0:00:18 > 0:00:20CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:24Thank you.

0:00:24 > 0:00:29I'm Alexander Armstrong. Welcome to Pointless, the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.

0:00:29 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.

0:00:34 > 0:00:37Now, first we welcome back Kat and Gemma.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39You were on the show last time.

0:00:39 > 0:00:43Everyone gets two chances to reach the final. This is your last chance.

0:00:43 > 0:00:44Remind us what happened.

0:00:44 > 0:00:50We got to the head-to-head but unfortunately Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was our undoing.

0:00:50 > 0:00:54- "We Are Statues, a new song from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang." - If only!

0:00:54 > 0:01:01- Kat, what do you like to do in your spare time?- Sport is a big part of our sort of our day-to-day life

0:01:01 > 0:01:05because my husband is a professional cage fighter, so that takes up...

0:01:05 > 0:01:10- What? You didn't tell us that last time!- Wow.

0:01:10 > 0:01:14- He's a professional cage fighter? - Yep.- How do you fight a cage?

0:01:14 > 0:01:15LAUGHTER

0:01:15 > 0:01:17It's not as easy as it looks!

0:01:17 > 0:01:22- I always imagined that it happened on a cage that was sort of suspended above a baying crowd.- Yeah!

0:01:22 > 0:01:25Wouldn't that be brilliant, if it were lowered in literally a cage?

0:01:25 > 0:01:28I'm sure I've seen it in some sort of futuristic film.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31- It's a good idea. - It's a cracking idea.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34- We'll start that, promote it ourselves. - Suspended cage fighting.- Yes!

0:01:34 > 0:01:37I think Richard would beat you. Sorry.

0:01:37 > 0:01:42I'm not saying we're going to fight! I'm saying we're going to promote it.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44There's only one way to find out, isn't there? Come on.

0:01:44 > 0:01:49- This is kind of shaped a bit like...- Come on. Come on, now. I don't know why this would help.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53Do you know what? After this many episodes, I would love to deck you.

0:01:53 > 0:01:56LAUGHTER

0:01:56 > 0:01:58APPLAUSE

0:01:58 > 0:02:02- Oh, you would be CONSUMED with remorse.- Just a...boof!

0:02:02 > 0:02:05I could just see you flying back into that column.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08Red X comes up as you fly into it.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11Urrrgghh! "A hundred"!

0:02:11 > 0:02:15And then I'd come at you and then go...miss, and then trip over there.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18- "Pointless"!- I'll just... LAUGHTER

0:02:20 > 0:02:23Yeah, yeah, OK. Yeah.

0:02:23 > 0:02:28- Lovely to have you back, Kat and Gemma. Let's hope we see you all the way to the final.- Fingers crossed.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31Next we welcome Tim and Anna. Now, how do you two know each other?

0:02:31 > 0:02:37- Um...I'm her stepdad. She's my favourite stepdaughter. - Only stepdaughter.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40But favourite only stepdaughter.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43- Definitely favourite. - Where have you come from, Tim?

0:02:43 > 0:02:46I'm originally from London and now I'm in Milton Keynes.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49Yep, and I was in Milton Keynes and now I'm in London.

0:02:49 > 0:02:54- Tim, what do you do?- Um, I'm a currently unemployed IT manager,

0:02:54 > 0:02:59but what I'm trying to do at the moment, I'm trying to set up a business baking cakes.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02- You've gone from IT...to cakes? - To baking cakes, yes.

0:03:02 > 0:03:06You see, that's brilliant. It's a massive industry now.

0:03:06 > 0:03:11- Cupcakes.- No, absolutely not. - Not cupcakes?- No.- Oversubscribed?

0:03:11 > 0:03:15I'm trying to fill the niche of people who want cakes made in the shape of their pets.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18So I make dog cakes and things like that.

0:03:18 > 0:03:23- Wow.- Could you make me a fishcake? LAUGHTER

0:03:23 > 0:03:26Never heard that one before(!)

0:03:26 > 0:03:30- Well, very best of luck. So how far have you got on setting up this business?- How far have I got?- Yeah.

0:03:30 > 0:03:35- Um, I've got a couple of cake tins. And a...- And an oven.

0:03:35 > 0:03:40And an oven, and a humungous bag of flour. But I have the ambition.

0:03:40 > 0:03:46You have the ambition and now you've just announced it to a peak-time afternoon audience.

0:03:46 > 0:03:50- Yes.- Fantastic. Well, very best of luck.- If I hold my business card up.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52- Brilliant. Now, Anna.- Yes. - What do you do?

0:03:52 > 0:03:58- I work in recruitment for a fashion retail company.- What would you like to see come up this afternoon, Anna?

0:03:58 > 0:04:01- Anything to do with fashion, that would be fantastic.- Great.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05Celebrities and possibly film, but I know that makes me sound a little bit...

0:04:05 > 0:04:10I don't know, like I'm leaning on one side of things, but I'm hoping those come up.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12- Very best of luck to the pair of you.- Thank you.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14And next we welcome back Marco and Martin.

0:04:14 > 0:04:18You were also on the show last time. Remind us what happened.

0:04:18 > 0:04:23Er, we went out on that one due to the fact that Craig Bellamy is Welsh and not Irish,

0:04:23 > 0:04:27- so I kind of blame him, really, a bit.- Yeah, no, entirely his fault.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29What are you hoping is going to come up, Marco?

0:04:29 > 0:04:34Um...Welsh football is obviously a speciality of ours, but I think we'll go back to films.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37We're OK with films. We were in a happy place there.

0:04:37 > 0:04:41You were good on films. First round, that was a great round for you.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45- Martin, anything else you'd like to throw in.- Possibly music.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48I used to DJ part-time, weddings, birthdays, that kind of thing,

0:04:48 > 0:04:50so the cheesier the better, really.

0:04:50 > 0:04:55- Very good. You say you used to? - Yeah, I haven't done it for a while now, no.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Well, he's got a little bit more on his plate now.- I have.

0:04:58 > 0:05:02Ah, of course, yes! You have twins. In fact, both of you...you're both fathers of twins.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Not with each other, obviously.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08- No.- Although it looks like we're both expecting a couple more.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12- Yes, mine are almost a year. - Mine are 14.- Wow. Wow.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15So are you forever handing out handy tips, then, Marco?

0:05:15 > 0:05:18That's right, yeah. I think he's just about got the hang of it now.

0:05:18 > 0:05:24Marco and Martin, it's great having you back. Let's hope we'll see you beyond the second round this time.

