Episode 19 Pointless

Thank you very much. I'm Alexander Armstrong. Welcome to Pointless,

the quiz show putting obscure knowledge to the test. Let's meet today's players.

-Couple number one.

-I'm Rachel and this is my boyfriend, Harry, and we're from Reading.

-Couple number two.

-I'm John and this is my friend, Tony, and we're from Surrey.

-And couple number three.

-My name's Adam, this is my wife, Jess, and we're from London.

-And our fourth and final couple.

-I'm Gareth, this is my sister, Rebecca. We're from West Yorkshire.

These, ladies and gentleman, are today's contestants.

Thank you all. We'll find out more about you all as we go along.

Only one person left to introduce. Riding gallantly into view on a horse called Accuracy,

he's here to save us from the clutches of misinformation. Am I getting too verbose?

-It's my Pointless friend, Richard.

-Hiya. Hi, everybody.

-Even for you, that was good. How are you?

-I'm really well.

-We've given away a couple of jackpots lately.

-We sure have.

Only one new pair today - Rachel and Harry. They're on podium one, a tricky place to start.

-Best of luck to them.

-Yes, indeed. All our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.

Our contestants need to find the obscure answers they didn't get.

Everyone's looking for a pointless answer which none of them gave.

If they do, we'll add £250 to the jackpot. It wasn't won last time, so we add another £1,000 to that.

Today's jackpot starts off at £2,000.

Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

OK, in this first round I'll take an answer from each of you, but there's no conferring.

The team with the highest score will be eliminated.

OK, our first category today is... Pop Music.

Can you all decide who is going to go first and who's going second?

Whoever's going first please step up to the podium.

OK. And the question concerns...

Artists and their non-English titles.

-Richard?

-Simpler than it sounds, you'll be glad to hear.

On each pass, I'll give you seven hit singles, all with foreign words in the title.

Who had a hit with each of those? The more obscure, the better. An incorrect answer is 100 points.

14 artists to guess. Best of luck.

Thanks, Richard. We are looking for the artists who released these hits with non-English words.

-And we have got...

-HE READS THE LIST

I'll read those all again.

There we are. You just need to give us the name of the artists who released them.

-Harry, welcome to Pointless. Good to have you here.

-Thanks.

-On the first podium.

-The deep end!

-Absolutely. So what do you do?

-I am a student. I study Geography.

-Whereabouts?

-UCL.

-UCL, OK.

-What's your game strategy?

-I'd like to think "Go hard or go home". That's my mantra today.

Go hard or go home. Shall we have that instead of, "That ain't bread"?

-Go hard or go home?

-Yeah!

-I'm not sure it suits us.

-Yeah.

-Quite often with Pointless questions it's go hard AND go home.

Yeah, true. True. But still, I like that. I applaud that attitude.

Are you going to be able to bring that to bear on this round at all?

Certainly not.

Pop music is far from my speciality, but I think I know a couple.

I think I'm going to go for Deja Vu

as Beyonce.

Deja Vu, Beyonce, you are saying. Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said Beyonce.

Absolutely right.

Two!

-Two. That's pretty good. I don't think you'll be going home on that.

-Good start, Harry.

-He went hard there.

-He sure did.

-Did you see that?

-Yeah.

-Whoo!

Beyonce, featuring her then boyfriend, Jay-Z, now her husband.

-Now then, Tony.

-Yes.

-Welcome back.

-Thank you.

-Tell us what happened last time.

-We got through to the Head to Head and it was on national anthems.

That's right. Remind us what you like to get up to.

I play old man's marbles, which is bowls.

-Is it?

-Darts, baking. I like baking cakes.

-Do you?

-Yes.

-Oh, he must have. Presumably you'll have brought one for us.

-He must have.

-You'd never come on a show and say, "The thing I like is baking," and not bring a cake.

I made a pistachio drizzle cake for you.

-Oh!

-So if you don't get that, I'll want to know why.

-Yeah. Anyway, Tony...

-Yes.

-Back to the job in hand.

-Yes.

-Do you know any of these songs?

Oh, dear.

I have to say the only one, and it's going to be an enormous score,

-is Nessun Dorma and Pavarotti.

