0:00:19 > 0:00:21APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:23Thank you very much indeed. Hello.

0:00:23 > 0:00:26I'm Alexander Armstrong and this is Pointless.

0:00:26 > 0:00:29The quiz show where you've got to score low to win big.

0:00:29 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.

0:00:31 > 0:00:32APPLAUSE

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Welcome back, Gill and Jess. You were on the last show.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final. This is your second.

0:00:40 > 0:00:45- Remind us how you did. - We got to the head-to-head and then we got knocked out.

0:00:45 > 0:00:49A question about which planets you can see from Earth.

0:00:49 > 0:00:51You were furious about that.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55Poor Gill. I thought Gill was brilliant. She named a star.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58She went out on a limb. That's what you have to do on this show.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00And it cost her dear. Have you forgiven her?

0:01:00 > 0:01:02Just about, just about.

0:01:02 > 0:01:04Best of luck this afternoon.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Robert and Nathan, welcome to you.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08How do you two know each other?

0:01:08 > 0:01:12- We are father and son. - You are father and son!

0:01:12 > 0:01:13Look at you.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16I don't like people saying I look like him.

0:01:16 > 0:01:20I don't like him very much either.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23- Fair enough. Robert, you were a referee.- Yeah.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26And, Nathan, you now are a referee.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28Rugby referee.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30You must have nerves of steel to do that, Nathan.

0:01:30 > 0:01:35Yes. You have to. You take your fair share of abuse.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37What's your secret?

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Block everybody out and you're always right.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Even when you're wrong, you're right.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44When you're wrong today, you're going to be wrong, I'm afraid.

0:01:44 > 0:01:45That's a shame.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47Yes, I'm afraid that is a shame.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49Best of luck. I'm sure you're not going to be wrong.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53And welcome to Jillian and Lesley. How do you two know each other?

0:01:53 > 0:01:55We're sisters, so we've lived together forever.

0:01:55 > 0:02:00- Where are you from?- We're from South Shields near Newcastle.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02That's where I'm from as well.

0:02:02 > 0:02:06- Really?- Northumberland, me.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10- Good accent.- I'm from Rothbury.

0:02:10 > 0:02:11That's how you pronounce it properly.

0:02:11 > 0:02:12"Wrathberry"!

0:02:13 > 0:02:15We don't sound like that.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17- ADOPTS NORTHUMBERLAND ACCENT: - No. Not Newcastle.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19Divvn't sound like that there.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23Northumberlanders talk like that. Do their Rs in the back of the throat, like that.

0:02:23 > 0:02:28I can honestly say I haven't understood any of the last two minutes. Nothing.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30Right, well, I'll be looking out for you.

0:02:30 > 0:02:34- Thank you.- And finally we've got Gavin and Louise.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36How do you two know each other?

0:02:36 > 0:02:41We met 25 years ago in my parents' pub when I was very unpleasant to Gav twice.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43Twice?

0:02:43 > 0:02:46What did you do?

0:02:46 > 0:02:48I can't say on TV, but it was not very nice, what I said to him.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51Anyway, he's forgiven you?

0:02:51 > 0:02:53He's got a bit of a stubborn streak, thankfully.

0:02:53 > 0:02:57We persevered and we've now been married for 23 years and two grown-up children.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00That's fantastic. Well done. Best of luck to you on the show.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02We'll find out more about you through the show,

0:03:02 > 0:03:05but there is just one more person for me to introduce.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08He is the complete and unabridged guide to obscurity.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Yeah. He's my Pointless friend. He's Richard.

0:03:10 > 0:03:11Hiya.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19Only got one returning pair today, so it's a wide open game,

0:03:19 > 0:03:21- although Gill and Jess were rather good last time.- They were.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Until Gill couldn't name a planet.

0:03:23 > 0:03:28We've got quite a tough first question and then a spectacularly easy second question, I would say.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31So if you can hold on till the second question, you'll be fine.

0:03:31 > 0:03:32But good luck with the first one.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35Very good. We've put all our questions to 100 people before the

0:03:35 > 0:03:39show, but this is Pointless, so we're after the obscure answers they didn't get.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42To stay in the game with a chance of winning our jackpot,

0:03:42 > 0:03:45all our players need to do is score as few points as they possibly can.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47What everyone's looking to do is find a Pointless answer,

0:03:47 > 0:03:50that's an answer that none of our 100 people gave.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53Each time that happens we'll add £250 to the jackpot.

0:03:53 > 0:03:56Nobody won the jackpot last time so we add another £1,000 to that,

0:03:56 > 0:04:00so today's jackpot starts off at £4,000.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04OK, let's play Pointless.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13In the first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16Whichever team has the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19If anyone gives me an incorrect answer,

0:04:19 > 0:04:22you will score the maximum of 100 points.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25OK, our first category this afternoon is...

0:04:25 > 0:04:28Politics. Thanks, Richard.

0:04:30 > 0:04:35Can we all decide in our pairs who's going to go first and who's going to go second?

0:04:35 > 0:04:39And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46OK, let's find out what the first question is. We gave 100 people

0:04:46 > 0:04:51100 seconds to name as many countries of the G20 as they could.

0:04:51 > 0:04:55Jess, pleased with that.

0:04:55 > 0:04:56Richard?

0:04:56 > 0:04:58We're looking for any of the countries who make up the

0:04:58 > 0:05:01economic summit group known as the G20 or Group of 20.

0:05:01 > 0:05:03Do you know how many countries there are in the G20?

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Is at 19, Richard?

0:05:05 > 0:05:08It is 19, actually, because the EU is the 20th.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12There are 19 countries in the G20. We're looking for the most obscure.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14I was being glib.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Were you? Well, you were right.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Spot on. Very clever.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22Right, Jess and Gill, you all drew lots before the show today.

0:05:22 > 0:05:28You get go first. Which means Jess, you are the first person to stand up and face this question.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33How good is your geopolitical grasp?

0:05:33 > 0:05:37When you said that, you looked at me and said I looked happy with that...

