0:00:23 > 0:00:27Thank you very much indeed! Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:27 > 0:00:29the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31Let's meet today's players.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38Now, first we welcome back Lauren and Sarah.
0:00:38 > 0:00:39You were on the show last time.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Everyone, of course, gets two chances
0:00:41 > 0:00:43to reach the Pointless final.
0:00:43 > 0:00:44This is your second chance.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Remind us, Lauren, what happened last time.
0:00:47 > 0:00:53We got a question about sitcoms on the BBC, and we only got 15,
0:00:53 > 0:00:56which normally would be quite good,
0:00:56 > 0:00:58but we went out the first round, so...
0:00:58 > 0:01:00- It was a very low high score.- Yeah.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02But, still. The Vicar Of Dibley.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05- You only went and picked a sitcom that everyone loves.- I know!
0:01:05 > 0:01:08- It's my favourite, as well. - Yeah, great sitcom.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12Anyway, what are you hoping is going to come up today? Sarah?
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Probably films again, because I love my movies.
0:01:15 > 0:01:21And last year I managed to go to LA, the home of movies.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24I loved it there, and we managed to see Will Smith filming
0:01:24 > 0:01:25a scene from one of his movies.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- No!- Yeah, it was one of the highlights of my life.
0:01:28 > 0:01:29Was it like a studio tour?
0:01:29 > 0:01:32No, we were just by the stars on the Hollywood walkway,
0:01:32 > 0:01:36we were just there to see it, and they were filming a scene.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39- So we were amazed, it was really good.- You were almost in a film.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Yeah!
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Lovely to have you back on the show. Very, very best of luck.
0:01:44 > 0:01:48Next, we welcome Sarah and Wendy. How do you two know each other?
0:01:48 > 0:01:50- We're sisters. - And where are you from, Sarah?
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- I'm from Malvern in Worcestershire.- Wendy?
0:01:53 > 0:01:56- I'm from Stafford, in the West Midlands.- Very good indeed.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Wendy, what do you hope will come up today on Pointless? What would be good for you?
0:02:00 > 0:02:03One of our favourite joint topics is The Sound Of Music,
0:02:03 > 0:02:07so we'd like musicals, but particularly The Sound Of Music.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11- OK.- We have dressed up in the past to go to a sing-along.- Have you?
0:02:11 > 0:02:14What do you generally go as? Or does it change?
0:02:14 > 0:02:19Last time, we went as brown paper packages tied up with string.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21LAUGHTER
0:02:21 > 0:02:24- That's hilarious.- Just us and our husbands and our children.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Were you all tied together with string, or were you individually tied?
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- Separate packages. - Individually wrapped?- Individual.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Best of luck, Sarah and Wendy. Welcome to Pointless.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34Great to have you here.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38Next, we welcome Jonathan and Steve. How do you two know each other?
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Through football, really. We used to play football together.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Jonathan, what do you like to get up to?
0:02:43 > 0:02:47In a previous life, when I was younger, I was very much interested
0:02:47 > 0:02:51in watching The Fall Guy, especially Colt Seavers, and all that.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53He inspired me to become a stuntman.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55No! You were a stuntman?
0:02:55 > 0:02:57- Yeah, trained in Australia. - For how long?
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Not very long. I did the training in Australia to get qualified
0:02:59 > 0:03:02and struggled to find work, unfortunately, in Hollywood.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04- But at least I gave it a shot. - But you went out there.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08- Yeah, I gave it a go.- You didn't leave it with a limp or anything?
0:03:08 > 0:03:11- No, just a bad back.- Oh, did you? I'm sorry to hear that.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Steve, have you had a former life? What were you?
0:03:13 > 0:03:16I was fortunate to play professional rugby league
0:03:16 > 0:03:18for Hull Kingston Rovers.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21- Did you?- The red and whites, not the...- Black and whites.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24- Black and whites.- Anyway, very best of luck, Jonathan and Steve.
0:03:24 > 0:03:25- Great to have you here.- Thanks.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27We also welcome back Dougie and Kath.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30You were on the show last time as well. Kath, tell us what happened.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32I got an answer very wrong.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34- It was very hard.- It was difficult.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37For me, it was.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38It had to be towns and cities in France
0:03:38 > 0:03:40and you gave us the answer Monte Carlo.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Yes.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Which I have since learnt is not in France.
0:03:45 > 0:03:46- Dougie.- Hello.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49What's going to happen today that's going to be brilliant?
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Hopefully, they'll be a round in which they ask
0:03:51 > 0:03:53about Partick Thistle and its history.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Because I think I'd do quite well in that.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58- OK.- Well, it is called Pointless.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01LAUGHTER
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Very best of luck, Dougie and Kath. Great to have you back on the show.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08We'll find out more about all of you during the show.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10There's only one person left for me to introduce.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13He's rounded up the questions and answers like an obscurity shepherd.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16He is my Pointless friend. He's Richard.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Hiya. Hello. APPLAUSE
0:04:24 > 0:04:26- Afternoon.- Good afternoon to you.
0:04:26 > 0:04:30Our first two rounds today are absolute classic,
0:04:30 > 0:04:32old-school Pointless.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35I'd say, everyone at home, start your stretching exercises now.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37The first two rounds, all doable,
0:04:37 > 0:04:41but they'll start taxing the grey matter a little bit.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46Good rounds, though. Good, fair rounds.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47Thanks, Richard.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49All of our questions on Pointless have been put
0:04:49 > 0:04:50to 100 people before the show.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53In order to get to the final round and be in with a chance of winning
0:04:53 > 0:04:55the jackpot, our contestants need to find
0:04:55 > 0:04:57the obscure answers that those 100 people didn't get.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59The fewer of the 100 people who knew the answer,
0:04:59 > 0:05:01the fewer points they'll score.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04What everyone is trying to do is find a pointless answer,
0:05:04 > 0:05:05an answer none of our 100 people gave.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09Each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Rebecca and Ben won the jackpot last time,
0:05:11 > 0:05:13so today's jackpot starts off at...
