0:00:21 > 0:00:24APPLAUSE
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Thank you. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and this is Pointless,
0:00:27 > 0:00:32the quiz show where fewer points mean the better your chance of winning. Let's meet the players.
0:00:37 > 0:00:42We welcome back Gavin and Louise. You were on the show last time. Everyone gets two chances.
0:00:42 > 0:00:47- Remind us how you did last time. - We lost in the head to head, 2-1.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50It was that sections of the orchestra question.
0:00:50 > 0:00:56It saw you off. Louise, may I commend you on your country shirt? Look at that!
0:00:56 > 0:01:03That's a fabulous shirt. I'm guessing, hidden behind your name badge, there's more livestock.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05There's more, yes.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Thank you for making such a fabulous effort.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11Very best of luck to you today. Welcome to Joanna and Phil.
0:01:11 > 0:01:16- How do you two know each other? - We met in a delivery room a few years ago
0:01:16 > 0:01:18and we've kept in touch ever since.
0:01:18 > 0:01:24Ah, that's the best answer I've had to that question for a father and daughter team. Very good.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27I'm assuming it's not father and midwife team.
0:01:27 > 0:01:32That would... Sorry, Joanna, what am I talking about? It's father and daughter.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34What do you do, Phil?
0:01:34 > 0:01:39- I'm a company director. - Very good. Joanna?- Criminal lawyer.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Criminal lawyer? Wow. What a team!
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Have you got any criminal law questions coming up?
0:01:44 > 0:01:49I don't think we've ever had a criminal lawyer on the show. Or anyone that clever...
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Not as a contestant. Very best of luck to you.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55And we welcome Simon and Kay-Leigh. How do you know each other?
0:01:55 > 0:01:59We're actually engaged. We're getting married next year.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02Met about nine years ago in the club in Manchester called Rock World.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06- Rock World? - It's now closed down, unfortunately.
0:02:06 > 0:02:11- Simon, nine years it's taken you. - Yeah. Nine years.
0:02:11 > 0:02:16Dear, oh, dear. I hope it doesn't take that long to get through to the final of Pointless.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- Hopefully not.- Very best of luck to the pair of you.
0:02:19 > 0:02:24Finally, we welcome back Jillian and Lesley. You were on the show last time. How did you do?
0:02:24 > 0:02:27We didn't do very well. We only got to the first round.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- You did.- But there was only one point in it.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34- Exactly. It was the G20. - Yeah, it was.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Dear, oh, dear. We'll find out more about all of you throughout the show.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41Finally, let me introduce the man for whom no fact is too obscure.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44- He's my Pointless friend. He's Richard.- Hiya.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47APPLAUSE
0:02:47 > 0:02:52How do you like that? This time, you're neither a lexicon, a compendium, a shelf,
0:02:52 > 0:02:56- an encyclopaedia, you're just a man. - Just a man. Finally.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Years of surgery have paid off.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02I'm recognised for what I am, what I was born as.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05Yeah. Well, yeah.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09We've got a very good returning pair who were in the head to head last time.
0:03:09 > 0:03:14I thought they might go all the way, before I knew we had a criminal lawyer and a company director.
0:03:14 > 0:03:19Quite often, we have questions where you get a groan from the contestants cos they're quite hard.
0:03:19 > 0:03:25Usually once a show. I guarantee you, question one, there'll be a groan.
0:03:25 > 0:03:31- Guaranteed.- Hm.- So stick around for question one, at least.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34- OK. - HE LAUGHS
0:03:34 > 0:03:37We put all our questions to 100 people. But this is Pointless
0:03:37 > 0:03:42so we are after the obscure answers that those 100 people didn't get.
0:03:42 > 0:03:47To stay in the game with a chance to win our jackpot, our players need to score as few points as they can.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer, that none of our 100 people gave.
0:03:51 > 0:03:56Each time that happens, if it happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Nobody won the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that.
0:03:59 > 0:04:04So today's jackpot starts off at an unbelievable £5,000.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07- AUDIENCE: Whooo! - There you are. Let's play Pointless!
0:04:14 > 0:04:19In the first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23The team with the highest score at the end of the round is eliminated. Be careful.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25If anyone gives an incorrect answer,
0:04:25 > 0:04:27they will score the maximum 100 points.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30OK, our first category this afternoon is...
0:04:33 > 0:04:37Can you decide who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:04:38 > 0:04:41And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:04:47 > 0:04:54as many 2010 Formula 1 drivers as they could.
0:04:55 > 0:05:00- Where's the groan?- They're deliberately not groaning cos I said they would.- Groaning inwardly.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02OK, Richard.
0:05:02 > 0:05:08We're looking for any driver who's competing in the 2010 Formula 1 World Championships.
0:05:08 > 0:05:15We won't be counting test drivers. For those of you thinking of going for a test driver, afraid not.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19So any driver who's competing in the 2010 World Formula 1 Championships.
0:05:19 > 0:05:25OK, thanks, Richard. Gavin and Louise, you drew lots before the show and today you get to go first.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28I don't even know if I've got the name right,
0:05:28 > 0:05:32but I'm going to go for Jenson Button.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- Jenson Button.- It's probably wrong.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38You're hoping to score as few points as possible.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Let's see how many people said Jenson Button.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50- It's not 100.- It's not 100, Louise. Jenson Button scores you 86.
