0:00:21 > 0:00:24- APPLAUSE - Thank you very much indeed.

0:00:24 > 0:00:28Hello and welcome to Pointless, the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38Now, welcome Paula and Steve, you're our first pair on the show today.

0:00:38 > 0:00:43- How do you know each other?- We met 10 years ago in a bar called Loaf.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45I went in for a sliced white and I came out with my husband.

0:00:45 > 0:00:51- How many times have you said that before?- Twice!- Very, very good.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54- How long have you been married? - Five years this week.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57- This week - just to give him a nudge to get me a present!- Wow.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59Steve, what are your hobbies?

0:00:59 > 0:01:03- Obviously, being from Manchester, I support Manchester City.- Yay!

0:01:03 > 0:01:08- Well, obviously you do.- Why not? - Obviously, a good year this year.

0:01:08 > 0:01:13- Also, I like Belgian beer.- Belgian beer.- One of my favourite hobbies.

0:01:13 > 0:01:18- That's not a hobby!- Not just looking at them, drinking them!

0:01:18 > 0:01:20Paula, what are your hobbies?

0:01:20 > 0:01:25I like to read books a lot and sleep. A vastly underrated hobby, sleeping.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28Very good indeed. We have a lot of sleep questions on this show

0:01:28 > 0:01:32- so let's hope...- So, essentially, Steve's hobby is drinking

0:01:32 > 0:01:35- and your hobby is sleeping. - That's pretty good.

0:01:35 > 0:01:38Amazing you ended up together.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Amazing. Well, very best of luck. Great to have you here.

0:01:41 > 0:01:46Welcome to the show. And next, we welcome back Annie and Nicki.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49You were on the show last time. Remind us how you did.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51We got through to the head to head, Alexander.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54You did very well on the head to head.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57Anyway, today is a new day when I'm sure we'll see you go even further

0:01:57 > 0:02:01than the head to head. What will be the categories that get you there?

0:02:01 > 0:02:03Something to do with nature.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06You'd like a few history questions, wouldn't you?

0:02:06 > 0:02:09- You'd be happy with history? - I'd be very happy.

0:02:09 > 0:02:13- Literature would be good. - Yes, that's a good topic as well,

0:02:13 > 0:02:15- or about dogs would be good.- Or dogs.

0:02:15 > 0:02:20- Dogs.- Any particular dogs?- My first and second guide dog, preferably.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23LAUGHTER

0:02:23 > 0:02:28- What are your interests, Annie? - I've got all kinds, actually.

0:02:28 > 0:02:33- But I think, in my spare time, I am a witch.- You're a witch?

0:02:33 > 0:02:36- Yeah, I'm a witch. - Do you cast spells?- I do.

0:02:36 > 0:02:40But I don't mean kind of "huzzah!" And then everyone turns into toads.

0:02:40 > 0:02:44- Oh, that's disappointing, suddenly. - It's more kind of hippie.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47Well, I'm going to be extra specially nice to you

0:02:47 > 0:02:51- now I know you're a witch. - You better watch out.- I shall.

0:02:51 > 0:02:55I'm sure you'll make it all the way to the final...

0:02:55 > 0:03:00- Nicki, do you have any interests? - I love pub quizzes.- Do you?

0:03:00 > 0:03:06- I thought you might.- Yes, hello to the Pedigree Chums, my quiz team.

0:03:06 > 0:03:10Very good. Well, the very best of luck to the pair of you.

0:03:10 > 0:03:14Great to have you back on the show. And next we welcome Drew and Lloyd.

0:03:14 > 0:03:15How do you two know each other?

0:03:15 > 0:03:19Well, I've been tortured over the last year into the husk

0:03:19 > 0:03:23you see before you, living with Mr Lloyd Harris.

0:03:23 > 0:03:24Yes, we're in university together.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27And, well, there was a bit of animosity when we met,

0:03:27 > 0:03:31because we're both part of the student union and we both tried out for the student council.

0:03:31 > 0:03:34Drew had been going for loads of meetings.

0:03:34 > 0:03:39- I went to my first ever meeting and beat Drew by one vote.- One vote!

0:03:39 > 0:03:43- And then, yeah, we lived together, so it must have...- There we are.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45So it's all fine. And where are you at university, Drew?

0:03:45 > 0:03:49- We're both at Bangor University in North Wales.- In North Wales.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53- We have lots of people watching, I'm sure, today.- Yes, loads.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57- Hello to a couple of people, the Welsh people. - And our other housemates.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59How many other housemates are there?

0:03:59 > 0:04:03- There's two. Yes.- Two others. - And a fish.- Two and a fish.

0:04:03 > 0:04:07- Anything else you want to add? - No.- What are you studying, Lloyd?

0:04:07 > 0:04:10- I'm doing Welsh and journalism. - Welsh and journalism.

0:04:10 > 0:04:14- How's it going?- Very good. I've officially finished.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17- Drew, are you about to finish too? - No, I've got one more year.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19I'm studying chemistry so, yeah, pretty cool.

0:04:19 > 0:04:23So, Drew, this afternoon, what are you hoping is going to come up?

0:04:23 > 0:04:27I'm hoping chemistry will come up, surprisingly or not.

0:04:27 > 0:04:31- Sport, maybe, politics. We'll see what happens there.- Lloyd?

0:04:31 > 0:04:35Well, I'm very much entertainment based. I'm a big Eurovision fan.

0:04:35 > 0:04:39- I'd love Eurovision to come up, love it.- Right.

0:04:39 > 0:04:43Any dancing, Strictly Come Dancing, anything like that would be lovely.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45All right, Lloyd, OK.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49Well, I hope maybe something like that might come up.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51He said it would be lovely. It'd be nice for Lloyd.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54You know what, Lloyd, I'll see what I can do,

0:04:54 > 0:04:57- seeing as you asked so nicely. - Thank you very much.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59Well, fingers crossed. Very, very best of luck.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03Lovely having you on the show. And finally, we welcome back Graham and Richard.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05You were also on the show last time.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final, of course.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12- Remind us how you did.- Got through to the end of the second round.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16End of the second round. What was it that did for you?

0:05:16 > 0:05:20- It was the rhymes, rhyming names. - Rhyming names.

0:05:20 > 0:05:24OK. So, Richard, what are you hoping is going to come up this afternoon?