0:05:15 > 0:05:19Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26In this first round, you must each give me one answer.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28You can't confer with your partner.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32Whichever pair has the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36Try and make sure that's not you. Our first category today is....
0:05:38 > 0:05:42Can you all decide in your pairs who's going first, who's second?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45You. I'm clueless.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Our question concerns...
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Richard.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01We're going to show you seven pairs of films.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04We need you to tell us the name of the actor or actress who won
0:06:04 > 0:06:07an Oscar for each of those films, please.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10There'll be seven on each pass, 14 in all.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11See how many of those you can get at home.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Thank you very much.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Lauren and Sarah, you all drew lots before the show,
0:06:15 > 0:06:17and today you're going first.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22We're looking for the actors who won Oscars for these pairs of films.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23We have got...
0:06:41 > 0:06:43I'll read them one more time.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06- Lauren. How's that looking to you? - Not very good.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08So it doesn't really matter.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10I was worried that I was going first, but I don't think
0:07:10 > 0:07:13it really matters, cos I don't think I know any of them.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18OK...I'm going to go for...
0:07:18 > 0:07:24Tom Cruise with Kramer Vs Kramer and Rain Man?
0:07:25 > 0:07:28OK. Tom Cruise, for Kramer Vs Kramer and Rain Man.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Tom Cruise, says Lauren. Let's see if that's right.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32If so, how many people knew that answer?
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Bad luck, Lauren. I'm sorry.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Unfortunately, not the right answer.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43You score the maximum of 100 points.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46It may very well not be the last 100-point score of this round.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Sarah.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51I know the answer to the first one, but I can only see their face
0:07:51 > 0:07:52and not their name.
0:07:52 > 0:07:58I'll go for Dustin Hoffman in Kramer vs Kramer, please.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Dustin Hoffman, Kramer vs Kramer and Rain Man. OK.
0:08:01 > 0:08:02Let's see if that's right.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Let's see how many people knew that answer.
0:08:06 > 0:08:07It's right.
0:08:10 > 0:08:1144.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14APPLAUSE
0:08:14 > 0:08:1644 for Dustin Hoffman.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Yes, won Best Actor for both of those films.
0:08:19 > 0:08:211979 and 1988.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23Jonathan.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27When you first said the Oscars, I was panicking, I must admit.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31But now I've seen the questions, I think I've got a good punt.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35There's one or two I know, but I'm not 100% convinced.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38I'll still go for On The Waterfront and The Godfather.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42- I think that was Marlon Brando. - Marlon Brando, you say.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43Let's see if that's right.
0:08:43 > 0:08:47If it is, let's see how many people knew that answer. Marlon Brando.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Yes, of course.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56Wow, 20. Good score.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Yes, a very good start. Again, won Best Actor for both of those films.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Now, Dougie. You're the last person to have this board.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10You can talk us through it, if you like.
0:09:10 > 0:09:15There's probably about three of them I'm fairly certain of,
0:09:15 > 0:09:17and two of those have gone.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Which really just leaves me one that I'm confident on.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23And that's The Accused and The Silence Of The Lambs -
0:09:23 > 0:09:25that, I think, is Jodie Foster.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Jodie Foster, you are saying,
0:09:27 > 0:09:28for The Accused and Silence Of The Lambs.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people knew that answer?
0:09:35 > 0:09:36Absolutely right.
0:09:40 > 0:09:4221.
0:09:44 > 0:09:45A good answer, a good score.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Yes, very well played.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51She won Best Actress for both of those films,
0:09:51 > 0:09:53The Accused in '89 and Silence Of The Lambs in '92.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57- Very good.- Let's take a look at the rest of the answers.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Top one there, French Connection and Unforgiven.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01- You can see his face, can you remember his name?- No.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04- Do you want to have a go at that? - Gene Hackman.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07Gene Hackman, absolutely right.
0:10:07 > 0:10:0813 points.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10- That's correct, is it?- Yes.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12If you had described his face in detail,
0:10:12 > 0:10:17- I would have accepted it as an answer.- I'll remember that next time!
0:10:17 > 0:10:18Glory and Training Day?
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Won Best Actor for Training Day - it's Denzel Washington.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24- Your hero.- My favourite. 4 points there.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Sergeant York and High Noon?
0:10:26 > 0:10:27I'll give you a clue.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30He's the only person to have ever won an acting Oscar
0:10:30 > 0:10:33with the first name Gary.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35- Gary Cooper?- Gary Cooper, absolutely right.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38Gary Oldman nearly joined him. 7 points for Gary Cooper.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41The Great Ziegfeld and The Good Earth is a pointless answer.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Very well done if you said Luise Rainer. A pointless answer.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Very, very good answer.
0:10:47 > 0:10:52She won those in 1936 and 1937.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55OK, well, we're halfway through the round, let's look at the scores.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Best score of the pass, Jonathan.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Jonathan and Steve looking very strong indeed.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03Then, we go up one point, where we find Dougie and Kath on 21.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07Then, up to 44, where Sarah and Wendy currently reside.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11And then, I'm afraid, up to 100, Lauren and Sarah, where we find you.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15- A tough board.- We're hoping that Sarah might be OK for the next one.
0:11:15 > 0:11:16Sarah, you have said Film.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19You said it specifically, so...
