0:00:14 > 0:00:16APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:26Thank you. I'm Alexander Armstrong, and a warm welcome to Pointless,

0:00:26 > 0:00:30the show where obvious answers mean nothing and obscure answers mean everything.

0:00:30 > 0:00:33Let's meet today's players.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Couple number one...

0:00:37 > 0:00:41Hi, I'm Ed and this is Fiona and we're friends from university.

0:00:41 > 0:00:42Couple number two...

0:00:42 > 0:00:47Hi, I'm Tom, this is David, we're half-brothers and grew up in London and Bristol mostly.

0:00:47 > 0:00:48Couple number three...

0:00:48 > 0:00:51I'm Emma, this is my fiance Chris and we're from Bristol.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53And couple number four..

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Hello again. I'm David from Westcliff-on-Sea

0:00:56 > 0:00:58and this is my favourite nephew Ryan, from Worthing.

0:00:58 > 0:01:02And these, ladies and gentlemen, are today's contestants.

0:01:02 > 0:01:04APPLAUSE

0:01:04 > 0:01:08There we are. Thank you all. We'll find out more about you throughout the show.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12There's one person to introduce, rooting around in the dustbins of obscurity

0:01:12 > 0:01:14like an inquisitive grisly bear -

0:01:14 > 0:01:18if he does give chase, throw him your packed lunch and play dead until he gets bored or goes away -

0:01:18 > 0:01:21- it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23Hi, everybody.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29- Afternoon.- And to you, yes.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Goodness me, the jackpot just keeps going up and up and up, doesn't it?

0:01:32 > 0:01:37We're going to be looking at somebody who's going to go away with an awful lot of money.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39It could be today and it could be one of you.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43Ooh, that's exciting! Not that it isn't otherwise, but it is a very exciting thought.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46All our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.

0:01:46 > 0:01:51All our contestants need to do is find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.

0:01:51 > 0:01:55Everyone's looking for a pointless answer, which none of our 100 people could get.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57Each time that happens, we add £250 to the jackpot.

0:01:57 > 0:02:01Erik and Joe didn't win last time so we add another £1,000 to that.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05Today's jackpot starts off at £23,500.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08AUDIENCE CHEER

0:02:10 > 0:02:13Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20I'll take an answer from each of you but there's no conferring.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24Whichever pair has the highest score will be eliminated.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Try and make sure that's not you, if you can.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29Our first category today is...

0:02:31 > 0:02:32OK. Airports.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first?

0:02:36 > 0:02:39Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43Let's find out what the question is.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:02:50 > 0:02:52..as they could. Richard.

0:02:52 > 0:02:57We need you to give the name of any city that houses one of the world's busiest airports,

0:02:57 > 0:03:03that's any airport that has over 30 million passengers a year.

0:03:03 > 0:03:07There's 45 airports in the world that have over 30 million passengers.

0:03:07 > 0:03:11We're asking for any city that houses any of those airports, please.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13OK. There we are.

0:03:13 > 0:03:17So any city which is home to any airport in the world

0:03:17 > 0:03:21that handles more than 30 million passengers a year.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Now, welcome to the show, Ed.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27- Great to have you. What do you do? - I'm a medical student.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30- Whereabouts are you studying? - Oxford.- Right. OK.

0:03:30 > 0:03:34- How did you and Fiona meet? - Er, we met in dire circumstances.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37- Oh, I'm sorry!- It was a bus crash.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40We were on our way to ski trip in the Alps,

0:03:40 > 0:03:44and on the M25 our bus crashed into a lorry.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46It was in the middle of the snow,

0:03:46 > 0:03:49and we had to jump out onto the motorway in our pyjamas.

0:03:49 > 0:03:54- What were you doing on a bus in your pyjamas? - It was three in the morning!

0:03:54 > 0:03:57- 17-hour coach...- OK.- Yes.

0:03:57 > 0:03:58But you met on the hard shoulder.

0:03:58 > 0:04:02- Yes.- I think she was in the row behind me.- Very good.

0:04:02 > 0:04:06- Are you an item or just friends? Sorry.- Just friends.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08- So far... Phew! Excellent. - LAUGHTER

0:04:08 > 0:04:12Maybe by the end of the next show, if they get to the final...

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Imagine if Ed comes up with a cracking answer now,

0:04:15 > 0:04:19a belter, a real knee-melter of an answer...

0:04:19 > 0:04:21That's what he needs. LAUGHTER

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Ed,

0:04:23 > 0:04:26- erm, airports?- Airports.- Airports.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28I think I'll go for Hong Kong.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31- Hong Kong, says Ed. OK. Hong Kong. - Safe answer.

0:04:31 > 0:04:35Let's see if Hong Kong's right and how many people said Hong Kong.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38It's absolutely right.

0:04:42 > 0:04:4411, Ed.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47- APPLAUSE - 11, Ed. Very good.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49Hong Kong.

0:04:50 > 0:04:55Well played, Ed. The tenth busiest airport in the world. 53 million passengers a year.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Now then, Tom.- Hi. - Welcome to the show.

0:04:58 > 0:05:02- What do you do?- I'm a supply teacher in primary schools.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04- You teach anything? - Anything at all, yes.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08Anything they want to ask me, I've hopefully got an answer.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12- If you haven't, just make one up. - Exactly.- What do they know?

0:05:12 > 0:05:15- Now, airports...- Airports.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18I think I'll play it a little bit safer and go Mexico City.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Mexico City, says Tom. Mexico City.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Let's see if it's right and how many people said it, if it is.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Ooh, Tom, bad luck.

0:05:30 > 0:05:35I'd have thought, easily, 30 million people flew in and out of Mexico City!

0:05:35 > 0:05:36It's a massive city, certainly.

0:05:36 > 0:05:40Anyway, an incorrect answer. It scores you 100 points. Sorry.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43- I'm amazed. Are you amazed?- Yes!

0:05:43 > 0:05:46I would've thought that would be over 30 million. It's 26 million.

0:05:46 > 0:05:50It is one of the 100 biggest, but not over 30 million.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52- That's unfortunate, isn't it? - Isn't it?

