0:00:20 > 0:00:23APPLAUSE
0:00:25 > 0:00:29Thank you very much. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:29 > 0:00:34the quiz show where obvious answers mean nothing and obscure answers mean everything.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37- Let's meet the players. - APPLAUSE
0:00:40 > 0:00:45First we welcome Elaine and Denise. How do you two know each other?
0:00:45 > 0:00:50We met about four years ago when Elaine and her husband were looking to move to West Wales
0:00:50 > 0:00:53and they stayed at my bed and breakfast.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56But the problem afterwards, she told me a few months later
0:00:56 > 0:01:01that she thought I was my husband's fancy woman and I was down on a dirty weekend.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Denise, why did you think Elaine was her husband's fancy woman?
0:01:05 > 0:01:09Well, when she came down to breakfast, she gave me no eye contact...
0:01:09 > 0:01:12That's got fancy woman written all over it!
0:01:12 > 0:01:16- Right.- And she looked so much younger than Pete.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19He will be pleased when he hears that!
0:01:19 > 0:01:23- There's a lovely compliment in there somewhere.- Somewhere.
0:01:23 > 0:01:28- And they then came back another time.- Still no eye contact.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31We knew by then. We knew the truth.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35- What would you like to come up this afternoon, Elaine?- Geography.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39I shouldn't say that, cos if it comes up and I get it wrong...
0:01:39 > 0:01:42Geography and natural history.
0:01:42 > 0:01:47Natural history, geography, perfectly-worded subjects. Denise, how about you?
0:01:47 > 0:01:52Erm, literature, food and drink, a bit of history.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55- Not too much.- Not too much history, for goodness sake!
0:01:55 > 0:02:00- Well, let's see. Very best of luck. Great to have you here. Welcome to the show.- Thank you.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Next we welcome Ali and Lucy. How do you two know each other?
0:02:03 > 0:02:07We're a couple. I met Lucy in freshers' week at university.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10- Where were you at university? - University of York.
0:02:10 > 0:02:15I'm hoping you're also at University of York. You don't just go to freshers' week.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18No, no, we live together. We're in the same flat.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22- What do you do at university?- I do law.- And you, Lucy?- English Lit.
0:02:22 > 0:02:27How long into the first term did it take you to get together?
0:02:27 > 0:02:32- It was the end of the first term. - Yeah.- December.- It was a Christmas thing. A Christmas romance.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Aww! Well, that's wonderful.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Ali, what do you do when you're not reading Law?
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Erm, I've done quite a bit of music in my life
0:02:40 > 0:02:42before joining university
0:02:42 > 0:02:47and in between starting at York, I was in a band for three years.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51- What was the name of your band? - Elliot Minor. - Elliot Minor. Richard.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55I do know Elliot Minor, yeah. That's weird.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58You did a cover of Rule The World, the Take That song.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Yep.- And I once played that to Gary Barlow.
0:03:00 > 0:03:05- You didn't.- Yeah. He was very impressed. I did, honestly.- Oh, good.
0:03:05 > 0:03:10- Isn't that weird?- That is weird!- And you're in Elliot Minor?- Not any more.
0:03:10 > 0:03:16- Yeah, they were rubbish, Elliot Minor.- They were quite good and now,
0:03:16 > 0:03:20- since... - Are they gone for good or have they just got rid of the keyboardist?
0:03:20 > 0:03:24They haven't gone for good. Everyone's taking time out to do their own thing.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26That's usually a good sign for a band.
0:03:26 > 0:03:30- LAUGHTER - Well, very well done, Ali. It's great to have you on the show.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34Next we welcome back Juanita and Cheryl. You were on the show last time.
0:03:34 > 0:03:39Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final and this is your last chance. Remind us how you did.
0:03:39 > 0:03:43We went out in the first round. I got the question wrong, but it was her fault.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45LAUGHTER
0:03:45 > 0:03:50- Well, yeah... - Then she pulled a nine-pointer out of the hat in the second round.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54I'm trying to think what a nine-pointer is. It sounds...
0:03:54 > 0:03:59And it fits in a hat? What do you like to do, Juanita?
0:03:59 > 0:04:03I do lots of things. I write a bit of poetry.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- What sort of poetry do you write? - Comic verse.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09- Comic verse. - I do a lot of comic verse, yes.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13Fantastic. You wouldn't like to come up with a comic verse for us, would you?
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- SHE LAUGHS - Well, erm...
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Alexander and Richard, you'll see
0:04:19 > 0:04:21on that Pointless show on BBC.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24As a pair, they're a hit
0:04:24 > 0:04:26- cos...- Oh, hang on. - Hold on a minute!
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- Yeah, I see! - I don't like the way this is going!
0:04:29 > 0:04:33Now, now, now, this is the BBC. Cos they're so full of wit.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35LAUGHTER
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Comic banter and grand repartee.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40- Aww! What about that?- Very good.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43APPLAUSE
0:04:43 > 0:04:46You are full of wit!
0:04:46 > 0:04:50LAUGHTER Well, I like to think that, together, we're full of wit,
0:04:50 > 0:04:52- which makes us both half-wits.- Yeah. - LAUGHTER
0:04:52 > 0:04:57Very good. Thank you for that, Juanita. We might come back to you for some more.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00Very best of luck to the pair of you. Great to have you back.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03And finally we've got Paul and Nick. How do you two know each other?
0:05:03 > 0:05:06- We're brothers-in-law. - Brothers-in-law?