0:05:24 > 0:05:28Finally we've got Min and Alison. How do you two know each other?

0:05:28 > 0:05:32Er, we met at school. I'm not telling you how many years ago, but we've been friends ever since.

0:05:32 > 0:05:36- So what do you do now, Alison? - I'm in international marketing, market research.

0:05:36 > 0:05:40- Um, and, Min, what do you do? - I'm a dog behaviourist.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43Oh, come on!

0:05:45 > 0:05:49There's cage fighters, people making cakes out of dogs, there's this.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53- I'm beginning to think this is one big practical joke on you and I. - Yes, I think it is.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55Erm, what's that mean?

0:05:55 > 0:06:00If people have got barking or difficult dogs, they're having problems with a little doggy,

0:06:00 > 0:06:05that perhaps it pulls a bit too much or meets and greets a bit too enthusiastically

0:06:05 > 0:06:09or savages, you know, other little doggies...

0:06:09 > 0:06:12- What it really wants is a cake. - Probably, yeah.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15I mean, I must talk to Tim later!

0:06:15 > 0:06:19- But I go and sort the doggies out for them.- You're a dog whisperer.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21I'm a dog whisperer, yes.

0:06:21 > 0:06:26- What would you like to see come up this afternoon, Min? - Serial killers, preferably.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28LAUGHTER

0:06:28 > 0:06:32- O...K.- Oh, dear.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Um...OK, serial killers. Anything else?

0:06:35 > 0:06:38Um...lemurs?

0:06:38 > 0:06:39Serial killers and lemurs! OK.

0:06:39 > 0:06:43Anything else, Alison, you'd like to throw in the mix?

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Um...maybe Blackadder?

0:06:45 > 0:06:49I have a dog called Baldrick, so a bit of Blackadder wouldn't go amiss.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52Very good indeed. Well, let's hope it does.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Very best of luck to the pair of you. Great to have you here.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58We will find out more about all of you as the show goes on.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01There's only one person left for me to introduce.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04A man who lives at Number 1 Obscurity Avenue. Ring top bell.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07- He's my Pointless friend, he's Richard.- Hiya.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09- Hiya.- Afternoon.

0:07:09 > 0:07:14- The top of the afternoon to you. - What a great line-up of people.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16What a line-up, certainly!

0:07:16 > 0:07:20Should be a cracking show, shouldn't it? I don't believe a word of what I've heard,

0:07:20 > 0:07:25- but...if half of it's true, it's spectacular, isn't it?- Isn't it? - We've got two returning pairs.

0:07:25 > 0:07:29Kat and Gemma made it to the head-to-head last time, so you would suspect they'd do well,

0:07:29 > 0:07:35and Marco and Martin got to the second round, so it should be a very tough show, but a big jackpot.

0:07:35 > 0:07:39- Should be an absolute cracker, I think.- Hear, hear.

0:07:39 > 0:07:44We put our questions to 100 people before the show, but we're after the obscure answers they didn't get.

0:07:44 > 0:07:49To stay in the game with a chance to win, our players need to score as few points as they can,

0:07:49 > 0:07:55but what everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer, an answer that none of our 100 people gave.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58And each time that happens we will add £250 to the jackpot.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01Nobody won the jackpot last time so we add another £1,000,

0:08:01 > 0:08:07so today's jackpot starts off, as Richard says, at the massive figure of £10,250.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14Right. Let's play Pointless.

0:08:16 > 0:08:21In the first round, each of you must give me one answer, and you cannot confer.

0:08:21 > 0:08:25The team with the highest score at the end will be eliminated.

0:08:25 > 0:08:31If anyone gives me an incorrect answer, they score the maximum of 100 points, so try and avoid those.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34OK, our first category this afternoon is...

0:08:34 > 0:08:39- You go first.- Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, and who second.

0:08:41 > 0:08:45And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:08:45 > 0:08:53We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many words ending in "..inch" as they could.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55"..inch", Richard.

0:08:55 > 0:08:59Yeah, we're looking for any word in the Oxford English Dictionary online edition

0:08:59 > 0:09:04that ends "..inch". As always, no hyphenated words or proper nouns,

0:09:04 > 0:09:05places or people's names.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09We won't accept the word "inch" itself, I'm afraid,

0:09:09 > 0:09:13and in case of doubt occasionally we might ask you to spell your answer.

0:09:13 > 0:09:17- Very, very best of luck. - OK, thank you very much indeed.

0:09:17 > 0:09:23Right, Kat and Gemma, you all drew lots before the show and this afternoon you get to go first.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26Remember, we are looking for words ending in "..inch".

0:09:26 > 0:09:30I'm going to have to try and go for something that I know is safe

0:09:30 > 0:09:36and hope that Kat's got some time to think about it and think of an absolute...belter, basically.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Erm, so I'm going to go with "cinch".

0:09:38 > 0:09:41That's so weird, it's exactly what I was thinking of. "Cinch."

0:09:41 > 0:09:46You're hoping to score as few points as possible. Let's see if "cinch" is a correct answer,

0:09:46 > 0:09:49and, if it is, how many people said "cinch".

0:09:51 > 0:09:52It's right.

0:09:58 > 0:10:03- Not bad. 34 for "cinch". Richard?- Yeah, well played, Gemma.

0:10:03 > 0:10:08- If something's a cinch, it's simple, easy. It's a cinch.- Very good. Tim.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11- Um...I'll say "bullfinch".- Like the way you're thinking there, Tim.

0:10:11 > 0:10:17Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many people said "bullfinch".

0:10:25 > 0:10:31Very well done, Tim, that's a great answer. 4 for "bullfinch".

0:10:31 > 0:10:35- Richard?- Yeah, terrific answer, Tim. Very well done, great start.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Bullfinch. It's a bullfinch.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40No-one knows why they're called bullfinches.

0:10:40 > 0:10:44They've got quite a thick neck but, apart from that, nobody knows.

0:10:44 > 0:10:45Martin.

0:10:46 > 0:10:52I'm going to stay in a similar area...and go with "chaffinch".

0:10:52 > 0:10:55I see quite a lot of birds coming up, Richard.

0:10:55 > 0:10:59"Chaffinch". Let's see if that's right. You're hoping to score as few points as possible.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01How many people said "chaffinch"?

0:11:03 > 0:11:04It's right.

0:11:11 > 0:11:1320 for "chaffinch".

0:11:13 > 0:11:16Yeah, pretty good answer, Martin.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19Chaffinch obviously another very popular British bird.

