0:00:21 > 0:00:24Thank you very much indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:24 > 0:00:27the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.
0:00:27 > 0:00:28Let's meet today's players.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35Now, first, we welcome back David and Hannah.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38You were on the show last time. Everyone gets two chances to reach the final.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40This is your second and final chance.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43David, remind us how you know each other.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46We're married, we've been married for three and a half years, and together for 12 years.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50- Together... You didn't say that last time. You've been together for 12 years!- We have.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52- I was 15 when we got together.- Wow!
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Wow!
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Oh, that's amazing! Gosh, well done you, brilliant.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59Now then, Hannah, tell us what happened last time.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02- We got to the head-to-head, which was brilliant.- It was brilliant.
0:01:02 > 0:01:07Where David decided to say Nicole Kidman as an acting Elizabeth.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09Maybe she was acting very well, wasn't she?
0:01:09 > 0:01:11I thought I was going to have a shot.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15- It's the sort of trickery that Richard occasionally pulls out of the bag, isn't it?- Not really.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17LAUGHTER
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Hannah, do you have any sort of special interests
0:01:19 > 0:01:22that might sort of feed into a bit of specialist Pointless knowledge?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25- Um... Disney.- OK.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27We really like Disney World, we've been a few times
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- and we got engaged at Disneyland Paris.- Did you?- Yeah.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32You're a romantic, David.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Welcome to the show, David and Hannah. Great to have you here.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39And next, we welcome back Ian and Martin, also on the show last time.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43Ian and Martin, we discovered, are band mates in the Lazy Giants band
0:01:43 > 0:01:46and they're tearing apart the Darlington area at the moment.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Martin, what happened last time?
0:01:48 > 0:01:51Uh... Germans. Famous Germans.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53LAUGHTER
0:01:53 > 0:01:57- Yeah, we don't know our Germans as well as we thought we did. - We don't.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59- Ian had a bit of a...name issue. - Yeah, it was...
0:01:59 > 0:02:02Yeah, the name issue - Andrea Merkel.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05That was last time. We will draw a line under that. Lovely to have you back on the show,
0:02:05 > 0:02:09I have a feeling we're going to see much more of you this time round. I hope so, anyway.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13Best of luck. And next, we welcome Ben and Tom. How do you two know each other?
0:02:13 > 0:02:15I'm his father.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17- And where are you from, Ben? - I'm from Manchester.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19From Manchester. And Tom?
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Well, I was in Manchester until I retired.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23I'm now living in Alveston, in the Lake District.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25Alveston, the Lake District, lovely!
0:02:25 > 0:02:28- What are you doing with your retirement?- Well, I was a vicar,
0:02:28 > 0:02:32so...in a way, you never kind of retire,
0:02:32 > 0:02:34you kind of carry on. But much less.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36Are you attached to a parish up in Alveston?
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Yes. Alveston Parish Church.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40- Yeah.- I help out and do a bit of spiritual direction.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Ben, what sort of things do you like to get up to in your spare time?
0:02:43 > 0:02:46I'm obsessed by running, I run non-stop.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48Charity runs, those sorts of things?
0:02:48 > 0:02:50- No, just... I go out and run... - Just go out and run?
0:02:50 > 0:02:53For...as far as I can till I get tired and turn round.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55How far is that, generally?
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Um... I go into sort of fells and run about 20 miles every week.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01But half of that is going to be fun, the bits downhill.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04- They'll be good, yeah, yeah. The bits uphill.- Mm, good stuff.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Well, Ben and Tom, a warm welcome to the show. It's great to have you here.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Finally, we've got Vivianne and Barbara. How do you too know each other?
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Go on.
0:03:12 > 0:03:13THEY LAUGH
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Well, we're social members of a bowls club.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- Are you?- But we don't play bowls. - Oh, you're just the social members.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20We just look at them playing.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21SHE LAUGHS
0:03:21 > 0:03:22You just come and watch...
0:03:22 > 0:03:25It's very much a spectator sport, isn't it, bowls?
0:03:25 > 0:03:26SHE LAUGHS
0:03:26 > 0:03:30And we organise trips and days out and things like that.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32I see, it's all about the parties, isn't it, really, bowls?
0:03:32 > 0:03:34It's famous for it.
0:03:34 > 0:03:35THEY LAUGH
0:03:35 > 0:03:38So, what do you like to get up to when you're not watching bowls?
0:03:38 > 0:03:39SHE LAUGHS
0:03:39 > 0:03:43I've got five grandchildren, so they keep me very busy.
0:03:43 > 0:03:44I bet they do, yes.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47So do you think you'd be quite good if children's literature comes up,
0:03:47 > 0:03:49children's television, these sorts of things?
0:03:49 > 0:03:51- I hope so.- I would hope so.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54Vivianne, how about you? Anything you hope doesn't come up?
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Science, anything with arithmetic - forget it.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58SHE LAUGHS
0:03:58 > 0:04:01OK. Barbara, anything you want to add to that?
0:04:01 > 0:04:04- Boy bands and girl bands. - Boy bands and girl bands.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06- But everything else, Barbara, you are going to be right across.- Yes.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08THEY LAUGH
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Brilliant. Lovely to have you here, a warm welcome to you.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14We'll find out more about you all later on. There's only one person left to introduce.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17There are now reportedly over 100 Richard look-alikes.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20They're paid to go to parties and ask obscure questions,
0:04:20 > 0:04:22though we have got the original right here.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25- It is my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya!
