love this movie. I know his name. I've just gone blank.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28It's a famous name, but he's not the famous person.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30This is the thing.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34Simon Michaels.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37Simon Michaels says Haluk.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40Let's see how many of our 100 people said Simon Michaels.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Oh, you're going to kick yourself when you know because

0:08:48 > 0:08:50you know what it is. You know absolutely what it is.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52- As soon as I hear it. - Scores you 100 points, I'm afraid.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54Not Simon Michaels. Good made-up name, though.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57I'll give the correct answer at the end of the pass.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Indy, welcome to Pointless.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01- Good to have you here.- Thank you.

0:09:01 > 0:09:04- What do you do, Indy?- I'm currently between jobs,

0:09:04 > 0:09:07- but I was an English teacher.- Change of direction for you, or sacked?

0:09:07 > 0:09:09LAUGHTER

0:09:09 > 0:09:11Change of direction, yes.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13OK, that's fine. What direction do you want to go in?

0:09:13 > 0:09:16- Hopefully publishing. - Oh, that would be nice.

0:09:16 > 0:09:19Any particular area of publishing you would like to go into?

0:09:19 > 0:09:22Ideally literature, like fiction, at the end,

0:09:22 > 0:09:25but I think academic would be quite good, too.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27Very good indeed. Now that sounds like a really fun thing.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29How do you go about getting into publishing?

0:09:29 > 0:09:31- Do you apply to all the houses?- You tell me.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Well, you announce it on Pointless, I think.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35- That's how you do it. - You announce it on Pointless

0:09:35 > 0:09:37and then give a great answer. That's the way to do it.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39That's what you do, exactly.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Yes, you get the lowest score in a pass.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44Indy, talk us through this board anyway.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47All I know for certain is Salvador Dali at the top.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50Maybe Sam Mendes for the film-maker.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53But I'm going to stick with Salvador Dali.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55Stick with Salvador Dali, says Indy.

0:09:55 > 0:09:59Let's see how many of our 100 people agree with Indy, Salvador Dali.

0:10:01 > 0:10:02It's right.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07Well, you are the lowest scorer of the pass actually, Indy. Not bad.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09APPLAUSE 43 for Salvador Dali.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15Well played. We've got a lot to fill in on this board.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17- I can do that.- The sculptor who was made a Dame.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19- Barbara Hepworth.- Barbara Hepworth.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21Would have scored you 14.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23Have you been to her studios down in St Ives?

0:10:23 > 0:10:26- No.- It's really worth it. Very beautiful. Really worth a trip.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28Now, you're right, he does have a famous name,

0:10:28 > 0:10:31but he's not the most famous person with this name. It is...

0:10:31 > 0:10:32- Steve McQueen.- Steve McQueen.

0:10:32 > 0:10:33That's the one!

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Would have scored you 23 points.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Steve McQueen's real name?

0:10:37 > 0:10:39Simon Michaels, did you know that?

0:10:39 > 0:10:40LAUGHTER

0:10:40 > 0:10:41That's his real name!

0:10:41 > 0:10:43- The British sculptor.- Anish Kapoor.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45He would have scored you five points.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47That's the best answer on the board.

0:10:47 > 0:10:48Angel of the North sculptor?

0:10:48 > 0:10:51- Antony Gormley.- Antony Gormley. That would have scored you 22.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53And probably the most famous of the modern artists.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56- Damien Hirst.- Damien Hirst, yes, of course, and he would have scored 33.

0:10:56 > 0:10:57Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00Halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.

0:11:00 > 0:11:0343, Indy, actually the best score of the pass, so there we are.

0:11:03 > 0:11:0557, where we find Eleanor and Chris,

0:11:05 > 0:11:08and up to 100 where we find Haluk and Tahir and John and Gwen.

0:11:08 > 0:11:12So, yes, Tahir and Gwen, it's going to be between the pair of you.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Best of luck. We're going to come back down the line.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17Could the second players please step up to the podium?

0:11:19 > 0:11:21OK, let's put seven more clues

0:11:21 > 0:11:23to 20th-century artists up on the board,

0:11:23 > 0:11:24and here they are.

0:11:59 > 0:12:00I'll read those all again.

0:12:35 > 0:12:36Now then, Hav.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38Welcome. Welcome to Pointless.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40Good to have you here. Hav, what do you do?

0:12:40 > 0:12:43So, I'm actually on an internship at an oil and gas company,

0:12:43 > 0:12:45but it's kind of in the middle of my degree.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47I'm studying chemical engineering at Surrey right now.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48I see. Then you will go on to...

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Yeah, so I'm going back to do my masters next year.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53Right. But you are attached to the oil and gas?

0:12:53 > 0:12:57Not attached as such. I'd, you know, quite like to work in it,

0:12:57 > 0:12:59- but it's not certain yet.- I see.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01Will that be offshore, or will

0:13:01 > 0:13:05that be anywhere in the world, or will that in Gravesend, in Kent?

0:13:05 > 0:13:07What sort of job will that be?

0:13:07 > 0:13:09Yeah, probably most likely at some, like, a site,

0:13:09 > 0:13:12like a refinery, or something like that, would be, like,

0:13:12 > 0:13:14the ideal situation, but could end up going anywhere really, so...

0:13:14 > 0:13:16Could take you anywhere. It sounds fun.

0:13:16 > 0:13:19Anyway, what would you like to go for, Hav?

0:13:20 > 0:13:23I've only got an idea on a couple of those.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25The middle one's popping out at me now, the...

0:13:25 > 0:13:26One of the YBAs. I think.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Is that Tracey Emin? I think I'm going to go with.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Well, Tracey Emin is your answer.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32If you score 56 or less, you are definitely into the next round.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35There's your red line. How many people said Tracey Emin?

0:13:38 > 0:13:39It's right.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43And sees you comfortably through.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46There we are. 43. Exactly the same score as Indy, in fact.

0:13:46 > 0:13:4786 is your total.