0:05:24 > 0:05:27It'd be nice to see a bit of sport, maybe, and if I get it wrong,

0:05:27 > 0:05:30I will get ribbed, so I hope that comes up.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Possibly something to do with movies.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36I love my movies, a big Die Hard fan. That's my favourite film.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39OK, you've seen all of the Die Hard series?

0:05:39 > 0:05:43Yeah, got them all on DVD as well, so I'm a big fan. Sadly.

0:05:43 > 0:05:48- Anything else you'd like to see come up, Graham?- Em, music.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50- Any particular area of music? - Not really.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53I've been a mobile DJ for about 11 years.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56- Oh, so you're going to be very good. - I wouldn't go that far, no.

0:05:56 > 0:06:00Best of luck to you both. Let's hope we see more of you this time.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03We'll find out more about all of you as we go through the show.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06There's one person left to introduce. He regularly tunes into

0:06:06 > 0:06:09Radio 4's Just A Minute and he has never once hesitated,

0:06:09 > 0:06:10deviated or repeated himself.

0:06:10 > 0:06:14- He is my Pointless friend. Here's Richard.- Hiya.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17APPLAUSE

0:06:17 > 0:06:21Should be a cracking show today. We've got two returning pairs.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Annie and Nicki were strong last time, unlucky in the head to head.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27Graham and Richard, we didn't see quite enough of.

0:06:27 > 0:06:31Of the two new pairs, it can be difficult with people like Drew and Lloyd,

0:06:31 > 0:06:34when they're so quiet and keep themselves to themselves,

0:06:34 > 0:06:38it's very hard to work out if they're going to add to the occasion

0:06:38 > 0:06:42or they're just going to shrink, like weeds in the sun.

0:06:42 > 0:06:47Well, thank you for that. We put all our questions to 100 people before the show

0:06:47 > 0:06:51but this is Pointless so we're after the obscure answers they didn't get.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54For a chance to win our jackpot, all our players need to do is score

0:06:54 > 0:06:57as few points as they can. What everyone's trying to do

0:06:57 > 0:07:00is find a pointless answer, an answer that none of our 100 gave,

0:07:00 > 0:07:04and each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.

0:07:04 > 0:07:08Nobody won the jackpot last time so we add another £1,000 to that,

0:07:08 > 0:07:12so today's jackpot starts off at £5,250.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:07:17 > 0:07:20Right, let's play Pointless.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28In the first round, each of you must give me one answer

0:07:28 > 0:07:30and you cannot confer with your partner.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33The team with the highest score at the end of the round

0:07:33 > 0:07:35is eliminated. Try and make sure that's not you.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37If anyone gives me an incorrect answer

0:07:37 > 0:07:40they will score the maximum of 100 points.

0:07:40 > 0:07:45OK, our first category this afternoon is...words.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47One of those rounds, words.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second.

0:07:52 > 0:07:56And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01OK, let's find out what the first question is.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:08:04 > 0:08:09as many words ending in '...aze' as they could.

0:08:09 > 0:08:14- Words ending in '...aze', Richard. - We're looking for any word in the Oxford English Dictionary

0:08:14 > 0:08:17online edition that ends with the letters '...aze.'

0:08:17 > 0:08:20As always, no hyphenated words are allowed and no proper nouns,

0:08:20 > 0:08:23so no people's names or places, anything like that.

0:08:23 > 0:08:28Any word ending '...aze' in the Oxford English Dictionary, please.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31OK. Thank you. Paula and Steve, you all drew lots before the show

0:08:31 > 0:08:34and this afternoon, you get to go first.

0:08:34 > 0:08:38Remember, we're looking for words ending in '...aze'.

0:08:38 > 0:08:43- I might have made this up, actually. I'm going to go for deglaze.- Deglaze.

0:08:43 > 0:08:47- Fingers crossed.- Fingers crossed. Very good indeed.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50You're hoping to score as few points as possible. Is deglaze right?

0:08:50 > 0:08:52If it is, how many people said it?

0:08:54 > 0:08:57- Well done, Paula, that's a correct answer.- Yes! Phew!

0:08:57 > 0:09:01These tend to be the words that go right down.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Oh, look at that! Very well done, Paula!

0:09:03 > 0:09:07APPLAUSE

0:09:07 > 0:09:11- Brilliant. One point. - Yeah, very, very well played.

0:09:11 > 0:09:15A brilliant start. Deglaze, can mean to take the varnish off something,

0:09:15 > 0:09:19but also it's a cooking term, putting wine in a roasting tin.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22- Great start.- Very good indeed.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26Now then, Annie, words ending in '...aze'.

0:09:26 > 0:09:31For some reason I can only think of little bubbly words.

0:09:31 > 0:09:35I'm not sure what that means, but in my head it does.

0:09:35 > 0:09:40I'm going to have to go with a really obvious one.

0:09:40 > 0:09:44It's going to be haze.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Haze, you are saying. Let's see if that's right.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50If it is, let's see how many people said haze.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54It's right. 70.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56APPLAUSE

0:09:59 > 0:10:02- 70 for haze, Richard. - Yeah, pretty big score.

0:10:02 > 0:10:07Vagueness or an indistinctness. It's also a town in Middlesex.

0:10:10 > 0:10:14Lloyd, words ending in '...aze'.

0:10:16 > 0:10:20I'm not the best with words. I've only got simple ones as well,

0:10:20 > 0:10:22so I'm going to go for blaze.

0:10:22 > 0:10:26Blaze, says Lloyd. Let's see if it's right

0:10:26 > 0:10:29and if it is, let's see how many people said blaze.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31It's right.

0:10:34 > 0:10:38- 33. - APPLAUSE

0:10:42 > 0:10:46- Blaze, yeah, to burn with a bright flame. Surprisingly low score.- Yeah.

0:10:46 > 0:10:52So, Richard, remember, we're looking for words ending in '...aze'.

0:10:52 > 0:10:57- I think the best I'm going to muster is craze.- Craze.

0:10:57 > 0:11:01OK, craze. Let's see how many people said craze.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10- 48. - APPLAUSE

0:11:10 > 0:11:15- 48 for craze.- Yeah, craze. Obviously a very, very good answer.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18I don't have to tell you what it means. It's the twins who ran the East End.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20LAUGHTER

0:11:22 > 0:11:25OK, we're halfway through the round so let's look at the scores.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29Paula, the best score of the pass, very well done.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33Lovely low score of one. Then we go up to 33 for Lloyd and Drew.

