0:00:21 > 0:00:25Thank you very much. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless, the quiz show
0:00:25 > 0:00:29that puts obscure knowledge to the test. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:29 > 0:00:33APPLAUSE
0:00:33 > 0:00:38First up, we welcome Abi and Andy. Now, Abi, how do you two know each other?
0:00:38 > 0:00:40- Father and daughter. - Father and daughter,
0:00:40 > 0:00:42traditionally a very, very strong suit on Pointless.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45They always do well, fathers and daughters. Andy, where are you from?
0:00:45 > 0:00:47- Stoke-on-Trent.- Stoke-on-Trent.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50And what do you like to get up to in your spare time, Abi?
0:00:50 > 0:00:53- I'm in a street dance group. - Are you?- We're not very good.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Have you yet been on Britain's Got Talent?
0:00:55 > 0:00:59I think Stoke's Got Talent's probably more our scale.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01OK, OK. Very good.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Andy, what do you like to get up to?
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Not a lot, really. Watching Pointless mostly.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10- That's good.- Rush home from work so that I can watch it
0:01:10 > 0:01:13but, other than that, it's a lot of watching sport and stuff like that.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17OK. Well, best of luck. Abi and Andy, great to have you on the show.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21And next we welcome Becky and Shaun. Now, how do you two know each other, Shaun?
0:01:21 > 0:01:24- We're engaged to be married. - Engaged to be married.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26How long have you been engaged, Becky?
0:01:26 > 0:01:28We've actually been engaged about six months
0:01:28 > 0:01:30but we've been together for eight years.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34- Shaun!- I've been waiting a long time.- Eight years.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38Blimey. Shaun, what do you hope is going to come up today?
0:01:38 > 0:01:42I'm hoping maybe sport, I'm a big Norwich City fan.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Maybe some really detailed questions on Alan Partridge
0:01:45 > 0:01:48or life and works of Steve Coogan.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50OK, Becky, anything you want to add to that?
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Any sort of TV. I watch a lot of television,
0:01:53 > 0:01:57or I know a lot about celebrities.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59Who's putting on weight, who's losing weight.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01That sort of important stuff.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Now, there's a round. There's a round.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06People who are losing weight. Very good indeed.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10Shaun and Becky, warm welcome to Pointless. Great to have you here.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12And next we welcome Tony Snr and Tony Jnr.
0:02:12 > 0:02:16- How do you two know each other, Tony Snr?- Father and son.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18What are your hobbies, Tony Jnr?
0:02:18 > 0:02:21- I've been doing close-up magic for about 14 years.- Wow.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25So I've done quite a few weddings.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Dad showed me a couple of card tricks when I was younger.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31And it's very much now the sort of apprentice becoming the master.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Very exciting indeed.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35So, Tony Jnr, what do you hope is going to come up today?
0:02:35 > 0:02:38TV and film, I love TV and film.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42If you go into my spare room, I've got... last count of about 900 DVDs.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Do you watch them or do you just keep them and cherish them?
0:02:45 > 0:02:48No, no, no I watch them all, all in alphabetical order.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Um...
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Tony Snr, what do you hope is going to come up today?
0:02:53 > 0:02:55- Sport. Much as everybody else. - Sport.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Music. '80s, '70s, '80s.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01OK, that kind of music. Lovely to have you on the show, Tonys.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Very, very best of luck to you.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06And, finally, we welcome back Max and Martyn,
0:03:06 > 0:03:10our only returning pair today. You were on the show last time. Everyone gets two chances
0:03:10 > 0:03:13to reach the Pointless final, this is your second and final chance.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Max, remind us how you two know each other.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Through Martyn's fiancee, who's my cousin.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22- So you're about to become cousins-in-law?- Yes.
0:03:22 > 0:03:23Oh...yes.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Now, Martyn, what happened last time?
0:03:25 > 0:03:29I think we had a bad case of the Lloyd Webbers last time. We got to the head-to-head.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31You got to the head-to-head. You did really well.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34- Yeah, up until...- Fashion designers came up and you beat the ladies.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- Surprisingly well on fashion designers.- Really surprisingly well.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41It was a complete guess.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Yeah, yeah. A complete guess.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46What do you hope is going to come up today, Max?
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Anything that we'd know.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Film, science fiction, anything like that.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55You know, I'm a bit of a sci-fi fan.
0:03:55 > 0:03:56- Wrestling, obviously.- Obviously.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Max is a professional wrestler.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02Mad Max Fury, that's him. I know, I know, it's him.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06Crazy. Sorry, mad, mad. Martyn?
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Geography, maybe.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12OK. We didn't have any of that last time, so maybe that will be coming back.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Well, Max and Martyn, great to have you back on the show.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Very, very best of luck to you as well.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19We'll find out more about all of you throughout the show.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21There's only one person left for me to introduce.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24A man who examines cultures of trivia on the Petri dish of obscurity.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28- It's my Pointless friend. It's Richard.- Hiya.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Hello.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35- Hello there.- Hello there.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Quite often on this show, we have all sorts of different types of questions
0:04:38 > 0:04:42and there's a big behind-the-scenes team who help with all the questions.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Some of them are simple and some of them are not. Question one on today's show,
0:04:45 > 0:04:48I think, probably took the most man and woman hours to write,
0:04:48 > 0:04:51to verify, to work out, of any question we have ever had.