0:13:47 > 0:13:48Very well done.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51Yeah, she was appointed as a professor of drawing

0:13:51 > 0:13:53at the Royal Academy of Arts in 2011, Tracey Emin.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56Thank you very much, Richard.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58Now, Tahir.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01Tahir, welcome back. Now, remind us what you do.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04Just finished second-year chemistry, starting third-year very soon.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07Very good. And spending 18 hours a week in the gym,

0:14:07 > 0:14:09we discovered last time.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12Well... And doing cardio outside, so it's part of the exercise total.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14But that's a commitment, isn't it, Tahir?

0:14:14 > 0:14:16- It's a religion, yeah.- Yeah, it is.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18I mean, so, I said last time you were hench.

0:14:18 > 0:14:19I'm going to upgrade that.

0:14:19 > 0:14:23You are wedge. In fact, I'm going to go up, you are tonk!

0:14:23 > 0:14:25LAUGHTER

0:14:25 > 0:14:27- Thank you.- Oh! You're all of these things, Tahir.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30- Thank you.- Tahir, listen, you are joint high-scorers.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32What are you going to go for?

0:14:32 > 0:14:34There are two that I think I know,

0:14:34 > 0:14:36based on the initials. These could turn out to be wrong.

0:14:36 > 0:14:40But based on the initials, I'll go with Bradford-born artist,

0:14:40 > 0:14:42A Little Splash is one of his swimming pool paintings -

0:14:42 > 0:14:43David Hockney?

0:14:43 > 0:14:45David Hockney, says Tahir.

0:14:45 > 0:14:47No red line for you as you're joint high-scorers.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50Let's see how many of our 100 people said David Hockney.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00Well, look at that. Down we go to 28.

0:15:00 > 0:15:01APPLAUSE

0:15:01 > 0:15:03That's the kind of score we haven't

0:15:03 > 0:15:05been seeing this round so far. But it takes your total up to 128.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08Yeah, voted the most influential British artist of all time,

0:15:08 > 0:15:11David Hockney. He was supposed to do national service but he was

0:15:11 > 0:15:14a conscientious objector, so worked in hospitals for two years.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19Now, Chris, welcome back.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21Now, remind us what you do, Chris.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Yeah, actor and comedian.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25Or wannabe actor and comedian.

0:15:25 > 0:15:26Now, what sort of acting do you do?

0:15:26 > 0:15:29Is there a fringe group, or something like that, you're part of?

0:15:29 > 0:15:31I have been in a sketch group for a while.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33I mostly do acting work in Scotland,

0:15:33 > 0:15:36so I'm part of a wee show up there called Scot Squad,

0:15:36 > 0:15:37which is my main work.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40That's fun. So how often do you get together with Scot Squad?

0:15:40 > 0:15:41We do it kind of once a year.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43We've done kind of three seasons of it.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45And then sort of take that, do you tour it round or...?

0:15:45 > 0:15:48We don't do that live. It's a kind of wee mini television show.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51I see. Oh, that's excellent. So who do you make that for?

0:15:51 > 0:15:53It's just BBC Scotland.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Very good. That's exciting.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57Now, there you are on 57.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00The high-scorers at the moment are Tahir and Haluk on 128,

0:16:00 > 0:16:03so 70 or less is what we require from you.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05There is only one that I think I know.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07Thankfully, no-one has said it yet.

0:16:07 > 0:16:08It could still be wrong,

0:16:08 > 0:16:11but the Pittsburgh-born artist who made prints,

0:16:11 > 0:16:12I'm going to say Andy Warhol.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14Andy Warhol, says Chris.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16Here is your red line. If you can get below this red line

0:16:16 > 0:16:18with Andy Warhol, you are through to Round Two.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20Let's see how many people said Andy Warhol.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25It's right. You've done it.

0:16:27 > 0:16:28You shall go to Round Two.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30There we are. Well done. 33 is your score.

0:16:30 > 0:16:31APPLAUSE

0:16:31 > 0:16:3390 is your total.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37Yeah, he attended mass daily, Andy Warhol.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40Thanks very much, Richard. Gwen, welcome.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42- Thank you.- Welcome to Pointless.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44- What do you do, Gwen?- I'm retired.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47I used to be a teacher before I retired last year.

0:16:47 > 0:16:50- And how is retirement?- Fantastic. - And are you also up in North Wales?

0:16:50 > 0:16:51Oh, yes. I live in Caernarfon.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53- Yes.- Oh, how nice.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Lovely. So, what sort of things...

0:16:55 > 0:16:58Have you taken anything up for your retirement?

0:16:58 > 0:17:01Yes, quite a lot of things. I've joined various movements.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04I've been travelling, do a lot of walking,

0:17:04 > 0:17:06everything you do when you retire, basically.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09Very nice indeed. Perfect. Coming on Pointless, for example.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11- Of course!- Now, there you are.

0:17:11 > 0:17:15You are on 100. Our high-scorers, still Tahir and Haluk on 128,

0:17:15 > 0:17:17so 27 or less is what we require from you.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20- Would you like to talk us through that board?- No. I've no idea.

0:17:20 > 0:17:21I have no idea.

0:17:21 > 0:17:25I mean, the three that I thought I knew, yes, I did know them,

0:17:25 > 0:17:27but they've gone. So I'm going to be very creative

0:17:27 > 0:17:30and I think I will go

0:17:30 > 0:17:33for the first one which is...

0:17:33 > 0:17:35Robert Linden.

0:17:35 > 0:17:36- Robert Linden.- Yes.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Robert Linden. There's your red line.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39Get below that with Robert Linden,

0:17:39 > 0:17:42you're through to the next round. Is it right, though?

0:17:42 > 0:17:44- And you have just made it up, as well.- I did.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Be amazing if it's right. Let's see.

0:17:49 > 0:17:50No, I fear not.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52- No surprise. - That's great news on podium three,

0:17:52 > 0:17:54less good news on podium one.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57That scores you 100 and takes your total up to 200.

0:17:57 > 0:17:58Unlucky. I was thinking,

0:17:58 > 0:18:00how gutted would you be on podium three if that was right?

