0:00:16 > 0:00:19APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Thank you very much. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong.

0:00:25 > 0:00:28Welcome to Pointless, the show where obvious answers mean nothing

0:00:28 > 0:00:32and obscure answers mean everything. Let's meet today's players.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39- Couple one.- Hi, I'm Lorraine and this is Carolyn.

0:00:39 > 0:00:41We're friends from university in Glasgow.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44- Couple two.- I'm Laurence. This is my brother, Danny.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47I'm from Bicester in Oxfordshire and Danny's from Rochester in Kent.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50- Couple three.- My name's Jamie. This is Tom, my partner.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52We're from King's Heath in Birmingham.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56- And couple four.- Hi, my name's Geoff. This is my daughter, Rebecca.

0:00:56 > 0:01:01I'm from Camberley, Surrey and she's from near Bristol.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04These, ladies and gentlemen, are today's contestants.

0:01:05 > 0:01:10Thanks very much. We'll find out more about you throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12Only one person left for me to introduce.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14He's our resident super-computer.

0:01:14 > 0:01:17So if he freezes, we just turn him off and turn him back on again.

0:01:17 > 0:01:19It's my pointless friend, Richard.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Hiya! Hi, everybody.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28A great show last time. A terrific head-to-head.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32And a terrific jackpot round. They walked away with the money, very deservedly.

0:01:32 > 0:01:37- It was good stuff.- Yeah. - Geoff and Rebecca were so good in that head-to-head.- Yes.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40I suspect they'll do well again today, though for substantially less money.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42But it's the winning that counts, right?

0:01:42 > 0:01:45- Of course.- Thank you very much, Richard.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48All our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.

0:01:48 > 0:01:52Our contestants need to find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56Everyone's looking to find a pointless answer which none of our 100 people gave.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59Each time that happens, we'll add 250 quid to the jackpot.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02As Richard said, Charlie and Johnny won the jackpot last time,

0:02:02 > 0:02:05so today's jackpot starts off at £1,000. Right,

0:02:05 > 0:02:07if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:12 > 0:02:17OK. In this first round, I'll take an answer from each of you but there's no conferring.

0:02:17 > 0:02:21The pair with the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23OK. Our category today for Round One is...

0:02:25 > 0:02:29Football. Can you decide in your pairs who's going first and who's going second.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39OK. And the question concerns...

0:02:43 > 0:02:47Managers during Sir Alex Ferguson's tenure at Manchester United.

0:02:47 > 0:02:52- Richard?- Sir Alex Ferguson's been Manchester United manager since November 1986.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55In a moment, we'll show you the names of four other football teams.

0:02:55 > 0:03:00You need to tell us anyone who's managed any of those teams during that time.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02Anyone who's managed any of the teams you're about to see

0:03:02 > 0:03:06between November 1986 and the beginning of September 2012, please.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09During the time that Sir Alex has been manager of Man Utd,

0:03:09 > 0:03:13these four teams have had nearly 50 managers between them.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16OK. Thank you very much indeed.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20So, as Richard has just said, I'll put the names of four teams on the board. Here they are.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29They will remain on the board throughout the whole round.

0:03:29 > 0:03:33We're looking for anybody who has managed any of those teams

0:03:33 > 0:03:36during Sir Alex Ferguson's tenure at Manchester United,

0:03:36 > 0:03:38so since November 1986.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41- Now, then. Welcome back Carolyn. - Hi, there.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Great to have you back on the show. What happened last time?

0:03:44 > 0:03:46We unfortunately went out in Round Two.

0:03:46 > 0:03:51We had a good score, but our fellow players were better than us that time.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54- You were on 29.- 29, yes.- 29.

0:03:54 > 0:03:58- It was a very low scoring... This was English-speaking nations. - It was indeed.

0:03:58 > 0:04:03Now, Carolyn, what do you like to get up to? What are your hobbies?

0:04:03 > 0:04:08- I enjoy tap dancing. I've been tap dancing for 25 years. - Really. You still do that?

0:04:08 > 0:04:11- I do, yes.- How regularly do you do that?- Once a week.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13- Keeps me fit.- Is that solo or part of a group?

0:04:13 > 0:04:17- Part of a group. A dancing class I've been going to for a very long time.- Very good.

0:04:17 > 0:04:21OK. Carolyn, have you got an answer?

0:04:21 > 0:04:25I do. I'm not great on football, I have to admit,

0:04:25 > 0:04:28but if I don't get one right, my husband wouldn't be too happy.

0:04:28 > 0:04:32So I'm going to go for Avram Grant

0:04:32 > 0:04:35who I believe did manage Chelsea at one point.

0:04:35 > 0:04:39OK. Avram Grant. Let's see if that's right and if it is,

0:04:39 > 0:04:42let's see how many of our 100 people said that. Avram Grant.

0:04:44 > 0:04:45Absolutely right.

0:04:51 > 0:04:52Five!

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Very, very good start to the game, Carolyn.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Five for Avram Grant.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02Well played. Good start. Avram Grant was Chelsea manager for eight months,

0:05:02 > 0:05:06making him the third longest manager in Chelsea's history!

0:05:10 > 0:05:15Thanks, Richard. Laurence. Welcome to Pointless. What do you do, Laurence?

0:05:15 > 0:05:18- I'm a personal fitness instructor. - How long have you done that?

0:05:18 > 0:05:23- Near on 15 years.- 15 years. Have you kept clients all the way through?

0:05:23 > 0:05:26All the way through. I do personal clients and group classes.

0:05:26 > 0:05:30Do you find January, February, March you have lots of new clients,

0:05:30 > 0:05:34- and then they tail off?- All the New Year's resolutions!- Yes.

0:05:34 > 0:05:35I've done that every year!

0:05:35 > 0:05:40- What are your hobbies, Laurence? - I like sports generally. Watching and taking part.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43My current hobby is my daughter. She's three months old.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45Congratulations.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Football, is that one of your hobbies?