0:05:50 > 0:05:56- Richard.- The 2009 world champion, Jenson Button.- OK, Joanna.
0:05:56 > 0:06:01I do like Formula 1. I've been a bit unable to watch it due to little people this year.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Leprechauns? What?
0:06:03 > 0:06:07They're kind of more naughty than leprechauns.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10- Ah, elves. - Yeah, those are the people.
0:06:10 > 0:06:17Remember, we are looking for the 2010 season Formula 1 drivers.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20I think I'm going to say Sebastian Vettel.
0:06:20 > 0:06:25OK, Sebastian Vettel. Let's see if it's correct and, if it is, how many people said that.
0:06:25 > 0:06:30You're hoping to score as few points as possible. Sebastian Vettel.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33It's right.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Could be a good answer.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40- 19! - APPLAUSE
0:06:40 > 0:06:44Impressive score, Joanna. Richard.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48Yeah, good answer. Sebastian Vettel drives for Red Bull, German driver.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51OK. Very good. Now, Kay-Leigh.
0:06:51 > 0:06:58Erm, it's on at times of the day when I prefer to be asleep, so I know very little about it.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02- OK.- I want to go for Lewis Hamilton.
0:07:02 > 0:07:07- Lewis Hamilton.- Who goes out with one of the Pussycat Dolls. Or did.
0:07:07 > 0:07:12I'm not sure that's going to score you any fewer points, but I like it.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14- OK. Lewis Hamilton.- Please.
0:07:14 > 0:07:21You're hoping to score as few points as possible. Jenson Button scored 86. Let's try Lewis Hamilton.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31It's right. And it scores less than Jenson Button. That scores you 82.
0:07:31 > 0:07:37- Lewis won't like that, but it's good news for you. Richard.- Lewis Hamilton is Jenson Button's team mate
0:07:37 > 0:07:42at McLaren and also a world champion. Early 20s, multi-millionaire,
0:07:42 > 0:07:46going out with a Pussycat Doll. But is he happy?
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Oh, yeah. Yeah, he is. He's delirious.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55And now then, Lesley.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- Yeah?- I know that you've been itching to get your turn
0:07:59 > 0:08:03because you are going to dazzle us with maybe a pointless answer.
0:08:03 > 0:08:09- I don't think so.- Oh, no, I do. - The only two I know are Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Here's fun. You're going to have to make one up.
0:08:12 > 0:08:17I have watched it before and I know their names, but...
0:08:17 > 0:08:21- Yeah.- I'm sure there's one... Rice?
0:08:21 > 0:08:25- I'll just have to go for Reiser. - Reiser?
0:08:25 > 0:08:29Yeah. I don't know what it is, but I know it's not that.
0:08:29 > 0:08:35Maybe, if I delay enough, maybe someone called Reiser can start in Formula 1,
0:08:35 > 0:08:38while I filibuster here.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42Erm...you're hoping to score as few points as possible
0:08:42 > 0:08:46with a nice, obscure Formula 1 driver called Reiser.
0:08:46 > 0:08:51Let's hope it's correct and, if it is, let's see if anyone said it. Reiser.
0:08:54 > 0:09:02Oh, dear. Unfortunately, Reiser is a wrong answer, which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:09:02 > 0:09:06You're not that far ahead of the people who said Button and Hamilton.
0:09:06 > 0:09:11So don't be too down-hearted. Richard.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14Yeah, the good news is, none of our 100 people said Reiser.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17The bad news is, that's cos...
0:09:17 > 0:09:19- She was Gorbachev's wife. - THEY LAUGH
0:09:19 > 0:09:24She was Gorbachev's wife and she made it no further than Formula 2.
0:09:24 > 0:09:30Not bad. OK, we're halfway through the round, so let's take a look at the scores as they stand.
0:09:30 > 0:09:35Pretty high-scoring in the first pass with one notable exception.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39Jillian and Lesley on 100. Simon and Kay-Leigh, 82. Gavin and Louise, 86.
0:09:39 > 0:09:44All of you are going to have to make an effort in the next pass to answer as obscurely as you can.
0:09:44 > 0:09:50Fabulous answer, Joanna. You look very good for going through to the next round. Back down the line.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Will the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Jillian, you are on 100. You are the high scorers.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03How good is your Formula 1 knowledge?
0:10:03 > 0:10:06I've never watched Formula 1 in my life.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09I only knew Lewis Hamilton.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- Oh, dear. - That's it. But I'll have a guess.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15You're going to have a guess, or make one up.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19- THEY LAUGH - I'm going to go for an old one.
0:10:19 > 0:10:24He might have started driving again. Erm, Michael Schumacher.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28- Michael Schumacher?- Yes. - He might well have started driving again, but did he?
0:10:28 > 0:10:34Let's see if Michael Schumacher is correct and if it is, how many people said Michael Schumacher.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37It's right.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43- Very, very, very good, Jillian. - APPLAUSE
0:10:44 > 0:10:49A brilliant answer. That scores you 58 and brings your total up to 158. Richard.
0:10:49 > 0:10:54Yeah, brilliant answer and brilliant logic. He gave up and then started again in 2010.
0:10:54 > 0:11:00- Seven-time world champion. - Very good. That might be just enough to see you into the next round.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04- Might be.- Hopefully. - Let's see what happens.