0:18:00 > 0:18:03If you had just plucked it out of thin air?

0:18:03 > 0:18:05- But the top one? - Is Roy Lichtenstein.

0:18:05 > 0:18:07- Yeah, Roy Lichtenstein. - Lichtenstein.

0:18:07 > 0:18:08Would have scored you 17 points.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10You'll recognise it. He did all the pointillist stuff.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12- The potter?- Grayson Perry.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Grayson Perry. He would have scored you 17.

0:18:15 > 0:18:16Let's go down the bottom.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19- The drip painter?- Jackson Pollock. - Jackson Pollock.

0:18:19 > 0:18:21He would have scored you 20 points.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23And this is the guy... He's put slides all over the place.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26Does lots of things, as well. A German gentleman?

0:18:26 > 0:18:27He's called Carsten Holler.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30Ah. And it's a pointless answer, so very well done if you said that.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35So, we are at the end of our first round and we have to say goodbye

0:18:35 > 0:18:37to our newest members of the 200 club, Gwen and John.

0:18:37 > 0:18:39It's been lovely having you here. Far too brief,

0:18:39 > 0:18:42but we'll see you again next time. I'm sure you'll go further then.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45In the meantime, thanks so much, Gwen and John.

0:18:45 > 0:18:46APPLAUSE

0:18:46 > 0:18:50But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56And, look at that, we're suddenly down to three pairs.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58And at the end of this round, we will be down to two.

0:18:58 > 0:19:02Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two today is...

0:19:04 > 0:19:05Can you all decide in your pairs

0:19:05 > 0:19:08who's going to go first, who's going to go second?

0:19:08 > 0:19:10Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:19:13 > 0:19:16OK, let's find out what the question is.

0:19:16 > 0:19:20Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:19:20 > 0:19:24as many words that begin with "S" and end with "P" as they could.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Hmm, Richard.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Yeah, we're looking for any word which has its own entry

0:19:28 > 0:19:30in the British and world English

0:19:30 > 0:19:32section of oxforddictionaries.com, please,

0:19:32 > 0:19:33that begins with S and ends in P.

0:19:33 > 0:19:37No hyphenated words, no proper nouns, anything like that.

0:19:37 > 0:19:38Very best of luck.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40- Hmm.- Hmm!- Got one.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43- Have you?- Mm!

0:19:43 > 0:19:44You've got this quite quickly.

0:19:44 > 0:19:47- That will change what I think it's going to be, maybe.- It may do.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49I'm going to have a little think about what that is.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51I think you'll get this one.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53All right, OK. Anyway, here we go.

0:19:53 > 0:19:57- Now, Eleanor, always tough going first.- It is. Yeah.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59Erm...

0:19:59 > 0:20:00I think...

0:20:00 > 0:20:03I'm going to go with

0:20:03 > 0:20:05steep.

0:20:05 > 0:20:06Yeah, I'm going to go with steep.

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Steep. OK, steep.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10Let's see how many of our 100 people said steep.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20Look at that, not bad at all.

0:20:20 > 0:20:2120 for steep.

0:20:26 > 0:20:29Yeah, rising or falling in an almost perpendicular manner.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32- Steep.- Thanks very much, Richard.

0:20:32 > 0:20:36Now, Haluk, what would you like to go for?

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Well, I'll definitely do better than last time.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42I'd like to go for stirrup.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44Stirrup. Let's see how many of our 100 people said stirrup.

0:20:54 > 0:20:55Stirrup, seven, look at that.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57APPLAUSE

0:20:57 > 0:21:01Well played. Seven for stirrup.

0:21:01 > 0:21:02Yeah, very good answer. It means stirrup.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:21:06 > 0:21:07Now then, Indy.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10Ah. Erm...

0:21:10 > 0:21:12I was definitely thinking of stirrup. No lie.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15There are other words beginning and ending S and P.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17There is one that's a little bit simpler

0:21:17 > 0:21:19and then one that's really...

0:21:19 > 0:21:22I'm not really sure. It might not be a word.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24But...

0:21:24 > 0:21:26I think I'll go simple, so I'll say scalp.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29OK. Scalp, says Indy.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31Let's see how many of our 100 people said scalp.

0:21:34 > 0:21:35It's right.

0:21:35 > 0:21:3820 is our high score, seven is our low.

0:21:41 > 0:21:42What about that, 4 for scalp?

0:21:42 > 0:21:43APPLAUSE

0:21:45 > 0:21:47Turns out that was a great answer.

0:21:47 > 0:21:51Yeah, the skin covering the head except for the face.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Also to sell tickets at above their face value.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56Thank you very much indeed.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Well, we're halfway through our words round.

0:21:58 > 0:21:59Let's have a quick look at those scores.

0:21:59 > 0:22:004. Very well done, Indy.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03Indy and Hav looking very strong on the back of that score.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05As, I have to say,

0:22:05 > 0:22:07are Haluk and Tahir on 7 because 20 is quite high,

0:22:07 > 0:22:10Eleanor and Chris, so we need a lovely low score from you, Chris,

0:22:10 > 0:22:13and lets hope it's low enough to keep you in the game.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16We're going to come back down the line now.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:22:19 > 0:22:21OK, so, Hav, remember,

0:22:21 > 0:22:23it's any word that begins with an S and ends with a P.

0:22:25 > 0:22:26I think I had one in mind, but I

0:22:26 > 0:22:28think Haluk give me a bit of an idea,

0:22:28 > 0:22:31so I'm going to go with syrup.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33- Syrup?- Yeah.

0:22:33 > 0:22:34Syrup, says Hav.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37Here is your red line. If you get below this red line with syrup,

0:22:37 > 0:22:39you are through to the next round.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41How many of our 100 people said syrup?

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Look at that, you're through.

0:22:51 > 0:22:527.

0:22:52 > 0:22:55- Well done. - Taking your total up to 11.