0:11:33 > 0:11:37Well done, Lloyd. Then up to 48 for Richard and Graham,

0:11:37 > 0:11:40and then Annie and Nicki are on 70.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43So, Nicki, you're going to have your work cut out in this next pass

0:11:43 > 0:11:46to find a really good, obscure word ending in '...aze'.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49Best of luck with that. Coming back down the line,

0:11:49 > 0:11:52can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:11:54 > 0:11:59OK, remember we are looking for words ending in '...aze'.

0:11:59 > 0:12:03Now, Graham, the high scorers are Nicki and Annie on 70.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06You're on 48 which means that if you can score 21 or less,

0:12:06 > 0:12:09you are definitely in the next round.

0:12:09 > 0:12:14Right, OK. Plenty of time to think about it and still not much clue.

0:12:14 > 0:12:18- I'll go with glaze.- Glaze, all right.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24There's your red line. Below that, you're through to the next round.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26Glaze.

0:12:33 > 0:12:3723.

0:12:37 > 0:12:4023, taking your total up to 71. Richard?

0:12:40 > 0:12:43Another fairly low score.

0:12:43 > 0:12:48Any sort of composition, to add a sheen to any material.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50A glaze, or to glaze.

0:12:50 > 0:12:55- OK, Drew.- I think I'm lucky here with biology,

0:12:55 > 0:12:59I'm going to use a word from biology and go for helicaze.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01GASPS

0:13:01 > 0:13:03Wow.

0:13:03 > 0:13:07- Helicaze?- Helicaze. - How do you spell helicaze?

0:13:07 > 0:13:10I have absolutely no idea.

0:13:10 > 0:13:14- Spelling isn't my strong point, unfortunately.- What is helicaze?

0:13:14 > 0:13:18Helicaze is an enzyme found in DNA replication.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Duh, don't you know anything?

0:13:20 > 0:13:24I just want to know if he really knows what it is.

0:13:24 > 0:13:28- Sounds like he does. - Yeah, you passed.- Well done, Drew.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31Helicaze. Let's see if it's right,

0:13:31 > 0:13:34and if it is, how many people said it. There's your red line.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36If you can get below that red line with helicaze,

0:13:36 > 0:13:40then you're through to the next round. Very best of luck.

0:13:44 > 0:13:48Oh, bad luck, Drew! Bad luck.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,

0:13:51 > 0:13:54Which means you score the maximum of 100 points.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56Lloyd is nodding at this point.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00Would you like me to replicate it for you? It's a bit like this.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03Does it end in c, a, s, e, case, as in helicase?

0:14:03 > 0:14:06Let's find out, Lloyd. Richard?

0:14:06 > 0:14:09Yeah, your chemistry teacher will be delighted with you, Drew,

0:14:09 > 0:14:13but your spelling teacher, if you have such a thing, won't be.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15C, a, s, e, at the end. Helicase.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18You're exactly right on what it is, but you can't spell it.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20No, I can't spell.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23One of the few English words to rhyme with pillowcase.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26No, it doesn't. Helicase, pillowcase?

0:14:26 > 0:14:30- It doesn't quite work, does it? - What? Helicase, pelicase?

0:14:30 > 0:14:33You know what, I'm saying that works, yeah.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36Specially if you have a slight Latino tinge to your voice,

0:14:36 > 0:14:39which occasionally I do.

0:14:39 > 0:14:43- On an evening out. - SPANISH ACCENT:- Healocase, pealocase.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49So then, Nicki, you are on 70.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52Drew and Lloyd are the new high scorers on 133 which means

0:14:52 > 0:14:56if you can score 62 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59We're looking for words ending in '...aze'.

0:14:59 > 0:15:04Well, I've got one, and I'm thinking about sticking some letters

0:15:04 > 0:15:06in front of it to create a new word.

0:15:06 > 0:15:10So I'm either about to create a brand new word in the English language,

0:15:10 > 0:15:15you heard it here first, or I'm going to get hopefully a very low score.

0:15:15 > 0:15:20And I'm going to say unfaze.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22- Unfaze.- Yeah. I don't even know whether it exists.

0:15:22 > 0:15:26No, that's exactly how you get low points in this round.

0:15:26 > 0:15:31Let's hope unfaze will get you down below that red line. Let's see.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34Is it a word? Unfaze. And if it is, how many people said it?

0:15:37 > 0:15:40Oh, no, bad luck, Nicki.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44Bad luck, I'm afraid, unfaze is not a word.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Which means you score the maximum of 100 points.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49That takes your total up to an unbeatable 170,

0:15:49 > 0:15:52I'm sorry to say. Richard.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55Yeah, sorry Nicki, I think that's really, really tough luck.

0:15:55 > 0:15:56Probably an unnecessary risk, there.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59You can be unfazed, but you cannot unfaze somebody.

0:16:00 > 0:16:02Bad luck. Now then, Steve.

0:16:02 > 0:16:06- The good news for you is you are through, whatever happens.- I'm safe.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08Even if you score 100 points you won't overtake

0:16:08 > 0:16:10Nicki and Annie's high score.

0:16:10 > 0:16:14So, why not see if you can go one better than Paula

0:16:14 > 0:16:17and score a pointless answer?

0:16:17 > 0:16:20Remember, we are looking for words ending in A-ZE. OK.

0:16:20 > 0:16:25I've got a few decent words, like ablaze and stuff.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28But, when it first came up, and it doesn't sound like it should,

0:16:28 > 0:16:29but I'm going for kamikaze.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33- Oh.- OK, well, let's see. Kamikaze. Is it right?

0:16:33 > 0:16:36And if it is, how many people said it?

0:16:38 > 0:16:39It's right, Steve.

0:16:40 > 0:16:41It's right.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45How far down is it going to go?

0:16:46 > 0:16:47Oh, look at that.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49APPLAUSE

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Very, very well done.

0:16:51 > 0:16:55You equal Paula's low score of 1, to take your total up to 2.

0:16:55 > 0:16:56That's a great answer. Richard.

0:16:56 > 0:17:00Very well played. I was going to draw reference to kamikaze, afterwards.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03- It's my favourite word...- Sorry.- No, it's great. ..on the whole list.

0:17:03 > 0:17:05So, very, very well done.

0:17:05 > 0:17:09There's a bunch of pointless answers, here, as well.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11Let's take a look at some of them.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13Autoschediaze which,

0:17:13 > 0:17:17I don't need to tell you, means to extemporise or improvise.

