CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:00:200:00:22

Hello. I'm Alexander Armstrong, and a warm welcome to Pointless,

0:00:250:00:29

the quiz show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners. Let's meet today's players

0:00:290:00:36

Liz and Jane, you're our first pair on the show this afternoon. How do you two know each other?

0:00:360:00:42

We are sisters. Jane's the eldest. I'm the youngest. There are two more in between.

0:00:420:00:49

-Four sisters?

-Yes.

-Wow. That's a formidable team!

0:00:490:00:52

-It is.

-Where are you from?

-Devon.

0:00:520:00:56

Jane, what are you hoping comes up?

0:00:560:00:58

I would love something to do with literature.

0:00:580:01:02

-I like reading and I've taught it as well.

-You've taught it?

-Yes.

0:01:020:01:06

-So, literature, then.

-Yes.

-I think you're going to do well. Best of luck the pair of you.

0:01:060:01:12

Welcome back Sureeni and Olivia. You were on last time. Everyone gets two cracks at the final.

0:01:120:01:18

-Remind us how you did last time.

-We crashed and burned, I'm afraid, in the first round.

0:01:180:01:24

-What was it?

-Sport.

-Oh, the Commonwealth Games.

-Yeah.

0:01:240:01:29

-Olivia, what do you do in your spare time?

-Last year I did the London to Brighton Mini run in my vintage car.

0:01:290:01:36

-A vintage Mini?

-Yeah.

-Still going strong?

-Yeah. I love it.

0:01:360:01:40

-How about you, Sureeni?

-I sing in a couple of choirs.

0:01:400:01:44

-Not just one choir! Two choirs!

-Yes.

-Different choirs?

-Completely.

0:01:440:01:48

-One is more church music and the other one more pop.

-Very exciting. Very best of luck to you.

0:01:480:01:55

Next, we welcome Bob and Bill. How do you know each other?

0:01:550:01:59

We met when we were two. We were playing in our red cars in the street.

0:01:590:02:04

We bumped into each other and been friends ever since.

0:02:040:02:08

-Exchanged details!

-That's right.

0:02:080:02:10

Bob, what's your area of expertise?

0:02:100:02:14

I'm a chartered architectural technologist. I draw building plans.

0:02:140:02:19

That's posh for Bob the builder.

0:02:190:02:21

-That's right.

-Bob the architectural technologist.

0:02:210:02:25

-That just doesn't work.

-No.

0:02:250:02:27

Very best of luck the pair of you. Finally, Dan and Danny.

0:02:270:02:31

-How do you know each other?

-We went to the same university and Danny slept on our floor for four months.

0:02:310:02:38

-And you're still friends.

-I know. Can't get rid of him!

0:02:380:02:43

-Where were you at university?

-Hull.

0:02:430:02:46

-Danny, what did you do at Hull?

-I did sport science.

-Catching(!)

0:02:460:02:51

Catching! A bit of throwing, bit of catching!

0:02:510:02:55

-Dan, how about you?

-I did British politics.

0:02:550:02:59

-LAUGHTER

-All right, Danny. All right.

0:02:590:03:02

Let's just see whose degree does them better on the show. The very best of luck to you.

0:03:020:03:08

There's one person left for me to introduce.

0:03:080:03:11

It's rumoured he has a little black book of his favourite obscure facts.

0:03:110:03:16

-I don't believe that! He's my Pointless friend, Richard.

-Hiya.

0:03:160:03:21

APPLAUSE AND WHISTLES

0:03:210:03:24

-Good afternoon to you.

-The best of afternoons to you, sir.

0:03:260:03:30

-How are you?

-I'm very well.

-Should be a good show.

0:03:300:03:33

We've only got one returning pair. Sureeni and Olivia got knocked out in the first round.

0:03:330:03:40

There's no sport, no literature,

0:03:400:03:43

but we have chartered architectural technology in round two!

0:03:430:03:47

LAUGHTER

0:03:470:03:49

Well, thanks, Richard. We put all our questions to 100 people.

0:03:490:03:53

We are after the obscure answers.

0:03:530:03:56

Everyone's trying to find a pointless answer, an answer none of our 100 people gave.

0:03:560:04:02

Each time, we will add £250 to the jackpot.

0:04:020:04:05

Nobody won the jackpot last time so we add £1,000.

0:04:050:04:08

Today's jackpot starts at...

0:04:080:04:12

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:04:120:04:14

Right, let's play Pointless.

0:04:140:04:18

In the first round, each of you gives me one answer and you cannot confer with your partner.

0:04:240:04:29

Whichever team has the highest score will be eliminated.

0:04:290:04:33

An incorrect answer will score the maximum of 100 points.

0:04:330:04:37

Our first category is...

0:04:370:04:41

Can you decide who's going to go first and second?

0:04:410:04:45

Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:04:450:04:48

We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:04:500:04:55

as many U2 singles as they could.

0:04:550:04:59

U2 singles. Jane and Liz just couldn't be happier(!)

0:04:590:05:04

-Richard.

-Everybody looks delighted(!)

0:05:040:05:07

Any single released by U2 or which features them as co-artist to reach the UK Top 40

0:05:070:05:14

up to the start of 2011.