0:04:25 > 0:04:28APPLAUSE
0:04:30 > 0:04:32That's a terrifying thought.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36- I just had an absolutely brilliant idea for a TV show.- What?
0:04:36 > 0:04:37A killer idea.
0:04:37 > 0:04:42A series of novels and a massive, huge TV hit.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Um... Tom as a detective.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Retired vicar living in the Lake District.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47LAUGHTER
0:04:47 > 0:04:51- He's got a very calm voice, doesn't he?- Yes.- He's got a very, very commanding voice.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53- What's your surname, Tom?- Thomas.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Oh!
0:04:55 > 0:04:57- That's just a gift from God! - Tom Thomas!
0:04:57 > 0:04:59- Tom Thomas!- Who's not watching that?
0:04:59 > 0:05:03That's getting 65 million viewers every week.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Done. You in, Tom?
0:05:05 > 0:05:07- Oh, absolutely.- Brilliant.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09You're 0.8% of this idea.
0:05:09 > 0:05:10LAUGHTER
0:05:10 > 0:05:12That's your image rights sold to us.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15- We've got two returning pairs today. They both did rather well last time. - Yes.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19And they were both knocked out. We saw David and Hannah get through to the head-to-head
0:05:19 > 0:05:22and Martin and Ian got knocked out sort of on a technicality.
0:05:22 > 0:05:27Ian, I think, knew the answer, he just... The wrong thing came out of his mouth. It's the truth.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30But also, we've been spending quite a lot of time since the last show
0:05:30 > 0:05:32listening to their band, haven't we, the Lazy Giants.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- Brilliant.- Big fan.- Big, big fan.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38- I'm a big fan of Susanna The Scanner, that's my...- Susanna The Scanner. - Yeah.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41I am lost in Quicksand as well, Quicksand.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45- Quicksand is a great song. You guys have got a real sound. - Thanks.- Thanks.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50Now, interestingly, we've recently sold a very big detective series to a major US network.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- And we're looking for a theme tune. Lazy Giants involved?- Yeah.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55We'll talk fees first.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58I was worried we'd go with maybe turn Susanna The Scanner into Hosanna The Scanner.
0:05:58 > 0:05:59Maybe, that might be a...
0:05:59 > 0:06:01LAUGHTER
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- It's not bad.- We're up for that, yeah.- It's not bad, is it, Tom?
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Susanna The Scanner. And you can maybe be in it.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09You could be a dithering local police officer.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11LAUGHTER
0:06:11 > 0:06:14And Thomas always has to just shake his head whenever you turn up...
0:06:14 > 0:06:16I'll be the slow one... He's...
0:06:16 > 0:06:17I'll be sort of plodding up the fells.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22Mr Tom, Mr Tom, I do believe it was John the Farmhand who's done it!
0:06:22 > 0:06:24And he'll go, "Oh, dear."
0:06:24 > 0:06:27What with a man from the south west in Alveston?
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Because it's the only other accent you can do.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31LAUGHTER
0:06:31 > 0:06:34- Clever, clever. Well, let's do this show first.- Yeah, yeah.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37OK, all our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40In order to get to the final round and be in with a chance of winning our jackpot,
0:06:40 > 0:06:44our contestants need to find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46So the fewer of our 100 people who knew the answer,
0:06:46 > 0:06:48the fewer points you'll all score.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51What everyone's trying to do, is to find a pointless answer -
0:06:51 > 0:06:52an answer that none our 100 people got.
0:06:52 > 0:06:56And each time that happens, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Nobody won the jackpot last time, so we added another £1,000 to that.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02So today's jackpot starts off at £2,000.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06APPLAUSE
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Right, if everyone is ready, let's play Pointless.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17OK, in the first round, each of you must give me one answer.
0:07:17 > 0:07:18You cannot confer with your partner.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22Whichever pair has the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26So try and make sure that's not you. Our first category this afternoon is...
0:07:29 > 0:07:34Royals. Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second?
0:07:34 > 0:07:37And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41OK, our question concerns...
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Monarchs of the world.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Ben doesn't look happy with that at all. Richard.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Yes, on each pass, we're going to show you the names of seven monarchs.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56You need to tell us which country they reign in or they reigned in.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58And when you do, give us the name of the country as it was,
0:07:58 > 0:08:00when they acceded to their throne, please.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03It's going to be 14, have a go at home as well. Very best of luck.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05OK, thanks very much.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07David and Hannah, you all drew lots before the show today.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09You are going to go first.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13So we are looking for the countries in which these monarchs reign or reigned.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16And we have got on our first board...
0:08:41 > 0:08:43I'll read those all one last time.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Phew!
0:09:07 > 0:09:09- Hannah.- Right.
0:09:09 > 0:09:10SHE LAUGHS
0:09:10 > 0:09:13I'm going to have to take an educated guess.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16And I'm going for Emperor Hirohito, Japan.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Emperor Hirohito, Japan, says Hannah.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said Japan.
0:09:23 > 0:09:24It's right.
0:09:28 > 0:09:29APPLAUSE
0:09:29 > 0:09:3056. High score,
0:09:30 > 0:09:32but a correct answer.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34And it's a lot better than 100. Richard.
0:09:34 > 0:09:35It is a big score, yeah.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38He was the 124th emperor and a noted marine biologist.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Martin.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Ooh...
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Emperor Qin Shi Huang.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47And...
0:09:47 > 0:09:49China.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53China, says Martin, for Emperor Qin Shi Huang.
