0:00:18 > 0:00:20APPLAUSE

0:00:20 > 0:00:22CHEERING

0:00:26 > 0:00:28Thank you. Hello and welcome to Pointless.

0:00:28 > 0:00:33I'm Alexander Armstrong and this is the quiz show where success is bred from obscurity.

0:00:33 > 0:00:36Let's meet today's players. APPLAUSE

0:00:38 > 0:00:41A very warm welcome to you, Andy and Paul.

0:00:41 > 0:00:43How do you two know each other?

0:00:43 > 0:00:45Well, we're from Blackpool in Lancashire

0:00:45 > 0:00:48and we met, ironically, doing a pub quiz.

0:00:48 > 0:00:51We went to a pub which we'd never been in before.

0:00:51 > 0:00:55We were at opposite ends of the bar. Probably 20-odd teams and...

0:00:55 > 0:00:58- Did you win?- Yes.

0:00:58 > 0:00:59- No, did you?- Yes.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02And Paul said, "You can be in my pub quiz team."

0:01:02 > 0:01:04- I think it was the other way round. - It was.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07- You've been quizzing ever since? - We have.- Yes.

0:01:07 > 0:01:08Oh, look out.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11- Well, very best of luck to the pair of you.- Thanks.

0:01:11 > 0:01:15Nathan and Berni are our second pair. How do you two know each other?

0:01:15 > 0:01:19We met about eight years ago. We used to work together at a college.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22Berni was a librarian, I was the network manager.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25I used to have to walk through her library to get to my office.

0:01:25 > 0:01:31- How many times did she tell you to "Shhh!" - She's a new-style librarian.

0:01:31 > 0:01:32More noise, more noise!

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Anyway, best of luck to the pair of you this afternoon.

0:01:37 > 0:01:41Welcome to Cathy and Annie. How do you two know each other?

0:01:41 > 0:01:44Hello. We've known each other many years.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47We met when we worked together as ambulance women

0:01:47 > 0:01:49- about 25 years ago?- Yeah, 25.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52- Are you still ambulance women? - Well, Cathy is.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54- Are you?- Yeah.

0:01:54 > 0:01:59- Not the emergency. - So what's the other ambulance?

0:01:59 > 0:02:02- The non-emergency ambulance. - Yeah.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04- I wasn't aware there was such a thing.- Oh, yes.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08- Very good. Where are you from? - St Albans.- St Albans.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12- And Cathy's from Redbourn, which is just up the road.- I see.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14- Very best of luck to you. - Thank you.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Hiba and Carl, you were on the show last time.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final. How did you do?

0:02:20 > 0:02:22Er, well, not too well.

0:02:22 > 0:02:26We went out in the first round. Got both our questions wrong.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29You know, you didn't... Yeah, you did, you did.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32Essentially, what you did was you got both your questions wrong.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34You did exactly the right thing.

0:02:34 > 0:02:38You tried to find something very obscure and nearly right.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41To be fair, they didn't do exactly the right thing.

0:02:41 > 0:02:45- No but the spirit in which they did it...- Yes.

0:02:45 > 0:02:46- ..was exactly right.- Yeah.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49They just chose poorly.

0:02:49 > 0:02:53However, I predict today, finalists.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56- Ooh!- That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.- OK.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58- So, yeah, no pressure or anything. - No.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02We'll be finding out more about all of you throughout the show

0:03:02 > 0:03:07but I must now introduce the man who is the Pointless compendium of facts and figures.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10- He is my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.

0:03:14 > 0:03:18I've gone out on a limb and I've tipped Hiba and Carl.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20Was that a wise thing to do?

0:03:20 > 0:03:23They're the only ones we know anything about,

0:03:23 > 0:03:27so if you had picked any of the others, it would have been a shot in the dark.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30- Hiba was furious at Carl last time. - She was.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33She puts this smile on and she plays it quite cool

0:03:33 > 0:03:36but in her eyes, she was furious.

0:03:36 > 0:03:40I suspect they will do rather well. I think they were unlucky.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Look at her, pretending to laugh.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45Behind it, you can see exactly what's going on.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48But three new pairs.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52And statistically, we've never had a pair from Blackpool on the show who have lost.

0:03:53 > 0:03:56- No pressure, then.- We've never had a pair from Blackpool who've won

0:03:56 > 0:03:59because you're the first pair from Blackpool.

0:03:59 > 0:04:00Very best of luck to you.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03Thanks very much, Richard.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06Now, we put all our questions to 100 people before the show

0:04:06 > 0:04:09but we're after the obscure answers that they didn't get.

0:04:09 > 0:04:14The fewer people who got the answer, the fewer points awarded, the better the chance of winning.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17To stay in the game with a chance to win our jackpot,

0:04:17 > 0:04:19our players need to score as few points as possible.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Everyone's looking to find a pointless answer,

0:04:22 > 0:04:25an answer that none of our 100 people gave,

0:04:25 > 0:04:27and each time that happens, we add 250 quid to the jackpot.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30Val and Peter won the jackpot last time,

0:04:30 > 0:04:33so today's jackpot starts off at £1,000.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35There it is. APPLAUSE

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Let's play Pointless.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47In the first round, each of you must give me one answer

0:04:47 > 0:04:50and you cannot confer with your partner.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53The team with the highest score will be eliminated.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56All right, our first category this afternoon is...

0:04:58 > 0:05:00food and drink.

0:05:01 > 0:05:05Food and drink. Decide in your pairs who goes first and who goes second.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:05:13 > 0:05:18We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many types of coffee

0:05:18 > 0:05:20as they could.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22- Richard? - Yeah, quite simple, this one.

0:05:22 > 0:05:26All the correct answers in this round are ways in which coffee can be served.

0:05:26 > 0:05:30You all drew lots before the show. Andy and Paul, you get to go first.

0:05:30 > 0:05:34In this round, we're giving you seven possible answers

0:05:34 > 0:05:35for each pass.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38Your first set of seven answers reads like this.

0:05:50 > 0:05:54I'm going to read them once more because it's fun.