0:05:06 > 0:05:10Well, he's my half-brother-in-law cos he's not married yet.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12LAUGHTER
0:05:12 > 0:05:16We are engaged but just not married yet, that's all.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20- So I'm his half-brother-in-law, obviously.- Half-br...- Yeah.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22You be whatever you like. What do you do, Nick?
0:05:22 > 0:05:26I'm a housing officer for a local authority.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30- Very good. How about you, Paul? - I'm an electrician for the same local authority.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33- Do you work together on projects often.- No.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36- Occasionally.- Not after that last time.- Only if I have to.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Yeah, only if he has to.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42Nick, what would you like to see come up this afternoon?
0:05:42 > 0:05:44A nice bit of science fiction would be good. Or comics.
0:05:44 > 0:05:49Some really pointless stuff. I've got a mind full of pointless information.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52You've come to the right place. Paul, how about you?
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Anything except literature and whatever he's just said.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59- Perfect. That's brilliant. - That'll do me nicely.- Fantastic.
0:05:59 > 0:06:05We'll find out more about all of you throughout the show. There is only one person left to introduce.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08He's got 99 problems but the facts ain't one.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12- He's my Pointless friend. He's Richard.- Hiya. Hello.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14APPLAUSE
0:06:19 > 0:06:23- How are you this afternoon? - I mustn't grumble. How about you?
0:06:23 > 0:06:27Yeah, not bad at all. We've got one returning pair today and that's Juanita and Cheryl.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30We didn't see much of them last time, so it's a very open field.
0:06:30 > 0:06:34Before the show, I have a look at the questions to see how I would've done.
0:06:34 > 0:06:39Round two today, I think I did worse than on any question in Pointless history.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41So maybe it's just me or maybe it's very difficult.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47OK. We'll look forward to that one. Thanks, Richard.
0:06:47 > 0:06:53We put all our questions to 100 people before the show, but we want the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:06:53 > 0:06:58To stay in the game with a chance to win our jackpot, our players need to score as few point as they can.
0:06:58 > 0:07:03What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer that none of our 100 people gave.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Each time that happens, we'll add £250 to the jackpot.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Nobody won the jackpot last time so we add £1,000 to it.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13So today's jackpot starts off at £2,500.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Right, let's play Pointless!
0:07:25 > 0:07:30In the first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34The team with the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38If anyone gives me an incorrect answer, they score the maximum of 100 points.
0:07:38 > 0:07:44So try and avoid those. Our first category this afternoon is football.
0:07:45 > 0:07:50Football. Can you decide in your pairs who'll go first, who'll go second?
0:07:50 > 0:07:53And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:08:00 > 0:08:06as many England World Cup squads since 2000 as they could.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09England World Cup squads since 2000. Richard.
0:08:09 > 0:08:14Yeah, we're looking for any player who was in the final World Cup squad
0:08:14 > 0:08:18for the 2002, 2006 or 2010 World Cup.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22Any player who was in the final squad. They didn't actually have to play in the finals,
0:08:22 > 0:08:25but anyone who was in any of those three squads, please.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27OK. Thank you very much, Richard.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31Elaine and Denise, you all drew lots before the show and you get to go first.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35So Elaine, you are the first person to answer this brilliant question.
0:08:35 > 0:08:41- I think you know all of the squads since 2000.- No.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44It's just a matter of picking a nice obscure name.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46It's not very obscure. Frank Lampard.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49You're going to go for Frank Lampard. OK.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57It's right.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- 41. - APPLAUSE
0:09:03 > 0:09:06- 41 for Frank Lampard. Richard. - Yeah, well done, Elaine.
0:09:06 > 0:09:10If it's a tough category for you, it's all about damage limitation.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13He played every minute of the 2006 campaign and was also there in 2010.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17Famously scored that goal that never was against Germany.
0:09:17 > 0:09:22- Indeed.- We'd have only lost 7-2 if that had gone in.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24- Yeah. - LAUGHTER
0:09:24 > 0:09:32So then, Lucy, we come to you. We are looking for players in England's FIFA World Cup squad since 2000.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37Well, this is possibly the worst thing that could've possibly come up.
0:09:37 > 0:09:41- Do you follow football at all? - No!- Even vaguely?
0:09:41 > 0:09:44- No.- Are you dimly aware of... - I'm aware of the World Cup.
0:09:44 > 0:09:49That's about as far as it stretches. Erm...
0:09:49 > 0:09:54I will go for, erm, Emile Heskey.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Emily Heskey.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00- You've pulled a nine-pointer out of the hat there! - LAUGHTER
0:10:00 > 0:10:05Emile Heskey. Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said Emile Heskey.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Very well done, Lucy.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Down it goes!
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- 11! - APPLAUSE
0:10:17 > 0:10:20That's a great answer. Emile Heskey. Richard.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Yeah, well played, Lucy. Played in 2002 and 2010.
0:10:23 > 0:10:28- I didn't think she was going to say that, did you?- No.- I thought you'd say Sir Bobby Charlton.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30LAUGHTER That's a good answer.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34- Where did Emile Heskey come from? - I just thought that was quite an obvious one.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37I only know about three and that was one of them.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40- Done very well.- Yeah.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Very well done, Lucy. So, Juanita.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47I'm so glad Lucy knew three, because I only know one.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51And it's going to be early bath for me, I'm afraid, this time.
0:10:51 > 0:10:56The only England football player whose name I could tell you is David Beckham.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59David Beckham.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02- It's the only one I know. - OK, well, David Beckham.