0:09:53 > 0:09:58Let see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02It's absolutely right, Martin, very, very well done.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Look at that, 33!
0:10:06 > 0:10:07A good score.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Again, it's a good educated guess here.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15He said his dynasty would last for 10,000 generations.
0:10:17 > 0:10:18- No.- No.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Ben.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25Um... Tsar Nicholas II is Russia, isn't it? I think.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Oh, I hope it is. I think it's Russia, Tsar Nicholas.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30Russia, says Ben. Let's see if that's right and, if it is,
0:10:30 > 0:10:32let's see how many people said Russia for Tsar Nicholas II.
0:10:34 > 0:10:35It's right.
0:10:40 > 0:10:4358, a right answer.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47Yes, the last Tsar of Russia, of course, assassinated in 1918.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50But who assassinated him in that sleepy Lake District village?
0:10:50 > 0:10:51LAUGHTER
0:10:51 > 0:10:54- Anyone could have done that. - That's a job for the local bobby!
0:10:54 > 0:10:55LAUGHTER
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Wait up, Reverend Tom! I think I've caught him.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01I don't think you have, young man.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03It just writes itself, doesn't it?
0:11:03 > 0:11:04Oh, brilliant.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Now then, Vivianne.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08I've heard of most of them.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11The only one that I think I kind of know
0:11:11 > 0:11:13is King Gustav VI, Sweden.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16King Gustav VI of Sweden, says Vivianne.
0:11:16 > 0:11:21Let's find out if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many people said it. King Gustav VI, Sweden.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Oh, it's right! Very well done, Vivianne.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30I think that's going to be a very good answer, 21.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Lovely low score, best score of the pass.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39Yeah, very good answer, King Gustav. Married Lady Louise Mountbatten.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42She was the Queen of Sweden. Let's fill in the rest of the board.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Emperor Haile Selassie is Ethiopia, of course.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47It would have scored 31 points.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51King Mswati III, do you know that one?
0:11:51 > 0:11:54- Swaziland.- Swaziland, that's right.
0:11:54 > 0:11:55It would have scored 5.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58And you might be able to guess by the sort of name,
0:11:58 > 0:12:00King Kamehameha II.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02Would I be able to guess that?
0:12:02 > 0:12:05- Kamehameha.- Kamehameha. Ah!
0:12:05 > 0:12:07That... Hawaii, Hawaii, Hawaii...
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Yeah, but when Hawaii was a country, absolutely right.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Kamehameha II, 4 points.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13So well done if you said that.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- There were five King Kamehamehas. - Kamehameha.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18Halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21Very much the best score of the round was yours, Vivianne.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Very well done. Lovely low score, 21.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26So Vivianne and Barbara, looking absolutely peachy at this stage.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Then, up to 33, where we find Martin and Ian. Well done.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32Up to 56, where we find Hannah and David.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Then, just up a squeak to 58, where we find Ben and Tom.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38So Tom, you have an uphill struggle.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40You should be no stranger to those in Alveston.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42A nice low-scoring answer from you
0:12:42 > 0:12:43we require on the next board.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Let's hope that's enough to keep you in the game. Good luck.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Let's come back down the line. Can the second players take their places at the podium?
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Can I just point out before you reveal the next board
0:12:54 > 0:12:58that I've given you an even harder one to pronounce.
0:12:58 > 0:12:59Good, good, good.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03We're going to see seven more monarchs on the board and here they come.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05We have got...
0:13:05 > 0:13:07HE LAUGHS
0:13:15 > 0:13:16APPLAUSE
0:13:33 > 0:13:361928. King Zog, I am for ever grateful.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38APPLAUSE
0:13:40 > 0:13:43I shall read those all one last time.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Now, remember, we are looking for the countries
0:14:05 > 0:14:07in which these monarchs reign or reigned.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10And you are trying to find the one the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Barbara, you're on 21, a lovely low score.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Courtesy of Vivianne in the last pass.
0:14:15 > 0:14:19Tom and Ben are the highest scorers at the moment on 58.
0:14:19 > 0:14:20If you can score 36 or less,
0:14:20 > 0:14:23you will avoid becoming the new highest scorers.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25I think I know three of them.
0:14:25 > 0:14:30And I think I'll go for King Louis XIV of France.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34France you are going to say for Louis XIV. Here comes your red line.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38You get below that, you are through to the next round, Barbara.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Let's see how many people said France for Louis Quatorze.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49APPLAUSE
0:14:49 > 0:14:5159. I think that's probably enough to see you through, Barbara.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54We shall discover, but 80 is your total.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57It absolutely is a big score, but much better than 100.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Absolutely, yeah. Became king at the age of five.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01Tom.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04- Mmm.- Tom, we need a low score from you.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06I think you're going to be quite good at this.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Mm, no, I don't think I am.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12I'll go for Juan Carlos, Spain.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16King Juan Carlos, who you think reigns in Spain.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Here is your red line.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Let's see, King Juan Carlos of Spain.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23Is that right? How many people said it?
0:15:23 > 0:15:24It is right.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29APPLAUSE
0:15:29 > 0:15:3262 takes your total up to 120.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Yeah, absolutely, King Juan Carlos of Spain.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37Now then, Ian, you're on 33.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39The highest scorer, on 120, are Tom and Ben.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42A score of 86 or less will see you through to the next round.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44Yeah, I'm struggling a bit
0:15:44 > 0:15:47with the ones that are left, though.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49I think I'm just going to have to go for the obvious one,
0:15:49 > 0:15:53which is Pharaoh Tutankhamun, Egypt.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Tutankhamun, Egypt, says Ian.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57Here's your red line.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59It's quite a high red line.
