0:00:25 > 0:00:30Thank you. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong. Welcome to Pointless.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32Let's meet today's players.

0:00:35 > 0:00:42So first we welcome back Joe and Hazel. You were here last time. Remind us how you did.

0:00:42 > 0:00:46- We went out in the second round. - You had a double 100.

0:00:46 > 0:00:51- Yes.- Go out in style! - We went for it.- You certainly did.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53What would you like to see come up?

0:00:53 > 0:00:58- Em, maybe musicals. - Do you go and see musicals a lot?

0:00:58 > 0:01:03Well, I've been to The Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables, as I call it.

0:01:03 > 0:01:10- How about you, Joe? What do you like to do?- The same. I've been to nearly every musical in London.

0:01:10 > 0:01:16- Really?- Yeah. - You're a bus conductor and black belt in three martial arts.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19Do you have time for anything else?

0:01:19 > 0:01:23I got married. This is my second wife.

0:01:23 > 0:01:27You clearly do have time for other things.

0:01:27 > 0:01:32- I heard a rumour you were Head Steward at West Ham.- Yes. 30 years.

0:01:32 > 0:01:39- What did that involve? - Keeping the people in order. Any problems, I slipped in.

0:01:39 > 0:01:45- You must be just about the hardest man in England.- No... - If you're Head Steward at West Ham.

0:01:47 > 0:01:53- Wow.- Yeah. It's great to have you back on the show, Joe and Hazel. Very best of luck to you.

0:01:53 > 0:01:58Next we welcome back Hannah and Jess. You were also here last time.

0:01:58 > 0:02:03Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final.

0:02:03 > 0:02:07- Remind us what happened last time. - The question was Demi Moore films.

0:02:07 > 0:02:14And we both had one answer each, but they both got taken beforehand, so we got 200 points.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17- That was a really tough first round. - Yeah!

0:02:17 > 0:02:21- We learnt last time that you bake cakes.- Yes.- Not just any cakes.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25- Speciality cakes.- Yes. We've been busy since the last show.- Have you?

0:02:25 > 0:02:32Yes, we have managed to rustle up a few cakes in our spare time of our favourite Pointless presenters.

0:02:32 > 0:02:38Wow, look at that! Martin Keown and Velma from Scooby-Doo! Look at that - wow!

0:02:38 > 0:02:44- There.- You like? - How much icing sugar did you use on those ears of mine?!

0:02:44 > 0:02:48- You're both a bit tanned and stripy.- Yeah.

0:02:48 > 0:02:52It's got a touch of the Wayne Rooney about it, that one.

0:02:52 > 0:02:57If someone brings a knife out, I might feed you one of your ears.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59Oh, couldn't eat a whole one!

0:03:01 > 0:03:04- Em...- Pretty good, though. - Yeah, pretty...

0:03:04 > 0:03:09Oh, look at that. That could be on Crimewatch.

0:03:10 > 0:03:17- "Here is our cake-fit."- If you witnessed a crime, they'd ask you to bake a picture of the suspect.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Yeah, that could work.

0:03:19 > 0:03:23- They're very good.- Very good. - Thank you very much indeed.

0:03:23 > 0:03:28Wonderful to have you back on the show. Very best of luck.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32Next we welcome Fred and Mark. How do you two know each other?

0:03:32 > 0:03:37- We've known each other for 42 years, is it?- 42.- We're father and son.

0:03:37 > 0:03:43- Fred, what do you like to do? - Er, my passion is... fly fishing.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46- Trout or salmon?- Trout.- Trout.

0:03:46 > 0:03:51I make all my own flies and I'm passionate about Sheffield United.

0:03:51 > 0:03:58As you can hear, an enormous representation from Sheffield United in the audience this afternoon(!)

0:03:58 > 0:04:00- Listen to that roar(!)- Oh...

0:04:00 > 0:04:04Hold them back for us, Joe. Come on.

0:04:04 > 0:04:09Now then, Mark, what about you? Are you also Sheffield United?

0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Sheffield Wednesday.- No!- Yes. - Look what you do to your father!

0:04:13 > 0:04:17I know, it hurts him. He's not happy, but that's how it worked out.

0:04:17 > 0:04:24What?! You had a choice. At what age did you tell your dad you'd gone over to the dark side?

0:04:24 > 0:04:27I remember it quite clearly.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30It was when Wednesday beat United 4-0 on Boxing Day.

0:04:30 > 0:04:36- You jumped ship, there and then? - The day his pocket money stopped!

0:04:36 > 0:04:41- I wasn't having him wasting it. - Very best of luck to you.

0:04:41 > 0:04:47- And finally, Danny and Katherine. How do you know each other? - We're brother and sister.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49She's my sister/babysitter.

0:04:49 > 0:04:55- I'm glad you put sister first! What do you do, Danny? - I'm a fireman on a military base.

0:04:55 > 0:05:01- And, Katherine, how about you? - I'm a company PA for a marketing company in Newcastle.

0:05:01 > 0:05:06- I basically do what my boss tells me to do.- That's the job!

0:05:06 > 0:05:07Yeah.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09What would you like to see come up?

0:05:09 > 0:05:15I think... I quite enjoy films, so maybe actors and actresses, something like that.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19- Very good. How about you, Danny? - Laurel and Hardy films.

0:05:19 > 0:05:24- Laurel and Hardy films.- I like them. - Stan Laurel, a Tyneside man.

0:05:24 > 0:05:30There's a statue of him in North Shields. I think he grew up there for four or five years.

0:05:30 > 0:05:34Very best of luck. We'll find out more about all of you later.