0:05:37 > 0:05:40You were grinning. That's the universal sign of happiness.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- It was a nervous grin.- Oh, I see.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45Universal sign of nerves as well.

0:05:45 > 0:05:49What's it going to be?

0:05:49 > 0:05:52- England.- England and a shrug.

0:05:52 > 0:05:53Well, it's obviously going to be...

0:05:53 > 0:05:55If it's even right.

0:05:55 > 0:06:00Let's see if that is a correct answer and if it is, let's see how many people said England.

0:06:04 > 0:06:10Bad luck, Jess. I'm afraid England is an incorrect answer, which means you score the maximum of 100 points.

0:06:10 > 0:06:11- Richard, England.- Unlucky.

0:06:11 > 0:06:16We'll go into the reasons why that's an incorrect answer at the end of the round.

0:06:16 > 0:06:19Like what you're doing there. OK, Nathan.

0:06:19 > 0:06:23How good is your G20 knowledge?

0:06:23 > 0:06:25My knowledge of politics is generally pretty good.

0:06:25 > 0:06:32G20, I could name some obscure countries that might be in there.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35That's probably how you're going to have to do it.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37But I don't want to score 100.

0:06:37 > 0:06:43Robert's looking a little bit worried. But he's putting a brave smile on things.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46Therefore, I'm going to attempt to play it relatively safe

0:06:46 > 0:06:49- and go for Canada. - Canada, you're saying.

0:06:49 > 0:06:54Let's see if that's correct. If it is, let's see how many people said Canada for Nathan.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57It's right.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06Very good. That scores you 15 points.

0:07:06 > 0:07:12- Canada. Richard?- Very good. In 2010, the G20 summit was in Toronto.

0:07:12 > 0:07:16You just have to think of somewhere where recently there have been massive riots.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19But that's everywhere, though, unfortunately.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21Yeah. That's true.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23Right, Jillian.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27- Yes.- What is the most obscure country in the G20 you can think of?- Right.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29I know a couple of obvious ones.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34So I'm going to go for France.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38You're hoping to score as few points as possible.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40Let's see if France is correct.

0:07:40 > 0:07:44If it is, let's see how many people said France.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48There it is. It's right.

0:07:48 > 0:07:5552, Jillian scores with that.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58A very big score. They'll chair the G20 in 2011.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02I'll ask you at the end of the round what the more obvious ones you were thinking of.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05Thanks, Richard. Finally, Louise.

0:08:07 > 0:08:11Oh, Louise. You're laughing out of just over-brimming with confidence?

0:08:11 > 0:08:16- Absolutely.- You're thinking which of the obscure ones to pull out.

0:08:16 > 0:08:17Haven't got a clue.

0:08:18 > 0:08:24Right, we'll go for something that's fairly obvious, but hopefully right. USA.

0:08:24 > 0:08:29OK, you're hoping that the USA will be obvious enough to be right,

0:08:29 > 0:08:33but obscure enough not to score you too high. Let's see if it's correct.

0:08:33 > 0:08:37If it is, let's see how many people said the USA.

0:08:38 > 0:08:39It's right.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45Not bad at all.

0:08:45 > 0:08:4644. Less than France.

0:08:48 > 0:08:49How come less than France?

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Extraordinary, isn't it?

0:08:52 > 0:08:56Anyway, Pointless. Right, we're halfway through the round, so let's take

0:08:56 > 0:08:58a look at the scores as they stand.

0:08:58 > 0:09:02Well, Gill and Jess,

0:09:02 > 0:09:03bad luck.

0:09:03 > 0:09:04I had no clue.

0:09:04 > 0:09:09Gill, you've got work to do on the next pass if you're going to stay on beyond this round.

0:09:09 > 0:09:13Robert and Nathan, fabulous answer there from Nathan. 15.

0:09:13 > 0:09:14Lovely low score.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17Keep that up and you should be through to the next round.

0:09:17 > 0:09:18Jillian and Lesley, not bad.

0:09:18 > 0:09:19Gavin and Louise, not bad.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21All around the sort of midway point there.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23The one who's got to work hard is Gill in this next pass.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25OK, we're going to come back down the line.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:09:31 > 0:09:34So, Gavin. You're on 44.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Not a bad answer from Louise.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39You want to score 55 or less with this answer

0:09:39 > 0:09:42to make sure you are in the next round.

0:09:42 > 0:09:47We are looking for the countries of the G20.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50I'm going to have to play fairly safe and I'll go for Japan.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52Japan, you are saying.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54OK. Here is your red line.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Below that red line, you are definitely through to the next round.

0:09:57 > 0:10:01Let's see if Japan's right. If it is, let's see

0:10:01 > 0:10:03how many people said it. Japan.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06It's right.

0:10:08 > 0:10:09Well done, Gavin.

0:10:09 > 0:10:1120 that scores you.

0:10:11 > 0:10:15Good answer. Giving you a total of 64. Japan.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18Good answer. The third largest global economy,

0:10:18 > 0:10:21so very, very much a member of the G20.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24Right. Lesley. You are on 52.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27You want to score 47 or less with this answer to make sure you are

0:10:27 > 0:10:31in the next round, which Richard says is going to be a fun round.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34I don't have a clue at all.

0:10:34 > 0:10:38But I'm just going to try and go for...Spain.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41OK. You're hoping that Spain is going to score you 47 or less.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44Here's your red line. Below that, you're through.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48- Are you confident?- Not at all.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52Let's see how many people said Spain and if it is a correct answer.

0:10:52 > 0:10:53Spain.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59Oh no. Bad luck.

0:10:59 > 0:11:03I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer, which gives you 100 points.

0:11:03 > 0:11:04Taking your total up to 152.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06You are the new high scorers. Richard.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09That's really bad luck. They can't be far off that list,

0:11:09 > 0:11:12but they're not one of the largest global economies in the world.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14People don't drink sangria any more, do they?

0:11:14 > 0:11:17- No.- We haven't heard much from Julio Iglesias lately.

