0:00:17 > 0:00:19CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Thank you. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:27 > 0:00:30the quiz show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Let's meet today's players.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39Welcome back, Darren and Keith. You were on the show last time.
0:00:39 > 0:00:44Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final and this is your second chance.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Remind us what happened, Darren.
0:00:45 > 0:00:50Erm, well, we came across a question that is way before our time
0:00:50 > 0:00:53and I had to end up guessing it and did quite well
0:00:53 > 0:00:56and Keith knew a little bit but did quite awful.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58LAUGHTER
0:00:58 > 0:01:01- What do you do in your spare time, Darren?- I am a football referee.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04And this is something you voluntarily went into?
0:01:04 > 0:01:06- Yes.- Wow.- Yeah, since 14.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09- Seriously, had you always wanted to do that?- Yeah, yeah.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12I used to go out on the streets when I was about ten,
0:01:12 > 0:01:16- blowing a whistle, pretending to know what I was doing.- Blimey.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20- How about you, Keith? - Spare time?- Yeah.- Er...
0:01:20 > 0:01:23- You don't really have it.- No. - You're a law student, aren't you?
0:01:23 > 0:01:26- I'm reading books and whatnot. - Exactly.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29If law comes up this afternoon, I expect you'll be, er...
0:01:29 > 0:01:34- Richard, change your mind.- It never really has, has it?- Not really.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36There's a couple of refereeing questions but nothing on law.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42Very good. Very best of luck to the pair of you.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45And next we welcome Lesley and Ben. How do you know each other?
0:01:45 > 0:01:46We ex-colleagues.
0:01:46 > 0:01:51We worked together in a hospital and we've been friends ever since.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53- Whose idea was it to come on Pointless?- Mine.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56- Lesley, he dragged you along. - Yeah, yeah.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58He hasn't got many friends.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02What categories are you hoping are going to come up, Ben?
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Entertainment, film, television, music.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Lesley, you nodded along to all of those. "Yes, yes."
0:02:09 > 0:02:12The same, really. Yeah. Music.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15If a sport question comes up...?
0:02:15 > 0:02:17We're running.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22- Yeah, we'd have to run away. - That's never happened before.
0:02:22 > 0:02:23I'm quite looking forward to that.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26Very best of luck. Great having you here.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Next, we welcome Steve and Karen. How do you know each other?
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Well, we're married, husband and wife.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36We've been together for... We've been married four and half years
0:02:36 > 0:02:39and before that, we were boyfriend and girlfriend.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41It often... It's amazing.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44It's so weird. That happens nearly all the time, doesn't it?
0:02:44 > 0:02:49Blimey. And then before that, you probably didn't know each other.
0:02:49 > 0:02:50Whoo!
0:02:50 > 0:02:55- Steve, what are you hoping is going to come up? - Entertainment, film, music...
0:02:55 > 0:02:58- the usual mishmash. - The usual mishmash.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Karen, anything else you're going to bring to the party?
0:03:01 > 0:03:05- Erm, food and drink.- I thought you said fruit and veg for a moment.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08"Fruit and veg." "Oh, fruit and veg, yeah.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13- "What?!"- I'm really into them. - Well, very good.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Oh, you're good on the slightly more obscure veg, then.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Best of luck to the pair of you. Great to have you here.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22Finally, we welcome back Stephanie and Pamela.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24You were on the show last time. How did you do?
0:03:24 > 0:03:27We did quite well. We got through to the head-to-head
0:03:27 > 0:03:33and then we were stumped on a question that we should have known better about - disco.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37- And...- Ottawan!- ..we should have gone through.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40What categories would you like to come up, Stephanie?
0:03:40 > 0:03:43- Science and nature.- Science and nature.- That would be nice.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Well, from what everyone else has said, you're going to clean up.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Pamela, how about you? - I'd like something on Australia.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54I lived there for seven years, so that would be handy.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- Every so often, they do come up. - Yeah. Fingers crossed.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00We'll find out more about all of you through the show.
0:04:00 > 0:04:05There's only one person left to introduce. He shuns popularity and celebrates obscurity,
0:04:05 > 0:04:08- he is my Pointless friend, he's Richard.- Hiya.
0:04:12 > 0:04:17- Hello there.- Hello there, sir. How are you?- Very well. How are you?
0:04:17 > 0:04:19- I'm extremely well, thank you. - Excellent.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23It's a good show. Stephanie and Pamela were excellent last time,
0:04:23 > 0:04:26so they'll want to go into the final.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28We didn't see much of Darren and Keith.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Darren was unbelievably fluky.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33He had a category he'd literally never heard of
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- and then scored a pointless answer.- Mm.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39But I was just looking at the questions.
0:04:39 > 0:04:40I don't want to give you bad news
0:04:40 > 0:04:44but I looked at the first one, I thought, "Blimey, that's hard."
0:04:44 > 0:04:47And then I looked at the second one and that's even harder.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- I mean, two tough questions to start with.- Wow.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53- Interesting, both of them, but tough. - OK. But tough for everyone.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57We put all our questions to 100 people before the show
0:04:57 > 0:05:01but this is Pointless, so we are after the obscure answers that they didn't get.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Everyone is trying to find a pointless answer,
0:05:03 > 0:05:06an answer that none of our 100 people gave.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Nobody won the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that,
0:05:12 > 0:05:18so today's jackpot starts off at a dizzying £2,500.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20WHOOPING
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Very good. Let's play Pointless.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28CHEERING
0:05:29 > 0:05:33Now, in the first round, each of you must give me one answer
0:05:33 > 0:05:35and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38The team with the highest score at the end of the round is eliminated.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40If anyone gives me an incorrect answer,
0:05:40 > 0:05:44then you will score the maximum of 100 points.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46OK, our first category this afternoon is...