0:06:01 > 0:06:05Now, I can tell you that at least one of those answers is pointless

0:06:05 > 0:06:08but there is also at least one incorrect answer on the board.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Pick one of those and you score 100 points.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14Andy, are you a coffee connoisseur?

0:06:14 > 0:06:18I like coffee but I've not heard of several, which surprises me.

0:06:18 > 0:06:19Erm...

0:06:19 > 0:06:21I think it's a very difficult one.

0:06:21 > 0:06:26I'm not playing it safe but I think I'll go for mocha.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30OK, you're going to go for mocha. There it is, one up from the bottom.

0:06:30 > 0:06:31Let's see if mocha is correct

0:06:31 > 0:06:33and if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:06:36 > 0:06:37It's good.

0:06:40 > 0:06:4234, Andy. APPLAUSE

0:06:44 > 0:06:47- Not a bad opening score. - Er, yeah, mocha.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Now it refers to a coffee and chocolate drink

0:06:49 > 0:06:52but the mocha bean is an Arabian bean

0:06:52 > 0:06:55that used to come from the Yemeni port of Mocha.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58- Didn't know that, did you? - I had no idea.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00Nor did you want to know it.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03I'm going to store it in the short-term bit of my brain,

0:07:03 > 0:07:07so that by the end of the show, I will have forgotten it.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Mocha. It's a port in Yemen.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13What did you say, Richard? 34. Not a bad score at all.

0:07:13 > 0:07:17Now, Nathan, something tells me you are a bit of a coffee connoisseur.

0:07:17 > 0:07:23- Perhaps it's the colour of your suit. - Well, I don't match the suit...

0:07:23 > 0:07:25No, you do, you look great in it.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28Well, the problem is, I'm not really one for coffee,

0:07:28 > 0:07:29despite working in IT.

0:07:29 > 0:07:34It's a stereotype but this isn't really my kind of thing.

0:07:34 > 0:07:38I think, as tempting as it is to go for the risky one,

0:07:38 > 0:07:42I don't want to put us in a bad position, so I'll play safe,

0:07:42 > 0:07:44not being a coffee lover.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47I think I might have to go for caffe latte.

0:07:47 > 0:07:52Caffe latte. There's a clue in that first word, there, isn't there?

0:07:53 > 0:07:54Possibly, possibly.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Anyway, let's see if it's right

0:07:56 > 0:07:59and if it is, let's hope not too many people said it.

0:07:59 > 0:08:00Caffe latte.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05It is correct!

0:08:05 > 0:08:08APPLAUSE 67, that scores you.

0:08:08 > 0:08:10Not too bad. Richard?

0:08:10 > 0:08:13Is it fair to say, Nathan, that coffee's not your cup of tea?

0:08:13 > 0:08:15Oh, not at all.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18Sorry. Caffe latte means coffee with milk.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20We call them lattes over here

0:08:20 > 0:08:23but if you ask for that in Italy, you just get hot milk.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25Ha-ha-ha. Serve you right.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28Very good, very good.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30- Now, Annie.- Mm.

0:08:30 > 0:08:35Annie, Annie, I can tell you there is at least one pointless answer.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39Nobody's found it yet. Nobody found it. We've had mocha and latte.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Somewhere on there is a pointless answer.

0:08:41 > 0:08:46I think you are the person to truffle that pointless answer out.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48Well, I'm going to be brave

0:08:48 > 0:08:51and I'm going to go for one that I haven't ever heard of

0:08:51 > 0:08:57because there's no point going for the other ones, cos they'll be a huge amount of points.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00- Macchiato sounds like a coffee to me.- You're going to say...

0:09:00 > 0:09:04- No, I'm not going to go for macchiato.- Oh!

0:09:04 > 0:09:08It sounds like a coffee and I think it's up there to fool me.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10I'm going to go for...

0:09:10 > 0:09:13one that sounds nothing like a coffee

0:09:13 > 0:09:15and I think it might be a German one.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18I'm going to go for schweigt stille.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21Schweigt stille.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23I bet it comes in a massive cup.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29- Schweigt stille. That's if it's a coffee.- It sounds like a beer

0:09:29 > 0:09:31but I think...

0:09:31 > 0:09:33But you've gone for it nonetheless.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36Let's see if it's correct and if so, how many people said it.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Schweigt stille.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Oh!

0:09:43 > 0:09:46- Oh, Annie!- Trust me for being cocky.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48No, no, no. You did it in the right spirit.

0:09:48 > 0:09:52- Unfortunately, though, it was completely wrong.- Oh, dear.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54You score the maximum 100 points.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56Schweigt stille, Richard?

0:09:56 > 0:10:00Go for ones that sound like coffees, not beers.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03The Schweigt Stille, Plaudert Nicht is the other name

0:10:03 > 0:10:05of Bach's Coffee Cantata.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08But that wouldn't keep you up all night, though, necessarily.

0:10:09 > 0:10:13- Right. Hiba. - Yeah.- The stage is set.

0:10:13 > 0:10:17There we are. See if you can find a pointless answer.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20There could be another incorrect answer

0:10:20 > 0:10:22and it would be wrong of me not to flag that up.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25However, you are the last person to have this board.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27At least one of those is pointless.

0:10:27 > 0:10:32Well, I'm still not going to go for like a full risk

0:10:32 > 0:10:33just because of last time.

0:10:33 > 0:10:37I know there could be more than one wrong answer.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40But I am pretty sure that macchiato is a coffee,

0:10:40 > 0:10:44so I'm going to say macchiato.

0:10:45 > 0:10:49Macchiato. Second one down. All right. That's your answer.

0:10:49 > 0:10:52Let's see if it's right and if it is, how many people said it.

0:10:55 > 0:10:56It's right.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03APPLAUSE A very good answer, Hiba.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06That scores you six points.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08Richard.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11A macchiato is a shot of coffee topped with steamed milk.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14- Look at the relief on Carl's face. - Phew!

0:11:14 > 0:11:16He's thinking, "I'm going to eat tonight."

