0:00:13 > 0:00:18APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Thank you very much.
0:00:24 > 0:00:26I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:26 > 0:00:28the quiz where obvious answers mean nothing
0:00:28 > 0:00:30and obscure answers mean everything.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Let's meet today's players.
0:00:36 > 0:00:41First we welcome Sarah and Kris, our first pair today.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44- How do you two know each other? - We're boyfriend and girlfriend.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47We met through internet dating and we fell in love on the first date
0:00:47 > 0:00:50and moved in after six weeks and we've been together ever since.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53- And where are you from, Kris? - From Aberdeen, up in Scotland.
0:00:53 > 0:00:59From Aberdeen. Now, Sarah, something tells me you're not entirely from Aberdeen, are you?
0:00:59 > 0:01:03No, I've been there for about nine years but I'm originally from Arizona in the States.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Very good. Kris, what are you hoping is going to come up today?
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Football, for definite, that's my strongest subject
0:01:08 > 0:01:10but music I'd be really happy with.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12And the football, English and Scottish?
0:01:12 > 0:01:14Yeah. I'm a Rangers and a West Ham supporter,
0:01:14 > 0:01:16so I travel to see them as much as I can.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19OK, well, very, very best of luck to the pair of you. It's great to have you on.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22Next we welcome back Peter and Laura.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26You were on the show last time. Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28This is your second chance. Peter, remind us how you know each other.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31We're father and daughter.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34For the last 31 years, anyway.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38Laura, what happened last time?
0:01:38 > 0:01:42Well, my dad had not great knowledge of Rowan Atkinson films,
0:01:42 > 0:01:45so we were expelled.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47Anyway, that's behind us now.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Peter, what's going to be brilliant today?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51History, geography, sport.
0:01:51 > 0:01:58- Laura?- Books, films. American politics again would be fantastic if we can,
0:01:58 > 0:02:03although obviously now we have competition on that part, so we'll see.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05OK, well, lovely to have you back on the show.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Let's hope we see more of you this time. Very best of luck.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10And next we welcome back Rhianna and Chris,
0:02:10 > 0:02:12who were also on the show last time.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Rhianna, remind us how you know each other.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16We're flat mates from uni since September.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- You're in your first year at Nottingham Trent.- Yes.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23- Is that right? And you're both lawyers.- Trying to be.
0:02:23 > 0:02:28- Chris, what happened last time? - Oh, I had a miserable round.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Famous Liverpudlians and I got the lead guitarists of the Beatles mixed up.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35But who's heard of the Beatles, anyway? No-one knows the Beatles.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Anyway, that was last time. We're going to see you go much further this time.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44What's going to get you through? What's your dream Pointless category?
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Erm... Alcohol?
0:02:48 > 0:02:51That's what's going to get you through. OK, yeah.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Yeah, you and me both.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Erm... OK. Very good.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Well, very best of luck. Please stay with us beyond the first round.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02And finally, we've got Glenn and Arthur.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04How do you two know each other?
0:03:04 > 0:03:08We met at the steelworks in Redcar 26 years ago.
0:03:08 > 0:03:0926 years ago.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13And we've gone to quizzes together throughout that time,
0:03:13 > 0:03:16- so we've done a lot of quizzing. - A lot of quizzing.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18- Always on the same team? - Always on the same team.
0:03:18 > 0:03:23- Are you very competitive? - Try to be.- Ah! - A Pointless trophy would be nice.
0:03:23 > 0:03:24- Wouldn't it?!- It would.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27What do you do with your time now, Glenn?
0:03:27 > 0:03:31I do a lot of open mics. I play guitar and blues harmonica.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33- Do you?- Yeah.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- What are you hoping is going to come up, Glenn?- Bob Dylan, anything to do with Bob Dylan.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40You know? Painting, art and literature.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42- Very good.- Stuff like that.- OK.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Arthur, anything you'd particularly like?
0:03:44 > 0:03:49I don't mind science, like astronomy or inventors.
0:03:49 > 0:03:50- Astronomy.- Yeah.- Very good.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53OK, well, very best of luck to the pair of you.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56We'll find out more about all of you as the show goes along.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58There's only one person left for me to introduce.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01He's invented a new scale of measurement - the Osum.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04It measure obscurity. It's my pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07Hiya. Hello. Hiya. APPLAUSE
0:04:11 > 0:04:15The first two rounds are that classic Pointless high culture, low culture split.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18It'll be tough to get through to the head-to-head
0:04:18 > 0:04:21but a good team will find themselves in the head-to-head.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24And you know how sometimes I like to point out some lookalikes?
0:04:24 > 0:04:26I do know that you like to do lookalikes.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29I occasionally like to point out some lookalikes.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31He's not going to thank me for this
0:04:31 > 0:04:34but Silvio Berlusconi, there - Peter.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36LAUGHTER
0:04:38 > 0:04:40That might be your best yet.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Will you give me that?
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Erm, no, I think it's absurd but I think it's fair enough.
0:04:45 > 0:04:46I thought you were going to say...
