0:00:21 > 0:00:25APPLAUSE
0:00:25 > 0:00:28Thank you. I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:28 > 0:00:32the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:37 > 0:00:42And first we welcome Davyd and Wesley. Where are you from?
0:00:42 > 0:00:46- From Stevenage in Hertfordshire. - Very good. How do you know each other?
0:00:46 > 0:00:50We met 13 years ago at university on the same course.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53- What was the course? - Music and drama degree.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56- Are you involved in music and drama to this day?- Yeah, a little bit.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59Davyd does some songwriting and I still sing.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03- Is that a profession, Davyd? - No, it's more of a hobby now.
0:01:03 > 0:01:08- And by light of day, what do you do? - My day job, I'm a retail manager.
0:01:08 > 0:01:13- How about you, Wesley? - I'm a business improvement manager for a housing company in Stevenage.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16I see. Right. It's great to have you here. Welcome to the show.
0:01:16 > 0:01:21And next we welcome Sharon and Catherine. How do you know each other?
0:01:21 > 0:01:24BOTH: We're twin sisters. LAUGHTER
0:01:24 > 0:01:27- Are you identical twins? - BOTH: We are, yes.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29- Do you have similar interests? - BOTH: We do, yes.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33- LAUGHTER - I think we might have to...
0:01:33 > 0:01:37How good is your ESP? Are you very good at just thinking something?
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Catherine, can you think something so Sharon can say it?
0:01:40 > 0:01:42It might be rude, so I'd rather not.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46- It was. - LAUGHTER
0:01:46 > 0:01:49What are your interests, Sharon?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Mainly 1980s pop music.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54I love Ultravox, Midge Ure.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58- Sharon, I want you to think of an Ultravox single.- Mm.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Not the famous one that didn't get to number one,
0:02:01 > 0:02:06another one, any of the other Ultravox singles, any of them.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09And Catherine, I want you to tell us which one she's thinking of.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Reap The Wild Wind.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- Was it?- It was. - THEY LAUGH
0:02:14 > 0:02:18APPLAUSE
0:02:18 > 0:02:21It actually was.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23That has ruined the Ultravox round I had planned.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26LAUGHTER
0:02:26 > 0:02:29- It's fabulous having you on the show. Welcome to it.- Thank you.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33And next we welcome back Betty and Sophie. This is your second time on the show.
0:02:33 > 0:02:38Everyone gets two chances to reach the final and this is your last chance.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42- Remind us what happened last time. - We got knocked out in the second round, unfortunately.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46- Didn't deserve to.- No, you didn't. Remind us what it was.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50- Erm, postcodes. British postcodes. - Milton Keynes.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52- You're from Milton Keynes. - City of dreams.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55And you're from Lincoln, which is near Hull.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58- And I thought it was Huddersfield. - Absolute nightmare.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01- We're going to do better today. - Yeah.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04- Both of you are studying illustrating at Lincoln.- Mm-hm.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08When you're not illustrating at Lincoln, what do you like to do?
0:03:10 > 0:03:14I like to watch soaps. That's my biggest hobby.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17- You're a student.- Yeah. - LAUGHTER
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- And quiz shows, presumably. - Oh, of course, yes. Number one.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24Are you a good team? Have you worked as a team before?
0:03:24 > 0:03:26We have branded ourselves "The Quizards".
0:03:26 > 0:03:29- LAUGHTER - Yeah? OK.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33Well, listen, Team Quizard, the very best of luck to you. Great to have you back.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37Finally we welcome Christine and Ron. You were also on the show last time.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41- Remind us what happened to you. - We got through to the head-to-head
0:03:41 > 0:03:46- and we went out on... - Land borders with Brazil.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49- That's right.- Geography not our strong point.- Argentina.
0:03:49 > 0:03:54- Yes, that was tough, though. - We had a bit of luck because we had three on our side.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57Of course, yes.
0:03:57 > 0:04:04Very good. And that is the first grandfather-granddaughter-great -grandchild team we've yet fielded.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07You are watching Pointless history, ladies and gentlemen.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11Listen, it's wonderful to have you back. Welcome back to the show.
0:04:11 > 0:04:16Enjoy it and very best of luck. We will find out more about all of you throughout the show.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Only one person left to introduce.
0:04:18 > 0:04:23He takes the greatest pleasure from the most obscure things. He is my Pointless friend, he's Richard.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Hiya. APPLAUSE
0:04:32 > 0:04:37- Good afternoon.- Good afternoon, Richard.- Should be a good show. Two very good returning pairs.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Christine and Ron got knocked out in the head-to-head. Usually a good sign.
0:04:41 > 0:04:46And Betty and Sophie slightly unlucky to get knocked out. So both very strong.
0:04:46 > 0:04:50A huge advantage to be twins and to be psychically linked.
0:04:50 > 0:04:57- Is that cheating, technically? - Perhaps we should put a lead-lined partition between them.
0:04:57 > 0:05:04- Would you mind, Sharon and Catherine? - Of course not.- Are you sure? Should be a good show. Round one might be
0:05:04 > 0:05:08- the first in Pointless that my ten-year-old son would do better at than me.- Very good.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11Because he's an expert in ancient Etruscan art.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14That's what round one is about. LAUGHTER
0:05:15 > 0:05:18We put all our questions to 100 people before the show,
0:05:18 > 0:05:22but this is Pointless, so we're after the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26For a chance to win our jackpot, players need to score as few points as they can.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer that none of our 100 people gave.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:05:34 > 0:05:38Nobody won the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42So today's jackpot starts off at £6,000.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Let's play Pointless.
