0:00:15 > 0:00:18APPLAUSE

0:00:21 > 0:00:25Thank you very much. Hello, I am Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:25 > 0:00:28the quiz show where the aim of the game is to score as few points as you can.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30To do that, you need to come up with the answers

0:00:30 > 0:00:33that no-one else could think of. Let's meet today's players.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39First up, we welcome back Liz and Autumn.

0:00:39 > 0:00:41You were on the show last time.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44Remember, everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46This is your second and final chance to do so.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48Remind us how you know each other.

0:00:48 > 0:00:52We met doing some charity work about five or six years ago.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55When that was finished, we remained the best of friends.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57Autumn, what happened last time?

0:00:57 > 0:00:59We got through to the second round,

0:00:59 > 0:01:01but then we just didn't know our famous Johns.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04Your famous Johns. They eluded you.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07Now, Liz, what are you hoping is going to come up today?

0:01:07 > 0:01:11- I would like something to do with words.- OK, you like a word round.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14- Maybe royalty, I've met a few of them in my time.- Who have you met?

0:01:14 > 0:01:17I've met the Queen, Prince Charles, Princess Diana twice,

0:01:17 > 0:01:20I've met Princess Margaret, Princess Anne.

0:01:20 > 0:01:25You know them all! Autumn, what do you hope is going to come up today?

0:01:25 > 0:01:27Food and drink or geography.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30Well, it was round two last time, let's hope we see more of you today.

0:01:30 > 0:01:33Very best of luck. Next, we welcome Matt and Tom K.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Have you know each other?

0:01:35 > 0:01:40- We met on holiday. We were in Amsterdam.- Oh, yeah.- Nothing funny.

0:01:40 > 0:01:47- Famous for cycling.- And museums. And its canals.- All of that.- Yes.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50- What do you do, Matt? - I work for English National Ballet.

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Do you, now? Very exciting indeed. How about you, Tom, what you do?

0:01:54 > 0:01:56- I am a trainee mortician.- Wow!

0:01:56 > 0:01:59- That's a first.- Wow!

0:02:00 > 0:02:04- How long have you been training? - Only about six months.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08- ONLY about six months. - Yes, it's a very GRAVE undertaking!

0:02:08 > 0:02:10- GROANING - OK, that's good. This is good.

0:02:10 > 0:02:14A trainee mortician. That's brilliant.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17I suspect that's probably not the last we've heard of that.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20What are you hoping is going to come today, Matt?

0:02:20 > 0:02:24- We like music, films, things like that.- OK. Music, films. Tom?

0:02:24 > 0:02:27- We're both in a rock band. - Of course you are!- Of course we are!

0:02:27 > 0:02:33- Now Matt's hair is beginning to make perfect sense.- Ballet. Morticians.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37- Hair. Band. Good. What is the band called?- Stranger Danger.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43- Stranger Danger.- That's right. - Very good indeed. Stranger Danger.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46Listen, great to have you on the show. Very best of luck.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49Next we welcome back Chris and Joe. You were on the show last time.

0:02:49 > 0:02:50How do you know each other?

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Through college, so we've known each other about 4.5 years now.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55What happened last time, Joe?

0:02:55 > 0:02:58We got to the head-to-head and it was Art

0:02:58 > 0:03:02and Morecambe and Wise and we just guessed and got 200.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05- They weren't really read your categories, were they?- No.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07What are you hoping is going to come up today, Chris?

0:03:07 > 0:03:10- I'm going to say history or science. Maybe a bit of politics.- OK.

0:03:10 > 0:03:14- Jo, anything you are really hoping doesn't come up?- What he said.

0:03:14 > 0:03:18OK, well, listen, very best of luck. You did very well last time.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21We've got to hope you do even better today.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25Finally, we welcome back Tom and Mara, who were also on the show last time.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28- Remind us how you know each other. - We go to university together

0:03:28 > 0:03:30and we re flatmates as well.

0:03:30 > 0:03:34- Right you are. And Mara, what happened last time?- I spoke!

0:03:35 > 0:03:38And I got 100 points. And now we're back again.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41- You confused radium and radon. - I did.

0:03:41 > 0:03:45That's what you did. Ah! So many scientists have done that in the past!

0:03:47 > 0:03:50What you hope is going to happen today, Tom?

0:03:50 > 0:03:53Ideally, I would love South American football to come up.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55I spent a bit of time in Argentina last year,

0:03:55 > 0:03:58and I would say that was my speciality.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Mara, is there anything that you think would be the dream category for you?

0:04:01 > 0:04:03- Some film could be good.- Some film.

0:04:03 > 0:04:07Literature might be quite good for me.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10Well, a very warm welcome back to the show. Round one last time.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13Hope to progress further than that this time. Very best of luck to you.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16We'll find out more about you throughout the show.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18There's only one person left to introduce.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21If facts are your starter and obscurity is your main course,

0:04:21 > 0:04:23then he's a great big pudding.

0:04:23 > 0:04:27- It's my Pointless friend, here's Richard.- Hi. Hello.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33- How are you?- I'm very well.

0:04:33 > 0:04:36It's one of those lovely shows where we've got three returning pairs.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39Everyone's quite familiar. It's quite nice.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42It's like having old friends round. Except there's one new pair.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45- Oh, yes.- Stranger Danger.- Yes.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48But we saw Chris and Joe go all the way to the head-to-head, so they

0:04:48 > 0:04:51are the team to beat, but Tom and Mara we didn't see very much of.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54I think round one will certainly suit Tom a bit better on today's show,

0:04:54 > 0:04:56so they might go a little bit further.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59Very good indeed. Let's hope so. Thanks, Richard.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02All our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04In order to get through to the final round

0:05:04 > 0:05:06and be in with a chance of winning the jackpot,

0:05:06 > 0:05:09our contestants need to find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11The fewer of the 100 people who knew the answer,

0:05:11 > 0:05:13the fewer points you'll score.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16What everyone's trying to do is find a pointless answer.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18That's an answer none of our 100 people knew.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Each time that happens, we'll add £250 to the jackpot.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Nobody won the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that,

0:05:24 > 0:05:28so today's jackpot starts off at £2,000.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34If everybody's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43In this first round, each of you must give me one answer,

0:05:43 > 0:05:45and you cannot confer.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48Whichever pair has the highest score, will be eliminated,

0:05:48 > 0:05:51so try and make sure that's not you. Our category for round one today is...