0:11:19 > 0:11:23That gets its name for eating chaff, because you often find them in barns.

0:11:23 > 0:11:24Alison.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28Oh...I think I'm going to stick with the bird theme,

0:11:28 > 0:11:31and I'll go with "hawfinch".

0:11:31 > 0:11:34- "Hawfinch".- "Hawfinch".

0:11:34 > 0:11:37- "Hawfinch".- "Hawfinch".- Right, OK. Well, let's see.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41This could be a spectacular answer. You're saying "hawfinch".

0:11:41 > 0:11:45Let's see if it's right and, if it is, how many people said "hawfinch".

0:11:48 > 0:11:49Very well done, it's right.

0:11:55 > 0:12:00And it's pointless! That's an excellent answer. Very well done, Alison.

0:12:00 > 0:12:06It adds £250 to today's jackpot, takes the total up to £10,500, and it scores you nothing.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09That's a great answer, Alison. Very well done. Richard.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11Brilliant answer, Alison, very well played.

0:12:11 > 0:12:15If you ask a Cockney what a hawfinch is, he'll say, "It's about that."

0:12:15 > 0:12:17LAUGHTER

0:12:17 > 0:12:21Now, we're halfway through the round, so let's take a look at the scores as they stand.

0:12:21 > 0:12:25Alison and Min, you are on nothing. Fantastic score.

0:12:25 > 0:12:29Tim, who introduced us to this bird line - well done, thank you -

0:12:29 > 0:12:32you scored 4 for that, great score.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Then we go up to 20, where we find Martin and Marco,

0:12:35 > 0:12:37then up to 34, where we find Gemma and Kat.

0:12:37 > 0:12:42So, Kat, we need an absolutely genius answer from you in the next pass.

0:12:42 > 0:12:47Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:12:49 > 0:12:52We're looking for words ending in "..inch".

0:12:52 > 0:12:55Min, the high scorers are Kat and Gemma on 34.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58If you can score 33 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:12:58 > 0:13:02Well, given that Alison was so brilliant,

0:13:02 > 0:13:06I think I've got the leeway to play it quite safe.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09So I'm going to say "winch".

0:13:09 > 0:13:11There is a red line.

0:13:11 > 0:13:16Below that, through to the next round. Let's see if "winch" is right and how many people said it.

0:13:17 > 0:13:18It's right.

0:13:26 > 0:13:2844 for "winch", Min. That takes your total up to 44.

0:13:28 > 0:13:33Yeah, not a bad tactic, Min, but probably a few more points than you would have liked.

0:13:33 > 0:13:38- Winch, any sort of pulley that hoists things up. A winch.- A winch.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40Marco, we come to you.

0:13:40 > 0:13:43The high scorers are now Min and Alison on 44. You're on 20.

0:13:43 > 0:13:47If you can score 23 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:13:47 > 0:13:52I'm going to stay on the bird theme, and I'm going to go with goldfinch.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54"Goldfinch", says Marco.

0:13:54 > 0:13:59Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said "goldfinch".

0:13:59 > 0:14:01It's right.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07Very well done indeed.

0:14:07 > 0:14:103 that scores you. Very well said, Marco.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14Takes your total up to 23. You're through to the next round.

0:14:14 > 0:14:19Yeah, well played, Marco. Everyone's going for very similar answers but they all seem to be working.

0:14:19 > 0:14:23There's a James Bond film where one of the villains looks after goldfinches,

0:14:23 > 0:14:25so...he's a "goldfincher". HE SIGHS

0:14:27 > 0:14:30- It's not easy, you know, this. - No, it's not, it's not.

0:14:30 > 0:14:34Anna, you're on 4. The high scorers are Min and Alison on 44.

0:14:34 > 0:14:37If you can score 39 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:14:37 > 0:14:43OK. Erm, pretty much all of the answers I've thought of have already come up.

0:14:43 > 0:14:47I don't know that many birds, so how many people have said birds I've never heard of is fantastic.

0:14:47 > 0:14:52Erm, pretty much the only word I can think of now is "clinch",

0:14:52 > 0:14:54as in clinching a deal.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57There's your red line. Now then, Anna, if your "clinch"

0:14:57 > 0:15:01can get you below that red line, you are through to the next round.

0:15:01 > 0:15:05Let's see if it's right and, if it is, let's see how many people said "clinch".

0:15:05 > 0:15:06It's right.

0:15:09 > 0:15:14And you've done it. Very well done, 20 for "clinch".

0:15:14 > 0:15:1820 for "clinch" takes your total up to 24, you're through to the next round.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20- Richard.- Yeah, very well played, Anna.

0:15:20 > 0:15:24"Clinch." It's an English word that ends "..inch".

0:15:24 > 0:15:27"Clinch." Kat.

0:15:27 > 0:15:31You're on 34, the high scorers, on 44, are Min and Alison.

0:15:31 > 0:15:36If you can score 9 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:15:36 > 0:15:399 or less.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42Erm...well, my bird knowledge is pretty nonexistent,

0:15:42 > 0:15:46so I'm going to have to just cut that option off, and, er,

0:15:46 > 0:15:49"clinch" was one of my options, so the only other word that

0:15:49 > 0:15:53I can think of was actually a film, The Grinch, with Jim Carrey,

0:15:53 > 0:15:55so I'm assuming "grinch" is a word.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58If it's not then I can't think of anything else, so...I'm just going

0:15:58 > 0:16:02to have to go with "grinch" and hope that nobody else thought of it.

0:16:02 > 0:16:08There's your red line. If you get below that red line with "grinch", you are through to the next round.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11Let's see if it's right and, if it is, how many people said "grinch".

0:16:14 > 0:16:15It's right.

0:16:19 > 0:16:20Go, go, go.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26That was a great answer. "Grinch" scored you 19.

0:16:26 > 0:16:30- Takes your total up to 53. Richard. - Yeah, valiant effort.

0:16:30 > 0:16:34A spoilsport or a killjoy, really, and famous in The Grinch Who Stole Christmas.

0:16:34 > 0:16:37It's a very good answer but not quite low enough.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Er, there are a few more birds out there.

0:16:39 > 0:16:44"Finch" itself would have been a big scorer. "Greenfinch" would have scored 3 points.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47There's another couple of finches on this pointless answers list.

0:16:47 > 0:16:50There's the hawfinch that we had from Alison, brilliant answer.