0:11:17 > 0:11:21- It's just looking so bleak for Spain.- Still, at least they won the World Cup.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23That will cheer them up.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26And they won Wimbledon.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29- And Wimbledon.- Ole! It's all looking great for Spain.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33They've just gone through this in the space of the last 30 seconds.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Well done, Spain. Bad luck, Lesley.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39Robert.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42So, remember, we are looking for countries of the G20.

0:11:42 > 0:11:46Robert, whatever happens, come what may, Nathan's canny answering in the

0:11:46 > 0:11:50first pass ensures your place in the next round.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54Whatever you say, you won't overtake Leslie and Jillian's high score.

0:11:54 > 0:11:58Bearing that in mind, what are you going to say?

0:11:58 > 0:12:03In view of that, I think I'll try and take a fly and see if we can get a Pointless.

0:12:03 > 0:12:04Let's try Mexico.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06Mexico.

0:12:08 > 0:12:12Nathan looks like he's just swallowed something he didn't particularly like.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16So, remember, we are looking for countries of the G20.

0:12:16 > 0:12:21Let's see if the Mexican economy can get them in there.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23There's no red line for you.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Doesn't matter what you say, you're through come what may.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28Let's see if Mexico is correct and, if it is, let's see how

0:12:28 > 0:12:29many people said it. Mexico.

0:12:31 > 0:12:32It's right!

0:12:39 > 0:12:41Spectacular answer, Robert.

0:12:41 > 0:12:45It scores you two, taking your total up to 17. Very impressive low score.

0:12:45 > 0:12:46Great answer, Robert.

0:12:46 > 0:12:50That's the way to play the game. It's the 11th largest global economy, Mexico.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52Very good.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55Now, Gill, you are on 100. You have to score 51 or less.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58I'm going to go for an obvious one.

0:12:58 > 0:13:02OK. You have to score 51 or less. Just to reiterate that.

0:13:02 > 0:13:09I know, but it's either an obvious one and score high or an obscure one and get 100.

0:13:09 > 0:13:13- The obvious one and say Germany. - You're going to say Germany.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16There's your red line. Jess not sure if Germany's going to do it.

0:13:16 > 0:13:20You have to go below that red line to stay on for the next round.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22Let's see how many people said it. Germany.

0:13:27 > 0:13:31You've done it. You had to score 51 or less.

0:13:31 > 0:13:37You scored 51. Wow.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40Fantastic answer.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42Taking your total up to 151.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44That's as close as it gets.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Very well done.

0:13:46 > 0:13:51Jillian's answer, France, was the top answer.

0:13:51 > 0:13:52The top answer of all those G20.

0:13:52 > 0:13:56So, it beat the USA, it beat Germany, it also beat, Jess, United

0:13:56 > 0:14:00Kingdom, which is what we would have had to accept, not England.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02That's why we didn't accept that answer. France the top of all.

0:14:02 > 0:14:07Jillian, when you said France, you said you were thinking of some more obvious ones. What are they?

0:14:07 > 0:14:09I thought the USA and the United Kingdom.

0:14:09 > 0:14:13Both of those would have seen you through to the second round.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15I would have gone for France above those. That's unlucky.

0:14:15 > 0:14:19There are three pointless answers here. Then I'll go through other low-scoring ones.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22Indonesia is a member of the G20. That was Pointless.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25Saudi Arabia, Pointless. South Korea also Pointless.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27Very well done if you got any of those at home.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30Some of the other lower scoring ones, we've had Mexico already.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33There's Argentina, there's Turkey,

0:14:33 > 0:14:36India, Brazil. Australia, South Africa.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Then you get on to the bigger ones.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40We've already heard the three top answers.

0:14:40 > 0:14:46They were the United Kingdom, 46, and then Germany which just saw you through to the second round with 51,

0:14:46 > 0:14:49and then France which just saw you out of the second round on 52.

0:14:49 > 0:14:53OK, thanks very much, Richard. So, at the end of round one, the losing

0:14:53 > 0:14:56pair with the highest score, I'm sorry to say, is Lesley and Jillian.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Bad luck. Those French.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Yeah. Those French.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04They let you down. They will.

0:15:04 > 0:15:05And the Spanish.

0:15:05 > 0:15:09They'll let you down. Not the Germans, though.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12Dependable. Reliable.

0:15:12 > 0:15:17Lesley and Jillian, what have you learnt from your time on Pointless?

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Never to go to Spain.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23Exactly. Remember that, kids. You're coming back.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26It's not the end of the world. We'll see you again.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28Hopefully there'll be better subjects next time.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31Such a shame to say goodbye so early on, but we will see you next time.

0:15:31 > 0:15:36Everyone gets two shots at the Pointless final. Hopefully you'll be in for longer next time.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38Thanks so much for playing, Lesley and Jillian.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42For the remaining three pairs, though, it's now time for round two.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50There's only room for two pairs in the head-to-head,

0:15:50 > 0:15:54so one team's going to be leaving us at the end of this round.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57OK, your category for round two is...

0:15:57 > 0:15:59Music.

0:15:59 > 0:16:03Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first and who's going to go second?

0:16:03 > 0:16:07And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12And the question is...

0:16:12 > 0:16:14Novelty songs and their artists.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16Brilliant.

0:16:16 > 0:16:20In this round, we're about to show you the names of some novelty songs.

0:16:20 > 0:16:26We gave 100 people 100 seconds to tell us who originally sang them. Richard?

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Yeah, we're going to give you the name of six songs on each pass.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32The more obscure the song, the fewer points you're going to score.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35If you give us an incorrect answer, you will score 100 points.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37And, at home, see if you can get all six.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40OK, the first six are...

0:16:57 > 0:17:01Right. We are looking for the people who originally sang these songs.

0:17:01 > 0:17:06- Jess. What sort of music do you like, Jess?- Not that kind.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08What are your hobbies, generally?

0:17:08 > 0:17:11I'm a hockey player. Lots of sport.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14When you and Gill got your team together, you were

0:17:14 > 0:17:21going to say, "I'll take sport and any novelty hit singles and, Gill, you can do the rest."

