0:00:23 > 0:00:25APPLAUSE
0:00:25 > 0:00:28Thank you. I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:28 > 0:00:32where obvious answers mean nothing and obscure answers mean everything.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Let's meet today's players.
0:00:39 > 0:00:43Welcome back, Drew and Lloyd. You're our first pair this afternoon.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46You were on the show last time, remind us what happened.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49We fell down by only knowing that Ringo Starr
0:00:49 > 0:00:51was a member of the Beatles.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Not me though, that was Drew. I know that he was a member.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56We got it right, OK?
0:00:56 > 0:00:58- But you scored 98.- Yes.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02- It's not 100. - Two better than wrong, Drew. Two better than wrong.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05We discovered you are both studying at Bangor.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08- We are.- When you're not doing that, what do you like to do? Lloyd?
0:01:08 > 0:01:12- Me?- Yes.- Well, I like to dance.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14I'm a disco dance champion.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Oh, Lloyd.
0:01:17 > 0:01:18Oh, Lloyd.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21You're going to make me do it, aren't you?
0:01:21 > 0:01:23I'm going to enjoy this.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25I'm the master at the hand jive.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- Are you?- I'll only do it if you do it with me.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32In that case, we shall just have to take your word for it.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34THEY LAUGH
0:01:34 > 0:01:38What do you do with your feet while you're doing this with your hands?
0:01:38 > 0:01:42- What do I do with my feet? - Yes.- They're moving too.- OK.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Very best of luck. Great to have you back on the show.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50Next, we welcome, Benali and Freyja. How do you know each other?
0:01:50 > 0:01:53We both go to the University of Sussex, doing postgrad study there.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55What are you studying, Freyja?
0:01:55 > 0:01:58I'm doing an MPhil in American literature,
0:01:58 > 0:02:02so, my kind of specialist, if I can say that, subject is Kerouac.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Kind of 50s, 60s American literature.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09OK, so beat literature of the 60s would be right up your street.
0:02:09 > 0:02:10That would be perfect.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14- Benali, what are you studying? - I'm doing a PhD In psychology,
0:02:14 > 0:02:16specifically researching schizophrenia.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Schizophrenia questions we don't really have, do we?
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- No?- Yes, not so much.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- Not so much.- Not so much, no.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Benali and Freyja, it's lovely to have you here.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28Best of luck this afternoon.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Next, we welcome Paul and Eddie.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Now how do you two know each other?
0:02:32 > 0:02:36We've known each other quite a long time because we happen to be brothers.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39- So quite a while, really. - Can't argue with that.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Quite a while. Where are you from, Paul and Eddie?
0:02:42 > 0:02:45At the moment, we live in Clacton-on-Sea, in Essex.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46What do you do in Clacton?
0:02:46 > 0:02:48At the moment, we're between jobs.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52We had a pool club in Clacton we had for five years,
0:02:52 > 0:02:54and we sold that a little while ago.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56So, what's next?
0:02:56 > 0:02:58I've applied for HM Coastguard.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Have you really?- Yes, I have. - You patrol, do you?
0:03:00 > 0:03:03No, shore based. Shore based.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Hang on, you mean like Baywatch? In Essex?
0:03:06 > 0:03:07LAUGHTER
0:03:07 > 0:03:09You're basically Hasselhoff?
0:03:09 > 0:03:10With this figure?
0:03:10 > 0:03:14A couple of months on Baywatch, you'd be as svelte as you like,
0:03:14 > 0:03:16running up and down Clacton-on-Sea.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- I like you. I like you a lot. - There you are.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23Paul, what are your plans?
0:03:23 > 0:03:27I've recently finished a course for my SIA badge, which is security systems,
0:03:27 > 0:03:29I'm going to get into the security game.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32CCTV, observation, that type of thing.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35- I see, so you're not a mercenary? - No, no, no.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Not that kind of security.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40- When we go to the bar.- Yes!
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Paul and Eddie, it's fabulous to have you here.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Very best of luck to the pair of you.
0:03:44 > 0:03:48Finally, we've got Gwyn and Matt. Now how do you do know each other?
0:03:48 > 0:03:51I know Matt because Matt is my son.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54We met quite a long time ago, 34 years ago.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57If you think he looks bad now, you should've seen him then,
0:03:57 > 0:03:59he looked like a shrivelled prune.
0:03:59 > 0:04:03- I'm guessing he didn't have the sideburns then?- Not at that stage.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Because that would be scary, wouldn't it?
0:04:06 > 0:04:08A baby coming out, looking like Alvin Stardust.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11No, his mum had the sideburns! No, no, she didn't.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13LAUGHS
0:04:13 > 0:04:14No, she didn't.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17So where have you come from? I think I have a rough idea.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19We've come from Cardiff, South Wales.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Very good. Matt, what do you do there?
0:04:21 > 0:04:24I work for a large arts centre,
0:04:24 > 0:04:28but I work for the cinema department within that arts centre
0:04:28 > 0:04:33and I organise and run the education programme
0:04:33 > 0:04:36for the cinema department.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40You do realise you have now set yourself up for any film questions?
0:04:40 > 0:04:43I get to watch a lot of children's films.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47- Gwyn, how about you, what do you do? - I like to play pool.
0:04:47 > 0:04:48I used to be a good,
0:04:48 > 0:04:52well, I could've been a good snooker player, but never got the break.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Have you ever been to Clacton-on-Sea and played any pool there?
0:04:55 > 0:04:58There was a brilliant pool hall. I don't know what's happened...
0:04:58 > 0:05:02No, it was a front. That was a front.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Oh, yes. They weren't making their money from pool.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09I did wonder because I never saw a single person playing pool.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13I heard one of them now, he's going to work for the coastguard?
0:05:13 > 0:05:16And the other one is in to CCTV?
