0:00:19 > 0:00:23CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong, and welcome to Pointless.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29The aim of the game is to score as few points as you can.
0:00:29 > 0:00:33To do that, you need the answers that no-one else could think of.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36- Let's meet today's players. - APPLAUSE
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Couple number one.
0:00:39 > 0:00:43I'm Simon. This is Emma. We're friends from work and we're from Leicester.
0:00:43 > 0:00:48- Couple number two.- I'm Paul. This is my wife, Nicki. We're from Chandler's Ford in Hampshire.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52- Couple number three.- My name's Matthew. I'm from Manchester.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55This is my mum, Lynda. She's from Chorley.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58- And couple number four. - My name's Hugh. I work in IT.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01This is my brother-in-law James, who is a professional gambler.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04We're both from Glasgow.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07These, ladies and gentlemen, are today's contestants.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12We'll be finding out more about you throughout the show.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14There's only one person left to introduce.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18His Latin name is Factius obscurius.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- He's my Pointless friend, Richard. - Hiya.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Hi, everyone.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29- Did you just hear what I heard? - A cheer?
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- No, before that. - The words "professional gambler".
0:01:32 > 0:01:35- Yeah!- Yeah. - I wish they weren't on podium four.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39It's going to take you ages to get to James and talk to him.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42- We could always talk to him now. - No, no.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45- No, let's save it.- OK.- What sort of gambler do you think he is?
0:01:47 > 0:01:52I think he does a bit of everything. I think he plays the Pools.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54- LAUGHTER - Horses.- Lottery.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57- "I'm a professional Lottery player!" - A scratch-carder.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01- "I'm a EuroMillions professional." - That's the one.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04- Anyway, in terms of the show... - Yeah.- You're gonna love round one.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07- Am I?- Yeah, you are. - I LOVE round one.
0:02:07 > 0:02:12I'm going to like it cos we'll find out a little bit more about being a professional gambler.
0:02:12 > 0:02:17Now, all of our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:17 > 0:02:21Our contestants need to find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Everyone's looking for a pointless answer, which none of our 100 people gave.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Each time, we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Neil and Scott didn't win the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35Today's jackpot starts off at...
0:02:38 > 0:02:41If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50In this round, I'll take an answer from each of you and there's no conferring.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54Whichever pair has the highest score will be eliminated, so make sure that's not you.
0:02:54 > 0:02:59Our first category today is...
0:02:59 > 0:03:03Can you decide in your pairs who's going first and who's going second?
0:03:03 > 0:03:06And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Let's find out what the question is.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many
0:03:13 > 0:03:17words ending in "..ear" as they could.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19"..ear". Richard.
0:03:19 > 0:03:24We're looking for any word with its own entry in the Oxford Dictionary of English that ends "..ear".
0:03:24 > 0:03:28As always, no proper nouns or hyphenated words.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30We won't accept the word "ear" itself.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34- Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Simon, welcome to the show.- Hello.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- What do you do, Simon?- I'm a PhD student.- What's your discipline?
0:03:38 > 0:03:42- Physics.- Which aspect of physics? - Planetary science. I look at Mercury.
0:03:42 > 0:03:48- Wow!- As in the planet. - Specifically Mercury?- Yes, indeed. - What drew you to Mercury?
0:03:48 > 0:03:54The university has a stake in the spacecraft that's going there in five years or so.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- So, er...- I can see what drew you to Mercury. That's fantastic!
0:03:57 > 0:04:02- Where's it going to leave from? - I think Kourou in French Guiana.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06I thought you were going to say somewhere in the Lake District! That'd be fun!
0:04:06 > 0:04:09- Isn't Kourou south of Manchester? - Yeah. It's a lovely spot.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Yeah, near Nantwich.- Lovely spot. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. Very good.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17- How long does it take to get to Mercury?- About six years.- Wow!
0:04:17 > 0:04:21- So, 11 years from now... - Thereabouts.- I can do maths!
0:04:21 > 0:04:26- ..we'll be getting some exciting data back from Mercury.- We hope so.
0:04:26 > 0:04:27Wow!
0:04:27 > 0:04:32- Now, Simon.- Yes. - All this is well and good.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35- But do any of these words end in "..ear"?- OK.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38I've got one very dodgy one.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41I'm hoping there's a singular as well as a plural.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44I'm going to say "arrear", as in "arrears".
0:04:45 > 0:04:48"Arrea". "Arrea", says Simon. Let's see if that's right.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51If it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55- Oh!- Oh, no!
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Bad luck, Simon. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02- That scores you the maximum of 100 points. I'm sorry.- Oh, well.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05- Richard.- Quite a good logical physics brain.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08It's only there as a plural, I'm afraid - "arrears".
0:05:08 > 0:05:11You cannot be "in arrea".
0:05:11 > 0:05:15- Hm. Now then, Paul. Welcome to the show.- Thank you.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- Paul, what do you do? - I'm a design engineer.
0:05:18 > 0:05:24- What particular sort of things do you design?- Equipment for divers to use underwater.- Oh, fun!
