0:00:13 > 0:00:16APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Thank you. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:25 > 0:00:29the quiz show where the aim of the game is to score as few points as you can.
0:00:29 > 0:00:33To do that, you need to come up with the answers no-one else could think of. Let's meet the players.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36APPLAUSE
0:00:37 > 0:00:42- And couple number one.- Hi, I'm Mark and this is my friend David
0:00:42 > 0:00:44and we're both from Cardiff.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48- Couple number two. - I'm Lisa, this is my husband Tom and we're from Manchester.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51- Couple number three. - I'm Emily, this is my mum Sue
0:00:51 > 0:00:53- and we're from Darlington. - And couple number four.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57I'm Dave, this is my mate Andy and we're from Canvey Island.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59And these are today's contestants.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02APPLAUSE
0:01:02 > 0:01:06Thanks to all of you. We'll find out more about you throughout the show.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08There is only one person left for me to introduce.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11He is as clever as Einstein and as handsome as Brad Pitt.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15He even writes his own intros. It's my Pointless friend,
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- it's Richard.- Hiya. Hi, everyone. APPLAUSE
0:01:20 > 0:01:23- Good afternoon.- And to you.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27- I'm excited about this jackpot now. - Yes! It's as high as it's ever been.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31Yes, joint-highest of all time. Just one pointless answer, it'll be our biggest ever jackpot.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36- Mm-hm.- Twice we've been at 20 grand or above and it's gone both times.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39The second it hits 20 grand, it's gone. So if the pattern repeats,
0:01:39 > 0:01:45then one of these pairs here is going to be £20,000 and change richer in 45 minutes' time.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48So very, very best of luck.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51All questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55Our contestants need to find the obscure answers our 100 people didn't get.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59Everyone's looking for a pointless answer that none of our 100 gave,
0:01:59 > 0:02:01and each time that happens, we add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04Karen and Paul didn't win the jackpot last time,
0:02:04 > 0:02:06so we add another £1,000 to that,
0:02:06 > 0:02:11so today's jackpot starts off at £20,250.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20APPLAUSE
0:02:22 > 0:02:26OK, in this round I'll be taking an answer from each of you but there's no conferring.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29The pair with the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33Try and make sure that's not you. Our first category today is...
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Can you decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43And whoever's going first, step up to the podium.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48OK, let's find out what the question is.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:02:50 > 0:02:56to name as many chemical elements with two-letter chemical symbols as they could.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58- Richard.- We're looking for the name of any chemical element
0:02:58 > 0:03:02in the periodic table that has a symbol that is just two letters.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05The people in charge of the periodic table are the IUPAC.
0:03:05 > 0:03:10As of June 2012, they say there are 114 elements in that periodic table
0:03:10 > 0:03:13with two-letter symbols. You just need to give us one.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Very, very best of luck. There'll be plenty of pointless answers, too.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20- Thanks very much. Now then, Mark. - Hi, Alex.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23- Remind us what you do.- I'm a dental technician.- That's right.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25- And in your spare time? - I like to watch football
0:03:25 > 0:03:28- and I like to play squash. - Very good.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31- Big Cardiff City fan. - Big Cardiff City fan.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35Now then, how are you on your chemical elements?
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Pretty good.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41I know a lot about chemistry because we do a lot in our job,
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- we use a lot of different metals. - Mm-hm.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47OK. We had a pointless answer from you to kick the game off last time.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Can we do it again? - Hopefully.- Fingers crossed.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54I'm going to go for beryllium.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- Beryllium.- Beryllium. - Beryllium, says Mark.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many of our 100 said beryllium.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05Absolutely right.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14- Very well done indeed, Mark. - APPLAUSE
0:04:14 > 0:04:17That's a great answer. Beryllium.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Well done, Mark. A terrific answer. Be is the chemical symbol for that.
0:04:21 > 0:04:25We have beryllium quite a lot and we always say berylliant answer.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- Thank you very much. - Thank you, Richard.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32- Now then, Lisa. Welcome to Pointless.- Hello. - Great to have you here.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36- You're from Manchester. What do you do, Lisa?- I work for the Youth Offending Service in Manchester.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39So I do group work interventions with young people
0:04:39 > 0:04:41who are in the criminal justice system.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Very good. How did you meet Tom?
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Tom was a drummer in a band
0:04:46 > 0:04:49and they were on tour
0:04:49 > 0:04:51and I was out with a friend
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- and, yeah, we met. - LAUGHTER
0:04:54 > 0:04:57- And that was that.- Good band?
0:04:57 > 0:05:01- No. - LAUGHTER
0:05:01 > 0:05:05- He had to leave the band to live with me in Manchester. - That was a condition, was it?
0:05:05 > 0:05:08- Yeah.- Wow! Tom! You thought it was going to be just other night.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Yeah. And my whole life changed.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Wow.- Two children now.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16- Two children? - The rock and roll dream has gone.
0:05:16 > 0:05:21- Is he allowed to keep a drum kit? - In the garage.- OK. Fair enough.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Anyway, Lisa, chemistry.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26I don't want to play it safe but I think I'm going to have...
0:05:26 > 0:05:29I just think I'm going to bottle it cos it's our first go.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33So I'm going to say iron.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Iron, says Lisa.
0:05:35 > 0:05:40Let's see if iron's right, and if it is, how many of our 100 said iron.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Well, it's right.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Six our lowest score. Still going down.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50- 23. Not bad at all, Lisa. - APPLAUSE
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Well done, Lisa. Safe but sound.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58The most common, cheapest metal in the world.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02Makes up five percent of the earth's crust, as well.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05- Wow. I didn't know that. - Did you not?- No. Five percent?