0:05:16 > 0:05:18- Doesn't look good, does it? - Not at all.
0:05:18 > 0:05:25Gwyn, I'm not sure we've had parrots yet on shirts.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28- Have we? I think it's a first. - I think he may be a fashion leader.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32I believe that it reflects my personality. It's bright,
0:05:32 > 0:05:35it's colourful and it keeps repeating itself.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38I say, it keeps repeating itself.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41It's great to have you both here. Very best of luck to you.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43We'll find out more about you as we go on.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45There's only one person left to introduce.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48He's the yeoman warder of the obscurity crown jewels,
0:05:48 > 0:05:51there as both security and a national tourist attraction.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55- He's my pointless friend. It's Richard.- Hiya.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56APPLAUSE
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Hello. How are you? All right?
0:06:00 > 0:06:01Yes, very well.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Well, what a bunch we've got with us today.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08- You're telling me.- Blimey.
0:06:08 > 0:06:13The first round is one of those ones that has been asked for most
0:06:13 > 0:06:16ever in Pointless history. People in the studio and street,
0:06:16 > 0:06:17say, why don't you do a round on this?
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Round one today is a thing I've been asked for
0:06:20 > 0:06:23more than any other round in Pointless history, I think.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27We put all our questions to people before, but this is Pointless
0:06:27 > 0:06:29so we're after the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31For a chance to win our jackpot,
0:06:31 > 0:06:34all you need to do is score a few points as you can.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer,
0:06:36 > 0:06:39that's an answer none of our 100 people gave
0:06:39 > 0:06:42and each time that happens we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:06:42 > 0:06:46Nobody won the jackpot last time so we had another £1,000 to that
0:06:46 > 0:06:50so today's jackpot starts off at £6,250. There we are.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52APPLAUSE
0:06:55 > 0:06:59Right, let's play Pointless.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07In the first round, each of you must give me one answer
0:07:07 > 0:07:09and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Whichever team has highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16OK, our first category this afternoon is...
0:07:16 > 0:07:17fashion.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21Can all decide who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:07:28 > 0:07:33We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many types of trouser
0:07:33 > 0:07:37as they could. Oh, you're right...
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- People always ask for it.- They always ask you for types of trouser.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43People say, can we do musicals or types of trouser.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45We said one day it will come up.
0:07:45 > 0:07:50All the correct answers in this round will be types of trouser or short.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Trouser or short.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56Now then, Drew and Lloyd, you all drew lots before the show
0:07:56 > 0:07:59and this afternoon, you get to go first.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01In this round, we'll give you a choice
0:08:01 > 0:08:03of seven possible answers on the board in each pass.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07Your first set of seven possible types of trouser reads like this...
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Now I can tell you that at least one of those answers is pointless
0:08:27 > 0:08:30and at least one of those answers is incorrect.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34Pick one of those and you will score the maximum of 100 points.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36So then, Drew,
0:08:36 > 0:08:40it falls to you to get the ball rolling this afternoon.
0:08:40 > 0:08:41Got to start somewhere.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44I know a few of those in my head.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47I'm going to go for,
0:08:47 > 0:08:50pronunciation probably wrong, shalwar?
0:08:50 > 0:08:54- Shalwar.- Shalwar. - Let's see if it's right,
0:08:54 > 0:08:57and if it is, let's see how money people said shalwar.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59It's right.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04Now this could be very, very good, Drew. Look at that.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08Yes! Very, very well done.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:09:10 > 0:09:12That's a pointless answer, Drew.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16It adds £250 to today's jackpot, takes the total up to £6,500
0:09:16 > 0:09:20and it scores you nothing. Very, well done indeed.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24Yes, it's a loose trouser, usually worn on the Indian subcontinent
0:09:24 > 0:09:27that tapers into the ankle.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Brilliant. Benali?
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Well, I was going to go for that, so I'll have to extend myself more
0:09:32 > 0:09:37but I think I am going to go for, plus fours?
0:09:39 > 0:09:41OK, you're saying plus fours.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said plus fours.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49It's right.
0:09:54 > 0:09:5514.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57APPLAUSE
0:09:59 > 0:10:0114 for plus fours. Richard.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Yeah, good, safe answer, Benali.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05It's a baggy trouser worn to just below the knee.
0:10:05 > 0:10:10- Thank you very much. Now, Paul. Types of trouser.- Yeah.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14I might go outrageous and try the top one, braccae.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18Braccae. Let's see if it's right and, if it is, how many people said it. Good luck.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22It's right!
0:10:24 > 0:10:28It's right. Down it goes.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31- Yes! Very well done. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:10:32 > 0:10:37That's pointless. It adds another £250 to today's jackpot.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39It takes the total up to 6,750
0:10:39 > 0:10:43and it scores you nothing. Not only our second pointless,
0:10:43 > 0:10:45also our second slightly skewed high-five there.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Two people very nearly...
0:10:47 > 0:10:50He's too tall for me, that's why.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54- I asked him for a low-five earlier - it didn't happen. - He missed that as well.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57- LAUGHTER - Richard.- Another pointless answer.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59I knew trousers would be a good round. Knew it.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Braccae is actually Latin for "trousers" and refers to
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- a type of woollen trouser. - That's what I said to my brother. - I heard you.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10- LAUGHTER - Gwyn, you're the last person to have this rack of trousers,
0:11:10 > 0:11:12so you can talk us through them if you like.
0:11:12 > 0:11:17And tick them off as you go down them and pick one to submit.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Well, I'm running out of options.
0:11:20 > 0:11:21I was going to see braccae, honest.
0:11:21 > 0:11:26- And normally I'm, as you can tell, a fashion guru.- Indeed. - LAUGHTER
0:11:26 > 0:11:31Unfortunately I don't know a lot about trousers. I think...