0:11:04 > 0:11:08- Simon, I'm guessing you know a lot about Formula 1. - I've watched quite a few of them
0:11:08 > 0:11:11- but I'm torn between two.- Mm-hm.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14I think I'm going to go for another German, Timo Glock.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Timo Glock. OK. You are on 82.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21You want to score 75 or less to avoid becoming the highest scorers.
0:11:21 > 0:11:27There is your red line. Below that, you're through to the next round. Let's see if Timo Glock
0:11:27 > 0:11:30is a correct answer and, if it is, how many people said it. Timo Glock.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35It's good enough!
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Might be better than that.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Oh! Brilliant, Simon!
0:11:43 > 0:11:48Fantastic low-scoring answer. That scores you four, our lowest score yet,
0:11:48 > 0:11:50and takes your total up to 86. Richard.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54Yeah, brilliant answer. Timo Glock is German, drives for Virgin Racing.
0:11:54 > 0:11:59- He's the guy Lewis Hamilton famously overtook on the last lap to win his world championship.- Thanks.
0:11:59 > 0:12:04Now, Phil, we're looking for Formula 1 drivers.
0:12:04 > 0:12:062010 season Formula 1 drivers.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10You are currently on 19. It doesn't matter what you score,
0:12:10 > 0:12:13you are through to the next round come what may. Even if you
0:12:13 > 0:12:16say something that you've just made up.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18- THEY LAUGH - What are you going to give me?
0:12:18 > 0:12:23I can think of a couple left. I was going to go for Sebastian Vettel.
0:12:23 > 0:12:29- Oh, right.- But I'm going to go for a safe bet, Felipe Massa.
0:12:29 > 0:12:34Massa. Felipe Massa. Let's see if it's correct and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38It's right.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Low score.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Very good indeed, Phil.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48That scores you 17 and takes your total up to 36. Richard.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Yeah, again, very good answer.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Brazilian driver, drives for Ferrari.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Very good. Now, the moment of truth.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Gavin, you and Louise are on 86.
0:12:59 > 0:13:03The highest scorers at the moment are Jill and Lesley on 158.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07You have to score 71 or less with your answer.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09If it had been NASCAR, I would've been fine.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12All right, NASCAR, then.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14- Round three, I think, NASCAR. - Round three, yeah.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18It's banger racing, round two. THEY LAUGH
0:13:18 > 0:13:21I've sat here with two and luckily one's left
0:13:21 > 0:13:24so I'm going to have to go for Mark Webber.
0:13:24 > 0:13:28Mark Webber. Intake of breath from the audience.
0:13:28 > 0:13:33But a nod, from Simon, of reassurance. Don't worry, said Simon.
0:13:33 > 0:13:37There is your red line. Oh, dear.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Tense moment for Jillian and Lesley. I think they were hoping
0:13:40 > 0:13:44that you were going to have to make up a name.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Maybe he has. Maybe it's all a bluff.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48- Mark Webber. - THEY LAUGH
0:13:48 > 0:13:51Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58It's right. It's good enough.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04A very good answer, Gavin.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08That scores you 25, takes your total up to 111. Richard.
0:14:08 > 0:14:14Yeah, Mark Webber is Sebastian Vettel's Australian co-driver for Red Bull.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Good answer and good way to get through to round two.
0:14:17 > 0:14:23There were three pointless answers. Well done if you got any of these at home. Let's take a look.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27There's Kobayashi, the Sauber driver.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Lucas Di Grassi, who drives for Virgin Racing.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34And Vitantonio Liuzzi from Force India. All of those were pointless
0:14:34 > 0:14:36so very well done if you got any of those.
0:14:36 > 0:14:41In terms of Reiser, the closest thing was Pedro de la Rosa.
0:14:41 > 0:14:47- It was that one, yeah. - Well, Pedro de la Rosa would've scored you four points.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52- So...- OK, thanks, Richard. At the end of round one, the losing pair
0:14:52 > 0:14:56- with the highest score is Jillian and Lesley. Again, round one. - ALL: Aww!
0:14:56 > 0:15:00- We haven't seen you beyond round one.- I know.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04So who'll be watching at home, shouting at the screen?
0:15:04 > 0:15:07- Erm...- Nobody, hopefully.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10THEY LAUGH
0:15:10 > 0:15:12You haven't done well in terms of Pointless,
0:15:12 > 0:15:16but you have covered yourselves in glory in terms of being very brave
0:15:16 > 0:15:21and very bold and you've played the game the right way. Sadly, you just got the wrong answers.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24That's just how it happens. This was your second chance,
0:15:24 > 0:15:30- so I'm afraid we do say goodbye now, but you've been wonderful. Thanks. - APPLAUSE
0:15:30 > 0:15:33For the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43Now, there's only room for two pairs in the head to head,
0:15:43 > 0:15:48so one of the teams is going to be leaving us at the end of this round. The category for round two is...
0:15:52 > 0:15:57Cinema. Decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07OK, the question is...
0:16:12 > 0:16:15In this round, we're going to show you some famous movie quotes.
0:16:15 > 0:16:21We gave 100 people 100 seconds to tell us which movies they came from. Richard.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24We're going to give you six quotes in each pass
0:16:24 > 0:16:28and the more obscure the quote, the fewer points you'll score.
