0:00:20 > 0:00:23APPLAUSE
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Thank you. I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:27 > 0:00:32the quiz show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35APPLAUSE
0:00:37 > 0:00:42Welcome, Tom and Jock. You are our first players on the show today.
0:00:42 > 0:00:47- How do you know each other?- We're brothers.- Where are you from, Jock?
0:00:47 > 0:00:52- South west Scotland, a place called Kirkcudbright.- What do you do?
0:00:52 > 0:00:55- I'm studying as an accountant. - Whereabouts are you doing that?
0:00:55 > 0:00:59- In London. I moved down in September.- Newly in London.
0:00:59 > 0:01:04- Jock, how about you? - I just graduated in the summer
0:01:04 > 0:01:09- and I'm now working as a busker. - Working as a busker. Where are you doing that?
0:01:09 > 0:01:14- In Glasgow with my bagpipes. - With your bagpipes! Wow!
0:01:14 > 0:01:18How popular are you when you set up your pitch?
0:01:18 > 0:01:22- I think the Glaswegians are used to it now.- They should be.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26Tom, what are you hoping will come up this afternoon?
0:01:26 > 0:01:30Maybe a bit of science. Some obscure history.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34Any particular niches in history that you specialise in?
0:01:34 > 0:01:39- I used to be keen on the Egyptians when I was small. Some of that has perhaps stayed with me.- OK.
0:01:39 > 0:01:45- How about you, Jock?- Um... I don't know. Some easy questions, maybe?
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Easy... Good! That's a very honest answer.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52The sort of subjects you're looking forward to are the easy ones.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55- Yeah.- Anything you'd hate to see come up?- Um...
0:01:55 > 0:01:59- I wouldn't do great on pop music, I don't think.- OK.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03- Scottish bagpipe music, obviously. - That would be perfect.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Have you tried playing any other pipes? There are some nice Northumbrian pipes.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11- I've never given it a go. - You should. Much quieter.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15Lovely to have you here, Tom and Jock. A warm welcome to Pointless.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Next, we welcome back Cathy and Dermot.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22You were on the show last time. Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25This is your second chance. Remind us what happened.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27We got to the head-to-head
0:02:27 > 0:02:31and we were let down by women tennis players.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34And South Africa as well.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38So long as there's not a question about South African tennis players, we might...
0:02:38 > 0:02:41You should be fine. You did very well.
0:02:41 > 0:02:45You were the lowest scorers throughout the show yesterday.
0:02:45 > 0:02:52Dermot, last time, I asked what your interests were and you said you'd taken up drawing cartoons.
0:02:52 > 0:02:57- I did. - And you were going to draw one of Richard and me.- He has done.- Has he?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00- Would you like to see them?- Kind of.
0:03:00 > 0:03:04- Yeah.- Shall I do mine first? That will ease you in.- OK.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- Then we can see yours.- OK.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11If you can see... Can you see that?
0:03:11 > 0:03:16- That's me. It's recognisable. It's got glasses.- Yes!
0:03:16 > 0:03:21If I'd committed a crime and that was on Crimewatch, they'd go, "I know that guy."
0:03:21 > 0:03:26Talking of committing serious crimes and going on Crimewatch, here's yours.
0:03:26 > 0:03:31LAUGHTER I think that's captured you.
0:03:31 > 0:03:36He doesn't wear glasses, so it is definitely... That's me.
0:03:36 > 0:03:41- It captures your wry take on the world.- Lovely to have you back on the show, Dermot and Cathy.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Let's hope we see you go through to the final this time.
0:03:45 > 0:03:50Next, we have Heather and Sian. You were also on last time. Remind us how you know each other.
0:03:50 > 0:03:55We're flatmates from Leeds. We're both at university at Leeds.
0:03:55 > 0:04:00- And what happened last time?- We got through to the second round and we were thought we were quite good
0:04:00 > 0:04:04at entertainment and it turns out we weren't that good.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07What's going to be better today, Heather?
0:04:07 > 0:04:11I think geography will be quite good.
0:04:11 > 0:04:15- Do you mean cities and towns and capitals?- Countries.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18- World geography.- Sian, what would you like to see come up?
0:04:18 > 0:04:24- Popular music.- Who's your favourite band at the moment?- Band(!) Beyonce's my favourite artist.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27I should stop saying "band". I might as well say combo!
0:04:27 > 0:04:31Artist is all right cos artist covers both.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35- Ahem... Who's your favourite artist? - Beyonce.
0:04:35 > 0:04:40- Cos we like the Wanted and... - One Direction.- One Direction.
0:04:40 > 0:04:45- Yeah, they're our favourites. - Those kids are just unstoppable!
0:04:45 > 0:04:51- Who do you think's the best in the Wanted, Sian?- Erm... Max?- Yes!
0:04:51 > 0:04:53It's the right answer!
0:04:53 > 0:04:56- It's the right answer! - And in One Direction?
0:04:56 > 0:05:02- Erm...- Like us, do you think it's Zayn?- Yes!- Yes.- There we are.
0:05:02 > 0:05:08Spot on. It's lovely to have you back on the show. Let's hope we see a lot more of you today.
0:05:08 > 0:05:12And finally, we've got Bill and Bryan. How do you know each other?
0:05:12 > 0:05:17- Father and son. - We've had a lot of fine father and son combos on Pointless.
0:05:17 > 0:05:22- I have high hopes for you as a team. Have you quizzed together before? - No.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25- Really? Whose idea was it to come on Pointless?- Mine.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29- Did Bill take a lot of persuading or was he keen to come down?- No.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33- I little bit of coercion. - Now, Bill, what do you do?
