0:00:20 > 0:00:23APPLAUSE

0:00:23 > 0:00:26Thank you. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:26 > 0:00:31the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test. Let's meet the players.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33APPLAUSE

0:00:36 > 0:00:40Welcome back, Leah and Sarah. You were on the show last time.

0:00:40 > 0:00:45Everyone has two chances to reach the final, this is your last one. Remind us what happened.

0:00:45 > 0:00:50It went horribly wrong, horribly wrong with aliens and moons.

0:00:50 > 0:00:54I was defeated by a moon and Sarah was taken out by an alien.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57- In the game, what happened? - LAUGHTER - We went out.

0:00:57 > 0:01:03Yeah, you did. Aliens and moons, it was a category, it was a category. Yes, science fact, science fiction.

0:01:03 > 0:01:07Not our strong point. If you could make them easier, it would be better.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10- What would you like to see come up, Sarah?- Ooh.

0:01:10 > 0:01:14Like I said before, Westlife, so I was hoping Westlife, yeah?

0:01:14 > 0:01:17Why not? For now, let's pretend yes.

0:01:17 > 0:01:24- I'm hoping Wimbledon champions.- Ooh. - Very good.- I play a bit of tennis. It would be nice to see it come up.

0:01:24 > 0:01:29- Very, very good. Welcome back to the show. It's lovely to have you back. - Thank you.

0:01:29 > 0:01:34Very best of luck this afternoon. Next we welcome Avril and Pamela. How do you two know each other?

0:01:34 > 0:01:39Pamela and I met at secondary school in second year. Far too long ago to mention the exact number of years.

0:01:39 > 0:01:44- Just last year will do. - Twinkling of an eye.- Exactly. And we've been friends ever since,

0:01:44 > 0:01:49- although Pamela, disobligingly, has just moved from Edinburgh to Glasgow.- How could she do that?

0:01:49 > 0:01:55- Pamela, how could you do that? - Well, I married somebody from the west coast. We'll blame him.

0:01:55 > 0:02:00- We blame our husbands. It's the best way.- What do you do, Avril? - I'm a chartered surveyor.

0:02:00 > 0:02:05I value commercial property, shops and offices and boring industrial units and things.

0:02:05 > 0:02:11- Very good indeed. And how about you, Pamela?- I am a pharmacist. So, pills and potions.

0:02:11 > 0:02:16- What would you like to see come up, Pamela?- Er, well, science, although not necessarily moons.

0:02:16 > 0:02:21Not science fiction, but I like science, that sort of thing, obviously with my background.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25Obviously, dispensing chemist, that's what you'd like. Avril, how about you?

0:02:25 > 0:02:29History, maybe the Tudors. That's my specialist subject.

0:02:29 > 0:02:34Very good. Welcome to the show, the pair of you. It's great to have you here. Best of luck.

0:02:34 > 0:02:39- Next we welcome Mark R and Mark W. - Hello.- Hello. - Two Marks.- Yes, indeed.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43Are they going to be top marks today? Or very low marks? You see what I've done there?

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Do you see? - Do you know what, I wouldn't have thought of that in a million years.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50- No! - LAUGHTER That is brilliant.- Yeah!

0:02:50 > 0:02:55- Can I just, a little round of applause there.- Yes! - APPLAUSE

0:02:55 > 0:03:01- Well, mark our words, we'll er... - LAUGHTER - Wahey!

0:03:01 > 0:03:04This is the gift that keeps on giving, isn't it?

0:03:04 > 0:03:09- We'll give it the best shot we can. - This'll be a running gag through the show.- I do so hope it is.

0:03:09 > 0:03:14- Mark R, what would you like to see come up this afternoon? - I'd like to see religion come up.

0:03:14 > 0:03:19My job is a church leader, I did a PGCE in RE.

0:03:19 > 0:03:25- So anything to do with religion and Christianity.- You've got all of that covered. Very good.

0:03:25 > 0:03:30- What do you do, Mark W? - I'm a project manager in a charity for the rehabilitation of offenders.

0:03:30 > 0:03:35So I work in a lot of prisons all over South Yorkshire, the county I live in.

0:03:35 > 0:03:40I manage a team supporting offenders into education, training, employment.

0:03:40 > 0:03:46Basically rehabilitating them into crime-free lives, helping them to integrate positively in society.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49It's a lot of fun. You meet a lot of interesting people.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52I bet. Will they all be watching you this afternoon?

0:03:52 > 0:03:58- Maybe, yes.- Yes. You're going to have to do well.- I know, I know. It's a lot of pressure.

0:03:58 > 0:04:03A lot of pressure. Best of luck to the pair of you. Great to have you on the show.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06Finally we have Linda and Dave. How do you know each other?

0:04:06 > 0:04:10Linda is my girlfriend, or as we say in Teesside, our lass.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13We met 18 months ago at a karaoke competition.

0:04:13 > 0:04:18- Very good. Dave, were you singing? - We both were singing. - What were you singing?

0:04:18 > 0:04:24I was singing AC-DC, and Linda sang a Tina Turner one called Simply The Best,

0:04:24 > 0:04:26- but she wasn't because she didn't win. - LAUGHTER

0:04:26 > 0:04:29- Aw!- They just didn't appreciate it.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33They were just heathens. They just don't know quality when they see it.

0:04:33 > 0:04:39- And what do you do, Linda? - I'm a prisoner custody officer. - And how about you, Dave?

0:04:39 > 0:04:43I'm a recycling operator for the local council, in other words, a green bin man.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47So you actually pick up the recycling, or do you go through it?

0:04:47 > 0:04:52We have to put the tray on, bottles in that one, cans in that, and, oh, aye.

0:04:52 > 0:04:58- So, it's a bit boring, but good for the environment. - Very good for the environment.- Yes.

0:04:58 > 0:05:02- What would you like to see come up, Dave? What your strong subject? - Punk rock!

0:05:02 > 0:05:06- Oh, brilliant!- And, not like them, I want science fiction, as well.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Very good, science fiction and punk rock.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13- And how about you, Linda? - Geography, maybe food and drink.