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Let's take a look at the rest of the board.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23Filter, obviously, is a type of coffee

0:11:23 > 0:11:26but would have scored you a very low 18 points.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29Now, of those other two, one of those is pointless

0:11:29 > 0:11:31and one of them is incorrect. What do you think?

0:11:31 > 0:11:34Oliang I think is tea and kaldi I think is coffee.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37- Kaldi is an incorrect answer.- No!

0:11:37 > 0:11:41And oliang is the pointless answer. Well done if you got oliang at home.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44OK, we're halfway through the round, so here are the scores.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47Well, what a scoreboard.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51Cathy and Annie, for all the right reasons,

0:11:51 > 0:11:54you are wrong. LAUGHTER

0:11:54 > 0:11:56100 points. You are way out ahead.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58I say that but you're not that way out.

0:11:58 > 0:12:03Nathan scored 67, so, Berni, you've got a little bit of a job to do.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06Cathy, though, you've got a massive job to do.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09You've got to try and find a pointless answer.

0:12:09 > 0:12:12Great answer from Andy and, Hiba, what can I say?

0:12:12 > 0:12:146. Fabulous score.

0:12:14 > 0:12:18Right, can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:12:21 > 0:12:24OK, we're going to put seven more answers on the board.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26We are looking for types of coffee.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28Here they are.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38I'll read them one more time.

0:12:45 > 0:12:50And there is at least one pointless answer amongst those seven.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53There is also at least one incorrect answer,

0:12:53 > 0:12:55so try and avoid that or those.

0:12:55 > 0:12:59- Right, Carl. How well did Hiba do? - Really well.

0:12:59 > 0:13:04Brilliant. You're on six. You only have to score 93 or less.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Knowing that I'm going to play it safe

0:13:06 > 0:13:09and go for one which I know is 100% right,

0:13:09 > 0:13:10so cappuccino.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13OK. Hiba not really impressed by that.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16She's hoping that you might have gone out on a bit of a limb

0:13:17 > 0:13:19but cappuccino, maybe it was a sensible thing to pick.

0:13:19 > 0:13:23There's your red line. If you come below that, you're through to the next round.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26Let's see how many people said cappuccino.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Few enough.

0:13:32 > 0:13:36Good enough. 72. That's taken your total up to 78.

0:13:36 > 0:13:41Yeah, cappuccino, that's strong coffee with frothed milk and steamed milk.

0:13:41 > 0:13:46- Now, Cathy.- Yes.- You remember I said you had a bit of a mountain to climb?

0:13:46 > 0:13:48- I didn't put it precisely like that. - A big one.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50- You've got a job to do.- Mm.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54Annie, for all the right reasons, scored 100 points.

0:13:54 > 0:13:58You are out ahead of the field. You have to score as low as you possibly can

0:13:58 > 0:14:03and hope that either Berni or Paul just make something up

0:14:03 > 0:14:04that's completely wrong.

0:14:04 > 0:14:09- Remember, we are looking for types of coffee.- I will go...

0:14:09 > 0:14:11with...

0:14:12 > 0:14:14kopi tubruk.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16Kopi tubruk.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19- It sounds like coffee. - It sounds as if it should be.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22In Tubruk, maybe that's how they say "copy".

0:14:22 > 0:14:25- Anyway, that's what you're saying. Kopi tubruk.- Yeah.

0:14:25 > 0:14:29Let's see if kopi tubruk is right and if it is, if anyone said it.

0:14:29 > 0:14:30Kopi tubruk.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35- It's right!- Ooh!

0:14:35 > 0:14:37Ooh!

0:14:38 > 0:14:41This could be going all the way down.

0:14:41 > 0:14:42CHEERING

0:14:45 > 0:14:48Spectacular. Kopi tubruk is a pointless answer.

0:14:48 > 0:14:54That adds £250 to the jackpot, taking the total up to 1,250.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58It also scores you nothing, giving you a total of 100 points.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04Yeah, that's the way to do it, Cathy - take a risk and get it right.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07Kopi tubruk is a thick Indonesian coffee.

0:15:07 > 0:15:11Well done. Very well done but is it enough to keep you in the game?

0:15:11 > 0:15:15I hope it is, I really hope it is. We will discover.

0:15:15 > 0:15:19- Berni.- Yes.- Are you a coffee connoisseur?

0:15:19 > 0:15:22- I don't like coffee at all. - Not at all?- No.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24- Not even decaff?- No.

0:15:24 > 0:15:28- The taste or the strange lift? - Horrible. It's the taste.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31- I like tea. A nice bit of Earl Grey. - OK.

0:15:31 > 0:15:35You are on 67. You want to score 32 or less with this answer

0:15:35 > 0:15:38- to make sure you are in the next round.- OK.

0:15:38 > 0:15:45- What's the board looking like to you? - Well, I've seen some of these words before.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48How about Americano? I've heard of that.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50OK. Americano is what you're going to say.

0:15:50 > 0:15:54You are looking to score 32 or less. There is your red line.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57Below that line, you are through to the next round.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00Let's see if Americano is right and if it is, how many people said it.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Well, it's right.

0:16:08 > 0:16:10Ooh, it's good enough! APPLAUSE

0:16:13 > 0:16:16That scores you 20, taking your total up to 87. Americano, Richard.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19It's a strong coffee watered down with hot water.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23And it was invented by Earl Grey. That was his...

0:16:23 > 0:16:26- No, it wasn't.- No, it wasn't!

0:16:27 > 0:16:30Thank you, Richard. Now, Paul. You are on 34.

0:16:30 > 0:16:34If you can score 65 or less with this answer, you are through to the next round.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36Remember, we are looking for types of coffee.

0:16:36 > 0:16:41I don't think the coffee is hammerhead. I don't think that's one.

0:16:41 > 0:16:42Erm...

0:16:42 > 0:16:48One that I've heard of, I'm sure I've heard of it either in Spain or France,

0:16:48 > 0:16:51is cafe au lait.

0:16:51 > 0:16:55- Cafe au lait.- I thought you were going to go for something really exotic, like nilgiri.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58I was thinking, "Good on you, Paul!" but cafe au lait.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01No, it's sensible. You only have to score 65 or less.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04Cafe au lait may do it for you.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06Remember, we are looking for types of coffee.