0:17:17 > 0:17:21Bumbaze which is a Scottish word for bamboozle, to bamboozle.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23There's emblaze.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26Feaze. Greaze is, sort of, public school slang for a crowd.

0:17:26 > 0:17:32Intermaze, an interlocking maze. Mizmaze, another word for a maze.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35Overgaze which means to look over.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38And scraze which is another word for a scratch.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Nicki, if you'd just said faze,

0:17:40 > 0:17:42it would have been 46 points, would've seen you safely through.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44Let's take a look at the most popular answers.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48Daze would have scored 64 points.

0:17:48 > 0:17:52Haze, there we go, we've already had, 70.

0:17:52 > 0:17:56And maze, right at the top, there, with 76.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58OK, well, thanks very much, Richard.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00So, at the end of Round One,

0:18:00 > 0:18:02the losing pair with the highest score, it's Annie and Nicki.

0:18:02 > 0:18:07- Oh, we've had fun.- Oh, so have we. This wasn't meant to happen at all.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09You were to be our finalists, this show.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12I know, but I want that word invented now and then I'll feel better.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Don't you worry, the guys at the OED are working on it, right now.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17Such a shame to be saying goodbye to you.

0:18:17 > 0:18:18Far, far too soon, this show.

0:18:18 > 0:18:22It's been lovely having you on the show, thank you so much, Annie and Nicki.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24- It's been fun. - Brilliant contestants.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26APPLAUSE

0:18:29 > 0:18:32But, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Now, there's only room for two pairs in the head-to-head.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44One of the teams in front of me now will be leaving us

0:18:44 > 0:18:45at the end of this round.

0:18:45 > 0:18:46OK, our category for Round Two is...

0:18:48 > 0:18:51Musicians. Can you all decide in your pairs

0:18:51 > 0:18:53who's going to go first, who's going to go second.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57And whoever's going first, please, step up to the podium.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04OK, so our Round Two question concerns...

0:19:06 > 0:19:09Famous drummers and their bands, Richard.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11Yeah, we're going to show you six drummers on each pass.

0:19:11 > 0:19:14We asked 100 people with which bands did these drummers

0:19:14 > 0:19:15have the most chart success?

0:19:15 > 0:19:18With which bands are they most famously associated?

0:19:18 > 0:19:20If you give us a nice, obscure answer, you'll score fewer points.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23If you give us an incorrect answer, you're going to score 100 points.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26There's going to be 12 drummers in all. 12 bands to guess. Very best of luck at home.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Thanks very much, Richard.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31So, we are looking for the bands these drummers

0:19:31 > 0:19:33most famously drummed with.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35And here is our list.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45I'll read those all one more time.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54There they are. Now, Steve, I can see some nodding, there.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58Which suggests to me this board is a walk in the park for you.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00I wouldn't say walk in the park, it's not bad.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03I know, I think, most of them. There's one I don't know.

0:20:03 > 0:20:07The other four, four or five, I know, I think.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10So, I'm going to go for Meg White.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13- Who's in The White Stripes. - The White Stripes. Very good.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16Let's see if that is right. The White Stripes for Meg White.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19And if it is, let's see how many people knew that answer.

0:20:20 > 0:20:21It's right.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Very well done, 20.

0:20:28 > 0:20:29APPLAUSE

0:20:31 > 0:20:36- Not a bad score, at all. 20.- Yeah, well done, Steve. Nice, solid start.

0:20:36 > 0:20:40Co-founded the band with Jack White who took her name when they married.

0:20:40 > 0:20:44- Very good. Drew?- OK, when the topic came up, I shuddered.

0:20:44 > 0:20:48I'm absolutely terrible with names and bands and everything like that.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51So, this is a question which I was quite dreading.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54Cos I don't know a thing about it. Now I am dreading.

0:20:54 > 0:20:58I know people exist. They exist, which is good.

0:20:58 > 0:20:59But not sure of the band they're in.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02So, I'm going to have a guess at this obvious one.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04If any of those drummers are watching,

0:21:04 > 0:21:06I bet they'll be very glad to hear that they do exist.

0:21:06 > 0:21:10Yes, if you're watching, you exist, congratulations.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13So, I'm going to go for Ringo Starr, The Beatles.

0:21:14 > 0:21:18- What d'you think, Lloyd?- Yeah, it is, isn't it?- Well, let's see.

0:21:18 > 0:21:19Ringo Starr is the Beatles, you say.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22Obviously, you're hoping to score as few points as possible.

0:21:22 > 0:21:26Let's see how many people said Ringo Starr, The Beatles,

0:21:26 > 0:21:27if it's right.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30- It is r... - LAUGHTER

0:21:30 > 0:21:33APPLAUSE

0:21:36 > 0:21:37I'm one of the two.

0:21:37 > 0:21:42I, it is, sorry, I didn't have time to say it's right, but it was.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44It is right, it's very right, in fact.

0:21:44 > 0:21:47It's 98 people out of 100 right.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Yeah, Ringo Starr, he was in The Beatles.

0:21:50 > 0:21:5298 out of 100 people know that.

0:21:52 > 0:21:55I think I suspect I know who the other two are.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57LAUGHTER

0:22:03 > 0:22:05OK. Now then, Richard.

0:22:05 > 0:22:08So, remember, we are looking for the bands with which these drummers

0:22:08 > 0:22:10most famously played.

0:22:10 > 0:22:11You are the last person to have this board.

0:22:11 > 0:22:14So, fill in, which is an appropriate thing to stay

0:22:14 > 0:22:17when you're dealing with drummers, of course. Fill in.

0:22:17 > 0:22:21- The blanks.- This is a nightmare category from me.

0:22:21 > 0:22:24And if I get it wrong, my brother is going to kill me cos he knows,

0:22:24 > 0:22:27well, he's meant to know music. We'll soon find out.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29I'm not able to fill the board in for you.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33But the only one I'm going to have a decent guess at

0:22:33 > 0:22:35is Phil Collins, cos my mum loves him.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38And she always used to play Genesis CDs.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40So, I'm going to try Phil Collins and Genesis.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Phil Collins and Genesis. Let's see if that's right.

0:22:43 > 0:22:47If it is, let's see how many people said Phil Collins, Genesis.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54APPLAUSE

0:22:56 > 0:22:5868 for Phil Collins and Genesis. Richard.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00Yeah, joined them in 1970.

0:23:00 > 0:23:01Let's fill in the rest of the board.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03- Can I?- Yeah, of course, you can.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05- Charlie Watts? - Clearly, the Rolling Stones.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08Rolling Stones, yeah, would have scored you 58 points.