0:06:05 > 0:06:09We should talk more often about what constitutes the earth's crust.
0:06:09 > 0:06:14Wow. Now then, Sue, welcome to the show. What do you do?
0:06:14 > 0:06:18I'm a retired bursar. I used to work in a school.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22- What do you like getting up to now? - Emily and I like to see live bands,
0:06:22 > 0:06:25but when I'm quietly at home, I love knitting.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- Wow.- So I've brought you a present. - ALEXANDER GASPS
0:06:30 > 0:06:32LAUGHTER
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- APPLAUSE - Oh, my word!
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Look at that!
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Ohh!
0:06:40 > 0:06:45- Look at... These are brilliant!- Wow!
0:06:45 > 0:06:48- Look at that!- That's amazing.
0:06:48 > 0:06:53- Look, there's you.- There's me. - And Martin McGuinness. That is... - LAUGHTER
0:06:53 > 0:06:57That is brilliant!
0:06:57 > 0:07:00- Oh, that's...- I could wear it like a sort of chasuble.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03We should probably have the one with the other's face on.
0:07:03 > 0:07:09- That'd be a nice...- That would be slightly less self-referential.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Ohh!- You take that one. I'll take your one.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15There you go. And then, yeah, permanent double act.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20When people say, "Where's Richard?" I'll go, "What do you mean? He's here."
0:07:20 > 0:07:24If anyone comes up... Cos people quite often, in the street, they say, "What's Xander like?"
0:07:24 > 0:07:27- Do you know what I'll say? - He's like this.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31"He's a hell of a guy." LAUGHTER
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- They're amazing.- They are lovely. Oh, Sue, thank you so much!
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Now then, Sue, sorry, chemical symbols with two letters.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41I'm not really very chemically minded,
0:07:41 > 0:07:46so I'll try and think what I hope is a chemical. Silver?
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Silver, says Sue. Let's see if silver's right,
0:07:48 > 0:07:51let's see how many people said silver.
0:07:52 > 0:07:57It's absolutely right. Six our best score so far. 23 our highest.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01- Ooh, 34. Quite high, silver. - APPLAUSE
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Well done, Sue. He is the symbol for silver.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11- I think you deserve fewer points, though, for the scarves. - Yeah. Oh, she'll get through.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15- Oh, good.- Oh, yes. Quite possibly jackpot material.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18- LAUGHTER - Dave.- Hello.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Dave, welcome back to Pointless. Tell us what happened last time.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Andy had a bad round, that's all.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26- We had a bad round. - I think it's my turn this time.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30That's right. We were looking for countries with more than 50 million people.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34You said Thailand, which is a great answer. Nothing wrong with Dave.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38- No, Dave has been terrific.- Not yet. - One of the best scores in the round.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41We called him Diamond Dave. We were talking about you for the rest of the show.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Just chatting about how awesome you were.
0:08:43 > 0:08:48Andy, we were talking about you, as well, but I won't go into what we said.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- So, Dave, remind us what you do. - I'm a handyman.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55A handyman. How handy are you with chemical symbols?
0:08:55 > 0:08:59- Not very good. - OK. We're looking for any element that has a two-letter symbol.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04I'm going to say gold.
0:09:04 > 0:09:09Gold. We've had silver. Dave's taking gold. Let's see if it's right and how many people said gold.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Absolutely right.
0:09:13 > 0:09:1534 our highest so far.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19- Ooh, 39. Up it goes. - APPLAUSE
0:09:19 > 0:09:22Still, not a bad score, Dave.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25Yeah, beats 100, doesn't it? Au is gold.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Thank you. We're halfway through the round. Let's look at the scores.
0:09:28 > 0:09:33Mark and David setting a very, very low benchmark there. Very well done. Six.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36Up to 23, where we find Lisa and Tom.
0:09:36 > 0:09:4034, Sue and Emily. 39, Dave and Andy.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44You're not miles out in front there. Andy, it shouldn't be too difficult
0:09:44 > 0:09:47to get in a better position in the next pass. Best of luck.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51We'll come back down the line. Can the second players please take their places at the podium.
0:09:53 > 0:09:59OK. We're looking for any element was a two-letter chemical symbol.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03Andy, you're a little bit ahead there. A little bit ahead. But not miles ahead.
0:10:03 > 0:10:07We need a nice low-scoring answer from you. Remind us what you do.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10- I run a small windows and cladding company.- Very good.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14What kind of cladding do you do? Are there different kinds?
0:10:14 > 0:10:19Oh, yeah, loads of foils. You've got wood grain, rosewoods, red.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22- You can pick loads of colours. - Very good. OK.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26So, Andy, chemical elements with two letters in.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30- I'm going to go with xenon.- Oh, it's a different Andy today!- Yeah.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- What about that?- Someone's raised his game, hasn't he?
0:10:33 > 0:10:36LAUGHTER
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Whoa, xenon. There we are. There we go.
0:10:39 > 0:10:4239 is what you're on. You're the high scorers so there's no red line.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45We just have to hope xenon goes a long way down.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Very good.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54Still going down, Andy. Still going down!
0:10:54 > 0:10:58- One! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:10:58 > 0:11:00One point for xenon.
0:11:00 > 0:11:06- Very well done indeed, Andy. That takes your total up to 40. Brilliant.- Well played, Andy.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09That's terrific work. Incredibly heavy and incredibly rare, xenon.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13Thank you, Richard. Now then, Emily, what do you do in Darlington?
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- I'm a teacher.- What do you teach?
0:11:15 > 0:11:19- ICT.- Right. And what do you do when you're not teaching?
