0:00:24 > 0:00:29Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:29 > 0:00:32the quiz show where the aim of the game is to score as few points as possible.
0:00:32 > 0:00:36To do that you need to come up with the answers that no-one else could think of.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38Let's meet today's players.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45First up, we welcome Rhian and Richeldis,
0:00:45 > 0:00:47you're our first pair on the show.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50What two excellent names, Rhian and Richeldis.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52How do you two know each other?
0:00:52 > 0:00:54We're friends from uni and housemates.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56Richeldis, where does Richeldis come from?
0:00:56 > 0:01:00There's a place in Norfolk called Walsingham,
0:01:00 > 0:01:02it's a place of pilgrimage for Christians,
0:01:02 > 0:01:05and there was a lady called Richeldis de Faverches.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Richeldis de Faverches?
0:01:07 > 0:01:09Yes, and it comes from there.
0:01:09 > 0:01:15- OK, very good. Good name. Rhian? - Yes.- What do you like to get up to?
0:01:15 > 0:01:18I watch a lot of telly in my spare time.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21We tend to go to a lot of pub quizzes...
0:01:21 > 0:01:23How well do you do in pub quizzes?
0:01:23 > 0:01:25We get over 50%.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Well, that's good for us.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30OK, not bad.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33We've won once and come second once, as well.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35But the time we won was cos there were two teams.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37LAUGHTER
0:01:37 > 0:01:41OK, well still, that's not bad. Not bad at all.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43Best of luck, it's great to have you on the show.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47And next we welcome Sarah and Ed. How do you two know each other?
0:01:47 > 0:01:50- We're friends. - And where are you from, Ed?
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- We're from Weymouth in Dorset. - Sarah, what do you do?
0:01:53 > 0:01:56I'm a research data administrator for the NHS.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00- Ed, what are your hobbies? - I like playing tennis an awful lot.
0:02:00 > 0:02:01Are you a good tennis player?
0:02:01 > 0:02:03According to the LTA rankings
0:02:03 > 0:02:07I'm the 683rd best player in the country,
0:02:07 > 0:02:08not that I...
0:02:08 > 0:02:12Not that I know about these things.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15But 683rd... Are you fiercely competitive?
0:02:15 > 0:02:18I'd say I am, yes.
0:02:18 > 0:02:23I'm saying you are, yes. There's something about your mien that tells me you are fiercely competitive.
0:02:23 > 0:02:28Sarah and Ed, great to have you on the show. Very best of luck to the pair of you.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Next, we welcome back John and Val, who were on the show last time.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Everyone gets two chances, remember to reach the Pointless final.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36This is your second and final chance.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38John, tell us how you know each other.
0:02:38 > 0:02:44- We've known each other since 1958.- 7.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49- And we've been married for most of that time.- Married for 52 years?
0:02:49 > 0:02:52- We met on a tennis court.- Did you?
0:02:52 > 0:02:57Those days I used to play tennis but I was only 684th, I think.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59LAUGHTER
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Val, remind us what happened last time.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04We were knocked out in the head-to-head.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08What a tight fought head-to-head that was.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10What would you like to see come up today, Val?
0:03:10 > 0:03:16I'd quite like the history of the monarchy. So, anything in that line.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20History of the monarchy would be good. John, what would you love to see?
0:03:20 > 0:03:24Geography or perhaps some film musicals.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Excellent, any of those in the show today? No?
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Very good. John and Val, welcome back to the show.
0:03:31 > 0:03:36You made it through to the head-to-head last time, let's hope you make it there again and further.
0:03:36 > 0:03:37And finally, we welcome back
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Gary and Neil who were also on the show last time.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Gary, how do you two know each other?
0:03:42 > 0:03:44- Brothers.- Neil, what happened last time?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Last time, we went out in the first round where we discovered
0:03:47 > 0:03:51that I know absolutely nothing about Justin Bieber.
0:03:51 > 0:03:52All credit to you, Neil,
0:03:52 > 0:03:55all credit to you for knowing nothing about the Bieber.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Gary, what do you hope is going to happen today?
0:03:58 > 0:04:02Hopefully we can shine a bit better than we did last time,
0:04:02 > 0:04:06hopefully get past the first round, that's all you can really ask for.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Neil, any particular method you might be able to employ
0:04:09 > 0:04:11to get through to the head-to-head and beyond?
0:04:11 > 0:04:14I think getting correct answers is probably is a good way.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19Correct answers are good. Low-scoring correct answers even better.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Gary, we didn't have any animation last time,
0:04:22 > 0:04:25you're a graphic artist, we let you down.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29- Oh, well, hopefully this time, fingers crossed.- Fingers crossed.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33Great to have you back, best of luck. We'll find out more about you as the show goes along.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36There's only one person left to introduce, without him
0:04:36 > 0:04:38the show would just be me talking to strangers.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Hiya.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50They're not strangers, are they?
0:04:50 > 0:04:53No, no such as thing as strangers on this show.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57Because some of them have been here before, John and Val aren't strangers, are they?
0:04:57 > 0:04:58- No, no.- We know them very well from last time.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02I don't feel like Rhian and Richeldis are strangers, either.
0:05:02 > 0:05:03(They are a bit.)
0:05:03 > 0:05:06By Round Two they won't be.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09But now, I'm still a bit shy, I'm shy of the new contestants.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Now Round One, Gary in particular is going to like it.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13OK.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16But you know, who's going to win, of course?