-Pavarotti, says Tony, for Nessun Dorma. Let's see if it's right

and how many people said it.

Absolutely right.

36.

That's not too bad.

-36 for Pavarotti.

-Good damage limitation, Tony.

He recorded it in 1972 and it was a hit in 1990 with the World Cup.

-OK, now then, Jessica.

-It's not a good round for me!

-Tell us what happened last time.

-Last time I got asked about football mascots.

-That's right. Billy the Badger. You went for Brentford.

-It was Fulham.

-(Come on, Fulham!)

-Anyway...

-We'll put all that behind us.

-I'm going to have a go.

-I may well be wrong, but is Voulez-Vous by Madonna?

-Voulez-Vous by Madonna in 1979.

OK. Well, we shall see. Is it by Madonna, Voulez-Vous?

Bad luck, Jessica. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer. 100 points.

Sorry. Before Madonna's time. I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass.

Now then, Becky. Welcome back. Tell us what happened with you last time.

We went out in the first round cos I didn't know any of the answers and ended up saying a silly one.

That's right. We had Stella McCartney marrying Paul McCartney.

-I did point out it was his daughter, but I didn't know anything else.

-It doesn't make it right, Becky.

-Now then, you're from Mirfield.

-Yes.

-What do you do? Remind us.

-I'm a carer.

-A carer. And in your spare time, what do you get up to?

-I play a brass instrument in a brass band.

-Not the same one as Gareth?

-Not the same one, no.

-How come you're in a rival band?

-I'm better.

-His band is better!

-Have you played any of these songs?

-No!

-See that segue in there? Seamless.

-That was really good.

-I know. Have you got a good answer?

-I do know a few of the answers.

Mi Chico Latino. I know that is Geri Halliwell.

That was a massive hit for me when I was a kid. Voulez-Vous I know is ABBA.

And Autobahn I know, which is by Kraftwerk.

So I think I'm going to go for Autobahn by Kraftwerk.

Autobahn by Kraftwerk. Let's see if that's right and how many people said that.

18. Very well done indeed.

Very well done. 18 for Kraftwerk.

That's much more like it. You were right about the others,

although you probably chose the wrong one. Voulez-Vous was ABBA. That was quite a big scorer, 37.

But you're right about Mi Chico Latino, Geri Halliwell. It was eight. A very good answer.

In Dulci Jubilo. Know that one?

-Yeah, Tubular Bells man. Mike Oldfield.

-Absolutely. Scored three.

And the best answer is Las Palabras de Amor. The Words of Love. A very famous band,

but not a famous song. It's the best answer. Queen.

-A hit for Queen. One point.

-Thanks very much, Richard. We're halfway through.

Let's take a look at the scores. Harry and Rachel, our newcomers, straight in there with two.

Very good scoring skills. Then up to 18, Becky and Gareth.

Up to 36, Tony and John. And then all the way to 100 for Jessica and Adam.

Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

OK, we'll put seven more hits on the board.

-We have got...

-HE READS THE LIST

I'll read those all one last time.

There we are. Seven hits with foreign words in their titles.

Now then, Gareth. Becky did very well on that last pass.

-We discovered you're a music teacher.

-That's correct.

Do you have interests outside music? You compete as a trombonist.

-What else?

-I like to do a bit of sports, a bit of football.

I took up golf and I'm starting to enjoy it more as I get better at it, which helps.

I used to play a bit of squash and cricket at university.

You've got pick of the board. The high scorers are on 100.

A score of 81 or less sees you through.

OK. I think I know a couple.

Luckily I was around for the World Cup in 1998

and I seem to remember Vindaloo being a hit for Fat Les.

Fat Les, says Gareth, for Vindaloo.

Let's see if that's right. Here's your red line. Fat Les for Vindaloo.

Well done. You're through.

Nine.

Very well done indeed.

27 your total, Gareth.

Well played. There's a pair that are very happy to get through. From the 1998 World Cup.

Now then, Adam, you are the high scorers on 100. We need something very clever.

Tell us about last time. Are you reconciled to being the lowest scorer in the whole round

-and you went out?

-It's fine. I wanted to boost the jackpot, but not quite so much luck.

-OK.

