0:00:20 > 0:00:23APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:00:23 > 0:00:26Thank you. I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,

0:00:26 > 0:00:29the quiz show where the aim is to score as few points as you can.

0:00:29 > 0:00:34To do that, you need to come up with answers no one else can think of. Let's meet today's players.

0:00:34 > 0:00:37APPLAUSE

0:00:37 > 0:00:39Couple number one.

0:00:39 > 0:00:43Hi, I'm Mark. This is Martin. We've been mates for 12 years.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46We live in Leeds but are originally from Lancashire.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49- Couple number two.- I'm Christine. This is my friend Jacky.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52We've been friends since we were 10-years-old. We're from Cardiff.

0:00:52 > 0:00:57- Couple number three. - Hello, I'm Jane. This is my mum Kate. We come from Surrey.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00- And couple number four.- Hi, I'm Wayne. This is my brother Greg.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03And we come from Perthshire in Scotland.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05And these are today's contestants.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08APPLAUSE

0:01:08 > 0:01:12We'll find out more about you throughout the show as it goes along.

0:01:12 > 0:01:17There's one person to introduce. We've dumbed him down more than a GCSE but still can't understand him.

0:01:17 > 0:01:22- It's my Pointless friend Richard. - Hiya. Hi, everybody. Hiya.

0:01:25 > 0:01:29- That is very unfair, GCSEs are not dumbed down.- No.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32As a father of a daughter doing GCSEs, they do more work than we did

0:01:32 > 0:01:35through our O-levels.

0:01:35 > 0:01:38- Shows how old we are.- Doesn't it? - They are not dumbed down.

0:01:38 > 0:01:40WHISPERS: They are a bit dumbed down.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42LAUGHTER

0:01:42 > 0:01:45We had a brilliant show last time. A really high-quality show.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47We had Wayne and Greg on, who were terrific,

0:01:47 > 0:01:51to the extent they even got Miley Cyrus as an answer at one point.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54A couple of tough panel beaters from Scotland.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56We got a classic Pointless first round.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59You'll have to go at some to beat Greg and Wayne, everybody.

0:01:59 > 0:02:04Thank you very much, Richard. Our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08Our contestants need to find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11They try to find a pointless answer none of the 100 gave.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14Each time that happens, we add £250 to the jackpot.

0:02:14 > 0:02:18Kathy and Robert didn't win the jackpot, so we add £1,000.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21So today's jackpot starts off at £15,000.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23APPLAUSE

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Right, let's play Pointless.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36In this round, I'll take an answer from each of you but no conferring.

0:02:36 > 0:02:40The pair with the highest score is eliminated. Try to make sure that's not you.

0:02:40 > 0:02:44Our first category today is US states.

0:02:45 > 0:02:49It's US states. Decide who's going to go first, who's going to go second.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Whoever's going first, step up to the podium.

0:02:56 > 0:03:02OK. And the question concerns US states beginning with...

0:03:02 > 0:03:05US states beginning with dot, dot, dot. Richard?

0:03:05 > 0:03:07Xander will show you four letters of the alphabet,

0:03:07 > 0:03:12we need you to tell us any of the 50 US states that begin with one of those letters.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15Any US state that begins with the letters you are about to see.

0:03:15 > 0:03:19That information is correct as of September 2012.

0:03:19 > 0:03:24OK. Thank you, Richard. Let's reveal those four letters. Here they come.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27M, N, O, P.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30M, N, O, P.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33- There we are. Mark, a warm Pointless welcome.- Thank you.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37- What do you do, Mark?- I work in the very exciting world of logistics.

0:03:37 > 0:03:42- Whoa!- It's amazing.- Well, that gets the show going, doesn't it?

0:03:42 > 0:03:45- Good stuff. - It's really not very exciting.- OK.

0:03:45 > 0:03:50I'll take your word for it. I won't pursue it. What do you do in your spare time?

0:03:50 > 0:03:52I love playing golf, football.

0:03:52 > 0:03:56I have a little boy called Freddie, so I have a bit of family time.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Very good indeed. OK, Mark,

0:03:58 > 0:04:01M, N, O or P are your initial letters.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04OK. Right, I'm going to take O.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06And I'm going to say Oregon.

0:04:06 > 0:04:12Oregon, said Mark. Let's see if that's right and how many people said Oregon.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15It's absolutely right.

0:04:16 > 0:04:1956.

0:04:19 > 0:04:21APPLAUSE

0:04:22 > 0:04:26Big score, Mark, for Oregon. In the Pacific Northwest.

0:04:26 > 0:04:30- Portland the biggest city and Salem the capital.- Excellent.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32Thank you. Jacky.

0:04:32 > 0:04:36Welcome back. Remind us what you do, Jacky.

0:04:36 > 0:04:41I used to be a bingo caller. I gave it up to be a carer for my mum.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45Did you... When you were a bingo caller, did you ever make up...?

0:04:45 > 0:04:49- Two fat ladies, we know that. Did you make up...?- Don't get personal.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51LAUGHTER

0:04:51 > 0:04:55Why pick "two fat ladies"? Why not "two little ducks"?

0:04:57 > 0:05:03You're putting words into my mouth. That's just not fair. Did you ever make up your own thing?

0:05:03 > 0:05:06No. There is a strict criteria for that.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10Very important, or you'd be booted out of the bingo callers' circle.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12And that would be terrible.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15We have states beginning with M, N, O or P.

0:05:15 > 0:05:20- I'm going to say Philadelphia. - Philadelphia. Let's see if that's right.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23Let's see how many people said Philadelphia.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31Bad luck, Jacky. An incorrect answer scoring you the maximum of 100 points.

0:05:31 > 0:05:37- Sorry, Jacky. Philadelphia is not a state.- It's a great cheese.

0:05:37 > 0:05:41- It's a cheese, it's a city. - It's a film.- It's a film.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43But, yeah, not a state.