0:11:31 > 0:11:33I will take a chance on pantaloons.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Let's see if pantaloons is right
0:11:35 > 0:11:38and, if it is, let's see how many people said pantaloons.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Very well done. It's right.
0:11:46 > 0:11:47Look at that.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50- Very well done, Gwyn. - APPLAUSE
0:11:50 > 0:11:51Four points for pantaloons.
0:11:51 > 0:11:56- Richard.- Well done, Gwyn. Very low scoring round, isn't it?
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Long tight-fitting trousers that go over the feet like tights.
0:11:59 > 0:12:04Let's take a look at the rest of the board. Flares - obviously. That would have scored you 38.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Cords would've scored you 24.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Now, by process of elimination, islips is an incorrect answer.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Do you know why it's incorrect?
0:12:12 > 0:12:14- No.- Very obscure one.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16You know the video for Baggy Trousers by Madness?
0:12:16 > 0:12:22It's filmed at Islip Street School in Kentish Town, North London.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24- Wow.- Yeah.- OK, let's take a look at those scores
0:12:24 > 0:12:28halfway through the round. Drew and Lloyd, Paul and Eddie,
0:12:28 > 0:12:32fantastic answers from the pair of you pairs.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Then up to 4 for Gwyn and Matt.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Who would've thought 14 would be the highest score in that pass?
0:12:38 > 0:12:40But I'm afraid, Benali, it is.
0:12:40 > 0:12:44We're coming back down the line. Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:12:48 > 0:12:50We're putting seven more answers on the board.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53We're looking for types of trouser, in case you'd forgotten.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Our second set of seven reads like this...
0:13:01 > 0:13:03I'll read them one more time...
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Again, I can tell you at least one of those answers is pointless
0:13:11 > 0:13:14and at least one of those answers is incorrect.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Pick an incorrect one and you will score 100 points.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19So then, Matt, you're on 4.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23The highest scorers are Freyja and Benali on 14, which means
0:13:23 > 0:13:24if you can score 9 or less
0:13:24 > 0:13:27you are through to the next round.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29- What do you think?- Um...
0:13:30 > 0:13:32So, I'm going to go for something
0:13:32 > 0:13:35that probably isn't one of the obvious ones,
0:13:35 > 0:13:37but I'm going to go for chaps.
0:13:37 > 0:13:41OK, chaps, you're saying. There they are, second one down.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Here is your red line. If you can get
0:13:43 > 0:13:45below that red line with chaps,
0:13:45 > 0:13:47you are through to the next round.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Let's see if chaps is right and how many people said it.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53Yup.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- Oh, very, very well done! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Spectacular, Matt. That's a pointless answer.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08It adds £250 to today's jackpot and takes the total up to £7,000.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11It scores you nothing and leaves your total at 4. Well done. Richard.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Yeah, well done. Chaps, short for chaparreras.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18Stoat leather trousers worn by cowboys to protect their legs.
0:14:18 > 0:14:23Now then, Eddie. The highest scorers are still Freyja and Benali on 14.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24You are on nothing.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Should you score 13 or less, you are through to the next round.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Well...
0:14:30 > 0:14:34I've heard of one, but I don't know if they're trousers or not.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37I'm going to go for it. And I'm going to say salopettes.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41Salopettes, you are seeing. There at the bottom of the screen.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Is salopettes is right? How many people said it?
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Very well done.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Yeah, you've done it.
0:14:53 > 0:14:54Oh, it's another one!
0:14:54 > 0:14:56CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:14:56 > 0:14:59That's another pointless answer. It adds a further £250
0:14:59 > 0:15:04to today's jackpot. Takes the total up to 7,250.
0:15:04 > 0:15:08It scores you nothing and leaves your total at nothing.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10- Very well done. - Yeah, well played, Eddie.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14Very rare double pointless there. Salopettes are worn for skiing.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16They're quilted trousers held on by shoulder straps.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20- Double pointless, you see. - It's all about the trousers!
0:15:20 > 0:15:23- All about the trousers. - Shall we do trousers every day?
0:15:23 > 0:15:26No, no. Not every day. Keep trousers special.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28LAUGHTER
0:15:28 > 0:15:31- Every couple of days or something? - Yeah, that'll do it.
0:15:31 > 0:15:35OK, Freyja. You are on 14 which means you are still
0:15:35 > 0:15:37the high scorers. How can this possibly be?
0:15:37 > 0:15:39I think I'm at a disadvantage of being
0:15:39 > 0:15:42the only person not wearing trousers
0:15:42 > 0:15:45- on the show.- Can I just say, I'm not wearing trousers either.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47LAUGHTER
0:15:48 > 0:15:50There's a few I know,
0:15:50 > 0:15:52but I'm obviously just going to have to take a risk.
0:15:52 > 0:15:57- I'm going to go for paderborns and hope.- Paderborns.- Yeah.
0:15:57 > 0:16:01- Have you ever heard of paderborns? Does it sound faintly familiar?- I...
0:16:01 > 0:16:06- Benali, paderborns?- I know it's a city in Germany.- Oh, no!
0:16:06 > 0:16:07LAUGHTER
0:16:07 > 0:16:08I hope they're from there.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Maybe it'll be a mad
0:16:10 > 0:16:12third pointless on this board. Good luck.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Let's hope so. Is paderborns right?
0:16:15 > 0:16:16How many people said it?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21No!
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Oh, bad luck. I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer
0:16:24 > 0:16:27which means you score the maximum of 100 points,
0:16:27 > 0:16:29taking your total up to an unassailable
0:16:29 > 0:16:31114. Richard.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35Yeah, sorry, Freyja. Benali, you're right. It's a German city, Paderborn.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Annually, they celebrate, rather uniquely, no pants day
0:16:38 > 0:16:40in Paderborn.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43What, just chaps?