0:16:28 > 0:16:33If you give us an incorrect answer, you'll score 100 points. See how many of them you can get at home.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35OK, your first six are...
0:16:42 > 0:16:45Are you liking the voice I'm putting on?
0:16:45 > 0:16:49- Are you putting on a voice?- Yes, yes. I'm performing them.- Do go on.
0:17:10 > 0:17:15OK, Louise. What are you laughing about?
0:17:15 > 0:17:18No, don't like those. Can I have some more?
0:17:18 > 0:17:23Yeah, sure, let's have some more. Can we have six more, please? Louise doesn't like those.
0:17:23 > 0:17:30- Are you not a film fan? - I am, but...I can't think of most of those quotes.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Erm...
0:17:33 > 0:17:39I'm going to go for a very obvious answer, but an answer that I'm confident of.
0:17:39 > 0:17:44- OK. OK.- So "Stupid is as stupid does" is Forrest Gump.
0:17:44 > 0:17:49"Stupid is as stupid does" is Forrest Gump. Let's see if it's right and how many people knew that.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01- 19! - SHE LAUGHS
0:18:01 > 0:18:05That's not a terrible score, Louise. 19.
0:18:05 > 0:18:09Yeah, "Stupid is as stupid does" is one of the sayings the Forrest Gump says his mother,
0:18:09 > 0:18:12- Sally Field, tells him.- Joanna.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15We are looking for the movies that these quotes come from.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18You have five left on the board to choose from.
0:18:18 > 0:18:23- Do you watch a lot of films? - I do, but...- Do you remember dialogue from films?- No.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26No, I obviously don't. I remember nice-looking men
0:18:26 > 0:18:30- and good action scenes. - SHE LAUGHS
0:18:30 > 0:18:33I'm drawing a blank, so I'm going to have to be obvious.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37I'm going to have to go with "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn"
0:18:37 > 0:18:42- and hope it's Gone With The Wind. - You're hoping it's from Gone With The Wind.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46Let's see if it's right and, if it is, how many people knew it.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49It's right.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- 55. - APPLAUSE
0:18:54 > 0:18:5755 that scores you. It's always a sensible thing in this round.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Much better that 100. Richard.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03Spoken by Rhett Butler at the end of the film. He did though, didn't he?
0:19:03 > 0:19:07He did give a damn, yeah. Come on, Rhett.
0:19:07 > 0:19:11Really? You didn't give a damn? I think you protest too much, my friend.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15I think you give plenty of a damn, that's what I think.
0:19:15 > 0:19:20- Don't you think? That's my reading of the film.- That's what I think, too. We concur.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24Simon, we are looking for the movies... Back to the game.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28We are looking for the movies from which these quotes have been lifted.
0:19:28 > 0:19:33You have four left to choose from and you're the last to have this selection so talk us through it.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- I have a feeling you know all of these.- Erm, I know the quotes
0:19:37 > 0:19:40but I can't think of the films.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43The top three, I can picture the films,
0:19:43 > 0:19:45and I'm pretty sure they're all big films,
0:19:45 > 0:19:48but I just can't think what they are.
0:19:48 > 0:19:53So I'm going to take a guess at "We rob banks"
0:19:53 > 0:19:57and I'm going to guess at Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
0:19:57 > 0:20:02You're saying Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels for "We rob banks".
0:20:02 > 0:20:07Let's see if that's correct, maybe it is, and let's see how many people knew that "We rob banks"
0:20:07 > 0:20:10comes from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Ohh!
0:20:14 > 0:20:19Unfortunately, that is a wrong answer, which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22- But it was a brave effort. Richard. - Yeah, tough luck.
0:20:22 > 0:20:28I'll give you the full quote and give you another go. "This here is Miss Bonnie Parker. I'm Clyde Barrow.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31"We rob banks."
0:20:31 > 0:20:33It's from Bonnie And Clyde, of course.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36It's a terrible catchphrase, "We rob banks."
0:20:36 > 0:20:40- Terrible.- So obvious. Let's take a look at the other three.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43"Here's looking at you, kid." What do you think?
0:20:43 > 0:20:48- Casablanca.- Exactly right. That would've scored you 31 points. "I could've been a contender."
0:20:48 > 0:20:51- On The Waterfront. - Yes, Marlon Brando. Seven points.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54- "A boy's best friend is his mother." - I have no idea.
0:20:54 > 0:20:59- Psycho?- Exactly right. Spoken by Anthony Perkins as Norman Bates.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02- Ohh.- What a psycho that guy was, wasn't he?- Yeah, wasn't he?
0:21:02 > 0:21:08First time I saw that film, it didn't scare me at all. Second time...scary.
0:21:08 > 0:21:13OK, we're halfway through the round, so let's take a look at the scores.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Well, it's a wide field, as it always is.
0:21:16 > 0:21:22Simon and Kay-Leigh. Oh, dear, Kay-Leigh, you've got a mountain to climb in the second pass.
0:21:22 > 0:21:27Joanna and Phil, not bad there, 55. Could be better.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30But Gavin and Louise, fantastic! Great answer from Louise there.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Gavin, keep that up, you'll be through to the head to head.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37Back down the line. Second players, take your places at the podium.
0:21:40 > 0:21:45OK, we're going to put six more movie quotes on the board. And here they are.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14We are looking for the movies these quotes have been lifted from
0:22:14 > 0:22:18and you are trying to find the most obscure ones that the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22OK, Kay-Leigh, you are way out in front on 100.