0:05:54 > 0:05:56Sporting events.

0:05:56 > 0:06:00Can you all decide in your pairs who is going to go first and second?

0:06:00 > 0:06:02Whoever's going first, step up to the podium.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07OK, and the question concerns...

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Richard.

0:06:14 > 0:06:15Yes, for this question,

0:06:15 > 0:06:18Xander's going to put up six sporting events held in the UK.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21We need you to tell us anybody who won any of those events,

0:06:21 > 0:06:24please, between January 2000 and the end of 2011.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26So, six events up there.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30Anyone who won any of those between January 2000 and the end of 2011.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33- Very best of luck. - OK, thanks very much.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36Liz and Autumn, you all drew lots before the show today.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39You are going to go first. Our six sporting events are...

0:06:53 > 0:06:55I'll read those all one last time.

0:07:10 > 0:07:15Now, Liz, you are looking for any winner of any of these sporting events since 2000.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19- A nice obscure one. How good is this for you?- It's not very good.

0:07:19 > 0:07:23I'm going to have to go with tennis,

0:07:23 > 0:07:28because it's the only sport I really watch, and I'll go with...

0:07:28 > 0:07:32- Venus Williams.- Venus Williams says Liz. Venus Williams.

0:07:32 > 0:07:36Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said Venus Williams.

0:07:38 > 0:07:39Absolutely right.

0:07:44 > 0:07:4615.

0:07:48 > 0:07:52- Seems pretty good to me, Liz. 15 for Venus Williams.- Well done, Liz.

0:07:52 > 0:07:53Good answer from the first podium.

0:07:53 > 0:08:01She win in 2000, 2001, 2005, 2007 and 2008 during this period.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04Very good indeed. Now then, Tom. Tom K.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09- I hate sport!- OK.

0:08:12 > 0:08:18I'm going to have to wing it, I'm afraid, and I think that Steve Davis

0:08:18 > 0:08:22is a snooker player, so I m going to say Steve Davis.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Steve Davis says Tom K.

0:08:25 > 0:08:26Steve Davis.

0:08:26 > 0:08:30Let's see that's right and how many of our 100 said Steve Davis.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Bad luck, Tom. Bad luck.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,

0:08:38 > 0:08:41which means you score a maximum of 100 points.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43- Very sorry. Richard.- Sorry, Tom.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46He is a snooker player, and a very good one,

0:08:46 > 0:08:48but hasn't win the world title since 1989.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52You never know. You never know.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56- Well, you do, don't you? - Sometimes you do.

0:08:56 > 0:09:00- Now, then, Chris.- Alexander.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04Chris. What are you thinking?

0:09:04 > 0:09:05- This is good for you, isn't it?- It's OK.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09I think I can name one or two from each category.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11It is just depending which one I go for.

0:09:11 > 0:09:15I'm going to go snooker again, and I think I'm going to go with John Higgins.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18John Higgins says Chris. Let's see if it's right.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21Let's see how many of our 100 said John Higgins.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25Absolutely right.

0:09:30 > 0:09:3211! Very well done, Chris.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37Good answer. John Higgins.

0:09:37 > 0:09:43- Well played, Chris. He won in 2007, 2009 and 2011.- Now, then, Tom.

0:09:43 > 0:09:44Here we go.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47There s a few there that I'm tempted by,

0:09:47 > 0:09:49but they're not my favourite sports.

0:09:49 > 0:09:54But I'm going to go snooker again and say Ronnie O'Sullivan.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56Ronnie O'Sullivan says Tom R. Ronnie O'Sullivan.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59Let's see if it's right and how many said Ronnie O'Sullivan.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Absolutely right.

0:10:07 > 0:10:0829.

0:10:13 > 0:10:16- 29 for Ronnie O'Sullivan. - Yes, 2001, 2004 and 2008.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19Also won in 2012, but that's not included in this poll.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22OK, thanks very much, Richard. We re halfway through the round.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24Let's take a look at the scores as they stand.

0:10:24 > 0:10:25Well, 11,

0:10:25 > 0:10:29the best score of the pass, so Chris and Joe looking very strong on that.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31Up to 15, where we find Liz and Autumn

0:10:31 > 0:10:33looking very strong also.

0:10:33 > 0:10:37Then up to 29, where Tom and Mara are.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40And then, I'm afraid it's up to 100 for Tom K and Matt.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43You heard what he said. There are pointless answers there.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45Maybe you can find a pointless answer.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47Maybe you can even find a correct answer.

0:10:47 > 0:10:52- I hate sport more than him. - What, more than you hate him?!- Yeah.

0:10:54 > 0:10:55Well, think hard.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57Maybe inspiration will suddenly dawn on you.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00Very best of luck with that. We're going to come back down the line.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Can the second players take their places at the podium?

0:11:05 > 0:11:08Right, Mara, you're on 29.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11The high scorers are Matt and Tom K on 100.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14If you can score 70 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:11:14 > 0:11:20OK. I am going to go for Wimbledon Men's Singles final

0:11:20 > 0:11:22and Novak Djokovic.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25Novak Djokovic you are saying.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28Novak Djokovic. There is your red line.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31If you can get below that red line, you are through to the next round.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34Is it right? How many people said it? Novak Djokovic.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41You're through to the next round! Very well done, Mara!

0:11:43 > 0:11:45Oh, that's how you do it!

0:11:45 > 0:11:48Very well done indeed.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50Take note, Tom R.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54- 2, you scored, takes your total up to 31. Richard?- Well done.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57Safely through. Better than last time.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Novak Djokovic always scores surprisingly low.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01It's one of those names

0:12:01 > 0:12:04that hasn't quite entered the public consciousness

0:12:04 > 0:12:05despite his achievements.

0:12:05 > 0:12:09Very much the Central African Republic of tennis players.

0:12:09 > 0:12:12Now, then, Joe, you're on 11.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14Matt and Tom K remain the high scorers on 100.

0:12:14 > 0:12:15If you can score 88 or less,

0:12:15 > 0:12:18you are through to the next round.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20I think you might be able to do that.

