0:00:18 > 0:00:19APPLAUSE
0:00:21 > 0:00:25Thank you very much. I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
0:00:25 > 0:00:27the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29Let's meet today's players.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36- Our first couple.- My name's Andy.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38I'm from South Shields, live in South Shields. This is Dave.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41He's from Middlesbrough and we're both retail store managers.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44- Our second couple. - Hi, my name's Sam.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47This is my wife Charlotte and we're from Llanbedr, South Wales.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50- And our third couple.- Hi, I'm Liz.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52This is my daughter Steph and we're from Loughborough.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54And our fourth and final couple.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hello, my name's Elton and this is my little brother Tim,
0:00:57 > 0:00:59and we're from Essex.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02And these, ladies and gentlemen, are our contestants.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03APPLAUSE
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Thanks very much indeed, all of you.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10We will find out more about you as we go through the show.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12There's only one person left for me to introduce.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15We're going to see the sights of obscurity and here is your tour guide.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17It's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.
0:01:17 > 0:01:18Hiya. Hello.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25- Good afternoon.- Good afternoon. - Should be a good show today.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28The jackpot is still ramping up, isn't it? Still rammed.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31It's getting very big, and last show, we really, really nearly lost it,
0:01:31 > 0:01:34cos there was a pointless answer, on Oscar nominees,
0:01:34 > 0:01:37female Oscar nominees, and there were so many pointless answers there,
0:01:37 > 0:01:40and unfortunately, Jo and Nicky, they didn't quite hit upon
0:01:40 > 0:01:44the right ones, but I thought it was about to go, but it's still there.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Got one returning pair, that's Andy and David, who were very,
0:01:47 > 0:01:50very strong last time, so if anyone's going to nick the money,
0:01:50 > 0:01:52it could well be them.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54Question one, it's a lovely question,
0:01:54 > 0:01:56a question everyone's going to be able to have a little go at.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- Nice little question. - I like that. Thanks very much.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02All our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04Our contestants need to find the obscure answers
0:02:04 > 0:02:06those 100 people didn't get.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Everyone's looking to find a pointless answer that
0:02:08 > 0:02:11none of our 100 people knew, and each time that happens,
0:02:11 > 0:02:13we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Now, as Richard said, nobody won the jackpot last time,
0:02:16 > 0:02:20so we add another £1,000 to that, so today's jackpot starts off at...
0:02:22 > 0:02:23CHEERING
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Right. If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36OK, in this round, I want an answer from each of you,
0:02:36 > 0:02:37and there is no conferring.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40The pair with the highest score at the end of the round
0:02:40 > 0:02:43will be eliminated, so try and make sure that is not you.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Our category for round one is...
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Birds. Can you decide in your pairs who's going to go first
0:02:50 > 0:02:51and who's going to go second?
0:02:51 > 0:02:55And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:57 > 0:02:58OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Richard.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Every year, the British Ornithologists' Union produces a list
0:03:07 > 0:03:09which is all the bird species recorded in the UK.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12We're looking for any of the birds on that list,
0:03:12 > 0:03:14but Xander is about to show you six words.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18We need any bird that's on that list that contains one of the following six words, please.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21So anything on the official British list of 2012
0:03:21 > 0:03:24made by the British Ornithologists' Union that contains one of the following six words.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27- Very, very best of luck. - OK, thank you.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29As Richard mentioned, I'm going to put six words up
0:03:29 > 0:03:32on the board and they will be there throughout the whole round,
0:03:32 > 0:03:36and you have to name any bird that includes one of these words.
0:03:36 > 0:03:37OK, here they are. We have got...
0:03:44 > 0:03:46I'll read those all one last time.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52There we are. Six words. So, Andy, tell us what happened last time.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56Charles Dickens happened last time. Charles Dickens.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58You made it all the way through to the head-to-head
0:03:58 > 0:04:01and then you were clobbered in the head-to-head.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- 2-nil.- 2-nil.- Andy, remind us what you do.- Store manager.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08And you and David work in the same job but in different stores.
0:04:08 > 0:04:14- We do, about 13 miles apart?- Yeah. - OK. Now, Andy. Birds.
0:04:14 > 0:04:19- The only thing I can think of is barn owl.- Barn owl, says Andy.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Let's see if that's right, and if so, let's see how many of our 100 people said barn owl.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Absolutely right.
0:04:28 > 0:04:29Ooh! 72.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32- 72.- Yeah, very big score, isn't it, barn owl?
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Much loved British bird with the heart-shaped face.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39- That's a tough start. At least it's not 100.- Yeah. There we are.
0:04:39 > 0:04:43Charlotte, welcome. Welcome to Pointless.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46- Tell us again where you're from. - From Llanbedr in South Wales.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49- What do you do, Charlotte? - I work for a mental health charity.
0:04:49 > 0:04:55- How did you meet Sammy?- We met at university in a gig we were at.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58He was sort of jumping around wildly and fell on me
0:04:58 > 0:05:01and that was the first time we sort of said hello to each other.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04- How are you on your birds?- Not good.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08I'm thinking of something,
0:05:08 > 0:05:10but I don't know whether I've got it from the Brownies.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14- I think I'm going to go tawny owl. - Tawny owl, says Charlotte.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Let's see if tawny owl's on the list.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Let's see how many people said it.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21Absolutely right.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23It beats barn owl.
0:05:23 > 0:05:2452.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26APPLAUSE
0:05:26 > 0:05:29All going in the right direction, Charlotte.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32It's gone very owl heavy so far, this round, hasn't it?
0:05:32 > 0:05:36The Tawny owl, they're the ones that do the "twit-twoo" which we associate with all owls.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40- Ah, yes.- Also known as a brown owl, the tawny owl.- Hence the Brownies.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42I've got it. Very good.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46- OK, now then, Liz. Liz.- Yes?
