0:00:23 > 0:00:25Thank you very much indeed. I'm Alexander Armstrong

0:00:25 > 0:00:27and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:27 > 0:00:29the quiz that puts obscure knowledge to the test.

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

0:00:34 > 0:00:39So welcome back, Natalie and Mark, our first pair on the show today.

0:00:39 > 0:00:41You were on the show last time.

0:00:41 > 0:00:43Everyone gets two chances to reach the final,

0:00:43 > 0:00:46this is your second chance. Natalie, remind us how you know each other.

0:00:46 > 0:00:50- We're brother and sister. - And what happened last time, Mark?

0:00:50 > 0:00:53- Er, we got to the head-to-head, we did OK.- You did all right.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57Yeah, we lost on Robin Hood and pictures of cats.

0:00:57 > 0:01:01- OK, d'you have any tactics after last time?- Keep putting me in first?

0:01:01 > 0:01:03You're going to go in first, the idea being what?

0:01:03 > 0:01:06You're the stronger one or Mark's the stronger one?

0:01:06 > 0:01:07Mark's definitely the stronger one.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10Really? So, you go in first and then he just sweeps up.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12Well, I am his younger sister, so...

0:01:12 > 0:01:15OK. Well, listen, Natalie and Mark, very best of luck.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18You were head-to-head last time. We've got to hope

0:01:18 > 0:01:21you're head-to-head this time, if not beyond.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24- Next, we welcome Tom and Darren. Where are you from, Tom?- Belfast.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27From Belfast, and how do you know each other, Darren?

0:01:27 > 0:01:31- Erm, Tom's my brother-in-law, he's married to my little sister.- Good.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34- What d'you do for a living, Tom? - I work for a local council.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37- And you, Darren?- I'm a librarian. - Which library?

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Erm, a large central library in the middle of Belfast.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43- Oh, are we not allowed to say what it is?- It's Belfast Central Library.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46- Oh, there we are! - LAUGHTER

0:01:46 > 0:01:49It's great to have you here, Tom and Darren. A very warm welcome.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52Next we welcome Rich and Becki. How do you two know each other?

0:01:52 > 0:01:56We met about ten years ago in a very cheesy dance club in Birmingham

0:01:56 > 0:01:58where me and a few of my friends

0:01:58 > 0:02:00rescued Becki from some horrible stalker,

0:02:00 > 0:02:04and since then she's managed to hitch up with my best friend.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08That wasn't how I was expecting that one to turn out! What?

0:02:08 > 0:02:11- What do you do, Becki? - I'm a housing officer

0:02:11 > 0:02:14at a housing association in Birmingham.

0:02:14 > 0:02:15Rich, what do you do?

0:02:15 > 0:02:18I'm a financial advisor for a large high street bank.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21And what do you like to do when you're not doing that?

0:02:21 > 0:02:24I'm a big cricket fan, captain of a local cricket team.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Cricket, obviously, a great subject. What else would you like to come up?

0:02:27 > 0:02:28I'd love a bit of geography.

0:02:28 > 0:02:32When I was a little kid, I was frightened of the dark.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34This does go somewhere, I promise.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37My parents bought me a nightlight, which was a globe.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40And that globe, I used to just look at it all the time

0:02:40 > 0:02:43and I just remember the capital cities of a lot of them.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45Very good, that's a brilliant way of learning it, isn't it?

0:02:45 > 0:02:47A lot of them have changed now.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49- Didn't get any sleep, but my goodness...- I was about eight,

0:02:49 > 0:02:52- so they have changed.- Very good.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Best of luck, Rich and Becki. It's lovely to have you here.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56And finally, we welcome Heath and Ben.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58How do you two know each other, Heath?

0:02:58 > 0:03:01We work together. Same company.

0:03:01 > 0:03:04And where is that and what is it, Ben?

0:03:04 > 0:03:07It's one of the UK's largest food manufacturers,

0:03:07 > 0:03:11and it's in Plymouth, but we've got places all over the country.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13Which departments do you work in?

0:03:13 > 0:03:16- Well, I'm a health and safety manager.- Are you?- Yes.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18How's Pointless been so far?

0:03:18 > 0:03:20LAUGHTER

0:03:20 > 0:03:23No comment. No, it's fine.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27Tell you what, we've got quite a lot of dangerous questions, haven't we?

0:03:29 > 0:03:31LAUGHTER

0:03:31 > 0:03:35- And Heath, which department are you in?- I'm a transport manager.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38Ah, you see, that feeds into a fantastic knowledge

0:03:38 > 0:03:44of Britain's road networks, rail networks, motorway services...no?

0:03:44 > 0:03:48Just stop me when I say something that's going to be...

0:03:48 > 0:03:50- Superstores would be good. - Superstores. There we are.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53Well, lovely to have you here. Best of luck to the pair of you.

0:03:53 > 0:03:56We'll find out more about all of you throughout the show.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58There's only one person left to introduce.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01He'll be giving the questions and answers while under the desk

0:04:01 > 0:04:04completing a Rubik's Cube with just his bare feet.

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

0:04:07 > 0:04:09CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:04:13 > 0:04:16- How are you today?- I'm very well, thank you, Richard.- Excellent.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19Only one return...finished! Only one...

0:04:19 > 0:04:21LAUGHTER

0:04:21 > 0:04:24Only one returning pair, Natalie and Mark, but they were good last time.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27Got through to the head-to-head.

0:04:27 > 0:04:31I will say for you, though, Round One is going to be very interesting.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33- For me?- Yes, one of my favourite bits of the show is,

0:04:33 > 0:04:36cos you've never seen the questions before, is seeing you

0:04:36 > 0:04:37try and pronounce things.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39And...

0:04:39 > 0:04:40LAUGHTER

0:04:40 > 0:04:44Round One, there's some pretty tricky pronunciations in that round.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47It's very lucky we've got a health & safety officer with us,

0:04:47 > 0:04:49cos I think there may be an accident or two.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52Thank you, Richard. Our questions have been put to 100 people

0:04:52 > 0:04:55before the show, but we're looking for the answers they didn't get.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58To stay in the game and be in with a chance of winning our jackpot,

0:04:58 > 0:05:01all our players need to do is score as few points as they possibly can.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07That's an answer that none of our 100 people gave.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09Each time that happens, we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13Nobody won the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16So today's jackpot starts off at £3,000.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:05:21 > 0:05:23OK, let's play Pointless.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32OK, in this first round, each of you must give me one answer

0:05:32 > 0:05:37and you cannot confer. Whichever pair has the highest score

0:05:37 > 0:05:39at the end of the round will be eliminated.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42If you give me an incorrect answer, you will score 100 points,

0:05:42 > 0:05:44so do try and avoid those if you can.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47OK, our first category today is...