0:11:02 > 0:11:08Let's see if that's right. You're hoping to score as few points as possible with David Beckham.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said David Beckham.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18- 63. - APPLAUSE
0:11:18 > 0:11:22Not bad! 37 better than 100. Richard.
0:11:22 > 0:11:27Yeah. Again, it's not a 100. The only England player to score in three World Cups, David Beckham.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31Now then, Nick, we come to you.
0:11:31 > 0:11:37Remember, we're looking for England players in any of the England World Cup squads since 2000.
0:11:37 > 0:11:41Erm, I'll go for....er....
0:11:41 > 0:11:44..Neville. Gary Neville.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Gary Neville you are saying.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Gary Neville.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01- 12! - APPLAUSE
0:12:02 > 0:12:0512 for Gary Neville. Richard.
0:12:05 > 0:12:10Yeah, good answer. Played in '98 but also played in 2006, so a correct answer.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14We're halfway through the round, so let's take a look at the scores.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19She said it was the worst possible subject for her. She then scored the best score in the pass.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Lucy, that's wonderful, a score of 11.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25Then up one to Nick and Paul on 12.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Then up to 41 for Elaine and Denise.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30And then 63, Juanita and Cheryl.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33So on the next pass, it's between Denise and Cheryl
0:12:33 > 0:12:38to tussle out to see who can score the lowest. Back down the line. Second players, take your places.
0:12:42 > 0:12:47OK, we're looking for players in England's FIFA World Cup squads since 2000.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Paul, Nick did pretty well there with Gary Neville.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55The high scorers on 63 are Juanita and Cheryl.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57If you can score 50 or less with this answer,
0:12:57 > 0:13:02you are through to the next round. I'm guessing it's quite a good subject for you.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05- Not really. I don't watch much football.- Really?- Yeah.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Erm, let's think.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Er, I feel quite stupid now.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16- HE LAUGHS - OK, I'll go with Phil Neville.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18- Phil Neville.- Yeah. - LAUGHTER
0:13:18 > 0:13:22OK. You're going to go with Phil Neville. Here is your red line.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27If Phil Neville gets you below that red line, you are definitely through. Let's see.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Phil Neville, is it right? How many people said it?
0:13:34 > 0:13:36- Ooh.- Oh, no!
0:13:36 > 0:13:40Bad luck, Paul. I'm afraid Phil Neville is an incorrect answer,
0:13:40 > 0:13:44which means you score the maximum of 100 points. That takes your total to 112.
0:13:44 > 0:13:49- Richard.- Unlucky, Paul. He was in contention for all three squads but never made it into any of them.
0:13:49 > 0:13:54They hold the record for England appearances by brothers, beating the Charltons by one cap.
0:13:54 > 0:13:59- But Phil Neville hadn't played in 2002, 2006 or 2010, I'm afraid.- OK.
0:13:59 > 0:14:05OK. Bad luck, Paul. So, Cheryl, you've been thrown a lifeline by Paul there.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Paul and Nick are the current high scorers on 112.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11If you can score 48 or less with this answer, you are through.
0:14:11 > 0:14:16The last time I watched football, Gordon Banks was in goal for England.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18- LAUGHTER - That's how long ago it was.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22The only name I can think of is Ashley Cole.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25- Oh, see, all this... - He's married to Cheryl, so...
0:14:25 > 0:14:27Or was.
0:14:27 > 0:14:33All this preamble of saying, "I know nothing about football." Straight out with a brilliant answer.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36I say that. I say brilliant answer, it might be wrong, who knows?
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Erm, there is a red line.
0:14:38 > 0:14:43Ashley Cole gets you below that red line, you are through to the next round.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Ashley Cole.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52There we are, Cheryl. Well done you.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56- You've done it!- Yes! - APPLAUSE - Very, very good.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03Scores you 31. Takes your total up to 94. Richard.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07Yeah, played in all three of those World Cups. He's a distant relation of Mariah Carey.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10And was briefly an even closer relation of Cheryl Cole.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13But not any more. LAUGHTER
0:15:13 > 0:15:16- He's a distant relation of Mariah Carey?- Yep.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20- I never knew that.- Did you not? - Did anyone else know that? - AUDIENCE: No.
0:15:20 > 0:15:26- Did you know that?- ALL: No. Well, he is. LAUGHTER
0:15:26 > 0:15:32- Are they half-brothers-in-law? - Yeah, yeah, they're half-brothers-in-law, yeah.
0:15:32 > 0:15:37- So not that close then. - That's what they are. They're cousins, distant cousins.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40Anyway, there we are. Now then...
0:15:41 > 0:15:44..Ali and Lucy, you are in a fantastic position.
0:15:44 > 0:15:49It doesn't matter what you say here, Ali. You're through to the next round.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52You'll never overtake Paul and Nick's score of 112.
0:15:52 > 0:15:56Bearing that in mind, Ali, why not see if you can find a pointless answer?
0:15:56 > 0:15:59- There must be a pointless squad member.- There must be.
0:15:59 > 0:16:03Erm... I've got loads of footballers' names running around my head
0:16:03 > 0:16:08and no-one's mentioned a goalkeeper, so I'm going to go for David James.
0:16:08 > 0:16:14David James you are saying. Well, as I said, you are through to the next round whatever happens.
0:16:14 > 0:16:19So there's no red line for you. Let's see, David James, is it right, and how many people said it?
0:16:27 > 0:16:29- 20! - APPLAUSE
0:16:29 > 0:16:3320 for David James. Perfectly decent score, takes your total up to 31.
