0:00:20 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong
0:00:23 > 0:00:26and welcome to Pointless, the show where the lowest scorers
0:00:26 > 0:00:28are the biggest winners. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34And couple number one.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Hi, I'm Hav, and this is my friend, Indy.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38We're both from Gravesend in Kent.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41- Couple number two. - Hello, my name's Gwen.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43This is my friend John and we're from North Wales.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Couple number three.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48Hi, I'm Amy. I'm from Newark and I'm here today with my mum, Julie,
0:00:48 > 0:00:50who's from Lincolnshire.
0:00:50 > 0:00:51And, finally, couple number four.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54I'm Roly and this is Duggan, we're from Newcastle
0:00:54 > 0:00:56and we've remained friends for the last 15 years.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58See what happens today!
0:00:58 > 0:00:59And these are today's contestants.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Thank you very much indeed. A very warm welcome to each one of you.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Great to have you here. We'll get a chance to chat to you
0:01:07 > 0:01:09throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13They say a fool and his money are soon parted.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Well, today, he's hoping to reunite them.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20Hiya. Hey, everybody. Hiya!
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Good day to you.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25- And to you. - What a show we had last time!
0:01:25 > 0:01:27It was an absolute cracker, wasn't it?
0:01:27 > 0:01:28John and Gwen were with us,
0:01:28 > 0:01:30got knocked out in that first round about modern art.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33There was an awful lot of wrong answers. Joined the 200 Club.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36So fingers crossed we don't see the 400 Club today.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39And then, Hav and Indy got through to the head-to-head
0:01:39 > 0:01:44against Tahir and Haluk. And a £7,250 jackpot was up for grabs.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46And you got knocked out by Tahir and Haluk.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48They got through to the final round.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50They were siblings, squabbling siblings, I'm going to say.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- That's fair enough.- In a loving way. - They had a number of disagreements.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56But then, the category Sporting Siblings came up.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Perfect for them. Gave us a couple of boxing answers,
0:01:58 > 0:02:00which went for nothing.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03They took one punt on a cricketing answer.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Went for Ashley Giles, for £7,250.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08One point.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10One point right at the end.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13It was a terrific end to a terrific show.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15But it means that jackpot is getting bigger and bigger.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17It's getting bigger, I know.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21So, as the man said, Tahir and Haluk didn't win the jackpot.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23That means we add another £1,000 to it.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24So it's going to be even bigger.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28Today's jackpot starts off at £8,250.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33There we are. Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40As ever, the pair with the highest score
0:02:40 > 0:02:42at the end of each round will be eliminated.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44So keep your scores nice and low, if you possibly can.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Our first category this afternoon is...
0:02:49 > 0:02:53Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second?
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Whoever's going first, please, step up to the podium.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01OK. And the question concerns...
0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Richard?- On each board we're going to give you seven clues.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12The answers to each of the clues appeared on the BFI's list
0:03:12 > 0:03:15of the Greatest Films Of All Time that they published in 2016.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17So seven on the first board, seven on the second board,
0:03:17 > 0:03:1914 films in all to guess at home. Good luck.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21Thank you very much indeed. OK, let's reveal
0:03:21 > 0:03:24our first board of clues. Here they come. Seven of them.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27And we have got...
0:04:02 > 0:04:04I'm going to read those all again.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Now then, Hav, welcome back.
0:04:39 > 0:04:43Now, you were our low scorers going into the head-to-head round.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Then you were seen off in the head-to-head.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49So you've got to be hoping to take it one step further this time.
0:04:49 > 0:04:50Remind us what you do, Hav.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53At the minute, I'm on an internship at an oil and gas company
0:04:53 > 0:04:55but it's an internship in the middle of my degree,
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- where I'm doing chemical engineering at Surrey.- I see.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01So you go back to Surrey for what, one more final year?
0:05:01 > 0:05:02- Yeah, I do my final year.- Very good.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05And what sort of things do you like getting up to
0:05:05 > 0:05:08- when not doing gas and oil? - I play lacrosse at uni.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10That's a big part of what I do.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12I'm also part of the Chemical Engineering Society.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15We don't just sit around and talk about chemical engineering,
0:05:15 > 0:05:18it's all mostly socials, a lot of bar crawls, that kind of thing.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Chemical Engineering Society at Surrey.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22- These guys sound crazy.- They do!
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- It's like carnage, right?- Yeah.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27It's like the Fall of Rome down in Surrey, now.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28Yeah! Very good.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Well, Hav, let's look at these films.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32What would you like to go for?
0:05:33 > 0:05:36There's... Right, I've got an idea on a few.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39I'm trying to think which one will be the lowest scoring.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41I think I'm going to go with the Francis Ford Coppola film
0:05:41 > 0:05:44set during the Vietnam War. Er, Apocalypse Now.
0:05:44 > 0:05:45Apocalypse Now, says Hav.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Let's see how many of our 100 people said Apocalypse Now.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53It's right.
0:05:56 > 0:05:5824.
0:05:59 > 0:06:0224 for Apocalypse Now, for Hav.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04It was originally going to be directed by George Lucas.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07He wanted to shoot it while the Vietnam War was still raging,
0:06:07 > 0:06:08sort of documentary style.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Whoa! And then suddenly found he couldn't get any actors.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14- Yes, weird that, isn't it?- Strange.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Gwen, welcome back to Pointless.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Lovely to have you with us again. Now, last time, Gwen,
0:06:20 > 0:06:23- we said goodbye to you far too soon. - Yes.- We will have no more of that.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- OK.- No more of that. Remind us what you do, Gwen.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29I'm retired. I used to be a teacher of hearing-impaired children.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33And you are retired and having a lovely time.
0:06:33 > 0:06:34Having a wonderful time. Yes.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37How do you and John know each other? Are you neighbours up in Wales?
0:06:37 > 0:06:41I used to be a support teacher with John when he was at school.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Ah! So, whose idea was it to come on, then?