0:05:54 > 0:06:00OK, in the first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:06:00 > 0:06:06Whichever team has the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated. Our first category is...
0:06:08 > 0:06:12Decide in your pairs who'll go first, who'll go second.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14And whoever's going first, step up to the podium.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20OK, let's find out what the question is.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:06:23 > 0:06:28to name as many Star Wars characters as they could.
0:06:28 > 0:06:33All the correct answers are characters from any of the six live-action Star Wars films.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Thank you very much, Richard.
0:06:36 > 0:06:41Davyd and Wesley, you all drew lots before the show and you get to go first.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Wesley, in this round, you'll be delighted to hear,
0:06:44 > 0:06:47we're going to give you a choice of seven possible answers.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Your first seven reads like this.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17I can tell you that at least one of those answers is pointless
0:07:17 > 0:07:20but there's also at least one incorrect answer.
0:07:20 > 0:07:25Pick an incorrect answer and you will score the maximum of 100 points. Wesley.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Right.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30I'm going to go with a stab in the dark.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33I think this is a character
0:07:33 > 0:07:36but the only ones I know I think will be very popular ones.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39I'm going to go with Max Rebo.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43- Max Rebo.- Yeah.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45- It's a guess.- Yes.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it. Max Rebo.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51It's right.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Very well done, Wesley!
0:07:58 > 0:08:00CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:08:00 > 0:08:04That's a pointless answer. It adds £250 to today's jackpot,
0:08:04 > 0:08:07taking the total up to £6,250
0:08:07 > 0:08:11- and scores you nothing.- Well done, Wesley. Took a risk and it paid off.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15Sometimes they don't. Max Rebo is a musician in Return Of The Jedi.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Very well done, Wesley.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Now then, Catherine. Star Wars.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25- You know Star Wars.- I was hoping that it would be Star Trek.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27Oh, no.
0:08:27 > 0:08:32I think I will play it safe and say Chewbacca.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34- You're going to say Chewbacca?- Yes.
0:08:34 > 0:08:39OK. Let's see if Chewbacca is right, and if it is, how many people said Chewbacca.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41It's right!
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- 43. - APPLAUSE
0:08:48 > 0:08:5143. It's right.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55- Quite a big score, though. - Yeah, better safe than sorry, though.
0:08:55 > 0:09:00- Chewbacca the Wookiee, of course. Appears in the original trilogy and in Revenge Of The Sith.- OK.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Thank you. Now then, Betty, Betty,
0:09:03 > 0:09:07Star Wars, something I think you might know a lot about.
0:09:07 > 0:09:12Well, I'm going to be brave and I really, really hope that Sophie won't hate me.
0:09:12 > 0:09:18I'm going to make a guess. So I am going to say Count Dooku.
0:09:18 > 0:09:23- Count Dooku.- Yeah. I think he might be blue, but that's just me.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27OK. Count Dooku. One up from the bottom. Let's see if it's right, and if it is,
0:09:27 > 0:09:30let's see how many people said it. Count Dooku. Good luck.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35Very well done, Betty. Very well done.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- Very, very well done, Betty. - Is he blue?
0:09:48 > 0:09:53We'll discover in a second. Count Dooku was a correct answer and a brilliant score.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57- Richard. - Count Dooku is not blue, I'm afraid.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00He's a Jedi knight gone bad, played by Christopher Lee.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02- Ooh!- Yeah. Pretty good, eh? - Sounds sexy.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Erm, yeah. LAUGHTER
0:10:05 > 0:10:10If you like non-blue Jedi knights, yeah, he's pretty sexy. THEY LAUGH
0:10:10 > 0:10:14I don't want to boast, but I can usually do two out of three of the Count Dookus
0:10:14 > 0:10:17- on the back of the Times. - LAUGHTER
0:10:17 > 0:10:20You know, I don't want to boast.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23OK, now then, Christine.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25- Yes. - Christine. Star Wars characters.
0:10:25 > 0:10:30- You've seen all the Star Wars films. - I have. I've seen all six of them.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34This is your board. You can talk us through the board if you like
0:10:34 > 0:10:38- and then pick one at the end. - Well, I know there's a CP3O.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42But I don't know about a TC-14 or a DC-01.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Ko-Ko, I've no idea.
0:10:45 > 0:10:52But I know that Anakin Skywalker was the young Darth Vader, so I'm going to go with that one.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56Anakin Skywalker. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06- Down it goes. 14! - APPLAUSE
0:11:07 > 0:11:12That's a great answer, Christine. Well done. Anakin Skywalker, 14.
0:11:12 > 0:11:18Yeah, well played, Christine. The central character in the prequel trilogy, later to become Darth Vader.
0:11:18 > 0:11:22There is a couple of incorrect answers. Ko-Ko is not from Star Wars.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25From The Mikado. That was an incorrect answer.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29And of those other two, TC-14 and DC-01,
0:11:29 > 0:11:33one of those is a correct answer and one of those is pointless.
0:11:33 > 0:11:37I think I use TC-14 on my contact lenses every morning.
0:11:37 > 0:11:42- So I'm going to go DC-01.- DC-01 is a vacuum cleaner, I'm afraid.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46So not a Star Wars character. Incorrect answer.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50TC-14 is a droid from The Phantom Menace. A pointless answer.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Very well done if you said TC-14 or Max Rebo.
0:11:53 > 0:11:58Thank you, Richard. We're halfway through the round, so let's take a look at those scores.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Wesley, well! What can I say?