0:16:34 > 0:16:39Yeah, well played, Ali. He was the oldest player at the 2010 tournament, David James.
0:16:39 > 0:16:4362. LAUGHTER
0:16:45 > 0:16:48- Right. Now then, Denise. 41. - This isn't my subject.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50- It isn't?- Not really, no.
0:16:50 > 0:16:55You are on 41. The high scorers remain Paul and Nick on 112.
0:16:55 > 0:17:00- That means if you can score 70 or less...- OK. - ..you are through to the next round.
0:17:00 > 0:17:05I'm trying to remember when I've sat with my sons watching football.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Erm, I'll try Teddy Sheringham.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Teddy Sheringham you are saying. Teddy Sheringham.
0:17:11 > 0:17:17Let's see if that is right, and if it is, let's see how many people said Teddy Sheringham.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21It's right!
0:17:21 > 0:17:23And you are through!
0:17:26 > 0:17:30- Look at that! Denise! - APPLAUSE
0:17:32 > 0:17:36The best score of the whole round!
0:17:36 > 0:17:40Two points for Teddy Sheringham, takes your total up to 43. Richard.
0:17:40 > 0:17:45Well played. It scored very low because he was reaching the end of his career in 2002,
0:17:45 > 0:17:50so people didn't realise he played then. One of the pointless answers bears that out, as well.
0:17:50 > 0:17:56There's only four pointless answers of all the names of anyone in those squads. Let's take a look.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00Martin Keown played in 2002, the Arsenal defender, he was pointless.
0:18:00 > 0:18:05Danny Murphy, who was in the 2002 squad, withdrew from injury, now Fulham captain.
0:18:05 > 0:18:10Gareth Southgate was a pointless answer, very famous, I think people forgot he was still around in 2002.
0:18:10 > 0:18:15And Kieron Dyer was also a pointless answer.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18Very well done if you said any of those four at home.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22Let's look at the top scorers, the ones most people said.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25John Terry on 43.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27Wayne Rooney on 61.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31And David Beckham on 63, the most popular answer of all.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34Thank you very much, Richard.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38So, at the end of round one, the losing pair with the highest score, Paul and Nick.
0:18:38 > 0:18:43Dear, oh, dear, oh, dear! Phil Neville.
0:18:43 > 0:18:48- Not a lot I can say about that, is there?- Yeah, well, that's a shame. - I'll never live it down.
0:18:48 > 0:18:52- A great shame, we have to say goodbye to you now, but we'll see you again next time.- OK.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56Very best of luck then. I'm sure you'll go further than round one.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00- Meantime, thanks very much for playing.- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:19:00 > 0:19:04But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14Now, there's only room for two pairs in the head-to-head round,
0:19:14 > 0:19:18so one of the teams in front of me will be leaving us at the end of this round.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Try and make sure it's not you.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23The category for round two this afternoon is Hollywood.
0:19:23 > 0:19:27Hollywood. Of course, this is the one you thought was difficult.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31- Well, I did very badly on it. - You did very badly. - Doesn't mean it's difficult.- OK.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35Can you decide in your pairs who will go first, who will go second?
0:19:35 > 0:19:38And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:19:42 > 0:19:47And our question concerns Hollywood couples and their films.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Hollywood couples and their films. Richard.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53We'll show you a list of six famous Hollywood couples on each pass.
0:19:53 > 0:19:58We asked 100 people, "In which film did they first appear together?"
0:19:58 > 0:20:03The more obscure answers will score you fewer points, the incorrect answers will score you 100 points.
0:20:03 > 0:20:0612 couples in all, 12 films to try and guess at home.
0:20:06 > 0:20:12OK, so we are looking for the feature films in which these famous couples first appeared together.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15And we have got...
0:20:42 > 0:20:46Ooh, they are tough. But they're going to be tough for everyone,
0:20:46 > 0:20:50so this is going to be a very high-scoring round.
0:20:50 > 0:20:56- What are you thinking, Elaine? - Nothing. Er... - I can't even think of anything.
0:20:56 > 0:21:00I'm going to have to say Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, Cleopatra.
0:21:00 > 0:21:05OK, you're going to say Cleopatra for Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08- Is that a guess?- Yes.
0:21:08 > 0:21:12We're pretty sure they were in that film. Were they in another film before that?
0:21:12 > 0:21:18You're going to say Cleopatra for Burton and Taylor. Let's see if that's right and how many said it.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24It's right! Very well done, Elaine.
0:21:24 > 0:21:29- Down it goes, look at that, 27! That's a great score. - APPLAUSE
0:21:29 > 0:21:33Very well done. 27 for Cleopatra. Richard.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37Well played. From 1963, Cleopatra.
0:21:37 > 0:21:42Now then, Lucy. Lucy, what are you thinking of this board behind me?
0:21:42 > 0:21:47When you first announced the question, I thought, "Yeah, I think I'll be OK at this".
0:21:47 > 0:21:50But I honestly don't know any of those.
0:21:51 > 0:21:56Erm, I'm really going to have to completely guess,
0:21:56 > 0:22:01and say Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder, Edward Scissorhands.
0:22:01 > 0:22:06OK, you're going to say Edward Scissorhands for Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder.
0:22:06 > 0:22:11- That's a stab in the dark. - Yeah. I'm pretty sure it's wrong.
0:22:11 > 0:22:16Well, let's find out. Is it right, and if it is, how many people said Edward Scissorhands?