0:05:33 > 0:05:37- I'm in the very happy state of being retired.- What do you like doing?
0:05:37 > 0:05:42Now you're retired, you've got a lot of time, a lot of hobbies?
0:05:42 > 0:05:47- Gardening, fly fishing... That's my passion.- Very good. Bryan?
0:05:47 > 0:05:51I do a bit of fishing. I do a lot on cars. I buy and sell cars.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- Fix them up.- What's the best car you've had through your hands?
0:05:54 > 0:06:00The one I regret - I had a special edition Ford Capri. There was only six made for a Belgian racing team.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04I had number three. Didn't know how valuable it was. Sold on for next to nothing.
0:06:04 > 0:06:08Years later, it appeared in a magazine, they couldn't value it.
0:06:08 > 0:06:13- Do you know who you sold it to?- It went down to Evesham or somewhere.
0:06:13 > 0:06:17- Oh, Bryan!- I have to say, I'm looking after it. I promise you.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22- It was a nice one.- I'm looking after the money I got for it!
0:06:22 > 0:06:27Oh. Dear, oh, dear! Bill and Bryan, welcome to Pointless.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31We'll be finding out more about all of you throughout the show.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33There's one person to introduce.
0:06:33 > 0:06:39- On board the obscurity bus, we're going to need a driver. He's my Pointless friend. Richard.- Hiya.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43APPLAUSE
0:06:45 > 0:06:50- Afternoon.- Good afternoon to you. - How are you today?- I'm very well.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53We have two returning pairs today.
0:06:53 > 0:06:58I noticed on the last show, Cathy sort of pretends to be very quiet
0:06:58 > 0:07:04and every time you ask a question, she goes, "I don't really know about this."
0:07:04 > 0:07:08And then comes up with an awesome answer. She did it the whole show.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11- Dermot, is that about right? - I think so.
0:07:11 > 0:07:18I think Heather, the good news for you in Round Two, we're doing something on cities.
0:07:18 > 0:07:24All our questions have been put to 100 people. We're looking for the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:07:24 > 0:07:30To stay in the game, all our players need to do is score as few points as they possibly can.
0:07:30 > 0:07:36Everyone's looking to find a pointless answer, an answer none of our 100 people gave.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43Nobody won last time, so we add another £1,000.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Today's jackpot starts off at £2,000. There we are.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49APPLAUSE
0:07:49 > 0:07:52OK, let's play Pointless.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56APPLAUSE
0:07:56 > 0:08:02In this first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:08:02 > 0:08:07Whichever pair has the highest score will be eliminated.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11If anyone gives me an incorrect answer, they will the score the maximum of 100 points.
0:08:11 > 0:08:17OK, our category for the first round this afternoon is sport.
0:08:17 > 0:08:21Can you decide who's going to go firs, who's going to go second?
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Whoever's going first, step up to the podium.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Sports of the 2012 Paralympic Games. Richard.
0:08:36 > 0:08:41We're looking for any of the sports that will feature in the London 2012 Paralympic Games.
0:08:41 > 0:08:47So not the individual events, just the catch-all sports that will be competed for in the 2012 Games.
0:08:47 > 0:08:53And we're looking for them as they are listed on the London 2012 Paralympic website. Best of luck.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Thanks, Richard.
0:08:56 > 0:09:01Tom and Jock, you drew lots before the show and this afternoon, you go first.
0:09:01 > 0:09:06Sports in the 2012 Paralympic Games. Tom.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Not an ideal subject.
0:09:09 > 0:09:14I'm going with one I think is fairly safe, wheelchair basketball.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Wheelchair basketball, says Tom. Let's see if that's correct
0:09:17 > 0:09:22and if it is, let's see how many people said wheelchair basketball.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24It's right.
0:09:24 > 0:09:2761.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29APPLAUSE
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Safe but high. Richard?
0:09:31 > 0:09:34It's been competed for since 1960, the 1960 Games.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Wheelchair basketball, or just basketball.
0:09:37 > 0:09:44Now then, Dermot. We're looking for Paralympic Sports For 2012.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- Is this a good category for you? - No. Definitely not.
0:09:48 > 0:09:52I've not got a clue. I will just say wheelchair marathon.
0:09:52 > 0:09:57Let's see if it's correct and if it is, let's see how many people said wheelchair marathon.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Bad luck, Dermot.
0:10:03 > 0:10:08I'm afraid that scores you the maximum of 100 points. Richard.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10The marathon is an individual event.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14We're looking for the catch-all sports that are competed for.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Now then, Sian.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19So we are looking for sports in the 2012 Paralympics.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21I'm good at sport but...
0:10:21 > 0:10:26I'm going to go with football, I think I'm going to go with.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29Football says Sian. Let's see if that's right
0:10:29 > 0:10:32and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said football.
0:10:34 > 0:10:35It's right.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42Very well done, Sian. 22.
0:10:42 > 0:10:43Great answer.
0:10:46 > 0:10:52There's the five-a-side version, which is played by visually-impaired players
0:10:52 > 0:10:56and also a seven-a-side version, played by players with cerebral palsy.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Both of those will be at the Olympics.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Bill. So we are looking for sports in the 2012 Paralympics.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Shot-put.
0:11:03 > 0:11:04Shot-put.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Yes.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08OK, let's see if that is a correct answer.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11If it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it. Shot-put.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Bad luck, Bill.