0:05:140:05:16

-There are 40 answers on the list.

-OK, thanks, Richard.

0:05:160:05:21

Liz and Jane, you drew lots, and you get to go first.

0:05:210:05:25

-You lucky things, Jane(!)

-LAUGHTER

0:05:250:05:27

-Does this mean anything to you?

-No. I get my U2s and UB40s muddled up!

0:05:270:05:32

I wouldn't know, really, if I've got the right one.

0:05:320:05:36

-But I've got one in mind.

-OK. Very good.

0:05:360:05:39

-Red Red Wine?

-Red Red Wine. I see what you've done there!

0:05:390:05:43

LAUGHTER

0:05:430:05:45

Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said Red Red Wine.

0:05:450:05:51

You're hoping to score as few points as possible. Let's hope it's correct. Red Red Wine.

0:05:510:05:57

-Bad luck!

-I knew it!

0:05:590:06:02

I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer and you score the maximum.

0:06:020:06:08

-Richard, am I correct in thinking a U2 was a rocket?

-It was a spy plane.

0:06:080:06:12

-A spy plane. Yeah, that's right.

-That's very unlucky, Jane.

0:06:120:06:16

-At least you know why you got it wrong.

-Yes!

-You got U2 and UB40 mixed up.

0:06:160:06:22

Turning up to the DSS with a spy plane!

0:06:220:06:25

Now, then, Olivia. Remember, we are looking for U2 singles.

0:06:250:06:30

Hello Hello. I can hear it in my head going round. I'm not sure if that's what it's called.

0:06:300:06:36

Hello Hello. Let's see if that is a correct answer and, if it is, how many people said it.

0:06:360:06:41

Bad luck.

0:06:450:06:47

That also is an incorrect answer and you score the maximum of 100 points.

0:06:470:06:53

-Richard.

-Sorry, Olivia. I'll explain why that's incorrect at the end.

0:06:530:06:57

At least you've made Jane very happy.

0:06:570:07:00

We've never had four 100s in a row before.

0:07:000:07:03

Not till now!

0:07:030:07:06

-Come on, Bob!

-I've got some U2 albums and I can't think of a single!

0:07:060:07:13

Bob the technical architect, come on!

0:07:130:07:15

I really can't... Goodbye.

0:07:150:07:17

-Goodbye?

-Yes. As opposed to Hello Hello.

0:07:180:07:23

Can we fix it, Bob?

0:07:230:07:26

Yes, we can.

0:07:260:07:27

Listen, Bono. If you're watching...!

0:07:270:07:31

LAUGHTER

0:07:310:07:33

Let's see if it's a correct answer and how many people said Goodbye.

0:07:340:07:39

-Yup!

-LAUGHTER

0:07:430:07:46

That is an incorrect answer.

0:07:460:07:48

You also score the maximum of 100 points.

0:07:480:07:52

It really is going very well indeed.

0:07:520:07:54

I know all U2 watch the show, they watch it together.

0:07:540:07:59

The Edge will be in front of the TV, "Guys, come here. They're doing us!

0:07:590:08:03

"Let's find out which of our songs is most popular."

0:08:030:08:07

Now they'll be sitting there, the champagne going slightly flat,

0:08:070:08:11

going, "Why don't we release singles called Goodbye, Hello Hello and Red Red Wine?"

0:08:110:08:17

Bob, you just made the Edge cry.

0:08:170:08:20

-LAUGHTER

-Now, then. Dan.

0:08:200:08:23

What's the most obscure U2...?

0:08:230:08:26

Do you know what? Just name a U2 single!

0:08:260:08:30

-A U2 single.

-U2 are my mum's favourite band. I feel I should know this.

0:08:300:08:37

There's one I think I know but it might be the name of an album.

0:08:370:08:41

I'm considering going for a safe one after the display we've had. No offence, guys!

0:08:410:08:46

Um... I'll risk it.

0:08:460:08:49

Joshua Tree?

0:08:490:08:51

-Joshua Tree.

-I've just seen his face. It looks bad.

0:08:510:08:54

Welcome to Pointless history.

0:08:560:08:59

LAUGHTER

0:08:590:09:01

Will your mum be watching, Dan?

0:09:010:09:04

Probably, yeah.

0:09:040:09:06

Let's see if The Joshua Tree is a correct answer and how many people said it. Good luck.

0:09:060:09:12

LAUGHTER AND GROANS It is an album, though.

0:09:140:09:18

-Isn't it?

-I don't...believe it.

0:09:180:09:21

Did you all just have an agreement before the show started?

0:09:210:09:25

"Do you know what? Shall we all just get maximum scores?"

0:09:250:09:30

There you are. You scored the maximum of 100 points.

0:09:300:09:33

-Look at that! Richard.

-Yeah.

0:09:330:09:36

Everyone's got the wrong answer for slightly different reasons.

0:09:360:09:41

The Joshua Tree is a U2 album.

0:09:410:09:43

Let's refocus. None of us will ever speak of that again.

0:09:430:09:47

OK, get a series of pointless answers and cheer U2 up.