0:05:52 > 0:05:55- I think that's an honorary good answer!- Thank you.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57I'll take that!

0:05:57 > 0:06:00- Chris.- Hello! - Welcome back to the show.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03- Remind us what you do.- I'm a civil servant. I work for the MOD.

0:06:03 > 0:06:07- He's not allowed to tell us what it is he does. - He didn't even say MOD last time.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11- We're getting a bit closer! - That's really given it away.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14Most of the airports you use, I presume, are not on the map.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17- That's basically the case, yes! - Definitely!

0:06:17 > 0:06:21Anyway, Chris, using your knowledge of international travel,

0:06:21 > 0:06:26we'd like the name of any city whose airport handles more than 30 million passengers a year.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29Struggling a little bit, but I'm thinking Singapore, maybe,

0:06:29 > 0:06:32for anyone on the way to Australia. Don't they stop there?

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Singapore, says Chris.

0:06:34 > 0:06:38Let's see if that's right and how many people said Singapore.

0:06:38 > 0:06:44Absolutely right. 11 is our best score so far.

0:06:44 > 0:06:45Down it goes. Still going down.

0:06:45 > 0:06:49Ooh, you beat 11. Look at that! 6! Very well done indeed.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Very well done.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58Well done. It's a huge hub airport. An awful lot of flights go through it.

0:06:58 > 0:07:02- It's a cool airport. - It's an amazing airport!

0:07:02 > 0:07:05It's got a rooftop pool. It's got everything.

0:07:05 > 0:07:06Now then,

0:07:06 > 0:07:09David G, welcome back to the show.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12David, airports... Airports!

0:07:12 > 0:07:15Well, I've done the maths because I had a bit of time,

0:07:15 > 0:07:21so 30 million people, you're looking at about 7.5 million people...

0:07:21 > 0:07:24No, I worked out 750,000 people it works out at per day.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26- I've done the maths. - LAUGHTER

0:07:26 > 0:07:30It's 2.5 million a month, then you divide that by the week,

0:07:30 > 0:07:35so you want something just over 700,000, and I came up with Dubai, which is huge.

0:07:35 > 0:07:39You could've just come up with Dubai, which is huge!

0:07:39 > 0:07:44I forget it's a short programme! I'll shut up and give Dubai as my answer.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47- You're going to go with Dubai? - Absolutely.- Dubai.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51Let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 said Dubai.

0:07:51 > 0:07:55It's absolutely right, David. Good reasoning.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Down it goes. 11 is our score to...

0:07:58 > 0:08:03Oh, 4! Best score of the round! Very well done!

0:08:03 > 0:08:05APPLAUSE

0:08:05 > 0:08:09- It was worth the wait, wasn't it? - It was worth its weight in gold!

0:08:09 > 0:08:11There we are. Well done. Dubai.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14Well played, David. Over 50 million passengers a year. 4 points.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17That's the square of two. It's also the square root of 16.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21- That's the cube root of 64, as well. - What about that?

0:08:21 > 0:08:22Unpack it any way you like!

0:08:22 > 0:08:24It worked! It worked!

0:08:24 > 0:08:27We are like minds, David. Don't worry about that.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31Thank you, Richard. Let's take a look at the scores.

0:08:31 > 0:08:344, the best score of the round. David, very well done.

0:08:34 > 0:08:376, the next best score, Chris and Emma.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40Up to 11, where we find Ed and Fiona

0:08:40 > 0:08:43and Tom and David H, I'm afraid, a long way out in front with 100.

0:08:43 > 0:08:48As these obvious airports are being picked off, maybe there'll be an incorrect answer.

0:08:48 > 0:08:54David, a really good low score from you might just keep you in the game. Best of luck with that.

0:08:54 > 0:08:58Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:09:00 > 0:09:02We are looking for any city with an airport in it

0:09:02 > 0:09:05that handles more than 30 million passengers a year.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Ryan, welcome back to the show. Good to have you here.

0:09:08 > 0:09:13- Remind us what you do, Ryan. - I work for a pharmaceutical company that treats allergies.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16Very good indeed. What are your hobbies?

0:09:16 > 0:09:19I like to go to the cinema quite a lot with my wife,

0:09:19 > 0:09:23just keep active, play a bit of football, get out on the mountain bike.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26Now then, Ryan, you're on 4, David H and Tom are on 100.

0:09:26 > 0:09:30If you can score 95 or less, you are through to the next round.

0:09:30 > 0:09:34I haven't got a calculator behind here so I haven't done any maths!

0:09:34 > 0:09:36But I did fly to America once.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40We got off the plane and it was half an hour transferring just to the terminal,

0:09:40 > 0:09:44it was a big airport, so hopefully Miami is good enough.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Miami, says Ryan.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Here is your red line. It's lovely and high.

0:09:49 > 0:09:50We just have to hope Miami is right

0:09:50 > 0:09:54and if it is, let's see how many people said Miami.

0:09:55 > 0:10:00Absolutely right! You are through to Round Two. Very well done indeed.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03David scored 4. What are you going to score? 2!

0:10:03 > 0:10:06Very well done indeed!

0:10:06 > 0:10:11Fantastic teamwork on podium four. Your total is 6.

0:10:11 > 0:10:15Miami International Airport. Very good answer. 38 million passengers a year.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18They've also got Burrowing Owls who live on the airfield.

0:10:18 > 0:10:19- They've got a Burrowing Owl?- Yes.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22And they're a protected species.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25That's got to be a worry for them, any kind of birdlife on a runway.

0:10:25 > 0:10:29I can't see that ending well, for either the aeroplane or the bird in question.

0:10:29 > 0:10:34But owls tend not to, er, they're not big daytime fliers.

0:10:34 > 0:10:38Nor, at all times, are aeroplanes. They fly at all hours.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Planes are not allowed to fly between certain hours

0:10:41 > 0:10:45and those hours are the hours that owls are allowed to fly.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48So it's quite a detailed schedule of when the owls...