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Arthur looks like he should look like someone.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Eric Bristow I've been called downstairs.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53I don't know if you remember him?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56He's got a look of the Crafty Cockney.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00- I think he looks more like Eric Bristow than Peter looks like Silvio Berlusconi.- Really?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02- I'll be brutally frank with you. - OK.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Thanks very much, Richard.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07All our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10In order to get to final round and be in with a chance of winning our jackpot,
0:05:10 > 0:05:13our contestants need to find the obscure answers those 100 people couldn't get.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15The fewer of the 100 people knew the answer,
0:05:15 > 0:05:17the fewer points they will score.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20What everyone is trying to do is to find a pointless answer,
0:05:20 > 0:05:23that's an answer that none of our 100 people gave
0:05:23 > 0:05:25and each time that happens, we add £250 to the jackpot.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Chris and Matt won the jackpot last time,
0:05:28 > 0:05:31so today's jackpot starts off at £1,000.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:05:39 > 0:05:44OK, in this first round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47The pair with the highest score at the end of the round
0:05:47 > 0:05:50will be eliminated, so try and make sure that's not you.
0:05:50 > 0:05:55OK, our category for round 1 is...
0:05:55 > 0:05:57It's '80s music.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Can you all decide who's going to go first and who's going to go second?
0:06:00 > 0:06:03And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:06:06 > 0:06:11OK, so the question concerns...
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Richard?- This is one of these new round 1s that we do occasionally,
0:06:16 > 0:06:18where instead of asking about one artist,
0:06:18 > 0:06:21we're going to give you a list and you can choose from any of them.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25We're looking for any solo single by any of the artists you're about to see
0:06:25 > 0:06:31that reached the UK top 40 between January 1980 and December 1989.
0:06:31 > 0:06:36Only solo singles, so anything they did in collaboration with another artist won't count.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38And this is according to the Official Charts Company.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40- Very, very best of luck. - OK, thanks, Richard.
0:06:40 > 0:06:45Now, then, Sarah and Kris, you all drew lots and today you are going first.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49As Richard just mentioned, we're going to put six artists on the board
0:06:49 > 0:06:53and we are looking for any solo single by these artists
0:06:53 > 0:06:56from the 1980s and we have got...
0:07:03 > 0:07:05I'll read them again.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14There we are. So we're looking for solo UK top 40 singles
0:07:14 > 0:07:16from the 1980s by these artists.
0:07:16 > 0:07:22- Sarah?- OK. Well, I happened to be a huge Madonna fan in the '80s
0:07:22 > 0:07:23and I'm hoping this one's right.
0:07:23 > 0:07:28- I'm going to go with La Isla Bonita. - La Isla Bonita says Sarah.
0:07:28 > 0:07:32Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said La Isla Bonita.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38It's right.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44- Three, Sarah! - APPLAUSE
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Very, very well done indeed. Very strong start to the round.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51Lovely low score, there.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Well played, Sarah. It was actually written for Michael Jackson
0:07:54 > 0:07:58but Madonna took it after he turned it down and wrote new lyrics for it.
0:07:58 > 0:08:05- Now, then, Laura. - Madonna is probably where I'm going to go as well.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09I'm going to have a little bit of a guess and go with Dress You Up.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13- Dress You Up says Laura.- Yes. - Let's see if that's right
0:08:13 > 0:08:18and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Dress You Up for Madonna.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Absolutely right.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30- CHEERING - Pointless, Laura.
0:08:30 > 0:08:35There we are. Very, very well done indeed.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38That's a pointless answer. It adds £250 to today's jackpot.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42It takes the total up to £1,250 and it scores you nothing.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Very, very strong start to our round, a three then a pointless, Richard.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49Well played, Laura. A number five hit from 1985.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Now, then, Rhianna.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55Well, I've been working in an '80s bar at uni,
0:08:55 > 0:08:59so I should know some but I don't, so...
0:08:59 > 0:09:04I'll go for George Michael, Club Tropicana.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Club Tropicana says Rhianna for George Michael.
0:09:07 > 0:09:12Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Club Tropicana.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18Oh, bad luck, Rhianna.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22That's an incorrect answer, which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:09:23 > 0:09:28- Richard?- Sorry, Rhianna, it was a hit in 1983 for Wham!, rather than George Michael solo.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32- Oh, whoops! - What year were you born in?- '93.- '93!
0:09:32 > 0:09:36- I'd even left university.- I know.
0:09:36 > 0:09:42Everyone else would trade all of their points to have been born in 1993, to be fair,
0:09:42 > 0:09:43so it's not all bad.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Now, then, Arthur.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49They're good categories for me, actually.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53I do know quite a few for quite a lot of them
0:09:53 > 0:09:56and I'll go for Kylie Minogue, The Locomotion.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59The Locomotion, says Arthur. The Locomotion.
0:09:59 > 0:10:04Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said The Locomotion.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Absolutely right.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14- 16. - APPLAUSE
0:10:18 > 0:10:22- 16 for The Locomotion. - Well played, Arthur. From 1988.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- A number two hit. - Thanks, Richard.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Fabulous low score from Laura and Peter,
0:10:30 > 0:10:34then up to 3 for Sarah and Kris, also looking pretty strong.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Then up to 16, where we find Arthur and Glenn
0:10:36 > 0:10:41and then, oh, dear, Rhianna and Chris, it's big hike up to 100.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43We'll just have to keep our fingers crossed.
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Very best of luck.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Right, can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:10:50 > 0:10:55OK, so we're looking for solo hits of the 1980s by these six artists.
0:10:56 > 0:11:02- Glenn?- I think I'll play it safe and I'll do David Bowie, China Girl.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05China Girl. OK, well, you want to be scoring 83 or less with this.