0:22:18 > 0:22:20It's right!
0:22:24 > 0:22:27- 13! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:22:27 > 0:22:33Lucy does it again! A fantastic score. She says she doesn't know, she does know.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36Well done, Lucy. That's a real Emile Heskey of an answer, that one.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38LAUGHTER
0:22:38 > 0:22:43That's from 1990. Johnny Depp had a tattoo that said, "Winona forever"
0:22:43 > 0:22:46and when they split up he had the "na" crossed out,
0:22:46 > 0:22:49so it now says, "Wino forever." LAUGHTER
0:22:49 > 0:22:53Thank you very much. Now then, Juanita.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57We are looking for the films in which these couples first appeared together.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01I would have gone for Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. It's the only one that I know.
0:23:01 > 0:23:07I know the film with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall but I can't remember the title.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09Erm...
0:23:09 > 0:23:12And I don't even know if Michael Douglas was in this
0:23:12 > 0:23:16but I'm going to go for Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas in Zorro.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20Zorro you are going to say for Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas.
0:23:20 > 0:23:25Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people knew that answer, Zorro.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30Bad luck, Juanita. That's an incorrect answer,
0:23:30 > 0:23:33you score a maximum score of 100 points. I'm sorry.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37- Richard.- Catherine Zeta Jones was in it but no Michael Douglas.
0:23:37 > 0:23:42Anthony Hopkins starred opposite her in that. Let's look at all the answers, starting with that one.
0:23:42 > 0:23:46Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas, it would have scored you three points.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51Well done if you said Traffic. Traffic, the first film they were in.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman have been in three films together. But which was first?
0:23:55 > 0:24:00- Days Of Thunder. - It was Days Of Thunder, yes. And a very handy ten points there.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Courteney Cox and David Arquette?
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Scream was the answer there.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07It's the top answer on the board with 40.
0:24:07 > 0:24:13- And the Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall answer?- To Have And To Have Not.- Is the correct answer.
0:24:13 > 0:24:18That was pointless. Very well done if you said that. That would have added some money to the jackpot.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21OK, we're halfway through the round so let's look at the scores.
0:24:21 > 0:24:26Lucy, she's done it again, lowest score in the pass, 13.
0:24:26 > 0:24:31Very well done. A little bit over double that is Elaine and Denise's score of 27.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35And quite a lot over double that is Juanita and Cheryl's high score of 100.
0:24:35 > 0:24:42So Cheryl, you have your work cut out in this next pass. OK, can the second players take their places?
0:24:45 > 0:24:49OK, we're going to put six more famous couples on the board, and here they are.
0:25:21 > 0:25:26Remember, we are looking for the films in which these couples first starred together,
0:25:26 > 0:25:30you're trying to find the one that the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:25:30 > 0:25:36- Cheryl, I think you'll know a couple of these.- My part-time job involves working in an arts cinema,
0:25:36 > 0:25:38and I don't think I know any of these.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42If they had been Hollywood musical couples, I might have had a better idea.
0:25:42 > 0:25:48Er, I'll make a stab at Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis in...
0:25:48 > 0:25:52I think he was in one called The Black Knight.
0:25:52 > 0:25:58The Black Knight you are saying for Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis. There it is, third one down.
0:25:58 > 0:26:02Let's see if that's right. If it is right, that might be a spectacular low answer.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Let's see if it is, and if it is, how many people said The Black Knight.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12Bad luck, Cheryl. I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer,
0:26:12 > 0:26:17which scores you the maximum of 100 points and it takes your total up to an unbeatable 200, I'm afraid.
0:26:17 > 0:26:21- Richard.- Unlucky. I won't give the answer in case Ali or Denise want to have a go.
0:26:21 > 0:26:27OK then, Ali. The high scorers are Cheryl and Juanita on 200 points.
0:26:27 > 0:26:32They are way ahead of you. Even if you score 100, you are still through to the head-to-head.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36Erm, there's one that I'm pretty sure I know there.
0:26:36 > 0:26:41And that is Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. I think that's Twilight.
0:26:41 > 0:26:46Twilight for Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:26:46 > 0:26:48how many people said Twilight.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53Very well done!
0:26:55 > 0:26:57- 45! - APPLAUSE
0:26:58 > 0:27:02Takes your total up to 58. Richard.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06Well played, Ali. Safe and sound. They've filmed five of those films together,
0:27:06 > 0:27:11- from the Stephenie Meyers series of books.- Wow. - I've seen a couple of them.- Mm-hm.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15- And that's all I'm saying. LAUGHTER - Yeah.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18So then, Denise, you're through, come what may.
0:27:18 > 0:27:24- Am I through?- It doesn't matter. You'll never overtake Cheryl and Juanita's high score of 200.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28- So, Denise.- Erm, I'm really stuck.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32The only one I think might be right
0:27:32 > 0:27:37is Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Mr and Mrs Smith.
0:27:37 > 0:27:42Sounds good to me. Let's see if Mr and Mrs Smith is right for Angelina and Brad.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46Let's see how many people said Mr and Mrs Smith.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51It's right!
0:27:53 > 0:27:58High score, 68. It doesn't matter, you're through anyway. Your total is 95. Richard.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02Well played, Denise. That film won the MTV awards in 2005
0:28:02 > 0:28:05for Best Fight and Best Kiss involving the two of them.
0:28:05 > 0:28:10It's not a bad combination, is it? Let's take a look at all the rest of the answers.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13- Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe, do you know that one?- Don't know.