0:05:24 > 0:05:26- Do you have an interest in diving? - No.- Really?
0:05:26 > 0:05:28LAUGHTER No.
0:05:28 > 0:05:34- What do you like to get up to if you're NOT diving? - I like to play snooker and squash.
0:05:34 > 0:05:39- Go on long walks.- Do you do proper, proper long, long walks?
0:05:39 > 0:05:42No. We just walk to pubs, really. LAUGHTER
0:05:42 > 0:05:44That's MY kind of walk!
0:05:44 > 0:05:46OK, Paul, words ending in "..ear".
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Right, um...
0:05:48 > 0:05:51I'm going to say "bugbear".
0:05:51 > 0:05:53- APPRECIATIVELY:- "Bugbear".
0:05:53 > 0:05:56- Oh, he's good, Paul.- Yeah. - LAUGHTER
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Let's see if it's right and how many of our 100 people said "bugbear".
0:06:02 > 0:06:03It's right.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Very well done indeed, Paul.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13That's exactly how you play this round.
0:06:13 > 0:06:17"Bugbear" is a pointless answer. It adds 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Taking the total up to £2,500.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21It scores you nothing.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25Excellent start to the game. Very well done. Richard.
0:06:25 > 0:06:31Welcome to Pointless, Paul. Cause of obsessive fear, anxiety or irritation - bugbear.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34- Lynda.- Hello.- Welcome back. Tell us what happened last time.
0:06:34 > 0:06:38- Well, we got Olympic sports.- Mm-hm.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42We got two answers, but I'm afraid they weren't low enough.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- You were for the high jump! - We were for the high jump, yes!
0:06:45 > 0:06:49- High jump scored VERY high! 55 for high jump?- I know.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51We'll put all that behind us.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55We're looking for words ending in "..ear". What are you thinking?
0:06:55 > 0:06:58I'm going to go for..."linear".
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Oh, very good!
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Lynda's gone "linear". Let's see if that's right.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07And let's see how many of our 100 people said "linear".
0:07:07 > 0:07:09Absolutely right.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24- Five for "linear". - Another VERY good answer.
0:07:24 > 0:07:30"Linear", meaning in a straight line or consisting of only one dimension or lots of straight lines.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33- Linear.- Linear, thank you. - Yeah, linear.- That's good. Linear.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37Hugh, welcome to the show. Great to have you here.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40I can't ask James yet. Have to do it on the way back.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44- Hugh's an IT consultant. You could ask about that.- Watch.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47- What do you do, Hugh?- I work in IT.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51- Tell us about that. That's fascinating(!)- Fascinating.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Yes. How does that work?
0:07:53 > 0:07:57- I break computers. - You fix computers.- I break them.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01- Really?- I test them and break them. - The way people break horses?- Yeah.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- You tame them. - Yes. I'm a computer whisperer.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06- LAUGHTER - Ah! Very good.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- What do you get up to in your spare time, Hugh?- I collect ties.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13- But chose not to wear one for us! - LAUGHTER
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Yeah, go figure!
0:08:16 > 0:08:20- Yeah, go figure.- Yeah.- Couldn't find one that worked with this shirt.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25- I'm not going to argue with that. - LAUGHTER
0:08:25 > 0:08:29Anyway, Hugh, we're wanting a word ending in "..ear".
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Um..."underwear".
0:08:31 > 0:08:36"Under..." Could you say that with less of a smile on your lips?
0:08:36 > 0:08:39"Underwear", says Hugh. "Underwear".
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Let's see how many of our 100 people said "underwear".
0:08:43 > 0:08:45It's right.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59Very well done indeed, Hugh. Two for "underwear".
0:08:59 > 0:09:01- You know what underwear is?- Yeah.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05I know you don't wear it, but you know what it is, right?
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Thanks very much, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Let's take a look at the scores, as they stand.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Paul and Nicki looking extremely strong
0:09:13 > 0:09:16after that excellent answer of Paul's.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Then up to two, when we find Hugh and James.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Up to five, where we find Lynda and Matt.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Then up to 100, where we find Simon and Emma.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27Let's have a nice low-scoring answer from you in the next pass. I think a pointless!
0:09:27 > 0:09:30- That's all I'm saying. - No pressure, then(!)
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Masses of pressure. A pointless answer, please.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:09:39 > 0:09:43We're looking for words ending in "..ear".
0:09:43 > 0:09:46James! What kind of gambling do you specialise in?
0:09:46 > 0:09:51- Mainly horse racing.- Presumably, it's a very disciplined approach?
0:09:51 > 0:09:56- Lots and lots of studying.- What's the most you've made on one bet?
0:09:57 > 0:10:01I think my favourite ever bet is... I won £15,000 for a £100 stake.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04On the jackpot once. That was my favourite.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07Yeah, I think that'd be my favourite, too!
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Don't know if it's the biggest, but that's my favourite.
0:10:10 > 0:10:15OK, very good. I'm now going to ask you for a word ending in "..ear".
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Just, I mean... Let's try and get a pointless answer.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Well, um...