0:05:13 > 0:05:19- You've got all the bases covered between you.- Just about.- Fantastic. Well, very best of luck to you.

0:05:19 > 0:05:23We'll find out more about you throughout the show. There's one person left for me to introduce.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27When shopping for groceries, he tells the price of an item from the barcode.

0:05:27 > 0:05:33- He's my Pointless friend, he's Richard.- Hiya. APPLAUSE

0:05:36 > 0:05:38- Good afternoon. - Good afternoon to you.

0:05:38 > 0:05:44Should be a good show. We have one returning pair, Leah and Sarah. We didn't see much of them last time.

0:05:44 > 0:05:49- Far too little.- They didn't stay too long. We've got some smart people here. Avril wants the Tudors,

0:05:49 > 0:05:53- Pamela wants science, Mark wants religion, Sarah wants Westlife.- Whoo!

0:05:53 > 0:05:57LAUGHTER Something for everybody. And none of those things are coming up.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00But it's an interesting sign of how smart everybody is.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03Yes, indeed. We put all our questions to 100 people.

0:06:03 > 0:06:07But this is Pointless so we're after the obscure answers they couldn't get.

0:06:07 > 0:06:12For a chance to win the jackpot, our players need to score as few points as possible.

0:06:12 > 0:06:17Everyone's trying to find a pointless answer that none of our 100 people gave.

0:06:17 > 0:06:23Each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot. Now, Andy and Kim won the jackpot last time.

0:06:23 > 0:06:27- People have been winning jackpots a lot.- Yeah, there's been a rash of it.- Yeah.

0:06:27 > 0:06:32- Today's jackpot starts at £1,000. - APPLAUSE

0:06:35 > 0:06:38- Right, let's play Pointless. - APPLAUSE

0:06:41 > 0:06:46In the first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer with your partner.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50The team with the highest score at the end of the round is eliminated.

0:06:50 > 0:06:55If anyone gives me an incorrect answer, they score the maximum of 100 points. Try to avoid those.

0:06:55 > 0:07:00OK, our first category is World Geography.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04Linda, that's just what you wanted, isn't it? Decide in your pairs who goes first.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07Whoever's going first, step up to the podium.

0:07:10 > 0:07:15Let's find out what the question is. We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:07:15 > 0:07:20to name as many XYZ countries as they could.

0:07:20 > 0:07:27We're looking for any country of the world whose common English name includes the letter X, Y or Z.

0:07:27 > 0:07:33Any of those countries. By country, we mean a sovereign state that is a member of the UN in its own right.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36- Very best of luck. - Thanks very much, Richard.

0:07:36 > 0:07:41Now, Leah and Sarah, you all drew lots before the show, and this afternoon you get to go first.

0:07:41 > 0:07:48We are looking for the names of countries with an X or a Y or a Z in their name.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51OK, I'm struggling to think of a clever one,

0:07:51 > 0:07:55so I'm going to say what's in my head which is Zanzibar.

0:07:55 > 0:07:59Zanzibar you are saying. You're hoping to score as few points as possible with Zanzibar.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Zanzibar.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07Ooh! There we are.

0:08:07 > 0:08:12I just demonstrated how little I know. I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16That scores you the maximum of 100 points. Bad luck. Richard.

0:08:16 > 0:08:21- Yeah, sorry, Leah, Zanzibar is not a country, I'm afraid. Good start. - Great.- Yeah.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24It does have a Z in it.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27In fact, it's got two Zs in it. LAUGHTER

0:08:27 > 0:08:33So then, Avril, we are looking for countries with an X, Y or Z in their name.

0:08:34 > 0:08:39Yes, well, geography is not my strong point. The only country I can think of is Uruguay.

0:08:39 > 0:08:44- Uruguay.- Uruguay. So it should have a Y at the end, I hope.- Very good.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47You're hoping to score as few points as possible.

0:08:47 > 0:08:51Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Uruguay.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54Well done, it's right.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00Down it goes. Great score. Look at that!

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- Very well done indeed, Avril! - APPLAUSE

0:09:03 > 0:09:07- That's a fabulous answer. - APPLAUSE

0:09:07 > 0:09:13It's a pointless answer. It adds £250 to today's jackpot, taking the total to £1,250.

0:09:13 > 0:09:17And it scores you nothing. Very well done, Avril, brilliant.

0:09:17 > 0:09:21- Richard.- Well played, Avril. A surprising pointless answer,

0:09:21 > 0:09:26a big country but perhaps you don't think of the Y maybe. But who cares? 250 quid.

0:09:26 > 0:09:30- No arguing with that. Now then, Mark W.- Hello.

0:09:30 > 0:09:35What is the most obscure country with an X, Y or Z in its name that you can think of?

0:09:35 > 0:09:41Well, I've had a little bit of time to think about this. My wife's done quite a lot of work in Africa,

0:09:41 > 0:09:45so a country that's come to my mind that may not be that well-known

0:09:45 > 0:09:48which comes automatically to mind is Zaire.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53- Zaire. OK, well, Mark R is nodding at Zaire.- That's a good thing.

0:09:53 > 0:09:59You're hoping to score as few points as possible with Zaire. Let's see if it's right,

0:09:59 > 0:10:02and if it is, let's see how many people said Zaire.

0:10:05 > 0:10:09Yes. Ooh. Yes, I had a feeling that might be the case.

0:10:09 > 0:10:14Unfortunately, Zaire is an incorrect answer, which means you score the maximum of 100 points.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17That's a bit of a relief, eh?

0:10:17 > 0:10:23- Richard.- Yeah, it hasn't been Zaire for quite some time. It's the Democratic Republic of Congo now.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26I don't know what your wife is up to. LAUGHTER

0:10:26 > 0:10:31Yeah, I'm just heading off to Zaire for a couple of months.

0:10:31 > 0:10:36- Now then, Linda.- I'm sticking with Africa, as well.- OK.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39- I hope it's right. Zimbabwe. - Zimbabwe you are saying.

0:10:39 > 0:10:44Let's see if that is correct, and if it is, how many people said Zimbabwe.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47It's right.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53- 36. - APPLAUSE

0:10:57 > 0:11:00Very well done. 36 for Zimbabwe.

