0:00:21 > 0:00:22Thank you very much indeed.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Hello. I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless.
0:00:25 > 0:00:27This is the quiz show where the questions have been asked to
0:00:27 > 0:00:30100 people before the show, and our contestants here
0:00:30 > 0:00:33have to come up with the answers that the fewest of those 100 people
0:00:33 > 0:00:35could think of. Let's meet today's players.
0:00:39 > 0:00:40And couple number one.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43My name is Mark, and this is my work colleague Delia,
0:00:43 > 0:00:46and I'm from Newtownards and Delia's from Belfast.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47And couple number two.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50I'm Connie, this is my boyfriend Rob and we're from Middlesbrough.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52And couple number three.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55I'm Krish. This is Tom, my housemate, and we're from London.
0:00:55 > 0:00:56And couple number four.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58I'm Heather. This is my Dad, Fergus.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00I'm from Leicester and he's from Nottingham.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03And these, ladies and gentlemen, are today's contestants.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05APPLAUSE
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Thank you all very much. We'll find out more about you all
0:01:08 > 0:01:09throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12There's only one person left for me to introduce.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14He's bright, he's sharp, he's intell...
0:01:14 > 0:01:16He's in television.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18It's my Pointless friend. It's Richard.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20Hiya. Hello.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22APPLAUSE
0:01:23 > 0:01:24Afternoon.
0:01:24 > 0:01:25Good afternoon to you.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27I'm just feeling bad for Delia and Mark.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29- They very unlucky last time, weren't they?- Yeah.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33- They got knocked out. They got one letter wrong in an answer.- Yeah.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37- I'd say even half a letter. - Yeah, an E instead of a P.- Yeah.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41- That's tough, isn't it? But it means that they'll be the pair to look out for today, I suspect.- Yes.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Question one's a nice one. It's a subject area people are usually good at
0:01:44 > 0:01:48but requires a little bit of lateral thinking. Should be a good question, number one.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51- I like that.- What, lateral thinking?
0:01:51 > 0:01:54- No, I just like the sound of that. - Yeah?- Yeah!- Going to be amazing.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57- Yes, it's going to be totes amaze. - AUDIENCE LAUGH
0:01:57 > 0:02:00- You know what, I know you mock it, but it is going to be totes amaze. - Wow.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03I would say it's going to be trip totes amaze,
0:02:03 > 0:02:07- which is three times as amazing as you think it's going to be.- Wow.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10- That is... That's almost scarily amaze.- I know.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12- It's ridic, right? - Yeah, that is ridic.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- That's, like, well ridic. - That is extraor.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16LAUGHTER
0:02:16 > 0:02:17It is going to be phenom.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19HE LAUGHS
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Oh, yes! Totes fandab.
0:02:23 > 0:02:27Now, all our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Our contestants need to find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34Now, everyone's looking to find a pointless answer which none of our 100 people gave.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37And each time that happens, we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Richard and Tom didn't win the jackpot last time,
0:02:39 > 0:02:41so we add another £1,000 to that.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44So today's jackpot starts off at £5,000.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47APPLAUSE
0:02:47 > 0:02:50Right. If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59OK. In this first round, I'll take an answer from each of you but there's no conferring.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02The highest-scoring pair at the end of the round will be eliminated,
0:03:02 > 0:03:05so try and make sure that's not you, if you can.
0:03:05 > 0:03:06OK. Our first category today is...
0:03:09 > 0:03:13Music. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21OK. And the question concerns...
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Cover versions of UK top 40 hits. Richard.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30On each pass, we're going to show you seven pairs of acts.
0:03:30 > 0:03:35Now, these acts have both had hits with the same song on the UK chart.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Just have to tell us which song they have in common.
0:03:37 > 0:03:42Give us a nice obscure answer, you'll score fewer points. Incorrect answer, as always, 100 points.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44There's going to be 14 to have a go at at home - 14 pairs.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Which hits do they share? Very best of luck.
0:03:47 > 0:03:48Good question. OK.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52So we are looking for UK top 40 hits that each pair of artists had.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54And our first board reads like this.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Just read that board one more time.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29There we are. Now then, Delia.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Delia, welcome back to the show. You were on last time, of course.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34- Yes.- Tell us what happened.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Erm, we got to the head-to-head
0:04:36 > 0:04:40and we went out on a question on Mary Poppins facts.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45- And we were very, very close.- Yeah. You were very, very close indeed.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48So have you got a new game plan today?
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Yeah, I'm doing all the decisions. I'm not leaving anything to Mark.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53SHE LAUGHS
0:04:53 > 0:04:55So now then, Delia.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57How do you like this board?
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Erm...
0:04:59 > 0:05:03I have an idea on some of them
0:05:03 > 0:05:06but I'm not sure if I've got the right titles for the songs.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09I can sing them in my head but I don't know if that's the title or not.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11- Just in your head?- Yes.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17The Nancy Sinatra and Jessica Simpson
0:05:17 > 0:05:20with These Boots Are Made For Walking.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23These Boots Are Made For Walking, says Delia. These Boots Are Made For Walking.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27Let's see if that's right. If it is, let's see how many people knew that answer.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Absolutely right.
0:05:34 > 0:05:3718. That looks pretty good to me, Delia.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43- Well played, Delia. They're going to be strong again, aren't they?- Yeah.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47Nancy Sinatra had a hit in 1966 and Jessica Simpson in 2005
0:05:47 > 0:05:50- from the film Dukes Of Hazzard. - Very good.
0:05:50 > 0:05:51Now then, Connie.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53- Welcome back to the show.- Hello.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Now, tell us what happened with you last time.
0:05:55 > 0:06:00Erm, the first round was literature, which is not really our category is it? So... Erm...
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- You had Tom's Choice. - It was Tom's Choice.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05It was Tom's Choice, which was Rob's choice, to be fair.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07I can't hold you accountable for that.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10But, yes. Remind us what you do, Connie.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- I'm an assistant psychologist. - An assistant psychologist.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16OK. Erm...
