0:00:20 > 0:00:22CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:00:25 > 0:00:28Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:28 > 0:00:32the quiz show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:38 > 0:00:42Welcome back, Dan A and Dan S. You were on the show last time.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46This is your second and final chance.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Dan A, remind us how you know each other.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51From university. We were next-door neighbours in our first year.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Very good. Dan, what happened last time?
0:00:53 > 0:00:57We got kind of unstuck on books which were made into musicals and the authors of them.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59It was quite a tricky round, we thought.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Dan S, what do you hope is going to come up today?
0:01:01 > 0:01:04- Maybe cartoons this time.- Cartoons? - That'd be good.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Now, Dan A, we discovered last time
0:01:06 > 0:01:09- you are vice captain of your college rugby team.- Yeah.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13- You have an improvisational comedy troupe.- Yeah.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16Give us something else from the deep well of Dan A.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Well, I was born in Hong Kong.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- You didn't tell us THAT last time! - No!- OK, south-east Asia.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25- Something new for this time! - OK, you kept quite a lot back there.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Dan S, what are you hoping is not going to come up today?
0:01:28 > 0:01:29Again, sports.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31Though US geography came up last time,
0:01:31 > 0:01:34so shouldn't come up again, thankfully!
0:01:34 > 0:01:37OK. Well, it's great to have you back on the show.
0:01:37 > 0:01:38You were second round last time.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41This time, surely, surely, head-to-head!
0:01:41 > 0:01:45- All the way!- All the way to the final? So says Dan A.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47Right, very, very best of luck. We'll take you up on that.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51Next, we welcome Richard and Gail. Now, how do you two know each other, Richard?
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Gail's my wife. 26 years we've been married.
0:01:54 > 0:01:55We met at a bus stop.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59She felt sorry for me with my little carrier bag and my sandwiches in it.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03- And she's not been sorry for me ever since, have you?- Well, nearly!
0:02:03 > 0:02:06We used to work for the same factory office.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09And we didn't know each other at the time,
0:02:09 > 0:02:12but then we met at the bus stop and I used to feel really sorry for him,
0:02:12 > 0:02:15with his little white plastic bag!
0:02:15 > 0:02:17- She thought I was a down-and-out! - I did actually!
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Ahh! Richard!
0:02:18 > 0:02:21OK. So, what would you like to see come up today?
0:02:21 > 0:02:22Musicals and sports.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Musicals and sports. Richard, what would be great for you today?
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Well, I like cricket, cycling and perhaps Morrissey. Something of Morrissey.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30- Oh, really?- Yeah. - Big Morrissey fan?- Yeah.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Anything in particular you'd not like to see come up?
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Films. Anything other than what was on the Saturday morning pictures, I'm struggling.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- OK.- Will catch an early taxi home!
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Excellent. Good for you. It's great to have you on the show.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Welcome to Pointless, Richard and Gail.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47And next, we welcome Paul and John. How do you two know each other, Paul?
0:02:47 > 0:02:49We played football together for about ten years
0:02:49 > 0:02:51and we now live together.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53- And where's that, John?- In Leeds.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55John, what do you do?
0:02:55 > 0:02:58I install fireplaces and solid fuel fires.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Excellent. And Paul, you?
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Civil servant, working for Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06My favourite department of the civil service(!)
0:03:06 > 0:03:09That's nice. Well, welcome. Welcome!
0:03:09 > 0:03:12Well, do you want to sit down at all? Do you want a snack?
0:03:12 > 0:03:14A cup of tea would be nice, please.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Yeah, maybe get a bit of a slice of sponge for you.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18Nice beard he's got as well. A very handsome man!
0:03:18 > 0:03:22- Yes!- Very interesting beard. - Well-groomed. - Yeah, really well-groomed!
0:03:22 > 0:03:26Well-dressed, looking good, man's man. The kind of man you wouldn't catch at a bus stop
0:03:26 > 0:03:28with a carrier bag full of sandwiches.
0:03:28 > 0:03:29LAUGHTER
0:03:29 > 0:03:31I have been there!
0:03:31 > 0:03:34Paul, what do you like to get up to when you're not
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Revenuing the Inland?
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Read plenty of books, fantasy novels, a lot of fantasy.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41John, do you have an ideal Pointless category?
0:03:41 > 0:03:43When we can confer, Lord of the Rings.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45LAUGHTER
0:03:45 > 0:03:48But for me, football, Leeds United, anything like that'd suffice.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51Paul and John, welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- Enjoy it. Best of luck. - BOTH: Thank you.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56And finally, we welcome back Judy and Claire.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00You were also on the show last time. Judy, remind us how you know each other.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04Friends from way back, school days, secondary school.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07- Remind us how far you got last time. - We got to the head-to-head.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09You did well! You covered yourselves in glory.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Judy, remind us, what do you do?
0:04:11 > 0:04:12I'm a cook...
0:04:12 > 0:04:14a homoeopath...
0:04:14 > 0:04:15a mother.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18A mother... That's enough! Sorry!
0:04:18 > 0:04:20Claire, what do you do?
0:04:20 > 0:04:22I'm a behavioural specialist teacher,
0:04:22 > 0:04:26but I also am a qualified aromatherapist, which I didn't mention before.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- You neglected to mention THAT last time!- I did!
0:04:29 > 0:04:32You're both from Wales, Mumbles, we discovered last time.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Judy, what are you hoping's going to come up today?