0:16:43 > 0:16:47No, women as well. LAUGHTER
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Now then, Lloyd.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52It is your privilege
0:16:52 > 0:16:53to mop up at the end of this round.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55Take us through everything on that board
0:16:55 > 0:16:58and either have a guess at it or...whatever.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00I know three and don't know one,
0:17:00 > 0:17:01so I'll go for churidars.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05Churidars. OK, let's see if
0:17:05 > 0:17:08churidars is a right answer. If so, let's see how many people said it.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13It's right!
0:17:13 > 0:17:16That might mean it's only going in one direction, this.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19And it is!
0:17:19 > 0:17:22- What about that, Lloyd? - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:17:22 > 0:17:25That's yet another pointless.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28It adds yet another £250 to today's jackpot.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30It takes the total up to £7,500.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34It scores you nothing, leaving your total at a brilliant nothing.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36Drew gave us shalwar, you gave us churidars.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39They're from India as well. A tight long-fitting trouser.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41That's five pointless answers in one round.
0:17:41 > 0:17:45It's literally the most successful round we've had in Pointless history.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48Let's fill in the rest of the board.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Jeans was the highest scoring by quite a long way.
0:17:51 > 0:17:5288 points.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55Bell-bottoms would've scored you 11 points.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58And capris would've scored you 9 points.
0:17:58 > 0:18:02Well done if you got any pointless answers on either bored at home.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Thank you, Richard. So, at the end of Round One,
0:18:04 > 0:18:08the losing pair with the highest score is Benali and Freyja.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Well, dear oh dear oh dear.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Somebody had to score high
0:18:13 > 0:18:15and afraid it was you. We can discount the 100
0:18:15 > 0:18:18because you had to find something really low scoring.
0:18:18 > 0:18:2114, who would have thought that would be a score
0:18:21 > 0:18:26- to put you into that position? - Obviously I have to spend more time at home wearing trousers.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Just a bit of time at home wearing trousers might be a start, Benali.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33I am a student. We do spend a lot of time not dressed.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35That's true.
0:18:35 > 0:18:36LAUGHTER
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Speak for yourself!
0:18:38 > 0:18:41The great news is we will see you again next time. Look forward to that.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45Meanwhile, thank you for playing, Freyja and Benali. Brilliant.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47APPLAUSE
0:18:47 > 0:18:50But, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52APPLAUSE
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Now, obviously there's only room for two pairs
0:18:59 > 0:19:01in the head-to-head, so one of the teams
0:19:01 > 0:19:03will be leaving at the end of this rhyme.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06OK, our category for Round Two is...
0:19:06 > 0:19:08Comedy.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11Decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:19:18 > 0:19:22And our Round Two question concerns...
0:19:22 > 0:19:25comedians and comedy partners.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28- Comedians and their comedy partners, Richard.- We'll show you
0:19:28 > 0:19:30six comedians on each pass. We asked 100 people
0:19:30 > 0:19:34the comedy partner with which they are most commonly associated.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37A nice obscure answer, will score fewer points,
0:19:37 > 0:19:39but an incorrect answer will score 100 points.
0:19:39 > 0:19:43So there's going to be six on each pass. 12 answers for you to get at home. Good luck.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46Thank you. So, we are looking for the comedy partners
0:19:46 > 0:19:50who most famously partner these people. Let's see.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Our first list reads like this...
0:19:59 > 0:20:01I'll read those all one more time...
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Now then, Drew.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12OK, I'm not too good at this, but quite enjoy the show
0:20:12 > 0:20:15so I'm going to go with David Mitchell and Howard Webb.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18David Mitchell and Howard Webb.
0:20:18 > 0:20:19We will see if that is right and,
0:20:19 > 0:20:23if it is, let's see how many people said David Mitchell and Howard Webb.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Bad luck, Drew.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32Bad luck. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer
0:20:32 > 0:20:35which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40- Richard.- Sorry. I won't give you the right answer in case Paul or Gwyn want to have a go at that one,
0:20:40 > 0:20:44but I will say Howard Webb is the English referee who officiated the last World Cup final.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48- LAUGHTER - I knew him from somewhere, knew him from somewhere.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50OK. Now then, Paul.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Yeah. Well, there's a few obvious ones there,
0:20:54 > 0:20:57so I'm going to try Stephen Fry
0:20:57 > 0:20:59- and Hugh Lloyd. - Let's see if that's right.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03If it is, let's see how many people knew that answer. Hugh Lloyd.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10Unfortunately that's an incorrect answer, I'm afraid,
0:21:10 > 0:21:12which means you also score the maximum of
0:21:12 > 0:21:15100 points. Wow.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19- From our lowest scoring round possibly to our highest. - Shall we go back to trousers?
0:21:19 > 0:21:22- LAUGHTER DREW:- Please. Thank you very much.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24I won't give you the right answer in case
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Gwyn wants to have a go at that one.
0:21:26 > 0:21:30So, then, Gwyn. You're the last present this board.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33You can fill in all the pieces there if you like.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36I don't know whether this is a dream question for me
0:21:36 > 0:21:39or whether I'm in a dream. It could be either.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41But I think I'll go for Mel Smith
0:21:41 > 0:21:43and Griff Rhys Jones.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46Griff Rhys Jones. OK. That's what you're saying for Mel Smith.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Let's see if that is right and, if it is,
0:21:48 > 0:21:51let's see how many people said it.
0:21:52 > 0:21:53Yes, it's right.
0:21:57 > 0:21:5844.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00APPLAUSE
0:22:00 > 0:22:0244.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04Very well done.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Well done, Gwyn. They starred together on Not the Nine O'Clock News
0:22:07 > 0:22:09and then Alas Smith and Jones.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12I suspect you could probably fill in this board. Dawn French?
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- Jennifer Saunders.- Would have scored you 71. Ronnie Corbett?