0:05:47 > 0:05:53I watch football, but I don't pay as much attention as I probably should.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55OK. Do you support a team?

0:05:55 > 0:05:59I support Arsenal and I follow Fulham.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01Because that's where we're from.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03Right you are. OK.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Carolyn did very well there with Avram Grant.- She did!

0:06:06 > 0:06:11I'm also going to go to Chelsea, and I will choose Ruud Gullit.

0:06:11 > 0:06:17Ruud Gullit, says Laurence. Is it right, and if so, how many of our 100 people said it.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Absolutely right.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Five our best score so far.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28Oh, very well done!

0:06:28 > 0:06:30Down we go. A new low. Four.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37Well played, Laurence. He was player manager at Chelsea.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39The first overseas manager ever to win the FA Cup.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Now, then, Tom.

0:06:41 > 0:06:44A warm welcome to Pointless. Where are you from, Tom?

0:06:44 > 0:06:47- Birmingham.- And what do you do there?

0:06:47 > 0:06:49I'm a creature designer and maker, basically.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52I do film work and prosthetics and stuff.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55Oh, fantastic! A creature designer in film.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57So you work in latex, do you?

0:06:57 > 0:07:02Latex, anything I can find. Wire, bits around that I find. Junk and stuff.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04How amazing. How long have you done that for?

0:07:04 > 0:07:10Since I was a kid, when I had washing up bottles and bits of cardboard hanging around.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13Good stuff. So that's a dream job, really? Something you love doing.

0:07:13 > 0:07:19That's what I do in my own time as well as doing it part time in film and stuff.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22Brilliant. Good stuff. How about football?

0:07:22 > 0:07:26- Not great, to be honest! - OK.- Really quite bad.

0:07:26 > 0:07:30But I'd say probably - I don't think it'll be a good score,

0:07:30 > 0:07:34and I'm not even sure if it's the right football team -

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- but Arsenal, Arsene Wenger. - Arsene Wenger, says Tom.

0:07:37 > 0:07:41Let's see if it's right and how many of our 100 said Arsene Wenger.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Absolutely right.

0:07:47 > 0:07:4950.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54- A popular answer, Tom, but a correct answer. Arsene Wenger.- Absolutely.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57Much better than 100. Another very long-serving manager.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Now, then. Geoff.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03Welcome back to Pointless. You were on the show last time.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05As Richard said, you were through to the head-to-head

0:08:05 > 0:08:08and had a very, very tight head-to-head there.

0:08:08 > 0:08:10Unlucky not to get through to the final.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14Remind us what you do, Geoff, or what you did, I should say.

0:08:14 > 0:08:20What I did. I'm currently retired and intend staying retired for the rest of my life!

0:08:20 > 0:08:25Surprisingly! Prior to that, I worked in the gaming industry,

0:08:25 > 0:08:28setting up casinos in various parts of the world.

0:08:28 > 0:08:32What's your favourite way of spending time now, Geoff?

0:08:32 > 0:08:36I'm a regular tennis player. I play five or six times a week.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40That would suggest I'm quite good, but that would be totally wrong!

0:08:40 > 0:08:42I'm an enthusiastic amateur.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45Very good. Five times a week, though! You must be getting better!

0:08:45 > 0:08:50I would like to think so, but I'm probably not the right person to ask.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52OK. What about football? Do you follow that?

0:08:52 > 0:08:58I thought I was keen on football and quite knowledgeable until I stood here!

0:08:58 > 0:09:00The old brain feels a bit addled

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- and it's difficult coming up with good answers.- OK.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05What are you going to go for?

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Someone mentioned Arsene Wenger

0:09:07 > 0:09:13and I think the manager prior to Wenger was a guy called Bruce Rioch.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15Bruce Rioch says Geoff.

0:09:15 > 0:09:20Let's see if that's right and if so, how many of our 100 said Bruce Rioch.

0:09:21 > 0:09:22Absolutely right.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26Four is our best score so far.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31Oh, look at that! Very well done, Geoff.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Taken the crown there. A lovely low score of one.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37For Bruce Rioch.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39Great work, Geoff. As you say,

0:09:39 > 0:09:42he was just before Arsene Wenger. Went on to manage Wigan and Norwich.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Then headed off to Denmark.

0:09:44 > 0:09:48Thank you. Now, we're halfway through the round. Let's look at the scores as they stand.

0:09:48 > 0:09:52Geoff, with this answer there, Bruce Rioch, scoring the lowest score of that pass.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55Well done. Geoff and Rebecca looking pretty strong.

0:09:55 > 0:09:59Then up to four where we find Laurence and Danny. Five where we find Carolyn and Lorraine,

0:09:59 > 0:10:01and then I'm sorry, Tom and Jamie.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04A hike up to 50 where we find you.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07- Jamie, how's your football? - OK. I'll give it a go.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10- I've got some answers there, so... - Very good.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13Best of luck. Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:10:17 > 0:10:20OK. Rebecca, welcome back.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22How brilliant was Geoff's answer there?

0:10:22 > 0:10:23- Fantastic.- Fantastic.

0:10:24 > 0:10:28Fantastic. Now, you didn't look too happy with this, when football came up.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31No. I should know Liverpool managers,

0:10:31 > 0:10:33because my father is an avid Liverpool fan.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36He'll be sitting there, shouting them all out.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39But I might have picked up on one or two names.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41So I've got one that I'll go with.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45- OK.- That's Rafa Benitez. - Rafa Benitez.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47Rafa Benitez, says Rebecca.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50You're on one. The high scorers are Jamie and Tom on 50.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53If you can score 48 or less, you're through to the next round.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56There's your red line. Below that, you avoid becoming the new high scorers.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59How many of our 100 said Rafa Benitez?

0:11:04 > 0:11:07You've done it. Very well done, Rebecca.

0:11:07 > 0:11:08Still going down. Ten.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15That gives you a total of 11.

