0:00:19 > 0:00:21APPLAUSE
0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Pointless, the show where the more obscure your knowledge,
0:00:27 > 0:00:30the better your chances of winning. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:34 > 0:00:35And couple number one.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38I'm Duncan, this is Gary, my Pointless friend,
0:00:38 > 0:00:40and we're from Dunblane.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42- Couple number two. - I'm Henry, this is my friend Dougie,
0:00:42 > 0:00:46we're both currently at university, but we're originally from Leeds.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Couple number three.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50Hi, I'm Andy, this is my girlfriend Cherry, and we're from Rotherham.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52And finally, couple number four.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Sara, this is my friend, Hannah,
0:00:54 > 0:00:57I'm from Exeter, and Hannah is from Leicestershire.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00And these are today's contestants.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Thanks very much, all of you, a very warm welcome to Pointless.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Lovely to have you all here. We'll get a chance to chat to you
0:01:05 > 0:01:06throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Here to cut the mustard, stir the custard
0:01:11 > 0:01:13and sing along to the songs of Busted,
0:01:13 > 0:01:15it's my Pointless friend - it's Richard!
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Hiya. Hey, everybody.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19Hiya.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- Hello, there. - Hello, good afternoon.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Good afternoon to you. It should be a cracking show today.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Two returning pairs - on our first two podiums, actually.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Dougie and Henry got through to the head-to-head. Welcome back.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34Gary and Duncan got knocked out in Round One.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36Not terrible answers - certainly not from Gary!
0:01:36 > 0:01:38LAUGHTER
0:01:38 > 0:01:41Lovely to have you all back. It should be a lot of fun, I think.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43I think it should. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46Well, Alison and Emma, who were our finalists last time,
0:01:46 > 0:01:50managed not to win the jackpot, so we add another £1,000 to it.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52So today's jackpot starts off at £2,000, there we are.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Only one thing I beg of you not to forget, and it is this -
0:02:07 > 0:02:09the pair with the highest score at the end of each round
0:02:09 > 0:02:11will be eliminated.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13So keep your scores nice and low. I'm looking at you, Duncan.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Best of luck to all four pairs.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Our category for the first round is...
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25who's going to go second?
0:02:25 > 0:02:27And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32OK, and the question concerns...
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Famous Warriors, Richard.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39That's annoying - I asked them to do famous worriers!
0:02:39 > 0:02:42And...it was going to be the most anxious people in history.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44On each board, seven descriptions of people known for
0:02:44 > 0:02:47their military prowess or fighting capabilities.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49We're also going to give you their initials.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51So 14 in all, seven on each board. Best of luck at home.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Thank you very much indeed.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56OK, let's reveal our first board of warriors, and here they are.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32I'm going read those all again.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06- There we go. Gary, welcome back. - Thank you.- Tell us about yourself.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08I'm Gary, I'm a minister in Dunblane.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11I've been there for about 15 months and having a great time.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Enjoying lots of different things in my parish,
0:04:14 > 0:04:16particularly amateur dramatics.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Oh! I bet Gary's good at amateur dramatics.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21- He's got a good voice for... - He's got a great voice.- Yeah.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23What sort of things are you working on at the moment?
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Well, we're doing a panto in January.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27I was hoping you'd say that. What will you be playing?
0:04:27 > 0:04:29See if you can guess. Arrr-harrr!
0:04:29 > 0:04:30Ah, Snow White!
0:04:30 > 0:04:33LAUGHTER
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- Pirate, pirate.- A pirate. You'd make an excellent pirate.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40- Thank you.- Not just the beard. The mean. Anyway, there we are.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44- Now, Gary, what would you like to go for on our board?- Right...
0:04:44 > 0:04:47I think I shall go for...
0:04:47 > 0:04:49..British Queen of the Iceni tribe
0:04:49 > 0:04:51who led a revolt against Roman rule in 60AD.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Boudiga.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Boudiga?
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.
0:05:04 > 0:05:0670.
0:05:06 > 0:05:0870...
0:05:08 > 0:05:10..for Boudicca.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Yes, the woman of a million names. - Yeah.- Difficult to pronounce.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16But, yes, very good answer.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- "Boudiga"! That's...- "Boudiga"! - That's how we say it in Scotland.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21It's good. Thank you very much, Richard.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24- Now, Dougie, welcome back.- Thank you.- Remind us what you do, Dougie?
0:05:24 > 0:05:27I'm a student at the University of Birmingham.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30- And you are studying...? - Philosophy.- In your last year?
0:05:30 > 0:05:32- That I am, yes.- Very good indeed.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Now, what sort of things are you getting up to in Birmingham?
0:05:35 > 0:05:37I play cricket, and I'm in a few societies at university.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40In fact, me and a few friends, they didn't get into
0:05:40 > 0:05:43the university cricket team, so they started up their own club
0:05:43 > 0:05:45and I managed to get on board with that quite quickly.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Now, hang on, I'm kind of inferring from that
0:05:47 > 0:05:50- that you did get into the university cricket team?- No, I didn't.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Oh, you didn't as well? Right, OK. I thought you were going to say,
0:05:52 > 0:05:55"I'm helping out there, giving a little bit of expertise."
0:05:55 > 0:05:57- I'm in their team, with them. - OK, very good.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59- Now, Dougie, what would you like to go for here?- Erm...
0:06:01 > 0:06:05Please may I go for giant Philistine warrior defeated by David,
0:06:05 > 0:06:06and that is Goliath.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Goliath, says Dougie.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Let's see how many of our 100 people said Goliath.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15It's right. Well...
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Ooh, 74.
0:06:17 > 0:06:1974 for Goliath.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22A giant score.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23Yeah, two big scores so far.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Of course, famously been revised,
0:06:25 > 0:06:26the whole story of David and Goliath.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28David's seen as an underdog,
0:06:28 > 0:06:31but any military historian...says he was a huge favourite.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- Interesting, isn't it? - It is interesting.
0:06:33 > 0:06:34Lots of good things written about him.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Malcolm Gladwell writes very interestingly about it.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Completely revises the way that we think about that story.
0:06:40 > 0:06:45I played Goliath in my son's school play.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- Did you?- Yeah, yeah, yeah.- Did you?
0:06:47 > 0:06:50I bet, because you're an actor, though, you didn't want to lose.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53"I'm sorry, I just looked at the script - it's terrific stuff.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55"I wonder if there's a little rewrite here where Goliath,
0:06:55 > 0:06:58"he gets up again, and he pummels David?