0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Do you like music?- I do. - Do you follow the Hit Parade?
0:06:19 > 0:06:21I do, I do.
0:06:21 > 0:06:22Erm, I think I know two.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24I feel like I should know more
0:06:24 > 0:06:26but they're not coming to me. Erm...
0:06:26 > 0:06:29- They're quite hard, actually.- So...
0:06:29 > 0:06:31I'm trying to toss up which one might be lowest,
0:06:31 > 0:06:34but I think I'm going to go for
0:06:34 > 0:06:36the Weather Girls and Geri Halliwell
0:06:36 > 0:06:38with It's Raining Men.
0:06:38 > 0:06:39It's Raining Men, says Connie.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said It's Raining Men.
0:06:46 > 0:06:47Absolutely right.
0:06:49 > 0:06:5149.
0:06:55 > 0:07:00The Weather Girls had a hit with that over 30 years ago, that was.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Can you imagine? And Geri Halliwell's was 2001
0:07:03 > 0:07:05from the film Bridget Jones's Diary.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- Even that's more than ten years ago. - Wow. Yes. Wow.- Yeah.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12Tom. Welcome to the show, Tom.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Now, where are you from?
0:07:14 > 0:07:16- West London. - West London. And what do you do?
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Recruitment and HR manager.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Very good. What do you get up to in your spare time, Tom?
0:07:21 > 0:07:27- Football, lots of sports, and then just the usual going out on the weekend with friends.- Excellent.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Very good indeed. Music?
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- Very weak.- Really?- Yeah.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34The only one I knew was It's Raining Men.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37So I'm going to have to take a guess.
0:07:37 > 0:07:42I'm going to go with the Pretenders and Girls Aloud and Walk On By.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Walk On By, says Tom, for the Pretenders, Girls Aloud.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said it, if it is.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Bad luck, Tom. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57That scores you the maximum of 100 points. I'm sorry.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Yeah. Not a hit for either of them, I'm afraid.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Dionne Warwick and various others have released it.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the pass. - Now then. Heather.
0:08:04 > 0:08:09- Hello.- Heather. Welcome to the show. - Hello.- You're from Leicester.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- Yeah.- What do you up in Leicester? - I'm a dog walker.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15- Are you?- Yes. - How long have you walked dogs?
0:08:15 > 0:08:16Erm, about a year.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Now then. This board is all yours.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20You can fill in all the gaps for us.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24Erm, OK. The top one, I think it's called Tainted Love.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27I don't know the next one.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30The Pretenders and Girls Aloud - I know the tune,
0:08:30 > 0:08:32and it's either called Jump
0:08:32 > 0:08:33or Jump For My Love
0:08:33 > 0:08:35but I don't know which one. And the last one
0:08:35 > 0:08:37is Unchained Melody,
0:08:37 > 0:08:40but I think that's probably going to be really, really high.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43So I'm going to go for the top one, which is Tainted Love, fingers crossed.
0:08:43 > 0:08:47Tainted Love, you're saying. Fingers crossed. Soft Cell, Marilyn Manson.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Let's see if Tainted Love is right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:08:51 > 0:08:52Absolutely right.
0:08:55 > 0:08:56Oh, 32.
0:09:00 > 0:09:0232. Not bad at all, Heather.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Good answer, Heather. Soft Cell having a number one hit with that.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09Actually, it scores more than the other one you knew, Unchained Melody,
0:09:09 > 0:09:12which is The Righteous Brothers and Robson Green. That would've scored 30. Amazingly.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15The Pretenders and Girls Aloud. It wasn't Walk On By.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18They did do Walk This Way together with the Sugababes,
0:09:18 > 0:09:21but not Walk On By. This was I'll Stand By You.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Eight points. Sheryl Crow did a cover version
0:09:24 > 0:09:27of the Guns 'N' Roses' Sweet Child O' Mine. Five points.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30The best answer up there would have scored you three points.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Dusty Springfield and The White Stripes both had a hit with
0:09:32 > 0:09:35I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself, the Bacharach and David song.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38Three points. Well done if you said that.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Thanks. We're halfway through the round.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Let's take a look at our scores. Well, Delia.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Very well done indeed. Thank you.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47Very well done. See, it pays sometimes to be on that first desk.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49You get first dibs on that board.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52And there we are. There's your score to show for it. 18. Well done.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Then up to 32, where we find Heather and Fergus.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Up to 49, where we find Connie and Rob,
0:09:56 > 0:09:58And then, I'm sorry, Tom and Krish.
0:09:58 > 0:10:03100. Luckily, Krish, you're going to be brilliant on this next board. We have to hope
0:10:03 > 0:10:05that's enough to see you through to the next round. Best of luck.
0:10:05 > 0:10:10Let's come back down the line now. Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:10:11 > 0:10:15OK. So we're going to put seven more pairs of artists on the board. And here they are. We've got...
0:10:29 > 0:10:31I'll read those all one last time.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Now remember, we are looking for the UK top 40 hits
0:10:47 > 0:10:49that these pairs of artists shared.
0:10:49 > 0:10:53Obviously, Fergus, you're going to try and find the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56- Now, Fergus.- Yes.- You are from Nottingham.- Yes, indeed.
0:10:56 > 0:11:01What... I can hear, even just from "yes indeed," you're not actually originally from Nottingham.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03- No, not really. From Edinburgh. - From Edinburgh.- Yeah.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05- How long have you lived in Nottingham?- 30 years.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08- Ooh, you've kept that accent well. - Och, you've got to do it.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10It's box fresh.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Fantastic. What do you do, Fergus?
0:11:12 > 0:11:15I work for a large health and beauty retailer.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Very good. What do you get up to in your spare time?
0:11:17 > 0:11:20I like photography. I like kind of walking, reading.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- That sort of thing. - Very good indeed.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24- Listening to music? - Yes, a bit of that.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Taking notes of people who've covered songs?