0:11:15 > 0:11:19Well played, Rebecca. Yes, Liverpool manager from 2004 to 2010.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21Won the Champions League, amongst other things.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24He was appointed Chelsea manager at the end of 2012.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29Now, then, Jamie. Here we are. What do you do, Jamie?

0:11:29 > 0:11:33- I'm a gardener, self-employed. - How long have you done that for?

0:11:33 > 0:11:36I went to college about five years ago and worked for a couple of companies.

0:11:36 > 0:11:42- Then started off by myself. - How's it going?- Pretty good. I've been fully booked.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44Good stuff. So, football.

0:11:44 > 0:11:49- Football, Jamie.- Yeah.- Do you have the football knowledge to save yourself and Tom?

0:11:49 > 0:11:51I'll give it a go!

0:11:51 > 0:11:55OK. You're quite far ahead. It has to be a low-scoring answer.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58I'm going to go for Roy Evans.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01Roy Evans, says Jamie. Roy Evans.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04There's no red line for you as the high scorers.

0:12:04 > 0:12:08Let's see. Roy Evans. Is it right, and if it is, how many people said Roy Evans?

0:12:10 > 0:12:12Absolutely right.

0:12:17 > 0:12:22Two! Very well done, indeed, Jamie. That's a fantastic answer.

0:12:22 > 0:12:24Lovely low score, taking your total up to 52.

0:12:24 > 0:12:28- Is it good enough to keep you in the game, I wonder. Richard? - Good answer, Jamie.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32Puts the pressure on the last two podiums. Liverpool manager from '94 to '98.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Thank you very much, Richard. Now, then, Danny.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37- Hello.- What do you do, Danny?

0:12:37 > 0:12:39I'm a chef in a pub in Rochester.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41Do you like cooking other than in the pub?

0:12:41 > 0:12:45- Sometimes, but not really.- Not so much.- If I could choose not to, I wouldn't.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47I'd rather call the kebab man!

0:12:49 > 0:12:51- He's only...- You have a kebab man who delivers?!

0:12:51 > 0:12:54- Yeah, he's brilliant.- Wow.- Mmm!

0:12:54 > 0:12:57He knows me. I ring up and he goes, "All right, Danny?"

0:12:57 > 0:12:59He says, "Usual?"

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Good stuff. Do you follow football as well?

0:13:02 > 0:13:06- Yes, I follow football. I'm a Fulham supporter.- Yay!

0:13:08 > 0:13:10- Come on, you Whites!- There you are.

0:13:10 > 0:13:13Very good, Danny. Have you got a good answer?

0:13:13 > 0:13:15The high scorers are Jamie and Tom on 52.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18You're on four. If you can score 47 or less,

0:13:18 > 0:13:19you're fine.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21I'm gonna go with Chelsea again.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24I'm gonna go Gianluca Vialli.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27Gianluca Vialli, says Danny. Gianluca Vialli.

0:13:27 > 0:13:31There is your red line. If you get below that red line, you are through to the next round.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34Gianluca Vialli. How many people said it? Is it right?

0:13:35 > 0:13:37It is right.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41And you are through to the next round.

0:13:43 > 0:13:44Five!

0:13:46 > 0:13:51Very well done, Danny. Nine our lowest total so far. Richard?

0:13:51 > 0:13:53Well done, Danny. He took over from Ruud Gullit.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56- Are you really a Fulham fan?- Yes.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58It won't put the Chelsea answer right.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01There's been millions of them, though, that's the thing.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03They have a new one every two weeks or so!

0:14:03 > 0:14:06It's like the 94 bus up there at Stamford Bridge!

0:14:07 > 0:14:11Now, then, Lorraine. Here we have a game on our hands.

0:14:11 > 0:14:12Jamie and Tom on 52. You're on five.

0:14:12 > 0:14:18- Lorraine, do you have any interest in football?- None whatsoever! - What are your hobbies, remind us.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21Um, I like film and TV and reading horror.

0:14:21 > 0:14:23So football is a no-no!

0:14:23 > 0:14:27- OK. This is kind of horror for you, then!- Definitely!

0:14:27 > 0:14:31- Horror.- You've got a lovely low score courtesy of Carolyn's brilliant answer.- I'm so sorry!

0:14:31 > 0:14:33I'm going to score really high.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36I know a really well-known manager.

0:14:36 > 0:14:42I don't want to say this, but I know Jose Mourinho did Chelsea. But I think that'll be too high.

0:14:42 > 0:14:44Harry Redknapp springs to mind.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46I don't know if that's Newcastle or Liverpool!

0:14:46 > 0:14:48Or neither!

0:14:49 > 0:14:52I'm just gonna go Jose Mourinho cos I don't know if Harry Redknapp's right.

0:14:52 > 0:14:57- Jose Mourinho.- Jose Mourinho, says Lorraine. Jose Mourinho.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00You want to score 46 or less. There's your red line.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04Best of luck. Jose Mourinho. Is it right? How many people said it?

0:15:06 > 0:15:07It's right.

0:15:10 > 0:15:11You've got it!

0:15:11 > 0:15:13You've done it! 22!

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Very, very well done indeed!

0:15:18 > 0:15:22A great bit of teamwork there, Carolyn. You earned that space there.

0:15:22 > 0:15:2422 your score, 27 your total. Well done.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Well done, Lorraine.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29That's yet another Chelsea manager. There you go.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31It's nice to make people happy, isn't it?

0:15:31 > 0:15:33At tea-time. That's good.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36There's a bunch of pointless answers. Let's look at a few of them.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38I'm sure some of you will have got some of these.

0:15:38 > 0:15:41Glenn Hoddle, Chelsea, a pointless answer.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43Howard Kendall and Joe Royle both managed Man City.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48Pat Rice, Arsene Wenger's assistant for many years,

0:15:48 > 0:15:50was caretaker/manager Arsenal.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53Phil Neal, caretaker/manager, Ray Wilkins, caretaker/manager of Chelsea.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58Ronnie Moran, caretaker/manager at Liverpool,

0:15:58 > 0:16:02Steve Coppell at Man City and Stewart Houston, another caretaker, at Arsenal.