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Welcome to Pointless, lovely to have you here. What do you do, Liz?
0:05:49 > 0:05:53I organise a programme of classes for adults with learning disabilities.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56Very good indeed. Whose idea was it to come on Pointless?
0:05:56 > 0:05:57Guess.
0:05:57 > 0:06:02- And you were the obvious choice to come.- We think we're a good balance.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06Very good. Which of the categories do you think you'll be covering?
0:06:06 > 0:06:10- Probably food and literature. - Excellent. Birds at all?
0:06:10 > 0:06:14- Had you banked on that? - I'm phobic to birds.
0:06:14 > 0:06:19- Get out of here. You're phobic? Any particular birds?- All of them.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Oh, no. Terrifying.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24- So...- What are you going to go for?
0:06:24 > 0:06:29- I'm going to try a bullfinch. - A bullfinch, says Liz, a bullfinch.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said it.
0:06:33 > 0:06:34Absolutely right.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Oh, down it goes, look.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40There's 20.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41APPLAUSE
0:06:45 > 0:06:47An excellent answer, a bullfinch, for 20.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Well done, Liz, best answer yet.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Bullfinch, another very common bird in the British Isles.
0:06:51 > 0:06:56- Half bird, half bull, which is what it got its name from.- Terrible.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- Thank you very much, Richard. Now, then, Elton.- Hello.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02Elton, you're from Essex. Whereabouts in Essex are you from?
0:07:02 > 0:07:05Buckhurst Hill, which is near Epping Forest.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08FAINT CHEER
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Wow, some fans in.
0:07:08 > 0:07:13- A fan's in.- It's not my mum.- What do you do, Elton?- I'm a car salesman.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17Are you now? Excellent. How are you on your birds?
0:07:17 > 0:07:20I was a Young Ornithologist many moons ago, yeah.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22So this is a walk in the park for you.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26There's got to be a pointless answer in there, Elton, surely. Surely.
0:07:26 > 0:07:27Well, I'm hoping so, yeah.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- I'm going to go for cold tit.- OK.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35Let's see if that's right and if so, how many of our 100 people said cold tit.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42It is right. Is it going to go down as low as Liz's excellent answer?
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Ooh! Almost. 21.
0:07:44 > 0:07:45APPLAUSE
0:07:46 > 0:07:4721 for cold tit.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51Another good answer. Well played.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54One of the less colourful of the tits, the cold tit.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56- Sort of brown and black. - Thanks very much.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores as they stand.
0:07:59 > 0:08:0120 very much the best score in that pass.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Liz, thank you very much for that. Well done.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Liz and Steph looking pretty safe on that, I'd say, as are Elton
0:08:06 > 0:08:08and Tim on 21.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Up to 52, where we find Charlotte and Sammy,
0:08:11 > 0:08:13and then up to 72, Andy and David.
0:08:13 > 0:08:18- You good on birds, David?- No.- Well, you've got a bit of time to learn.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Very best of luck. We're going to come back down the line now.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:08:27 > 0:08:32- OK, Tim. So, what do you do, Tim? - I'm a civil servant.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- I work for a bank.- Civil servant working for a bank.- Yeah.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39I can't really say too much cos it's quite a secure,
0:08:39 > 0:08:41James Bond-style bank.
0:08:41 > 0:08:42Oh!
0:08:42 > 0:08:44LAUGHTER
0:08:44 > 0:08:47- Wow.- Wow.- I didn't know there was a James Bond-style bank.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49I don't think we're supposed to know!
0:08:49 > 0:08:51LAUGHTER
0:08:51 > 0:08:53- Yeah.- Wow. Erm...
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Is there anything I can ask you about that?
0:08:56 > 0:08:59You've presented me with a closed door now. I'm intrigued.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01I want to know everything I can possibly know.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04What are we allowed to know on this need-to-know basis?
0:09:04 > 0:09:09- You can know where I work. - Is it in the City? It's in Essex.
0:09:09 > 0:09:10LAUGHTER
0:09:12 > 0:09:15Really? There's a James Bond bank in Essex?
0:09:15 > 0:09:16LAUGHTER
0:09:16 > 0:09:19You're literally the worst spy in the world.
0:09:19 > 0:09:20LAUGHTER
0:09:22 > 0:09:26- How are you on birds?- Uh... Not very good.- OK.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Tim, what are you going to go for?
0:09:28 > 0:09:31I would probably hazard a guess at blue tit.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Elton doesn't look thrilled with that.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Elton just looked at the sky then. OK, you're on 21.
0:09:37 > 0:09:38That's a really good score.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41The highest scorers are David and Andy on 72.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44If you could actually score 50 or less with this,
0:09:44 > 0:09:45you are straight into the next round.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48That's what 50 looks like, that red line there.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Below that, you're through. Let's see. Blue tit, is it right? How many people said it?
0:09:56 > 0:09:57Wow. 90.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00APPLAUSE
0:10:00 > 0:10:0490. That is a high score. That takes your total up to 111.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05Wow.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09That's the single most uncertain round of applause I've ever heard.
0:10:09 > 0:10:10LAUGHTER
0:10:10 > 0:10:15Cos it's right. Obviously a very common visitor to our gardens.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18- Thank you very much indeed, Richard. Now then, Steph.- Hello!
0:10:18 > 0:10:23- Steph, hello. What do you do, Steph? - I'm a university time tabler.- Oh!
0:10:23 > 0:10:27Oh, that's fun. Do you get lots of people bribing you
0:10:27 > 0:10:29so they don't have 9:00 lectures?
0:10:29 > 0:10:31Or to get home in time for Pointless.
0:10:33 > 0:10:38- Very good. How are you on your birds?- Worse than Mum.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42She didn't do badly. Worse than Mum? Everyone's worse than Mum.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44I'm really surprised!