0:10:20 > 0:10:25Going along the same lines as Hugh, I'm going to try "swimwear".
0:10:25 > 0:10:30"Swimwear" says James. The high-scorers on 100 are Emma and Simon.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34You're on two. A score of 97 or less will see you through to the next round.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37"Swimwear". How many people said "swimwear"?
0:10:39 > 0:10:41You're through to the next round.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Oh! Very well done indeed!
0:10:48 > 0:10:53That's what I asked for. That's what I got - a pointless answer.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57It adds £250 to today's jackpot, taking the total up to £2,750.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00It scores you nothing and it leaves your total at two.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04- Very well done indeed, James. - Brilliant. Two debutants both getting pointless answers.
0:11:04 > 0:11:10- James and Hugh have done very well. We might have to close down your account.- Please don't!
0:11:10 > 0:11:15Thanks very much. Now, then, Matt. Matt. Remind us what you do, Matt.
0:11:15 > 0:11:20I work with, not only children, but adults with disabilities.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- Varying all kinds.- That's right.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25In both the domestic and sporting capacity.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29Do you have any interesting hobbies or areas of expertise, Matt?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32I like watching films, a lot of films.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36OK, very good. And how about a word ending in "..ear"?
0:11:37 > 0:11:40I'm going to go with..."Tupperware".
0:11:40 > 0:11:43- SURPRISED:- "Tupperware", says Matt.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46"Tupperware". The high-scorers are Emma and Simon.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49You're on five. They're on 100.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53If you can score 94 or less, you are through to the next round.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57Let's see if "Tupperware" is right and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Ooh, bad luck, Matt! I'm really sorry. That's an incorrect answer.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05You score the maximum of 100 points.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08You've thrown a massive lifeline there to Emma.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11That takes your total up to 105. I'm really sorry.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15Sorry, Matt. Firstly, it's a brand. Secondly, it ends "..are".
0:12:15 > 0:12:18- Rather than "..ear". - Nicki, Nicki.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22I've got fabulous news for you. Round two awaits.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25- It has your name written on it. - I'm so pleased!
0:12:25 > 0:12:28You'll never overtake the high score of Matt and Lynda.
0:12:28 > 0:12:33- Paul did brilliantly well there, a lovely low score.- He did.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36Shall we try and make it a double pointless?
0:12:36 > 0:12:40Well, I will go for what I consider to be a risky one,
0:12:40 > 0:12:42seeing as we're safe.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45I'm going to say "overbear".
0:12:45 > 0:12:47"Overbear". "Overbear" says Nicki.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Let's see if "overbear" is right and how many people said it.
0:12:53 > 0:12:54It's right.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Let's see if it's going to go all the way down.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04Yes, it has done! Very well done! A double pointless, Nicki!
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Your pointless also adds £250 to today's jackpot.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Takes the total up to £3,000.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13It scores you nothing and it leaves your total at nothing.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17- Very well done indeed. - How about that from Nicki and Paul?
0:13:17 > 0:13:20That's now three debutants and three pointless answers.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22You've both gone with "bear" words.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27- "Overbear" is, in any group of bears, the biggest one - the overbear.- Yeah.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Thank you very much. Now then, Emma.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32Ooh, this is exciting.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- Terrible!- We need to score four or less from you.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39- Emma, what do you do?- I'm also doing a PhD, but in biophysics.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42- You're not working on the Mercury trip?- No.
0:13:42 > 0:13:47I'm looking at how certain chemicals interact with cell membranes.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51- It's not as exciting as it sounds! - No, it is! I bet!
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Now then, Emma. This is very close now.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Matt and Lynda on 105. You're on 100.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59You have to score four or less.
0:13:59 > 0:14:03I seem to have forgotten all the words I know!
0:14:03 > 0:14:06I'm going to risk "teddy bear".
0:14:06 > 0:14:12It might be hyphenated, I'm not sure. It might be separate words, but "teddy bear".
0:14:12 > 0:14:13OK, "teddy bear".
0:14:13 > 0:14:16"Teddy bear", is it right? How many people said it?
0:14:18 > 0:14:23Oooh, Emma! I'm so sorry. You scored the maximum of 100 points.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25That takes your total up to 200. Richard.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28So, you're a biophysicist.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31- With a physicist.- Yeah!
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Neither of you thought to say "nuclear"?
0:14:34 > 0:14:36- Oh, yeah! That's a word!- Oh!
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Four points. Would have seen you through.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43Pointless answers - "thermonuclear", "mononuclear", "supranuclear",
0:14:43 > 0:14:47"internuclear", "subnuclear", "perinuclear".
0:14:47 > 0:14:49AUDIENCE GROANS
0:14:49 > 0:14:52- And, of course, "polymorphonuclear". - Well, of course!
0:14:52 > 0:14:55All of those would have been pointless answers.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57"Teddy bear" is two words, I'm afraid.
0:14:57 > 0:15:02Let's take a look at some pointless answers. Some familiar words.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Particularly the first one...