0:06:58 > 0:07:00"I wonder if that's something we could do?"
0:07:00 > 0:07:03I bet you did. That was good. Who played David?
0:07:03 > 0:07:05I bet there was a queue of people who wanted to play David.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07I'd have played him.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09LAUGHTER That would have looked odd.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11- A little bit.- There we are.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13I'd have had to stand a long way away.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Now, Cherry, welcome.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17- Good to have you here, from Rotherham.- Yeah.
0:07:17 > 0:07:18What keeps you busy in Rotherham?
0:07:18 > 0:07:22I'm currently a support worker, I support disabled adults.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Very good, good for you. And how often do you do that?
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Is that a full-time job?
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Yeah, it's full-time. I work shifts during the week.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Very good. And what are your interests when you're not at work?
0:07:31 > 0:07:36I like going to the gym, swimming, and I like art, I draw a lot.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38I have done since I was little.
0:07:38 > 0:07:39What sort of things?
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Do you do cartoons, caricatures, things like that?
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Yeah, I like using a lot of bright colours.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Very good. Sometimes people do drawings of us, don't they?
0:07:46 > 0:07:48I've seen people do drawings of us.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51I have seen one drawing of us that looked quite like us.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54- Oh, really?- Yeah, there was one. - That's interesting.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57I like it when they do drawings of us in icing on a cake.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59- See, that's nice. - Those are my favourite drawings.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Or, recently, as icing on a biscuit, a lemon biscuit.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05- Oh, yes, that was lovely. - That was really nice.- Yeah.- Mm!
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Anyway, sorry, Cherry, there we go.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11- What would you like to go for? - I'm not great with history.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14Erm, I'm going to have to go King of Macedonia who conquered
0:08:14 > 0:08:16the Persian Empire known as...
0:08:16 > 0:08:19It's just a guess. ..Arthur The Great.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22- No...- OK... Ooh! You get a buzz from the audience.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24Let's find out if that's a good buzz or a bad buzz.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28- I don't know any on the board. - Arthur The Great, says Cherry.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Let's see.... It has a ring to it!
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Let's see how many of our 100 people went for Arthur?
0:08:36 > 0:08:37- Oh, no.- No,
0:08:37 > 0:08:40I'm afraid not Arthur The Great.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42- That scores you 100 points. - Sorry, Cherry.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44I'll give all the correct answers at the end of the pass.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Thank you very much indeed.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48- Now, then, Hannah, welcome. - Hello.- Good to have you here.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- What do you do, Hannah? - I'm a voice-over artist.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53- Oh, no, that's fun! - Yeah, it is, it's fun.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55That's a nice way to earn your crust, isn't it?
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Yeah, it is, isn't it? - What sort of things do you voice?
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Well, I've done a lot of audio books -
0:09:00 > 0:09:01that's my favourite side of it.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03But other corporate stuff as well, but...
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Now, when you do audio books, and you have characters.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07I mean, obviously, I know when you're...
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- Presumably, you read through everything in advance.- Yeah.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14- Yeah.- That's quite important. - There's a professional right there!
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- Especially in a murder mystery. - How many times have you said...
0:09:17 > 0:09:19EFFEMINATE VOICE: "'Yes, yes, I do!'" replied the captain."
0:09:19 > 0:09:21"Oh, sorry..."
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- DEEP VOICE: "'Yes, yes, I do...'" - So many times, yeah.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Do you have a colour coding so you remember which voice is which?
0:09:26 > 0:09:28- I have quite an elaborate spreadsheet.- That...
0:09:28 > 0:09:30- You really are a professional! - Yeah, thank you.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Are you suggesting that you don't do that, if you do an audio book?
0:09:33 > 0:09:36I didn't... I mean, by the end of the session I've probably
0:09:36 > 0:09:39got a pretty good...what we might call a spreadsheet, yes.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41- Yeah.- A kind of diagram, you might call it.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44But you're very good at remembering which voice is for which?
0:09:44 > 0:09:45Yeah, sometimes.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Sometimes, you get to the next page and go, "Oh, that's a man!"
0:09:48 > 0:09:51- Yes, exactly. - You've just got to go back, yeah.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52- Now, Hannah.- Hello.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55What would you like to go for on this board? It's all yours.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57- Do you want to talk us through and fill in all the blanks?- Yes.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Well... So the Knight of the Round Table is Lancelot.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02Then we've got Joan of Arc.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05I think I've got the Charlton Heston one in my head
0:10:05 > 0:10:07but I can't think what it is.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10I think it's El something or other. I don't know, I'm not sure.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Erm, Alexander The Great.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16But I think I'm going to go for the bottom, which is Leonidas.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19Leonidas. Or "Le-onidas". Let's see if that's right,
0:10:19 > 0:10:22let's see how many of our 100 people went for Leonidas, or "Le-onidas"?
0:10:25 > 0:10:27- It is right. - It's right!
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Well, 74... I'm sorry, 100 is our highest score,
0:10:29 > 0:10:3070 is our low.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32You leave everyone in your wake.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Look at that, down to 8, very well done indeed, Hannah.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38That's a proper answer, very good indeed.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Well played, Hannah, that's a lovely answer.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43You took us through the board very nicely as well.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Yeah, not Arthur The Great - Alexander The Great.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48That would've scored you 44 points.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51It's terrible there's already an Alexander The Great -
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- it doesn't really give you anywhere to go, does it?- No.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55There's yet to be a Richard The Great, so I could still,
0:10:55 > 0:10:58- you never know, I could achieve something.- Yeah, you could.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02The top one, the Knight of the Round Table, is Lancelot - quite right.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04It would've scored 63.
0:11:04 > 0:11:05The French heroine, Joan of Arc.
0:11:07 > 0:11:0978. And you were halfway there with the Spanish hero.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11- El Cid.- El Cid. - HANNAH:- Ah, that's it, yeah.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13And that would've scored 30.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15So the best answer on the board, Hannah, Leonidas. Well played.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Let's look at the scores. 8 is the best score of the pass,
0:11:20 > 0:11:22Hannah, very well done indeed.
0:11:22 > 0:11:23Hannah and Sara looking very strong.
0:11:23 > 0:11:28Then we travel quite a long way up to 70, which is
0:11:28 > 0:11:30where we find Gary and Duncan - second-best score of the round.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Then up to 74, Dougie and Henry.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35Then, up to 100, Cherry and Andy. Now, Andy...