0:09:470:09:51

We're halfway through the round. Let's look at those scores.

0:09:520:09:56

LAUGHTER

0:09:560:09:58

You are all on 100 points!

0:09:590:10:02

One of you is leaving us at the end of this round. You have only yourselves to blame.

0:10:040:10:09

We're going to come back down the line. Can the second players please take their places on the podiums?

0:10:090:10:16

OK, we are looking for singles by a band called U2.

0:10:170:10:21

Right, I think I've just about remembered one.

0:10:210:10:25

Linked in with football. I think it was a theme tune to a highlights programme. Beautiful Day.

0:10:250:10:31

Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said Beautiful Day.

0:10:310:10:36

Well done, Danny.

0:10:380:10:40

Very well done.

0:10:440:10:46

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:10:460:10:48

That scores you 19.

0:10:480:10:51

It takes your total up to 119.

0:10:510:10:54

-Excellent.

-A single released by U2!

0:10:540:10:57

I was beginning to think they hadn't released any.

0:10:570:11:01

Beautiful Day they used as a theme to The Premiership on ITV.

0:11:010:11:05

-Phew.

-Bill.

0:11:070:11:09

We have a high scorer now.

0:11:090:11:13

Danny and Dan on 119. If you score 18 points or less,

0:11:130:11:16

you will be through, for sure, to the next round.

0:11:160:11:21

Bill, I bet you know some U2 songs.

0:11:210:11:23

One I definitely know is a U2 single.

0:11:230:11:26

Probably one of the first ones they ever did.

0:11:260:11:29

-Er... In The Name Of Love.

-Here's your red line coming in.

0:11:290:11:33

Let's see if In The Name Of Love gets you below that red line.

0:11:340:11:38

Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.

0:11:380:11:41

It's correct.

0:11:440:11:45

Well done, Bill. Brilliant answer!

0:11:490:11:51

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:11:510:11:55

That's a bit more like it. It scores you three points.

0:11:550:11:58

It takes your total to 103.

0:11:580:12:00

It's Pride (In The Name Of Love). Very good answer. Well done.

0:12:000:12:04

We are looking for U2 Top 40 singles, Sureeni.

0:12:040:12:08

You are on 100 points. Our high scorers are Danny and Dan on 119.

0:12:080:12:13

I think, seeing as Olivia started with... I'm going with Vertigo.

0:12:130:12:17

-I think she was thinking of that song.

-Vertigo?

-Yeah.

0:12:170:12:21

Let's see if Vertigo's right and how many people said Vertigo.

0:12:210:12:25

Well done, Sureeni.

0:12:270:12:29

Very well done, indeed.

0:12:330:12:35

APPLAUSE

0:12:350:12:38

That scores you six and takes you up to 106.

0:12:380:12:41

-Richard.

-Well played, Sureeni. It's like old-school Pointless.

0:12:410:12:46

When people got right answers. A Number One from 2004.

0:12:460:12:51

-I think that's what Olivia was thinking of. The chorus starts "Hello, hello."

-Now, then, Liz.

0:12:510:12:58

This is the moment of truth, where Danny and Dan, Liz and Jane

0:12:580:13:03

tussle to see who will be leaving us at the end of this round.

0:13:030:13:07

-I've got one in my head. With Or Without You is what I'm saying.

-With Or Without You.

0:13:070:13:13

I'm so glad you didn't say, "I always get confused between U2 and the Goombay Dance Band!"

0:13:130:13:22

LAUGHTER

0:13:220:13:24

We're looking for U2 singles. You are saying With Or Without You.

0:13:240:13:29

You have to score 18 or less.

0:13:290:13:31

There's your red line. Below that, through to the next round.

0:13:310:13:35

Good luck, Liz.

0:13:350:13:37

It's right.

0:13:400:13:42

Oh, my goodness!

0:13:450:13:47

Very, very well done.

0:13:470:13:50

You had to score 18 points.

0:13:500:13:52

You did score 18 points. Very well done, Liz. That takes you to 118.

0:13:520:13:58

-Richard.

-Very well played, Liz, and everybody on that second pass.

0:13:580:14:02

Insult to injury to Dan and Danny, it's from The Joshua Tree album.

0:14:020:14:07

There were lots of pointless answers here. Let's look at some of them.

0:14:070:14:12

Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me was a Number Two.

0:14:130:14:17

As was City Of Blinding Lights. Discotheque was Number One.

0:14:170:14:22

Three more Top Ten hits here...

0:14:230:14:25

..Fire was their first single.

0:14:300:14:32

It's the only pointless answer not to be a Top Ten hit!

0:14:320:14:37

Judging by the standards here, very well done it you named ANY U2 single.

0:14:370:14:43

So, at the end of Round One, the losing pair with the highest score is Dan and Danny. The Dans.

0:14:430:14:50

So, listen, your short time on Pointless, first time round.

0:14:500:14:55

You'll be back. You'll be back. What has it taught you?

0:14:550:14:59

-Don't bring him with me next time.

-LAUGHTER

0:14:590:15:03

Listen, we will get all your sport and politics next time round.