0:16:50 > 0:16:54The piefinch, a regional word for chaffinch, would have been pointless.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57The rosefinch, that was pointless.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00"Scrinch", that's a pointless answer, to sit closely or squeeze together.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02"Skinch", to restrict the supply of something.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05"Swinch", to toil or labour.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07"Topinch", which literally means to pinch,

0:17:07 > 0:17:10it comes from Shakespeare's Merry Wives Of Windsor.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13"Unclinch", different way of saying "unclench".

0:17:13 > 0:17:16And "wrinch", which also... it's a variant spelling of "rinse".

0:17:16 > 0:17:19Let's see the ones that the most of our 100 people said.

0:17:19 > 0:17:24"Winch" actually the third biggest of all, but saw you through to the next round, so good answer, 44.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28"Finch" itself would have scored you 64, and, right at the top,

0:17:28 > 0:17:30"pinch", on 82.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32Thanks very much, Richard.

0:17:32 > 0:17:36At the end of Round One, the losing pair, with the highest score, it's Kat and Gemma.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39Oh, dear, at 53! Not a bad score at all, and yet here it is.

0:17:39 > 0:17:44- The high score at the end of the round. You were through to the head-to-head last time.- I know!

0:17:44 > 0:17:48- And very nearly through to the final.- You win some, you lose some, but taking part,

0:17:48 > 0:17:52- I suppose, is... Well, actually no. - No!- We wanted to win.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55No, it's bitterly disappointing. And disappointing for us.

0:17:55 > 0:18:01- We have to say goodbye to you. You've been fantastic contestants. Thank you so much.- BOTH: Thank you.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12There's only room for two pairs in the head-to-head,

0:18:12 > 0:18:16so one of the teams now will be leaving us at the end of this round.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19Our Round Two category this afternoon is...

0:18:19 > 0:18:20television.

0:18:20 > 0:18:24Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second?

0:18:24 > 0:18:29And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33OK, so our Round Two question this afternoon concerns

0:18:33 > 0:18:36TV detectives and their shows.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38TV detectives and their shows. Richard.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41Yeah, we're going to show you a list of six TV detectives on each pass.

0:18:41 > 0:18:46We asked 100 people, "In which TV series did these detectives first appear in?"

0:18:46 > 0:18:51Give us an obscure answer and you'll score fewer points, but an incorrect answer and you'll score 100.

0:18:51 > 0:18:55It's going to be 12 detectives in all, 12 series to guess at home.

0:18:55 > 0:19:00Thank you. We are looking for the TV shows in which these detectives first appeared, and we have got...

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Now, there we are.

0:19:26 > 0:19:31- Anna.- This is not going to go well. I literally know nothing about detective shows,

0:19:31 > 0:19:34despite my gran being an avid watcher.

0:19:34 > 0:19:38I should have watched some with her sometime, so I'm going to get this completely wrong.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40I don't know a single one!

0:19:40 > 0:19:41Erm...I'm going to go...

0:19:43 > 0:19:49DI Burnside and...Midsomer Murders. That's the only detective show I can think of.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51Midsomer Murders you're saying for DI Burnside.

0:19:51 > 0:19:57Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people knew that answer. Good luck.

0:19:57 > 0:20:01Ooh, bad luck. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, Anna, I'm sorry.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04That scores you the maximum of 100 points. Richard.

0:20:04 > 0:20:09Yeah, sorry, Anna, your grandmother will be screaming at the television as we speak.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12I won't give the correct answer in case Martin or Alison have a go.

0:20:12 > 0:20:18- OK, now, Martin. Martin. Is this a good topic for you?- It's better.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21I know these. At least one of these. So I am going to go...

0:20:21 > 0:20:27for the bottom one, DI Sam Tyler, and that's Life On Mars.

0:20:27 > 0:20:30Life On Mars for Sam Tyler, you're saying.

0:20:30 > 0:20:35Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people knew that answer.

0:20:35 > 0:20:36It's right.

0:20:40 > 0:20:4215.

0:20:42 > 0:20:43APPLAUSE

0:20:45 > 0:20:47Well played, Martin, 15 for Life On Mars. Richard.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50Yeah, good answer, Martin.

0:20:50 > 0:20:54John Simm, of course, plays DCI Sam Tyler, and Philip Glenister as Gene Hunt.

0:20:54 > 0:20:56A sort of time-travel cop series.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58Very, very good indeed.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01Now, Alison, you're the last person to have this board,

0:21:01 > 0:21:05so you can go through and supply all the answers if you like, and then submit one at the end.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08Unfortunately I can do absolutely nothing of the sort.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10Erm...I know I know James Hathaway,

0:21:10 > 0:21:12and when you tell me

0:21:12 > 0:21:15I shall know the answer,

0:21:15 > 0:21:17and the same with Jack Regan,

0:21:17 > 0:21:19but...I have not a clue.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23And I KNOW James Hathaway, I think he's in Oxford,

0:21:23 > 0:21:25and he's been on recently, and he's in a second series.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28I can't remember the name of the series!

0:21:28 > 0:21:31Erm...I'm going to go for James Hathaway, Midsomer Murders,

0:21:31 > 0:21:35and I know it's wrong, it's the other one.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38James Hathaway, Midsomer Murders, you're saying.

0:21:38 > 0:21:42Let's see if it's right and, if it is, let's see how many people knew that answer.

0:21:45 > 0:21:46Nooo.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49Bad luck, Alison, I'm afraid another incorrect answer,

0:21:49 > 0:21:52which means you also score the maximum of 100 points. Richard.

0:21:52 > 0:21:57- Yeah, sorry, Alison. Now Anna's gran is screaming at YOU through the TV set.- Yes!

0:21:57 > 0:22:00But you're absolutely thinking along the right lines.

0:22:00 > 0:22:04- It is in Oxford. He is the sidekick to Lewis. Lewis.- I knew it!

0:22:04 > 0:22:07- Played by Laurence Fox. Would have scored you 13 points.- I knew it!

0:22:07 > 0:22:11DI Burnside, played by Christopher Ellison, first appeared on The Bill.

0:22:11 > 0:22:12Would have scored you 53 points.

0:22:12 > 0:22:16Jack Regan was John Thaw's character in The Sweeney.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Would have scored you 28.

0:22:18 > 0:22:22DCI David Bilborough was Christopher Eccleston's character in Cracker.

0:22:22 > 0:22:23Would have scored you one point,

0:22:23 > 0:22:26and DI Peter Carlisle is a pointless answer.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30He was played by David Tennant in the cop musical Blackpool.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33Very well done if you got that pointless answer.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37OK, we're halfway through the round, so let's take a look at the scores.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41Martin and Marco looking extremely strong there on 15,

0:22:41 > 0:22:45and then Anna and Tim and Alison and Min on 100.

