0:00:20 > 0:00:23CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:00:24 > 0:00:30Thank you very much! Thank you! Well, hello! I'm Alexander Armstrong and a very warm welcome to Pointless
0:00:30 > 0:00:34the quiz show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:39 > 0:00:44First we welcome Tom and Hazel. You are our first pair. How do you two know each other?
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Well, we're mother and son. She's the mum, I'm the son.
0:00:47 > 0:00:51- Oh! Phewy! Thanks, Tom. - And we're from Oxfordshire.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55- From Oxfordshire. What do you do, Hazel?- I'm a hotel housekeeper.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59- Tom, what do you do? - I'm a tattoo artist.- You are.
0:00:59 > 0:01:04- You showed me when I was meeting you before. You've got a white tattoo on your neck.- Yeah, just up there.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08- Do you think the cameras will pick that up?- I doubt it. - Is it rude?- No, no.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12- It's a little white thing just there.- Ohh! Look at that.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16- And that's just ink, is it?- Yes. - What would you love to come up this afternoon?
0:01:16 > 0:01:21Erm, TV, film, that kind of thing. Lord Of The Rings would be especially nice.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Indeed. OK. Hazel, how about you?
0:01:24 > 0:01:30- Films, music.- A bit of overlap! - Yeah, I know.- Oh, dear! Very good.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33It's lovely meeting you. Welcome to the show.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36Next we welcome back Paul and Mark.
0:01:36 > 0:01:40You were on the show last time. Remind us what happened to you.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44- We got to the head-to-head. - What saw you off?
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Roddy Doyle novels. Literature.
0:01:47 > 0:01:52- Dear, oh, dear.- Never heard of him. - Yeah, you had to make some up.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56- Yeah. - Well, what about him? He has to make them up every time he writes one!
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Paul, what would you love to have come up this afternoon?
0:02:00 > 0:02:03- A bit of sport.- Bit of sport. - TV.- TV.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07It's great to have you back. Very best of luck this afternoon.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Next we welcome Taresh and Raj. How do you two know each other?
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Erm, he's my brother. I've known him for a while.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18My mum put me down to sleep on a single bed and I woke up on a bunk bed.
0:02:18 > 0:02:23- I was at the top and this little critter was at the bottom.- You woke up one morning and there he was.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25- The beard obviously came later. - LAUGHTER
0:02:25 > 0:02:29- I found it on the pillow. - That's what it was.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Oh, very good indeed.
0:02:31 > 0:02:37- And where have you come from?- I come from the Vale of Belvoir in between Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire.
0:02:37 > 0:02:42- Excellent. Taresh?- I'm a jobbing actor, so I'm from anywhere, really.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46- Where do you lay your hat? - Yeah, it's back there at the moment, my hat.
0:02:46 > 0:02:52- ALEXANDER LAUGHS - Well, I'm delighted you laid it here for this afternoon, anyway.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56Great to have you on the show. Welcome. I hope you enjoy it and very best of luck.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00Finally we welcome back Mary and Jess. You were on the show last time.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Everyone gets two chances to reach the final. Remind us how you did.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06We got knocked off in the second question.
0:03:06 > 0:03:12- And it was words beginning with Q.- Remind us what you do, Jess. - I'm training to be a doctor.
0:03:12 > 0:03:17- Training to be a doctor. How long have you done? - I've done my fourth year.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- So just 16 years to go. - Yeah, basically! - It takes forever, doesn't it?
0:03:20 > 0:03:24- Mary.- Yes.- What would you love to see come up this afternoon?
0:03:24 > 0:03:28- Musicals.- Musicals.- Maybe history.
0:03:28 > 0:03:32Very best of luck. It's great to have you back. We'll find out more about all of you during the show.
0:03:32 > 0:03:38Only one more person to introduce. In the lift of obscurity, he only ever gets out on the top floor.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42- He is my Pointless friend, he is Richard.- Hiya.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:48 > 0:03:52- How are you?- I'm extremely well.- If I only ever get out on the top floor,
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- how do I get down? - Well, you go down the stairs.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- The stairs of obscurity.- Of course.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- Silly me.- Cos you like to get to the bottom of things.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05- LAUGHTER - Ohh!
0:04:07 > 0:04:10- On you go. - I think that's probably for the best.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14As you say, two returning pairs today, Mary and Jess and Paul and Mark.
0:04:14 > 0:04:19Paul and Mark did very well last time, got to the head-to-head, usually suggests good things.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22So they should do well. It should be a very good show.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26Very good. Thank you. We put all out questions to 100 people before the show
0:04:26 > 0:04:29but we're after the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:04:29 > 0:04:34To stay in the game with a chance to win our jackpot, you need to score as few points as possible.
0:04:34 > 0:04:39What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer that none of our 100 people gave.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42Each time that happens, we'll add £250 to the jackpot.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Patrick and Kim walked off with the jackpot last time,
0:04:45 > 0:04:49so today's jackpot starts off at £1,000.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Right! Let's play Pointless!
0:04:59 > 0:05:05In the first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:05:05 > 0:05:10The team with the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated. An incorrect answer
0:05:10 > 0:05:15will score the maximum of 100 points. Try and avoid those if you can.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Our first category this afternoon is...
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Can you decide who's going first, who's going second?
0:05:23 > 0:05:27And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:05:30 > 0:05:35OK, let's find out what the question is. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:05:35 > 0:05:40to name as many Sean Connery films as they could. Richard.