0:10:48 > 0:10:53Air traffic control, it's a nightmare for them! They've got so many things to deal with.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55Air traffic control at 11.30 at night,

0:10:55 > 0:10:58hand over to the RSPCA. LAUGHTER

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Interesting. Very good. Thank you.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05- Now then, Emma, welcome back to the show.- Thank you.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08You did very well last time. Some great answers.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11You're looking pretty good at this stage of the round, as well.

0:11:11 > 0:11:146 is your score. 100 the high score.

0:11:14 > 0:11:1893 or less sees you through to the next round.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20How are we feeling about these airports?

0:11:20 > 0:11:25Erm, I wasn't feeling too great but I am thankful for Chris for getting us a good start.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28So I'm going to play what I think is safe

0:11:28 > 0:11:30and say Delhi.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33- Delhi.- Mm.- OK. Delhi, says Emma.

0:11:33 > 0:11:38Let's see if Delhi's right and if it is, let's see how many people said Delhi.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41It's right. You're through.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Down it goes. Still going down.

0:11:46 > 0:11:482!

0:11:48 > 0:11:50Joint-lowest score of the round, Emma. Very well done indeed.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54- 8 is your total. - APPLAUSE

0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Emma and Chris looking very strong again.- Aren't they just?

0:11:57 > 0:12:01Indira Gandhi Airport in New Delhi.

0:12:01 > 0:12:06We'd like the name of any city whose airport than handles more than 30 million passengers a year.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09Now then, David H, welcome to the show.

0:12:09 > 0:12:12- What do you do, David? - I'm a student in Bristol,

0:12:12 > 0:12:15doing a masters in international relations.

0:12:15 > 0:12:19Just general international relations. That's a massive course!

0:12:19 > 0:12:21- It is, yes!- Wow!

0:12:21 > 0:12:23In a funny way, maybe it includes airports.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26- Not so much? - I'm not sure it's helping me here.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28- So we're in a bit of a pickle. - Yes...

0:12:28 > 0:12:32So it's a bit of a risk, but I'm hoping it will be right

0:12:32 > 0:12:37because it's big and maybe people go on the way to other places, I'm going to say Kuala Lumpur.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Kuala Lumpur. Kuala Lumpur, says David.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43Let's see if that's right and how many people said Kuala Lumpur.

0:12:43 > 0:12:47There's no red line for you because you're the high scorers.

0:12:47 > 0:12:52That's a very good answer. I have a feeling this will go a long way down.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56Oh, look at that!

0:12:56 > 0:12:59It goes all the way down! It's a pointless answer.

0:12:59 > 0:13:05It adds £250 to our jackpot. It takes the total up to £23,750.

0:13:05 > 0:13:10It scores you nothing and it leaves your total at 100.

0:13:10 > 0:13:15I wonder if it's enough to keep you in the game, though. But brilliant.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17Great work, David. Congratulations.

0:13:17 > 0:13:22Opened in 1998. It's got marble floors throughout, Kuala Lumpur Airport.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25- That's pretty good, isn't it? - Very good. Thank you.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27OK, now then, Fiona, what do you do?

0:13:27 > 0:13:32- I'm a student at Oxford, as well. - What are you studying? - Human sciences.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34- What year are you in?- Third year. - Right you are.

0:13:34 > 0:13:39- How long ago was this fateful crash? - Three years ago, in my first year.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42As you as good friends with everyone else on the coach?

0:13:42 > 0:13:45- Yes, I think there was a bond between all of us.- Very good.

0:13:45 > 0:13:50So, Fiona, you need to be scoring 88 or less

0:13:50 > 0:13:54to avoid becoming the high scorers and leaving us at the end.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57I think I'm going to play it pretty safe and say Frankfurt.

0:13:57 > 0:14:01- I think it's a major hub in Europe.- Frankfurt, says Fiona.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03Here's your red line. It's nice and high.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06Let's see how many people said Frankfurt.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09It's right and you're through.

0:14:13 > 0:14:16Oh, it's a great answer! Very well done. 8.

0:14:16 > 0:14:20- 8, taking your total up to 19. - APPLAUSE

0:14:20 > 0:14:24Well played, Fiona. It's the ninth busiest in the world. Terrific answer.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28- I think Ed is definitely interested. - Oh, yes. Yes, yes, yes!

0:14:28 > 0:14:30- Don't you think?- Of course.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33But it ain't up to Ed. That's not the way it works, is it, in this world?

0:14:33 > 0:14:37- It's very much up to Fiona to make her mind up.- Yep. Yep.

0:14:37 > 0:14:42Let's take a look at some pointless answers, see if you got any at home. I hope you did.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Detroit in America, Guangzhou in China, used to be Canton.

0:14:46 > 0:14:50Houston. The airport there is the George Bush Intercontinental Airport.

0:14:50 > 0:14:54Istanbul would've been a great answer. Kuala Lumpur was a terrific answer. David, well done.

0:14:54 > 0:14:59Las Vegas, McCarran Airport. Plenty of people will have been through there.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02Minneapolis, another big hub airport in the States,

0:15:02 > 0:15:04Mumbai would've been a terrific answer. Seattle.

0:15:04 > 0:15:08There's a few more you could've had. You could've had Charlotte, in the US,

0:15:08 > 0:15:12Incheon in South Korea, Philadelphia, Phoenix or San Francisco.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Those were all the pointless answers.

0:15:14 > 0:15:18Let's look at the biggest scorers that most of our 100 people gave.

0:15:18 > 0:15:23Paris would've scored you 29, New York would've scored you 45

0:15:23 > 0:15:27and, perhaps unsurprisingly, London at the top. But 47 is quite a low score.

0:15:27 > 0:15:32Thanks, Richard. So the losing pair who'll be leaving us, with their high score of 100,

0:15:32 > 0:15:35it's the brothers, David and Tom.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38I'm sorry we have to say goodbye to you so soon. We'll see you again next time.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42David and Tom, everyone. Great contestants.

0:15:43 > 0:15:47But for the three remaining pairs, it's time for Round Two.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54Now, there's only going to be room for two pairs in our head-to-head

0:15:54 > 0:15:58so one of the pairs in front of me, sadly, will be leaving us.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Ed and Fiona, you're our newcomers!

0:16:00 > 0:16:05Look at these grizzled old veterans, they've been here before!