0:05:16 > 0:05:20Ed thinks he's going to win, but that's by the by, he can win next time.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22- Val, obviously.- Val, Yeah.- Cos so unlucky last time, Val and John.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25Just terrific all the way through so everybody else,
0:05:25 > 0:05:28you're really going to have to go it some to beat John and Val today.
0:05:28 > 0:05:33There we are. All our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35In order to get to the final round and be in with a chance
0:05:35 > 0:05:38of winning the jackpot, our contestants must find
0:05:38 > 0:05:40the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44The fewer of the 100 people who knew the answer, the fewer points you will score.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48What everyone's trying to do is to find a pointless answer,
0:05:48 > 0:05:51this is one of those answers that none of our 100 people could think of.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Each time that happens we add £250 to the jackpot.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58Nobody won the jackpot last time so we add another £1,000 to that,
0:05:58 > 0:06:01so today's jackpot starts off at...
0:06:01 > 0:06:03APPLAUSE
0:06:05 > 0:06:07If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15In this first round, each of you must give me one answer.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17You can't confer with your partner.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Whichever pair has the highest score at the end of the round
0:06:20 > 0:06:23will be eliminated so try and make sure that's not you.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Our first category today is...
0:06:28 > 0:06:32Decide in your pairs who's going to go first and second.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes. It concerns...
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Richard.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51We gave our traditional 100 people the traditional 100 seconds
0:06:51 > 0:06:54to name as many characters as they could in a picture.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58You're about to see that picture and you need to name one of those characters, too.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Very, very best of luck.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Thanks, Richard. Rhian and Richeldis,
0:07:02 > 0:07:05you all drew lots before the show and today you are going first.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09In this new round, we're going to show you an image containing cartoon characters.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12You just need to give us the name of the most obscure character
0:07:12 > 0:07:14you can see in that picture.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17OK. And here is our image.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22There we are.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24The Hanna-Barbera family.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28What is the most obscure character shown here that you can think of?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Richeldis.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33I think I know a few of them.
0:07:33 > 0:07:38I think the one I'm going to go with
0:07:38 > 0:07:41is relatively well known.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Err...
0:07:43 > 0:07:44ooh, no.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47I'm going to go for Scrappy-Doo.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Scrappy-Doo, says Richeldis, Scrappy-Doo.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53Let's see if that's right and if it is then let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Absolutely right.
0:08:05 > 0:08:0737 for Scrappy-Doo.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Well done, Richeldis, full name Scrappy Cornelius Doo.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14- Absolutely ruined that show, didn't he?- Terrible.
0:08:14 > 0:08:20- Uh, he stunk the place up, didn't he?- Oh, yes. Sarah.
0:08:20 > 0:08:21Hanna-Barbera good for you?
0:08:21 > 0:08:23Yeah, I think so.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27I recognise a lot of those but I'm going to play it a little bit safe
0:08:27 > 0:08:31and say Betty Rubble.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Betty Rubble, says Sarah. Betty Rubble.
0:08:34 > 0:08:39Let's see if that's right and if it is then let's see how many of our 100 said it.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42It's right.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Very well done indeed. 34 for Betty Rubble.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Well played, Sarah, her maiden name was Betty Bricker.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57AUDIENCE LAUGHS
0:08:57 > 0:09:02- Really?- Yeah.- She must have been thrilled when she met...her husband.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06- Who shall remain nameless for now. - Who shall remain nameless.
0:09:06 > 0:09:10Now then, Val. Is this a good round for you?
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Well, yes, they're all very familiar, but um...
0:09:13 > 0:09:18but I'm going to go with Pebbles Flintstone.
0:09:18 > 0:09:19Pebbles Flintstone, says Val.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22Let's see if that's right and if it is then let's see how many of our 100 said it.
0:09:35 > 0:09:3740. Very tight grouping here, isn't it?
0:09:37 > 0:09:39It is, it's quite a big score for Pebbles Flintstone.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43- Born at the end of the third series of Flintstones.- Now then, Gary.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46We are looking for the names of the cartoon characters
0:09:46 > 0:09:48in this picture.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50I'm guessing this is going to be just food and drink to you.
0:09:50 > 0:09:54Well, I do know quite a few of them but it's trying to pick out one
0:09:54 > 0:09:58that maybe not a lot of other people are going to know.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Um, I think I'm going to go for...
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Judy Jetson.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Judy Jetson, says Gary.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Let's see if that's right and if it is then let's see how many of our 100 said it.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Ooh. Bad luck, Gary.
0:10:18 > 0:10:19Unfortunately, an incorrect answer,
0:10:19 > 0:10:22which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24I wonder why, Richard.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28Sorry, Gary, there is a Judy Jetson but not in that picture I'm afraid.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Ooh.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- Are you OK?- I'm feeling Gary's pain.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36OK, we're halfway through the round,
0:10:36 > 0:10:39let's take a look at the scores as they stand.
0:10:39 > 0:10:4134 is the best score so far
0:10:41 > 0:10:43from you Sarah, lovely answer there.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Then up to 37 where Richeldis and Rhian are,
0:10:46 > 0:10:48then up to 40 where we find Val and John.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Then quite a hike up to 100
0:10:51 > 0:10:54where we find Gary and Neil.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56So, yes, Neil, we'll need some good answering from you
0:10:56 > 0:11:00on the next pass and hope that maybe someone else has a disaster
0:11:00 > 0:11:03and that might be enough to keep you in the game. Very best of luck.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:11:10 > 0:11:14We are looking for the names of these cartoon characters.