0:15:030:15:09

We say goodbye now, but thanks so much for playing.

0:15:090:15:12

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:15:120:15:14

For the remaining pairs, it's time for Round Two.

0:15:160:15:19

Only two pairs can make it through to the head-to-head.

0:15:250:15:28

One of the three teams will leave us at the end of this round.

0:15:280:15:32

OK, our category for Round Two is...

0:15:320:15:35

Can you decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second?

0:15:380:15:43

Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:15:430:15:47

Our Round Two question this afternoon concerns...

0:15:500:15:53

We're about to show you a list of quotes said by or commonly attributed to famous people.

0:15:560:16:04

-We asked 100 people to tell us who said them. Richard.

-Six quotes on each pass.

0:16:040:16:09

The more obscure the quote, the fewer points you'll score.

0:16:090:16:12

If you give us an incorrect answer, you'll score 100 points.

0:16:120:16:16

I almost never give clues, but after the first round I'll say one thing.

0:16:160:16:21

-None of them were said by Bono.

-LAUGHTER

0:16:210:16:24

So we are looking for the people who most famously said these quotes.

0:16:240:16:29

Here we go...

0:16:290:16:31

..I'll read them one more time...

0:16:470:16:49

..Liz, there are the quotes.

0:16:550:16:58

Let's find a nice obscure one and attribute it to somebody correct.

0:16:580:17:03

I think "Ich bin ein Berliner" was said by JF Kennedy.

0:17:030:17:08

JF Kennedy, "Ich bin ein Berliner", let's see if that's right.

0:17:080:17:11

And if it is, how many people knew that answer, JF Kennedy.

0:17:110:17:15

Yes, of course.

0:17:180:17:20

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:17:240:17:27

Scores you 33. Richard.

0:17:270:17:31

He said it to West Berliners after the Berlin Wall went up.

0:17:310:17:35

It's quite a low score, but some of that's explained by the fact that 17 thought Hitler said it.

0:17:350:17:42

Now then, Olivia. How comfortable are you with that selection?

0:17:430:17:48

Fairly confident, but I'm beginning to doubt myself.

0:17:510:17:54

What's going on there?

0:17:540:17:56

I'm going for, "I have nothing to declare except my genius".

0:17:560:18:01

-Which I think was Oscar Wilde.

-Oscar Wilde.

0:18:010:18:05

Let's see if it's right and how many people knew that answer.

0:18:050:18:09

Well done.

0:18:110:18:13

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:18:190:18:22

Very well done. 22 for that.

0:18:220:18:26

-Richard.

-Reportedly said by him in 1882 at New York customs control.

0:18:280:18:34

But no evidence that he did ever say it.

0:18:340:18:37

There we are.

0:18:370:18:39

Here are the quotes. You just have to supply me with the author.

0:18:390:18:44

-Bill.

-Right, I think I know three of them.

0:18:440:18:47

-Which are they?

-"I have a dream" - Martin Luther King.

0:18:470:18:51

"The lady's not for turning" - Margaret Thatcher.

0:18:510:18:55

"The eagle has landed" - Neil Armstrong.

0:18:550:18:57

"I live and die by my serve", I imagine is a tennis player.

0:18:570:19:01

I can't think who. I think I'll go for Neil Armstrong.

0:19:010:19:05

-Neil Armstrong and...?

-"The eagle has landed."

0:19:050:19:09

Neil Armstrong and "The eagle has landed".

0:19:090:19:12

Let's see if that's right and, if it is, what it scores you.

0:19:120:19:15

It's right.

0:19:170:19:19

Best score so far!

0:19:220:19:24

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:19:240:19:27

Very well done.

0:19:270:19:30

I suspect it's a low score because he's more famous for saying,

0:19:340:19:38

"One small step for man. One giant step for mankind."

0:19:380:19:42

Maybe people forgot "The eagle has landed."

0:19:420:19:44

You're quite right to choose that one...

0:19:440:19:48

Any clues on "I live and die by my serve"?

0:19:540:19:57

Yes. That was Bill Gates. It was one of their early dial-up sets.

0:19:570:20:01

My Serve. And he said, "I live and die by My Serve."

0:20:010:20:05

LAUGHTER

0:20:050:20:07

No. It's actually Larry Mullen, the drummer from U2.

0:20:070:20:12

-Was it Pete Sampras?

-It is Pete Sampras, yes.

0:20:120:20:16

Very well done if you got that at home.

0:20:160:20:19

We're halfway through the round. Let's look at the scores.

0:20:190:20:23

That last answer from Bill and Bob, 19.

0:20:230:20:26

Lovely low score.

0:20:260:20:29

Olivia and Sureeni looking very good on 22.

0:20:290:20:33

Jane, you have to find a really nice low-scoring answer to get through.

0:20:330:20:38

We're going to come back down the line. Can the second players please take their places on the podium?

0:20:380:20:44

We're going to put six more quotes up on the board. Here they are...

0:20:440:20:49

..Let me say those again...

0:21:060:21:07

..We are looking for the people who famously said these quotes.

0:21:180:21:23

Bob, you're the low-scorers. The high-scorers are Jane and Liz.