0:22:22 > 0:22:28You have to score as low as you possibly can with this answer. How is that board looking to you?
0:22:28 > 0:22:31- The first one looked better for me. - Really?
0:22:31 > 0:22:35Yeah. There are some I don't know and I'm not even going to guess. There are some I do know.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39I think they're obvious if you know them.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43There's a few on there I know, so I'm just trying to pick the one I want to go for.
0:22:43 > 0:22:48- I'll go for "This is Sparta."- OK.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51And I hope this is right, I think it's from 300.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54Let's see if that is right, let's hope it's right.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58You're saying "This is Sparta" 300. If that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04It's right.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11Good answer. Look at that! 11! Well done, Kay-Leigh.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15Very good. That's exactly what you needed to do.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17That scored you 11, taking your total up to 111.
0:23:17 > 0:23:22- Richard.- Yeah, very good answer. "This is Sparta" spoken, or yelled by Gerard Butler.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26Very well done, Kay-Leigh. Now, Phil, you are on 55.
0:23:26 > 0:23:32You have to score 55 to avoid becoming the high scorers.
0:23:32 > 0:23:38How is that selection of quotes looking to you, Phil? Do you know your films?
0:23:38 > 0:23:42- Reasonably well, yeah. - Reasonably well to know nearly all the ones there?
0:23:42 > 0:23:45I know three of them.
0:23:45 > 0:23:49I think. Certainly two. The third's a little bit more obscure
0:23:49 > 0:23:53and I'm just wondering whether to gamble and go for that one.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57You see, it's all hingeing on what kind of a film buff Gavin is.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02- OK. I'm going to go safe.- OK.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05I'm going to go, "On my signal, unleash hell."
0:24:05 > 0:24:09- Which is from?- Gladiator.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Gladiator, you say? OK, there's your red line.
0:24:11 > 0:24:16If you come below that red line, you are through to the head to head.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19Is it from Gladiator? If it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23It's right.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Oh, gets you through!
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Wow!
0:24:32 > 0:24:34That is fantastic news for you, Phil.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37Terrible news for Kay-Leigh.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40That scores you six, taking your total up to 61.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44Surprisingly low score, I think. Spoken by Russell Crowe as Maximus Decimus Meridius.
0:24:44 > 0:24:51Perhaps if he'd said it in more of an Irish accent, it would've stuck in people's minds.
0:24:51 > 0:24:56Mm-hm. Very good. Phil, very good answer, very good score. 61 is your total.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01Gavin. Now then, you are on 19.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05You have to score 91 or less. That's not a massive challenge.
0:25:05 > 0:25:0991 or less and you are through to the head to head for the second time in two shows.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12I bet you know quite a lot about films.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16I thought I knew a lot, but I'm struggling with those up there
0:25:16 > 0:25:21so I'm going to play very safe and hopefully it's less than 90.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25I'm going to go for "There's no place like home" and Wizard Of Oz.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28"No place like home" Wizard Of Oz, you're saying.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31There's your red line.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35If that gets you below the red line, you're through to the head to head
0:25:35 > 0:25:38and we'll say goodbye to Kay-Leigh and Simon.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42- What do you think? - BOTH: I think we're going home.
0:25:42 > 0:25:47We'll see. "There's no place like home" Wizard Of Oz. Is it right and how many people said it?
0:25:49 > 0:25:51It's right. You're through.
0:25:55 > 0:26:0136 that scores you, taking your total up to 55.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04- Richard.- Yeah, very well done. Through to the next round.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07Let's take a look through the rest of the list.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11"No, Mr Bond, I expect you to die." What's the from?
0:26:11 > 0:26:14Erm, it's Donald Pleasence. It must be Goldfinger.
0:26:14 > 0:26:19- It's not Donald Pleasence, but it is Goldfinger.- Oh. - It would've scored you 30 points.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23- "You talkin' to me?" - Yeah! Taxi Driver.
0:26:23 > 0:26:29It is from Taxi Driver. Martin Scorsese says there's a sequel coming to Taxi Driver.
0:26:29 > 0:26:35We've been waiting for it for ages. I rang him. He said it's ten minutes away, it's round the corner.
0:26:35 > 0:26:40Would've scored you 18 points. "This dress is for sale, I'm not."
0:26:40 > 0:26:44- Indecent Proposal.- It is, and that was a pointless answer,
0:26:44 > 0:26:49so very well done if you got that at home. Spoken by Demi Moore. You know what? She was for sale.
0:26:49 > 0:26:54- As it turns out, she was.- She was. - Anyway, thanks, Richard.
0:26:54 > 0:26:59At the end of round two, the losing pair with the highest score is Simon and Kay-Leigh.
0:26:59 > 0:27:04Dear, oh, dear. I was sure you were going right through to the head to head and possibly further.
0:27:04 > 0:27:08- I'm just happy it wasn't my fault. - THEY LAUGH
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Oh, very good.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12Simon, you heard what she said.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15- Does she bear grudges? - Yeah, a little bit.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19OK. She won't have to bear them for long. We will see you again next time.