0:04:51 > 0:04:56It's really quite a spectacular feat of question writing from the team.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59I've never heard the word "woman hours" before.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03- Can I just take my hat off to you? - Woman hours?- Yeah.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Well, that's what I do between six and eight every evening.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Those are my woman hours.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11- When everyone's out.- And the rest.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Thank you very much, Richard. Well, all our questions on Pointless
0:05:14 > 0:05:16have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20In order to get through to the Final Round and be in with a chance of winning our jackpot,
0:05:20 > 0:05:23our contestants must find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26So the fewer of the 100 people who knew the answer, the fewer points you'll score.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30Now, what everyone's trying to do is to find a pointless answer.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32That's an answer that none of our 100 people knew
0:05:32 > 0:05:35and, each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Nobody won the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40So today's jackpot starts off at...
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56In this First Round, each of you must give me one answer and you cannot confer with your partner.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59The pair with the highest score at the end of the round
0:05:59 > 0:06:01will be eliminated, so make sure that's not you.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04Our category for Round One is...
0:06:07 > 0:06:11Money. Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:06:24 > 0:06:27...as they could. World currencies. Richard.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Yes. We're looking for the unit of official national currency
0:06:30 > 0:06:32of any country in the world, please.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35So, any unit of official national currency.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37We're not looking for the country and the currency,
0:06:37 > 0:06:41so where more than one country shares the same named currency, we'll only accept it once,
0:06:41 > 0:06:45or if the currency is essentially the same one as from another country.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49And, for each of those countries, we're looking for the main unit of currency, not any sub-units,
0:06:49 > 0:06:51just the main unit of currency for any of those countries.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55And, as always by country, we mean a sovereign state that is a member of the UN.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59- Very best of luck.- Thanks very much, Richard. Now then, Abi and Andy,
0:06:59 > 0:07:02you all drew lots before the show and, today, you are going first.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05Well, other than using money,
0:07:05 > 0:07:10it's not probably my strong point and I apologise already
0:07:10 > 0:07:14cos it's probably high-scoring but I'm going to go for the yen.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16The yen, says Abi, the yen.
0:07:16 > 0:07:20Let's see if it's right and, if it is, let's see how many people said the yen.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Absolutely right.
0:07:28 > 0:07:33Not much wrong with that, Abi. 25 for yen.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Yes, a safe answer from podium one there.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40A yen is worth roughly 0.8p. And there's 100 sen in a yen.
0:07:40 > 0:07:41Wow.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44So one sen is not worth a lot.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Oh, I must pay you that five cen I owe you.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Yes.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51Now then, Becky.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53This isn't a great subject for me.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57I haven't travelled very far, so I don't know many currencies
0:07:57 > 0:08:01but Shaun's sister has just emigrated to Australia,
0:08:01 > 0:08:04so I think I'll go for the Australian dollar.
0:08:04 > 0:08:05The Australian dollar, says Becky.
0:08:05 > 0:08:10Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said the Australian dollar.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14It's right.
0:08:17 > 0:08:1954, Becky.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Yes, so the unit there is dollar. So that's dollar for all the countries it's used in.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27It's used in all sorts of places. Antigua and Barbuda, New Zealand,
0:08:27 > 0:08:30Saint Vincent, Taiwan, Trinidad and Tobago, United States.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32All sorts of places use the dollar.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35Very good, right. The Tonys. Tony Jnr.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Well, I had my stag do
0:08:39 > 0:08:43about four years ago in Poland,
0:08:43 > 0:08:48and I seem to recall paying for some very cheap beer in zlotys.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52Zlotys. Let's see if zloty is right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said zloty.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57It's absolutely right.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Very, very well done indeed. That scores you 2.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12If the beer was that cheap, I congratulate you
0:09:12 > 0:09:14on remembering anything, frankly. Richard.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Well played, Tony Jnr. 100 groszy in a zloty.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Zloty is Polish for gold coin.
0:09:19 > 0:09:24Now then, Max. So, remember, we're looking for any main unit of currency.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28Well, I've travelled near and far, and I'm going to go for Thai baht.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33The baht. The Baht. OK. Let's see if that's right and, if it is,
0:09:33 > 0:09:35let's see how many of our 100 people said baht.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40It's right.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50Very well done, Max. 9.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55Yeah, absolutely. From Thailand, which is where I spend a lot of my woman hours.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Yeah. OK, we're halfway through the round.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Let's take a look at those scores.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05The Tonys looking very strong indeed,
0:10:05 > 0:10:08after Tony Jnr's brilliant answer of the zloty on 2.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Then we're up to nine, where we find Max and Martyn.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Up to 25, where we find Abi and Andy.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16And then up to 54, where we find Becky and Shaun.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18So, yes, you are quite significantly ahead there, Shaun.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21You'll have to find a good, low-scoring answer in the next pass.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24We'll hope that's enough to keep you in the game.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players please take their places at the podium.
0:10:30 > 0:10:31There we are, Martyn.
0:10:31 > 0:10:35Remember we are looking for any main unit of national currency.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38You're on 9, the high scorers Shaun and Becky on 54.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41If you can score 44 or less, you are through to the next round.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45I've done a fair bit of travelling and one place I went to was China,
0:10:45 > 0:10:48- where they use the yuan. - The yuan, says Martyn.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Here's your red line. You get below that red line with yuan
0:10:51 > 0:10:55and you are through to the next round. How many people said yuan?
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Very well done. You're through.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08The lowest score so far. Very, very well done, Martyn.