0:16:01 > 0:16:02Tutankhamun.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Will it get you below that red line, let's find out how many people said it.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08You've done it!
0:16:08 > 0:16:1066. Very, very well done.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12APPLAUSE
0:16:12 > 0:16:1566 and 33, it takes your total to 99.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Yeah, well played, Ian. You did what you had to do there.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21It was famously discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Now, David, we have a game on our hands here.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25You're on 56,
0:16:25 > 0:16:27the highest scorers, on 120, are Tom and Ben.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30You have to score 63 or less to stay in the game.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32You were head-to-head last time.
0:16:32 > 0:16:36Talk us through the board.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38I've heard of King Zog,
0:16:38 > 0:16:41but I've no clue where that is.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45I've got educated-ish guesses for the other three.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49Queen Beatrix, I think it's either the Netherlands or Denmark.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51Mohammed Reza Shah Pahlavi,
0:16:51 > 0:16:55I thought maybe Saudi Arabia, but maybe Pakistan.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59And then, I was thinking Sultan Haji may be something about Morocco,
0:16:59 > 0:17:05but then I remembered Brunei has a sultan. So I'm going to go Brunei.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07You're going to say Brunei. Let's see.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10Is it Brunei and, if it is, how many people said it?
0:17:12 > 0:17:15Very, very well done. You've done it, brilliant!
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Five, David!
0:17:20 > 0:17:21That's a great score!
0:17:21 > 0:17:23APPLAUSE
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Fantastic bit of reasoning and it's earned you a total of 61
0:17:25 > 0:17:27and a place in the next round. Very well done.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30Terrific answer, David. That educated guess played off,
0:17:30 > 0:17:32very tough when you're fourth in line on a board like that.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35One of the world's richest men, the Sultan of Brunei.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Let's go through the rest of the board.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39So Queen Beatrix, David,
0:17:39 > 0:17:41if you'd had to have gone for the Netherlands or Denmark,
0:17:41 > 0:17:43what would you have gone for?
0:17:43 > 0:17:44Netherlands.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46Netherlands is the right answer. Absolutely.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48It would have scored you 43.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Mohammed Reza Shah Pahlavi was the Shah of Iran
0:17:51 > 0:17:52before Ayatollah Khomeini.
0:17:52 > 0:17:57You would have scored 12 points. And King Zog. Do you know that one?
0:17:57 > 0:17:58Uh... It's Albania, I think.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Yeah, he was King of Albania. Absolutely right.
0:18:00 > 0:18:0120 points for that one.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04So Brunei actually the best answer on that board. Well done.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Very good. Thanks very much, Richard.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08So, at the end of our first round,
0:18:08 > 0:18:10the pair who'll be leaving us with the highest score of 120,
0:18:10 > 0:18:12I'm afraid it's Tom and Ben.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15Nothing wrong with your answers at all. It was just quite high.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18Tsar Nicholas and King Juan Carlos between them
0:18:18 > 0:18:20ratcheted up to 120 points.
0:18:20 > 0:18:21That is quite high.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Did you know any of those other ones, Tom, when they were filled in?
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Yes, I did. I knew Queen Beatrix.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30I was just working out we still wouldn't have made it.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32We'll see you next time, Tom and Ben. We look forward to that.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Meanwhile, thank you very much for playing. Great contestants.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38APPLAUSE
0:18:38 > 0:18:41But, for the remaining three pairs, is now time for Round Two.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Now, sadly, at the end of this round,
0:18:48 > 0:18:50another pair will be leaving us.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Wouldn't like to guess which pair that'll be.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54I think you all played very well in that round.
0:18:54 > 0:18:55Some good answers from all of you.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59Very best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for Round Two is...
0:19:02 > 0:19:06- Children's TV, Barbara, this plays right into your hands.- Yes.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:19:09 > 0:19:13And whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:19:19 > 0:19:25to name as many female Blue Peter presenters since 1958 as they could.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Female Blue Peter presenters since 1958. Richard.
0:19:29 > 0:19:33Yes, we're looking for the name of any female who's been one of the main presenters on Blue Peter
0:19:33 > 0:19:37from its beginning in 1958 right through to May 2012, please.
0:19:37 > 0:19:41Any of the main presenters who've been female. Very best of luck.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Thanks very much, Richard. Now then, David.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47I've got one in my mind than I'm not totally certain on.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51So I'm going to go for a possibly more obvious one and say Konnie Huq.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54Konnie Huq, says David, Konnie Huq. Let's see if that's right
0:19:54 > 0:19:57and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Konnie Huq.
0:19:59 > 0:20:00Absolutely right.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08APPLAUSE
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- Konnie Huq.- Yes, the longest-serving ever female presenter on Blue Peter.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18There's only one person who's presented Blue Peter longer than her, and that's John Noakes.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21- Really? I didn't know that. - Yeah, isn't that amazing?- Yeah.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Ian.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26I'm trying to think of a modern one.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28It's on the tip of my tongue, but I can't remember,
0:20:28 > 0:20:32so I'm going to go slightly before my time,
0:20:32 > 0:20:34a female presenter which is Janet Ellis.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Janet Ellis, says Ian.
0:20:36 > 0:20:42Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Janet Ellis.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43Absolutely right.
0:20:49 > 0:20:50APPLAUSE
0:20:50 > 0:20:51Very well done, Ian.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Yeah, Janet Ellis, who was host from 1983 to 1987.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Now then, Barbara.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03I can't think of one.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Honestly. Not one...