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Maybe food, plants, medicinal herbs.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Very good! Well, listen. You made it through to the head-to-head last time.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45Please, head-to-head this time and maybe final. Let's hope.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Best of luck. Nice to have you back on the show.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49We'll find out more about you throughout the show.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51There's only one person left for me to introduce.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53He's just been cleared of tax fraud.
0:04:53 > 0:04:54LAUGHTER
0:04:54 > 0:04:57- It's my Pointless friend. It's Richard!- Hiya.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58Hello.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:05:06 > 0:05:08- That's not true, of course. - It's not, no.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11No, I was convicted. How are you? Are you well?
0:05:11 > 0:05:12- Yeah, I'm very well.- Excellent.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14I think it's going to be a cracker today.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16We've got two returning pairs, but both very strong.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19The Dans, double Dan, and Judy and Claire both did very well last time.
0:05:19 > 0:05:24Judy and Claire especially in the head-to-head. It's going to be tough going for our two new pairs.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Fortunately, Paul and John have Paul on their team, which is, I mean...
0:05:27 > 0:05:29He am da man!
0:05:29 > 0:05:32I know we're joking about, but he actually is.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Like a lot of those Revenue people!
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Looking forward to you getting the jackpot, my friend.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38LAUGHTER
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- Richly deserved. Tax-free as well! - I was going to ask you that.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44- We don't tell no-one.- Yeah! Listen, Paul.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47- I'm not going to say anything, you win that.- It's just between us.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51And, of course, our other new pair, Richard and Gail. Now, round one is going to be very interesting
0:05:51 > 0:05:55for Richard particularly cos Richard likes sports but hates films.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56Looking forward to that! Thanks.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59All our questions were put to 100 people before the show,
0:05:59 > 0:06:01but we're looking for the obscure answers they didn't get.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04To stay in and have a chance of winning our jackpot,
0:06:04 > 0:06:07all our players need to do is score as few points as they possibly can.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10Now, what everyone's trying to do, of course, is to find a pointless answer.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12That's an answer that none of our 100 people gave.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16And each time that happens, we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Nobody won the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22So, today's jackpot starts off...
0:06:22 > 0:06:23at £8,500.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25APPLAUSE
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Now, in this first round, each of you must give me one answer,
0:06:40 > 0:06:42and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45The pair with the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47If you give me an incorrect answer,
0:06:47 > 0:06:50you'll score the maximum of 100 points.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52So, try and avoid those if you can.
0:06:52 > 0:06:53OK, our first category today is...
0:06:56 > 0:06:57GROANS AND LAUGHTER
0:06:57 > 0:07:02Film. Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11OK, and our question concerns...
0:07:11 > 0:07:14sports films.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17- LAUGHTER - And their sports.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Sports films and their sports. Richard?
0:07:20 > 0:07:23- Yes, what do you think, Richard? - Called a cab.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26Yes, on each pass we'll give you the name of seven films
0:07:26 > 0:07:28and the years in which they were released.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31You have to tell us on which sports are these films based, please.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33An obscure answer scores fewer points,
0:07:33 > 0:07:36an incorrect answer will score you 100 points.
0:07:36 > 0:07:4014 films in all, which sport are they all mainly based on?
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Thanks very much, Richard.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Dan A and Dan S, you all drew lots before the show
0:07:45 > 0:07:47and today, you are going first.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50We're looking for the main sports featured in these sports films.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52And we have got...
0:08:08 > 0:08:10I'll read those again.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25I think there are a few obvious ones on there,
0:08:25 > 0:08:28so hopefully this is going to be a less obvious one.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31I think I'm going to go for Blades of Glory,
0:08:31 > 0:08:33for ice-skating, or figure skating?
0:08:33 > 0:08:37Blades of Glory for figure skating, you are saying.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Blades of Glory, figure skating, says Dan A.
0:08:39 > 0:08:45Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how money people knew that. Figure skating.
0:08:45 > 0:08:46It's right.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51- 34. - APPLAUSE
0:08:53 > 0:08:5534, not a bad score.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Richard.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Well done, Dan. With Will Ferrell.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02- It's funny, actually. Have you seen it?- No.
0:09:02 > 0:09:06Like most Will Ferrell films, you think, this will be terrible, and it's very good.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09- It's actually great.- Yes.- Brilliant. Now then, Gail.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Yes, call the cab, I think.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15I think I will go for A League Of Their Own.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19I think Madonna was in it, I can't remember.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21It must have been a good film(!)
0:09:21 > 0:09:22Is it basketball?
0:09:24 > 0:09:26A League Of Their Own, basketball,
0:09:26 > 0:09:29says Gail. Basketball for A League Of Their Own.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Is it right? How many people knew that answer if it is?
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Ooh! Bad luck, Gail.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39That scores you 100 points, I'm sorry.
0:09:39 > 0:09:44OK, John, we're looking for the main sports featured in these films.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Is that a good category for you?
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Yes, I'm happy. I'm very happy.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52I'm going to go for League Of Their Own as well
0:09:52 > 0:09:53and I think it's baseball.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57Baseball, says John, for A League Of Their Own. Let's see if that's right
0:09:57 > 0:10:00and if it is, let's see how many people said baseball.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02That's more like it.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06- 41. - APPLAUSE
0:10:08 > 0:10:0941.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15Absolutely right. It's about the formation of the all-American girls'
0:10:15 > 0:10:18professional baseball league during the Second World War.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21And Madonna is in it, you're right, Gail. And Tom Hanks, Geena Davis.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25- Quite a good film.- Quite a good film? - Despite Madonna being in it.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27- LAUGHTER - Now then, Judy,
0:10:27 > 0:10:30we are looking for the main sports featured in these films
0:10:30 > 0:10:33and you are the last person to have this board,
0:10:33 > 0:10:36so you can do your thinking out loud if you like.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38It's not great. Um...