0:22:15 > 0:22:19- Ronnie Barker.- Yup. Would've scored you 60, quite low.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Stephen Fry - his partner is?
0:22:21 > 0:22:24- Hugh Laurie.- Yeah. 47. David Mitchell?
0:22:24 > 0:22:27It's not Howard Webb, it's...?
0:22:27 > 0:22:31- You know, I haven't even heard of either of them. - LAUGHTER
0:22:31 > 0:22:32Isn't that ridiculous?
0:22:32 > 0:22:35I've got to say I am very, very big fan of them.
0:22:35 > 0:22:36But I like sketch comedy.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Yours... I know you do a sketch show as well,
0:22:39 > 0:22:43which, to me, that's a bit mucky.
0:22:43 > 0:22:44LAUGHTER
0:22:44 > 0:22:48I quite like Mitchell and Robert Webb.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51Stewart Lee is the best answer. Used to have a double act with?
0:22:51 > 0:22:55- Richard Herring.- Would've scored 2 points, so very well done if you said that.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59Thanks. We're halfway through the round, so let's take a look at those scores.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02Gwyn and Matt. Very much the kings of the castle there on 44.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Then Paul and Eddie, and
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Drew and Lloyd very much
0:23:07 > 0:23:08the dirty rascals there on 100.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10We're going to come back down the line.
0:23:10 > 0:23:14Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:23:15 > 0:23:18OK, we're going to put six more comedians on the board
0:23:18 > 0:23:20and here they are...
0:23:28 > 0:23:30I'll read those one more time...
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Now, remember, we are looking for
0:23:38 > 0:23:41the famous comedy partners of these comedians.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44You're trying to find the one the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:23:44 > 0:23:45So, Matt,
0:23:45 > 0:23:50your father scored the only correct answer in the first pass.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53The high scorers on 100 are these other pairs.
0:23:53 > 0:23:58If you can score 55 more or less, you're through to the head-to-head.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59In that case,
0:23:59 > 0:24:04I think I'm going to go for...
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08There he is, bottom of the table. Is that right?
0:24:08 > 0:24:10How many people said it?
0:24:10 > 0:24:12Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer.
0:24:16 > 0:24:1765.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19APPLAUSE
0:24:21 > 0:24:2365 takes your total up to
0:24:23 > 0:24:25109. Not bad at all, Matt.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Well played. Should see you safely through.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30Stars of Big Night Out, all sorts of things, Vic and Bob.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Now then, Eddie.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35The highest scorers are now Matt and Gwyn on 109.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37If you can score 8 or less,
0:24:37 > 0:24:40you are through to the head-to-head.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45- Well, I know a couple of them up there.- Mm-hmm.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47But there is only one I'm going to go for.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49The great Peter Cook and Dudley Moore.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:24:54 > 0:24:56It's right.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02APPLAUSE
0:25:02 > 0:25:0451. Takes your total up to
0:25:04 > 0:25:08- 151. Richard.- Good answer, Eddie. It's a correct answer.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11We'll have to see if it's good enough to get you through.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13The great Peter Cook and the great Dudley Moore.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16Indeed. Now then, Lloyd.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20Lloyd, the high scorers are Paul and Eddie on 151.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23You're on 100. If you can score 50 or less,
0:25:23 > 0:25:27- you are through to the head-to-head. - Good round for me. I love entertainment.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29So, fingers crossed I get this person right.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31But I don't know who Steve Punt is.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34Ant McPartlin's obviously Declan Donnelly.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37Noel Fielding, Mighty Boosh with Julian - I don't know his surname.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41So I am going to go for Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45So, Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins. Very well said, Lloyd.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48Let's see if that's right. If it is, how many people said it?
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Yes! You've done it.
0:25:57 > 0:25:58Very, very well done.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00APPLAUSE
0:26:02 > 0:26:0510 points for that takes your total to 110.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07Great answer, Lloyd.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09Very well played. Lovely Mel and lovely Sue.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11Mel and Sue. Let's go through
0:26:11 > 0:26:15- the rest of the board. Ant McPartlin? - Declan Donnelly, as we heard.
0:26:15 > 0:26:19It would have scored 74 points. Steve Punt?
0:26:19 > 0:26:22- Hugh Dennis.- Absolutely right. Now starring in Outnumbered.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25That would have scored you 21. And Noel Fielding - you're right it is Julian.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29It's Julian Barratt in the Mighty Boosh - would've scored 1 point.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33- Best answer on the board. So, well done if you got that. - Thank you very much, Richard.
0:26:33 > 0:26:38So, at the end of Round Two, the losing pair with the highest score, Paul and Eddie.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41- It was a tough round, that one. - Yeah.- From double pointless...
0:26:41 > 0:26:46- To 100 for me.- ..to 151. Well, it was a tough board.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50Did you know any of them when we started filling them in?
0:26:50 > 0:26:53When I said Hugh Lloyd, I meant Laurie, but I'd said it.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56It come out as Hugh Lloyd, yeah.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Well, it's a great shame to be saying goodbye to you so soon,
0:26:59 > 0:27:01but we will see you again next time Look forward to it.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05- Meanwhile, thanks for playing. Eddie and Paul, brilliant. - APPLAUSE
0:27:07 > 0:27:11For the remaining two pairs, things get more exciting now as we enter the head-to-head.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13APPLAUSE
0:27:19 > 0:27:21Well done, Drew and Lloyd, Gwyn and Matt.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23You're through to the head-to-head.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26Obviously, only one pair can make it through to today's final
0:27:26 > 0:27:29and play for the jackpot which currently stands at
0:27:29 > 0:27:31- a whopping £7,500. - APPLAUSE
0:27:35 > 0:27:39Now, for each question, each pair needs to give me just one answer.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41You are now allowed to confer. All you have to do
0:27:41 > 0:27:44is answer to score less than the other pair to win that question.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46The first pair to win two questions
0:27:46 > 0:27:49will be playing for today's jackpot. Let's play Pointless.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52APPLAUSE
0:27:55 > 0:27:57OK, here is your first question.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00We give 100 people 100 seconds
0:28:00 > 0:28:06to name as many Von Trapp children as they could. Richard.