0:27:19 > 0:27:24Everyone gets two shots. We'll see you, I hope, for even longer. You've been fantastic.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27- Thanks for playing. - APPLAUSE
0:27:27 > 0:27:31For the remaining pairs, things are about to get more exciting in the head to head.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40Well done, Joanna and Phil, Gavin and Louise. You've made it to the head to head.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44Only one pair can make it through to the final and play for the jackpot
0:27:44 > 0:27:48which currently stands at £5,000.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50APPLAUSE
0:27:50 > 0:27:54You are now going head to head on the best of three questions.
0:27:54 > 0:27:58You are now allowed to confer, that's the good news.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02You have to come up with an answer that scores less than the other pair to win the point.
0:28:02 > 0:28:08The first pair to win two points will be playing for our jackpot in the final. Let's play Pointless.
0:28:11 > 0:28:15OK, here's your first question. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:28:15 > 0:28:23to name as many chemical elements with single letter symbols are they could. Richard.
0:28:23 > 0:28:29We're looking for any element from the periodic table whose chemical symbol comprises just one letter.
0:28:29 > 0:28:34There are 14 of them and we're looking for the element, not just the letter.
0:28:34 > 0:28:39You can't just say a letter of the alphabet and expect to get away with it. So there's 14 elements
0:28:39 > 0:28:42whose chemical symbol comprises one letter.
0:28:42 > 0:28:47OK. Joanna and Phil, because you've played best throughout the show so far, you get to go first.
0:28:52 > 0:28:57We'd like to go with K for potassium.
0:28:57 > 0:29:02Ooh! K for potassium. Gavin and Louise.
0:29:05 > 0:29:09- Is it? Don't know.- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:29:09 > 0:29:14- OK, we don't know, but we're going to go with H for hydrogen. - H for hydrogen.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17OK, so we have K for potassium from Joanna and Phil.
0:29:17 > 0:29:21Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26- Yes!- Well done.
0:29:30 > 0:29:31Oh! 14!
0:29:31 > 0:29:35APPLAUSE
0:29:35 > 0:29:37Good answer.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40Gavin and Louise have gone for H for hydrogen.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43Let's see if that's right and how many people said that.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48It's right.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54Not bad! Look at that! 21!
0:29:54 > 0:29:57APPLAUSE
0:29:57 > 0:30:03Closer than you might have imagined, but after the first question, it is 1-0 to Joanna and Phil. Richard.
0:30:03 > 0:30:08Yeah, potassium's a very good answer. There were a whole bunch of answers that could've beaten it.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13Vanadium, which is V, that would've scored you nothing,
0:30:13 > 0:30:17as would Yttrium, which is Y. Both of those are pointless.
0:30:17 > 0:30:22Tungsten, which is, of course, W. That would've scored you one point.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25Fluorine, F, three points.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27Phosphorus, P, three points.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29Uranium, U, five points.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32Iodine, I, that would've scored you seven points.
0:30:32 > 0:30:37Then sulphur, S, on nine and boron, B, on nine.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41Potassium, K, scored 14 points. Nitrogen, N, 14.
0:30:41 > 0:30:44Then carbon, C, would've scored you 17.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47Oxygen, O and hydrogen, H, 21 points.
0:30:47 > 0:30:51OK, here is your second question. It is 1-0 to Joanna and Phil.
0:30:51 > 0:30:55Gavin and Louise, you have to get this one right to stay in the game.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58You have to win this point. Here is your second question.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:31:00 > 0:31:06as many Wham! top 40 singles as they could.
0:31:06 > 0:31:10- Richard.- Yeah, periodic table, Wham! It's much the same stuff, isn't it?
0:31:10 > 0:31:14We're simply looking for any Wham! single to reach the UK top 40
0:31:14 > 0:31:17as of April 2010.
0:31:18 > 0:31:21OK, this time, Gavin and Louise, you get to go first.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35- Wham Rap.- Wham Rap.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37Joanna and Phil.
0:31:38 > 0:31:43There's quite a few. I don't know what people will say. We're going to go for Last Christmas.
0:31:43 > 0:31:48Last Christmas. We have Wham Rap and Last Christmas.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50Gavin and Louise with Wham Rap first.
0:31:50 > 0:31:54Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Very good.
0:32:02 > 0:32:06- 11! - APPLAUSE
0:32:08 > 0:32:11Joanna and Phil, Last Christmas.
0:32:11 > 0:32:15Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said that.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25- 31. - APPLAUSE
0:32:25 > 0:32:30So that point goes to Gavin and Louise. After the second question, it is 1-1. Richard.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34How many top 40 singles do you think Wham! had in their career?
0:32:34 > 0:32:39- Blooming millions.- Ten. Just ten.- Really?- Yeah.
0:32:39 > 0:32:43- Just ten top 40 singles. They split up quite soon.- Oh, that's true.
0:32:43 > 0:32:47Let's take a look at all ten. One of them is a pointless answer.
0:32:47 > 0:32:52If anybody at home, I doubt this very much, said Club Fantastic Megamix...
0:32:52 > 0:32:55LAUGHTER ..that's a pointless answer.
0:32:55 > 0:33:01The Edge Of Heaven/Where Did Your Heart Go? was a number one single, would've got three.
0:33:01 > 0:33:04Young Guns (Go For It) would've scored three points.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06Bad Boys, four. Freedom, five.