0:12:20 > 0:12:22I think I've got an Open winner,

0:12:22 > 0:12:26but I think I'm going to go Wimbledon and Maria Sharapova.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29Maria Sharapova says Joe. Maria Sharapova.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32Is it right? How many people said Maria Sharapova?

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Absolutely right, and you're through.

0:12:41 > 0:12:436!

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Great score, Joe.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48It takes your total to 17. Richard.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52Yes, she won in 2004, Joe. She's an avid stamp collector.

0:12:52 > 0:12:53I did not know that.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56Now, then, Matt, we are looking for the winners of any

0:12:56 > 0:12:59of these UK sporting events since 2000.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02- You're the high-scorers on 100. - We are.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04I've got to do something good.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07I've remembered that I quite like Formula One

0:13:07 > 0:13:10and my brother works for a Formula One team,

0:13:10 > 0:13:14so I should be able to pluck something all right,

0:13:14 > 0:13:17so I'm going to say Mark Webber.

0:13:17 > 0:13:21Mark Webber, says Matt. Mark Webber.

0:13:21 > 0:13:22Let's see that's right

0:13:22 > 0:13:24and if it is, how many of our 100 people said it.

0:13:24 > 0:13:28There is no guideline for you because you are the highest scorers. Mark Webber.

0:13:31 > 0:13:32It's right.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38Oh, I think this is a very good answer. Look at that!

0:13:38 > 0:13:39It's a brilliant answer, Matt.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42- Well played.- Very well done.

0:13:42 > 0:13:48- That takes your total to 102. Richard.- Yes, well played, Matt.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51- What team does your brother work for?- Williams.- Williams.

0:13:51 > 0:13:56Mark Webber, of course, is Red Bull and won the British Grand Prix in 2010.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59Thanks very much, Richard. Now then, Autumn.

0:13:59 > 0:14:04Autumn, the high scorers are Matt and Tom K on 102. You're on 15.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07A score of 86 will see you into the next round.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09Is this good for you at all?

0:14:09 > 0:14:11Not particularly,

0:14:11 > 0:14:15but there's a couple of names that are coming to the front of my head.

0:14:15 > 0:14:20- We'll go Formula One, Jenson Button. - Jenson Button, says Autumn.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.

0:14:25 > 0:14:26Oh, no!

0:14:29 > 0:14:31Oh, there's a lifeline, Matt and Tom.

0:14:31 > 0:14:35Autumn, I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer. That scores you the maximum

0:14:35 > 0:14:39of 100 points, and that takes your total up to an unbeatable 115.

0:14:39 > 0:14:40Bad luck.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43Sorry, Autumn, he won the Formula One Drivers Championship

0:14:43 > 0:14:44but not the British Grand Prix.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47A good wrong answer, if you know what I mean.

0:14:47 > 0:14:51Let's look at some of the pointless answers. Other than Paula Radcliffe,

0:14:51 > 0:14:53anyone who's won the London Marathon

0:14:53 > 0:14:56is a pointless answer, but let's look at the other sports.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Ben Curtis won the Open in 2003.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Two famous tennis players there.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Goran Ivanisevic and Lleyton Hewitt.

0:15:02 > 0:15:06They won Wimbledon in 2001 and 2002, both pointless.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Louis Oosthuizen, he's a pointless answer,

0:15:09 > 0:15:11even though he won the Open in 2010.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14There's Martin Lel, the Kenyan marathon runner.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Petra Kvitova, the female tennis player.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Won Wimbledon in 2011.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21Rubens Barrichello, Juan Pablo Montoya also would have been

0:15:21 > 0:15:24a pointless answer.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27Ruby Walsh, who won the Grand National.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30Stewart Cink, another British Open winner.

0:15:30 > 0:15:34There's some more pointless answers, especially the jockeys.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37Jason Maguire, Richard Guest, Timmy Murphy, would have been pointless.

0:15:37 > 0:15:41- Very well done if you said any of those at home.- OK, thanks, Richard.

0:15:41 > 0:15:46At the end of our first round, the losing pair, I'm sorry, it's Autumn and Liz.

0:15:46 > 0:15:50And you had a pointless answer in your hand there, Autumn!

0:15:50 > 0:15:54And you let it fall. Bad luck. This is where we have to say goodbye.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58It was round two last time, round one this time.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02- But you played very well. Autumn and Liz, thanks so much for playing. - APPLAUSE

0:16:02 > 0:16:06But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.

0:16:10 > 0:16:14So, sadly, at the end of this round, another pair will be leaving us,

0:16:14 > 0:16:17so we only have two pairs for the head-to-head.

0:16:17 > 0:16:20But that first round was very exciting.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22Our category for round two is:

0:16:25 > 0:16:29- Words. Everyone likes words! - That's gone down well.- Hasn't it?

0:16:29 > 0:16:34Can you all decide in your pairs who's going first and who's going second?

0:16:34 > 0:16:37And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:16:39 > 0:16:43OK, let's find out what the question is.

0:16:43 > 0:16:50We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many words ending in '...mb'

0:16:50 > 0:16:55- as they could. Words ending in '..mb'.- We're looking for any word that has its own entry

0:16:55 > 0:16:58in the Oxford Dictionary of English that ends '..mb.'

0:16:58 > 0:17:01As always, no hyphenated words or proper nouns. Very best of luck.

0:17:03 > 0:17:07- Have you got one?- Yeah.- Have you got yours?- Got mine. I've got mine!

0:17:07 > 0:17:11Oh. Now then, Tom K, you are first.

0:17:11 > 0:17:15I'm going to answer this question with aplomb.

0:17:17 > 0:17:21Ha ha! Very good! Very good indeed. Aplomb, says Tom Kay.

0:17:21 > 0:17:26Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many of our 100 people said aplomb.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Very good indeed. It's right.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36- Oh, five. Very well done. - APPLAUSE

0:17:39 > 0:17:42- Very well done, Tom K. Aplomb.- Well done.

0:17:42 > 0:17:47- Self-confidence or assurance, especially when in a demanding situation.- Joe.

0:17:47 > 0:17:52I've got one, but I'm not 100% sure,

0:17:52 > 0:17:54but I'm going to go for it anyway.

0:17:54 > 0:17:58- What are you not sure about? Its spelling?- I know how to spell it and everything,

0:17:58 > 0:18:00but it's got a capital letter, so I don't know...