0:11:05 > 0:11:09Here is your red line. You get below that red line, you are through to the next round.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12Let's see - China Girl. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Absolutely right.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23- Ten! - APPLAUSE
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Ten takes your total up to 26.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32Well played, Glenn. Very good answer. It was a number two hit from 1983.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36Now, then, Chris. You are the high scorers on 100.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39- Yes.- We just need a really, really low score from you.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Is this any good for you as a round?
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Erm... Not really.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46- It's not... No. - Were you also born in '93?
0:11:46 > 0:11:48- Yes. '93, yes.- Yeah.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52Erm... I'll probably have to go with Like A Virgin
0:11:52 > 0:11:54but I'm not sure it was in the '80s.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57You really were born in 1993, weren't you?
0:11:57 > 0:12:01OK, erm... OK, Like A Virgin, says Chris.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Like A Virgin.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Of course it's from the '80s!
0:12:14 > 0:12:2032! 32 for Like A Virgin takes your total up, I'm afraid,
0:12:20 > 0:12:24to an unbeatable 132.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26It's a right answer, though. That's good.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29- I can't believe it.- How does that feel?- It feels great, actually.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- Wow!- Now, then, Peter.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Peter, the high scorers on 132 are Chris and Rhianna.
0:12:35 > 0:12:41You are on nothing. The good news is even if you score 100 points you are through to the next round.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44But I have a feeling you'll probably know a good answer.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46Music is not my strong point.
0:12:46 > 0:12:47I'm just going to say...
0:12:50 > 0:12:53- Thriller.- OK. Thriller, says Peter.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said Thriller.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05- Wow! 44. - APPLAUSE
0:13:05 > 0:13:09Well played, Peter. 44 takes your total up to 44. Richard?
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Yes, from 1983, with a 14-minute video.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15- It only got to number ten in the charts, though.- Did it?- Yeah.
0:13:15 > 0:13:20Now, then, Kris. Again, you're already through to the next round.
0:13:20 > 0:13:24The high scores on 132 are Chris and Rhianna. You're on three.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27I'm going to go for a Madonna track called Gambler.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29- Gambler.- Yeah. - Gambler, says Chris.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33Let's see if it's right and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Gambler.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38He's right.
0:13:38 > 0:13:39It's right.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45- Yes! Very well done, Kris. - CHEERING
0:13:45 > 0:13:50A pointless answer. It adds £250 to today's jackpot.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53It takes the total up to £1,500, it scores you nothing
0:13:53 > 0:13:56and it leaves your total at an immaculate 3.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Very, very good low scoring, there.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02Brilliant answer, Kris. It's from the soundtrack of Vision Quest, as well.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05Three points as a team. That is testament to internet dating, isn't it?
0:14:05 > 0:14:07- Isn't it?- How about that?
0:14:07 > 0:14:11Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers. There's plenty of them up there.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15Absolute Beginners, the David Bowie song, is a pointless answer.
0:14:15 > 0:14:20Other Bowie songs - you could have had Up The Hill Backwards, Blue Jean, Cat People, Wild As The Wind.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Dear Jessie by Madonna, Express Yourself by Madonna,
0:14:22 > 0:14:25those were both pointless.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27I Just Can't Stop Loving You by Jacko.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29You could have had Wanna Be Starting Something by him.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32Kissing A Fool and Monkey, both by George Michael.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35One Day In Your Life is another Michael Jackson one.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39Truly by Lionel Ritchie and Wouldn't Change A Thing by Kylie Minogue.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Very well done if you said any of those at home.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46So at the end of our first round, the losing pair with the highest score,
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Chris and Rhianna, once again, I'm sorry to say, it's you.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53- Our score's getting better, though. - Yeah, this time 132.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55So that's good.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57It's been great having you on the show, albeit briefly.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Chris B, Rhianna, thanks so much for playing.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02- Thank you. - APPLAUSE
0:15:02 > 0:15:06But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for round 2.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16Now, obviously there's only room for two pairs in the head-to-head round,
0:15:16 > 0:15:19so one of these pairs will be leaving us at the end of this round.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23Well, that round, very, very exciting. Two pointless answers.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Kris and Sarah are probably the pair to beat at this stage
0:15:25 > 0:15:28but as always, anything can happen.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Our category for round 2 this afternoon is...
0:15:34 > 0:15:38There we are. I said anything could happen - it's just happened.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Can you decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second?
0:15:43 > 0:15:46And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51OK, so our question concerns...
0:15:57 > 0:16:00- Richard?- Yes, on each pass we're going to show you six pairs of prime ministers.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04In each pair, the first one replaced the second one as prime minister.
0:16:04 > 0:16:05Tell us in which year that happened.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07An obscure answer will score you fewer points.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10An incorrect answer, though, as always, 100 points.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13There's going to be 12 in all to have a go at at home.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15It will be impressive if anyone gets all 12.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17- A proper British history lesson, this one.- Mm.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21OK, so we are looking for our first six pairs of prime ministers. Here they are.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23We have got...
0:16:38 > 0:16:40I'll read those one last time.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58We are looking for the years in which these events took place.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Now, then, Sarah.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05Is there anything you can grab onto there?