0:05:43 > 0:05:47It's so many things. It would be such a good answer for so many rounds.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50Round Two is soft cheeses.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52LAUGHTER

0:05:54 > 0:05:58- Now then, Jane, welcome to the show. - Thank you.- What do you do, Jane?

0:05:58 > 0:06:01I am a historian of medicine.

0:06:01 > 0:06:06- Wow!- Bit unusual.- It's extremely unusual. In what sort of capacity?

0:06:06 > 0:06:09- At the moment, I'm doing a research job.- Right.

0:06:09 > 0:06:15I have done a bit of teaching. But I only finished my PhD 18 months ago.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18- So I'm still new at it. - It's an academic pursuit?- Yes.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22- How many other historians of medicine are there? - A surprising number.

0:06:22 > 0:06:27- There's quite a lot of us.- That's what my daughter's doing at GCSE.

0:06:27 > 0:06:31- It is. Her history syllabus is the history of medicine.- It's popular.

0:06:31 > 0:06:35- It's a very popular subject at GCSE these days.- There we are. Very good.

0:06:35 > 0:06:39- What do you get up to in your spare time? - I like skiing when I get the chance.

0:06:39 > 0:06:45And I sometimes go rollerblading with my sister. It fits in with the skiing, gets the old legs ready

0:06:45 > 0:06:47- for the winter season. - Very good.

0:06:47 > 0:06:52Some rollerbladers like to pretend they're cars and rollerblade on the streets.

0:06:52 > 0:06:57- I don't go on the road, it's too scary.- I'm glad to hear it. - I like to go round Dulwich Park.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00- Very good. - I like to pretend I'm a car.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04- You could get away with it. - Don't you like to pretend you're a car?- You'd be a long vehicle.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06MAKES CAR NOISES

0:07:06 > 0:07:10- Come on, admit you like to pretend to be a car.- Not so much, no.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12MAKES SKIDDING NOISES

0:07:12 > 0:07:13LAUGHTER

0:07:13 > 0:07:18Anyway, Jane, any state beginning with M, N, O or P?

0:07:18 > 0:07:22- Zhhoop! Just putting my window up. - Oh, I see.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25That's good. Yeah, it was getting a bit draughty.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27Jane, what are you going to go for?

0:07:27 > 0:07:29I think Jacky's done me a favour,

0:07:29 > 0:07:34because I think I know what the right answer is that she meant to have said.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37I think Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania. I'm going to say Pennsylvania

0:07:37 > 0:07:41- because I couldn't think of one with P for ages, so hopefully.- OK.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Jane is going to say Pennsylvania.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Let's see how many people said Pennsylvania.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Absolutely right.

0:07:52 > 0:07:5448.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57Our lowest score so far, Jane.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59APPLAUSE

0:07:59 > 0:08:02Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania, I'm afraid, Jacky.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05Nearly 30% of Pennsylvanians have German ancestry.

0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Interesting. - Yeah.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11Anyway, Wayne, welcome to Pointless again.

0:08:11 > 0:08:16A fantastic performance last time. Tell us about the Head-To-Head.

0:08:16 > 0:08:21We were one-nil up on pictures of people on bikes.

0:08:21 > 0:08:27And it went down to anagrams of Shakespeare characters, which wasn't up our street.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30- You did pretty well.- I got a decent answer.- You did pretty well.

0:08:30 > 0:08:34We had Portia from you, didn't we? Also a very good car.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36LAUGHTER

0:08:36 > 0:08:40What are we thinking? You've had a bit of time to think of a very good

0:08:40 > 0:08:42low-scoring state beginning with M, N, O or P.

0:08:42 > 0:08:47Not great for me. Geography in general is not my strong point

0:08:47 > 0:08:50but we'll have a punt on Massachusetts with M.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53Massachusetts. Let's see if that's right.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55If it is, let's see how many people said it.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00Absolutely right. 48 our best score so far.

0:09:00 > 0:09:05Massachusetts goes down. Oh, look at that. The teens.

0:09:05 > 0:09:0818 for Massachusetts.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10APPLAUSE

0:09:10 > 0:09:14That's another good answer. Up in the north-east of America.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17One of the smallest states. Boston, of course, is in Massachusetts.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20We're halfway through the round. Let's look at the scores.

0:09:20 > 0:09:2418, as Wayne has just scored. Very much the best score of that part.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27Up to 48, Jane and Kate. Up to 56, Mark and Martin.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31Then, yes, Jacky and Christine a little bit ahead there on 100.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Anything can happen in the next part, so best of luck.

0:09:33 > 0:09:37Can the second players take their places at the podium?

0:09:40 > 0:09:44Now then, Greg. Greg, remind us what you do.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Um, I'm a panel beater. I work in the family business.

0:09:47 > 0:09:54- We refurbish lorries and commercial vehicles as well.- Very good indeed.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57What else do you get up to, Greg?

0:09:57 > 0:09:59I'm a very keen golfer in the summertime.

0:09:59 > 0:10:03Um, play a bit of football, I like watching football.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05Sports in general.

0:10:05 > 0:10:09In winter, um, I like to go down and have a game of darts with my mates.

0:10:09 > 0:10:14- Maybe a game of snooker. - Very good. How have you been preparing for Pointless?

0:10:14 > 0:10:17Just... Not really.

0:10:18 > 0:10:22There's not much you can do. Some people say they swot up.

0:10:22 > 0:10:27I was awful at revising at school. I couldn't put my mind to it. I'm not that way inclined.

0:10:27 > 0:10:32You're more than likely to go through on something you've read on the back of a cereal packet.

0:10:32 > 0:10:36than anything you swotted up on. We're looking for a state beginning with M, N, O or P.

0:10:36 > 0:10:42There's two or three but I'm worried that they're cities and not states.

0:10:42 > 0:10:46But I'm fairly certain that North Dakota is a state.