0:16:02 > 0:16:06The other pointless answers, Asa Hartford, Brian Horton, David Webb,

0:16:06 > 0:16:09Frank Clarke, Graham Rix, Ian Porterfield, Jimmy Frazelle,

0:16:09 > 0:16:11Mel Machin and Tony Book.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13Well done if you said any of those at home.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16- What were the big ones?- The biggest scorers, we've seen a couple already.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19Lorraine's given us Jose Mourinho,

0:16:19 > 0:16:21the third biggest scorer of all, 22 points.

0:16:21 > 0:16:26Kenny Dalglish is second, two spells at Liverpool, 34 points.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29So Tom, your answer was very costly, I'm afraid.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32Arsene Wenger, 50 points. Biggest of the lot.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of our first round,

0:16:35 > 0:16:39the losing pair with their high score of 52, I'm afraid it's Jamie and Tom.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42Not a bad total, really. Actually not that big, really.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45We've sent people off with far more than that!

0:16:46 > 0:16:50A cracking answer from you there, with Roy Evans.

0:16:50 > 0:16:55- Arsene Wenger, as we saw... - Football's not my thing!- A big one.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Well, that was a credit to you both.

0:16:57 > 0:16:58No incorrect answers.

0:16:58 > 0:17:02Very well done. And your team score, really not bad at all.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05We'll look forward to seeing you next time

0:17:05 > 0:17:06when I'm sure we'll see much more of you.

0:17:06 > 0:17:10- Jamie and Tom, thanks for playing. Great contestants.- Thank you. - Thanks.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14For the remaining three pairs, it's time for Round Two.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23Obviously, there's only room for two pairs in our head-to-head.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26One of these pairs will be leaving us at the end of the round.

0:17:26 > 0:17:29Our two returning couples remain with us.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Rebecca and Geoff, Lorraine and Carolyn.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34That was a bit of a... Oooh!

0:17:34 > 0:17:37You climbed out of that one pretty well, Lorraine. Not bad at all.

0:17:37 > 0:17:41But you both have to be careful because Laurence and Danny know what they're about.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44Very good scoring from them in that last round.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Our category for Round Two is...

0:17:50 > 0:17:53Poetry. Decide in your pairs who's going first and who's second.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56Whoever's first, please step up to the podium.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01OK. The question concerns...

0:18:04 > 0:18:06Lines from famous poems. Richard?

0:18:06 > 0:18:09On each pass, we'll show you six lines from famous poems

0:18:09 > 0:18:11but on each one we've left out a word.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13Just tell us what that word is, please.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15We'll tell you the name of the poets as well.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18Just one word missing from each one. There are 12 in all to have a go at at home.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21Good luck at home. Good luck here. Good luck, audience.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23- Good luck, Tsander. - Thank you.- Let's do this.

0:18:24 > 0:18:25Yeah.

0:18:25 > 0:18:29We're looking for the words that complete these famous lines of poetry.

0:18:29 > 0:18:30We've got six on our first board:

0:18:56 > 0:18:58I'll read those a bit more quickly!

0:19:15 > 0:19:17Phew! There we are. Carolyn.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19Carolyn, you get the pick of that.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22OK. I'm pleased to see some Rabbie Burns.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24I am a fan.

0:19:24 > 0:19:30I do know two answers. I'm trying to work out which is best to go for.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33I'm going to go for Lear,

0:19:33 > 0:19:36and say "In a beautiful pea-green boat."

0:19:36 > 0:19:42In a beautiful pea-green boat. Boat is the missing word says Carolyn.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44Is it right? How many people said boat?

0:19:45 > 0:19:46Absolutely right.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58A big score, but better safe than sorry. At least not 100.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Exactly. Danny.

0:20:01 > 0:20:02Hello.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07- This is not a strong subject for me at all.- OK.

0:20:07 > 0:20:12- OK. How many on that board do you think you might know?- None.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16So I think I'm just going to have to go for a guess

0:20:16 > 0:20:22on Marvell, and go "fair" as the missing word.

0:20:22 > 0:20:26Had we but world enough and time, this "fair", lady, were no crime.

0:20:26 > 0:20:32Fair, says Danny. Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many of our 100 people said it.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37Bad luck, Danny. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.

0:20:37 > 0:20:41- That scores the maximum of 100 points. Sorry.- Sorry, Danny.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46OK. Now, then, Geoff.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49- This board is all yours.- Hmm.

0:20:49 > 0:20:54If you fancied it, you could talk us through it and see if you have any ideas of some of those blanks.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57Well, the Burns one is probably "rose".

0:20:57 > 0:21:00But I don't think that's gonna score very well.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02I'm going to opt for the first one.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06I think it's "Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Slough."

0:21:06 > 0:21:11Slough, says Geoff. Slough. Is it right and how many of our 100 people knew that answer. Slough.

0:21:13 > 0:21:15It's right!

0:21:19 > 0:21:2112.

0:21:26 > 0:21:2912. Very well done. Our best score of the round so far.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31I knew Geoff wouldn't let us down. I just knew it.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Slough. It isn't fit for humans now.

0:21:34 > 0:21:37His daughter said he regretted writing it because it gave Slough such a bad name.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39Let's take a look at the rest of the board.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43- Now, "season of mists and..." - Mellow.- "..mellow fruitfulness."

0:21:43 > 0:21:46Keats. Absolutely right. 19 points.

0:21:46 > 0:21:51- "The curfew tolls the..."- Knell. - "..the knell of parting day."

0:21:51 > 0:21:54It is "My luve's like a red, red rose." The Burns one.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56It's actually a fairly low scorer.

0:21:56 > 0:21:57It scored less than the 64.

0:21:57 > 0:21:5853 points, that would have got you.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01And the best answer on the board,

0:22:01 > 0:22:02"Had we but world enough, and time,

0:22:02 > 0:22:06- "this..."- Coyness.- "..coyness, lady, were no crime." Andrew Marvell.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09Absolutely right. One point. Well done if you said that.