0:15:06 > 0:15:09..As was "nightwear", "leisurewear", "loungewear"...
0:15:17 > 0:15:19.."Thermonuclear", pointless answer.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21If there's, say, a biophysicist out there,
0:15:21 > 0:15:24you would probably have got that, I think.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28"Workwear" and "yesteryear", which is rather a nice one.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30Very well done if you got any of those at home.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Thanks very much indeed.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36At the end of our first round, our losing pair with a ridiculously high score!
0:15:36 > 0:15:39- Really very high. - I don't think it could be higher.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41We'll see you again next time.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Emma, Simon, great to have you on the show.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46APPLAUSE
0:15:46 > 0:15:49For the remaining three pairs, it's time for round two.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Obviously, there's only room for two pairs in our head-to-head round,
0:15:58 > 0:16:01so one of the pairs will be leaving at the end of this round.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Nicki and Paul, I have to say,
0:16:03 > 0:16:07after that performance, it looks like it's not going to be you.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Don't say that. Don't jinx us!
0:16:09 > 0:16:13I don't know, but Hugh and James did very, very well there.
0:16:13 > 0:16:20- What do you think the odds are that you make it to the final? - Making it to the final - 2/1 on.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23- 2/1 on.- Yeah.- Well, best of luck to all three pairs.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Our category for round two is...
0:16:27 > 0:16:31Can you decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second?
0:16:31 > 0:16:34And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39And the question concerns...
0:16:42 > 0:16:47- Richard.- We're going to give you six islands on each pass, all governed by another country.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51Tell us which countries govern the islands you're about to see.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55Give us a nice obscure answer, you'll score fewer points. An incorrect answer will score 100.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59As always, by country, we mean a sovereign state that is a member of the UN in its own right.
0:16:59 > 0:17:0212 islands in all to guess at home. Good luck.
0:17:02 > 0:17:08We're looking for the countries to which these islands belong or are affiliated, and here they are...
0:17:16 > 0:17:18..I'll read those all one last time...
0:17:24 > 0:17:27There we are - six non-sovereign islands.
0:17:27 > 0:17:35- Paul?- I think I'm going to say Corsica is owned by France.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Corsica, France, says Paul.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said France for Corsica.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Very good. That's right.
0:17:51 > 0:17:5440 for France.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Closer to Italy than France, but governed from France.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Lynda. So, Corsica's gone.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04- Mm-hm. - That leaves five other islands.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08You, then, to name the country to which they belong or are affiliated.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11I've got an idea about Newfoundland Island,
0:18:11 > 0:18:14but I don't know whether to risk it.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18So I'm going to go safe and go for Crete and Greece.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22Crete, Greece. Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26It is right.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Another pretty big score but much better than 100.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40The largest of the Greek islands. 160 miles long.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44Now then, James, you're the last person to have this board.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47- You can take us through it. - I wish very much that I could.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50There is one that I can have a guess at
0:18:50 > 0:18:54and there are three that I can't, so my mind is made up.
0:18:54 > 0:18:59I sincerely hope that Newfoundland Island is governed by Canada.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02James is saying Canada for Newfoundland Island.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Let's see if that's right and how many people said Canada.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11It's right. 40 is our lowest score.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Not bad.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Not bad at all. Richard.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Newfoundland off the east coast of Canada.
0:19:21 > 0:19:29The capital of Newfoundland, St John's, is closer to Ireland than it is to Winnipeg in Canada.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31- Really?- Yeah.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- That's a big country, Canada. - That IS a big country!
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Let's go through the rest of this board.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38You've picked off the simpler ones...
0:19:47 > 0:19:51- ..Do you know what they need in Krk? - Vowels.- Vowels. Yes.- No kidding.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55Four points, that would have scored. And the Bouvet Island?
0:19:55 > 0:19:57It's a one-pointer. It belongs to Norway.
0:19:57 > 0:20:02I expect you wouldn't have got it unless you'd been there. If you did, well done.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06Thank you very much indeed. We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.
0:20:06 > 0:20:0940, the best score of the pass, Paul.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Paul and Nicki, once again looking pretty strong.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Up to 43, where we find James and Hugh.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Then up to 62, where Lynda and Matt are.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20So, Matt, we need some good answering from you in the next pass.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:20:26 > 0:20:30We're going to put six more islands on the board and here they are...
0:20:37 > 0:20:39..I'll read those once more...
0:20:45 > 0:20:50..We are looking for the country to which these islands belong or are affiliated.
0:20:50 > 0:20:56Now, Hugh, you're three points ahead of our low-scorers,
0:20:56 > 0:21:00and you are 18 points behind our high-scorers.
0:21:00 > 0:21:05So a score of 18 or less will avoid you becoming our new high-scorers.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08What do you make of that board?
0:21:08 > 0:21:11I think I know some of them, but I don't think I know anything
0:21:11 > 0:21:16that's going to score low enough to get straight through.
0:21:17 > 0:21:23So what I'll do is I'll go for Madeira Island and say Portugal.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Madeira, Portugal, says Hugh. Madeira, Portugal.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28There is your red line.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Below that, you are straight through to the next round.