0:05:48 > 0:05:51OK, can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:05:51 > 0:05:52who's going to go second.

0:05:54 > 0:05:56And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02OK, our question concerns...

0:06:06 > 0:06:09Metro stations of the world, Richard.

0:06:09 > 0:06:13On each pass, we're going to show you seven pairs of Metro stations.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16Those pairs are all from one individual city. Can you tell us

0:06:16 > 0:06:19the name of that city? A nice obscure answer will score fewer points.

0:06:19 > 0:06:23Incorrect answer, though, 100 points. 14 in all to have a go at at home,

0:06:23 > 0:06:26some of them very difficult to pronounce. Best of luck, everybody.

0:06:26 > 0:06:31OK, now then, Natalie and Mark, you all drew lots before the show

0:06:31 > 0:06:33and today you are going first.

0:06:33 > 0:06:37So we are looking for the cities of the world in which these pairs

0:06:37 > 0:06:41of Metro stations are to be found, and we have got...

0:07:01 > 0:07:04LAUGHTER

0:07:07 > 0:07:10She's my favourite! I'll read them all one more time.

0:07:28 > 0:07:33- Natalie. Have you been to Bambang, Betty Go-Belmonte?- No.

0:07:33 > 0:07:38I'll go for Gran Via and Goya and say Paris.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41OK, Gran Via, Goya. Natalie says Paris.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Let's see if that's right and if it is,

0:07:43 > 0:07:45let's see how many people said Paris.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53I'm sorry. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, Natalie,

0:07:53 > 0:07:55as I think you probably knew.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57That scores you 100 points. Sorry. Richard.

0:07:57 > 0:07:58I'll give you the correct answer

0:07:58 > 0:08:00at the end of the round,

0:08:00 > 0:08:02but your tactic of giving a bad answer

0:08:02 > 0:08:04then letting Mark win the round for you

0:08:04 > 0:08:05is working PERFECTLY so far.

0:08:05 > 0:08:06You are halfway there.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13Tom. How does that board behind me look to you?

0:08:13 > 0:08:17There's only one that I can really say I would be confident with,

0:08:17 > 0:08:20and that would be South Ferry, Grand Central.

0:08:20 > 0:08:24- New York.- Let's see if that's right and if it is,

0:08:24 > 0:08:28let's see how many people said New York for South Ferry, Grand Central.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30It's right.

0:08:31 > 0:08:3360.

0:08:34 > 0:08:37Not bad at all.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41- New York.- Good answer, Tom.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Their transit system carries 1.6 billion passengers a year.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46- Rich.- Hello.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Now then, we are looking for the cities in which you would find

0:08:49 > 0:08:51these pairs of Metro stations.

0:08:51 > 0:08:55I can safely say that none of those were on my nightlight,

0:08:55 > 0:09:00erm...I've got a vague stab at a couple of them,

0:09:00 > 0:09:05on the basis that I think Giza is where the pyramids are.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09I'm going to go with Nasser, Giza Railway and say Cairo.

0:09:09 > 0:09:12Fantastic piece of deduction if right. Let's see if it is.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15How many people said Cairo for Nasser, Giza Railway?

0:09:18 > 0:09:19Absolutely right.

0:09:24 > 0:09:2520.

0:09:27 > 0:09:2820 for Cairo.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32These are all nice round numbers. Richard.

0:09:32 > 0:09:36Well worked out, Rich. Actually, Cairo's is the first Metro system

0:09:36 > 0:09:40- in the whole of Africa. Opened in 1990.- Ben.

0:09:40 > 0:09:45OK, erm...the one I'm most confident at having a punt at

0:09:45 > 0:09:49and getting it right is going to be Bastille and Musee D'Orsay,

0:09:49 > 0:09:52and I'm going to say that that's probably French,

0:09:52 > 0:09:53so I'm going to say Paris.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55OK, let's see if that's right, Paris,

0:09:55 > 0:09:58and if it is, how many people said it?

0:09:59 > 0:10:01Yes, of course it's Paris.

0:10:03 > 0:10:0550.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08The round numbers continue.

0:10:08 > 0:10:12- Paris, Richard.- Well worked out again. 1900 that opened.

0:10:12 > 0:10:16It's got 301 stations. Let's go through the rest of the board.

0:10:17 > 0:10:21The Alexanderplatz and Brandenburger Tor are in Berlin.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23Would have scored you 29 points.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26What do you think about Gran Via and Goya? It's not Paris.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28- It's Madrid.- That is Madrid.

0:10:28 > 0:10:33- Would have scored eight points. Waitakare and Mount Eden?- No idea.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35- It's in Auckland.- It's in Auckland in New Zealand.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Would have scored you five points.

0:10:37 > 0:10:41And unbelievably, Bambang, Betty Go-Belmonte is a pointless answer.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45It's in Manila. It's in Manila. Almost worth visiting, isn't it?

0:10:45 > 0:10:47Thanks very much, Richard.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52Well, the lowest score of the round so far

0:10:52 > 0:10:54was Rich's. 20 is what you're on.

0:10:54 > 0:10:58Then we go up to 50, where we find Ben and Heath.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01Then up to 60, where we find Tom and Darren,

0:11:01 > 0:11:04and then up to 100, where we find Natalie and Mark.

0:11:04 > 0:11:08Mark, you know exactly what you have to do in this next pass.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11So, yes, got a bit of time to get thinking.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:11:16 > 0:11:19OK, we've put seven more pairs of Metro stations onto the board,

0:11:19 > 0:11:22and here they come. We have got...

0:11:46 > 0:11:48I'll read them all one more time.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09There we are. We are looking for the cities in which these pairs

0:12:09 > 0:12:11of Metro stations are to be found.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14You're trying to find the one that you think the fewest

0:12:14 > 0:12:16of our 100 people thought of.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18Now then, Heath,

0:12:18 > 0:12:20the stage is yours.