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Listen, you are almost through. You're on 20.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50The high scorers are Tim and Elton on 111.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54That means if you score 90 or less, essentially blue tit down...
0:10:54 > 0:10:55LAUGHTER
0:10:55 > 0:11:02- ..you're through.- I'm going to play safe then and go with snowy owl.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- Snowy owl. Liz doesn't think that's safe at all!- Do you not?
0:11:06 > 0:11:08She went just like this, she went...
0:11:11 > 0:11:13That's what your red line looks like.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15If you get below that with snowy owl,
0:11:15 > 0:11:17you are through to the next round.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Let's see if it's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said snowy owl.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25It's right and you're through.
0:11:25 > 0:11:26Very, very well done.
0:11:29 > 0:11:3118, the best score so far.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33APPLAUSE
0:11:33 > 0:11:38- Well played, Steph and Liz. Lovely low total of 38.- Well played, Steph.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Harry Potter's owl, Hedwig, is a snowy owl.
0:11:41 > 0:11:46- What was your concern there? - I thought it was Canadian.- Ah.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48So long as they're seen in Britain, they appear on the list.
0:11:48 > 0:11:53Thank you very much, Richard. Now then, Sammy. Sammy, what do you do?
0:11:53 > 0:11:55I'm a pastor in a church.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57What does that involve?
0:11:57 > 0:12:00It's very much like a vicar or a minister.
0:12:00 > 0:12:07Writing sermons, studying for Bible studies, counselling people.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09So you have your own church in your parish.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13There's two of us with the same church, my boss
0:12:13 > 0:12:18and I'm his assistant, so we've got a different kind of skill set,
0:12:18 > 0:12:22so I often end up doing a lot of the administrative work, which is...
0:12:22 > 0:12:26That's fun(!) Yeah, while he gets out and does all the glad-handing.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Well, I like that. How long have you done that for?
0:12:29 > 0:12:33I've been doing it for about...18 months, I think,
0:12:33 > 0:12:35and then a few years' training before that.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Right. Fascinating. That's great.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41The highest scorers are Tim and Elton on 111.
0:12:41 > 0:12:46You're on 52, which means if you can score 58 or less, you're through.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50- How are your birds, Sammy?- All my owls have gone.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54I don't even know what one of those birds is.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57I'm going to go for...
0:12:57 > 0:13:02- a blue-breasted finch. - A blue-breasted finch.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04- Why not?- Why not? Here comes your red line.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07If you get below that red line with blue-breasted finch,
0:13:07 > 0:13:09you're through to the next round.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said blue-breasted finch.
0:13:16 > 0:13:17Bad luck, Sammy!
0:13:17 > 0:13:21I'm sorry, I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer which means
0:13:21 > 0:13:22you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27- That takes your total up to 152. Sorry.- Sorry, Sammy.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29There is a bird called a blue-breasted finch,
0:13:29 > 0:13:33it's another name for the blue waxbill, but not on this list.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36OK. Now then, David, you've had a bit of time.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38The high scorers, you were the high scorers,
0:13:38 > 0:13:40but by no means are you still.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Sammy and Charlotte now have that honour, 152 their score.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47You're on 72 so you want to be scoring 79 or less.
0:13:47 > 0:13:48Erm...
0:13:50 > 0:13:52- Great tit.- OK.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55Great tit, says David. There is your red line.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58If you get below that red line, you're through to the next round.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02Let's see if it's right, and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said great tit.
0:14:04 > 0:14:05It's right.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07And you're through. Very well done.
0:14:09 > 0:14:1140. That'll do.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Takes your total up to 112.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Well played, David. Green and yellow with a black and white head as well.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Let's look at some of the pointless answers.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24Some people really know their birds, so they would've done well on this.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26I'll take you through a few of the pointless answers.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30The eyebrowed thrush. Don't get many of them in the UK but there are some.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32The hawk owl, the penduline tit.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38- The rock thrush, the rustic bunting. That's nice, isn't it?- Yeah!
0:14:38 > 0:14:40The scarlet rosefinch.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46Tengmalm's owl, the trumpeter finch, White's thrush,
0:14:46 > 0:14:50- all of those pointless answers. Very well done if you said any of those.- Thanks very much, Richard.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54At the end of our first round, the pair who'll be leaving us with their high score of 152,
0:14:54 > 0:14:57I'm sorry, Sammy and Charlotte, it's you.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59But you were doing the right thing there, Sammy.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01I didn't have another answer to give, really,
0:15:01 > 0:15:03so tough luck, wasn't it?
0:15:03 > 0:15:06There we are. We try and encourage people to go obscure
0:15:06 > 0:15:08and you most certainly did that.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10I'm afraid this is where we say goodbye to you.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12We'll see you next time. We look forward to that.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Meantime, thanks very much for playing. Sammy and Charlotte.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17APPLAUSE
0:15:17 > 0:15:21But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Now sadly, at the end of this round, another pair will be leaving us.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31I'm wondering which pair that's going to be.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34Elton and Tim and Andy and David, not much between you.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Just one point in that last round.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40Steph and Liz, lovely low score, a total of 38. How are you feeling?
0:15:40 > 0:15:44- Fluke. It was a fluke.- Really? - Totally.- Total fluke.
0:15:44 > 0:15:45Everyone else was fluke-y that round.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49None of us, apart from Elton, obviously, are ornithologists.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51But you did very well. Lovely low score.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53Keep that up, you should be sailing through to the final.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57Best of luck to all three pairs. Our category for round two is...
0:15:59 > 0:16:02Brainboxes. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
0:16:02 > 0:16:04who's going to go second?
0:16:04 > 0:16:07And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12OK, so this question concerns...