0:11:19 > 0:11:23Well, listen. You might well be forced to pick a low-scoring answer
0:11:23 > 0:11:26because of your position there, but maybe that that'll be a good thing.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28It might keep you in the game. Best of luck with that.
0:11:28 > 0:11:29We're going back down the line.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:11:35 > 0:11:38We've got seven more films on the board.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Seven more pairs of films, I should say. And here they are.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01I'll read them all one last time.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Remember, we are looking for the actors that won Oscars
0:12:20 > 0:12:21for these pairs of films.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24You are trying to find the one you think
0:12:24 > 0:12:26the fewest of our 100 people know.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Kath. 21, you are on.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32The high scorers at the moment are Sarah and Lauren on 100,
0:12:32 > 0:12:35which means a score of 78 or less will keep you in the game.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40I'll go for Sophie's Choice and The Iron Lady.
0:12:40 > 0:12:41Meryl Streep.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Meryl Streep, for Sophie's Choice and The Iron Lady.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Let's see if it's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49Here is your red line. Nice and high.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52Below that red line, you are safely in that second round.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Meryl Streep, how many people said it?
0:12:56 > 0:12:59It's right. And you are through to the next round. Well done, Kath.
0:13:01 > 0:13:0332.
0:13:03 > 0:13:04Takes your total up to 53.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Yes, well done, she won Best Actress for both of those films.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15- She's had 17 nominations in all.- Wow.
0:13:15 > 0:13:16Now, Steve.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18- Is this good for you, Steve?- No.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20No, not at all.
0:13:22 > 0:13:23Erm, I knew that one.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25The only other one I know is
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Forrest Gump and Philadelphia - Tom Hanks.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Forrest Gump, Philadelphia. Let's see if that's right.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Let's see how many people said it.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Here's your red line. Nice and high.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Below that red line, you're home and dry.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Yes, it's right. And yes, you're through.
0:13:40 > 0:13:4258. Just.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49- 58 takes your total up to 78. Richard.- Well done.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52He won Best Actor for those films in consecutive years.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55He was like the Luise Rainer of his day.
0:13:55 > 0:13:56Yeah. OK. Wendy.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Wendy, Wendy, Wendy.
0:13:58 > 0:13:59You are on 44.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02The high scorers remain Sarah and Lauren on 100.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04I'm pretty sure
0:14:04 > 0:14:06The Prime Of Miss Jean Brodie
0:14:06 > 0:14:09and California Suite - Maggie Smith?
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Maggie Smith. You want to be scoring 55 or less with this answer.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14You score less than 55,
0:14:14 > 0:14:16we say goodbye to Sarah and Lauren.
0:14:16 > 0:14:20Maggie Smith, is it right? How many people said it?
0:14:20 > 0:14:22There's your red line.
0:14:24 > 0:14:25It's right!
0:14:26 > 0:14:28And you are through to the next round.
0:14:30 > 0:14:3112!
0:14:33 > 0:14:3812 is our lowest score of the round so far, Wendy. Many congratulations.
0:14:38 > 0:14:3956 is your total.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42You're in the second round.
0:14:42 > 0:14:43That's a very good answer.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45She won Best Supporting for California Suite,
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Best Actress for The Prime Of Miss Jean Brodie.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50California Suite, she won her Oscar for playing an actress
0:14:50 > 0:14:52who's just lost out on an Oscar.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54- See what they did there! - It's nice, isn't it?
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Yeah, very nice. Very nice.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Sarah. Now, there's bad news.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Before you even give your answer,
0:15:02 > 0:15:04I'm afraid you are the high scorers. What do you think of the board?
0:15:04 > 0:15:06Is there anything left on there you know?
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Yes, I think I know three of them,
0:15:08 > 0:15:10and I could take a guess at one of them.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Talk us through them.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16I think The Godfather and Raging Bull is Robert De Niro.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21Tootsie and Blue Sky is Dustin Hoffman, maybe?
0:15:21 > 0:15:24Hannah And Her Sisters and The Cider House Rules, I'm not sure.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26I'd go with Michael Caine, maybe.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29But I'll go with My Left Foot
0:15:29 > 0:15:31and There Will Be Blood, with Daniel Day-Lewis.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34Daniel Day-Lewis, says Sarah, for My Left Foot and There Will be Blood.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Is that right? How many people said it?
0:15:36 > 0:15:39No red line, alas, for you, as I'm afraid
0:15:39 > 0:15:40you're already leaving us
0:15:40 > 0:15:42at the end of this round. Sorry.
0:15:44 > 0:15:45It's right.
0:15:52 > 0:15:5422. Not a bad score at all.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57It takes your total up to an unbeatable 122,
0:15:57 > 0:15:59I'm afraid, though. Richard.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01A good way to finish.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03I'm glad you got to show your knowledge there.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07He won Best Actor for those. Nearly 20 years apart, those two films.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Let's go through the rest of the board. You've got a couple of them.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13You're right about The Godfather and Raging Bull - Robert De Niro.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14Would have scored 27.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Right about Hannah And Her Sisters and The Cider House Rules -
0:16:17 > 0:16:19that was Michael Caine. That would have scored you 6.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21You're incorrect about Tootsie and Blue Sky.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Do you know that one?
0:16:23 > 0:16:27It's an actress. She won Best Supporting Actress for Tootsie
0:16:27 > 0:16:28and Best Actress for Blue Sky. Jessica Lange.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31- Oh, Jessica Lange. - Jessica Lange, 3 points.