-But you've forgiven Jessica.

-Yeah.

-And you'll forgive her for the 100 there?

-Every time.

-Brilliant.

-As long as we win.

-Exactly. You can't leave now. You can't leave in this round.

-What's it going to be? Have you got a good answer?

-I had Fat Les,

but he's obviously popped off for a vindaloo already,

so I've got two answers that I think I know.

I think I'll join Jessica and say Madonna

-for La Isla Bonita.

-La Isla Bonita, Madonna, says Adam.

There's no red line. How many said Madonna? Is it right this time?

It is right!

39.

139, Adam.

Yes, a little too high. Bad luck. A number one single in 1987 for Madonna. The beautiful island.

Indeed. Now, John, we discovered that you are a retired printer.

-I am.

-What do you get up to in your spare time?

I play golf. Darts.

Generally mucking around in the garden, trying to keep the house tidy, et cetera.

-Mainly have a good time.

-Excellent. Now what do you make of this board?

There's a couple that I did know. They've gone. So, basically, I'm going to go for Chanson D'Amour

-by Manhattan Transfer.

-Manhattan Transfer, Chanson D'Amour.

Let's see if that's right. No red line for you. You're through. But how many people said it?

It's right.

17. Very well done, John. That's a great answer.

53, your total there.

A proper blast from the past. Another number one single as well.

-Now then, Rachel.

-Hi.

-Welcome to the show.

-Thank you.

-What do you do?

-I am a student at Swansea University.

-And how did you and Harry meet?

-At school in our Geography class when we were about 14.

-You met in Geography?

-Yes.

-And, Harry, you study Geography.

-Yep.

-What do you study?

-Geography.

That's nice. The romance blossomed, but not at the cost of results.

It could happen. If you'd met at the back of the class.

I actually moved from the back to the front to sit next to him.

Aww!

-So, actually, Harry improved your Geography prospects.

-I think he does. My dad thinks he does!

Harry, well done. This is good.

Very good. OK now, Rachel. Two.

The best score of the show so far.

-What do you make of this board?

-Well, I know two.

I was hoping that no one said them. I think Te Amo is Rihanna.

And Viva La Vida is Coldplay.

-I'm going to go with Te Amo and Rihanna.

-Te Amo, Rihanna.

No red line. You're already through. Is it right? How many said it?

Absolutely right.

Four!

Very, very well done, Rachel. That takes your total up to a single-figure total of six.

So the only new couple, on podium one, best answer on both rounds.

Very, very well played. Good start to your Pointless career.

Let's go through the rest. Viva La Vida, Coldplay, scored 18.

Do you know Je Ne Sais Pas Pourquoi?

-Is it Kylie?

-It is Kylie. Seven. And Minuetto Allegretto?

-The Wombles!

-The Wombles, yeah. That would have scored 10 points.

-So the best answer is Rihanna.

-Very, very well done indeed.

So the pair who will be leaving us with 139 are Adam and Jessica.

I'm sorry, it's you again. There's no hiding away from that. That's a high score.

I'm afraid this is where we say goodbye. Last time, second round. This time, first round.

-It wasn't to be.

-It's been lovely having you. Adam and Jessica!

-Thank you!

But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.

Obviously there's only room for two pairs in our Head to Head round, so one pair leaves after this round.

Very best of luck. Our category for Round Two is...Film.

Film. Can you decide who's going first and second?

And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

Let's find out what the question is.

We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many Quentin Tarantino films as they could.

-Richard?

-We're looking for the name of any feature film for cinema release for which Quentin Tarantino

has received a credit either as director, producer, writer or actor,

up to the end of October, 2012. No TV films, short films, documentaries, video games.

Anything that he's credited as producer, director, writer or actor. Very best of luck.

OK, thanks very much indeed. Wow. So any film for which he is credited as writer, producer,

director or actor. Now then, Harry...

I know a few. Em, but I'm going to take a little bit of a stab as well.

I think it's one of his early ones.

I'm going to go for Jackie Brown.

Jackie Brown, says Harry. Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 said it.

Absolutely right.

Nine!

-Nine for Jackie Brown.

-Good answer, Harry.