0:12:20 > 0:12:22There's one that I think maybe, but there's one

0:12:22 > 0:12:25that I'm fairly confident of and I think that's the one to go with.

0:12:25 > 0:12:29And that would be Pentagon, Arlington Cemetery being Washington.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32OK, the highest scorers are Mark and Natalie on 100.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34You're on 50, which means

0:12:34 > 0:12:36a score of 49 or less will see you through to the next round.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40There's your red line, Heath. Below that red line,

0:12:40 > 0:12:41you are through to the next round.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44Washington.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47It's right.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50Ooh! Oh, look at that!

0:12:50 > 0:12:55Absolutely bang on the score you needed. Scores you 49.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57Takes your total up to 99

0:12:57 > 0:13:00and sees you comfortably into the next round.

0:13:00 > 0:13:02- Richard.- I wouldn't say comfortably.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05It does seem them into the next round, though. Very classily done.

0:13:05 > 0:13:06Did it on purpose.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08Opened in 1976,

0:13:08 > 0:13:12the first line in the Washington Metro system.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15Becki. You're on 20.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17The highest scorers

0:13:17 > 0:13:18are Mark and Natalie on 100,

0:13:18 > 0:13:22which means a score of 79 or less will see you into the next round.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24- What do you think of that board? - Erm, not liking it very much.

0:13:24 > 0:13:25I'll be quite honest,

0:13:25 > 0:13:30because I have no idea with cities at all.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33I think I'm just going to go with whatever I say

0:13:33 > 0:13:35cos it's going to be wrong.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38So, Circo Massimo and say Turkey?

0:13:38 > 0:13:40OK, you're going to say Turkey

0:13:40 > 0:13:43for Circo Massimo, Basilica San Paolo.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45Let's see if that's right and if it is,

0:13:45 > 0:13:47let's see how many people said it.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Bad luck, Becki. As I think you knew,

0:13:49 > 0:13:53that's an incorrect answer which scores you 100 points.

0:13:53 > 0:13:54Takes your total up to 120.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56It may not all be over for you, though.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58The round isn't finished yet.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00So then, Darren.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02We come to you.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Your score is 60. The highest scorers at the moment

0:14:04 > 0:14:07on 120 are Becki and Rich,

0:14:07 > 0:14:10which means a score of 59 or less will see you through.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12We are looking for

0:14:12 > 0:14:15the cities of the world in which these pairs of Metro stations

0:14:15 > 0:14:16are top be found.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19I'm going to go for two stations that are on

0:14:19 > 0:14:23what's colloquially known as the Clockwork Orange in Glasgow,

0:14:23 > 0:14:25and that's Govan and Kelvinbridge.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29Glasgow, says Darren, for Govan and Kelvinbridge.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31Sounds like a great answer to me.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34That's your red line. If you get below that,

0:14:34 > 0:14:36you are through to the next round.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39Glasgow. Is it right? How many people said it?

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Very well done, Darren. That's brilliant.

0:14:45 > 0:14:4726, another lovely low score.

0:14:47 > 0:14:52Takes your total up to 86. Sees you comfortably into the next round.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Well done, Darren. Tactically aware as well.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56Known as the Clockwork Orange

0:14:56 > 0:14:59cos of its circular shape and the trains are an orange colour.

0:14:59 > 0:15:01Now then...

0:15:01 > 0:15:04- Mark.- Yes.- Mark, Mark, Mark.

0:15:04 > 0:15:08Our high scorers are still Becky and Rich on 120. You are on 100.

0:15:08 > 0:15:12This is a little bit dangerous, here. You have to score 19 or less to stay in the game.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14I'm not certain about any of them,

0:15:14 > 0:15:20but Harbourside / Bondi Junction is probably Australia, so I'd say maybe Brisbane.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22Olympic Park / World Cup Stadium,

0:15:22 > 0:15:25I don't know where would have held both, but maybe Munich.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28Mall Of The Emirates could be Dubai.

0:15:28 > 0:15:32The bottom one could be Italian, so it could be Rome.

0:15:32 > 0:15:37But Myllypuro / Herttoniemi sounds Finnish,

0:15:37 > 0:15:40so I'm going to go for Helsinki as my answer.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Myllypuro / Herttoniemi - Helsinki says Mark.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45What do you think, Natalie?

0:15:45 > 0:15:49Well, it's going to be a lot better than what I said, anyway, whatever happens.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52There's your red line. If you get below that red line with Helsinki,

0:15:52 > 0:15:55you are through to the next round and you've done phenomenally well.

0:15:55 > 0:15:59Let's see if it's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said Helsinki.

0:16:02 > 0:16:04Mark, that is superb.

0:16:07 > 0:16:11And you've done it! Oh! It's pointless!

0:16:11 > 0:16:13Very, very well done indeed!

0:16:13 > 0:16:17That's pointless. It adds £250 to today's jackpot,

0:16:17 > 0:16:20takes the total up to £3,250.

0:16:20 > 0:16:24It scores you nothing, and it leaves your total at 100 points.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27Mark, congratulations for so many reasons,

0:16:27 > 0:16:30but chiefly for a brilliant end to our first round. Richard.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33Very well played Mark, again. You were brilliant last time, brilliant again,

0:16:33 > 0:16:35but I think the real congratulations

0:16:35 > 0:16:39need to go to Natalie for getting the tactics perfect once again.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42She said at the start what she was going to do, absolutely did it,

0:16:42 > 0:16:46follow through, got 100, let her brother come in and get the zero.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49Perfect. I mean, how else do you play Pointless? Let's take a look at the rest.

0:16:49 > 0:16:53If you'd said Brisbane for Harbourside / Bondi Junction, you would have just got 100 points.

0:16:53 > 0:16:57It's Sydney. That would've scored 28 points.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00Atlantis / Mall Of The Emirates, you're absolutely right was Dubai,

0:17:00 > 0:17:04but that would have scored you too many points, 31, would have seen you knocked out.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Circo Massimo / Basilica San Paolo not in Turkey.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10You're right, it's in Rome, would have seen you through, actually, on 17 points.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13And you're quite right, you're looking for a city

0:17:13 > 0:17:17that's held the Olympics and the World Cup for that last one, and it's Seoul.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19Very well done if you said that, 1 point.