0:17:21 > 0:17:24Yeah, that's right.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28- Well, it's novelty hit singles. - This show's not making me look very intelligent.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32I'm not sure this really is going to make you look intelligent if you know the answers, either.

0:17:32 > 0:17:36Do you know your music? Is music something you're interested in?

0:17:36 > 0:17:38I thought I did until I saw those titles.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41I'm going to go with Barbie Girl.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47And this is a guess, I think.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50I'm going to say H2O.

0:17:50 > 0:17:55You're not too happy with that at all, are you?

0:17:55 > 0:18:02Tormented inside over H2O and their fantastic song, or not, Barbie Girl.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05We've got Barbie Girl by H2O. Let's see if that's right.

0:18:05 > 0:18:09If it is, let's see how many people knew that H2O sang Barbie Girl.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16Bad luck.

0:18:16 > 0:18:17That's an incorrect answer,

0:18:17 > 0:18:20which means you score the maximum of 100 points.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23- Incorrect. - It is. I won't tell you the answer

0:18:23 > 0:18:26in case one of the other pairs wants to have a go at that one.

0:18:26 > 0:18:32OK. Right. Robert. This is playing right to your strengths, Robert.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35It's the category you were praying for.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38I was hoping some different songs were going to come up there.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41More of my era. But never mind. We'll try what we've got.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43Where are you from, Robert?

0:18:43 > 0:18:46- From Llanharan.- Llanharan?- Well done!

0:18:46 > 0:18:47How was that?

0:18:47 > 0:18:52- Very impressive.- My wife's Welsh. My mother-in-law speaks Welsh.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54That's her first language.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Getting back to the matters at hand, I guess...

0:18:56 > 0:19:01I'm meant to say that, aren't I? Leading you off, leading you a merry dance.

0:19:01 > 0:19:07I thought that was going to be right then, Jess, but I realised then what I think it is.

0:19:07 > 0:19:11I think Barbie Girl is by Aqua.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13She came up with the...

0:19:15 > 0:19:16I think it's Aqua is the artist.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19Very good. Let's see if that's right.

0:19:19 > 0:19:23If it is, let's see how many people knew that Aqua sang Barbie Girl.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27Well done, Robert.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33Not a bad score. Very good.

0:19:33 > 0:19:37Really impressed that you knew that, Robert. 37 it scores you.

0:19:37 > 0:19:40You were sort of tempted to admit you didn't know that, weren't you?

0:19:40 > 0:19:44You almost couldn't bring yourself to say it. Sold over a million copies in 1997.

0:19:44 > 0:19:47I think it's the first time we've ever had an incorrect answer

0:19:47 > 0:19:49which is the chemical symbol for a correct answer.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51I think.

0:19:51 > 0:19:54- I'll get some of the backroom boys to check that out.- Yeah, do.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57Hang on, make sure Backroom Boys didn't sing any of these.

0:19:59 > 0:20:00OK, very good.

0:20:00 > 0:20:05We are looking for the people who originally sang these novelty hits.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07Now, Louise,

0:20:07 > 0:20:11I know that you're longing to throw yourself in and get among those.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13My son's going to kill me for not remembering

0:20:13 > 0:20:17who did Combine Harvester when we were only singing it the other day.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19Oh dear. Where were you singing it the other day?

0:20:19 > 0:20:23- On our way down to Devon and Cornwall.- See, that's nice. You sing in the car.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26As we crossed the border, we had a little sing-song.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Very good. I like that.

0:20:28 > 0:20:29But I'm going to go for...

0:20:29 > 0:20:31I don't think it's right, but

0:20:31 > 0:20:33'Ullo, John, Got a New Motor?

0:20:33 > 0:20:34I think, was Alexei Sayle.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Alexei Sayle,

0:20:36 > 0:20:37'Ullo, John, Got a New Motor?

0:20:37 > 0:20:38Let's see if that's right,

0:20:38 > 0:20:39and if it is, let's see how

0:20:39 > 0:20:43many people knew that Alexei Sayle sang 'Ullo, John, Got a New Motor?

0:20:44 > 0:20:45Well, it is right.

0:20:51 > 0:20:5511, what a brilliant score, Louise. Alexei Sayle gets you 11 points.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Yes, that's a great answer.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02Alexei Sayle said he's very proud to have the only Top 20 hit in

0:21:02 > 0:21:04history to mention the word Peckham.

0:21:04 > 0:21:08Let's take a look at the rest of the board. What do you think, Alexander?

0:21:08 > 0:21:10Combine Harvester, who is that by?

0:21:10 > 0:21:12- The Wurzels. - The Wurzels, that's exactly right.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Became a huge hit after Noel Edmonds championed it.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18One of the many things we have to thank Noel for.

0:21:18 > 0:21:25- The Chicken Song.- Well, it was on Spitting Image, but what was it...

0:21:25 > 0:21:27It was credited to Spitting Image.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29It would have scored you 16 points.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32Written by Grant and Naylor, who went on to write Red Dwarf.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35- The Elements?- Tom Lehrer.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38It is Tom Lehrer. It's him essentially reciting the elements.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40And the Birdie Song. Everyone knows the Birdie Song.

0:21:40 > 0:21:44It would have scored you one point because people can't remember who recorded it.

0:21:44 > 0:21:48- Who had a hit with the Birdie Song? - They might have been called The Tweets or something.

0:21:48 > 0:21:49They were called The Tweets.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52Very, very well done. And well done if you got that at home.

0:21:52 > 0:21:56OK, we're halfway through the round so let's take a look at the scores.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Wow! Gill and Jess,

0:21:58 > 0:22:03once again, Gill, Jess has left you with a mountain to climb.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05Nathan, a walk in the park for you.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07And Gavin, walk in the park for you.

0:22:07 > 0:22:10Two lovely low scores from Robert and Louise respectively there.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12So we're going to come back down the line.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:22:15 > 0:22:21OK, we're going to put six more novelty hits on the board and here they are.