A crime thriller directed by Tarantino, starring Pam Grier.

Now then, Tony, how are you on your Quentin Tarantino films?

My brain's ticking over here and there's only one that leaps into it at the moment,

which is Reservoir Dogs.

Reservoir Dogs, says Tony. Let's see how many of our 100 people said Reservoir Dogs.

35.

-35 for Reservoir Dogs.

-Wrote it, directed it and acted in it.

The film that introduced him to the UK audience. It's a good film.

There we are. Now then, Becky, we are looking for any film written by, starring, produced

or directed by Quentin Tarantino. There are quite a lot of films on that list.

There are. And it would be really helpful if I could remember any.

I'm just going to take a guess.

I think he directed

Kill Bill...

Volume One.

OK, Kill Bill: Volume One, says Becky. Is that right? How many of our 100 people said it?

36!

36 for Kill Bill: Volume One, Becky. Very well done.

You dragged that from somewhere. Well done. He directed that as well. Starring Uma Thurman.

We're halfway through. Let's look at the scores. Once again, Harry and Rachel looking very strong,

nine being their score.

Then up to 35 for Tony and John. And a squeak up to 36 where we find Becky and Gareth.

Only by one point, but you are the high scorers. We need a low score.

We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players please step up to the podium?

OK. We are looking for Quentin Tarantino films. Any film in which he has been credited as writer,

producer, director or actor. Now then, Gareth.

-Becky did pretty well. I thought she'd say Stella McCartney again.

-I thought we were going there!

No, she did well. I watched one recently with my girlfriend at home

and I do believe he wrote it.

It has got an extra word in the title that's not suitable for TV,

-but he wrote and directed Inglourious...

-Maybe if Gareth came down and whispered it in your ear

-so you're sure of what it is.

-Yeah, shall we do that?

-Do you want to come down?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

Round you come.

OK. You may go back to your podium now. Back you go!

Er, Inglourious...says Gareth. Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.

-It's correct!

-Good job it is right!

Seven.

Seven. Taking your total up to 43.

-I feel like we're back in the '60s.

-Censorship and all that. He wrote and directed that film.

-Genuinely brilliant film.

-It is.

-Now then, John. How are you feeling about this round?

-Not very good.

I'm going to possibly take a stab at - I don't know if it will be allowed now - Kill Bill 2.

-You're going to say...

-Kill Bill 2.

Here comes your red line. Quite low.

You're on 35. Gareth and Becky on 43. Seven or less sees you through.

Kill Bill 2, says John. Is it right? How many said it?

It's right.

18!

18. Who knows? Maybe that's good enough. Takes your total up to 53.

Very well played, John. The sequel to Kill Bill: Volume One. Scored half the points.

Now then, Rachel. You're in a strong position.

-On 53 we find John and Tony. You're on nine. If you can score 43 or less, you're through.

-OK.

Sorry if this is wrong, Harry, but somewhere in my head I think he was credited for this film.

If it's right, it'll be very good. I'm going to say Hostel 2.

Hostel 2.

-I can tell you right now, if that's right, it's brilliant.

-I think so, but I might be wrong.

-A film I've never... I've never heard of it!

-The follow-up to Hostel 1.

-LAUGHTER

-I loved Hostel 1.

I thought that was brilliant.

-Hostel 2. What do you think, Harry?

-I thought she might go for something like that.

There are a few others I might have gone for before it, but I trust her. I trust her, you know.

She's following your maxim. Go hard or go home.

I don't know. Oh, dear. I don't know if I fancy that any more!

OK, Hostel 2. There's your red line. Below that, Head to Head.

And probably pointless. We'll see. Hostel 2. Is it right? How many people said it?

It's right! Very well done, Rachel.

Unsurprisingly, you are through to the Head to Head.

And it's pointless!

Very well done indeed, Rachel. That adds 250 quid to today's jackpot, taking it to £2,250.

It scores you nothing.

And it leaves your total in single figures at nine. Very well done.

Brilliant, Rachel. How gutsy was that? Very impressive.

The Eli Roth film Hostel 2. Tarantino was the Exec Producer.

-They are horrible films.

-They're hideous, aren't they?

-Oh!

-Really?

-Yeah.