0:22:55 > 0:22:56APPLAUSE

0:22:57 > 0:23:00Yeah, you know what? His answer gave me exactly the same idea

0:23:00 > 0:23:01because I was so close to doing

0:23:01 > 0:23:03a "how much I like Golden Stirrup" joke

0:23:03 > 0:23:05before I realised that syrup

0:23:05 > 0:23:07was also an acceptable answer, so I couldn't.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:23:10 > 0:23:13Now, then.

0:23:13 > 0:23:14Tahir.

0:23:15 > 0:23:16What would you like to go for?

0:23:16 > 0:23:19I have multiple answers in my head,

0:23:19 > 0:23:21but the best I can think of is swoop.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23Swoop.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Very good. OK, here is your red line.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27If you can get below this red line with swoop,

0:23:27 > 0:23:29you are through to the next round.

0:23:29 > 0:23:30How many people said swoop?

0:23:34 > 0:23:35It's right.

0:23:39 > 0:23:42Gets you through. Look at that, down to 3.

0:23:42 > 0:23:43Very well done indeed.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46Taking your total up to 10, the lowest total of the round.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50Well played. Yeah, to move rapidly downwards through the air,

0:23:50 > 0:23:52or to have a super fast arrest.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54- Exactly.- When they do a dawn swoop.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56- A super fast arrest, exactly. - On the Hatton Garden raiders.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58There you are. Thank you.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01Chris... Chris, I'm afraid I have bad news.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04I'm afraid you are the high-scorers.

0:24:04 > 0:24:07But, oh, I bet you've got a really good answer.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09I'll maybe just go with stoop.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11OK, you're going to go with stoop.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13Let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15There's no red line for you, I'm afraid,

0:24:15 > 0:24:17as you're already the high-scorers.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27Not bad, 13. Takes your total up to 33.

0:24:27 > 0:24:28APPLAUSE

0:24:30 > 0:24:33I was going to say, you could have gone with stand up.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35- But then maybe that's two words. - I think that is two words.

0:24:35 > 0:24:36Yeah, what's your word?

0:24:36 > 0:24:39- Satrap.- Satrap?

0:24:39 > 0:24:40- Mm.- By the Boomtown Rats?

0:24:42 > 0:24:44Satrap, two points.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47- Huh!- Yeah.- Yeah.- Let's take a look at some other pointless answers.

0:24:47 > 0:24:50Loads of good words here, actually.

0:24:50 > 0:24:52Let's take a look at a few.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54Schlep is a pointless answer. Would have been a nice one.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56There's scholarship.

0:24:56 > 0:24:59Scrapheap, pointless answer. Well done if you said that.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02Scrum, shaddup, like, "Shaddup ya face."

0:25:02 > 0:25:04Showmanship, pointless answer.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Sidelamp, sidestep, a pointless answer.

0:25:09 > 0:25:10Starship is a pointless answer.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13There's loads and loads of good answers out there.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15Sweatshop is a pointless answer.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Let's take a look at the top three,

0:25:17 > 0:25:19the ones that most of our 100 people said.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:25:26 > 0:25:27We are at the end of our second round

0:25:27 > 0:25:30and the pair we have to send home with their high score of 33,

0:25:30 > 0:25:31it's Chris and Eleanor.

0:25:31 > 0:25:32So sorry. We actually say goodbye.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34You've done twice as well, though, this second time.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36It's been great having you here.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39Thank you so much, Chris and Eleanor. APPLAUSE

0:25:41 > 0:25:44But for the remaining two pairs, it is now time for our head-to-head.

0:25:48 > 0:25:52Congratulations, Hav and Indy, Tahir and Haluk,

0:25:52 > 0:25:54you are now one step closer to the final

0:25:54 > 0:25:56and a chance to play for that jackpot,

0:25:56 > 0:25:59which currently stands at £7,250.

0:25:59 > 0:26:00Woo!

0:26:00 > 0:26:01APPLAUSE

0:26:02 > 0:26:04That would be a nice jackpot to take home.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06Anyway, we are now at the head-to-head,

0:26:06 > 0:26:09which means you are now allowed to confer before you give your answers

0:26:09 > 0:26:10and the first pair to win two

0:26:10 > 0:26:12questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:26:12 > 0:26:14Very, very best of luck to both pairs.

0:26:14 > 0:26:15Let's play the head-to-head.

0:26:15 > 0:26:16APPLAUSE

0:26:21 > 0:26:25OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...

0:26:28 > 0:26:30- Richard.- We're going to show you five pictures now of cities

0:26:30 > 0:26:33that are amongst the most expensive in the world in which to live.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35We just need you to identify the most obscure

0:26:35 > 0:26:38- of these five cities, please. - Thanks very much indeed.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41Let's reveal our five cities and here they come.

0:26:41 > 0:26:42We've got...

0:27:15 > 0:27:18And we have initials there for each of those cities

0:27:18 > 0:27:21and the first initial for A is C,

0:27:21 > 0:27:24for B it's P, for C it's Z,

0:27:24 > 0:27:26for D it's S, and for E it's HK.

0:27:26 > 0:27:31Now then, Hav and Indy, you are our low scorers, so you will go first.

0:27:32 > 0:27:34Yeah, there's only a couple really sort of jump out.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37There's quite an obvious one there,

0:27:37 > 0:27:40but I think we're going to go for C and say Zurich.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42Zurich, say Hav and Indy. Zurich.

0:27:42 > 0:27:43Now then, Tahir and Haluk.

0:27:43 > 0:27:46That board is all yours. Do you want to talk us through it?

0:27:46 > 0:27:48OK, so E is Hong Kong.

0:27:48 > 0:27:49- D...- Shanghai.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51- Shanghai.- Maybe.

0:27:51 > 0:27:53Or... It's not Seoul, is it?

0:27:53 > 0:27:54- No, it's Shanghai. - Oh, Seoul in Korea?

0:27:54 > 0:27:56- Maybe.- Yeah.- I'm pretty sure...

0:27:56 > 0:27:58That's Paris. And is that Calais?