0:16:31 > 0:16:32The best answer on the board.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34Very well done to anybody who got all 14 of those.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36That would have been very impressive.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Thanks very much, Richard.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40At the end of Round One, the losing pair
0:16:40 > 0:16:43with the highest score, I am sorry to say, is Sarah and Lauren.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45Yes. Tom Cruise
0:16:45 > 0:16:47not in Kramer Vs Kramer.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49That's what tripped you up.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52I'm not too good with my Oscars. Sorry, Sarah.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56- Did you know any of the others, though?- Yes, I did. Yeah.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58It's been lovely having you on the show.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01I'm sorry we've never seen more of you than just Round One,
0:17:01 > 0:17:03but it's been great having you here.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05- Thanks.- Thank you so much for playing.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19At the end of this round, another pair will be eliminated,
0:17:19 > 0:17:23to leave us with our two pairs for our head-to-head round.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27Very hard to call, but judging on that last round alone,
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Dougie and Kath were out in front.
0:17:29 > 0:17:30Also you're the returning pair,
0:17:30 > 0:17:33who statistically tend to do a little bit better.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35So I'd say you are probably the pair to beat.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Anyway, our category for Round Two today is...
0:17:40 > 0:17:44Can you decide in your pairs who is going to go first, who's second?
0:17:44 > 0:17:46And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52OK, let's find out what the question is.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:17:59 > 0:18:03..as they could. Richard.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07We're looking for any chemical element with a commonly-accepted name
0:18:07 > 0:18:09that begins with a vowel - A, E, I, O or U.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13We're going via the periodic table as listed on the IUPAC website,
0:18:13 > 0:18:17which does not list any temporary elements.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Elements beginning with a vowel.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Best of luck, and best of luck to everyone at home.
0:18:21 > 0:18:22See how many you can get.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Right. Wendy?
0:18:24 > 0:18:27- Not my strongest subject.- OK.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29But, I think...
0:18:29 > 0:18:32argon?
0:18:32 > 0:18:33Argon. Let us see if that is right.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37If it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said argon.
0:18:41 > 0:18:42Absolutely right, Wendy.
0:18:46 > 0:18:4823.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Nothing inert about that. 23 for argon.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Very safe answer, well played.
0:18:55 > 0:18:56An inert gas
0:18:56 > 0:18:58discovered by Sir William Ramsay.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02Well done. Well done indeed, Wendy. Argon, 23. Now then, Steve.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05You were shaking your head, tutting, looking very upset with that.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- Very much so, yes. - Like a dog chewing a bee.
0:19:08 > 0:19:13However, now you've had time to think about it, you've thought of some good answers!
0:19:13 > 0:19:14Very much so, yes. No.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16LAUGHTER
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Ilium?
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Classical name for Troy.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24Ilium. Let's see if it's also the name of an element.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27It could well be. Let's see.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30Is it right? How many people said it?
0:19:32 > 0:19:33Ooh. Bad luck, Steve.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36I'm afraid an incorrect answer,
0:19:36 > 0:19:39which scores you the maximum of 100 points. I'm sorry.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Dougie, we turn to you.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44I'm going to go with uranium.
0:19:44 > 0:19:48Uranium. Let's see if that's right.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51If it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:19:53 > 0:19:54Very good, it's right.
0:19:56 > 0:19:5934.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04Nothing wrong with that. Uranium, Richard.
0:20:04 > 0:20:05Radioactive metallic element,
0:20:05 > 0:20:08discovered by Martin Heinrich Klaproth.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11So, we're halfway through the round,
0:20:11 > 0:20:13let's take a look at the scores as they stand.
0:20:13 > 0:20:1723, Wendy and Sarah, looking very strong indeed.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Up to 34, where we find Dougie and Kath,
0:20:20 > 0:20:22and then a bit of a hike to 100, where Steve and Jonathan are.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26Luckily, Jonathan knows a lot about chemical elements beginning
0:20:26 > 0:20:29with vowels, so I think you should be fine.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32- I don't think we are! - We'll come back down the line.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:20:39 > 0:20:42We are looking for...
0:20:42 > 0:20:45Kath, not a bad answer from Dougie there.
0:20:45 > 0:20:49No, it was one that I would have known,
0:20:49 > 0:20:51and now I'm floundering.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55OK, the high scorers are Jonathan and Steve on 100.
0:20:55 > 0:20:56You're on 34.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58If you can score 65 or less,
0:20:58 > 0:21:00you're through to the head-to-head.
0:21:00 > 0:21:04I have two in my head, but I'm not sure if they're right,
0:21:04 > 0:21:07and I'm not sure which one to go with.
0:21:07 > 0:21:12I'll just say this and hope that it's right.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Europium?
0:21:14 > 0:21:15Europium?
0:21:15 > 0:21:20- Have you heard of it? - I've either made it up, or...
0:21:20 > 0:21:21LAUGHTER
0:21:21 > 0:21:24..or I have heard of it somewhere in trying to learn
0:21:24 > 0:21:27chemical elements for this programme, cos I know nothing.
0:21:27 > 0:21:32There is your red line. If you can get below that with europium...
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Is it right? How many people said it?
0:21:36 > 0:21:38It's right! Very well done, Kath!
0:21:38 > 0:21:40And you're through to the next round.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42That's a great answer.
0:21:42 > 0:21:43Still going down.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Oh, look at that!
0:21:45 > 0:21:47CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Hats off to you, Kath. That's a pointless answer.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55That adds 250 quid to today's jackpot,
0:21:55 > 0:21:56takes the total up to £1,250.
0:21:56 > 0:22:01It scores you nothing and leaves your total at a brilliant 34.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Very well done. Richard.
0:22:03 > 0:22:04Very well played, Kath.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07It's used in cathode rays for TV screens, europium.
0:22:07 > 0:22:11It emits a red light when its electrons are excited.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Like Amsterdam.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15LAUGHTER
0:22:15 > 0:22:16There we go. Now then, Jonathan.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Here's the moment.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20We need a pointless answer from you.