0:05:40 > 0:05:45We're looking for any feature film made for UK cinema release up to April 2011
0:05:45 > 0:05:49for which Sean Connery received an acting credit. No short films, TV films,
0:05:49 > 0:05:54documentaries or anything where he played himself, but voice performances do count.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58Any Sean Connery film released in the UK. Very best of luck.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01OK, thank you very much. Right, Hazel and Tom,
0:06:01 > 0:06:05you all drew lots before the show and you get to go first.
0:06:05 > 0:06:10Sean Connery films. Hazel, you're looking quietly confident, I'd like to say.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- Medicine Man. - LAUGHTER
0:06:13 > 0:06:17That's a Sean Connery film. Good. Medicine Man, OK.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22Let's see if it's a correct answer, and if it is, how many of our 100 people said Medicine Man.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25It's correct!
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Looking very good. Down it goes.
0:06:29 > 0:06:34- Oh! Very good indeed, Hazel! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Just what the doctor ordered! Medicine Man!
0:06:40 > 0:06:43- Scores you one point. Richard. - Very well played.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47Absolutely no pause at all and a very good answer. From 1992.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49He plays a scientist in the Amazonian jungle.
0:06:49 > 0:06:56We come to you, Paul. What is the most obscure Sean Connery film you can think of?
0:06:56 > 0:07:00I'm going to say one he was in with Nicholas Cage, Alcatraz, called The Rock.
0:07:00 > 0:07:06The Rock. Let's see if The Rock is correct, and if it is, how many of our 100 people said The Rock.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10It's right.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15Ooh, it's another good answer, Paul. 26.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17APPLAUSE
0:07:17 > 0:07:1926 points for The Rock. Richard.
0:07:19 > 0:07:23Yeah, from 1996, The Rock. As you say, The Rock itself was Alcatraz.
0:07:23 > 0:07:29Apparently, Connery had a cabin built there so he could stay. He didn't like the journey back and forth.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33They say that he lived on Alcatraz throughout the filming.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37OK, Raj. What is the most obscure Sean Connery film you can think of?
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Let's go for The Hunt For Red October.
0:07:40 > 0:07:45Let's see if The Hunt For Red October is right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50It's right.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56- Wow, 21! - APPLAUSE
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Not a bad answer. 21 points for The Hunt For Red October.
0:08:01 > 0:08:07Yeah, well played, Raj. From 1990. He plays a Lithuanian submarine boat captain
0:08:07 > 0:08:09with a very broad Scottish accent. LAUGHTER
0:08:09 > 0:08:13I think you once judged a competition for the best ever newspaper headline,
0:08:13 > 0:08:17it was police who were looking for stolen cars, and what was the headline?
0:08:17 > 0:08:22- The Hunt For Red Hot Skoda. - LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
0:08:25 > 0:08:28That was a cracking headline.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Now then, Mary, we come to you.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34- I'm going to go with one of the Bond films.- OK.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37- This isn't my strongest point at all.- Right.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40I'll go for Goldfinger.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44Just one of the lesser-known Bond films, then. OK.
0:08:44 > 0:08:49You're hoping to score as few points as possible. Let's see how many people said Goldfinger.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Still going down! Look at that! 23!
0:08:57 > 0:09:00APPLAUSE
0:09:00 > 0:09:07I eat my words, Mary. 23. There you are. Not the highest score after all. 23 for Goldfinger, Richard.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10I know, Goldfinger scores less than The Rock.
0:09:10 > 0:09:16Obviously, one of his outings as James Bond. Goldfinger is named after the architect Erno Goldfinger.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19He made a lot of houses in London, including ones in Willow Road
0:09:19 > 0:09:24and Ian Fleming used to live opposite them, so apparently, to get his own back,
0:09:24 > 0:09:26cos he didn't like the houses, he called him Goldfinger.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29Yeah? OK, well, we're halfway through the round
0:09:29 > 0:09:36so let's take a look at the scores as they stand. Hazel and Tom, what a fabulous answer. Medicine Man.
0:09:36 > 0:09:41And then quite a hike, we go up to Raj and Taresh on 21.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45Then up to Mary and Jess on 23. Then up to Paul and Mark on 26.
0:09:45 > 0:09:50Mark, it's very close, but you're going to have to find a nice low-scoring answer
0:09:50 > 0:09:55to make sure you stay in the game. Back down the line. Second players, take your places.
0:09:57 > 0:10:02OK, we are looking for Sean Connery films. Jess.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06- Now, this wasn't a great subject for Mary.- And it's not for me.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Oh, no, no, don't say that!
0:10:08 > 0:10:13It's not. Erm, I'm going to have to follow a similar kind of theme,
0:10:13 > 0:10:17and I'm not sure it's right, but I'm going to say Never Say Never Again.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19There is your red line. It's quite low.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Below that, you are through to the next round.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26Never Say Never Again. Let's see how many people said that.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30It's right.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Goldfinger scored 23.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35Surely it'll be lower than that. Yes, it is. Down it goes. Eight!
0:10:35 > 0:10:38- APPLAUSE - That's a great answer, Jess. Very well done.
0:10:38 > 0:10:43That takes your total up to 31. Richard.
0:10:43 > 0:10:49Not a bad answer, Jess. It keeps you in the round. Never Say Never Again was an unofficial Bond film
0:10:49 > 0:10:52so less well-known than other Bond outings.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55- Taresh. You're an actor.- I am.
0:10:55 > 0:11:00I think that somehow qualifies you to pluck out of thin air a pointless Sean Connery film.