0:11:00 > 0:11:05- Very well played, Linda. Absolutely safe and sound. Formerly Southern Rhodesia.- OK.

0:11:05 > 0:11:11We're halfway through the round so let's look at the scores. Brilliant answer, Uruguay, from Avril.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14Then we go up to 36 for Linda and Dave for Zimbabwe.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18And then Mark W and Leah, both on 100. So Sarah and Mark R,

0:11:18 > 0:11:23you are going to tussle it out on the next pass.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26We come back down the line. Second players, take your places.

0:11:30 > 0:11:37OK, we are looking for countries with the letter X, Y or Z in their name. Dave.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39Well, I had a few in my head I wasn't sure about,

0:11:39 > 0:11:42but the girls gave me an idea for another one.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44- Paraguay.- Paraguay.

0:11:44 > 0:11:48Very good. Paraguay you are saying. There's your red line.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51Below that, you are through to the next round.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Let's see if Paraguay is right, and if it is, how many people said it.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57Very well done.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Through you go, brilliant!

0:12:02 > 0:12:0814. Nothing wrong with that at all. Takes your score up to a nice round 50. Richard.

0:12:08 > 0:12:14One of only two landlocked countries in South America, fact fans, along with Bolivia.

0:12:14 > 0:12:19- Thank you very much, Richard. Mark R, the pressure really is on you here.- Certainly is.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21I've been debating between a couple,

0:12:21 > 0:12:26but I'm going to have to go for the one that I think will be pointless,

0:12:26 > 0:12:30so I'm going to go for Azerbaijan.

0:12:30 > 0:12:34- Azerbaijan you're saying. Sarah is nodding.- Yeah.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37- Mm. Was that one you had? - It's one possible.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40- Ohh!- Azerbaijan.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43- It might be 100. - I've only just learnt to say that.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46- Taught by Mark, in fact, just now. - Yeah.

0:12:46 > 0:12:51Azerbaijan. OK, well, there's no red line for you because you are the joint high scorers.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54Let's see how far Azerbaijan can take you down the column.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57Azerbaijan. Is it right? How many people said it?

0:12:58 > 0:13:00It's right.

0:13:05 > 0:13:09- Oh! - APPLAUSE

0:13:09 > 0:13:12Very well done, Mark. That was what we needed from you.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16Azerbaijan scores you one, takes your total up to 101. Richard.

0:13:16 > 0:13:21Yeah, well played, Mark. A huge country with a very rich and varied history

0:13:21 > 0:13:26- but most famous for winning the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest.- Of course. - That's their big one.

0:13:26 > 0:13:29Brilliant. OK, Pamela.

0:13:29 > 0:13:33Remember, we are looking for countries with an X, Y or Z in their name.

0:13:33 > 0:13:37The great news is, you cannot lose.

0:13:37 > 0:13:42Even if you score 100 points, you will never overtake Mark R and Mark W's high score of 101.

0:13:42 > 0:13:46I have to confess, I'm very glad that we can't get knocked out,

0:13:46 > 0:13:50cos geography's not my strong suit. I was going to say Yemen.

0:13:51 > 0:13:55Yemen. Let's see if Yemen is right, and if it is, how many people said it.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58No red line for you. You are through come what may.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01It is right.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06- 27. - APPLAUSE

0:14:06 > 0:14:0927, that's a good score.

0:14:10 > 0:14:15- The Yemen, Richard.- Yeah, very well played, Pamela. Very good answer.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17- Safely through to the next round. - So, Sarah.

0:14:18 > 0:14:24The only thing that will absolutely see you through to the next round is a pointless answer.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28- Obviously, you can tie if you can find a country scoring one.- OK.

0:14:28 > 0:14:33But it's either a tie or a pointless or we have to say goodbye to you.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36- Oh, dear.- Which I think would be wrong.- It would be wrong.

0:14:36 > 0:14:41I was going to think of Yemen, as well. But I'm going to go with Swaziland.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44- Swaziland. - Yes. I hope I've spelt that right.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47Swaziland. What do you think, Leah?

0:14:47 > 0:14:53- She's got great geography knowledge usually.- Uruguay was pointless.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56- I'm hopeful.- I'm not so sure.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Only one way to find out. Swaziland, is it right?

0:15:00 > 0:15:04There is a red line, take my word for it, right at the bottom there.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08If you can hit that red line, you're through to the next round.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11Swaziland, is it right? How many people said it? Good luck.

0:15:11 > 0:15:15It's right. It's right, Sarah. Very well done.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19It has to go down to one or zero.

0:15:19 > 0:15:22- Oh, no! - APPLAUSE

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Oh, bad luck! That scores you three,

0:15:26 > 0:15:32takes your total up to a perilously high 103. Richard.

0:15:32 > 0:15:36A very, very good answer. Sorry about that. Let down by Zanzibar, unfortunately.

0:15:36 > 0:15:39Zanzibar and Tanganyika joined together to form Tanzania.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42So Zanzibar is part of Tanzania now.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45Would've scored you 19 points and seen you safely through, Tanzania.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47Tough luck. Again, a very good answer.

0:15:47 > 0:15:52Let's look at some of the pointless answers. I know some people at home will have got these.

0:15:52 > 0:15:56Kyrgyzstan, which has got a Y and a Z.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59It's the only country in the world with two of those letters.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02Guyana, also pointless. Bosnia and Herzegovina was pointless.

0:16:02 > 0:16:06Uruguay, amazingly, pointless. And the Seychelles was a pointless answer.

0:16:06 > 0:16:11Let's take a look at the most obvious answers that most of our 100 people said.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14Yemen, the third most popular answer with 27.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17Then Zimbabwe with 36.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21And right at the top of the list, Zambia with 47 points.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of round one,

0:16:23 > 0:16:27the losing pair with the highest score, Sarah and Leah.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29- Gutted.- I can't believe it! - Oh, dear.

0:16:29 > 0:16:34- Never mind. It was fun. Thank you. - Thank you.- Out in the first round last time and this time.