0:21:31 > 0:21:34Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Absolutely right.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Not bad at all. Our lowest score so far.
0:21:45 > 0:21:49- It takes your total up to 78. - Good answer, Hugh.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52- It's in the North Atlantic, Madeira. - Now then, Matt.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54- Yeah.- Now then, Matt.
0:21:54 > 0:21:5778 is the high score. You're on 62.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00A score of 15 or less will keep you in the game.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03I'm going to have to take a gamble.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07So, I'm going to go Stewart Island...
0:22:07 > 0:22:09and Scotland.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Stewart Island, Scotland, says Matt.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14- Going to have to. - Here's your red line.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said Scotland.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Bad luck, Matt. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26It scores you the maximum of 100 points.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Takes your total up to 162. Richard.
0:22:29 > 0:22:33Did what you had to do. Perfectly reasonable guess for Stewart Island.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36I'll give the correct answer at the end of the pass.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39And finally, Nicki, it's you.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41I'm going to have to take a punt as well.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44I'm going for Stewart Island as well.
0:22:44 > 0:22:49Something is leading me towards... New Zealand?
0:22:49 > 0:22:53- For that.- So let's see. Stewart Island, New Zealand.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Is it right? How many people said it?
0:22:57 > 0:22:59It's right!
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Very well done, Nicki!
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Superb!
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Paul and Nicki's supremacy confirmed by that lovely total of 48.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15Nicki's pretty good, isn't she? Two very good rounds.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19New Zealand's third largest island, off the North and South Islands.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22Let's look at the rest of the answers. Sardinia?
0:23:22 > 0:23:24- Italy.- Absolutely right.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Now...
0:23:28 > 0:23:30- Kangaroo Island!- Kangaroo Island.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34- James, you're a gambling man. - JAMES CHUCKLES
0:23:34 > 0:23:38We know what it sounds like, but is that a bluff or not?
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Think that's Australia or not Australia?
0:23:42 > 0:23:44I would say probably not.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48- Oh! You've just lost £40,000! - LAUGHTER
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Oh, yeah. It's Australia, I'm afraid.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55Inishmore, I'm sure loads of people know is the Republic of Ireland.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- And Marion Island? - It's South Africa, I think.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01It IS South Africa, yeah.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05Well done to anyone who got all of those. Very impressive.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10At the end of round two, the losing pair with the high score of 162...
0:24:10 > 0:24:14Oh! Matt and Lynda, I'm afraid this time it is goodbye.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17- I know.- Never mind. It's been lovely having you on the show.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21- I'm sorry we have to say goodbye. - Lovely being here. - Brilliant contestants.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23APPLAUSE
0:24:23 > 0:24:27But the two remaining pairs get one step closer to the final
0:24:27 > 0:24:30and the chance of taking home our jackpot, as we enter the head-to-head.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37Congratulations, Nicki and Paul, Hugh and James,
0:24:37 > 0:24:41you are only one round away from the final and a chance to play for the jackpot,
0:24:41 > 0:24:43which currently stands at £3,000.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45AUDIENCE: Ooooh!
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Clearly, only one pair can play for that money.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54You're now going to go head to head. This time, you're allowed to confer.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58And the first player to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01- Let's play the head-to-head. - APPLAUSE
0:25:05 > 0:25:09Here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Members of Michael Jackson's family. Richard.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17We'll show you five pictures of relatives of Michael Jackson.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20- Can you name the most obscure? - Thanks, Richard.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24Let's reveal our five members of Michael Jackson's family...
0:25:42 > 0:25:45Five members of Michael Jackson's family.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49Nicki and Paul, you played best throughout the show so far, so you go first.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51THEY WHISPER
0:25:57 > 0:26:02OK, I think we're going to go for C, Latoya.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04C, Latoya.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07C, Latoya, say Nicki and Paul.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10Hugh and James, the board is yours.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13- Hm!- I think that's his mother. I don't know her name.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17I don't think we'll get Mother Jackson as allowed.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19D is Janet. E is Jermaine.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22- Could B be Tito? - I think it might be Tito.
0:26:22 > 0:26:26Do we go for Jermaine, hoping it's less than Latoya?
0:26:26 > 0:26:29Or do we go for Tito, which might be wrong,
0:26:29 > 0:26:32but would almost certainly be less than Latoya?
0:26:32 > 0:26:34- I think we go for the gamble.- OK.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36B, Tito.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38- B, Tito. I could listen to James's voice.- Mm.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41Very good, isn't it?
0:26:42 > 0:26:46Anyway, sorry. B, Tito, say Hugh and James.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50Nicki and Paul went with Latoya. Hugh and James have gone with Tito.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53Latoya, let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people said it.
0:26:55 > 0:26:56It's right.
0:27:01 > 0:27:0436 for Latoya.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09Hugh and James have said that B is Tito. B, Tito.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13Let's see if it's right. If it is, let's see how many of our 100 said B was Tito.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Ooh! Not Tito, as it turns out.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Which means, after one question, Nicki and Paul, you're up one-nil.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27You really did lose the gamble, cos Jermaine Jackson would have won you the point.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31B is a pointless answer.