0:17:06 > 0:17:10There is your red line - if you come below it, you're through.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13Let's see how many people said cafe au lait.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20Good enough.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26APPLAUSE

0:17:27 > 0:17:33Wow! Cafe au lait, bafflingly, scores you just one point,

0:17:33 > 0:17:36bringing you a total of 35. Richard, isn't that extraordinary?

0:17:36 > 0:17:39Cafe au lait is French for coffee with milk.

0:17:39 > 0:17:43The Spanish drink you were thinking of is cafe ole, which is different.

0:17:46 > 0:17:50Er, let's take a look... But only one point. That's amazing.

0:17:50 > 0:17:54Let's take a look at the other ones. Espresso is a big scorer.

0:17:54 > 0:17:55That would have got you 55.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Now, of those other two, nilgiri and hammerhead,

0:17:58 > 0:18:00one is a pointless answer and one is incorrect.

0:18:00 > 0:18:05- What do you think?- I'm going to say hammerhead is a kind of very strong coffee.

0:18:05 > 0:18:09Well done. Hammerhead is indeed a pointless answer.

0:18:09 > 0:18:13It's one shot of very strong coffee topped up with filter coffee.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15Also called a shot in the dark sometimes.

0:18:15 > 0:18:19And nilgiri is incorrect. It's a type of tea.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23There you go. A type of tea. Thanks very much, Richard.

0:18:23 > 0:18:27So at the end of round one, the losing pair with the highest score,

0:18:27 > 0:18:30it's Cathy and Annie and this despite that fantastic pointless answer.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34You've given. That's all you've done, Cathy, you're all give.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36LAUGHTER You've given us £250.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39I know. I'm very generous.

0:18:39 > 0:18:43And you have nothing, nothing, but our thanks to show for it.

0:18:43 > 0:18:47- This round, in so many ways, will leave an unpleasant taste in your mouth.- It will.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50I'm so sorry. It's been wonderful having you on the show.

0:18:50 > 0:18:54But you will of course be back - everyone gets two shots at the Pointless final -

0:18:54 > 0:18:58- and I hope you'll be on for longer. Thank you.- Thank you. - APPLAUSE

0:19:00 > 0:19:03For the remaining three pairs, it's time for round two.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12It's time to find out which two teams will go through

0:19:12 > 0:19:15to the head-to-head on the way to the Pointless final.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17The category for round two is...

0:19:19 > 0:19:20musicals.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23Look how thrilled Hiba and Carl are with that.

0:19:23 > 0:19:28- It's musicals, Hiba! - Yes.- Eh, Carl?

0:19:28 > 0:19:32Right, can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.

0:19:40 > 0:19:43And the question is...

0:19:47 > 0:19:51We're about to show you the names of some songs that feature in musicals.

0:19:51 > 0:19:56We gave 100 people 100 seconds to tell us which musicals they are from.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59- Richard?- We're going to show you six songs on each pass

0:19:59 > 0:20:02and the more obscure the song, the fewer points it will score.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05If you give us an incorrect answer, it will score 100 points.

0:20:07 > 0:20:09Thanks, Richard. The first six are:

0:20:22 > 0:20:24I'll read them one more time.

0:20:32 > 0:20:37Right, Paul. We are looking for the musicals that these songs come from.

0:20:37 > 0:20:41- Do you like your musicals, Paul? - I know a lot about musicals, yeah.

0:20:41 > 0:20:47And I think the one I'd pick there is Luck Be A Lady.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50- Luck Be A Lady, yeah? - And it's from Guys And Dolls.

0:20:50 > 0:20:51It's from Guys And Dolls.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55OK, let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people knew that answer.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00It's a right answer.

0:21:05 > 0:21:06Wow! APPLAUSE

0:21:06 > 0:21:11Good answer, Paul. Luck Be A Lady scores you seven points.

0:21:11 > 0:21:15Yeah, a very good answer, Paul. It premiered in New York in 1950.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17It's been running somewhere ever since.

0:21:17 > 0:21:21- Ewan McGregor was Sky Masterson. - I was Sky Masterson once.

0:21:21 > 0:21:26- Were you?- Yeah. - And Alexander Armstrong was Sky Masterson in the...?

0:21:26 > 0:21:31- Was it the West End?- It was the... No, the Cambridge ADC production.

0:21:31 > 0:21:35The Cambridge ADC production of Guys And Dolls, that is still spoken about today.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38- Everyone, still.- Do you mean your mum is talking about it?

0:21:38 > 0:21:41Yeah, everyone at home is still talking about it.

0:21:41 > 0:21:44- I imagine you were very good. - Get out of here, get out of here.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46Yeah, I was. Extremely good.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49OK, good score for you, Paul. Now, Berni.

0:21:49 > 0:21:53We are looking for the musicals from which these songs come.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55What are you going to say?

0:21:55 > 0:21:57I'm going to say Wouldn't It Be Loverly?

0:21:58 > 0:22:01And I think it came from My Fair Lady.

0:22:01 > 0:22:06Wouldn't It Be Loverly? My Fair Lady. Let's if that is right and how people knew that answer.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08Wouldn't It Be Loverly? My Fair Lady.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12It's correct.

0:22:17 > 0:22:1910! APPLAUSE

0:22:20 > 0:22:24Another very good answer scores you 10. Richard? My Fair Lady.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27Great answer, Berni. Based on the Shaw play Pygmalion.

0:22:27 > 0:22:32"My fair lady" is a play on the Cockney way of saying "Mayfair lady".

0:22:32 > 0:22:33You see, I never knew that.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37I thought it was from, "London Bridge is falling down, my fair lady."

0:22:37 > 0:22:40- Nope.- Well, I know nothing.

0:22:40 > 0:22:44- And now I do know something. - That's good.- Thank you. I'm indebted.

0:22:44 > 0:22:49- Absolutely my pleasure. - Is that "may pleasure"? It's not a play on Cockney?

0:22:49 > 0:22:54- No, no. Literally my pleasure.- OK. Berni, great answer. Hiba.