0:16:34 > 0:16:38- Not, I think, a true reflection... - This isn't a lucky station. - It's not.

0:16:38 > 0:16:43And nor is it, I think, a fair reflection of your obvious pointless knowledge.

0:16:43 > 0:16:47But I'm afraid that is, nonetheless, what has happened, so we have to say goodbye.

0:16:47 > 0:16:50- Sarah and Leah, brilliant. - APPLAUSE

0:16:50 > 0:16:53For the remaining three pairs, it's time for round two.

0:16:59 > 0:17:04There's only room for two pairs in the head-to-head, so one team will leave at the end of this round.

0:17:04 > 0:17:08Our category for round two this afternoon is...film.

0:17:08 > 0:17:11Decide who'll go first, who'll go second.

0:17:11 > 0:17:15And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:17:18 > 0:17:22OK, our round two question concerns...

0:17:25 > 0:17:31We're going to show you two boards of six actors and actresses with a year and we asked 100 people to tell us,

0:17:31 > 0:17:36"In which film did they play or impersonate a member of the opposite sex during that year?"

0:17:36 > 0:17:40The more obscure ones will score you fewer points. An incorrect answer scores 100 points.

0:17:40 > 0:17:44There'll be 12 actors in all, 12 films to guess. Very best of luck.

0:17:44 > 0:17:50We're looking for the names of the films in which these actors cross-dressed in the years shown.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52And we have got...

0:18:14 > 0:18:17OK, we are looking for the names of the films

0:18:17 > 0:18:21in which these actors cross-dressed in the years in brackets.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24So, Avril, what do you think about that board?

0:18:24 > 0:18:29Well, I first of all was panic-stricken, and then I've started to think of things.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33- As usual, it's to try and think of things that are obscure. - Well, indeed.

0:18:33 > 0:18:37Cos Tony Curtis is in this film and it's one of my favourite films,

0:18:37 > 0:18:41- I'm going the top one, Tony Curtis, Some Like It Hot.- Some Like It Hot.

0:18:41 > 0:18:47An excellent film. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people knew that answer. Some Like It Hot.

0:18:48 > 0:18:50It certainly is.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56- 40. Not bad. - APPLAUSE

0:18:57 > 0:19:01Not a bad answer. 40 for Some Like It Hot.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04Yeah, the wonderful Some Like It Hot from 1959.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07It's got one of the most famous closing lines in Hollywood movies

0:19:07 > 0:19:12where he finally admits he's a man and the guys says, "Well, nobody's perfect".

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Very good indeed. Now, Mark.

0:19:15 > 0:19:19Yes, well, I only knew two on the board

0:19:19 > 0:19:21and the Tony Curtis one's just gone,

0:19:21 > 0:19:25so I'm left with Robin Williams

0:19:25 > 0:19:31- and I think he was in Mrs Doubtfire. - Mrs Doubtfire you're saying for Robin Williams.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34There he is at the bottom. 1993. Let's see if that's right,

0:19:34 > 0:19:38and if it is, how many people said Mrs Doubtfire.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42It's right. Of course it is.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45- 61 though. Ooh, it's a high score. - APPLAUSE

0:19:47 > 0:19:50- 62 for Mrs Doubtfire. Richard. - Yeah, very big score.

0:19:50 > 0:19:55- Man splits up with his wife and then dresses up as a housekeeper to spend time with his kids.- There we are.

0:19:55 > 0:20:02So, Dave. We are looking for the films in which these actors cross -dressed in the years indicated.

0:20:02 > 0:20:06You're the last person to have this board so you can talk us through all the gaps there

0:20:06 > 0:20:09and then pick your favourite answer.

0:20:09 > 0:20:14Well, I should be good at this, cos I do a lot of cross-dressing.

0:20:14 > 0:20:19- Don't get worried. I'm a big fan of The Rocky Horror Show, so I get all the gear on.- I see.

0:20:19 > 0:20:24Well, I think Barbra Streisand might be in one called Yentl, but I'm not sure.

0:20:24 > 0:20:27I don't know Amanda Bynes, Gwyneth Paltrow.

0:20:27 > 0:20:32But I think the Julie Andrews one, which I'm going for, is Victor Victoria.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35Victor Victoria you are saying for Julie Andrews.

0:20:35 > 0:20:39Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people knew that answer. Sounds good to me.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42Well done, Dave, it's right.

0:20:45 > 0:20:50- Down it goes. The best score of the pass, Dave. 13. - APPLAUSE

0:20:50 > 0:20:54- 13 for Victor Victoria. Richard. - Very good answer.

0:20:54 > 0:20:56She plays a woman playing a man playing a woman.

0:20:56 > 0:21:00Let's take a look at the other answers. It's quite a tough round.

0:21:00 > 0:21:04Barbra Streisand, you're absolutely right, Dave, it was Yentl in 1983. 18.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07- Gwyneth Paltrow, do you remember that?- Shakespeare In Love.

0:21:07 > 0:21:12- That's what it was.- That's correct. Would've scored you eight points.

0:21:12 > 0:21:17And Amanda Bynes starred in a film called She's The Man. Well done if you got that. One point.

0:21:17 > 0:21:22It's loosely based on Twelfth Night. She tries to get on the football team at her high school.

0:21:22 > 0:21:27Very good indeed. Thanks, Richard. We're halfway through the round, so let's look at the scores.

0:21:27 > 0:21:32Dave and Linda looking very, very strong on 13 there thanks to Victor Victoria.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Then we go up to Avril and Pamela on 40.

0:21:34 > 0:21:39And then up once again, Mark and Mark, again, top marks.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43- Top marks.- Mark W, it's all in your hands.- It is.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45- We're clinging on.- You are. Just.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49OK, we'll come back down the line. Second players, take your places.

0:21:52 > 0:21:56OK, we're going to put six more actors on the board and here we are.

0:22:17 > 0:22:22Remember, we're looking for the films in which these actors cross-dressed in those years.

0:22:22 > 0:22:26You're trying to find the one that the fewest of our 100 people knew. Linda.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30- This is one of my weakest subjects. - OK.