0:22:45 > 0:22:49So, yes, it's going to be between you, Min and Tim,

0:22:49 > 0:22:52to tussle it out, see who'll be leaving at the end of this round.

0:22:52 > 0:22:56Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:22:58 > 0:23:02We're putting six more detectives on the board, and here they are.

0:23:02 > 0:23:03We have got...

0:23:25 > 0:23:29We are looking for the TV shows in which these detectives appear,

0:23:29 > 0:23:31and obviously you're trying to find the one that

0:23:31 > 0:23:33the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:23:33 > 0:23:40Now, Min, you're joint high scorers. Is this board going to help you?

0:23:40 > 0:23:42I think...I hope so.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45I think...

0:23:45 > 0:23:52DI Maggie Forbes...was...in...

0:23:52 > 0:23:54The Gentle Touch?

0:23:54 > 0:23:59DI Maggie Forbes, The Gentle Touch, says Min. How many people said The Gentle Touch?

0:24:03 > 0:24:06It's right, Min. That's a brilliant answer.

0:24:08 > 0:24:11Oh, very well done indeed! Look at that, 9.

0:24:14 > 0:24:179 for The Gentle Touch takes your total up to 109. Richard.

0:24:17 > 0:24:20Yeah, well played, Min, got yourself right back into the game.

0:24:20 > 0:24:25Played by Jill Gascoine, of course. Then went on to be in CATS Eyes, but Gentle Touch first.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28Now then, Marco, our high scorers on 109 are Min and Alison.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30You're on 15.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32If you can score 93 or less,

0:24:32 > 0:24:34you are straight through to the head-to-head.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36How simple could it be?

0:24:36 > 0:24:39- Indeed.- Don't recognise any of them definitely,

0:24:39 > 0:24:41so now I'm starting to really struggle,

0:24:41 > 0:24:45and it's...from the back of my mind somewhere, I'm going to go for

0:24:45 > 0:24:47Superintendent Stanley Mullett,

0:24:47 > 0:24:51and I'm going to go for Z Cars.

0:24:51 > 0:24:54Superintendent Stanley Mullett.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Z Cars.

0:24:56 > 0:25:01Marco, there's your lovely high red line, look at that.

0:25:01 > 0:25:04It's a walk in the park, just down from the pink line down to the red line.

0:25:04 > 0:25:08Do you think Stanley Mullett and Z Cars are going to get you there?

0:25:08 > 0:25:10Absolutely not.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13- What do you think, Martin?- No.

0:25:13 > 0:25:17- "Don't know" or "no"?- No.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19- I could be mistaken, however... - No.- No.

0:25:19 > 0:25:23Superintendent Stanley Mullett, is it right for Z Cars?

0:25:23 > 0:25:26Let's see if it is, and how many people said it.

0:25:28 > 0:25:31Noooo! Bad luck, Marco, I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,

0:25:31 > 0:25:34which takes your total up to 115.

0:25:34 > 0:25:38Ooh, it's all getting very close indeed as we come to the end of this second round.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40- Richard.- Yeah, sorry, Marco. Tough round.

0:25:40 > 0:25:44I won't give you the answer in case Tim wants to have a go.

0:25:45 > 0:25:50- Phew! So, then. Tim, it's all in your hands.- Right.

0:25:50 > 0:25:56The scores are ranged - 115, Marco and Martin, 109, Min and Alison, and you on 100.

0:25:56 > 0:26:00You have to score 14 or less to stay in the game.

0:26:00 > 0:26:04- How much do you know about TV cop shows?- Um...not a lot.

0:26:04 > 0:26:08- Less than Anna did.- Right.

0:26:08 > 0:26:12Luckily, however, there was one that I've got half of a brain cell

0:26:12 > 0:26:13in the back of the mind going,

0:26:13 > 0:26:16and luckily none of the other guys have had a go yet,

0:26:16 > 0:26:20so I'm going to say, DCI Jane Tennison,

0:26:20 > 0:26:23was she in Prime Suspect?

0:26:23 > 0:26:26- OK, you're saying Jane Tennison, Prime Suspect.- Yes.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29That has to score you 14 or less or we say goodbye to you.

0:26:29 > 0:26:30Very best of luck, Tim.

0:26:30 > 0:26:36Let's see if Prime Suspect, Jane Tennison, is right, and, if it is, how many people said it.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41It's going to be very, very close, I think.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44Ohhh!

0:26:44 > 0:26:48Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho! You needed to score 14. You scored 16.

0:26:48 > 0:26:51Oh, Tim, look at that!

0:26:51 > 0:26:53Oh, never mind.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56That's very exciting, but I'm afraid you are the high scorers.

0:26:56 > 0:26:59- Richard.- Tim, that's really, really unlucky.

0:26:59 > 0:27:02Great answer, just didn't quite score you few enough.

0:27:02 > 0:27:04Let's fill in the rest of the board.

0:27:04 > 0:27:08The first thing we can do is solve the mystery of Midsomer Murders,

0:27:08 > 0:27:10because the real original cop from that is up there,

0:27:10 > 0:27:13DCI Tom Barnaby, played by John Nettles.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16Would have scored you 49 points.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19Superintendent Stanley Mullett, not from Z Cars.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22He's actually Frost's boss in A Touch Of Frost.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25Would have scored you 12 points. Inspector James Japp.

0:27:25 > 0:27:29He was the perennially put-upon inspector in the Poirot stories.

0:27:29 > 0:27:33Would have scored you 17. And DC David Briggs is a pointless answer.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35That was from the spoof series Detectives.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39He was played by Robert Powell in that alongside Jasper Carrott.

0:27:39 > 0:27:44No points. Very well done if you said that. VERY well done if you got all 12. Very tough round.

0:27:44 > 0:27:45Very tough indeed.

0:27:45 > 0:27:49Well, thanks very much, Richard. So at the end of Round Two the losing pair,

0:27:49 > 0:27:52with the highest score, I'm afraid, Tim and Anna.

0:27:52 > 0:27:56Oh, what a shame. Well, you saved everyone in the first round, Tim.

0:27:56 > 0:27:57I did.

0:27:57 > 0:28:02But for your finch tip, I think we would have seen some very, very high scores in that first round,

0:28:02 > 0:28:06- so that was a very selfless act. - Thank you. It happens.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10Not entirely selfless, because you picked it yourself first, but a great first round.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13We will just have to look forward to seeing you again next time.