0:11:16 > 0:11:22Unfortunately that's incorrect, which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25And again, that's an individual event. It's not a sport,
0:11:25 > 0:11:28as in the catch-all sports that we're looking for.
0:11:28 > 0:11:33Thanks. We're halfway through the round so let's take a look at those scores.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Sian and Heather looking very strong there on 22. Lovely low score.
0:11:36 > 0:11:4161, Tom and Jock. As it turns out, rather a good score
0:11:41 > 0:11:47in the context of Dermot and Cathy and Bill and Bryan's scores of 100.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50I think it will be a tussle between Cathy and Bryan.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53So best of luck to both of you.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55We'll see who remains at the end of the round.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58Can the second players please take their places at the podium.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06Remember are we are looking for sports of the 2012 Paralympic Games.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10Bryan, you are the joint highest scorers with Dermot and Cathy
0:12:10 > 0:12:11on 100 points.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14You have to score as few as you possibly can.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15What are you thinking?
0:12:15 > 0:12:20I honestly have no idea. I'm just going to go, swimming.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Swimming. OK.
0:12:22 > 0:12:23Bryan says swimming.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27There's no red line for you because you're the high scorers.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31Let's see if swimming is right and how many of our 100 people said swimming.
0:12:34 > 0:12:35It's right!
0:12:39 > 0:12:4438. 38 for swimming takes your total up to 138. Richard.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48Sport Team GB does very well usually in the Paralympics.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51All sorts of different classes and disciplines and distances.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54Should be one of the real spectacles of the 2012 Paralympics.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58Thanks, Richard. Heather. The highest scorers are Bryan and Bill on 138.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02You're on 22. Whatever you score, you are through to the next round.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03That's quite nice to know.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07That's quite lucky because I'm terrible on sport.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09So I'm going to guess volleyball.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11Volleyball says Heather.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15Let's see if that's right. We are looking for 2012 Paralympic sports.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18No red line for you because you're through.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21Is that right and if it is, how many people said volleyball?
0:13:23 > 0:13:25It's right, very well done.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Great score, Heather.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34That's wonderful. 10 for you, takes your total up to 32.
0:13:34 > 0:13:35Richard.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39Safely through, Heather, very well played.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42There's a sit-in volleyball at the Paralympics.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45They teamed up a German sport called Sitzball with volleyball.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47That's Paralympic volleyball.
0:13:47 > 0:13:48OK, now then, Cathy.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52Remember we are looking for Paralympic sports for 2012.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55The high scorers on 138 are Bryan and Bill.
0:13:55 > 0:14:00You have to score 37 or less if you want to be through safely to the next round.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03I really, really have no idea!
0:14:03 > 0:14:06So I'll take a chance on fencing.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10Fencing. Says Cathy. There's your red line.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12If you can get below that red line with fencing,
0:14:12 > 0:14:14you are through to the next round.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Let's see if it is right.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Fencing. How many people said it?
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Cathy, you've done it again!
0:14:25 > 0:14:27And you are through to the next round!
0:14:29 > 0:14:33And it scores only two! Takes your total up to 102.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40And she prefaced her answer with, "I really have no idea".
0:14:40 > 0:14:46You see what I mean. "I really have no idea" - best answer all round.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49The best score of the entire round. There we go, Cathy.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52Jock, we come to you. You're on 61.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54The high scorers are still Bryan and Bill on 138.
0:14:54 > 0:14:59That means a score of 76 or less will see you to the next round.
0:14:59 > 0:15:00Right.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04You're the last to play. You can do all of your thinking out loud.
0:15:04 > 0:15:09The one I've been thinking of since the beginning was rugby,
0:15:09 > 0:15:13and I think I'm going to stay with that because I think it's right.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16I'm not 100%, but hopefully that will be obscure enough.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20Rugby says Jock. Here is your red line.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24Quite nice and high. If you get below that with rugby,
0:15:24 > 0:15:25you are through to the next round.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28Is it right? How many people said rugby?
0:15:30 > 0:15:31It's right!
0:15:31 > 0:15:33You're through.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38And down it goes, look at that.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Very well done indeed, Jock. Five.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Takes your total up to 66.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48Well played, Jock. Wheelchair rugby, invented in Canada in the '70s.
0:15:48 > 0:15:53The USA won the first ever gold medal at Sydney in 2000.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Only one pointless answer, boccia, which is a form of bowls.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Judo would've scored you one.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Powerlifting also would've scored you one.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03Let's take a look at the top scores, the top answers.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07Archery would've scored you 30 points.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Swimming, 38.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12And basketball, 61.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Marathon, shot-put, that would obviously come under "athletics",
0:16:15 > 0:16:18which would've scored you 24 points.
0:16:18 > 0:16:19Thank you very much, Richard.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23At the end of round one, the losing pair with the highest score,
0:16:23 > 0:16:26I'm sorry, it's Bill and Bryan.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Any tips you'll take away from your time on Pointless,
0:16:29 > 0:16:33so when you come back we'll see you go a lot further?
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Read up on the Paralympics!
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Don't do that cos we've just done that one.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Listen, I'm sorry we have to say goodbye to you so soon.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43We look forward to seeing you next time.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46Bryan and Bill. Thanks very much.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48APPLAUSE
0:16:48 > 0:16:53But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59There's only going to be room for two pairs in the head-to-head
0:16:59 > 0:17:03so one of the teams in front of me will be leaving at the end of this round.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Our category for round two is...
0:17:06 > 0:17:07cities.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11Can you decide who'll go first and who'll go second?
0:17:11 > 0:17:14Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20OK, our round two question concerns...