0:22:30 > 0:22:35Let me put you in the picture. The Marks are on 61. They're the high scorers.

0:22:35 > 0:22:40If you can score 47 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45I can't think of anything.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50I'll have to go for Dustin Hoffman.

0:22:52 > 0:22:56I'm going to have to start pushing you.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02- I Once Was A Man. - SHE LAUGHS

0:23:02 > 0:23:08I Once Was... Listen, let's not do the confessionals now, Linda.

0:23:08 > 0:23:14- LAUGHTER - Dustin Hoffman, I Once Was A Man. OK.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.

0:23:17 > 0:23:22There's your red line, Linda. If you can get below that red line, you're through to the next round.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26Oh, bad luck, bad luck.

0:23:26 > 0:23:32Unfortunately, as you knew, that's an incorrect answer, which means you score the maximum of 100 points,

0:23:32 > 0:23:37taking your total up to 113. So, Richard, I Once Was A Man.

0:23:37 > 0:23:39I remember that evening very well. LAUGHTER

0:23:39 > 0:23:43Unlucky, Linda. But you would watch that film, wouldn't you?

0:23:43 > 0:23:46- Dustin Hoffman, I Once Was A Man. - Yeah!- Course you would.

0:23:46 > 0:23:52- I won't give you the right answer in case Mark or Pamela want to have a go.- Now, Mark.

0:23:52 > 0:23:57We're looking for the films in which these actors cross-dressed in the years indicated.

0:23:57 > 0:24:01The high scorers on 113 are Linda and Dave.

0:24:01 > 0:24:05You've been thrown a bit of a lifeline there. If you can score 51 or less,

0:24:05 > 0:24:09- you are through to the head-to-head. - Film is one of the weakest subjects for me.

0:24:09 > 0:24:14- I'm not a big film buff at all.- This is music to Linda and Dave's ears.

0:24:14 > 0:24:18Particularly cross-dressing films are not my favourite types of films.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20So I'm going to go with Cate Blanchett.

0:24:20 > 0:24:25I haven't seen the film but I remember it coming out. My dad's a big Bob Dylan fan,

0:24:25 > 0:24:29so the only stab I can have is that the film is called Dylan.

0:24:29 > 0:24:32- Dylan? - Mm. But I'm not confident on that.

0:24:32 > 0:24:37OK, well, let's see if Dylan's right, and if it is, how many people said it. Here's your red line.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40Nice and high. If you get below that red line,

0:24:40 > 0:24:44you're through to the next round. Is it right? How many people said it?

0:24:48 > 0:24:54Unfortunately, that's a wrong answer, which I'm afraid means you score the maximum of 100 points.

0:24:54 > 0:24:58Takes your total up to an unbeatable 161. Richard.

0:24:58 > 0:25:02- Dylan.- Yeah, this board is going very well, isn't it?

0:25:02 > 0:25:06Again, I won't give you the right answer in case Pamela wants to have a go.

0:25:06 > 0:25:08Phewy, Linda and Dave.

0:25:08 > 0:25:12Pamela and Avril, also phewy. Doesn't matter what you score here,

0:25:12 > 0:25:19you are still in the head-to-head. So, Pamela, talk us through the board and fill in any gaps.

0:25:19 > 0:25:23I'm struggling, I have to confess. I knew some of the answers on the first board,

0:25:23 > 0:25:26but I've looked at all of them and thought, "Hm, no".

0:25:26 > 0:25:31Dustin Hoffman, I remember the film, I remember what he looked like and sounded like,

0:25:31 > 0:25:36but I have no idea what the title is. I don't know what Guy Pearce cross-dressed in, or the others,

0:25:36 > 0:25:39so I'm going to have a complete guess, because I don't know,

0:25:39 > 0:25:42so I'm going to say John Travolta and Pulp Fiction.

0:25:42 > 0:25:46- See, that would've been fun. - LAUGHTER

0:25:46 > 0:25:50- Well, he had long hair in it, didn't he?- Yep. Yep. OK.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53John Travolta, Pulp Fiction you are saying.

0:25:53 > 0:25:59Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it. No red line cos you're through anyway.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01John Travolta, Pulp Fiction.

0:26:02 > 0:26:05No. Bad luck, Pamela.

0:26:05 > 0:26:10I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, which means you score the maximum of 100 points,

0:26:10 > 0:26:14- but you're still through to the next round. Richard. - Sorry, Pamela.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17100 points each on that board. I have to fill in all six.

0:26:17 > 0:26:22If you got all six at home, you've done particularly well. Do you want to have a go?

0:26:22 > 0:26:26- Do you know the Dustin Hoffman film? - Tootsie.- Tootsie, exactly right.

0:26:26 > 0:26:30- Would've scored you 46 points. Guy Pearce. - Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert.

0:26:30 > 0:26:34The Adventures Of Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert. Would've scored 17.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36Let's clear up the John Travolta one.

0:26:36 > 0:26:41- Erm, Hairspray.- Hairspray. Brilliant film. Would've scored 14 points.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Hilary Swank won an Oscar for her role in this film

0:26:44 > 0:26:49where she cross-dressed. From 1999, it was Boys Don't Cry. Well done if you got that. Nine points.

0:26:49 > 0:26:55Cate Blanchett, you're absolutely right, it's the Dylan film where she dresses as Dylan. Do you remember it?

0:26:55 > 0:26:58- It's I'm Not There.- Yep. - Would've scored you one point.

0:26:58 > 0:27:02Right at the top of the board, Patrick Swayze, it's a pointless answer

0:27:02 > 0:27:06so well done if you said To Wong Foo Thanks For Everything, Julie Newmar.

0:27:06 > 0:27:10A pointless answer. And very well done if you got all six. Tough board.

0:27:10 > 0:27:14He can't have made himself popular with the people whose job it is to put the letters up

0:27:14 > 0:27:18on the canopies outside cinemas. They must have been up there hours.