0:12:01 > 0:12:07- On a guess.- A pointless answer straight out of the stalls. Look at that. Brilliant.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Then we go up to Betty and Sophie, not far ahead on two.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14Then up to 14, Christine and Ron. And then 43, Catherine and Sharon.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19That's not a terrible score but I'm afraid it does put you considerably ahead of the field,
0:12:19 > 0:12:24so Sharon, you're going to have to find a really good answer on the next pass to stay in the game.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27We'll come back down the line. Second players, take your places.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34OK, we're going to put seven more answers on the board.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38We are looking for Star Wars characters and we have got...
0:12:59 > 0:13:02Again, at least one of those answers is pointless
0:13:02 > 0:13:05and at least one of those answers is incorrect.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07Try and avoid those incorrect ones.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Oh, Ron.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14- Did you ever watch any of the Star Wars films?- Certainly not.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Well, nor did Wesley, to be fair,
0:13:17 > 0:13:20and look. Pointless.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Right, I'll have a stab. Jar Jar Binks.
0:13:23 > 0:13:28You're going to go for Jar Jar Binks. There's your red line.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31If Jar Jar Binks gets you below that red line,
0:13:31 > 0:13:36you are through to the next round. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44Very well done, Ron! Look at that! Brilliant!
0:13:44 > 0:13:46APPLAUSE
0:13:46 > 0:13:5113 that scores you. Takes your total up to 27. Very well done.
0:13:51 > 0:13:55- Jar Jar Binks, Richard.- Well done. Avoided the incorrect answers.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58Has a fairly big part in The Phantom Menace, Jar Jar Binks,
0:13:58 > 0:14:01severely reduced after that. A huge backlash from Star Wars fans.
0:14:01 > 0:14:07I would say, by a margin, the most irritating character yet to appear on screen.
0:14:07 > 0:14:11Yeah. I don't think many people would disagree with you.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15So then, Sophie, the high scorers remain Sharon and Catherine on 43.
0:14:15 > 0:14:20You and Betty are sitting on two. If you can score 40 or less with this answer,
0:14:20 > 0:14:24you are through to the next round. Is this a good category for you?
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Not particularly. My housemates will be screaming at the television.
0:14:28 > 0:14:33I just haven't a clue really, but there is one that I recognise,
0:14:33 > 0:14:37so I think I'll go for that, having got a nice low score
0:14:37 > 0:14:39and say Han Solo.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43Han Solo. There he is. One up from the bottom. Han Solo you are saying.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46There's your red line. If Han Solo gets you below that red line,
0:14:46 > 0:14:51you are through to the next round. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Ooh!
0:14:58 > 0:15:00APPLAUSE
0:15:00 > 0:15:06Well, that scored you 42, takes your total up to 44. Don't worry, it's not the end of the world.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10There are still two pairs left to answer. Anything could happen. Richard.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Yeah, very close now. Played by Harrison Ford
0:15:12 > 0:15:16in the original three films. Mercenary and smug.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21Thank you very much. So Sharon, we come to you.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23We're looking for Star Wars characters.
0:15:23 > 0:15:28You aren't the high scorers. The high scorers are a point ahead of you on 44, Sophie and Betty,
0:15:28 > 0:15:32which means if you want to be absolutely certain of staying in the game,
0:15:32 > 0:15:34- you have to score a pointless answer here.- Right.
0:15:34 > 0:15:38I have seen Star Wars films with my children,
0:15:38 > 0:15:41but I didn't particularly take any interest in the characters.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44So this is going to be a complete gamble.
0:15:44 > 0:15:49I'm going to go for Yossarian.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Yossarian. There it is.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54Let's see if Yossarian is a correct answer.
0:15:54 > 0:15:59There is a red line for you, but you won't be able to see it.
0:15:59 > 0:16:03- THEY LAUGH - It's right down there.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07Let's see if Yossarian's right, and if it is, how many people said Yossarian.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Ooh! Bad luck!
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Bad luck, bad luck. I'm afraid Yossarian is an incorrect answer,
0:16:14 > 0:16:19which means you score the maximum of 100 points, taking your total up to 143.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23- Bad luck. Richard. - Yeah, Yossarian. I suspect some people at home will know,
0:16:23 > 0:16:26he's the main character in Catch 22, the Joseph Heller novel.
0:16:26 > 0:16:32So we come to you, Davyd and Wesley. Now, thanks to Wesley's fantastic low score,
0:16:32 > 0:16:35you have been looking pretty good all the way through,
0:16:35 > 0:16:38but now, thanks to the high score of Sharon and Catherine, 143,
0:16:38 > 0:16:43you are definitely through. Even if you score 100 points, you won't overtake them.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47We're looking for Star Wars characters, Davyd. Did you watch all six of them?
0:16:47 > 0:16:52- I haven't seen any of them. - OK. Here's fun.
0:16:52 > 0:16:58Because it doesn't matter what you score and there is still at least one pointless answer on that board,
0:16:58 > 0:17:02see if you can equal Wesley's pointless answer by finding another
0:17:02 > 0:17:04and adding another £250 to the jackpot.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07From the bottom, Greedo,
0:17:07 > 0:17:10that sounds more Lord Of The Rings.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Bossk I like the look of.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15Qui-Gon Jinn, no idea.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19And Ban Ki-Moon I would love to be right.
0:17:19 > 0:17:23I have no idea, so I'm going to guess Bossk.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Bossk you are going to say.
0:17:26 > 0:17:30Let's see if Bossk is correct, and if it is, how many people said Bossk.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Well done. It's right.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Look at that! Very, very well done indeed, Davyd!