0:06:44 > 0:06:45It was my idea.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48John, he said, "Right, Gwen, you're coming with me."
0:06:48 > 0:06:50- Basically.- Very good indeed. Now, Gwen, I hope this round
0:06:50 > 0:06:52is a bit more fun for you than that art round.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55I think it's a little bit better, yes, thank you.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Let's have a lovely, low-scoring answer, Gwen.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59I'm going to go for the Orson Welles one
0:06:59 > 0:07:01and I'm going to go Citizen Kane.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Citizen Kane, says Gwen.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05Let's see how many of our 100 people said Citizen Kane.
0:07:08 > 0:07:09It's right.
0:07:12 > 0:07:1447. Not bad.
0:07:16 > 0:07:17Not bad.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21There is genuinely at one point in Citizen Kane, if you watch it,
0:07:21 > 0:07:24they use back projections from other films,
0:07:24 > 0:07:26which they used to do in those days to cut down on costs.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28They used one that they think is from King Kong.
0:07:28 > 0:07:32You can see pterodactyls, very, very, very faintly
0:07:32 > 0:07:35in the background in Citizen Kane. They're not supposed to be there.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38That's hilarious! Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Now, Amy, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here. From Newark?
0:07:41 > 0:07:44- Yes.- What do you do in Newark?
0:07:44 > 0:07:47I work in communications for a wildlife charity.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- That's nice.- Kind of brochures, magazines, information boards,
0:07:50 > 0:07:52- that kind of thing.- Very good.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55The only thing I know about Newark is when you're driving down the A1,
0:07:55 > 0:07:58which I do a lot, the signs to Newark start very early on.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00You pass Newark.
0:08:00 > 0:08:0240 minutes later, you come to a sign where there's a roundabout
0:08:02 > 0:08:04and it says, you can go back to Newark.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06- Yep.- It's extraordinary!
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Whoever's in charge of the signing in Newark, well done.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- Very keen for you to visit. - They are, they are.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12I must go. It's lovely, isn't it, Newark?
0:08:12 > 0:08:15- It's really nice.- Yeah. Anyway, Amy, there you are.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18What would you like to go for on our board?
0:08:18 > 0:08:21- How are you finding it? - There are a couple I think I know.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23It's working out which are going to be the lowest.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Er, I think I'll go for the Hitchcock film,
0:08:27 > 0:08:29- which I think is Vertigo. - Vertigo, says Amy.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Let's see how many of our 100 people said Vertigo.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35It's right.
0:08:37 > 0:08:38Look at that! 90 for Vertigo.
0:08:40 > 0:08:41Appropriately high.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46I think a big scorer there because you don't need to know the film,
0:08:46 > 0:08:49because we've given an extra clue there in the question.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Based on a French novel, Vertigo.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Called From Among The Dead, or whatever that is in French.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58- Entre Les Morts. Who knows?- Amonge Les Morts.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02- Oui.- Amonge...Les Dead.- Yeah.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06- By Jean-Pierre...- French.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10- I think it's Jean-Pierre Le French. - Yes.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Thank you very much indeed. Now, Roly.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14Welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17That's another great beard. We've had some good beards.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19There's a lot of good coverage there.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Lot of good coverage. That is enviable coverage.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24- Thank you very much. - Roly, what do you do?
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Er, I work in digital advertising in London.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Is that sort of app-based?
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Yeah, I work in the world of online dating, actually.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- For one of the big companies in that space.- Oh, I see.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Interesting. Er, Roly, what are your interests?
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Erm, sort of quite into film actually.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Music, sport.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45So I'm hoping that we get lots of questions around those areas.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48OK. Well, we've certainly given you some questions in this round
0:09:48 > 0:09:50around that area. Do you want to fill in all these blanks for us?
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Yeah. I don't know the top one.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56The Gene Kelly one is Singing In The Rain.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59And the Marilyn Monroe one is Some Like It Hot.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01I don't know the bottom one.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04If I was guessing, I might say The Getaway.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07I'm going to go with Some Like It Hot.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Some Like It Hot, says Roly. Excellent film.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Let's see how many of our 100 people said Some Like It Hot.
0:10:16 > 0:10:17It's right.
0:10:18 > 0:10:2071 for Some Like It Hot.
0:10:20 > 0:10:21That's a high score.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27Yeah, that was also number one in the American Film Institute's
0:10:27 > 0:10:29funniest movies of all time, Some Like It Hot.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32- It kind of is funny, but it's not a proper comedy.- No.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Shall we go through the rest of the board?
0:10:34 > 0:10:36- Let's do that. - Do you know the Russian one?
0:10:36 > 0:10:38- Battleship Potemkin. - It is Battleship Potemkin.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40That would have scored you ten points.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43You're quite right about Singing In The Rain.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45That would have scored 73. The best answer on the board
0:10:45 > 0:10:47is the Buster Keaton movie.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49- It is The General. - Ah, The General!
0:10:49 > 0:10:52It would have scored you seven points. Well done if you said that.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54Thank you, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57Let's take a look at those scores. 24. Look at that! Hav and Indy.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59Once again our low-scoring supremos there.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02We travel up from 24 to 47, where we find Gwen and John.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06Then up to 71, where we find Roly and Duggan and then up to 90,
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Amy and Julie. Yes, that was a punishingly
0:11:08 > 0:11:09high score there, Amy, I'm afraid.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12So, Julie, you have a little bit of a job to do in the next pass.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15So good luck with that, I hope you like the board.
0:11:15 > 0:11:16We're going to come back down the line now.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Can the second players, please, step up to the podium?
0:11:21 > 0:11:24OK. Let's put seven more clues up on the board and here they are.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26We have got...
0:12:03 > 0:12:04I'll read those all again.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38- Duggan, welcome to Pointless.- Hello. - Good to have you here.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- What do you do, Duggan? - I'm a drummer.
0:12:40 > 0:12:44A drummer for hire? A drummer in a band?