0:05:49 > 0:05:53Decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second
0:05:53 > 0:05:56and whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02OK, let's find out what this difficult question is.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:06:05 > 0:06:10to name as many biggest selling artists of 2010 as they could.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- Richard?- We're looking for any artist or group
0:06:13 > 0:06:17who had one of the top 40 best-selling albums of 2010.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21Compilation albums don't count but greatest hits count.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24So any artist who's had one of the top 40 best-selling albums
0:06:24 > 0:06:26throughout the whole of 2010.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28There are 35 names on the list
0:06:28 > 0:06:32because some of these acts have had more than one of those albums
0:06:32 > 0:06:33but they only count once.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36And this is according to the Official Charts Company.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Darren and Keith.
0:06:40 > 0:06:44I'm going to go for a definite... play a safe bet,
0:06:44 > 0:06:49in the hope that Darren might get an obscure one.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Er, I'll go for Lady Gaga.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Lady Gaga. Pretty fair assumption.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57You hope to score as few points as possible with her.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Let's see if Lady Gaga is correct
0:06:59 > 0:07:01and if it is, how many people said Lady Gaga.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12- 20. That's not a bad score at all, Keith.- I'm pleased with that.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16Not a bad score at all.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18- Lady Gaga, Richard. - Well played, Keith.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22Her album The Fame sold more than one million copies in 2010.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Very good, thank you. OK, now then, Lesley.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29We are looking for the biggest selling artists of 2010.
0:07:29 > 0:07:35- It's someone that's probably quite popular but...- I'm guessing.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39- ..Justin Bieber.- Justin Bieber.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43Is Justin Bieber correct and if it is, how many people said it?
0:07:43 > 0:07:45It's right.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50Oh!
0:07:50 > 0:07:51APPLAUSE
0:07:54 > 0:07:56That's a very, very good answer, Lesley.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00Justin Bieber scores you just two points.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Well done, Lesley.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07And if you've never heard of Justin Bieber at home, then I envy you.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09- What a lovely state of affairs to be in.- Ah!
0:08:09 > 0:08:13Remember, we are looking for the biggest selling artists of 2010.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17Steve, Steve. Something tells me you might be quite good at this.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20- Do you follow the charts? - Chart music isn't quite my thing.
0:08:20 > 0:08:25- Right.- I'm going to go with Kings Of Leon.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27OK, you're hoping to score as few points as possible.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29Let's see if that is a correct answer
0:08:29 > 0:08:33and if it is, how many of our 100 people said Kings Of Leon.
0:08:35 > 0:08:36Well done.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Down it comes.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Oh, very, very well done.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50Two points to you, there, Steve. A credit to you, sir.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- Richard.- Well played, Steve.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56Kings Of Leon have two albums in that list.
0:08:56 > 0:09:00They had Come Around Sundown, which was a number one in 2010,
0:09:00 > 0:09:03and their previous album, Only By The Night,
0:09:03 > 0:09:06was still selling enough to be a top 40 album.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08First released in 2008.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11Now then, Stephanie. What are you thinking, Stephanie?
0:09:11 > 0:09:15I've got two possibilities.
0:09:15 > 0:09:21- Mm.- And I'm going to have a bit of a punt and say Elbow.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- Elbow.- Yes.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Let's see if Elbow is a correct answer
0:09:25 > 0:09:28and if it is, let's see how many people said Elbow.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Bad luck, Stephanie.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38Elbow is an incorrect answer
0:09:38 > 0:09:41which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43- Richard. Elbow. - Yeah, unlucky, Stephanie.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47Their big-selling album was The Seldom Seen Kid, released in 2008,
0:09:47 > 0:09:50so it wasn't on the list for 2010, unfortunately.
0:09:50 > 0:09:55OK, we're halfway through the round, so let's take a look at the scores.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57On two points, Steve and Karen,
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Lesley and Ben,
0:09:59 > 0:10:01looking absolutely rock solid.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03A little bit ahead of them, Keith and Darren on 20
0:10:03 > 0:10:08and then way out at the front of the pack, Stephanie and Pamela on 100.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Pamela, you know what you have to do.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:10:17 > 0:10:21OK, remember, we are looking for the biggest selling artists of 2010.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25- Pamela?- OK, erm... - Do you follow the charts?
0:10:25 > 0:10:29- I did do but I've... - Did you in 2010?
0:10:29 > 0:10:32No, not in the UK. I was in Australia at the time,
0:10:32 > 0:10:34so I'm kind of a bit torn.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38We're on the high score, so I'll really have to take a punt.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42Were there any crossover stars from the Australian charts?
0:10:42 > 0:10:46There was and one of the bands that I'm thinking of... But I'm not going to do that.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49I'm going to punt for Rumer.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Rumer. Well, let's put that to the test.
0:10:54 > 0:10:55No red line for you
0:10:55 > 0:10:57because you're high scorers.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59If that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02It's right. Very well done, Pamela.
0:11:04 > 0:11:08- Go on, go on, go on. - Down it goes.- Go on.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10- Look at that! - CHEERING
0:11:10 > 0:11:14Very, very well done, Pamela. Rumer is a pointless answer.