0:18:00 > 0:18:04- If it's a proper noun, it won't be allowed.- It's a unit.

0:18:04 > 0:18:08- I'm going to go for it. - Sorry. Coulomb.

0:18:08 > 0:18:12- Coulomb.- Yeah.- Don't despair, Chris.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15- I know it's a thing.- It's a thing.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18- It IS a thing.- Nothing wrong with things.- I've heard it as a word.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21- Coulomb.- I'm saying it. - Let's see if it's right

0:18:21 > 0:18:26and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said coulomb.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28It's right.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31- It's right, Joe. - APPLAUSE

0:18:31 > 0:18:34And down it goes.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37- APPLAUSE - Very well done, Joe.

0:18:37 > 0:18:38That's a pointless answer.

0:18:38 > 0:18:42It adds £250 to today's jackpot.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45It takes the total up to £2,250.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48It scores you nothing.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52- Oh, very well done! - Yes, the SI unit of electric charge.

0:18:52 > 0:18:55- It's a terrific answer. Well done. It is with a small C though.- Is it?

0:18:55 > 0:18:58- Yeah.- But terrific with a capital T!

0:18:58 > 0:19:03- In its abbreviated form, it's a capital, but in the full name, it's lower case.- OK, Tom R.

0:19:03 > 0:19:07OK. I don't think I can match that.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09- I'm just going to go for plumb. - Plumb.

0:19:09 > 0:19:13OK. Plumb, says Tom R. Let's see if that's right.

0:19:13 > 0:19:15Let's see how many people said plumb.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19Absolutely right.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26- 17. - APPLAUSE

0:19:29 > 0:19:34- 17 for plumb.- Yes. One Tom answered with aplomb and the other answered with a plumb.

0:19:34 > 0:19:38- Has anyone come up with your answer yet?- No!- You've still got it.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41Oh, yes! I'm going to give it as soon as the round ends.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43The last seven or eight times, you've scored 100.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46LAUGHTER

0:19:46 > 0:19:51- You always go slightly too clever. - Yeah. They're always hyphenated.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Or they don't exist.

0:19:53 > 0:19:56Yeah, often they don't exist.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Ha! This one exists!

0:19:58 > 0:20:03OK, we're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.

0:20:03 > 0:20:07Joe and Chris looking very, very strong indeed after Joe's excellent answer.

0:20:07 > 0:20:11You're on nothing. Up to five, where we find Tom K and Matt.

0:20:11 > 0:20:14And then up to 17, more than three times Tom K and Matt's score,

0:20:14 > 0:20:17we find Tom and Mara.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20Mara, I have a feeling you're going to be absolutely brilliant at this.

0:20:20 > 0:20:24So we'll have a low score from you and we'll have to hope that's enough to keep you in the game.

0:20:24 > 0:20:28OK, can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:20:31 > 0:20:34So we're looking for words ending in '..mb'.

0:20:34 > 0:20:38Mara, you're on 17, you're the high scorers, so we need a lovely low score from you.

0:20:38 > 0:20:43- OK, I've forgotten to spell in the past five minutes.- This happens.

0:20:43 > 0:20:48And I can only come up with really obvious words or a word I'm not sure is real or not.

0:20:48 > 0:20:53- So I'm going to go for the one that I'm not sure is real.- Good. You're playing my kind of game.

0:20:53 > 0:20:59Yeah. And I am going to go for um...

0:20:59 > 0:21:04- catacumb, catacoomb, catacomb. - Catacomb.- There we go. That's the one.- Catacomb.

0:21:04 > 0:21:08OK, there's no red line for you because you are the high scorers.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11You have to hope this goes down as far as it possibly can.

0:21:11 > 0:21:15Catacomb, let's see if it's right and if it is, how many people said catacomb.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19It's absolutely right, Mara.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22I have a feeling this is going to be an excellent score.

0:21:24 > 0:21:25Yes, it is! Look at that! One!

0:21:25 > 0:21:28APPLAUSE

0:21:28 > 0:21:33Takes your total up to 18. Let's hope that's good enough to keep you in the game.

0:21:33 > 0:21:38Great answer. Did everything you could there. It's an underground cemetery built by the Romans.

0:21:38 > 0:21:42Really, our trainee mortician should have got that.

0:21:42 > 0:21:43It was my back-up.

0:21:44 > 0:21:50Thanks very much. Now then, Chris. You're on nothing. The high scorers are Mara and Tom on 18.

0:21:50 > 0:21:56If you can score 17 or less, you are through to the head-to-head for the second time running.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Yeah.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01I'm going to go with the word numb.

0:22:01 > 0:22:06- Numb.- Numb.- OK, best of luck. Numb, how many people said it?

0:22:14 > 0:22:17You've done it! Very well done indeed. 13 for numb.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19APPLAUSE

0:22:21 > 0:22:25- Numb.- Well done. I think Joe thought that was going to go a little bit higher.

0:22:25 > 0:22:30- Surprisingly low score for numb. - Now, Matt. You're on five.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32The high scorers on 18 are Tom and Mara.

0:22:32 > 0:22:36You need to score 12 or less with your answer.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38I'm also going to take inspiration

0:22:38 > 0:22:41from the trainee mortician and go for entomb.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45Ho-ho! Oh, very good! Entomb.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48Let's see if entomb is right, let's see how many people said it.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Oh, it's good.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57Down it goes. You're in the head-to-head.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00- And it's pointless! - APPLAUSE

0:23:00 > 0:23:05Very well done indeed. That adds another £250 to today's jackpot.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07Takes the total up to £2,500.

0:23:07 > 0:23:11It scores you nothing and it leaves your total at five. Very well done.

0:23:11 > 0:23:16Well played, Matt. A terrific round by everyone. The biggest score is 18, which is great work.

0:23:16 > 0:23:21But entomb is a pointless answer. Disentomb also a pointless answer.

0:23:21 > 0:23:27- What was your answer?- Coxcomb. - Do you know, I knew you were going to say that!- Did you?- Yeah.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30I genuinely knew you were going to say that.

0:23:30 > 0:23:34- I've been working with you too long. - You have.- It's a pointless answer.

0:23:34 > 0:23:35Yes! Yes!

0:23:35 > 0:23:39LAUGHTER Let's take a look at a few more pointless answers.