0:22:20 > 0:22:24You are the highest scorers, on 100 points.
0:22:24 > 0:22:28Your nearest rivals are Kath and Dougie on 34.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31It's not a strong subject for me, so I either join Smudger
0:22:31 > 0:22:33on the 100-point mark and we take the ribbing together
0:22:33 > 0:22:36or I go for a random punt
0:22:36 > 0:22:38and hope it's a zero.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40I'm not convinced it is, but I'll go for iridium.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44Let's see if iridium is right.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46There is no red line for you. You are the highest scorers.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49We just have to hope it scores as low as possible. Iridium.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52How many people said it? Is it right?
0:22:52 > 0:22:54It's right.
0:22:59 > 0:23:009!
0:23:00 > 0:23:02- Well done, mate. - That's a cracking score.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05A really good answer there, Jonathan. 9.
0:23:05 > 0:23:06Takes your total up to 109.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09Is that going to be enough to save you, though? I wonder.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12- Richard.- Well played, Jonathan. Really good answer.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16Discovered in 1803 by the English chemist Smithson Tennant.
0:23:16 > 0:23:17Now then, Sarah,
0:23:17 > 0:23:19this is the moment of truth.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Jonathan and Steve are on 109, you're on 23.
0:23:21 > 0:23:26A score of 85 or less from you will see you straight through
0:23:26 > 0:23:27to the head-to-head.
0:23:27 > 0:23:31- What are you thinking?- Absolutely nothing at all at the moment.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35The only one I can think of is oxygen.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Which I'm fairly sure is right,
0:23:37 > 0:23:39but it's going to be high.
0:23:39 > 0:23:44It's important. Doesn't mean everyone will remember it.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47OK, there is our red line. Let's see
0:23:47 > 0:23:49if Oxygen will get you below that.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51- What do you think, Jonathan and Steve?- Yeah.
0:23:51 > 0:23:56- Even though it's well-known.- Yeah. - Who knows?- OK, oxygen.
0:23:56 > 0:23:57How many people said it?
0:24:01 > 0:24:02Yep, very well done.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03You are through.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Wow, 40 people.
0:24:09 > 0:24:1140 for oxygen takes your total up to 63.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Very well done. Richard.
0:24:13 > 0:24:17It's actually the highest of all the correct answers, but still only 40.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Amazing, isn't it?
0:24:19 > 0:24:22- Thought to be the third most common element in the universe.- Wow.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Let's take a look at the pointless answers.
0:24:24 > 0:24:28There are only four, so europium was a terrific one.
0:24:28 > 0:24:29Well done, Kath. The others are...
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- I would have gone for osmium.- Osmium?
0:24:39 > 0:24:42- Which would have scored 3 points. - Thanks, Richard.
0:24:42 > 0:24:46At the end of Round Two, the pair with the highest score who'll be leaving us,
0:24:46 > 0:24:48I'm afraid, is Jonathan and Steve.
0:24:48 > 0:24:49Great answer, Jonathan.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Steve! Steve!
0:24:51 > 0:24:54I know what you were trying to do, you were trying to get
0:24:54 > 0:24:59a very low-scoring point, so you were doing an admirable thing.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03It's just you went so far into pointless, you went into made-it-up.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Pretty much so, yeah.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Thanks very much for playing. See you next time.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12But for the remaining two pairs, things are about to get
0:25:12 > 0:25:15even more exciting now as we enter the head-to-head.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Congratulations, Dougie and Kath, Sarah and Wendy.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24You are now only one round away from the final and the chance
0:25:24 > 0:25:27to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at £1,250.
0:25:27 > 0:25:31APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:25:32 > 0:25:34You're now going to go head-to-head,
0:25:34 > 0:25:36and the first pair to win two questions will be
0:25:36 > 0:25:38playing for that jackpot.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42The great news is, from here on in, you are allowed to confer.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44So, you are properly a team, each of you.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48Kath, I've got to ask, when you came up with europium,
0:25:48 > 0:25:51we learnt last time your job is the further education of dental workers.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55- Yes.- Does europium maybe come into that?- No, nothing to do with it.
0:25:55 > 0:26:00I had actually revised chemical elements, because they appear
0:26:00 > 0:26:04on Pointless. Knowing nothing about them, I felt I had to learn a few.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06- And look where it got you! - Look where it got me!
0:26:06 > 0:26:09- Brilliant, a pointless answer. - There we go.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12Very good, our only one of the show. Anyway, Sarah and Wendy.
0:26:12 > 0:26:18Very best of luck. If it helps at all, you're both in new territory.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22OK, if everyone's ready, let's play the head-to-head!
0:26:28 > 0:26:31OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:26:35 > 0:26:39- Richard.- We're about to show you five pictures of famous artists.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Can you tell us who they are, please? Best of luck.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45OK, that's pretty simple. Let's reveal our famous artists.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47Here they are. We have got...
0:27:01 > 0:27:04There we are. Five famous artists.
0:27:04 > 0:27:08Now, Dougie and Kath, because you've played best throughout the show
0:27:08 > 0:27:09so far, you get to go first.
0:27:09 > 0:27:14So, you can confer and then try and provide the name of the artist
0:27:14 > 0:27:17you think is the most obscure on that board.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20THEY WHISPER
0:27:22 > 0:27:24We're going to go for A. It's Picasso.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Picasso, you are saying.
0:27:27 > 0:27:28A, Picasso.
0:27:28 > 0:27:33Sarah and Wendy, you can do your discussing out loud, if you like.
0:27:34 > 0:27:35Over to you, then.
0:27:35 > 0:27:39- Well, I just realised that's Picasso.- Yeah.