0:11:14 > 0:11:15You are going to try to find the one
0:11:15 > 0:11:18you think the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Neil, you're the high-scorers on 100.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23We need a low score from you.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26There's a few up there that I recognise.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30Given our situation I may have to have a guess.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34I think there's one up there called Elroy Jetson.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38Elroy Jetson, says Neil. Elroy Jetson.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42There's no red line for you as you are already the high-scorers, but let's see.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Elroy Jetson is that right, and how many people said it?
0:11:46 > 0:11:49It's right.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Oh, it's a great answer.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Look at that!
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Very, very well said, Neil.
0:12:02 > 0:12:043 for Elroy Jetson takes your total up to 103.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08I wonder if that's going to be enough to keep you in the game, let's hope it is.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Well done, Neil, given yourself a big chance there.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13The son of the Jetsons, Elroy Jetson. Very good answer.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15Now then, John,
0:12:15 > 0:12:17the high-scorers are Neil and Gary on 103, you're on 40,
0:12:17 > 0:12:20a score of 62 or less from you
0:12:20 > 0:12:22will keep you in the game.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26Remember, we're looking for the names of any character in this picture.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30It's an interesting picture, I recognise quite a few of them,
0:12:30 > 0:12:32there's some of them I don't know their names,
0:12:32 > 0:12:36but I think at the front there is Boo-Boo.
0:12:36 > 0:12:37Boo-Boo, says John.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Let's see if Boo-Boo is right, how many people said it.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44It's right.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46You've done it.
0:12:50 > 0:12:51Taking your total up to 67.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Richard.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Well played, John. First appeared in 1958
0:12:56 > 0:12:58with another character we can't name.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01Thanks very much. Now then, Ed.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04You're on 34, the high-scorers
0:13:04 > 0:13:06remain Neil and Gary on 103.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09If you can score 68 or less you are into the next round.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11I'm torn between the safe option
0:13:11 > 0:13:15and a risky one, but I think,
0:13:15 > 0:13:19considering all, I'm going to have to go for Wilma Flintstone.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Wilma Flintstone, says Ed,
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Wilma Flintstone. There is your red line,
0:13:25 > 0:13:28below that red line you go through to the next round.
0:13:28 > 0:13:29Wilma Flintstone.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31How many people said it?
0:13:34 > 0:13:35You've done it.
0:13:40 > 0:13:4351, taking your total up to 85.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Yes, Pebble Flintstone's mum, Wilma Flintstone.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Rhian, the last throw of the dice for this round.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53You're on 37, the high-scorers are still Neil and Gary
0:13:53 > 0:13:55on 103.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59You have to score 65 or less to stay in the game.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01Is this a good round for you?
0:14:01 > 0:14:04It wasn't when you said Hanna-Barbera,
0:14:04 > 0:14:06but when the picture came up it got better.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08OK.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12But I still only really know the popular ones.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16So, I know Top Cat, Yogi Bear, Scooby-Doo, obviously.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19But I think I'm going to go for...
0:14:19 > 0:14:22Bamm-Bamm Rubble.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25Bamm-Bamm Rubble.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28Bamm-Bamm Rubble.
0:14:28 > 0:14:33There is your red line, if you get below that red line you are through to the next round.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Let's see if it's right and how many people said it. Bamm-Bamm Rubble.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41It's right.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43And you are through to the next round.
0:14:45 > 0:14:4940 takes your total up to 77.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Well played, all those other ones you mentioned
0:14:52 > 0:14:55would have scored too many points and knocked you out.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57So, Bamm-Bamm Rubble was a very good answer.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Now, Gary, just to clear yours up,
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Judy Jetson is the daughter,
0:15:02 > 0:15:06I think the only Jetson who's not there, cos Jane Jetson is there.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10Jane Jetson would have scored you 1 point, George Jetson 5 points,
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Astro the dog from the Jetsons would have scored you 1 point, as well.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16But no Judy. Sorry about that.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18There's only one pointless answer up there at all
0:15:18 > 0:15:21from Quick Draw McGraw, it's Doggie Daddy,
0:15:21 > 0:15:24would have been a pointless answer.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28Then Johnny Quest would have scored you 1. Then Huckleberry Hound on 13.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Other ones up there, Dino from the Flintstones,
0:15:31 > 0:15:34would have scored you 16, and the top answers,
0:15:34 > 0:15:40Barney Rubble would have scored 64, Top Cat 76, Fred Flintstone 79,
0:15:40 > 0:15:43Yogi Bear 83, so right at the top of the pile,
0:15:43 > 0:15:4584, Scooby Doo.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48OK, thanks very much, Richard.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50So, at the end of the first round the pair with the losing score
0:15:50 > 0:15:53I'm afraid is Neil and Gary.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57And, Gary, you could so easily have been the lowest-scorers there.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Judy...I did know some of the other ones.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Did you know any of the other Jetsons?
0:16:01 > 0:16:04I knew George Jetson, it was a toss-up between George and Judy...