0:12:44 > 0:12:45Whatever you want. Absolutely anything.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48- Session drumming? - Weddings. Anniversaries.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51I thought you were going to say Wednesday, I can't do,
0:12:51 > 0:12:53- but any other day. - I can't actually do Wednesdays.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Can't do Wednesday, no. Duggan, you're not the high scorers
0:12:55 > 0:12:57but you're quite near the high scorers.
0:12:57 > 0:12:58We need a low score from you.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01Well, I'm going to go for one for two reasons.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04If it's right, it will possibly be a low score,
0:13:04 > 0:13:07plus it is actually the name of the band that I'm in.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11- What do you know?- What about that?
0:13:11 > 0:13:14This is if it's right. I'm going to look pretty stupid if it's wrong.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17I'm going to say right now there are some bad names for bands up there.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19I didn't choose the name and I don't like the name, to be fair.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22But it's a great film, actually, if it's the one I'm thinking of.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25So the David Lynch one, Mulholland Drive.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Mulholland Drive, of all those things,
0:13:27 > 0:13:29that's the best name for a band, I think, on that board.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32- Mulholland Drive...- Yeah. - David Lynch, Naomi Watts.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35There's your red line. You get below that, you're through to Round Two.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Let's see how many of our 100 people said Mulholland Drive.
0:13:44 > 0:13:49Look at that! Through you go, just! You needed 18, you got 15.
0:13:49 > 0:13:5186 is your total. You're in Round Two.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55Yeah, very well played, Duggan. That's very fortuitous, wasn't it?
0:13:55 > 0:13:59I found it impenetrable, I have to say, but you know, what do I know?
0:13:59 > 0:14:02It's quite long. I quite enjoyed it, though.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Yeah, I prefer Ace Venture Pet Detective,
0:14:04 > 0:14:06which was not on the list.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08- It's not on the list. - That's annoying.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now, Julie, welcome.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Good to have you here. What do you do, Julie?
0:14:14 > 0:14:17I have a bed-and-breakfast and I keep a few chickens
0:14:17 > 0:14:19and so I feed the eggs to the guests.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21I was going to say, that's it.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Presumably the chickens then eat some of the leftovers
0:14:23 > 0:14:25- the guests don't eat. - Absolutely, yes!
0:14:25 > 0:14:28I bet every plate goes back to the kitchen clean,
0:14:28 > 0:14:31but if they've had thirds, let's say, and they didn't quite finish...
0:14:31 > 0:14:35So it's quite a nice, virtuous circle there.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Very nice. How many hens have you got?
0:14:37 > 0:14:40At the moment, we've got 11.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Oh, that's good. Do they mostly lay every day?
0:14:43 > 0:14:46- Pretty much every day, yeah. - If you didn't have people staying,
0:14:46 > 0:14:48it's quite an egg mountain that starts to build up.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52We would sell a few and sometimes the guests do buy some to take home.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56Very nice. Or they just have to have massive omelettes for breakfast.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Now, Julie, there you are on 90.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00You're the high scorers at the moment, so we need a low score.
0:15:00 > 0:15:01What would you like to go for?
0:15:01 > 0:15:03Well, sadly, this isn't the best category.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09And all the ones I know, I think, are going to be high, so, again,
0:15:09 > 0:15:13like Amy, a choice of which is the lowest of the high scorers.
0:15:15 > 0:15:20I think I shall have to join Amy with another Hitchcock film
0:15:20 > 0:15:24and go for the bottom one and say Psycho, although I'm sure it's high.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Psycho, says Julie. Let's see.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28No red line for you as you're the high scorers.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Let's see how far down the column we get with Psycho.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38That's another high score.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Yeah. That takes your total up to 181.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44Yeah, well, you scored one more, which is very, very impressive.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46- Good stuff.- Thanks very much, Richard.
0:15:46 > 0:15:47John, welcome back.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Remind us what you do, John.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52- I'm a farmer.- A farmer in Anglesey.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54- Yes.- A beef and sheep farmer.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57- Yes.- Ah!- Ah.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59That's nice...
0:15:59 > 0:16:03Oh! Some of the sheep are sort of upland sheep, I'm guessing.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05You stride out with a sheep.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09You've got beautiful views, reaching out miles and miles around.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13- Anglesey's quite flat, so... - Ah, yeah. OK.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15- I just don't know what I'm talking about.- I'd be fine.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- I'd have beautiful views. - Quite flat.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20I'd be the tallest thing for many miles around.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22You wouldn't want to be out there in a storm, Richard.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25In lightning, no, I'd be a very dangerous person to be around.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27You mustn't shelter under me during lightning.
0:16:27 > 0:16:28John, what would you like to go for?
0:16:28 > 0:16:31The good news is you're through to Round Two, whatever you score.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35I was lucky, they stole my answer and I literally have no idea
0:16:35 > 0:16:36of the rest of them. So...
0:16:38 > 0:16:40..I can't guess, sorry.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43Do you want to just make something up for one of them?
0:16:44 > 0:16:47I'll go the gangster film and...
0:16:47 > 0:16:48..Tobacco Gangs.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Tobacco Gangs.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52Let's see, Tobacco Gangs.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55You've got the initials right. There's no line for you
0:16:55 > 0:16:57because you're already through, doesn't matter.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59How many of our 100 people said Tobacco Gangs?
0:17:03 > 0:17:04Not on that date.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07No. Not the Tobacco Gangs, I'm afraid.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09That scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 147,
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- but you're through anyway. - I'd watch that film.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13- Tobacco Gangs, definitely.- Yeah.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15I think so.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Thank you very much, Richard. Now, Indy.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Welcome back. Remind us what you do, Indy?
0:17:21 > 0:17:22Currently between jobs at the moment,
0:17:22 > 0:17:23but I was an English teacher.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26You were an English teacher and you want to get a job in publishing?
0:17:26 > 0:17:27- Yeah, I do.- Very good.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30So are you doing fun things with the interim while you're waiting
0:17:30 > 0:17:32for the next chapter of your life?