0:22:43 > 0:22:47Now remember, we're looking for the people who originally sang those songs.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50You're trying to find the one that the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53So, Gavin, you're spoilt for choice there, aren't you?

0:22:53 > 0:22:56Your score is 11. You're the lowest scorers here.

0:22:56 > 0:23:00You have to score 88 or less to be through to the head-to-head.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02Easy. You remember some of these, don't you, Gavin?

0:23:02 > 0:23:04I love music, but...

0:23:04 > 0:23:05Novelty music, you see.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07I'm more a country music fan.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10Something about you told me that you were a country music fan.

0:23:10 > 0:23:13I can't think what might it have been?

0:23:13 > 0:23:18I think I'm going to go for Ernie The Fastest Milkman in the West and Benny Hill.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22Benny Hill, Ernie.

0:23:22 > 0:23:23There's your red line.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26Below that red line, you are through to the head-to-head.

0:23:26 > 0:23:27Fastest Milkman in the West.

0:23:27 > 0:23:31Let's see if that's correct and, if it is, let's see how many people said Ernie.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35Well done.

0:23:37 > 0:23:4042, that scores you, taking your total

0:23:40 > 0:23:44up to 53. Ernie.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47Yeah, a pretty big score. It was number one in 1971.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49And do you know it was chosen by David Cameron

0:23:49 > 0:23:51as one of his Desert Island Discs?

0:23:51 > 0:23:53All right.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55Nathan, you are on 37.

0:23:55 > 0:24:01Robert scored you a fantastic 37 by plucking Aqua out of thin air.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04Now there's a trick.

0:24:04 > 0:24:07How good is your pop trivia knowledge?

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Pop music, yes.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12Pop novelty songs, not so much.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15- Not so much.- Having said that,

0:24:15 > 0:24:17when I was little...

0:24:17 > 0:24:19I'm still little now, as you can see by my height...

0:24:19 > 0:24:22- Come now, you're less tall. - When I was young,

0:24:24 > 0:24:30I seem to remember my parents playing in the car Star Trekkin', because I loved it as a kid.

0:24:30 > 0:24:35And I believe, plucking it from the back of my brain, I think the artist is The Firm.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37The Firm.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40I'm never going to argue with a referee.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43There's your red line, Nathan.

0:24:43 > 0:24:48If The Firm sees you below that red line, you're through to the head-to-head.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50Let's see if The Firm, Star Trekkin' is correct,

0:24:50 > 0:24:53and if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56It's right.

0:24:57 > 0:24:58You are through.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06Well, that was going all way down. That scores you three, Nathan, and

0:25:06 > 0:25:08a pat on the back from your father.

0:25:08 > 0:25:10And takes your total up to 40. Richard.

0:25:10 > 0:25:15Yeah, very good answer. Robert, when you were sitting in that car thinking, "Please make this stop",

0:25:15 > 0:25:20little were you to know that about 20 years later, it might actually make you some money.

0:25:20 > 0:25:24Star Trekkin' was turned down by 30 record companies and then went on to

0:25:24 > 0:25:27sell over 1 million copies worldwide in 1987.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30If you were one of the companies that turned it down,

0:25:30 > 0:25:33you'd still think, "I'm so glad we didn't pick that up."

0:25:33 > 0:25:36"Thank God we don't have to listen to that endlessly in our offices."

0:25:36 > 0:25:38OK, so now the moment of truth.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41Well, it's not the moment of truth, I'm afraid, Gill.

0:25:41 > 0:25:42The writing is on the wall.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45You are the high scorers even before your answer,

0:25:45 > 0:25:48but you could leave a nice little legacy by plucking a

0:25:48 > 0:25:52pointless answer maybe off that board, if there is such a thing.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54Well, I'm guessing Do The Bartman

0:25:54 > 0:25:59is an obvious answer, being one of the Simpsons.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Can We Fix It is an obvious one.

0:26:01 > 0:26:06I'm going to go for Snooker Loopy, which people might not have heard.

0:26:06 > 0:26:10- And I think that was Chas and Dave, but I'm not sure.- Chas and Dave?

0:26:10 > 0:26:13Well, there's no red line for you, obviously.

0:26:13 > 0:26:18Let's see if Snooker Loopy, Chas and Dave might be a pointless answer.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21You could leave 250 quid for the remaining pairs.

0:26:21 > 0:26:25OK, Chas and Dave, let's see if that's right and how many people said it.

0:26:25 > 0:26:26It's right.

0:26:32 > 0:26:3510 people knew that.

0:26:35 > 0:26:39That gives you a total, Gill and Jess, of 110. Richard.

0:26:39 > 0:26:42It's not a pointless answer but it's a very good answer.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44It's a very good way to finish.

0:26:44 > 0:26:45Chas and Dave and The Matchroom Mob.

0:26:45 > 0:26:50Unbelievably, it's still the only Top 10 single that Willie Thorne has ever had.

0:26:50 > 0:26:52Let's take a look at the other ones on the board.

0:26:52 > 0:26:56There's a couple of big ones there. Can We Fix It, of course, is Bob the Builder.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00That would have scored you 68 points. Do The Bartman?

0:27:00 > 0:27:04- Bart Simpson.- It's just credited to the Simpsons, actually. It would have scored you 27.

0:27:04 > 0:27:08And Doctorin' The Tardis is a pointless answer, so well done if you got that at home.

0:27:08 > 0:27:12- Do you remember who that's by?- No. - Anybody?- The Timelords.

0:27:12 > 0:27:16The Timelords, exactly. The band who were later to be KLF but they were The Timelords at the time.

0:27:16 > 0:27:18- No, they went on to be KLF?- Yeah.

0:27:18 > 0:27:23Wow! OK, thanks Richard. At the end of round two, the losing pair with the highest score is Gill and Jess.

0:27:23 > 0:27:28Where's the justice in this? You were through to the head-to-head last time, this time round two.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31- Wrong subjects.- Wrong subjects.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35Anyway, sorry to be saying goodbye to you, but you've been fantastic contestants.