0:16:05 > 0:16:08But you, you just stepped straight through to Round Two.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11- How are you feeling? - Pretty good, I think.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14Keep up the good work. Our category for Round Two is...

0:16:16 > 0:16:20It's People. Decide in your pairs who's going first and second.

0:16:20 > 0:16:24Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29The question concerns...

0:16:32 > 0:16:35Famous People With Surnames Beginning With B.

0:16:35 > 0:16:39We're going to give you six clues to famous people whose surnames begin with B.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42Give us a nice obscure one for fewer points.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44An incorrect answer gives 100 points.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47There's 12 famous people to guess in all. Good luck.

0:16:47 > 0:16:52We are looking for famous people whose surnames begin with B. Here is our first board.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13I'll read those all one last time.

0:17:30 > 0:17:34There we are. Six people whose surnames begin with B.

0:17:34 > 0:17:38Fiona, you get pick of the board.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40It's not my strongest board!

0:17:40 > 0:17:43I'm going to take a gamble because I think Ed will be good at this.

0:17:43 > 0:17:47I'm going to say that the composer was Benjamin Britten.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49Benjamin Britten, says Fiona. Let's see if that's right,

0:17:49 > 0:17:53let's see how many people knew that answer.

0:17:55 > 0:17:56Very good.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03- 8, Fiona! That's a great score. - APPLAUSE

0:18:05 > 0:18:08- Well done. 8 for Benjamin Britten. - Good answer, Fiona.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10It was written for the new Coventry Cathedral,

0:18:10 > 0:18:13built to replace the one that was bombed in WWII.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15- Emma...- OK.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18Well, I know a couple.

0:18:18 > 0:18:22I'm sure of one and I think I know a couple more.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26I will go for "Known as The Godfather of Soul"

0:18:26 > 0:18:30- as James Brown. - James Brown, says Emma.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34Let's see if that's right and how many people knew that answer.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43- 26. - APPLAUSE

0:18:45 > 0:18:4726 for James Brown.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49Buried in a 24-carat gold coffin.

0:18:49 > 0:18:53- Classy.- That's classy, isn't it? - Yes.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Ryan, the board is yours.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58Talk us through all the Bs left on that board.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00I'm struggling a bit.

0:19:00 > 0:19:04I only know two prisoners with the surname beginning with B

0:19:04 > 0:19:07- and one of them's Ronnie Barker. - LAUGHTER

0:19:07 > 0:19:10So I'm going to say, er,

0:19:10 > 0:19:12Ronnie Biggs.

0:19:12 > 0:19:18You're going to say Ronnie Biggs, the "prisoner portrayed by Tom Hardy in 2008".

0:19:18 > 0:19:22Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said Ronnie Biggs.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25Bad luck, Ryan. I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer,

0:19:25 > 0:19:28which scores you the maximum of 100 points. Richard.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31Sorry, Ryan. Good guess, though. Good guess.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34He actually played the infamous prisoner Charles Bronson.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37Would've scored 2 points, so terrific answer.

0:19:37 > 0:19:41The writer of Fahrenheit 451 - do you know that?

0:19:41 > 0:19:42- That's Ray Bradbury.- Ray Bradbury.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44Would've scored you 13.

0:19:44 > 0:19:48The biggest answer by some way is the bottom one,

0:19:48 > 0:19:51Shirley Bassey. Would've scored you 57.

0:19:51 > 0:19:54- And wrote Waiting For Godot? - Samuel Beckett.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57Absolutely right. It would've scored you 16.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59OK. Thanks, Richard.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03Let's take a look at those scores. 8 the best score of that pass, Fiona and Ed.

0:20:03 > 0:20:0526, Emma and Chris, very well done.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08And then 100 points for Ryan and David G.

0:20:08 > 0:20:13David G has pick of the board. You have to choose very carefully and hope somebody makes a mistake.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15We're going to come back down the line now.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18Can the second players please step up to the podium?

0:20:20 > 0:20:25We'll put six clues on the board to people with surnames beginning with B.

0:20:25 > 0:20:26Here they are.

0:20:45 > 0:20:46I'll read those one last time.

0:21:04 > 0:21:09We're looking for the names of these people whose surnames begin with the letter B.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12David, you need to find a really low-scoring one.

0:21:12 > 0:21:16I'll keep it short and sweet. Revolutionary Engineer Born 9th April 1806,

0:21:16 > 0:21:19I'll go for Isambard Kingdom Brunel.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said it.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25No red line for you, as you're the high scorers.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28It's absolutely right.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33Down it goes. 28.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36- 128 your total. - APPLAUSE

0:21:37 > 0:21:42Isambard Kingdom Brunel. He used to smoke 40 cigars a day.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45- Really? - That is going at some, isn't it?

0:21:45 > 0:21:47- Really?- Yes.- Wow.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51Now then, Chris... Chris...

0:21:51 > 0:21:54- How do we feel about this board? - Terrible.

0:21:54 > 0:21:59I'm not sure about a single answer on that board, only the one that David's just had.

0:21:59 > 0:22:03The only one I can hazard a guess at is the "Father of Jeff Bridges".

0:22:03 > 0:22:07Is that Wayne Bridges? I don't think it is. I'm sure that's a footballer!

0:22:07 > 0:22:10- But it's the best answer I've got. - LAUGHTER

0:22:10 > 0:22:13Wayne Bridges, says Chris. There's no red line for you.

0:22:13 > 0:22:17You're already through. But let's see, is Wayne Bridges Jeff Bridges' dad?

0:22:21 > 0:22:23- I'm afraid he's not. - I'm so surprised!

0:22:23 > 0:22:27It scores you 100 points and takes your total up to 126.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30Couldn't matter less. You're already through to the head-to-head.

0:22:30 > 0:22:34- Sorry, Chris. Wayne Bridge is a footballer.- OK.

0:22:34 > 0:22:38- If there were two of them, they'd be Wayne Bridges.- There you are.

0:22:38 > 0:22:44Ed, the same good news applies to you. You are also through to the head-to-head.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46Very lucky with that because...

0:22:46 > 0:22:49- I think you could talk us through this board.- I don't think I could.