0:11:14 > 0:11:19It adds 250 quid to today's jackpot, taking the total up to:
0:11:19 > 0:11:22and crucially, Pamela, it scores you nothing,
0:11:22 > 0:11:26- leaving your total at 100.- Yeah. - Very well done indeed. Richard.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Well played, Pamela. Seasons Of My Soul.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32It peaked at number three in November 2010
0:11:32 > 0:11:34but one of the 40 best-selling albums.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36Very good. Thanks very much, Richard.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40So, remember, we are looking for the biggest selling artists of 2010.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Karen, we come to you.
0:11:43 > 0:11:48The high scorers are Pamela and Stephanie on 100.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52You are on two. If you can score 97 points or fewer,
0:11:52 > 0:11:54you are through to the next round.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57I think I'm going to go with Plan B.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Plan B. I think that might not be a bad answer.
0:12:01 > 0:12:07OK. I love the way I give my opinion because I'm really down with...
0:12:07 > 0:12:08As you can tell.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11OK, there's your red line. You have to get below that red line.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Plan B, I hope, will take you there.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said Plan B.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21Very well done, Karen. That's brilliant.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27- Very well done indeed! - CHEERING
0:12:27 > 0:12:31All the way down to zero. Plan B, another pointless answer.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33That adds £250 to the jackpot,
0:12:33 > 0:12:37taking the total up to:
0:12:37 > 0:12:41and it scores you nothing, leaving your total at two.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43- Richard.- Very well played, Karen.
0:12:43 > 0:12:48That's two pointless answers in a row. We've never had three, so no pressure, Ben.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51The Plan B album, The Defamation Of Strickland Banks,
0:12:51 > 0:12:55was the fifth-highest selling album of 2010 but a pointless answer.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Very good indeed. Thank you, Richard.
0:12:57 > 0:13:02So, then, Ben, like Richard says, no pressure.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05I don't think I'm going to get a pointless answer.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08It sounds like you've got a good one, though.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12I'm not really a chart music fan but my niece and nephew are
0:13:12 > 0:13:15- and they'd kill me if I didn't get this one right.- OK.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18I'm going to go with my niece's favourite band, JLS.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21Right you are. OK, well, there is your red line.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24If JLS can take you down below that red line, you are through.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Let's see if JLS is right and if it is, how people said it.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30It's right. You are through.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37- 18.- Not too bad. - APPLAUSE
0:13:38 > 0:13:41We still haven't managed to get our three pointlesses in a row.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44That scores you 18, taking your total up to 20. Richard.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Well played, Ben. Safe and sound.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49They're another of the acts with two albums on the list,
0:13:49 > 0:13:52their debut album, JLS, and Outta This World.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- "Owda"?- Outta This World. - O-U-T-A?
0:13:55 > 0:13:57O-U-T-T-A. "Out of."
0:13:57 > 0:14:00To give JLS their credit, in Outta This World,
0:14:00 > 0:14:04they spelt both the words "this" and "world" correctly.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Remember, we are looking for the biggest-selling artists of 2010.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Now, then, Darren.
0:14:12 > 0:14:17- Erm...- The high scorers remain Pamela and Stephanie on 100 points.
0:14:17 > 0:14:22If you can score 79 points or less, you're through to the next round.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25Darren, I have a feeling you might be able to pluck a pointless.
0:14:25 > 0:14:31I'm going to stick along the theme with reality and TV shows
0:14:31 > 0:14:32and say Susan Boyle.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34There is your red line, Darren.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Let's see if Susan Boyle, or SuBo to give her her full name...
0:14:39 > 0:14:41can get you below there.
0:14:45 > 0:14:49It's right. Well done, Darren. You are through to the next round.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55Look at that! Four. Brilliant answer, Darren.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Very well done. It takes your total up to 24.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04- Richard.- Yeah, Susan Boyle. Well done, Darren.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06She reached number one in the UK and the US
0:15:06 > 0:15:08with her album, which was called The Gift
0:15:08 > 0:15:12but probably should have been called Did You Keep The Receipt?
0:15:14 > 0:15:18- What about some other answers? - There's lots of low-scoring answers.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20There's Mumford And Sons, Biffy Clyro.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24Michael Buble had the second biggest selling album of the year.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27The xx was a low-scoring one but there's lots of pointless ones.
0:15:27 > 0:15:28Let's take a look.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32Oasis, they had a "best of" in that year.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36Glee Cast, AC/DC, who did the soundtrack to Iron Man 2,
0:15:36 > 0:15:37they were pointless.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40Bon Jovi. Plan B, we've already heard.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42The Script, the Irish band, a big-selling album.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46Gorillaz, Paolo Nutini, the Scottish singer,
0:15:46 > 0:15:48and Rumer, which we heard from Pamela.
0:15:48 > 0:15:49All of those were pointless.
0:15:49 > 0:15:54Let's take a look at the worst answers, the most obvious answers.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57We've heard number three from Keith, it was Lady Gaga.
0:15:57 > 0:16:02Another artist with two albums in the list is Rihanna, 24,
0:16:02 > 0:16:07and the best-selling album of 2010, Take That, with 38 points.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Thank you very much, Richard.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13So at the end of round one, the losing pair, I'm sorry to say,
0:16:13 > 0:16:17- it's Pamela and Stephanie, and that with a pointless answer.- Yeah.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19- And a brilliant pointless answer. - Gutted.
0:16:19 > 0:16:24From the Antipodes, from the other side of the world, you knew Rumer.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26- Yeah. How good's that?- Amazing.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30- But you've been excellent. Thank you for playing.- Thank you.