0:11:00 > 0:11:05I can think of quite a few, but what's life worth if you're not pointless?
0:11:05 > 0:11:07So I'm going to go for something a little bit obscure
0:11:07 > 0:11:10which I think had Michelle Pf-Pf-Pf-Pfeiffer in it.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14- Russia House?- Russia House!
0:11:14 > 0:11:19Raj is nodding. Very, very good. That could be a superb answer!
0:11:19 > 0:11:22The high-scorers currently are Jess and Mary on 31.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26That means if you can score nine or less with Russia House, you're through!
0:11:26 > 0:11:30Let's wait and see. There's your red line. Get below that, through you go
0:11:30 > 0:11:34to the next round. Is it right? How many people said Russia House?
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Ooh, Taresh, it's right.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40It's a correct answer. I think this will go a long way down.
0:11:42 > 0:11:47- Oh, look at that! Superb! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Very, very, very well done, Taresh! That's a pointless!
0:11:50 > 0:11:57It adds £250 to today's jackpot, taking the total up to £1,250.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:11:59 > 0:12:05It also scores you nothing and leaves your total at 21. You're through to the next round. Richard.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08Brilliantly played, Taresh. Well done. The Russia House from 1990.
0:12:08 > 0:12:15Well done if you got that. Michelle Pfeiffer is in it. Sean Connery plays a British publisher in Moscow.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17- It's based on the John le Carre novel.- Very good.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21Now then, Mark, we are looking for Sean Connery films.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23The high scorers are Mary and Jess on 31.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27You're on 26, which means if you can score four or less,
0:12:27 > 0:12:31- you're through to the next round. - I'm going to go for Entrapment.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- Entrapment.- Yeah.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Very good. Entrapment.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42There's your red line.
0:12:42 > 0:12:46If Entrapment, like Catherine Zeta-Jones under those lasers,
0:12:46 > 0:12:51can get you below that red line... I'm just brilliant at this, aren't I?
0:12:51 > 0:12:53- LAUGHTER - Ohh!
0:12:53 > 0:12:58- Yeah, you're terrific.- Aren't I? - Yeah.- Yeah, if your shapely answer
0:12:58 > 0:13:06can work its way beneath that red line... Entrapment. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:13:07 > 0:13:10It's right!
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Ohh, look at that!
0:13:14 > 0:13:16- Ooh, 15! - APPLAUSE
0:13:16 > 0:13:19It scores you 15, takes your total up to 41.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23It could be good enough. It's all in the hands of Tom. Richard.
0:13:23 > 0:13:28Yeah, another fairly high-scoring one from 1999. So, yeah, game on now.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31Game on, as you say. Good answer. Is it good enough?
0:13:31 > 0:13:37- Well, Tom, you know the answer to that.- I know a few. I'm just trying to think which would be better.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39That fact The Rock scored 26 did worry me.
0:13:39 > 0:13:44Erm, there's three I'm choosing between. The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen,
0:13:44 > 0:13:50Dragonheart and Highlander II. I think I'll go for Dragonheart, cos it's just a voiceover.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Dragonheart, just a voiceover. Raj is nodding.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Raj nods when people are about to get pointless answers.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00There is your red line. Below that red line, you're through to the next round.
0:14:00 > 0:14:05Very best of luck. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Dragonheart.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Well done.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12You're through to the next round. Very well done.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15- Ohh! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:14:15 > 0:14:19Eight points for Dragonheart. Takes your total up to nine.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22- Richard.- Yeah, well played, Tom. Good answer.
0:14:22 > 0:14:27Three good answers. That scored you eight. The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen was nine.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31And Highlander II: The Quickening would've scored one. So three very, very good answers.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Let's look at the pointless answers.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Another Time, Another Place that he filmed with Lana Turner, pointless.
0:14:37 > 0:14:43Finding Forrester, pointless. Just Cause, also pointless, well done if you got that.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45Let's take a look at the next page.
0:14:45 > 0:14:50Rising Sun. Tarzan's Greatest Adventure. Can't have been that great. The Avengers.
0:14:50 > 0:14:55He was in the terrible remake of that film. Let's take a look at the last page.
0:14:55 > 0:15:00The Longest Day, set in the D-Day landings, that was a pointless answer.
0:15:00 > 0:15:05Russia House we've had. And Time Bandits, where he played King Agamemnon and a fireman.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08- Well done if you got any of those. - Thank you, Richard.
0:15:08 > 0:15:15Well, at the end of round one, it turns out the losing pair with the highest score are Mark and Paul.
0:15:15 > 0:15:19Bad luck. This wasn't in the script at all. You were meant to be here much longer.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22We need to get back to work tomorrow.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Well, dear, oh, dear. Whose fault was that?
0:15:25 > 0:15:27- You're going to blame Paul?- Yeah.
0:15:27 > 0:15:32- For The Rock?- Yeah. - I would've thought The Rock would be very low-scoring.
0:15:32 > 0:15:37As, presumably, did you. Well, I'm afraid this is where we say goodbye. This is your second appearance.
0:15:37 > 0:15:41But you've been excellent contestants. Thanks for playing.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:15:43 > 0:15:47For the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:15:53 > 0:15:59There's only room for two pairs in the head-to-head, so one team will leave us at the end of this round.
0:15:59 > 0:16:04You just have to make sure it's not you. Our category for round two this afternoon is...
0:16:06 > 0:16:10Decide who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13And whoever's going first, step up to the podium.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20OK, our round two question this afternoon concerns...