0:28:13 > 0:28:18That's a version of Les Liaison Dangereuses, Cruel Intentions. Would have scored you 12 points.
0:28:18 > 0:28:22Warren Beatty and Annette Bening is Bugsy.
0:28:22 > 0:28:27That would've scored one point. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez?
0:28:28 > 0:28:33- That's in the famously terrible Gigli.- Oh! - Would've scored you two points.
0:28:33 > 0:28:37Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis, there's no shame in not getting it as it's a pointless answer.
0:28:37 > 0:28:42It was Houdini. Houdini was when they first matched up. It was a pointless answer.
0:28:42 > 0:28:48I think the film you're thinking of is The Black Shield Of Falworth, which was the year after Houdini.
0:28:48 > 0:28:54So at the end of round two, the losing pair with the highest score, I'm afraid it's Cheryl and Juanita.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57Oh, dear, oh, dear. That was a very tough round that, wasn't it?
0:28:57 > 0:29:00And if you're going to fail, fail spectacularly.
0:29:00 > 0:29:05You have! You've done exactly that! There's no shame in going out with a high score like that.
0:29:05 > 0:29:07You've tried very hard.
0:29:07 > 0:29:12- You know Juanita wrote us a poem? - Yes, Richard. - I've written Juanita a little poem.
0:29:12 > 0:29:17- Do you want to hear it?- No.- On air? - LAUGHTER
0:29:17 > 0:29:21Our Scottish contestant, Juanita, was convinced she'd become a world beater,
0:29:21 > 0:29:24but to Cheryl's great sorrow, she went and said Zorro,
0:29:24 > 0:29:27allowing everyone else to defeat her. APPLAUSE
0:29:33 > 0:29:38On which note, I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to you. But thanks for playing. Thank you.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42APPLAUSE
0:29:42 > 0:29:47But for the remaining two pairs, things get more exciting as we enter the head-to-head.
0:29:47 > 0:29:50APPLAUSE
0:29:55 > 0:29:59Well done, Ali and Lucy, Elaine and Denise, you've made it to the head-to-head.
0:29:59 > 0:30:03Only one pair can make it through to today's final and play for the jackpot
0:30:03 > 0:30:07which currently stands at £2,500.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:30:10 > 0:30:14You're going to go head-to-head on the best of three questions.
0:30:14 > 0:30:20For each question, each pair needs to give me just one answer, but you are now allowed to confer.
0:30:20 > 0:30:25Just come up with an answer that scores less than the other pair and you win that question.
0:30:25 > 0:30:29The first pair to get to the best of three plays for the jackpot. Let's play Pointless!
0:30:35 > 0:30:37OK, here is your first question.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:30:41 > 0:30:46as many original Warsaw Pact countries as they could.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48Warsaw Pact countries. Richard.
0:30:48 > 0:30:54We want the English name of any of the eight original countries who joined the Warsaw Pact in 1955.
0:30:54 > 0:30:58We're looking for the names of the countries as they were when they signed.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02See if you can get all eight at home. It's quite tough to get all eight, I think.
0:31:02 > 0:31:07OK, Ali and Lucy, because you've played best throughout the show, you get to go first.
0:31:07 > 0:31:11Also because you played best, we have this little treat for you.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15# Yeah, you and me, we can ride on a star
0:31:15 > 0:31:18# If you stay with me girl
0:31:18 > 0:31:22# We can rule the world
0:31:22 > 0:31:26# Yeah, you and me, we can light up the sky
0:31:26 > 0:31:29# If you stay by my side
0:31:29 > 0:31:32# We can rule the world
0:31:32 > 0:31:36- APPLAUSE - Ah, what about that?
0:31:38 > 0:31:42So that was Elliot Minor you were listening to there. Oh, yeah.
0:31:42 > 0:31:48Erm, anyway, sorry. All of which preamble was a means of saying you get to go first.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50Warsaw Pact countries.
0:31:50 > 0:31:55- What's the Warsaw Pact?- I've never heard of it but Warsaw's in Poland.
0:31:55 > 0:31:56THEY WHISPER
0:31:56 > 0:32:02- Japan?- Actually... Japan, shall we try that?- Yeah, OK.
0:32:02 > 0:32:05This is a risk. And Lucy came up with it.
0:32:05 > 0:32:09- We have no idea what it is.- We're not sure what the Warsaw Pact is.
0:32:09 > 0:32:15- Even though I did History A-Level. - LAUGHTER - Erm, Lucy suggested Japan.- Thanks.
0:32:15 > 0:32:19- But I quite like that answer, I think.- OK, Japan.
0:32:19 > 0:32:26We have Japan. Elaine and Denise, you can talk out loud if you like, if you have any further discussion.
0:32:26 > 0:32:31I think they were the countries that were behind the Iron Curtain,
0:32:31 > 0:32:35so Poland, Bulgaria, Romania,
0:32:35 > 0:32:38maybe Albania, I don't know.
0:32:38 > 0:32:44- But I think we'll go for a safe one. - You think Poland was?- Poland? Because you've got Warsaw there.
0:32:44 > 0:32:48- Poland.- You're going to say Poland. So we have Japan...
0:32:48 > 0:32:51- HE LAUGHS - ..and we have Poland.
0:32:51 > 0:32:56Ali and Lucy said Japan. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:33:00 > 0:33:05Bad luck, bad luck. Elaine and Denise have gone for Poland.
0:33:05 > 0:33:10- At this stage, all it has to be is correct. Poland.- Come on!