0:16:04 > 0:16:05George was only 1 point.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07- 5.- Oh, it was 5.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Oh, well. Neil, Gary,
0:16:09 > 0:16:11it's been great having you on the show,
0:16:11 > 0:16:13I'm sorry we have to say goodbye so soon, but thank you for playing.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Great contestants.
0:16:15 > 0:16:16Thank you.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21But for the remaining three pairs it's now time for Round Two.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31Sadly, at the end of this round another pair will be leaving us,
0:16:31 > 0:16:33which pair is it going to be?
0:16:33 > 0:16:37John and Val, once again, showing their absolute quality there,
0:16:37 > 0:16:38our lowest-scorers.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42Rhian and Richeldis, you did very well there.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44What was the percentage of those you knew?
0:16:44 > 0:16:47Um, 70-ish?
0:16:47 > 0:16:49That's pretty good.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51I knew all the Jetsons as well but I couldn't think...
0:16:51 > 0:16:55- How did you know all that?- Were they still on telly when you were young?
0:16:55 > 0:16:59- A bit, yeah.- Yeah.- I loved Top Cat, and Yogi Bear.- Ah, very good.
0:16:59 > 0:17:04OK, very good luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two is...
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Can you decide who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Our question concerns...
0:17:23 > 0:17:24Richard.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27On each pass I'm going to give you the name of six famous sporting venues,
0:17:27 > 0:17:30you just have to tell me in which town or city they are situated.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Give us a nice obscure answer,
0:17:32 > 0:17:36you score fewer points, give us an incorrect answer, that'll be 100 points.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38There will be 12 in all to have a go at home.
0:17:39 > 0:17:44We are looking for the cities in which these famous sporting venues are to be found.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46And we have got...
0:17:56 > 0:17:58I will read all those one last time.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12There we are. Six sporting venues.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14We are looking for the six cities in which you would find them.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18- Now then, Rhian.- Yes.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22I don't know any of them.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25OK.
0:18:25 > 0:18:30I'm going to have a crack at Stade Roland Garros.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34Cos it sounds a bit Spanish,
0:18:34 > 0:18:37I'm going to go for Madrid.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Stade Roland Garros, Madrid says Rhian.
0:18:39 > 0:18:44Let's see if that's right and if it is then let's see how many of our 100 people said Madrid.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49No, bad luck, Rhian.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,
0:18:51 > 0:18:54which means you score the maximum of 100 points. I'm sorry.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Richard.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00Sorry, Rhian, give you the correct answer at the end of the pass.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03Now then, Sarah. That's a lovely smile, I hope that means
0:19:03 > 0:19:05you're very confident and you know all these answers.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08I'm very, well, mildly confident I know one answer,
0:19:08 > 0:19:13so I'm going to say Madison Square Garden and say New York.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15New York, says Sarah.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19Let's see if that's right and if it is then let's see how many people knew New York.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23Absolutely right.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30It's a whole lot better than 100 though. 59.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Home of the New York Knicks and lots of events.
0:19:33 > 0:19:38It's the fourth Madison Square Gardens that's been on that venue. PT Barnum opened the first one.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42- Did he? I didn't know that.- Yeah. - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45Now then, Val. We are looking for the cities
0:19:45 > 0:19:48in which you would find these famous sporting venues.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50The board is yours,
0:19:50 > 0:19:51talk us through it.
0:19:51 > 0:19:56I'm afraid I can't, not certain of any of them that are left.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01But Stade Roland Garros, I'm going to say Paris.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05Paris for Stade Roland Garros.
0:20:05 > 0:20:09Let's see if that's right and if it is then let's see how many people knew that answer. Paris.
0:20:11 > 0:20:12It's right.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Val does it again.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27Fabulous answer, the lowest answer of the round so far. Paris.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31- Well done, Val, she never puts a foot wrong, does she?- Never.
0:20:31 > 0:20:32The Stade Roland Garros,
0:20:32 > 0:20:36the clay court stadium in Paris. It's on Rue Avenue Gordon Bennett.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- No!- Yeah.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44- Let's fill in the rest of the board. Croke Park?- I think that's Dublin.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48It is Dublin, national stadium of the Gaelic Athletic Association.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51That would have scored you 20. The Maracana?
0:20:51 > 0:20:54I'd be tempted to say, er...
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Rio.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Built for the 1950 World Cup. In Rio.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Absolutely right, would have scored you 3 points.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03The Gabba, you probably know that.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05- Is Brisbane.- Brisbane.
0:21:05 > 0:21:06The cricket ground, would have scored 6,
0:21:06 > 0:21:08and the best answer on the board, Cresta Run.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10I don't know...
0:21:10 > 0:21:13- It's in St Moritz, 2 points so well done if you said that.- St Moritz.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Very good. We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Val and John looking spectacular once again
0:21:20 > 0:21:23on 15, lovely low score there,
0:21:23 > 0:21:27then we scoot up to 59 where we find Sarah and Ed,
0:21:27 > 0:21:31and then all the way up to 100 where we find Rhian and Richeldis.
0:21:31 > 0:21:34Richeldis, we're going to rely on you to find a really
0:21:34 > 0:21:38low-scoring answer. Something like Cresta Run on the next pass.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39Definitely.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42We hope that's enough to get you through to the next round.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Good luck. We're going to come back down the line,
0:21:44 > 0:21:46can the second players please step up to the podium?
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Let's put six more sporting venues on the board and here they are.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54We have got...