0:11:08 > 0:11:13That takes your total up to a very impressive, low 10.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- Richard.- Good answer, Martyn. Very low score for yuan.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19Only one person in 100 knew it which, given we'll all be using it
0:11:19 > 0:11:21in 25 years' time is quite bad, isn't it?
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Amazing.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Now then, Tony Snr.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29The high scorers are still Shaun and Becky on 54, you're on 2.
0:11:29 > 0:11:34A score of 51 or less sees you through to the next round.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37OK. Well, I don't think I've done enough stag dos as I should have.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Perhaps I'd have known a few more answers.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42But...I think...
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- South African rand. - The rand, says Tony Snr.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48The rand. Here's your red line.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51If the rand gets you below that, you're through to the next round.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53How many people said the rand?
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Yep, you've done it.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Very well done indeed. Takes your total up to 11.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08Very good.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Well done. Through to the next rand.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12LAUGHTER
0:12:12 > 0:12:13Only used in South Africa, the rand.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Shaun, you're the high scorers on 54.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18We need a very low-scoring answer from you.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22- We need a minus answer, a negative answer.- Yes.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25- I'm going to go for the Russian rouble.- The rouble, says Shaun.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28There's no red line for you because you're the high scorers.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32Let's see if the rouble's right and, if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35It's right.
0:12:42 > 0:12:456 for the rouble, takes your total up to 60.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50- The rouble, Richard.- Let's see if that's enough to keep you in the round.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54Used in Russia, of course. Used in Belarus under a slightly different name. Worth about 2p.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58- And there's 100 kopecks in a rouble.- Good. Andy.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01Well, I'm really glad I'm on the end of the row
0:13:01 > 0:13:06because Tony pinched my first answer and Max pinched my second one,
0:13:06 > 0:13:08so I've had time to think of a third, fourth and fifth.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Very good. Well, let me tell you, the high scorers are Shaun and Becky on 60 now,
0:13:11 > 0:13:14so if you can score 34 or less,
0:13:14 > 0:13:17- you will go through to the next round.- Right.- What have you got?
0:13:17 > 0:13:22I'm setting myself up for a fall here, cos I'm going to say, well, I used to collect coins.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Yeah, OK. So, here's the fall.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27I think, I'm not sure exactly which Scandinavian country,
0:13:27 > 0:13:31but there's definitely a currency called an ore.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- O-R-E.- An ore.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37I think it might be Swedish or Danish, don't know.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39OK, the ore.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44Here is your red line. If you can get below that red line with ore,
0:13:44 > 0:13:46you are through to the next round.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49Let's see, is ore right? How many people said it if it is?
0:13:52 > 0:13:56- Oh, bad luck, Andy. - Sorry.- It's all right.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Ore is an incorrect answer, which means you scored the maximum of 100 points.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02I'm sorry, that takes your total up to 125.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05- But it was a valiant attempt. - No, it was silly.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Yeah. Sorry, Andy. Almost any other answer would have won it for you.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Too smart there, it's a sub-division of the krone, so...
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Yeah, that's why I know it,
0:14:12 > 0:14:15- cos I've seen little coins with ore written on it.- Yeah, absolutely.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16And big coins with krone written on it.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19That is very tough luck. There's a lot of pointless answers here.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21I'll take you through a few of them.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23For everybody, let's get it out of the way now,
0:14:23 > 0:14:26everyone's shouting "dong" at the screen, that would have scored 1 point.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30So not a pointless answer but let's take a point at some of the pointless answers.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34- The Afghani. Do you know where they use that?- Erm...
0:14:34 > 0:14:37It's Afghanistan, that. That would have been 1 point.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40- Bolivar, do you know where they use that?- Venezuela.- It is Venezuela.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43You're supposed to say Bolivia. Yeah, that's Venezuela.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46The Boliviano, that is Bolivia, a pointless answer.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50They use the colon or co-lon...
0:14:50 > 0:14:54- They use that in Costa Rica and El Salvador.- Do you get a semi co-lon?
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Semi co-lon's worth about 50p, yeah.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59The escudo. They used to use that in Portugal.
0:14:59 > 0:15:00They use that in the Cape Verde Island.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03The kwanza, they use in Angola.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07Albania use the lek, Bulgaria use the lev
0:15:07 > 0:15:12and the quetzal is the currency of, of course, Guatemala.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Lots of pointless answers on the list.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Very well done if you got any of those ones.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Thanks, Richard. At the end of our First Round,
0:15:18 > 0:15:21the pair who'll be leaving us, with their high score of 125,
0:15:21 > 0:15:23I'm afraid is Andy and Abi.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26I thought that was going to be a brilliant answer.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30- I was too clever by half. Sorry, Abi.- It's all right.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33- You were actually too clever by 100th.- Yes. Exactly.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37So, listen, we will see you again next time, Andy and Abi,
0:15:37 > 0:15:39where I know we will see a lot more of you.
0:15:39 > 0:15:43Plenty more you have to offer Pointless. But, meanwhile, thanks for playing.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Great contestants. Andy and Abi.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50But, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Now, there's only going to be room for two pairs in the head-to-head round,
0:15:58 > 0:16:02so one of the pairs in front of me now will be leaving us at the end of this round.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04OK. Our category for Round Two is...
0:16:05 > 0:16:10People. Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:16:10 > 0:16:13And, whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18OK. So our question concerns...