0:11:35 > 0:11:37..you're not that far ahead, but you are ahead.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40You're definitely ahead, significantly ahead.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42We need a low score from you in the next pass. Good luck with that.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44We're going to come back down the line now.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:11:48 > 0:11:52Right, let's put seven more clues up on the board, and here they are -
0:11:52 > 0:11:54famous warriors, every one.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27I shall read those all again.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56- Sara.- Hello. - Welcome to Pointless.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- Sara, what do you do? - I'm an actor. Yes...
0:12:59 > 0:13:01- An actor? Yeah.- Yes.- Yeah.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03Not tempted by the...by the booth?
0:13:03 > 0:13:07I am tempted by the booth. I've just got a microphone to try, but...
0:13:07 > 0:13:09- That's the first part of the booth, the most important bit.- Yeah.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12So far, I've just sort of been sat in my wardrobe trying
0:13:12 > 0:13:15to record bits, so it's not as professional as Hannah.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18OK, what you need is some egg boxes to lessen the echo in the booth.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19This is a voice-overs, obviously.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- We're getting Sara around to the dark side.- Thank you.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26- And then, yeah...- Good to go! - You are good to go.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29I just need to eat a lot of omelettes over the next few weeks.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Yeah, absolutely!
0:13:31 > 0:13:34I was slightly puzzled about what you were saying there.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37I was thinking... "Ah, yes, egg boxes - got you!"
0:13:37 > 0:13:38LAUGHTER Now, then...
0:13:38 > 0:13:41I was thinking, that booth's going to be a bit... Ugh...
0:13:43 > 0:13:48- Anyway, now, Sara, lovely low score from Hannah in the first pass.- Yes.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52It means that if you can score 91 or less,
0:13:52 > 0:13:54you are straight through to the next round.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Good, good, OK. Yes.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Well, I hopefully know one, at least,
0:13:59 > 0:14:01so I'm going to go for Genghis Khan
0:14:01 > 0:14:04for Mongol warrior who conquered much of Central Asia and China.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- Genghis Khan.- Yes.- Now, here is your red line - nice and high.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09If you get below this with Genghis Khan,
0:14:09 > 0:14:11you are right through to the next round.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13How many of our 100 people said Genghis Khan?
0:14:15 > 0:14:17It's right. Very well done.
0:14:17 > 0:14:18Down it goes. 73.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21Good enough. It takes your total up to 81.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Yeah, they say that one in 200 men alive today
0:14:26 > 0:14:28are descended from Genghis Khan.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30He's another one whose story has been extensively rewritten.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32We thought he was a very terrible man.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Apparently, no, he just liked playing bridge.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37- Brewed his own beer, perfectly good guy.- Yeah, yeah.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39- Mowed his lawn.- Yeah.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42He's got this weird reputation from somewhere.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44He was the grandfather to Kubla as well.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48Yes, he was, indeed. And he was a member of the Rotary Club.
0:14:48 > 0:14:49I know. He was nice, exactly.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51Did an awful lot of work for charity.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55Had an allotment, where he grew runner beans.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Exactly, yeah. Thank you, Richard.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01There we are. So, now, Andy...
0:15:01 > 0:15:04- Hello.- Andy, welcome to Pointless, good to have you here.
0:15:04 > 0:15:05What do you do, Andy?
0:15:05 > 0:15:09I work as a member of the management team in a well-known record store.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Oh, that's nice!
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Oh, there aren't that many record stores left.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16- Yeah, there are still some going. - There are still some.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Are you doing roaring trade still?
0:15:19 > 0:15:22It's doing really well now. Vinyl's coming back into fashion...
0:15:22 > 0:15:24- You see, exactly. - ..so everyone's back on board.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27It's going to be back. You've been there and weathered the storm.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29- How long have you been there? - For nearly 15 years I've been there,
0:15:29 > 0:15:31so a long time.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Just hold on, it'll turn right up again.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35- Fingers crossed. - Oh, fingers crossed.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Andy, you're the high-scorers at this point.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40Anything could happen in the next three questions.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43But what we do need from you is a nice low score.
0:15:43 > 0:15:47I know a few, but the lowest I think that I know
0:15:47 > 0:15:51is the Greek hero of the Trojan War,
0:15:51 > 0:15:53I'm going to go for Achilles.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Achilles. Let's see if that's right,
0:15:55 > 0:15:57let's see how many of our 100 people said Achilles?
0:15:57 > 0:16:00There's no red line for you as you're the high-scorers.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09That is not bad at all.
0:16:09 > 0:16:1126, Andy.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13It takes your total up to 126.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16You might have done enough to keep yourselves in the game there.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Yeah, well played, Andy, great answer.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20He's played by Brad Pitt in the film Troy.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23That's the main thing about Achilles.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25LAUGHTER Mm, there we go.
0:16:25 > 0:16:26Thank you very much, Richard.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Now, Henry, welcome back.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Remind us what you do, Henry?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32I am at the University of Winchester
0:16:32 > 0:16:35studying ancient, classical and medieval studies.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Jee...! Oh...! Oh...!
0:16:38 > 0:16:40You didn't have to remind us of that, Henry,
0:16:40 > 0:16:42- and you could've just dazzled us. - I thought I might as well.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44You might as well, you might as well.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47The only one I'm not sure about is the last one,
0:16:47 > 0:16:50which is the Z one, I don't think I know that.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53So it's going to have to be a toss-up between the others
0:16:53 > 0:16:54and which I think is the lowest.
0:16:55 > 0:17:00I'm going to go for the Carthaginian who went over the mountains
0:17:00 > 0:17:02on the elephants, which is Hannibal.
0:17:02 > 0:17:03Hannibal, says Henry.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05Now, here is your red line.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07Get below that red line with Hannibal,
0:17:07 > 0:17:08you are through to Round Two.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10How many of our 100 people said it?
0:17:12 > 0:17:14It's right.
0:17:16 > 0:17:17You've done it.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Very good indeed.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22Taking your total up to 108.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Well played, Henry, that fell nicely for you.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27That's the battle after he'd taken his huge army
0:17:27 > 0:17:29- and the elephants over the Alps. - Oh, OK.
0:17:29 > 0:17:34The Romans lost, they say, about 70,000 men in that battle.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37It's in what is now Puglia in modern-day Italy.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42- Now, Duncan.- Yes. - Hero of Round One last time.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46- Thank you, thank you.- By hero, I mean the high-scorer of last time.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49- Thank you.- Duncan, remind us what you do by day?