0:22:06 > 0:22:08I'll read those all one last time...
0:22:17 > 0:22:20There we are, remember, we are looking for the cities
0:22:20 > 0:22:22in which you would find these sporting venues,
0:22:22 > 0:22:26you're trying to find the one the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:22:26 > 0:22:31Now, John. Richeldis and Rhian are on 100 points, you are on 15,
0:22:31 > 0:22:36so a score of 84 or less will see you through to the head-to-head.
0:22:36 > 0:22:42I think the Louisiana Superdome is in New Orleans.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45New Orleans, say John, for the Louisiana Superdome.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47There is your red line,
0:22:47 > 0:22:50if you come below that red line you are in the head-to-head.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:22:56 > 0:22:57Absolutely right, and you are through.
0:23:03 > 0:23:04Very well done, indeed. 7.
0:23:07 > 0:23:107 takes your total up to 22. Richard.
0:23:10 > 0:23:14- John's good as well, isn't he?- He is good.- That's the secret to being married for 52 years.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Just both be awesome all the time.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18- Yeah.- Simple when you know how.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Home to the New Orleans Saints, the NFL team,
0:23:21 > 0:23:24it's the largest fixed-dome structure in the world.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27- Thank you.- There it is.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29So many things I didn't know, that's brilliant.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Ed, you're on 59.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35The highest scorers are still Richeldis and Rhian on 100.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39If you can score 40 or less you are through to the next round.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43So in which cities would you find these sporting venues?
0:23:43 > 0:23:45Yes, I think I'm going to go for...
0:23:46 > 0:23:48..um, to try and make sure
0:23:48 > 0:23:51I'll go for Ellis Park Stadium
0:23:51 > 0:23:53which is in Johannesburg.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57Ellis Park Stadium, Johannesburg, you are saying.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00Ellis Park Stadium, Johannesburg.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Here's your red line, if you get below that you're in the head-to-head.
0:24:03 > 0:24:07Let's see if it's right and if it is let's see how many of our 100 said it. Johannesburg.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Absolutely right, Ed.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18And you are through to the next round.
0:24:18 > 0:24:193.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27That takes your total to 62, very good indeed.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Good answer, Ed, primarily known as a rugby venue,
0:24:29 > 0:24:33hosted the 1995 Rugby World Cup final that South Africa won.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35Now then. Richeldis, I'm afraid I have bad news,
0:24:35 > 0:24:39which is even before you've given your answer you are the highest scorers on a 100,
0:24:39 > 0:24:42so you will be leaving us at the end of this round.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44However, have some fun with this board.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47I haven't a clue.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49On any of them?
0:24:49 > 0:24:52At least I can blame her for going out. Absolutely clueless.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55- Do you want to do your blaming of Rhian now?- It's your fault.- Quickly.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57LAUGHTER
0:24:57 > 0:25:01- OK, got that all out your system? - No, she'll get it later.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06Murrayfield,
0:25:06 > 0:25:08I will go for Glasgow.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12Let's see. Murrayfield. Is it in Glasgow? And if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16There's no red line for you, I'm afraid, cos you're already the highest scorers.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Is it right, how many people said it?
0:25:22 > 0:25:25Bad luck, Richeldis, I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer
0:25:25 > 0:25:28which means you also score the maximum of 100 points.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Rhian, you can speak at will.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33- I have no words. - HE LAUGHS
0:25:33 > 0:25:35I know two on this board.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39That takes your total up to 200, bad luck.
0:25:39 > 0:25:44- Richard.- Not a million miles away, it is the home of Scottish Rugby but it's in Edinburgh, I'm afraid.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46I was going to go for that. Oh, well.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48It would have scored you 31 points.
0:25:49 > 0:25:53Let's go through the rest. The National Stadium aka The Bird's Nest.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56- Beijing.- Beijing. Absolutely right. Would have scored 12.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59- Millennium Stadium?- Cardiff. - Cardiff. Absolutely.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02It's a wonderful stadium, the Millennium Stadium. 53 points.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04And Eden Gardens is a pointless answer.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09It's the second biggest cricket ground in the world,
0:26:09 > 0:26:10after the MCG, in Kolkata.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16Pointless, so very well done if you said that. Very good answer.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18- Is Kolkata what we used to call Calcutta?- Yes.
0:26:20 > 0:26:24- Wow, when did they do that?- It was in 1999 it changed its name.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26Oh, right, interesting. I'm ear to the ground.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29I just thought people were saying it in a funny voice.
0:26:29 > 0:26:34- Col-catt-a. - LAUGHTER
0:26:34 > 0:26:35Well, OK, thank you very much, Richard.
0:26:35 > 0:26:39So, at the end of Round Two, the losing pair with the highest score
0:26:39 > 0:26:41I'm afraid is Richeldis and Rhian.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43But what a score!
0:26:43 > 0:26:47But, do you know what, this happens so often, that actually had you gone
0:26:47 > 0:26:49the other way round, you might still be in with
0:26:49 > 0:26:50a really good chance because Rhian,
0:26:50 > 0:26:52you knew two on that board, didn't you?
0:26:52 > 0:26:56- Yeah, I'm surprised Beijing was so low, actually.- I know.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59- I would have avoided it. - Yes, well there you are.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02Richeldis, did you know anything on the previous board?
