0:00:20 > 0:00:23CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:25 > 0:00:26Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong.
0:00:26 > 0:00:32Welcome to Pointless, the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35APPLAUSE
0:00:35 > 0:00:41- So welcome Leah and Sarah. You are our first pair on the show. How do you know each other?- Hello.
0:00:41 > 0:00:45We are best friends and we also run our own company together in Bristol.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Very good indeed. And what is your company?
0:00:47 > 0:00:51It's recruitment. We are both recruitment directors.
0:00:51 > 0:00:52- Think for a second.- I had to think.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Recruitment, and we set it up together.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58- How long ago?- Seven years now.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01OK, Leah, what are you hoping will come up today?
0:01:01 > 0:01:05History would be good or some cheesy '80s music would be lovely.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Good. Sarah, how about you?
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Anything on Westlife. I love Westlife. Or cheesecakes.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15- Richard's not looking hopeful. - Westlife or cheesecakes.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- I think that's a no.- Um... - Can you just check?
0:01:18 > 0:01:21- I'll take a little look. - Nothing on classical music.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24We have got cheesecakes, but no Westlife.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26We're in, we're in!
0:01:26 > 0:01:29What's your favourite kind of cheesecake? I'm starving.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- Don't bake it, cos that's all wrong. - I wasn't going to.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36I'm not very good at cooking. I just like eating them.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Great to have you on the show. Welcome to Pointless.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43Best of luck this afternoon. And next, we welcome back Ian and Grant.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47You've been on the show before. Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50This is your second chance. Now, remind us what happened.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Last time you managed to find one of my many weak topics, film.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57I don't know a lot about Ewan McGregor and it cost us in the end.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00It was tight, went to a tie-break. Good telly for you, bad for us.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Hoping to improve today.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04How would you be on cheesecake if that came up?
0:02:04 > 0:02:08Possibly better on cheesecake than Ewan McGregor, but wait and see.
0:02:08 > 0:02:14- I think I'd be good on cheesecake. If I'm honest, I just LIKE cheesecake.- Yes, see?- There we are.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16It's the same on every subject on this show.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19I don't know anything. I just like things.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21I'd like to ask you a question, Alexander, if I may?
0:02:21 > 0:02:24I'm going to grant you that permission.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28I was just wondering, my mother's maiden name was actually Armstrong.
0:02:28 > 0:02:29Get out of town(!)
0:02:29 > 0:02:32There is a slight possibility you might be a long lost relative.
0:02:32 > 0:02:38- Is there any way I could get some birthday or Christmas presents for the last 27 years?- Or a few points?
0:02:38 > 0:02:41That's a very good point.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44That is a terrible oversight on my behalf.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46I can only apologise, Grant.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49What sort of things do you like?
0:02:49 > 0:02:52- I need new football boots for next year.- OK, fair enough.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Holiday maybe.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57- OK.- I'd love it if you bought Grant a pair of new football boots.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59I would, as well.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Well, your old long lost cousin...
0:03:03 > 0:03:04probably won't.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07There we are. Great to have you back. Best of luck this afternoon.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11- Thank you very much.- Thanks.- Next, we welcome back Vicky and Hannah.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15You've also been on the show before. Remind us what happened with you.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18My mum went and got it all wrong in the head-to-head.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21Vicky!
0:03:21 > 0:03:22Not much pressure.
0:03:22 > 0:03:26Hannah says she will put me in a home if I get a question wrong.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28LAUGHTER
0:03:28 > 0:03:32So I'm going to disinherit her now cos I got it wrong.
0:03:32 > 0:03:38Swings and roundabouts, isn't it? Disinherited. Put her in a home. Can't really lose, can you?
0:03:38 > 0:03:41It's just lovely to see the love between a mother and daughter.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- A very strong team, though. - It's lovely.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47What would you love to come up this afternoon?
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- What would be a brilliant category to set you up?- For me, Highway Code.
0:03:50 > 0:03:51I'm learning to drive.
0:03:51 > 0:03:55- So you're really good on it now then?- Well, I passed my theory.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59- You passed? Very good.- I passed my theory but not my practical yet.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- I've only been learning two years. - Very soon.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04HE LAUGHS
0:04:04 > 0:04:09Very best of luck with Pointless this afternoon and with the practical driving test.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Great to have you back on the show. Welcome.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14And finally, we've got Andy and Kim. How do you two know each other?
0:04:14 > 0:04:17We met over a Prince t-shirt in the local gym.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20What, it was just on the floor?
0:04:20 > 0:04:23No, it was actually on my back at the time.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25The Prince T-shirt brought you over?
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Yeah, I saw him at the gym a few times and felt it was my duty,
0:04:28 > 0:04:31as a Prince fan, to make conversation with Andy.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32We got together.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35We found romance through Prince.
0:04:35 > 0:04:36Very good.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40- Can I just say, Prince, not a big fan.- You aren't?
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Not a big fan.
0:04:42 > 0:04:43- No, really?- There you go.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Come on.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47What you going to do?!
0:04:47 > 0:04:49We'll talk later.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53- I think you just misunderstand him. - Name two good Prince songs.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56- Can't be done.- Two good Prince songs? - Yeah.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59- Oh, he can't do it.- I could! - You can't do it.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03- We've got to move on. - Raspberry Beret, I'd kick off with.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06- Raspberry Beret. - Raspberry Beret is a cracking song.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Lovesexy is a great song.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Yeah.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Gett On.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13- Off.- Off, rather!