They're quite grim.

-Still watched them.

-LAUGHTER

Let's take a look at some pointless answers. No films he directed,

but a few he produced and acted in. Destiny Turns On The Radio, Eddie Presley, Four Rooms -

he had all sorts of parts in that. He acted in it as well.

These were all films he produced. God Said, "Ha!", Hell Ride, and Hostel: Part II.

Hostel: Part I scored two points.

Iron Monkey, the Roger Avary film Killing Zoe

and Past Midnight, with Rutger Hauer. Very well done if you said any of those.

Thanks, Richard. So the losing pair with a high score of 53 is John and Tony.

Oh, John and Tony. Seeing you there has reminded me about that cake.

-LAUGHTER

-I think that cake is long gone.

-I'm worried about that cake.

-If that cake is somewhere and someone can bring it to us...

-I think it may have gone.

-CHEERING

Ah, how about that?

-Oh.

-I'll have a bit. I'm not going to eat the whole thing.

-Not the whole thing.

Oh, look at that. Mmm!

-That is terrific.

-Really good.

-That's really good.

That's lemon and pistachio. And that sponge... That sponge is to die for.

LAUGHTER

-Lovely even colour there.

-Yeah.

-Not too soggy on the base.

-It's a very good bake.

-That's very, very good.

-That is top notch.

Oh! Oh...

Tony, thank you so much for that cake. That is fantastic.

Oh!

John, Tony, ridiculous sending you home on a low score like 53,

-but that makes you the high scorers. Thank you so much for playing.

-Thank you.

-John and Tony!

But for the two remaining pairs, one step closer to the final as we enter the Head to Head.

Congratulations, Rachel and Harry, Becky and Gareth. You're one round from the final and the jackpot,

which currently stands at £2,250.

Now only one pair can play for that money, so to decide that you are now going to go head to head.

This time, though, you can confer and the first pair to win two questions plays for that jackpot.

Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the Head to Head.

OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...Her Majesty The Queen's Overseas Visits.

The Queen's Overseas Visits. Richard?

We'll show you five photographs of the Queen on official visits overseas.

Can you tell us which country she is visiting? Good luck.

Wow. Tough. OK, let's reveal five visits overseas by Her Majesty The Queen. And here they are...

There we are. Five overseas visits by Her Majesty The Queen.

Rachel and Harry, you've played best so far, so you get to go first.

We're going to go A and Germany.

A, Germany.

Becky and Gareth, the board is yours. Talk us through the photos.

That's put the cat amongst the pigeons because I think that might be Belgium for A.

Just looking at the flag. I think the sticks making them vertical stripes rather than horizontal.

The others would be complete guesses, so I think we have to say A, Belgium.

A, Belgium. So we have A, Germany, versus A, Belgium.

Some great reasoning, Gareth and Becky. Rachel and Harry said Germany. Let's see if that's right.

Bad luck, Rachel and Harry.

Becky and Harry have said Belgium for A. Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 said it.

-It's right!

-Yes!

Oh, five! Very well done indeed!

And, in the event, all it had to be was correct, but correct it was.

-Becky and Gareth, you are up one-nil. Richard?

-That's brilliant play, Gareth.

Very well worked out. A lot of our 100 made the same mistake.

Let's look through the rest. This is really hard. Do you want a go?

-Is B Italy?

-Absolutely right. The clue is the flag. Scored 27.

C is an obvious one.

Is it?!

Well, who's the guy?

-As soon as you get the guy, you've got the country.

-I have no idea who that is!

You're kidding me. You don't recognise King Harald of Norway?!

LAUGHTER

-No...

-It's King Harald of Norway!

-Of course! He's got the Norway badge.

-Anyway, that is a pointless answer.

-I'll say.

Nobody knew that at all. Sorry, King Harald.

-D?

-I think that was a famous visit to Ireland.

-Absolutely right. That's in Cork.

It would have scored 11 points.

-And E?

-I could get only thanks to this gentleman's hat.

-I'm going to say France.

-It is. Dominique de Villepin there. It would have scored 13 points.

-But brilliant work from Gareth.

-Thanks, Richard. Here's your second question.

Rachel and Harry, you have to win to stay in the game. It concerns...