0:16:30 > 0:16:31- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:16:34 > 0:16:37But for the remaining three pairs, it's time for round two.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45Now, only two pairs can make it through to the head-to-head,
0:16:45 > 0:16:48so one team will be leaving us at the end of this round.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51OK, the category for this afternoon's second round is:
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Decide who's going to go first and who's going to go second
0:16:57 > 0:17:00and whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07OK. Our second round question concerns:
0:17:11 > 0:17:15OK, we're about to show you the medical names of some conditions and ailments.
0:17:15 > 0:17:20We asked 100 people to give us the names by which they are most commonly known.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22Richard.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25We're going to show you six medical names on each pass.
0:17:25 > 0:17:29You need to tell us the ailment or condition that that refers to.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32The more obscure ones will score you fewer points.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35If you give an incorrect answer, you will score 100 points.
0:17:35 > 0:17:39See how many of the 12 across the two passes you can get at home.
0:17:39 > 0:17:40OK, thanks, Richard.
0:17:40 > 0:17:46We're looking for the names by which these medical conditions and ailments are commonly known.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48We have got on our list:
0:17:56 > 0:17:58I'll read those again.
0:18:07 > 0:18:12Keith, all that time in the law library reading your legal books
0:18:12 > 0:18:17and it turns out it was medical texts you needed to be studying.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21- I should be a doctor.- I'll be the judge of that, based on your answer.
0:18:22 > 0:18:27I recognise one in particular that I think might be low-scoring.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30- Very good. - But what I have as well...
0:18:31 > 0:18:36- Not... That sounds bad. - You have one of these conditions?
0:18:37 > 0:18:40I think so, with what I'm going to say.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44- OK, well, OK.- It's perfectly harmless.- Right, you are.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46Again, I'll be the judge of that.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50- I'm going to go for myopia...- Yes.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53..and I think that's short-sightedness.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Myopia, short-sightedness. Let's see if that's correct
0:18:56 > 0:19:00and if it is, let's see how many people knew that myopia was short-sightedness
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Very well done, Keith.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08- 51. - APPLAUSE
0:19:11 > 0:19:16Surprisingly high score, there, but it could be a lot worse, Keith. 51.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Yeah, short-sightedness or near-sightedness.
0:19:18 > 0:19:215 million people in Britain have that.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23Sorry, 15 million.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27No, 5 million.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30Ben, we are looking for the more common names
0:19:30 > 0:19:33for these conditions and ailments.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36- Have you had any of these conditions?- I have the bottom one.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38hence the glasses.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41- Oh, I see. Phew.- Not the bottom one.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47Sorry.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Do you know any of these conditions?
0:19:51 > 0:19:56I think I might but I'm going to take a guess on one.
0:19:56 > 0:20:01Myocardial infarction I'm going to guess is angina.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05Myocardial infarction, angina.
0:20:06 > 0:20:11Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people knew that answer.
0:20:13 > 0:20:18Oh! Bad luck. Ben, I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer,
0:20:18 > 0:20:22which means you score the maximum of 100 points. Richard.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25Yes, I suspect that may not be the only 100 points of the round.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27I won't tell you what myocardial infarction is
0:20:27 > 0:20:31- in case Steve wants to have a go at that question.- Thanks, Richard.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Now, then, Steve. You're the last person to have this board,
0:20:34 > 0:20:38so you can talk us through all of those conditions and ailments.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Myocardial, yeah, heart.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42I thought possibly that was angina as well.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47Tinea pedis. Ped, I'm thinking, possibly, foot,
0:20:47 > 0:20:49- so is that athlete's foot?- OK.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52I'm wondering if varicella is varicose veins.
0:20:52 > 0:20:56I've got no clue whatsoever about Daltonism
0:20:56 > 0:20:59and I think hypertension might be cramp.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03So I'm going to go... Mm, but I'm not certain.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05I'm going for hypertension as cramp.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09You're going for hypertension, cramp.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:21:11 > 0:21:15let's see how many people said hypertension was cramp.
0:21:18 > 0:21:23Oh, bad luck. I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer,
0:21:23 > 0:21:26which means you score the maximum of 100 points. Richard?
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Hypertension is high blood pressure, I'm afraid.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30Sorry about that.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35One of the make-up women earlier was saying you've got a tinea pedis.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41- You should have gone for it, Steve. It is athlete's foot...- Oh!
0:21:41 > 0:21:44..and it would have scored you one point.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47One point.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Myocardial infarction is the medical name for a heart attack.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53It was fairly high scorer, though - 37.
0:21:53 > 0:21:58- Varicella is what your son has currently.- Chicken pox.- Chicken pox.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00That would have scored you six.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Daltonism is a pointless answer,
0:22:02 > 0:22:04so well done at home if you said colour-blindness.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Daltonism is colour-blindness.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10There it is there, in black and yellow.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Thank you very much, Richard.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16Let's take a look at those scores.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20On 51 points, Keith...
0:22:21 > 0:22:25- I'm doing a bit better this time round.- You were worried that 51 was a high score.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Little did you know.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31Ben and Steve, well, two 100s,
0:22:31 > 0:22:35so at least it's not just one of you way out ahead.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39It just means the pressure is on Lesley and Karen,
0:22:39 > 0:22:41so everything to play for in the next pass.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:22:48 > 0:22:52We're going to put six more medical conditions or ailments on the board.
0:22:52 > 0:22:53Here they are.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06Let me read those again.