0:10:38 > 0:10:42I knew Blades of Glory. Wimbledon, obvious.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Friday Night Lights, no idea.
0:10:45 > 0:10:46Blackball could be snooker,
0:10:46 > 0:10:52or it could be one of those funny American games, like pool or something.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54- GENTLE LAUGHTER - Is that..? Oh.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58Calcium Kid, I've heard of, but I keep thinking of the Milky Bar kid...
0:10:58 > 0:11:02And I don't think shooting, shooting is a sport,
0:11:02 > 0:11:05but I don't think, with 11-year-olds...
0:11:05 > 0:11:07LAUGHTER
0:11:07 > 0:11:10When I said "do your thinking out loud", I guess...
0:11:10 > 0:11:11LAUGHTER
0:11:13 > 0:11:16So that leaves me with Men With Brooms.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18I'm going to go curling, Men With Brooms.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Men With Brooms, curling, says Judy.
0:11:20 > 0:11:24Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people knew that answer, curling.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27It's absolutely right, Judy, very well done.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31ALEXANDER LAUGHS
0:11:31 > 0:11:3216!
0:11:32 > 0:11:35APPLAUSE
0:11:35 > 0:11:38There you are. 16.
0:11:38 > 0:11:43As so often happens, when you're forced into a position,
0:11:43 > 0:11:46usually at the end of the line, you do end up making quite a good guess.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49Absolutely right. It's about a Canadian curling team.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Leslie Nielsen is in it, amongst others.
0:11:51 > 0:11:5316, very good score. Let's go through the rest.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Everyone did well to avoid Wimbledon.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58Other than Gail, it would have been a better answer for you.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01It scores 91 points.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Let's take a look at the rest. The Calcium Kid
0:12:04 > 0:12:07is an Orlando Bloom movie from 2004 about boxing.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09- What happened to Orlando? - What happened to him?
0:12:09 > 0:12:12He became one of the biggest grossing movie stars on the planet.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14Oh, yes.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Friday Night Lights? Do you know it?
0:12:16 > 0:12:19Darts? I've no idea.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21It's not, it's American football.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23There's an American TV series about it as well.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25It's based on a book called Friday Night Lights,
0:12:25 > 0:12:29which, if you like sport or America, is a brilliant book you should get hold of.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32Right. Brilliant. Blackball, do you know that?
0:12:32 > 0:12:34- With Paul Kaye.- I would say...
0:12:34 > 0:12:37- Playing the bad boy. - Oh, Paul Kaye! It's bowls.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40It is. Bowls. Absolutely right, would've scored one point,
0:12:40 > 0:12:42so well done if you said that.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Thank you. We're halfway through the round,
0:12:44 > 0:12:46let's take a look at those scores.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Judy, 16. Great answer, great score.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52Then we come up from 16 to 34, where we find the Dans,
0:12:52 > 0:12:56then up to 41, where we find John and Paul.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00And then quite a hike up to 100, where we find Gail and Richard.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04Richard, if you can possibly find a low scoring answer,
0:13:04 > 0:13:05you should seize it with both hands
0:13:05 > 0:13:08and hope it's enough to get through to the second round.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Best of luck. We're going to come back down the line.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Can the second players take their places at the podium.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18OK, we're going to put seven more sports films on the board
0:13:18 > 0:13:20and here we have got...
0:13:36 > 0:13:38I'll read those one last time...
0:13:49 > 0:13:53Remember, we're looking for the main sports featured in these films.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56You're trying to find the one the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Claire, Judy's left you in a strong position.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02And also, so have Richard and Gail.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05They are on 100, you're on 16, which means if you can score 83 or less,
0:14:05 > 0:14:1183 or less, you are definitely in the second round.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13This is a tricky one for me, unfortunately.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16I could have a good guess, at one of the obvious ones there,
0:14:16 > 0:14:19but I'm going to have a stab at Tin Cup,
0:14:19 > 0:14:22which I think is baseball.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Tin Cup, baseball, says Claire.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Tin Cup, baseball. Here is your red line.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30Get below that line, you're in the next round for sure.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34Tin Cup, baseball. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Ooh, bad luck, Claire.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39That's an incorrect answer, I'm afraid, which scores you 100 points,
0:14:39 > 0:14:41takes your total up to 116.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45However, the round is not yet over. Anything could still happen.
0:14:45 > 0:14:50Paul, the high scorers are Claire and Judy on 116, you're on 41.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53So a score of 74 or less,
0:14:53 > 0:14:56- you're through to the next round. - I think I know a couple on there.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Hopefully Tin Cup will get us through,
0:14:59 > 0:15:01so I'll go for that one again and say golf.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04Tin cup, golf, says Paul.
0:15:04 > 0:15:08Let's if that's right and if it is how many of our 100 people said Tin Cup, golf.
0:15:08 > 0:15:09There's your red line.
0:15:11 > 0:15:12Absolutely right.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Yes, you're through.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Good answer, 26.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22- APPLAUSE - Takes your total up to 67.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24- Richard.- Well played, Paul.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28Kevin Costner, who plays a faded golf pro,
0:15:28 > 0:15:31who attempts to qualify for the US Open to steal his rival's girlfriend.
0:15:31 > 0:15:36Richard, we are looking for sports prominently featured in these film.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38You're not the high scorers at the moment.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41The high scorers are Claire and Judy on 116.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44You're on 100, so if you can score 15 or less, Richard,
0:15:44 > 0:15:46you are through to the next round.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49I don't know whether to take a guess, an educated guess,
0:15:49 > 0:15:51or go halfway ground.