0:10:46 > 0:10:47North Dakota, says Greg.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50You're on 18. The high scorers on 100 are Christine and Jacky.

0:10:50 > 0:10:54If you can score 81 or less with North Dakota, you are through to Round Two.

0:10:54 > 0:10:59Here's your red line. If you get below that, you are in Round Two.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03You've done it.

0:11:05 > 0:11:0918, our best score so far. Ooh, look at that. 8. Very well done indeed.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11APPLAUSE

0:11:13 > 0:11:16- Your total is 26. - Good answer, Greg.

0:11:16 > 0:11:21Even on a subject they say is not one of their best, the best two answers we've had so far.

0:11:21 > 0:11:26Well done. North Dakota is bigger than England but it's home to only 700,000 people.

0:11:26 > 0:11:30- Wow!- Got 53 million people in England. North Dakota's 20,000 square miles bigger.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33Do they all huddle together or do they like to...?

0:11:33 > 0:11:36- Some of them huddle together. - Yeah.- Some of them are loners.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40- Yeah, I bet.- Some of them have formed into communities

0:11:40 > 0:11:43they call cities.

0:11:43 > 0:11:44How quaint.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46LAUGHTER

0:11:46 > 0:11:50- Kate, welcome to Pointless. - Thank you.- What do you do, Kate?

0:11:50 > 0:11:52I'm an independent market researcher.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55Quite right. You fight your own corner there, Kate.

0:11:55 > 0:12:00- An independent market researcher. - I work on a freelance basis. - Right. In what corner of the market?

0:12:00 > 0:12:05- In healthcare, pharmaceuticals.- So you can help Jane with her homework.

0:12:05 > 0:12:09Yes, potentially. Or she can help me.

0:12:09 > 0:12:14- Kate, what are you thinking?- I'm thinking this is not bad for me.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17I happened to have a little look through on the internet yesterday

0:12:17 > 0:12:20and this was actually one of the topics I looked at.

0:12:20 > 0:12:24- Very good. - So I've got a number of options.

0:12:24 > 0:12:29Um, I think I'm going to go with Maine.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31Maine. Maine, says Kate.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34You're on 48. The high scorers are Christine and Jacky on 100.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37If you can score 51 or less, you are in Round Two.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40There's your red line. Let's see how many people said Maine.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Absolutely right.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48And you've done it. Very well done indeed. 33 for Maine.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50APPLAUSE

0:12:50 > 0:12:5181, your total.

0:12:53 > 0:12:57Good answer. It's lovely when something you've revised comes up.

0:12:57 > 0:13:01Turn over that paper and you think, "Thank goodness." Crop rotation.

0:13:01 > 0:13:02LAUGHTER

0:13:02 > 0:13:06Very good. Now then, Christine.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08100 is your score.

0:13:08 > 0:13:12- Yeah.- You are out in front. It's between you and Martin.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16And Martin's got a head start. How are you feeling about this?

0:13:16 > 0:13:20I actually gave Jacky a list of capitals of states.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23- Well, that didn't help her. - Exactly.

0:13:23 > 0:13:24LAUGHTER

0:13:24 > 0:13:28If you gave her the list, did you look at it first?

0:13:28 > 0:13:31Yeah. And then I lost it.

0:13:31 > 0:13:35Ah. Yeah. So, Christine,

0:13:35 > 0:13:40- how are we feeling about this? - I think I can name a state. - Well, that's good.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42North Dakota was Greg's answer.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45Lovely low score of 8. That's the lowest score so far.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48- So, um...- I don't think mine will be as low.

0:13:48 > 0:13:53But I'm going for - I hope it's a state - Minnesota.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56Minnesota. Minnesota, says Christine. No red line for you

0:13:56 > 0:14:00as you are the highest scorers. Let's see how many said Minnesota.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03Absolutely right.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09Oh, it's a good answer. 28.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10APPLAUSE

0:14:10 > 0:14:15- 28 takes your total up to 128. - Still in with a shout. Well played.

0:14:15 > 0:14:21- A lot of Norwegians in Minnesota. - In Minnesota? Yeah, on holiday, yeah.

0:14:21 > 0:14:22LAUGHTER

0:14:22 > 0:14:27There's a strong Norsk contingent. A lot of names end in "qvist".

0:14:27 > 0:14:30- The Norwegian Minnesotans. - Yes.- Really worth a visit.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33- People never go to Minnesota, do they?- Not so much.

0:14:33 > 0:14:37When people say they've gone to America, they've gone to Miami.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40People don't go, "I'll tell you where I went - Wisconsin."

0:14:40 > 0:14:45- More fool them.- Can I just say, I have been to Minnesota.

0:14:45 > 0:14:49They've got the biggest, or they had the biggest mall at the time I was there.

0:14:49 > 0:14:53- A lot of Norwegians.- I thought they were Swedish.- Maybe they're Swedish.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55You may be right. I just thought.

0:14:55 > 0:14:59- Blondes. They were all blondes. - There you are.

0:14:59 > 0:15:03- If you like blondes.- If you like blondes, it's the place to go.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06- We should work for the Minnesotan tourist board.- We are.

0:15:06 > 0:15:10- Unwittingly. They've reeled us in. - Nice, innit?- Thank you, Richard.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13Now, Martin, it's all in your hands.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Will you stay or will you go?

0:15:16 > 0:15:19The high scorers, Christine and Jacky, on 128. You're on 56.

0:15:19 > 0:15:2471 or less will see you through. It has to be right and less than 71.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26- What do you do, Martin? - I'm an engineer.

0:15:26 > 0:15:30I work for a company that designs and builds water-treatment works and sewage works.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32Very good indeed.

0:15:32 > 0:15:33LAUGHTER

0:15:33 > 0:15:34Don't laugh.

0:15:34 > 0:15:39- Everybody needs them. - We do. At both ends.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41It's important.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44- What do you get up to in your spare time?- I have two little children.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46One's only four-weeks-old.