0:33:13 > 0:33:17It's right! Very well done.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20- 66 it scores. - APPLAUSE
0:33:22 > 0:33:27So after one question, Elaine and Denise are up one-nil. Richard.
0:33:27 > 0:33:31Japan not in the Warsaw Pact. The Warsaw Pact is the Eastern European countries.
0:33:31 > 0:33:36Let's look at all eight. There's a pointless answer here and you did say it, Albania.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39You would have just added some money to the jackpot there.
0:33:39 > 0:33:42Then Bulgaria 15, Romania 17, alongside East Germany.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47Soviet Union 18, Hungary 21, and Czechoslovakia 21,
0:33:47 > 0:33:52and then Poland, because it's Warsaw Pact, on 66.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55OK, thanks very much, Richard. So, here is your second question.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59Ali and Lucy, you have to win this point to stay in the game.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:34:02 > 0:34:08as many Rising Damp actors as they could, Rising Damp actors.
0:34:08 > 0:34:14We're looking for any of the actors credited with appearing in 20 or more episodes of Rising Damp please.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17And Elaine and Denise, it's your turn to go first this time.
0:34:17 > 0:34:21We'll go for Frances de la Tour.
0:34:21 > 0:34:24Frances de la Tour you are saying.
0:34:24 > 0:34:28Ali and Lucy, you have to win this point to stay in the game.
0:34:28 > 0:34:32- I've literally got nothing. - It's a little bit before our time.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36Erm...
0:34:36 > 0:34:38- John Cleese.- John Cleese.
0:34:38 > 0:34:43We have Frances de la Tour and John Cleese.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Elaine and Denise, you said Frances de la Tour.
0:34:45 > 0:34:50- Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.- It is right, surely.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53It is right! It is right.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58- APPLAUSE - 22.
0:35:02 > 0:35:07Now then, Ali and Lucy, you have gone for a complete shot in the dark with John Cleese.
0:35:07 > 0:35:12It's unfortunate because this will decide whether you stay in the game. John Cleese.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15Was he in Rising Damp? If he was, how many people said him?
0:35:19 > 0:35:24Bad luck! As I think you probably feared, that's an incorrect answer
0:35:24 > 0:35:29which means, after two questions, Elaine and Denise are straight through to the final, 2-0. Richard.
0:35:29 > 0:35:34It's tough. If you don't know them, you don't know them. There's four answers on the board. Let's look.
0:35:34 > 0:35:40Don Warrington was the best answer, he played Philip. Would have scored 13. He was in Strictly Come Dancing.
0:35:40 > 0:35:45Frances de la Tour with 22. Richard Beckinsale, who was also in Porridge, with 26.
0:35:45 > 0:35:50And Leonard Rossiter, who was Rigsby, scored 45. Well done if you got all four.
0:35:50 > 0:35:56Thank you, Richard. So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head is Ali and Lucy.
0:35:56 > 0:36:00- Two really tough categories for you. - I should have used some logic there.
0:36:00 > 0:36:04- We did think Poland but we thought "Surely that's obvious". - But anyway...
0:36:04 > 0:36:08- LAUGHTER - We will see you again next time. We look forward to that.
0:36:08 > 0:36:13- You've been fantastic contestants. Thanks for playing. Ali and Lucy. - APPLAUSE
0:36:13 > 0:36:16But for Elaine and Denise, it's time for our Pointless final
0:36:16 > 0:36:20and the chance to win our jackpot of £2,500.
0:36:26 > 0:36:30Congratulations, Elaine and Denise. You fought off all the competition
0:36:30 > 0:36:34- and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy. Well done. - APPLAUSE
0:36:38 > 0:36:41You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £2,500.
0:36:44 > 0:36:48APPLAUSE
0:36:50 > 0:36:54The rules are very simple. To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer
0:36:54 > 0:36:57that none of our 100 people could think of.
0:36:57 > 0:37:02We haven't had any pointless answers on the show today. Find one now to go home with that money.
0:37:02 > 0:37:06First, you've got to choose a category. You can choose from these three options.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16- I don't know Pop Legends.- No. - Pop Legends, no.
0:37:16 > 0:37:20Erm, what about American Novelists?
0:37:20 > 0:37:26- I know some but I don't know modern ones. Shall we try it?- Yeah.- OK.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29- Fashion, I'm not sure.- OK?- Yeah. - American Novelists, please.
0:37:29 > 0:37:33American Novelists it is. OK, let's find out what the question is.
0:37:33 > 0:37:37We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many
0:37:37 > 0:37:42Michael Crichton novels as they could. Richard.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45We're looking for any novels written by Michael Crichton
0:37:45 > 0:37:49and originally published under his own name prior to April 2011.
0:37:49 > 0:37:54No non-fiction, short stories or journalism. Just any novels of Michael Crichton, please.
0:37:54 > 0:37:59- That was, erm...- OK. You now have one minute to come up with three answers.
0:37:59 > 0:38:04And all you need to win that £2,500 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:38:04 > 0:38:09- Your 60 seconds start now.- There was Jurassic Park...- I have no idea.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12- I was thinking traditional ones. - Jurassic Park, er...
0:38:12 > 0:38:16- Erm...- I haven't got a clue. - I haven't got any clue whatsoever.
0:38:16 > 0:38:20I know he certainly did Jurassic Park, Michael Crichton.
0:38:20 > 0:38:23We're going to have to make some up. Erm...
0:38:25 > 0:38:29- Would he have written something called The Swamp? - THEY LAUGH
0:38:29 > 0:38:32A follow-up to Jurassic Park.