0:27:58 > 0:28:00- No, Copenhagen.- Oh, Copenhagen. Oh, OK.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Right, so, the second best I would say is Copenhagen. Yeah?

0:28:03 > 0:28:06- Are you sure it's Copenhagen? - Well, I'm pretty confident.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08- S could be...- Yeah, but we're not sure on S.

0:28:08 > 0:28:11- Do you want to get another wrong answer?- Let's do it.

0:28:11 > 0:28:12- OK. A...- I tell you what,

0:28:12 > 0:28:15anyone switching on now just knows for a fact that you are brothers,

0:28:15 > 0:28:16just so you know.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18It's all love, it's all love. We're going to...

0:28:18 > 0:28:20- Yeah?- Yeah, yeah. OK, fine.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22He's trusting me. A, Copenhagen.

0:28:22 > 0:28:26OK, Copenhagen, Copenhagen say Tahir and Haluk.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29And we have Hav and Indy saying Zurich.

0:28:29 > 0:28:33So, in the order they were given, Zurich for C, say Hav and Indy.

0:28:33 > 0:28:35Let's see how many of our 100 people got that.

0:28:38 > 0:28:39It's right.

0:28:42 > 0:28:4440.

0:28:44 > 0:28:4640 for Zurich.

0:28:48 > 0:28:51Tahir and Haluk, meanwhile, have gone for Copenhagen for A.

0:28:51 > 0:28:55Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many of our 100 people said it

0:28:55 > 0:28:57and let's see which of the brothers was right.

0:28:57 > 0:28:58LAUGHTER

0:29:01 > 0:29:03It's right.

0:29:03 > 0:29:05It's got to beat 40.

0:29:05 > 0:29:06Which it does.

0:29:07 > 0:29:0926 for Copenhagen.

0:29:09 > 0:29:11APPLAUSE Very well done indeed.

0:29:11 > 0:29:14Which means, after one question, Tahir and Haluk, you are up 1-0.

0:29:14 > 0:29:16Yeah, well played. Some great older brother work there, Tahir.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18We're still equals, still equals.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. - I still disagree.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22Now, let's fill in the rest of these, shall we?

0:29:22 > 0:29:24B, of course, is Paris.

0:29:25 > 0:29:28Only 70 points for that, despite the fact the Eiffel Tower is there.

0:29:28 > 0:29:30- Really?- It's in the background, I suppose.

0:29:30 > 0:29:34I suppose! Now, D, which I originally thought was Seattle.

0:29:34 > 0:29:37- That's exactly what I thought. - You originally thought was Shanghai.

0:29:37 > 0:29:39Your second guess was right. Seoul in South Korea.

0:29:39 > 0:29:41Best answer on the board, would have scored you two.

0:29:41 > 0:29:42Look at that. I knew I was right!

0:29:42 > 0:29:44- Sorry. - And E is Hong Kong, of course.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46What do you think that scored?

0:29:47 > 0:29:49- 94?- Yes, well done!

0:29:49 > 0:29:53- How do you do it? That's very impressive.- I don't know, amazing.

0:29:53 > 0:29:55Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:29:55 > 0:29:56Here comes your second question.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59Hav and Indy, you have to win this one to stay in the game.

0:29:59 > 0:30:02But Tahir and Haluk will answer it first.

0:30:02 > 0:30:05Best of luck with that. Our second question today is all about...

0:30:07 > 0:30:10- Richard.- Yeah, just five clues to facts about school.

0:30:11 > 0:30:15- There we are.- Let's reveal our five clues and here they come.

0:30:16 > 0:30:17We have got...

0:30:38 > 0:30:40I'll read those all again.

0:31:01 > 0:31:02Tahir and Haluk will go first.

0:31:02 > 0:31:04So, we're both in agreement that we're not sure.

0:31:04 > 0:31:06It's going to be a quick one. We don't know any of them,

0:31:06 > 0:31:09- apart from the second one. - And what we think the second one is.

0:31:09 > 0:31:10Yeah, we're, like, 20% sure.

0:31:10 > 0:31:14So we're is going to say the magical school whose motto translates

0:31:14 > 0:31:16as, "Never tickle a sleeping dragon,"

0:31:16 > 0:31:18as fun as that sounds, is Hogwarts.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20Hogwarts, say Tahir and Haluk.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22Now, then, Hav and Indy, it's over to you.

0:31:22 > 0:31:26- Talk us through that board. - Yeah, we're really not sure either.

0:31:26 > 0:31:28We were pretty pleased when we saw school,

0:31:28 > 0:31:31but it wasn't the sort of stuff that Indy was familiar with.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34So probably going to have to go for decade the Education Act

0:31:34 > 0:31:36gave free secondary education...

0:31:38 > 0:31:39'30s?

0:31:39 > 0:31:42- Yeah, go for it. Let's go for it. - We'll say the '30s, 1930s.

0:31:42 > 0:31:43The 1930s.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45So, we have Hogwarts and we have the 1930s.

0:31:45 > 0:31:49Tahir and Haluk have gone for Hogwarts

0:31:49 > 0:31:51for that sleeping dragon motto.

0:31:51 > 0:31:54Let's see how many of our 100 people said Hogwarts.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59It's right.

0:32:02 > 0:32:0350.

0:32:03 > 0:32:04APPLAUSE

0:32:07 > 0:32:1050. Now, Hav and Indy have taken a punt

0:32:10 > 0:32:13on the decade of the Education Act.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16Let's see how many of our 100 people said the 1930s.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18Let's see if it's right.

0:32:20 > 0:32:21Oh!

0:32:21 > 0:32:22Oh, bad luck.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24I mean, sounded like a good guess to me.

0:32:24 > 0:32:26I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, which means,

0:32:26 > 0:32:29very well done indeed, Tahir and Haluk, after only two questions,

0:32:29 > 0:32:31you are straight through to the final 2-0.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34Yeah, it actually came about very, very close

0:32:34 > 0:32:36to the setting up of the NHS, as well.