0:15:46 > 0:15:50That keeps me quite busy, changing nappies, all that kind of thing.

0:15:50 > 0:15:55- And I like watching sport and playing sport.- Very good indeed.

0:15:55 > 0:15:59Now then, any states beginning with M, N, O or P?

0:15:59 > 0:16:04I've had a long time to think but everyone keeps thinking the same answers I was thinking.

0:16:04 > 0:16:08I'm going to go with North Carolina.

0:16:08 > 0:16:13North Carolina. Very well done. North Carolina. Sounds like a good answer.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16There is your red line. Get below that, you're in Round Two.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18How many people said North Carolina?

0:16:20 > 0:16:23Absolutely right.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25And you are through. Very well done.

0:16:25 > 0:16:278 has been our lowest score so far.

0:16:27 > 0:16:3110. Second-lowest score of the round.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33Very well done. Takes your total to 66.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35APPLAUSE

0:16:35 > 0:16:39Well played, Martin. Pretty good round there, everybody.

0:16:39 > 0:16:45There's no pointless answers at all. There's only 50 states and 100 people know their stuff.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48The best answer anyone could have given is North Dakota.

0:16:48 > 0:16:51So very well done, a terrific answer there.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53The other best ones you could have had.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57I'll go through them because people would've tried to guess the answers.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00Montana, 14. New Mexico, 14.

0:17:00 > 0:17:05Oklahoma, 15. New Jersey, 16. Massachusetts we've had on 18.

0:17:05 > 0:17:09Michigan and Missouri both scored 25.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11Mississippi would have scored you 27.

0:17:11 > 0:17:15Minnesota, 28. Nevada, 29. Nebraska, 32.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18New York would have scored you 43, New York State.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20Let's look at the top three.

0:17:20 > 0:17:22The ones that most people said.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25Pennsylvania, the third highest on 48.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28Oregon we've heard as well, on 56.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32And the biggest of all, Ohio would have scored 64.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34It's quite often the vowels go first in those rounds.

0:17:34 > 0:17:38Yes. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.

0:17:38 > 0:17:43The end of our first round. The losing pair with a high score of 128, Christine and Jacky.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45Philadelphia saw you off, I'm afraid.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47Oh, dear.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50Did you have lots of other answers as well?

0:17:50 > 0:17:54- Ohio would have been mine.- You would have been in with a shout with that.

0:17:54 > 0:17:59It's been great having you on the show. Thanks for playing. Sorry you're leaving so soon.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Thank you.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06For the remaining pairs, time for Round Two.

0:18:11 > 0:18:14There's room for two pairs in our Head-To-Head Round.

0:18:14 > 0:18:17So one of the pairs will have to leave at the end of this round.

0:18:17 > 0:18:22Greg and Wayne. They're panel beaters and they're panel beaters.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25They're beating this panel, certainly. Fantastic performance.

0:18:25 > 0:18:29- Kate and Jane, how are you feeling? - OK.- You made it through Round One.

0:18:29 > 0:18:34- Mark and Martin, OK?- Yes. - Got our nerves settled.- Exactly.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36Best of luck to all three pairs.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39Our category for Round Two is Biopics.

0:18:39 > 0:18:44Biopics. Decide who is going to go first and who is going second.

0:18:44 > 0:18:48- Shall I go?- Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53OK. And the question concerns...

0:18:55 > 0:18:58..Sporting Biopics.

0:18:58 > 0:19:03- Richard.- We're going to show you descriptions of six films which are based on true sporting events.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05You have to tell us what the films are.

0:19:05 > 0:19:09Six on each part, so 12 films to guess at home. Good luck.

0:19:09 > 0:19:14Thank you, Richard. We are looking for sporting biopics described by these clues. We have got...

0:19:40 > 0:19:42I'll read those all again.

0:20:02 > 0:20:06There we are. Six descriptions, sporting biopics.

0:20:06 > 0:20:11- Mark, you take your pick.- Mmm. Well, there are some challenges there.

0:20:11 > 0:20:16Maybe know two or three. Can't quite know if I've got the name correct.

0:20:16 > 0:20:20But I'm going to go for the Matt Damon one. Invictus.

0:20:20 > 0:20:24Invictus. Invictus, says Mark. Let's see if that's right.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26Let's see how many said Invictus.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30He's right.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Oh, very well done indeed, Mark.

0:20:39 > 0:20:43You might have taken the best answer on the board there.

0:20:43 > 0:20:47- 5 for Invictus. - Very good start to the round, Mark.

0:20:47 > 0:20:52Clint Eastwood directed it. Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman nominated for Oscars for their performances.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55Kate. Kate, how are we feeling about this?

0:20:55 > 0:20:58Not really my strong suit, this.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00Hmmm.

0:21:00 > 0:21:04So I'm going to have to guess because I don't know any of them.

0:21:04 > 0:21:05Oh.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08- None at all. - Right.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11So I'm just going to pluck something from the air.

0:21:11 > 0:21:18And I think I'm going to go for John Candy plays coach of Jamaica's first bobsleigh team.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20And I expect there was a film called Cresta.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Jane seems to think not.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25LAUGHTER

0:21:25 > 0:21:28Let's see if that's right. How many people said Cresta?

0:21:30 > 0:21:34- I'm not surprised.- Bad luck. - You'll kick yourself when you see the answer.

0:21:34 > 0:21:37An incorrect answer, scoring you the maximum of 100 points.

0:21:37 > 0:21:41It's not Cresta, I'm afraid. It's a perfectly valid guess.

0:21:41 > 0:21:44It's impossible to read, "John Candy plays coach

0:21:44 > 0:21:48"of Jamaica's first bobsleigh team" without smiling a little.

0:21:48 > 0:21:49Lovely film.

0:21:49 > 0:21:54Wayne, remember we're looking for sporting biopics described by these clues.