0:17:05 > 0:17:07No, I don't know a single one of these.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09I was afraid this category would come up,
0:17:09 > 0:17:11so I'm just going to have to take a complete guess
0:17:11 > 0:17:14and Kris is probably going to kill me for getting this wrong
0:17:14 > 0:17:19but I'm going to say Tony Blair replaced John Major in 1998.
0:17:19 > 0:17:231998, says Sarah, for Tony Blair replacing John Major. 1998.
0:17:23 > 0:17:28Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people knew that answer. 1998.
0:17:32 > 0:17:37Bad luck, Sarah. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer, which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:17:37 > 0:17:42- I'm sorry. Richard? - Yes, sorry, Sarah. I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Now, then, Laura.
0:17:44 > 0:17:49- Yes...- Is this good for you?- No. Not at all, in fact.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53I'm going to have a guess at the same question.
0:17:53 > 0:17:59Tony Blair replacing John Major, I think, was 1997.
0:17:59 > 0:18:051997. OK, let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people knew that answer. 1997.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09Absolutely right.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15- 33. - APPLAUSE
0:18:16 > 0:18:1833. That'll do.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Very well played, Laura. Sarah just one year out, there.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Yeah, Labour victory in 1997.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27- They won 419 seats, their biggest ever.- Thanks very much, Richard.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Now, then, Arthur, you are the last person to have this board,
0:18:30 > 0:18:32so if you like, you can talk us through it.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36Erm, Churchill replaced Neville Chamberlain
0:18:36 > 0:18:39round about, I would say, 1949 for that.
0:18:39 > 0:18:431964, I think, for Harold Wilson.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45David Lloyd George, I don't know that one.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47I know it's quite early.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Margaret Thatcher I do know because as a way to remember it,
0:18:50 > 0:18:52if you look at 1997 for Tony Blair,
0:18:52 > 0:18:59it should be 1979 for Margaret Thatcher
0:18:59 > 0:19:05and Harold Wilson replaced Edward Heath, I think, in 1976.
0:19:05 > 0:19:10So the one I would go for, I think, is 1979, Margaret Thatcher.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14OK. 1979, Margaret Thatcher replaced James Callaghan.
0:19:14 > 0:19:19Arthur, I've just got to say, you got a nod from Glenn for that
0:19:19 > 0:19:22but on your other dates, Glenn was just shaking his head.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Every time you said something he went...
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Anyway, I think he likes the one you've gone with.
0:19:29 > 0:19:331979, Margaret Thatcher replaced James Callaghan.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people knew that answer.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45Very well done. 29, Arthur.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51- Very well done indeed. - Well played, Arthur.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54As you say, '79 and '97 are mirror images of each other.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56A huge Conservative win in '79.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00Let's test some of Glenn's head-shaking, shall we, here?
0:20:00 > 0:20:04So Arthur went for '64 for Harold Wilson replaced Alec DouglasHome.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Is that right or wrong, do you think, Glenn?
0:20:06 > 0:20:09I'm not sure but I don't think it was '64.
0:20:09 > 0:20:10It was '64, actually.
0:20:10 > 0:20:14That would have scored six points. That would have been a terrific answer.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Churchill replaced Chamberlain '49?
0:20:17 > 0:20:22- I think it would be 1940. - 1940 is exactly right. Just after the war started.
0:20:22 > 0:20:2419 points for that.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Lloyd George replaced Herbert Henry Asquith. It was very early.
0:20:27 > 0:20:28It was 1916.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30That would have scored you four points.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34And Wilson replacing Heath - do you think that was '76?
0:20:35 > 0:20:39Were you shaking your head there as well? It was '74, the answer to that.
0:20:39 > 0:20:411974 would have scored you eight points.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43- Very well done if you got those. - Thank you, Richard.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49Lowest score of the pass, Arthur's, there.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51So Arthur and Glenn looking particularly strong on 29.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Up to 33, where we find Laura and Peter
0:20:54 > 0:20:57and then all the way up to 100, where we find Sarah and Kris.
0:20:57 > 0:21:01So, Kris, we really need a very low-scoring answer from you on this next pass.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05Very best of luck. Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:21:09 > 0:21:12OK, we're going to put six more pairs of prime ministers on the board,
0:21:12 > 0:21:14six more pairs and here they are.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16We have got:
0:21:32 > 0:21:34I'll read those all one more time.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37We're looking for the years in which...
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Those are the years we are asking for.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56- Glenn?- I've never studied the years
0:21:56 > 0:22:00but I think Clement Attlee replaced Churchill when the war finished
0:22:00 > 0:22:06- in 1945, so I'll go for 1945. - 1945 says Glenn,
0:22:06 > 0:22:09for Clem Attlee replacing Winston Churchill.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12If you get below the red line, you are into the head-to-head.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16Let's see. 1945. Is that right? How many people said it?
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Absolutely right.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25And you are through. Very, very well done, Glenn.
0:22:26 > 0:22:2814.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33That's a great answer. It takes your total up to 43.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37Churchill's approval ratings were as high as 83% during 1945
0:22:37 > 0:22:39but beaten by Attlee - very good answer.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Thanks very much indeed.
0:22:41 > 0:22:46Now, then, Peter. You're on 33. The high scorers remain Kris and Sarah on 100.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49That means if you can score 66 or less,
0:22:49 > 0:22:51you are through to the head-to-head.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57Yes, erm, I think I know the top one and the bottom one
0:22:57 > 0:23:00and I'm not sure about the three in the middle,
0:23:00 > 0:23:02so I think I'll go with the bottom one,
0:23:02 > 0:23:06Gordon Brown replacing Tony Blair in 2008.