0:27:02 > 0:27:06- No.- OK, oh well, there we are. Anyway, it's been lovely having you on the show.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08We will have you back on the show next time
0:27:08 > 0:27:10and we'll look forward to that very much,
0:27:10 > 0:27:12but thank you very much for playing, Richeldis and Rhian.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14APPLAUSE
0:27:16 > 0:27:18But for the remaining two pairs things will get
0:27:18 > 0:27:20even more exciting as we enter the head-to-head.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31Congratulations, John and Val, Sarah and Ed, you're now only one round
0:27:31 > 0:27:35from the final and a chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands at...
0:27:37 > 0:27:40APPLAUSE
0:27:40 > 0:27:43You are now going to go head-to-head and the first pair to win
0:27:43 > 0:27:45two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:27:45 > 0:27:49The great news is you are now allowed to confer.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53Well, John and Val, you've done it again, there you are,
0:27:53 > 0:27:56our lowest scoring couple in the head-to-head round.
0:27:56 > 0:28:02Sarah and Ed, again pretty consistent scoring, not bad at all.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06I mean, in the rankings of today, Ed, I would certainly say you were in the top four.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09LAUGHTER
0:28:09 > 0:28:13Anything can happen now, suddenly all bets are off because you can now confer.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16You can pool your knowledge. It's very exciting.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19- Let's play the head-to-head. - APPLAUSE
0:28:23 > 0:28:26OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:28:30 > 0:28:32- Animal Proverbs. Richard.- Yes, we're going to show you
0:28:32 > 0:28:36five proverbs all listed in the Oxford Dictionary of Proverbs.
0:28:36 > 0:28:39Each one is missing a word, and that word is the name of an animal.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42Can you fill these in, please, and pick the most obscure?
0:28:42 > 0:28:45OK. Thanks very much. Let's reveal our five animal proverbs.
0:28:45 > 0:28:47And here they are, we have got...
0:29:05 > 0:29:07I'll read those all one last time.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23John and Val, you've played best throughout the show so far so you get to go first.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26THEY CONFER
0:29:37 > 0:29:41We'll go for the top one. A Cat May Look At A King.
0:29:41 > 0:29:46A Cat May Look At A King, say John and Val, A Cat May Look At A King.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48Now then, Sarah and Ed, the board is yours, talk us through it.
0:29:48 > 0:29:50Well, we think we know a couple.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56I know one but it's not an animal so I'm not going to say that.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02- I think we're going to have to go for the last one.- Yup, I think so.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05Yeah. It's The Last Straw That Breaks The Camel's Back.
0:30:05 > 0:30:07The camel's back.
0:30:07 > 0:30:08OK, we have a cat in the first one
0:30:08 > 0:30:10and a camel in the last.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13John and Val have said cat, let's see if that's right,
0:30:13 > 0:30:15and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said cat.
0:30:17 > 0:30:18It's right.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27APPLAUSE
0:30:27 > 0:30:2821 for a cat.
0:30:30 > 0:30:33Sarah and Ed, you said camel, let's see if camel is right,
0:30:33 > 0:30:35and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said camel.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39Absolutely right. Ooh!
0:30:40 > 0:30:4189.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43APPLAUSE
0:30:44 > 0:30:49So, John and Val, after one question, you are ahead 1-0.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52- Richard.- Yes, there's only one answer that would have beaten that score,
0:30:52 > 0:30:53let's go through all of them.
0:31:03 > 0:31:08The best answer on the board, it's not one I'd heard before, it's rather good.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11He Who Rides A Tiger Is Afraid To Dismount.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14- It's rather good, isn't it? - Yeah.- 6 points.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17If you embark on a dangerous or troublesome venture, best see it through to the end.
0:31:19 > 0:31:21- Very good.- Good, isn't it? - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24OK, so here is the second question.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26Sarah and Ed, you have to win this question to stay in the game.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28Here it comes. It concerns...
0:31:31 > 0:31:34The Regency, Richard.
0:31:34 > 0:31:38Yeah, we're going to give you five clues to facts about the Regency of Prince George (1811-1820),
0:31:38 > 0:31:40can you give us the most obscure answer, please?
0:31:40 > 0:31:42OK, thanks very much.
0:31:42 > 0:31:46Let's reveal our five clues to facts about the Regency and here they are. We have got...
0:32:02 > 0:32:05I'll read all of those again.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21There we are, five clues to facts about the Regency.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26- Sarah and Ed, you go first. - Oh, right, OK.
0:32:29 > 0:32:31THEY CONFER
0:32:31 > 0:32:34Erm, the Parliament bought this Lord's marbles
0:32:34 > 0:32:36for the British Museum and that's Elgin.
0:32:36 > 0:32:40Elgin, you are saying. Elgin.
0:32:40 > 0:32:44John and Val, the board is yours, talk us through it.
0:32:44 > 0:32:47We agree with the one that they said,
0:32:47 > 0:32:49we think the Prime Minister
0:32:49 > 0:32:52who was assassinated may have been Spencer Perceval,
0:32:52 > 0:32:54we know Beau Brummell,
0:32:54 > 0:32:58and it was probably the Duke of Wellington at Waterloo,
0:32:58 > 0:33:02but Val will tell you who Prince George's unlawful wife was.
0:33:02 > 0:33:08- I believe she was Maria Fitzherbert. - Maria Fitzherbert.