0:17:19 > 0:17:23Very good indeed. Thank you, Richard. Very, very exciting round.

0:17:23 > 0:17:27So, at the end of that first round, the losing pair with the highest score,

0:17:27 > 0:17:28I'm afraid it's Rich and Becky.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30That was a nailbiter, though, wasn't it?

0:17:30 > 0:17:31I was going to say Dubai,

0:17:31 > 0:17:34but thought it was completely wrong, so didn't.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36- Oh, well.- Turkey was a good stab, though.- Yeah.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39LAUGHTER

0:17:39 > 0:17:43- Shall we just leave you to it, you want to sort this out? - We'll be all right.

0:17:43 > 0:17:47You're going to be fine, absolutely fine. It was a really tough board, that, though.

0:17:47 > 0:17:51You're coming back next time. That's all we need to know. We look forward to that very much indeed,

0:17:51 > 0:17:52and we won't have this again, I promise.

0:17:52 > 0:17:56- OK, look forward to it. Thanks so much, Becky and Rich. - Thank you.- Great contestants.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58APPLAUSE

0:17:58 > 0:18:01But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:18:06 > 0:18:10Obviously there's only going to be room for two pairs in the head-to-head,

0:18:10 > 0:18:14so one of the teams in front of me now will be leaving us at the end of this round.

0:18:14 > 0:18:18So, our category for Round Two is...

0:18:18 > 0:18:19Acting Brothers.

0:18:19 > 0:18:23Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,

0:18:23 > 0:18:25- who's going to go second. - INAUDIBLE WHISPERING

0:18:25 > 0:18:27And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:18:33 > 0:18:38to name as many Ralph and Joseph Fiennes films as they could.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40Ralph and Joseph Fiennes films. Richard.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43Yes, we're looking for any feature film made for cinema release

0:18:43 > 0:18:47for which either Ralph Fiennes or Joseph Fiennes has received an acting credit

0:18:47 > 0:18:53up to the beginning of 2012, please. As always, no TV films, no short films, documentaries.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Voice performances do count. Very best of luck.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59OK, thanks very much, Richard. Now then, Natalie.

0:18:59 > 0:19:04What is the most obscure Ralph or Joseph Fiennes film you can think of?

0:19:04 > 0:19:07- I've never heard of either of them... - LAUGHTER

0:19:07 > 0:19:10..let alone know any of their films.

0:19:10 > 0:19:14Let's go for A Few Good Men.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17A Few Good Men. Let's see if that's right,

0:19:17 > 0:19:21and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said A Few Good Men.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26Bad luck. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,

0:19:26 > 0:19:29which means you score the maximum of 100 points. I'm sorry, Natalie.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32Sorry, Natalie, that's Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson starring in that.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35- It is a film. - It is DEFINITELY a film.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37LAUGHTER

0:19:37 > 0:19:38Darren.

0:19:38 > 0:19:43Joseph or Ralph Fiennes films.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince?

0:19:46 > 0:19:49Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince, says Darren.

0:19:49 > 0:19:53Let's see that's right, and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said that.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Ooh!

0:19:59 > 0:20:03Bad luck. Darren, an incorrect answer.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Sorry about that, Darren. That scores you 100 points.

0:20:06 > 0:20:10Now then, Heath. Joseph or Ralph Fiennes.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13- I've absolutely no idea at all. - It's another of those rounds, Richard.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15Yeah. LAUGHTER

0:20:15 > 0:20:17So I think I'm just going to be a bit cheeky,

0:20:17 > 0:20:20and say Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone.

0:20:20 > 0:20:25Little bit cheeky, but quite clever. Let's see if it's right, and if it is,

0:20:25 > 0:20:27let's see how many of our 100 people said it.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33Unfortunately also an incorrect answer,

0:20:33 > 0:20:37which means you also score 100 points, Heath.

0:20:37 > 0:20:40Cheeky, clever, incorrect.

0:20:40 > 0:20:42LAUGHTER

0:20:42 > 0:20:45OK, well, let's go through that score.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47LAUGHTER

0:20:47 > 0:20:51Erm... Well, it's all to play for.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55Let's come back down the line. Will the second players please take their places at the podium.

0:20:57 > 0:21:01OK, we are looking for Ralph or Joseph Fiennes films.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07- Ben, you are joint high scorers on 100 points.- Yeah.

0:21:07 > 0:21:12I'm fairly sure I know who they are, which is a good start.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15But as for what films they've been in, I'm not sure.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18So, a complete punt, and I'm going to say

0:21:18 > 0:21:20Mrs Brown.

0:21:20 > 0:21:24Mrs Brown, says Ben. Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30Bad luck, Ben. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,

0:21:30 > 0:21:34which means you score 100 points, takes your total up to 200 points.

0:21:34 > 0:21:38Now, we've never, in Pointless history, had a 600 Round Two before.

0:21:38 > 0:21:42LAUGHTER So firstly, that would be fun.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44But even more fun is if that does happen,

0:21:44 > 0:21:47we then have to do a tie-break, where, obviously,

0:21:47 > 0:21:52you have to name another Ralph Fiennes or Joseph Fiennes film. LAUGHTER

0:21:52 > 0:21:56so we could be here some time. LAUGHTER

0:21:56 > 0:22:02Now then, Tom. The high scorers at the moment are Ben and Heath on 200.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04- You are on 100.- Yeah.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06If you want to get through to the next round,

0:22:06 > 0:22:09all you have to do is score 99 or less.

0:22:09 > 0:22:14- OK.- How are you on your Joseph and/or, Joseph Fiennes films?

0:22:14 > 0:22:19- I'll go with Red Dragon. - Let's see if it's right, and how many people said it. Red Dragon.

0:22:20 > 0:22:25It's right. Very, very well done, Tom. How does that feel?

0:22:25 > 0:22:27Brilliant. Oh, come on!

0:22:29 > 0:22:33- Well done, Tom! - Very, very well done indeed. - I thought it would be higher.

0:22:33 > 0:22:373 for Red Dragon takes your total up to 103.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40- You are through to the next round. Richard.- Yeah, very good answer.

