0:00:18 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Thank you. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:25 > 0:00:29the quiz show where obvious answers mean nothing and obscure answers mean everything.

0:00:29 > 0:00:32- Let's meet today's players. - APPLAUSE

0:00:34 > 0:00:39First up we welcome Ray and Kay. Ray, how do you two know each other?

0:00:39 > 0:00:43We met while studying at university a long ago.

0:00:43 > 0:00:47- And Kay, are you husband and wife? - We are, yes.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50- Ah, good. - LAUGHTER

0:00:50 > 0:00:53- Phew! Where are you from, Kay? - Telford in Shropshire.- Telford.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56And what are you looking forward to seeing come up today?

0:00:56 > 0:00:59- Er, sort of biology, human biology, medicine.- Very good.

0:00:59 > 0:01:03Ray, anything you are particularly hoping doesn't come up?

0:01:03 > 0:01:07- Biology, human biology.- Oh, it's OK. Kay can pick up all that.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11It'll be fine. Best of luck, Ray and Kay. Lovely to have you on the show.

0:01:11 > 0:01:16- I like having a husband and wife with rhyming names.- It's nice. - I wish more people would do that.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19- I think everyone should do it.- Yeah.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22Richard would be bad. LAUGHTER

0:01:22 > 0:01:27- Yeah. - If your name rhymes with Richard and you're single, get in touch.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30- LAUGHTER - OK. Could be fun. See what happens.

0:01:30 > 0:01:34Anyway, lovely to have you here, Ray and Kay. Next we welcome back Derek and Stuart.

0:01:34 > 0:01:39You were on the show last time. Everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42This is your final chance. Derek, how do you two know each other?

0:01:42 > 0:01:45We're friends. We've been friends for a few years.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48I'm a pub quiz master and this man kept coming along,

0:01:48 > 0:01:51kept winning, kept annoying me,

0:01:51 > 0:01:54and we just, through a mutual love of football, music and cheese,

0:01:54 > 0:01:56we ended up becoming quite good friends.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59Very good. Stuart, what happened last time?

0:02:00 > 0:02:04Bit of a disaster, really. Category wasn't one of our strong points.

0:02:04 > 0:02:09- What was it?- It was famous scientists and their full names.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11That was really hard. Really hard.

0:02:11 > 0:02:16- Derek, what are you hoping will come up today?- Well, we're hoping for any kind of sports,

0:02:16 > 0:02:21music, television, geography, along those lines, really.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23Anything else you'd not like to see come up?

0:02:23 > 0:02:25Probably art and literature.

0:02:25 > 0:02:31- Art and literature.- Not my... - Not your strongest suit. OK.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33I'm aware that books exist, but that's...

0:02:33 > 0:02:38The classics' enemy. I do read, but I don't go that far.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40- It's just not my thing.- OK.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Well, Derek, Stuart, it was the first round last time,

0:02:43 > 0:02:45so let's hope we see much more of you this time.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47Best of luck, Derek and Stuart.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51Next we welcome back Paul and Steve, who were also on the show last time.

0:02:51 > 0:02:55- Paul, remind us quickly how you two know each other.- We both work together on the railway.

0:02:55 > 0:03:00Now, you said last time, Paul, that you had visited every station

0:03:00 > 0:03:04- in the country, including all the London stations.- Yes, that's right.

0:03:04 > 0:03:08When you say you've visited them, have you have your photo taken there?

0:03:08 > 0:03:11At lot. Cos a lot of stations look as though they want knocking down.

0:03:11 > 0:03:15So have you got an album with a picture of you on every station in Britain?

0:03:15 > 0:03:20I've got 43 albums full now. Ten disks.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23Do you show that to people much? LAUGHTER

0:03:23 > 0:03:26Only if they ask me.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28How many people have asked you? LAUGHTER

0:03:28 > 0:03:31- Quite a few.- You know what, I bet they have, as well.

0:03:31 > 0:03:36- I bet people are envious. I bet there's a lot of... That's quite an impressive achievement.- Yeah, it is.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39That's a lot of stations. Very good.

0:03:39 > 0:03:44So stations didn't come up yesterday, Paul. Maybe they'll come up today.

0:03:44 > 0:03:49That'd be good. So stations, obviously. Steve, what would you like to see come up today?

0:03:49 > 0:03:53- Books of Wally Lamb. - Books of Wally Lamb.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57- He only wrote three, didn't he? - LAUGHTER

0:03:59 > 0:04:04OK. So that'd be good. Anything you'd particularly not like to come up, Steve?

0:04:04 > 0:04:08- Anything to do with railway stations.- OK. - LAUGHTER

0:04:08 > 0:04:12OK, well, lovely to have you back, Paul and Steve. Warm welcome back.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16And finally, we welcome back Mel and Pam, who were also on the show last time.

0:04:16 > 0:04:22- Mel, remind us how you two know each other.- We are married from 1964

0:04:22 > 0:04:25and, er, yes, we met at a school dance

0:04:25 > 0:04:28and we were romantically entwined from then on.

0:04:28 > 0:04:32Aww! Pam, what happened last time?

0:04:32 > 0:04:36Second round, I mispronounced a name.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39- I said Anthony Banderas. - Oh, yes!- Instead of Antonio.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Aww. You were Anglicising it. That was very harsh, I think.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45- It was too harsh.- Well, very hard.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48I tell you what's happened since last time, Mel.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52Last time you came on in full teaching rig, you had a bowtie, a jacket.

0:04:52 > 0:04:58You were the very acme of a school teacher. Look at you today!

0:04:58 > 0:05:01- Look at you! What is it, holidays? - LAUGHTER

0:05:01 > 0:05:04- Non-uniform day.- Ah!

0:05:04 > 0:05:09But, no, the formal approach didn't work for me, so I've come casual.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12Wow. So, Mel, we discovered last time

0:05:12 > 0:05:15- you teach English and history. - I taught...

0:05:15 > 0:05:17You have taught English and history.