0:22:49 > 0:22:53- Really?- No. I don't know any of them, really.

0:22:53 > 0:22:58I don't know. Er, 15th President of the United States,

0:22:58 > 0:23:00Andrew Brown.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02LIGHT LAUGHTER

0:23:02 > 0:23:05Andrew Brown, the 15th President of the States.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08Let's see if that's right, shall we? There's no red line for you.

0:23:08 > 0:23:12Andrew Brown, is it right? How many people said it?

0:23:14 > 0:23:16Bad luck. An incorrect answer.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19Scores you 100 points. Takes your total up to 108.

0:23:19 > 0:23:23Sorry, Ed. I think the top two are pretty easy

0:23:23 > 0:23:28- but, apart from that, it's quite a tough board.- I knew some of those.

0:23:28 > 0:23:32Marlon Brando for the top one. Is it Beau Bridges for "Father of Jeff"?

0:23:32 > 0:23:36You're right about Marlon Brando. He would've scored you 39.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39You're wrong about Beau Bridges. That's his brother.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43Lloyd Bridges is the father. Would've scored 13 points.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46The 15th President of the United States was James Buchanan.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Well done if you got that. 3 points.

0:23:48 > 0:23:53Currer Bell is one of the Brontes. It's Charlotte. Scored 9 points.

0:23:53 > 0:23:57And Ellen Burstyn would've been a pointless answer.

0:23:57 > 0:23:58Well done if you said that at home.

0:23:58 > 0:24:03Thank you, Richard. Our losing pair, with their score of 128,

0:24:03 > 0:24:07- is David and Ryan.- Not to worry. It's only a game, isn't it?

0:24:07 > 0:24:11- It is, but we will miss you. You'll be missed.- We'll miss you.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13Aww! That's nice!

0:24:13 > 0:24:15We will miss you and your explanations,

0:24:15 > 0:24:20and your dress sense, as well, which has certainly made an impact.

0:24:20 > 0:24:24David and Ryan, it's been lovely having you on the show. Thank you for playing.

0:24:25 > 0:24:29The two remaining pairs are about to get one step closer to the final

0:24:29 > 0:24:31and a chance of taking home that jackpot,

0:24:31 > 0:24:34as we enter the head-to-head.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Congratulations.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42You're one round away from the chance to play for our jackpot,

0:24:42 > 0:24:47which currently stands at a record-breaking £23,750.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49AUDIENCE CHEER

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Only one pair can play for that money.

0:24:53 > 0:24:57To decide which pair it will be we're going to go head-to-head.

0:24:57 > 0:25:02You are allowed to confer. The first pair to win two questions will be playing for the jackpot.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05This is nice. We get to play Cupid, in a way.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07- It's lovely, isn't it?- It's nice.

0:25:07 > 0:25:10Emma and Chris have yet to sort out a date to get married

0:25:10 > 0:25:14and, er, Ed and Fiona have got to get it together.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17- Ed and Fiona - it's the love story of the century.- Waiting to happen.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20- It's like Wills and Kate.- Oh! Yes!

0:25:20 > 0:25:24Don't you think? They met at uni, didn't they?

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Yes, exactly. Can I just check - are you both single?

0:25:27 > 0:25:29Yes!

0:25:29 > 0:25:31VARIOUS IN AUDIENCE: Whoo!

0:25:31 > 0:25:3323,500 is...

0:25:33 > 0:25:36That's quite an incentive, isn't it? Isn't it?!

0:25:36 > 0:25:39Let's call it an aphrodisiac. Let's call it that!

0:25:39 > 0:25:45- Richard...- It's a hell of a date if you win £23,750 at the end of it!

0:25:45 > 0:25:48- Isn't it?!- That has gone well. - I'll say.

0:25:48 > 0:25:51- Money can't buy you love.- No... AUDIENCE: Aww!

0:25:51 > 0:25:55All right! I know it can't! LAUGHTER

0:25:55 > 0:25:57Although it can...

0:25:57 > 0:26:00But you know what, it doesn't harm love, does it?

0:26:00 > 0:26:02LAUGHTER

0:26:03 > 0:26:06Let's play the head-to-head.

0:26:11 > 0:26:15OK, here comes your first question and it concerns...

0:26:16 > 0:26:19TV Mothers and Daughters. Richard.

0:26:19 > 0:26:22We'll show you five pictures of famous TV mothers and daughters.

0:26:22 > 0:26:26We need you to tell us the name of the TV show they are taken from.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28Let's reveal our mother and daughters.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31Here they are. We have got...

0:26:46 > 0:26:50There we are. Five TV mothers and daughters.

0:26:50 > 0:26:52We need the shows they're taken from.

0:26:52 > 0:26:56Ed and Fiona, because you've played best throughout the show, you get to go first.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59- A, I think, is Desperate Housewives. - Yes, it is.

0:26:59 > 0:27:02(B is Golden Girls.)

0:27:02 > 0:27:03- (Shall we go for C?)- (Yes.)

0:27:03 > 0:27:07- (B would be better - Golden Girls.) - (No, we know C.)

0:27:07 > 0:27:10- We're going to go for C, which is... - It's 24.

0:27:10 > 0:27:1424. C, 24, say Ed and Fiona.

0:27:14 > 0:27:18Now then, Emma and Chris, the rest of the board is yours.

0:27:18 > 0:27:20OK. Erm...

0:27:20 > 0:27:25Only because I recognise one of the ladies in A, I think it's Desperate Housewives.

0:27:25 > 0:27:29D, Coronation Street and E, Absolutely Fabulous.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31C, I didn't know.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35And I think B is The Golden Girls.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39- Which are you going to go for? - Sorry. B.- B, The Golden Girls.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41Emma and Chris say B, The Golden Girls.

0:27:41 > 0:27:44Ed and Fiona have said 24 for C.

0:27:44 > 0:27:4824. Let's see if that's right and how many people said 24.

0:27:50 > 0:27:52It is right.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57It's a good answer. Look at that.

0:27:57 > 0:28:00- Very good answer! 4! - APPLAUSE

0:28:04 > 0:28:05Very well done indeed.