0:22:54 > 0:22:58We are looking for the musicals from which these songs come.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01- What are you going to say? - I recognise a couple on there

0:23:01 > 0:23:04but I think I'm going to go with Defying Gravity,

0:23:04 > 0:23:06which I believe is from Wicked.

0:23:06 > 0:23:11Defying Gravity from Wicked. There it is. One up from the bottom.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Let's see if that's correct and if it is, how many people knew that it came from Wicked.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26Oh, my word! APPLAUSE

0:23:26 > 0:23:28Brilliant answer, Hiba.

0:23:28 > 0:23:32Defying Gravity scores you 4 points.

0:23:32 > 0:23:37Defying Gravity. It's a musical about the witches of Oz

0:23:37 > 0:23:39and Glee also did a version of Defying Gravity.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43Kids at home, don't start defying gravity. Really. Honestly.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46Let's take a look at the rest of the board, there.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49- The Music Of The Night. What's that from?- Phantom Of The Opera.

0:23:49 > 0:23:52It is. That would have scored you 33 points.

0:23:52 > 0:23:56- Spoonful Of Sugar?- Mary Poppins. - It is.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59That would have scored you 48 points, the biggest score on the board.

0:23:59 > 0:24:04- And The Perfect Year. - I just don't know.- That's the lowest score on the board.

0:24:04 > 0:24:08- No.- It's from Sunset Boulevard. It would have got you 2 points.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Very well done if you got that at home.

0:24:10 > 0:24:15OK, thank you. Let's have a look at the scores, as we are halfway through the round.

0:24:15 > 0:24:19Mm. Very low-scoring round, there.

0:24:19 > 0:24:23Fantastic answer from Hiba, there. Carl, keep up that low scoring

0:24:23 > 0:24:26and you should make it through to the head-to-head.

0:24:26 > 0:24:32Nathan and Berni. That was quite high. Who'd have thought that?

0:24:32 > 0:24:35Nathan, you're going to have to dig deep in the second pass.

0:24:35 > 0:24:40And Andy and Paul, pretty good. Good answer from you, Paul.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42Andy, keep that up. You should make it through.

0:24:42 > 0:24:46Right, second players, please take your places at the podium.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51OK, we're going to put some more songs on the board,

0:24:51 > 0:24:54six of them, to be precise, and here they are.

0:25:03 > 0:25:05I'll read them again.

0:25:10 > 0:25:15Now, remember, we are looking for the musicals from which these songs come

0:25:15 > 0:25:18and you're trying to find the most obscure ones to score as low as possible.

0:25:18 > 0:25:23- Carl?- Musicals is definitely not my strong subject

0:25:23 > 0:25:25but there's a couple up there I think I know.

0:25:25 > 0:25:30I'm going to go for Circle Of Life, which I think is from The Lion King.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33Circle Of Life from The Lion King.

0:25:33 > 0:25:38- What is your strong subject, Carl? - Sport would be my strongest subject.

0:25:38 > 0:25:43Musicals and sport. If only somebody could do a musical about sport, Andrew Lloyd-Webber.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46- He's done one.- Yeah, I know. - It was him and Ben Elton.

0:25:46 > 0:25:50- Who'd have thought that combination wouldn't work?- Beautiful Game.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53- And it lasted...- About 90 minutes. - About 90 minutes, yes!

0:25:53 > 0:25:55Exactly right.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59Very good. So, Carl, you are on 4. Your target is 5.

0:25:59 > 0:26:02If you score 5 or less, you will not be the highest scorers

0:26:02 > 0:26:04and you're through to the next round.

0:26:04 > 0:26:07There is your red line. Quite a long way down.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09Circle Of Life, The Lion King.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11If that's right, how many people said it?

0:26:13 > 0:26:17It is correct.

0:26:18 > 0:26:20APPLAUSE

0:26:20 > 0:26:2441. Giving you a total of 45. Richard.

0:26:24 > 0:26:28Yeah, The Lion King, written by Elton John and Tim Rice.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31- It's been seen by over 8 million people in the London theatre.- Wow.

0:26:31 > 0:26:36Myself included. I recently had the great pleasure of taking a party of 90 school children

0:26:36 > 0:26:38to see The Lion King.

0:26:38 > 0:26:42- Is that all true?- Yeah. - Great pleasure, 90 school children?

0:26:42 > 0:26:45Mm. It was quite fun. I was the only male parent there,

0:26:45 > 0:26:49which meant I had to take 45 8- to 10-year-old children to the toilet

0:26:49 > 0:26:52almost throughout the whole thing.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54So it may be a good musical, for all I know.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57I have to say, the toilets were spotlessly clean.

0:26:57 > 0:27:02- That's my review.- Brilliant. Thank you very much, Richard.

0:27:02 > 0:27:06OK, Nathan. This is the moment you have been looking forward to.

0:27:06 > 0:27:09- Your time to shine.- Right.

0:27:09 > 0:27:13You are currently on 10. If you can score 34 or less with this answer,

0:27:13 > 0:27:16you are through to the next round.

0:27:16 > 0:27:20- How good are you on musicals? - Oh, well, I'm not convinced.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23The obvious one I was going to go for has gone.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27My second choice, I'm confident about but I think it's going to be one of the most popular.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30It's Summer Nights, which I think is from Grease.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33Summer Nights, you think it's from Grease.

0:27:33 > 0:27:38Here's your red line. Below that, you're through to the next round.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41Summer Nights from Grease. Let's see how many people said it.

0:27:47 > 0:27:48AUDIENCE GROANS

0:27:48 > 0:27:52APPLAUSE 58 that scores you, taking your total up to 68.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54- Richard.- Yeah, it's a big score.

0:27:54 > 0:28:00It premiered on Broadway in 1972 but the 1978 film version means a lot of people know it.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02Tell me more, tell me more.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04Well, er, well, er...

0:28:08 > 0:28:09OK, so, Andy.

0:28:09 > 0:28:14You are on 7. You have to score 60 or less with this answer

0:28:14 > 0:28:16to make it through to the head-to-head.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18What are you going to give me?