0:11:26 > 0:11:29- Er, wish I'd done better at that. - Yeah.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Tell you what, you get first pick of the board, which is helpful, I think.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35Yes. Erm, I've had a look, and it's one of these ones where
0:11:35 > 0:11:38I'm sort of half not sure,
0:11:38 > 0:11:40but the one I do know unfortunately is the top one,
0:11:40 > 0:11:44which I think will be quite popular. Which is Wonderwall.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Wonderwall. OK, well, let's find out.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49There is your red line. If you get through that red line
0:11:49 > 0:11:51you are through to the next round. You're on 32.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53The high scorers are Krish and Tom on 100.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55So 67 or less will do it for you.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59Let's see if Wonderwall's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02It is right.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04And you're through to the next round. Very well done.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Ooh, look at that. 22!
0:12:09 > 0:12:12Only four up from our lowest score so far.
0:12:12 > 0:12:1454 is your total, Fergus.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18Good score, Fergus. Written by Noel Gallagher and sung by Liam Gallagher
0:12:18 > 0:12:20and Beady Eye at the 2012 Olympics.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24And Mike Flowers Pops did a sort of cheesy easy-listening version of it.
0:12:24 > 0:12:25Hmm. Very good.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Now then, Krish. You're housemates.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30For how long have you been housemates?
0:12:30 > 0:12:32- About a year now, for my sins. - About a year.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35- How long have you known each other? - About seven years, in fact.- Right.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38We did our placement year together at university.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40OK. Where were you at uni?
0:12:40 > 0:12:43I went to Sheffield, but we did our placement years in Reading.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Right you are, I see, I see. What do you do, Krish?
0:12:45 > 0:12:49I am an account manager at a recruitment company as well.
0:12:49 > 0:12:50Right you are. OK.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52And in your spare time, what are your hobbies?
0:12:52 > 0:12:56- I enjoy travelling and playing sport as well, when I can.- Very good.
0:12:56 > 0:13:02Very good. OK, well, listen. You're high scorers. I'm afraid you inherit from Tom quite a big score there.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05100. However, it's a new board.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07What do you make of it?
0:13:08 > 0:13:12I know a couple. Annoyingly, that was the one I was going to go for,
0:13:12 > 0:13:14as I thought it'd be relatively low.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17I think I'm going to try and go for damage limitation now
0:13:17 > 0:13:19and hope one of the other guys don't know an answer.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22I'm going to go for Bee Gees and Steps and Tragedy.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Tragedy. OK. Tragedy, says Krish.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Let's see if it's right, and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said it.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31There's no red line for you, as you're the high scorers.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34Well, it's right.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Down it goes...31.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43131 your total. You are still in the game, Krish.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Well done, Krish. Yeah, number one single for both of those acts, Steps and the Bee Gees.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Now then. Rob.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Rob. Welcome back.
0:13:52 > 0:13:57Yes, it was Tom's Choice from you that saw you out in round one last time.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00You've been thrown a bit of a lifeline by Tom's answer in the first pass.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03You could still go out if you get this wrong,
0:14:03 > 0:14:05but you're on 49, they're on 131.
0:14:05 > 0:14:09If you can score 81 or less, you are through. How are you feeling about this?
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Erm, a couple of the ones I knew have been taken away.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16Erm, Oasis are my favourite band, so it's a shame that one got taken.
0:14:16 > 0:14:17But I do know one more.
0:14:17 > 0:14:22I'm going to go for Don McLean and Madonna and American Pie.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24American Pie, says Rob. American Pie.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Here's your red line coming in.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28Below that, you're in round two.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30American Pie. How many people said that?
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Very well done. You are through to round two.
0:14:37 > 0:14:4040 is your score, 89 your total.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46- That feels better than the last time, Rob, doesn't it? - It certainly does, yeah.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50Yeah, American Pie. I think that might be just about the best pop song ever written.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54- It's a great song.- I'm talking about Don McLean's version, obviously. - Yeah.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57So we come to you, Mark. The good news is,
0:14:57 > 0:15:01whatever you score, you are through to the next round because you're only on 18.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04The high scorers are more than 100 points ahead of you.
0:15:04 > 0:15:05The board is yours.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07Do you want to fill in the blanks?
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Well, the three that I definitely knew have all gone.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13I don't know what the Shirley Bassey and Tom Jones one is.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17The only Nina Simone one I know is My Baby Just Cares For Me
0:15:17 > 0:15:20but I don't know if Muse did a cover version of that.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24I can't remember what the name of the Harold Faltermeyer, Crazy Frog one is.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28So I'm going to have to go with Nilsson, Mariah Carey,
0:15:28 > 0:15:30and I think it's Without You.
0:15:30 > 0:15:31Without You, says Mark. Without You.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37No red line for the nice reason that you're already through.
0:15:39 > 0:15:40Absolutely right.
0:15:45 > 0:15:4617.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Takes your total up to 35.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Our lowest total by quite a way.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Originally written by the British band Badfinger
0:15:57 > 0:15:59but both those acts had a hit with it.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Take a look through the rest of this board.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04Um, Harold Faltermeyer and Crazy Frog both had a hit with
0:16:04 > 0:16:07the theme to Beverly Hills Cop, which is Axel F.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10One of the catchiest songs you'll ever hear. 10 points.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13This next one, Muse's cover version of this song,
0:16:13 > 0:16:18the NME readership voted it the best cover version of all time in 2010.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Number three was Johnny Cash's version of Hurt, by Nine Inch Nails.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Number two was the Beatles, Twist and Shout.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27- And number one was Muse's version of...- Feeling Good.- Feeling Good.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30Absolutely right. Would have scored you four points.
0:16:30 > 0:16:31Now, Shirley Bassey and Tom Jones,
0:16:31 > 0:16:35the song they both had a hit with was I (Who Have Nothing).