0:05:34 > 0:05:40There's only one person left to introduce. He's an obscure bull in an obvious china shop.

0:05:40 > 0:05:44- I don't know what that means. He's my Pointless friend, Richard. - Hello.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53We've got two returning pairs. Thanks for the cakes.

0:05:53 > 0:05:58They didn't do themselves justice and neither did Joe and Hazel.

0:05:58 > 0:06:03An absolutely open field today, I suspect. Should be interesting.

0:06:03 > 0:06:08- I am going to feed you one of your ears later.- Pff, OK.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10I'll eat one, you can eat one.

0:06:10 > 0:06:13We won't need to eat for a week!

0:06:13 > 0:06:17Thanks very much, Richard. We put all our questions to 100 people,

0:06:17 > 0:06:23but we are after the obscure answers they didn't get. To stay in the game,

0:06:23 > 0:06:26score as few points as you can.

0:06:26 > 0:06:32What everyone is trying to do is find a pointless answer that none of our 100 people gave.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Then we'll add £250 to the jackpot.

0:06:34 > 0:06:38Nobody won it last time, so we add another £1,000

0:06:38 > 0:06:42and today's jackpot starts off at £2,250.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Right, let's play Pointless.

0:06:54 > 0:07:00In the first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer.

0:07:00 > 0:07:07Whichever team has the high score will be eliminated. An incorrect answer scores a maximum 100 points.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Try to avoid those if you can.

0:07:09 > 0:07:14In this round, we show you two related question categories.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18This is our exciting new Round One. Two related question categories.

0:07:18 > 0:07:25The first category is played on the way up and the second one back down on the second pass.

0:07:25 > 0:07:29It's crucial who goes first and who goes second.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Let's reveal the two categories.

0:07:35 > 0:07:41Flora will be on the way up and fauna will be on the way back down on the second pass.

0:07:41 > 0:07:46Can you all decide who is going first and who's going second?

0:07:46 > 0:07:50Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54Ok, let's find out what the first question is.

0:07:54 > 0:08:00We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...to name as many houseplants as they could.

0:08:00 > 0:08:07- Houseplants. Richard?- Yeah, all the correct answers are common houseplants,

0:08:07 > 0:08:11- plants that are kept indoors. - Wow. Hold onto your hats.

0:08:11 > 0:08:16OK, Joe and Hazel, you all drew lots and this afternoon you get to go first.

0:08:16 > 0:08:20For each question, we'll give you a choice of seven possible answers.

0:08:20 > 0:08:24Your first set of seven reads like this...

0:08:24 > 0:08:26HE READS LIST

0:08:36 > 0:08:39I'll read those one more time.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50At least one of those answers is pointless, but be very careful

0:08:50 > 0:08:57because at least one is incorrect and will score you the maximum of 100 points. So, Hazel,

0:08:57 > 0:09:01- what do you think of that board? - Not too bad.

0:09:01 > 0:09:07- There's one, two I know. So I'll go for aspidistra. - Aspidistra.

0:09:07 > 0:09:11As always, the most obscure answers score the lowest points.

0:09:11 > 0:09:15Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19Well done, Hazel. That's right.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26Down it goes. Still going down. 11 - well done!

0:09:28 > 0:09:32Good score. 11 for aspidistra. Richard?

0:09:32 > 0:09:38Well played. Sometimes known as the cast-iron plant. It can survive almost anything.

0:09:38 > 0:09:43OK, thank you. Now then, Hannah. We are looking for houseplants.

0:09:43 > 0:09:47Were you pushed into flora or did you choose it? Did Jess want fauna?

0:09:47 > 0:09:53I think Jess wanted fauna, but I wasn't particularly good at either.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55- Flora it is.- Yeah.

0:09:56 > 0:10:00I only know one, so I'll go for spider plant.

0:10:00 > 0:10:04Spider plant you're going to say. Let's see if it's right

0:10:04 > 0:10:07and how many people said it.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10It's right.

0:10:12 > 0:10:1455.

0:10:15 > 0:10:20Quite a high score, but it is right. Spider plant, Richard.

0:10:20 > 0:10:27- Pretty big score, but better than 100. A very common plant. Very good as an air purifier.- Is it?

0:10:27 > 0:10:32It absorbs formaldehyde from flat pack furniture and computers...

0:10:32 > 0:10:38- I had no idea we had so much formaldehyde.- Those of us with spider plants don't.

0:10:38 > 0:10:42Those of us without them are very well-preserved.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45OK, Fred, we come to you.

0:10:45 > 0:10:50It's very early in the game and one of those is really obvious.

0:10:50 > 0:10:54One of them may be a little less obvious.

0:10:54 > 0:10:59I don't really want to risk a gamble at this point in the game,

0:10:59 > 0:11:03- so I'm going to say... money plant.- Money plant.

0:11:03 > 0:11:09Let's see if that's a good answer and, if it is, how many people knew it. Money plant.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Well done, it is, Fred.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16Down it comes.

0:11:16 > 0:11:1822.

0:11:19 > 0:11:23Not a bad score, Fred. 22 for money plant. Richard?

0:11:23 > 0:11:29Well played, Fred. Good score. Also known as the lucky plant or the friendship tree.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32- Sounds awesome. - Doesn't it?- What a plant.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35I'll take any of those.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38Right, Katherine, we come to you.

0:11:38 > 0:11:42Before you give your answer, Danny has brought a good luck charm.

0:11:42 > 0:11:50- What is it?- My daughter Sophia insisted I brought him along for good luck, so there he is.