0:28:18 > 0:28:23Well, the two top songs, I've heard of On My Own, I know that song,

0:28:23 > 0:28:25but I'm not sure where it's from.

0:28:25 > 0:28:28Where Is Love rings a bell, as well.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31So I've got a choice between two, both of which are hard.

0:28:31 > 0:28:35Anyway, it's between Bali Ha'i and Ol' Man River.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37I'm going to go for Ol' Man River

0:28:37 > 0:28:41and I'm pretty sure, says he,

0:28:41 > 0:28:44that it comes from Show Boat.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49OK, some Show-Boating there from Andy.

0:28:49 > 0:28:51There's your red line.

0:28:51 > 0:28:55If you come down below that red line, you are through to the head-to-head.

0:28:57 > 0:29:00Ha! Let's see if Ol' Man River is indeed from Show Boat

0:29:00 > 0:29:03and if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:29:07 > 0:29:08It's good!

0:29:08 > 0:29:11Bad luck, Nathan and Berni. Down it goes.

0:29:11 > 0:29:12Look at that - 7. APPLAUSE

0:29:13 > 0:29:17Another 7 takes your total up to 14. Richard?

0:29:17 > 0:29:19Great answer, Andy. Well played.

0:29:19 > 0:29:22The most famous version is by Paul Robeson.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25Let's take a look through the rest of the list.

0:29:25 > 0:29:29- Where Is Love? Do you know where that's from?- Oliver.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31That would have scored you 9 points, surprisingly low.

0:29:31 > 0:29:37- On My Own. What's that from? - Les Miserables. - It is. Very good answer.

0:29:37 > 0:29:39That would have scored you 3 points. On My Own.

0:29:39 > 0:29:43- And Bali Ha'i. What's that from? - Bali Ha'i School Musical.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46It's not from Bali Ha' School Musical. Good guess.

0:29:46 > 0:29:51It's from South Pacific and would have scored you 11 points.

0:29:51 > 0:29:53OK, thanks very much, Richard.

0:29:53 > 0:29:58So at the end of round two, the losing pair with the highest score is Nathan and Berni.

0:29:59 > 0:30:02- Oh, dear.- I feel like I've let the side down, really.

0:30:02 > 0:30:05Those questions weren't my strong points.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08And you started off so well! Wouldn't It Be Loverly, Berni.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11- I know.- Fabulous low score of 10. - I know.

0:30:11 > 0:30:15Oh, dear. So, what have you learnt from your time on Pointless?

0:30:15 > 0:30:18I've learnt that I should go and see more musicals, I think.

0:30:18 > 0:30:22- Some might say that, some might say, "Good on you."- I gave it a go.

0:30:22 > 0:30:26So sorry to say goodbye to you. Next time you're going to do so much better.

0:30:26 > 0:30:29But you've been fantastic contestants. Thanks for playing.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31APPLAUSE

0:30:32 > 0:30:37For the remaining two pairs, things get even more exciting as we enter the head-to-head.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44Well, we've already said goodbye to two teams.

0:30:44 > 0:30:48Let's find out which pair will be playing for today's jackpot,

0:30:48 > 0:30:51which currently stands at £1,250.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58OK, Andy and Paul, Hiba and Carl,

0:30:58 > 0:31:01you are going head-to-head on the best of three questions.

0:31:01 > 0:31:03You are now allowed to confer.

0:31:03 > 0:31:08You need to give an answer that scores less than the opposing team's answer to win that point.

0:31:08 > 0:31:12The first pair to win two points will play for today's jackpot.

0:31:12 > 0:31:13OK. Let's play Pointless.

0:31:18 > 0:31:19Here's your first question.

0:31:19 > 0:31:27We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many of horse-racing's classic flat races

0:31:27 > 0:31:28as they could.

0:31:28 > 0:31:33- Richard.- We're looking for any of the five races that make up the English classic flat-racing season.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37It's flat-racing, not National Hunt, so not the Grand National.

0:31:37 > 0:31:41The five races that make up the English classic flat-racing season.

0:31:41 > 0:31:47OK. Thanks. Andy and Paul, you've played the best so far, so you get to go first.

0:31:47 > 0:31:50THE TEAMS WHISPER

0:31:52 > 0:31:55OK, Andy and Paul, you've reached agreement.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58- We're going to go for the 1,000 Guineas. - The 1,000 Guineas.

0:31:59 > 0:32:07- Hiba and Carl.- Right. Ascot's a race, isn't it?- That's a meeting.- Oh.

0:32:07 > 0:32:13There's the Cheltenham Cup but I'm not too sure whether that's got jumps in it.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16- Just say it.- So we'll go with the Cheltenham Cup.- We don't know.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18Cheltenham Cup.

0:32:18 > 0:32:22OK, the 1,000 Guineas and the Cheltenham Cup, that's what we have.

0:32:22 > 0:32:23Andy and Paul answered first.

0:32:23 > 0:32:28Let's see how many people said it, if it is indeed a correct answer.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30The 1,000 Guineas.

0:32:33 > 0:32:34It is a correct answer.

0:32:38 > 0:32:40CHEERING 16!

0:32:43 > 0:32:46And Hiba and Carl have gone with the Cheltenham Cup.

0:32:46 > 0:32:50Let's see if that's a correct answer and if it is, how people said it.

0:32:56 > 0:33:00Bad luck. An incorrect answer. It is 1-nil to Andy and Paul.

0:33:00 > 0:33:03- Richard.- The 1,000 Guineas is a good answer

0:33:03 > 0:33:07but there is one better answer, which it might remind you of -

0:33:07 > 0:33:09the 2,000 Guineas would have won you the points.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12Let's see all five of those flat races.

0:33:22 > 0:33:24OK, thanks very much, Richard.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27So, Andy and Paul, you've won the first point.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30Hiba and Carl, you have to win this next point to stay in the game.

0:33:31 > 0:33:33OK, here is your second question.

0:33:33 > 0:33:35We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:33:35 > 0:33:40to name as many Scottish cities as they could.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42Scottish cities. Richard?