0:16:16 > 0:16:17Mensa members. Richard.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20On each pass, we're going to give you clues to six people
0:16:20 > 0:16:23who've been reported to be members of Mensa.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26Obviously the more obscure your answer, the fewer points you'll score.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30- There's 12 in all to have a go at at home. Very best of luck.- OK.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Thanks very much, Richard. So we are looking for Mensa members described by these clues,
0:16:34 > 0:16:36and here they are. We have got...
0:16:55 > 0:16:56I'll read those all one last time.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19So there you are. Six clues to famous members of Mensa.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21Now then, David.
0:17:21 > 0:17:25Erm, I'm going to go with a comedy genius, The Man With Two Brains.
0:17:25 > 0:17:29- Steve Martin.- The Man With Two Brains and The Jerk, Steve Martin.
0:17:29 > 0:17:34Let's see if that's right and let's see how many people said Steve Martin.
0:17:35 > 0:17:36It's right.
0:17:40 > 0:17:4221.
0:17:42 > 0:17:43APPLAUSE
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Well played, David. Good answer. Steve Martin,
0:17:50 > 0:17:53an actor now more recently just plays his banjo.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56He does. That's the role he plays most often now.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58He won a Grammy in 2010 for Best Bluegrass Album.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Yeah, he's an amazing banjo player.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03- Now then, Liz.- OK. Erm...
0:18:03 > 0:18:08I know the women, so I think I'll go for Goldie Hawn, please,
0:18:08 > 0:18:10playing Private Benjamin.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Goldie Hawn, the actress who played Private Benjamin.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16Let's see if that's right and how many people said Goldie Hawn.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18It's correct.
0:18:20 > 0:18:2248.
0:18:22 > 0:18:23APPLAUSE
0:18:24 > 0:18:27- 48 for Goldie Hawn.- Well played.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29That's quite a big score there for Goldie Hawn.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32She won an Oscar at 24 for Cactus Flower, Goldie Hawn.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Mother of Kate Hudson.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36She'd be a very good answer in women who won
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Best Supporting Actress Oscars.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42- Yes. Yes.- Let me just check that's not coming up. No, it's fine.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44We're fine.
0:18:44 > 0:18:49Tim, we're looking for these famous Mensa members.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53I'd probably hazard a guess at Desert Storm being
0:18:53 > 0:18:57a World War Two officer, but the only one I know,
0:18:57 > 0:19:01and I'm probably in competition with myself to try and beat 90,
0:19:01 > 0:19:05Richard Whiteley's co-host on Countdown, Carol Vorderman.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08Richard Whiteley's co-host, Carol Vorderman.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10Let's see if that's right and how many people said Carol Vorderman.
0:19:13 > 0:19:14It's right.
0:19:17 > 0:19:1958. Not bad.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23- Richard.- As you say, it beats 90, doesn't it?
0:19:23 > 0:19:25It's the biggest answer on that board.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Now one of the Loose Women, of course. Let's go through the rest.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32- The author of the 1983 book Castaway, do you know that?- No.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Lucy Irvine would've scored five points.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38- The Army officer who commanded Operation Desert Storm?- Er...
0:19:38 > 0:19:42- Schwarzkopf.- Yeah, Stormin' Norman Schwarzkopf. Three points.
0:19:42 > 0:19:47That's the best answer on the board. And the Russian-born author? Erm...
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Asimov, Yeah, Issac Asimov, absolutely right. Nine points.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Very well done to anyone who got all six of those.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Thank you, Richard. We're halfway through the round.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Let's take a look at the scores as they stand.
0:19:57 > 0:19:5921, very much the best score of that pass, David. Very well done.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01David and Andy looking relatively strong.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04Up to 48, where we find Liz and Steph.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08Quite close to 58 are high scorers Tim and Elton.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12So, yes, Elton and Steph, I would say it might be between you two.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14But anything can happen on the next pass. Best of luck.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:20:21 > 0:20:24OK, let's put six more clues on the board.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27We are looking for Mensa members and here they are. We have got...
0:20:45 > 0:20:47I'll read those all one last time.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05There we are. Now remember, we are looking for these Mensa members.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09Elton, you're going to try and find the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Erm... I know quite a few of them,
0:21:12 > 0:21:16so the trick is to guess the one not many people had.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20So I'm going to go for inventor of the C5, Clive Sinclair.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24Clive Sinclair. Very well done. Now, you're the high scorers on 58.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27There's no red line for you. You just have to hope this is a nice, low score.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Sir Clive Sinclair, says Elton. Let's see if that's right.
0:21:30 > 0:21:31Let's see how many people said it.
0:21:34 > 0:21:35Absolutely right.
0:21:38 > 0:21:3940.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41APPLAUSE
0:21:41 > 0:21:44Not bad at all, takes your total up to 98.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48That's another pretty hefty score, isn't it, for Sir Clive Sinclair?
0:21:48 > 0:21:50They did a drama-documentary thing about him
0:21:50 > 0:21:52on BBC Four called Micro Men. Did you watch that?
0:21:52 > 0:21:54- Yeah, I did watch that. - He was played by...
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Who's that, erm...
0:21:56 > 0:21:58He was played by you, wasn't he?
0:21:58 > 0:21:59LAUGHTER
0:21:59 > 0:22:03- In sort of like a bald wig and ginger hair.- Yeah, I looked like a clown.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05LAUGHTER
0:22:05 > 0:22:08Then you went into make-up and looked like Clive Sinclair.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13Thanks very much, Richard. Now, Steph.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17Steph, the high scorers are now Elton and Tim on 98.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20You're on 48, which means if you can score 49 or less,
0:22:20 > 0:22:22you're in the head-to-head.