World Snooker Finals.

World Snooker Finals. Gareth looking very happy with that, I think.

-Richard?

-Thank goodness it's about to get easier.

We'll show you five sets of initials that represent a World Snooker Final. We'll give you the year

and the initials of the two players in that final. Tell us who they are.

OK, thanks. Let's reveal our five finalists in World Snooker.

-And here we have...

-HE READS THE LIST

I'll read those all one last time.

There we are. Five World Snooker Finals.

Becky and Gareth, you go first.

I know three of them. It's a case of working out which will be lowest.

I'm thinking most people won't get GD, though RO'S is straightforward.

-So I'll go for the top one. Ronnie O'Sullivan versus Graeme Dott.

-Ronnie O'Sullivan and Graeme Dott,

says Becky and Gareth.

-Now, Rachel and Harry.

-Well, this isn't my subject at all, so it's all on Harry.

But I've got trust in him.

We're going to go for 2005.

Stephen Maguire versus Matthew Stevens.

Stephen Maguire, Matthew Stevens.

Gareth and Becky have said Ronnie O'Sullivan versus Graeme Dott.

Let's see if that's right. How many of our 100 people said that?

It's right.

Nine.

Rachel and Harry said Stephen Maguire versus Matthew Stevens. Is that right? How many said that?

Bad luck, Rachel and Harry. That's incorrect.

That means Becky and Gareth are through to the final, 2-0.

Very well done.

That's very unlucky, Harry. It is Matthew Stevens, but...

-Shaun Murphy!

-Shaun Murphy won in 2005.

It would have been the best answer.

SD versus DT, the most famous final of all. Steve Davis versus Dennis Taylor would have scored you 21.

The first-ever Crucible final, JS v CT. Well done if you said John Spencer versus Cliff Thorburn.

That would have scored seven. And AH v RR, another very famous final.

Alex Higgins versus Ray Reardon. That would have scored 12.

-The best answer is Murphy v Stevens. So unlucky.

-Thanks, Richard.

So at the end of our Head to Head, the losing pair I'm afraid is Rachel and Harry. Oh, dear.

-Oh, that was tough.

-Yeah. It's not going to go down well at home.

-The good news is you'll be back next time.

-Can't wait.

-Had you gone through, that would have been it.

We'll look forward to that. Meantime, thank you for playing. Really good contestants.

But for Gareth and Becky, it's now time for our Pointless final!

Congratulations, Gareth and Becky. You fought off all the competition to win our coveted Pointless trophy.

You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot, which at the end of today's show stands at £2,250.

Well, you've done it. It was Round One the last time.

-This time a whitewash in the Head to Head.

-We were a bit lucky.

-Very.

There were good clues in those photos. They were hard, though! What would you like to see now?

-Me, football.

-Yeah.

-World Snooker Finals!

-Yeah.

-Sport-based stuff. I don't mind a bit of space as well. You never know.

-Music?

-Anything to do with music.

-Anything else for you, Becky?

-Musicals, songs from musicals probably I'd be best at.

-Well, very best of luck.

To win the money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.

Do that and you leave with £2,250. First, you must choose a category.

You have five choices and here they are.

-These are great(!)

-Yeah(!)

I wasn't quite thinking Acid Jazz when I said music.

-We're not going Basketball, Crime Fiction or Acid Jazz.

-No.

-How confident do you feel on International Politics?

-If Nick was here, I would.

-If Nick were here.

-I know!

-We'd all be fine.

-That'd be great.

-I wonder where he is.

-Where is Nick?

He's at work. What do you think? Australian Actresses or Politics?

-Up to you. I don't mind. Australian Actresses.

-We don't know many actresses, do we?

-Go for one.

-Australian Actresses.

-Australian Actresses it is for Becky and Gareth.

Let's find out what the question is.

We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many Cate Blanchett films as they could. Richard?

Any feature film for cinema release for which Cate Blanchett received a credit up to September, 2012.

No TV films, short films, documentaries or her uncredited cameo in Hot Fuzz.

Voice performances do count. Best of luck.

OK, thanks. You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.

All you need to win that £2,250 is for just one of those to be pointless. Are you ready?