0:05:17 > 0:05:22- Yes.- So you must be hoping today that we'll have some history and English.- Absolutely.

0:05:22 > 0:05:28I'm looking for the arts side. Last time, too much on the science side of things.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30- So arts and politics.- Very good.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Mel, Pam, lovely to have you back on the show.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36I'm expecting great things from you today. Very best of luck.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39We'll find out more about all of you throughout the show.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42There's only one person left for me to introduce.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44He's the man they like to call Rickopedia.

0:05:44 > 0:05:48- He's my pointless friend, he's Richard.- Hiya.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51APPLAUSE Hello. Hiya.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57Very good. Now, Round One, Mel...

0:05:57 > 0:06:01They gave me some real jip about the questions, Mel and Pam.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03Round One especially for you.

0:06:03 > 0:06:07It's the sort of thing where you find out just how good an English teacher you were.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10LAUGHTER

0:06:10 > 0:06:14- This should be good, shouldn't it? - Yeah!- He looks delighted about that. - He really does.

0:06:14 > 0:06:18Anyone who used to be taught by Mel, keep your eye out on Round One.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22- LAUGHTER - Thank you very much, Richard.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24All our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28In order to get through to our final round and be in with a chance of winning our jackpot,

0:06:28 > 0:06:31our contestants need to find the most obscure answers

0:06:31 > 0:06:34that our 100 people couldn't get.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37The fewer of the 100 people who knew the answer, the fewer points they will score.

0:06:37 > 0:06:42What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer that none of our 100 people knew.

0:06:42 > 0:06:46Each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50Nobody won the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that.

0:06:50 > 0:06:54So today's jackpot starts off at £9,500!

0:06:54 > 0:06:58CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:06:58 > 0:07:02- Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:07:05 > 0:07:09OK, in this first round, each of you must give me one answer

0:07:09 > 0:07:11and you cannot confer with your partner.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14Whichever pair has the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated,

0:07:14 > 0:07:19so try and make sure that's not you. OK, our first category today is...

0:07:21 > 0:07:25..language. Can you decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second?

0:07:27 > 0:07:30And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35OK, let's find out what the question is. Here is comes.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:07:38 > 0:07:43as many words ending in OP as they could.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Words ending in OP, Richard.

0:07:46 > 0:07:50We're looking for any word which has its own individual entry in the Oxford Dictionary of English

0:07:50 > 0:07:54which ends OP. No proper nouns or hyphenated words.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57If you're playing at home, there are a huge amount of pointless answers.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01There's some very, very well-known words that a pointless answers in this round.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04So if it's played properly and bravely by everybody,

0:08:04 > 0:08:07there could be an awful lot of pointless answers here, as well.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10But words ending OP. Very, very best of luck.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13OK. Now then, Ray and Kay, you all drew lots before the show

0:08:13 > 0:08:16and today you get to go first.

0:08:16 > 0:08:21Well, you heard the man, Kay. He said played properly and bravely...

0:08:21 > 0:08:23Erm, stoop.

0:08:23 > 0:08:28- Stoop. She's good. - LAUGHTER

0:08:28 > 0:08:33Stoop, says Kay. Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many of our 100 people said stoop.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Absolutely right.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45- 22. - APPLAUSE

0:08:48 > 0:08:53Well done, Kay. Very tough being on that first podium in the words rounds. But a very safe answer.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Stoop, obviously, we know what it means. Also, in America,

0:08:55 > 0:08:59it's a porch with steps leading up to a house. Stoop.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03- Derek. - Erm, now, I'm hoping this is in.

0:09:03 > 0:09:07It's a bit onomatopoeic, but I'm going to go for wallop.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10Wallop. Wallop, says Derek.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many of our 100 said wallop.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Absolutely right.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26- Seven! - APPLAUSE

0:09:29 > 0:09:32To strike or hit very hard. Well done, Derek. Wallop.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35So words ending in OP. Paul.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38I think I'm going to go for slop.

0:09:39 > 0:09:43OK, slop, says Paul. How many of our 100 said slop?

0:09:50 > 0:09:54- 29. - APPLAUSE

0:09:55 > 0:09:58Yeah, liquid spill or overflow. Slop.

0:09:58 > 0:10:03Still an awful lot of pointless answers out here. An awful lot of familiar words.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06If only we had an English teacher on the show.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08- LAUGHTER - Yeah.

0:10:08 > 0:10:13We need some careful, careful thinking here. Let's see if we can find a pointless answer.

0:10:13 > 0:10:19I did a bit of IT teaching. The word teraflop?

0:10:20 > 0:10:22You never told us you taught IT, as well.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24LAUGHTER

0:10:24 > 0:10:28- I thought it was just English and history. - It explains the shirt, though.- Yeah.

0:10:28 > 0:10:32- LAUGHTER - Teraflop. Teraflop.

0:10:32 > 0:10:36Teraflop. Let's see if teraflop's right, and if it is, how many of our 100 people said it.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42It's right.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51- Yeah! There we are! Well done! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:10:55 > 0:10:59There we go, Mel. Well done. That's a pointless answer, it adds £250 to today's jackpot,

0:10:59 > 0:11:03takes the total up to £9,750!

0:11:03 > 0:11:06- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - And it scores you nothing.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09Yeah, well played, Mel. That's the way to do it.

0:11:09 > 0:11:14He earned his spurs as an English teacher and an IT teacher. It's a unit of computing speed, teraflop,

0:11:14 > 0:11:17as I'm sure you know better than I do.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20Thanks, Richard. We're halfway through the round. Let's look at the scores.

0:11:20 > 0:11:25Mel and Pam now looking very strong after Mel's pointless answer there.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29There they are on no points at all. Then we go up to seven, where we find Derek and Stuart.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32Up to 22, where we find Ray and Kay. And then up to 29,

0:11:32 > 0:11:35where we find Paul and Steve. It's not a terribly high score,

0:11:35 > 0:11:38Steve, 29,

0:11:38 > 0:11:42but you are the high-scorers, so we need a really low score from you to keep you in the game.