0:22:40 > 0:22:44Ralph Fiennes, of course, in there. One of the Hannibal Lecter films. Please Francis Dolarhyde.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47Yes! We got one.

0:22:48 > 0:22:52Now then, Mark. The high scorers are Ben and Heath on 200. You are on 100, which means, again,

0:22:52 > 0:22:56a score of 99 or less will see you through to the head-to-head.

0:22:56 > 0:23:01I'm going to try The Silence Of The Lambs.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04Let's see if Silence Of The Lambs is right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07The Silence Of The Lambs.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11Ooh! That's an incorrect answer, I'm afraid.

0:23:11 > 0:23:16Which means you score 100 points. That takes your total up to 200.

0:23:16 > 0:23:21- This is fun, Richard, this is fun. - Yeah.- OK, so, here we go. It's a tie.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24So the tied pairs have to give me one more answer each,

0:23:24 > 0:23:27and the pair that gets the highest score will be eliminated.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30You are now allowed to confer.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33LAUGHTER

0:23:33 > 0:23:35So that's good news, isn't it?

0:23:35 > 0:23:40Now then, Mark and Natalie, you are to go first.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43We are looking for Ralph or Joseph Fiennes films.

0:23:43 > 0:23:49- (Shall we say a later one?)- (I go for Goblet Of Fire.)- (Yeah. OK.)

0:23:49 > 0:23:52OK, Mark and Natalie.

0:23:53 > 0:23:58We're going to go for Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01OK, let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people

0:24:01 > 0:24:04said Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08It's right!

0:24:08 > 0:24:11Oh! Oh-ho-ho!

0:24:13 > 0:24:18Oh, very, very well done! Very well done indeed.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20APPLAUSE

0:24:21 > 0:24:24Drama's never very far away with you two, is it?

0:24:24 > 0:24:26That scores you 1.

0:24:26 > 0:24:30Takes your total up to 201.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34Now then, Ben and Heath. In order to get through to the head-to-head,

0:24:34 > 0:24:37you need a pointless answer.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40Indeed we do, and unfortunately our conversation clearly went

0:24:40 > 0:24:43exactly the same as Mark and Natalie,

0:24:43 > 0:24:47so we're going to stick with the same theme, and were going to say Harry Potter...

0:24:47 > 0:24:48And The Prisoner Of Azkaban.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban. Let's see if that's right,

0:24:52 > 0:24:55and if it is, let's see how many people said that.

0:24:59 > 0:25:00Oh!

0:25:00 > 0:25:04Well, that's decisive, at least. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, Ben and Heath.

0:25:04 > 0:25:09That takes your total up to 300 points.

0:25:09 > 0:25:14- Richard. - That whole round very much dominated by Lord Voldemort, there.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17- Which is typical of him, isn't it? - Yeah.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20Ralph Fiennes, he did play Lord Voldemort, he only played him in four of the films.

0:25:20 > 0:25:24Obviously he's in The Goblet Of Fire. He's not in the prisoner of Azkaban.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26He's in Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix,

0:25:26 > 0:25:30if you'd said that you'd have scored 1 point and we'd still be here.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32LAUGHTER So I'm very glad you didn't.

0:25:32 > 0:25:36But if you'd said Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, Part One or

0:25:36 > 0:25:40Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, Part Two, both pointless answers. So would have seen you through.

0:25:40 > 0:25:44And very well done if you said either of those at home. If we still have time before the news...

0:25:44 > 0:25:47LAUGHER ..let's take a look at the other pointless answers.

0:25:47 > 0:25:51Cemetery Junction, Ralph Fiennes is in that, the Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant film.

0:25:51 > 0:25:52Goodbye Bafana, that's Joseph Fiennes.

0:25:52 > 0:25:56There's Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, Part One. Part two, also pointless.

0:25:56 > 0:25:59Maid In Manhattan, Ralph Fiennes and Jennifer Lopez.

0:25:59 > 0:26:02Nanny McPhee and the big bang, Ralph Fiennes plays Lord Gray in that.

0:26:02 > 0:26:07Oscar And Lucinda, he plays Oscar opposite Cate Blanchett's Lucinda.

0:26:07 > 0:26:10Ralph Fiennes, that is. Stealing Beauty, that's Joseph Fiennes.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13The Merchant Of Venice, Joseph Fiennes again with Al Pacino.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16And Ralph Fiennes is the voice of Victor Quartermaine

0:26:16 > 0:26:18in Wallace And Gromit: The Curse Of The Were-Rabbit.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21Very well done if you said any of those at home.

0:26:21 > 0:26:25So, Ben and Heath, a historic round.

0:26:25 > 0:26:27Very, very high scores there.

0:26:27 > 0:26:30The famous Fiennes Round, as it'll I'm sure be known forever and ever.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Have you any tips you're going to take away

0:26:33 > 0:26:35from your first Pointless experience?

0:26:35 > 0:26:36Some tactics you might bring back?

0:26:36 > 0:26:38- Score less than 300.- OK.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41It is a good score that, isn't it? 300.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Not many members are in our 300 Club.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47Anyway, we'll look forward to seeing you again next time, Ben and Heath.

0:26:47 > 0:26:49But meanwhile, thank you both so much for playing.

0:26:51 > 0:26:54But for the remaining two players, things are about to get

0:26:54 > 0:26:57even more exciting now, as we enter the head-to-head.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05Congratulations, Tom and Darren, Natalie and Mark.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08You are now only one round away from the final, and a chance to play

0:27:08 > 0:27:12for the jackpot, which currently stands at £3,250.

0:27:16 > 0:27:18Now, obviously only one player can play for that money,

0:27:18 > 0:27:20so to decide which pair it's going to be,

0:27:20 > 0:27:23you are now going to go head-to-head on the best of three questions.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27The first pair to win two questions will be playing for the jackpot.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30And you are now of course allowed to confer.

0:27:30 > 0:27:32Let's play the head-to-head.

0:27:37 > 0:27:42Here comes your first question, and it concerns Famous Foodies.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45Famous Foodies, Richard.

0:27:45 > 0:27:49For this question, we'll show you five pictures of people famous within the world of cookery.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52Can you tell us who they are, please?

0:27:52 > 0:27:55OK. Thank you very much. Let's reveal our five famous foodies.

0:27:55 > 0:27:58And here they come. We have got...