0:22:22 > 0:22:27I know two of them definitely and I'm pretty confident about a third,
0:22:27 > 0:22:32and I think, considering the scores, I'm going to go for the third
0:22:32 > 0:22:34and say...
0:22:34 > 0:22:38Jamie Theakston presented Live And Kicking with Zoe Ball.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40You're going to say Jamie Theakston. OK, here is your red line.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43Below that red line, head-to-head.
0:22:44 > 0:22:48Jamie Theakston. Let's see if it's right and how many people said it.
0:22:50 > 0:22:51Absolutely right.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Yep, you've done it. Very well done.
0:22:57 > 0:22:58Eight!
0:22:58 > 0:22:59APPLAUSE
0:23:01 > 0:23:03There you go. Well done. That's a great score.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Takes your total up to 56.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08That's two rounds in a row you've had the best answer.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12- Very well played. Now you and I both know Jamie very well.- Yeah!
0:23:12 > 0:23:16But a member of Mensa? Really, Jamie?
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Really?
0:23:18 > 0:23:20OK. Now then, Andy.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23The high scorers are still Elton and Tim on 98.
0:23:23 > 0:23:24You're on 21.
0:23:24 > 0:23:2776 or less is what you need to score and you're back in the head-to-head.
0:23:27 > 0:23:31- Talk us through the board, Andy. - I only know two of them.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Pulp Fiction's Quentin Tarantino,
0:23:34 > 0:23:37no idea about the Susan Sarandon film or the swimmer.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41But I think who played Drago in Rocky IV was Dolph Lundgren.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44- Dolph Lundgren.- Dolph Lundgren. - Dolph Lundgren.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Here comes your red line.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48If you go below that red line, you're back in the head-to-head.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50Dolph Lundgren. Is it right?
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Will it get Andy and David into the head-to-head?
0:23:55 > 0:23:57It's right. And yes it will. Very well done.
0:24:01 > 0:24:0311.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05APPLAUSE
0:24:05 > 0:24:0911, taking your total up to 32, our lowest score of the round.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Very, very well done, Andy. Richard.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14Another good answer. Born Hans Lundgren.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17He's got a degree in chemistry from Washington State University.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20- And now a member of Mensa. - Yeah. How about that?
0:24:20 > 0:24:22He sits on a table with Jamie Theakston.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Of course Mensa means table.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27It's the nominative single of Mensa.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30RICHARD SIGHS
0:24:30 > 0:24:31LAUGHTER
0:24:31 > 0:24:33Let's go through the rest of the board.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37You're right, it's Quentin Tarantino for Pulp Fiction, would've also seen you through.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39Would've scored 26 points.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43The 100-metre breaststroke gold was won by Adrian Moorhouse.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46Very well done if you said that. Three points. Very good answer.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48An even better answer,
0:24:48 > 0:24:50co-starred with Susan Sarandon in Thelma And Louise...
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Erm...
0:24:52 > 0:24:56- Geena Davis. - Geena Davis, absolutely right.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58That would've scored two points, so well done if you said that.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01There we are. Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04At the end of round two, the pair with the highest score who'll
0:25:04 > 0:25:06be leaving us, I'm afraid, Elton and Tim.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10You didn't do badly there, though. It was just Carol Vorderman.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12- Yeah, that was the only one I knew. - Carol Vorderman.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16Very, very high score for Carol Vorderman. It was hard to know.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19Well, there we are. We'll see you again next time, Elton and Tim.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22We'll look forward to that. Mean time, thanks very much for playing.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24APPLAUSE
0:25:24 > 0:25:28But for the remaining pairs, they're one step closer to the final and the chance of taking home
0:25:28 > 0:25:31that jackpot as we enter the head-to-head.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Congratulations, Steph and Liz, Andy and David.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41You are now only one round away from the final and a chance
0:25:41 > 0:25:44to play for that jackpot, which currently stands at...
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Clearly, only one pair can play for that money.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55To decide which pair it will be, you're now going to go head-to-head.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57This time you're allowed to confer.
0:25:57 > 0:26:01The first pair to win two questions will be playing for the jackpot.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11OK, here's your first question, and it concerns...
0:26:15 > 0:26:17James Bond film posters. Richard.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20We're about to show you five promotional film posters
0:26:20 > 0:26:23but in foreign languages. We need you to tell us
0:26:23 > 0:26:26the names of these films as they were released in Britain.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28- Most obscure wins. Good luck.- OK.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Let's reveal our five Bond posters in foreign languages.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35I'm so looking forward to this, and here they are. We have got...
0:26:48 > 0:26:52There we are, five Bond posters in foreign languages.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Steph and Liz, you've played best throughout the show,
0:26:54 > 0:26:56so you get to go first.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59(OK, A is Thunderball.)
0:26:59 > 0:27:00WHISPERING
0:27:04 > 0:27:06We're going to go for E, Dr No.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08E, Dr No.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12Dr No.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Andy and David, all those other posters are yours.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Talk us through them.
0:27:17 > 0:27:22A, we think is Thunderball and B was...
0:27:22 > 0:27:25Possibly From Russia With Love.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31C, On Her Majesty's Secret Service and D, Moonraker.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34We're going to go with B, From Russia With Love.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37B, From Russia With Love.
0:27:38 > 0:27:43B, From Russia With Love. So we have Steph and Liz say Dr No, E.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46Is that right? If it is, how many people said it?
0:27:48 > 0:27:49Absolutely right.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55Oh, it's a great answer. Look at that. Ten!
0:27:55 > 0:27:57Very, very well done indeed, Steph and Liz.
0:27:57 > 0:27:58APPLAUSE
0:28:01 > 0:28:06Andy and David have said B is From Russia With Love.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08From Russia With Love. Let's see if that's right,
0:28:08 > 0:28:12and if so, let's see how many people said From Russia With Love.