0:23:39 > 0:23:42Backcomb is a pointless answer.

0:23:42 > 0:23:48We heard numb, benumb would have been a pointless answer.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51Breadcrumb, pointless answer.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55There's coulomb. Very well played.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58Entomb, hecatomb, which was a huge public sacrifice.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01A sacrifice of like 100 oxen. That was a hecatomb.

0:24:01 > 0:24:06Hindlimb, and forelimb, both of those pointless. Well done if you said those.

0:24:06 > 0:24:10Iamb and rhomb, which is a rhombohedral crystal.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13- Firebomb as well was a pointless answer.- Very good indeed.

0:24:13 > 0:24:18I know people like the word rounds and I suspect some people would have got some of those.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21- Coxcomb as well, a pointless answer.- Thank you.

0:24:21 > 0:24:25At the end of round two, our losing pair with the highest score,

0:24:25 > 0:24:27it's Mara and Tom.

0:24:27 > 0:24:31And who'd have thought a score of 18 would be our highest score?

0:24:31 > 0:24:35I had high hopes of you going all the way through to the final.

0:24:35 > 0:24:40Mara, Tom, thank you both so much for playing. Great contestants.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42APPLAUSE

0:24:42 > 0:24:46But for the remaining two pairs, things are about to get even more exciting now,

0:24:46 > 0:24:49as we enter the head-to-head.

0:24:54 > 0:24:58Congratulations, Chris and Joe, Matt and Tom. You're now one round away from the final

0:24:58 > 0:25:02and a chance to play for our jackpot, which stands at £2,500.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05APPLAUSE

0:25:05 > 0:25:07OK, you're now going to go head-to-head.

0:25:07 > 0:25:11The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14The difference now is you're allowed to confer.

0:25:14 > 0:25:19- Literally, anything can happen. Let's play the head-to-head. - APPLAUSE

0:25:20 > 0:25:25OK, here comes your first question, and it concerns:

0:25:29 > 0:25:33People whose surnames are American cities. Richard.

0:25:33 > 0:25:37We're about to show you five pictures of famous people. All of their surnames are American cities.

0:25:37 > 0:25:41- Can you name the most obscure? Best of luck.- OK, thanks.

0:25:41 > 0:25:46Let's reveal our five people with American cities for surnames. And here we have got:

0:25:59 > 0:26:04OK, there they are. Five people whose surnames are American cities.

0:26:04 > 0:26:08Chris and Joe, you have played best throughout the show so far.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10You get to go first.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12THEY WHISPER

0:26:14 > 0:26:19We only really know one. And it's B, Johnny Knoxville.

0:26:19 > 0:26:23Johnny Knoxville, B, you are saying. Johnny Knoxville.

0:26:23 > 0:26:27Now then, Matt and Tom K, talk us through the rest of the board.

0:26:27 > 0:26:31I know that D is the bloke off Teachers.

0:26:31 > 0:26:35That doesn't really help us. C is Joaquin Phoenix.

0:26:35 > 0:26:39- And E is Denzel Washington. - OK, are they the only ones you know?

0:26:39 > 0:26:40I don't know the rest.

0:26:40 > 0:26:44Which of C and E do you think is going to be the more obscure?

0:26:44 > 0:26:47What would you most like to see yourself saying on TV?

0:26:47 > 0:26:52- Yeah, Joaquin. - Let's go for Joaquin Phoenix.

0:26:52 > 0:26:56OK, so we have Johnny Knoxville and we have Joaquin Phoenix.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00It does feel good, doesn't it, saying that on TV. Chris and Joe said Johnny Knoxville.

0:27:00 > 0:27:04Let's see if that's right and how many people said it. Johnny Knoxville.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Absolutely right.

0:27:13 > 0:27:17- Nine. - APPLAUSE

0:27:19 > 0:27:22Nine, that's very good indeed.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25Matt and Tom K, that's what you have to beat with Joaquin Phoenix,

0:27:25 > 0:27:28who you have said for C. Let's see if that's right

0:27:28 > 0:27:32and if it is, how many people said Joaquin Phoenix.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35Absolutely right.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40- 29. - APPLAUSE

0:27:40 > 0:27:4120 points between you.

0:27:41 > 0:27:45Chris and Joe the winners, which means after one question,

0:27:45 > 0:27:49- Chris and Joe, you are up one-nil. - If you only knew one of them, it was a good one to know.

0:27:49 > 0:27:53There's only one answer that could have beaten it. It's not A.

0:27:53 > 0:27:57A is the newsreader Mark Austin. Austin, Texas. Would have scored 15.

0:27:57 > 0:28:00D is the answer that would have won it for you.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03He's also from Love Actually, This Life, all sorts of things.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06It's Andrew Lincoln. Would have score eight.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10And E is the biggest answer on the board, Denzel Washington. Washington DC.

0:28:10 > 0:28:14- 53. Lincoln, of course, is Lincoln, Nebraska.- Thank you.

0:28:14 > 0:28:20So here comes your second question. Matt and Tom K, you need to win this question to stay in the game.

0:28:20 > 0:28:21OK, it concerns:

0:28:25 > 0:28:27The Wars of the Roses.

0:28:27 > 0:28:32Five questions leading to facts about the Wars of the Roses. Which of these is the most obscure? Good luck.

0:28:32 > 0:28:37Let's reveal our five clues to facts about the Wars of the Roses. And here they are. We have got:

0:28:50 > 0:28:51I'll read those one last time.

0:29:03 > 0:29:07So there you are. Five clues to facts about the Wars of the Roses.

0:29:07 > 0:29:09Matt and Tom, you go first.

0:29:09 > 0:29:12THEY WHISPER

0:29:17 > 0:29:22We don't know. Shall we go for the House of York's opposing house?

0:29:22 > 0:29:26We know less about this than we thought. I went to the University of York.

0:29:26 > 0:29:30They used to have a tournament against Lancaster.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32So...that would imply that...

0:29:32 > 0:29:35And I also know that the House of Lancaster is the opposing house.

0:29:35 > 0:29:39- At least I think I know. Now I'm doubting myself.- That's your answer?

0:29:39 > 0:29:42- Yeah. Lancaster. - Lancaster was the opposing house.