0:17:41 > 0:17:45That is fantastic! A pointless answer.
0:17:45 > 0:17:51It adds £250 to today's jackpot, take the total up to £6,500.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55It scores you nothing and leaves your total at nothing. A brilliant total. Richard.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59That's certainly one way to play the game. Absolute blind luck.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03That might be our first ever blind luck double pointless. So congratulations.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07Let's take a look at the rest of the board. Qui-Gon Jinn is the Liam Neeson character.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10Would've scored you a very, very low one point.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Two answers left. One is pointless, one is incorrect.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16One of them is a bounty hunter from Tatooine.
0:18:16 > 0:18:22The other one is the current Secretary General of the United Nations. Which is which?
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Senor Greedo, UN Secretary General.
0:18:24 > 0:18:28Oh, you're so close! Greedo was from the original Star Wars film.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31It was a pointless answer. And as of April 2011,
0:18:31 > 0:18:35Ban Ki-Moon is the Secretary General of the UN. An incorrect answer.
0:18:35 > 0:18:40Very well done if you said Greedo or Bossk at home. Those are the pointless answers.
0:18:40 > 0:18:45Thank you very much, Richard. At the end of round one, the losing pair with the highest score,
0:18:45 > 0:18:50I'm afraid Sharon and Catherine. You see, there's not point having ESP between you
0:18:50 > 0:18:54if neither of you knows the category. I'm sorry about that.
0:18:54 > 0:19:01However, you didn't do badly with Chewbacca. Yossarian could easily have been a Star Wars character.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03But, alas, he wasn't.
0:19:03 > 0:19:08But it's been lovely having you on the show. We'll see you again next time. Thank you.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12APPLAUSE
0:19:12 > 0:19:15But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25There's only room for two pairs on the head-to-head round
0:19:25 > 0:19:30so one team will leave us at the end of this round. Make sure it's not you.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32The category for round two this afternoon is...
0:19:35 > 0:19:40Football. Can you decide in your pairs who'll go first, who'll go second?
0:19:40 > 0:19:43Whoever's first, step up to the podium.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50And our round two question concerns...
0:19:53 > 0:19:58- Richard. - On each pass, we'll show you a list of six professional football teams
0:19:58 > 0:20:02from Europe. We asked 100 people, "In which country do they play?"
0:20:02 > 0:20:07The more obscure answers will score you fewer points. An incorrect answer will score you 100 points.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11Thanks, Richard. We're looking for the European countries
0:20:11 > 0:20:15in which these football teams play professionally. And we have got...
0:20:31 > 0:20:34There are the six teams. You need to give me the countries
0:20:34 > 0:20:38in which those football clubs play professionally.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41Now then, Davyd, is this a good category for you?
0:20:41 > 0:20:45- This probably couldn't get any worse for me.- OK.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48- I'm going to give one a guess. - What's it going to be?
0:20:48 > 0:20:51I'm going to go for Saint-Etienne
0:20:51 > 0:20:54and I'm going to say France and hope I don't look really silly.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Saint-Etienne, France. Well, sounds fair enough to me.
0:20:57 > 0:21:03Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people knew that. Saint-Etienne, France. Good luck.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05It's right!
0:21:08 > 0:21:10- APPLAUSE - 56, though.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13It's quite a high score but it's a lot better than 100.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Well done. Saint-Etienne, France.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19Very big in the 70s, Saint-Etienne. Fallen on harder times since.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Thank you very much, Richard. Now, Sophie.
0:21:21 > 0:21:26This is terrible because my dad is a sports journalist. He'll know all of these
0:21:26 > 0:21:32- and him and my brother will be screaming...- It's postcodes all over again.- Postcodes all over again.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37I'm going to go for Anderlecht and I think that that sounds German.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Anderlecht, German.
0:21:39 > 0:21:46- Mm-hm.- Sometimes I can tell from the murmur or the inhalation from the crowd...- Oh, no.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49..whether or not that's right. I can't.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52- I think I can.- I can't. There's only one way to find out.
0:21:52 > 0:21:57Anderlecht, Germany. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:21:58 > 0:22:04Ohh! Bad luck, Sophie! I'm afraid that's what that noise meant.
0:22:04 > 0:22:08I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer. You score the maximum of 100 points.
0:22:08 > 0:22:12- Anderlecht, Richard. - Yeah, sorry, Anderlecht not German.
0:22:12 > 0:22:17- I won't say what they are in case Christine wants to have a go. - OK, Christine.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19You're the last person to have this board
0:22:19 > 0:22:23so you can talk us through every team on it if you like.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25If my husband was here, he would start from the top
0:22:25 > 0:22:29and read them all out and probably get them all right,
0:22:29 > 0:22:31but I have not got a clue.
0:22:31 > 0:22:36I've heard of Juventus, and the rest of them, I haven't even heard of them.
0:22:36 > 0:22:41So I think I'll have to go for Juventus and I think it might be Italy.
0:22:41 > 0:22:46Juventus, Italy, you're saying. OK. Very good. Juventus, Italy.
0:22:46 > 0:22:50Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Italy for Juventus.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Well done. It's right.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57- Down it goes. 43. - APPLAUSE
0:22:57 > 0:23:00The best answer on the pass.
0:23:01 > 0:23:07- Juventus, Richard.- Yeah, well done. European champions in 1985 and 1996.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11Let's take a look through the rest of the board. Not really a football board.
0:23:11 > 0:23:17A lot of it is geography. Real Sociedad, Spain. They are a Spanish team. 39 points.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Anderlecht is not Germany. Sounds like it is, but they're a Belgian team.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24Belgian champions 30 times. Would've scored you 24 points.