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Yeah, keeping busy.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36Reading, writing, painting, stuff.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38You're not going to go off and travel,
0:17:38 > 0:17:40find yourself on the other side of the world?
0:17:40 > 0:17:43- Not until I get income, no! - Ah, yes, I see what you mean.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48Or win the jackpot, and off you go.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Fabulous. Now, you're through.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53Doesn't matter what you score. Would you like to take us
0:17:53 > 0:17:55through this board and fill in all our blanks for us, please?
0:17:55 > 0:17:57I did some film studies at uni,
0:17:57 > 0:17:59so it's annoying me I don't know all of them.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03But, Seven Samurai is the second one down.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06I really can't remember the Charlie Chaplin one.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Then Taxi Driver and The Godfather.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11I think I'll go with Seven Samurai.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14OK, Seven Samurai, says Indy. No red line. You're already through.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Let's see how many of our 100 people said Seven Samurai.
0:18:20 > 0:18:21It's right.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26It's another great answer for that first podium.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Down to 12, very well done indeed.
0:18:28 > 0:18:3336 is your total, the lowest score by a long way.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35Yeah, well played. Directed by Akira Kurosawa,
0:18:35 > 0:18:38the first Japanese director to get kind of international recognition.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40They remade it as The Magnificent Seven,
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Seven Samurai, and then they remade The Magnificent Seven
0:18:42 > 0:18:45as The Magnificent Seven as well.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49Now, the civil war veteran seeks his niece
0:18:49 > 0:18:52is the John Ford movie, The Searchers.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54That would have scored you five points.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57The Charlie Chaplin movie is City Lights.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Would have scored you six points.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01So I did wonder, for a moment, Duggan,
0:19:01 > 0:19:04if you were the drummer in The Searchers.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Robert De Niro, you're quite right, Taxi Driver.
0:19:09 > 0:19:13Would have scored 34 and you're also right about The Godfather.
0:19:13 > 0:19:14That would have scored 73.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17So, the best answer on the board is The Searchers.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Well done if you said that, or City Lights, both very good answers.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24We're at the end of our first round and the pair we are sending home
0:19:24 > 0:19:26with a high score of 181, Julie and Amy, I'm so sorry.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- Not your round, I think it's fair to say.- No.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Not your round. Anyway, we'll see you again next time
0:19:31 > 0:19:34when I hope there'll be a slightly more fortuitous category for you.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Meantime, thanks very much indeed, Julie and Amy.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42But for the remaining three players, it's now time for Round Two.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Well done, everyone. We've made it through to Round Two.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Great to have you all with us. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57Our category for Round Two this afternoon is Sport.
0:19:57 > 0:19:58Can you all decide in your pairs
0:19:58 > 0:20:01who's going to go first and who's going to go second?
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Whoever's going first, please, step up to the podium.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08OK. Let's find out what the question is.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:20:11 > 0:20:15to name as many Team GB gold medallists
0:20:15 > 0:20:18at Rio 2016 as they could.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21- Ooh, that's fun, Richard. - Yes, a nice question.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23I've been waiting for this one to crop up.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25We're looking for the name of anybody who received at least
0:20:25 > 0:20:28one gold medal at the Rio 2016 Olympics for Team GB.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31- Best of luck. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34So, Indy, we come to you first.
0:20:34 > 0:20:35Yeah. Um...
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Not very good with sport.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Obviously, I watched the Olympics but...
0:20:40 > 0:20:44I think...Laura Trott won something.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Laura Trott, let us find out.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48How many of our 100 people said Laura Trott?
0:20:51 > 0:20:53She absolutely did win gold.
0:20:53 > 0:20:54There we are. Laura Trott.
0:20:56 > 0:20:5832. Not bad.
0:20:58 > 0:20:5932 for Laura Trott.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04Yeah, she won two golds to add to the two she'd already got,
0:21:04 > 0:21:05so four golds for Laura Trott,
0:21:05 > 0:21:08the first British woman ever to achieve that.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Thank you, Richard. Now, John.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Erm, Elinor Baker.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17- Elinor Baker.- Elinor Baker, she was a cyclist.
0:21:17 > 0:21:18- OK.- Elinor Baker, says John.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21Let's see how many of our 100 people said Elinor Baker.
0:21:27 > 0:21:28Oh, John, I'm sorry.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31I was just thinking, that's a great answer, and I'm afraid it's not.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33That scores 100 points.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36It may easily not be the last 100 of this round but I'm afraid incorrect.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Sorry, John, can't give it to you, I'm afraid.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41I'll give you all the correct answers at the end of the pass.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Thanks very much indeed. Now then, Roly.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48- Roly?- An absolute mind blank.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50It's really annoying because I watched the Olympics
0:21:50 > 0:21:51and thought it was great.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Erm, I'm going to go with Bradley Wiggins.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58Bradley Wiggins, says Roly.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00Let's see how many of our 100 people said Bradley Wiggins.
0:22:03 > 0:22:04It's right.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06100 was the high score and you passed that.
0:22:06 > 0:22:0832 is the low and you passed that.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10Look at that! Bradley Wiggins, 22.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Not bad at all.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Yeah, the first Briton to win eight Olympic medals, Bradley Wiggins.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22Thank you very much. We're halfway through the round,
0:22:22 > 0:22:23let's have a quick look at the scores.
0:22:23 > 0:22:2522, the best score of the pass, very well done.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Roly and Duggan looking very strong at this point.
0:22:27 > 0:22:3032 is where Indy and Hav are to be found
0:22:30 > 0:22:33and 100 is where we find John and Gwen.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Who knows what'll happen in the next pass?
0:22:35 > 0:22:37But Gwen, we definitely need a low score from you.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39We're going to come back down the line now.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Can the second players, please, step up to the podium?
0:22:44 > 0:22:47OK. So, Duggan...