0:29:42 > 0:29:46- Now then, Chris and Joe. - I know literally none of them.

0:29:46 > 0:29:49- So it's all... - It's all down to you, Chris.

0:29:49 > 0:29:55- I think the century was either 15th or the 16th century.- I'd say 16th.

0:29:55 > 0:29:58The royal dynasty...

0:29:58 > 0:30:00I'm not sure if it's the Tudors.

0:30:00 > 0:30:03- I'm more sure about the century. - Go for the century, then.

0:30:03 > 0:30:07Would you say 15th...? I think it happened... So you're sure but...

0:30:07 > 0:30:08- Yeah!- ..you need to ask me? Right.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11- I think it happened... - Calm down. >

0:30:11 > 0:30:13We're having a tiff. I'm angry.

0:30:13 > 0:30:17I think it happened in 15-something rather than 14-something...

0:30:17 > 0:30:20- But that's the 16th.- If it happened in the 15-something

0:30:20 > 0:30:21that's the 16th century.

0:30:21 > 0:30:25- Right, we'll go that, then.- Are you sure?- Yes.- Promise?- Yes, I promise.

0:30:25 > 0:30:27Pinky?

0:30:27 > 0:30:28Right.

0:30:28 > 0:30:30We're going the 16th century,

0:30:30 > 0:30:33it was the century the wars took place in.

0:30:33 > 0:30:36OK, you're saying the 16th century for the Wars of the Roses.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39So we have from Matt and Tom K the House of Lancaster,

0:30:39 > 0:30:41and from Chris and Joe the 16th century.

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Matt and Tom K, this is the question you have to win.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47You have said the House of Lancaster was the opposing House to York.

0:30:47 > 0:30:50Let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it. Lancaster.

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

0:30:56 > 0:30:5745.

0:30:57 > 0:31:00APPLAUSE

0:31:00 > 0:31:0145.

0:31:01 > 0:31:05Chris and Joe, you have said the 16th century

0:31:05 > 0:31:08was when the Wars of the Roses took place.

0:31:08 > 0:31:11Let's see if it's right and if it is, how many people said the 16th century.

0:31:15 > 0:31:18Ooh! Bad luck, Chris and Joe, that's an incorrect answer,

0:31:18 > 0:31:21so after two questions, Matt and Tom K, you are back in the game.

0:31:21 > 0:31:23It's 1-1. Richard?

0:31:23 > 0:31:26Yeah, it was the 15th century, I'm afraid

0:31:26 > 0:31:29fought intermittently between about 1455 and '85.

0:31:29 > 0:31:32Would've scored 15 points, would've seen you in the final.

0:31:32 > 0:31:34And if you'd said House of Tudor,

0:31:34 > 0:31:36that would've seen you in the final as well,

0:31:36 > 0:31:39cos it's a right answer and would've scored 17 points.

0:31:39 > 0:31:43- The future King victorious at... - Richard III.- Not Richard III.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45- It's Henry VII.- Henry VII.- That would've scored 12 points.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48And do you know the nickname of the Yorkist supporter?

0:31:48 > 0:31:51- Kingmaker.- Yes, Richard Neville, the Kingmaker. Absolutely.

0:31:51 > 0:31:54That's the best there, five points, so well done if you said that.

0:31:54 > 0:31:58Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Here comes your third question.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01Whoever wins this question goes through to the final

0:32:01 > 0:32:02and plays for that jackpot.

0:32:02 > 0:32:07Very best of luck to both pairs. OK, your third question concerns:

0:32:07 > 0:32:09- Yes! - I don't know anything about that!

0:32:09 > 0:32:11LAUGHTER

0:32:11 > 0:32:12Richard?

0:32:12 > 0:32:16We'll give you the names of five NASA missions but missed out alternate letters.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18Fill them in and pick the most obscure.

0:32:18 > 0:32:20Very best of luck to everybody.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23Let's reveal our NASA missions with missing alternate letters

0:32:23 > 0:32:25and here they come. We have got:

0:32:34 > 0:32:36I'll read those all one last time.

0:32:45 > 0:32:47There we are, five NASA missions.

0:32:47 > 0:32:50You have to pick the one you think is the most obscure.

0:32:50 > 0:32:53Chris and Joe, you go first again this time.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55If you're happy with it, go with it.

0:32:55 > 0:32:58Yeah, not very good at this sort of thing.

0:32:58 > 0:32:59I should know...

0:32:59 > 0:33:01- The other one's really obvious. - Yeah.

0:33:01 > 0:33:04We know one of them but... I think we know two of them.

0:33:04 > 0:33:08I'm going to go for G-L-L-O, which is Galileo.

0:33:08 > 0:33:11OK, Galileo, said Chris and Joe.

0:33:11 > 0:33:13Matt and Tom, do your thinking out loud.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16- I think Viking must be the second one.- Yes.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19And Apollo, obviously.

0:33:19 > 0:33:20I don't think I know the others.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23Shall we go with Viking, then?

0:33:23 > 0:33:27- Yes, I think we'll have to go with Viking.- Viking.- Number two.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30OK, Viking, you are saying, so we have Galileo and Viking.

0:33:30 > 0:33:32Chris and Joe have gone for Galileo.

0:33:32 > 0:33:33Let's see if that's right,

0:33:33 > 0:33:36and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said Galileo.

0:33:39 > 0:33:40It's right.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48APPLAUSE

0:33:48 > 0:33:5028 for Galileo.

0:33:50 > 0:33:52Matt and Tom have gone for Viking.

0:33:52 > 0:33:53Let's see if that's right,

0:33:53 > 0:33:57and if it is, let's see how many people said Viking.

0:33:59 > 0:34:02It's right. This will decide who goes through to the final.

0:34:02 > 0:34:03If it goes down below 28...

0:34:03 > 0:34:05Ooh, 46.

0:34:05 > 0:34:06APPLAUSE

0:34:06 > 0:34:10Very well done, Chris and Joe.

0:34:11 > 0:34:15After three questions you are through to the final 2-1. Richard.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17The most obscure ones are the top and bottom.

0:34:17 > 0:34:21We'll fill in Apollo first. That would've scored 67.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24Now these other two, you might not know that they're NASA missions

0:34:24 > 0:34:28but they're quite common words so you might have worked them out at home.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30The top one,

0:34:30 > 0:34:32Stardust,

0:34:32 > 0:34:34which would've scored you six points.