0:27:35 > 0:27:36Thanks for playing.

0:27:39 > 0:27:42But, for the remaining two pairs, things are about to get even more

0:27:42 > 0:27:45exciting as we enter the head-to-head.

0:27:48 > 0:27:53So well done, Robert and Nathan, Gavin and Louise, you've made it through to the head-to-head.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56Obviously only one pair can make it through to today's final

0:27:56 > 0:28:01and play for the jackpot which currently stands, in case you'd forgotten, at £4,000.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07OK, you're now going head-to-head on the best of three questions.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09You are now allowed to confer.

0:28:09 > 0:28:14All you have to do is pick an answer that scores less than the opposing pair and you will win that point.

0:28:14 > 0:28:17The first pair to win two questions will be playing for today's jackpot.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19OK, let's play Pointless.

0:28:23 > 0:28:27And here is your first question. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to

0:28:27 > 0:28:31name as many places mentioned in Churchill's "We shall fight"

0:28:31 > 0:28:34speech as they could. Richard.

0:28:34 > 0:28:38This is in reference to Churchill's famous "We shall fight"

0:28:38 > 0:28:41speech from 4th June 1940.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43And there were eight places where he said we shall fight.

0:28:43 > 0:28:47You need to give us the most obscure. At home, see if you can get all eight.

0:28:47 > 0:28:49- So a tough question but a good one. - Wow!

0:28:49 > 0:28:53Eight places. Robert and Nathan, because you played best throughout

0:28:53 > 0:28:55the show so far, you get to go first.

0:28:56 > 0:29:00OK?

0:29:00 > 0:29:02It's the only one I really know,

0:29:02 > 0:29:04at least I hope I know it anyway.

0:29:04 > 0:29:06So I'm going to plump for this.

0:29:06 > 0:29:08- We.- Oh, sorry, "we".

0:29:08 > 0:29:11Another black mark.

0:29:11 > 0:29:13I don't want to take the credit for this.

0:29:13 > 0:29:16One more of those, Robert, and you'll be off.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18Three minutes on the bicycle.

0:29:18 > 0:29:22So I'm going to go for beaches.

0:29:22 > 0:29:24OK, beaches it is.

0:29:24 > 0:29:31Gavin and Louise, we are looking for places in which Winston Churchill said we would fight them.

0:29:32 > 0:29:35We're too young to remember... Just.

0:29:35 > 0:29:36We'll go for sea.

0:29:36 > 0:29:38You're going to go for sea? OK.

0:29:38 > 0:29:45Robert and Nathan have gone for beaches, Gavin and Louise for sea.

0:29:45 > 0:29:49Let's see if beaches is correct, and if it is, let's see how many people said it. Beaches.

0:29:51 > 0:29:53It's right.

0:29:54 > 0:29:5674. As we suspected, quite a high-scoring one there.

0:29:58 > 0:30:03OK, we're looking for places in which Winston Churchill said we would fight them.

0:30:03 > 0:30:07Gavin and Louise have gone for the sea.

0:30:07 > 0:30:11Let's see if that's correct, and if it is, let's see how many people said sea.

0:30:13 > 0:30:14It's right.

0:30:14 > 0:30:17There we are, they beat the beaches.

0:30:20 > 0:30:2113, well done.

0:30:23 > 0:30:26A good guess, as it turns out.

0:30:26 > 0:30:29So, after the first question, it is 1-0 to Gavin and Louise. Richard.

0:30:29 > 0:30:33A very good answer. "On the seas and oceans", he said we would fight them.

0:30:33 > 0:30:36There were five other answers that would have beaten it, though.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39He had been Prime Minister less than a month when he made the speech.

0:30:39 > 0:30:42Let's take a look at places.

0:30:57 > 0:30:59Very well done if you got all of those at home.

0:30:59 > 0:31:02OK, so, after the first question, it is 1-0 to Gavin and Louise.

0:31:02 > 0:31:06Robert and Nathan, you have to win this next point to stay in the game.

0:31:06 > 0:31:09Gavin and Louise, if you win this next point you are through to the

0:31:09 > 0:31:12final and a chance to play for that £4,000 jackpot.

0:31:12 > 0:31:18OK, here is the second question. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many

0:31:18 > 0:31:22most widely spoken languages as they could. Richard.

0:31:22 > 0:31:26We're looking for any of the top 10 most widely spoken languages in the world.

0:31:26 > 0:31:31And that's spoken as a first language as of 2010.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34OK, thanks very much, Richard. Gavin and Louise, you get to go first this time.

0:31:38 > 0:31:39We have an answer from Gavin and Louise.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41We're going to go for Mandarin.

0:31:41 > 0:31:43Mandarin.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45Robert and Nathan.

0:31:49 > 0:31:50We'll go for Arabic.

0:31:50 > 0:31:53Arabic.

0:31:53 > 0:31:57OK, so we have Mandarin and we have Arabic. Gavin and Louise said Mandarin.

0:31:57 > 0:32:02Let's see if that's correct, and if it is, let's see how many people said it. Mandarin.

0:32:02 > 0:32:03Well, it is correct.

0:32:05 > 0:32:0975. It's a high score, isn't it?

0:32:09 > 0:32:13Robert and Nathan went for Arabic. Let's see if that's correct, and if

0:32:13 > 0:32:15it is, let's see how many people said that.

0:32:17 > 0:32:19It's right. And it beats Mandarin.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26Look at that. 14. Only 14 people said that.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28It's very exciting.

0:32:28 > 0:32:31After two questions, it's 1-1. Richard.

0:32:31 > 0:32:33Yes, a great answer, Arabic.

0:32:33 > 0:32:37It's the fourth most widely spoken language in the world. Mandarin is the most widely spoken.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39It's quite an interesting list.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41Let's look at it all 10 and see how they scored.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10England beating Germany there.

0:33:12 > 0:33:18- It makes a rare change, doesn't it? - OK, you are absolutely even as we go into the third question.