0:16:24 > 0:16:28- Richard. - Yeah, we're going to show you six historical figures on each pass.
0:16:28 > 0:16:33We asked 100 people, "In which modern-day country were each of these figures born?"
0:16:33 > 0:16:38A nice obscure one will score fewer points. An incorrect answer will score 100 points.
0:16:38 > 0:16:44As always, by modern-day country we mean a member of the UN that's a sovereign state in its own right.
0:16:44 > 0:16:49So we're looking for the modern-day countries in which each of these historical figures was born.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51And we have got...
0:17:12 > 0:17:16Right, there they are. Tom, you are first up.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20- What does that list look like to you?- Horrible.- Really?
0:17:20 > 0:17:25Absolutely horrible. I'll have to pick something really obvious cos I really don't know.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28I'm going to go John F Kennedy and say America.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31You're saying John F Kennedy, America. Let's see if it's right,
0:17:31 > 0:17:36and if it is, how many people knew that answer. John F Kennedy, America.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38It's ri...
0:17:38 > 0:17:41- I didn't even get time to say it was right. - LAUGHTER
0:17:41 > 0:17:45It's right! It is right. Tom, it's right.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48- You are seven better than wrong. - LAUGHTER
0:17:48 > 0:17:52- It scored you 93 points.- Yeah.
0:17:52 > 0:17:57Of course, United States of America. Very big score. Seven people out there don't know where he was born.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01Born in 1917 in America, JFK.
0:18:01 > 0:18:07- Ray, it's your turn.- Right.- John F Kennedy and America have gone.
0:18:07 > 0:18:13I could play this tactically seeing as he got such a high score, or I could go for broke.
0:18:13 > 0:18:18Erm... Let's go Ho Chi Minh and go Vietnam.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people knew that answer.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30It's right.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Very well done.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37- 21 for Ho Chi Minh. - APPLAUSE
0:18:38 > 0:18:41That's a great answer.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45At the end of the show, I will demonstrate for you the look Taresh made
0:18:45 > 0:18:48when you said you were going to go for broke. Ho Chi Minh, Richard.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Yeah, well played, Raj. Born in Vietnam.
0:18:51 > 0:18:58Spent a lot of his youth in England and worked in hotels in Ealing and Haymarket.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02Very good answer. We come to you, Jess. You are the last person to have this board
0:19:02 > 0:19:07so please feel free to give us answers to all of those questions
0:19:07 > 0:19:14- including ones you don't choose to answer yourself.- I have no idea where Ferdinand Magellan was born.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18Between the other three, I think Da Vinci was born in Italy,
0:19:18 > 0:19:23Mandela in South Africa, but I'm going to go for Pope John Paul II
0:19:23 > 0:19:25who I think was born in Poland.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Poland you're saying for Pope John Paul II.
0:19:29 > 0:19:33Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people knew that answer, Poland.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Very well done.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42- APPLAUSE - 47.
0:19:44 > 0:19:4847. Surprisingly high number for that.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51Yes, Pope John Paul II in Poland.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54Yeah, well played, Jess. It is quite a high score.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58The first non-Italian pope for 450 years, John Paul II.
0:19:58 > 0:20:03Let's take a look at the rest of the board. Leonardo Da Vinci, Italy.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05would've scored you 78 points.
0:20:05 > 0:20:10- Nelson Mandela.- South Africa.- South Africa. That would've scored 68.
0:20:10 > 0:20:14And the best answer on the board is Ferdinand Magellan.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18- Do you know where he was born? - Portugal?
0:20:18 > 0:20:22- He was born in Portugal. Would've scored 20 points.- There we are.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26Very good. We're halfway through the round so let's take a look at the scores.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29On 21, Raj and Taresh. Fantastic score.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33Then we go up to 47 for Jess and Mary.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36And then Tom and Hazel, I'm afraid, ooh,
0:20:36 > 0:20:39you paid dearly for that JFK answer.
0:20:39 > 0:20:45Hazel, you have a mountain to climb in the next pass, but stranger things have happened.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Back down the line. Second players, take your places.
0:20:50 > 0:20:56OK, we're going to put six more historical figures on the board. And here they are.
0:21:17 > 0:21:23We're looking for the modern-day countries in which each of these historical figures was born.
0:21:23 > 0:21:28You're trying to find the one that fewest of our 100 people knew. Mary, we come to you.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Erm, I'm going to play it really safe
0:21:31 > 0:21:34and go for Joan of Arc
0:21:34 > 0:21:36and France.
0:21:36 > 0:21:40OK. Joan of Arc and France.
0:21:41 > 0:21:46Here is your red line. If Joan of Arc gets you below that red line, you're through to the next round.
0:21:46 > 0:21:51Let's see if Joan of Arc and France is correct, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:21:52 > 0:21:56It's right. Ooh! I thought it was another JFK moment.
0:21:56 > 0:22:01Yes, 83, which takes your total up to 130. Richard.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05Yeah, Joan of Arc. A big score again. She was canonised in 1920.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09One of her many crimes was to suggest that saints spoke French rather than English,
0:22:09 > 0:22:15- which was what they were presumed to have spoken. - I can see why she was put to burn.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17LAUGHTER
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Right, so, Taresh, we come to you. You cannot lose.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23- You cannot lose.- That's good!
0:22:23 > 0:22:27Doesn't matter what you score here, you are through to the next round.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30The high scorers are Mary and Jess on 130. You're only on 21.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34- I'll do my dance now. - LAUGHTER
0:22:34 > 0:22:37It was nothing more or less than I was expecting.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40I've just been told you can lose.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44- LAUGHTER - I'll take it back.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48I know Mahatma Gandhi is connected with India,
0:22:48 > 0:22:52but there's a little voice in the back of my head that says he was born in South Africa.