0:17:20 > 0:17:23largest cities which are not capitals.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Richard.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Yes, we'll show you the names of six cities.
0:17:29 > 0:17:33They are all the largest cities in their country, although not the capital.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36All you have to do is tell us the country.
0:17:36 > 0:17:40An obscure one will score fewer points. An incorrect answer will score 100 points.
0:17:40 > 0:17:4412 cities in all, 12 countries to guess. Best of luck.
0:17:44 > 0:17:50So we are looking at the countries of which these cities are the largest.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51And here we have -
0:18:00 > 0:18:02I'll read them one more time.
0:18:02 > 0:18:07Auckland, Almaty, Lagos, Shanghai, Sao Paulo, Ho Chi Minh City.
0:18:07 > 0:18:13There are the largest cities in their countries that are not capital cities.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17You have to supply the name of the country of the most obscure one you know.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Jock.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Right. Erm...
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Is this a good one for you?
0:18:25 > 0:18:29Erm, it's not dreadful in theory.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Not too keen on what's come up,
0:18:31 > 0:18:35but I'm going to play relatively safe and go...
0:18:35 > 0:18:39Auckland, New Zealand.
0:18:39 > 0:18:44Relatively safe. I'm just seeing what the relative safety of that was.
0:18:44 > 0:18:49Let's see if it's right and if so, how many people knew that answer. Auckland, New Zealand.
0:18:51 > 0:18:52Yep.
0:18:52 > 0:18:53Ho, ho!
0:18:53 > 0:18:5581.
0:18:55 > 0:18:56APPLAUSE
0:18:58 > 0:19:02That's a punishingly high score.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04That is relatively safe, isn't it.
0:19:04 > 0:19:05LAUGHTER
0:19:05 > 0:19:10Auckland's three times the size of the capital of New Zealand, which is Wellington.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13Now then, Cathy, we're looking for the countries in which these
0:19:13 > 0:19:16are the largest cities, and are not capitals.
0:19:16 > 0:19:21Is this terrible for you, Cathy? Oh, I really don't know!
0:19:21 > 0:19:22It's going to be a terrible guess.
0:19:22 > 0:19:26I'm going to go for Lagos and I think it's Nigeria.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28Lagos, Nigeria says Cathy. Is it right?
0:19:28 > 0:19:31How many people knew that answer?
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Cathy's done it again.
0:19:40 > 0:19:41Very well done!
0:19:41 > 0:19:42APPLAUSE
0:19:42 > 0:19:46Very well done, Cathy. 15 for Lagos, Nigeria.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47Well done, Cathy.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Ten million people in Lagos, second biggest city of Africa,
0:19:50 > 0:19:54but not the capital of Nigeria because that is...?
0:19:54 > 0:19:55- Nairobi?- No.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Abuja?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00Abuja. Abuja, exactly.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03They moved the capital because Lagos was so congested.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06It wasn't an appropriate place to have a capital.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08- No-one could get around.- Exactly.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10So look out Swindon!
0:20:10 > 0:20:12LAUGHTER
0:20:12 > 0:20:13Thank you.
0:20:13 > 0:20:18Now, Heather and Sian, you were our lowest scorers in the first round.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20- Can you keep this up, Heather? - I don't think so.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24You're the last person to have this board.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27I'll have to play it relatively safe and say Shanghai, China.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31You are also saying relatively safe.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35Let's see how relatively safe that is. Shanghai, you say, China.
0:20:35 > 0:20:39Let's see how many of our 100 people knew that answer.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43It's right.
0:20:45 > 0:20:4763.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Not a bad score at all. Richard.
0:20:51 > 0:20:5616.5 million people live in Shanghai and Beijing, the capital, has 12.5.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59Let's fill in the rest of the board. See how you did at home.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03Sao Paulo is in Brazil. Would've scored you 49 points.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Not the capital of Brazil. That's Brasilia.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09Ho Chi Minh City. Alexander, do you know that?
0:21:09 > 0:21:10Vietnam.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12Absolutely right. Would've scored 31.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15Do you know the capital of Vietnam?
0:21:15 > 0:21:16Hanoi. Almaty.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20The capital of this country is Astana.
0:21:20 > 0:21:21- It's Kazakhstan.- Kazakhstan!
0:21:21 > 0:21:25Two points. Very well done if you got all of those at home.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28- They are fools for Pointless in Kazakhstan.- They love it.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30They love it.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Everything stops in Kazakhstan.
0:21:33 > 0:21:355:15pm in Almaty!
0:21:35 > 0:21:377:15pm actually, cos of the time difference.
0:21:37 > 0:21:417:15, tractor production stops, if that's what they make there!
0:21:41 > 0:21:46Thank you, Richard. We're halfway through the round. Let's look at those scores.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49Cathy and Dermot looking just wonderful there on only 15.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53Then we go up substantially to 63, where we find Heather and Sian,
0:21:53 > 0:21:56and then up a little bit more to 81, where we find Jock and Tom.
0:21:56 > 0:22:02So Sian and Tom have the tussle on their hands in this next half of the round.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:22:08 > 0:22:12OK, we are going to put six more cities on the board.