0:28:09 > 0:28:11So, there they are.

0:28:11 > 0:28:15Five famous foodies.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18Now, Tom and Darren, you've played best throughout the show so far,

0:28:18 > 0:28:19so you get to go first.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22THEY CONFER

0:28:22 > 0:28:24- Are you 100% sure?- Yeah. - Go for it, then.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27- Do you want to go for it? - Yeah, OK.- Go ahead.

0:28:27 > 0:28:31I think go for A, and that's Mary Berry.

0:28:31 > 0:28:33Mary Berry.

0:28:33 > 0:28:36A, Mary Berry.

0:28:36 > 0:28:38Natalie and Mark.

0:28:38 > 0:28:41We think B is Levi Roots,

0:28:41 > 0:28:44who makes the hot sauce.

0:28:44 > 0:28:46C is Nigella Lawson.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48D, I think, is Ken Hom.

0:28:50 > 0:28:52- I'm not sure about E.- Don't know E.

0:28:52 > 0:28:53- Will we go for B?- Yeah.

0:28:53 > 0:28:56We're going to go for B, Levi Roots.

0:28:56 > 0:28:58B, Levi Roots.

0:28:58 > 0:29:02So, we have Tom and Darren saying that A is Mary Berry.

0:29:02 > 0:29:06Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said A was Mary Berry.

0:29:09 > 0:29:10It's right.

0:29:15 > 0:29:16Very well done. 17.

0:29:21 > 0:29:2317 for Mary Berry.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26Now then, Mark and Natalie, you have said B, Levi Roots.

0:29:26 > 0:29:30Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said that.

0:29:30 > 0:29:34It's right. Now 17 as the score you've got to beat.

0:29:35 > 0:29:36It's going to be close.

0:29:36 > 0:29:39Oh! 21.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45Mary Berry beats Levi Roots.

0:29:45 > 0:29:48Which means, Tom and Darren, you are ahead one-nil after one question.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50- Richard?- Yeah, good tussle there, guys.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53One answer would've won you the point. That's E.

0:29:53 > 0:29:56We'll get to her in a moment. C is Nigella Lawson.

0:29:56 > 0:29:58That would have scored you 64.

0:29:58 > 0:30:00D, you're quite right, Ken Hom.

0:30:00 > 0:30:02He would have scored 32.

0:30:02 > 0:30:05- Now, E, do you know who it is?- I do.

0:30:05 > 0:30:07Angela Hartnett.

0:30:07 > 0:30:10Angela Hartnett, absolutely right, would have scored 5 points.

0:30:10 > 0:30:12Thank you very much, Richard.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15Here comes your second question, Natalie and Mark.

0:30:15 > 0:30:17You had to win this question to stay in the game.

0:30:17 > 0:30:20OK, your second question concerns...

0:30:20 > 0:30:21Alice's Adventures.

0:30:23 > 0:30:24Alice's Adventures, Richard.

0:30:24 > 0:30:26We're going to show you five clues

0:30:26 > 0:30:29to facts about Lewis Carroll's two Alice books.

0:30:29 > 0:30:32Give us the most obscure answer and you'll score the point.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34OK, thank you very much.

0:30:34 > 0:30:37Let's reveal our five clues to facts about Alice's Adventures.

0:30:37 > 0:30:38And here they are.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58I'll read those all one more time.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14Natalie and Mark.

0:31:14 > 0:31:16Yeah.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19Er... We think we may know one.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21I would probably guess the century,

0:31:21 > 0:31:24but I think we're going to go for the nonsense poem, the Jabberwocky.

0:31:24 > 0:31:27Jabberwocky, you are saying, for the nonsense poem.

0:31:27 > 0:31:31Tom and Darren.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34We'll go for croquet, the game Alice attempts to play with Flamingo and Hedgehog.

0:31:34 > 0:31:38Croquet. OK, so, we have Jabberwocky and croquet.

0:31:38 > 0:31:40Natalie and Mark have said Jabberwocky is the name

0:31:40 > 0:31:41of the nonsense poem.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44Let's see if that's right, and if so, how many people said it.

0:31:44 > 0:31:48This is the question you have to win, Natalie and Mark.

0:31:53 > 0:31:56Well, it's right, and it's going all the way down...

0:31:56 > 0:31:58Oh! 15. Very well done.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05Tom and Darren have said croquet

0:32:05 > 0:32:08is the game Alice attempts to play with Flamingo and Hedgehog.

0:32:08 > 0:32:10Let's see if that's right, and if so, how many people said it.

0:32:13 > 0:32:15It's right.

0:32:15 > 0:32:1715 is the score you have to beat.

0:32:17 > 0:32:18Ooh. 46.

0:32:22 > 0:32:26Well done, Natalie and Mark, you have won that point.

0:32:26 > 0:32:29Which means, after two questions, you are absolutely even. One-all.

0:32:29 > 0:32:32- Richard.- It's a great show, and this is a great head-to-head as well.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34Well played, both teams again.

0:32:34 > 0:32:38The one that would have won you the point, unsurprisingly, is the real name of Lewis Carroll,

0:32:38 > 0:32:39and it's Charles Dodgson.

0:32:39 > 0:32:42Would have scored you three points.

0:32:42 > 0:32:46The books were published in the 19th century, Wonderland in 1865,

0:32:46 > 0:32:49and Looking Glass, 1871, would have scored you 36 points.

0:32:49 > 0:32:51And the twins that fought over a rattle

0:32:51 > 0:32:55were Tweedledum and Tweedledee. Would have scored you 38 points.

0:32:55 > 0:32:58Thank you very much. Here comes your third question, the decider.

0:32:58 > 0:33:01Whoever wins this question goes through to the final.

0:33:01 > 0:33:04Here it comes, it concerns...

0:33:06 > 0:33:08Women In British Politics. Richard?

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Yeah, we're going to show you the names of five women who have

0:33:10 > 0:33:13achieved notable firsts in British politics.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16But to make things slightly harder, their names are all in anagram form.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19Can you solve the anagrams and pick the most obscure, please?

0:33:19 > 0:33:21Good luck, both teams.

0:33:21 > 0:33:26Very good. OK, let's reveal our five anagrams of women in politics.

0:33:27 > 0:33:28And we have...