0:22:52 > 0:22:57- I don't know if I should listen to that voice anymore.- Wouldn't that be brilliant if you got that right?
0:22:57 > 0:23:01That's what I'm going to go for. South Africa, Mahatma Gandhi.
0:23:01 > 0:23:06Like I said, it doesn't matter what you score. So well done. We'll all learn something.
0:23:06 > 0:23:11Mahatma Gandhi, South Africa. Is it right, and if it is, how many people said it?
0:23:12 > 0:23:16Ohh! No, that is an incorrect answer.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19It scores you the maximum of 100 points, takes your total up to 121.
0:23:19 > 0:23:23- It doesn't matter. You're through anyway. Richard. - And we've all learnt something.
0:23:23 > 0:23:28- Yeah.- Specifically, we've learned that Mahatma Gandhi wasn't born in South Africa.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33I hope that's taught everyone at home a lesson. Sitting there thinking he was born in South Africa.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37Quite right. Now, Hazel, we come to you. You are on 93.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40The high scorers are Mary and Jess on 130 points.
0:23:40 > 0:23:45If you can score 36 or less with this answer, you are through to the head-to-head.
0:23:47 > 0:23:51I'm going to go for Haile Selassie, Ethiopia.
0:23:51 > 0:23:56Haile Selassie, Ethiopia you're saying. You're on 93.
0:23:56 > 0:24:01There's your red line. If you get below that red line with Ethiopia, you are through to the head-to-head
0:24:01 > 0:24:04and we'll be saying goodbye to Mary and Jess.
0:24:04 > 0:24:09Let's see if that's right, Ethiopia for Haile Selassie. How many people said it?
0:24:10 > 0:24:12Very well done, Hazel, that's a great answer.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17You are through to the head-to-head. Oh! And just!
0:24:17 > 0:24:21CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:24:23 > 0:24:24Just!
0:24:26 > 0:24:30That scores you 34, takes your total up to 127. Richard.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34Yeah, brilliantly played, Hazel. Very, very well done. She saved you there, Tom.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38- It's nice for a mum to save a son, isn't it?- Very nice indeed.
0:24:38 > 0:24:43Born in Ethiopia in 1892, Haile Selassie. Let's take a look at the rest of the board.
0:24:43 > 0:24:47Mahatma Gandhi, believe it or not, born in India. India. LAUGHTER
0:24:47 > 0:24:53Who knew? I tell you what, they should make a film or something about that guy.
0:24:53 > 0:24:57Bring him to wider attention. Would've scored you 81 points.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01Ivan the Terrible is Russia. Would've scored you 52 points.
0:25:01 > 0:25:06Martin Luther was born in Germany. Well done if you got that. Would've scored you 20 points.
0:25:06 > 0:25:12The best answer on either board is Simon Bolivar, would've scored you two points.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14- Do you know where he was born? - Venezuela?
0:25:14 > 0:25:21Exactly right. Venezuelan rather than Bolivian. Very well done if you got that at home.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24- APPLAUSE - Well, thanks very much, Richard.
0:25:24 > 0:25:30So the losing pair at the end of round two, I'm afraid, your lovely high score there, Mary and Jess,
0:25:30 > 0:25:33130 sees you off.
0:25:33 > 0:25:37- Oh, dear. It was round two last time, as well.- Yeah, it was.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40What is it with round two? Dear, oh, dear. And history.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45- But it was Joan of Arc that did it for you.- It did, yeah.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49- Thanks so much for playing, you've been lovely contestants.- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:25:49 > 0:25:55But for the remaining two pairs, things get even more exciting as we enter the head-to-head.
0:26:02 > 0:26:06Well done, Tom and Hazel, Taresh and Raj, you've made it through to the head-to-head.
0:26:06 > 0:26:13Only one pair can make it through to today's final and play for the jackpot which stand at £1,250.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:26:17 > 0:26:21You'll go head-to-head on the best of three questions.
0:26:21 > 0:26:26For each question, each pair needs to give me just one answer. You are now allowed to confer.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30Find an answer that scores less than the other pair and you win that question.
0:26:30 > 0:26:36The first pair to get to the best of three will be playing for today's jackpot. Let's play Pointless.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43OK, here is your first question.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:26:46 > 0:26:51as many Flintstones characters as they could.
0:26:51 > 0:26:55- Richard.- We're looking for any of the four main characters and their two children
0:26:55 > 0:27:00that make up the immediate Flintstone and Rubble families in the animated TV show.
0:27:00 > 0:27:05No pets, please, just the four main characters and their two children. See if you can name all six at home.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09Thank you very much. OK, Tom and Hazel, because you've played best so far,
0:27:09 > 0:27:13you get to go first. We're looking for Flintstones characters.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16- THEY WHISPER - OK.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18- That didn't take long!- Pebbles.
0:27:18 > 0:27:24Pebbles. OK, we have Pebbles. Taresh and Raj.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Well, it's pointless going for Fred and Barney and Wilma.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31- Bamm-Bamm.- Bamm-Bamm it has to be. - Probably Bamm-Bamm.- Yeah.
0:27:31 > 0:27:36- BOTH: Bamm-Bamm.- Bamm-Bamm, OK. We have Pebbles, we have Bamm-Bamm. In the order they were given.