0:28:13 > 0:28:17Tim and Anna, great contestants, thanks so much for playing.

0:28:17 > 0:28:22For the remaining two pairs, things are about to get even more exciting now, as we enter the head-to-head.

0:28:29 > 0:28:33Very well done, Marco and Martin, Min and Alison, you've made it to the head-to-head.

0:28:33 > 0:28:37Obviously only one pair can reach the final and play for that jackpot,

0:28:37 > 0:28:41which currently stands at a massive £10,500.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43- AUDIENCE: Whooo!- Yeah!

0:28:45 > 0:28:50Now, for each question, each pair needs to give me just one answer. But you are now allowed to confer.

0:28:50 > 0:28:55All you have to do is come up with an answer that scores less than the other pair and you win the question.

0:28:55 > 0:28:59The first pair to win two questions will be playing for today's jackpot. Let's play Pointless.

0:29:05 > 0:29:07Here is your first question.

0:29:07 > 0:29:10We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:29:10 > 0:29:15to name as many Christina Aguilera UK top 40 singles

0:29:15 > 0:29:16as they could. Richard.

0:29:16 > 0:29:20Yeah, we're looking for any single released by Christina Aguilera

0:29:20 > 0:29:24or which has her as a named featured artist that has reached the UK top 40 prior to May 2011.

0:29:24 > 0:29:28Lot of answers on this list and a lot of big scores as well.

0:29:28 > 0:29:32- 14 top ten hits on this list.- Wow. OK. Well, thanks very much, Richard.

0:29:32 > 0:29:36Marco and Martin, you've played best throughout the show so far, so you go first.

0:29:36 > 0:29:38Christina Aguilera, top 40 singles.

0:29:38 > 0:29:41Dirrty was one of hers.

0:29:42 > 0:29:44Do you know any?

0:29:44 > 0:29:45Yeah? Yeah.

0:29:47 > 0:29:50OK, we're going to go for Lady Marmalade.

0:29:50 > 0:29:52Lady Marmalade.

0:29:52 > 0:29:56Very good, Lady Marmalade has gone. Min and Alison?

0:29:56 > 0:30:01- Well, we've got a total of... We're sorting through...- One between us?

0:30:01 > 0:30:03One between us.

0:30:03 > 0:30:07So we're going to say that one, and I hope it's the right one,

0:30:07 > 0:30:09and it's called Dirrty.

0:30:09 > 0:30:13Dirrty. OK, we have Lady Marmalade and we have Dirrty.

0:30:13 > 0:30:17Marco and Martin, Lady Marmalade, is it right, how many people said it?

0:30:19 > 0:30:21- It's right.- Is it top ten?

0:30:24 > 0:30:28Oh, it's a good score. Look at that, 11!

0:30:29 > 0:30:3211 for Lady Marmalade.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34Min and Alison, you've gone for Dirrty.

0:30:34 > 0:30:38Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said Dirrty.

0:30:42 > 0:30:43It's right.

0:30:47 > 0:30:5054.

0:30:50 > 0:30:54Well, that means, after one question, Marco and Martin are ahead one-nil. Richard.

0:30:54 > 0:30:59Two correct answers, but Marco and Martin, that's a good one. She had a number one hit with Lady Marmalade,

0:30:59 > 0:31:02alongside Mya and Lil' Kim and Pink as well.

0:31:02 > 0:31:06There's three pointless answers, all top ten hits but all collaborations.

0:31:06 > 0:31:10Tilt Ya Head Back, which she did with Nelly. Tell Me, with P Diddy.

0:31:10 > 0:31:12And Nobody Wants To Be Lonely with Ricky Martin.

0:31:12 > 0:31:15Keeps Gettin' Better would have scored you 1,

0:31:15 > 0:31:17Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You) would have scored 1,

0:31:17 > 0:31:20Not Myself Tonight, 3, Ain't No Other Man would have scored you 5,

0:31:20 > 0:31:23The Voice Within, 5, Hurt, 7,

0:31:23 > 0:31:25Car Wash, 7, Can't Hold Us Down, 8,

0:31:25 > 0:31:29What A Girl Wants, 10, I Turn To You, 11. And the big scorers here,

0:31:29 > 0:31:32there's Lady Marmalade, 11, Candyman, 14, Fighter on 20,

0:31:32 > 0:31:36Beautiful, 49, Genie In A Bottle, 52,

0:31:36 > 0:31:39and Dirrty, with Redman, on 54.

0:31:39 > 0:31:43Thank you very much, Richard. OK, here comes your second question.

0:31:43 > 0:31:47Now, Min and Alison, you have to win this one to stay in the game.

0:31:47 > 0:31:52We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many Ricky Gervais films as they could.

0:31:52 > 0:31:55Ricky Gervais films. Richard.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58We're looking for any feature film made for cinema release

0:31:58 > 0:32:02for which Ricky Gervais has received an acting credit prior to May 2011, please.

0:32:02 > 0:32:04No short films, TV films or documentaries,

0:32:04 > 0:32:07but voice performances do count.

0:32:07 > 0:32:12- OK, thank you very much. Now then, Min and Alison, you go first this time.- Any idea?

0:32:12 > 0:32:17- Any Ricky Gervais film? - No, all I know is The Office.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20Erm...we've really got no idea.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23Erm...I think he might have been in that Russell Brand film,

0:32:23 > 0:32:26but I'm not sure of the name of it.

0:32:26 > 0:32:29I think it's called something like...

0:32:29 > 0:32:31Show Me The Way To The Greek?

0:32:31 > 0:32:35Show Me The Way To The Greek. OK, I'll take that as your answer.

0:32:35 > 0:32:36Marco and Martin.

0:32:36 > 0:32:42Night At The Museum 1 and 2, The Invention Of Lying, but I think the one...

0:32:42 > 0:32:44- Stardust as well. - Stardust as well, yeah.

0:32:44 > 0:32:50But I think the one we're going to go for, when he played a dentist who could see the dead, er, Ghost Town.

0:32:50 > 0:32:52Ghost Town.

0:32:52 > 0:32:57So we have Show Me The Way To The Greek and we have Ghost Town.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00In the order they were given, Show Me The Way To The Greek,

0:33:00 > 0:33:03is it right, how many people said it?

0:33:04 > 0:33:06Bad luck, Min and Alison,

0:33:06 > 0:33:11which means, Marco and Martin, you merely have to be correct and you are through to the final.