0:16:35 > 0:16:37That's the best answer up there as well. One point.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Very good indeed. Thank you, Richard.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43So, at the end of our first round, the pair who'll be leaving us, with their high score of 131,
0:16:43 > 0:16:46I'm afraid, Krish and Tom, it is you.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49Yeah, it was that Pretenders, Girls Aloud answer, Tom,
0:16:49 > 0:16:50that did for you.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54So we have to say goodbye to you now. But we'll see you again next time.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58We'll look forward to that very much indeed. Krish and Tom. Thanks very much for playing.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10Well, sadly, at the end of this round we'll be saying goodbye to yet another pair.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13Wonder which pair it'll be. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15Our category for round two is...
0:17:17 > 0:17:19British Politics. Can you all decide in your pairs
0:17:19 > 0:17:21who's going to go first and second.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29OK. And the question concerns...
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Leaders of the Opposition. Richard.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38Yes. In a moment, Xander's going to show you a list of five UK Prime Ministers.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41We need you to tell us anybody who was the Leader of the Opposition
0:17:41 > 0:17:43when any of these Prime Ministers was in power.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46So any Leaders of the Opposition when any of these Prime Ministers were in power.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48- Very best of luck.- OK.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51As Richard mentioned, I'm going to put up the names of five British Prime Ministers
0:17:51 > 0:17:54up on the board. They will remain on the board throughout the round,
0:17:54 > 0:17:59up and down the line. You just have to name any Leader of the Opposition while they were in power.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01OK. And here are the five Prime Ministers.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10I'll read those a second time.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15There we are.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Now then, Delia.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- How do we feel about this? - Not good at all.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23This was one of my weaker subjects, UK politics.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27So I'm just going to have to name a politician
0:18:27 > 0:18:32that might have been Leader of the Opposition at the time.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34So I'm going to go for William Hague.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36William Hague, says Delia. William Hague.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43It's right.
0:18:47 > 0:18:4821.
0:18:52 > 0:18:5421 for William Hague.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58Well played, Delia. He was Tony Blair's opposition from 97 to 2001.
0:18:58 > 0:18:59Thanks, Richard. Now then, Connie.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01- Hello. - Now, how are we feeling about this?
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Erm, this is not my strong subject whatsoever.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07I'm going to have to take a random kind of guess.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09I'm going to have to say John Major.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12John Major, says Connie. Let's see if John Major's right,
0:19:12 > 0:19:15and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 said John Major.
0:19:17 > 0:19:18Ooh, it's right!
0:19:22 > 0:19:26Down it goes. 14 for John Major. Very well done, Connie.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28APPLAUSE
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Well done, Connie. John Major. He was only Leader of the Opposition
0:19:33 > 0:19:36for about six weeks after losing the election to Tony Blair.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Now then, Fergus.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45- I'm going to go for Michael Howard. - Michael Howard, says Fergus. Let's see if that's right,
0:19:45 > 0:19:48and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Michael Howard.
0:19:50 > 0:19:51Absolutely right.
0:19:53 > 0:19:5514 our best score so far...
0:19:55 > 0:19:58Ooh, smashed through that!
0:19:58 > 0:19:59- APPLAUSE - Five.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Five for Michael Howard.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06Well played, Fergus, that's a terrific answer.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09That's three opposition leaders to Tony Blair we've had in the first pass.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Thanks, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16Let's take a look at the scores as they stand. Five, very much the best score of that pass.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20Fergus, very well done. Heather, that puts you in a pretty nice position
0:20:20 > 0:20:21for the next bit of the game.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Connie and Rob on 14, then up to 21
0:20:24 > 0:20:26where we find Delia and Mark.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29So yes, Mark, a little bit of pressure on you. Best of luck with that.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33We'll come back down the line now. Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:20:36 > 0:20:39OK, now, Heather. How are you feeling about this, Heather?
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Better now that my Dad got five.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Still not very confident.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46- OK.- I've got, like, two names in my head.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49I don't even know if either of them are right.
0:20:49 > 0:20:50I'm going to go for Tony Benn.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Tony Benn, says Heather.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55Well, the high scorers on 21 are Mark and Delia.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57You're on five. If you can score 15 or less,
0:20:57 > 0:21:00you will avoid becoming our new high scorers.
0:21:00 > 0:21:01There's your red line.
0:21:03 > 0:21:04Tony Benn, though. Is that right?
0:21:06 > 0:21:09Oooh! Bad luck, Heather. Bad luck.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer scoring you 100 points,
0:21:12 > 0:21:14and that takes your total up to 105.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17Sorry. Many times he felt like the Leader of the Opposition,
0:21:17 > 0:21:20but he was never even leader of the Labour Party, I'm afraid.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23Now then, Rob. That's thrown you a bit of a lifeline there.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26- How are you feeling about this, Rob? - Terrible.- Really?
0:21:26 > 0:21:30- Possibly one of the worst categories you could have picked.- Really?- Yeah.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Listen, the high scorers are Heather and Fergus on 105.
0:21:33 > 0:21:38You're on 40. If you can score 90 or less, you are through to the next round.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41- Well, I'm going to go with David Cameron.- OK.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44You're going to go with David Cameron. There is your red line.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48If you get below that red line with David Cameron, you're through to the next round,
0:21:48 > 0:21:51to the head-to-head. Let's see. David Cameron. How many people said that?
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Absolutely right, yup, and you are through.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00Nine for David Cameron.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04Well done, Rob. Takes your total up to 23.
0:22:04 > 0:22:08Well done, Rob. David Cameron just overlapped with
0:22:08 > 0:22:10the end of Blair's Prime Ministership.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11Now, then. Mark.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Here we go.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Now, our high scorers at the moment are Heather and Fergus on 105.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20You're on 21. You need to be scoring 83 or less.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22So can you name anyone who was Leader of the Opposition
0:22:22 > 0:22:25when any of these Prime Ministers were in power?
0:22:25 > 0:22:28Well, if I thought we were definitely through, I'd take a risk and maybe
0:22:28 > 0:22:32say Dennis Healey or Jim Callaghan for Margaret Thatcher.
0:22:32 > 0:22:36But I'm going to play it safe and I'm going to go for Iain Duncan Smith.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38Iain Duncan Smith, says Mark. Iain Duncan Smith.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40There is your red line.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43Below that, you're in the head-to-head. Let's see if it's right.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46Let's see how many people said Iain Duncan Smith.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51And you're through to the next round.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Down it goes. 17. Very well done.