0:21:230:21:27

To be absolutely sure of going through the head-to-head, you want to score 13 or less.

0:21:270:21:34

OK, um...

0:21:340:21:36

I do know, think I know, a few of those.

0:21:360:21:40

Finding the most obscure is difficult.

0:21:400:21:43

I'll go for "I have the heart and stomach of a King."

0:21:430:21:46

Which was Elizabeth I.

0:21:460:21:49

"The heart and stomach of a King" - Elizabeth I.

0:21:490:21:54

If you get below that red line with Elizabeth I,

0:21:540:21:57

you are through to the head-to-head.

0:21:570:21:59

Let's see if she did say that and, if she did, how many people said it.

0:21:590:22:03

18! Very good score! That takes your total up to 37.

0:22:130:22:18

APPLAUSE

0:22:180:22:21

Said in an address to troops at Tilbury

0:22:210:22:24

in 1588, when a Spanish invasion was imminent.

0:22:240:22:28

-Sureeni.

-Yes.

-The high-scorers are now Bob and Bill on 37.

0:22:280:22:33

You are on 22.

0:22:330:22:35

If you can score 14 or less, you are through to the head-to-head.

0:22:350:22:40

I'm going to go for "We're more popular than Jesus now."

0:22:400:22:44

John Lennon.

0:22:440:22:46

Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people knew that quote.

0:22:460:22:50

Quite a well-known one. Takes your total to 55.

0:22:580:23:02

Richard.

0:23:020:23:04

It's a correct answer, Sureeni, and keeps the pressure on Jane.

0:23:050:23:10

"We are more popular than Jesus now" is something that Bono was saying,

0:23:100:23:16

but he may have to reconsider.

0:23:160:23:18

Thanks very much, Richard.

0:23:180:23:20

Now then, Jane. The high-scorers are Sureeni and Olivia on 55.

0:23:200:23:25

You have to score 21 or less with this answer.

0:23:250:23:30

I think I know all of those.

0:23:300:23:32

"They think it's all over. It is now" is Kenneth Wolstenholme.

0:23:320:23:37

"We shall fight on the beaches" is obviously Churchill.

0:23:370:23:41

"Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee" was Muhammad Ali.

0:23:410:23:44

"Any colour, so long as it's black" was Henry Ford.

0:23:440:23:48

I'll go for Henry Ford, "Any colour, so long as it's black."

0:23:480:23:51

You have to score 21 or less. Here's your red line.

0:23:510:23:56

If Henry Ford can get you below that red line

0:23:570:24:00

you are through to the head-to-head, good luck.

0:24:000:24:03

Let's see if it's right and how many people said Henry Ford.

0:24:030:24:07

It's right.

0:24:100:24:12

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:24:170:24:19

Surprisingly high score there. 34.

0:24:190:24:23

That takes your score up to 67. Richard.

0:24:230:24:26

Unlucky, Jane. You got every single one right.

0:24:260:24:29

-One of those answers would have kept you in the round.

-Which one?

0:24:290:24:34

"They think it's all over. It is now." Ironically.

0:24:340:24:38

-It is now, isn't it?

-It was Kenneth Wolstenholme.

0:24:380:24:44

The other two were big scorers, though...

0:24:440:24:47

Thanks very much, Richard.

0:25:010:25:03

At the end of Round Two, the losing pair with the highest score,

0:25:030:25:07

it's Liz and Jane.

0:25:070:25:09

-That makes it a bit harder, knowing Kenneth Wolstenholme.

-Well...

0:25:090:25:13

-It does really, if I'm honest!

-It's a very well-known quote.

0:25:130:25:19

I'm old enough. I watched the World Cup Final on television and I remember him saying it.

0:25:190:25:25

We will see you next time. We'll look forward to that.

0:25:250:25:29

Thank you, meanwhile, for playing.

0:25:290:25:32

For the remaining pairs, things get even more exciting in the head-to-head.

0:25:320:25:37

Bob and Bill, Sureeni and Olivia, you've made it to the head-to-head.

0:25:430:25:48

Only one player can play for the jackpot

0:25:480:25:51

which currently stands at...

0:25:510:25:54

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:25:560:26:00

You go head-to-head on the best of three questions.

0:26:000:26:03

Each pair gives just one answer, and you are allowed to confer.

0:26:030:26:07

Score less than the other pair and you will win that question.

0:26:070:26:12

The pair that gets first to the best of three will play for the jackpot.

0:26:120:26:16

-Let's play Pointless.

-APPLAUSE

0:26:160:26:19

OK, here is your first question.

0:26:220:26:25

We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:26:250:26:28

to name as many...

0:26:280:26:30

..as they could.

0:26:330:26:36

Richard.

0:26:360:26:38

We're looking for any of the nine squares between "Go" and "In Jail" on the standard UK Monopoly board.

0:26:380:26:43

We won't accept "Just Visiting" on the "In Jail" square.

0:26:430:26:46

Any of the nine squares between "Go" and "In Jail".

0:26:460:26:49

Thanks, Richard. Bob and Bill, because you've played best so far,

0:26:490:26:54

you get to go first.