0:33:18 > 0:33:23Whoever wins this question is playing for that £4,000 jackpot in the final.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25OK, here is your third question.

0:33:25 > 0:33:31We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many sections of a symphony orchestra as they could.

0:33:31 > 0:33:33Sections of a symphony orchestra. Richard.

0:33:33 > 0:33:38We are looking for the names of the four instrument sections of a modern symphony orchestra.

0:33:38 > 0:33:40Which is the most obscure of those?

0:33:40 > 0:33:41OK, thanks very much, Richard.

0:33:41 > 0:33:45Robert and Nathan, you get to go first.

0:33:48 > 0:33:52Divided opinion here, so somebody's in the cart after.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54On your head be it.

0:33:56 > 0:33:58I might be getting a yellow card.

0:33:58 > 0:33:59I'm just thinking you might well be.

0:33:59 > 0:34:01I'm getting a red one.

0:34:01 > 0:34:03Of those, I'm going to go for percussion.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05Gavin and Louise.

0:34:05 > 0:34:08What do you reckon?

0:34:08 > 0:34:11Let's have a gamble and go strings because percussion's going to be low.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13- Yeah?- Yeah.

0:34:13 > 0:34:14- Go for it? Gamble it?- Yeah.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17We don't really know. We're going to go for strings.

0:34:17 > 0:34:21You're going to take the gamble that percussion is not a recognised section?

0:34:21 > 0:34:24Well, we liked percussion. We wanted percussion but unfortunately...

0:34:24 > 0:34:26Who knows if it's right?

0:34:26 > 0:34:28Robert and Nathan said percussion.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31Let's see how many people said percussion.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33Well, it's right.

0:34:37 > 0:34:39Surprisingly high score for percussion there.

0:34:41 > 0:34:46So this to decide who goes through to the final to play for that £4,000 jackpot.

0:34:46 > 0:34:48OK, strings, say Gavin and Louise.

0:34:48 > 0:34:54Let's see if that right, and if it is, let's see how many people said strings.

0:34:54 > 0:34:56It is correct.

0:34:58 > 0:34:5975.

0:34:59 > 0:35:01After the third question,

0:35:01 > 0:35:06Robert and Nathan are going through to the final 2-1. Richard.

0:35:06 > 0:35:08All the answers were high and all the answers were close but

0:35:08 > 0:35:11percussion was the best answer you could have given.

0:35:11 > 0:35:13Let's take a look at all four and see how they scored.

0:35:13 > 0:35:17Percussion right at the bottom with 63. Brass with 65.

0:35:17 > 0:35:21Woodwind 71 and strings was the top answer of all with 75.

0:35:21 > 0:35:25The losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, I'm afraid, it's Gavin and Louise.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27Never mind.

0:35:27 > 0:35:30The good news is we get to see you again which is great news for us.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33You've been lovely contestants. Thank you very much for playing.

0:35:33 > 0:35:39For Robert and Nathan, it's now time for our Pointless final and the chance to win £4,000.

0:35:43 > 0:35:45Congratulations, Robert and Nathan.

0:35:45 > 0:35:49You've seen off all the competition and have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:54 > 0:35:58Now, of course, you have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:35:58 > 0:36:02At the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £4,000.

0:36:04 > 0:36:07The rules are simple. To win the money, all you have

0:36:07 > 0:36:11to do is find a pointless answer that no one else could think of.

0:36:11 > 0:36:13We've had no pointless answers on the show today,

0:36:13 > 0:36:16you just have to find one now to go home with that money.

0:36:16 > 0:36:20Firstly you have to choose a category and you can go for these three options.

0:36:27 > 0:36:29American football, if it's players, we'll

0:36:29 > 0:36:32have difficulty, if it's teams of American football we have a chance.

0:36:32 > 0:36:34It can't be screens.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36- Transport.- Transport could be the London Underground.

0:36:36 > 0:36:40We've seen a lot of it today. Go with American football.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42You'll go with American football.

0:36:42 > 0:36:47- Yes.- Sorry it's not Welsh rugby, it really would have helped.

0:36:47 > 0:36:50International rugby referees?

0:36:50 > 0:36:52Are you fans of American football?

0:36:52 > 0:36:55We watch a bit of it, don't we?

0:36:55 > 0:36:56I watch quite a bit of it.

0:36:56 > 0:36:59- It's all your fault. - You're hoping it's enough?

0:36:59 > 0:37:02I hope you watch enough.

0:37:02 > 0:37:06Only one way to find out.

0:37:06 > 0:37:11Here's the question. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:37:11 > 0:37:17as many Super Bowl winners as they could.

0:37:17 > 0:37:21- Richard.- Guys, we're looking for any team which has won the NFL Super Bowl

0:37:21 > 0:37:25since the first competition in 1967 all the way to 2010.

0:37:25 > 0:37:27We'll need the full name of the team.

0:37:27 > 0:37:32You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers and all you need to win that

0:37:32 > 0:37:36£4000 jackpot is for just one of those answers to be pointless. Your 60 seconds start now.

0:37:36 > 0:37:41Tampa Bay Buccaneers. That's going to be quite low.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43Washington Redskins.

0:37:43 > 0:37:47- They've definitely won it, yes. - The Canadian team won it once.

0:37:47 > 0:37:51No. I don't think so.

0:37:53 > 0:37:55Green Bay Packers? People may not know that.

0:37:57 > 0:38:02- Oakland Raiders. - Are you sure? That's an obscure one.

0:38:02 > 0:38:04They're called the LA Raiders.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07There's your minute up.

0:38:07 > 0:38:11Let's have three answers.

0:38:11 > 0:38:13- We'll go Tampa Bay Buccaneers. - Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

0:38:13 > 0:38:17I believe they were called at the time the Oakland Raiders.

0:38:17 > 0:38:19- The Oakland Raiders? - Yes. Green Bay Packers.

0:38:19 > 0:38:20Green Bay Packers?