0:28:05 > 0:28:09Emma and Chris have said The Golden Girls for B.

0:28:09 > 0:28:14Let's see if that's right and let's see how many people said The Golden Girls.

0:28:14 > 0:28:16It's right.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19Is it going to beat 4? Ooh, no! 47.

0:28:19 > 0:28:2147 for The Golden Girls.

0:28:21 > 0:28:26Which means, Ed and Fiona, after one question, you are up 1-0.

0:28:26 > 0:28:28Well played, Ed and Fiona. "A" is Desperate Housewives.

0:28:28 > 0:28:33It would've been a lower scorer than Golden Girls, actually. 13 points.

0:28:33 > 0:28:36Nothing you could've done to beat 24. It's the best score up there.

0:28:36 > 0:28:41D was Coronation Street. That would've scored 59.

0:28:41 > 0:28:45And E, Absolutely Fabulous, scores less than The Golden Girls.

0:28:45 > 0:28:47That would've scored you 45.

0:28:47 > 0:28:51- Maybe she doesn't look exactly like Saffy in that picture.- Maybe.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54Thank you, Richard. Here comes your second question.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56Emma and Chris, you have to win this to stay in the game.

0:28:56 > 0:28:59It concerns...

0:29:00 > 0:29:02LAUGHTER

0:29:02 > 0:29:06Brilliant. Bingo Calls.

0:29:06 > 0:29:11- Richard.- Didn't Emma and Chris say on the last show that they love going to bingo?

0:29:11 > 0:29:14But they don't do that any more, the old-fashioned bingo calls.

0:29:14 > 0:29:17- It's all serious now!- Really? - Really.- Really?

0:29:17 > 0:29:22- Mm...- We're about to give you five bingo calls, but we've left out one of the words of the calls.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25Can you fill in those gaps, please?

0:29:25 > 0:29:29Let's reveal our five bingo calls. Here they are.

0:29:29 > 0:29:30We have got...

0:29:41 > 0:29:43I'll read those all again.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50Now then, Emma and Chris, this could be crucial here.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53- You get to go first. - Have you got any ideas?

0:29:53 > 0:29:55I know the obvious ones.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57It's rhyming, isn't it?

0:29:57 > 0:30:00So it's going to be "Between The..." something.

0:30:00 > 0:30:04We're not so sure on any of these. There's some obvious ones up there.

0:30:04 > 0:30:09I think we'll go with the top one. Is it "Tweak of the Thumb" 51?

0:30:09 > 0:30:12"Tweak of the Thumb" 51. Thumb, say Emma and Chris.

0:30:12 > 0:30:17Now then, Ed and Fiona, the board is now yours. How are we feeling about this?

0:30:17 > 0:30:21I used to work as a bingo caller so I'm pretty confident with this!

0:30:21 > 0:30:24- LAUGHTER - Wow.- Wow. How about that?

0:30:24 > 0:30:26- How about that? - Dirty Gertie, number 30.

0:30:26 > 0:30:30Two Little Ducks, number 22. I can't remember 86, which is very annoying.

0:30:30 > 0:30:32And Two Fat Ladies, number 88.

0:30:32 > 0:30:35We're going to go for Dirty Gertie, number 30.

0:30:35 > 0:30:37Dirty Gertie, number 30.

0:30:37 > 0:30:41- Did you know that one, Emma and Chris?- No.- But it's obvious now.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44Emma and Chris have gone for Tweak of the Thumb.

0:30:44 > 0:30:48Let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people said Tweak of the Thumb.

0:30:49 > 0:30:52It's absolutely right.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59- 8! - APPLAUSE

0:31:00 > 0:31:048 for Tweak of the Thumb. You need to win this question. Maybe that will have done it.

0:31:04 > 0:31:07Dirty Gertie, say Ed and Fiona.

0:31:07 > 0:31:12Let's see if that's right for 30. Let's see how many people said it.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14It's absolutely right.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17Is it going to give Tweak of the Thumb a run for its money?

0:31:17 > 0:31:20Down it... Ooh, no. 26.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22APPLAUSE

0:31:22 > 0:31:25Emma and Chris, you're back in the game. Very well done.

0:31:25 > 0:31:30- After two questions, it's 1-1. - Well played, Emma and Chris. Terrific answer.

0:31:30 > 0:31:33Two Little Ducks. That would've scored you 69.

0:31:33 > 0:31:38Two Fat Ladies would've scored you 89.

0:31:38 > 0:31:40Between the...? It rhymes with 86.

0:31:40 > 0:31:44Between the Sticks - 86. That would've scored you 12 points.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47Tweak of the Thumb is an unbeatable answer.

0:31:47 > 0:31:51Dirty Gertie is sometimes known as Burlington Bertie, as well.

0:31:51 > 0:31:54Here comes your third question. This is the decider.

0:31:54 > 0:32:00This could be very, very important. £23,750 riding on this.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03Our third question concerns...

0:32:06 > 0:32:10- Richard.- We're going to show you five clues to facts about Brad Pitt.

0:32:10 > 0:32:14The team that gives us the most obscure answer goes through to that jackpot round.

0:32:14 > 0:32:16Very best of luck, both teams.

0:32:16 > 0:32:20OK. Let's reveal our five clues. Here they come. We have got...

0:32:35 > 0:32:37I'll read those all one last time.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55There we are. Five clues to facts about Brad Pitt.

0:32:55 > 0:32:57Ed and Fiona, you go first.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00(The top one's a film called 12 Monkeys.)

0:33:00 > 0:33:04- (No, it's Seven.)- (Oh, yes. OK.)

0:33:04 > 0:33:05THEY WHISPER

0:33:05 > 0:33:09We're going to go for the first one. The film was called Seven.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12Seven. Seven, say Ed and Fiona.

0:33:12 > 0:33:17- Emma and Chris?- That was one of the only two that we really know.

0:33:17 > 0:33:20We're going for the bottom

0:33:20 > 0:33:22- and saying Benjamin.- OK. Benjamin.

0:33:22 > 0:33:26So, the 'number' titled 1995 film, Seven,

0:33:26 > 0:33:28and the 'Button' he played, Benjamin.