0:33:42 > 0:33:46Yes, we simply need you to name any of the six cities in Scotland

0:33:46 > 0:33:49and as with all cities, they need to have been granted royal status.

0:33:49 > 0:33:53There are six cities in Scotland as of April 2010.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55See if you can name all of them at home.

0:33:56 > 0:34:00OK, this time, Hiba and Carl, you get to answer first.

0:34:00 > 0:34:03THEY CONFER

0:34:06 > 0:34:07OK.

0:34:07 > 0:34:10We're going to go with Aberdeen.

0:34:10 > 0:34:11OK. Aberdeen.

0:34:13 > 0:34:14Andy and Paul?

0:34:15 > 0:34:19Andy and Paul, if you win this point, you are through to the final.

0:34:19 > 0:34:23Er, we're not absolutely sure but we're going to go for Dundee.

0:34:23 > 0:34:24You're going to say Dundee.

0:34:24 > 0:34:28OK, we have Aberdeen and we have Dundee.

0:34:28 > 0:34:32Hiba and Carl, you have to win this to stay in the game.

0:34:32 > 0:34:35Aberdeen has to do it for you. Let's see if it's correct

0:34:35 > 0:34:38and if it is, let's see how many people said Aberdeen.

0:34:39 > 0:34:41That's a correct answer.

0:34:43 > 0:34:44APPLAUSE

0:34:47 > 0:34:50- 60. That's a bit higher than you were wanting, I think.- Yeah.

0:34:50 > 0:34:56- Do you think Dundee's lower than that?- I said Dundee but Carl said no.

0:34:56 > 0:34:58- So... - LAUGHTER

0:34:58 > 0:35:02- For your sake in the game, and, Carl, for your sake... - Yeah. In general.

0:35:02 > 0:35:03- In life, yeah. - Let's find out.

0:35:03 > 0:35:08Andy and Paul said Dundee. Is it correct? And if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:35:10 > 0:35:11It's correct.

0:35:13 > 0:35:14Oh, no!

0:35:14 > 0:35:16APPLAUSE

0:35:19 > 0:35:21Well done, Andy and Paul.

0:35:21 > 0:35:25After two questions, in straight sets, you are through, 2-nil,

0:35:25 > 0:35:26to the final.

0:35:26 > 0:35:28Bad luck, Hiba and Carl.

0:35:28 > 0:35:32- Richard?- Yeah, well played, Andy and Paul. Unlucky, Hiba and Carl.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34Two answers would have beaten Dundee.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37Let's take a look at all six of the Scottish cities.

0:35:37 > 0:35:41Stirling was the best answer. It would have got 19 points,

0:35:41 > 0:35:42then Inverness with 21.

0:35:42 > 0:35:46We've got Dundee 43 and Aberdeen 60.

0:35:46 > 0:35:51Residents of Edinburgh and Glasgow, you're joint top with 97.

0:35:51 > 0:35:53Very diplomatic.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, I'm sorry to say,

0:35:56 > 0:35:58is Hiba and Carl.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00- OK.- Oh, dear, oh, dear.

0:36:00 > 0:36:04Did you have those other cities? You were talking about Dundee.

0:36:04 > 0:36:08We had Edinburgh and Glasgow but we thought they'd be right there,

0:36:08 > 0:36:10so it was between Aberdeen and Dundee

0:36:10 > 0:36:13and unfortunately for me, we went for Aberdeen.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15LAUGHTER

0:36:15 > 0:36:18Yeah, good luck with that, Carl, by the way.

0:36:18 > 0:36:21Well done for getting through to the head-to-head.

0:36:21 > 0:36:25You've been fantastic contestants. I'm sorry we have to say goodbye.

0:36:25 > 0:36:27APPLAUSE

0:36:27 > 0:36:30But for Andy and Paul it's now time for our Pointless final

0:36:30 > 0:36:32and a chance to win £1,250.

0:36:36 > 0:36:41Well, congratulations, Andy and Paul. You have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:36:45 > 0:36:47APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:36:48 > 0:36:52Now, however, you have a chance to win the jackpot.

0:36:52 > 0:36:56At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,250.

0:36:59 > 0:37:02To win the money, all you have to do is find a Pointless answer,

0:37:02 > 0:37:04an answer that no-one else could think of.

0:37:04 > 0:37:07We have had one pointless on the show today.

0:37:07 > 0:37:09You have to find one more to go home with that money.

0:37:09 > 0:37:13Firstly, you've got to choose a category from these three options.

0:37:13 > 0:37:19Your choices are:

0:37:19 > 0:37:23American football, childhood pastimes, sitcoms.

0:37:23 > 0:37:25THEY CONFER

0:37:26 > 0:37:30- What about childhood pastimes? - Go on, then. We'll try that.

0:37:30 > 0:37:34Neither of us are American football fans in any respect.

0:37:34 > 0:37:38I think we'll take a really strange one and go for childhood pastimes.

0:37:38 > 0:37:41OK, good reasoning to get thus far.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43OK. Let's find out what the question is.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:37:46 > 0:37:51to name as many Brownie and Cub badges as they could.

0:37:51 > 0:37:56Richard? Yeah. We're looking for any individual specific activity badge,

0:37:56 > 0:37:58which can be earned by a Brownie or a Cub

0:37:58 > 0:38:00between the ages of 7 and 10.

0:38:00 > 0:38:02So any of the individual activity badges

0:38:02 > 0:38:05that can be won by Cubs or Brownies.

0:38:05 > 0:38:08We're just looking for Brownie and Cub activity badges.

0:38:09 > 0:38:12OK, you now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:38:12 > 0:38:15All you need to win that £1,250 is for one of those answers,

0:38:15 > 0:38:17just one of them, to be pointless.

0:38:17 > 0:38:19Your 60 seconds start now.

0:38:19 > 0:38:23- I think we've got to look at fisherman.- Yeah.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25That's going to be very low, I think.

0:38:25 > 0:38:30- Erm... We've also got to look at cook.- Yeah.

0:38:30 > 0:38:33And I think, even though it might have been Scouts,

0:38:33 > 0:38:36- maybe archer - archery. - I'd go with that, yes.