0:26:540:26:56

The nine Monopoly squares between "Go" and "In Jail".

0:26:560:27:01

-LOW VOICES

-Old Kent Road...

-Whitechapel.

0:27:010:27:07

Whitechapel.

0:27:080:27:11

-Whitechapel?

-Yeah.

-Sureeni and Olivia.

0:27:110:27:15

We think Old Kent Road is the first one.

0:27:150:27:18

We're not sure of the second dark brown.

0:27:180:27:21

There are three light blue ones.

0:27:210:27:23

-What about the station?

-King's Cross?

-I thought Charing Cross.

0:27:230:27:28

I always get those two mixed up with Harry Potter.

0:27:280:27:32

What do you think? Angel Islington?

0:27:320:27:35

-The Angel Islington.

-Shall we go for that?

-Yeah.

0:27:350:27:38

-We're going for Angel... Angel OF Islington?

-Angel Islington.

0:27:380:27:42

-Angel Islington.

-The Angel Islington. OK.

0:27:420:27:46

So, we have Whitechapel and we have the Angel Islington.

0:27:460:27:50

Bob and Bill, Whitechapel. Let's see if it's correct and how many people said Whitechapel.

0:27:500:27:56

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:28:050:28:07

Sureeni and Olivia have gone for the Angel Islington.

0:28:120:28:16

Let's see if it's right and how many people said the Angel Islington.

0:28:160:28:20

-CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

-Very, very well done.

0:28:300:28:35

The Angel Islington scores you just nine.

0:28:350:28:38

-It's one-nil to Sureeni and Olivia. Richard.

-Two good answers.

0:28:380:28:42

Whitechapel, we accepted. It's Whitechapel Road.

0:28:420:28:46

The Angel Islington is where the people from Waddington's sat down

0:28:460:28:50

to work out what locations to use.

0:28:500:28:52

There's a couple of low scorers here...

0:28:520:28:55

..King's Cross station, not Charing Cross...

0:28:580:29:01

..The other one you were thinking of, Old Kent Road, 42.

0:29:120:29:16

Here is your second question. Bob and Bill, you have to win this question to stay in the game.

0:29:160:29:23

Sureeni and Olivia, if you win this, you are straight through to play for that £2,250 jackpot.

0:29:230:29:30

Here is your second question.

0:29:300:29:32

We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:29:320:29:34

to name as many...

0:29:340:29:36

..as they could. Richard.

0:29:390:29:41

Any of the seven people who've been the presenter of the Film programme from Film '71 to Film 2011.

0:29:410:29:50

We won't accept stand-ins for individual episodes,

0:29:500:29:53

but seven hosts from '71 all the way through to 2011.

0:29:530:29:57

OK, Sureeni and Olivia, you go first on this one.

0:29:570:30:01

CONFER IN WHISPERS

0:30:010:30:04

-Go on!

-We're going to go for Claudia Winkleman.

-Claudia Winkleman?

-Yeah.

0:30:070:30:13

OK, Bob and Bill, Claudia Winkleman is off the table.

0:30:130:30:18

We know a couple of them.

0:30:180:30:20

-We're going to go for Barry Norman.

-You're going for Barry Norman?

-Yeah.

0:30:200:30:25

Claudia Winkleman from Sureeni and Olivia.

0:30:250:30:28

Barry Norman from Bob and Bill.

0:30:280:30:30

Claudia Winkleman, let's see if that's right and how many people said that.

0:30:300:30:35

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:30:440:30:46

26.

0:30:460:30:48

Now, Bob and Bill.

0:30:510:30:53

You've gone for Barry Norman. Let's see if that's right and how many people knew Barry Norman.

0:30:530:30:59

Oh, well done, Bob and Bill!

0:31:070:31:10

-CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

-That was what you needed.

0:31:100:31:12

Barry Norman beats it, 24 to 26.

0:31:120:31:16

After two questions, you are absolutely like as you lie, Richard.

0:31:160:31:21

It's been very close on both questions.

0:31:210:31:24

There's three obvious ones, but four slightly less obvious.

0:31:240:31:27

There's three pointless answers as well, from the early days.

0:31:270:31:31

Joan Bakewell presented briefly in '72 and '73.

0:31:310:31:35

Jacky Gillot was the original presenter of Film '71.

0:31:350:31:40

Frederick Raphael, the writer and author, was also pointless.

0:31:400:31:43

Danny Leigh, the Guardian film critic

0:31:430:31:46

who co-hosts with Claudia Winkleman, scored one point. Then Barry Norman.

0:31:460:31:51

He presented for 26 years...

0:31:510:31:53

OK, here is your third question.

0:31:580:32:01

Whoever wins this question will be through to the final

0:32:010:32:04

and playing for that jackpot of £2,250. Good luck.

0:32:040:32:09

Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:32:090:32:13

to name as many...

0:32:130:32:15

..as they could. Children of "Brangelina".

0:32:170:32:21

-Richard.

-We're looking for any of the six children born to or adopted by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

0:32:210:32:28

With the adopted kids, we're looking for the names as they are now,

0:32:280:32:33

as of the start of 2011.

0:32:330:32:35

Thank you very much indeed.