0:11:42 > 0:11:46OK, we'll come back down the line. Second players, take your places at the podium.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52OK, we're looking for words ending in OP.

0:11:52 > 0:11:56Pam, the high-scorers are Steve and Paul on 29. You're on nothing.

0:11:56 > 0:12:01So a score of 28 or less will keep you from becoming the new high-scorers.

0:12:01 > 0:12:05- I'm going to go with croop. - Croop, says Pam.

0:12:05 > 0:12:09Let's see if that's right and how many people said it. There is your red line.

0:12:09 > 0:12:12If you can get below that with croop, you are into the next round.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Croop. Is it right? How many people said it?

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Oooh!

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Bad luck, Pam. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,

0:12:23 > 0:12:26which means you score the maximum of 100 points.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28- I'm sorry.- Yeah, sorry, Pam. Anyone with young kids

0:12:28 > 0:12:31will know the word, but it's O-U-P.

0:12:31 > 0:12:33- Croup.- OK.

0:12:33 > 0:12:37Steve, the high-scorers are now Pam and Mel on 100. You're on 29.

0:12:37 > 0:12:41So a score of 70 or less will see you through to the next round.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44Let's have another pointless answer, Steve.

0:12:44 > 0:12:48I'm trying to think of a derivative of Mel's. There's got to be one.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52I'm just going to say outcrop.

0:12:52 > 0:12:56OK, let's see if outcrop's right, and if it is, how many of our 100 people said it.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01Absolutely right.

0:13:01 > 0:13:03You're through to the next round.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09- One! - APPLAUSE

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Nicely done, Steve.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16That's the way to do it with these rounds. One point.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18That takes your total up to 30. Richard.

0:13:18 > 0:13:24Well played, Steve. Terrific answer. As I said, there are some very, very low scorers out there

0:13:24 > 0:13:27and still plenty of pointless ones with very familiar words, so keep guessing.

0:13:27 > 0:13:31OK, Stuart, you heard what the man said. There are lots of pointless answers out there.

0:13:31 > 0:13:36- Quite familiar words. - Well, the one I was thinking of, Derek's already said.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39That was the first word that popped into my head and I wasn't sure if it was right.

0:13:39 > 0:13:45So I'm going to have to go down the same root and go for another onomatopoeic word and say gallop.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47Gallop, says Stuart.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50The high-scorers are Mel and Pam on 100.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54You are on seven. If you can score 92 or less, you're through to next round.

0:13:54 > 0:13:59Gallop. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said gallop.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04It's right and you're through.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11- 11. - APPLAUSE

0:14:11 > 0:14:1511 for gallop. Takes your total up to 18. Richard.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Well done, Steve. The fastest pace of a horse.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20Or in the UK, a ground where horses are run.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22So remember, we're looking for words ending in OP.

0:14:22 > 0:14:27Now then, Ray, last chance for a pointless answer in this round.

0:14:27 > 0:14:31You are on 22. The high-scorers are still Pam and Mel on 100.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34If you can score 77 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:14:34 > 0:14:39- Let's have a pointless answer. - Well, I've got several in mind,

0:14:39 > 0:14:44one of which I'm less likely to go for given the situation we're in,

0:14:44 > 0:14:48- so I'm going to go for pitstop. - Pitstop, says Ray.

0:14:48 > 0:14:52Let's see if pitstop's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said.

0:14:57 > 0:15:02Ooh, bad luck, Ray. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,

0:15:02 > 0:15:07which means you score the maximum of 100 points. That takes your total up to an unbeatable 122.

0:15:07 > 0:15:12Pam and Mel, welcome back to the game. Richard.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Yeah, I'm so sorry. It's two words, pit stop, I'm afraid,

0:15:14 > 0:15:17certainly in the Oxford Dictionary of English.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers now.

0:15:19 > 0:15:22See if you got any of these at home.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24Barbershop would've been a pointless answer.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27Bellyflop, pointless answer. We had wallop from Derek.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30If we'd had codswallop, it would've been pointless.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32Gollop, which is to gobble.

0:15:32 > 0:15:35Hilltop. You could also have mountaintop, clifftop or treetop.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Hyssop, which is a sort of minty flower.

0:15:38 > 0:15:41Moptop. Nincompoop. LAUGHTER

0:15:41 > 0:15:43That's a good word to get.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45And raindrop. You could also have had dewdrop or gumdrop.

0:15:45 > 0:15:51There's a few others. Woodentop. Worktop. Longstop. Electropop.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55- What are the high-scorers? - The high ones, these are the ones that most of our 100 people said.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57I think we avoided them, which is very rare.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00Hop would've scored you 48.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04Drop, 49. What do you think the top one will be?

0:16:04 > 0:16:06- Stop.- Let's take a look.

0:16:06 > 0:16:11- Mop.- Ah, there we go.- 51. - Thanks very much indeed, Richard.

0:16:11 > 0:16:15So at the end of our first round, the losing pair with the highest score, I'm afraid Ray and Kay.

0:16:15 > 0:16:19Ray and Kay. Tough, that.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Really tough, but there we are.

0:16:21 > 0:16:26You were doing the right thing. I was convinced it would be pointless, but there we are. Ah, well.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Thanks very much for playing. Sorry we have to say goodbye.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33We'll see you again next time. We'll look forward to that. Thanks so much. Ray and Kay.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36APPLAUSE

0:16:36 > 0:16:39But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41APPLAUSE

0:16:44 > 0:16:46And so four pairs become three pairs.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49And at the end of this round, three pairs become two

0:16:49 > 0:16:53as another pair will be leaving us for the head-to-head.

0:16:53 > 0:16:58So Pam and Mel, oh, that was a bit of a rollercoaster, wasn't it?

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Oh, it would've been terrible if you'd left.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05Dear, oh, dear! So, Stuart and Derek our low-scorers there.

0:17:05 > 0:17:09Two lovely low-scoring answers. And Steve and Paul looking pretty nifty in the middle there.