0:21:05 > 0:21:07So... Katie Price?
0:21:07 > 0:21:11LAUGHTER
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Well, it's worth it just for the thought, isn't it?
0:21:13 > 0:21:15LAUGHTER
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Oh, Katie Price. Let's see if that's right, shall we?
0:21:18 > 0:21:20And if it is, let's see how many people said Katie Price.
0:21:22 > 0:21:26- Oh, that's a shame.- What a shame in every sense, Barbara.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Yes, Katie Price, I'm afraid, not yet a Blue Peter presenter.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32That's incorrect and scores you 100 points. But what points they are!
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Thank you for that, Barbara.
0:21:34 > 0:21:35Katie Price.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38Yeah. Sorry, Barbara, as I say, this only goes up to May 2012,
0:21:38 > 0:21:40- you never know in the future.- No.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43I think you may be mixing up Blue Peter and Peter Andre. They're very easily...
0:21:43 > 0:21:45LAUGHTER
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Half way through the round, let's take a look at the scores.
0:21:50 > 0:21:5218, the best score of the pass, Ian, very well done indeed.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Ian and Martin looking pretty sturdy.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Then, up to 23, where David and Hannah also look pretty sturdy.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Then, I'm afraid it's all the way up to 100, Barbara.
0:22:00 > 0:22:01What a shame!
0:22:01 > 0:22:04- You'll think of all them, of course, in the next minutes.- Yes.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Vivianne, it's going to require a miracle,
0:22:07 > 0:22:11but it is going to require a low score from you most definitely.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Best of luck with that. We're going to come back down the line.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:22:18 > 0:22:22OK, so we're looking for female Blue Peter presenters since 1958.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25And Vivianne, you're going to try and find the most obscure one,
0:22:25 > 0:22:27the one that fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Is this any better for you than it was for Barbara?
0:22:29 > 0:22:34Probably not, but the only one that I can think of is Valerie Singleton.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Valerie Singleton, says Vivianne, Valerie Singleton.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39No red line for you as you are the highest scorers by a margin.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42But let's see, how many people said Valerie Singleton.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45It's right.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50APPLAUSE
0:22:50 > 0:22:55That takes your total up to an unbeatable 163, I'm afraid. Richard.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Yeah, punishingly high score, Valerie Singleton.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Valerie Singleton OBE for her services to broadcasting.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03There used to be a gallery in Bloomsbury, in London,
0:23:03 > 0:23:06called Gallery Singleton, which I always used to like as I drove past.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09I'd rather see a bike shop called Jones Spokes.
0:23:09 > 0:23:10LAUGHTER
0:23:10 > 0:23:13An off-licence called Peter Drunken.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16LAUGHTER
0:23:16 > 0:23:17Yeah, I guess.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Now, Martin.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23Good news, you're in the head-to-head whatever happens.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25- But let's have a good answer from you.- OK.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27I could figure out a couple of obvious ones,
0:23:27 > 0:23:29obviously, I might just as well try something...
0:23:29 > 0:23:33There's one I'm pretty confident of, which I think was Katy Hill.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Katy Hill, says Martin. Katy Hill.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Let's see if that's right. No red line for you, you're already through.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40But let's see how many people said Katy Hill.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43Absolutely right.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Very well done, Martin, that's a great answer.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Takes your total up to 22.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56APPLAUSE
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Another great answer from Martin. I was wondering, Barbara, if in your head
0:23:59 > 0:24:01you knew Katy Hill and it came out as Katie Price.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04I think I did, I had the wrong surname.
0:24:04 > 0:24:05LAUGHTER
0:24:05 > 0:24:08If it was up to me, I wouldn't charge you the points.
0:24:08 > 0:24:09THEY LAUGH
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Now then, Hannah.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13You're also through to the next round.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16But let's have a brilliant low-scoring answer.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18The way David was nodding at Katy Hill there,
0:24:18 > 0:24:21something tells me you might know quite a bit about Blue Peter.
0:24:21 > 0:24:22- No.- Really? Just David, then.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25It's probably the only children's programme I never watched.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28All the answers I knew for sure have already gone.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31I think there's one called Helen Skelton,
0:24:31 > 0:24:33- so I'm going to have to go with that.- Helen Skelton.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37Helen Skelton. Is it right? There's no red line for you, cos you're already through.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39But let's see - Helen Skelton.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Absolutely right.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49Seven! Very well done indeed.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51It takes your total up to a lovely round 30.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Good answer, Hannah.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57She started hosting Blue Peter in September 2008.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00Let's take a look at the... There's only one pointless answer here,
0:25:00 > 0:25:03she hosted Blue Peter from 1996 to 1998
0:25:03 > 0:25:07alongside Konnie Huq and Katy Hill and it was...
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Romana D'Annunzio, so very, very well done if you said that.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Pointless answer.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Tina Heath would have scored you 1, Anita West 2.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16There's some other low scorers - Leila Williams 2,
0:25:16 > 0:25:19Diane-Louise Jordan would have scored you 3, as would Liz Barker.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21We've had Katy Hill, Caron Keating would have scored 5,
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Zoe Salmon, 6, Yvette Fielding, 8, Sarah Greene, 11.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Anthea Turner, 14.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Let's take a look at the top three answers, though.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31We've already seen a couple of them.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33Lesley Judd was third with 23.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36Then, it's Konnie Hug, 23 as well.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40And way out in front, Valerie Singleton on 63.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43If you want to be famous for ever, be famous in the '70s.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45- Exactly right.- That's right.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48Thanks very much indeed, Richard. So, at the end of Round Two,
0:25:48 > 0:25:51the pair with the highest score is Vivianne and Barbara.