0:23:08 > 0:23:09- Tommy Lee?- Motley Crue.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11Motley Crue and former Mr Pamela Anderson

0:23:11 > 0:23:12would have scored you 8 points.

0:23:12 > 0:23:15- And Dave Rowntree? - He was with the Blur, I believe.

0:23:15 > 0:23:16He was with Blur. Would have scored you 3 points.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18That's the best answer on the board.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20Very well done if you said Dave Rowntree.

0:23:20 > 0:23:22We are halfway through the round.

0:23:22 > 0:23:27Let's take a look at the scores. The best score of that pass was Steve's.

0:23:27 > 0:23:34Very well done. Then we go up to 68, from 20, for Richard and Graham.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36And then, woah, all the way up at the 98

0:23:36 > 0:23:38where Drew and Lloyd are, courtesy of Ringo Starr.

0:23:38 > 0:23:39We will come back down the line.

0:23:39 > 0:23:42Can the second players, please, take their places at the podium?

0:23:47 > 0:23:50OK, we're going to put six more drummers on the board.

0:23:50 > 0:23:51And here they are.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01I'll read those all one more time.

0:24:08 > 0:24:11Now, remember, we are looking for the bands that these drummers

0:24:11 > 0:24:13most famously drummed for.

0:24:13 > 0:24:14And you're trying to find the one

0:24:14 > 0:24:16that the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:24:16 > 0:24:20Now then, Graham, the high-scorers are Lloyd and Drew on 98.

0:24:20 > 0:24:24If you can score 29 or less, you are through to the head-to-head.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27So, remember, we are looking for the bands with which

0:24:27 > 0:24:30these drummers most famously played.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34I have not got a clue. I'm going to take a total, wild guess.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36Mick Fleetwood, Fleetwood Mac.

0:24:36 > 0:24:41Mick Fleetwood, Fleetwood Mac, you are saying.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44OK, you're on 68. This is your red line, there.

0:24:44 > 0:24:45Below that red line,

0:24:45 > 0:24:48Mick Fleetwood will have got you through to the head-to-head.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50Let's see if he has.

0:24:50 > 0:24:52Is it right? How many people said it?

0:24:59 > 0:25:01APPLAUSE

0:25:01 > 0:25:03That takes your total up to 143.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06- Richard.- Yeah, there's a big clue in the name, isn't there?

0:25:06 > 0:25:08Co-founded the band in 1967.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11Thank you very much. Now then, Lloyd.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13So, remember, we are looking for the bands

0:25:13 > 0:25:15with which these drummers played.

0:25:15 > 0:25:16Most famously.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19The high-scorers are now Graham and Richard on 143.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21Which means if you can score 44 or less,

0:25:21 > 0:25:24you are through to the head-to-head.

0:25:24 > 0:25:25How confident are you feeling, Lloyd?

0:25:25 > 0:25:27I knew Mick Fleetwood. I would have gone for that one.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30It's probably the only one on the board I know.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32I know names and I've got bands floating in my head.

0:25:32 > 0:25:33My dad'll be ashamed

0:25:33 > 0:25:37cos he really likes some of these bands, I think.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40But I'm going to go for Keith Moon.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42I'm going to hope that it's right and go with The Who.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44I think I'm wrong.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47- You're saying Keith Moon, The Who. - Yeah, a stab at it.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49OK, well, here's your red line.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52Below that red line

0:25:52 > 0:25:55and Keith Moon, The Who will see you through to the head-to-head.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57Let's see, is it right?

0:25:57 > 0:26:00And if it is, how many people said Keith Moon, The Who?

0:26:00 > 0:26:02Of course it's right, very well done, Lloyd.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05APPLAUSE

0:26:05 > 0:26:11However, 64, it scores you. Takes your total up to 162.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14Which, I'm afraid, is going to be the highest score of this round.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17- Richard.- But a right answer, Lloyd. You had it up there all along.

0:26:17 > 0:26:19He died in 1978, Keith Moon.

0:26:19 > 0:26:22Now, The Who use all sorts of other drummers.

0:26:22 > 0:26:26Quite recently they used Zak Starkey, who is Ringo Starr's son.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29And Ringo Starr was the drummer with The Beatles.

0:26:29 > 0:26:33- Yes.- The Beatles, who are a Liverpudlian band from the '60s.

0:26:34 > 0:26:37OK. Now, Paula, we come to you.

0:26:37 > 0:26:41- You can then fill in the gaps that the others have left.- No, I can't.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Then pick your favourite answer.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47I'd love to be able to fill in the gaps but I only knew two

0:26:47 > 0:26:49and they're, obviously, the ones that have just gone.

0:26:49 > 0:26:53I think that Stewart Copeland might be The Police.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56- Stewart Copeland might be The Police.- I don't know.

0:26:56 > 0:26:57There is no red line for you

0:26:57 > 0:27:00because you're through to the head-to-head, whatever happens.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02- Good for me.- So, very good for you.

0:27:02 > 0:27:06Stewart Copeland, The Police, is it right? How many people said it?

0:27:13 > 0:27:14APPLAUSE

0:27:17 > 0:27:2135. Very well done. Takes your total up to 55. Richard.

0:27:21 > 0:27:23Well played, Paula. Best answer in both passes from your team.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27Let's fill in the rest of the board. Do you want to have a go at these?

0:27:27 > 0:27:28- Yes.- John Bonham?

0:27:28 > 0:27:32- John Bonham?- Yes. - I think, Led Zeppelin.

0:27:32 > 0:27:33Led Zeppelin, exactly right.

0:27:33 > 0:27:36Would have scored you 13 points. Lars Ulrich?

0:27:36 > 0:27:38Don't know.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42Is Metallica. Would have scored you 6 points. And John Keeble?

0:27:42 > 0:27:46- One for '80s fans.- Spandau Ballet. - Spandau Ballet, exactly right.

0:27:46 > 0:27:47It would have scored 2 points.

0:27:47 > 0:27:51Very well done if you got that, best answer on the board.

0:27:51 > 0:27:52Thank you very much, Richard.

0:27:52 > 0:27:53So, at the end of Round Two,

0:27:53 > 0:27:57the losing pair with the highest score is Drew and Lloyd.

0:27:57 > 0:28:01Bad luck. Oh, Drew.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04- Drew.- Don't like the drums, do not like the drums.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06Don't like drums. But do you like music, at all?