0:11:19 > 0:11:24- I go to concerts.- Who in particular?
0:11:24 > 0:11:27- I like the Kings Of Leon.- Very good. - And I've seen them 32 times.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29And I like The Killers.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32- You like bands beginning with K, don't you?- Yeah.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35That's very impressive. Kenny G?
0:11:35 > 0:11:39- Kenny Loggins?- No.- Kasabian?- Yeah.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- The Krankies?- Yeah, seen them. - LAUGHTER
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- Well, this is fun.- I am happy for the rest of the show now.
0:11:45 > 0:11:49LAUGHTER Groups beginning with K.
0:11:49 > 0:11:54Now then, Emily, chemical elements with a two-letter symbol.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58- I only know one and nobody's said it yet.- OK.- So I'm going to say lead.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Lead. Well, Andy and Dave are on 40. They're the high scorers.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05You're on 34. If you can score five or less with lead,
0:12:05 > 0:12:08you are through to the next round.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Let's see how many people said lead.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14It's absolutely right,
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Still going down.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22- Ooh, look at that. 18. - APPLAUSE
0:12:22 > 0:12:24Not a bad score at all. Takes your total to 52.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30Yeah, well played. The alchemists believed it to be the oldest of all metals, lead.
0:12:32 > 0:12:37- Now then, Tom. Tom, hello.- Hello. - And a very, very warm welcome.
0:12:37 > 0:12:41- So you had to give up the band? - I didn't have to.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45It doesn't sound like that to me. Lisa, what was the deal?
0:12:45 > 0:12:50- It was my own choice.- Yeah, yeah. - Own free will.- Yeah.
0:12:50 > 0:12:55- Did they find another drummer? - No, they've gone on to do other musical things.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58- What was the name of the band? - We were called The Bright Space.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02- The Bright Space?- Yeah. - They're now called One Direction.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06- Things have kind of changed for them, haven't they, since you left? - But I'm not bitter.- No.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09- How about chemistry?- Not good.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12- Not such a strong suit for you? - No.- All right.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16Well, listen, the high scorers at the moment are Emily and Sue on 52. You're in 23.
0:13:16 > 0:13:21If you can score 28 or less, you're in the next round.
0:13:21 > 0:13:26OK, I'm really not sure, but I'm going to say zinc.
0:13:26 > 0:13:31Zinc, says Tom. Zinc. Let's see how many people said zinc. Is it right?
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Absolutely right. Very well done, Tom.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Still going down.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41You've done it! Very well done. Round two, here you come.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45- APPLAUSE - 13 for zinc. Takes your total up to 36.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Well played, Tom. Zn. One of the most commercially important metals.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53- It's a good supplement. - Yeah, zinc, mm.- Zinc, mm.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Mm-mm-mm. David.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Now then, David, the moment of truth.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02Are you handy with chemistry? Is this something you feel at home...
0:14:02 > 0:14:06- It's a well-known subject that comes up quite a lot.- It does.
0:14:06 > 0:14:11It's a friend to Pointless, this category, most certainly.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15- What are you going to go for? - Erm, titanium.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Titanium. OK, titanium, says David.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22Let's see if it's right, and if it is, how many people said titanium.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27Very well done, it is a two-letter symbol. Heading towards the red line
0:14:27 > 0:14:31and it goes through it. Well done. You are in round two.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Still going down. Six! You equal the low score of Mark.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38That's a wonderful answer, David. Takes your total up to 12.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41The lowest score of the round by a margin.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45Well played, David. Yeah, titanium. It's a very lightweight but high-strength material.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48They use it in high-speed aeroplanes and things like that.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51There's loads of pointless answers. Let's look at a few.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53I know some people will be very, very good on this.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Actinium, which is Ac.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Astatine, which is At. Db for dubnium.
0:15:01 > 0:15:05Germanium, iridium, Nobelium, all of those pointless answers.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Palladium, promethium, technetium.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11I'll give you a few more. Americium, bismuth,
0:15:11 > 0:15:13darmstadtium, einsteinium, europium,
0:15:13 > 0:15:18lanthanum, lawrencium, mendelevium, osmium, my favourite.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22You could've had protactinium, rhodium,
0:15:22 > 0:15:26rutherfordium, tantalum, thallium and zirconium.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30All of those pointless answers. Very well done if you said any of those at home.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of our first round,
0:15:33 > 0:15:36the losing pair with their high score of 52 are Emily and Sue.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39It's not even that high a score, for goodness sake. 52.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Normally that would see you sailing through.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44But it just happened to be quite a low-scoring round.
0:15:44 > 0:15:49We'll see you again next time, Emily and Sue. We'll look forward to that. Thanks for playing. Emily and Sue.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52APPLAUSE
0:15:52 > 0:15:55But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57APPLAUSE
0:16:00 > 0:16:03Now, obviously there's only room for two pairs in our head-to-head,
0:16:03 > 0:16:06so we'll have to say goodbye to another pair at the end of this round.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09David and Mark, lovely low scoring from you there.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11But the real story of the last round was Andy
0:16:11 > 0:16:15turning it round like he did with xenon. Fabulous.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17I had to save him this time, didn't I?
0:16:17 > 0:16:20- HE LAUGHS - You did! Well, you've done it.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Welcome to round two. How do you like it?
0:16:22 > 0:16:24- Lovely, isn't it?- Yeah! - LAUGHTER
0:16:24 > 0:16:26We do our best. Anyway, best of luck to all of you.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Our category for round two is...
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Can you decide in your pairs who's going first, who's going second.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37And whoever's going first, step up to the podium.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41And the question concerns...