0:32:36 > 0:32:40It from the Education Act of 1944, the Butler Act, so 1940s.

0:32:40 > 0:32:41I thought you were right.

0:32:41 > 0:32:44That would have scored you 12 points.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46The Merseyside producer, do you know that one?

0:32:47 > 0:32:49- Phil Redmond, is it? - Yeah, Phil Redmond, yeah.

0:32:49 > 0:32:51Did Grange Hill, Hollyoaks, Brookside.

0:32:51 > 0:32:5416 points. The heroine in Malory Towers?

0:32:54 > 0:32:56I didn't know this one. Darrell Rivers.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58I know lots of people will have known that at home.

0:32:58 > 0:33:00Four points for that. Well done if you said it.

0:33:00 > 0:33:03- And the Scottish boarding school? - Gordonstoun.- Gordonstoun. Yeah.

0:33:03 > 0:33:06- And that would have scored 35. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:33:06 > 0:33:09So the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round,

0:33:09 > 0:33:11Hav and Indy, low scorers all the way through the show,

0:33:11 > 0:33:13I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to you.

0:33:13 > 0:33:14We'll see you again next time.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16You'll do just as well, if not one step better.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19But, in the meantime, thanks very much indeed. Hav and Indy.

0:33:19 > 0:33:20APPLAUSE

0:33:20 > 0:33:22All the best.

0:33:22 > 0:33:25But for Tahir and Haluk, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:33:28 > 0:33:30Congratulations, Tahir and Haluk,

0:33:30 > 0:33:32you have fought off all the competition

0:33:32 > 0:33:35and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:33:40 > 0:33:43You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot

0:33:43 > 0:33:47and at the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £7,250.

0:33:47 > 0:33:48APPLAUSE

0:33:48 > 0:33:50Woo!

0:33:51 > 0:33:53Well, that was worth waiting for, wasn't it?

0:33:53 > 0:33:56Last time you came through to the head-to-head

0:33:56 > 0:33:58and didn't quite make it through to the final.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01And here you are, finally coming through 2-0, which is fantastic.

0:34:01 > 0:34:04- No pressure!- It depends on what categories come up

0:34:04 > 0:34:06on the board. What would you like to see come up today?

0:34:06 > 0:34:07- Anything...- Football.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09Vintage football, retro football.

0:34:09 > 0:34:12- Gaming.- Did he mention football?

0:34:12 > 0:34:13We need to see football.

0:34:13 > 0:34:16And, like... It doesn't really come up, but body-building champions.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18Yeah, and '90s hip-hop.

0:34:18 > 0:34:19Till now maybe!

0:34:19 > 0:34:20Maybe we've been waiting.

0:34:20 > 0:34:23- Science, chemistry. - '90s hip-hop, like he said.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26Yeah. Chemistry for him, because I know nothing about chemistry.

0:34:26 > 0:34:27- Chemistry.- I don't know.

0:34:27 > 0:34:29I mean, music. Depends...

0:34:29 > 0:34:31I mean, we've got the Pointless trophy, right?

0:34:31 > 0:34:33- So... It doesn't really matter. - Let's get more!

0:34:33 > 0:34:36Let's see what happens. There might be something on that board

0:34:36 > 0:34:38you like the look of.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40Fingers crossed. An exciting jackpot to be playing for.

0:34:40 > 0:34:43Today's selection reads like this.

0:34:43 > 0:34:44We have got...

0:34:51 > 0:34:54- Sporting siblings could be... - British female solo artists.

0:34:54 > 0:34:56Is that music artists, or is that artists?

0:34:56 > 0:34:58I don't know enough. I don't like that.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00Yeah, let's forget that. Scottish politics, no.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02The closest thing to sport is sporting siblings.

0:35:02 > 0:35:04I have a colleague who's from Iceland.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06That's all I know about Iceland.

0:35:06 > 0:35:08- LAUGHTER - Right, well, OK...

0:35:08 > 0:35:10I don't know enough about politics of other countries,

0:35:10 > 0:35:13- let alone Scotland.- Could be Venus and Serena, something like that.

0:35:13 > 0:35:14It's sporting siblings.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17It makes the most sense. The only thing I know about Iceland...

0:35:17 > 0:35:19- I agree with you. - That's why mums go there.

0:35:19 > 0:35:21- Let's go sporting siblings. - Sporting siblings, I agree!

0:35:21 > 0:35:23- Yes.- Sporting siblings it is.

0:35:23 > 0:35:26I liked it when you said the closest thing to sport is sporting siblings

0:35:26 > 0:35:28and it is... That is sport.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30That is... You can't get closer.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32And you are siblings as well.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34Gents, over £7,000 on this jackpot.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36Very best of luck. Three different questions here,

0:35:36 > 0:35:38all relating in some way to sporting siblings.

0:35:38 > 0:35:40We're looking for any of the following, please.

0:35:40 > 0:35:44We're looking for any cricketer who played in the 2001 Ashes Series

0:35:44 > 0:35:46where Steve and Mark Waugh played for Australia.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48Obviously, we won't accept either of them.

0:35:48 > 0:35:50So anyone who played in that series for either team.

0:35:50 > 0:35:52We are looking for anyone who played England's 1995

0:35:52 > 0:35:55Five Nations winning team. Any of the games.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57Rory and Tony Underwood were in that team.

0:35:57 > 0:35:58Obviously, we won't except them.

0:35:58 > 0:36:01Or we're looking for any boxer fought professionally

0:36:01 > 0:36:03by Michael and Leon Spinks, please.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05So, Ashes cricketers from 2001,

0:36:05 > 0:36:091995 Nations winners for England,

0:36:09 > 0:36:12or any boxers fought by Michael and Leon Spinks.

0:36:12 > 0:36:14Gents, very, very best of luck.

0:36:14 > 0:36:15Thank you very much indeed.

0:36:15 > 0:36:18As always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers

0:36:18 > 0:36:19and all you need to win that jackpot

0:36:19 > 0:36:22is for just one of your answers to be pointless.