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Essex boys and girls. Richard.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27Yeah. On each pass, I'm going to give you clues to six famous people who were born in Essex.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30All you have to do is solve the clues and give me the names, please.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32An obscure answer will score fewer points.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34An incorrect answer, though, will be 100 points.
0:16:34 > 0:16:3712 people born in Essex to guess at home. Good luck.
0:16:37 > 0:16:43OK. Thanks very much. So here are six clues to people born in Essex.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44And we have got...
0:17:02 > 0:17:05I'll read those six clues again. And here we go.
0:17:23 > 0:17:28There we are. Six clues to six Essex boys or girls.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30- Becky.- Oh, dear.
0:17:31 > 0:17:37I feel like I should know who presents The X-Factor but I really can't think.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41I'm going to have to go for presenter of Deal Or No Deal.
0:17:41 > 0:17:45- Noel Edmonds.- Noel Edmonds, says Becky. Noel Edmonds. Let's see if that's right.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48Let's see how many people said Noel Edmonds.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Absolutely right.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03- 52 for Noel...- Yes, Noel Edmonds. Born in Ilford.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05- I was born in Essex, of course. - So you were.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07- I'm not on the board, though. - I was slightly hoping you might be.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09- Do you think? - Might be a bit... Slightly...
0:18:09 > 0:18:12No, cos we're looking for famous people born in Essex, unfortunately.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15I'll just say big up to the Billericay massive.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19- As you were.- Tony Jnr.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Tough round. I should know the guy who plays Ash in Alien
0:18:23 > 0:18:26and there's only one male presenter that I can think of
0:18:26 > 0:18:29but it doesn't sound like an Essex name.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32I'm going to have to plump for he became presenter
0:18:32 > 0:18:34of The X-Factor in 2007, with O'Leary?
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Dermot O'Leary, says Tony Jnr. Let's see if that's right.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39If it is, let's see how many of our 100 said Dermot O'Leary.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Absolutely right.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Well done, Tony.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57- Dermot O'Leary. Born in Colchester. A lovely man.- Very nice man.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00His name doesn't sound like he's from Essex, does it? Dermot O'Leary.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02It's not actually the name he was born with. That's why.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06His actual name is Sean Dermot Fintan O'Leary, so...
0:19:08 > 0:19:10- Wouldn't have helped, would it?- No.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13No indeed. Max, you're the last person to have this board,
0:19:13 > 0:19:15so you can talk us through it, if you like.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18I'd love to. I really would. But, unfortunately,
0:19:18 > 0:19:20I don't know any of them, so I'm going to go with hurdler
0:19:20 > 0:19:24and I don't even know if it's a hurdler, so it's a shot in the dark.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27- Sebastian Coe. - Sebastian Coe, says Max.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Sebastian Coe. Let's see if that's right.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33And, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said Sebastian Coe.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40Oh. Bad luck, Max. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer
0:19:40 > 0:19:43which, I'm afraid, scores you the maximum of 100 points.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45Yeah. Sebastian Coe, he's no more a hurdler
0:19:45 > 0:19:47than he is a wrestler, Max, I'm afraid.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53- He was born in Chiswick, as well, Sebastian Coe, in London.- Was he?
0:19:53 > 0:19:57But the hurdler who won Olympic gold is Sally Gunnell.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00She was born in Chigwell. Appointed Home Secretary in 1997
0:20:00 > 0:20:02and born in Buckhurst Hill, it was Jack Straw.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07Would have scored three points. Played the title character, Miss Jean Brodie.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11A daughter of Ilford this time. Maggie Smith. Dame Maggie Smith.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Would have scored 14. And the actor who plays the android Ash in Alien
0:20:14 > 0:20:16is a pointless answer. It's Ian Holm.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18Ian Holm. Very well done if you said that at home.
0:20:18 > 0:20:22Thanks very much. We're halfway through the round. Let's look at those scores.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26The Tonys looking great on 16. Lovely low score there.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Then up to 52, where we find Becky and Shaun.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32Then up to 100, where we find Max and Martyn.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36Yes, well, Martyn, that means you're going to have to find a really good low score on the next pass.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39We hope that's enough to keep you in the game. Best of luck with that.
0:20:39 > 0:20:43We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players please take their places at the podium.
0:20:45 > 0:20:50OK. We're going to put six more clues to Essex boys and girls on the board
0:20:50 > 0:20:51and here we have got...
0:21:06 > 0:21:07I'll read those all one last time.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24So we are looking for the names of these famous people born in Essex.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27Martyn, you're going to try and find the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Now, Martyn, you're the high scorers on 100, there.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Yeah. Do know a few.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36It's just figuring out which one's going to be the lowest.
0:21:36 > 0:21:41I think the most obscure one is going to be Derek to Peter Cook's Clive
0:21:41 > 0:21:46- And I think that's Dudley Moore. - Dudley Moore, says Martyn.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Derek to Peter Cook's Clive. Let's see if Dudley Moore's right.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51There's no red line for you because you're the high scorers.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Let's see how many people said Dudley Moore.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57Absolutely right.
0:22:04 > 0:22:0728 takes your total up to 128.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- Richard.- Not a bad answer. Born in Dagenham, Dudley Moore.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14- Derek and Clive, of course, were their notoriously filthy alter egos, weren't they?- Really filthy.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Now then, Tony Snr, you're through to the next round.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Even if you score 100, you won't overtake Martyn and Max's high score.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Well, that was the only one I knew at the bottom.
0:22:23 > 0:22:27There's two I've got an idea on, so I will go for
0:22:27 > 0:22:31author of Riders and Rivals, Jilly Cooper?