0:05:13 > 0:05:16LAUGHTER
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Gett off.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21It's cracking. It's a great song.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Do you know what, let's agree to disagree.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27OK. Anyway, very, very best of luck.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30It's great to have you on the show, Andy and Kim.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33We'll find out more about you all, obviously, as the show goes on.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35There's only one person left to introduce.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37If life was a game of Top Trumps,
0:05:37 > 0:05:41he'd beat you on knowledge, wit, height and, of course, obscurity.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43He is my Pointless friend, Richard.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Hiya.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47APPLAUSE
0:05:49 > 0:05:54Two returning pairs today. Ian and Grant didn't cover themselves in glory last time.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58Certainly Ian didn't. They may do a little bit better. Vicky and Hannah.
0:05:58 > 0:06:03Obviously Vicky is under enormous pressure, given what's going to happen to her if they lose.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05They were a very strong team last time.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07So I think they might do well again.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10And Sarah, some quiz show advice, be a bit more bubbly.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12LAUGHTER
0:06:12 > 0:06:14Do you know what I mean, though?
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Some people can be a bit dour.
0:06:16 > 0:06:17You just need to...
0:06:19 > 0:06:21I can do serious.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Don't do serious. Remain exactly as you are.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Thanks, Richard. We put questions to 100 people before the show but this is Pointless.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31We are after the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:06:31 > 0:06:36To stay in the game and win our jackpot, you need to score as few points as possible.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41That's an answer none of our 100 people gave.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Each time it happens we add £250 to the jackpot.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47Andy and Claire won the jackpot last time
0:06:47 > 0:06:49so today's jackpot starts off at £1,000.
0:06:49 > 0:06:50There it is.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52APPLAUSE AND WHOOPING
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Right, let's play Pointless.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05OK, in the first round, each of you must give me one answer
0:07:05 > 0:07:07and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Whichever team has the highest score at the end is eliminated.
0:07:10 > 0:07:16If anyone gives an incorrect answer they will score the maximum of 100 points, so avoid those if you can.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19In this round, we show you two related question categories.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22The first category will be played on the first pass going up the line
0:07:22 > 0:07:26and the second will be played on the second pass coming back down.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29As always, it's crucial who goes first and who goes second.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Let's reveal those two categories, and they are:
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Can you all decide now in your pairs who's going first and second?
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51OK, let's find out what our first question is in that first category.
0:07:51 > 0:07:57We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many moons of the solar system as they could.
0:07:57 > 0:07:58Moons of the solar system.
0:07:58 > 0:08:04- Richard.- Yeah, the correct answers on this board will be moons that orbit planets of our solar system.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08The incorrect answers won't be moons as of April 2011.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Leah and Sarah, you all drew lots before the show
0:08:12 > 0:08:15and this afternoon you get to go first.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19You'll be pleased to hear for each question we give you a choice of seven possible answers on the board.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Here is your first list of seven.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33I'll read those one more time.
0:08:38 > 0:08:44I can tell you that at least one answer is pointless, but be careful because at least one is incorrect.
0:08:44 > 0:08:49Pick an incorrect one and you score the maximum 100 points. Now, Leah.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52It's nice having a list of seven to choose from.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54- I would be in trouble if I didn't have that.- Yeah.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57I'm going to say Europa.
0:08:57 > 0:09:03You're saying Europa. Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said Europa.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05It's right. Very well done, Leah.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09Down it goes.
0:09:09 > 0:09:1013. That's a great answer.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16Very well done. 13 for Europa.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19Well done, Leah. A very good start to the show. Well done.
0:09:19 > 0:09:24It was one of Jupiter's largest moons discovered by Galileo in 1610.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30- Ian, we're looking for moons in the solar system.- Yes.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32What do you think?
0:09:32 > 0:09:36A couple of names I recognise back from school days, but I'm not sure.
0:09:36 > 0:09:40So I'm going to take a little bit of a punt on Sponde.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Sponde, let's see if that's right,
0:09:42 > 0:09:45and if it is, let's see how many people said Sponde.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49It's right.
0:09:55 > 0:09:56Very well done. Look at that.
0:09:59 > 0:10:04That is a pointless answer. It adds £250 to today's jackpot.
0:10:04 > 0:10:09It takes the total to £1,250 and it scores you nothing.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Well-played, Ian. Another satellite of Jupiter
0:10:12 > 0:10:15discovered into 2001. That's a better start than last time.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19- It's a relief to answer something right while I'm here!- Well done.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Very well done indeed, Ian.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24So, Hannah, moons of the solar system.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28I'm thinking most of the planets are named after gods
0:10:28 > 0:10:30so I'm thinking Janus.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Janus, OK?
0:10:34 > 0:10:35Is it right?
0:10:35 > 0:10:37It's probably not.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40How many people said Janus? Good luck.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46It's right. Very well done, Hannah.
0:10:51 > 0:10:55Very well done indeed. Brilliant answer.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Scores you one.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59One for Janus.
0:10:59 > 0:11:04Well played, Hannah. Janus is the Roman god of doorways and beginnings
0:11:04 > 0:11:08and Janus the moon is a potato-shaped moon circling Saturn.