0:15:51 > 0:15:55I think I'll go halfway ground. Secretariat, horse racing.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57Secretariat, horse racing, says Richard.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Secretariat, horse racing.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Is that right? How many people said it?
0:16:01 > 0:16:03There's your red line, quite low.
0:16:03 > 0:16:10Let's see how many of our 100 people knew Secretariat was horse racing.
0:16:10 > 0:16:11It's right.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18Oh, you've done it! Seven.
0:16:18 > 0:16:23- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Very well done indeed, Richard.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Seven for Secretariat, takes your total up to 107.
0:16:25 > 0:16:29You are through to the next round, Richard.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Very well played. With Diane Lane and John Malkovich.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35Secretariat being one of the most famous racehorses in US history.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Now then, Dan S, the high scorers on 116 are Claire and Judy,
0:16:39 > 0:16:44you're on 34, which means 81 or less, through you go.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46What's that board looking like behind me?
0:16:46 > 0:16:50I've got a feeling Goal, probably going to be football,
0:16:50 > 0:16:52but might not be 81.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54The others, I've no idea.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56The Champ sounds like boxing.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00I'd kick myself if Goal was less than 81,
0:17:00 > 0:17:01but I don't see it happening.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05So I'm going to go for The Champ and boxing.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07The Champ, boxing.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11There's your red line, Dan S. Tantalisingly high.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13You've got to be right with The Champ, boxing.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15Is it about boxing and if it is, how many people said it?
0:17:15 > 0:17:17The Champ, boxing.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19That's right and you're through. Very well done, Dan S.
0:17:19 > 0:17:23- 60. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:17:25 > 0:17:2860 takes your total up to 94. Well played. Richard.
0:17:28 > 0:17:32Well played. Funnily enough, Goal would've seen you through as well,
0:17:32 > 0:17:35because it only scored 65 points. Quite right, it's football, but 65.
0:17:35 > 0:17:39Of those others, Like Mike is about basketball.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41It's essentially a pair of magic sneakers,
0:17:41 > 0:17:43would've scored three points.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45Miracle is the story of the US ice hockey team
0:17:45 > 0:17:48when they beat Russia in the 1980 Winter Olympics.
0:17:48 > 0:17:49Would have scored you one point
0:17:49 > 0:17:53and Wondrous Oblivion, even for Pointless, is an obscure answer.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55- Any idea at all?- I don't know.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59It's pointless, it's a cricket film. Cricket film.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02Well done if you got that, particularly well done.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05Thanks, Richard, so at the end of the first round,
0:18:05 > 0:18:08the losing pair with the highest score, Claire and Judy. Claire and Judy,
0:18:08 > 0:18:10and THAT with Men With Brooms.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13A cracking answer, the lowest score in the first pass.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15We have to say goodbye to you.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18It's great having you on the show, thank you so much for playing.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21- Thank you.- Bye. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:18:21 > 0:18:24But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34Obviously there's only room for two pairs in our head-to-head
0:18:34 > 0:18:38so one of the teams in front of me will be leaving us at the end of this round.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Our category for round two is...
0:18:40 > 0:18:42the UK charts.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44The UK charts.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Let's find out what the question is, here it comes.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:18:57 > 0:19:01to name as many acts who had a UK number one album in 2011.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05We're looking for the name of any of the 23 groups or solo artists
0:19:05 > 0:19:08who had a UK number one album in 2011. Very best of luck.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12Thanks very much, Richard. Now then, Dan S.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16I might go for the fairly obvious one and say Adele.
0:19:16 > 0:19:20The little-known Adele, says Dan S.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24Let's if that's right and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Adele.
0:19:25 > 0:19:26Well, it's right.
0:19:28 > 0:19:2952.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31APPLAUSE
0:19:33 > 0:19:3552 for Adele.
0:19:35 > 0:19:40She broke every record in the book in 2011 in single and albums charts.
0:19:40 > 0:19:41Gail?
0:19:41 > 0:19:46This is a bit of a toughie for me, but I can think of, um,
0:19:46 > 0:19:49and this is going to be really popular, Amy Winehouse.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52Clever. Amy Winehouse.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Let's see if that's a correct answer
0:19:54 > 0:19:59and if it is, let's see how many people said Amy Winehouse.
0:19:59 > 0:20:00It's right.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Eight.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09APPLAUSE
0:20:11 > 0:20:15Once again, a cracking answer from the Gail and Richard team.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Amy Winehouse, Richard.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Well played, Gail. She had two number one albums in 2011.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23Back To Black for the third time and Lioness Hidden Treasures,
0:20:23 > 0:20:25- the posthumous album, also number one.- John?
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Not good on charts in 2011.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31I'm going to take a risk,
0:20:31 > 0:20:34I'm sure they had an album out last year, and I'm sure if it did,
0:20:34 > 0:20:36it will have gone to number one.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40I'm going to say Arctic Monkeys.
0:20:40 > 0:20:41Arctic Monkeys, says John.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Let's see if the Arctic Monkeys is correct and if it is,
0:20:44 > 0:20:47how many of our 100 people said it.
0:20:47 > 0:20:48It's right.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Very well done indeed, John!
0:20:56 > 0:20:58CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:20:58 > 0:21:01That's the green of the pointless answer.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05It adds 250 quid to today's jackpot, takes the total to 8,750.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09It also scores you nothing. Brilliant.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Very well played. Their fourth album, Suck It And See,
0:21:12 > 0:21:15went to number one last year, as did all their previous albums.