0:33:08 > 0:33:13OK, so we have Elgin versus Maria Fitzherbert.
0:33:13 > 0:33:17Sarah and Ed, this is the question you have to win to stay in the game.
0:33:19 > 0:33:20Good luck. Elgin, you are saying.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24Let's see if it's right, and if it is let's see how many of our 100 said Elgin.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27It's absolutely right.
0:33:29 > 0:33:31- Oh.- 43.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33APPLAUSE
0:33:33 > 0:33:3743 for Elgin. John and Val have given us Maria Fitzherbert.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:33:40 > 0:33:45let's see how many of our 100 people said it. If you win this question, you go straight though to the final.
0:33:47 > 0:33:48It is right.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53And you are through to the final.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Oh, look at that!
0:33:56 > 0:33:58APPLAUSE
0:33:58 > 0:34:01So nearly pointless as well. That's an excellent answer,
0:34:01 > 0:34:05Maria Fitzherbert beats Elgin, which means after only two questions
0:34:05 > 0:34:08you are through to the final 2-0. Very well done.
0:34:08 > 0:34:13And once again as so often before you've given us the best answer on the board there as well,
0:34:13 > 0:34:17you took us through the board perfectly, and every single answer
0:34:17 > 0:34:20you gave us would have won the point. So let's fill in the ones you got...
0:34:33 > 0:34:36Maria Fitzherbert was the best answer on the board. Well done if you got all those at home.
0:34:37 > 0:34:43Thanks very much, Richard. So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head is Sarah and Ed.
0:34:45 > 0:34:48Dear, oh dear. Performed very solidly throughout the show
0:34:48 > 0:34:52- but then you came up against John and Val in the head-to-head.- Yes.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55They just know stuff.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59And they have very good judgement when it comes to picking low scoring answers. Amazing.
0:34:59 > 0:35:04However, you can take all this away with you, think about it and we will see you next time
0:35:04 > 0:35:08when you can bring all the tactics you've learned at the knee of John and Val to bear
0:35:08 > 0:35:09and maybe you will triumph, too.
0:35:09 > 0:35:13Thanks very much for playing meanwhile, Sarah and Ed, fantastic competitors.
0:35:17 > 0:35:21But for John and Val it's now time for our Pointless Final.
0:35:27 > 0:35:31Well, congratulations, John and Val, you've seen off all the competition,
0:35:31 > 0:35:33and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:42 > 0:35:45and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at...
0:35:49 > 0:35:53Well, both of your appearances on Pointless have been pretty triumphant.
0:35:53 > 0:35:58You made pretty quick work of getting through to the head-to-head in each case
0:35:58 > 0:36:01and here you are, richly, deservedly in the final.
0:36:01 > 0:36:03Now the rules are very simple,
0:36:03 > 0:36:06to win that money all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08We haven't had any pointless answers today, you only have
0:36:08 > 0:36:11to find one now and you will go home with that money.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14Firstly you've got to choose a category from these five options. They are...
0:36:21 > 0:36:25- What do you think?- OK, Islands if you like.- Islands is OK.
0:36:25 > 0:36:30- Crime Writers. What about Artists? - Shall we go with Artists?
0:36:32 > 0:36:36- Crime Writers would put it very much in my court, wouldn't it? - What about Islands then?
0:36:37 > 0:36:40- Islands, yes.- Are you sure?- Yes. You know loads of Geography.- Right.
0:36:42 > 0:36:43We'll go for Islands.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46Islands it is. OK, let's find out what the question is, here it comes.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:36:49 > 0:36:55to name as many of the Channel Islands and The Isles Of Scilly as they could.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57OK, Richard.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00Yeah, we're looking for the names of any of the Channel Islands or Isles of Scilly
0:37:00 > 0:37:04that have a permanent human population, please. We will accept the names of islands
0:37:04 > 0:37:08that are dependencies of other Channel Islands as long as they have permanent residents.
0:37:08 > 0:37:11We are not counting islands that are under French jurisdiction or islands
0:37:11 > 0:37:14such as Jethou that are privately leased to one individual.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17So we're looking for the names of any of the Channel Islands or the Isles of Scilly.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19- Very, very best of luck.- Thank you.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22OK, thanks very much, you now have up to one minute to come up with
0:37:22 > 0:37:25three answers and all you need to win that £2,000 is for just
0:37:25 > 0:37:27one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29Are you ready?
0:37:29 > 0:37:32- Yes.- OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34There they are, your time starts now.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36Right, you know all the Scilly Isles.
0:37:36 > 0:37:40The Scilly Isles. I think the Channel Islands will be more...
0:37:40 > 0:37:44- That would be too easy.- I think you're looking for...
0:37:44 > 0:37:48- The Scilly Isles.- St Martin's...- St Agnes...- Tresco, after that I'm stuck, do you know any more?- No.
0:37:51 > 0:37:57- Go back to the Channel Islands. - Sark, Alderney.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00Alderney might be one.
0:38:00 > 0:38:03Which one of the others do you want to leave out for Alderney?
0:38:03 > 0:38:06What do you think?
0:38:06 > 0:38:08I don't know. I think we might be better off staying with the three.
0:38:08 > 0:38:15- With the three Scilly Isles?- Yes. St Martin's, St Agnes and Tresco.
0:38:17 > 0:38:22- How much longer have we got? - We've still got 15 seconds.- Right, which do you think would be...