0:28:15 > 0:28:19Bad luck, Andy and David. An incorrect answer, I'm afraid, which means, Steph and Liz,
0:28:19 > 0:28:20after one question, you are up one-nil.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22- Very well done. Richard. - Well played, Liz.
0:28:22 > 0:28:25- What were the clues there for you on that poster?- Ursula Andress.
0:28:25 > 0:28:26Ursula Andress, very good.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30And guys, From Russia With Love is a Sean Connery Bond film.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33- We knew it was wrong. - It is Roger Moore.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35This is actually the best answer up there.
0:28:35 > 0:28:39Would've won you the points, but it's For Your Eyes Only.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42Five points, that would've scored. In Toedlicher Mission.
0:28:42 > 0:28:46- They're great posters, aren't they, some of those?- Yeah.- Amazing.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49A is Thunderball. That would've scored you 48 points.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53Now C I think both teams spotted.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55It's the only George Lazenby Bond film,
0:28:55 > 0:28:58so it's On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01Quite a low scorer. That would've only scored 20 points.
0:29:01 > 0:29:05And D, not Moonraker, Moonraker was a Roger Moore film
0:29:05 > 0:29:08and this is Diamonds Are Forever.
0:29:08 > 0:29:12And that would've scored 58, the biggest scorer there.
0:29:12 > 0:29:15- Very well done if you got all five of them.- Thanks very much, Richard.
0:29:15 > 0:29:16So here comes your second question.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19Andy and David, you need to win this one to stay in the game.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21It concerns...
0:29:24 > 0:29:25Irish towns and cities. Richard.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27We're going to show you five anagrams now of towns
0:29:27 > 0:29:29or cities in the Republic of Ireland.
0:29:29 > 0:29:33- Can you unscramble these and pick the most obscure?- OK, thanks very much.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35Let's reveal our five anagrams of towns and cities
0:29:35 > 0:29:38in the Republic of Ireland, and here they are. We have got...
0:29:43 > 0:29:45I'll read those all one last time.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Now then, Andy and David, you go first this time.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56THEY CONFER
0:29:56 > 0:29:58Yeah, yeah. Go with Limerick.
0:29:58 > 0:30:03- Um...the fourth one down, YAW LAG, Galway.- Galway?
0:30:03 > 0:30:07- Galway.- OK, Andy and David say Galway for YAW LAG.
0:30:07 > 0:30:08Steph and Liz?
0:30:08 > 0:30:12The only other one we know is ROCK - Cork.
0:30:12 > 0:30:17OK, so you're going to go for Cork. So we have Galway and Cork. Andy and David said Galway.
0:30:17 > 0:30:21Let's see if that's right for YAW LAG, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:30:23 > 0:30:24It's right.
0:30:27 > 0:30:30- 47. - APPLAUSE
0:30:32 > 0:30:3647 for Galway. Steph and Liz have gone for Cork for ROCK. Let's see if that's right.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38Let's see how many people said that.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42Yeah, it's right. It's a high one...
0:30:42 > 0:30:44- SCATTERED APPLAUSE - ..unsurprisingly.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47Very well done, Andy and David. That's exactly what you needed to do.
0:30:47 > 0:30:51- You're back in the game. It's 1-1. Richard.- Yeah, the two biggest scorers up there,
0:30:51 > 0:30:54Cork and Galway. YAW LAG, Galway backwards.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57Now, the other three. RICE MILK, it's Limerick.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00And that would have scored 23.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02DREW FOX. Do you know DREW FOX?
0:31:02 > 0:31:06- It's a county as well.- Oh, it's Wexford!- Wexford. Absolutely right.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09It would have scored 29. And the best answer on the board
0:31:09 > 0:31:12is ETHANOL. It would score you six points.
0:31:12 > 0:31:16Very well done everyone at home who said Athlone.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18- Ah!- Athlone, six points.
0:31:18 > 0:31:23Thank you very much indeed, Richard. OK, here comes your third question. This is the decider.
0:31:23 > 0:31:27This will decide who goes through to that final and plays for that massive jackpot. Best of luck.
0:31:27 > 0:31:28It concerns...
0:31:31 > 0:31:33Michael Schumacher. Richard.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36Five clues now to facts about Michael Schumacher.
0:31:36 > 0:31:39The team that gives us the most obscure will be going through to that final.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42Let's reveal our five clues. Here they are.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44We have got...
0:31:59 > 0:32:02I'll read those all one last time.
0:32:14 > 0:32:15Now then, Steph and Liz,
0:32:15 > 0:32:17you go first again this time.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19I know four of them.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22- It's just which one. - Which one do you want to go for?
0:32:22 > 0:32:25- I know his nationality... - No, we don't want that.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29- I know the record number of Drivers' Championships. - I think that's a good one.- Do you?
0:32:29 > 0:32:32- Mm-hm.- I know the team,
0:32:32 > 0:32:36- and I know the name of his brother. Which one do you want me to go for? - I think the record number.
0:32:36 > 0:32:41We're going to go with the record number of Formula 1 World Drivers' Championships he won,
0:32:41 > 0:32:42and it's seven.
0:32:42 > 0:32:46Seven. Seven say Steph and Liz.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49Now then. Andy and David,
0:32:49 > 0:32:52the board is yours. Talk us through the board.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54We think his nationality is German.
0:32:54 > 0:32:56The team, we think, is Ferrari.
0:32:56 > 0:33:00The former driver could be Ayrton Senna, it could be Alain Prost.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02His brother's called Ralf.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04We'll go with his brother, Ralf.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07Ralf. OK,
0:33:07 > 0:33:11so we have seven, the record number of Formula 1 World Drivers' Championships.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13He won seven, say Steph and Liz.
0:33:13 > 0:33:17Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said seven.
0:33:19 > 0:33:20It's right.