0:23:06 > 0:23:112008 says Peter for Gordon Brown replacing Tony Blair. 2008.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:23:14 > 0:23:18Here's your red line. Below that, you are in the head-to-head. 2008.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29Bad luck, Peter. That's an incorrect answer,
0:23:29 > 0:23:31which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34That takes your total up to 133.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37- Richard?- I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass.
0:23:37 > 0:23:42OK. Wow, Kris. Peter and Laura are now the high scorers on 133.
0:23:42 > 0:23:46A score of 32 or less from you and you are into the head-to-head.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49I'm going to go for the James Callaghan replacing Harold Wilson answer.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54And I'm going to... Oh, I don't know.
0:23:56 > 0:24:01I'll go for Gordon Brown replacing Tony Blair
0:24:01 > 0:24:04and I'm going to go for 2009.
0:24:05 > 0:24:102009, says Kris, for Gordon Brown replacing Tony Blair.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12There is your red line.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Below that red line, you are through to the head to head.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Is it right and how many people said it?
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Bad luck, Kris, bad luck.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27That's an incorrect answer, so you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30That takes your total up to 200.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33- Richard.- Yes, sorry, Kris. It was 2007.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37And also that would have only scored you 19 points.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39Oh!
0:24:39 > 0:24:44- If you had gone for Callaghan replacing Wilson, what would you have gone for?- I would have went 1974.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47It was '76. That would have scored you six points.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49Cameron replacing Gordon Brown, wouldn't have seen you through.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54That was 2010 but would have scored 46 points.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58- Only 46?- That's so recent, even Rhianna and Chris were born when that happened.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02Eden replaced Winston Churchill in 1955.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04That would have scored you seven points.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07And Macmillan replaced Antony Eden two years later in '57.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10That's the best answer on the board. One point.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13Very well done to anyone who got all of those. It's very impressive.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:25:15 > 0:25:19So at the end of round two, the pair with the highest score, I'm sorry to say,
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Kris and Sarah, who came so close.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Sorry to say goodbye to you. We will see again next time,
0:25:24 > 0:25:26where I'm sure you will do much better.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30- Kris and Sarah, thanks for playing. Thank you.- Cheers - APPLAUSE
0:25:30 > 0:25:34But for the remaining two pairs, things are about to get even more exciting
0:25:34 > 0:25:37as we enter the head-to-head.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45Well, congratulations, Glenn and Arthur, Peter and Laura.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47You are now only one round away from the final
0:25:47 > 0:25:48and a chance to play for our jackpot,
0:25:48 > 0:25:52which currently stands at £1,500.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55APPLAUSE
0:25:57 > 0:25:58You're now going to go head to head.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05The great news is from here on in you can confer.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09You can actually play as a team. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15OK, here comes your first question
0:26:15 > 0:26:17and it concerns...
0:26:20 > 0:26:23- Richard?- Yes, for this question we're going to show you five coloured lines
0:26:23 > 0:26:28and you have to tell us which London underground lines those colours represent. Very best of luck.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32OK. Thank you. Let's reveal our five London underground lines
0:26:32 > 0:26:34and here they are. We have got...
0:26:50 > 0:26:52OK, there we are.
0:26:52 > 0:26:57Five London underground lines indicated by their colour codes.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Now, then, Glenn and Arthur, you've played best so far
0:27:00 > 0:27:01so you get to go first.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03What are you thinking?
0:27:05 > 0:27:08- We'll go for that one. - We'll go for D.
0:27:08 > 0:27:13As we're northern lads, we're going to go for D as the Northern Line.
0:27:13 > 0:27:17D the Northern Line, say Glenn and Arthur.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20D, Northern. Peter and Laura.
0:27:20 > 0:27:24- We're going to go for B, Jubilee. - B, Jubilee.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28Glenn and Arthur went with D, the Northern Line.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many of our 100 people said D, the Northern Line.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38Absolutely right.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43- APPLAUSE - 31
0:27:45 > 0:27:4731. That's not bad.
0:27:47 > 0:27:52Peter and Laura, you have said B, the Jubilee Line.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54B, the Jubilee line.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said that.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Absolutely right.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Will it go down lower than 31?
0:28:05 > 0:28:08- Yes, it will. Very well done indeed. 17 for Jubilee Line. - APPLAUSE
0:28:11 > 0:28:15Very well done. That means after one question, Peter and Laura, you are up one-nil.
0:28:15 > 0:28:20- Richard.- Yes, well played Laura, there. Inaugurated in 1979, the underground's newest line.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22There was an early day motion in parliament
0:28:22 > 0:28:24to rename it the Elizabeth Jubilee line.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Let's go through the rest of them.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28A was the Piccadilly line.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33That would have scored 19 points.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36Now, C, is the best answer on the board.
0:28:36 > 0:28:39It only has two stops, which are Waterloo and Bank,
0:28:39 > 0:28:40and it's the Waterloo and City Line.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42Very well done if you said that
0:28:42 > 0:28:44because that only scored five points.
0:28:44 > 0:28:50We've seen the Northern Line and E is the Hammersmith and City Line,
0:28:50 > 0:28:54which would have scored you nine points.