0:22:12 > 0:22:17And here they come. We have got: Dar es Salaam, Zurich, Birkirkara,
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Istanbul, Karachi, Toronto.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25I'll read those again: Dar es Salaam, Zurich, Birkirkara,
0:22:25 > 0:22:29Istanbul, Karachi, and Toronto.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32Now, remember, we're looking for the countries in which
0:22:32 > 0:22:35these are the largest cities, without being capital cities.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39You're trying to find the one that the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42Sian, your on 63, the high scorers on 81 are Tom and Jock, which means
0:22:42 > 0:22:47a score of 17 or less would see you comfortably into the next round.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49I don't think I'm going to get that.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53I don't know, I think I'm going to play it safe,
0:22:53 > 0:22:56I think Toronto is Canada, I don't know.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00Toronto, Canada. OK, here comes your Red Line, Sian.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04If you get below that you are definitely in the head-to-head.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08Let's see if Toronto, Canada gets you down that far. Toronto, Canada.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12It's right. Ooh!
0:23:12 > 0:23:15Yeah, that's a very high score.
0:23:15 > 0:23:1889 takes your total up to 152.
0:23:20 > 0:23:21Yeah, that could be trouble.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25Toronto, the largest city in Canada. Ottawa is the capital.
0:23:25 > 0:23:26Good, thank you.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28150 to your total now, Sian.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31Dermot, you are through to the next round, whatever happens,
0:23:31 > 0:23:33even if you score 100 points,
0:23:33 > 0:23:36you won't overtake the high score of Sian and Heather.
0:23:36 > 0:23:40Bearing which in mind, why not have a bit of a punt on this board?
0:23:40 > 0:23:42I don't know too many of them,
0:23:42 > 0:23:46I'll go for one, obviously, I think I do know Zurich, Switzerland.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49Zurich, Switzerland, says Dermot. Let's see if Zurich is right,
0:23:49 > 0:23:52and how many people said Zurich, Switzerland.
0:23:54 > 0:23:55It's right.
0:23:56 > 0:23:5859.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02The 59 takes your total up to 74. Richard.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Safely through Dermot, back in the head-to-head.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09- Bern being the capital of Switzerland.- Tom.- Yep.
0:24:09 > 0:24:14You are on 81, the high scorers are Sian and Heather on 152.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17A score of 70 or less sees you into the head-to-head.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21Well, I'm sure I've heard of Dar es Salaam,
0:24:21 > 0:24:24but I can't for the life of me remember where it is.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27Birkirkara? Never heard of before.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30Istanbul is Turkey, definitely, hopefully correct
0:24:30 > 0:24:31is Karachi in Pakistan?
0:24:31 > 0:24:35- I think I'm going to go for that. - Karachi, Pakistan, says Tom.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Here's your Red Line.
0:24:37 > 0:24:38It's quite nice and high,
0:24:38 > 0:24:42if you get below it you are in the head-to-head.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Let's see if Karachi in Pakistan gets you there.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47Is it right, and how many people said it?
0:24:48 > 0:24:50It's right. And you are through.
0:24:52 > 0:24:5531.
0:24:55 > 0:24:5931 takes your total up to 112.
0:25:00 > 0:25:04- Richard.- Great tactics, Tom. Pakistan, absolutely right.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07The capital of Pakistani, of course, Islamabad.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Let's fill in the rest of the board.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12If you had gone for Istanbul, you're quite right it's Turkey,
0:25:12 > 0:25:14which the capital is Ankara.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16You would have scored 81 points, you'd been out.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19You would have got exactly the same score as Jock.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Dar es Salaam is the largest city in Tanzania,
0:25:21 > 0:25:24it used to be the capital of Tanzania.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27The capital of Tanzania is now Dodoma.
0:25:27 > 0:25:32Birkirkara is the largest city in Malta.
0:25:32 > 0:25:37It's got 22,000 people live there. Would have scored you three points.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Valetta, the capital, has got 6,000 inhabitants.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42Three points for Malta, so very well done if you got that.
0:25:42 > 0:25:47- Very Well done if you went all the way through both boards. - Thank you very much, Richard.
0:25:47 > 0:25:52So, at the end of round two the losing pair, with the highest score, it's Heather and Sian.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54AUDIENCE SYMPATHISES
0:25:54 > 0:25:57Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. I'm sorry.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00It was round two last time, and it's round two again this time.
0:26:00 > 0:26:05You've yet to make it through to the dizzy heights of the head-to-head.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09- Did you know any of those more obscure ones?- No.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11I mean, that's honest of you to say.
0:26:11 > 0:26:15- I knew the other board, again, just not my board.- Dear, oh dear.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18I'm sorry we have to say goodbye to you so soon, Sian and Heather,
0:26:18 > 0:26:20but it's been lovely having you on the show.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23- Thank you so much for playing, great contestants.- Thank you.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26For the remaining two pairs, things are about to get
0:26:26 > 0:26:29even more exciting now as we enter the head to head.
0:26:32 > 0:26:37Well, congratulations. Cathy and Dermot, Tom and Jock,
0:26:37 > 0:26:39you are now only one round away from the final,
0:26:39 > 0:26:42and a chance to play for the jackpot,
0:26:42 > 0:26:44which currently stands at £2,000.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47AUDIENCE: Woo!
0:26:47 > 0:26:51Now, clearly only one pair can play for that money,
0:26:51 > 0:26:55and to decide which pair it's going to be you are now going to go head-to-head.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58For each question you'll be given five options on the board.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Each pair only needs to give just one answer,
0:27:00 > 0:27:02but you are now allowed to confer.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06All you need to do is score less than the other pair and you will win that question.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10The first pair to win two questions will be playing the jackpot. Let's play head-to-head.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19And here is your first and here is your first question.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22It concerns famous communists.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24Famous communists, Richard.
0:27:24 > 0:27:29On what other teatime show are you getting a round about famous communists?