0:23:14 > 0:23:19We are looking for the names by which these ailments or conditions are better known,
0:23:19 > 0:23:20more commonly known.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23You want to find the one that the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:23:23 > 0:23:24Now then, Karen?
0:23:24 > 0:23:29- I think I've got the one I'm going to say...- OK.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31..unless I'm very wrong.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35But I'm going to say allergic rhinitis is hayfever.
0:23:35 > 0:23:40OK, you're going to say that allergic rhinitis is hayfever.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44- Do you suffer from hayfever? - Well, I have it all year round.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46- What?!- I know. I'm allergic to everything.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49- Your poor thing. - Yes. It's a bit rubbish.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53It's a lot rubbish. OK, let's see if that's right
0:23:53 > 0:23:56and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59You have no red line because you are the high scorers.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Very well done, anyway. It's right.
0:24:04 > 0:24:1036, that scores you. It takes your total up to 136.
0:24:11 > 0:24:16- Richard.- I expect that's the first time hayfever's been of use to you.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20You've got about a 20% chance of having hayfever if you're born in Britain.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23- 20%?- It's very, very common, yeah.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26Now, then, Lesley. We're looking for the more common names
0:24:26 > 0:24:28of these medical conditions and ailments.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31Lesley, this is the real contest here.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34136 is Karen and Steve's high score.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37You are on 100. You have to score 35 or less
0:24:37 > 0:24:39to be through to the head-to-head.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Are there any you think you might know?
0:24:42 > 0:24:45I'll go for the halitosis.
0:24:45 > 0:24:46Is it bad breath?
0:24:46 > 0:24:49Halitosis, bad breath, you're thinking.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51OK, well, here is your red line.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54If halitosis gets you below that red line,
0:24:54 > 0:24:56you're through to the next round.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01Let's see if it's right and if it is, let's see how many people said halitosis, bad breath.
0:25:05 > 0:25:06It's right.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10Oh! Bad luck, Lesley.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12I'm afraid that scores you 66,
0:25:12 > 0:25:16which takes your total up to an unbeatable 166 points.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18- Richard?- Yes, a very big score, 66,
0:25:18 > 0:25:23which tells you a lot about the man who asked the questions of our 100 people, I think.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Now then, Darren.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Possibly... I couldn't even pronounce the bottom one.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Lateral epicondylitis.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35I'll guess with that one, arthritis.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39- Arthritis. Keith...- I've no idea.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42You heard Keith, his little er...
0:25:42 > 0:25:44I heard lateral and thought, well, that's late
0:25:44 > 0:25:46and old people have arthritis.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50- It's late?- That is my only logic.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Lateral epicondylitis.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Is that arthritis?
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Let's see if it is and let's see how many people said it.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Ah, I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer
0:26:05 > 0:26:09but it couldn't matter less, you are through to the head-to-head.
0:26:09 > 0:26:13- Richard?- It's actually tennis elbow, lateral epicondylitis,
0:26:13 > 0:26:17named after the Greek tennis player, Demetrious Epicondylitis.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Not really.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Not really. Let's take a look at the rest of them.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25Rubella is German measles.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29Epistaxis is nosebleed.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33Epi's taxis is also just round the corner from us. We use them a lot.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36That would have scored you 8 points.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39These are very difficult, I think, unless you've had them.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41If you've had them you know the names.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43And otalgia... Do you know otalgia?
0:26:43 > 0:26:46- I don't know.- Earache. Earache would have scored you ten points.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50So the best answer was lateral epicondylitis.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Very well done if you got that at home,
0:26:52 > 0:26:53unlucky if you've got it at home.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55- LAUGHTER - Thanks, Richard.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58So at the end of round two, the pair with the highest score,
0:26:58 > 0:27:00I'm afraid it's Lesley and Ben.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Bad luck, bad luck.
0:27:03 > 0:27:08- Lesley, you knew everyone else's answers.- Yeah.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10It was just your own that was... that was a tough one.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13Halitosis was a correct one
0:27:13 > 0:27:16and myocardial infarction, I'm afraid was...
0:27:16 > 0:27:20- You see, angina - they're closely related.- Yeah.
0:27:20 > 0:27:23Well, I'm sorry to be saying goodbye to you. You've been great.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25- Thanks for playing.- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:27:28 > 0:27:33But for the remaining two pairs, things get even more exciting as we enter the head-to-head.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41So, Steve and Karen, Darren and Keith,
0:27:41 > 0:27:43you're through to the head-to-head.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46Only one pair can make it to today's final
0:27:46 > 0:27:50and play for the jackpot, which currently stands at £3,000.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53APPLAUSE AND CHEERS
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Right, you're going head-to-head on the best of three questions.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02For each question, each pair needs to give me just one answer
0:28:02 > 0:28:04and you are now allowed to confer.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06If your answer scores less than the other pair,
0:28:06 > 0:28:08you will win that question.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11The pair that gets the best of three will play for the jackpot.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Let's play Pointless.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19OK, here is your first question.
0:28:19 > 0:28:23We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many:
0:28:26 > 0:28:29OK, so Australia is 3 million square miles
0:28:29 > 0:28:32and there are five countries in the world bigger than that.
0:28:32 > 0:28:36You have to work out what they are and tell us the most obscure one.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38See if you can work out all five at home.
0:28:38 > 0:28:43By country, we mean a member of the UN that is a sovereign state.
0:28:43 > 0:28:45Thank you very much, Richard.
0:28:45 > 0:28:49OK, Steve and Karen, you've played best so far, so you get to go first.