0:21:15 > 0:21:20We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24John and Paul, nothing. You scored nothing. That's brilliant.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Then up to eight, where we find Gail and Richard,
0:21:26 > 0:21:30then up to 52, where we find Dan and Dan, so Dan A,
0:21:30 > 0:21:34you've got to hope somebody gets a massive score and you have an obscure answer
0:21:34 > 0:21:37that's going to score you, ideally, nothing.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39We'll come back down the line.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42Can the second players please take their places at the podium.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48We are looking for artists who had a UK number one album in 2011.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Paul, the high scorers on 52 are the Dans.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54If you can score 51 or less with your answer,
0:21:54 > 0:21:56you're through to the next round.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59I've got two answers. It's not a great category.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01One is a shot in the dark, like John's.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04The other is probably more popular.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07I think I might go for the more popular one.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10If it were out last year, I'll say Rihanna.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11Rihanna, says Paul. Rihanna.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15Let's see if it's right and if it is, how many people said Rihanna?
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Here's your red line, get below that,
0:22:17 > 0:22:20you are definitely in the head-to-head. Rihanna.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21It's right.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25You are in the head-to-head.
0:22:25 > 0:22:2630.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:22:28 > 0:22:3030 for Rihanna, takes your total up to 30.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Well played. She had two number-one albums as well,
0:22:35 > 0:22:39- she had Loud and Talk That Talk. - OK. Now then, Richard,
0:22:39 > 0:22:42we're looking for artists with a UK number one album in 2011.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45I'm going to go for Coldplay with my fingers crossed.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Coldplay, that's a great name for an album!
0:22:48 > 0:22:50LAUGHTER
0:22:50 > 0:22:51You're on eight, Richard.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54You're on eight thanks to Gail's brilliant answer in the first pass.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57The high scorers are the Dans on 52,
0:22:57 > 0:22:59so if you score 43 or less with Coldplay,
0:22:59 > 0:23:02you are through to the head-to-head for sure.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04There's your red line, that's what 43 looks like.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Coldplay, says Richard.
0:23:07 > 0:23:08It's right.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13And you are in the head-to-head. Very well done indeed.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Look at that, 13.
0:23:15 > 0:23:16APPLAUSE
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Takes your total up to 21.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23Very good indeed. Richard.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26That's a good low scoring answer, very well done.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27Now then, the Dans,
0:23:27 > 0:23:30I have terrible news for you.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Adele has made so many people's years better,
0:23:33 > 0:23:35apart from yours.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38I know. Well, I can't say much better,
0:23:38 > 0:23:43but I want to give something back to the groups on the show,
0:23:43 > 0:23:45so I'm going to go for an obscure one hopefully.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47One that may have got one.
0:23:47 > 0:23:51I quite like her as an artist, so I'm going to go for Kelly Rowland.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Dan A is saying Kelly Rowland.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55Let's see if it's right, and how many people said it.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58No red line for you, I'm afraid, as you're already the high scorers.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Bad luck, bad luck, Dan A.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05An incorrect answer, which scores you 100 points,
0:24:05 > 0:24:10takes your total up to a majestic 152. Richard.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12At least you tried to get a pointless answer for everybody else.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Her album, Here I Am, got to 43,
0:24:14 > 0:24:17those giddy heights. Let's look at some of the pointless answers.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21Only five pointless answers here. We've heard one of them, the Arctic Monkeys.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Example had a number one album with Playing In The Shadows,
0:24:24 > 0:24:28Kasabian's album, Velociraptor!, that was a pointless answer.
0:24:28 > 0:24:32Nero, the British dubstep band, had a number one album last year,
0:24:32 > 0:24:34as did the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38Some low scorers, James Morrison, Florence and the Machine, Foo Fighters, Steps,
0:24:38 > 0:24:40had a number one album last year.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44- Why weren't we informed? - Number one?!- Yes,
0:24:44 > 0:24:47it was a greatest hits compilation.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51- Their second greatest hits compilation.- Wow. Good for them.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Exactly. Will Young, Susan Boyle, Ed Sheeran. Michael Buble,
0:24:53 > 0:24:56his Christmas album, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds,
0:24:56 > 0:25:00all fairly low scorers, those ones. Let's take a look at the top answers,
0:25:00 > 0:25:01the ones most of our 100 people said,
0:25:01 > 0:25:04the worst answers you could've given. Take That, with 24.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08Rihanna with 30 and we've already seen the top answer as well,
0:25:08 > 0:25:09which is Adele, with 52.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of round two,
0:25:12 > 0:25:14the losing pair with the highest score,
0:25:14 > 0:25:15it's the Dans.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Dear oh dear. Adele.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20- Quite well known.- Yes.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23You were round two last time, round two this time. What a shame.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25It's been great having you on the show, Dan and Dan.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Thanks for playing. Sorry to say goodbye now.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:25:29 > 0:25:32But for the remaining two pairs, things are about to get
0:25:32 > 0:25:35even more exciting now, as we enter the head-to-head.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Well, congratulations, Paul and John, Richard and Gail.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48You are now only one round away from the final
0:25:48 > 0:25:52and a chance to play for the jackpot, currently at £8,750.
0:25:52 > 0:25:53CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Obviously only one pair can play for that money
0:25:58 > 0:25:59and to decide which pair it's going to be,
0:25:59 > 0:26:02you are now going to go head-to-head on the best of three questions.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05What that means is the first pair to win two questions
0:26:05 > 0:26:09will be playing for the jackpot and you are now allowed to confer.