0:22:09 > 0:22:12- Well done for saying that. - Thank you very much.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15Let's look at the scores half-way through the round.

0:22:15 > 0:22:1912 our best score of that pass. Geoff and Rebecca looking particularly strong.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21Up to 64 where we find Carolyn and Lorraine.

0:22:21 > 0:22:25Then up to 100 where Danny and Laurence are.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28Can the second players please take their places at the podium.

0:22:31 > 0:22:35OK. We'll put six more lines of poetry on the board.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37Here they come. We have got...

0:23:00 > 0:23:02I'll read those all a bit more quickly.

0:23:16 > 0:23:20We are looking for the words that complete these famous lines.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24Rebecca, you want to find the one the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26How do you feel about this, Rebecca?

0:23:26 > 0:23:29The first board was better, for me.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31I'll go with the second one.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34"Water, water, everywhere, nor any drop to drink."

0:23:34 > 0:23:37Nor any drop to drink, says Rebecca.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40You're on 12. The high scorers are Laurence and Danny on 100.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43If you can score 87 or less, you're through to the next round.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46OK. There is your red line.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Drink. Is that right? How many people said it, if it is.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51Absolutely right and you're through.

0:23:58 > 0:23:5948, your total.

0:24:02 > 0:24:04Rock solid again on podium three.

0:24:04 > 0:24:07From the rhyme The Ancient Mariner. Often misquoted as "but not a drop to drink."

0:24:07 > 0:24:10- Laurence.- Hi. - How are we feeling about this board?

0:24:10 > 0:24:12I'm feeling great!

0:24:15 > 0:24:18I can see a very high score coming from this.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21- Do you know any of them? - I would have known drink.

0:24:21 > 0:24:25And I've heard of a couple of them, but I don't know them.

0:24:25 > 0:24:27So I'm going to take a guess.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29I'm going to guess

0:24:29 > 0:24:32that October is the cruellest month.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35October. Why particularly October?

0:24:35 > 0:24:37It just sounded better. I went through them all, you see.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39I thought, "Which one sounds better?"

0:24:39 > 0:24:44"Which is the cruellest?" "October." "Oh, you're right, it is!"

0:24:44 > 0:24:45Ah.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48Let's find out if Eliot thought that was the case.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50October. Is it the cruellest month?

0:24:52 > 0:24:56I'm afraid it's not. There's a crueller month than October!

0:24:56 > 0:25:02I'm sorry to say that's an incorrect answer and cruelly that scores 100, taking your total up to 200.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05Yes, sorry, October is the second cruellest month, I'm afraid.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07So you were very, very close.

0:25:07 > 0:25:11- I'll give the correct answer at the end of the pass. - Now, then, Lorraine.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14- The board is yours.- Well...

0:25:14 > 0:25:17I studied Philip Larkin at high school, but I don't know the answer.

0:25:17 > 0:25:22So I think the top one is, "Will you walk a little faster?" said a tortoise to a snail.

0:25:22 > 0:25:26And I think Matilda told such dreadful lies.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28But I'm not 100% on either.

0:25:28 > 0:25:31I think I'm going to go for the top one and say "tortoise".

0:25:31 > 0:25:35You say "tortoise" for the Carroll. Let's see if tortoise is right.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38You're through to the next round, whatever happens. So pressure is off.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41But let's see how many people said tortoise, and if it's right.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47An incorrect answer, as it turns out. Scores you 100 points.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50But you're through anyway. Your total is 164. Richard?

0:25:50 > 0:25:52I wonder how many people at home said tortoise.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55It sounds right. It's actually whiting.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58It would have scored five points. Would have been a very good answer.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01Now, the cruellest month. Not October.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05It's April. April is the cruellest month, apparently.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07Ten points that would have scored.

0:26:07 > 0:26:11Should have gone for Matilda told such dreadful lies.

0:26:11 > 0:26:15"Matilda told such dreadful lies, they made one gasp and stretch one's eyes."

0:26:15 > 0:26:17Hilaire Belloc. 20 points.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20- "I wandered lonely as a..."- Cloud.

0:26:20 > 0:26:25Well done. Wordsworth. 62, though. You'd think it would have scored more.

0:26:25 > 0:26:29Now this is a pointless answer. "Man hands on..." Do you know it?

0:26:29 > 0:26:31- It's misery, I think.- It is misery.

0:26:31 > 0:26:35"Man hands on misery to man." By Philip Larkin.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38- One of his...- Cheerier. - ..cheerier numbers!- Yeah.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41Absolutely. Laurence hands on misery to Danny.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43In fact, it was Danny hands on misery to Laurence!

0:26:43 > 0:26:45It's a two-way street!

0:26:45 > 0:26:48Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of Round Two,

0:26:48 > 0:26:51our losing pair with their high score of 200,

0:26:51 > 0:26:54I'm afraid, Laurence and Danny... Oh, you were so good in Round One.

0:26:54 > 0:26:56The pair, very much, the pair to beat.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00And the pair everyone beat, as it turns out!

0:27:00 > 0:27:04In this second round, poetry not really your thing.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06But you'll be back next time

0:27:06 > 0:27:09and we look forward to seeing you when you come back. Thanks for playing.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16But the two remaining pairs are one step closer to the final

0:27:16 > 0:27:18with the chance of taking home our jackpot as we enter the head-to-head.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28Congratulations, Rebecca and Geoff, Lorraine and Carolyn.

0:27:28 > 0:27:30You're one round away from the final

0:27:30 > 0:27:33and a chance to play for our jackpot which currently stands at £1,000.

0:27:37 > 0:27:40Obviously only one pair can play for that money.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42To decide which pair, you'll now go head-to-head.

0:27:42 > 0:27:47This time you can confer. The first pair to win two questions will play for that jackpot.

0:27:47 > 0:27:51So, Lorraine and Carolyn. Back you come for a second time and you're in the head-to-head.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54- How are you feeling? - We're feeling good.