0:22:47 > 0:22:48- Yes.- Duggan,
0:22:48 > 0:22:51we're looking for anyone who won a gold medal for Team GB
0:22:51 > 0:22:54at Rio in 2016.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58Erm, I know absolutely zilch about sport.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Er, I didn't watch it.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Haven't got a clue. Erm...
0:23:04 > 0:23:06..Andy Murray.
0:23:06 > 0:23:07Andy Murray.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Andy Murray. Here is your red line.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Get below that red line, you're through to the head-to-head.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15How many people said Andy Murray?
0:23:17 > 0:23:19Absolutely right.
0:23:19 > 0:23:20Gets you through.
0:23:22 > 0:23:2522 is our low score. 21, the lowest score of the round so far.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Duggan, very well done indeed.
0:23:27 > 0:23:2943.
0:23:29 > 0:23:30Yeah, well done.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Won his second title, beating Juan Martin del Potro.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Thank you very much indeed.
0:23:35 > 0:23:36Now then, Gwen.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Did you watch the Olympics?
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Not a lot. No.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Did you follow the Olympics?
0:23:44 > 0:23:46- Not really, no.- Not really?- No.
0:23:49 > 0:23:50I have one name.
0:23:52 > 0:23:53Mo Mowlam?
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Mo Farah!
0:23:59 > 0:24:02I love the way you did that when you said Mo Farah.
0:24:04 > 0:24:05Oh!
0:24:07 > 0:24:08Oh, Gwen, I'm sorry.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11- We have to take Mo Mowlam.- Ah-ah!
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Aw! Well...
0:24:14 > 0:24:17Let's see what happens when we say Mo Mowlam.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19No red line for you as you're the high-scorers.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25I'm sorry. Oh, Gwen, I'm sorry.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28Not Mo Mowlam. That's an easy mistake to make.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30That scores you 200, I'm sorry.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Yeah, no Mo Mowlam, I'm afraid.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36Farrah Fawcett won two golds, but no Mo Mowlam.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41You know what? What a way to go out, I would say!
0:24:41 > 0:24:45- At least you got a story out of it. - Thank you.- Thanks very much indeed.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48- Now then, Hav.- I'm having a horrible blank, which is a real shame,
0:24:48 > 0:24:50because there were so many medals.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53So I'm just going to have to go with Mo Farah to keep it safe.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55- So...- OK, Mo Farah, says Hav.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58It doesn't matter what you score, you're through anyway, no red line.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Let's see how far down the column we get with Mo Farah.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07It's right. Look at that!
0:25:07 > 0:25:0867,
0:25:08 > 0:25:11the highest scorer of all the answers.
0:25:11 > 0:25:12Good news for Mo,
0:25:12 > 0:25:14taking your total up to 99.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Yeah, defended both of his Olympic titles, Mo Farah.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19Also was briefly a member of Tony Blair's Cabinet.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Erm, now, I'm going to say out loud Mo Mowlam was a bad answer.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26- You know it's a bad answer as well. - Yes.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28So that's a bad 100 points to get.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31But the opposition to a bad 100 points is a brilliant 100 points,
0:25:31 > 0:25:34which is what John gave us, because you said Elinor Baker,
0:25:34 > 0:25:36I can't give it to you. It's a different surname.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40It's Elinor Barker, I'm afraid, and that was a pointless answer.
0:25:40 > 0:25:41Oh, no!
0:25:42 > 0:25:45So, what a way to go! You can go back to your farm and at least know
0:25:45 > 0:25:49you gave the best answer and it was one letter out.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Imagine if you'd got a pointless answer
0:25:51 > 0:25:53and then you'd still said Mo Mowlam. Oh, my goodness!
0:25:53 > 0:25:55You'd never be forgiven, would you?
0:25:55 > 0:25:57That long journey back to North Wales
0:25:57 > 0:25:58would have been very interesting.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Now, there's lots and lots of pointless answers here
0:26:01 > 0:26:03because we won so many medals, I guess,
0:26:03 > 0:26:05and of course, lots of them were team medals as well.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08Let's take a look at a few of them, shall we?
0:26:10 > 0:26:14Er, Calum Skinner won for cycling. He's a pointless answer.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18Constantine Louloudis from the men's rowing four was a pointless answer.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20All of the men's rowing four and the men's rowing eight,
0:26:20 > 0:26:22every single one of them was a pointless answer.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25Hannah Mills is a pointless answer. She was from sailing.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28Hollie Webb from our hockey team was a pointless answer,
0:26:28 > 0:26:31as was Nicola White. She was from our hockey team.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32Both scored in that final.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35Joe Clarke in the kayak was a pointless answer.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38You also could have had Pete Reed, who was from the men's eight,
0:26:38 > 0:26:41Philip Hindes in the cycling, Saskia Clark from sailing.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44Actually, two more of the hockey team were both pointless answers.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47That was Helen and Kate Richardson-Walsh.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49So very well done if you said them.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52The top three answers, we've had the top two,
0:26:52 > 0:26:54which were Laura Trott and Mo Farah.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57But Jason Kenny, of course, married Laura Trott.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59He would have scored you 24. There's Laura Trott, 32.
0:26:59 > 0:27:03Ten gold medals between the two of them, and Mo Farah, 67.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08At the end of our second round, the pair we have to say goodbye to,
0:27:08 > 0:27:10I'm so sorry, with their high score of 200.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12Different stories behind each of those scores, Gwen and John,
0:27:12 > 0:27:15it's been lovely having you on the show. Thank you for coming to play.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Gwen and John, wonderful contestants.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Congratulations, Roly and Duggan, Hav and Indy.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34You are now one step closer to the final and a chance to play
0:27:34 > 0:27:39for our jackpot, which currently stands at £8,250.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45This is exciting. This is the bit where you start playing as a team.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47You can confer before you give all your answers.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50The first pair in this round to win two questions will be going through
0:27:50 > 0:27:51to the final to play for that jackpot.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54Very best of luck to both players. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01OK. Here is your first question.