0:17:09 > 0:17:13Very best to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two is...

0:17:17 > 0:17:21Can you decide in your pairs who'll go first, who'll go second?

0:17:21 > 0:17:24And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30OK, our question concerns...

0:17:33 > 0:17:37Artists and their only UK number ones.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39- That's a polite way of saying one-hit wonders.- It's not.

0:17:39 > 0:17:43It's acts who've only had one number one. Some have had lots of other hits as well,

0:17:43 > 0:17:48but their only number-one single. On each pass we'll show you the names of six songs

0:17:48 > 0:17:50which were the only number-one single for the act.

0:17:50 > 0:17:55Can you give us the name of that act? A nice obscure answer will score you fewer points

0:17:55 > 0:17:57but an incorrect answer will be 100 points.

0:17:57 > 0:18:02And all of these bands have only had one number-one single up to May 2012.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04Who's to say what the future holds?

0:18:04 > 0:18:0712 songs in all, so 12 acts to guess at home.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09OK. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12So we're looking for the artists or groups for whom these were their only UK number ones.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15And we have got...

0:18:22 > 0:18:24I'll read those all one last time.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33So there we are. Six number-one singles.

0:18:33 > 0:18:37You just need to supply the names of the artists who had UK number ones with them.

0:18:37 > 0:18:42- Now then, Derek, what do you make of that?- I know them all.- Brilliant.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44Do you have a clear idea of which might be the lowest score?

0:18:44 > 0:18:48- Actually, I don't. - LAUGHTER

0:18:48 > 0:18:50I'm going to go for All That She Wants.

0:18:50 > 0:18:54- It was by Ace Of Base.- Ace Of Base, says Derek, for All That She Wants.

0:18:54 > 0:18:59Ace Of Base. Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people knew it. Ace Of Base.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02Absolutely right.

0:19:07 > 0:19:11- Seven! - APPLAUSE

0:19:11 > 0:19:15That feels like a lowest score to me. Seven. Great answer. Richard.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17Yeah, Swedish four-piece Ace Of Base.

0:19:17 > 0:19:21Never had another number-one single. The Sign was number two. Recently reformed.

0:19:21 > 0:19:26- Have they?- Half of them, yeah.- Wow. And are they touring both their hits

0:19:26 > 0:19:28- around the continent? - Don't mock Ace Of Base.

0:19:28 > 0:19:32Alejandro by Lady Gaga is very heavily influenced by Ace Of Base.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35- She's a big fan. They were good. - They were.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37That's you told. LAUGHTER

0:19:39 > 0:19:41Paul.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Right, er...

0:19:43 > 0:19:47I'm going to go with Should I Stay Or Should I Go? by The Clash.

0:19:47 > 0:19:52The Clash, Should I Stay Or Should I Go? Let's see if that's right and how many people said The Clash.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03- 20! - APPLAUSE

0:20:03 > 0:20:05Not bad at all. 20 for The Clash.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08Yes, reached number 17 when it was first released

0:20:08 > 0:20:12and then rereleased in 1991 and went to number one.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15Big logical flaw in the lyrics.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18If I go it will be trouble, if I stay it will be double.

0:20:18 > 0:20:22- Yeah.- Well, then, you've got to go, cos it'll be twice the trouble if you stay.- Yeah.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25I know whatever happens, there's trouble,

0:20:25 > 0:20:27but there will be twice as much trouble for one of the options

0:20:27 > 0:20:31and half as much trouble for the other option. He's rationally looked at the situation,

0:20:31 > 0:20:36he's understood it, he's worked out the amount of trouble he's going to be in in both scenarios.

0:20:36 > 0:20:40He says it will be double. OK? He says it, so he knows it.

0:20:40 > 0:20:43- Yeah.- So no need for the song. LAUGHTER

0:20:43 > 0:20:48Absolutely no need for the song. Come on. Option A every time.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50- It's crazy!- Yeah. OK.

0:20:50 > 0:20:55That's like that Prodigy song, I've got the poison, I've got the remedy. If you've got both, you don't need...

0:20:55 > 0:20:58LAUGHTER You do not need to tell me.

0:20:58 > 0:21:02You can just get on with your day. LAUGHTER

0:21:02 > 0:21:05- Pam.- I haven't got a clue.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08This is the worst subject possible.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11So I'm going to guess Albatross, AC/DC.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15- I haven't got a clue. - Albatross, AC/DC.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18One of these days, someone's going to guess and get it spot on.

0:21:18 > 0:21:23Is today that day? Albatross, AC/DC. Let's see. Is it right?

0:21:26 > 0:21:28Ooh! Bad luck, Pam.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer

0:21:30 > 0:21:33and it scores you the maximum of 100 points. I'm sorry.

0:21:33 > 0:21:38- Richard.- Sorry, Pam, that's the only number-one single for Fleetwood Mac, Albatross.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41Would have scored you 34 points.

0:21:41 > 0:21:45- How are you on the rest of this board? Jealous Guy?- Er, Roxy Music.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48Yeah, absolutely right. That would've scored you 12 points.

0:21:48 > 0:21:52- True.- Spandau Ballet. - Spandau Ballet. That was their only number-one single, 29.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54- Do you know Dakota? - It's the Stereophonics?

0:21:54 > 0:21:58Yeah, best answer on the board. Stereophonics. Three points. Well done if you got all of those.

0:21:58 > 0:22:02OK. Thanks very much. We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.

0:22:02 > 0:22:06Derek and Stuart, looking very strong indeed. Lovely low score of seven.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09Then we go up to 20, where we find Paul and Steve.

0:22:09 > 0:22:14And then I'm sorry, Pam, up to 100 where we find Mel and Pam.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17We'll come back down the line. Second players, take your places at the podium.

0:22:20 > 0:22:24OK, let's put six more UK number-one singles on the board, and here they come. We have got...

0:22:33 > 0:22:35I'll read those all one last time.

0:22:35 > 0:22:39MMMBop, that would have been a good score in the first round.