0:25:51 > 0:25:52Oh, dear!
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Valerie Singleton, perfectly good answer,
0:25:54 > 0:25:58but by a country mile, the highest scoring answer there.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Obviously, apart from Katie Price, which was...
0:26:01 > 0:26:02which was sort of brilliant.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04Vivianne and Barbara, we'll see you again next time.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06We look forward to that very much indeed.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Meanwhile, thank you so much for playing. Lovely contestants.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11APPLAUSE
0:26:11 > 0:26:15For the remaining two pairs, things are about to get more exciting as we enter the head-to-head.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23Well, congratulations, David and Hannah, Martin and Ian.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25You're now only one round away from the final
0:26:25 > 0:26:29and a chance to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at £2,000.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31APPLAUSE
0:26:33 > 0:26:37You're going head-to-head. The pair to win two questions will be playing for that money,
0:26:37 > 0:26:40but the big difference is you're now allowed to confer.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42Very, very best of luck to both pairs.
0:26:42 > 0:26:43Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51OK, here comes your first question. And it concerns....
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Four-letter birds. Richard.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Yes, for this question, I'm going to show you five pictures of birds
0:26:59 > 0:27:01which are commonly known by four-letter names.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Can you pick the most obscure of these, please?
0:27:03 > 0:27:06Thanks very much. Let's reveal our five four-letter birds,
0:27:06 > 0:27:08And here they are. We have got...
0:27:20 > 0:27:21Oh...
0:27:22 > 0:27:24There we are.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28David and Hannah, you played best throughout the show so far, so you go first.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38OK. We're going for C, it's rhea.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40C, rhea.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46Now then, Martin and Ian. Talk us through the board.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48Right, so we've got the obvious ones -
0:27:48 > 0:27:50A being dove
0:27:50 > 0:27:51and D being swan.
0:27:51 > 0:27:55I think E might be a kiwi bird, unless I'm making that up.
0:27:55 > 0:28:00- So shall we just say...- E, kiwi. - Yeah.- Yeah, we'll go E, kiwi.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02E, kiwi.
0:28:02 > 0:28:07So we have, from David and Hannah, we have C, rhea
0:28:07 > 0:28:12Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said C, rhea.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17It is right. That's a great answer.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22How far is going to go down? Oh, 6!
0:28:22 > 0:28:24APPLAUSE
0:28:24 > 0:28:28Very, very well done, David and Hannah. It's a great answer.
0:28:28 > 0:28:306 for rhea.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33Martin and Ian have said E, kiwi.
0:28:33 > 0:28:38E, kiwi. Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said kiwi for E.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42It's right.
0:28:47 > 0:28:48APPLAUSE
0:28:50 > 0:28:53David and Hannah, after one question you're up one-nil, very well done. Richard.
0:28:53 > 0:28:57Yeah, rhea is one of the Scrabble words as well that are used a lot. R-H-E-A.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59A is a dove.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01It's just so showbiz, isn't it?
0:29:01 > 0:29:04Look at the dove. I don't know who does press for the dove.
0:29:04 > 0:29:0582 points.
0:29:05 > 0:29:08B is the best answer on the board.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Very well done at home if you said ruff.
0:29:10 > 0:29:12It would have scored you 2 points.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14D is another of our very, very big scorers.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16It's a swan, of course,
0:29:16 > 0:29:18which 97 people knew.
0:29:18 > 0:29:20Three people didn't know that.
0:29:20 > 0:29:21LAUGHTER
0:29:21 > 0:29:23Well done, anyone who said ruff, that's a very good answer.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26- But rhea also a terrific answer. - Here comes your second question.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Martin and Ian, you have to win this one to stay in the game.
0:29:29 > 0:29:30It concerns...
0:29:33 > 0:29:37- Richard.- We're going to give you five clues now to facts about the great man himself.
0:29:37 > 0:29:39Can you pick the most obscure answer here? Good luck.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42OK, here come our five clues to facts about Stephen Fry.
0:29:42 > 0:29:43And we have got...
0:29:59 > 0:30:01I'll read those all one last time.
0:30:15 > 0:30:19Now then, Martin and Ian, you go first this time.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27Right, we think that the...
0:30:27 > 0:30:312010 football club he joined the board for was Norwich.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33Norwich.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36Norwich City, OK. Norwich City, say Martin and Ian.
0:30:36 > 0:30:40Now, David and Hannah, you can talk us through the rest of the board, if you like.
0:30:40 > 0:30:43Unfortunately, that one's right. We think.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46Host of TV comedy quiz is QI.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Toured this country in a London taxi is the USA.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52I'm kicking myself because I know the film
0:30:52 > 0:30:54and I've read some of his novels
0:30:54 > 0:30:57and I just... Their names elude me at the moment.
0:30:57 > 0:30:59We'll have to go for the USA, for the country he toured.
0:30:59 > 0:31:02OK, you're going to say the USA.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04The country he toured in a London taxi in 2008.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06OK, so we have Norwich City and the USA.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08Martin and Ian said Norwich City, let's see if that's right.
0:31:08 > 0:31:10Let's see how many people said it.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22APPLAUSE
0:31:23 > 0:31:27David and Hannah have said he toured the USA in a London taxi in 2008.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30Let's see, how many people said that and if it's right.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34Absolutely right.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Are we going to beat 16?