0:32:350:32:37

Bob and Bill, you are going to go first.

0:32:370:32:40

We're not very good at celebrities. THEY WHISPER

0:32:400:32:45

That'll do.

0:32:450:32:47

David. LAUGHTER

0:32:470:32:50

-David Gelina.

-Yeah.

0:32:500:32:52

You're going for David. Sureeni and Olivia.

0:32:520:32:55

I don't know any.

0:32:550:32:58

A-herm!

0:32:580:33:00

I know that... I think she had Maddox or Lennox or both.

0:33:000:33:06

I know that her and Brad Pitt had Shiloh.

0:33:060:33:10

I think there's twins, and I think the girl's called Vivienne.

0:33:100:33:15

Let's go for one you're definitely sure.

0:33:150:33:18

-Shiloh.

-Shiloh.

-Shiloh, you're going to say.

0:33:180:33:21

We have David and we have Shiloh.

0:33:210:33:24

Whoever wins this question is through to the final to play for that jackpot.

0:33:240:33:29

Bob and Bill went with David.

0:33:290:33:31

-THEY LAUGH

-You never know!

0:33:310:33:36

Sometimes you do know.

0:33:370:33:40

LAUGHTER

0:33:400:33:42

Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said David.

0:33:420:33:46

-GROANS

-Who's have thought(?)

0:33:470:33:50

Bad luck, Bob and Bill. Sureeni and Olivia, you have gone for Shiloh.

0:33:500:33:56

All that matters is that it is right and you are through to the final.

0:33:560:34:00

Very well done.

0:34:040:34:06

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:34:120:34:14

11. That's academic. It only had to be right, and it was right.

0:34:140:34:18

Sureeni and Olivia, you are through to the final.

0:34:180:34:21

-Richard.

-Yeah, Madonna had an adopted child, David, of course.

0:34:210:34:26

Just the wrong celebrity, that's all.

0:34:260:34:29

There are the twins at the bottom...

0:34:290:34:32

..Zahara on six...

0:34:330:34:36

Well, the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head is Bob and Bill.

0:34:430:34:47

It was very, very close. Extremely exciting...in the first two questions!

0:34:470:34:54

-Sadly, we went a bit off piste.

-It's a fair cop, guv. They played better than us. Good luck.

0:34:540:35:00

Well, we'll get to see you next time, which we look forward to.

0:35:000:35:04

-Meanwhile, thanks very much.

-CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:35:040:35:08

For Sureeni and Olivia it's time for our Pointless final and the chance to win our jackpot of £2,250.

0:35:090:35:15

Congratulations, Sureeni and Olivia.

0:35:210:35:24

You fought off the competition and won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:240:35:28

You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot which stands at...

0:35:370:35:41

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:35:450:35:48

Now, the rules are very simple.

0:35:480:35:50

Find a Pointless answer, an answer that none of our 100 people can think of.

0:35:500:35:56

We haven't had any pointless answers today. You only have to find one now.

0:35:560:36:00

Firstly, you choose a category from these three options. Here we are...

0:36:000:36:05

..British actresses, opera or fashion.

0:36:100:36:13

You're a design student, so fashion would be on you.

0:36:130:36:17

-Opera, I'd rule out cos I only know the obvious ones.

-I agree.

0:36:170:36:22

-I think British actresses.

-Yeah. I think.

0:36:220:36:25

Yeah. British actresses.

0:36:250:36:27

We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:36:270:36:29

..as they could. Richard.

0:36:340:36:37

Any feature film for which Julie Walters received an acting credit

0:36:370:36:42

or voice credit for animated films.

0:36:420:36:44

We're not looking for short films, TV films or documentaries.

0:36:440:36:48

Any feature film starring Julie Walters.

0:36:480:36:51

There are 30 films on the list, up to the beginning of 2011.

0:36:510:36:55

Thank you. You now have one minute to come up with three answers.

0:36:550:36:59

All you need to win that jackpot of £2,250 is for one of those to be pointless.

0:36:590:37:05

Your 60 seconds start now.

0:37:050:37:09

Billy Elliot, the Harry Potter series.

0:37:090:37:12

-Educating Rita was her first film.

-Yeah.

-She was really good in that.

0:37:120:37:16

-Has she done any voice acting?

-She probably has. She's really recognisable.

0:37:160:37:21

Educating Rita. Which Harry Potter was she in?

0:37:210:37:25

-All of them.

-What's an unusual Harry Potter film?

0:37:250:37:28

Goblet Of Fire? I don't know.

0:37:280:37:31

What's the American one?

0:37:310:37:33

That's the Philosopher's Stone. Yeah.

0:37:330:37:36

Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone.

0:37:360:37:39

We need a third one.

0:37:390:37:41

-Prisoner Of Azcaban. Shall we go for The Goblet Of Fire?

-Yeah. And what? Prisoner Of Azcaban?

0:37:410:37:48

-Then do you want to go for Educating Rita?

-Yeah.

0:37:480:37:51

-She was really... It was an amazing film.

-Can't think of any others.

0:37:510:37:55

-Apart from the really obvious.

-Billy Elliot.