0:28:06 > 0:28:10- Not, I'm more niche, kind of, folk music.- Yeah.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12- Really?- Hm.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14Well, listen, we have to say goodbye to you, now.

0:28:14 > 0:28:17Which is a great shame, but we will see you again next time.

0:28:17 > 0:28:20We look forward to that. Lloyd and Drew, splendid people,

0:28:20 > 0:28:21thank you for playing.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23APPLAUSE

0:28:23 > 0:28:25For the remaining two pairs, things are about to get

0:28:25 > 0:28:29even more exciting now, as we enter the head-to-head.

0:28:34 > 0:28:36Well, very well done, Paula and Steve, Graham and Richard.

0:28:36 > 0:28:38You've made it through to the head-to-head.

0:28:38 > 0:28:41Only one pair can make it through to the final

0:28:41 > 0:28:45and play for today's jackpot, which currently stands at £5,250.

0:28:49 > 0:28:51Well, here's how it works.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54For each question, each pair needs to give me just one answer

0:28:54 > 0:28:55but you are now allowed to confer.

0:28:55 > 0:28:57All you have to do is come up with an answer that scores

0:28:57 > 0:29:00less than the other pair and you will win that question.

0:29:00 > 0:29:03The first pair to win two questions will be playing for today's jackpot.

0:29:03 > 0:29:05Let's play Pointless.

0:29:09 > 0:29:10OK, here's your first question.

0:29:10 > 0:29:13We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:29:13 > 0:29:17to name as many Oscar Wilde plays as they could.

0:29:17 > 0:29:18Oscar Wilde plays, Richard.

0:29:18 > 0:29:21Yes, simply looking for any play written by Oscar Wilde.

0:29:21 > 0:29:25Any uncompleted play, such as A Florentine Tragedy, we won't allow.

0:29:25 > 0:29:27It's any completed play by Oscar Wilde, please.

0:29:27 > 0:29:29OK, thank you very much.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31Paula and Steve, you've played best throughout the show,

0:29:31 > 0:29:33so far, so you get to go first.

0:29:33 > 0:29:35Oscar Wilde plays, we're looking for.

0:29:38 > 0:29:43- We'll go for... Well, we only know one.- One.

0:29:43 > 0:29:47- The Importance Of Being Earnest. - The Importance Of Being Earnest. OK.

0:29:47 > 0:29:49There we are. That's what you're saying.

0:29:49 > 0:29:51Graham and Richard, you can confer out loud, if you like.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56- Really no idea whatsoever. - Not a clue.

0:29:58 > 0:30:01We're just going to have to throw

0:30:01 > 0:30:03the name of some sort of play out there.

0:30:03 > 0:30:06And hope for the best. What are we going to go for?

0:30:06 > 0:30:07No idea. Just go for it.

0:30:07 > 0:30:10Just have to say something like Oliver.

0:30:12 > 0:30:13LAUGHTER

0:30:13 > 0:30:17- Something like Oliver.- Yeah.

0:30:17 > 0:30:20You see, I'd like to say Something Like Oliver sounds like

0:30:20 > 0:30:22a really good name for a play, actually.

0:30:22 > 0:30:24But you're going to say Oliver, Oliver is your answer.

0:30:24 > 0:30:26The Importance Of Being Earnest versus Oliver.

0:30:26 > 0:30:30OK, Paula and Steve, The Importance Of Being Earnest, is it right?

0:30:30 > 0:30:32How many people said it?

0:30:33 > 0:30:34It's right.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41APPLAUSE

0:30:44 > 0:30:4533 for The Importance Of Being Earnest.

0:30:45 > 0:30:47And, Graham and Richard, you have gone for Oliver.

0:30:47 > 0:30:49Let's see if that's right.

0:30:49 > 0:30:52And if it is, let's see how many people said Oliver.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58Yup, I'm afraid, as you might have guessed, that's an incorrect answer.

0:30:58 > 0:31:01Which means, after one question, Paula and Steve are ahead, one-nil.

0:31:01 > 0:31:03Richard.

0:31:03 > 0:31:06Yeah. Let's take a look at all the answers, Oliver not included.

0:31:06 > 0:31:08LAUGHTER

0:31:08 > 0:31:10There is a pointless answer, a very obscure one.

0:31:10 > 0:31:14Very well done if got For The Love Of The King, A Burmese Masque.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17A pantomimic play from 1894.

0:31:17 > 0:31:18The Duchess Of Padua would have scored you 1.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20A Woman Of No Importance would have only scored you 1.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22Vera, or The Nihilists,

0:31:22 > 0:31:25that was Wilde's first ever play, would have scored you 4 points.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27Salome that he wrote in French, 7. An Ideal Husband, 7.

0:31:27 > 0:31:30Lady Windermere's Fan, there, on 11.

0:31:30 > 0:31:33And The Importance Of Being Earnest, 33.

0:31:33 > 0:31:36Thank you very much, Richard. Here is your second question.

0:31:36 > 0:31:40Graham and Richard, you have to win this question to stay in the game.

0:31:40 > 0:31:42Best of luck. Here it comes.

0:31:42 > 0:31:45We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:31:45 > 0:31:51as many 2011 Cricket World Cup quarter finalists as they could.

0:31:51 > 0:31:532011 Cricket World Cup quarter finalists. Richard.

0:31:53 > 0:31:56Yes, simply looking for any of the eight teams that reached

0:31:56 > 0:31:59the quarter finals of the 2011 Cricket World Cup.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02OK, now then, Graham and Richard, you go first this time.

0:32:11 > 0:32:12- OK, we have an answer.- We do.

0:32:12 > 0:32:17Not great cricket fans but we think they got to the quarter finals

0:32:17 > 0:32:20which is, obviously, a good place to start.

0:32:21 > 0:32:25- We're going to go with Ireland. - Ireland, OK. You're saying Ireland.

0:32:26 > 0:32:27Paula and Steve?

0:32:27 > 0:32:30Relying on Steve for this one.

0:32:30 > 0:32:36I think all eight were the major teams, the major cricketing teams.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38So, I'll go for Sri Lanka.

0:32:38 > 0:32:43Sri Lanka. OK. Ireland, say Graham and Richard.

0:32:43 > 0:32:45Sri Lanka, say Paula and Steve.

0:32:45 > 0:32:47Let's see how many people said Ireland.

0:32:50 > 0:32:52Oooh.