0:21:54 > 0:21:58You are the last to have this board. I have a feeling you could take us through it.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01Er, I certainly know a few of them.

0:22:01 > 0:22:05The top one is Moneyball. The second one I don't know.

0:22:05 > 0:22:08Cool Runnings is the John Candy one.

0:22:08 > 0:22:13Ali is the bottom one. I think the Tobey Maguire one is Seabiscuit.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15But not 100% on that.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19- I'll just play safe with Moneyball up the top. Brad Pitt.- Moneyball,

0:22:19 > 0:22:24says Wayne. Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Absolutely right.

0:22:33 > 0:22:356.

0:22:35 > 0:22:36APPLAUSE

0:22:36 > 0:22:38The boys do it again.

0:22:38 > 0:22:416 for Moneyball.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43Good answer. Great film. Nominated for six Oscars.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Funnily enough, you weren't playing it safe.

0:22:46 > 0:22:51If you had gone for Seabiscuit, it would have scored you more points. It would have scored 20 points.

0:22:51 > 0:22:57The former boxing world champion - Ali - would have scored 30 points.

0:22:57 > 0:23:02John Candy, you were right, he plays the coach of Jamaica's first bobsleigh team in Cool Runnings.

0:23:02 > 0:23:06- Does it ring a bell?- Not really. - That's good.- I thought you'd know.

0:23:06 > 0:23:11That is something. That would've scored you 39 points. The biggest scorer on the board.

0:23:11 > 0:23:18And Graeme Obree, a famous cycling Scotsman, Johnny Lee Miller plays him in The Flying Scotsman.

0:23:18 > 0:23:211 point. Well done if you said that. It's the best answer.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24Thanks, Richard. We're halfway through. Let's take a look at the scores.

0:23:24 > 0:23:285, the best score of that part. Very well done there.

0:23:28 > 0:23:316, just one point ahead, Wayne and Greg.

0:23:31 > 0:23:35- Then I'm sorry, Kate and Jane. It's just one of those rounds.- Sport.

0:23:35 > 0:23:41Sport and films. Well, with the low scores we've had so far, I'm afraid you are a long way ahead.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44So you have a sporting challenge of your own.

0:23:44 > 0:23:49- Takes the pressure off in a way. - It does, I suppose, yes.

0:23:49 > 0:23:54Best of luck. Can the second players please take their places at the podium?

0:23:56 > 0:24:00OK. We're going to put six more descriptions of biopics on the board. Here they come.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02We have got...

0:24:27 > 0:24:29I'll read those all one last time.

0:24:50 > 0:24:52Now there we are. Greg,

0:24:52 > 0:24:54six sporting biopics.

0:24:54 > 0:24:58Um... I know a couple.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00I preferred the first board.

0:25:00 > 0:25:07But, yeah. I'm going to go for Robert De Niro plays Jake LaMotta in Raging Bull.

0:25:07 > 0:25:11Raging Bull, says Greg. Raging Bull. Now, the high scorers are

0:25:11 > 0:25:14Jane and Kate on 100. You only have to score

0:25:14 > 0:25:1793 or less to see yourself through to the Head-To-Head.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20There's your red line. Let's see if Raging Bull can get you below it.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25Absolutely, it does.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27By quite a margin. Look at that.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29Down it goes. 26. Very well done indeed.

0:25:29 > 0:25:3232 your total.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34APPLAUSE

0:25:34 > 0:25:37Sailing through, Greg and Wayne, aren't they?

0:25:37 > 0:25:40Based on Jake LaMotta's memoirs, directed by Martin Scorsese.

0:25:42 > 0:25:46- Jane? - Well, I know one. Rah!

0:25:46 > 0:25:49I was worried. I only knew two on the last board.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52I've only got one option. I'm sure it will be a high scorer.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55I know that Michael Sheen stars as Brian Clough in The Damned United.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58The Damned United. You said you knew one.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01I thought you'd go for a higher-scoring one. Good answer.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05The Damned United. No red line for you, alas. You are the high scorers.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08Let's see how many people said Damned United.

0:26:14 > 0:26:18Ooh, it's a good score. Look at that. 10. Very well done, Jane.

0:26:18 > 0:26:24That's a great answer. But I'm afraid it takes your total up to an unbeatable 110.

0:26:24 > 0:26:28A valiant attempt. It's a terrific film, The Damned United, as well.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31- I cried at the end of The Damned United.- Did you?- Yeah.- Ah.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33A little bit.

0:26:33 > 0:26:37- Now then, Martin, it's good news. - Yep.- It's good news.

0:26:37 > 0:26:43You are through to the Head-To-Head. You have the luxury of it not mattering what you score.

0:26:43 > 0:26:48So, talk us through the board. Then take a punt at a low-scoring one.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50The pressure's off, so that's quite a relief.

0:26:50 > 0:26:54I think I only really know one answer for definite on there.

0:26:54 > 0:26:58That's the British film about two athletes preparing for the Olympics.

0:26:58 > 0:27:01Which is Chariots Of Fire.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04Chariots Of Fire. No red line. You're already through.

0:27:04 > 0:27:07Let's see how many people said Chariots Of Fire.

0:27:12 > 0:27:1450.

0:27:14 > 0:27:1750. Takes your total up to 55.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19APPLAUSE

0:27:19 > 0:27:25Safe and sound. It's one where the clue looks complicated, doesn't it? But everyone's heard of the film.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27A tougher board, that second one.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29If you add the scores, they only add up to 100.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31Let's look at the three we haven't got.

0:27:31 > 0:27:36Sandra Bullock won best actress at the 2010 Oscars for The Blind Side.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40Would've scored 8 points. Based on a Michael Lewis book, same as Moneyball.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43Both terrific books as well. Denzel Washington

0:27:43 > 0:27:47plays Ruben Carter in The Hurricane, Ruben "Hurricane" Carter.