0:33:28 > 0:33:31So, Seven, say Ed and Fiona.

0:33:31 > 0:33:35Let's see if that's right and how many people said Seven.

0:33:36 > 0:33:38It's right.

0:33:41 > 0:33:43Ooh, 28. 28 for Seven.

0:33:43 > 0:33:47What do we think about that?

0:33:47 > 0:33:52- You'd have liked that to have gone a bit further down, ideally. - We didn't know much else, though!

0:33:52 > 0:33:55Emma and Chris, Benjamin Button, you have said.

0:33:55 > 0:33:58Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.

0:33:58 > 0:34:02This will decide who stays and plays for that jackpot.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05It's right.

0:34:05 > 0:34:0828 is what you have to beat.

0:34:08 > 0:34:12- Ooh, 39 for Benjamin Button. - APPLAUSE

0:34:16 > 0:34:20Which means, Ed and Fiona, after three questions, you are through to the final 2-1.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22- Very well played indeed. - Well played, Ed and Fiona.

0:34:22 > 0:34:26The other three answers up there would've won you the points.

0:34:26 > 0:34:30Perhaps the easiest one, he starred alongside Edward Norton in Fight Club.

0:34:30 > 0:34:34It would've scored you 12 and would've seen you through.

0:34:34 > 0:34:38He was born in Oklahoma. That would've scored you 2 points.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40He's looking good for 50-odd, isn't he?

0:34:40 > 0:34:42- Isn't he? Yes.- That's not bad.

0:34:42 > 0:34:45And the city where he married Jennifer Aniston was Malibu.

0:34:45 > 0:34:48That would've scored you 1. That's the best answer up there.

0:34:48 > 0:34:49Thanks very much.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52Our losing pair at the end of the head-to-head,

0:34:52 > 0:34:55I'm afraid it's Emma and Chris. Oh, dear!

0:34:55 > 0:34:57I'm really sorry we have to say goodbye to you.

0:34:57 > 0:35:01It's been great having you. Through to the head-to-head on each occasion.

0:35:01 > 0:35:05Again, really good performance in that head-to-head. It could've gone either way.

0:35:05 > 0:35:07Very, very close call on that last question.

0:35:07 > 0:35:11Brilliant play. Thanks so much for playing. Emma and Chris. Lovely contestants.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17But for Ed and Fiona, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:20 > 0:35:22Congratulations, Ed and Fiona!

0:35:22 > 0:35:27You fought off all the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37The jackpot stands at...

0:35:39 > 0:35:41AUDIENCE CHEER

0:35:45 > 0:35:46Two students from Oxford,

0:35:46 > 0:35:50Ed, a medic, and Fiona, reading human sciences.

0:35:50 > 0:35:54What would you like to see come up? You know they're quite specific, don't you?

0:35:54 > 0:35:58- I'm quite good on my African flags! - LAUGHTER

0:35:58 > 0:36:00That's quite a niche topic!

0:36:00 > 0:36:04- African flags...- African capitals, as well.- That's good.

0:36:04 > 0:36:07The African Nation in general would be quite useful!

0:36:07 > 0:36:11- Ed?- Bones would be good. I can name a lot of bones.- Bones!

0:36:11 > 0:36:16Very best of luck. Great to have you here. Well done.

0:36:16 > 0:36:17I think you're in there, Ed.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20- LAUGHTER - Er, the rules are very simple.

0:36:20 > 0:36:22All you have to do is find a pointless answer.

0:36:22 > 0:36:26Do that and you will go home with £23,750.

0:36:26 > 0:36:30First, you have to choose a category. Here are your options.

0:36:37 > 0:36:41Actresses is possibly the best for me. Everything else is rubbish.

0:36:41 > 0:36:44I can do Classical Music just about, but I'm not that good.

0:36:44 > 0:36:48I don't know anything about classical music, Formula 1 or ships.

0:36:48 > 0:36:50American Novelists would be a push.

0:36:50 > 0:36:54- What do you think? How good are you on actresses? I know a few.- I know a few.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57- Actresses. - We'll go for Actresses, please.

0:36:57 > 0:36:59- You're going to go for Actresses. - Yep.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01Let's find out what the question is.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:37:05 > 0:37:08..as they could.

0:37:08 > 0:37:11- Richard. - We're looking for any feature film, made for cinema release,

0:37:11 > 0:37:16for which Reese Witherspoon has received an acting credit, up to the beginning of November 2012.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19No TV films, short films, documentaries or end-credited cameos.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22Voice performances do count.

0:37:22 > 0:37:26Huge jackpot, guys. Very, very best of luck.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29Thanks. You have up to one minute to come up with three answers.

0:37:29 > 0:37:34All you need to win that £23,750

0:37:34 > 0:37:36is for just one answer to be pointless.

0:37:36 > 0:37:40- Are you ready?- BOTH: Yes. - Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.

0:37:40 > 0:37:42Your time starts now.

0:37:42 > 0:37:46Legally Blonde, Walk The Line, erm, Cruel Intentions.

0:37:46 > 0:37:50- Cruel Intentions 2?- Yes. Erm... - Legally Blonde 2.

0:37:50 > 0:37:53Erm... Is there any animated films? She must be...

0:37:53 > 0:37:59I feel like she's in a Bugs Bunny film. Like she's Jessica Rabbit in something. Maybe not.

0:37:59 > 0:38:02- Er... - There's nothing a bit more specific?

0:38:02 > 0:38:05- Any animated films? Come on!- Er...

0:38:05 > 0:38:07- Up? WALL-E?- Hop!

0:38:07 > 0:38:10Hop's quite... There's a few people in Hop.

0:38:10 > 0:38:13- Flushed Away? - No, she's not in Flushed Away.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16Erm... Do you know anything about Hop? Er...

0:38:16 > 0:38:19Cruel Intentions, Cruel Intentions 2.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21Erm...

0:38:25 > 0:38:27- I can't think of any.- No.

0:38:27 > 0:38:30SHE SIGHS

0:38:32 > 0:38:36- 10 seconds left. - Any old ones or really recent ones?

0:38:36 > 0:38:40No. Nothing much. Cruel Intentions, Cruel Intentions 2.