0:33:24 > 0:33:28- 16! - APPLAUSE
0:33:32 > 0:33:33Are you happy with 16?
0:33:33 > 0:33:36- Mm...- Ah. - LAUGHTER
0:33:36 > 0:33:41Andy and David have said Ralf. Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said Ralf.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45It's right.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47It has to beat 16.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49Oh, 38!
0:33:49 > 0:33:53APPLAUSE
0:33:53 > 0:33:56Bad luck, Andy and David.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58Well done, Steph and Liz. Very well done indeed.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01After three questions, you are through to the final, 2-1.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03- Richard.- Sorry, gents. Very well played, Steph and Liz.
0:34:03 > 0:34:09Now, the team with whom he won his first Formula 1 title would have scored 11 points.
0:34:09 > 0:34:10But it wasn't Ferrari.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13- It's... D'you know that one? - Benetton?
0:34:13 > 0:34:16Benetton. Absolutely right. It would have scored 11 points.
0:34:16 > 0:34:20The nationality, he's German. That's a very big scorer -
0:34:20 > 0:34:2386 points. And the former champion... It's not Prost, it's not Senna.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25It's Juan Manuel Fangio,
0:34:25 > 0:34:29and would have scored three points. Very well done to anyone who got all five of those.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32Anyone who got all 15 of them, that's very impressive.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34- Should join Mensa!- They should.
0:34:34 > 0:34:38Yeah. Thanks very much, Richard. So our losing pair at the end of the head-to-head...
0:34:38 > 0:34:42I'm sorry, Andy and David. You gave them a really good run for their money there.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45It's been great having you on the show. I'm sorry we have to say goodbye.
0:34:45 > 0:34:49Andy and David, you've been great contestants. Thanks so much for playing.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52APPLAUSE
0:34:52 > 0:34:55But for Steph and Liz, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02Congratulations, Steph and Liz, you've fought off
0:35:02 > 0:35:05all the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13You now have a chance to win our jackpot,
0:35:13 > 0:35:18and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £12,250.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26You've done so well! You've done fantastically well.
0:35:26 > 0:35:30The rules are very simple. To win the money, you have to find a pointless answer.
0:35:30 > 0:35:35Do that and you'll go home with the money. First, you've got to choose a category. These are your options.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37Good luck. They are...
0:35:44 > 0:35:45- Nordic Playwrights is a no.- No.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47Tennis Stars is a no.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49Honours is a no.
0:35:49 > 0:35:53I think it's going to have to be Film Trilogies, unless you want to go with Funky Music.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55- I haven't got a clue what Funky Music is.- Neither do I!
0:35:55 > 0:35:58It's all quite subjective, Funky Music, surely?
0:35:58 > 0:36:04- It depends what your idea of funky is.- I don't think we could trust ourselves with that.- No.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07- We're going to go with Film Trilogies, please.- Film Trilogies,
0:36:07 > 0:36:10say Steph and Liz. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:36:10 > 0:36:14We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name
0:36:14 > 0:36:19as many actors in the Jurassic Park trilogy as they could.
0:36:19 > 0:36:23- Richard.- We're looking for any actor or actress who received an acting credit
0:36:23 > 0:36:27at the end of any of the three theatrically released Jurassic Park movies.
0:36:27 > 0:36:30Any uncredited cameos, such as that by Steven Spielberg, won't count.
0:36:30 > 0:36:34So anyone who received a credit at the end of any of those three films. The very best of luck.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:36:37 > 0:36:41All you need to win that £12,250
0:36:41 > 0:36:43is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:36:43 > 0:36:48- Are you ready?- Yeah.- OK. Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51There they are. Your time starts now.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54- OK.- There has to be Jeff Goldblum. - Jeff Goldblum.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56- Richard Attenborough. - Yeah, but everybody will know them.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58- Do you know anyone else?- No.- OK.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00I think he might have to go!
0:37:00 > 0:37:03Um... Oh, I love these films!
0:37:03 > 0:37:05- Um...- Can we do the dinosaur?
0:37:05 > 0:37:07No, we can't say the dinosaur!
0:37:07 > 0:37:11- Em, hang on. Let me... - There's a little boy.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14There was a little boy and I don't know what his name is.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17And the blonde annoying girl. I don't know what her name is.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19- Is Jodie thingy in it?- Jodie who?
0:37:19 > 0:37:21- Foster?- Mm.- No.
0:37:21 > 0:37:24Um...Alan what's-his-name was in the main one.
0:37:24 > 0:37:28- Rickman?- No. Um...
0:37:30 > 0:37:33My mind's gone totally blank. I'm trying to think of the third one.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36Somebody like Adrien Brody?
0:37:36 > 0:37:39We can try Adrien Brody, if you want to.
0:37:39 > 0:37:43- Ten seconds left.- It's a guess. - It's a guess? Oh, I don't know actors at all.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46- Come on.- OK, we'll just go with those three.
0:37:46 > 0:37:48- OK.- OK, those are your answers?
0:37:48 > 0:37:50- Yeah.- Right.
0:37:50 > 0:37:54OK. Well, there's time up. We were looking for actors in the Jurassic Park trilogy.
0:37:54 > 0:37:56I now need your three answers.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Mum thinks that Adrien Brody was in it.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Adrien Brody.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02- Richard Attenborough. - Richard Attenborough.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04- Jeff Goldblum.- Jeff Goldblum.
0:38:04 > 0:38:07OK, of those three, which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:38:07 > 0:38:09- THEY SIGH - Jeff Goldblum.- None of them!
0:38:09 > 0:38:13Jeff Goldblum, we'll put him last. Which is your least likely to be pointless?
0:38:13 > 0:38:16- Attenborough.- Richard Attenborough, we'll put him first
0:38:16 > 0:38:19- and Adrien Brody in the middle! - It's a guess.- You never know.