0:27:47 > 0:27:48Would've scored 4.

0:27:48 > 0:27:55And, up the top, best answer on the board - Gary Cooper played Lou Gehrig in the Pride Of The Yankees.

0:27:55 > 0:27:58That would've scored 2 points. That's a terrific answer.

0:27:58 > 0:28:03Thanks, Richard. At the end of Round Two, our losing pair, with their high score of 110,

0:28:03 > 0:28:08are Jane and Kate. But that was a valiant attempt, as Richard said.

0:28:08 > 0:28:1110, a good score. I thought you'd say Chariots Of Fire.

0:28:11 > 0:28:15I don't know why I knew that. I was aware of the advertising or something.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18- I've not seen it. - It's a great film, a great film.

0:28:18 > 0:28:24- Kate, I'm sorry. We didn't give you a nice board.- I could have got Chariots Of Fire on the second one.

0:28:24 > 0:28:28- There we are.- Never mind.- We look forward to seeing you next time.

0:28:28 > 0:28:30We'll try to serve up better categories for you.

0:28:30 > 0:28:35I can only apologise about the biopics one. Thanks for playing, Jane and Kate.

0:28:37 > 0:28:41For the remaining pairs, things get more exciting as we enter the Head-To-Head.

0:28:47 > 0:28:51Congratulations, Greg and Wayne, Mark and Martin, you are through to the Head-To-Head.

0:28:51 > 0:28:57Only one round away from the final and a chance to play for the jackpot, which stands at £15,000.

0:28:57 > 0:29:01APPLAUSE

0:29:01 > 0:29:04Now, sadly, only one pair can play for that money.

0:29:04 > 0:29:07We have to decide which it will be. You'll go head-to-head.

0:29:07 > 0:29:13This time, you're allowed to confer. The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15Greg and Wayne, you've been here before.

0:29:15 > 0:29:18This time, you are our lowest-scoring pair.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20How are you feeling?

0:29:21 > 0:29:24- Nervous. We'll wait and see what category comes up.- OK.

0:29:24 > 0:29:27You've done an amazing job with what we've thrown at you.

0:29:27 > 0:29:30As have you, Mark and Martin. Not a great deal in it.

0:29:30 > 0:29:35You can put your heads together, so anything can happen. Let's play the Head-To-Head.

0:29:35 > 0:29:38APPLAUSE

0:29:40 > 0:29:43OK. Here's your first question, and it concerns...

0:29:46 > 0:29:48LAUGHTER

0:29:48 > 0:29:50Famous Bald People.

0:29:50 > 0:29:55Just going to show you five photos now of famous bald people.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57Can you identify the most obscure of these?

0:29:57 > 0:30:02Thank you very much. Let's reveal our five famous baldies.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04Here they are. We have got...

0:30:18 > 0:30:22There we are. Five bald people.

0:30:22 > 0:30:26Greg and Wayne, you've played best so far, so you get to go first.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29WHISPER TO EACH OTHER

0:30:40 > 0:30:42I'm done.

0:30:42 > 0:30:47I think we're going to go for D, which we think is Seal.

0:30:47 > 0:30:49D - Seal. D - Seal,

0:30:49 > 0:30:54say Greg and Wayne. Mark and Martin, the rest of the board is yours.

0:30:54 > 0:30:56Yeah, I'm thinking that's going to be the best answer.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59We've got Patrick Stewart, Harry Hill, E is Agassi

0:30:59 > 0:31:04We're going to go for C and say George Foreman.

0:31:04 > 0:31:06George Foreman - C.

0:31:06 > 0:31:08So, we have Seal

0:31:08 > 0:31:10and we have George Foreman.

0:31:12 > 0:31:17Greg and Wayne, let's see if Seal's right and how many people said Seal.

0:31:24 > 0:31:2746 for Seal.

0:31:27 > 0:31:28APPLAUSE

0:31:28 > 0:31:32Mark and Martin have gone for George Foreman - C.

0:31:32 > 0:31:36Is it George Foreman? If it is, how many people said George Foreman?

0:31:39 > 0:31:41Not George Foreman, as it turns out.

0:31:41 > 0:31:45So after one question, Greg and Wayne are up one-nil. Richard.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48Well played, Greg and Wayne. C is not George Foreman.

0:31:48 > 0:31:52If we were playing this show in America, I suspect he would've got 100 points.

0:31:52 > 0:31:56He's regarded by some as the greatest basketball player of all time. Michael Jordan.

0:31:56 > 0:32:00But, over here, he scores 2 points.

0:32:00 > 0:32:05There are two answers here. Patrick Stewart would have scored you 37.

0:32:06 > 0:32:09B is Harry Hill and he would have scored you 58.

0:32:09 > 0:32:11The biggest answer there.

0:32:11 > 0:32:16And you knew Agassi. He would have scored you just 26 points.

0:32:16 > 0:32:20There we are. Here comes your second question.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23Mark and Martin, you need to come back by winning this question.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26You get to answer first, so there is that.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28It concerns...

0:32:28 > 0:32:33Jazz Standards, which I should imagine are very high.

0:32:33 > 0:32:36They're changeable, that's the main thing about them.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38We'll show you five titles of jazz standards

0:32:38 > 0:32:42but we've missed out the last word from each. Can you fill that word in?

0:32:42 > 0:32:48Thanks very much. Let's reveal five jazz standards. Here they come.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58I'll read those all one last time.

0:33:06 > 0:33:08Now then, Mark and Martin.

0:33:10 > 0:33:12Stepped Out Of The Rain is a guess.

0:33:12 > 0:33:14What about Jitterbug Boogie?

0:33:14 > 0:33:18Well, if you think you're right.

0:33:20 > 0:33:24Um, we're going to take a bit of a gamble, could be way off,

0:33:24 > 0:33:28but we're going to say Jitterbug Boogie.