0:33:38 > 0:33:41I'll read those all one more time.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51OK. Tom and Darren, you go first this time again.

0:33:51 > 0:33:54That's horrible. That's really difficult.

0:33:56 > 0:34:00But we finally worked out who Nasty Acorn was.

0:34:00 > 0:34:04And she was Nancy Astor.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07Nancy Astor is Nasty Acorn...

0:34:07 > 0:34:12Natalie and Mark, talk us through all the other answers.

0:34:13 > 0:34:16Er... It's pretty tough.

0:34:16 > 0:34:19That Great Charmer, I think, is Margaret Thatcher.

0:34:19 > 0:34:23I think Quit Cash Jim could be Asquiths, but I don't know.

0:34:23 > 0:34:24It doesn't seem to make a name.

0:34:24 > 0:34:28Er... I'll go for Tory Hot Body Bet, um, Betty Boothroyd.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30- WE'LL go for... - We'll go for that, sorry.

0:34:30 > 0:34:32LAUGHTER

0:34:34 > 0:34:37Right, so we have Nancy Astor from Tom and Darren.

0:34:37 > 0:34:39Let's see if Nancy Astor is right for Nasty Acorn,

0:34:39 > 0:34:42and if it is, how many people said Nancy Astor.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46It's right.

0:34:51 > 0:34:52Wow!

0:34:54 > 0:34:57Very well done, Darren and Tom.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03Now, Natalie and Mark. Six is the score you have to beat.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06Betty Boothroyd, you are saying, for Tory Hot Body Bet.

0:35:06 > 0:35:10Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:35:12 > 0:35:14Yep, it's right.

0:35:15 > 0:35:18Six is what you have beat to win this question.

0:35:18 > 0:35:20Oh! 20.

0:35:20 > 0:35:22APPLAUSE

0:35:25 > 0:35:26There we are.

0:35:26 > 0:35:30After three questions, Tom and Darren are through to the final 2-1.

0:35:30 > 0:35:34- Richard.- Very well played, both teams, very well played throughout.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36There are two answers that would have won you the point actually.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39That Great Charmer wouldn't have, that is Margaret Thatcher,

0:35:39 > 0:35:41the first female Prime Minister.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44Nancy Astor, of course, the first female MP to sit in Parliament.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46Betty Boothroyd, the first female speaker.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49Quit Cash Jim is the first female Home Secretary.

0:35:50 > 0:35:54Jacqui Smith. Would have scored two.

0:35:54 > 0:35:57And To Creepy Vote is a pointless answer.

0:35:57 > 0:36:01The first female Chief Secretary To The Treasury, Yvette Cooper.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03Yvette Cooper would've scored you nothing at all.

0:36:03 > 0:36:06Very well done to anyone who got all five. Very impressive.

0:36:06 > 0:36:10Thank you very much. So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head

0:36:10 > 0:36:12is Natalie and Mark.

0:36:12 > 0:36:16Finally you come to the end of the road, but what a road it's been.

0:36:16 > 0:36:18So many twists and turns there.

0:36:18 > 0:36:21Natalie and Mark, thank you so much. I'm sorry we have to say goodbye,

0:36:21 > 0:36:23but you've been great contestants.

0:36:23 > 0:36:24APPLAUSE

0:36:28 > 0:36:32But for Tom and Darren, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:36:37 > 0:36:40Congratulations, Tom and Darren. You have fought off all the competition

0:36:40 > 0:36:44and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:36:48 > 0:36:49Very well done indeed.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:36:52 > 0:36:55And at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £3,250.

0:36:55 > 0:36:57CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:36:58 > 0:37:01Now, the rules are very simple.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.

0:37:04 > 0:37:06We've had one pointless answer in the show today.

0:37:06 > 0:37:08You only have to find one now,

0:37:08 > 0:37:12and you will leave here with that £3,250 jackpot. First, you've got to choose a category,

0:37:12 > 0:37:15and you can choose from these five options. We have...

0:37:22 > 0:37:24- Hmm.- What do you think?

0:37:24 > 0:37:25- Definitely not Literature.- No.

0:37:25 > 0:37:29- Well, England Footballers might be good.- No, no, no.

0:37:29 > 0:37:31Well, do you want to try for Eurovision Winners?

0:37:31 > 0:37:35Well, I'm relying on you basically to have a stab at it.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37I'm relying on you being obscure.

0:37:37 > 0:37:41Yeah, we'll go for Eurovision Winners. Yeah, I think we should.

0:37:41 > 0:37:45Very well done. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:37:45 > 0:37:47We give 100 people 100 seconds to name...

0:37:47 > 0:37:51as many Top 40 Hits By UK Eurovision Winners

0:37:51 > 0:37:52as they could.

0:37:52 > 0:37:56- Richard.- Yep, we're looking for the names of any UK top 40 singles

0:37:56 > 0:38:00by any UK act that has won the Eurovision Song Contest, please.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03We won't accept the songs with which they won the Song Contest.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05But any UK top 40 hit from a UK act that has won

0:38:05 > 0:38:08the Eurovision Song Contest. Very best of luck.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10OK, thank you very much.

0:38:10 > 0:38:12You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers,

0:38:12 > 0:38:15and all you need to win that £3,250,

0:38:15 > 0:38:18is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:38:18 > 0:38:20- Are you ready?- BOTH: Yeah.

0:38:20 > 0:38:23Let's put 60 seconds on the clock. There they are.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25Your time starts now.

0:38:25 > 0:38:28- Who do you think?- Brotherhood Of Man have had a few hits...- Right, OK.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31- Erm... Bucks Fizz.- Yeah. Lulu?

0:38:31 > 0:38:34- No, never won. Katrina And The Waves.- Dana?

0:38:34 > 0:38:39- No, they never won it as well. - What about Dana?- Er...

0:38:39 > 0:38:42- She represented Ireland.- Did she? - So we have Sandie Shaw.

0:38:42 > 0:38:46- Oh, yeah.- But I've got a couple of Brotherhood Of Man

0:38:46 > 0:38:49- and maybe a couple of Bucks Fizz. Definitely.- Yeah.

0:38:49 > 0:38:53- We'll maybe try those.- Yeah.- I've got a couple by Brotherhood Of Man.

0:38:53 > 0:38:55Figaro, Angelo, Oh Boy.