0:22:57 > 0:22:5917 takes your total up to 38.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02There's a guy who can operate under pressure. Very well done.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Even got four points better than Delia, as well.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08- There you go.- It's instructive.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Yeah, Tony Blair had five Leaders of the Opposition, and we've heard all five of them,
0:23:12 > 0:23:13and one incorrect answer.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15There's one pointless answer,
0:23:15 > 0:23:18which is one of the opposition leaders to William Gladstone
0:23:18 > 0:23:20was the Marquess of Salisbury.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Hugh Gaitskell was opposition leader to Harold Macmillan.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25Would have scored you one. Michael Howard there with five.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28Other answers. Gladstone, you could have had Benjamin Disraeli -
0:23:28 > 0:23:31would have scored you six points. We've had all the Tony Blair ones.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35For Margaret Thatcher there were three. Jim Callaghan would have scored you eight.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Michael Foot would have scored you 14. Neil Kinnock, of course, would have scored you 28.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41And for Edward Heath and Harold Macmillan,
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Harold Wilson would have scored you 30 points.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49So, at the end of our second round, our losing pair with a high score of 105,
0:23:49 > 0:23:52it's Heather and Fergus, I'm afraid.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Oh, dear. I'm sorry.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Yes, I mean, did you know any answers on that at the end?
0:23:57 > 0:24:01- That you...- After I said it, I thought, "I should have said David Cameron."
0:24:01 > 0:24:05- But...too late now.- Oh, well. Listen, we'll see you again next time.
0:24:05 > 0:24:10We'll look forward to that very much indeed. Meantime, thanks very much for playing. Heather and Fergus.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12APPLAUSE
0:24:12 > 0:24:16But for our remaining two pairs, things are about to get even more exciting now
0:24:16 > 0:24:18as we enter the head-to-head.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Congratulations, Delia, Mark, Rob and Connie.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28You are now only one round away from the final
0:24:28 > 0:24:31and a chance to play for the jackpot, which currently stands at £5,000.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33AUDIENCE: Ooh!
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Obviously only one pair can play for that money.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40To decide which pair it's going to be, you're now going to go head-to-head.
0:24:40 > 0:24:41This time you're allowed to confer.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47- Now then, Delia and Mark. We've been here before.- Mm-hm, yeah.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50We have been here before, but this time you are the lowest-scoring pair,
0:24:50 > 0:24:52which means you get to go first.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54Who's in charge now?
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Well, I know we can confer,
0:24:56 > 0:24:58but I'll be in charge.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00- You're going to remain in charge? OK.- Yes.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03- You'll have the casting vote then, will you?- Yes.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14OK, here's your first question and it concerns...
0:25:17 > 0:25:19Railway stations of the world, Richard.
0:25:19 > 0:25:23Mmm. We're going to show you five pictures now from inside famous railway stations.
0:25:23 > 0:25:27We need you to tell us in which city is each located. Good luck.
0:25:27 > 0:25:31OK. Let's reveal our five railway stations of the world. And here they are.
0:25:31 > 0:25:32We have got...
0:25:48 > 0:25:52There we are. Five famous international railway stations.
0:25:52 > 0:25:56Delia and Mark, you get to go first because you played best throughout the show so far.
0:25:56 > 0:26:00(Want to go for A? Shall we just go for the one that we know?)
0:26:00 > 0:26:04OK. Erm, we're not really too sure about most of them,
0:26:04 > 0:26:07so we're just going to go for the one that we think's obvious.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09Which is D, New York.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12OK. D, New York, say Delia and Mark.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16Rob and Connie, you can talk us through all the others if you like.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20- Erm...I think...- I don't know. - A is London,
0:26:20 > 0:26:23- cos it looks like the new St- Pancreas.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27I'm not sure about any of the others. E could be Singapore or Tokyo.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29It looks quite futuristic.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31We'll go A, London.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33A, London.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36We have London and we have New York.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40Delia and Mark said New York. Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said New York.
0:26:43 > 0:26:44It's right.
0:26:48 > 0:26:4923.
0:26:54 > 0:26:5623. Now then, Rob and Connie, you've said London.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59- You said it might be St- Pancreas - in London. - AUDIENCE LAUGHS
0:26:59 > 0:27:01- You know what I meant. - Let's see if it's right.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04And if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said London.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10- Oh, yeah.- Well, it's right. 23's what you have to beat.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14And you've done it! 19, very well done.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16APPLAUSE
0:27:16 > 0:27:19Good call, Rob and Connie. After one question you are up 1-0.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23Well played, Rob. You stuck to your guns there as well and you were right to do so.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25It's St Pancras in London.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27Now, B is Moscow.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30That would've scored you 10 points.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34C, the whole of this city's subway is carved into solid rock.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37And it has frescos and cave paintings on the ceilings.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41They call it the longest art gallery in the world, and it's in Stockholm.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45It would've scored you one point, a terrific answer. But even better answer, the last answer.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48You're not a million miles away with Singapore and Tokyo.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51It's very futuristic and it's in Dubai.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54A pointless answer. Well done if you said that at home.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57Thanks very much indeed, Richard. OK, here comes your second question.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00Delia and Mark, you have to win this one to stay in the game.
0:28:00 > 0:28:01It concerns...
0:28:04 > 0:28:06'Carry On' performers. Richard.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09We're going to show you five names of regular Carry On performers now,
0:28:09 > 0:28:10but in anagram form.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13Can you unscramble these and give us the most obscure?
0:28:13 > 0:28:14Thank you, Richard.
0:28:14 > 0:28:19OK, let's reveal our five Carry On performers in anagram form. And here they are.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28I'll read those all one last time.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37Now then. Rob and Connie, you go first this time.
0:28:37 > 0:28:39Not the best for us.
0:28:39 > 0:28:41We're going to have to go with hopefully the safe one.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44That's the middle one, Betroth True Twerp,
0:28:44 > 0:28:46which is Barbara Windsor.