0:26:09 > 0:26:10Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12APPLAUSE
0:26:17 > 0:26:20Here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Commonwealth flags.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25- Richard.- We're going to show you five flags now
0:26:25 > 0:26:29belonging to Commonwealth nations. You have to identify the most obscure. Very best of luck.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32OK, thanks, Richard. Let's reveal our five Commonwealth flags
0:26:32 > 0:26:34and here they are. We have got...
0:26:47 > 0:26:49So there we are.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52Five Commonwealth flags. Paul and John,
0:26:52 > 0:26:55you've played best throughout the show so far, so you get to go first.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Right.
0:26:58 > 0:27:02- OK?- Yes, not great for us, but we're going to go for D.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04Er, South Africa?
0:27:04 > 0:27:06D, South Africa, you are saying.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08Paul and John are saying D, South Africa.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Richard and Gail, you can do your thinking out loud if you like.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14- Well, um...- Talk us through the board if you like.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17I think A is Canada. I think C's Jamaica,
0:27:17 > 0:27:19not sure on E.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21We think that's Malaysia, don't we?
0:27:21 > 0:27:24We think it may be Malaysia, but we're going to go for B,
0:27:24 > 0:27:27- which we hope is...- Sri Lanka. - Sri Lanka.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31- B, you are saying Sri Lanka.- Yes.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34So we have, Paul and John are saying D, South Africa.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:27:37 > 0:27:40let's see how many of our 100 people said D was South Africa.
0:27:40 > 0:27:41Yes, of course.
0:27:44 > 0:27:4641.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:27:51 > 0:27:5241 for South Africa.
0:27:52 > 0:27:57Richard and Gail are saying B is Sri Lanka.
0:27:57 > 0:27:58B, Sri Lanka.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00Let's put it to the test.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04Is it right? B, Sri Lanka. How many people said it?
0:28:04 > 0:28:05Absolutely right.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Yes, you've done it.
0:28:10 > 0:28:1214.
0:28:12 > 0:28:13APPLAUSE
0:28:16 > 0:28:19That's a great answer, Richard and Gail, and it earns you the point.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22After one question, you are ahead 1-0. Richard.
0:28:22 > 0:28:25Well played, and you took us through the rest of the board fairly successfully as well.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27Let's take a look at the scores.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29A absolutely is Canada. What do you reckon that would score?
0:28:29 > 0:28:31That's going to be in the high 90s.
0:28:31 > 0:28:32Yes, 96. B, Sri Lanka.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35C, absolutely right, Jamaica.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37Would've been a good answer, would've scored 28 points.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40Actually, the best answer on the board is E.
0:28:40 > 0:28:41You're right, it is Malaysia,
0:28:41 > 0:28:43and that would score you four points,
0:28:43 > 0:28:46so very well done if, like Richard and Gail, you got all those at home.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49Thank very much, Richard.
0:28:49 > 0:28:51OK, here comes your second question. Paul and John,
0:28:51 > 0:28:54you need to win this question to stay in the game.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57Good luck. Here it comes. It concerns...
0:28:57 > 0:28:59Booker Prize-winning novels.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01Yes, we're going to show you five authors
0:29:01 > 0:29:04and the initials of their Booker Prize-winning novel.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06Can you name the novels, please?
0:29:06 > 0:29:10So, let's reveal the five Booker Prize-winning novels
0:29:10 > 0:29:12in initial form.
0:29:12 > 0:29:13And here we have...
0:29:27 > 0:29:29So there you are.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32Five Booker Prize-winning authors,
0:29:32 > 0:29:35with the initials of the books with which they won their prize.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38Richard and Gail, this time you go first.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40- What were you going to say? - You go, go on.
0:29:40 > 0:29:45We'll go for Kazuo Ishiguro, The Remains Of The Day.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48The Remains Of The Day, you are saying. Kazuo Ishiguro.
0:29:48 > 0:29:52Paul and John, you can take us through the board,
0:29:52 > 0:29:54do your thinking out loud.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56Salman Rushdie is Midnight's Children.
0:29:56 > 0:29:58I think Hilary Mantel is Wolf Hall.
0:29:58 > 0:30:04I'm not sure about the Roddy Doyle novel, or Yann Martel.
0:30:04 > 0:30:07So, the lowest score of the two we know is,
0:30:07 > 0:30:09if it's right, Hilary Mantel and Wolf Hall.
0:30:09 > 0:30:13You're going to say Hilary Mantel, Wolf Hall.
0:30:13 > 0:30:17So we have The Remains Of The Day, and we have Wolf Hall.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20Richard and Gail, The Remains Of The Day. Let's see if that's right
0:30:20 > 0:30:22and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:30:23 > 0:30:24Absolutely right.
0:30:29 > 0:30:30Down it goes, look at that. 11.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32APPLAUSE
0:30:34 > 0:30:36Very well done, Richard and Gail.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39Now then, Paul and John,
0:30:39 > 0:30:43this is the question you have to win if you're going to stay in the game.
0:30:43 > 0:30:45You're saying Hilary Mantel, Wolf Hall.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:30:47 > 0:30:51let's see how many people said it. Wolf Hall.
0:30:51 > 0:30:52It's right.
0:30:55 > 0:30:5611 is what it has to beat.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00Oh, you've done it. Wow, very well done indeed.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02APPLAUSE
0:31:05 > 0:31:07Very well done.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10That means after two questions, you are 1-1. Richard.
0:31:10 > 0:31:11Nicely played. Good head-to-head.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15If you'd said the other one you knew, Salman Rushdie's Midnight's Children,
0:31:15 > 0:31:18you would've been knocked out as well, because it scored 12 points.