0:27:29 > 0:27:33We're about to show you five pictures of people who had roles in communist history.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36You have to identify the most obscure among them.
0:27:36 > 0:27:37OK. Thanks Richard.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41Let's reveal our five famous communists, and here they come.
0:27:41 > 0:27:42We've got:
0:27:42 > 0:27:43A,
0:27:44 > 0:27:45B,
0:27:47 > 0:27:48C,
0:27:49 > 0:27:52D, and E.
0:27:53 > 0:27:57There they are, five famous communists.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59Now then, Cathy and Dermot,
0:27:59 > 0:28:03you've played best throughout the show so far, so you get to go first.
0:28:03 > 0:28:09THEY MUTTER TO EACH OTHER
0:28:09 > 0:28:13Shall we go for C? Mussolini.
0:28:13 > 0:28:18- We'll go for C, Mussolini. - C, Mussolini, say Cathy and Dermot.
0:28:18 > 0:28:22Tom and Jock, do you want to talk us through our gallery of Communists there?
0:28:23 > 0:28:27Well, my brother is looking at me, I only know two.
0:28:27 > 0:28:32I think A is Mao, Chairman Mao, and I think D is Fidel Castro.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34And presumably E is Che Guevara?
0:28:34 > 0:28:37I think we'll go with E, Che Guevara.
0:28:37 > 0:28:38Che Guevara, E.
0:28:38 > 0:28:44So, we have Mussolini as C, and Che Guevara as E.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49Cathy and Dermot, C, Mussolini, is that right,
0:28:49 > 0:28:51and if it is, how many people said it?
0:28:51 > 0:28:54C, Mussolini. Famous communist.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02Bad luck Cathy and Dermot. That's an incorrect answer.
0:29:02 > 0:29:07So, Tom and Jock, that means E, Che Guevara, which is what you are saying, only has to be right.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10If it's right, that's enough for you to win this question.
0:29:10 > 0:29:14Che Guevara, is it right, how many people said it?
0:29:14 > 0:29:15It's right, well done.
0:29:18 > 0:29:2126.
0:29:24 > 0:29:28After one question Tom and Jock are ahead. 1-0. Richard.
0:29:28 > 0:29:32Not Mussolini. We might have him in our famous fascists round, in a future show.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Let's take a look at the board,
0:29:34 > 0:29:37and we'll stumble upon C when we get to him.
0:29:37 > 0:29:42A is Chairman Mao, that would have scored you a fairly hefty 62 points.
0:29:42 > 0:29:46Now, B, is Leon Trotsky. That's Trotsky.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48That would have scored you eight points.
0:29:48 > 0:29:54C is the leader of Albania for over 40 years, Enver Hoxha. Enver Hoxha.
0:29:54 > 0:29:59He once had the word Enver engraved into a mountain by engineers.
0:29:59 > 0:30:01That's pretty cool, isn't it?
0:30:01 > 0:30:04He was a pointless answer, well done if you recognised him.
0:30:05 > 0:30:10D is Fidel Castro. That would've scored 61 points, just less than Mao.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12And very well done, Che Guevara, 26 points.
0:30:12 > 0:30:16Well done if you got all of those, especially Enver Hoxma.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19Here comes your second question.
0:30:19 > 0:30:23Cathy and Dermot, you have to win this question to stay in the game.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25Our second question concerns:
0:30:27 > 0:30:28Richard.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31We'll show you the names of five Woody Allen films,
0:30:31 > 0:30:35but due to an administrative error, we've left the last word off each of those films.
0:30:35 > 0:30:37Can you fill in the blank, please?
0:30:37 > 0:30:41Thanks, Richard. Let's reveal our five Woody Allen films
0:30:41 > 0:30:44with missing last words. Here they come.
0:30:55 > 0:30:56There you go.
0:30:56 > 0:31:00There are five Woody Allen films with the last words removed.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03Tom and Jock, you go first this time.
0:31:03 > 0:31:06(Take The Money And Run.)
0:31:07 > 0:31:08THEY WHISPER
0:31:11 > 0:31:15Can we go with Match, and the blank, Point.
0:31:15 > 0:31:16Match Point.
0:31:16 > 0:31:20OK, Match Point we have, from Tom and Jock.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22Cathy and Dermot, you can talk us
0:31:22 > 0:31:25through all the remaining films on the board, if you like.
0:31:25 > 0:31:30I think it's Hannah And Her Sisters, Take The Money And Run
0:31:30 > 0:31:33and Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
0:31:33 > 0:31:37What should we go for? Take The Money And...
0:31:37 > 0:31:39- Take The Money And Run. - Take The Money And Run.
0:31:39 > 0:31:41OK, Take The Money And Run.
0:31:41 > 0:31:45So we have Match Point and Take The Money And Run.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46Good luck.
0:31:46 > 0:31:50You need to win this question to stay in the game.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52Tom and Jock, Match Point. Is that right?
0:31:52 > 0:31:54If it is, how many people said it?
0:31:56 > 0:31:57Yep, it's right.
0:32:03 > 0:32:04Ooh, look at that! Wow, six!
0:32:04 > 0:32:06APPLAUSE
0:32:09 > 0:32:11Six for Match Point.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15Cathy and Dermot have gone Take The Money And Run.
0:32:15 > 0:32:20Let's see if that's right. Let's see if it can beat Match Point.
0:32:20 > 0:32:23That needs to go lower than six if you're to stay in the game.
0:32:24 > 0:32:25She's right.
0:32:27 > 0:32:32Ooh. Bad luck. That's a very high score. 72.