0:27:36 > 0:27:41Tom and Hazel went for Pebbles. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43It's right.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48- 63. - APPLAUSE
0:27:51 > 0:27:5563 for Pebbles. Taresh and Raj, you've gone for Bamm-Bamm.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Bamm-Bamm.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01It's correct.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04- Ooh!- 71 for Bamm-Bamm. - APPLAUSE
0:28:04 > 0:28:09So, after our first question, Tom and Hazel are in the lead 1-0. Richard.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12Yeah, very, very high-scoring round, this one,
0:28:12 > 0:28:15including that rarest of things, there's a 100 score.
0:28:15 > 0:28:20Let's take a look at all six answers. Pebbles is the best answer you could've given.
0:28:20 > 0:28:2363 was the best answer on the board, Pebbles. Let's look at the others.
0:28:23 > 0:28:30Betty would've scored you 66. Would've beaten Bamm-Bamm, 71. Lovely name for a child, don't you think?
0:28:30 > 0:28:32- Definitely. - You don't hear it so much anymore.
0:28:32 > 0:28:39Wilma, 91. Barney, 94. And Fred Flintstone, 100.
0:28:39 > 0:28:44- He's done very well.- He has. He really has. Well done you.
0:28:44 > 0:28:48I forgot him when I was thinking of them. I got the other five.
0:28:48 > 0:28:52LAUGHTER Couldn't get him.
0:28:52 > 0:28:57- Well, we've got it now. There you are, Fred.- Fred!- Remember that.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59Here is your second question.
0:28:59 > 0:29:03We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:29:03 > 0:29:08as many ranks of the Metropolitan Police Force as they could.
0:29:08 > 0:29:12Yeah, there are 11 general ranks in the Metropolitan Police Force.
0:29:12 > 0:29:17Those don't include CID ranks. So "detective something" doesn't count in this.
0:29:17 > 0:29:22Just the 11 general ranks of the Metropolitan Police Force. See how many of those you can get.
0:29:22 > 0:29:25Wow. So, Taresh and Raj, you are to go first.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28THEY WHISPER
0:29:30 > 0:29:32Chief superintendent.
0:29:32 > 0:29:37You're saying chief superintendent. This has to win the point if you're going to stay in the game.
0:29:37 > 0:29:42- Tom and Hazel. - Er, we're really unsure.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44We've gone for commissioner.
0:29:44 > 0:29:48- Commissioner.- Yeah. - We have chief superintendent, we have commissioner.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51Taresh and Raj, chief superintendent.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57It's right!
0:30:00 > 0:30:02Oh, it's good. Very good!
0:30:02 > 0:30:04- Eight points! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:30:04 > 0:30:09Very well done! Chief superintendent.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15Eight points. Tom and Hazel have gone for commissioner.
0:30:15 > 0:30:19Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:30:19 > 0:30:24If you win this point, Tom and Hazel, you are through to the final.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27Commissioner.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29Well, it's right.
0:30:30 > 0:30:33It's another low one.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35- Ooh, 17! - APPLAUSE
0:30:39 > 0:30:4217 to 8. So, Taresh and Raj,
0:30:42 > 0:30:46you are now on a point. So it's one-all after two questions. Richard.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Yeah, two very good answers. There's 11 answers in all.
0:30:49 > 0:30:55If anyone at home got all 11, either you used to be in the police force or you've been arrested a lot.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57Or maybe both. Let's take a look at all of them.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00Commissioner, you were on the right lines.
0:31:00 > 0:31:05There are three answers that could've won it for you and each has the word commissioner in it.
0:31:05 > 0:31:07Let's take a look at all of them.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10Deputy assistant commissioner is a pointless answer.
0:31:10 > 0:31:14Very well done if you said that at home. Assistant commissioner, too.
0:31:14 > 0:31:18Deputy commissioner would've scored you two. I'm not sure of the difference.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22Chief superintendent, we've already seen that, eight. Commander, 13.
0:31:22 > 0:31:27Commissioner we've had, that was 17. Let's take a look at the rest of the board.
0:31:27 > 0:31:32Superintendent, 26. Chief inspector, 35. Inspector, 53.
0:31:32 > 0:31:38Constable, 71. And right at the top, sergeant with 76. Very, very well done if you got all of those.
0:31:38 > 0:31:43Here is your third question. Whoever wins this point is through to the final.
0:31:43 > 0:31:47OK, We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:31:47 > 0:31:52as many US states that border Canada as they could. Richard.
0:31:52 > 0:31:58We're looking for any US state that shares a border with Canada. There are 13 US states
0:31:58 > 0:32:03- that share a border with Canada. - OK. Thanks very much. Tom and Hazel, you go first again.
0:32:09 > 0:32:12- Minnesota.- Minnesota.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15Taresh and Raj, Minnesota has gone.
0:32:15 > 0:32:19- OK, we're going to go with Vermont. - Vermont.
0:32:19 > 0:32:23OK, we have Minnesota and we have Vermont.
0:32:23 > 0:32:28Tom and Hazel, you said Minnesota. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Minnesota.
0:32:29 > 0:32:31It's right.
0:32:36 > 0:32:40- Eight! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:32:41 > 0:32:43Eight for Minnesota.
0:32:45 > 0:32:49Very well done. How sure are you of Vermont, Taresh and Raj?
0:32:49 > 0:32:52I didn't even know it was a state.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54I think it's up there somewhere.
0:32:54 > 0:32:59- It's up there somewhere. - Yeah, I...- OK. Very good.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03If this goes lower than eight, you are through to the final.