0:11:08 > 0:11:12- How delicious.- It rather depends on the shape of the potato, doesn't it,
0:11:12 > 0:11:16- if it's potato-shaped? - Yeah, yeah, true.
0:11:16 > 0:11:17Thanks very much, Richard.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20We are looking for moons of the solar system, Kim.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23You are the last person to have this selection of moons.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27So why not talk us through them and submit one at the end?
0:11:27 > 0:11:29I'd love to talk you through them
0:11:29 > 0:11:33but this is the worst subject for me so I have no idea at all.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36But if I was playing this at home...
0:11:36 > 0:11:39Andy will kill me, but I'm going to say Margaret...
0:11:40 > 0:11:43- Andy... - ..for no reason at all.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47I don't know how to describe Andy's face. That's...
0:11:47 > 0:11:50It sounds so obviously wrong that it has to be right, surely?
0:11:50 > 0:11:53I would really like there to be a moon Margaret.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55I just... That would be lovely.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58Margaret, is it right? And if it is, how many people said it?
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Very best of luck, Kim.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04It's right!
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Very well done.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09This deserves to go a long way down.
0:12:09 > 0:12:10And it does!
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Look at that. Very well done, it's a pointless answer.
0:12:13 > 0:12:20That's another £250 to today's jackpot, taking the total to £1,500.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24It also scores you nothing and hearty congratulations.
0:12:24 > 0:12:25Very well done. Margaret.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Very well played, a risk worth taking.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31It's a small move of Uranus and is named after Margaret,
0:12:31 > 0:12:33the hero in Much Ado About Nothing.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Let's take a look at the rest of the answers.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Titan, yeah, that is a moon of Saturn.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40That would have scored you a fairly hefty 31 points.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Calypso, also a moon of Saturn would have scored one point.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45By process of elimination, Nelson is the wrong answer.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48The Arsenal striker, Sammy Nelson, once famously mooned
0:12:48 > 0:12:51after scoring a goal. Got in a lot of trouble for it.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54So very well done at home if you said Sponde or Margaret.
0:12:54 > 0:12:55Both pointless answers.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59Thank you very much, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Let's take a look at the scores as they stand.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Kim and Andy on nothing, Ian and Grant on nothing,
0:13:04 > 0:13:08two fantastic answers/guesses from them.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Then up just one point to Hannah and Vicky on one.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14And who would have thought,
0:13:14 > 0:13:17you are 13 times your nearest rival in terms of score.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20It's lucky Sarah's so confident with science fiction.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22No, that's not going to happen.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:13:28 > 0:13:31OK, for the second pass, the category is science fiction.
0:13:31 > 0:13:35Let's see the question. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name:
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Alien races, Richard.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44Yeah, the correct answers on this board will all be fictional
0:13:44 > 0:13:47non-human races from TV and film.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49OK. As with the first pass,
0:13:49 > 0:13:52we're going to give you a choice of seven possible answers.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54And here is your list of seven.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05I will read those one more time.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14I can tell you that at least one of those answers once again
0:14:14 > 0:14:18is pointless and at least one of those answers is incorrect.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21Try and avoid the incorrect ones or you'll score 100 points.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Andy, looking very good on nothing there,
0:14:24 > 0:14:27thanks to Kim's brilliant answer of Margaret in the first pass.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31- Yeah, I'm very proud of her. - I think you should be.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34I had absolutely no faith in her but I'm very proud of her.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Did you choose the category or did Kim?
0:14:36 > 0:14:39- I think I did. - You chose science fiction.
0:14:39 > 0:14:44I bottled it a little bit, I went, "Science fiction."
0:14:44 > 0:14:46OK. Well, we are looking for alien races.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48How are you feeling now?
0:14:48 > 0:14:52I think there was a film a long time ago starring Dan Ackroyd...
0:14:52 > 0:14:54called Coneheads.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56I think I'm going to take Coneheads.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Here's your red line. It's quite a long way down.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01Coneheads has to get you below that red line
0:15:01 > 0:15:03if you are to be certain of a place in the next round.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Let's see if it is right and if it is,
0:15:05 > 0:15:08let's see how many people said Coneheads.
0:15:08 > 0:15:09It's right.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Down it goes. You've done it.
0:15:15 > 0:15:16Very well done, Andy!
0:15:20 > 0:15:24One point for Coneheads takes your total up to one. Richard.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Very well played and a very good score as a team.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29From 1993, absolutely right, starred Dan Ackroyd,
0:15:29 > 0:15:32aliens called Coneheads, they had cones on their head.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35That's where they got their name from.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Very good. Vicky, you're on one.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40The high scorers are Sarah and Leah on 13 which means
0:15:40 > 0:15:44you want score 11 or less to be sure of a place in the next round.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47I was going to go for Coneheads. You stole it!
0:15:49 > 0:15:52But the one I'm thinking of, I think it is Captain Scarlet
0:15:52 > 0:15:53and the Mysterons.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56You are saying Mysterons. There they are, top of the board.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Let's see if it's right.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00If it is, how many people said Mysterons?
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Very well done indeed.