0:33:08 > 0:33:12Wham Rap with 11. I'm Your Man, 13. Club Tropicana, drinks are free,
0:33:12 > 0:33:15fun and sunshine, et cetera, would've scored you 28.
0:33:15 > 0:33:19Last Christmas, 31. Didn't get to number one, Last Christmas.
0:33:19 > 0:33:23And Wake My Up Before You Go Go was the most popular of all, 47 points.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26Very good. Here is your third question.
0:33:26 > 0:33:30Whoever wins this point is in the final
0:33:30 > 0:33:33with a chance to play for £5,000, just so you know.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:33:36 > 0:33:43as many Victorian prime ministers as they could. Richard.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46There were ten British prime ministers during the reign of Queen Victoria,
0:33:46 > 0:33:52including the prime minister at the time of her accession and the time of her death. Who is the most obscure?
0:33:52 > 0:33:57OK. And it's Joanna and Phil to answer first this time.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09OK, do you have an answer?
0:34:09 > 0:34:14Yeah. It's a bit of a difficult one, so we're going to take a stab at Benjamin Disraeli.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16Benjamin Disraeli. OK.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19Gavin and Louise.
0:34:19 > 0:34:23We really don't... History again.
0:34:23 > 0:34:26We keep getting ones with history.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29- Go for it.- Let's go for it.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32- Lord Asquith.- Lord Asquith. OK.
0:34:32 > 0:34:36So we have Disraeli from Joanna and Phil.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40Let's see if that's right and how many people said Benjamin Disraeli.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45It's right.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52- 27. - APPLAUSE
0:34:54 > 0:34:59Gavin and Louise, you're going out with a bit of a punt on Lord Asquith.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02- How confident are you? - Not very.- Not at all.
0:35:02 > 0:35:07- William Gladstone's going to be similar to Disraeli, so we thought we'd take a stab.- OK.
0:35:07 > 0:35:11That's how to do it. Let's hope it pays off for you. Lord Asquith.
0:35:11 > 0:35:15Let's see if that's correct and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:35:20 > 0:35:25Oh! Bad luck, Gavin and Louise. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer
0:35:25 > 0:35:27so the point goes to Joanna and Phil.
0:35:27 > 0:35:31After the third question, Joanna and Phil are through to the final. Richard.
0:35:31 > 0:35:36Really tough luck. Herbert Asquith was prime minister from 1908, so not in Victorian times.
0:35:36 > 0:35:42There's ten answers but only one is pointless. So the public know as much about Victorian prime ministers
0:35:42 > 0:35:48as they do about Wham! That's good news, for the Victorian Society, at least, if not Wham!
0:35:48 > 0:35:53Let's take a look. The Earl of Aberdeen was the only pointless answer.
0:35:53 > 0:35:58The Earl of Derby would've scored you two points, as would Lord Russell, Lord Rosebury and Lord Salisbury.
0:35:58 > 0:36:02Two points each. Sir Robert Peel and Lord Melbourne, four points each.
0:36:02 > 0:36:05Then Lord Palmerston, 10. Disraeli, 27.
0:36:05 > 0:36:10And if you had said Gladstone, you still would've lost, as you suspected. 31 points.
0:36:10 > 0:36:16OK, thanks, Richard. The losing pair at the end of the head to head, I'm afraid, is Gavin and Louise.
0:36:16 > 0:36:20Dear, oh, dear. You haven't done badly at all. You've been in the head to head twice.
0:36:20 > 0:36:24- Mm.- You've made it this far, so fantastic contestants.
0:36:24 > 0:36:28Who's going to be watching you at home? Who's cheering you on?
0:36:28 > 0:36:34The children will be sitting there and our older son, who's at university doing marine biology,
0:36:34 > 0:36:37is going to rip me to shreds over chemical symbols.
0:36:37 > 0:36:42- Really?- Yes.- And how much, frankly, does he know about Wham!?
0:36:42 > 0:36:45- Not a lot.- There you are.
0:36:45 > 0:36:51Anyway, you've been wonderful contestants. Lovely having you on the show. Thanks for playing.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53APPLAUSE
0:36:53 > 0:36:57For Joanna and Phil, it's now time for our Pointless final and the chance to win £5,000.
0:37:01 > 0:37:07Congratulations, Joanna and Phil. You fought off the competition and won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:37:13 > 0:37:14APPLAUSE
0:37:14 > 0:37:22Now, though, you have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot. The jackpot stands at £5,000.
0:37:22 > 0:37:26- AUDIENCE: Oooh! - The rules are very simple.
0:37:26 > 0:37:30To win that money, find a pointless answer that no-one could think of.
0:37:30 > 0:37:35We haven't had any pointless answers on the show today. Find one now and you go home with that money.
0:37:35 > 0:37:40First you have to choose a category. Here are your three options to choose from.
0:37:46 > 0:37:51Capital cities, transport or screen sirens.
0:37:51 > 0:37:57Can we not do transport, please? You want to do transport, don't you?
0:37:57 > 0:38:03- I like transport.- I know. - Gets you from place to place. - He likes cars lots.- You call it.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06- Then I can blame you. - We'll go with transport.
0:38:06 > 0:38:10THEY LAUGH
0:38:10 > 0:38:13I like what you've done there, Joanna. Brilliant.
0:38:13 > 0:38:18Joanna's called it for Phil. Transport it is. Let's find out what the question is.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:38:21 > 0:38:27to name as many London Underground stations in Zone 1 as they could. Richard.