0:28:54 > 0:28:58- Stops just outside the BBC, as well. - Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00OK, here comes your second question.
0:29:00 > 0:29:03Glenn and Arthur you have to win this question to stay in the game.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06Very best of luck. Here it comes. It concerns...
0:29:10 > 0:29:13- Richard?- Yeah, we're going to show you five clues now
0:29:13 > 0:29:16to facts about the English Grand National.
0:29:16 > 0:29:20Can you pick the most obscure answer from these? Very best of luck.
0:29:20 > 0:29:21OK, thanks very much, Richard.
0:29:21 > 0:29:24Peter and Laura, you look very happy with that.
0:29:24 > 0:29:28No, not really, but I can give this over to my dad
0:29:28 > 0:29:32- and lose all responsibility, which I like.- OK.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Very good indeed. Right, well, let's reveal our five facts
0:29:34 > 0:29:37about the Grand National and here they are.
0:29:37 > 0:29:39We have got:
0:29:54 > 0:29:57I'll read all those one more time.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15There you are. Five clues to facts about the Grand National.
0:30:15 > 0:30:17Peter and Laura, you go first this time.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22Erm... I certainly could give you three of them.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27They cross the Melling Road.
0:30:28 > 0:30:32The Melling Road, says Peter. The Melling Road.
0:30:32 > 0:30:37OK. Glenn and Arthur, what do you want to go for?
0:30:37 > 0:30:41Yeah, the fence named after the '67 winner is Foinaven.
0:30:41 > 0:30:45The Foinaven fence. OK, the Foinaven fence.
0:30:45 > 0:30:49So we have the Melling Road and we have the Foinaven fence.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52Glenn and Arthur, this is the one you have to win.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54Peter and Laura have said the Melling Road.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57Let's see how many people said the Melling Road.
0:31:02 > 0:31:03Absolutely right.
0:31:09 > 0:31:10Ten!
0:31:11 > 0:31:12Thank goodness.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15Ten for the Melling Road. Very well done indeed.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17Lovely low score, there.
0:31:17 > 0:31:19Glenn and Arthur, that is what you have to beat - ten -
0:31:19 > 0:31:22with the Foinaven fence.
0:31:22 > 0:31:26Let's see if it's right and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:31:28 > 0:31:32Very well done. It's right. The question is, will it go down below ten?
0:31:32 > 0:31:34It's still going down.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Yeah, you've done it! Very well done.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42Glenn and Arthur, you are back in the game.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44After two questions, it's one all. Richard.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47Well played, Glenn and Arthur. Peter gave us the second best answer
0:31:47 > 0:31:50and then you just went under him, the best two answers up there.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52Let's take a look at the others.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54It usually takes place at Aintree, of course.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56That would have scored you 52 points.
0:31:56 > 0:32:00The Elizabeth Taylor film in which it features, that's National Velvet.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02That would have scored you 39.
0:32:02 > 0:32:06And the first woman to train a winner was the trainer of Corbiere, Jenny Pitman.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09That would have scored you 12 points. You got the best answers.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11Foinaven, the best answer on the board.
0:32:11 > 0:32:12Thanks very much, Richard.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15OK, it goes down to a third question.
0:32:15 > 0:32:18Whoever wins this question wins the round
0:32:18 > 0:32:21and goes through to the final to play for that jackpot. Here it comes. Best of luck.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24It concerns...
0:32:27 > 0:32:31- Richard?- Yeah, we're going to show you the English title of five operas
0:32:31 > 0:32:36but we've left out the last word - can you fill in those last words, and pick the most obscure.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38- Good luck to both teams. - OK, thanks very much.
0:32:38 > 0:32:43Let's reveal our five operas and here they are. We have got...
0:32:55 > 0:32:57I'll read those all one last time. And we've got:
0:33:05 > 0:33:07Glenn and Arthur, you go first this time.
0:33:07 > 0:33:11We'll go for the top one. I think it's Eugene Onegin.
0:33:11 > 0:33:15Eugene Onegin, say Glenn and Arthur.
0:33:15 > 0:33:19- Peter and Laura.- We think we know the bottom two.
0:33:21 > 0:33:23OK, we'll go for the bottom one.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26Orpheus In The Underworld.
0:33:26 > 0:33:28Orpheus In The Underworld.
0:33:28 > 0:33:32So we have Eugene Onegin and Orpheus In The Underworld.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Glenn and Arthur, you went for Eugene Onegin. Let's see if that's right
0:33:35 > 0:33:38and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:33:42 > 0:33:43Absolutely right.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50- Very well done indeed, Glenn and Arthur. - APPLAUSE
0:33:50 > 0:33:52Five for Eugene Onegin.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59Now, then, Peter and Laura have gone for Orpheus In The Underworld.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04This will let us know who is going through to the final.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06Orpheus In The Underworld.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12It's right.
0:34:13 > 0:34:16Is it going to go down lower than five, though?
0:34:16 > 0:34:17- Oh! 21! - APPLAUSE
0:34:18 > 0:34:20Well done, guys.
0:34:20 > 0:34:2521. Which means after three questions, Arthur and Glenn are through to the final, two-one.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27- Very well done.- A terrific head-to-head from both teams.