0:16:46 > 0:16:51- Richard.- On each pass, we're going to give you the names of six films that were based on comic books.
0:16:51 > 0:16:56We just need you to tell us the name of the actor who played the central character in each.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59There'll be 12 in all to have a go at at home. Very best of luck.
0:16:59 > 0:17:04Thanks. We're looking for the actors who played these comic book characters. Here's our first board.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17I'll read those all one last time.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29There we are. Six films.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32You need the name of the actor who played the central character.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Now, are you a comic book fan, Mark?
0:17:34 > 0:17:38I have, in my younger days, yes.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40I used to watched Batman.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43- Most of the Marvel comics, as well. - OK.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47But what about these films made specifically in these years?
0:17:47 > 0:17:50- Gets a little bit tougher, doesn't it?- Yes, it does.
0:17:51 > 0:17:56I'm going to go for Batman 1966.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01And I'm hoping it's going to be Burt Ward.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05Burt Ward, says Mark. Burt Ward for Batman in 1966.
0:18:05 > 0:18:09Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said Burt Ward.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15Bad luck, Mark. An incorrect answer, I'm afraid,
0:18:15 > 0:18:19which means you score the maximum of 100 points. Not Burt Ward.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Sorry, Mark. You're on the right lines. He is in that film but he's Robin.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25- Sorry.- Now then, Tom.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29Are you a comic book fan? Are you a fan of these movies?
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Yeah, some of the films, a little bit.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34But, you know, I'm having a moment of panic.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37So I might have to play it a little bit safer.
0:18:37 > 0:18:43- OK.- So I'm going to go with Batman and I'm going to say Adam West.
0:18:43 > 0:18:48Adam West, says Tom. Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said Adam West.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Absolutely right.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- 15. - APPLAUSE
0:19:00 > 0:19:0315 for Adam West, Tom. Very well done.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07Yeah, I think Mark knew that one, as well, didn't you? Good answer.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10He went up against four super-villains in one film.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14He went up against the Joker, the Riddler, Catwoman and the Penguin.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17Interesting. Now then, Dave.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21Oh, I can see the bloke who's Spider-Man but I can't remember his name.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24Dredd, don't know.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Spawn and Devil, don't know.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30Iron Man, I'm going to take a guess at Robert Downey Jnr.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Robert Downey Jnr, says Dave, for Iron Man.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many of our 100 people said Robert Downey Jnr.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Absolutely right. Very well done, Dave.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48- 19. - APPLAUSE
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Very well done. 19 for Robert Downey Jnr.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54Good answer, Dave. Plays Tony Stark, who is Iron Man.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Let's take a look at the rest of this board.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00Spider-Man from 2002 was Tobey Maguire.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Would've scored you 21.
0:20:02 > 0:20:07Dredd was a low-scoring answer. It was Karl Urban. Would've scored you six points.
0:20:07 > 0:20:12Now, Daredevil was Ben Affleck. Would've scored you nine points.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14And Spawn is the best answer on the board.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Would've scored you two points and it's Michael Jai White.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21Very well done if you got that at home. I suspect some people will get all of these.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23I bet, yeah. Thanks, Richard.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26OK, we're halfway through the round. Let's look at the scores.
0:20:26 > 0:20:3015 the best score of that pass. Well done, Tom. Looking pretty good.
0:20:30 > 0:20:3319, Dave and Andy, ditto.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37Then a long way up to 100, where we find Mark and David. Bad luck.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40- David, very, very best of luck. - Thank you.- Who knows?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43Maybe there'll be some high scores and you'll be thrown a lifeline.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47We'll come back down the line. Can the second players take their places at the podium.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53OK, let's put six more films on the board. And here they come.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55We have got...
0:21:07 > 0:21:08I'll read those one last time.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25Andy, there we are. Six more comic book films.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28We're looking for the actors who played these comic book characters.
0:21:29 > 0:21:33I think I'll go for Superman, Christopher Reeve.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36OK, you're going to say Superman, Christopher Reeve.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39You're on 19. The high scorers are David and Mark on 100.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43If you can score 80 or less, through you go to the head-to-head.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46There's your red line. Superman, said Andy.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said it.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54Absolutely right and through you go. Very well done, Andy.
0:21:55 > 0:22:00- 37. Takes your total to 56. - APPLAUSE
0:22:02 > 0:22:05Well done, Andy, and delivered with the confidence of a man who knows
0:22:05 > 0:22:06he's just got to get a correct answer.
0:22:06 > 0:22:10Yeah, also Marlon Brando and Gene Hackman in that film.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11Now then, Lisa.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15Lisa. How are you feeling about this as a round in general?
0:22:15 > 0:22:17It's not too bad.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20I definitely know one of them, and the other one,
0:22:20 > 0:22:24I don't know whether to just take a risk and do it.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27Well, just to put you in the picture, David and Mark are on 100.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29You're on 15.
0:22:29 > 0:22:33If you can score 84 or less, you go through to the head-to-head.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37I should probably play it safe, then.
0:22:37 > 0:22:42And I'll say X-Men Origins is Hugh Jackman.
0:22:42 > 0:22:43Hugh Jackman.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47X-Men Origins, Wolverine, Hugh Jackman, says Lisa.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50There is your red line. Let's see if Hugh Jackman's right,
0:22:50 > 0:22:52and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57Absolutely right, and you're through to the head-to-head.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Very well done, Lisa. That's all you had to do.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Not that safe! Nice low score. 21.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06Takes your total up to 36, the lowest total of the round.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Well played, Lisa. So, yeah, that film looks at Wolverine's origins.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Now then, David.