0:38:22 > 0:38:27- Erm.- Ten seconds.- I think St Agnes would be too obscure,
0:38:27 > 0:38:29then St Martin's, then Tresco.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31OK, you've settled on your three answers, very good.
0:38:31 > 0:38:32OK, well,
0:38:32 > 0:38:37we were looking for islands in the Channel Islands or the Scilly Isles.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39I now need your three answers.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41We've chosen Tresco...
0:38:41 > 0:38:46- Tresco.- St Martin's.- St Martin's. - And St Agnes.- And St Agnes.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49Of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:49 > 0:38:53- We think St Agnes.- St Agnes we'll put last?- Yes.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55Which should we put first? Your least likely.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57- Tresco. - OK, Tresco first. Brilliant.
0:38:57 > 0:39:01We'll put them up on the board in that order. And here they are, we have got...
0:39:06 > 0:39:10OK, so we were looking for islands in the Channel Islands and the Scilly Isles.
0:39:11 > 0:39:15Tresco you said was your least confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:39:15 > 0:39:18You only have to find one pointless answer to win that jackpot of £2,000.
0:39:19 > 0:39:23What would you do with your £2,000 winnings, John?
0:39:23 > 0:39:26I think we'd possibly have a holiday...
0:39:26 > 0:39:27and some treats for the family.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30- Very good. Val, anything else? - Go to the Scilly Isles!
0:39:32 > 0:39:35Perfect. OK, well, this for £2,000.
0:39:35 > 0:39:38Let's see how many people said Tresco.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43It's absolutely right.
0:39:43 > 0:39:47Down it goes, if it goes all the way down to 0 of course you'll be
0:39:47 > 0:39:49leaving here immediately with £2,000.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52Down it goes into the teens, into single figures...
0:39:52 > 0:39:569. OK. Tresco.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02So unfortunately not a pointless answer,
0:40:02 > 0:40:05- but Tresco is probably the most obvious of the three.- Yes.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08OK. Only two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11We were looking for islands in the Channel Islands or the Scilly Isles,
0:40:11 > 0:40:16let's hope nobody said your next answer, St Martin's. This has to be right, obviously,
0:40:16 > 0:40:20and it has to be pointless if you're to win that jackpot of £2,000.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22So let's see how many people said St Martin's.
0:40:26 > 0:40:27It's right.
0:40:29 > 0:40:33So here we go, Tresco took us down just into single figures
0:40:33 > 0:40:35stopping on 9. St Martin's.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37Now going down into single figures.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39If it stops at 0 you leave here with £2,000.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42- It stops on 2. - APPLAUSE
0:40:48 > 0:40:49That stops on 2.
0:40:49 > 0:40:53Would you say that St Agnes was less well known than St Martin's?
0:40:53 > 0:40:55- I think so.- Well this is perfect, then.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58- On paper.- Let's hope. Keep our fingers tightly crossed.
0:40:58 > 0:41:02You only have one more chance to win today's jackpot, everything is now riding on St Agnes.
0:41:02 > 0:41:06We're looking for islands in the Channel Islands and the Scilly Isles.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08Your third and final answer,
0:41:08 > 0:41:12your most confident shot at a pointless answer was St Agnes.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15It has to be right, it has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot of £2,000.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18St Agnes, how many people said it? Good luck.
0:41:22 > 0:41:24Well, it's right.
0:41:24 > 0:41:26Tresco took us down to 9.
0:41:26 > 0:41:30St Martin's then took us down to 2, within touching
0:41:30 > 0:41:32distance of a pointless answer,
0:41:32 > 0:41:34St Agnes still going down. Down it goes.
0:41:34 > 0:41:35Yes! Very well done!
0:41:35 > 0:41:37CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Brilliant.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44Thank you very much.
0:41:44 > 0:41:48Very well done indeed, what a great joint effort there.
0:41:48 > 0:41:54Well congratulations, St Agnes was a pointless answer which means you go home with the jackpot of £2,000.
0:41:54 > 0:41:57APPLAUSE
0:41:57 > 0:41:59Very well done, indeed.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04Well played, Val and John, that's terrific, rarely has a jackpot win been so well deserved.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06You've played so well across two shows, terrific.
0:42:06 > 0:42:09You gave us the second, third and fourth largest Isles of Scilly
0:42:09 > 0:42:13in order there as well, with the largest being St Mary's which would have scored you 15.
0:42:13 > 0:42:17There's only one pub on the whole of St Agnes, The Turk's Head.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20I suggest you go there with some of your money and spend it.
0:42:20 > 0:42:24Let's take a look at the pointless answers, there are only three so you did very well to get one.
0:42:27 > 0:42:31The only Channel Island, Brecqhou, owned by the Barclay brothers, that was a pointless answer,
0:42:31 > 0:42:34Bryher is the smallest of the inhabited isles of Scilly -
0:42:34 > 0:42:37was a pointless answer, and St Agnes as well which has won you the £2,000.
0:42:37 > 0:42:40Very well done if you said any of those three at home.
0:42:40 > 0:42:43Well, thanks once again to our winning players,
0:42:43 > 0:42:46John and Val, who go away with today's jackpot of £2,000.
0:42:46 > 0:42:51- APPLAUSE - Well done.
0:42:53 > 0:42:56Join us next time as we put more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:42:56 > 0:42:58- So it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