0:27:31 > 0:27:35It's the eldest brother of the Jackson family...
0:27:37 > 0:27:39Well done if you said that at home.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42A is the mother, as you rightly say...
0:27:51 > 0:27:55..Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Here comes your second question.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Hugh and James, you need to win this to stay in the game.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00It concerns...
0:28:03 > 0:28:09- Richard.- We're going to show you the names of five dances that have been performed at one time or another.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12We're only giving you the first and last letters of each word.
0:28:12 > 0:28:16- Can you find the most obscure? Good luck. - Thanks very much, Richard.
0:28:16 > 0:28:20Let's reveal our five dances performed on Strictly Come Dancing. We have got...
0:28:39 > 0:28:42..I'll read those again, you will be delighted to hear, without the blanks...
0:28:55 > 0:28:58..Five dances performed on Strictly Come Dancing.
0:28:58 > 0:29:02Hugh and James, you go first this time.
0:29:02 > 0:29:04Know some of them.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06Not all of them.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09Got to work out what's the lowest.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12But we'll go for...
0:29:12 > 0:29:16- Lindy Hop, the top one. - You're going for Lindy Hop.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18Lindy Hop say Hugh and James.
0:29:18 > 0:29:23Nicki and Paul, if you can, try and fill in all the blanks on the board.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27I think he's leaving this to me!
0:29:27 > 0:29:29I don't know the second one.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32The third one, I think, is Waltz.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34The fourth one is Paso Doble.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37And I can't think of the bottom one.
0:29:37 > 0:29:42So, I would say Paso Doble. Yeah, Paso Doble.
0:29:42 > 0:29:46You're going with Paso Doble. So we have Lindy Hop and Paso Doble.
0:29:46 > 0:29:52Hugh and James said Lindy Hop. Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 said Lindy Hop.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55Absolutely right.
0:29:58 > 0:30:01APPLAUSE
0:30:05 > 0:30:09Nicki and Paul have said Paso Doble. Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said that.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13It's right.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15Is it going to be beat 30?
0:30:16 > 0:30:18Ooh! Not quite!
0:30:18 > 0:30:23- APPLAUSE - Hugh and James back in the game.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27- After two questions, it's one-all. - That was close, wasn't it?
0:30:27 > 0:30:29B is Quickstep.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32Wouldn't have won the point, though.
0:30:32 > 0:30:36- C is Viennese Waltz.- You know when I read that out with the blanks?
0:30:36 > 0:30:39Unwittingly, it was in 3/4 time.
0:30:39 > 0:30:42- Yeah, it was terrific. We all spotted that(!)- Good.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44It's a big scorer, though.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47Some steps of Viennese Waltz are in the bottom one,
0:30:47 > 0:30:53which is the best answer up there, would have won the point.
0:30:53 > 0:30:58OK, here comes your third question, the decider, and it concerns...
0:31:03 > 0:31:07Giving the brain cells a bit of a stretch from Strictly to the restoration of Charles II.
0:31:07 > 0:31:11We're going to give you five clues to facts about the life and times of Charles II.
0:31:11 > 0:31:16Can you find the most obscure? Whichever team does is going through to the final.
0:31:16 > 0:31:22Let's reveal our five clues to facts about the life and times of Charles II, and here they are...
0:31:38 > 0:31:40..I'll read those one last time...
0:31:54 > 0:31:58..There we are, five clues to facts about Charles II.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00Nicki and Paul, you go first.
0:32:00 > 0:32:05I'm very happy to see history. VERY happy.
0:32:05 > 0:32:10I think the year he was restored to the throne was 1660.
0:32:10 > 0:32:131660, say Nicki and Paul.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16Hugh and James, the board is yours.
0:32:17 > 0:32:21- Hm! The Lord Protector is obviously Cromwell.- Cromwell.
0:32:21 > 0:32:23I'm guessing that his mistress is Nell Gwyn.
0:32:23 > 0:32:27The first name of Charles' brother who succeeded him is James.
0:32:27 > 0:32:33Country he initially escaped to... Ooh! It's either France or Holland.
0:32:33 > 0:32:38Unfortunately, I can't remember what I was doing in October 1651.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40LAUGHTER
0:32:42 > 0:32:45Think I'll go for James. That one, yeah?
0:32:45 > 0:32:48First name of Charles' brother who succeeded him was James.
0:32:48 > 0:32:52You're going to say James was Charles' brother. James.
0:32:52 > 0:32:57Nicki and Paul have gone for 1660. Let's see if that's right as the date of his restoration.
0:32:57 > 0:33:00If it is, let's see how many people said it, 1660.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04Absolutely right.
0:33:08 > 0:33:11Ooh! Very well done indeed, Nicki and Paul.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13Five.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Hugh and James have said that James
0:33:19 > 0:33:22is the name of Charles' brother who succeeded him.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many of our 100 said James.