0:32:32 > 0:32:35Which means that after only two questions,
0:32:35 > 0:32:38Tom and Jock are through to the final, 2-0. Richard.
0:32:38 > 0:32:39Well played, guys.
0:32:39 > 0:32:41It turned out to be Match Point.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44- Have you seen Match Point?- Do you know who's in it?- Are you in it?
0:32:44 > 0:32:49- Yeah!- Are you?- Yeah! I've worked on two Woody Allen films, actually.
0:32:49 > 0:32:54I was in... What was that look? Yeah, yeah!
0:32:54 > 0:32:56- What was that look? - That was, "Goodness."
0:32:56 > 0:33:01- "How about that?"- Really?- Yeah. - It was great. I worked with him.
0:33:01 > 0:33:05- Scoop, the other one, wasn't it? - That's a film I haven't even seen.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09I shan't say what I was about to say about Match Point any way.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11No, you can.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13I thought it was terrific.
0:33:13 > 0:33:18Let's fill in the rest of the answers. Hannah And Her Sisters.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21Cathy, you're quite right. That would've scored you 48.
0:33:21 > 0:33:25Vicky Cristina Barcelona was been a better answer. It wouldn't have won the points
0:33:25 > 0:33:29but it was a much better answer than Take The Money And Run. 11 points.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32But you would have won at the bottom answer there.
0:33:32 > 0:33:34That is a very good film. That was a cracking film.
0:33:34 > 0:33:39It's a 1999 film set in the Jazz Age, Sweet And Lowdown.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41It's the best answer on the board with just four points.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43Well done if you said that at home.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47The losing pair at the end of the Head-to-Head, it's Cathy and Dermot.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49Oh, dear, oh, dear.
0:33:49 > 0:33:53You've made it through to the Head-to-Head both times.
0:33:53 > 0:33:56- Woody Allen films not a strong category for you.- No.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58- You knew most of them, didn't you?- Yeah.
0:33:58 > 0:34:03But they got in there with Match Point, I'm afraid.
0:34:03 > 0:34:08A film so obscure that only six people out of our 100 could even remember its name.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13- Terrific film, though. - What a great film(!) Whoa!
0:34:13 > 0:34:17Go and...watch something else. Um...
0:34:17 > 0:34:20Cathy and Dermot, I'm sorry, we have to say goodbye to you.
0:34:20 > 0:34:25- This really is goodbye. You've been wonderful contestants. Thank you for playing.- Thank you.
0:34:28 > 0:34:32But for Tom and Jock, it's now time for our Pointless Final.
0:34:36 > 0:34:41Congratulations, Tom and Jock. You've seen off the competition have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50You now have a chance to win our Pointless Jackpot.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53At the end of today's show the jackpot stands at:
0:34:57 > 0:35:00You've done phenomenally well.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02You've sprinted through the show
0:35:02 > 0:35:06and you've seen off an extremely strong pair in the Head-to-Head.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10No mean achievement. So here we are at the final.
0:35:10 > 0:35:14The rules are simple. To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:35:14 > 0:35:16We haven't had a pointless answers on the show today.
0:35:16 > 0:35:20All you need to do now is find one and you'll go home with that money.
0:35:20 > 0:35:24First you've got to choose a category. You can choose from these five options. They are:
0:35:32 > 0:35:34Not the three in the middle.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39- Not even slightly appealing. - Maybe the top.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42- The top's maybe more likely. - I guess.
0:35:42 > 0:35:44In theory I live in London, but...
0:35:44 > 0:35:46It's going to make it more embarrassing.
0:35:46 > 0:35:49- Should we go with London? - OK, London.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52We'll go with London and hopefully not live to regret it.
0:35:52 > 0:35:56You're going with London. Let's find the question. Here it comes.
0:35:56 > 0:36:01We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many London Underground stations
0:36:01 > 0:36:04beginning with a vowel as they could.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07We're looking for any station on the London Underground network
0:36:07 > 0:36:12whose name begins with a vowel. We're taking the names as they appear on the TfL Tube map.
0:36:12 > 0:36:14We won't except national rail,
0:36:14 > 0:36:17London Overground or Docklands Light Railway stations.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19OK. Thanks, Richard.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22You have one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26All you need to win that £2,000 is for just one of those answers
0:36:26 > 0:36:28to be pointless. You ready?
0:36:30 > 0:36:32Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:36:33 > 0:36:39- Your time starts now. - There's Arnos Grove.- Brilliant.
0:36:39 > 0:36:42There's Epping at the end of the Central Line. Uxminster.
0:36:42 > 0:36:48Those are pretty good. Olympia, but that's Kensington. I don't know if that's the same.
0:36:48 > 0:36:50There's another one I was thinking of.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52- Is there Acton, or East Acton? - There's East Action.
0:36:52 > 0:36:57- It's still a vowel.- Oh, yeah! What about Oxgrove?
0:36:57 > 0:37:03- And your Uxbridge one.- Uxbridge, Arnos Grove and East Acton?
0:37:03 > 0:37:06Just have a think, see if there's any more.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09The only reason we know Acton is cos it's two stops from here, so...
0:37:11 > 0:37:18- What else is there?- Ealing Broadway, kind of more obvious.- Um...
0:37:18 > 0:37:22Any with I?
0:37:22 > 0:37:26- No.- On the Docklands Light Railway, but we're not allowed that.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29- Ten seconds left. - Arnos Grove and...East Acton?
0:37:30 > 0:37:34- Yep.- OK.- You're happy? - Yeah.- Ahead of time.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37There we are. Your time is now up.