0:23:14 > 0:23:15We're out.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18I'm afraid you are going out, because your score is already
0:23:18 > 0:23:21the highest before you've even given your answer.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24But, well, there are four answers left on the board.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Can you take us through the board?
0:23:26 > 0:23:28- No. - LAUGHTER
0:23:28 > 0:23:31Can you take us through any single answer on the board?
0:23:31 > 0:23:33- Supergirl.- Yes.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36In the Batman film, she was Barbara Gordon.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Supergirl, Barbara Gordon, says David. Let's see if that's right,
0:23:39 > 0:23:41and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43I'm afraid there's no red line for you,
0:23:43 > 0:23:45as you are already the high scorers. But let's see.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Barbara Gordon, is it right?
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Bad luck.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Valiant effort, though, David, but I'm afraid,
0:23:53 > 0:23:55she might well have played Supergirl,
0:23:55 > 0:23:58but I'm afraid in 1984 that's not the correct answer.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02That scores you the maximum of 100 points. Takes your total up to 200.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05But again, the two of you showing exemplary knowledge
0:24:05 > 0:24:08of the '60s Batman oeuvre, because Barbara Gordon was Batgirl.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11- Batgirl, yeah.- Yeah, she was Commissioner Gordon's daughter.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15Er, Supergirl in the film in 1984, would have scored you 6 points,
0:24:15 > 0:24:19and it was Helen Slater. Very well done if you said that.
0:24:19 > 0:24:24Constantine was played by Keanu Reeves, John Constantine,
0:24:24 > 0:24:26would have scored you 13 points.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28Hellboy was Ron Perlman.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Would have scored you 3.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Tank Girl is a Pointless answer,
0:24:32 > 0:24:36it was Lori Petty. Pointless. Very, very well done if you got that.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37It was a tough board, as well,
0:24:37 > 0:24:40- so anyone who got all of those has done very well.- Thanks, Richard.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42So at the end of round two, our losing pair
0:24:42 > 0:24:45with a high score of 200, I'm afraid, David and Mark.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47- You were head-to-headers last time! - C'est la vie.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50It's been great having you on both shows. Thank you so much.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52David and Mark. Great contestants. Thank you.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55- APPLAUSE. - But for the two remaining pairs,
0:24:55 > 0:24:57they're getting one step closer to the final and the chance
0:24:57 > 0:25:00of taking home that massive jackpot as we enter the head-to-head.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08Congratulations, Lisa and Tom, Andy and Dave,
0:25:08 > 0:25:11you're now only one round away from the final and a chance to play
0:25:11 > 0:25:14for the jackpot which currently stands at £20,250.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16APPLAUSE
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Now, obviously, only one pair can play for that money.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24To decide which pair it's going to be, you go head to head.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27This time, you're allowed to confer.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30The first pair to win two questions will be playing for the jackpot.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Very, very best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35APPLAUSE
0:25:40 > 0:25:44OK. Here comes your first question, and it concerns...
0:25:44 > 0:25:46UK general elections.
0:25:46 > 0:25:47UK general elections, Richard.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49I'm going to show you five images now of politicians
0:25:49 > 0:25:51after they've won a general election.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55We need you to tell us in which year were these pictures taken.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57Very best of luck.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00Thanks very much. So yes, let's reveal our five politicians,
0:26:00 > 0:26:04so you can tell us the year in which these pictures were taken. They are:
0:26:18 > 0:26:19There we are.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Five election results,
0:26:21 > 0:26:24five politicians, five years we need.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27Lisa and Tom, you've played best throughout the show so far
0:26:27 > 0:26:28so you get to go first.
0:26:28 > 0:26:29THEY CONFER
0:26:35 > 0:26:37OK.
0:26:37 > 0:26:41We're going to say A,
0:26:41 > 0:26:441990.
0:26:45 > 0:26:511990. 1990, say Lisa and Tom.
0:26:51 > 0:26:55- Andy and Dave, the board is yours. - Right.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58We're going to have a bash at E,
0:26:58 > 0:27:00and say 1979.
0:27:00 > 0:27:021979.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06You're going to say E, 1979. OK.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08So we have 1990, we have 1979.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Lisa and Tom said 1990. Let's see if that's right,
0:27:10 > 0:27:13and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:27:15 > 0:27:16No!
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Which means Andy and Dave,
0:27:18 > 0:27:21all you would need to be, with your answer of 1979, is correct.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Let's see if you are.
0:27:26 > 0:27:27Oh!
0:27:27 > 0:27:31Two incorrect answers, which means after one question, it's nil-nil.
0:27:31 > 0:27:36Yeah, bad luck both teams there. John Major, that's 1992, that election.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38He did become leader in 1990, but that's the general election,
0:27:38 > 0:27:40is 92. Would have scored 12 points.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44Now this last answer, '79 was when Thatcher won for the first time,
0:27:44 > 0:27:48and that's the reason why this is a Pointless answer. Nobody got it.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50There's a clue there - she's got three fingers up.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53It was her third election win, so it was 1987.
0:27:53 > 0:27:57That was a Pointless answer. So very well done if you said that at home.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00Fill in the others, B is Clement Attlee,
0:28:00 > 0:28:03winning the general election in 1945.
0:28:03 > 0:28:057 points, that would have scored you.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07C, you would have got points
0:28:07 > 0:28:10if you just remembered that the last general election was 2010.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12Remembered by 44 people.
0:28:14 > 0:28:18And D, that's Blair in 1997.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21And that would have scored you 23.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Thanks very much indeed. So here comes your second question.
0:28:24 > 0:28:28Still no scores on the board at this stage, best of luck to both pairs.