0:33:26 > 0:33:28It's absolutely right.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30Is it going to beat five?
0:33:33 > 0:33:37- Ooh! 11! - APPLAUSE
0:33:39 > 0:33:41Very well done, both pairs.
0:33:41 > 0:33:46Two brilliant answers there, but Nicki and Paul, you pipped them with 1660.
0:33:46 > 0:33:49After three questions, you are through to the final, two-one.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51What a terrific head-to-head.
0:33:51 > 0:33:55Only one answer would have beaten it and that's Charles' mistress
0:33:55 > 0:33:58and mother of Duke of Monmouth, and it's not Nell Gwyn.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01It's Lucy Walter and it was a pointless answer.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03Very well done to anybody who said that.
0:34:03 > 0:34:07The country Charles escaped to. You would have gone with France.
0:34:07 > 0:34:10You'd have been right.
0:34:10 > 0:34:15And Cromwell was the Lord Protector, but that was the highest score.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17Thanks very much indeed.
0:34:17 > 0:34:21At the end of our head-to-head, our losing pair, I'm afraid, is Hugh and James.
0:34:21 > 0:34:24That was a brilliantly close head-to-head.
0:34:24 > 0:34:28The good news for us is, Hugh and James, we see you next time.
0:34:28 > 0:34:32We'll look forward to that very much. Hugh and James.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34APPLAUSE
0:34:34 > 0:34:37But for Nicki and Paul, it's time for our Pointless final.
0:34:41 > 0:34:44Congratulations, Nicki and Paul, you fought off all the competition
0:34:44 > 0:34:47and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:34:56 > 0:35:00At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £3,000.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02AUDIENCE: Ooooh!
0:35:03 > 0:35:06You have made a major contribution to that jackpot
0:35:06 > 0:35:09by turning up and your first two answers were pointless.
0:35:09 > 0:35:14- What would you like to see come up this round? - '70s and '80s rock music.
0:35:14 > 0:35:19Music would be good, cos I can take '80s onwards, and Paul's OK...
0:35:19 > 0:35:22- ..with the older stuff, you were going to say!- Yeah.
0:35:22 > 0:35:25- Music would be good. - The rules are very simple.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28To win the money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30Do that and you'll leave here with £3,000.
0:35:30 > 0:35:34First, you choose a category. Here are your five options...
0:35:43 > 0:35:46- SHE LAUGHS - Everything you wanted, isn't it(?)
0:35:46 > 0:35:50- Oh, my goodness!- Latin America. - Yeah, I guess.
0:35:50 > 0:35:55We know nothing about boxing. I think you've stumped us!
0:35:55 > 0:35:58Don't read detective fiction. Don't know hip-hop.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01Don't know MPs. Got to be Latin America, hasn't it?
0:36:01 > 0:36:05- Latin America.- Yeah. - Latin America it is. Best of luck.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07Let's find out what the question is.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:36:10 > 0:36:13states of Mexico as they could.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15States of Mexico. Richard.
0:36:15 > 0:36:20We're looking for any of the 31 federal states that make up the country of Mexico.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23We won't accept the Federal District of Mexico City.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26Any of the 31 federal states that make up Mexico. Very best of luck.
0:36:26 > 0:36:30OK, you now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:30 > 0:36:35All you need to win that jackpot of £3,000 is for just one of those to be pointless.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38- Are you ready? - LAUGHING:- Yeah!
0:36:38 > 0:36:42You are raring to go(!) Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:36:42 > 0:36:44Your time starts now.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47- What about...- Tijuana? - That's what I was going to say.- OK.
0:36:49 > 0:36:53- I don't know any. - What's the...? Um...
0:36:55 > 0:36:59- Where's the holiday destination that people go to?- Oh!
0:36:59 > 0:37:02- Gosh! Where our friends went to? - Yeah.- Um...
0:37:02 > 0:37:04Oh!
0:37:04 > 0:37:06I don't know! Um...
0:37:06 > 0:37:09- I haven't got anything.- No.
0:37:10 > 0:37:11Um...
0:37:11 > 0:37:14Gosh, this is hard.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17- Never been there. - Never been to Mexico.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19- What about Baja?- Baja?
0:37:19 > 0:37:22Baja. B-A-G-A. B-A-J-A.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24Go with it. We've got nothing else.
0:37:24 > 0:37:29- Or is Baja California?- Go for it. We haven't got anything else.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31- Need one more.- Make one up.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36Ten seconds left.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39I can't remember the name of that holiday place.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42Um... OK.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48OK, time is up. We were looking for the states of Mexico.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50I now need your three answers.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52- Baja California.- Baja California.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54- Tijuana.- Tijuana.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Anything Mexican. Fajita!
0:37:58 > 0:38:00- Fajita! Yeah!- Fajita! - LAUGHTER
0:38:04 > 0:38:09- Of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?- Tijuana.
0:38:09 > 0:38:13- We'll put that last. What do you think is your least likely?- Fajita, maybe!
0:38:13 > 0:38:17Fajita. Very good. Let's pop those up on the board in that order...