0:38:40 > 0:38:43- Hop.- Walk The Line.- OK.

0:38:43 > 0:38:47OK, that's time up. We were looking for Reese Witherspoon Films.

0:38:47 > 0:38:50- I now need your three answers.- Hop, because I think it's wrong.- Hop.

0:38:50 > 0:38:54- Cruel Intentions 2.- Cruel Intentions 2.- As a last one.- Yes.

0:38:54 > 0:38:59- And in between, Walk The Line? These are all awful answers. - Walk The Line.

0:38:59 > 0:39:03Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:39:03 > 0:39:07- Cruel Intentions 2. But she might not even be in it! - We'll put that last.

0:39:07 > 0:39:10- And your least likely to be pointless?- Hop.- Hop.

0:39:10 > 0:39:13- Which is a bit of a stab in the dark.- Very much so!

0:39:13 > 0:39:17Let's pop them up on the board in that order. We have got...

0:39:20 > 0:39:23We were looking for Reese Witherspoon Films.

0:39:23 > 0:39:28Hop, you said, was your least likely shot at a pointless answer.

0:39:28 > 0:39:32Only one has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot of £23,750.

0:39:32 > 0:39:36Let's see how many people said Hop. Is it right?

0:39:38 > 0:39:40No.

0:39:40 > 0:39:44An incorrect answer. That's fine. Hop was only holding a place there.

0:39:44 > 0:39:46Only two more chances to win today's jackpot

0:39:46 > 0:39:49of £23,750.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52Ed, what would you do with that? What would be a priority for you?

0:39:52 > 0:39:55Erm, I could spend it on a trip away.

0:39:55 > 0:40:00I'm going to Sri Lanka this summer to do my paediatrics, so I could buy some flights.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03But it's a lot more money than that! I don't know what we're going to do!

0:40:03 > 0:40:05- Have a big party.- Yes, a big party. - Yes.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08- Fiona, how about you? - Pay off all my student loans

0:40:08 > 0:40:12and have a profit left over. How exciting!

0:40:12 > 0:40:13Maybe go travelling.

0:40:13 > 0:40:17I'm going to be unemployed next year, so take some time out!

0:40:17 > 0:40:21Good stuff. Let's hope one of these two remaining answers will win that jackpot.

0:40:21 > 0:40:23We are looking for Reese Witherspoon Films.

0:40:23 > 0:40:27Your next answer, Walk The Line,

0:40:27 > 0:40:29has to be pointless for you to win that jackpot.

0:40:29 > 0:40:32For £23,750, let's see how many people said...

0:40:32 > 0:40:35..Walk The Line.

0:40:35 > 0:40:40Well, it's right. If this goes all the way down to the bottom,

0:40:40 > 0:40:44a record-winning £23,750 will be yours.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47Down it goes. Still going down. Into single figures...

0:40:47 > 0:40:49- Just! 9! - APPLAUSE

0:40:53 > 0:40:569 for Walk The Line.

0:40:56 > 0:40:58It's a great answer, really good low score,

0:40:58 > 0:41:01however, we're only interested in pointless answers.

0:41:01 > 0:41:06You have one more chance to win today's jackpot. We are looking for Reese Witherspoon Films.

0:41:06 > 0:41:11- Your third and final answer, your most confident shot at a jackpot... - I don't think she's in it.

0:41:11 > 0:41:13..of £23,750,

0:41:13 > 0:41:15was Cruel Intentions 2.

0:41:15 > 0:41:17What if it's right?!

0:41:19 > 0:41:21In my wildest dreams!

0:41:21 > 0:41:25Let's find out. Cruel Intentions 2. Is it right? Is it pointless?

0:41:25 > 0:41:30It has to be both of those things for you to win that jackpot of £23,750.

0:41:30 > 0:41:32Let's find out.

0:41:33 > 0:41:35Ohh! Bad luck!

0:41:35 > 0:41:38- Bad luck! - APPLAUSE

0:41:40 > 0:41:42I'm so sorry,

0:41:42 > 0:41:46I'm afraid you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer,

0:41:46 > 0:41:49so you don't win today's jackpot of £23,750,

0:41:49 > 0:41:51which rolls over onto the next show.

0:41:51 > 0:41:55But you have been brilliant. You've played consistently well.

0:41:55 > 0:41:59You do, of course, get to take home our Pointless trophy. Very well done.

0:41:59 > 0:42:01APPLAUSE

0:42:06 > 0:42:10Cruel Intentions 2 was straight-to-video. She wasn't in it, either, I'm afraid.

0:42:10 > 0:42:13Cruel Intentions would've scored you 12 points.

0:42:13 > 0:42:17Let's look at some of the pointless answers. Hopefully, none will be familiar.

0:42:17 > 0:42:20A Far Off Place was a pointless answer. Jack The Bear.

0:42:20 > 0:42:23Overnight Delivery. It's a rom-com she did with Paul Rudd.

0:42:23 > 0:42:28A couple that people might've got... The brilliant Pleasantville with Tobey Maguire. Terrific film.

0:42:28 > 0:42:32The Importance of Being Earnest, with Judi Dench and Colin Firth.

0:42:32 > 0:42:34- Do you remember that? - I watched it in the cinema.

0:42:34 > 0:42:38And The Trumpet of the Swan, which was an animated film.

0:42:38 > 0:42:43It sounds as if you knew a couple. It's so tough in 60 seconds. I'm sorry.

0:42:43 > 0:42:48We have to say goodbye to you. It's been brilliant having you on. Thank you for playing.

0:42:48 > 0:42:51- Great contestants. Ed and Fiona... - APPLAUSE

0:42:52 > 0:42:55Ed and Fiona didn't win our jackpot, which means it rolls over.

0:42:55 > 0:43:00On the next show, we will be playing for £24,750.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02AUDIENCE CHEER

0:43:02 > 0:43:04Join us then to see if someone can win it!

0:43:04 > 0:43:06- Meanwhile, goodbye from Richard... - Goodbye.

0:43:06 > 0:43:09- ..and goodbye from me. Goodbye. - APPLAUSE