0:34:27 > 0:34:31For the second question in a row you got the best two answers on the board.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34Orpheus In The Underworld by Offenbach and Eugene Onegin by Tchaikovsky.
0:34:34 > 0:34:38The Flying Dutchman, Wagner's opera.
0:34:38 > 0:34:40That would have scored you 26.
0:34:40 > 0:34:42The Magic Flute. That's Mozart, of course.
0:34:42 > 0:34:43That would have scored you 34.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45And The Barber Of Seville, Rossini,
0:34:45 > 0:34:48which would have scored you 48.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50So the best two answers. Well played, both teams.
0:34:50 > 0:34:54Thanks very much. So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head,
0:34:54 > 0:34:56I'm afraid it's Peter and Laura.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58But what an exciting head-to-head that was.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00Great contestants. Peter and Laura.
0:35:04 > 0:35:07But for Glenn and Arthur it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14Well, congratulations, Glenn and Arthur,
0:35:14 > 0:35:17you've seen off the competition and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:25 > 0:35:30and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £1,500.
0:35:30 > 0:35:31APPLAUSE
0:35:34 > 0:35:39Well, you said you wanted to take a Pointless trophy back up to Hartlepool
0:35:39 > 0:35:41and you will.
0:35:41 > 0:35:46There we go. Horse racing and opera. Lowest two scores on the boards.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48I mean, an admirable breadth of knowledge there,
0:35:48 > 0:35:50so no flies on you.
0:35:50 > 0:35:51Now, the rules are very simple.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54To win that money all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:35:54 > 0:35:57We've had two pointless answers today. You have to find one more
0:35:57 > 0:35:59and you will leave here with that £1,500 jackpot.
0:35:59 > 0:36:05Firstly, you've got to choose a category and you can choose from these five options. They are:
0:36:12 > 0:36:16What do you think? Novelists or film duos for me.
0:36:16 > 0:36:20- Novelists...- You like motorsport. - Yeah, motorsport would do.- Yeah.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23United Nations comes up quite regular, doesn't it?
0:36:23 > 0:36:25So that could be a bit tougher.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28What do you think? Film duos do you think or...?
0:36:28 > 0:36:32- Go for film duos, if you like. - We'll try film duos.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34OK, film duos it is. Film duos it is.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37Let's find out what the question is and here we go.
0:36:37 > 0:36:39We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:36:39 > 0:36:46to name as many films starring The Odd Couple actors as they could.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49- Right.- Richard?- Yeah, we're looking for any feature film made for cinema release
0:36:49 > 0:36:53for which either Jack Lemmon or Walter Matthau received an acting credit.
0:36:53 > 0:36:55As always, no short films, TV films or documentaries
0:36:55 > 0:36:57but voice performances do count.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00We won't accept The Odd Couple or The Odd Couple 2, I'm afraid.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03So any film starring Jack Lemmon or Walter Matthau.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Very, very best of luck.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07OK, you now have up to one minute to come up with three answers
0:37:07 > 0:37:13and all you need to win that £1,500 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:13 > 0:37:17- Are you ready?- We are.- OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23Walter Matthau was in Hello, Dolly!, wasn't he?
0:37:23 > 0:37:26- The Fortune Cookie, he was in that. - Fortune Cookie.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29- Jack Lemmon was in Mister Roberts with Henry Fonda.- Yeah.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31That sounds good. Take that.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33- Erm...- Erm...
0:37:33 > 0:37:37- Jack Lemmon. What was that one? - Dennis The Menace, the kids' film.
0:37:37 > 0:37:39Yeah, he was in Dennis The Menace. That's correct, yeah.
0:37:39 > 0:37:44Erm... It's a question of which is the least obvious, isn't it?
0:37:44 > 0:37:47- Erm...- We're running out of ideas.
0:37:47 > 0:37:52What about the Wacky Races one? Jack Lemmon was in that, wasn't he?
0:37:52 > 0:37:56- The...- Oh, he was, yeah, the... - Monte Carlo Or Bust. - Monte Carlo Or Bust, he was in.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59Or was it The Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines?
0:37:59 > 0:38:02- No, Monte Carlo Or Bust. - I think that was Terry Thomas.- Yeah.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04Erm...
0:38:04 > 0:38:06We'll go for the old one, Mister Roberts.
0:38:06 > 0:38:10- The Fortune Cookie. I like that. - The Fortune Cookie.
0:38:10 > 0:38:13- 10 seconds left. - And Dennis The Menace, I think. - Yeah.
0:38:13 > 0:38:15- OK, those are your three?- Yeah.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17OK, we'll stop the clock there.
0:38:17 > 0:38:21We were looking for Jack Lemmon or Walter Matthau films.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23I now need your three answers.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26- Er, what did we say? Dennis The Menace. - Dennis The Menace.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29- The Fortune Cookie. - The Fortune Cookie.
0:38:29 > 0:38:33- What was the other one? Mister Roberts.- Mister Roberts.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35- And Mister Roberts. - I didn't know that one.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38OK. Dennis The Menace, The Fortune Cookie and Mister Roberts.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41Of the three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:41 > 0:38:44- A think Mister Roberts because he didn't know it. - There's not a lot I do know!
0:38:44 > 0:38:47Arthur doesn't know it, so Mister Roberts goes last.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50- Which shall we put first? - Dennis The Menace. - Dennis The Menace.
0:38:50 > 0:38:54OK, let's put them up on the board in that order and here they are.