0:23:24 > 0:23:29Steaua Bucharest are based in Bucharest, so they are Romanian. Would've scored you 15.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33And Red Star Belgrade, obviously in Belgrade which is Serbia.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37Seven points. Well done if you said that. Best answer on the board.
0:23:37 > 0:23:41Thank you, Richard. We'll have a look at the scores as we're halfway through the round.
0:23:41 > 0:23:46Christine and Ron, the best score there, 43. Very well done with Juventus.
0:23:46 > 0:23:50Then Davyd and Wesley on 56, thanks to Saint-Etienne.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54And bad luck with Anderlecht, Sophie. That cost you dear.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Back down the line. Second players, take your places at the podium.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04OK, we'll put six more teams on the board and here they are.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07We have got...
0:24:27 > 0:24:32Remember, we're looking for the European countries in which these teams play
0:24:32 > 0:24:36and you're trying to find the one that the fewest of our 100 people knew. Ron.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40I'm all right on English football, but not this.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43They're all such long names, as well.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48I'll go for Panathinaikos, Greece.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52Panathinaikos, Greece, you are saying. The high scorers are Betty and Sophie on 100.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56If you can score 56 or less with Panathinaikos, Greece,
0:24:56 > 0:25:00you're through to the head-to-head. There's your red line. Below that, you've done it.
0:25:00 > 0:25:04Panathinaikos, Greece. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Well done, Ron. Head-to-head.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12- APPLAUSE - 48 that scored you.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Takes your total up to 91.
0:25:15 > 0:25:19- Richard.- Yeah, well done, Ron, safely through. Panathinaikos there.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22- Champions League regulars from Greece.- Now then, Betty.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25These next two answers are going to be crucial.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28At the moment, you are the high scorers on 100.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31You just have to score as low as you possibly, possibly can.
0:25:31 > 0:25:36Now, I'm really hoping that somewhere on that board
0:25:36 > 0:25:40is a team you've heard of and you know which country it's from.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45- Oh, no!- I prefer rugby cos I think the men have nicer thighs.
0:25:45 > 0:25:50- Yeah.- And I like men with beards and they have... You know. Sorry.
0:25:50 > 0:25:55Anyway, I am just going to take a guess.
0:25:55 > 0:25:59I think Sophie would do the same as me. I'm going to go with Rosenborg.
0:25:59 > 0:26:03- Rosenborg.- I'm going to say Sweden.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Rosenborg, Sweden.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10OK. There's no red line for you cos you are the high scorers.
0:26:10 > 0:26:15Rosenborg. Is it right. How many people said it if it is?
0:26:15 > 0:26:17Rosenborg, Sweden.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21- Ohh.- Sorry.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24Bad luck, Betty. I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer,
0:26:24 > 0:26:31so you score the maximum of 100 points, taking your total up to an unbeatable 200 points.
0:26:31 > 0:26:36- Richard.- Yeah, unlucky, Betty. I won't give you the answer in case Wesley wants to have a go.
0:26:36 > 0:26:42So then, Wesley. The good news is, you and Davyd, once again, can answer in the second pass
0:26:42 > 0:26:46- knowing that you are through to the next round. - Er, there's a couple I think...
0:26:46 > 0:26:50Well, FC Shakhtar Donetsk
0:26:50 > 0:26:55sounds like a mixture between an Israeli and a Russian team.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58So I don't know. And I'm thinking SL Benfica
0:26:58 > 0:27:01might be a Spanish team, but we've already had Spain,
0:27:01 > 0:27:05so I don't know if we can have more than one team in a country.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09I'm going to go with St Patrick's Athletic and Ireland.
0:27:09 > 0:27:14Stands to reason, doesn't it? St Patrick's Athletic, Ireland. Let's see if that's right,
0:27:14 > 0:27:20and if it is, how many people said it. No red line cos you're already through to the head-to-head.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22Yes, it's right. Well done, Wesley.
0:27:23 > 0:27:29- 51 that scores you! Takes your total up to 107. - APPLAUSE
0:27:30 > 0:27:33- Richard.- Yeah, well done. Irish champions eight times.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36Let's take a look at all of the answers, then.
0:27:36 > 0:27:42The biggest scorer on that board that we haven't done is Benfica who are Portuguese. 26 points.
0:27:42 > 0:27:48Next it's Young Boys, known as Young Boys of Bern, and they are from Switzerland. 18.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51FC Shakhtar Donetsk, I had the great pleasure of watching Fulham beat them
0:27:51 > 0:27:55in the Europa Cup. They're from Ukraine. Would've scored you ten points.
0:27:55 > 0:28:00And Rosenborg are from Norway, I'm afraid. Would've scored you six points. Based in Trondheim.
0:28:00 > 0:28:05That was a much harder board. Very well done if you got one of those low scorers.
0:28:05 > 0:28:09Thank you, Richard. At the end of round two, the losing pair with the highest score,
0:28:09 > 0:28:11I'm afraid Betty and Sophie.
0:28:11 > 0:28:17- Oh, we haven't looked after you at all well, have we?- You're terrible.
0:28:17 > 0:28:22Yeah, we've given you European football clubs, Star Wars. I'm sorry.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24You went out in round two last time and this time.
0:28:24 > 0:28:31It's consistent, but I'm disappointed. I was hoping to see you hold aloft the Pointless trophy.
0:28:31 > 0:28:35That's all we came for. We don't really care about the money, we just wanted the trophy.