0:31:18 > 0:31:21Roddy Doyle is Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24That would've scored ten. Do you know the Yann Martell one?
0:31:24 > 0:31:25- Life Of Pi.- Life Of Pi.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28Absolutely right, the best answer on the board with eight points.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31OK, here is your third question.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34This is the decider. It concerns...
0:31:36 > 0:31:38..the Swinging Sixties.
0:31:38 > 0:31:39- GENTLE LAUGHTER - The Swinging Sixties.
0:31:39 > 0:31:43- This plays into your hands, Paul and John, doesn't it?- Can't wait.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45LAUGHTER
0:31:45 > 0:31:48- Yes, warning, Arctic Monkeys may not be an answer in this one.- Yes.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50We're going to show you five questions
0:31:50 > 0:31:52about the decade known as the Swinging Sixties.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55- Can you give the answer to the most obscure?- Thanks very much.
0:31:55 > 0:31:58Let's reveal our five clues to facts about the Swinging Sixties
0:31:58 > 0:32:00and we have...
0:32:20 > 0:32:22I'll read those one last time...
0:32:41 > 0:32:45Paul and John, you go first again this time.
0:32:45 > 0:32:47We haven't got a clue.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49We think we might know the second one down,
0:32:49 > 0:32:51but we think it will be pretty high.
0:32:51 > 0:32:54We're going to have another stab and say the US magazine
0:32:54 > 0:32:56and say Time magazine.
0:32:56 > 0:33:00You're going to say Time magazine. Time magazine.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03Richard and Gail?
0:33:03 > 0:33:06- Go for the one you said.- We were thinking of Lady Chatterley's Lover
0:33:06 > 0:33:10for the novel in 1960, or Jean Shrimpton for The Shrimp.
0:33:10 > 0:33:14- That's for The Shrimp. Go for the novel. Go on.- Yes?- Yes.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16OK. OK, we'll go for Lady Chatterley's Lover.
0:33:16 > 0:33:18Lady Chatterley's Lover,
0:33:18 > 0:33:22the novel involved in a high-profile obscene publications trial in 1960.
0:33:22 > 0:33:23OK, Lady Chatterley's Lover.
0:33:23 > 0:33:27In the order they were given though, Paul and John said Time magazine
0:33:27 > 0:33:30was the one that dubbed London the Swinging City.
0:33:30 > 0:33:34Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's how many people said Time magazine.
0:33:34 > 0:33:35It's right.
0:33:37 > 0:33:38It's right.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Wow, six.
0:33:42 > 0:33:43CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:33:50 > 0:33:52Six, that scores.
0:33:52 > 0:33:56Richard and Gail have said Lady Chatterley's Lover
0:33:56 > 0:33:59is the novel involved in the obscene publications trial in 1960.
0:33:59 > 0:34:03Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:34:03 > 0:34:05Absolutely right.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08But will it beat six? This is the decider.
0:34:08 > 0:34:11- Ooh, 23! - APPLAUSE
0:34:13 > 0:34:15Very, very well done, Paul and John.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17If that was a guess, it was a very good one,
0:34:17 > 0:34:20because it means after three questions,
0:34:20 > 0:34:23you are through to the final 2-1. Richard.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Very well played. Was that your call, John?
0:34:25 > 0:34:27- Yes.- Time magazine? - I'm sure it was probably Paul.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29LAUGHTER
0:34:29 > 0:34:31Nothing could have beaten Time magazine,
0:34:31 > 0:34:33so there's nothing you could have done. The model,
0:34:33 > 0:34:35The Shrimp was Jean Shrimpton.
0:34:35 > 0:34:40Would've scored 16 points, better answer than Lady Chatterley's Lover, but wouldn't have won you the point.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43- UK Prime Minister for the majority of the '60s?- Harold Wilson.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Absolutely right, from '64 to '70.
0:34:45 > 0:34:47Would have only scored 11 points though.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50And the act that had the most number one UK singles?
0:34:50 > 0:34:54- The Beatles.- Absolutely right and that would've scored 59 points.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56Terrific head-to-head, both teams there.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59Absolutely. So, the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head,
0:34:59 > 0:35:01I'm afraid it's Richard and Gail.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03You've played so well, though, throughout the show.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05Nothing wrong at all with any of your answers.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07Who would have known that Wolf Hall
0:35:07 > 0:35:09would whip that away from under your noses?
0:35:09 > 0:35:12I'm afraid we say goodbye to you, Richard and Gail.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14Looking forward to next time, when I'm sure you'll do as well,
0:35:14 > 0:35:16if not better. Thanks so much for playing.
0:35:16 > 0:35:18APPLAUSE
0:35:20 > 0:35:24But, for Paul and John, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Congratulations, Paul and John. You fought off all the competition
0:35:31 > 0:35:33and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:40 > 0:35:43and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at...
0:35:45 > 0:35:48APPLAUSE
0:35:48 > 0:35:50The rules are very simple.
0:35:50 > 0:35:53To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57We've had your one pointless answer only on the show today, John.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59You only have to find one more to go home with that money.
0:35:59 > 0:36:03Firstly, you've got to choose a category and you can choose from these five options.
0:36:03 > 0:36:04They are...
0:36:10 > 0:36:14I think we're torn between Spanish Pop or Movie Stars.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17I think we'll go Movie Stars.
0:36:17 > 0:36:18You're going to go Movie Stars.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20Let's find out what the question is.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:36:23 > 0:36:26to name as many Daniel Craig films as they could.