0:31:37 > 0:31:38No, it's not. 36.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41APPLAUSE
0:31:41 > 0:31:43Well done, Ian and Martin, you're back in the game.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45After two questions, that's one all. Richard.
0:31:45 > 0:31:48Yeah, he toured the USA for the BBC series Stephen Fry In America.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51Let's take a look at the rest of them. QI, absolutely, it's right.
0:31:51 > 0:31:53But it's a big scorer. It would have scored you 61.
0:31:53 > 0:31:55The other two are low scorers.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57Wrote and directed this 2003 film.
0:31:57 > 0:31:58Wilde.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00- Bright Young Things. - Bright Young Things...
0:32:00 > 0:32:02Lowest scorer with 1 points.
0:32:02 > 0:32:03It would have been a terrific answer.
0:32:03 > 0:32:07Now, the name of his first published novel is a pointless answer.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10I think is The Hippopotamus.
0:32:10 > 0:32:12Absolutely wrong.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14- It's The Liar.- It's The Liar!
0:32:14 > 0:32:16It's The Liar! It's The Liar.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18Oh, dear. Anyway, there we go.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21Good. OK, so here comes your third question.
0:32:21 > 0:32:23Whoever wins this question goes through to the final.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25And it concerns...
0:32:27 > 0:32:29Famous UK houses, Richard.
0:32:29 > 0:32:32Yes, we're going to give you the name of five famous houses from the UK here,
0:32:32 > 0:32:34but we've missed out alternate letters.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37Can you find the most obscure of this? Good luck.
0:32:37 > 0:32:41OK, so let's reveal our five famous houses.
0:32:41 > 0:32:42And we have....
0:32:58 > 0:33:00I'll read those all one last time.
0:33:16 > 0:33:21There we are. Five famous UK houses with missing alternate letters.
0:33:21 > 0:33:24David and Hannah, you go first again this time.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30We're going to go for the bottom one.
0:33:30 > 0:33:31It's Haworth Parsonage.
0:33:31 > 0:33:34Haworth Parsonage, say David and Hannah.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37Martin and Ian, you can now do your thinking out loud.
0:33:38 > 0:33:40Ooh... We're a bit stuck, to be honest.
0:33:40 > 0:33:44The one we definitely know is Castle Howard...
0:33:44 > 0:33:49I think the...the fourth one is obviously something Palace
0:33:49 > 0:33:51and it's got to be something like...
0:33:51 > 0:33:54Let's, let's... Should we go Castle Howard?
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Yeah, OK.
0:33:56 > 0:33:57Yeah, we'll go Castle Howard.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00OK, Castle Howard, you're going to say for the middle one.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03So we have from David and Hannah Haworth Parsonage.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:34:16 > 0:34:18APPLAUSE
0:34:18 > 0:34:203 for Haworth Parsonage.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Very, very well done indeed.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24Martin and Ian have gone for Castle Howard.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said that.
0:34:29 > 0:34:30It's right.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40APPLAUSE
0:34:40 > 0:34:42Which means, David and Hannah, after three questions,
0:34:42 > 0:34:45you are through to the final. 2-1, very well done indeed. Richard.
0:34:45 > 0:34:48Well played. Haworth Parsonage, where the Bronte sisters grew up.
0:34:48 > 0:34:52The best answer on the board, nothing you could have done about, guys,
0:34:52 > 0:34:55- so very well played. Do you want to fill in this?- Yeah.- Top one?
0:34:55 > 0:34:58- Woburn Abbey. - Woburn Abbey, absolutely right. It would have scored 12 points.
0:34:58 > 0:35:02- Next one.- Chatsworth House. - Chatsworth House, yeah.
0:35:02 > 0:35:03That would have scored 9.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05- And Blenheim Palace. - Blenheim Palace. It's right.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07It's the biggest scorer on the board, 31.
0:35:07 > 0:35:11So Haworth Parsonage and Chatsworth House, the best answers on that board.
0:35:11 > 0:35:12Thanks very much, Richard.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15So our losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, Ian and Martin.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18I'm so sorry, really, really good played all the way through.
0:35:18 > 0:35:22- Great to have you on the show. Thank you so much for playing. - Thanks.- Thank you.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24APPLAUSE
0:35:24 > 0:35:28But, for David and Hannah, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34Well, congratulations, David and Hannah.
0:35:34 > 0:35:38You fought off all the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:43 > 0:35:45You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:35:45 > 0:35:49At the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £2,000.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51APPLAUSE
0:35:52 > 0:35:57You've done so well. I mean, an exemplary Pointless career there.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59You were head-to-headers last time,
0:35:59 > 0:36:01slightly more senior head-to-headers this time.
0:36:01 > 0:36:03Well, the rules are very, very simple.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05To win the money, you need to find a pointless answer.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07We haven't had any on the show today.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10You only have to find one now and you'll go home with that money.
0:36:10 > 0:36:15First, though, you've got to choose a category. You have five choices, here they are.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26- How are you for European theatre? - Depends on the question.
0:36:26 > 0:36:30Possibly amazing, possibly dreadful.
0:36:30 > 0:36:34Award-winning films we could go have a go at.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36International pop, possibly better than...
0:36:36 > 0:36:38Not sure we'll know the pointless ones in award-winning films.