0:28:49 > 0:28:51We are looking for countries larger than Australia.
0:28:51 > 0:28:56THEY WHISPER
0:28:56 > 0:28:59- We're going to say China. - You're going to say China.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01OK, Steve and Karen are going with China.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04Darren and Keith, you can do your thinking out loud now.
0:29:04 > 0:29:05China has gone.
0:29:05 > 0:29:09It's a pretty good answer. Erm...
0:29:09 > 0:29:13- We think we've got three, don't we? - Yeah. We've got Russia, obviously.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16Canada, United States...
0:29:17 > 0:29:21- What's that fifth one?- I don't know.
0:29:21 > 0:29:23- Brazil might be a big one.- Brazil?
0:29:23 > 0:29:28I think it's worth a punt because I think China will be hard to beat.
0:29:28 > 0:29:32- OK, yeah, sure.- Brazil. - You're going to say Brazil?- Yeah.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34OK, so we have China and we have Brazil.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37Steve and Karen said China. Let's see if that's right
0:29:37 > 0:29:40and if it is, let's see how many people said China.
0:29:43 > 0:29:45Well, it's right, unsurprisingly.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48- 72. Ooh. - APPLAUSE
0:29:51 > 0:29:54That's quite a high score, there.
0:29:54 > 0:29:57How are you feeling about Brazil now?
0:29:57 > 0:29:59- Are you happy with Brazil?- No.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04Let's see if it's right and if it is, how people said Brazil.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10It's right! And down it goes. Very good.
0:30:11 > 0:30:1334 for Brazil.
0:30:18 > 0:30:23Well, we are one question down and Darren and Keith are ahead, one-nil.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27- Richard.- Well played, Keith. A brave answer and a right answer.
0:30:27 > 0:30:30Canada would have won it as well. Let's take a look at all five.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38The largest country of all gets the most points -
0:30:38 > 0:30:40Russia with 92.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44Thanks very much, Richard. OK, here is your second question.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47Darren and Keith, if you win this question, you are through to the final.
0:30:47 > 0:30:53We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many Open All Hours actors
0:30:53 > 0:30:55as they could.
0:30:55 > 0:30:59Name any of the actors or actresses who appeared in ten or more episodes
0:30:59 > 0:31:00of Open All Hours.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02There are five names on the list.
0:31:02 > 0:31:07OK. Now, then, Darren and Keith, you get to go first this time.
0:31:07 > 0:31:11- Do you watch it?- I've watched a few. - You're ahead of me.
0:31:12 > 0:31:16- I'm trying to think of the other one.- Just go with one you know
0:31:16 > 0:31:17that is correct.
0:31:17 > 0:31:22I'm trying desperately to remember her name and I can't,
0:31:22 > 0:31:24so I'm going to go for David Jason.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26David Jason. OK, you're going to say David Jason.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31Steve and Karen, you can do your thinking out loud now.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33OK, there's the two obvious ones.
0:31:33 > 0:31:38I trying to think if Kathy Staff was in Open All Hours...
0:31:38 > 0:31:42- I don't think she was. - ..as a regular customer but I'm not 100% certain.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45- I think you're onto something with Nurse Gladys Emmanuel.- Nurse Gladys.
0:31:45 > 0:31:49It's sitting in my brain somewhere that her name was Lynda Baron
0:31:49 > 0:31:52and I'm reasonably certain enough to give it a punt.
0:31:52 > 0:31:57Lynda Baron. So we have David Jason, we have Lynda Baron.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00Darren and Keith said David Jason.
0:32:00 > 0:32:04Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10- 66. - APPLAUSE
0:32:10 > 0:32:12Well, it was right.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16We wanted a right answer.
0:32:16 > 0:32:19- Steve and Karen have gone for Lynda Baron. A bit of a punt?- Mm.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22But if it's right, it will go a long way down.
0:32:22 > 0:32:26Lynda Baron. Is it right and how people said it?
0:32:29 > 0:32:31Well done. It is right.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34And it wins you that question.
0:32:35 > 0:32:37- Down it goes. 16. - APPLAUSE
0:32:39 > 0:32:42Very well done, Steve and Karen.
0:32:43 > 0:32:47So after two questions, it is one-all. Very exciting. Richard.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Yeah, again brave and correct. Well done, Steve.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51Let's look at all five.
0:32:51 > 0:32:55Barbara Flynn, the milk woman, and Stephanie Cole, Mrs Featherstone,
0:32:55 > 0:32:56they both scored one point.
0:32:56 > 0:33:00Lynda Baron with 16. David Jason - whatever happened to him? 66.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02And Ronnie Barker at the top. 89.
0:33:02 > 0:33:06That's a very big score. What a popular show that was.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09Absolutely. Thanks, Richard. Here is your third question.
0:33:09 > 0:33:13We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many
0:33:13 > 0:33:17Shakespearean towns and cities as they could.
0:33:17 > 0:33:23- Richard?- We're looking for any town or city mentioned in the title of a Shakespearean play.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26There are five plays that have a town or a city in its title.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29See how many of those five you can get at home.
0:33:29 > 0:33:30OK, thanks, Richard.
0:33:30 > 0:33:34Now, Steve and Karen, you go first this time.
0:33:34 > 0:33:36THEY WHISPER
0:33:36 > 0:33:38- OK.- Right, long shot.
0:33:38 > 0:33:44But I know there's a play called Pericles, Prince Of Tyre
0:33:44 > 0:33:47and I'm hoping that Tyre is a place and not...