0:27:18 > 0:27:23- They were relieved when AI took over the next week.- Yeah. - LAUGHTER

0:27:23 > 0:27:28Thanks, Richard. At the end of round two, the losing pair with the highest score is Mark and Mark.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31- I'm Not There.- I'm not now anymore.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34Well, appropriately, yes.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38Well, bad luck. This is where we say goodbye to you, but only for this edition of Pointless.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42You'll be back next time when let's hope you go even further.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45- Meanwhile, great contestants. Thanks for playing. - APPLAUSE

0:27:46 > 0:27:50For the remaining two pairs, things get more exciting in the head-to-head.

0:27:57 > 0:28:02Very well done, Linda and Dave, Avril and Pamela, you've made it through to the head-to-head.

0:28:02 > 0:28:06Only one pair can make it through to today's final and play for the jackpot,

0:28:06 > 0:28:09which currently stands at £1,250.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11APPLAUSE

0:28:14 > 0:28:19For each question, each pair needs to give me just one answer, but you are now allowed to confer.

0:28:19 > 0:28:24Just come up with an answer that scores less than the other pair and you will win that question.

0:28:24 > 0:28:29The first pair to win two questions will be playing for today's jackpot. Let's play Pointless.

0:28:34 > 0:28:39OK, here is your first question. We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:28:39 > 0:28:44to name as many Steve Redgrave gold medal partners as they could.

0:28:44 > 0:28:47Steve Redgrave gold medal partners. Richard.

0:28:47 > 0:28:50We're looking for any of the seven men who've won a gold medal

0:28:50 > 0:28:55in partnership with Steve Redgrave. Any man who won an Olympic gold in partnership with Steve Redgrave.

0:28:55 > 0:29:02OK, thank you very much. Linda and Dave, cos you played best throughout the show so far, you can go first.

0:29:05 > 0:29:07THEY WHISPER

0:29:08 > 0:29:12Right. We're not sure about one. We'll go for a safe one, we hope.

0:29:12 > 0:29:16- Matthew Pinsent.- Matthew Pinsent, you're saying. OK, Matthew Pinsent.

0:29:16 > 0:29:21Avril and Pamela, have you got an answer?

0:29:21 > 0:29:24- Pamela's got an answer.- We've got an answer. Not one of our strong areas.

0:29:24 > 0:29:29- The only one I could think of was James Cracknell.- James Cracknell.

0:29:29 > 0:29:33OK, so we have Matthew Pinsent and we have James Cracknell.

0:29:33 > 0:29:39- What do you think, Dave?- I knew the Cracknell one but I couldn't remember his Christian name, so...

0:29:39 > 0:29:43OK, well, Linda and Dave, you've gone for Matthew Pinsent.

0:29:43 > 0:29:47Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Matthew Pinsent.

0:29:47 > 0:29:50It's right.

0:29:53 > 0:29:56Not a bad score. 36 for Matthew Pinsent.

0:29:56 > 0:29:58APPLAUSE

0:29:59 > 0:30:03And Avril and Pamela, you have gone for James Cracknell.

0:30:03 > 0:30:08Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said James Cracknell. Good luck.

0:30:09 > 0:30:11It is right!

0:30:14 > 0:30:18And it beats Matthew Pinsent. Look at that. 13 for James Cracknell.

0:30:18 > 0:30:21APPLAUSE

0:30:21 > 0:30:27Lovely low score there of 13. Beats the 36 that Matthew Pinsent scored for Linda and Dave.

0:30:27 > 0:30:31So after one question, Avril and Pamela are up one-nil. Richard.

0:30:31 > 0:30:36Very well played. There's some good obscure answers here for people who know their rowing. Let's take a look.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38Richard Budgett was a pointless answer.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41He won in the coxed fours in 1984,

0:30:41 > 0:30:43alongside Martin Cross, one point.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47Adrian Ellison was their cox, he would've scored you one. Tim Foster, two.

0:30:47 > 0:30:52Andy Holmes won two Olympic golds. He died recently, sadly. Would've scored you seven.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55James Cracknell also won two golds, 13 points.

0:30:55 > 0:30:59And Matthew Pinsent, right at the top, won four golds, three with Redgrave.

0:31:00 > 0:31:04Thank you, Richard. Here is your second question. Linda and Dave,

0:31:04 > 0:31:07you have to win this question to stay in the game.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:31:10 > 0:31:14as many members of the Munster family as they could.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17Members of the Munster family. Richard.

0:31:17 > 0:31:20We're looking for any of the five members of the TV family The Munsters

0:31:20 > 0:31:25who appeared in ten or more episodes of the TV series. No names of family pets, please.

0:31:25 > 0:31:30OK. Thank you very much. Avril and Pamela, you get to go first this time.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37Right, we're not sure. We're getting muddled up with other unusual families.

0:31:37 > 0:31:42So we're going to have to play a safe answer and say Herman Munster.

0:31:42 > 0:31:44Herman Munster. OK.

0:31:44 > 0:31:48Linda and Dave, what would you like to say?

0:31:49 > 0:31:55- I think we'll go for Eddie, the boy. Eddie Munster.- Eddie. OK, we have Herman and we have Eddie.

0:31:55 > 0:32:00Avril and Pamela have said Herman. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Herman.

0:32:00 > 0:32:02It's right.

0:32:04 > 0:32:08- Yes.- I knew it was going to be high. - As you feared, that's quite a high score.

0:32:09 > 0:32:1257 for Herman Munster.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15Linda and Dave are going with Eddie.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18It has to be right and it has to go below 57.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22It is right.

0:32:22 > 0:32:25And it keeps you in the game.

0:32:26 > 0:32:29- Very well done, Linda and Dave. - APPLAUSE

0:32:29 > 0:32:36Eddie scores 16, which means after two questions, Linda and Dave, Avril and Pamela are even on one-all.

0:32:36 > 0:32:40- Richard.- Well played, Linda and Dave. Let's look at all five.

0:32:40 > 0:32:43There are a couple that would've won it. Marilyn, the niece, four.

0:32:43 > 0:32:48Lily, the matriarch of the family, 13. Eddie on 16.

0:32:48 > 0:32:52Grandpa scored 22. The actor who played Grandpa was the same age as Lily,

0:32:52 > 0:32:57although she was his daughter. And Herman right at the top with 57.