0:16:16 > 0:16:17Very well done indeed.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20That scores you three, takes your total up to four.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Well done, Vicky, you live to fight another day.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25Yeah, the Mysterons from Captain Scarlet. Absolutely right.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28They are Martians intent on taking over the world.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32Very well done, Vicky. Grant, you're on nothing thanks to
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Ian's answer of Sponde in the first round.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37The high scorers are still Sarah and Leah.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40It's getting a little bit critical.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44Grant, if you can score 12 or less with your answer,
0:16:44 > 0:16:46you're through to the next round.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50I know an obvious one but it's definitely not going to score me
0:16:50 > 0:16:52so I'm going to have to take a bit of a gamble.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54I think I remember a film
0:16:54 > 0:16:57and I think they contained the Spaceballs.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58That will be my answer.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00The Spaceballs.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04OK. Good luck, Grant, good luck Sarah and Leah.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Here's your red line.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10If you go below that red line, you are through to the next round.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12And we say goodbye to Sarah and Leah.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16Spaceballs, is it right? How many people said it? Spaceballs.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18It's right.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Well done, Grant.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24And you are through to the next round.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26And it's pointless!
0:17:28 > 0:17:31That adds another £250 to today's jackpot.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33It takes the total to £1,750.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35It scores you nothing.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37It leaves your total at nothing. Very well done.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Well played, Grant.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42Double pointless as well, you chose your category well.
0:17:42 > 0:17:47Well played, tactically. From Mel Brook's 1987 film, Spaceballs.
0:17:47 > 0:17:48Sarah.
0:17:48 > 0:17:49What can I say?
0:17:49 > 0:17:52- I'm sorry...- Nothing.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56I'm very, very, very sorry. You haven't even submitted an answer
0:17:56 > 0:17:58and I'm afraid your total is already too high.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01It's the most extraordinary low-scoring round,
0:18:01 > 0:18:02it has to be said.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Look, one, four, zero and 13.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09Talk us through the board. There might be another pointless answer.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Obviously not Klingons, that's a no-no.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17I think Grockles is from the British Isles somewhere...
0:18:17 > 0:18:20I don't know, maybe I'm getting it wrong.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23Nibblonians, I don't think so.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25My heart says go with Kotto.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- Which one do you want to submit? - I would say Kotto, please.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31"Koe-tto", Kotto. OK.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Let's see. Kotto, is it right?
0:18:33 > 0:18:35And if it is, let's see how many people said it. Kotto.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40No!
0:18:40 > 0:18:42- That's just... - Adds to the humiliation!
0:18:42 > 0:18:46Unfortunately Kotto is an incorrect answer which means you score
0:18:46 > 0:18:49a maximum of 100 points taking your total up to 113.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51Richard.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53Sounded so wrong, it actually was wrong.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57Yaphet Kotto is an actor who played the chief engineer in Alien.
0:18:57 > 0:18:58Oh, yes.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01Is there a place in the British Isles called Grockles?
0:19:01 > 0:19:03No, that's what the tourists are!
0:19:03 > 0:19:04That's the right answer.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08Grockles is an English word for tourists or outsiders.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10So that is an incorrect answer.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12The Klingons, you were right to avoid,
0:19:12 > 0:19:15would have scored you a fairly hefty 45.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19There was another pointless answer on the board and it was Nibblonians,
0:19:19 > 0:19:23who were one of the many alien races from Matt Groening's Futurama.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Very well done if you said Nibblonians at home.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Thanks very much. So at the end of round one, the losing pair
0:19:28 > 0:19:31with the highest score, it's Leah and Sarah.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Such a shame to be saying goodbye to you. Far too soon,
0:19:34 > 0:19:37but we will see you again next time when I'm sure you will go
0:19:37 > 0:19:41a lot further than the first round. Thanks for playing, Sarah and Leah.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46For the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54Obviously there is only room for two pairs in the head to head
0:19:54 > 0:19:58so one of the teams in front of me now will be leaving us at the end
0:19:58 > 0:20:01of this round. Our category for round two this afternoon is...
0:20:01 > 0:20:02words.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06Can you all decide who's going to go first and who's going to go second?
0:20:06 > 0:20:09And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16OK, our round two question concerns...
0:20:18 > 0:20:22Words made up of double sets of letters. Richard.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25I'm going to give you a series of clues which will lead you
0:20:25 > 0:20:28to a word which uses the same set of letters twice.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32If we were to say the yellow Teletubby, the answer would be Lala.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36Or if we were to say buy a Prince album the answer would be no-no.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42We are going to show you six on each pass.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45We've asked 100 people to tell us the words these clues refer to.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48The more obscure your answer, the fewer points you will score.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52If you give an incorrect answer, you're going to score 100 points.
0:20:52 > 0:20:5512 in all, 12 words which have repeated letters. Best of luck.
0:20:55 > 0:21:00We're looking for words made up of repeated sets of letters like Lala.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03OK, here are the clues. The first six are...
0:21:22 > 0:21:24I'll read those all one more time.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Kenyan uprising of the 1950s,
0:21:26 > 0:21:27French high-kicking dance,
0:21:27 > 0:21:30quiet utterance or heart irregularity,
0:21:30 > 0:21:32jelly produced from seaweed,
0:21:32 > 0:21:34had a 2009 number-one hit with Bad Romance,
0:21:34 > 0:21:36Herge's hero.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39OK, there are your six clues. Grant.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42As always, you are trying to find the one the fewest
0:21:42 > 0:21:44of our 100 people could answer.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47I'm going to have to play reasonably safe.