0:33:47 > 0:33:51I'm gonna hope that that's the name of a town or a city, so I'm going with Tyre.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53You're going with Tyre.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55Darren and Keith?
0:33:56 > 0:33:59Not big on our Shakespeare, if we're being honest.
0:33:59 > 0:34:04We did it once for GCSE English but since then...
0:34:04 > 0:34:06What was that? Macbeth?
0:34:06 > 0:34:11- Macbeth. That's not even remotely helpful at all.- Mick Beth?
0:34:11 > 0:34:15Erm... We're going to have to guess something.
0:34:15 > 0:34:20Hamlet is a person but possibly a town, maybe?
0:34:20 > 0:34:24- I just cannot think of any... - We'll just have to go with Hamlet.
0:34:24 > 0:34:28Yeah. We're grasping at straws and going for Hamlet.
0:34:28 > 0:34:29- Going for Hamlet.- OK.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32So we have Tyre and we have Hamlet.
0:34:32 > 0:34:36OK, well, Steve and Karen went with Tyre. Pericles, Prince of Tyre.
0:34:36 > 0:34:41Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:34:41 > 0:34:45I think it could be an exceptional answer. Tyre.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50Very well done. It is right.
0:34:55 > 0:34:57Two!
0:35:05 > 0:35:07Darren and Keith have gone for Hamlet.
0:35:07 > 0:35:09LAUGHTER
0:35:09 > 0:35:13- It's a kind of a place.- It could be...- But is it the name of a place?
0:35:13 > 0:35:16- Probably not.- No. - Only one way to find out.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19Let's see if it's right and if it is, how many people said Hamlet?
0:35:23 > 0:35:26Bad luck! Bad luck.
0:35:26 > 0:35:29So after three questions,
0:35:29 > 0:35:32Steve and Karen are through to the final, 2-1. Richard.
0:35:32 > 0:35:36Very good answer. Tyre was an ancient city of southern Lebanon.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38Pericles, Prince Of Tyre. It's not in his First Folio.
0:35:38 > 0:35:43He only wrote half of it, some scholars believe, but it's in modern collections.
0:35:43 > 0:35:48- Did you know that?- Pericles certainly is on the periphery, isn't it?
0:35:48 > 0:35:52The other half was written by Roy Clarke, who later wrote Open All Hours.
0:35:55 > 0:35:59Let's take a look at all five. I know some people will have got them all.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02Pericles, Prince Of Tyre, two points. Merry Wives Of Windsor, six.
0:36:02 > 0:36:06Timon Of Athens, ten. Two Gentlemen Of Verona, 25.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09I feel like a Shakespearean bingo caller.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12And Merchant Of Venice, 38!
0:36:12 > 0:36:14LAUGHTER
0:36:14 > 0:36:18The losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, it's Darren and Keith.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20You did brilliant.
0:36:21 > 0:36:24You came er... You came all the way through to the head-to-head.
0:36:24 > 0:36:28With Brazil, I suddenly thought, "Ah, you see,"
0:36:28 > 0:36:32and then, I'm afraid, David Jason, it was a correct answer
0:36:32 > 0:36:34and it was before your time.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37- And Shakespeare was before your time, too.- Ah, yes, he was.
0:36:37 > 0:36:42- Thanks so much for playing. Great contestants. Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:36:44 > 0:36:47But for Steve and Karen, it's now time for our Pointless final
0:36:47 > 0:36:50and the chance to win our jackpot of £3,000.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52CHEERING
0:36:55 > 0:36:59Well, congratulations, you've seen off the competition
0:36:59 > 0:37:01to win our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03APPLAUSE
0:37:07 > 0:37:09- Yes!- Very, very good.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:37:14 > 0:37:18At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at:
0:37:18 > 0:37:19WHOOPING
0:37:19 > 0:37:22- That's for you.- Mm.
0:37:22 > 0:37:23Now, the rules are very simple.
0:37:23 > 0:37:28To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer that none of our 100 people thought of.
0:37:28 > 0:37:32We've had two pointless answers today, consecutive pointless answers.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34You only need to find one more now
0:37:34 > 0:37:36and you will go home with that money.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39First, though, you have got to choose a category
0:37:39 > 0:37:41from these three options.
0:37:48 > 0:37:52- Wildlife or soul singers. - Wildlife or soul singers.
0:37:52 > 0:37:56- Let's have a punt on wildlife. - OK, wildlife, please.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59OK, let's find out what that question is.
0:37:59 > 0:38:05We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many British bats.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08We're looking for any bat species found in the wild in the UK,
0:38:08 > 0:38:12that's any resident species according to the Bat Conservation Trust,
0:38:12 > 0:38:15as of the start of 2011.
0:38:15 > 0:38:19There are 17 bat species which are resident in the UK
0:38:19 > 0:38:23and we're looking for their English names rather than their Latin names,
0:38:23 > 0:38:26if you were minded to give us the Latin names.
0:38:26 > 0:38:30OK, you now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:38:30 > 0:38:34All you need to win that £3,000 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:38:34 > 0:38:36Your 60 seconds start now.
0:38:36 > 0:38:40- OK.- Do you know any bats?- Fruit bat. - Oh, excellent, good.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43- One more than me. - There's possibly a short-eared bat.
0:38:43 > 0:38:47- I'm happy with that. - By the same token, there could be a long-eared bat.
0:38:47 > 0:38:48A long-eared one.