0:28:01 > 0:28:05And our first question today is all about climbing plants.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08- Richard?- Going to show you five pictures now of climbing plants.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10We'll also give you the first and last letters of their names,
0:28:10 > 0:28:12but what are they, please?
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Thank you. What are these climbing plants?
0:28:15 > 0:28:16We have got...
0:28:50 > 0:28:53There we are. Five climbing plants.
0:28:53 > 0:28:57Roly and Duggan, you are our low scorers, so you will go first.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00Oh!
0:29:00 > 0:29:04- That is a great answer. Yes.- If it's right.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06That is what it is. Well done.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08Have you just worked out D, by any chance?
0:29:08 > 0:29:10- No, we've just worked out E. - Worked out E.
0:29:10 > 0:29:12I'm thinking of an Oasis album.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18Morning glory?
0:29:18 > 0:29:20OK. That's your answer, is it?
0:29:20 > 0:29:23OK. You're going to go E, morning glory.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26OK. Hav and Indy, do you want to talk us through that board?
0:29:28 > 0:29:32A is clematis an C is wisteria. I don't know the other two.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35And I figure wisteria's quite a famous...
0:29:35 > 0:29:37- Oh, definitely.- More popular one. I think we'll go clematis.
0:29:37 > 0:29:39OK, you're going to go for clematis.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42OK. Let's find out.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44So, we have morning glory from Roly and Duggan.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47Let's see how many of our 100 people said Morning Glory.
0:29:56 > 0:29:5721.
0:30:02 > 0:30:07Hav and Indy meanwhile have gone for A and said clematis.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09Let's see how many of our 100 people said clematis.
0:30:17 > 0:30:1846 for clematis.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20Very well done, Roly and Duggan.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22After one question, you are up 1-0.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25A couple of answers up there that would have beaten morning glory.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27We'll start with C, which is wisteria.
0:30:27 > 0:30:30You were right to avoid it. It is the biggest scorer.
0:30:30 > 0:30:31Would have scored you 56.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34But the other two are the best answers on the board.
0:30:34 > 0:30:37- Now B?- Virginia creeper. - Is Virginia creeper.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40- Yep.- And that would have scored you 13 points.
0:30:40 > 0:30:41The best answer on the board,
0:30:41 > 0:30:43you can work out what the second word is.
0:30:43 > 0:30:45Is it trumpet vine?
0:30:45 > 0:30:47It is trumpet vine, absolutely right. Well done.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49Would have scored you one point.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51Thank you very much indeed.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53So, here comes your second question.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Hav and Indy, you get to answer it first.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58You have to win it to stay in the game. Best of luck.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02Our second question is all about famous MPs.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04- Richard?- We're going to show you five clues now
0:31:04 > 0:31:07relating to famous people whose initials are MP.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09Can you tell us who they are, please?
0:31:09 > 0:31:13Thanks very much indeed. Let's reveal our five famous MPs,
0:31:13 > 0:31:15and here they are. We have got...
0:31:39 > 0:31:41I'll read those all again.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03There we are. Hav and Indy, you will go first.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06No, not that. A bit older.
0:32:08 > 0:32:11Michael Parkinson's in there. Don't matter.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13The last one's Mary Portas.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17I'll take it from those two, but up to you.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21I know all of them but it's trying to think which one's
0:32:21 > 0:32:26going to be the lowest one. So, I'm going to go with the bottom one.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28Is it Mary Portas?
0:32:28 > 0:32:30Mary Portas, say Hav and Indy.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34Mary Portas. Now, Roly and Duggan, talk us through that board.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37The top one is Michael Palin.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40The third one is Michael Parkinson.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43And the fourth one is Michelle Pfeiffer.
0:32:43 > 0:32:47I think we should go for maybe Michelle Pfeiffer,
0:32:47 > 0:32:50people might think her surname is spelt with an F or something maybe,
0:32:50 > 0:32:53I don't know. The fourth one down, Michelle Pfeiffer.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56Michelle Pfeiffer. So we have Mary Portas and Michelle Pfeiffer.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58Hav and Indy, you went for Mary Portas.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01Let's see how many of our 100 people said Mary Portas.
0:33:03 > 0:33:05It's right.
0:33:08 > 0:33:0941 for Mary Portas.
0:33:13 > 0:33:1441 for that.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16Now Roly and Duggan meanwhile
0:33:16 > 0:33:18have gone for Michelle Pfeiffer for Catwoman.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:33:23 > 0:33:24It's right.
0:33:26 > 0:33:28It's close. Oh, it wins.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30Look at that! Michelle Pfeiffer down to 32.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Very well done.
0:33:32 > 0:33:34Good logic there.
0:33:34 > 0:33:36And it means Roly and Duggan, after only two questions,
0:33:36 > 0:33:38you are straight through to the final, 2-0.
0:33:38 > 0:33:40Yeah, listen, that was absolutely one of those boards
0:33:40 > 0:33:41where you know all the answers
0:33:41 > 0:33:44and it's just working out which is the lowest scorer.
0:33:44 > 0:33:45Going to be really tough.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47I had exactly the same thought process as you.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49I would have gone for Mary Portas as well but Michelle Pfeiffer
0:33:49 > 0:33:52is the best answer on the board, so very well chosen.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55Michael Parkinson also would have beaten Mary Portas
0:33:55 > 0:33:56because he would have scored 38.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59I think maybe because the clue is slightly more obscure.
0:33:59 > 0:34:0038 for that.
0:34:00 > 0:34:04At the top, Michael Palin is the biggest scorer.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06Would have scored you 64.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09- And the Venetian explorer... - Marco Polo.- Marco Polo.