0:28:35 > 0:28:39I'm sorry, it's not to be. Anyway, it's been lovely to have you. Thanks for playing.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42APPLAUSE
0:28:45 > 0:28:49For the remaining two pairs, things get more exciting as we enter the head-to-head.
0:28:57 > 0:29:02Very well done, Davyd and Wesley, Christine and Ron, you've made it to the head-to-head.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05Only one pair can make it to the final and play for the jackpot,
0:29:05 > 0:29:09which currently stands at £6,500.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:29:14 > 0:29:17You're going to go head-to-head on the best of three questions.
0:29:17 > 0:29:21For each question, each pair needs to give me just one answer
0:29:21 > 0:29:23and you are now allowed to confer.
0:29:23 > 0:29:27Get an answer that scores less than the other pair and you win that question.
0:29:27 > 0:29:32The first pair to get to the best of three will play for today's jackpot. Let's play Pointless.
0:29:38 > 0:29:43OK, here is your first question. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:29:43 > 0:29:49to name as many Monopoly spaces worth £200 or more.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52There are 16 spaces on the standard UK London Monopoly board
0:29:52 > 0:29:56that are worth £200 or more. Which is the most obscure of those?
0:29:56 > 0:29:58How many can you name at home?
0:29:58 > 0:30:00Thank you very much, Richard.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04Davyd and Wesley, because you played best so far, you get to go first.
0:30:04 > 0:30:08We're looking for Monopoly spaces worth £200 or more.
0:30:08 > 0:30:11THEY WHISPER
0:30:11 > 0:30:13- Yes.- OK, we have an answer.
0:30:13 > 0:30:16We're going to say the Strand.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19The Strand. OK, the Strand.
0:30:19 > 0:30:24Christine and Ron, a Monopoly space worth £200 or more. The Strand has gone.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27We do not play a lot of Monopoly.
0:30:27 > 0:30:30So I think they're probably quite popular ones,
0:30:30 > 0:30:33but we can only think of Mayfair or Park Lane,
0:30:33 > 0:30:36so I think we'll go with Mayfair.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39- Mayfair, yes. - Mayfair you are saying.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41OK. We have the Strand and we have Mayfair.
0:30:41 > 0:30:44OK. The Strand. Let's see if it's right,
0:30:44 > 0:30:47and if it is, how many people said the Strand.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51Very well done. It's right.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57- 15! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:30:59 > 0:31:02That's a great answer. 15 for the Strand.
0:31:02 > 0:31:05Christine and Ron, you have gone for Mayfair.
0:31:05 > 0:31:09I think a lot more people will have said it than 15.
0:31:09 > 0:31:13Only one way to find out. Mayfair. Is it right, and if it is, how many people said it?
0:31:13 > 0:31:16Very well done. It's right.
0:31:17 > 0:31:19- 65. - APPLAUSE
0:31:19 > 0:31:22As you guessed, that was a high score for Mayfair.
0:31:22 > 0:31:26Which means after the first question, Davyd and Wesley are ahead one-nil.
0:31:26 > 0:31:30- Richard.- Yeah, well played. It's actually the highest scorer, Mayfair.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33Let's take a look at the things that would've beaten the Strand.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36Coventry Street. Well done if you said that. Two.
0:31:36 > 0:31:39Kings Cross Station, six. Vine Street, seven.
0:31:39 > 0:31:44Liverpool Street Station, eight. Fenchurch Street Station, ten. And Marylebone Station on 11.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49There's the Strand, 15. Leicester Square, 20.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52Trafalgar Square, 26 and Oxford Street, 27.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54And the big hitters here. Piccadilly, 29.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Bond Street, 30. Regent Street, 31.
0:31:56 > 0:32:02And at the top, the two most valuable, Park Lane with 52 and Mayfair with 65.
0:32:02 > 0:32:06Thank you very much, Richard. Here is your second question.
0:32:06 > 0:32:10Christine and Ron, you have to win this to stay in the game.
0:32:10 > 0:32:13Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:32:13 > 0:32:18to name as many Herbie films as they could.
0:32:18 > 0:32:24We're looking for any feature films which had a general cinema release which starred the VW Beetle Herbie.
0:32:24 > 0:32:30No TV films or TV series. Any Herbie film up to April 2011, please.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34Thank you, Richard. Christine and Ron, you get to go first.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37THEY WHISPER
0:32:37 > 0:32:41Well, we don't know. This is a complete...kind of guess.
0:32:41 > 0:32:45It's come out of my head from somewhere. We'll go for Herbie Rides Again.
0:32:46 > 0:32:52- Herbie Rides Again. OK. That's just come from thin air.- Yes.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54Herbie Rides Again. Good luck with that.
0:32:54 > 0:32:58Davyd and Wesley, what are you going to say?
0:32:58 > 0:33:03I love the Herbie films, so it's just which one between Herbie Goes Bananas,
0:33:03 > 0:33:06Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09- And The Love Bug originally. - The Love Bug.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12- What do you reckon, Bananas? - Why do we know this?
0:33:12 > 0:33:14- I know! Great! - Do you want to go Bananas?
0:33:14 > 0:33:20- Yes.- We'll go Bananas. Herbie Goes Bananas.- Herbie Goes Bananas.
0:33:20 > 0:33:23We have Herbie Rides Again and Herbie Goes Bananas.
0:33:23 > 0:33:28- Herbie Rides Again, you said, Christine. And you plucked it from nowhere.- I don't know.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31Just from the back of your head, somewhere there it was lodged.