0:38:48 > 0:38:52There's quite often tufted wildlife, so there could be a tufted bat.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54These are all good. These are all good.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57I know a fruit bat is a bat, at least.
0:38:57 > 0:39:01It's likely to not be pointless, though, isn't it? I've heard of it.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04No, I don't think it's pointless.
0:39:04 > 0:39:08Tufted bat. We could just think what bats might be called.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11Furry bat. Erm...
0:39:11 > 0:39:13- I don't know...- Smooth bat.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15- Erm...- Erm...
0:39:17 > 0:39:21- So fruit bat we know is right... - Shall we go long-eared?
0:39:21 > 0:39:22We might as well go long-eared.
0:39:22 > 0:39:26If there's a short-eared, maybe there's a long-eared.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28Shall we do the ears and fruit, then?
0:39:28 > 0:39:32- What, both ears?- We might as well. We don't know any different.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34- We'll do that.- Five seconds left. - We'll do that.- OK.
0:39:34 > 0:39:39- OK, we have our bats?- Yes. - We're going all the ears and fruits.
0:39:39 > 0:39:40- All the ears and fruits.- OK.
0:39:40 > 0:39:44We're looking for British bats. I now need your three answers.
0:39:44 > 0:39:48- Fruit bat.- Fruit bat. - Short-eared bat.- Short-eared bat.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51- And long-eared bat. - OK, of those three,
0:39:51 > 0:39:54which is your best punt at a pointless answer,
0:39:54 > 0:39:56a correct pointless answer?
0:39:56 > 0:40:00- Short-eared?- Let's go short-eared as the best one.
0:40:00 > 0:40:05- Which is your least likely? - I'm not...- Long-eared, we don't even know if it exists.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08- Fruit, long-eared, short-eared. - Yeah.- That's fine.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11That's the order. OK. Let's put them on the board like that.
0:40:16 > 0:40:19OK, we were looking for British bats.
0:40:19 > 0:40:21You said this was your least confident answer.
0:40:21 > 0:40:25You only need one of these answers to be pointless to win that £3,000.
0:40:25 > 0:40:30Let's see if your fruit bat is a correct answer
0:40:30 > 0:40:33and if it is, let's see how many people said it. Fruit bat.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39- That's the one we thought was right. - Bad luck.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42Unfortunately, fruit bat is not a correct answer.
0:40:42 > 0:40:47It's not a British bat. You only have two more bats.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50£3,000. If one of those wins you the money,
0:40:50 > 0:40:52what would you spend £3,000 on?
0:40:53 > 0:40:56Erm, I'd quite like to go on holiday.
0:40:56 > 0:41:00- Everyone says they'd go on holiday but we probably would.- Very good.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04Best of luck. Let's hope your next answer, long-eared bat, is pointless
0:41:04 > 0:41:06for you to win that jackpot.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09It has to be correct and has to go all the way down to zero.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11Is it a correct answer? Is it a British bat?
0:41:18 > 0:41:22- Bad luck. Bad luck.- Not too much of a shock.- Long-eared bat.
0:41:22 > 0:41:25Mind you, a long-eared bat, it's just going to get in the way.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28- It might get in the way of the sonar.- Yeah.
0:41:28 > 0:41:31- But short-eared is entirely possible.- Maybe.
0:41:31 > 0:41:34OK, you only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37Short-eared bat, at the bottom of your list.
0:41:37 > 0:41:43Let's see if that's right and let's see how many people said it.
0:41:43 > 0:41:47This was the answer you had the most faith in to be a pointless answer.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50Let's see if your faith was well placed.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Short-eared bat.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01- Bad luck! - APPLAUSE
0:42:03 > 0:42:05- Well, there should be one.- Yes!
0:42:07 > 0:42:12Bad luck. Unfortunately, you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer,
0:42:12 > 0:42:15so you don't win today's jackpot of £3,000, which now rolls over.
0:42:15 > 0:42:21You have been fantastic contestants and you do get to take home our Pointless trophy. Well done.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:42:25 > 0:42:28- So, Richard? - Yeah, unlucky, Steve and Karen.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31You weren't so far away when you said long-eared bat.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34- There's a brown long-eared bat... - Oh, no!
0:42:34 > 0:42:36- ..which would have scored you two points.- Oh.
0:42:36 > 0:42:40- But there's a grey long-eared bat... - Oh!- ..which was a pointless answer
0:42:40 > 0:42:42and would have won you £3,000.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45Let's take a look at all the pointless answers up here.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48Daubenton's bat, that's a water bat
0:42:48 > 0:42:51which takes insects off the surface of the water.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54Greater horseshoe bat. There's the grey long-eared bat.
0:42:54 > 0:42:57Leisler's bat, the lesser horseshoe bat
0:42:57 > 0:42:59and Nathusius' pipistrelle, of course.
0:42:59 > 0:43:04The Natterer's bat, the noctule and the soprano pipistrelle.
0:43:04 > 0:43:08Those were pointless. Well done if you got any at home.
0:43:08 > 0:43:11Well, very bad luck. We do have to say goodbye to you, Steve and Karen,
0:43:11 > 0:43:14- but thank you so much for playing. - Thank you.- Thank you.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16APPLAUSE
0:43:17 > 0:43:21Nobody's won our jackpot today, which means it rolls over onto the next show
0:43:21 > 0:43:24when we will be playing for £4,000.
0:43:24 > 0:43:25WHOOPING
0:43:27 > 0:43:29Join us next time to see if someone can win it.
0:43:29 > 0:43:32- It's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And goodbye from me. Goodbye.