0:32:57 > 0:33:02OK. So here is your third question. Whoever wins this question goes through to the final.

0:33:02 > 0:33:06Good luck. We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:33:06 > 0:33:14to name as many UK cities beginning with N as they could. UK cities beginning with N. Richard.

0:33:14 > 0:33:18We're looking for any of the five cities in the UK whose name begins with an N.

0:33:18 > 0:33:24By city, we mean somewhere granted official city status by the Crown. See if you can get all five at home.

0:33:25 > 0:33:31Thank you very much, Richard. So, Linda and Dave, you go first this time.

0:33:32 > 0:33:35THEY WHISPER

0:33:35 > 0:33:38We're going to go for Northampton.

0:33:38 > 0:33:41Northampton. OK, Northampton.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44Avril and Pamela.

0:33:45 > 0:33:51- You can continue conferring if you like.- We're having a debate about which one.

0:33:51 > 0:33:54We can think of Nottingham, obviously,

0:33:54 > 0:33:57and we think Norwich might be a city, as well.

0:33:57 > 0:34:03So it's choosing between those two. Nottingham I think would be quite a popular answer.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05- So what do you think? - It's up to you. I don't know.

0:34:05 > 0:34:09- You know, geography... I'm lucky to get home of an evening. - ALEXANDER LAUGHS

0:34:09 > 0:34:13Unfortunately, that is true.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15- Let's go for Norwich.- Norwich.

0:34:15 > 0:34:19Norwich. OK, so we have Northampton, we have Norwich.

0:34:19 > 0:34:25Linda and Dave went for Northampton. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said it.

0:34:26 > 0:34:28Oooh!

0:34:28 > 0:34:33Bad luck. Northampton not a city.

0:34:33 > 0:34:36Which means, Avril and Pamela, Norwich merely has to be correct

0:34:36 > 0:34:39and you are through to the final.

0:34:39 > 0:34:43Norwich. Good luck. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Norwich.

0:34:44 > 0:34:47On the ball. A city. Look at that. 81 for Norwich.

0:34:47 > 0:34:50- Very good. - APPLAUSE

0:34:54 > 0:34:57That means that after three questions,

0:34:57 > 0:35:00Avril and Pamela are through to the final 2-1.

0:35:00 > 0:35:05- Richard.- Yeah, big score of Norwich, but it doesn't matter. Northampton not a city. A very large town.

0:35:05 > 0:35:10It did apply in the millennium, when lots of towns were applying to be cities, but didn't get it.

0:35:10 > 0:35:15Northampton Town, the name of its football team. Let's take a look at all five.

0:35:15 > 0:35:19Newry in Northern Ireland was the best answer on the board, two points.

0:35:19 > 0:35:22Newport in Wales, 23. Then there's Nottingham, 58.

0:35:22 > 0:35:28Newcastle, 76. And Norwich at the top on 81. Very well done if you got all five.

0:35:28 > 0:35:33Thank you, Richard. So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, it's Linda and Dave,

0:35:33 > 0:35:36Well, that was tough. Northampton.

0:35:36 > 0:35:40- I was saying Newcastle, as well. - I know.

0:35:40 > 0:35:44- Didn't listen.- Ah, well. I was going through it mentally.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46I had all sorts of places. I had Nantwich.

0:35:46 > 0:35:51- LAUGHTER Ah, the beautiful city of Nantwich. - The city of Nantwich.

0:35:51 > 0:35:59- Yeah. Ah, well. Dave, what have you learnt? I can think of one thing you've learnt.- Northampton's a town.

0:35:59 > 0:36:02- LAUGHTER - All right, two things. Northampton is a town...

0:36:02 > 0:36:06- And Linda's no good at films. - ..and listen to Linda. But we will see you next time.

0:36:06 > 0:36:12I hope you make it to the head-to-head and even the final. Thank you for playing.

0:36:12 > 0:36:16- APPLAUSE - But for Avril and Pamela, it's time for our Pointless final

0:36:16 > 0:36:19and the chance to win our jackpot of £1,250.

0:36:25 > 0:36:32Congratulations, Avril and Pamela. You fought off the competition and won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:36:36 > 0:36:41You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot. At the end of today's show,

0:36:41 > 0:36:43the jackpot stands at £1,250.

0:36:43 > 0:36:47CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:36:47 > 0:36:51The rules are very simple. To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer,

0:36:51 > 0:36:54that's an answer none of our 100 people gave.

0:36:54 > 0:36:59We've had one pointless answer today, Avril's brilliant Uruguay in the first round.

0:36:59 > 0:37:03You only have to find one more now and you will go home with that money.

0:37:03 > 0:37:07First you have to choose a category from these three options. They are...

0:37:13 > 0:37:16- What's the lesser of the three evils, Pamela?- I don't know.

0:37:16 > 0:37:20- I might know some football teams.- I think we'll have to go for football.

0:37:20 > 0:37:25- Do you want to go for football? - I think we'll have to.- OK, we would like to choose football, please.

0:37:25 > 0:37:29Very good. You are going for football. Let's find out what the question is.

0:37:29 > 0:37:33We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:37:33 > 0:37:39as many UEFA Champions League Final host cities as they could. Richard.

0:37:39 > 0:37:43We're looking for any city which has hosted the UEFA Champions League Final

0:37:43 > 0:37:49or the European Cup Final for that, from the start of the competition to the 2011 final, please.

0:37:49 > 0:37:53OK. You have up to one minute to come up with three answers

0:37:53 > 0:37:59and all you need to win that £1,250 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:37:59 > 0:38:01Your 60 seconds starts now.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04- Do you think definitely Glasgow? - I'm sure it's been in Glasgow

0:38:04 > 0:38:09- cos I got stuck in the train station with all the fans.- I can think of obvious things like Milan.

0:38:09 > 0:38:13- I wish I had my husband here. - Glasgow. We can go for Milan.

0:38:13 > 0:38:18- It's obvious, but I can't think of anything else.- What about somewhere in Spain or Germany?

0:38:18 > 0:38:21- Yep, Spain. - It's the cities.- Barcelona.