0:33:31 > 0:33:35Herbie Rides Again. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how it did.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37Herbie Rides Again.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40Look at that! Absolutely right.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45- Very well done. 33. - APPLAUSE
0:33:46 > 0:33:50Not a bad score at all, Christine.
0:33:50 > 0:33:54The question is, will Herbie Goes Bananas beat it?
0:33:55 > 0:33:59Only one way to find out. If this wins, Davyd and Wesley, you are through to the final
0:33:59 > 0:34:02to play for that jackpot of £6,500.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05Herbie Goes Bananas, is it right? How many people said it?
0:34:06 > 0:34:09It's right!
0:34:11 > 0:34:16- You've done it. - APPLAUSE - You've done it! 24. Beats 33.
0:34:16 > 0:34:22Which means after only two questions, Davyd and Wesley are through to the final two-nil.
0:34:22 > 0:34:27- Richard.- Well played. It's a category you think you don't know, but it's tucked away.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30You mentioned all the films except the best score of all,
0:34:30 > 0:34:34which is the most recent one with Lindsay Lohan,
0:34:34 > 0:34:38which is Herbie Fully Loaded, would've scored you four.
0:34:38 > 0:34:43There's The Love Bug, the original film. That scored 14. Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo, 15,
0:34:43 > 0:34:45during which Herbie goes to Monte Carlo.
0:34:45 > 0:34:48Herbie Goes Bananas on 24, don't know what happens in that one,
0:34:48 > 0:34:51and Herbie Rides Again, the second film, with 33 points.
0:34:51 > 0:34:54Well done if you got all five at home.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56I say well done... LAUGHTER
0:34:56 > 0:35:02Thank you very much, Richard. So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head is Christine and Ron.
0:35:02 > 0:35:07Through to the head-to-head, which is no mean feat, in both Pointless episodes you've been in.
0:35:07 > 0:35:11It's been fabulous. Thank you for playing. Brilliant. Christine and Ron.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14APPLAUSE
0:35:16 > 0:35:22But for Davyd and Wesley, it's now time for our Pointless final and the chance to win £6,500.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Congratulations, Davyd and Wesley. You fought off all the competition
0:35:31 > 0:35:36- and won our coveted Pointless trophy. So very well done. - APPLAUSE
0:35:39 > 0:35:42You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:35:42 > 0:35:47And at the end of the show, the jackpot stands at £6,500.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:35:52 > 0:35:56The rules are very simple. To win that money, you just have to find a pointless answer
0:35:56 > 0:36:00that none of our 100 people got. We had two pointless answers today,
0:36:00 > 0:36:07and you are responsible for both of them. You only have to find one more and you will go home with £6,500.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10Firstly, you've got to choose a category from three options.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12They are...
0:36:17 > 0:36:20- I think we can safely rule out golf.- Immediately.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23Erm, American novelists could be modern
0:36:23 > 0:36:27or it could be something we know nothing about.
0:36:27 > 0:36:32We're thinking song titles, but if it was a completely obscure band we've never heard of...
0:36:32 > 0:36:37- I think it's our best shot, though. - It's our best shot, isn't it, yeah. - Song titles, please.
0:36:37 > 0:36:41Song titles it is. Let's find out what the question is. What would you like it to be?
0:36:41 > 0:36:45- What would be a good category? - Britney Spears songs. Ace it!
0:36:45 > 0:36:50- LAUGHTER - And Wesley?- Or musical song titles.
0:36:50 > 0:36:53Let's find out. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:36:53 > 0:37:00to name as many UK hit singles with New York in the title.
0:37:00 > 0:37:06Guys, we're looking for any single that's reached the UK top 40 that has the words New York in its title,
0:37:06 > 0:37:09prior to the beginning of April 2011.
0:37:09 > 0:37:14Thank you very much, Richard. You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:37:14 > 0:37:20All you need to win that £6,500 jackpot is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23- Your 60 seconds start now. - OK. New York, New York.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26OK, that'd be really popular but that is one.
0:37:26 > 0:37:31- Isn't there one, New York State Of Mind?- Empire State Of Mind. I don't know if New York's in the title.- OK.
0:37:31 > 0:37:36- She did a single, Empire State Of Mind Part Two, but I don't think New York is in the title.- Right, OK.
0:37:36 > 0:37:40So, we've got New York, New York. Is there something, New York Times?
0:37:40 > 0:37:42There's a song with the word times.
0:37:42 > 0:37:47- Er... Do you know any songs with New York in the title, Wes? - THEY LAUGH
0:37:47 > 0:37:50No. Oh, no. Erm... Right, OK.
0:37:50 > 0:37:55Well, we've obviously got New York, New York. We've got, erm, er...
0:37:55 > 0:37:58Oh, no! Erm...
0:37:58 > 0:38:02Erm... We're going to have to make something up. Is there something called New York Tale?
0:38:02 > 0:38:05- A Tale Of New York? - Tale Of Two Cities, that's...
0:38:05 > 0:38:09No. Is there a song called New York Tale or Story?
0:38:09 > 0:38:13- New York City?- That sounds good. - HE LAUGHS
0:38:13 > 0:38:15Well, we're going to have to just make them up.
0:38:15 > 0:38:20- Five seconds.- Not that have been in the top 40 singles. - Are we going to make something up?
0:38:20 > 0:38:22Yeah, we're going to have to.
0:38:22 > 0:38:24OK. There is your minute.
0:38:24 > 0:38:27OK, here's fun.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30We were looking for songs with New York in the title.
0:38:30 > 0:38:33- I now need your three answers.- OK.
0:38:33 > 0:38:38- First one.- No point saying New York, New York, so what's the one you made up? New York Tale.