0:28:06 > 0:28:11We're looking for first names of any of the seven Von Trapp children from the musical, The Sound of Music.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14OK. Now then, Drew and Lloyd, because you've played best
0:28:14 > 0:28:17throughout the show so far, you get to go first.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20THEY WHISPER
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Em, Kurt.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26- You're going to go for Kurt?- Yes.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28Gwyn and Matt?
0:28:28 > 0:28:29- Let's go Maria?- No.
0:28:29 > 0:28:33- Let's go Greta.- Greta? - Shall we go Greta?- OK.
0:28:35 > 0:28:39- Greta.- You're going to go for Greta. We have Kurt, we have Greta.
0:28:39 > 0:28:43Lloyd and Drew have gone for Kurt. Let's see if that's right and,
0:28:43 > 0:28:46if it is, let's see how many people said Kurt.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50It's right.
0:28:54 > 0:28:5514 for Kurt.
0:28:55 > 0:28:56APPLAUSE
0:29:00 > 0:29:0114 for Kurt.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04Now then, Gwyn and Matt have gone for Greta.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06- A complete guess?- Yeah.
0:29:06 > 0:29:11Greta. Let's find out. Is it right? How many people said it if it is? Greta.
0:29:13 > 0:29:15Bad luck. Unfortunately, Greta an incorrect answer
0:29:15 > 0:29:17which means after the first question,
0:29:17 > 0:29:20Drew and Lloyd are up 1-0. Richard.
0:29:20 > 0:29:24Well played, Drew and Lloyd. You very nearly fluked that, though.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26There's not a Greta, but there is a Gretl.
0:29:26 > 0:29:30So, you were one letter away. And Gretl would've scored you 12 points.
0:29:30 > 0:29:31Let's take a look at all seven
0:29:31 > 0:29:35and see if anyone at home's got all of these.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38Louisa, 7, Brigitta, 9, Friedrich, 11.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41There's Gretl, 12, Kurt, 14,
0:29:41 > 0:29:45Marta, 16, and Liesl, up the top on 25.
0:29:45 > 0:29:46Well done if you got of them.
0:29:46 > 0:29:49Here is your second question. Now, Gwyn and Matt
0:29:49 > 0:29:53you have to win this question to stay in the game. Here it comes.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many
0:29:56 > 0:30:00political party leaders since 1990 who were born in Scotland
0:30:00 > 0:30:02as they could. Richard.
0:30:02 > 0:30:07We're looking for any leader of the Conservative, Labour or Liberal Democrat party
0:30:07 > 0:30:11from 1990 right up through to May 2011
0:30:11 > 0:30:13who was born in Scotland, please. Best of luck.
0:30:13 > 0:30:16OK, now Gwyn and Matt, you go first this time.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20Did he say that was from any political party?
0:30:20 > 0:30:22Any political party...
0:30:22 > 0:30:23Charles Kennedy.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27Now then, Drew and Lloyd, you can continue conferring out loud should you need to.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29No, we don't need to.
0:30:29 > 0:30:33OK, going to the leaders and I can't think of many...
0:30:33 > 0:30:36I can name them but I can't say where they were born.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39So we're going to go with the obvious one with Gordon Brown.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41All we can say.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Gordon Brown, you're going to say.
0:30:43 > 0:30:44We have Charles Kennedy
0:30:44 > 0:30:46and we have Gordon Brown.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49In order, Gwyn and Matt said Charles Kennedy. Is that right?
0:30:49 > 0:30:51If it is, how many people said it?
0:30:52 > 0:30:54Yes. It's right.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01Very well done.
0:31:01 > 0:31:03APPLAUSE
0:31:03 > 0:31:05Very well done.
0:31:06 > 0:31:10So, Drew and Lloyd, let's see. Gordon Brown.
0:31:10 > 0:31:14Is that right? And, if it is, how many people said that?
0:31:14 > 0:31:16It's right.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20APPLAUSE
0:31:20 > 0:31:23It's a very high score. Very well done, Gwyn and Matt.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26You've won that point which means, after two questions,
0:31:26 > 0:31:28it's 1-1. Very exciting, Richard.
0:31:28 > 0:31:32There's six names on this list. Six party leaders since 1990. Let's see if you got them.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35Iain Duncan Smith for the Tories - born in Edinburgh -
0:31:35 > 0:31:36would've scored 9.
0:31:36 > 0:31:37Menzies Campbell for the Lib Dems -
0:31:37 > 0:31:40born in Glasgow - would've scored you 12.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43John Smith, the former Labour leader would've scored you 14.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46There's Charles Kennedy, 15 - led the Lib Dems, of course.
0:31:46 > 0:31:50Born in Inverness. Tony Blair - born in Edinburgh - would've scored 22.
0:31:50 > 0:31:51Would have been a very good answer.
0:31:51 > 0:31:56And Gordon Brown, 67 points - born in Glasgow.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59Thank you very much. Now here is your third question.
0:31:59 > 0:32:01Whoever wins this question is through to the final
0:32:01 > 0:32:04and playing for that massive jackpot. OK, here we go.
0:32:04 > 0:32:08We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many
0:32:08 > 0:32:11Barbra Streisand films as they could.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13Richard.
0:32:13 > 0:32:15Yeah, looking for any Barbra Streisand film
0:32:15 > 0:32:19made for general cinema release up to April 2011.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22She has to have an acting or a voice credit.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25As always, no short films, TV films, anything like that.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29OK. Now then, Drew and Lloyd, you go first this time.