0:38:22 > 0:38:25We're looking for states of Mexico.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Fajita, strangely, was your least confident shot at...
0:38:27 > 0:38:32- Actually, what if that turns out to be a pointless answer and it's right?- Incredible.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34It could be.
0:38:34 > 0:38:37- Sandwich is a place. - LAUGHTER
0:38:40 > 0:38:43APPLAUSE
0:38:46 > 0:38:51OK, Fajita. Let us find out. This was your least confident answer.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54You only have to find one pointless answer to win that jackpot of £3,000.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57Did anyone say Fajita? Is it right?
0:38:59 > 0:39:01- Ah(!)- Bad luck.
0:39:01 > 0:39:05Bad luck. It turns out it is an incorrect answer.
0:39:05 > 0:39:09Unfortunately, not a pointless answer. You only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12£3,000. That's quite a decent jackpot.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14What would you do with that, Paul?
0:39:14 > 0:39:16Do a bit of travelling, I think.
0:39:16 > 0:39:20Perhaps go up to Scotland and have a look round Scotland.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23Or maybe to the states of Mexico, don't you think?
0:39:23 > 0:39:26- I think that'd be...- Visit Fajita!
0:39:26 > 0:39:29What about you, Nicki? Anything else you'd like to add?
0:39:29 > 0:39:33I would love to go to Venice. He can go to Scotland. I'll go to Venice.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36- LAUGHTER - Fair enough. Very best of luck.
0:39:36 > 0:39:41We're looking for the states of Mexico. Two pretty good answers on the board.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43Let's hope nobody said your next answer.
0:39:43 > 0:39:47This has to be correct, then it has to be pointless to win that jackpot.
0:39:47 > 0:39:51So, for £3,000, let's see how many people said Baja California.
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Absolutely right.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58Fajita turned out to be an incorrect answer.
0:39:58 > 0:40:02Baja California is taking us in the right direction...
0:40:05 > 0:40:08- There we are! - APPLAUSE
0:40:08 > 0:40:10This is good!
0:40:13 > 0:40:16Four. Was it a bit of a stab in the dark?
0:40:16 > 0:40:21Yeah, I've seen it on a map next to California, Baja California.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24Well, there we are. Only four people said it.
0:40:24 > 0:40:27Not a pointless answer, as it turns out, but a very good indication
0:40:27 > 0:40:31of how much our 100 people know about the states of Mexico.
0:40:31 > 0:40:34- And how much YOU know. - LAUGHTER
0:40:34 > 0:40:39I mean that in a good way! That was a very credible answer for this round.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42- Certainly after Fajita! - HE LAUGHS
0:40:42 > 0:40:46Anyway, you only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:40:46 > 0:40:50Everything is now riding on Tijuana.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52We were looking for the states of Mexico.
0:40:52 > 0:40:56If this is right and if it's pointless, you leave with £3,000.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59Let's see. Tijuana, how many people said it? Is it right?
0:41:01 > 0:41:04Ooh, no! Not a state, as it turns out.
0:41:04 > 0:41:07- APPLAUSE - Oh, bad luck.- Never mind.
0:41:09 > 0:41:13Of your three answers, one was very close indeed.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16Unfortunately, you didn't find that all-important pointless answer
0:41:16 > 0:41:18so you don't win today's jackpot of £3,000.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20That will roll over to the next show.
0:41:20 > 0:41:24You have been fabulous contestants, really brilliant performance today.
0:41:24 > 0:41:28- You do, of course, get to take home the Pointless trophy. Well done. - APPLAUSE
0:41:33 > 0:41:38We've had quite a few jackpot wins recently, but that was a particularly tough one.
0:41:38 > 0:41:42Tijuana is a city, the largest city in Baja California.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44So, a connection between the answers.
0:41:44 > 0:41:48No Fajita, I'm afraid, but let's take a look at some of the pointless answers...
0:41:52 > 0:41:56..Nuevo Leon, which is up on the border with the US...
0:41:58 > 0:42:02..It's got lots of silver mines, San Luis Potosi...
0:42:04 > 0:42:07..I'm pronouncing these terribly, I'm sure.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10- Ooh, blimey! - LAUGHTER
0:42:10 > 0:42:12Tlaxcala would have been a pointless answer.
0:42:12 > 0:42:14Zacatecas would also have been...
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Zacatecas! Would also have been a pointless answer.
0:42:17 > 0:42:19We should go for a Zacatecas, shouldn't we?
0:42:19 > 0:42:24Shame they didn't win. They could have "zack-de-cash" and gone home with it.
0:42:24 > 0:42:26AUDIENCE GROANS
0:42:26 > 0:42:28LAUGHTER
0:42:28 > 0:42:33Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye, Nicki and Paul. Thank you so much for playing.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35APPLAUSE
0:42:36 > 0:42:40Nicki and Paul didn't win our jackpot, which means it rolls over on to the next show,
0:42:40 > 0:42:42when we will be playing for £4,000.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44AUDIENCE: Oooh!
0:42:45 > 0:42:49- Join us then. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