0:38:19 > 0:38:24- It looks like him.- OK, let's pop those up on the board in that order. We have got...
0:38:30 > 0:38:33OK, so we were looking for the actors in the Jurassic Park trilogy,
0:38:33 > 0:38:35any actor from any of those three films.
0:38:35 > 0:38:39Richard Attenborough, you said, was your least confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42You only have to find one pointless answer to win that £12,250 jackpot.
0:38:42 > 0:38:47Let's see how many people said Richard Attenborough.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51It's right.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54Down it goes, through the 70s, through the 60s,
0:38:54 > 0:38:57into the 50s. Halfway.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00Into the 30s, 20... 27. OK, 27.
0:39:00 > 0:39:03APPLAUSE
0:39:05 > 0:39:07Unfortunately not a pointless answer,
0:39:07 > 0:39:10- but actually, quite surprisingly low.- Yeah, very low.
0:39:10 > 0:39:14I'd have thought he was probably the most famous actor from that trilogy. Anyway, who knows?
0:39:14 > 0:39:18But still, we can be heartened by that. Only two more chances
0:39:18 > 0:39:20to win today's jackpot.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23Now then, that's a big jackpot, Liz.
0:39:23 > 0:39:25£12,250.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28What would be the first thing you'd like to do with that?
0:39:28 > 0:39:34Well, jointly we've got a plan to go on holiday to Vegas,
0:39:34 > 0:39:41and perhaps one of my children to get into one of the little chapels there
0:39:41 > 0:39:43- and tie the knot.- Not me.- Not her.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46- Not me! - THEY LAUGH
0:39:46 > 0:39:50OK, Steph, anything else you'd like to do?
0:39:50 > 0:39:55Well, I quite fancy, on the way to Vegas, to stop off at Harry Potter Land!
0:39:55 > 0:39:58- Yeah.- That'd be pretty cool. - Very good. The very best of luck.
0:39:58 > 0:40:02We are looking for actors in the Jurassic Park trilogy. Let's hope nobody said your next answer,
0:40:02 > 0:40:05Adrien Brody.
0:40:05 > 0:40:09Of course, it has to be right as well, which it might be. Who knows?
0:40:11 > 0:40:15This has to be pointless, obviously, to win that jackpot of £12,250,
0:40:15 > 0:40:18so let's see, is Adrien Brody right, and if it is, how many people said it?
0:40:22 > 0:40:24Bad luck. An incorrect answer, I'm afraid.
0:40:24 > 0:40:27So only one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:40:27 > 0:40:31We're looking for actors in the Jurassic Park trilogy. Your final answer
0:40:31 > 0:40:36was Jeff Goldblum. This one you thought was your best shot at a pointless answer. So let's see.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39Jeff Goldblum. It has to be pointless for that jackpot to be won.
0:40:39 > 0:40:43So, for £12,250, how many people said Jeff Goldblum?
0:40:46 > 0:40:48Well, it's right.
0:40:48 > 0:40:51Now, Richard Attenborough took us all the way down to 27.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54How far down is Jeff Goldblum going to take us?
0:40:54 > 0:40:57He's going down through the 30s and the 20s... Oh, 22!
0:40:57 > 0:40:59APPLAUSE
0:41:02 > 0:41:04- Never mind!- Well, two good answers
0:41:04 > 0:41:09in there, but unfortunately, you didn't manage to find that vital pointless answer,
0:41:09 > 0:41:12so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £12,250,
0:41:12 > 0:41:15which rolls over onto the next show. But you have been fantastic contestants,
0:41:15 > 0:41:19and you get to take home our Pointless trophy, so very well done.
0:41:19 > 0:41:21APPLAUSE
0:41:23 > 0:41:26Unlucky. You played very well. There's not many big scorers there.
0:41:26 > 0:41:30You've seen two of the biggest scorers. Sam Neill and Laura Dern also scored quite high.
0:41:30 > 0:41:34Not pointless, though. People like Samuel L Jackson would have scored two points.
0:41:34 > 0:41:39Vince Vaughn would have scored one point. Pete Postlethwaite and Julianne Moore both scored three.
0:41:39 > 0:41:43Adrien Brody wasn't in it, but he was in King Kong, which might have been where the confusion was.
0:41:43 > 0:41:47There are similarities to the two films. Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51Alessandro Nivola played Billy Brennan.
0:41:51 > 0:41:55Ariana Richards played the granddaughter. You were talking about the grandkids.
0:41:55 > 0:41:59Bob Peck, a famous British actor, was the gamekeeper in the first one.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02The other grandkid was Joseph Mazzello, the grandson.
0:42:02 > 0:42:06Martin Ferrero, Michael Jeter, both of those pointless answers.
0:42:06 > 0:42:10Richard Schiff, perhaps better known as Toby Ziegler from The West Wing.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13Tea Leoni, also a pointless answer. Very well done if you said that.
0:42:13 > 0:42:17And Wayne Knight. You may not know the name, but you'd recognise him.
0:42:17 > 0:42:21He's in Seinfeld, 3rd Rock From The Sun. Very well done if you said any of those at home.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23And tough luck, you played very well.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26There we are. Unfortunately we do have to say goodbye to you, Steph and Liz,
0:42:26 > 0:42:31but it's been wonderful having you on the show. You've done so well. Thanks for playing. Steph and Liz!
0:42:31 > 0:42:34APPLAUSE
0:42:34 > 0:42:38So, Steph and Liz didn't win our jackpot today, which means it rolls over onto the next show
0:42:38 > 0:42:41when we will be playing for £13,250.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43- AUDIENCE:- Whoo!
0:42:43 > 0:42:47- Join us then to see if someone can win it. Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Richard...- Goodbye.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