0:34:09 > 0:34:13- But a big scorer, 57 for Marco Polo. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15So the pair leaving us at the end of their head-to-head round,
0:34:15 > 0:34:17Hav and Indy. Oh, I'm so sorry.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20You've been in the head-to-head twice, once as our golden couple.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22And I'm afraid both times, you've had the final snatched away
0:34:22 > 0:34:25from under your noses but it's been wonderful having you on the show
0:34:25 > 0:34:27and really impressive play as well. Very well done for that.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30Thanks so much for playing. Hav and Indy, great contestants.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37But for Roly and Duggan, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43Well, congratulations, Roly and Duggan.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45You have fought off all the competition
0:34:45 > 0:34:47and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:34:56 > 0:35:01At the end of today's show, the jackpot is standing at £8,250.
0:35:01 > 0:35:02Ooh!
0:35:05 > 0:35:06Wow! That's an exciting jackpot.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08Now, listen, you know what happens here.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11Four things will appear on the board behind me.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14Four categories. You just have to hope... £8,250 is riding on this.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17..there's got to be something up there you'd like to see.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19Music's obviously going to be a big one.
0:35:19 > 0:35:21- What else? - Under normal circumstances,
0:35:21 > 0:35:23I would say music but what I don't want to do
0:35:23 > 0:35:26is get an easy music question wrong, so I'd feel quite stupid,
0:35:26 > 0:35:29so something geography-related could be quite interesting...
0:35:29 > 0:35:33- Not for me.- Film or sport, maybe. - Let's see what's up there.
0:35:33 > 0:35:35Hope there's something you like the look of.
0:35:35 > 0:35:36Today's selection looks like this...
0:35:46 > 0:35:50- For me, I don't know a lot about weddings.- I wouldn't have a clue.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52Characters in stage love stories, I don't know.
0:35:52 > 0:35:55- I wouldn't have a clue. - Especially love stories.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57Cocktails, possibly.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59Irish pop. Does that mean fizzy drink, or...?
0:36:03 > 0:36:05- For me, it's got to be pop. - Do you think?
0:36:05 > 0:36:08You've just got to hope it's something we're going to be able to
0:36:08 > 0:36:11know the answer in. I think go for Irish Pop.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15- Irish Pop.- Irish Pop.
0:36:15 > 0:36:16For the non-alcoholic option.
0:36:16 > 0:36:19Gents, very best of luck. Three very different groups here.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22We're looking for any UK Top 40 hits up to the end of August 2016
0:36:22 > 0:36:24by any of the following, please.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37Any UK Top 40 singles up to the end of August 2016 by B*Witched,
0:36:37 > 0:36:39the Boomtown Rats or The Cranberries.
0:36:39 > 0:36:43Very best of luck, gents. £8,250.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45Thank you very much indeed.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47As always, you've got up to one minute to come up
0:36:47 > 0:36:49with three answers, and all you need to win the jackpot
0:36:49 > 0:36:52is for just one of those answers to be pointless. Are you ready?
0:36:52 > 0:36:55- Yes.- Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock, there they are.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57Your time starts now.
0:36:57 > 0:36:59OK. I know there's... I think...
0:36:59 > 0:37:02Wasn't there a song, something to do with Rollercoaster,
0:37:02 > 0:37:05- B*Witched...?- By B*Witched, yeah, yeah.
0:37:05 > 0:37:08- I think so.- Boomtown Rats, we've got I Don't Like Mondays.
0:37:08 > 0:37:10That's obviously the most obvious one.
0:37:10 > 0:37:11Do you know any other songs by them?
0:37:11 > 0:37:13I know Linger and Zombie by The Cranberries.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16- Was that The Cranberries?- Zombie is. Linger, everybody'll know.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18Linger... Was that definitely The Cranberries?
0:37:18 > 0:37:21Yeah, cos I used to play it.
0:37:21 > 0:37:23Well, that would mean you'd know it.
0:37:23 > 0:37:24Well, I think both the Cranberries ones
0:37:24 > 0:37:26are going to be the most obscure,
0:37:26 > 0:37:29and The Boomtown Rats has got to be the most answers in that category.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31But I don't know any of their songs, other than...
0:37:31 > 0:37:33Wasn't there a song called, like, C'est...?
0:37:33 > 0:37:36- Yeah, but that was their main hit. - What was that called?
0:37:36 > 0:37:38- C'est La Vie.- C'est La Vie? C'est La Vie by B*Witched.
0:37:38 > 0:37:40If they had one called Rollercoaster,
0:37:40 > 0:37:42that's probably going to be more obscure, isn't it?
0:37:42 > 0:37:45I would say C'est La Vie we should definitely go with,
0:37:45 > 0:37:47- because I think...- Ten seconds left.
0:37:47 > 0:37:49C'est La Vie, everyone'll know that,
0:37:49 > 0:37:51- cos it's their main song. - Are we going for any Rats ones?
0:37:51 > 0:37:53- No?- I'd say... - Don't Like Mondays...?
0:37:55 > 0:37:57And then Cranberries, so we've got Zombie and Linger.
0:37:57 > 0:37:59OK, that, I'm afraid, is your time up.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01Let's have your three answers.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03OK. Do we feel, like, two in The Cranberries?
0:38:03 > 0:38:04Is that what you're saying?
0:38:04 > 0:38:06Or do you not want to go for two in B*Witched?
0:38:06 > 0:38:08C'est La Vie's not going to be pointless.
0:38:08 > 0:38:11- Because it was a massive hit. - OK. So, we'll go for...
0:38:11 > 0:38:16I don't even know if it's actually what it's called, but something...
0:38:16 > 0:38:18Let's say Rollercoaster, for B*Witched.
0:38:18 > 0:38:20Rollercoaster. OK.
0:38:20 > 0:38:23And then Linger, and also a second song, Zombie,
0:38:23 > 0:38:25- both for The Cranberries. - Linger and Zombie.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27OK. There we are.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:29 > 0:38:31- I think we should?- Linger's not going to be pointless.
0:38:31 > 0:38:34I think we should sandwich B*Witched with The Cranberries,
0:38:34 > 0:38:36- it'd be quite amusing.- Mmm!
0:38:36 > 0:38:38There's an image.
0:38:38 > 0:38:40OK. So we've got B*Witched in the middle.