0:34:34 > 0:34:38That went up to collect dust from the tail of a comet.

0:34:38 > 0:34:42And the bottom one is the first ever artificial satellite

0:34:42 > 0:34:44sent up by NASA in 1958.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46- Explorer.- Yeah. Absolutely right.

0:34:46 > 0:34:50And that would've scored 13, so Stardust, the best answer there.

0:34:50 > 0:34:52OK, thanks very much, Richard.

0:34:52 > 0:34:55So the losing pair at the end of the head-to-head is Matt and Tom.

0:34:55 > 0:34:59Well, you can't be upset with that. You performed incredibly well.

0:34:59 > 0:35:04We had three great answers but sadly, we have to say goodbye you.

0:35:04 > 0:35:10Chris and Joe just managed to steal it from under your noses.

0:35:10 > 0:35:14But they are worthy winners and we'll look forward to seeing you next time, Matt and Tom.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17Meanwhile, thanks very much for playing. Great contestants.

0:35:17 > 0:35:20APPLAUSE

0:35:20 > 0:35:23But for Chris and Joe, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:25 > 0:35:29Congratulations, Chris and Joe, you've fought off the competition

0:35:29 > 0:35:32and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:37 > 0:35:40You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot

0:35:40 > 0:35:43and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £2,500.

0:35:43 > 0:35:45CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:35:47 > 0:35:49You've covered yourselves in glory.

0:35:49 > 0:35:52In your first appearance, you got to the head-to-head,

0:35:52 > 0:35:54second appearance, here you are in the final.

0:35:54 > 0:35:58And you've added to the jackpot, Joe. A pointless answer from you

0:35:58 > 0:35:59in Round Two.

0:35:59 > 0:36:02A very, very impressive showing in the head-to-head.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04How do you feel about it?

0:36:04 > 0:36:09- I don't know...- Good.- Anything could come up so we don't know.

0:36:09 > 0:36:10OK, the rules are very simple.

0:36:10 > 0:36:12To win you just have to find a pointless answer.

0:36:12 > 0:36:15We've had two pointless answers on today's show,

0:36:15 > 0:36:16one of which came from you, Joe.

0:36:16 > 0:36:18You only have to find one more and you will leave

0:36:18 > 0:36:20with that jackpot of £2,500.

0:36:20 > 0:36:22First you have to choose a category

0:36:22 > 0:36:25and you can choose from these five options. They are:

0:36:31 > 0:36:33- Well... - I think that's settled.

0:36:33 > 0:36:37- We're not going for Katie Price. - But you...- End of.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39- But you know...- Don't "oh"!

0:36:39 > 0:36:40LAUGHTER

0:36:40 > 0:36:44I haven't... If Katie Price is genuinely your best I will...

0:36:44 > 0:36:47- Then no, no...- No! - I literally...- Playwrights, no.- No.

0:36:47 > 0:36:50Either Sporting Achievements or London, myself.

0:36:50 > 0:36:53Sporting Achie...? Really? Do you want to do it?

0:36:53 > 0:36:56If you're not happy with London we'll go Sporting Achievements

0:36:56 > 0:36:59cos they're the only two I'm happy with.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01- Rock, paper, scissors?- Yeah.

0:37:01 > 0:37:03LAUGHTER

0:37:03 > 0:37:04Sporting Achievements, please.

0:37:04 > 0:37:07LAUGHTER

0:37:07 > 0:37:11Very well done. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:37:11 > 0:37:14We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many

0:37:14 > 0:37:17Goal of the Season winners as they could.

0:37:17 > 0:37:19Goal of the Season winners. Richard?

0:37:19 > 0:37:22The name of any player who's won the Goal of the Season award

0:37:22 > 0:37:25from the first time it was given out on Match Of The Day

0:37:25 > 0:37:26in the 1970-71 season,

0:37:26 > 0:37:29so any player who has won the Goal of the Season.

0:37:29 > 0:37:30Very best of luck.

0:37:30 > 0:37:33You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:37:33 > 0:37:37All you need to win that £2,500 is for just one of those answers

0:37:37 > 0:37:39to be pointless. Are you ready?

0:37:39 > 0:37:42OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.

0:37:42 > 0:37:45There they are. Your time starts now.

0:37:45 > 0:37:48- Right, some footballers... - Ryan Giggs is a footballer.- He is.

0:37:48 > 0:37:52- Cristiano Ronaldo's definitely won it.- David Beckham's too obvious.

0:37:52 > 0:37:55- Yeah, too obvious. I think we should go a bit older.- Older...

0:37:55 > 0:37:58- So, like...- I don't know any old footballers.- Like someone...

0:37:58 > 0:38:02- I think Jaap Stam.- If you're happy with Jaap Stam.- Yeah.

0:38:02 > 0:38:05- Yeah?- That sounds like a place. - He's a definitely a player.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07If he's played football...

0:38:07 > 0:38:08So we've got...

0:38:10 > 0:38:13Shall we say Cristiano? Just... I'm pretty sure.

0:38:13 > 0:38:15Ryan Giggs must've, in all the years he's played...

0:38:15 > 0:38:17I'm pretty sure he... But he doesn't score many.

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Do I look like I watch football?

0:38:20 > 0:38:21LAUGHTER

0:38:23 > 0:38:27- Erm...- I can't think of any footballer. Who plays football?

0:38:27 > 0:38:30- I play football.- Freddie Ljungberg. - Freddie Ljungberg?- Yes.

0:38:30 > 0:38:33- Are you happy?- I'm as happy as I'll ever be.

0:38:33 > 0:38:34Yeah. I think we're...

0:38:34 > 0:38:36OK, you're going to stop the clock there.

0:38:36 > 0:38:40You have your three answers. You don't want to think any further?

0:38:40 > 0:38:42- Apparently so.- OK, there we are. Your time is now up.

0:38:42 > 0:38:45We wanted Goal of the Season winners. I need your three answers.

0:38:47 > 0:38:50- I'm pretty sure Cristiano Ronaldo won it.- Cristiano Ronaldo.

0:38:50 > 0:38:53- And then just two footballers. Jaap Stam.- Jaap Stam.