0:22:45 > 0:22:50Remember, we are looking for the artists for whom these were their only UK number ones.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53And you are going to find the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew. Mel?

0:22:53 > 0:22:58House Of Fun sounds familiar.

0:22:58 > 0:23:03- Madness?- Madness, says Mel. Madness for House Of Fun.

0:23:03 > 0:23:06You're the high-scorers on 100, so there's no red line for you.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09Let's see, Madness, is that right and how many people said it?

0:23:11 > 0:23:13Absolutely right.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18- 50. - APPLAUSE

0:23:18 > 0:23:22That scores you 50. It takes your total to 150, Mel.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25Yes, a big score for Madness, I'm afraid.

0:23:25 > 0:23:29They had countless top-20 hits but that's their only number-one single.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32Extraordinary. OK, thanks very much.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35Now then, Steve and Paul, you are through to the head-to-head.

0:23:35 > 0:23:39I'm afraid Mel and Pam's high score of 150 is unbeatable.

0:23:39 > 0:23:44So, yes, the remaining two pairs are now through, but Steve, you're on 20.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47Let's see if you can find a really nice, low-scoring answer on that board.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50I only know, well, I think I know one.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52Fairground, Simply Red.

0:23:52 > 0:23:56Fairground, Simply Red. Let's see if it's right, how many people said it.

0:24:04 > 0:24:0613!

0:24:06 > 0:24:09Very good indeed. That takes your total up to 33.

0:24:09 > 0:24:14Yes, they've had over 30 top-40 hits, Simply Red, but again, only the one number one.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17Now then, Stuart. You're the last person to have this board.

0:24:17 > 0:24:21- Why not take us through it and fill in the blanks?- Well...

0:24:21 > 0:24:23I know that MMMBop was Hanson.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26Cos I was a youngster when that came out.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28A Little Time I've got no clue on.

0:24:28 > 0:24:31I Want It That Way is The Backstreet Boys.

0:24:31 > 0:24:36And the answer I'm going to give is Dare by the Gorillaz.

0:24:36 > 0:24:43Dare by the Gorillaz. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said Gorillaz for Dare.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48Absolutely right.

0:24:53 > 0:24:57- Oh, very well done, indeed, Stuart! - APPLAUSE

0:24:57 > 0:25:01Scores you one. Takes your total up to eight. Very impressive low score.

0:25:01 > 0:25:06- Richard.- Well done, Stuart, the virtual hip-hop group created by Damon Albarn and Shaun Ryder

0:25:06 > 0:25:08was featured on Dare.

0:25:08 > 0:25:12MMMBop, you're absolutely right, was Hanson. It scored 21.

0:25:12 > 0:25:15I loved MMMBop. That's a great song. Guilty pleasure but a great song.

0:25:15 > 0:25:20I Want It That Way, you're right again, Stuart, that was Backstreet Boys. Would've scored you nine.

0:25:20 > 0:25:24- Do you know A Little Time? - The Beautiful South.- The Beautiful South, absolutely right.

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Would've scored four. Well done if you got those. Dare the best answer on the board.

0:25:27 > 0:25:33Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of Round Two, the losing pair, Mel and Pam.

0:25:33 > 0:25:39I suppose it had to come. There had to be a round where you weren't supremely equipped.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42And this, I'm afraid, was that round.

0:25:42 > 0:25:47I'm sorry to say goodbye, it's been great having you on the show, you've brought colour to the thing.

0:25:47 > 0:25:51- Thanks very much for playing. Mel and Pam, great contestants. - APPLAUSE

0:25:53 > 0:25:57But for the remaining two pairs, things are about to get more exciting in the head-to-head.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59APPLAUSE

0:26:03 > 0:26:05Congratulations, Derek and Stuart, Paul and Steve,

0:26:05 > 0:26:09you're now only one round away from the final and the chance to play for that jackpot,

0:26:09 > 0:26:13which in case you've forgotten, currently stands at £9,750.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16AUDIENCE: Ooh!

0:26:16 > 0:26:18APPLAUSE

0:26:18 > 0:26:20You're now going to go head-to-head.

0:26:20 > 0:26:24And the first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27The great news is, from here on in you are allowed to confer,

0:26:27 > 0:26:29so you can start playing as teams.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32I think we're set for a very exciting head-to-head.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35- Let's play it. - APPLAUSE

0:26:39 > 0:26:42OK, here comes your first question. And it concerns...

0:26:44 > 0:26:47Twentieth Century Playwrights, Richard.

0:26:47 > 0:26:53We're about to show you five pictures of twentieth century playwrights. We simply need their names, please.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56OK. Here they come, five pictures of twentieth century playwrights, and we have got...

0:27:12 > 0:27:14OK. There they are.

0:27:14 > 0:27:19Derek and Stuart, you've played best throughout the show so far, so you go first.

0:27:19 > 0:27:23I don't know any of them. What do you think?

0:27:23 > 0:27:25The faces are not ringing any bells at all.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28D looks very familiar, but I cannot think of his name.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31- Stab in the dark?- OK.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35We're going to try A and we're going to have a stab in the dark and say Arthur Miller.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39Arthur Miller you're saying for A, Arthur Miller.

0:27:39 > 0:27:43OK, Paul and Steve. You can talk us through the board.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45A is Noel Coward.

0:27:45 > 0:27:48D is Peter Ustinov.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51C I think is Tom Stoppard.

0:27:51 > 0:27:55- I don't know the other two. - No.- We'll go D, Peter Ustinov.

0:27:55 > 0:28:01OK, D, Peter Ustinov. So we have Arthur Miller and Peter Ustinov.

0:28:01 > 0:28:06A, Arthur Miller, say Derek and Stuart. Is it right, how many people said it?

0:28:09 > 0:28:11Bad luck, an incorrect answer,

0:28:11 > 0:28:15which means, Paul and Steve, you only have to be correct with D, Peter Ustinov

0:28:15 > 0:28:20and you will win this question. D, Peter Ustinov, is it right, how many people said it?