0:32:52 > 0:32:54Bad luck.

0:32:54 > 0:32:57This was a question you had to win.

0:32:59 > 0:33:05Your only salvation will be if Paula and Steve have also got it wrong.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07Now, Steve and Paula have said Sri Lanka.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09All it has to be is right.

0:33:10 > 0:33:12Is it?

0:33:15 > 0:33:17It is.

0:33:17 > 0:33:18It is right.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20Very well done, Paula and Steve, you are through to the final.

0:33:20 > 0:33:2238, it scored.

0:33:22 > 0:33:24APPLAUSE

0:33:29 > 0:33:30That means, after only two questions,

0:33:30 > 0:33:33Paula and Steve are straight through to the final.

0:33:33 > 0:33:34- Richard. - Unlucky, Graham and Richard.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36Ireland did beat England in a group game

0:33:36 > 0:33:38but they didn't qualify for the quarter finals, I'm afraid.

0:33:38 > 0:33:41And, Steve, you're exactly right,

0:33:41 > 0:33:43the eight quarter finalists were the eight big teams.

0:33:43 > 0:33:44Let's take a look that all of them.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46The best answer would have been New Zealand.

0:33:46 > 0:33:49That would have won the points, 17. West Indies, 23. South Africa, 24.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52All of those would have just won you that point, guys.

0:33:52 > 0:33:55There's Sri Lanka on 38, eventually lost it in the final.

0:33:55 > 0:34:00Australia, 60. India, who won the whole tournament, 65. Pakistan, 66.

0:34:00 > 0:34:03And England, up the top, on 74. Very well done if you got all eight.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05Thanks very much, Richard.

0:34:05 > 0:34:07So, the losing pair, at the end of the head-to-head,

0:34:07 > 0:34:08I'm afraid, Graham and Richard.

0:34:08 > 0:34:11Dear, oh, dear. You've come storming through to the head-to-head.

0:34:11 > 0:34:15Just two categories that really haven't served you well at all.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17Oscar Wilde and Cricket World Cup.

0:34:17 > 0:34:20Our other answer for the cricket was Pakistan

0:34:20 > 0:34:21but we knew that would be quite high.

0:34:21 > 0:34:23- Quite a high-scorer. - Thought we gamble.

0:34:23 > 0:34:25Oh, well, it was a good gamble. And you're right,

0:34:25 > 0:34:28- Ireland did do pretty well but not that well, sadly.- Not well enough.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31But you've come one round further than you did last time.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33So, that's no mean feat.

0:34:33 > 0:34:36- It's been great having you on the show, thanks very much.- Cheers.

0:34:36 > 0:34:38APPLAUSE

0:34:39 > 0:34:42For Paula and Steve, though, it's now time for our Pointless final

0:34:42 > 0:34:46and the chance to win our jackpot of £5,250.

0:34:53 > 0:34:56Well, congratulations, Paula and Steve, you have fought off

0:34:56 > 0:34:59all the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:34:59 > 0:35:00So, very well done.

0:35:06 > 0:35:09You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:35:09 > 0:35:14And at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £5,250.

0:35:19 > 0:35:21The rules are very simple.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23All you need to win that money is to find one pointless answer.

0:35:23 > 0:35:25That's an answer that none of our 100 people could think of.

0:35:25 > 0:35:28We haven't had any pointless answers on the show today.

0:35:28 > 0:35:32You only have to find one now and you will go home with that money.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34First, though, you've got to choose a category.

0:35:34 > 0:35:38And you can choose from these three options. They are...

0:35:42 > 0:35:46- Well, Classical Music is definitely out.- Without a doubt.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49We know nothing about classical music.

0:35:49 > 0:35:52Celebrities, I might know but you possibly wouldn't, would you?

0:35:52 > 0:35:55- I'm not very good at celebrities. - No, let's go for children's books.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58OK, Children's Books.

0:35:58 > 0:36:01What children's books would you like?

0:36:01 > 0:36:02What sort of category would be good for you?

0:36:02 > 0:36:05- Beatrix Potter would be good. - Beatrix Potter.

0:36:05 > 0:36:07Yeah, that's the only ones we know.

0:36:07 > 0:36:09OK. Right, well, very best of luck.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11Let's find out what that question is.

0:36:11 > 0:36:13We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:36:13 > 0:36:18as many Enid Blyton's Famous Five titles as they could. Richard.

0:36:18 > 0:36:20Yeah, we're looking for the titles

0:36:20 > 0:36:22of any of Enid Blyton's Famous Five novels.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25Those are the full-length novels, first published

0:36:25 > 0:36:28between 1942 and 1963.

0:36:28 > 0:36:30Any of Enid Blyton's Famous Five novels, please.

0:36:30 > 0:36:34OK, you now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:36:34 > 0:36:39And all you need to win that £5,250 is for just one of those answers

0:36:39 > 0:36:41to be pointless.

0:36:41 > 0:36:42Your 60 seconds start now.

0:36:43 > 0:36:45- I don't know any.- I don't know any.

0:36:45 > 0:36:48All I can think of is Five Go Mad In Dorset but that's that thing.

0:36:48 > 0:36:51- Dawn French.- Dawn French thing. - Is that a parody of a real one?

0:36:51 > 0:36:52Yeah, I think so.

0:36:54 > 0:36:59- I mean, try it, because it's worth of pop.- Five go to Dorset.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01Yeah, could try that.

0:37:03 > 0:37:06Famous, just what they got up to or something.

0:37:06 > 0:37:10- Famous Five Go To The Beach, or something.- Something like that.

0:37:10 > 0:37:13- Famous Five Go On Holiday. - Go On A Rowing Boat.

0:37:13 > 0:37:16Oh, gosh. I've absolutely no idea.

0:37:16 > 0:37:18Desperately trying to think of stuff.

0:37:18 > 0:37:20- We could say go on holiday or something.- Yeah.- Go to the beach.

0:37:20 > 0:37:24- Yeah, some activities. If we say three of activities.- Yeah.

0:37:24 > 0:37:28- What about places, or something? - Well, we'll just use the Dorset one.

0:37:28 > 0:37:32Five Go Mad In Dorset. Do you want to? Or just Go To Dorset?

0:37:32 > 0:37:34Famous Five In Dorset?

0:37:34 > 0:37:37- Go To Dorset.- And what about the third one?- On Holiday.

0:37:37 > 0:37:40- Five seconds left.- And To The Beach.