0:11:50 > 0:11:55- What's his name?- Nibbles. - He hasn't got a name badge.- No.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57He'll get his 15 minutes of fame.

0:11:57 > 0:12:01Nibbles, nice to have you on the show.

0:12:01 > 0:12:05Now channel that, Katherine, and try to find a pointless answer.

0:12:05 > 0:12:10- Em...- Do it for Nibbles. - For Nibbles. Mother-in-law's Tongue.

0:12:10 > 0:12:15Mother-in-law's Tongue. OK, there it is, second one down.

0:12:15 > 0:12:20Is Mother-in-law's Tongue right and how many said it? Good luck.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23It's right. Very well done.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30Down it goes. Seven - that's a great score.

0:12:32 > 0:12:36Well done, Katherine. Well done, Nibbles.

0:12:36 > 0:12:41Mother-in-law's Tongue, Richard. I'm guessing it's smooth and lovely.

0:12:41 > 0:12:47It's actually slightly spiky and sharp. Very good answer. Best answer of the round.

0:12:47 > 0:12:53No one knows exactly why it's called that, but I suspect it's the slightly tongue-shaped sharp leaves.

0:12:53 > 0:12:59Let's go through the rest of them. Pelargonium - if you said that you got a pointless answer.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01South African plant.

0:13:01 > 0:13:07Warbonnet Fern and Thumbergia. One of those is pointless and one is incorrect. What do you think?

0:13:07 > 0:13:14- Em, I'm going to say Thumbergia is pointless.- You are absolutely right. Thumbergia is pointless.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17Warbonnet Fern, which sounds believable,

0:13:17 > 0:13:22is actually one of the plants from Avatar, with blue leaves.

0:13:22 > 0:13:28Thank you very much, Richard. Halfway through, let's look at those scores.

0:13:28 > 0:13:32Katherine and Danny, very good on 7. Lovely low score.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Then up to Hazel and Joe on 11. Lovely answer, aspidistra.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38Then Fred and Mark on 22.

0:13:38 > 0:13:43And then up to 55 for Hannah and Jess. Jess, you'll have to hope

0:13:43 > 0:13:46you have a brilliant fauna answer.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50- Fingers crossed.- We can't say goodbye to you this early on.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53There might be more cake for us.

0:13:53 > 0:13:59OK, can the second players please take their places at the podiums?

0:14:00 > 0:14:06OK, for the second pass the category is fauna. Let's see what that question is.

0:14:06 > 0:14:13We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many species of butterfly as they could. Richard?

0:14:13 > 0:14:17All the correct answers are going to be species of butterfly.

0:14:17 > 0:14:21All the incorrect answers will not be species of butterfly.

0:14:21 > 0:14:27I think I've got that. As with the first pass, we'll give you seven possible answers.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30And those seven answers are...

0:14:30 > 0:14:32HE READS THE LIST

0:14:39 > 0:14:41I'll read those one more time.

0:14:46 > 0:14:51At least one of those answers is incorrect and at least one is pointless.

0:14:51 > 0:14:58Try to avoid the incorrect ones. Now then, Danny, you have a wonderful low score of 7,

0:14:58 > 0:15:03thanks to Katherine. Thanks to Nibbles, really.

0:15:03 > 0:15:08High scorers on 55 are Jess and Hannah. So if you score 47 or less, you're through.

0:15:08 > 0:15:12I can only recognise two out of the seven.

0:15:12 > 0:15:17- I'll say Red Admiral. - Red Admiral you're going to say.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Let's see if that's right.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23Below that red line, you're through to the next round.

0:15:23 > 0:15:27Is Red Admiral right and how many people said it?

0:15:27 > 0:15:29It's right.

0:15:31 > 0:15:3269.

0:15:32 > 0:15:38That's quite a high score. It takes your total up to 76. Richard?

0:15:38 > 0:15:44Very big score, very common butterfly. Native to the UK, North America and some bits of Europe.

0:15:44 > 0:15:49So, Mark, species of butterfly is what we're looking for.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52Did you choose this category?

0:15:52 > 0:15:57- Or did Fred choose flora? - I opted out of flora.- Right.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00OK, so by default here we are.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03It's a bit obvious, but peacock.

0:16:03 > 0:16:08You're going to go peacock. The high scorers are Danny and Katherine.

0:16:08 > 0:16:14You want to score 53 or less. Let's see if peacock is right and how many said it.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17It's right.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Well done, Mark. You're through.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Down it goes. 11.

0:16:24 > 0:16:29That's a great answer, Mark. It takes your total to 33.

0:16:29 > 0:16:34- Richard?- Well played. Another quite common butterfly in the UK.

0:16:34 > 0:16:39- So then, Jess.- Yes. - The pressure is on.

0:16:39 > 0:16:44The high scorers on 76 are Danny and Katherine.

0:16:44 > 0:16:48You have to score 20 or less to avoid becoming the high scorers.

0:16:48 > 0:16:55- I think I'm going to gamble. The one I know will be high scoring. - It has to be a low scorer.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58I'll go for the Southern Gatekeeper.

0:16:58 > 0:17:02The Southern Gatekeeper. This is a complete punt.

0:17:02 > 0:17:06Let's see if it's right and, if it is, how many said it.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08Good luck.

0:17:09 > 0:17:13Well done, Jess! That's brilliant. That's right.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15Down it comes.

0:17:15 > 0:17:21You are through to the next round. And it's a pointless answer as well!

0:17:21 > 0:17:28There we are. That adds £250 to today's jackpot and takes the total up to £2,500.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32It scores you nothing and leaves your total at 55.