0:28:46 > 0:28:50Barbara Windsor. Betroth True Twerp.
0:28:50 > 0:28:51BOTH: Oh.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53Ah. Oh well.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55Barbara Windsor we have to take.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58That's the one you've submitted for Betroth True Twerp.
0:28:58 > 0:29:03Delia and Mark. Talk us through the board, if you can.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06Well, we think Barbarian Sword's Barbara Windsor.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09The only other one I can make out is Jim Dale.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12And I thought the bottom one is Kenneth Williams.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16Which of those would you like to go for?
0:29:16 > 0:29:19We're going to go with the Jim Dale.
0:29:19 > 0:29:22Jim Dale, you're going to go. Idle Jam, Jim Dale.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24So we have Barbara Windsor and Jim Dale.
0:29:24 > 0:29:28But Rob and Connie are going for Barbara Windsor, Betroth True Twerp.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30So, let's see if that's right.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36Not so much. No, not so much.
0:29:36 > 0:29:39Now then. Delia and Mark have said Jim Dale for Idle Jam.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42Let's see if that's right. All it has to be at this stage is right.
0:29:43 > 0:29:45And obviously it is.
0:29:48 > 0:29:5033.
0:29:52 > 0:29:55Very well done. You're back in the game, Delia and Mark.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58After two questions, it's 1-1. Richard.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02Sorry, Rob and Connie. But very classy of Delia and Mark not to nick your answer
0:30:02 > 0:30:03for Barbarian Sword.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06And Barbarian Sword of course is Barbara Windsor.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09- Would have scored you 65 points. - That's OK then.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12Delia, you're right about Link With Enamels. It's Kenneth Williams.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14Would have scored you 26.
0:30:14 > 0:30:17Join Mass is Joan Sims.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19Would have scored you 14.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21And Betroth True Twerp is the best answer on the board.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23It was Peter Butterworth.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26Very well done if you said that. Terrific answer.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28Thank you, Richard. OK.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31It comes down to a decider, a third question.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33- DELIA LAUGHS - Best of luck to both of you.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35Our third question concerns...
0:30:38 > 0:30:40Harry Redknapp, Richard.
0:30:40 > 0:30:43Yeah. From railway stations to Harry Redknapp. How about that?
0:30:43 > 0:30:47You can't say we don't test you. We're going to show you five clues now to facts about Harry Redknapp.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50Can you give us the most obscure answer? Very best of luck, both teams.
0:30:50 > 0:30:54OK. Thanks very much. Let's reveal our five clues to facts about Harry Redknapp.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56And here they come. We have got...
0:31:07 > 0:31:09I'll read those one last time.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22There we are. Five clues to facts about Harry Redknapp.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25Now then, Delia and Mark, you go first this time.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29I only know Jamie, so...
0:31:29 > 0:31:33- Same as last time?- Yes. Yes, go for it. Go on.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35We're not 100% sure,
0:31:35 > 0:31:38but we're going to take another chance
0:31:38 > 0:31:41at the team of which he was appointed manager in 2004.
0:31:41 > 0:31:43And say Portsmouth.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45Portsmouth, you are going to say. Delia and Mark say Portsmouth.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47Rob and Connie.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49I'd rather go for the bottom one.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52- Do you know they year?- Talk us through the board, if you like.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55It's pretty much up to Rob cos... Well, I know one,
0:31:55 > 0:31:58but we think it's probably going to be highest, Jamie Redknapp,
0:31:58 > 0:32:01for his son. Rob, do you know any others?
0:32:01 > 0:32:05Let's see. I know, as soon as all the answers are revealed,
0:32:05 > 0:32:09- I will know.- Yes, I find I know quite a lot of those then. - AUDIENCE LAUGHS
0:32:09 > 0:32:12Erm, I'm trying desperately to seek who he was assistant to.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14I can see him sat on the bench at West Ham.
0:32:14 > 0:32:17But because they've taken a risk,
0:32:17 > 0:32:22so I'm not, you know. We're going to go for Jamie Redknapp.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25Jamie Redknapp, say Rob and Connie.
0:32:25 > 0:32:28Jamie Redknapp, the name of his son who played for Liverpool.
0:32:28 > 0:32:31So, Delia and Mark said Portsmouth.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33Is this a complete stab in the dark?
0:32:33 > 0:32:35Or was this an informed choice?
0:32:35 > 0:32:37Is it informed?
0:32:37 > 0:32:39- Well, it's just... - LAUGHS
0:32:39 > 0:32:42It's something that I think he did manage that team, but I'm not...
0:32:42 > 0:32:45- It's a place, and they have a football team. - DELIA LAUGHS
0:32:45 > 0:32:47Delia and Mark have said Portsmouth.
0:32:47 > 0:32:50Let's see if it's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said Portsmouth.
0:32:52 > 0:32:55Oooh! Bad luck. Bad luck, Delia and Mark.
0:32:55 > 0:32:59Which means, Rob and Connie, you merely have to be correct with Jamie Redknapp.
0:32:59 > 0:33:02Jamie Redknapp, name of his son who played for Liverpool.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05Jamie. Is it right, and how many people said it?
0:33:07 > 0:33:08Yup, you've done it.
0:33:10 > 0:33:13- 54. - APPLAUSE
0:33:13 > 0:33:15Very well done, Rob and Connie.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18That means, after three questions, you are through to the final 2-1.
0:33:18 > 0:33:22Great tactics from Rob again there, gambling on Mark giving a wrong answer there.
0:33:22 > 0:33:23That was really tough luck, Mark.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25Yeah, he was Portsmouth manager twice.
0:33:25 > 0:33:29He left them in 2004 to manage Southampton.
0:33:29 > 0:33:33Then left them again to manage Portsmouth again, which made him very popular on the south coast.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36Would have scored you six points. Would have seen you through to the final.
0:33:36 > 0:33:40The decade in which he was born. He was born in 1947. So the '40s.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Would have scored you 25.