0:27:39 > 0:27:43Do you know, I've just realised that, just shortly after he said!
0:27:43 > 0:27:45Before he spoke!
0:27:46 > 0:27:51- D.- D's Andy Warhol, I think. And E is...
0:27:51 > 0:27:54Is that David Hockney? Yeah.
0:27:54 > 0:28:00I think E is less recognised than D.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03- Is he right?- Oh, I don't know. I thought you said...
0:28:03 > 0:28:05You said it with such confidence.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07OK, we'll say E, David Hockney.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09E, David Hockney, you are saying.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13So, we have A, Picasso, and E, David Hockney.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16In the order they were given,
0:28:16 > 0:28:19Dougie and Kath have said that A is Picasso.
0:28:19 > 0:28:20Let's see if that's right,
0:28:20 > 0:28:23and if it is, let's see how many people said A was Picasso.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Absolutely right.
0:28:32 > 0:28:3313!
0:28:33 > 0:28:37APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:28:39 > 0:28:4113 for Picasso. Good score.
0:28:43 > 0:28:44Question is...
0:28:44 > 0:28:47will E, David Hockney, beat it?
0:28:47 > 0:28:49Let's see if it's right,
0:28:49 > 0:28:51and if it is, how many people said it.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55It's right.
0:28:56 > 0:28:5713 is what it has to beat.
0:28:59 > 0:29:00Ooh! 14!
0:29:08 > 0:29:11Very close indeed, but Picasso will win it
0:29:11 > 0:29:15for Dougie and Kath, which means after one question, they are up 1-0.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17- Richard.- Pretty close.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19A couple of answers would have beaten Picasso.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21One of them is B.
0:29:21 > 0:29:23Xander, do you know B?
0:29:23 > 0:29:24Frida Kahlo.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27Absolutely right, the Mexican artist.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29She would have scored 10 points.
0:29:30 > 0:29:32C. Do you know C?
0:29:32 > 0:29:35It's Henri Matisse, I believe.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38It is! And it's a pointless answer.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42Very well done. APPLAUSE
0:29:42 > 0:29:46Well, you see, he's very helpfully standing
0:29:46 > 0:29:48in front of some of his pictures.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51And D, as you knew, is Andy Warhol, but wouldn't have won you the point.
0:29:51 > 0:29:55It's actually the highest scorer on the board, 33 points.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57Well done if you said Matisse at home, very good answer.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00OK, here comes your second question.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02Now then, Sarah and Wendy,
0:30:02 > 0:30:06we need you to win this question to stay in the game.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09Very best of luck. Here it comes. It concerns...
0:30:13 > 0:30:16- Motown. Richard. - We're going to give you five clues
0:30:16 > 0:30:18to facts about the Motown Record Corporation.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21Can you pick the most obscure of these, please?
0:30:21 > 0:30:26OK. Let's reveal our five facts about Motown.
0:30:26 > 0:30:27We have got...
0:30:43 > 0:30:45I'll read all of those one more time.
0:31:00 > 0:31:04There we are. Five clues to facts about Motown.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07This time, Sarah and Wendy, you go first.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11The only one I know is the first one, it was Detroit.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14- Yeah, cos it was Motor Town.- Yeah.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17- Do you know any of the others?- No.
0:31:17 > 0:31:19Anything else would be a guess, but I'm sure that's right.
0:31:19 > 0:31:23The only one we're sure of is the city in which it was founded.
0:31:23 > 0:31:25We'd like to say Detroit.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27Detroit, say Sarah and Wendy.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30The city in which Motown was founded.
0:31:30 > 0:31:34Now, Dougie and Kath. You can do your talking out loud.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36I don't know the name of its founder.
0:31:37 > 0:31:40Singer, I think maybe I could guess, but I wouldn't go for it.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42The singer still with Motown, is it?
0:31:42 > 0:31:45- I think it might be Smokey Robinson, but I wouldn't go for it.- OK.
0:31:45 > 0:31:48We're going to go for the female group,
0:31:48 > 0:31:50and we're going to say The Supremes.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52The Supremes, you are saying.
0:31:52 > 0:31:56The female group who recorded Motown's first UK number-one single.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59So, we have Detroit, we have The Supremes.
0:31:59 > 0:32:04Now then, Sarah and Wendy, you've gone with Detroit.
0:32:04 > 0:32:07You have to win this to stay in the game. Good luck.
0:32:07 > 0:32:08Let's see if it's right, and if so,
0:32:08 > 0:32:13how many people knew Detroit was the city in which Motown was founded.
0:32:20 > 0:32:2145.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24APPLAUSE
0:32:27 > 0:32:2945 for Detroit.
0:32:29 > 0:32:33Dougie and Kathy, are you sure about The Supremes?
0:32:33 > 0:32:34Or is that just a kind of...?
0:32:34 > 0:32:37- Call it an inspired guess.- OK.
0:32:39 > 0:32:42- I think it was Baby Love.- OK.
0:32:42 > 0:32:45It has to be right, and it has to go below 45.
0:32:45 > 0:32:49Let's see if The Supremes had Motown's first UK number-one single.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55This decides who goes to the final.
0:32:55 > 0:32:56Oh!
0:32:56 > 0:32:59You have done it! 36.
0:33:01 > 0:33:02You pipped it
0:33:02 > 0:33:05with the first question.
0:33:05 > 0:33:07Just slightly more than pipped it this time. Not by much.
0:33:07 > 0:33:09Dougie and Kath, after two questions,
0:33:09 > 0:33:11you are through to the final, 2-0.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13- Very well done.- Very well played.
0:33:13 > 0:33:16It was The Supremes, and it was Baby Love as well, October 1964.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Let's have a look at the rest of the answers,
0:33:19 > 0:33:23all of which would have won the point.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26- The name of its founder?- Berry Gordy.