0:27:54 > 0:27:57We had some stiff competition, so we're pleased to make it this far.

0:27:57 > 0:28:00- Some quite testing rounds, as well. - Definitely.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03You've made it through them. Rebecca and Geoff, you've been here before.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06This time, you're in the position of the lower scorers.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10So you get to start. And you all get to confer,

0:28:10 > 0:28:13so you can put your heads together. Anything can happen. Very exciting.

0:28:13 > 0:28:15Let's play the head-to-head.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22Here's your first question. And it concerns...

0:28:27 > 0:28:30We'll show you five pictures of UK royal weddings.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32We need you to tell us the person in the picture

0:28:32 > 0:28:35who was not a member of the royal family before the wedding.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37So the person marrying into the royal family, please.

0:28:37 > 0:28:40Give us their names before they were married. Very best of luck.

0:28:40 > 0:28:45Thanks very much, Richard. Let's reveal our five royal wedding couples.

0:28:45 > 0:28:47Here they are. We have got...

0:29:01 > 0:29:04There we are. Five royal couples.

0:29:04 > 0:29:06We want the names of the commoners

0:29:06 > 0:29:09who are marrying into the royal family in each case.

0:29:09 > 0:29:13Rebecca and Geoff, you've played best throughout the show so far so you go first.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15OK.

0:29:17 > 0:29:19We're going to go for B.

0:29:19 > 0:29:23And it's Anthony Armstrong-Jones.

0:29:23 > 0:29:25OK. B. Anthony Armstrong-Jones.

0:29:25 > 0:29:28Lorraine and Carolyn.

0:29:28 > 0:29:30- Um...- We know a couple.

0:29:30 > 0:29:34We know a couple but I think we're gonna go for E.

0:29:34 > 0:29:38- Mark Phillips.- E. Mark Phillips.

0:29:38 > 0:29:41We have Anthony Armstrong-Jones and we have Mark Phillips.

0:29:41 > 0:29:43Rebecca and Geoff went for Anthony Armstrong-Jones.

0:29:43 > 0:29:46Is that right, and if it is, how many of our 100 people said it.

0:29:48 > 0:29:49It's correct.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56Absolutely right. 15.

0:29:57 > 0:29:59That's a great score.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04Lorraine and Carolyn have said Mark Phillips.

0:30:04 > 0:30:07Is it right, and if so, how many of our 100 people said Mark Phillips.

0:30:09 > 0:30:11It's right.

0:30:21 > 0:30:2437. So Rebecca and Geoff, after one question, you are up one-nil.

0:30:24 > 0:30:27- Richard?- Let's go through a couple of the bigger answers first.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29C is obviously Sarah Ferguson.

0:30:31 > 0:30:33Quite low, I'd have thought.

0:30:33 > 0:30:36D, marrying Prince Edward, is Sophie Rhys-Jones.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41That's very low.

0:30:41 > 0:30:42A is a pointless answer.

0:30:42 > 0:30:47Marrying Sarah Armstrong-Jones, Daniel Chatto.

0:30:47 > 0:30:49Very well done if you said that.

0:30:49 > 0:30:51A pointless answer.

0:30:51 > 0:30:53Thank you very much. Here's your second question.

0:30:53 > 0:30:57Lorraine and Carolyn, you have to win this one to stay in the game. It concerns...

0:31:00 > 0:31:04- Florida. Richard.- Quite simply, five clues to facts about Florida.

0:31:04 > 0:31:07- Which of these is the most obscure? - Thanks very much.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10Let's reveal our five clues to facts about Florida. We have got...

0:31:21 > 0:31:23I'll read those one last time.

0:31:34 > 0:31:36Five clues to facts about Florida.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38Lorraine and Carolyn, you go first.

0:31:43 > 0:31:47There's a couple that I think I know the answer to, but I'm not sure.

0:31:47 > 0:31:51So I'll go for the one we're 100% on,

0:31:51 > 0:31:54and that is the Kennedy Space Centre.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56The Kennedy Space Centre, you say.

0:31:56 > 0:31:58The Kennedy Space Centre.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01Rebecca and Geoff, take us through the board and fill in the blanks.

0:32:01 > 0:32:04I think its most populous city would probably be Miami.

0:32:04 > 0:32:08The name of the subtropical wetlands would be the Everglades.

0:32:08 > 0:32:11The chain of islands would be the Florida Keys.

0:32:11 > 0:32:16And the state capital... Some of these state capitals are vague.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18They're not necessarily the town you think it would be.

0:32:18 > 0:32:21Maybe it's Tampa, I don't know.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23- What do you want to go for? - The Everglades?

0:32:23 > 0:32:27- Everglades?- OK.- We'll go for the Everglades.

0:32:27 > 0:32:29The Everglades, say Rebecca and Geoff.

0:32:29 > 0:32:31So, we have Kennedy versus the Everglades.

0:32:31 > 0:32:34Let's see who wins. Lorraine and Carolyn went for Kennedy,

0:32:34 > 0:32:37the president after which the space centre is named.

0:32:37 > 0:32:40Is it right? How many of our 100 people said Kennedy?

0:32:41 > 0:32:43It's absolutely right.

0:32:50 > 0:32:54Rebecca and Geoff have named the subtropical wetlands as the Everglades.

0:32:54 > 0:32:57Is it right, and how many of our 100 people said the Everglades.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01It's absolutely right.

0:33:01 > 0:33:03And it wins the question for them.

0:33:04 > 0:33:0734. Very well done indeed.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12Which means, Rebecca and Geoff, after only two questions

0:33:12 > 0:33:14you are through to the final two-nil.

0:33:14 > 0:33:18Yeah, the brilliant performance continues from Rebecca and Geoff. Very well played.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20You were right about the chain of islands.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27The state capital, it's never what you think it's going to be.

0:33:32 > 0:33:34Now, the other one is a pointless answer.

0:33:35 > 0:33:37Jacksonville, a pointless answer.