0:38:36 > 0:38:39- Go on, then.- Happy?- Yeah, yeah.

0:38:39 > 0:38:41OK, you've come up with your three.

0:38:42 > 0:38:48- Fishing?- Yeah. I don't know what they call it.- Fisherman. - Fishing badge or angler's badge.

0:38:48 > 0:38:51- Something like that. - Fishing, angler's badge. OK.

0:38:51 > 0:38:53- Cook.- Cook.- Yeah, cook. - Cook's badge.

0:38:53 > 0:38:57- And what was the third? I can't remember.- Archery.

0:38:57 > 0:38:59Archer. Or something to do with archery, yeah.

0:38:59 > 0:39:03OK. Which of those do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:39:03 > 0:39:07I think the fisherman's badge. It certainly existed when I was a cub.

0:39:07 > 0:39:11- OK.- So unless... Because I've got it.

0:39:11 > 0:39:16- Still got it. Andy's still got it. - After all these years.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18OK, so we'll put fisherman last.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20Which one shall we put up first?

0:39:20 > 0:39:26- I think the cook is probably the least...- OK, so cook, archer

0:39:26 > 0:39:28and fisherman.

0:39:30 > 0:39:31There they are.

0:39:31 > 0:39:33So, Andy, you were a cub?

0:39:33 > 0:39:36- Yeah, yeah, and I was a fisherman as well.- Really?

0:39:36 > 0:39:38Yeah. I did archery as well

0:39:38 > 0:39:41but I don't remember whether there was a badge.

0:39:41 > 0:39:44- Surely there was. Surely. There must have an archery badge.- There must.

0:39:44 > 0:39:48- Paul, were you...? - No, I did none of that, no, no.

0:39:48 > 0:39:53OK. We were looking for cubs' badges.

0:39:53 > 0:39:57This was your least confident answer but only one needs to be pointless,

0:39:57 > 0:40:01only one of them, for you to win that £1,250 jackpot.

0:40:01 > 0:40:05OK. Let's see how many people said cook

0:40:05 > 0:40:07and if that is a correct answer.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12It is correct.

0:40:14 > 0:40:17This was your least confident answer.

0:40:17 > 0:40:20Down it goes, down it goes.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23It has to go down to pointless for you to win that £1,250 jackpot.

0:40:23 > 0:40:25APPLAUSE It doesn't go all the way down.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29It stops at 10. We knew it would stop somewhere.

0:40:29 > 0:40:31It was your least confident answer.

0:40:31 > 0:40:36- That surprised me. I thought it would be a lot higher than that. - It's looking good for the other two.

0:40:36 > 0:40:39- If they exist any more. - If they exist any more.

0:40:39 > 0:40:41Surely they must, they must.

0:40:41 > 0:40:44OK, that's not a pointless answer, obviously.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47You only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.

0:40:47 > 0:40:49We're looking for Cub and Brownie badges.

0:40:49 > 0:40:53OK, let's see how your second answer fares.

0:40:53 > 0:40:55You got 10 with cook.

0:40:55 > 0:40:59Your second answer, archer. This has to be pointless to win the jackpot.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01Let's see if it is a correct answer

0:41:01 > 0:41:07and if it is, let's see how many people said archer for £1,250.

0:41:13 > 0:41:15- That surprises me.- Bad luck. Archer.

0:41:15 > 0:41:20Out of the running. An incorrect answer, so not a pointless answer.

0:41:20 > 0:41:23Which means you only have one final chance to win today's jackpot.

0:41:23 > 0:41:26We're looking for Cub and Brownie badges.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29This was the answer you said you had the most faith in.

0:41:29 > 0:41:31This has to be pointless.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33Your third and best answer. Fisherman.

0:41:33 > 0:41:37This for the jackpot of £1,250.

0:41:37 > 0:41:41Let's see if it's correct and if it is, let's see how many people said fisherman.

0:41:46 > 0:41:48THEY GROAN Oh, no!

0:41:48 > 0:41:50- Oh, well.- Oh, well. Don't worry, mate.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56Unfortunately, that is also an incorrect answer,

0:41:56 > 0:41:59so you didn't manage to find a pointless answer,

0:41:59 > 0:42:02so you don't walk away with the jackpot of £1,250,

0:42:02 > 0:42:04which will roll over to the next show.

0:42:04 > 0:42:08But you have been amazing and you do take home our Pointless trophy.

0:42:08 > 0:42:10APPLAUSE

0:42:11 > 0:42:15So, Richard, what has become of the Cubs and Brownies?

0:42:15 > 0:42:21Well, angling and archery are Scout badges, not Cub badges, which is tough luck.

0:42:21 > 0:42:24Let's take a look at some of the more unusual pointless ones we've got.

0:42:24 > 0:42:27Any of these would have won you money. Book reader badge.

0:42:27 > 0:42:29Circus performer badge.

0:42:29 > 0:42:32Er, crime prevention.

0:42:32 > 0:42:33LAUGHTER

0:42:33 > 0:42:35CSI Akela.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38Let's take a look at a few more.

0:42:38 > 0:42:41This is what your kids are doing, by the way, just so you know.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Global conservation. That's quite nice.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45Navigator, watersports.

0:42:45 > 0:42:49Brownie skills. That's a Cub badge.

0:42:50 > 0:42:54Discovering faith is a badge and astronomer is also a badge.

0:42:54 > 0:42:59Tough luck, guys. Three good answers and there were plenty of pointless ones out there.

0:42:59 > 0:43:02Well, unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you, Andy and Paul.

0:43:02 > 0:43:05- Thank you so much for playing. - Thanks.- Thanks.

0:43:05 > 0:43:06APPLAUSE

0:43:09 > 0:43:12Nobody's won our jackpot today, so it rolls over.

0:43:12 > 0:43:16That means on the next show, we'll be playing for £2,250.

0:43:16 > 0:43:18AUDIENCE WHOOPING

0:43:18 > 0:43:20Join us next time to see if someone can win it.

0:43:20 > 0:43:24- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard. - Goodbye.- And from me. Goodbye.