0:33:26 > 0:33:30Well, Berry Gordy Jr, but I would have given you that. Scored 6 points.
0:33:30 > 0:33:34Now, the singer still with Motown since 1961, been there over 50 years?
0:33:34 > 0:33:36Stevie Wonder. He was Little Stevie Wonder.
0:33:36 > 0:33:38He was Little Stevie Wonder when he started.
0:33:38 > 0:33:41He signed a lifelong contract with Motown.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43He would have scored you 12 points.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47- Best answer on the board - the film first co-produced by Motown?- No.
0:33:47 > 0:33:51Starred Diana Ross as Billie Holiday - it was Lady Sings The Blues.
0:33:51 > 0:33:55That would have scored you 1 point. Best answer on the board.
0:33:55 > 0:34:00- Well done if you got that, well done if you got all five.- Thanks, Richard.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02So, the losing pair at the end of
0:34:02 > 0:34:03the head-to-head, I'm afraid,
0:34:03 > 0:34:05Sarah and Wendy. You've done incredibly well
0:34:05 > 0:34:07to come all this way on your first appearance,
0:34:07 > 0:34:10and a cracking answer in the first question,
0:34:10 > 0:34:12so nearly got it.
0:34:12 > 0:34:16But I'm afraid Motown has seen you out.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19Anyway, we'll see you again next time,
0:34:19 > 0:34:20and we'll look forward to that.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23- Thanks very much for playing. - Thank you.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28For Dougie and Kath, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36Congratulations, Dougie and Kath, you have seen off
0:34:36 > 0:34:41all the competition, and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:34:47 > 0:34:51At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,250.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58Well, you've done phenomenally well,
0:34:58 > 0:35:01and we've gone through a whole range of different subjects.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03I'm trying to think what we've had.
0:35:03 > 0:35:08- We've had Art, Music, Chemistry, Film.- Yes, Oscars.
0:35:08 > 0:35:12And here you are, still on the bucking bronco that is Pointless.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14THEY LAUGH
0:35:14 > 0:35:17- What a ride!- What a ride, indeed.
0:35:17 > 0:35:18Well, you said it.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20The rules are very simple.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22To win, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24We've had one pointless answer today,
0:35:24 > 0:35:26- and that was yours, Kath.- Yes.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28You only have to find one more now
0:35:28 > 0:35:30and you'll leave here with that jackpot.
0:35:30 > 0:35:33You've first got to choose one of these five categories.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47You are spoilt for choice there, aren't you(?)
0:35:47 > 0:35:49I could just leave now, I suppose!
0:35:49 > 0:35:52Well, I know what I'd like to do, but you know...
0:35:52 > 0:35:55- Could Partick Thistle come up? - You never know!
0:35:55 > 0:35:58- When I was little, I always thought it said Patrick Thistle.- Me too.
0:35:58 > 0:36:02Well, Billy Connolly once said they're called Partick Thistle Nil,
0:36:02 > 0:36:03that's their actual name.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05LAUGHTER
0:36:05 > 0:36:09- OK.- Do you want to go for it? Would you mind?- I don't mind at all.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11OK, we'll go for Scottish Football, please.
0:36:11 > 0:36:13- Ah, there we go. - THEY LAUGH
0:36:13 > 0:36:15Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:36:23 > 0:36:24Richard.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27Yeah, we're looking for any club that has won
0:36:27 > 0:36:30the Scottish Football Association Challenge Cup, most commonly
0:36:30 > 0:36:34known as the Scottish Cup, from its very first year in 1873-1874.
0:36:34 > 0:36:35Very best of luck.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38OK, you now have up to one minute to come up with three answers,
0:36:38 > 0:36:41and all you need to win that £1,250 is
0:36:41 > 0:36:44for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46- Are you ready?- Yes.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51There they are, your time starts now.
0:36:51 > 0:36:55OK, there's three teams I can think of that are suitably obscure.
0:36:55 > 0:36:58- One of them is Partick Thistle. - SHE LAUGHS
0:36:58 > 0:37:02And that is a fact. 1921, they beat Rangers in the final at Celtic Park.
0:37:02 > 0:37:05Are you sure it's not just because you want to say Partick Thistle?
0:37:05 > 0:37:06- Well, I've said it now.- OK.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09East Fife won it when they were in the Second Division.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11East Fife four, Forfar five!
0:37:11 > 0:37:15The other team who I think may have won it are not in the league anymore, called Renton.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17My aunt used to live in Renton,
0:37:17 > 0:37:19so therefore I know the village quite well.
0:37:19 > 0:37:20- And did they win the Cup? - I think they did.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23They were called Champions of the World at one time,
0:37:23 > 0:37:25because I think they won the Scottish Cup
0:37:25 > 0:37:27and then they played the winners of the FA Cup and beat them.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31- Oh.- So there we go. So, I think I'm ready.- Wow.
0:37:31 > 0:37:34- Sounds like you might be, yeah! - I think he's ready!
0:37:34 > 0:37:38Stop the clock. OK, we were looking for winners of the Scottish Cup.
0:37:38 > 0:37:40That's very impressive. I now need your three answers.
0:37:40 > 0:37:45OK, I'm going to go with Partick Thistle, East Fife and Renton.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47Three great answers.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50Of those, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:37:50 > 0:37:53- Renton, I think.- Renton, we'll pop last. And least likely?
0:37:53 > 0:37:56- I think, actually, Partick Thistle. - Partick Thistle. OK.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Because everyone knows them, of course!
0:37:58 > 0:38:01Everyone that's ever seen them has been mesmerised by them!