0:28:28 > 0:28:32It concerns the New Seven Wonders Of The World.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35The New Seven Wonders Of The World. Richard.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37In 2007, the new Seven Wonders Foundation
0:28:37 > 0:28:40published a list of the new Seven Wonders Of The World.
0:28:40 > 0:28:41Were going to show you five countries now.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Can you tell us the New Wonder Of The World
0:28:43 > 0:28:45that's in each of these countries?
0:28:45 > 0:28:46OK. Thank you very much.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49Let's reveal our five countries, and here they come. We have got.
0:28:55 > 0:28:56I'll read them again.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05Andy and Dave. You go first this time.
0:29:05 > 0:29:07THEY CONFER
0:29:12 > 0:29:15Well... We ain't got a clue.
0:29:15 > 0:29:20We'll have a guess at Peru and the Aztec temples.
0:29:20 > 0:29:25The Aztec temples in Peru, say Andy and Dave. The Aztec temples.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27So Lisa and Tom, the board is completely yours.
0:29:29 > 0:29:33- OK. I'm not sure about Brazil, are you?- No.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36Jordan, we think is Petra.
0:29:36 > 0:29:39Mexico is Chichen Itza.
0:29:39 > 0:29:43- Peru is Machu Picchu.- Yeah.- Maybe. What do you want to say?
0:29:43 > 0:29:47- Let's go Mexico, because we went on our honeymoon there.- OK.
0:29:47 > 0:29:50We'll say Mexico, Chichen Itza.
0:29:50 > 0:29:54Chichen Itza, say Lisa and Tom, for Mexico.
0:29:54 > 0:29:58So the Aztec temples, said Andy and Dave, for Peru.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00Let's see if that's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:30:02 > 0:30:04No. Bad luck.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06An incorrect answer, which means Chichen Itza
0:30:06 > 0:30:09only has to be correct for you, Lisa and Tom. Chichen Itza.
0:30:12 > 0:30:13Absolutely right.
0:30:18 > 0:30:195! Wow!
0:30:19 > 0:30:21APPLAUSE
0:30:25 > 0:30:285 for Chichen Itza means that Lisa and Tom, after two questions,
0:30:28 > 0:30:30- you are up one-nil. - Great answer, Lisa and Tom,
0:30:30 > 0:30:33and a lovely reason for choosing it as well.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35You were right about Jordan as well, that is Petra.
0:30:35 > 0:30:38That would have scored you 25 points.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42You were right about Peru as well, that's Machu Picchu.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44That would have scored you 30. The biggest answer up there,
0:30:44 > 0:30:47India, the Taj Mahal is one of the seven modern wonders.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50Would have scored 79. And the best answer left -
0:30:50 > 0:30:52Chichen Itza was actually the best answer on the board,
0:30:52 > 0:30:58but the statue of Christ the Redeemer would have scored you 10 points.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02Thanks very much indeed. OK, so here comes your third question.
0:31:02 > 0:31:05Andy and Dave, we need you to win a question to stay in the game.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08If Lisa and Tom win this one, they go straight through to the final.
0:31:08 > 0:31:14Our third question concerns lyrics from Every Breath You Take.
0:31:14 > 0:31:15Every Breath You Take. Richard.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18I'm about to show you five lyrics from Every Breath You Take,
0:31:18 > 0:31:21and we've left out two of the words. We've given you the initials.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24You just have to fill in those and see if you can get the most obscure.
0:31:24 > 0:31:25- Very best of luck.- OK.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28So let's reveal our five lines of lyrics, and here they come.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42I'll read those again.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50There we are. Five lines from Every Breath You Take.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52Lisa and Tom, you get to go first.
0:31:55 > 0:31:59Mmm. We're going to say "every vow you break".
0:31:59 > 0:32:03"Every vow you break," say Lisa and Tom. "Every vow you break".
0:32:03 > 0:32:06Andy and Dave. The board is yours.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08THEY CONFER
0:32:09 > 0:32:11I think they've got a good one there.
0:32:11 > 0:32:15We're going to stump at the bottom one and say "every sound you take".
0:32:15 > 0:32:18"Every sound you take". So "every vow you break",
0:32:18 > 0:32:22"every sound you take". OK. Lisa and Tom, "every vow you break",
0:32:22 > 0:32:25let's see if it's right, let's see how many people said it.
0:32:27 > 0:32:28Absolutely right.
0:32:32 > 0:32:3332.
0:32:33 > 0:32:34APPLAUSE
0:32:38 > 0:32:40Andy and David have said "Every sound you take",
0:32:40 > 0:32:43at the bottom there. "Every sound you take."
0:32:43 > 0:32:44Let's see if it's right, and if it is,
0:32:44 > 0:32:46let's see how many people said that.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51Bad luck. I'm so sorry.
0:32:51 > 0:32:54Andy and Dave, an incorrect answer, which means, Lisa and Tom,
0:32:54 > 0:32:57after three questions you are through to the final two-nil.
0:32:57 > 0:33:00- Sorry, guys. What do you think it is now?- "Every step you take".
0:33:00 > 0:33:02It is "Every step you take". Absolutely right.
0:33:02 > 0:33:06Would have scored you 29 points! AUDIENCE GROANS
0:33:06 > 0:33:09Would have got you the point there.
0:33:09 > 0:33:14"Every move you make" was the high scorer up there, that's 51.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17The fourth one down, do you know that one?
0:33:17 > 0:33:18"Every sigh you fake".
0:33:18 > 0:33:21- "Every smile you fake". - Oh, "every smile you fake".
0:33:21 > 0:33:24You could be forgiven for mishearing that. 15.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27And the best answer is "every N you S".