0:21:47 > 0:21:51I think I'm going to go for a quiet utterance or heart irregularity.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53And I'm going to say murmur.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57Murmur. If that is right, let's see how many people said murmur.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Well done.
0:22:05 > 0:22:0720.
0:22:09 > 0:22:13Nothing wrong with that. 20 for murmur. Richard.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15Good answer, Grant. Good start to the round as well.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17It's an onomatopoeic word, murmur.
0:22:19 > 0:22:20Hannah.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Hannah, Hannah.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24We come to you.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27I'm racking my brains for all sorts of things here that just...
0:22:27 > 0:22:30it's not happening and the only couple I can think of
0:22:30 > 0:22:32would be very obvious.
0:22:32 > 0:22:36So I think I'm going to have to pick a French high-kicking dance
0:22:36 > 0:22:37and it is a can-can.
0:22:37 > 0:22:38Can-can.
0:22:38 > 0:22:43Let's see if can-can is right and if it is, how many people said can-can?
0:22:43 > 0:22:45It's right.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51Oh, it's a high score but it's right though.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53A lot better than 100.
0:22:53 > 0:22:5562 for can-can, Richard.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Well played, Hannah.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59Damage limitation getting 62 points,
0:22:59 > 0:23:02from the French for noise or disturbance. Can-can.
0:23:02 > 0:23:03Kim.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06We are looking for the words with double sets of letters
0:23:06 > 0:23:09that are described by these clues.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11OK, this is like the moon question.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14I cannot fill in many of them so I think,
0:23:14 > 0:23:17although it does seem like a while ago, I think I have to go with
0:23:17 > 0:23:21had a 2009 number one with Bad Romance
0:23:21 > 0:23:23and say Gaga. Lady Gaga.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25OK, you are saying Gaga.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Let's see if that is right
0:23:27 > 0:23:30and if it is, how many knew that answer. Gaga.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35It's right.
0:23:36 > 0:23:3850.
0:23:43 > 0:23:4550 for Gaga.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Well done, Kim. She's got more Facebook
0:23:47 > 0:23:49followers than President Obama.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52And she went to school with Paris Hilton. Imagine that school.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56Let's fill in the rest of the board, shall we?
0:23:56 > 0:23:59- Herge's hero is...- Tintin. - Tintin.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02Would have scored you 26.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06The Kenyan uprising of the 1950s was the Mau Mau uprising. 10 points.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08The jelly produced from seaweed,
0:24:08 > 0:24:11the best answer on the board, is agar agar.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14Very well done if you said that at home.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18Nine points for that. That's the best answer there.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21It's what you get if you play a Lady Gaga song backwards.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27OK, let's take a look at the scores as we are halfway through the round.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29The best score so far, Grant and Ian.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32That was a fantastic answer with murmur.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36Then up to 50 for Kim and Andy with Gaga.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Up to 62 for Hannah and Vicky with the can-can.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Yes, Vicky, you're going to have to find a really good,
0:24:41 > 0:24:44low scoring answer if you're going to make it through
0:24:44 > 0:24:47to the head to head. Coming back down the line,
0:24:47 > 0:24:51can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:24:51 > 0:24:53OK, we are going to put six more clues on the board
0:24:53 > 0:24:56and we have got...
0:25:11 > 0:25:13I'll read those one more time.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27Remember we're looking for words made up of double sets of letters.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29Repeating sets of letters.
0:25:29 > 0:25:33You're trying to find the one that the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35Andy, you're on 50.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39The high scorers on 62 are Vicky and Hannah. If you can score 11 or less,
0:25:39 > 0:25:43you are definitely through to the head-to-head.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46What are you thinking, is this a good category for you?
0:25:46 > 0:25:50I'm tending towards the prison in New York State,
0:25:51 > 0:25:57which I've got a sneaking suspicion might be called Sing Sing.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00Sing Sing, sounds good to me.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02OK, here's your red line coming in. There it is.
0:26:02 > 0:26:06If you get below that red line you're definitely through to the head-to-head.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08Let's see if it's called Sing Sing, this prison.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12If it is, let's see how many people said Sing Sing. Good luck, Andy.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15He's right!
0:26:19 > 0:26:2022, not a bad score at all.
0:26:22 > 0:26:2422, takes your total up to 72.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30- Richard, Sing Sing?- Yeah, well played, Andy. You're in a fairly strong position there.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33It's in the town of Ossining in upstate New York.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35Very good.
0:26:35 > 0:26:40Now then, Vicky. The high scorers are now Andy and Kim on 72,
0:26:40 > 0:26:43which means if you can score nine or less,
0:26:43 > 0:26:45you are definitely through to the head-to-head.
0:26:47 > 0:26:48What are you thinking?
0:26:48 > 0:26:52I'm thinking there's two quite high ones there.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55Erm...there's two I don't know.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57The one I'm going for is the North African semolina dish
0:26:57 > 0:27:00and I'm going to say couscous.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03Couscous? Is that right?
0:27:03 > 0:27:06How many people said couscous?
0:27:06 > 0:27:08Well done, it's right.