0:38:20 > 0:38:22Which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:22 > 0:38:26- Tampa Bay Buccaneers. - Tampa Bay Buccaneers we'll put last.

0:38:26 > 0:38:28What should be put as your least confident?

0:38:28 > 0:38:32I think Oakland Raiders. I know they became the LA Raiders but

0:38:32 > 0:38:35I'm not sure if they were called Oakland at the time.

0:38:35 > 0:38:40Oakland Raiders first, Green Bay Packers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

0:38:40 > 0:38:43Let's put them up in that order.

0:38:43 > 0:38:48Oakland Raiders, Green Bay Packers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50There they are.

0:38:50 > 0:38:52We were looking for Super Bowl winners.

0:38:52 > 0:38:54This was your least confident answer.

0:38:54 > 0:38:58You only need one of them to be pointless to win that £4,000 jackpot.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01How would you spend that if you won it?

0:39:01 > 0:39:03Probably repairing the house. Part of the

0:39:03 > 0:39:06- rendering fell down this week. - Oh no!

0:39:06 > 0:39:09- You've had storms? - It just needs doing.

0:39:09 > 0:39:13It's long overdue and I don't think the window cleaner was

0:39:13 > 0:39:17happy when it all started moving when he was climbing the ladders.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20I think some of that might go on that.

0:39:20 > 0:39:22On fixing a hole.

0:39:22 > 0:39:25The cat has been keeping a wide berth walking down there.

0:39:25 > 0:39:29Let's see how many people said your first answer.

0:39:29 > 0:39:33The Oakland Raiders, let's see if it's a correct answer in the first instance.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35Let's see how many people said it.

0:39:35 > 0:39:37It sounds like a good answer to me.

0:39:37 > 0:39:38The Oakland Raiders.

0:39:40 > 0:39:42It's correct.

0:39:42 > 0:39:46This is your first shot at that jackpot of £4,000.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49It has to go all the way down to the bottom obviously.

0:39:49 > 0:39:53Down it goes. Oh!

0:39:59 > 0:40:00Two people said Oakland Raiders.

0:40:00 > 0:40:02Unfortunately that's not a pointless answer.

0:40:02 > 0:40:06You said this was the answer you have the least faith in. Only two people knew it.

0:40:06 > 0:40:10It's looking very good for your other answers if only two people knew that.

0:40:10 > 0:40:13You only have two chances left to win the jackpot.

0:40:13 > 0:40:17Are you feeling confident after that? That's a nice low-scoring answer.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19We didn't think it was going to be right.

0:40:19 > 0:40:21That's why you put that one first.

0:40:21 > 0:40:24When you saw that was correct, you were hoping that was going to go all the way down?

0:40:24 > 0:40:29You have two pretty good answers after that. The Green Bay Packers is your second answer.

0:40:29 > 0:40:32We're looking for Super Bowl winners, Green Bay Packers.

0:40:32 > 0:40:34Let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:40:36 > 0:40:38It's correct.

0:40:40 > 0:40:42Down it goes.

0:40:42 > 0:40:45It has to go all the way down to the bottom for you to win that £4,000.

0:40:45 > 0:40:48Will the Green Bay Packers do it for you?

0:40:52 > 0:40:59Five people said the Green Bay Packers, so that also is not a pointless answer.

0:40:59 > 0:41:04Everything hinges on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

0:41:04 > 0:41:06You liked the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

0:41:06 > 0:41:08The minute you said them, you thought that's a good one.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10It's an unusual nickname.

0:41:10 > 0:41:12An unusual nickname.

0:41:12 > 0:41:18Right, you only have one last chance. This is it, everything is on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

0:41:18 > 0:41:22We were looking for American football Super Bowl winners.

0:41:22 > 0:41:27This was the answer you said straight off was your most confident chance of a pointless answer.

0:41:27 > 0:41:31It has to be pointless for you to win that £4,000 jackpot.

0:41:31 > 0:41:37Let's stop talking and see how many people said Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

0:41:40 > 0:41:43It's right. We knew it was right.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47This has to be pointless for you to win that £4,000 jackpot.

0:41:47 > 0:41:48This is your last chance.

0:41:48 > 0:41:52Down it goes. Come on. Oh no!

0:41:59 > 0:42:04- One person.- Who was that person? - It was me, it was me!

0:42:06 > 0:42:09I'm afraid one person knew the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

0:42:09 > 0:42:15Unfortunately you haven't found that all-important pointless answer so you don't win today's jackpot.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17That will roll over to the next show, that £4000 jackpot.

0:42:17 > 0:42:21You've been fantastic and you do get to take home our Pointless trophy.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30Well, let's hope you're not going to kick yourself too

0:42:30 > 0:42:33much but Richard, what are the answers they were looking for?

0:42:33 > 0:42:36It's tough luck, you played so well throughout the whole show.

0:42:36 > 0:42:41If you'd said LA Raiders instead of Oakland Raiders, it would have got you one point as well.

0:42:41 > 0:42:45It would have been even more painful if you did.

0:42:45 > 0:42:47There were three pointless answers here.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49We'll put them up for you.

0:42:49 > 0:42:51Well done if you got any of these at home.

0:42:51 > 0:42:57The Baltimore Colts, the Kansas City Chiefs and the St Louis Rams who won in 2000.

0:42:57 > 0:42:59All of those would have won you £4,000.

0:42:59 > 0:43:02Oh dear, oh dear. Looking at those, do you know those ones?

0:43:02 > 0:43:04Baltimore Colts came to me after it was too late.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06It's a shame but there we are.

0:43:06 > 0:43:11Unfortunately we say goodbye to you, Robert and Nathan.

0:43:11 > 0:43:13It's been fabulous having you on the show.

0:43:13 > 0:43:14Thank you so much for playing.

0:43:16 > 0:43:20Nobody has won our jackpot today which means it rolls over.

0:43:20 > 0:43:23On the next show we'll be playing for £5,000.

0:43:24 > 0:43:29- Join us next time to see if someone can win it. Meanwhile it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:29 > 0:43:31And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