0:37:37 > 0:37:40We were looking for London Underground stations
0:37:40 > 0:37:42beginning with a vowel, and I need your answers.
0:37:42 > 0:37:46- East Acton, Uxminster... - Uxminster. OK.- And Arnos Grove.
0:37:46 > 0:37:49And Arnos Grove.
0:37:49 > 0:37:54Of those, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:37:54 > 0:37:58I've not heard of latter two, so I'd say Arnos Grove.
0:37:58 > 0:37:59I'd say Arnos Grove.
0:37:59 > 0:38:04I'm beginning to suspect I've confused Uxbridge and possibly a type of carpet?
0:38:04 > 0:38:08Not so confident any more. OK.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12- Should we put Uxminster first, maybe?- Yeah.
0:38:12 > 0:38:18And we'll put East Acton in the middle and Arnos Grove last.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21Let's put them up on the board in that order and here they are:
0:38:27 > 0:38:31We were looking for London Underground stations beginning with a vowel.
0:38:31 > 0:38:33Uxminster was your least confident answer.
0:38:33 > 0:38:37You only need to find one pointless answer to win that jackpot.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39Let's see if Uxminster is right,
0:38:39 > 0:38:41and if it is, how many people said it.
0:38:41 > 0:38:42Uxminster.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49Nope. I think we knew that one was coming, didn't we?
0:38:49 > 0:38:52Unfortunately not a pointless answer.
0:38:52 > 0:38:56You only gave two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58What will you do with the two grand?
0:38:58 > 0:39:00Um...
0:39:00 > 0:39:04Personally, I'd like to put it towards a circus arts course.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08- Hopefully. - Not content with the bagpipes.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11Can you bagpipe and juggle with one hand?
0:39:13 > 0:39:14- No.- Try it.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Tom, what would you do?
0:39:18 > 0:39:22Rather boringly, probably some accountancy course.
0:39:22 > 0:39:27That would be a very sensible thing to do. Very sensible. Very sensible.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29This is like a sort of mini-series from the 90s.
0:39:29 > 0:39:34One brother who wants to be a unicycling bagpiper and the other one doing his accountancy exams.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37I know. And you know what's going to happen.
0:39:37 > 0:39:41Tom will be going cap in hand to Jock saying,
0:39:41 > 0:39:44"I need just a bit more to get me through the next course."
0:39:46 > 0:39:50You're looking for London Underground stations beginning with a vowel.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52You're next answer was East Acton.
0:39:52 > 0:39:54This has to be right and pointless
0:39:54 > 0:39:58if you're going to win that jackpot. Let's see of it's right,
0:39:58 > 0:40:01and if it is, let's see how many people said East Acton.
0:40:02 > 0:40:06OK. It's right. Uxminster we knew was going to be wrong.
0:40:06 > 0:40:10But we're now on to something. East Acton, down it goes.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13If this goes all the way down to zero, you leave here with £2,000.
0:40:13 > 0:40:19Down it goes, still going d... Oh! Two! Two for East Acton.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27- That's very exciting. - Better than I thought.
0:40:27 > 0:40:30You put East Acton in the middle and Arnos Grove last.
0:40:30 > 0:40:31There was a reason.
0:40:31 > 0:40:35But it was probably the reason I said Uxminster in the beginning.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37That's true, but still.
0:40:37 > 0:40:41It could just be that Arnos Grove might do it for you.
0:40:41 > 0:40:46You only have one more chance to win today's jackpot of £2,000.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49Your last answer has to be right and it has to be pointless
0:40:49 > 0:40:51if you're going to take that money away.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54Let's see. We were looking for London Underground stations
0:40:54 > 0:40:57beginning with a vowel.
0:40:57 > 0:41:01For £2,000, Arnos Grove. Is it right?
0:41:01 > 0:41:03How many people said it?
0:41:07 > 0:41:11It is right. We went down to two with East Acton.
0:41:11 > 0:41:13You said this was your most confident answer.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16If this goes all the way down to zero, you leave here with £2,000.
0:41:16 > 0:41:19- Down it goes, into single figures. - Down it goes!
0:41:19 > 0:41:21Yes! You've done it!
0:41:21 > 0:41:22APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:41:24 > 0:41:30Very well done. Very well done. That's brilliant. Good work.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37Congratulations. Arnos Grove!
0:41:38 > 0:41:41A pointless answer.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43You've come all the way down from Kirkcudbright
0:41:43 > 0:41:48and you go back with £2,000. Very well done.
0:41:48 > 0:41:49APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:41:54 > 0:41:57- Richard, what about that? - Well played, Tom and Jock.
0:41:57 > 0:42:01That was terrific. Arnos Grove opened in 1932 and its name was chosen by a public vote.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04That public vote just won you £2,000.
0:42:04 > 0:42:08The big scorers, Euston, Oxford Circus Elephant and Castle...
0:42:08 > 0:42:13And there's an Uxbridge and an Upminster, so you cleverly
0:42:13 > 0:42:16put the two together to create a brand new Tube station, Uxminster.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19Let's take a look at the pointless answers.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31All of those are pointless. Well done if you said any of those.
0:42:31 > 0:42:33Thanks very much, Richard.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35Thanks again to our winning players, Tom and jock,
0:42:35 > 0:42:39who go away with today's jackpot of £2,000.
0:42:39 > 0:42:40APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:42:43 > 0:42:47Join us next time and we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test.
0:42:47 > 0:42:51- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And goodbye from me. Goodbye.