0:17:32 > 0:17:36- Very, very well done. Richard? - Well played. Genuine relief.

0:17:36 > 0:17:41Found in southern Europe and North Africa.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44- It's a good name. - Isn't it? Very Ghostbusters.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47- Southern Gatekeeper.- Yes.

0:17:47 > 0:17:51- Did you have a Southern Gatekeeper at West Ham, Joe?- No way.

0:17:51 > 0:17:55Remember, we're looking for species of butterfly.

0:17:55 > 0:17:59The high scorers on 76 are Danny and Katherine.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02You are on 11. You have to score 64 or less.

0:18:02 > 0:18:09- Anything over that and we say goodbye to you. What'll you go for? - Cabbage White.- Cabbage White, OK.

0:18:09 > 0:18:14Very good. Is it right and, if so, how many people said it?

0:18:17 > 0:18:19You've done it! You're through.

0:18:19 > 0:18:2239. Very, very well done.

0:18:24 > 0:18:3139 for Cabbage White takes you to 50 and that sees Danny and Katherine off the show. Richard?

0:18:31 > 0:18:37Well done, Joe. Very common in the UK. Their caterpillars wreak havoc in vegetable gardens.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41Let's take a look at the others. Bow Tie was an incorrect answer,

0:18:41 > 0:18:47although the Russians have the same word for bow tie as for butterfly.

0:18:47 > 0:18:53And the Duke of Burgundy and Prince Yamadori. One is pointless, one is incorrect.

0:18:53 > 0:18:57- What do you think?- I think Duke of Burgundy is...a butterfly.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01You're very good. It was a pointless answer.

0:19:01 > 0:19:07And well done if you knew Prince Yamadori is a character in Madame Butterfly.

0:19:07 > 0:19:15Thank you very much, Richard. So the losing pair with the highest score is Danny and Katherine.

0:19:15 > 0:19:22Bad luck. Mother-in-law's Tongue was a brilliant answer. Red Admiral was very expensive.

0:19:22 > 0:19:27I just don't know my butterflies. I'll have to bring Nibbles back.

0:19:27 > 0:19:34Bring him back next time. Thank you so much for playing. You've been wonderful contestants.

0:19:36 > 0:19:40But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.

0:19:47 > 0:19:52There's only room for two pairs in the Head to Head, so one team leaves after this round.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55The category for Round Two is...

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Famous Families.

0:19:57 > 0:20:01Can you all decide who is going first and who's going second?

0:20:01 > 0:20:06Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:20:06 > 0:20:12OK, our Round Two question this afternoon concerns famous brothers.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Famous brothers. Richard?

0:20:14 > 0:20:21I'll show you six famous people. We asked 100 people who is their equally famous brother.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25More obscure answers score fewer points. Incorrect answers score 100.

0:20:25 > 0:20:30- There are 12 famous brothers to get at home.- OK, thanks, Richard.

0:20:30 > 0:20:36We are looking for the equally famous brothers of these people. And we have got...

0:20:36 > 0:20:38HE READS THE LIST

0:20:46 > 0:20:48I'll read those one more time.

0:20:55 > 0:21:02Joe, there are six famous people. I'm looking for the most obscure famous brother of one of them.

0:21:03 > 0:21:08- Well, Roy O Disney, he would be Walt Disney.- OK.

0:21:08 > 0:21:15You're going to give me Walt Disney. Let's see if that's right and how many people knew that answer.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18Roy O Disney, Walt Disney.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20Well done. It's right.

0:21:21 > 0:21:2351.

0:21:24 > 0:21:2851 for Walt Disney. Richard?

0:21:28 > 0:21:32Well done, Joe. Walt's older brother, Roy.

0:21:32 > 0:21:38I think you're being very kind saying "equally famous" brother in the case of Roy O Disney.

0:21:38 > 0:21:43- Yeah, Walt Disney may be slightly... - He's just got the edge on Roy there. - On Roy O.

0:21:43 > 0:21:47So then, Hannah... Hannah, we come to you.

0:21:47 > 0:21:54- Famous brothers. Of those brothers on the board, how many do you think you know a famous sibling?- One.

0:21:54 > 0:21:57Yeah, it took me a while to remember his name,

0:21:57 > 0:22:02but I think Ed Miliband's brother is David Miliband, though I'm not sure.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05You're saying David Miliband for Ed Miliband's brother.

0:22:05 > 0:22:11Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people knew that answer - David Miliband.

0:22:14 > 0:22:1660.

0:22:18 > 0:22:23Quite a high score, but a lot better than 100. 60 for Ed Miliband, David Miliband.

0:22:23 > 0:22:27Yes, Ed Miliband, the younger brother. David Miliband is correct.

0:22:27 > 0:22:31Not the Glenn "Mili-band", as you might be expecting.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33- LAUGHTER - Oh, dear.

0:22:33 > 0:22:39Now then, Fred, remember, we are looking for the famous brothers of these people.

0:22:39 > 0:22:44Of the four that's left up there, one I definitely know.

0:22:45 > 0:22:51And it's the Jeff Bridges one. I think I know, but I'm not sure if it's his brother or his father.

0:22:51 > 0:22:55But I'm going to take a punt on it and say Lloyd Bridges.

0:22:55 > 0:23:01Lloyd Bridges you're saying for Jeff Bridges and you're hoping that's his brother, not his father.

0:23:01 > 0:23:07Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people knew that answer - Lloyd Bridges.

0:23:07 > 0:23:09It's right.

0:23:12 > 0:23:1433.

0:23:17 > 0:23:1933 for Lloyd Bridges.