0:17:49 > 0:17:51I'm also a minister from Dunblane.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54You're also attached to a football team?
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Yes, Stirling Albion Football Club.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00- Do you ever travel with them on the bus?- I go to every match.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03- Every match. - I go to training every Thursday.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07and just have a fantastic time, a great bunch of lads.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11And do you interact in a faith way with them?
0:18:11 > 0:18:13It's actually just being able to do life with them,
0:18:13 > 0:18:16because there's lots of pressures in football.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19People don't realise that, you know, guys come under a lot of pressure,
0:18:19 > 0:18:21especially if they're not playing.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25- Yeah.- And they just need another guy around that they can talk to.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28You don't have to do God stuff - sometimes it comes up -
0:18:28 > 0:18:30but just someone to talk to, you know?
0:18:30 > 0:18:32That's a good point. Very good.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34So, Duncan, you are on 70.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38- You have to score 55 or less. - Yes.- Talk us through the board.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41I know the top one - Julius Caesar.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44I'm not really too sure of the second one.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47I haven't a clue about the bottom one.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50But the Scottish hero who defeated the English
0:18:50 > 0:18:51at the Battle of Stirling Bridge
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- was William Wallace. - William Wallace, says Duncan.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57Here is your red line. If you can get below that with William Wallace,
0:18:57 > 0:18:59you are through to Round Two.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02How many of our 100 people said William Wallace?
0:19:05 > 0:19:06It's right.
0:19:08 > 0:19:09Oh!
0:19:09 > 0:19:14Oh, Duncan, 59! 129...
0:19:14 > 0:19:17..is your total.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21- Oh, but it's a heroic way to go out, though, Duncan.- It is.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23That is the perfect way to leave us, isn't it?
0:19:23 > 0:19:26Yeah, William Wallace. It's very unlucky.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29Julius Caesar would not have saved you, he scored too many points.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31He would have scored 77.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33This next answer would have saved you, though.
0:19:33 > 0:19:34Surely the most famous Hun of all.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37- Attila? - Attila, yeah, Attila the Hun.
0:19:37 > 0:19:38And it would have scored you 44.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40And the bottom one is the best answer on the board.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43- Even Henry can't get it. And it's...- I would guess...
0:19:43 > 0:19:45I'm just going to pull a name out. Zilla.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48- No, it was Zenobia. - Oh, so close.- Zenobia.
0:19:48 > 0:19:49That would've scored you 3 points.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Zenobia sounds like the sort of thing
0:19:51 > 0:19:53you would do a voice-over for on television.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56- Ah, medical.- Just someone going... "Oh... I can't..."
0:19:56 > 0:19:59- HE STRAINS - It goes, "You need Zenobia."
0:19:59 > 0:20:02LAUGHTER Hannah and I could do it together.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04- Yeah, that'd be great.- Yeah.- Yeah. - Very nice.
0:20:04 > 0:20:05You can do the
0:20:05 > 0:20:08- "Please follow all the instructions before application".- Yeah.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- "For external use only." - "Terms and conditions apply."
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Oh, Lordy. Thank you very much. Anyway, sorry, there we are.
0:20:14 > 0:20:15So, at the end of our first round,
0:20:15 > 0:20:17the pair who we are sending home with their...
0:20:17 > 0:20:19Oh, I'm so sorry. It's been two Round Ones.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22- We haven't seen enough of you, Duncan and Gary.- True.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25We have not seen enough. Come back in... Duncan, you wear a beard,
0:20:25 > 0:20:28- Gary, you take yours off and... - Sneak in.- ..play under pseudonyms.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31We'll never know. But it's been great having you on.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Thank you so much for playing. Duncan and Gary.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35APPLAUSE
0:20:35 > 0:20:38But for the remaining three players, it's now time for Round Two.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46So we are down to three pairs.
0:20:46 > 0:20:47Very well done, everyone,
0:20:47 > 0:20:50we made it through that round of warriors.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52But Sara and Hannah, our lowest-scoring pair there.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54In fact, Hannah, I think you were our lowest individual with 8...
0:20:54 > 0:20:56- Wahey!- ..for Leonidas. Very well done indeed.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58In a very high-scoring round, I have to say,
0:20:58 > 0:21:00that's a standout score, so well done to you.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Anyway, best of luck to all three pairs.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Our category for Round Two this afternoon is...
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:21:11 > 0:21:12who's going to go second?
0:21:12 > 0:21:14And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:21:27 > 0:21:30..as they could. Richard.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Yeah, we're looking for the title of any Beatles UK top 40 single,
0:21:33 > 0:21:36according to the Official Charts Company,
0:21:36 > 0:21:39that contains one of those letters, please. That's up till August 2016.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41Thank you very much indeed.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Henry.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46OK, er...
0:21:46 > 0:21:49My knowledge of the Beatles isn't extensive,
0:21:49 > 0:21:51so I'm going to have to go for one of the more obvious ones.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54- I'm going to go with Love Me Do. - Love Me Do, says Henry.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Let's see how many of our 100 people said Love Me Do.
0:21:59 > 0:22:00It's right.
0:22:03 > 0:22:0441.
0:22:06 > 0:22:07Not bad.
0:22:07 > 0:22:0941 for Love Me Do.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Yeah, the Beatles' first-ever single in 1962.
0:22:11 > 0:22:12It got to number 17.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15Three different drummers played on different recordings of it.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Thank you very much, Richard.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20Now, Andy...
0:22:20 > 0:22:23I'm going to go for an early one that might not be said.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26I'm going to go for Roll Over Beethoven.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Roll Over Beethoven, says Andy. Let's see if that's right,
0:22:29 > 0:22:32let's see how many of our 100 people said Roll Over Beethoven.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Ooh.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Bad luck, Andy. I'm afraid that scores you
0:22:39 > 0:22:42- 100 points, takes your total up to 100.- Yeah, sorry, Andy.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Not a UK Beatles single, I'm afraid.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Thanks, Richard. Now, then, Hannah.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Ooh, yes, there's a salutary lesson for us all.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Mmm. Erm...
0:22:53 > 0:22:54I'm not 100% sure it's a single,
0:22:54 > 0:22:58but I'm going to go for Eight Days A Week.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59Eight Days A Week, says Hannah.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Ooh.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10See, that's the difficulty here, isn't it?