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Jilly Cooper, says Tony Snr. Let's see if that's right.
0:22:34 > 0:22:39Let's see how many people said Jilly Cooper. No red line for you because you're already through.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Absolutely right.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Very well done. Takes your total to 30.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57Well played, Tony Snr. She's from a famous Yorkshire family but she was born in Hornchurch.
0:22:57 > 0:23:02Now then, Shaun. The high scorers, on 28, are Martyn and Max.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05You're on 52. A score of 75 or less sees you through.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08You can talk us through the board.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10I should know the first one.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12I can picture her but I can't remember her name.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14She used to do breakfast shows, I think.
0:23:14 > 0:23:18I can't remember the name of who married Katy Perry but he's got a Russell in his name.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Fourth one down, I'm not sure, which leads me probably to the most obscure one anyway.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25I think the person who appeared in 24 Carry On films was Hattie Jacques.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30Hattie Jacques, you're going to go for. Hattie Jacques, says Shaun.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Here is your red line.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36If you get below that line, you are through to the next round.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Is Hattie Jacques right and, if it is, how many people said it?
0:23:43 > 0:23:47Oh, bad luck, Shaun. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,
0:23:47 > 0:23:49which means you score the maximum of 100,
0:23:49 > 0:23:52to take your total up to an unbeatable 152.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56Phoowee. Martyn and Max, you're back in the game. Richard.
0:23:56 > 0:24:00Hattie Jacques, only in 14 Carry On films and born in Kent, as well.
0:24:00 > 0:24:05The woman who holds the record for the most uninterrupted Carry On films, 20 in a row, 24 in all,
0:24:05 > 0:24:10was Joan Sims. Joan Sims. 2 points. She was born in Laindon.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12The Big Breakfast presenter. She does present breakfast shows.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16You're right. It's Denise Van Outen. Would have scored 25.
0:24:16 > 0:24:21Married Katy Perry in 2010, Russell Brand. 36.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23And wrote the controversial play Blasted is a pointless answer.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27Do you know that one? The late Sarah Kane. That was a pointless answer,
0:24:27 > 0:24:29- so well done if you said that at home.- Thank you very much, Richard.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32So, at the end of Round Two, the pair with the highest score,
0:24:32 > 0:24:35who'll be leaving us, I'm afraid it's Shaun and Becky.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Well, you had a good stab at that. That was tough, though. Joan Sims.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43Yeah. Russell Brand, I should have got. Got his book at home. Can picture him.
0:24:43 > 0:24:47Well, you got the Russell bit. It would have come, I think, if you'd thought about it.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51But there we are. Oh, well, we'll see you next time, Shaun and Becky. We'll look forward to that.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Meantime, thank you very much for playing. Great contestants. Thank you.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56APPLAUSE
0:24:57 > 0:25:02For the remaining players, things are about to get even more exciting as we enter the head-to-head.
0:25:07 > 0:25:12Congratulations, Tony Snr, Tony Jnr, Max and Martyn. You are now only one round away
0:25:12 > 0:25:15from the final and our jackpot, which currently stands at...
0:25:20 > 0:25:22OK. You're now going to go head-to-head.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28But, of course, from hereon in, you are allowed to confer.
0:25:28 > 0:25:33So, Max and Martyn, where we were last time. How are you feeling this time?
0:25:33 > 0:25:38- They don't look like Andrew Lloyd Webber fans, so I think...- We're all right there.
0:25:38 > 0:25:39Very, very best of luck to both pairs.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42Anything can happen. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51OK. Here comes your first question and it concerns...
0:25:54 > 0:25:58- Dances. Richard.- Yeah. We gave you fashion designers last time, Max and Martyn.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Today we're going to show you five pictures of well-known dances.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04Can you pick the most obscure out of these? Good luck.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08OK. Let's reveal our five dances and here they are...
0:26:22 > 0:26:25So there we are. Five famous dances.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29The Tonys, you've played best throughout the show so far, so you go first.
0:26:29 > 0:26:30WHISPERING
0:26:36 > 0:26:41OK. We'll...we'll go for A and The Twist.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44A, The Twist. A, The Twist.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47Max and Martyn, talk us through the board.
0:26:47 > 0:26:52Well, I think A, possibly they've got that right.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56B looks like a Tango, maybe?
0:26:56 > 0:27:00C's the limbo. E is the can-can
0:27:00 > 0:27:04and I think we're going to go with D, which looks like the Charleston.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06The Charleston, you are saying, for D.
0:27:06 > 0:27:11The Charleston. So we have A, the twist and D, the Charleston.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14So the Tony's have said A, twist. Let's see if that's right.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17And, if it is, let's see how many people A was the twist.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22Absolutely right.
0:27:23 > 0:27:2551 for the twist.
0:27:29 > 0:27:33Max and Martyn are saying that D is the Charleston.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36Let's see if that's right. How many people said Charleston?
0:27:42 > 0:27:43Oh, very well done.
0:27:45 > 0:27:4712 said Charleston.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Once again, Max and Martyn knowing rather more than they're letting on.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57After one question, they're up 1-0. Richard.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01Yes, very well played. It's the best answer on the board, actually, the Charleston,
0:28:01 > 0:28:04and you took us through the whole board. Let's see what the others would have scored, though.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07The tango would have beaten the twist, funnily enough. Would have scored 49 points.
0:28:07 > 0:28:11- They're dancing very late, Richard. - Very late?