0:23:19 > 0:23:23- Richard?- You got very lucky there, Fred. Lloyd Bridges is the father.

0:23:23 > 0:23:29Beau Bridges is the brother, but he was born "Lloyd Bridges", so we're giving that to you.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32Beau Bridges is just a professional name.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34You dodged a bullet there, Fred.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Let's look at the rest of the board.

0:23:39 > 0:23:44Jack Charlton, the brother is Sir Bobby Charlton, but would have scored you 75.

0:23:44 > 0:23:49Orville Wright's brother is Wilbur Wright, the pioneers of flight, would have scored 16.

0:23:49 > 0:23:53The best answer is Jakob Grimm. His brother is Wilhelm.

0:23:53 > 0:23:58- It would've scored you 2 points. Very good answer if you got that. - Thank you, Richard.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01OK, let's take a look at those scores.

0:24:01 > 0:24:05Fred and Mark, that deft answering there with Lloyd Bridges

0:24:05 > 0:24:09earned you 33 and the best score of the pass.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12Then we go up to 51, Joe and Hazel,

0:24:12 > 0:24:14then up to 60 for Hannah and Jess.

0:24:14 > 0:24:18Can the second players take their places at the podium?

0:24:20 > 0:24:25We're going to put six more famous names on the board and here they are.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36I'll read those again.

0:24:41 > 0:24:45We are looking for the famous brothers of these people.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48You want the one that the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51So, Mark, Fred has left you in a very strong position.

0:24:51 > 0:24:58The high scorers are Jess and Hannah on 60. If you can score 26 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01Yeah, I recognise quite a few of those, actually.

0:25:01 > 0:25:05I think the safest option without going for broke is Ben Affleck.

0:25:05 > 0:25:10Ben Affleck, brother of Casey you're saying? Ben Affleck...

0:25:10 > 0:25:15Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said Ben Affleck.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19Oh, a high score there.

0:25:19 > 0:25:2270, that scores, taking your total up to 103.

0:25:22 > 0:25:29- Richard?- Yeah, a very big score there, Casey Affleck, the younger by three years.

0:25:29 > 0:25:34OK, thanks very much, Richard. Now then, Jess, you're on 60.

0:25:34 > 0:25:38The high scorers are now Mark and Fred on 103,

0:25:38 > 0:25:43which means if you can score 42 or less, you are in the head-to-head.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45I'm going to have to go with...

0:25:45 > 0:25:49Yeah, I'll go for David Attenborough for Richard Attenborough's brother.

0:25:49 > 0:25:53Richard Attenborough's brother David, you are saying.

0:25:53 > 0:25:57Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said it.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Ooh!

0:26:01 > 0:26:03Another massive score.

0:26:03 > 0:26:0782, that has scored you, taking you up to 142. Richard?

0:26:07 > 0:26:12Yes, a huge score, but a hugely successful pair of brothers in different fields.

0:26:12 > 0:26:15Hazel, we come to you.

0:26:15 > 0:26:19You are on 51. The high scorers on 142 are Jess and Hannah,

0:26:19 > 0:26:22which means you only have to score 90 or less.

0:26:22 > 0:26:27There's only one I know and I think it's Mark Spinks, the swimmer.

0:26:27 > 0:26:31Mark Spinks you're saying for Michael Spinks?

0:26:31 > 0:26:35- Yeah.- Here's your red line coming in. You'll see how high it is.

0:26:35 > 0:26:42If Mark Spinks can get you below that line, you are through to the head-to-head. Very best of luck.

0:26:42 > 0:26:46Let's see if Mark Spinks is right and if it is, how many people said it.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49Oh!

0:26:49 > 0:26:51Bad luck, Hazel.

0:26:51 > 0:26:57That is an incorrect answer which, I'm afraid, scores you the maximum of 100 points.

0:26:57 > 0:27:03A massive relief for Jess and Hannah. That takes you, I'm afraid, unbeatably up to 151. Richard?

0:27:03 > 0:27:07- Sorry, Hazel, it's Mark Spitz, the swimmer, you're thinking of.- Yeah.

0:27:07 > 0:27:10Michael Spinks, a boxer, as is his brother Leon.

0:27:10 > 0:27:14Probably the most successful brothers in boxing history.

0:27:14 > 0:27:19- You wouldn't know Harry Windsor's brother?- No. - If I said Prince Harry...

0:27:19 > 0:27:23- Oh!- But you know what? An awful lot of our 100 made the same mistake.

0:27:23 > 0:27:29Harry Windsor is William Windsor's brother - 48 points. A lot of people were put off by Harry Windsor.

0:27:29 > 0:27:35David Suchet's brother is John Suchet, the newsreader. Would have scored you 23.

0:27:35 > 0:27:41And Bobby Farrelly is part of the Farrelly brothers' movie directing team with his brother Peter.

0:27:41 > 0:27:46- Would have scored you 1 point. Well done if you said that. - Thanks, Richard.

0:27:46 > 0:27:51- After Round 2, the losing pair with the highest score is Joe and Hazel. - Never mind.

0:27:51 > 0:27:55You say "never mind", but what about us? You have to leave us now.

0:27:55 > 0:28:00- That's OK.- We thought you'd be with us till the final. - I didn't know the question, so...

0:28:00 > 0:28:04Thanks very much for playing. You've been excellent contestants.

0:28:06 > 0:28:13But for the remaining two pairs, things will get even more exciting now as we enter the head-to-head.

0:28:18 > 0:28:22Well done, Fred and Mark, Hannah and Jess, you are in the head-to-head.