0:23:10 > 0:23:12I'm afraid another incorrect answer, scores you 100 points.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14It's going very well so far, everybody.
0:23:14 > 0:23:18- Exemplary work on the letters. - Oh, yes.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Yeah, they've all been in there, but, yeah, only one single so far.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23Right, let's have a look at the scores.
0:23:23 > 0:23:2441, the best score of the pass, Henry.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27Very well done indeed. Love Me Do was superb,
0:23:27 > 0:23:29because then we go up to 100, where we find
0:23:29 > 0:23:30Hannah and Sara and Andy and Cherry.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33So, Sara and Cherry, I suggest it'll be between the pair of you
0:23:33 > 0:23:35to see who stays and who leaves at the end of the round,
0:23:35 > 0:23:36so best of luck with that.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38We are going to come back down the line.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:23:43 > 0:23:47OK, so, Sara, in preparation for this little local derby
0:23:47 > 0:23:50between the far two podiums...
0:23:50 > 0:23:51I really don't know.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54You're looking for the name of any Beatles UK top-40 single
0:23:54 > 0:23:57that contained one of the letters L, P or S.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00I don't even know if this is a track, let alone a single,
0:24:00 > 0:24:02but I'm just going to say it anyway.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04I Am The Walrus.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06I Am The Walrus.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08Let's see if it's right, and let's see how many of
0:24:08 > 0:24:10our 100 people said I Am The Walrus.
0:24:13 > 0:24:14Oh!
0:24:14 > 0:24:17I'm afraid another incorrect answer scores you 100 points,
0:24:17 > 0:24:18takes your total up to 200.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22No, that's an album track, as well, I'm afraid, I Am The Walrus.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Poor Ringo Starr watching this at home.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27- I know. Sorry, Ringo. - Sorry, Ringo.- I'm sorry.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30- Thank you very much indeed. Now, Cherry.- Hi.- Cherry.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33You have a target here, which is 99 or less.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36Erm... I'm not sure if it's an album or a track,
0:24:36 > 0:24:39but I'm going to say Yellow Submarine.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41- Yellow Submarine, says Cherry. - It'll probably be quite high.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Here is your red line.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45If you get below that with Yellow Submarine,
0:24:45 > 0:24:46you are through to the next round.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48How many people said Yellow Submarine?
0:24:50 > 0:24:51- It's right!- Yes!
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Look at that, it's a single! Down it goes.
0:24:54 > 0:24:5550 is what it scores.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Takes your total up to 150.
0:24:57 > 0:24:58Very well done indeed.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03More importantly, Cherry, you've really made Ringo Starr's day,
0:25:03 > 0:25:06- cos that was one of his. - Hey, hey!- He's over the moon.
0:25:06 > 0:25:07He is suddenly, suddenly really happy.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Yeah, he's kind of going, "I'll tell you who's overrated -
0:25:10 > 0:25:13- "Lennon and McCartney." That's what Ringo's saying.- Yeah.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Thanks very much indeed. Now, then, Dougie.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Good news, you're through. Even if you score 100,
0:25:18 > 0:25:21which, on balance, I'm saying is probably the likelihood.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24- Thanks for the confidence.- You are through to the next round.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26No, I'm just saying statistically -
0:25:26 > 0:25:28nothing to do with your Beatles know-how.
0:25:28 > 0:25:29What would you like to go for?
0:25:29 > 0:25:32To be honest, considering what's gone before,
0:25:32 > 0:25:34I'll probably find out it is an album track now,
0:25:34 > 0:25:37but I'll stand by my original answer, which was Yesterday.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Yesterday, says Dougie. Yesterday.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41Let's see how many of our 100 people said Yesterday.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44No red line, for the lovely reason that you're already through.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48It's right.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Look at that. Down to 16.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57Our lowest score of the round by quite a margin.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00Very well done indeed, Dougie, taking your total up to 57.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Very well played. I'll take you through all the low-scorers
0:26:02 > 0:26:04before we get to the pointless answers.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06There are four pointless answers out there.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09You'd have got ten points for A Hard Day's Night.
0:26:09 > 0:26:118 for Lady Madonna. 7 for Paperback Writer.
0:26:11 > 0:26:136 for I Want To Hold Your Hand.
0:26:13 > 0:26:163 points for Something, Can't Buy Me Love.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18You'd have got 2 points for Day Tripper,
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Back In The USSR and I Feel Fine.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23You'd have got 1 point for Free As A Bird, The Ballad Of John And Yoko,
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Magical Mystery Tour EP and Hello, Goodbye.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28Four Pointless answers. Let's take a look at them.
0:26:29 > 0:26:30Ain't She Sweet.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34Baby It's You and Real Love, which were the ones released in the '90s.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36And goodness me, very well done if you said The Beatles Movie Medley,
0:26:36 > 0:26:39which was a top-ten hit from 1982.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41I'll take you through other scorers.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43Yellow Submarine was the biggest scorer of all.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45You'd have got 11 for All You Need Is Love,
0:26:45 > 0:26:4717, Strawberry Fields Forever, 19, Penny Lane,
0:26:47 > 0:26:5020 for Let It Be and She Loves You,
0:26:50 > 0:26:5223 for Eleanor Rigby,
0:26:52 > 0:26:5436 for Please Please Me,
0:26:54 > 0:26:57and Help would've scored you 41.
0:26:57 > 0:26:58Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00So we are at the end of our second round.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03We have to say goodbye to one of our pairs, and that pair, oh...
0:27:03 > 0:27:06- I know.- It's the stars of Round One. I can't believe it, Sara and Hannah.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09- It's a game of two halves.- Yeah.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12Very much. And the 200 club is now yours.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15- I feel proud, if anything. - Yes.- Yeah.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17- You have entry to that august shed. - Illustrious.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Anyway, it's been lovely having you on.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23We'll see you again next time, Sara and Hannah. Thanks very much.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:27:25 > 0:27:28But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for our head-to-head.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35Congratulations, Dougie and Henry, Cherry and Andy.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38You are now one step closer to the final and a chance to play for our
0:27:38 > 0:27:42jackpot, which currently stands at £2,000.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48Well, this is exciting. We've made it to the head-to-head,
0:27:48 > 0:27:51which means you can now confer before you give your answers.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53In this round, the first pair to win two questions
0:27:53 > 0:27:55will be playing for that jackpot.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Dougie and Henry, you've gone one step better than last time.