0:28:23 > 0:28:25Absolutely right. You've done it.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29- 40. - APPLAUSE

0:28:31 > 0:28:3640. Very well done. Which means after one question, Paul and Steve, you are up one-nil. Richard.

0:28:36 > 0:28:40Yeah, good work, Steve. Not primarily known as a playwright, of course, Peter Ustinov,

0:28:40 > 0:28:43but did write a couple of plays, including Romanoff and Juliet.

0:28:43 > 0:28:46Erm, and Steve, you've given us a couple of the other answers.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48A, not Arthur Miller but Noel Coward.

0:28:48 > 0:28:52Big scorer, though, 49 points that would have scored you.

0:28:52 > 0:28:56B is a pointless answer. Do you know B, the writer of Serious Money?

0:28:56 > 0:28:58- Caryl Churchill.- Ah.

0:28:58 > 0:29:01Very well done if you said Caryl Churchill at home, that's a pointless answer.

0:29:01 > 0:29:05C, you're right again, Steve, it's Tom Stoppard.

0:29:05 > 0:29:09Would have scored 17. That just leaves E. Any ideas on E?

0:29:09 > 0:29:14- Samuel Beckett.- Samuel Beckett. Absolutely right. Writer of Waiting For Godot. Six points.

0:29:14 > 0:29:17Well done to anyone who got all five of those. Very impressive.

0:29:17 > 0:29:20Thanks very much indeed. Here comes your second question.

0:29:20 > 0:29:23Derek and Stuart, you have to win this question to stay in the game.

0:29:23 > 0:29:25Best of luck. It concerns...

0:29:29 > 0:29:33- Richard.- Quite simply, we're going to show you five clues to facts about the state of California.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36OK. Here come our five facts. And we have got...

0:29:46 > 0:29:48I'll read those one last time.

0:29:57 > 0:30:00Now, Paul and Steve, you go first this time.

0:30:03 > 0:30:08We're going to go for the governor from 2003 to 2011.

0:30:08 > 0:30:10And we're going to go for Arnold Schwarzenegger.

0:30:10 > 0:30:12The Governator. Yep.

0:30:12 > 0:30:16OK. Arnold Schwarzenegger, say Paul and Steve.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19Now then, Derek and Stuart, you can talk us through the board if you like.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21Well, we're not quite sure about the century,

0:30:21 > 0:30:23or the highest mountain, or indeed the time zone.

0:30:23 > 0:30:28The time zone, I'm torn between two so I'm going to go for the one we're both 200 percent on.

0:30:28 > 0:30:31- That's 400 percent between you. - That's a lot. - LAUGHTER

0:30:31 > 0:30:36It better be right, then. We're going to go for the state capital and Sacramento.

0:30:36 > 0:30:40Sacramento, you're going to say, as the state capital.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43So we have Arnold Schwarzenegger and we have Sacramento.

0:30:43 > 0:30:48Paul and Steve are saying Arnold Schwarzenegger as the governor from 2003 to 2011.

0:30:48 > 0:30:51Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.

0:30:52 > 0:30:54Absolutely right.

0:30:55 > 0:30:59- 60. - APPLAUSE

0:31:02 > 0:31:05Derek and Stuart are going for Sacramento as the state capital.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08Let's see if that's right and how many people said it if it is.

0:31:11 > 0:31:14Absolutely right. Will it beat 60?

0:31:14 > 0:31:16Yep. You've done it!

0:31:17 > 0:31:1911!

0:31:19 > 0:31:23- Very well done indeed. - APPLAUSE

0:31:23 > 0:31:27Derek and Stuart, you're back in the game. After two questions, it's one point each.

0:31:27 > 0:31:30- Richard.- Yeah, well done, gents. A good head-to-head building up here.

0:31:30 > 0:31:33Let's take a look through the rest of them.

0:31:33 > 0:31:36The century it entered the union was the 19th.

0:31:36 > 0:31:39Would've scored you 17 points.

0:31:39 > 0:31:42Erm, what time zones were you deciding between?

0:31:42 > 0:31:47I don't even know if they're right, but I was torn between Pacific Standard and Pacific Central.

0:31:47 > 0:31:50Yeah, just Pacific. Pacific would have been specific enough.

0:31:50 > 0:31:5313 points. And the state's highest mountain?

0:31:53 > 0:31:56It's Mount Whitney, best answer on the board for three points.

0:31:56 > 0:31:59OK. Now then, here comes the decider.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02Question number three. Whoever wins this question goes through to the final

0:32:02 > 0:32:05and plays for the jackpot of £9,750. Best of luck.

0:32:05 > 0:32:08Our third question concerns...

0:32:12 > 0:32:15- Card games. Richard. - For this decisive question, we're going to show you

0:32:15 > 0:32:18the names of five card games in anagram form.

0:32:18 > 0:32:22Can you unscramble them and pick the most obscure? Very best of luck, both teams.

0:32:22 > 0:32:25OK, let's reveal our five card games in anagram form.

0:32:25 > 0:32:27And we have got...

0:32:33 > 0:32:35I'll read those again.

0:32:40 > 0:32:44Now then, Derek and Stuart, you go first this time.

0:32:45 > 0:32:49- What you thinking? - THEY WHISPER

0:32:51 > 0:32:56Right, we're going to go for A CRAB ACT and say Baccarat.

0:32:56 > 0:33:00Baccarat. OK. Baccarat, say Derek and Stuart.

0:33:00 > 0:33:04Paul and Steve, you can do your thinking out loud now if you like.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07We know them all.

0:33:07 > 0:33:11Yeah. Top one's poker, second one is pinochle,

0:33:11 > 0:33:13next one is bridge, then Newmarket.

0:33:13 > 0:33:19- Oh! Pinochle.- Pinochle, you're going to say. Pinochle.

0:33:19 > 0:33:21So we have baccarat and we have pinochle.

0:33:21 > 0:33:24Derek and Stuart said baccarat. How many people said that?

0:33:26 > 0:33:28Absolutely right.