0:33:28 > 0:33:33Jitterbug Boogie, say Mark and Martin. Now then, Greg and Wayne.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37Not a jazz fan.

0:33:37 > 0:33:41If there was any type of music I wouldn't want to listen to it would be jazz.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44Mack The Knife. Smoke Gets In Your Eyes.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46We're pretty certain it's Mack The Knife.

0:33:46 > 0:33:49And Smoke In Your Eyes. Gets In Your Eyes.

0:33:49 > 0:33:53I think we're going to go with Mack The Knife,

0:33:53 > 0:33:56in case Jitterbug Boogie isn't correct.

0:33:56 > 0:33:58Mack the Knife, say Greg and Wayne.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01So we have boogie and knife.

0:34:01 > 0:34:05Let's see if Jitterbug Boogie is right. If it is, how many said Jitterbug Boogie?

0:34:10 > 0:34:14Oh, no. Bad luck. Jitterbug Boogie.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16It's a line from a song, "jitterbug boogie."

0:34:16 > 0:34:20- That's what I was thinking. - Not the name of it. I thought that.

0:34:20 > 0:34:24I've no idea what that is. Greg and Wayne have gone for Mack The Knife.

0:34:24 > 0:34:28On the off chance Jitterbug Boogie was wrong. It is.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31You just have to be correct with Mack The Knife.

0:34:32 > 0:34:34And you are.

0:34:34 > 0:34:36APPLAUSE

0:34:36 > 0:34:41You are through to the next round. Very well done, Greg and Wayne.

0:34:41 > 0:34:45After only two questions, two-nil is your score.

0:34:45 > 0:34:49Well played. "Jitterbug boogie" is a line from T. Rex's I Love To Boogie.

0:34:49 > 0:34:53Jitterbug boogie. The jitterbug there is a pointless answer.

0:34:53 > 0:34:56The jazz standard we were looking for is Jitterbug Waltz.

0:34:56 > 0:34:59Very well done if you said that at home - pointless.

0:34:59 > 0:35:03You Stepped Out Of A Salon. Not really. You Stepped Out Of A Dream.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06Would have scored you 24 points.

0:35:06 > 0:35:09Polka Dots And Moonbeams.

0:35:09 > 0:35:13That was Frank Sinatra's first ever hit, Polka Dots And Moonbeams.

0:35:13 > 0:35:18And it's Smoke Gets In Your Eyes but it's the biggest scorer of all - 88.

0:35:18 > 0:35:23Thank you, Richard. Our losing pair at the end of the Head-ToHead is Mark and Martin.

0:35:23 > 0:35:29Two spirited answers there. Um, I'm afraid, incorrect, though.

0:35:29 > 0:35:32Missing out on the most famous basketball player of all time.

0:35:32 > 0:35:35There we are. It's been great having you on the show.

0:35:35 > 0:35:38We'll have you next time. Let's hope you get through to the final.

0:35:38 > 0:35:40- It's been great having you. - Thank you.

0:35:40 > 0:35:42APPLAUSE

0:35:42 > 0:35:47But for Greg and Wayne, it's now time for our Pointless Final.

0:35:51 > 0:35:54Congratulations, Greg and Wayne, you fought off the competition

0:35:54 > 0:35:57and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05You now have a chance to win our jackpot.

0:36:05 > 0:36:09At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £15,000.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11APPLAUSE AND WHOOPING

0:36:12 > 0:36:15Well, you've just done so well.

0:36:15 > 0:36:19So well in this game. We've given you American states, biopics,

0:36:19 > 0:36:21we've given you bald people,

0:36:21 > 0:36:27we've given you jazz standards. Even jazz standards, which was tricky for you.

0:36:27 > 0:36:31You knocked it out the park. Very well done indeed.

0:36:31 > 0:36:34The rules are simple. To win, you must find a pointless answer.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36Do that and you will go home with £15,000.

0:36:36 > 0:36:40You have to choose a category from five options. They are...

0:36:47 > 0:36:50- What do you think? Motor racing? - It's going to have to be.

0:36:50 > 0:36:55- Welsh bands. - Not a great board, to be honest.

0:36:55 > 0:36:59But I think we'll have to go for Motor Racing. Motor Racing.

0:36:59 > 0:37:03Motor Racing. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.

0:37:03 > 0:37:10We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many winners of the Monaco Grand Prix as they could.

0:37:10 > 0:37:15- Richard.- We're looking for any winners of the Formula One Monaco Grand Prix

0:37:15 > 0:37:18from 1955 to the 2012 race, please.

0:37:18 > 0:37:22- Any winner of the Monaco Grand Prix. Very best of luck, guys.- OK.

0:37:22 > 0:37:27All you need to win that £15,000 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:37:27 > 0:37:30- Are you ready?- Yep. - Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32There they are. Your time starts now.

0:37:32 > 0:37:36Right. We're not going to know specifically who won the Monaco Grand Prix.

0:37:36 > 0:37:41Let's name good drivers who were the most successful and obscure.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43David Coulthard, possibly.

0:37:43 > 0:37:47- Eddie Irvine had a good season one year for Ferrari.- OK.

0:37:47 > 0:37:51- Um, older drivers. - Jackie Stewart, did he ever win it?

0:37:51 > 0:37:56- He probably did.- Too obvious. - People would have a guess at that.

0:37:56 > 0:37:58Um...

0:37:59 > 0:38:02- Any recent? - Niki Lauda.

0:38:02 > 0:38:04Yeah. Yeah. Um...

0:38:06 > 0:38:11Can you think of any more successful motor racers

0:38:11 > 0:38:13that have slipped people's memory?

0:38:13 > 0:38:18- There's Ralf Schumacher. - Ralf Schumacher.

0:38:18 > 0:38:20Um...

0:38:20 > 0:38:23- Niki Lauda.- Niki Lauda. - Ralf Schumacher.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25- Ten seconds left. - Eddie Irvine.