0:28:22 > 0:28:29Only one pair can make it through to today's final and play for the jackpot which stands at £2,500.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32APPLAUSE

0:28:33 > 0:28:36You go head to head on the best of three questions.

0:28:36 > 0:28:42For each question each pair gives me one answer, but you are now allowed to confer.

0:28:42 > 0:28:46An answer that scores less than the other pair will win that question.

0:28:46 > 0:28:52The first pair to get to the best of three will be playing for today's jackpot. Let's play Pointless.

0:28:56 > 0:28:59OK, here is your first question.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:29:02 > 0:29:06to name as many countries with a J in their name as they could.

0:29:06 > 0:29:09Countries with a J in their name. Richard?

0:29:09 > 0:29:15We're looking for any of the eight countries in the world that has a J anywhere in its name.

0:29:15 > 0:29:19By country we mean a member of the UN that is a sovereign state.

0:29:19 > 0:29:26We're taking all of the spellings from the English language page of the UN's website as of April 2011.

0:29:26 > 0:29:31Thanks. Fred and Mark, cos you've played best throughout the show, you go first.

0:29:31 > 0:29:36We are looking for countries with a J in their name.

0:29:37 > 0:29:41WHISPERING

0:29:43 > 0:29:48OK, Fred and Mark, you seem to have reached an answer.

0:29:50 > 0:29:52We're going to say Fiji.

0:29:53 > 0:29:56Fiji. Hannah and Jess?

0:29:56 > 0:29:59We're going for Djibouti.

0:29:59 > 0:30:01Djibouti. Very good.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04We have Fiji and we have Djibouti.

0:30:04 > 0:30:10Mark and Fred have gone with Fiji. Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said Fiji.

0:30:11 > 0:30:13It's right.

0:30:17 > 0:30:20Oh, very well done. Very well done.

0:30:20 > 0:30:2310 for Fiji.

0:30:23 > 0:30:27Hannah and Jess have gone with Djibouti.

0:30:27 > 0:30:31Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said Djibouti.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40Look at that. That's wonderful.

0:30:40 > 0:30:44- APPLAUSE - That is a fantastic answer.

0:30:45 > 0:30:512 for Djibouti beats 10 for Fiji, so after the first question, Hannah and Jess are up 1-0.

0:30:51 > 0:30:55- Richard?- Djibouti, of course, ruled by Sheikh Djibouti(!)

0:30:55 > 0:30:58- He's the... - LAUGHTER

0:30:58 > 0:31:04As I say, there are eight in all. I suspect a lot of people at home will have got seven of them.

0:31:04 > 0:31:08But I don't think anyone will have got the eighth one.

0:31:08 > 0:31:11There is a pointless answer - Libyan Arab Jamahiriya,

0:31:11 > 0:31:15which means "state of the masses" or "people's republic".

0:31:15 > 0:31:21Libyan Arab Jamahiriya. Well done if you said that. You should come here. You'll win a lot of money.

0:31:21 > 0:31:26Tajikistan would have scored 1, there's Djibouti on 2, Fiji on 10,

0:31:26 > 0:31:28Azerbaijan on 12, then Jordan 31,

0:31:28 > 0:31:33Japan 56 and Jamaica at the top on 69. But Djibouti, very good answer.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37Thanks very much, Richard. OK, here is your second question.

0:31:37 > 0:31:42Fred and Mark, you'll have to win this question to stay in the game.

0:31:42 > 0:31:48We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many Harry Callahan films as they could.

0:31:48 > 0:31:52- Harry Callahan films. Richard?- Yeah, we're looking for any feature film

0:31:52 > 0:31:57for which Clint Eastwood received an acting credit as Harry Callahan.

0:31:57 > 0:32:01As always, no short films or TV films. Just feature films.

0:32:01 > 0:32:03There are five films on the list.

0:32:03 > 0:32:08OK, thanks very much, Richard. Hannah and Jess, you go first this time.

0:32:09 > 0:32:12I have no idea.

0:32:14 > 0:32:17- I thought he did westerns.- Yeah.

0:32:17 > 0:32:19Say a western.

0:32:19 > 0:32:24- The Good, The Bad And The Ugly?- Yes. - I'll have to push you for an answer.

0:32:24 > 0:32:30We can only come up with one. We're thinking of westerns. We've come up with The Good, The Bad And The Ugly.

0:32:30 > 0:32:32OK, The Good, The Bad And The Ugly.

0:32:32 > 0:32:35Fred and Mark, you can confer out loud if you like.

0:32:35 > 0:32:41- It's the Dirty Harry series. - I think it is, yeah. - Is there a film called Dirty Harry?

0:32:41 > 0:32:43- Yeah.- Dirty Harry.

0:32:43 > 0:32:49OK, Fred and Mark are saying Dirty Harry. We have The Good, The Bad And The Ugly from Hannah and Jess.

0:32:49 > 0:32:52Hannah and Jess said The Good, The Bad And The Ugly.

0:32:52 > 0:32:56Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said it.

0:32:57 > 0:33:02Yeah, I think you might have guessed that is incorrect, so, Fred and Mark,

0:33:02 > 0:33:08you only have to be correct with Dirty Harry to win this question. Dirty Harry, is it right?

0:33:09 > 0:33:13Yeah, you've done it. You're still in the game.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17APPLAUSE

0:33:17 > 0:33:21That means, after two questions, you are absolutely even - one-all.

0:33:21 > 0:33:25- Richard?- Five Dirty Harry films. Let's take a look at all of them.

0:33:25 > 0:33:31The bottom three all scored the same points - The Enforcer, The Dead Pool and Sudden Impact, all on 14,

0:33:31 > 0:33:34Magnum Force 17 and Dirty Harry itself up on 68.