0:33:03 > 0:33:07If it's higher than eight... I'm assuming it's correct.
0:33:07 > 0:33:11..then Tom and Hazel go through to the final.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14Vermont. Is it right? How many people said Vermont?
0:33:15 > 0:33:17It's right.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24Ooh, down it goes! Oh, look at that! Three!
0:33:24 > 0:33:26CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:33:28 > 0:33:30Wow.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Very, very well done. So after our third question,
0:33:35 > 0:33:38Taresh and Raj are through to the final 2-1. Richard.
0:33:38 > 0:33:41Yeah, brilliantly played, Raj. It's a very, very good answer.
0:33:41 > 0:33:47There's 13 of them so I know lots of people at home will be desperately thinking about the top bit of America
0:33:47 > 0:33:51and trying to work their way along. I'll put you out of your misery. Let's take a look.
0:33:51 > 0:33:56Pennsylvania, a pointless answer. Very well done if you said that.
0:33:56 > 0:34:00New Hampshire, two. Vermont, three. One of the best answers, Raj.
0:34:00 > 0:34:04Ohio, Montana and Maine, all on seven,
0:34:04 > 0:34:08as is Idaho. Let's take a look at the next page.
0:34:08 > 0:34:12There's North Dakota and Minnesota, both eight.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14Michigan, nine. Washington, 17.
0:34:14 > 0:34:18New York, 20. And right at the top, Alaska with 30.
0:34:18 > 0:34:24It's the most northernmost state in America and also the most easternmost and the most westernmost, Alaska.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27Very well done if you got all 13. Congratulations.
0:34:27 > 0:34:32Very well done indeed. So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, it's Tom and Hazel.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35You've done incredibly well. You did brilliantly.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38Very close, nice and low answers in all cases.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42Pebbles, although it sounded like a high score on 63, was the best answer.
0:34:42 > 0:34:46- Did you have other US states up your sleeve?- No.- No.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49You didn't really need one. Minnesota was pretty good.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52You just weren't banking on Vermont.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55- No.- Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear.
0:34:55 > 0:35:00Well, you've made fantastic account of yourselves and we will see you again next time.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03Everyone gets two shots at the final and this was only your first.
0:35:03 > 0:35:08- But thanks very much for playing today. It's been lovely. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:35:10 > 0:35:13But for Taresh and Raj, it's now time for our Pointless final
0:35:13 > 0:35:17and the chance to win our jackpot of £1,250.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26Well done! Congratulations, Taresh and Raj,
0:35:26 > 0:35:30you fought off all the competition. You have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:35 > 0:35:39You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:35:39 > 0:35:43At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,250.
0:35:43 > 0:35:46CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:35:48 > 0:35:52The rules are very simple. To win the money, all you have to do is find a Pointless answer
0:35:52 > 0:35:56that none of our 100 people could think of. We've only had one today and that was Taresh
0:35:56 > 0:36:01- with The Russia House. A brilliant answer, if I may say.- Thank you.
0:36:01 > 0:36:05You only have to find one more and you will go home with the money.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08First you have to choose a category from these three options.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10We have...
0:36:15 > 0:36:19- I know nothing about politicians.- I would say go for politicians.- What?
0:36:19 > 0:36:22LAUGHTER
0:36:24 > 0:36:28- Popular fiction or... - I think popular fiction. We both can have a go at that one.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31- But it's popular. - I'm going to tell Mum.
0:36:31 > 0:36:36- LAUGHTER - Popular fiction.- Popular fiction.
0:36:36 > 0:36:39OK. That's going to be popular with your mum, is it?
0:36:39 > 0:36:43- Yes. - She'll be glad you've gone for that?
0:36:43 > 0:36:46- He won't be, but yeah, she will. - She's screaming, "Pop divas!"
0:36:46 > 0:36:49- LAUGHTER - What would you like it to be in popular fiction?
0:36:49 > 0:36:53Shaawooo... Something that I know!
0:36:53 > 0:36:57- LAUGHTER - Marvel Comics.- Fair enough.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00Marvel Comics. Let's find out what the question is.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:37:03 > 0:37:07as many Ben Elton novels as they could.
0:37:07 > 0:37:13We're looking for any novel published before 2011 for which Ben Elton is the author.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16So we're not looking for short stories or compendiums or non-fiction.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18Just any of Ben Elton's novels.
0:37:18 > 0:37:22OK, you now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:37:22 > 0:37:27All you need to win that £1,250 jackpot is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30Your 60 seconds start now.
0:37:30 > 0:37:34- Gridlock. Popcorn, I think. - Yeah, Popcorn.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37I can't think of any more.
0:37:37 > 0:37:39It escapes me.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42Does that not include his musicals?
0:37:42 > 0:37:44- No, no musicals.- OK.
0:37:44 > 0:37:49- I can't remember a third. - I read one but I can't remember what it's called.
0:37:49 > 0:37:53- It was so long ago.- I don't...
0:37:53 > 0:37:56- Politicians sounds good now, doesn't it?- Very good.
0:37:59 > 0:38:02- I can't think of any. - I can't think of a third.
0:38:02 > 0:38:06- I know the popular ones. - Gridlock, Popcorn.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12- No.- I'm out. I've drawn a blank.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16Oh. It'll come to me.
0:38:16 > 0:38:22- There is one there in my mind. - You've got 12 seconds for it to come to you.- OK.
0:38:23 > 0:38:27- Five seconds.- Get out of there. It's in there somewhere. Bring it out.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32- Something about New Eden.- OK.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34There's your minute up.