0:33:27 > 0:33:31"Every night you stay". 6 points.
0:33:31 > 0:33:35- So very well done if you said that. "Every night you stay".- Very good.
0:33:35 > 0:33:38Thanks, Richard. So our losing pair at the end of the head-to-head round
0:33:38 > 0:33:39I'm afraid is Andy and Dave.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41You've done so well, I'm really sorry
0:33:41 > 0:33:43that we have to say goodbye to you.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46It's been great having you on both shows, Andy and Dave.
0:33:46 > 0:33:48- Thanks very much for playing. - APPLAUSE
0:33:49 > 0:33:52But for Lisa and Tom it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58Congratulations, Lisa and Tom.
0:33:58 > 0:33:59You've seen off all the competition
0:33:59 > 0:34:01and you've won our coveted Pointless Trophy.

0:34:12 > 0:34:14£20,250 - there we are.
0:34:14 > 0:34:18APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:34:20 > 0:34:23Listen, the rules are very, very simple. To win the money,
0:34:23 > 0:34:25all you have to do is find a Pointless answer. Do that,
0:34:25 > 0:34:27and you will go home with that £20,250.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30First thing you have to choose a category. There are five options.
0:34:30 > 0:34:32Here they are.
0:34:41 > 0:34:45- Right. British actors. - British actors.- Or Welsh bands.
0:34:45 > 0:34:48- I think Welsh bands, we could be all right.- Think of Welsh bands.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50I can think of quite a lot.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52Yeah, but are you going to,
0:34:52 > 0:34:55it might be like Manic Street Preachers singles.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58- It might be, yeah. - Something like that.- It might be!
0:34:58 > 0:35:01Are you happy to take responsibility if we go for Welsh bands?
0:35:01 > 0:35:05- Not entirely.- For £20,000. - No, not entirely. Not entirely.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07What would you prefer? British actors?
0:35:07 > 0:35:10- I think British actors, with both. - OK.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12- I mean, Welsh...- No, that's fine.
0:35:12 > 0:35:16- No, because now there's so much pressure.- It's on you.
0:35:16 > 0:35:18Do whatever you want. You choose.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20AUDIENCE: Oooh!
0:35:24 > 0:35:25Come on, just choose.
0:35:29 > 0:35:32- Welsh bands. - CHEERING

0:35:37 > 0:35:39OK, Welsh bands it is. OK.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42Let's find out what the question is. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:35:42 > 0:35:45to name as many Manic Street Preachers...
0:35:45 > 0:35:47LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
0:35:47 > 0:35:50..UK top 40 singles. Richard.
0:35:50 > 0:35:53That's why you married the right man, Lisa.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55Been waiting a long time for this category.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57We're looking for any top 40 single
0:35:57 > 0:36:00released by the Manic Street Preachers up to October 2012.
0:36:00 > 0:36:04Double A sides, we'll take either answer as a correct answer.
0:36:04 > 0:36:06And collaborations count if they're named on a song.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09Looking for any Manic Street Preachers top 40 single -
0:36:09 > 0:36:11very, very best of luck, guys.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17All you need to win that £20,250
0:36:17 > 0:36:21is for just one of those answers to be Pointless.
0:36:21 > 0:36:24- Are you ready?- Yeah.- Best of luck.
0:36:24 > 0:36:26Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:36:26 > 0:36:28There they are. Your time starts now.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30I'm going to have a heart attack.
0:36:30 > 0:36:34Think one of the early ones, Faster and PCP were a double A side.
0:36:34 > 0:36:38- Right, let's say PCP.- And Faster. - And Faster.- What about, er...?
0:36:38 > 0:36:40Kevin Carter.
0:36:40 > 0:36:43- Or earlier ones, do you think? - Kevin Carter, maybe.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46There's one called like Ocean Spray, was that recent?
0:36:46 > 0:36:49- There was, it was like the cranberry juice.- OK, yeah.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52- We'll say that.- Ocean spray... - Faster...- Faster.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55- PCP.- And PCP. Do you think?
0:36:57 > 0:37:00- What was the other one you just said?- Kevin Carter.
0:37:01 > 0:37:05- Kevin Carter was quite... - What else off The Holy Bible?
0:37:05 > 0:37:08- I don't know, I don't know. I can't think!- Mausoleum?- Was that a single?
0:37:08 > 0:37:11No, I don't think so.
0:37:11 > 0:37:15Let's say Faster, PCP, and Ocean Spray. Yeah?
0:37:15 > 0:37:19- Are you happy with that? - Yeah!- Yeah!- OK.
0:37:19 > 0:37:24- We'll stop the clock, shall we? - Yeah.- OK. The clock is stopped.
0:37:24 > 0:37:28We were looking for Manic Street Preachers UK top 40 singles.
0:37:28 > 0:37:33- I now need your three answers.- OK. We've going to say
0:37:33 > 0:37:35- Faster.- Faster.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37- PCP.- PCP.
0:37:37 > 0:37:42- And Ocean Spray. - Ocean Spray.- Ocean Spray.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45- Of those three, which is your best shot at a Pointless answer?- Say PCP?
0:37:45 > 0:37:48- I think Faster.- Faster. - OK, Faster goes last.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50Which do think is your least likely? Ocean Spray?
0:37:50 > 0:37:53- Yeah, I'm not entirely sure it's right.- We'll put Ocean Spray first.
0:37:53 > 0:37:57OK, let's pop those up on the board in that order. And here they are.
0:37:57 > 0:38:01We have got. Ocean spray. PCP. And Faster.