0:33:34 > 0:33:38- Well played, guys.- Thanks, Richard. OK, your third question.

0:33:38 > 0:33:44Whoever wins this question goes through to the final and will play for that jackpot. Here it comes.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:33:46 > 0:33:51to name as many US states on the Gulf of Mexico as they could.

0:33:51 > 0:33:54US states on the Gulf of Mexico, Richard?

0:33:54 > 0:34:01Five US states lie on the Gulf of Mexico. We want the most obscure. See if you can get all five at home.

0:34:01 > 0:34:03OK, thanks very much, Richard.

0:34:03 > 0:34:07Fred and Mark, you're to answer first.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09WHISPERING

0:34:14 > 0:34:19OK, we have an answer from Fred and Mark. What's it going to be?

0:34:19 > 0:34:21We're going to go for New Orleans.

0:34:21 > 0:34:25OK, New Orleans. Hannah and Jess?

0:34:25 > 0:34:28Um... I think we're going to go for...

0:34:29 > 0:34:32- Florida?- Yeah, OK.- Yeah, Florida.

0:34:32 > 0:34:36Florida. OK, we have New Orleans and we have Florida.

0:34:36 > 0:34:39So Fred and Mark have said New Orleans.

0:34:39 > 0:34:43Whoever wins this point goes through to the final.

0:34:43 > 0:34:47New Orleans, is it right? How many people said it?

0:34:50 > 0:34:55Bad luck, Fred and Mark. That's an incorrect answer. Hannah and Jess,

0:34:55 > 0:35:01you merely have to be correct with your answer and you are through to the final to play for that jackpot.

0:35:01 > 0:35:05Let's see, Florida, is it right? That's all it needs to be.

0:35:06 > 0:35:10Yeah, well done. Hannah and Jess, you are through to the final.

0:35:10 > 0:35:14- 59, as it happens, for Florida. - APPLAUSE

0:35:14 > 0:35:20But it merely had to be right. Which means, after three questions, Hannah and Jess are through 2-1.

0:35:20 > 0:35:26- Richard?- Very well played. Fred and Mark, New Orleans is not a state. It's in Louisiana.

0:35:26 > 0:35:30Let's look at all five states that border the Gulf of Mexico.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33Mississippi scored 23, Alabama 24, Louisiana 31,

0:35:33 > 0:35:36Texas 53 and Florida 59.

0:35:36 > 0:35:38Well done if you got all five.

0:35:38 > 0:35:44Well, thank you very much, Richard. So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head is Fred and Mark.

0:35:44 > 0:35:47You've been fantastic contestants.

0:35:47 > 0:35:53We will see you again next time for your second and final chance when I'm sure you will do even better,

0:35:53 > 0:35:57- but thank you very much for playing. - APPLAUSE

0:35:57 > 0:36:01But for Hannah and Jess, it's now time for our Pointless final

0:36:01 > 0:36:04and the chance to win our jackpot of £2,500.

0:36:11 > 0:36:19Congratulations, Hannah and Jess. You've fought off the competition to win our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:36:22 > 0:36:29You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot and at the end of today's show, it stands at £2,500.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31APPLAUSE

0:36:31 > 0:36:34The rules are very simple.

0:36:34 > 0:36:40To win that money, you just have to find a pointless answer that none of our 100 people could think of.

0:36:40 > 0:36:46We've had one pointless answer on the show. You only have to find one more to go home with that money.

0:36:46 > 0:36:50First, you've got to choose a category from these three options.

0:36:55 > 0:36:58What would you like to go for?

0:36:58 > 0:37:02- I don't know.- I'm leaning slightly towards British Musicians.

0:37:02 > 0:37:07- That could be any kind of music. Hopefully, something we know would come up.- Could be good.

0:37:07 > 0:37:10- Yeah.- We'll go for British Musicians.

0:37:10 > 0:37:15British Musicians. Best of luck. Let's see what that question is.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:37:17 > 0:37:24- to name as many...- Oh! - ..David Bowie UK top 40 studio albums as they could. Richard?

0:37:24 > 0:37:30We're looking for any studio album released by David Bowie before April 2011 that reached the UK top 40.

0:37:30 > 0:37:34Collaborations, greatest hits or compilations don't count.

0:37:34 > 0:37:38Just any of his studio albums that made the UK top 40 as a solo artist.

0:37:38 > 0:37:43Very good. You have up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:37:43 > 0:37:48All you need to win that £2,500 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:37:48 > 0:37:50Your 60 seconds start now.

0:37:50 > 0:37:53What was the one you were thinking of?

0:37:53 > 0:37:56- Pin Ups.- OK.- And Space Oddity, I think, is an album.

0:37:56 > 0:38:00- That'll be quite popular.- Yeah. - What else can we get?- No more!

0:38:00 > 0:38:06What's the most recent one? He's done one in the last couple of years.

0:38:06 > 0:38:10It had a really boring video where things were flying.

0:38:11 > 0:38:17I can't remember. We've got to think of something else. Is Ziggy Stardust an album, self-titled?

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Yeah, I think it might be. That's popular, yeah.

0:38:20 > 0:38:24- What other songs are there?- Oh, Labyrinth, the Labyrinth soundtrack.

0:38:24 > 0:38:28- Would he have done all of it, though? Yeah?- Maybe.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31I don't know if soundtracks count.

0:38:31 > 0:38:33Greatest hits don't count.

0:38:33 > 0:38:36Maybe that doesn't count.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38What else can we get?