0:38:54 > 0:38:58We have got:
0:38:58 > 0:39:03OK, so we were looking for films starring either Jack Lemmon or Walter Matthau.
0:39:03 > 0:39:09Your first answer, the one you thought was least likely to be pointless, was Dennis The Menace.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11Remember, you only have to find one pointless answer
0:39:11 > 0:39:14to win that jackpot of £1,500.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17Let's see how many people said Dennis The Menace.
0:39:23 > 0:39:27It's right. Dennis The Menace gets us off to a good start.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29Down it goes. If this goes all the way down to zero,
0:39:29 > 0:39:32you leave here immediately with £1,500.
0:39:32 > 0:39:35Down into single figures. Still down it goes.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37- One! One! - GROANS AND APPLAUSE
0:39:37 > 0:39:41- ALEXANDER LAUGHS - Who was that person?
0:39:41 > 0:39:43It was your first one, it's fine.
0:39:43 > 0:39:50Wow! Well, it's looking very good for The Fortune Cookie and Mister Roberts, isn't it?
0:39:50 > 0:39:53You had no hesitation putting Dennis The Menace as your least likely shot.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56That would be the one, his most recent, we would look at
0:39:56 > 0:39:59and if people can't remember them ones, then...
0:39:59 > 0:40:01- He has a lucky fortune cookie at home.- I do.
0:40:01 > 0:40:05I always put a snooker and I always say I've got my lucky fortune cookie.
0:40:05 > 0:40:09- That's why I always beat him. - I've never seen so many flukes.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11That was not a pointless answer,
0:40:11 > 0:40:14so you only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:40:14 > 0:40:17£1,500. What would you do with £1,500, Glenn?
0:40:17 > 0:40:23Erm, my grandson wants to learn to drive, he's 18,
0:40:23 > 0:40:24so I'd do that
0:40:24 > 0:40:27and I'd probably have a holiday - try to go maybe to the States,
0:40:27 > 0:40:30- Nashville or somewhere. - Very good indeed, yeah.
0:40:30 > 0:40:31Arthur, how about you?
0:40:31 > 0:40:35Erm, well I've got a 13-year-old son and I've got a dog
0:40:35 > 0:40:39and they both like going to Center Parcs, so I think that may be me.
0:40:39 > 0:40:40- There we are.- Yeah.
0:40:40 > 0:40:45That's... That's a foregone conclusion, there. Center Parcs it is.
0:40:45 > 0:40:47Other holiday venues are available.
0:40:48 > 0:40:51OK, we are looking for films starring Jack Lemmon or Walter Matthau.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54Let's hope nobody said your next answer - The Fortune Cookie.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56Has to be right, it has to be pointless.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59If it's both of those things, you leave here with £1,500.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02Let's see. How many people said The Fortune Cookie?
0:41:06 > 0:41:07Well, it's right.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10Dennis The Menace got us off to a rolling start there,
0:41:10 > 0:41:11taking us down to one.
0:41:11 > 0:41:14The Fortune Cooking falling similarly.
0:41:14 > 0:41:18If this goes down to zero, you leave here with £1,500.
0:41:18 > 0:41:19- Yes, you've done it! - CHEERING
0:41:19 > 0:41:21Very well done!
0:41:23 > 0:41:26- Very good. Well done.- Get in there. - Brilliant. That's brilliant. Superb.
0:41:26 > 0:41:30Many congratulations. That's wonderful.
0:41:33 > 0:41:37Well, congratulations. The Fortune Cookie was a pointless answer
0:41:37 > 0:41:40which means you go home with that jackpot of £1,500.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Very, very well done indeed.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Well played, guys. You chose the right category, didn't you?
0:41:49 > 0:41:52No flukes needed whatsoever with that Fortune Cookie.
0:41:52 > 0:41:54If we had to go on to Mister Roberts,
0:41:54 > 0:41:56it would have scored one point, as well. AUDIENCE OOHS
0:41:56 > 0:42:00- Just like...- That was your answer. - Just like Dennis The Menace.
0:42:00 > 0:42:03It's called Dennis in the UK but Dennis The Menace in the States, so we accepted that.
0:42:03 > 0:42:05Very well played.
0:42:05 > 0:42:09You could do worse than spend a weekend watching Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon films.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11There's some brilliant films, there.
0:42:11 > 0:42:13Let's take a look at some of the other pointless answers.
0:42:13 > 0:42:16The wonder Glengarry Glen Ross Jack Lemmon is in that.
0:42:16 > 0:42:20Grumpier Old Men, the follow-up to Grumpy Old Men, had both of them in it.
0:42:20 > 0:42:23Hello, Dolly! which you mentioned, it was Walter Matthau. That was pointless.
0:42:25 > 0:42:28JFK, that's got both of them in it.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31That's Life!, that's Jack Lemmon, and The China Syndrome as well.
0:42:31 > 0:42:35And The Fortune Cookie should really double your money, because it's got both of them in it.
0:42:35 > 0:42:37Very good indeed.
0:42:37 > 0:42:39Well, thanks again to our winning players, Glenn and Arthur,
0:42:39 > 0:42:42who go away with today's jackpot of £1,500.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44APPLAUSE
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Join us next time, when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test.
0:42:50 > 0:42:55- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:42:55 > 0:42:56APPLAUSE