0:38:01 > 0:38:06So we were looking for my Manic Street Preachers UK top 40 singles.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09Your first answer was your least confident shot
0:38:09 > 0:38:11at a Pointless answer. You only have to find one
0:38:11 > 0:38:14Pointless answer, remember, to win that jackpot.
0:38:14 > 0:38:1920,000. Let's just think about this. £20,250.
0:38:19 > 0:38:24Lisa, what would you do if you won £20,250?
0:38:24 > 0:38:28We've just moved house, so some furniture would be nice!
0:38:28 > 0:38:30A bed.
0:38:30 > 0:38:31Wow!
0:38:31 > 0:38:33Yeah.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35And a holiday.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38We've got two small children and we've never been on holiday,
0:38:38 > 0:38:42- so a family holiday.- OK, very good. Tom, anything else
0:38:42 > 0:38:46you'd particularly like to add to that list?
0:38:46 > 0:38:47Er...a drum kit?
0:38:47 > 0:38:49LAUGHTER
0:38:49 > 0:38:53- No. He's already got one. - It's in the garage!
0:38:53 > 0:38:56- We'll build you a drum studio. - A drum studio. There you are.- Yeah.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58There we go. Brilliant! Thank you.
0:38:58 > 0:39:02You talked yourself into that one, didn't you, Lisa? OK.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04Ocean Spray was your first answer.
0:39:04 > 0:39:06Your least confident shot at a Pointless answer.
0:39:06 > 0:39:08Let's put it to the test. Is it right,
0:39:08 > 0:39:11and if it is, is it Pointless? How many people said Ocean Spray?
0:39:11 > 0:39:13This is for £20,250.
0:39:16 > 0:39:17Ocean Spray is right.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21Now, if this goes all the way down to 0,
0:39:21 > 0:39:25you will be leaving here £20,250 richer.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Down it goes, still going down.
0:39:27 > 0:39:28Oh! 1!
0:39:28 > 0:39:30AUDIENCE GROANS
0:39:30 > 0:39:321!
0:39:32 > 0:39:35APPLAUSE
0:39:35 > 0:39:37Well done! That's amazing!
0:39:37 > 0:39:39OK, not a Pointless answer, it turns out,
0:39:39 > 0:39:41but quite an exciting result there.
0:39:41 > 0:39:45You only have two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47Two fantastic answers still on the board.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50We're looking for Manic Street Preachers UK top 40 singles.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53Let's hope nobody said your next answer, PCP.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56This has to be Pointless if you are to win the jackpot.
0:39:56 > 0:40:02So for £20,250, let's see how many people said PCP.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08It's right.
0:40:08 > 0:40:12Your first answer, Ocean Spray, took us all the way down to one.
0:40:12 > 0:40:16Your second answer, PCP, takes us down into single figures.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18Still going down. Down it goes.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20Oh! 1! 1!
0:40:20 > 0:40:22APPLAUSE
0:40:25 > 0:40:28OK. Everything is now riding on Faster.
0:40:28 > 0:40:31One more chance to win £20,250.
0:40:31 > 0:40:35We're looking for Manic Street Preachers UK top 40 singles.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37Your third and final answer was Faster.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40This was your most confident shot at that jackpot.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42It has to be Pointless to win.
0:40:42 > 0:40:48So for £20,250, let's find out if Faster is a Pointless answer.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56OK, it's right.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59Now then, we've been down to 1 twice.
0:40:59 > 0:41:03Ocean Spray was one, PCP took us to 1.
0:41:03 > 0:41:06Faster now into single figures. Down it goes. Still going down.
0:41:06 > 0:41:07Oh, no!
0:41:07 > 0:41:09AUDIENCE GROANS AND APPLAUDS
0:41:14 > 0:41:18- Oh, no!- Devastated.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20Unfortunately, you didn't manage to find
0:41:20 > 0:41:22that all-important Pointless answer,
0:41:22 > 0:41:25which means you don't win today's jackpot of £20,250.
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Which now rolls over on to the next show.
0:41:27 > 0:41:31- I mean, you've been brilliant contestants.- Thanks.- Oh, no!
0:41:31 > 0:41:33- That's got to be... - We've got the trophies. It's fine.
0:41:33 > 0:41:36- It's all about the trophies. - It's all about the trophies.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39This bit's going to really hurt. This bit's really going to hurt.
0:41:39 > 0:41:43- Richard.- OK, come on.- You genuinely choose the right category.
0:41:43 > 0:41:44Genuinely, it was a very smart move.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46Let's take a look at the Pointless ones.
0:41:46 > 0:41:50There will be some names here that you recognise.
0:41:50 > 0:41:53(It's Not War) Just The End Of Love - that's a recent one. Repeat.
0:41:53 > 0:41:57Roses In The Hospital was a Pointless answer.
0:41:57 > 0:41:59She Is Suffering was a Pointless answer.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01So Why So Sad, also a Pointless answer,
0:42:01 > 0:42:03and The Love Of Richard Nixon.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06And There By The Grace Of God.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08Guys, you were terrific throughout, I have to say.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11And in the way you choose a category and your deliberations
0:42:11 > 0:42:14you show you've got something that is more important than money anyway,
0:42:14 > 0:42:18- but I'm so sorry you didn't win it. - Thanks!- Oh, Richard!- That's lovely!
0:42:18 > 0:42:20APPLAUSE
0:42:24 > 0:42:29- And remember, you do of course get the trophy.- Hurray!- Yes!
0:42:29 > 0:42:30It's coveted, you know.
0:42:30 > 0:42:33Unfortunately, we do have to say goodbye to you, Lisa and Tom,
0:42:33 > 0:42:35it's been brilliant having you on the show.