0:27:58 > 0:27:59You were here in the head-to-head,
0:27:59 > 0:28:02but you are now our low-scoring pair, so well done.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Cherry and Andy, I'm going to say it's been a mixed career in points.
0:28:05 > 0:28:10- Yeah, just scraped through. - You had a couple of "phew!" moments.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13- Roll Over Beethoven, Andy.- Yeah. - Works in a record shop.
0:28:13 > 0:28:14ALEXANDER CLEARS THROAT Um...
0:28:14 > 0:28:17- I know, I'll never live it down. - That was unfair to bring up.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20But, yes, best of luck to both pairs.
0:28:20 > 0:28:21Let's play the head-to-head.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29Here is your first question, and it concerns...
0:28:33 > 0:28:34Richard.
0:28:34 > 0:28:38Yeah, the great Steve Backshall does a lovely show on CBBC where he tries
0:28:38 > 0:28:40to track down the 60 deadliest creatures in the world.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43We're going to show you pictures of five of those creatures now.
0:28:43 > 0:28:45Can you tell us what they are, please?
0:28:45 > 0:28:48Thank you very much. Let's reveal our five deadly creatures,
0:28:48 > 0:28:49and here they are. We've got...
0:29:21 > 0:29:26There we are, five deadly creatures. Dougie and Henry, you will go first.
0:29:26 > 0:29:27- WHISPERS:- Dart frog is B.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29- WHISPERS:- Go for it, then. Do what you think's best.
0:29:29 > 0:29:30- I only know D.- You only know D?
0:29:30 > 0:29:35- I know D, so go with... - I don't know E or C.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37Go with whatever you're comfortable with.
0:29:37 > 0:29:39OK, I know a few of them.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44I can't get what the second word of E is, so I'm going to go B,
0:29:44 > 0:29:46which I think is the poison dart frog.
0:29:46 > 0:29:47Poison dart frog.
0:29:48 > 0:29:53OK, now, then, Cherry and Andy, can you talk us through that board?
0:29:53 > 0:29:57A is redback spider.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00C...I know it's an eel, but I can't... I'm not sure what.
0:30:00 > 0:30:05- D is Komodo dragon.- Komodo dragon. - Yeah?
0:30:05 > 0:30:08- We'll go for D, Komodo dragon. - Komodo dragon.
0:30:08 > 0:30:11So, we have poison dart frog, and we have Komodo dragon.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13Dougie and Henry went for poison dart frog.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15Let's see how many of our 100 people said that for B.
0:30:18 > 0:30:19It's right.
0:30:24 > 0:30:2514.
0:30:29 > 0:30:30That's a good score.
0:30:30 > 0:30:33Now, Cherry and Andy, have gone for Komodo dragon for D.
0:30:33 > 0:30:34Let's see if that's right,
0:30:34 > 0:30:37let's see how many of our 100 people said Komodo dragon.
0:30:39 > 0:30:40It's right.
0:30:42 > 0:30:4460 for Komodo dragon.
0:30:44 > 0:30:48That means, Dougie and Henry, after one question, you are up 1-0.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51You know, two of our 100 said "kimono dragon", by the way,
0:30:51 > 0:30:53which is less good.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56A, you're quite right, is the redback spider.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58Not a bad score for that - 23 points.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00You find them in Australia, amongst other places.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02C, it's certainly an eel.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04- Cinder?- Conger eel.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07- Oh, it's a conger...- Absolutely. Would have scored 42.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09- Great fun at wedding parties.- Yes! LAUGHTER
0:31:09 > 0:31:11- LAUGHS:- Now...this one is a tough one.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14Everyone at home is just very good at filling in words.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16- Yeah.- You can all see it's "giant". - "Giant".
0:31:16 > 0:31:18- But what is it?- "Scalapendra"!
0:31:18 > 0:31:21- It's almost exactly right. Scolopendra.- No!
0:31:21 > 0:31:23The giant scolopendra is exactly right.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26- No! I had scalapendra, but, yeah... - Oh, I wouldn't have given it to you.
0:31:26 > 0:31:27No, I think I would have done.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30And giant scolopendra would have been a pointless answer.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33It's a poisonous centipede.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36- They hang off cave walls and eat bats.- Oh, no.- Yeah.
0:31:36 > 0:31:39- Even our friends, the wombat? - Even... No, not wombats.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42Wombats are the only bats that are safe from the giant scolopendra.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44- Oh, phew.- They're 70-foot long. - LAUGHTER
0:31:44 > 0:31:47They're not. They're not. Scary if they were.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49Scary. They're scary enough.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51- Yeah, they are scary. - I don't like that.
0:31:51 > 0:31:52Lovely sort of lacquer finish, though.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54Oh, it looks beautiful.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56- If you had that on a brooch, you'd be very happy.- Very!
0:31:56 > 0:31:59- But if you had it on your ceiling, you'd be less happy.- Less happy.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02Unless you had a bat problem, in which case, you'd be happy.
0:32:02 > 0:32:03Thank you very much indeed.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05So here comes your second question, Cherry and Andy.
0:32:05 > 0:32:06You get to answer first,
0:32:06 > 0:32:09but you have to win to stay in the game, so best of luck.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11Our second question today is all about...
0:32:14 > 0:32:15- Oh...- Copenhagen.
0:32:15 > 0:32:18Yeah, simply five clues now to facts about Copenhagen.
0:32:18 > 0:32:20Who can...? Oh, we said it differently.
0:32:20 > 0:32:23- Kobenhavn.- Kobenhavn...is how it should be, really.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26- Yeah, really. - Which is the most obscure answer?
0:32:26 > 0:32:30There we are. OK, let's reveal our five facts, and here they are.
0:32:54 > 0:32:56I'm going to read those all again.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19There we are. Cherry and Andy will go first.
0:33:19 > 0:33:20- Which one?- Erm...
0:33:20 > 0:33:23- Do you want me to go for...? - You pick. I don't know.
0:33:23 > 0:33:28I think...I'm going to go for the harbour sculpture.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30I think it's The Little Mermaid.
0:33:30 > 0:33:34The Little Mermaid, say Cherry and Andy. The Little Mermaid.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37Now then, Dougie and Henry, do you want to talk us through that board?
0:33:37 > 0:33:40- The country is Denmark.- Yeah.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42The only other one we know...
0:33:42 > 0:33:44Well, I don't know about you,
0:33:44 > 0:33:46but the only one I know is the footballer.