0:38:32 > 0:38:35Oh, Jurassic Park. Erm... I can only think...
0:38:35 > 0:38:39I can't even think of, erm... I think we should have had Fashion.
0:38:39 > 0:38:44- Pop Legends we should have had. - THEY LAUGH
0:38:45 > 0:38:49- No. I just can't think of anything. - We've got to make some up quickly.
0:38:49 > 0:38:52- Jurassic Park.- Yeah. - Jurassic Park 2.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55LAUGHTER
0:38:55 > 0:38:57And 3!
0:38:57 > 0:39:01We have Jurassic Park. Erm...
0:39:01 > 0:39:03Five seconds left.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09The Shadow and The Swamp.
0:39:09 > 0:39:13- OK, your time is up. Oh, you poor things!- We should have had Fashion.
0:39:13 > 0:39:15- Or Pop Legends. - It's awful when this happens.
0:39:15 > 0:39:18- And slightly hilarious. - LAUGHTER
0:39:18 > 0:39:23What I now need from you are three Michael Crichton novels.
0:39:23 > 0:39:28- Jurassic Park.- Jurassic Park. - Come on, Denise.- Shadow.- Shadow.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30- And The Swamp. - And The Swamp. There we are.
0:39:30 > 0:39:35Of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:35 > 0:39:39- The Swamp.- OK, The Swamp. We'll put The Swamp last.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43- Shadow in second place?- Yeah. - Shadow in second place.
0:39:43 > 0:39:50And Jurassic Park first. OK. Let's put them on the board in that order. And here they are.
0:39:56 > 0:40:01Right. Michael Crichton Novels, that was the category. You said this was your least confident answer,
0:40:01 > 0:40:06but you only need one pointless answer to win that £2,500 jackpot.
0:40:06 > 0:40:11Let's see if Jurassic Park is right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it. Jurassic Park.
0:40:14 > 0:40:16It's right.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18If this were to go all the way down to zero,
0:40:18 > 0:40:22you never know, our 100 people might not know their Michael Crichton novels,
0:40:22 > 0:40:24then you will leave here with £2,500.
0:40:24 > 0:40:27CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:40:31 > 0:40:34I was cut off there by the number 22.
0:40:34 > 0:40:40That's not a pointless answer. You only have two more shots at today's jackpot.
0:40:40 > 0:40:43Let's just say Shadow was a Michael Crichton novel.
0:40:43 > 0:40:47- I'd kiss her... - THEY LAUGH - ..if it was.
0:40:47 > 0:40:52What would you do with £2,500?
0:40:52 > 0:40:54Go on holiday.
0:40:54 > 0:40:58- And so would I. A holiday. - A holiday. Very good.
0:40:58 > 0:41:01OK, back to the present. We're looking for Michael Crichton novels.
0:41:01 > 0:41:06Your second answer, Shadow. There it is.
0:41:06 > 0:41:11Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:41:11 > 0:41:15If it's correct and it goes down to zero, you will leave here with £2,500. Shadow.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21Oh! Bad luck!
0:41:21 > 0:41:24I think we suspected that might have been the case.
0:41:24 > 0:41:28Only one more chance to win today's jackpot, and it's all resting on The Swamp.
0:41:30 > 0:41:35- Someone has written a novel called The Swamp.- Not him. - Was it Michael Crichton?
0:41:35 > 0:41:40Well, this was the answer you chose to put last. Let's put it to the test.
0:41:40 > 0:41:46Is it right? If it is right, and it goes down to zero, you leave here with £2,500. The Swamp.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54- No! - APPLAUSE
0:41:54 > 0:41:57- Bad luck! - APPLAUSE
0:41:59 > 0:42:02Well, unfortunately, that was an incredibly tough category
0:42:02 > 0:42:06and you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer
0:42:06 > 0:42:11so you don't win today's jackpot of £2,500, which rolls over onto the next show.
0:42:11 > 0:42:15You have been fantastic contestants and you do get to take home our Pointless trophy.
0:42:15 > 0:42:17APPLAUSE
0:42:21 > 0:42:26- Oh, dear, Richard.- Yeah, pretty tough. A lot of his novels made into films, so some big scorers.
0:42:26 > 0:42:30Jurassic Park is the biggest scorer, Jurassic Park The Lost World.
0:42:30 > 0:42:33Andromeda Strain, Disclosure, Timeline, all those were scorers.
0:42:33 > 0:42:38There's only four pointless answers. Let's take a look at all of them. See if you got these at home.
0:42:38 > 0:42:42Eaters Of The Dead about an epic Viking journey.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45Rising Sun, that's an LA murder investigation.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48State Of Fear, an eco-terrorist novel.
0:42:48 > 0:42:55And he directed The Great Train Robbery, set in Victorian London. Sean Connery was in the film of that.
0:42:55 > 0:43:01- Oh, what a shame.- Did you know any of those pointless answers? - Never read any Michael Crichton.
0:43:01 > 0:43:07- Unfortunately, we do have to say goodbye to you, Elaine and Denise. Thanks for playing.- BOTH: Thank you.
0:43:07 > 0:43:10APPLAUSE
0:43:10 > 0:43:13Nobody's won the jackpot today so it rolls over,
0:43:13 > 0:43:16which means on the next show, we will be playing for £3,500.
0:43:16 > 0:43:19CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:43:19 > 0:43:23- Join us next time. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:43:23 > 0:43:26- And it's goodbye from me, goodbye. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