0:38:27 > 0:38:31Yeah, a really tricky one. We're looking for any London Underground station in Zone 1
0:38:31 > 0:38:36on the official Transport for London tube map of 2010.
0:38:36 > 0:38:40Right. You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:38:40 > 0:38:46All you need to win £5,000 is for one answers to be pointless. Your 60 seconds start now.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49- Zone 1 must be outskirts. - No, Zone 1 is inner.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51- In the middle? Are you sure?- Yeah.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53OK.
0:38:53 > 0:38:57Well, there's things like Elephant and Castle. Is that in the middle?
0:38:58 > 0:39:03- I'm not sure. - Erm, there's...- Albert Square.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06- Covent Garden. Albert Square! - SHE LAUGHS
0:39:06 > 0:39:11- Was it lines or was it... - Stations. Covent Garden.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14- Erm...- 20 seconds left.
0:39:15 > 0:39:20- So we'll go for Covent Garden, Elephant and Castle and Victoria? - Yeah, just go for those.
0:39:20 > 0:39:24- OK, you have three answers.- Yeah. - Oh, dear, it sounds like...
0:39:24 > 0:39:30- Not a good one for us.- Sounds like it hasn't been a good one for you. - Screen sirens, please.
0:39:30 > 0:39:33OK, so your three answers are
0:39:33 > 0:39:38- Victoria, Elephant and Castle and... - Covent Garden.- Covent Garden.
0:39:38 > 0:39:42OK, which of those do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:42 > 0:39:44- None of the above. - SHE LAUGHS
0:39:44 > 0:39:48- You're not interested what order they go in.- Not particularly.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51We'll put Covent Garden first.
0:39:51 > 0:39:57Elephant and Castle and Victoria. There they are.
0:39:57 > 0:40:01We were looking for Underground stations in Zone 1.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04This is your first crack at the jackpot.
0:40:04 > 0:40:08It needs to be pointless for you to win that money. Covent Garden.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11Let's see if it's right and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:40:13 > 0:40:15It's right.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20Down it goes.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24Into the 20s. Into the teens!
0:40:24 > 0:40:26Nine!
0:40:26 > 0:40:28Oh, well. At least it wasn't wrong
0:40:28 > 0:40:31It wasn't wrong. Nine's a very respectable score.
0:40:31 > 0:40:37Sadly, it's not pointless. Nine people said Covent Garden, so it's not pointless.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39You've got two shots left at today's jackpot.
0:40:39 > 0:40:44OK, we are looking for Zone 1 Underground stations. Let's hope nobody said your next answer.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48This has to be pointless to win the jackpot. Elephant and Castle.
0:40:48 > 0:40:52Let's see if that's correct and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55This for £5,000.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00It's correct.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03It's a correct answer.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08I would have thought a considerably less well-known station. Down it goes.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11This for £5,000! Ohh!
0:41:11 > 0:41:13Oh-ho!
0:41:14 > 0:41:18- Wow.- That is annoying.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20That's really annoying, isn't it?
0:41:20 > 0:41:23- Oh, yeah.- Two people knew that!
0:41:23 > 0:41:30- So who'll be watching this at home? - I would imagine everybody, all the work colleagues, all the family,
0:41:30 > 0:41:34- all the friends.- They're all looking in the back of the A to Z now.
0:41:34 > 0:41:39- Shouting expletives at us. - Expletives? I was thinking maybe names of Underground stations,
0:41:39 > 0:41:44but maybe expletives. Anyway, this is your final answer.
0:41:44 > 0:41:49Victoria. This has to be pointless. Please can it be pointless?
0:41:49 > 0:41:53For £5,000, let's hope it is correct and let's hope nobody said it. Victoria.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58It's right.
0:42:03 > 0:42:07Down it goes, into the 30s. All the way down will win you £5,000.
0:42:07 > 0:42:11APPLAUSE
0:42:11 > 0:42:14Well done, anyway.
0:42:14 > 0:42:20Unfortunately, you came so close, but you didn't manage to find that crucial pointless answer
0:42:20 > 0:42:24so you don't win today's jackpot. That rolls over to the next show.
0:42:24 > 0:42:29But you have been amazing and you do get to take home our wonderful Pointless trophy.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31APPLAUSE
0:42:32 > 0:42:35Oh! Richard.
0:42:35 > 0:42:39Yeah, tough luck. There's some real stinkers behind those categories sometimes.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42But Elephant and Castle was very close to a pointless answer.
0:42:42 > 0:42:46There were nine pointless answers. Let's take a look at some of them.
0:43:03 > 0:43:07Well done if you got any of those without looking at an A to Z.
0:43:07 > 0:43:10Well, unfortunately, we do have to say goodbye to you, Joanna and Phil.
0:43:10 > 0:43:14You've been fantastic. Thank you for playing. Brilliant contestants.
0:43:14 > 0:43:17APPLAUSE
0:43:19 > 0:43:26So nobody's won our jackpot today, so it rolls over again. On the next show, we'll be playing for £6,000.
0:43:26 > 0:43:29- AUDIENCE: Ooooh!- Join us next time to see if someone can win it.
0:43:29 > 0:43:33- So it's goodbye from Richard. - Goodbye. - And goodbye from me. Goodbye.