-As I'll ever be.

-OK. Let's put 60 seconds on the clock. There they are. Your time starts now.

-Up to you, mate.

-I know. I can actually think. She was in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.

-Yeah, fine.

-She also featured in one of the other Narnia films.

-Prince Caspian?

-Yes.

-Voyage of The Dawn Treader?

-Dawn Treader.

-She's in that.

-Brilliant. Any voice acting? Any cartoons?

-I can't think of anything.

-Not in Shrek or...?

-No.

-Or any Disney film?

-I can't think of any Disney films.

-Can you think of any other films?

-Not at all.

I can only think of the Narnia films. There's three of them.

-Does she appear in Prince Caspian as well?

-I don't think she does.

-But Voyage of The Dawn Treader?

-Yes.

-I...I think so.

-The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, Voyage of The Dawn Treader...

-Yes. Pick a film.

-10 seconds left.

-Think of a cartoon that she might have been in.

Is she in Snow White and The Huntsman?

-No, I don't think so.

-OK, that's time.

We were looking for Cate Blanchett films. I now need three answers.

We'll go for The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.

-Voyage of The Dawn Treader.

-Voyage of The Dawn Treader.

And we'll have to go for a random one. Snow White and The Huntsman.

Snow White and The Huntsman. OK. Which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

-I'd say Voyage of The Dawn Treader.

-We'll put that last. Least likely?

-Snow White and The Huntsman.

-OK, let's pop them up in that order.

We were looking for Cate Blanchett films. Snow White and The Huntsman, the least likely to be,

-let's face it, correct.

-Basically.

-Or pointless.

-But you never know. Maybe she sneaks in.

-Maybe.

-I'm having all the money if it is!

You only need one pointless answer. How many people said Snot White and The Huntsman?

Yep, well, there we are.

Let's move on from there. Not a pointless answer.

Only two more shots at that Pointless jackpot.

Becky, £2,250. What would you be doing with that?

I want to learn how to drive, so that cash will come in very useful because it's expensive.

-Very handy. Gareth, how about you?

-Well, I would have loved to have bought myself a new trombone.

That would go a long way towards contributing to buy one.

Learning to drive, a new trombone. These are very good things.

Cate Blanchett. Let's hope nobody said The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. It has to be pointless.

Did anyone say it? The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.

-Oh!

-Oh...dear.

-An incorrect answer.

-That's not going to help the last one.

-No.

-Oh, dear. Have you maybe got the wrong...

-Wrong actress.

-..actress.

-I don't know any of her other films.

-OK, so everything is now resting

-on your final answer, which was kind of resting on that answer.

-Yes.

-She might be a cameo elf.

-Yeah.

OK, your third and final answer. Let's see. Is it right? Did anyone say it?

Oh, bad luck! Bad luck, bad luck.

Really tough. Unfortunately, you didn't find that pointless answer,

so you don't win today's jackpot of £2,250, which rolls over onto the next show.

You have been excellent contestants. And you do take home our Pointless trophy. Very, very well done.

Yeah, unlucky. Always nice to have a brother and sister on the show. Sorry you didn't win the money.

-I think you're thinking of Tilda Swinton.

-Oh, right, OK.

-Unfortunately.

The biggest scorer was Elizabeth. All three Lord of the Rings films, The Aviator was a big scorer.

Let's look at the pointless answers. There's six of them.

Elizabeth: The Golden Age, the follow-up to Elizabeth.

She was nominated for an Oscar for both. Heaven, Police Rescue, her feature film debut,

an Australian film many years ago. Not that many years ago.

Story of Lost Souls, with Keira Knightley. Wes Anderson's The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou,

and The Man Who Cried, a film she made with Johnny Depp. Very well done if you got those.

-Thanks. Did you know any of those?

-Never heard of any of them.

-One, but I'd never have guessed Elizabeth.

We say never go for films. Not in the end round. Never ends well.

Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to you, but it's been brilliant. Thank you for playing.

So Becky and Gareth didn't win our jackpot, so it rolls over and we will be playing for £3,250.

-Join us then. Meanwhile, goodbye from Richard.

-Goodbye.

-And goodbye from me. Goodbye.