0:33:11 > 0:33:13It's just him, I've not seen the film!

0:33:13 > 0:33:18- Do you think that's the right name? - I think so. I'm doubting myself a bit but I'm going to stick with it.

0:33:18 > 0:33:22OK, well, let's find out. Ghost Town. Is it right? That's all it needs to be.

0:33:25 > 0:33:27It is right.

0:33:27 > 0:33:28Very well done.

0:33:28 > 0:33:31Ooh, it's a great answer, look at that.

0:33:31 > 0:33:35Oh, 11! Very well done indeed, Marco and Martin.

0:33:35 > 0:33:38Very well done. That means, after only two questions,

0:33:38 > 0:33:41you are through to the final in straight sets, two-nil.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44- Richard.- Yeah, well played, Marco and Martin, good answer.

0:33:44 > 0:33:49It's Get Him To The Greek, the name of the Russell Brand film, and Ricky Gervais is not in it, I'm afraid.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52- Oh, well.- But do you know who is?

0:33:52 > 0:33:53Christina Aguilera.

0:33:53 > 0:33:56- Plays herself in that film. - My nemesis.- Er...

0:33:56 > 0:34:00- Yeah, your nemesis! You never knew Christina Aguilera was your nemesis, did you?- I didn't.

0:34:00 > 0:34:02Until now. Quite a good nemesis to have.

0:34:02 > 0:34:05Let's take a look at all the answers up here.

0:34:05 > 0:34:08For Your Consideration, a Christopher Guest film, he was in that.

0:34:08 > 0:34:11Dog Eat Dog, a very early thing, he played a bouncer in that in 2001.

0:34:11 > 0:34:14Valiant, he was the voice of Bugsy in that animation,

0:34:14 > 0:34:16would have scored you 3 points.

0:34:16 > 0:34:19Stardust, the fantasy adventure, would have scored you 5.

0:34:19 > 0:34:22He wrote with Stephen Merchant and starred in Cemetery Junction,

0:34:22 > 0:34:23would have scored you 6.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26Night At The Museum: Battle Of The Smithsonian, the sequel, 9.

0:34:26 > 0:34:29There's Ghost Town, 11. The Invention Of Lying on 14,

0:34:29 > 0:34:32alongside the original Night At The Museum.

0:34:32 > 0:34:34Very well done if you got either pointless answer.

0:34:34 > 0:34:36Thank you very much, Richard.

0:34:36 > 0:34:39So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, I'm afraid it's Min and Alison.

0:34:39 > 0:34:42That was a very tough, tough head-to-head for you, wasn't it?

0:34:42 > 0:34:47- It's just the way the subjects come up.- It is, exactly, yes. Unfortunate.

0:34:47 > 0:34:50- Did you know some of those films when they came up?- No.

0:34:50 > 0:34:53I knew Night At The Museum, but I didn't know he was in it,

0:34:53 > 0:34:54which sort of made it...

0:34:54 > 0:34:59It makes it somehow easier, doesn't it? Well, I'm afraid this is where we have to say goodbye.

0:34:59 > 0:35:03You've been fantastic contestants, you've played excellently so far.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06We will have to look forward to seeing you again next time.

0:35:06 > 0:35:10But, meanwhile, Min and Alison, thank you very much.

0:35:10 > 0:35:14But for Marco and Martin, it's now time for our Pointless final

0:35:14 > 0:35:17and a chance to win that jackpot of £10,500.

0:35:22 > 0:35:25Well, congratulations, Marco and Martin.

0:35:25 > 0:35:30You've fought off all the competition and won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:34 > 0:35:38You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot, and at the end of today's show,

0:35:38 > 0:35:43you may have noticed, the jackpot stands at £10,500.

0:35:43 > 0:35:46AUDIENCE: Whooo!

0:35:48 > 0:35:51To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer,

0:35:51 > 0:35:54an answer that none of our 100 people could think of.

0:35:54 > 0:35:59We've had one pointless answer on the show today. Find one more and you will leave here with that money.

0:35:59 > 0:36:02First, though, you've got to pick a category,

0:36:02 > 0:36:05and you can choose from these three options.

0:36:10 > 0:36:12Ooh, no.

0:36:15 > 0:36:18Right, soul divas I think we can safely say is out.

0:36:18 > 0:36:21Shall we stick to what we know? American actors.

0:36:21 > 0:36:24We'll stay with what's got us here. American actors.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26OK, let's find out what the question is.

0:36:26 > 0:36:29We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:36:29 > 0:36:32as many Ben Affleck films as they could.

0:36:32 > 0:36:35- Ben Affleck films. Richard.- Straight into another film question, guys.

0:36:35 > 0:36:39We're looking for any feature film made for cinema release

0:36:39 > 0:36:42for which Ben Affleck has received an acting credit prior to April 2011.

0:36:42 > 0:36:45No short films, TV films or documentaries,

0:36:45 > 0:36:48but voice performances do count. Very, very best of luck.

0:36:48 > 0:36:53OK, you can have up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56And all you need to win that £10,500 is for just one of those answers

0:36:56 > 0:36:58to be pointless.

0:36:58 > 0:37:03- Your 60 seconds start now.- OK, what have you got?- I've got Dogma.

0:37:03 > 0:37:06Dogma is in. Think of anything with Matt Damon in.

0:37:06 > 0:37:09That's what I'm trying to think. Daredevil, is that Ben Affleck?

0:37:09 > 0:37:11Daredevil was, but it's probably going to be well known.

0:37:11 > 0:37:16- Good Will Hunting was Matt Damon. Did Ben Affleck appear in that at all?- Don't know.- Um...what else?

0:37:16 > 0:37:19He was with J-Lo as well. What was that absolutely rubbish film?

0:37:19 > 0:37:22- Oh, yes, yes, yes.- Was it Maid In Manhattan? Not Maid In Manhattan.

0:37:22 > 0:37:26- Come on, what was it called? - I know what you're thinking.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29- Go on, you think on that one.- You come up with something else, then!

0:37:29 > 0:37:34- I'm trying to.- Anything with Ben Affleck.- Daredevil. Would he be credited for Team America?

0:37:34 > 0:37:37- He wouldn't be, cos he's a puppet, but...- But who did voice for it?

0:37:37 > 0:37:39Exactly. I don't think I know.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41It might be worth a shout if we can't think of anything else.

0:37:41 > 0:37:44Like I say, Daredevil won't be worth it. So, Dogma...