0:38:38 > 0:38:40So it's Pin Ups...

0:38:40 > 0:38:42The other one.

0:38:42 > 0:38:45- Space Oddity?- Yeah.

0:38:45 > 0:38:50- And shall we chance it with Labyrinth?- Yeah. Should we ask? - Yes, we'll just chance it.

0:38:50 > 0:38:53OK, there is your minute up.

0:38:53 > 0:38:58We were looking for David Bowie top 40 albums. I need three answers from you.

0:38:58 > 0:39:02- I think we're going to go for Space Oddity.- Space Oddity.

0:39:02 > 0:39:05- Pin Ups.- Pin Ups.

0:39:05 > 0:39:10- And the Labyrinth soundtrack, if it exists. - And the Labyrinth soundtrack?

0:39:10 > 0:39:16- Yes.- Of those three answers, which do you think is your most confident shot at a pointless answer?

0:39:16 > 0:39:20- We'll go for... Yeah, we'll go for Pin Ups.- Yeah.

0:39:20 > 0:39:25OK, we'll put that last. Which is your least likely pointless answer?

0:39:25 > 0:39:29Maybe the Labyrinth soundtrack because that might not count.

0:39:29 > 0:39:34OK, we're going to put them up on the board in that order and here they are.

0:39:40 > 0:39:46There they are. We were looking for David Bowie top 40 albums. This was your least confident answer.

0:39:46 > 0:39:50You only have to find one pointless answer to win that £2,500.

0:39:50 > 0:39:57Labyrinth, let's see if it's right and if it is, how many people said it. Very best of luck. Labyrinth...

0:40:02 > 0:40:09Bad luck. That is not a pointless answer, so you only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.

0:40:09 > 0:40:12£2,500 - what would you do with that?

0:40:12 > 0:40:17- I don't know. Go on a holiday?- Yeah. - I'd like to see Europe, I think.

0:40:17 > 0:40:22- That would be good.- Very good indeed. Well, very best of luck.

0:40:22 > 0:40:25We were looking for David Bowie albums.

0:40:25 > 0:40:28Your next answer - Space Oddity...

0:40:30 > 0:40:33This has to be pointless if you're to win that £2,500.

0:40:33 > 0:40:36Let's see how many people said Space Oddity.

0:40:37 > 0:40:39Well, it's right.

0:40:39 > 0:40:44This is your second of three shots at the jackpot of £2,500.

0:40:44 > 0:40:50If this goes all the way down to zero, you'll be leaving us with that money. Down it goes.

0:40:50 > 0:40:517.

0:40:51 > 0:40:54APPLAUSE

0:40:56 > 0:41:027. You only have one more chance to win the jackpot. Who's going to be watching you at home?

0:41:02 > 0:41:07I think my little brother Sam will probably be screaming at the TV right now.

0:41:07 > 0:41:13- Is he a David Bowie fan? - Yeah, he really likes his music. - He would really know?- Yeah.

0:41:13 > 0:41:16Best of luck. We're looking for David Bowie albums.

0:41:16 > 0:41:20This was the answer you had most faith in to be pointless.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22Pin Ups, we are saying.

0:41:22 > 0:41:27Is it right and if it is, how many people said it? Pin Ups...

0:41:29 > 0:41:31It's right.

0:41:31 > 0:41:35Firstly, it had to be right. Secondly, it has to be pointless.

0:41:35 > 0:41:40If this goes all the way down to zero, you leave here with £2,500.

0:41:40 > 0:41:42Down it goes. Still going...

0:41:42 > 0:41:45- Oh, no! - APPLAUSE

0:41:50 > 0:41:54Oh, bad luck! I was convinced that was going all the way down.

0:41:54 > 0:42:00You didn't find that all-important pointless answer, so you don't win today's jackpot of £2,500,

0:42:00 > 0:42:07which rolls over on to the next show, but you get to take home our Pointless trophy, so very well done.

0:42:07 > 0:42:09Thank you. APPLAUSE

0:42:13 > 0:42:16So, Richard... Ooh!

0:42:16 > 0:42:21Yeah, I'm so sorry. You made us a cake and that's how we repay you.

0:42:22 > 0:42:26- Can I have a punt?- You can have a punt.- Can I try...?

0:42:26 > 0:42:27Tonight?

0:42:27 > 0:42:29- OK.- Eternity?

0:42:29 > 0:42:33- OK.- Never... Take those two, anyway.

0:42:33 > 0:42:38Let's look at all the pointless answers. There are some big albums on this list.

0:42:38 > 0:42:45Black Tie White Noise was a No.1 album. Earthling and Heathen both top 10 albums later in his career.

0:42:45 > 0:42:47'Hours...' Hunky Dory, a pointless album.

0:42:47 > 0:42:53One of his most famous albums, got Life On Mars on it. Scary Monsters And Super Creeps has Ashes To Ashes.

0:42:53 > 0:42:59- There we are.- Tonight would have won you the jackpot.- Scary Monsters and Hunky Dory on the...

0:42:59 > 0:43:03But not Pin Ups. It's very unlucky. Well done if you got those at home.

0:43:03 > 0:43:09We have to say goodbye to you, Hannah and Jess, but thank you so much for playing.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11Thank you. APPLAUSE

0:43:11 > 0:43:16Nobody has won our jackpot today, so it rolls over to the next show

0:43:16 > 0:43:20when we will be playing for £3,500.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22CHEERING

0:43:23 > 0:43:30- Join us then to see if someone can win it. It's goodbye from Richard. - Goodbye.- And it's goodbye from me.