0:36:38 > 0:36:43- And probably not international pop. - Let's go films.- Yeah?- Yeah.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46- I don't want it all on my head. - OK, all right, all right. Films.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49OK, films it is. Best of luck. Here we go. Let's find out what the question is.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:36:52 > 0:36:55to name as many films that have won the Best Picture Oscar
0:36:55 > 0:36:56as they could.
0:36:57 > 0:37:01- Richard.- We're looking for any film that's ever won the Best Picture Oscar
0:37:01 > 0:37:04or the equivalent, it used to be called different things, but the same award.
0:37:04 > 0:37:09Right through from the first Oscar ceremony in 1928, right through to the 2012 ceremony, please.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Very, very best of luck.
0:37:11 > 0:37:12Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15OK, you now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:37:15 > 0:37:19All you need to win that £2,000 jackpot is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22- Are you ready?- Yeah.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24OK. Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:37:24 > 0:37:27- There they are, your time starts now.- OK.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30So, there was... I think, Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs did,
0:37:30 > 0:37:32cos they had the seven little...Oscars.
0:37:32 > 0:37:37- Oh, yeah, OK.- The Artist did, didn't it?- Yes.
0:37:37 > 0:37:40And then, we've got Titanic, Schindler's List...
0:37:40 > 0:37:43- The Departed? Did that win?- Maybe.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45Or Inception, that was...
0:37:45 > 0:37:46Road To Perdition?
0:37:46 > 0:37:48Maybe.
0:37:48 > 0:37:49Um...
0:37:50 > 0:37:52What else?
0:37:52 > 0:37:55Think, think, think, think, think. What else?
0:37:55 > 0:37:56I think The Last King Of Scotland,
0:37:56 > 0:37:59but was that just for Whitaker? Just for actor?
0:37:59 > 0:38:00We could go for it.
0:38:00 > 0:38:03I think we should go maybe Snow White,
0:38:03 > 0:38:05Road To Perdition.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10What did you just say?
0:38:10 > 0:38:13The Artist, you said The Departed, Inception. I'm not sure about those.
0:38:13 > 0:38:15No, I don't know. I'm not sure about those.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17Ten seconds left.
0:38:17 > 0:38:21Road to Perdition. I don't think The Last King Of Scotland did.
0:38:22 > 0:38:24We should try it.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29Time up. We were looking for winners of the Oscar For Best Picture.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32I now need your three answers. What are you going to give me?
0:38:32 > 0:38:35- We'll go for Snow White And The Seven Dwarves.- Snow White And The Seven Dwarves.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37- The Piano?- Yeah.- The Piano.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40- Road To Perdition?- Perfect.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43- Road To Perdition. - And Road To Perdition.
0:38:43 > 0:38:47OK, now, of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:47 > 0:38:49- Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs. - Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51We'll put that last.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53Which do you think is your least likely?
0:38:53 > 0:38:56- Road To Perdition.- Yeah, do you think?- Yeah.- OK.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58- Road To Perdition. - Road To Perdition.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00OK, let's put those up on the board in that order and here they are.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02We've got Road To Perdition,
0:39:02 > 0:39:05The Piano and Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08OK, so we were looking for winners of the Oscar For Best Picture.
0:39:08 > 0:39:10Road To Perdition was your least confident answer.
0:39:10 > 0:39:12The one you thought was least likely to be pointless.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14We don't know if it's correct yet.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17We have to find that out and then, it has to be pointless, of course,
0:39:17 > 0:39:19if you're going to win the jackpot of £2,000.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21So let's find out. Road To Perdition. Is it right?
0:39:21 > 0:39:23How many people said it? Good luck.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29Bad luck. An incorrect answer.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31So, unfortunately, not a pointless answer.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34You only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Hannah, what would you do with £2,000?
0:39:36 > 0:39:38Ah... We have an eight-month-old daughter
0:39:38 > 0:39:41and we're taking her to Disneyland for her first birthday.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44- So we'll be able to spend the money on that.- Brilliant.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47And the lights have stopped working in the kitchen,
0:39:47 > 0:39:49so the electrician needs to come round as well.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51It's exciting stuff.
0:39:51 > 0:39:53OK, very good, good practical use for your £2,000.
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Well, very, very best of luck.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57Let's hope one of your two answers wins it for you.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59We need the winner of the Oscar For Best Picture.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02Let's hope nobody said your next answer - The Piano.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07This has to be correct and then, it has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:40:07 > 0:40:11So for £2,000, let's see how many people said The Piano.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Oh, bad luck! Another incorrect answer.
0:40:17 > 0:40:20It's now all riding on Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Which is just as well because you put this last.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24You know, this was your most confident answer.
0:40:24 > 0:40:25Of any of your answers,
0:40:25 > 0:40:29this was the one you thought was most likely to come down to 0.
0:40:29 > 0:40:33- And you remember seven little dwarf Oscars.- But was it for best picture?
0:40:33 > 0:40:34We'll find out.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37To win that jackpot, it has to be right and it has to be pointless.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39Let's find out. For £2,000,
0:40:39 > 0:40:43how many people said Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs. Is it pointless? Good luck.
0:40:47 > 0:40:49Oh, no! Bad luck!
0:40:49 > 0:40:52APPLAUSE
0:40:54 > 0:40:56Bad luck, David and Hannah.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59Sadly, you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02But you do still get to take home a Pointless trophy each.
0:41:02 > 0:41:03So very, very well done for that.
0:41:03 > 0:41:05APPLAUSE
0:41:10 > 0:41:12Yeah, that's very unlucky. There were the seven little Oscars.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15- It was when Walt Disney was given an honorary Oscar.- Oh...