0:37:550:37:59

-That's too obvious.

-Yeah.

0:37:590:38:02

Five seconds left.

0:38:020:38:04

OK, that's your minute up. I now need your three answers.

0:38:070:38:12

We were looking for Julie Walters films.

0:38:120:38:15

We're going to go for the Harry Potter series, The Goblet Of Fire.

0:38:150:38:21

-Goblet Of Fire.

-Educating Rita.

-Educating Rita.

0:38:210:38:24

-What was the third one?

-Another Harry Potter one.

0:38:240:38:27

Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone.

0:38:270:38:30

Of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless?

0:38:300:38:34

-Educating Rita.

-We'll put that last.

0:38:340:38:38

Which of the two Harry Potters shall we put first?

0:38:380:38:41

Um, probably The Goblet Of Fire.

0:38:410:38:45

Goblet Of Fire, Philosopher's Stone, Educating Rita. We'll put them up in that order.

0:38:450:38:51

We have...

0:38:510:38:53

..Two Harry Potter films in your trio.

0:39:010:39:04

We're looking for Julie Walters films.

0:39:040:39:06

This was the answer you had the least faith in.

0:39:060:39:10

You only have to find one pointless answer to win that £2,250 jackpot.

0:39:100:39:15

Let's see if The Goblet Of Fire is right and, if it is,

0:39:150:39:20

how many people said Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire.

0:39:200:39:23

Wow! And there we are! Turns out not to be a correct answer.

0:39:280:39:32

Unfortunately, that's not a pointless answer. Bit of a surprise.

0:39:320:39:37

-Maybe we just don't know who Julie Walters is!

-Maybe she's not in Harry Potter!

0:39:370:39:42

-Sureeni, does anyone?

-LAUGHTER

0:39:420:39:46

Here's your second answer. Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone.

0:39:460:39:50

Now we know that she wasn't in The Goblet Of Fire, how are we feeling?

0:39:500:39:55

She has to be in the first one.

0:39:550:39:58

-They say goodbye when they go to Hogwarts.

-I'm assuming.

0:39:580:40:02

They're quite young in the first one so they'll need a parent!

0:40:020:40:07

Let's hope it's right and, if it is, nobody said it.

0:40:070:40:11

This is your second answer, The Philosopher's Stone.

0:40:110:40:16

This has to be pointless to win the jackpot.

0:40:160:40:19

Let's see how many people said it.

0:40:190:40:22

That's more like it!

0:40:240:40:26

Wow!

0:40:410:40:43

Time to take stock of our position.

0:40:450:40:49

Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone scored only four points.

0:40:490:40:53

Who knows what they know about Educating Rita?

0:40:530:40:57

-£2,250, what would you do with that?

-We want to go to New York.

0:40:570:41:02

-Yeah. We'd spend the money on a holiday.

-Very, very good.

0:41:020:41:07

We only have one more chance to win that jackpot of £2,250.

0:41:070:41:12

Educating Rita, it's riding on that. We're looking for Julie Walters movies.

0:41:120:41:17

This was the answer you had the most faith in. This for that jackpot of £2,250.

0:41:170:41:23

Let's see if Educating Rita is right and, if it is, how many people knew that answer.

0:41:230:41:28

Well, it's right.

0:41:340:41:36

Oh, no!

0:41:420:41:44

Unfortunately, you didn't manage to find that crucial pointless answer.

0:41:520:41:57

You don't win today's jackpot, which rolls over to the next show.

0:41:570:42:01

You have been amazing contestants and you take home our pointless trophy.

0:42:010:42:06

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:42:060:42:08

-So, Richard.

-Very well played throughout.

0:42:090:42:14

Educating Rita was the most popular answer of all followed by Mamma Mia,

0:42:140:42:18

Billy Elliot and Calendar Girls.

0:42:180:42:21

Goblet Of Fire was the only Harry Potter film she wasn't in,

0:42:210:42:25

but they all scored much the same as Philosopher's Stone.

0:42:250:42:28

Let's take a look at the pointless answers. There were a fair few...

0:42:280:42:33

..Dreamchild, she plays a voice of a dormouse...

0:42:340:42:37

..Intimate Relations and Just Like A Woman,

0:42:390:42:42

she plays a landlady in both.

0:42:420:42:44

Mickybo And Me, she's Mickybo's mother.

0:42:440:42:48

Prick Up Your Ears, the Joe Orton biog. She plays HIS mother.

0:42:490:42:53

Stepping Out with Liza Minnelli.

0:42:530:42:55

Titanic Town, she plays a Belfast peace campaigner.

0:42:550:42:59

-Very well done if you said any of those.

-Thanks, Richard.

0:42:590:43:02

Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you Sureeni and Olivia. Thank you so much for playing.

0:43:020:43:08

APPLAUSE

0:43:080:43:11

Nobody's won our jackpot which means it rolls over onto the next show, where we will be playing for...

0:43:130:43:19

AUDIENCE: Oooh!

0:43:210:43:24

Join us to see if someone wins it.

0:43:240:43:26

-It's goodbye from Richard.

-Goodbye.

-And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.

0:43:260:43:30

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