0:38:55 > 0:38:58Bucks Fizz - My Camera Never Lies, Land Of Make Believe.

0:39:01 > 0:39:05Sandie Shaw - There's Always Something There To Remind Me. Em...

0:39:05 > 0:39:08Katrina and the Waves - Walking On Sunshine,

0:39:08 > 0:39:11- Love Shine A Light. - 10 seconds left.

0:39:11 > 0:39:14OK. I'm happy enough to go with the Bucks Fizz

0:39:14 > 0:39:18- and a couple of Brotherhood Of Mans. OK?- Brotherhood Of Men?

0:39:18 > 0:39:21OK, there we are. Your time is up.

0:39:21 > 0:39:25We were looking for Top 40 Hits By UK Eurovision Winners.

0:39:25 > 0:39:27- I now need your three answers.- Um...

0:39:27 > 0:39:31I know that the Brotherhood Of Man won in 1976 with Save Your Kisses For Me,

0:39:31 > 0:39:33but I'm not going to use that as an answer.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35I'm going to go for a couple of their other hits.

0:39:35 > 0:39:39One was called Oh Boy, open brackets, The Mood I'm In, close brackets.

0:39:39 > 0:39:41I think, or thereabouts.

0:39:41 > 0:39:42Yeah.

0:39:42 > 0:39:47Um, and maybe we'll take Angelo as well, by the Brotherhood Of Man.

0:39:47 > 0:39:51Bucks Fizz, there's a whole host of Bucks Fizz ones we can choose from,

0:39:51 > 0:39:54but we'll go for a song called My Camera Never Lies.

0:39:54 > 0:39:58My camera never lies. So, we have Oh Boy (The Mood I'm In),

0:39:58 > 0:40:00Angelo...

0:40:01 > 0:40:03..and My Camera Never Lies.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08These are really quite embarrassingly good, aren't they?

0:40:08 > 0:40:09Of those three,

0:40:09 > 0:40:12which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:40:12 > 0:40:15I'd actually go for the Bucks Fizz one, My Camera Never Lies.

0:40:15 > 0:40:17My Camera Never Lies, we'll put that last.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19And which one should be put first?

0:40:19 > 0:40:21- Um... Angelo.- Angelo.

0:40:21 > 0:40:24Let's put them up on the board in that order. Here they are.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26We have got...Angelo,

0:40:26 > 0:40:28Oh Boy (The Mood I'm In)

0:40:28 > 0:40:30and My Camera Never Lies. There we are.

0:40:30 > 0:40:34We were looking for Top 40 Hits By UK Eurovision Winners.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37Angelo was your least confident shot at a pointless answer.

0:40:37 > 0:40:40You only have to find one pointless answer, remember, to win the jackpot.

0:40:40 > 0:40:43£3,250. OK, let's see, Angelo, is it right?

0:40:43 > 0:40:47And if it is, how many people said it? Angelo.

0:40:50 > 0:40:51It's right.

0:40:52 > 0:40:57OK. This was your first shot at that jackpot of £3,250.

0:40:57 > 0:41:00If this goes all the way down to zero, you have won the jackpot.

0:41:00 > 0:41:01Down it goes. Still going down.

0:41:01 > 0:41:03You've done it!

0:41:03 > 0:41:05APPLAUSE

0:41:05 > 0:41:10- Very, very well done.- Thank you. - Fantastic. Very well done.

0:41:10 > 0:41:11Wow.

0:41:13 > 0:41:14Wow.

0:41:18 > 0:41:21A pointless answer with your first submission.

0:41:21 > 0:41:24I didn't even have time to ask what you wanted to spend the money on.

0:41:24 > 0:41:28So, here's fun. What will you spend that money on, Darren?

0:41:28 > 0:41:31I think my wife wants me to buy new tools and some new golf clubs,

0:41:31 > 0:41:34but I'll probably use it towards a holiday. So, yeah.

0:41:34 > 0:41:36All happy with that. Brilliant.

0:41:36 > 0:41:39- I'm off to do some roller coaster in Orlando.- Are you?- Yeah.

0:41:39 > 0:41:41Fantastic.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43Well, congratulations. Angelo was a pointless answer.

0:41:43 > 0:41:47That means you go home with that jackpot of £3,250.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50- Very, very well done indeed. - APPLAUSE

0:41:53 > 0:41:56- Wow.- That's the thing about Pointless, isn't it?

0:41:56 > 0:41:59Darren's gone through life with obscure Brotherhood Of Man knowledge,

0:41:59 > 0:42:04with everybody saying, "You know you don't need that. You're never going to need that."

0:42:04 > 0:42:06And it's won him three and a bit thousand pounds.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09Oh Boy (The Mood I'm In), also a pointless answer.

0:42:09 > 0:42:12You were going to say Figaro by Brotherhood Of Man as well,

0:42:12 > 0:42:14which is also a pointless answer.

0:42:14 > 0:42:17Whereas My Camera Never Lies would have scored two points. Bucks Fizz.

0:42:17 > 0:42:22So you got two out of the three. Let's take a look at some other pointless answers.

0:42:22 > 0:42:25There's Angelo and Figaro by Brotherhood Of Man.

0:42:25 > 0:42:27If You Can't Stand The Heat by Bucks Fizz was a top 10 single,

0:42:27 > 0:42:29a pointless answer.

0:42:29 > 0:42:32I'm A Tiger, which is Lulu. Long Live Love, which is Sandie Shaw,

0:42:32 > 0:42:35also her version of The Smiths' Hand In Glove, that was a pointless answer.

0:42:35 > 0:42:40Lulu's version of David Bowie's The Man Who Sold The World, pointless.

0:42:40 > 0:42:42Monsieur Dupont, that's another Sandie Shaw,

0:42:42 > 0:42:44Sun Street, Katrina And The Waves,

0:42:44 > 0:42:47and just to finish us off on the Brotherhood Of Man theme, United We Stand,

0:42:47 > 0:42:49another one of those. Very well played.

0:42:49 > 0:42:53- We love Brotherhood Of Man.- Thanks once again to our winning players,

0:42:53 > 0:42:56Tom and Darren, who go away with today's jackpot of £3,250.

0:43:00 > 0:43:04Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:06 > 0:43:09And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