0:28:11 > 0:28:14Well, yeah, it's nearly quarter past midnight. I mean, that's...
0:28:16 > 0:28:21- No, that's a lunchtime tango class. - Oh, OK. Fair enough.
0:28:21 > 0:28:25- They're dancing very early, Richard. - But also don't forget that's in Argentina,
0:28:25 > 0:28:27so you've got to take the time difference into account.
0:28:29 > 0:28:32They've got an English clock in Argentina. There's the problem.
0:28:32 > 0:28:37C is limbo. That would have scored 64 points.
0:28:37 > 0:28:38And the biggest scorer of all is the can-can,
0:28:38 > 0:28:42which is E and that would have scored 88 points.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45OK. Thanks very much indeed. Here comes your second question.
0:28:45 > 0:28:48The Tonys, you have to win this question to stay in the game.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50Best of luck. Our second question concerns...
0:28:55 > 0:29:00- Richard.- We're going to show you the names of five types of cat but we've removed all of the letters,
0:29:00 > 0:29:03apart from the first and the last. Can you name the cats, please?
0:29:03 > 0:29:07OK. Let's reveal our five types of cat with missing letters and here they are...
0:29:20 > 0:29:23All those dashes, obviously, stand for missing letters.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26I'm going to read them again without the blanks.
0:29:31 > 0:29:35There we go. Five different cats. Max and Martyn, you go first.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37WHISPERING
0:29:37 > 0:29:40I think we're struggling a bit on this,
0:29:40 > 0:29:42so we're going to play safe and say cheetah.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44Cheetah, you are saying.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47Cheetah, in the middle there. The Tonys, it's your turn.
0:29:47 > 0:29:50You can talk us through the board. You're the last people to have it.
0:29:50 > 0:29:54So we've got puma as the top one. Bobcat for the second one.
0:29:54 > 0:29:57Tiger is number five. Haven't got a clue for number four.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00I think, out of all of that, we'll go for bobcat.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04OK. Bobcat say the Tonys. So we have cheetah and bobcat.
0:30:04 > 0:30:08Max and Martyn. Cheetah, they said. Is it right? How many people said it? Cheetah.
0:30:09 > 0:30:11Absolutely right.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15Ooh, that's high. 78.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21The Tonys have gone with bobcat. Let's see if that's right.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26It is right. Will it beat 78? Yes, it will.
0:30:30 > 0:30:334 for bobcat. Very well done indeed.
0:30:35 > 0:30:38Well done. That's what you needed to do. You're back in the game.
0:30:38 > 0:30:41- After two questions, it's 1-1. Richard.- Terrific answer.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Great head-to-head, both teams.
0:30:43 > 0:30:47The bobcat is a very solitary, nocturnal cat
0:30:47 > 0:30:49that's native to North America.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52One answer would have beaten bobcat. You can work out which one it is.
0:30:52 > 0:30:56It's not puma, at the top, cos that would have scored 47.
0:30:56 > 0:31:00It's not tiger, at the bottom, which would have scored 87.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03It's this one. It's the jaguarundi.
0:31:03 > 0:31:07The jaguarondi, which would have scored 1 point, so one of our 100 people knew it.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09And that's native to Central and South America.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12Brilliant. Thank you very much. Here comes your third question.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15Whoever wins this goes through to the final and plays for that jackpot.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18Best of luck, both teams. Our third question concerns...
0:31:23 > 0:31:26- Richard.- Yeah. We're just going to show you five clues
0:31:26 > 0:31:29to facts about men's golf majors.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33Can you give us the best answer, please? Very, very best of luck to both teams.
0:31:33 > 0:31:37OK. Thanks, Richard. Let's reveal our five clues to facts about men's golf majors.
0:31:37 > 0:31:39And here we are. We have got...
0:31:54 > 0:31:56I'll read those one last time.
0:32:11 > 0:32:15There we are. Five clues to facts about men's golf majors.
0:32:15 > 0:32:18Now then, the Tonys. You are to go first.
0:32:18 > 0:32:20WHISPERING
0:32:22 > 0:32:26We're going to play it safe, just in case we get a wrong answer and get 100,
0:32:26 > 0:32:29so the colour of the jacket worn by the Masters winner is green. Green jacket.
0:32:29 > 0:32:32OK. The green jacket. The green jacket.
0:32:32 > 0:32:35- Now then, Max and Martyn, you can talk us through the board, if you can.- If we can.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40I think the golfer who participated
0:32:40 > 0:32:44in 44 consecutive US Opens was...
0:32:44 > 0:32:46I think that's probably what we'll go for...Jack Nicklaus?
0:32:46 > 0:32:48OK. You're going to say Jack Nicklaus.
0:32:48 > 0:32:53So, the colour of the jacket is green and Jack Nicklaus is the golfer
0:32:53 > 0:32:55who participated in 44 consecutive US Opens.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58The Tonys have said the colour of the jacket is green.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02Let's see if that's right. And, if it is, let's see how many people said that.
0:33:04 > 0:33:05It's right.
0:33:13 > 0:33:1849. Max and Martyn have named Jack Nicklaus as the golfer
0:33:18 > 0:33:20who participated in 44 consecutive Opens.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24Let's see if that's right. And, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said it.
0:33:26 > 0:33:30It's right. 49's what you have to beat. If you do, you go through to the final.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32You've done it! Very well done.