0:33:46 > 0:33:48- Peter Schmeichel.- Peter Schmeichel.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50- So I think we're going to go for that one?- Yeah.
0:33:50 > 0:33:51You'll go for Peter Schmeichel.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54So we have the Little Mermaid, and Peter Schmeichel.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Cherry and Andy said The Little Mermaid.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58Let's see how many of our 100 people went for The Little Mermaid.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02It's right.
0:34:06 > 0:34:07Not bad at all.
0:34:07 > 0:34:0930 for The Little Mermaid.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14Meanwhile, Dougie and Hendry have gone for Peter Schmeichel.
0:34:14 > 0:34:15Let's see if that's right,
0:34:15 > 0:34:18let's see how of 100 people said Peter Schmeichel.
0:34:20 > 0:34:21It is Peter Schmeichel.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26And it wins. Look at that!
0:34:26 > 0:34:29Peter Schmeichel. That's 19. Very well done indeed.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32And that means, Dougie and Henry, after only two questions,
0:34:32 > 0:34:34you are through to the final 2-0.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36Yeah, very nicely played.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Absolutely right about Denmark, at the top there.
0:34:38 > 0:34:40That would've scored you too many points.
0:34:40 > 0:34:42That's 53. Now, this second one,
0:34:42 > 0:34:45it's something we've heard of in the UK.
0:34:45 > 0:34:46I'm sure...
0:34:46 > 0:34:49- It's the Tivoli Gardens.- Ah!
0:34:49 > 0:34:51That would've scored you 11 points.
0:34:51 > 0:34:52And now, the Palace...
0:34:52 > 0:34:55I... Is it Frederiksborg?
0:34:55 > 0:34:57- It's not.- Oh, that's annoying.
0:34:57 > 0:35:00It is Amalienborg, Amalienborg Palace.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02Very well done if you said that, it is a pointless answer.
0:35:02 > 0:35:04Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06So the pair leaving us at the end of the round,
0:35:06 > 0:35:07Cherry and Andy, I'm so sorry.
0:35:07 > 0:35:09You did very well to get through to the head-to-head.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11Nothing wrong with either of your answers.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14I thought The Little Mermaid was going to win that one for you,
0:35:14 > 0:35:17but Peter Schmeichel was slightly more elusive than I anticipated.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20But we'll see you again next time - look forward to that very much.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22In the meantime, thanks so much, Cherry and Andy.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26But for Dougie and Henry, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:31 > 0:35:32Congratulations Dougie and Henry.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34You have seen off all the competition,
0:35:34 > 0:35:37and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:43 > 0:35:46You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:35:46 > 0:35:50And at the end of today, the jackpot is standing at £2,000.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52There we are.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56Well, do you know what? It's been a faultless performance.
0:35:56 > 0:35:59Very solid, very consistent.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01Last time, you made it to the head-to-head
0:36:01 > 0:36:03as not the lowest-scoring couple.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06This time, you made it through as the lowest-scoring couple.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09This time you are through 2-0, which is incredibly impressive.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12What would you like to see come up on the board?
0:36:12 > 0:36:15- Geography, flags. - Flags would be pretty good.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18I'd like comic books or anime, or something like that...
0:36:18 > 0:36:20OK, well, you know what happens.
0:36:20 > 0:36:21- Four things go up on the board... - Yeah.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23Sometimes they look quite forbidding.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26Behind each one there's usually something that you can have a go at.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29- Let's just hope it's something that you really like.- Yeah.
0:36:29 > 0:36:31We will see what today's choice looks like.
0:36:39 > 0:36:42- "The" Books? - Yeah, that's probably the best bet.
0:36:42 > 0:36:45- Go with books, then?- Yeah.- I think we're going to go with "The" Books.
0:36:45 > 0:36:50- "The" Books.- Yeah.- Very brave. - OK, very best of luck.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52We are looking for any novel published up to
0:36:52 > 0:36:55the beginning of September 2016, please,
0:36:55 > 0:36:59by Roald Dahl that has the word "the" in its title,
0:36:59 > 0:37:02by John le Carre that has the word "the" in the title,
0:37:02 > 0:37:06or any Man Booker Prize-winning book with "the" in the title.
0:37:06 > 0:37:10So, Roald Dahl, John le Carre completed novels, please,
0:37:10 > 0:37:13or any Booker Prize winning novel with "the" in the title.
0:37:13 > 0:37:14Very best of luck.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17Ooh, that's paid off, I think. At least I hope it has.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Well, anyway, as always, you've up to one minute
0:37:19 > 0:37:20to come up with three answers,
0:37:20 > 0:37:23and all you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those answers
0:37:23 > 0:37:25- to be pointless. Are you ready? - Yeah.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28OK. Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33So, Roald Dahl?
0:37:33 > 0:37:35You've got The Twits, you've got The BFG,
0:37:35 > 0:37:37- you've got James And The Giant Peach.- That's... Oh, yes.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42- Do you know anything of John le Carre?- John le Carre...
0:37:44 > 0:37:47Which is the one about Roald Dahl's life?
0:37:47 > 0:37:49Boy... Something about a boy.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52John le Carre, I don't know.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54- Booker Prize?- Booker Prize...
0:37:54 > 0:37:57Cos if we don't know anything, we may as well go back to Roald Dahl.
0:37:57 > 0:37:58I don't know, really.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Probably worth going back to Roald Dahl, to be honest.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02James And The Giant Peach might not be as obvious.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04- Because of "the".- Yeah.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09- Trying to think... The BFG... - Got anything better?
0:38:09 > 0:38:12The Twits... The Witches.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14Go for that. Don't go for The Twits.
0:38:14 > 0:38:17- No, The Twits is too obvious. - Anything else?
0:38:17 > 0:38:20- There is one about Roald Dahl's life growing up...- 10 seconds left.
0:38:20 > 0:38:22..but I can't remember what it was called.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23Probably doesn't have a "the" in it.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26- Any of his adult...?- I don't know any of his adult stuff.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28So The Witches, BFG, and James And The Giant Peach?
0:38:28 > 0:38:30Can go for that. None of them will be pointless.
0:38:30 > 0:38:33OK, that is your time up. I'm afraid I now need your three answers.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36If you can say which category you're answering, that'll be great.
0:38:36 > 0:38:37We're going to go with Roald Dahl books,
0:38:37 > 0:38:40I think... Yeah, I think all of them are from that.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43We're going to go with James And The Giant Peach...