0:32:29 > 0:32:31I know she's a singer. I know she was in...
0:32:34 > 0:32:35Anything?
0:32:35 > 0:32:38It's not right, I know, but Little Women? I can't name anything.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40OK. Little Women, you're saying.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43Gwyn and Matt, it's over to you.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46We've got some answers, but we're not sure on either of them.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49And then my dad pulled another corker from the bag.
0:32:49 > 0:32:52- If it's right.- A corker.
0:32:52 > 0:32:53It's called Yentl.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56- Yentl.- I think that's a good film. I think so.
0:32:56 > 0:33:00Whoever wins this question goes through to the final to play for a jackpot of £7,500.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03OK, Little Women, say Drew and Lloyd.
0:33:03 > 0:33:05Let's see if that's right.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10No! I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Bad luck, Drew and Lloyd.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Yentl is what Gwyn and Matt are seeing.
0:33:15 > 0:33:20All it has to be is correct. Let's see if it is. Yentl. Is it right?
0:33:22 > 0:33:24It is! Well done.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31Very well done. 14 for Yentl.
0:33:31 > 0:33:32CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:33:32 > 0:33:34That's a great answer.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37A lovely low score but all it had to be was correct.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39But it means that, after three questions,
0:33:39 > 0:33:42Gwyn and Matt are through to the final 2-1.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45Well played. She starred, produced and co-wrote Yentl.
0:33:45 > 0:33:46She did it all.
0:33:46 > 0:33:51Let's look at all the answers. There's a few pointless ones. Let's look through them all.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54She plays a New York housewife in Up the Sandbox. That was a pointless answer.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57She directed and starred in The Prince of Tides - pointless as well.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00The Main Event and All Night Long - both pointless answers.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03Nuts and For Pete's Sake both scored 1.
0:34:03 > 0:34:04Well done if you got any there.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06The Owl and the Pussycat, 1.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09The Mirror Has Two Faces with Jeff Bridges scored 1.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11The musical On a Clear Day You Can See Forever scored 1.
0:34:11 > 0:34:15Funny Lady, the follow-up to Funny Girl, would've scored two.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17The wonderful What's Up, Doc? with Ryan O'Neal scored 4.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20A Star Is Born, 6.
0:34:20 > 0:34:24Hello Dolly, 7. There's Little Fockers, the follow-up to Meet the Fockers,
0:34:24 > 0:34:28that scored 9. That's the closest we got to Little Women there.
0:34:28 > 0:34:30The Way We Were, 11. Yentl, 14. Meet the Fockers, 20.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33And Funny Girl, top of the pile, with 21.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36So, the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head is Drew and Lloyd.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39Dear oh dear. Did you know any of those ones on the board?
0:34:39 > 0:34:42Yes. Once you see them, you know them, don't you?
0:34:42 > 0:34:44I find I almost invariably do.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46LAUGHTER
0:34:46 > 0:34:49It has been a real treat having you both on the show.
0:34:49 > 0:34:53You're been fantastic contestants, Drew and Lloyd. Thanks for playing.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55APPLAUSE
0:34:57 > 0:34:59For Gwyn and Matt, it's now time for our Pointless final
0:34:59 > 0:35:03and the chance to win our jackpot of £7,500.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05APPLAUSE
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Congratulations, Gwyn and Matt. You've fought off
0:35:13 > 0:35:17- all the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy. - APPLAUSE
0:35:21 > 0:35:25You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot. At the end of today's show,
0:35:25 > 0:35:28- the jackpot stands at £7,500. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:35:28 > 0:35:30That would be nice! Ho ho!
0:35:32 > 0:35:34Now, the rules are very simple.
0:35:34 > 0:35:38To win, you have to find a pointless answer - one that none of our 100 people gave.
0:35:38 > 0:35:43Then you get the money. First, choose a category. You can choose from these three options.
0:35:43 > 0:35:44They are...
0:35:51 > 0:35:54- I'd be inclined to probably go towards Cities.- Geography.
0:35:54 > 0:35:59- We like geography. - Classical Music...
0:35:59 > 0:36:03- It depends who, but I haven't got a broad enough knowledge for that. - Me neither.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05- I think we're going to choose Cities.- Cities it is.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07OK, let's find out what the question is.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many
0:36:11 > 0:36:14Commonwealth capitals as they could. Commonwealth capitals, Richard.
0:36:14 > 0:36:18Yeah, we're looking for any capital city of any country which is
0:36:18 > 0:36:21a member of the Commonwealth of Nations as of May 2011.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23Where a country has more than one capital,
0:36:23 > 0:36:26we will accept any of those as an answer. Best of luck, guys.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29You now have one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32All you need to win that £7,500
0:36:32 > 0:36:34is for just one those answers to be pointless.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36Your 60 seconds start now.
0:36:36 > 0:36:39- All right.- Countries...
0:36:39 > 0:36:43- What countries do you know in the Commonwealth?- Only the obvious ones. Canada, New Zealand.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46- Australia.- OK. Know the capital cities for them?- Yeah.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49OK, so that's three.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51They're the more obvious ones, though.
0:36:51 > 0:36:55Let's try and think of the least obvious Commonwealth capitals
0:36:55 > 0:36:58and see if we know the capitals for them.
0:36:58 > 0:37:03Like what? Give me a name of another least obvious Commonwealth?
0:37:04 > 0:37:08Some of the African nations are part of the Commonwealth, aren't they?
0:37:08 > 0:37:13Kenya perhaps? Is Kenya part of the Commonwealth?
0:37:13 > 0:37:15It may have been at one time.
0:37:15 > 0:37:20What about India, Sri Lanka?
0:37:20 > 0:37:23There's a couple in Sri Lanka.
0:37:23 > 0:37:27Shall we go with Sri Lanka? Formerly known as Ceylon.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29Colombo, is it? Is it still Colombo?