0:33:32 > 0:33:35- 22. - APPLAUSE

0:33:37 > 0:33:4222. Not bad for baccarat. Paul and Steve, this is the decider.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45This will tell us who goes through to the final.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48Pinochle, you are saying. It has to be right and it has to go lower than 22.

0:33:48 > 0:33:50How many of our 100 people said pinochle?

0:33:53 > 0:33:55Absolutely right.

0:33:58 > 0:34:00Oh, and you've done it!

0:34:00 > 0:34:04- Four! Very, very well done, Paul and Steve. - APPLAUSE

0:34:06 > 0:34:09Very, very, very exciting head-to-head.

0:34:09 > 0:34:12But at the end of it, Paul and Steve, you have won, two-one.

0:34:12 > 0:34:15- You go through to the final. Richard.- Great head-to-head,

0:34:15 > 0:34:16Well done, Paul and Steve, terrific work.

0:34:16 > 0:34:21The best answer on the board, as well. So you could not have chosen better. You knew them all.

0:34:21 > 0:34:25OK REP, you're right, is poker. That would have scored you 76.

0:34:25 > 0:34:30EG BIRD is bridge, that would have scored you 56.

0:34:30 > 0:34:34And the next best answer, KNEW A TERM, Newmarket, seven.

0:34:34 > 0:34:39Thanks, Richard. So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, I'm afraid, Derek and Stuart.

0:34:39 > 0:34:42Played fantastically well throughout the show,

0:34:42 > 0:34:46and then you came up against Paul and Steve in that very impressive anagram round.

0:34:46 > 0:34:50I'm afraid this is the end of the road and goodbye. Thanks for playing, Derek and Stuart.

0:34:50 > 0:34:53APPLAUSE

0:34:55 > 0:34:58But for Paul and Steve, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00APPLAUSE

0:35:02 > 0:35:07Congratulations, Paul and Steve. You fought off the competition and have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:13 > 0:35:15You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:35:15 > 0:35:19At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £9,750.

0:35:19 > 0:35:22CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:35:22 > 0:35:25Well, I have to say, that's how you do it.

0:35:25 > 0:35:29We've had fireworks from other people who've had lots of low scores

0:35:29 > 0:35:34and then quite high scores, but you've been consistent and solid the whole way through.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37- We've been on a bit of a journey, haven't we?- We certainly have.

0:35:37 > 0:35:41- A lot of stops on the way.- Yes. - Thankfully we didn't get out at every single one of them.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44- LAUGHTER - But it's been fun. And you've dazzled us

0:35:44 > 0:35:46with a broad base of expertise.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49So, the rules are very simple. To win that money,

0:35:49 > 0:35:52all you have to do is find a pointless answer.

0:35:52 > 0:35:55We've had one pointless answer today. That was Mel's.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57If you can find one more now, you will go home with the money.

0:35:57 > 0:36:01Firstly you've got to choose a category. You have a choice of five options and they are...

0:36:09 > 0:36:13- Golf didn't come up.- No. - THEY LAUGH

0:36:13 > 0:36:17Politics not my favourite, so don't go for that.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20What about American Actors?

0:36:20 > 0:36:23- What do you want? - Well, we both said American Actors.

0:36:23 > 0:36:26- Yeah?- Right.

0:36:26 > 0:36:28We're going to both go for American Actors.

0:36:28 > 0:36:30OK. Let's find out what our question is.

0:36:30 > 0:36:34We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name

0:36:34 > 0:36:39as many Jeff Goldblum films as they could. Jeff Goldblum films.

0:36:39 > 0:36:42- Richard.- Yes, any feature film made for cinema release

0:36:42 > 0:36:47for which Jeff Goldblum has received an acting credit prior to May 2012.

0:36:47 > 0:36:51No short films, TV films or documentaries, but voice performances do count. Best of luck to you both.

0:36:51 > 0:36:55OK, you now have up to one minute to come up with three answers

0:36:55 > 0:37:00and all you need to win that £9,750 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:37:00 > 0:37:02Are you ready?

0:37:02 > 0:37:05OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07There they are. Your time starts now.

0:37:07 > 0:37:10I only know The Fly. That's the only one I know.

0:37:10 > 0:37:14- You're done? The Fly?- Yeah. That's all I know, The Fly, yeah.

0:37:14 > 0:37:16- He was in Jurassic Park, wasn't he? - Yes.

0:37:16 > 0:37:20- He was in Jurassic Park. - Jurassic Park, The Fly and...

0:37:20 > 0:37:22It's a difficult one.

0:37:24 > 0:37:28- Everybody will be screaming at the telly now.- Yeah, I know.

0:37:28 > 0:37:30I feel such a fool. Erm...

0:37:30 > 0:37:33Was there a Fly II?

0:37:33 > 0:37:36- Yeah, there was a Fly II. Erm... - HE LAUGHS

0:37:36 > 0:37:38I don't think he was in it.

0:37:42 > 0:37:45We're struggling on this one, aren't we?

0:37:47 > 0:37:51- We are.- What about that one where they take that dead body to...

0:37:51 > 0:37:53- No.- No. - HE LAUGHS

0:37:53 > 0:37:57What about the one with, erm...

0:37:57 > 0:38:00- Ten seconds.- Say it if you want. - Yeah, go on, then.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03- It'll be popular. - Yeah, I know, yeah.

0:38:03 > 0:38:07Yeah, go on, that's it. What we going to go for, then?

0:38:07 > 0:38:11- What you just said.- Aye. - OK, there is your time up.

0:38:11 > 0:38:14We were looking for Jeff Goldblum films. I now need your three answers.

0:38:14 > 0:38:17- We're going to go for The Fly. - The Fly.

0:38:17 > 0:38:21- Erm, Jurassic Park.- Jurassic Park.

0:38:21 > 0:38:24And I thought When Harry Met Sally.

0:38:24 > 0:38:26And When Harry Met Sally.