0:38:25 > 0:38:28- Eddie Irvine. Unless you want to go...- No.

0:38:28 > 0:38:30BOTH MUMBLE

0:38:30 > 0:38:32No. No. What you said earlier.

0:38:32 > 0:38:36That's time up. We were looking for winners of the Monaco Gran Prix.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38I now need your three answers.

0:38:38 > 0:38:44- OK. We're going to go with Niki Lauda.- Niki Lauda.- Eddie Irvine and Ralf Schumacher.- Ralf Schumacher.

0:38:44 > 0:38:48Of those three, which is your most likely shot at the pointless answer?

0:38:48 > 0:38:51- Maybe Eddie Irvine. - We'll put Eddie Irvine last.

0:38:51 > 0:38:54What about your least likely?

0:38:54 > 0:38:59- I don't think there's much in it. Niki Lauda. - Niki Lauda we'll put first.

0:38:59 > 0:39:02Let's pop them on the board in that order. Here they are. We have...

0:39:05 > 0:39:08We were looking for winners of the Monaco Grand Prix.

0:39:08 > 0:39:13Your first answer, Niki Lauda, you thought was the least likely to be pointless.

0:39:13 > 0:39:17You only have to find one pointless answer to win that £15,000.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19Niki Lauda. How many people said it?

0:39:23 > 0:39:27Ooh, it's right. Niki Lauda, your first shot at the jackpot.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30Correct answer. He was a winner of the Monaco Grand Prix.

0:39:30 > 0:39:33Down it goes, Into the 20s, into the teens. Still going down.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35Ooh, 7.

0:39:35 > 0:39:37APPLAUSE

0:39:37 > 0:39:397.

0:39:39 > 0:39:41- We got that one right. - Yeah.

0:39:43 > 0:39:46You landed a hit with your first answer - Niki Lauda.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49- You weren't entirely sure about any of these, were you?- No.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52That's a great answer - 7. Brilliant score in normal game play.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56In this round, it's pointless answers we're interested in.

0:39:56 > 0:39:59That means you only have two more shots at today's jackpot.

0:39:59 > 0:40:03Your next answer. Let's hope nobody said Ralf Schumacher.

0:40:03 > 0:40:07Again, this was a bit of a punt. But an informed punt.

0:40:07 > 0:40:11Informed enough. It has to be pointless to win the jackpot. It has to be right.

0:40:11 > 0:40:16Let's see. For £15,000, how many people said Ralf Schumacher?

0:40:21 > 0:40:26Bad luck. An incorrect answer, which means you only have one more shot

0:40:26 > 0:40:30at today's jackpot. Your final answer - Eddie Irvine.

0:40:32 > 0:40:37If this is right, it has the feel of a pointless answer. Eddie Irvine.

0:40:37 > 0:40:41It does. To win the jackpot of £15,000, it has to be pointless.

0:40:41 > 0:40:44Let's find out: A - is it right? B - is it pointless?

0:40:44 > 0:40:46How many people said Eddie Irvine?

0:40:49 > 0:40:51Oh, no!

0:40:51 > 0:40:53APPLAUSE

0:40:53 > 0:40:55Oh, bad luck.

0:40:57 > 0:41:03Oh, Greg, Wayne, I'm so sorry. Three great-sounding answers.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05Turns out only Niki Lauda was correct.

0:41:05 > 0:41:10You didn't find that all-important pointless answer, so you don't win today's jackpot of £15,000.

0:41:10 > 0:41:12That rolls over onto the next show.

0:41:12 > 0:41:15But you have been superb on both shows you've been on.

0:41:15 > 0:41:21- Brilliant contestants. You do get to take home our Pointless trophy. Well done.- Thank you.- Thank you.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23APPLAUSE

0:41:25 > 0:41:29Unlucky, guys. You've been terrific. Eddie Irvine was a good answer.

0:41:29 > 0:41:34He did have a couple of strong seasons. Nearly won the title one year but never won in Monaco.

0:41:34 > 0:41:37I know a lot of the F1 fans are brilliant at this sort of thing.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39There'll be names up here you'll know.

0:41:39 > 0:41:44There'll be names you know but whether you could have got them is another matter.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47The Argentinian Carlos Reutemann won in 1980.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50Denny Hulme, the New Zealander, he won it in '67.

0:41:50 > 0:41:54Gilles Villeneuve who won it in '81, the French Canadian, would've been a pointless answer.

0:41:54 > 0:42:00Jarno Trulli won it in 2004, he's the latest name on the list.

0:42:00 > 0:42:05Jochen Rindt. Jody Scheckter the world champion, won the Monaco Grand Prix and was a pointless answer.

0:42:05 > 0:42:09Juan Pablo Montoya won it, the Columbian. I'm sure people got him.

0:42:09 > 0:42:13Keke Rosberg, he won it. A hugely experienced driver, the father of Nico Rosberg.

0:42:13 > 0:42:16And Riccardo Patrese as well, the Italian.

0:42:16 > 0:42:18There's another couple of answers.

0:42:18 > 0:42:21Patrick Depailler and Ronnie Peterson.

0:42:21 > 0:42:23Very well done to people who got some of them at home.

0:42:23 > 0:42:28- Any of those names ringing a bell? - Might have got Gilles Villeneuve. - Yeah.- But not to be.

0:42:28 > 0:42:31We must say goodbye. It's been great having you on the show.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34- Thank you both for playing. Greg and Wayne.- Thank you.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36APPLAUSE

0:42:36 > 0:42:39Sadly, they didn't win our jackpot, which means

0:42:39 > 0:42:43it rolls over onto the next show when we will be playing for £16,000.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45APPLAUSE AND WHOOPING

0:42:45 > 0:42:48- Join us to see if someone can win it. It's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:42:48 > 0:42:50And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.

0:42:50 > 0:42:52APPLAUSE