0:27:12 > 0:27:16Oh! Not bad at all. 19.
0:27:18 > 0:27:2219 for couscous takes your total up to 81. Richard.
0:27:22 > 0:27:26Good score, not quite good enough. We'll see what happens in the last question.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29Yes, a granulated semolina. Couscous.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Ian, you and Grant are on 20.
0:27:31 > 0:27:35The high scorers currently Vicky and Hannah on 81, which means
0:27:35 > 0:27:40if you can score 60 or less, you are through to the head-to-head.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42Erm...
0:27:42 > 0:27:45The only one I'm going with is the bottom one. I'm going to say, Tutu.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48Tutu.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50Former Archbishop of Cape Town.
0:27:50 > 0:27:55Let's see if Tutu is right and let's see if Tutu being right
0:27:55 > 0:27:58can score low enough to get you through to the next round.
0:27:58 > 0:27:59How many people said Tutu?
0:28:06 > 0:28:10Yep! You're through! 46, just.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Takes your total up to 66. Richard.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17Well done, Ian. Archbishop Desmond Tutu, of course.
0:28:17 > 0:28:21Let's take a look at the rest of them.
0:28:21 > 0:28:25Everyone knew Simon Le Bon's group, Duran Duran. That would've scored 51.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27The alternative name for papaya, do you know that?
0:28:27 > 0:28:31- Pawpaw. - Pawpaw would have scored you seven.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34The best answer on the board is the North African people,
0:28:34 > 0:28:36essentially a group of people
0:28:36 > 0:28:40who live along the coast from Egypt to the Atlantic. They are the Berber people.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43- Oh, yes, Berbers.- Two points. Very well done if you said that.
0:28:43 > 0:28:47OK, thank you very much, Richard. So, at the end of round two,
0:28:47 > 0:28:52the losing pair with the highest score, I'm afraid, Hannah and Vicky.
0:28:52 > 0:28:57You're done so well, through to the head-to-head and a very, very close fought
0:28:57 > 0:28:59head-to-head last time.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02This time, I'm afraid, round two has done for you.
0:29:02 > 0:29:04- It's swings and roundabouts.- It is.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06You've been fantastic contestants. Thanks for playing.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09- Thank you.- Thank you.
0:29:10 > 0:29:14For the remaining two pairs, more excitement now as we enter the head-to-head.
0:29:21 > 0:29:24Very well done, Ian and Grant and Andy and Kim,
0:29:24 > 0:29:26you've made it to the head-to-head.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Only one pair can make it through to today's final
0:29:29 > 0:29:33and play for the jackpot which currently stands at £1,750.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42For each question, each pair needs to give me one answer. You are allowed to confer.
0:29:42 > 0:29:46All you have to do is come up with an answer that scores less than the other pair
0:29:46 > 0:29:49to win that question. The first pair to get two questions
0:29:49 > 0:29:54will be playing for today's jackpot. Let's play Pointless.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04OK, here is your first question. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name:
0:30:10 > 0:30:15- Richard... - We're looking for any single released by Madonna or which had her
0:30:15 > 0:30:19as a named featured artist that reached the UK Top 40 prior to April 2011.
0:30:19 > 0:30:23There are a lot of singles on this list. Best of luck.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25Thanks very much, Richard.
0:30:25 > 0:30:29Ian and Grant, as you've played best so far, you get to go first.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39Yeah, I think we've got one, Alexander.
0:30:39 > 0:30:43I think it's reasonably well-known, but not our strongest suit.
0:30:43 > 0:30:45We're going for Crazy For You.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Crazy For You. OK, Crazy For You.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49Andy and Kim?
0:30:51 > 0:30:53Get Into The Groove.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56Into The Groove, would that be three words or four?
0:30:56 > 0:30:59I dunno. Erm, was Live To Tell a single?
0:30:59 > 0:31:03- I think Live To Tell was. - I don't know. - Shall we go with Live To Tell?- OK.
0:31:03 > 0:31:07- I think we'll go with Live To Tell, if we may.- Live To Tell.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10We have Crazy For You, we have Live To Tell.
0:31:10 > 0:31:16Ian and Grant with Crazy For You, let's see if that's right and see how many people said it.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20It's right.
0:31:26 > 0:31:29Wow! Ten.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34Ten for Crazy For You.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37You said it wasn't a strong suit, that's not a bad score.
0:31:37 > 0:31:40Andy and Kim have gone for Live To Tell,
0:31:40 > 0:31:44let's see if that's right and low many people said Live To Tell.
0:31:46 > 0:31:48It's right!
0:31:53 > 0:31:56Look at that, very well done.
0:31:59 > 0:32:01Live To Tell.
0:32:01 > 0:32:07- That was a high two.- Yes. - If that's a high five, that's a...? - High two.
0:32:07 > 0:32:11Well done, Andy and Kim, after one question. You are ahead, one-nil.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13- Richard. - Yeah, very good answer
0:32:13 > 0:32:16and appropriately did get to number two in 1986.
0:32:16 > 0:32:21Crazy For You, another good answer, got to number two, as well, twice in '85 and '91.
0:32:21 > 0:32:25There's a bunch of pointless answers and low scoring answers as well.
0:32:48 > 0:32:50The biggest scorers...