0:38:26 > 0:38:30OK. Of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:30 > 0:38:34- When Harry Met Sally.- The...- Oh, you think...- Yeah, cos I don't think When Harry Met Sally is right.

0:38:34 > 0:38:41- Right.- I'm going to go for The Fly. - The Fly we'll put last.

0:38:41 > 0:38:45- Which should we put first? Which is your least likely? - When Harry Met Sally.- Yeah.

0:38:45 > 0:38:49OK, we'll put that first. Let's put them up on the board in that order. Here they are.

0:38:54 > 0:38:57OK, we were looking for Jeff Goldblum films.

0:38:57 > 0:39:02Your first answer, your least confident shot at a pointless answer was When Harry Met Sally.

0:39:02 > 0:39:05Remember, you only have to find one pointless answer to win that jackpot

0:39:05 > 0:39:07of £9,750. So let's see.

0:39:07 > 0:39:12When Harry Met Sally. Is it right? How many people said it?

0:39:14 > 0:39:16Ooh. Bad luck.

0:39:16 > 0:39:21OK, an incorrect answer as it turns out, so obviously not pointless.

0:39:21 > 0:39:23So only two more chances to win today's jackpot.

0:39:23 > 0:39:27Paul, what would you do with £9,750?

0:39:27 > 0:39:32Er, I'd probably go do a lot of railway travelling abroad

0:39:32 > 0:39:35and try and get a lot of the stations in the European countries.

0:39:35 > 0:39:39- That's what I would like to do. - OK. Steve, how about you?

0:39:39 > 0:39:43- I think I'd buy him a new anorak. - LAUGHTER

0:39:43 > 0:39:46APPLAUSE

0:39:48 > 0:39:53- That was quick.- Oh, that'd be quite a nice anorak, I'd have thought.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56- Oh, it'd be a...- Ooh! - THEY LAUGH

0:39:56 > 0:39:59OK, we're looking for Jeff Goldblum films

0:39:59 > 0:40:01Let's hope nobody said your next answer, Jurassic Park.

0:40:01 > 0:40:06Has to be right, has to be pointless. If it's both of those things, you leave here with £9,750.

0:40:06 > 0:40:09Let's see. Jurassic Park. How many people said it?

0:40:12 > 0:40:16OK, well, When Harry Met Sally turned out to be an incorrect answer

0:40:16 > 0:40:18but Jurassic Park, very much correct.

0:40:18 > 0:40:21Down it goes into the 40s. Ooh, 42.

0:40:21 > 0:40:23- APPLAUSE - 42.

0:40:23 > 0:40:27OK, so only one more chance to win today's jackpot.

0:40:27 > 0:40:30Everything is now riding on The Fly.

0:40:30 > 0:40:34You came up with The Fly quite quickly, didn't you?

0:40:34 > 0:40:37- Have you thought of any other Jeff Goldblum films?- No.- OK.

0:40:37 > 0:40:41- That's...- Well, that's a relief, isn't it?- It certainly is, yes.

0:40:41 > 0:40:45OK, your third and final answer, The Fly. You said this was your most confident shot at a pointless.

0:40:45 > 0:40:48It has to be pointless if you're going to win that jackpot.

0:40:48 > 0:40:53So, for £9,750, let's see how many people said The Fly.

0:40:55 > 0:40:57Well, it's absolutely right.

0:40:57 > 0:41:00When Harry Met Sally was an incorrect answer.

0:41:00 > 0:41:02Jurassic Park down to 42.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04- 55 for The Fly. - APPLAUSE

0:41:07 > 0:41:12Well, unfortunately, you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer.

0:41:12 > 0:41:14That was a really, really tricky category.

0:41:14 > 0:41:18But you do get to take home our fabulous Pointless trophy, so very well done.

0:41:18 > 0:41:20- Thank you.- Thank you.

0:41:20 > 0:41:24APPLAUSE

0:41:24 > 0:41:27Yeah, it's a real shame. You've been terrific across both shows.

0:41:27 > 0:41:29It's been a real pleasure having you on.

0:41:29 > 0:41:33Let's look at some of the pointless answers. Some big films in there.

0:41:33 > 0:41:37Annie Hall, the Woody Allen film. Holy Man with Eddie Murphy.

0:41:37 > 0:41:40Igby Goes Down. He plays Kieran Culkin's godfather in that.

0:41:41 > 0:41:44Invasion Of The Body Snatchers, the 1978 version.

0:41:44 > 0:41:48Man Of The Year with Robin Williams. Morning Glory alongside Harrison Ford from 2010.

0:41:48 > 0:41:54He's in the western Silverado. The Big Chill from 1983 he's in.

0:41:54 > 0:41:56And The Right Stuff he's also in.

0:41:56 > 0:41:59For train guards, you could've had Next Stop, Greenwich Village.

0:41:59 > 0:42:03And Paul, you'll know this, I don't know if this is actually a station,

0:42:03 > 0:42:06but St Ives would've been an answer. Is there a station at St Ives?

0:42:06 > 0:42:10- Yeah. It's one of my favourite stations. - LAUGHTER

0:42:10 > 0:42:15Choosing your favourite station's not a great way to win Pointless. LAUGHTER

0:42:15 > 0:42:20Although it would've just won you £9,750, but quite a random way of doing it.

0:42:20 > 0:42:24- Did you know any of those pointless ones?- I didn't.- No.

0:42:24 > 0:42:28Good. Well, that's a relief. Unfortunately, Paul and Steve, we have to say goodbye,

0:42:28 > 0:42:33but it's been an enormous pleasure having you on the show. You have been fantastic across both shows.

0:42:33 > 0:42:37- Thank you both so much for playing. Very well done. Paul and Steve. - APPLAUSE

0:42:39 > 0:42:44So Paul and Steve didn't win our jackpot today, which means it rolls over onto the next show

0:42:44 > 0:42:47when we will be playing for £10,750.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:42:49 > 0:42:53Join us then to see if someone can win it. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.

0:42:53 > 0:42:55- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.

0:42:55 > 0:42:59APPLAUSE