0:38:53 > 0:38:57He sounds like a footballer. And Freddie Ljungberg.

0:38:57 > 0:38:58And Freddie Ljungberg.

0:38:58 > 0:39:03Of those, who do you want put last? Who's your most confident answer?

0:39:03 > 0:39:05It really doesn't matter!

0:39:05 > 0:39:07- Shall we put Jaap Stam last? - He's the most confident shot

0:39:07 > 0:39:10at a pointless answer. OK, and your least confident?

0:39:10 > 0:39:14- Cristiano Ronaldo. - OK, we'll put him first.

0:39:14 > 0:39:18Let's put those on the board in that order. Here they are. We have got:

0:39:22 > 0:39:24So we're looking for Goal of the Season winners.

0:39:24 > 0:39:27Your first answer was Cristiano Ronaldo.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30This was probably your least likely shot at a pointless answer.

0:39:30 > 0:39:34You only have to find one pointless answer to win that jackpot

0:39:34 > 0:39:35of £2,500.

0:39:35 > 0:39:39So let's see. For £2,500, how many people said Cristiano Ronaldo?

0:39:39 > 0:39:40Is it right?

0:39:42 > 0:39:45No! Bad luck.

0:39:45 > 0:39:48An incorrect answer, as it turns out, so not pointless answer,

0:39:48 > 0:39:52which means you only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56Chris, let's just say Jaap Stam is a correct pointless answer.

0:39:56 > 0:39:58What would you do with your £2,500?

0:40:00 > 0:40:02She's going to kill me for saying this

0:40:02 > 0:40:05but, erm, I'd buy my girlfriend an engagement ring.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07AUDIENCE: Aah!

0:40:07 > 0:40:10We've been together seven years since we were 13.

0:40:10 > 0:40:13Aah!

0:40:13 > 0:40:14So... Come on, Jaap Spam!

0:40:14 > 0:40:16He can't even say his name!

0:40:16 > 0:40:19Jaap Spam?!

0:40:19 > 0:40:20LAUGHTER

0:40:20 > 0:40:23Well, best of luck. Wow, with that riding on it...

0:40:23 > 0:40:26- Joe, how about you? Beat that. - Oh, I don't...

0:40:26 > 0:40:29- Save up for the stag do, I suppose, then.- Yeah.

0:40:29 > 0:40:30LAUGHTER

0:40:30 > 0:40:32Sprung that on me!

0:40:32 > 0:40:34We're looking for Goal of the Season winners.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36Let's hope nobody said Freddie Ljungberg.

0:40:36 > 0:40:40This has to be right, obviously, then it has to be pointless

0:40:40 > 0:40:42for you to win that jackpot of £2,500.

0:40:42 > 0:40:45Let's see how many said Freddie Ljungberg, is it right?

0:40:47 > 0:40:49Ooh, no, bad luck!

0:40:49 > 0:40:51Another incorrect answer.

0:40:53 > 0:40:56OK, only one more chance to win today's jackpot.

0:40:56 > 0:40:59Jaap Stam... Did you just... Is that just cos it's a fun name?

0:40:59 > 0:41:03- It's a name of a footballer, I think.- It is. OK.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05We're looking for Goal of the Season winners.

0:41:05 > 0:41:07Your final answer was Jaap Stam,

0:41:07 > 0:41:09your most confident shot at a pointless answer.

0:41:09 > 0:41:11It must be right to win the jackpot,

0:41:11 > 0:41:14it must also be pointless for you to win that jackpot of £2,500.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17Let's find out. Jaap Stam - how many people said it?

0:41:19 > 0:41:21Ooh! Bad luck!

0:41:21 > 0:41:23Oh, bad luck.

0:41:23 > 0:41:26APPLAUSE DROWNS OUT SPEECH

0:41:26 > 0:41:29Unfortunately you didn't manage to find

0:41:29 > 0:41:31that all-important pointless answer.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33I'm some afraid you didn't win the jackpot

0:41:33 > 0:41:36but you do still get to take home our Pointless trophy,

0:41:36 > 0:41:38- so very, very well done.- Thank you.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40APPLAUSE

0:41:42 > 0:41:46Jaap Stam, certainly a footballer, not a prolific goalscorer, though.

0:41:46 > 0:41:49He was a centre-back for Man United.

0:41:49 > 0:41:53You also mentioned Ryan Giggs. That would've scored you 7 points.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers, though.

0:41:56 > 0:41:58Archie Gemmill won it in 1978,

0:41:58 > 0:42:02Dietmar Hamann, the Liverpool player, won it in 2004,

0:42:02 > 0:42:05Gerry Francis won it for a goal for QPR against Liverpool.

0:42:05 > 0:42:08That would've been pointless. and won you the money.

0:42:08 > 0:42:11Graeme Sharpe, the Everton player, won it for a goal against Liverpool.

0:42:11 > 0:42:14John Aldridge won it twice in '88 and '89, both FOR Liverpool.

0:42:14 > 0:42:17Full marks for obscurity if you said Mickey Walsh.

0:42:17 > 0:42:18He won it in 1975 for Blackpool.

0:42:18 > 0:42:20That's a terrific answer.

0:42:20 > 0:42:23Peter Osgood scored for Chelsea, won Goal of the Season.

0:42:23 > 0:42:26Rod Wallace was a pointless answer, as was his brother Danny Wallace,

0:42:26 > 0:42:27Well done if you said him.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30And Tony Morley, the Villa player, also won it.

0:42:30 > 0:42:34Also, Cyrille Regis, Keith Houchen, Mickey Thomas or Shaun Bartlett.

0:42:34 > 0:42:37Very well done if you said any of those at home.

0:42:37 > 0:42:39Thanks very much. Unfortunately we have to say goodbye

0:42:39 > 0:42:43but it's been brilliant having you here. Thanks so much for playing. Great contestants.

0:42:43 > 0:42:46APPLAUSE

0:42:46 > 0:42:48Well, Chris and Joe didn't win our jackpot today,

0:42:48 > 0:42:51so it rolls over to the next show when we'll be playing

0:42:51 > 0:42:54for £3,500.

0:42:54 > 0:42:55CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:42:55 > 0:42:59Join us to see if someone can win. Meanwhile, it's bye from Richard...

0:42:59 > 0:43:01- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