0:33:00 > 0:33:04Thanks very much, Richard. Here is your second question.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07Ian and Grant, you have to win this question to stay in the game.
0:33:07 > 0:33:11We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many:
0:33:15 > 0:33:18There are ten books in the Old and New Testament in the King James Bible,
0:33:18 > 0:33:22whose name begins with a vowel. Can you give us the most obscure?
0:33:22 > 0:33:25- See how many of those ten you can get at home.- Thanks very much.
0:33:25 > 0:33:29Books of the Bible whose names begin with a vowel.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32OK, Andy and Kim, you start this time.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35- Who?- Apostles. - Right. I don't know.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37- Yeah, I think so.- OK.
0:33:37 > 0:33:43- OK, Bible's not a strong point.- No! - For you?- For me.- For both of us.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45For either of us.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48We've going with Apostles which I think is a book of the Bible.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51- Apostles.- I believe so.
0:33:51 > 0:33:52Ian and Grant?
0:33:52 > 0:33:56Well, the one we're going to have to give, again...
0:33:56 > 0:34:00Probably there are some better ones but we'll have to go with Exodus.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03OK, you're going with Exodus.
0:34:03 > 0:34:05We have the Apostles.
0:34:07 > 0:34:11Let's see if that's right and see how many said Apostles.
0:34:19 > 0:34:23Very well done, 16.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29That's a good score.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31Now, Ian and Grant, you're saying Exodus.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34You have to hope that's right and it goes below 16,
0:34:34 > 0:34:36otherwise we say goodbye to you.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Very best of luck.
0:34:38 > 0:34:41Exodus, how many said it and is it right?
0:34:43 > 0:34:44It's right.
0:34:47 > 0:34:5158, 58.
0:34:55 > 0:35:00Bad luck, Ian and Grant. If you want your book of the Bible to be nice and obscure,
0:35:00 > 0:35:03try and avoid Bob Marley writing a song about it.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06It's just a little rule of thumb there.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09After only two questions Andy and Kim are through to the final.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12Straight sets, two-nil. Richard.
0:35:12 > 0:35:16Apostles or Acts Of The Apostles, it's the book after the Four Gospels.
0:35:16 > 0:35:18There's a bunch of answers that would have beaten it
0:35:18 > 0:35:21and I suspect some people at home would have got all ten.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23There's a pointless answer to start with.
0:35:33 > 0:35:36All lovely names if you're just about to have a boy!
0:35:46 > 0:35:49Very well done if you got all of those.
0:35:49 > 0:35:53So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head... I'm afraid it's Ian and Grant.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56Bad luck, guys. You've done so well.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58A double pointless in the first round.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01You really atoned for your first round exit last time round.
0:36:01 > 0:36:06- Thank you very much for playing, you've been brilliant contestants. Very well done.- Thank you.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09For Andy and Kim it's now time for our Pointless Final
0:36:09 > 0:36:13and a chance to win our jackpot of £1,750.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23Congratulations Andy and Kim, you fought off all the competition
0:36:23 > 0:36:27and you've won our coveted Pointless Trophy. Very well done.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35You now have a chance to win our Pointless Jackpot.
0:36:35 > 0:36:40At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,750.
0:36:45 > 0:36:49The rules are simple. To win, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52An answer that none of our 100 people could think of.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54We've had three pointless answers
0:36:54 > 0:36:58and Kim, you found one of those with the famous moon, Margaret.
0:36:58 > 0:37:01You only have to find one more and you'll go home with the money.
0:37:01 > 0:37:05First you have to choose a category and you can choose from these three options.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14- Not football.- Not football. Not playwrights. American actors?
0:37:14 > 0:37:17- It'll have to be.- It's got to be.
0:37:17 > 0:37:21- American actors. - It'll have to be American actors. - Let's find out what the question is.
0:37:21 > 0:37:27We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many Jeff Bridges
0:37:27 > 0:37:30films as they could. Jeff Bridges films. Richard.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33Looking for any feature film made for cinema released
0:37:33 > 0:37:37up to April 2011 for which Jeff Bridges received an acting credit.
0:37:37 > 0:37:41As always, short films, TV films, documentaries don't count.
0:37:41 > 0:37:44Voice performances do. Very best of luck.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47OK, you have one minute to come up with three answers.
0:37:47 > 0:37:51All you need to win that £1,750 is for one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53Your 60 seconds start now.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56- Did he do that Tarantino film? Was that him?- I don't know.
0:37:56 > 0:38:01- Car crashing, crashing cars into people. - No, that was Kurt Russell.
0:38:01 > 0:38:06- OK.- He did a cowboy thing where he was an alcoholic, cowboy singer.
0:38:06 > 0:38:10- I can't think of anything by Jeff Bridges.- Oh, come on.
0:38:10 > 0:38:13- I think we're going to suffer. - Did he do that trucker, he was in that lorry?
0:38:13 > 0:38:16- He was in that lorry? - That truck thing.
0:38:16 > 0:38:21What's the thing where that girl gets abducted? It was a remake of a French film.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26The Vanishing. I think he was in that.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28- I don't know.- We might have one.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30I don't know. I've no idea, Jeff Bridges.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32Jeff Bridges. Oh, good God.
0:38:32 > 0:38:36- There's going to be loads of stuff that he was in and we're just going to go...- I know.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39- Jeff Bridges.- Yeah.