0:37:40 > 0:37:43- OK, OK.- Yeah.- Yeah, yeah.

0:37:43 > 0:37:45OK, there is your minute gone.

0:37:45 > 0:37:47We were looking for Enid Blyton Famous Five novels.

0:37:47 > 0:37:49I now need three answers.

0:37:50 > 0:37:52Well, I think we're clutching at straws, here,

0:37:52 > 0:37:54but we'll go for Five Go To Dorset.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56Five Go To Dorset.

0:37:56 > 0:38:00- Five...- Go On Holiday.- Five Go On Holiday.- Five Go On Holiday.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03- And Five On The Beach. - And Five On The Beach.

0:38:03 > 0:38:07- OK, there are three Famous Five books.- No.- No.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09Of those three,

0:38:09 > 0:38:12which is your most confident shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:12 > 0:38:16- On holiday, probably.- On Holiday. - That's our best, I think.

0:38:16 > 0:38:18- Put that last.- OK, so we'll put that one last, then.

0:38:18 > 0:38:20Which one is your least likely, do you think?

0:38:20 > 0:38:22Go for the Dorset one first.

0:38:22 > 0:38:23Just clutching at straws.

0:38:23 > 0:38:26- OK, On The Beach, then, we'll put in the middle.- Yeah.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29OK, well, let's put them up on the board in that order

0:38:29 > 0:38:30and here they are.

0:38:36 > 0:38:42There they are. We were looking for Enid Blyton Famous Five novels.

0:38:42 > 0:38:45- Books, I think we might call them. - Yeah.

0:38:45 > 0:38:47So, you said this was your least confident answer.

0:38:47 > 0:38:49Remember, you only have to find one pointless answer to win

0:38:49 > 0:38:51that jackpot of £5,250.

0:38:51 > 0:38:54You never know, one of these might be correct and pointless.

0:38:54 > 0:39:00So, let's see. How many people said Five Go To Dorset?

0:39:00 > 0:39:03Is it correct? Five Go To Dorset.

0:39:06 > 0:39:07No.

0:39:07 > 0:39:09I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer.

0:39:09 > 0:39:12So, obviously, not a pointless answer which means

0:39:12 > 0:39:15you only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.

0:39:15 > 0:39:20- What, hypothetically, would you do with £5,250?- Very hypothetical.

0:39:20 > 0:39:22I don't know, I don't know the answers.

0:39:22 > 0:39:25There's every chance you might have landed on an Enid Blyton book.

0:39:25 > 0:39:30- Buy some Enid Blyton books, I think. - Yeah. Go on holiday, to the beach.

0:39:30 > 0:39:33Go to Dorset, you could do a lot worse.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35- Good point, yeah.- Yeah.- Yeah.- Yeah.

0:39:35 > 0:39:38Seriously, what would you do with £5,250?

0:39:38 > 0:39:41- Go on the beach on holiday.- Dorset. - To Greece.- Greece. Yeah, I think so.

0:39:41 > 0:39:46- Splendid.- We got married in Greece. - Oh, you did, very good.

0:39:46 > 0:39:48- Lovely place to get married. - We did, it was lovely.

0:39:48 > 0:39:50OK, well, very best of luck.

0:39:50 > 0:39:53Let's hope that Five On The Beach will get those things for you.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56It has to be right, of course, and has to be pointless.

0:39:56 > 0:40:00This, for that jackpot of £5,250, Five On The Beach.

0:40:00 > 0:40:01Is it right? How may people said it?

0:40:06 > 0:40:07- No.- Surprise.

0:40:07 > 0:40:09Bad luck.

0:40:09 > 0:40:12That means you only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.

0:40:14 > 0:40:15You put it last.

0:40:15 > 0:40:18You said this was the one you had the most faith in to be pointless.

0:40:18 > 0:40:19Five Go On Holiday.

0:40:19 > 0:40:21Sounds absolutely right, doesn't it?

0:40:21 > 0:40:23- Why not?- I'd be surprised. - They must've gone on holiday.

0:40:23 > 0:40:26- At some point. - They must've done at some stage.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28Even Enid Blyton's children needed a break.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31- Absolutely.- From all those adventures.- Yeah.- Yeah.

0:40:31 > 0:40:34OK. This was the answer you had the most faith in to be pointless.

0:40:34 > 0:40:38It has to be pointless if you're going to win that jackpot of £5,250.

0:40:38 > 0:40:42Let's just see, is it right? How many people said Five Go On Holiday?

0:40:46 > 0:40:48Oh, bad luck.

0:40:48 > 0:40:50APPLAUSE

0:40:50 > 0:40:51Oh, well.

0:40:57 > 0:40:59Well, I had a good feeling about five going on holiday.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01That was a likely thing for them to do.

0:41:01 > 0:41:03Anyway, unfortunately,

0:41:03 > 0:41:05you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer.

0:41:05 > 0:41:09So, I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £5,250,

0:41:09 > 0:41:10which will roll over onto the next show.

0:41:10 > 0:41:12But you have been brilliant contestants

0:41:12 > 0:41:14and you do get to take home our Pointless trophy.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17Ah, brilliant. Thank you very much.

0:41:17 > 0:41:19APPLAUSE

0:41:19 > 0:41:21Wrong category.

0:41:21 > 0:41:24Yeah, unlucky, guys. You played so well throughout.

0:41:24 > 0:41:27Best answer in Round One, best two answers in Round Two.

0:41:27 > 0:41:30Won the head-to-head two-nil. Very tough category in the final.

0:41:30 > 0:41:32There are a load of pointless answers.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34Five Go Down To The Sea was a pointless answer.

0:41:34 > 0:41:36That's next to the beach, isn't it?

0:41:37 > 0:41:40And you were saying earlier about Five Go Mad In Dorset

0:41:40 > 0:41:41which is the Comic Strip version.

0:41:41 > 0:41:45- One of our 100 did actually say that. - Did they?- Disallowed it, of course.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47Let's take a look. There are 21 books in all.

0:41:47 > 0:41:48Let's take a look at the pointless ones.

0:41:48 > 0:41:51Five Fall Into Adventure, Five Go To Billycock Hill

0:41:51 > 0:41:53and Five Go To Mystery Moor.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56Five Go To Demons Rocks, Five Have A Mystery To Solve,

0:41:56 > 0:41:58Five Have A Wonderful Time.

0:41:58 > 0:42:00Five On A Hike Together, Five On A Secret Trail