0:37:44 > 0:37:45- Shall we go for Team America?- Yeah.

0:37:45 > 0:37:48And then...well, I've got Good Will Hunting.

0:37:48 > 0:37:52- Unless you've got something else. - Five seconds left.

0:37:52 > 0:37:55That other one wasn't Gigli, was it?

0:37:55 > 0:37:58- It's worth a shout.- OK. There is your minute up.

0:37:58 > 0:38:00We were looking for Ben Affleck films.

0:38:00 > 0:38:04- I now need three answers from you. - OK, we're going to go for...

0:38:04 > 0:38:08- Dogma, yeah?- Yeah.- Dogma.- Dogma. - Team America?- Yeah.

0:38:08 > 0:38:11- Team America: World Police. - Team America.

0:38:11 > 0:38:14And Gigli, which you've just plucked out, which is as good as anything.

0:38:14 > 0:38:16- Yeah.- Gigli.- Gigli.

0:38:16 > 0:38:20Which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:20 > 0:38:24- Dogma, because... - We're sure he's in it!- BOTH: Dogma.

0:38:24 > 0:38:28We'll put Dogma last. What is your least likely pointless answer?

0:38:28 > 0:38:32- Gigli, because I may have made it up. - ALEXANDER LAUGHS

0:38:32 > 0:38:34Gigli, cos you may have made it up.

0:38:34 > 0:38:37Let's put them up on the board in that order. Here they are.

0:38:42 > 0:38:45Three good answers. We were looking for Ben Affleck films.

0:38:45 > 0:38:51You said this was your least confident shot at that pointless answer. Gigli.

0:38:51 > 0:38:57Now, remember, you only have to find one pointless answer and you will win that £10,500 jackpot.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01To get the ball rolling, let's see if Gigli is right

0:39:01 > 0:39:05and, if it is, let's see how many people said Gigli.

0:39:05 > 0:39:08This for £10,500.

0:39:10 > 0:39:14It's right. It's right. You weren't sure if you'd make it up.

0:39:14 > 0:39:17Turns out you didn't. It exists. Ben Affleck's in it.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20Now, it's right, the next thing it has to be is pointless.

0:39:20 > 0:39:22It goes down into single figures!

0:39:22 > 0:39:24Oh, 4.

0:39:24 > 0:39:28- 4. OK.- Well done, mate. Good answer.

0:39:28 > 0:39:32Well, unfortunately not a pointless answer, but, oh, it's a good score!

0:39:32 > 0:39:36OK, you only have two more chances to win today's jackpot, £10,500.

0:39:36 > 0:39:39- What would you do with £10,500? - Go on holiday, I think.

0:39:39 > 0:39:41Yeah, we talked about it. If we won the money together,

0:39:41 > 0:39:44then we'd take our families together on a group holiday.

0:39:44 > 0:39:46Fantastic.

0:39:46 > 0:39:51Well, let's hope that one of these two remaining answers will get you on that holiday.

0:39:51 > 0:39:53OK, your next answer is Team America.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56This has to be right and it has to be pointless.

0:39:56 > 0:40:00- You're not sure if it isn't somebody impersonating him?- Yes. - Yes, exactly.- OK, let's see.

0:40:00 > 0:40:04This has to be right and, if it is, it has to be pointless.

0:40:04 > 0:40:06And if it's both of those things you will win £10,500.

0:40:06 > 0:40:09Let's see, Team America, is Ben Affleck in it?

0:40:09 > 0:40:12And how many people said it? Team America. Very best of luck, guys.

0:40:17 > 0:40:20OK, OK. Fine. We weren't sure about that one anyway.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23That was just...holding the place.

0:40:23 > 0:40:26You only have one more chance to win today's jackpot,

0:40:26 > 0:40:31but luckily it's on Dogma, which you had no hesitation in putting forward

0:40:31 > 0:40:34as your most confident shot at the pointless answer. OK.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37Dogma has to be right and it has to be pointless.

0:40:37 > 0:40:44If it's both of those things, you walk away here right now with £10,500 in your back pocket.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47OK. Dogma. Is it right, how many people said it?

0:40:47 > 0:40:49Very best of luck, guys. Dogma.

0:40:56 > 0:40:59It's right. It's right.

0:40:59 > 0:41:04Now, if this goes all the way down to zero, you leave here with £10,500.

0:41:04 > 0:41:07Down into the teens. Single figures. Will this go down to zero?

0:41:07 > 0:41:09Oh, no!

0:41:17 > 0:41:18Wow.

0:41:18 > 0:41:22Only three people had Dogma, but that's three too many, I'm afraid.

0:41:22 > 0:41:26Unfortunately you didn't manage to find that vital pointless answer,

0:41:26 > 0:41:29so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £10,500.

0:41:29 > 0:41:32But you have been fantastic contestants, and you do of course

0:41:32 > 0:41:35- get to take home our Pointless trophy, so there's that.- Exactly.

0:41:39 > 0:41:44Unlucky, guys. Three good answers. Yeah, Team America: World Police, it's an impersonation of him.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47There's actually a love song in Team America with the lyrics -

0:41:47 > 0:41:51"I need you like Ben Affleck needs acting school".

0:41:51 > 0:41:54Although he's actually rather good in some of these pointless answers.

0:41:54 > 0:41:56I suspect you'll recognise a few.

0:41:56 > 0:42:00The Town he directed and starred in recently, he's very good in that.

0:42:00 > 0:42:04- Chasing Amy, a Kevin Smith film, was pointless.- I'd never have got that.

0:42:04 > 0:42:06Kevin Smith who obviously directed Dogma as well.

0:42:06 > 0:42:10Forces Of Nature with Sandra Bullock, that was a pointless answer.

0:42:10 > 0:42:12Changing Lanes with Samuel L Jackson, that was pointless.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15Mallrats, another Kevin Smith film, pointless answer.

0:42:15 > 0:42:19Hollywoodland, he won a Best Actor at the Venice Film Festival for that.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21But one more board, Smokin' Aces,

0:42:21 > 0:42:24State Of Play, the remake of the British TV series,

0:42:24 > 0:42:27and Clerks II, yet another Kevin Smith film.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30Three very good answers and you've played so well on both shows.

0:42:30 > 0:42:33Well, unfortunately we do have to say goodbye to you,

0:42:33 > 0:42:37Marco and Martin, but it's been just brilliant having you on the show.

0:42:37 > 0:42:40- Thank you both so much for playing. Brilliant.- Thanks very much.

0:42:42 > 0:42:46- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