0:38:42 > 0:38:43With The Cranberries on either side.
0:38:43 > 0:38:46So we've got Zombie as our most likely to be pointless,
0:38:46 > 0:38:49Linger our least likely, and B*Witched in the middle.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51- Rollercoaster.- OK, let's pop those answers up on the board
0:38:51 > 0:38:53in that order, then, and here they are...
0:38:58 > 0:39:01Well, three answers on the board there.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03One of those could turn out to be pointless,
0:39:03 > 0:39:06it could win you £8,250 if it is pointless.
0:39:06 > 0:39:08What would you like to do with that money?
0:39:08 > 0:39:10Roly, you first.
0:39:10 > 0:39:12If I got my share of the money,
0:39:12 > 0:39:14I think what I'd really like to do is...
0:39:14 > 0:39:15What do you mean, "If"?
0:39:15 > 0:39:18What, you think Duggan might not hand it over?
0:39:18 > 0:39:20I'm not that confident in our answers, but...
0:39:20 > 0:39:22Oh, I see what you mean.
0:39:22 > 0:39:25But if I got the money, I think what I'd do is I'd like to go to Vegas.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Very good. Very good.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29- Duggan, how about you? - I'd buy a load of suits.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31Loads of really sharp suits. Bit like yours.
0:39:33 > 0:39:35Can't scrimp on suits.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38Very best of luck. Three good answers on the board,
0:39:38 > 0:39:40let's hope one of these turns out to be pointless.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43Irish Pop's the category, your first answer was Linger,
0:39:43 > 0:39:47in this case we were looking for The Cranberries' UK Top 40 hits.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50You've gone for Linger. If it's pointless, it wins you £8,250.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53Let's see how many of our 100 people said Linger.
0:39:58 > 0:39:59Well, it's right...
0:39:59 > 0:40:02Linger now takes us down through he 50s.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05If it goes all the way down to zero, you leave with £8,250.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08Linger takes us down through he 20s, into the teens...
0:40:08 > 0:40:10Just. 19!
0:40:12 > 0:40:15You said that, you said you knew that Linger wasn't going to be
0:40:15 > 0:40:17a pointless answer, that's a popular answer there.
0:40:17 > 0:40:20We move quickly on to your next answer, which is Rollercoaster.
0:40:20 > 0:40:23In this case, we were looking for B*Witched UK Top 40 singles.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26If this is pointless, it will win you £8,250.
0:40:26 > 0:40:29How many of our 100 people said Rollercoaster?
0:40:34 > 0:40:35Well, it's right.
0:40:35 > 0:40:38Now, we weren't sure if Rollercoaster was going to be right.
0:40:38 > 0:40:40That was what put it into second place.
0:40:40 > 0:40:41Let's see how far down the column we go.
0:40:41 > 0:40:4319 was scored with Linger.
0:40:43 > 0:40:44We pass 19, we're into single figures.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47Down it goes, Rollercoaster, taking us down to 5.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50Oh!
0:40:51 > 0:40:53Good going! This is fantastic.
0:40:53 > 0:40:54From 19 down to 5.
0:40:54 > 0:40:57Let's see if we can keep that downward trajectory up.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59Your third and final answer
0:40:59 > 0:41:01is Zombie, and in this case, we're back on The Cranberries.
0:41:01 > 0:41:04We're looking for UK Top 40 hits by The Cranberries.
0:41:04 > 0:41:09If this is pointless, Zombie, it wins you £8,250,
0:41:09 > 0:41:11a trip to Vegas, some nice suits...
0:41:14 > 0:41:15How many of our 100 people said Zombie?
0:41:19 > 0:41:20Well, it's right.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22Linger took us down to 19.
0:41:22 > 0:41:24Rollercoaster took us down to 5.
0:41:24 > 0:41:27Zombie now takes us down through he 30s and into he 20s...
0:41:27 > 0:41:29Down we go, still going down...
0:41:29 > 0:41:30Ooh, 23!
0:41:36 > 0:41:37Anyway...
0:41:38 > 0:41:40Well, Rollercoaster, appropriately enough,
0:41:40 > 0:41:43gave us a bit of a ride for our money there, didn't it?
0:41:43 > 0:41:44Took us all the way down to 5.
0:41:44 > 0:41:48But I'm afraid you just didn't find that all-important pointless answer,
0:41:48 > 0:41:50so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52That therefore rolls over on to the next show.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55But what a performance. Amazing, it's been great having you here.
0:41:55 > 0:41:56Just one appearance on the show,
0:41:56 > 0:41:58straight through the head-to-head, 2-0.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00No mucking about there, straight into the final,
0:42:00 > 0:42:02and you get a Pointless trophy to take home each,
0:42:02 > 0:42:05just sorry you don't get that jackpot, but very well done.
0:42:05 > 0:42:06Roly and Duggan, superb.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13Well played, gents. Let's take a look at the pointless answers here,
0:42:13 > 0:42:16shall we? It's quite a tough one, this, I'll be honest.
0:42:16 > 0:42:18There's a number one single there, To You I Belong,
0:42:18 > 0:42:20that was their third number one single...
0:42:21 > 0:42:23Those are the only four pointless answers for B*Witched,
0:42:23 > 0:42:28just the four there. Boomtown Rats, there are six pointless answers...
0:42:31 > 0:42:34..House On Fire and The Elephant's Graveyard.
0:42:34 > 0:42:35All of those were pointless answers.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38And again, for The Cranberries just the four pointless answers.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46Very, very well done if you got any of those at home.
0:42:46 > 0:42:47Thanks very much indeed, Richard,
0:42:47 > 0:42:49and thanks very much, Roly and Duggan.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51I'm so sorry, they didn't win the jackpot today,
0:42:51 > 0:42:53which means it rolls over on to the next show,
0:42:53 > 0:42:56when we will be playing for £9,250.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00Join us then to see if someone can win it.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...
0:43:02 > 0:43:05- Goodbye.- And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