0:38:43 > 0:38:45James And The Giant Peach.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48- The Witches.- The Witches. - The Witches.
0:38:48 > 0:38:51- And...- The Big Friendly Giant. - The BFG.- And The BFG.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:53 > 0:38:56James And The Giant Peach, or The Witches?
0:38:56 > 0:38:58Hopefully James And The Giant Peach, cos it's not at the beginning...
0:38:58 > 0:39:00OK, yeah, we'll put that there.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02- I don't think... - Least likely to be pointless?
0:39:02 > 0:39:05- BFG.- BFG, probably.- OK, well, let's put those on the board
0:39:05 > 0:39:07in that order, then, and here they are.
0:39:07 > 0:39:12We have got The BFG, The Witches, and James And The Giant Peach.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15Well, very good luck. Three good answers on the board there.
0:39:15 > 0:39:18Now, if one of these turns out to be pointless and wins you that jackpot,
0:39:18 > 0:39:21what would you like to do with it, £2,000, Dougie?
0:39:21 > 0:39:24Well, I'm a student, so funds are generally quite tight.
0:39:24 > 0:39:28However, I do have family in Africa who I'd like to try and visit.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Very good indeed. Henry?
0:39:30 > 0:39:32My choir is going to Poland next year
0:39:32 > 0:39:35so it'll go towards that, probably.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37Will be my last course, so...
0:39:37 > 0:39:39Well, two lovely things to spend your money on.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42Let's hope one of these answers wins that jackpot for you.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Your first answer was The BFG.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46In all three cases, we are looking for Roald Dahl books
0:39:46 > 0:39:48with a "the" in the title.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51If The BFG is pointless, it will win you £2,000.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54Let's see how many of our 100 people said The BFG.
0:39:57 > 0:39:58Well, it's right.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00It just has to go all the way down to zero
0:40:00 > 0:40:02and you can leave you with £2,000.
0:40:02 > 0:40:04Down we go through the 40s, into the 30...
0:40:04 > 0:40:06Oh, 40.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08We stop on 40 for The BFG.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13As you say, there's been a big BFG film recently,
0:40:13 > 0:40:16so I guess it's quite at the forefront of people's minds.
0:40:16 > 0:40:20- There is a Witches film as well. - Your next answer was The Witches.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Again, it's a Roald Dahl book with "the" in the title.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24It will win you £2,000 if it's pointless.
0:40:24 > 0:40:28Let's see how many of our 100 people said The Witches.
0:40:31 > 0:40:32Well, it's right.
0:40:32 > 0:40:35The BFG took us all the way down to 40.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37The Witches now takes us...
0:40:37 > 0:40:38..past 40, down we go,
0:40:38 > 0:40:40through the 20s, into the teens...
0:40:40 > 0:40:41Still going down,
0:40:41 > 0:40:4413 for The Witches. This is exciting.
0:40:46 > 0:40:48All moving in the right direction, guys.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50Let's hope your third and final answer
0:40:50 > 0:40:52can take you all the way down to zero.
0:40:52 > 0:40:53You've gone for James And The Giant Peach.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56Again, we're looking for Roald Dahl books with "the" in the title.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58This was your most confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00Let's see if it is pointless.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02As you say, the "the" isn't at the beginning,
0:41:02 > 0:41:04- so maybe people didn't think of it. - Yeah, hopefully.
0:41:04 > 0:41:07Let's hope it's pointless - it'll win you £2,000 if it is.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10Let's see how many people said James And The Giant Peach.
0:41:12 > 0:41:14It's right.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17Well, we went down to 40 with The BFG,
0:41:17 > 0:41:20The Witches took us all the way down to 13,
0:41:20 > 0:41:21James And The Giant Peach passes 40.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23Down we go into the teens...
0:41:23 > 0:41:24Oh, it's 18.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32Well, three good answers there, nothing wrong with any of those.
0:41:32 > 0:41:34Nice low scores for nearly all of them.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37Annoyingly, though, we didn't find that pointless answer you needed,
0:41:37 > 0:41:40so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £2,000.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42That will roll over onto the next show.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44But such a strong performance across two shows,
0:41:44 > 0:41:47very consistent low scores from you, so very well done.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49And you get a Pointless trophy to take home in recognition of that,
0:41:49 > 0:41:51so well done, Dougie and Henry.
0:41:56 > 0:41:57Yeah, unlucky, gents.
0:41:57 > 0:42:00Very gettable answers in all three categories here, I think.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02We'll start with Roald Dahl books.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06The Giraffe And The Pelly And Me, a pointless answer -
0:42:06 > 0:42:08it's got two "the"s in it as well.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10The Gremlins, The Magic Finger, The Minpins.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12Also could've had The Enormous Crocodile,
0:42:12 > 0:42:14and The Vicar Of Nibbleswick as well.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16All of those were pointless answers.
0:42:16 > 0:42:18Very well done if you got one of those.
0:42:18 > 0:42:19John le Carre, my favourite author.
0:42:19 > 0:42:22I've just reread this first one, Call For The Dead.
0:42:22 > 0:42:23Such a great book, his first novel.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29You also could've had The Looking Glass War - that's my favourite.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31The Mission Song, The Naive And Sentimental Lover,
0:42:31 > 0:42:35and The Secret Pilgrim. Those are the eight pointless answers there.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38And Man Booker prizes - four enormous-selling novels here.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Bring Up The Bodies by Hilary Mantel,
0:42:41 > 0:42:43Margaret Atwood's The Blind Assassin.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48Loads and loads of big novels here. The God Of Small Things.
0:42:48 > 0:42:50Everything that's ever won the Booker Prize
0:42:50 > 0:42:52with "the" in the title, apart from The White Tiger,
0:42:52 > 0:42:54The Narrow Road To The Deep North, and The Sea, The Sea,
0:42:54 > 0:42:56everything else was a pointless answer,
0:42:56 > 0:42:58so very well done if you got one at home.
0:42:58 > 0:43:01Thank you very much indeed, Richard, and thank you, Dougie and Henry.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03I'm sorry you didn't manage to win the jackpot today.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06That means it rolls over onto the next show,
0:43:06 > 0:43:08when we will be playing for £3,000.
0:43:11 > 0:43:13Join us next time to see if someone can win it.
0:43:13 > 0:43:15- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:15 > 0:43:17And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
0:43:17 > 0:43:21APPLAUSE