0:33:37 > 0:33:39Thank you very much, Richard.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43So our losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, I'm afraid, is Lorraine and Carolyn,

0:33:43 > 0:33:46when you've done so well. Really, really well.

0:33:46 > 0:33:49It was Round Two last time. This time sailing through to the head-to-head.

0:33:49 > 0:33:54And two great answers there. You just had Rebecca and Geoff to deal with!

0:33:54 > 0:33:56They pipped you on each one.

0:33:56 > 0:34:00- It's been lovely having you on the show. Thank you both so much for playing.- Thank you!

0:34:03 > 0:34:06But for Rebecca and Geoff, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:34:10 > 0:34:13Congratulations, Rebecca and Geoff. You've seen off all the competition

0:34:13 > 0:34:15and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy!

0:34:21 > 0:34:23You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £1,000.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33You've done so well today.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35Through to the head-to-head, two-nil this time.

0:34:35 > 0:34:40It was very hard-fought last time and you very narrowly lost.

0:34:40 > 0:34:41But this time you sailed right through.

0:34:41 > 0:34:44What would you like to see come up in this final round?

0:34:44 > 0:34:46Films by Pedro Almodovar.

0:34:46 > 0:34:49Wow. You answered that straight off.

0:34:49 > 0:34:50Yes. My favourite director.

0:34:50 > 0:34:54OK. Very good indeed. Geoff, how about you?

0:34:54 > 0:34:56I guess my most... '60s pop would be great.

0:34:56 > 0:35:00- '60s pop.- That would be my strongest subject.

0:35:00 > 0:35:04OK, so we're looking for '60s pop or Spanish cinema! There we are!

0:35:04 > 0:35:08The rules are very simple. To win the money, just find a pointless answer.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11Do that and you go home with that jackpot of £1,000.

0:35:11 > 0:35:15First, you need to choose a category. Here are your five options. They are...

0:35:24 > 0:35:25I don't like any of them, really!

0:35:25 > 0:35:29- What about you?- It depends what kind of detective fiction it is.

0:35:29 > 0:35:34QUIET CONFERRING

0:35:39 > 0:35:44OK. We're gonna go for Detective Fiction.

0:35:44 > 0:35:47Very good. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:35:47 > 0:35:49We gave 100 people 100 seconds

0:35:49 > 0:35:54to name as many Inspector Morse and Jack Frost novels as they could.

0:35:54 > 0:35:58- Richard?- We're looking for any novel that features either Inspector Morse

0:35:58 > 0:36:02or Jack Frost, written by Colin Dexter and R.D.Wingfield respectively.

0:36:02 > 0:36:06Not short stories or collections of stories, just any novel featuring any of those two characters,

0:36:06 > 0:36:10up to the end of September 2012. Very best of luck.

0:36:10 > 0:36:13OK. You have up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:36:13 > 0:36:17All you need to win that £1,000 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20- Are you ready?- Yeah.- Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.

0:36:21 > 0:36:23There they are. Your time starts now.

0:36:23 > 0:36:26- I can't think of any. - Not a single one.

0:36:26 > 0:36:31The last one, with Morse, was it called Endeavour?

0:36:31 > 0:36:34- Didn't they reveal his name? - His middle name was Endeavour.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36No, that was his first name.

0:36:36 > 0:36:39- Oh, it was his first name? Right. - Was it called Endeavour?

0:36:39 > 0:36:42I don't know. We might as well give it a bash.

0:36:42 > 0:36:44Uh...

0:36:44 > 0:36:47- I don't know any more. - No, I don't know any at all.

0:36:47 > 0:36:50They were both television programmes, weren't they?

0:36:50 > 0:36:54- Both television programmes. - So we'll try one as Endeavour.

0:36:57 > 0:37:00- I've got no clue. I don't even think I could guess.- The Oxford Murders?

0:37:00 > 0:37:02The Oxford Murders! What about that?

0:37:04 > 0:37:10What was the name, was it Denton, the name of the village where Jack Frost lives?

0:37:10 > 0:37:13- Yeah.- Something about Denton. The Denton Murders!

0:37:13 > 0:37:15Ten seconds left.

0:37:15 > 0:37:18- Death in Denton.- Death in Denton? Yeah, I like that!

0:37:18 > 0:37:20- Yeah?- Yeah.- We'll do that.

0:37:20 > 0:37:23- Right.- Brilliant. - That's what we'll do.

0:37:23 > 0:37:25OK. That's time up.

0:37:25 > 0:37:28We were looking for Inspector Morse or Jack Frost novels.

0:37:28 > 0:37:30I now need your three answers.

0:37:30 > 0:37:33- We're sadly lacking here, I'm afraid.- OK.

0:37:33 > 0:37:36So it's going to be educated guesses.

0:37:37 > 0:37:41- Good.- Uneducated guesses!- OK. What are you going to go for?

0:37:41 > 0:37:46Well, we know that the Jack Frost novels took place in a town called Denton.

0:37:46 > 0:37:49- Right.- So we're going to go for Death in Denton.

0:37:49 > 0:37:53- Death in Denton.- A Death in Denton. - A death. A death.

0:37:53 > 0:37:54Important, yes, let's get it right!

0:37:54 > 0:37:57- A Death in Denton.- Cos I don't think Death in Denton was one!

0:37:57 > 0:38:00LAUGHTER

0:38:00 > 0:38:02- A Death in Denton.- Yes, definitely.

0:38:02 > 0:38:07- Endeavour.- Because that Morse's first name,

0:38:07 > 0:38:10- we're going to call one Endeavour. - Endeavour.

0:38:10 > 0:38:15And because a lot of his detective adventures took place in Oxford,

0:38:15 > 0:38:17we're going to call it The Oxford Killings.

0:38:17 > 0:38:19- Are we?- Are we?

0:38:19 > 0:38:21No, I like it. Let's go with that.