0:33:42 > 0:33:44The manager he assisted at West Ham
0:33:44 > 0:33:46was the former player, Billy Bonds.
0:33:46 > 0:33:51Would have scored you nothing at all, so very well done if you said that. It's a pointless answer.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54And the year he started managing Tottenham Hotspur...
0:33:54 > 0:33:56was 2008.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00And that would have scored you nine points.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03So very well done if you said Billy Bonds. Best answer up there.
0:34:03 > 0:34:07Thank you, Richard. So our losing pair at the end of the head-to-head.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09I'm afraid it's Delia and Mark.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11Bad luck, bad luck.
0:34:11 > 0:34:13Well, it's your second time in the head-to-head.
0:34:13 > 0:34:16You've done incredibly well, both your Pointless appearances.
0:34:16 > 0:34:20Delia and Mark, I'm afraid we have to say goodbye. It was great having you on the show.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23- Thank you both so much for playing. - Thank you.- Thank you.
0:34:23 > 0:34:24APPLAUSE
0:34:24 > 0:34:28But for Rob and Connie it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33Congratulations, Rob and Connie.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36You have fought off all the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44- Yes! - ALL LAUGH
0:34:44 > 0:34:47You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £5,000.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52AUDIENCE: Ooh!
0:34:54 > 0:34:55Wow!
0:34:55 > 0:34:58Well, you've done pretty well. Quite consistent scoring today.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00Our two psychologists.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03- Yeah.- What are you thinking at the moment?
0:35:03 > 0:35:06- How are you feeling? - Please be good categories, that's what we're thinking.
0:35:06 > 0:35:11- I think give us a good question. - OK. What would you like? What would be a good question for you?
0:35:11 > 0:35:13- Football would be good. A music round.- Music.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17- Country... Geography, countries. - Yeah, those.- Right. OK.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20Remember, they're always quite specific in this last round.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22Best of luck. The rules are very simple.
0:35:22 > 0:35:25To win the money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28Do that, and you will go home with that £5,000 jackpot.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30First though, you've got to choose a category
0:35:30 > 0:35:33and here are those five options.
0:35:40 > 0:35:43- ROB SIGHS - It's a real Tom's Choice of a board, that, isn't it?
0:35:43 > 0:35:45Yeah.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47- I mean...- India? - Yeah, we'll go India.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49But let's have a little think first.
0:35:49 > 0:35:53We know nothing about darts. Playwrights would be really, really iffy.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55- Acid jazz?- What's acid jazz?- I don't even know what acid jazz is.
0:35:55 > 0:35:59- Erm...chemistry?- No, cos...- That'd be a real stab in the dark, now.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01Going to have to be India, isn't it?
0:36:01 > 0:36:04- Yeah.- Going to have to be. - Going to have to be India, unfortunately.- Yeah.
0:36:04 > 0:36:09OK. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:36:09 > 0:36:13to name as many states and union territories of India as they could.
0:36:13 > 0:36:18- Richard.- Yep. We're looking for any of the 28 states or seven union territories
0:36:18 > 0:36:21that make up India. Very, very best of luck.
0:36:21 > 0:36:25OK. You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:25 > 0:36:27All you need to win that jackpot of £5,000
0:36:27 > 0:36:30is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:30 > 0:36:31- Are you ready? - BOTH: Yes.
0:36:31 > 0:36:34Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:36:34 > 0:36:35There they are. Your time starts now.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38- Where'd you go? - I travelled to Himachal Pradesh.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41I don't know whether that's part of a territory or in itself or not.
0:36:41 > 0:36:45- Kerala.- Kerala.- Kerala.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47I don't know whether New Delhi's a state in itself,
0:36:47 > 0:36:50or whether that's just, like, the city.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52But Delhi's obviously in New Delhi.
0:36:52 > 0:36:57- Where did you... Where were you staying?- Himachal Pradesh. - Himachal Pradesh.- Himachal Pradesh.
0:36:57 > 0:37:01There's another Himachal or another Pradesh of some sort, but I can't think of the name.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03OK, so which two are we going to go for so far?
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Erm, so that's three, obviously.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07We've got New Delhi, Himachal Pradesh, Kerala.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10There's more down the bottom. I wish I could remember some of them.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13- Erm...think, think, think. - Did you go to visit anywhere, or...?
0:37:13 > 0:37:16There's obviously Goa but I can't think of what area Goa's in.
0:37:16 > 0:37:21There's Mumbai. I could name you cities but I can't think of what the states would be called.
0:37:21 > 0:37:24- Just reconfirm what the three are then.- Himachal Pradesh,
0:37:24 > 0:37:27- Kerala and New Delhi. - Ten seconds left.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31- We'll go with those three.- Yeah. - You happy with those?- Yeah. - Stop the clock.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33There we are. You've got three good answers.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35We were looking for states or union territories of India.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37What are your three answers going to be?
0:37:37 > 0:37:39- It's going to be New Delhi. - New Delhi.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41- Kerala.- Kerala.
0:37:41 > 0:37:44- And Himachal Pradesh. - And Himachal Pradesh.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46OK. Of those three, I think I know which one you'll put last
0:37:46 > 0:37:49as your most likely pointless answer.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52- Himachal Pradesh.- Himachal Pradesh. Good, there we are. We'll put that last.
0:37:52 > 0:37:57- What's your least likely?- New Delhi. - New Delhi.- Because I'm not sure if that's definitely a state or not.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00OK. Let's put those up on the board in that order. And here we are. We have got...
0:38:03 > 0:38:07OK. So we were looking for states and union territories of India.
0:38:07 > 0:38:11Your first answer, New Delhi, you thought was your least likely shot at a pointless answer.
0:38:11 > 0:38:15You only have to find one pointless answer in these to win that jackpot of £5,000. So let's see.
0:38:15 > 0:38:18How many people said New Delhi?
0:38:20 > 0:38:23- Ooh. Well, you weren't really sure about New Delhi.- No.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25That was holding a place there for you really.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27So, yes, we've got that out of the way.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30An incorrect answer, obviously not a pointless answer.