0:38:42 > 0:38:45I've not got a clue. He tends to do western type things.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49Five seconds.
0:38:49 > 0:38:53- Oh my God, I don't know. - What's the one he did with...
0:38:54 > 0:38:56That's time up.
0:38:56 > 0:39:00We were looking for Jeff Bridges films and I need your three answers.
0:39:00 > 0:39:03OK, we don't have three.
0:39:03 > 0:39:09- The only thing I'm dragging from the back of my mind is a film called The Vanishing.- Mm-hm.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11I don't know 100% if he was in it.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14- That's the only thing I can think of.- We'll take that.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17Let's have two more answers from you.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21We'll say Once Upon A Time In The West and erm...
0:39:23 > 0:39:27- The Good Time Boys. - The Good Time Boys.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30OK, we have three answers there.
0:39:30 > 0:39:34- Which is your best shot at a pointless answer?- The Vanishing. - We'll put that last.
0:39:34 > 0:39:39- Which is your least likely? - Once Upon A Time In The West.- OK.
0:39:39 > 0:39:43Let's put those three answers up on the board in that order. Here they are.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51We're looking for Jeff Bridges films.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54You said this was your least confident answer.
0:39:54 > 0:39:58You only have to find one pointless answer to win that jackpot of £1,750.
0:39:58 > 0:40:03Once Upon A Time In The West, it could be right.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06Let's see if it is and how many people said it. Once Upon A Time In The West.
0:40:09 > 0:40:12No!
0:40:12 > 0:40:15- I don't think we're that surprised by that.- No.
0:40:15 > 0:40:18You have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20£1,750, what would you do with that?
0:40:22 > 0:40:24I'd like to spend it on shoes but Andy won't let me.
0:40:24 > 0:40:27Something sensible like putting it towards a new garden
0:40:27 > 0:40:33because we moved into our house a year ago and the garden is more jungle book than picture book.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36- Yeah.- Right. - Something practical.
0:40:36 > 0:40:37Yeah.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40We're looking for Jeff Bridges films.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42Your second answer was The Good Time Boys.
0:40:42 > 0:40:45This has to be pointless if you're going to win that jackpot of £1,750.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Let's see if The Good Time Boys is a Jeff Bridges film
0:40:48 > 0:40:51and how many people said it.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56No!
0:40:56 > 0:40:59Back luck. That means you have only one more chance to win the jackpot.
0:40:59 > 0:41:05However, this is an answer that I think you gave with a degree of confidence.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08There's a fine line between confidence and stupidity.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11I think we're nearly on that line.
0:41:11 > 0:41:14I think we're moving into the realm of confidence.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17We shall see, though. We're looking for Jeff Bridges films.
0:41:17 > 0:41:19You said this was the answer you had most faith in.
0:41:19 > 0:41:21It is, The Vanishing.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Let's see if that's right.
0:41:26 > 0:41:30Was Jeff Bridges in The Vanishing and how many people said it?
0:41:33 > 0:41:35It's right. It's right.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37It had to be right.
0:41:37 > 0:41:39It now just has to be pointless.
0:41:39 > 0:41:43This is your final shot at the jackpot of £1,750. Down it goes.
0:41:43 > 0:41:45Still going down, look at that!
0:41:45 > 0:41:47Oh, it is!
0:41:47 > 0:41:49What about that?
0:41:52 > 0:41:54Very, very well done.
0:41:54 > 0:41:59The Vanishing, that's a brilliant answer.
0:42:02 > 0:42:07- I can't believe it! - Wow, what about that. Brilliant!
0:42:07 > 0:42:10You didn't think that was right at all, did you?
0:42:10 > 0:42:14Wow! Congratulations. You have managed to find that all-important pointless answer,
0:42:14 > 0:42:18which means you go home with the jackpot of £1,750.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24Very well done.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28- Richard. - Well played, Andy and Kim.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30We've given away a lot of jackpots recently.
0:42:30 > 0:42:34It's very rare people only know one possible answer and it turns out to be pointless.
0:42:34 > 0:42:38What an answer to give, very well done. The Vanishing is from 1993.
0:42:38 > 0:42:40Jeff Bridges abducts Sandra Bullock.
0:42:40 > 0:42:45There's lots more pointless answers. See if you got any of these at home.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47One of the biggest flops of all time, Heaven's Gate.
0:42:47 > 0:42:51He plays an editor who employs Simon Pegg in How To Lose Friends...
0:42:51 > 0:42:54Kevin Spacey's psychiatrist in K-Pax. All of those pointless.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58Simpatico, with Nick Nolte and Sharon Stone.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00Last American Hero, he plays a stock car racer.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03The Mirror Has Two Faces, all these are pointless.
0:43:05 > 0:43:08There's The Vanishing. His very first ever film,
0:43:08 > 0:43:11The Yin And Yang Of Mr Go, where he was Jeffrey Bridges.
0:43:11 > 0:43:16All pointless answers. Well done if you got any of those. Well done for The Vanishing.
0:43:16 > 0:43:20- Thank you.- Thanks once again to our winning players, Andy and Kim,
0:43:20 > 0:43:22who go away with today's jackpot of £1,750.
0:43:28 > 0:43:33Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:43:33 > 0:43:37- It's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