0:33:33 > 0:33:3511 for Jack Nicklaus.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40Very, very well done indeed, Max and Martyn.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44After three questions, you are through to the final, 2-1. Richard.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47Yeah. There's only one answer that would have beaten that on the board.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49Let's go through all of them.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51The youngest player to win all four majors in a career.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53For the second board in a row, Tiger is an answer.
0:33:53 > 0:33:56There he is, Tiger Woods, would have scored you 39.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59The city which hosts the US Masters. Augusta,
0:33:59 > 0:34:01would have scored 13 points, so wouldn't have saved you.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04And the only Canadian to win a major. It's a pointless answer.
0:34:04 > 0:34:07Very well done at home. Winner of the 2003 Masters,
0:34:07 > 0:34:10Mike Weir. So it's a terrific answer.
0:34:10 > 0:34:15Thanks, Richard. So the losing pair, at the end of the head-to-head, I'm afraid it's the Tonys.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17But what an amazing contest that was. I mean, really.
0:34:17 > 0:34:21You came right back with bobcat. Fantastic answer to the second question.
0:34:21 > 0:34:24Great answers to all questions, in fact.
0:34:24 > 0:34:28I thought you were going to get that. I thought golf was very much your subject.
0:34:28 > 0:34:33Yeah. I wasn't too sure about Augusta, that's the only thing. Had to play safe.
0:34:33 > 0:34:37- I thought it was Jack Nicklaus. But there's a couple that it could have been, so...- Yeah.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40The good news is we get to see you next time, so we'll look forward to that.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43- Tonys, thanks so much for playing. Brilliant contestants.- Thank you.
0:34:43 > 0:34:44CHEERING, APPLAUSE
0:34:46 > 0:34:49But, for Max and Martyn, it's now time for our Pointless Final.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51APPLAUSE
0:34:54 > 0:34:56Congratulations, Max and Martyn,
0:34:56 > 0:35:00you have fought off the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot
0:35:07 > 0:35:11and, at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at...
0:35:15 > 0:35:19Well, head-to-head last time and through to the final this time.
0:35:19 > 0:35:22- I know. Very luckily through, I think.- Yeah.- On the last one.
0:35:22 > 0:35:25You did great. That was really exciting, that head-to-head.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28All been pretty good, apart from your hurdling! Max.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31A fellow sportsman, Seb Coe?
0:35:31 > 0:35:33The only hurdler I could think of was Colin Jackson,
0:35:33 > 0:35:39I know he's Welsh, so...I just went for somebody completely random.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42If I was going to go out, I was going to go out in a blaze of glory.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45Well, you've stayed in on a blaze of glory, so there we are. Fantastic.
0:35:45 > 0:35:48To win the money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:35:48 > 0:35:50We haven't had any on the show today.
0:35:50 > 0:35:55You only have to find one now and you'll go home with that £6,000 in your back pockets.
0:35:55 > 0:35:59OK. First you've got to choose a category. You have a choice of five options. They are...
0:36:07 > 0:36:10I don't know...European Theatre or Political History,
0:36:10 > 0:36:12so either Pop Stars or British Actresses.
0:36:12 > 0:36:16- Yeah, I was thinking the same. So...- Pop Stars.- Films.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18We've not had a film question, so...
0:36:18 > 0:36:20- Go for that?- Go for British Actresses.- Happy with that?
0:36:20 > 0:36:24Do we know any? Judi Dench. Maggie Smith.
0:36:24 > 0:36:26- Let's go with British Actresses. - Yeah. OK.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29OK. British Actresses it is. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:36:29 > 0:36:34We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:36:35 > 0:36:37...as they could. Richard.
0:36:37 > 0:36:39Yeah, any feature film made for cinema release
0:36:39 > 0:36:43for which Emma Thompson has received an acting credit prior to May 2012, please.
0:36:43 > 0:36:48As always, no short films, TV films or documentaries but voice performances do count.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51- Very good luck, guys. - OK. Thanks very much.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:54 > 0:36:58All you need, to win that £6,000, is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:58 > 0:37:02- Are you ready?- Yeah.- OK. Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:04 > 0:37:09Nanny McPhee. You've got two. Nanny McPhee, Nanny McPhee 2.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12- Is it called Nanny McPhee 2? - I don't know.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14She was in Remains Of The Day with Anthony Hopkins.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17I think. Pride And Prejudice, I think.
0:37:17 > 0:37:20What about that one that's the Ben Elton adaptation?
0:37:20 > 0:37:22Inconceivable. Maybe Baby.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26OK. Well, let's go with Maybe Baby.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30- Nanny McPhee 2. - And Remains Of The Day.
0:37:30 > 0:37:34- Happy with that?- I think so. I can't think of any others. That'll do.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37- OK. You're happy?- Yeah.- Sure?
0:37:37 > 0:37:40We'll stop the clock there. Well, there we are.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43You're happy. You've got three answers. We want Emma Thompson films.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45I now need to know what those there answers are.
0:37:45 > 0:37:48- Nanny McPhee 2.- Nanny McPhee 2.
0:37:49 > 0:37:51- Maybe Baby.- Maybe Baby.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53- And Remains Of The Day. - And Remains Of The Day.
0:37:53 > 0:37:57OK. Now, of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:37:57 > 0:38:00- Maybe Baby.- Maybe Baby. - Maybe Baby, we'll bung that last.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03Which is your least likely?