0:38:21 > 0:38:24- Let's go for Barcelona.- I'd have thought that'd be a high one.

0:38:24 > 0:38:28How about, then... Quick, let me think. Erm...

0:38:29 > 0:38:32Gosh, what's... Ajax, where do they play? Netherlands.

0:38:32 > 0:38:36That's too hard, I can't think. OK, Glasgow, Milan.

0:38:36 > 0:38:41- Barcelona.- Maybe they won't think of Glasgow.- So it's Glasgow, Milan and Barcelona.- Yep.

0:38:41 > 0:38:46OK, you have your three answers. We'll stop the clock there. Very good indeed.

0:38:46 > 0:38:52I don't know if they're right, but very good to have reached a consensus on your three answers

0:38:52 > 0:38:58before your minute was up. We were looking for host cities of the UEFA Champions League Cup Final.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00- I need your three answers.- You say.

0:39:00 > 0:39:03Glasgow. Milan. And Barcelona.

0:39:03 > 0:39:09- Of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?- Glasgow.

0:39:09 > 0:39:14- Glasgow.- Glasgow. We'll put that last. Which is your least likely?

0:39:14 > 0:39:18- Milan, I think. - So Milan, Barcelona, Glasgow.- Yep.

0:39:18 > 0:39:21OK, let's put them up on the board in that order. And here they are.

0:39:25 > 0:39:32There they are. We were looking for host cities of the UEFA Champions League Cup Final.

0:39:32 > 0:39:39You said this was your least confident answer. You only need one pointless to win that £1,250.

0:39:39 > 0:39:44Let's see how many people said Milan. Is it right? How many people said it? Milan.

0:39:45 > 0:39:49Yes, it is right. You thought it might be right.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52You thought it might be quite a high score. We shall discover.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56Down it goes. This is your first shot at the jackpot of £1,250.

0:39:56 > 0:40:00- 20. Not bad. Not bad. - APPLAUSE

0:40:02 > 0:40:05So 20 people thought of Milan.

0:40:05 > 0:40:09That tells us something about our 100 people and what they know

0:40:09 > 0:40:14about UEFA Champions League Cup Final host cities. Unfortunately, that's not a pointless answer.

0:40:14 > 0:40:18You only have two more chances to win today's jackpot. What would you do with £1,250?

0:40:18 > 0:40:21- We'd have to hit the town, wouldn't we?- Yep. - Hit the town here in London

0:40:21 > 0:40:25- and then take nothing back with you up to Scotland?- Yes, absolutely.

0:40:25 > 0:40:31- We have too many children and too many husbands... - Exactly. I should hit the town.- Yes.

0:40:31 > 0:40:35We are looking for host cities of the UEFA Champions League Cup Final.

0:40:35 > 0:40:38Let's hope nobody said your next answer, which is Barcelona.

0:40:38 > 0:40:41This has to be right and it has to be pointless.

0:40:41 > 0:40:43This for the jackpot. Your second shot.

0:40:43 > 0:40:46Barcelona. How many people said it? Is it right?

0:40:49 > 0:40:51It is right.

0:40:51 > 0:40:56This is your second crack at that jackpot of £1,250.

0:40:56 > 0:41:00- 20 people said Milan. - APPLAUSE

0:41:00 > 0:41:0344 people said Barcelona.

0:41:03 > 0:41:08But you knew these were obvious answers. You knew that.

0:41:08 > 0:41:12- We don't know if you asked any Glaswegian people.- You never know.

0:41:12 > 0:41:15We've had Milan, we've had Barcelona.

0:41:15 > 0:41:21- But Glasgow... As you say on the car sticker, Glasgow's miles better. - Yes.

0:41:21 > 0:41:25You only have one more chance to win today's jackpot, £1,250. This is it.

0:41:25 > 0:41:28Glasgow. It's all hinging on Glasgow.

0:41:28 > 0:41:33And you are banking on people overlooking Glasgow. Let's hope so. It has to be right.

0:41:33 > 0:41:37Glasgow. Is it right? How many people said it? Good luck.

0:41:39 > 0:41:43You're absolutely right. Glasgow is a right answer.

0:41:43 > 0:41:46Now, if this goes all the way down to zero,

0:41:46 > 0:41:50you will leave here with £1,250. Down it goes... Oh!

0:41:50 > 0:41:54- Not quite into single figures. - APPLAUSE

0:41:59 > 0:42:05Well, I'm delighted to say that Glasgow is more on the map than you might have thought.

0:42:05 > 0:42:10But I'm sorry to say, you haven't managed to find that all-important pointless answer

0:42:10 > 0:42:15so you don't leave with the jackpot of £1,250, which rolls over onto the next show.

0:42:15 > 0:42:20It's the first time I've said that for about a week. But you've been fantastic contestants

0:42:20 > 0:42:24- and you get to take home our pointless trophy, so well done. - APPLAUSE

0:42:28 > 0:42:33That's tough luck. Three correct answers, though, which is more than we often get.

0:42:33 > 0:42:38There are four pointless answers. See if you got them at home. A couple of German cities.

0:42:38 > 0:42:41Bari in Italy, which hosted it in 1991.

0:42:41 > 0:42:44Berne in Switzerland, which hosted in 1961.

0:42:44 > 0:42:47Gelsenkirchen in Germany, 2004.

0:42:47 > 0:42:52And Stuttgart, which held it twice, 1959 and 1988.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54Very well done if you got those at home.

0:42:54 > 0:42:58- Thank you very much, Richard. Did you know any of those?- No.

0:42:58 > 0:43:03- No.- Oh, come on, Gelsenkirchen? - It rolls off the tongue, doesn't it? - Doesn't it?

0:43:03 > 0:43:08Oh, dear. Unfortunately, we do have to say goodbye to you, Avril and Pamela. You've been brilliant.

0:43:08 > 0:43:13- Thank you so much for playing. - Thanks.- Thank you. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:43:14 > 0:43:17Nobody's won our jackpot today, so it rolls over.

0:43:17 > 0:43:22So on the next show, we will be playing for £2,250.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:43:24 > 0:43:30- Join us next time. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