0:37:29 > 0:37:33- Or have they changed their name? - I don't know.- Five seconds left.
0:37:37 > 0:37:39OK, there is your minute gone.
0:37:39 > 0:37:43We were looking for Commonwealth capitals.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45I now need three answers from you.
0:37:45 > 0:37:48- Um, Nairobi.- Nairobi.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50- Ottawa.- Ottawa.- Colombo.- Colombo.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52Of those three,
0:37:52 > 0:37:55which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:37:55 > 0:37:58- I'd say Colombo was probably the best.- OK, we'll put Colombo third.
0:37:58 > 0:38:02- Nairobi in the second place. - OK, Nairobi in second place.
0:38:02 > 0:38:06Ottawa first. So, Ottawa, Nairobi, Colombo. There we are.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09We'll put them on the board in that order. Here they are...
0:38:14 > 0:38:17Right. We were looking for Commonwealth capital cities.
0:38:17 > 0:38:21You said this was your least confident answer. You only have to find one pointless answer
0:38:21 > 0:38:24to win that £7,500 jackpot.
0:38:24 > 0:38:28Let's see how many people said Ottawa. Is it right?
0:38:28 > 0:38:29How many people said it?
0:38:33 > 0:38:34It's right.
0:38:34 > 0:38:39This is your first shot at that jackpot of £7,500.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42If this goes all the way down to 0, you leave you with that money.
0:38:42 > 0:38:44Down into the 20s it goes.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46And there it stays.
0:38:46 > 0:38:47APPLAUSE
0:38:48 > 0:38:5226. So, unfortunately, that's not a pointless answer.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55But, you sort of knew that. You put it first.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58OK, you only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00What would you do with £7,500, Gwyn?
0:39:00 > 0:39:03- Give me half! - LAUGHTER
0:39:03 > 0:39:07What would you do with £3,750, Gwyn!?
0:39:07 > 0:39:10You're good at maths! I would probably get a campervan
0:39:10 > 0:39:15and take my family around parts of the UK that we haven't seen.
0:39:15 > 0:39:20- So probably go round and... - The British Isles? Very nice indeed.
0:39:20 > 0:39:21How about you, Matt?
0:39:21 > 0:39:25Eh, at the moment, I get around on a pushbike
0:39:25 > 0:39:28and there's a really nasty hill that I have to do
0:39:28 > 0:39:30at least three times a day.
0:39:30 > 0:39:32So, a car might be useful.
0:39:32 > 0:39:37OK, well, £3,750 would be quite a help, wouldn't it?
0:39:37 > 0:39:41Let's hope one of these remaining two answers will win it for you.
0:39:41 > 0:39:45Your second answer was Nairobi. This has to be right
0:39:45 > 0:39:49and it has to be pointless for you to a jackpot of £7,500.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52Let's see if it is right and how many people said Nairobi.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57It's right.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00It's right. 26, Ottawa scored.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02Let's see how Nairobi fares for you.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05This has to go all the way down to 0 for you to leave with that money.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08Down it goes to single figures... 7!
0:40:08 > 0:40:09APPLAUSE
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Never mind.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16We're travelling very much in the right direction.
0:40:16 > 0:40:19We've come from 26 down to 7.
0:40:19 > 0:40:22You only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:40:22 > 0:40:26You said this was the answer you had the most faith in to be pointless,
0:40:26 > 0:40:29but it has to be pointless for you to win £7,500.
0:40:29 > 0:40:33Let's see if it's right, that's the first thing has to be.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36And then let's see how far down it goes.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39Colombo. Very, very best of luck.
0:40:41 > 0:40:43It's right! It's right.
0:40:43 > 0:40:48We've gone from 26 for Ottawa down to 7 for Nairobi.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50Let's see how far down we can go with Colombo.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53It's into single figures. Down it goes. Still going.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56Yes! You've done it! Very well done.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Fantastic.
0:40:58 > 0:41:01MATT SCREAMS
0:41:04 > 0:41:06We got it, mate, we got it!
0:41:06 > 0:41:08Yes!
0:41:11 > 0:41:13Yes!
0:41:15 > 0:41:18- Yes!- Well done. That's nice.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21Very well done, Matt. Very well done.
0:41:21 > 0:41:24- And the trophy! - LAUGHTER
0:41:24 > 0:41:30- Congratulations.- Oh, beauty!- You manage to find that all-important elusive pointless answer
0:41:30 > 0:41:33which means you go home with the jackpot of £7,500.
0:41:33 > 0:41:34Very, very well done.
0:41:34 > 0:41:36CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:41:44 > 0:41:48Very well played. Good answer, Gwyn. There's two capitals of Sri Lanka - both pointless.
0:41:48 > 0:41:52There's Colombo and Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte.
0:41:52 > 0:41:56- And I'm amazed you went for Colombo. - That's a type of flower pot, isn't it!
0:41:56 > 0:42:01Let's take a look at the rest of the pointless answers. See if you got some of these at home.
0:42:01 > 0:42:06Bloemfontein, which is the judicial capital of South Africa.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08Cape Town, the legislative capital of South Africa.
0:42:08 > 0:42:12Funafuti, which is Tuvalu. All of those pointless answers.
0:42:12 > 0:42:15Georgetown, which is Guyana, Kampala in Uganda,
0:42:15 > 0:42:17Nicosia in Cyprus - all of those pointless.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20Abuja of Nigeria, that's also pointless. A few others as well.
0:42:20 > 0:42:24Very well done if you got any of those pointless ones. Well done, guys.
0:42:24 > 0:42:28A brilliant jackpot, brilliant play throughout and a great answer with Colombo.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32Well, thanks once again to our winning players,
0:42:32 > 0:42:38Gwyn and Matt, who go away with today's jackpot of £7,500.
0:42:38 > 0:42:39APPLAUSE