0:38:03 > 0:38:05- Remains Of The Day is quite a well-known...- Yeah.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08So's Nanny McPhee 2, so either or.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12- Either or. Nanny McPhee 2, probably.- Nanny McPhee 2.
0:38:12 > 0:38:16OK. We'll put that first. OK. Let's put those up on the board in that order and here they are.
0:38:21 > 0:38:25OK. So we were looking for Emma Thompson films.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27You said Nanny McPhee 2 was your least confident answer.
0:38:27 > 0:38:31You weren't sure if that's the name of the film, but there has been a sequel, definitely, hasn't there?
0:38:31 > 0:38:36Now, remember, you only have to find one pointless answer to win that jackpot of £6,000.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40What would you do with £6,000, Martyn?
0:38:40 > 0:38:42I've got my wedding coming up, so I might...
0:38:42 > 0:38:45buy myself new car.
0:38:45 > 0:38:46LAUGHTER
0:38:48 > 0:38:51Very good indeed. Max?
0:38:51 > 0:38:55I was thinking about getting a second-hand Harley
0:38:55 > 0:38:58but Martyn and Paula have done a lot for me over the years,
0:38:58 > 0:39:01so I'd probably give it all to him for his wedding, to be fair.
0:39:01 > 0:39:02- AUDIENCE: Aww! XANDER:- Aw.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04Can I have that written down?!
0:39:08 > 0:39:12OK. Well, let's hope one of these three answers will win that jackpot for you.
0:39:12 > 0:39:16OK. Nanny McPhee, your first answer. Has to be right.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19Has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot of £6,000.
0:39:19 > 0:39:23So, for £6,000, how many people said Nanny McPhee 2?
0:39:26 > 0:39:29Oh. Bad luck.
0:39:30 > 0:39:34An incorrect answer, so unfortunately, obviously, not a pointless answer,
0:39:34 > 0:39:37which means you only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40Your next answer was The Remains Of The Day.
0:39:40 > 0:39:44You were very confident about this. You're certain it's a correct answer.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47Question is, how many people said it? Has to be pointless for you to win that money.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50So, for £6,000, your second shot at the jackpot.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53How many people said The Remains Of The Day?
0:39:55 > 0:39:59There we are. It's correct. So Nanny McPhee 2 turned out to be an incorrect answer
0:39:59 > 0:40:02but The Remains Of The Day, very much correct.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05Down it goes. Into the 20s. Into the teens.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07Still going down. Still going.
0:40:14 > 0:40:195. OK. So everything is now riding on Maybe Baby.
0:40:19 > 0:40:21And you're pretty sure she's in Maybe Baby?
0:40:21 > 0:40:25Pretty sure. I think it's a typical kind of Emma Thompson film
0:40:25 > 0:40:28with English actors in it, so...
0:40:29 > 0:40:32- Maybe.- OK. Well, very best of luck. We are looking for Emma Thompson films.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34Your third and final answer was Maybe Baby.
0:40:34 > 0:40:38You said this was your most confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:40:38 > 0:40:41Has to be right and it has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44This is your last shot at it. So, for £6,000, let's find out.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47Maybe Baby. Is it pointless?
0:40:50 > 0:40:52It's right.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55Nanny McPhee 2 was incorrect,
0:40:55 > 0:40:58The Remains Of The Day took us down to 5.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00Maybe Baby, absolutely bang on the money,
0:41:00 > 0:41:02down it goes, still going down.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04Yes! You've done it!
0:41:06 > 0:41:09Very, very well done. That's brilliant. Fabulous.
0:41:10 > 0:41:13Brilliant. Superb.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22Wow. Well done.
0:41:24 > 0:41:27Oh, congratulations. Maybe Baby was a pointless answer,
0:41:27 > 0:41:30which means you go home with our jackpot of £6,000.
0:41:30 > 0:41:32Very, very well done.
0:41:32 > 0:41:34WHOOPING
0:41:38 > 0:41:40Brilliant. So pleased for you guys. Very well played. 2000,
0:41:40 > 0:41:43that film was, based on the Ben Elton novel Inconceivable.
0:41:43 > 0:41:47Nanny McPhee 2 was actually called Nanny McPhee And The Big Bang
0:41:47 > 0:41:49or Nanny McPhee Returns in the States.
0:41:49 > 0:41:53With that money, you could force Sebastian Coe to hurdle for you(!)
0:41:55 > 0:41:56Let's take a look at more pointless answers.
0:41:56 > 0:41:59There's quite a few well-known films up here.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01An Education. She plays a headmistress in that.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04Imagining Argentina, where she's married to Antonio Banderas.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Impromptu from 1991.
0:42:07 > 0:42:09In The Name Of The Father, she was Oscar-nominated for that.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11The story of the Guildford Four.
0:42:11 > 0:42:14There's Maybe Baby, that just won you £6,000.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16Peter's Friends. Peter there, of course, being Stephen Fry.
0:42:17 > 0:42:21Primary Colors, she plays the first lady to John Travolta's president in that.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23Stranger Than Fiction, she plays an author.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26And she's also a voice in the 2002 animation Treasure Planet.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29You could also have had Carrington and The Winter Guest.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31Very well done if you got any of those.
0:42:31 > 0:42:33No money for you, I'm afraid, but congratulations, guys.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35Very, very well-earned.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38Well, thanks once again to our winning players, Max and Martyn,
0:42:38 > 0:42:41who go away with today's jackpot of £6,000. Very well done.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43CHEERING
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Join us next time, when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:42:50 > 0:42:54- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