0:38:38 > 0:38:43- If we're saying three, we may as well...- OK, let's say it, New York, New York.- New York, New York.
0:38:43 > 0:38:48- Shall we say New York Tale? - New York Story.- New York Story. - New York Story.
0:38:48 > 0:38:51And the third one is?
0:38:51 > 0:38:55Is there one, Only In New York? Something like that?
0:38:55 > 0:39:00- Once Upon A Time In New York. - Yes. Go for it. - Once Upon A Time In New York.
0:39:00 > 0:39:05I tell you, Davyd, if someone else hasn't written that song, you get yourself straight to the piano.
0:39:05 > 0:39:10Of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:10 > 0:39:12Well, I think...
0:39:12 > 0:39:17New York Story, if it's a right answer, will be pointless.
0:39:17 > 0:39:22- Either of the second two, if they exist. - OK, New York Story we'll put last.
0:39:22 > 0:39:27- Which shall we put first, your least likely punter?- New York, New York.- So New York, New York,
0:39:27 > 0:39:32Once Upon A Time In New York, New York Story. Let's put them up on the board in that order.
0:39:32 > 0:39:37And here they are. New York, New York.
0:39:37 > 0:39:42Once Upon A Time In New York. And New York Story.
0:39:42 > 0:39:47OK, we were looking for UK top 40 singles with New York in the title. This is your least confident answer.
0:39:47 > 0:39:52You only have to find one pointless answer to win that £6,500 jackpot.
0:39:52 > 0:39:58So, New York, New York, let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said New York, New York.
0:39:58 > 0:40:04Well, it's right. You thought this might be quite a high scorer. Let's find out. Yes, it is!
0:40:04 > 0:40:07- 70. - APPLAUSE
0:40:08 > 0:40:1370. Now, unfortunately, that is not a pointless answer.
0:40:13 > 0:40:17You only have two more chances to win our jackpot of £6,500.
0:40:17 > 0:40:24If you were to win £6,500, if you walk away with £6,500, what would you do with it?
0:40:24 > 0:40:28- Go to New York. - LAUGHTER
0:40:28 > 0:40:31That is actually what we would do. It really is what we'd do.
0:40:31 > 0:40:35A friend of ours lives in New York and we haven't seen him for a while.
0:40:35 > 0:40:41- We were going to go out to visit him.- OK. So a trip to New York. And then some, I should think. OK.
0:40:41 > 0:40:48Here is your second answer. Once Upon A Time In New York.
0:40:48 > 0:40:52This has to be pointless to win £6,500. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said
0:40:52 > 0:40:55Once Upon A Time In New York.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58Oh!
0:40:58 > 0:41:03That's a song yet to be written. Bad luck. That's an incorrect answer.
0:41:03 > 0:41:08You have only one more chance to win today's jackpot. New York Story.
0:41:09 > 0:41:14New York Story. You were pretty sure there was a story somewhere, wasn't there, a New York Story?
0:41:14 > 0:41:18- Tale?- Yeah, something with the word story connected to it,
0:41:18 > 0:41:22- or maybe Tale of New York, New York Story.- Yeah.
0:41:22 > 0:41:24OK, songs with New York in the title.
0:41:24 > 0:41:28This was the answer you were most confident with.
0:41:28 > 0:41:31This has to be pointless to win the jackpot of £6,500.
0:41:31 > 0:41:35New York Story. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:41:35 > 0:41:38New York Story. Best of luck.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40Oh! Bad luck.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43APPLAUSE
0:41:47 > 0:41:52Unfortunately, you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer.
0:41:52 > 0:41:56You don't win today's jackpot of £6,500 which rolls over to the next show.
0:41:56 > 0:42:01You've been fantastic contestants and you get take home our Pointless trophy.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:42:07 > 0:42:10So, Richard, what were the pointless answers?
0:42:10 > 0:42:13Unlucky guys. The most famous tale of New York is Fairytale of New York,
0:42:13 > 0:42:16the Pogues and Kirsty MacColl, number two originally.
0:42:16 > 0:42:21It's been in the charts virtually every year since. There's Englishman In New York, a high scorer.
0:42:21 > 0:42:26Native New Yorker, a big scorer. Let's look at the pointless answers. There's some fairly big songs.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29People at home may have a pointless here. Let's see.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32A Night In New York by Elbow Bones and the Racketeers.
0:42:32 > 0:42:36Boy From New York City by Darts. A number two hit. That's pointless.
0:42:36 > 0:42:41From New York To LA, another top ten hit, Patsy Gallant in the late 70s.
0:42:41 > 0:42:46King Of New York, Fun Lovin Criminals. REM had a top ten single with Leaving New York.
0:42:46 > 0:42:50New York City Boys, Pet Shop Boys. That was pointless.
0:42:50 > 0:42:54New York City Cops by the Strokes. New York Groove was a top ten hit for Hello.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58The Bee Gees' first ever hit single was New York Mining Disaster 1941.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00Very well done if you got any of those at home.
0:43:00 > 0:43:06We have to say goodbye, Davyd and Wesley. It's been brilliant having you on the show. Thank you.
0:43:06 > 0:43:10- Brilliant contestants. - APPLAUSE
0:43:11 > 0:43:15Nobody's won our jackpot, which means it rolls over to the next show,
0:43:15 > 0:43:18when we will be playing for £7,500.
0:43:18 > 0:43:21CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:43:21 > 0:43:26- Join us then to see if someone can win it. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:43:26 > 0:43:30- ..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye! - APPLAUSE