0:38:34 > 0:38:37We were looking for Ben Elton novels.
0:38:37 > 0:38:42I now need three answers from you. What are you going to give me?
0:38:42 > 0:38:44OK.
0:38:44 > 0:38:48- Popcorn.- Popcorn. - Gridlocked.- Gridlocked.
0:38:48 > 0:38:52Guess. I can't remember what it's called. I think it's called New Eden.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55- New Eden, then.- I...
0:38:55 > 0:38:58- New Eden.- And New Eden. OK.
0:38:58 > 0:39:03Of those, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:03 > 0:39:07- Gridlocked.- Gridlocked. OK, we'll put that last.
0:39:07 > 0:39:11- And your least likely? - Popcorn's probably the most popular.
0:39:16 > 0:39:20There they are. OK, we're looking for Ben Elton novels.
0:39:20 > 0:39:25You have to have at least one pointless answer among those three.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28You said this was your least confident answer.
0:39:28 > 0:39:33One pointless answer, just one, will be enough to win you that £1,250 jackpot.
0:39:33 > 0:39:38OK, let's see if Popcorn's right, and if it is, how many people said Popcorn.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41This was your least confident shot.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44It's correct.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50OK, well, down it goes into the 20s.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54Into the teens. If this goes down to zero...
0:39:54 > 0:39:58Oh, look at that! What about that?
0:39:58 > 0:40:00APPLAUSE
0:40:02 > 0:40:08- Who's that one person?- Listen, that was not only a very popular novel,
0:40:08 > 0:40:12- it was also a play on the West End. - Crazy.- And it scored only one!
0:40:12 > 0:40:17So that was your least confident answer. Unfortunately, that's not a pointless answer.
0:40:17 > 0:40:21- I don't think you were expecting it to go as low as that. - No, not at all.
0:40:21 > 0:40:25OK. This could be very exciting. New Eden.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27Might that be the name you were thinking of?
0:40:27 > 0:40:30- Any chance?- It might be.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33This has to be pointless to win that jackpot.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36£1,250.
0:40:36 > 0:40:40- What would you do with that?- Buy a large bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon.
0:40:40 > 0:40:44- A very expensive one. - What kind of Cabernet Sauvignon?
0:40:44 > 0:40:49- The red type. - LAUGHTER
0:40:49 > 0:40:52- OK. - LAUGHTER
0:40:52 > 0:40:55- We have a master of wine here. - LAUGHTER
0:40:57 > 0:41:00- What about you, Taresh? - THEY LAUGH
0:41:00 > 0:41:03- I'll just go to the pub. - LAUGHTER
0:41:03 > 0:41:06APPLAUSE
0:41:09 > 0:41:13Right, OK, here we go. New Eden. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:41:16 > 0:41:22Well, that would've been, frankly, miraculous if a book you'd just made up
0:41:22 > 0:41:27had in fact been written by Ben Elton. You only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:41:27 > 0:41:32Your third answer is Gridlocked. You said this is the one you had the most faith in. OK.
0:41:32 > 0:41:35There's £1,250 riding on this.
0:41:35 > 0:41:38Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:41:38 > 0:41:41This has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot. Gridlocked.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46No!
0:41:46 > 0:41:48APPLAUSE
0:41:48 > 0:41:51Is it Gridlock?
0:41:52 > 0:41:56- We added an E-D.- Mm.- Yeah. OK.
0:41:56 > 0:41:59- It's Gridlock, isn't it?- Yeah. - I don't know.- Ah, close.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02So you haven't found that pointless answer.
0:42:02 > 0:42:06It means you don't win today's jackpot of £1,250.
0:42:07 > 0:42:12- Dear, oh, dear! - Yeah, Taresh is exactly right. It's not Gridlocked, it's Gridlock.
0:42:12 > 0:42:14AUDIENCE: Ohhh!
0:42:14 > 0:42:17If you had said Gridlock, it would've scored four points.
0:42:17 > 0:42:19So that is a relief.
0:42:19 > 0:42:24New Eden wasn't bad. It's This Other Eden. But it would've scored you one point,
0:42:24 > 0:42:26so it just would've prolonged the agony.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29There were a whole bunch of pointless answers. Let's look.
0:42:29 > 0:42:35You'll recognise some of these. Blast From The Past. Chart Throb, which was his Pop Idol satire.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38High Society. All of those pointless answers.
0:42:38 > 0:42:41Inconceivable. Past Mortem, which was about Friends Reunited.
0:42:41 > 0:42:47The First Casualty, which was set in Flanders in 1917. Very well done if you got any of these.
0:42:47 > 0:42:53One last page. Meltdown, which was from 2010 about the financial crisis.
0:42:53 > 0:42:57Well done if you got any of those. Tough luck, guys. Very well played.
0:42:57 > 0:43:01Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye. This is terrible. You've only been on one show.
0:43:01 > 0:43:05You've made the massive mistake of getting through to the final on your first show
0:43:05 > 0:43:08so we only get to see you once, which is our loss.
0:43:08 > 0:43:13But you've been fantastic contestants. Thank you so much for playing. Brilliant.
0:43:13 > 0:43:15CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:43:15 > 0:43:20So nobody's won our jackpot today, which means it rolls over onto the next show
0:43:20 > 0:43:25when we will be playing for £2,250.
0:43:25 > 0:43:29- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Join us next time, see if someone can win it.
0:43:29 > 0:43:33- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And goodbye from me. Goodbye.