0:38:21 > 0:38:23- The Oxford Killings.- Yeah.- Yes.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25OK. Of those three,

0:38:25 > 0:38:27which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:38:27 > 0:38:30- I think we're confident on all of them.- Yeah!

0:38:30 > 0:38:32LAUGHTER

0:38:37 > 0:38:39Which shall we put last, for form's sake?

0:38:39 > 0:38:41- Shall we say...- Endeavour. - Endeavour.

0:38:41 > 0:38:43OK. We'll put Endeavour last.

0:38:43 > 0:38:46And which... Maybe A Death in Denton?

0:38:46 > 0:38:51- Make that second.- Shall we put that second?- Put that second. I don't think we'll get that far, but...

0:38:51 > 0:38:55So The Oxford Killings we'll bung up at the top of the list.

0:38:55 > 0:38:57Well, it sold very well, that one.

0:38:57 > 0:39:01Very good indeed. Let's pop those up on the board. Here they are.

0:39:01 > 0:39:03We have got...

0:39:09 > 0:39:13So we were looking for Inspector Morse or Jack Frost novels.

0:39:13 > 0:39:15Your first answer was The Oxford Killings.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20Shall we just see, shall we?

0:39:20 > 0:39:24- This was your least confident shot at a pointless...- Tense, isn't it? - Isn't it?

0:39:24 > 0:39:31OK. For £1,000, shall we see if anyone said...The Oxford Killings.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35- Oh, no! I know.- What?!

0:39:35 > 0:39:41Well, we must have... Maybe it is... It'll just be The Oxford Killing, maybe.

0:39:41 > 0:39:44Maybe it's single. Unfortunately not a pointless answer, I'm afraid.

0:39:44 > 0:39:46So only two more chances to win today's jackpot.

0:39:46 > 0:39:52Let's just suppose, cos I think one of your answers sounds quite plausible.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56Let's say one of those won the jackpot, what would you do with the £1,000, Geoff?

0:39:56 > 0:39:58I think I'd have a night out in Denton!

0:40:00 > 0:40:02All I'd say is, "Careful!"

0:40:04 > 0:40:07- Rebecca?- I'd just save it.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10Just put it away for a rainy day.

0:40:10 > 0:40:11- Yeah.- OK. Very good.

0:40:11 > 0:40:15Inspector Morse or Jack Frost novels. Let's hope nobody said A Death in Denton.

0:40:15 > 0:40:19This has to be correct. Then it has to be pointless.

0:40:19 > 0:40:22Shall we see? Did anybody say A Death in Denton? Is it right?

0:40:24 > 0:40:27Bad luck! I'm afraid an incorrect answer, as it happens!

0:40:27 > 0:40:30Only one more chance to win today's jackpot. Everything is riding on Endeavour.

0:40:30 > 0:40:33I think we're now back on solid ground here.

0:40:33 > 0:40:37- Endeavour.- I'd like to think so. - We know it was his first name. You thought his middle name.

0:40:37 > 0:40:41- Yes, but Rebecca corrected me. - His first name being, of course, "Inspector"!

0:40:43 > 0:40:46Inspector Morse or Jack Frost novels.

0:40:46 > 0:40:49Your third answer, your most plausible answer, is Endeavour.

0:40:49 > 0:40:52If this is right and it's pointless,

0:40:52 > 0:40:54you'll leave here with £1,000.

0:40:54 > 0:40:56Let's find out. Did anybody say Endeavour?

0:40:58 > 0:41:00Oh, no!

0:41:01 > 0:41:03Bad luck!

0:41:03 > 0:41:04I'm so sorry!

0:41:06 > 0:41:09Pedro Almodovar didn't come up!

0:41:09 > 0:41:11'60s music didn't come up.

0:41:11 > 0:41:14- Damn!- I'm afraid Inspector Morse and Jack Frost did.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17Unfortunately, you didn't happen to know any answers for that category.

0:41:17 > 0:41:20It's a great shame you didn't find that all-important pointless answer.

0:41:20 > 0:41:24So you don't win today's jackpot of £1,000, which rolls over to the next show.

0:41:24 > 0:41:27But you've been brilliant contestants. It's been great having you on both shows.

0:41:27 > 0:41:31Thank you. And you do get to take home our Pointless trophy. Well done.

0:41:38 > 0:41:43That's really unlucky. You covered yourself in glory from the moment you arrived on the last show.

0:41:43 > 0:41:46It was a tough category.

0:41:46 > 0:41:50Endeavour was the name... ITV did a series, a prequel to Morse,

0:41:50 > 0:41:53about the early days. That was called Endeavour.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56And you were right about Denton, that's where the Jack Frost novels are set.

0:41:56 > 0:41:59Let's take a look at the pointless answers.

0:41:59 > 0:42:00There's nine of them.

0:42:00 > 0:42:03These are all Morse novels.

0:42:07 > 0:42:08Three more Morse novels.

0:42:13 > 0:42:17- I wonder what the secret was?- No-one knows.- I wonder that the riddle was?

0:42:18 > 0:42:20I wonder what the jewel was?

0:42:21 > 0:42:26The Silent World of Nicholas Quinn has been adapted for TV and radio.

0:42:26 > 0:42:28The Way Through the Woods, won the Gold Dagger in 1982.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30And the only Frost answer.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32All the other Frosts scored points.

0:42:32 > 0:42:33Winter Frost, the fifth Frost novel.

0:42:33 > 0:42:38Well done if you said any of those at home. Tough luck, guys, you've been brilliant.

0:42:42 > 0:42:45Unfortunately, we do have to say goodbye to you, Rebecca and Geoff.

0:42:45 > 0:42:49It's been wonderful. Thank you both for playing. Rebecca and Geoff.

0:42:49 > 0:42:50Thank you!

0:42:53 > 0:42:56Sadly, they didn't win our jackpot, so it rolls over to our next show

0:42:56 > 0:42:59when we'll be playing for £2,000.

0:43:02 > 0:43:06- Join us to see if someone can win it. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye!

0:43:06 > 0:43:08And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye!