0:38:01 > 0:38:05They've seen football that they've never believed they could ever see!
0:38:05 > 0:38:09It'll be one of those scores in the high 90s. OK, right.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11Let's put them up on the board in that order. We have..
0:38:18 > 0:38:21OK, we were looking for winners of the Scottish Cup.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24Partick Thistle was your least-confident shot
0:38:24 > 0:38:25at a pointless answer.
0:38:25 > 0:38:28You only have to find one pointless answer, remember,
0:38:28 > 0:38:30to win that £1,250 jackpot.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32Dougie, what would you do with £1,250?
0:38:32 > 0:38:36Erm, I'd maybe buy Partick Thistle, but I don't know what I'd do...
0:38:36 > 0:38:37LAUGHTER
0:38:37 > 0:38:40I don't know what I'd do with the money that was left over!
0:38:40 > 0:38:43Where would you put them?!
0:38:43 > 0:38:46Kath, what would you do?
0:38:46 > 0:38:49Oh, some little treats, I think. For the family, not for myself.
0:38:49 > 0:38:52And I hope for yourself, too.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54- I'm sure.- Very good. OK, let's see.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57Partick Thistle. Is it right, and if it is, how many said it?
0:39:01 > 0:39:02It's absolutely right.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07Your first shot at the £1,250.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09If this goes all the way down to zero,
0:39:09 > 0:39:12you can go home with the money right now.
0:39:12 > 0:39:13Down it goes... 2!
0:39:19 > 0:39:23- Is my sister on the panel?! - On the 100 people!
0:39:23 > 0:39:25That's nice - I can say Partick Thistle, 2!
0:39:25 > 0:39:26DOUGIE CHEERS
0:39:26 > 0:39:29There we are. Unfortunately, not a pointless answer.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31But that's good, for all the right reasons.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33Everyone remembered Partick Thistle.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36- Well, 98 people didn't, but... - LAUGHTER
0:39:36 > 0:39:40You only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42We are looking for winners of the Scottish Cup.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Let's hope nobody said your next answer, East Fife.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46Has to be correct. Has to be pointless.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49If it's both of those things, you leave here with £1,250.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52East Fife, is it right? How many people said it?
0:39:56 > 0:39:58Absolutely right.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Another correct answer.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02Partick Thistle took us down to 2.
0:40:02 > 0:40:03East Fife still going down.
0:40:03 > 0:40:05If this takes us down to zero,
0:40:05 > 0:40:08you will leave with £1,250.
0:40:08 > 0:40:093!
0:40:13 > 0:40:17Partick Thistle 2, East Fife 3? No, can't believe that!
0:40:17 > 0:40:19You only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:40:19 > 0:40:21I have to say, I'm so glad that it's come to Renton,
0:40:21 > 0:40:24cos I loved your reason for knowing that
0:40:24 > 0:40:27Renton, Champions of the World,
0:40:27 > 0:40:29had won the Scottish Cup.
0:40:29 > 0:40:34It feels like a pointless answer to me. Let's hope it does it for you.
0:40:34 > 0:40:38Renton, your most confident shot at the pointless answer.
0:40:38 > 0:40:42To win that jackpot of £1,250, it has to be pointless. Let's find out.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44Is it right? How many people said Renton?
0:40:47 > 0:40:50It's right!
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Partick Thistle took us down to 2,
0:40:52 > 0:40:55East Fife down to 3.
0:40:55 > 0:40:57Renton is correct, and down it goes.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59Still going down.
0:40:59 > 0:41:01Yes! You've done it!
0:41:01 > 0:41:03That's wonderful!
0:41:05 > 0:41:06Very well done.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09- Absolutely brilliant. Well done. - Thank you so much, thank you.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11Fabulous play.
0:41:11 > 0:41:14- Scottish Football! - Yeah, there you are.
0:41:14 > 0:41:16- I can't believe that! - Can you believe that?!
0:41:19 > 0:41:20Well, congratulations!
0:41:20 > 0:41:23For the best reasons.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Renton was a pointless answer,
0:41:25 > 0:41:28which means you go home with the jackpot of £1,250.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:41:35 > 0:41:36That's terrific, very well played.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39They actually won the Scottish Cup twice, 1885 and 1888.
0:41:39 > 0:41:43And you're right, in 1888 they went on to play the English champions,
0:41:43 > 0:41:45West Bromwich Albion, to decide who was to be
0:41:45 > 0:41:47the Champion of the United Kingdom and the World.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49And Renton won that as well.
0:41:49 > 0:41:53Later went on to win the Europium Cup as well.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55- LAUGHTER - Go me!
0:41:55 > 0:41:58But brilliant, very well played.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00Also, an amazing story. As you say,
0:42:00 > 0:42:02it's a tiny village in Dunbartonshire,
0:42:02 > 0:42:05and they became Champions of the World, by hook or by crook.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07Let's take a look at the other pointless answers.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10I'm sure there'll be some other ones you know here if you knew those.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13A few of the obscure Scottish teams are no longer with us.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15But let's take a look at all of them.
0:42:18 > 0:42:21All of those pointless answers. Well done if you said any of those.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27There's Renton, the mighty Renton. Champions of the World!
0:42:29 > 0:42:32Third Lanark, who won it twice. Beat Celtic once and Rangers once.
0:42:32 > 0:42:33- That's not bad, is it?- Not bad.
0:42:33 > 0:42:37And Vale of Leven at the bottom there, who won it three times.
0:42:37 > 0:42:40- Very well done if you said any of those at home.- Thank you, Richard.
0:42:40 > 0:42:44And thanks once again to our winning players, Dougie and Kath,
0:42:44 > 0:42:48who go away with today's jackpot of £1,250. Brilliant!