0:36:22 > 0:36:24- Are you ready?- Yeah.- Good!

0:36:24 > 0:36:26Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.

0:36:26 > 0:36:27There. Your time starts now.

0:36:27 > 0:36:29Right, OK... Leon Spinks beat Muhammad Ali,

0:36:29 > 0:36:31so that's not very well-known.

0:36:31 > 0:36:32He is the first person to beat Muhammad Ali.

0:36:32 > 0:36:35- Are you sure? - Yeah, 100%.- 100%?- Yeah, yeah.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37- We'll do that, then. - Sparring partner of Muhammad Ali.

0:36:37 > 0:36:40- Are you 100%?- Yeah, like, 1000%. - OK, fine.- Yeah.- 2001 Ashes,

0:36:40 > 0:36:42I think there was a player called Ashley Giles,

0:36:42 > 0:36:43who was a spinner. I think.

0:36:43 > 0:36:45- Ashley Giles?- I used to play a computer game...

0:36:45 > 0:36:48- Wasn't he a footballer?- Ashley... No... I think, Ashley Giles...

0:36:48 > 0:36:50I think he was a cricketer. I think he was a spinner.

0:36:50 > 0:36:53Do we have... Put that in the maybe pile. Five Nations winning team?

0:36:53 > 0:36:56I think back in that time, there was Will Carling.

0:36:56 > 0:36:58It might not be a pointless answer.

0:36:58 > 0:37:00I don't know if he was still playing at that time.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03We should just give three boxers in the heavyweight division.

0:37:03 > 0:37:04It makes the most sense.

0:37:04 > 0:37:07I don't know who fought Leon Spinks.

0:37:07 > 0:37:08Well, we can give logical guesses.

0:37:08 > 0:37:10He was sparring with Muhammad Ali, back in the days?

0:37:10 > 0:37:12No, it's not sparring. He beat Muhammad Ali.

0:37:12 > 0:37:14Yeah, so he was boxing in, what, the era of Ali?

0:37:14 > 0:37:17The '70s. So we can say someone like Joe Frazier.

0:37:17 > 0:37:18- Ten seconds left.- OK.

0:37:18 > 0:37:21Joe Frazier and George Foreman... He didn't beat George Foreman.

0:37:21 > 0:37:23What about the guy who knocked Muhammad Ali down? Henry Cooper?

0:37:23 > 0:37:25- Was his name Henry Cooper? - People like that, yeah.

0:37:25 > 0:37:27- Yeah?- It makes more sense.

0:37:27 > 0:37:29- OK, so who do I say?- OK, that, I'm afraid, is your minute up.

0:37:29 > 0:37:31Never long enough, that minute, I'm sorry.

0:37:31 > 0:37:34What answers would you like to give me and in which category?

0:37:34 > 0:37:36- What are we doing? Boxers?- We kind of have to.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38All right, so we'll go with boxers...

0:37:38 > 0:37:40Do you want to do the cricketers as well?

0:37:40 > 0:37:42- Do one of the cricketers.- I feel 60% with Ashley Giles.- Yeah, do it.

0:37:42 > 0:37:46OK, so we're going to say Ashley Giles for cricketers.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48We're going to say... You said Muhammad Ali.

0:37:48 > 0:37:51It's a known thing, though. Let's say Muhammad Ali.

0:37:51 > 0:37:52- Muhammad Ali.- Muhammad Ali.

0:37:52 > 0:37:56And... Shall we go for another boxer that Ali fought?

0:37:56 > 0:37:58Who was that boxer you just said?

0:37:58 > 0:38:00What, Henry Cooper? I think his name's Henry Cooper.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03- OK. Henry Cooper.- And Henry Cooper. OK, three answers there.

0:38:03 > 0:38:06Of those, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:06 > 0:38:08- Henry Cooper, probably. - Henry Cooper goes last.

0:38:08 > 0:38:09Least likely to be pointless?

0:38:09 > 0:38:11- Muhammad Ali.- Muhammad Ali. - Muhammad Ali.

0:38:11 > 0:38:14We'll put the King of Spin in the middle.

0:38:14 > 0:38:17OK, well, let's put those answers up on the board in that order then

0:38:17 > 0:38:19and here they are. We have got...

0:38:23 > 0:38:25Three good answers on the board there.

0:38:25 > 0:38:26Now, one of those, at least,

0:38:26 > 0:38:29might turn out to be pointless and might win you that jackpot.

0:38:29 > 0:38:33We're looking at a jackpot of £7,250. That's a decent jackpot.

0:38:33 > 0:38:36What would you like to do with that if you won it, Tahir?

0:38:36 > 0:38:38As a student, I'd put it straight into the savings.

0:38:38 > 0:38:40Take a chunk out, and go to Vegas.

0:38:42 > 0:38:44Very good. Haluk, how about you?

0:38:44 > 0:38:47I always remain that I'd say I would give some to my mum.

0:38:47 > 0:38:50Well, most to my mum, actually, to be honest.

0:38:50 > 0:38:51She deserves it, so, why not?

0:38:51 > 0:38:53Oh, well, that's nice.

0:38:53 > 0:38:56Tahir, do you want to revise your Vegas trip?

0:38:56 > 0:38:58Er... I'll take my mum to Vegas.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01There we go, excellent. OK, well, very best of luck.

0:39:01 > 0:39:03Three good answers, as I say.

0:39:03 > 0:39:05Your first answer was Muhammad Ali.

0:39:05 > 0:39:07In this case, we were looking for any boxer

0:39:07 > 0:39:09fought by Michael or Leon Spinks.

0:39:09 > 0:39:12If this is pointless, it will win you £7,250.

0:39:12 > 0:39:14Let's see how many of our 100 people said Muhammad Ali.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20It's right.

0:39:20 > 0:39:22It is a correct answer. Now, if this goes all the way down to 0,

0:39:22 > 0:39:25you will leave here with £7,250.

0:39:25 > 0:39:27Muhammad Ali now takes us down through the twenties...