0:36:26 > 0:36:28Daniel Craig films. Richard.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31We're looking for any feature film for general cinema release
0:36:31 > 0:36:34for which Daniel Craig has received an acting credit
0:36:34 > 0:36:35prior to the end of 2011.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38As always, no TV films, short films or documentaries
0:36:38 > 0:36:40but voice performances do count.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42You have one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:42 > 0:36:45All you need to win that £8,750
0:36:45 > 0:36:48is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:48 > 0:36:52Good luck. Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:36:52 > 0:36:53Your time starts now.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56- Munich.- Yeah.
0:36:56 > 0:36:59What's the one set in the war?
0:36:59 > 0:37:00Defiance.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02- Defiance.- Is he in that?- Yeah.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07There's one where an air balloon crashes, I'm sure.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09But I can't think of the name.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Don't know.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13- Quantum of Solace. - Quantum of Solace.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16What's the other Bond one?
0:37:16 > 0:37:18Casino Royale.
0:37:22 > 0:37:23Daniel Craig.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25- We watched one the other day. - Did we?
0:37:25 > 0:37:27- Yeah.- Did we?
0:37:27 > 0:37:29Yeah, I'm sure we did.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35Can't remember it.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41- What happens in it? - I can't remember.
0:37:43 > 0:37:48- Let's go with them three. Munich. - Defiance.- And Quantum of Solace.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50Five seconds left.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56OK, that's your time up.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59We were looking for Daniel Craig films, I now need to your three answers.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01- Defiance.- Defiance.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03- Munich.- Munich.
0:38:03 > 0:38:04Quantum of Solace.
0:38:04 > 0:38:07Quantum of Solace. Which is your best shot, do you reckon,
0:38:07 > 0:38:08at a pointless answer?
0:38:08 > 0:38:09- Defiance.- Defiance.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11We'll put Defiance in third place.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13Which is your least likely?
0:38:13 > 0:38:15- Quantum of Solace. - OK, we'll put that first.
0:38:15 > 0:38:19OK, let's put them on the board in that order and here they are.
0:38:19 > 0:38:20We've got...
0:38:23 > 0:38:25We were looking for Daniel Craig films.
0:38:25 > 0:38:28Quantum of Solace was your least confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:38:28 > 0:38:31You only have to find one pointless answer, remember,
0:38:31 > 0:38:34to win that jackpot of £8,750.
0:38:34 > 0:38:36OK, Quantum of Solace.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39Is it right and if it is, how many people said it? Quantum of Solace.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43Of course it's right.
0:38:44 > 0:38:45Now, where will it stop?
0:38:45 > 0:38:47It's still going down.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50Broken the 50 mark, down into the 30s into the 20s.
0:38:50 > 0:38:5227.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54APPLAUSE
0:38:54 > 0:38:5727 for Quantum of Solace.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59Not a pointless answer,
0:38:59 > 0:39:02but I don't think you were expecting that to be pointless.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05You only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08£8,750, what would you do with that? Declare it.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11- LAUGHTER - Yeah. Fill out a form.
0:39:11 > 0:39:15I turn 30 soon so I'd like to go away
0:39:15 > 0:39:17cos I'm not looking forward to turning 30 so...
0:39:17 > 0:39:21It's fine. Honestly, it's fine. John, what would you do with that?
0:39:21 > 0:39:23Credit card bills that need paying off first, then,
0:39:23 > 0:39:25if there's anything left over,
0:39:25 > 0:39:27probably just blow it.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29LAUGHTER
0:39:29 > 0:39:31- Put it all on red.- Yeah.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34OK, very good. Well, best of luck with your two remaining answers.
0:39:34 > 0:39:39We're looking for Daniel Craig films. Let's hope nobody said your next answer, Munich.
0:39:39 > 0:39:44This has to be pointless if you're going to win that jackpot.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46For £8,750, let's see how many people said Munich.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52It's right.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55We went down to 27 with Quantum of Solace.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58Munich going down, passes Quantum of Solace,
0:39:58 > 0:40:00down into single figures. Down it goes.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02Oh!
0:40:02 > 0:40:03APPLAUSE
0:40:03 > 0:40:04Oh-ho-ho!
0:40:04 > 0:40:06That's a great answer - two.
0:40:09 > 0:40:10That is a great...
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Think how pleased you'd be with that in normal gameplay.
0:40:13 > 0:40:17That's fantastic. Two. It's a great answer, great low score.
0:40:17 > 0:40:20Sadly, it's only pointless answers we're interested in in this last round
0:40:20 > 0:40:23which means you only have one more chance to win
0:40:23 > 0:40:26today's jackpot, £8,750.
0:40:26 > 0:40:27- OK, right.- Defiance.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29Come on. We are looking for Daniel Craig films.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31Your final answer, Defiance.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33You had no problem putting this last.
0:40:33 > 0:40:37- No.- OK, to win that jackpot, £8,750, this has to be correct,
0:40:37 > 0:40:38has to be pointless.
0:40:38 > 0:40:41If it's both of those things, you leave here with £8,750.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44Come on. Defiance has to be pointless.
0:40:44 > 0:40:45Let's find out.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50OK, right. We've started the run.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Quantum of Solace stopped at 27.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55Munich stopped at two.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58Can Defiance defy both of those and go all the way down to pointless?
0:40:58 > 0:41:00Down it goes, still going.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02- Oh, no! - APPLAUSE
0:41:11 > 0:41:13Unfortunately, Paul, John,
0:41:13 > 0:41:16you didn't find that all-important pointless answer