0:38:30 > 0:38:34- So only two more shots at that jackpot. But two pretty good shots, I'd say.- Hopefully.
0:38:34 > 0:38:36Two pretty good shots. Rob.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39That £5,000 jackpot.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42You might be quite close to it. What would you do with it?
0:38:42 > 0:38:44Erm, I've always wanted to go on an African safari,
0:38:44 > 0:38:47so I think it would go towards that cos...
0:38:47 > 0:38:50It's something... I'm a big traveller, so that'd be something I'd like to do.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Excellent. Connie, how about you?
0:38:52 > 0:38:56Yeah. I'd obviously go along with Rob. Maybe splash out on a bit more of a fancy hotel...
0:38:56 > 0:38:58- Yeah?- ..or something this time.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00But as well... My mum bought my car for me,
0:39:00 > 0:39:04so I might have to pay her some money back for that, perhaps.
0:39:04 > 0:39:08- Let's go on safari. - Or put it towards maybe going to visit Australia.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11- I've got family over there that I've never seen, so it'd be nice to... - Very nice.
0:39:11 > 0:39:15- Put it towards that.- Maybe a trip to India might be in order.
0:39:15 > 0:39:16Yeah, I could go back, yeah.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19OK. We are looking for states or union territories in India.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22Let's hope nobody said your next answer, Kerala.
0:39:22 > 0:39:25Again, this has to be correct and pointless for you to win that jackpot.
0:39:25 > 0:39:29So for £5,000, let's see how many people said Kerala.
0:39:30 > 0:39:32There we go. This is more like it.
0:39:32 > 0:39:36Now, New Delhi, as you feared, was an incorrect answer.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41Kerala, on the other hand, an absolutely correct answer.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43Down it goes. 10.
0:39:43 > 0:39:44APPLAUSE
0:39:49 > 0:39:50- 10.- Yeah.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54I know there's a lot of people in the UK who work here now who are from Kerala.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57- So I thought there might be a few people who would pick that up.- OK.
0:39:57 > 0:40:01- But 10's not a bad score.- It's OK. - Not a bad score. Almost into single figures.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03But we now come down to your best answer.
0:40:03 > 0:40:07The one you put last, your best shot at a pointless answer.
0:40:07 > 0:40:12We're looking for states or union territories of India. Your third and final answer was Himachal Pradesh.
0:40:12 > 0:40:16Again, this has to be right and it has to be pointless for you to win that £5,000 jackpot.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18But it could very easily be pointless.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21It's a great answer. At least, it sounds like a great answer.
0:40:21 > 0:40:22ROB AND CONNIE LAUGH
0:40:22 > 0:40:23Sounds good.
0:40:23 > 0:40:25Let's find out. Himachal Pradesh.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28Is it right? How many people said it?
0:40:32 > 0:40:33Well, it's right.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36New Delhi was not right.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38Kerala took us down to 10.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41Himachal Pradesh now into single figures.
0:40:41 > 0:40:43Down it goes... Still going down...
0:40:43 > 0:40:44Ooh!
0:40:44 > 0:40:45AUDIENCE: Aww!
0:40:45 > 0:40:48APPLAUSE
0:40:50 > 0:40:51Oh no. Oh, well.
0:40:55 > 0:40:59Oh, I'm so... That is agonising, isn't it? I'm so sorry.
0:40:59 > 0:41:01- I thought that was going all the way down.- No.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03Oh, well.
0:41:03 > 0:41:06- One person knew Himachal Pradesh. - Who is it?
0:41:06 > 0:41:10Unfortunately, I'm really sorry, you didn't find that all-important pointless answer.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12- Yeah.- Ooh, but you came close. - So close.
0:41:12 > 0:41:17I'm afraid, though, that means you don't win today's jackpot of £5,000, which rolls over onto our next show.
0:41:17 > 0:41:20But you have been fantastic contestants. You've done so well.
0:41:20 > 0:41:23Contributed a lot to this game. I'm afraid, yes, we have to say goodbye now.
0:41:23 > 0:41:27- But you do, of course, get to take home our Pointless trophy.- Yay. - So very well done.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29APPLAUSE
0:41:29 > 0:41:31- We had a good time.- Yeah.
0:41:35 > 0:41:38Yeah. Sorry, Rob and Connie. So close to getting the jackpot there.
0:41:38 > 0:41:42As you were saying, when you were talking, there was another Pradesh you were trying to think of.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45There's a Madhya Pradesh, which would have scored you one,
0:41:45 > 0:41:50but there's two pointless answers, one of which was Andhra Pradesh, and one of which was Arunachal Pradesh.
0:41:50 > 0:41:53- I don't remember them.- Let's look at some of the other pointless answers.
0:41:53 > 0:41:57See if you got any of these at home. And please excuse my pronunciation as I go through some of these.
0:41:57 > 0:42:01Arunachal Pradesh. Chandigarh was a pointless answer.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03Jharkhand was a pointless answer.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Karnataka was a pointless answer.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08Meghalaya was a pointless answer. Mizoram.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10Also well done if you said that.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12Nagaland, Tripura and Uttarakhand.
0:42:12 > 0:42:14All of those pointless answers.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17So very, very well done if you said any of those.
0:42:17 > 0:42:21And again, apologies for my pronunciation, which I'm assuming was dreadful.
0:42:21 > 0:42:22LAUGHTER
0:42:22 > 0:42:26Thank you very much. Unfortunately, we do have to say goodbye to you, Rob and Connie.
0:42:26 > 0:42:30- It's been great having you on the show. Thank you both so much for playing.- Thank you.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32APPLAUSE
0:42:33 > 0:42:35Rob and Connie didn't win our jackpot today,
0:42:35 > 0:42:38so it rolls over, which means on the next show we'll be playing
0:42:38 > 0:42:40for £6,000.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42AUDIENCE: Wooh!
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Join us next time. See if someone can win it.
0:42:44 > 0:42:46- Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
0:42:49 > 0:42:50APPLAUSE