0:39:27 > 0:39:30Ooh... 26. OK, 26, not bad.

0:39:30 > 0:39:31APPLAUSE

0:39:31 > 0:39:33It's not a bad score.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36Annoyingly, not a pointless score,

0:39:36 > 0:39:38so we move onto your next answer which is Ashley Giles.

0:39:38 > 0:39:41In this case, we were looking for any cricketer

0:39:41 > 0:39:43in the 2001 Ashes Series.

0:39:43 > 0:39:46If Ashley Giles is pointless, you leave here with £7,250.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49Let's see how many of our 100 people said it, Ashley Giles.

0:39:53 > 0:39:57It's right. It was him. Muhammad Ali took us all the way down to 26.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00Ashley Giles now takes us down through the 30s, into the 20s,

0:40:00 > 0:40:01passing 26 comfortably.

0:40:01 > 0:40:03Down we go into single figures.

0:40:03 > 0:40:06We're still going down. Ashley Giles taking us right the way down to 1.

0:40:06 > 0:40:07AUDIENCE GASPS

0:40:07 > 0:40:08APPLAUSE

0:40:12 > 0:40:17- Ah!- Thought so.- OK...

0:40:17 > 0:40:19Can we have a recount? Can we have a recount?

0:40:19 > 0:40:21- Yeah...- Is that one person here? - Yeah.

0:40:21 > 0:40:23LAUGHTER

0:40:23 > 0:40:27One person remembered Ashley Giles from that squad.

0:40:27 > 0:40:28- Was it you?- Of course it wasn't me!

0:40:30 > 0:40:32It comes down to your third and final answer.

0:40:32 > 0:40:34Henry Cooper.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37Again, we were looking for any boxer who was fought by

0:40:37 > 0:40:39Michael or Leon Spinks.

0:40:39 > 0:40:43Henry Cooper has to be right and it has to be pointless for you to win,

0:40:43 > 0:40:45but if you do win, it's £7,250.

0:40:45 > 0:40:47How many people said Henry Cooper? Is it pointless?

0:40:50 > 0:40:52Oh, no!

0:40:52 > 0:40:53AUDIENCE GROANS

0:40:53 > 0:40:54APPLAUSE

0:40:56 > 0:40:59Well, that was a very, very exciting final round.

0:40:59 > 0:41:04Ashley Giles brought us that close to a really exciting jackpot win,

0:41:04 > 0:41:06but I'm afraid you just didn't manage to find

0:41:06 > 0:41:08that all-important pointless answer.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10You were off it by one point.

0:41:10 > 0:41:13That means you don't win today's jackpot of £7,250.

0:41:13 > 0:41:14That rolls over onto next show.

0:41:14 > 0:41:16But it's been great having you here and, actually,

0:41:16 > 0:41:19brilliant performance right across the show.

0:41:19 > 0:41:212-0 in the head-to-head. No arguing with that.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23Really strong and a Pointless trophy each

0:41:23 > 0:41:25to take home, so very, very well done, Tahir and Haluk.

0:41:30 > 0:41:31Yeah, unlucky, guys.

0:41:31 > 0:41:34The boxing category is far and away the hardest one.

0:41:34 > 0:41:36The cricket and rugby, there are so

0:41:36 > 0:41:37many good pointless answers out there

0:41:37 > 0:41:39that I know people at home will have got.

0:41:39 > 0:41:43Let's take a look at some of them. Those Ashes cricketers first.

0:41:43 > 0:41:44Glenn McGrath is a pointless answer.

0:41:44 > 0:41:46Mark Ramprakash, Nasser Hussain,

0:41:46 > 0:41:49Phil Tufnell, Alec Stewart, Alex Tudor,

0:41:49 > 0:41:51Andy Caddick, Brett Lee, Damien Martyn,

0:41:51 > 0:41:53Dominic Cork, Graham Thorpe,

0:41:53 > 0:41:56Jason Gillespie, Justin Langer, Marcus Trescothick, Mark Butcher,

0:41:56 > 0:42:00Matthew Hayden, Michael Slater, Robert Croft, Simon Katich,

0:42:00 > 0:42:01they're all pointless answers.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03So very well done if you said one of those.

0:42:03 > 0:42:06The Five Nations winning team.

0:42:08 > 0:42:10Mike Catt, Kyran Bracken, Jason Leonard, Graham Rowntree

0:42:10 > 0:42:13Again, big names here. Ben Clarke, Dean Richards, Martin Bayfield,

0:42:13 > 0:42:16Steve Ojomoh, Tim Rodber, and Victor Ubogu.

0:42:16 > 0:42:18All of those are pointless answers.

0:42:18 > 0:42:19Boxers, much harder. One very big

0:42:19 > 0:42:22- name here that some people I know would have got.- Joe Frazier?

0:42:22 > 0:42:25Not Joe Frazier. Larry Holmes, lots of people might have got.

0:42:25 > 0:42:29Gerry Cooney as well. Dwight Muhammad Qawi, they both fought him.

0:42:29 > 0:42:30Steffen Tangstad.

0:42:30 > 0:42:34Everybody was a pointless answer there apart from Ali, Tyson,

0:42:34 > 0:42:36Shane Sutcliffe, Marvin Johnson, and Gerrie Coetzee.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38Everyone else was a pointless answer.

0:42:38 > 0:42:40Very well done if you got any of those at home.

0:42:40 > 0:42:43Gents, you've been terrific for two shows and one point away.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45- One point away.- Yeah, one point.

0:42:45 > 0:42:46Thanks very much indeed, Richard,

0:42:46 > 0:42:48and thanks very much, Tahir and Haluk.

0:42:48 > 0:42:50Very sadly, they didn't win our jackpot today,

0:42:50 > 0:42:52which means it rolls over onto the next show

0:42:52 > 0:42:55when we will be playing for £8,250.

0:42:55 > 0:42:56Woo!

0:42:56 > 0:42:58APPLAUSE

0:42:58 > 0:43:00Join us then to see if someone can win it.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:02 > 0:43:04And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
